Terms and Conditions of Plan Offer
1 PARTICIPATION
Participation in the Plan is open on the same terms to all shareholders ( Eligible Members ) who, as at close of trading on the record date of Tuesday, 2 December 2014, are registered holders of ordinary shares in Genetic Technologies Limited ACN 009 212 328 ( Company ) and who have an address (as recorded in the Company’s register of members) in Australia or New Zealand.

The Plan is established pursuant to Australian Securities and Investments Commission ( ASIC ) Regulatory Guide 125 and Class Order 09/425. That Class Order grants the Company relief from the requirement to prepare a prospectus for the offer of New Shares under the Plan.
Participation in the Plan is optional and by accepting the offer to purchase New Shares under the Plan, each holder agrees to be bound by the terms and conditions of the Offer and the Company’s constitution.
The maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under this Offer will be 233,606,959 (subject to rounding), being equivalent to approximately 30.0% of the Company's fully paid ordinary shares currently on issue as at the date of this Offer.
The Company also reserves the right (in its absolute discretion) to scale back applications should aggregate demand exceed $3,153,694 in subscriptions under this Plan. Excess subscription monies will be refunded (without interest) as soon as reasonably practicable.

No brokerage, commissions, stamp duty or other transaction costs will be payable by Shareholders in respect of the application for and issue of the New Shares under the Plan.
As the Company’s share price may increase or decrease between the date the Offer is made under the Plan and the date when the New Shares are allotted and issued to applicants under the Plan, the price paid by a member for the New Shares under the Plan may be higher or lower than the share price at the time of the Offer or at the time the New Shares are issued and allotted to the applicant.
The minimum value of New Shares for which each Eligible Member may subscribe under this Offer is $2,500 and the maximum value of New Shares for which each Eligible Member may subscribe is $7,500 (subject to scale back described further below).

4 HOW TO APPLY FOR NEW SHARES
The Offer to participate in the Plan opens on Friday 5 December 2014
An offer to participate in the Plan may be accepted by a registered Eligible Member ( Acceptance ) by completing and returning the personalised offer and application form (Application Form) provided by the Company, together with the appropriate payment for the amount to which the Acceptance relates (by cheque in Australian dollars drawn on an Australian bank made payable to “ Genetic Technologies Limited SPP Account ”), by no later than the Offer closing date of Monday, 22 December 2014 ( Closing Date ). Application Forms received after that time will not be accepted.
Acceptance includes making payment using the BPAY facility offered by Computershare Investor Services Pty. Limited, but only via the customer reference number as described on your personalised Application Form, by no later than the Closing Date (in which case the Application Form need not be returned to the Company).
If Acceptance (via BPAY) or one or more Application Forms are received from an Eligible Member in relation to shares with a value greater than $7,500, the Eligible Member holder will be issued with the maximum number of New Shares permitted by the Plan (subject to any scaling back by the Company in accordance with this Offer). The difference between the subscription moneys received from such member, and the number of New Shares allocated to that member multiplied by the Issue Price, will be refunded to the Eligible Member by cheque, without payment of any interest, as soon as reasonably practicable following allotment of all the New Shares.
5
If an Eligible Member subscribes for an amount which is not exactly divisible by the Issue Price for the shares, in calculating the number of shares to be issued, all fractional entitlements will be rounded down to the next whole share.
Notwithstanding any other provision in these terms and conditions, the Board may, in its sole discretion, reject any Acceptance Form which is received from ineligible members or otherwise which:
-
(a) is incomplete, incorrectly filled out or accompanied by a cheque which is not paid in full on first presentation; or
-
(b) which the Board believes is completed by a person within, or a person acting for the account or benefit of a person within, another jurisdiction where, in the reasonable opinion of the Board, it would be unlawful or impractical for the Company to issue the New Shares.
If a cheque is not cleared through the banking system, the member’s Application Form will not be accepted and the member will be deemed to agree to be responsible for any dishonour fees or other costs incurred. If a cheque is dishonoured, that dishonoured cheque will not be represented.
Once submitted, applications for New Shares under the Plan cannot be withdrawn or amended.
Shareholders should consult their taxation or investment advisers to clarify the financial and taxation implications for them in subscribing for shares under the Plan.
5 SCALE BACK
The Company intends to raise a maximum of $3,153,694 via the Plan and reserves the right (in its absolute discretion) to scale back subscription applications should total demand exceed $3,153,694. Any scale back of applications will be done on a pro-rata basis for all applications received.
The difference between the subscription moneys received from each Eligible Member, and the number of New Shares allocated to each Eligible Member multiplied by the Issue Price, will be refunded to member by cheque, without payment of any interest, as soon as reasonably practicable.
6 ISSUE OF NEW SHARES
The New Shares to be issued pursuant to the Offer under the Plan will be issued as soon as reasonably practicable after the Closing Date and the Company will apply for those shares to be quoted on the ASX.
The Company will, within the period required by the ASX Listing Rules, send each participant (whose Application Form has been accepted by the Company) a holding statement in respect of any New Shares issued to the participant under the Plan.
Shares issued under the Plan will rank equally with all existing ordinary shares in the Company and will therefore carry the same voting rights, dividend rights and other entitlements as those ordinary shares from the date of issue.
6
7 EXCLUDED APPLICANTS
A shareholder who alone or with its associates would obtain an interest in more than 20% of the issued voting shares of the Company may be ineligible to accept (part or all of) an offer under the Plan. The Company reserves the right to refuse an application if the applicant (alone or with its associates) would obtain an interest in more than 20% of the issued voting shares of the Company.
In the event that an application is adjusted, the Company will refund to the applicant by cheque without interest the between the application monies received by the Company and application monies payable for the number of shares actually issued to the applicant.
8 NO SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL REQUIRED
The Company is not required to seek the approval of Shareholders in relation to the offer of New Shares under the Plan.
9 AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN
The Board may, in its absolute discretion, amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time (including, without limitation, by extending the Closing Date). The Company will notify ASX of any amendment, suspension or termination of the Plan, but failure to do so will not invalidate the amendment, suspension or termination.
The Company may issue to any person fewer shares than subscribed for under the Plan (or none at all) if the Company believes that the issue of those shares would contravene any law or the ASX Listing Rules or the Corporations Act 2001.
10 ADMINISTRATION AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
The Company’s principal objective in administering the Plan is to facilitate maximum participation consistent with compliance with ASIC Class Order CO 09/425 and all applicable laws and efficient administrative practices.

The Company reserves the right (subject to the Corporations Act 2001 and ASIC Class Order 09/425) to waive compliance with any provision of these terms and conditions.
