Chairman’s Letter
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION OR RELEASE IN THE UNITED STATES
Monday, 27 August 2018
Dear Shareholder,
This is a very exciting time for Primary and for me personally, as I take on the role of Chair of this great company.
‐ Primary has a unique network of large scale multi disciplinary medical centres, pathology laboratories and diagnostic imaging centres which are central to our integrated health services strategy. We play a vital role in the delivery of accessible care to Australians.
Since joining Primary last September Dr Malcolm Parmenter, our Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, has introduced a new purpose, mission and values and led a detailed review of every aspect of the business. This has delivered a clear vision of where Primary is heading and what it will take to get us there.
==> picture [113 x 144] intentionally omitted <==
We are committed to delivering excellence in healthcare and to maximising value creation for our shareholders by providing accessible, high-quality, consumer-centric services in frontline community care.
Our vision and commitment come at a time when the sector is going through a period of significant change. Increasingly consumers are demanding better ways of accessing healthcare when, where and how they want it, aided by technology. At the same time both the costs of, and demands for, care are growing.
Those who provide a solution which combines clinical excellence, outcomes-based care, and cost-effective consumer-friendly service within a community setting will succeed.
Primary intends to lead this charge and position itself at the forefront of the industry. To do so requires transitioning from a legacy operating model to one specifically engineered for today and the future.
On 20 August we announced our results for the year ending 30 June 2018 along with a capital raising program for $250 million. Together with the free cash flow generated from the business, this capital will provide us with the financial flexibility to fund new and accelerated strategic growth initiatives to enable Primary to achieve its vision.
In our medical centre portfolio, the following initiatives will be implemented over the next three years to drive a substantial increase in GP capacity and patient services:
-
Modernisation, improvement and extension to the current service offering at 52 medical centres;
-
Implementation of a digital operating platform to support online appointments and drive significant operating efficiencies; and
-
A multi-faceted people and recruitment strategy designed to establish Primary as a workplace of choice and attract and retain healthcare professionals.
8 Chairman’s Letter
Complementing the medical centre initiatives will be investment in technology for Pathology to modernise this business, providing a platform to support future growth.
Pathology will receive a new Laboratory Information System ( LIS ) that will be rolled out over the next five years, replacing the existing 25 year-old systems across all Primary’s collection centres and laboratories, with a new single integrated platform. The new LIS will deliver many clinical and operational benefits, including improved pre-analytical accuracy and business intelligence, faster turn-around times and the ability to grow our market share in areas of higher margin complex testing.
LIS will complement the roll out of our new radiology information system and new picture archiving and communication solution in the imaging division, which will deliver substantial efficiencies and enhance the way the division interacts with referrers and their patients.
Within Primary’s existing network, the new and accelerated strategic growth initiatives will collectively achieve a substantial improvement in patient capacity and service.
Primary expects that, on completion, these initiatives will deliver material operational and clinical benefits as well as a significantly enhanced financial performance with a target return on investment of greater than 15% from these projects.
Again, looking to the future needs of consumers, we are in exclusive negotiations to acquire an established, high-quality profitable operator of specialist day hospitals.[1] This potential acquisition provides opportunities for synergies, and when combined with Primary's five existing day surgery facilities, provides a scale platform to further grow Primary's non-Medicare funded revenues.
On behalf of the Primary Board, I invite you to consider this investment opportunity and thank you for your continued support.
Regards,
==> picture [146 x 42] intentionally omitted <==
Robert Hubbard Chairman
1 The acquisition is not guaranteed to proceed and is subject to the negotiation of binding agreements and completion of due diligence. If binding agreements are entered into, they will likely be subject to a number of customary conditions precedent to closing.

Details of the Entitlement Offer
Primary has recently announced an underwritten 1 for 5.21 accelerated non-renounceable pro rata entitlement offer of new Primary ordinary shares ( New Shares ) at an offer price of $2.50 per New Share ( Offer Price ) to raise approximately $250 million ( Entitlement Offer ).
Proceeds from the Entitlement Offer will be used by Primary to fund strategic growth initiatives and a potential acquisition (if it proceeds), as further described in the ASX Announcement.
The Entitlement Offer comprises an institutional component to raise approximately $157 ( Institutional Entitlement Offer ), and a retail component to raise approximately $93 ( Retail Entitlement Offer ). The Entitlement Offer is underwritten.
The Institutional Entitlement Offer was successfully completed on Tuesday, 21 August 2018, receiving strong support from existing institutional shareholders. The Retail Entitlement Offer opens on Monday, 27 August 2018 and closes at 5.00pm on Friday, 7 September 2018.
The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable and therefore Entitlements will not be tradeable on the ASX or any other exchange, or otherwise transferable. This means that Eligible Retail Shareholders (as defined in Section 1 of this Retail Information Booklet) who do not take up their Retail Entitlements will not receive any value for those Retail Entitlements and their proportionate interest in Primary will also be diluted.
Eligible Retail Shareholders are entitled to subscribe for 1 New Share at the Offer Price for every 5.21 existing ordinary shares in Primary ( Primary Shares ) held at 7.00pm on Wednesday, 22 August 2018 ( Record Date ) ( Retail Entitlement ).
The Offer Price of $2.50 per New Share represents a discount of 17.8% to the theoretical ex-rights price ( TERP ) of Primary Shares of $3.04[2] on 17 August 2018.
How to apply
Accompanying this Retail Information Booklet is your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, which contains details of your Retail Entitlement and how to apply. You may also apply online at https://primaryhealthcareretailoffer.thereachagency.com.
To participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer, you need to ensure that you have paid your Application Monies by BPAY, or lodged your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form with your Application Monies paid by cheque, bank draft or money order, so that they are received before 5.00pm on Friday, 7 September 2018.
Further information
Further information on the Retail Entitlement Offer is detailed in this Retail Information Booklet. You should read this Retail Information Booklet in full before deciding whether to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer. In particular, you should read and consider the risk factors outlined in the “Key Risks” section of the enclosed Investor Presentation.
For further information on the Entitlement Offer, please call the Primary Health Care Limited Entitlement Offer Information Line on 1300 850 505 (within Australia) or on +61 3 9415 4000 (outside Australia) at any time from 8.30am to 5.00pm Monday to Friday during the Retail Entitlement Offer Period. You can also go to Primary’s website at www.primaryhealthcare.com.au.
2 TERP is the theoretical price at which Primary Shares should trade immediately after the ex-date for the Entitlement Offer. The TERP calculation has been calculated on an ex-dividend basis to reflect that shares issued under the Entitlement Offer will not qualify for the FY18 dividend. TERP is a theoretical calculation only and the actual price at which Primary Shares traded immediately after the ex-date for the Entitlement Offer depended on many factors and may not have been equal to TERP.

New Shares issued under the Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and rank equally with Primary Shares from issue, however, New Shares will not be entitled to the final FY18 dividend of 5.5 cents per share.
3.3. Consequences of not accepting all or part of your Retail Entitlement
If you do not accept all or part of your Retail Entitlement in accordance with the instructions set out in this Retail Information Booklet, those New Shares that you would have otherwise been entitled to under the Retail Entitlement Offer (including New Shares that relate to the portion of your Entitlement that has not been accepted) will be acquired by the Underwriters or any subunderwriters.
By allowing your Retail Entitlement to lapse, you will forgo any exposure to increases or decreases in the value of the New Shares had you taken up your Retail Entitlement and you will not receive any value for your Retail Entitlement. Your proportionate interest in Primary will also be diluted.
3 Where fractions arise in the calculation of a Retail Entitlement, the Retail Entitlement will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares.

3.4. Nominees
The Retail Entitlement Offer is being made to all Eligible Retail Shareholders. Nominees with registered addresses in the eligible jurisdictions, irrespective of whether they participate under the Institutional Entitlement Offer, may also be able to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer in respect of some or all of the beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Primary Shares, provided that the applicable beneficiary would satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder.
Nominees and custodians which hold Primary Shares as nominees or custodians will have received, or will shortly receive, a letter from Primary. Nominees and custodians should consider carefully the contents of that letter and note in particular that the Retail Entitlement Offer is not available to:
-
beneficiaries on whose behalf they hold Primary Shares who would not satisfy the criteria for an Eligible Retail Shareholder;
-
Eligible Institutional Shareholders who received an offer to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (whether they accepted their Entitlement or not); or
-
Ineligible Institutional Shareholders who were ineligible to participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer.
Due to legal restrictions, nominees and custodians may not send copies of this Retail Information Booklet or accept the Retail Entitlement Offer on behalf of any person in the United States or any person who is acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States (to the extent such person holds Primary Shares and is acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States) or other jurisdiction outside Australia or New Zealand, except to beneficial shareholders who are institutional or professional investors in certain foreign countries (other than the United States) to the extent contemplated in the Investor Presentation under the section titled "Foreign Selling Restrictions" or as Primary may otherwise permit in compliance with applicable law.
Primary is not required to determine whether or not any registered Shareholder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of Primary Shares.

in each case, by no later than 5.00pm on the Retail Closing Date.
4.2. Option 2 – Take up part of your Retail Entitlement

in each case, by no later than 5.00pm on the Retail Closing Date.
The part of your Retail Entitlement not taken up will lapse and the New Shares not subscribed for will form part of the Retail Shortfall.
4.3. Option 3 – Take no action
If you take no action, you will not be issued New Shares and your Retail Entitlement will lapse. Your Retail Entitlement is non-renounceable and is not tradeable or otherwise transferable. Eligible Retail Shareholders who do not take up their Retail Entitlements in full will not receive any value for those Retail Entitlements they do not take up.
Eligible Retail Shareholders who do not participate fully in the Retail Entitlement Offer will have their proportionate interests in Primary diluted.
4.4. Payment by BPAY
To pay by BPAY, please follow the instructions on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form or online at https://primaryhealthcareretailoffer.thereachagency.com (which includes the Biller Code and your unique Customer Reference Number). You can only make a payment via BPAY if you are the holder of an account with an Australian branch of a financial institution that supports BPAY transactions.
You should instruct payment well before 5.00pm on the Retail Closing Date to enable its receipt before the Retail Entitlement Offer closes.
If you pay by BPAY, your Entitlement and Acceptance Form is not required to be lodged with the Registry and you will be deemed to have made the declarations set out in this Retail Information Booklet and on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form.
Primary will treat you as applying for as many New Shares as your payment will pay for in full up to your Retail Entitlement.
18 Options available to you
Any Application Monies received for more than your final allocation of New Shares will be refunded as soon as practicable after the close of the Retail Entitlement Offer. No interest will be paid to applicants on any Application Monies received or refunded.
Please make sure to use the specific Biller Code and unique Customer Reference Number on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form or accessed online at https://primaryhealthcareretailoffer.thereachagency.com. If you receive more than one personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you will need to complete individual BPAY transactions using the Customer Reference Number specific to each individual personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form that you receive.
You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. You may also have your own limit on the amount that you can pay via BPAY. It is your responsibility to check that the amount you wish to pay via BPAY does not exceed your limit.
4.5. Apply by post with cheque, bank draft or money order
To pay by cheque, bank draft or money order, you must complete your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form in accordance with the instructions on the form, indicating the number of New Shares you wish to apply for and return it by mail to the address set out below, accompanied by a cheque, bank draft or money order in Australian currency for the amount of the Application Monies, payable to “Primary Health Care Limited” and crossed “Not Negotiable”. Any agreement to issue New Shares to you following receipt of your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form is conditional on your cheque, bank draft or money order in payment of the Application Monies for those New Shares being honoured on first presentation.
Your cheque, bank draft or money order must be:
-
for an amount equal to $2.50 multiplied by the number of New Shares that you are applying for; and
-
in Australian currency, drawn on an Australian branch of a financial institution.
You should ensure that sufficient funds are held in the relevant account(s) to cover the Application Monies. If the amount of your cheque, bank draft or money order for Application Monies (or the amount for which the cheque clears in time for issue) is insufficient to pay in full for the number of New Shares you have applied for in your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, you will be taken to have applied for such lower number of whole New Shares as your cleared Application Monies will pay for (and to have specified that number of New Shares on your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form). Alternatively, your Application will not be accepted.
Any Application Monies received for more than your final allocation of New Shares will be refunded. No interest will be paid to applicants on any Application Monies received or refunded (wholly or partially).
Cash payments will not be accepted. Receipts for payment will not be issued.
It is important to note that the Retail Entitlement Offer closes at 5.00pm on Friday, 7 September 2018.

Taxation
55
Section 6: Taxation
Introduction
Set out below is a summary of the Australian income tax, goods and services tax (GST) and stamp duty implications of the Retail Entitlement Offer for Eligible Retail Shareholders who are residents of Australia for income tax purposes and who hold their Primary Shares (and will hold their New Shares) on capital account.
The summary below does not apply to Eligible Retail Shareholders who:
-
hold their Primary Shares (or will hold their New Shares) as revenue assets (such as assets used in carrying on a business of share trading, banking or insurance), or as trading stock or those who have acquired Primary Shares for the purpose of on-sale at a profit;
-
acquired the Primary Shares in respect of which their Retail Entitlements are issued under any employee share scheme or where New Shares are acquired pursuant to any employee share scheme; or
-
may be subject to special tax rules, such as insurance companies, partnerships, tax exempt organisations, trusts (except where expressly stated), superannuation funds (except where expressly stated) or temporary residents.
This taxation summary is based on the Australian tax law as it applies as at 9.00am on the date of this Retail Information Booklet. Other than as expressly discussed or specified, the comments do not take into account or anticipate changes in Australian tax law or future judicial interpretations of law after this time. This summary also does not take account of any individual circumstances of any particular Eligible Retail Shareholder and does not constitute tax advice. It does not purport to be a complete analysis of the potential tax consequences of the Retail Entitlement Offer and is intended as a general guide to the Australian tax implications. Eligible Retail Shareholders should seek specific advice applicable to their own particular circumstances from their own financial or tax advisors.
6.1. Issue of Retail Entitlements
The issue of a Retail Entitlement should not, of itself, result in any amount being included in your assessable income.
6.2. Exercise of Retail Entitlements
You will acquire New Shares where you exercise all or part of your Retail Entitlements under the Retail Entitlement Offer.
You should not derive any assessable income, or make any capital gain or loss, at the time of exercising (i.e. taking up) your Retail Entitlement.
For Australian Capital Gains Tax (CGT) purposes, the New Shares will be acquired on the day that you exercise your Retail Entitlement.
If you exercise all or part of your Retail Entitlement, the cost base of New Shares for CGT purposes will be equal to the Offer Price payable by you for those New Shares plus certain nondeductible incidental costs you incur in acquiring them. You will need to apportion any nondeductible incidental costs incurred in relation to exercising your Retail Entitlement across each New Share on a reasonable basis.
6.3. Lapse of Retail Entitlement
If you do not take up all or part of your Retail Entitlement in accordance with the instructions set out above, then that Retail Entitlement will lapse and you will not receive any consideration for
56 Taxation
your Retail Entitlement that is not taken up. There should be no tax implications for you from the lapse of your Retail Entitlement.
6.4. Dividends on New Shares
Any future dividends or other distributions made in respect of New Shares will be subject to the same income taxation treatment as dividends or other distributions made on Primary Shares held in the same circumstances.
6.5. Disposal of New Shares
Each New Share will constitute a separate CGT asset. The disposal of a New Share will constitute a disposal for CGT purposes.
On disposal of a New Share, you will make a capital gain if the capital proceeds on disposal exceed the cost base of the New Share. You will make a capital loss if the capital proceeds are less than the reduced cost base of the New Share. The cost base of New Shares is described above in Section 6.3.
If you are an individual, trustee or complying superannuation entity that has held New Shares for 12 months or more at the time of disposal (not including the date of acquisition or disposal) you should be entitled to apply the applicable CGT discount factor to reduce the capital gain (after offsetting capital losses). The CGT discount factor is 50% for individuals and trustees and 33⅓% for complying superannuation entities.
You will be taken to have acquired New Shares on the day you exercise your Retail Entitlement. Accordingly, to be eligible for the CGT discount, you must have held New Shares for at least 12 months after the date that you exercised your Retail Entitlement.
If you make a capital loss, you can only use that loss to offset other capital gains; i.e. the capital loss cannot be used against taxable income on revenue account. However, if the capital loss cannot be used in a particular income year, you can carry it forward to use in future income years, providing certain loss utilisation tests are satisfied.
6.6. Taxation of Financial Arrangements (TOFA)
The TOFA provisions operate to make assessable or deductible, gains or losses arising from certain ‘financial arrangements’ (importantly, the CGT discount is not available for any gain that is subject to the TOFA provisions).
The application of the TOFA provisions depend on your specific facts and circumstances. You should seek advice from an appropriate professional advisor in relation to the implications of the TOFA provisions to you.
6.7. Provision of TFN and/or ABN
Primary may be required to withhold tax from you on payments of dividends that are not fully franked, at the specified rate, and remit such amounts to the ATO, unless you have provided an Australian Business Number (ABN), Tax File Number (TFN), or you have informed us that you are exempt from quoting your TFN or ABN.
You are not required to provide your TFN or ABN to Primary, however you may choose to do so. If you have previously quoted your ABN, TFN, or have notified us that an exemption from quoting your TFN/ABN exists, that quotation or exemption will also apply in respect of any New Shares acquired by you.
6.8. Other Australian taxes
No GST or stamp duty should be payable by you in respect of the issue or taking up of Retail Entitlements, or the acquisition of New Shares, pursuant to the Retail Entitlement Offer.

Section 7: Additional information
This Retail Information Booklet (including the enclosed Announcements) and attached personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form have been prepared by Primary.
This Retail Information Booklet (other than the Announcements) is dated 27 August 2018. The Announcements are current as at 27 August 2018. This Retail Information Booklet remains subject to change without notice, and Primary is not responsible for updating this Retail Information Booklet.
There may be additional announcements that have been made by Primary after 27 August 2018 and throughout the Retail Entitlement Offer Period that may be relevant in your consideration of whether to take part in the Retail Entitlement Offer. Therefore, it is prudent that you check whether any further announcements have been made by Primary before submitting an Application.
No party other than Primary has authorised or caused the issue of this Retail Information Booklet, or takes any responsibility for, or makes, any statements, representations or undertakings in this Retail Information Booklet.
For the avoidance of doubt, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Underwriters and its affiliates, related bodies corporate, officers, employees, agents and advisors disclaim all liability, including (without limitation) liability arising from fault or negligence, for any loss howsoever and whenever arising from the use of any of the information contained in this Retail Information Booklet, and the Underwriters do not act as a fiduciary or agent of each other or any other person.
This information is important and requires your immediate attention.
You should read this Retail Information Booklet in full before deciding how to deal with your Retail Entitlement. In particular, you should consider the risk factors outlined in the “Key Risks” section of the enclosed Investor Presentation, which could affect the operating and financial performance of Primary or the value of an investment in Primary.
You should consider these risk factors in light of your personal circumstances, including financial and taxation issues, before making a decision in relation to your Retail Entitlement. It is recommended that you seek professional advice from a licensed advisor before deciding whether or not to participate in the Retail Entitlement Offer.
7.1. Trading of New Shares
Primary has applied to the ASX for official quotation of the New Shares. If ASX does not grant quotation of the New Shares, Primary will repay all Application Monies (without interest). Subject to approval being granted, it is expected that trading of New Shares on ASX will commence on 17 September 2018 on a normal settlement basis.
Primary, the Underwriters and their advisors will have no responsibility and disclaim all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Shares they believe have been issued to them before they receive their holding statements, whether on the basis of a confirmation of issue provided by Primary or the Registry or otherwise or who otherwise trade or purport to trade New Shares in error or which they do not hold or are not entitled to.
If you are in any doubt as to these matters, you should seek professional advice.
7.2. Eligible Retail Shareholders
This Retail Information Booklet contains an offer of New Shares to Eligible Retail Shareholders in Australia and New Zealand and has been prepared in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act (as notionally modified by ASIC Corporations (Non-Traditional Rights Issues) Instrument 2016/84 and ASIC Corporations (Disregarding Technical Relief) Instrument 2016/73).
58 Additional information
Primary may (in its absolute discretion) extend the Retail Entitlement Offer to any Institutional Shareholders in foreign jurisdictions which did not participate in the Institutional Entitlement Offer (excluding the United States and subject to compliance with applicable laws).
7.3. Ranking of New Shares
New Shares issued under the Retail Entitlement Offer will be fully paid and rank equally with Primary Shares, however, New Shares will not be entitled to the final FY18 dividend of 5.5 cents per share.
The rights attaching to the New Shares are set out in Primary’s Constitution and are regulated by the Corporations Act, ASX Listing Rules and general law.
7.4. Rounding of New Shares
Where fractions arise in the calculation of Retail Entitlements, they will be rounded up to the next whole number of New Shares.
7.5. Reconciliation and the rights of Primary and the Underwriters
As with any entitlement offer, investors may believe that they own more Primary Shares on the Record Date than they ultimately do, or are otherwise entitled to more New Shares than initially offered to them. These matters may result in a need for reconciliation to ensure all Eligible Retail Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their full Retail Entitlement.
If reconciliation is required, it is possible that Primary may need to issue a small quantity of additional New Shares ( Top-Up Shares ) to ensure that all Eligible Retail Shareholders have the opportunity to receive their full Retail Entitlements. The price at which these Top-Up Shares will be issued will be the same as the Offer Price.
Primary also reserves the right to reduce the number of New Shares issued to Eligible Retail Shareholders or persons claiming to be Eligible Retail Shareholders, if their Retail Entitlement claims prove to be overstated, if they or their nominees fail to provide information requested to substantiate their Retail Entitlement claims, or if they are not Eligible Retail Shareholders. In that case, Primary may, at its discretion, require the relevant Shareholder to transfer excess New Shares to the Underwriters at the Offer Price per New Share. If necessary, the relevant Shareholder may need to transfer Primary Shares held by them or purchase additional Primary Shares on-market to meet this obligation. The relevant Shareholder will bear any and all losses caused by subscribing for New Shares in excess of their Retail Entitlement, and any actions they are required to take in this regard.
By applying under the Entitlement Offer, those doing so irrevocably acknowledge and agree to do the above as required by Primary in its absolute discretion. Those applying acknowledge that there is no time limit on the ability of Primary or the Underwriters to require any of the actions set out above.
7.6. No cooling off rights
Cooling off rights do not apply to an investment in New Shares. You cannot withdraw your Application once it has been accepted
7.7. No entitlements trading
Retail Entitlements are non-renounceable and cannot be traded on ASX or any other exchange, nor can they be privately transferred.
7.8. Not financial product advice
This Retail Information Booklet is not a prospectus, product disclosure statement or other offering

7.9. Financial data
All dollar values in this Retail Information Booklet are in Australian dollars (A$).
7.10. Underwriting
The Entitlement Offer is underwritten by the Underwriters and Primary and the Underwriters have entered into an Underwriting Agreement. Any New Shares which are not taken up by Eligible Retail Shareholders pursuant to their Retail Entitlement will form part of the Retail Shortfall to be taken up by the Underwriters or sub-underwriters, on the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement.
Customary with these types of arrangements, pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement:
-
Primary has agreed, subject to certain exceptions, to indemnify the Underwriters, their related bodies corporate and affiliates, and their respective directors, officers, agents or employees against any losses they may suffer or incur in connection with the Entitlement Offer, the Entitlement Offer materials or the appointment of the Underwriters under the Underwriting Agreement;
-
Primary and the Underwriters have given certain representations, warranties and undertakings in connection with (among other things) the Entitlement Offer;
60 Additional information

-
(3) close of business on the trading day immediately prior to the settlement date for the Retail Entitlement Offer;

Primary alters its capital structure without the consent of the Underwriters, other than by issuing New Shares pursuant to the terms of the Entitlement Offer;
-
Primary or any of its related bodies corporate becomes insolvent;
-

-
- Primary breaches the Underwriting Agreement or any of the representations or warranties given by it under the Underwriting Agreement.

-
an underwriting fee of 1.45% of the Institutional Entitlement Offer proceeds;
-
