4. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SHARES ISSUED ON CONVERSION OF THE CONVERTIBLE NOTES
The Shares issued to the Investor on the conversion of the Convertible Notes under the CSA will rank equally in all respects with all of the Company’s existing Shares. The rights attaching to the Shares, including new Shares to be issued to the Investor on the conversion of the Convertible Notes, are set out in the Company’s constitution, and, in certain circumstances, regulated by the Corporations Act, the ASX Listing Rules and the general law.
The Company intends to apply to ASX for quotation of the Shares issued on conversion of any Convertible Notes.
Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Company’s constitution, a copy of which can be inspected free of charge, at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.
The following is a broad summary of the rights, privileges and restrictions attaching to all Shares. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders.
(A) GENERAL MEETINGS
Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.
Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Company’s constitution.
(B) VOTING RIGHTS
Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of Shares, at general meetings of Shareholders or classes of Shareholders:
-
(i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;
-
(ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy,
Imagion Biosystems Limited ACN 616 305 027 Level 25, 525 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 www.imagionbiosystems.com
attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and
- (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for the Share, and a fraction of a vote for each partly paid Share, equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid (not credited) is of total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited), ignoring any amounts payable in advance of a call.
(C) DIVIDEND RIGHTS
Subject to the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any Shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares.
The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.
(D)
WINDING-UP
If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.
The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution of the Company, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any Shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.
(E) SHAREHOLDER LIABILITY
As the Shares to be issued on the conversion of the Convertible Notes will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.
(F) TRANSFER OF SHARES
Generally, Shares are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.
(G) FUTURE INCREASE IN CAPITAL
The allotment and issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors.
Imagion Biosystems Limited ACN 616 305 027 Level 25, 525 Collins Street, Melbourne VIC 3000 www.imagionbiosystems.com
Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of securities contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Company’s constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue securities as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.
(H)
VARIATION OF RIGHTS
Subject to the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, if at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of Shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied with the consent in writing of the holders of three-quarters of the issued shares of that class, if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class or as otherwise permitted by the Corporations Act.
(I)
ALTERATION OF CONSTITUTION
The Company’s constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting.
5. COMPLIANCE WITH DISCLOSURE OBLIGATIONS
The Company is a “disclosing entity” under the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations under both the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.
These obligations require the Company to notify ASX of information about specific events and matters as they arise. In particular, the Company is obliged to continuously disclose to the market immediately any information which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Shares.
The Company is also required to prepare and lodge with ASIC yearly and half-yearly financial statements accompanied by a directors’ statement and report, and an audit report or review. Copies of documents lodged with ASIC in relation to the Company may be obtained from, or inspected at, an ASIC office.
The Company will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request:
-
(a) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with ASIC, being the financial report of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2022;
