Letter from the Chairman

7 March 2023

On behalf of the Board of Imagion Biosystem Limited ( Company ), I invite you to participate in the Company’s Non-renounceable pro-rata entitlement offer of one (1) New Share for every eight (8) Shares held at the Record Date of 10 March 2023 at an Issue Price of $0.017 (1.7 cents) per New Share, ( Offer ).

Shaw and Partners have been appointed as lead manager of the Offer.

This Offer, forms a capital raise of approximately $2.4 million (before costs).

The Company has also announced that it has entered into a convertible securities agreement with Mercer Street Global Opportunity Fund, LLC ( Mercer ) providing for a secured financing facility of up to approximately $15 million, in a minimum of three investment tranches subject to certain conditions being satisfied ( Convertible Securities Raise ). Mercer will have the right to convert its convertible securities into fully paid ordinary shares in the Company, in accordance with the relevant terms of each tranche. In addition, Mercer will receive 22,058,824 new shares, representing 2.5% of the total facility, at no cost to Mercer in consideration for the provision of the funding facility (the deemed issue price is $0.017 per share). Additionally, for each tranche of investment, Mercer will receive a 75% option coverage to purchase new shares in the Company. Please refer to the Company's ASX announcement dated 7 March 2023 for further details in relation to the Convertible Securities Raise.

Funds raised under the Offer, in combination with funds raised under the Convertible Securities Raise, will be used primarily to prepare the Company’s MagSense® HER 2 breast cancer imaging agent for the next phase of clinical development, funding towards pipeline growth into oncology indications such as prostate and ovarian cancer and to provide additional working capital. The decision to raise capital at this time is driven by the progress of the Company’s first clinical trial with positive data providing the confidence to advance product development and initiate further clinical trials, most likely in the United States (refer to the Company Update ASX announcement released on 6 February 2023 for further details).

This capital raise will allow the Company to enable advancement to the next stage of clinical development in relation to the MagSense® HER 2 breast cancer imaging agent and move towards an IND application, which the Board views as having the potential to generate significant shareholder value.

  • The Offer is to be made pursuant to s708AA of the Corporations Act and may be summarised as follows:  Australian and New Zealand residents holding Shares may subscribe under the Offer for one (1) New Share for every eight (8) Shares held as at the Record Date of 7.00pm AEDT on 10 March 2023, ( Offer ).

  • The Offer of approximately 140,164,817 New Shares to an amount of approximately $2.4 million.

  • New Shares are priced at $0.017 (1.7 cents) per New Share.

  • Holders may also subscribe for Additional Shares beyond their Entitlement (on the basis that some existing Holders will be either ineligible or may fail to fully take up their Entitlement). This ability to apply for Additional Shares is restricted only to Eligible Shareholders (other than Directors and related parties of the Company) who also subscribe for their full Entitlement, is determined at the discretion of the Board and is referred to as a 'Top-Up Facility'.

  • The Directors reserve the right for up to 3 months after the close of the Offer to place any Shortfall at the Board's discretion but at a price no less than the Issue Price.

A copy of this Offer Document has been lodged with the ASX and can be accessed on the ASX website or via the Company's website www.imagionbiosystems.com.

The funds from the Offer are important and will significantly strengthen the Company’s balance sheet and provide funds towards:

  • Establishing the clinical and regulatory support teams and to prepare the Company’s MagSense® HER 2 breast cancer imaging agent for the next phase of development including manufacturing of materials;

  • The Company’s business development activities, working capital, corporate activities, and offer costs.

Your Entitlement under the Offer is shown on the online Entitlement & Acceptance Form. Details on how to accept the Offer are set out in Section 4.2.

Eligible Shareholders who fully subscribe for their entire Entitlement may also apply under the TopUp Facility for Additional Shares.

Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, if there remains any Shortfall after allocation of Additional Shares (if any), the Directors reserve the right for up to 3 months after the close of the Offer to place any Shortfall at the Board's discretion but at a price no less than the Issue Price.

registered address as noted on the Company’s share register.

Any extension of the Closing Date will have a consequential effect on the issue date of New Shares.

2.5 Entitlements under the Offer

The Offer is Non-renounceable and therefore Eligible Shareholders cannot offer to sell or transfer any of their Entitlement on the ASX or via an off-market transfer (or any other exchange or privately transferred).

Shareholders who do not take up their Entitlements in full will have their percentage interest in the Company diluted as compared to that percentage as at the Record Date.

As described in Section 2.9, any New Shares not taken up by an Eligible Shareholder by the Closing Date will form part of the Shares available under the Shortfall Offer, including the Top-Up Facility.

2.6 Entitlements and acceptance

The Entitlement of Eligible Shareholders to participate in the Offer will be determined on the Record Date. Your Entitlement is shown on the online Entitlement & Acceptance form accessible by logging into your account at www.investorserve.com.au.

2.7 No rights trading

The Offer is Non-renounceable. Accordingly, the Entitlements under the Offer will not be tradable on the ASX or otherwise capable of being sold or transferred. Shareholders who do not take up their Entitlement in full will not receive any value in respect of that part of the Entitlement they do not take up.

2.8 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 received.

2.9 Top-Up Facility

Eligible Shareholders (other than Directors and related parties of the Company) who fully subscribe for their entire Entitlement under the Offer may, in addition to taking up their Entitlements in full, apply for any number of Additional Shares in excess of their Entitlements by using the Top-Up Facility.

Additional Shares will only be available where the number of Shares the subject of Applications received under the Offer is less than the aggregate Entitlements, the aggregate Entitlements being 140,164,817 New Shares. Any Additional Shares issued will be at the same Issue Price of $0.017 (1.7 cents) per Share.

Details on how to apply for Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility are set out in Section 4.3. There can be no guarantee that there will be any allocation of Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility.

Subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, the Board in its discretion may determine the allocation subscriptions for Additional Shares (if any).

It is an express term of the Offer that Eligible Shareholders who apply for Additional Shares are bound to accept a lesser number of Additional Shares than they applied for or may be allocated no Additional Shares at all. In both cases, excess Application Monies will be refunded without interest. The Company reserves the right to scale back any applications for Additional Securities in its absolute discretion. When determining the amount (if any) by which to scale back an application, the Company may take into account a number of factors, including but not limited to the size of an Applicant’s shareholding in the Company, the extent to which an Applicant has sold or bought Shares in the Company before and after both the announcement of the Offer and the Record Date, as well as when the application was made.

8

For the avoidance of doubt, the prohibitions set out in section 606 of the Corporations Act on certain acquisitions of relevant interests in voting shares will apply to limit the acquisition of Additional Shares through the Top-Up Facility (as well as any other Shares issued under a Shortfall).

2.10 Shortfall Offer

If there remains any Shortfall after all Eligible Shareholders take up their Entitlements and all Additional Shares are allocated, the Directors reserve the right for up to 3 months after the close of the Offer to place any Shortfall at the Board's discretion, but at a price not less than the Issue Price of $0.017 (1.7 cents) per New Share ( Shortfall Offer ).

2.11 Directors' interests

The relevant interest of each of the Directors in the securities of the Company as at the Record Date is set out in the table below:

Geoff Hollis (Secretary) Nil 3,000,000 5,000,000

2.12 Issue and despatch

The issue of New Shares offered by this Offer Document is expected to occur on 6 April 2023.

It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine their allocation prior to trading in the New Shares. Applicants who sell New Shares without making such determination do so at their own risk.

The Company will have no responsibility and disclaims all liability (to the maximum extent permitted by law) to persons who trade New Shares before the New Shares are listed on the official list of ASX or before they receive their holdings statements, whether on the basis of confirmation of the allocation provided by the Company, the Share Registry or otherwise.

2.13 ASX Listing

The Company will make an application for official quotation by ASX of the New Shares offered under this Offer Document. If that permission is not granted by ASX, the Company will not issue any New Shares and all Application Monies received will be refunded (without interest) in full to the Applicants.

The fact that the ASX may grant official quotation to the New Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the New Shares. Neither the ASX nor any of its officers accepts or takes any responsibility for the contents of this Offer Document.

It is expected that normal trading on the ASX will commence in relation to the New Shares on 11 April 2023.

9

2.14 CHESS

The Company will apply to the ASX to participate in CHESS for those Shareholders who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Shareholders who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, Shareholders will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of New Shares allotted to them under this Offer Document. The notice will also advise Shareholders of their Holder Identification Number ( HIN ) and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures for the New Shares under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to Shareholders if there have been any changes in their interest in the Company during the preceding month.

2.15 Ineligible Foreign Shareholders

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 7.7.1 and Section 9A of the Corporations Act, the Company has decided that it is unreasonable to make the Offer to any Shareholder with a registered address outside Australia or New Zealand as at the Record Date ( Ineligible Foreign Shareholder ), having regard to:

  • (a) the number of Shareholders with addresses in such other countries as a proportion of total Shareholders in the Company;

  • (b) the number and value of the New Shares those Shareholders would be offered under the Offer; and

  • (c) the cost to the Company of complying with applicable legal and regulatory requirements in such other countries.

To the extent that there are any Ineligible Foreign Shareholders registered at the Record Date, the Company will send details of the Offer to each Ineligible Foreign Shareholder and advise each Ineligible Shareholder that they will not be offered New Shares under the Offer.

2.16 Overseas shareholders

No action has been taken by the Company to register the New Shares or otherwise permit an offering of the New Shares in any jurisdiction other than Australia or New Zealand. Eligible Shareholders resident in Australia or New Zealand holding Shares on behalf of persons who are resident overseas are responsible for ensuring that taking up Entitlements under the Offer does not breach regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction.

This Offer Document does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer or invitation in the United States, to any US person, to any person acting for the account or benefit of a person in the United States, or in any other place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or invitation.

The New Shares have not been and will not be registered under the US Securities Act or the securities laws of any state or jurisdiction in the United States and may only be offered, sold or resold in, or to persons in, the United States in accordance with an available exemption from registration.

Eligible Shareholders who are nominees, trustees or custodians are advised to seek independent advice as to how to proceed. The Offer is being made to all Eligible Shareholders. The Company is not required to determine whether or not any Eligible Shareholder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any beneficial owners of Shares.

Where any registered holder that qualifies as an Eligible Shareholder is acting as a nominee for a foreign person, that registered holder, in dealing with its beneficiary, will need to assess whether indirect participation by the beneficiary in the Offer is compatible with applicable foreign laws.

10

Any person in the United States or any person that is, or is acting for the account or benefit of a U.S. person with a holding through a nominee may not participate in the Entitlement Offer and the nominee must not take up any Entitlement or send any materials into the United States or to any person that is, or is acting for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person.

It is the responsibility of a Shareholder to ensure compliance with any laws of a country relevant to their application. Online completion of an Entitlement and Acceptance Form (and making payment via Bpay®) will be taken by the Company as a representation that there has been no breach of such laws and that the Applicant is an Eligible Shareholder.

2.17 Custodians

Eligible Shareholders who are nominees, trustees or custodians are advised to seek independent advice as to how to proceed. The Offer is being made to all Eligible Shareholders. The Company is not required to determine whether or not any Eligible Shareholder is acting as a nominee or the identity or residence of any underlying beneficial owners ( UBH ) of Shares.

The offer to apply for Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility will be available to the UBH of custodians / nominees.

Each custodian or nominee who is applying for Additional Shares on behalf of their individual UBH will need to submit a schedule showing the Record Date holding, the Entitlement Offer and the amount of Entitlement and Additional Shares taken up for each UBH.

Each UBH will need to apply for their maximum entitlement before applying for Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility. Therefore, the requirement to fulfil a shareholders maximum Entitlement before applying for Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility won’t apply to the registered custodian / nominee holding – the Company intends to process the amount of Shares as Entitlement acceptance and also the amount of Additional Shares as additional acceptance under the Top-Up Facility (per schedule supplied by the Custodian).

In respect of nominees, trustees or custodians acting on behalf of UBHs the foreign restrictions under the offer will be applied at the registered address of the Custodian. This will be irrespective of whether the holder is a QIB or sophisticated investor.

2.18 Foreign Jurisdictions

This Booklet has been prepared to comply with the requirements of the securities laws of Australia and New Zealand.

This Booklet does not constitute an offer in any jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer. No action has been taken to register or qualify the Offer or the New Shares, or otherwise permit the public offering of the New Shares, in any jurisdiction other than Australia and New Zealand. Online completion of the personalised Entitlement & Acceptance Form (and making payment via Bpay®) will be taken by the Company to constitute a representation by you that there has been no breach of any such laws. Eligible Retail Shareholders who are nominees or custodians should see Section 2.17.

3. Effect of the Offer

3.1 Effect of the Offer on the capital structure of the Company

The total number of New Shares to be issued under the Offer (the exact number depends on the rounding up of individual holdings) will be up to approximately 140,164,817.

The table below sets out, for illustrative purposes only, the existing Share capital structure of the Company at the Record Date (before the Offer) together with the impact of the issue of the New Shares under the Offer. It assumes that none of the below options are exercised prior to the Record Date and that all New Shares are issued under the Offer or placed after the Offer closes.

Shares Number
Existing Shares as at date of the Offer 1,121,318,534
Existing listed options as at date of the Offer 233,301,933
Existing unlisted options and rights as at the date of the Offer 57,071,000
Maximum number of New Shares issued under the Offer
(approximately) (including any Shares which may be issued
under any Shortfall)
140,164,817

The table above does not take into account any securities which may be issued to Mercer under the Convertible Securities Agreement. Subject to certain conditions being satisfied, under Mercer’s first tranche investment, 22,058,824 Shares, 26,138,956 unlisted options and convertible securities with an aggregate face value of $1,650,000 may be issued to Mercer within 10 business days of 7 March 2023 (with a further 15,995,876 unlisted options which may be issued on receipt of shareholder approval which must be obtained by 31 May 2023).

The effect of the Offer will be to increase the number of Shares on issue in the Company and increase the cash held by the Company (before taking into account the expenses of the Offer) by up to approximately $2.4 million.

Expenses of the Offer (including shortfall commitment fees) are expected to be approximately $0.32 million.

3.2 Potential effect on control of the Company

Eligible Shareholders who take up their Entitlements in full should not have their interest in the Company diluted by the Offer (subject to immaterial movements as a result of rounding of Entitlements).

The potential effect the Offer (including those Shares which may be issued to take up a Shortfall) will have on the control of the Company, and the consequences of that effect, will depend on a number of factors, including investor demand.

The potential effect of the Offer (including those Shares which may be issued under the Top-Up Facility and to take up any Shortfall) on the control of the Company is as follows:

  • (a) If all Eligible Shareholders take up their Entitlements under the Offer, then the Offer will have no significant effect on the control of the Company.

  • (b) If some Eligible Shareholders do not take up all of their Entitlements under the Offer, then the interests of those Eligible Shareholders will be diluted.

  • (c) The proportional interests of Ineligible Foreign Shareholders will be diluted because those Ineligible Foreign Shareholders are not entitled to participate in the Offer.

  • (d) Shareholders that apply for Additional Shares under the Top-Up Facility may increase their interests beyond their Entitlement. This would result in the dilution of holdings of those who did not accept their Entitlements in full and those who did not apply for

13

Additional Shares.

  • (e) To the extent there is an issue of any Shortfall, the interests of those Eligible Shareholders do not take up all of their Entitlements under the Offer will be diluted. This is likely to result in new investors having interests in the Company.

  • (f) The Company has reserved the right to issue part or all of any Shortfall within 3 months after the close of the Offer. If Eligible Shareholders do not take up all Entitlements under the Offer, this placement of the Shortfall could result in new investors having interests in the Company. If there is a Shortfall, the Board may decide to issue Additional Shares or other Shares under the Shortfall to other investors.

3.3 Market Price of Shares

The highest and lowest closing market prices of the Shares on the ASX during the 3 months of trading preceding the date of lodgement of this Offer Document and the respective dates of those sales, are: Highest: $0.034 on 8 December 2022 Lowest: $0.020 on 11 January 2023

The volume weighted average sale price on the ASX of the Shares during the 3 months immediately preceding the date of this Offer Document ( VWAP ) is $0.0275.

The entitlement offer offer price represents a discount of:

  • (a) 22.7% to the Company’s closing price on 6 March 2023 of $0.022 (2.2 cents);

  • (b) 26.1% to the Company's 10-day VWAP of $0.0230; and

  • (c) 38.8% to the Company’s 30-day VWAP of $0.0278.

3.4 Impact of change in ASX Market price

The market price of the Company's Shares on the ASX may change between the date of this Offer Document and the date of issue of Shares under the Offer.

If there is a decrease in that market price, this will be result in a corresponding proportionate decrease in the market value of Shares issued to the Applicant. If there is an increase in that market price, this will be result in in a corresponding proportionate increase in the market value of Shares issued to the Applicant.

However, any increase or decrease in market value will not alter the issue price per New Share, nor the number of New Shares to be issued, under the Offer.

5. Additional information regarding the Offer

5.1 Reliance on Offer Document

The Offer is made pursuant to section 708AA of the Corporations Act without the issue of a prospectus or disclosure document under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act. These provisions of the Corporations Act allow entitlement offers and related issues to be made by providing certain confirmations to the market on the basis that all information that investors and their professional advisers would reasonably require to make an informed investment decision in relation to the Offer, when read with this Offer Document, is publicly available.

This Offer Document is not a prospectus, disclosure document or other offering document under the Corporations Act (or any other Australian or foreign law) and has not been lodged with ASIC.

For the Company to rely on the disclosure exemption in section 708AA of the Corporations Act, the Company is required to lodge a "cleansing notice" under section 708AA(2)(f) of the Corporations Act. That notice is required to:

  • (a) set out any information that has been excluded from a continuous disclosure notice in accordance with the Listing Rules and that investors and their professional advisers would reasonably require, and would reasonably expect to find in a disclosure document, for the purpose of making an informed assessment of:

  • (i) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of the Company; or

  • (ii) the rights and liabilities attaching to the New Shares; and

  • (b) state the potential effect of the issue of the New Shares on the control of the Company and the consequences of that effect.

The Company has lodged a cleansing notice in respect of the Offer with ASX on 7 March 2023 and 14 March 2023.

5.2 Announcements

The Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and is therefore subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act and Listing Rules. These obligations require the Company to notify ASX of information about specific events and matters as they arise for the purposes of ASX making that information available to the market. In particular, the Company has an obligation (subject to certain limited exceptions) to notify ASX once it is, or becomes, aware of information concerning the Company which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of the Company’s securities.

Eligible Shareholders intending to participate in the Offer should refer to the announcements made by the Company to the ASX. This information is available from the ASX website, www.asx.com.au (ASX Code: IBX), and the Company's website, www.imagionbiosystems.com.

Additionally, the Company is also required to prepare and lodge with ASX yearly and half yearly financial statements accompanied by a directors’ statement and report and an audit review or report. These reports are released to ASX and published on the Company's and ASX's websites.

Copies of the Company's announcements and yearly and half yearly financial reports will also be available from the Company Secretary.

6. Risks

Shareholders should consider the investment in the context of their individual risk profile for speculative investments, investment objectives and individual financial circumstances. Each Shareholder should consult their own stockbroker, solicitor, accountant or other professional adviser before deciding whether or not to invest in the New Shares.

An investment in New Shares should be regarded as very speculative and involves many risks. The New Shares carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Shares.

This section identifies some of the major risks associated with an investment in the Company. There may be other risks which the Directors and/or management of the Company are unaware which may impact upon the Company, its operations and/or the value and performance of the New Shares and the Company generally. Intending Applicants before any decision is made to subscribe for shares should read the Company's prior continuous disclosure announcements to the ASX market in order to fully appreciate the risks particular to an investment in a company such as Imagion Biosystem Limited, in particular the risks faced by the Company in the continued development and proposed commercialisation of its product pipeline.

6.1

Speculative nature of investment

Any potential investor should be aware that subscribing for New Shares involves various risks. The New Shares to be issued carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those shares. Imagion Biosystems Limited is an imaging technology which has the potential to provide more specific and sensitive detection for cancer than current imaging technologies. An investment in the Company should therefore be considered very speculative and investors should be in a position to bear the loss of their entire investment.

6.2 Business risks associated with the Company

Specific Risks:

(a) Sufficiency of funding

The Company has limited financial resources and will need to raise additional funds from time to time to finance the continued research, development and commercialisation of its technology / products and its other longer-term objectives. The Company's ability to raise additional funds will be subject to, among other things, factors beyond the control of the Company and its Directors, including cyclical factors affecting the economy and share markets generally. The Directors can give no assurance that future funds can be raised by the Company on favourable terms, if at all. If for any reason the Company was unable to raise future funds, its ability to achieve its milestones or continue future development / commercialisation of its technology / product would be significantly affected.

(b) Impact of COVID-19

The global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the advice and responses from health and regulatory authorities, is continuously evolving. The global economic outlook is facing uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic which has had and may continue to have a significant impact on capital markets and share prices. The Company's Directors are closely monitoring the situation and considering the impact on the Company’s business from both a financial and operational perspective.

To date, COVID-19 has affected equity markets, governmental action, regulatory policy, quarantining, self-isolations and travel restrictions. These impacts are creating risks for the Company's business and operations in the short to medium term. Shipping and supply (domestic and international) delays have impacted and may continue to impact the Company, delaying the receipt of critical R&D material as part of the research and development program. This may extend to the receipt of manufactured kits for laboratory and clinical trial testing. Staff reduction in some international supplier businesses may also extend typical processing and shipping times. The pandemic has adversely affected enrollment of clinical trials globally, and while this challenge is abating it is possible that the Company may face delays with

20

patient recruitment once it starts further clinical trials. The Company has provided the ASX with market updates relating to COVID-19 and its potential impact but such market updates may not address all possible consequences. The Company has in place business continuity plans and procedures to help manage the keys risks that may cause a disruption to the Company's business and operations, but their adequacy cannot be predicted.

(c) Product risk

The MagSense® specific cancer imaging agents are still at various stages of development and each is a new applications and has not been fully proven. The detection of a specific type of cancer depends on the availability and functionality of tumor specific targeting moieties, e.g. antibodies, peptides, or ligands. The Company cannot guarantee that targeting moieties will be available to achieve the bio-functionality needed for any given application. Additionally, whilst a sample of in-human safety and efficacy data has been collected for the Company’s first product, a test for HER2 Breast Cancer, further in-human studies will be required to confirm clinical use. Although the Company has obtained approval for a current Phase 1 study in Australia there has been no regulatory approval in any other country and that regulatory approval has not yet been, and may not be, granted. There is an inherent risk that development of the technology will not progress as planned or achieving further regulatory clearance may take longer than planned which could require the Company to raise more capital.

(d) Commercialisation risk

Due to limited clinical data, there is no certainty that the MagSense® technology will be commercially viable, and the profitability and sustainability of the Company’s business model is uncertain. There is no guarantee that any of the Company’s research, development or commercialization plans and activities in relation to the MagSense® technology will be successful, that the Company will reach further development milestones or that the MagSense® technology tests will be commercially exploitable. There can be no assurance that the Company will attract a commercial licensee or partner, which may delay commercial progress or require the Company to raise more capital.

There is no certainty that medical professionals or other potential customers will take up Imagion’s products. The products retailed by the Company, its licensee, or partner may be unable to complete with established medical imaging methods on price or accuracy or may be unsuited to the established preferences or methods of medical professionals or other potential consumers.

(e) Regulatory risks

The diagnostic imaging industry is highly regulated in Australia, the United States, and other countries in which the Company may conduct business operations. Whilst the Company is not aware of any reason why its MagSense® imaging agents will not continue to be able to be used in clinical settings for HER 2 breast cancer as well as transitioning from pre-clinical to clinical product development for other cancer indications and uses, the Company cannot guarantee that this will occur in a timely manner or at all. The capabilities, testing, maintenance and stability of the MagSense® technology is subject to regulatory and legal requirements, and any amendment to existing legislation or regulations in countries where the Company operates or plans to operate may adversely affect the Company’s operations. Any actual or alleged breach of such legislation or regulations could results in the Company or any of its subsidiaries being subject to delayed filings or review, remedial actions, such as product recalls, or penalties, or litigation. Following commercialization of the MagSense® technology, the Company will be subject to United States, Australian or any other applicable jurisdictional laws and regulations concerning the post market surveillance of imaging agents.

(f) Product liability

Developing and commercializing imaging agents carries an inherent risk of product liability. Even though the Company has insurance cover, any product liability claims are likely to disrupt the Company’s business operations and may cause reputational harm by leading medical professionals and other consumers to doubt product accuracy, safety or quality, adversely impacting the Company’s performance.

21

(g) Dependence on service providers and third-party collaborators

The Company relies upon independent third-party service providers, third-party collaborators including academic institutions and clinical study sites to complete the development and commercialisation of its products. The Company therefore is exposed to the risk that any of these parties can experience problems related to operations, financial strength or other issues, which in turn could negatively impact the progress or success of the Company’s product development efforts.

(h) Reliance on key personnel

The Company’s research and development and its operations success will substantially depend on the continued employment of senior executives, technical staff and other key personnel. The loss of key personnel is likely to have an adverse effect on the Company’s operation and performance.

(i) Intellectual property

The prospect of obtaining patent protection for its imaging agents that the Company proposes to develop is highly uncertain and involves complex and continually evolving factual and legal questions. The Company may incur significant costs in applying for, prosecuting or defending its intellectual property rights.

The Company may rely on trade secret and first-mover advantage to assist in the protection of its imaging agents. Although the development of these imaging agents is highly complex there is still a risk that competitors could attempt to replicate the technology.

The detection of a specific type of cancer depends on the availability of tumor specific targeting moieties, e.g. antibodies, peptides, or ligands. The Company cannot guarantee that targeting moieties will be available to license for any given application or at commercially reasonable terms.

(j)

Competition risk

The biotechnology sector is highly competitive and subject to rapid and significant technology change. The development of imaging agents is very difficult and demanding; even more so if this competition is against competitors who may have larger resources than the Company. A number of companies, both in Australia and overseas, may be developing imaging technology that target similar markets that Imagion Biosystems Limited is targeting. The Company may face competition from companies with superior technologies or greater resources. As a result, there is the risk that the Company may be beaten to the market by one or more competitors.

(k)

Currency risk

Revenue and expenditure in overseas jurisdictions are subject to the risk of fluctuations in foreign exchange markets. The Company carries on part of its business outside of Australia and intends to continue to do so. Accordingly, revenues and payments will be made in those countries’ currencies and may deviate from budgeted expectations if there are adverse currency fluctuations against the Australian dollar.

(l)

Requirement to raise additional funding

The Company may be required to raise additional funds in the future. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to raise such additional capital when it is required, or on terms satisfactory to the Company. If the Company is unsuccessful in obtaining funding when required, this may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition and performance and the Company may need to delay, scale down or cease its operations. Further, any additional capital raised may dilute Shareholders’ interests in the Company.

(m) Going Concern

The Company’s most recent financial reports included ‘going concern’ as a Key Audit Matter. The Director’s believe, that upon successful completion of the Offer, the Company will have sufficient funds to adequately meet the Company’s current commitments and short-term working capital as outlined in Section 2.3. However, it is highly likely that further funding will be required to meet the medium to long-term working capital costs of the Company.

22

The Company’s failure to raise sufficient capital (if and when needed), including successful completion of this Offer, could delay or suspend the Company’s business strategy and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s activities.

(n) Insurance

The Company insures its business and operations. However, the Company’s insurance may not be of a nature or level to provide adequate insurance cover to insure against the occurrence of all events that may impact on the operations of the Company. The occurrence of an event that is not covered or fully covered by insurance could have a material adverse effect on the business, financial conditions and results of the Company.

General Risks:

(o) Market Conditions

The stock market, and in particular, the market for biotech companies, has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of such companies. These factors may materially affect the market price of the Shares, regardless of the Company’s operational performance.

The price at which the Shares are quoted on ASX may increase or decrease due to a number of factors outside the Company’s control and which are not explained by the fundamental operations and activities of the Company, including unpredictable influences on the market for securities in general and biotech stocks in particular. These factors may cause the Shares to trade at prices above or below the price at which the Shares were initially acquired. There is no assurance that the price of the Shares will increase if they are quoted on ASX. Some of the factors which may affect the price of the Shares include:

  • (i) fluctuations in the domestic and international market for listed stocks;

  • (ii) general economic conditions in both Australia and internationally, including interest rates, inflation rates, exchange rates, commodity prices;

  • (iii) inclusion in or removal from market indices;

  • (iv) changes to government fiscal, monetary or regulatory policy, legislation, or regulation;

  • (v) the nature of competition in the markets and industries in which the Company operates;

  • (vi) the introduction of taxation reform; and

  • (vii) general operational and business risks.

(p) Liquidity

There can be no guarantee that an active market in the Shares will develop or that the price of the Shares will increase. There may be relatively few buyers or a relatively high number of sellers of Shares on the ASX at any given time. This may increase the volatility of the market price of Shares. It may also affect the market price at which Shareholders are able to sell their Shares.

(q) Force Majeure

Events may occur within or outside Australia that could affect investor sentiment or impact upon the global and Australian economies, the operations of the Company and the price of the Shares. These events include acts of terrorism, an outbreak of international hostilities, fires, floods, earthquakes, labour strikes, civil wars, natural disasters, pandemics, outbreaks of disease or other man-made or natural events. These events can have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s goods and services and its ability to conduct business. The Company has only a limited ability to insure against some of these risks.

(r) Investment risk

The Shares to be issued pursuant to this Offer should be considered speculative. They carry no guarantee as to the payment of dividends, return of capital, or the market value of the

23

Shares. The prices at which an investor may be able to trade the Shares may be above or below the price paid for the Shares. While the Directors commend the Offer, investors must make their own assessment of the likely risks and determine whether an investment in the Company is appropriate to their own circumstances.

(s) Litigation risk

There is a risk that the Company may in the future be the subject of or require to commence litigation, mediation or arbitration. The impact of such actions may have a material adverse impact on the Company.

(t) Taxation Risks

Changes in tax law, or changes in the way tax laws are interpreted may impact the tax liabilities of the Company, Shareholder returns, or the tax treatment of a Shareholder’s investment. In particular, both the level and basis of taxation may change. Tax law is frequently being changed, both prospectively and retrospectively. Any actual or alleged failure to comply with, or any change in the application or interpretation of tax rules applied in respect of such transactions, may increase the Company’s tax liabilities or expose it to legal, regulatory or other actions.

(u) Changes in accounting standards

Australian Accounting Standards are issued by the Australian Accounting Standards Board and are not within the control of the Company and its Directors. Any changes to the accounting standards or to the interpretation of those standards may have an adverse effect on the reported financial performance and position of the Company.

(v) COVID-19

At the time of issue of this Offer Document, the COVID-19 global pandemic is having a significant and material impact on global markets and providing substantial impingement on the day-to-day operations of businesses. The pandemic may disrupt or prevent the Company from undertaking its operations and intended programs and may impact the Company’s ability to raise capital in the near to medium term future.
