Suite 1, 1233 High Street Armadale VIC 3142

Share Purchase Plan

Dear Shareholder,

On behalf of the Board of Imugene Limited ACN 009 179 551 (ASX: IMU) ( Imugene ), we are pleased to offer you the opportunity to purchase up to $15,000 in additional shares in Imugene under this share purchase plan ( SPP ).

Imugene recently announced a successful placement of 225 million fully paid ordinary shares to sophisticated investors at an issue price of $0.01 per share, raising $2.25 million.

The SPP gives eligible shareholders the opportunity to purchase additional shares at the same price at which they were issued in the placement, which is approximately a 21% discount to the 30 day volume weighted average market price for Imugene’s ordinary shares calculated over the period prior to announcement of the SPP.

Included with this letter is the following accompanying material which aims to address any questions you may have in relation to the SPP:

  • 1 an investment overview, which includes details on pricing, the timetable, intended use of funds and key risks associated with an investment in Imugene;

  • 2 Imugene’s most recent newsletter and investor presentation;

  • 3 SPP terms and conditions; and

  • 4 an application form.

Information about Imugene is available at http://www.imugene.com/, which should be considered in conjunction with Imugene’s continuous disclosure to the ASX.

The SPP will close on Friday, 28 November 2014 at 5:00pm (Melbourne time). If you wish to participate in the SPP your application must be received by the close date. Please note that Imugene reserves its right to close the SPP early.

If you have any questions in relation to the SPP, please contact the offer information line on 1300 135 403 (within Australia) or +61 1300 135 403 (outside Australia) between 8:30am and 5:30pm (Melbourne time), Monday to Friday.

The board encourages you to consider this opportunity and thanks you for your continued support.

Yours faithfully,

Intended use of funds

Funds raised by the Placement and SPP will be used to progress the company’s main asset, HER-Vaxx, into human Phase Ib/II clinical trials and will be allocated towards:

  • 1 manufacturing and clinical trials;

  • 2 corporate, general and administrative costs (including consultants);

  • 3 preclinical work;

  • 4 fundraising fees; and

  • 5 intellectual property costs.

Risks

Before making an investment decision, you should read the SPP terms and conditions set out below. Imugene considers that the major risks associated with an investment in Imugene include:

  • 1 HER-Vaxx is still in development and Imugene has not generated any product sales or revenues.

  • 2 Imugene clinical trials are costly and time-consuming, may be subject to suspension or delay, and may ultimately prove unsuccessful. There is also no guarantee that an adequate number of patients can be recruited on time, or at all, for clinical trials.

  • 3 Imugene may not obtain the regulatory approvals that it requires for sale of its products or the reimbursement approvals required for sales growth, or such approvals may be subject to delay.

==> picture [161 x 53] intentionally omitted <==

  • 4 As Imugene currently has no material revenues, it may need to raise further capital in the future, which may dilute existing shareholders. In addition, there can be no guarantee that additional capital can be raised at terms acceptable to shareholders.

  • 5 Imugene is dependant on the performance of its contract suppliers (including manufacturers and researchers) and third-party collaborators, as well as the retention of key consultants and personnel.

  • 6 Imugene may be impacted if its intellectual property is not able to be adequately protected or is subject to challenge by a third party.

  • 7 There are a number of groups around the world working on technology which could compete with HER-Vaxx and its application in oncology, and as such, Imugene may be impacted by competitive or alternative products or technologies.

Terms and Conditions

How do I accept?

To participate you should either:

==> picture [9 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • return your application form, together with a cheque; or

==> picture [9 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • pay the Application Amount via BPAY so that the payment is received by 5:00pm (Melbourne time) on Friday, 28 November 2014 .

BPAY instructions are set out on the application form. If you use BPAY, you do not need to return your application form. Please make sure you use the specific biller code and unique reference number on your personalised application form.

How many shares?

Eligible shareholders will receive the number of shares equal to the Application Amount (subject to any scaleback) divided by the Issue Price. Fractions will be rounded down, and the difference (being any amount less than the Issue Price) may be retained by the Company, excluding any scale back.

Eligibility to participate

Participation in the SPP is optional. The offer is open to all shareholders with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand as at the Record Date.

Multiple holdings

Your own financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times for electronic payment and you should consider this when making payment.

If payment is via cheque, use the reply paid envelope or deliver it to the address on the application form. Applications received after the Closing Date will not be accepted.

Funds received for the applications by cheque or BPAY will be regarded as applications for the maximum number of Shares that those funds will pay for in full.

Applications cannot be withdrawn.

Imugene’s market price may vary at any time during the offer period and Imugene’s shares may trade at a price that is lower than the issue price.

By accepting the SPP offer, you accept the risk that the market price of Imugene’s shares may fall below the Issue Price between the date of this offer and the Allotment Date, in which case you may be able to buy the shares at a lower price than the Issue Price.

By making an application, you represent to Imugene the matters set out under the heading ‘Your Representations’ in these terms and conditions and in the application form.

If you are the only registered holder of Imugene Shares, but you receive more than one offer (i.e. due to multiple registered holdings), you may only apply in aggregate for a maximum of A$15,000 worth of Shares.

Joint holder

If you are a joint holder of Imugene Shares, for the purposes of this offer, that holding is considered to be a single registered holding. You are entitled to participate in the SPP for that single holding only. If you are a joint holder and you receive more than one offer under the SPP, you may only apply in aggregate for a maximum of $15,000 worth of Shares.

Trustee or nominee

If you are expressly noted on Imugene’s share register as a trustee or nominee for a named beneficiary, you may only apply for one maximum parcel of Shares for each named beneficiary. If Imugene’s share registry does not record a named beneficiary in respect of your trustee or nominee holding, the rules for multiple single holdings apply.

Custodians

If you are a custodian within the definition of “custodian” in ASIC Class Order [CO 09/425] (as varied) and hold Imugene’s shares on behalf of one or more persons (each a Participating Beneficiary ), or on behalf of another custodian of Imugene’s shares, you may apply for up to a maximum of $15,000 worth of shares for each Participating Beneficiary, subject to providing Imugene a ‘custodian certificate’ in addition to the Application Slip, which certifies matters required by Condition 9 of ASIC Class Order 09/425.

Please contact the share registry to obtain the form of the Custodian Certificate.

  • the amount applied for by each shareholder;

==> picture [9 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • whether the Shareholder remains on the register at the Closing Date.

In the event of a scale-back (which will be announced on the Allotment Date), the difference between the value of the Shares allotted and the Application Amount paid to Imugene (only where the amount is $1.00 or more) will be refunded by cheque and mailed to you as soon as practicable after the Dispatch Date. Interest will not be paid on any Application Amount paid or refunded.

ASX quotation

After Shares are allotted and issued under the SPP, Imugene will apply to ASX for a quotation of the Shares on the Official List and send allotment notices to eligible shareholder’s registered address.

No costs

Brokerage, commission and other transaction costs do not apply to the SPP.

  • if the application form has not been properly completed;

==> picture [8 x 9] intentionally omitted <==

  • where there are grounds for believing the applicant is not acting in good faith including where shareholdings have been adjusted for the purpose of multiple SPP applications.

Imugene may modify, suspend or cancel the SPP at any time and will notify ASX of same. If cancelled, all application money will be refunded without interest. Imugene may at its discretion, settle any anomalies or disputes in connection with the SPP and any such decision is final and binding on all applicants. Imugene reserves its right to waive strict compliance with these terms and conditions.
