ASX ANNOUNCEMENT

Convertible Preference Shares Conversion

June 25, 2004, Sydney:

Imugene Limited, Sydney, announces that all 8.872 Convertible Preference Shares (CPS) have today automatically converted into 8,872 new ordinary shares in the capital of Imugene.

The CPS were issued last year as part consideration for the acquisition of the balance of the outstanding equity on issue in Imugene's production animal subsidiary, VectoGen Limited.

VectoGen, 100% owned by Imugene for the past 12 months, owns the rights to the Adenoviral Vector Delivery System for poultry and pigs. These products treat specific infectious diseases occurring within poultry and pigs as well as delivering 'Immune Enhancers'. All products deliver economic productivity gains and are viable replacements for chemicals and antibiotics.

Upon the satisfaction of various milestones the CPS were originally convertible into a maximum of 14,745,265 new ordinary Imugene shares. The initial milestone was for an Australian Stock Exchange market capitalisation in excess of \$33 million for a period of 20 consecutive days by 23 June 2004. This market capitalisation condition has not been met and automatic conversion into 8.872 ordinary Imugene shares occurred today. Accordingly Imugene's ordinary share capital on issue, as a result of the CPS conversion is 107,951,413 shares.

The other milestones related to three Adenoviral Vector Delivery System products that are under contract with Merial (Merck & Aventis' Animal Health joint venture company). Merial and Imugene continue their contract collaborations towards commercialisation of these three products and the contracts are unaffected by the conversion of the CPS.
