capitalisation of $300 million or less) can seek shareholder approval by special resolution to issue a further 10% of share capital in 12 months on a non-pro rata basis, determined in accordance with the following formula prescribed in Listing Rule 7.1A.2:
(A x D) – E
Where:
-
A is the number of fully paid shares on issue 12 months before the date of issue or agreement:
-
(A) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months under an exception in Listing Rule 7.2;
-
(B) plus the number of partly paid shares that became fully paid in the 12 months;
-
(C) plus the number of fully paid shares issued in the 12 months with approval of holders of shares under Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.4. This does not include an issue of fully paid shares under the entity's 15% capacity pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1 without shareholder approval;
-
(D) less the number of fully paid shares cancelled in the 12 months.
-
-
D is 10%.
-
E is the number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued under Listing Rule 7.1A.2 in the 12 months before the date of the issue or agreement to issue that are not issued with the approval of shareholders under Listing Rule 7.1 or 7.4.
-
19 Additional disclosure obligations are imposed when the special resolution is proposed, when securities are issued and when any further approval is sought. For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.3A the Company provides the following information:
| Minimum price at which the equity securities may be issued |
The issue price of each equity security must be no less than 75% of the volume weighted average price for the equity securities calculated over the 15 trading days on which trades in that class were recorded immediately before: (a) the date on which the price at which the securities are to be issued is agreed; or (b) if the securities are not issued within 5 trading days of the date in paragraph (a), the date on which the securities are issued. |
|---|---|
| Risk of economic and voting dilution |
An issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A involves the risk of economic and voting dilution for existing Shareholders. The risks include: (a) the market price for Shares may be significantly lower on the issue date than on the date of the approval under Listing rule 7.1A; and (b) the equity securities may be issued at a price that is at a discount to the market price for the Shares on the issue date. In accordance with Listing Rule 7.3A.2 a table describing the notional possible dilution, based upon various assumptions as stated, is set out below. |

|---|---|
| Purposes for which the equity securities may be issued, including whether the Company may issue them for non-cash consideration |
It is the Board’s current intention that any funds raised pursuant to an issue of equity securities will be applied towards the continued commercialisation of the Company’s drug development portfolio. This would principally include: (a) development activities; (b) clinical trial costs; (c) regulatory approvals; (d) intellectual property portfolio costs; and (e) overhead including staff and office costs, audit and compliance expenses, and ASX fees. The Company reserves the right to issue equity securities for non-cash consideration, including for payment of service or consultancy fees and costs. The Company also reserves the rights to utilise funds or equity securities to acquire complimentary drug assets or intellectual property. |
| Details of the Company’s allocation policy for issues under approval |
The Company’s allocation policy is dependent on the prevailing market conditions at the time of any proposed issue pursuant to Listing Rule 7.1A. The identity of the allottees will be determined on a case-by-case basis having regard to the factors including but not limited to the following: (a) the methods of raising funds that are available to the Company including, but not limited to, rights issues or other issues in which existing Shareholders can participate; (b) the effect of the issue of equity securities under Listing Rule 7.1A on the control of the Company; (c) the financial situation and solvency of the Company; and (d) advice from corporate, financial and broking advisers (if applicable).
