QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
* capitalised terms are defined in the Plan Rules.
What is the Share Purchase Plan?
The Share Purchase Plan (Plan) being offered by CBio provides Eligible Shareholders with the opportunity to purchase additional Shares in the Company at a discount to the market price without incurring brokerage and transaction costs.
The Plan will be offered under the Plan Rules (see the Plan Rules annexed to this Plan booklet) which contains the terms and conditions, as well as some important definitions.
Shares issued under the Plan will rank equally in every respect with Existing Shares and will be eligible to participate in all dividends paid after the date of issue.
Why is CBio issuing more Shares?
This SPP is part of the Company’s fundraising strategy, and will supplement other funding sources available to CBio. Through the recent IPO, the Company raised $7.1 million, which is expected to be sufficient funding to enable the recruitment of the remaining patients required in the current phase IIa clinical trial being conducted in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA). The Company has also announced a threeyear $12.45 million Convertible Loan funding facility, which will enable CBio to access monthly amounts of between $150,000 and $350,000 (subject to the conditions of the funding agreement).
Funds raised under the SPP will primarily be applied to meeting the remaining costs associated with completing the clinical trial, including the compilation of final study reports. The 150-patient trial is currently underway in Australia, New Zealand and Europe, with the final study reports expected to be delivered by mid 2011.
How much will CBio raise under the Plan?
CBio has not set an upper limit on the amount of capital to be raised under the Plan (subject to maximum limits under Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 15). However, CBio reserves absolute discretion to determine the amount raised under the Plan and to Scaleback applications under the Plan to the extent and in the manner that it sees fit. See below for further details regarding Scaleback of Applications.
Will the directors participate in the Plan?
Directors and senior management are able to participate in the Plan.
Am I an Eligible Shareholder?
Holders of Existing Shares as at the Record Date with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand are eligible to participate in the Plan (subject to any determination as to eligibility which may be made by the Board under the Plan Rules).
The Company is not making this offer to shareholders in countries outside Australia or New Zealand.
Are Eligible Shareholders required to participate in the Plan?
Participation in the Plan is optional for Eligible Shareholders. In the event that an Eligible Shareholder wants to participate in the Plan, it may purchase Shares in accordance with the Plan Rules up to the Maximum Application Amount.
3
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Before deciding on whether to participate in the Plan, and in particular before completing any application for Shares, you should consider the Company’s latest financial statements and, if necessary, consult your financial adviser.
How much can I invest under the Plan?
Shareholders may subscribe for Shares up to the Maximum Application Amount, being $15,000, per Eligible Shareholder. The Maximum Application Amount is calculated using the Issue Price so that the number of Shares subscribed for, multiplied by the Issue Price, must not exceed $15,000.
Applications can only be made in the amounts of $2,000, $5,000. $10,000 or $15,000.
What is the Issue Price?
The Issue Price is $0.35 (or 35 cents) per share, which represents a 10% discount to the volume weighted average market price of the Shares for the 5 trading days prior to the Announcement Date.The Issue Price will not change during the Offer Period.
What risks are associated with investing under the Plan?
The market price for the Company’s Shares may change between the Opening Date and the Allotment Date, but the Issue Price will not change during this period. If the market price of Shares falls below the Issue Price you may be financially disadvantaged by purchasing Shares under the Plan.
An investment in CBio is speculative.

-
the price of Shares may be influenced by factors beyond the control of CBio;
-
failure to demonstrate the efficacy of CBio’s drug candidate XToll[®] in the current clinical trial may severely limit commercial opportunity;
-
failure to secure a suitable commercialisation deal should the current clinical trial prove successful;
-
inability to adequately protect the Company’s intellectual property;
-
competition from companies which have potentially greater resources; and
-
inability to raise future funds.
Eligible Shareholders wanting to participate in the Plan should obtain independent professional advice in relation to the taxation consequences of an investment under the Plan.
Eligible Shareholders may choose not to participate in the Plan.
When can I sell Shares purchased under the Plan?
Shares issued under the Plan may be sold or transferred on ASX at any time after quotation. The Quotation Date is expected to be Wednesday, 30 June 2010.

4
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
It is the responsibility of each applicant to confirm their holding before trading in Shares issued under the SPP. Any Applicant who sells their SPP Shares before receiving confirmation of their holding, in the form of their holding statement, will do so at their own risk.
How do I apply for Shares under the Plan?
Eligible Shareholders can subscribe for Shares under the Plan in one of two ways, depending upon whether payment is to be made by cheque or alternatively by BPAY[®] .
To pay by cheque:
Eligible Shareholders must complete the personalised Application Form enclosed with this document and return it in the reply paid envelope provided, with a cheque in payment of the Subscription Amount before 5.00pm (AEST) on the Closing Date to:
by delivery by post CBio Limited- Share Purchase Plan CBio Limited- Share Purchase Plan c/- Link Market Services Limited c/- Link Market Services Limited Level 15, 324 Queen Street Locked Bag 3415 Brisbane QLD 4000 Brisbane QLD 4001
For payment by BPAY[®] :
Eligible Shareholders must make payment by BPAY® following the instructions on the Application Form. Payment must be received before 4.00pm (AEST) on the Closing Date. There is no need to return the Application Form but note that by using this payment facility the Eligible Shareholder is taken to have represented the statements made on the Application Form are correct.
What is the Subscription Amount?
The Subscription Amount is the amount subscribed for, up to the Maximum Application Amount, being $15,000 of Shares.
How many Shares will I receive?
The number of Shares to be issued to each Eligible Shareholder will be calculated by dividing the Subscription Amount by the Issue Price.
The Company may, in its absolute discretion, undertake a Scaleback, including for the purpose of complying with Listing Rule 7.2, Exception 15.
If the parcel of Shares applied for does not equal a whole number of Shares, the value of the Shares issued to you will be rounded up to the nearest Share in the discretion of the Company or the Share Registry.
What is a Scaleback?
A Scaleback is a reduction in the allotments of Shares under the Plan (compared to the parcels applied for) that CBio may undertake if it receives applications under the Plan for more Shares than it wishes to issue.
CBio has not set an upper limit on the amount of capital to be raised under the Plan. However, CBio reserves absolute discretion to determine the amount raised under the Plan and to Scaleback Applications under the Plan to the extent and in the manner that it sees fit.
5
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Factors that CBio may take into account in determining any Scaleback include, but are not limited to, the amount applied for by each shareholder under the Plan, the number of Shares held at the Record Date and whether the shareholder remains on the register on the Closing Date. CBio may Scaleback Applications below the Minimum Application Amount.
If CBio undertakes a Scaleback, you will receive the number of Shares determined by CBio in its absolute discretion which may be less than the parcel of Shares for which you have applied. In this case, the difference between the application moneys received, and the number of Shares allocated to you multiplied by the Issue Price, will be refunded to you by cheque as soon as practicable, without interest.
Decisions made about scaling back by the Board of CBio are final.
What do I do if I receive more than one Application Form?
If you receive more than one Application Form or if you hold Shares in more than one capacity, for example, if you are both a sole and a joint holder of Shares, the maximum amount you may apply to invest under the Plan or any other similar arrangement in any 12 month period is $15,000. This limitation is imposed by ASIC.
Single holders – If you are the only registered holder of a holding of Shares but you receive more than one Offer under the Plan, you may only apply for one maximum parcel of Shares.
Joint holders – If you are a joint holder of a holding of Shares, that joint holding is considered to be a single registered holding for the purpose of the Plan and the joint holders are entitled to participate in the Plan in respect of that single holding only. If the same joint holders receive more than one Offer under the Plan, the joint holders may only apply for one maximum parcel of Shares.
Custodians – If you are a Custodian, you may apply for up to a maximum amount of $15,000 worth of Shares for each Beneficiary if, in conjunction with an Application Form, you provide CBio with a certificate stating those items listed under Rule 4.7 of the Plan and complying with ASIC Class Order 09/425 to CBio's satisfaction in its absolute discretion.
By applying to purchase Shares under the Plan, you certify that you have not exceeded this limit of $15,000 in scenarios listed at paragraph 8(a) (or paragraph 8(b)(ii) if you apply via BPAY[®] ) of ASIC Class Order 09/425.
CBio reserves the right to reject Applications where it appears that you are applying for more than $15,000 of Shares.
Will the Offer be available again?
The Plan is intended to be a one-off offer to Eligible Shareholders, providing them with an opportunity to purchase additional Shares without transaction costs and brokerage. However, the Board retains the right to make similar offers under future Share Purchase Plans.
