2 October 2020
----- End of picture text -----
Scheme of arran ement su lementar materials g pp y
OneVue Holdings Limited (ASX: OVH) ( OneVue or Company ) is pleased to announce that the Federal Court of Australia has approved the form of a supplementary booklet ( Supplementary Booklet ) to be sent to OneVue shareholders in relation to the proposed acquisition of 100% of the shares in OneVue by Iress Limited (ASX: IRE) ( Iress ) by way of scheme of arrangement ( Scheme ). The Australian Securities and Investments Commission ( ASIC ) has also today registered the Supplementary Booklet.
Publication of the Supplementary Booklet follows OneVue’s announcement on 28 September 2020 that Iress has increased the consideration under the proposed Scheme from 40 cents per share to 43 cents per share. Iress has announced that the increased Scheme consideration is its best and final offer to OneVue Shareholders, in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to all of Iress’ rights under clause 11.6 of the Scheme Implementation Agreement, which gives Iress the right to make a matching offer in the event of a competing proposal (described further at section 8.5 of the Scheme Booklet).
A copy of the Supplementary Booklet (which contains a notice of an adjourned scheme meeting for the Scheme) containing information about the increased cash consideration under the Scheme and the Scheme timetable is attached. OneVue Shareholders will be notified via email or by post on or before 6 October 2020 with instructions about how to view or download a copy of the Supplementary Booklet.
Adjourned Scheme Meeting
OneVue confirms that the Federal Court of Australia has also made orders postponing the Scheme meeting. The adjournment enables OneVue Shareholders to have sufficient opportunity to review the information set out in the Supplementary Booklet following the increase in Scheme consideration.
The adjourned Scheme Meeting will now be held virtually 10.30am (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 21 October 2020.
An updated Scheme timetable is included in the Supplementary Booklet.
All OneVue shareholders are encouraged to vote either by attending the Scheme Meeting virtually or by appointing a proxy, attorney or corporate representative to attend the Scheme Meeting and vote on their behalf.
For a proxy vote to be effective, the proxy must be lodged or received by Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited, OneVue’s share registry, no later than 10.30am (Sydney time) on Monday, 19 October 2020 . Further details as to how to vote in person and by proxy are set out in the ‘How to Vote’ section of the notice of adjourned Scheme Meeting set out in Annexure B of the Supplementary Scheme Booklet. Shareholders may vote online at www.investorvote.com.au/ovh using their holder number (SRN or HIN) and the postcode of the registered address of the holding. You do not need a proxy form to vote or appoint a proxy.
Valid proxy forms for the Scheme meeting that have been lodged by any OneVue Shareholder are valid unless revoked.
OneVue Shareholders who have already lodged a proxy and do not wish to change their proxy therefore do not need to take any action.
Directors' recommendation
The OneVue Directors continue to unanimously recommend that OneVue shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme in the absence of a superior proposal and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Scheme is in the best interests of OneVue shareholders.
==> picture [143 x 27] intentionally omitted <==
==> picture [595 x 73] intentionally omitted <==

Independent Expert's conclusion
The Independent Expert, Grant Thornton Corporate Finance Pty Ltd has confirmed its opinion that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and is therefore in the best interests of OneVue shareholders in the absence of a superior proposal.

VOTE IN FAVOUR
Increased Scheme Consideration - best and final offer
OneVue and Iress have entered into an amendment to the Scheme Implementation Agreement, the effect of which is to increase the Scheme Consideration from $0.40 to $0.43 cash for each OneVue Share held by the Scheme Shareholder at the Record Date (Increased Scheme Consideration).
Iress has announced that the Increased Scheme Consideration is its best and final offer to OneVue Shareholders, in the absence of a Superior Proposal and subject to all of Iress’ rights under clause 11.6 of the Scheme Implementation Agreement, which gives Iress the right to make a matching offer in the event of a competing proposal (described further at section 8.5 of the Scheme Booklet).
The OneVue Directors continue to unanimously recommend that OneVue Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a Superior Proposal and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Scheme is in the best interests of OneVue Shareholders. Subject to the same qualifications, the Directors continue to intend to vote in favour of the Scheme for the OneVue Shares that they hold or control.
The Independent Expert continues to conclude that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and is in the best interests of the OneVue Shareholders, in the absence of a Superior Proposal. The Increased Scheme Consideration is at the top of the Independent Expert’s value range of $0.36 to $0.43 per OneVue Share.
If the Scheme is unsuccessful, the Independent Expert has indicated there is a risk that OneVue Shares will trade at prices below the original offer from Iress. On 28 May 2020 (being the last trading price prior to the announcement of the Scheme), OneVue Shares were trading at $0.24 per share.
The Scheme Meeting has been adjourned by the Court, and is now scheduled to be held virtually at 10.30am (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 21 October 2020.

WS:ANZ_Active:83503316:v1
1 Increase in Scheme Consideration
1.1 Increase in consideration
On 1 June 2020, OneVue announced that it had entered into a Scheme Implementation Agreement in connection with the proposed scheme of arrangement between OneVue and OneVue Shareholders pursuant to which it is proposed that Iress will acquire all of the issued shares in OneVue. The Scheme offered OneVue shareholders Scheme Consideration of $0.40 cash for each OneVue Share that is held by the Scheme Shareholder at the Record Date.
As announced on 28 September 2020, OneVue and Iress have entered into an amendment to the Scheme Implementation Agreement which amends the terms of the Scheme Implementation Agreement, the effect of which is to increase the Scheme Consideration from $0.40 to $0.43 cash for each OneVue Share that is held by the Scheme Shareholder at the Record Date ( Increased Scheme Consideration ). A copy of that amending agreement is provided at Annexure A of this Supplementary Scheme Booklet.
Iress has confirmed in its announcement dated 28 September 2020 that the Increased Scheme Consideration is its best and final offer to OneVue Shareholders, in the absence of a Superior Proposal and subject to all of Iress’ rights under clause 11.6 of the Scheme Implementation Agreement, which gives Iress the right to make a matching offer in the event of a competing proposal (described further at section 8.5 of the Scheme Booklet).
The Increased Scheme Consideration represents a premium of:
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- 79.2% to the OneVue closing share price of $0.240 on 28 May 2020, being the last trading price prior to the announcement of the Scheme;
==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
- 97.3% to the 1-month VWAP to 28 May 2020 of $0.218[1] ;
==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
- 113.2% to the 3-month VWAP to 28 May 2020 of $0.202[2] ;
==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
- 73.4% to the 6-month VWAP to 28 May 2020 of $0.248[3] ; and
==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
- 7.5% to the initial Scheme Consideration of $0.40 per share.
The Increased Scheme Consideration is at the top of the Independent Expert’s valuation range of $0.36 to $0.43 per OneVue Share.[4]
This change means that, if the Scheme is approved and implemented:
==> picture [11 x 9] intentionally omitted <==
- each OneVue Shareholder holding OneVue Shares on the Record Date will receive $0.43 cash for each OneVue Share held; and
==> picture [11 x 10] intentionally omitted <==
- the total Scheme Consideration provided by Iress for the acquisition of 100% of OneVue will be $115,209,922 in cash.
1 1-month volume weighted average price of OneVue shares of $0.218 from 29 April 2020 to 28 May 2020. Calculated on a cumulative volume basis.
2 3-month volume weighted average price of OneVue shares of $0.202 from 2 March 2020 to 28 May 2020. Calculated on a cumulative volume basis.
3 6-month volume weighted average price of OneVue shares of $0.248 from 29 November 2019 to 28 May 2020. Calculated on a cumulative volume basis.
4 OneVue notes that pages 24, 32 and 49 the Scheme Booklet incorrectly recorded the Independent Expert’s valuation range of $0.35 to $0.43 per OneVue Share. The correct range, as set out in the Independent Expert’s Report, is between $0.36 and $0.43.
Page 1
If the Scheme is unsuccessful, the Independent Expert has indicated there is a risk that OneVue Shares will trade at prices below the original offer from Iress. On 28 May 2020 (being the last trading price prior to the announcement of the Scheme), OneVue Shares were trading at $0.24 per share.
1.2 Directors’ recommendation
The OneVue Directors continue to unanimously recommend that OneVue Shareholders vote in favour of the Scheme, in the absence of a Superior Proposal and subject to the Independent Expert continuing to conclude that the Scheme is in the best interests of OneVue Shareholders.
Subject to the same qualifications, the Directors continue to intend to vote in favour of the Scheme for the OneVue Shares that they hold or control. The interests of Directors are set out in sections 4.7.1 and 9.1.1 of the Scheme Booklet.
1.3 Independent Expert’s opinion
The Independent Expert, Grant Thornton Corporate Finance Pty Ltd ( Independent Expert ), has confirmed to the OneVue Directors that its opinion, namely that the Scheme is fair and reasonable and is in the best interests of the OneVue Shareholders, in the absence of a Superior Proposal, has not changed.
The Increased Scheme Consideration is at the top of the Independent Expert’s value range of $0.36 to $0.43 per OneVue Share.
A complete copy of the Independent Expert’s Report is included as Attachment A of the Scheme Booklet.
1.4 Adjournment of Scheme Meeting
On 1 October 2020, the Court ordered that the Scheme Meeting be adjourned.
The adjourned Scheme Meeting will now be held virtually at 10.30am on Wednesday, 21 October 2020.

Proxies must be lodged and or received by Computershare Investor Services Pty Ltd no later than 10.30am 19 October 2020.
Any subsequent proxy form that you lodge will revoke any earlier proxy form that you have lodged with OneVue.
1.5 Amended Scheme
The Scheme to be voted on is the Scheme set out as an Annexure to the Scheme Booklet. When the matter comes before the Court for approval, OneVue will apply for an amendment to the Scheme to increase the Scheme Consideration from $0.40 per OneVue Share to $0.43 per OneVue Share. Iress has agreed to this amendment: see the Amendment to the Scheme Implementation Agreement which is Annexure A of this Supplementary Scheme Booklet. The Court has power to order such an amendment under section 411(6) of the Corporations Act.,
Valid proxy forms for the Scheme Meeting that have been lodged by any OneVue Shareholder are valid unless revoked.
1.6 Other terms of Scheme remain unchanged
