Dear Shareholder
21 November 2011
NON-RENOUNCEABLE ENTITLEMENT OFFER OF SHARES 1 for 1 pro-rata Entitlement Offer
Our Company continues to conduct its investment activities whilst I and my fellow Directors also continue to explore other opportunities that we believe may result in an increase in shareholder value.
As you would most likely be aware global equity markets have experienced significant volatility over the last six months and in general equity markets, including the Australian Securities Exchange, have experienced material declines during this period.
As a consequence we are conducting a 1 for 1 Entitlement Offer to increase the investment funds available to the Company and to fund the administration costs of the Company. As a shareholder with a registered address in Australia or New Zealand you will be entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
Board members intend to take up a substantial proportion of their entitlements under the Offer. In aggregate Board members own 42.5% of the shares in the Company.
The Company’s shares will commence to trade ex-rights on Wednesday 23 November 2011 and the record date will be Tuesday 29 November 2011. The Entitlement Offer opens on Thursday 1 December 2011 and acceptances will close at 5 pm (Sydney time) on 15 December 2011. The Entitlement Offer will be despatched to shareholders on or about 1 December 2011.
The Company is making the Entitlement Offer in Australia under section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 which does not require that an offer document be lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission.
If you are eligible and wish to participate in the Entitlement Offer please read the Entitlement Offer Document when you receive it and carefully follow the instructions contained therein. You will need to complete your personalised Entitlement and Acceptance Form, which will accompany the Entitlement Offer Document, in accordance with the instructions provided and return it with payment on or before the Closing Date.
