Lion Selection Group Limited 2 Securities Trading Policy

1. This Securities Trading Policy is designed to prevent the possibility of any actual or perceived:

• conflict of interest between the Manager and Lion; and

• insider trading by the directors and employees (and related parties) of Lion. The policy extends to include investments for, or on behalf of the relevant director or employee, spouse, an associated company or trust, or any other related person, company or entity (related parties).

2. Summary of the insider trading prohibitions in the Corporations Act

Meaning of insider and inside information

For the purposes of the insider trading provisions of the Corporations Act, a person is an ‘insider’ if the person possesses information that is not generally available but, if the information were generally available, a reasonable person would expect it to have a material effect on the price or value of securities (‘inside information’) and the person knows, or ought reasonably to know that the information is inside information.

Information is taken to be generally available if it:

• consists of readily observable matter; or

• has been made known in a manner that would, or would be likely to, bring it to the attention of persons who commonly invest in securities of a kind whose prices might be affected by the information and since it was so made known, a reasonable period for it to be disseminated among such persons has elapsed; or

• consists of deductions, conclusions or inferences made or drawn from such information.

A reasonable person is taken to expect information to have a material effect in the price or value of securities if the information would, or would be likely to, influence persons who commonly invest in securities in deciding whether or not to subscribe for, buy or sell the relevant securities.

What activities are prohibited under the Corporations Act?

The Corporations Act prohibits an insider from ‘trading’ or ‘procuring’ another person to trade in relevant securities and from ‘tipping’ another person in relation to the relevant securities, whether as principal or agent.

• (a) Trading means to subscribe for, purchase or sell, or enter into an agreement to subscribe for, purchase or sell any such relevant securities;

• (b) Procuring includes to incite, induce or encourage another person to trade in the relevant securities; and

• (c) Tipping means to communicate directly or indirectly inside information (or to cause the inside information to be communicated) to another person where the insider knows, or ought reasonably to know, that the other person would or would be likely to trade or procure a third person to trade in the relevant securities .

3. Supervisory Procedures

To assist in the adherence to this policy, the Lion Board will:

• ensure all directors, officers and employees of Lion are familiar with these policies and procedures;

• review on a regular basis and update as necessary, these policies and procedures;

• seek declarations of interests at each regular Board meeting; and

• review the trading activity of each director and employee from time to time, including trading for or on behalf of the relevant director or employee, a family member (spouse or minors only), company or trust, or any other person, company or entity, and whether directly, or through a stockbroker or other intermediary.

Each director, officer and employee of Lion will annually provide the Company Secretary with a statement that they are aware of this policy (or update), and have adhered to it for the prior 12 month period.
