Resolution 5 – Increase in Maximum Aggregate Annual Remuneration Payable to Non-Executive Directors.

In accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.17 and the Constitution, Shareholders must approve the maximum aggregate annual remuneration payable to Non-Executive Directors of the Company. This maximum amount includes Board fees, Committee fees and employer superannuation contributions. It does not include fees paid to Directors when providing services to the Company other than in their capacity as Directors, and does not apply to Executive Directors of the Company.

Currently, the Non-Executive Directors of the Company are Roger Corbett, Ron Best, Bruce Mathieson, Ian Scholes, Phil Hodges and Bruce Robinson. For the financial year ended 30 June 2014 Non-Executive Directors received total cash payments, including superannuation contributions, of $384,033.

The Board reviewed the level of fees payable to nonexecutive directors against those paid by companies of a similar market capitalisation, to ensure that they are appropriate to attract and retain directors of appropriate calibre and to reflect the increasing workload of the Board as the Company grows.

As a result of the review, the Board determined to increase the annual fees payable to each non-executive director from $70,000 to $77,500, with the Chairman’s annual fee being increased from $110,000 to $ 140,000, both excluding superannuation.

A maximum aggregate amount of annual remuneration for Non-Executive Directors of $500,000 was approved by Shareholders at the Annual General Meeting held on 17 November 2010, and the Directors consider it appropriate to seek a fresh Shareholder approval at this General Meeting in light of the increased number and calibre of Non-Executive Directors to the Board. The Directors consider it appropriate to propose an increase in the aggregate by $200,000 to $700,000 per annum at this time to have sufficient margin to remunerate the Non-Executive Directors that recently joined the Company and any future Directors that may join the Board.

Over the last year, the Board has taken steps to further enhance the experience and expertise represented on the Board. Professor Bruce Robinson was appointed in August 2014. In addition, Phil Hodges became a Non-Executive Director in January 2014 taking the number of Non-Executive Directors from four to six.

The new cap of $700,000 will make it possible for the Board to continue to pay fees to attract and retain the best Directors to the Board for the foreseeable future, while allowing, as appropriate, for increases in Board size and Director remuneration.

A full description of the Board’s approach to remuneration of Non-Executive Directors is set out in the Remuneration Report of the Company’s 2014 Annual Report.

The Company issued the following Shares to Non-Executive Directors under Listing Rule 10.11 with Shareholder approval in the last 3 years:

Date of
shareholder
approval
Non
Executive
Director
Number

Issue
price
9 Nov 2012 Bruce
Mathieson
15,220,878 $0.20
9 Nov 2012 Roger
Corbett
1,676,319 $0.20

Resolution 6 – Approval of the Company's Employee Share Loan Scheme (ESLS)

Under Resolution 6, the Company is seeking Shareholder approval of the Company's ESLS. Approval is sought for the purposes of Listing Rule 7.2, exception 9, such that Shares issued under the ESLS will not be counted in calculating the Company's 15% issue limit under Listing Rule 7.1 for three years from the Company's 2014 annual general meeting.

6

A summary of the ESLS is set out below.

Eligibility for
participation
Participation in the ESLS is open to
eligible employees as determined by
the Company.
Key terms
of loan
The ESLS provides for a limited-recourse,
interest free, five-year loan from the
Company for the sole purpose of
acquiring Shares.
Any dividends paid on the ESLS Shares
while the ESLS Shares are restricted are
applied (on a notional after-tax basis)
towards repaying the loan. The balance
of the dividend is paid directly to the
participant to fund his or her tax liability
on the dividends received.
Following the end of the applicable
Performance Period, if the vesting
conditions are met the ESLS Shares will
vest and the participant will then have
until the end of the five-year term to
repay the loan.
As this is a limited-recourse loan, if the
value of the ESLS Shares is less than the
outstanding loan balance at the end of
the loan period, the ESLS Shares will be
surrendered and forfeited in full
settlement of the loan balance.
Number of
Shares
The number of ESLS Shares to be
allocated to a participant will be
determined by dividing the value of the
loan amount by the market price of the
Shares, which for newly issued Shares,
will be the volume weighted average
price of Shares sold on the ASX during
the period of five trading days up to the
relevant grant date.
Vesting
Conditions
The relevant vesting conditions applying
to a participant's ESLS Shares will be
outlined in the applicable offer letter.
Performance
Period
It is generally intended that the ESLS
Shares will have a three-year
vesting/performance period, though the
specific period will be outlined in the
applicable offer letter.
Trading
restrictions
The ESLS Shares are restricted until the
end of the vesting / performance period
and while the loan remains outstanding.
Cessation of
employment
In general, all ESLS Shares are forfeited
and surrendered if the participant ceases
employment prior to the end of the
Performance Period. However, the
Board has discretion to determine that
some or all of a participant's ESLS Shares
may vest in appropriate circumstances.
Corporate
Control
Event
The Board may at its discretion
determine that unvested Shares become
vested if a 'Corporate Control Event'
happens (eg a takeover, scheme of
arrangement, a person acquires more
than 50% of the Shares, etc).

As at the date of this Notice of Meeting, 982,858 Shares have been issued under the ESLS to the Group CFO & Company Secretary, as set out in the table below.

Resolution 7 – Issue of Shares to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director under the ESLS

The Board’s remuneration policy for senior executives incorporates a strong element of remuneration linked to long-term company performance. Following the abolition of the short-term incentives for the CEO and Group CFO, all of the incentive component of their remuneration is now linked to the long-term success of the Company.

The ESLS provides a non-recourse loan for the sole purpose of acquiring Shares in the Company.

The Board believes that an equity-based long-term incentive is important to ensure an appropriate part of the executive’s reward is linked to generating long-term returns for Shareholders.

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14, shareholder approval is required in order for a Director to be issued securities under an employee incentive scheme. Accordingly, Shareholders are asked to approve the issue of Shares under the ESLS to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director, Mr Scott Richards.

A brief overview of the ESLS offer to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director is set out below (the summary of the ESLS provided for Resolution 6 also applies to the offer to the Chief Executive Officer and Managing Director). Further details of Mr Richards’ remuneration package and the operation of the ESLS are set out in the Remuneration Report of the 2014 Annual Report.

Date of
allocation
If Shareholder approval is obtained it is
expected that the loan will be made and
Shares will be allocated in December
2014, no later than 30 days after the AGM
Key terms
of loan
As above in relation to Resolution 6.
The amount of Scott Richards' loan will
be set by the application of a
multiplication factor to the dollar
amount of his ESLS participation (refer
Number and price of Shares section
below). The factor, which is not
expected to exceed 2.5 times, is based
on the option value as determined at
grant date using a Monte-Carlo
simulation model and the five-day
volume weighted average share price
(VWAP) at grant date.

7

Number and
price of
Shares
The value of Mr Richards’ annual ESLS
participation is determined by reference
to a percentage of his fixed
remuneration, currently 130%. In this
current year the dollar amount of his
ESLS participation is $845,000.
The number of ESLS Shares allocated is
determined by dividing the loan amount
by the 5-day VWAP at grant date.
Performance
Conditions
Shares will vest where an absolute total
shareholder return (TSR) growth
condition is met over the applicable
period (three years)
One half of the Shares will vest for
compound annual absolute TSR growth
of 10% per annum. All of the Shares will
vest for compound annual absolute TSR
growth of 15% per annum. Vesting will
occur on a straight-line basis for
performance between these two points
(effectively 1% for each additional 0.1%
of absolute TSR growth).
The Board chose the absolute TSR
growth targets to align executive reward
with what the Board considers to be
acceptable levels of return to
Shareholders (ie between 10% and 15%
compound annual growth) over the next
three years.
The Board considered the use of a
relative performance condition but does
not consider that there are a sufficient
number of appropriate comparator
pharmaceutical companies (ie of similar
size) listed in Australia.
Performance
Period
A three-year vesting period will apply to
the Shares.
Given the inherent uncertainty regarding
the timing of receiving regulatory
approvals for new products, the Board
has determined that it is appropriate
that if the Shares do not vest at the end
of the three-year performance period,
the applicable performance conditions
will be retested every six months until
expiry of the five-year term of the loan.
Trading
restrictions
As above in relation to Resolution 6
Cessation of
employment
As above in relation to Resolution 6

The Board unanimously recommends that Shareholders vote in favour of Resolutions 5, 6 and 7.
