Dear Sir / Madam

MAYNE PHARMA GROUP LIMITED ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL COMPLETION OF INSTITUTIONAL ENTITLEMENT OFFER AND PLACEMENT

KEY POINTS

  • Institutional Entitlement Offer and Placement successfully completed, raising A$71.8 million.

  • Very strong support shown by existing shareholders that were accelerated as well as significant interest from new investors.

  • Retail Entitlement Offer opens on 18 February 2015.

On 10 February 2015, Mayne Pharma Group Limited (ASX: MYX) (Mayne Pharma) announced an approximately A$115 million equity raising (the “Offer”) to partly fund the acquisition of the Doryx[®] assets from Actavis Plc as well as the purchase of two US generic products (Butalbital/APAP/Caffeine capsule ANDA and full ownership of the Methamphetamine tablet ANDA).

The Offer comprises an underwritten 1 for 3.45 pro-rata accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise approximately A$105m (the “Entitlement Offer”), and a placement to institutional and sophisticated investors to raise approximately A$10m (the “Placement”).

Today Mayne Pharma is pleased to announce the successful completion of the institutional component of the Entitlement Offer (the “Institutional Entitlement Offer”) and the Placement. Approximately A$60.1 million was raised under the Institutional Entitlement Offer at an offer price of $0.61 per share with approximately 99% take-up by eligible institutional shareholders.

The Placement attracted significant demand, raising A$11.7 million at a price of $0.75 per share which represents a 17.2% premium to the underwritten floor price of $0.64 per share and a 7.1% premium to the last closing price of Mayne Pharma on 9 February 2015 of $0.70 per share.

Mayne Pharma’s CEO, Scott Richards, said, “We are very pleased with the support that our existing shareholders and new investors alike have shown for the accelerated tranche of our capital raising, which represents another milestone in Mayne Pharma’s strategic development in the US pharmaceutical market. The Board and management team are excited about the opportunities provided by the Doryx[®] acquisition and the show of support we have received”

The new shares to be issued under the Institutional Entitlement Offer and Placement will rank equally with existing Mayne Pharma shares in all respects from the date of their issue. Settlement of these new shares is expected to be completed on 19 February 2015 and these new shares are expected to be issued and commence trading on the ASX on a normal settlement basis on 20 February 2015.

COMMENCEMENT OF THE RETAIL ENTITLEMENT OFFER

The retail component of the Entitlement Offer (the “Retail Entitlement Offer”) will open on 18 February 2015 and closes at 5pm (Melbourne time) 4 March 2015. Mayne Pharma retail shareholders registered as a shareholder in Australia or New Zealand as at 7pm (Melbourne time) on 13 February 2015 (“Eligible Retail Shareholders”) will have the opportunity to participate at the same offer price of A$0.61 per new share and at the same offer ratio of 1 new Mayne Pharma ordinary share for every 3.45 existing Mayne Pharma ordinary shares as participants in the Institutional Entitlement Offer.

Further details of the Retail Entitlement Offer were set out in Mayne Pharma's announcement on 10 February 2015 and the terms and conditions will be fully set out in the retail offer document to be dispatched to Eligible Retail Shareholders on 18 February 2015.
