MAYNE PHARMA RECEIVES FURTHER PURPORTED NOTICE TO TERMINATE SCHEME IMPLEMENTATION DEED FROM COSETTE
13 June 2025, Adelaide, Australia: Mayne Pharma Group Limited (ASX: MYX) ( Mayne Pharma ) refers to its announcement on 4 June regarding a notice from Cosette Pharmaceuticals, Inc. ( Cosette ) dated 4 June 2025 under which Cosette purported to terminate the scheme implementation deed dated 20 February 2025 ( SID ) for the purposes of clause 3.7(b) and clause 15.1(a)(ii) of the SID ( Cosette Termination Notice ).
As indicated in the third paragraph of Mayne Pharma’s announcement on 4 June 2025, within the Cosette Termination Notice Cosette indicated that if the Cosette Termination Notice is held to be ineffective, Cosette gave notice of a purported breach by Mayne Pharma of the Mayne Representation and Warranty (as defined in the SID), contained in paragraph 15 of Schedule 2 to the SID ( Cosette Additional Notice ). In the Cosette Additional Notice, Cosette indicated an intention to terminate the SID if the circumstances giving rise to the alleged breach continue to exist for five Business Days.
This afternoon, Mayne Pharma received a further purported termination notice ( Further Cosette Termination Notice ) on the same grounds that were alleged in the Cosette Additional Notice.
The Further Cosette Termination Notice does not provide any additional information in relation to the grounds for termination and is framed as a notice of termination if for any reason the SID has not already been terminated.
Mayne Pharma has, together with its advisors, considered the Further Cosette Termination Notice. Mayne Pharma intends to reject the Further Cosette Termination Notice as invalid and reiterates its position that there is no lawful basis for Cosette to terminate the SID.
Mayne Pharma reserves all of its rights in connection with any failure by Cosette to perform its obligations under the SID. Mayne Pharma intends to continue to enforce its rights under the SID, including via the proceedings filed in the Court on 4 June 2025.
Mayne Pharma Shareholders do not need to take any action at this time in relation to the Further Cosette Termination Notice.
The Scheme Meeting will proceed on 18 June 2025, as set out in the Scheme Booklet and Mayne Pharma’s announcement on 15 May 2025.
The Mayne Pharma Directors continue to unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of the Scheme Resolution at the Scheme Meeting, 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 Mayne Pharma Shareholders. Subject to the same qualifications, each Mayne Pharma Director who holds Mayne Pharma Shares intends to vote, or cause to be voted, all Mayne Pharma Shares that he or she holds or Controls in favour of the Scheme Resolution.
