4. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

4.1 The Offer

The purpose of the Offer is to recognise the invaluable support the Company has received from its Shareholders. The Offer is an opportunity for Shareholders to participate in the development of the Company.

The Offer is being made as a non-renounceable rights issue of one (1) Loyalty Option for every three (3) Shares held by Shareholders registered at the Record Date at an issue price of $0.01 per Loyalty Option. Fractional Entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number.

Based on the capital structure of the Company as at the date of this Prospectus, a maximum of 18,673,616 Loyalty Options will be issued pursuant to this Offer to raise up to approximately $186,736. If all the Loyalty Options issued under the Offer are exercised, the Company will receive approximately $3.73 million.

As at the date of this Prospectus the Company has 14,677,624 Options on issue, all of which may be exercised prior to the Record Date in order to participate in the Offer. Please refer to section 5.4 of this Prospectus for information on the exercise price and expiry date of the Options on issue.

All of the Loyalty Options offered under this Prospectus will be issued on the terms and conditions set out in section 6.1 of this Prospectus.

All of the Shares issued upon the future exercise of the Loyalty Options offered under this Prospectus will rank equally with the Shares on issue at the date of this Prospectus. Please refer to section 6.2 for further information regarding the rights and liabilities attaching to the Shares.

The purpose of the Offer and the intended use of funds raised are set out in section 5.1 of this Prospectus.

4.2 Minimum subscription

The minimum subscription under the Offer will be $186,736, being the full subscription.

4.3 Acceptance

Your acceptance of the Offer must be made on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form accompanying this Prospectus. Your acceptance must not exceed your Entitlement as shown on that form. If it does, your acceptance will be deemed to be for the maximum Entitlement.

You may participate in the Offer as follows:

  • (a) if you wish to accept your full Entitlement:

  • (i) complete the Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (ii) attach your cheque, drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency, for the amount indicated on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form; or

  • (b) if you only wish to accept part of your Entitlement:

4

1149689_1

  • (i) fill in the number of Loyalty Options you wish to accept in the space provided on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (iii) attach your cheque, drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency, for the appropriate application monies (at $0.01 per Loyalty Option); or

  • (c) if you do not wish to accept all or part of your Entitlement, you are not obliged to do anything.

4.4 Payment by cheque/bank draft

All cheques must be drawn on an Australian bank or bank draft made payable in Australian currency to “iCollege Limited – Entitlement Offer Account” and crossed “Not Negotiable”.

Your completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form and cheque must reach the Company’s share registry no later than 5:00 pm WST on the Closing Date.

4.5 Payment by BPAY®

For payment by BPAY®, please follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make a payment via BPAY® if you are the holder of an account with an Australian financial institution that supports BPAY® transactions. Please note that should you choose to pay by BPAY®:

  • (a) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form; and

  • (b) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Shares which is covered in full by your application monies.

It is your responsibility to ensure that your BPAY® payment is received by the share registry by no later than 4:00 pm (WST) on the Closing Date. You should be aware that your financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regards to electronic payment and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. Any application monies received for more than your final allocation of Shares (only where the amount is $1.00 or greater) will be refunded. No interest will be paid on any application monies received or refunded.

The Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, a Shareholder may not sell or transfer all or part of their Entitlement.

4.6 Underwriting

The Offer is fully underwritten by the Underwriter. Refer to section 8.4.1 of this Prospectus for details of the terms of the underwriting.

4.7 Effect on control of the Company

The Underwriter is not presently a shareholder of the Company. The Underwriter is not a related party of the Company for the purpose of the Corporations Act.

5

1149689_1

As set out in section 8.4.2, under the Mandate Agreement, the Company has agreed to issue 3,000,000 Underwriter Options to the Underwriter in lieu of corporate advisory fees, subject to the provision of corporate advisory services.

The Underwriter’s relevant interest and changes under several scenarios are set out in the table below and are based on the assumption that the Underwriter takes up its full entitlement of Underwriter Options under each scenario, that all of the Options issued to the Underwriter are exercised, that no other Options or Loyalty Options are exercised, that no convertible securities are converted into Shares and no further Shares are issued.

12,336,808 18.05%

0% subscribed
14,005,211 20.00%

The number of Shares held by the Underwriter on conversion of its Loyalty Options and Underwriter Options and its voting power in the table above show the potential effect of the underwriting of the Offer. However, it is unlikely that no Shareholders, other than the Underwriter, will take up Entitlements under the Offer or that only the Underwriter will accept the Options held by it. The Underwriter has also indicated that it will seek sub-underwriters in respect of its sub-underwriting obligations under the Underwriting Agreement. It is a term of the Underwriting Agreement that the Underwriter may not be issued with such number of Options such that, upon exercise of all Options held, the Underwriter’s voting power could increase above 20%.

The Underwriter may subscribe for a maximum of 14,005,211 Options, including 11,004,211 Options (being the maximum amount of Loyalty Options that the Underwriter may take up under the Offer) together with an additional 3,000,000 Underwriter Options (to which the Underwriter is entitled pursuant to the Underwriter Offer upon the provision of corporate advisory services). However, the underwriting obligation corresponding to the Offer, and therefore voting power of the Underwriter, will reduce by a corresponding amount for the amount of Entitlements under the Offer taken up by the other Shareholders (to the extent those Loyalty Options are exercised).

In addition, Shareholders should note that, if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings, upon the future exercise of the Loyalty Options offered pursuant to the Offer, are likely to be diluted by approximately 25% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus). Examples of how the dilution may impact Shareholders are set out in the table below:

Notes:

  1. This table has been drafted without taking into account any Underwriter Options. Refer to section 8.4.2 for further details in respect of the Mandate Agreement.

  2. This table does not take into account the issue of any Shares upon satisfaction of the milestones under the performance shares (of which 10,000,002 are on issue).

  3. This table does not take into account Options on issue at the date of this Prospectus.

  4. The dilutionary effect shown in the table is the maximum percentage on the assumption that those Entitlements not accepted are taken up by the Underwriter.

4.8

ASX listing

Application for Official Quotation of the Loyalty Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made in accordance with the timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the Loyalty Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as varied by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Loyalty Options and will repay all application monies for the Loyalty Options within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Loyalty Options is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Loyalty Options now offered for subscription.

4.9

Issue

Loyalty Options issued pursuant to the Offer will be issued in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus.

Pending the issue of the Loyalty Options or payment of refunds pursuant to this Prospectus, all application monies will be held by the Company in trust for the Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

Holding statements for Loyalty Options issued under the Offer will be mailed in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at the commencement of this Prospectus.

4.10 Underwriter Offer

This Prospectus includes a separate offer of up to 3,000,000 Underwriter Options to the Underwriter (or its nominee). The Underwriter Offer will remain open for a period of 3 months after the Closing Date.

7

1149689_1

The Company has entered into the Mandate Agreement with the Underwriter under which the Company has appointed the Underwriter to provide certain corporate advisory services to the Company (the material terms of which are summarised at Section 8.4.2 of this Prospectus).

Under the terms of the Mandate Agreement, the Company has agreed to grant the Underwriter 3,000,000 Underwriter Options within a period of 3 months of the Closing Date. As such, upon being satisfied that the Underwriter has performed the corporate advisory services the subject of the Mandate Agreement, the Underwriter will be provided with a personalised Application Form in relation to the Underwriter Offer together with a copy of this Prospectus.

The Underwriter Options will be issued using the Company’s 15% placement capacity under the ASX Listing Rules.

4.11 Overseas shareholders

This Offer does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus.

It is not practicable for the Company to comply with the securities laws of overseas jurisdictions having regard to the number of overseas Shareholders, the number and value of Loyalty Options these Shareholders would be offered and the cost of complying with regulatory requirements in each relevant jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended and Loyalty Options will not be issued to Shareholders with a registered address which is outside Australia or New Zealand.

The Offer is being made in New Zealand pursuant to the Securities Act (Overseas Companies) Exemption Notice 2013.

Shareholders resident in Australia or New Zealand holding Shares on behalf of persons who are resident overseas are responsible for ensuring that taking up an Entitlement under the Offer does not breach regulations in the relevant overseas jurisdiction. Return of a duly completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form will be taken by the Company to constitute a representation that there has been no breach of those regulations.

4.12 Enquiries

Any questions concerning the Offer should be directed to Mr Christopher Watts, Company Secretary, on +61 6380 2555.

Shareholders are entitled to be present in person, or by proxy, attorney or representative to attend and vote at general meetings of the Company.

Shareholders may requisition meetings in accordance with section 249D of the Corporations Act and the Constitution of the Company.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at general meetings of shareholders or classes of shareholders:

  • (i) each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy, attorney or representative;

  • (ii) on a show of hands, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder has one vote; and

  • (iii) on a poll, every person present who is a Shareholder or a proxy, attorney or representative of a Shareholder shall, in respect of each fully paid Share held by him, or in respect of which he is appointed a proxy, attorney or representative, have one vote for each Share held, but in respect of partly paid shares shall have such number of votes as bears the same proportion to the total of such Shares registered in the Shareholder’s name as the amount paid (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited).

15

1149689_1

(c) Dividend rights

Subject to, and in accordance with, the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules, the rights of any preference Shareholders and to the rights of the holders of any shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, the Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to the Shareholders entitled to the dividend which shall be payable on all Shares according to the proportion that the amount paid (not credited) is of the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such Shares. The Directors may rescind a decision to pay a dividend if they decide before the payment date of the dividend that the Company’s financial position no longer justifies the payment.

The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders any interim dividends as they may determine. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be applied at the discretion of the Directors, for any purpose for which the profits of the Company may be properly applied.

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Company may, by resolution of the Directors, implement a dividend reinvestment plan on such terms and conditions as the Directors think fit and which provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time payable on Shares which are participating Shares in the dividend reinvestment plan, less any amount which the Company shall either pursuant to the Constitution or any law be entitled or obliged to retain, be applied by the Company to the payment of the subscription price of Shares.

(d) Winding-up

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, divide among the Shareholders in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company, and may for that purpose set such value as he considers fair upon any property to be so divided, and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the Shareholders or different classes of Shareholders.

The liquidator may, with the authority of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of any such property in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as the liquidator thinks fit, but so that no Shareholder is compelled to accept any shares or other securities in respect of which there is any liability.

(e) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued will be fully paid shares, they will not be subject to any calls for money by the Directors and will therefore not become liable for forfeiture.

(f) Transfer of shares

Generally, shares in the Company are freely transferable, subject to formal requirements, the registration of the transfer not resulting in a contravention of or failure to observe the provisions of a law of Australia

16

1149689_1

and the transfer not being in breach of the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules.

(g)

Future increase in capital

The issue of any new Shares is under the control of the Directors of the Company. Subject to restrictions on the issue or grant of Securities contained in the ASX Listing Rules, the Constitution and the Corporations Act (and without affecting any special right previously conferred on the holder of an existing share or class of shares), the Directors may issue Shares as they shall, in their absolute discretion, determine.

(h)

Variation of rights

Under section 246B of the Corporations Act, the Company may, with the sanction of a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders vary or abrogate the rights attaching to Shares.

If at any time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to any class (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class), whether or not the Company is being wound up, may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of three quarters of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(i)

Alteration of constitution

In accordance with the Corporations Act, the Constitution can only be amended by a special resolution passed by at least three quarters of Shareholders present and voting at the general meeting. In addition, at least 28 days written notice specifying the intention to propose the resolution as a special resolution must be given.

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

The Loyalty Options offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Shares pursuant to this Prospectus.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

7.2 Company specific

(a) Competition Risk

The Company will be participating in a highly competitive market, however there are few, if any, specific competitors who have a dominant market share and dictate the structure or practices in the market.

These competitors include existing online education providers using the name “iCollege” or variations to market online courses, registered training organisations providing accredited and non-accredited courses, education content resellers like SEEK Education, Universities, both public and private, online universities like Open University and professional development providers.

The fact that there are no dominant competitors makes market entry and penetration easier but not without the need to ensure that the Company can position and differentiate itself to gain market share.

There is no certainty that the Company will be successful in this market, that revenue growth will be stimulated or that the Company will operate profitably in the short term, or at all.

(b) Technology Risk

The Company’s technology platform has been developed as a proprietary system and all intellectual property rights are licensed by the Company. The platform is suitable for its application and based on the core programming languages and tools used to develop it, should be able to be scaled initially to meet growth in consumer demands.

However, with any technology there are security risks and upgrade risks, both of which have been mitigated due to the use of common web based technologies.

However, future demand levels may require improvements and updating of the technology or software architecture to meet scale out

18

1149689_1

demand. The future demand loads for the technology are not as yet quantified.

7.3 Industry specific

(a) Contractors and Service Providers

The Directors are unable to predict the risk of financial failure, default, insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the contractors used by the Company in any of its activities; or insolvency or other managerial failure by any of the other service providers used by the Company for any activity. Such events could adversely impact on the Company’s operations.

(b) Future Capital Requirements

Future funding will be required by the Company to develop various projects. There can be no assurance that such funding will be available on satisfactory terms or at all. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities.

If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations, which may adversely affect the business and financial condition of the Company and its performance.

7.4 General risks

(a) Economic

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s development and future activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

(b) Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • general economic outlook;

  • introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • interest rates and inflation rates;

  • changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on the market for equities in general. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future

19

1149689_1

performance of the Company or any return on an investment in the Company.

(c) Additional requirements for capital

The Company’s capital requirements depend on numerous factors. Depending on the Company’s ability to generate income from its operations, the Company may require further financing in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve restrictions on financing and operating activities. If the Company is unable to obtain additional financing as needed, it may be required to reduce the scope of its operations. There is however no guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional funding or be able to secure funding on terms favourable to the Company.

(d) Dividends

Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Directors and will depend on the financial condition of the Company, future capital requirements and general business and other factors considered relevant by the Directors. No assurance in relation to the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to dividends can be given by the Company.

(e) Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Shares and/or Options will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Shares and/or Options from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

In addition, the Underwriter shall be required to seek its own tax advice in respect of the Underwriter Offer.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Options under this Prospectus.

(f) Reliance on key personnel

The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations and the strategic management of the Company depends substantially on its senior management and its key personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more of these employees cease their employment.

7.5 Speculative investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Loyalty Options offered under this Prospectus

20

1149689_1

Therefore, the Loyalty Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Loyalty Options.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for Loyalty Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

21

1149689_1

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 Litigation

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

8.2 Continuous disclosure obligations

The Company is a “disclosing entity” (as defined in section 111AC of the Corporations Act) for the purposes of section 713 of the Corporations Act and, as such, is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations. Specifically, like all listed companies, the Company is required to continuously disclose any information it has to the market which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or the value of the Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on a company and the rights attaching to the securities. It is not necessary to include general information in relation to all of the assets and liabilities, financial position, profits and losses or prospects of the issuing company.

This Prospectus is intended to be read in conjunction with the publicly available information in relation to the Company which has been notified to ASX and does not include all of the information that would be included in a prospectus for an initial public offering of securities in an entity that is not already listed on a stock exchange. Investors should therefore have regard to the other publicly available information in relation to the Company before making a decision whether or not to invest.

Having taken such precautions and having made such enquires as are reasonable, the Company believes that it has complied with the general and specific requirements of ASX as applicable from time to time throughout the 3 months before the issue of this Prospectus which required the Company to notify ASX of information about specified events or matters as they arise for the purpose of ASX making that information available to the stock market conducted by ASX.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

22

1149689_1

  • (i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in paragraph (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and

  • (iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in paragraph (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company during normal office hours.

Details of documents lodged by the Company with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the tables below.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Shareholders in general meeting and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. The determination of non-executive Directors’ remuneration within that maximum will be made by the Board having regard to the inputs and value to the Company of the respective contributions by each non-executive Director. The current amount has been set at an amount not to exceed $300,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (ie non-cash performance incentives such as Options, subject to any necessary Shareholder approval) as the other Directors determine where a Director performs special duties or otherwise performs services outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director. In addition, Directors are also entitled to be paid reasonable travelling, hotel and other expenses incurred by them respectively in or about the performance of their duties as Directors.

Electronic prospectus

Pursuant to Class Order 00/44, the ASIC has exempted compliance with certain provisions of the Corporations Act to allow distribution of an electronic prospectus and electronic application form on the basis of a paper prospectus lodged with the ASIC, and the publication of notices referring to an electronic prospectus or electronic application form, subject to compliance with certain conditions.

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Application Forms. If you have not, please phone the Company on +61 6380 2555 and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of the Prospectus, or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the company announcements platform at www.asx.com.au.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

8.10 Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain. Accordingly, any forecast or projection information would contain such a broad range of potential outcomes and possibilities that it is not possible to prepare a reliable best estimate forecast or projection.

8.11 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the subregisters are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Loyalty Options issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

8.12 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Loyalty Options, you will be providing personal information to the Company (directly or by the Company’s share registry). The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a holder of equity securities in the Company, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s share registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company or its share registry if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Loyalty Options, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
