  • To : Australian Securities and Investments Commission ( ASIC )

  • RedHill Education Limited ACN 119 952 493 ( RedHill )

ASX Limited; and

Each RedHill shareholder referred to in section 650D(1)(c) and section 650D(2) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) as modified by ASIC Class Order [CO 13/521]

iCollege Limited ACN 105 012 066 ( ICT ) gives notice under section 650D of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) in respect of its offers dated 15 April 2021 in relation to its off-market takeover bid to acquire up to 100% of the ordinary shares in RedHill ( Offer ) pursuant to its bidder's statement dated 25 March 2021, replaced by its replacement bidder's statement dated 9 April 2021 ( Bidder's Statement ).

Terms defined in the Bidder's Statement have the same meaning when used in this notice unless the context requires otherwise.

  • a) extending the period during which the Offer will remain open for acceptance until 7:00pm (Melbourne time) on 4 October 2021 , unless withdrawn or further extended in accordance with the Corporations Act; and

2. New date for giving notice as to the status of defeating conditions under the Offer

Since the Offer remains subject to the defeating conditions set out in section 6 of Schedule 1 of the Bidder's Statement, ICT gives notice in accordance with section 630(2) of the Corporations Act that:

  • a) the Bidder's Statement is varied so that the new date that ICT is required to give notice of the status of the defeating conditions is 27 September 2021; and

  • b) as at the date of this notice, so far as ICT is aware, none of the defeating conditions set out in section 6 of Schedule 1 of the Bidder's Statement have been fulfilled or waived and accordingly the Offer remains subject to those conditions.

3. Withdrawal rights

This extension of the Offer period will postpone for more than one month the time by which ICT must satisfy its obligations under the Offer. Accordingly, section 650E of the Corporations Act gives each RedHill shareholder who has validly accepted the Offer on or before the date of this notice, with a right to withdraw their acceptance of the Offer ( Withdrawal ) by giving a written notice of withdrawal ( Withdrawal Notice ) to ICT within one month beginning on the day after the day on which the relevant RedHill shareholder receives this notice ( Withdrawal Period ).

RedHill shareholders who withdraw their acceptance must return any consideration received for accepting the Offer. A Withdrawal Notice by a RedHill shareholder withdrawing their acceptance under section 650E of the Corporations Act must:

  • a) if the shares are in a CHESS Holding:

  • I. be in the form of a Valid Originating Message transmitted to ASX Settlement by the Controlling Participant for that CHESS Holding in accordance with Rule 14.16.1 of the ASX Settlement Operating Rules; or

  • II. be in the form of a notice in writing to ICT setting out the information ICT requires to transmit a Valid Originating Message to ASX Settlement on behalf of RedHill shareholder in accordance with Rule 14.16.5 of the ASX Settlement Operating Rules; and

  • b) in any other case, be in writing to ICT, care of Advanced Share Registry Limited at:
