Voting in person or by attorney

Shareholders or their attorneys wishing to vote in person should attend the meeting. Attendees are asked to arrive at least 15 minutes prior to the time the meeting is to commence, so that their shareholding may be checked against the register of members and their attendance noted.

  • (a) obtain an appointment of corporate representative form from Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited;

  • (b) complete and sign the form in accordance with the instructions on the form; and

  • (c) bring the completed and signed form with them to the meeting.

Proxies

  1. A Shareholder entitled to attend and vote at the meeting has a right to appoint a proxy to attend and vote in the Shareholder's place.

  2. The proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. A proxy may be an individual or a body corporate.

  3. A Shareholder who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint up to two proxies to attend and vote at the meeting and, in the case of such an appointment, should specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If no such proportion or number is specified, each proxy may exercise half of the votes. Fractions of votes will be disregarded.

  4. Where a Shareholder appoints two proxies, on a show of hands neither proxy may vote if more than one proxy attends and on a poll each proxy may only exercise votes in respect of those Shares or voting rights the proxy represents.

  5. A proxy may decide whether to vote on an item of business, except where the proxy is required by law or the constitution to vote, or abstain from voting, in his or her capacity as proxy. If a proxy is directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may only vote on the item as directed. If a proxy is not directed how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may vote as he or she thinks fit.

  6. If the abstention box on the proxy form for any item of business is marked, the proxy will be directed not to vote on a show of hands or on a poll and the relevant Shares will not be counted in calculating the required majority on a poll.

  7. Shareholders who intend to appoint the Company’s Chair as proxy (including an appointment by default) should have regard to the information above under the heading 'Appointing the Chair as your proxy'.

  8. The proxy form included in this Notice must be signed by the Shareholder or the Shareholder’s attorney and, in the case of a joint holding, by each of the joint holders.

Page 9 of 23

  1. If the proxy form is signed by the Shareholder but does not name the proxy or proxies in whose favour it is given, or the proxy does not attend the meeting, the Chair may either act as proxy or complete the proxy form by inserting the name of a Director or the Company Secretary of Circadian.

  2. The appointment of one or more duly appointed proxies will not preclude a Shareholder from attending this meeting and voting personally. If the member votes on a Resolution, the proxy must not vote as the member’s proxy on that Resolution.

  3. In the case of joint holders of Shares, if more than one holder votes at any meeting, only the vote of the first named of the joint holders in the register of members will be counted.

  4. To be valid, a proxy form signed under a power of attorney or other authority (if any) must be accompanied by the signed power of attorney, or a certified copy of the power of attorney.

  5. Proxies given by a corporation must be signed either under seal or under the hand of a duly authorised attorney. In addition, should the constitution of a corporation permit the execution of documents without using a common seal, the documents must be signed by two directors or a director and a company secretary, or for a proprietary company that has a sole director who is also a company secretary, that director.

  6. If a body corporate is appointed as proxy, please write the full name of that body corporate (e.g. Company X Pty Ltd). Do not use abbreviations. The body corporate will need to ensure that it:

  7. (a) appoints an individual as its corporate representative to exercise its powers at meetings, in accordance with section 250D of the Corporations Act; and

  8. (b) provides satisfactory evidence of the appointment of its corporate representative prior to commencement of the meeting.

If no such evidence is received before the meeting, then the body corporate (through its representative) will not be permitted to act as your proxy.

Please note that the Corporations Act provides that the vote on this Resolution is advisory only and does not bind the Directors or the Company. The Chair will allow a reasonable opportunity for Shareholders to ask questions about, or make comments on, the remuneration report at the meeting. The Company will take the outcome of the vote on Resolution 3 into consideration and the comments made by Shareholders at the meeting when reviewing the Company’s remuneration practices and policies.

In accordance with the Corporations Act, if twenty-five percent (25%) or more of the eligible votes cast are voted against the adoption of the Company’s remuneration report at two consecutive annual general meetings, Shareholders will be required to vote at the second of those annual general meetings on a resolution that another meeting of Shareholders be held within 90 days at which all of the Company’s Directors (other than the Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer) who were in office at the date of issue of the relevant second consecutive remuneration report must be put up for re-election.

Recommendation

Noting that each Director has a personal interest in his/her own remuneration from the Company, the Directors unanimously recommend that all Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 3, approving the adoption of the Company’s 2014 remuneration report.

Issue of shares and options under a placement

Background

The Company proposes to issue approximately 80 million fully paid ordinary shares and 40 million accompanying free options over fully paid ordinary shares to sophisticated and professional investors pursuant to the 2 separate tranches under the placement as set out in the Company's announcement released to ASX on 6 October 2014 ( Placement ). The issue of the Shares under tranche 1 of the Placement is not subject to shareholder approval and will be issued on or about 20 October 2014 within the 15% Limit as set out in ASX Listing Rule 7.1 (as defined below). The issue of the options under tranche 1 of the Placement and the issue of Shares and options under tranche 2 of the Placement is the subject of this Resolution.

The monies raised from the Share component of tranche 1 and tranche 2 of the Placement will provide the Company with capital to fund the OPT-302 program to the completion of Phase 2a clinical trial and to accelerate partnership opportunities to advance VGX-100.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 approval

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, an entity must not issue, or agree to issue, more than 15% of its capital in any 12 month period without the approval of its Shareholders ( 15% Limit ).

The aggregate number of Shares to be issued under tranche 1 and tranche 2 of the Placement would exceed the Company's 15% Limit. Accordingly, this Resolution is being proposed to ensure that amongst other things, the Company does not contravene ASX Listing Rule 7.1 by issuing the Shares and options to investors under the Placement.

Outlined below is the information in relation to the Shares and options to be issued under the Placement required to be provided to Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.3 for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1:

  • (a) the maximum number of securities under tranche 2 of the Placement to be issued is 73,142,857 fully paid ordinary shares and the maximum number of options to be issued under both tranche 1 and 2 of the Placement will in aggregate be 40,000,000 options over fully paid ordinary shares;

  • (b) the Company will allot and issue the Shares and options on or about 25 November 2014;

Page 14 of 23

  • (c) the issue price of each Share is $0.175;

  • (d) the options have a nil issue price and are exercisable at $0.27 per option on or before 25 November 2018;

  • (e) the Shares and options in the Company will be issued to sophisticated or professional investors sourced by Bell Potter Securities Limited (acting as lead manager to the Placement) and the Company;

  • (f) the Shares issued under the Placement and on exercise of the options rank pari passu with existing ordinary shares; and

  • (g) the funds raised from the issue of the Shares and options under the Placement will be used to provide the Company with capital to fund the OPT-302 program to the completion of Phase 2a clinical trial and to accelerate partnership opportunities to advance VGX-100.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that all Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 4, approving the issue of the Shares and options under the Placement.

7.

Ratification of shares issued under a placement

Background

As disclosed above in item 6, the Company proposes to issue securities in 2 separate tranches under the Placement. The Shares issued pursuant to tranche 1 of the Placement are the subject of this Resolution. The Shares are expected to be issued on or about 20 October 2014 and the issue of the Shares on that date will not require prior Shareholder approval as it, together with prior issues of securities in the Company in the last 12 months, will not exceed the 15% Limit.

ASX Listing Rule 7.4 ratification

Pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.4, a prior issue of securities that is subsequently approved by Shareholders is excluded from the total number of issued securities used to calculate the 15% Limit. Accordingly, by seeking approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.4 for a prior issue of securities, the Company retains the ability to issue up to 15% of its issued capital to take advantage of any future capital raising and other opportunities that may require an issue of securities.

Outlined below is the information in relation to the Shares issued required to be provided to Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.5 for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.4:

  • (a) up to 6,857,143 fully paid ordinary shares were issued;

  • (b) the Shares were issued at an issue price of $0.175 per Share;

  • (c) the Shares rank pari passu with existing Shares;

  • (d) the Shares were issued to DWS Investments; and

  • (e) the funds raised from the issue of the Shares will in part be used to fund the OPT-302 program to the completion of Phase 2a clinical trial and to accelerate partnership opportunities to advance VGX-100.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that all Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 5, approving the ratification of the Shares issued to DWS Investments.

8. Issue of options to corporate adviser

Background

The Company proposes to issue up to 19,453,206 fully paid ordinary shares and up to 9,726,603 accompanying free options over fully paid ordinary shares to eligible Shareholders under a nonrenounceable entitlement offer as set out in the Company's announcement released to ASX on 6 October 2014 ( Entitlement Offer ).

The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by Bell Potter Securities Limited ( Bell Potter ). Under the terms of the underwriting agreement between Circadian and Bell Potter, if the aggregate amount raised by Circadian under the Placement and Entitlement Offer is at least $12.5 million, Circadian and Bell Potter agree to negotiate in good faith and enter into a separate corporate advisory agreement. The corporate advisory agreement will include an obligation on Circadian to issue Bell Potter (or its nominee) 1 million options for no consideration within ten business days of the date of execution of the corporate advisory agreement (currently expected to be on or around 19 December 2014). The options are exercisable at of $0.2625 per option.

ASX Listing Rule 7.1

Under ASX Listing Rule 7.1, an entity must not issue, or agree to issue, more than 15% of its capital in any 12 month period without the approval of its Shareholders.

The effect of Resolution 6 will be to allow Circadian the ability to issue the options to Bell Potter without using any of the Company's annual 15% placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1 and thereby allow the Company to take advantage of any future capital raising and other opportunities that may require an issue of securities.

Outlined below is the information in relation to the options to be issued to Bell Potter required to be provided to Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 7.3 for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 7.1:

  • (a) the maximum number of securities to be issued to Bell Potter is 1,000,000 options over fully paid ordinary shares;

  • (b) the options will be issued on or about 19 December 2014;

  • (c) the options will be issued for nil consideration;

  • (d) subject to the execution of the corporate advisory agreement between the Company and Bell Potter, the options will be issued to Bell Potter (or its nominee); and

  • (c) the options have an exercise price of $0.2625 per option and are exercisable between the first and third anniversary of the date of execution of the corporate advisory agreement.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that all Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 6, approving the issue of the options to Bell Potter.

9. Long Term Incentive Plan

Background

The Directors have determined that a new long term incentive plan ( LTIP ) should be implemented to attract, retain and motivate eligible employees which is essential to the continued growth and development of the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9

ASX Listing Rule 7.2 exception 9 provides that ASX Listing Rule 7.1 does not apply in respect of the issue of securities by the Company under an employee incentive scheme if the issue of securities under the scheme has been approved by Shareholders as an exception to ASX Listing Rule 7.1, within 3 years before the date of issue of the relevant securities. Accordingly, Shareholder approval of the Company's LTIP is sought to ensure that securities issued under the LTIP do not count towards the 15% Limit.

A summary of the terms of the LTIP is as follows:

Eligibility

The Board may offer options to acquire shares in the Company ( Options ) or rights to acquire shares in the Company ( Rights ), to full or part-time employees (including executive Directors) of the Company or any associated body corporate of the Company ( Employees ).

Subject to Circadian's constitution, the Board is also able to determine the terms of issue that will apply to any offers, including the issue price (if any), exercise price, exercise period and the restrictions (if any) on the exercise of the Options or Rights.

Entitlement

Each Option or Right will, upon vesting and exercise or conversion, entitle the holder to subscribe for and be issued one fully paid ordinary Share in the capital of the Company. When issued, each Share will rank equally with all other Shares then on issue.

Issue of Options or Rights

Unless otherwise determined by the Board, there is no issue price for the Options or Rights.

Vesting

The Board will set the conditions (if any) under which the Options and Rights issued under the LTIP will vest.

Transfer of Options or Rights

Options or Rights may not be transferred except in the following circumstances:

  • (a) following an acceptance of an offer made under an off-market bid relating to the Options or Rights;

  • (b) to a bidder on the sale of the Options or Rights under Division 3 of Part 6A.1 of the Corporations Act;

  • (c) to a 100% holder on the sale of the Options or Rights under Division 2 of Part 6A.2 of the Corporations Act;

  • (d) a transfer under Part 6A.3 of the Corporations Act to a person entitled to acquire the Options or Rights under section 661A or 664A of the Corporations Act; or

  • (e) as approved by the Board in those circumstances as may be determined by the Board.

Conditions

Subject to the discretion of the Board, conditions may be imposed on the exercise of Options.

Page 17 of 23

Term

The Option term will be fixed by the Board at the time of issue but if the offer does not specify a fixed date as the last date on which the Option may be exercised, the Option will expire five years from the date of issue.

Lapse of Options or Rights

The Board may provide the Options or Rights will lapse on the occurrence any of the following circumstances:

  • (a) a determination of the Board that the vesting conditions (if any) applicable have not been satisfied or are not capable of being satisfied in accordance with the terms of the Options or Rights;

  • (b) the Employee ceases to be employed within the Group for any reason or in any circumstances (including as a result of his or her termination for cause or resignation or will cease or ceases to be employed because of poor or inadequate performance);

  • (c) a determination of the Board that the Option or Rights should lapse because the Employee, in the Board's opinion:

  • (i) has been, or could be, dismissed or removed from office for a reason which entitles a Group Company to dismiss the Employee without notice;

  • (ii) has committed an act of fraud, misappropriation or serious misconduct in relation to the affairs of the Group or any Group Company (whether or not charged with an offence); or

  • (iii) has done an act which brings the Group or any Group Company into disrepute or causes material damage to any Group Company;

  • (iv) has been convicted on indictment of an offence against the Corporations Act in connection with the affairs of the Company or any Group Company;

  • (v) has had a judgement entered against him or her in civil proceedings in respect of the contravention by the Employee off his or her duties at law, in equity or under statute in his or her capacity as an executive or Director of the Company or any other Group Company;

  • (vi) has materially breached his or her obligations to any Group Company;

  • (vii) has performed below expectations or requirements (whether or not any performance-based vesting conditions have been or are likely to be met);

  • (viii) has materially breached any policy of the Company (including, without limitation, the trading policy or the Company's policy (if any) on the hedging of long term incentives) or of any Group Company; or

  • (ix) has dealt with the Options or Rights in breach of the rules of the LTIP;

  • (d) on the happening of any other circumstance determined by the Board and specified in the offer as a circumstance that will cause an Option or Right (vested or unvested) to lapse; and

  • (e) in the opinion of the Board, the Options or Rights are liable to clawback under any clawback policy of the Company.

In addition, in relation to unvested Options or Rights, the Board may determine that the Options or Rights will lapse in the event of a corporate control event (as defined in the rules of the LTIP).

If an Employee fails to exercise any vested Options by the last exercise date, those Options will lapse.

Page 18 of 23

Exercise Price

The exercise price for an Option (if any) will be the amount determined by the Board at the time of the issue of the Option. The exercise price will be set out in the offer. If an Employee elects to exercise a partial amount of the Options issued to him or her, the number must be in multiples of 100 (unless otherwise determined by the Board).

New issue of Securities

An Employee may only participate in new issues of securities in the Company offered to Shareholders if:

  • (a) in the case of Options, his or her Options have vested and been exercised, and Shares have been issued in respect of the Options; and

  • (b) in the case of Rights, his or her Rights have vested and been converted, and Shares have been issued in respect of the Rights.

Rights issues

If the Company makes a pro rata rights issue of Shares for cash to Shareholders, there is a provision for adjustment of the Option entitlement and the exercise price of unexercised Options in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules to reflect the diluted effect of the issue.

In respect of Rights, the Board may determine whether any adjustment will be made to the terms of the Rights (including whether or not there will be any resulting increase in the number of Shares to which the Employee will be entitled on vesting of the Right and the manner in which any such increase will be calculated).

Capital Reorganisations

If there is a reorganisation of the Share capital of the Company, then the rights of the Option or Right holder (including the number of Options or Rights to which each Option or Right holder is entitled to and in the case of Options the exercise price) will be amended to the extent necessary to comply with the ASX Listing Rules applying to a reorganisation of capital at the time of the reorganisation. In the case of Rights, the amendment will be made on the same basis as required by the ASX Listing Rules applying to Options.

Corporate control events

The Board may determine that where a corporate control event (as defined in the rules of the LTIP, which includes a takeover offer) has occurred or occurs in the future, all of a specified portion of any unvested Options or Rights will be taken to be vested and any first or last exercise dates applicable to Options or any share allocation date or period applicable to Rights, will be brought forward to an earlier date or period determined by the Board.

Limit of LTIP

The number of Shares to be received on exercise of an Option or conversion of a Right which is the subject of an offer when aggregated with:

  • (a) the number of Shares which would be issued were each outstanding offer with respect to Shares, units of Shares and options or rights to acquire unissued Shares, under an employee share scheme of the Company, to be accepted, exercised or converted (as the case maybe); and

  • (b) the number of Shares in the same class issued during the previous five years pursuant to the LTIP or any other employee share scheme extended only to eligible employees of the Company;

but disregarding any offer made, or option or right acquired or Share or unit of Share issued by way of or as a result of an offer:

  • (c) to a person situated at the time of receipt of the offer outside Australia; or

Page 19 of 23

  • (d) that was an excluded offer or invitation within the meaning of the Corporations Act as in force before the commencement of Schedule 1 to the Corporate Law Economic Reform Program Act 1999; or

  • (e) that did not need disclosure to investors because of section 708 of the Corporations Act; or

  • (f) that did not require the giving of a product disclosure statement because of section 1012D of the Corporations Act; or

  • (g) made under a disclosure document or product disclosure statement,

must not exceed 5% of the total number of issued Shares in that class as at the time of the offer.

Right to attend or vote at general meetings

Subject to the Corporations Act and Circadian's constitution, holders of Options or Rights will not have any right to attend or vote at general meetings of holders of Shares.

Amendment

The rules of the LTIP may be amended by the Board at any time in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules. Subject to certain exceptions specified in the rules of the LTIP, if in the opinion of the Board the proposed amendment would materially adversely affect the existing rights of Employees in respect of any Options or Rights then held by them, the Board must before making the amendment obtain the consent of holders or Options or Rights (as the case maybe) who between them hold not less than 75% of the total number of the Options or Rights in respect of which the holders rights would be adversely affected by the proposed amendment.

No quotation

The Company will not apply to the ASX for official quotation of Options or Rights under the LTIP.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that all Shareholders vote in favour of Resolution 7, approving the issue of the Options or Rights under the LTIP.

10. Issue of options to Megan Baldwin under the LTIP

Background

The Board considers the motivation of the Managing Director and CEO, Megan Baldwin, vital to the Company's long term performance.

Following the annual review of performance for the year ended 30 June 2014, the Board approved, subject to receipt of necessary Shareholder approval, to grant Megan Baldwin 1,500,000 options under the LTIP subject to certain vesting conditions and exercise conditions. The options are to be issued for no cash consideration and with a zero exercise price.

The vesting and exercise conditions are as follows:

  • (a) the options will be granted and issued to Ms Baldwin on the same date the shares are issued to investors under tranche 2 of the Placement (currently expected to be on or about 25 November);

  • (b) the options will vest on the date being 6 months from the date the options are granted;

  • (c) the options will lapse if prior to the vesting date, Ms Baldwin's employment with the Company is terminated (for cause or otherwise, unless otherwise determined by the Board) or she resigns from the Company;

  • (d) once vested, the options are exercisable any time during the three years after the date the options have vested; and

Page 20 of 23

  • (e) the Shares issued on exercise of the options are not transferable for 12 months from the date of issue of the Shares.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit a Director of the Company to acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of its Shareholders.

The Board believes that the options to be issued to the CEO and Managing Director of Circadian are designed to provide a long term incentive to pursue the growth and success of Circadian. Accordingly, Resolution 7 is being put to Shareholders for the purpose of approving the issue of the options over fully paid ordinary shares pursuant to the LTIP to Ms Baldwin.

Outlined below is the additional information in relation to the options to be issued to Ms Baldwin required to be provided to Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.15 for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14:

  • (a) the maximum number of options that can be awarded to Ms Baldwin under this approval is 1,500,000 options;

  • (b) the LTIP is a new plan which means there have been no recipients of options under this LTIP ;

  • (c) no other Director (excluding the Managing Director) is entitled to participate in the LTIP;

  • (d) there is no loan proposed in relation to the proposed issue of options to Ms Baldwin; and

  • (e) Circadian intends to issue the options to Ms Baldwin within 12 months after the date of this meeting.

Recommendation

The Board (excluding Megan Baldwin) has agreed to approve the issue of options to Ms Baldwin to provide an incentive to improve the performance of the Company and, in turn, create Shareholder value. The Board (excluding Megan Baldwin) considers the issue of options to Ms Baldwin in these circumstances to be appropriate and reasonable and recommends you vote in favour of Resolution 8.

11. Approval of non-executive Director share and option plan

Background

The Board is proposing to implement a non-executive director share and option plan ( NED Plan ) under which present and future non-executive Directors may:

  • (a) elect to receive newly issued Shares or options to acquire newly issued Shares in lieu of receiving some or all of their entitlement to their Director's existing cash remuneration (in accordance with article 61.8 of the Company's constitution) ( Securities Issued In Lieu );

  • (b) be awarded newly issued Shares or options to acquire newly issued Shares in lieu of additional cash remuneration in respect of services provided to the Company which in the opinion of the Board are outside the scope of the ordinary duties of the relevant Director (in accordance with article 61.5 of the Company's constitution); and/or

  • (c) otherwise be awarded newly issued Shares or options to acquire newly issued Shares as part of the Directors' remuneration in addition to any existing cash remuneration paid to Directors (if any).

Advantages in approving the adoption of the NED Plan are that it:

  • (a) assists the Company in preserving its cash for use towards advancing the Company's lead molecule, OPT-302, for wet AMD through Phase 1 and 2A clinical studies;

Page 21 of 23

  • (b) gives non-executive Directors an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment and support for the Company through sacrificing some or all of their Director's fees for Shares or options in Circadian; and

  • (c) provides the Company with further flexibility in the design of the Directors' remuneration packages and in turn assists the Company with retaining existing Directors and attracting new additional Directors with the relevant experience and expertise, in both cases to further advance the prospects of the Company.

ASX Listing Rule 10.14

ASX Listing Rule 10.14 provides that an entity must not permit a Director of the Company to acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without the approval of its Shareholders. Accordingly, Resolution 8 is being put to Shareholders for the purpose of approving the nonexecutive Director share and option plan and the acquisition of fully paid ordinary shares and options over fully paid ordinary shares, pursuant to the NED Plan, to non-executive Directors over the next 3 years from the date of this meeting.

Outlined below is the additional information in relation to the NED Plan and Shares and options to be acquired under the NED Plan required to be provided to Shareholders pursuant to ASX Listing Rule 10.15A for the purposes of obtaining Shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.14:

  • (a) Shares and options will only be acquired by participating non-executive Directors pursuant to the NED Plan, as determined by the Board from time to time;

  • (b) the maximum number of Shares and options that can be acquired by participating nonexecutive Directors under this approval is 1.5 million Shares and options (in aggregate);

  • (c) no monetary consideration will be payable by non-executive Directors for the issue of the Shares or options issued under the NED Plan, however the number and deemed price (for the purposes of calculating the number) of Shares or options acquired under the NED Plan will be in accordance with the following formula:

A

B

where:

  • (i) in the case of Securities Issued In Lieu, A is equal to the dollar value nominated by the participating non-executive Director;

  • (ii) in all other cases, A is equal to the dollar value of the award to be granted to the participating non-executive Director (such dollar value to be determined by the Board in its absolute discretion); and

  • (iii) B is the by reference to the volume weighted average price of ordinary shares quoted on the ASX on the 5 trading days preceding the date of determination of the award by the Board;

  • (d) the NED Plan is a new share and option plan which means there have been no recipients of Shares or options under this NED Plan and no persons received any Shares under the 2008 Circadian Technologies Limited Non-Executive Director Share Plan (which was approved at the Company's 2008 annual general meeting);

  • (e) current non-executive Directors (being Dominique Fisher, Tina McMeckan and Russell Howard who are in office immediately prior to this annual general meeting) may be entitled to participate in the NED Plan (at the absolute discretion of the Directors);

Page 22 of 23

  • (f) the Company will not grant any loans in connection with the acquisition of Shares or options under the NED Plan; and

  • (g) Circadian intends to issue the Shares and options under the NED Plan to participating nonexecutive Directors within 3 years after the date of this meeting.

Statement

Details of any Shares and options issued under the NED Plan will be published in each annual report of the Company relating to the period in which the Shares and options are issued and it will be noted that approval for the issue of the Shares and options was obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. If any additional persons become entitled to participate in the NED Plan after this Resolution is approved and who were not named in the Notice, such person will not participate until approval is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

Recommendation

Each of Dominique Fisher, Tina McMeckan and Russell Howard decline to make a recommendation to Shareholders in relation to this Resolution so as to avoid any perceived conflict of interest in making a recommendation on the approval of the non-executive Director NED Plan and the subsequent acquisition of Shares and options by non-executive Directors pursuant to the NED Plan. Megan Baldwin (being the only Director not eligible to participate in the NED Plan), considers the approval of the plan and the subsequent acquisition of Shares and options in these circumstances to be appropriate and reasonable and recommends you vote in favour of Resolution 9.
