Placement Completed

Perth, Australia; 13 December 2016 : Regenerative medicine company Orthocell Limited (Orthocell or the Company) is pleased to announce that it has, today, issued 10,000,000 shares at $0.40 per share raising $4 million, on completion of the placement announced on 7 December 2016. Details of the issue are set out in the Appendix 3B lodged today.

Orthocell provides the following information pursuant to Listing Rule 3.10.5A:

  1. 8,332,500 Shares have been issued pursuant to Orthocell’s Listing Rule 7.1A capacity. The Shares to be issued represent 8.21% of the post placement capital in the Company. Preplacement shareholders overall interests will therefore be diluted by 8.21% following the placement (however some existing shareholders have participated in the placement so their particular interests may have increased or been diluted to a lesser extent).

The remaining 1,667,500 Shares were issued pursuant to Orthocell’s Listing Rule 7.1 capacity.

Further details of the approximate percentage of the issued capital post the Listing Rule 7.1 and 7.1A placement held by pre-placement registered holders are as follows:

Post placement issued capital held by pre-placement registeredholders who did not participate in the 7.1A placement 89.47%
Post placement issued capital held by pre-placement registeredholders who did participate in the 7.1A placement 4.52%
Post placement issued capital held by participants in the 7.1Aplacement who were not registered holders at the time of theplacement 6.01%
  1. Orthocell issued the Shares by way of the placement under ASX Listing Rule 7.1A and not by way of a pro-rata offer as it considers this to be the quickest, most efficient and most certain method for raising funds in the circumstances.

  2. The Placement was not underwritten. The Company will pay a 5% placement fee and has agreed to issue 600,000 options with an exercise price of $0.55 with a 3 year term. Orthocell has also incurred miscellaneous expenses including legal and listing fees in connection with the placement.
