Page | 6

The rights attaching to the Previous Shares are identical in all respects to the existing ordinary shares on issue in the Company.

The funds raised by the issue are being, and will be, used by the Company to provide working capital to the Company.

8. RESOLUTIONS 6, 7 AND 8 ‐ ISSUE OF OPTIONS TO DIRECTORS

Introduction

The Directors have resolved to refer to members for approval the proposed grant of 2,000,000 Options to Mr Robert Mosig, 1,000,000 Options to Dr John Ferguson and 250,000 Options to Mr Brian Moller, (or their respective nominees) each a Director of the Company, exercisable at $1.40 each ( Options ). The terms of the Options are set out in more detail below.

Approval for the issue of the Options is sought in accordance with the provisions of Listing Rule 10.11 and Part 2E of the Corporations Act. If approval is given under Listing Rule 10.11, approval will not be required under Listing Rule 7.1.

Option Terms

A summary of the material terms of the Options is set out below:

  • The securities to be issued are Options to subscribe for fully paid ordinary shares in the capital of the Company ( Shares ).

  • The Options are to be issued for no consideration.

  • The exercise price of each Option is one dollar and forty cents ($1.40) ( Exercise Price );

  • The Options will expire on 31 December 2010 ( Expiry Date ) unless earlier exercised;

Page | 7

  • Shares issued on exercise of the Options will rank pari passu with all existing Shares of the Company from the date of issue.

  • The Options may be exercised at any time wholly or in part by delivering a duly completed form of notice of exercise together with a cheque for the Exercise Price per Option to the Company at any time on or after the date of issue of the Options and on or before the Expiry Date;

  • The number of Options that may be exercised at one time must be not less than 1,000;

  • The Options shall be unlisted.

  • Option holders do not participate in dividends unless the Options are exercised.

  • While the Option holders do not have any right to participate in new issues of securities in the Company to shareholders generally, the Option holders will be afforded the period of at least ten (10) business days’ notice prior to and inclusive of the books record date (to determine entitlements to the issue) to exercise the Options;

  • Following the issue of the Options, in the event of any reconstruction (including consolidation, subdivision, reduction or return) of the issued capital of the Company:

  • (a) The number of Options, the exercise price of the Options, or both will be reconstructed (as appropriate) in a manner consistent with the ASX Listing Rules, but with the intention that such reconstruction will not result in any benefits being conferred on the holders of the Options which are not conferred on shareholders; and

  • (b) Subject to the provisions with respect to rounding of entitlements as sanctioned by a meeting of shareholders approving a reconstruction of capital, in all other respects the terms for the exercise of the Options will remain unchanged.

If there is a pro rata issue (except a bonus issue), the Exercise Price of an Option may be reduced according to the following formula:

O[n] = O – E [P‐(S + D)]

N + 1

Where:

  • O[n] = the new exercise price of the Option;

  • O = the old exercise price of the Option;

  • E = the number of underlying securities into which one Option is exercisable;

  • P = the average market price per security (weighted by reference to volume) of the underlying securities during the 5 trading days ending on the day before the ex right date or the ex entitlements date;

  • S = the subscription price for a security under the pro rata issue;

  • D = dividend due but not yet paid on the existing underlying securities (except those to be issued under the pro rata issue);

  • N = the number of securities with rights or entitlements that must be held to receive a right to one new security.

Page | 8

  • If there is a bonus issue to the holders of shares in the Company, the number of shares over which the Option is exercisable may be increased by the number of shares which the Option holder would have received if the Option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue;

  • The terms of the Options shall only be changed if holders (whose votes are not to be disregarded) of ordinary shares in the Company approve of such a change. However, the terms of the Options shall not be changed to reduce the Exercise Price, increase the number of Options or change any period for exercise of the Options;

  • The Company does not intend to apply for listing of the Options on the ASX; and

  • The Company shall apply for listing of the resultant shares of the Company issued upon exercise of any Option.

Regulatory Requirements

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act

Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act prohibits a public company from giving a financial benefit to a related party of a public company unless the benefit falls within one of various exceptions to the general prohibition. One of the exceptions includes where the company first obtains the approval of its shareholders in general meeting in circumstances where the requirements of Chapter 2E in relation to the convening of that meeting have been met.

A “related party” for the purposes of the Corporations Act is defined widely and includes a director of a public company.

A “financial benefit” for the purposes of the Corporations Act has a very wide meaning. It includes the public company paying money or issuing securities to the related party. In determining whether or not a financial benefit is being given, it is necessary to look to the economic and commercial substance and effect of what the public company is doing (rather than just the legal form). Any consideration which is given for the financial benefit is to be disregarded, even if it is full or adequate.

The proposed resolutions, if passed, will confer financial benefits to Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller and the Company seeks to obtain shareholder approval in accordance with the requirements of Chapter 2E of the Corporations Act and for this reason and for all other purposes the following information is provided to shareholders.

(a) The related party to whom resolutions 6, 7 and 8 would permit the financial benefit to be given

Each of Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller (or their respective nominees), being Directors of the Company.

(b) The nature of the financial benefit

The nature of the proposed financial benefit to be given is:

  • The grant of 2,000,000 Options to Mr Robert Mosig, 1,000,000 Options to Dr Ferguson and 250,000 Options to Mr Brian Moller as referred to in Resolutions 6, 7 and 8;

  • The Options shall be granted for no cash consideration; and

  • The Options shall be exercisable into fully paid Shares an exercise price of $1.40 each exerciseable on or before 31 December 2010.

Page | 9

(c) Directors’ recommendation

With respect to Resolution 6, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller ( the Disinterested Directors ) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this resolution. The reasons for their recommendation include:

  • (i) the grant of the Options as proposed to Mr Mosig will provide Mr Mosig with reward and incentive for future services he will provide to the Company to further the progress of the Company.

  • (ii) the Options are not intended as a substitute for salary or wages or as a means for compensation for past services rendered; and

  • (iii) in the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors considered that the incentive provided a cost‐effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.

As Mr Mosig is interested in the outcome of Resolution 6, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this resolution.

With respect to Resolution 7, Mr Mosig and Mr Moller ( the Disinterested Directors ) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this resolution. The reasons for their recommendation include:

  • (i) the grant of the Options as proposed to Dr Ferguson will provide Dr Ferguson with reward and incentive for future services he will provide to the Company to further the progress of the Company.

  • (ii) the Options are not intended as a substitute for salary or wages or as a means for compensation for past services rendered; and

  • (iii) in the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors considered that the incentive provided a cost‐effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.

As Dr Ferguson is interested in the outcome of Resolution 7, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this resolution.

With respect to Resolution 8, Mr Mosig and Dr Ferguson ( the Disinterested Directors ) recommend that shareholders vote in favour of this resolution. The reasons for their recommendation include:

  • (i) the grant of the Options as proposed to Mr Moller will provide Mr Moller with reward and incentive for future services he will provide to the Company to further the progress of the Company.

  • (ii) the Options are not intended as a substitute for salary or wages or as a means for compensation for past services rendered; and

Page | 10

  • (iii) in the Company’s circumstances as they existed as at the date of this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors considered that the incentive provided a cost‐effective and efficient incentive as opposed to alternative forms of incentives (eg cash bonuses, increased remuneration). However, it must be recognised that there will be an opportunity cost to the Company, being the price at which the Company could grant the Options to a third party.

As Mr Moller is interested in the outcome of Resolution 8, he accordingly makes no recommendation to shareholders in respect of this resolution.

Notes:

  1. Assuming that all of the 4,038,000 current options on issue are exercised.

(e) Valuation

The Options are not currently quoted on the ASX and as such have no market value. The Options each grant the holder thereof a right of grant of one ordinary share in the Company upon exercise of the Option and payment of the exercise price of the Option described above. Accordingly, the Options may have a present value at the date of their grant.

The Options may acquire future value dependent upon the extent to which the Shares exceed the exercise price of the Options during the term of the Options.

As a general proposition, options to subscribe for ordinary fully paid shares in a company have value. Various factors impact upon the value of options including things such as:

  • the period outstanding before the expiry date of the options;

Page | 12

  • the exercise price of the options relative to the underlying price or value of the securities into which they may be converted;

  • the proportion of the issued capital as expanded consequent upon exercise represented by the shares issued upon exercise (ie whether or not the shares that might be acquired upon exercise of the options represent a controlling or other significant interest);

  • the value of the shares into which the options may be converted; and

  • whether or not the options are listed (ie readily capable of being liquidated);

and so on.

The Company sought an independent valuation of the Options. The method used to value the options was the Black‐Scholes Model, which is the most widely used and recognised model for pricing options. The value of an option calculated by the Black‐Scholes Model is a function of the relationship between a number of variables, being the share price, the exercise price, the time to expiry, the risk‐free interest rate and the volatility of the Company’s underlying share price.

Inherent in the application of the Black‐Scholes Model are a number of inputs, some of which must be assumed. The data relied upon in applying the Black‐Scholes Model was:

  • The exercise price of the options being $1.40;

  • Exercise date being on or before 31 December 2010;

  • A volatility measure of 108.513%;

  • A risk‐free interest rate of 6.49%; and

  • A nil dividend yield

(assumed data).

Some relatively minor variables were included in the calculation to estimate the value of Option as “American style” options (being exercisable at any time prior to the stated expiry date). Theoretically, the Black‐Scholes Model prices “European style” options (being exercisable only on this exercise date).

Based on this information, the Company has adopted an indicative value for the Options of $0.9707 each.

On that basis, the respective value of the Options to be issued pursuant to Resolutions 6, 7 and 8 are as follows:

  • Mr Robert Mosig‐ $1,941,421

  • Dr John Ferguson – $970,711

  • Mr Brian Moller– $242,678

(f) Any other information that is reasonably required by shareholders to make a decision and that is known to the Company or any of its Directors

There is no other information known to the Company or any of its Directors save and except as follows:

Market Price movements:

The option valuation noted above is based on a market price of the Shares at the time of the valuation (8 October 2007).

There is a possibility that the market price of the Shares will change up to the date of the Annual General Meeting.

The effect on the valuation per option of movements in the market price of the Shares is set out below:

Market Price Valuation per option
$0.60 $0.3263
$0.80 $0.4775
$1.00 $0.6366
$1.20 $0.8015
$1.40 $0.9707
$1.60 $1.1434
$1.80 $1.3188
$2.00 $1.4965
$2.20 $1.6761

Opportunity Costs

The opportunity costs and benefits foregone by the Company issuing the Options to Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller is the potentially dilutionary impact on the issued share capital of the Company (in the event that the Options are exercised). Until exercised, the issue of the Options will not impact upon the number of Shares on issue in the Company. To the extent that upon their exercise the dilutionary impact caused by the issue of Shares will be detrimental to the Company, this is more than offset by the advantages accruing from the Company securing the services of an experienced and skilled director on appropriate incentive terms.

It is also considered that the potential increase in the value of the Options is dependent upon a concomitant increase in the value of the Company generally.

Taxation Consequences

No stamp duty will be payable in respect of the grant of the Options. No GST will be payable by the Company in respect of the grant of the Options (or if it is then it will be recoverable as an input credit).

AASB 2 “Share Based Payments” requires that these payments shall be measured at the more readily determinable fair value of the equity instrument. Under the accounting standards this amount will be expensed in the statement of financial performance. Where the grant date and the vesting date are different the total expenditure calculated will be allocated between the two dates taking into account the terms and conditions attached to the instruments and the counterparties as well as management’s assumptions about probabilities of payments and compliance with and attainment of the set out terms and conditions.

Dilutionary Effect

If all of the Options granted are exercised by Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller the following will be the effect on the current issued capital of the Company:

Shareholder Current
Shareholding
% of Total
Share Capital¹
Shareholding upon
Exercise of Options¹

Share Capital
Current Shareholders (other than
Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr
Moller)
36,572,000 98.17 36,572,000 90.30
Mr Mosig 630,000 1.69 2,630,000 6.49
Dr Ferguson 50,000 0.13 1,050,000 2.59
Mr Moller Nil Nil 250,000 0.62
TOTAL 37,252,000 100.00 40,502,000 100.00

Notes:

  1. Assuming that none of the 4,038,000 current options on issue (being 2,100,000 to Mr Robert Mosig, 1,250,000 to Dr John Ferguson, 250,000 to Mr Brian Moller all expiring on 30 June 2010 and 438,000 other options on issue to non‐related parties) are not exercised;

In the event that, in addition to the above, all other existing options on issue (being 4,038,000 options) are exercised, current shareholders would hold 83.09% of 44,540,000 shares then on issue.

Save as set out in this Explanatory Memorandum, the Directors are not aware of any other information that will be reasonably required by shareholders to make a decision in relation to benefits contemplated by resolutions 6, 7 and 8.

Listing Rule 10.11

Listing Rule 10.11 requires an entity to obtain the approval of shareholders to an issue of securities to a related party. Each of Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller, being a Director of the Company, is a related party. Accordingly, because the issue of the Options will result in the Company issuing securities to a related party, approval under Listing Rule 10.11 is required.

For the purposes of Listing Rule 10.13, the Company advises as follows:

  • The maximum number of Options to be issued to Mr Mosig, Dr Ferguson and Mr Moller is 3,250,000 Options.

  • The Options are intended to be granted as soon as possible following the Meeting, but in any event, within 1 month of the date of the Meeting.

  • The Options are being issued for nil consideration.

  • No funds are being raised by the grant of the Options.
