This document is important and should be read in its entirety. If after reading this Prospectus you have any questions about the Shares being offered under this Prospectus or any other matter, then you should consult your professional advisers without delay.

The Shares offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

This Prospectus is dated 5 June 2024 and was lodged with the ASIC on that date. The ASIC, ASX and their respective officers take no responsibility for the contents of this Prospectus or the merits of the investment to which this Prospectus relates.

No Shares may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Shares offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

Applications for Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be submitted on an original Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus and 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.

Representations contained in this Prospectus are made taking into account that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters are publicly available information or may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom prospective investors may consult.

No Investment Advice

The information contained in this Prospectus is not financial product advice or investment advice and does not take into account your financial or investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs (including financial or taxation issues). You should seek professional advice from your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser before deciding to subscribe for Shares under this Prospectus to determine whether it meets your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Forward-looking statements

This Prospectus contains forwardlooking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, the Directors and the Company’s management.

The Company cannot and does not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forwardlooking statements contained in this Prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forwardlooking statements.

The Company has no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the results

expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in Section 4.

Applicants outside Australia

The distribution of this Prospectus in jurisdictions outside Australia may be restricted by law and persons who come into possession of this Prospectus should seek advice on and observe any of these restrictions. Any failure to comply with such restrictions may constitute a violation of applicable securities laws. This Prospectus does not constitute an offer of Shares in any jurisdiction where, or to any person to whom, it would be unlawful to issue in this Prospectus.

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 Shares.

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 three 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.

Please refer to Section 5.2 for further details.

1.4

Objective

The primary purpose of this Prospectus is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Shares issued by the Company without disclosure under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act prior to the Closing Date (including prior to the date of this Prospectus). Accordingly, the Company is seeking to raise only a

1

nominal amount of $33 under this Prospectus as the purpose of this Prospectus is not to raise capital.

The Company is not currently able to issue a cleansing notice under section 708A(5) of the Corporations Act due to its Shares having been suspended from trading on ASX for more than 5 trading days within the last 12 months. Accordingly, the primary purpose of this Prospectus is to remove any on-sale restrictions that may affect Shares that have been issued prior to the date of lodgement and that may be issued by the Company prior to Closing Date.

Relevantly, section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

  • (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities that are quoted securities of the body; and

  • (b) either:

  • (i) a prospectus is lodged with the ASIC on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued but before the day on which the sale offer is made; or

  • (ii) a prospectus is lodged with ASIC before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offers of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued; and

  • (c) the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the body that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

1.5 Application for Shares

Applications for Shares must be made by investors at the direction of the Company and must be made using the Application Form accompanying this Prospectus.

Payment for the Shares must be made in full at the issue price of $0.033 per Share.

1.8 Underwriting

1.9 Issue of Shares

As noted in Section 1.4, the primary purpose of this Prospectus is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Shares issued by the Company without disclosure under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act prior to the Closing Date (including prior to the date of this Prospectus). If the Directors decide to issue Shares under this Prospectus, the issue of Shares under the Offer will be issued in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and will take place as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

Pending the issue of the Shares 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.

The Directors will determine the recipients of all the Shares. The Directors reserve the right to reject any Application Form or to allocate any Applicant fewer Shares than the number applied for. Where the number of Shares issued is less than the number applied for, the surplus monies will be returned by cheque as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Where no issue of Shares is made, the amount tendered on Application will be returned in full by cheque as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Interest will not be paid on monies refunded.

The Company’s decision on the number of Shares to be allocated to an Applicant will be final. Holding statements for Shares issued under the Offer will be mailed as soon as practicable after the issue of Shares as soon as practicable after their issue.

3. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SHARES

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being offered pursuant to this Prospectus. This summary is not exhaustive and does not constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders. To obtain such a statement, persons should seek independent legal advice.

Full details of the rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the Constitution, a copy of which is available for inspection at the Company’s registered office during normal business hours.

(a) General meetings

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).

(c)

Dividend rights

Subject to 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 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

6

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 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 Shares 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.

7

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.

4. RISK FACTORS

4.1 Introduction

The Shares offered under this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative and an investment in the Company is not risk free.

The Directors strongly recommend that prospective investors to consider the risk factors set out in this Section 4, together with information contained in this Prospectus.

The future performance of the Company and the value of the Shares may be influenced by a range of factors, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The key risks associated with the Company’s business, the industry in which it operates and general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities and financial markets generally are described below.

The risks factors set out in this Section 4, or other risk factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Shares. This Section 4 is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

If you do not understand any matters contained in this Prospectus or have any queries about whether to invest in the Company, you should consult your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser.

4.2 Company specific

Risk Category Risk
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 to develop its business. 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 and
scale back its operations as the case may be. 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.
Going Concern The Company’s financial statements for the financial year
ended 30 June 2023 and the half year ended 31
December 2023 include a note on the financial condition
of the Company and the possible existence of a material
uncertainty about the Company’s ability to continue as a
going concern.
Notwithstanding the ‘going concern’ noted included in
the Financial Report, the Directors believe that the
Company will have sufficient funds to adequately meet
the Company’s current commitments and short term
working capital requirements.

9

Risk Category Risk
Technology
and
software risk
The Company’s business is based on software, source
code, technology and computer programs which
comprise its data privacy platforms. There is a risk that this
technology and/or software may be superseded or
displaced in the market by new technology offerings or
software which customers perceive have advantages
over
the
Company’s
offerings.
Furthermore,
the
Company’s systems can be affected by numerous factors
including but not limited to data losses, computer system
faults, failures of or suspension from key data feeds, data
network failures, and catastrophic events such as a natural
disaster, computer viruses of power failure.
Intellectual property
and obligations
There is a risk that failure or inability to protect intellectual
property rights may have a significant adverse effect on
operations, financial performance and competitive
advantage. Further, there is a risk that the operations,
products, services or platforms may infringe the intellectual
property rights of third parties. If any claim of litigation is
bought
against
the
Company
which
alleges
an
infringement on another party’s intellectual property rights,
this could result in the Company being subject to
significant liability for damages or losing the right to use the
intellectual property.
Regulation Regulation relating to the privacy of personal data
continues to evolve in various jurisdictions. Accordingly,
there is an exposure to a range of risks relating to
compliance with, changes to, or uncertainty in, the
relevant legal and regulatory regimes in those jurisdictions.
Changes to laws and regulations or failure to comply may
have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial position, and prospects.
Data risk By their nature, information technology systems are
susceptible to cyber-attacks with third parties seeking
unauthorized access to data, networks, systems and
databases. Further third-party suppliers may receive and
store information from the company or its customers and
although this information is limited and subject to
confidentiality obligations, if third party suppliers fail to
adopt or adhere to robust security practices, any such
information may be improperly accessed, used or
disclosed.
Customer
environment
The Company provides its customers with technology and
data solutions that support data protection and ability to
securely share data between different customers.
Changes in relation to customers perception of the ability
to protect data and cost associated with that may have
a direct financial impact on the Company customers and
therefore an indirect on the Company’s financial
performance.

  • Risk Category Risk Development The Company’s products and services are the subject of continuous development and need to be substantially developed further in order to gain and maintain competitive and technological advantage, and to improve the products’ and services’ usability, scalability and accuracy. There are no guarantees that the Company will be able to undertake such development successfully. Failure to successfully undertake such research and development, anticipate technical problems, or estimate research and development costs or timeframes accurately will adversely affect the Company’s results and viability.

  • Infrastructure and The Company relies on its infrastructure and technology to technology failure provide its customers with a highly reliable service. There may be a failure to deliver this level of service as a result of numerous factors, including human error, power loss, equipment failure, improper maintenance including by landlords and security breaches. Service interruptions, regardless of their cause, may cause contractual and other losses to the Company.

  • Foreign exchange The Company will be operating in a variety of jurisdictions. Consequently, movements in currency exchange rates may adversely or beneficially affect the Company’s results or operations and cash flows. For example, the appreciation or depreciation of the US dollar relative to the Australian dollar would result in a foreign currency loss or gain. Any depreciation of currencies in foreign jurisdictions in which the Company operates may result in lower than anticipated revenue, profit and earnings of the Company.

  • Climate Risk There are a number of climate-related factors that may affect the operations and proposed activities of the Company. The climate change risks particularly attributable to the Company include: (a) the emergence of new or expanded regulations associated with the transitioning to a lower-carbon economy and market changes related to climate change mitigation. The Company may be impacted by changes to local or international compliance regulations related to climate change mitigation efforts, or by specific taxation or penalties for carbon emissions or environmental damage. These examples sit amongst an array of possible restraints on industry that may further impact the Company and its profitability. While the Company will endeavour to manage these risks and limit any consequential impacts, there can be no guarantee that the Company will not be impacted by these occurrences; and

  • (b) climate change may cause certain physical and environmental risks that cannot be predicted by the Company, including events such as increased

11

severity of weather patterns and incidence of
extreme weather events and longer-term physical
risks such as shifting climate patterns. All these risks
associated with climate change may significantly
change the industry in which the Company
operates.

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process.

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 $500,000 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.
