2.5 Risk Factors

Potential investors should be aware that subscribing for Shares in the Company involves a number of risks.

These risks together with other general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities not specifically referred to, may affect the value of the Shares in the future.

3. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

3.1 Offer

Under this Prospectus, the Company invites investors identified by the Directors to apply for up to 1,000 Shares at an issue price of $0.04 per Share to raise up to $40 (before expenses).

The Offer will only be extended to specific parties on invitation from the Directors. Application Forms will only be provided by the Company to these parties.

All of the Shares offered under this Prospectus will rank equally with Shares on issue at the date of this Prospectus.

3.2

Objective

The Company is seeking to raise only a nominal amount of $40 under this Prospectus and, accordingly, the purpose of this Prospectus is not to raise capital.

The primary purpose of this Prospectus is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Shares issued by the Company on 6 November 2023.

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.

3.3

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 $0.04 per Share.

Completed Application Forms and accompanying cheques must be mailed or delivered to the Company as follows:

3.4 Minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription.

3.5 Issue of Shares

Issue of Shares under the Offer will take place as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. Application monies will be held in a separate subscription account until the Shares are issued. This account will be established and kept by the Company in trust for each Applicant. Any interest earned on the application monies will be for the benefit of the Company and will be retained by the Company irrespective of whether any Shares are issued and each Applicant waives the right to claim any interest.

The Directors will determine the recipients of all the Shares. The Directors reserve the right to reject any application 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.

3.6

ASX listing

Application for Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made within 7 days of the date of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as varied by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any Shares and will repay all application monies for the Shares within the time prescribed under the Corporations Act, without interest.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the Shares is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the Shares now offered for subscription.

3.7 Restrictions on the distribution of the Prospectus

The distribution of this Prospectus outside Australia may be restricted by law.

This Offer does not, and is not intended to, constitute an offer in any place or jurisdiction in which, or to any person to whom, it would not be lawful to make such an offer or to issue this Prospectus.

5

5399-07/3319153

Residents of countries outside Australia should consult their professional advisers as to whether any government or other consents are required, or whether any formalities need to be observed should they wish to make an application to take up Shares on the basis of this Prospectus. The return of a duly completed Application Form will be taken to constitute a representation and warranty that there has been no breach of such laws and that all approvals and consents have been obtained.

5. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SHARES

5.1 Rights and liabilities attaching to Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to the 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

8

5399-07/3319153

the Company any amounts that they may determine as reserves, to be 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 securities 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.

9

5399-07/3319153

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.

10

5399-07/3319153

6. RISK FACTORS

6.1 Introduction

The Securities 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 consider the risk factors set out in this Section 5, together with all other information contained in this Prospectus.

The future performance of the Company and the value of the Securities 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 5, 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 Securities. This Section 5 is not intended to provide an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

Before determining whether to invest in the Company you should ensure that you have a sufficient understanding of the risks described in this Section 5 and all of the other information set out in this Prospectus and consider whether an investment in the Company is suitable for you, taking into account your objectives, financial situation and needs.

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.

6.2 Company specific risks

Risk Category Risk
Additional
requirements for
capital
The
Company’s
capital
requirements
depend
on
numerous factors. Given the Company’s early stage
development of its products, and its existing financial
position, the Company is going to require further capital in
addition to the Placement funds received. 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 development programmes 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.

11

5399-07/3319153

Risk Category Risk
Privacy and data
collection risk
The
Company’s
businesses
involve
the
storage,
transmission, and processing of data from clients in order
to provide services to those clients. Personal privacy,
information security, and data protection are significant
issues. The regulatory framework governing the collection,
processing, storage, and use of business information,
particularly information that includes personal data, is
rapidly evolving and any failure or perceived failure to
comply with applicable privacy, security, or data
protection laws, regulations or contractual obligations
may adversely affect the Company’s business.
Protection of
intellectual property
rights
The commercial value of the Company’s intellectual
property assets is dependent on any relevant legal
protections. These legal mechanisms, however, do not
guarantee that the intellectual property will be protected
or that the Company's competitive position will be
maintained. No assurance can be given that employees
or third parties will not breach confidentiality agreements,
infringe or misappropriate the Company's intellectual
property or commercially sensitive information, or that
competitors will not be able to produce non-infringing
competitive products. Competition in retaining and
sustaining protection of technologies and the complex
nature of technologies can lead to expensive and lengthy
disputes for which there can be no guaranteed outcome.
There can be no assurance that any intellectual property
which the Company (or entities it deals with) may have an
interest in now or in the future will afford the Company
commercially significant protection of technologies, or
that any of the projects that may arise from technologies
will have commercial applications.
It is possible that third parties may assert intellectual
property infringement, unfair competition or like claims
against the Company under copyright, trade secret,
patent, or other laws. While the Company is not aware of
any claims of this nature in relation to any of the
intellectual property rights in which it has or will acquire an
interest, such claims, if made, may harm, directly or
indirectly, the Company's business. If the Company is
forced
to
defend
claims
of
intellectual
property
infringement, whether they are with or without merit or are
determined in the Company's favour, the costs of such
litigation may be potentially significant and may divert
management's
attention
from
normal
commercial
operations.
Critical failure Given the nature of the products and services that the
Company provides, any critical failure of any of its
products has the potential to cause damage to the
Company brand and reputation.
In order to mitigate this risk, the Company undertakes
thorough assessment of its products, including the
hardware used in providing its services to ensure any such
risk is minimised.

12

5399-07/3319153

Risk Category Risk
Rapid growth risk The Company aims to experience rapid growth in the
scope of its operating activities as set out in this Prospectus,
which may expand operations in new regions and
countries. This growth is anticipated to result in an
increased level of responsibility which, if unable to be
managed, will result in the Company not being able to
take advantage of market opportunities and execute its
business plan or respond to competitive pressure.
Competition The industry in which the Company operates is subject to
competition, in particular as a result of the nature of the
contracts available. Current or future competitors may
come up with new, better or cheaper products and
solutions. The Company’s competitors include both small
and
medium
enterprises
and
large,
established
corporations or multinationals. Those may decide to enter
the Company’s target markets and be able to fund
aggressive marketing strategies. They may also have
stronger financial capabilities than the Company which
may negatively affect the operating and financial
performance of the business.
Counterparty risk The Company depends on contractual agreements with
third parties, including suppliers and customers, should a
third-party contract fail (such as due to third party
insolvency, fraud and management failure), there is the
potential for negative financial and brand damage.
Reliance
on
key
personnel
The responsibility of overseeing the day-to-day operations
and the strategic management of the Company depends
substantially on its senior management and its key
personnel. There can be no assurance given that there will
be no detrimental impact on the Company if one or more
of these employees cease their employment.
The Company’s future depends, in part, on its ability to
attract and retain key personnel. It may not be able to
hire and retain such personnel at compensation levels
consistent with its existing compensation and salary
structure. Its future also depends on the continued
contributions of its executive management team and
other key management and technical personnel, the loss
of whose services would be difficult to replace. In addition,
the inability to continue to attract appropriately qualified
personnel could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s business.
Supplier
relationships
The Company relies on a small number of key suppliers
and third-party products in connection with the delivery of
its products and services. Any inability of those suppliers to
supply may put at risk the ability of the Company to
perform its customer contracts or to expand its services in
the manner than the Company expects. Further, the
Company’s financial performance may be affected if
third-party providers were to raise the cost of their

13

5399-07/3319153

Risk Category Risk
products and/or services. The Company considers these
risks when identifying its suppliers.
Branding The Company branding is critical for the long-term success
of the businesses. Negative commentary or complaints
may have a damaging impact on its business objectives.
Further, as part of the business model is based on recurring
revenue arising from Virtualplant, poor user experiences
may result in loss of customers, adverse publicity, litigation,
regulatory enquiries, and reduction of use of its products
and services.
Sales cycle The Company primarily markets its products and services
to large enterprise companies. The nature of doing
business with these entities is that the sales cycle can be
long, and it can take 12-18 months to close significant
transactions or to receive payment for invoices issued.
The Company mitigates these risks through its diversified
business model and client base to ensure that it has a mix
of ongoing revenue.

6.3 Industry specific risks

Risk Category Risk
Product liability As with all products, there is no assurance that unforeseen
adverse events or defects will not arise in the Company’s
products. Adverse events could expose the Company to
product liability claims or litigation, resulting in the removal
of regulatory approval for the relevant products and/or
monetary
damages
being
awarded
against
the
Company. In such event, the Company's liability may
exceed the Company's insurance coverage, if any.
Disputes The activities of the Company may result in disputes with
third parties, including, without limitation, the Company’s
investors, competitors, regulators, partners, distributors,
customers, directors, officers and employees, and service
providers. The Company may incur substantial costs in
connection with such disputes.
Further, a change in strategy may involve material and as
yet unanticipated risks, as well as a high degree of risk,
including a higher degree of risk than the Company’s
strategy in place as of the date of this Prospectus.
Loss of customers The Company has established important relationships
through development of its business to date. The loss of
one or more customers through termination or expiry of
contracts may adversely affect the operating results of the
Company.
Litigation The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks
including, but not limited to, intellectual property

14

5399-07/3319153

Risk Category Risk
ownership disputes, contractual claims, environmental
claims, occupational health and safety claims and
employee claims. Further, the Company may be involved
in disputes with other parties in the future which may result
in litigation. Any such claim or dispute if proven, may
impact adversely on the Company’s operations, financial
performance and financial position. The Company is not
currently engaged in any litigation.
Data loss, theft or
corruption
The Company will store data in its own systems and
networks and also with a variety of third party service
providers. Exploitation or hacking of any of the
Company’s systems or networks could lead to corruption,
theft or loss of the data which could have a material
adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial
condition and results. Further, if the Company’s systems,
networks or technology are subject to any type of ‘cyber’
crime, its technology may be perceived as unsecure
which may lead to a decrease in the number of
customers.
The Company adopts security measures considered
appropriate for the nature of the data that it stores and is
constantly reviewing its cyber security arrangements.
Foreign exchange If the Company is successful in expanding its services with
Virtualplant to foreign jurisdictions, it may be required to
accept payment, or pay local service providers or staff in
foreign currencies. 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.
Insurance coverage The Company faces various risks in conducting its business
and may lack adequate insurance coverage or may not
have the relevant insurance coverage. The Company
proposes to arrange and maintain insurance coverage for
its employees, as well as directors’ and officers’ liability
insurance, however it does not currently propose to
arrange and maintain business interruption insurance or
insurance against claims for certain property damage.
The Company will need to review its insurance
requirements periodically. If the Company incurs
substantial losses or liabilities and its insurance coverage is
unavailable or inadequate to cover such losses or
liabilities, the Company’s financial position and financial
performance may be adversely affected.
The Company considers that it has sufficient insurance
policies in place in respect of its business and assets.
However, the occurrence of an event that is not covered
or fully covered by insurance could have a material
adverse effect on the business, financial condition and

15

Risk Category Risk results of the Company.

6.4 General risks

Risk Category Risk
Economic
conditions

political
circumstances
(including wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive
activities, security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder,

interest rates and inflation rates;
(d)
changes in investor sentiment toward particular
market sectors;
(e)
the demand for, and supply of, capital; and
(f)
terrorism or other hostilities.
The market price of securities can fall as well as rise and
may be subject to varied and unpredictable influences on
the market for equities in general and technology or
defence stocks in particular. Neither the Company nor
the Directors warrant the future performance of the
Company or any return on an investment in the Company.
The value of the Shares may fluctuate more sharply than
that of other securities, given the low per Share pricing of
the Shares under the Prospectus, and the fact that
investment in the Company is highly speculative.
Taxation risk The acquisition and disposal of Shares will have tax
consequences for investors, which will vary depending on
the individual financial affairs of each investor. All
potential investors in the Company are urged to obtain
independent professional taxation and financial advice
about the consequences of acquiring and disposing of
Securities from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

6.5 Speculative investment

The risk factors described above, and other risks factors not specifically referred to, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of the Company and the value of the Securities.

7. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

7.1 Litigation

As at the date of this Prospectus, the Company is not involved in any legal proceedings and the Directors are not aware of any legal proceedings pending or threatened against the Company.

7.2

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 Company’s securities.

This Prospectus is a “transaction specific prospectus”. In general terms a “transaction specific prospectus” is only required to contain information in relation to the effect of the issue of securities on the 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.

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 3 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.

Information that is already in the public domain has not been reported in this Prospectus other than that which is considered necessary to make this Prospectus complete.

The Company, as a disclosing entity under the Corporations Act states that:

  • (a) it is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations;

  • (b) copies of documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company (not being documents referred to in section 1274(2)(a) of the Corporations Act) may be obtained from, or inspected at, the offices of the ASIC; and

  • (c) it will provide a copy of each of the following documents, free of charge, to any person on request between the date of issue of this Prospectus and the Closing Date:

(i) the annual financial report most recently lodged by the Company with the ASIC;

18

5399-07/3319153

  • (ii) any half-year financial report lodged by the Company with the ASIC after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC; and

  • (iii) any continuous disclosure documents given by the Company to ASX in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules as referred to in section 674(1) of the Corporations Act after the lodgement of the annual financial report referred to in (i) and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

Copies of all documents lodged with the ASIC in relation to the Company can be inspected at the registered office of the Company or an ASIC office during normal office hours.

Details of documents lodged with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the table below :

Other than as set out below or elsewhere in this Prospectus, no Director nor any firm in which such a Director is a partner, has or had within 2 years before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC, any interest in:

  • (a) the formation or promotion of the Company;

  • (b) property acquired or proposed to be acquired by the Company in connection with its formation or promotion or the Offer pursuant to this Prospectus; or

  • (c) the Offer,

and no amounts have been paid or agreed to be paid (in cash or Shares or otherwise) to any Director or to any firm in which any such Director is a partner or director, either to induce them to become, or to qualify them as, a Director or otherwise for services rendered by them or by the firm in connection with the formation or promotion of the Company or the Offer.

Security holdings

The relevant interest of each of the Directors in the securities of the Company as at the date of this Prospectus is set out in the table below.

Director Shares Options
Chris Sutherland 1,126,929 3,906,733
Stephen Brown 13,587,639 1,100,000

Sue Murphy 50,000 3,000,000

Remuneration

The remuneration of an executive Director is decided by the Board, without the affected executive Director participating in that decision-making process. The total maximum remuneration of non-executive Directors is initially set by the Constitution and subsequent variation is by ordinary resolution of Shareholders in general meeting in accordance with the Constitution, the Corporations Act and

20

5399-07/3319153

the ASX Listing Rules, as applicable. 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 $350,000 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.

The following table shows the total (and proposed) annual remuneration paid to both executive and non-executive directors.

Director FY ending 30
**June 2024($)1 **

Sue Murphy 45,814 81,986 NA

Notes:

  1. Since September 2023, with their agreement, none of the Directors have been paid fees relating to their services as Directors.

  2. For details of the breakdown of remuneration, refer to the Company’s Annual Report for the financial year ended 30 June 2023. In the estimate above, we have assumed that Director fees recommence 1 January 2023.

During the 24 months preceding lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC, Steinepreis Paganin has been paid fees totalling $30,751 (excluding GST and disbursements) for legal services provided to the Company.

7.6 Consents

Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act imposes a liability regime on the Company (as the offeror of the Securities), the Directors, the persons named in the Prospectus with their consent as Proposed Directors, any underwriters, persons named in the Prospectus with their consent having made a statement in the Prospectus and persons involved in a contravention in relation to the Prospectus, with regard to misleading and deceptive statements made in the Prospectus, Although the Company bears primary responsibility for the Prospectus, the other parties involved in the preparation of the Prospectus can also be responsible for certain statements made in it.

Each of the parties referred to in this Section:

  • (a) does not make, or purport to make, any statement in this Prospectus other than those referred to in this Section; and

  • (b) in light of the above, only to the maximum extent permitted by law, expressly disclaims and takes no responsibility for any part of this Prospectus other than a reference to its name and a statement included in this Prospectus with the consent of that party as specified in this Section.

Steinepreis Paganin has given its written consent to being named as the solicitors to the Company in this Prospectus. Steinepreis Paganin has not withdrawn its consent prior to the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC.

7.7 Estimated expenses of Offer

7.8 Electronic Prospectus

ASIC has exempted compliance with certain provisions of the Corporations Act to allow distribution of an electronic prospectus and electronic application form on the basis of a paper prospectus lodged with the ASIC, and the publication of

22

5399-07/3319153

notices referring to an electronic prospectus or electronic application form, subject to compliance with certain conditions.

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Application Form. If you have not, please phone the Company on + 61 8 6118 5610 and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of the Prospectus, or both.

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or Prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

7.9 Clearing House Electronic Sub-Register System (CHESS) and Issuer Sponsorship

The Company will not be issuing Share certificates. The Company is a participant in CHESS, for those investors who have, or wish to have, a sponsoring stockbroker. Investors who do not wish to participate through CHESS will be issuer sponsored by the Company. Because the sub-registers are electronic, ownership of securities can be transferred without having to rely upon paper documentation.

Electronic registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with a statement (similar to a bank account statement) that sets out the number of Shares issued to them under this Prospectus. The notice will also advise holders of their Holder Identification Number or Security Holder Reference Number and explain, for future reference, the sale and purchase procedures under CHESS and issuer sponsorship.

Further monthly statements will be provided to holders if there have been any changes in their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

7.10 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for Shares, you will be providing personal information to the Company. The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a Shareholder, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s Share Registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) (as amended), the Corporations Act and certain rules such as the ASX Settlement Operating Rules. You should note that if you do not provide the information required on the application for Shares, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.
