Binding Head of Agreement and Placement
As announced on 12 September 2018, the Company entered into a binding Heads of Agreement (“HOA”) to acquire two Australian-based companies, CHOOSE Digital Pty Ltd (“CHOOSE Digital”) and RooLife Limited (“RooLife”).
Under the HOA, the acquisition of both companies (“Acquisition”) forms part of a single transaction which is conditional, amongst other things, on due diligence and OpenDNA shareholder approval.
OpenDNA has also received firm commitments to place a total of 71,428,571 new fully paid ordinary shares (“Shares”) to sophisticated and professional investors at $0.035 per Share, together with one free attaching option for every two Shares (“Options”), to raise a total of up to $2.5 million before costs (“Placement”).
The Options will have an exercise price of $0.05 per Share and an expiry date of 31 October 2021. Funds raised from the Placement will be used to complete the Acquisition and to provide working capital for the enlarged OpenDNA business, with a focus on unlocking strategic benefits between OpenDNA, CHOOSE Digital and RooLife and driving associated revenue opportunities.

Binding Option Agreement
In parallel to the HOA, OpenDNA has also entered into a binding agreement (“Option Agreement”) with Orcoda Limited (“Orcoda”), pursuant to which the Company has obtained the exclusive option for a period of 90 days to acquire an existing Hong Kong and Chinese corporate structure which will facilitate deployment into China of the RooLife business model.
The Option Agreement replaces a previous exclusivity arrangement which had been secured by the Acquisition vendors and involves the upfront payment to Orcoda of a $50,000 exclusive option fee followed by a further acquisition payment of $150,000 should the Company elect to exercise its option. Subject to satisfactory due diligence, the intention is that the option would be exercised contemporaneously with Completion of the Acquisition.
Tranche 1 Placement
On 28 September 2018, the Company announced that it had completed the first tranche of the placement of securities to sophisticated and professional investors described above, successfully raising $400,000 before costs.
The first tranche of the Placement has been completed utilising the Company’s existing placement capacity under ASX Listing Rules 7.1 and 7.1A. A total of 11,428,571 new Shares having an issue price of $0.035 per Share, together with 5,714,286 free attaching Options (on a 1 for 2 basis) having an exercise price of $0.05 and an expiry date of 31 October 2021, have been issued pursuant to tranche 1. Of these securities, 3,724,418 Shares were issued under Listing Rule 7.1A and the balance were issued under Listing Rule 7.1.
At the same time, 6,783,936 Shares at a deemed value of $0.035 per Share and a further 1.5 million Options have been issued by the Company under Listing Rules 7.1A and 7.1, respectively, to settle outstanding amounts due to various creditors who include professional advisors and employees of the Company.
All of the Shares issued are on the same terms as, and rank equally in all respects with, the existing fully paid ordinary shares in the Company.
Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company finalised the notice of meeting for its Annual General Meeting (to be held on 23 November 2018), included in which are resolutions seeking the approval of OpenDNA shareholders to proceed with the second tranche of the Placement which will raise a further $2.1 million before costs.
Research and Development Tax Credit Relief Claim
During the quarter, the Company received $289,000 refund in respect to its Research and Development Tax Credit Relief Claim. The claim covers eligible research and development costs for the year ended 30 June 2018.
