4 Quotation
The options are unlisted and quotation of the options will not be sought, whether on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX) or otherwise.

7 Manner of exercise
- (a) The optionholder may exercise options (in parcels of at least 500,000 options unless the optionholder's holding is less than 500,000 options in which case the optionholder may exercise its entire holding) by forwarding to the Company at its registered office:
- (i) the certificate for those options;
- (ii) an executed notice for the exercise of the options and specifying the number of options exercised; and

- (b) Once given, the exercise notice may only be revoked at the request of the Company with the consent of the optionholder (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). The optionholder must not withhold such consent where the Company has come into possession of Excluded Information (as defined in sections 708A(7) and (8) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth)) and considers it is not in the Company's interests to disclose that Excluded Information under the Corporations Act at that time.

- (c) if the Cleansing Notice for any reason is not effective or if the Company cannot satisfy the requirements in order to give a Cleansing Notice, to ensure that an offer for sale of those Shares does not require disclosure to investors, then at the Company's election:
- (i) the Company must no later than sixty (60) days after the date of issue of those Shares lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of those Shares does not require disclosure to investors; or
- (ii) the Company may request and the optionholder must provide an undertaking to the Company not to sell the relevant Shares in circumstances in which would otherwise require the holder or the Company to issue a disclosure document under the Corporations Act in relation to the sale offer for a period of 12 months after the date of issue.
9 Ranking of Shares
Shares issued on exercise of an option are from the date on which the notice of exercise took effect to rank equally with the then issued Shares except as regards dividends or other distributions payable by reference to a record date prior to the date on which the notice of exercise took effect.
10 Quotation of Shares
- (a) If admitted to the official list of the ASX at the time of exercise of the options, the Company shall apply for the quotation of Shares on ASX (in the form of Chess Depositary Interests) issued pursuant to the exercise of an option within ten Business Days (as such term is defined in the ASX Listing Rules, or, if the Company is not listed on the ASX but is listed on TSX, within ten trading days, as defined in the rules of the TSX) of the date on which the notice of exercise was delivered to the Company.
- (b) If the Company is not listed on ASX at the time of exercise of the options, the Company shall where lawful apply for the quotation of Shares issued on exercise of the options.
11 Transfer
Unless the Board determines otherwise in its absolute discretion, the options may not be transferred by the optionholder.
12 Notice of Expiry Time
While the Company is listed on ASX, it must give the optionholder a notice at least 20 Business Days before the Expiry Time with the information required by the ASX Listing Rules.
+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.
13 Participation in new issues
- (a) The optionholder has no right or entitlement as the holder of an option, without exercising an option and being issued Shares on exercise of an option prior to the record date for the new issue, to participate in new issues of shares offered to the Company's shareholders.
- (b) The Company must, if listed on ASX, give the optionholder prior notice (in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 of Appendix 7A of the Listing Rules (as applicable)) of the new issue of Shares to enable the optionholder to exercise the options and participate in the new issue.
14 Bonus issues
If there is a bonus issue of Shares, the number of Shares over which an option is exercisable increases by the number of Shares which the optionholder would have received if the option had been exercised before the record date for the bonus issue and without any change to the Exercise Price.
15 Options to be reorganised on reorganisation of capital
The following rules shall apply on a reorganisation of capital, unless inconsistent with the ASX Listing Rules at a time when the Company is listed on ASX, in which case the ASX Listing Rules shall prevail:
- (a) in a consolidation of Shares, the number of options must be consolidated in the same ratio as Shares and the Exercise Price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio;
- (b) in a subdivision of Shares, the number of options must be sub-divided in the same ratio as Shares and the Exercise Price must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio;
- (c) in a return of capital to shareholders, the number of options must remain the same, and the Exercise Price of each option must be reduced by the same amount as the amount returned in relation to each Share;
- (d) in a reduction of capital by cancellation of capital paid up on Shares that is lost or not represented by available assets where no Shares are cancelled, the number of options and the Exercise Price of each option must remain unaltered;
- (e) in a pro rata cancellation of Shares, the number of options must be reduced in the same ratio as the Shares and Exercise Price of each option must be amended in inverse proportion to that ratio; and
- (f) in any other case where the Shares are reorganised, the number of options or the Exercise Price, or both, must be reorganised so that the optionholder will not receive a benefit that holders of Shares do not receive.
16 Register of Options
- (a) The Company will maintain a principle register of optionholders which complies, so far as practicable, with the requirements of section 170 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (as amended) (Option Register).
- (b) The Option Register will be kept by or on behalf of the Company in Perth, Western Australia.
- (c) The holder of an option registered in the Option Register will be the absolute owner of the option represented by that registration.
