SECTION 3 INFORMATION REGARDING MDS FINANCIAL GROUP AND THIS OFFER

3.1 Continuous disclosure and reporting obligations

MDS Financial Group is a "disclosing entity” (as defined in the Corporations Act) and is subject to regular reporting and disclosure obligations under the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules. These obligations require MDS Financial Group to notify the ASX of information about specific events and matters as they arise for the purpose of the ASX making the information available to the securities market conducted by the ASX. In particular, MDS Financial Group has an obligation under the Listing Rules (subject to certain limited exceptions), to notify the ASX once it is, or becomes aware of information concerning MDS Financial Group which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of MDS Financial Group's Shares. The ASX maintains records of company announcements for all companies listed on the ASX. The announcements of MDS Financial Group are available for inspection at the ASX and may be viewed on the ASX website at www.asx.com.au.

MDS Financial Group is also required to prepare and lodge with ASIC yearly and half-yearly financial statements accompanied by a Directors' statement and report, and an audit review or report. Copies of documents lodged with ASIC in relation to MDS Financial Group may be obtained from, or inspected at, an office of ASIC.

3.2 Cleansing Notice

This Offer Document is issued pursuant to section 708AA of the Corporations Act as an offer document for the offer of securities for issue, under a rights issue, without disclosure to investors under Part 6D.2 of the Corporations Act. Pursuant to the conditions imposed on MDS Financial Group by section 708AA of the Corporations Act for the making of a rights issue without disclosure to investors, MDS Financial Group provided the ASX with a cleansing notice that complied with the requirements of section 708AA(7) on 12 June 2014, prior to despatch of this Offer Document.

  • (1) the assets and liabilities, financial position and performance, profits and losses and prospects of MDS Financial Group; or

3.3

Taxation

You and your Nominee should be aware that there may be taxation implications associated with participating in the Offer and receiving New Shares.

MDS Financial Group, its advisers and officers do not accept any responsibility or liability for any taxation consequences to potential Applicants. The Directors recommend that all Eligible Shareholders and their Nominees consult their own professional tax advisers in connection with this Offer.

8

MDS Rights Issue June 2014

SECTION 4 ASX QUOTATION AND ALLOTMENT OF NEW SHARES

4.1 ASX quotation

MDS Financial Group has made an application to the ASX for the New Shares to be granted quotation on the ASX. If permission is not granted for quotation of the New Shares on the ASX, then no allotment and issue of any New Shares will take place and any application monies (without interest) will be returned in full to Applicants.

Trading of New Shares will, subject to the ASX approval, occur on or about the date specified in the Timetable.

4.2 Allotment and despatch of Holding Statements

Subject to the New Shares being granted quotation on the ASX, the New Shares will be allotted and issued and holding statements despatched in accordance with the Timetable. It is expected that despatch of holding statements and allotment and issue of New Shares will take place on or about Friday 4 July 2014.

Application monies received from Applicants will be held in trust by MDS Financial Group until allotment and issue of the New Shares. MDS Financial Group will be entitled to retain any interest paid on the monies so held, even if this Offer does not proceed.

It is the responsibility of Applicants to determine the number of New Shares allotted and issued to them prior to trading in the New Shares. The sale by an Applicant of New Shares prior to receiving their holding statement is at the Applicant's own risk.

4.3 CHESS

MDS Financial Group participates in CHESS. Under CHESS, MDS Financial Group does not issue certificates to Shareholders but will instead provide Shareholders with a statement of their holdings in MDS Financial Group. If you are broker sponsored, ASTC will send you a CHESS statement. The CHESS statement will set out the number of New Shares issued to you under the Offer Document and give details of your holder identification number, in the case of a holding on the CHESS subregister and the terms and conditions applicable to the New Shares.

If you are registered in the issuer sponsored sub register your statement will be despatched by the Share Registry and will contain the number of New Shares issued under the Offer Document and your security holder reference number.

A CHESS statement or issuer sponsored statement is routinely sent to Shareholders by MDS Financial Group' Share Registry at the end of any calendar month during which the balance of their holding changes. Shareholders may request a statement at any other time; however, a charge may be incurred for additional statements.

4.4 Rights attaching to New Shares

From allotment and issue, the New Shares allotted and issued pursuant to the Offer Document will rank equally in all respects with existing Shares. The rights and liabilities attaching to Shares are set out in the constitution of the Company and in the Corporations Act.

SECTION 5 RISKS

The business activities of MDS Financial Group are subject to risks and there are many risks, which may impact on MDS Financial Group' future performance. Some of these risks can be mitigated by the use of safeguards and appropriate systems and controls, but many are outside of the control of MDS Financial Group and cannot be mitigated. There are also general risks associated with any investment. Investors should consider all of these risks before they make a decision whether or not to apply for New Shares. In

9

MDS Rights Issue June 2014

addition, investors should speak to their financial, legal or other adviser about these risks before making a decision to invest in New Shares. The principal risk factors include, but are not limited to, the following:

5.1 Competition

The corporate advisory and financial services marketplace is subject to competition. MDS Financial Group faces competition from other organisations, many of which may have significantly greater financial, technical and marketing resources than MDS Financial Group. MDS Financial Group has faced and is expected to continue to face, additional competition from new entrants into its markets.

Increased competition could result in margin reductions, lower customer numbers, under-utilisation of employees, reduced operating margins and loss of market share. Any of these occurrences could adversely affect MDS Financial Group’ business, operating results and financial condition. There can be no assurance that MDS Financial Group will be able to compete successfully against current or future competitors globally.

As a strategic response to changes in the competitive environment, the Company may from time to time make research and development, manufacturing, pricing, service or marketing decisions that could have a material effect on the Company's business, results of operations and financial conditions. There can be no certainty that these strategic responses are the correct responses.

5.2 Dependence on General Economic Conditions and Uncertainty Surrounding Financial Markets

In common with other companies, MDS Financial Group may be affected by general economic conditions, including the level of interest rates, currency exchange rates, tax regulation and tax rates, global and national economic cycles, global and national political stability, employment rates, inflation, changing consumer demands and spending by customers. Any changes in government fiscal, monetary and regulatory policies of a government may also adversely affect MDS Financial Group’ business. In particular, the performance of the Company is likely to be affected by the adverse changes in economic conditions as a result of the recent global financial crisis.

5.3 Further Capital Requirements

There can be no assurance that MDS Financial Group can meet all of its business objectives without further financing or, if further financing is necessary, that it can be obtained on favourable terms or at all.

5.4 Profitability

No assurance as to future profitability or dividends can be given, as they are dependent on future earnings and the working capital requirements of the Company's business.

There can be no guarantee that the assumptions on which the planning or marketing strategies of the Company, or those upon which the Company has based its decisions to expand, will ultimately prove to be valid or accurate. The Company's strategies depend on various factors many of which are outside the control of the Company.

5.5

Loss of Key Clients / Termination of Material Contracts

There are a number of existing clients and arrangements, which are material to MDS Financial Group’ business. Further clients are likely to be won and contracts will likely be entered into by MDS Financial Group which will also be material to MDS Financial Group’ business.

Loss or termination of those clients or arrangements for any reason may have a significant adverse impact on the business, revenues and profitability of MDS Financial Group.

10

MDS Rights Issue June 2014

5.6 Management of Future Growth

MDS Financial Group is anticipating a period of increasing growth. This growth is resulting in new and increased responsibilities for management and will continue to place a significant strain on MDS Financial Group’ management. MDS Financial Group will be required to continue to implement and improve its systems on a timely basis in order to accommodate the increased number of transactions and customers and the increased size of its operation. There is a risk that management of the Company will not be able to continue to implement the Company’s growth strategy after completion of the Offer.

5.7

Price and Liquidity for Shares

An investment in Shares should be regarded as speculative. The price of Shares can rise or fall. A range of factors affecting stock markets generally, or industries in which MDS Financial Group’ business is operated can affect it. Those matters are often beyond the control of MDS Financial Group. In addition, liquidity in the trading of Shares (whether on the ASX or otherwise) can be affected by a range of matters beyond the control of MDS Financial Group. Further, there is no guarantee of any return in respect of an investment in Shares, whether a return by way of profit or capital.

In particular, the prices of many stocks listed on the ASX have, in recent times, been subject to large fluctuations, which, in some cases, may have been unrelated to the operating performance of the individual companies concerned. Such fluctuations may adversely affect the market price of Shares.

5.8 Recent Growth Record

There is no assurance that the recent revenue growth of MDS Financial Group is sustainable, or is indicative of future revenue growth or profitability, or future dividend payments. Nor is there any assurance that revenue will increase in response to marketing and promotional activities proposed to be undertaken by MDS Financial Group. In the future, there is no assurance that MDS Financial Group’s products will be readily taken up by the market or taken up at all.

5.9 Regulatory Changes

Changes in government policies in any country may affect MDS Financial Group’s revenues and profitability and the value of an investment in MDS Financial Group.

5.10 Reliance on Key Personnel

MDS Financial Group’s success will depend in part on the continued services of its key employees. The loss of services of one or more of MDS Financial Group’s key employees or contractors could have a material adverse effect on MDS Financial Group’s business, operating results and financial condition. This risk is addressed in part by the existence of service contracts with executives and senior management. MDS Financial Group does not have, nor does it intend to take out, key man insurance in respect of any of its key employees and contractors.
