6.2 Rights attaching to Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares being the underlying securities of the Bonus Options to be issued 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.

10

(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 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 are referred to in the resolution and which plan provides for any dividend which the Directors may declare from time to time and 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, to 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.

11

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 upon the exercise of the Bonus Options 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 allotment and issue of any new Shares are 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.

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.

7. RISK FACTORS

7.1 Introduction

The Bonus Options offered under this Prospectus are considered highly speculative. An investment in the Company is not risk-free and the Directors strongly recommend potential investors to consider the risk factors described below, together with information contained elsewhere in this Prospectus and to consult their professional advisers.

There are specific risks which relate directly to the Company’s business. In addition, there are other general risks, many of which are largely beyond the control of the Company and the Directors. The risks identified in this section and in the Investment Overview, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the Shares.

The following is not intended to be an exhaustive list of the risk factors to which the Company is exposed.

7.2 Company specific

(a) Potential for dilution

Upon implementation of the Offer, the number of Options in the Company will increase by 24,205,105. If each Bonus Option is subsequently exercised, 24,205,250 more Shares will be issued and each existing Share will represent a lower proportion of the ownership of the Company.

(b) Going Concern

In respect of the financial condition of the Company and the Company Group, the Company’s Annual Financial report for the financial year ended 31 December 2020 (FY20) (Annual Report) includes 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. The Annual Report explains that:

The consolidated statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income reflects a consolidated net loss of $1,256,462 and the consolidated statement of cash flows shows net operating cash outflows of $1,531,365 for the year ended 31 December 2020. The consolidated statement of financial position shows net liabilities of $1,339,310 as well as an excess of current liabilities over current assets of $1,441,036.

The Company Group has been through a process of significant restructure in 2019 in response to a number of external and factors, and whilst this activity was aimed at narrowing the focus to generating higher margin software revenues along with substantially reducing fixed costs to vastly improve the cash flow profile for the group, it has resulted in poor financial results for the period. These conditions give rise to material uncertainty which may cast doubt over the Company Group’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Notwithstanding the ‘going concern’ paragraph included in the financial report, the Directors are confident that upon the successful completion of the Offer and the Placement, the Company will have sufficient funds

13

to adequately meet the Company’s short term working capital requirements.

(c)

Competition

The software industry is highly competitive and witnessing constant innovation. Failure to constantly invest in research and development could see the competitive positioning of the Company’s products deteriorate, impacting the Company’s ability to retain existing and secure new customers.

(d) Supply chain risk

The Company’s growth strategy is reliant to a significant degree on third party service suppliers, including distribution partners and other technology vendors. With continuity and reliability of these services largely outside of the Company’s control, underperformance by one supplier could have a material impact on the Company’s operational and financial performance.

(e)

Technology

Reliability of its products are critical to the Company’s ability to retain and increase its customer base. Any breaches to their security and integrity could have a detrimental impact on the Company’s reputation and subsequent financial performance. Efficiency, accuracy and accountability of the Company’s research and development initiatives are also a major driver of its financial performance. Failure to meet development schedules and budgets can have a detrimental impact on the Company’s funding and competitive position.

(f)

Foreign exchange risk

The Company is targeting markets outside of Australia, including the UK, Europe and New Zealand. While these markets do not currently represent a substantial portion of the Company’s revenue, the Company is targeting growth in these markets, particularly the UK. Revenues generated outside of Australia are received in the local currency of the relevant jurisdiction. Fluctuations in the foreign exchange rates of the relevant currencies against the Australian dollar may adversely affect the Australian dollar revenue received by the Company. Given that R&D is undertaken in jurisdictions with different currencies to the Company’s target offshore markets; it is unlikely that the negative effect on Australian dollar revenue caused by such a fluctuation will be materially offset by a reduction in the Australian dollar cost of expenses in the relevant jurisdiction. The Company does not currently, nor does it intend to, undertake any hedging activities at this time.

(g) Product errors

Despite extensive testing the Company’s software may contain errors. The Company’s software applications are complex and there is a risk that defects may arise, particularly when integrating new products or new versions. Rectification of errors may be costly both financially and in reputation. Product errors could expose the Company to various liabilities including product liability, performance and warranty claims.

14

In addition, there is the risk that the software may not function as intended, with respect to its ability to cope with increasing numbers of users or client numbers. This may lead to the Company’s reputation suffering amongst customers as well as potential claims for redress.

(h) Research and development

The Company’s future success depends on its ability to enhance existing products and features as well as develop new products. Failure to innovate or anticipate market demands may result in the Company ceasing to maintain a competitive and relevant position in a rapidly changing environment. Further, software development is expensive and the investment in product development often involves long return on investment cycles. Research that is not offset by revenue increases could adversely affect the Company’s financial position.

When the Company introduces new products, enhancements, and features there is a risk that there will be unforeseen costs attached to these initiatives or they will not perform as expected or not be received favourably by clientele. A failure to develop successful new products may adversely affect the Company’s financial position and prospects.

(i) Availability of IT staff in the market

The Company relies on employees with specialist IT skills in order to develop and maintain its products and services. Any shortage of availability of these skills in the IT employment market could impair the development of the Company’s products and business and the rate of such development. Such shortage could also cause wage inflation, which may impact on the Company’s profitability.

(j) Reliance on third party IT service provision

The Company uses equipment, software and services provided by third parties to deliver its products and services. Significant or extended disruption of the Company’s software caused by supplied equipment, software or service failure may reduce the Company’s ability to generate revenue, impact customer service levels and damage the Company’s brand. This could adversely affect the Company’s ability to generate new business and cause it to suffer financial loss. Any mitigation of this loss via redress from third parties may not be immediately available, if at all.

(k) Reliance on core information technology and other systems

The availability of the Company’s website development cloud platform is dependent upon the performance, reliability and availability of its IT and communication systems. This includes its core technologies such as computer servers and back-end processing systems. These systems may be adversely affected by a number of factors including major events such as acts of terrorism or war, a breakdown in utilities such as electricity and fibre optic cabling and even pandemics. Events of that nature may cause one or more of those core technologies to become unavailable. There are also internal and external factors that may adversely affect those systems and technologies such as natural disasters, misuse by employees or contractors or other technical issues. The Company’s disaster recovery plans may not adequately address every potential

15

event and its insurance policies may not cover loss or damage suffered as a result of a system failure.

Any damage to, or failure of, the Company’s key systems can result in disruptions in the Company’s ability to operate its website development platform. Such disruptions have the potential to reduce the Company’s ability to generate revenue, attract and/or retain users, impact user service levels and damage the Company’s brand. This could adversely affect the Company’s ability to generate new business and cause it to suffer financial loss.

7.3 Industry specific

(a) Market risk

Economic and regulatory conditions can impact demand for the Company’s products and services. Periods of subdued economic growth and Government investment may constrain the Company’s ability to grow its customer base.

(b) Funding

The Company is still in a growth phase and has yet to establish a record of profitability and consistent dividends. There is a risk that the Company has not eliminated its reliance on external capital, and there is no guarantee further funding will be available to sustain operations.

(c)

Regulatory environment

The Company’s business and performance are affected generally by the fiscal or other policies (including taxation) that are adopted by governments both in Australia and in other jurisdictions in which the Company operates. Any change in regulation or policy may adversely affect the performance or financial position of the Company, either on a short-term or long-term basis. The Company may also be adversely affected by the pace or extent of such change.

(d)

Failure to deal with growth

The Company’s business has the potential to grow rapidly. If that occurs and the Company fails to properly manage that growth, then that failure could harm its business. Any failure to meet customer demand properly could adversely affect the Company’s business, including demand for the Company’s products/services, revenue collection, customer satisfaction and public perception.

(e)

Customer concentration risk

Over-reliance upon key customers and channel partners may, in the event of termination or non-renewal of such arrangements, create revenue volatility. The Company is conscious of customer concentration risk and the need to diversify its customer base. However, large contract wins could skew the concentration of revenues, increasing the risk that non-renewal will have a larger impact on future earnings.

16

(f) Attraction and retention of key employees

The Company’s ability to effectively execute its growth strategy depends upon the performance and expertise of key employees, including those with valuable technological skills and specialist knowledge of the Company’s underlying products, services and markets. The departure of certain key employees and any delay to their replacement could hamper the Company’s ability to achieve its strategic growth objectives and financial performance goals. As the Company grows it will need to make additional key appointments to finalise its executive team and will also need to expand its technical sales support team. There is no guarantee that the Company will be able to attract and retain appropriately qualified personnel.

(g)

Internet hosting

The Company is reliant on continued access to the internet and on parties that provide a hosting platform for websites created on the Company’s platform. Should the internet or hosting service be disrupted for prolonged periods, the service that the Company provides will be compromised which may impact significantly on the Company’s reputation and business prospects.

(h) Security breach and data privacy

Security risks are a factor in all internet-based systems. A malicious attack on the Company’s systems, processes or people from external or internal sources could put the integrity and privacy of customers’ data and the business systems used to run the Company at risk. The Company may be unable to anticipate theft or corruption or implement adequate protective measures to deal with these circumstances. Any accidental or wilful security breaches or unauthorised access may have significant impacts on the Company. The impact of loss or leakage of customer or business data could include costs for rebates, potential service disruption, litigation and brand damage resulting in reduced or falling revenues. The Company follows best practice in relation to security policies, procedures, automated and manual protections, encryption systems and staff screening to minimise this risk.

(i) Protection of Intellectual Property

The value of the Company’s products is dependent on its ability to protect its intellectual property, including business processes and knowhow, copyrights and trademarks. There is a risk that the Company may be unable to detect the unauthorised use of its intellectual property rights in all instances. Further, actions it takes to protect its intellectual property may not be adequate or enforceable and thus may not prevent the misappropriation of the Company’s intellectual property and proprietary information. Breach of its intellectual property may result in the need for it to commence legal action, such as infringement or administrative proceedings, which could be costly, time consuming and potentially difficult to enforce in certain jurisdictions and may ultimately prove unfavourable to The Company. The Company’s failure to protect its intellectual property rights could have an adverse impact on its operations and financial performance.

17

(j) Third-party intellectual property infringements

The Company seeks to ensure that it does not infringe upon third-party intellectual property. However, there is a risk that other parties are developing substantially similar products and processes to those used by The Company. Those other parties may allege that The Company’s products use intellectual property derived from those third parties without their permission. Consequently, subjecting The Company to claims of infringement of third party’s intellectual property rights. If these allegations are successful, injunctions may be granted against The Company, which may materially affect the operation of its products.

7.4 General risks

(a) Economic

General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect on the Company’s research, development and production activities, as well as on its ability to fund those activities.

(b) Market conditions

Share market conditions may affect the value of the Company’s quoted securities regardless of the Company’s operating performance. Share market conditions are affected by many factors such as:

  • (i) general economic outlook;

  • (ii) introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;

  • (iii) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iv) changes in investor sentiment toward particular market sectors;

  • (v) the demand for, and supply of, capital; and

  • (vi) 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 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.

In addition, the extent of the effects of COVID-19 is at this stage uncertain and continuing to evolve. The COVID-19 pandemic is having, and is expected to continue to have, a significant influence on the volatility of equity markets generally and may continue to impact and influence the value of the Company’s quoted securities.

(c) 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 in addition to amounts raised under the Offer. Any additional equity financing will dilute shareholdings, and debt financing, if available, may involve

18

restrictions on financing and operating activities. 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.

(d) Insurance

The Company maintains insurance for certain activities within ranges of coverage that it believes to be consistent with industry practice and having regard to the nature of activities being conducted. 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 results of the Company. In addition, there remains the risk that an insurer defaults in the payment of a legitimate claim by the Company.

(e) Force majeure events

Events may occur within or outside Australia that could impact upon the global and Australian economies, the operations of the Company and the price of the Shares. Such events include but are not limited to acts of terrorism, an outbreak of international hostilities, fires, floods, earthquakes, labour strikes, civil wars, natural disasters, outbreaks of disease or other natural or man-made events or occurrences that can have an adverse effect on the demand for the Company’s services and its ability to conduct business. The Company will have only a limited ability to insure against some of these risks.

(f)

Litigation risks

The Company is exposed to possible litigation risks including intellectual property claims, contractual disputes, 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.

(g) Dividends

Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the Company will be at the discretion of the Directors and will depend on the financial condition of the Company, future capital requirements and general business and other factors considered relevant by the Directors. No assurance in relation to the payment of dividends or franking credits attaching to dividends can be given by the Company.

(h) Taxation

The acquisition and disposal of Shares will have tax consequences, which will differ depending on the individual financial affairs of each investor. All prospective investors in the Company are urged to obtain independent financial advice about the consequences of acquiring Shares from a taxation viewpoint and generally.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and each of their respective advisors accept no liability and responsibility with respect to the taxation consequences of subscribing for Securities under this Prospectus.

19

(i) 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.

(j) 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:

  • (i) 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

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

(k)

Coronavirus (COVID – 19)

In December 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus ( COVID-19 ) was first identified in Wuhan, China. Less than four months later, on March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic—the first pandemic caused by a coronavirus. The outbreak of COVID-19 has resulted in the implementation of significant governmental measures, including lockdowns, closures, quarantines, and travel bans, intended to control the spread of the virus.

The COVID-19 pandemic may prevent the Company, its suppliers, customers, and other business partners from conducting business activities for an indefinite period of time, including due to shutdowns that may be requested or mandated by governmental authorities. Such measures taken in response to COVID-19 may adversely impact the Company’s operations and are likely to be beyond the control of the Company.

The effects of COVID-19 on the Company's Share price and global financial markets generally may also affect the Company's ability to raise equity or debt or require the Company to issue capital at a discount, which may in turn cause dilution to Shareholders.

20

The Directors are monitoring the situation closely and have considered the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business and financial performance. However, the situation is continually evolving, and the consequences are therefore inevitably uncertain. In compliance with its continuous disclosure obligations, the Company will continue to update the market in regard to the impact of COVID-19 on its revenue channels and any adverse impact on the Company. If any of these impacts appear material prior to close of the Offer, the Company will notify investors under a supplementary prospectus.

7.4 Speculative Investment

The above list of risk factors ought not to be taken as exhaustive of the risks faced by the Company or by investors in the Company. The above factors, and others not specifically referred to above, may in the future materially affect the financial performance of the Company and the value of the Bonus Options offered under this Prospectus.

Therefore, the Bonus Options to be issued pursuant to this Prospectus carry no guarantee with respect to the payment of dividends, returns of capital or the market value of those Bonus Options.

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers.

8. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

8.1 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.

8.2 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 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.

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;

22

  • (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 during normal office hours.

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 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 $180,000 per annum.

A Director may be paid fees or other amounts (i.e. 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.

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

The Company will not be issuing Bonus Option 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 Bonus Options allotted 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.
