No Securities may be issued on the basis of this Prospectus later than 13 months after the date of this Prospectus.

No person is authorised to give information or to make any representation in connection with this Prospectus, which is not contained in this Prospectus. Any information or representation not so contained may not be relied on as having been authorised by the Company in connection with this Prospectus.

It is important that investors read this Prospectus in its entirety and seek professional advice where necessary. The Securities offered by this Prospectus should be considered as highly speculative.

Applications for Securities offered pursuant to this Prospectus can only be made by an original Entitlement and Acceptance Form or Shortfall Application Form.

This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of continuously quoted securities (as defined in the Corporations Act) and has been prepared in accordance with section 713 of the Corporations Act. It does not contain the same level of disclosure as an initial public offering prospectus and 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.

Representations contained in this Prospectus are made taking into account that the Company is a disclosing entity for the purposes of the Corporations Act and certain matters are publicly available information or may reasonably be expected to be known to investors and professional advisers whom prospective investors may consult.

No Investment Advice

The information contained in this Prospectus is not financial product advice or investment advice and does not take into account your financial or investment objectives, financial situation or particular needs (including financial or taxation issues). You should seek professional advice from your accountant, financial adviser, stockbroker, lawyer or other professional adviser before deciding to subscribe for Securities under this Prospectus to determine whether it meets your objectives, financial situation and needs.

Forward - looking statements

This Prospectus contains forward-looking statements which are identified by words such as ‘may’, ‘could’, ‘believes’, ‘estimates’, ‘targets’, ‘expects’, or ‘intends’ and other similar words that involve risks and uncertainties.

These statements are based on an assessment of present economic and operating conditions, and on a number of assumptions regarding future events and actions that, as at the date of this Prospectus, are expected to take place.

Such forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important

factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, the Directors and the Company’s management.

The Company cannot and does not give any assurance that the results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in this Prospectus will actually occur and investors are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements.

The Company has no intention to update or revise forward-looking statements, or to publish prospective financial information in the future, regardless of whether new information, future events or any other factors affect the information contained in this Prospectus, except where required by law.

These forward-looking statements are subject to various risk factors that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from the results expressed or anticipated in these statements. These risk factors are set out in Section 5.

Overseas shareholders

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.

It is not practicable for the Company to comply with the securities laws of overseas jurisdictions having regard to the number of overseas Shareholders, the number and value of Shares these Shareholders would be offered and the cost of complying with regulatory requirements in each relevant jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended and Securities will not be issued to Shareholders with a registered address which is outside Australia or New Zealand.

For further information on overseas Shareholders please refer to Section 2.9.

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 Securities.

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 three 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.

Please refer to Section 6.2 for further details.

Financial forecasts

The Directors have considered the matters set out in ASIC Regulatory Guide 170 and believe that they do not have a reasonable basis to forecast future earnings on the basis that the operations of the Company are inherently uncertain.

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

The Company will apply to participate 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.

Electronic sub-registers mean that the Company will not be issuing certificates to investors. Instead, investors will be provided with statements (similar to a bank account statement) that set out the number of Securities 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.

their security holding in the Company during the preceding month.

Collection, maintenance and disclosure of certain personal information is governed by legislation including the Privacy Act 1988 (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 Securities, the Company may not be able to accept or process your application.

1.3 Key Risk Factors

Prospective investors should be aware that subscribing for Securities involves a number of risks and an investment in the Company should be considered as highly speculative. 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 set out in Section 5.

The predominant risks relating to the Company and the Offer are summarised below:

RISK DESCRIPTION
Potential for dilution Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the
Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately
16.67% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on
issue as at the date of this Prospectus).
No immediate dilution will occur as a result of the issue of New
Options under this Prospectus, however subsequent exercise of
any or all of the New Options will result in dilution. Assuming all
New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus are issued and
exercised into Shares, Shareholders who do not participate in
the Offer, are likely to be diluted by an aggregate of
approximately 28.57% (as compared to their holdings and
number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus).
It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company, a
Share or an Option will be following the completion of the Offer
being implemented and the Directors do not make any
representation as to such matters.

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 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 operations 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.

The Malone Entities’ potential relevant interest and maximum voting power in the Company under several scenarios are set out in the table below.

As set out in the table above, even if only the Malone Entities took up their full Entitlements in the Offer, the Malone Entities’ interest would not increase above 20%.

1.7 Potential dilution on non-participating Shareholders

In addition to potential control impacts set out in Section 1.6, Shareholders should note that, assuming Full Subscription, if they do not participate in the Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately 16.67% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of this Prospectus).

No immediate dilution will occur as a result of the issue of New Options under this Prospectus. However subsequent exercise of any or all of the New Options will result in dilution. Assuming all New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus are issued and exercised into Shares, Shareholders who do not participate in the Offer, are likely to be diluted by an aggregate of approximately 28.57% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on issue as at the date of the Prospectus).

  • (i) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form;

  • (ii) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Shares which is covered in full by your Application monies; and

  • (iii) if you pay more than is required to subscribe for your Entitlement, you will be taken to have applied for Shortfall Securities (if any) under the Shortfall Offer, to the extent of the excess.

You should be aware that your own financial institution may implement earlier cut-off times with regard to electronic payment, and you should therefore take this into consideration when making payment. It is your responsibility to ensure that funds submitted through BPAY® are received by 5:00PM (WST) on the Closing Date. The Company shall not be responsible for any delay in the receipt of the BPAY® payment.

Guidance where you have more than one CRN (Shareholding of Shares)

If you have more than one shareholding of Shares and consequently receive more than one Entitlement and Acceptance Form, when taking up your

7

Entitlement in respect of one of those Shareholdings only use the CRN specific to that Shareholding as set out in the applicable Entitlement and Acceptance Form. Do not use the same CRN for more than one of your Shareholdings . This can result in your Application monies being applied to your Entitlement in respect of only one of your Shareholdings (with the result that any Application in respect of your remaining Shareholdings will not be valid).

  • (b) By Electronic Funds Transfer (overseas applicants)

For payment by Electronic Funds Transfer ( EFT ) for overseas Eligible Shareholders, please follow the instructions on the Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You can only make a payment via EFT if you are the holder of an account that supports EFT transactions to an Australian bank account. Please note that should you choose to pay by EFT:

  • (i) you do not need to submit the Entitlement and Acceptance Form but are taken to have made the declarations on that Entitlement and Acceptance Form. You MUST use your HIN or SRN, or your application may not be able to be reconciled and your funds may be returned to you. If you make your payment with EFT, you must return your completed personalised Application Form to the Share Registry by contacting the Share Registry at [email protected] ;

  • (ii) if you do not pay for your Entitlement in full, you are deemed to have taken up your Entitlement in respect of such whole number of Shares which is covered in full by your Application monies; and

  • (iii) if you pay more than is required to subscribe for your Entitlement, you will be taken to have applied for Shortfall Securities (if any) under the Shortfall Offer, to the extent of the excess.

(c) By Cheque

Payment by cheque or case will not be accepted.

2.4 Implications of an acceptance

Returning a completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form or paying any Application monies by BPAY® or EFT will be taken to constitute a representation by you that:

  • (a) you have received a copy of this Prospectus and the accompanying Entitlement and Acceptance Form, and read them both in their entirety;

  • (b) you acknowledge that once the Entitlement and Acceptance Form is returned, or a BPAY® or EFT payment instruction is given in relation to any Application monies, the application may not be varied or withdrawn except as required by law.

2.5

Minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription in respect of the Offer.

2.6

Shortfall Offer

Any Entitlement not taken up pursuant to the Offer will form the Shortfall Offer ( Shortfall Securities ). The Shortfall Offer is a separate offer made pursuant to this Prospectus and will remain open for up to three months following the Closing Date. The issue price for each Share to be issued under the Shortfall Offer shall be $0.003 being the price at which Shares have been offered under the Offer, together with 1 New Option for every 1 Share subscribed for and issued.

If you do not wish to take up any part of your Entitlement you are not required to take any action. That part of your Entitlement not taken up will form part of the Shortfall Offer and potentially be allocated to other Eligible Shareholders or other third parties as part of the Shortfall Offer. The Shortfall Offer will only be available where there is a Shortfall between applications received from Eligible Shareholders and the number of Securities proposed to be issued under the Offer.

8

Eligible Shareholders who wish to subscribe for Securities above their Entitlement are invited to apply for Shortfall Securities under the Shortfall Offer by completing the appropriate section on their Entitlement and Acceptance Form or by making payment for such Shortfall Securities in accordance with Section 2.3.

The Board presently intends to allocate Shortfall Securities as follows:

  • (a) to Eligible Shareholders who apply for an excess of their full Entitlement, so long as the issue of Shortfall Securities to that Eligible Shareholder would not take their voting power to in excess of 19.99%; and then

  • (b) to other parties identified by the Directors, which may include parties who are not currently Shareholders.

No Securities will be issued to a party under the Shortfall Offer if the effect would be to increase that party’s voting power in the Company to an amount greater than 19.99%.

The Company reserves the right to issue an Eligible Shareholder a lesser number of Shortfall Securities than applied for or no Shortfall Securities at all. However, the Directors do not intend to refuse an application for Shortfall Securities from Eligible Shareholders other than in circumstances of oversubscription or where acceptance may result in a breach of the Corporations Act. If the number of Shortfall Securities applied for by Eligible Shareholders exceeds the total Shortfall, the Shortfall Securities will be allocated among applying Eligible Shareholders proportionate to their existing holdings.

All decisions regarding the allocation of Shortfall Securities will be made by the Directors and will be final and binding on all applicants under the Shortfall Offer; as such there is no guarantee that any Shortfall Securities applied for will be issued to Eligible Shareholders.

The Company will have no liability to any Applicant who receives less than the number of Shortfall Securities they applied for under the Shortfall Offer. If the Company scales back any applications for Shortfall Securities under the Shortfall Offer any Application monies will be returned (without interest) as soon as practicable.

2.7 ASX listing

Application for Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus will be made within 7 days after the date of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the Shares offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of three 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.

2.8 Issue of Securities

Securities issued pursuant to the Offer will be issued in accordance with the ASX Listing Rules and timetable set out at Section 1.

Securities issued pursuant to the Shortfall Offer will be issued on a progressive basis. Where the number of Securities issued is less than the number applied for, or where no issue is made, surplus Application monies will be refunded without any interest to the Applicant as soon as practicable after the closing date of the Shortfall Offer.

Pending the issue of the Securities or payment of refunds pursuant to this Prospectus, all Application monies will be held by the Company in trust for the Applicants in a separate bank account as required by the Corporations Act. The Company, however, will be entitled to retain all interest that accrues on the bank account and each Applicant waives the right to claim interest.

Holding statements for Securities issued under the Offer will be mailed as soon as practicable after the issue of Securities and for Shortfall Securities issued under the Shortfall Offer as soon as practicable after their issue.

2.9 Overseas shareholders

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.

It is not practicable for the Company to comply with the securities laws of overseas jurisdictions having regard to the number of overseas Shareholders, the number and value of Securities these Shareholders would be offered and the cost of complying with regulatory requirements in each relevant jurisdiction. Accordingly, the Offer is not being extended and Shares will not be issued to Shareholders with a registered address which is outside Australia or New Zealand.

New Zealand

This Offer to New Zealand investors is a regulated offer made under Australian and New Zealand law. In Australia, this is Chapter 8 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and regulations made under that Act. In New Zealand, this is subpart 6 of Part 9 of the Financial Markets Conduct Act 2013 and Part 9 of the Financial Markets Conduct Regulations 2014.

This Offer and the content of the offer document are principally governed by Australian rather than New Zealand law. In the main, the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and the regulations made under that Act set out how the offer must be made.

There are differences in how financial products are regulated under Australian law. For example, the disclosure of fees for managed investment schemes is different under the Australian regime.

The rights, remedies, and compensation arrangements available to New Zealand investors in Australian financial products may differ from the rights, remedies, and compensation arrangements for New Zealand financial products.

Both the Australian and New Zealand financial markets regulators have enforcement responsibilities in relation to this offer. If you need to make a complaint about this offer, please contact the Financial Markets Authority, New Zealand (http://www.fma.govt.nz). The Australian and New Zealand regulators will work together to settle your complaint.

The taxation treatment of Australian financial products is not the same as for New Zealand financial products. If you are uncertain about whether this investment is appropriate for you, you should seek the advice of an appropriately qualified financial adviser.

The Offer may involve a currency exchange risk. The currency for the financial products is not New Zealand dollars. The value of the financial products will go up or down according to changes in the exchange rate between that currency and New Zealand dollars. These changes may be significant.

If you expect the financial products to pay any amounts in a currency that is not New Zealand dollars, you may incur significant fees in having the funds credited to a bank account in New Zealand in New Zealand dollars.

If the financial products are able to be traded on a financial product market and you wish to trade the financial products through that market, you will have to make arrangements for a participant in that market to sell the financial products on your behalf. If the financial product market does not operate in New Zealand, the way in which the market operates, the regulation of participants in that market, and the information available to you about the financial products and trading may differ from financial product markets that operate in New Zealand.

Nominees and custodians

Nominees and custodians may not submit an Entitlement and Acceptance Form on behalf of any Shareholder resident outside Australia and New Zealand without the prior consent of the Company, taking into account relevant securities law restrictions. Return of a duly completed Entitlement and Acceptance Form will be taken by the Company to constitute a representation that there has been no breach of those regulations.

4. RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES ATTACHING TO SECURITIES

4.1 Rights and liabilities attaching to Shares

A summary of the rights attaching to Shares is detailed below. This summary is qualified by the full terms of the Constitution (a full copy of the Constitution is available from the Company on request free of charge) and does not purport to be exhaustive or to constitute a definitive statement of the rights and liabilities of Shareholders.

These rights and liabilities can involve complex questions of law arising from an interaction of the Constitution with statutory and common law requirements. For a Shareholder to obtain a definitive assessment of the rights and liabilities which attach to Shares in any specific circumstances, the Shareholder should seek legal advice.

(a) General Meetings

Each Shareholder is entitled to receive notice of and to attend general meetings of the Company and to receive all notices, financial reports and other documents required to be sent to Shareholders under the Constitution, Corporations Act or Listing Rules. The notice must state the general nature of business and any other matters required by the constitution, Corporations Act or Listing Rules.

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 the Share, but in respect of partly paid shares, shall have a fraction of a vote equivalent to the proportion which the amount paid up bears to the total issue price for the share.

(c) Dividend Rights

The Directors may from time to time declare a dividend to be paid to Shareholders entitled to the dividend. The dividend shall (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 dividends) be payable on all Shares in accordance with the Corporations Act.

Dividends are payable out of the Company's profits and are declared by the Directors. The Directors may from time to time pay to the Shareholders such interim dividends as they may determine. The Directors may direct payment of the dividend to be made wholly or in part by the distribution of specific assets. No dividend shall carry interest as against the Company. The Directors may set aside out of the profits of the Company such amounts as 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.

14

(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) 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 or Listing Rules.

The Company may decline to register any transfer where permitted to do so by the Listing Rules and must decline to register a transfer of Shares where required by the Listing Rules.

(f) 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 of the Company is divided into different classes of shares, the rights attached to a class (unless otherwise provided by 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 75% of the issued shares of that class, or if authorised by a special resolution at a separate meeting of the holders of the shares of that class.

(g) 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.

(h) Dividend policy

The Company does not intend to declare or pay any dividends in the immediately foreseeable future.

Any future determination as to the payment of dividends by the Company will be at the sole discretion of the Directors and will depend on the availability of distributable earnings and operating results and 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.

(k) Adjustment for entitlement issue

If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu or in satisfaction of dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment):

  • (ii) no change will be made to the Exercise Price.

(m) Adjustment for reorganisation

If there is any reorganisation of the issued share capital of the Company, the rights of the holder will be varied in accordance with the Listing Rules.

17

5. RISK FACTORS

5.1 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.

5.2 Company specific

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Potential for dilution Shareholders should note that if they do not participate in the
Offer, their holdings are likely to be diluted by approximately
16.67% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on
issue as at the date of this Prospectus).
No immediate dilution will occur as a result of the issue of New
Options under this Prospectus. However subsequent exercise of any
or all of the New Options will result in dilution. Assuming all New
Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus are issued and
exercised into Shares, Shareholders who do not participate in the
Offer, are likely to be diluted by an aggregate of approximately
28.57% (as compared to their holdings and number of Shares on
issue as at the date of the Prospectus).
It is not possible to predict what the value of the Company, a Share
or an Option will be following the completion of the Offer being
implemented and the Directors do not make any representation as
to such matters.
The last trading price of Shares on ASX prior to the Prospectus being
lodged of $0.004 is not a reliable indicator as to the potential
trading price of Shares after implementation of the Offer.
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 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 operations as the case may be. There is however no
guarantee that the Company will be able to secure any additional
fundingor be able to secure fundingon terms favourable to the

Company.
Going Concern The Company’s full year financial report released on 30 June 2024
(Financial 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.
Notwithstanding this, the Directors believe that upon the successful
completion of the Offer, the Company will have sufficient funds to
adequately meet the Company’s current commitments and short-
term working capital requirements. The ability of the Company to
continue as a going concern is dependent on the Company
securing additional debt and/or equity funding and/or generating
profits from its normal course of business.
In the event that the Offer is not completed successfully there is
significant uncertainty as to whether the Company can continue
as a going concern which is likely to have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s activities.

Federal Drug Administration (USA FDA), European Union, and
Ministry of Health Japan and Canada.
Changes in relevant laws, regulations and government policies
regarding the regulation of sunscreens or skincare products could
adversely affect the Company’s proposed operations, increase
costs, or affect the financial performance or any future revenue of
the Company.
Competition Risks While the research and development of all organic and natural
skin care products requires considerable time, expertise, skill and
process, competition for the Company’s products may come from
global and local skin care companies entering both the Australian
market and international markets identified bythe Companythat

19

RISK CATEGORY RISK
currently do not provide all natural and organic skin care products
to their customers. This could reduce the addressable market
available to the Company, or increase competition or cause
margin reductions available to the Company.
Change in
Regulations
There is a risk that laws or regulations may be introduced or
amended in Australia, or in foreign jurisdictions in which the
Company’s sells, or sources its ingredients or products.
Changes to the regulatory environment could have a material
effect in a number of ways. For example, the financial and
production effects resulting from changing requirements to:
(a)
product packaging or labelling requirements as a
requirement of regulatory medicine content disclosures;
or
(b)
restrictions that prevent or restrict access to markets by
amendments to regulations governing the export or
importation of products.
While the Directors are not aware of any current issues, or any
impending regulatory change in relevant markets, there is the
potential for any such measures to materially reduce the
Company’s revenues or increase its costs.
Manufacturing Risks
and Regulations
The process of manufacturing the Company's products is complex,
highly regulated and subject to numerous quality assessments
controls and procedures. This process may be subject to several
manufacturing risks, including the following:
(a)
deviations from normal manufacturing processes and
controls could result in delays in production, reduced
production yields, product defects and other supply
disruptions;
(b)
the manufacturing facilities in which the Company's
products are made could be adversely affected by
equipment failures, labour shortages, natural disasters,
power failures and numerous other factors;
(c)
the Company and its contract manufacturers must
comply with the TGA regulations and guidelines. The
Company
and
its
contract
manufacturers
may
encounter difficulties in achieving quality control and
quality assurances to the standard required or, changes
to the regulations and guidelines may require the
Company to seek an alternative manufacturer, increase
in costs or reduce volumes. There may be a shortage of
persons qualified to administer the regulations and
guidelines
or
may
require
additional
training
or
qualifications.
The
Company
and
its
contract
manufacturers are subject to inspections by the TGA and
comparable agencies in other jurisdictions to confirm
compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
Any failure to follow TGA or other regulatory requirements
or any delay, interruption or other issues that arise in the
manufacture, packaging, or storage of the Company's
products as a result of a failure of the Company's facilities
or the facilities or operations of third parties to comply
with regulatory requirements or pass any regulatory
authority
inspection
could
significantly
impair
the
Company's ability to develop and commercialise the
Company's products. Significant non-compliance could
also result in the imposition of sanctions, including fines,
injunctions, civil penalties, failure of regulatory authorities
to grant marketing approvals for the Company's
products, delays, suspension or withdrawal of approvals,
license revocation,seizures or recalls ofproducts,

20

RISK CATEGORY RISK
operating restrictions and criminal prosecutions, any of
which could damage the Company's reputation. If the
Company is not able to maintain regulatory compliance,
the Company may not be permitted to market its
products or may be subject to product recalls, seizures,
injunctions, or criminal prosecution; and
(d)
any adverse developments affecting manufacturing
operations for the Company's products may result in
shipment
delays,
inventory
shortages,
product
withdrawals or recalls, or other interruptions in the supply
of the Company's products. The Company may also
have to take inventory write-offs and incur other charges
and
expenses
for
products
that
fail
to
meet
specifications, undertake costly remediation efforts or
seek more costly manufacturing alternatives.
The Company currently only utilises three TGA approved
manufacturers across the product range. Accordingly, there is a
concentration of manufacturing with each provider, in relation to
each product line. There are no minimum production commitments
in place between the Company and its manufacturers, although
the
parties
have
worked
together
for
many
years.
The
manufacturers have advised that they currently have sufficient
capacity to manufacture the Company’s products in the near
future.
There is also a requirement that manufacturers producing the
Company’s products must comply with TGA regulations. There is a
risk that for some reason outside the Company’s control that its
manufacturer(s) could lose their regulatory approvals.
Should there be a disruption with this particular manufacturer or
others, or the manufacturer elects not to continue manufacturing
the Company’s products, then this could have a material adverse
impact on the Company’s ability to meet consumer demand and
may impact the financial performance and future prospects of the
business. However, this risk can be mitigated as there are also
numerous other TGA approved manufacturing facilities in Australia
and overseas.
Raw Ingredients
Supply
The availability of organic and natural materials to meet the
growing production plans of the Company’s products is a critical
part of supply chain management. Should there be interruptions in
the
Company’s
ingredient
supply
chain
or
economic
or
environment events impacting the availability of these raw
materials then this could have a material adverse impact on the
Company’s ability to meet consumer demand and impact the
financial performance and future prospects of the business.
Distribution The Company relies on a network of distributors in Australia and
internationally including New Zealand, Japan and Europe. The
Company distributes its products both locally in Australia and
internationally through distributors in these jurisdictions. Should the
Company fail to secure suitable formal distribution contracts or fail
to engage suitable distributors, or should engaged contracts
default or fail to deliver, the distribution of the Company’s products
could be limited or restricted which could have a material adverse
impact on the Company’s financial performance and future
prospects of the business.
Brand and Reputation The Company's Intellectual Property is a key asset of its business.
The reputation and value associated with the Company's brand
names and related Intellectual Property could be adversely
affected by a number of factors, including failing to provide
customers with the quality of product they expect, contamination
or recall issues, disputes or litigation with third parties, employees,
suppliers or customers,or adverse media coverage(including

21

RISK CATEGORY RISK
social media), or other circumstances including those beyond the
direct control of the Company.
Significant erosion in the reputation of, or value associated with the
Company’s brands, could have an adverse effect on customer
loyalty, relationships with key suppliers, employee retention rates,
and overall demand for the Company’s products.
Unable to adequately
prevent disclosure of
Intellectual Property
The Company relies on trade secrets to protect its Intellectual
Property, especially where the Company does not believe patent
protection is appropriate or obtainable. However, trade secrets are
difficult to protect. The Company relies in part on confidentiality
agreements with its employees, consultants, outside scientific
collaborators, sponsored researchers and other advisors to protect
the Intellectual Property. These agreements may not effectively
prevent disclosure of confidential information and the Intellectual
Property and may not provide an adequate remedy in the event
of unauthorized disclosure of confidential information or the
Intellectual Property. In addition, others may independently
discover Intellectual Property.
Costly and time-consuming litigation could be necessary to
enforce and determine the scope of the Intellectual Property.
Failure to obtain or maintain trade secret protection, or failure to
adequately protect the Intellectual Property could enable
competitors to develop generic products or use the Intellectual
Property to develop other products that compete with the
Company's products or cause additional, material adverse effects
upon the Company’s business, results of operations and financial
condition.
Claims by third parties
that the Company
has infringed their
proprietary rights
Because patent applications are maintained in secrecy until the
application is published, the Company may be unaware of third
party patents that may be infringed by commercialisation of the
Company's product. In addition, identification of third party patent
rights that may be relevant to the Company's products and
technology is difficult because patent searching is imperfect due
to
differences
in
terminology
among
patents,
incomplete
databases and the difficulty in assessing the meaning of patent
claims. Any claims of patent infringement asserted by third parties
would be time consuming and could likely:
(a)
result in costly litigation;
(b)
divert the time and attention of the Company’s technical
personnel and management;
(c)
cause development delays;
(d)
prevent the Company from commercialising its products
until the asserted patent expires or is held finally invalid or
not infringed in a court of law;
(e)
require the Company to develop non-infringing products;
or
(f)
require the Company to enter into royalty or licensing
agreements.
Although no third party has asserted a claim of patent infringement
against the Company, others may hold proprietary rights that
could prevent the Company's products from being marketed. Any
patent-related legal action against the Company claiming
damages and seeking to enjoin commercial activities relating to
the Company’s products could subject the Company to potential
liability for damages and require the Company to obtain a license
to continue to manufacture or market the Company’s products.
The Company cannot predict whether the Company would prevail
in any such actions or that any license required under any of these
patents would be made available on commerciallyacceptable

22

RISK CATEGORY RISK
terms, if at all. In addition, the Company cannot be sure that the
Company could re-design its products to avoid infringement, if
necessary. Accordingly, an adverse determination in a judicial or
administrative proceeding, or the failure to obtain necessary
licenses, could prevent the Company from developing and
commercialising its products, which could harm its business,
financial condition and operating results.
Loss of key personnel In the short term until a suitable team is put in place, the
Company’s success depends to a significant extent on its key
personnel, in particular Messrs. Peter Malone and Leo Fung. Peter
and Leo have extensive experience in, and knowledge of, the
Company’s products and business. The loss of key management
personnel or any delay in their replacement could have a
significant adverse effect on the management of the Company, its
financial performance and future prospects.

5.3 Industry specific

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Product
Contamination and
Recall
As a producer of natural skin care products, the Company is
subject to a general risk that any product contamination or
product recall issue (however caused) could have a material
adverse effect on the Company’s brand and thus its financial
performance. The Company and its manufacturer employ a
number of measures to minimise the risk in this area (such as
requiring
manufacturers
to
have
current
TGA
and
GMP
accreditation and the Company having appropriate insurance in
place).
Foreign Exchange The Company distributes its products both in Australia and
overseas. As distribution networks grow and further expand into
USA, Canada, Japan and other countries, it is anticipated that
more business will be conducted in foreign currencies. Hence,
foreign currency risk may become more relevant over time.
Insurance The Company insures its operations in accordance with industry
practice. However, in certain circumstances, the Company’s
insurance may not be available or of a nature or level to provide
adequate insurance cover. 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 is a risk that an insurer defaults in
the payment of a legitimate claim by the Company.
Contractual Disputes As with any contract, there is a risk that the business could be
disrupted in situations where there is a disagreement or dispute in
relation to a term of the contract. Should such a disagreement or
dispute occur, this may have an adverse impact on the
Company's operations and performance generally. It is not
possible for the Company to predict or protect itself against all
such risks.
Third Party Risk The operations of the Company require the involvement of a
number of third parties, including suppliers, contractors and clients.
Financial failure, default or contractual non-compliance on the
part of such third parties may have a material impact on the
Company's operations and performance. It is not possible for the
Company to predict or protect the Company against all such risks.

23

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Retail Environment There may be an economic downturn in Australia or the overseas
markets that may cause the retail environment to deteriorate as
consumers reduce their retail spending on discretionary items. This
may result in reduced turnover in the Company’s products in
Australia or overseas markets.

5.4 General risks

RISK CATEGORY RISK
Government
legislation and policy
changes
Changes in relevant laws, regulations and government policies
may
adversely
affect
the
Company’s
product
approvals,
ingredient availability, proposed operations, increase costs, or
affect the financial performance or any future revenue of the
Company. Such changes are beyond the control of the Company.
Economic General economic conditions, movements in interest and inflation
rates and currency exchange rates may have an adverse effect
on the Company’s operations, as well as on its ability to fund those
activities.
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:
(a)
general economic outlook;
(b)
introduction of tax reform or other new legislation;
(c)
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. Neither the Company nor the Directors warrant the future
performance of the Company or any return on an investment in
the Company.
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.
Unforeseen expenses While the Company is not aware of any expenses that may need
to be incurred that have not been taken into account, if such
expenses were subsequently incurred, the expenditure proposals of
the Company may be adversely affected.
Macro-economic
risks
Changes in the general economic outlook in Australia and globally
may impact the performance of the Company. Such changes
may include:
(a)
uncertainty in the Australian economy or increases in the
rate of inflation resulting from domestic or international
conditions (including movements in domestic interest
rates and reduced economic activity);
(b)
increases in expenses (including the cost of goods and
services used by the Company);

24

RISK CATEGORY RISK
(c)
new or increased government taxes, duties or changes in
taxation laws; and
(d)
fluctuations
in
equity
markets

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.
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.
Economic conditions
and other global or
national issues
General economic conditions, laws relating to taxation, new
legislation, trade barriers, movements in interest and inflation rates,
currency exchange controls and rates, national and international
political circumstances (including outbreaks in international
hostilities, wars, terrorist acts, sabotage, subversive activities,
security operations, labour unrest, civil disorder, and states of
emergency), natural disasters (including fires, earthquakes and
floods), and quarantine restrictions, epidemics and pandemics,
may have an adverse effect on the Company’s operations and
financial performance, including the Company’s exploration,
development and production activities, as well as on its ability to
fund those activities.
General economic conditions may also affect the value of the
Company and its market valuation regardless of its actual
performance.
Broader general risks There are also a number of broader general risks which may
impact the Company’s performance. These include:
(a)
abnormal stoppages in normal business operations due
to factors such as war, political or civil unrest,
infrastructure failure or industrial disruption;
(b)
higher than budgeted costs associated with the provision
of service offerings; and
(c)
material litigation – the Company is not currently involved
in any material litigation and is not aware of any facts or
circumstances that may give rise to any material
litigation. However, given the scope of the Company’s
activities and the wide range of parties with which it is
likely to deal, the Company may be exposed to potential
litigation from third parties such as clients, regulators,
employees and business associates.
Acquisitions As part of its business strategy, the Company may make
acquisitions of, or significant investments in, companies, products,
technologies and/or products that are complementary to the
Company’s
business.
Any
such
future
transactions
are
accompanied by the risks commonly encountered in making
acquisitions of companies, products and technologies, such as
