-
(b) specify whether the Shares are to be issued to the holder of the Options or a nominee; and

(i) issue a prospectus on the date that the Shares are issued under paragraph (a) above (in which case the date for issuing those

Shares may be extended to not more than 25 Business Days after the receipt of the Exercise Notice, to allow the Company time to prepare that prospectus); or
- (ii) issue a prospectus before the date that the Shares are issued under paragraph (a) above, provided that offers under that prospectus must still be open for acceptance on the date those Shares are issued,
in accordance with the requirements of section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act.
10. Participation in new issues
There are no participation rights or entitlements inherent in the Options and holders will not be entitled to participate in new issues of capital offered to Shareholders during the currency of the Options.
However, the Company will ensure that, for the purposes of determining entitlements to any such issue, the record date will be at least 4 business days after the issue is announced. This will give the holders of Options the opportunity to exercise their Options prior to the date for determining entitlements to participate in any such issue.

If the Company makes a bonus issue of Shares or other securities to existing Shareholders (other than an issue in lieu of, or in satisfaction of, dividends or by way of dividend reinvestment):
-
(a) the number of Shares which must be issued on the exercise of an Option will be increased by the number of Shares which the Optionholder would have received if the Optionholder had exercised the Option before the record date for the bonus issue; and
-
(b) no change will be made to the Exercise Price.
12. Adjustment for Rights Issue
If the Company makes an issue of Shares pro rata to existing Shareholders (except a bonus issue) the Exercise Price of an Option will be reduced according to the following formula:
