2 RESOLUTION 2 - APPROVAL OF ISSUE OF SECURITIES

Introduction

ASX Listing Rule 7.1 provides that a company must not, subject to specified exceptions, issue or agree to issue more equity securities during any 12 month period than that amount which represents 15% of the number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue at the commencement of that 12 month period. There are a number of exceptions to this Rule, including where the company first obtains Shareholder approval to issue the securities.

The effect of Resolution 2.1 and 2.2 will be to allow the Company to issue the securities referred to in those resolutions during the period of 3 months after this meeting, without using the Company’s 15% annual placement capacity under ASX Listing Rule 7.1.

10

If Resolutions 2.1 and 2.2 are not approved, the Company will not be able to issue the securities referred to as contemplated by those resolutions and the Board may need to further review the Company operations and the Company’s utilisation of working capital.

  • (f) loan amounts advanced are secured against the R&D Tax Refund.

If Resolution 2.1 is not approved, the Company will not be able to issue the securities referred to as contemplated by the resolution and thus will be required to repay any loans advanced under the Converting Loan Facility on valid early repayment request or on the Repayment Date, will be required to pay the higher rate interest and the Board may need to further review the Company operations and the Company’s utilisation of working capital.

  9. (e) if admitted to the official list of ASX at the time, apply for official quotation on ASX of Shares issued pursuant to the exercise of the Options.

  10. If a notice delivered under clause 2(c) for any reason is not effective to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors, the Company must, no later than 20 Business Days after becoming aware of such notice being ineffective, lodge with ASIC a prospectus prepared in accordance with the Corporations Act and do all such things necessary to satisfy section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act to ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors.

  12. An Option does not confer any rights of a shareholder of the Company, including any rights to dividends and the right to vote.

STEP 1 – APPOINT A PROXY
If you wish to appoint someone other than the Chair of the Meeting as your proxy, please write the name of
that Individual or body corporate. A proxy need not be a Shareholder of the Company. Otherwise if you
leave this box blank, the Chair of the Meeting will be appointed as your proxy by default.
DEFAULT TO THE CHAIR OF THE MEETING
Any directed proxies that are not voted on a poll at the Meeting will default to the Chair of the Meeting,
who is required to vote these proxies as directed. Any undirected proxies that default to the Chair of the
Meeting will be voted according to the instructions set out in this Proxy Voting Form, including where the
Resolutions are connected directly or indirectly with the remuneration of Key Management Personnel.
STEP 2 - VOTES ON ITEMS OF BUSINESS
You may direct your proxy how to vote by marking one of the boxes opposite each item of business. All
your shares will be voted in accordance with such a direction unless you indicate only a portion of voting
rights are to be voted on any item by inserting the percentage or number of shares you wish to vote in the
appropriate box or boxes. If you do not mark any of the boxes on the items of business, your proxy may
vote as he or she chooses. If you mark more than one box on an item your vote on that item will be invalid.
APPOINTMENT OF SECOND PROXY
You may appoint up to two proxies. If you appoint two proxies, you should complete two separate Proxy
Voting Forms and specify the percentage or number each proxy may exercise. If you do not specify a
percentage or number, each proxy may exercise half the votes. You must return both Proxy Voting Forms
together. If you require an additional Proxy Voting Form, contact Automic Registry Services.
