This Prospectus is a transaction specific prospectus for an offer of New Options to acquire 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.

2.4 Risk Factors

The key risk factors of which investors should be aware are set out in Section 6 of this Prospectus. These risks together with other general risks applicable to all investments in listed securities not specifically referred to, may affect the value of the New Options in the future.

2.5

Overseas Investors

3. DETAILS OF THE OFFER

3.1 Offer

Under this Prospectus, the Company invites investors identified by the Directors to apply for up to 100 New Options.

The Offer will only be extended to specific parties on invitation from the Directors. Application Forms will only be provided by the Company to these parties.

The full terms and conditions of the New Options to be offered under this Prospectus are set out in Section 5.1.

3.2 Objective

The Company is not seeking to raise any capital under this Prospectus and, accordingly, the purpose of this Prospectus is not to raise capital.

The purpose of this Prospectus is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Options in the same class as the New Options issued by the Company without disclosure under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act prior to the Closing Date (including prior to lodgement of this Prospectus) so that, following quotation of the Options in the same class as the New Options, any on-sale of Options in that class issued before the Closing Date does not breach section 707(3) of the Corporations Act.

Relevantly, section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act provides that a sale offer does not need disclosure to investors if:

  • (a) the relevant securities are in a class of securities that are quoted securities of the body;

  • (b) either:

  • (i) a prospectus is lodged with the ASIC on or after the day on which the relevant securities were issued but before the day on which the sale offer is made; or

  • (ii) a prospectus is lodged with ASIC before the day on which the relevant securities are issued and offers of securities that have been made under the prospectus are still open for acceptance on the day on which the relevant securities were issued; and

  • (c) the prospectus is for an offer of securities issued by the body that are in the same class of securities as the relevant securities.

On 17 March 2021, the Company completed a two-tranche placement under which it issued Shares, together with free attaching Options, to sophisticated and professional investors ( March Placement ). The free attaching Options issued under the March Placement were in a new class of securities. The Company has placed a trading lock on all Options issued under the March Placement in order to prevent those Options being traded or on-sold to third parties until they are cleansed.

The New Options offered under this Prospectus are in the same class as those issued under the March Placement. Once this Prospectus has been lodged, and subject to ASX granting Official Quotation of the New Options under Chapters 1

4

and 2 of the Listing Rules, the Company will remove the trading lock on all Options in the same class as the New Options.

The Company will apply for quotation of the New Options within 7 days following the date of this Prospectus and the issue of New Options under the Offer is conditional upon ASX granting Official Quotation to the New Options.

3.3 Application for New Options

Applications for New Options must be made by investors at the direction of the Company and must be made using the Application Form accompanying this Prospectus.

The Company reserves the right to close the Offer early.

3.4 Minimum subscription

There is no minimum subscription.

3.5 Oversubscriptions

No oversubscriptions will be accepted by the Company.

3.6 Issue of New Options

As noted in Section 3.2, the primary purpose of the Offer is to remove any trading restrictions that may have attached to Options in the same class as the New Options issued by the Company without disclosure under Chapter 6D of the Corporations Act prior to the Closing Date of the Offer (including prior to the date of this Prospectus).

If the Directors decide to issue New Options under the Offer, the issue of New Options under the Offer will take place as soon as practicable after the Closing Date.

The Directors will determine the recipients of all the New Options. The Directors reserve the right to reject any application or to allocate any Applicant fewer New Options than the number applied for. The Company’s decision on the number of New Options to be allocated to an applicant will be final.

Holding statements for New Options issued under this Prospectus will be mailed to the investors under the Offer.

3.7 ASX listing

Application for Official Quotation of the New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus and Options in the same class as the New Options will be made within 7 days of the date of this Prospectus. If ASX does not grant Official Quotation of the New Options offered pursuant to this Prospectus before the expiration of 3 months after the date of issue of the Prospectus, (or such period as varied by the ASIC), the Company will not issue any New Options and Options of the same class as the New Options will remain unquoted.

The fact that ASX may grant Official Quotation to the New Options is not to be taken in any way as an indication of the merits of the Company or the New Options now offered for subscription.

5

3.8 Restrictions on the distribution of the Prospectus

The distribution of this Prospectus outside the Commonwealth of Australia may be restricted by law.

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.

Residents of countries outside Australia should consult their professional advisers as to whether any government or other consents are required, or whether any formalities need to be observed should they wish to make an application to take up New Options on the basis of this Prospectus. The return of a duly completed Application Form will be taken to constitute a representation and warranty that there has been no breach of such laws and that all approvals and consents have been obtained.

(g) Timing of issue of Shares on exercise

Within five Business Days after the Exercise Date, the Company will:

  • (i) issue the number of Shares required under these terms and conditions in respect of the number of Options specified in the Notice of Exercise and for which cleared funds have been received by the Company;

  • (ii) if required, give ASX a notice that complies with section 708A(5)(e) of the Corporations Act, or, if the Company is unable to issue such a notice, 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

9

ensure that an offer for sale of the Shares does not require disclosure to investors; and

  • (iii) 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.

If a notice delivered under (g)(ii) 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.

Shares issued on exercise

Shares issued on exercise of the Options rank equally with the then issued shares of the Company.

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 without exercising the Options.

Transferability

The Options are transferable subject to any restriction or escrow arrangements imposed by ASX or under applicable Australian securities laws.

5.2 Shares

The following is a summary of the more significant rights and liabilities attaching to Shares that may be issued pursuant to this Prospectus and subject to exercise of the New Options. 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.

10

(a) General meeting and notices

Each member is entitled to receive notice of, and to attend and vote at, general meetings of the Company and to receive all notices, accounts and other documents required to be sent to members under the Constitution, the Corporations Act or the ASX Listing Rules.

(b) Voting rights

Subject to any rights or restrictions for the time being attached to any class or classes of shares, at a general meeting of the Company every holder of fully paid ordinary shares present in person or by an attorney representative or proxy has one vote on a show of hands and one vote per share on a poll.

Where there are 2 or more joint holders of a share and more than one of them is present at a meeting and tenders a vote in respect of the share, the Company will count only the vote cast by the member whose name appears first in the Company's register of members.

(c) Issues of further Shares

The Directors may, on behalf of the Company, issue, grant options over unissued shares to any person on the terms, with the rights, and at the times that the Directors decide. However, the Directors must act in accordance with the restrictions imposed by the Constitution, ASX Listing Rules, the Corporations Act and any rights for the time being attached to the shares in any special class of those shares.

(d) Variation of Rights

Unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of a class of shares and subject to the Corporations Act, the rights attached to the shares in any class may be varied or cancelled only with the written consent of the holders of at least three-quarters of the issued shares of the affected class, or by special resolution passed at a separate meeting of the holders of the issued shares of the affected class.

(e) Transfer of Shares

Subject to the Constitution, the Corporations Act and ASX Listing Rules, Shares are freely transferable.

The Shares may be transferred by a proper transfer effected in accordance with the ASX Settlement Operating Rules, by any other method of transferring or dealing with Shares introduced by ASX and as otherwise permitted by the Corporations Act or by a written instrument of transfer in any usual form or in any other form approved by either the Directors or ASX that is permitted by the Corporations Act.

The Directors may decline to register a transfer of Shares (other than a proper transfer in accordance with the ASX Settlement Operating Rules) where permitted to do so under the ASX Listing Rules. If the Directors decline to register a transfer, the Company must, within 5 Business Days after the transfer is delivered to the Company, give the party lodging the transfer written notice of the refusal and the reason for the refusal. The Directors must decline to register a transfer of Shares when required by law, by the ASX Listing Rules or by the ASX Settlement Operating Rules.

11

(f) Dividends

The Directors may from time to time determine dividends to be distributed to members according to their rights and interests. The Directors may fix the time for distribution and the methods of distribution. Subject to the terms of issue of shares, the Company may pay a dividend on one class of shares to the exclusion of another class.

Each share carries the right to participate in the dividend in the same proportion that the amount for the time being paid on the share (not credited) bears to the total amounts paid and payable (excluding amounts credited) in respect of such shares.

(g) Dividend reinvestment and Share plans

Subject to the requirements in the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules, the Directors may implement and maintain dividend reinvestment plans (under which any member may elect that dividends payable by the Company be reinvested by way of subscription for fully paid shares in the Company).

(h) Capitalisation of profits

Subject to the ASX Listing Rules and any rights or restrictions attaching to any class of shares, the Company may capitalise profits. Members are entitled to participate in a capital distribution in the same proportions in which they are entitled to participate in dividends.

(i) Winding-up

Subject to the rights of holders of shares with special rights in a windingup and the Corporations Act, if the Company is wound up all monies and property that are to be distributed among Shareholders on a winding-up, shall be distributed in proportion to the Shares held by them respectively, irrespective of the amount paid-up or credited as paid-up on the Shares.

(j) Shareholder liability

As the Shares issued 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.

(k) 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.

6. RISK FACTORS

6.1 Introduction

The New 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 before deciding whether to apply for New Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

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, or other risk factors, may have a material impact on the financial performance of the Company and the market price of the New Options.

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

6.2 Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is impacting global economic markets. The nature and extent of the effect of the outbreak on the performance of the Company remains unknown. The Company’s Share price may be adversely affected in the short to medium term by the economic uncertainty caused by COVID-19. Further, any governmental or industry 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 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.

6.3 Company specific

(a) Brand and Reputation

The Company’s key business assets include brand names and related intellectual property of the business. A number of factors may adversely affect these key business assets, including:

  • (i) potential disputes or litigation with suppliers, customers, employees or other third parties;

  • (ii) adverse media coverage (including social media);

  • (iii) failure to deliver products which meet customer expectations; and

  • (iv) other risks to the Company’s brand names and intellectual property which are beyond the Company’s control.

13

These factors can erode the Company’s public reputation and adversely affect the Company’s supply streams by decreasing demand for the Company’s products and causing interference with key supply relationships, distributors and employees. Cumulatively this could detrimentally affect the value associated with the Company’s business.

(b) Change in Regulation

There is a continuing risk for the Company that local laws and/or regulations in Australia and China with respect to the operation of its customers may change. There is a risk that changes to the regulatory environment may materially detrimentally affect the way the Company currently operates (including obligations altering the manufacturing processes, ingredients, shelf life, marketing and export/import processes).

The potential detrimental flow on effects from these regulatory changes could significantly affect the sale or production of the Company’s products as a result of:

  • (i) regulatory changes which restrict or entirely prevent access to particular markets in which the Company may source its products (amendments to importation or exportation regulations);

  • (ii) regulatory changes which change the product packaging requirements and disclosure obligations (including labelling and country of origin requirements containing minimum dietary disclosures); or

  • (iii) the introduction of taxation measures which specifically reference food items.

The Company is not aware of any current issues or any impending regulatory changes in Australia which may affect its supply, manufacture and distribution networks. However, there is a continuing residual risk from potential regulatory changes, particularly in China, which may materially alter the Company’s revenues and/or increase its costs which could diminish the Company’s financial performance.

(c) Supply

The Company relies on a number of suppliers and manufacturers with respect to its product range. Risks in respect of supply and manufacturing hinges upon the Company’s reliance on a concentration and consistency of key suppliers and manufacturers.

A disruption to this supply chain, or if a manufacturer chooses to discontinue production, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to meet consumer needs and ultimately be of detriment to the business's financial performance and future prospects. However, given that there are alternative suppliers and manufacturers within Australia that the Company could seek to partner with, the Company considers it low risk.

(d) Competition

The Company’s future financial performance and overall success in the market will rest upon the successful implementation of strategies to compete with other businesses. Some of these competitors have

14

advantageous access to capital and resources. Those competitors may be given both financial and marketing assistance.

The Company’s strategies may be adversely impacted by the number and size of its competitors who may participate in the market with a more aggressive pricing structure, innovative technologies and/or agile supply and distribution networks more adept than those of the Company.

(e) Failure to grow

The success and potential growth of the Company is dependent on its ability to grow its store footprint and to source/offer a wide range of products to the market. If the Company is unable to do so, the result could be a reduced or negative rate of growth. The Company may also fail to grow as a result of inadequate marketing or insufficient consumer interest.

(f) Reliance on key personnel

The development of the Company has been largely due to the effort, experience and leadership of its management team. The Company is also dependent on the continued service of its existing development personnel because of the complexity of its technologies. Despite the Company’s best efforts to attract and retain key personnel, there is no assurance that the Company will be able to retain the services of such persons. The Company’s ability or inability to attract and retain key personnel could have a material effect upon the Company’s business, results of operations and financial condition.

(g) Dependence on outside parties

The Company may pursue a strategy that forms strategic business relationships with other organisations in relation to current and potential products, distribution channels and points of sale. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to attract and retain such organisations and to negotiate appropriate terms and conditions with these organisations or that any potential agreements with such organisations will be complied with.

Given the highly concentrated nature of Australia’s ‘daigou’ retail market, disruption by any of the major retailers in the Coles-Wesfarmers or Woolworths Group could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s financial performance. The Company is focused on expanding its distribution footprint to mitigate this risk, as well as to benefit from margin accretive opportunities available outside Australia.

(h) Product contamination and recall

Being a distributor of food products, the Company is subject to a risk of product contamination and/or product recall that could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s brand and stock levels and thereby its financial performance and future prospects.

(i) Management of growth

There is a risk that management of the Company will not be able to implement its growth strategy. The capacity of the Company’s

15

management to properly implement the strategic direction of the Company may affect the Company’s financial performance.

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, additional complementary companies or prospects. Any such transactions will be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

6.4 General Risks

(a) Additional requirements for capital

The funds raised under the December Placement are considered sufficient to meet the immediate business objectives of the Company. Additional funding may be required in the event costs exceed the Company’s estimates and to effectively implement its business and operations plans in the future, to take advantage of opportunities for acquisitions, joint ventures or other business opportunities and to meet any unanticipated liabilities or expenses which the Company may incur.

The Company may seek to raise further funds through equity or debt financing joint ventures, licensing arrangements, production sharing arrangements or other means. Failure to obtain sufficient financing for the Company’s activities and future projects may result in delay and indefinite postponement of the activities and potential research and development. There can be no assurance that additional finance will be available when needed or, if available, the terms of the financing might not be favourable to the Company and might involve substantial dilution to Shareholders.

Loan agreements and other financing rearrangements such as debt facilities, convertible note issues and finance leases (and any related guarantee and security) that may be entered into by the Company may contain covenants, undertakings and other provisions which, if breached, may entitle lenders to accelerate repayment of loans and there is no assurance that the Company would be able to repay such loans in the event of an acceleration. Enforcement of any security granted by the Company or default under a finance lease could also result in the loss of assets.

(b) Trading price of Shares

The Company’s operating results, economic and financial prospects and other factors will affect the trading price of the Shares. In addition, the price of Shares is subject to varied and often unpredictable influences on the market for equities, including, but not limited to general economic conditions including, inflation rates and interest rates, variations in the general market for listed stocks, changes to government policy, legislation or regulation, industrial disputes, general operational and business risks and hedging or arbitrage trading activity that may develop involving the Shares.

The share prices for many companies have been and may in the future be highly volatile, which in many cases may reflect a diverse range of non-company specific influences such as global hostilities and tensions relating to certain unstable regions of the world, acts of terrorism and the general state of the global economy. No assurances can be made that

16

the Company’s market performance will not be adversely affected by any such market fluctuations or factors.

(c) Potential acquisitions risk

As part of its business strategy, the Company may make acquisitions of, or significant investments in, complementary companies or prospects although no such acquisitions or investments are currently planned. Any such transactions will be accompanied by risks commonly encountered in making such acquisitions.

(d) Market conditions risk

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) interest rates and inflation rates;

  • (iii) currency fluctuations;

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

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

  • (vi) terrorism or other hostilities.

The market price of Shares 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.

(e) General economic and political risks

Changes in the general economic and political climate in Australia and on a global basis may impact on economic growth, interest rates, the rate of inflation, taxation and tariff laws, domestic security which may affect the value and viability of any activities that may be conducted by the Company.

(f)

Regulatory risk

Changes in relevant taxes, legal and administration regimes, accounting practice and government policies may adversely affect the financial performance of the Company.

6.5 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 New Options offered under this Prospectus

Therefore, the New 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 New Options.

17

Potential investors should consider that the investment in the Company is speculative and should consult their professional advisers before deciding whether to apply for New Options pursuant to this Prospectus.

18

7. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

7.1 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.

7.2

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 the 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;

19

  • (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 or an ASIC office during normal office hours.

Details of documents lodged with ASX since the date of lodgement of the Company’s latest annual financial report and before the lodgement of this Prospectus with the ASIC are set out in the table below :

7.9 Electronic Prospectus

If you have received this Prospectus as an electronic Prospectus, please ensure that you have received the entire Prospectus accompanied by the Application Form. If you have not, please contact the Company and the Company will send you, for free, either a hard copy or a further electronic copy of this Prospectus or both. Alternatively, you may obtain a copy of this Prospectus from the website of the Company at https://aumake.com.au .

The Company reserves the right not to accept an Application Form from a person if it has reason to believe that when that person was given access to the electronic Application Form, it was not provided together with the electronic Prospectus and any relevant supplementary or replacement prospectus or any of those documents were incomplete or altered.

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

The Company will not be issuing Share certificates, New Option certificates or certificates for Options of the same class as New Options. 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 New Options 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.

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.

7.11 Privacy Act

If you complete an application for New Options, you will be providing personal information to the Company. The Company collects, holds and will use that information to assess your application, service your needs as a Shareholder, facilitate distribution payments and corporate communications to you as a Shareholder and carry out administration.

The information may also be used from time to time and disclosed to persons inspecting the register, bidders for your securities in the context of takeovers, regulatory bodies, including the Australian Taxation Office, authorised securities brokers, print service providers, mail houses and the Company’s Share Registry.

You can access, correct and update the personal information that we hold about you. Please contact the Company if you wish to do so at the relevant contact numbers set out in this Prospectus.

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