ASX RELEASE
9 June 2017
UNMARKETABLE PARCEL SALE FACILITY
Zoono Group Limited (ASX:ZNO) is pleased to announce an unmarketable parcel sale facility for holders of unmarketable parcels of the Company’s shares.
The ASX Listing Rules define an unmarketable parcel to include a parcel of shares with a market value of less than A$500. As at 7:00 pm (EST) on 7 June 2017 ( Record Date ), an unmarketable parcel of shares is any shareholding of 3,124 ordinary shares or less, based on the closing price of $0.16 on the Record Date ( Closing Price ). This represents 431,298 ordinary shares, held by 2,316 shareholders ( Minority Members ).
The Company is offering this sale facility to assist holders of unmarketable parcels to sell shares without having to engage a broker or pay brokerage. The Company will pay for all the costs of the sale for shareholders who use this facility, excluding tax consequences from the sale which remains the shareholder’s responsibility.
The Company values all of its shareholders, however, it incurs significant administrative costs maintaining such a large number of unmarketable parcels. By facilitating this sale, the Company expects to reduce the administrative costs associated with maintaining a large number of very small holdings. Shareholders who own 3,125 shares or more will not be eligible to participate.
If Minority Members wish to sell shares through this facility, they do not need to take any action. If Minority Members do not wish to sell shares through this facility, they must complete and return the Notice of Retention Form to the Company’s share registry, Boardroom Pty Limited, by 5.00pm (EST) on 21 July 2017 ( Retention Date ).
Upon the sale of the unmarketable parcel shares by the appointed broker, proceeds shall be forwarded to eligible shareholders as soon as practicable.
Attached is a copy of the letter and the Notice of Retention Form that is being mailed to shareholders that are holding an unmarketable parcel of shares on the Record Date.

1. WHAT IS AN UNMARKETABLE PARCEL OF SHARES?
An unmarketable parcel of shares is a holding of Zoono shares valued at less than A$500 as at close of trade on the Record Date. Based on the price of Zoono shares at the Record Date, this is a holding of 3,124 shares or less.
2. WHAT PRICE WILL I RECEIVE FOR SHARES SOLD THROUGH THE FACILITY?
The price that you receive for your shares under the Facility will be determined by when and how the shares are sold. The Company may sell your shares on market or in any other way they consider fair and reasonable in the circumstances. If the shares are sold on market the price will depend on a number of factors, including market conditions at the time of sale. You will not have control over the time at which your shares are sold, the price you receive may be different from the price appearing in the newspaper or quoted by ASX on any day, may not be the best price on the day that your shares are sold and may be an average price per share based on the price obtained for all the shares sold under the Facility. If the Company sells your shares other than on market, the price will be the price that the Company has been able to negotiate with the acquirer or acquirers. In any event, the sale price will not be less than that price equal to the simple average of the last sale prices of the shares quoted on ASX for each of the ten trading days immediately preceding the date of any offer received by the Company.
3. WHAT IS THE PRICE OF ZOONO GROUP LIMITED SHARES?
The last sale price of Zoono shares on 8 June 2017 was A$0.16. The share price can change frequently and more recent prices are available from the ASX website (www.asx.com.au) under the ASX code “ZNO”.
4. WHEN WILL THE PROCEEDS FROM THE SALE OF SHARES BE SENT TO ME?
Payment will be sent to you following settlement of the sale or otherwise as soon as is practicable. Payment will be made in Australian dollars by cheque. You will be notified by way of a transaction confirmation statement of the number of your shares sold, and the price and total sale proceeds. The cheque will be sent by post to your address as shown in the share register at the time the share sale payment is run.
5. IF I BUY MORE SHARES, WILL I RETAIN MY HOLDING?
Yes, the Company will treat any purchase of additional shares that increases the value of a Zoono shareholding to more than A$500 as an indication that you do not want your shares to be sold through the Facility. For a purchase to be an effective notification that you wish to retain your shares, any additional shares purchased must be registered by 5:00pm (EST) on 21 July 2017 under the same name and address and with the same holder number (SRN or HIN) as set out in this letter.
6. WHAT IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN A CHESS HOLDING?
If your Shares remain in a CHESS holding at 5:00pm (WST) on 21 July 2017, the Company may move those Shares to an issuer sponsored holding and the Shares will be sold through the Facility.

7. WHERE CAN I GET FURTHER INFORMATION?
If you have any questions concerning your shareholding or how the Facility will be administered, please contact the Company Secretary on telephone 0411 764 556 or by email to [email protected].
8. IMPORTANT NOTES
The Company reserves the right to change any of the dates referred to in this letter by notice to the ASX.
The letter does not constitute advice nor a recommendation to buy, sell or hold shares, nor that the Facility is the best way to sell your Zoono shares.
If you are in any doubt about what to do, you should consult your legal, financial or taxation adviser.
NOTE:
If you currently have more than one holding on the Zoono share register, you may wish to consider amalgamating them. This may result in your amalgamated holding no longer being an Unmarketable Parcel. Under these circumstances your shares will not be sold as part of this Facility.
