Rule 7.1 – Issues exceeding 15% of capital
Step 1: Calculate “A”, the base figure from which the placement capacity is calculated
Insert number of fully paid +ordinary securities on issue 12 months before the +issue date or date of agreement to issue 533,891,470

Add the following:

 

•     Number of fully paid +ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period under an exception in rule 7.2

 

•     Number of fully paid +ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period with shareholder approval

+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.

Step 3: Calculate “C”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1 that has already been used

•     Under an exception in rule 7.2

 

•     Under rule 7.1A

“C” Nil

 

Step 4: Subtract “C” from [“A” x “B”] to calculate remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1

“A” x 0.15

 

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 2

 

80,083,721
