Overseas Shareholders

Therefore, if you are a shareholder with a registered address other than in Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong (Excluded Shareholder), no offer will be made to you. In making this decision, the Directors have taken into account the small number of overseas Shareholders and the costs and administrative complexity of complying with applicable regulations in jurisdictions outside Australia, New Zealand and Hong Kong.
The issue is partially underwritten by Kesli Chemicals Pty Ltd, a company associated with Director, Michael Ruane. Kesli Chemicals Pty Ltd has agreed to underwrite the issue to the value of $1,120,000 which is the Minimum Subscription level for the issue.
