  (b) It is acknowledged that the Convertible Securities and the Convertible Securities issued under the Other Purchases be secured and rank equally in priority.

 

3.7Amortisation Payments

(ii)the average dollar trading volume over the period from (and including) the 25th day of the preceding calendar month and ending on (and including) the calendar day immediately prior to the Amortisation Payment Date on ASX and Chi-X combined is less than A$90,000, the Company must redeem Convertible Securities with an aggregate Face Value of the Amortisation Face Value Amount, by making payment to the Investor in accordance with this clause 3.7.

  (i) paying the Investor the Redemption Amount in respect of those Convertible Securities; or

 

  (ii) (subject to clauses 3.7(c) and 4.5) issuing Shares to the Investor, with the number of Shares to be issued determined by dividing the Amortisation Face Value Amount (converted into A$ using the Exchange Rate) by the Amortisation Price.

  (iii) no Event of Default or Material Adverse Effect has occurred; and

 

  (iv) the Company is able to issue the Shares in full compliance with this Agreement (including clauses 4 and 5)

 

(d)For clarity, where the Company is not able to elect to redeem the relevant Convertible Securities by issuing Shares to the Investor, the Company must on the relevant Amortisation Payment Date pay the Investor the Redemption Amount in respect of those Convertible Securities.

 

(e)Upon the Company redeeming the relevant Convertible Securities in accordance with this clause, those Convertible Securities will be redeemed and the Amount Outstanding will be reduced by the Amortisation Face Value Amount.

 

13

 

 

(f)The Investor may elect to waive in writing the payment of an Amortisation Face Value Amount, and in return for waiving each such payment, and subject to clause 4.5, the Company will issue the Investor additional Options equivalent to 5% of 110% of the Purchase Price (with the resulting amount converted to A$ using the Exchange Rate as at the Purchase Date), divided by the closing price of the Shares on ASX on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Purchase Date, and rounded upward to the next whole number, up to an aggregate additional number of Options of 75% of 110% of the Purchase Price (with the resulting amount converted to A$ using the Exchange Rate as at the Purchase Date), divided by the closing price of the Shares on ASX on the Trading Day immediately prior to the Purchase Date, and rounded upward to the next whole number, in the event that the Investor waived its entitlement for all 15 monthly Amortisation Face Value Amounts, assuming they all became applicable based on clause 3.7(a).

 

3.8Replacement Convertible Securities

 

(a)If at any time the average daily VWAP during any 10 Trading Days is less than the Floor Price, and only if the Company and the Investor both agree in writing (at both Parties’ respective sole discretion), then the Company must, within 60 days of that occurring:

15.14Adjustments

 

  (a) Each time when a Security Structure Event occurs, the Fixed Conversion Price and the Floor Price will be reduced or, as the case may be, increased, in the same proportion as the issued capital of the Company is, as the case may be, consolidated, subdivided or cancelled.

(all of which prices will be a Lesser Price) then the Fixed Conversion Price will be reduced to the Lesser Price with effect from the date of the issue of the Shares, options, or debt, equity or equity-linked securities (as applicable).

16.Terms of the Options

41

 

 

16.4Rights Issues

Full effect will be given to the provisions of clauses 16.3 to 16.5, as and when occasions of their application arise and in such manner that the effects of the successive applications of them are cumulative, the intention being that the adjustments they progressively effect will be such as to reflect, in relation to the Shares issuable on exercise of the Options outstanding, the adjustments which on the occasions in question are progressively effected in relation to Shares already on issue.
