Appendix 3B – Annexure 1
Calculation of placement capacity under rule 7.1 and rule 7.1A for +eligible
entities
Introduced 01/08/12. Amended 04/03/13
Part 1
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 Nil
securities on issue 12 months before the
+issue date or date of agreement to issue
Add the following:
771,395,766 (ordinary shares on listing)
• Number of fully paid +ordinary securities
issued in that 12 month period under an 83,523,344 (ordinary shares – Placing)
exception in rule 7.2
• Number of fully paid +ordinary securities
issued in that 12 month period with
shareholder approval
• Number of partly paid +ordinary
securities that became fully paid in that
12 month period
Note:
• Include only ordinary securities here –
other classes of equity securities cannot
be added
• Include here (if applicable) the securities
the subject of the Appendix 3B to which
this form is annexed
• It may be useful to set out issues of
securities on different dates as separate
line items
Subtract the number of fully paid +ordinary Nil
securities cancelled during that 12 month
period

“A”
3437-8987-5466v1
+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.
Appendix 3B Page 10 04/03/2013
Step 2: Calculate 15% of “A”
“B” 0.15
[Note: this value cannot be changed]
Multiply “A” by 0.15 128,237,866
Step 3: Calculate “C”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1
that has already been used
Insert number of +equity securities issued 1,618,250 (ordinary shares – Loan)
or agreed to be issued in that 12 month
period not counting those issued: 250,000 (Equity Warrants – Loan)
• Under an exception in rule 7.2

• Under rule 7.1A
4,315,333 (ordinary shares – Placing fees
• With security holder approval under rule settled via shares)
7.1 or rule 7.4
Note:
• This applies to equity securities, unless
specifically excluded – not just ordinary
securities
• Include here (if applicable ) the
securities the subject of the Appendix
3B to which this form is annexed
• It may be useful to set out issues of
securities on different dates as separate
line items
“C” 19,078,242
Step 4: Subtract “C” from [“A” x “B”] to calculate remaining
placement capacity under rule 7.1
“A” x 0.15 128,237,866
Note: number must be same as shown in
Step 2
Subtract “C” 19,078,242
Note: number must be same as shown in
Step 3
Total [“A” x 0.15] – “C” 109,159,624

capacity under rule 7.1]
