4. RESOLUTION 4 - RATIFICATION OF PRIOR ISSUE OF 61,817,391 SHARES – ORDINARY

RESOLUTION

Background

On 12 February 2024 the Company announced that it would launch a rights issue to raise NZ$2.8

million through a pro rata renounceable rights issue of one new share for every three existing shares

held. The offer price was NZ$0.02 with potentially 140,008,446 new shares being issued.

The Rights Issue Offer document was lodged with the NZX on 20 February 2024.


7


On 4 March 2024 the Company announced that in conjunction with the rights issue, it had received

firm commitments to raise NZ$0.5 million (25 million shares at NZ$0.02) in a share placement to

professional and sophisticated investors. This placement was increased by a further NZ$0.52 million

(26 million shares at NZ$0.02) as announced to the NZX on 13 March 2024.

The results of the Share Placement and the Rights Issue shares were announced to the NZX on 18

March 2024 and the shares issued on 20 March 2024.

This resolution seeks approval for the Shares issued in the Share Placement referred to above.

4.1 Listing Rule 4.5 (the “15% Rule”) permits the Company to issue ordinary shares without

approval from the Company’s shareholders in certain limited circumstances.

On 20 March 2024, the Company issued 61,817,391 new ordinary fully paid shares at an issue

price of $0.02 per share to raise ~$1.236 million in accordance with the 15% Rule (“Placement

Shares”).

The Placement Shares were issued to Professional and Sophisticated investors together with the

Share Rights Issue which in total raised approximately $2.65 million. The funds raised from the

issues will be used to further the development of the Truscreen device, for marketing and general

working capital.

4.2 Listing Rule 4.5.1(c) allows the Company to renew its capacity to issue ordinary shares within

the 15% Rule, when it has been used, by obtaining subsequent ratification of the issue from

shareholders of the Company.


The Board is seeking the ratification by shareholders of the previous issue of the Placement

Shares.


The effect of this Resolution will be to allow the Company to retain the flexibility to issue Equity

Securities in the future up to the 15% annual placement capacity set out in Listing Rule 4.1.2

without the requirement to obtain prior Shareholder approval.

The Company currently has 552,591,116 shares on issue. In the event this resolution is approved

the Company will have the capacity to issue 82,888,667 (15% of its issued capital LR 7.8.2) new

shares without shareholder approval.

4.3 In the event the Resolution is not passed the Company will be restricted from issuing Equity

Securities other than in accordance with Listing Rule 4.1.2.
