Oventus Entitlement Offer

Oventus Medical is delighted to offer eligible shareholders the opportunity to participate in our Entitlement
Offer, as announced to the ASX on Monday, May 10, 2021.
It allows eligible shareholders with a registered address in Australia and New Zealand the opportunity to
subscribe for Oventus shares under a fully underwritten 1 for 4.4 pro-rata non-renounceable Entitlement
Offer (New Shares) at the price of $0.12 per Oventus share (Offer Price) for approximately $5 million.
Additionally, for every 2 New Shares subscribed for, eligible shareholders will receive 1 free attaching
option exercisable at $0.24 each on or before the day that is 24 months after the date of issue (New
Option).
The Entitlement Offer is being conducted as part of a wider funding exercise to raise up to $10 million,
comprising the $5 million Entitlement Offer and a placement of $5 million (Placement) with the shares under
Placement offered at the same price as those under Entitlement Offer and options issued under the Placement
offered under the same terms as those under the Entitlement Offer.
The Entitlement Offer of approximately $5 million at $0.12 per Oventus share, will result in the issue of
approximately 41.3 million new fully paid ordinary shares, in addition to the Placement shares.
This capital raising will strengthen Oventus’ balance sheet and enable the Company to enhance its
manufacturing operations and logistics, sales and marketing activities and to support one-off restructuring
and formation costs relating to the reduction in operating expenses as outlined in the Company’s March
Quarterly Business Review.
“The launch of the virtual Lab in Lab program and direct-to-consumer model has been a key
development for Oventus over the past two quarters, supported by the strong growth of telehealth,
which is a lead indicator of our revenue growth. Both models offer Oventus a reduced cost base and
significantly increased scalability, meaning we feel well positioned to deliver significant upside
over the months ahead. In parallel, substantial reductions made to our fixed costs and capex allow
for increased investment into our go-to-market strategy, designed to accelerate our sales
growth.”– Oventus Founder and CEO, Dr Chris Hart
