The Share Scheme Meeting will commence at 10.00am on Friday 8 January 2010 at the Westin Hotel, No. 1 Martin Place, Sydney NSW 2000. This will be immediately followed by the Option Scheme Meeting at approximately 10.30am and then the Extraordinary General Meeting at approximately 11.00am. Proxy Forms must be received no later than 10.00am on Wednesday 6 January 2010 for the Share Scheme Meeting, no later than 10.30am on Wednesday 6 January 2010 for the Option Scheme Meeting and no later than 11.00am Wednesday 6 January 2010 for the EGM. The Information Memorandum contains details of the schemes of arrangement and other important information for Security Holders, including an Independent Expert's Report, details of the tax implications of the Proposed Transaction and details of how to vote at the scheme meetings. Copies of the Information Memorandum and Notice of Extraordinary General Meeting are attached. If shareholders and the Australian Federal Court approve the Proposed Transaction, Unilife Corporation will become the ultimate parent company of the Unilife Group and will be the entity that is listed on the ASX (proposed ticker code UNS). It is anticipated that the listing of Unilife Corporation on NASDAQ* (proposed ticker code UNIS) will be completed during February 2010. Upon implementation of the Proposed Transaction, Unilife Corporation will acquire all of the ordinary shares in the Company and, in return, will issue shares of common stock in Unilife Corporation to Shareholders. Likewise, all existing Options in the Company will be replaced with equivalent options in Unilife Corporation. Election for CDIs or common stock Shareholders may choose to receive their shares in Unilife Corporation either in the form of CDIs (that will be quoted on the ASX) or common stock (which Unilife Corporation is applying to be quoted on NASDAQ)* by completing and returning to Computershare Investor Services Pty Limited (Computershare) the election form which will accompany the Information Memorandum. Each CDI will, in general terms, be equivalent to one existing ordinary share in the Company. If shareholders do not submit an election form, they will receive CDIs in exchange for their shares in the Company. As has previously been advised, shareholders will be able to choose between trading CDIs on the ASX or common stock on NASDAQ*. Unilife Corporation shares need to satisfy a minimum price requirement per share of US$4 to be eligible for listing on NASDAQ. Accordingly, as previously announced, shares in the Company will effectively be consolidated on a six for one basis upon implementation of the Proposed Transaction. As a result, CDIs will be exchangeable for common stock on a six to one basis and vice versa at any time following implementation of the Proposed. Computershare will typically be able to process conversions between common stock and CDIs on behalf of Shareholders within 24 hours without any fees being charged to shareholders for this purpose. The Directors strongly encourage Security Holders to read the Information Memorandum and associated documents carefully and seek independent financial, legal or other professional advice in relation to the schemes if required.
