 "C"                                                                                                                                                                                                                                       147,597,319 
-------------------------------------------------------------  --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 
 
 Step 4: Subtract "C" from ["A" x "B"] to 
  calculate remaining placement capacity under 
  rule 7.1 
------------------------------------------------- 
 "A" x 0.15 
  Note: number must be 
  same as shown in Step 
  2                                   439,838,682 
--------------------------  --------------------- 
 Subtract "C" 
  Note: number must be 
  same as shown in Step 
  3                                   147,597,319 
--------------------------  --------------------- 
 Total ["A" x 0.15]                   292,241,363 
  - "C"                        [Note: this is the 
                              remaining placement 
                              capacity under rule 
                                             7.1]

Part 2

 
                        Rule 7.1A - Additional placement capacity 
                                   for eligible entities 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 Step 1: Calculate "A", the base figure from 
  which the placement capacity is calculated 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 "A" 
  Note: number must be 
  same as shown in Step 
  1 of Part 1                                                               2,932,257,879 
--------------------------------------------------------------  ------------------------- 
 Step 2: Calculate 10% of "A" 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 "D"                                                                                 0.10 
                                                                  Note: this value cannot 
                                                                               be changed 
--------------------------------------------------------------  ------------------------- 
 Multiply "A" by 0.10                                                         293,225,787 
--------------------------------------------------------------  ------------------------- 
 Step 3: Calculate "E", the amount of placement 
  capacity under rule 7.1A that has already 
  been used 
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 Insert number of equity                                                              Nil 
  securities issued or 
  agreed to be issued 
  in that 12 month period 
  under rule 7.1A 
  Notes: 
   *    This applies to equity securities - not just ordinary 
        securities 
 
 
   *    Include here - if applicable - the securities the 
        subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is 
        annexed 
 
 
   *    Do not include equity securities issued under rule 
        7.1 (they must be dealt with in Part 1), or for which 
        specific security holder approval has been obtained 
 
 
   *    It may be useful to set out issues of securities on 
        different dates as separate line items 
--------------------------------------------------------------  ------------------------- 
 "E"                                                                                  Nil 
--------------------------------------------------------------  ------------------------- 
 
 
 Step 4: Subtract "E" from ["A" x "D"] to 
  calculate remaining placement capacity under 
  rule 7.1A 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
 "A" x 0.10 
  Note: number must be 
  same as shown in Step 
  2                                                                                        293,225,787 
------------------------  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 Subtract "E" 
  Note: number must be                                                                             Nil 
  same as shown in Step 
  3 
------------------------  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 
 Total ["A" x 0.10] 
  - "E"                                                                                    293,225,787 
                                                                           Note: this is the remaining 
                                                                                    placement capacity 
                                                                                       under rule 7.1A
