About REVA

 

REVA is a development stage medical device company located in San Diego, California, USA, that is focused on the development, testing, and eventual commercialization of its proprietary bioresorbable stents, which are called “scaffolds” because of their temporary nature. The Company’s scaffolds are being developed as an alternative to metal stents, which are small tube-like devices permanently implanted into an artery to treat coronary artery disease. Scaffolds provide restoration of blood flow, support the artery through the healing process, then disappear (or “resorb”) from the body over a period of time. This resorption allows the return of natural movement and function of the artery, a result not attainable with permanent metal stents. The Company has conducted clinical studies of its scaffold technologies; a total of 112 patients were enrolled in its most recent clinical trial in Australia, Brazil, Europe, and New Zealand, with enrollment completed during January 2014. The patients in this trial will be followed for a total of five years, with primary data to be obtained at nine and 12 months. The Company is now developing and testing its FantomTM scaffold, with initial human implants planned for late 2014 at multiple centers in Brazil and Europe. The Fantom scaffold has been designed to offer distinct ease-of-use features including complete scaffold visibility under x-ray, expansion with one continuous inflation, no procedural time limitations, and standard storage and handling. REVA will require successful clinical results and regulatory approval before it can commercialize Fantom or any of its other products.

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 securities on issue 12 months before the +issue date or date of agreement to issue

 

332,700,530 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

 

 

Add the following:

 

·                  Number of fully paid +ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period under an 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

 

259,725 shares of common stock (equivalent to 2,597,250 CDIs).

 

 

 

Subtract the number of fully paid +ordinary securities cancelled during that 12 month period

 

Nil

 

 

 

“A”

 

335,297,780 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 



 

Step 2: Calculate 15% of “A”

 

“B”

 

0.15

 

 

 

Multiply “A” by 0.15

 

50,294,667 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

Step 3: Calculate “C”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1 that has already been used

 

Insert number of +equity securities issued or agreed to be issued in that 12 month period not counting those issued:

 

·                  Under an exception in rule 7.2

 

·                  Under rule 7.1A

 

·                  With security holder approval under rule 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

 

Nil

 

 

 

“C”

 

Nil

 

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

 

50,294,667 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

 

 

Subtract “C”

 

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3

 

Nil

 

 

 

Total [“A” x 0.15] – “C”

 

50,294,667 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1

 


+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.

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

 

335,297,780 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

Step 2: Calculate 10% of “A”

 

“D”

 

0.10

 

 

 

Multiply “A” by 0.10

 

33,529,778 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

Step 3: Calculate “E”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1A that has already been used

 

Insert number of +equity 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

 

Nil

 

 

 

“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

 

33,529,778 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

 

 

Subtract “E”

 

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3

 

Nil

 

 

 

Total [“A” x 0.10] – “E”

 

33,529,778 CDIs (assuming all shares of common stock were held as CDIs).

 

Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A
