Dear Shareholder
Invion Limited Entitlement Offer – notice to eligible shareholders
On 20 March 2015, Invion Limited (Invion) announced a $5 million equity raising through a $895,000
placement to professional and sophisticated investors (Placement), and a $4.1 million 2 for 7 nonrenounceable rights issue to existing shareholders (Entitlement Offer) (together the Equity Raising) of fully
paid ordinary shares in Invion (New Shares).
Funds raised from the Placement and Entitlement Offer will be applied to the further development of
Invion’s three drug assets - INV102 (nadolol), INV103 (ala-Cpn10) and INV104 (zafirulkast), as well as for
general working capital.
The Entitlement Offer is fully underwritten by Patersons Securities Limited ACN 008 896 311 and Morgans
Corporate Limited ACN 010 539 607.
Summary of key terms of the Entitlement Offer
Under the Entitlement Offer, Eligible Shareholders (defined below) will be invited to subscribe for 2 New
Shares for every 7 existing Invion ordinary shares held at 7.00pm (AEDT) on Thursday 26 March 2015
(Record Date) at an offer price of 2.5 cents per New Share (Entitlement).
The Entitlement Offer is being made at the same offer price as the Placement.
Eligibility of shareholders to participate in the Entitlement Offer
You are being sent this letter because Invion believes you may be an Eligible Shareholder. An Eligible
Shareholder means a holder of Invion Shares at 7.00pm (AEDT) on the Record Date who:
has a registered address in Australia and New Zealand or is a Shareholder that Invion has otherwise
determined is eligible to participate; and
is eligible under all applicable securities laws to receive an offer under the Entitlement Offer without
any requirement for a prospectus to be lodged or registered.
The Entitlement Offer is being made by Invion without a disclosure document or product disclosure
statement in accordance with section 708AA of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) (as notionally
modified by ASIC Class Order 08/35). Shareholder approval is not required for Invion to make the offer
under the Entitlement Offer.
If you are not an Eligible Shareholder you cannot participate in the Entitlement Offer. Once the Record
Date has passed, Invion will notify those shareholders who are not Eligible Shareholders.
Further details about the Entitlement Offer
Eligible Shareholders who take up their full Entitlement, may subscribe for additional New Shares from a
pool of those not taken up by Eligible Shareholders as at the closing date of the Entitlement Offer (Top
Up Facility). There is no guarantee that applicants under the Top Up Facility will receive the number of
New Shares applied for under the Top Up Facility, or any. The Directors reserve the right to scale-back
and allot and issue New Shares under the Top Up Facility at their discretion.

The Directors also reserve the right, subject to the requirements of the Listing Rules and the Corporations
Act 2001 (Cth), to place any shortfall shares remaining after the close of the Entitlement Offer (and
completion of the Top Up Facility, if any), including those Entitlements of ineligible shareholders which
were unable to be taken up under the Entitlement Offer, within 3 months after the closing date of the
Entitlement Offer to either existing or new Shareholders at their discretion at a price not less than the
Offer Price of New Shares under the Entitlements Offer.
The Entitlement Offer is non-renounceable. Accordingly, Entitlements do not trade on the ASX, nor can
they be transferred or otherwise disposed of.
Fractional Entitlements will be rounded up to the nearest whole number of New Shares and holdings on
different registers or sub-registers will not be aggregated to calculate Entitlements.
Information Booklet
An information booklet and personalised entitlement and acceptance form will be issued to Eligible
Shareholders after the Record Date which will set out the number of New Shares Eligible Shareholders
are entitled to purchase under the Entitlement Offer. A copy of the information booklet is also available
