Appendix 3B
Following review of the Company’s records, it was noted that Appendix 3B for the US$20 million Convertible Note issue, which was announced on 31 October 2016 and approved by shareholders at the General Meeting on 7 February 2017, was not lodged within the required period.
In relation to the late lodgement of this Appendix 3B, please note the following:
The late lodgement is due to administrative oversight by the Company.
Range believes it has adequate arrangements in place to lodge Appendix 3B immediately following the issue of securities to meet its disclosure obligations under listing rule 3.10.5. The Company will ensure that all future disclosures of this nature are made within the required timeframes.

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 | 7,589,790,100 |
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 |
|
Subtract the number of fully paid +ordinary securities cancelled during that 12 month period |
|
"A" | 7,589,790,100 |
Step 2: Calculate 15% of "A" | |
"B" | 0.15 [Note: this value cannot be changed] |
Multiply "A" by 0.15 | 1,138,468,515 |
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 |
6,040,682 |
"C" | 6,040,682 |
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 | 1,138,468,515 |
Subtract "C" Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3 | 6,040,682 |
Total ["A" x 0.15] - "C" | 1,132,427,833 [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 | Not applicable |
Step 2: Calculate 10% of "A" | |
"D" | 0.10 Note: this value cannot be changed |
Multiply "A" by 0.10 |
|
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 |
|
"E" |
|
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 |
|
Subtract "E" Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3 |
|
Total ["A" x 0.10] - "E" |
Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A |
