Cleansing Prospectus

Quantum Graphite Limited (QGL) has today lodged with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission a prospectus pursuant to section 708A(11) of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), the main purpose of which is facilitate secondary trading of any shares that may be issued by it before the closing date under the prospectus.

To ensure shares issued are freely tradeable (i.e., not subject to the secondary trading restrictions provisions of the Corporations Act) the Company is obliged to issue a notice (Cleansing Notice) or a prospectus under sections 708A(5) and 708A(11) of the Corporations Act respectively.

QGL is unable to issue a Cleansing Notice as its shares were suspended from trading on the ASX for more than five trading days over the last 12 months. Accordingly, QGL issues this prospectus under section 708A(11) for the purpose of facilitating secondary trading in any shares issued by it before the closing date under the prospectus.
