The Options were cancelled as the beneficial holder’s Constitution did not allow it to hold the Options. Each option provides the right for the option holder to be issued one fully paid share in the Company, upon payment of the exercise price of each option once vesting conditions have been met. Historical volatility has been used as the basis for determining expected share price volatility as it is assumed that this is indicative of future trends, which may not eventuate. For service provider options the value of the service rendered was unable to be measured reliably and therefore the value was measured by reference to the fair value of the options issued.
