    Do you think that, given only $10 million is allocated for the new placement, OPT is actually confident in raising the nearly the full $162 million with institutional investors through the capital raising and $55 million for retail backed within the $30 million limited underwriting agreement? With what is left over it seems they plan to conduct a "bookbuild" for any unallocated institutional shares, opening them to new institutional investors. Additionally, Regal is the sub-underwriter for the retail offer, so they will presumably sell off any remaining retail shares at a discount.
    Does this align with your understanding?


    the Placement, being a placement of up to approximately 25.0 million new fully paid ordinary
    shares in the Company to institutional and sophisticated investors at an issue price of $0.40
    per New Share under the Placement to raise up to approximately $10.0 million (with the
    ability to increase the size of the Placement at the Company’s sole discretion).

    The Entitlement Offer has two components, namely:
    (a) the Institutional Entitlement Offer that is expected to raise up to approximately $162.3 million,
    being an offer to Eligible Institutional Shareholders; and
    (b) the Retail Entitlement Offer that is expected to raise approximately $55.0 million, being an offer
    to Eligible Retail Shareholders.
