On July 20, 2023, Propanc Biopharma, Inc. (the "Company") reported to have entered into a common stock purchase agreement (the "Equity Line Agreement") with an institutional investor (the "Investor") providing for an equity financing facility, pursuant to which Company has the option to request that the Investor commit to purchase up to $5,000,000 of the Company’s shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), over a 24-month term commencing on the date on which a registration statement filed by the Company to register the offer and resale of the Shares by the Investor (the "Registration Statement") is declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"). Pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement, the Company has the option to exercise this right by providing a notice (a "Drawdown Notice") from the Company to the Investor setting forth the number of Shares that the Investor will purchase. The Company has agreed to use the proceeds from such issuances for the purpose of financing its research and product development activities, finished product manufacture for clinical studies, working capital requirements and general corporate purposes.

Pursuant to the Equity Line Agreement, purchases of Shares cannot occur unless and until certain conditions are met, including but not limited to, the SEC declaring the Registration Statement effective, and the maximum number of Shares that may be purchased pursuant to a Drawdown Notice cannot exceed the lesser of (i) 200% of the average daily traded value of the Common Stock during the five (5) business days immediately preceding a Drawdown Notice or (ii) $200,000; provided that in no event may a Drawdown Notice be for less than $5,000, exceed 52,500,000 Shares or cause the Investor’s ownership to exceed 4.99% of the outstanding number of shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the issuance of such Shares. The actual amount of proceeds that the Company will receive in connection with each Drawdown Notice is determined under the Equity Line Agreement by multiplying the number of Shares to be sold by the applicable purchase price per share, which is equal to 85% of the lowest traded price of the Common Stock during the 7 business days immediately following the Clearing Date, less Clearing Costs (as each such term is defined in the Equity Line Agreement).
Additionally, in connection with the Equity Line Agreement, the Company and the Investor entered into a registration rights agreement, dated July 20, 2023 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to register the maximum number of Shares within 45 days of the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, subject to any comments from the SEC and applicable laws, rules and regulations.
