AVITA Medical Limited
Proposed redomiciliation to the United States of America
registration of Scheme Booklet with ASIC and financial reporting
relief granted by ASIC
Valencia, Calif., USA, and Melbourne, Australia, 12 May 2020: AVITA Medical Limited (Company) (ASX:AVH, NASDAQ:RCEL) is
pleased to announce that the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has registered the scheme booklet (Scheme Booklet) in relation to the proposed scheme of arrangement under which AVITA Therapeutics, Inc. (Avita
US), a newly-formed company incorporated in Delaware in the United States of America, will become the parent company of the Company and its subsidiaries (Avita Group) for the purposes of effecting a redomiciliation of the Avita Group from
Australia to the United States of America (Scheme).
A copy of the Scheme Booklet in full is attached to this announcement. The Scheme Booklet
includes the Notice of Scheme Meeting and an Independent Expert s Report prepared by BDO Corporate Finance Limited, who has concluded that, in its opinion, the Scheme is in the best interests of the Company s shareholders as a whole.
Despatch of Scheme Booklet
A copy of the Scheme Booklet,
which includes the Notice of Scheme Meeting and Independent Expert s Report, and a proxy form, will be sent to the Company s shareholders by post or electronically (for those shareholders who have opted to receive notices electronically)
on or before 14 May 2020.
Scheme meeting will be held exclusively as a virtual meeting by way of a live webcast at 9.00am (AEST) on 15 June 2020. The Company s shareholders are encouraged to read the Scheme Booklet in its entirety and vote at the Scheme meeting
either by participating in the live webcast or by appointing a proxy, attorney or corporate representative (as applicable). Details and instructions on how to take part and vote are included in the Scheme Booklet.
Financial reporting relief granted by ASIC
with the Scheme, the Company applied to ASIC for relief from the requirement for the Company to prepare and lodge with ASIC an annual report in accordance with Australian International Financial Reporting Standards (AIFRS) for the financial
year in which the Scheme was implemented.
The reason for the Company seeking this relief was to reduce the substantial costs, burden and risks associated
with the dual financial reporting and related compliance obligations that the Company currently has in both the United States and Australia as a result of being treated (since 31 December 2019) as a domestic public company in both of these
jurisdictions for financial reporting purposes.
The Company is pleased to announce that ASIC has granted relief so that, if the Scheme is implemented on
or before 30 June 2020, the Company will not be required to prepare and lodge with ASIC an annual report for the financial year ending 30 June 2020 in accordance with AIFRS.

In order to comply with the conditions to the relief:
If the Scheme is implemented on or before 30 June 2020, it is anticipated that the Avita Group will save approximately A$400,000
in external professional costs as a result of obtaining this relief.
Authorised for release by the Chief Financial Officer of AVITA Medical Limited.
AVITA Medical is a regenerative medicine company with a technology platform positioned to address unmet medical needs in burns, chronic
wounds, and aesthetics indications. AVITA Medical s patented and proprietary collection and application technology provides innovative treatment solutions derived from the regenerative properties of a patient s own skin. The medical
devices work by preparing a REGENERATIVE EPIDERMAL SUSPENSION (RES ), an autologous suspension comprised of the patient s skin
cells necessary to regenerate natural healthy epidermis. This autologous suspension is then sprayed onto the areas of the patient requiring treatment.
AVITA Medical s first U.S. product, the RECELL System, was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) in September 2018. The RECELL System is indicated for use in the treatment of acute thermal burns in patients 18 years and older. The RECELL System is used to prepare Spray-On Skin Cells using a small amount of a patient s own skin, providing a new way to treat severe burns, while significantly reducing the amount of donor skin required. The RECELL System is designed
to be used at the point of care alone or in combination with autografts depending on the depth of the burn injury. Compelling data from randomized, controlled clinical trials conducted at major U.S. burn centers and real-world use in more than 8,000
patients globally, reinforce that the RECELL System is a significant advancement over the current standard of care for burn patients and offers benefits in clinical outcomes and cost savings. Healthcare professionals should read the INSTRUCTIONS FOR
USE RECELL Autologous Cell Harvesting Device (https://recellsystem.com/) for a full description of indications for use and important safety information including
contraindications, warnings and precautions.
In international markets, our products are marketed under the RECELL System brand to promote skin healing in
a wide range of applications including burns, chronic wounds and aesthetics. The RECELL System is TGA-registered in Australia and received CE-mark approval in Europe.
