If you are a Sponsor or other creditor of Pan, you need to show claims submitted (or which IMF considers you would have been entitled to submit) to the liquidator in excess of AUD $50,000 (excluding applicable GST) - for further details see www.imf.com.au or email Tim McLernon to request a pack at tmclernon@imf.com.au or contact Tim McLernon on 1800 016 464 on or before Monday, 13 October 2008 | 22/09/2008 |

a third interim dividend is paid to creditors (the first was 10 cents, the second 5 cents) at the rate of 10 cents in the dollar - based on current estimates, payment of a fourth and final dividend in the range of 5 to 9 cents in the dollar should be possible following receipt of the balance of the settlement amount from Mr Selim, and once the proceedings in relation to the assigned causes of action against the TGA have concluded - this may not occur until after April 2010 | 23/07/2008 |

Jim Selim pleads not guilty in the Supreme Court of New South Wales in Sydney in relation to four charges brought by ASIC - ASIC alleges Mr Selim gave information to the directors of Pan Pharmaceuticals that he knew omitted certain details, which rendered the information misleading in a material respect - a trial date of 15 October 2007 was set down for the matter to be heard before the Supreme Court of New South Wales | 02/02/2007 |

we understand the litigation against Jim Selim is at a stage where mediation is likely to take place in the second half of February 2005 - the outcome of the proposed mediation is uncertain - in the event that the mediation is unsuccessful, full litigation is likely to proceed - if the matter goes to trial it is likely to be the end of 2006 before the outcome is known | 20/12/2004 |
