Under the Amendment Agreement, pSivida will exchange with the Investor its original Subordinated Convertible Note for an Amended and Restated Convertible Note in the amount of $12.5 million that is secured by certain royalty payments and a warrant exercisable for up to 5,700,000 American Depositary Shares (ADSs) of pSivida and will pay the Investor $3.5 million in partial satisfaction and redemption of the original Subordinated Convertible Note, any accrued and unpaid interest on the Subordinated Convertible Note, and any penalties incurred as a result of the delay in effectiveness of the registration statement filed in connection with the Securities Purchase Agreement.

·  
The note has a face value of US$12,500,000.
 

 
·  
The note may be converted by the holder into ADSs at any time prior to the third anniversary of the date of the original issuance of the note. The number of shares to be issued upon conversion of the note is to be calculated by dividing the face value of the note to be converted (and any accrued but unpaid interest on the note) by the conversion price, as adjusted, of the ADSs.
 
·  
The conversion price is US$2.00 per ADS and may be adjusted under certain circumstances, including, among others, in the event pSivida issues securities at a lower price than the price at which the note may be converted and based on the market price of pSivida’s ADSs on April 30, 2007.
 
·  
The note matures on November 16, 2008 and bears interest at the rate of 8% per annum.
 
·  
Under certain circumstances, pSivida may make interest payments in the form of ADSs.
 
·  
The note contains certain events of default which allow the Investor to accelerate the maturity of the note and permit the Investor to force payment of the note in the event of a change of control of pSivida.
 
·  
pSivida has the right, in certain specified circumstances, to force the Investor to convert the note into ADSs, including if the ADSs are trading at 200% of the conversion price during a specified period.

·  
pSivida may redeem the note, at its option, in whole or in part at any time at a price equal to 108% of the outstanding principal to be redeemed. In connection with any such redemption, pSivida will issue warrants exercisable for a number of shares equal to 30% of such redemption amount divided by the then applicable conversion price.
 
·  
There is a limit of 4.99% in respect of the Investor and its affiliates’ beneficial ownership in pSivida, which may prevent it from converting part of the note (this limit may be increased or decreased by the Investor upon written notice to pSivida).
 
·  
The note contains various negative covenants, including limitations on the incurrence of debt and liens, and the maintenance of certain cash levels.
 
The Form of Amended and Restated Convertible Note was furnished on pSivida’s Form 6-K filed on July 31, 2006. The final version of the Amended and Restated Convertible Note is furnished on the Form 6-K to which this Supplemental Disclosure is also an Exhibit.
