Item 8.01. Other Events.

As previously disclosed, Unilife Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Consulting Agreement with the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Alan Shortall, on March 14, 2016 (the “Consulting Agreement”). Pursuant to the Consulting Agreement, the Company agreed to, among other things, issue to Mr. Shortall certain tranches of shares of the Company’s common stock as consideration for the provision of consulting services. As Mr. Shortall is considered to be a “related party” of the Company under the Listing Rules of the Australian Securities Exchange (“ASX”), the Company clarifies that the above-described issuances of shares under the Consulting Agreement will be subject to shareholder approval under ASX Listing Rule 10.11, which the Company intends to seek at the Company’s next annual meeting. The Company filed notice of the foregoing with ASX on March 31, 2016.
