 of AUD$5 million of incentives plus a grant of tax incentives. The balance of the capital stack to fund the plant includes AUD$3 million of funding generated from operating cashflow, AUD$6 million to AUD$10 million in a bank funding facility for construction and equipment financing, and AUD$8 million to AUD$11 million of equity funding to complete the new plant within 15 months. If the Company does not raise all or any of the AUD$8 million to AUD$11 million of equity funding, the Company intends to fund the shortfall from the Company’s operating cashflow, which would reduce its results of operation. Upon completion of construction of the new facility, Energreen Nutrition Australia Pty Ltd. will transfer CQ Oilseeds Pty Ltd. and its assets, including the new facility to the Company via a transfer agreement.

Between the two facilities, total capacity is expected to be approximately four times the current capacity (160,000 metric tons anticipated, up from 40,000 metric tons). The Company’s revenue growth included in the financial projections assumed this significant increase in production capacity due to the new facility in Emerald, Queensland and expansion of the Cootamundra facility, as well as success in rolling out AOI’s branded products.

The development and construction of real estate is subject to timing, budgeting and other risks that may adversely affect AOI’s operating results such as the availability of financing on favorable terms and development risks relating to an inability to obtain, or delays in obtaining, necessary entitlements, zoning, land-use, building occupancy and other required governmental permit authorizations. Acts of God such as earthquakes, hurricanes, floods or fires could adversely impact a project and governmental restrictions on the nature or size of the project. Other significant risks include management of the architect and general contractor (including development of a timeline for construction), procurement of all necessary equipment and inventory, and sufficient and capable staffing related thereto. If any of the above occurs, or fails to occur, as the case may be, the ability of the Company to achieve its revenue projections could be adversely affected. In addition, development activities, regardless of whether they are ultimately successful, may require a substantial portion of the Company’s time and attention. As a result, our business, financial condition and results of operations may be materially and adversely affected.
