What it means for a shareholder

417m new shares at A$0.005 to raise about A$2.1m. That's 20% dilution: every existing holder's slice gets 20% smaller. If you held A$1,000 of shares (200,000 at the issue price), your slice goes from 0.012% to 0.00958% of the company. To keep it you'd need 49,990 more shares - about A$250 at the issue price.
