Section 2 Key dates and Offer details

2.2 Reinvestment Offer

The Reinvestment Offer provides Eligible AYUHB Holders with the ability to apply to have some or all of their AYUHB purchased by Australian Unity, with a portion of the proceeds received applied directly to the subscription for an equivalent number of Bonds.

Eligible AYUHB Holders applying under the Reinvestment Offer can apply for either Series C Australian Unity Bonds – Tranche 1 or Series D Australian Unity Bonds – Tranche 1 (or a combination of each Series of Bonds).

You are an Eligible AYUHB Holder and eligible to participate in the Reinvestment Offer if:

  • you were a registered holder of AYUHB as at 7.00pm on 5 September 2019;

  • you are shown on the register of holders of AYUHB as having an address in Australia (or another jurisdiction to which Australian Unity determines to extend the Reinvestment Offer); and

  • Australian Unity is satisfied that you are not in the United States or a US person, or acting as a nominee for, or for the account or benefit of, a US person, and are not otherwise prevented from receiving the Offer under the laws of any jurisdiction.

Further information on the Reinvestment Offer and how to apply is set out in Section 4. Before submitting an Application under the Reinvestment Offer you should read that information as the Reinvestment Offer is not a simple rollover into a similar investment. AYUHB and the Bonds, while having a number of similar features, have different benefits and risks (as outlined in Section 4.3(e)), that must be evaluated independently.

If you have any questions about the Bonds or the Offer, you should seek advice from your financial adviser or other professional adviser. You can also call the Australian Unity Bonds information line on 1800 992 793 (within Australia) or +61 1800 992 793 (outside Australia) Monday to Friday 8:30am – 5:30pm.

Offer specific information you should consider

PART A OFFER SPECIFIC PROSPECTUS

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

3.1 Business update

Constitutional amendments under consideration

Australian Unity is proposing to seek approval under section 167AJ of the Corporations Act to amend its Constitution to enable it to issue Mutual Capital Instruments. Mutual Capital Instruments are a new permanent capital instrument that can only be issued by eligible mutual entities. Like other financial instruments Mutual Capital Instruments will generally offer a rate of return and may be able to be bought and sold. For the proposed amendments to Australian Unity’s Constitution to permit the issuance of Mutual Capital Instruments to be binding they will need to be approved by a special resolution of members. Any Mutual Capital Instruments issued by Australian Unity if approval is obtained would rank junior to the Bonds for payment of distributions and repayment on a winding-up of Australian Unity.

3.2 Use of proceeds of the Offer

The proceeds of the Offer will be used to refinance the Series B Australian Unity Bonds that participate in the Reinvestment Offer and for general corporate purposes.

3.3 Effect of the Offer on Australian Unity

Assuming the Offer raises $300 million, there will be no material impact on the net assets of Australian Unity as the net cash raised (after transaction costs of $5.8 million) from the issue of the Bonds will be used initially to repay existing debt or held in cash and may then be invested in a manner consistent with Australian Unity Group’s strategy. The subsequent application of cash to undetermined future investments may result in a higher Covenant Gearing Ratio.

3.4 Key Financial Ratios

Sources of financial information

This section describes some of the key financial indicators that will help you assess the financial position and strength of Australian Unity. In addition to these key financial indicators, you should also consider Australian Unity’s financial statements for the year ended 30 June 2019 which are available at www.australianunity.com.au/about-us/annual-reports.

You must refer to Section 3.8.2 of the Base Prospectus which describes the Key Financial Ratios.

The tables below set out:

  • the prescribed Key Financial Ratios (Gearing Ratio, Interest Cover Ratio and Working Capital Ratio) which are calculated on the basis prescribed by the Corporations Act and Corporations Regulation 6D.2.06;

  • the Covenant Gearing Ratio, which is the gearing ratio typically reported by the business and is reflected in certain of Australian Unity’s credit facilities and, in particular, which is a provision of the Base Terms;

  • the Australian Unity Interest Cover Ratio, which the Australian Unity Group also uses to monitor the state of its business; and

  • the ADI Tier 1 Capital Ratio.

The ratios are based on financial information for the financial years ended 30 June 2017, 30 June 2018 and 30 June 2019 and on the basis of applicable accounting standards in force as at those dates. For ongoing reporting of these ratios the amount of debt included in the Covenant Gearing Ratio will continue to be calculated by reference to the Australian Accounting Standards in place as at the date of the Base Prospectus, unless Australian Unity decides to determine the amount of debt in accordance with current applicable accounting standards and notifies the Holders of that decision. As a result, a change in accounting standards may cause movements in the prescribed Gearing Ratio but will not change the calculation methodology of the Covenant Gearing Ratio.

PART A OFFER SPECIFIC PROSPECTUS – 17

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

Australian Unity currently has no secured debt or unsecured debt which ranks ahead of the Bonds, however, the Bonds place only limited restrictions on Australian Unity granting security for other indebtedness (see Section 2.1.4 of the Base Prospectus). Certain Subsidiaries of Australian Unity have external borrowings. The debt of Australian Unity’s Subsidiaries is generally non-recourse to Australian Unity. Notwithstanding this, any default at a Subsidiary level, including any ADI, may still have important consequences for Australian Unity, including the potential to reduce cash flows to Australian Unity, to cause Australian Unity to extend resources supporting the Subsidiary, to cause a write-down in the value of Australian Unity’s investments in its subsidiaries and to affect Australian Unity’s ability to obtain credit. These consequences may impact on Australian Unity’s ability to meet its obligations in respect of the Bonds.

Most of Australian Unity’s claims on its Subsidiaries rank behind creditors of those Subsidiaries and the Bonds are not guaranteed by a Subsidiary so no Holder has a claim on any Subsidiary. The chart below sets out the maturity profile of Australian Unity and its Subsidiary external debt facility drawings including capital markets debt as at 30 June 2019. The second chart below shows the adjusted debt maturity profile of Australian Unity and its Subsidiaries following the Offer, based on assumptions of the adjustments arising from the potential purchase and cancellation of AYUHB resulting from the offer to holders of AYUHB to subscribe for Bonds using proceeds from the AYUHB, which is described in Section 4.3 (“Reinvestment Offer”).

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

Australian Unity’s existing external debt facilities and their maturities are as follows as at 30 June 2019:

Facility Amount drawn Maturity
Revolving Loan Facility1 $0.0m March 2021
Series B Australian Unity Bonds $250.0m December 2020

The existing interest bearing external debt obligations and their maturities for Subsidiaries of Australian Unity are as follows as at 30 June 2019:

==> picture [497 x 21] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

Facility Amount drawn Maturity
----- End of picture text -----

Herston Quarter Redevelopment $18.0m Expected Q2FY21
Project Loan2
ADI deposits (interest bearing liabilities) $806.1m On demand subject to notice
Retirement Village Investment Notes $25.4m November 2019 to December 2020
Other external loans $5.1m Rolling three month

The Australian Unity Group had $36.8 million of outstanding bank guarantees as at 30 June 2019.

The issue of the Bonds and the cancellation of AYUHB of holders which participate in the Reinvestment Offer will have the effect of lengthening the debt maturity profile of the Australian Unity Group. The resulting debt maturity profile may reduce Australian Unity’s exposure to refinancing risk in the coming years.

Under the Terms of AYUHB, Australian Unity has the right (but not the obligation) to redeem all (but not some) of the AYUHB if a “Clean Up Condition” subsists. A “Clean Up Condition” will subsist in respect of the AYUHB if less than 10 percent of the aggregate face value of the AYUHB remain on issue. Australian Unity currently expects that if a “Clean Up Condition” subsists as a result of participation in the Offer, and Australian Unity has access to appropriate additional funding, it will likely redeem the balance of outstanding AYUHB prior to their maturity date in accordance with their terms. On such a redemption, holders of AYUHB will be paid the “Redemption Amount”, being the face value of each AYUHB and any accrued interest to (but excluding) the redemption date.

3.6.1 About Australia Ratings

Australia Ratings is licensed by ASIC to issue Credit Ratings for use in the retail and wholesale financial markets. For more information visit www.australiaratings.com.

3.6.2 Credit Ratings

A Credit Rating is a statement, opinion or research in relation to the creditworthiness of a body or the ability of an issuer of a financial product to meet its obligations under the financial product.

Australia Ratings assigns Credit Ratings to differentiate the degree of credit worthiness of organisations and debt securities available to investors in the Australian financial market. Credit Ratings are assigned on a long-term and short-term rating scale. A long-term Credit Rating is assigned to an organisation or fixed income product where the term of the investment or financial exposure is greater than 12 months and a short-term Credit Rating is assigned where the period of the financial exposure or term of the debt security is less than 12 months.

[1] $25 million revolving loan facility. Please refer to Section 3.8.5 for information about the interests of the lender.

[2] Loan facilities from a related entity for the development of the Herston Quarter health precinct in Brisbane, Queensland. The facilities are sized to cover development costs of the carpark and public domain assets at Herston Quarter that are scheduled for practical completion in Q2FY21, and are expected to be up to $45 million.

PART A OFFER SPECIFIC PROSPECTUS – 19

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

Australia Ratings assigns long-term ratings from ‘AAA’ to ‘C’. The ratings from ‘AA’ to ‘C’ may be modified by the addition of a plus or minus sign to show relative standing within the major rating categories. Australia Ratings’ rating scale is set out below:

High ‘AAA’, ‘AA’, ‘A’ ‘a-1’, ‘a-2’
Intermediate ‘BBB’, ‘BB’ ‘a-3’
Low ‘B’, ‘CCC’, ‘CC’, ‘C’ ‘b’, ‘c’

3.6.3 Product Complexity Indicators

A Product Complexity Indicator is a colour coded indicator that helps differentiate debt securities which may have similar credit attributes by highlighting to potential investors the nature of the security in terms of complexity or non-standard features that could give rise to unanticipated variability or change in the returns from the investment.

Australia Ratings assigns Product Complexity Indicators ranging from ‘Green’ to ‘Red’.

3.6.4 Credit Rating assigned to the Bonds

Australia Ratings has assigned a long-term Credit Rating of BBB+ to the Bonds, subject to no material changes occurring to the transaction structure or documentation. According to Australia Ratings, a Credit Rating of BBB+ represents a moderate degree of creditworthiness with adequate credit attributes and a good capacity to meet financial obligations in a timely manner. Credit Ratings are statements of opinion, not statements of fact or recommendations to buy or hold securities. Credit Ratings may be changed, withdrawn or suspended at any time.

3.6.5 Product Complexity Indicator assigned to the Bonds

Australia Ratings has assigned a ‘Green’ Product Complexity Indicator to the Bonds, subject to no material changes occurring to the transaction structure or documentation.

According to Australia Ratings, a ‘Green’ Product Complexity Indicator represents a simple financial product and reflects that the terms of the Bonds are simple and straightforward for a retail investor to understand.

Product Complexity Indicators are statements of opinion, not statements of fact or recommendations to buy or hold securities.

Product Complexity Indicators may be changed, withdrawn or suspended at any time.

3.6.6 Australia Ratings’ disclaimer

Australia Ratings has made every effort to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the Credit Rating and Product Complexity Indicator as disclosed in this Offer Specific Prospectus. The Credit Rating and Product Complexity Indicator assigned are based on information provided to Australia Ratings or which was obtained from sources which it believed to be accurate and reliable at the time of the assignment of the rating. Australia Ratings does not guarantee the completeness and accuracy of the rating and it is possible that subsequent material events or information may come to light after the publication of the Credit Rating which are not known to Australia Ratings and which may have a material impact on the Credit Rating assigned.

Information in this Section 3.6 has been supplied by Australia Ratings. To the extent permitted by law, Australian Unity takes no responsibility for this information.

3.7 Key risks update

A detailed outline of risks relating to the Bonds and Australian Unity Group’s business is contained in Section 4 (“Risks”) of the Base Prospectus. You should read the Base Prospectus in full before deciding whether to invest in the Bonds.

In addition to the risks described in Section 4 of the Base Prospectus, investors should consider the following risks.

PART A OFFER SPECIFIC PROSPECTUS – 20

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

3.7.1 Additional risk disclosure in relation to Credit Rating

The Credit Rating of the Bonds is subject to revision, change or withdrawal at any time in accordance with Australia Ratings’ methodologies and procedures, and its Australian Financial Services Licence conditions. It may change as a result of, among other things, changes in the Australian Unity Group’s operating and financial performance, capital structure or for some other reason which might not be known to Australia Ratings at the date of this Offer Specific Prospectus. The Credit Rating issued in respect of the Bonds is a statement, an opinion or research dealing with the ability of Australian Unity to meet its obligations under the Bonds in a timely manner, and has been based on information provided to Australia Ratings.

A downgrade of the Credit Rating indicates a deterioration in Australia Ratings’ opinion of the creditworthiness of the Bonds. A deterioration of creditworthiness could make it more difficult for Australian Unity to source or seek external funding and this may have an adverse impact on the operating and financial performance of Australian Unity and its ability to pay Interest owed on the Bonds or the Redemption Amount due on the Bonds.

A change in or the withdrawal of the Credit Rating of the Bonds could also directly affect the market price and liquidity of the Bonds.

The Credit Rating also may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to the Bonds, market and additional factors disclosed in Section 4 of the Base Prospectus, and other factors that may affect the actual value or trading value of the Bonds or Australian Unity’s financial position. The Credit Rating is not a “market” rating, nor is it a recommendation to buy, hold or sell securities (including the Bonds), in as much as it does not comment as to market price or suitability for a particular investor. Additional information on Credit Ratings can be found in Section 3.6.

Section 3 Offer specific information you should consider

3.8.4 Cornerstone investor fees

Certain Institutional Investors have, prior to the lodgement of this Offer Specific Prospectus, committed to the Arrangers to apply for Bonds on the same terms as all other investors. The Arrangers will pay these Institutional Investors (but not any other investors that subsequently give commitments to invest under the Bookbuild) 0.50 percent of the amount they commit to, which is then allocated to them. This fee is in addition to any other amounts payable in connection with the Offer.

3.8.5 Joint Lead Manager interests

The Joint Lead Managers and their respective affiliates (the “JLM Groups”) are involved in a wide range of financial services and businesses including securities trading and brokerage activities and providing commercial and investment banking, investment management, corporate finance, credit and derivative, trading and research products and services, out of which conflicting interests or duties may arise. In the ordinary course of these activities, each JLM Group may at any time hold long or short positions, and may trade or otherwise effect transactions, for its own account or the accounts of customers, in debt or equity securities or senior loans of any member of the Australian Unity Group or any other party that may be involved in the Offer.

In particular, it should be noted that each of National Australia Bank Limited and ANZ Securities Limited (each a Joint Lead Manager) is also a lender (or a subsidiary of a lender) to members of the Australian Unity Group and has provided various facilities and other financial accommodation to members of the Australian Unity Group with maturities falling prior to the maturity dates of both the Series C Australian Unity Bonds and the Series D Australian Unity Bonds being offered under this Prospectus and as such its interests may conflict with the interests of the holders of Bonds.

3.8.6 Trustee’s liability

  • (a) has not made any statement or purported to make any statement in the Offer Documents or any statement on which a statement in the Offer Documents is based, other than as specified below in this Section 3.8.6;

The obligation to Redeem Bonds in accordance with their Terms is a direct obligation of Australian Unity. Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, employees, officers, affiliates, agents, advisers, intermediaries, related body corporate or any other entity guarantees the Redemption of or prepayment of any principal under Bonds.

Section 4 How to apply

4.3 Reinvestment Offer

AYUHB are unsecured and unsubordinated debt securities which were issued by Australian Unity in 2015. AYUHB trade on ASX under the code ”AYUHB”.

(a) Eligibility to participate in the Reinvestment Offer

You are an “Eligible AYUHB Holder” and eligible to participate in the Reinvestment Offer if:

  • you were a registered holder of AYUHB as at 7:00pm on 5 September 2019 (the “Reinvestment Record Date”);

  • you are shown on the register of holders of AYUHB as having an address in Australia (or another jurisdiction to which Australian Unity determines to extend the Reinvestment Offer); and

  • Australian Unity is satisfied that you are not in the United States or a US person, or acting as a nominee for, or for the account or benefit of, a US person, and are not otherwise prevented from receiving the Offer under the laws of any jurisdiction.

(b) What is the Reinvestment Offer?

Under the Reinvestment Offer, Eligible AYUHB Holders can apply to have some or all of their AYUHB purchased by Australian Unity with a portion of the proceeds received applied directly to the subscription of an equivalent number of Bonds.

AYUHB which are not sold to Australian Unity under the Reinvestment Offer will remain on issue (subject to their terms) until the scheduled maturity date of 15 December 2020.

The Reinvestment Offer is not a simple rollover into a similar investment. AYUHB and the Bonds, while having a number of similar features, have different benefits and risks, which must be evaluated independently (see section (e) below). The key differences include the following:

  • The current margin for AYUHB is 2.80 percent per annum. As a consequence of the change in market conditions since 2015 when AYUHB were issued, the Margin for the Series C Australian Unity Bonds (being 2.00 percent per annum) and the Margin for the Series D Australian Unity Bonds (being 2.15 percent per annum) are less than the margin for AYUHB.

  • The Maturity Date for the Series C Australian Unity Bonds is 15 December 2024 and the Maturity Date for Series D Australian Unity Bonds is 15 December 2026. The maturity date for the AYUHB is 15 December 2020.

Eligible AYUHB Holders who participate in the Reinvestment Offer will sell each relevant AYUHB to Australian Unity for $100 plus the “Accrued Interest Amount” and the “Further Amount”.

The “Accrued Interest Amount” is payable as compensation for the interest the holder would have received in respect of the AYUHB sold under the Reinvestment Offer for 14 October 2019 (the “Stub Day”) on the basis of the market rate applicable to AYUHB on the Stub Day plus a margin of 2.80 percent per annum for the Stub Day. The participating AYUHB holder will also receive the scheduled interest payment on 14 October 2019.

The “Further Amount” is payable as compensation in respect of the AYUHB sold under the Reinvestment Offer for the difference in margin between the AYUHB and the Bonds for the period from the Issue Date to the AYUHB maturity date. Based on the Margins for the Series C Australian Unity Bonds and Series D Australian Unity Bonds of 2.00 percent per annum and 2.15 percent per annum respectively, and assuming that the Issue Date for the Bonds is 15 October 2019, the Further Amount for each Series of Bonds will be:

  • Series C Australian Unity Bonds: $0.9359 per AYUHB; and

  • Series D Australian Unity Bonds: $0.7604 per AYUHB.

$100 of the proceeds of the sale of an AYUHB to Australian Unity will be applied to fund the subscription for a Bond and the participating Eligible AYUHB Holder will receive an amount per AYUHB sold equal to the sum of the Accrued Interest Amount and the Further Amount.

online Reinvestment Offer Application Form, specifying the number of
Series C Australian Unity Bonds and/or Series D Australian Unity Bonds
you would like to apply for. Please refer to Section 4.2 for further
information on how to apply for Bonds under the Reinvestment Offer.
If on the Closing Date of the Reinvestment Offer you hold a greater or
lesser number of AYUHB than shown on your personalised Reinvestment
Offer Application Form you will be taken to have applied to sell to
Australian Unity the lower of the number of AYUHB specifed on your
personalised Reinvestment Offer Application Form and the number of
AYUHB registered in your name on the Closing Date of the Reinvestment
Offer which is expected to be 8 October 2019.
In addition to participating in the Reinvestment Offer, an Eligible AYUHB
Holder wishing to increase their investment in Australian Unity may
apply for Series D Australian Unity Bonds under the Member Offer
(if an Eligible Member) or the Broker Firm Offer (if a client of a Syndicate
Broker).
Option 2 – Sell your AYUHB You may choose to sell or dispose of your AYUHB on market (in which
on market case, you may have to pay brokerage) at the prevailing market price,
which may be higher or lower than the price you would receive if you
were to sell all your AYUHB to Australian Unity through the
Reinvestment Offer, and use part of the proceeds to fund a subscription
of Bonds. To choose this option, you should contact your broker.
If you sell your AYUHB on market and use the proceeds to apply for
Bonds, you will need to apply under the Member Offer or Broker Firm
Offer (if eligible to do so) and there is a risk you may not receive the level
of allocation you may have through participation in the Reinvestment
Offer. You will also only be able to apply for Series D Australian Unity
Bonds under the Member Offer and Broker Firm Offer.
The market price of AYUHB is subject to change from time to time. As at
the close of trading on 13 September 2019, the market price per AYUHB
was $102.00. Up-to-date information about the market price of AYUHB
can be obtained from asx.com.au (ASX code ”AYUHB”).
If you sell your AYUHB on market you will not receive the Accrued
Interest Amount or the Further Amount. Your ability to sell and the price
at which you sell your AYUHB depends on the liquidity of the market
and the trading price at that time.

Option 3 – Take no action You are not required to participate in the Reinvestment Offer, or to sell
your AYUHB on market and as such, you are not required to take any
action. Should you take no action, you will continue to hold your AYUHB
and will receive quarterly interest payments until the scheduled maturity
date of 15 December 2020, or such earlier date on which Australian Unity
may redeem your AYUHB (in accordance with the terms of AYUHB).
If less than 10% of the aggregate face value of AYUHB remains on issue,
Australian Unity is likely to redeem all (but not some) of the AYUHB.
Refer to Section 3.5 for further information.

(d) Ineligible holders of AYUHB

If you are a holder of AYUHB with a registered address outside Australia on the Reinvestment Record Date then you are ineligible to participate in the Reinvestment Offer. In these circumstances, you are limited to Options 2 or 3 in the table in section (c) above.

(f) Comparison of Series C Australian Unity Bonds and Series D Australian Unity Bonds

There are important differences between Series C Australian Unity Bonds and Series D Australian Unity Bonds. Eligible AYUHB Holders who are considering participating in the Reinvestment Offer should note these differences.

In particular:

  • The Maturity Date for the Series C Australian Unity Bonds is 15 December 2024 and the Maturity Date for Series D Australian Unity Bonds is 15 December 2026; and

  • the Margin for the Series C Australian Unity Bonds is 2.00 percent per annum and the Margin for the Series D Australian Unity Bonds is 2.15 percent per annum.

The Margin applicable to the Series D Australian Unity Bonds is higher than the Margin applicable to the Series C Australian Unity Bonds, to reflect the longer term to maturity in respect of the Series D Australian Unity Bonds.

(g) Risks associated with participating in the Reinvestment Offer

Once you apply to participate in the Reinvestment Offer, you will not be able to sell your AYUHB on market. If you apply to participate in the Reinvestment Offer, it is your responsibility to ensure that you do not sell or dispose of any of those AYUHB the subject of your Application, other than as part of the Reinvestment Offer.

If you apply to participate in the Reinvestment Offer you are taken to agree to a holding lock being placed on the AYUHB you have elected to sell, pending completion of the Reinvestment Offer—but it is your obligation to ensure that you do not sell or transfer those AYUHB. If you do, the number of Bonds you may be allocated will be reduced to the extent the required number of AYUHB are not available on the Closing Date for the Reinvestment Offer.

Once you have submitted an Application Form under the Reinvestment Offer, you will not be able to successfully deal with those AYUHB unless the holding lock which will be placed on those AYUHB is released (which will only occur if the Offer does not proceed or your Application is not accepted in full or in part).

If you elect to participate in the Reinvestment Offer but the Offer (including the Reinvestment Offer) does not proceed or your Application is not accepted in full or in part, those AYUHB that you elected to sell to Australian Unity that were not purchased by Australian Unity will be released from the holding lock as soon as practicable. Once released, you may sell your AYUHB on ASX at the prevailing market price subject to the liquidity of that market.

AYUHB not sold to Australian Unity under the Reinvestment Offer (and not sold on the ASX) will remain outstanding until redeemed by Australian Unity in December 2020 (unless redeemed early in accordance with the terms of the AYUHB). Where there is less than 10 percent of the aggregate face value of the AYUHB remaining on issue, Australian Unity intends to exercise its rights under the Clean Up Condition in accordance with the AYUHB Base Terms. Please refer to Section 3.5 for further information.

(h) Brokerage and stamp duty

No brokerage or stamp duty is payable on the sale of your AYUHB to Australian Unity under the Reinvestment Offer or on your Application for Bonds. AYUHB holders who choose to sell their AYUHB on market may be required to pay any applicable brokerage.

4.4 Minimum application

The amount you have to pay for each Bond is $100. The minimum application size for Applicants under the Institutional Offer and Broker Firm Offer is 50 Bonds ($5,000). The minimum application size for Applicants under the Member Offer is 20 Bonds ($2,000).

4.5 No brokerage or stamp duty

You do not have to pay brokerage or stamp duty on your Application for Bonds. However, you may have to pay brokerage (and applicable GST) on any subsequent purchases or sales of Bonds on the ASX.

Section 4 How to apply

4.6 Exposure period

The Corporations Act prohibited Australian Unity from processing Applications to subscribe for Bonds under the Offer Documents in the seven day period after the lodgement date of the Original Offer Specific Prospectus (“Exposure Period”).

That period was to enable the Original Offer Specific Prospectus (and the Base Prospectus) to be examined by market participants prior to the raising of funds. Applications received during the Exposure Period were not processed until after the expiry of that period. No preference will be conferred on Applications received during the Exposure Period.

4.7 Allocation policy and refunds

Bookbuilds

The Arrangers have conducted Bookbuilds to determine the Margins and firm Allocations of each Series of Bonds to Bookbuild participants. The Bookbuilds were conducted on 13 September 2019 in accordance with the terms and conditions agreed by Australian Unity and the Joint Lead Managers. As part of the Bookbuilds, certain Institutional Investors and Syndicate Brokers were invited to lodge bids for Bonds. On the basis of those bids, Australian Unity, in consultation with the Arrangers, has determined a Margin of 2.00 percent per annum for Series C Australian Unity Bonds and 2.15 percent per annum for Series D Australian Unity Bonds, and the firm Allocations of Bonds to Syndicate Brokers and Institutional Investors. A total of approximately $103.7 million of Series C Australian Unity Bonds and $196.3 million Series D Australian Unity Bonds were allocated under the Bookbuilds. Bonds allocated under the Bookbuilds will be issued under this Offer Specific Prospectus.

Member Offer

Australian Unity will endeavour to provide Applicants under the Member Offer with an allocation of Series D Australian Unity Bonds however Australian Unity does not guarantee any minimum allocation and the extent of any allocation will ultimately depend on the total level of Applications under the Offer and the level of applications under the Reinvestment Offer.

Australian Unity has absolute discretion to determine the method and extent of the allocation to Applicants under the Member Offer.

In particular, Australian Unity reserves the right (at its discretion) to:

  • allocate to any Eligible Member all Series D Australian Unity Bonds for which they have applied; or

  • allocate to any Eligible Member a lesser number of Series D Australian Unity Bonds for which they have applied, or none at all.

Broker Firm Offer

If you have applied under the Broker Firm Offer, your Syndicate Broker is responsible for determining your allocation from their Broker Firm Allocation. Australian Unity takes no responsibility for any allocation, scale-back or rejection that is decided by your Syndicate Broker.

Institutional Offer

Allocations to Institutional Investors have been determined by Australian Unity in consultation with the Joint Lead Managers following the Bookbuild.

Reinvestment Offer

Applications under the Reinvestment Offer will be treated with priority when received, but may be limited by the overall size of the Offer, the size of each Series of Bonds and any earlier Allocations under the Bookbuild.

Refunds

Until the Bonds are issued, Australian Unity will hold the Application Monies in a trust account. The account will be established and kept solely for the purpose of depositing Application Monies and dealing with those funds.

If you are not allocated any Bonds or less than the number of Bonds you applied for, you will receive a refund cheque as soon as practicable after the Closing Date. No interest will be payable on Application Monies which are refunded. Any interest earned in the trust will be retained by Australian Unity.

PART A OFFER SPECIFIC PROSPECTUS – 33

Section 4 How to apply

4.8 Issue and quotation of Bonds

It is expected that the Bonds will be quoted on the ASX. Series C Australian Unity Bonds are expected to be quoted under the ASX code AYUHC and Series D Australian Unity Bonds are expected to be quoted under the ASX code AYUHD. If ASX does not grant permission for the Bonds to be quoted by the Issue Date, the Bonds will not be Issued and all Application Monies will be refunded (without interest) as soon as practicable.

4.9 Trading and Holding Statements

(a) Commencement of trading of Bonds on ASX

It is expected that the Bonds will begin trading on ASX on a normal settlement basis on 18 October 2019.

It is your responsibility to determine your holding of Bonds before trading to avoid the risk of selling Bonds you do not own. You should check your holding by asking your broker or by calling the Registrar.

(b) Holding Statements

Australian Unity will apply for the Bonds to participate in CHESS and, if accepted, no certificates will be issued. Instead, a Holding Statement will be mailed to Holders. If your holding of the Bonds changes, you will receive an updated Holding Statement.

(c) Provision of TFN and/or ABN

When your Holding Statement is mailed, you will also receive a welcome letter which details how to provide your TFN and/or ABN to the Registrar should you wish to do so (see Section 5.1.8 (“Provision of TFN and/or ABN”) of the Base Prospectus).

(d) Provision of bank account details for payments

Interest will be paid in Australian dollars by direct credit into nominated Australian financial institution accounts (excluding credit card accounts), for Holders with a registered address in Australia. For all other Holders, including Holders that have not nominated a bank account to receive direct credits, Interest will be paid by Australian dollar cheque. When your Holding Statement is mailed, you will also be mailed a welcome letter which details how to provide your bank account details to the Registrar for payments of Face Value and Interest.
