BUNNINGS PROPERTY MANAGEMENT LIMITED
ABN 26 082 856 424 Responsible Entity for the Bunnings Warehouse Property Trust Australian Financial Services Licence No. 247830
7 July 2008
The Manager Australian Securities Exchange Limited Level 8, Exchange Plaza 2 The Esplanade PERTH WA 6000
Dear Sir.
AMENDMENTS TO BUNNINGS WAREHOUSE PROPERTY TRUST CONSTITUTION
The directors of Bunnings Property Management Limited, as responsible entity of the Bunnings Warehouse Property Trust (the "Trust"), have resolved to make certain amendments to the Trust's Constitution regarding the basis for assessing the market price of units in the Trust to be issued under the Distribution Reinvestment Plan ("DRP").
The changes do not affect the basis on which the units to be issued under the DRP for the upcoming distribution for the year ended 30 June 2008, will be calculated as the pricing period under the DRP terms and conditions remains unchanged. In this regard, the changes to the Constitution are to align the Constitution with the existing approach under the DRP terms and conditions.
The changes provide that the pricing period for calculating the volume weighted average trading price should run for the 10 business days immediately following the record date for the relevant distribution. This approach corresponds with the methodology expressed in the Trust's current DRP terms and conditions and reflects the practice recommended by the Australian Securities and Investments Commission and the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority in the Unit Pricing Guide to Good Practice in respect of the appropriate period for assessing unit pricing.
The amendments to the Constitution are shown in the enclosed copy of the supplemental deed. In summary, the changes relate to:
- clause 1.1: insertion of the definition of DRP Market Price;
- clause 1.4: amended to allow for forward pricing of units issued pursuant to a DRP; $\bullet$
- clause 5.6: consequential amendments relating to the changes in clauses 1.1 and 1.4; and $\bullet$
- clause 5.4 amended to reflect plain English drafting principles. $\bullet$
The amendments were made by deed by the responsible entity in accordance with the Constitution and Corporations Act. The Constitution, including the amendments remains consistent with the Listing Rules.
Yours sincerely,
GRANT GERNHOEFER GENERAL MANAGER
