Explanatory Memorandum
Resolution 1 – Ratification of Institutional Placement
On 4 November 2019, CLW announced that it would undertake an equity raising comprising a fully underwritten institutional placement to certain institutional, professional and other wholesale investors to raise approximately $120 million (the “ Institutional Placement ”) and a 1-for-17 accelerated non-renounceable entitlement offer to raise approximately $122 million (“ Entitlement Offer ”). Stapled Securities were offered under the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer at the same issue price of $5.50 per Stapled Security. New securities issued under the Institutional Placement and the Entitlement Offer will rank equally with existing CLW Stapled Securities from their date of issue and will be entitled to the full distribution for the three months ending 31 December 2019.
On 5 November 2019, CLW announced the successful completion of the Institutional Placement which raised gross proceeds of approximately $120 million by way of the issue of 21,818,182 fully paid Stapled Securities at $5.50 per Stapled Security. The Stapled Securities were issued pursuant to CLW’s 15% capacity under Listing Rule 7.1. The proceeds of the Institutional Placement were used to partially fund the acquisitions as announced to the ASX on Monday, 4 November 2019.
Under Listing Rule 7.1, subject to certain exceptions, a listed entity may not issue equity securities in any 12 month period which exceed 15% of the number of securities of the entity on issue at the beginning of the 12 month period, except with the prior approval by the security holders of the entity of the precise terms and conditions of the proposed issue.
Under Listing Rule 7.4, an issue of securities made without security holder approval under Listing Rule 7.1
is treated as having been made with approval for the purposes of that Listing Rule 7.1, if the issue did not breach Listing Rule 7.1 and the holders of the securities subsequently approve the issue. An issue so approved is then not counted towards the calculation of the use of the 15% limit under Listing Rule 7.1.
Resolution 1 seeks the ratification by Securityholders of the issue of the 21,818,182 Stapled Securities pursuant to the Institutional Placement. The outcome of this resolution will have no effect on the issue of the 21,818,182 Stapled Securities to certain institutional, professional and other wholesale investors as these have already been issued within CLW’s annual 15% limit prescribed by Listing Rule 7.1.
The Institutional Placement undertaken on 4 November 2019 reduced CLW’s capacity to issue Stapled Securities without Securityholder approval or an exemption from Listing Rule 7.1 applying. Accordingly, Securityholders are being requested to ratify the issue of Stapled Securities as described above under Listing Rule 7.4. This will ensure that CLW has the maximum flexibility to raise capital going forward. CLW has no current plans to raise further capital (although it may do so in the future).
For the purposes of Listing Rule 7.5, details of the Institutional Placement are as set out below:
- (i) Number of securities issued:
21,818,182 fully paid ordinary Stapled Securities
-
(ii) Price at which securities were issued:
-
$5.50 per Stapled Security
-
(iii) The terms of the securities:
The 21,818,182 Stapled Securities issued under the
Charter Hall Long WALE REIT
Institutional Placement rank equally in all respects with existing issued fully paid Stapled Securities of CLW quoted on ASX, from their issue on 18 November 2019 and subsequent quotation by the ASX.
- (iv) The name of the allottees:
The Stapled Securities were issued to certain institutional, professional and other wholesale investors who were identified by J.P. Morgan Securities Australia Limited and UBS AG, Australia Branch, the underwriters of the Institutional Placement.
- (v) Use (or intended use) of funds raised:
The proceeds of the Institutional Placement were used to partially fund the acquisitions as announced to the ASX on 4 November 2019.
If Resolution 1 is approved, Securityholders will ratify the issue of Stapled Securities under the Institutional Placement and preserve CLW’s capacity to issue Stapled Securities within its annual 15% limit without counting the 21,818,182 Stapled Securities the subject of this Resolution 1 in the next 12 months under Listing Rule 7.1, if required.
Directors’ recommendation
The Directors unanimously recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of this resolution.
