Settlement issues
Despite the fact that the stapled securities are trading “ex entitlement” on ITS, CHESS will not recognise for settlement purposes the “ex entitlement” or the “cum entitlement” tag on CHESS messages. As a result, CHESS will not maintain cum balances in these stapled securities within the system.
In addition, CHESS will not perform any automatic diary adjustments to “cum entitlement” settlement obligations outstanding as at the record date.
Trading issues
ASX will not price a “cum” market with respect to trading in the Group’s stapled securities. Persons who acquire the Group’s stapled securities after the commencement of the trading halt on Tuesday, 21 April 2009 are not entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
