Insider Trading
Legal Issues
The Corporations Act 2001 specifically deals with prohibited conduct by persons in possession of inside information. The following is a summary only of those provisions.
Inside information is information that is not generally available and which a reasonable person would expect to have a material effect on the price or value of shares, if it were generally available,
If a person (“the insider”) possesses inside information and the insider knows, or ought reasonably to know, that it is inside information , then the insider must not, and must not procure another person to, subscribe for, buy or sell the shares, or agree to do so, and the insider must not communicate any information to another person who the insider knows or ought to know might do this.
In simple terms, the insider must not trade, and must not give information to someone who might.
Policy
- No one may buy, sell or otherwise trade in the Company’s shares if they possess material price sensitive information which is not in the public domain.
Consequences of a Breach of the Insider Trading Rules
Breach of the insider trading prohibition could result in exposure to criminal and civil liability. Breach of the insider trading laws or this policy will also be regarded by DUL as serious misconduct which may lead to disciplinary action or dismissal.
Additional restrictions on trading by Directors and Executives
In addition to the general trading restrictions set out in this policy, additional restrictions on trading in DUL Securities apply to Directors, Executives and their Associates.
Blackout Periods
Directors and Executives of DUL may not trade in DUL Securities during the Blackout Periods, which are the periods in each year:
-
between July 1 and one trading day following the announcement of the full year results; and
-
between January 1 and one trading day following the announcement of the half year results.
Trading within Blackout Periods may be permitted only with prior written approval of the Chairman where there are exceptional circumstances, such as severe financial hardship, and the Director or Executive is not prohibited from trading by the insider trading rules. Trading approved in this manner must occur within 7 days of approval.
Clearance on trading outside Blackout Periods
In any of the circumstances where trading is permitted under this policy, a Director or an Executive must notify the Company Secretary of an intention to deal in the Company’s securities either by themselves or by their Associates and confirm that they do not hold insider information. The trading must occur within seven days after the Company Secretary acknowledges receipt of the notice.
Details of the trade must be promptly notified to the Company Secretary afterwards.
Other legal requirements
Directors must also comply with the DUL Constitution and Board Charter, as well as all requirements of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) and the Listing Rules of the Australian Securities Exchange.
