Despite the fact that 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 and CHESS will not maintain cum balances in these stapled securities within the system. As a result any transfer that occurs prior to record date will be effectively transferred on a “cum” basis.

Therefore, Participants must ensure that any transfer, including the priming of Broker Entrepot Accounts, is conducted in accordance with the basis of quote. For example, a transfer in relation to a transaction conducted on an ex-basis should ordinarily only occur post record date.

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 provide a “cum” market with respect to trading in the Group’s stapled securities. Persons who trade the Group’s stapled securities after the commencement of the trading halt on Thursday, 18 June 2009 will not be entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
