  • (c) If a Unitholder does not pay an Instalment on the due date, the Trustee must serve the Unitholder with a notice not later than 7 days after the due date containing:

  • (1) a demand for payment of all Instalments due and payable in respect of the Partly Paid Units and any interest payable;

  • (d) If payment in full is not received by the due date specified in the notice issued under clause 3.8(c), the Partly Paid Unit is forfeited and the Trustee may offer the Forfeited Unit for sale.

  • (e) If any Attached Security is forfeited, the Trustee may forfeit the Unit to which it is Stapled.

4 Issue of Options and Units

4.2 Application for Units or Options

A person who wishes to subscribe for Units or Options must:

  • (b) lodge or make the Application at the place or address and in the manner determined by the Trustee; and

page 18

  • (1) an effective transfer of the title to the property in favour of the Trustee; and

  • (2) a valuation acceptable to the Trustee stating the current market value of the property or other statement of its current market value.

  • (c) Unless the applicant has paid all amounts payable in respect of the issue of Units or the transfer of property (if any) to the Trustee prior to the Trustee accepting the Application, the Trustee must deduct those amounts before determining the number of Units to be issued under clause 4.1.

  • (d)

If Units or Options are issued and:

  • (1) the Trustee has not received the Application Moneys in accordance with the Terms of Issue; or

  • (2) any payment for Units or Options is not cleared or property is not effectively transferred to the Trustee,

the Units or Options are void as from their date of issue or such other date as the Trustee determines if the Trustee has not otherwise received payment of an amount equal to the Application Moneys for the Units or Options.

  • (2) the date by which the Application Moneys would need to be repaid under the Corporations Act.

Until the Trustee decides to proceed to the allotment of Units in accordance with this part 4, it holds such Application Moneys in accordance with the Corporations Act and the Trustee must comply with all obligations imposed on it in the same manner as it would be required to do if it were a company offering shares for subscription or purchase. Where Application Moneys are repayable under section 1031(1) of the Corporations Act, no interest is payable on that money and an interest rate of nil is hereby specified for the purpose of section 1031(2) of the Corporations Act.

Notwithstanding clauses 4.2 and 4.3, the Trustee may determine that the cash or property to be included with an Application is to be vested in the trustee of a trust in which the Trustee holds (directly or indirectly) all or part of the beneficial interest, rather than the Trustee itself.

  • (d) The Trustee must not issue Units unless satisfied that each of those Units will be Stapled to the Corresponding Number of each Attached Security to form a Stapled Security.

  • (e) The Trustee and the Unitholders must neither do any act, matter or thing nor refrain from doing any act, matter or thing if to do so or refrain from doing so (as the case may be) would result directly or indirectly in any Unit no longer being a component of a Stapled Security.
