IOOF announces an unmarketable parcel share sale facility

IOOF Holdings Limited (ASX: IFL, OTC: IOOFY) (IOOF) is pleased to announce that it has established a share sale facility for the holders of unmarketable parcels of IOOF’s shares.

The Record Date for the purposes of establishing holders of unmarketable parcels has been set at close of trade on 5 August 2016 (Record Date). An unmarketable parcel of shares is a parcel of shares that has a market value of less than $500. As at the market close on 5 August 2016, an unmarketable parcel of shares is any shareholding of 54 ordinary shares or less (Unmarketable Parcel) based on the closing price of $9.21.

IOOF is offering this facility to assist shareholders of unmarketable parcels (determined as at the Record Date) with small holdings to dispose of their unmarketable parcel who might otherwise find it difficult to sell their shares due to the small size of their holding. The shares will be sold at market price for the relevant shares.

By facilitating the sale of unmarketable parcels IOOF expects to reduce the administrative costs associated with maintaining a large number of small shareholdings.

A summary of the key dates in relation to the Facility is as follows

Event Date
Unmarketable parcels Record Date 5 August 2016
Unmarketable parcels announcement to ASX 9 August 2016
Letters sent to shareholders holding unmarketable parcels
attaching the information pack
9 August 2016
Closing date for receipt of share retention form 21 September 2016

Attached is a copy of the letter and the share retention form which has today been sent to all shareholders holding an unmarketable parcel on the Record Date.

IOOF is offering this facility to assist holders of unmarketable parcels of shares to sell them at market value without brokerage costs. It will also reduce the expense to the company of maintaining a large number of shareholders with unmarketable parcels.

Unless you advise the IOOF share registry by 5.00pm (AEST) on 21 September 2016 that you want to retain your shares, your shares will be sold and you will be sent the sale proceeds.

The share sale facility is being operated in accordance with rule 85 of the Company’s constitution and the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) Listing Rule 15.13.

If you want to sell your shares under the facility - you need take no further action.

Your shares will be sold on your behalf by IOOF after 21 September 2016. You will not need to appoint a broker or pay the brokerage and handling costs associated with the sale of shares under the facility. Any tax consequences from the sale of your shares will be your responsibility.

If you want to retain your shares - you must complete and return the enclosed Share Retention Form to Boardroom Pty Limited, GPO Box 3993, Sydney, NSW 2001, Australia by 5.00pm (AEST) on 21 September 2016.

If you do not return the Share Retention Form by the Closing Date, your shares will be sold.

If you wish to increase your shareholding to a marketable parcel, you should contact your broker.

If you have a number of holdings which you wish to consolidate, please contact the registry on 1300 737 760 (within Australia) or 61 2 9290 9600 (outside Australia).

4. WHAT ARE THE COSTS OF HAVING IOOF SHARES SOLD ON MY BEHALF?

There is no brokerage or other transaction costs payable by Small Shareholders whose shares are sold under the Small Shareholder Sale Facility. These costs will be paid by IOOF.

7. WHAT WILL I RECEIVE FOR SHARES SOLD UNDER THE SMALL SHAREHOLDER SALE FACILITY?

A cheque for your proceeds will be mailed to you within 21 days after completion of the Sale Period. Payment will be made in Australian dollars.

9. IF I BUY OR SELL SHARES, WILL I RETAIN MY HOLDING?

If you sell your shares, any balance remaining on the share register will be sold unless a Share Retention Form is received. If you purchase more shares and your registered holding is more than a marketable parcel by 5.00pm (AEST) on 21 September 2016 then your shares will not be sold. For a purchase to be an effective notification that you wish to retain your shares, any additional shares must be registered by 5.00pm (AEST) on 21 September 2016 under the same holder number (SRN or HIN) as set out in this letter.
