Dear Securityholder

I am pleased to invite you to the 2020 Annual General and General Meetings of Mirvac (Meetings).

The health and safety of our Securityholders, our employees, their families, and the broader community, is paramount.

As a Securityholder, you will be able to participate in the Meetings, including voting and asking questions either online or via telephone. The virtual Meetings will provide opportunities for you to participate in the Meetings, despite the current restrictions on travel and gatherings.

The Meetings will be managed as set out below and also detailed in the Notice of Meetings:

  • as already mentioned, for the health and safety of all our Securityholders, the Meetings will be held virtually;

06 MIRVAC GROUP NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL AND GENERAL MEETINGS 2020

ENTITLEMENT TO VOTE

Who can vote?

Individual Securityholders may vote by direct vote prior to the Meetings, via the online platform during the Meetings, by telephone on the day of the Meetings between the conclusion of the Meetings and the closure of voting or by proxy.

A corporate Securityholder may vote by proxy or through an individual who has been appointed as the corporate Securityholder’s representative.

In accordance with the Corporations Regulations 2001 (Cth), the Directors of Mirvac have determined that the stapled securities on issue as at 7.00pm (AEDT) on Tuesday, 17 November 2020 will be taken, for the purposes of the Meetings, to be held by the persons who held them at that time. This means that any Securityholder registered at 7.00pm (AEDT) on Tuesday, 17 November 2020 is entitled to attend and vote at the Meetings.

How is the vote carried out?

Voting intentions of the Chair

If a Securityholder appoints the Chair as the Securityholder’s proxy and does not specify how the Chair is to vote on an item of business, the Chair intends to vote in favour of that item on a poll (subject to the other provisions of this Notice, including the voting exclusions set out in the Explanatory Notes).

Ordinary and special resolutions

An ordinary resolution is passed if more than 50% of the votes cast by or on behalf of Securityholders entitled to vote on the resolution are in favour of the resolution.

A special resolution is passed if at least 75% of the votes cast by or on behalf of Securityholders entitled to vote on the resolution are in favour of the resolution.

Resolutions 1 to 4 included in this Notice are ordinary resolutions. Resolution 5 is a special resolution.

Voting on all the resolutions will be conducted by way of a poll.

How many votes does each Securityholder have?

Voting on the resolutions will be decided on a poll. On a poll each Securityholder has:

  • in the case of a resolution of ML, one vote for each share held in ML; and

  • in the case of a resolution of MPT, one vote for each whole $1.00 of unit value held in MPT.

A Securityholder does not have to exercise all of their votes on their stapled securities in the same way and not all votes need to be cast.

A proxy may decide whether or not to vote on any item of business or other motion at the Meetings, except where the proxy is required by law or the Constitutions of ML or MPT to vote or abstain from voting in their capacity as proxy. If the proxy’s appointment directs the proxy how to vote on an item of business, the proxy may vote on that item only in accordance with the direction. If the proxy’s appointment does not direct the proxy how to vote on an item of business or any other motion at the Meetings, the proxy may vote as he or she thinks fit on that item or motion. If an appointment of a proxy specifies the way the proxy is to vote on a particular resolution at the Meetings and the appointed proxy does not attend the Meetings or does not vote on a poll on the resolution, then the Chair will be taken to have been appointed as the proxy of the relevant Securityholder in respect of the Meetings or the poll on that resolution, as applicable.

A Securityholder who is entitled to cast two or more votes may appoint two proxies and may specify the proportion or number of votes each proxy is appointed to exercise. If the appointment does not specify the proportion or number of the Securityholder’s voting rights, each proxy may exercise half of the Securityholder’s votes. Fractions will be disregarded.

ITEM 4 — PARTICIPATION BY THE CEO & MANAGING DIRECTOR IN THE LONG TERM PERFORMANCE (“LTP”) PLAN

This resolution is being put to Securityholders for the purpose of approving the participation by Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz (CEO & Managing Director of Mirvac) in Mirvac’s LTP Plan. Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz commenced as CEO & Managing Director on 5 November 2012.

Background

The Board believes that the offer of performance rights under the LTP Plan is an important part of Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz’s overall remuneration package. The performance rights are designed to provide a long-term incentive to pursue the growth and success of Mirvac. The LTP Plan is focused on individuals whose roles and contributions are identified as critical to the continued growth and success of the Group over the next three years.

Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz’s current total remuneration package comprises:

  • a) fixed remuneration of $1,500,000 (which has not been increased since commencing as CEO & Managing Director in 2012);

  • b) short-term incentive (STI) target of 80% of fixed remuneration; and

c) long-term incentive opportunity of 150% of fixed remuneration.

Further details of Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz’s remuneration arrangements are contained in the Remuneration Report in Mirvac’s 2020 Annual Report, from page 80.

COVID-19 considerations

Participation

The Board has considered whether it is appropriate to make a grant under the FY21 LTP Plan in the context of the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board’s view is that this grant remains an important component of remuneration to focus management on the achievement of long-term performance and is a key tool in aligning management to Securityholders.

EXPLANATORY NOTES ( CONTINUED )

Performance Period

The Board’s view is that, because of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, it is more appropriate for the Performance Period to commence after the 30 June 2020 results announcements by each company in the comparator group so that the market was fully informed of the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic at the start of the Performance Period.

Performance Hurdles

There are significant challenges associated with setting a Return on Invested Capital (“ROIC”) hurdle over the Performance Period given we are still, at the time of drafting this Notice of Meeting, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic and therefore the resulting impacts are unknown. As a result, the Board has decided that ROIC is not a suitable measure for the FY21 LTP Plan. Notwithstanding, ROIC remains a key metric for management.

After considering various alternatives and independent expert advice, as well as considering feedback from various stakeholders, the Board has decided to retain the relative Total Shareholder Return (“TSR”) measure as the single performance measure (that is, it will apply for 100 per cent of the award), in effect suspending the ROIC component for the upcoming award. The suspension of the ROIC component is specific to the FY21 LTP plan and does not necessarily indicate the Board’s preferred performance measures for future LTP awards. For the FY22 LTP plan, the Board will take into account the prevailing conditions at that time, noting the current preference is to revert to a mix of ROIC and relative TSR.

Participation in the LTP Plan

Under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.1, no director can acquire securities under an employee incentive scheme without Securityholder approval. Accordingly, approval is being sought for Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz to participate in the LTP Plan for the current financial year (2020/21).

If approved by Securityholders, the number of performance rights granted to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz would be determined by dividing her potential award under the LTP Plan of $2,250,000 by the grant price and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of performance rights. For this purpose, the grant price will be the average daily closing price on the ASX of a stapled security in Mirvac for the one-month period up to and including the AGM date, reduced by an estimated value (determined by an independent external consultant) in respect of dividends and distributions that may be paid on a stapled security in Mirvac during the Performance Period. The performance rights that may be granted to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz will be offered for nil cost to her.

Performance Period

For the performance rights to be granted to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz for the 2020/21 financial year, the performance period will begin on 1 October 2020 and end on 30 June 2023 (“Performance Period”).

Performance rights granted under the LTP Plan will generally only vest and be converted into stapled securities where any applicable performance conditions have been satisfied within the Performance Period, with the Board having overarching discretion to ensure vesting outcomes are appropriately aligned to performance.

Terms of performance rights

On grant, each performance right would give the holder an entitlement to acquire one stapled security in the Group subject to satisfaction of any applicable performance conditions. Unvested performance rights carry no voting rights and no entitlements to participate in any dividends or distributions.

Participants are prohibited from dealing in (which includes selling, transferring and hedging) their unvested performance rights, unless the Board determines otherwise or in the event of death or bankruptcy.

On vesting, a performance right will automatically convert into a stapled security. At the Board’s discretion, entitlements to stapled securities on vesting of the performance rights will be satisfied by either an allotment of new stapled securities or by purchase on market of existing stapled securities.

Performance hurdle

Relative TSR performance hurdle

The TSR performance of Mirvac will be compared over the Performance Period with the TSR performance of each of the entities within the S&P/ASX 200 A-REIT Index, as constituted at the commencement of the Performance Period (“Comparator Group”).

As at 1 July 2020, the entities comprising the Comparator Group are set out below. This is indicative only and the actual Comparator Group applicable to this award will be updated to reflect the constituents of the S&P/ASX 200 A-REIT Index at the commencement of the Performance Period.

EXPLANATORY NOTES ( CONTINUED )

The Board has the discretion to adjust the Comparator Group to take into account events including takeovers, mergers, delistings or demergers that might occur during the Performance Period.

Broadly, TSR measures the return to a securityholder over the Performance Period in terms of changes in the market value of the securities plus the reinvested value of any dividends or distributions paid on the securities.

  • At the end of the Performance Period, the growth in Mirvac’s TSR over the Performance Period will be compared with the growth in TSR over the same period of the Comparator Group and Mirvac’s relative ranking will be determined. Unless the Board determines otherwise, the security price used to calculate the TSR growth of a company for the Performance Period will be measured as follows:

  • the opening security price will be the average adjusted closing price of a security in that company on the ASX for the three-month period prior to but not including the first day of the Performance Period; and

  • the closing security price will be the average adjusted closing price of a security in that company on the ASX for the three-month period up to and including the last day of the Performance Period.

  • The percentage of the TSR performance rights which vest, if any, will be determined by the Board by reference to the percentile ranking achieved by Mirvac over the Performance Period compared to the Comparator Group as follows:

Group as follows:
TSR growth – percentile ranking TSR performance rights that vest (%)
75th percentile and above 100%
Between 50th to 75th percentile 50% plus an additional 2% for each
additional whole percentile above the
50th percentile
50th percentile 50%
Below 50th percentile Nil

Treatment on cessation of employment

If Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz ceases to be an employee of the Group before the end of the Performance Period, any unvested performance rights relating to the departing employee will be dealt with as outlined below:

Reason for cessation Treatment in respect of of employment unvested performance rights Resignation or termination by All unvested performance Mirvac (other than as set out below) rights lapse. Redundancy, retirement, disability/ The Board has overarching death, mutual agreement or agreed discretion to determine the amount transfer to an investment partner of any unvested performance rights that may be retained (subject to the original terms of the grant and the LTP Plan Rules).

The typical treatment is that the unvested performance rights will neither vest nor lapse, but the terms of the grant and the LTP Plan Rules will continue to apply (i.e. the unvested performance rights will be tested at the end of the Performance Period and may vest in accordance with the grant and the LTP Plan Rules).

Remuneration framework

The remuneration framework applying to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz’s current remuneration is set out on pages 74 to 77 in the Remuneration Report section of Mirvac’s 2020 Annual Report.

Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz has not had an increase to fixed remuneration or long-term incentives since she commenced as the CEO & Managing Director in 2012. Since commencement, there has been a single five per cent increase to the short-term incentive target in FY17.

Further information disclosed in accordance with ASX Listing Rule 10.15

Pursuant to approval by Securityholders at previous Annual General and General Meetings, performance rights were granted to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz in previous years under the LTP Plan, as follows, at nil cost to her:

Number of performance Number of performance
rights granted under rights which vested,
Year to: the LTP Plan securities issued
30 June 2013 1,137,300 415,114
30 June 2014 1,470,500 691,135
30 June 2015 1,461,000 730,500

30 June 2019 1,159,793 Unvested
30 June 2020 770,547 Unvested

Further details of these performance rights are set out in the Annual Report for the relevant reporting period. Details of any performance rights issued to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz under the LTP Plan will be published each year in the Annual Report and will note that approval for issue of those securities was obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14. No other Director or associate of any Director received stapled securities under the LTP Plan in the year to 30 June 2020.

No other Director or associate of any Director is entitled to participate in, and no loans will be provided under, the LTP Plan in the current year. No additional Director who becomes entitled to participate in the LTP Plan will participate until approval is obtained under ASX Listing Rule 10.14.

If approved by Securityholders, Mirvac intends to grant the performance rights to Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz by 31 December 2020 but in any event by no later than 30 November 2021. If approval is not provided, then, subject to the achievement of the performance hurdle and other conditions described above, Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz will receive a cash payment at the end of the Performance Period equivalent in value to the LTP which would have been received had Securityholder approval been granted.

Recommendation

The Directors (with Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz abstaining in respect of her own participation in the LTP Plan) recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of this resolution. Susan Lloyd-Hurwitz makes no recommendation in view of her personal interest in the matter.

The Chair of the Meetings intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this item.

ITEM 5 — MPT CONSTITUTIONAL CHANGES

The MPT RE is seeking securityholder approval to amend the MPT Constitution (“the Constitution”).

A review of the distribution provisions of the Constitution was undertaken with a view to updating its language, removing outdated provisions and amending it to reflect proposed changes in tax law and current market practices.

As a result of that review, it is recommended that the Constitution be amended.

The primary effect of the amendments is to change the method of calculation of MPT’s distributable income, but they do not reflect any change in Mirvac’s distribution policy, which remains at up to 80% of group operating earnings.

A copy of the amended Constitution, marked up to show the proposed changes, is available on Mirvac’s website at https://agmlive.link/MGR20. Copies of the amended Constitution in hardcopy form may be obtained by emailing [email protected]. Terms capitalised but not defined in this section have the meaning given to those terms in the Constitution unless the context requires otherwise.

If the amendments are not approved by Securityholders, then, no amendments will be made to the Constitution.

Key differences between the current Constitution and the proposed amended Constitution: the calculation of distributable income

The principal amendment proposed to be made to the Constitution relates to the calculation of MPT’s distributable income.

Existing Constitution

The existing Constitution provides that the total “Distributable Amount” for a financial year must be an amount equal to:

  • MPT’s taxable income (after applying the CGT discount); or

  • MPT’s Net Operating Income, subject to various adjustments[1 ] (Adjusted Operating Income),

or an amount between these amounts.

In calculating Adjusted Operating Income, MPT RE may reduce its Net Operating Income by making provisions or reserves. The Constitution does not specify the precise scope of this discretion.

Proposed amended Constitution

Under the proposed amended Constitution, the Distributable Income will be the amount determined by the MPT RE. There will be no minimum or maximum amount.

Proposed changes to the tax law that affect the existing Constitution

Under existing taxation law, a managed investment trust with a capital gain has applied the CGT discount, and then included the discounted capital gain in the taxable income of the trust.

MPT has, at least since 2010, distributed an amount in excess of its taxable income (after applying the CGT discount).

The Government has proposed to amend the operation of the CGT discount provisions (potentially from 1 July 2021) such that:

  • the CGT discount will not be taken into account in determining the taxable income of a managed investment trust such as MPT; and

  • the applicable CGT discount will be applied at the unitholder level to capital gains designated as discount capital gains.

The effect of this proposed amendment is that, in most circumstances, there will be no change to unitholders’ assessable income from MPT[ 2] , nor the amount of any withholding tax deducted by MPT RE.

However, the terms of the existing Constitution may in certain circumstances potentially require MPT RE to distribute an amount in excess of the unitholders’ assessable incomes and increase the minimum amount required to be distributed by MPT RE beyond what the Board determines to be in the best interests of the unitholders. This is because:

  • as a result of the potential change in law, MPT’s taxable income would be increased, even though there is no change in unitholders’ taxable incomes; and

  • although MPT RE could make a provision or reserve to reduce Adjusted Operating Income to the intended distributable amount, the scope of this discretion is not always certain.

For example, assume that in a Financial Year:

  • MPT’s Net Operating Income before reserves and provisions is $400 million;

  • MPT’s taxable income before capital gains is $250 million;

  • MPT makes a gross capital gain of $200 million; and

  • MPT RE intends to distribute $375 million in aggregate for the Financial Year.

Under the current law, adjusted Net Operating Income would be $500 million (being $400 million plus the net capital gain of $100 million after the CGT discount). Taxable Income would be $350 million (being $250 million plus the net capital gain of $100 million after the CGT discount). Accordingly, MPT RE could distribute $375 million in aggregate for the Financial Year as this is between the two amounts specified in existing clause 8 of the Constitution.

Under the proposed amendments to the law, adjusted Net Operating Income would be $600 million (being $400 million plus the gross capital gain of $200 million). Taxable Income would be $450 million (being $250 million plus the gross capital gain of $200 million). In order to then distribute the intended $375 million, MPT RE would need to make a reserve or provision of $225 million to reduce Net Operating Income to the desired distribution amount. Although MPT RE considers that it could generally make such a provision or reserve, this may depend on the facts and circumstances relevant to the particular distribution.

The proposed changes to the Constitution take account of these legal amendments by permitting MPT RE to distribute the amount that it considers is in the best interests of unitholders, without any specific minimum or maximum amount.

  1. For example, net capital gains must be added to Net Operating Income.

  2. The only circumstance in which this could change is if MPT has a net tax loss prior to taking into account any capital gains. This is not expected to occur.

12 MIRVAC GROUP NOTICE OF ANNUAL GENERAL AND GENERAL MEETINGS 2020

EXPLANATORY NOTES ( CONTINUED )

Impact of the proposed changes

The benefits of this proposed change to the Constitution are that:

  • the determination of MPT’s distributable income will involve reduced administration and advisory costs, as the need to determine the existing maximum and minimum amounts some weeks in advance of 30 June each year will not be required;

  • the potential for the actual taxable income or Adjusted Operating Income to be both higher than forecast and higher than the intended distribution is eliminated; and

  • where MPT RE distributes an amount at least equal to its taxable income as calculated under the current law, unitholders will be in the same position as they would be under the current law and Constitution.

Continuing with the example above, given:

  • MPT’s taxable income is $450 million (including $200 million of gross capital gains on assets held for at least 12 months);

  • MPT RE intends to distribute $375 million in aggregate for the Financial Year,

then:

  • under the current law and Constitution, the distribution of $375 million would be between the amounts specified in clause 8 and a resident individual would, after the CGT discount, include their share of MPT’s taxable income (being $350 million: $450 million less $100 million);

  • under the proposed law and Constitution, the distribution would remain at $375 million and a resident individual would, after the CGT discount, include their share of MPT’s taxable income (being $450 million) less their share of the CGT discount of $100 million); and

  • MPT RE will not be prevented from distributing an amount of income that would otherwise be above the maximum allowed under the existing Constitution.

A potential disadvantage of the proposed change to the Constitution is that MPT RE could distribute less than MPT’s taxable income as calculated under the current law. The scope of this disadvantage is reduced by the following factors:

  • MPT RE can generally effect this outcome under the current Constitution by making an appropriate provision or reserve in calculating Adjusted Operating Income such that the aggregate distribution for the Financial Year is equal to or between the Adjusted Operating Income and taxable income;

  • to the extent that MPT remains an attribution managed investment trust and MPT RE distributes an amount less than its taxable income (before the CGT discount), unitholders’ cost base in their MPT units will be increased, thereby reducing future capital gains on disposal of those units;

  • to the extent that MPT RE distributes an amount less than its taxable income, the amount not distributed remains a trust asset and is implicitly reflected in the value of those units; and

  • MPT RE would be required to take into account whether its distributable income is more or less than its taxable income in determining whether the determination of that distributable income is in the best interests of MPT’s unitholders.

Other differences between the current Constitution and the proposed amended Constitution

A summary of the other key changes to the provisions of the Constitution proposed by this resolution is set out in the table below.

Subject matter Comments
AMIT MPT has made a choice to be an attribution
changes managed investment trust (AMIT).
Under the AMIT provisions, it is not necessary
for the amount of the final distribution for
a Financial Year, or the record date for that
distribution, to occur on or before 30 June,
provided that it occurs within 90 days of the
end of the Financial Year.
The proposed amendment to the Constitution
provides MPT RE with the flexibility to determine
the final distribution for a Financial Year before
or within 90 days of the end of a Financial
Year. Under the current Constitution, the
final distribution for a Financial Year must be
determined on or before 30 June.
Distribution A number of clauses in the existing Constitution
processes involve unnecessary administrative costs
including:
> the requirement to transfer distributions into
a separate trust account prior to payment; and
> the requirement to give written notice to
unitholders prior to making a return of capital.
These clauses are proposed to be removed.
Removal of A number of clauses in the existing Constitution
redundant clauses are no longer relevant, including:
> provisions dealing with monthly
or two monthly distributions; and
> provisions dealing with prior capital
re-allocation transactions.
These clauses are proposed to be removed.

The advantages of these further changes are reduced administrative costs in applying the Constitution.

A disadvantage of the AMIT changes is that there may be a circumstance in the future in which the distributable income is lower than it would have been under the existing clause because of an event:

  • that occurs after 30 June but before the date of the determination; and

  • that causes MPT RE to seek to reduce the amount of MPT’s distributable income.

MPT RE could only make such a determination if it has concluded that it is in unitholders’ best interests for distributable income to be lower than it would have been, but for that event.

Recommendation

The Directors unanimously recommend that Securityholders vote in favour of this special resolution.

The Chair of the Meetings intends to vote all available proxies in favour of this item.

1 Name of Trust

  • 1.1 The Trust is called the Mirvac Property Trust or by such other name as the Manager determines from time to time[1] .

  • 1.2 If a Manager retires or is removed its successor as Manager must, unless otherwise approved by the former Manager, change the name of the Trust to a name that does not imply an association with the former Manager or its business.

2 Assets held on trust

  • 2.1 [Not amended, restated or reproduced in any way][2] .

  • 2.2 Any Asset held by the Manager as responsible entity of the Trust must be clearly identified as property of the Trust and held separately from the assets of the Manager and any other managed investment scheme if and to the extent that the Corporations Act so requires[3] .

3 Units and O tions p

Nature of Units

  • 3.1 The beneficial interest in the Trust is divided into Units.

  • 3.2 A Unit confers an equal undivided interest in the Assets as a whole, subject to the Liabilities.

  • 3.3 A Unit does not confer an interest in a particular Asset.

1 See Corporations Regulation 5C.1.02

2

See section 601FC(2) of the Corporations Act

3 See section 601FC(1)(i) of the Corporations Act

Options

  • 3.4 Subject to the provisions of this constitution, the Manager may create and issue Options on such terms and conditions as the Manager determines.

  • 3.5

  • (a) Subject to this constitution, the Corporations Act (and the conditions of any applicable Relief) and, if relevant, the Listing Rules, the Manager may determine that Options will be issued:

  • (i) for consideration (as permitted under any applicable Relief) or no consideration; and

  • (ii) on the basis that the Application Price for a Unit to be issued on exercise of the Option is:

    • (A) for Options issued pursuant to pari passu offers to all existing Members (subject to clause 3.5(b)), the Application Price determined by the Manager provided that the Application Price is less than the price that would otherwise apply under this constitution by a percentage not exceeding 90%; or

    • (B) an Application Price in accordance with clauses 4.8. or 4.12,

and otherwise on terms and conditions and with such entitlements as determined by the Manager.

  • (b) Subject to the Listing Rules and the conditions of any applicable Relief, if the Manager is making an offer of Options to Members which is otherwise in proportion to their existing holdings of Units, the Manager is not required to offer Options under this clause to persons whose address on the Register is in a place other than Australia.

  • (a) An Option Holder may exercise an Option during the exercise period for the Option by giving notice to the Manager in accordance with the terms and conditions of issue of the Option together with payment in full of the exercise price (being the Application Price for the Unit to be issued following the exercise of the Option).

3.6

3

  • (b) On exercise of an Option, the Option Holder is entitled to subscribe for and be issued such number of Units as provided for in the terms and conditions of issue of the Option.

  • 3.7 Upon the termination of the Trust, an Option Holder is entitled to repayment of the issue price paid by the Option Holder for the issue of any Option which has not been exercised, unless the terms and conditions of issue of the Option provide otherwise.

  • 3.8 Subject to clause 3.7, an Option does not confer on an Option Holder any interest in the Trust or any right to participate in any distribution of the income or capital of the Trust.

Rights attaching to Units and Options

  • 3.9 A Member holds a Unit subject to this constitution and the rights, restrictions and obligations attaching to that Unit. An Option Holder holds an Option subject to this constitution and the terms and conditions of issue of the Option.

Fractions of Units

  • 3.10 Fractions of a Unit may not be issued.

  • 3.11 Where any calculation performed under this constitution or the terms of a withdrawal offer would otherwise result in the issue, redemption or creation by consolidation or division of a fraction of one Unit, the number of Units to be issued, redeemed or recorded in the Register as a result of consolidation or division may be rounded down respectively to the nearest whole Unit as determined by the Manager.

Consolidation and division of Units and Options

  • 3.12 Units and Options may be consolidated or divided in any proportion as determined by the Manager[4] .

  • 3.13 While Stapling applies, Units and Options may only be consolidated or divided if the related Stapled Shares and Options over Stapled Shares are also consolidated or divided at the same time and to the same extent.

  • 3.14 Subject to clause 3.15, Members may transfer Units and, subject to the relevant terms and conditions of issue, Options.

4 Refer Listing Rules, Chapter 7 – reorganisations of capital

4

  • 3.15 While Units are Officially Quoted and the Listing Rules so require, a Member may not transfer Restricted Securities during the applicable escrow period.

  • 3.16 Subject to the rules applicable while the Trust is admitted to an uncertificated trading system, transfers must be in a form approved by the Manager and be presented, if the Manager requires, for Registration duly stamped.

  • 3.17 A transfer is not effective until Registered.

  • 3.18 Subject to the Listing Rules while the Listing Rules apply[5] , the Manager may refuse to record any transfer in the Register without giving any reason for the refusal and, while Units are Officially Quoted, must refuse to record a transfer in the Register which would be in breach of clause 3.15.

  • 3.19 While Stapling applies and subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules:

  • (a) the Manager must not register any transfer of Units unless it is a single instrument of transfer of Stapled Securities and any provision of clauses 3.14 to 3.18 of this constitution inclusive referring to a transfer of Units will be deemed to be a reference to such a transfer; and

  • (b) a reference in clauses 3.14 to 3.18 inclusive to a "Unit" will be deemed to be a reference to a Stapled Security.

Joint tenancy

  • 3.20 Persons Registered jointly as the holder of a Unit or Option hold as joint tenants and not as tenants in common unless the Manager otherwise agrees.

Death, legal disability of Member

  • 3.21 If a Member dies or becomes subject to a legal disability such as bankruptcy or insanity, only the survivor (where the deceased was a joint holder) or the legal personal representative (in any other case) will be recognised as having any claim to Units or Options Registered in the Member's or Option Holder's name.

  • 3.22 A person who becomes entitled to a Unit or an Option because of the death, bankruptcy, insanity or other disability of a Member or Option Holder is entitled to receive and may give a discharge for all money payable in respect of the Unit or Option but is not entitled to

5 Listing Rule 8.10 restricts the Manager's ability to prevent proper ASTC transfers, but allows for a holding lock in certain specified circumstances.

5

receive notices of or to attend or vote at any meetings of Members or Option Holders until that person is Registered as the holder of the Unit or Option.

Number of Units and Options

  • 3.23 While Stapling applies and except as provided for in clause 30A, the number of issued Units at any time must equal the number of issued Stapled Shares.

  • 3.24 While Stapling applies, the number of issued Options at any time must equal the number of issued options over Stapled Shares.

Register

  • 3.25 The Manager must keep a Register of all Members and Option Holders as the Corporations Act requires. While Stapling applies, the Register will comprise a single register which records details of the members of the Trust and the Stapled Company.

Stapling

  • 3.26 While Stapling applies:

  • (a) the Manager may not issue Units unless the applicants for the Units are contemporaneously offered identical numbers of Stapled Shares which will be Stapled to the Units offered;

  • (b) the Manager may not issue Options unless Option Holders are contemporaneously offered options over identical numbers of Stapled Shares which will be Stapled to the Units issued pursuant to the Options when they are exercised; and

  • (c) any offer of Units or Options may only be accepted if the offeree accepts that offer of Units or Options, as well as the contemporaneous offer of Stapled Shares or options over Stapled Shares referred to in clause 3.26(a) and (b) as the case may be.

4 A lication Price for Units[6] pp

4.1 Subject to clauses 4A, 19.1 and 30A.2(a), a Unit must only be issued at an Application Price:

  • (a) subject to clauses 4.1 (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) while Units are Officially Quoted, equal to the weighted

6 Required to be included by Section 601GA(1)(a)

6

average Market Price of Units during the 5 Business Days immediately prior to the date on which or as at which the Application Price is to be calculated;

  • (b) subject to clauses 4.1 (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h) and (i), while Units are Officially Quoted as part of a Stapled Security, in accordance with clause 4.4;

  • (c) in the case of a rights issue, in accordance with clause 4.5;

  • (d) in the case of a placement of Units while Units are Officially Quoted, in accordance with clause 4.8;

  • (e) in the case of reinvestment of income, in accordance with clauses 4.10 and 4.11;

  • (f) in the case of a Unit issued upon the exercise of an Option, determined in accordance with clause 3.5(a) or clauses 4.1(a), (b) or (g);

  • (g) in the case of a Unit issued pursuant to an Employee Security Plan, determined in accordance with clause 4.12 or 4.13;

  • (h) in the case of a Unit issued pursuant to a Purchase Plan, determined in accordance with clause 4.14;

  • (i) that is different to an Application Price otherwise determined under this clause 4.1, to the extent that the Manager is able to set the Application Price in circumstances permitted by and in accordance with Relief and the Listing Rules; and

  • (j) in all other cases, calculated as:

Net Asset Value + Transaction Costs

  - Number of Units in issue
  • 4.2 Subject to clause 4.10, each of the variables in clause 4.1(j) must be determined as at the next Valuation Time after:

  • (a) the Manager receives the application for Units; or

  • (b) the Manager receives the application money, or the property against which Units are to be issued is vested in the Manager,

whichever happens later.

  • 4.3 The Application Price may be rounded as the Manager determines. The amount of the rounding must not be more than 1% of the Application Price. Any excess application or other money or property which results from rounding becomes an Asset of the Trust.

7

Determination of Application Price where Stapled Securities are issued

  • 4.4

  • (a) Where clause 4.1(b) applies, a Stapled Security must only be issued at an application price for the Stapled Security equal to the weighted average Market Price of Stapled Securities during the 5 Business Days immediately prior to the date on which or as at which the application price for the Stapled Security is to be calculated.

  • (b) In each case where a Stapled Security is issued the Manager must determine what part of the application price of the Stapled Security is to represent the Application Price of the Unit.

For these purposes, the percentage that the Application Price of a Unit bears to the application price of a Stapled Security must equal the percentage that the net tangible assets of the Trust bears to the net tangible assets of the Mirvac Group as at:

  • (i) unless the Manager determines the date in clause 4.4(b)(ii) applies on or before the issue of the Stapled Securities, 30 June in the prior Financial Year in which the issue of Stapled Securities occurs by reference to the annual accounts of the Trust and the Mirvac Group respectively; or

  • (ii) 31 December that last occurs prior to the issue of the Stapled Securities by reference to the half year accounts of the Trust and the Mirvac Group respectively, where the Manager so determines.

  • (c) Where an option or a right to acquire a Stapled Security is issued or granted, the allocation of the issue price (if any) of the option or right must be determined in the same manner as this clause 4.4.

  • (d) The allocation of the Application Price for a Stapled Security issued under this clause 4.4 must be consistent for each other Stapled Security issued at the same time.

Rights issues

  • 4.5 The Manager may at any time offer Units for subscription at a price determined by the Manager to those persons who were Members on a date determined by the Manager not being more than 30 days immediately prior to the date of the offer, provided that:

8

  • (a) all Members are offered Units at the same Application Price on a pro rata basis (whether or not the right or entitlement is renounceable);

  • (b) in relation to the:

  • (i) November 2008 Offer where:

    • (A) the aggregate of the relevant Application Price for the Unit and the application price of a Stapled Share is not less than 50% of the application price of the Stapled Security which would otherwise apply; and

    • (B) where the application price for the Stapled Securities is determined by a pre-launch cornerstone process; and

  • (ii) June 2009 Offer where the application price for Stapled Securities will be $1.00. This price, being the aggregate of the relevant Application Price for the Unit and the application price of a Stapled Share, is not less than 50% of the application price of the Stapled Security which would otherwise apply under clause 4.4(a), determined as at the date of announcement of the June 2009 Offer; and

  • (c) where Units are not Officially Quoted, the Application Price is not less than 80% of the Application Price calculated in accordance with clause 4.1(j); and

  • (d) while Stapling applies, the same Members are contemporaneously offered identical numbers of Stapled Shares which will be Stapled to the Units offered,

but, subject to the Listing Rules, the Manager is not required to offer Units under this clause to persons whose address on the Register is in a place other than Australia[7] .

While Stapling applies, any offer of Units under this clause 4.5 may only be accepted if the offeree accepts that offer of Units, as well as the contemporaneous offer of Stapled Shares referred to in paragraph (e) of this clause. A person to whom the right or entitlement is renounced shall be regarded as an offeree.

contemporaneously offered an identical number of
Stapled Shares which will be Stapled to those Units;

that the nominee sells the rights in respect of those
Units (and if applicable, Stapled Shares) and (after
deducting the nominee's reasonable costs and
expenses) remits the balance of the funds received by
it for those rights to those Members (in proportion to

(i)
the Manager proposes an institutional placement of

Distributable Income and any items constituting or relating to the
Assets of the Trust, and may account separately for each category,
such categories may include the following without limitation:
(a)
amounts of income or ordinary income or statutory income
(whether or not assessable or exempt income), and amounts
deductible on income account, or amounts deductible as
capital allowances or otherwise as capital expenditure;
(b)
any capital gains, and capital losses or items otherwise
deductible or dealt with on capital account;
(c)

accounting standards or generally accepted accounting principles
and practices which apply to trusts is not to be regarded as a
determination that an item is income or capital or as a
determination of the method of calculating the Distributable
Income of the Trust.
The Manager may, prior to the end of a Distribution Period,
allocate to a Member all or part of the Distributable Income to
which the Member is entitled in respect of that Distribution

The Manager may invest any moneys standing to the credit of the Distribution Account pending disbursement. Income earned from the investment is deemed to be income of the Trust and must be dealt with accordingly. 8.6 If any income is received in a Distribution Period when, in the opinion of the Manager, it is not practicable to distribute it in the distribution for that Distribution Period, it may be treated by the Manager as having accrued during the next following Distribution Period and be distributed accordingly.~~

~~Equalise Distributions~~

~~8.7 Notwithstanding the above provisions, the Manager may withhold from the Distribution Account during the first Distribution Period or if income and capital are distributed quarterly during any of the first 3 quarters of any Financial Year or if income and capital are distributed monthly or two-monthly during any month prior to the last month or any two months prior to the last two-month period in any Financial Year as the case may require, such part of the Distribution Amount in respect of a Distribution Period, Quarter, month or two-month period, as the case may be, as the Manager~~

22

~~deems sufficient to ensure that the amount distributed in respect of each Distribution Period, Quarter, month or two-month period, as the case may be, in that Financial Year will be the same or as close to the same as practicable. The Manager will hold such withheld moneys to the credit of a reserve for equalising the amounts to be distributed from the Distribution Account in accordance with this clause 8. Any income earned as a result of the investment of such reserve will form part of the Trust.~~

~~Participation in Distribution of Income~~

  • ~~8.8 At the end of each Distribution Period a Member is entitled to receive a distribution of the amount (if any) credited to the Distribution Account in accordance with the following formula:~~

~~A x~~ ~~[B ] C~~

~~Where:~~

  • ~~A = the amount standing to the credit of the Distribution Account;~~

  • ~~B = the aggregate of the number of Units held by the Member at the end of the Distribution Period which are entitled to share fully in the Distribution Amount for the relevant Distribution Period plus, if the Member holds at the end of the Distribution Period Units issued during that Distribution Period which have a proportionate entitlement to share in the Distribution Amount in accordance with clause 5.9, the aggregate number of such Units held by that Member multiplied by the relevant proportion;~~

  • ~~C = the aggregate of the total number of Units in issue entitled to share fully in the Distribution Amount for the relevant Distribution Period plus, if Units have been issued during the relevant Distribution Period which have a proportionate entitlement to share in the Distribution Amount in accordance with clause 5.9, the aggregate of the total number of such Units multiplied by the relevant proportion in each case calculated as at the end of the Distribution Period,~~

~~provided that the Manager may from time to time and at any time in its discretion declare a distribution on account of the anticipated Distribution Amount (if any) for that Distribution Period and specify the date as at which the books are to close for the purpose of determining the entitlement to that distribution. The distribution must be paid within 3 months of that date. The distribution so declared shall reduce the entitlements accruing pursuant to this clause 8.8 by an equal amount.~~

23

~~Deduction of Tax~~

  • ~~8.9 The deduction of the following amounts from the Distribution Account is authorised:~~

  • ~~(a) Tax which is paid or payable by the Manager on account of or in respect of the Member on the amount of the net income of the Trust otherwise distributable to that Member;~~

  • ~~(b) if it is determined by the Manager, a charge made by a person on account of Tax imposed on the deposit in an account of the Trust or of the Manager of all amounts received from that Member during the relevant Distribution Period or any Tax imposed on the Manager in respect of the receipt by the Manager of those amounts; and~~

  • ~~(c) if it is determined by the Manager, a charge made by a person on account of Tax imposed on or in respect of the debiting in an account of the Trust of the amount of net income of the Trust otherwise distributable to that Member,~~

~~and all amounts deducted must be applied in reimbursing the Trust for any corresponding amount paid or reimbursed out of the Trust or reimbursing the Manager for the payment of the Tax to the person or authority entitled to it.~~

~~Distribution of Income~~

  • ~~8.10 Subject to any deductions made under clause 8.9 and provided that a Member (being entitled to do so) has not given notice to the Manager that the Member's entitlement to income for each Unit (or part of it) is to be reinvested under clause 8.22 at the end of the then current Distribution Period, the Manager will distribute to each Member the Member's entitlement to the Distribution Amount in accordance with clause 8.8 within three months of the last Business Day of the Distribution Period.~~

  • ~~8.11 If the Member's entitlement to the Distribution Amount includes a fraction of a cent the entitlement is to be adjusted to the nearest cent below the amount of the Member's entitlement and the fraction of the cent shall no longer form part of that Member's entitlement and shall be transferred out of the Distribution Account and included in the Net Operating Income in the next succeeding Distribution Period.~~

~~Adjustments to Capital Reserve Accounts~~

  • ~~8.12 Subject to this constitution the Manager from time to time may transfer capital of the Trust to the Distribution Account for the purpose of enabling a distribution to Members of the Distribution Amount determined in accordance with clauses 8.1 and 8.2.~~

  • ~~8.13 Where a transfer of capital referred to in clause 8.12 occurs then the amount of capital so transferred shall be from the Reserve Account.~~

~~Capital Reserves and Bonus Issues~~

  • ~~8.14 Any realised capital gains of the Trust must be separated from the other income of the Trust and credited to the Reserve Account.~~

24

  • ~~8.15 The Manager may distribute to the Members from time to time by way of cash or other Assets of the Trust as at a date determined by the Manager an amount equal to so much of the net realised gains credited to the Reserve Account as determined by the Manager. The Manager must debit the Reserve Account with the amount so distributed. Where Assets of the Trust other than cash are distributed under this clause the identity of the recipients and the nature of the Assets of the Trust other than cash distributed shall be at the discretion of the Manager.~~

  • ~~8.16 The distribution of cash or other Assets to each Member under clause 8.15 is to be calculated in accordance with the following formula:~~

==> picture [34 x 28] intentionally omitted <==

~~where:~~

  • ~~A = the amount of cash and the value of Assets determined by the Manager to be distributed from the Reserve Account;~~

  • ~~B = the number of Units held by the Member on the date of calculation;~~

~~C = the total number of Units in issue on the date of calculation.~~

  • ~~8.17 Any amount standing to the credit of the Reserve Account may be capitalised by a determination of the Manager. Subject to clause 8.18, if the Manager determines that an amount shall be capitalised, Members shall be entitled to receive bonus Units.~~

~~While Stapling applies, the Manager may not determine to capitalise an amount under this clause 8.17 unless contemporaneously with the increase in the number of Units, the Members subscribe for or purchase an identical number of Stapled Shares which when issued or acquired (respectively) are then Stapled to the additional Units issued. The Manager may make provision for and make payment on behalf of Members of the subscription or purchase price for all or part of such Stapled Shares out of the amount standing to the credit of the Reserve Account and which is otherwise available to be capitalised.~~

~~8.18 The number of additional Units created under clause 8.17 must not be less than the number calculated in accordance with the following formula:~~

~~A B Where:~~

~~A = the amount standing to the credit of the Reserve Account;~~ ~~C -~~ ~~A B =~~ ~~U Where:~~

25

  • ~~C = the amount standing to the credit of the capital account;~~

~~A = as defined above in this clause 8.18; and~~

  • ~~U = the number of Units in issue at the date of capitalisation;~~

~~and each Unit created upon the capitalisation must be issued at the same price determined by the Manager which may be less than the Application Price on that date.~~

  • ~~8.19 Each Member shall be entitled to the same proportion of the total number of bonus units created as the total number of Units held by that particular Member at the date of capitalisation bears to the total number of Units in issue at the date of capitalisation. Following capitalisation:~~

  • ~~(a) the number of Units in issue will increase accordingly;~~

  • ~~(b) the Manager must cause the Register to be amended and take any other steps which the Manager considers necessary to amend the records of the Trust to reflect the capitalisation;~~

  • ~~(c) the Manager may ignore fractions and round each Member's entitlement to the nearest whole Unit (a fraction of a half shall be rounded down to the nearest whole unit);~~

  • ~~(d) the sum capitalised in accordance with clause 8.17 must be debited to the Reserve Account and thereafter be treated in the same manner as funds subscribed by Members to the Trust; and~~

  • ~~(e) the additional Units created will rank for distribution of income and for all other purposes from a date determined by the Manager.~~

~~Stapling~~

  • ~~8.19A While Stapling applies, the Manager may not make a distribution by way of bonus Units under clause 8.19 unless at the same time as the increase in the number of Units, the Members are also issued an identical number of Stapled Shares which when issued are then Stapled to the additional Units issued. The Manager may provide for and pay on behalf of Members all or part of the subscription or purchase price for such Stapled Shares out of the amount available to be distributed.~~

Member Reinvestment

  • ~~8.20~~ 8.17 A Member is entitled, if the right of reinvestment of income has been offered under a prospectus or by notice in writing to all Members or both, by giving notice in writing to the Manager (in the form determined by the Manager) to request that the Manager retain and reinvest in Units the money or part of the money the Member is entitled to receive under clause 8.8.

  • ~~8.21~~ 8.18 A Member may by notice in writing to the Manager (in the form determined by the Manager from time to time) received not later than the last day of the relevant Distribution Period cancel any notice given under clause 8.17 ~~8.20.~~ The Member is entitled to give a further notice under clause 8.1 ~~78.20~~ at any time in respect of any

26

subsequent Distribution Period provided that the Manager has not previously cancelled the right of reinvestment of income. The Manager may by notice in writing to all Members, posted or otherwise sent on or before the last day of any relevant Distribution Period cancel any right of reinvestment of income. The Manager may at any time and from time to time re-offer the right of reinvestment of income to all Members by notice in writing or prospectus or both.

~~8.22~~ 8.19 In the event that a notice under clause 8.1 ~~78.20~~ has been given to the Manager by a Member not later than the last day of the relevant Distribution Period and has not been cancelled by the Member under clause 8.1 ~~88.21~~ the Manager is entitled, but not obliged, out of any money to be distributed to the relevant Member in respect of the relevant Distribution Period to retain all or part of the amount specified in accordance with the notice and reinvest that money on behalf of the Member in Units.

~~8.23~~ 8.20 If the amount to be reinvested in Units results in a fraction of a Unit, the money representing the fraction will be held for future reinvestment in the Trust on behalf of the relevant Member unless the Member cancels the relevant notice under clause 8.1 ~~88.21~~ in which case the money representing the fraction is to be paid to the Member as part of the Member's distribution in respect of the Distribution Period current at the date of cancellation.

~~8.24~~ 8.21 Whenever under this constitution or by law money is held on behalf of a Member for future reinvestment the money so held may be aggregated and when sufficient for the purpose the aggregated amount will be applied in the purchase of a new Unit for issue to the Member in accordance with the relevant provisions of this clause 8.

Restriction on reinvestment

~~8.25~~ 8.22 While Stapling applies, no reinvestment under clause 8.17 ~~8.20~~ may occur unless at the same time as Members are issued with additional Units, Members are issued with an identical number of Stapled Shares which are then stapled to the additional Units issued. The Manager may provide for and pay on behalf of Members all or part of the application money for such Stapled Shares out of the amount otherwise available for reinvestment.

Notice of Reinvestment

~~8.26~~ 8.23 Where a Member has made a request under clause 8.17 ~~8.20,~~ the Member is to be provided by the Manager with a notice to the effect that the whole or part of the distribution to which the Member would otherwise have been entitled has been reinvested on the Member's behalf and the amount of any Tax withheld by the Trustee under clause 8.14 ~~8.9.~~ The notice is to be given by the Manager upon the issue of the Units. ~~8.27~~ 8.24 The Member is to be provided with a ~~Cc~~ ertificate (if required) for the Units. The Units will be deemed to be issued on a date determined by the Manager.

27

~~8.28~~ 8.25 For all purposes the net income to be distributed to a Member is deemed to have been received by the Member on a reinvestment of that income in Units under the terms of clause 8.

~~Monthly Distributions~~

  • ~~8.29 The Manager, upon giving the Members in the Trust notice of its intention not less than 10 Business Days before the end of the month, may distribute to each Member every month, the Member's entitlement to the net income of the Trust calculated on the last day of the month and otherwise in accordance with clause 8. The Manager must distribute the Member's entitlement within 10 Business Days of the last day of the month. If the Manager distributes each Member's entitlement under this clause 8.29 then subject to this clause 8.29, the provisions of clause 8 will apply subject to the word "month" being substituted for the word "Distribution Period" wherever appearing.~~

~~Two-Monthly Distributions~~

  • ~~8.30 The Manager, upon giving the Members in the Trust notice of its intention not less than 10 Business Days before the end of the month, may distribute to each Member every second month, the Member's entitlement to the net income of the Trust calculated on the last day of every second month and otherwise in accordance with clause 8. The Manager must distribute the Member's entitlement within 10 Business Days of the last day of every second month. If the Manager distributes each Member's entitlement under this clause then subject to this clause 8.30, the provisions of clause 8 will apply except that , the word "Distribution Period" wherever appearing in this clause 8 shall mean a period of 2 months.~~

~~Effect of Transfer or Transmission of Units~~

  • ~~8.31 Upon the registration of any transfer or transmission of Units in the Trust from any person (including the Manager) the transferor's interest in any income standing to the credit of the Distribution Account which has not been reinvested under clause 8.22 at the date of transfer will be credited to the account of and must pass to the Member in whose name the Units become registered.~~

~~Distribution on Termination~~

  • ~~8.32 Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary contained in this constitution, on the Termination Date the Distribution Amount must~~

28

~~be transferred to the Distribution Account. For the purpose of this clause 8.32, clause 8 shall operate as if the Termination Date was the last day of the Distribution Period current at the Termination Date.~~

~~Refund of Surplus Capital~~

  • ~~8.33 Subject to this constitution, the Manager may, at a time determined by the Manager, pay amounts representing part of the capital of the Trust to Members.~~

  • ~~8.34 In determining the amount to be paid under clause 8.33 at any time, the Manager must take into account (to the extent it is able) the Manager's reasonable estimate of any amounts expected to become payable under clause 20.3 on a winding up of the Trust.~~

  • ~~8.35 The Manager shall send to each Member a notice in relation to the proposed payment, including the following details:~~

  • ~~(a) the amount proposed to be paid as determined under clause 8.34; and~~

  • ~~(b) the amount to be paid to the Member, calculated in accordance with the following formula:~~

~~A x~~ ~~[B ] C where:~~

  • ~~B = the number of Units held by the Member at the close of business on the date determined under clause 8.33;~~

  • ~~C = the total number of Units in issue at the close of business on the date determined under clause 8.33.~~

~~8.36 On the date determined under clause 8.33, the amount determined under clause 8.34 to be paid to Members is to be transferred to a special account designated a Surplus Capital Account. Any amount in the Surplus Capital Account does not form part of the Trust but must be held by the Manager on trust pending payment to the Members in accordance with clause 8.37. The Manager may invest any moneys standing to the credit of the Surplus Capital Account pending disbursement and any income therefrom will form part of the Trust.~~

  • ~~8.37 The Manager must pay the amount calculated in accordance with clause 8.35(b) to each Member from the Surplus Capital Account. The payment must be sent on or before the date being 10 Business Days after the date determined under clause 8.33.~~

29

  • ~~8.37A In determining an amount to be paid under clause 8.33 at any time before 30 June 2013, the Manager may designate the amount as a 2012/2013 Capital Reallocation Amount in which event clause 8.37B applies in relation to the payment of the amount.~~

  • ~~8.37B Each Member entitled to be paid a proportion of a 2012/2013 Capital Reallocation Amount irrevocably agrees and directs that:~~

  • ~~(a) the Manager must pay the proportion to the Stapled Company on behalf of the Member in discharge of a liability of the Member (in its capacity as a holder of Stapled Shares) imposed or to be imposed on the Member in accordance with the constitution of the Stapled Company, to contribute an amount equal to the proportion to the share capital of the Stapled Company; and~~

  • ~~(b) the only means by which the Member's entitlement to the proportion of the 2012/2013 Capital Reallocation Amount may be paid by the Manager is as expressly provided in paragraph (a) and payment of that proportion in accordance with that paragraph is a good and final discharge of any obligation or other liability of the Manager to pay or otherwise account for the 2012/2013 Capital Reallocation Amount or any proportion of the 2012/2013 Capital Reallocation Amount,~~

~~and this agreement of and direction by the Member applies despite any prior direction given by the Member in respect of payments out of the Trust.~~

  • ~~8.37C In determining one or more amounts to be paid under clause 8.33 at any time after 1 November 2013 and before 30 June 2014, the Manager may further determine that each of that amount or those amounts (as the case may be) is to be treated as a 2013/2014 Capital Reallocation Amount, in which event clause 8.37D applies in relation to the payment of each such amount or amounts (as the case may be).~~

  • ~~8.37 D Each Member entitled to be paid a proportion of a 2013/2014 Capital Reallocation Amount irrevocably agrees and directs that:~~

  • ~~(a) the Manager must pay the proportion to the Stapled Company on behalf of the Member in discharge of a liability of the Member (in its capacity as a holder of Stapled Shares) imposed or to be imposed on the Member in accordance with the constitution of the Stapled Company, to contribute an amount equal to the proportion to the share capital of the Stapled Company; and~~

30

Consistency with constitution of Stapled Company

  • 29.2 The Manager undertakes to use every reasonable endeavour to procure that Stapled Securities are dealt with under this constitution in a manner consistent with the provisions relating to Stapled Securities in the constitution of the Stapled Company.

Suspension of Stapling provisions

  • (b) under Article 7 a Unit, in the circumstances described in that article, may be forfeited and sold or otherwise disposed of by the Company.

The Member authorises the Company and the Manager to take whatever action they consider necessary to give effect to the provisions of those articles including selling, signing an instrument of transfer or otherwise disposing of a Unit so as to ensure that a Unit held by a Member remains Stapled to a Stapled Share.
