Despite the fact that the shares are trading “ex entitlement” on ITS, CHESS will not recognise for settlement purposes the “ex entitlement” or the “cum entitlement” tag on CHESS messages. As a result, CHESS will not maintain cum balances in these shares within the system.

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 Company’s shares. Persons who trade the Company’s securities after the commencement of the trading halt on Friday, 27 March 2009 will not be entitled to participate in the Entitlement Offer.
