Strategic Energy Resources Limited (ACN 051 212 429) (SER). The Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of SER until 27 April 2012 when the Company was ‘demerged’ from SER by way of an in specie distribution of shares in the Company to existing SER shareholders. The classified assets were, at all times prior to and following the demerger, held by the Company. The Company has (in consultation with ASX) taken the view that for the purposes of this document SER is not a ‘vendor’ and there was no acquisition (or agreement to acquire) a classified asset in the last 2 years. Accordingly, this section will not be completed (unless ASX requires otherwise). |
