Conditional and deferred settlement trading
REP has requested that a conditional trading market be provided pursuant to ASX Operating Rule 3330. The conditions for the conditional market specified by REP are (i) settlement occurring under the Offer (as defined in the replacement PDS); (ii) completion of redemption of existing unitholders of each stapled entity; (iii) implementation of equalisation and consolidation of existing units in each stapled entity; and (iv) allocation and issue of stapled securities to successful applicants under the Offer.
In accordance with ASX Operating Rule 3330, ASX has agreed to provide a conditional market in REP’s stapled securities. REP’s stapled securities will commence trading on a conditional and deferred settlement basis at 12:00 PM AEDT on Wednesday, 20 October 2021.
The letters "CT" will be displayed in the Basis of Quotation field of ASX Trade to facilitate identification of REP’s shares trading on a conditional basis. Market Participants should note that because no Special Market has been created within ASX Trade, Signal B trade messages will not contain explicit Conditional Trading Basis of Quotation. This information will be identified in the Daily Diary and Reference Point Master List.
REP is required to advise ASX immediately of the fulfilment or non-fulfilment of the conditions for the conditional market. Notification as to when trading will become unconditional will be made in accordance with the ASX Operating Rules. The market will be advised by ASX market announcement when the conditions of the conditional market have been met and when the stock will commence trading on an unconditional basis. The market will not be purged.
In the case of fulfilment of the conditions, ASX will issue a further Market Announcement to Participants confirming trading arrangements and the date holding statements will be sent to successful applicants. At this stage, the conditions for the conditional market are expected to be met 9:30AM AEDT on Friday, 22 October 2021. REP has agreed to send holding statements on Monday, 25 October 2021. The first settlement date will be Tuesday, 26 October 2021.
Contract notes for conditional sales and purchases
While it is the Participant’s responsibility to obtain their own advice concerning the appropriate words that should appear on a contract note for a conditional sale or purchase, the endorsement suggested below may be considered for contract notes for conditional transactions in REP’s stapled securities.
"This contract is conditional upon notification being received by ASX by close of business on Wednesday, 3 November 2021 that the conditions for the conditional market have been fulfilled. If the conditions are not fulfilled, this contract shall be cancelled without any liability whatsoever other than for the return of any money paid in connection with the settlement of the contract."
Advice should also be provided to clients to ensure that they understand the full ramifications of Conditional Trading.
