First Schedule (Clause 4) We Reinvestment Plan 45

Constitution of Westfield Trust

Name of Trust 1.

  • $1.1$ The Trust is called Westfield Trust, or such other name as the Manager determines from time to time.
  • $12$ 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.

Assets held on trust $\mathbf{2}$

  • $2.1$ The Assets shall be vested in and held by the Manager on trust for the Members, subject to the terms and conditions of this constitution.
  • $2.2$ The Assets 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.

Units and Options 3

Nature of Units The beneficial interest in the Trust is divided into Units. $3.1$ Subject to any applicable Class Rights, each Fully Paid Unit confers on $3.2$ the holder an equal, undivided interest in the Trust. 3.3 Subject to any applicable Class Rights, a Unit confers an interest in the Assets as a whole, subject to the Liabilities. It does not confer an interest in a particular Asset. Stapling provisions 3.4 The provisions of this constitution relating to Stapling take effect if determined by the Manager and, if so determined, on and from the Stapling Commencement Date and apply subject to all other provisions of this constitution which may suspend, abrogate or terminate Stapling. The Manager may, subject to the Corporations Act and, while the Units are Officially Quoted, the Listing Rules, cause the Stapling of any other security or securities to the Units. Units 3.5 Subject to the Corporations Act, the Manager may create and issue Units, including classes of Units, with such Class Rights as it determines. While Stapling applies, the Manager may not issue different Classes of Units except Units which may temporarily be of a different class due to different income entitlements. While the Units are not Stapled, the Manager may issue Units of different Classes. Except to the extent specified in the terms of issue of Units, all Units will rank pari passu.

$\overline{2}$

3.6 The Manager may alter the class of a Unit whether by converting thewhole class of Units to another class or by re-allocating any particularUnits to another class.
Options
3.7 The Manager may create and issue Options on such terms andconditions as the Manager determines. While Stapling applies, anOption may only be exercised if, at the same time as Units are acquiredpursuant to the Option, the same person acquires an identical numberof Attached Securities which are then Stapled to the Units.
Rights attaching to Units and Options
3.8 A Member holds a Unit subject to any applicable Class Rights. Theholder of an Option holds an Option subject to any applicable ClassRights. Subject to the Corporations Act, the interests of Membersholding Units will prevail over the interests of holders of Options inthe case of conflict.
Partly paid units
3.9 Subject to clause 4, the Manager may offer Units for sale orsubscription on terms that the Application Price is payable by one ormore instalments of such amounts payable at such times as theManager determines. The Manager may determine that the rights andentitlements of those Units (including without limitation the right toparticipate in the Distributable Income) will be altered. All the termsand conditions of such an offer (including the details of any alteredrights and entitlements) must be set out in the document offering theUnits for sale. If any Partly Paid Units are issued with altered rights orentitlements, the provisions of this constitution as they apply to suchPartly Paid Units must be read subject to those altered rights andentitlements.
Forfeiture
3.10 If a Member fails to pay in full any instalment due on any Partly PaidUnit on or by the due date, the Manager may, while any part of theinstalment remains unpaid, notify the Member that, if the instalment isnot paid in full on or by a specified time and day (not earlier than 14days from the date of service of the notice) ("Specified Date"), thePartly Paid Units in respect of which the instalment or part instalmentremains unpaid will be liable to be forfeited and an equal number ofAttached Securities will also be liable to be forfeited.
3.11 If any part of the instalment remains unpaid after the Specified Date:
any Partly Paid Unit in respect of which the notice has been(a)given (together with the Attached Securities) may, at any timeafter the Specified Date before the required document has beenmade, be forfeited if the Manager so determines effective atsuch time as the Manager determines; and
all voting rights and entitlements to the distribution of income(b)

and capital in connection with any Partly Paid Unit and the Attached Securities in respect of which the notice has been given are suspended until reinstated by the Manager and, in the case of the Attached Securities, the Stapled Entities.

From the date of forfeiture:

  • the holder of the Partly Paid Unit and Attached Securities $(a)$ ceases to be a Member of the Trust and of each Stapled Entity in respect of the Attached Securities (and has no claims against the Manager or the Trust or the Stapled Entities in respect of the forfeited Unit and the forfeited Attached Securities); and
  • $(b)$ if required in order for ASIC relief to be effective, the Manager holds the Partly Paid Unit on trust for the Members.
  • $312$ A forfeited Partly Paid Unit and any Attached Securities may, subject to compliance with the Corporations Act and the conditions of any ASIC relief and the Listing Rules, be sold or otherwise disposed of:
    • at a price equal to that received from the sale of the Partly Paid $(a)$ Units and, if Stapling applies, any Attached Securities in the normal course of business on ASX; or
    • $(b)$ by public auction; or
    • by private treatv. $(c)$

At any time before a sale or disposition under this clause 3.12, the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Manager thinks fit and shall be cancelled when the Member pays to the Manager the full amount owing in respect of such units.

  • $313$ The former holder of a Partly Paid Unit which has been forfeited remains liable to pay to the Manager on demand:
    • all money which at the date of forfeiture were payable by the $(a)$ holder to the Manager in respect of the forfeited Partly Paid Unit:
    • $(b)$ all costs incurred in connection with the forfeiture, including, without limitation, any costs incurred in connection with any proceedings brought against the former holder to recover the instalment or part of the instalment; and
    • $(c)$ interest calculated at the Market Rate plus 3% per annum on the daily balance of the amounts in (a) and (b) from the date they become due for payment or were incurred to the date of payment.

The former Partly Paid Unit holder's liability under this clause 3.13 ceases if and when the Manager receives payment in full of all such amounts.

  • $3.14$ A statement signed by an authorised officer of the Manager that a Partly Paid Unit and the relevant Attached Securities have been forfeited on a stated date is conclusive evidence of that fact as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the forfeited Partly Paid Unit and the Attached Securities.

  • 3.15 Where a Partly Paid Unit and the relevant Attached Securities are forfeited pursuant to clauses 3.10 to 3.18, the Manager may:

  • receive the consideration, if any, given for the forfeited Partly Paid $(a)$ Unit and relevant Attached Securities on the sale or disposal (or the Manager may determine that the consideration will be received in whole or in party by the Stapled Entities):

  • $(b)$ execute (or procure that the Stapled Entities execute) a transfer of such Partly Paid Unit and relevant Attached Securities in favour of the person to whom the Partly Paid Unit and relevant Attached Securities are sold or disposed of and that person must then be registered as the holder of that Partly Paid Unit and relevant Attached Securities,

The Manager and the person acquiring the Partly Paid Units and relevant Attached Securities are not obliged to ensure that any part of the money which has been paid for the Partly Paid Unit and relevant Attached Securities is paid to the former holder of the Partly Paid Unit and relevant Attached Securities nor shall the person's title to that Partly Paid Unit or relevant Attached Securities be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in relation to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of that Partly Paid Unit or the relevant Attached Securities.

  • Subject to the conditions of any applicable ASIC relief, where forfeited 3.16 Partly Paid Units and relevant Attached Securities are sold or disposed of for cash, the Manager must deduct from the cash received:
    • all moneys which at the date of forfeiture were payable to the $(a)$ Manager in respect of the forfeited Partly Paid Units;
    • $(b)$ all costs incurred in connection with the forfeiture including, without limitation, any costs incurred in connection with any proceedings brought against the former holder to recover the instalment or part of the instalment;
    • interest calculated at the Market Rate plus 3% on the daily $(c)$ balance of the amounts in (a) and (b) from the day they became due for payment or were incurred up to and including the date of forfeiture: and
    • $(d)$ all amounts which have been or will be incurred for commissions, Taxes, transfer fees and other usual charges, if any, on the sale or disposal of the Partly Paid Unit.

The Manager may retain the amounts so deducted as Assets, but the balance remaining (if any) must be paid to the Member whose Partly Paid Units were forfeited.

  • 3.17 Joint holders of Partly Paid Units are jointly and severally liable to pay all amounts due and payable on the Partly Paid Units held by them.
  • 3.18 The Manager is not liable to any former or current holder of Partly Paid Units and Attached Securities for any loss incurred in relation to the sale or disposal of the forfeited Partly Paid Units and Attached Securities.

No fractions of Units or Options

3.19 The Manager may not issue fractions of a Unit or an Option.

  • $3.20$ Where any calculation performed under this constitution or the terms of a withdrawal offer would otherwise result in the issue or redemption of a fraction of one Unit or one Option, the number of Units or Options to be:
    • $(a)$ issued is to be rounded down to the nearest whole Unit or Option (as the case may be):
    • $(b)$ redeemed is to be rounded up to the nearest whole Unit or Option (as the case may be).
  • $3.21$ Any excess application or other money or property which results from rounding becomes an Asset.

Consolidation and division of Units and Options

3.22 Units and Options may be consolidated or divided as determined by the Manager with any resultant fraction of a Unit in a holding being rounded up to the next whole Unit.

Consolidation, division and conversion while stapling applies

While Stapling applies, Units may only be consolidated or divided if 3.23 the related Attached Securities are also consolidated, divided or converted at the same time and to the same extent.

Uncertificated trading

3.24 The Manager is not required to, but may, subject to the Listing Rules and if it so determines in respect of some or all of the Units or Options, issue certificates in respect of any Units or Options while the Trust is admitted to any system or scheme which allows trading of uncertificated securities.

Transfer of Units and Options

  • 3.25 Subject to clause 3.26 and any applicable Class Rights, Members may transfer their Units and holders of Options may transfer their Options.
  • 3.26 While the Trust is Listed, a Member may not transfer Restricted Securities during the applicable escrow period.
  • 3.27 Transfers must be in a form approved by the Manager and, unless the Manager is otherwise satisfied that the requirements for the effective transfer of the Units or Options will otherwise be met, must be presented for Registration duly stamped.
  • 3.28 A transfer is not effective until Registered.
  • 3.29 Subject to the Listing Rules, the Manager may refuse to record any transfer in the Register without giving any reason for the refusal and. while the Trust is Listed, must refuse to record a transfer in the Register which would be in breach of clause 3.26.

Single instrument of transfer for Stapled Securities

  • 3.30 While Stapling applies and subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules if the Listing Rules apply:
    • $(a)$ 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 3.25 to 3.29 (inclusive) of this constitution

referring to a transfer of Units will be deemed to be a reference to such a transfer; and

$(b)$ a reference in clauses 3.25 to 3.29 to a Unit will be deemed to be a reference to a Stapled Security.

Joint tenancy

3.31 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 or legal disability of Member

3.32 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 name. The Manager may determine what evidence must be produced in order to establish the death, or legal disability of a Member.

Number of Units

3.33 While Stapling applies, the number of issued Units at any time must equal the number of issued Attached Securities of each category.

Application Price 4

  • $4.1$ The application price for a Unit is usually its Market Price or, while Stapling applies, the amount determined by the Manager in accordance with clause 4.8. However, a Unit may be issued at another application price in the following cases:
    • $(a)$ in the case of a proportionate offer (including a rights issue), at a price calculated in accordance with clause 4.2;
    • $(b)$ in the case of a non-proportionate offer (such as a placement of Units), at a price calculated in accordance with clause 4.3 or $4.4:$
    • $(c)$ in the case of reinvestment of income, at a price calculated in accordance with clause 4.5:
    • $(d)$ in the case of Units issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option, at a price calculated in accordance with clause 4.6.

Each of the possibilities referred to in this clause 4.1 is independent and any one of them is not limited by any other of them.

Proportionate Offers

$4.2$ The Manager may offer Units for sale or subscription at a price determined by the Manager to those persons who were Members of a Class (whether or not the right to acquire those Units is renouncable), on a date determined by the Manager not being more than 30 days immediately prior to the date of the offer, if:

.
Redemption Price
6.1 Subject to the Corporations Act, the Manager may redeem or cancelUnits or Options.
6.2 Unless clause 6.4 applies, the Redemption Price of a Unit is the MarketPrice of that Unit calculated, as at a date determined by the Manager,on or about the day on which the redemption takes place.
6.3 Unless clause 6.4 applies and subject to the Listing Rules, theRedemption Price of an Option will be the Market Price of that Optioncalculated, as at a date determined by the Manager, on or about the dayon which redemption takes place unless the terms of issue of theOption indicate otherwise.

6.5 The Redemption Price is to be paid on the day on which the relevantUnit or Option is redeemed, or at such other time as the Managerdetermines.

The Redemption Price may be rounded as the Manager determines. 66 The amount of the rounding must not be more than 1% of the Redemption Price.

On-market buy back

6.7 While the Trust is Listed, the Manager may, subject to the Corporations Act and the Listing Rules, purchase Units or Options (whether forming part of Stapled Securities or otherwise) on the Stock Exchange and may cause those Units or Options to be redeemed.

Redemption or buv-back while Stapling applies

While the Trust is Listed, the Manager may, subject to and in accordance with the Corporations Act (including any modifications thereof) and any requirements under the Listing Rules, purchase or cause to be purchased Units or, where Stapling applies, Stapled Securities and cause the Units which in part comprise those Stapled Securities to be cancelled. No Redemption Price is payable upon cancellation of the Units. Where the Units comprise part of Stapled Securities the Manager may only buy back and cancel the Units if the Attached Securities are also the subject of contemporaneous buy-back and cancellation by the respective Entities. Where Units are purchased as part of a Stapled Security pursuant to a buy-back arrangement, the Manager must determine, based on respective market values of the Units and Attached Securities, what proportion of the price paid for the Stapled Security is to be paid from the Assets of the Trust.

No Withdrawal Right 7.

Without limiting clause 6.1, Members do not have the right to withdraw from the Trust or to apply for the redemption of their Units or Options.

Unless the Manager determines otherwise, the value of an Asset for the purpose of calculating Net Asset Value will be its market value.

Income and Distributions 9

Distributable Income

$9.1$ The Manager must calculate the income of the Trust for each Accrual Period ("Distributable Income"). Unless the Manager determines by a resolution of its directors from time to time that the Distributable Income is to be calculated in some other manner, the Distributable Income for an Accrual Period is equal to the greater of:

  • the Net Income for the Accrual Period; and $(a)$
  • $(b)$ the Net Accounting Income of the Trust for the Accrual Period.

Accounts

9.1A Notwithstanding that the Distributable Income of the Trust is to be determined in accordance with clause 9.1, the accounts of the Trust may be prepared in accordance with applicable accounting standards, including international accounting standards to the extent required or relevant, and generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation of the accounts in this manner is not to be regarded as a determination of the method for calculating the Distributable Income of the Trust pursuant to clause 9.1.

Entitlement and Distribution Dates

$93$

9.2 The Manager must distribute all Distributable Income of the Trust for each Accrual Period within two months of the end of that Accrual Period

Distribution Ranking

  • Subject to any Class Rights and the terms of clause $27(2)(e)$ :
    • each Unit ranks for distributions of Distributable Income from $(a)$ the first day of the month immediately following the month during which it is created;
    • $(b)$ where a Unit is created during an Accrual Period, that Unit participates in the Distributable Income in respect of that Accrual Period in the proportion that the part of the Accrual Period (calculated in whole calendar months) for which the Unit ranks for distribution of Distributable Income bears to the total number of calendar months in the Accrual Period; and
    • $(c)$ in the case of a Unit which is a Partly Paid Unit for the whole or part of an Accrual Period, the Unit participates in the Distributable Income in respect of that Accrual Period according to the proportion or different proportions of the issue price that has been paid up on such Unit. For the purposes of that calculation, where an instalment of the issue price of a Partly Paid Unit is paid into the Trust, the Partly Paid Unit in respect of which the payment is made is entitled to rank for an increased participation in Distributable Income from the first day of the month immediately following the month during which the payment was made.

Unit Holders' Entitlements

9.4 Subject to clause 9.3 and any Class Rights, each person registered as a Member at the end of the last day of an Accrual Period is presently entitled to the Distributable Income for that Accrual Period in the proportion which the number of Units held by that Member bears to the total number of Units then on issue but excluding from this calculation Units which do not rank for distributions.

9.5 The Manager must determine the Record Date for the purpose of
determining the persons who are entitled to the distribution. The total
amount to be distributed in respect of an Accrual Period is to be
transferred to a distribution account as soon as practicable after the
Record Date. The payment by the Manager in respect of any Units of
an amount of the Distributable Income calculated in accordance with
this constitution in respect of those Units to the Member registered in
respect of those Units as at the Record Date is a good and sufficient
discharge to the Manager in respect of any liability it may have to any
person in respect of any such entitlement with respect to those Units.

Distribution of Capital to Distribution Account

$96$ The Manager may transfer capital to the distribution account to enable the distribution to Members of the minimum amount necessary to avoid the Manager becoming assessable for tax under the Tax Act.

Other Distributions

97 Subject to any Class Rights, the Manager may distribute any amount of capital or income to Members pro rata according to the number of Units in the Trust held as at a time decided by the Manager. The distribution may be in cash or by way of bonus Units. While Stapling applies, the Manager may not make a distribution by way of bonus Units unless, at the same time as the increase in the number of Units. Members are also issued an identical number of Attached Securities which when issued are then Stapled to the additional Units issued.

Reinvestment

9.8 If the Manager offers a facility under which Members may receive distributions by way of additional Units then, by prior notice, a Member may elect to reinvest some or all of any distribution by acquiring such additional Units in the Trust. In those cases, the Manager is treated as having received an application to reinvest distributions on that date on which the distribution is paid. The procedure for and the rules concerning reinvestment of distributions are to be determined by the Manager and notified to Members from time to time as and when the facility is offered. The Manager may at any time withdraw, amend or re-establish such a facility.

A request to participate in such a facility or cancellation of any such request is effective with respect to a distribution if received by the Manager before the Record Date for that distribution.

Reinvestment while Stapling applies

99 While Stapling applies no reinvestment may occur unless, contemporaneously with the reinvestment in additional Units, the Member subscribes for or purchases an identical number of Attached Securities which, when issued or acquired (respectively), are then Stapled to the additional Units. The Manager may make provision for and make payment of the subscription or purchase price for such Attached Securities out of the distribution or income (as applicable) which is otherwise available for reinvestment.

Withholding Tax

9.10 Where the Net Income is reduced by any Tax attributable to the ownership of Units by certain Members, the entitlement to

Distributable Income of those Members may be adjusted by the Manager so that the entitlement to Distributable Income of all other Members is equivalent to the amount they would receive in the absence of such Taxes.

Distributions Paid in Different Currencies

  • $911$ The Manager may from time to time provide a facility under which a Member may, if the Member so requests, receive his entitlement to the Distributable Income of the Trust from time to time in a currency or currencies other than Australian dollars. The Manager may determine which currency or currencies are offered under the facility, the procedure by which the facility would be offered, and the procedure by which a Member would elect to participate in that facility. If the Manager does offer such a facility, the Manager may arrange to convert the entitlement to Distributable Income of a Member who participates in the facility into the currency in which it is to be paid on a date being:
    • $(a)$ the date that the Distributable Income in respect of an Accrual Period is determined:
    • $(b)$ the Closing Date in respect of an Accrual Period;
    • the date of payment of distribution entitlements in respect of an $(c)$ Accrual Period: or
    • $(d)$ any other date as the Manager may determine.

The Manager may maintain bank accounts in any currencies as may be appropriate for this purpose.

    • 10.3 The Manager may cancel any cheque which is not presented within 12 months from its date of issue. Where a cheque which is cancelled was drawn in favour of a Member, the Manager may reinvest the money in Units and Attached Securities in the name of that Member at the application price for the Units and Attached Securities prevailing at the time the cheque is cancelled or deal with the money in accordance with any relevant legislation dealing with unclaimed moneys.
    • $10.4$ Only whole cents are to be paid, and any remaining fraction of a cent becomes an Asset.
  • $10.5$ A payment to any one of joint Members will discharge the Manager in respect of the payment.

  • 10.6 The Manager may deduct from any amount to be paid to a Member, or received from a Member, any amount of Tax (or an estimate of it) or any other amount which the Manager is required or authorised to deduct in respect of that payment or receipt by any applicable law or by this constitution, or which the Manager considers should be deducted.

  • 26.2 Subject to the provisions of this clause 26, the Manager may in its discretion from time to time sell or redeem any Units held by a

  • 26.3 If the Manager determines that a Member is a Small Holder or a New Small Holder the Manager may give the Member a Divestment Notice to notify the Member:
    • $(a)$ that the Member is a Small Holder or a New Small Holder, the number of Units comprising and the Market Price of the Small Holding or New Small Holding and the date on which the Market Price was determined:
    • $(b)$ that the Manager intends to sell the Relevant Units in accordance with this clause 26 after the end of the Relevant Period specified in the Divestment Notice;
    • $(c)$ if the Member is a Small Holder, that the Member may at any time before the end of the Relevant Period notify the Manager in writing that the Member desires to retain the Relevant Units and that, if the Member does so, the Manager will not be entitled to sell the Relevant Units under that Divestment Notice: and
    • $(d)$ after the end of the Relevant Period the Manager may for the purpose of selling the Relevant Units that are in a CHESS holding initiate a holding adjustment to move those Units from that CHESS holding to an issuer sponsored holding or certificated holding.

If the ASTC Settlement Rules apply to the Relevant Units, the Divestment Notice must comply with the ASTC Settlement Rules.

In the case of a sale of the Relevant Units of a New Small Holder in 26.11 accordance with this clause 26, the Manager is entitled to deduct and retain from the proceeds of sale, the costs of the sale as determined by the Manager. In the case of a sale of the Relevant Units of a Small Holder, the Manager or a purchaser must bear the costs of sale of the Relevant Units. The costs of sale include all stamp duty, brokerage and government taxes and charges (except for tax on income or capital gains of the Member) payable by the Manager in connection with the sale and transfer of the Relevant Units.

  • The remedy of a Member to whom this clause 26 applies, in respect of 26.12 the sale of the Relevant Units of that Member, is expressly limited to a right of action in damages against the Manager to the exclusion of any other right, remedy or relief against any other person. The Manager is only liable if it has failed to comply with the requirements of this clause 26 and its liability is limited to the value of the Relevant Units at the time of sale.
  • Unless the Manager determines otherwise, where a Divestment Notice 26.13 is given to a New Small Holder in accordance with this clause 26, the rights to receive payment of distributions and to vote attached to the Relevant Units of that Member are suspended until the Relevant Units are transferred to a new holder or that Member ceases to be a New Small Holder. Any distributions that would, but for this clause 26. have been paid to that Member must be held by the Manager and paid to that Member within 60 days after the earlier of the date the Relevant Units of that Member are transferred and the date that the Relevant Units of that Member cease to be subject to a Divestment Notice.
  • 26.14 If it is a requirement of the Listing Rules, the Manager must not give a Small Holder more than one Divestment Notice in any 12 month period (except as contemplated by this clause 26).
  • 26.15 From the date of the announcement of a takeover bid for the Units until the close of the offers made under the takeover bid, the Manager's powers under this article to sell Relevant Units of a Member cease. After the close of the offers under the takeover bid, the Manager may give a Divestment Notice to a Member who is a Small Holder or a New Small Holder, despite this clause 26 and the fact that it may be less than 12 months since the Manager gave a Divestment Notice to that Member.
  • 26.16 While Stapling applies:
  • the references to Units and Relevant Units in this clause 26 will apply $(a)$ to the Stapled Securities held by the Member; and
  • $(b)$ no sale under this clause 26 may occur unless, at the same time as Units are sold, an identical number of Attached Securities are also sold.

26A Stapling

Paramountcy of Stapling provisions

26A.1 The provisions of this constitution relating to Stapling prevail over all other provisions of this constitution including any that are expressed to prevail over others, except where this would result in a breach of the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules (if the Listing Rules apply) or any other law.

Maintenance of listing and consistency with constitutions of the Stapled Entities

26A.2 The Manager must use every reasonable endeavour to procure that, if the Stapled Securities are and continue to be Officially Quoted as one joint security, that the Stapled Securities are dealt with under this constitution in a manner consistent with the provisions relating to the Attached Securities in the constitutions of the Stapled Entities.

$26A.3$ If the Manager determines that Stapling will apply, the Units are to be stapled to the Stapled Shares and the Stapled Units in the ratio of one Unit to one Stapled Share and one Stapled Unit as from the Stapling Commencement Date. The Manager must not cause Stapling to commence while the Trust has more than one Class of Units. The intention is that, so far as the law permits, a Unit, a Stapled Share and a Stapled Unit which are Stapled together will be treated as one security. If further Attached Securities are from time to time Stapled to the Units the intention is that, so far as the law permits, a Unit and one of each of the Attached Securities which are Stapled together will be treated as one security.
