• 152.4 The Company must bear all costs of and incidental to the sale of security holdings under this rule 152.

• 152.5 The Purchaser is not bound to see to the regularity of the actions and proceedings of the Company under this rule 152 or to the application of the Sale Consideration in respect of a Minority Member's relevant securities. After the Purchaser's name is entered in the Register in respect of the relevant securities the validity of the sale or other disposal may not be impeached by any person and the remedy of any person agarieved by the sale or other disposal is in damages only and against the Company exclusively. The title of the Purchaser is not affected by any irregularity or invalidity in connection with the sale or disposal of the relevant securities to the Purchaser.

• 152.8 This rule 152 may be invoked only once in any 12 month period.

• 152.9 The power to sell in this rule 152 lapses following the announcement of a takeover offer or the making of a takeover announcement.

153. Transmission of Shares

Icompare replaceable rules 1072A, 1072B and 1072D and section 1072C1

• 153.1 If a shareholder who does not own shares jointly dies, the Company will recognise only the personal representative of the deceased shareholder as being entitled to the deceased shareholder's interest in the shares

• 153.2 If the person entitled to shares as the personal representative of a deceased shareholder or because of the bankruptcy or mental incapacity of a shareholder ("successor") gives the directors the information they reasonably require to establish the successor's entitlement to be registered as holder of the shares:

  • $(1)$ the successor may:
    • by giving a written and signed notice to the Company, elect to be (a) registered as the holder of the shares; or
    • $(b)$ by giving a completed transfer form to the Company, transfer the shares to another person; and

• $(2)$ the successor, whether or not registered as the holder of the shares, is entitled to the same rights, and is subject to the same liabilities, as if the successor were registered as holder of the shares.

• 153.3 On receiving an election under rule 153.2(1)(a), the Company must register the successor as the holder of the shares.

• 153.4 A transfer under rule 153.2(1)(b) is subject to the same rules (for example, about entitlement to transfer and registration of transfers) as apply to transfers generally.

• 153.5 If a shareholder who owns shares jointly dies, the Company will recognise only the survivor as being entitled to the deceased shareholder's interest in the shares. The estate of the deceased shareholder is not released from any liability in respect of the shares.

• 153.6 This rule 153 has effect subject to the Bankruptcy Act 1966.

154. Procedure for Forfeiture

• 154.1 If a member fails to pay a call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment of the call or instalment or fails to pay any money payable under rule 117 the directors may while any part of the call or instalment or other money remains unpaid serve a notice on the member requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment or other money as is unpaid together with any interest that has accrued.

• 154.2 The notice must:

  • $(1)$ appoint a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days after the date of service of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made: and
  • $(2)$ state that, in the event of non-payment at or before the day appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

• 154.3 If the requirements of a notice served under rule 154.1 are not complied with, any share in respect of which the notice has been given may, unless the payment required by the notice has been made, be forfeited by a resolution of the directors to that effect.

• 154.4 The forfeiture includes all dividends declared or payable in respect of the forfeited share and not actually paid before the forfeiture.

• 154.5 The Company may, subject to the Act and the Listing Rules, sell a forfeited share or otherwise dispose of it on terms and in a manner the directors see fit and where the SCH Business Rules apply the directors and the Company have authority to do whatever is necessary or appropriate under the SCH Business Rules to effect the transfer.

• 154.6 The directors may at any time before a forfeited share has been sold or otherwise disposed of, annul the forfeiture upon conditions they see fit.

• 154.7 A person whose shares have been forfeited ceases to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares, but remains liable to pay all calls, instalments, interest and expenses owing on or payable in respect of the shares at the time of forfeiture together with interest from the time of forfeiture until payment in full at the rate determined by at least three quarters of the directors at that time. The directors may enforce payment of the money as they see fit but are not under any obligation to do so. Subject to the terms of issue of any partly paid share, if the directors elect to enforce payment, it shall be by a resolution made by at least three quarters of the directors at that time. The member liable to make such payment shall be required to pay by 10 equal annual part payments.

• 154.8 A statement in writing declaring that the person making the statement is a director or a secretary of the Company, and that a share in the Company has been duly forfeited on a date stated is prima facie evidence of the facts stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share.

• 154.9 The provisions of this constitution as to forfeiture apply in the case of non-payment of any sum that, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, as if that sum had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

155. Transfer of Forfeited Share

• 155.1 The Company may receive the consideration (if any) given for a forfeited share on any sale or disposition of the share and may execute a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the share is sold or disposed of.
• 155.2 Upon the execution of the transfer, the transferee is entitled to be registered as the holder of the share and is not bound to see to the application of any money paid as consideration.
• 155.3 The title of the transferee to the share is not affected by any irregularity or invalidity in connection with the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share.

• 159.1 The Company may execute a document without using a common seal if the document is signed by:
  • $(1)$ 2 directors of the Company; or
  • $(2)$ a director and a company secretary of the Company.

160. Execution of Document as a Deed

[section 127(3)]

160.1 The Company may execute a document as a deed if the document is expressed to be executed as a deed and is executed in accordance with rule 158 or rule 159.

Execution - General $161 -$

[compare sections 129(5), 129(6) and 127(4)]

• 161.1 The same person may not sign in the dual capacities of director and secretary.
• 161.2 A director may sign any document as director, with or without the common seal, although the document relates to a contract, arrangement, dealing or other

transaction in which he or she is interested and his or her signature complies with the requirements of this constitution as to execution despite his or her interest.

161.3 Rules 158 and 159 do not limit the ways in which the directors may authorise documents (including deeds) to be executed on behalf of the Company.

INADVERTENT OMISSIONS

Formalities Omitted $162 -$

Icompare section 13221

162.1 If some formality required by this constitution is inadvertently omitted or is not carried out the omission does not invalidate anything, including any resolution, which but for the omission would have been valid unless it is proved to the satisfaction of the directors that the omission has directly prejudiced any member financially. The decision of the directors is final and binding on all members.

NOTICES

163. Notices Other than Notices of Meeting

• 163.1 Any notice by the Company to a member (subject to the terms of issue of any partly paid shares), including a notice in connection with a call or forfeiture, may be given in the same way as a notice of meeting may be given under rule 71, and the time the notice is taken to be given is the same as provided in the case of a notice of meeting by rule 72.
• 163.2 The references in rule 70.2 to notices to persons entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member, and in rule 121.1(5) to notices to joint holders of a share apply to any notice given by the Company.

WINDING UP

164. Shareholders' Rights on Distribution of Assets

• 164.1 Subject to rule 164.4, if the Company is wound up, the liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution, divide among the members in kind the whole or any part of the property of the Company and may for that purpose set the value the liquidator considers fair upon any property to be so divided and may determine how the division is to be carried out as between the members or different classes of members.

• 164.2 The liquidator may, with the sanction of a special resolution, vest the whole or any part of the property referred to in rule 164.1 in trustees upon trusts for the benefit of the contributories that the liquidator sees fit, but so that no member is compelled to accept any shares or other securities on which there is any liability.

• 164.3 If the Company ceases to carry on business within 12 months after its incorporation. shares issued for cash rank in the distribution, to the extent of the capital contributed by subscribing shareholders, in priority to shares issued to vendors or promoters or both for consideration other than cash.

• 164.4 On the winding up of the Company, members have the right to participate in the division of any surplus assets or profits of the Company in proportion to the number of equivalent fully paid shares held and for this purpose, a partly paid share is counted as a fraction of an equivalent fully paid share equal to the proportion which the amount paid on it (including any amount paid in advance of calls) bears to the total issue price of the share.

165. Remuneration of Liquidator

165.1 The Company in general meeting must not fix the remuneration to be paid to a liquidator pursuant to the Act unless at least 14 days' notice of the meeting has been given to the members and the notice has specified the amount of the proposed remuneration of the liquidator.

PARTIAL TAKEOVERS

166. Partial Takeovers

Icompare section 648D1

  • $(2)$ "relevant day" in relation to a takeover scheme means the day that is the 14th day before the end of the period during which the offers under the takeover scheme remain open: and

  • other than where a transfer is effected in accordance with the takeover $(1)$ provisions (if any) under the SCH Business Rules, the registration of a transfer giving effect to a contract resulting from the acceptance of an offer made under the takeover scheme is prohibited unless and until a resolution (in this rule 166.2 referred to as an "approving resolution") to approve the takeover scheme is passed in accordance with this rule 166:
  • $(2)$ a person (other than the offeror or a person associated with the offeror) who, as at the end of the day on which the first offer under the takeover scheme was made, held shares in that class is entitled to vote on an approving

resolution and, for the purpose of so voting, is entitled to 1 vote for each of the shares:

• an approving resolution must be voted on at a meeting, convened and $(3)$ conducted by the Company, of the persons entitled to vote on the resolution: and
• $(4)$ an approving resolution that has been voted on, is taken to have been passed if the proportion that the number of votes in favour of the resolution bears to the total number of votes on the resolution is greater than 1/2, and otherwise is taken to have been rejected.
• 166.3 The provisions of this constitution that apply in relation to a general meeting of the Company apply with any modifications the circumstances require, in relation to a meeting that is convened pursuant to this rule 166 as if the last mentioned meeting were a general meeting of the Company.

a notice in writing stating that a resolution to approve the takeover scheme has been voted on and that the resolution has been passed, or has been rejected, as the case requires.

• 166.6 Where, at the end of the day before the relevant day in relation to a proportional takeover scheme under which offers have been made, no resolution to approve the takeover scheme has been voted on in accordance with this rule 166, a resolution to approve the takeover scheme must, for the purposes of this rule 166, be treated as having been passed in accordance with this rule 166.

• 166.7 Where a resolution to approve a proportional takeover scheme is voted on in accordance with this rule 166 before the relevant day in relation to the takeover scheme and is rejected, then:

  • despite section 652A of the Act, all offers under the takeover scheme that $(1)$ have not, as at the end of the relevant day, been accepted, and all offers under the takeover scheme that have been accepted and from whose acceptance binding contracts have not, at the end of the relevant day, resulted, must be treated as withdrawn at the end of the relevant day; and
  • $(2)$ a person who has accepted an offer made under the takeover scheme is entitled to rescind the contract (if any) resulting from that acceptance.

• 166.8 Nothing in this rule 166 authorises the Company to interfere with any takeover transfer procedures contained in the SCH Business Rules.

Paramount Effect of Listing Rules 168.

  • notwithstanding anything contained in this constitution, if the Listing Rules $(1)$ prohibit an act being done, the act must not be done;
  • nothing contained in this constitution prevents an act being done that the $(2)$ Listing Rules require to be done:

  • $(4)$ if the Listing Rules require this constitution to contain a provision and it does not contain such a provision this constitution must be treated as containing that provision;
  • $(5)$ if the Listing Rules require this constitution not to contain a provision and it contains such a provision, this constitution must be treated as not containing that provision; and

• $(6)$ if any provision of this constitution is or becomes inconsistent with the Listing Rules, this constitution must be treated as not containing that provision to the extent of the inconsistency.

• 168.2 Where any rule, or provision in any rule, is:
