The Buy-back Price is the NAV Per Unit as at the Buy-Back Pricing Date (Wednesday, 30 September 2026). The NAV Per Unit will be calculated by the independent Administrator of the Trust.
If the Responsible Entity receives acceptances for more units than 2.5% of the total Units of the Trust, Nominated Units the subject of valid acceptances will be subject to a Scale-Back and reduced by the same proportion needed to ensure the Responsible Entity buys back no more than 2.5% of the total Units of the Trust on issue at the Buy-Back Record Date. If the Responsible Entity only receives acceptances for fewer units than 2.5% of the total Units of the Trust on issue at the Buy-Back Record Date, then all units the subject of valid acceptances will be bought back. If the number of Units to be bought back under the Buy-Back would exceed the 10/12 Limit and Unitholder approval to do so has not been obtained, the Nominated Units the subject of valid acceptances will also be subject to Scale-Back and reduced by the same proportion needed to ensure the Responsible Entity buys back no more than the maximum amount permitted by the 10/12 Limit.
CHESS will process acceptance messages until 7:00pm (Sydney time) on Wednesday, 23 September 2026, or in the event that the bid is extended, such other time as may be notified by bidder to the market.
