7.1 and rule 7.1A for +eligible entities

 

Introduced 01/08/12

 

Part 1

 

Rule 7.1 – Issues exceeding 15% of capital
Step 1: Calculate “A”, the base figure from which the placement capacity is calculated
Insert number of fully paid ordinary securities on issue 12 months before date of issue or agreement to issue 407,406,001
Add the following:  
•     Number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period under an exception in rule 7.2

5,435,759

 

•     Number of fully paid ordinary securities issued in that 12 month period with shareholder approval

6,345,650

•     Include here (if applicable) the securities the subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is annexed  
•     It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items  
Subtract the number of fully paid ordinary securities cancelled during that 12 month period Nil
“A” 419,187,410

 

Step 2: Calculate 15% of “A”
“B” 0.15
   [Note: this value cannot be changed]
Multiply “A” by 0.15

62,878,112

 

+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.  
Appendix 3B Page 9 01/08/2012

 

 
 

 

Step 3: Calculate “C”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1 that has already been used
Insert number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued in that 12 month period not counting those issued:  
•     Under an exception in rule 7.2  
•     Under rule 7.1A
•     With security holder approval under rule 7.1 or rule 7.4

62,834,612

Note:  
•     This applies to equity securities, unless specifically excluded – not just ordinary securities  
•     Include here (if applicable ) the securities the subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is annexed  
•     It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items  
“C”

62,834,612

 
Step 4: Subtract “C” from [“A” x “B”] to calculate remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1
“A” x 0.15

62,878,112

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 2  
Subtract “C”

62,834,612

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3  
Total [“A” x 0.15] – “C”

43,500

   [Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1]

 

+ See chapter 19 for defined terms.  
Appendix 3B Page 10 01/08/2012

 

 
 

 

Part 2

 

Rule 7.1A – Additional placement capacity for eligible entities
Step 1: Calculate “A”, the base figure from which the placement capacity is calculated
“A”

419,187,410

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 1 of Part 1  
 
Step 2: Calculate 10% of “A”
“D” 0.10
  Note: this value cannot be changed
Multiply “A” by 0.10

41,918,741

 
Step 3: Calculate “E”, the amount of placement capacity under rule 7.1A that has already been used
Insert number of equity securities issued or agreed to be issued in that 12 month period under rule 7.1A

6,914,938

Notes:  
•     This applies to equity securities – not just ordinary securities  
•     Include here – if applicable – the securities the subject of the Appendix 3B to which this form is annexed  
•     Do not include equity securities issued under rule 7.1 (they must be dealt with in Part 1), or for which specific security holder approval has been obtained  
•     It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items  
“E”

6,914,938

 
Step 4: Subtract “E” from [“A” x “D”] to calculate remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A
“A” x 0.10

41,918,741

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 2  
   
Subtract “E”

6,914,938

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3  
   
Total [“A” x 0.10] – “E”

35,003,803

  Note: this is the remaining placement capacity under rule 7.1A
