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

(As at 31 July 2015) 

                  4,103,091,211

Note:

•    Include only ordinary securities here - other classes of equity securities cannot be added

•    It may be useful to set out issues of securities on different dates as separate line items

                                                                                                                                                                            860,458,126

•    Under an exception in rule 7.2

•    Under rule 7.1A

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

Notes:

573,638,751

Subtract "E"

Note: number must be same as shown in Step 3
