Conditional and deferred settlement trading
VNT has requested that a conditional trading market be provided pursuant to ASX Operating Rule 3330. The
conditions for the conditional market specified by VNT are (i) settlement occurring under the Offer
Management Agreement (as defined in the Prospectus); and (ii) issue of shares by VNT and transfer of shares
by SaleCo to successful applicants and bidders under the Prospectus.
In accordance with ASX Operating Rule 3330, ASX has agreed to provide a conditional market in VNT’s shares.
VNT’s shares will commence trading on a conditional and deferred settlement basis at 1.00 PM AEDT on Friday,
19 November 2021.
The letters "CT" will be displayed in the Basis of Quotation field of ASX Trade to facilitate identification of VNT’s
shares trading on a conditional basis. Market Participants should note that because no Special Market has been
created within ASX Trade, Signal B trade messages will not contain explicit Conditional Trading Basis of
Quotation. This information will be identified in the Daily Diary and Reference Point Master List.
VNT is required to advise ASX immediately of the fulfilment or non-fulfilment of the conditions for the
conditional market. Notification as to when trading will become unconditional will be made in accordance with
the ASX Operating Rules. The market will be advised by ASX market announcement when the conditions of the
conditional market have been met and when the stock will commence trading on an unconditional basis. The
market will not be purged.
In the case of fulfilment of the conditions, ASX will issue a further Market Announcement to Participants
confirming trading arrangements and the date holding statements will be sent to successful applicants. At this
stage, the conditions for the conditional market are expected to be met by Tuesday, 23 November 2021. VNT
has agreed to send holding statements on Wednesday, 24 November 2021, which will mean that the first
settlement date will be Thursday, 25 November 2021.
Contract notes for conditional sales and purchases
While it is the Participant’s responsibility to obtain their own advice concerning the appropriate words that
should appear on a contract note for a conditional sale or purchase, the endorsement suggested below may be
considered for contract notes for conditional transactions in VNT’s shares.
"This contract is conditional upon notification being received by ASX by close of business on Friday, 3
December 2021 that the conditions for the conditional market have been fulfilled. If the conditions are
not fulfilled, this contract shall be cancelled without any liability whatsoever other than for the return
of any money paid in connection with the settlement of the contract."
Advice should also be provided to clients to ensure that they understand the full ramifications of Conditional
Trading.
Indicative key dates
