3. Rights are Issued

On 3 March 2023, Punakaiki Fund shareholders were issued with one Right for every 10 Shares held. Each Right gives the holder the opportunity to purchase one $19 Share in Punakaiki Fund.

Rights holders can also choose to sell their Rights, and anyone can bid to buy Rights, during a limited-time Rights trading period on Catalist, between 6-10 March. More on Rights trading below. 

After the Rights trading auction completes, Rights holders can exercise their Rights and purchase one $19 Share for every Right they hold. Rights can be exercised between 15-28 March 2023.

4. Trading Rights

Shareholders who wish to sell, and any investor who wishes to buy, Rights can do so during the Rights Trading Period on Catalist.

Bid or Offer before 4p.m. Thursday 9 March 2023

The Rights Trading Period opens on 6 March 2023 for a four-day “open period”. You can only create bids to buy, and offers to sell, Rights during the open period, which closes 4 p.m. Thursday 9 March 2023.

You can trade Rights from the Catalist Punakaiki Fund Rights Page.

Watch the tutorial videos below showing how to submit a bid to buy, or an offer to sell, Rights.

You must download and read a copy of the PDS from the “Key documents” tab on the righthand side of the Rights page prior to continuing with Rights Trading.

If you are offering to purchase Rights, Catalist will email you the payment details relating to your Application Monies. Payments must be received within 24 hours of you submitting a bid to purchase Rights, regardless of whether that offer to purchase Rights is ultimately successful. This approach is undertaken so that Catalist can settle all Rights Trading in a timely manner and the timetable for the Rights Settlement Period can be maintained.

Your bid to purchase Rights may be cancelled if you don’t pay the amount due within 24 hours.

During the Rights Trading Period, Catalist operates a four day ‘open’ period, where bids and offers for Rights can be placed into the auction order book.

Once the open period has been completed, there is a further 24-hour pre-close period where you can increase your bid price by up to 10% and decrease your offer price by up to 10%, but no new bids or offers will be accepted.

At the end of the pre-close period, a clearing price will be determined to maximise the number of Rights traded and all successful bids (at prices at and/or above the clearing price) and offers (at prices at and/or below the clearing price) will be traded at the clearing price.

The Rights Trading Period closes at 4p.m. on 10 March 2023.
