ANZO: key dates and new NZX ticker
October 29, 2010
As part of the conversion of AMP NZ Office Trust (ANZO) from a unit trust into a company, ANZO has advised that:
- A trading halt on ANZO units (APT) has been in effect since 26 October 2010
- Shares in the new company, AMP NZ Office Limited, will be transferred to existing ANZO investors (other
than those who are to receive cash) on 1 November 2010
- Quotation and trading on the NZSX will also begin on 1 November 2010
- The new NZX code or ticker for AMP NZ Office Limited will be “ANO”
- The requirements of overseas securities laws (and/or the associated costs of compliance) mean that it has not been practicable to offer shares in the new company to existing investors resident in some overseas countries. These investors will instead receive cash for their ANZO units, at a price of NZ 76.8756 cents per unit, being the volume weighted average price for the five trading days commencing on 18 October 2010.
No action is required on the part of ANZO investors.
