Explanatory note
This chapter deals with transactions between an entity (including its +child entities) and persons in a
position to influence the entity. Transactions covered by this chapter include +acquiring and +disposing
of substantial assets by the entity, and +acquiring +securities in the entity.
The chapter also deals with participation by directors (and persons associated with directors) in
+employee incentive schemes and in underwriting +dividend or distribution plans, payments to
directors and termination benefits.
Acquisition and disposal of assets
Approval required for certain acquisitions or disposals
10.1 An entity (in the case of a trust, the responsible entity) must ensure that neither it, nor any of
its +child entities, +acquires a substantial asset from, or +disposes of a substantial asset to, any
of the following +persons without the approval of holders of the entity’s +ordinary securities.
10.1.1 A +related party of the entity.
10.1.2 A +child entity of the entity.
10.1.3 A +substantial holder in the entity, if the person and the person’s +associates have a
relevant interest, or had a relevant interest at any time in the 6 months before the
transaction, in at least 10% of the total votes attached to the voting +securities in the
entity.
10.1.4 An +associate of a +person referred to in rules 10.1.1 to 10.1.3.
10.1.5 A +person whose relationship to the entity or a +person referred to in rules 10.1.1 to
10.1.4 is such that, in ASX’s opinion, the transaction should be approved by
+security holders.
If an entity breaks this rule, ASX may require it to take the corrective action set out in rule
10.9.

Cross reference: Rule 10.7 deals with classified assets. Rule 10.8 deals with getting ASX’s opinion about the
application of rule 10.1. Rule 10.9 deals with corrective action. This remedy is in addition to any other that ASX has
for a breach of the listing rules.

What is a substantial asset?
10.2 An asset is substantial if its value, or the value of the consideration for it is, or in ASX’s opinion
is, 5% or more of the +equity interests of the entity as set out in the latest +accounts given to
ASX under the listing rules.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rules 3J(3)(a), (b) Amended 01/07/00
Note: The entity’s equity interests are consolidated equity interests, if applicable.
Cross reference: chapter 4, which deals with periodic disclosure and rule 19.11A.
10.2.1 In calculating the value, each of the following rules applies.
• Intangibles will be included.
• Provisions for depreciation and amortisation will be deducted.
• Liabilities acquired as part of an +acquisition will not be deducted.
• Separate transactions will be aggregated if, in ASX’s opinion, they form part of
the same commercial transaction.
Exceptions to rule 10.1
10.3 Rule 10.1 does not apply to any of the following.
• A transaction between the entity and a wholly owned subsidiary.
• A transaction between wholly owned subsidiaries of the entity.
• An issue of +securities by the entity for cash.
• In the case of a trust, a transaction involving a substantial asset that was not
beneficially held for the trust before the transaction and is not beneficially held for the
trust after the transaction.
• A transaction between the entity and a person who is a related party by reason only of
the transaction and the application to it of section 228(6).
Introduced 01/07/97 Origin: Listing Rules 3J(3)(h) Amended 13/03/00
Note: As at 13/03/00, section 228(6) of the Corporations Act says that a person is a related party if the entity believes,
or has reasonable grounds to believe, that the person is likely to become a related party.
Application of rule 10.1 to put and call options
Consideration paid for an option
10.4 In the case of an +acquisition or +disposal by the grant or exercise of an option, the
consideration for the +acquisition or +disposal is the total of the issue price of the option and its
exercise price.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3J(3)(c)(i)
Approval before getting an option
10.5 An entity must obtain the approval of holders of its +ordinary securities before the option is
issued, or the issue must be subject to that approval. If the option is issued subject to
approval, that approval must be obtained as soon as practicable after the option is issued.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3J(3)(c)(i) Amended 01/07/97
Approval before exercising an option
10.6 An entity must obtain the approval of holders of its +ordinary securities before the option is
exercised. If approval has been given in accordance with rule 10.5, further approval is not
required at the time of exercise.

+ See chapter 19 for defined terms
1 July 2014 Page 1003
Example: When issued, the issue price and exercise price of the option did not exceed 5% of equity interests.
Approval is not required. At the time of exercise, the issue price and exercise price of the option does exceed 5% of
equity interests. Approval is then required before the option is exercised.
Classified assets
10.7 If an +acquisition to which rule 10.1 applies is of a +classified asset, the consideration must be
+restricted securities. This requirement does not apply if the consideration is reimbursement
of expenditure incurred in developing the +classified asset.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rules 3J(37), 3J(3)(e)
Note: If restricted securities are issued as consideration for the acquisition or disposal the entity must comply with
Chapter 9.
Cross reference: Appendix 9B.
Entity may consult ASX on the application of rule 10.1
10.8 Before +acquiring or +disposing of an asset, an entity may seek the written opinion of ASX on
whether approval is required under rule 10.1. The entity must give ASX complete details of
the transaction. ASX will only be bound by its written opinion if the details given to it remain
materially unchanged at the time of the transaction.
10.8.1 If an entity does not have a written opinion from ASX that approval is not required
under rule 10.1, ASX may require the entity to take the corrective action set out in
rule 10.9.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rules 3J(3)(g)(i), 3J(3)(g)(ii)
Note: This rule allows an entity to ensure that it does not breach rule 10.1 and will not be required to take
the corrective action set out in rule 10.9.
Corrective action
10.9 An entity must take corrective action if ASX requires it to. The corrective action, at the option
of the entity, is either of the following.
10.9.1 Cancelling the transaction (or arranging for its cancellation).
10.9.2 Seeking the approval of holders of +ordinary securities to the transaction. If approval
is not obtained, the entity must cancel the transaction (or arrange for its
cancellation).

10.10A
10.10A.1 The report on the transaction from an independent expert must be given individually
to each holder of the entity’s ordinary securities using the same method as that used
to give notice of the meeting.
Introduced 01/06/12
10.10A.2 Provided the report on the transaction from an independent expert and notice of
meeting have both been given to the holders of the entity’s securities, the report on
the transaction from an independent expert is taken to have been given to the holder
of the entity’s ordinary securities at the same time that the notice of meeting is taken
to have been given to the holder of its ordinary securities.
Introduced 01/06/12
10.10A.3 Regardless of the method used to distribute the report on the transaction from an
independent expert, the entity must:
a) ensure that the report on the transaction by an independent expert is easily
accessible on the entity’s website;
b) ensure that the address of the entity’s website is provided to the holders of
ordinary securities; and
c) if requested by a holder of ordinary securities, send to the holder a hard copy
of the report on the transaction from an independent expert, at no cost to the
holder, and ensure holders are notified of this option in the notice of meeting.
Introduced 01/06/12
Cross reference: Listing Rule 15.1.7. Independent expert reports on a transaction must be given to ASX
under Chapter 15 of the Listing Rules.
Acquisition of securities in the entity
Approval required for an issue of securities
10.11 Unless one of the exceptions in rule 10.12 applies, an entity must not issue or agree to issue
+equity securities to any of the following +persons without the approval of holders of +ordinary
securities.
10.11.1 A +related party.
10.11.2 A +person whose relationship with the entity or a +related party is, in ASX’s opinion,
such that approval should be obtained.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rules 3E(8)(a), 3E(8)(a)c Amended 01/07/00, 30/09/01
Exceptions to rule 10.11
10.12 The exceptions referred to in rule 10.11 are as follows.
Exception 1 The +person receives the +securities under a +pro rata issue.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3E(8)(a)a
Note: An issue is still treated as a pro rata issue under this rule if offers are not sent to
overseas security holders under rule 7.7.
Exception 1 only applies to securities taken up as part of a pro rata issue. It does not apply
to a person taking up all or part of the shortfall of a pro rata issue. For example, a director
who has taken up their entitlement in a pro rata issue cannot take up shortfall securities
under this exception, even if the shortfall is allocated on a pro rata basis to those
participating in the shortfall.
Exception 2 The +person receives the +securities under an underwriting agreement in
relation to a +pro rata issue, provided that the +person receives the
Chapter 10
Transactions with persons in a position of influence
+ See chapter 19 for defined terms
2 November 2015 Page 1005
+securities not later than 15 +business days after close of the offer and
the terms of the underwriting were included in offer documents sent to
holders of +ordinary securities.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3E(8)(a)b Amended 02/11/15
Note: Exception 2 only applies to the issue to an underwriter under an underwriting
agreement of the securities comprising the shortfall from a pro rata issue to holders of
ordinary securities. It does not apply to any other issue of securities to the underwriter
under an underwriting agreement (for example, in payment of an underwriting fee or other
amount due under an underwriting agreement).
Exception 3 The +person receives the +securities under a +dividend or distribution
plan. Exception 3 is only available where the +dividend or distribution
plan does not impose a limit on participation.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rules 3E(8)(a)e., 3E(8)(b)(ii) Amended 11/03/02,
31/03/04
Note: Exception 3 only applies where there is no limit on participation under the dividend or
distribution plan and security holders are able to elect to receive all of their dividend or
distribution as securities. For example, Exception 3 would not apply in the following
circumstances:
- The company has set a cap which may be a specified dollar amount e.g.
securityholders can participate to a maximum value of $x in respect of their entitlement.
- The company has specified a maximum number of securities e.g. securityholders can
only receive securities in lieu of dividend payable for x number of securities.
Cross reference: rule 10.16.
Exception 4 An issue of +securities under an +employee incentive scheme made with
the approval of holders of +ordinary securities under rule 10.14.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3E(8)(a)d Amended 01/07/14
Exception 4A A grant of options or other rights to acquire +securities under an
+employee incentive scheme, where the +securities to be acquired on the
exercise of the options or in satisfaction of the rights are required by the
+terms of the scheme to be purchased on-market (as referred to in rule
10.15B).
Introduced 01/07/14
Note: Exception 4A does not apply to on-market purchases of securities of the type referred
to in the first limb of listing rule 10.15B. Such purchases do not involve an issue of shares.
They therefore are not caught by listing rule 10.11 and no exception to that rule is needed in
relation to them.
Exception 5 The +person receives the +securities under an off-market bid that was
required to comply with the Corporations Act, or as part of a merger by
way of scheme of arrangement under Part 5.1 of the Corporations Act.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3E(8)(a)f Amended 01/07/97, 13/03/00, 30/09/01
Exception 6 The +person is a +related party by reason only of the transaction which is
the reason for the issue of the +securities and the application to it of
section 228(6).
Introduced 01/07/97 Amended 13/03/00, 30/09/01
Note: At 13/03/00, section 228(6) of the Corporations Act says that a person is a related
party if the entity believes, or has reasonable grounds to believe, that the person is likely to
become a related party.
Exception 7 The +person receives the +securities on the +conversion of +convertible
securities. The entity must have issued the +convertible securities before
it was listed or complied with the listing rules when it issued the
+convertible securities.

the number of fully paid +ordinary securities already on issue.
• The issue price of the +securities is at least 80% of the +volume

the +securities.
Introduced 30/09/01

caught by rule 10.14.2 or 10.14.3.
Note: Where a single person who fits into a category of persons covered by the rule is to participate in a
scheme which is an employee incentive scheme for the purposes of the rule, the entity must seek
approval under this rule.
The issue of shares following the exercise of options which have been issued under an employee
incentive scheme is not regarded as the acquisition of securities under the scheme.

Introduced 01/07/14
Note: On-market purchases of securities by or on behalf of directors or their associates under an employee incentive
scheme, or to satisfy the entitlements of directors or their associates under options or other rights to acquire securities
granted under an employee incentive scheme, are required to be notified to the market under listing rule 3.19A. They
will also generally form part of the remuneration of directors and will therefore be disclosed in an entity’s remuneration
report. They are excluded from listing rule 10.14 on the basis that they do not dilute the interests of other security
Chapter 10
Transactions with persons in a position of influence
+ See chapter 19 for defined terms
2 November 2015 Page 1009
holders and, because they are effected at market prices, do not raise the same concerns about pricing as an issue of
securities.
The definition of "on-market" for the purposes of this rule is the definition in section 9 of the Corporations Act and is
intended to exclude block trades, out of hours trades and certain other transactions effected off-market (even though
they may ultimately be reported to a market operator).
No underwriting by directors and associates
10.16 An entity must not permit any of the following persons to underwrite a +dividend or distribution
plan.
10.16.1 A director of the entity (in the case of a trust, the responsible entity).

entity).
10.16.3 A +person whose relationship with the entity or a +person referred to in rules 10.16.1
or 10.16.2 is, in ASX’s opinion, such that the +person should not underwrite the plan.
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3E(8)(b) Amended 01/07/98, 30/09/01
Payments to directors
10.17 An entity must not increase the total aggregate amount of directors’ fees payable to all of its
non-executive directors without the approval of holders of its +ordinary securities.
The notice of meeting must include the following:
• the amount of the increase;
• the maximum aggregate amount of directors’ fees that may be paid to all of the entity’s
non-executive directors;
• details of any +securities issued to a non-executive director under rule 10.11 or 10.14
with the approval of the holders of the entity’s +ordinary securities at any time within
the preceding 3 years; and
• a +voting exclusion statement.
For the purposes of this rule, “directors’ fees” means all fees payable by the entity or any of its
+child entities to a non-executive director for acting as a director of the entity or any +child
entity (including attending and participating in any board committee meetings) and includes
superannuation contributions for the benefit of a non-executive director and any fees which a
non-executive director agrees to sacrifice for other benefits. It does not include
reimbursement of genuine out-of-pocket expenses, genuine “special exertion” fees paid in
accordance with the entity’s constitution, or +securities issued to a non-executive director
under rule 10.11 or 10.14 with the approval of the holders of the entity’s +ordinary securities).
Introduced 01/07/96 Origin: Listing Rule 3L(7) Amended 01/06/10, 01/07/14
Note 1: This rule does not apply to the director’s fees paid to a non-executive director of a child entity who is not also
a director of the entity.
Note 2: For the avoidance of doubt, directors’ fees sacrificed to pay for the purchase of securities in the entity
(whether under an employee incentive scheme of the type referred to in rule 10.15B or otherwise) must come out of
the total amount of directors’ fees approved by the holders of its ordinary securities under rule 10.17.
Note 3: ASX does not regard acting as a director of a child entity or attending and participating in normal board
committee meetings (such as an audit, nomination, remuneration or risk committee) of the entity or a child entity as a
“special exertion” by a director and therefore the fees paid by an entity or any of its child entities to a non-executive
director for such services must come out of the total amount of directors’ fees approved by the holders of its ordinary
