to a share. In circumstances where an issuer is undergoing certain material corporate events that will involve a distribution, such as stock-splits, spin-offs or other distributions in circumstances where the effective date or payment date of the
event cannot be determined with certainty in advance, &#147;due bills&#148; are attached to the listed shares of that issuer on the Ex Date, which &#147;due bills&#148; represent the entitlement to receive that distribution notwithstanding that the
shares began trading <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">&#147;ex-distribution&#148;</FONT> on the Ex Date. In this way, the buyer and seller of the share will be acquiring and disposing of both the share and the distribution &#147;due bill&#148;
