AMP Shopping Centre Trust 01 - Panel Publishes Reasons in AMP Shopping Centre Trust 01

The Panel advises that it has today published its reasons for its decision in the AMP Centro 01 proceedings, which it announced on 13 May 2003. The Panel's decision was to make a declaration of unacceptable circumstances in relation to the affairs of the AMP Shopping Centre Trust (ART). The Panel made orders preventing ART's interests in five major shopping centres being bought out solely because AMP Henderson Global Investors Ltd. (AMPH) is removed as responsible entity of ART following a successful takeover bid for ART.

Austar United Communications Limited

These are our reasons for declining to make a declaration of unacceptable circumstances in response to an application under section 657C of the Corporations Act by Pondale Properties Pty Limited (Application). The Application was for a declaration of unacceptable circumstances in connection with the acquisition by CHAMP SPV Pty Limited and its related entities (CHAMP Group) of a relevant interest of approximately 81% in the share capital in Austar United Communications Limited (Austar).

AMP Shopping Centre Trust 02

These are our reasons for declining to revoke or vary the orders made by the AMP Centro 01 Panel, directing AMP Life (and other Co-Owners) not to exercise any Pre-Emptive Rights in relation to shopping centres part owned by ART merely because the Responsible Entity of ART is replaced following a takeover under Chapter 6 of the Corporations Act. We did not accept that the Panel was constitutionally prohibited from making the orders, that the Panel did not have the power to affect AMP Life's property rights, or that the orders unfairly prejudiced AMP Life or other Co-Owners.
