General securityholder tax information for securityholders holding
securities on the Fund’s South African sub register
The Fund and its management arrangements are structured to meet the required criteria to be
classified as an Attribution Managed Investment Trust for Australian tax purposes. As an
Attribution Managed Investment Trust, the Responsible Entity will be required to withhold tax on
Australian sourced income at a concessional rate of 15% on fund payments (or 10% for certain
fund payments from a Clean Building MIT) to individual and institutional securityholders in South
Africa and certain other jurisdictions with an exchange of information (EOI) agreement with
Australia. Distributions of Australian sourced income to securityholders that are not resident in
EOI jurisdictions will be subject to WHT at the rate of 30%.
The New Zealand sourced income is subject to the corporate tax rate in New Zealand of 28% and
is not subject to Australian WHT.
The proportion of the payment in respect of the six months ended 31 March 2021 which is
attributable to a fund payment from a Clean Building MIT is nil AUD cents per security.
The effect of these taxes on the final distribution has been to reduce the rate to 9.91175%,
equivalent to 0.44906 AUD cents per security, through certain deductions such as depreciation.
Thus, tax of 0.44906 AUD cents per security will be withheld from the final distribution accruing
to securityholders and will be paid to the Australian Taxation Office for Australian sourced income.
South African securityholder South African income tax implications
The implications below are of a general nature and should not be relied upon by securityholders
as specific South African income tax advice. It does not purport to be a complete analysis of the
potential South African income tax consequences applicable to each securityholder in respect of
Distributions received/accrued from Irongate. Securityholders should obtain independent
income tax advice with regard to the South African income tax consequences of acquiring,
holding and disposing of securities having regard to each securityholder’s circumstances.
The final distribution is regarded as a distribution from a foreign trust for South African
securityholders.
The final distribution should comprise taxable income and is to be taxed as such dependent on
the underlying nature of the income and capital gains noted above, in the hands of South African
securityholders. The pre-WHT distribution is to be included in a securityholder’s taxable income
and subject to normal tax in full. Tax paying securityholders may be entitled to claim a foreign tax
credit equivalent to 9.91175%. For distributions where the South African securityholder only
becomes entitled to the distribution in a financial year subsequent to the financial year in which
the income or capital gain was earned by the Fund, the South African securityholder may not be
able to claim a foreign tax credit.
