What is the name and contact details of Photon Group share registry?
How do I change my address on the Share Register?
You can change your address by either, contacting our share registry or, you can go our share registry website and follow the links to the address change options.
CHESS holders should notify their sponsoring broker (in writing) of their change of address details. The share registry will then receive this change electronically.
How do I change my direct credit details?
You can change your direct credit details by contacting Photon Group's share registry, or directly from the share registry website. This form must be signed by all registered shareholders or noteholders.
Do I have to quote my Tax File Number or my Australian Business Number?
It is not an offence to withhold your Tax File Number (TFN) or, where the securities are held for a business purpose, your Australian Business Number (ABN). However, if you do not provide your TFN or ABN, tax may be deducted from payments of interest and the unfranked portion of dividends and distributions at the highest marginal rate.
You can notify the share registry by mail or fax of your TFN or ABN or you can quote your TFN or ABN over the phone if you give sufficient identification of your holding.
What should I do if I lose my dividend/interest cheque?
You need to contact our share registry in writing or by phone providing details of your shareholding or noteholding and signed by you.
The share registry will arrange a stop payment on the original cheque and issue a replacement to be sent to your registered address. To avoid this situation, you can set up a direct credit of your dividend or interest payments to your bank or other financial institution account. The share registry can provide you with a form for this purpose or, alternatively you can download a form from the share registry website.

No.
If I have more than one Photon Group shareholding can I consolidate them?
Yes.
If you have a CHESS holding and an Issuer Sponsored Holding, you should contact your sponsoring broker for advice.
If the names and addresses on more than one shareholding/noteholding are the same and the holdings are issuer sponsored, our share registry can consolidate them. The share registry provides a Consolidation of Shareholdings Form for this purpose. The form must be signed by all registered holders.

Am I an Issuer Sponsored Holder or a CHESS (broker) Sponsored Holder?
Holder Identification Numbers (HINs) identify CHESS Sponsored holdings (also referred to as Broker Sponsored holdings). Some HINs start with the letter ‘X’ while others have no alphabetic prefix, e.g. X00054321, 00054321.
Securityholder Reference Numbers (SRNs) identify Issuer Sponsored holdings and begin with the letter 'I', e.g. I00054321.
Your HIN or SRN appears on your original holding statement as well as subsequent statements and payment (dividend or distribution) advices. If you are unable to locate these documents, please call the share registry.
Important note: your SRNs and/or HINs identify you as the owner of your securities and should be stored securely.
