CHESS. This agreement recognises the NSX as a Australian Market
Licencee pursuant to ASX Settlement Operating Rue 4.1A and allows NSX to
be a recipient of the Transfer Service provided by ASX. This

Operating Rules and as such complies with the conditions set out in ASX

and is used to settle trades on your behalf.
