(b) the share is issued on or after 4 March 2003; and

(iii) dividend payments for the share are not cumulative;

(iv) any payments made in relation to the share out of net profits or net assets have preferential rights over payments made in relation to ordinary shares (if any) from the same sources;

(v) if the share is to be redeemed - the redemption cannot be carried out without the approval of the board of the mutual building society;

(vi) if the share is to be redeemed, but the redemption of the share would place the mutual building society in breach of a prudential standard made under the Banking Act 1959 - the redemption cannot be carried out without the approval of APRA; and


(e) the redemption is carried out on or after 4 March 2003; and


(f) the share is issued only to a member of the mutual building society; and
