Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that
Ludowici Limited 01 [2012] ATP 3 and Ludowici Limited 01R [2012] ATP 4

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

Work of members
When a party makes an application a sitting Panel of three members is appointed by the President to consider the application The average number of applications the Panel receives each year is 30 In the current period there were 16 applications Where possible the work of the Panel is shared so that each member is called on to sit on one to three matters per year subject to conflicts workload and other factors affecting availability Panel members also participate in the development of Guidance Notes general Panel policy and meetings where parties provide feedback to the Panel
The Panel also holds full day roundtable sessions each year Panel members value these meetings As Panel members reside in different cities these sessions are an opportunity for them to get together and discuss past proceedings policy issues and market developments
The firms of the Panel members allow their key people to devote time and resources to the Panel and they host the Panelrsquos roundtable days each year The Panel appreciates this support

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that
Ludowici Limited 01 [2012] ATP 3 and Ludowici Limited 01R [2012] ATP 4

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles

The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles

The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

Ms Kathleen Farrell President of the Panel
Review by the President
The 2011-2012 year was marked by subdued activity in the mergers and acquisitions market in Australia and overseas This is reflected in the Panel receiving the least number of applications since 2000 (16 compared to an average of 30)
The Panel did however consider some significant and complex applications involving truth in takeovers principles association bidderrsquos statement disclosure and rights issues
The amount of time the Panel took to determine applications this year was slightly better than average (145 calendar days compared to the average of 15 calendar days)
Of course in order to operate effectively in such short time frames the Panel relies on parties and their advisors to be frank and accurate in the material they put to the Panel The advisors involved in Panel proceedings assume a significant responsibility for ensuring that the Panel is not misled or lacking relevant information within the partiesrsquo knowledge While most advisors meet this standard we experienced one or two incidents which caused us concern For example one involved the failure of a party to advise the Panel that it had approached a court for an injunction in relation to essentially the same matter about which it had applied to the Panel for an interim order
One reason the Panel does operate effectively is that it is a principles-based body and the Panelrsquos decisions reflect the particular facts of each case and commercial reality Even slight changes in the facts can result in a different outcome Thus it would be incorrect to say as some market participants did following the Panelrsquos decisions in Ludowici Limited1 dealing with the principle of truth in takeovers that

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

the Panel would only ever order compensation In an appropriate case the Panel may indeed hold a bidder to the literal terms of a last and final statement
If the 2011-12 year was a relatively restrained year in the number of takeover transactions it is a year in which there has been active policy discussion in the takeovers area which we welcome Because the Panel is a principles-based body market participants and ASIC can apply to the Panel to test market practices by reference to current standards Under our regime the Panel may only act upon application by parties or ASIC
The Panel members and I greatly appreciate the support of Allan Bulman Alan Shaw and their small executive team I also want to thank our secondees and the law firms who have generously offered secondees to the Panel Given the reduced workload this year for some period we have had only one secondee While this has given those secondees a better experience of the Panel it has from time to time stretched the resources of the executive team and we expect to revert to two secondees in the 2012-13 year
The executive continued their focus on ensuring that the Panel is understood by all sectors of the market and they expect to complete an index of the Panelrsquos decisions for our website soon They have made a number of presentations to law firms and professional associations and continue their practice of conducting roadshows around the time of Panel days around Australia The executive are available by phone or in person to participants The executive invites parties after a matter has ended to participate in a post matter review usually in the presence of a Panel member who has not been involved in the matter Five post matter reviews were conducted in this period
At 30 June 2012 the Panel was made up of 52 part time members having continued to recruit members of an extremely high quality I thank members for their work throughout the year as participants in sitting panels at Panel days and in working groups developing guidance All give of their time generously I in particular thank those whose terms ended in this reporting period for their service

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

Unacceptable circumstances

In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3
Role
The Panel has two main roles
bull making declarations of unacceptable circumstances under section 657A and orders under section 657D to remedy those circumstances and
bull reviewing decisions of ASIC under section 656A (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6) and during a takeover bid section 673 (modifications of or exemptions from Chapter 6C)
To support these roles the Panel issues Guidance Notes (available on its website under lsquoGuidance Notesrsquo) and publishes its reasons (available on its website under lsquoReasons for Decisionsrsquo) The Panel also has a rule making power4
Unacceptable circumstances
The Panelrsquos main work involves deciding applications for declarations of unacceptable circumstances The Panel must consider the principles in section 602 the provisions of the takeovers chapter and the public interest
In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred
On an application for review by a party the Panel reviews decisions of the Panel made at first instance (in relation to declarations of unacceptable circumstances)5
The review is a merits review A review Panel comprises three different members

SECTION 2 mdash THE PANEL
Introduction
During a takeover bid the Panel is the main forum for dealing with issues that arise2 Only ASIC and other public bodies can commence court proceedings during the bid period3

Unacceptable circumstances

In the current period there were 14 applications for a declaration at first instance
If the Panel finds unacceptable circumstances it may make orders to protect the rights of persons affected by the circumstances or to ensure as far as possible that the takeover proceeds as if the unacceptable circumstances had not occurred

Policy development is generally undertaken with full opportunity for public consultation The Panel publishes a response to the submissions received during consultation which addresses the main comments received on policy documents and the reasons for adopting or rejecting those comments The Panel will from now publish all responses to public consultation For more information in relation to how the Panel consults in relation to policy development see the section lsquoHow We Consultrsquo under lsquoConsultationrsquo on the Panelrsquos website
