delisted following compulsory acquisition by Luxottica South Pacific Pty Limited

we understand OPSM Group paid a fully franked dividend of $0.15 per share and the dividend record date was 1 February 2005 - Luxottica South Pacific's offer price of $4.35 (for the 17.4% of the shares it did not already own) per OPSM Group share was adjusted for the dividend - shareholders therefore received A$4.20 in cash from Luxottica South Pacific for each OPSM Group share plus a A$0.15 fully franked dividend from OPSM Group for each OPSM Group share

according to the Australian Taxation Office, between 16 June 2003 and 2 September 2003 Luxottica South Pacific Pty Limited made a successful takeover offer for OPSM - shareholders who accepted the offer received $3.80 cash for each OPSM share they held - the date the shares were disposed of under the takeover was 17 July 2003 if the shareholder accepted the offer on or before that date, or the date the offer was accepted if the shareholder accepted the offer after 17 July 2003 - if the capital proceeds of $3.80 per share were more than the cost base of the share, the difference was a capital gain in 2003-04 - if $3.80 was less than the share's reduced cost base, the difference was a capital loss

name changed from OPSM Protector Limited
