As a preliminary step, Elanor Funds Management Limited ('EFML') as responsible entity of Elanor Investment Fund ('EIF') will undertake a selective buy-back of 12,377,083 units in EIF held by Fidante, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Challenger. Additionally, Elanor Investors Limited ('EIL') will undertake a selective reduction in respect of 12,377,083 shares in EIL held by Fidante. This 'Clawback' of securities was approved by Elanor securityholders in 2023 and will be completed in accordance with ASIC relief.

Following the Clawback, Fidante's holding in Elanor stapled securities will reduce from 20,280,481 (approximately 13.3%) to 7,903,398 (approximately 5.7%), and Elanor's total issued capital will reduce from 152,201,962 to 139,824,879 stapled securities.
