(c) If you instruct us to remit the Payment in a currency other than Australian Dollars, the exchange rate will be set by the Service Provider on or around the payment date. The currency exchange rate can fluctuate and may impact the final foreign currency proceeds you receive for your Payment. The Service Provider, as a foreign exchange market maker, will set the rate based on the current market and by reference to a tiered foreign exchange spread depending on the value of the transaction, as per the table below. These rates will fluctuate from time to time and from transaction to transaction.

The spread is generally expected to be as follows:

​Transaction Value ​USD Spread (basis points)
​Less than $100,000 ​250
​$100,000 - $200,000 ​200
​$200,000 - $500,000 ​150
​$500,000 - $1,000,000 ​80

(f)  Please note that you can only provide an Election for Payments for a single Company in whose Plan you are participant .

(g) If you wish to use this Service for a Payment that has a record date, then your Election must be received by us on or before the record date for that Payment.

If the dividend and/ or distribution Payment is for less than the Minimum Amount, then the Service will not be provided for that Payment and it will be paid in the default paying currency of your company. However, your Election to use the Service will continue to apply for future Payments from the Company that you have provided an Election for (subject to the Minimum Amount), until amended or revoked by you.  Please note that the Minimum Amount threshold does not apply if your Payment is in respect of proceeds from the sale of your Plan securities.

You will need to update your details in accordance with our standard procedures before your Election to use the Service can be applied to any Payment.
