TERMINATION OF SCA UNLISTED RETAIL FUND 1  

SURF 1 (SURF 1 or Fund) was established as a closed end fund with a nominal 5-year term.

As outlined in the PDS, and in accordance with the Fund’s Constitution and with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), the Responsible Entity may decide to wind up the Fund at any time (such a decision being a Termination Event). SURF 1 has been wound up.

WHAT TERMINATION OF THE FUND MEANS FOR YOU?

As result of the decision to wind up the Fund, the proceeds from the sale of SURF 1’s assets, less all of the Fund’s liabilities (Net Proceeds), will be distributed to members in the proportion to the number of SURF 1 Units held.  Below is the expected timeframe for the distribution of the Net Proceeds:

1. Payment of expenses associated with the sales – 28 January 2020 – Complete
2. Payment of January Distribution (including capital return) of $1.021 – 28 January 2020 – Complete
3. Further Interim Distribution to Unitholders of $0.135 – 21 April 2020 – Complete
4. Payment of fees to Fund Manager – June 2020 – Complete
5. Completion of the Fund accounts for year ended June 2020 – Complete
6. Final residual distribution to Unitholders – October 2020 – Complete

SURF 1 was wound up on 16 October 2020.

The Constitution provides that all Units in the Fund will be cancelled and taken to be redeemed from the date the final distribution of the Net Proceeds is made.

Taxation

Distributions

In respect of each income tax year, you will be required to include your share of the net income of the SURF 1 in your assessable income for tax purposes. SCA Property Group will provide unitholders with Annual Taxation Statements by August of each year.

You should not complete your tax return for the prior tax year before you receive this Annual Taxation Statement.

Distributions from SURF1 may include various components, the tax treatment of which may differ. If you are an Australian tax resident and an individual, distributions from SURF 1 received after June will generally need to be included in your tax return for the preceding tax year.

Annual Taxation Statement

If you are an Australian tax resident and an individual you will receive an Annual Taxation Statement by August each year. Amounts in this Annual Taxation Statement will generally need to be included in your tax return for the preceding taxation year.

Resident withholding tax deductions

If you are classified as an Australian tax resident for Australian tax purposes you will have resident withholding tax deducted at the rate of 47% on the full amount of your future distributions unless you provide your Tax File Number (TFN) or Australian Business Number (ABN).

TFN withholding tax is a refundable credit. That is, if the credit exceeds the tax liability you would otherwise have, it will be refunded to you by the Australian Taxation Office. For further information you should contact your own tax advisor.
