This is a detailed specific security agreement precedent for the granting of security interests over personal property of the Grantor that is "marketable securities" including shares, debentures and interests in managed investment schemes.

The precedent includes detailed drafting notes which will guide you through preparing the document.

This precedent has been prepared following the introduction of the reforms under the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (PPSA) and takes into account the requirements under that Act.

This precedent is intended to be used in connection with any financing transaction for the granting of security interests over specific types of collateral, being personal property that is "marketable securities", including investment instruments and intermediated securities (which include, for example, share, debentures, units and interest in managed investment schemes).

It is also intended to operate as a standalone agreement (i.e. a separate facility agreement such as a loan agreement is not required). It replaces a mortgage of shares which may have been used prior to the introduction of the PPSA.
