(d)                                 Subject to clause 4.1(b), if after receiving further information in relation to the assets and the business of a member of the Coronado Group, Stanwell determines that a security document is required, necessary or desirable to be entered into by a member of the Coronado Group to constitute a full and complete security package in the relevant jurisdiction, Coronado must promptly procure that the relevant member of the Coronado Group enter into such security document (in a form and substance satisfactory to Stanwell, acting reasonably) on request by Stanwell and provide Stanwell with all such assistance, including by executing such documents as may reasonably be necessary or desirable, to perfect, record and register the security interests granted under that security document so as to create an enforceable security interest and lien in favour of Stanwell. Such security will form part of the Acceptable Security referred to in clause 4.1(a).

 

(e)                                  Subject to and without limiting clause 4.2(a), except for a Permitted Security, no member of the Coronado Group may grant any other security interest over any of its assets, other than:

(ii)                                  B is the value of the assets of the Coronado Group.

 

(g)                                  Where any security granted to or for the benefit of the Senior Lenders (Senior Security) secures the same property as that secured under any Acceptable Security, Stanwell agrees that it will enter into an intercreditor deed or deeds (in a form and substance satisfactory to Stanwell, acting reasonably), under which Stanwell will agree to subordinate the security interest granted to it under the Acceptable Security to the Senior Security, to the extent and for so long as the Senior Security secures Senior Debt.

 

(h)                                 Where the Acceptable Security and any security interests granted to any holder of any Subordinated Security secure the same property, Stanwell agrees that it will enter into an intercreditor deed or deeds (in a form and substance satisfactory to Stanwell, acting reasonably), under which such holder of any Subordinated Security will agree to subordinate the Subordinated Security to the Acceptable Security on terms acceptable to Stanwell (acting reasonably).

 

(i)                                     Where the Acceptable Security and any security interests granted to any member of the Coronado Group which is a holder of any Subordinated Security secure the same property, such member of the Coronado Group agrees that it will enter into an intercreditor deed or deeds (in a form and substance satisfactory to Stanwell, acting reasonably), under which such member of the Coronado Group will agree to subordinate the Subordinated Security to the Acceptable Security on terms acceptable to Stanwell (acting reasonably).

 

4.2                               Restriction on security over the Curragh Mine and access to the Reserved Area

 

(a)                                 Unless and until Coronado has provided the Acceptable Security in accordance with clause 4.1, Coronado must not:

 

(i)                                     grant any new security over the Tenements and the other real and personal property assets comprising the Curragh Mine; or

 

(ii)                                  mine in the Reserved Area, provided that Coronado may conduct Pre-stripping Activities within the Reserved Area with Stanwell’s consent, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

 

(b)                                 If despite clause 4.2(a) Coronado mines in the Reserved Area prior to providing Acceptable Security, Coronado must hold any coal that it mines from the Reserved Area (at its own risk and cost) for the benefit of Stanwell and must stockpile, transfer, deliver and dispose of that coal (at its own cost and risk) only at the direction of Stanwell.

 

4.3                               Restructure of Coronado Group

 

If prior to the date that Coronado has provided the Acceptable Security in accordance with clause 4.1 there is a disposal or other transfer of any asset or assets by a member of the Coronado Group to a Related Body Corporate or Affiliate (who is not a member of the Coronado Group):

5.                                      Minimum Curragh North Area mining

 

5.1                               Minimum production from the Curragh North Mining Lease

 

(a)                                 From 1 July 2018 until the Final Delivery Date (Remaining Period), Coronado must:

 

(i)                                     maintain the ability (including by maintaining such equipment and infrastructure as is necessary) to mine the Curragh North Mining Lease and meet its obligations under clause 5.1(a)(ii); and

 

(ii)                                  mine from the Curragh North Mining Lease:

 

(A)                               no less than [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal each Year provided that:

 

(I)                                   in the period from (and including) 1 July 2018 until 31 December 2018 Coronado must mine at least [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal from the Curragh North Mining Lease; and

 

(II)                              if the Final Delivery Date occurs on any date other than 31 December in a Year, the obligation to mine [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal from the Curragh North Mining Lease in that Year will be reduced on a pro-rata basis based on the number of days in the Year from (and including) 1 January to (and including) the Final Delivery Date; and

 

(B)                               [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal in aggregate.

 

(b)                                 If the ACSA is terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the Final Delivery Date then the obligation under clause 5.1(a) will be reduced on a pro-rata basis based on the number of days or Years from (and including) the date of termination of the ACSA to the Final Delivery Date.

 

(c)                                  Until Coronado has mined [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal in aggregate from the Curragh North Mining Lease, if for any Year of the remaining term of the ACSA, Coronado fails to mine at least [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal from the Curragh North Mining Lease (or such lesser quantity as would, when aggregated with the quantity that Coronado has mined from the Curragh North Mining Lease, equal [***] Tonnes) then Coronado will be liable for the Shortfall Rebate for that Year.

 

(d)                                 Coronado must:

 

(i)                                     deliver to Stanwell the relevant ROM Annual Rebate Coal Statement in accordance with clause 5.2(a)(ii) by no later than 31 January of the following Year; and

 

(ii)                                  pay to Stanwell any applicable Shortfall Rebate by no later than 15 February of the following Year.

 

(e)                                  If Coronado fails to mine [***] Tonnes of ROM Coal from the Curragh North Mining Lease by the end of the remaining term of the ACSA (or a pro-rata quantity if clause 5.1(b) applies), Coronado must pay to Stanwell the Remaining Period Rebate by no later than the date 45 days after the Final Delivery Date.

 

(f)                                   Payment of either or both of the Shortfall Rebate and the Remaining Period Rebate is not an exclusive remedy for Coronado’s failure to comply with clause 5.1(a). The parties agree that the calculation of Stanwell’s loss caused by any such failure will include (without double counting in respect of the Shortfall Rebate and the Remaining

Period Rebate) any diminution in the amount that would have been paid by Coronado under clause 12.5 of the ACSA had Coronado complied with clause 5.1(a).

 

(g)                                  Coronado acknowledges that a failure to comply with clause 5.1(a) or any provision of clause 5.1 will cause material damage to Stanwell, that damages may be an inadequate remedy and that Stanwell has the right to seek injunctive relief against Coronado in respect of any breach, including any deemed or threatened breach of clause 5.1(a). If injunctive relief is sought by Stanwell, Coronado will not raise any equitable defence (including laches, acquiescence, waiver or unclean hands) in response to such application.

(ii)                                  prepare and have certified as correct by a senior executive of Coronado authorised to bind Coronado, a statement (ROM Annual Rebate Coal Statement) setting out for the preceding Year:

 

(A)                               the Tonnes of ROM Coal mined by Coronado from the Curragh North Mining Lease and the Reference Coal Contract Price; and

 

(B)                               its calculation of the Shortfall Rebate in accordance with clause 5.3.

 

(b)                                 No more than once each Year, Stanwell may, at its cost, appoint a firm of accountants (that have a substantial presence in at least Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne) (Auditor) with instructions to determine the accuracy of the ROM Annual Rebate Coal Statement. Coronado must give the Auditor, on a confidential basis (including the Auditor not disclosing the information to Stanwell), all information and assistance the Auditor reasonably requires to make that determination.

 

(c)                                  By no later than the 30th day following the Final Delivery Date, Coronado must:

 

(i)                                     advise Stanwell of:

ST = [[***] - (ROM Tonnes + Tonnes excused under clause 5.5) ] x Yield

 

where:

 

ROM Tonnes means the Tonnes of ROM Coal mined by Coronado from the Curragh North Mining Lease in that Year.

 

Yield means [***].

 

(b)                                 the Tier 1 Shortfall Tonnes or T1ST as follows (unless ST = 0, in which case T1ST = 0):

where:

 

T1 Shortfall has the meaning given in clause 5.2(a)(i).

 

(c)                                  the Tier 2 Shortfall Tonnes or T2ST as the greater of zero and the amount determined as follows:

 

T2ST = ST - T1ST

 

(d)                                 the Tier 1 Shortfall Rebate or T1SR as follows:

 

T1SR  = [T1ST x AvT1TF] + the greater of zero and [T1ST x 25% x (RCCP - AvT1FP)]

 

where:

 

AvT1TF means the average of the T1 Tonnage Factors calculated for each Quarter of the relevant Year.

 

AvT1FP means the average of the Tier 1 Rebate Coal Floor Prices calculated for each Quarter of the relevant Year.

 

RCCP means the average Reference Coal Contract Price for the relevant Year.

T2 Tonnage Factor means A$0.70 escalated at the Consumer Price Index from 1 July 2008, and calculated Quarterly using the applicable Quarterly compounding factor.

 

(f)                                   the Shortfall Rebate or SR payable to Stanwell as follows:

 

SR= T1SR + T2SR

 

(g)                                  If no Rebate Coal is mined in the Tenements (as defined in the ACSA) in a Year, the RCCP under this clause 5.3 in respect of that Year will be equal to the average of the Reference Coal Contract Price over the two most recent Years for which Rebate Coal was mined in the Tenements (as defined in the ACSA).

 

5.4                               Remaining Period Rebate calculation

 

The Remaining Period Rebate will be calculated by determining:

 

(a)                                 the Remaining Period Shortfall Tonnes or RPST as the greater of zero and the amount determined as follows:

where:

 

ROM Tonnes means the Tonnes of ROM Coal mined by Coronado from the Curragh North Mining Lease during the Remaining Period.

 

AST is determined as the sum of the Shortfall Tonnes for each Year during the Remaining Period, calculated without reference to Tonnes excused under clause 5.5 and on a ROM Coal basis, being the sum of the following calculation for each Year during the Remaining Period:

 

= ([***] - ROM Tonnes)

 

Yield means [***].

 

(b)                                 the Tier 1 Remaining Period Shortfall Tonnes or T1 RPST as follows (unless RPST = 0, in which case T1 RPST = 0):

 

T1 RPST = RPT1 Shortfall, unless RPT1 Shortfall > RPST, then T1 RPST = RPST,

 

where:

 

RPT1 Shortfall has the meaning given in clause 5.2(c)(i).

 

(c)                                  the Tier 2 Remaining Period Shortfall Tonnes or T2 RPST as the greater of zero and the amount determined as follows:

 

T2 RPST =  RPST - T1 RPST

 

(d)                                 the Tier 1 Remaining Period Rebate or T1 RPR as follows:

T1 Tonnage Factor means A$0.70 escalated at 1% per annum from 1 July 2002, and calculated Quarterly using the applicable Quarterly compounding factor.

 

(e)                                  the Tier 2 Remaining Period Rebate or T2 RPR as follows:

 

T2 RPR[T2 RPST x AvT2 RPTF] + the greater of zero and [T2 RPST x 10% x (RCCP - AvT2 RPFP )]

 

where:

 

AvT2 RPFP means the average of the Tier 2 Rebate Coal Floor Prices calculated for each Quarter of the Remaining Period.

 

AvT2 RPTF means the average of the Tier 2 Tonnage Factors calculated for each Quarter of the Remaining Period.

RPR = T1 RPR + T2 RPR

 

(g)                                  If no Rebate Coal is mined in the Tenements (as defined in the ACSA) in the Remaining Period, the RCCP under this clause 5.4 in respect of the Remaining Period will be equal to the average of the Reference Coal Contract Price over the two most recent Years for which Rebate Coal was mined in the Tenements (as defined in the ACSA)

 

5.5                               Interruptions to mining

 

(a)                                 If there is an event that interrupts the mining of coal by Coronado in the Curragh North Mining Area that would be a ‘Cause Outside the Control of Wesfarmers’ according to clause 13.11 of the ACSA as if clause 13.11 applied to an interruption to the mining of coal (as opposed to the supply of coal), and Coronado follows the procedure set out in clause 13 of the ACSA, then Coronado will be relieved of its obligation under clause 5.1(a)(ii)(A) to mine ROM Coal to the extent the mining is prevented by such cause.

 

(b)                                 Clause 5.5(a) does not in any way limit Coronado’s obligations under clause 5.1(a)(ii)(B).

 

5.6                               ACSA

 

This clause 5 does not limit or cap the obligation to pay the Tonnage Rebate or Price Rebate under the ACSA and does not in any way limit clause 12.5 of the ACSA.

Curragh Mine – New Coal Supply Deed

ME_151322914_11

Page 22

 


 

(b)                                 each Project Document is assigned to the same assignee at the same time.

 

10.4                        Change of Control

 

A Change of Control of Coronado will be deemed to be an assignment of this deed for the purpose of this clause 10 and the person that acquires Control will be deemed to be the “proposed assignee”, provided that this clause 10.4 will not apply if the Change of Control of Coronado occurs as a result of the purchase and sale of shares or other securities in Coronado Holdings on the Australian Stock Exchange.

 

10.5                        Requests for consent

 

(a)                                 The party requesting any consent under this clause 10 (Party Concerned) may request consent for a proposed assignee as soon as it believes a person is likely to be an assignee (Request).

 

(b)                                 The party whose consent is required under this clause 10 (Consenting Party) must, within 30 days (or 45 days if clause 10.5(d) applies) of receiving a Request, by notice to the Party Concerned, either:

 

(i)                                     subject only to clause 10.6(b), 10.6(e) and 10.6(f), give unqualified consent; or

 

(ii)                                  refuse consent, in which case it must set out the reasons for such refusal.

 

(c)                                  If the Consenting Party fails for any reason to give the notice within such period, unqualified consent will be deemed to have been given.

 

(d)                                 If neither the proposed assignee nor any of its Holding Companies:

 

(i)                                     has a substantial investment in Australia; or

 

(ii)                                  is listed on a stock exchange either in Australia or overseas,

 

then the 30 day period referred to in clause 10.5(b) will be extended to 45 days.

 

(e)                                  To maximise the time the Consenting Party has to consider the suitability of a proposed assignee, the Party Concerned may notify the Consenting Party of a shortlist of proposed assignees as soon as the Party Concerned is satisfied that a list, acceptable to it, is available. However, a notice requesting a consent for the purpose of this clause 10.5 for a particular assignee will not be deemed to have been given until the Party Concerned by notice informs the Consenting Party that in its opinion a person named in the shortlist is likely to be an assignee.

 

10.6                        Financial Ability

 

(a)                                 In this clause 10.6 ‘Financial Ability’ means:

 

(i)                                     in relation to a party its financial ability to perform its obligations as a party to this deed; and

 

(ii)                                  where clause 10.4 applies, a party’s financial ability to perform its obligations as a party to this deed taking into account its Financial Ability and whether that is materially adversely affected by a change of ownership to the proposed assignee.

 

(b)                                 Where a party’s consent is required under this clause 10, such consent must be given unless:

 

(i)                                     the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, determines that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability; or

 

(ii)                                  where clause 10.4 applies, Stanwell, acting reasonably, determines that the party would not continue to have the Financial Ability.

(c)                                  If, acting reasonably, the Consenting Party determines that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability, and so informs, with reasons, the Party Concerned as contemplated in clause 10.5(b)(ii), the Party Concerned may then request the Consenting Party to consider whether by taking into account the ownership of the proposed assignee and the financial substance of its Holding Company (Matters) the proposed assignee thereby has the Financial Ability.

 

(d)                                 The Consenting Party must consider the request made under clause 10.6(c) within 5 days of receiving it. If, acting reasonably it determines that by taking into account either or both Matters, the proposed assignee thereby has the Financial Ability, the Consenting Party must inform the Party Concerned to that effect and give its consent to the proposed assignment. In doing so, the Consenting Party may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee.

 

(e)                                  When making a Request under clause 10.5 in respect of a particular proposed assignee, the Party Concerned may request that if the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, should determine that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability, then the Consenting Party also have regard to the Matters for that proposed assignee. In that event the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee.  Any such consent is to be given within the 30 or 45 day period as contemplated under clause 10.5. In doing so the Consenting Party must also give reasons for initially determining that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability.

 

(f)                                   Notwithstanding any other provision of clause 10 a consent for a particular potential assignee will be deemed to include a consent for any Related Body Corporate of it that becomes the actual assignee so long as the Related Body Corporate is determined by the Consenting Party in accordance with this clause 10.6 to:

 

(i)                                     meet the criteria set out in this clause; or if not

 

(ii)                                  meet the criteria set out in this clause by the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, taking into account the Matters, if the Party Concerned has requested that the Matters be considered,

 

and if clause 10.6(f)(ii) applies, the Consenting Party may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee.

 

10.7                        Deemed notice

 

The Parties agree that any notice referred to in this clause 10 will be deemed to have been given and received if:

 

(a)                                 a similar notice has been given pursuant to the equivalent provision to this clause 10 in another Project Document; and

 

(b)                                 that notice refers to this deed.

(a)              This Agreement will have effect from the Commencement Date, and unless this Agreement is terminated earlier in accordance with its terms this Agreement ends on the date occurring after the Final Delivery Date when each Party has complied with its obligations and satisfied all of its liabilities under this Agreement.

 

(b)              From four Years prior to the expected Final Delivery Date, either Party may request the other Party to discuss the possibility of extending this Agreement to cover additional tonnages of Coal. In such case the Parties will discuss such possibility but, subject to Clause 2.2(c)(ii) neither Party shall be obliged to agree to any such extension.

 

(c)               If as at 31 December 2038, the Outstanding Value of the SRA is greater than zero, then:

 

(i)                 Coronado shall pay to Stanwell the Cash Value of the SRA as at 31 December 2038 by no later than 31 January 2039; and

Source of Coal and Substitute Coal

(a)              Clause 3.1(b) of the ACSA, which allows Coronado to deliver Substitute Coal for use in the Power Station only, is to apply as though and be amended to account for Stanwell’s right to otherwise use or sell Coal under the New CSA such that Coronado is permitted to make any deliveries as Substitute Coal, whether for use in the Power Station or otherwise.

 

(b)              If the Substitute Coal is not to be used in the Power Station:

 

(i)                  the test burn/suitability requirements in Clause 3.2 will not apply to that Coal; and

 

(ii)               the coal quality terms, including the limiting specifications, will apply to that Coal.

 

(c)               Clauses 3.4 through 3.8 are to apply as though and be adjusted to reflect that Stanwell must use best endeavours to obtain rail arrangements for the transport of the Substitute Coal from the relevant mine to its destination and that the adjustment on rail freight will be compared on the same basis as in Clause 3.6 (i.e. regardless of its destination, the parties will compare and pay the difference for the cost of transport from the Curragh Mine to the Stanwell Power Station as against the cost of transport from the relevant mine to the Stanwell Power Station).

 

(d)              A consequential change applies in Clause 6 regarding the delivery point of Substitute Coal where freight is arranged by Coronado.

 

(e)               Clause 3.4(a) is amended by deleting the words ‘or the Curragh North Mine’.

(a)              nominate:

 

(i)                 the Annual Contract Tonnage for that Year which must be between [***] Tonnes Equivalent and [***] Tonnes Equivalent (and pro rata for a part Year), and if no such nomination is made for any Year, Stanwell shall be deemed to have nominated 2 million Tonnes Equivalent;

 

(ii)             in respect of any Month during that Year, a quantity of the Annual Contract Tonnage in Tonnes Equivalent of up to one twelfth of the Annual Contract Tonnage for any Month for which Stanwell elects to receive Cash in Lieu; and

provided that the nomination must not cause the Outstanding Value of the SRA to be less than zero;

 

(b)              confirm any additional Tonnes that have been postponed in accordance with Clause 11.4(c), Clause 12.4(c) or Clause 15 and that Coronado is obliged to deliver in that Year pursuant to this Agreement;

 

(c)               propose the Quarterly Tonnage for each Quarter of that Year; and

December of that Year, Stanwell may prior to 31 December revise its nomination, by an amount equal to the missed deliveries, provided that the revised nomination does not exceed a total maximum of [***] million Tonnes Equivalent. That revised nomination will be Stanwell’s nomination for the purposes of Clause 4.1(a).

 

For the purposes of calculating the Cash Value of the SRA, where the Agreement will terminate due to Coronado’s default, Stanwell may (but is not obliged to) give a revised nomination under this Clause 4.1, including the non-binding nominations for each Year of the Supply Term.

 

If the Supply Commencement Date occurs before the ACSA Final Delivery Date, in respect of each Month from the Supply Commencement Date until the Month in which the ACSA Final Delivery Date occurs, Stanwell must nominate one twelfth of the Annual Contract Tonnage (pro rata for any part Month) as Cash in Lieu.

 

4.2            Notwithstanding Clause 4.1, either Coronado or Stanwell may at any time propose any Annual Contract Tonnage and Quarterly Tonnage for the next Year. The other Party shall consider any such proposal but shall be under no obligation to accept the same.

(b)              Clause 5.8 of the ACSA is deleted and replaced as Clause 4.8 as follows:

 

Obligation to deliver and accept deliveries

Binding Terms Sheet for New Coal Supply Agreement

 

Annexure A — SRA Value Schedule

 

1.                                      Introduction

 

1.1                               This Agreement includes a number of items which change from time to time in accordance with the Model Calculations contained in this Annexure A. The purpose of these Model Calculations is to accommodate the flexibility in this Agreement (including as to the Supply Commencement Date, Contract Price per GJ, Monthly Tonnage and Cash in Lieu) while ensuring that in all circumstances Stanwell receives the Value of the SRA. The Value of the SRA is escalated at the Discount Rate from the Valuation Date, and is acquitted by the payment by Coronado of Monthly Cash Flows as determined by the Model Calculations, and if the Outstanding Value of the SRA is greater than zero as at the 31 December 2038, by payment by Coronado of the Termination Payment.

 

1.2                               From time to time as required for the purposes of this Agreement prior to the Supply Commencement Date, and then at the end of each Month during the Supply Term, the Model Calculations will be made in accordance with their terms. The Model Calculations use Fixed Inputs, Variable Elements and the output of other Model Calculations.

 

1.3                               The Model Calculations determine (amongst other things) certain payments to be made under this Agreement, including that, in relation to each Month during the Supply Term:

 

(a)                                 Stanwell shall pay to Coronado the Netback Amount for the aggregate quantities of Coal delivered in that Month. The Netback Amount for the Month is to be determined as:

 

Netback Amount = [Netback Price x Monthly Tonnage] + [(Invoice Price x Tonnes Delivered as described in Clause 10.2) - (Contract Price per Tonne x Monthly Tonnage)]

 

(b)                                 Coronado shall pay to Stanwell the Derived Amount and the Cash in Lieu for the Month.

 

1.4                               The Parties have agreed the form of an Excel spreadsheet which contains the Model Calculations as attached to the email sent from Tim Peirce, Coronado to Natalie Gordon, Stanwell on 14 August 2018 at approximately 11.15 am, and which is attached to this Annexure A. The Excel spreadsheet also includes rows which are to be used for the administration of the this Agreement by the Parties, but which are not, and do not affect, Fixed Inputs, Variable Elements or Model Calculations for the purposes of this Annexure A.

 

1.5                               To the extent of any inconsistency, the documents will be interpreted in the following order of precedence:

 

(a)                                 this Agreement, including this Annexure A; and

 

(b)                                 the Excel spreadsheet.

 

1.6                               In preparing the full form of this Agreement in accordance with clause 3.2 of the Deed, the Parties will use their best endeavours to prepare and agree the form of worked examples of the Excel spreadsheet containing the Model Calculations, provided that the worked examples will be provided for illustrative purposes only and to the extent of any inconsistency between the worked examples and this Agreement (including this Annexure A) or the Excel spreadsheet, this Agreement (including this Annexure A) and the Excel spreadsheet will prevail (subject to item 1.5 above).

 

1.7                               Each Party acknowledges that the Model Calculations do not and will not take account of either Party’s tax position.

 

1.8                               In this Annexure A, a reference to a Clause is a reference to a Clause in the main body of this Agreement.

ME_151783656_13

 Page 46

 


 

·                                          if the termination is due to Coronado’s default, the Termination Payment will be:

 

·                                          the Cash Value of the SRA; plus

·                                          the Top-Up Amount; and

 

·                                          if the termination is for any other reason or if as at 31 December 2038, the Outstanding Value of the SRA is greater than zero, the Termination Payment will be the Cash Value of the SRA.

The Cash Value of the SRA is calculated as:

 

= Outstanding Value of the SRA m / Discount Factor m

 

with each such value being calculated as at the end of the Month in which the date of termination occurs.

 

Calculation of Top-Up Amount

 

The Top-Up Amount is determined by:

 Page 47

 


 

Input

 

Value of Fixed Input

 

 

=A$7 + ((A$Forecast Price less Port Costs less A$100) x 12.5%)

 

if the A$Forecast Price less Port Costs is greater than A$150/Tonne:

·                  if the Revised Netback Price is less than or equal to the Netback Price for the Month, the Top-Up Amount (Month) for the Month is zero; and

 

·                  if the Revised Netback Price is greater than the Netback Price for the Month, the Top-Up Amount (Month) for the Month is determined as:

 

= [(Revised Netback Price - Netback Price) x Monthly Tonnage x Discount Factor (Termination)].

Top-Up Amount

 

the sum of each Top-Up Amount (Month).

 

The Forecast Price and the FX Rate are the Forecast Indices. If at any time on and from the Valuation Date, a Forecast Index is no longer published or the basis of calculation of the Forecast Index materially changes, the Forecast Index will be replaced with a replacement index that best represents the characteristics of the relevant Forecast Index as at the Valuation Date. In order to determine whether a Forecast Index is no longer published or the basis of calculation of the Forecast Index materially changes and, if so, the replacement index:

 

·                                          Either Party may notify the other if it considers that a Forecast Index is no longer published or the basis of calculation of the Forecast Index has materially changed. If the Parties do not agree on whether a Forecast Index is no longer published or the basis of calculation of the Forecast Index has materially changed within 30 days of such notice, Clause 16.8 will apply.

·                                          If the Parties agree or it is determined that a Forecast Index is no longer published or the basis of calculation of the Forecast Index has materially changed, the Parties will seek to agree upon a replacement Forecast Index. If the Parties have not agreed on a replacement within 30 days of the agreement or determination, Stanwell will nominate a relevant replacement Forecast Index to Coronado.

·                                          If Coronado does not agree with the replacement Forecast Index provided by Stanwell, Clause 16.8 will apply.

·                                          If a replacement Forecast Index is determined in circumstances where Coronado is in default or this Agreement has been terminated due to Coronado’s default and the Forecast Index that is finally agreed or determined is the replacement Forecast Index nominated by Stanwell, then Coronado must bear the cost of the Expert and any consultant or advisors engaged by the Expert and Stanwell’ legal and other costs related to the determination.

 

ME_151783656_13

 Page 48

 


 

If a Forecast Index does not, as at the date of termination, publish any of the input for the Forecast Index beyond a date such that it does not include all remaining Months of the Supply Term as required to determine the Revised Netback Price, the Forecast Index for the Months in which no input is published will be determined as:

 

·                                          in relation to the Forecast Price, the forecast published for the date which is furthest in the future from the date of termination (Last Published Date) multiplied by the Forecast Escalation Rate where the Forecast Escalate Rate means:

 

means, for a Month: (1 + 0.02) ^ (Forecast Days / 365)

 

where Forecast Days means, for a Month, the number of days from (and excluding) the Last Published Date until (and including) the last day of the relevant Month; and

 

·                                          in relation to the FX Rate, the FX Rate published for the date which is furthest in the future from the date of termination.

 

6.                                      Maintenance of agreed Value of the SRA and model

 

For the purposes of administration, Coronado must prepare the Model Calculations in accordance with this Annexure A each Month make it available to Stanwell in the same format as the agreed Excel spreadsheet (or as otherwise agreed).

19.3                        Notwithstanding Clause 19.2, Wesfarmers may encumber its rights to the Tenements so long as the encumbrancee undertakes in a form reasonably satisfactory to Stanwell only to dispose of such rights together with an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 19.1.

 

Assignment by Stanwell

 

19.4                        Stanwell may not assign all or any part of its rights or obligations under this Agreement unless:

 

(a)                                 Wesfarmers has given its prior consent; and

 

(b)                                 each Project Document is assigned to the same assignee at the same time.

 

Change of Control

 

19.5                        A Change of Control of Wesfarmers will be deemed to be an assignment of this Agreement for the purpose of this Clause 19 and the person that acquires Control will be deemed to be the “proposed assignee”, provided that this Clause 19.5 will not apply if the Change of Control of Wesfarmers occurs as a result of the purchase and sale of shares or other securities in Coronado Holdings on the Australian Stock Exchange.

 

Requests for consent

 

19.6

 

(a)                                 The Party requesting any consent under this Clause 19 (“Party Concerned”) may request consent for a proposed assignee as soon as it believes a person is likely to be an assignee (“Request”).

 

(b)                                 The Party whose consent is required under this Clause 19 (“Consenting Party”) must, within 30 days (or 45 days if Clause 19.6(d) applies) of receiving a Request, by notice to the Party Concerned, either:

 

(i)                                    subject only to Clause 19.7(b), 19.7(d) and 19.7(e), give unqualified consent; or

 

(ii)                                refuse consent, in which case it must set out the reasons for such refusal.

 

(c)                                  If the Consenting Party fails for any reason to give the notice within such period, unqualified consent will be deemed to have been given.

 

(d)                                 If neither the proposed assignee nor any of its Holding Companies:

 

(i)                                    has a substantial investment in Australia, or

 

(ii)                                is listed on a stock exchange either in Australia or overseas,

 

then the 30 day period referred to in Clause 19.6(b) will be extended to 45 days.

 

(e)                                  To maximise the time the Consenting Party has to consider the suitability of a proposed assignee, the Party Concerned may notify the Consenting Party of a shortlist of proposed assignees as soon as the Party Concerned is satisfied that a list, acceptable to it, is available. However, a notice requesting a consent for the purpose of this Clause 19.6 for a particular assignee will not be deemed to have been given until the Party Concerned by notice informs the Consenting Party that in its opinion a person named in the shortlist is likely to be an assignee.

Financial Ability

 

19.7                        (a)           In this Clause 19.7 “Financial Ability” means:

 

(i)                                    in relation to a party its financial ability to perform its obligations as a party to this Agreement; and

 

(ii)                                where Clause 19.5 applies, a Party’s financial ability to perform its obligations as a party to this Agreement taking into account its Financial Ability and whether that is materially adversely affected by a change of ownership to the proposed assignee.

 

(b)                                 Where a Party’s consent is required under this Clause 19, such consent must be given unless:

 

(i)                                    the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, determines that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability; or

 

(ii)                                where Clause 19.5 applies, Stanwell, acting reasonably, determines that the Party would not continue to have the Financial Ability.

 

(c)

 

(i)                                    If, acting reasonably, the Consenting Party determines that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability, and so informs, with reasons, the Party Concerned as contemplated in Clause 19.6 (b)(ii), the Party Concerned may then request the Consenting Party to consider whether by taking into account the ownership of the proposed assignee and the financial substance of its Holding Company (“Matters”) the proposed assignee thereby has the Financial Ability.

 

(ii)                                The Consenting Party must consider the request made under Clause 19.7(c)(i) within 5 days of receiving it. If, acting reasonably it determines that by taking into account either or both Matters, the proposed assignee thereby has the Financial Ability, the Consenting Party must inform the Party Concerned to that effect and give its consent to the proposed assignment. In doing so, the Consenting Party may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee.

 

(d)

 

(i)                                    When making a Request under Clause 19.6 in respect of a particular proposed assignee, the Party Concerned may request that if the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, should determine that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability, then the Consenting Party also have regard to the Matters for that proposed assignee.

 

(ii)                                In that event the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee. Any such consent is to be given within the 30 or 45 day period as contemplated under Clause 19.6. In doing so the Consenting Party must also give reasons for initially determining that the proposed assignee does not have the Financial Ability.

 

(e)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision of Clause 19 a consent for a particular potential assignee will be deemed to include a consent for any Related Body Corporate of it that becomes the actual assignee so

long as the Related Body Corporate is determined by the Consenting Party in accordance with this Clause 19.7 to:

 

(i)                                    meet the criteria set out in this Clause; or if not

 

(ii)                                meet the criteria set out in this Clause by the Consenting Party, acting reasonably, taking into account the Matters, if the Party Concerned has requested that the Matters be considered,

 

and if Clause 19.7(e)(ii) applies, the Consenting Party may give qualified consent requiring reasonable contractual protections, such as a Holding Company guarantee.

 

Deemed notice

 

19.8                        The Parties agree that any notice referred to in this Clause 19 will be deemed to have been given and received if:

 

(a)                                 a similar notice has been given pursuant to the equivalent provision to this Clause 19 in another Project Document; and

 

(b)                                 that notice refers to this Agreement.

 

(g)                                  Clause 27.5 of the ACSA is deleted and replaced as follows:

 

‘If a default is not cured within the applicable cure period described in Clause 27.3, the non-defaulting Party may, subject to:

 

(a)                                 giving 30 days’ notice to the defaulting Party stating its intention to do so if the default is not cured (and the default is not cured within that notice period) provided that only 15 days’ notice shall be required for a Financial Default under Clause 27.1(b)(i) (and provided that any notice given pursuant to this Clause shall state the effective date of such termination); and

 

(b)                                 if the Event of Default is a Non-Financial Default, that default having a material adverse effect on the rights of the non-defaulting Party under this Agreement,

 

terminate this Agreement without prejudice to any of its other rights in this Agreement, any right to sue the defaulting Party for damages for that default or the exercise of all other available legal or equitable remedies, including suing for specific performance, injunctive relief or such other orders as it deems appropriate.’
