A liability incurred by Party B arising under or in connection with this Agreement is limited to and can be enforced against Party B only to the extent to which it can be satisfied out of the assets of the Securitisation Fund which are available to satisfy the right of Party B to be exonerated or indemnified for the liability. This limitation of Party B's liability applies despite any other provision of this Agreement other than section 15(c) and extends to all liabilities and obligations of Party B in any way connected with any representation, warranty, conduct, omission, agreement or transaction related to this Agreement. 40 (b) The parties other than Party B may not sue Party B in any capacity other than as trustee of the Securitisation Fund or seek the appointment of a receiver (except in relation to the assets of the Securitisation Fund), or a liquidator, an administrator or any similar person to Party B or prove in any liquidation, administration or arrangement of or affecting Party B (except in relation to the assets of the Securitisation Fund). (c) The provisions of this Section 15 shall not apply to any obligation or liability of Party B to the extent that it is not satisfied because under the Master Trust Deed or any other Transaction Document or by operation of law there is a reduction in the extent of Party B's indemnification or exoneration out of the assets of the Securitisation Fund, as a result of Party B's fraud, negligence or Wilful Default. (d) It is acknowledged that the Manager is responsible under the Master Trust Deed for performing a variety of obligations relating to the Securitisation Fund, including under this Agreement. No act or omission of Party B (including any related failure to satisfy its obligations or breach of a representation or warranty under this Agreement) will be considered fraud, negligence or Wilful Default of Party B for the purpose of paragraph (c) of this Section 15 to the extent to which the act or omission was caused or contributed to by any failure by the Manager or any other person to fulfil its obligations relating to the Securitisation Fund or by any other act or omission of the Manager or any other person. (e) Party B is not obliged to do or refrain from doing anything under this Agreement (including incurring any liability) unless Party B's liability is limited in the same manner as set out in paragraphs (b) to (d) of this Section 15. (f) No attorney, agent, receiver or receiver and manager appointed in accordance with this Agreement has authority to act on behalf of Party B in a way which exposes Party B to any personal liability and no act or omission of any such person will be considered fraud, negligence or Wilful Default of Party B for the purpose of paragraph (c) of this Section 15. (g) Subject to the provisions related to deemed receipt of notices and other communications under this Agreement, Party B will only be considered to have knowledge or awareness of, or notice of, any thing, or grounds to believe any thing, by virtue of the officers of Party B having day to day responsibility for the administration or management of Party B's obligations in relation to the Securitisation Fund having actual knowledge, actual awareness or actual notice of that thing, or grounds or reason to believe that thing (and similar references will be interpreted in this way). In addition, notice, knowledge or awareness of an Event of Default or other default (howsoever described) means notice, knowledge or awareness of the occurrence of the events or circumstances constituting that Event of Default or other default (as the case may be). (h) In this Agreement, except where expressly provided to the contrary: (i) a reference to Party B is a reference to Party B in its capacity as trustee of the Securitisation Fund only, and in no other capacity; and 41 (ii) a reference to the undertaking, assets, business, money or any other thing of or in relation to Party B is a reference to such undertaking, assets, business, money or other thing of or in relation to Party B only in its capacity as trustee of the Securitisation Fund, and in no other capacity. (i) The provision of this Section 15: (i) are paramount and apply regardless of any other provision of this Agreement or any other instrument, even a provision which seeks to apply regardless of any other provision; (ii) survive and endure beyond any termination of this Agreement for any reason; and (iii) are not severable from this Agreement. 16. Replacement Swap Transaction (a) If any Transaction under this Agreement is terminated, Party B must, subject to paragraph (b), at the direction of the Manager, enter into one or more swaps which replace those Transactions (collectively a "REPLACEMENT SWAP TRANSACTION") but only on the following conditions: (i) the amount payable under Section 6(e) (if any) by Party B to Party A upon termination of any Transactions will be paid in full when due in accordance with the Supplementary Bond Terms Notice and this Agreement; (ii) the Rating Agencies confirm that the Replacement Swap Transaction will not cause a reduction or withdrawal of the ratings of the Notes; and (iii) the liability of Party B under the Replacement Swap Transaction is limited to at least the same extent that its liability is limited under this Agreement. (b) If the conditions in Section 16(a) are satisfied, Party B must, provided it is satisfied with the terms of the Replacement Swap Transaction, acting reasonably and considering the interests of Class A Noteholders, at the direction of the Manager, enter into the Replacement Swap Transaction and if it does it must direct the Replacement Swap Transaction provider to pay any upfront premium to enter into the Replacement Swap Transaction due to Party B directly to Party A in satisfaction of and to the extent of Party B's obligation to pay an amount to Party A as referred to in Section 16(a)(i) and to the extent that such premium is not greater than or equal to the amount referred to in Section 16(a)(i), the balance must be satisfied by Party B as an Expense of the Securitisation Fund. (c) If Party B enters into a Replacement Swap Transaction pursuant to paragraph (a), Party B must direct Party A to pay any amount payable under Section 6(e) by Party A to Party B on termination of this Agreement or any Transaction directly to the Replacement Swap Transaction provider as payment of and to the extent of any premium payable by Party B to enter into the Replacement Swap Transaction, in satisfaction of and to the extent of Party A's obligation to pay that part of the amount payable under Section 6(e) to Party B. 17. SEGREGATION The liability of Party B under this Agreement is several and is separate in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction. The failure of Party B to perform its obligations in respect of any Relevant Swap Transaction does not release Party B from its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Relevant Swap Transaction in respect of any other Class A Notes issued by Party B. Nothing in this Agreement affects the respective priority rankings of claims against the Charged Property under the Security Trust Deed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement have effect separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction and are enforceable by or against Party B as though a separate agreement applied between Party A, Party B and the Manager for each Relevant Swap Transaction, so that (among other things): 42 (i) this Agreement together with each Confirmation relating to a Relevant Swap Transaction will form a single separate agreement between Party A, Party B and the Manager and references to the respective obligations (including references to payment obligations generally and in the context of provisions for the netting of payments and the calculation of amounts due on early termination) of Party A, Party B and the Manager shall be construed accordingly as a several reference to each mutual set of obligations arising under each such separate agreement between Party A, Party B and the Manager; (ii) representations made and agreements entered into by the parties under this Agreement are made and entered separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction and may be enforced separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction; (iii) rights of termination, and obligations and entitlements consequent upon termination, only accrue to Party A against Party B separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction, and only accrue to Party B against Party A separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction; and (iv) the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event in respect of a Relevant Swap Transaction does not in itself constitute an Event of Default or Termination Event in respect of any other Relevant Swap Transaction." (u) TELEPHONE RECORDING: Each party: (i) consents to the recording of the telephone conversations of trading and marketing personnel of that party and its Affiliates in connection with this Agreement or any potential transaction; and (ii) agrees to obtain any necessary consent of, and give notice of such recording to, such personnel of it and its Affiliates; and (iii) will provide transcripts of such recordings (if any) upon reasonable request by another party; and (iv) acknowledges that such recordings and transcripts can be used as evidence by another party in any dispute between them. (v) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARTIES: Each party will be deemed to represent to the other parties on the date on which it enters into a Transaction that (absent a written agreement between the parties that expressly imposes affirmative obligations to the contrary for the Transaction): (i) NON-RELIANCE. It is acting for its own account (or, in the case of Party B, as trustee of the Securitisation Fund), and it has made its own independent decisions to enter into that Transaction and as to whether that Transaction is appropriate or proper for it based upon its own judgment and in the case of Party B, on the judgment of the Manager, and upon advice from such advisers as it has deemed necessary. It is not relying on any communication (written or oral) of the other party as investment advice or as a recommendation to enter into that Transaction; it being understood that information and explanations related to the terms and conditions of a Transaction shall not be considered investment advice or a recommendation to enter into that Transaction. No communication (written or oral) received from the other party shall be deemed to be an assurance or guarantee as to the expected results of that Transaction. 43 (ii) ASSESSMENT AND UNDERSTANDING. It is capable of assessing the merits of and understanding (on its own behalf or through independent professional advice), and understands and accepts, the terms, conditions and risks of that Transaction. It is also capable of assuming, and assumes, the risks of that Transaction. (iii) STATUS OF PARTIES. The other party is not acting as a fiduciary for or as an adviser to it in respect of that Transaction. (w) APPOINTMENT OF MANAGER: Party A acknowledges that under the Master Trust Deed Party B has appointed the Manager as manager of the Securitisation Fund with the powers set out in and upon and subject to the terms of, the Master Trust Deed. Accordingly, subject to the terms of the Master Trust Deed, the Manager: (i) may arrange, enter into, and monitor Transactions, execute Confirmations and exercise all other rights and powers of Party B under this Agreement; and (ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Manager shall issue and receive, on behalf of Party B all notices, Confirmations, certificates and other communications to or by Party A under this Agreement. Subject to Section 15, Party B agrees that it is bound by anything the Manager does under this Part 5(w). (x) RATINGS DOWNGRADE: (i) In the event that the unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations of Party A (or any applicable assignee or its guarantor) shall have (1) a long term credit rating of less than AA- by S&P and a short-term credit rating of less than A-1+ by S&P, or (2) a long term credit rating of less than A2 by Moody's and a short term credit rating of less than P-1 by Moody's, or (3) a long term credit rating of less than BBB+ by Fitch Ratings and a short term credit rating of less than F2 by Fitch Ratings and Party B does not receive written affirmation of the then current rating of the Notes, then Party A shall immediately notify the Rating Agencies and Party B and within 5 Local Business Days (or 30 Local Business Days if the downgrade is to no less than A- (S&P long term) and A-1 (S&P short term) and A3 (Moody's long term) and A+ (Fitch long term) and F1 (Fitch short term)) of such downgrade (unless during this period, Party A and Party B receive written confirmation from S&P, Fitch Ratings and Moody's that such downgrade would not result in the Notes either being downgraded or placed under review for possible downgrade) at its cost either: (A) put in place an appropriate mark-to-market collateral agreement (consisting of either cash or securities) which is based either on S&P's New Interest Rate and Currency Swap Criteria published in January 1999 (as may be amended from time to time), Fitch Ratings' Counterparty Risk in Structured Finance Transactions: Swap Criteria published on 13 September 2004 (as amended from time to time) or on any other agreement reached between the parties (whichever of these has the highest ratings criteria), in support of its obligations under the Agreement, PROVIDED that Party A and Party B receive prior written confirmation from S&P, Fitch Ratings and Moody's that the rating assigned to the Notes then outstanding by S&P, Fitch Ratings and Moody's is not adversely affected by the downgrade following such collateral arrangements being put in place and PROVIDED FURTHER that this Part 5(x)(i)(A) will not apply where the long term credit rating falls to BBB+ (or less) by Fitch Ratings and the short term credit rating falls to F2 (or less) by Fitch Ratings; 44 (B) transfer all its rights and obligations with respect to this Agreement to a replacement third party whose unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations have (1) a long term credit rating of at least AA- by S&P and a short-term credit rating of at least A-1+ by S&P, or (2) a long term credit rating of at least A2 by Moody's and a short term credit rating of at least P-1 by Moody's, or (3) a long term credit rating of at least A+ by Fitch Ratings and a short term credit rating of at least F1 by Fitch Ratings; (C) procure that its obligations with respect to this Agreement are guaranteed by a third party resident outside Australia whose unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations have (1) a long term credit rating of at least AA- by S&P and a short-term credit rating of at least A-1+ by S&P, or (2) a long term credit rating of at least A2 by Moody's and a short term credit rating of at least P-1 by Moody's, or (3) a long term credit rating of at least A+ by Fitch Ratings and a short term credit rating of at least F1 by Fitch Ratings; or (D) enter into such other arrangements which each Rating Agency has confirmed will result in there not being a withdrawal or downgrade of any credit rating assigned by it to the Notes. (ii) Where Party A transfers its rights and obligations to a replacement counterparty in accordance with Part 5(x)(i)(B), the Trustee, at the direction of the Manager, and each other party to this Agreement shall do all things reasonably necessary at the cost of Party A to novate the relevant rights and obligations to the replacement counterparty. (iii) If, at any time, Party A's obligations under this Agreement are transferred in accordance with Part 5(x)(i)(B), Party A shall be immediately entitled to any collateral which it has provided under any collateral agreement contemplated by Part 5(x)(i)(A) (less any amount withdrawn in accordance with Part 5(x)(iv)). (iv) Party B may only make withdrawals from any account into which collateral is provided by Party A (the COLLATERAL ACCOUNT) if directed to do so by the Manager and then only for the purpose of: (A) transferring obligations under this Agreement in accordance with Part 5(x)(i)(B) (including the costs of obtaining a replacement counterparty); (B) refunding to Party A any excess in the amount of any collateral deposited to the Collateral Account over the amount Party A is required to maintain under any collateral agreement contemplated by Part 5(x)(i)(A); (C) withdrawing any amount which has been incorrectly deposited into the Collateral Account; (D) paying bank accounts debit tax or other equivalent Taxes payable in respect of the Collateral Account; (E) funding the amount of any payment due to be made by Party A under this Agreement following the failure by Party A to make that payment; or (F) making interest payments to Party A as contemplated by Part 5(x)(v). 45 The Manager must direct Party B to, and Party B must, refund or pay to Party A the amount of any payment which may be made to Party A under (B), (C) or (F) above as soon as such refund or payment is possible. (v) All interest on the Collateral Account will accrue and be payable monthly to Party A providing the amount deposited to the Collateral Account is not less than the amount Party A is required to maintain under the collateral agreement contemplated by Part 5(x)(i)(A). (y) EXCHANGE CONTROLS Section 5(b)(i) (ILLEGALITY) is amended by adding the following paragraph at the end: "this sub paragraph (i) does not apply to the imposition by the Australian government or any agency of the Australian government of any exchange control restrictions or prohibitions ("EXCHANGE CONTROLS"). For the avoidance of doubt: (A) exchange controls do not constitute an Illegality or other Termination Event or an Event of Default under this Agreement, and do not entitle a party to terminate a Transaction or otherwise refuse to make any payments it is obliged to make under a Transaction: and (B) if and for so long as exchange controls are imposed, delivery by either party of Australian dollar amounts required to be paid by it under any relevant Confirmation to the bank account in Australia notified in writing by a party (the "PAYER") to the other party from time to time specified in that Confirmation will constitute proper payment of those amounts by that other party and the payer's obligations under this Agreement will be unaffected by any such exchange controls." (z) TRANSFER A new paragraph (c) is added to Section 7 as follows: "a party may make such a transfer in accordance with this Agreement or the Security Trust Deed". and the full-stop at the end of paragraph (b) is replaced with "; and" (aa) PARTY B'S PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS Party B irrevocably authorises and instructs Party A to make payment of: (i) the Initial Exchange Amount (as defined in a Confirmation) payable by Party A under a currency swap transaction by paying that amount direct to the account notified in writing by Party B to Party A for that purpose; and (ii) any other amount due from Party A to Party B under this Agreement by paying that amount direct to the relevant Paying Agent to the account notified in writing by the relevant Paying Agent to Party A for that purpose. Party A is entitled to rely on any such notice. (bb) NO AMENDMENT (i) Each of Party B and the Manager agrees that it will not consent to any amendment to any provision in any Transaction Document dealing with the ranking, priority or entitlement of Party A in respect of any security or moneys without the prior written consent of Party A. 46 (ii) No amendment may be made to this agreement unless each of S&P, Moody's and Fitch Ratings have confirmed in writing that such proposed amendment will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then rating of any outstanding Notes. (cc) REGULATION AB FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE (i) Party A acknowledges that for so long as there are reporting obligations with respect to any Transaction under this Agreement under Regulation AB, the Manager is required under Regulation AB to disclose certain information set forth in Regulation AB regarding Party A or its group of affiliated entities, if applicable, depending on the aggregate significance percentage of this Agreement and any other derivative contracts between Party A or its group of affiliated entities, if applicable, and Party B, as calculated from time to time in accordance with Item 1115 of Regulation AB. (ii) If the Manger determines, reasonably and in good faith, that the significance percentage of this Agreement is or has become: (A) 10% or more; or (B) 20% or more, then on any Local Business Day after the date of such determination, Party B or the Manager may request Party A to provide the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure. (iii) Party A, at its own expense, shall within four Local Business Days after receipt of a Swap Financial Disclosure Request provide the Manager with the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure.
