an agent for, and does not owe any fiduciary obligations to, any Beneficiary or Security Provider, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

responsible or liable for, or to see the proper use or application of, any financial accommodation or other consideration provided or to be provided by any Beneficiary to a Security Provider in connection with the Loan Documents;

responsible or liable for the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of any Security Document or any other Loan Document or any other certificate or document given under any of them (except to the extent of Loss due to the Security Trustee's own fraud, gross negligence or wilful default),

unless its liability is limited in the manner set out in clause 7;

 

 

 

 

14


 

(b)
until it is first indemnified to its reasonable satisfaction in accordance with clause 8 or otherwise or the Beneficiaries place the Security Trustee in funds equivalent to the amount which the Security Trustee reasonably determines may become payable in respect of any liabilities, costs or expenses which will or may arise from the Security Trustee taking that action;
(c)
where in the Security Trustee's opinion, or in the opinion of its counsel, to do so would or may result in the Security Trustee breaching the terms of a Loan Document or any law or expose the Security Trustee to any liability; or
(d)
if it is impossible for the Security Trustee to act or to act lawfully due to any cause beyond its control (including but not limited to act of God, war, riot, terrorism, fire, natural disaster, labour dispute or change in or introduction of law taking effect after the date of this document).

No Beneficiary may have recourse to the Security Trustee where the Security Trustee does not act on the Beneficiary's instructions (on behalf of the Administrative Agent) as contemplated by this clause 4.2.

Rights of Security Trustee

Except as expressly set out in this document and the Credit Agreement, the Security Trustee:

may determine whether or not to enforce a Security Trustee Document or to seek to recover any Obligations and may determine the manner in which that enforcement or recovery is conducted.

engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with any Security Provider or any Beneficiary; and

(b)
from time to time execute such powers of attorney or other instruments as it thinks proper;
(c)
revoke any delegation under paragraph (a); and
(d)
act notwithstanding the existence of any conflict of interest,

without being responsible for Loss occasioned by so doing if the Security Trustee has not been guilty of fraud, gross negligence or wilful default in so delegating or so revoking any such delegation.

(b)
Each Beneficiary will be bound by any amendment made by the Security Trustee in accordance with this clause 6.9. The Security Trustee must notify all Beneficiaries of any such amendment.

acting in accordance with the instructions of the Administrative Agent in accordance with this document, or in the absence of instructions in accordance with clauses 3.5 or 4.2, or for refraining from acting:

7.2
Exceptions to limit on liability

Clause 7.1 will not apply to the extent that the Security Trustee or any of its employees, agents or Authorised Representatives has been guilty of fraud, gross negligence or wilful default.

7.4
Duties of the Security Trustee
(a)
The Security Trustee is not:
(i)

required to review or check whether any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document relating to them is or contains a security interest for the purposes of the PPSA or whether any such security interest has been or should be perfected under the PPSA;

 

 

 

 

20


 

(ii)
liable to any party, for not identifying or perfecting under the PPSA any security interest which may be constituted by or contained in any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document; or
(iii)
guilty of bad faith, fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct solely because they have not identified, or have failed to perfect under the PPSA, any security interest which may be constituted by or be contained in any Loan Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document relating to them, unless the Security Trustee has been expressly instructed to do so by the Administrative Agent.
(c)
This clause 7.5 does not limit in any way any other provision of a Loan Document which benefits, releases, exonerates or indemnifies the Security Trustee or any of its directors, Authorised Representatives, employees, agents or attorneys (including an Attorney).

and to the extent received by the Security Trustee, any such payment strictly in accordance with the direction is taken to satisfy the Security Provider's obligation to pay that amount to the Security Trustee and the Beneficiaries.

 

9.3
Distribution of Obligations received on or after Enforcement Date

Any amount (including the proceeds of any enforcement of a Security Document) received by the Security Trustee or a Receiver or otherwise recovered by the Security Trustee or a Receiver on or after the Enforcement Date must be applied and distributed in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

9.6
Suspense account
(a)
If any Obligations are contingently owing to any Beneficiary at the time of a distribution of an amount under clause 9.3, the Security Trustee may retain any of that amount and place it on short term interest bearing deposit until the relevant Obligations become

pay to that Beneficiary the amount which becomes actually due to it; and

unless paragraph (c) applies, the receipt or recovery will be treated as having been received by the Security Trustee (and not by the Beneficiary) for distribution under this document, and will not reduce the Obligations owing to the Beneficiary (except to the extent of any distribution subsequently received by the Beneficiary in accordance with the Credit Agreement or from the Security Trustee under this document);
(c)
if the receipt or recovery was obtained other than by payment (such as by set-off) from a person who was or became insolvent at the time of the receipt or recovery or otherwise in accordance with the Credit Agreement, each other Beneficiary is automatically taken to have assigned to the Beneficiary all right, title and interest to an amount of the Obligations equal to the amount received or recovered by the Beneficiary, with the intent that the Beneficiaries then have the same rights and obligations as if the receipt or recovery had been paid to the Security Trustee for the account of the Beneficiaries and distributed under this document or otherwise in accordance with the Credit Agreement;

payment under sub-paragraph (i) to the extent that the Security Provider's liability has been discharged by the amount received by that Beneficiary from either the Security Provider or another Beneficiary.

 

9.9
Entitlement to share in recovery

If the Security Trustee or a Beneficiary receives or recovers an amount as a result of any legal action or proceedings against a Security Provider, any Beneficiary which (being entitled and having been given a reasonable opportunity to do so) did not join in or share in the costs of the action from the time it was instituted is not entitled to share in the amount received or recovered until each Beneficiary who did join in or share in those costs, receives the amounts contributed by it in joining in or sharing in the costs of the action. Once the above amounts have been repaid, the balance of the recovered amount will be distributed in accordance with clause 9.

a successor Security Trustee has been appointed in accordance with clause 10.6;
(b)
the successor Security Trustee undertakes to act as trustee of the Security Trust and be bound in that capacity by the terms of this document and each other Security Trustee Document (subject to any agreed amendment to those documents); and

(a)
If the Security Trustee resigns or is removed, the Administrative Agent may appoint a successor Security Trustee approved by the Borrower, which approval:

(A)
an Event of Default is continuing; or
(B)
the successor Security Trustee is to be an Affiliate of the retiring Security Trustee or is to be the same person as any successor Administrative Agent appointed at the same time under Section 11.6 (Resignation or Removal of Administrative Agent) of the Credit Agreement; and
(iii)
is deemed to be given if the Borrower does not reply within 10 Business Days after the request for its approval is made.
(b)
If no successor Security Trustee is so appointed or accepts the appointment within 30 days after:
(i)
notice of resignation or removal is given in accordance with clauses 10.1 or 10.2; or
(ii)
the Security Trustee's appointment is otherwise terminated,

the Security Trustee may, on behalf of each Beneficiary, appoint a successor Security Trustee on substantially the same terms and conditions as are provided for in this document.

(c)

(d)
Each Beneficiary and each Security Provider must do all things reasonably necessary, including executing any deeds of appointment or vesting, to ensure that the appointment of any successor Security Trustee is properly and promptly effected.
(e)
When a successor Security Trustee is appointed, the successor Security Trustee and each other party to the Security Trustee Documents have the same rights and obligations among themselves as they would have had if the successor Security Trustee had been an original party to the Security Trustee Documents (other than in relation to any accrued right against the terminated Security Trustee for default under the Security Trustee Documents) in place of the terminated Security Trustee.
(f)
A party appointing a successor Security Trustee must cause the successor Security Trustee to execute novation deeds or agreements with third parties as required or appropriate to give effect to clause 10.6(e).

 

 

 

 

25

(i)
the appointment of a successor Security Trustee under clause 10.6(b); and
(ii)
the vesting in that successor Security Trustee of all of the Security Trust Fund or any part of it.

This power may be delegated or a sub-power may be given, and any delegate or sub- attorney may be removed, by the attorney appointing it.

 

11.
Administrative Agent provisions
11.1
Communication by Lenders

All communication by a Lender (in its capacity as a Beneficiary) to a Security Provider in connection with the Security Documents, the Security Trust Fund or this document must be made through the Security Trustee, except during any period in which the Administrative Agent and the Security Trustee (on its own account and not in its capacity as trustee of the Security Trust) are the only Beneficiaries.

 

11.2
Capacity and dealings
(a)
The Administrative Agent enters into this document as the administrative agent for and on behalf of the relevant Lenders pursuant to the Credit Agreement.
(b)
The parties acknowledge that:
(i)
any instruction or direction of the Lenders (or, in each case, the relevant number of them) will be communicated to the Security Trustee by the Administrative Agent and will relate to, and be in respect of, the Exposure of all of those Lenders under the Credit Agreement (and the Security Trustee may rely on that instruction or direction without further enquiry); and
(ii)
a Lender may not give an instruction or direction independently to the Security Trustee in respect of its Exposure under the Credit Agreement.
(c)
The Security Trustee need not inquire whether any instruction or direction given or not given by the Administrative Agent under this document has been given or not given in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
(d)
All action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent is, as regards the Security Trustee, deemed to be authorised by all relevant Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and without the Security Trustee being responsible, or liable to any person, for any Loss due to lack of authority (save for any responsibility or liability accruing to the Security Trustee by reason of it being the same legal entity as the Administrative Agent).

 

11.3
Information about Lenders

The Administrative Agent will inform the Security Trustee promptly following a request as to the identity of the Lenders and their respective Exposures, and the Security Trustee may rely on such information without further investigation.

 

11.4

The Administrative Agent will inform the Security Trustee in writing of the occurrence of:

(a)
an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement; and

12.2
New Security Provider
(a)
The Borrower and each other Security Provider must ensure that any person who grants a Security Document and is not already a Security Provider will, on the same day that it grants the Security Document, become bound by this document as if it were a party to this document as a 'Security Provider' by:
(i)
executing 2 counterparts of an Accession Deed and delivering these to the Security Trustee; and
(ii)
providing to the Security Trustee all information and documents required for the Security Trustee to complete KYC Checks in respect of the new Security Provider.
(b)
Each of the parties to this document (other than the Security Trustee) appoints the Security Trustee as its agent to sign on its behalf any Accession Deed referred to in paragraph (a). The execution of an Accession Deed referred to in paragraph (a) does not operate to release any party from its obligations under this document or any other Loan Document.

 

12.3
Assignment by Beneficiary

Subject to the other Loan Documents, a Beneficiary may assign or otherwise deal with all or any of its rights and transfer all or any of its obligations under this document.

12.4
New Beneficiary by assignment or novation
(a)
If a Lender transfers, substitutes or novates any of its rights and obligations under the Credit Agreement to a person who is to become a new 'Lender' pursuant to a documented transfer, substitution or novation procedure in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement the new Lender automatically becomes a Beneficiary without the requirement to take any action and the parties agree that the relevant transfer, substitution or novation documents are taken to be an Accession Deed.
(b)
If a Beneficiary other than a Lender assigns any of its rights or novates any of its rights and obligations under a Loan Document (or proposes to do so) in accordance with the Loan Documents:
(i)
the Beneficiary must notify the Security Trustee accordingly; and
(ii)
the Beneficiary and the assignee or novatee must enter into an Accession Deed with the Security Trustee so that the assignee or novatee will become bound by this document as if it were a party to this document as a 'Beneficiary'.
(c)
If a Beneficiary's assignment or novation is of only part of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, it continues to have the benefit of, and to be bound by, this document as a Beneficiary.
(d)
If a Beneficiary's assignment or novation is of all of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, on the relevant Accession Deed taking effect, it ceases to be a Beneficiary and is released from any further obligations as a Beneficiary under this document other than in respect of any breach by it of this document arising before it ceased to be a Beneficiary.

 

 

 

 

27


 

For the purposes of this clause 12.4, 'Loan Document' does not include this document.

 

12.5
Accession Deeds
(a)
An Accession Deed will not be effective until the Security Trustee has executed the Accession Deed.
(b)
On an Accession Deed taking effect the relevant new Beneficiary or new Security Provider becomes bound as, and obtains benefits as, a 'Beneficiary' or 'Security Provider' (as applicable) under this document on the same basis as if it were a party to this document.
(c)
The Security Trustee must notify the Administrative Agent of a person becoming a new 'Beneficiary' or 'Security Provider' (as applicable) promptly after the relevant Accession Deed takes effect.
(d)
Each Beneficiary and each Security Provider for valuable consideration irrevocably authorises each of the Security Trustee and the Security Trustee's Authorised Representatives separately to execute on its behalf any Accession Deed contemplated to be entered into pursuant to this document, and to do anything else that the Security Trustee considers appropriate to effect the accession contemplated by the Accession Deed.

 

12.6
Opting out by Beneficiary
(a)
A Beneficiary will cease to be a Beneficiary at the time it receives payment in full and final satisfaction of all Obligations due to it under the Loan Documents and, subject to

clause 15.5 (Reinstating avoided transaction), has no further actual or contingent obligations under any Loan Document. At that time, but subject to clause 15.5 (Reinstating avoided transaction), it will also cease to have any rights and obligations under this document.

(b)
If the Administrative Agent is replaced in its capacity as Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, it will cease to have any rights and obligations under this document in its capacity as Administrative Agent when its replacement executes an Accession Deed and delivers it to the Security Trustee.
13.
Payments
13.1
Payment requirements
(a)
All payments by a Security Provider under this document or any Security Document must be made in accordance with Credit Agreement.
(b)
If the Security Trustee directs a Security Provider to pay a particular person or in a particular manner, the Security Provider's payment obligation is only discharged when the person to whom payment is directed actually receives the relevant amount.

 

14.
Notices, demands and communications
14.1
Defined term

In this clause 14, Notice means a notice, demand, consent, approval or communication given by a party pursuant to or in connection with this document or any Security Trustee Document.

 

14.2
Service

A Notice given by a party in connection with this document or any Security Document must be given in accordance to the Credit Agreement and, in the case of a Notice given by or to the Security Trustee, as if the Notice were a Notice given by or to the Administrative Agent.

 

15.
Protection of Security Trustee, Beneficiaries and third parties
15.1
Security Trustee and Beneficiaries not

 

 

 

 

28


 

restricted

The Security Trustee or a Beneficiary need not:

(a)
exercise a Power, give a consent or make a decision under a Loan Document unless the Loan Document expressly provides otherwise or, in the case of the Security Trustee, as instructed by the Administrative Agent; or
(b)
resort to a Security Document or Power before resorting to any other of them.

 

15.2
Security Trustee and Beneficiaries not liable

Except as expressly provided otherwise in this document, to the extent permitted by law, the Security Trustee, a Beneficiary or an Attorney will not be liable to anyone for any Loss in relation to an exercise or attempted exercise of a Power, or a failure or delay in exercising a Power.

 

15.3
Security Trustee may set off

At any time while an Event of Default is continuing, the Security Trustee may, without any demand or notice, set off and apply indebtedness it owes to a Security Provider (whatever the currency) against any money owing to it by a Security Provider under any Loan Document, whether or not the amount owed by the Security Trustee or a Security Provider is immediately payable or is owed alone or with any other person. Each Security Provider irrevocably authorises the Security Trustee to do anything necessary (including to sign any document and effect appropriate currency exchanges) for that purpose.

 

15.4
Set off by a Security Provider

Except as may be expressly provided for in a Loan Document, a Security Provider may not (either directly or indirectly) claim, exercise or attempt to exercise a right of set-off or counterclaim against the Security Trustee (whether its or any other person's right) or any other right which might have the effect of reducing the Obligations.

 

15.5
Reinstating avoided transaction

Each Security Provider agrees that if a payment or other transaction relating to the Obligations is void, voidable, unenforceable or defective for any reason or a related claim is upheld, conceded

or settled (each an Avoidance), then even though the Security Trustee or a Beneficiary knew or should have known of the Avoidance:

(a)
each Power and the Security Provider's liability under each Loan Document will be what it would have been, and will continue, as if the payment or transaction the subject of the Avoidance had not occurred; and
(b)
it will immediately execute and do anything necessary or required by the Security Trustee to restore the Security Trustee or Beneficiary (as applicable) to its position immediately before the Avoidance (including reinstating any Loan Document).

This clause survives any termination or full or partial discharge or release of any Loan Document.

 

15.6
Authorised Representatives

Each Security Provider irrevocably authorises the Security Trustee to rely on a certificate by any person purporting to be its director or company secretary as to the identity and signatures of its Authorised Representatives, and to rely on any Notice or other document contemplated by a Loan Document which bears the purported signature (whether given by facsimile or otherwise) of its Authorised Representative. Each Security Provider warrants that those persons have been authorised to give notices and communications under or in connection with this document and any Security Trustee Document.

 

15.7
Security Trustee's opinion

An opinion or view of the Security Trustee for the purposes of the Loan Documents may be formed or held on its behalf by its Authorised Representative, its board of directors or by any other person it authorises to act on its behalf in relation to the Loan Documents.

 

 

 

 

29


 

 

15.8
Protection of third parties

No person dealing with the Security Trustee is bound to enquire whether the Security Trustee:

(a)
has been properly appointed under this document; or
(b)
has the requisite Power under this document or another Loan Document,

and any person dealing with the Security Trustee may assume that anything purported to be done by the Security Trustee under this document or another Security Trustee Document has been duly authorised by this document and the Beneficiaries.

 

16.
General provisions
16.1
Prompt performance

If a time is not specified for the performance by a Security Provider of an obligation under this document or any Security Document, it must be performed promptly.

 

16.2
Powers

Powers under the Loan Documents are cumulative and do not limit or exclude Powers under law. Full or partial exercise of a Power does not prevent a further exercise of that or any other Power. No failure or delay in exercising a Power operates as a waiver or representation. Unless expressly provided in a Loan Document, no Power or Loan Document merges in, limits or excludes any other Power, Loan Document or judgment which the Security Trustee or a Beneficiary (or anyone claiming through it) may have or obtain.

 

16.3
Consent, approvals and waivers

A consent, approval or waiver by the Security Trustee or a Beneficiary in relation to this document or any Security Document is effective only if in writing. If given subject to conditions, the consent, approval or waiver only takes effect when the conditions are complied with to the Security Trustee's or Beneficiary's satisfaction.

16.4
Indemnities and reimbursement obligations

The Security Trustee or a Beneficiary need not incur an expense or make a payment before enforcing an indemnity or reimbursement obligation in a Security Trustee Document. Unless otherwise stated, each such indemnity or reimbursement obligation is separate and independent of each other obligation of the party giving it, is absolute, irrevocable, unconditional and payable on demand and continues despite any settlement of account, termination of any Security Trustee Document or anything else.

 

16.5
Notices or demands as evidence

A notice or certificate from or demand by the Security Trustee stating that an Event of Default has occurred, or that a specified sum of money is owing or payable under a Loan Document or stating any other fact or determination relevant to the rights or obligations of the Security Trustee or a Security Provider under a Loan Document, is taken to be correct unless proved incorrect.

 

16.6
Law and legislation

To the extent permitted by law:

(a)
each Security Trustee Document prevails to the extent of inconsistency with any law; and
(b)
any present or future legislation operating to reduce a Security Provider's obligations under a Security Trustee Document or the effectiveness of the Powers is excluded.

 

16.7
Severability

A provision of a Security Trustee Document that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable in a jurisdiction is ineffective in that jurisdiction to the extent of the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability. This does not affect the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction, nor the

 

 

 

 

30


 

remainder of that Security Trustee Document in any jurisdiction.

 

16.8
Variation of this document
(a)
Subject to paragraph (b) below, a variation of this document must be in writing and signed by or on behalf of each Security Provider and the Security Trustee (on the instructions of the Administrative Agent).
(b)
The Security Trustee may vary any provision of this document on behalf of the Beneficiaries if permitted under clause 6.9 (Minor amendments to Security Trustee Documents).

 

16.9
Governing law and jurisdiction
(a)
This document is governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Each Security Provider irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that place (and any court of appeal) and waives any right to object to an action being brought in those courts, including on the basis of an inconvenient forum or those courts not having jurisdiction.
(b)
The Security Trustee or a Beneficiary may take proceedings in connection with the Security Trustee Documents in any other court with jurisdiction or concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

 

16.10
Service of process
(a)
Without preventing any other mode of service, any document in an action or process may be served on any party by being delivered to or left for that party at its address for service of Notices under this document, an Accession Deed or any Security Document.
(b)
Each Security Provider appoints the Australian Security Provider as its agent to accept service of process under or in connection with this document and the Security Trustee Documents, and the Australian Security Provider accepts the appointment. The appointment may not be revoked without the Security Trustee's consent. Each Security Provider agrees that service of documents on its process agent is sufficient service on the Security Provider, and that failure by a process agent to notify the Security Provider of any

document in an action in connection with this document and any Security Trustee Document will not invalidate the action concerned.

 

16.11
Counterparts
(a)
This document may be executed in any number of counterparts or copies, each of which may be executed by physical signature in wet ink or electronically (whether in whole or part). A party who has executed a counterpart of this document may exchange it with another party (the Recipient) by:
(i)
emailing a copy of the executed counterpart to the Recipient; or
(ii)

and will be taken to have adequately identified themselves by so emailing the copy to the Recipient or utilising the electronic platform.

(b)
Each party consents to signatories and parties executing this document by electronic means and to identifying themselves in the manner specified in this clause.
(c)
Each counterpart constitutes an original (whether kept in electronic or paper form), all of which together constitute one instrument as if the signatures (or other execution markings) on the counterparts or copies were on a single physical copy of this document in paper form. Without limiting the foregoing, if any of the signatures or other markings on behalf of one party are on different counterparts or copies of this document, this shall be taken to be, and have the same effect as, signatures on the same counterpart and on a single copy of this document.
