Re: Proposed changes to ASX Austraclear Registry and IPA Services Agreement and Standard Terms

Dear Company Officer

The purpose of this letter is to advise you (as an issuer using Austraclear's Registry and IPA Services) of some changes to the ASX Austraclear Registry and IPA Services Agreement (Agreement) and the ASX Austraclear Registry and IPA Services Standard Terms (Standard Terms) that you have with Austraclear Services Limited (ACSL). The Agreement and Standard Terms should be read together.

Outline of changes

As you may be aware, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has been encouraging the domestic market to include fallback provisions in the terms for floating rate notes and marketed asset-backed securities, to ensure the robustness of these financial products in the event the referenced benchmark rate is discontinued. The RBA has published new repo eligibility criteria which require fallback provisions to be included in the terms for floating rate notes and marketed asset-backed securities issued on or after 1 December 2022 that reference BBSW. Please see https://www rba gov au/media-releases/2021/mr-21-20 html for further information.

To facilitate these new requirements,Austraclear has amended Clause 16.1 (Appointment as calculation agent) of the Standard Terms to contemplate an alternative rate to BBSW.

Austraclear has also taken this opportunity to update a number of other clauses in the Agreement and Standard Terms.

These changes are reflected in the marked up copies of the Agreement and Standard Terms attached to this letter.

Acceptance process

ACSL may only amend the terms of the Agreement with your consent. However, Clause 1 of the Agreement and Clause 1.2 of the Standard Terms allow ACSL to change the Standard Terms from time to time. The changes to the Standard Terms will take effect upon the earlier of the following:

| a) | you notifying ACSL of your acceptance of the change;

| b) | you requesting ACSL to provide a Service after notification of the change; or

| c) | the expiry of 20 Business Days from the date of notification of the change, if you have not notified ACSL that you do not accept the change.

To accept the changes to the Agreement and Standard Terms, please arrange for a copy of this letter to be countersigned below by an appropriately authorised person. The changes to both documents will take effect when you notify us of your acceptance. If you do not accept the changes outlined in the attached documents, please advise us by no later than 15 February 2023 otherwise the changes to the Standard Terms will take effect from that date but your existing Agreement will remain unchanged.

Please do not hesitate to contact John Pearce on (02) 9227 0451 or john. pearce@asx.com.au if you have any questions.

Services Agreement

General

​

1 About the Services Agreement

The Services Agreement is made up of this agreement and The ASX Austraclear Registry and IPA Services Standard Terms (as published by ACSL from time to time and available online at www.asx.com.au (“Standard Terms”)) and any agreement in writing signed by both parties setting out the basis on which additional services will be provided under clause 3 of this agreement (“Additional Service Terms”).

This agreement, the Standard Terms and the Additional Service Terms (if any) should be read together. Terms used in this agreement and the Standard Terms are explained in Part G (Interpretation) of the Standard Terms.

ACSL may change the Services Agreement and Standard Terms from time to time as reasonably required by ACSL, for example to reflect a change in the nature of the Services or where required to comply with any applicable law. ACSL will notify the Issuer of any such change which will take effect upon the earlier of:

| (a) | the Issuer notifying ACSL of its acceptance of the change;

| (b) | the Issuer requesting ACSL to provide a Service after notification of the change (for example, by requesting ACSL to provide a Service in relation to a new issue of Notes); or

| (c) | the expiration of 60 days from the date of ACSL’s notification of such change, if the Issuer has not within that time notified ACSL that it does not accept the change.

Notwithstanding clause 6, if the Issuer does not accept the change, then it may terminate the Standard Terms by providing no less than 20 Business Days written notice to ACSL at any time prior to the change taking effect.

2 Appointment

The Issuer appoints ACSL as its agent to provide one or more of the following services (“Services”):

| (a) | issue Notes (see Part B of the Standard Terms);

| (b) | maintain the Register and provide registry services (see Part C of the Standard Terms);

| (c) | make payments of principal and interest (see Part D of the Standard Terms);

| (d) | notify calculations (see Part E of the Standard Terms);

| (e) | provide collection services in relation to foreign withholding taxes (see Part F of the Standard Terms),

if the service is nominated in the Details, together with any additional services agreed in accordance with clause 3, on the terms and conditions of the Services Agreement.

ACSL accepts its appointment in respect of the nominated services.

3 | Additional services

The Issuer and ACSL may, from time to time, agree that ACSL will perform additional services in connection with transactions associated with the System. Any such agreement will be effective only if in writing signed by both parties. The additional services form part of the Services and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Services Agreement.

In addition, if ACSL determines that there are functions the Issuer must perform which are not included in the Services and it is desirable for ACSL to perform them, it may give notice to the Issuer requesting the Issuer’s consent to include those functions within the Services. If the Issuer consents to the request, the additional functions form part of the Services and will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Services Agreement.

4 | Additional terms

If any additional terms are set out in the Details these also form part of this agreement. If the additional terms are inconsistent with the Standard Terms, the additional terms prevail to the extent of the inconsistency.

5 | Operating Rules

If the Issuer is an Austraclear Participant, ACSL is not responsible for ensuring that the Issuer complies with the Operating Rules.

6 | Indemnity and exclusion of liability

6.1 | Indemnity by the Issuer

The Issuer indemnifies ACSL against any liability or loss arising from, and any Costs incurred in connection with:

| (a) | any third party claim in connection with ACSL's appointment under the Services Agreement or any activities

​

3

Services Agreement

undertaken in connection with the Services Agreement (including any claim in connection with ACSL’s obligations under Part F of the Standard Terms), provided that, in the case of any claim of any third party in connection with an Erroneous Payment, ACSL has complied with its obligation to pay Compensation to the Issuer in respect of the Erroneous Payment under clause 6.2; and

| (b) | without limiting the generality of clause 6.1(a), any third party claim in connection with the payment of any amount (including in respect of Interest or Maturity Proceeds) in respect of any Note or Purported Note to its Owner (even if the payee may have a defective title or no title to the Note or Purported Note). This includes any liability, loss or Costs in connection with the Issuer’s failure to ensure sufficient funds are available to ACSL to make the payment.

The Issuer agrees to pay an amount equal to any liability or loss and any Costs of the kind referred to in this indemnity incurred by ACSL’s Related Entities and the respective officers, employees, agents and attorneys of ACSL and its Related Entities (“Protected Person”).

The amounts referred to in the preceding paragraphs are not payable to the extent that they are due to any fraudulent, unlawful or negligent act or omission by ACSL or the Protected Person.

The Issuer agrees to pay amounts due under this clause 6.1 on demand from ACSL.

6.2 Compensation

If the Issuer has complied with its obligations under the provisions of the Standard Terms relating to payments to ACSL to enable ACSL to make payments of principal and/or interest (clause 14.3) and ACSL makes an Erroneous Payment, ACSL agrees to pay Compensation to the Issuer and for these purposes:

Compensation means an amount calculated as follows:

C = EP x R x D

365

where:

EP is the amount of the Erroneous Payment;

R is the ESA Interest Rate shown on the RITS Information Facility, and represents

the interest rate paid by the Reserve Bank of Australia on overnight balances in Exchange Settlement Accounts expressed as a percentage rate per annum; and

D is the number of days from and including the due date of the payment to but excluding the date the correct payment is made.

Erroneous Payment means a payment by ACSL which is:

| (a) | erroneously made to a person or account otherwise than as agreed; or

| (b) | made on a day later than when it is due.

ACSL is not liable for any consequential loss arising from any Erroneous Payment.

Compensation is not payable to the extent any Erroneous Payment is due to fraudulent or unlawful act or omission by the Issuer.

ACSL agrees to pay Compensation due under this clause 6.2 on demand from the Issuer within 20 Business Days of such demand (or, if earlier, the due date of such payment). ACSL will have no obligation to pay Compensation if the Issuer's demand is not made within 6 months after the date of the Erroneous Payment.

6.3 Issuer acknowledgments

The Issuer agrees that the payment of Compensation by ACSL under clause 6.2 satisfies in full ACSL’s obligations to the Issuer in connection with any Erroneous Payment.

6.4 Claims under indemnity by the Issuer

If ACSL becomes aware of a claim, demand or action that may result in amounts being payable by the Issuer under clause 6.1 (a “Claim”), ACSL must notify the Issuer.

6.5 Conduct of claims

ACSL and the Issuer agree that:

| (a) | if ACSL or the Protected Person, as the case may be, does not defend a Claim, or does not act reasonably diligently in doing so, the Issuer may, at its Cost, assume the defence of the Claim and retain legal advisers approved by ACSL or the Protected Person (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

| (b) | ACSL or the Protected Person may retain, at its Cost, separate legal advisers and participate in the

​

4

Services Agreement

defence of the Claim conducted by the Issuer.

​

6.6 Limit on indemnity by the Issuer

The Issuer need not make any payment under clause 6.1 in respect of a Claim which is settled without the consent of the Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

6.7 Exclusion of liability

Subject to clause 6.2 and to the maximum extent permitted by law, ACSL is not liable for any claim, loss, damage or Cost incurred by the Issuer or any other person in connection with ACSL’s appointment under the Services Agreement or any activities undertaken by ACSL in connection with the Services Agreement.

This exclusion of liability applies even if the claim, loss, damage or Cost incurred by the Issuer or other person is due to the negligence of ACSL or a Protected Person, but does not apply to the extent that it is due to fraud by ACSL or a Protected Person.

To the extent permitted by law, all implied warranties, guarantees or representations relating to the Agreement (including any applicable consumer guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law) are excluded. If any warranty, consumer guarantee or representation cannot be excluded but ACSL is able to limit the Issuer’s remedy then, to the maximum extent permitted by law, the liability of ACSL for breach of that warranty, guarantee or representation will be limited to (at ACSL’s option) the supplying of the services again or the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.

6.8 Limitation of liability

Subject to clause 6.2, and except for any liability that has already been limited or excluded by clause 6.7, to the maximum extent permitted by law any liability of ACSL for any claim, loss, damage or Cost arising from or incurred in connection with ACSL’s appointment under the Services Agreement or any activities undertaken by ACSL in connection with the Services Agreement will not exceed:

| (a) | subject to clause 6.8(b), in respect of each individual event giving rise to any such liability, $1,000 per event; and

| (b) | in the aggregate for all events giving rise to any such liability, an amount equal to the fees paid by the Issuer under or in connection with this Agreement in the 12 months prior to the event giving rise to the liability.

6.9 Application

Each exclusion or limitation of liability applicable to ACSL also applies to protect each Protected Person, and applies whether under statute, in contract, tort (including negligence) or otherwise.

7 Fees

The Issuer agrees to pay the fees specified in the Standard Terms and any additional fees, costs and other amounts as set out in the Standard Terms.

8 General

8.1 Counterparts

This agreement may consist of a number of copies each signed by one or more parties to the agreement. If so, the signed copies are treated as making up the one document.

8.2 Governing law

This agreement is governed by the law in force in New South Wales and the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.

8.3 Serving documents

Without preventing any other method of service, any document in a court action may be served on a party by being delivered to or left at the address for service of notices of the party or its process agent specified in the Details in accordance with the Standard Terms.

8.4 Appointment of process agent

Without prejudice to any mode of service allowed under any relevant law, the Issuer (other than an Issuer incorporated, or registered as a foreign company, in Australia):

| (a) | irrevocably appoints the process agent specified in the Details as its process agent to receive any document in an action in connection with the Services Agreement; and

| (b) | agrees that failure by the process agent to notify the Issuer of the receipt of any document in an action in connection with the Services Agreement will not invalidate the action concerned.

The Issuer agrees that service of documents on its process agent is sufficient service on it.

If for any reason the process agent ceases to act as process agent, the Issuer must immediately appoint another person acting through an office in Australia, as its process agent and ensure that

Schedule 3 - Collection Services Procedures

Part G (Interpretation) of the Standard Terms which form part of the Services Agreement between the Issuer and ACSL (“Standard Terms”), applies to this schedule as if it was fully set out in this schedule.

W-8 (or other appropriate) Certificate Procedures

​

​ | ​ | ​
Day | Latest Time | Action
At least 5 Business Days before the proposed Issue Date | 5.00 pm | The Issuer will give ACSL an Issue Notice, in accordance with clause 11.2 of the Services Agreement, indicating whether W-8BEN Certificates (or other appropriate documents) will need to be collected on its behalf.
15 Business Days after the Issue Date | 5.00 pm | ACSL will generate an Issuer Representatives Holding Report for the Notes (“Holding Report”). ACSL will email to those Austraclear Participants in whose Security Records the Notes are recorded, as shown in the Holding Report, notice of the requirement to provide a signed W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) prior to the next Interest Date.
On the Business Day immediately following each Books Close Date | 9.00 am | ACSL will generate an Issuer Representatives Record Date Report (“Record Date Report”), which will be used as the final basis for obtaining W-8BEN Certificates (or other appropriate documents) in relation to the next Interest Date. ACSL will email to those Austraclear Participants in whose Security Records the Notes are recorded, as shown in the Record Date Report (“W-8BEN Holders”), and which have not yet provided a W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) or need to provide a new W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents), notice of the requirement to provide a signed W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents). ACSL will review the W-8BEN Certificates (or other appropriate documents) to ensure that the certificates are legible, signed and dated and do not appear, on their face, to be inaccurate or unreliable. ACSL will request replacement W-8BEN Certificates (or other appropriate documents) to the extent that a document is illegible, unsigned or undated. ACSL will email to the Issuer a copy of the Record Date Report and a list of W-8BEN Holders which have not yet provided a W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) or need to provide a new W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents). If ACSL receives any: (i) withholding documents other than W-8BEN Certificates; (ii) withholding documents (including W-8BEN Certificates) claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty; or (iii) documents (including W-8BEN Certificates) which appear to be inaccurate or unreliable, ACSL will send copies of those documents (“Other Documents”) to the Issuer for its review by any method ACSL reasonably considers appropriate (including by email).
3 Business Days prior to each Interest Date | 3.00 pm | ACSL will contact by telephone or email the W-8BEN Holders which have not yet provided a W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) or need to provide a new W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) and remind them of the consequences of not providing a W-8BEN Certificate (or

​ | ​ | other appropriate documents) (i.e. withholding of tax by the Issuer). ACSL will follow-up with holders who have given Other Documents as instructed in writing by the Issuer.
2 Business Days prior to each Interest Date | 3.00 pm | ACSL will collate and tally W-8BEN Certificates received from W-8BEN Holders. ACSL will email to the Issuer the name and face value of holdings of Notes of W-8BEN Holders which have failed to provide a W-8BEN Certificate by this date or provided an incomplete or illegible W-8BEN Certificate. ACSL will give a list of holders for which ACSL has received Other Documents, together with the name and face value of their holdings of Notes.
Each Interest Date | 12.00 pm | The Issuer will advise ACSL in accordance with clause 14.3 of the Services Agreement the names of the W-8BEN Holders which are to receive coupon, and the amount of such coupon (whether full or partial), based on whether a completed W-8BEN Certificate (or other appropriate documents) has been provided or the Issuer’s own review of the Other Documents sent to it by ACSL.
Each Interest Date | 4.00 pm | Subject to and in accordance with clause 14.4 of the Services Agreement, ACSL will pay partial or full coupons to the W-8BEN Holders based on the instructions received from the Issuer.
