10.2 Custodial Assets
UBS may request the Custodian at any time to pay or deliver to UBS any of the Custodial Assets, provided that UBS may only request the Custodian to deliver to UBS Custodial Assets which are ASX listed securities if such delivery would not cause UBS to have a 'relevant interest' for the purposes of the Corporations Act 2001 (C'th) of greater than 18% in any ASX listed entity. Subject to clauses 10.3, 10.4, 10.5 and 10.6 the Customer agrees that any Custodial Assets which UBS requests the Custodian to pay or deliver to UBS. or any Collateral, may be used by UBS for UBS's own account (including to borrow, lend, charge, re-hypothecate, dispose of or otherwise use for its own purposes) and in respect of UBS's obligations (or those of other customers of UBS) and, as a consequence, those Assets are not held by UBS for the Customer or the Custodian. UBS will have a contractual obligation to return equivalent Custodial Assets to the Custodian in accordance with clause 10.6. The Customer and the Custodian will in relation to the obligation to return equivalent Custodial Assets rank as one of UBS's general creditors in the event of UBS becoming Insolvent. Subject to clause 4.2 of the ASLA, UBS may retain all fees, profits and other benefits received in connection with such activities.
10.3 Express Authorisation for Collateral
$\mathbb{Z}_{p}^{+}$
Without limiting UBS's right to request transfer of any of the Custodial Assets under clause 10.2, the Customer expressly authorises UBS in its discretion to:
- identify any Collateral as being held as margin or security against a $(a)$ particular obligation of the Customer under this agreement or against an UBS Transaction:
- $(b)$ subject to clauses 10.2 and 10.5, transfer any Custodial Assets to UBS expressly as Collateral for any obligations of the Customer under this agreement or an UBS Transaction; and
- $(c)$ transfer the proceeds of a cash advance made to the Customer to any Related Entity to satisfy any margin or security requirement of a Related Entity in relation to a Transaction (provided that the Customer and UBS have previously agreed in writing that the Transaction is a Transaction to which this clause 10.3 applies).
10.4 No Derogation from Liability to provide Collateral
The authorisation of UBS set out in clause 10.3 does not derogate from the Customer's obligation to meet a demand for Outstanding Margin Requirement under clause 5.3 or any margin or security requirement owed to a Related Entity. Unless UBS agrees otherwise in a particular case, UBS is only deemed to have agreed to transfer Custodial Assets to meet an Outstanding Margin Requirement or transferring the proceeds of a cash advance to the Customer to meet a margin or security requirement of a Related Entity upon it actually transferring those Custodial Assets or proceeds (as applicable) and is not liable for failure to do so.
10.5 Provision of Collateral
Subject to UBS's rights under clause 10.2, Collateral which is required by UBS pursuant to clause 5, if provided to the Custodian, will be held by the Custodian as bare trustee for the Customer subject to the Security. Any other Collateral provided to UBS in accordance with clause 5 will be provided to UBS in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ASLA and with the Rules. Securities delivered by the Custodian to UBS under clause 10.2 will be deemed to be provided by the Customer to UBS in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ASLA and with the Rules. UBS will become the legal and beneficial owner of those securities upon taking delivery of them from the Custodian.
10.6 Custodial Assets to be borrowed by UBS
Any Custodial Assets which UBS has the Custodian pay or deliver to it, will be borrowed by UBS from the Customer in accordance with the terms and conditions of the ASLA and with the Rules. If any of the terms of the ASLA are inconsistent with any of the terms of this agreement, this agreement prevails to the extent of the inconsistency.
10.7 Withholding Taxes on Income
If a law requires UBS to deduct an amount in respect of Taxes in relation to any income or other payments to the Customer under this agreement, the Customer authorises UBS to make such deductions without any further express instructions. UBS will pay to the Customer the amount of income or other payments net of Taxes.
11 Representations, Warranties and Acknowledgment
11.1 Customer's representations and warranties
The Customer represents and warrants to UBS that:
- $(a)$ it has the power to enter into and perform its obligations under this agreement, and has duly executed this agreement so as to constitute valid and binding obligations of the Customer;
- $(b)$ it has duly executed this agreement in its capacity as trustee and manager of the Scheme and for the benefit of the beneficiaries of the Scheme;
- $(c)$ it holds such licences and authorities as are necessary to lawfully perform its obligations under this agreement;
- in giving any instructions under this agreement, the Customer will act $(d)$ as principal;
- in giving any instructions under this agreement, the Customer will act $(e)$ in accordance with the provisions of its constitution, the constitution of the Scheme or other constituent documents, any applicable laws and regulations and comply with any investment restrictions in any prospectus, information memorandum, investment management

MASTER PRIME BROKERAGE AGREEMENT
$(b)$ if UBS considers it desirable (i) in order to facilitate Transactions or (ii) that UBS has collateral (or additional collateral) in relation to your obligations to UBS under this Agreement and the Customer Agreements, credit the Assets to the Transferred Assets Account.
6.3 UBS will credit all Cash to the Banking Account, and hold the Cash as banker and not as trustee, and so will not hold the Cash in accordance with the FSA's client money rules.
6.4 Assets are delivered to UBS at your risk. In the case of registrable Assets, you must deliver, together with the Assets, transfers duly executed in blank in the manner and form UBS requires.
6.5 UBS may in its absolute discretion decline to accept (in whole or in part) any securities, cash or other property tendered to it for credit to the Custody Account, Transferred Assets Account or Banking Account. UBS is not obliged to give any reason for its refusal.
6.6 If, on the relevant settlement or income payment date, UBS credits the Custody Account, Transferred Assets Account or Banking Account with Assets, Income or the proceeds of a sale, purchase or exchange of any Assets, or debits the Custody Account. Transferred Assets Account or Banking Account with the Assets or cost of any Assets, UBS may reverse any credit or debit if the relevant transaction fails to settle, or the Income is not received, on a timely basis.
6.7 Subject to the terms of this Agreement, UBS is authorised and agrees to act on all Instructions. UBS acts upon Instructions at your sole risk. UBS may for any reason refuse to act on any Instructions, including to deliver any Assets from the Custody Account or Transferred Assets Account or make any payments of Cash from the Banking Account.
$7.$ TRANSFERRED ASSETS ACCOUNT
$7.1$ If UBS credits Assets to the Transferred Assets Account, all right, title and interest in those Assets passes to UBS free of all liens, charges, encumbrances and all third-party interests and rights, and UBS is obliged to deliver to you Equivalent Assets in accordance with, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement. UBS may retain for its own account all fees, profits and other benefits received in connection with any Assets credited to the Transferred Assets Account. Equivalent Assets will be delivered to you, pursuant to clause 10.1 or, at UBS's discretion, earlier, by crediting them to the Custody Account, and this Agreement applies to those assets as if they were
Assets credited to the Custody Account pursuant to clause 6.2, and UBS will debit the Transferred Assets Account accordingly.
$7.2$ Following any record date for payment or distribution of Income on any Assets credited to the Transferred Assets Account, UBS will credit an amount equal to or securities equivalent to the Income, after deduction of any taxes and duties payable, to either the Banking Account or Custody Account, as appropriate, as soon as reasonably practical after UBS receives the Income.
8. CUSTODY ACCOUNT
8.1 Subject to the terms of this Agreement, in relation to Assets credited by UBS to the Custody Account, UBS will:
- $(a)$ on your behalf, hold or procure to be held to UBS's order those Assets; and
- $(b)$ as soon as practicable after receipt of any necessary documents, procure registration of any registrable Assets in a manner permitted by the FSA Rules, which may include registration in the name of (i) due to the law or market practice of particular jurisdictions, UBS or a sub-custodian, (ii) UBS's or a subcustodian's nominee, or (iii) any other person as you notify to UBS in writing.
At your request, UBS will notify you of those jurisdictions where registrable Assets credited to the Custody Account are currently registered in the name of UBS or a sub-custodian, and, in relation to the latter, of the name of the sub-custodian.
8.2 Subject to this Agreement, Assets credited to the Custody Account are held by UBS at your risk. Where Assets credited to the Custody Account are registered in the name of UBS, those Assets might not be segregated from UBS's own assets and, if UBS defaults, may not be as well protected from claims made on behalf of the general creditors of UBS. The consequences of you instructing UBS regarding the registration of Assets credited to the Custody Account are at your risk. You may instruct UBS in writing to hold documents of title for Assets credited to the Custody Account other than in UBS's physical possession or with an eligible custodian and you acknowledge that the consequences of doing so or of instructing UBS pursuant to clause 8.1(b)(iii) are at your risk.
8.3 In respect of Assets credited to the Custody Account which are held by a sub-custodian, UBS will, wherever possible, require that sub-custodian to record them in its books to an account the title of which makes it clear that those Assets belong to a client of UBS.
8.4 Unless UBS has received contrary Instructions in sufficient time for UBS to act on them, UBS will, subject to this Agreement, in relation to Assets credited to the Custody Account and on your behalf:
- $(a)$ collect, as they become payable, all interest, cash dividends and securities dividends and all other cash and securities income and cash and securities payments, with respect to such Assets, and credit the Banking Account or Custody Account on receipt, as appropriate, and, for this purpose, execute in your name any declarations of ownership or other documentation as may be required;
- present for payment all such Assets which are $(b)$ called, redeemed or otherwise become payable and all coupons and other income items which call for payment upon presentation, in any case provided that UBS is actually aware of the opportunities, and credit the Cash, when received, to the Banking Account:
- credit, on receipt, to the Custody Account all $(c)$ Assets received by UBS as a result of a share sub-division or re-organisation, capitalisation of reserves or otherwise with respect to Assets credited to the Custody Account; and
- to the extent the issuer of the relevant assets $(d)$ permits, exchange interim or temporary receipts $\alpha$ certificates for definitive certificates, and old or overstamped certificates for new certificates.
8.5 In accordance with Instructions, UBS will, subject to this Agreement, execute and deliver, or procure to be executed and delivered, to you or as you may direct, any powers of attorney or proxies as may reasonably be required, authorising those attorneys or proxies to exercise any rights conferred by, or otherwise act in respect of, any Assets credited to the Custody Account.
8.6 UBS will use its reasonable efforts to notify you, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt, of any notice relating to any of the Assets credited to the Custody Account, including, without limitation, notice of a tender or exchange offer or of a rights entitlement or a fractional interest resulting from a rights issue, stock dividend or stock split, but excluding notice of any general meeting of holders of securities. Unless
agreed otherwise with you, UBS is not responsible for taking any action with respect to any such notice, or for the exchange of any Asset credited to the Custody Account even if purely administrative, or for the exercise of any rights to subscribe for securities, conversion rights, voting rights or any other rights relating to those Assets or for dealing with any takeover, other offer or capital re-organisation affecting those Assets. However, for the avoidance of doubt, you have no right to vote in respect of Assets credited to the Custody Account to the extent that they are Settlement Securities that have not yet been delivered to third parties.
You authorise UBS to transfer Assets credited 8.7 to the Custody Account from such account to the Transferred Assets Account (so that UBS may borrow. lend, charge, sell, transfer or otherwise use those Assets for its own purposes or the purposes of its other clients) without giving notice of this to you, and clause 7.1 applies accordingly.
8.8 You authorise UBS and UBS's sub-custodians, agents and other delegates to hold Assets credited to the Custody Account in accounts in which those Assets are commingled with assets of the same class held by the relevant person for its other clients. Where Assets are held in such an account, your rights to those Assets is not in relation to any separately identifiable securities, but rather is in relation to the same number, class, denomination and issue as those delivered to UBS, and you confirm you accept this. Where Assets credited to the Custody Account are pooled on this basis, UBS:
- $(a)$ acknowledges that you have an equitable interest in that pool of assets (or in UBS' interest in respect of that pool) equal to the proportion which from time to time the number of Assets credited to the Custody Account (or which should have been credited) which have been pooled bears to the total number of assets in the pool (or in that part of the pool in respect of which UBS has an interest); and
- may, if those Assets are called for partial $(b)$ redemption by their issuer, and subject to the rules or regulations pertaining to allocation of any Securities System in which those Assets have been deposited, allot or procure to be allotted the called portion to the respective beneficial holders of that class of investment in any manner UBS considers fair and equitable.
For the purposes of this clause 8.8, assets are of the same class as other assets if they are (i) of the same light or which UBS may suffer or incur in respect of past Transactions.
