General terms of confidentiality Schedule:
What is confidential?
All information which will be provided by one party ("Discloser") to the other party ("Recipient") 4 for the Purpose constitutes confidential information unless it is of a type described in clause 3.6 (including the terms of this deed or the content of, any communications between the parties concerning the Purpose) ("Confidential Information"). Each Recipient agrees to keep all Confidential Information confidential and not to disclose the Confidential Information provided by the other party to third parties, except in accordance with the terms of this deed.
Disclosure
- 2.1 Neither party may disclose any Confidential Information except as permitted by this deed or as required by law or by any securities exchange or by any court, tribunal or similar (including the Takeovers Panel) or after obtaining the other party's prior written consent.
- 2.2 However, nothing in this deed prevents DEXUS, CBA, CPPIB or any of their respective directors, employees or advisers from disclosing to third parties:
- (a) the existence of this deed;
- (b) the following in relation to the terms of this deed:
- (i) that the deed requires both DEXUS and CBA to keep the Confidential Information confidential;
- (ii) that during the "Exclusivity Period", defined in clause 8.1 below, CBA but not CMIL has agreed to be bound by the obligations set out in clauses 8 and 9 below; and
- (iii) that CBA agreed to the restrictions in clauses 8 and 9 below in consideration for DEXUS committing resources to conduct due diligence on the management arrangements relating to CPA;
- (c) that DEXUS and CBA are in discussions, or not, in relation to the Ancillary Proposal; and
- (d) any Confidential Information a party has received to any Minister (or their representative or delegate), government agency, regulatory body, court or tribunal (including ASIC, the ACCC, FIRB or the Takeovers Panel) in any formal or informal proceedings, investigation or requiatory process or in response to any inquiry by such a person in connection with the Proposal or Ancillary Proposal, provided that the Recipient uses all reasonable endeavours:
- (i) to minimise disclosures to that which is necessary, having regard to the circumstances in which it is made;
- (ii) to ensure to the maximum extent possible that the body to whom the information is disclosed has an obligation to keep it confidential; and
- (iii) to provide a copy of any such disclosure to the other party or parties to this deed before it is made.
If a disclosure is made under this clause 2.2(d), the party that made the disclosure must provide a copy of the disclosure to the other party or parties (as relevant) to this deed if it has not already done so.
How must a Recipient treat Confidential Information?
- 3.1 Each Recipient must use the Confidential Information solely for the Purpose. The Recipient must not use or exploit the Confidential Information for any other purpose, or allow any other person to do so without the prior written consent of the relevant Discloser.
- 3.2 Each Recipient may only disclose the Confidential Information to the following:
- (a) its directors;
- (b) its employees;
- (c) its advisers; and,
- (d) in the case of DEXUS, CPPIB, a related body corporate of CPPIB or any of their directors, employees or advisers,
(each a "Third Party Recipient"), and must ensure that the Third Party Recipients keep all Confidential Information confidential and only use it in connection with the Purpose and in accordance with this deed. The Recipient must ensure that any person to whom it discloses the Confidential information complies with clauses 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.2 of this deed as if those obligations were imposed on the relevant Third Party Recipient. The parties acknowledge that it will be a breach of this deed by a Recipient if any of its Third Party Recipients does not comply with clauses 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6.2 of this deed.

- 3.6 A Recipient does not have to treat as confidential, and this deed does not otherwise apply to, information:

- (c) which is or becomes available to it from another person who is in possession of it lawfully and can disclose it to the party on a non-confidential basis.
- 3.7 Other than entry into this deed, the Recipient must use reasonable endeavours to ensure that it does not, and must use reasonable endeavours to procure that its Third Party Recipients do not, do anything which would trigger a requirement under any law, rules of any securities exchange or court to disclose any Confidential Information. However, nothing in this clause 3.7 limits in any way a party's ability to disclose information in accordance with this deed.
- 3.8 The parties agree that any Confidential Information in relation to CPA to be provided by or on behalf of CBA to DEXUS in connection with DEXUS's Due Diligence Investigations will be provided in accordance with protocols that are in a form to be agreed between the parties (acting reasonably).

Exclusivity
("Term").
- 8.1 During the period commencing on the date of this deed and ending on 24 December 2013 ("Exclusivity Period"), CBA must ensure that neither it nor any of its related bodies corporate, directors, employees or advisers (each a "Representative") directly or indirectly:
- (a) solicits, invites, encourages or initiates any enquiries, negotiations or discussions ; or
- (b) communicates any intention to do any of these things,
with a view to obtaining any offer, proposal or expression of interest from any person in relation to a transaction for the management of CPA ("Competing Transaction"). For these purposes "a transaction for the management of CPA" includes any transaction under which any entity that currently provides responsible entity or management services to CPA: (i) is acquired; or (ii) subdelegates its obligations to a third party that is not, or is not intended to remain, a member of the CBA group of entities.

- (a) negotiates or enters into; or

a Competing Transaction, even if that person's Competing Transaction was not directly or indirectly solicited, invited, encouraged or initiated by CBA or its Representatives or the person has publicly announced the Competing Transaction.
- 8.3 During the Exclusivity Period, CBA must ensure that neither it nor any of its Representatives solicits or enables any person without the prior written consent of DEXUS to undertake due diligence investigations for the purposes of obtaining, or which may reasonably be expected to lead to a Competing Transaction.

- (a) in good faith; and
- (b) acting reasonably; and
- (c) after consultation with its external financial advisors; and
- (d) after receiving written legal advice from its external legal advisor,
that failing to respond to that bona fide Competing Transaction would be likely to constitute a breach of that board's fiduciary or statutory obligations.
Unsolicited proposal
- 9.1 During the Exclusivity Period, CBA must promptly inform DEXUS if it, or any of its Representatives, receives any unsolicited approach with respect to a Competing Transaction and must disclose to DEXUS all material details of the Competing Transaction.
- 9.2 If CBA or a Representative receives an unsolicited approach with respect to a Competing Transaction during the Exclusivity Period, DEXUS or a related body corporate of DEXUS may (in its sole discretion) match that Competing Transaction by giving written notice to CBA of the offer anytime within 5 Business Days of the receipt of the notification given by CBA or a Representative under clause 9.1. If:
- (a) DEXUS or the related body corporate gives notice of an offer under this clause 9.2 to CBA; and
- (b) DEXUS or its related body corporate's offer, in CBA's reasonable opinion:
- (i) is reasonably capable of being completed on a timely basis (or, in any event, on no less timely basis than the Competing Transaction); and
- (ii) on terms no less favourable to the relevant CBA group entity, taken as a whole, than the Competing Transaction,
taking into account all of their respective terms and conditions, CBA must not enter into or complete the Competing Transaction.
Exclusions
10 Clauses 8 to 10 do not apply to CMIL in its personal capacity or in its capacity as responsible entity or trustee.
Expiry
- 11.1 Subject to clauses 11.2 and 11.3, each Recipient's obligations under this deed expire at the end of the Term.
- 11.2 The Recipients' rights and obligations under clauses 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.5, 4, 5, 6.2, this clause 11 and clause 12 continue after the expiry of the Term.
- 11.3 Despite the expiry of the Term, each Recipient's obligations under this deed continue for a period of 2 years from expiry of the Term in relation to Retained Information:
- (a) which:
- (i) the Discloser informs the Recipient to be;
- (ii) the Recipient knows to be or ought reasonably suspect to be; or
- (iii) is self-evidently;
- subject to a duty of confidentiality; or
- (b) which is "personal information" of any "individual" (as those terms are defined in the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth)) ("Privacy Act"), provided that it will not be a breach of this deed if such personal information is dealt with by the Recipient or Representative in compliance with the Privacy Act.
General
- 12.1 This deed may be varied only if both parties agree in writing. If a Discloser does not exercise a right at any time in connection with a default under this deed, this does not mean that it has waived the right or cannot exercise it later.
- 12.2 References in this deed to a Recipient include the related bodies corporate (other than, in the case of CBA only, CMIL) of the Recipient, and each Recipient agrees to procure that its related bodies corporate adhere to this deed as if they were named as a Recipient in it. Without limiting the foregoing, any reference to a related body corporate of CBA (including where CBA is a Discloser or Recipient) does not include a reference to CMIL in any capacity.
- 12.3 Each Recipient understands that if it breaches its obligations under this deed, damages will not be an adequate remedy to the relevant Discloser and its related bodies corporate and that the Discloser may apply to a court for an order preventing the Recipient from breaching its obligations and seek any other appropriate remedy, whether in law or equity.
- 12.4 Each Recipient agrees and acknowledges that each Discloser enters into this deed for itself and for the benefit of the Discloser's related bodies corporate which make Confidential Information available.
- 12.5 The Recipient agrees that, to the extent any Confidential Information of a related body corporate of the Discloser is disclosed to the Recipient, this deed applies to such information and the Discloser may enforce this deed in relation to any loss or damage suffered by the Discloser's related body corporate caused by a breach of this deed in relation to such Confidential Information as if the Discloser itself had suffered that loss or damage.
- 12.6 This deed is covered by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. The parties submit to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of its courts and courts of appeal from them.
- 12.7 This deed may be executed in counterparts. All counterparts when taken together are to be taken to constitute one instrument.
- 12.8 For the purposes of this deed:
- (a) subject to clause 12.8(b), "related body corporate" has the same meaning as is given to that term in the Corporations Act 2001 (Cwith);
- (b) in the case of DEXUS and CPPIB, the term "body corporate" in the meaning of "related body corporate" includes any entity and the term "subsidiary" in that meaning has the meaning given to it in the Corporations Act, but so that:
- (i) an entity will also be taken to be a subsidiary of another entity if it is controlled by that entity pursuant to section 50AA of the Corporations Act;
- (ii) a trust may be a subsidiary, for the purposes of which a unit or other beneficial interest will be regarded as a share; and
- (iii) an entity may be a subsidiary of a trust if it would have been a subsidiary if that trust were a corporation.
For the avoidance of any doubt, "entity" in this context includes a trust and the trustee of a fruct
