RISK FACTORS

The following factors may affect the ability of the Issuer and the Guarantors to fulfil their obligations under the Notes which may in turn result in investors losing the value of their investment. Most of these factors are contingencies which may or may not occur and neither the Issuer nor any of the Parents is in a position to express a view on the likelihood of any such contingency occurring.

Whilst Lend Lease’s risk management process has identified that the factors described below represent the principal risks inherent in investing in the Notes issued, the inability of the Issuer or any of the Guarantors to pay interest, principal or other amounts on or in connection with the Notes may occur for other reasons which may not have been identified as significant risks by the Issuer and the Guarantors based on information currently available to them or which they may not currently anticipate. Prospective investors should also read the detailed information set out elsewhere in this Offering Circular (including any documents deemed to be incorporated by reference herein) and reach their own views prior to making any investment decision.

In addition, factors which may be material for the purpose of assessing the market risks associated with the Notes are also described below.

Lend Lease Group is the name of Lend Lease Corporation Limited and Lend Lease Trust, the ordinary shares and units of which trade on the Australian Securities Exchange under the ticker symbol “LLC” as a single “stapled” security. References to Lend Lease in this section are made in the context of the business in its entirety including Lend Lease Corporation, Lend Lease RE and their respective Subsidiaries.

Factors that may affect the Issuer’s ability to fulfil its obligations under the Notes and the Guarantors’ ability to fulfil their obligations under the Guarantee

General economic conditions

Changes in prevailing economic conditions in Australia and other locations where Lend Lease operates will impact (either favourably or unfavourably) on Lend Lease’s businesses. Relevant economic factors may include but are not limited to: changes in interest rates and inflation, changes in gross domestic product and economic growth, employment levels and consumer spending, consumer and investment sentiment, property market volatility and availability of debt and equity capital. Global economic conditions are currently challenging, with significant downside risks to growth in different geographic regions and disruptions to global capital markets in the face of uncertain economic conditions and the risk of sovereign debt defaults within the Eurozone and potential uncertainties arising out of the US presidential elections in November 2012 including post election legislative matters. Whilst Lend Lease monitors economic, market, industry and company specific developments, it is difficult to predict how long the current challenges will persist and which economies, markets, industries and companies will be affected.

Funding

The property investment and development sector is capital intensive. The ability of Lend Lease to raise funds (equity or debt) on acceptable terms will depend on a number of factors including capital market conditions, general economic and political conditions, Lend Lease’s performance and credit rating, and credit availability and both the cost and availability of such funding may be negatively affected by the current disruptions in global capital markets. Changes in the cost of current and future borrowings and equity raisings may impact the earnings of Lend Lease, and impact the availability of funding for new projects or increase refinancing risks as debt facilities mature.

Further, Lend Lease relies on certain foreign investors to invest in its projects. The Australian government recently announced an increase in the withholding tax applicable to distributions to foreign investors in managed investment trusts from 7.5% to 15%. Sourcing of capital from such investors may be adversely affected by these changes.

Debt covenants

Lend Lease has various covenants in relation to its debt facilities, including interest cover, gearing and negative pledge covenants. While there is adequate head-room to Lend Lease financial covenants, factors such as falls in asset values and the inability to achieve timely asset sales at prices acceptable to Lend Lease could lead to a breach of such covenants. In such an event, Lend Lease’s lenders may require their loans to be repaid immediately.

Other covenants relate to change of control events. In the event a change of control occurs, a review event or right to early payment in some facilities may be triggered and may result in debt becoming immediately due for payment.

Property market risks

Lend Lease’s earnings will be subject to prevailing property market conditions in the countries and sectors where Lend Lease operates. Increases in supply (or falls in demand) or adverse changes in prevailing market sentiment in any of the sectors of the property market in which Lend Lease operates or invests may adversely affect earnings. These factors may adversely affect the value of, and returns generated from, property investments, management and development and construction projects undertaken by Lend Lease from time to time, and may influence the acquisition of sites, the timing and value of sales, and the carrying value of projects and income-producing assets.

Property markets in different geographies are currently in differing cycles and residential markets are currently facing challenges in Australia and elsewhere following the global financial crisis, requiring ongoing review of the carrying values of affected assets. There are market uncertainties which are difficult to predict. These uncertainties may impact the carrying value and returns generated from certain development projects and the proposed recycling of assets, but may also present opportunities. Lend Lease monitors the markets on an ongoing basis, seeking to implement strategies to minimise adverse impacts and take advantage of opportunities.

Property values

Unanticipated factors influencing the value of investment property or the realisable value of development trading stock, such as those listed below, could impact on future earnings:

  • adverse movements in the capitalisation rates that are considered appropriate by professional valuers, for the income-producing properties held by Lend Lease, in response to changes in market conditions;

  • a sustained downturn in the property market, such as continued under-performance of residential property markets, may result in the diminution in the value of assets, a lower reported profit and a higher debt/equity ratio for Lend Lease;

  • changes in the conditions of town planning consents applicable to Lend Lease projects, as a consequence of the unpredictable nature of council policies;

  • variances in the cost of development as a consequence of the imposition of levies by state and local government agencies;

  • the presence of previously unidentified threatened flora and fauna species, which may influence the amount of developable land on major projects;

  • the activities of resident action groups;

  • native title claims;

  • land resumptions for roads and major infrastructure, which cannot be adequately offset by the amount of compensation eventually paid; and

  • changes to the value of property developments currently in progress due to changes in market conditions.

Events may occur from time to time (for example, unanticipated environmental issues or hazardous materials) which affect the value of land or development costs which may impact the financial returns generated from particular property related investments, businesses or projects, including potential rezoning on some projects.

Potential liquidity

Property assets are by their nature illiquid investments. Therefore, it may not be possible for Lend Lease to dispose of assets in a timely manner. To the extent that Lend Lease invests in properties for which there may be only a limited number of potential investors, the realisable value of those assets may be less than the fair value.

Exchange rates

Lend Lease earns income denominated in many currencies, including AUD, GBP, USD, SGD and EUR. The financial performance, asset values and earnings of Lend Lease may be adversely affected by exchange rate movements to the extent that such movements are not hedged, or exposures hedged do not eventuate. The financial impact on Lend Lease in these situations would depend on the exchange rate movement that occurs.

8

Defined benefit pension schemes

Lend Lease’s current contribution rates to defined benefit schemes as disclosed in Lend Lease’s financial statements are considered adequate. However, a deterioration in equity and financial markets may have an adverse impact on the value of the assets held by the pension schemes. Actuarial assumptions may also change. If this occurs, Lend Lease may need to reassess its level of contributions to its pension schemes so as to support the capacity of the schemes to meet their future liabilities, which may have an adverse impact on the financial performance of Lend Lease.

Employees

The loss of key management personnel who have particular expertise or the inability to attract new qualified personnel may influence future earnings. Lend Lease is also exposed to the risk that industrial disputes may arise which might disrupt some of Lend Lease’s businesses and lead to increased project costs and delays to projects under construction.

Conflicts of interest with joint venture partners

Lend Lease currently undertakes joint ventures on development projects and asset ownership. At times, major decisions are required to be made in respect of these joint venture arrangements (for example, redevelopment and refurbishment, refinancing, the sale of assets or surplus land, design and construction, the purchase of additional land and bid pricing). Lend Lease’s interests may not always be the same as those joint venture partners in relation to these matters and conflicts can have adverse time and cost implications.

Some of these agreements contain buy/sell provisions which may be triggered by a joint venture party and may require Lend Lease to determine whether to retain or sell its interest in the joint venture. In addition, pre-emptive provisions or first rights of refusal may apply to sales or transfers of interests in co-owned assets and businesses. These provisions may work to the disadvantage of Lend Lease because, among other things, Lend Lease might be required to make decisions about buying or selling interests in these assets and businesses at a time that is disadvantageous to it.

While the majority of Lend Lease’s joint venture partners are large corporates or institutional investors, there is also the risk that they may default on their obligations or otherwise act in a manner which adversely affects Lend Lease.

Environment

Lend Lease will from time to time, be exposed to a range of environmental risks including: soil and water contamination; construction (lead paint, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyl (PCBs)); cultural heritage (aboriginal); flora and fauna (native vegetation, endangered species); and greenhouse gases. In addition, there is a risk that property owned or projects undertaken by Lend Lease from time to time may be contaminated by materials harmful to human health (such as asbestos and other hazardous materials). In these situations, Lend Lease may be required to undertake remedial works on contaminated sites and may be exposed to third party compensation claims and other environmental liabilities. Although Lend Lease is not currently aware of any material risks, there is a risk of the discovery of, or incorrect assessment of costs associated with, environmental contamination on any of Lend Lease’s projects, assets or sites.

Climate change and climatic conditions

Lend Lease’s failure to adequately respond to the impact of climate change and associated legislative requirements could result in litigation (if reporting requirements are not met), reduced profit due to the impact of increased costs associated with energy efficiency and other costs associated with upgrading existing buildings to comply with new building standards or contractual obligations. Lend Lease may also be adversely impacted by a loss of market share if building designs do not address community expectations or match competitor products on sustainability issues.

Prolonged adverse weather conditions (such as those experienced in Australia in recent times) may result in delays in construction, giving rise to possible project losses, liquidated damages claims and/or deferral of revenue or profit recognition.

Insurance

Lend Lease purchases a suite of insurances that provide a degree of protection for its assets, liabilities and people. Such policies include material damage of assets, contract works, business interruption, general and professional liability and workers’ compensation. There are, however, certain risks which are uninsurable (for example, nuclear, chemical or biological incidents) or risks where the deductibles may be higher, breadth of cover reduced and/or the

9

limits lower (such as from cyclones and earthquakes). Additionally, Lend Lease may face risks associated with the financial strength of its insurers to meet their indemnity obligations when called upon which may adversely affect earnings. While Lend Lease maintains insurance coverage and its own captive insurer, it is involved in a number of disputes where insurance coverage is yet to be determined, which may adversely affect Lend Lease’s assumed outcome position.

Accounting standards

Changes to generally accepted accounting principles in Australia adopted by the Australian Accounting Standards Board ( Australian Accounting Standards ) could affect Lend Lease’s reported earning performance in any given period and its financial position from time to time.

Competition

Lend Lease faces competition from other organisations in the countries in which Lend Lease operates. Lend Lease also operates with the threat of new competition entering the market. Competition may lead to an over-supply through over-development, or to prices for existing properties or services being impacted by competing bids. The existence of such competition may have an adverse impact on Lend Lease’s ability to secure tenants for its properties at satisfactory rental rates and on a timely basis or the pricing of construction projects or development opportunities, which in turn may impact Lend Lease’s financial performance and returns to investors.

Reliance on key contracts/clients

Lend Lease’s operations, particularly those in the United States and the United Kingdom, rely on government and government agency contracts which may be affected by changes to relevant government policy or trading practice. There is also a risk that existing contracts are not completed or otherwise terminate. Depending on the extent to which these matters occur, Lend Lease’s financial performance may be adversely affected.

Regulatory, tax and accounting

Lend Lease is subject to a range of industry specific and general legal and regulatory controls. Changes in laws can have an adverse affect on financial performance (such as by directly or indirectly reducing income or increasing costs). For example, changes in environmental laws could require increased capital expenditure. Regulatory breaches may affect the operational and financial performance of Lend Lease.

If Lend Lease fails to comply with necessary laws, such as those impacting its operating licenses including OH&S (occupational health and safety) legislative requirements across the jurisdictions in which it operates, it could result in stop work orders, fines, penalties and compensation for damages as well as reputational damage for Lend Lease.

Changes in tax law (including in goods and services taxes and stamp duties), or changes in the way taxation laws are interpreted in the various jurisdictions in which Lend Lease operates, may impact the future tax liabilities of Lend Lease. The laws governing the taxation of income from construction, property development and investments is subject to interpretational risk. Lend Lease’s activities are regularly reviewed by revenue authorities, both in Australia and abroad. Where Lend Lease adopts an interpretation of taxation law which differs from the interpretation adopted by a revenue authority, and the authority’s view is ultimately found to prevail, additional tax may be imposed on Lend Lease.

Under current income tax legislation, Lend Lease Trust is generally not liable for Australian income tax, including capital gains tax, provided Lend Lease Trust distributes all of its trust law income. Should the actions or activities of Lend Lease cause Lend Lease Trust to fall within the operative provisions of Division 6B or 6C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936, Lend Lease Trust may be taxed on its net income at a rate which is currently equivalent to the corporate income tax rate of 30%. Management of the Lend Lease Trust seeks to ensure that neither Division 6B nor 6C will apply.

Interest rates/inflation

Adverse fluctuations in interest rates, to the extent that they are not hedged or forecast, will impact on Lend Lease’s earnings. Lend Lease’s policy is to utilise fixed rate borrowings and interest rate derivatives to protect a portion of Lend Lease’s forecast interest expense from floating rate exposure. Adverse movements in interest rates may also impact Lend Lease’s earnings before interest and asset values due to any impact on property markets in which Lend Lease operates.

Higher than expected inflation rates generally or specific to the property industry could be expected to increase operating costs and development costs. These cost increases may be able to be offset by increased selling prices or

10

rents. Increases in interest rates could have the effect of reducing the availability or increasing the cost of finance for the purchase of properties by Lend Lease’s customers. Interest rates also impact on Lend Lease’s cost of funds.

Development activity risk

Lend Lease is involved in a number of large developments and is subject to risks associated with development and redevelopment activities including general decline in property values, income derived from redeveloped properties being lower than expected, fluctuations in land values, industrial disputes, cost overruns, increases in funding costs, construction not being completed on budget or on schedule, environmental issues, and failure to obtain or delays in obtaining required plan registrations, approvals, permits or licences.

As is often the case with development projects, a number of Lend Lease’s development sites are subject to rezoning requirements, carrying the risk of delays in obtaining, or an inability to obtain, required zoning approvals. These risks may adversely affect the value of these projects.

Development activity involves an assumption of risk by Lend Lease as to the ultimate value of the development asset. Lend Lease’s practice is to seek to mitigate that risk through selling down some or all of the exposure to third party investors, or position itself to fund the project through capital management initiatives. However in differing circumstances Lend Lease may not be able to obtain its desired timing and value for sell-down and consequently may carry exposures to projects in excess of that which it intends to hold for the longer term or which may impact the value of those assets or the Group’s credit rating.

Barangaroo

Lend Lease is currently undertaking the Barangaroo South development in Sydney. Barangaroo South has an expected development period of 10 to 15 years and estimated end value of A$6 billion. It involves a significant investment of capital and human resources by Lend Lease. Lend Lease has announced anchor tenants for two of the three proposed commercial towers and will continue discussions with a number of other potential tenants over the development period. Lend Lease has also announced cornerstone investors in the project and will continue to seek additional capital from institutional, private and debt providers as the development progresses.

Large projects such as Barangaroo South present developers with a number of risks. Principally, these are the same as the risks involved in other development activity described above. However, the scale of such projects means that such risks, should they eventuate, have an increased potential to adversely affect the Group’s financial position and credit rating.

Investment activity risk

Lend Lease invests in property directly and indirectly through various property funds. The value of, and returns generated from, property investment assets may be impacted by adverse changes in a number of factors, including the rental income generated from property, local real estate conditions (such as level of demand for, and supply of, retail space), vacancy rates, change in retail tenancy laws, the financial condition of tenants (particularly anchor tenants), capitalisation rates, the expense incurred in the operation, management and maintenance of the property, property market volatility and liquidity and broader market conditions.

Lend Lease can have significant non-cash gains or losses depending on the change in fair market value of its investment property interests. If a substantial decrease occurs, Lend Lease’s financial performance, gearing and proximity to covenants could be affected.

Lend Lease holds management rights in respect of various wholesale funds. Underperformance of those funds and reductions in property values will reduce fee income and may result in the removal of Lend Lease as fund manager.

At times Lend Lease has significant cash reserves that are invested with financial institutions and in money market instruments. The value and returns generated from these investments may be impacted by adverse market movements including changes in credit quality, interest rates and foreign exchange rates.

Asset management risk

Lend Lease takes long term asset management positions such as 40 year ground leases for the US military housing privatisation business, facilities management contracts for social infrastructure such as hospitals and roads or leases for retirement villages and aged care facilities. The value of the rights and performance obligations under these asset management commitments can be sensitive based on changes to assumptions around the economic and operating environment these operations will face over such a long term horizon.

11

Professional services risk

Lend Lease provides management services and advice in its normal course of business which may in some circumstances lead to professional liability claims.

Construction activity risk

Lend Lease is subject to risks associated with construction activities, including:

  • the ability of third parties such as designers and subcontractors to perform their work in accordance with their obligations;

  • defective work and latent defects arising from incorrect design and poor subcontractor workmanship and related third party claims;

  • liquidated damages from delays in delivery on projects;

  • cost overruns as a consequence of inadequate design, change in pricing conditions, industrial disputes, unforeseen conditions including inclement weather or under-performance of third parties; and

  • professional liability claims arising from allegations of negligence.

The nature of construction means that at any one time there are claims where the outcome remains uncertain for many years and is dependent on the ability to recover from third parties and insurance policies.

The business is managed as a portfolio of projects and assets in which there is variation of performance with some projects and assets over-performing whilst others under-perform, including loss-making projects, under-yielding assets and projects and assets subject to litigation.

Adequacy of Provisions

Lend Lease reviews the performance of its construction and development projects and makes provisions in its accounts to reflect any expected losses. There is a risk that the assumptions upon which such expected losses are calculated will prove incorrect, resulting in actual losses being greater than that for which provision has been made. As a consequence, the Group’s financial position may be adversely affected.

Fixed nature of significant costs

Significant expenditures associated with each project or asset, such as site costs, mortgage or landholder payments, maintenance costs, employee costs and taxes, are generally not reduced when circumstances cause a reduction in return for those projects and assets. The value of a project or an asset owned by Lend Lease may be adversely affected if the income from the asset declines and other related expenses remain unchanged.

Counterparty/credit risk

Counterparty risks may arise in circumstances where parties with which Lend Lease has dealings experience financial difficulties with consequential adverse effects for the relevant projects or assets, which may impact on Lend Lease’s financial performance. For example:

  • delay to projects and additional costs of securing replacement partners or products or amounts owed which may be unrecoverable;

  • purchasers who may default on their purchase obligations resulting in the resale of those properties at a lesser amount; and

  • insolvency or financial distress of its clients and tenants may reduce the income received by Lend Lease.

Taxation issues

Changes to the composition of the holders of the stapled securities of the Lend Lease Group introduce change of control risks, which from a taxation perspective can impact on the ability for Lend Lease entities to utilise prior and current year tax losses in the various jurisdictions in which they operate.

12

Integration of Valemus

Lend Lease is currently undertaking the integration of Valemus Australia and as such is subject to the risks associated with integrating a new business, including systems integration, policy and compliance alignment and general management reporting.

Litigation and disputes

Lend Lease is involved in a number of ongoing court proceedings, arbitration proceedings and disputes, the aggregate value of which cannot be readily or reliably quantified at this time. These claims have arisen out of Lend Lease’s general business activities, and include claims arising from businesses it has sold to third parties, claims made under construction and development contracts and disputes with government agencies (such as the Australian Taxation Office ( ATO )).

Lend Lease has obtained legal advice in respect of the ongoing claims. Lend Lease has assessed the financial impact of each known claim and the extent to which that particular claim will be covered by insurance, with provisions being included in Lend Lease’s consolidated financial statements as is considered appropriate. However, due to uncertainties involved in assessing the outcome of these claims, there is a risk that these provisions may be inadequate. If this occurs, these claims may have an adverse effect on the financial position of Lend Lease.

As part of the settlement of the 130 Liberty St, New York dispute, Lend Lease entered into a non-prosecution agreement with the New York District Attorney which expires on 21 December 2012. As part of the settlement of the New York billing and minority business enterprises matter (as described in the Group’s accounts as at 31 December 2011) a deferred prosecution agreement was entered into with the Federal US Attorney for the Eastern District of New York which expires on 23 April 2014. A material breach of the terms of these agreements would have adverse consequences for the operations in the Americas region and cause reputational damage to the Group.

Factors which are material for the purpose of assessing the market risks associated with the Notes

The Notes may not be a suitable investment for all investors

Each potential investor in the Notes must determine the suitability of that investment in light of its own circumstances. In particular, each potential investor should:

  • have sufficient knowledge and experience to make a meaningful evaluation of the Notes, the merits and risks of investing in the Notes and the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Offering Circular;

  • have access to, and knowledge of, appropriate analytical tools to evaluate, in the context of its particular financial situation, an investment in the Notes and the impact the Notes will have on its overall investment portfolio;

  • have sufficient financial resources and liquidity to bear all of the risks of an investment in the Notes, including where the currency for principal or interest payments is different from the potential investor’s currency;

  • understand thoroughly the Terms and Conditions of the Notes and be familiar with the behaviour of any relevant indices and financial markets; and

  • be able to evaluate (either alone or with the help of a financial adviser) possible scenarios for economic, interest rate and other factors that may affect its investment and its ability to bear the applicable risks.

A potential investor should not invest in Notes unless it has the expertise (either alone or with a financial adviser) to evaluate how the Notes will perform under changing conditions, the resulting effects on the value of the Notes and the impact this investment will have on the potential investor’s overall investment portfolio.

Reliance on the Guarantee

The Notes are guaranteed pursuant to the Guarantee. The Issuer has minimal assets other than cash deposits and its investments in or loans to the Guarantors or other Subsidiaries. If any or all of the Guarantors’ financial condition deteriorates, it is possible that the Issuer may not have access to the resources or liquidity to pay the

13

amounts required under the Notes and the Guarantors, individually or collectively, may not have the financial resources or liquidity to pay the amounts required under the Guarantee. Consequently, investors in the Notes may suffer direct and materially adverse consequences.

Potential investors should be aware that the entities in the Group forming the Guarantors may change in accordance with the Terms and Conditions. In particular, the Guarantors other than the Initial Guarantors may be released if the Issuer so chooses at any time provided that at that time no Event of Default is subsisting and no Event of Default will occur as a result of that Guarantor ceasing to be a Guarantor, and such Guarantor is also not a guarantor under a Principal Financing Document. In the event that the Issuer determined to release all other Guarantors and the conditions to release were satisfied, the Initial Guarantors would be the only entities guaranteeing the Notes.

In addition, investors should be aware that Lend Lease Corporation is a holding company, whose principal assets are its investments in or loans to Subsidiaries, and that the Lend Lease Trust currently has only nominal assets. Accordingly, the capacity of the Parents to pay amounts required to be paid under the Guarantee will be dependent upon the financial condition and performance of the Subsidiaries and their ability to have access to the resources of the Subsidiaries. Lend Lease Europe Finance plc and Lend Lease (US) Capital, Inc. are financing Subsidiaries and have minimal assets other than cash on deposit and investments in loans to other Guarantors and other Subsidiaries.

Most of the assets of the Group are held with, and most of the Group’s earnings are derived through, Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors and accordingly the Notes will effectively rank behind the creditors of those Subsidiaries for payment out of the assets or earnings of those Subsidiaries. In addition, some of the Subsidiaries have or may in the future incur external borrowings and other contractual obligations which restrict their ability to pay dividends or otherwise provide cash to the Parents or other members of the Group – these restrictions limit the Parents’ ability to have access to the assets and earnings of such Subsidiaries, which in turn affects their ability to meet their obligations under the Guarantee.

Ranking of claims

The Notes are unsecured, unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and the Guarantee is an unsecured, unsubordinated obligation of the Guarantors. The Notes and the Guarantee will rank after certain liabilities of the Issuer and the Guarantors that are mandatorily preferred by law and after secured liabilities of the Issuer and the Guarantors.

The Notes confer no claim against any Subsidiary other than the Issuer and the Guarantors and accordingly can only be paid out of the assets or earnings of any such Subsidiary to the extent that the Issuer or Guarantor has access to those assets or earnings. The Notes therefore effectively rank behind any liabilities (such as resident and accommodation bond liabilities) of Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors to the extent of the assets and earnings of those Subsidiaries.

Limitations on covenant protection

Subject to the terms of the negative pledge, financial covenants and limitations on certain indebtedness contained in Condition 3.3, Condition 3.4 and Condition 3.5, the Terms and Conditions do not prevent Lend Lease entering into a variety of transactions that may adversely affect the risk profile of the Notes. For example, Lend Lease may make material acquisitions or disposals of assets or businesses and may incur further financial indebtedness. In particular, Subsidiaries who are not Guarantors may incur financial indebtedness which would effectively rank ahead of the Notes in respect of the assets and earnings of those Subsidiaries. In addition, to the extent a Security Interest is permitted to be given or indebtedness is permitted to be incurred under a Principal Financing Document, then such security or indebtedness will also be permitted under the Terms and Conditions (see the definition of “Permitted Security Interest” and “Permitted Indebtedness” in Condition 1).

Limited liability of certain Guarantors

Lend Lease RE has entered into and provided its guarantee in its capacity as trustee and responsible entity of the Lend Lease Trust and is only liable under the Guarantee to the extent it is indemnified out of the assets of the Lend Lease Trust in respect of that liability. Currently the Lend Lease Trust has only nominal assets and accordingly Lend Lease RE’s liability under the Guarantee will also currently only be for a nominal amount. In addition, Lend Lease RE will only have a right to be indemnified out of the assets of the Lend Lease Trust in respect of its liabilities under the Guarantee to the extent that such liabilities are properly incurred (although the Board of Directors of Lend Lease RE has resolved that the giving of such guarantee constitutes the proper performance of its obligations as trustee and responsible entity of the

14

Lend Lease Trust). Furthermore, Lend Lease RE’s right of indemnity may be lost if it commits a breach of trust. In such circumstances the assets of the relevant trust may only be available to satisfy claims under the Guarantee upon the Lend Lease RE first rectifying such breach of trust. Lend Lease RE is not liable to satisfy any obligation or liability from its personal assets, except to the extent that the obligation or liability is not satisfied because there is a reduction in the extent of Lend Lease RE’s indemnification out of the assets of the Lend Lease Trust as a result of any fraud, negligence or breach of trust on the part of Lend Lease RE.

In the case of any other New Guarantor which may enter into and provide its guarantee in its capacity as trustee, its liability will be similarly limited to the assets of the relevant trust of which it is trustee (subject to the exceptions described above).

Notes may be redeemed prior to their stated maturity

The Terms and Conditions of the Notes provide that the Issuer may elect to redeem:

  • all of the Notes, prior to their maturity date, in the event that the Issuer becomes obliged to pay additional amounts as provided or referred to in Condition 6.2 as a result of a Change of Law;

  • all of the Notes, prior to their maturity date, following a Change of Control Put Event, if 80 per cent or more in principal amount of the Notes outstanding immediately prior to the Change of Control Put Event have been redeemed pursuant to the put option as set out in Condition 6.3; and

  • any or all of the Notes, prior to their maturity date, at any time, for their Early Call Amounts, in accordance with Condition 6.4.

An optional redemption feature is likely to limit the market value of the Notes. During any period when the Issuer may elect to redeem the Notes, the market value of such Notes generally will not rise substantially above the price at which they can be redeemed. This also may be true prior to any redemption period.

The Issuer may be expected to redeem the Notes when its cost of borrowing is lower than the interest rate of the Notes. At those times, an investor generally would not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds at an effective interest rate as high as the interest rate on the Notes being redeemed and may only be able to do so at a significantly lower rate. Potential investors should consider reinvestment risk in light of other investments available at that time.

Modification, waivers and substitution

The Deed Poll contains provisions for calling meetings of Holders to consider matters affecting their interests. These provisions permit defined majorities to bind all Holders including Holders who did not attend and vote at the relevant meeting and Holders who voted in a manner contrary to the majority.

The Terms and Conditions also provide that the Issuer may, without the consent of Holders, agree to amend or vary the Terms and Conditions applicable to a Note (i) for the purposes of correcting any manifest error or (ii) where the amendment is of a formal, minor or technical nature, or is made to cure any ambiguity or correct or supplement any defective or inconsistent provision and does not materially prejudice the interests of the Holders.

EU Savings Directive

Under EC Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income (the EU Savings Directive ), Member States are required to provide to the tax authorities of another Member State details of payments of interest (or similar income) paid by a person within its jurisdiction to an individual resident in that other Member State. However, for a transitional period, Luxembourg and Austria are instead required (unless during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in relation to such payments (the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the conclusion of certain other agreements relating to information exchange with certain other countries). A number of non-EU countries and territories including Switzerland have adopted similar measures (a withholding system in the case of Switzerland).

The European Commission has proposed certain amendments to the EU Savings Directive which may, if implemented, amend or broaden the scope of the requirements described above.

If a payment were to be made or collected through a Member State which has opted for a withholding system and an amount of, or in respect of, tax were to be withheld from that payment, neither the Issuer, any Paying Agent nor any other person would be obliged to pay additional amounts with respect to any Note as a

15

result of the imposition of such withholding tax. The Issuer is required to maintain a Paying Agent in a Member State that is not obliged to withhold or deduct tax pursuant to the EU Savings Directive (if there is any such Member State).

Change of law

The Terms and Conditions of the Notes are based on New South Wales law in the Commonwealth of Australia in effect as at the date of this Offering Circular. No assurance can be given as to the impact of any possible judicial decision or change to New South Wales law or administrative practice after the date of this Offering Circular.

Limitation in ability to redeem Notes

The Issuer must redeem the Notes on the Maturity Date, on the request of a Holder if a Change of Control Put Event occurs or on the occurrence of an Event of Default. The Issuer cannot assure Holders that, if required, it would have sufficient cash or other financial resources at any such time or would be able to arrange financing to redeem the Notes in cash.

Insolvency laws

In the event that the Issuer or a Guarantor becomes insolvent, insolvency proceedings will be governed by Australian law (in the case of the Issuer or a Parent), the laws of England (in the case of Lend Lease Europe Finance plc) or the laws of the United States (in the case of Lend Lease (US) Capital, Inc.). Potential investors should be aware that insolvency laws differ from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. In particular, the insolvency laws of each of these jurisdictions contain voluntary administration and/or moratorium procedures which provide for the potential reorganisation of insolvent companies. The procedures available under the laws of those jurisdictions differ to varying degrees from each other and from similar procedures available under the insolvency laws of other jurisdictions. Further, potential investors should be aware that Australia’s insolvency laws are not generally applicable to trusts, and accordingly the procedures applicable upon an insolvency of Lend Lease Trust would differ significantly from the insolvency procedures applicable to companies.

Risks related to the market generally

Set out below is a brief description of certain market risks, including liquidity risk, exchange rate risk, interest rate risk and credit risk.

The secondary market generally

Although approval in-principle has been received for the listing and quotation of the Notes on the Official List of the SGX-ST, there can be no assurance that the Issuer will be able to maintain a listing and quotation of the Notes on the Official List of the SGX-ST, and even if listed, the Notes may have no established trading market when issued, and one may never develop. If a market does develop, it may not be very liquid. Therefore, investors may not be able to sell their Notes easily or at prices that will provide them with a yield comparable to similar investments that have a developed secondary market. Illiquidity may have a severely adverse effect on the market value of the Notes.

Exchange rate risks and exchange controls

The Issuer will pay principal and interest on the Notes and the Guarantors will make any payments under the Guarantee in Singapore dollars. This presents certain risks relating to currency conversions if an investor’s financial activities are denominated principally in a currency or currency unit (the Investor’s Currency ) other than Singapore dollars. These include the risk that exchange rates may significantly change (including changes due to devaluation of Singapore dollars or revaluation of the Investor’s Currency) and the risk that authorities with jurisdiction over the Investor’s Currency may impose or modify exchange controls. An appreciation in the value of the Investor’s Currency relative to Singapore dollars would decrease (i) the Investor’s Currency-equivalent interest on the Notes, (ii) the Investor’s Currency-equivalent value of the principal payable on the Notes and (iii) the Investor’s Currency-equivalent market value of the Notes.

Government and monetary authorities may impose (as some have done in the past) exchange controls that could adversely affect an applicable exchange rate. As a result, investors may receive less interest or principal than expected, or no interest or principal.

16

Interest rate risks

Investment in Notes with fixed interest rate payments involves the risk that subsequent changes in market interest rates may adversely affect the value of such Notes.

Credit ratings may not reflect all risks

One or more independent credit rating agencies may assign credit ratings to the Notes. The ratings may not reflect the potential impact of all risks related to structure, market, additional factors discussed above, and other factors that may affect the value of the Notes. A credit rating is not a recommendation to buy, sell or hold securities and may be revised or withdrawn by the rating agency at any time.

Legal investment considerations may restrict certain investments

The investment activities of certain investors are subject to legal investment laws and regulations, or review or regulation by certain authorities. Each potential investor should consult its legal advisers to determine whether and to what extent (i) Notes are legal investments for it, (ii) Notes can be used as collateral for various types of borrowing and (iii) other restrictions apply to its purchase or pledge of any Notes. Financial institutions should consult their legal advisers or the appropriate regulators to determine the appropriate treatment of Notes under any applicable risk-based capital or similar rules.

Risks relating to unaudited interim financial statements

Any published unaudited interim financial statements of the Issuer or the Group (whether prepared on a consolidated or a non-consolidated basis) which are, from time to time, deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Offering Circular, whilst reviewed by the auditors, will not have been audited by the auditors of the Issuer or the Group. Accordingly, there can be no assurance that, had an audit been conducted in respect of such financial statements, the information presented therein (or extracted therefrom and set out in this Offering Circular) would not have been materially different, and investors should not place undue reliance on them.

There can be no assurance that the Notes will be treated as “qualifying debt securities”

The Notes should be “qualifying debt securities” for the purposes of the Income Tax Act, Chapter 134 of Singapore ( ITA ), subject to the fulfilment of certain conditions more particularly described in the section “ Taxation – Singapore Taxation ”. However, there can be no assurance that such Notes will continue to enjoy the tax concessions should the relevant tax laws be amended or revoked at any time.

17

FORM OF THE NOTES

The Notes will be issued in registered form, constituted by the Deed Poll and on the Terms and Conditions contained in the Deed Poll. The Terms and Conditions are set out in “Terms and Conditions of the Notes”.

The Notes will be offered and sold in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act ( Regulation S ), which will be sold to non-U.S. persons outside the United States, and the Issuer will issue a global note certificate to evidence the issue of the Notes (a Global Certificate ). Until 40 days after the completion of distribution, an offer or sale of Notes within the United States by any dealer (whether or not participating in the offering) may violate the Investment Company Act or the registration requirements of the Securities Act and neither the Notes nor beneficial interests in the Notes may be offered or sold to, or for the account or benefit of, a U.S. person and such Global Certificate will bear a legend regarding such restrictions on transfer.

The Notes will be registered in the name of a nominee of a common depositary of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg, and the Global Certificate will be deposited with such common depositary. Notes represented by the Global Certificate may not, except in the circumstances described below, be transferred and persons wishing to acquire an interest in the Notes must do so by acquiring a beneficial ownership interest in t h e Notes through, or through a nominee in, those Clearing Systems in accordance with the rules and procedures of those Clearing Systems. The rights of Holders of such Notes, and of all persons claiming interests in the Notes will be subject to the rules and procedures of those Clearing Systems.

Payments of principal, interest or any other amount in respect of the Notes will be made solely to or as directed by the person shown on the Register as the registered Holder of the Notes on the Record Date for the payment. Holders of beneficial ownership interests in the Notes must look solely to their nominee and/or the applicable Clearing System to receive such payment and none of the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Paying Agent or the Registrar will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to, or payments or deliveries made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

Accordingly investors in the Notes should ensure they are familiar with, and able to accept, the rules and procedures of Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg and the terms upon which any nominee of such investor holds interests in the Notes for that investor in those Clearing Systems.

Accountholders of Clearstream, Luxembourg or Euroclear who have Notes evidenced by the Global Certificate and held on behalf of such Clearing System credited to their accounts with such Clearing System ( beneficial owners ) will be entitled in the circumstances described below to have title to the Notes registered in their names in whole but not in part, upon the occurrence of an Exchange Event. For these purposes, Exchange Event means that (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) the Issuer has been notified that Euroclear and Clearstream, Luxembourg have been closed for business for a continuous period of 14 days (other than by reason of holiday, statutory or otherwise) or have announced an intention permanently to cease business or have in fact done so and, in any case, no successor or alternative clearing system is available. The Issuer will promptly give notice to Holders in accordance with the Terms and Conditions if an Exchange Event occurs. In the event of the occurrence of an Exchange Event, Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg (as applicable, and in any case acting on the instructions of a beneficial owner) may give notice to the Registrar requesting the Notes be transferred into the names of the persons recognised by those Clearing Systems as the beneficial holders of the Notes. Any such exchange shall occur not less than 60 days after the date of receipt of the application by the Registrar.

General

For so long as any Note is represented by a Global Certificate held on behalf of Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg, the Deed Poll and the Terms and Conditions shall apply subject to the modifications set out below.

Holders

Each person (other than Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg) who is for the time being shown in the records of Euroclear or Clearstream, Luxembourg, as the case may be, as the holder of a particular nominal amount of such Notes (in which regard any certificate or other document issued by Euroclear and/or Clearstream, Luxembourg as to the nominal amount of such Notes standing to the account of any person shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes save in the case of manifest error) shall be treated by the Issuer, the Guarantors and their respective agents as (and such person shall be deemed to be) the Holder of such nominal amount of such Notes for the purpose of enforcing the right of exchange set out in the Global Certificate.

18

Meetings

Prior to an Exchange Event occurring, beneficial owners (or the representative of any such person) on confirmation of entitlement and proof of his identity may attend and speak (but not vote) at any meeting of Holders.

Redemption at Option of the Holders

The Holders’ put option in Condition 6.3 may be exercised by the Holder of the Notes represented by the Global Certificate giving notice to the Issuer and Registrar of the principal amount of Notes in respect of which the option is exercised and presenting the Global Certificate for endorsement within the time limits specified in such Conditions and the principal amount of the Notes will be reduced in the Register accordingly.

Notices

So long as Notes are represented by the Global Certificate, notices to the Holders of such Notes may be given by delivery of the relevant notice to the Clearing System for communication by it to entitled accountholders in substitution for notification, as required by the Conditions, except that the Issuer shall also ensure that all notices are duly published in a manner which complies with the rules and regulations of any stock exchange or other relevant authority on which the Notes are for the time being listed and/or admitted to trading.

19

( Initial Guarantors ) pursuant to a deed poll entitled ‘Deed Poll for Registered Notes’ dated 20 July 2012 ( Deed Poll ) and executed by the Issuer and each of the Initial Guarantors.

The initial tranche of Notes are the subject of the Offering Circular and will be evidenced by a Global Certificate. The Issuer may issue further tranches of Notes under the Deed Poll on terms that they shall be consolidated with and form part of a single series with the Notes initially issued and any such tranche will be the subject of a separate Supplemental Offering Circular.

Each Holder of a Note is deemed to have notice of, and to be bound by, all the provisions contained in the Deed Poll (including these Conditions and the Meeting Provisions), the Offering Circular and the Global Certificate. Copies of the Deed Poll, the Offering Circular and the Global Certificate are available for inspection by Holders during normal business hours at the offices of the Registrar and (upon reasonable prior notice) the Issuer.

A person becoming entitled to a Note as a consequence of the death or bankruptcy or the liquidation or winding up (as applicable) of a Holder or of a vesting order, or a person administering the estate of a Holder and entitled by law to do so, may, subject to Condition 4.3, apply for the transfer of the Note as if it was the Holder of the Note or, if so entitled, become registered as the Holder of the Note upon producing such evidence as to that entitlement or status as the Registrar considers sufficient.

5 Interest

5.1 General

Each Note bears interest in accordance with this Condition 5 at the Interest Rate from and including its Interest Commencement Date to but excluding its due date for redemption.

5.2 Fixed Coupon Amount

The amount of interest payable on a Note in respect of each complete Interest Period (other than the first Interest Period of any further tranche of Notes for which the applicable Supplemental Offering Circular specifies a broken amount is payable) is S$231.25 in respect of each S$10,000 in principal amount of the Note.

5.3 Interest for incomplete Interest Periods

Whenever it is necessary to calculate interest on a Note for less than a complete Interest Period, such interest will be calculated by multiplying the outstanding principal amount of the Note as at the first day of the Interest Period by the Interest Rate and then multiplying the resulting product by the Day Count Fraction.

5.4 Accrual and payment

Interest on a Note accrues on a daily basis and is payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date and on the date of redemption of the Note.

  • (i) which is required by reason of the payment being made more than 30 days after the due date, provided that the Issuer is not in breach of its obligation to make the payment under this Condition 8 and the deduction or withholding would not have been required had payment been made by the 30th day after the due date;

2 Under Australian Accounting Standards, resident and accommodation bond liabilities are required to be classified as current liabilities as residents may depart the accommodation at any time, notwithstanding that history has shown that residents stay for an average period of 11 years in independent living units, seven years in serviced apartments and three years in aged care facilities (as disclosed in the 31 December 2011 half year financial report). Resident liabilities, which are net of deferred management fees receivable from residents, comprised A$2.2 billion of total balance of resident and accommodation bond liabilities (A$2.3 billion) at 31 December 2011. These liabilities are repayable out of the amounts paid to the Group by incoming retirement village residents for the right to occupy these properties. The gross value of these properties, which are classified as non-current assets, was A$3.1 billion at 31 December 2011.

56

Impact of the Issue on Lend Lease

The net proceeds from the issue of Notes will be applied by Lend Lease for general business purposes.

The impact on the Lend Lease consolidated statement of financial position, assuming the issue of the Notes had completed on 31 December 2011, would have been to increase Cash and Cash Equivalents and non current Borrowings and Financing Arrangements by A$211.6 million to A$1,462.8 million and A$1,446.7 million respectively, excluding the impact of issue costs.

Capital management

Lend Lease aims to maintain a diversified debt portfolio that enables it to access a range of debt markets and specific instruments to meet its ongoing business requirements and investment opportunities. The Group maintains an active capital management strategy, with a policy of having a maximum gearing ratio (net debt, divided by total tangible assets less cash) of 20%. As at 31 December 2011 the Group had a gearing ratio of 3.4% (as defined above). “Net debt” is defined for these purposes as borrowings, including certain other financial liabilities, less cash.

As at 31 December 2011 the Group had liquidity of A$2.4 billion, comprising cash of A$1.2 billion and undrawn facilities of A$1.2 billion. Since 31 December 2011 the Group has invested capital, in the ordinary course, in its development pipeline. This investment has been funded with cash and bank credit facilities, resulting in a reduction in cash reserves and increase in borrowings which should be reflected in an increase in the value of the Group’s development inventory.

The actual cash and Borrowings position of Lend Lease will vary at any time due to underlying business cash flows. Lend Lease’s gearing is expected to increase in the short term compared to 31 December 2011 as it invests in its development project pipeline.

The Group’s strategy is to maintain strong diversification in debt capital across bank and debt capital markets. Lend Lease also maintains a strategy of geographically diversifying its capital markets debt. The issue of the Notes is consistent with this strategy in addition to the Group's existing US Private Placement and UK bond facilities.

Lend Lease maintains a strategy to actively manage its asset base and recycle capital. Since 2006 Lend Lease has recycled approximately A$3.0 billion in assets off its balance sheet, including A$0.8 billion in the six months ended 31 December 2011.

Financing requirements and other senior debt

Lend Lease generally centralises its external borrowings and on-lends the borrowed funds within the Group to fund its operations and businesses. The Issuer and certain other wholly-owned Subsidiaries of the Lend Lease Group act as the principal financing entities for the Group ( Financing Subsidiaries ), raising indebtedness through external borrowings or other financings and on-lending it to other Lend Lease entities to fund the Group’s operating businesses. The borrowings of each Financing Subsidiary are generally guaranteed by each other Financing Subsidiary and by the Parents. Each of the current Financing Subsidiaries other than the Issuer is an Initial Guarantor.

The Financing Subsidiaries’ borrowings and the guarantees of those borrowings are generally on an unsecured basis, but may be secured subject to the terms of the applicable negative pledge set out in Condition 3.3 and other undertakings which apply to Lend Lease financing arrangements.

Borrowings may also be undertaken by Subsidiaries that are not Guarantors and such borrowings may (subject to the negative pledge and the priority indebtedness covenant set out in Condition 3) be secured or unsecured.

The table below sets out the debt maturity profile of Lend Lease’s drawn and undrawn committed facilities as at 31 December 2011 before the issuance of the Notes.

The Commercial Notes and Bank Credit Facilities set out above are unsecured obligations of the Group and are guaranteed by the Parents and the Financing Subsidiaries (other than the relevant issuer or borrower for the applicable Commercial Notes or Bank Credit Facilities). The table excludes other financial liabilities relating to leased assets of the Group of A$105.0 million and a lease liability of A$128.4 million (£82.2 million) in respect of the assets of the Bluewater shopping centre.

Subject to the negative pledge, financial undertakings and limitations on certain indebtedness in Conditions 3.3, 3.4 and 3.5, and subject to other applicable negative pledge covenants, financial undertakings and limitations on indebtedness contained in Lend Lease’s other financing arrangements and subject to the availability of finance, Lend Lease could increase its borrowings or restructure its borrowing arrangements at any time.

58

DESCRIPTION OF THE ISSUER

The Issuer is the principal financing subsidiary within Lend Lease in Australia, undertaking external and internal borrowings and on-lending the borrowed funds within the Group to fund its operations and businesses.

As a result of these activities the Issuer has significant assets (principally in respect of loans made by it to other members of the Group) and liabilities (principally in respect of its external borrowings).

The Issuer’s borrowings are generally guaranteed by each Parent and certain other financing subsidiaries of the Parents.

DESCRIPTION OF THE GROUP

PROFILE OF THE LEND LEASE GROUP

Note: References to Lend Lease and the Group in this section are to Lend Lease Corporation, Lend Lease Responsible Entity Limited, Lend Lease Trust and their respective Subsidiaries.

Lend Lease is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange ( ASX ) and has a market capitalisation of approximately A$4.0 billion as at 10 July 2012. The Group was founded in 1958 and today is an integrated property and infrastructure group with operations in Australia, Asia, EMEA (Europe, Middle East and Africa) and the Americas. Lend Lease currently employs more than 18,000 people around the world and manages an extensive portfolio of assets.

Lend Lease offers a range of services across the property and infrastructure spectrum including development, investment management, construction, asset & property management and ownership. Its projects span sectors from retail, commercial to residential and retirement. Lend Lease is also involved in partnerships with the public sector to deliver essential infrastructure such as hospitals and military communities through the Public Private Partnerships ( PPP ) procurement model.

Overview of Group structure

Lend Lease moved to a stapled entity structure in November 2009 whereby the shares of Lend Lease Corporation and the units of Lend Lease Trust were stapled together on a one-for-one basis and now trade together as a single security.

The stapling structure was adopted as a result of the Australian regulatory environment, most particularly because it takes advantage of the ‘flow-through’ tax treatment afforded to some trusts under Australian law. The flow-through treatment means that the income derived from the passive assets of the trust is taxed in the hands of the individual security holders at their marginal tax rate rather than being taxed in the hands of Lend Lease at the company tax rate. Lend Lease adopted the stapled structure in November 2009 to enable the Group to be more flexible in how it holds passive assets in the future, placing the Group in a better position to generate yield enhancement opportunities going forward.

Although the trust structure positions Lend Lease for growth using a more efficient vehicle, the Group does not intend to become part of the listed property trust sector.

Overview of Lend Lease’s operating segments

Lend Lease's integrated business model is organised in four business lines: development, construction, investment management and infrastructure development.

Further information about these business lines is provided below.

Strategy

Lend Lease aims to be a leading international property and infrastructure group. The key elements of this strategy are:

  • to be within the top three positions of the Group’s chosen market sectors and segments in quality and market share;

  • to concentrate on defined geographies within the four core regions, Australia, Asia, EMEA and the Americas;

  • to focus on those sectors and areas where the market size and dynamics permit Lend Lease to establish competitive value propositions; and

  • to operate and invest in the property and infrastructure subsectors where Lend Lease has or is building core capabilities. For property these include retail, office, residential, retirement apartments and industrial. For infrastructure this includes social (for example, health) and economic (for example, roads, rail and terminals).

Trends underpinning strategy

Lend Lease’s strategy is underpinned by five key trends.

and

Increasing urban density is creating strong demand for urban regeneration.

and

Demand for retirement homes and associated services will increase rapidly.
Lend Lease is the largest for-profit owner and operator of senior living communities in

engineering construction sector.

Lend Lease’s strategic pathway

Lend Lease has a well defined pathway to achieve its strategic goals. This strategy was introduced in May 2009. The strategy is focused on a three stage strategic pathway of “Restore, Build and Lead”. The first stage, “Restore”, is complete with the restructure and realignment of the Group’s businesses across its core regions. Lend Lease is now focusing on the “Build” phase, which seeks to reshape the portfolio, grow core platforms, invest in people and deliver operational excellence. Significant achievements have already been made, including through the acquisition of the Lend Lease Infrastructure business and recent management appointments. The final phase, “Lead”, will focus on Group outperformance as a world class property and infrastructure solutions company providing a strong, integrated offering and trusted investment management platform.

Lend Lease seeks to operate in accordance with three key principles, being safety, sustainability and diversity.

Safety

Lend Lease is committed to operating a safe working environment wherever the Group has a presence. Safety is central to the Group’s business approach and is embedded in the Group’s decision-making. The Group seeks to ensure all its workers can go home without incident or injury.

Sustainability

Sustainability is a key part of the way that Lend Lease does business. Lend Lease considers environmental, social, ethical and financial impacts are important considerations.

65

Diversity

At Lend Lease diversity is defined as all the ways in which we differ.

Core values

Lend Lease subscribes to a set of core values which have been adopted and promoted across its businesses around the world. They underpin the way in which Lend Lease conducts its business, interacts with stakeholders and teams or individuals operating within the Lend Lease Group. The core values are as follows:

  • Respect

  • Integrity

  • Innovation

  • Collaboration

  • Excellence

  • Trust

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE OF THE LEND LEASE GROUP

Lend Lease’s rigorous corporate governance policies and practices are fundamental to the long term success and prosperity of the Group. Lend Lease continually reviews its governance practices to address its obligations as a responsible corporate entity.

Constitution

The constitutions of the Lend Lease Group set the minimum number of Directors at three. There are currently ten Directors on the Board, comprising one Executive Director and nine Non Executive Directors.

Selection of directors and responsibilities

The Nomination Committee is responsible for the screening of Board candidates and makes recommendations to the Board for the appointment of new Directors and nomination for re-election of existing Directors. All Directors are members of the Nomination Committee. Directors are selected having regard to, among other things, an individual’s skills, experience and expertise, taking account of their breadth of experience and diversity of skills as well as their ability to devote the time necessary to fulfil their duties as a Director. New Directors are nominated by the Board and then stand for election at the Annual General Meeting ( AGM ) following their appointment in order to be confirmed into office. One third of the longest-serving Non Executive Directors must stand for re-election each year.

The Board Charter sets out the role, structure, responsibilities and operation of the Board as well as the function and division of responsibilities between the Board and senior management. The Board delegates authority for certain functions and matters necessary for the day-to-day management of the Group to the Group Chief Executive Officer ( CEO ). The Group CEO then delegates to senior management as required.

Meetings of the Directors and access to information

There are nine scheduled meetings each year and additional meetings are held in between scheduled meetings as required. The number of Directors required to constitute a quorum is three.

All Directors have access to Group information, senior management and employees as required to enable them to fulfil their responsibilities. Management briefings are given at every Board meeting, and Directors are regularly briefed on key business and industry developments and matters material to their role. Any Director may seek external, independent, professional advice at the expense of Lend Lease.

To further facilitate independent decision making by the Board a separate session for Non Executive Directors to meet without management present is scheduled as a permanent agenda item at Board meetings.

66

Ethical standards

The Lend Lease Code of Conduct sets out the standards of conduct expected of its businesses and people, regardless of location. It applies to all Directors and employees of Lend Lease and operates in conjunction with its Core Values and the Employee Conduct Guide. A copy of the Code of Conduct can be found on the Lend Lease website.

Directors are required, upon their appointment, to disclose to Lend Lease any interests or directorships which they have with other organisations and update this information if it changes during the course of the Directorship.

The Lend Lease Securities Trading Policy sets out the circumstances in which Directors and employees may deal in Lend Lease securities. The policy complies with the requirements of the ASX Listing Rules in relation to Securities Trading Policies.

Lend Lease also prohibits Directors, designated executives and employees from entering into transactions or arrangements that operate to limit the economic risk of unvested entitlements to Lend Lease securities. In addition, the Lend Lease Securities Trading Policy prohibits Directors and designated executives from entering into margin loan arrangements in respect of Lend Lease securities.

The Lend Lease Group Political Donations Policy sets a firm and consistent standard across the Group that aims to ensure that public confidence is maintained in the Group and its relationships with governments and community leaders.

Audit arrangements

KPMG is the external auditor of Lend Lease and its controlled entities.

The Risk Management and Audit Committee is responsible for making recommendations to the Board as to the selection, re-appointment or replacement of the auditor and the rotation of the lead audit partner. The audit partner is rotated every five years.

Lend Lease has a comprehensive policy that aims to ensure that services provided by the external auditor do not impact or have the potential to impact upon their independence.

Risk management

The Group uses an enterprise risk management approach to identify, evaluate, address, monitor, quantify and report material business risks to the Risk Management and Audit Committee. The objective of this approach is to enhance stakeholder value through continuous improvement in the Group’s management of risk.

The Group’s corporate risk management is led by the Group Head of Risk and Insurance. Corporate Risk Management liaises with regional CEOs and risk specialists on both business specific and enterprise-wide risks. Corporate Risk Management’s objective is to assist the Group’s businesses to further develop their risk management processes.

Management is responsible for keeping the Board’s Risk Management and Audit Committee informed on a regular basis of material business risks.

Lend Lease uses an online risk matrix to assess, report and monitor risks in the following categories: financial, legal / regulatory, health & safety, performance, environment & community, people, property / business continuity and information technology.

The risk matrix defines the risk tolerance of Lend Lease by setting thresholds for impact and likelihood and defining the material business risks required to be reported to the Board.

Liquidity management

The Group’s liquidity risk exposure is monitored with a view to maintaining sufficient levels of cash and committed credit facilities to meet financial commitments as and when they fall due.

Liquidity risk is reduced through prudent cash management, aiming to ensure sufficient levels of cash are maintained to meet working capital requirements. It also allows flexibility of liquidity by seeking to match maturity profiles of short term investments with cash flow requirements, and timely review and renewal of credit facilities.

TAXATION

Australian Taxation

The following is a summary of the taxation treatment under the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 of Australia and, where applicable, the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 of Australia ( Tax Act ), at the date of this Offering Circular, of payments of interest (as defined in the Tax Act) on the Notes and certain other matters. It is not exhaustive and, in particular, does not deal with the position of certain classes of holders of the Notes (including dealers in securities, custodians or other third parties who hold the Notes on behalf of any absolute beneficial holders of the Notes).

The following is a general guide only and should be treated with appropriate caution. Prospective holders of the Notes should consult their professional advisers on the tax implications of an investment in the Notes for their particular circumstances.

Interest withholding tax

Generally, interest paid in respect of the Notes to either a non-resident or an Australian resident who derives the interest in carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment outside Australia is subject to Australian interest withholding tax ( IWT ) at the rate of 10% under Division 11A of Part III of the Tax Act, unless an exemption is available either under section 128F of the Tax Act or under a tax treaty.

An exemption from IWT is available in respect of the Notes under section 128F of the Tax Act if all o f the following conditions are satisfied:

  1. the Issuer is a resident of Australia when it issues the Notes;

  2. the Issuer is a resident of Australia when interest (as defined in section 128A(1AB) of the Tax Act) is paid. Interest is defined to include amounts in the nature of, or in substitution for, interest and certain other amounts;

  3. the Notes are issued in a manner which satisfies the “public offer test” as outlined in section 128F of the Tax Act. The “public offer test” should be satisfied where the Notes are offered for issue:

  4. (a) to 10 or more persons who are carrying on the business of providing finance, or investing dealing in securities, in the course of operating in financial markets who are not associates each other for the purposes of section 128F(9) of the Tax Act; or

  5. (b) to at least 100 investors who have acquired debentures in the past or are likely to be interested in acquiring debentures; or

  6. (c) as a result of being accepted for listing on a stock exchange, where the Issuer had previously entered into an agreement with a dealer, manager or underwriter, in relation to the placement of the Notes, requiring the Issuer to seek such listing; or

  7. (d) publicly in electronic form, or in another form, that was used by financial markets for dealing in debentures or debt interests; or

  8. (e) to a dealer, manager or underwriter who under an agreement with the Issuer offers to sell the Notes within 30 days by one of the preceding methods;

  9. at the time of the issue of the Notes, the Issuer does not know, or have reasonable grounds to suspect, that the Notes or interests in the Notes were being, or would later be, acquired, directly or indirectly, by an “associate” of the Issuer who is an “Offshore Associate”; and

  10. at the time of the payment of interest, the Issuer does not know, or have reasonable grounds to suspect, that the payee is an “associate” of the Issuer who is an “Offshore Associate”.

“Offshore Associate” means an entity or person who:

  • is either a non-resident associate of the Issuer who does not acquire the Notes, or an interest in the Notes, in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia, or an Australian resident associate of the Issuer who acquires the Notes, or an interest in the Notes, in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment outside Australia; and

73

  • is not acting in the capacity of:

  • in the case of the issue of the Notes referred to in paragraph 4 above – a dealer, manager or underwriter in relation to the placement of the Notes, a clearing house, custodian, funds manager or responsible entity of a registered scheme; or

  • in the case of the payment of interest referred to in paragraph 5 above – a clearing house, paying agent, custodian, funds manager or responsible entity of a registered scheme.

Associates

An “associate” of the Issuer for the purposes of section 128F of the Tax Act refers to entities such as natural persons, companies, trustees and partnerships that by reason of a family or business connection are regarded as associates of a particular entity.

The associate test operates to determine whether an entity is an associate of the Issuer. The associate test also operates to determine whether the potential Holders are themselves associated with each other.

Where the Issuer or Holder is a company, associates of the Issuer/Holder will broadly include:

  • an entity who (together with its associates) holds a majority voting interest in the Issuer/Holder;

  • an entity who (together with its associates) “sufficiently influences” the Issuer/Holder;

  • an entity who is controlled by the Issuer/Holder (and its associates) through a majority voting interest; or

  • an entity that is “sufficiently influenced” by the Issuer/Holder (and its associates).

Subsection 318(6) of the Tax Act provides that:

  • a company is sufficiently influenced by an entity or entities if the company, or its directors, are accustomed or under an obligation (whether formal or informal), or might reasonably be expected, to act in accordance with the directions, instructions or wishes of the entity or entities (whether those directions, instructions or wishes are, or might reasonably be expected to be, communicated directly or through interposed companies, partnerships or trusts)” .

Where the Issuer/Holder is capable of benefiting (whether directly or indirectly) under a trust, associates of the Issuer/Holder will include the trustee of such trusts.

Where the Issuer/Holder is a person or entity who is an “associate” of another person or company which is an “associate” of the Issuer under any of the foregoing, then they will be associates for the purposes of section 128F(9) of the Tax Act.

Compliance with section 128F of the Tax Act

The Notes will be issued in a manner that satisfies the requirements of the exemption from IWT as outlined above.

On that basis, no deduction or withholding in respect of Australian IWT should be required to be made from any payment of principal or interest made by the Issuer in respect of the Notes to Holders who acquire Notes in connection with this offer.

Exemptions under recent tax treaties

Australia has signed new or amended tax treaties ( New Treaties ) with a number of countries ( Specified Countries ), including the United States of America and the United Kingdom. The New Treaties apply to interest derived by a resident of a Specified Country. The New Treaties effectively provide an exemption from IWT for interest derived by:

  • governments of the Specified Countries and certain governmental authorities and agencies of a Specified Country; and

74

  • a “financial institution” which is a resident of the Specified Country and which is unrelated to and dealing wholly independently with the Issuer. The term “financial institution” refers to either a bank or any other form of enterprise which substantially derives its profits by carrying on a business of raising and providing finance. (However, interest under a back-to-back loan or an economically equivalent arrangement will not qualify for this exemption.)

The Australian Federal Treasury maintains a list of Australia’s double tax conventions which provides details of country, status, withholding tax rate limits and Australian domestic implementation. This list is available to the public at the Federal Treasury’s Department’s website at: http://www.treasury.gov.au/PublicationsAndMedia/Publications/2012/Aus-Tax-Treaties.

Payments under the Guarantee

The Australian income tax law does not specifically address whether or not any payment by the Australian resident Guarantors under the Guarantee of amounts in respect of interest on the Notes would be subject to IWT. The ATO has released a Taxation Determination concluding that payments by an Australian resident guarantor in respect of interest on debentures (such as the Notes) should be regarded as interest subject to IWT but that such payments should be entitled to the benefit of the exemption contained in section 128F of the Tax Act if payments of interest in respect of those debentures by the issuer are exempt from IWT under section 128F of the Tax Act.

Payment of additional amounts

If an amount of Australian withholding tax is required to be deducted or withheld by the Issuer (or an Australian resident Guarantor) from payments of interest in relation to the Notes, then the Issuer or Guarantors (as the case may be) must, subject to certain exceptions set out in Condition 8.7 of the Notes, pay an additional amount that would result in the holders of the Notes receiving an amount equal to that which they would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. In such circumstances and subject to the Terms and Conditions, the Issuer will have the option to redeem the Notes.

Deemed interest

There are specific rules that can apply to treat a portion of the purchase price of Notes as interest for withholding tax purposes when certain Notes originally issued at a discount or with a maturity premium or which do not pay interest at least annually are sold to an Australian resident (who does not acquire them in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment outside Australia) or a nonresident who acquires them in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia. These rules do not apply in circumstances where the deemed interest would have been exempt under section 128F of the Tax Act if the Notes had been held to maturity by a non-resident.

Income tax matters

Offshore Holders of the Notes

Assuming that the requirements of section 128F of the Tax Act are satisfied with respect to the Notes, payments of principal and interest (as defined in section 128A(1AB) of the Tax Act) to a Holder who is a non-resident of Australia and who, during the taxable year, does not hold the Notes in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia, will not be subject to Australian income taxes.

A Holder who is a non-resident of Australia and who, during the taxable year, does not hold the Notes in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia, will not be subject to Australian income tax on gains realised during that year on sale or redemption of the Notes, provided that such gains do not have an Australian source. A gain arising on the sale of the Notes by a non-Australian resident Holder to another non-Australian resident where the Notes are sold outside Australia and all negotiations are conducted, and documentation executed, outside Australia would not generally be regarded as having an Australian source.

Australian Holders of the Notes

Australian residents or non-Australian residents who hold the Notes in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia ( Australian Holders ), will be assessable for Australian tax purposes on income either received or accrued due to them in respect of the Notes. Whether income will be recognised on a cash receipts or accruals basis will depend upon the tax status of the particular Holder, the

75

terms and conditions of the Notes, and whether the Taxation of Financial Arrangements ( TOFA ) regime applies to the Holder (see below).

Australian Holders will generally be required to include any gain, and may be entitled to deduct any loss, incurred on disposal of the Notes in calculating their taxable income. The precise rules which give effect to the recognition and timing of such gains and losses will vary depending on the status of the Holder and whether the TOFA rules apply to the Holder.

Special rules apply to the taxation of Australian residents who hold the Notes in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment outside Australia which vary depending on the country in which that permanent establishment is located.

Taxation of foreign exchange gains and losses

Divisions 230, 775 and 960 of the Tax Act contain rules to deal with the taxation consequences of foreign exchange transactions. The rules are complex and may apply to any Holders of the Notes who are Australian residents or non-residents that hold the Notes in the course of carrying on business in Australia. Any such Holder should consult their professional advisers for advice as to how to tax account for any foreign exchange gains or losses arising from their holding of the Notes.

Taxation of financial arrangements

Division 230 of the Tax Act (the TOFA regime) contains tax-timing rules for certain taxpayers to bring to account gains and losses from ‘‘financial arrangements’’. Where it applies, the TOFA regime may impact upon the tax character and tax timing of gains and losses arising from those financial arrangements.

The rules do not apply to certain taxpayers or in respect of certain short term ‘‘financial arrangements’’. They should not, for example, generally apply to holders of Notes who are individuals and certain other entities (for example, certain superannuation entities and managed investment schemes) which do not meet various turnover or asset thresholds, unless they make an election that the rules apply to their ‘‘financial arrangements’’. Potential holders of Notes should seek their own tax advice regarding their own personal circumstances as to whether such an election should be made.

The rules in Division 230 do not alter the rules relating to the imposition of IWT. In particular, the rules do not override the IWT exemption available under section 128F of the Tax Act.

Debt/equity rules

Division 974 of the Tax Act contains tests for characterising debt (for all entities) and equity (for companies) for Australian tax purposes, including for the purposes of dividend withholding tax and IWT. The Notes should be characterised as “debt interests” for the purposes of the tests contained in Division 974, and the returns paid on the Notes are to be “interest” for the purpose of section 128F of the Tax Act. Accordingly, Division 974 is unlikely to affect the Australian tax treatment of holders of the Notes.

Other tax matters

Under Australian laws as presently in effect:

  • death duties — no Notes will be subject to death, estate or succession duties imposed by Australia, or by any

  • political subdivision or authority therein having power to tax, if held at the time of death;

  • stamp duty and other taxes — no ad valorem stamp, issue, registration or similar taxes are payable in Australia on the issue or transfer of any Notes subject to the Note issued being “debt interests” as described above;

  • other withholding taxes on payments in respect of Notes — section 12-140 of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 of Australia (the Taxation Administration Act ) imposes a type of withholding tax at the rate of (currently) 46.5% on the payment of interest on certain registered securities unless the relevant payee has quoted an Australian tax file number ( TFN ) (in certain circumstances), an Australian Business Number ( ABN ) or proof of some other exception (as appropriate). Assuming the requirements of section 128F of the Tax Act are satisfied with respect to the Notes, then the requirements of section 12-140 do not apply to payments to a Holder in registered form who is not a resident of Australia and who does not hold those Notes in the course of carrying on business at or through a permanent establishment in Australia. Payments to other classes of holders of the Notes in registered form may be subject to a

76

withholding where the Holder does not quote a TFN, ABN or provide proof of an appropriate exemption (as appropriate);

  • supply withholding tax — payments in respect of the Notes can be made free and clear of the “supply withholding tax” imposed under section 12-190 of the Taxation Administration Act;

  • goods and services tax ( GST ) — neither the issue nor receipt of the Notes will give rise to a liability for GST in Australia, on the basis that the supply of the Notes will comprise either an input taxed financial supply or (in the case of an offshore subscriber) a GST-free supply. Furthermore, neither the payment of principal or interest by the Issuer, nor the disposal of Notes, would give rise to any GST liability in Australia; and

  • additional withholdings from certain payments to non-residents — section 12-315 of the Taxation Administration Act gives the Governor-General power to make regulations requiring withholding from certain payments to non-residents. However, section 12-315 expressly provides that the regulations will not apply to interest and other payments which are already subject to the current interest withholding tax rules or specifically exempt from those rules. Further, regulations may only be made if the responsible minister is satisfied that the specified payments are of a kind that could reasonably relate to assessable income of foreign residents. The regulations promulgated prior to the date of this Offering Circular are not relevant to any payments in respect of the Notes. Any further regulations should also not apply to repayments of principal under the Notes, as in the absence of any issue discount, such amounts will generally not be reasonably related to assessable income. The possible application of any future regulations to the proceeds of any sale of the Notes will need to be monitored.

EU Savings Directive

Under EC Council Directive 2003/48/EC on the taxation of savings income ( the EU Savings Directive ), Member States are required to provide to the tax authorities of another Member State details of payments of interest (or similar income) paid by a person within its jurisdiction to an individual resident in that other Member State. However, for a transitional period, Luxembourg and Austria are instead required (unless during that period they elect otherwise) to operate a withholding system in relation to such payments (the ending of such transitional period being dependent upon the conclusion of certain other agreements relating to information exchange with certain other countries). A number of non-EU countries and territories, including Switzerland, have adopted similar measures (a withholding system in the case of Switzerland).

The European Commission has proposed certain amendments to the EU Savings Directive which may, if implemented, amend or broaden the scope of the requirements described above.

Singapore Taxation

The statements below are general in nature and are based on certain aspects of current tax laws in Singapore and administrative guidelines issued by the Monetary Authority of Singapore ( MAS ) in force as at the date of this Offering Circular and are subject to any changes in such laws or administrative guidelines, or the interpretation of those laws or guidelines, occurring after such date, which changes could be made on a retroactive basis. Neither these statements nor any other statements in this Offering Circular are intended or are to be regarded as advice on the tax position of any holder of the Notes or of any person acquiring, selling or otherwise dealing with the Notes or on any tax implications arising from the acquisition, sale or other dealings in respect of the Notes. The statements made herein do not purport to be a comprehensive or exhaustive description of all the tax considerations that may be relevant to a decision to subscribe for, purchase, own or dispose of the Notes and do not purport to deal with the tax consequences applicable to all categories of investors, some of which (such as dealers in securities or financial institutions in Singapore which have been granted the relevant Financial Sector Incentive tax incentive(s)) may be subject to special rules or tax rates. Prospective holders of the Notes are advised to consult their own professional tax advisers as to the Singapore or other tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership or disposal of the Notes, including the effect of any foreign, state or local tax laws to which they are subject. It is emphasised that neither the Issuer, the Guarantors, the Joint Lead Managers nor any other persons involved in the issue of the Notes accept responsibility for any tax effects or liabilities resulting from the subscription, purchase, holding or disposal of the Notes .

Interest and other payments

Interest, discount income, “prepayment fee,” “redemption premium” and “break cost” (references in this tax disclosure to the terms in quotation marks as defined in the ITA) derived by a Holder who is not resident in Singapore and who does not have any permanent establishment in Singapore is not subject to tax, as such income is likely to be regarded as arising from a source outside Singapore. If, however, such income should be

77

regarded as being sourced in Singapore, they can nonetheless be exempt from tax, including withholding of tax, if the Notes qualify as “qualifying debt securities” for the purposes of the ITA as discussed below.

Subject to the following paragraphs, under Section 12(6) of the ITA, the following payments are deemed to be derived from Singapore:

  • (a) any interest, commission, fee or any other payment in connection with any loan or indebtedness or with any arrangement, management, guarantee, or service relating to any loan or indebtedness which is (i) borne, directly or indirectly, by a person resident in Singapore or a permanent establishment in Singapore (except in respect of any business carried on outside Singapore through a permanent establishment outside Singapore or any immovable property situated outside Singapore) or (ii) deductible against any income accruing in or derived from Singapore; or

  • (b) any income derived from loans where the funds provided by such loans are brought into or used in Singapore.

Such payments, where made to a person not known to the paying party to be a resident in Singapore for tax purposes, are generally subject to withholding tax in Singapore. The rate at which tax is to be withheld for such payments (other than those subject to the 15% final withholding tax described below) to non-resident persons (other than non-resident individuals) is 17% with effect from Year of Assessment 2010. The applicable rate for non-resident individuals is 20%. However, if the payment is derived by a person not resident in Singapore otherwise than from any trade, business, profession or vocation carried on or exercised by such person in Singapore and is not effectively connected with any permanent establishment in Singapore of that person, the payment is subject to a final withholding tax of 15%. The rate of 15% may be reduced by applicable tax treaties.

Notwithstanding the above, with effect from 29 December 2009, the said deeming provisions of Section 12(6) of the ITA would not apply to payments for any arrangement, management, service or guarantee relating to any loan or indebtedness, where (a) the arrangement, management or service is performed outside Singapore or (b) the guarantee is provided, for or on behalf of a person resident in Singapore or a permanent establishment in Singapore by a non-resident person who:

(i) is not an individual, is not incorporated, formed or registered in Singapore; and

  • (ii) (A) does not by himself or in association with others, carry on a business in Singapore and does not have a permanent establishment in Singapore; or

  • (B) carries on a business in Singapore (by himself or in association with others) or has a permanent establishment in Singapore, but (1) the arrangement, management or service is not performed through or (2) the giving of the guarantee is not effectively connected with, that business carried on in Singapore or that permanent establishment.

Certain Singapore-sourced investment income derived by individuals from financial instruments is exempt from tax, including:

  • (a) interest from debt securities derived on or after 1 January 2004;

  • (b) discount income (not including discount income arising from secondary trading) from debt securities derived on or after 17 February 2006; and

  • (c) prepayment fee, redemption premium and break cost from debt securities derived on or after 15 February 2007,

except where such income is derived through a partnership in Singapore or is derived from the carrying on of a trade, business or profession.

The terms “break cost”, “prepayment fee” and “redemption premium” are defined in the ITA as follows:

“break cost”, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, means any fee payable by the issuer of the securities on the early redemption of the securities, the amount of which is determined by any loss or liability incurred by the holder of the securities in connection with such redemption;

78

“prepayment fee”, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, means any fee payable by the issuer of the securities on the early redemption of the securities, the amount of which is determined by the terms of the issuance of the securities; and

“redemption premium”, in relation to debt securities and qualifying debt securities, means any premium payable by the issuer of the securities on the redemption of the securities upon their maturity.

References to “break cost”, “prepayment fee” and “redemption premium” in this Singapore taxation section have the same meaning as defined in the ITA.

As the issue of the Notes is jointly lead-managed by DBS Bank Ltd., Goldman Sachs (Singapore) Pte. and Merrill Lynch (Singapore) Pte. Ltd., each of which is a Financial Sector Incentive (Bond Market) Company (as defined in the ITA), and the Notes are issued prior to 31 December 2013, the Notes should be qualifying debt securities for the purposes of the ITA, to which the following treatments shall apply:

  • (a) subject to certain prescribed conditions having been fulfilled (including the furnishing by the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller of Income Tax in Singapore (the Comptroller ) may direct, of a return on debt securities for the Notes within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Notes as the Comptroller may require to the Comptroller and the MAS and the inclusion by the Issuer in all offering documents relating to the Notes of a statement to the effect that where interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost from the Notes is derived by a person who is not resident in Singapore and who carries on any operation in Singapore through a permanent establishment in Singapore, the tax exemption for qualifying debt securities shall not apply if the non-resident person acquires the Notes using funds from that person’s operations through the Singapore permanent establishment), interest, discount income (not including discount income arising from secondary trading), prepayment fee, redemption premium and break cost (collectively, the Specified Income ) from the Notes, derived by a holder who is not resident in Singapore and (i) who does not have any permanent establishment in Singapore or (ii) carries on any operation in Singapore through a permanent establishment in Singapore but the funds used by that person to acquire the Notes are not obtained from the operation, are exempt from Singapore tax;

  • (b) subject to certain conditions having been fulfilled (including the furnishing by the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller may direct, of a return on debt securities for the Notes within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Notes as the Comptroller may require to the Comptroller and the MAS), Specified Income from the Notes derived by any company or body of persons (as defined in the ITA) in Singapore is subject to tax at a concessionary rate of 10%; and

  • (c) subject to:

  • (i) the Issuer including in all offering documents relating to the Notes a statement to the effect that any person whose interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost (i.e. the Specified Income) derived from the Notes is not exempt from tax shall include such income in a return of income made under the ITA; and

  • (ii) the Issuer, or such other person as the Comptroller may direct, furnishing to the Comptroller and the MAS a return on debt securities for the Notes within such period as the Comptroller may specify and such other particulars in connection with the Notes as the Comptroller may require,

Specified Income derived from the Notes is not subject to withholding of tax by the Issuer.

However, notwithstanding the foregoing:

  • (A) if during the primary launch of the Notes, the Notes are issued to fewer than four persons and 50% or more of the issue of the Notes is beneficially held or funded, directly or indirectly, by related parties of the Issuer, the Notes would not qualify as “qualifying debt securities”; and

  • (B) even though the Notes are “qualifying debt securities”, if, at any time during the tenure of the Notes, 50% or more of the issue of the Notes is beneficially held or funded, directly or indirectly, by any related party(ies) of the Issuer, Specified Income derived from the Notes held by:

  • (1) any related party of the Issuer; or

79

  • (2) any other person where the funds used by such person to acquire the Notes are obtained, directly or indirectly, from any related party of the Issuer,

shall not be eligible for the tax exemption or concessionary rate of tax as described above.

The term “related party”, in relation to a person, means any other person who, directly or indirectly, controls that person, or is controlled, directly or indirectly, by that person, or where he and that other person, directly or indirectly, are under the control of a common person.

Notwithstanding that the Issuer is permitted to make payments of Specified Income in respect of the Notes without deduction or withholding for tax under Section 45 or Section 45A of the ITA, any person whose Specified Income (whether it is interest, discount income, prepayment fee, redemption premium or break cost) derived from the Notes is not exempt from tax is required to include such income in a return of income made under the ITA.

Capital gains

Any gains considered to be in the nature of capital made from the sale of the Notes will not be taxable in Singapore. However, any gains derived by any person from the sale of the Notes which are gains from any trade, business, profession or vocation carried on by that person, if accruing in or derived from Singapore, may be taxable as such gains are considered revenue in nature.

Holders of the Notes who are adopting Singapore Financial Reporting Standard 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement ( FRS 39 ), may for Singapore income tax purposes be required to recognise gains or losses (not being gains or losses in the nature of capital) on the Notes, irrespective of disposal. Please see the section below on “Adoption of FRS 39 treatment for Singapore income tax purposes”.

Adoption of FRS 39 treatment for Singapore income tax purposes

The Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore has issued a circular entitled “Income Tax Implications arising from the adoption of FRS 39 — Financial Instruments: Recognition & Measurement” (the FRS 39 Circular ). Legislative amendments to give effect to the FRS 39 Circular have been enacted in Section 34A of the ITA.

The FRS 39 Circular and Section 34A of the ITA generally apply, subject to certain “opt-out” provisions, to taxpayers who are required to comply with FRS 39 for financial reporting purposes.

According to the FRS 39 Circular, for financial assets on revenue account classified as:

  • (a) “fair value through profit or loss”, gains or losses recognised in the profit and loss account will be taxed or allowed as a deduction even though they are unrealised;

  • (b) “available-for-sale”, only the cumulative gains or losses (which had been recognised in equity) that are transferred to the profit and loss account upon derecognition will be taxed or allowed as a deduction; and

  • (c) “held-to-maturity” and loans, the interest income based on the amount shown in the accounts, which is calculated under the effective interest method under FRS 39, will be taxed.

The FRS 39 Circular refers to the definition of the effective interest method under FRS 39 and states that the “effective interest method” is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial asset or a financial liability and of allocating the interest income or interest expense over the relevant period and the “effective interest rate” is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments of receipts through the expected life of the financial instruments. The calculation includes all fees and points paid or received between parties to the contract that are an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and all other premiums or discounts.

However, for debt securities which are on capital account, the FRS 39 Circular indicates that interest income reflected in the profit and loss account under FRS 39 will be adjusted to that based on the coupon/contractual rate.

In this regard, Section 34A of the ITA provides that where interest from debt securities is chargeable to tax under Section 10(1)(d) of the ITA (i.e. as passive income rather than as income from a trade or business), such interest will be computed based on the contractual interest rate and not the effective interest rate. In this section, “contractual interest rate” in relation to any financial instrument means the interest rate specified in

80

the financial instrument. A gain from discounts or premiums on debt securities, being a gain chargeable to tax under Section 10(1)(d) of the ITA, shall be deemed to accrue only on the maturity or redemption of the debt securities and to be equal to the difference between the amount received on the maturity or redemption of the debt securities and the amount for which the debt securities were issued.

Holders of the Notes who may be subject to the tax treatment under the FRS 39 Circular should consult their own accounting and tax advisers regarding the Singapore income tax consequences of their acquisition, holding or disposal of the Notes.

Estate duty

Singapore estate duty has been abolished with respect to all deaths occurring on or after 15 February 2008.

81

SUBSCRIPTION AND SALE

Subject to the terms and conditions contained in a Subscription Agreement dated 20 July 2012 (the Subscription Agreement ) between the Issuer and the Joint Lead Managers, Notes will be issued by the Issuer to the Joint Lead Managers. Notes may be resold at prevailing market prices, or at prices related thereto, at the time of such resale, as determined by the relevant Joint Lead Manager.

The Issuer will pay each Joint Lead Manager a commission as agreed between them in respect of Notes subscribed by it. The Issuer has agreed to reimburse the Joint Lead Managers for certain of their activities in connection with the issue of the Notes.

The Issuer has agreed to indemnify the Joint Lead Managers against certain liabilities in connection with the offer and sale of any Notes. The Subscription Agreement entitles the Joint Lead Managers to terminate any agreement that they make to subscribe Notes in certain circumstances prior to payment for such Notes being made to the Issuer.

United States

The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act and Lend Lease (US) Capital, Inc. has not been and will not be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.
