LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Investor

On behalf of the Peet Board I am pleased to invite you to invest in Peet by participating in an offer of unsecured, redeemable convertible notes (Peet Notes) (the Offer). The Offer consists of $40 million worth of Peet Notes which is underwritten, with the ability to accept applications for up to a further $10 million worth of Peet Notes which are not underwritten. The Offer, in conjunction with the Company's other capital management initiatives, will be used to fund acquisitions and new developments.

On 1 June, 2011, Peet announced the acquisition of a 50% interest in the 1,244 hectare Flagstone West property, 38km south west of Brisbane (the Acquisition). Motor Trades Association of Australia Superannuation Fund (MTAA Super), the vendor, will remain a 50% owner of the property and a wholly owned Peet subsidiary will become the Development Manager. The Acquisition substantially increases Peet's exposure to the South East Queensland market and expands its Funds Management business.

The Offer of Peet Notes forms part of a broader Capital Management Initiative, which includes the refi nance and extension of Peet's existing bank facilities and a Share Purchase Plan (SPP) which is underwritten to, and capped at, $20 million.

The Offer is being made to Australian residents who are clients of participating brokers and to certain institutional investors in Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong and Singapore. The minimum investment for each applicant is $10,000. The Broker Firm Offer opens on 9 June 2011 and closes at 5:00pm Sydney time on 15 June 2011.

Key terms of the Peet Notes include:

  • Interest payment 9.50% per annum fi xed coupon payable semi-annually in arrears;
  • Maturity fi ve years after the issue date (if not already converted or redeemed);
  • Ranking unsecured, and therefore ranks for payment after the Company's secured creditors are paid. Peet Notes are debt and accordingly rank ahead of Peet Ordinary Shares;
  • Convertibility convertible into Ordinary Shares at any time after 3 months following the issue date at a fi xed Conversion Price of $2.25 (subject to adjustment for certain dilutionary and other capital transactions). The Conversion Price is a 25% premium to the VWAP of Peet Ordinary Shares during the 5 Business Days prior to the date of this prospectus; and
  • Listing Peet Notes will be listed on ASX, however the Peet Notes may be relatively illiquid.

This Prospectus contains further details of the Offer, the terms of the Peet Notes and a description of the risks associated with an investment in Peet Notes and Peet. I encourage you to read the entire Prospectus carefully and consider the risks which are set out in section 5 before deciding whether to participate in the Offer.

If you have any questions in relation to the Offer or this Prospectus, please contact Peter Dumas at Peet Limited on (08) 9420 1111 or the Underwriters (see the Corporate Directory in this Prospectus for contact details).

If you are unsure whether Peet Notes are a suitable investment for you, you should consult your stockbroker, accountant or other professional adviser.

On behalf of the Peet Board, I invite you to consider this investment opportunity.

Yours sincerely

Tony Lennon Chairman Peet Limited

2.2 DEVELOPMENT

Peet's development division comprises owned projects developed by Peet. Peet provides the funding for the land and working capital and returns are generated via profi ts on sale of each lot.

Land may be sourced from public tenders, private sales or off-market negotiations. Peet seeks to structure acquisitions to manage its equity capital effi ciently by purchasing land on deferred terms, purchasing subject to rezoning or long term options on land that is prospective. Working capital is required to develop each stage of a project, before being returned to Peet when lots within the stage settle.

2.3 FUNDS MANAGEMENT

Peet's funds management platform features a direct retail distribution network of around 4,500 active investors, with a history of repeat investment. Currently Peet manages 36 properties on behalf of 31 funds/syndicates and 2 joint ventures.

Peet has successfully raised in excess of $490 million of equity for syndicated projects since 2002, and the on-completion value of Peet's existing managed projects is $6.1 billion1 (if sold at today's prices).

Syndicates

Syndicates, as undertaken by Peet, are generally single purpose entities established to develop and sell identifi ed landholdings. The projects are offered via a product disclosure statement or information memorandum to retail and institutional investors.

Peet earns fees from its syndicates comprising establishment fees (including underwriting fees), ongoing fees (predominantly linked to settled sales) and performance fees (linked to profi ts).

On occasions, Peet may provide bridging fi nance or loans to syndicates. Peet typically co-invests to a limited extent in its retail syndicates.

Peet also has a wholesale funds management platform to complement its existing retail syndication business created via the launch of the $300 million Alkimos Fund in 2008. The Alkimos Fund is also managed by Peet, with MTAA Super as a cornerstone investor. The acquisition of the 50% interest in Flagstone West has more than doubled the Gross Development Value of the wholesale funds business to over $2.5 billion, in today's dollars.

Separately, Peet is currently in negotiations with an institutional investor in respect to acquiring englobo land parcels for the creation of new residential estates. These negotiations are incomplete and there is no certainty as to when, or if, an agreement with the investor will be reached.

Peet is focussed on continuing to grow its funds management platform both by continuing to establish new retail syndicates for small to medium size projects and through its institutional platform for larger, longer dated projects.

Joint ventures

Joint ventures may be formed with government, statutory authorities, private landowners or investors.

Typically, the joint venture party contributes the land and Peet is responsible for working capital requirements. Peet may also invest directly into the joint venture company in certain circumstances.

Peet is typically entitled to fees in consideration for its management of the projects, including development management fees and in some instances performance fees.

2.4 EXPERIENCED PERSONNEL

Peet employs more than 130 people at offi ces located in Perth, Melbourne and Brisbane, with professional project executives responsible for guiding projects through all stages of the development process. Team members are appropriately skilled, with qualifi cations or experience appropriate for the development industry. Peet also ensures that the necessary experts and external consultants such as project engineers, surveyors, planners, urban designers, environmental scientists and landscape architects are engaged to facilitate development.

2.5 DEVELOPMENT APPROACH

Peet transforms its landholdings into vibrant new communities that make the most of their natural environment and create a place for homebuyers of differing budgets and lifestyles.

When developing new communities, Peet seeks out land in areas with important existing or planned infrastructure, such as transport, shopping centres, medical centres and schools. A sound understanding of markets and close relationships with builders also ensures the optimum variety of lot sizes to cater for the different lifestyles and budgets of the target market.

Particular attention is given by Peet to community development, facilities, landscaping and estate presentation and principles of environmental excellence and sustainability are at the forefront of the Company's land development philosophy.

The Company's ongoing commitment to sustainability is well recognised and has earned Peet a number of prestigious awards.

(a) Offer of Peet Notes

An Offer of Peet Notes, underwritten to $40 million and with the ability to accept up to a further $10 million of oversubscriptions.

(b) Restructured Debt Facilities

Peet has received a letter of offer from its banks to consolidate its debt facilities into a $300 million three year facility which will have an expiry date of 30 June 2014. See sections 4.3 and 7.5 for further details and section 5.1 in relation to relevant risks.

The Capital Management Initiative also has the benefi t of diversifying Peet's capital sources and extending Peet's debt maturity profi le from 2.3 years to 3.3 years.1

3.2 GROWTH OPPORTUNITIES AND STRATEGY

Peet is actively looking for investment opportunities across Australia as well as the establishment of new Peet retail syndicates and institutional funds.

Peet has announced the acquisition of a 50% interest in Flagstone West for $45 million (excl. GST) from MTAA Super. MTAA Super will retain a 50% stake. MTAA Super also owns the adjoining site, Flagstone East, which is a partially completed development with approximately 300 lots remaining. Flagstone West and Flagstone East together comprise Flagstone City for the purpose of this Prospectus.

A wholly owned subsidiary of Peet will be appointed Development Manager for Flagstone City.

Over the past three years Peet has established and grown an institutional funds management capability, building on its expertise in retail funds management:

  • 2008 $300m Alkimos Fund launched with MTAA Super as the cornerstone investor; and
  • 2011 $90m Flagstone Fund established with MTAA Super as 50% equity investor (the Acquisition)

Peet will continue to seek to undertake retail syndicates for smaller scale projects, with larger projects funded through the institutional platform.

3.3 FLAGSTONE CITY

Flagstone City is the centre of the future city of Flagstone situated 38km south west of Brisbane and 45km west of the Gold Coast. Greater Flagstone is expected to ultimately comprise approximately 120,000 residents and 50,000 dwellings.

The Greater Flagstone development has the support of the Queensland state government through the Urban Land Development Authority (ULDA). The ULDA was established in 2007 as part of the QLD Housing Affordability Strategy. Greater Flagstone is one of four new city sites in South East Queensland nominated by the State Government as an Urban Development Area, which is being targeted to accelerate the supply of affordable land to satisfy the area's demand for housing. Due to this designation, the area will be subject to a State Government controlled fast track planning regime under the authority of the ULDA.

MTAA Super is the 100% owner of Flagstone East, which has approximately 300 lots remaining to be developed.

SECTION 4: EFFECT OF THE OFFER

4.2 SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND KEY FINANCIAL METRICS

(a) Assets, liabilities and equity

Peet had total assets of $660.5 million, total liabilities of $398.1 million and total equity of $262.4 million as at 31 December 2010. The shareholders' equity based on the pro forma accounts in section 4.1 was $284.2 million. Peet's market capitalisation was $605.9 million at 31 December 2010.

(b) Loans and debt

As at the date of this Prospectus, Peet is not in default on current loan covenants or debt obligations and has not defaulted on previous loan covenants or debt obligations.

(c) Gearing ratios

Peet intends to enter into a revised loan agreement (refer section 7.5) with its lenders which will result in a change in the methodology for calculating its gearing ratio. The gearing analysis below is based on this new methodology using the pro forma accounts.

Peet's gearing covenant in the amended loan document will present its gearing ratio after adjusting the total assets to refl ect the independent market valuation of inventory. As at 31 December 2010, Peet had a gearing ratio, applying independent values rather than historical costs of 33% using the following formula:

Gearing ratio (market value) = Borrowings + Land Vendor Liability - cash Total assets adjusted for market value inventory - cash

While not relevant to Peet's existing or to be amended loan facilities the ratio below is based on its balance sheet with inventories based on historical cost and as at 31 December 2010, Peet had a gearing ratio of 40% using the following formula:

Gearing ratio (historical cost) = Borrowings + Land Vendor Liability - cash Total assets - cash

Based on the pro forma accounts in section 4.1 Peet would have a gearing ratio (market value) of 37% and a gearing ratio (historical cost) of 44% based on the above calculation methodologies.

The gearing ratio indicates the extent to which the assets of Peet are funded by debt. Generally, a higher ratio indicates greater use of borrowings.

(d) Interest cover

As at 31 December 2010, Peet had an interest cover of 3.22 times using the following formula and based on a rolling 12 month fi nancial results:

Interest cover = EBITDA
Net interest paid

Taking into account the actual interest charged on the borrowings and the pro forma effect on interest costs of the SPP, the Acquisition and the offer of Peet Notes as if the transactions occurred at the beginning of the period and assuming no earnings are generated from the Acquisition, Peet would have an interest cover of 2.95 times (due to increased total debt and a higher interest expense on the Peet Notes). This excludes any interest that would have been paid on the Yanchep Syndicate, in accordance with the methodology adopted in calculating interest cover for Peet for reporting to its banks.

Interest cover gives an indication of Peet's ability to meet its interest payments from its earnings. It therefore provides important information about Peet's ability to meet its interest payments from operating cash fl ows. A low interest cover ratio may indicate that Peet could face diffi culties in servicing the interest payable on its debt (including the interest payable on Peet Notes) if earnings decrease or interest rates increase.

4.2 SUMMARY FINANCIAL INFORMATION AND KEY FINANCIAL METRICS CONTINUED

(e) Working capital ratio

Peet has a working capital ratio of 1.53 times calculated before the effect of this Offer of Peet Notes and using the following formula and based on its 31 December 2010 fi nancial statements:

Working capital ratio = Current assets Current liabilities

Based on the pro forma accounts in section 4.1 the working capital ratio would be 1.82.

The working capital ratio indicates whether Peet has suffi cient short-term assets to meet its short-term liabilities. Generally, a higher ratio indicates a greater ability to meet liabilities over the short term (including unexpected liabilities). As calculated above, Peet has a current working capital ratio of 1.82 times (taking into account the Offer), meaning its short-term assets exceed its current short-term liabilities (including the interest payable on Peet Notes) by 1.82 times.

(f) Assets classifi ed as held for sale and their associated liabilities

The assets and liabilities associated with the Peet Yanchep Land Syndicate are currently being classifi ed as held for sale. If in the future it is determined that it is no longer highly probable that the sale would be completed within one year of its initial classifi cation, Peet would reclassify all of the assets and liabilities to their individual categories. The effect on the pro forma accounts were this to happen would be a decrease in current assets and an increase in non-current inventories of $62.3 million and a decrease in current liabilities and an increase to non-current borrowings of $17.6 million. The effect on the pro forma fi nancial ratios would be a decrease in the working capital ratio from 1.82 to 1.48 times and, an increase to the gearing ratio (market value) from 37% to 39% and an increase in the gearing ratio (historical cost) from 44% to 47%. There would be no impact on the interest cover ratio as noted in section 4.2(d).

4.3 PEET'S EXISTING DEBT FACILITIES AND DEBT MATURITY

As part of its Capital Management Initiative, Peet announced on 1 June 2011 the terms of a letter of offer to extend its syndicated bank loans. The key terms of Peet's loan facilities when this is formally agreed will be as follows:

Facility Limit: $300 million
Expiry Date: 30 June 2014
Security: First ranking mortgage debenture and mortgages over direct property assets

The key fi nancial covenants will be as follows:

Gearing Ratio (excluding Notes) 47.5%
Gearing Ratio (including Notes) 52.5%
Interest Cover Ratio (until 30 June 2012) 2.0 times
Interest Cover Ratio (from 1 July 2012) 2.25 times

It is also possible that Peet may incur additional secured debt or grant additional security in respect of existing debt. Any such secured debt will rank ahead of Peet Notes by virtue of that security.

4.4 SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Peet Limited paid a fully franked dividend of 4 cents per share equating to $12.1 million on 20 April 2011. The fi nancial impact of this transaction has not been accounted for in the pro forma fi nancial information at section 4.1.

SECTION 5: RISK FACTORS

There are a number of factors, both specifi c to the Issuer and of a general nature, which may affect the future operating and fi nancial performance of the Issuer and the value of an investment in Peet or Peet Notes. Some of these factors can be mitigated by appropriate commercial action. However, many are outside the control of Peet, are dependent on the policies adopted and approaches taken by regulatory authorities or otherwise cannot be mitigated. This section describes some of the risks associated with an investment in Peet or Peet Notes.

Before deciding to invest in Peet or Peet Notes, prospective investors should consider carefully the following factors, as well as the other information contained in this Prospectus and, if they consider appropriate, take professional advice from their accountant, stockbroker, solicitor or other professional adviser.

5.1 SPECIFIC RISKS

Key risks relating to Peet are set out below. It is not, however, possible to describe all the risks to which Peet and its business may become subject and which may impact adversely on Peet's prospects and performance. Specifi c risk factors which may have a signifi cant impact on the future performance of Peet include the following:

Changes in government policy

Changes in government policy (including fi scal, monetary and regulatory policies at federal, state and local levels), including policies on government land development, public housing, immigration and fi rst homebuyer assistance and delays in the granting of approvals or the registration of subdivision plans may affect the amount and timing of Peet's future profi ts. State government and/or council development contributions may be introduced or increased in jurisdictions, impacting land values and the profi tability of projects.

Rezoning and planning approval delays

The sale of lots in Peet's residential projects depends on achieving rezoning and planning approvals. If these approvals take longer than expected, or are not achieved, Peet's sales volumes and profi tability could be negatively impacted.

Interest rates

Increases in interest rates could have the effect of reducing the affordability and availability of properties for purchasers, therefore reducing demand and the number of lot sales made by Peet and its managed projects. Interest rates also impact on Peet's costs of funds.

Future residential property market conditions

Peet derives earnings from both its owned developments and funds management business based on the future value and sale of residential lots. Should the future market value and sales volumes be lower than expected Peet's earnings and return to investors could be negatively impacted.

Property values

Unanticipated factors can infl uence the realisable value of the assets of Peet. These include:

  • the profi t and risk factors that are considered appropriate by professional valuers, for any properties held by Peet, in response to changes in market conditions;
  • changes in the conditions of town planning consents applicable to Peet's projects, as a consequence of changes to council policies;
  • development cost increases including, but not limited to, construction, consultants, imposition of taxes and increases to state charges will reduce profi tability of Peet;
  • the presence of previously unidentifi ed threatened fl ora and fauna species, which may infl uence the amount of developable land on major projects;
  • the activities of resident action groups;
  • general cost increases;
  • archaeological or ethnographic claims, including native title claims; and
  • land resumptions for roads and major infrastructure, which cannot be adequately offset by the amount of compensation eventually paid, if any.

The Acquisition does not proceed

There is a risk the Acquisition will not proceed, even though it is subject to a binding contract. If the Acquisition does not proceed, Peet will use the proceeds from the Capital Management Initiative to pay down debt in the short term and fund other acquisitions and developments in the medium term. This will impact the pro forma fi nancial information outlined in section 4 and certain benefi ts to Peet outlined in sections 3.4 and 3.5 will not be realised.

5.1 SPECIFIC RISKS CONTINUED

Cancellation of Acquisition

The purchase of the 50% interest in Peet Flagstone City Pty Limited may not proceed. If the Acquisition does not proceed, Peet may forfeit the deposit payable under the transaction documents (refer to section 7.3).

Increase in unemployment rate

Sales of lots in Peet's residential projects may be negatively impacted by a sustained increase in the unemployment rate in Australia, particularly in key markets where Peet has residential projects. This impact could be through a reduction in the number of lots sold, in the value of lots sold and profi t achieved.

Infl ation and construction costs

Higher than expected infl ation rates generally, or specifi c to the broadacre, residential development industry, could be expected to increase operating costs and development costs and potentially reduce the value of Peet's land. These cost increases may be offset by increased selling prices.

Availability of funding and refi nancing risk

Peet's business is capital intensive. Peet's ability to raise funds on favourable terms for future refi nancing, development and acquisitions depends on a number of factors including general economic conditions, political, capital and credit market conditions and the reputation, performance and fi nancial strength of Peet's business. These factors could increase the cost of funding, or reduce the availability of funding, as well as increase Peet's refi nancing risk for maturing debt facilities.

Peet's ability to refi nance its debt facilities as they fall due will depend upon market conditions and Peet's operating performance. If the debt facilities are not refi nanced and need to be repaid, it is possible that Peet will need to realise assets for less than their fair value, which would impact future cash fl ows and profi ts.

Breach of fi nancial covenants

As at the date of this Prospectus, Peet was in compliance with all covenants under its debt facilities. Proceeds from the Offer, together with other capital management initiatives will strengthen Peet's balance sheet.

The fi nancial covenants in Peet's debt facilities relate to Peet's earnings, cash fl ow and asset values, and a material movement in any of these may cause covenants under Peet's debt facilities to be breached. If a breach occurs, this is likely to have negative consequences for Peet, including the possibility of early repayment of drawn debt.

Property assets are by their nature illiquid investments. This may make it diffi cult to sell assets quickly to repay debt.

No increased bank facility

Whilst Peet has received a letter of offer from its banks for increased debt facilities and an extended term, if documentation cannot be agreed then Peet will have to repay $38 million in loans on or before 31 December 2011.

Inability to launch further retail syndicates and institutional joint ventures

Peet's business model depends on the ability to successfully raise money from retail and institutional investors. An inability to launch further syndicates and joint ventures may result in a reduction of earnings from syndicate fees. The inability to sell down inventory from Peet's balance sheet into new syndicates or joint ventures over time may require Peet to obtain funding from other sources which may be expensive or diffi cult to obtain.

Performance of existing syndicates and joint ventures

Peet derives signifi cant fees from its existing syndicates and joint ventures. Poor performance by any or a number of these syndicates and joint ventures may impact negatively on the revenues and profi tability of Peet. Peet may also elect to provide loans to some of its syndicates and joint ventures which will reduce capital available to Peet.

Inventory write downs

Unanticipated factors affecting the value of land or development costs, including environmental issues, native title claims, land resumptions, failure to obtain rezonings and major infrastructure charges might impact future earnings through a write down in property values.

Dependence on key personnel

Peet is reliant on a number of key personnel employed by Peet. Loss of such personnel, or inability to attract suitably qualifi ed personnel, may have a materially adverse impact on the performance of Peet.

5.1 SPECIFIC RISKS CONTINUED

Acquisitions and joint ventures

Peet may make strategic acquisitions of businesses and joint ventures as part of its growth strategies. There can be no assurance that Peet will be able to successfully identify, acquire or integrate such acquisitions or joint ventures. Peet may also elect to fund acquisitions using existing or new bank facilities. The Directors will adopt prudent fi nancial practices in assessing the appropriate funding mix.

Whilst it is Peet's policy to conduct a thorough due diligence process in relation to any such acquisition, risks remain that are inherent in such acquisitions, such as the reliance on advice from consultants which may prove to be incorrect.

Subject to relevant joint venture agreements, Peet may be unable to control the actions of its joint venture partners and therefore cannot guarantee that the joint ventures will be operated or managed in accordance with Peet's preferred direction or strategy.

Environmental and Cultural Heritage matters

The discovery of, or incorrect assessment of costs associated with, environmental matters, cultural heritage or contamination on any of Peet's projects could have an adverse affect on the profi tability and timing of receipt of revenue from that project. Peet's policy is to endeavour to undertake environmental and cultural heritage due diligence on any property before acquisition, subject to time constraints and in the absence of indicative environmental concerns.

Capital expenditure

The risk of unforeseen capital or other expenditure requirements for Peet may impact returns to investors.

Litigation and disputes

Through the ordinary course of business, Peet may be involved in disputes and possible litigation. It is possible a material and costly claim, whether successful or not, could distract management from its core business and impact the value of the assets, income and dividends of Peet.

5.2 RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING IN PEET NOTES

Financial market conditions

The market price of Peet Notes may fl uctuate due to various factors, including worldwide economic conditions, interest rates, credit spreads on other corporate securities, general movements in the Australian and international equity markets, movements in the market price of Ordinary Shares, factors which may affect Peet's fi nancial position and earnings and investor sentiment.

The market price of Peet Notes may be more sensitive than that of Ordinary Shares to changes in interest rates, and Peet Notes could trade on the ASX at a price below the issue price.

Volatility of market price of Ordinary Shares

The market price of the Ordinary Shares may be volatile. The volatility of the market price of the Ordinary Shares may cause volatility in the price of Peet Notes and affect the ability of Holders of Peet Notes to sell the Peet Notes at an acceptable price. Additionally, this may result in greater volatility in the market price of the Peet Notes than would be expected for nonconvertible debt securities.

Liquidity

The market for Peet Notes may be less liquid than the market for Ordinary Shares. There can be no assurance that investors will be able to buy or sell Peet Notes on the ASX at a price acceptable to them, or at all. Peet will seek quotation of the Peet Notes on the ASX to permit on-market trading of the Peet Notes in Australia.

Interest payments

Peet expects to make interest payments using available cash balances, the proceeds from future debt or equity raisings and cashfl ow from operations (if available). Peet's ability to generate cash fl ows from its operations and to raise further debt or equity will depend substantially on the success of Peet's business. If Peet's projects do not perform as expected by Peet, there is a risk that Peet would be unable to generate suffi cient cash fl ows from operations or raise suffi cient cash resources from future debt or equity raisings and would in that case have insuffi cient cash fl ows to service the semi-annual interest payments on the Peet Notes.

The interest payments on the Peet Notes are obligations of Peet and are not guaranteed by the Trustee or any of its directors, employees, offi cers, affi liates, agents, advisers, intermediaries, related body corporate or any other entity.

5.2 RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING IN PEET NOTES CONTINUED

Interest rate risk

Interest on the Peet Notes is fi xed at 9.5% per annum payable semi-annually in arrears. No adjustment will be made to the rate of interest paid to noteholders as other market based interest rates rise or fall.

The market price of the Peet Notes on ASX may fl uctuate due to changes in interest rates generally, credit spreads on other corporate securities or investor sentiment towards Peet.

Redemption risk

Peet expects to be able to redeem the Peet Notes in accordance with the Terms, using the proceeds from future debt or equity raisings, and cash fl ows from operations (if available). Peet's ability to raise further debt or equity will depend substantially on the success of its business. If Peet's projects do not perform as expected by Peet, there is a risk that Peet would be unable to procure or raise suffi cient cash resources from future debt or equity raisings and would, in that case, have insuffi cient cashfl ows to redeem the Peet Notes at the Maturity Date.

Peet must redeem the Peet Notes on the request of a Holder if a Change of Control Event, a Delisting Event or an Event of Default (each as defi ned in the Terms) occurs. Peet cannot assure Holders that, if required, it would have suffi cient cash or other fi nancial resources at the time such a redemption obligation arises or would be able to arrange fi nancing to redeem the Peet Notes in cash.

The obligation to redeem Peet Notes in accordance with their terms is a direct obligation of Peet. Neither the Trustee nor any of its directors, employees, offi cers, affi liates, agents, advisers, intermediaries, related body corporate or any other entity guarantees the redemption of or prepayment of any principal under the Peet Notes.

Early redemption

Peet Notes may be redeemed early by Peet in certain circumstances. The Repayment Amount may be less than the previously prevailing market value of Peet Notes. Additionally, in the event of an early redemption of Peet Notes, you may not receive the returns you expected to achieve on your Peet Notes (if held until maturity) by investing the proceeds in alternative investment opportunities available at that time.

Ranking

If Peet is wound-up, noteholders will rank behind secured creditors of Peet and equally with other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors of Peet (such as other noteholders) and ahead of Shareholders.

If there is a shortfall of funds on winding-up, there is a risk that noteholders will not receive a full (or any) repayment of their money invested in the Peet Notes or payment of interest payable but unpaid.

Conversion

The Ordinary Shares held by noteholders following conversion of their Peet Notes will have the same rights as other Ordinary Shares, which are different from the rights attached to Peet Notes.

The market price of the Ordinary Shares may fl uctuate over time as a result of a number of factors.

Future payment of dividends

Peet's current dividend payout ratio is 60% of net after tax profi ts earned in each fi nancial year. The amount of future dividends actually paid will be determined by the Board of Peet having regard to its operating results, fi nancial position and available franking credits. A change in dividend policy or dividend levels may impact the market value of Peet Notes as a higher dividend payment may reduce the value of remaining equity which may reduce the value of Peet Notes.

Dividends on Ordinary Shares

Payment of any dividends on Ordinary Shares is at the discretion of Directors. Holders whose Peet Notes are converted after the record date for a dividend will have no entitlement to that dividend. Directors may only declare a dividend if there are funds legally available to pay dividends. Peet Notes will not be entitled to participate in any dividends on the Ordinary Shares.

Further issues of securities

Peet may issue further securities with the same or different terms as the Peet Notes. Peet may issue other securities, including further Peet Notes that rank for interest, redemption or payment in a winding-up of Peet equally with or behind the Peet Notes, without the approval of noteholders.

SECTION 5: RISK FACTORS

5.2 RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTING IN PEET NOTES CONTINUED

Dilution

Peet may undertake additional offerings of securities in the future. The increase in the number of issued Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into Ordinary Shares and the possibility of sales of such securities may depress the price of Ordinary Shares already on issue and of the Peet Notes. In addition, as a result of the issue of Ordinary Shares, the voting power and proportionate economic interest of the Company's existing shareholders (and, indirectly, of holders of Peet Notes) will be diluted. The Terms provide for an adjustment to the Conversion Price in relation to only a limited class of future offerings of securities.

Change in the Australian tax system

Prospective investors should be aware that any future changes in Australian tax law, including changes in interpretation or application of the law by the courts or taxation authorities in Australia, may affect the taxation treatment of the acquisition, holding and disposal of Peet Notes.

Enforcement risk

The Terms provide that rights under the Peet Notes and the Note Trust Deed may generally only be enforced by the Trustee and not by the Holders directly. Holders must therefore notify their claims to the Trustee and rely on enforcement by the Trustee, except in certain circumstances where the Trustee has failed to take action after being directed by noteholders to do so. Holders may, by ordinary or special resolution, waive breaches or amend the Note Trust Deed. A large noteholder may infl uence the outcome of any such vote.

5.3 GENERAL RISKS

General risk factors outside the control of Peet which may have a signifi cant impact on the future performance of Peet include the following:

  • economic conditions in Australia and internationally which may have a negative impact on capital markets;
  • change in investor sentiment and perceptions in the local and international stock markets;
  • changes in interest rates, exchange rates and the rate of infl ation;
  • changes in domestic or international fi scal, monetary, regulatory and other government policies, including changes to the taxation of company income and gains and the dividend imputation system in Australia;
  • geo-political conditions such as acts or threats of terrorism, military confl icts or international hostilities; and
  • developments and general conditions in the markets in which Peet operates.

In addition, investors should be aware that there are risks associated with any investment in equity securities. Prospective investors should recognise that the trading price of Peet's shares may fall as well as rise with movements in the equity capital markets in Australia and internationally.

It should be noted that there is no guarantee that the Ordinary Shares will trade at or above the Conversion Price. It should also be noted that the historic share price performance of Peet's shares provides no guidance as to its future share price performance.

As a listed investment, the market value of shares in Peet may be adversely impacted by the volume of shares being bought or sold at any point in time. Where there are relatively fewer buyers, the price at which an investor may be able to sell its shares in Peet may be adversely impacted.

SECTION 6: AUSTRALIAN TAX IMPLICATIONS

This section contains a general description of the Australian tax consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of the Peet Notes. This description applies only to holders who are individuals and who acquire, hold and dispose of the Peet Notes as a capital investment. It does not apply to holders which are companies, trusts or other types of entities and it does not apply to holders who acquire, hold or dispose of the Peet Notes as part of the conduct of a business, or who otherwise hold the Peet Notes on revenue account or as trading stock.

The actual taxation consequences of acquiring, holding and disposing of the Peet Notes will vary depending upon the particular circumstances of each holder. Therefore, prospective holders are encouraged to obtain independent professional advice relating to their own specifi c circumstances and not to rely on the summary below.

This summary assumes that all relevant transactions are carried out in the manner described in this Prospectus and is based upon the law as in effect at the date of this Prospectus. Prospective investors should note that taxation law is subject to change.

6.1 PEET NOTES AS DEBT INTERESTS

Because Peet will have an 'effectively non-contingent obligation' to repay the Principal Amount, plus any accrued but unpaid interest, on the Peet Notes on the Maturity Date, which is the fi fth anniversary of the Issue Date, the Peet Notes will be 'debt interests' issued by Peet, notwithstanding that the holders will have the right to convert their Peet Notes into Ordinary Shares in Peet in accordance with the Terms of Issue. Therefore, interest payable on the Peet Notes will not be frankable distributions for tax purposes.

6.2 AUSTRALIAN RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS

(a) Payments of Interest

Payments of interest in respect of the Peet Notes must be included in the assessable income of Holders who are residents of Australia for Australian income tax purposes, generally in the year of income in which the payments are received.

Holders are not required to quote their tax fi le number to Peet in connection with their acquisition of the Peet Notes, but Peet will be required to withhold and remit to the Australian Taxation Offi ce a portion (currently 46.5%) of any interest payable on the Peet Notes to a holder who has not validly quoted their tax fi le number in connection with their acquisition of the Peet Notes (or provided evidence of an applicable exemption from withholding). Where withholding is required, the holder would be entitled to claim from the Australian Taxation Offi ce a credit for the amount which Peet withheld from that holder and remitted to the Australian Taxation Offi ce.

No additional amounts are payable to a holder if withholding is required because that holder did not validly quote a tax fi le number or provide evidence of an applicable exemption.

(b) Sale or redemption of Peet Notes

The Peet Notes held by Australian resident individuals should be subject to the rules applicable to 'traditional securities'. Therefore, any gain made on the sale or redemption of the Peet Notes (where the amount received on sale or redemption exceeds the cost of subscribing for or purchasing the Peet Notes), would be included in the assessable income of the Australian resident holder, usually in the year of income in which the holder becomes entitled to receive the proceeds of sale or the redemption amount. In those circumstances, the gain would generally not be subject to the capital gains tax provisions and the CGT discount would not apply, even if the Peet Notes were held for more than 12 months.

Similarly, any loss made by an Australian resident individual Holder from the sale or redemption of the Peet Notes (where the amount received on sale or redemption is less than the cost of subscribing for or purchasing the Peet Notes), would be an allowable deduction, usually in the year in which the sale or redemption occurs. Again, the capital gains tax provisions would not apply in relation to the loss incurred in those circumstances.

6.2 AUSTRALIAN RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS CONTINUED

(c) Conversion to Ordinary Shares

A Holder of a Peet Note may request conversion of the Peet Note into Ordinary Shares. A conversion will entail the redemption of the Peet Notes for the redemption amount and an application of that amount in subscribing for a prescribed number of Ordinary Shares in Peet. The conversion is to be ignored for the purposes of both the 'traditional security' rules described above and the CGT rules, such that there will be no taxing point at the time of conversion under those rules. Instead, the Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to the conversion will be treated as having a cost base that is, in broad terms, equal to the cost base of the Peet Notes at the time of conversion.

Any gain or loss on the ultimate disposal of the Ordinary Shares will be subject to the CGT provisions and it will not be necessary, or possible, to treat the pre-conversion period as on revenue account.

A Holder will be taken to have acquired the Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to a conversion at the time of the conversion. This will be relevant in ascertaining whether a holder is entitled to a 'CGT discount' if the holder makes a capital gain on the ultimate disposal of the Ordinary Shares because CGT assets must be held for 12 months or more prior to disposal in order for any capital gain on the disposal to be subject to the CGT discount. Holders should seek their own advice regarding their entitlement to the CGT discount upon an ultimate disposal of any Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to a conversion.

(d) 'Taxation of Financial Arrangements' regime

Although the Peet Notes would be 'fi nancial arrangements' for the purposes of the provisions of Australian tax law for the accruals taxation of fi nancial arrangements, those provisions will generally not apply to individuals, unless the individual specifi cally elects for those provisions to apply.

6.3 NON-AUSTRALIAN RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS

(a) Australian tax treatment of Interest

If a Holder of Peet Notes is not a resident of Australia for Australian tax purposes, interest payable to that Holder would generally not be subject to Australian income or withholding tax, provided that the non-resident Holder does not hold the Peet Notes in connection with the conduct of any business in Australia and also provided that Peet issues the Peet Notes in a manner which satisfi es the 'public offer test' and other requirements for exemption from non-resident interest withholding tax, which it is Peet's intention to do.

If Peet becomes required by law to withhold or deduct an amount of tax from any amount payable to a non-resident Holder, it would be required to pay additional amounts to that Holder to ensure that the Holder receives net amounts equal to the amounts that they would have received if no such withholding or deduction had been required unless the withholding is either (1) due to a failure of the Holder to comply with an information request by Peet and/or (2) required because the Holder is an 'associate' of Peet for the purposes of section 128F of the Tax Act.

If the withholding is due to a change of tax law or administrative action, Peet may have the right to require early redemption of all of the Peet Notes if it is a 'Change in Regulation Event'.

(b) Sale or redemption of Peet Notes

A non-resident Holder of Peet Notes would generally not be subject to Australian tax on a gain (or loss) from the sale or redemption of Peet Notes under the 'traditional security' provisions, provided that any gain made from that sale or redemption was not from sources in Australia. Although the application of the source rules depends heavily on the particular facts and circumstances of each case, and can be uncertain, gains from the sale or redemption of Peet Notes by a non-resident Holder should generally not be taken to be from Australian sources if the non-resident Holder acquired, held and disposed of the Peet Notes outside Australia.

Even if a gain from the sale or redemption of the Peet Notes by a non-resident Holder is treated as being derived from sources in Australia, that gain may be exempt from Australian tax under the provisions of an applicable Double Tax Treaty between Australia and the country of residence of the Holder. Non-resident Holders should seek their own taxation advice in relation to this issue.

Gains (or losses) from the sale or redemption of the Peet Notes by certain non-resident Holders may, however, be subject to the Australian CGT regime, depending upon the size of a non-resident's investment in the Peet Notes along with any existing investments held by that non-resident and/or its associates in Peet Ordinary Shares. This is because the Peet Notes may constitute an option or right to acquire an 'indirect Australian real property interest'. The disposal of such a right or option is a taxable 'CGT event'.

6.3 NON-AUSTRALIAN RESIDENT INDIVIDUALS CONTINUED

(c) Sale or redemption of Peet Notes

An 'indirect Australian real property interest' exists where both of the following tests are passed by a 'membership interest' in an entity (in this case the relevant 'membership interest' is the Ordinary Shares in Peet that could hypothetically be acquired on a conversion by the Holder just prior to the time of the disposal of the Peet Notes by the Holder):

  • (i) the non-portfolio interest test: a membership interest in Peet will pass this test at a particular time if the direct interests held by the Holder and their associates in Peet are 10% or more either at that time or throughout a 12 month period that began no earlier than 24 months before that time and ended no later than that time; and
  • (ii) the principal asset test: broadly, this test will be passed if more than 50% of Peet's assets are attributable to Australian real property (which includes leases of land and mining rights), which is likely to be the case at any given time.

In addition, where a non-resident Holder holds their Peet Notes in connection with carrying on a business though a permanent establishment in Australia, the disposal of the Peet Notes will also be a taxable 'CGT event'.

Non-resident Holders of Peet Notes whose interests in Peet are (1) not of a suffi cient size (along with interests of associates) to pass the non-portfolio test described above and (2) not held in connection with carrying on a business through a permanent establishment in Australia, will not be taxed under the Australian CGT rules on any gains made on the sale or redemption of their Peet Notes.

(d) Conversion to Ordinary Shares

As described above in relation to Australian resident Holders, the conversion of a Peet Note is to be ignored for the purposes of both the 'traditional security' rules and the CGT rules, such that there will be no taxing point at the time of conversion under those rules. Instead, the Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to the conversion will be treated as having a cost base that is, in broad terms, equal to the cost base of the Peet Notes at the time of conversion, with a Holder being taken to have acquired the Ordinary Shares at the time of the conversion.

Any gain or loss by a non-resident Holder on the ultimate disposal of the Ordinary Shares will only be subject to the Australian CGT provisions if the non-resident's shareholding is of a suffi cient size (along with the membership interests of its associates) to qualify as an 'indirect Australian real property interest' (see above) or is held by the non-resident in connection with carrying on a business through a permanent establishment in Australia. Otherwise, the CGT rules should not apply to tax any gain by a non-resident Holder on the ultimate disposal of their Peet Ordinary Shares. Non-resident Holders should seek their own taxation advice as to whether their Ordinary Shares may be subject to the operation of the Australian CGT provisions.

(e) Non-Australian taxes

Holders who are not residents of Australia may be subject to other tax consequences in their own country of residence.

6.4 OTHER TAXES

Holders of Peet Notes will generally not be subject to any Australian Goods and Services Tax or stamp duties in any Australian State or Territory in respect of their acquisition, holding, sale, redemption or conversion of Peet Notes or the receipt of interest payable on Peet Notes. However, any Holder who, as a result of the conversion of the Peet Notes, holds (either alone or with associated persons) an interest of 90% or more (50% or more if Peet is not listed at the time of conversion), in the shares of Peet may be liable to landholder stamp duty.

7.1 RIGHTS ATTACHING TO ORDINARY SHARES

The shares issued on conversion of the Peet Notes will be Ordinary Shares and will rank equally with all existing Ordinary Shares.

The following is a broad summary of rights which attach to Ordinary Shares. It is not intended to be an exhaustive or defi nitive summary of the rights attaching to Ordinary Shares.

Voting rights

Subject to restrictions on voting from time to time affecting any particular Shareholder or any class of shares and subject to any contrary provisions of the Constitution, at a meeting of Shareholders, each Shareholder entitled to vote may vote in person or by proxy or attorney or, being a corporation, by a duly authorised representative, and has 1 vote on a show of hands and 1 vote per Ordinary Share on a poll.

Dividends

The Board may from time to time declare or determine a dividend to be paid to the Issuer's Shareholders. Subject to the right of, or any restrictions on, the holders of shares created or raised under any special arrangement as to dividend, dividends are payable on all shares in the Issuer in proportion to the amount of total issue price for the time being paid or credited as paid in respect of the shares. Dividends may be declared or determined to be payable in respect of a specifi ed period.

Transfer

Subject to the Constitution, the Corporations Act, the Listing Rules and the ASX Settlement Operating Rules, Ordinary Shares are freely transferable. Subject to the Listing Rules and the Corporations Act, the Directors may refuse to register a transfer or apply a holding lock to prevent a transfer of Ordinary Shares only in limited circumstances (for example, where the Issuer has a lien on those shares).

Winding up

If the Issuer is wound up, the liquidator may divide among all or any of the Issuer's Shareholders, in specie or in kind, any part of the Issuer's assets. The division may be carried out as the liquidator thinks fi t, subject to the right of any Shareholder prejudiced by the division to dissent.

Variation of rights

The rights, privileges and restrictions attaching to the Ordinary Shares can only be varied by a special resolution passed at a meeting of Shareholders by those shareholders present at the meeting or by proxy who hold at least 75% of the votes attaching to Ordinary Shares.

7.2 NOTE TRUST DEED

The Note Trust Deed governs the terms and conditions on which the Peet Notes are to be issued and is subject to the Corporations Act and the ASX Listing Rules. Schedule 1 to the Note Trust Deed contains the Terms of Issue of the Peet Notes. Those Terms of Issue are set out in section 8.

The following is a summary of the Note Trust Deed. To obtain a complete understanding of the Note Trust Deed it is necessary to read it in full. A complete copy of the Note Trust Deed is available for inspection without charge during normal offi ce hours at the registered offi ce of the Issuer at Level 7, 200 St Georges Terrace, Perth within 7 days after lodgement of this Prospectus. The Note Trust Deed will also be released to ASX and will be available from its website (www.asx.com.au).

(a) Legal nature of the Peet Notes

The Note Trust Deed provides that the Peet Notes:

  • rank without preference or priority among themselves;
  • are direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer;
  • do not carry a right to vote at any general meeting of the Issuer; and
  • are to be issued to persons as the Issuer thinks fi t.

The Issuer's obligations in relation to the Peet Notes, as constituted by and specifi ed in the Note Trust Deed, are to the Trustee and to those persons who are registered as noteholders. No certifi cates are issued in respect of the Peet Notes unless requested by the Trustee.

7.2 NOTE TRUST DEED CONTINUED

(b) Issuer's Undertakings

Under the Note Trust Deed, the Issuer undertakes to the Trustee and each noteholder that it shall:

  • provide without charge, to the Trustee and to each noteholder who requests it in accordance with section 318(2) of the Corporations Act, a copy of the Issuer's consolidated audited accounts in respect of each fi nancial year and a copy of the Issuer's annual report for that fi nancial year, at the time required by the Corporations Act;
  • whenever requested by the Trustee, promptly give to the Trustee such information as the Trustee reasonably considers necessary for the purposes of the discharge of the duties, trusts and powers vested in the Trustee under the Note Trust Deed or imposed on it by law;
  • promptly give the Trustee copies of all material documents and notices received by it from any noteholder or which it gives to a noteholder;
  • use its best endeavours to ensure that the Peet Notes are, upon their issue, quoted on the ASX and that such quotation is maintained;
  • comply in all material respects with all laws binding on it with respect to the Peet Notes.

(c) Trustee's Covenants

Under the Note Trust Deed the Trustee makes certain covenants including that it will act continuously as trustee of the note trust until the note trust is terminated or the Trustee has retired or been removed from offi ce in the manner provided under the Note Trust Deed.

(d) Powers of the Trustee

In addition to those powers arising under law, the Trustee has certain powers and discretions as set out in the Note Trust Deed, including the power:

  • to waive any breach by the Issuer of its covenants or obligations under the Note Trust Deed, including any Event of Default, on the instructions of noteholders by special resolution;
  • to waive minor breaches of a formal, technical or administrative nature;
  • to delegate its functions; and
  • to amend the Note Trust Deed in certain circumstances by agreement with the Issuer (and beyond this modifying the Note Trust deed requires a resolution of noteholders).

The Trustee may hold Peet Notes and may enter into transactions with the Issuer or any related body corporate of the Issuer.

(e) Amendment to Terms

Amendments to the Terms may be made without Holder's consent in a number of circumstances, including where the amendment is, in the opinion of the Issuer:

  • (i) formal or technical or corrects a manifest error; or
  • (ii) is necessary or expedient to enable the offer or quotation or is necessary to comply with applicable laws and / or listing requirements, provided the Issuer has provided to the Trustee an opinion addressed to the Trustee or otherwise able to be relied on by the Trustee from legal advisers of recognised standing in Western Australia that such amendment is otherwise not materially prejudicial to the interest of Holders as a whole.

Otherwise, Holder consent is required to amend the Terms.

(f) Limited liability and indemnity of Trustee

The liability of the Trustee is limited in the manner set out in the Note Trust Deed. The Trustee is not responsible for any information published by the Issuer in relation to the Peet Notes (including this Prospectus). The Trustee is indemnifi ed in the manner set out in the Note Trust Deed.

The limitations on the Trustee's liability and the Trustee's indemnities as set out in the Note Trust Deed apply to this Prospectus as if set out in full.

7.3 AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE ACQUISITION

Peet has agreed to subscribe for a 50% interest in Peet Flagstone City Pty Limited (the Owner), which has entered into an agreement to purchase a 1,244 hectare englobo land parcel referred to as "Flagstone West Project", located 38km south west of Brisbane. A subsidiary of MTAA Super, MTAA Superannuation Fund (Flagstone Creek and Spring Mountain Park) Property Pty Limited as trustee for the MTAA Superannuation Fund (Flagstone Creek and Spring Mountain Park) Property Trust (MTAA Flagstone), will own the other 50% interest in the Owner. The Owner intends to develop the land into a residential master planned community.

A subsidiary of Peet has been appointed as the Development Manager by the Owner. The key transaction documents are described below.

(a) Acquisition Agreement

On 1 June 2011 the Owner entered into an agreement with MTAA Flagstone to purchase the Flagstone West project. The key terms of this agreement are:

  • purchase price of $90 million (excl. GST);
  • settlement date of 28 July 2011; and
  • buyer's obligation subject to completion of the Subscription Deed.

(b) Subscription Agreement

On 1 June 2011, a subsidiary of Peet, Peet No 130 Pty Limited (Peet No 130), and MTAA Flagstone entered into a subscription agreement to subscribe for shares in the capital of the Owner. The agreement provides that:

  • Peet must pay a deposit of $2.25 million (Deposit) on execution of the subscription agreement in relation to their shareholding in the Owner;
  • the Owner must issue and allot to each of Peet No 130 and MTAA Flagstone 45,000,000 unpaid ordinary shares in the capital of the Owner (the Subscription Shares) at an issue price of $1.00 per share;
  • the parties must duly execute the Shareholders' Agreement;
  • the Board of the Owner must be constituted in accordance with the Shareholders' Agreement;
  • the Owner must adopt a constitution consistent with the provisions of the Shareholders' Agreement; and
  • upon completion, Peet No 130 must pay the Subscription Amount ($45,000,000 excl. GST) less the Deposit ($2,250,000) to the Owner.

Under the agreement, the parties acknowledge that the Owner must apply the funds raised from the Subscription Shares issued to Peet No 130 for the benefi t of MTAA Flagstone as part consideration for the $90 million purchase price payable by the Owner under the Acquisition Agreement. In addition, the balance of the purchase price ($45 million excl. GST), payable by the Owner to MTAA Flagstone, will be used to satisfy the amounts unpaid on MTAA Flagstone's Shares.

If Peet No 130 breaches a provision of the agreement in a material respect and fails to remedy that breach within 7 Business Days after receipt of a Breach Notice by the Owner, the Owner may terminate the agreement and retain the Deposit (except that if the Owner is also in breach of a provision of the agreement in a material respect, then on termination the Deposit must be returned to Peet No 130).

(c) Shareholders' Agreement

On 1 June 2011, an agreement was entered into by the shareholders of the Owner. Under the agreement the parties have agreed to manage and control the Owner on the terms set out in the agreement. Under the agreement, the parties have agreed protocols relating to:

  • (iv) on the day an agreement to sell all of the shares is completed.

7.3 AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE ACQUISITION CONTINUED

(d) Development, Marketing and Management Agreement

On 1 June 2011, the Owner and Peet Development Management Pty Limited (the Development Manager) entered into a development, marketing and management agreement in respect to the Flagstone West Project.

These fees are exclusive of GST, and will become payable by the Issuer on settlement of the Offer.

The Issuer has also agreed to reimburse the Underwriters for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Underwriters in connection with the Offer.

7.4 UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT CONTINUED

(b) Warranties, Undertakings and other Terms

The Underwriting Agreement contains certain common representations, warranties and undertakings provided by the Issuer to the Underwriters. The warranties relate to matters such as the conduct of the parties, the Issuer's compliance with applicable ASX Listing Rules or laws, information provided to the Underwriters, licences and the Offer Documents. The Issuer's undertakings include, that other than as disclosed to the ASX:

  • the business of the Peet Group has been carried on in the ordinary and usual course; and
  • there has been no material adverse change in the condition (fi nancial or otherwise), or the assets, earnings, business, results of operations, management or prospects of the Peet Group, from 30 June 2010 up until the date of lodgement of this Prospectus.

(c) Indemnity

Subject to certain exclusions relating to, among other things, fraud, wilful conduct or negligence by an indemnifi ed party, the Issuer agrees to keep the Underwriters and certain affi liated parties indemnifi ed from losses suffered in connection with the Offer.

(d) Termination events

Each Underwriter may, by notice to the Issuer and the other Underwriters, without any cost or liability to the Underwriter, terminate its obligations under the Underwriting Agreement if any of the following events occur before 3.00pm on the Settlement Date:

The Peet Notes are direct, unsecured debt obligations of the Issuer which, subject to generally applicable legal and equitable principles rank equally with each other and all other present and future unsubordinated and unsecured obligations of the Issuer.

3.2 No Security Interest

Nothing in these Terms creates a Security Interest over any asset of a Holder.

4. INTEREST

4.1 Interest

(a) Each Peet Note accrues interest from and including its Issue Date on a daily basis at the Interest Rate. Interest accrued for each Interest Period will be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

(ii) bear interest at the Interest Rate plus a margin of 2% calculated daily (Default Interest).

  • (b) Default Interest is due and payable on the fi rst Interest Payment Date after it begins accruing. The Issuer may pay Default Interest at any time before that date.

(iii) any combination of the foregoing.

(d) The Issuer shall pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant revenue authority within the time allowed for such payment without incurring penalty under the applicable law and shall, if required by any Holder, deliver to that Holder a copy of the relevant receipt issued by the revenue authority without unreasonable delay after it is received by the Issuer.

4.6 No set off

A Holder has no right to set off any amounts owing by it to the Issuer against claims owing by the Issuer to the Holder.

4.7 Method of payment

Any amount which is payable to Holders in respect of Peet Notes will, unless the Issuer and Holders otherwise agree, be paid by direct credit into a nominated account at a fi nancial institution offering such a facility for direct credit of amounts denominated in Australian currency. If a Holder fails to nominate such an account, the amount may be deposited by the Issuer in a bank account in the Issuer's name established for the purpose and held by the Issuer until the Holder nominates an account.

6.3 Effect of Realisation Notice

A Realisation Notice given under clause 6.2 is irrevocable and the Issuer must, on the date specifi ed in that notice, Repay all Peet Notes the subject of that notice, unless a valid Exit Notice under clause 5.1 requesting Conversion is given by a Holder in respect of the same Peet Notes after it has received the Realisation Notice.

Where the Ordinary Shares are reconstructed, consolidated, divided or reclassifi ed into a lesser or greater number of securities, the Reference Price shall be adjusted by the Issuer as it reasonably considers appropriate (consistently with the way in which the number of Ordinary Shares the subject of an option over Ordinary Shares would have been adjusted under the ASX Listing Rules) and having fi rst obtained a letter from an organisation independent to the Issuer with expertise in Australian fi nancial market products which states that it considers the adjustment appropriate (consistently with the way in which the number of Ordinary Shares the subject of an option over Ordinary Shares would have been adjusted under the ASX Listing Rules).
