- $1.2$ This agreement sets out the terms and conditions whereby the Seller agrees to sell the Sale Seourities and appoints Citigroup Global Markets Australia Pty Limited (the "Underwriter") and the Underwriter accepts the appointment and agrees to:
- act as its broker and agent to offer for sale the Sale Securities on 14 May 2015, $(a)$ which shall be the T date, T date being the date on which the trade is executed ("Trade Date");
- (b) manage the sale of the Sale Securities by procuring potential investors at the final per Security price for the Sale Securities ("Sale Price") determined under clause 1(d) below;
L\315620450.1
- (c) underwrite and guarantee the sale of the Sale Securities at a minimum price of A\$5.43 per Sale Security ("Underwritten Price");
- The Underwriter will determine the Sale Price for the Sale Securities via a $(d)$ bookbuild process ("Bookbuild"). The Sale Price cannot be less than the Underwritten Price;
- (e) if by 9.00am on the Trade Date, the Underwriter has not received binding bids for all of the Sale Securities for a price at or above the Underwritten Price subject to clause 1.8, the Underwriter will immediately either itself purchase or procure other investors to purchase at the Underwritten Price those Sale Securities in respect of which the Underwriter has not received binding bids from third party purchasers (the "Residual Securities"); and
- pay, or procure the payment of, the Underwritten Price per Sale Security to the $(f)$ Seller and transfer, or procure the transfer of, the Sale Securities to the purchasers of those securities, in accordance with this agreement or take delivery of any Residual Securities.
- The Seller undertakes to provide the Underwriter with a current copy of the relevant $1.3$ issuer sponsored holding statement as soon as practicable.
- $1.4$ the Underwriter will determine the final allocation of Sale Securities to purchasers.

- $1.5$ On or before the day of execution of this agreement, the Seller will open an account with the Underwriter in accordance with the Underwriter's usual practice and standard terms of business.
- The Underwriter must purchase or procure the purchase of the Sale Securities $1.6$ (excluding any Relevant Securities which the Underwriter will purchase or procure the purchase of in accordance with clause 1.10) on the Trade Date by way of one or more special crossings in accordance with the ASX Settlement Operating Rules and ASX Operating Rules. Settlement of the Sale Securities (excluding any Relevant Securities which will be settled in accordance with clause 1.11) will be on a T+3 basis ("Settlement Date") in accordance with the ASX Settlement Operating Rules and ASX Operating Rules.

(in cleared funds) against delivery of the Sale Securities (excluding any Relevant Seourlities as defined in clause 1.8). For the avoidance of doubt, payment for any Relevant Seourities to the Seller shall also be made notwithstanding that no delivery has been made due to a Regulatory Event.
- Notwithstanding anything else in this agreement, the Underwriter will not purchase 1.8 Sale Securities ("Relevant Securities") which are not purchased by third parties purchasers that would result in either:
- the Underwriter or any of its Affiliates being obliged to notify the Treasurer of $(a)$ Australia under section 26 of the Foreign Acquisitions and Takeovers Act 1975 $(Cth)$ ('FATA"); or
- $(b)$ breach by the Underwriter or any of its Affiliates (including associates) of section 606 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) ("Corporations Act")
(each of (a) and (b) being a "Regulatory Event"), taking into account the number of Securities then held by the Underwriter and/or its Affiliates in the Company.
- 1.9 The Underwriter warrants that the information it provides to the Seller to enable the Underwriter to calculate the number of Securities held by it and its Affiliates in accordance with clause 1.8 will, at the time it is given, be accurate.
- 1.10 $(a)$ To the extent that a Regulatory Event arises then:
- $(i)$ the Underwriter must still comply with its obligations to pay or procure payment to the Seller pursuant to clause 1.7 provided that the portion of those payments that is equal to the number of any Relevant Securities multiplied by the greater of the Underwritten Price and the Sale Price is provided to the Seller as an interest free loan ("Advance Amount");
- the Seller is not required to repay the Advance Amount other than from, $(ii)$ and to the extent the Seller receives monies directly for the sale of the Relevant Securities, provided always that the Soller shall not be responsible for any shortfall in repayment from the proceeds of the sale of Relevant Securities and the Underwriter shall bear the loss arising from the shortfall in the sale proceeds of the Relevant Securities, if any;
- the Underwriter must continue its efforts to procure subscribers for such $(iii)$ Relevant Securities as agent for the Seller in the ordinary course of its business: and
-
$(iv)$ the Seller acknowledges that the Underwriter does not acquire any interest or relevant interest in, or rights in respect of, any Relevant Securities except to act as agent for the Seller in procuring sales for the Relevant Securities.
-
$(b)$ Subject to clause 1.4, the Seller must, as soon as practicable, acting reasonably, transfer the Relevant Securities upon notification from the Underwriter that it has procured acquirers for such Relevant Securities, or is itself able to acquire for such Relevant Securities without resulting in a Regulatory Event, at any time the Underwriter reasonably requests, except that no acquisitions may be made by any person to the extent identified by the Seller if the Seller reasonably believes that such transfer may lead to a breach of FATA or other applicable law.
- $\left( \circ \right)$ the Underwriter is entitled to apply, by way of set off, the proceeds for the purchase of any Relevant Securities against the Advance Amount, immediately upon the Underwriter's receipt of those proceeds. For the avoidance of doubt the Underwriter shall not have recourse to the Seller for any shortfall in repayment from the sale proceeds of the Relevant Securities.
- Settlement of the Relevant Securities will be on a T+3 basis in accordance with the 1.11 ASX Settlement Operating Rules and ASX Operating Rules where T means the trade date on which the Relevant Security is sold and not the Trade Date.
