	2	 	The facility






	 
	 	2.1	 	Amount
	 
	 	 	 	Subject to the terms of this document, the Lender agrees to make available to the
Borrower during the Availability Period, a cash advance facility to draw Advances up to
a total amount not exceeding the Commitment.
	 
	 	2.2	 	Purpose
	 
	 	 	 	The Borrower must use an Advance only for an Approved Purpose.

	 
	 	2.3	 	Availability

	 
	 	 	 	The Undrawn Commitment is cancelled at 5.00 pm on the last day of the Availability
Period.
	 
	 	2.4	 	Quarterly and ad-hoc drawdowns
	 
	 	 	 	Subject to the terms of this document and the satisfaction or waiver of all applicable
conditions precedent, the parties currently intend that:






	 	(a)	 	in relation to the First Period, one Advance (if and as necessary) be
made after the date the AFFA Amending Deed has come into force in accordance with
clause 2.2 of that deed in the amount of the Shortfall Amount (if any) for the
First Period; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	in relation to each of the 9 Periods following the First Period, up
to four Advances (if and as necessary) be made with the first such Advance to be
made on or about the Review Date that is the first day of that Period and each
subsequent Advance to be made on or about the date that is 3 months after that
Review Date, each Advance to be in the amount of 25% (or such other percentage
agreed by the parties) of the Shortfall Amount (if any) for that Period; and
	 
	 	(c)	 	additional Advances may be made during the Availability Period on an
ad hoc basis as and when necessary in an amount based on the actual shortfall (if
any) of the cash amount available to the Obligors on a consolidated basis for the
relevant Period (being a Period during the Availability Period and, for the
avoidance of doubt, after taking into account any Advance made in respect of that
Period) in order to meet the Approved Purpose in that Period.






	 	2.5	 	Discretionary uplift
	 
	 	 	 	The Lender may, in consultation with the Borrower, increase the amount of any Advance
above the amount contemplated by clause 2.4 by an amount (Uplift Amount) acceptable to
the Lender in order to reduce the likelihood of the need to make ad hoc Advances as
contemplated by clause 2.4(c). The Lender is not obliged to do so.






	3	 	Conditions precedent






	 
	 	3.1	 	AFFA Amending Deed Condition
	 
	 	 	 	The Lender must not make the Facility available or provide any Advance unless the AFFA
Amending Deed has come into force in accordance with clause 2.2 of that deed.

Financial Year ended prior to the proposed Drawdown Date for that Advance for
which such Accounts have been prepared;
	 
	 	(d)	 	operating budget: the Lender has received a copy of the consolidated

account in determining the Discounted Central Estimate) does not take into
account any insurance policy that is not an Insurance Policy; or
	 
	 	(ii)	 	if that net present value was calculated taking into
account any insurance policies other than the Insurance Policies, the
Borrower delivers to the Lender a certification from the Approved Actuary of
the net present value of forecast recoveries from the Insurance Policies

and

	 	(ii)	 	must not exceed the sum of:






	 	(A)	 	the relevant Shortfall Amount or, in the case of an Advance
contemplated by clause 2.4(b), 25% (or such other percentage agreed
by the parties, where the aggregate percentage for all such Advances
in any Period must not exceed 100%) of the relevant Shortfall Amount;
and
	 
	 	(B)	 	the Uplift Amount (if any);






	 	(d)	 	Drawdown Date: must specify the Drawdown Date, which must be a
Business Day during the Availability Period;
	 
	 	(e)	 	Warranty: must contain those warranties as set out in the form of
Drawdown Notice in Schedule 3;
	 
	 	(f)	 	receipt: must be received by the Lender no later than 11.00 am on the
Business Day that is 15 Business Days before the proposed Drawdown Date or a later
time agreed in writing by the Lender; and
	 
	 	(g)	 	irrevocable: once given is irrevocable.






	 	3.5	 	Form for calculation of Shortfall Amount
	 
	 	 	 	The Borrower may at any time submit to the Lender for the Lender’s approval a form for
the schedule of calculations referred to in clause 3.3(f) for the calculation of the
Shortfall Amount for any Period. A form so agreed by the Lender shall be the form
which the Borrower shall use for the purposes of clause 3.3(f) until another form (if
any) is agreed by the Borrower and the Lender.






	4	 	Interest






	 	 	 	4.1     Interest






	 	(a)	 	Subject to clause 4.1(d), the Borrower must pay to the Lender
interest on each Advance:






	 	(i)	 	at the rate determined under clause 4.1(b) for each
Interest Period for that Advance; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for that
Advance.






	 	(b)	 	The rate of interest for each Interest Period in respect of an
Advance is the rate of interest per annum determined by the Lender to be the Base
Rate for that Advance and Interest Period.
	 
	 	(c)	 	Interest:






	 	(i)	 	accrues on a daily basis, including the first day but
excluding the last day of the relevant Interest Period; and








			
	Gilbert + Tobin
	 	page | 5






 









 







	 	(ii)	 	is calculated on the basis of a 365 day year.






	 	(d)	 	For the avoidance of doubt the Borrower may elect to defer the timing
of any payment under clause 4.1(a)(ii) at any time and from time to time either in
whole or in part by electing to capitalise the relevant amount of interest on its
due date under clause 4.3.






	 	4.2	 	Interest Periods






	 	(a)	 	The first Interest Period for an Advance commences on its Drawdown
Date and ends one month later;
	 
	 	(b)	 	each subsequent Interest Period for an Advance starts on the last day
of the preceding Interest Period for that Advance and ends one month later;
	 
	 	(c)	 	an Interest Period which would otherwise end on a day which is not a
Business Day instead ends on the following Business Day or on the immediately
preceding Business Day if the Business Day is in another calendar month;
	 
	 	(d)	 	an Interest Period commencing on a date in a month where there is no
corresponding date in the following month in which it would otherwise end, ends on
the last Business Day of the later month; and
	 
	 	(e)	 	an Interest Period which would otherwise end after the Final
Repayment Date instead ends on the Final Repayment Date.






	 	4.3	 	Capitalisation
	 
	 	 	 	Interest that is not paid when due on any Interest Payment Date as a result of the
Borrower electing to capitalise interest under clause 4.1(d) is to be capitalised on
the relevant Interest Payment Date and so is added to the principal amount of the
relevant Advance on and from that date. If interest is not paid by the Borrower on any
Interest Payment Date the Borrower shall be taken to have elected to capitalise all
interest due on that Interest Payment Date without the need for any notice to be
delivered by the Borrower to the Lender.






	5	 	Repayment, prepayment and cancellation






	 	 	 	5.1     Repayment and prepayment






	 	(a)	 	Subject to clause 5.1(c), the Obligors must, in each Period in which
there is an Amount Outstanding, immediately upon receipt (or by direction to the
payee in lieu of receipt) apply 100% of Available Proceeds in that Period (or, if
less, the amount required at that time to repay the Amount Outstanding in full) in
repayment of the Amount Outstanding, the intention of the parties being that the
Amount Outstanding should be repaid in full as soon as possible.
	 
	 	(b)	 	On demand the Borrower must pay to each Liable Entity all amounts
paid by the Liable Entity under clause 5.1(a) and indemnifies the Liable Entity
against any loss, cost, liability or expense sustained or incurred as a direct or
indirect consequence of any payment by the Liable Entity to the Lender under
clause 5.1(a).
	 
	 	(c)	 	The Lender may, in its discretion, waive or postpone (in such manner
and for such period as the Lender determines) the requirements of clause 5.1(a) at
any time and from time to time either in whole or in part in order to ensure that
the Obligors have sufficient funds available to them from time to time for them to
be able to meet their operating expenses and liabilities that fall within the
Approved Purpose. The Lender is not obliged to do so.







			
	Gilbert + Tobin
	 	page | 6






 









 







	 	(d)	 	The Borrower may prepay all or part of the Amount Outstanding at any time and
from time to time without penalty.
	 
	 	(e)	 	Subject to the terms of this document (including clauses 3.3 and
3.4), the Borrower may, during the Availability Period borrow or reborrow, as a
new Advance, an amount of an Advance (including capitalised interest) which it has
repaid or prepaid under this document, if it is necessary in order to ensure that
the Obligors have sufficient funds available to them for them to be able to meet
their operating expenses and liabilities that fall within the Approved Purpose.
	 
	 	(f)	 	The Commitment shall not be reduced solely as a result of a full or
partial repayment or prepayment of an Advance.
	 
	 	(g)	 	Without limiting its other payment obligations under the Transaction
Documents, the Borrower must fully and finally repay to the Lender the Amount
Outstanding on or before the Final Repayment Date.






	 	5.2	 	Commitment






	 	(a)	 	On each Review Date the Commitment shall be determined in accordance
with this clause 5.2.
	 
	 	(b)	 	On each Review Date:






	 	(i)	 	if the Valuation at the Review Date is greater than the
Commitment at that date, the Commitment shall become the lesser of:






	 	(A)	 	the Initial Commitment;
	 
	 	(B)	 	the Commitment as reduced by the Borrower under clause
5.2(c); and
	 
	 	(C)	 	the amount of the Valuation at the Review Date less any
capitalised interest outstanding under this document at that date;






	 	(ii)	 	if the Valuation at the Review Date is the same as the
Commitment at that date, the Commitment shall not change; and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	if the Valuation at the Review Date is less than the
Commitment at that date, the Commitment shall become the amount of the
Valuation at the Review Date.






	 	(c)	 	On giving to the Lender at least 5 Business Days’ notice, the
Borrower may cancel all or part of the Undrawn Commitment at any time when:






	 	(i)	 	there are no debts or monetary obligations actually or
contingently owing under a Transaction Document at that time; and
	 
	 	(ii)	 	the board of directors of the Borrower is of the view
that it appears reasonably likely that there will be sufficient funds
available to it for all then present and future Payable Liabilities of the
Liable Entities during the Availability Period to be paid in full as and
when they fall due for payment, taking into account that cancellation in the
Undrawn Commitment.






	 	 	 	That notice and that cancellation in the Undrawn Commitment shall be irrevocable.
	 
	 	 	 	If the whole of the Commitment is cancelled in accordance with this clause
5.2(c), this document shall immediately terminate subject to its terms and the
Lender undertakes, subject to the terms of the Security, to discharge the

extent of AICF’s right of indemnity out of the assets of the Charitable Fund.

AICF of any of its obligations under this document; and
	 
	 	(b)	 	which cannot be paid or satisfied out of the assets of the Charitable
Fund.





15.4 Qualifications to limit





	 	The limitations in clauses 15.1 to 15.3 do not apply to the extent that AICF’s right to

so reduced, AICF will be liable both:






	 	(a)	 	in its capacity as trustee of the Charitable Fund; and

trust by AICF.

yield rate for any relevant Bonds is not so displayed or the basis on
which that rate is so displayed is changed and in the opinion of the
