Curragh Mine - New Coal Supply Deed, ACSA and Binding Terms Sheet

 

We refer to the Curragh Mine - New Coal Supply Deed between Coronado Curragh Pty Ltd ACN 009 362 565 (Coronado) and Stanwell Corporation Limited ACN 078 848 674 (Stanwell) dated 14 August 2018 (New Coal Supply Deed).

 

Capitalised terms that are used but not defined in this letter have the meaning specified in the New Coal Supply Deed.

 

It is proposed that, following the Permitted Reorganisation, Coronado Global Resources Inc. (Coronado Global) be listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and that CHESS Depository Interests over the shares of the common stock in Coronado Global be quoted on the Australian Securities Exchange (Listing).

 

To permit the Listing and subsequently relieve Coronado Group LLC from its obligations under the guarantee and indemnity between Stanwell and Coronado Group LLC dated 13 March  2018  as amended by the Coronado Group Amendment of Guarantee (Group Guarantee), Coronado and Coronado Group LLC covenant and agree, and seek Stanwell’s covenant and agreement that:

 

1.                                      the Group Guarantee will terminate, and Coronado Group LLC will cease to have any liability to Stanwell under the Group Guarantee, on the later of the date on which the Permitted Reorganisation has completed and the date on which the Listing has occurred, provided that on the later of those dates:

 

(a)                           Coronado is not in breach of the New Coal Supply Deed, the Binding Terms Sheet or the ACSA as amended by the New Coal Supply Deed;

 

(b)                           Coronado Group LLC is not in breach of the Group Guarantee; and

 

(c)                            the Coronado Global Guarantee is in full force and effect and Coronado Global is not in breach the Coronado Global Guarantee; and

 

2.                                      with effect from the date of this letter:

 

(a)                           the New Coal Supply Deed is amended by deleting clause 10.4 and replacing it as follows:

 

‘A Change of Control of Coronado will be deemed to be an assignment  of this deed for the purpose of this clause 10 and the person that acquires Control will be deemed to be the ‘‘proposed assignee·: provided that this clause 10.4 will not apply if the Change of  Control of Coronado occurs as a result of the purchase of shares or other securities in Coronado Holdings which are of a class that are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange or another recognised stock exchange.’

(b)                           the ACSA as amended by the New Coal Supply Deed is amended by deleting the definition of ‘Change of Control’ in clause 1.1 and replacing it as follows:

 

“‘Change of Control” means, in relation to Wesfarmers, a change in the persons (including a fund, a trust or a corporation as defined in the Corporations Act) who are individually or together able to Control Wesfarmers.’

 

(c)                            the ACSA as amended by the New Coal Supply Deed is amended by deleting clause 19.5 and replacing it as follows:

 

‘A Change of Control of Wesfarmers will be deemed to be an assignment of this deed for the purpose of this Clause 19 and the person that acquires Control will be deemed to be the “proposed assignee”, provided that this Clause 19.5 will not apply if the Change of Control of Wesfarmers occurs as a result of the purchase of shares or other securities in Coronado Holdings which are of a class that are listed on the Australian Securities Exchange or another recognised stock exchange.’

 

(d)                           the definition of the ACSA in the Binding Terms Sheet is amended by deleting paragraph (b) on the first page of the Binding Terms Sheet and replacing it as follows:

 

‘each New CSA Clause will, unless  otherwise  indicated,  be the provision  or provisions of the Amended Coal Supply Agreement dated 6 November 2009 between Stanwell and Coronado, as amended by the ACSA Deed of Amendment entered into on or about 21 November 2016, the Deed and the letter amending the ACSA executed as a deed between Stanwell, Coronado and Coronado Group LLC dated 20 September 2018  (ACSA) identified in this terms sheet with such amendments as are described below; and

Dear Richard

 

Curragh Mine — New Coal Supply Deed

 

We refer to the Curragh Mine — New Coal Supply Deed between Coronado Curragh Pty Ltd ACN 009 362 565 (Coronado) and Stanwell Corporation Limited ACN 078 848 674 (Stanwell) dated 14 August 2018 as amended (New Coal Supply Deed).

 

Capitalised terms that are used but not defined in this letter have the meaning specified in the New Coal Supply Deed. Clause and schedule references in this letter are to clauses and schedules in the New Coal Supply Deed.

 

The definition of Acceptable Security in clause 1.1 includes the Wilmington Amendment of Undertaking, in the form set out in Schedule 7.  As you are aware, Coronado refinanced its external debt in October 2018. Pursuant to that refinancing, Westpac Administration Pty Ltd replaced Wilmington Trust as security trustee and encumbrancee in respect of security granted by Coronado to the refinancing banks (Banks). In conjunction with the refinancing, Westpac Administration Pty Ltd, Stanwell, Coronado and others entered into the Existing Arrangements Intercreditor Deed on 25 October 2018 (Intercreditor Deed).  Under clause 20 of the Intercreditor Deed, Westpac Administration Pty Ltd in its capacity as security trustee gave undertakings to Stanwell which reflect those contemplated in the Wilmington Amendment of Undertaking.  In view of Wilmington Trust’s replacement by Westpac Administration Pty Ltd as encumbrancee and security trustee in respect of security granted by Coronado to the Banks, and the undertakings given by Westpac Administration Pty Ltd in the Intercreditor Deed, we consider that the reference to the Wilmington Amendment of Undertaking in the definition of Acceptable Security in clause 1.1 is now redundant, and should not be required to be provided as part of the Acceptable Security under the New Coal Supply Deed.

 

In addition, we understand that certain aspects of the Acceptable Security relating to Coronado’s USA operations have not been completed.  Despite this, Coronado wishes to commence mining on the Reserved Area, and seeks Stanwell’s consent in that regard.

 

If Stanwell agrees that:

 

(a)                                 the Wilmington Amendment of Undertaking is not required as part of the Acceptable Security provided under the New Coal Supply Deed;

 

(b)                                 Coronado may commence mining the Reserved Area; and

 

(c)                                  the provisions of clause 4.2(b) will not apply to such mining,

 

please execute this letter as a deed in the space provided below and deliver a fully signed counterpart of this letter to the undersigned on behalf of Coronado.
