in accordance with the terms and
conditions attached thereto. The Manager and Macquarie Bank Limited, ABN 46 008

"Commission") in accordance with the provisions of the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder
(collectively, the "Securities Act"), a registration statement, including a
prospectus, relating to the US$ Notes. The registration statement as amended at
the time when it became effective, or, if a post-effective amendment is filed
with respect thereto, as amended by such post-effective amendment at the time of
its effectiveness (including in each case information (if any) deemed to be part
of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430
or Rule 430A under the Securities Act) is referred to in this Agreement as the

7. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) Each of Macquarie and the Manager, jointly and severally,
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each
affiliate of an Underwriter that assists such Underwriter in
the distribution of the US$ Notes, and each person, if any,
that controls any Underwriter within the meaning of either
Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange
Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and
liabilities (including, without limitation, the legal fees and
other expenses incurred in connection with any suit, action or
proceeding or any claim asserted) caused by any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus (as
amended or supplemented if the Manager shall have furnished
any amendments or supplements thereto) (other than to the
extent any losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise as a
result of any information under the heading "Prepayment and
Yield Considerations"), or caused by any omission or alleged
omission to state therein a material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except (i) insofar as such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities are caused by any untrue statement or omission
or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance upon
and in conformity with information relating to any Underwriter
furnished to a Macquarie Party in writing by such
17
Underwriter directly or through the Representative expressly
for use therein or (ii) that such indemnity with respect to
the Prospectus shall not inure to the benefit of any
Underwriter (or any person controlling any Underwriter) from
whom the person asserting any such loss, claim, damage or
liability purchased the US$ Notes which are the subject
thereof if such person did not receive a copy of the
Prospectus (as amended or supplemented) at or prior to the
confirmation of the sale of such US$ Notes to such person in
any case where such delivery is required by the Securities Act
and the untrue statement or omission of a material fact
contained in such Prospectus was corrected in the Prospectus
(as amended or supplemented);
(b) To the extent that any payment of damages by a Macquarie Party
pursuant to subsection 7(a) above is determined to be a
payment of damages pursuant to Prudential Standard APS 120
"Funds Management and Securitisation", paragraph 15 of
Guidance Note AGN 120.3, "Purchase and Supply of Assets
(including Securities issued by SPVs)", being Guidance Note to
Prudential Standard APS 120 "Funds Management and
Securitisation" or any successor thereto, such payment shall
be subject to the terms therein (or the terms of any
equivalent provision in any replacement of Prudential Standard
APS 120 "Funds Management and Securitisation").
(c) Each Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to
indemnify and hold harmless the Manager, its directors, its
officers who sign the Registration Statement, the Issuer
Trustee and Macquarie and each person that controls any of the
Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee within the meaning of
Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the
Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity
from the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee to each
Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating
to such Underwriter furnished to a Macquarie Party in writing
by such Underwriter directly or through the Representative
expressly for use in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto.
(d) If any suit, action, proceeding (including any governmental or
regulatory investigation), claim or demand shall be brought or
asserted against any person in respect of which indemnity may
be sought pursuant to subsections (a) or (c) above, such
person (the "Indemnified Person") shall promptly notify the
person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the
"Indemnifying Person")in writing, and the Indemnifying Person,
upon request of the Indemnified Person, shall retain counsel
reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person to represent
the Indemnified Person and any others the Indemnifying Person
may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and
expenses of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any
such proceeding, any Indemnified Person shall have the right
to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such
counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person
unless (i) the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person
shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the
Indemnifying Person has failed within a reasonable time to
retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified
Person or (iii) the named parties in any such proceeding
(including any impleaded parties) include both the
Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person and
representation of both
18
parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to
actual or potential differing interests between them. It is
understood that the Indemnifying Person shall not, in
connection with any proceeding or related proceeding in the
same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more
than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for
all Indemnified Persons, and that all such fees and expenses
shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Any such separate
firm for the Underwriters, each affiliate of any Underwriter
which assists such Underwriter in the distribution of the US$
Notes, and such control persons of Underwriters shall be
designated in writing by the Representative and any such
separate firm for the Manager, its directors, its officers who
sign the Registration Statement, the Issuer Trustee and
Macquarie and such control persons of any of the Macquarie
Parties or the Issuer Trustee shall be designated in writing
by the Manager. The Indemnifying Person shall not be liable
for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its
written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there
be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the Indemnifying Person
agrees to indemnify any Indemnified Person from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or
judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any
time an Indemnified Person shall have requested an
Indemnifying Person to reimburse the Indemnified Person for
fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the third
sentence of this subsection (d), the Indemnifying Person
agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such
settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by
such Indemnifying Person of the aforesaid request and (ii)
such Indemnifying Person shall not have reimbursed the
Indemnified Person in accordance with such request prior to
the date of such settlement. No Indemnifying Person shall,
without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person,
effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
in respect of which any Indemnified Person is or could have
been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by
such Indemnified Person, unless such settlement includes an
unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all
liability on claims that are the subject matter of such
proceeding.
(e) If the indemnification provided for in subsections (a) or (c)
above is unavailable to an Indemnified Person in respect of
any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to
therein, then each Indemnifying Person under such subsection,
in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person thereunder,
shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages
or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Macquarie
Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand, and the
Underwriters on the other, from the offering of the US$ Notes,
and (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not
permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred
to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the
Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand, and
of the Underwriters on the other, in connection with the
statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by
the Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand,
and the Underwriters on the other, shall be deemed to be in
the
19
same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the
offering (before deducting expenses) received by the Macquarie
Parties and the Issuer Trustee and the total underwriting
discounts and the commissions received by the Underwriters in
respect thereof respectively bear to the aggregate public
offering price of the US$ Notes. The relative fault of the
Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee on the one hand and
the Underwriters on the other shall be determined by reference
to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue
statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged
omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee or by
the Underwriters and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.
The Macquarie Parties, the Issuer Trustee and the Underwriters
agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution
pursuant to this Section were determined by pro rata
allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one
entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation
that does not take account of the equitable considerations
referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. The amount
paid or payable by an Indemnified Person as a result of the
losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in this
subsection (e) shall be deemed to include, subject to the
limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses
incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with
investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 7, in no event
shall an Underwriter be required to contribute any amount in
excess of the amount by which the total price at which the US$
Notes underwritten by it and distributed to the public were
offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that
such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason
of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent
misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the
Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any
person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
misrepresentation. The Underwriters' obligations to contribute
pursuant to this Section 7 are several in proportion to the
respective principal amount of US$ Notes set forth opposite
their names in Schedule I hereto, and not joint.
The remedies provided for in this Section 7 are not exclusive
and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise
be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this
Section 7 and the representations and warranties of the
Macquarie Parties, the Issuer Trustee and the Underwriters set
forth in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full
force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this
Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any
Underwriter or any person controlling any Underwriter or by or
on behalf of the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee, its
officers or directors or any other person controlling the
Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee and (iii) acceptance
of and payment for any of the US$ Notes.
20
8. Termination.
Notwithstanding anything herein contained, this Agreement may be terminated in
the absolute discretion of the Representative, by notice given to the Manager,
if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing
Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on or
by the New York Stock Exchange, (ii) trading of any securities of or guaranteed
by any of the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee shall have been suspended
on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a general moratorium on
commercial banking activities in New York, Sydney, Australia or London, England
shall have been declared by either United States Federal, New York State,
Commonwealth of Australia, New South Wales State or related United Kingdom
authorities, or (iv) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of
hostilities or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that,
in the judgment of the Representative, is material and adverse and which, in the
judgment of the Representative, makes it impracticable to market the US$ Notes
on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Prospectus.
9. Effectiveness of Agreement; Default of Underwriters.
This Agreement shall become effective upon the later of (x) execution and
delivery hereof by the parties hereto and (y) release of notification of the
effectiveness of the Registration Statement (or, if applicable, any
post-effective amendment) by the Commission.
If on the Closing Date any one or more of the Underwriters shall fail or refuse
to purchase US$ Notes which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such
date, and the aggregate principal amount of US$ Notes which such defaulting
Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more
than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the US$ Notes to be
purchased on such date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally in
the proportions that the principal amount of US$ Notes set forth opposite their
respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of US$
Notes set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or
in such other proportions as the Representative may specify, to purchase the US$
Notes which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or
refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal
amount of US$ Notes that any Underwriter has agreed to purchase pursuant to
Section 1 be increased pursuant to this Section 9 by an amount in excess of
one-ninth of such principal amount of US$ Notes without the written consent of
such Underwriter. If on the Closing Date any Underwriter or Underwriters shall
fail or refuse to purchase US$ Notes which it or they have agreed to purchase
hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of US$ Notes with
respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate
principal amount of US$ Notes to be purchased on such date, and arrangements
satisfactory to the Representative and the Manager for the purchase of such US$
Notes are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall
terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the
Manager. In any such case either you or the Manager shall have the right to
postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order
that the required changes, if any, in the Registration Statement and in the
Prospectus or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action
taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from
liability in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
21
10. Expenses upon Termination.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them,
because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Macquarie Parties or the
Issuer Trustee to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of
this Agreement, or if for any reason any of the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer
Trustee shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any
condition of the Underwriters' obligations cannot be fulfilled, Macquarie agrees
to reimburse the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this
Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket
expenses(including the fees and expenses of their counsel) reasonably incurred
by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering
contemplated hereunder.
11. Fee Letter.
Notwithstanding any term or provision herein in relation to fees and expenses,
any obligation of reimbursement of such fees or expenses by a Macquarie Party
shall be subject to, and where applicable, superceded by, the terms and
provisions of the Fee Letter.
12. Consent to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent to Accept Service of
Process.
Each of the Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee hereby submits to
the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Federal and state courts in the Borough of
Manhattan in The City of New York in any suit or proceeding arising out of or
relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the
Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee irrevocably appoints CT Corporation,
000 Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, Xxx Xxxx 00000, as its authorized agent
in the Borough of Manhattan in The City of New York upon which process may be
served in any such suit or proceeding, and agrees that service or process upon
such agent, and written notice of said service to it by the person servicing the
same to the address provided in Section 19, shall be deemed in every respect
effective service of process upon it in any such suit or proceeding. Each of the
Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee further agrees to take any and all
action as may be necessary to maintain such designation and appointment of such
agent in full force and effect for so long as the US$ Notes remain outstanding.
The obligation of any of the Macquarie Parties or the Issuer Trustee in
respect of any sum due to any Underwriter shall, notwithstanding any judgment in
a currency other than United States dollars, not be discharged until the first
business day, following receipt by such Underwriter of any sum adjudged to be so
due in such other currency, on which (and only to the extent that) such
Underwriter may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase United
States dollars with such other currency; if the United States dollars so
purchased are less than the sum originally due to such Underwriter hereunder,
each of the Macquarie Parties and the Issuer Trustee agrees, as a separate
obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Underwriter
against such loss.
13. Foreign Taxes.
All payments to be made by the Issuer Trustee and the Macquarie Parties
hereunder shall be made without withholding or deduction for or on account of
any present or future taxes, duties or governmental charges whatsoever unless
the Issuer Trustee or such Macquarie Party, as applicable, is compelled by law
to deduct or withhold such taxes, duties or charges. In that event, the Issuer
Trustee or such Macquarie Party, as applicable, shall pay such additional
amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received after such
22
withholding or deduction shall equal the amounts that would have been received
if no withholding or deduction had been made.
14. Waiver of Immunities.
To the extent that any of the Issuer Trustee or any of the Macquarie Parties or
any of their properties, assets or revenues may have or may hereafter become
entitled to, or have attributed to it, any right of immunity, on the grounds of
sovereignty or otherwise, from any legal action, suit or proceeding, from the
giving of any relief in any respect thereof, from setoff or counterclaim, from
the jurisdiction of any court, from service or process, from attachment upon or
prior to judgment, from attachment in aid of execution of judgment, or from
execution of judgment, or other legal process or proceeding for the giving of
any relief or for the enforcement of any judgment, in any jurisdiction in which
proceedings may at any time be commenced, with respect to its obligations,
liabilities or any other matter under or arising out of or in connection with
this Agreement, the Issuer Trustee and each of the Macquarie Parties, as
applicable, hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to
plead or claim, any such immunity and consents to such relief and enforcement.
15. Judgment Currency.
If any judgment or order in any legal proceeding against any of the Issuer
Trustee or any of the Macquarie Parties is given or made for any amount due
hereunder and such judgment or order is expressed and paid in a currency (the
"Judgment Currency") other than United States dollars and there is any variation
as between (i) the rate of exchange (the "Judgment Rate") at which the United
States dollar amount is converted into Judgment Currency for the purpose of such
judgment or order, and (ii) the rate of exchange (the "Market Rate") at which
the person to whom such amounts is paid (the "Payee") is able to purchase United
States dollars with the amount of the Judgment Currency actually received by the
holder, then the difference, expressed in United States dollars, between such
amount calculated at the Judgment Rate and such amount calculated at the Market
Rate shall be indemnified (a) if negative by the Issuer Trustee and the
Macquarie Parties, as applicable, to the Payee and (b) if positive by the Payee
to the Issuer Trustee and the Macquarie Parties, as applicable. The foregoing
indemnity shall constitute a separate and independent obligations of the Issuer
Trustee and the Macquarie Parties or the Payee, as the case may be, and shall
continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any such judgment or order as
aforesaid. The term "rate or exchange" shall include any premiums and costs of
exchange payable in connection with the purchase of, or conversion into, the
relevant currency.
16. Selling Restrictions.
(a) No prospectus in relation to the US$ Notes has been lodged
with, or registered by, the Australian Securities and

invite applications for the issue of the US$ Notes or offer
the US$ Notes for sale or invite offers to purchase the US$
Notes to, a person, where the offer or invitation is received
by that person in Australia unless the minimum amount payable
to the relevant Underwriter for the US$ Notes, after
disregarding any amount paid or payable or lent by the
relevant Underwriter or any associate (as determined under
sections 10 to 17 of the Australian Corporations Act 2001) of
that Underwriter), on
23
acceptance of the offer by that person is at least A$500,000
(or the equivalent thereof in any other currency).
(b) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees with the
Issuer Trustee that, within 30 days of the date of this
Agreement, it will offer the US$ Notes for sale, or invite or
induce offers to buy the US$ Notes, by:
(i) making the Prospectus available for inspection on a
Bloomberg source and inviting potential investors to
access the Prospectus available on the Bloomberg
source; or
(ii) making hard copies of the Prospectus for the US$
Notes available for collection from the Underwriter
in at least its principal office in New York City or
London and, in the case of purchasers in the United
States, by sending or giving copies of the Prospectus
to those purchasers.
(c) Each Underwriter agrees that it will not sell US$ Notes to, or
invite or induce offers for US$ Notes from:
(i) any associate of the Issuer Trustee or a Macquarie
Party specified in Schedule II or Schedule III; or
(ii) any other associate from time to time specified in
writing to the Underwriter by the Issuer Trustee or a
Macquarie Party.
(d) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, agrees to: (i)
provide written advice to the Issuer Trustee and the Manager
within 40 days of the issue of the US$ Notes specifying that
it has complied with section 16(b); and (ii) cooperate with
reasonable requests from the Issuer Trustee for information
for the purposes of assisting the Issuer Trustee to
demonstrate that the public offer test under section 128F of
the Australian Tax Act has been satisfied in respect of the
US$ Notes; provided that no Underwriter shall be obliged to
disclose any information the disclosure of which would be
contrary to or prohibited by any relevant law, regulation or
directive.
(e) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, represents and
agrees that it (i) has only offered or sold, and will only
offer or sell any US$ Notes in the United Kingdom to persons:
(1) whose ordinary activities involve them in acquiring,
holding, managing or disposing of investments (as principal or
agent) for the purposes of their business or (2) to persons
whom it is reasonable to expect will acquire, hold, manage or
dispose of investments (as principal or agent) for the
purposes of their business except in circumstances that do not
constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within
the meaning of the Public Offers of Securities Regulation
1995, as amended, or the Financial Services Act, (ii) has
complied with and will comply with all applicable provisions
of the Financial Services Act with respect to anything done by
it in relation to the US$ Notes, in, from or otherwise
involving the United Kingdom, and (iii) has only issued or
passed on and will only issue or pass on in the United Kingdom
any document received by it in connection with the issue of
the US$ Notes, other than any document which consists of, or
24
any part of, listing particulars, supplementary listing
particulars or any other document required or permitted to be
published by listing rules under Part IV of the Financial
Services Act, to a person who is a kind described in Article
11(3) of the Financial Services Act (Investment
Advertisements) (Exemptions) Order 1996, as amended, or is a
person to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued
or passed on.
(f) Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, acknowledges that
no action has been taken to permit an offering of the US$
Notes in any jurisdiction outside the United States where any
action would be required to be taken for that purpose. Each
Underwriter will comply with all applicable securities laws
and regulations in each jurisdiction in which it purchases,
offer, sells or delivers US$ Notes or has in its possession or
distributes the Prospectus or any other offering material, in
all cases at its own expense.
17. Certain Matters relating to the Issuer Trustee.
The Issuer Trustee enters into this Agreement only in its capacity as trustee of
the Trust and in no other capacity. A liability incurred by the Issuer Trustee
acting in its capacity as Issuer Trustee of the Trust in respect of liabilities
arising under or in connection with this Agreement or the Trust is limited to
and can be enforced against the Issuer Trustee only to the extent to which it
can be satisfied out of assets of the Trust out of which the Issuer Trustee is
actually indemnified for such liability. This limitation of the Issuer Trustee's
liability described in this Section applies despite any other provisions of this
Agreement and extends to all liabilities and obligations of the Issuer Trustee
in any way connected with any representation, warranty, conduct, omission,
agreement or transaction related to this Agreement or the Trust.
The parties other than the Issuer Trustee may not xxx the Issuer Trustee in
respect of liabilities incurred by the Issuer Trustee acting in its capacity as
Issuer Trustee of the Trust in any capacity other than as trustee of the Trust
or seek the appointment of a receiver (except in relation to the assets of the
Trust) or a liquidator, an administrator or any other similar person to the
Issuer Trustee or prove in any liquidation, administration or arrangements of or
affecting the Issuer Trustee (except in relation to the assets of the Trust).
The provisions of this clause 13 shall not apply to any obligation or liability
of the Issuer Trustee to the extent that it is not satisfied because under the
Trust Deed, this Agreement or any other Basic Document or by operation of law
there is a reduction in the extent of the Issuer Trustee's indemnification or
exoneration out of the assets of the Trust as a result of the Issuer Trustee's
fraud, negligence or wilful default.
It is acknowledged that the Relevant Parties (as defined in the Note Conditions)
are responsible under the Basic Documents (as defined in the Trust Deed) for
performing a variety of obligations relating to the Trust. No act or omission of
the Issuer Trustee (including any related failure to satisfy its obligations
under the Basic Documents) will be considered fraudulent, negligent or a willful
default for the purpose of this Agreement to the extent to which the act or
omission was caused or contributed to by any failure by any Relevant Party or
any other person who provides services in respect of the Trust (other than a
person who has been delegated or appointed by the Issuer Trustee and for whom
the Issuer Trustee is responsible under the relevant Basic Document, but
excluding any Relevant Party) to fulfil its obligations relating to the Trust or
by any other act or omission of a Relevant Party or by any
25
other person who provides services in respect of the Issuer Trustee (other than
a person who has been delegated or appointed by the Issuer Trustee and for whom
the Issuer Trustee is responsible under the Basic Documents, but excluding any
Relevant Party).
18. Successors.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Macquarie
Parties, the Issuer Trustee, the Underwriters, each affiliate of any Underwriter
which assists such Underwriter in the distribution of the US$ Notes, any
controlling persons referred to herein and their respective successors and
assigns. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall
be construed to give any other person, firm or corporation any legal or
equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any
provision herein contained. No purchaser of US$ Notes from any Underwriter shall
be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.
19. Actions by Representative; Notices.
Any action by the Underwriters hereunder may be taken by the Representative on
behalf of the Underwriters, and any such action taken by the Representative
shall be binding upon the Underwriters. All notices and other communications
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if
