"15. CAPACITY OF PARTY B AND THE MANAGER
(a) Party B enters into this Agreement only in its capacity as
trustee of the Securitisation Fund under the Master Trust Deed
and in no other capacity. A
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 42
liability incurred by Party B arising under or in connection
with this Agreement is limited to and can be enforced against
Party B only to the extent to which it can be satisfied out of
the assets of the Securitisation Fund which are available to
satisfy the right of Party B to be exonerated or indemnified
for the liability. This limitation of Party B's liability
applies despite any other provision of this Agreement other
than section 15(c) and extends to all liabilities and
obligations of Party B in any way connected with any
representation, warranty, conduct, omission, agreement or
transaction related to this Agreement.
(b) The parties other than Party B may not xxx Party B in any
capacity other than as trustee of the Securitisation Fund or
seek the appointment of a receiver (except in relation to the
assets of the Securitisation Fund), or a liquidator, an
administrator or any similar person to Party B or prove in any
liquidation, administration or arrangement of or affecting
Party B (except in relation to the assets of the
Securitisation Fund).
(c) The provisions of this Section 15 shall not apply to any
obligation or liability of Party B to the extent that it is
not satisfied because under the Master Trust Deed or any other
Transaction Document or by operation of law there is a
reduction in the extent of Party B's indemnification or
exoneration out of the assets of the Securitisation Fund, as a
result of Party B's fraud, negligence or Wilful Default.
(d) It is acknowledged that the Manager is responsible under the
Master Trust Deed for performing a variety of obligations
relating to the Securitisation Fund, including under this
Agreement. No act or omission of Party B (including any
related failure to satisfy its obligations or breach of a
representation or warranty under this Agreement) will be
considered fraud, negligence or Wilful Default of Party B for
the purpose of Section 15(c) to the extent to which the act or
omission was caused or contributed to by any failure by the
Manager or any other person to fulfil its obligations relating
to the Securitisation Fund or by any other act or omission of
the Manager or any other person.
(e) Party B is not obliged to do or refrain from doing anything
under this Agreement (including incurring any liability)
unless Party B's liability is limited in the same manner as
set out in Sections 15(b) to 15(d) and 15(f).
(f) No attorney, agent, receiver or receiver and manager appointed
in accordance with this Agreement has authority to act on
behalf of Party B in a way which exposes Party B to any
personal liability and no act or omission of any such person
will be considered fraud, negligence or Wilful Default of
Party B for the purpose of Section 15(c).
(g) Subject to the provisions related to deemed receipt of notices
and other communications under this Agreement, Party B will
only be considered to have knowledge or awareness of, or
notice of, any thing, or grounds to believe any thing, by
virtue of the officers of Party B having day to day
responsibility for the administration or management of Party
B's obligations in relation to the Securitisation Fund having
actual knowledge, actual awareness or actual notice of that
thing, or grounds or reason to believe that thing (and similar
references will be interpreted in this way). In addition,
notice, knowledge or awareness of an Event of Default or other
default (howsoever described) means notice, knowledge or
awareness of the occurrence of the events or circumstances
constituting that Event of Default or other default (as the
case may be).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 43
(h) In this Agreement, except where expressly provided to the
contrary:
(i) a reference to Party B is a reference to Party B in its
capacity as trustee of the Securitisation Fund only, and
in no other capacity; and
(ii) a reference to the undertaking, assets, business, money
or any other thing of or in relation to Party B is a
reference to such undertaking, assets, business, money
or other thing of or in relation to Party B only in its
capacity as trustee of the Securitisation Fund, and in
no other capacity.
(i) The provision of this Section 15:
(i) are paramount and apply regardless of any other
provision of this Agreement or any other instrument,
even a provision which seeks to apply regardless of any
other provision;
(ii) survive and endure beyond any termination of this
Agreement for any reason; and
(iii) are not severable from this Agreement.
16. REPLACEMENT SWAP TRANSACTION
(a) If any Transaction under this Agreement is terminated, Party B
must, subject to paragraph (b), at the direction of the
Manager, enter into one or more swaps which replace those
Transactions (collectively a "REPLACEMENT SWAP TRANSACTION")
but only on the following conditions:
(i) the amount payable under Section 6(e) (if any) by Party
B to Party A upon termination of any Transactions will
be paid in full when due in accordance with the
Supplementary Bond Terms Notice and this Agreement;
(ii) the Designated Rating Agencies confirm that the
Replacement Swap Transaction will not cause a reduction
or withdrawal of the ratings of the Notes; and
(iii) the liability of Party B under the Replacement Swap
Transaction is limited to at least the same extent that
its liability is limited under this Agreement.
(b) If the conditions in Section 16(a) are satisfied, Party B
must, provided it is satisfied with the terms of the
Replacement Swap Transaction, acting reasonably and
considering the interests of Class A Offered Noteholders, at
the direction of the Manager, enter into the Replacement Swap
Transaction and if it does it must direct the Replacement Swap
Transaction provider to pay any upfront premium to enter into
the Replacement Swap Transaction due to Party B directly to
Party A in satisfaction of and to the extent of Party B's
obligation to pay an amount to Party A as referred to in
Section 16(a)(i) and to the extent that such premium is not
greater than or equal to the amount referred to in Section
16(a)(i), the balance must be satisfied by Party B as an
Expense of the Securitisation Fund.
(c) If Party B enters into a Replacement Swap Transaction pursuant
to Section 16(a), Party B must direct Party A to pay any
amount payable under Section 6(e) by Party A to Party B on
termination of this Agreement or any Transaction directly to
the Replacement Swap Transaction provider as payment of and to
the extent of any premium payable by Party B to enter into the
Replacement Swap Transaction, in satisfaction of and to the
extent of Party A's obligation to pay that part of the amount
payable under Section 6(e) to Party B.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 44
17. SEGREGATION
The liability of Party B under this Agreement is several and is
separate in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction. The failure
of Party B to perform its obligations in respect of any Relevant
Swap Transaction does not release Party B from its obligations under
this Agreement or under any other Relevant Swap Transaction in
respect of any other Class A Offered Notes issued by Party B.
Nothing in this Agreement affects the respective priority rankings
of claims against the Charged Property under the Security Trust
Deed. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
provisions of this Agreement have effect separately and severally in
respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction and are enforceable by or
against Party B as though a separate agreement applied between Party
A, Party B and the Manager for each Relevant Swap Transaction, so
that (among other things):
(i) this Agreement together with each Confirmation relating to a
Relevant Swap Transaction will form a single separate
agreement between Party A, Party B and the Manager and
references to the respective obligations (including references
to payment obligations generally and in the context of
provisions for the netting of payments and the calculation of
amounts due on early termination) of Party A, Party B and the
Manager shall be construed accordingly as a several reference
to each mutual set of obligations arising under each such
separate agreement between Party A, Party B and the Manager;
(ii) representations made and agreements entered into by the
parties under this Agreement are made and entered separately
and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap Transaction and
may be enforced separately and severally in respect of each
Relevant Swap Transaction;
(iii) rights of termination, and obligations and entitlements
consequent upon termination, only accrue to Party A against
Party B separately and severally in respect of each Relevant
Swap Transaction, and only accrue to Party B against Party A
separately and severally in respect of each Relevant Swap
Transaction; and
(iv) the occurrence of an Event of Default or Termination Event in
respect of a Relevant Swap Transaction does not in itself
constitute an Event of Default or Termination Event in respect
of any other Relevant Swap Transaction.
(s) TELEPHONE RECORDING: Each party:
(i) consents to the recording of the telephone conversations of trading
and marketing personnel of that party and its Affiliates in
connection with this Agreement or any potential transaction; and
(ii) agrees to obtain any necessary consent of, and give notice of such
recording to, such personnel of it and its Affiliates; and
(iii) will provide transcripts of such recordings (if any) upon reasonable
request by another party; and
(iv) acknowledges that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, such
recordings and transcripts can be used as evidence by another party
in any dispute between them.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 45
(t) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PARTIES: Each party will be deemed to represent to
the other parties on the date on which it enters into a Transaction that
(absent a written agreement between the parties that expressly imposes
affirmative obligations to the contrary for the Transaction):
(i) NON-RELIANCE. It is acting for its own account (or, in the case of
Party B, as trustee of the Securitisation Fund), and it has made its
own independent decisions to enter into that Transaction and as to
whether that Transaction is appropriate or proper for it based upon
its own judgment and in the case of Party B, on the judgment of the
Manager, and upon advice from such advisers as it has deemed
necessary. It is not relying on any communication (written or oral)
of the other party as investment advice or as a recommendation to
enter into that Transaction; it being understood that information
and explanations related to the terms and conditions of a
Transaction shall not be considered investment advice or a
recommendation to enter into that Transaction. No communication
(written or oral) received from the other party shall be deemed to
be an assurance or guarantee as to the expected results of that
Transaction.
(ii) ASSESSMENT AND UNDERSTANDING. It is capable of assessing the merits
of and understanding (on its own behalf or through independent
professional advice), and understands and accepts, the terms,
conditions and risks of that Transaction. It is also capable of
assuming, and assumes, the risks of that Transaction.
(iii) STATUS OF PARTIES. The other party is not acting as a fiduciary for
or as an adviser to it in respect of that Transaction.
(u) APPOINTMENT OF MANAGER: Party A acknowledges that under the Master Trust
Deed Party B has appointed the Manager as manager of the Securitisation
Fund with the powers set out in and upon and subject to the terms of, the
Master Trust Deed. Accordingly, subject to the terms of the Master Trust
Deed, the Manager:
(i) may arrange, enter into, and monitor Transactions, execute
Confirmations and exercise all other rights and powers of Party B
under this Agreement; and
(ii) without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Manager shall
issue and receive, on behalf of Party B all notices, Confirmations,
certificates and other communications to or by Party A under this
Agreement.
Subject to Section 15, Party B agrees that it is bound by anything the
Manager does under this Part 5(u).
Party A is not obliged to enquire into the authority of the Manager to
exercise or satisfy any of Party B's rights or obligations on Party B's
behalf.
(v) RATINGS DOWNGRADE:
(i) In the event that the unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations
of Party A (or any applicable assignee or its guarantor) shall have
(1) a long term credit rating of less than [AA-] by S&P and a
short-term credit rating of less than [A-1+] by S&P, or (2) a long
term credit rating of less than [A2] by Moody's and a short term
credit rating of less than [P-1] by Moody's, or (3) a long term
credit rating of less than [BBB+] by Fitch Ratings and a short term
credit rating of less than [F2] by Fitch Ratings and Party B does
not receive written affirmation of the then current rating of the
Notes, then Party A shall immediately notify the Designated Rating
Agencies and Party B and within 5 Local Business Days (or 30 Local
Business Days if the downgrade is to no less than [A-] (S&P long
term) and [A-1] (S&P short term) and [A3] (Moody's long term) and
[A+] (Fitch long term) and [F1] (Fitch short term)) of such
downgrade (unless during this period, Party A and Party B receive
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 46
written confirmation from S&P, Fitch Ratings and Moody's that such
downgrade would not result in the Notes either being downgraded or
placed under review for possible downgrade) at its cost either:
(A) put in place an appropriate xxxx-to-market collateral
agreement (consisting of either cash or securities) which is
based either on S&P's New Interest Rate and Currency Swap
Criteria published in February 2004 (as may be amended from
time to time), Moody's Framework for De-Linking Hedge
Counterparty Risks from Global Structured Finance Cashflow
Transactions published May 2006 (as amended from time to
time), Fitch Ratings' Counterparty Risk in Structured Finance
Transactions: Swap Criteria published on 13 September 2004 (as
amended from time to time) or on any other agreement reached
between the parties (whichever of these has the highest
ratings criteria), in support of its obligations under the
Agreement, PROVIDED that Party A and Party B receive prior
written confirmation from S&P, Fitch Ratings and Moody's that
the rating assigned to the Notes then outstanding by S&P,
Fitch Ratings and Xxxxx'x is not adversely affected by the
downgrade following such collateral arrangements being put in
place and PROVIDED FURTHER that this Part 5(v)(i)(A) will not
apply where the long term credit rating falls to [BBB+] (or
less) by Fitch Ratings and the short term credit rating falls
to [F2] (or less) by Fitch Ratings;
(B) transfer all its rights and obligations with respect to this
Agreement to a replacement third party, which each Designated
Rating Agency has provided its Rating Agency Confirmation,
whose unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations have (1) a
long term credit rating of at least [AA-] by S&P and a
short-term credit rating of at least [A-1+] by S&P, or (2) a
long term credit rating of at least [A2] by Moody's and a
short term credit rating of at least [P-1] by Moody's, or (3)
a long term credit rating of at least [A+] by Fitch Ratings
and a short term credit rating of at least [F1] by Fitch
Ratings;
(C) procure that its obligations with respect to this Agreement
are guaranteed by a third party resident outside Australia
whose unsecured and unsubordinated debt obligations have (1) a
long term credit rating of at least AA- by S&P and a
short-term credit rating of at least [A-1+] by S&P, or (2) a
long term credit rating of at least [A2] by Moody's and a
short term credit rating of at least [P-1] by Moody's, or (3)
a long term credit rating of at least [A+] by Fitch Ratings
and a short term credit rating of at least [F1] by Fitch
Ratings; or
(D) enter into such other arrangements which each Designated
Rating Agency has confirmed will result in there not being a
withdrawal or downgrade of any credit rating assigned by it to
the Notes.
(ii) Where Party A transfers its rights and obligations to a replacement
counterparty in accordance with Part 5(v)(i)(B), the Trustee, at the
direction of the Manager, and each other party to this Agreement
shall do all things reasonably necessary at the cost of Party A to
novate the relevant rights and obligations to the replacement
counterparty.
(iii) If, at any time, Party A's obligations under this Agreement are
transferred in accordance with Part 5(v)(i)(B), Party A shall be
immediately entitled to any collateral which it has provided under
any collateral agreement contemplated by Part 5(v)(i)(A) (less any
amount withdrawn in accordance with Part 5(v)(iv)).
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 47
(iv) Party B may only make withdrawals from any account into which
collateral is provided by Party A (the COLLATERAL ACCOUNT) if
directed to do so by the Manager and then only for the purpose of:
(A) transferring obligations under this Agreement in accordance
with Part 5(v)(i)(B) (including the costs of obtaining a
replacement counterparty);
(B) refunding to Party A any excess in the amount of any
collateral deposited to the Collateral Account over the amount
Party A is required to maintain under any collateral agreement
contemplated by Part 5(v)(i)(A);
(C) withdrawing any amount which has been incorrectly deposited
into the Collateral Account;
(D) paying bank accounts debit tax or other equivalent Taxes
payable in respect of the Collateral Account;
(E) funding the amount of any payment due to be made by Party A
under this Agreement following the failure by Party A to make
that payment; or
(F) making interest payments to Party A as contemplated by Part
5(v)(v).
The Manager must direct Party B to, and Party B must, refund or pay
to Party A the amount of any payment which may be made to Party A
under (B), (C) or (F) above as soon as such refund or payment is
possible.
(v) All interest on the Collateral Account will accrue and be payable
monthly to Party A providing the amount deposited to the Collateral
Account is not less than the amount Party A is required to maintain
under the collateral agreement contemplated by Part 5(v)(i)(A).
(w) EXCHANGE CONTROLS
Section 5(b)(i) (ILLEGALITY) is amended by adding the following paragraph
at the end:
"this sub paragraph (i) does not apply to the imposition by the
Australian government or any agency of the Australian government of
any exchange control restrictions or prohibitions ("EXCHANGE
CONTROLS"). For the avoidance of doubt:
(A) exchange controls do not constitute an Illegality or other
Termination Event or an Event of Default under this Agreement,
and do not entitle a party to terminate a Transaction or
otherwise refuse to make any payments it is obliged to make
under a Transaction; and
(B) if and for so long as exchange controls are imposed, delivery
by either party of Australian dollar amounts required to be
paid by it under any relevant Confirmation to the bank account
in Australia notified in writing by a party (the "PAYER") to
the other party from time to time specified in that
Confirmation will constitute proper payment of those amounts
by that other party and the payer's obligations under this
Agreement will be unaffected by any such exchange controls.
Nothing in this Section 5(b)(i) limits the rights of Party A
or Party B in relation to any other Termination Event or Event
of Default resulting from such event including any rights of
Party A or Party B arising as a result of a failure by Party A
or Party B to make any payment in accordance with this
Agreement."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 48
(x) TRANSFER
A new paragraph (c) is added to Section 7 as follows:
"a party may make such a transfer in accordance with this Agreement
or the Security Trust Deed".
and the full-stop at the end of paragraph (b) is replaced with "; and"
(y) PARTY B'S PAYMENT INSTRUCTIONS
Party B irrevocably authorises and instructs Party A to make payment of:
(i) the Initial Exchange Amount (as defined in a Confirmation) payable
by Party A under a currency swap transaction by paying that amount
direct to the account notified in writing by Party B to Party A for
that purpose; and
(ii) any other amount due from Party A to Party B under this Agreement by
paying that amount direct to the relevant Paying Agent to the
account notified in writing by the relevant Paying Agent to Party A
for that purpose. Party A is entitled to rely on any such notice.
(z) NO AMENDMENT
(i) Each of Party B and the Manager agrees that it will not consent to
any amendment to any provision in any Transaction Document dealing
with the ranking, priority or entitlement of Party A in respect of
any security or moneys without the prior written consent of Party A.
(ii) No amendment may be made to this agreement unless each of the
Designated Rating Agencies has provided a Rating Agency
Confirmation.
(aa) REGULATION AB FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE
(i) Party A acknowledges that for so long as there are reporting
obligations with respect to any Transaction under this Agreement
under Regulation AB, the Manager is required under Regulation AB to
disclose certain information set forth in Regulation AB regarding
Party A or its group of affiliated entities, if applicable,
depending on the aggregate significance percentage of this Agreement
and any other derivative contracts between Party A or its group of
affiliated entities, if applicable, and Party B, as calculated from
time to time in accordance with Item 1115 of Regulation AB.
(ii) If the Manger determines, reasonably and in good faith, that the
significance percentage of this Agreement is or has become:
(A) 8% or more; or
(B) 18% or more,
then on any Local Business Day after the date of such determination,
Party B (at the direction of the Manager) or the Manager may request
Party A to provide the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure.
(iii) Party A, at its own expense, shall within four Local Business Days
after receipt of a Swap Financial Disclosure Request provide the
Manager with the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure.
(iv) If Party A is not able to provide the relevant Swap Financial
Disclosure in accordance with Part 5(aa)(iii) of this Schedule, then
Party A at its own expense, shall secure another
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
page 49
entity to replace Party A as party to this Agreement on terms
substantially similar to this Agreement which entity is able to and
will provide the Swap Financial Disclosure for such entity within
the time period specified in Part 5(aa)(iii) of this Schedule
(subject to Rating Agency Confirmation having been obtained and to
approval by the Manager (which approval will not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed)).
(v) The parties agree that, if permitted by Regulation AB, any required
Swap Financial Disclosure may be provided by incorporation by
reference from reports filed pursuant to the Exchange Act. The
parties agree that the Manager and the Securitisation Fund are
authorised to incorporate by reference into the prospectus relating
to the Securitisation Fund and reports filed by the Manager or the
Securitisation Fund with the Commission pursuant to section 13(a) or
15(d) of the Exchange Act any required Swap Financial Disclosure
contained in any reports filed by Party A with the Commission
pursuant to section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The parties
also agree that the Manager and the Securitisation Fund are
authorised to incorporate by reference into the prospectus relating
to the Securitisation Fund any documents filed by Party A with the
Commission pursuant to section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act
after the date of this Agreement and prior to the termination of the
offering described in the prospectus relating to the Securitisation
Fund.
(iv) Party A shall indemnify the Manager, the Securitisation Fund and
each underwriter, the respective present and former directors,
officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing and each
person, if any, who controls the Manager, the Securitisation Fund or
any underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities
Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively, the
"indemnified persons") and shall hold each of them harmless from and
against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(including legal fees and reasonable expenses) to which any of them
may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or
otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon:
(A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any
material fact contained in the Swap Financial Disclosure
provided by Party A;
(B) any omission or alleged omission to state in the Swap
Financial Disclosure provided by Party A a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading; or
(C) any failure by Party A to provide the Manager with the
relevant Swap Financial Disclosure when and as required under
this Part 5(aa); provided, however, that, if Party A secures
another entity to replace Party A as party to this Agreement
pursuant to Part 5(aa)(iv) of this Schedule, Party A shall not
be liable for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(including reasonable legal fees and expenses) to which any of
the indemnified persons may become subject arising out of or
based upon a failure by Party A to provide the Manager with
the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure following the provision
of the relevant Swap Financial Disclosure by the other entity
to the Manager.
The provisions of this Part 5(aa)(vi) shall not limit whatever
rights the Manager may have under other provisions of this
Agreement, the other Transaction Documents or otherwise, whether in
equity or at law, such as an action for damages, specific
performance or injunctive relief.
