9.1 Additional payments
Whenever the Redraw Facility Provider determines that:
(a) the effective cost to the Redraw Facility Provider of making,
funding or maintaining any Redraw Advance or the Redraw Limit
is increased in any way;
(b) any amount paid or payable to the Redraw Facility Provider or
received or receivable by the Redraw Facility Provider, or the
effective return to the Redraw Facility Provider, under or in
respect of this agreement is reduced in any way;
(c) the return of the Redraw Facility Provider on the capital
which is or becomes directly or indirectly allocated by the
Redraw Facility Provider to any Redraw Advance or the Redraw
Limit is reduced in any way; or
(d) to the extent any relevant law, official directive or request
relates to or affects the Redraw Limit, any Redraw Advance or
this agreement, the overall return on capital of the Redraw
Facility Provider or any of its holding companies is reduced
in any way,
as a result of any change in, any making of or any change in the
interpretation or application by any Government Agency of, any law,
official directive or request, then:
Page 8
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(e) (when it has calculated the effect of the above and the amount
to be charged to the Trustee under this clause) the Redraw
Facility Provider shall promptly notify the Trust Manager and
the Trustee; and
(f) on the following Payment Date from time to time the Trustee
shall, subject to clause 6 of the Series Notice, pay for the
account of the Redraw Facility Provider the amount certified
by an Authorised Signatory of the Redraw Facility Provider to
be necessary to compensate the Redraw Facility Provider for
the increased cost or the reduction (from the date of the
notice).
Without limiting the above in any way, this clause applies:
(g) to any law, official directive or request with respect to
Taxation (other than any Tax on the net income of any person)
or reserve, liquidity, capital adequacy, special deposit or
similar requirements;
(h) to official directives or requests which do not have the
force of law where it is the practice of responsible bankers
or financial institutions in the country concerned to comply
with them; and
(i) where the increased cost or the reduction arises because the
Redraw Facility Provider is restricted in its capacity to
enter other transactions, is required to make a payment, or
forgoes or earns reduced interest or other return on any
capital or on any sum calculated by reference in any way to
the amount of any Redraw Advance, the Redraw Limit or to any
other amount paid or payable or received or receivable under
this agreement or allocates capital to any such sum.
9.2 Minimisation
(a) (No defence) If the Redraw Facility Provider has acted in good
faith it will not be a defence that any cost, reduction or
payment referred to in this clause could have been avoided.
(b) (Minimisation) The Redraw Facility Provider shall use
reasonable endeavours to minimise any cost, reduction or
payment referred to in this clause.

This clause survives the repayment of any relevant Redraw Advance and

27. LIMITED RECOURSE
27.1 General
Clause 33 of the Master Trust Deed applies to the obligations and
liabilities of the Trustee and the Trust Manager under this agreement.
27.2 Liability of Trustee limited to its right to indemnity
(a) This agreement applies to the Trustee only in its capacity as
trustee of the Trust and in no other capacity. A liability
arising under or in connection with this agreement or the
Trust can be enforced against the Trustee only to the extent
to which it can be satisfied out of property of the Trust out
of which the Trustee is actually indemnified for the
liability. This limitation of the Trustee's liability applies
despite any other provision of this agreement and extends to
all liabilities and obligations of the Trustee in any way
connected with any representation, warranty, conduct,
omission, agreement or transaction related to this agreement
or the Trust.
Page 16
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) The parties other than the Trustee may not xxx the Trustee in
any capacity other than as trustee of the Trust or seek the
appointment of a receiver (except under the Security Trust
Deed), or a liquidator, an administrator or any similar person
to the Trustee or prove in any liquidation, administration or
arrangements of or affecting the Trustee.
(c) The provisions of this clause 3 shall not apply to any
obligation or liability of the Trustee to the extent that it
is not satisfied because under a Transaction Document or by
operation of law there is a reduction in the extent of the
Trustee's indemnification out of the Assets of the Trust as a
result of the Trustee's fraud, negligence or breach of trust.
(d) It is acknowledged that the Trust Manager, the Servicer, the
Note Trustee, the Principal Paying Agent, the other Paying
Agents and the Agent Bank (each a Relevant Party) are
responsible under this agreement and the other Transaction
Documents for performing a variety of obligations relating to
the Trust. No act or omission of the Trustee (including any
related failure to satisfy its obligations under this
agreement) will be considered fraud, negligence or breach of
trust of the Trustee for the purpose of sub-paragraph (c) 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 Trustee and for whom the Trustee is responsible under this
agreement or the relevant Transaction Documents, 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
any other person who provides services in respect of the Trust
(other than a person who has been delegated or appointed by
the Trustee and for whom the Trustee is responsible under this
agreement or the relevant Transaction Documents, but excluding
any Relevant Party).
(e) No attorney, agent, receiver or receiver and manager appointed
in accordance with this agreement or any other Transaction
Documents (including a Relevant Party) has authority to act on
behalf of the Trustee in a way which exposes the Trustee to
any personal liability and no act or omission of any such
person will be considered fraud, negligence or breach of trust
of the Trustee for the purpose of sub-paragraph (c), if the
Trustee has exercised reasonable care in the selection and
supervision of such a person.
27.3 Unrestricted remedies
Nothing in clause 27.2 limits the Redraw Facility Provider in:
(a) obtaining an injunction or other order to restrain any breach
of this agreement by any party;
(b) obtaining declaratory relief; or
(c) in relation to its rights under the Security Trust Deed.
27.4 Restricted remedies
Except as provided in clause 27.3, the Redraw Facility Provider shall
not:
(a) (judgment) obtain a judgment for the payment of money or
damages by the Trustee;
Page 17
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(b) (statutory demand) issue any demand under s459E(1) of the
Corporations Law (or any analogous provision under any other
law) against the Trustee;
(c) (winding up) apply for the winding up or dissolution of the
Trustee;
(d) (execution) levy or enforce any distress or other execution
to, on, or against any assets of the Trustee;
(e) (court appointed receiver) apply for the appointment by a
court of a receiver to any of the assets of the Trustee;
(f) (set-off or counterclaim) exercise or seek to exercise any
set-off or counterclaim against the Trustee; or
(g) (administrator) appoint, or agree to the appointment, of any
administrator to the Trustee,
or take proceedings for any of the above and the Redraw Facility
Provider waives its rights to make those applications and take those
proceedings.
28. REDRAW FACILITY PROVIDER'S OBLIGATIONS
The Trustee shall have no recourse to the Redraw Facility Provider in
relation to this agreement beyond its terms, and the Redraw Facility
Provider's obligations under this agreement are separate from, and
independent to, any obligations the Redraw Facility Provider may have
to the Trustee for any other reason (including under any other Trust
Document).
29. SUCCESSOR TRUSTEE
The Redraw Facility Provider shall do all things reasonably necessary
to enable any successor Trustee appointed under clause 24 of the Master
Trust Deed to become the Trustee under this agreement.
