4. Charge

in the Charged Property, subject only to the Prior Interest, to the
Security Trustee for the payment in full of all the Secured Moneys.

The Charge is a floating charge over the Charged Property.
4.3 Ranking of Charge
Subject only to the Prior Interest, the Charge is a first ranking charge
having priority over all other Security Interests of the Trustee over the
Charged Property.
4.4 Crystallisation of Floating Charge
If the Charge has not otherwise taken effect as a fixed charge, it takes
effect as a fixed
charge automatically and immediately over all the Charged Property if an
Event of Default occurs, other than if an Event of Default described in
clauses 7(c) or (e) occurs, in which event it takes effect as a fixed
charge automatically and immediately over the affected Charged Property.
Upon the Charge becoming a fixed charge pursuant to the foregoing
provisions of this clause, the Security Trustee is deemed to have
intervened at that point in time and to have exercised all its rights of
intervention in respect of the relevant Charged Property.
4.5 Consent to Dealings
The Trustee must not (and the Manager will not give any direction to the
Trustee to) dispose of or deal with the Charged Property, whether the
Charge is floating or fixed unless such disposition or such other dealing
is permitted by or required by and will be effected in accordance with the
terms of the Master Trust Deed, the Series Supplement or any other
Transaction Document. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
the Trustee or its delegates may (notwithstanding that the Charge has
taken effect as a fixed charge) discharge in accordance with the terms of
the Transaction Documents, any Mortgage Loan, Mortgage or Collateral
Security. Any Mortgage Loan, Mortgage or Collateral Security which is
discharged by the Trustee or its delegates pursuant to this clause will
automatically, and without the need for any act on the part of the
Security Trustee, be free from and released from this Charge.
4.6 Re-Conversion from Fixed into Floating Charge
Subject to clause 4.7, at any time after the Charge has taken effect as a
fixed charge over the Charged Property, the Security Trustee may (and
will, if directed by an Extraordinary Resolution of the then Voting
Secured Creditors) by notice in writing to the Trustee convert the Charge
from a fixed charge into a floating charge as regards any asset or assets
specified in such notice. Upon such notice being received by the Trustee,
the Charge as regards such specified asset or assets will immediately
become and operate as a floating charge subject to the provisions of this
Deed and will cease to be a fixed charge over such specified asset or
assets.
4.7 Replacement of fixed charge over Charged Property
If the Charge has taken effect as a fixed charge as a result of the
occurrence of the Event of Default described in clause 7(a)(i) the
Security Trustee must, upon notification from the Manager that another
Authorised Trustee Corporation has been appointed as trustee of the Series
Trust, by notice in writing to the Trustee convert the charge from a fixed
charge into a floating charge as regards the Charged Property.
4.8 Subsequent dealing
From the effective date specified in a notice given under clause 4.6 or
4.7:
(a) (Trustee may deal as if floating charge): the Trustee may deal with
the Charged Property the subject of the notice, if it was acquired
by the Trustee before the effective date of the notice, as if it had
always been charged by way of floating charge under this Deed;
(b) (Treat the fixing as not having occurred): the floating charge given
by this Deed in respect of Charged Property the subject of the
notice acquired by the Trustee on or after the effective date of the
notice continues to operate as a floating charge as if it had never
been a fixed charge; and
(c) (Third person may rely on notice that Charge is floating): a person
dealing
with the Trustee in relation to the Charged Property the subject of
the notice may rely on a notice from the Security Trustee as
conclusive evidence that, as at the time the notice is issued, such
Charged Property is charged by way of floating charge.
4.9 Limit and Prospective Liability Amount
(a) (Amount Recoverable): The Charge is security for the whole of the
Secured Moneys, but the aggregate amount recoverable under the
Charge may not exceed A$30,000,000,000.
(b) (Fixed Priorities): For the purposes of fixing priorities between
the Charge and any subsequent charge registered under the
Corporations Law, the Charge secures a prospective liability up to a
maximum amount of A$30,000,000,000.
(c) (No Obligation): Nothing in this clause 4.9 creates any obligation
upon the Security Trustee to enter into any arrangement or to
advance any moneys or do any act or thing as a result whereof if so
created, entered into, advanced or done there would be Secured
Moneys, or limits or affects the provisions of section 279(2) of the

discretion), the Security Trustee being adequately indemnified
to its reasonable satisfaction from the Charged Property or,
if requested at any time before or during the relevant
meeting, the Security Trustee receiving from the Voting
Secured Creditors an indemnity in a form reasonably
satisfactory to the Security Trustee (which may be by way of
an Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Secured Creditors)
against all actions, proceedings, claims and demands to which
it may render itself liable, and all costs, charges, damages
and expenses which it may incur, in giving effect to an
Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Secured Creditors.
(c) (Ranking of indemnities): The Security Trustee must first claim on
its indemnity from the Charged Property and if it does not receive
such indemnity from the Charged Property within 2 Business Days of

8.4 Security Trustee Must Receive Indemnity
If:
(a) (Security Trustee requires indemnity): the Security Trustee convenes
a meeting of the Voting Secured Creditors, or is required by an
Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Secured Creditors to take any
action to enforce this Deed, and advises the Voting Secured
Creditors at any time before or during the meeting that the Security
Trustee will not take that action in relation to the enforcement of
this Deed unless it is personally indemnified by the Voting Secured
Creditors to its reasonable satisfaction against all actions,
proceedings, claims and demands to which it may render itself
liable, and all costs, charges, damages and expenses which it may
incur, in relation to the enforcement of this Deed and put in funds
to the extent to which it may become liable (including costs and
expenses); and
(b) (Voting Secured Creditors refuse to grant indemnity): the Voting
Secured Creditors refuse to grant the requested indemnity and put it
in funds,
the Security Trustee will not be obliged to act in relation to the
enforcement of this Deed. In these circumstances, the Voting Secured
Creditors may then exercise such powers, and enjoy such protections and
indemnities, of the Security Trustee under this Deed, any Security
Interest or any other document or agreement at any time created or entered
into in favour of the Security Trustee as security for the Secured Moneys
or by law as they determine by Extraordinary Resolution. The Security
Trustee will not be liable in any manner whatsoever if the Voting Secured
Creditors exercise, or do not exercise, the rights given to them in the
preceding sentence.
8.5 Notice to Trustee

necessary Extraordinary Resolutions, in accordance with clause 8.1(b), the

necessary Extraordinary Resolutions (as the case may be), in accordance
with this clause 8, which meeting is to have only the same powers as if
convened by the Security Trustee and is to be conducted in accordance with
the provisions of the Annexure, in which event all references in this Deed
and the Annexure to the Security Trustee in relation to the requirements
of meetings of Voting Secured Creditors will be read and construed,
mutatis mutandis, as references to the Manager.

9. Enforcement
9.1 Power to Deal with and Protection of the Charged Property
If the Charge crystallises and becomes fixed pursuant to the provisions of
this Deed:
(a) (Power to deal with the Charged Property ceases): the Trustee's
power to deal with the Charged Property will, subject to clauses 4.5
and 4.6, immediately cease; and
(b) (Protection of Charged Property): the Security Trustee will have the
right either in its own name or in the name of the Trustee to
immediately seek and obtain appropriate relief in relation to that
part of the Charged Property affected or threatened by the relevant
Event of Default.
9.2 Restrictions on Power to Enforce
If an Event of Default occurs, the Security Trustee must not declare the
Secured Moneys immediately due and payable under clause 9.6, appoint a
Receiver under clause 10 or, subject to the operation of clauses 4.4 to
4.7 (inclusive), otherwise enforce the Charge unless:
(a) (Voting Secured Creditors authorise action): the Voting Secured
Creditors have passed an Extraordinary Resolution under or referred
to in clause 8.2 or at a meeting convened pursuant to clause 8.6 or
pursuant to clause 2 of the Annexure; or
(b) (Delay would be prejudicial): in the opinion of the Security
Trustee, the delay required to obtain the directions of the Voting
Secured Creditors in accordance with clause 8.2 would be prejudicial
to the interests of the Secured Creditors as a class (in which case
the Security Trustee must take those actions).
9.3 No Obligation to Enforce
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, subject to clauses 8.1, 9.2
and 15.3, pending the receipt of directions from the Voting Secured
Creditors as contemplated by clauses 8.2, 8.3 and 8.4, the Security
Trustee is not bound to take any action under this Deed or give any
consent or waiver or make any determination under this Deed (including,
without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to appoint any Receiver,
to declare the Charge enforceable or the Secured Moneys immediately due
and payable or to take any other proceedings). Nothing in this clause
affects the operation of clause 4.4 upon the occurrence of an Event of
Default or the Charge becoming enforceable prior to the Security Trustee
receiving directions from the Voting Secured Creditors.
9.4 Limitation on Rights of Secured Creditors
Subject to clause 8.4:
(a) (Powers Exercisable by Security Trustee only): the powers, rights
and remedies conferred on the Security Trustee by this Deed are
exercisable by the Security Trustee only, and no Secured Creditor is
entitled to exercise the same or any of them; and
(b) (Secured Creditors cannot enforce): without limiting the generality
of the foregoing, no Secured Creditor is entitled to enforce the
Charge or the provisions of this Deed exercisable by the Security
Trustee or to appoint a Receiver to any of the Charged Property or
otherwise to exercise any power conferred by the terms of any
applicable law on chargees.
9.5 Immaterial Waivers
The Security Trustee may, on such terms and conditions as it may deem
expedient, without the consent of the Secured Creditors, and without
prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent breach:
(a) (Waiver of Breaches): agree to any waiver or authorisation of any
breach or proposed breach of any of the terms and conditions of the
Transaction Documents ; and
(b) (Waiver of Events of Default): determine that any event that would
otherwise be an Event of Default will not be treated as an Event of
Default for the purpose of this Deed,
which is not, in the opinion of the Security Trustee, materially
prejudicial to the interests of the Secured Creditors as a class. No such
waiver, authorisation or determination may be made in contravention of any
prior directions contained in an Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting
Secured Creditors. Any such waiver, authorisation or determination will,
if the Security Trustee so requires, be notified to the Secured Creditors
by the Manager as soon as practicable after it is made in accordance with
this Deed.
9.6 Acceleration of Secured Moneys following Event of Default
If any Event of Default occurs, at any time thereafter if the Event of
Default is continuing, the Security Trustee may by written notice to the
Trustee and the Manager, declare in accordance with this Deed the Secured
Moneys to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the Secured Moneys
will immediately become due and payable (subject to the limitation
contained in clause 29 of the Series Supplement or any equivalent
limitation in relation to the relevant Secured Moneys).

satisfied that its liability under that indemnity is limited so as not to
exceed the Security Trustee's right of indemnity out of the Security Trust
Fund. Any moneys payable by the Security Trustee under such an indemnity
must be paid out of the Charged Property in accordance with this Deed and
will form part of the Secured Moneys.

Notwithstanding any principle or presumption of law to the contrary or any
direction given at the time of it being received by the Security Trustee
or the Receiver, the Security Trustee and the Receiver each has, subject

distributed to the Class A-1 Noteholders in accordance with clause
13.1(j)(i) and clause 13.1(k), the Security Trustee will convert the
amount of such Secured Moneys from US dollars to Australian dollars
at the exchange rate below which produces the lowest amount in
Australian dollars:
(i) the A$ Exchange Rate; or
(ii) the spot exchange rate as advised to the Security Trustee by
the Manager between US dollars and Australian dollars used for
the calculation of any amounts payable on the occurrence of an
"Early Termination Date" (if any) under the Class A-1 Currency
Swaps (or, if different, the average of such rates).
(b) (Payments in US$): All actual payments to the Class A-1 Noteholders
by the Security Trustee pursuant to this Deed must be made in US
dollars. The Security Trustee must convert (and pay to the Class A-1
Noteholders) all Australian dollar amounts payable to the Class A-1
Noteholders under clauses 13.1(f), (g), (j) and (k) (and, if
applicable, clause 13.1(l)) at the rate that it is able to acquire
US dollars in the Australian spot foreign exchange market. It need
only apply so many Australian dollars for this purpose as is
sufficient to acquire the necessary US dollars, when combined with
the US dollars (if any) from the application of clause 13.1(e), as
equals the Secured Moneys (denominated in US dollars) owing in
respect of the Class A-1 Notes. If, after the application of this
clause 13.5(b), there is any surplus of Australian dollars these are
to be applied in accordance with clause 13.1(j) to the other Secured
Creditors referred to therein (if necessary) and clauses 13.1(m)-(p)
(as applicable);
(c) (Voting Entitlements): In calculating the Secured Moneys in respect
of the Class A-1 Notes for the purposes of the definitions of
"Voting Entitlements" and "Voting Secured Creditors" and the Secured
Moneys for the Annexure, such Secured Moneys will be converted to
Australian dollars from US dollars in accordance with clause
13.5(a).
13.6 Application of Class A-1 Currency Swap Termination Proceeds
Any Class A-1 Currency Swap Termination Proceeds received by the Security
Trustee must be retained by the Security Trustee in US dollars and must be
invested by it in a US dollar interest bearing account with a bank or
other financial institution selected by it and must be applied, if there
are any Secured Moneys owing in respect of the Class A-1 Notes, first in
accordance with clause 13.1(e). If there are no such Secured Moneys owing
in respect of the Class A-1 Notes, or only part of the Class A-1 Swap
Termination Proceeds are sufficient to pay all Secured Moneys (denominated
in US dollars) owing in respect of the Class A-1 Notes, the balance may be
converted to Australian dollars for application in accordance with clause
13.1.
13.7 Satisfaction of Debts
Each Secured Creditor will accept the distribution of money to it under
clause 13.1 in full and final satisfaction of all Secured Moneys owing to
it and any debt represented by any shortfall after any final distribution
under clause 13.1 will thereupon be extinguished.

At any such meeting, any 2 or more persons present in person holding, or

business and no business (other than the choosing of a chairman) is to be
transacted at any meeting unless the requisite quorum is present at the
commencement of business.
7. Adjournment
(a) (Adjournment): If within 15 minutes from the time appointed for any
such meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting must, if convened
upon the requisition of Voting Secured Creditors, be dissolved. In
any other case it must stand adjourned (unless the Security Trustee
agrees that it be dissolved) for such period, not being less than 7

the Security Trustee or by one or more persons holding, or being
Representatives holding or representing between them, in aggregate a
number of votes which is not less than 2% of the aggregate number of
votes comprised in all Voting Entitlements at the time, a
declaration by the chairman that a resolution has been carried by a
particular majority or lost or not carried by any particular
majority will be conclusive evidence of the fact without proof of
the number or proportion of the votes recorded in favour of or
against such resolution.
(c) (Polls): If at any meeting a poll is so demanded, it must be taken
in such manner and (subject to the provisions of this Annexure)
either at once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs
and the result of such poll will be deemed to be the resolution of
the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the
taking of the poll. The demand for a poll must not prevent the
continuance of the meeting for the transaction of any business other
than the question on which the poll has been demanded. Any poll
demanded at any meeting on the election of a chairman or on any
question of adjournment must be taken at the meeting without
adjournment.
(d) (Voting by Secured Creditors):

person or by proxy and has the right to vote has the number of
votes comprised in their Voting Entitlement.

than one vote need not use or cast all of the votes to which he or
she is entitled in the same way.

for all purposes.

unsound mind or in respect of whom an order has been made by any
court having jurisdiction in respect of mental health may vote
whether on a show of hands or on a poll by his committee curator
xxxxx or other person in the nature of a committee curator xxxxx
appointed by such court.
(h) (Objection to voter's qualification): No objection is to be raised
as to the qualification of any voter except at the meeting or
adjourned meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered
and every vote not disallowed at such meeting will be valid for all
purposes. Any such objection made in due time will be referred to
the chairman of the meeting and his decision will be final and
conclusive.
9. Right to attend and speak

respective representatives) and their respective financial and legal
advisers will be entitled to attend and speak at any meeting of Voting
Secured Creditors. No person will otherwise be entitled to attend or vote

hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned
meeting at which the named proxy proposes to vote and in default,

chairman of the meeting decides otherwise before such meeting or
adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A notarially certified copy
of proof (if applicable) of due execution must if required by the
Security Trustee be produced by the proxy at the meeting or
adjourned meeting. The Security Trustee will be under no obligation
to investigate or be concerned with the validity of, or the
authority of, the proxy named in any such appointment. The proxy
named in any appointment of proxy need not be a Voting Secured
Creditor.
(b) (Proxy valid): Any vote given in accordance with the terms of an
appointment of proxy conforming with clause 10(a) will be valid
notwithstanding the previous revocation or amendment of the
appointment of proxy or of any of the Voting Secured Creditor's
instructions pursuant to which it was executed, provided that no
intimation in writing of such revocation or amendment has been
received by the Security Trustee at its registered office or by the
chairman of the meeting in each case not less than 24 hours before
the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the
appointment of proxy is used.

Voting Secured Creditor being a body corporate to act for it at any

an Extraordinary Resolution which by its terms, in the opinion of
the Security Trustee, affects the Standby Redraw Facility Provider,
the Liquidity Facility Provider, a Hedge Provider and/or the Sellers
(each in its capacity as a Secured Creditor) (a "Relevant Secured
Creditor") only, or in a manner different to the rights of Secured
Creditors generally, or is materially prejudicial to the interests
of a Relevant Secured Creditor will not be effective unless the
Relevant Secured Creditor consents in writing to the Extraordinary
Resolution.
15. Minutes and records
Minutes of all resolutions and proceedings at every meeting must be made
and duly entered in the books to be provided for that purpose by the
Security Trustee. Any such minutes if purporting to be signed by the
chairman of the meeting at which such resolutions were passed or
proceedings transacted or by the chairman of the next succeeding meeting
(if any) of Voting Secured Creditors, are conclusive evidence of the
matters stated in them. Until the contrary is provided, every such meeting
in respect of the proceedings of which minutes have been made and signed
are deemed to have been duly convened and held and all resolutions passed
and proceedings conducted at such meetings are deemed to have been duly
passed and conducted.
16. Written resolutions
Notwithstanding the preceding provisions of this Annexure, a resolution of
all the Voting Secured Creditors or a class of Voting Secured Creditors
(including an Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Secured Creditors or
a class of Voting Secured Creditors) may be
passed, without any meeting or previous notice being required, by an
instrument or notes in writing which have:
(a) in the case of a resolution (including an Extraordinary Resolution)
of all the Voting Secured Creditors, been signed by all the Voting
Secured Creditors and, in the case of a resolution (including an
Extraordinary Resolution) of a class of Voting Secured Creditors,
been signed by all the Voting Secured Creditors in the class; and
(b) any such instrument shall be effective upon presentation to the
Security Trustee for entry in the records referred to in clause 15.
17. Invalid resolutions
Any resolution of the Voting Secured Creditors which purports to direct
the Security Trustee or a Receiver to take any action which would hinder
the performance of any party under the Master Trust Deed or a Transaction
Document (except to the extent that enforcement action is taken against
the Trustee or in respect of the Charged Property) is invalid.
18. Further procedures for meetings
Subject to all other provisions of the Security Trust Deed, the Security
Trustee may without the consent of the Voting Secured Creditors prescribe
such further regulations regarding the holding of meetings of the Voting
Secured Creditors and attendance and voting at such meetings as the
Security Trustee may in its sole discretion determine including
particularly (but without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing)
such regulations and requirements as the Security Trustee thinks
reasonable:
(a) (Regarding entitlement to vote): so as to satisfy itself that
persons who purport to attend or vote at any meeting of Voting
Secured Creditors are entitled to do so in accordance with this
Annexure and the other provisions of the Security Trust Deed; and
(b) (Regarding Representatives): as to the form of appointment of a
Representative.
19. Class of secured creditors
The provisions of this Annexure apply, mutatis mutandis, to a meeting of
any class of Voting Secured Creditors under this Annexure or the Security
Trust Deed. If the Class A-1 Noteholders become entitled to attend a
meeting of Voting Secured Creditors or to have their own separate meeting,
the evidence of the entitlement of such Class A-1 Noteholders to attend
such meeting and to vote thereat, and any other relevant matters, will be
determined in accordance with the Class A-1 Note Trust Deed and the Agency
Agreement, with such amendments as determined by the Security Trustee.
