the name as described in Schedule “B”.

who have signed this Deed which are to be invested under this Deed and the Trustee may

from time to time accept further funds or otherwise for investment under this Deed.

(B) The Trustee agrees to hold the assets of the trust upon the trusts and subject to the terms and

conditions of this Deed.

1. DEFINITIONS

Unless the contrary intention appears or the context otherwise requires in this Deed and in

any instrument agreement or other document made entered or executed or issued under it,

the terms and expressions set out in Schedule “B” have the meanings described in that

Schedule.

2. INITIAL UNITS

(a) The Trustee intends on or after execution of this Deed to accept from the other

parties who have executed this Deed such sums of money as are set out opposite

their names on the page they have signed and the beneficial interest in the Trust Fund

is to be divided into units of $5000.00 each and those parties are deemed to be the

holders of their respective units and the Trustee may issue to each of those parties

who have paid the sum stated opposite their names, certificates in the form annexed

or similar form.

(b) The Trustee may accept further cash from time to time before the Commencement

Date to be held on the Trusts of this Deed and if any addition is made to the Trust

Fund under the provisions of this sub-clause an additional number of units of $5000.00

each will ipso facto be created equal to the amount of cash so paid.

© Each payment under clause 2 (b) must be accompanied by an application for the

number of units which will be created on payment and the applicant will be entered on

the register as the holder of the units created pursuant to clause 2 (b). All applications

made are to be in the form set out in the First Schedule to this Deed or similar form.

purposes of the Trust the Trustee may so inform the unit holders and after such date

no further units may be created except pursuant to and in conformity with the

provisions of this Deed.

ISSUE OF FURTHER UNITS

3.(a) If at any time and from time to time in the opinion of the Trustee it is expedient to do

so the Trustee may determine the amount of further moneys to be raised for the

purposes of this Trust ("the Additional Sum") and the following provisions have

effect;

1(i) the net value of the Trust Fund (excluding the Additional Sum) as determined by

the Trustee in accordance with Australian accounting principles is to be

ascertained;

(ii) the net value of the Trust Fund determined in accordance with clause (i) of this sub-

clause is to be divided by the number of units in issue and the quotient adjusted to

the nearest cent is the value of a unit in the Trust Fund ("New Unit Price").

(iii) the Additional Sum is to be divided by the New Unit Price and the resulting figure

adjusted to the nearest whole number is the number of additional units ("New

Units") which may be offered for subscription at the New Unit Price in accordance

with the next sub-clause of this clause.

(b) (i) New Units must (unless the holders of not less than 75% of the units issued for the

time being at a meeting of the unit holders duly called otherwise decide) be offered

by the Trustee firstly for subscription at the New Unit Price to all the unit holders in

proportion as nearly as may be to their then existing holdings of units.

(ii) That offer will be made by notice to each unit holder specifying the number of

New Units offered to that unit holder and the New Unit Price and shall carry the

right to accept the offer in respect of any smaller number of units so offered and

the New Unit Price shall carry the right to accept the offer in respect of any smaller

number of units and shall limit the time (not being less than 30 days unless the

offeree consents in writing to shorter period) within which the offer if not accepted

shall be deemed to be declined.

(iii) Any units declined or not accepted by any unit holder within such time must be

offered in the same manner and in the said proportion to those unit holders who

have accepted and thereafter units not accepted must be so offered to unit holders

until finally it appears to the Trustee that no unit holder is willing to accept any

further units. Any units so offered and which it appears to the Trustee no unit

registered holder shall be notified to the Trustee. No notice of any Trust, express,

implied or constructive, may be entered upon the Register.

DISTRIBUTION OF INCOME

10. (a) The Trustee may determine whether a receipt or gain or outgoing is to be treated as

being on account of capital or income or partly on account of one and partly on

account of the other. If the Trustee does not make a determination under this sub-

clause prior to midnight on 30 June in a financial year, the amount which under the

provisions of the Act represent the net income (within the meaning of s 95 of the

Income Tax Assessment Act, 1936 “the Act”) for that year in relation to the Trust

Fund is the income of the Trust Fund for the purposes of this deed.

(b) The unit holders (in the same proportions as they hold units in the Trust Fund as at

the end of the financial year) are presently and absolutely entitled to the net income

of the Trust Fund for that financial year.

© If in any financial year the net income of the Trust Fund within the meaning of

Section 95 of the Act exceeds the net income of the Trust Fund as determined under

clause 10(a), the excess shall, unless otherwise determined by the Trustee prior to

the end of that financial year, be held upon trust as if such excess was part of the net

income of the Trust Fund as determined under clause 10(a).

(d) The Trustee may determine that a part of the income is to be retained by the Trustee

(“Retained Moneys”). Retained Moneys must be dealt with in the same manner as

set out in clause 10(e).

(e) Net income of the Trust Fund to which a unit holder is entitled at the end of a

financial year and which has not been distributed ceases to form part of the Trust

Fund and is to be held by the Trustee as a separate fund upon trust absolutely for

the unit holder entitled (without however any entitlement to interest or earnings on

such amount and any interest or earnings form part of the Trust Fund). The Trustee

has power in respect of the assets of each separate fund to mix and invest them with

the assets of the Trust Fund for ease of administration.

(f) The Trustee may at any time make an interim distribution from the Trust Fund as an

advanced payment to the unit holders and on account of their entitlement to the net

income under clause 10(b).

(g) The Trustee may at any time distribute any part of the capital of the Trust Fund

among the unit holders in the same proportion as they hold units in the Trust Fund.

UNIT CERTIFICATES

11. (a) Each unit holder may be issued with a Certificate in the form in the second schedule

or similar form however if a Certificate is not issued this does not affect the rights of

a unit holder.

(b) Every Certificate may be signed by or on behalf of the Trustee and may specify the

name of the unit holder and the number of units to which it relates and may bear a

distinctive number or letter.

TRANSFERS OF UNITS

12.1 Every unit holder is entitled to transfer the units or any of the units for the time being

held by the holder by a transfer in writing in the form set out in the third schedule or

such other form as the Trustee may from time to time approve provided that the

transferee has in the first place been approved by the Trustee. Such approval may not

be unreasonably withheld.

12.2 Every transfer must be signed by both the transferor and the transferee and the

transferor is be deemed to remain the holder of the units the subject of the transfer

until the name of the transferee is registered in the Register as the holder of such

units.

12.3 Every instrument of transfer must be duly stamped if required by law and left with the

Trustee and must be accompanied by the Certificate.

PRE-EMPTION

12.4 (i) Despite anything appearing in clauses 12.1 to 12.3 above inclusive any units

proposed to be transferred must either be consented to in writing by all unit

holders or must first be offered to the unit holders (other than the transferor)

collectively and individually and so that they rank for acceptance pari passu in

proportion to the units held by them and so that if any unit cannot be so

apportioned such unit shall be offered to them in the order determined by lot and

the Trustee shall cause the lots to be drawn accordingly.

(ii) The person proposing to transfer any units ("the Proposing Transferor") must give

notice in writing ("Transfer Notice") to the Trustee that the Proposing Transferor

desires to transfer the same. The Transfer Notice constitutes the Trustee as agent

for the sale of the units to the other unit holders at the net value to be fixed for the

purpose by the Trustee. A Transfer Notice may include several units and in that

case operates as if it were a separate notice in respect of each. A Transfer Notice is

not revocable except with the Trustee’s written consent.

15(iii) The Trustee must then determine the net value of the Trust Fund in accordance with

Australian accounting principles. The net value of the Trust Fund so ascertained

shall be divided by the number of units issued to all unit holders and the quotient

shall be the net value of each unit.

(iv) If the Trustee shall within the space of forty-five days after being served with a

Transfer Notice arrange with the other unit holders to purchase the units ("the

Purchasing Members") and gives notice to the Proposing Transferor, the Proposing

Transferor is bound on payment of the net value to transfer the units to the

Purchasing Members.

(v) If a sale is effected between a Proposing Transferor and the Purchasing Members

the price of such unit or units must be paid by the Purchasing Members to the

Proposing Transferor within one calendar month from the date of the Trustee's

giving notice to the Proposing Transferor.

(vi) If in any case the Proposing Transferor after having become bound fails to transfer

the unit the Trustee may receive the purchase money and must then cause the name

of the Purchasing Members to be entered in the Register as the holders of the unit

and shall hold the purchase money in trust for the Proposing Transferor. The receipt

of the Trustee for the purchase money or of so much thereof as shall be payable shall

be a good discharge to the Purchasing Members and after their names have been

entered in the register in purported exercise of the Trustee’s power, the validity of

the proceedings may not be questioned by any person.

(vii) If a sale is not effected by the Trustee the Proposing Transferor may subject to

clause 12.1 transfer the unit as the Proposing Transferor sees fit however the price

must be the net value of the unit determined in accordance with sub-clause (iii) of

this clause.

TRANSMISSION OF UNITS

13. (a) In case of the death of any one of the joint unit holders of any unit, the survivor or

survivors will be the only persons recognised by the Trustee as having any title to or

interest in such units.

(b) The legal personal representative of a deceased unit holder of units (not being one of

several joint holders) shall be the only person recognised by the Trustee as having

any title to such units.

16© Any person becoming entitled to any units in consequence of the death, legal

incapacity or liquidation of a unit holder of such units upon producing evidence that

such person sustains the character in respect of which they propose to act under

this sub-clause or of their title as the Trustee thinks sufficient and in the case of a

legal personal representative of a deceased unit holder (not being one of several joint

holders) upon making a declaration in the form set out in the Fourth schedule or

similar shall, on delivering the Certificate comprising the units to the Trustee for

cancellation, be registered as the holder of those units and is entitled to a new

Certificate in their name.

14. The Trustee will recognise the unit holder or their legal personal representative as the

only persons having any right or interest in the units in respect of which the unit holder is

registered or in the Certificate representing the same. The Trustee need not, except as

ordered by a Court of competent jurisdiction, be bound to take notice of any trust or

equity affecting any unit or certificate or the rights incidental thereto and the receipt of

such unit holder or their legal personal representative for any money payable or any

property transferred to a unit holder, is sufficient discharge to the Trustee.

'''MEETINGS

'''15. (a) The Trustee may at any time convene a meeting of the unit holders and the Trustee,

at the request of the unit holders who at the date of the requisition hold between

them not less than 25% of the units, must proceed to convene a meeting of the unit

does not have a casting vote (in the event of an equality of votes) in addition to the

vote or votes to which they may be entitled as a unit holder.

first instance by a show of hands unless-

(i) it is a question which under this Deed must be decided by a specified majority of

appointment of any auditor, then the Trustee shall by notice in writing to the auditor

remove the auditor, and the Trustee may then appoint another auditor to take their

place.

© The auditor may be the auditor of the Trustee.

TRUSTEE'S REMUNERATION

17. The Trustee may be paid by way of remuneration for its services as Trustee for each

a meeting of the unit holders duly convened and of which notice has been given to

the Trustee, if such resolution is passed by a majority of unit holders present in

person or by proxy and holding between them not less than 50% of the units then

issued.

(d) Any removal and/or appointment under clause 18 may be by Deed signed by the

Trustee and by the new Trustee as appropriate and may but need not be also signed

19. (a) The Trust created by this Deed, unless previously determined under these

provisions, shall continue until the Vesting Date.

(b) If at a meeting of unit holders duly convened under any of the provisions of clause

hereby created shall be determined, the Trustee shall determine it accordingly.

20. On determination of the Trust under clause 19 the following provisions have effect -

each unit holder notice thereof and of the impending distribution.

interests of the unit holders and shall not be responsible for any loss attributed to

such postponement.

19(d) The Trustee may retain in its hands or under its control for as long as it thinks fit

such part of the Trust Fund as in its opinion may be required to meet any outgoings

investments thereof provided that any investments so retained, to the extent that they

are ultimately found not to be required, shall remain subject to the Trust for

conversion and distribution contained in sub-clause (a).

the Trustee to re-purchase all or any of the units they hold in their name and such

holder must at the same time deliver to the Trustee the relevant Certificate together

(b) If the Trustee approves of the re-purchase (and it may in its absolute discretion

decline to do so) the following clauses (b) to (h) inclusive apply. The Trustee shall

cause a valuation to be made of the net asset value of the Trust Fund according to

Australian Accounting principles.

divided by the number of units issued to all unit holders and the quotient shall be the

re-purchase price for each unit however if the investments of the Trust Fund sold by

the Trustee pursuant to sub-clause (e) of this clause realise less than the value placed

on such investments under the provisions of sub-clause (b) of this clause, then the

amount realised by the sale of such investments shall be substituted for the value of

the re-purchase price of each unit under the provisions of this sub-clause.

(d) Upon the value of each unit for the purposes of re-purchase being known, the

Trustee shall notify the unit holders who lodged the re-purchase request.

(e) If in the opinion of the Trustee the circumstances so warrant and the Trustee can so

arrange, the Trustee may borrow monies in order that cash shall be available in the

Trust Fund to make payments required under this clause and otherwise the Trustee

shall realise such investments as shall be necessary to re-purchase the unit or units.

(f) Such monies shall be used by the Trustee in satisfaction of the re-purchase and on

such payment being made the units re-purchased shall be cancelled and shall not be

re-issued and appropriate entries must be made in the Register.

(g) The costs of any valuation of the investments of the Trust Fund made pursuant to

this clause shall be paid out of the Trust Fund however all other expenses of a re-

purchase of units including stamp duty shall be paid by the unit holder making the

request.

20(h) Despite any other provision of this Deed, the Trustee shall not re-purchase the units

if any one or more unit holder or holders agrees to purchase the units at the value

determined as above. Such units shall be offered to the unit holders as if the re-

purchase notice were a Transfer Notice and the provisions of clause 12 hereof shall

apply in the like manner as if the re-purchase notice was a Transfer Notice.

the Trust Fund made pursuant to this clause shall be paid out of the Trust Fund.

have been duly given if it is in writing and either delivered or sent by post in a

prepaid envelope addressed, if to the unit holder, to their address appearing in the

register, or if to the Trustee addressed to the address last notified for such purpose

and shall be deemed to be served on the second day following that on which the

effective service on the other joint unit holders.
