5 Limitations to Transition Services

5.1	Acknowledgment by the Buyer
	The Buyer agrees that the limitations in this clause 5 apply with respect to CHH’s provision or procurement of the provision of the Transition Services.

5.2 Manner of performance

(1) CHH will use reasonable endeavours to perform or have performed the Transition Services materially:

(a)	consistent with practices in effect with respect to the provision of like services by or to the Business at the time of Completion, including with respect to the type, quality and timeliness of such Transition Services; and
(b)	to the equivalent standard of equivalent services provided to other divisions of CHH.

(2) In carrying out any of the Transition Services which require CHH to negotiate price with a third party on the Buyer’s behalf:

(a)	where CHH also purchases goods or services for itself from the same supplier, CHH will use its reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Buyer receives the same pricing, adjusted for any factors specific to the Whakatane Mill, including, but not limited to, location and freight, as that received by CHH; and
(b)	where CHH does not purchase goods or services for itself from the same supplier, CHH will use its reasonable endeavours to promote the Buyer’s commercial interests and negotiate pricing, adjusted for any factors specific to the Whakatane Mill, including, but not limited to, location and freight, that CHH would expect to receive if CHH were procuring the same goods or services for itself.

CHH will not act in a manner which favours CHH’s procurement strategy ahead of that of the Buyer.

(3) The Buyer may specify preferred suppliers for supplying all or any goods or services contemplated in clause 5.2(2). Where the Buyer has specified a preferred supplier of such goods or services, CHH will seek to procure the relevant goods or services from the preferred supplier in preference to other suppliers.

5.3 Third party assets

(1) The Buyer acknowledges that the provision of Transition Services may require that it has access to software licensed by, or equipment leased by, CHH or a Related Company of CHH from a third party.

5

(2)	Subject to clause 5.3(3), CHH shall grant or shall procure that a Related Company of CHH will grant to the Buyer a sub-licence or sub-lease, as applicable, under rights CHH may have, if any, in such third party software or equipment, but only to the extent necessary to effect the provision of Transition Services and only to the extent that CHH or its Related Company has the right to grant such sub-license or sub-lease, provided that CHH shall not be responsible for any failure of or defects in such third party software or equipment.
(3)	To the extent that CHH or its Related Company requires the consent of the counterparty to any licence or lease in order to grant to the Buyer a sub-licence or sub-lease, and that consent is not obtained before Completion, CHH or its Related Company will continue to use reasonable endeavours to obtain such consent. CHH will have no obligation under this agreement to provide the relevant Transition Services for which the sub-license or sub-lease is required unless and until that consent is obtained.
(4)	The Buyer must comply with any disclosed terms and conditions of any third party licences or leases sub-licensed or sub-leased to it by CHH pursuant to clause 5.3(2) and the Buyer shall indemnify CHH against all loss or damage incurred or suffered by CHH or any of its Related Companies arising out of a breach by the Buyer of its obligations under this clause or any use by the Buyer of any software or equipment where CHH is not able to grant or procure the grant of a sub-licence or sub-lease and this has been notified by CHH to the Buyer in writing.

	A party to this agreement must not, without the written consent of the other party, make any offer of employment, or assist any other person to make an offer of employment, to employees of the other party during the Term. For one year after the termination of this agreement, a party to this agreement, either itself or through a third party, must not solicit the services of any employee of the other party, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to where an employee of the other party responds to a general solicitation of employment through publication of vacant positions or a third party agent not directed at employees of the other party.
8.3	CHH employees at Whakatane Mill
	To enable CHH to carry out the IT Transition Services in Schedule 2, CHH will locate certain staff at the Whakatane Mill as CHH deems reasonably necessary. The Buyer will provide workspace as is reasonably necessary, and at no cost to CHH, to accommodate any such CHH staff which are permanently or temporarily located at the Whakatane Mill. As at the

8

commencement of this agreement, there will be 4 permanent CHH staff members located at the Whakatane Mill. CHH will not increase the number of permanent staff members located at the Whakatane Mill without the consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

8.4	Buyer employee at CHH site
	The Buyer employs 1 sales employee in Auckland. CHH will provide workspace as is reasonably necessary, at no cost to the Buyer, to accommodate that same sales employee of the Buyer, or a replacement employee as the Buyer gives notice of to CHH. As at the commencement of this agreement, the Buyer’s sales employee will be located at CHH’s Penrose Mill site. CHH will be entitled on notice to the Buyer to relocate such sales employee to another workspace within Auckland.
8.5	Secondment of Australian Staff
(1)	As at Completion, a Related Company of CHH employed two persons in Australia whose primary function is technical, marketing and customer services for the Whakatane Mill (Australian Staff). The parties wish to have another subsidiary of the Buyer become the employer of the Australian Staff shortly after Completion. Until such time as the employer of the Australian Staff has changed, CHH will procure the current employer of the Australian Staff to second the Australian Staff to the Buyer for the purpose of performing the same duties as carried on by them as at Completion.
(2)	CHH will provide workspace as is reasonably necessary, at no cost to the Buyer, to accommodate the Australian Staff. The Buyer will reimburse CHH (and each of its Related Companies) for all employment related costs of the Australian Staff incurred by CHH or its Related Companies in respect of their secondment to the Buyer. Reimbursement by the Buyer of such costs will be made in the manner specified in clause 4(2) of this Agreement.
8.6	Intellectual Property
	All right, title and interest in any intellectual property (including copyright, patent or design rights) discovered, invented, developed, modified or improved by any employee of CHH providing the Transition Services, either on his own or jointly with others, will be the sole and exclusive property of CHH, provided that where any intellectual property (including copyright, patent or design rights) is discovered, invented, developed, modified or improved directly involving assets owned by the Buyer, such intellectual property shall be jointly owned by CHH and the Buyer, in which case CHH and the Buyer each grant the other a royalty-free, transferable license in perpetuity to use such intellectual property as each sees fits.
9	Prudential Requirements and Debtor Insurance
(1)	Electricity is supplied to the Whakatane Mill, and certain other CHH sites, under the terms of the electricity spot market services agreement dated 18 August 2008 between CHH and TrustPower Limited (TrustPower Agreement). The remainder of CHH sites receive electricity under another electricity spot market services agreement between CHH and a third party (Other Spot Agreement). CHH offsets its prudential requirements under the TrustPower Agreement with CHH’s electricity generation at its Kinleith mill. Accordingly, there is no prudential payment made by CHH to TrustPower Limited under the TrustPower Agreement. CHH is required to pay a fee under the Other Spot Agreement in order to avoid the requirement to post prudential. This fee is then internally on-charged to all the Carter Holt Harvey group sites on the basis of their electricity consumption.
(2)	CHH and the Buyer intend that after Completion, the Buyer will enter into a new agreement with TrustPower on substantially the same terms and conditions as the TrustPower Agreement (Replacement Agreement).

9

(3) If TrustPower requires in the terms of the Replacement Agreement that the Buyer meet prudential requirements by providing acceptable security to TrustPower(Prudential Requirements),CHH will meet those Prudential Requirements on the Buyer’s behalf, provided that:

(a)	CHH can meet the Prudential Requirements on the same terms and conditions and in the same manner as CHH meets the prudential requirements under the TrustPower Agreement as at the date of this Agreement; and
(b)	TrustPower is agreeable to CHH meeting the Prudential Requirements on the Buyer’s behalf.

(4)	On receipt of a valid tax invoice, the Buyer shall pay CHH or its agent (as notified to the Buyer from time to time) a fee for meeting the Prudential Requirements. Such fee will be calculated in the same manner as the fees paid by the other Carter Holt Harvey group sites whose prudential requirements are covered by CHH (or one of its Related Companies) in the same manner (in accordance with clause 9(1)).
(5)	If at any time during the Term, the provisos in clauses 9(3)(a) and 9(3)(b) cease to be true, or CHH terminates this agreement in respect of the Prudential Requirements under clause 14.5(1)(b), CHH may cease immediately to meet the Prudential Requirements on behalf of the Buyer and the Buyer shall be responsible to meet such Prudential Requirements itself. CHH shall not be liable to the Buyer for any loss, damage, liability, cost or expense incurred or suffered by it which arises from such action or if the Buyer is unable to meet the Prudential Requirements subsequently set by TrustPower Limited.
(6)	As at the date of this agreement, the Pulp and Paper division of CHH holds an insurance policy in relation to payment default by its debtors(Debtor Insurance).At the Buyer’s request and provided that CHH is providing the Buyer with Credit Control Transition Services as set out in Schedule 1, CHH will use its reasonable endeavours to extend the Debtor Insurance to cover the Buyer in relation to the Business as an insured party. If CHH is able to extend the Debtor Insurance to cover the Buyer, then the Buyer:

(a)	must comply with the obligations of an insured party under the policy for the Debtor Insurance;
(b)	must not take any action or omit to anything which would be likely to affect CHH’s ability to maintain its existing Debtor Insurance or obtain replacement debtor insurance on substantially similar terms, provided that the Buyer making claims against the Debtor Insurance will not, by itself, constitute a breach of this subclause;
(c)	will pay on a monthly basis to CHH a portion of the premium payable by CHH for the Debtor Insurance. Such portion of the premium will be calculated in the same manner as the portions paid by the other CHH Pulp and Paper division sites who take the benefit of the Debtor Insurance, provided that if as a result of extending the Debtor Insurance to cover the Buyer, the insurer levies a higher premium than the premium applied immediately prior to extending the Debtor Insurance, then the Buyer will also pay the difference between the two premiums.

(7)	The Buyer may at any time give notice to CHH that the Buyer no longer wishes to be covered by the Debtor Insurance provided that the Buyer must pay any fees or costs levied by the insurer in order to vary the Debtor Insurance policy so as to exclude the Buyer.
10	Australian exports
10.1	Application for ABN number
	The Buyer will, as soon as practicable after Completion, obtain an Australian Business Number(ABN)to enable it to export its products to customers in Australia on DDU terms. The Buyer will advise CHH once it has obtained an ABN for such purpose.

10

10.2	Resale arrangements
	Pending issue to the Buyer of an ABN as referred to in clause 10.1, CHH will, on request from the Buyer, purchase product manufactured by the Buyer intended to be exported to Australia (provided that there is a nominated purchaser of those products from CHH). CHH will comply with all reasonable directions of the Buyer for purposes of this clause provided that CHH will not be obliged to:

(a)	take any action in breach of any applicable Law; or
(b)	incur any cost or liability unless the Buyer has agreed to fully reimburse CHH for any such cost or liability to the reasonable satisfaction of CHH.

	CHH will cease to have any further obligations under this clause 10 upon the earlier of the Buyer obtaining an ABN as referred to in clause 10.1 and the date which is two months after the date of Completion.

IT Services

CHH Infotech provides a first-line support service across all IT and Telecoms systems, providing users with a consistent, Service Level Agreement-based problem and incident management approach independent of the group providing next line support.

The Service Desk is manned currently 0700-1900 on business days but an on-call representative answers the same phone number at all other times. Outside working hours on-call representatives of all the infrastructure and application support teams support the Service Desk team. An on-call Operations Manager is available to escalate if a Service Level Agreement breach seems likely or a situation not envisaged by the Service Level Agreement occurs.

CHH Infotech provides a team of Service Delivery Managers who aim to be the customer champion within the Infotech organisation. The Service Delivery Manager for Whakatane Mill was formerly an employee of the Pulp & Paper business in the Central North Island. Service Delivery Managers form part of the on-call Duty Operations Managers team.

First Level and Second Level Support is provided, in general, by CHH Infotech or PPP IT with Third Level Support being provided by the various vendors. Fault or Administration Calls can be logged by email or phone, 24x7. During normal hours of operation, calls will be acknowledged within 2 hours and fixed as soon as possible using reasonable endeavours. Priority 1 or Priority 2 Calls (P1 or P2) will be responded to immediately 24x7 using reasonable endeavours to provide a solution.

CHH Infotech operates a formal IT Change Management regime aimed at minimising disruption of business due to IT change. The Change Management process is based on ITIL guidelines, full details of which are available from CHH infotech.

There is no formal Disaster Recovery (DR) for centralised shared services. There is, however, a project under way to reinstate DR for shared services and this is likely to be implemented in late 2010 and early 2011. Locally at Whakatane Mill, there are contingencies in place (or planned) for the core Mill Execution System, Elixir.

Set out below are the terms of the Service Level Agreement for the provision of IT Transition Services under this Agreement.

The systems and services set out in the tables below generally reflect the systems and services provided to the Whakatane Mill as at Completion.
