CONDITIONS OF GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY ------------------------------------- 2. GUARANTEE The Guarantor guarantees to Westpac that the Customer will: (a) pay to Westpac on time all the Guaranteed Money, and (b) perform the Guaranteed Obligations. If the Customer does not pay an amount of the Guaranteed Money when it is due, Westpac may demand that the Guarantor pay that amount. The Guarantor must then immediately pay that amount to Westpac. Westpac can make any number of demands and demand can be made: (c) for all or part of the Guaranteed Money; and (d) even if Westpac does not take action to recover the Guaranteed Money from the Customer. 3. EXTENT OF GUARANTEE This Agreement is a guarantee for the full amount of the Guaranteed Money and is a principal obligation and shall not be treated as ancillary or collateral to any other right or obligation. 4. CONTINUING GUARANTEE The Guarantor's obligations under this Agreement are continuing. Even though Westpac receives payments from or makes arrangements with the Customer or anyone else, the Guarantor is still liable for the Guaranteed Money and the Guaranteed Obligations now and in the future. The guarantee hereunder is a guarantee of payment, and not merely of collectibility, and may be enforced against any Guarantor without first proceeding against the Customer or any collateral for or other guarantees of the Guaranteed Obligations. 5. INSOLVENCY If: (a) the Customer or anyone goes into Administration, and (b) in the Administration, Westpac makes a claim which in any way relates to any of the Guaranteed Money or other money owed to Westpac by the Customer, then if Westpac receives money as a result of making such a claim or for any other reason, it may set that money aside. Westpac need not use the money set aside to pay the Guaranteed Money until it has received enough in respect of the Guaranteed Money (including the amount set aside) to pay all of the Guaranteed Money. Until that happens, the Guarantor is fully liable for the Guaranteed Money, as if Westpac had not received the money set aside. Until the Guaranteed Money has been irrevocably paid and discharged in full, the Guarantor shall not be entitled either directly or indirectly to prove in any Administration of the Customer or claim or receive any benefit of any such Administration. 6. VARIATION OF ARRANGEMENTS WITH CUSTOMER This Agreement applies automatically to all dealings between Westpac and the Customer, whether or not those dealings increase the Guarantor's liability and whether or not Westpac notifies, or obtains the consent of, the Guarantor including: (a) a change in the Guaranteed Obligations or Guaranteed Moneys, or (b) new or replacement obligations. 7. UNCONDITIONAL OBLIGATION The Guarantor's liability under this Agreement is unconditional. It is not affected by anything which might release the Guarantor from or limit all or part of its obligations, including if: (a) Westpac does not exercise any of its Security or rights against the Customer or anyone, (b) Westpac makes any arrangement, transaction or compromise with the Customer or anyone, including one which varies, takes away or limits its Security or rights or its freedom to exercise them, (c) Westpac gives the Customer or anyone a full or partial discharge or release or time to pay or any other concession, (d) this or any document or Security is temporarily or permanently unenforceable, is not taken by Westpac, is lost, is not signed by anyone or is not binding on anyone intended to give a Guarantee or Security, (e) there is a change in the nature or constitution of the Customer or anyone including its members, (f) that or any other Guarantor, the Customer or anyone dies, becomes insolvent or incapacitated or goes into some form of Administration, or (g) the Customer or anyone has any claim against Westpac. 8. REFUND OF PAYMENTS For some reason (for example, a law about Administration or directors' duties) Westpac may have to refund or give up any money which the Customer or anyone else has paid to it, or which it recovers in any way. If that happens the Guarantor owes Westpac all the money that it would have owed if the amount refunded or given up had never been paid to or received by Westpac. The Guarantor will do everything it can to restore to Westpac any rights against the Guarantor or its property which Westpac had before it received the money which it later had to refund or give up. 9. INDEMNITY If for any reason (for example, lack of capacity or authority, Administration, illegality or inadequate or improper execution or stamping): (a) Westpac has no legal right to recover an amount of the Guaranteed Money from the Customer or enforce the Guaranteed Obligations, or (b) the Customer is not bound by obligations that would otherwise have been Guaranteed Obligations or owe an amount that would otherwise have been included in the Guaranteed Money, the amount will be taken to be part of the Guaranteed Money, and the Guarantor will pay it to Westpac whenever Westpac demands, and the obligations will be taken to be part of the Guaranteed Obligations. This applies even if Westpac knew or should have known of the problem, and even if, because of the problem, the Customer could never have been required to pay Westpac the amount. This is a principal and independent obligation. 10. OTHER SECURITY Any other Security held by Westpac for all or part of the Guaranteed Money or the Guaranteed Obligations is independent of this Agreement. Nothing affecting any Security will affect the Guarantor's liability under this Agreement. Westpac can enforce this Agreement and any Security in any order it wishes, or can choose not to enforce any Security at all. Until the Guaranteed Money is paid in full, the Guarantor cannot claim the benefit of, and has no right to, the Security held by Westpac.

(a) (OBLIGATIONS UNDER TRANSACTION DOCUMENTS) Any Relevant Company fails to do any of the following (to the extent applicable to it): (i) pay principal under a Bank Document or any interest or other amount under a Bank Document on the due date; (ii) comply with any of its financial undertakings in clauses 122 (Negative Pledges) and 123 (Financial Ratio Covenants); or (iii) comply with any other obligation in the Bank Documents and, if that failure can be remedied within 30 days of written notice from Westpac, it does not remedy that failure within 30 days of written notice from Westpac of that failure. (b) (MISREPRESENTATION) A representation or statement by or on behalf of a Relevant Company in a Bank Document, or in a document provided under it, is misleading in a material respect. (c) (CROSS DEFAULT) Finance Debt of a Relevant Company totalling at least $50,000.00 or an equivalent sum in any currency: (i) is not paid when due (or within an applicable grace period) except where it is being contested in good faith; or (ii) becomes due and payable before its stated maturity, except as a result of an exercise of a prepayment right in the absence of default; or (iii) an obligation to provide finance to a Relevant Company totalling at least that amount is terminated except as a result of voluntary termination in the absence of default, or an event of default as defined in any other Bank Document occurs. (d) (WINDING UP) An application or order is made, or a resolution is passed or proposed in a notice of meeting, for: (i) the winding up, dissolution, official management or administration of a Relevant Company or any analogous process; or (ii) an arrangement compromise or composition with its creditors or a class of them, or (iii) an application is made for any of the above except one which is frivolous and vexatious. (e) (ENFORCEMENT AGAINST ASSETS) A receiver, receiver and manager, administrator or similar officer is appointed over a Relevant Company or a material asset or any material portion of its assets. A Security Interest is enforced, or distress or other execution levied, against a material asset or any material portion of the assets of a Relevant Company. (f) (REDUCTION OF CAPITAL) A Guarantor or Customer reduces its capital, cancels its uncalled capital or buys back its shares to an extent which is likely to cause a breach of the financial undertakings in clause 12. (g) (INSOLVENCY) A Relevant Company is insolvent or is deemed or presumed insolvent under any applicable law. A Relevant Company ceases or threatens to cease carrying on its business or paying its debts. A Relevant Company disposes or threatens to dispose of a substantial part of its assets. (h) (BANK DOCUMENTS) All or a material part of a Bank Document is for any reason: (i) terminated or of no force or limited force; or (ii) terminable at the option of the Relevant Company, except as expressly provided under that Bank Document. (iii) A Relevant Company alleges that it is so. (i) (INVESTIGATION) An investigator or any other form of enquiry is instituted under the Corporations Law or similar legislation into the affairs of a Relevant Company which in the reasonable opinion of Westpac is likely to have a Material Adverse Effect. (j) (REVOCATION OF AUTHORISATION) An Authorisation which is material to the business of a Guarantor or to the performance by the Relevant Companies of the Bank Documents or their validity or enforceability ceases to have effect and is not replaced by another Authorisation acceptable to Westpac. (k) (MATERIAL ADVERSE CHANGE) There are any other circumstances including a material adverse change to the business assets or financial condition of CFI or the Relevant Companies taken as a whole which may in the opinion of Westpac have a Material Adverse Effect. (l) (CONTROL) Any Relevant Company or its holding company becomes controlled by another person or there is a substantial change in the control of CFI or SIM. (m) (FUNDING APPLIED FOR ANY OTHER PURPOSE) Funding by Westpac to any Relevant Company is applied for any purpose other than the purpose it was provided for. (n) (PRIOR INTEREST NOT DISCLOSED) A Relevant Company did not disclose to Westpac in writing, before or at the time this Agreement was executed, the fact that a Security Interest, trust, option or other third party right or interest affects its property, assets and rights the subject of a Security. (o) (CHANGE IN CONSTITUENT DOCUMENTS) Any Relevant Company alters its Memorandum or Articles of Association or other constituent documents in any material way without the consent of Westpac. (p) (COMPULSORY ACQUISITION): (i) All or any material part of any Relevant Company's property the subject of a Security is compulsorily acquired by or by order of any Governmental Agency or under any law and the amount of compensation received or to be received by that Relevant Company in respect of that acquisition is, in the opinion of Westpac, substantially less than the value of the property acquired or that amount is not dealt with in accordance with this Agreement; (ii) Any Governmental Agency orders the sale, vesting or divesting of all or any material part of a Relevant Company's property the subject of a Security and the amount of any compensation received or to be received by that Relevant Company in respect of that sale, vesting or divesting is, in the opinion of Westpac, substantially less that the value of the property sold, vested or divested or that amount is not dealt with in accordance with this Agreement; or (iii) Any Governmental Agency takes any step for the purposes of any of the above, the result of which (whether individually or cumulatively) has a Material Adverse Effect). Nothing in paragraph (d) or (f) is an Event of Default if done for the purpose of solvent reorganisation previously approved by Westpac. 14. WESTPAC'S REMEDIES AND POWERS 14.1 EVENT OF DEFAULT In addition to any other rights provided by law or any Bank Document at any time after an Event of Default (whether or not it is continuing) Westpac may do either or both of the following: (a) terminate any facility provided under any Bank Document; and (b) by written notice require the Customer to repay all amounts lent or provided to it under any Bank Document (subject to the provisions of the Bank Document), and all other amounts actually or contingently outstanding by it under this Agreement or any Bank Document, and the respective Customer must pay them immediately. (c) by written notice require the Guarantor to pay all the amounts Guaranteed by it under this Agreement or any Bank Document (whether or not contingently due), and the respective Guarantor must pay them immediately. If an amount is paid to Westpac to cover an amount contingently owing, Westpac will hold that amount in an interest bearing account until the amount becomes actually owing or ceases to be contingently owing. Westpac will then apply the amount in the account (including interest) in payment of the amount actually owing and return the balance to the relevant Guarantor. 14.2 NO WAIVER No failure to exercise a right or power, and no delay in exercising a right or power, operates as a waiver. Waivers must be in writing. GENERAL PROVISIONS ------------------ 15. PAYMENTS 15.1 PAYMENTS The Guarantor will make all payments under this Agreement when Westpac demands them and without deducting any amounts the Guarantor may claim from Westpac. Payments must be in cleared funds and free of any set-off or deduction, except for taxes where required by law. The Guarantor must pay: (a) in the currency in which the amounts demanded are denominated, and (b) at Westpac's address set out on the front cover or any other address which Westpac gives from time to time. If any amount is received by Westpac in a currency other than that in which it was demanded, the Guarantor will compensate Westpac for any exchange loss. If the Guarantor is required to deduct any tax from any payment (except a tax on Westpac's overall net income), then: (a) it must pay that amount to the appropriate authority and promptly give Westpac evidence of payment, and (b) the amount payable is increased so that (after deducting that tax, and paying any taxes on the increased amount) Westpac receives the same amount it would have received had no deduction been made. 15.2 TIME OF PAYMENT Unless otherwise stated, amounts payable under any of the Clauses 16 (Yield Protection) and 17 (Additional Payments), are payable within two Business Days of demand. 15.3 INTEREST The Guarantor will pay interest on any amount which has been demanded by Westpac but remains unpaid at the rate at which overdue amounts bear interest under the Bank Documents. If several rates are provided for in the Bank Documents, interest under these conditions will be payable at the highest of those rates. Interest will accrue each day on each amount due under a Bank Document but unpaid. Unless otherwise specified in the Bank Document, the rate will be Westpac's Reference Lending Rate' then applicable plus: (a) in the case of a facility governed by a Bank Document, any margin applied by Westpac under the relevant Bank Document plus 2% per annum; and (b) otherwise, 4% per annum. That interest accrues before and after any judgment. Unless it does so more often, Westpac will be taken to have debited monthly the Guarantor's account with accrued interest under this paragraph. That interest will then itself bear interest. Despite any other provision in any other Bank Document, but only for the purpose of calculating interest, if Westpac is paid moneys by one or more of the Guarantors under a Bank Document and Westpac, although being entitled to apply those moneys to reduce the Secured Moneys, decides instead to deposit the moneys into one or more suspense accounts, interest on the Secured Moneys will be calculated on the difference between the Secured Moneys and the aggregate of all amounts held in such suspense account(s). 16. YIELD PROTECTION Whenever Westpac determines that a Change in Law (as defined below) has the effect of: (a) increasing its costs of funding or maintaining a facility under a Bank Document, or reducing its return or amounts received in respect of the facility; or (b) reducing its return on capital allocated to a facility under a Bank Document (including because more capital needs to be allocated to the facility or cannot be used elsewhere), then it will promptly notify the relevant Guarantor, who must pay Westpac the amount Westpac certifies is necessary to compensate it. That certificate will give an outline of the calculation, and will be conclusive and bind the Guarantor in the absence of manifest error. If the Guarantor so requests, Westpac will negotiate in good faith with a view to finding a means of minimising the effect, but it is not a defence that the effect could have been avoided or minimised. A CHANGE IN LAW is the introduction of, or a change in, any law, official directive, ruling or request or a change in its interpretation. If it does not have the force of law, it must be one with which responsible Australian banks would comply. Without limitation, it includes any occurrence which is a "Change in Law" as described above and which relates to capital adequacy, special deposit, liquidity, reserve, prime assets, tax or prudential requirements (except a change in tax on overall net income). 17. ADDITIONAL PAYMENTS 17.1 INDEMNITY AND COSTS Each Guarantor will indemnify Westpac against any liability, loss, cost or expense (including legal costs on a full indemnity basis and the cost to Westpac of in house counsel at reasonable rates) it incurs in or as a result of an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or a breach of its obligations, or actual or contemplated enforcement of this Agreement or any Bank Document to which it is a party or any Security. 17.2 CURRENCY INDEMNITY Each Guarantor will indemnify Westpac if any amount payable under or in connection with a Bank Document is received in a currency which is different from that in which it is required to be paid under this Agreement. This indemnity applies whatever the reason for receipt of the amount in a different currency. 17.3 EXPENSES The Guarantor will pay: (a) all stamp, transaction and other similar duties and charges, plus (b) all external legal costs which Westpac incurs (on a full indemnity basis), in relation to this Agreement or any Bank Document to which it is a party and any Security and any transaction under them. This includes financial institutions duty and debits tax. The Guarantor will on a full indemnity basis pay all amounts which Westpac incurs in relation to the enforcement of this Agreement or any Security. Each Guarantor will also pay any fines and penalties unless they result from a failure by Westpac to lodge a document for stamping in sufficient time, having received from the Guarantor the amount of stamp duty in good time. 18. GENERAL 18.1 TERM This Agreement will continue so long as there is any liability, obligation, document or agreement between Westpac and any Guarantor or Westpac releases it. 18.2 STATEMENTS The Guarantor agrees that a written statement by Westpac, setting out the amount which the Guarantor owes under this Agreement, is sufficient proof that the Guarantor owes the amount stated, unless it is proved wrong. 18.3 NOTICES Any notice, demand, statement, certificate or other communication by Westpac under any Bank Document may be given by any person whose title includes the word "manager", "counsel", "head" or "president", or any attorney authorised to do so. Notices may be sent by facsimile, post or any other means to the recipient's address or number set out on the signature page of this Agreement or in any other address or number notified to the sender by the recipient. Notices will be taken to have been given if delivered or left at that address on the date on which it is delivered or left. 18.4 AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS Each Guarantor having its registered office outside Queensland: (a) irrevocably appoints Collins Finance and Management Pty Ltd A.C.N. 009 996 721 ("COLLINS FINANCE") as its agent for service of process relating to any proceedings before the courts and appellate courts of the State of Queensland in connection with each Bank Document; and (b) agrees that failure by Collins Finance to notify it of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. 19. APPROPRIATION AND SET-OFF 19.1 APPROPRIATION Any money paid to Westpac to reduce the Customer's debts to Westpac may be used to pay off any part of the Customer's debts which Westpac chooses. 19.2 SET-OFF If the Guarantor has any money in any account with Westpac, Westpac may use it to pay money the Guarantor owes to Westpac under this Agreement, but it need not do so. It can convert currencies using its normal procedures. To the maximum extent allowed by law, the Guarantor gives up any right to set off any amounts Westpac owes it against amounts owed by the Guarantor under this Agreement. 20. ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER Westpac can transfer its rights under this Agreement to someone else. If Westpac does, this Agreement will apply to the transferee as if it were Westpac. To the maximum extent allowed by law, any transfer will be free of any set off, equity or cross-claim which but for this paragraph the Guarantor would have had against Westpac or the transferee of this Agreement. Westpac may disclose information concerning the Guarantee or the Guarantor to a potential transferee or sub-participant of this Agreement, the Guaranteed Obligations or the Guaranteed Money. No Guarantor may assign its rights under any Bank Document. 21. RELIANCE The Guarantor acknowledges that it did not sign this Agreement relying on any promises or statements made by Westpac. It does not matter whether they were made in response to any question or not. The only terms which apply to this Agreement are contained in it. Westpac is not required to do anything in relation to, or tell the Guarantor anything concerning, the Customer's financial and business condition and affairs or its transactions with Westpac. 22. MULTIPLE PARTIES 22.1 MULTIPLE GUARANTORS The terms of this Agreement apply to each Guarantor individually and to all Guarantors as a group. Each Guarantor is individually liable for the full amount of the Guaranteed Moneys, even if one or more of the others: (a) has not signed or is not bound by it, or (b) in the future stops being liable (for example, because Westpac releases that Guarantor). Westpac can demand payment from one or more of the Guarantors without demanding it from the others. References to "the Guarantor", "a Guarantor" or "Guarantors" shall be construed accordingly. 22.2 MULTIPLE CUSTOMERS The terms of the guarantee and this Agreement apply to each Customer individually and to all of them as a group. Without limiting the above, this Agreement applies to money owed by any one or more of them. References to "the Customer", "a Customer" or "Customers" shall be construed accordingly 23. NEW GUARANTORS A party can join this Agreement as a guarantor. To do so the party must sign an accession agreement in the form attached. Upon signing the agreement the party will automatically become a guarantor under this Agreement and it, as well as the other parties to this Agreement, will have the same obligations and rights as if the party were named in it as a Guarantor and Customer, and as if the party had signed this Agreement. 24. LAW AND JURISDICTION This Agreement is governed by Queensland law. The Guarantor accepts the non- exclusive jurisdiction of the courts having jurisdiction there. Any law that allows the Guarantor or the Customer to avoid or defer payment, or that gives the Guarantor or Customer rights not contained in this Agreement, does not apply, unless the law is one which applies despite an agreement to the contrary. If any part of this Agreement is prohibited or unenforceable, it will not affect the remaining part. 25. COUNTERPARTS This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. All of such counterparts, taken together, shall be deemed to constitute the one instrument. 26. ATTORNEYS Each attorney executing this agreement states that he has no notice of revocation of his power of attorney. 27. INCONSISTENCY To the extent that there is any express inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any other Bank Document the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
