and the benefit of each of the Transaction Documents to which
the Security Trustee is a party,
in each case, on trust for each Mortgagee, in accordance with the
terms and conditions of this deed.

(a) The Security Trustee shall, as regards the exercise of all
discretion vested in it by this deed and all other
Transaction Documents, except where expressly provided
otherwise, have regard to the interest of the Mortgagees.
(b) Subject to this deed, if there is at any time, with respect to
enforcement, a conflict between a duty owed by the Security
Trustee to any Mortgagee or class of Mortgagee, and a duty
owed by it to another Mortgagee or class of Mortgagee, the
Security Trustee must give priority to the interests of the
Noteholders (which, in the case of the Class A2 Noteholders,
shall be determined by the Note Trustee acting on their behalf
as provided herein and in the Note Trust Deed).
(c) Subject to this deed (other than paragraph (b)), the Security
Trustee must give priority to the interests only of the Class
A Noteholders if, in the Security Trustee's opinion, (in
relation to which, in determining the interests of the Class
A2 Noteholders, the Security Trustee may rely on a
determination of the Note
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 7

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Trustee), there is a conflict between the interests of the

Noteholders or the interests of the other Mortgagees.

there is a conflict between the interests of the Class A1

Noteholders, the Security Trustee must rely on the
instructions given by an Extraordinary Resolution of Class A
Noteholders in a meeting held in accordance with clause 40).
(e) Provided that the Security Trustee acts in accordance with a
determination of the Note Trustee (where it receives a
determination from the Note Trustee) or in good faith (in each
other case), it shall not incur any liability to any Mortgagee
for giving effect to clauses 2.2(b), 2.2(c) or 2.2(d).

deed and ends on the Vesting Date unless determined earlier.

undertaking of the Trust.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 8
Security Trust Deed [Allens Arthur Robinson Logo]
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. NATURE OF CHARGE
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.1 PRIORITY
The Charge is a first charge and takes priority over all Security
Interests that have been granted over the Mortgaged Property.
4.2 NATURE OF CHARGE
The Charge operates, subject to clause 4.4, as a floating charge only,
over all Mortgaged Property.
4.3 DEALING WITH MORTGAGED PROPERTY
(a) Except with the prior written consent of the Security Trustee
and (subject to clause 40.17(b)) the Noteholder Mortgagees, or
as expressly permitted in any Transaction Document, the
Chargor shall not, and the Trust Manager shall not direct the
Chargor to:
(i) create or allow to exist any Security Interest over
any Mortgaged Property; or
(ii) in any other way:
(A) dispose of;
(B) create or allow any interest in; or

any Mortgaged Property, except, subject to the

with any asset for the time being subject to the
floating charge in the ordinary course of its
ordinary business.
(b) Where by law a Mortgagee may not restrict the creation of any
Security Interest over an asset ranking after the Charge,
paragraph (a) will not restrict that creation. However, the
Chargor shall ensure that before that Security Interest is
created the holder of that Security Interest enters into a
deed of priority in form and substance specified by the
Security Trustee.

immediately crystallise and operate as a fixed charge:

Manager's Default including full details of that Event of Default,
Trustee's Default, Servicer Transfer Event or Trust Manager's Default
(as the case may be).
9. ENFORCEMENT
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9.1 POWER TO ENFORCE
At any time after the Charge becomes enforceable, the Security Trustee
may, at its discretion and without further notice (subject to the terms
of this deed including, without limitation, clause 8.2) take such
proceedings as it may think fit to enforce any of the provisions of
this deed.
9.2 NO OBLIGATION TO ENFORCE
Subject to clause 9.3, pending the receipt of directions from the
Voting Mortgagees as contemplated by clauses 9.3 and 9.4, the Security
Trustee shall not be bound to take any action or give any consent or
waiver or make any determination under this deed (including, to appoint
any Receiver, to declare the Charge enforceable or the Secured Moneys
immediately due and payable pursuant to clause 8.2 or to take any other
proceedings referred to in clause 9.1). Nothing in this clause shall
affect the operation of clause 4.4 or the Charge becoming enforceable
prior to the Security Trustee receiving directions from the Mortgagees.
9.3 OBLIGATION TO CONVENE MEETING
Following the Security Trustee becoming actually aware of the
occurrence of an Event of Default in accordance with clause 38, it
shall, subject to clause 9.7, promptly convene a meeting of the Voting
Mortgagees in accordance with this deed, at which it shall seek
directions from the Voting Mortgagees by way of an Extraordinary
Resolution of the Voting Mortgagees (or a written resolution signed by
all Voting Mortgagees) regarding the action it should take as a result
of that Event of Default including whether to do any of the things
referred to in clauses 8.2(a) to 8.2(d) inclusive.
9.4 SECURITY TRUSTEE TO ACT IN ACCORDANCE WITH DIRECTIONS
(a) Subject to sub-clause (b), the Security Trustee shall take all
action necessary to give effect to any Extraordinary
Resolution of the Voting Mortgagees or to any direction of the
Note Trustee (where it is the only Voting Mortgagee) and shall
comply with all directions contained in or given pursuant to
any Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Mortgagees or to
any direction given by the Note Trustee (where it is the only
Voting Mortgagee).
(b) The obligation of the Security Trustee pursuant to sub-clause
(a) is subject to:
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 16
Security Trust Deed [Allens Arthur Robinson Logo]
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(i) this deed; and
(ii) the Security Trustee being adequately indemnified from
the Trust Funds or the Security Trustee receiving from
the Voting Mortgagees (other than the Note Trustee) an
indemnity in a form reasonably satisfactory to the
Security Trustee (which may be by way of an
Extraordinary Resolution of the Voting Mortgagees)
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 Mortgagees.
The Security Trustee shall first claim on its indemnity from
the Trust Assets before it claims on any indemnity from the
Mortgagees (other than the Note Trustee), including any
indemnity provided under clause 9.5. The Note Trustee is in no
circumstance required to give an indemnity to the Security
Trustee.
(c) If an Event of Default is a payment default in respect of a
subordinated Class of Notes, as long as there are Notes
outstanding that rank prior to those subordinated Notes, the
Security Trustee shall not take any action without the consent
of each Class of Noteholders in respect of each Class of prior
ranking Notes (or, in the case of the Class A2 Noteholders,
the Note Trustee) by Extraordinary Resolution.
(d) If the Security Trustee becomes bound to take steps and/or
proceed under this deed and it fails to do so within a
reasonable time and such failure is continuing the Voting
Mortgagees may exercise such powers as they determine in
accordance with the Series Notice and (where relevant) the
Note Trust Deed and then only if and to the extent they are
able to do so under Australian law.
9.5 SECURITY TRUSTEE MUST RECEIVE INDEMNITY
If:
(a) the Security Trustee convenes a meeting of the Voting
Mortgagees, or is required by an Extraordinary Resolution to
take any action under this deed, and advises the Voting
Mortgagees that the Security Trustee will not act in relation
to the enforcement of this deed unless it is personally
indemnified by the Voting Mortgagees (other than the Note
Trustee) 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) the Voting Mortgagees refuse to grant the requested indemnity,
and put it in funds,
then the Security Trustee will not be obliged to act in relation to
that enforcement. In those circumstances, the Voting Mortgagees may
exercise such Powers as they determine by Extraordinary Resolution and
the Security Trustee is not liable in any manner whatsoever in relation
to, or in connection with, such an exercise of those powers. The Note
Trustee is in no circumstance required to give any indemnity to the
Security Trustee.

prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent breach,
to any waiver or authorisation of any breach or proposed
breach of any of the terms and conditions of the Transaction
Documents or any of the provisions of this deed which is not,
in the reasonable opinion of the Security Trustee, materially
prejudicial to the interests of the Mortgagees and may
determine that any event that would otherwise be an Event of
Default shall not be treated as an Event of Default for the
purpose of this deed.
(b) No such waiver, authorisation or determination shall be made
in contravention of any directions contained in an
Extraordinary Resolution of Voting Mortgagees.
(c) No waiver, authorisation or determination may, once given, be
overridden or withdrawn by an Extraordinary Resolution of

determination on terms that allow it to be overridden or

faith upon any resolution purporting to have been passed at any meeting
of the Voting Mortgagees in respect of which minutes have been made and

binding upon the Voting Mortgagees.

and without giving notice. It may exercise those Powers and its Powers
without taking possession or being liable as mortgagee in possession.
Without limitation, it may exercise those Powers and its Powers
directly or through one or more agents. In the latter event, anything
done or incurred by such an agent will be taken to be done or incurred
by the Security Trustee provided that the Security Trustee will have no

any Transaction Document; or

14. PERFORMANCE OF CHARGOR'S OBLIGATIONS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 24
Security Trust Deed [Allens Arthur Robinson Logo]
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(iii) THIRD, to the extent that the moneys received by the
Security Trustee represent the proceeds of any cash
collateral lodged by a Support Facility Provider under

in accordance with the relevant document to satisfy
any obligation owed to the Chargor by the Support
Facility Provider);
(iv) FOURTH, to pay (pari passu and rateably):

credit of an account in the name of the Chargor with any bank
carrying on business in Australia, the Security Trustee,
Receiver, Mortgagee or Attorney (as the case may be) will be
under no further liability in respect of it.
16.2 MONEYS ACTUALLY RECEIVED
In applying any moneys towards satisfaction of the Secured Moneys, the
Chargor will be credited only with the money available for that purpose
which is actually received by the relevant Mortgagee or, where the

date from the time of receipt.
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 25
Security Trust Deed Allens Arthur Robinson
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
16.3 AMOUNTS CONTINGENTLY DUE
If any of the Secured Moneys is contingently owing to any Mortgagee at
the time of a distribution of an amount under clause 16.1, the Security
Trustee may retain any of that amount. If it does, it shall place the
amount retained on short term interest bearing deposit until the
relevant Secured Moneys become actually due or cease to be contingently
owing, or it becomes reasonably apparent that the relevant contingency
will not occur and the Security Trustee shall then:
(a) pay to that Mortgagee, or (where the Mortgagee is a Class A2
Noteholder) to the Note Trustee, the amount which becomes
actually due to it; and
(b) apply the balance of the amount retained (together with
interest earned on the deposit) in accordance with clause
16.1.
16.4 NOTICE OF SUBSEQUENT SECURITY INTERESTS
(a) If any Mortgagee receives actual or constructive notice of a
subsequent Security Interest affecting any of the Mortgaged
Property it may open a separate account in the name of the
Chargor in the books of that Mortgagee.
(b) If that Mortgagee does not open a new account it will be
treated as if it had done so at the time it received actual or
constructive notice of the Security Interest.
(c) From the time the new account is opened or is taken to be
opened:
(i) all advances and accommodation made available by
that Mortgagee to the Chargor;
(ii) all payments and repayments made by the Chargor to
that Mortgagee; and
(iii) moneys to be applied towards the Secured Moneys
under clause 16.1,
will be or will be taken to be debited or credited, as
appropriate, to the new account. Payments, repayments and
other moneys will only be applied in reduction of other
Secured Moneys owing to that Mortgagee to the extent that
there is no debit balance in that account.
16.5 SATISFACTION OF DEBTS
Without limiting clause 31, each Mortgagee shall accept the
distribution of moneys under this clause in full and final satisfaction
of all Secured Moneys owing to it, and any debt represented by any
shortfall that exists after any final distribution under this clause is
extinguished.
16.6 PROPORTIONATE SHARING
(a) SHARING
Whenever any Mortgagee receives or recovers any money in
respect of any sum due from the Chargor under a Transaction
Document in any way (including without limitation by set-off)
or through distribution by the Security Trustee under this
deed (the RECEIVED MONEYS).
(i) the Mortgagee shall immediately notify the Security
Trustee;
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 26
Security Trust Deed [Allens Arthur Robinson Logo]
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(ii) the Mortgagee shall immediately pay that money to
the Security Trustee (unless the Security Trustee
directs otherwise);
(iii) the Security Trustee shall treat the payment as if it
were a payment by the Chargor on account of all sums
then payable to the Mortgagees; and
(iv) (A) the payment or recovery will be taken to
have been a payment for the account of the
Security Trustee and not to the Mortgagee for
its own account, and to that extent the
liability of the Chargor to the Mortgagee
will not be reduced by the recovery or
payment, other than to the extent of any
distribution received by the Mortgagee under
paragraph (iii); and
(B) (without limiting sub-paragraph (A))
immediately on the Mortgagee making or
becoming liable to make a payment under
paragraph (ii), the Chargor shall indemnify
the Mortgagee against the payment to the
extent that (despite sub-paragraph (A)) its
liability has been discharged by the recovery
or payment.
(b) NETTING
If a Mortgagee receives or recovers any Received Moneys, and
does not pay that amount to the Security Trustee under
paragraph (a) above, the Security Trustee may retain out of
amounts which would otherwise be payable to the Mortgagee
under this deed any amounts which the Security Trustee
considers necessary to put all Mortgagees in the same position
as if that Mortgagee had complied with, or been required to
comply with, paragraph (a) above and the Security Trustee's
obligation to apply monies to such Mortgagee shall be
discharged to the extent of such retention.
17. OTHER SECURITY INTERESTS OVER MORTGAGED PROPERTY
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(a) Any Mortgagee and any Receiver or Attorney may rely on the
certificate of a holder of another Security Interest affecting
or purporting to affect the Mortgaged Property as to the
amount and property secured by the Security Interest.
(b) The Security Trustee or any Receiver may at any time pay or
agree to pay the amount certified by the holder of a Security
Interest or purported Security Interest to be necessary to
discharge it or some indebtedness secured by it, or to acquire
it. From the date of payment that amount will be part of the
Secured Moneys and the Chargor shall indemnify the Security
Trustee (and if other Mortgagees indemnify the Security
Trustee, those other Mortgagees) and the Receiver against that
amount. This applies whether or not that Security Interest or
purported Security Interest was valid or prior, equal or
subsequent ranking, or the property or moneys stated in the
certificate were secured by it.
18. PROTECTION OF MORTGAGEES, RECEIVER AND ATTORNEY
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To the extent permitted by law, no Mortgagee, Receiver or Attorney will
be liable:
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Page 27

(a) in respect of any conduct, delay, negligence or breach of duty

In this clause a DEALING is:
(a) any payment or any delivery or handing over of an asset to; or
(b) any acquisition, incurring of Financial Indebtedness, receipt,
sale, lease, disposal or other dealing, by,
any Mortgagee or any Receiver or Attorney, or any person who purports
or is purported to be a Receiver or Attorney.
19.2 RECEIPT
The receipt of any Authorised Signatory of any Mortgagee or any
Receiver or Attorney (or person who purports, or is purported, to be a
Receiver or Attorney) for any moneys or assets payable to, or
receivable or received by, it exonerates the person paying those moneys
or handing over that asset from being concerned as to their
application, or from being liable or accountable for their loss or
misapplication.

rights to make those applications and take those proceedings.
31.4 LIABILITY OF SECURITY TRUSTEE LIMITED TO ITS RIGHT OF INDEMNITY
Notwithstanding any other provision of this deed, the Security Trustee
will have no liability under or in connection with this deed or any
other Transaction Document (whether to the Mortgagees, the Chargor, the
Trust Manager or any other person) or the Trust or in respect of the
Notes other than to the extent to which the liability is able to be
satisfied out of the property of the trust established under this deed
out of which the Security Trustee is actually indemnified or is
entitled to be reimbursed for the liability. This limitation will not
apply to a liability of the Security Trustee to the extent that it is
not satisfied because, under this deed, any other Transaction Document
or by operation of law, there is a reduction in the extent of the
Security Trustee's indemnification out of the Assets of the Trust as a
result of the Security Trustee's fraud, negligence or wilful default.
Nothing in this clause 30.4 or any similar provision in any other
Transaction Document limits or adversely affects the powers of the
Security Trustee, any receiver or attorney in respect of the Charge or
the Mortgaged Property.
32. WAIVERS, REMEDIES CUMULATIVE

remedy provided by law.

give conditionally, approvals and consents, may be satisfied or
unsatisfied, may form opinions, and may exercise its Powers, at its
absolute discretion.
34. SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(a) Any provision of this deed or any Collateral Security which is
prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction is ineffective
as to that jurisdiction to the extent of the prohibition or
unenforceability. That does not invalidate the remaining
provisions of this deed or any Collateral Security nor affect
the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other
jurisdiction.
(b) Without limiting the generality of paragraph (a):
(i) the definition of Secured Moneys does not include any
liability so long as and to the extent that the
inclusion of that liability would avoid, invalidate or

by the chairman, the Chargor, the Trust Manager, the Note
Trustee or the Security Trustee or by one or more persons
holding, or being a Representative or Representatives holding
or representing, in aggregate not less than 15% of the then
Secured Moneys, a declaration by the chairman that a
resolution has been carried by a particular majority or lost
or not carried by any particular majority shall be conclusive

(c) (POLL) If at any meeting a poll is so demanded, it shall be
taken in such manner and (subject as provided below) either at
once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs and
the result of such poll shall 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 shall not
prevent the continuance of the meeting for the transaction of
any business other than the question on which the poll has
been demanded.
(d) (NO ADJOURNMENT) Any poll demanded at any meeting on the
election of a chairman or on any question of adjournment shall
be taken at the meeting without adjournment.

he is entitled in the same way.
(f) (EVIDENCE) A certificate from the Note Trustee to the Security

a Class A2 Noteholder will be satisfactory evidence to the

adjourned meeting, but the Security Trustee shall not thereby
be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity or
the authority of the proxy named in any such appointment. The
proxy named in any appointment of proxy need not be a Voting
Mortgagee.

or not (and if it does not reply within that time
its consent shall be taken to have been given);
and
(ii) subject to paragraph (c), if an Extraordinary Resolution
of Voting Mortgagees determines that the Act should or
should not occur, the Extraordinary Resolution will
override any determination by the Noteholder Mortgagees
in relation to any such clause.

fraud, negligence or wilful default, the Security Trustee
shall not be liable to any Mortgagee for acting, or not
acting, on the directions of the Noteholder Mortgagees, even
