The following rules also apply in interpreting this document, except where the context makes it clear that a rule is not intended to apply. (a) A reference to: (i) legislation (including subordinate legislation) is to that legislation as amended, re-enacted or replaced, and includes any subordinate legislation issued under it; (ii) a document or agreement, or a provision of a document or agreement, is to that document, agreement or provision as amended, supplemented, replaced or novated; (iii) a party to this document or to any other document or agreement includes a permitted substitute or a permitted assign of that party; (iv) a person includes any type of entity or body of persons, whether or not it is incorporated or has a separate legal identity, and any executor, administrator or successor in law of the person; and (v) anything (including a right, obligation or concept) includes each part of it. (b) A singular word includes the plural, and vice versa. (c) A word which suggests one gender includes the other genders. (d) If a word is defined, another part of speech has a corresponding meaning. (e) If an example is given of anything (including a right, obligation or concept), such as by saying it includes something else, the example does not limit the scope of that thing. (f) The word "agreement" includes an undertaking or other binding arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing. 1.3 BUSINESS DAYS If the day on or by which a person must do something under this document is not a Business Day: (a) if it involves any other payment (other than a payment which is due on demand), the person must do it on the next Business Day unless the next Business Day falls in the following month, in which case the payment must be made on the previous 3 Business Day; and (b) in any other case, the person must do it on or by the next Business Day. 1.4 CAPACITY OF CHARGEE (a) The Chargee enters into this document in its capacity as trustee under the Security Trust Deed and, notwithstanding anything in this document, each party to this document (other than the Chargee) acknowledges that any rights which it may have against the Chargee under or in respect of this document shall not be against the Chargee personally but against the Chargee solely in its capacity as trustee under the Security Trust Deed. Accordingly, the Chargee may not be called on or be liable to satisfy any such rights out of any of its personal assets, and recourse (if any) against the Chargee shall be limited to the assets held by it in its capacity as trustee under the Security Trust Deed. (b) However, despite anything in clause 1.4(a), the Chargee is personally liable to the extent that a liability under this document arises out of the Chargee's own fraud, wilful misconduct, gross negligence or breach of trust which disentitles it from an indemnity out of the assets of the Australian Railroad Group Security Trust in relation to the relevant liability. 2. FEATHERWEIGHT FLOATING CHARGE 2.1 FLOATING CHARGE (a) Each Chargor charges by way of floating charge to the Chargee the Charged Property as continuing security for the payment of the Secured Money. (b) The Chargee and the Chargors agree: (i) subject to clauses 5.3 and 5.4 of the Common Provisions and clause 2.1(b)(ii) of this document, each Chargor may, without the consent of the Chargee or of any other person: A. create or permit to subsist any Security which affects the Charged Property or any part of it or enter into any sale, transfer or other disposal of the type referred to in clause 5.3(b) of the Common Provisions of or in respect of the Charged Property or any part of it; and/or B. enter into a single transaction or a series of transactions (whether related or not) and whether voluntary or involuntary to sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Charged Property or any part of it; (ii) notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document, no Chargor may, except with the consent of all Lenders or in accordance with clause 2.1(b)(iii): A. create or permit to subsist any Security which affects the Restricted Property or any part of it or enter into any sale, transfer or other disposal of the type referred to in clause 5.3(b) of the Common Provisions of or in respect of the Restricted Property or any part of it; or B. enter into a single transaction or a series of transactions 4 (whether related or not) and whether voluntary or involuntary to sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Property or any part of it; (iii) each Chargor may, without the consent of the Chargee or any Beneficiary, enter into any transaction of the nature referred to in clause 2.1(b)(ii) in respect of or in relation to the Below Track Property, or any part of it, which constitutes non-essential track infrastructure (each a "TRANSACTION"), provided the Transaction would otherwise be permitted in accordance with clause 5.3 or 5.4 of the Common Provisions, in connection with any proposal by the Chargor for use of any part of the Below Track Property which is non-essential track infrastructure for purposes other than the carriage of freight or associated uses (for example, but without limiting the generality of this clause, use for retail purposes), where that use does not impair the ability of the Chargor to carry out its business, as carried out as at the date of the Common Provisions; (iv) subject to this clause 2.1(b) and clause 5.3 of the Common Provisions, if any Chargor creates or allows to exist a Security over the Charged Property, then any such Security ranks ahead of the Charge. In such circumstances and as soon as practicable after a request by any Chargor, the Chargee agrees to enter into a priority agreement with respect to that Security in order to give effect to this clause, in a form reasonably acceptable to the relevant Chargor; (v) if a Charge Enforcement Event occurs in relation to any Chargor, unless the Chargee agrees otherwise, the Charge immediately and without the Chargee having to give notice to the relevant Chargor takes effect as a fixed charge over the Charged Property of the Chargor to which the Charge Enforcement Event relates. Despite any applicable rule of law to the contrary the Charge does not otherwise take effect as a fixed charge in any circumstances; and (vi) notwithstanding any other provision of this document or any other Finance Document, at the expiration of the Charge Enforcement Period for any Charge Enforcement Event: A. the fixed charge over the relevant Charged Property immediately takes effect as a floating charge over that Charged Property; B. the Chargee will direct any Receiver which it has appointed to the Chargor to which the relevant Charge Enforcement Event relates or the assets of that Chargor to vacate office; and C. until another Charge Enforcement Event in relation to the relevant Chargor occurs: 1) that Chargor may deal with the Charged Property as if it had always been charged by way of a floating charge under the Charge; and 2) a person dealing with that Chargor in relation to the Charged Property may rely on a certificate from the Chargee as conclusive evidence that, as from the expiry of the relevant Charge 5 Enforcement Period, the Charged Property is charged by way of floating charge. The Chargee agrees that it will, at the request of that Chargor, issue certificates on the terms contemplated by this clause 2.1(b)(vi)C.2) provided that the Chargor provides to the Chargee evidence satisfactory to the Chargee, acting reasonably, that the relevant Charge Enforcement Period has expired. 2.2 CONVERSION The Chargee may, at any time by notice in writing to the relevant Chargor, reconvert its security under the Charge from a fixed charge to a floating charge in respect of any asset or class of asset specified in that notice. Any such conversion will be effective from the moment of receipt by the relevant Chargor of such notice. 3. CHARGORS' UNDERTAKINGS Each Chargor must punctually pay the Secured Money when it becomes payable in accordance with the terms of any Finance Document or, in the absence of any agreement, on demand by the Chargee. 4. CHARGEE'S POWERS If this document has become enforceable under clause 5, the Chargee, without notice to any Chargor, may during the Charge Enforcement Period for the relevant Charge Enforcement Event exercise any of the powers that might be exercised by a Receiver even if a Receiver has not been appointed. 5.

(f) (HIRE OUT, LEASE OR LICENSE) hire out, lease or license the Charged Property (including in the name of the relevant Chargor) for any term at the rent or licence 7 fee and on terms that seem desirable to the Receiver (with or without a purchase option and whether or not the Receiver has taken possession);

(b) None of the Chargee, any of its authorised officers or any Receiver is liable for any omission or delay in exercising any power, right, discretion or remedy under this document or for any involuntary loss or irregularity that may occur in relation to the exercise or non-exercise of any of them except to the extent of its own fraud, gross negligence, wilful misconduct or breach of trust. 7.2 CONFLICT OF INTERESTS The Chargee, an authorised officer of the Chargee or other person appointed by the Chargee under this document, an administrator of a Chargor appointed by the Chargee and a Receiver may exercise or agree to exercise a power given by this document or by law even though that person may have a conflict of interests in exercising the power. 9 7.3 LIABILITY FOR LOSS (a) The Chargee is not liable for any loss that a Chargor suffers as a direct or indirect result of: (i) the exercise or attempted exercise of, or failure to exercise, any of its rights contained in this document; and (ii) any release or dealing with any other Guarantee or Security (including any prejudice to or loss of the Chargor's rights of subrogation), except to the extent of its own fraud, gross negligence, wilful misconduct or breach of trust.

PROTECTION OF THIRD PARTIES 8.1 DEALINGS UNDER THIS DOCUMENT A purchaser or other party to a disposal or dealing in attempted exercise of a power contained in this document is not: (a) bound to enquire whether there has been a default, whether a Receiver has been properly appointed or about the propriety or regularity of a sale, disposal or dealing; or (b) affected by notice that a sale, disposal or dealing is unnecessary or improper. Despite any irregularity or impropriety in a sale, disposal or dealing, it is to be treated, for the protection of the purchaser or other party to the disposal or dealing, as being authorised by this document and valid. 8.2 RECEIPTS A receipt that the Chargee, one of its authorised officers or a Receiver gives for any money payable to or receivable by the Chargee or the Receiver because of this document will: (a) relieve the person paying or handing over money or other property from all liability: (i) for the application (or any loss or misapplication) of the money or other 10 property; (ii) to enquire whether the Secured Money has become payable; and (iii) (where appropriate) as to the propriety or regularity of the appointment of the Receiver; and (b) discharge the person paying that money from its liability to pay that money. 9. APPLICATION OF MONEY 9.1 ORDER (a) Subject in all circumstances to clause 13, money that the Chargee or a Receiver receives under or because of this document is to be applied in the following order: (i) (EXPENSES) first in payment of all expenses that the Chargee or a Receiver incurs in or incidental to the exercise or attempted exercise of a power under this document; (ii) (OUTGOINGS) then in payment of any other outgoings that the Receiver or the Chargee thinks it appropriate to pay; (iii) (RECEIVER) then in payment to the Receiver of any remuneration (whether by way of commission or otherwise); (iv) (INDEMNITIES) then in payment to the Chargee or a Receiver of any amount necessary to give effect to any indemnity contained in this document; and (v) (SECURED MONEY) then in payment to the Chargee of the Secured Money recoverable under this Charge and the Chargee agrees that it will distribute any such amount to the Beneficiaries rateably in proportion to the Secured Money owed to each of them. (b) Any surplus will belong to the relevant Chargor or other persons entitled to it and: (i) the surplus shall accrue interest at the Chargee's standard deposit rate for amounts equal to the amount of that surplus; and (ii) the Chargee must pay the surplus together with the interest accrued thereon to the Chargor or other persons entitled to it and is then under no further liability in respect of it. 9.2 ONLY ACTUAL RECEIPTS CREDITED In applying any money towards the Secured Money, each Chargor's account will be credited only with the amount of the money that the Chargee actually receives for that purpose. The credit will date from the time of receipt. 10. CONTINUING SECURITY 10.1 NOTWITHSTANDING SETTLEMENT The Charge is a continuing security notwithstanding any settlement of account, intervening payment or other matter or thing whatever until a final discharge of the Charge is given to the Chargors and will apply to the present and future balance of the Secured Moneys. 11 10.2 PREFERENCE If, after the Chargee applies any amount against any of the Secured Moneys, it forms the opinion in good faith that it is obliged to make a payment in respect of the amount so applied by it to any person under any law relating to bankruptcy, winding up or the protection of creditors: (a) the Chargee's rights are to be reinstated and will be the same in respect of that amount or the relevant part of it, as if the application or the payment or transaction giving rise to it, had not been made; and (b) each Chargor shall immediately do anything (including the signing of documents) required by the Chargee to restore to the Chargee any Security from that Chargor to which it was entitled immediately before that application or the payment or transaction giving rise to it. 11. DISCHARGE The Chargee must at the request and cost of a Chargor release and discharge all Charged Property of that Chargor from this Charge and terminate all of the obligations of that Chargor under this Charge: (a) when the Chargee is satisfied acting reasonably that: (i) without limiting clause 10.2 all the Secured Money has been irrevocably paid and discharged in full; and (ii) no amount remains contingently payable or will become payable on the security of the Charge (including under an indemnity); and (b) on payment or retention of all expenses incurred by or payable to the Chargee or any Receiver. Any discharge is subject to clause 10.2. The Chargee is not obliged to discharge this Charge except in the circumstances specified in this clause 11. 12.
