3.2   Reasonable endeavours
  (a)   Each party must use its reasonable endeavours to procure that:

Scheme Implementation Deed     page 15

 


 

  3     Conditions precedent and pre-implementation steps
  (2)   there is no occurrence within the control of MSL or OSI (as the context requires) that would prevent any of the conditions precedent in clause 3.1, which such party must use reasonable endeavours to satisfy, being satisfied.
  (b)   OSI must, without limiting clause 3.2(a):
  (1)   lodge its FIRB application (pursuant to the condition precedent in clause 3.1(a)) with FIRB no later than 4.00pm on 18 October 2010 (if not already lodged);

  (d)   If a party waives the breach or non-fulfilment of any of the conditions precedent in clause 3.1, that waiver will not preclude it from suing the other party for any breach of this deed including without limitation a breach that resulted in the non-fulfilment of the condition precedent that was waived.
3.4   Termination on failure of condition precedent
  (a)   If any event occurs which would prevent any of the conditions precedent in clause 3.1 being satisfied, or there is an occurrence that will prevent any of the conditions precedent being satisfied by the time and date specified in this deed for its satisfaction or if the Scheme has not become Effective by the End Date, the parties must consult in good faith to:
  (1)   consider and if agreed determine whether the Transaction may proceed by way of alternative means or methods;
 
  (2)   consider and if agreed change the date of the application made to the Court for an order under section 411(4)(b) of the Corporations Act approving the Scheme or adjourning that application (as applicable) to another date agreed to in writing by OSI and MSL (being a date no later than 5 Business Days before the End Date); or

Scheme Implementation Deed     page 16

 


 

  3     Conditions precedent and pre-implementation steps
      liability to the other party because of that termination, unless the relevant occurrence or the failure of the condition precedent to be satisfied, or the failure of the Scheme to become Effective, arises out of a breach of clauses 3.2 or 3.5 in which case the party in breach will not be entitled to so terminate (for the avoidance of doubt, in such circumstances, the party which is not the party in breach of clauses 3.2 or 3.5 is entitled to terminate this deed).
 
  (c)   Subject to any rights or obligations arising under or pursuant to clauses that are expressed to survive termination (including by virtue of clause 12.4), on termination of this deed, no party shall have any rights against or obligations to any other party under this deed except for those rights and obligations which accrued prior to termination.
 
  (d)   If the condition precedent set out in clause 3.1(b) is not satisfied only because of a failure to obtain the majority required by section 411(4)(a)(ii)(A) of the Corporations Act, then either party may by written notice within 3 Business Days after the date of the conclusion of the Scheme Meeting require the approval of the Court to be sought, pursuant to the Court’s discretion in that section, provided the party has in good faith formed the view that the prospect of the Court exercising its discretion in that way is reasonable, in which case the other party may not terminate this deed until such time as the Court has made a determination not to grant such approval.
3.5   Certain notices
  (a)   If, before the time specified for satisfaction of a condition precedent, an event that will prevent that condition precedent being satisfied occurs, the party with knowledge of that event must immediately give the other party written notice of that event.
 
  (b)   MSL and OSI (as the case may be) must promptly advise each other orally and in writing of any change or event causing, or which, so far as can reasonably be foreseen, would cause:

  (3)   a material breach of this deed by a relevant party.

  (e)   Upon receipt of a notice given under clause 3.5(b), give written notice to the other party as soon as possible (and in any event before 5.00pm on the Business Day before the Second Court Date) as to whether or not it waives (if entitled to do so) the breach or non-fulfilment of any condition precedent resulting from the occurrence of that change or event, specifying the condition precedent in question.

  (b)   OSI requested provision be made for the payments outlined in this clause 11, without which OSI would not have entered into this deed and the proposal would not have been put to MSL;
 
  (c)   each of OSI’s board and the MSL Board believe that it is reasonable and appropriate for both parties to agree to the payment referred to in this clause 11 to secure OSI’s entry into this deed and the benefits to MSL Shareholders from participation in the Transaction; and
 
  (d)   both parties have received legal advice in relation to this deed and the operation of this clause 11.
11.2   Payment of Reimbursement Fee by MSL
 
    Subject to clause 11.5, MSL must pay the Reimbursement Fee to OSI, without set-off or withholding, if:
  (a)   prior to the end of the Exclusivity Period any member of the MSL Board fails to recommend the Scheme or withdraws or adversely modifies his recommendation that MSL Shareholders (other than Excluded Shareholders) vote in favour of the Scheme, unless either:
  (1)   the Independent Expert concludes in the Independent Expert’s Report (either initially or in any updated report) that the Scheme is not in the best interests of MSL Shareholders (except in circumstances where the Independent Expert reaches that conclusion as a result of a Competing Transaction having been announced or made public);
 
  (2)   MSL is entitled to terminate this deed pursuant to clause 12.1(a)(1), clause 12.1(a)(2) or clause 12.2(b) and has terminated this deed as a result of those clauses; or
 
  (3)   failure of a condition precedent in clause 3.1 other than as a result of a breach by MSL of clause 3.2;

  (2)   acquires a Relevant Interest in more than 30% of the MSL Shares as a result of a transaction that is or has become unconditional; or

  (b)   The demand for payment of the Reimbursement Fee can only be made after the occurrence of an event referred to in clause 11.2.
 
  (c)   MSL is only liable to pay the Reimbursement Fee once.

11.5   Compliance with law
  (a)   No amount will be payable by MSL under clause 11.2 if the Scheme becomes Effective, despite the occurrence of any event in clause 11.2. To the extent that any amounts have already been paid to OSI under clause 11.2 and the Scheme becomes Effective, such amounts must immediately be refunded to MSL.
 
  (b)   This clause 11 does not impose an obligation on MSL to pay the Reimbursement Fee to the extent that the obligation to pay the Reimbursement Fee:
  (1)   constitutes unacceptable circumstances as declared by the Takeovers Panel; or
 
  (2)   is held by a court to be unlawful,
      after all proper avenues of appeal and review, whether judicial or otherwise, have been exhausted. The parties must take all reasonable steps to ensure that any such determination applies to the minimum extent possible.
 
  (c)   The parties must not make, cause or permit to be made, any application to a court or the Takeovers Panel for or in relation to a determination referred to in clause 11.5(b).
11.6   Other claims
 
    Where an amount becomes payable to OSI under clause 11.2 and is actually paid to OSI (or is payable, but no demand is made under clause 11.2), OSI cannot make any Claim (other than a Claim under this clause 11) against any of the MSL Indemnified Parties which directly or indirectly relates to the facts, matters, circumstances, events or occurrences which gave rise to the obligation to make the payment to OSI under clause 11.2.

14   GST
  (a)   Any consideration or amount payable under this deed, including any non-monetary consideration (as reduced in accordance with clause 14(e) if required) (Consideration) is exclusive of GST.
 
  (b)   If GST is or becomes payable on a Supply made under or in connection with this deed, an additional amount (Additional Amount) is payable by the party providing consideration for the Supply (Recipient) equal to the amount of GST payable on that Supply as calculated by the party making the Supply (Supplier) in accordance with the GST Law.
 
  (c)   The Additional Amount payable under clause 14(b) is payable at the same time and in the same manner as the Consideration for the Supply, and the Supplier must provide the Recipient with a Tax Invoice. However, the Additional Amount is only payable on receipt of a valid Tax Invoice.

Any refund or credit must accompany such notification or the Recipient must pay any further amount within 7 days after receiving such notification, as appropriate. If there is an Adjustment Event in relation to the Supply, the requirement for the Supplier to notify the Recipient will be satisfied by the Supplier issuing to the Recipient an Adjustment Note within 14 days after becoming aware of the occurrence of the Adjustment Event.
  (e)   Despite any other provision in this deed:
  (1)   if an amount payable under or in connection with this deed (whether by way of reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise) is calculated by reference to an amount incurred by a party, whether by way of cost, expense, outlay, disbursement or otherwise (Amount Incurred), the amount payable must be reduced by the amount of any Input Tax Credit to which that party is entitled in respect of that Amount Incurred; and
 
  (2)   no Additional Amount is payable under clause 14(b) in respect of a Supply to which s 84-5 of the GST Law applies.
  (f)   Any reference in this clause 14 to an Input Tax Credit to which a party is entitled includes an Input Tax Credit arising from a Creditable Acquisition by that party but to which the Representative Member of a GST Group of which the party is a member is entitled.
 
  (g)   Any term starting with a capital letter in this clause 14 that is not defined in this deed has the same meaning as the term has in the A New Tax System (Goods & Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth).
