Agreed terms

1           Condition to settlement
1.1         This Contract and Settlement of this Contract is subject to the condition subsequent that
            the Plan of Subdivision is registered by the Registrar of Titles before the end of the
            Registration Period.
1.2         If the Plan of Subdivision is not registered before the end of the Registration Period,
            either the Vendor or the Purchaser may, at any time after the end of the Registration
            Period but only before the Plan of Subdivision is registered, terminate this Contract by
            written notice served on the other.
1.3         If the registration of the Plan of Subdivision is, or is likely to be in the Vendor's opinion,
            delayed as a result of any one or more of the following events:
            (a)   conditions or requirements being imposed by:
                  (i)       any act or law;
                  (ii)      any statutory, governmental or like body; or
                  (iii)     a surveyor,
                  which were not reasonably foreseeable by the Vendor;
            (b)   delay by any statutory, governmental or like body or a surveyor in providing any
                  necessary approvals or consents, if reasonable steps to obtain such approvals or
                  consents have been taken;
            (c)   riots, civil commotion, malicious damage, burglary or theft;
            (d)   industrial action;
            (e)   any act of God, fire, flood, storm, tempest, lightning, earthquake or explosion or
                  inclement weather; or
            (f)   any other cause beyond the control of the Vendor,
            then the Registration Period will be extended by such a period as the Vendor may
            reasonably determine and notify to the Purchaser, up to a maximum of 24 months. The
            Vendor agrees to notify the Purchaser of such extension to the Registration Period as
            soon as practicable.
1.4         In the event that the exercise of the Vendor‟s rights under special condition 1.3 is
            unenforceable for any reason, the parties acknowledge and agree that the Registration
            Period will be taken to be the date that is 48 months after the Day of Sale.
1.5         If this Contract is terminated under special condition 1.2:
            (a)   any money paid by the Purchaser on account of the Price will be refunded to the
                  Purchaser (less all proper bank and government charges, fees and taxes); or
            (b)   any Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond accepted by the Vendor under special
                  condition 12 will be returned to the Purchaser or the Bank Guarantor or Deposit
                  Bond Issuer for cancellation,

6087369/2                                                                             page 1
and the Purchaser will not be entitled to any compensation from the Vendor in respect
            of any losses, costs, fees or other expenses paid or incurred by the Purchaser in
            relation to this Contract.
1.6         Subject to the Purchaser's rights under the Sale of Land Act 1962 (Vic) and under
            special condition 1.2, the Purchaser agrees not to make any objection, requisition or

                  otherwise in connection with the Vendor‟s development of the Site;
            (b)   that the Vendor may require the Purchaser to create in the instrument of transfer

                  (acting reasonably) considers necessary for the development and proper
                  functioning of the Site; and

6087369/2                                                                          page 2

                  and detrimentally affect the Purchaser;

            (c)   any re-numbering of lots on the Plan of Subdivision;
            (d)   any consolidation of lots on the Plan of Subdivision; or
            (e)   any matter or thing or intention of the Vendor disclosed or referred to in this

(b)   the Vendor may be directed by the municipal authority or a public authority to

            (a)   where separate assessments have not been issued in relation to the Property,

                            (B)        the Purchaser will proceed with Settlement notwithstanding that
                                       the land tax assessed has not been paid by the Vendor; and
                  (ii)   where the land tax has been assessed and is due prior to the Settlement

            (b)   may be required to undertake a Site induction program before conducting the

                  reasonably);
            (b)   the Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Australia becoming precluded from

                  condition 10.2 are incapable of being or will not be satisfied.
10.5        If within 55 days of the Day of Sale (or within such further period as the Vendor may
            allow) the Purchaser receives notification from the Treasurer of the Commonwealth of
            Australia notifying the Purchaser that approval has not been granted, then:

6087369/2                                                                          page 6
(a)   all money paid by the Purchaser on account of the Price will be refunded to the
                  Purchaser together with any interest earned (less all proper bank and government

10.6        If none of the conditions referred to in special condition 10.2 are satisfied within 55 days
            from the Day of Sale (or within such further period as the Vendor may allow), then this
            Contract shall no longer be subject to the conditions in special condition 10.2 and the
            Purchaser shall be bound by this Contract as if this Contract did not contain special
            condition 10.
10.7        The Purchaser shall not make any objection, requisition or claim, nor rescind, terminate

11.1        The Purchaser must either:
            (a)   pay the Deposit (or part of it) by cheque to the Vendor‟s Solicitor in accordance
                  with the Particulars of Sale to be held in accordance with General Condition 6.3;
                  or
            (b)   provide a Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond in the amount equal to the Deposit or

                  condition 12.
11.2        In compliance with General Condition 6.3, if the Deposit (or any part of it) is paid by
            cheque, the Vendor and the Purchaser authorise the Vendor's Solicitor to invest the
            Deposit (or that part of it) in an interest bearing trust account with the Vendor's
            Solicitor‟s Bank until the earliest to occur of:
            (a)   Settlement;
            (b)   release of the Deposit to the Vendor under the provisions of section 27 of the
                  Sale of Land Act 1962 (Vic); or

11.4        Neither party will make any claim against the Vendor's Solicitor for any taxes deducted
            from the interest earned on the money invested under special condition 11.2, because
            of failure by that party to give its tax file number to the Vendor's Solicitor‟s Bank.
11.5        Neither the Vendor nor the Vendor‟s Solicitor is liable to the Purchaser under any
            circumstances if withholding tax is deducted from the interest.

12          Bank Guarantee and Deposit Bond
12.1        If the Vendor accepts a Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond from the Purchaser in lieu of
            actual payment of the Deposit or any part of the Deposit, the Purchaser acknowledges

6087369/2                                                                          page 7
that the delivery of the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond to the Vendor's Solicitor within
            10 Business Days of the Day of Sale will, to the extent of the amount guaranteed or
            undertaken to be paid under the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond, be treated as
            compliance with the Purchaser‟s obligation to pay the Deposit or part of the Deposit (as
            the case may be) to the Vendor‟s Solicitor.
12.2        Any Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond delivered to the Vendor‟s Solicitor under special
            condition 12.1, must be held by the Vendor‟s Solicitor on trust for the Purchaser until

12.3        The Purchaser must pay the amount stipulated in the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond
            to the Vendor by unendorsed bank cheque on the Settlement Date, or such other time
            as the Vendor is entitled to the Deposit under section 27 of the Sale of Land Act 1962
            (Vic). On payment of the amount stipulated in the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond,
            the Vendor‟s Solicitor will return the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond to the Purchaser
            or to the Bank Guarantor for cancellation by the Bank Guarantor or to the Deposit Bond
            Issuer, as the case may be.
12.4        If the Vendor rescinds or otherwise lawfully terminates this Contract, then to the extent
            that the amount has not already been paid to the Vendor‟s Solicitor by the Bank
            Guarantor or the Deposit Bond Issuer, the Purchaser must immediately pay the Deposit
            (or so much of the Deposit as is unpaid) to the Vendor's Solicitor.
12.5        If the Vendor, despite the other provisions of this Contract, accepts a Bank Guarantee
            or Deposit Bond with an expiry date that is a date that is before the end of the
            Registration Period (or, because the Registration Period is extended, a Bank Guarantee
            or Deposit Bond has such an expiry date), the Purchaser agrees that on or before the
            date 20 Business Days prior to the expiry day of the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond,
            the Purchaser will provide to the Vendor‟s Solicitor a replacement Bank Guarantee or
            Deposit Bond with an expiry date at least 30 days after the expiry date of the
            Registration Period.
12.6        If the Vendor extends the Registration Period under special condition 1.3 or the
            Registration Period is taken to be extended under special condition 1.4, the Purchaser
            must, at its own cost, immediately on being notified of the extension, arrange for a
            replacement Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond with an expiry date at least 30 days after
            the expiry date of the extended Registration Period.
12.7        The Purchaser agrees that, without limiting the Vendor's other remedies, if the
            Purchaser fails to comply with special conditions 12.5 or 12.6 then:
            (a)   the Vendor‟s Solicitor may call upon the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond; and
            (b)   the Vendor may terminate this Contract by written notice to the Purchaser.
12.8        If at any time the issuer of the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond Issuer is not of at least
            the Required Rating then, at the request of the Vendor, the Purchaser must serve on
            the Vendor‟s Solicitor a replacement Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond, as applicable.
            The replacement Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond must be from an issuer of at least
            the Required Rating.
12.9        The obligations of the Purchaser under this special condition 12 are an essential term of
            this Contract.
12.10       The Vendor is not obliged to accept a Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond under special
            condition 12.1.

12.11       Pending Settlement or termination or rescission of the Contract occurring, the
            Purchaser may not and must not request that the Vendor or the Vendor‟s Solicitor
            return the Bank Guarantee or Deposit Bond to the Purchaser.

21          Restriction on Further Sale
21.1        Subject to special condition 21.3, unless the Purchaser has obtained the prior written
            approval of the Vendor (which approval may be given or withheld in the Vendor‟s
            absolute discretion), the Purchaser must not Sell or otherwise dispose of the Property:
            (a)   before Settlement; or
            (b)   before issue of a Certificate of Occupancy for the dwelling on the Property and
                  satisfaction of all requirements of special condition 27.1,
            and in the case that the Vendor‟s prior approval has been obtained, the Purchaser must
            only permit a Sale in circumstances where the requirements of special condition 21.2
            are satisfied.
21.2        The Purchaser must procure the new purchaser to prepare and deliver to the Vendor a
            deed under which the new purchaser:

                  34, 35.1, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41 and 46.6 in place of the outgoing Purchaser; and

            (b)   the Purchaser has provided full details of the Purchaser‟s financial position or
                  other relevant circumstances to the Vendor and the Vendor, acting reasonably,
                  agrees in writing either that a Sale of the Property is reasonable and appropriate
                  in the circumstances or that to prevent that Sale would cause unjustifiable
                  hardship to the Purchaser,
            and in each such case:
            (c)   the Purchaser has complied with special conditions 21.1 and 21.2.
21.4        The Vendor acknowledges that for the purposes of special condition 21.3(b) it would
            cause unjustifiable hardship to the Purchaser if the Vendor refused to grant consent

            (a)   the Purchaser is in default under a mortgage, registered in respect of the
                  Property, for three consecutive months; and
            (b)   the mortgagee has commenced action to enforce the mortgage.
21.5        The parties acknowledge and agree that:
            (a)   nothing in this special condition precludes a mortgagee from entering into
                  possession of the Property and exercising its power of sale in accordance with
                  the provisions of a mortgage provided that the mortgagee complies with this
                  special condition 21; and

6087369/2                                                                       page 13

            Vendor and arising in respect of the matters set out in this special condition 21

            (b)   an employee of a real estate agent,

6087369/2                                                                           page 15
26.2        The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Vendor may make those changes to

            (a)   the minimum set back of a building so as to increase that set back for the Land;
            (b)   allowable site coverage on the Land, so as to decrease permissible site coverage

27.2        If the commencement and completion of construction is delayed due to circumstances
            outside of the control of the Purchaser, then the Purchaser may apply in writing to the
            Vendor for an extension to the relevant dates in special conditions 27.1(a) and/or
            27.1(b). Such extensions may be granted in the Vendor‟s absolute discretion.
27.3        The Purchaser must submit all plans and specifications in respect of the works to the

                  Design Guidelines in the form as at the Settlement Date;

6087369/2                                                                       page 16
(b)   failure to comply with this special condition 27 will result in serious consequences,
                  and such consequences include forfeiture of the Completion Bond or Completion
                  Bank Guarantee (as the case may be) in accordance with special condition 28
                  and/or a right by the Vendor to buy back the Property pursuant to the conditions
                  in special condition 29;
            (c)   under the terms of the Harcrest Design Guidelines, where any ambiguity or
                  dispute arises as to their interpretation or meaning, the matter shall be
                  determined by the MDC whose decision shall be final and binding;
            (d)   the Purchaser has read and understood the Harcrest Design Guidelines,
                  Memorandum of Common Provisions and the associated Building Envelope
                  Plans;
            (e)   in the event of any inconsistency between the Harcrest Design Guidelines and
                  the Memorandum of Common Provisions, the Memorandum of Common
                  Provisions prevail;
            (f)   a fee of $200 payable to Mirvac Victoria Pty Ltd must accompany each
                  application to the MDC and may be payable more than once when multiple
                  submissions are required;
            (g)   the MDC may, but is not obliged to, endorse a development for the Property or
                  any other property within the Land which varies from the specific requirements of
                  the Harcrest Design Guidelines provided the general intent of the Harcrest Design
                  Guidelines are met, in its opinion;
            (h)   neither the Vendor nor the MDC will be liable to the Purchaser in respect of any
                  approval given in accordance with special condition 27.4(g) or the failure of the
                  Vendor or MDC or any other person to enforce the Memorandum of Common
                  Provisions and/or the Harcrest Design Guidelines;
            (i)   if an endorsement by the MDC is given with respect to plans for a proposed
                  dwelling on a lot adjoining or in close proximity to the Property, the MDC may (but
                  is not obliged to) take those plans into account in assessing whether the design
                  and construction for the Property comply with the Memorandum of Common
                  Provisions and/or the Harcrest Design Guidelines; and
            (j)   a design approval of the Purchaser‟s final design drawings and documents by the
                  MDC does not warrant, imply or in any way suggest that the endorsed
                  development plans comply with the Planning Scheme or with the Building
                  Regulations 2006 (Vic) in force at the time of the endorsement or with the
                  requirements of any other law or authorities.
27.5        The Purchaser must carry out any building works:
            (a)   in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Memorandum of Common
                  Provisions and the Harcrest Design Guidelines;
            (b)   with due diligence; and
            (c)   in a proper and workmanlike manner.

            to obtain access to the Property to carry out or complete building works benefiting
            adjacent properties. The Purchaser agrees that it must not unreasonably withhold
            consent to an adjacent property owner or their builders obtaining access to the Property
            for the purposes of facilitating completion of adjacent building works.
