PART XII
PIPELINE
	52.	The Producers have been granted Pipeline Licence No. 2, to construct, install, own and operate a pipeline for the conveyance of Product from Moomba to Stony Point for an initial term of twenty-one years, which licence shall be renewed for further periods of twenty-one years at the request of the Producers or for such lesser periods as they may nominate.
The said licence may be terminated or cancelled only in the circumstances and in the manner specified in Pipeline Licence No. 2 (including, but not limited to the manner referred to in Condition 22 of that licence) or in such other circumstances as may be agreed between the Producers and the Minister. The Conditions of the licence may be varied only with the consent of the Producers. Ownership of the pipeline shall remain with the Producers subject to the Conditions of Pipeline Licence No. 2. Subject to compliance with the terms of this Indenture and compliance with the Conditions of Pipeline Licence No. 2 the rights conferred upon the Producers by this clause shall continue during the currency of this Indenture.
	53.	To the extent that it is necessary to do so the State and the Minister concur in the execution by PASA and in the contents thereof of the PASA and Producers (Right of Way) Agreement.
	54.	The Producers shall enter into an agreement relating to the maintenance of the pipeline by PASA on terms to be agreed between the Producers and PASA.
	55.	
	(1)	A communications system shall be constructed which shall provide for telemetry of such status information and pressure, flow and other operating data as the Minister shall require, and remote control of valves for routine and emergency operation, and voice communication to locations along and in the near vicinity of the pipeline and mobile vehicles employed for purposes relating to the operation or maintenance of the pipeline.
	(2)	The Producers shall enter into an agreement with PASA on terms to be mutually agreed between the Producers and PASA as to the ownership and use of the aforesaid communications system.
	(3)	It is agreed that the owner of the aforesaid communications system shall be the person who shall cause the communications system to be constructed and who shall bear the cost thereof.
	56.	The State agrees that it will take such action as may be necessary in order to ensure that during the currency of Pipeline Licence No. 2. the right, title and interest in the pipeline land to be acquired by PASA for the purposes of the PASA and Producers (Right of Way) Agreement will be maintained, preserved and protected against any adverse interest or claim and whether or not by the Crown in right of the State and the State undertakes that the pipeline land will be available during the currency of Pipeline Licence No. 2. for utilization by the Producers for the purposes of the pipeline on terms similar to those set forth in the PASA and Producers (Right of Way) Agreement.
	57.	The Producers will not do or perform, nor omit to be done or performed, nor will they knowingly cause or suffer to be done, performed or omitted to be done any act, matter or thing which shall result in a material breach of a Condition of Pipeline Licence No. 2.
	58.	In the event that during the currency of this Indenture the Minister exercises the powers conferred on him by Section 80 l of the Petroleum Act, 1940-1981, the Minister agrees that in determining the terms between a licensee who holds a petroleum production licence under that Act and the Producers relating to the conveying of petroleum the said terms shall, if the Producers so request, provide:
	(1)	That the Producers and each of them shall have priority of use of the pipeline;
	(2)	That the use of the pipeline by any such licensee will be compatible with the use of the pipeline by the Producers;
	(3)	That the use of the pipeline by any such licensee will not result in any deleterious effect to the Producers' petroleum or to the pipeline; and
	(4)	That use of the pipeline by any such licensee shall only be permitted after satisfactory arrangements have been made in relation to measurement and so as to ensure satisfactory identification of ownership of petroleum.
Any fee to be charged by the Producers to the holder of the petroleum production licence for conveying the petroleum if included in terms determined by the Minister shall for each period not be lower than:
	(i)	a sum of money equivalent to the actual cost incurred by the Producers in operating the pipeline for that period including without limitation the pipeline licence fee referred to in the next succeeding clause; together with
	(ii)	a sum of money called the capital cost component. Such capital cost component for that period shall be equal to the equal periodic payment calculated on a credit foncier basis by reference to the replacement value of the pipeline at the time of the Minister's determination, a 15 year amortization period and an interest rate of 18 per centum per annum;
apportioned in the manner following:
The proportion of the foregoing amounts to be borne by the licensee who holds a petroleum production licence shall be calculated on the proportion which the volume of petroleum owned by that party which is conveyed in the pipeline during a period of time bears to the total volume of petroleum conveyed in the pipeline during the same period of time.
The basis of calculations necessary for the foregoing shall be agreed between the Minister and the Producers or, failing agreement, shall be determined by arbitration in accordance with Part XXII of this Indenture.
	59.	
	(1)	Notwithstanding the provisions of any Act or regulation or rule of law or equity to the contrary effect and subject to this clause the Producers, beginning with the first year in which liquid petroleum conveyed through the pipeline is sold by the Producers and ending with the year 1992, shall pay to the State on the 15th day of March in each year an annual licence fee for utilization of the pipeline (hereinafter referred to as "the pipeline licence fee") in respect of each year of Five hundred thousand dollars ($500 000) indexed as provided in sub-clause (2) of this clause.
	(2)	The pipeline licence fee for each year shall be indexed by relation to and shall vary only in accordance with movements in the Consumer Price Index between the December quarter 1981 and the December quarter immediately preceding the year in which the licence fee is to apply and shall not be subject to any other variations during the aforesaid period.
	(3)	Notwithstanding the Petroleum Act, 1940-1981 no pipeline licence fee shall be payable prior to the first year in which liquid petroleum is sold by the Producers from Stony Point.
	(4)	At the end of the first year in which liquid petroleum is sold by the Producers from Stony Point the Producers shall receive a rebate from the State of that proportion of the pipeline licence fee which one million four hundred thousand tonnes less the number of tonnes of Product conveyed through the pipeline in that year bears to one million four hundred thousand tonnes.
	(5)	During the Period referred to in sub-clause (1) the pipeline licence fee shall be in substitution for any other fee, levy or impost that would otherwise be payable by the Producers for use of the pipeline pursuant to the provisions of the Petroleum Act, 1940-1981 or otherwise.
	(6)	If the pipeline licence fee is not paid by the due date as aforesaid an amount of ten per centum thereof shall be added thereto which shall be recoverable by the State as part of the pipeline licence fee.
	60.	Subject always to Condition 23 Pipeline Licence No. 2 the pipeline and all plant, equipment and other property affixed thereto or used in connection therewith or in relation to the operation thereof owned by the Producers or any of them shall notwithstanding any provision of any Act or regulation or of any rule of law or equity to the contrary effect be and shall be deemed conclusively to be chattels and shall be owned by and may be transferred, mortgaged, charged or assigned by, or held on trust for, the Producers or such of them as are entitled thereto.
PART XIII
FURTHER PROCESSING
	61.	Having regard to the State's desire for further processing of Product in the State, the Producers will investigate the storage and related processing of ethane for use as petrochemical feedstock in the State and the practicability of the construction and operation of a refinery in the region of Stony Point. The Producers in consultation with the State will provide to the State on or before 31st day of March 1983 information relating to the scope of their investigations and further on or before 31st day of March 1984 a detailed report in writing relating to the result of their investigations in this regard. The Producers from time to time will enter into discussions with the Minister concerning the utilisation of Product for those purposes.
In the event that the investigations do not lead to the projects contemplated by this clause the report will be reviewed every three years in the light of the then current circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Producers will, if further treating of Product in the State is technically and economically feasible, encourage and expedite such treatment and development. The Producers will give preference to treatment and development within the State if such is technically and economically feasible, providing that nothing in this clause will oblige the Producers to sell Product on other than commercial terms.
PART XIV
PROTECTION OF GAS SUPPLY
	62.	In carrying out the activities contemplated under this Indenture the Producers shall have regard to their obligations under existing and future sales agreements with PASA.
PART XV

Forthwith upon transfer the State shall pay the Producers a sum equal to the cost incurred by the Producers in the design and construction of the aforesaid facilities together with consultancy fees.
The facilities to be so transferred (hereinafter referred to as the "transferred facilities") shall be the Jetty trestle, platforms, mooring and breasting dolphins, all necessary service facilities and other facilities for the berthing of vessels at Stony Point, as detailed in the Producers' plans and specifications for the Marine Facilities accepted and approved by the Minister of Marine, but shall not include any temporary loading facilities or any pumps, pipes, loading arms and other loading facilities which shall be the subject of a separate licence agreement between the Producers and the Minister of Marine.
	64.	The Marine Facilities other than those transferred to the State pursuant to clause 63 of this Indenture, and the transferred facilities prior to transfer of ownership thereof to the State, shall be owned by the Producers or such of them as have an ownership interest therein from time to time.
	65.	The State shall ensure that the Producers have granted to them on reasonable terms and conditions and that there are continued in force during the currency of this Indenture free of charge to the Producers, all such rights and licences as may be required to enable the Producers or any of them to construct and install, operate and have the use and enjoyment of the Marine Facilities (including any temporary loading facilities required by the Producers) for the purposes contemplated by this Indenture, provided however that except as expressly provided in this Indenture, this Indenture shall not be deemed to confer any exemption from wharfage dues.
	66.	The Producers shall deposit with the State at a time and in a manner to be agreed a sum equal to the amount paid by the State to the Producers pursuant to clause 63 of this Indenture to secure the due observance by the Producers of the terms of this Part XV of this Indenture on their part to be observed and also to secure payment of the amounts due to be paid to the State by the Producers under this Part. To the extent of any shortfall in payment of amounts owing to the State pursuant to this Part in any year the Producers shall to that extent forfeit the moneys which would otherwise have been payable to the Producers pursuant to clause 67 of this Indenture.
	67.	The security deposit referred to in clause 66 of this Indenture together with interest thereon at the rate of 20 per centum per annum shall, subject to clause 66 be repaid by the State to the Producers annually calculated on a credit foncier system by twenty equal instalments in the manner to be provided for by agreement between the Producers and the State.
	68.	The Producers shall have priority of use of the transferred facilities. The manner in which the priority shall be effected shall be the subject of agreement with the State.
	69.	Without prejudice to the provisions of clause 68 of this Indenture, the Minister may in his discretion permit the use of the transferred facilities by third parties (being persons other than the Producers or any of them) subject to such use being compatible with the Producers' operations. In exercising his discretion the Minister shall have regard to:
	(1)	the full extent of the impact of the operations of the third parties including the potential for industrial disputes, shipping programmes, the number of workers and operations of any factories or fabrication works upon the Producers' operations, and
	(2)	the safety of and potential for damage to the Producers' operations from the third parties' products and operations.
	70.	The Producers shall during the first twenty years from and including the transfer date be responsible for the stevedoring and loading of vessels associated with the Marine Facilities referred to in clause 63 of this Indenture. Unless and to the extent otherwise agreed, mooring and unmooring of vessels shall be undertaken by the Producers' employees, agents or contractors, subject to industrial arrangements suitable to the State and the Producers being made and subject to the reasonable supervision and directions of the Harbor Master of the port at Stony Point having regard to normal port practice. The cost of such mooring and unmooring of vessels shall be paid by the State to the Producers at rates not to exceed those payable by the State to members of mooring gangs under appropriate industrial awards.
	71.	During 1982 the Producers shall in consultation with the State prepare terminal rules in respect of their onshore facilities at Stony Point and the State in addition to the Regulations under the laws of the State shall in consultation with the Producers prepare port rules.
	72.	
	(1)	In respect of each of the first twenty years from and including the year in which the transfer date occurs there shall be paid by the Producers to the State, wharfage dues (to the exclusion of all other wharfage dues that would otherwise be payable by the Producers for the port at Stony Point) being an amount per tonne of Product shipped determined by the following formula:—

Where
a = the annual amount required to amortise in 20 annual payments under a credit foncier system the sum specified in the second paragraph of clause 63 of this Indenture at an interest rate of 20 per centum per annum.
b = the amount determined for any third party user of the transferred facilities under sub-clause 72(2) or 72(3) of this clause for that year.
c and e = amounts of $1.50 and 70 cents respectively as adjusted each year by the percentage change in the Consumer Price Index between the December quarter 1981 and the December quarter in the year preceding the year in which the amounts are to apply.
d = the amount of throughput in tonnes across or through the transferred facilities by the Producers up to and including the first one million tonnes for each year.
f = the amount of throughput in tonnes, if any, across or through the transferred facilities by the Producers after and in excess of the first one million tonnes for each year.
g = the total amount of throughput in tonnes across or through the transferred facilities by the Producers during each year.
Provided always that:
	(i)	in respect of commodities passing across or through the transferred facilities that are shipped to another port in the State, the amounts c and e will be halved.
	(ii)	Subject to sub-clause 72(1)(c) below, the sum (c x d) + (e x f) in the above formula shall not be less than the amount determined by adjusting $1 500 000 by the indexation formula provided in the definitions of "c" and "e" in this sub-clause 72(1).
	(iii)	In the calendar year of transfer of the facilities the amount of $1 500 000 (as indexed) referred to in sub-clause 72(1)(b) above will be adjusted pro rata to reflect the number of calendar months (or part thereof) remaining after the transfer date in that year.
	(iv)	In the event that total throughput by the Producers for any year is zero, payment will be calculated as if throughput was one tonne.
	(v)	Should (a - b) in the wharfage calculation formula be a negative amount, zero is to be substituted.
	(2)	In the event of use of the said transferred facilities by third parties during the first twenty years from and including the transfer date the State and Producers will confer as to the appropriate contribution payable as a portion of wharfage dues to be paid by such third parties during the said period that shall be properly regarded as attributable to the provision of the transferred facilities pursuant to this Indenture. In determining such portion of the wharfage dues regard shall be had to the value and profitability of the commodity to be shipped by such third party over the transferred facilities, current interest rates and the value of the transferred facilities and the objectives reflected in clause 61 of this Indenture.
	(3)	In the event that the Producers and the State cannot reach an agreement under clause 72(2), the amount b in clause 72(1) of this Indenture shall be calculated as follows: a sum determined under a credit foncier system based on the capital cost of that part of the transferred facilities used by third parties (being the original capital cost of the transferred facilities together with interest incurred prior to the transfer date) escalated annually by half the bond rate (as hereinafter defined) from and including the transfer date amortized over a period of twenty years with a rate of interest of 20 per centum per annum apportioned by reference to the total units of throughput of the Producers and any third party. That part of the transferred facilities used by the third party means that portion of the total cost of the transferred facilities that is actually used by the third party. The calculation referred to herein shall, in the case of a third party which has a demonstrable continuity of use, be made only on the basis of escalation annually by half the bond rate up to the time of commencement of use.
	(4)	After the first twenty years from and including the transfer date the Producers shall pay the normal wharfage dues on commodities similar to those shipped by the Producers applicable in the State for use of the transferred facilities.
	(5)	The "bond rate" referred to in this clause 72 means the yield on long term Australian Government bonds in effect from time to time.
	73.	The wharfage dues the subject of clause 72 of this Indenture for the first twenty year period therein referred to shall be paid to the State by the Producers in the manner provided for by agreement between the Producers and the State.
	74.	From and including the transfer date the State shall promptly carry out and effect repair, maintenance and insurance of the transferred facilities and shall be responsible for the provision of a Harbor Master for the port at Stony Point so as to enable the Producers at all times to have use and enjoyment of the Marine Facilities for the purposes contemplated by this Indenture.
	75.	Prior to the transfer date:
	(1)	The Producers shall be responsible under the supervision and direction of the Harbor Master for operating temporary loading facilities, if any, which may have been constructed;
	(2)	The Producers shall pay for the maintenance and insurance of the said temporary loading facility;
	(3)	The Producers shall be responsible for the stevedoring and loading of vessels associated with the temporary loading facilities. Unless and to the extent otherwise agreed, mooring and unmooring of vessels shall be undertaken by the Producers' employees, agents or contractors, subject to industrial arrangements suitable to the State and the Producers being made and subject to the reasonable supervision and directions of the Harbor Master of the port at Stony Point having regard to normal port practice; and
	(4)	There shall be paid by the Producers to the State wharfage dues at the rate of 50 cents for each tonne of Product shipped.

CONDITIONS
	1.	—
	(i)	Terms and expressions defined in the Indenture (hereinafter defined) shall, where the context so admits or requires, have the same meanings in this licence; and
	(ii)	"The Indenture" means an Indenture of even date with this licence entered into between the State of the first part the Licensees (therein referred to as "the Producers") of the second to twelfth parts (both inclusive) and the Minister of the thirteenth part as the same may be varied or replaced from time to time.
	2.	The term of this licence is twenty-one years, commencing on the date hereof, and terminating at midnight on the 25th day of November, 2002, both dates inclusive, but subject always to renewals as provided in clause 52 of the Indenture.

	3.	—
	(i)	This licence is granted pursuant to the provisions of the Petroleum Act and all Acts passed in amendment thereof or in substitution therefor, and all regulations and by-laws made thereunder not inconsistent with the terms of the Indenture.
	(ii)	If the Stony Point (Liquids Project) Ratification Bill, 1981, is not passed so as to come into operation as an Act of the State before the 31st day of December 1981, or such later date as the parties to the Indenture may agree, in the same terms as those now contained in the Stony Point (Liquids Project) Ratification Bill, 1981 or in such other terms as the parties hereto otherwise may agree in writing, this Pipeline Licence shall lapse on and with effect from that date.
	4.	PASA shall acquire certain right, title and interest in certain lands between Moomba and Stony Point pursuant to and more particularly described in an agreement of even date herewith made between PASA and the Licensees described as the PASA and Producers (Right of Way) Agreement therein and herein described as the "pipeline land". The pipeline shall be constructed and installed within the boundaries of the pipeline land providing that the Licensees before causing construction and installation of the pipeline to commence shall request PASA to identify the position where the pipeline shall be installed so as not to cause damage to or interference with the operation of the existing natural gas pipeline owned by PASA. The Licensees shall comply with any relevant direction or instruction given by PASA as a result of the request under this Condition. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing the pipeline shall unless otherwise approved in writing by PASA be installed in such a position as not to be closer at any point than 20 metres to the western boundary of any land in relation to which PASA shall have a right, title or interest for any purpose in connection with the existing natural gas pipeline owned by PASA. Save as hereinbefore provided the pipeline route as nearly as possible shall be parallel to the existing natural gas pipeline owned by PASA, from Moomba to a point in the near vicinity of Compressor Station No. 4 on the said natural gas pipeline, thence south-westerly and southerly to a delivery point at a fractionation and storage facility to be constructed in the vicinity of Stony Point.
The plan annexed hereto described as Schedule 1 does not contain sufficient detail to identify the pipeline route otherwise than in general terms. Nothing contained in the said Schedule 1 is intended to derogate from these Conditions so far as concerns the position where the pipeline shall be installed, providing that the Licensees will confer with PASA as soon as practicable after the date of this licence with a view more precisely to identifying the position where the pipeline shall be installed.
	5.	Except as otherwise provided by these Conditions the pipeline shall be designed, constructed, installed, tested, maintained and operated in accordance with Australian Standard 2018–1981 (S.A.A. Liquid Petroleum Pipeline Code), supplemented by:—

	12.	The pipeline shall be submitted to a hydrostatic strength test for a period of four hours at a minimum pressure of 13 696 kilopascals and a maximum pressure of 14 416 kilopascals, and a hydrostatic leak test for a minimum period of 24 hours at a minimum pressure of 12 975 kilopascals and a maximum pressure of 13 696 kilopascals. Both the said tests shall be conducted in accordance with the requirements of Australian Standards 2018–1981 and 1978–1977.
	13.	Manuals described the operating and maintenance procedures specified by Australian Standard 2018–1981 and all revisions to such manuals shall be submitted by the Licensees to the Minister for his approval thereto and the Licensees, upon the manuals being approved by the Minister, shall comply with the operating and maintenance procedures specified therein. A review of such manuals may be required by the Minister from time to time.
	14.	No section of the pipeline shall be put into operation until all necessary hydrostatic testing, tie-ing in and backfilling of the trench has been completed to the satisfaction of the Minister, and the manuals describing the operating and maintenance procedures required in accordance with Condition 13 have been approved by the Minister.

	(ii)	Any purported assignment or transfer of the interest or part thereof of any individual Licensee pursuant to this licence shall be subject to the assignee or transferee executing in favour of the State and the Minister and the other Licensees a deed of covenant in a form to be agreed between the Minister and the Licensees to comply with, observe and perform the provisions of this licence on the part of the Licensees to be complied with, observed or performed in regard to the interest so assigned.
The Minister may require any person who acquires any interest whether legal or equitable in this licence by virtue of a transaction to which the Minister has consented under this Condition, to enter into a bond upon such terms and conditions and in such sum not exceeding $4 000 and to give such security for the satisfaction of the bond as he may stipulate.
	26.	Notwithstanding anything hereinbefore contained, if any one or more of the following events occurs, namely:
	(i)	If any of the Licensees makes default in the due payment of any moneys payable under this licence to the State or to anyone on its behalf or to any agency or instrumentality of the Crown and any such default remains unremedied for a period exceeding thirty days after notice specifying the default is given to the Licensees and to sub-Licensees (if any) and to all lenders of money to the Licensees or any of them who have been notified by the Licensees or any of them to the State in writing (such lenders, whether one or more, being hereinafter referred to as "the lenders") by the State; or
	(ii)	If any of the Licensees makes default in the due performance of any of its material covenants or obligations under this licence (not being a covenant or obligation of the kind referred to in sub-clause (i) of this Condition) and if the relevant Licensee fails to remedy or to commence and continue in good faith to remedy that default within a reasonable time after notice specifying the default is given to the Licensees and to sub-Licensees (if any) and to the lenders by the State
then and in any such events the Minister, after consultation with the Licensees, (and provided the Licensees not in default have agreed with the State to assume all of the obligations, including without limitation, obligations due and unsatisfied in respect of any antecedent breach of the Licensee or Licensees in default) may determine this licence in respect only of the Licensee or Licensees in default.
The rights and obligations of that defaulting Licensee or of those defaulting Licensees under this licence vis-a-vis the State and the Minister shall thereupon cease and shall ipso facto be assumed by and become the rights and obligations of the Licensees not in default but in all other respects the rights and obligations of the Licensees not in default under this licence shall be unaffected by such determination.
If the Licensees not in default do not agree with the State to assume the obligations of the Licensee or Licensees in default as aforesaid, or if all of the Licensees are in default under this licence then the State may cancel this licence.
