Argosy Property Limited | Final Terms Sheet

IssuerArgosy Property Limited (“Argosy”)

InstrumentSenior secured fixed rate green bonds (“Green Bonds”)

Guarantors

The obligations of Argosy to pay interest on the Green Bonds and for the repayment of the

Green Bonds on the Maturity Date are guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of Argosy, being

Argosy Property Management Limited, Argosy Property No. 1 Limited and Argosy Property

No. 3 Limited (together, the "Guaranteeing Subsidiaries"). The Green Bonds are not guaranteed

by any other member of the Argosy Group or by any other person.

Security

The Green Bonds are secured by a general security interest granted by Argosy and the

Guaranteeing Subsidiaries over all of their property (except any property held by it as trustee),

together with first ranking Mortgages granted over all of the land (including the buildings and

other fixtures on that land) owned by them. The guarantee and security interests are granted in

favour of the Security Trustee for the benefit of all of the Secured Parties (including Holders)

and can only be enforced in accordance with the Security Trust Deed.

Refer to the PDS for more detail on Security.

Use of proceeds

The proceeds of the offer are intended to be used to refinance existing bank debt that supports

“Green Assets”. Green Assets are office, industrial or retail buildings, including upgrades,

owned or undertaken by members of the Argosy Group that meet certain criteria established

by Argosy in Argosy’s “Green Bond Framework” and therefore promote the transition to a

sustainable future. The funds from the Green Bonds may be internally allocated to other

Green Assets in accordance with the Green Bond Framework.

Argosy has developed and adopted the Green Bond Framework to ensure that, as at the date of

the PDS, the Green Bonds comply with the Green Bond Principles.

Refer to the PDS for more detail on Green Assets, the Green Bond Framework and the Green Bond

Principles.

No Event of Default in relation

to Green Bond Framework or

Green Bond Principles

If:

• Argosy fails to comply with the Green Bond Framework;

• Argosy or any Green Asset fails to comply with any environmental laws and standards;

• the Green Bonds cease to satisfy the Green Bond Principles, as described at Section 5.2

of the PDS; or

• Argosy fails to notify Holders that the Green Bonds cease to comply with the Green Bond

Framework or the Green Bond Principles,

then:

• no Event of Default will occur in relation to the Green Bonds; and

• neither the Holders nor Argosy have any right for the Green Bonds to be repaid early.

This means there is no obligation on Argosy to comply with the Green Bond Framework or

the Green Bond Principles on an ongoing basis.

Financial Covenant

Under the Trust Deed, Argosy will ensure that the total principal amount of all indebtedness

that is secured by the Secured Assets is no more than 50% of the Mortgaged Property Value.

If Argosy breaches the loan to value ratio under the Trust Deed, it must remedy the breach

within 6 months of the time that the non-compliance is required to be reported to the

Supervisor. If Argosy does not meet this covenant after that 6 month period, Argosy must

notify the Supervisor and all Holders of the breach, together with its plan to remedy the breach.

If Argosy is still in breach of this covenant after an additional 6 month period, an Event of

Default occurs.

Refer to the PDS and Trust Deed for more detail on the loan to value ratio.

Distribution stopper

Under the Trust Deed, Argosy will not make any distributions if an Event of Default has

occurred and is continuing, or would occur as a result of making that distribution.

Refer to the PDS and Trust Deed for more detail on the Events of Default.
