Tangible Assets; and
• Net Group Debt does not exceed 75% of the aggregate of Net Group Debt, Share
Capital and Retained Earnings as at 30 June and 31 December in each year,

Guarantors in accordance with the Deed of Guarantee (but subject to the grace
periods set out in the Deed of Guarantee) such that, immediately after those
subsidiaries become Guarantors, the aggregate Total Tangible Assets of SkyCity
and all Guarantors are not less than the Minimum TTA.

Credit Rating
Issuer Credit RatingIssue Credit Rating
S&P Global RatingsBBB- (Stable Outlook)BBB-
A credit rating is an independent opinion of the capability and willingness of any
entity to repay its debts (in other words, its creditworthiness). It is not a guarantee that
a financial product is a safe investment. A credit rating should be considered alongside
all other relevant information when making any investment decision. A credit rating is
not a recommendation by any rating organisation to buy, sell or hold Bonds. The above
issuer credit rating is current as at the date of this Terms Sheet and any credit rating
may be subject to suspension, revision or withdrawal at any time by the assigned
rating organisation.
GuaranteeThe Bonds will be guaranteed by the Guarantors under the Deed of Guarantee.
More information on the Guarantee can be found in section 5 of the PDS
(Key features of the Bonds).
SecurityThe Bonds are not secured against any asset of the SkyCity Group.
RankingOn a liquidation of SkyCity, the Bonds will rank equally with all other unsecured,
unsubordinated obligations of SkyCity and will rank:
• after all secured creditors (if any) and creditors preferred by law;
• equally with other Bondholders and equally among the rights and claims of
holders of equal ranking obligations (including the lenders of SkyCity’s bank debt
and the holders of the USPP Notes and all other unsecured obligations, including
trade creditors); and
• ahead of holders of subordinated debt (if any) and ahead of holders of Shares.
More information on the ranking of the Bonds is set out in section 5 of the PDS
(Key features of the Bonds).

Without limiting the generality of the above, the

each relevant jurisdiction:

SkyCity Entertainment Group Indicative Terms Sheet 10 May 2021
12
By applying for the Bonds under the PDS, each
person to whom the Bonds are issued will be
deemed by SkyCity and the Joint Lead Managers
to have undertaken not to on-sell the Bonds within
12 months from their issue, unless either:
• that sale is to an investor within one of the
categories set out in sections 708(8) or 708(11) of
the Corporations Act to whom it is lawful to offer
the Bonds in Australia without a prospectus or
other disclosure document lodged with ASIC; or
• the sale offer is received outside Australia.
The PDS is not, and under no circumstances is to be
construed as, an advertisement or public offering of
any Bonds in Australia.
(v) Hong Kong
WARNING: The PDS and any Terms Sheets
have not been, and will not be, registered as a
prospectus under the Companies (Winding Up
and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance (Cap. 32)
of Hong Kong, nor has it been authorised by the
Securities and Futures Commission in Hong Kong
pursuant to the Securities and Futures Ordinance
(Cap. 571) of the Laws of Hong Kong (the SFO). No
action has been taken in Hong Kong to authorise
or register the PDS or to permit the distribution of
the PDS or any documents (including any Terms
Sheet) issued in connection with it. Accordingly, the
Bonds have not been and will not be offered or sold
in Hong Kong other than to “professional investors”
(as defined in the SFO and any rules made under
that ordinance).
No advertisement, invitation or document relating
to the Bonds has been or will be issued, or has
been or will be in the possession of any person for
the purpose of issue, in Hong Kong or elsewhere
that is directed at, or the contents of which are
likely to be accessed or read by, the public of
Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under
the securities laws of Hong Kong) other than with
respect to Bonds that are or are intended to be
disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or
only to professional investors. No person allotted
Bonds may sell, or offer to sell, such securities in
circumstances that amount to an offer to the public
in Hong Kong within six months following the date
of issue of such securities.
The contents of the PDS or any Terms Sheet have
not been reviewed by any Hong Kong regulatory
authority. You are advised to exercise caution in
relation to the Offer. If you are in doubt about any
contents of the PDS or any Terms Sheet, you should
obtain independent professional advice.
(vi) Japan
The Bonds have not been and will not be registered
under Article 4, paragraph 1 of the Financial
Instruments and Exchange Act of Japan (Act No.
25 of 1948), as amended (the FIEA) pursuant to
an exemption from the registration requirements
applicable to a private placement of securities
to Qualified Institutional Investors (as defined
in and in accordance with Article 2, paragraph
3 of the FIEA and the regulations promulgated
thereunder). Accordingly, the Bonds may not be
offered or sold, directly or indirectly, in Japan or to,
or for the benefit of, any resident of Japan other
than Qualified Institutional Investors. Any Qualified
Institutional Investor who acquires Bonds may not
resell them to any person in Japan that is not a
Qualified Institutional Investor, and acquisition by
any such person of Bonds is conditional upon the
execution of an agreement to that effect.
Indemnity
By its subscription for the Bonds, each Bondholder
agrees to indemnify SkyCity, the Joint Lead
Managers and the Supervisor and each of their
respective directors, officers, employees and agents
for any loss, cost, liability or damages suffered
or incurred as a result of the breach by that
Bondholder of the selling restrictions set out above.
