Dear Secretary,

The Owners – Strata Plan No 87368 v Ceerose Pty Ltd


Supreme Court of NSW Case No. 2020/00139969
Our Ref: CC:1721

We refer to the above matter and provide the following update and advice concerning the settlement
for the consideration of the owners corporation in a forthcoming general meeting.

Executive Summary

1. Legal proceedings in the Supreme Court are still on foot against the builder for monetary
damages to fix identified building defects. The builder has lodged a cross claim claimed against
its window and façade subcontractors for contribution towards any amount it may be ordered
to pay the owners corporation.

2. The owners corporation claim will most likely be heard in the Supreme Court early next year if
it cannot settle. At this stage the only defects to be litigated should be the combustible cladding
and leaking façade/window defects.

3. In relation to the cladding:

(a) The owners corporation has received a fee proposal from a new expert to prepare a
litigation-ready report which will note testing of all combustible panels, the relevant parts
of the Building Code of Australia and Australian Standards that have been breached, and
a scope of work to rectify the defects.

(b) The builder has made an offer to the owners corporation for the parties to enter into a
construction contract where the builder will undertake the replacement of all
combustible cladding in the building at the cost of $1.5million plus GST, being a reduction

in the market price to replace the cladding (the owners corporation has obtained ball park
figures for the replacement in excess of $4million).

4. In relation to the façade:

(a) The owners corporation has received a report from its expert to rectify the façade, but it
does not apply to all aspects of the façade and arguably only applies to one aspect of the
façade.

(b) The builder has offered to engage the owners corporation’s cladding expert at the cost of
the builder to conduct invasive investigations in each unit where there are leaking
windows, and then prepare scopes of work which will be performed by the builder at the
cost of the builder. The expert will then be used by the builder in their cross claim against
their subcontractors.

5. In relation to other defects, it is understood that the builder has been attending to them on a
consistent basis and will continue to do so. Given the attitude of the builder, we do not consider
it likely that these defects will be litigated in the Supreme Court proceedings.

6. Project remediate has accepted a claim from the owners corporation. We do not know the status
of the claim with them at the time of writing this letter.

Supreme Court proceedings – owners corporation claim

The owners corporation is seeking monetary damages from the builder for the cost of rectifying
identified building defects.

The proceedings are next listed in Court on 22 September 2023. The Court previously agreed to adjourn
the matter to enable the parties to entertain settlement discussions. In the proceedings,

The most significant defects are the combustible cladding and the leaking façade/ windows. These
were detailed in our last update letters to the owners corporation on 29 November 2022 and 4 May
2023. The position of the owners corporation in relation to the evidence it will rely upon at the final
hearing of the legal proceedings remains the same, namely that the owners corporation needs to have
a litigation compliant façade defects report and cladding defects report, which investigates and reports
on every defect claim.

The builder’s offer to settle the claim

The builder’s last offer was made on 11 August 2023 and is contained in a proposed deed of settlement
and a construction contract for cladding replacement. We have attached a copy of the draft deed. A
copy of the proposed cladding contract and associated documents may be accessed by clicking here.

The settlement proposal is summarised as follows:

1. The builder will perform works to address all the defects identified in a schedule of defects,
which contain a scope of work. These include the façade and cladding defects, as well as a small
amount of outstanding general defects. All defect work must be completed within 12 months,
and the builder will pay for requisite development or other consents.

2. In relation to the façade defects, the schedule of defects and scope will not apply for the scope
of works to be carried out. Instead:
3

(a) The builder and the owners corporation’s facade expert will perform destructive
investigations.

(b) The façade expert will prepare a scope of work in consultation with the builder.

(c) The builder must undertake the scope of works and will complete the works within 12
months.

(d) All costs (including the cost of rectification and the cost of the façade expert) will be met
by the builder.

(e) The builder may use the façade expert as their expert in their cross-claim against their
subcontractors.

3. In relation to the cladding defects, the schedule of defects will also not apply for the scope of
works to be carried out. Instead:

(a) The builder and the owners corporation will enter into a construction contract to replace
all combustible cladding identified in the drawings attached to the draft contract.

(b) The owners corporation will pay the builder $1.5 million plus GST for the work.

(c) The builder will complete the work within 12 months.

(d) If there is any overlap with the façade defect work that occasions a variation of the
contract or delay, the owners corporation will not be liable to pay any additional amounts,
noting that the scope of work for the façade defects is to prevail to the extent of any
inconsistency.

4. The Supreme Court proceedings will be dismissed with each party to pay their own costs.

Should the owners corporation accept the offer?

At this stage, the owners corporation is the only party in this dispute that has obtained any evidence
in support of its claim of building defects. Accordingly, it is difficult to advise the owners corporation
of the benefit of accepting a settlement on the terms proposed by the builder. Nevertheless, we make
the following comments:

1. There does not appear to be any dispute in relation to the other general defects, with the builder
agreeing to rectify any outstanding items. These defect form part of the proposed deed and will
need to be rectified by the builder within 12 months of the deed being executed.

2. The proposal for the owners corporation’s expert and the builder to undertake a destructive
investigation of all façade leaks and for the owners corporation’s expert to prepare a scope
which must be performed by the builder within a year is sensible for the following reasons:

(a) There will be no cost to the owners corporation for the destructive investigations, the
preparation of a scope of work, or the conduct of the work (which must be completed
within a year).
4

(b) The cost of investigating each façade defect for use in the proceedings will be significant
and must be borne by the owners corporation (which can be claimed against the builder
in the Supreme Court proceedings). For example, e have received a quote from Mr Peter
Lalas, a façade expert who has estimated a cost of $70,950 exclusive of GST to undertake
inspections and prepare a report that can be used in the Supreme Court proceedings for
the facade defects. This does not include the cost of erecting and scaffolding, which may
be required in order for the expert to undertake his investigations.

(c) The owners corporation will have its expert prepare the scope of work, rather than the
builder (though we note the façade expert will have to consult with the builder). The
scope will have to be prepared to address the defects in accordance with the law,
including the Building Code of Australia and relevant Australian Standards.

(d) It is likely that some of the façade rectification work will also involve the replacement of
combustible cladding. To the extent the owners corporation settles all its claims except
the cladding defects it may have the benefit of some cladding being replaced as part of
the scope of work for the façade defects. Enquiries should be made with Belmont to
confirm.

(e) While there is a risk that the façade expert will not produce a scope that is satisfactory or
will address the identified defects, such a risk is remote in our view. In any event, the
owners corporation may have recourse to their professional indemnity insurance.

(f) The owners corporation previously engaged Belmont Façade Engineering to undertake
some destructive investigations and prepare a scope of rectification work of one or two
of the lots in the scheme. The builder previously indicated that they were not prepared to
pay the proposed costs of Belmont for acting on behalf of the owners corporation in
relation to the proposed settlement, given that Belmont significantly increased their
estimate and hourly rate. The builder suggested the owners corporation engaging Mr
George Zakos as an expert and we agreed with this suggestion given his experience and
acceptance as an expert by the Courts and Tribunals. We have managed to obtain a fee
proposal from Mr Zakos and he has confirmed that while he acts as experts for builders
including Ceerose, he also acts for owners and owners corporation and is entirely
independent.

(g) The works must be completed within 12 months of signing the deed. We doubt that the
owners corporation will be in a position in 12 month’s time where it can conduct the
works after the conclusion of the Supreme Court proceedings (assuming the owners
corporation is successful in those proceedings)

3. It is difficult to advise whether the proposal in relation to the cladding defects should be
accepted, as there is no evidence from the builder opposing the evidence obtained by the
owners corporation as to the combustibility of the cladding to date and whether there has been
a breach of the warranties in the Home Building Act 1989, even though such reports will have to
be updated if the owners corporation decides to pursue this part of the claim in the Supreme
Court proceedings. Nevertheless, we made the following comments:

(a) We note the owners corporation has already obtained a “ballpark” estimate from a
cladding contractor as to the cost of replacing he combustible cladding, which is in excess
of $4million. It therefore appears that the offer from the builder to replace the
combustible cladding is less than half the market rate.
5

(b) The owners corporation will be receiving new warranties in relation to the cladding work
as it is a new construction contract, rather than the rectification of defects under warranty
(like the façade and other defects).

(c) Resolving this aspect of the claim (as well as the entirety of the claim) will remove the
uncertainty, cost, and protracted nature of continuing to litigate the Supreme Court
proceedings. However, the cost of litigating this aspect of the claim will be significantly
less that the cost of entering into the proposed contract with the builder.

(d) Amendments will have to be made to the contract to better protect the owners
corporation, particularly in relation to the ownership of the cladding material and
progress payments to the builder.

(e) There is a risk that the works will not be conducted satisfactorily, though we would
recommend that a cladding expert is appointed to supervise the works (which should not
be at the cost of the owners corporation, given the terms of the draft deed).

(f) The works must be completed within 12 months of signing the contract. We doubt that
the owners corporation will be in a position in 12 month’s time where it can conduct the
works after the conclusion of the Supreme Court proceedings (assuming the owners
corporation is successful in those proceedings)

4. In relation to costs:

(a) The owners corporation has incurred about $50,000 in legal costs in this dispute to date,
and we estimate a further $150,000 in legal costs if the owners corporation decides to
prosecute its claim in the Supreme Court to a final hearing and judgement.

(b) We do not know what the owners corporation has spent to date on its experts as the
owners corporation has arranged for payment to them directly. For the purposes of this
advice, we estimate it has spent $100,000. We estimate that the cost of conducting an
investigation of every cladding and façade defect and preparing litigation-ready reports
to be a further $250,000, on the assumption that the owners corporation will need to
install scaffolding to undertake the investigations.

(c) If the owners corporation is successful in its legal proceedings (i.e. it receives a final
judgment from the Supreme Court in its favour), then generally, it will be awarded its
costs, and can expect to recover between 60% and 80% of the actual costs spent. This is
of course, subject to the builder being able to meet such a judgment (e.g., by not going
into liquidation).

(d) Therefore, the total estimate of costs to judgment is $550,000, and if the owners
corporation is successful and a costs order is made in its favour, it can expect to recover
between $330,000 and $440,000 from the builder, meaning the owners corporation will
be out of pocket between $110,000 and $220,000 (at this stage it is out of pocket
$150,000, based on our estimate).

Project Remediate

We note the owners corporation has registered with Project Remediate and have been requested to
provide documents. Please let us know if the owners corporation requires any assistance from us to
respond.
6

Project remediate is a voluntary government run program to replace combustible cladding in class 2
residential buildings (like those buildings in strata plan 87368). It offers an interest free loan to replace
cladding, which will be compliant and certified, and assistance from experts on the government panel.

Given that the market cost of replacing the combustible cladding will be in excess of $4million, it
appears that the offer from the builder to enter into a new contract is more commercial, even though
they are not offering any interest free loans to fund the works.

Council fine

Council re-issued a fine on the owners corporation for failing to provide a scope of cladding
replacement works to council. We are instructed that a strata committee member is addressing this
with Council in an attempt to have the fine withdrawn.

Next steps

We look forward to discussing the above at the forthcoming meeting of the owners corporation.

Please let us know if the owners corporation has any questions.

Yours faithfully

Estimate of Professional Fees and Disbursements

Please note the following includes costs already incurred by the owners corporation

On our present instructions, we estimate the cost of the work, inclusive of GST, to be:

Professional Fees: $ 112,873.70


of which $62,873.70 has already been incurred by the owners corporation

Disbursements: $ 275,000.00
of which $100,000.00 has already been incurred by the owners corporation

TOTAL $ 387,873.70

Please note that this is an estimate only and not a fixed quotation. The total costs may exceed the
estimate. While the estimate is based on present information and instructions and our current
understanding from you as to what services are required, our costs may exceed the estimate, for
example, if further information becomes available or circumstances change which affect your
matter. In this event, we will provide you with a revised estimate as soon as practicable. Where
there is a significant change in your matter then as far as possible we will advise you of the impact
of the change on the legal costs.

Professional Fees

We will charge you:

(a) $500 per hour for professional fees for work we do (excluding GST);

(b) $150 per hour for paralegal or secretarial work we do (excluding GST).

The solicitor with principal responsibility for assisting you in this matter is Colin Cunio.
3

You will be proportionately charged for work involving periods less than an hour. Our charges are
structured in six minute units. For example, the time charged for an attendance of up to six minutes
will be one unit and the time charged for an attendance between six and 12 minutes will be two units.

Our rates are reviewed on a regular basis and may change during the course of your matter. In relation
to lengthy matters this may impact upon our cost estimates (which may be revised accordingly). You
will be given 30 days’ notice in writing of any changes to our charge out rates.

Internal Expenses

We may incur internal expenses in carrying out your instructions. You will be responsible for internal
expenses, as follows (excluding GST):

(a) Black and white photocopying: 50¢ per page

(b) Colour photocopying: $1 per page

(c) Document scanning: No charge

(d) Any facsimile transmission: At cost

(e) Mobile, national and international telephone calls: At cost

(f) Archiving fee (payable at start of your matter): $50

(g) Travel (please note this is additional to the hourly fee rate): $1.50 per km

Disbursements

We may incur disbursements (being money which we pay or are liable to pay to others on your behalf).

Disbursements may include search fees, court or tribunal filing fees, process server fees, witness
expenses, travel expenses, transcript expenses, external bulk photocopying and image scanning fees,
clerk lodgement of document fees, couriers and postage, bank charges, and barrister’s fees.

Where you instruct us to brief a barrister or other expert and they provide a disclosure and costs
agreement we will provide this to you.

Variables that may impact on the estimate

Some of the variables which may affect and change the costs estimate include:

(a) The number and duration of telephone calls or other communications;

(b) Your prompt and efficient response to requests for information or instructions;

(c) Whether your instructions are varied;

(d) Whether documents have to be revised in light of varied instructions;

(e) The lawyer or other persons with whom we deal and the level of co-operation of the lawyer’s
clients and other persons involved;
4

(f) Changes in the law; and

(g) The complexity or uncertainty concerning legal issues affecting your matter.

Costs Payable and Recoverable on Litigation Outcome

Litigation is generally protracted and expensive. We will never guarantee any outcome in any
litigation.

Even if you are successful in proceedings and have a costs order in your favour it is unlikely that you
will recover all of the costs you must pay us from another party. If you do have a costs order in you
favour, it may still be necessary to seek to enforce such costs order e.g. through the assessment
system. This can be time consuming and costly. The possible costs associated with such potential
enforcement proceedings are not dealt with in this document, but we will advise you of them should
the relevant circumstances arise. It is also possible that you will be unable to recover the costs from
the other party (for example, if the party goes into liquidation or becomes bankrupt); nonetheless you
will still have to pay us.

If you lose the litigation, then it is likely that you will have to pay the costs of the other party - either
an amount you can both agree on or if no agreement can be reached then an amount of costs assessed
by a costs assessor as payable. However, a Court or Tribunal always has a discretion in relation to
costs orders.

Acceptance of Costs Agreement

You may accept this offer in writing, by signing the acknowledgement on the next page, or by
continuing to instruct us. If you accept this offer, you are taken to have entered into a costs agreement
with us. This means you will be bound by the terms and conditions set out in this document and our
General Terms of Business, including those that relate to billing.

Failure to accept our offer within 14 days of the date of this document may result in the immediate
withdrawal of our offer to act on your behalf.

Where this cost agreement is addressed to more than one party, those parties are jointly and severally
bound by it. A party who does not intend to be bound by this costs agreement must advise us in
writing. In those circumstances, we reserve the right to decline to act further or at all for the remaining
parties.

Professional Fees: $ 162,873.70


of which $62,873.70 has already been incurred by the owners corporation

Disbursements: $ 400,000.00
of which $100,000.00 has already been incurred by the owners corporation

TOTAL $ 562,873.70

Please note that this is an estimate only and not a fixed quotation. The total costs may exceed the
estimate. While the estimate is based on present information and instructions and our current
understanding from you as to what services are required, our costs may exceed the estimate, for
example, if further information becomes available or circumstances change which affect your
matter. In this event, we will provide you with a revised estimate as soon as practicable. Where
there is a significant change in your matter then as far as possible we will advise you of the impact
of the change on the legal costs.

Professional Fees

We will charge you:

(a) $500 per hour for professional fees for work we do (excluding GST);

(b) $150 per hour for paralegal or secretarial work we do (excluding GST).

The solicitor with principal responsibility for assisting you in this matter is Colin Cunio.

You will be proportionately charged for work involving periods less than an hour. Our charges are
structured in six minute units. For example, the time charged for an attendance of up to six minutes
will be one unit and the time charged for an attendance between six and 12 minutes will be two units.
3

Our rates are reviewed on a regular basis and may change during the course of your matter. In relation
to lengthy matters this may impact upon our cost estimates (which may be revised accordingly). You
will be given 30 days’ notice in writing of any changes to our charge out rates.

Internal Expenses

We may incur internal expenses in carrying out your instructions. You will be responsible for internal
expenses, as follows (excluding GST):

(a) Black and white photocopying: 50¢ per page

(b) Colour photocopying: $1 per page

(c) Document scanning: No charge

(d) Any facsimile transmission: At cost

(e) Mobile, national and international telephone calls: At cost

(f) Archiving fee (payable at start of your matter): $50

(g) Travel (please note this is additional to the hourly fee rate): $1.50 per km

Disbursements

We may incur disbursements (being money which we pay or are liable to pay to others on your behalf).

Disbursements may include search fees, court or tribunal filing fees, process server fees, witness
expenses, travel expenses, transcript expenses, external bulk photocopying and image scanning fees,
clerk lodgement of document fees, couriers and postage, bank charges, and barrister’s fees.

Where you instruct us to brief a barrister or other expert and they provide a disclosure and costs
agreement we will provide this to you.

Variables that may impact on the estimate

Some of the variables which may affect and change the costs estimate include:

(a) The number and duration of telephone calls or other communications;

(b) Your prompt and efficient response to requests for information or instructions;

(c) Whether your instructions are varied;

(d) Whether documents have to be revised in light of varied instructions;

(e) The lawyer or other persons with whom we deal and the level of co-operation of the lawyer’s
clients and other persons involved;

(f) Changes in the law; and

(g) The complexity or uncertainty concerning legal issues affecting your matter.

Costs Payable and Recoverable on Litigation Outcome

Litigation is generally protracted and expensive. We will never guarantee any outcome in any
litigation.

Even if you are successful in proceedings and have a costs order in your favour it is unlikely that you
will recover all of the costs you must pay us from another party. If you do have a costs order in you
favour, it may still be necessary to seek to enforce such costs order e.g. through the assessment
system. This can be time consuming and costly. The possible costs associated with such potential
enforcement proceedings are not dealt with in this document, but we will advise you of them should
the relevant circumstances arise. It is also possible that you will be unable to recover the costs from
the other party (for example, if the party goes into liquidation or becomes bankrupt); nonetheless you
will still have to pay us.

If you lose the litigation, then it is likely that you will have to pay the costs of the other party - either
an amount you can both agree on or if no agreement can be reached then an amount of costs assessed
by a costs assessor as payable. However, a Court or Tribunal always has a discretion in relation to
costs orders.

Acceptance of Costs Agreement

You may accept this offer in writing, by signing the acknowledgement on the next page, or by
continuing to instruct us. If you accept this offer, you are taken to have entered into a costs agreement
with us. This means you will be bound by the terms and conditions set out in this document and our
General Terms of Business, including those that relate to billing.

Failure to accept our offer within 14 days of the date of this document may result in the immediate
withdrawal of our offer to act on your behalf.

Where this cost agreement is addressed to more than one party, those parties are jointly and severally
bound by it. A party who does not intend to be bound by this costs agreement must advise us in
writing. In those circumstances, we reserve the right to decline to act further or at all for the remaining
parties.

Explanatory Note: - The building and external walls need re-painting. The
concrete render is starting to delaminate. On all the external walls, there is
a rough finish. That finish is concrete which coats a brick wall. The concrete
layer is then painted. As the paint weathers, water begins to penetrate
the concrete render and lifts it off the brick wall. This leads to hairline cracks
we see in the walls around the building. It starts as cracks but eventually,
the concrete render will flake off in chunks. The solution to this problem is
the render must be painted regularly to prevent too much moisture from
penetrating the render. Please note this was confirmed by both Ceerose and
RHM as we walked around the building. The meeting is to discuss and
resolve how best to proceed.

15. ANNUAL FIRE SAFETY STATEMENT:

15.1 That the Owners Corporation:

(a) consider the existing annual fire safety statement (if one is required

next annual fire safety statement (if one is required for the building);

and

(d) authorise and direct either Change Strata Management, the building
manager or appropriate consultant to sign and lodge with the local
council, and give a copy to the NSW Fire Commissioner of, the next
annual fire safety statement on behalf of the Owners Corporation.

Explanatory Note: - this motion, if carried, authorises the Owners Corporation,


through Change Strata Management, to lodge an annual fire safety statement
with the Local Council and send a copy to the NSW Fire Commissioner.

If there is a fire safety schedule specifying the fire safety measures (both

(c) if the unpaid contributions and interest remain unpaid after a further

11. BUILDING DEFECTS:

11.1 NOTED that the Owners Corporation discussed defects at the building and
note that there has been progress lately primarily with the engagement
Bellmont Engineering (“Bellmont”) as Façade Consultants to address the
water penetration defects at the building. Bellmont have engaged Remedial
Building Services Australia (“RBSA”) to assist with testing in unit 52 in
accordance with the proposed Schedule. Bellmont have also written directly
to the builder, Ceerose inviting them to attend to inspect what they have
done and to agree on a proposed Schedule of Works to address this
significant defect.

NOTED that at the time of the meeting the engaged Engineer, RHM had not
finalised their report (since received). The Strata Committee and engaged
Lawyer, Strata Specialist Lawyers have reviewed the report and made their
relevant comments on the report.
MINUTES OF AN ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING
THE OWNERS – STRATA PLAN NO. 87638

ADDRESS OF THE STRATA SCHEME: DNA


5 PYRMONT BRIDGE ROAD, CAMPERDOWN

NOTED that Strata Specialist Lawyers are also finalising the final cladding
report which needs to be submitted to Council by 8 January, 2021. (See
motion 12 below)

NOTED Strata Specialist Lawyers have also been in discussions with the
lawyers for Ceerose on several occasions and advise that there is currently
“no utility in meeting with the builder to discuss defects, the nature of which
is not yet finalised or fully particularised.”

NOTED that the next steps in the process involves the Owners Corporation
finalising its evidence (will involve Bellmont, RHM and the Fire Engineer
finalising their reports, and then a Quantity Surveyor estimate the cost of
rectification of defects). During that process, the builder should be given an
opportunity to attend the site to fix the defects – a formal request can be
made once all defects reports are finalised. If the value of the defects the
builder will not fix is more than $500,000, then the proceedings should be
transferred from NSW Civil & Administrative tribunal (“NCAT”) where they
currently are, to a court with appropriate jurisdiction. Given the status of
the evidence of the Owners Corporation at present (in particular the leaking
façade defect), it appears unlikely the matter will be ready for a hearing on
15 February, 2021 even if the value of the defects at the time is less than
$500,000.

NOTED that the Owners Corporation remain committed to finalising their


reports and maintaining continual dialogue with the builder, Ceerose, with
the intention and preference of having a finalised Deed with the builder
once all defects have been agreed to, quantified and a Schedule of Works
agreed to.

12. CLADDING:

12.1 NOTED that the Owners Corporation discussed the presence of combustible
cladding at the building and note that the cladding forms part of the
building defects claim referred to under motion 12.

NOTED that Council has also issued a Fire Order which the Owners
Corporation are addressing. Strata Specialist Lawyers are finalising the final
cladding report which needs to be submitted to Council by 8 January, 2021.

Corporation and lodge with WorkCover an application to register or

AUTHORITY WITH NO LIMITATIONS.

2.3 The parties acknowledge that:

(a) the delegation to the agent in clause 2.1 does not:

3. Fees and charges

3.1 The owners corporation must pay to the agent in accordance with the fee payment method:

(a) the agreed services fee; and

(b) the additional services fee for any additional services performed by the agent; and

(c) the charges associated with the performance of the agreed services and any additional services.

6. Liability of the agent and exclusions

6.1 The agent is liable to the owners corporation:

(a) only for services actually supplied or that should have been supplied under this agreement; and

(b) on the terms of this clause 6.

6.2 The agent is excluded from all liability for any claim, liability or loss arising directly or indirectly out of the services or additional services or arising from any
cause of action whatsoever except to the extent that the claim, liability or loss is caused or contributed to by the agent’s wilful breach of this
agreement, gross negligence, dishonesty or fraud. The owners corporation agrees that it will at all times indemnify the agent against all actions, suits,
proceedings, costs, claims, expenses or demands which may arise in the course of or as a result of the agent’s management of the scheme, including
all legal expenses incurred by the agent in defence of or initiation of any legal proceedings as well as any excess payable under the agent’s
professional indemnity insurance;

(a) by third parties against the agent;

(b) by the owners corporation against the agent arising before, during or after this agreement.

6.3 The agent’s maximum liability to the owners corporation for any breach of this agreement, or arising out of the provision or non provision
of the agreed services or the additional services or by taking steps contrary to this agreement, whether under law of contract, tort or
otherwise, is limited to the amount of the agreed services fees for the year in which the liability arose.

6.4 The agent is deemed to be discharged from all liability in respect of the agreed services and the additional services, whether under the law
of contract, tort or otherwise, at the expiration of two years from the date of the act or omission giving rise to the liability, and the owners
corporation (and persons claiming through or under the owners corporation) shall not be entitled to commence any action or claim against the
agent in respect of that act or omission after that date.

6.5 Clauses 6.1, 6.2, 6.3, 6.4 and 6.5 apply to the extent permitted by law.

6.6 The owners corporation must indemnify the agent immediately on demand against any matter for which the agent has no liability to the
owners corporation including in respect of the matters referred to in clause 6.2 and 6.3.

7. Transfer of the agreement

7.1 The agent cannot transfer the agreement without the written consent of the owners corporation, which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld if the agent satisfies the owners corporation that the proposed transferee and related persons are fit and proper persons and
have the qualifications, competence and experience to perform the agreed services and additional services at an agreed services fee and an
additional services fee not greater than the current agreed services fee and additional services fee.

7.2 The owners corporation must advise the agent of its decision whether to approve a proposed transfer within 28 days after receiving from
the agent the information reasonably necessary to make the decision.

7.3 If the owners corporation approves the transfer, the owners corporation, the agent and the transferee must enter into a transfer
agreement, or alternatively if the agent elects to enter into a new agency agreement then clause 7.4 will apply.

7.4 After the transfer agreement has been entered into or, if an election has been made by the agent under clause 7.3, the new agent must
request that the owners corporation enter into a new agency agreement and the owners corporation must advise the new agent of its decision to enter
into a new agency agreement within 28 days after such request, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld if the new agency agreement is on the
same terms as this agreement, or on terms not less favourable to the owners corporation as this agreement. The new agent must pay the reasonable cost
of preparing the new agency agreement, preparing and holding the meetings of the strata committee and the general meeting of the owners corporation,
however if the meeting relates to more than approval of the minutes of the last meeting and the resolution relating to the new agency agreement, then
the new agent must pay the proportionate share of the total cost relating to approval of the new agency agreement.

8. Service of notices

8.1 Any notice to be served under the agreement:

decrease so that the agent receives the same GST exclusive payment as it received before the change in the rate of GST.

INTRODUCTION

REPORT SUMMARY

We have estimated that the Sinking Fund Levies as proposed in this report will be adequate to
accumulate sufficient funds to meet anticipated long term costs, with essentially only an adjustment
for inflation being required.

We recommend that the Sinking Fund Report be regularly updated to ensure that an accurate
assessment of how the scheme land, building and facilities are aging and to incorporate into the
Report any major changes brought about by legislation, or pricing.

The Sinking Fund Levy per entitlement already set is: $8.80
Number of Lot/Unit Entitlements: 10000
Opening Balance: $63,000.00
The proposed Sinking Fund Levy per entitlement is: $10.49

QIA Group Pty Ltd ‐3‐


5 Pyrmont Bridge Road 30 January 2015

METHODOLOGY

The nominal forecast period of this report is 15 years and the costs anticipated during each of the
years are detailed line by line on a yearly basis. The nominal time frame of the Report is to a large
extent driven by the fact that many elements in a building's structure have a life beyond 10 years.
Therefore an amount has been taken up for each item that would require replacement or substantial
repair outside of the 15 year forecast period to account for these anticipated expenses. However,
the manner in which the scheme land, buildings and facilities actually age cannot be accurately
determined without regular inspections which take into account the size, location and use of the
scheme.

The levy income has been determined by forecasting the expenditure requirement to replace or
renew assets or finishes that have an effective life and making an allowance for items that do not
have a finite lifespan. The levy income is initially increased each year by a variable inflationary factor
to smooth the effects of major cost fluctuations given the initial fund balance and income.

Interest receivable on the Sinking Fund Account has been accounted for in the calculation of funds
available at a rate of 0%.The Interest receivable amount has been determined by using a net rate of
0% on the fund balance at the end of the preceding financial year and makes an allowance for
possible bank charges and tax obligations which may arise. Where the rate is set to 0% it is not
anticipated that sufficient interest will be accrued.

Future replacement costs have been calculated by assessing the current replacement cost for each
item to a standard the same or better than the original. These anticipated costs are increased each
year at a rate of 5.2% per annum, this rate is reflective of building price indices which are historically
higher than the general inflation rate. A contingency of 10% per annum has been applied to
anticipated costs and it is applied to each individual cost in the year the cost (e.g. painting) is
expected to occur (e.g. 2008), the contingency rate is not an annual compounding cost.

The effective life for each item identified is based on its material effective life, therefore no
consideration has been made for the economic life of plant, equipment, finishes or upgrades.

No allowance has been made for buildings Registered for Goods and Services Tax (GST) and GST will
need to be applied to the levies proposed in this report.

This report assumes that all plant and equipment will be maintained under comprehensive

REPORT INFORMATION

The values included in the report are for budgeting purposes and have been obtained from a
number of sources including building cost information guides, painting contractors, plant and
equipment suppliers, manufactures and installers and working knowledge of each buildings
configuration at the time of inspection.

Every endeavour has been undertaken to accurately estimate the costs of the items identified in this
report, however if there items were put to tender, it would be expected that the quotations would
vary quite significantly and it is recommended that several quotations are sourced as far in advance
of any anticipated work as possible.

The estimated life of each item is made at the time of the site inspection and the life cycles of each
of the items having regard to where the building is located, as buildings in a salt environment tend to
have a lesser life cycle and a higher maintenance requirement.

This sinking fund is not a building condition survey. We recommend that a periodic survey be carried
out by qualified building contractors to assess the building condition, if required. The inspection of
the common property of the scheme is a visual inspection only limited to those areas of the common
property that are fully accessible and visible to the inspector from floor or ground level at the time
of inspection. The inspection did not include breaking apart, dismantling, removing or moving any
element of the building and items located on the common property.

The report does not and cannot make comment upon: defects that may have been concealed; the
assessment of which may rely on certain weather conditions; the presence or absence of timber
pests; gas fittings; heritage concerns; fire protection; site drainage; security concerns; detection and
identification of illegal building work; durability of exposed finishes; the roof space and sub‐floor
space.

The inspector did not identify and assess safety hazards and did not carry out a risk assessment
relating to any hazards upon the common property as part of this report. This report is not an
Asbestos report and no assessment was made of asbestos products.

AREAS NOT INSPECTED

 Part or parts of the common property building interior that were not readily accessible
