COmmOnWEalTh PROPERTy OffICE fund
About Commonwealth Property Office Fund
C ommonwealth Property Office Fund is an office sector-specific A-REIT, with a mandate to invest in prime-quality office buildings located in CBDs and major suburban markets in Australia. At June 30 2013 the fund’s property portfolio comprised 25 office
properties located across Australia – 19 of which are located in the major office markets in Sydney and Melbourne – and total gross assets of A$3.8 billion.
OwnershipCommonwealth Property Office Fund was listed on the Australian Securities Exchange in April 1999 under the code CPA. It is managed by Colonial First State Property Limited.
Liquidity positionThe fund actively manages its interest-rate exposure, with a hedging policy targeting 65-85% of interest-bearing debt to be hedged for the first year. Effective from July 1 2012, Commonwealth Property Office Fund will distribute 70-80% of funds from operations or the fund’s taxable income – whichever is the greater – for any financial period. The balance will be used to fund building maintenance capital expenditure, fit-out and cash incentives and leasing commissions.
Debt fundingCommonwealth Property Office Fund had undrawn debt facilities of A$345 million at June 30 2013. The fund’s debt consists of an unsecured A$1 billion MTN/CP programme, A$200 million of convertible notes, three USPPs totalling US$200 million, and A$500 million in committed bank facilities.
The fund is in regular contact with its lenders to appraise funding options. Financial covenants for all debt facilities include a loan-to-value ratio (LVR) of less than 45% and a minimum interest cover ratio of 2 times. At June 30 2013 the LVR was 28.6% and the interest coverage was 4.4 times. USPP debtholders are protected from a change of control, while the MTN holders are not. MTN holders benefit from a cross-default clause. •

dBP
About DBP
D BP is the trading name of the privately-owned group of entities which own and operate the Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline (DBNGP) – the key gas transmission pipeline in Western Australia (WA). The 1,530-kilometre mainline connects the extensive
offshore North West Shelf gas fields from Dampier with the population centres and industry in the south-west of the state through to Bunbury.
DBP’s core business is the operation, maintenance and expansion of the pipeline. Most revenue is derived through long-term contracted capacity of the pipeline to various large and dominant industrial and retail end users in WA.
The pipeline was commissioned in 1985 and has an estimated remaining economic life of at least 50 years. The asset has a strong safety and performance track record and the series of expansion projects under the ownership of DBP has ensured that the pipeline’s capacity remains aligned with the gas needs of the state of WA. The owners’ commitment to meeting the needs of customers in WA is ongoing.
DBP is required to operate the pipeline under an access arrangement approved by the Economic Regulatory Authority (ERA) of WA. The ERA is WA’s independent economic regulator. The access arrangement sets out the basis for accessing spare uncontracted capacity on the pipeline, including the terms and conditions of such access. To date DBP has only expanded capacity on the DBNGP to meet contracted demand.
OwnershipDBP’s shareholders are DUET Group (80 per cent) and Alcoa of Australia (Alcoa) (20 per cent). DUET Group is an Australian Securities Exchange-listed owner of energy utility assets in Australia. Alcoa operates the largest integrated bauxite mining and alumina refining operations in the world,

Michael Allan General Manager, Finance and Information Technology+61 8 9223 [email protected]
comprising two bauxite mines and three alumina refineries in WA. The gas used to support these operations makes Alcoa the biggest single user of pipeline capacity on the DBNGP.
Liquidity positionDBP has stable and predictable operating cash flows that involve long-dated shipper contracts with creditworthy counterparties. As of June 30 2013 DBP had in place a A$20 million working capital facility, A$17 million in cash at hand and A$60 million undrawn capacity in syndicated debt facilities.
Debt fundingDBP’s finance arm is DBNGP Finance. In 2010 DBNGP Finance issued A$575 million of five-year domestic MTNs – its first-ever bond to come without a credit wrap, and a landmark domestic transaction for a BBB- credit. Subsequently, in November 2012 DBNGP Finance issued A$300 million of seven-year domestic MTNs.
The company is currently planning for the refinancing of a A$400 million bank debt facility due in October 2014. •

About Holcim
F ounded in Switzerland in 1912, Holcim is one of the world’s leading suppliers of cement and aggregates. The group also supplies ready-mix concrete and asphalt, and provides related services. Holcim operates in around 70 countries and employs some 74,000
people. It is more globally spread than any other building materials group, with around 2,000 plants around the world.
Holcim’s business strategy is based on continuous growth in both developed economies and emerging, high-growth markets, where around three-quarters of its operational cement capacity is based. As an economy becomes more mature, vertical integration becomes increasingly important for Holcim.
Holcim took the opportunity to move toward vertical integration in Australia in 2009 through the successful acquisition of Cemex Australia – now Holcim Australia. Holcim operates more than 300 cement, aggregates, ready-mix and grinding plants and employs around 4,300 people in the three companies Holcim Australia, Cement Australia and Holcim New Zealand.
OwnershipHolcim is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. According to the latest available information, 20.11% of its shares is held by Thomas Schmidheiny, 10.82% by Eurocement Holding and 5.11% by Harris Associates.
Liquidity positionAt June 30 2013 Holcim had CHF2.6 billion in cash and marketable securities and CHF4.6 billion in undrawn committed credit lines.
Debt fundingAs at June 30 2013 Holcim had a net financial debt position of CHF11.0 billion. A total of 77% of its financial liabilities is

Corporate Finance and TreasuryMarkus Unternährer +41 58 858 8722 [email protected]/bondholders
financed through capital markets and 23% through banks and other lenders.
Holcim has a strong liquidity position of CHF7.2 billion and has decisively strengthened its balance sheet. The company places great importance on maintaining its solid investment-grade credit rating by complying with financial targets – such as funds from operations to net financial debt (target >25 per cent) or net financial debt to EBITDA (target <2.8x).
Outstanding corporate bank lines and bonds at the parent or financial sub-holding level are free from financial covenants, repeating material adverse change clauses or rating triggers. These debt instruments also feature limited cross-default provisions, which typically exclude operating subsidiaries. This removes the risk that any covenant breach by the group’s operating subsidiaries would contaminate the parent company’s debt.
Holcim Finance (Australia) is used as a finance vehicle for the group and all its long-term transactions are guaranteed by the parent company. •

About Incitec Pivot
I ncitec Pivot is a leading global chemicals company with nitrogen-based manufacturing at its core. The company is the number one supplier of fertilisers in Australia, a market-leading supplier of explosives products and services in North America – the largest industrial explosives market in
the world – and number two supplier of explosives products and services in Australia.
Incitec Pivot has operations throughout the US, Canada, Mexico, Australia, Turkey, Chile, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, with approximately 5,000 staff worldwide. Its headquarters are in Melbourne.
OwnershipIncitec Pivot was created from the merger between Pivot and Incitec Fertilizers in 2003. It has been listed on the Australian Securities Exchange since July 2003, as IPL, and is one of the top 100 listed companies on the exchange.
Liquidity positionIn its 2013 half-year results presentation Incitec Pivot reported that it has a significant level of funding headroom with undrawn committed funding lines – including cash – of over A$937 million.
Debt fundingThe consolidated entity has foreign operations with non-AUD functional currencies and so is exposed to translation risk resulting from FX movements. As a result, the consolidated entity has a preference for debt denominated in US dollars. Incitec Pivot anticipates it will have at least US$1.3 billion of debt borrowed directly in US dollars for the foreseeable future.
Incitec Pivot significantly extended the tenor of its debt portfolio with the issue of a US$800 million 144A Reg S bond
