Passes to the trust deed: Transpower, Transpower Finance Limited, and Transpower Finance Limited’s fellow subsidiaries, excluding Rick Resourcing Group. Bonwave Finance, Busanhope Holdings and Beacon Trust (the “Guaranteeing Group”) have given a negative pledge that while any of the stock issued under the trust deed remains outstanding they will not, subject to certain exceptions, create or permit to exist any charge or lien over any of their respective assets. Each member of the Guaranteeing Group has guaranteed all monies payable in redemption or repayment to the Bond, and the payment of interest during the term of the Bonds.
