DBP
About DBP
D BP is the trading name of the privately owned group of entities which owns and operates 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. Due to a recontracting with many of the DBNGP shippers announced on August 7 2014, 85% of the DBNGP full-haul capacity will be subject to long-term revenue streams outside of the ERA-determined regulatory tariff (out to December 31 2020).
OwnershipDBP’s shareholders are DUET Group (80%) and Alcoa of Australia (Alcoa) (20%). DUET Group is an ASX-listed owner

of energy utility assets in Australia. Alcoa operates the largest integrated bauxite mining and alumina refining operations in the world, 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 2014, DBP had in place a A$20 million working-capital facility, A$28 million in cash at hand and A$35 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 triple-B minus credit. Subsequently, in November 2012 DBNGP Finance issued A$300 million of seven-year domestic MTNs.

GPT WHOLESALE SHOPPING CENTRE FUND
About GPT Wholesale Shopping Centre Fund
G PT Wholesale Shopping Centre Fund (GWSCF) provides investors with exposure to prime regional Australian retail assets located in New South Wales, Victoria, the Northern Territory and the Australian Capital Territory. The fund was established in March
2007 with a A$1.9 billion portfolio consisting of interests in eight shopping centres. At June 30 2014, it had ownership interests in 10 high-quality retail assets with a value of A$3.5 billion. From time to time the fund undertakes developments of its assets in order to enhance portfolio returns.
OwnershipGWSCF is an unlisted Australian-based wholesale property fund. The responsible entity of GWSCF is GPT Funds Management, a wholly owned subsidiary of the GPT Group (GPT) (see p43).
GPT is a public company, listed on the ASX in April 1971 as General Property Trust. With an A$8.8 billion direct property portfolio and total assets under management of A$16.7 billion, GPT is one of Australia’s largest diversified listed-property groups. It owns, develops and actively manages a diversified portfolio of quality Australian property assets on behalf of both listed and wholesale investors.
Liquidity positionAt June 30 2014, GWSCF had A$142 million of liquidity available in cash and through committed but undrawn debt facilities. The fund generally manages cash to a low level in order to reduce outstanding debt. Its capital expenditure programme is partly funded by earnings retained via a distribution-reinvestment plan.
Debt fundingGWSCF has in place A$795 million of unsecured bank facilities – excluding a A$180 million forward-start facility available from August 2014 – with various maturities to April 2019, being A$664 million drawn at June 30 2014. An additional A$200 million of fixed-rate MTNs matures in November 2017.

30 2014, the fund was well within its covenant limits with gearing at 24.5% against a covenant of 50%.
The fund’s gearing is conservatively managed in the 10-30% range. Since June 2014, GWSCF has acquired a further 8.33% of the Highpoint Shopping Centre (taking its ownership to 58.33%), and has launched a A$400 million equity raising to return gearing to about 17% by October. Average term to maturity of debt was 3.1 years as at June 30 2014.
In order to minimise funding and refinancing risk, GWSCF aims to ensure that debt maturity is no greater than A$200 million at any point in time and a maximum of A$300 million in any calendar quarter. The anticipated A$400 million equity raising proceeds will be used predominately to repay short-dated bank facilities maturing in the second half of 2015.

HOLCIM
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 71,000
people. It is more globally spread than any other building materials group, with around 1,750 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 acquisition of Cemex Australia – now Holcim Australia. Holcim operates around 300 cement, aggregates, ready-mix and grinding plants and employs around 4,500 people in the three companies Holcim Australia, Cement Australia and Holcim New Zealand.
On April 7 2014, Holcim announced that it intends to enter into a merger of equals with Lafarge to create LafargeHolcim. Completion of the merger of equals is expected by the end of the first half of 2015, subject to, among other things, obtaining regulatory approvals.
OwnershipHolcim is listed on the SIX Swiss Exchange. As at December 31 2013, 20.11% of its shares was held by Thomas Schmidheiny, 10.82% by Eurocement Holding AG and 5.11% by Harris Associates L.P.
Liquidity positionAt June 30 2014, Holcim had CHF1.9 billion in cash and marketable securities and CHF3.9 billion in undrawn committed credit lines.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT:
Patrick Förg, Corporate Finance & Treasury+41 58 858 8724 [email protected]/bondholders
Debt fundingAs at June 30 2014, Holcim had a net financial debt position of CHF10.6 billion. A total of 77% of its financial liabilities is financed through capital markets and 23% through banks and other lenders.
Holcim has a strong liquidity position of CHF5.9 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%) 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.
