In accordance with Chapter 1, Part 3, Section 7 of the GOC Act, the SCI represents a formal performance agreement between the Board of Stanwell Corporation Limited (Stanwell) and its shareholding Ministers with respect to the financial and non-financial performance targets specified for the financial year. The SCI represents an acknowledgment of, and agreement to major activities, objectives, undertakings, policies, investments and borrowings of Stanwell for 2015/16. Stanwell’s core business is: • operating coal-fired electricity generation plant at Stanwell Power Station, Tarong Power Station and Tarong North Power Station, gas-fired generation plant at Swanbank E Power Station and Mica Creek Power Station, hydro generation plant at Kareeya, Barron Gorge, Koombooloomba and Wivenhoe (small) power stations and diesel oil-fuelled plant at Mackay Gas Turbine; • electricity, gas, coal and other commodity sales and trading; • operating Meandu Mine and managing other critical sources of fuel to support the needs of the generation portfolio, and • managing energy resources to ensure continued optionality for trading and/or generation. This SCI is consistent with Stanwell’s Corporate Plan 2015/16 to 2019/20 submitted to shareholding Ministers, and agreed in accordance with Chapter 3, Part 8 of the GOC Act. In signing this document, Stanwell’s Board undertakes to achieve the targets proposed in the SCI for 2015/16. Major changes to key assumptions and outcomes detailed in this SCI, and which come to the Board’s attention during the year, will be brought to the attention of shareholding Ministers. Any modifications to this SCI will be dealt with in accordance with the GOC Act. This SCI is signed on behalf of all the directors in accordance with a unanimous decision of the Board of Stanwell. …………………………………. Shane Charles Chairman Date: …………………………………. ……………………………… The Hon Curtis Pitt MP The Hon Mark Bailey MP Treasurer and Minister for Employment, and Minister for Main Roads, Road Safety and Ports Industrial Relations and Minister for Aboriginal and and Minister for Energy and Water Supply Torres Strait Islander Partnerships Date: Date: Statement of Corporate Intent 2015/16 Page 3 of 35 Commercial-in-Confidence 2.0 BUSINESS OVERVIEW We are a diversified energy business. We own coal, gas and water assets which we use to generate electricity; we sell electricity directly to business customers; and we trade gas and coal. Our portfolio of fuel, generation and retail electricity contracts allows us to achieve the best possible returns from our business. Stanwell is able to shift revenue between generation and other energy markets depending on market conditions. By switching between generating and selling our fuel (depending on market conditions), we can meet the demand for our energy products and get the best value from our assets. With a generating capacity of more than 4,100 megawatts, Stanwell is the largest electricity generator in Queensland. We have the capacity to supply more than 45 per cent of Queensland’s peak electricity requirements through our coal, gas and hydro power stations. We create value from this portfolio by switching generation between fuels depending on market conditions. We own and have access to competitively priced fuel to use at our power stations. This gives us a significant cost advantage in the market. In cases where it provides a better return, we sell our coal or gas to customers instead of using it to generate electricity. We have an established retail business, selling electricity directly to business customers. We are growing this retail service to include a broader range of business customers in Queensland, New South Wales, the Australian Capital Territory and Victoria. Statement of Corporate Intent 2015/16 Page 4 of 35 Commercial-in-Confidence Statement of Corporate Intent 2015/16 Page 5 of 35 Commercial-in-Confidence 3.0 OBJECTIVES AND INITIATIVES With improving market conditions and continued cost management, Stanwell’s 2015/16 SCI builds upon Stanwell’s previous strategic initiatives to deliver a significantly improved commercial performance and long-term profitability from its generation business. To deliver on this commitment, Stanwell has structured its strategic approach around three themes: Sell our energy for the best return Optimise trading revenue, find alternative outlets for energy and diversify revenue streams. Simplify and streamline our business Create value from the way Stanwell operates its generation portfolio by continuing the organisation’s focus on improving cost and performance efficiencies from core business operations. Secure our future Provide a safe workplace, engage and retain a high performing workforce and secure ongoing support for Stanwell’s operations and corporate direction. Statement of Corporate Intent 2015/16 Page 6 of 35 Commercial-in-Confidence Sell our energy for the best return OPTIMISE GROSS MARGIN What we will do How we will do it Increase our trading revenue ••• Develop and execute integrated spot, contract and fuel trading strategies that improve short and long- term revenue performance Ensure asset performance supports trading ••• Implement asset management strategies and lifecycle requirements plans to ensure asset performance meets market needs ••• Complete plant and equipment overhauls and capital projects within approved budgets and timeframes • Develop an ash disposal plan for the life of Stanwell’s coal-fired generation assets Reduce fuel and mine costs ••• Deliver coal to the Tarong power stations in line with the 2014 Meandu Life of Mine Plan ••• Extract synergies between mine and power station (minimise pit to pole operating costs) ••• Continue to support the Hitachi autonomous truck trials and assessment at Meandu Mine ••• Progress stakeholder agreement and regulatory approvals for surface rights extension at Meandu Mine Secure commercial water supply arrangements ••• Implement strategies to secure a commercial water supply for Stanwell’s generation assets Statement of Corporate Intent 2015/16 Page 7 of 35 Commercial-in-Confidence

In many cases, the projects listed in the Asset Management Plan have been selected from a large number of future scenarios and are the result of preliminary investigations. As well as the need for future analysis to evaluate system and asset conditions and alternatives, there are processes described in the National Electricity Rules that need to be followed before projects can be approved. It is possible that projects listed here may change in scope or timing, be replaced by other projects or deemed unnecessary. Business decisions and actions should not be made solely on the basis of information contained here. The Asset Management Plan does not replace any current business or approval processes. Risk costs continue to be enhanced and at this stage should not be used to solely prioritise projects or prioritise projects between asset classes as currently not all risks have been modelled which leads to some risk costs being understated. Similarly some asset risks are based on desktop analysis at an asset fleet level rather than based on individual asset condition, depending on the timing of the anticipated investment need.
