Updated offering circulars were subsequently issued on 16 November 2012, 9 March 2015 and 6 March 2019. This Offering Circular supersedes any previous Offering Circular and any supplement thereto. Any Notes (as defined below) issued under the Programme on or after the date of this Offering Circular are issued subject to the provisions described herein. This does not affect any Notes issued prior to the date of this Offering Circular. Under this Programme, the Issuer may from time to time issue notes (the Notes) denominated in any currency agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Dealer (as defined below). The payments of all amounts due in respect of the Notes will be guaranteed pursuant to the terms of the guarantee (the Guarantee) contained in the Trust Deed (as defined below) by Australian Pipeline Limited in its capacity as trustee and responsible entity of Australian Pipeline Trust (in that capacity, the Principal Guarantor) and in its capacity as trustee and responsible entity of the APT Investment Trust and by certain other entities within the Group (each an Initial Guarantor, and together with the Principal Guarantor, the Initial Guarantors), subject to the terms of the Trust Deed. The Issuer may from time to time and in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed and the terms and conditions of the Notes appoint or procure the appointment of any Subsidiary (as defined below) of the Principal Guarantor which is not an Initial Guarantor as an additional guarantor (each such guarantor, an Additional Guarantor) or obtain a release of the guarantee provided by an Initial Guarantor (other than the Principal Guarantor) or an Additional Guarantor in respect of the Notes. The Initial Guarantors together with any Additional Guarantors but excluding any such released guarantors are referred to herein as the Guarantors. All references in this document to the Group include each Guarantor and each of its Subsidiaries (as defined in the section entitled “Terms and Conditions of the Notes”) and for the avoidance of doubt includes the Australian Pipeline Trust and the APT Investment Trust.

The maximum aggregate nominal amount of all Notes from time to time outstanding under the Programme will not exceed U.S.$5,000,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies calculated as described in the Programme Agreement described below), subject to increase as described in the Programme Agreement. The Notes may be issued on a continuing basis to the Initial Dealer specified under “Overview of the Programme” and any additional Dealer appointed under the Programme from time to time by the Issuer (each a Dealer and together the Dealers), which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an ongoing basis. References in this Offering Circular to the relevant Dealer shall, in the case of an issue of Notes being (or intended to be) subscribed by more than one Dealer, be to all Dealers agreeing to subscribe for such Notes.
