POSTING OF COLLATERAL AT THE THIRD MARK TO MARKET DATE
1. INTRODUCTION
As previously disclosed:
- in order to hedge its obligations to the holders of the Carbon Credit
Notes, the Issuer has concluded a hedging agreement with Ecosecurities
Limited ("Ecosecurities") for the forward delivery of Carbon Credits;
- to hedge the risk of non-delivery by Ecosecurities under the hedging
agreement, Ecosecurities is obliged, at six-monthly mark to market dates,
to post collateral equivalent to the amount by which Carbon Credit Market
Price is higher than the forward price it will receive under the hedging
agreement ("the exposure"). The collateral is to be posted with The
Standard Bank of South Africa Limited ("SBSA") as Collateral Escrow Agent;
- the Carbon Credit Market price is the US$ bid price of Carbon Credits on
the relevant date as determined by SBSA by obtaining quotes from four
nominated brokers, disregarding the lowest and highest of such quotes and
determining the average of the two remaining quotes to be the Carbon Credit
Market Price;
- the collateral to be posted by Ecosecurities must comprise a combination of
cash, near cash and non-near cash assets provided that at least 30% of the
collateral posted at the third mark to market date is required to be cash
and near cash assets and the value of any non-near cash assets posted as
collateral is to be discounted by 50%.
2. POSTING OF COLLATERAL
In the risk factors relating to the Carbon Credit Notes in the circular,
investors were advised that at the date of the circular there was no spot price
for Carbon Credits and that trading in Carbon Credits was limited to project
specific forward contracts.
This is still the case and, accordingly, in determining the Carbon Credit Market
price for the third mark to market date of 5 May 2006, the brokers polled
provided quotes for the price that they would bid for Carbon Credits which are
defined as issued Carbon Emission Reduction certificates generated in any year
between 2000 and 2007 inclusive. Based on these polls, the Carbon Credit Market
Price at the third mark to market date was US$28.71 per Carbon Credit.
Based on the relevant Carbon Credit Market Price and the forward price under the
hedging agreement, SBSA have determined that the amount of the exposure for
which collateral needs to be placed is US$18 822 886.
The exposure of US$18 822 886 has been collateralised by the posting with SBSA
of:
- US$5 646 866 in near cash assets; and
- non-near cash assets in the form of forward contracts for Carbon Credits
with a value of US$40 114 156,
- resulting in collateral with a total value (after discounting the value of
the non-near cash collateral by 50%) in excess of the US$31 998 906
required, having been posted.
