•    (ii) as determined by the quotation agent described below, the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed, not including interest accrued to, but excluding, the redemption date, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 365-day year) at the Australian Treasury Bond Rate plus 30 basis points,

 

plus, in either case of (i) or (ii) above, accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any interest on the Notes being redeemed that is due and payable on an Interest Payment Date falling on or prior to a redemption date for such Notes will be payable on such Interest Payment Date to holders of such Notes being redeemed as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the terms of such Notes and the governing indenture.

(ii) “ Comparable Australian Treasury Bond Price ” means, with respect to any redemption date, the average of all Reference Australian Treasury Bond Dealer Quotations for such date (which, in

(iii) “ Reference Australian Treasury Bond Dealer ” means any authorized bond dealer appointed by the Issuer in good faith;

 

(iv) “ Reference Australian Treasury Bond Dealer Quotations ” means, with respect to each Reference Australian Treasury Bond Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as determined by the quotation agent, of the bid and offered prices for the Comparable Australian Treasury Bond (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the quotation agent by such Reference Australian Treasury Bond Dealer at 3:30 p.m. (Sydney time), on the third business day in Sydney preceding the redemption date; or

 

(b) if the rate cannot be determined in accordance with paragraph (a) above, the rate (expressed as a yield to maturity) published by the Reserve Bank of Australia at or about 5:00 p.m. (Sydney time) on that day as the average of the buy and sell rates transacted on that day by authorized bond dealers for the series of Australian Commonwealth Government Treasury Bonds with a remaining term to maturity closest to the period from such redemption date to the Maturity Date of the Notes.
