  12. Executive Director’s briefing Knights Tourist Park Fund cont. • Subsequent events • The Fund breached the LVR covenant of its NAB finance facility in the first half of 2013 which caused an increase in the fund’s amortisation schedule. • At 31 December 2013, NAB adopted a valuation at a lesser figure for Hervey Bay than the Fund’s valuation • Hervey Bay was offered to the market for sale, subject to the lease to Free Spirit. An offer has been accepted, subject to finance and satisfactory due diligence, at the Fund’s book value. • A condition assessment on the Darwin property was received in July 2013 indicating the need to spend ~$5.7m on capital expenditure and major repairs and maintenance items. • As a result of the scope and cost of the condition assessment, the Fund would breach its loan covenants and NAB was notified. The Bank required an updated valuation and a critical assessment of the scope and cost of the works. • The updated valuation was $20.2m against $23.5m in December 2012. Knights Capital Group Limited

  13. Executive Director’s briefing Knights Tourist Park Fund cont. • Subsequent events cont. • The scope and cost of the works were reduced from $5.7m to ~$1.65m • The Fund Manager proposed a strategy that would make the fund compliant with its covenants and allow NAB to remain as lender to the Fund, including – • Applying the net sale proceeds of Hervey Bay to the KTPF loan facility • Funding the necessary works at Darwin through retained earnings (non payment of the June 13 and September 13 distributions) and contributions to the costs from Free Spirit • Reduce the loan amortisation • Reinstate distributions albeit at a lesser level in 2014 • The sale of Hervey Bay has now been frustrated by a condition of the purchaser’s financier requiring Free Spirit to surrender the two options to renew that they have in their lease for Hervey Bay.
