1. About our SFOA

1.1 The SFOA is our standard form of agreement that you enter into with us when you either:
a. sign an Application Form;
b. register for a Service; or
c. first access our Services and we accept you as a Customer of Talk Down Under.

1.2 If a term in our SFOA is uncertain, then if it is reasonable in all the circumstances to do so, the interpretation
that is most favourable to you, will apply.

1.3 Your Services are subject to the terms of your Plan and the terms of any Offers you choose to take up. For
the purpose of interpreting this SFOA, the terms of your Plan and the terms of any Offers you choose to take up are deemed to be part of our SFOA.

To understand your rights and obligations you must read this agreement, the terms of your Plan and the terms of any Offers that you choose to take up, that relate to you and your Service.

1.4 If any term of any part of our SFOA conflicts with a term in another part of our SFOA, then the following order of precedence will apply in the event of any inconsistency:
a. the terms of the applicable Offer;
b. the terms of your Plan; then
c. this SFOA.

1.5 If a provision in a Plan or an Offer gives us the right to suspend or terminate your Service, then that right is in addition to our rights to either suspend or terminate your Service under this SFOA.

2. Making changes to our SFOA

2.1 From time to time, we may need to change the terms of our SFOA. For example, if one of our Suppliers
changes the terms on which they supply services to us, or changes the functionality or nature of a service, or
its underlying technology, we may need to change the terms on which we supply the Services to you. Consequently we do not offer to provide you with ongoing supply of a Service on the same terms and
conditions as exist when we first commenced providing that Service to you. You acknowledge and agree that
from time to time the nature of your Services and the terms on which we supply those Services may change. If we need to change our SFOA then we will give you Notice as set out in clause 2.2 below.

2.2 We will give you Notice of any changes to our SFOA at least 30 days prior to the date on which those changes are to take effect. If the changes we propose to make to our SFOA will cause detriment to you, for example, the new changes cost you extra money or may unreasonably change the Services we initially offered you, then you may immediately terminate the affected Service or Services we provide you under this SFOA without incurring an early termination fee or penalty, by giving us Notice to that effect within 42 days of you receiving Notice from us of the changes. You agree that if you do not give us Notice within the 42 day period, you are deemed to
have accepted the changes to our SFOA from their date of effect and the amended SFOA will then govern the relationship between you and us from that date.

2.3 For the avoidance of doubt, our right to change the terms of this SFOA excludes any right to remove or change clause 2.2 without your consent (unless we are required by law to amend that clause or we amend that clause to your benefit, for example, to increase the period of Notice or your rights of termination under clause 2.2).

3. Becoming a Talk Down Under Customer

3.1 When you apply for a Service with us, we decide whether to supply our Services to you, based on the following:
a. the particular terms for that Service;
b. your eligibility for the Service;
c. its availability to you; and
d. your ability to meet our credit requirements.

4. Connecting your Service

4.1 The Customer Service Guarantee requires us to connect standard fixed line telephone services (for example,
your home telephone Service) within a particular timeframe. You may be entitled to receive financial
compensation if we do not connect those Services within the timeframes specified by the Customer Service
Guarantee. A summary of our obligations under the Customer Service Guarantee is available on our website at www.talkdownunder.com.au or by calling us on 1800 864 766. For Services not covered by the Customer Service Guarantee, we will connect your Service within a reasonable time.

4.2 We decide the route and technical means that we use to provide you with your Service.

and have obtained our written consent, then you may appoint a third party to act on your behalf in relation to
our SFOA and your Services. We will not withhold our consent unreasonably but we may withdraw our consent
on reasonable grounds, relating to the third party's conduct. We will give you reasonable Notice before we do
so.

7. Transferring your Service to us

7.1 If you transfer your Services to us from another Supplier, we may need to change any arrangements you

advance. If you do not provide the relevant security by the date requested, then we may refuse to provide you with the Service or may terminate a Service that we have been supplying provided we have given you Notice prior to the termination. These rights are in addition to our rights to suspend or terminate your Service under clause 31.1(m).

11.2 We have reasonable grounds to suspect you are a credit risk if:
a. your Service has an unusually high volume or spend when compared to previous activity for that Service;
b. you fail to respond to our Notices about an unusually high volume or spend in relation to your Service; or

11.3 If you terminate all your Services, we will return the security deposit or advance payment to you, less any
outstanding Charges.

11.4 Our acceptance of any form of security or advance payment will not affect any other terms of our SFOA.

12. Charges

12.1 Our Schedule of Charges, our Plans and our Offers set out the Charges you must pay us for your Services.
The Charges must be paid by the due date on the invoice. Sometimes you may have to pay particular Charges
in advance in accordance with our Schedule of Charges, our Plans or our Offers.

12.2 If you dispute any Charges stated on your bill, you must notify us of the disputed amount and the reasons
why you dispute that amount before the due date for payment of the relevant bill.

that you may incur.

12.4 If another Supplier charges us in connection with the provision of Services to you, provided we comply with

We may send our bills to you electronically (if you choose and you are able to receive online bills) or we may send you paper bills via postal services. Unless we issue your bills more frequently in accordance with
clause 11.1, we will issue our bills to you either monthly or quarterly and if we choose to make any changes to
the frequency of your bills, we will give you 30 days Notice.

13.2 We try to include all our Charges relating to a billing period in that particular bill. However, if this does not
happen, then any subsequent bills may include any unpaid Charges no greater than 190 days old, from any
previous billing periods.

13.3 In some circumstances, it may be a condition of a particular Plan that you are required to receive your bills
online. If you are unable to receive your bills online, then we may Charge you an Administrative Fee for sending you a paper bill or you may be required to select an alternative Plan. If, at any time after we begin to supply a Service to you on a particular Plan, we introduce an Administrative Charge because you do not receive your bill for that Service online or you do not select an alternative Plan, you may immediately terminate the Services for which the Administrative Charge is introduced without incurring an early termination fee or penalty in accordance with clause 2.2. Any such Administrative Fee will be set out in our Schedule of Charges.

13.4 You can ask us for a paper copy of a past bill we have issued to you and we will send you a copy, but if we do, we may charge you an Administrative Fee for printing and sending you a past copy of a bill.

13.5 If you wish to dispute with us the correctness of Charges in a particular bill, you must do so within 12 months of the relevant bill's date. This does not affect any of your legal rights concerning incorrect Charges.

14. Direct Debit payments

14.1 In most cases you will be able to pay your bills by Direct Debit. If you have chosen this payment method,
then we will always provide you with a bill (either paper or online, depending on the requirements of your Plan
or the method you have opted for) before debiting the amounts owed to us. If you choose not to pay your bill
by Direct Debit, we may charge you an Administrative Fee as set out in our Schedule of Charges.

14.2 In some circumstances, it may be a condition of a particular Plan that you are required to pay by Direct Debit. If you are unable to pay by Direct Debit then you may be subject to an Administrative Fee or may be required to select an alternative Plan. If, at any time after we begin to supply a Service to you on a particular Plan, we introduce an Administrative Fee because you do not pay by Direct Debit for that Service or you do not select an alternative Plan, you may immediately terminate the Services for which the Administrative Fee is
introduced without incurring an early termination fee or penalty in accordance with clause 2.2. Any such
Administrative Fee will be set out in our Schedule of Charges.

14.3 We will debit your nominated account on the bill's due date unless you have notified us of a genuinely disputed amount on that bill and the reasons why you dispute that amount before the bill's due date.

14.4 If a Direct Debit is rejected by your financial services provider, then we may charge you an Administrative Fee (as set out in our Schedule of Charges) for the costs of processing the rejected transaction.

15. Overdue or dishonoured payments

15.1 If you do not pay your bill by the due date, we can charge you an Administrative Fee for collecting overdue
amounts, as set out in our Schedule of Charges.

15.2 If you pay a bill by cheque and that cheque is dishonoured, then you are liable to pay us an Administrative
Fee as set out in our Schedule of Charges. If you pay a bill by Direct Debit and there are insufficient funds in your account, then you are liable to pay us an Administrative Fee as set out in our Schedule of Charges.

15.3 We have the right to recover any overdue amounts from you through various means including but not limited to: an automated telephone reminder service, debt selling, using mercantile agents or commencing legal
action. We may engage the services of a third party supplier for the purposes of collecting overdue amounts
and they may also use any of these means to recover any overdue amounts. We are entitled to recover reasonable costs reasonably incurred in recovering any overdue amounts in addition to the overdue amounts.
We will notify you prior to taking any debt recovery actions that will result in further Charges to you.

16. Adjustments

16.1 We may round Charges payable by you up or down to the nearest whole cent (0.5 cents is rounded up). If
you pay a bill by cash, then we may round the amount payable by you to the nearest multiple of 5 cents.

16.2 We may pay you any amounts we owe you by deducting those amounts from any outstanding amounts you
may owe us. If the Services provided under this SFOA are terminated, we will return any security deposit or
advance payment to you less any Charges payable by you upon final settlement of your account.

16.3 If we require you to pay any Charges in advance (for example, the line rental fee) and the Charges are varied or the Service is terminated, then we will refund you any overpayment and you will pay us for any
underpayment.

17. Credit Balances and Service Entitlements

17.1 If your Services are terminated for any reason, we will notify you of any amount owed to you by us by stating that amount as a credit on your final bill. You may, by giving us Notice, claim a refund for the credited amount or elect to apply the credited amount to another Service we may supply to you. If you wish to do either of these things, please notify us within 90 days of receiving your final bill from us.

17.2 If you have any Service Entitlements you can only use those Service Entitlements towards usage of the
Services to which they relate and up until your account is terminated with us. No amount will be credited to you in lieu of any Service Entitlements. We will not give you cash or issue a cheque for any Service Entitlements if your Service is terminated.

18. GST

18.1 If GST applies or is introduced on any supply we make to you under our SFOA then you are required to pay
the GST amount at the prevailing GST rate. The GST amount must be paid by you without deduction or setoff.
We will issue you a Tax Invoice for any supply on which GST is payable.

19. Maintenance and repair

19.1 We will provide maintenance and support for all of our Services for as long as they are supplied to you. In

Customer Service Guarantee. A summary of our obligations under the Customer Service Guarantee is available on our website at www.talkdownunder.com.auor by calling 1800 864 766. You may be entitled to receive financial compensation if we do not repair faults within the timeframes specified by the Customer Service Guarantee.

belong to us and you must carry out any maintenance or repairs on that Equipment that we reasonably ask you to do from time to time.

19.3 If your Equipment causes a fault in your Service, then we may charge you a call-out fee and/or any third
party Supplier fees involved for rectifying the fault. This clause does not apply to Equipment which we have sold to you and which was faulty or defective at the time of sale or during any warranty period.

20. Causing interference

20.1 You must do what we reasonably tell you to do if your use of our Service interferes (or threatens to interfere) with the efficiency of our Network (this may include circumstances of you having inadequate capacity).

20.2 You must not interfere with or make unsafe our Service and will be responsible to make sure that the
operation of our Services are not interfered with or made unsafe by a third party who you authorise to use the
Service or who is otherwise under your reasonable control.

Premises. You understand that a Service may not work if the electricity supply is cut.

22.2 You must make any changes to your Equipment in connection with our Services, that we reasonably ask, in
order to avoid danger or interference that your Equipment may cause.

23. Return of Equipment

23.1 If your Service is terminated, you will be required to return to us or to the relevant Supplier, any Equipment
owned by us or that Supplier that you previously used in connection with our Service, or you must allow us to
recover that Equipment from you.

23.2 If you fail to return that Equipment to us or to the relevant Supplier or fail to enable us to gain access to your Premises to recover it, we will charge you for the replacement value of the Equipment, provided that we have given you reasonable Notice of your failure to return the Equipment or failure to enable us to gain access to
your Premises.

24. Accessing your Premises

24.1 We may need to gain access to your Premises from time to time. You agree to provide us with safe access to your Premises so we can:
a. install Equipment for a Service you have asked for;
b. inspect, test, maintain, repair or replace Equipment; and
c. recover our Equipment after your Service with us is terminated.

25. Owner's permission

25.1 If you do not own your Premises, you agree to seek the owner's permission to provide us with safe access to
your Premises so we can:
a. install Equipment for a Service you have asked for;
b. inspect, test, maintain, repair or replace Equipment; and

you promise us that you have obtained that permission. You indemnify us against (and must pay us for) any
claim the owner makes against us relating to our entering your Premises in accordance with paragraphs (a),
(b) or (c) without the owner's permission.

26. Telephone Numbers

26.1 The Telecommunications Numbering Plan sets out rules for issuing, transferring and changing telephone
numbers.

entitled to continue to use any telephone number we issue to you, except in circumstances where the
Telecommunications Number Plan allows us to recover the number from you.

number to another Person for use by that Person instead of you.

28.1 You are responsible and liable to pay for any use of your Service, whether or not you have authorised it. In
addition, it is your responsibility to disconnect any fixed Service you have when you leave your Premises. If

occupants or others. We therefore strongly recommend that you consider taking measures to protect yourself
from any unauthorised use of your Service.

a. if you have a call that remains connected for an unusually long period of time; or
b. where an unusually large volume of calls to premium-rate or international Services are being made from your Service.

Charges incurred for any excessive or unusual usage.

30. Breaching laws or regulations

30.1 You must not use any of our Services to breach any laws or regulations or allow anybody else to do the same.
If you use, or you allow someone else to use, our Service to breach any laws or regulations, then you must

k. you die and we reasonably believe that we are unlikely to receive payment for amounts due and payable;
l. you cannot pay your debts as they become due and payable, you become bankrupt or Insolvent or subject to a petition in bankruptcy, winding-up order or similar insolvency event or we have reasonable grounds to believe that you are likely to become so; or
m. we have reasonable grounds to believe that you represent a credit risk in relation to your Service. We have reasonable grounds to suspect you are a credit risk if:
i. your Service has an unusually high volume or spend when compared to previous activity for that Service;
ii. you fail to respond to our Notices about an unusually high volume or spend in relation to your Service; or
iii. you fail to pay Charges on your current bill by the due date and your account history shows a series of late payments, dishonoured payments or a failure to pay any outstanding Charges we have previously billed (excluding those Charges the correctness of which you have specifically and genuinely disputed in accordance with clause 12.2).

31.2 If you fail to pay any amounts due and payable under the SFOA by the bill due date, and still fail to pay after
we issue you with Notice in the form of a service disconnection notice requiring payment of the outstanding
amount, we may terminate, suspend or limit the provision of your Service from the date stated in the service
disconnection notice. This clause does not apply to amounts you have genuinely disputed prior to the due date
for payment of the relevant bill in accordance with clause 12.2 and that have not been resolved in our favour.

32. Consequences of suspending or terminating your Service

32.1 If we suspend or terminate a Service or part of a Service, you are liable to pay all outstanding amounts
incurred by you prior to the Service being suspended or terminated, other than amounts you have genuinely

not been resolved in our favour. In addition, you are still responsible for meeting your obligations under our
SFOA relating to liability and indemnity.

reconnect a Service that has been suspended or terminated due to your breach of this SFOA.

2. SUMMARY OF OUR SOFA

This is a summary of our "Standard Form of Agreement" or "SFOA".

It is not possible to cover everything in the SFOA in this summary. If you would like more detail about your rights and obligations you should obtain and read a copy of the SFOA (available at www.talkdownunder.com.au or by calling Talk Down Under on 1800 864 766. This summary does not override or change the terms and conditions of the SFOA.

2.1 Important Customer Information: Your Rights and Obligations

Our Services

Talk Down Under supplies telecommunications services for local, national and international long distance and fixed line to mobile. Our Services are supplied to you on the terms of our SFOA, the terms of your Plan and the terms of any Offers you choose to take up.

Making Changes to our SFOA

From time to time, we may need to change the terms of our SFOA. Consequently we do not offer to provide you with ongoing supply of a Service on the same terms and conditions as exist when we first commenced providing that Service to you. You acknowledge and agree that from time to time the nature of your Services and the terms on which we supply those Services may change. We will give you Notice of any changes to our SFOA at least 30 days prior to the date on which those changes are to take effect. If the changes we propose to make to our
SFOA will cause detriment to you, then you may immediately terminate the affected Service or Services
without incurring an early termination fee or penalty, by giving us Notice to that effect within 42 days of
you receiving Notice from us of the changes.

For the avoidance of doubt, our right to change the terms of our SFOA excludes any right to remove or change your notice and termination rights set out above without your consent unless we are required by law to amend those rights or we amend those rights to your benefit. You agree that if you do not give us Notice within the 42 day period, you are deemed to have accepted the changes to our SFOA from their date of effect and the amended SFOA will then govern the relationship between you and us from that date.

Using our Services

You must ensure that you comply at all times with your obligations set out in our SFOA. You must not use your
Services to transmit or publish any material that is defamatory, in breach of copyright or obligations of confidentiality or otherwise in breach of any laws. You indemnify us for any loss or expense we suffer as a result of your doing so.

Charges

Our Charges are set out in our Schedule of Charges, our Plans and our Offers which you can obtain by visiting
www.talkdownunder.com.au or you can call us on 1800 864 766. You are responsible for all Charges incurred for the use of your Service, whether or not you personally incurred those charges. All Charges must be paid by the due date on your bill.

We may charge you an Administrative Fee if:
• you do not pay your bill by the due date;
• you pay a bill by cheque and that cheque is dishonoured; or
• you pay a bill by Direct Debit and there are insufficient funds in your account.

In some circumstances, it may be a condition of a particular Plan that you are required to pay by Direct Debit. If you are unable to pay by Direct Debit then you may be subject to an Administrative Fee or may be required to select an alternative Plan.

If you dispute any Charges stated on your bill, you must notify us of the disputed amount and the reasons why you dispute that amount before the due date for payment of the relevant bill. You will not have to pay any amount which you have genuinely disputed in accordance with this clause unless, and until, the disputed amount is resolved in our favour. If you wish to dispute with us the correctness of Charges in a particular bill, you must do so within 12 months of the relevant bill's date. This does not affect any of your legal rights concerning incorrect Charges.

If you and we agree that we will provide you with a Service for a minimum term (for example, 12 months), and you
terminate that Service without cause, or we terminate the Service for cause, we may charge you an early termination fee and/or charge you the equivalent of the monthly access Charge for the remaining months of that minimum term.

We will also charge you for any amounts outstanding on any Equipment.

Billing

We will send you a bill on a regular basis (usually monthly) by mail or online. In some circumstances, it may be a
condition of a particular Plan that you are required to receive your bill online. If you choose not to receive your bill online then you may be subject to an Administrative Fee or may be required to select an alternative Plan.

Security

If we have reasonable grounds to believe you are a credit risk or if you have failed to pay by the due date, we may ask you to provide some form of security (for example, a security deposit). If you do not provide the relevant security by the date requested, then we may refuse to provide you with the Service or may terminate a Service that we have been supplying.

Transfer of Services

If you transfer your Services to us from another Supplier, we may need to change any arrangements you have with that Supplier. The SFOA provides information about transferring your arrangements with your current supplier to us, or transferring your arrangements with us to another supplier.

Suspension and Termination

The grounds under which we can suspend or terminate your Services are set out in the SFOA. We will take all
reasonable steps in the circumstances to notify you before we suspend or terminate a Service, and if we are unable to give you Notice we will attempt to contact you by telephone.

Subject to any other express rights or obligations either of us may have under the SFOA, either of us may terminate a Service immediately on giving the other party Notice, if the other party materially breaches the SFOA or without cause, by giving the other party not less than 30 days Notice.

You may terminate the SFOA immediately if you are transferring your Services away from us to another Supplier or you vacate your Premises where you had a fixed Service and you do not wish to, or we are not able to, transfer that Service to other Premises.

If you fail to pay any amounts due and payable under the SFOA by the bill due date, and still fail to pay after we issue you with Notice in the form of a service disconnection notice requiring payment of the outstanding amount, we may terminate, suspend or limit the provision of your Service from the date stated in the service disconnection notice. We can ask you to pay a reconnection Charge before we agree to reconnect a Service that has been suspended or terminated due to your breach of the SFOA.

Our Liability to You

If we are negligent in our supply of Services to you and our negligence in supplying Services causes personal injury, death or damage to your property we will be liable for our negligence.

Certain laws imply terms, conditions or warranties into contracts for the supply of goods or services that cannot be excluded (for example, that services must be provided with due care and skill and goods must be reasonably fit for their purpose and be of a certain quality). In the event that a term, condition or warranty is implied into our SFOA and we breach that implied term, condition or warranty then we accept liability for that breach, subject to any limitation of that liability set out in our SFOA and permitted by law.

Where we are permitted to limit our liability, our liability for breach of a term, condition or warranty implied into our SFOA by law will be limited (at our option) to, in the case of goods, repairing the goods, replacing the goods or supplying equivalent goods, or paying you the cost of that repair, replacement or equivalent supply; and in the case of services, resupplying the services to you or paying you the cost of having the services resupplied. The limitation and exclusion above does not apply to goods or services which are of a kind which are ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, or if it would be unconscionable or not fair and reasonable for us to limit our liability. We exclude all terms, conditions and warranties that would otherwise be implied into our SFOA, except to the extent that such exclusion is prohibited by law.

Other than as set out in our SFOA and to the extent permitted by law, we are not liable to you in contract, tort
(including negligence) or otherwise, for any loss or damage incurred by you. For example, we are not liable for any loss of profits or anticipated savings, economic loss, loss of data or any indirect or consequential damages that may be suffered by you. In addition, we have no liability to you or to any other Person for acts or defaults of Suppliers who provide services directly to you for use in connection with the Services; faults or defects in services or software which are caused to any material extent by your own conduct or misuse; or faults or defects that arise in telecommunication services not provided under our SFOA which are due to incompatibility with the Services. We will not be liable for failing to comply with our SFOA if an event occurs that is beyond our control, for example an explosion, natural disaster, earthquake, war (declared or undeclared) or act of God.

Your Liability to Us

You must not use any of our Services to breach any laws or regulations or allow anybody else to do the same. If you use, or you allow someone else to use, your Service to breach any laws or regulations, then you must indemnify us for any loss or expense that we suffer. You indemnify us against any costs, loss or damage (including but not limited to legal costs) that we may reasonably incur in relation to your negligence in relation to your use of the Services if your use of the Services causes personal injury or death; or your negligence in relation to your use of our Services if that use causes damage to tangible property.
