Correct Contract Documents: Make sure you are
referring to and using the correct and up to date
version of the Contract Documents.
Drafting notes and examples: Throughout the
Project and Finance Documents there are bold,
italicised notes in brackets, indicating "drafting
notes" or "examples" which are to be deleted prior to
distribution to any potential contracting party.
Completing the Project and Finance Documents:
these documents require project-specific details to be
inserted in the Cover Page and Attachments. Before
forwarding the Project or Finance Document to the
relevant party, you must complete as many details as
possible. The notes in bold, italics and highlighted
in yellow in the Project and Finance Documents,
including the Attachments, will assist you.
Negotiation and Amendment: If you are negotiating
the terms of a Project or Finance Document, you
should not amend the General Conditions. If you wish
to amend the General Conditions, you must refer any
proposed amendments to your Legal Department.

Preparing the Project Documents for signing: You
must ensure that complete copies of the Project or
Finance Document are prepared for each party to the
relevant document so that each party can retain one
original after it is signed by you.
Authorisation: You must ensure that the person
who is to sign the Project or Finance Document on
your behalf is appropriately authorised to do so (eg.
by a board or shareholder resolution authorising
that person to sign the document). If you have any
doubt as to whether that person has the appropriate
authorisation you should refer the matter to your
Legal Department.
Signing: The person signing on your behalf need
only sign the Project or Finance Document on the
signing page. If either party is not an Australian
company please consult us on any formalities that
may be required for that party signing Deeds.
Date of Signing: Include the date of signing the
Project or Finance Document on the cover page of the
Project or Finance Document. Parties need not sign at
the same time or on the same copy of the document. If
<I>
the Project or Finance Document is signed on different
dates, the date that should be inserted is the date that
the last party signed the Project or Finance Document.
Storage of Original: you must retain an original
signed by your authorised representative. You should
retain a photocopy of the fully executed agreement for
your own records.View entire presentation
