GST

15.1

Words used in this clause 15 that have a defined meaning in the GST Law have the same meaning as in the GST Law unless the context indicates otherwise.

15.2

Unless expressly stated otherwise, the consideration for any supply under or in connection with this Agreement is exclusive of GST.

15.3

To the extent that any supply made under or in connection with this Agreement is a taxable supply (other than any supply made under another agreement that contains a specific provision dealing with GST), the amount payable by the recipient is the consideration provided under this agreement for that supply (unless it expressly includes GST) plus an amount (additional amount) equal to the amount of that consideration (or its GST exclusive market value) multiplied by the rate at which GST is imposed in respect of the supply.

15.4

The recipient must pay the additional amount at the same time as the consideration to which it is referable, and upon the issue of an invoice relating to the supply.

Whenever an adjustment event occurs in relation to any taxable supply to which clause 15.3 applies:

(a)

the supplier must determine the amount of the GST component of the consideration payable; and

(b)

if the GST component of that consideration differs from the amount previously paid, the amount of the difference must be paid by, refunded to or credited to the recipient, as applicable.

15.6

If either party is entitled under this agreement to be reimbursed or indemnified by the other party for a cost or expense incurred in connection with this agreement, the reimbursement or indemnity payment must not include any GST component of the cost or expense to the extent that the cost or expense is the consideration for a creditable acquisition made by the party being reimbursed or indemnified, or by its representative member.
