(c)the parties desire to vary the Principal Agreement.
NOW THIS AGREEMENT WITNESSETH:
1.Subject to the context the words and expressions used in this Agreement have the same meanings respectively as they have in and for the purpose of the Principal Agreement.
2.The provisions of this Agreement shall not come into operation until a Bill to approve and ratify this Agreement is passed by the Legislature of the said State and comes into operation as an Act.
3.The Principal Agreement is hereby varied as follows:
(1)Clause 1 —
(a)by inserting before the definition of “commencing date” the following definition —
““bulk cargo” means any quantity of petroleum or other bulk materials being materials for the construction operation and maintenance of the refinery or being surplus materials from the refinery or being such other materials as the Minister after consultation with the Fremantle Port Authority may from time to time approve for the purposes of this definition;”;
(b)by deleting the full stop in the definition of “refinery site” and inserting therein after “hereof” the following —
“ less any part or parts thereof sold by the Company; ”;
(c)by inserting after the definition of “refinery site” the following definition —
““tonne” has the same meaning as it has in and for the purposes of regulations under the Fremantle Port Authority Act 1902. ”.
(2)Clause 3 —
(a)subclause (f) —
by inserting after “this Agreement”, where it first occurs, the following —
“ up to and including the year ending the 30th day of June, 1984 ”;
(b)by inserting after subclause (j) the following subclauses —
“(k)on and after the 1st day of July, 1984 pay to the Fremantle Port Authority in relation to any cargo described in clause 4, subclause (s) hereof which is discharged upon or over or shipped from or over the wharves, jetties, landing places or berths referred to in clause 3, subclause (b) hereof wharfage charges as follows —
(i)on all inward and outward bulk cargoes at the rate of 10.94 cents per tonne PROVIDED THAT upon any alteration after the 1st day of July, 1984 in the Fremantle Port Authority’s general cargo Inner Harbour rate for wharfage on non‑containerised inward goods for which other specific rates are not provided (hereinafter called “the basic rate”) the rate shall increase or decrease proportionately to the alteration in the basic rate;
(ii)on all other inward and outward cargoes a sum equal to 25 per centum of the appropriate prescribed general cargo non‑containerised rates from time to time applicable to Fremantle Port Authority Inner Harbour cargoes (which rates as at the 1st July, 1984 were $3 per tonne for inward cargoes and $2 per tonne for outward cargoes);
PROVIDED THAT at the end of June in the year 1989 and each fifth year thereafter the said base figure of 10.94 cents (or such other base figure as may have been substituted therefor by virtue of this proviso) shall be reviewed and if during the period from the 1st day of July five years prior thereto the amounts payable by the Company under paragraph (i) of this subclause have on average increased at a rate greater than CCI (as hereinafter defined) has on average increased (measured by the CCI figure for the end of the preceding March in each case), the said base figure to apply from the next succeeding 1st day of July shall be reduced so far as necessary to ensure that the amount payable by the Company as at that 1st day of July equals the amount which would have been payable at that date if during the preceding five year period the amounts payable under paragraph (i) of this subclause had on average increased at the same rate as CCI has on average increased in that period AND for the purposes of this proviso “CCI” means the weighted average of:

(l)keep the Minister fully informed in respect of, and when and in such form as required by the Minister from time to time report to the Minister on, the measures it has taken and is taking for the monitoring, protection and management of the environment including without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions with respect to the following matters arising from the operations of the Company at the refinery site —

(m)without prejudice to any obligation of the Company to comply with the regulations under the Fremantle Port Authority Act 1902, during such time as a jetty superintendent of the Fremantle Port Authority is not present at the wharves, jetties, landing places or berths referred to in clause 3, subclause (b) hereof, use all reasonable endeavours to ensure compliance by third parties with part IV section V (as amended or replaced from time to time) of the said regulations. ”.
