25. ENCUMBERED ASSETS<br />

Suspensive sale agreements are instalment sale agreements which the group has entered into in<br />

respect of certain property, plant and equipment and the assets purchased are encumbered as security for<br />

the outstanding liability until such time as the liability is discharged.<br />

In addition, the group uses a substantial portion of the plant and machinery at its Cloquet Mill in<br />

terms of a capitalised lease. The group has the right to acquire full ownership of these assets at the end of<br />

the lease term at the fair market value. Early termination of the lease may occur under three different<br />

scenarios; namely, under Scenario A payment would be made by <strong>Sappi</strong> as a result of the following events:<br />

voluntary early termination, termination due to default and total loss of plant and equipment without<br />

substitution; under Scenario B payment would be made by <strong>Sappi</strong> as a result of changes in statute rendering<br />

the agreement illegal or unenforceable; and under Scenario C the lease naturally expires or early<br />

termination is triggered by the lessor. As at September <strong><strong>20</strong>06</strong> the termination value of this lease is<br />

approximately US$11 million (September <strong>20</strong>05: US$11 million).<br />
