9.11

Retention of Charges

Notwithstanding clause 9.10 (Release):

(a)

if the Security Agent shall have reasonable grounds for believing that the Chargor may be unable to pay its debts as and when they fall due or that the value of the Chargor’s assets may be less than the amount of its liabilities taking into account its contingent and prospective liabilities or may be deemed for the purposes of any law to be insolvent or bankrupt, as at the date of any payment made by the Chargor to a Secured Party, the Security Agent shall be at liberty to retain the charges and assignments contained in or created pursuant to this Deed until the expiry of a period of one month plus such statutory period within which any assurance, security, guarantee or payment can be avoided or invalidated;

(b)

the Security Agent shall be able to exercise its rights under paragraph (a) above notwithstanding the payment and discharge in full of all Secured Amounts or any release, settlement, discharge or arrangement that may be given or made by the Secured Parties on, or as a consequence of, such payment or discharge of liability; and

(c)

if at any time within such period as is referred to in paragraph (a) above, any step or corporate action is taken in respect of the Chargor in relation to or with a view to any insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or procedure as set out in Part 26 of the Companies Act 2006 or in the Insolvency Act 1986 (as amended from time to time) or in relation to or with a view to any analogous proceedings or procedure in any jurisdiction, the Security Agent shall be at liberty to continue to retain such security for such further period as the Security Agent may reasonably determine and such security shall be deemed to have continued to have been held as security for the payment and discharge to the Secured Parties of all Secured Amounts.

Page 17

9.12

Collateral Value Calculation

The Collateral Value shall be calculated by the Security Agent in its discretion based on a percentage of the value of such Collateral, as established by the Security Agent from time to time. The Security Agent may, in its discretion and without prior notice to the Chargor, reduce the percentage applied to certain Collateral and/or assign no value to certain Collateral. No value will be assigned to Collateral where the Security Interest over the Collateral has not been perfected (including where consent to the Security Interest from a third party is required but has not been obtained).

9.13

Right to demand Additional Security

The Security Agent may require that the Chargor provides, at such time and on such notice as the Security Agent may require (and the requirement may be intra-day), additional funds or assets acceptable to the Security Agent as Collateral in circumstances, including, but not limited to, where the Collateral Value falls, the trading volume or volatility of the Collateral changes or a significant change in market conditions occurs.

Page 18

(i)

directors, officers, employees, advisers, agents and auditors of the Security Agent or any of its Affiliates; and

(j)

any other person, with the Chargor’s consent.

JURISDICTION

(a)

Subject to the provisions of paragraph (b) below and to clause 17 (Dispute Resolution), the courts of England have jurisdiction to settle any dispute, difference or controversy arising out of or in connection with this Deed (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of this Deed or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Deed) (a Dispute) and the parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no party will argue to the contrary.

(b)

This clause 16 is for the benefit of the Security Agent only. As a result only the Security Agent shall not be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Security Agent may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. For the avoidance of doubt, the Chargor must follow the Dispute Resolution provisions set out in clause 17 (Dispute Resolution).

(c)

Subject to paragraph (l) below, any Dispute shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration under the LCIA Arbitration Rules (the Rules) as modified by this clause 17, which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause 17.

The arbitral tribunal shall consist of one arbitrator to be appointed by the LCIA Court. The LCIA Court may appoint the arbitrator from among the nationals of any country, whether or not a Party is a national of that country.

(e)

The seat of arbitration shall be London, England.

(f)

The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

(g)

Sections 45 and 69 of the Arbitration Act 1996 shall not apply.

(h)

Without prejudice to Article 22.1(x) of the Rules, the Parties agree that, until the arbitral tribunal has been appointed by the LCIA, each Party and/or each Other Party may be joined as an additional party to an arbitration under this Deed or under any Finance Document. A joined party may make a counterclaim or cross-claim against any party to the arbitration.

(i)

Each of the Parties agrees that if it is joined to an arbitration under this Deed or under any Finance Document, it undertakes to recognise and accept any findings of fact and of law of the arbitral tribunal and shall be barred from disputing such facts or findings of law in any subsequent arbitration.

Page 22

(j)

Notwithstanding the provisions of Article 22(A) of the Rules, the tribunal shall have the power without seeking the approval of the LCIA Court to order the consolidation and to set out the procedure for consolidation of any arbitration proceedings commenced under this Deed or under any Finance Document in respect of disputes, controversies or claims which arise from the same transaction or which raise common questions of law or fact.

(k)

Any questions as to the arbitrability of any dispute, difference, controversy or claim shall be determined by the arbitral tribunal, applying English law.

(l)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this clause 17, it is agreed that the Security Agent may, at its sole option (and regardless of whether the Security Agent is claimant or respondent in the Dispute), submit any Dispute or require that any Dispute be submitted to any court with jurisdiction in accordance with clause 16 (Jurisdiction), which in that case shall have exclusive jurisdiction to determine the Dispute submitted. This paragraph (l) is for the benefit of the Security Agent only. If an arbitration has already been initiated by the Chargor in relation to such Dispute prior to the commencement of proceedings by the Security Agent in the court mentioned above, then it is agreed that, on the demand of the Security Agent, such arbitration is to be discontinued forthwith. Such demand shall be made by the Security Agent within 7 days of receipt of the request for arbitration from the Chargor. Such demand will constitute the withdrawal of the Security Agent’s consent to arbitrate with regard to that particular Dispute and it is hereby agreed that any arbitral tribunal already appointed, or to be appointed, shall no longer have jurisdiction in respect of the Dispute.
