For the purposes of determining the price of any capital contribution, the Sugar and Ethanol Co shall be valued on a fair market value basis based on its Base Value (as defined in the Joint Venture Agreement) utilizing the procedures and terms and conditions set forth and referred to in clause 18 (Valuation and Base Value) of the Joint Venture Agreement; provided that, if the funds to be provided from a capital call are required more urgently than within the period it would take for such a valuation to be completed, funds may be paid on account by way of a loan by the Shareholder to the Sugar and Ethanol Co convertible into shares upon completion of such valuation.
