Arbitration and Jurisdiction (a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to (1) this Agreement, (2) the breach, termination or invalidity hereof or (3) any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules as at present in force. There shall be one arbitrator and the appointing authority shall be LCIA (London Court of International Arbitration). The seat and place of arbitration shall be London, England and the English language shall be used throughout the arbitral proceedings. The parties hereby waive any rights under the Arbitration Xxx 0000 or otherwise to appeal any arbitration award to, or to seek determination of a preliminary point of law by, the courts of England. The arbitral tribunal shall not be authorised to grant, and the Borrower agrees that it shall not seek from any judicial authority, any interim measures or pre-award relief against EBRD, any provisions of the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules notwithstanding. The arbitral tribunal shall have authority to consider and include in any proceeding, decision or award any further dispute properly brought before it by EBRD (but no other party) insofar as such dispute arises out of any Financing Agreement, but, subject to the foregoing, no other parties or other disputes shall be included in, or consolidated with, the arbitral proceedings. In any arbitral proceeding, the certificate of EBRD as to any amount due to EBRD under any Financing Agreement shall be prima facie evidence of such amount.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 8.09(a), this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, and any rights of EBRD arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, may, at the option of EBRD, be enforced by EBRD in the courts of England and Wales or in any other courts having jurisdiction. For the benefit of EBRD, the Borrower hereby irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England with respect to any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity hereof or thereof. The Borrower hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Trident Company Services (UK) Limited at its registered office (being, on the date hereof, at 0 Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx X0X 0XX, Xxxxxxx) to act as its authorised agent to receive service of process and any other legal summons in England for purposes of any legal action or proceeding brought by EBRD in respect of any Financing Agreement. Failure by a process agent to notify the Borrower of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. The Borrower hereby irrevocably consents to the service of process or any other legal summons out of such courts by mailing copies thereof by registered airmail postage prepaid to its address specified herein. The Borrower covenants and agrees that, so long as it has any obligations under this Agreement, it shall maintain a duly appointed agent to receive service of process and any other legal summons in England for purposes of any legal action or proceeding brought by EBRD in respect of any Financing Agreement and shall keep EBRD advised of the identity and location of such agent. Nothing herein shall affect the right of EBRD to commence legal actions or proceedings against the Borrower in any manner authorised by the laws of any relevant jurisdiction. The commencement by EBRD of legal actions or proceedings in one or more jurisdictions shall not preclude EBRD from commencing legal actions or proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not. The Borrower irrevocably waives any objection it may now or hereafter have on any grounds whatsoever to the laying of venue of any legal action or proceeding and any claim it may now or hereafter have that any such legal action or proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum.
