Arbitration Proceedings Arbitration between the parties will be subject to the following:
Proceedings Borrower has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. This Agreement and such other Loan Documents have been duly executed and delivered by or on behalf of Borrower and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Borrower enforceable against Borrower in accordance with their respective terms, subject only to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency and similar laws affecting rights of creditors generally, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).
Appeal (1) An appeal against a decision of the Court of First Instance may be brought before the Court of Appeal by any party which has been unsuccessful, in whole or in part, in its submissions, within two months of the date of the notification of the decision.
Court Proceedings Subject to the terms of this Agreement, First Majestic will cooperate with and assist Silvermex in seeking the Interim Order and the Final Order, including by providing Silvermex on a timely basis any information reasonably required to be supplied by First Majestic in connection therewith. Silvermex will provide legal counsel to First Majestic with reasonable opportunity to review and comment upon drafts of all material to be filed with the Court in connection with the Arrangement, and will give reasonable consideration to all such comments. Subject to applicable Law, Silvermex will not file any material with the Court in connection with the Arrangement or serve any such material, and will not agree to modify or amend materials so filed or served, except as contemplated by this Section 2.6 or with First Majestic’s prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that nothing herein shall require First Majestic to agree or consent to any increase in consideration or other modification or amendment to such filed or served materials that expands or increases First Majestic’s obligations set forth in any such filed or served materials or under this Agreement or the Arrangement. Silvermex shall also provide to First Majestic’s legal counsel on a timely basis copies of any notice of appearance or other Court documents served on Silvermex in respect of the application for the Interim Order or the Final Order or any appeal therefrom and of any notice, whether written or oral, received by Silvermex indicating any intention to oppose the granting of the Interim Order or the Final Order or to appeal the Interim Order or the Final Order. Silvermex will ensure that all materials filed with the Court in connection with the Arrangement are consistent in all material respects with the terms of this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement. In addition, Silvermex will not object to legal counsel to First Majestic making such submissions on the hearing of the motion for the Interim Order and the application for the Final Order as such counsel considers appropriate; provided, however, that Silvermex is advised of the nature of any submissions prior to the hearing and such submissions are consistent with this Agreement and the Plan of Arrangement. Silvermex will also oppose any proposal from any party that the Final Order contain any provision inconsistent with this Agreement, and, if at any time after the issuance of the Final Order and prior to the Effective Date, Silvermex is required by the terms of the Final Order or by Law to return to Court with respect to the Final Order, it shall do so after notice to, and in consultation and cooperation with, First Majestic.
