5
8. POWERS OF CHARGEE
-----------------

enforceable either in its own name or in the name of the Chargor and
without notice to the Chargor or any other person :-
(i) Sell : to sell, exchange, convert into money or otherwise dispose
of or realise or concur in selling, exchanging, converting into
money or otherwise disposing of or realising such part of the
Charged Property as is necessary to discharge the Indebtedness
and to secure the observance and performance of the Chargor's
obligations under the Facility Agreement, the Promissory Note and
this Memorandum of Charge either by public offer or private
contract and for such consideration and on such terms as it may
think fit and so that (without prejudice to the generality of the
foregoing) it may do any of those things for a consideration
consisting of cash, debentures or other obligations, shares,
stock or other valuable consideration and any such consideration
may be payable or deliverable in a lump sum whether immediately
or on a deferred basis or by instalments spread over such period
as it may think fit;
(ii) Compromise : to settle, adjust, refer to arbitration, compromise
and arrange any claims, accounts, disputes, questions and demands

expedient; and

consider necessary or desirable for the realising of the Charged
Property or any part thereof or incidental or conducive to any of
the matters, powers or authorities conferred on it under or by
virtue of this Memorandum of Charge and to exercise in relation
to the Charged Property or any part thereof all such powers,
authorities and things as it would be capable of exercising if it
were the absolute beneficial owner of the same.
In any sale or disposal referred to in paragraph (i), the Lender may itself
purchase the Charged Property or any part thereof free from any right of
redemption on the part of the Chargor which is hereby waived and released.
(B) Third Parties : The Chargor agrees that, upon any sale or disposal of
the Charged Property or any part thereof which the Lender shall make
or purport to make under the provisions of this Charge, a statement in
writing from the Lender that the security created by this Charge has
become enforceable and that the power of sale has become exercisable
shall be conclusive evidence of the fact in favour of any purchaser or
other person to whom any of the Charged Property may be transferred
and such purchaser or other person will take the same free of any
rights of the Chargor. The Chargor undertakes to indemnify the Lender
against any claim which may be made against the Lender by such
purchaser or any other person by reason of any defect in its title to
the Charged Property.
(C) Powers Additional : The powers conferred by this Memorandum of Charge
in relation to the Charged Property or any part thereof on the Lender
shall be in addition to and not in substitution for the powers
conferred on mortgagees under law, which shall apply to the security
created by this Memorandum of Charge except insofar as they are
6
expressly or impliedly excluded. Where there is any ambiguity or
conflict between the powers conferred by law and those conferred by
this Memorandum of Charge as aforesaid, then the terms of this
Memorandum of Charge shall prevail to the extent that the law permits
derogation or waiver of a power conferred by law.
(D) Certificates Conclusive : A certificate by the Lender as to any sum
payable to it under this Memorandum of Charge, and any other
certificate, determination, notification or opinion of the Lender
provided for in this Memorandum of Charge, shall be conclusive in the

Charge in relation to the Charged Property or any part thereof and any such
delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions (including power to
sub-delegate) and subject to such regulations as the Lender may think fit

misconduct on the part of any such delegate or sub-delegate.

other reason whatsoever be liable to account to the Chargor or any
other person for anything except the Lender's own actual receipts or
be liable to the Chargor or any other person for any loss or damage or
diminution in price arising from any realisation by the Lender of the
Charged Property or any part thereof or from any act, default or
omission of the Lender in relation to the Charged Property or from any
exercise or non-exercise by the Lender of any power, authority or
discretion conferred upon it in relation to the Charged Property or
any part thereof by or pursuant to this Memorandum of Charge unless
such loss or damage shall be caused by the Lender's own fraud.
7
(B) Delegate : All the provisions of sub-Clause (A) above shall apply in
respect of the liability of any such delegate or sub-delegate as
aforesaid in all respects as though every reference in the said
sub-Clause (A) to the Lender were instead a reference to such delegate
or sub-delegate.
12. FURTHER ASSURANCE
-----------------
The Chargor shall at its own expense execute and do all such assurances,
acts and things as the Lender may reasonably require facilitating the
realisation of the Charged Property and the exercise of all powers,
authorities and discretions vested in the Lender or in any such delegate or
sub-delegate as aforesaid and shall in particular execute all transfers,
conveyances, assignments and assurances of such property (whether to the
Lender or to its nominees) and give all notices, orders and directions
which the Lender may think expedient. For the purposes of this Clause, a
certificate in writing by the Lender to the effect that any particular
assurance, act or thing required by it is reasonably required shall be
conclusive evidence of such fact.

appoints the Lender and every such delegate or sub-delegate as
aforesaid to be its attorney and on its behalf and in its name or

and discretions conferred by or pursuant to this Memorandum of Charge
on the Lender or any such delegate or sub-delegate and (without

ratify and confirm whatever any such attorney as is mentioned in
sub-Clause (A) above shall do or purport to do in the exercise or
purported exercise of all or any of the powers, authorities and
discretions referred to in sub-Clause.
14. PROTECTION OF THIRD PARTIES
---------------------------
No person dealing with the Lender or with any such delegate or sub-delegate
as aforesaid shall be concerned to enquire whether any event has happened
upon which any of the powers, authorities and discretions conferred by or
pursuant to this Memorandum of Charge in relation to the Charged Property
or any part thereof are or may be exercisable by the Lender or by any such
delegate or sub-delegate or otherwise as to propriety or regularity of acts
purporting or intended to be in exercise of any such powers.
15. AVOIDANCE OF PAYMENTS
---------------------
No assurance, security or payment which may be avoided under any law
relating to winding-up or insolvency and no release, settlement or
discharge given or made by the Lender on the faith of any such assurance,
security or payment, shall prejudice or affect its right to enforce the
security created by this Memorandum of Charge in respect of the full extent
of the moneys hereby secured. Any such release, settlement or discharge
shall be deemed to be made subject to the condition that it will be void,
if any payment or security which the Lender may previously have received or
may thereafter receive from any person in respect of the Indebtedness, is
set aside under any applicable law or proves to have been for any reason
invalid.
8
16. REMEDIES, WAIVERS AND CONSENTS
------------------------------
(A) Rights/Remedies : No failure on the part of the Lender to exercise,
and no delay on its part in exercising, any right or remedy under this
Memorandum of Charge will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any
single or partial exercise of any right or remedy preclude any other
or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or
remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Memorandum of Charge
are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by
law.
(B) Waiver/Consent : Any waiver or consent by the Lender under this
Memorandum of Charge must be in writing and may be given subject to
any conditions thought fit by the person giving that waiver or
consent. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the instance
and for the purpose for which it is given.

hereto and its successors and assigns. The Chargor may assign or transfer
all or any part of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder with the
prior written consent of the Lender.
18. PARTIAL INVALIDITY
------------------
The illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this
Memorandum of Charge under the law of any jurisdiction shall not affect its
legality, validity or enforceability under the law of any other
jurisdiction nor the legality, validity or enforceability of any other
provision.

Memorandum of Charge shall be made by facsimile, telex or otherwise in
