Enforcement of security

12.1

Enforcement

At any time after the occurrence of an Event of Default (as long as it is continuing) or if the Company requests the Security Holder to exercise any of its powers under this Agreement or if a petition or application is presented for the winding up or dissolution of the Company or the making of an administration order in relation to the Company or if any person who is entitled to do so gives written notice of its intention to appoint an administrator of the Company or files such a notice with the court, the security created by or pursuant to this Agreement shall immediately become enforceable and the Security Holder may, without notice to the Company or prior authorisation from any court, in its absolute discretion enforce all or any part of that security (at the times, in the manner and on the terms it reasonably thinks fit) and take possession of and hold or dispose of all or any part of the Charged Property.

12.2

Right of appropriation

To the extent that any of the Charged Property constitutes “financial collateral” and this Agreement and the obligations of the Company under this Agreement constitute a “security financial collateral arrangement” (in each case as defined in, and for the purposes of, the Financial Collateral Arrangements (No. 2) Regulations 2003 (SI 2003 No. 3226), as amended (the “Regulations”)) the Security Holder shall have the right, at any time after the security constituted by this Agreement has become enforceable, to appropriate all or any part of such financial collateral in or towards discharge of the Secured Obligations and may exercise such right to appropriate upon giving written notice (including by email) to the Company. For this purpose, the Parties agree that the value of such financial collateral so appropriated shall be (a) in the case of cash, the amount standing to the credit of each of the Accounts, together with any accrued but unposted interest, at the time the right of appropriation is exercised; and (b) in the case of Investments, the market price of such Investments determined by the Security Holder by reference to a public index or by such other process as the Security Holder may reasonably select, including independent valuation. In each case, the Parties agree that the method of valuation provided for in this Agreement shall constitute a commercially reasonable method of valuation for the purposes of the Regulations.

12.3

Effect of moratorium

The Security Holder shall not be entitled to exercise its rights under clause 12.1 (Enforcement) or clause 4 (Crystallisation of floating charge) where the right arises as a result of an Event of Default occurring solely due to any person obtaining or taking steps to obtain a moratorium under the applicable law.

13.

All monies received or recovered by the Security Holder or any Receiver pursuant to this Agreement or the powers conferred by it shall (subject to the claims of any person having prior rights thereto and by way of variation of the provisions of the Law of Property Act 1925) be applied first in the payment of the costs, charges and expenses incurred and payments made by the Receiver, the payment of his remuneration and the discharge of any liabilities incurred by the Receiver in, or incidental to, the exercise of any of his powers, and thereafter shall be applied by the Security Holder (notwithstanding any purported appropriation by the Company) in such order and manner as the Security Holder shall reasonably think fit:

15.1.1

in or towards the discharge of all or any of the Secured Obligations which are then due and payable; or

15.1.2

if any of the Secured Obligations are then contingent, in payment to the credit of any accounts selected by the Security Holder to be held until such time as the Security Holder shall reasonably think fit pending their application in or towards the discharge of all or any of the Secured Obligations which are at that time due and payable; or

15.1.3

Protection of purchasers

Cumulative rights

No prejudice

18.6

Partial invalidity

If, at any time, any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement nor of such provision under the laws of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby and, if any part of the security intended to be created by or pursuant to this Agreement is invalid, unenforceable or ineffective for any reason, that shall not affect or impair any other part of that security.

19.

Release of security

Redemption of security

Upon the Secured Obligations being discharged in full and the Security Holder having no further actual obligation, the Security Holder shall, at the request and cost of the Company, release and cancel the security constituted by this Agreement and procure the reassignment to the Company of the property and assets assigned to the Security Holder pursuant to this Agreement, in each case subject to clause 19.2 (Avoidance of payments) and without recourse to, or any representation or warranty by, the Security Holder or any of its nominees. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, for the purposes of this Agreement, the Secured Obligations shall be considered fully discharged in full requiring the Security Holder to release and cancel the security constituted by the Agreement and procure the reassignment to the Company of the property and assets assigned to the Security Holder pursuant to this Agreement at the time the Company has repaid the Loan and/or Conversion took place.

Retention of security

Set-off

21.

Subsequent security interests

If the Security Holder at any time receives or is deemed to have received notice of any subsequent Security affecting all or any part of the Charged Property or any assignment or transfer of the Charged Property which is prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, all payments thereafter by or on behalf of the Company to the Security Holder shall be treated as having been credited to a new account of the Company and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations as at the time when the Security Holder received such notice.

27.

Discretion and Delegation

Discretion

Any liberty or power which may be exercised or any determination which may be made under this Agreement by the Security Holder or any Receiver may be exercised or made in its absolute and unfettered reasonable discretion without any obligation to give reasons.

27.2

Delegation

Each of the Security Holder and any Receiver shall have full power to delegate (either generally or specifically) the powers, authorities and discretions conferred on it by this Agreement (including the power of attorney) on such terms and conditions as it shall reasonably see fit which delegation shall not preclude either the subsequent exercise, any subsequent delegation or any revocation of such power, authority or discretion by the Security Holder or the Receiver itself.

28.

Governing law and dispute resolution

28.1

Governing law

This Agreement and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter, existence, negotiation, validity, termination, enforceability or breach (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, English law.

28.2

Arbitration

Subject to clause 28.3 (Security Holder’s option), any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination, (a “Dispute”) shall be referred to and finally resolved by the LCIA under the LCIA Rules (the “Rules”), which Rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause. The number of arbitrators shall be one (1). The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be London, the United Kingdom. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. The Parties agree that any restriction in the Rules upon the nomination or appointment of an arbitrator by reason of nationality shall not apply to any arbitration commenced pursuant to this clause. Any decision under such arbitration proceedings shall be final and binding on the Parties. The tribunal shall order an unsuccessful Party in the arbitration to pay the legal and other costs incurred in connection with the arbitration by a successful Party. Each Party consents to be joined in the arbitration commenced under the arbitration agreement set out in this clause 28.2. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 28.2 constitutes each Party’s consent to joinder in writing for the purposes of the Rules. Each Party agrees to be bound by any award rendered in the arbitration, to which it was joined pursuant to this clause 28.2. Each Party consents to the consolidation, in accordance with the Rules, of two (2) or more arbitrations commenced under the arbitration agreement set out in this clause 28.2. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 28.2 constitutes each Party’s agreement to consolidation in writing for the purposes of the Rules.

28.3

Security Holder’s option

28.3.1

Before the Security Holder has filed a request for arbitration or a response to a request for arbitration (as the case may be), the Security Holder may (in its sole discretion) require that a specific Dispute be heard by a court of law.

28.3.2

If the Security Holder elects to have a Dispute determined by a court of law pursuant to clause 28.3.1, it shall give written notice of such election (including by email) to the Company (the “Notice of Litigation”). The Security Holder may (in its sole discretion) give such Notice of Litigation (including by email) either prior or subsequent to the commencement of proceedings of the Dispute to which the Notice of Litigation refers, provided that such Notice of Litigation shall be given no later than the date on which the Company is first served with a claim form or equivalent document to commence proceedings in connection with such Dispute.

28.4

Jurisdiction

If the Security Holder elects to have a Dispute determined by a court of law pursuant to clause 28.3.1, the following shall apply:

28.4.1

subject to clause 28.4.3, the courts of England shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle such Dispute;

28.4.2

the Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle the Dispute and, accordingly, no Party shall argue to the contrary; and

28.4.3

this clause 28.4 is for the benefit of the Security Holder only. As a result and notwithstanding clause 28.4.1, the Security Holder may take proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Security Holder may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

28.5

Service of process

Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, the Company:

28.5.1

upon the written request of the Security Holder to the Company, shall irrevocably appoint the process agent as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts or any arbitration in connection with this Agreement; and

28.5.2

agrees that failure by an agent for service of process to notify the Company of the process shall not invalidate the proceedings concerned.

28.6

Waiver of immunity

The Company waives generally all immunity it or its assets or revenues may otherwise have in any jurisdiction, including immunity in respect of:

28.6.1

the giving of any relief by way of injunction or order for specific performance or for the recovery of assets or revenues; and

28.6.2

the issue of any process against its assets or revenues for the enforcement of a judgment or, in an action in rem, for the arrest, detention or sale of any of its assets and revenues.
