(a) The Pledgor shall be liable to indemnify the Pledgeholder on demand against any loss or expense sustained or incurred by the Pledgeholder as a result of:
(i)
|
a failure by the Pledgor to perform any of its obligations under this Agreement; or
|
(ii)
|
any representation or warranty made in this Agreement by the Pledgor having been untrue, incorrect or misleading when made.
|
(b) The indemnities contained in this Agreement, including this Section 14.06 and Article XII (Indemnity), shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
Section 14.07. Rights, Remedies and Waivers
(a) For the avoidance of doubt, any misrepresentation or breach of any
right or remedy hereunder by the Pledgor shall be deemed a Default;
(b) The rights and remedies of the Pledgeholder in relation to any misrepresentation or breach of warranty on the part of the Pledgor shall not be prejudiced by any investigation by or on behalf of the Pledgeholder into the affairs of the Pledgor, by the execution or the performance of this Agreement or by any other act or thing which may be done by or on behalf of the Pledgeholder in connection with this Agreement and which might, apart from this Section, prejudice such rights or remedies.
(c) No course of dealing and no delay in exercising, or omission to exercise, any right, power or remedy accruing to the Pledgeholder upon any default under this Agreement or any other agreement shall impair any such right, power or remedy or be construed to be a waiver thereof or an acquiescence therein. No single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. No action of the Pledgeholder in respect of any such default, or acquiescence by them therein, shall affect or impair any
41
right, power or remedy of the Pledgeholder in respect of any other default.
(d) The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies, whether provided by Applicable Law or otherwise.
(e) In addition to the Pledgeholder's right to out-of court sale of the Pledged Property upon Default, the Pledgeholder may proceed to protect and enforce their rights hereunder in any court or other tribunal by an action at law, suit in equity or other appropriate proceedings, whether for damages, the specific performance of any term hereof or otherwise, or in aid of the exercise of any power granted hereby or by law. The Pledgor hereby agrees to pay to the Pledgeholder on demand such amount in the Loan Currency as shall be sufficient to reimburse the Pledgeholder for its costs and expenses related to, or arising out of, any such action or remedies, including, reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel.
Section 14.08. Governing Law
This Agreement and the rights and obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Kazakhstan (including any international treaties to which Kazakhstan is a party and which are in force in the territory of Kazakhstan).
Section 14.09. Arbitration and Jurisdiction
(a) Any dispute, controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach, termination or invalidity hereof, shall be settled by arbitration in accordance with the UNCITRAL Arbitration Rules as at present in force. There shall be one (1) 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
42
of England. The arbitral tribunal shall not be authorised to take or provide, and the Pledgor agrees that it shall not seek from any judicial authority, any interim measures of protection or pre-award relief against the Pledgeholder, 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 the Pledgeholder (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 the Pledgeholder as to any amount due to the Pledgeholder under any Financing Agreement shall be prima facie evidence of such amount.
(b) Notwithstanding Section 14.09(a), this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, and any rights of the Pledgeholder arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, may, at the option of the Pledgeholder, be enforced by the Pledgeholder in the courts of Kazakhstan or in any other courts having jurisdiction. For the benefit of the Pledgeholder, the Pledgor 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 Pledgor 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 Pledgor 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 the Pledgeholder in respect of any Financing Agreement and shall keep the Pledgeholder advised of the identity and location of such agent. Nothing herein shall affect the rights of the Pledgeholder to commence legal actions or proceedings against the Pledgor in any manner authorised by the laws of any relevant jurisdiction. The commencement by the Pledgeholder of legal actions or proceedings in one or more jurisdictions shall not preclude the Pledgeholder from commencing legal actions or proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether concurrently or not. The Pledgor
43
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.
Section 14.10. Privileges and Immunities of the Pledgeholder
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a waiver, renunciation or other modification of any immunities, privileges or exemptions of the Pledgeholder accorded under the Agreement Establishing the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, international convention or any Applicable Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Pledgeholder has made an express submission to arbitration under Section 14.09(a) and accordingly, and without prejudice to its other privileges and immunities (including, without limitation, the inviolability of its archives), it acknowledges that it does not have immunity from suit and legal process under Article 5(2) of Statutory Instrument 1991, No. 757 (The European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (Immunities and Privileges) Order 1991), or any similar provision under English law, in respect of the enforcement of an arbitration award duly made against it as a result of its express submission to arbitration pursuant to Section 14.09(a).
Section 14.11. Waiver of Sovereign Immunity
The Pledgor represents and warrants to the Pledgeholder that this Agreement, the Loan Agreement, and any other Financing Agreements and the undertakings by the Pledgor under any such Financing Agreements to which it is a party are commercial rather than public or governmental acts and that the Pledgor is not entitled to claim immunity from legal proceedings with respect to itself or any of its assets on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise under any Applicable Law or in any jurisdiction where an action may be brought for the enforcement of any of the obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements. To the extent that the Pledgor or any of its assets has or hereafter may acquire any right to immunity from setoff, legal proceedings, attachment prior to judgment, other attachment or execution of judgment on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise, the Pledgor hereby irrevocably
44
waives such rights to immunity in respect of its obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement, the Loan Agreement or any other Financing Agreements.
Section 14.12. Reliance
The Pledgor acknowledges that the Pledgeholder is entering into this Agreement, and has acted, solely in its capacity as a lender under the Loan Agreement, and not as an advisor to the Pledgor. The Pledgor represents and warrants that, in entering into this Agreement, it has engaged and relied upon advice given to it by its own legal, financial and other professional advisors and it has not relied on and will not hereafter rely on any advice given to it by the Pledgeholder.
