or the exercise of its powers and duties hereunder which it suffers or
incurs otherwise than by reason of its own default, gross negligence or
wilful misconduct. This Clause 2.7 shall survive the termination of this
Agreement and the payment in full of all obligations under the Notes and

contained in this Agreement. The Guarantor shall pay to the Remarketing
Dealers from time to time on demand any sum of money which the Issuer is at
any time liable to pay to the Remarketing Dealers under or pursuant to this
Agreement and has failed to pay such sum when due and which remains unpaid
at the time the demand is made. The Guarantor's obligations under this
clause are primary obligations and not those of a mere surety. If an
obligation of the Issuer is void, voidable or unenforceable for any reason,
the Guarantor's obligations under this clause are unaffected and the
Guarantor shall perform the Issuer's obligations as if it were primarily
liable for the performance.
6.2 The Guarantor's obligations under this clause are continuing obligations
and are not satisfied, discharged or affected by an intermediate payment or
settlement of account by, or a change in the constitution or control of, or
the insolvency of, or bankruptcy, winding up or analogous proceedings
relating to, the Issuer.
6.3 The Guarantor's liability under this clause is not affected by an
arrangement which the Remarketing Dealers may make with the Issuer or with
another person which (but for this clause) might operate to diminish or
discharge the liability of or otherwise provide a defence to a surety.
6.4 Without affecting the generality of the foregoing provisions, the
Remarketing Dealers may at any time as they think fit and without reference
to the Guarantor:
(a) grant a time for payment or grant another indulgence or agree to an
amendment, variation, waiver or release in respect of an obligation of
the Issuer under this Agreement;
(b) give up, deal with, vary, exchange or abstain from perfecting or
enforcing other securities or guarantees held by the Remarketing
Dealers;
(c) discharge a party to other securities or guarantees held by the
Remarketing Dealers and realise all or any of those securities or
guarantees; and
(d) compound with, accept compositions from and make other arrangements
with the Issuer or a person or persons liable on other securities or
guarantees held or to be held by the Remarketing Dealers.
6.5 So long as the Issuer is under any actual or contingent obligation under
this Agreement the Guarantor shall not exercise a right which it may at any
time have by reason of the performance of its obligations under Clause 6.1
to be indemnified by the Issuer, to claim a contribution from another
surety of the Issuer's obligations or to take the benefit (wholly or partly
and by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any of the Remarketing Dealers'
rights under this Agreement or of any other security taken by the
Remarketing Dealers in connection with this Agreement.
6.6 The Guarantor's liability under Clause 6.1 is not affected by the avoidance
of an assurance, security or payment or a release, settlement or discharge
9
which is given or made on the faith of an assurance, security or payment,
in either case, under an enactment relating to bankruptcy or insolvency.
7. COSTS
Except where this Agreement provides otherwise, each party shall pay its
own costs relating to the negotiation, preparation, execution and
implementation by it of this Agreement and of each document referred to in
it.
8. GENERAL
8.1 This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes any
previous agreement, between the parties relating to the subject matter of
this Agreement.
8.2 A variation of this Agreement is valid only if it is in writing and signed
by or on behalf of each party.
8.3 A failure to exercise or delay in exercising a right or remedy provided by
this Agreement or by law does not constitute a waiver of the right or
remedy or a waiver of other rights or remedies. No single or partial
exercise of a right or remedy provided by this Agreement or by law prevents
further exercise of the right or remedy or the exercise of another right or
remedy.
8.4 The rights and remedies contained in this Agreement are cumulative and not
exclusive of rights or remedies provided by law.
8.5 Each date, time or period referred to in this Agreement is of the essence.
If the parties agree in writing to vary a date, time or period, the varied
date, time or period is of the essence.
8.6 Save as otherwise expressly provided herein, this agreement does not create
any partnership between any of the parties or makes a party the agent of
another party for any purpose, and a party has no authority or power to
bind, to contract in the name of, or to create a liability for another
party in any way or for any purpose.
8.7 Except to the extent that they have been performed, the provisions of this
Agreement remain in force notwithstanding any assignment as contemplated
herein.
9. ASSIGNMENT
9.1 Save as otherwise provided herein, a party may not assign or transfer or
purport to assign or transfer a right or obligation, or subcontract the
performance of any of its obligations, under this Agreement. The foregoing
restriction shall not restrict the rights of the Remarketing Dealers to
sell or otherwise deal with Notes to be acquired pursuant to the Purchase
Rights.
9.2 Each party is entering into this Agreement for its benefit and not for the
benefit of another person.
