otherwise reassign, on a without recourse or warranty basis (other than in
respect of the Security Trustee's acts or omissions constituting negligence or
wilful default), to the Borrower or as it may direct the Charged Property from
the security hereby created.
4. CONTINUING SECURITY
(A) Continuing Obligations: The security created by this Charge shall
constitute and be a continuing security for the payment and discharge of the
Secured Debt notwithstanding any intermediate payment or settlement of account
or reduction or repayment of the Secured Debt for the time being owing or any
other matter or thing whatsoever, and shall be in addition to and shall not be
in any way prejudiced or affected by any of the other Financing Documents or any
collateral or other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or
lien of whatever nature which the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured
Parties may now or at any time hereafter have, or judgment or order obtained by
the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties, for or in respect of
all or any part of the Secured Debt nor shall any of the other Financing
Documents or any such collateral or other agreement, security, guarantee,
indemnity, right, remedy or lien or judgment or order be in any way prejudiced
or affected by this Charge.
(B) Unconditionality of Security: The security created by this Charge shall not
be discharged or affected by (1) any time, indulgence, concession, waiver or
consent at any time given to the Borrower or any other person, (2) any amendment
or supplement to or change in the terms of the Secured Debt, any of the other
Financing Documents or any other agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity,
right, remedy or lien, (3) the making or absence of any demand on the Borrower
or any other person for payment, (4) the enforcement or absence of enforcement
of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement, security,
guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien, (5) the taking, existence or
release of any of the other Financing Documents or any other agreement,
security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien, (6) the bankruptcy or
winding-up of the Borrower or any other person (or the commencement of any of
the foregoing), (7) the illegality, invalidity or unenforceability of or any
defect in any provision of any of the other Financing Documents or any other
agreement, security, guarantee, indemnity, right, remedy or lien or any of the
obligations of any of the parties thereunder or (8) any other matter or thing
which but for the provisions of this sub-Clause (B) would operate to impair or
discharge the security created by this Charge.
(C) Continuation/Opening of Accounts: In the event of the commencement of the
winding-up of the Borrower or of this Charge ceasing for any reason to be
binding on the Borrower or if the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured
Parties shall at any time receives notice (either actual or otherwise) of any
subsequent or other mortgage, charge, assignment, hypothecation, pledge, lien or
other like interest, matter, event or transaction affecting the Charged Property
or any part of it, the Security Trustee and each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties
may open a new account or accounts for the Borrower in its books. If the
Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties does not in fact open
such new account then, unless it gives express notice in writing to the Borrower
to the contrary, the Security Trustee and/or such Secured Party shall be treated
as if it had in fact opened such account or accounts at the time when it
received or is deemed to have received such notice. As from that time and unless
such express notice in writing shall be given to the Borrower by the Security
Trustee and/or each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties, all payments by or on behalf
of the Borrower to the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties
shall be credited, or treated as having been credited, to a new account of the
Borrower and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Debt at the
time when such notice was received or deemed to have been received. For the
avoidance of doubt, if a payment which would (but for this sub-Clause (C)) have
6
4
been applied in reduction of the Secured Debt in accordance with the provisions
of the Financing Documents is instead credited to a new account of the Borrower
under this sub-Clause (C), then solely for the purpose of calculating interest
accruing on the Secured Debt, the Secured Debt shall be deemed to have been
reduced by the amount of that payment in accordance with such application of
that payment.
(D) Suspense Account: Any amount received or recovered by the Security Trustee
or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties in respect of any amount received or
recovered pursuant to this Charge and/or any of the powers hereby conferred may
be placed by the Security Trustee or such Secured Party in a suspense account
(which shall be interest-bearing, where practicable) with a view to preserving
the rights of such party to prove for the whole of the Secured Debt. That amount
may be kept there (with any interest accrued being credited to that account)
unless and until the Borrower is not obliged to pay any further sum under the
Credit Agreement and the Security Trustee or such Secured Party has irrevocably
received or recovered its share of the Secured Debt.
5. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
The Borrower represents and warrants to and for the benefit of the Security
Trustee and each of the Phase 2 Secured Parties as follows:-
(1) Ownership: it is and will at all times be the sole and beneficial
owner of the Charged Property or otherwise permitted under the
Financing Documents;
(2) Existing Security: no security exists on or over any of the Charged
Property except for the security created by this Charge; and

repeated then by reference to the then existing circumstances.

to be used as and when reasonably required by the Security Trustee for
that purpose.

No assurance, security or payment which may be avoided under any law
relating to bankruptcy or insolvency and no release, settlement or discharge
given or made by the Security Trustee or any of the Phase 2 Secured Parties on
the faith of any such assurance, security or payment, shall prejudice or affect
the right of the Security Trustee to enforce the security created by this Charge
in respect of the full extent of the moneys thereby 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 Security Trustee or any of

Charge are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by
law.
(B) Waiver/Consent: Any waiver or consent by the Security Trustee under this

hereto and its successors and permitted assigns. The Borrower may not assign or
transfer all or any part of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder.
17. PARTIAL INVALIDITY
