3.5.3 otherwise, at such time, on such date, to such person and in such place as may have been agreed between the Issuer and the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent.

Upon payment for any such Securities being made to the Fiscal Agent, it shall transfer such payment to the account of the Issuer notified to it by the Issuer.

Upon payment for any such Securities being made to the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent, it shall transfer such payment to the account of the Issuer notified to it by the Issuer.

Such Interest shall be compounded daily.

3.9 Exchange for Permanent Global Securities and Definitive Securities:

3.9.1 On and after the due date for exchange of any temporary Global Security which is exchangeable for a permanent Global Security, the Fiscal Agent or, in the case of Securities cleared through the CMU Service, the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent shall, on presentation to it or to its order of the temporary Global Security, complete a permanent Global Security, authenticate it (or cause its agent on its behalf to do so) and procure the exchange of interests in such temporary Global Security for interests in an equal nominal amount of such permanent Global Security in accordance with such temporary Global Security. If a temporary Global Security is not to be exchanged in full, the Fiscal Agent, or in the case of Securities cleared through the CMU Service, the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent, shall, endorse, or procure the endorsement of, a memorandum of the principal amount of such temporary Global Security exchanged in the appropriate schedule to the temporary Global Security and shall return the temporary Global Security to the bearer. On exchange in full of a temporary Global Security the Fiscal Agent, or in the case of Securities cleared through the CMU Service, the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent shall cancel it.

Save in the case of manifest error, the CMU Lodging and Paying Agent shall be entitled to rely on any CMU Instrument Position Report (as defined in the CMU Rules) or any other statement by the CMU Service of the identities and interests of persons credited with interests in the temporary Global Security. No person shall be entitled to receive any payment on the temporary Global Security unless (i) the exchange of the temporary Global Security for the relevant interest in the permanent Global Security is improperly withheld or refused by or on behalf of the Issuer or (ii) the sole reason for delay in exchange of the temporary Global Security is the refusal of the CMU Service to permit exchange of the temporary Global Security in part.

The Issuer may however adopt and use the signature of any person who at the date of signing a Security, Certificate, Receipt, Coupon or Talon is a duly authorised signatory of the Issuer even if, before the Security, Certificate, Receipt, Coupon or Talon is issued, he ceases for whatever reason to hold such office and the Securities, Certificates, Receipts, Coupons or Talons issued in such circumstances shall nevertheless be (or, in the case of Certificates, represent) valid and binding obligations of the Issuer.

20.2 Deemed Receipt: Any communication from any party to any other under this Agreement shall be effective, (if by telex) when a confirmed answerback is received at the end of the transmission, (if by fax) when the relevant delivery receipt is received by the sender, (if in writing) when delivered and (if by electronic communication) when the relevant receipt of such communication being read is given, or where no read receipt is requested by the sender, at the time of sending, provided that no delivery failure notification is received by the sender within 24 hours of sending such communication; provided that any communication which is received (or deemed to take effect in accordance with the foregoing) outside business hours or on a non-business day in the place of receipt shall be deemed to take effect at the opening of business on the next following business day in such place. Any communication delivered to any party under this Agreement which is to be sent by telex, fax or electronic communication will be written legal evidence.

20.3 Indemnity: The Issuer hereby acknowledges that it is fully aware of the risk associated with transmitting instructions via fax, and being aware of these risks authorises any Agent to accept and act upon any instruction sent to the Agent in the name of the Issuer or in the name of one or more appropriate authorised signers of the Issuer via fax. Any Agent shall be entitled to the benefit of the provisions of Clause 16.1 (Indemnity) when accepting or acting upon any instructions, communications or documents transmitted by fax, and shall not be liable in the event any fax transmission is not received, or is mutilated, illegible, interrupted, duplicated, incomplete, unauthorised or delayed for any reason, including (but not limited to) electronic or telecommunications failure.

20.4 Reliance on communications: Each Agent may conclusively rely on and shall be fully authorised and protected in acting or omitting to act upon or in reliance on the written and facsimile instructions of and communications from the Issuer or any other person with respect to any matter covered in this Agreement and/or the Securities or on any certificate, instrument, opinion, notice, letter, telegram, facsimile, e-mail, telex, or other document or instrument (including, without limitation, a message received from or through a Clearing System), original or copy, delivered or faxed or sent electronically to it and believed by it to be genuine and to have been sent by the proper person or persons.

Each Agent shall have no duty or obligation to verify or confirm that the person who sent such instructions or directions is, in fact, a person authorised to give instructions or directions on behalf of the Issuer (other than to verify that the signature on a fax is the signature of a person authorised to give instructions and directions on behalf of the Issuer) and shall have no liability for any losses, liabilities, costs or expenses properly incurred or sustained by Issuer as a result of such reliance upon or compliance with such instructions or directions. The Issuer agrees to assume all risks arising out of the use of any electronic communications to submit instructions and directions to the Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Agent acting on unauthorised instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties. The Issuer agrees that the indemnity set out in Clause 16.1 (Indemnity) shall apply in respect of any loss or liability suffered by any Agent as a result of acting upon instructions and directions sent by electronic communications.

22 Amendments

The parties to this Agreement may modify, waive or authorise any breach or proposed breach of or any failure to comply with, this Agreement, if to do so could not reasonably be expected to be prejudicial to the interests of the Securityholders. For the avoidance of doubt, none of the Agents shall have any responsibility or liability whatsoever with respect to any determination as to prejudice applying to the interests of the Securityholders pursuant to this Clause 22.

23 Governing Law and Jurisdiction

23.1 Governing Law: This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it shall be governed by and construed in accordance with English law.

23.2 Submission to Jurisdiction: In relation to any legal action or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (“Proceedings”), each of the Issuer and the Agents irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts and waives any objection to Proceedings in such courts whether on the ground of venue or on the ground that the Proceedings have been brought in an inconvenient forum.

23.3 Process Agent: The Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited of Xxxxx Xxxxx, Xxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx XX0X 0XX, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx as its agent to accept service of process in any Proceedings in England in connection herewith. Such service shall be deemed completed on delivery to such process agent (whether or not it is forwarded to and received by the Issuer). If for any reason such process agent ceases to be able to act as such or no longer has an address in London, the Issuer irrevocably agrees to appoint a substitute process agent acceptable to the Agents, and to deliver to the Agents a copy of the new agent’s acceptance of that appointment, within 30 days. Nothing shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
