In such circumstances, any existing nomination or confirmation of an arbitrator shall be unaffected, and the remaining arbitrator(s) shall be appointed in accordance with this Clause 11.3. Each party expressly agrees and consents to this process for nominating and appointing the arbitrators.

11.4	The seat, or legal place, of arbitration shall be Hong Kong.

11.5	The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English.

11.6	The governing law of this arbitration agreement shall be English law.

11.7	The arbitration award shall be final and binding on the parties, and the parties undertake to carry out any award without delay. Except as provided in Clause 11.8, judgment upon the award may be entered by any court having jurisdiction over the award or over the relevant party or its assets.

11.8

Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that it shall not, and it shall procure that its Affiliates shall not, bring any action, claim or proceedings in any court in Russia (including pursuant to Articles 248.1 and 248.2 of the Arbitrazh Procedure Code of the Russian Federation) or in any other jurisdiction or dispute resolution forum other than (i) as set out in Clause 11.2 in relation to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated therein or (ii) any enforcement proceeding in relation to an arbitral award obtained in accordance with Clause 11.2 (each such restricted action, claim or proceeding, a “Restricted Party Claim”).

11.9

Each Party hereby covenants with each other Party to hold such Party and its Affiliates harmless and on such Party’s demand to indemnify such Party and its Affiliates for and against (and hereby covenants on such Party’s demand to pay such Party and its Affiliates an amount equal to) all documented losses, liabilities, claims, actions, demands, damages or costs and expenses (including documented fees of external legal advisers) incurred by such Party or any of its Affiliates resulting from or arising out of or in connection with a Restricted Party Claim of the Party giving the covenant hereunder (or a Restricted Party Claim of an Affiliate of such Party).

11.10

Any Party to this Agreement serving a notice of arbitration shall send a copy of that notice to every other Party.

Any Party that is not already a party to the arbitration may intervene as a party to the arbitration to defend against a claim or to assert against any other Party a substantially related claim. Any joined or intervening Party shall be bound by any award rendered by the arbitration tribunal even if such Party chooses not to participate

in the arbitration proceedings. Any joinder or intervention pursuant to this Clause shall be made by serving written notice on all Parties within thirty (30) days from receipt of the notice of arbitration to which the joinder or intervention relates. The arbitral tribunal shall resolve any disputes as to whether the joinder or intervention is admissible under the terms of this Clause and whether and to what extent any other pending arbitration proceedings between Parties shall be stayed or discontinued in the interest of efficiency. The tribunal’s decision shall be binding. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “claim” as used in this Clause includes any claim, counterclaim, crossclaim, or claim by or against a joined or intervening Party.

11.11

In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, and upon request of any party to the arbitration proceeding, the arbitration tribunal may consolidate the arbitration proceeding with any other arbitration proceeding relating to this Agreement or any related agreement (s). The arbitration tribunal shall not consolidate such arbitrations unless it determines that (i) there are issues of fact or law common to the two proceedings such that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings, and (ii) no party would be prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise.

11.12

Without prejudice to Clause 11.11 above, claims arising out of or in connection with this Agreement may be made in a single arbitration.
