(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Yen into Dollars, the parties agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Bank could purchase Yen with Dollars at the Bank’s principal office in London at 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
-12-
(b) The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in Yen to the Bank hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Bank of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, the Bank may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase Yen with such other currency; if the amount of Yen so purchased is less than such sum due to the Bank in Yen, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Bank against such loss, and if the amount of Yen so purchased exceeds such sum due to the Bank in Yen, the Bank agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.
