retain any profits or remuneration it receives under the Finance Documents or in relation to any other business it carries on with an Obligor or its related entities.

the enforcement of any Security Document.

(i)

any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control; or

(ii)

the general risks of investment in, or the holding of assets in, any jurisdiction,

including (in each case and without limitation) such damages, costs, losses, diminution in value or liability arising as a result of nationalisation, expropriation or other governmental actions; any regulations, currency restriction or fluctuation; market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions or the value of assets (including any Disruption Event); breakdown, failure or malfunction of any third party transport, telecommunications, computer services or systems; natural disasters or acts of God; war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; or strikes or industrial action.

(c)

it must promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

25.10

Each Agent must promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to it by a Party for that person. Without prejudice to clause 31.4 (Procedure for assignment of right) and 31.5(e) (Procedure for transferring using a Transfer Certificate), this clause shall not apply to any assignment of rights or Transfer Certificate.

(b)	No Agent is obliged to review or check the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any document it forwards to another Party.

(c)	Except as provided above, no Agent has any duty:

(i)

either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the risks arising under or in connection with the Finance Documents (including any information relating to the financial condition or affairs of any Obligor or its related entities or the nature or extent of recourse against any Party or its assets) whether coming into its possession before, on or after the date of this Agreement; or

(ii)

unless specifically requested to do so by a Lender in accordance with a Finance Document, to request any certificate or other document from any Obligor.

(d)

In acting as an Agent, that Agent will be regarded as acting through its agency division which will be treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired by an Agent which, in its opinion, is acquired by another division or department or otherwise than in its capacity as an Agent may be treated as confidential by it and will not be treated as information possessed it in its capacity as such.

Without limiting the liability of any Obligor under the Finance Documents, each Lender shall indemnify each Agent, Receiver and its respective Delegate for that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any cost, loss or liability incurred by any of them in acting as the relevant Agent, Receiver or its respective Delegate (unless the relevant party has been reimbursed by an Obligor under a Finance Document), except to the extent that the loss or liability is caused by the relevant Agent’s, Receiver’s or its respective Delegate’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(b)	If a Party owes an amount to an Agent under the Finance Documents, that Agent may, after giving notice to that Party:

(i)

Compliance etc.

Notwithstanding any provision of any other Finance Document to the contrary, no Administrative Party is obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would or might, in its opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation.

Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, an Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Notwithstanding anything in any Finance Document to the contrary, an Agent shall not do, or be authorized or required to do, anything which might constitute a regulated activity for the purpose of Part 1 of Schedule 5 of the Securities and Futures Ordinance (Cap. 571 of the laws of Hong Kong) (the “SFO”), unless it is authorized under the SFO to do so. The Security Trustee shall have the discretion at any time:

(i)

to delegate any of the functions which fall to be performed by an authorised person under the SFO to any other Agent or person which also has the necessary authorisations and licences; and

(ii)

to apply for authorisation under the SFO and perform any or all such functions itself if, in its absolute discretion, it considers it necessary, desirable or appropriate to do so.

(iii)

no Finance Party (other than that Agent) has notified the Facility Agent that it is not satisfied with the credit worthiness of the proposed successor Agent within seven days of the Agent’s notification under paragraph (a) above.

On satisfaction of the above conditions the successor Agent will succeed to the position of an Agent and the term Facility Agent, Security Trustee or Issuing Bank will mean the successor Facility Agent, Security Trustee or, as the case may be, Issuing Bank.

(i)

make available to the successor Agent those documents and records and provide any assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as an Agent under the Finance Documents; and

The retiring Agent shall not be required to bear any transfer or assignment costs and expenses.

(g)

An Obligor must, at its own cost take any action and enter into and deliver any document which is required by the relevant Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) to ensure that a Security Document provides for effective and perfected Security Interests in favour of any relevant successor Agent.

Upon its resignation becoming effective, this clause will continue to benefit the retiring Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Finance Documents while it was an Agent, and, subject to paragraph (f) above, it will have no further obligations under any Finance Document but shall remain entitled to the benefit of any rights to indemnification it may have and this Clause 25 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date). Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations among themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

(i)	The Majority Lenders may, by notice to an Agent, require it to resign under paragraph (b) above.

25.14

(i)

The Facility Agent must keep a record of all the Parties and, subject to sub-paragraph (ii) below, supply any other Party with a copy of the record on request. The record will include each Lender’s Facility Office(s) and contact details for the purposes of this Agreement.

Such action may include but is not limited to the interception and investigation of transactions on accounts (particularly those involving the international transfer of funds) including the source of the intended recipient of fund paid into or out of accounts. In certain circumstances, such action may delay or prevent the processing of instructions, the settlement of transactions over the accounts of the Agent’s performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents. Where possible, the Agent will use reasonable endeavours to notify the relevant parties of the existence of such circumstances. Neither the Agent nor any delegate of the Agent will be liable for any loss (whether direct or consequential and including, without limitation, loss of profit or interest) caused in whole or in part by any actions which are taken by the Agent or any delegate of the Agent pursuant to this Clause.

25.18

25.19

Waiver of consequential damages

Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting an Agent’s liability, any liability of an Agent arising under or in connection with any Finance Document shall be limited to the amount of actual loss which has been suffered (as determined by reference to the date of default of the Agent or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any special conditions or circumstances known to the Agent at any time which increase the amount of that loss. Notwithstanding any other term or provision of this Agreement to

the contrary, no Agent shall be liable under any circumstances for special, punitive, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever including but not limited to loss of profits, whether or not foreseeable, even if an Agent is actually aware of or has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of whether the claim for such loss or damage is made in negligence, for breach of contract, breach of trust, breach of fiduciary obligation or otherwise. The provisions of this subclause shall survive the termination or expiry of this Agreement or the resignation or removal of an Agent.

Wherever it is processed by the Agent or its agents or delegates within the HSBC Group, the personal data will be protected security measures and a degree of care to which all members of the HSBC Group and their staff are subject and will only be used in accordance with the relevant Obligor’s and/or, as the case may be Finance Party’s instructions.

33.

SET-OFF

A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation owed to it by an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to an Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

34.

PRO RATA SHARING

34.1

Redistribution

If a Finance Party (the recovering Finance Party) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with this Agreement (a recovery) and applies that amount to a payment due under a Finance Document, then:

(a)	the recovering Finance Party must, within three Business Days, supply details of the recovery to the Facility Agent;

(b)

the Facility Agent must calculate whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Finance Party would have received if the recovery had been received and distributed by the Facility Agent in accordance with this Agreement without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility Agent in relation to a recovery or distribution; and

(c)

the recovering Finance Party must pay to the Facility Agent an amount equal to the excess (the redistribution) less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with clause 17.7 (Partial Payments).

34.2

Effect of redistribution

(a)	The Facility Agent must treat a redistribution as if it were a payment by the relevant Obligor under this Agreement and distribute it among the Finance Parties (other than the recovering Finance Party) in accordance with clause 17.7 (Partial payments).

(b)	When the Facility Agent makes a distribution under paragraph (a) above, the recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties which have shared in that redistribution.

(c)	If and to the extent that the recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on any rights of subrogation under paragraph (b) above, the relevant Obligor will owe the recovering Finance Party a debt which is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged.

(d)

If:

(i)

a recovering Finance Party must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to an Obligor; and

(ii)

the recovering Finance Party has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery,

each Finance Party, on the request of the Facility Agent, must reimburse the recovering Finance Party all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party, together with interest for the period while it held the redistribution. In this event, the subrogation in paragraph (b) above will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement.

34.3

Exceptions

Notwithstanding any other term of this Clause, a recovering Finance Party need not pay a redistribution to the extent that:

(a)	it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the relevant Obligor in the amount of the redistribution; or

(b)	it would be sharing with another Finance Party any amount which the recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of legal or arbitration proceedings, where:

(i)

the recovering Finance Party notified the Facility Agent of those proceedings; and

(ii)

the other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those proceedings but did not do so or did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving notice of them.

35.

SEVERABILITY

If a term of a Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any jurisdiction, that will not affect:

(a)	the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other term of the Finance Documents; or

(b)	the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other term of the Finance Documents.

36.

COUNTERPARTS

Each Finance Document may be executed in any number of counterparts. This has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document.

37.

INDEMNITIES AND REIMBURSEMENT

All indemnities and reimbursement obligations (and any other payment obligations of any Obligor) in each Finance Document are continuing and survive termination of the Finance Document, repayment of the Loans and cancellation or expiry of the Commitments.
