this agreement the Executive irrevocably appoints the Company as his

in his name necessary to effect his resignation in accordance with

clause 14.2. If there is any doubt as to whether such a document (or

other thing) has been carried out within the authority conferred by this

clause 14.3, a certificate in writing (signed by any director or the

secretary of the Company) will be sufficient to prove that the act or

thing falls within that authority.

The termination of any directorship or other office held by the

Executive will not terminate the Executive's employment or amount to

a breach of terms of this agreement by the Company.
