EFFECTIVENESS OF SECURITY 19.1 Continuing Security The Security created by or pursuant to this Debenture shall remain in full force and effect as a continuing security for the Secured Obligations unless and until discharged by the Chargees. No part of the Security from time to time intended to be constituted by this Debenture will be considered satisfied or discharged by any intermediate payment, discharge or satisfaction of the whole or any part of the Secured Obligations. 19.2 Cumulative Rights The Security created by this Debenture and the Collateral Rights shall be cumulative, in addition to and independent of every other Security which the Chargees may at any time hold for any or all of the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law. No prior security held by the Chargees over the whole or any part of the Charged Property shall merge into the Security constituted by this Debenture. 19.3 Company's Obligations None of the obligations of the Company under this Debenture or the Collateral Rights shall be affected by an act, omission, matter, thing or event which, but for this Clause 19.3, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Debenture including (without limitation and whether or not known to it or to any Chargee): 19.3.1 the winding-up, dissolution, administration, reorganisation, death, insolvency, incapacity or bankruptcy of the Company or any other person or any change in its status, function, control or ownership; 19.3.2 any of the obligations of the Company or any other person under any Secured Document, or under any other security relating to any Secured Document being or becoming illegal, invalid, unenforceable or ineffective in any respect; 19.3.3 any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, the Company or other person; 19.3.4 the release of the Company or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor; 19.3.5 the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, the Company or other person or any non-presentation or non-

No election by any Chargee to affirm this Debenture shall be effective unless it is in writing. No single or partial exercise of any Collateral Right shall preclude any further or other exercise of that or any other Collateral Right. 19.5 No Liability None of any Chargee, its nominee(s) or any Receiver shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Debenture or (b) any neglect or default in connection with all or any part of the Charged Property or (c) taking possession of or realising all or any part of the Charged Property, except in the case of gross negligence or wilful default upon its part (as finally judicially determined). 19.6 Partial Invalidity If, at any time, any provision of this Debenture is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Debenture under such laws nor of such provision under the laws of any other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby and, if any part of the security intended to be created by or pursuant to this Debenture is invalid, unenforceable or ineffective for any reason, that shall not affect or impair any other part of that security.
