31.1Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination shall be referred upon the application of either Party to, and finally settled by, arbitration in accordance with the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”) Rules (the “Rules”), which Rules are deemed incorporated into this Clause 31.1.  The number of arbitrators shall be three (3), one of whom shall be nominated by the claimant(s), one by the respondent(s) and the third of whom, who shall act as chairman, shall be nominated by the two party-nominated arbitrators, provided that if the third arbitrator has not been nominated within twenty (20) Business Days of the nomination of the second party-nominated arbitrator, such third arbitrator shall be nominated

41

by the LCIA Court.  The seat and place of the arbitration shall be London, England and the language of arbitration shall be English.  Sections 45 and 69 of the Arbitration Act 1996 shall not apply.

31.2The arbitrators shall have the power to grant any legal or equitable remedy or relief available under law, including injunctive relief (whether interim and/or final) and specific performance and any measures ordered by the arbitrators may be specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.  Each Party retains the right to seek interim or provisional measures, including injunctive relief and including pre-arbitral attachments or injunctions, from any court of competent jurisdiction and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 31.2 is not intended to limit the powers of the court exercisable in support of arbitration proceedings pursuant to s.44 of the Arbitration Act 1996.

31.3In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, all claims between any of the Parties or the parties to any Transaction Document which Transaction Document contains an arbitration clause substantially in the form of Clause 31.1 which claims arise out of or in connection with this Agreement or such other Transaction Document may be brought in a single arbitration.  Upon the request of any party to an arbitration proceeding commenced pursuant to Clause 31.1 (the “Arbitration”), the Arbitration shall be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding relating to one or more Transaction Documents, if either:

(a)all parties concerned agree; or

(b)the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time determines that:

(i)there are issues of fact or law common to the proceedings so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings; and

(ii)no party would be unduly prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise.

31.4Where the parties in the two proceedings are identical, the ruling of the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time shall prevail and such tribunal shall serve as the arbitral tribunal for the consolidated arbitration.

31.5Where the parties in the two proceedings are not identical, and subject always to provisos (a) and (b) of Clause 31.3, the ruling of the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time shall prevail, but, unless otherwise elected by the new parties not included in the arbitration before the arbitral tribunal first constituted, a new arbitral tribunal for any consolidated arbitration shall be constituted in accordance with the provisions of Clause 31.1.  Where a new tribunal is so constituted, for the avoidance of doubt, any rulings, directions or orders made by the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time, with the exception of outstanding orders for costs, will be of no effect.

31.6The Parties also expressly agree that any party to any Transaction Document may, at the request of a Party and with the consent of the party to be joined and the arbitral tribunal, be joined as a party to any arbitral proceedings commenced under this Agreement.

31.7The courts of England shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction over any action brought to enforce this Agreement to arbitrate, including but not limited to the jurisdiction to grant injunctive or other relief in respect of proceedings commenced in breach of the agreement to arbitrate, and each of the Parties submits to such jurisdiction for such purpose.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be prevented by this Clause 31.7 from defending itself against or challenging any proceedings brought against it in the courts of any jurisdiction in breach of Clause 31.1.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 31.7

42

shall limit the right of a Party to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to enforcement of any award.

This Agreement has been entered into by the Parties on the date first above written.

(ii)for the duration of the Excluded Liability Action, provide the Subscriber and its Agents with such information and documentation relating to the Excluded Liability Action as they may reasonably require;

(d)the Company shall have the right to participate in the defence and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the Subscriber or any relevant member of the Subscriber’s Group, it being understood that the Subscriber, or any relevant member of the Subscriber’s Group, shall control such defence; and

(e)if a competent court or other tribunal considering such Excluded Liability Action issues a judgment or award against the Company or the relevant member of the Company’s Group and such judgment or award enters into force, the Subscriber shall (save to the extent the Subscriber has already paid the amount of such judgment or award to the Company under any Indemnity) discharge such judgment or award on behalf of the Company within the period specified therein.  The Subscriber shall be entitled to appeal from or otherwise challenge any such court judgment or award by using all means available to the Subscriber in accordance with applicable law.  If the Subscriber or other member of the Subscriber’s Group agrees to any settlement of any Excluded Liability Action, the Subscriber shall discharge the amount of any liability under such settlement in full.

73

8.5Subject to paragraph 8.6, in the case of a Third Party Action that, if successful, would represent any liability other than solely an Excluded Liability (“Other Third Party Action”), and on the basis that the Subscriber shall indemnify the Company and each relevant member of the Company’s Group from and against all Losses suffered or incurred by it in the performance of this paragraph 8.5, the Company shall, and shall procure that each relevant member of the Company’s Group shall:

(a)make no admission of liability or settle or compromise the Other Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Subscriber (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(b)employ a professional adviser acceptable to the Subscriber (acting reasonably) in relation to the conduct of such Other Third Party Action;

(c)in a timely manner inform the Subscriber of each material development in the conduct of the Other Third Party Action; and

(d)take such reasonable action as the Subscriber may (by notice given in a timely manner) reasonably require in order to avoid, defend, dispute, mitigate, appeal, settle or compromise the Other Third Party Action.

8.6The Company shall have no obligation under paragraph 8.5 if, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, the performance of such obligation would require the Company or another member of the Company’s Group to do or omit to do any act or thing which act or omission that would be or is likely to be materially adversely prejudicial to the business of NewCo or to the business of the Company’s Group taken as a whole.

8.7In the event that the Company breaches any of its obligations under this paragraph 8 in respect of any Third Party Action, the Subscriber shall not be liable for any Losses in respect of such Third Party Action to the extent (but only to the extent) such Losses are greater than they would otherwise be by reason of such breach, and the Company shall have no other liability in respect of such breach.

9.Recovery from insurers and other persons

9.1From and after Completion, where the Company is at any time entitled to recover from any insurer under any insurance policy any sum in respect of a matter giving rise to a Warranty Claim, the Company shall use reasonable endeavours to claim under such insurance policy, provided always that the Company shall not be required by this paragraph 9.1 to bring any proceedings against the relevant insurer.

9.2If at any time the Company recovers from another person an amount which is referable to the matter giving rise to a Warranty Claim, the Company shall promptly notify the Subscriber and:

(a)if the Company has already received an amount in satisfaction of such Warranty Claim and the amount received in respect of such Warranty Claim is more than the Sum Recovered (as defined in paragraph 9.3, below), the Company shall immediately pay to the Subscriber the Sum Recovered;

(b)if the Company has already received an amount in satisfaction of such Warranty Claim and the amount received in respect of the Warranty Claim is less than or equal to the Sum Recovered, the Company shall immediately pay to the Subscriber an amount equal to the amount paid by the Subscriber in respect of such Warranty Claim; and

74

(c)if the Company has not already received an amount in satisfaction of such Warranty Claim, the amount of the Warranty Claim for which the Subscriber would have been liable shall be reduced by and to the extent of the Sum Recovered.

9.3For the purposes of paragraph 9.2, “Sum Recovered” means an amount equal to the total of the amount recovered from the other person less all costs incurred by any member of the Company’s Group in recovering the amount from the person and any Tax applicable to such amount.

2.1Guarantee and Indemnity

(a)The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each of the Beneficiaries due and punctual payment and discharge by the Subscriber of the

101

Guaranteed Obligations, such that the Guarantor undertakes to each of the Beneficiaries that, whenever the Subscriber does not pay any amount of any Guaranteed Obligation owed to a Beneficiary, the Guarantor shall pay that amount to such Beneficiary as if he were the principal obligor.

(b)The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to each of the Beneficiaries that, if the Agreement is or becomes (in whole or in part) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal for any reason (whether or not known to the Guarantor) (including by reason of any Subscriber Insolvency Event), the Guarantor will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify each Beneficiary immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Subscriber not paying any amount that would be due from the Subscriber as a Guaranteed Obligation but for the Agreement being so void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal, on the date when it is or would have been due.  The Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 2.1(b) in respect of any obligation of the Subscriber shall not exceed such amount as would (but for the Agreement being void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal in the relevant respect) be the liability of the Subscriber in respect of such obligation.

(c)Any references in this Deed to a “guarantee” or a “Guarantor” and any provisions of this Deed relating to a guarantee but not to a primary obligation shall be ignored for the purpose of interpreting the nature of the Guarantor’s obligations under Clause 2.1(b).

(d)A Beneficiary shall not make any claim under this Deed in respect of an Indemnity Claim unless:

(i)either:

(A)the Subscriber shall not have paid the amount of such Indemnity Claim to such Beneficiary in full within 30 (thirty) days from the date on which such Indemnity Claim is due for payment under the Agreement (for which purpose it shall be assumed that the full amount of such Indemnity Claim is validly claimed); or

(B)a Subscriber Insolvency Event shall have occurred or the Agreement is or shall have become (in whole or in any relevant respect) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal; and

(ii)either:

(A)KR 1875 shall not have paid the amount of such Indemnity Claim to such Beneficiary in full as at the expiry of 30 (thirty) days following the later of: (X) such Beneficiary having given KR 1875 a written demand therefor under the KR 1875 Suretyship; and (Y) (where Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(d)(i)(A) applies only) the expiry of the thirty-day period referred to in Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(d)(i)(A); or

(B)a KR 1875 Insolvency Event shall have occurred, the KR 1875 Suretyship shall have expired or terminated or the KR 1875 Suretyship is or shall have become (in whole or in any relevant respect) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal.

(e)A Beneficiary shall not make any claim under this Deed in respect of a Warranty Claim unless:

(i)either:

102

(A)the liability of the Subscriber in respect of such Warranty Claim shall have been determined by an arbitral award given pursuant to clause 31 of the Agreement or agreed in writing by the Company and the Subscriber, and the Subscriber shall not have paid the amount of such liability to such Beneficiary in full on the due date for payment thereof, determined as provided in clause 27 of the Agreement; or

(B)a Subscriber Insolvency Event shall have occurred, it shall have been determined by a final arbitral award given pursuant to clause 31 of the Agreement that the Agreement is or has become (in whole or in any relevant respect) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal and/or the Subscriber shall have raised any defence or objection to any actual or proposed arbitral proceedings pursuant to clause 31 of the Agreement on the basis that such clause is (in whole or in part) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal; and

(ii)either:

(A)KR 1875 shall not have paid the amount of the liability of the Subscriber in respect of such Warranty Claim (as determined by the relevant arbitral award or agreement) (where Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(A) applies) or the amount of such Warranty Claim (where Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(B) applies) in full to such Beneficiary as at the expiry of 30 (thirty) days following the later of: (X) such Beneficiary having given KR 1875 a written demand therefor under the KR 1875 Suretyship (supported, where Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(A) applies, by a certified copy of the arbitral award rendered against the Subscriber or the relevant agreement between the Company and the Subscriber); and (Y) (where Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(A) applies only) the due date for payment referred to in Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(A); or

(B)a KR 1875 Insolvency Event shall have occurred, the KR 1875 Suretyship shall have expired or terminated or the KR 1875 Suretyship is or shall have become (in whole or in any relevant respect) void, unenforceable, invalid or illegal.

(f)Where, in respect of any Warranty Claim, Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1(e)(i)(A) applies, any claim against the Guarantor in respect of such Warranty Claim shall be supported by a certified copy of the arbitral award rendered against the Subscriber or the relevant agreement.  For the purposes of this Clause Schedule 1Part 32.1, the Guarantor agrees that:

(i)any final arbitral award rendered against the Subscriber in the arbitral proceedings with respect to a Warranty Claim pursuant to clause 31 of the Agreement; or

(ii)any agreement in writing entered into between the Subscriber and the Company in respect of the Subscriber’s liability for any Warranty Claim,

shall be binding on the Guarantor as to the Subscriber’s liability in respect of such Warranty Claim.

103

2.2Maximum Liability

The maximum aggregate liability of the Guarantor to any and all of the Beneficiaries under this Deed in respect of any and all claims made by such Beneficiaries against the Guarantor under this Deed (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under Clause 2.1(b)) shall not in any circumstances exceed [**] Dollars (USD [**]).

3.Continuing Security

(a)any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, the Subscriber or KR 1875;

(b)the release of the Subscriber or KR 1875 under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of the Subscriber or KR 1875;

(c)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 Subscriber or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

(d)any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of the Subscriber or KR 1875;

(e)any amendment, novation, supplement, extension (whether of maturity or otherwise) or restatement (in each case, however fundamental and of whatsoever nature) or replacement of the Agreement or the KR 1875 Suretyship;

(f)any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under the Agreement, guarantee or any other agreement, guarantee or security; or

3.4Immediate Recourse

104

3.5Deferral of Guarantor’s Rights

Until all amounts due and payable by the Subscriber under the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full, unless the Company otherwise directs, the Guarantor will not exercise any rights (the Guarantor’s “rights of recourse”) which the Guarantor may have by reason of performance by him of his obligations under this Deed or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Deed or otherwise:

14.Governing Law and Arbitration

14.1Governing Law

This Deed, including the arbitration agreement set out in Clause 14.2, and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Deed, is governed by and shall be construed in accordance with English law.

14.2Arbitration

(a)Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Deed, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination shall be referred upon the application of either Party to, and finally settled by, arbitration in accordance with the London Court of International Arbitration (“LCIA”) Rules (the “Rules”), which Rules are deemed incorporated into this Clause 14.2.  The number of arbitrators shall be three (3), one of whom shall be nominated by the claimant(s), one by the respondent(s) and the third of whom, who shall act as chairman, shall be nominated by the two party-nominated arbitrators, provided that if the third arbitrator has not been nominated within twenty (20) Business Days of the nomination of the second party-nominated arbitrator, such third arbitrator shall be nominated by the LCIA Court.  The seat and place of the arbitration shall be London, England and the language of arbitration shall be English.  Sections 45 and 69 of the Arbitration Act 1996 shall not apply.

(b)The arbitrators shall have the power to grant any legal or equitable remedy or relief available under law, including injunctive relief (whether interim and/or final) and specific performance and any measures ordered by the arbitrators may be specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction.  Each Party retains the right to seek interim or provisional measures, including injunctive relief and including pre-arbitral attachments or injunctions, from any court of competent jurisdiction and any such request shall not be deemed incompatible with the agreement to arbitrate or a waiver of the right to arbitrate.  For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 14.2(b) is not intended to limit the powers of the court exercisable in support of arbitration proceedings pursuant to s.44 of the Arbitration Act 1996.

(c)In order to facilitate the comprehensive resolution of related disputes, all claims between any of the Parties or the parties to any Transaction Document which Transaction Document contains an arbitration clause substantially in the form of Clause 14.2(a) which claims arise out of or in connection with this Deed or such other Transaction Document may be brought in a single arbitration.  Upon the request of any party to an arbitration proceeding commenced pursuant to Clause 14.2(a) (the “Arbitration”), the Arbitration shall be consolidated with any other arbitration proceeding relating to one or more Transaction Documents, if either:

(i)all parties concerned agree; or

(ii)the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time determines that:

(A)there are issues of fact or law common to the proceedings so that a consolidated proceeding would be more efficient than separate proceedings; and

109

(B)no party would be unduly prejudiced as a result of such consolidation through undue delay or otherwise.

(d)Where the parties in the two proceedings are identical, the ruling of the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time shall prevail and such tribunal shall serve as the arbitral tribunal for the consolidated arbitration.

(e)Where the parties in the two proceedings are not identical, and subject always to provisos (i) and (ii) of Clause 14.2(c), the ruling of the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time shall prevail, but, unless otherwise elected by the new parties not included in the arbitration before the arbitral tribunal first constituted, a new arbitral tribunal for any consolidated arbitration shall be constituted in accordance with the provisions of Clause 14.2(a).  Where a new tribunal is so constituted, for the avoidance of doubt, any rulings, directions or orders made by the arbitral tribunal constituted first in time, with the exception of outstanding orders for costs, will be of no effect.

(f)The Parties also expressly agree that any party to any Transaction Document may, at the request of a Party and with the consent of the party to be joined and the arbitral tribunal, be joined as a party to any arbitral proceedings commenced under this Deed.

(g)Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Party shall be prevented by this Clause 14.2(g) from defending itself against or challenging any proceedings brought against such Party in the courts of any jurisdiction in breach of Clause 14.2(a).  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 14.2(g) shall limit the right of a Party to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction with respect to enforcement of any award.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF this Deed has been duly executed and delivered as a deed by the parties hereto on the date stated at the beginning of this Deed.
