19.8   Waiver of defences
 
    The obligations of the Chargor under this Debenture and the Collateral Rights will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would

  19.8.1   any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Loan Party or other person;
 
  19.8.2   the release of any Loan Party or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;

    The Chargor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from the Chargor under this Debenture. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of this Debenture to the contrary.
 
19.10   Deferral of Rights
 
    Until such time as the Secured Liabilities have been discharged in full, the Chargor will not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under this Debenture:
  19.10.1   to be indemnified by any Loan Party;
 
  19.10.2   to claim any contribution from any guarantor of any Loan Party’s obligations under this Debenture; and/or

- 26 -


 

      of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, this Debenture by any Secured Party.
20.   RELEASE OF LIEN
 
20.1   Redemption of Lien
 
    The security constituted by this Debenture shall be released, reassigned and cancelled:
  20.1.1   by the Collateral Agent (acting on the instructions of the Applicable Representative) at the request and cost of the Chargor, upon the Secured Liabilities being irrevocably paid or discharged in full and none of the Secured Parties being under any further actual or contingent obligation to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to the Chargor or any other person under any of the Loan Documents; or
 
  20.1.2   in accordance with, and to the extent required by, the Intercreditor Arrangements (to the extent it is possible to give effect to such arrangements under Hong Kong law).
20.2   Permitted Disposals
 
    If the Chargor disposes of any Charged Property and that disposal is permitted by the Principal Finance Documents, such Charged Property shall, unless an Enforcement Event has occurred and is continuing, be automatically released, reassigned, re transferred and cancelled from the security constituted by this Debenture with effect from the day of such disposal and the Collateral Agent (at the expense and cost of the Chargor) shall do all such acts which are reasonably requested by the Chargor in order to release, re-assign, re-transfer and cancel the relevant Charged Property from the security constituted by this Debenture. Any or all of the Charged Property shall also be released, re-assigned, re-transferred and cancelled in accordance with and to the extent permitted by the Intercreditor Arrangements.
 
20.3   Avoidance of Payments
 
    If the Collateral Agent considers (on the reasonable instructions of the Applicable Representative) that any amount paid or credited to any Secured Party is capable of being avoided or reduced by virtue of any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws the liability of the Chargor under this Debenture and the security constituted by this Debenture shall continue and such amount shall not be considered to have been irrevocably paid.
 
21.   SUBSEQUENT AND PRIOR LIEN
 
21.1   Subsequent Lien
 
    If the Collateral Agent (acting in its capacity as security trustee or otherwise) or any of the other Secured Parties at any time receives or is deemed to have received notice of any subsequent Lien affecting all or any part of the Charged Property or any assignment or transfer of the Charged Property which in either case is prohibited by the terms of this Debenture or the Principal Finance Documents, all payments thereafter by or on behalf of the Chargor to the Collateral Agent (whether in its

- 27 -


 

    capacity as security trustee or otherwise) or any of the other Secured Parties shall be treated as having been credited to a new account of the Chargor and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Liabilities as at the time when the Collateral Agent received such notice.
 
21.2   Prior Lien
 
    In the event of any action, proceeding or step being taken to exercise any powers or remedies conferred by any prior ranking Lien or upon the exercise by the Collateral Agent or any Receiver or any Delegate of any power of sale under this Debenture the Collateral Agent may redeem that prior Lien or procure the transfer of it to itself. The Collateral Agent may settle and agree the accounts of the prior Lien and any accounts so settled and agreed will be conclusive and binding on the Chargor. All principal monies, interest, costs, charges and expenses of and incidental to any redemption or transfer will be paid by the Chargor to the Collateral Agent on demand.
 
22.   ASSIGNMENT
 
    The Collateral Agent may assign and transfer all or any of its rights and obligations under this Debenture to facilitate the performance of its role as Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents in accordance with the Intercreditor Arrangements. Subject to Section 9.16 of the Credit Agreement and the terms of the Principal Finance Documents, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to disclose such information concerning the Chargor and this Debenture as the Collateral Agent considers appropriate to any actual or proposed direct or indirect successor or to any person to whom information may be required to be disclosed by any applicable law.
 
23.   INDEMNITY
 
    To the extent set out in Section 4.11 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and in the Additional Collateral Agent’s Fee Letter, the Chargor shall, notwithstanding any release or discharge of all or any part of the security, indemnify the Collateral Agent, its agents, attorneys, any Delegate and any Receiver against any action, proceeding, claims, losses, liabilities, expenses, demands, taxes, and costs which it may sustain as a consequence of any breach by the Chargor of the provisions of this Debenture, the exercise or purported exercise of any of the rights and powers conferred on them by this Debenture or otherwise relating to the Charged Property.
 
24.   PAYMENTS FREE OF DEDUCTION
 
    Section 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement applies to this Debenture, save that, for the purposes of this Debenture only, the references in Section 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement to “a Loan Party”, “that Loan Party” and “each Loan Party” shall be replaced with “the Chargor”. The exceptions to, and exclusions from, Section 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement contained in the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Schedule 10.03 of the Credit Agreement) apply to the incorporation of Section 2.20 (Taxes) of the Credit Agreement in this Debenture.

- 28 -


 

25.   CURRENCY INDEMNITY
 
25.1   The Secured Liabilities shall be paid in the currency in which it is denominated at the relevant time, unless the Loan Documents provide otherwise.
 
25.2   If any Secured Liabilities is received from the Chargor in a currency (“first currency”) other than the currency (“second currency”) in which it is payable (whether as a result of obtaining or enforcing an order or judgment, the dissolution of any person or otherwise), the amount received shall only satisfy the Chargor’s obligation to pay its Secured Liabilities to the extent of the amount in the second currency which the relevant Secured Party is able, in accordance with its usual practice, to purchase with the amount received in the first currency on the date of that receipt (or, if it is not possible to make that purchase on that date, on the first date upon which it is possible to do so).
 
25.3   Subject to Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement, the Additional Collateral Agent’s Fee Letter and the terms of the Principal Finance Documents, the Chargor indemnifies each Secured Party against:
  25.3.1   any loss sustained by it as a result of the amount purchased by it in the second currency pursuant to Clause 25.2 above being less than the amount due; and
 
  25.3.2   all costs and expenses properly incurred by it in purchasing the second currency,
    in respect of any Secured Liabilities received from the Chargor.
 
25.4   The Chargor shall pay to the relevant Secured Party, promptly upon demand, in the currency stipulated, all amounts payable pursuant to such indemnity.
 
26.   DISCRETION AND DELEGATION
 
26.1   Discretion
 
    Any liberty or power which may be exercised or any determination which may be made under this Debenture by the Collateral Agent or any Receiver may, subject to the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Arrangements and to any requirement of reasonableness required under this Debenture, be exercised or made in its absolute and unfettered discretion without any obligation to give reasons.
 
26.2   Delegation
 
    Subject to Section 4.05 of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent permitted by Hong Kong law), each of the Collateral Agent and any Receiver shall have full power to delegate (either generally or specifically) the powers, authorities and discretions conferred on it by this Debenture (including the power of attorney) on such terms and conditions as it shall see fit which delegation shall not preclude either the subsequent exercise, any subsequent delegation or any revocation of such power, authority or discretion by the Collateral Agent or the Receiver itself.
 
26.3   For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that the Collateral Agent is permitted to act on the instructions of the Applicable Representative in accordance with Clause

- 29 -


 

    2.02(a)(i) of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement. It is further acknowledged that the Collateral Agent may assume that any and all instructions received by it from the Applicable Representative under this Debenture are reasonable, and that any question as to the reasonableness or otherwise of such instructions shall be determined as between the Applicable Representative and the Chargor.
 
27.   PERPETUITY PERIOD
 
    The perpetuity period under the rule against perpetuities, if applicable to this Debenture, shall be the period of eighty years from the date of this Debenture.
 
28.   NOTICES
 
    All notices and other communications provided under this Debenture shall be served in accordance with the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.
 
29.   GOVERNING LAW
 
    This Debenture and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by Hong Kong law.
 
30.   JURISDICTION
 
30.1   Hong Kong Courts
 
    The courts of Hong Kong have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute (a “Dispute”) arising out of, or connected with this Debenture (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Debenture or the consequences of its nullity) or any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this Debenture.
 
30.2   Convenient Forum
 
    The parties agree that the courts of Hong Kong are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes between them and, accordingly, that they will not argue to the contrary.
 
30.3   Exclusive Jurisdiction
 
    This Clause 30 (Jurisdiction) is for the benefit of the Collateral Agent only. As a result and notwithstanding Clause 30.1 (Hong Kong Courts), it does not prevent the Collateral Agent from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law the Collateral Agent may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.
 
31.   COUNTERPARTS
 
    This Debenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of this Debenture.
