If this Agreement is translated into any language other than English, the English language version shall prevail (except in respect of words and phrases which have been specifically translated in this Agreement by inclusion of the translated words in brackets after the English word or phrase).

43     Inadequacy of damages

Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that a party may have, each party acknowledges and agrees that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of the terms of this Agreement by that party. Accordingly, the other parties shall be entitled to seek the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of the terms of this Agreement.

44     Governing law

English law governs this Agreement (excluding the arbitration agreement contained in Clause 45), its interpretation and any non-contractual obligations arising from or connected with it.

45     Arbitration

 

45.1

The Parties agree that any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question regarding its existence, validity or termination (each, a “Dispute”), shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (“SIAC Court”) in accordance with the Arbitration Rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (the “Rules”) for the time being in force, which rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Clause 45.

 

45.2

Where there are no more than two parties to the arbitration, each party shall nominate one arbitrator and the two party-nominated arbitrators shall (in each case, in consultation with the relevant nominating party) nominate the third, presiding arbitrator. If the presiding arbitrator has not been nominated by the two party-nominated arbitrators within 21 calendar days of the date of the appointment of the second party-nominated arbitrator, the presiding arbitrator shall be appointed by the SIAC Court.

 

45.3

Where there are three or more parties to the arbitration, and all parties to the arbitration agree in writing that the disputant parties represent collectively two separate “sides” for the formation of the tribunal, each side shall nominate one arbitrator and the two side-nominated arbitrators (in each case, in consultation with the relevant nominating side) shall nominate the third, presiding arbitrator. If the presiding arbitrator has not been nominated by the two side-nominated arbitrators within 21 calendar days of the date of the appointment of the second side-appointed arbitrator, the presiding arbitrator shall be appointed by the SIAC Court.

 

45.4

Where there are three or more parties to the arbitration and either:

 

  (a)

the parties cannot agree in writing that the disputant parties represent collectively two separate “sides” for the formation of the tribunal; or

 

  (b)

one or both “sides” cannot agree a side-nominated arbitrator;

the SIAC Court shall appoint the arbitral tribunal without regard to any party’s entitlement or nomination.

 

45.5

If this Clause operates to exclude a party’s right to choose its own arbitrator, each party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right to do so. If an appointed arbitrator may not continue to act as an arbitrator of such panel, the party(ies) that appointed such arbitrator shall have the right to appoint a replacement arbitrator in accordance with the provisions of this clause.

 

45.6

The seat of arbitration shall be Singapore. The arbitration proceedings shall be conducted and the award or decision (the Award) of the arbitrators shall be rendered in the English language.

 

45.7

The arbitrators shall have the authority to assess the costs and expenses of the arbitration proceeding (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) against one or more Parties in whatever manner or allocation the arbitrators deem appropriate.

 

45.8

The arbitral tribunal shall have the power to order on a provisional basis any relief which it would have power to grant in a final award.

 

50


45.9

The Award shall be final and binding upon the parties as from the date rendered, and shall be the sole and exclusive remedy between the parties regarding any Disputes presented to the arbitral tribunal. Judgment upon any Award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

 

45.10

The law of the arbitration agreement shall be laws of the Republic of Singapore.

This Agreement has been executed and delivered as a deed on the date shown on the first page.
