7.Market Disruption and Alternative Interest Rates

 

if we are unable to determine the applicable interest rate for any interest period or we determine that the interest rate is not available or zero or negative, then, the rate of interest shall be the sum of (i) the margin specified in the facility letter; and (ii) our Cost of Funds. We shall notify you of such substitute rate of interest as soon as possible. We shall not be required to reveal how our Cost of Funds is determined.

 

8.Prepayment and Cancellation

 

(a)Any notice of prepayment or cancellation given by you shall be effective only upon actual receipt by us, be irrevocable and shall specify the date upon which such prepayment or cancellation is to be made and the amount of such prepayment or cancellation and, in the case of a notice of prepayment, shall oblige you to make such prepayment on such date.

Unless otherwise stated, interest on such overdue amounts shall be due and payable immediately on demand by us but if not previously demanded, shall be paid at the end of each month or period determined by us. We also reserve the right to charge any excess overdraft utilisation at a rate to be determined by us.

 

10.Authority to Debit and Set-off Accounts

 

(a)You irrevocably authorise us to debit your accounts with us (whether in Singapore or elsewhere and whether alone or jointly or jointly with any other person) at any time and without any notice to you for the Total Indebtedness and the Termination Amount due and payable by you to us and all other moneys and liabilities owing by you to us under the Documents provided always that any such debiting shall not be deemed to be a payment of any moneys to which it relates except to the extent of any amount in credit in that account.

 

(b)Notwithstanding any provision herein, we shall be entitled at any time, without notice to you, to combine all or any of your liabilities to or accounts with us (whether alone or jointly or jointly with any other person) and set-off, transfer or apply any of our obligations to you in or towards satisfaction of any of your obligations to us, regardless of whether your obligations to us are actual or contingent, primary or collateral, several or joint, booked or payable at different branches (including branches outside Singapore), in different currencies and notwithstanding that your accounts in question may constitute deposits in respect of which notice of termination has been given.

 

(c)For the purposes of this Paragraph, we are authorised to effect any necessary currency conversions at our own rate of exchange then prevailing. If the amount of an obligation is unascertained, we may estimate that amount and set-off or debit in respect of the estimate, subject to a final settlement being made between you and us when the amount of the obligation is ascertained. Our rights under this Paragraph shall be without prejudice and in addition to any rights of set-off, combination of accounts, lien, security or other right to which we are at any time otherwise entitled (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise).

11.Rights Cumulative and No Waivers

 

Our rights under the Documents are cumulative and are in addition to our rights under general law. No failure or delay by us in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver hereof nor shall any defective or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any other or further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. No course of conduct or negotiation on our part shall preclude us from exercising any such right or constitute a waiver of any such right. Any waiver of our rights must be in writing.

 

12.Rights Binding on you

 

The rights given to us in the Documents shall be binding on you and each Entity who is a party thereto and shall not be determined or in any way prejudiced or affected by (i) any liquidation (whether compulsory or voluntary) affecting you or that Entity or any change in your or that Entity’s constitution whether by way of amalgamation, consolidation, reconstruction or otherwise, or (ii) any change in our constitution whether by way of amalgamation, consolidation, reconstruction or otherwise, or (iii) any death, bankruptcy, insanity or other disability or cessation or termination affecting you or that Entity.

We may at any time without the consent of and without notice to you or any other person assign or transfer all or any part of our benefits, rights and/or obligations under any Document to any person as we deem fit. Any such assignee or transferee shall be entitled to the full benefit of such rights and/or obligations as if it were us in respect of the rights or obligations assigned or transferred to it. If we assign or transfer all or any part of our rights and/or obligations, all references in the Documents to us shall thereafter be construed as a reference to us and/or our assignees and/or transferees to the extent of our/their respective interests.

 

14.Additional Security to Guarantee

15.Security Margin

 

If the market value of any assets over which security has been created pursuant to any Security Document falls below what we, in our sole opinion, consider to be an adequate security margin, we may, without prejudice to any other right that we may have, reduce the Facilities, withhold activation or disbursement of the Facilities or any part thereof, require payment of such amount of the Facilities as we may specify and/or require such additional security acceptable to us to be furnished.

If (in our opinion) the result of any change in, or in the interpretation, application or administration of, or introduction of, any law or regulation (including, without limitation, those relating to Taxation, capital adequacy, liquidity, prudential limits, reserve assets and special deposits) is to:-

(i)we shall notify you in writing of such event promptly upon our becoming aware of the same;

For the purposes of this Paragraph, we may allocate or spread costs and/or losses among our assets and liabilities (or any class thereof) on such basis as we consider appropriate.

 

19.Change in circumstances

 

If and whenever, at any time prior to the commencement of an interest period, we shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive), that:-

 

(a)by reason of any national or international, financial, political or economic conditions, currency availability or exchange controls, it is or will be impracticable for any loan, advance or any overdue sum to be drawn down or to remain outstanding in the currency in which it was made;

 

(b)there has been adverse change or any development likely to result in an adverse change in the economic, financial or political conditions, interest rates or currency market in Singapore or any other relevant jurisdiction; or

 

(c)deposits in the relevant currency are not available to us in the Singapore inter-bank market in the ordinary course of business in sufficient amounts to fund any loan, advance or any overdue sum for a particular interest period,

 

we shall forthwith give notice (a “Determination Notice”) thereof to you. After the giving of any Determination Notice the undrawn amount of the affected Facility shall not be borrowed until notice to the contrary is given to you by us. Where a loan is outstanding, during the period of 7 days after any Determination Notice has been given by us, we shall certify an alternative basis (the “Substitute Basis”) for maintaining such loan. The Substitute Basis may (without limitation) include alternative interest periods, alternative currencies or alternative rates of interest but shall include a margin above our Cost of Funds. Each Substitute Basis so certified shall be binding upon you and shall take effect in accordance with its terms from the date specified in the Determination Notice until such time as we determine that the circumstances specified above have ceased to exist whereupon the normal interest rate fixing provisions of the facility letter shall apply. Our determination of the Substitute Basis and our Cost of Funds shall be final and conclusive and we shall not be required to reveal how the Substitute Basis and/or our Cost of Funds were determined.

 

You may forthwith upon you being notified of the Substitute Basis and in any case not later than 7 days after such notification, by giving us not less than 14 days’ notice (such notice to be effective only upon receipt and to be irrevocable), prepay on or before the expiry of such notice period all (but not part only) of the loan in question in accordance with and subject to the provisions of the facility letter.

If, on any Settlement Date, more than one delivery of a particular currency is to be made between you and us under two or more Transactions, we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, notify you either orally or in writing that we will be aggregating the amounts of such currency deliverable by each party so that only the difference between these aggregate amounts shall be delivered by the party owing the larger aggregate amount to the other party and, if the aggregate amount payable by each party is the same, both parties’ obligations to deliver the aggregate amount are discharged on such Settlement Date and no delivery of the currency shall be made by either party.

 

(c)If we, in our sole and absolute discretion, make a payment under a Transaction before you have satisfied your corresponding obligation under such Transaction, you shall hold that payment in trust for us until full satisfaction of your obligation under such Transaction.

 

(d)If for any Transaction, (i) the Amount Purchased by us, or (ii) where you are required to pay any Settlement Amount to us on the Settlement Date, the Settlement Amount, is to be settled from a fixed deposit you place with us (the “Settlement Deposit”) :-

(b)Notwithstanding Paragraph C.7.(a) above, where any Termination Event is governed by a system of law which does not permit termination of a Transaction to take place after the occurrence of such event, then all outstanding Transactions will be terminated immediately upon the occurrence of such Termination Event as of the time immediately preceding the occurrence of such Termination Event (this process to be known as “automatic termination”).

 

(c)Upon the termination of any or all Transactions on a given date pursuant to either Paragraph C.7.(a) or C.7.(b) above (the “Early Termination Date”):

We shall make such determination as of the relevant Early Termination Date, or, if that is not reasonably practicable, as of the earliest date thereafter as is reasonably practicable.

If the Termination Amount is due from us to you, then (subject to any lien or set-off or other similar right of ours), such amount will be paid by us to you within a reasonable time after our determination of such Termination Amount under Paragraphs C.7.(c)(i) and C.7.(c)(ii);

 

(iv)in addition (but without prejudice to) any rights or remedies otherwise available to us in respect of any and all Security Documents, we may immediately exercise any and all rights and remedies in respect of such Security Documents and apply all proceeds thereof toward settlement of the Termination Amount (or part thereof) due and payable by you; and

 

(v)without prior notice to you, we may sell any securities or other property of yours held at that time by us under any Security Documents (whether for safekeeping, custody, pledge, transmission, collection or otherwise) as we may deem appropriate and apply all proceeds thereof toward settlement of the Termination Amount (or part thereof) due and payable by you.
