All such purchases, sales and over-allotments shall be made in accordance with applicable law for the account of the Managers pro rata to their respective Commitments; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, each Manager shall be responsible for managing its individual long or short position (the “Individual Position”) and may cover any short position, sell any long position and/or engage in hedging activity in respect of its Individual Position (collectively, the “Stabilising Activities”). “Purchase Percentage” means the principal amount of Securities subscribed for by a Manager as a ratio of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities.

If, however, they are unable to maintain such listing, having used such endeavours, or if the maintenance of such listing is unduly onerous, the Issuer will instead use reasonable endeavours as soon as reasonably practicable to obtain and thereafter to maintain a listing for the Bonds on such other stock exchange, as is commonly used for the quotation or listing of debt securities, prior to the Closing Date as it may (with the approval of the Managers) decide or, failing such decision, as the Managers may reasonably determine and after the Closing Date in accordance with the terms of the Trust Deed.
