9.5    Privileges

At any time while there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default, each Receiver and the Administrative Agent is entitled to all the rights, powers, privileges and immunities conferred by the Act on mortgagees and receivers when such receivers have been duly appointed under the Act, except that Section 20 of the Act does not apply.


10



9.6    Protection of third parties

Save for the Grantor, no person (including a purchaser) dealing with the Administrative Agent or a Receiver or its or his agents will be concerned to enquire:

whether any money remains due under the Credit Agreement; or

(d)
how any money paid to the Administrative Agent or to the Receiver is to be applied.

9.7    Other powers

do all other acts and things which it may reasonably consider desirable or necessary for realising any Security Asset or incidental or conducive to any of the rights, powers or discretions conferred upon it under or by virtue of this Deed;

(b)
exercise in relation to any Security Asset all the powers, authorities and things which it would be capable of exercising if it were the absolute beneficial owner of that Security Asset; and

(c)    use the name of the Grantor for any of the above purposes.

10.1    Appointment of Receiver

At any time after the security constituted by this Deed becomes enforceable, the Administrative Agent may without further notice appoint under seal or in writing under its hand any one or more persons to be a Receiver of all or any part of the Security Assets in like manner in every respect as if the Administrative Agent had become entitled under the Act to exercise the power of sale conferred under the Act.

10.2    Removal

10.5    Limitation of Liability

The Administrative Agent shall not be in any way liable or responsible to the Grantor or any third party for any loss or liability arising from any act, default, omission or misconduct on the part of the Receiver for any reason other than its own bad faith, gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

The Security constituted by this Deed shall be a continuing security and will extend to the ultimate balance of the Secured Obligations regardless of any intermediate payment or satisfaction of the whole or any part of the Secured Obligations (other than a Discharge of the Secured Obligations).

17.2
Reinstatement

(a)
If any discharge (whether in respect of the obligations of any or all of the Loan Parties or any security for those obligations or otherwise) or arrangement is made in whole or in part on the faith of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise without limitation, the liability of the Grantor under this Deed will continue as if the discharge or arrangement had not occurred.

(b)
Each Lender may concede or compromise any claim that any payment, security or other disposition is liable to avoidance or restoration.

17.3    Waiver of defences

Subject to Clause 18 and any act expressly releasing or otherwise exonerating the Grantor from its obligations under this Deed or affecting such obligations, the obligations of the Grantor under this Deed and this security shall not be affected by any act, omission or circumstances which, but for this provision, might operate to release or otherwise exonerate the Grantor from its obligations under this Deed or affect such obligations in whole or in part, including but not limited to (whether or not known to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent):

(a)
any time or waiver granted to, or composition with, any or all of the Loan Parties or other person (other than one granted by the Administrative Agent);

(b)
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, any or all of the Loan Parties or other person or any non‑presentment or non‑observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instruments or any failure to realise the full value of any security;


15



(c)
any incapacity or lack of powers, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of, any or all of the Loan Parties or any other person;

(d)
any amendment, supplement or other modification of the Credit Agreement (other than to the extent expressly contemplated by the terms of any such amendment, supplement or other modification);

(e)
any unenforceability, illegality, frustration or invalidity of any obligation of any person under the Credit Agreement as if there were no unenforceability, illegality or invalidity; and

(f)
any postponement, discharge, reduction, non‑provability or other similar circumstance affecting any obligation of any or all of the Loan Parties resulting from any insolvency, liquidation or dissolution proceedings or from any law, regulation or order so that each such obligation shall for the purposes of the Grantor’s obligations under this Deed be construed as if there were no such circumstance.

17.4    Immediate recourse

Until Discharge of the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent (or any trustee or nominee on its behalf) may:

(a)
refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Administrative Agent (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Grantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(b)
hold in a suspense account any moneys received from the Grantor or on account of the liability of the Grantor under this Deed.

It is understood, for avoidance of doubt, that the Administrative Agent shall not have any of the foregoing rights unless there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default and the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Grantor of the exercise of its rights under Clause 7.

Until a Discharge of the Secured Obligations, the Grantor shall not, during an Event of Default and after a claim has been made or by virtue of any payment or performance by it under this Deed:


16



(a) be subrogated to any rights, security or moneys held, received or receivable by any Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) or be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity in respect of any payment made or moneys received on account of the Grantor’s liability under this Deed;

(b) claim, rank, prove or vote as a creditor of any or all of the Loan Parties in competition with any Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf); or

(c) receive, claim or have the benefit of any payment, distribution or security from or on account of any or all of the Loan Parties, or exercise any right of set-off as against any or all of the Loan Parties.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantor shall hold in trust for and forthwith pay or transfer to the Administrative Agent any payment or distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Deed.

17.7    Additional security

The security granted by this Deed is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other security now or subsequently held by the Administrative Agent for any of the Secured Obligations; provided that in no event shall more than 65% of the Equity Interests of the Company be subject to a Security Interest.

18.    RELEASE

(a)
This Deed shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Grantor and the successors and assigns thereof and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors, endorsees, transferees and assigns until the Discharge of the Secured Obligations.

(b)
If any of the Shares shall be Disposed of by the Grantor in a transaction expressly permitted by the Credit Agreement, then, the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of the Grantor shall execute and deliver to the Grantor all releases or other documents reasonably necessary or desirable for the release of the Liens created hereby on such Shares provided that the Grantor shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the Grantor and Shares to be released, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such Disposition will be applied in accordance therewith.
