Default interest shall automatically accrue on all payable and unpaid principal amounts, as from the date on which they became payable to the date on which they are paid (both included), at the interest rate described in Clause 5 (Interest) increased by 15% per annum, which means 21% per annum.

15.

INDEMNITIES AND SET-OFF

15.1

General Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including loss of profits) which the Lender may incur as a consequence of the information produced or approved by the Borrower being or being alleged to be misleading or deceptive in any respect or any Event of Default or any other breach by the Borrower of any of its obligations under any Finance Document to which it is a party or any failure to borrow in accordance with the Notice of Drawing or any prepayment under this Agreement (except under Clause 6.2) or otherwise in connection with the Finance Documents (including any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or redeploying funds acquired or arranged for the purposes of a proposed Advance or to maintain the Loan or any unpaid sum or in terminating any such arrangement or any hedging arrangement in respect of this Agreement and any interest or fees incurred in funding any unpaid sum, but taking into account any interest paid by the Borrower in respect of such unpaid sum under Clause 14).

15.2

Currency Indemnity. US Dollars shall be the currency of account and of payment in respect of sums payable under the Finance Documents. If an amount is received in another currency, pursuant to a judgment or order or in the liquidation of the Borrower or otherwise, the Borrower’s obligations under the Finance Documents to which it is a party shall be discharged only to the extent that the Lender may purchase US Dollars with such other currency in accordance with normal banking procedures upon receipt of such amount. If the amount in US Dollars which may be so purchased, after deducting any costs of exchange and any other related costs, is less than the relevant sum payable under the relevant Finance Document, the Borrower shall indemnify the Lender against the shortfall. This indemnity shall be an obligation of the Borrower independent of and in addition to his other obligations under the Finance Documents and shall take effect notwithstanding any time or other concession granted to the Borrower or any judgment or order being obtained or the filing of any claim in the liquidation, dissolution or bankruptcy (or analogous process) of the Borrower.

15.3

Set-Off. If an Event of Default has occurred the Lender shall have the right, without notice to the Borrower or any other person, to set off and apply any credit balance on any account (whether subject to notice or not and whether matured or not and in whatever currency) of the Borrower with the Lender and any other indebtedness owing by the Lender to the Borrower, against the liabilities of the Borrower under the Finance Documents and the Lender is authorised to purchase with the monies standing to the credit of any such account such other currencies as may be necessary for this purpose. This Clause shall not affect any general or banker’s lien, right of set-off or other right to which the Lender may be entitled.

15.4

No Liability to Borrower. The Lender and its directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents shall not have any duties, responsibilities or obligations to the Borrower other than as expressly set out in this Agreement. In no event shall the Lender or its directors, officers, employees, affiliates and agents have any liability or obligation to the Borrower as a result of any act or omission by any of them in connection with the Facility or be liable for any loss incurred by the Borrower in any such case, except where such loss results directly from the gross negligence or wilful default of the Lender or its directors, officers, employees, affiliates or agents (but excluding in any case liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive losses or damages).

16.

WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY

Time is of the essence of this Agreement but no failure or delay by the Lender in exercising any right, power or remedy hereunder shall impair such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of the same preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. The rights, powers and remedies herein provided are cumulative and do not exclude any other rights, powers and remedies provided by law. If at any time any provision of this Agreement is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, the legality, validity and enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction, and of the remaining provisions of this Agreement, shall not be affected or impaired thereby.
