The Service Providers shall render such invoice:

Following the expiry of the Initial Period, the Ad Hoc Service Fees or Continuous Service Fees shall be determined in

16.

	accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Ad Hoc Services Agreement or Continuous Services Agreement.
9.5	The Company shall also reimburse the Service Providers for all costs actually incurred by them in performing and rendering the Services pursuant to this Agreement, including, without limitation:

17.

9.8 The Service Providers shall keep, for a period of 5 years from the date of any Services invoice, copies of all documents and records that relate to such invoice, and the calculations recorded therein.

10. Liability of the Service Providers

10.1 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, none of the Service Providers, any company in the APL Group or the Anooraq Group, as the case may be, or any of their respective officers, directors or employees shall be liable to the Company or any other person, for any actual or contingent losses, claims, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses of any nature whatsoever which the Company or any other person may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with the performance or rendering of the Services (including any act or omission) by the Service Providers or their Representatives in terms of this Agreement, except by reason of, and to the extent of, the Service Providers or their Representatives (as the case may be) gross negligence and/or wilful misconduct or fraud, provided that any such liability shall be limited as follows:

10.1.1

in relation to any particular Ad Hoc Service giving rise to such liability, any such liability shall be limited to the Ad Hoc Service Fee paid by the Company in relation to such Ad Hoc Service; and

10.1.2

in relation to any Continuous Service giving rise to such liability, any such liability shall be limited to the total liability amount calculated in accordance with the provisions of clause 10.2, provided that all liabilities arising in relation to such Continuous Service in that Year shall, in aggregate, be limited to the total liability amount calculated in accordance with the provisions of clause 10.2.

10.2 The total liability amount referred to in clauses 10.1.2 shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

		Rt = 12 x Ry
		z
	where:	Rt	is the total liability amount to be calculated;
		Ry	is the total Continuous Service Fees amount paid to the applicable Service Provider in relation to the relevant

18.

		Continuous Service, since the start of the Year in which the liability arises; and
	z	is the number of completed calendar months that have elapsed since the start of the Year in which the liability arises.

By way of example, if 4 months of the Year in which the liability arises have elapsed, and the total Continuous Service Fees paid by the Company to the applicable Service Provider over that 4 month period, in relation to the relevant Continuous Service, is R200 000, then the total liability amount to be calculated will be R 600 000 (being 12 x ^R200000₄     , in accordance with the formula set out above).

10.3 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in no event will:

10.3.1	the Service Providers be liable to the Company for any indirect or consequential loss or damages; or
10.3.2	the Company be liable to the Service Providers for any indirect or consequential loss or damages.

10.4 The Service Providers shall not be responsible for any delay in providing, or failure to provide, any of the Services if the delay or failure results from the Company's failure to comply with any or all of its obligations in clause 8.

11. Indemnity

11.1 Without prejudice to any of the rights of the Service Providers or any company in either the APL Group or Anooraq Group, as the case may be, or any of their respective officers, directors or employees (together, the "Indemnified Parties") at law or in terms of any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall indemnify each of the Indemnified Parties against all actual and contingent losses, claims, liabilities, damages, costs (including, without limitation, legal costs on the scale as between attorney and own client and any additional legal costs) and expenses of any nature whatsoever which any of the Indemnified Parties may suffer or incur as a result of or in connection with the performance or rendering of the Services (including any act or omission) by the Service Providers, or any of their Representatives in terms of this Agreement ("Indemnified Loss"), except by reason of, and to the extent

19.

	of such Service Provider or its Representative's (as the case may be) gross negligence and/or wilful misconduct or fraud.
11.2	The Service Providers shall not admit any liability in respect of any claim which may be made in respect of any Indemnified Loss. The applicable Service Provider shall notify the Company of any such claim within a reasonable time after it becomes aware of such claim, to enable the Company to contest such claim.
11.3	The Service Providers give the Company authority to defend, compromise or settle the Indemnified Loss at the Company's own cost, but subject to such conditions and restrictions as the applicable Service Provider may reasonably stipulate if the Company's actions in relation to the Indemnified Loss could have implications outside of the actual liability concerned for the applicable Service Provider or any company in the APL Group or Anooraq Group, as the case may be. The applicable Service Provider shall act in accordance with the reasonable instructions of the Company in relation to such defence, compromise or settlement and shall give to the Company such assistance as it shall reasonably require in defending, settling or otherwise resolving the Company's liability.
11.4	The Company shall be obliged to pay the relevant Indemnified Parties the amount of any Indemnified Loss suffered or incurred by them as soon as they are obliged to pay the amount thereof (in the case of any Indemnified Loss which involves a payment by them) or as soon as they suffer the Indemnified Loss (in the case of an Indemnified Loss which does not involve a payment by them). If any Indemnified Party makes any payment in respect of the Indemnified Loss, the applicable Service Provider shall provide the Company with proof of such payment.

12. Force Majeure

12.1 Should either Party ("the Affected Party") be prevented from fulfilling any of its obligations (excluding the obligation to pay any amount due to be paid in terms of this Agreement) in terms of this Agreement in respect of the Services as a result of an Event of Force Majeure (as defined in clause 12.3), then:

12.1.1 those obligations shall be deemed to have been suspended to the extent that, and for so long as, the Affected Party shall so be prevented from

20.

	fulfilling them and the corresponding obligations of the other Party ("the Unaffected Party") shall be suspended to the corresponding extent;
12.1.2	the Affected Party shall promptly notify the Unaffected Party in writing of such Event of Force Majeure, and such notice shall include an estimation of the approximate period for which the suspension in terms of clause 12.1.1 will endure. Such estimate shall not be binding on the Affected Party; and
12.1.3	the duration of any period in which any Services affected by the Event of Force Majeure shall have been agreed to be performed, as well as each period within which, and each date by which, any obligation shall be required to be performed in terms of this Agreement, shall be extended or postponed, as the case may be, by the period of suspension in terms of clause 12.1.1.

12.2	In the event that the Affected Party shall partially or completely cease to be prevented from fulfilling its obligations (excluding the obligation to pay any amount due to be paid in terms of this Agreement) by the Event of Force Majeure, the Affected Party shall immediately give written notice to the Unaffected Party of such cessation, and the Affected Party shall, as soon as possible, fulfil its obligations which shall previously have been suspended; provided that, in the event, and to the extent that, fulfilment shall no longer be possible or the Unaffected Party shall have given written notice that it no longer requires such fulfilment, the Affected Party shall not be obliged to fulfil its suspended obligations, and the Unaffected Party shall not be obliged to fulfil its corresponding obligations.
