 ARTICLE 4 

SECURITY INTEREST; RANKING 
  
 Section 4.1 Security Interest. As security for the performance of the Company’s obligations under this Agreement, the Company agrees (a) that
this Agreement with BNU also constitutes a pledge agreement over the Cash Deposit to BNU, and (b) to enter into the Deed of Appointment and Priority pursuant to which the Security Agent will hold for and on behalf of BNU, as Second Ranking Finance
Party, an interest over the Security. 
  
 Section 4.2
Ranking. The Company shall ensure that, for so long as the Bank Guarantee is in place, the security interests granted to BNU under the Security Documents shall rank ahead of all claims of Senior Unsecured Creditors of the Company to the
extent and as provided in the Deed of Appointment and Priority, the Common Terms Agreement and the other Security Documents but shall be fully subordinated to those security interests granted to the Senior Secured Creditors pursuant to the
Senior Finance Documents. 
  
 Section 4.3 Deed of Appointment
and Priority. BNU agrees to enter into a Deed of Appointment and Priority with the Senior Secured Creditors and the Company covering such matters as subordination, repayment, exercise of remedies, declaration of defaults and voting. In the event
of any conflict between the Deed of Appointment and Priority and this Agreement, the Deed of Appointment and Priority will control. 
  
 Section 4.4 Waivers, Consents and Approvals. The covenants of Schedule 5 of the Common Terms Agreement (or the covenants of any amended,
supplemented, refinanced or replacement Senior Finance Documents) shall apply mutatis mutandis to BNU where the context permits such construction, and to the extent the context does not permit such construction, such provisions shall apply as
closely as possible under the circumstances. Any and all waivers, including of a Default or of an Event of Default, consents or approvals made or given, or deemed given, by the holders of the Senior Debt (or any agent or adviser acting on their
behalf) under the Facility Agreements shall apply to BNU with the same effect as if the waiver had been given by BNU.

thereon to the Company free of any claim, charge, lien, security interest or similar interest upon the earlier of: 
  

	 	(a)	certification by an Authorized Officer of the Company to BNU that (i) the Company has utilized all of its total Base Equity (other than the Cash Deposit) and (ii) the Cash Deposit
will be used to fund Project Costs (together, the “Cost Certification”); and 

  

	 	(b)	cancellation of the Bank Guarantee by the Macau SAR. 

  
 Section 5.3 Set-off of the Cash Deposit. If any amount owed by the Company to BNU is not repaid within fourteen (14) days after a notice having
been validly issued and 

  

 5 








 
delivered to the Company in accordance with Section 3.1, BNU may set off such amount against any remaining Cash Deposit. Upon set off by BNU against any of
the assets of the Company, any amount owed by the Company under this Agreement shall be reduced by such set-off amount. 
  
 Section 5.4 Permitted Investments. The Company and BNU shall discuss and agree on the type of investments in which the Company may, from time to
time, invest any and all of the Cash Deposit (including any accrued interest thereon), provided that (a) the investment rights are assigned to BNU by way of pledge or endorsement and subject to the terms of this Agreement, (b) BNU shall not
unreasonably withhold its approval on any investments proposed by the Company and (c) such investments shall be limited to those that are Permitted Investments.
