	 	(h)	 Each Bondholder, the Bond Trustee and, if the Bonds are listed, representatives of the Exchange, or any person
or persons acting under a power of attorney for a Bondholder, shall have the right to attend the Bondholders’ Meeting (each a “Representative”). The Chairperson may grant access to the meeting to other persons not being

the quorum requirements set out in paragraph (d) of Clause 15.1 (Authority of the Bondholders’ Meeting) shall not apply to a repeated Bondholders’ Meeting. A Summons for a repeated Bondholders’ Meeting shall also contain
the voting results obtained in the initial Bondholders’ Meeting.

Bondholders Meetings); or 


  

	 	(ii)	 provisions which are otherwise in conflict with the requirements of this Clause 15.5 (Written
Resolution), 


 shall not apply to a Written Resolution.

(f) of Clause 15.1 (Authority of Bondholders’ Meeting) has been obtained, based on a quorum of the total number of Voting Bonds, even if the Voting Period has not yet expired. A Written Resolution will also be resolved if the
sufficient numbers of negative votes are received prior to the expiry of the Voting Period. 


  

	 	(h)	 The effective date of a Written Resolution passed prior to the expiry of the Voting Period is the date when the
resolution is approved by the last Bondholder that results in the necessary voting majority being obtained. 



  
 32 














	 	(i)	 If no resolution is passed prior to the expiry of the Voting Period, the number of votes shall be calculated at
