by the Agent.

 53.1.1
    
    For the benefit of the Finance Parties, each Obligor agrees that the courts of
England have (subject to sub-clause 53.1.3) exclusive jurisdiction to settle any
dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute
regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement and claims for
set-off and counterclaim) (a Dispute) and for such purpose each Obligor irrevocably
submits to the jurisdiction of the English courts.53.1.2
    
    The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient
courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary.53.1.3
    
    This Clause 53.1 (Jurisdiction) is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. As a
result, no Finance Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a
Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction and each Obligor irrevocably submits to
the jurisdiction of any such court. To the extent allowed by law, the Finance Parties
may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.53.1.4
    
    A final judgment or order in connection with a Finance Document of any court referred
to in this Clause 53.1 (Jurisdiction) is conclusive and binding on each Obligor and may
be enforced against it in the courts of any other jurisdiction.
 53.2
    
    Service of process
 Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, each Obligor:
 53.2.1
    
    irrevocably appoints Law Debenture Corporate Services Limited of Fifth Floor, 100
Wood Street, London EC2V 7EX, as its agent for service of process in relation to any
proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document;53.2.2
    
    agrees that failure by an agent for service of process to notify the relevant Obligor
of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned; and53.2.3
    
    if the agent referred to in Clause 53.2.1 ceases to be appointed, agrees to appoint
another agent with an address in England, promptly upon request by the Agent and
authorises the Agent to appoint another agent if either an Obligor fails to appoint one
following such request.
