take effect as (or, as the case may be, become) a floating charge. 
  
 3.4
Conversion of Floating Charge to Fixed Charge. The Security Agent may at any time by notice in writing to the Chargor convert the floating charge hereby created into a fixed charge as regards any property, assets or rights specified in the
notice if:

seized or sold pursuant to any form of legal process; or

Agent reasonably considers that it is desirable to do so in order to protect or preserve the security created by or pursuant to this Deed over that Charged Asset and/or its priority. 
  
 The service by the Security Agent of any notice pursuant to this Clause 3.4 (Conversion of Floating Charge to Fixed Charge) in
relation to any Charged Asset shall not be construed as a waiver or abandonment of the Security Agent’s rights to serve similar notices in respect of any other Charged Asset or of any other rights of the Security Agent under this Deed.

  
 3.5 Automatic Crystallization. Notwithstanding Clause 3.4
(Conversion of Floating Charge to Fixed Charge) and without prejudice to any rule of law which may have a similar effect, the floating charge under Clause 3.3 (Floating Charge) shall automatically be converted with immediate effect
into a fixed charge as regards all the property and assets subject to the floating charge and without notice from the Security Agent to the Chargor upon: 
  
 (a) the presentation of a petition for the compulsory winding up of the Chargor; 
  

(b) the convening of a meeting for the passing of a resolution for the voluntary winding up or judicial management of the Chargor; 
  
 (c) the presentation or making of an application for a warrant of execution, garnishee order,
charging order or other similar process in respect of any part of the property or assets of the Chargor subject to the floating charge;

pursuant to this Deed) or attempting or taking or suffering any steps so to do. 
  
 3.6 De-crystallization. If the floating charge over any Charged Assets becomes fixed in accordance with Clause 3.4 (Conversion of Floating Charge to Fixed Charge) or 3.5 (Automatic Crystallization) it shall again become
a floating charge over those Charged Assets if the Security Agent gives the Chargor a notice in writing to that effect. 
  
 3.7 Notice. The Chargor will, forthwith upon the execution of this Deed (or, if later, upon any policy or contract of insurance comprised in the Insurances coming
into force), give notice of the assignment of the Insurances herein contained to and obtain an acknowledgement from the relevant insurers substantially in the form set out in Schedule 2 and in any event in a form satisfactory to the Security Agent.

  
 3.8 Dealings with Parties. Notwithstanding the assignment of the
Insurances herein contained but otherwise subject to the terms of this Deed, the Security Agent authorizes the Chargor to continue to deal with the other parties to the Insurances and each of them in relation thereto as if the Chargor remained
solely entitled to all the right, title, interest and benefit thereunder but, save as herein provided, not directly to receive any moneys payable under the Insurances provided that if an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default occurs the
foregoing authority shall immediately cease to have effect. 
  

 6 








 3.9 Condition of Deposit. Notwithstanding any other terms on which any monies or Receivables may have been
deposited in any Receivables Account, it is a condition of such deposit that, throughout the subsistence of this Deed for so long as any Secured Indebtedness is or may become payable, unless the Security Agent otherwise agrees in writing or the
terms of the Guarantee Issuance Facility Agreement otherwise permit, no Receivables Account nor any part thereof shall be in any way assignable or transferable and no Encumbrance or trust shall be capable of being created over or in respect of any
Receivables Account or any part thereof. 
  
 3.10 Operation of Receivables
Accounts. 
  
 (a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Chargor shall be
entitled to receive, withdraw or otherwise transfer any credit balance from time to time on any Receivables Account in the ordinary course of its business; 
  
 (b) At any time after the declaration by the Security Agent of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default or, if earlier, the conversion of any floating charge
created by Clause 3.1(A)(b) (Floating Charge) into a fixed charge in accordance with Clause 3.4 (Conversion of Floating Charge to Fixed Charge) or Clause 3.5 (Automatic Crystallization), the Chargor shall not be entitled to
receive, withdraw or otherwise transfer any credit balance from time to time on any Receivables Account except with the prior consent of the Security Agent; and 
  

(c) The Chargor shall not release, grant time or indulgence or compound with any third party or suffer to arise any set-off or other adverse rights against any
Receivables Account nor do or omit to do anything which may delay or prejudice the right of the Security Agent to receive payment from any Receivables Account at any time after the security created by or pursuant to this Deed has become
enforceable. 
  
 3.11 Discharge. Upon payment in full of all the
Secured Indebtedness to the satisfaction of the Finance Parties, the Security Agent shall, at the request and cost of the Chargor, and in such form as the Security Agent shall approve, discharge the security created by this Deed, subject to Clause
18.5 (Release of Charge Conditional). 
  
 4. Continuing Security

  
 4.1 Continuing Security. This Deed shall be a continuing security and
shall remain in full force and effect until the Secured Indebtedness has been paid in full and the Finance Parties do not have any further obligation or liability (actual or contingent) under the Guarantee Issuance Facility Agreement or any Security
Document, notwithstanding the insolvency or liquidation or any incapacity or change in the constitution or status of the Chargor or any other person or any intermediate settlement of account or other matter whatsoever. 
  
 4.2 Independent Security. This Deed is in addition to, and independent of, any
Encumbrance, guarantee or other security or right or remedy now or at any time in the future held by or available to the Finance Parties.

Withholdings) Provided always that the Finance Party shall:

balance or other indebtedness at the prevailing rate of exchange into such other currencies as may be necessary for this purpose.

the Receiver (and any attorney or delegate of either of them) from and against all losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses reasonably incurred by it or them in the execution or performance of the terms and conditions hereof and against all
actions, proceedings, claims, demands, costs, charges and expenses which may be incurred, sustained or arise in respect of the non-performance or non-observance of any of the undertakings and agreements on the part of the Chargor herein contained or
in respect of any matter or thing done or omitted relating in any way whatsoever to the Charged Assets provided that the Chargor shall not be obliged to indemnify any person pursuant to this Clause 13.1 (General Indemnity) to the extent that
any such losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses were caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of that person. 
  
 13.2 Currency Indemnity. If an amount due to any Finance Party from the Chargor in one currency (the “first currency”) under this Deed is received by
such Finance Party in another currency (the “second currency”), the Chargor’s obligations to such Finance Party in respect of such amount shall only be discharged to the extent that such Finance Party may purchase the first currency
with the second currency in accordance with normal banking procedures. If the amount of the first currency which may be so purchased (after deducting any costs of exchange and any other related costs) is less than the amount so due, the Chargor
shall indemnify such Finance Party against the shortfall. This indemnity shall be an obligation of the Chargor independent of and in addition to its other obligations under this Deed. 
  
 13.3 Payment and Security. The Security Agent may retain and pay out of any money in the Security Agent’s hands all sums
necessary to effect the indemnities contained in this Clause and all sums payable by the Chargor under this Clause shall form part of the monies hereby secured.

 A certificate signed by an authorized officer of the Security Agent stating any amount or rate (and showing reasonable detail of the basis and the computation of such
amount or rate) for the purpose of this Deed shall, in the absence of fraud or manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Chargor. 
  
 15. Further Assurance 
  
 15.1 Further Assurance. The Chargor shall at any time and from time to time (whether before or after the security hereby created shall have become enforceable) execute such further legal or other mortgages,

and rights both present and future of the Chargor to secure all monies, obligations and liabilities hereby covenanted to be paid or hereby secured or for the purposes of perfecting and completing any assignment of the Security Agent’s rights,
benefits or obligations hereunder and the Chargor shall also give all notices, orders and directions which the Security Agent may reasonably require.

 The Chargor hereby irrevocably appoints the Security Agent, the Receiver and any persons deriving title under either of them by way of security jointly and severally to
be its attorney (with full power of substitution) and in its name or otherwise on its behalf and as its act and deed to sign, seal, execute, deliver, perfect and do all deeds, instruments, acts and things which may be required or which the Security
Agent or the Receiver shall reasonably think proper or expedient for carrying out any obligations imposed on the Chargor hereunder or, for carrying out any obligation imposed on for exercising any of the powers hereby conferred or in connection with
any sale or disposition of the Charged Assets or the exercise of any rights in respect thereof or for giving to the Security Agent the full benefit of this security and so that the appointment hereby made shall operate to confer on the Security
Agent and the Receiver authority to do on behalf of the Chargor anything which it can lawfully do by an attorney. Provided that the parties hereby agree that the Security Agent, the Receiver and any persons deriving title under either of them shall
not exercise the powers and authorities hereby conferred until the occurrence of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default.

 17.2 Opening of New Account. If any Finance Party receives actual or constructive
notice, of any subsequent charge or other instrument affecting any part of the Charged Assets and/or the proceeds of realization thereof, such Finance Party may open a new account with the Chargor. If such Finance Party does not open a new account
it shall nevertheless be treated as if it had done so at the time when it received or was deemed to have received notice, and as from that time all payments made to it shall be credited or be treated as having been credited to the new account and
