Facility Letter, and any free unutilized balance is available under the First Facility, the whole amount of such free unutilized balance can be made available to the Borrower for utilization under the Second Facility, subject to any limit stated in
the Facility Letter. The reverse shall apply if the interchangeability of the Facilities is stated to be operative vice versa in the relevant Facility Letter. For the avoidance of doubt, any balance of any Facility which is withheld by the Bank
shall not be treated as free unutilized balance of such Facility. 

  

	 	2.5	In case of T/R being granted, it means that T/R and S/G are granted such that the T/R are interchangeable with the S/G. 

 

	 	2.6	Unless otherwise stated in the relevant Facility Letter, whenever T/R are granted together with L/C, such T/R are granted by the Bank as part of the L/C so that the
utilization of the T/R is subject to the availability of free unutilized balance under the L/C and upon utilization, will reduce the free unutilized balance of the L/C by a corresponding amount. 

 

	 	2.7	In case of T/L or D/L, any advance under such Facility shall be made against a drawdown notice, except that no drawdown notice is required if an application by the
Borrower for opening a letter of credit has been accepted by the Bank, in which case drawdown shall be deemed to have been made at the time when payment or a commitment to pay is made by the Bank pursuant to the relevant letter of credit. If a
shipping guarantee shall be issued by the Bank on behalf of the Borrower, drawdown shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the Bank pays the beneficiary under the shipping guarantee. Any payment by the Bank in a currency other than the
currency of the relevant Facility shall be converted at the spot rate of exchange quoted by the Bank for buying the currency of payment with the currency of the relevant Facility. 

 

	 	2.8	If a drawdown notice specifies that the relevant advance shall be credited to an account opened in the name of a third party (and not the Borrower), the Borrower shall
remain liable for the repayment of the advance. 

  

	 	2.9	A drawdown notice shall be irrevocable once given. 

  

	 	2.10	Subject to the Bank’s overriding discretion, a drawdown will only be effected on a Business Day (which in the case of a Facility being denominated in USD shall
mean a day on which commercial banks in Hong Kong, London and New York City are open for business but excluding Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays).

	3.	Interest 

  

	 	3.1	All amounts advanced/drawn under the Facilities shall be charged with interest (as well before as after judgment and subject to fluctuation), commission and/or other
charges at such rates as specified in the relevant Facility Letter or at such standard rates specified in any schedule of charges published by the Bank from time to time, or such other rates as the Bank may from time to time determine in its
absolute discretion. The schedule of charges shall be made available to the Borrower at any time upon request. In the event that the interest rate(s) chargeable on any of the Facilities as a result of fluctuation or otherwise shall fall below zero,
the interest rate(s) chargeable on such Facilities shall be deemed to be zero. For the avoidance of doubt, the minimum interest rate chargeable on the Facilities at all times shall not fall below zero. 

 

	 	3.2	Unless otherwise specified in these General Terms and Conditions or the relevant Facility Letter, interest on the Facilities will accrue from day to day and be
calculated on the basis of actual number of days elapsed and a 365-day year for HKD and Pound Sterling or a 360-day year for other currencies or according to the market practice as the Bank may from time to time adopt in its absolute
discretion. 

  

	 	3.3	In the case of the Loan Facility(ies), unless otherwise specified in the Facility Letter, interest will accrue on the basis of actual number of days elapsed and a
365-day year for HKD and Pound Sterling or a 360-day year for currencies other than HKD and Pound Sterling or according to the market practice as the Bank may from time to time adopt in its absolute discretion. 

 

	 	3.4	All accrued interest shall be payable on demand, and if no demand is made, shall be paid on the due date of each instalment payable in respect of a Facility or, in the
case where the principal sum of the Facilities is not payable by periodical instalments, at such interval as the Bank may designate in the Facility Letter or according to the Bank’s customary practice as may be notified to the Borrower from
time to time and if not so paid, the Bank shall have the right to capitalize such unpaid interest as principal advance so that it shall bear interest at the same rate. 

 

	 	3.5	Subject to the Bank’s approval, if any Facility is drawn in a currency other than that specified in the Facility Letter, the interest rate applicable to such
Facility shall be such rate as determined by the Bank from time to time. 

  

	 	3.6	In respect of HKD O/D, DDC O/D and PDC O/D, the Bank shall be entitled to charge the highest of (i) the Original Interest Rate applicable to such facilities; or
(ii) the overnight HIBOR; or (iii) the Bank’s cost of funds as may be quoted by the Bank from time to time. 

  

	 	3.7	In respect of USD O/D, the Bank shall be entitled to charge the highest of (i) the Original Interest Rate applicable to such facilities; or (ii) the overnight
LIBOR plus 4% per annum; or (iii) the Bank’s cost of funds as may be quoted by the Bank from time to time. 

  

	 	3.8	In respect of any overdraft facility (including HKD O/D, DDC O/D, PDC O/D and USD O/D), the interest accrued thereon shall be payable on the last Business Day of each
month. Notwithstanding Clause 1 above and for the purpose of this Clause 3.8 only, “Business Day” shall mean a day on which commercial banks in Hong Kong are open for business but excluding Sundays and public holidays.

  

	 	3.9	In respect of Facilities other than overdraft facilities, if interest on any such Facilities is charged by reference to a Base Rate plus an interest margin or at a
fixed rate, and if for any reason whatsoever, the Base Rate is not available, or if the Bank’s cost of funds, as determined solely by the Bank, for maintaining such Facilities exceeds the Base Rate or the fixed rate, or if the Bank is unable to
obtain deposits to fund such Facilities, the Bank shall be entitled, without limiting the right of the Bank under Clause 3.1 to charge interest, commission or charges at such rates as it may determine from time to time, to charge interest at the
Bank’s cost of funds or the overnight HIBOR/ the overnight LIBOR (whichever is the highest) plus the said interest margin or where interest is charged at a fixed rate, an interest margin determined by the Bank. 

 

	 	3.10	In respect of a Loan Facility where the Borrower is entitled to choose the duration of interest periods, all accrued interest shall be paid in arrears at the end of
each interest period (“Interest Payment Date”). No interest period shall extend beyond the final maturity date as set out in the Facility Letter and if any interest period would otherwise extend beyond such date, it shall end on such date.
If the Bank receives no valid selection of an interest period from the Borrower, that interest period shall be one month. If any interest period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, it shall end on the immediately succeeding
Business Day, if there is one within the same calendar month, and, if not, on the immediately preceding Business Day. 

  

 4 

			
	
 

  
	  	 

  

	 	3.11	In the case where the principal sum of the Facilities are not payable by periodical instalments and the Bank designates in the Facility Letter that the interest accrued
on the Facilities are payable monthly in arrears, the first interest payment date shall be the date in the succeeding month corresponding to the date of the drawdown of the relevant Facilities and thereafter subsequent interest payment dates shall
be the corresponding dates in each and every succeeding months provided that no Interest Payment Date shall extend beyond the final maturity date of the relevant Facilities set out in the Facility Letter. 

 

	4.	Payment 

  

	 	4.1	All payments or repayments made by the Borrower to the Bank are to be made in the currency of the payment or liabilities made or incurred by the Bank under the Facility
Letter or otherwise in the converted currency if the Bank exercises its rights under Clause 4.3 (the “Applicable Currency”), in immediately available funds without set-off or counter-claim and free and clear of and without
withholding or deduction of any or all present or future taxes, duties or other charges. 

  

	 	4.2	No payment to the Bank (whether under any judgment, court order or otherwise) shall discharge the obligation or liability of the Borrower in respect of which it was
made unless and until the Bank shall have received payment in full in the Applicable Currency , and to the extent the amount of any such payment shall on actual conversion into the Applicable Currency fall short of such obligation or liability
expressed in the Applicable Currency, the Bank shall have a further separate cause of action against the Borrower. 

  

	 	4.3	The Bank hereby expressly reserves the right, at any time at its absolute discretion without giving any reason therefor, by giving 3 days’ prior notice in writing
to the Borrower to: - 

  

	 	(a)	convert all or any outstanding indebtedness, liabilities and/or obligations due, owing or incurred by the Borrower under any Facility denominated in the currency
specified in the Facility Letter for the relevant Facility into HKD; or 

  

	 	(b)	convert all or any outstanding indebtedness, liabilities and/or obligations due, owing or incurred by the Borrower under any Facility denominated in a currency other
than that specified in the Facility Letter for the relevant Facility into the currency so specified for the relevant Facility or into HKD, as the Bank may deem fit in its absolute discretion. 

 

	 	  	The aforesaid conversion shall be at the then prevailing rate of exchange as the Bank may determine conclusively. For the avoidance of doubt, after such conversion, the
Bank shall be entitled to re-determine the applicable interest rate for the converted indebtedness, liabilities and/or obligations on the basis that the same are denominated in HKD or (as the case may be) in the currency specified in the Facility
Letter for the relevant Facility. 

  

	 	4.4	Any payment made to the Bank in a currency other than the Applicable Currency may at the Bank’s absolute discretion be converted into the Applicable Currency to
cover the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower in that currency at the then prevailing spot rate of exchange as conclusively determined by the Bank for purchasing the Applicable Currency with the existing currency. 

 

	 	4.5	All payments made by the Borrower to the Bank shall be accepted upon and subject to the Bank’s practice and terms and conditions and where applicable to the rules
of any relevant clearing system for the time being and from time to time in force, and shall be deemed not to have been made until such time as the relevant funds have been cleared and received for value by the Bank. 

 

	5.	Repayment 

  

	 	5.1	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Facility Letter and in these General Terms and Conditions but subject to Clause 27.8 hereof, the Bank reserves
the overriding right to demand immediate repayment of all the outstanding indebtedness, liabilities and/or obligations (including interest and default interest thereon) due, owing or incurred by the Borrower (actual or contingent) to the Bank
under or in respect of the Facilities. 

  

	 	5.2	Unless otherwise provided in the Facility Letter and/or these General Terms and Conditions and/or General Terms and Conditions for Mortgage Loan Facility or agreed by
the Bank in writing, in the case of the Facilities being payable by monthly instalments, the first instalment shall be due and payable one month after the drawdown of the relevant Facilities; in the case of the Facilities being payable by bi-weekly
instalments, the first instalment shall be due and payable two weeks after the drawdown of the relevant Facilities. 

  

 5 

			
	
 

  
	  	 

  

	 	5.3	Subject to the Bank’s approval, in the case of the Facilities being payable by the Borrower by monthly instalments, the Borrower may designate a day of each
successive month as pre-set payment dates for payment of the monthly instalments to the Bank. The first pre-set payment date shall be the pre-set payment date which immediately follows the date of drawdown of the relevant Facilities. If the first
pre-set payment date is not the date falling one month from the drawdown date of the relevant Facilities :- 

  

	 	(a)	the first monthly instalment shall be due and payable on the second pre-set payment date and the subsequent monthly instalments on the corresponding subsequent pre-set
payment dates; 

  

	 	(b)	interest on the relevant Facilities shall accrue on a daily basis for the period from the drawdown date of the Facilities to the first pre-set payment date (the
“Extended Interest”); 

  

	 	(c)	the amount due and payable for the first monthly instalment shall be a sum representing the monthly instalment payable (calculated as if the relevant Facilities were
drawn on the first pre-set payment date) together with the Extended Interest. 

  

	 	  	If the first pre-set payment date is the date falling one month from the drawdown date of the relevant Facilities, the first monthly instalment shall be due and payable
on the first pre-set payment date and there shall be no Extended Interest payable by the Borrower. 

  

	 	5.4	If there is any variation in the interest rate resulting from a change in the Base Rate, the Bank may vary either the amount or number of instalments or both at the
Bank’s sole discretion and will notify the Borrower subsequently. Subject to the Borrower’s payment of the Bank’s cost, a revised instalment payment schedule will be provided to the Borrower upon request. 

 

	 	5.5	In respect of T/L or D/L where HIBOR or LIBOR is used as the Base Rate and where repayment is required to be made on an Interest Payment Date only, or in respect of
R/L, if a repayment is not made on an Interest Payment Date, the Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any break-funding cost which would have been incurred in the amount certified by the Bank. 

 

	 	5.6	Unless it is provided in the Facility Letter that the principal of the Facilities is payable by instalments, the principal of the Facilities shall be repaid in full on
the final maturity date set out in the Facility Letter. 

  

	 	5.7	If the Borrower shall anticipate or experience any difficulty in repaying or servicing the Facilities, the Borrower shall inform the Bank as soon as possible.

  

	6.	Default interest/charges 

  

	 	6.1	Time shall be of the essence of any payment or repayment to be made by the Borrower. 

 

	 	6.2	The Bank reserves the right to charge default interest (as well after as before judgment) on a day to day basis on any sum which is not paid when due: -

  

	 	(a)	In respect of HKD O/D, DDC O/D, PDC O/D, at (i) the HKD Prime plus the Default Margin, or (ii) the overnight HIBOR, or (iii) the Bank’s cost of funds,
whichever is the highest, provided that the foregoing default rate and method of calculation shall apply irrespective of whether the due but unpaid overdrafts fall within the overdraft limit previously allowed by the Bank or otherwise.

  

	 	(b)	In respect of USD O/D, at (i) the USD Prime plus the Default Margin, or (ii) the overnight LIBOR plus 4% per annum, or (iii) the Bank’s cost of
funds, whichever is the highest, provided that the foregoing default rate and method of calculation shall apply irrespective of whether the due but unpaid overdrafts fall within the overdraft limit previously allowed by the Bank or otherwise.

  

	 	(c)	For Loan Facility(ies), at the higher of (i) Default Margin plus the prime rate for the relevant currency and as may from time to time be quoted by the Bank, or
(ii) the Bank’s cost of funds; or such other rates as the Bank may from time to time determine at its absolute discretion. 

  

	 	(d)	For Facilities other than HKD O/D, DDC O/D, PDC O/D, USD O/D and Loan Facility(ies), at (i) Default Margin plus the prime rate for the relevant currency and as may
from time to time be quoted by the Bank, or (ii) the overnight inter-bank offered rate for the relevant currency and as may from time to time be quoted by the Bank, or (iii) the Bank’s cost of funds whichever is the highest; or such
other rates as the Bank may determine from time to time at its absolute discretion. 

  

	         6.3
	(a)	 In respect of HKD O/D, DDC O/D and PDC O/D, the Bank shall have the right to charge default interest at the higher of (i) such
default rate and in such method of calculation as set out in Sub-clause 6.2(a) on any sum which is overdrawn in excess of the applicable pre-agreed overdraft limit, whether such excess is allowed by the Bank in the exercise of its discretion or upon
the request of the Borrower or otherwise, or (ii) the Original Interest Rate. 

  

 6 

			
	
 

  
	  	 

  

	 	(b)	In respect of USD O/D, the Bank shall have the right to charge default interest at (i) the USD Prime plus 6% per annum, or (ii) the overnight LIBOR plus
4% per annum or, (iii) the Bank’s cost of funds, or (iv) the Original Interest Rate applicable to the USD O/D, whichever is the highest, on any sum which is overdrawn in excess of the applicable pre-agreed overdraft limit,
whether such excess is allowed by the Bank in the exercise of its discretion or upon the request of the Borrower or otherwise. 

  

	 	6.4	Default interest shall accrue on a day to day basis and be calculated from the date when payment is due up to the date of final payment in full. In the case of the Loan
Facility(ies) being payable by monthly instalments, default interest shall accrue and be calculated from the due date of the relevant instalment payment on a half-monthly basis with a 30-day month, up to the half-month in which actual payment in
full has been made. The first 15 days from the due date shall be the first half month and the following 15 days shall be the second half month. The subsequent successive half-month periods shall be determined accordingly. In the case of the Loan
Facility(ies) being payable other than by monthly instalments, calculated from the due date of the relevant instalment or interest payment on a daily basis up to the day on which actual payment in full has been made. The provisions in this Clause
6.4 shall not prejudice or affect the Bank’s rights to charge default interest under Clause 6.2 above. 

  

	 	6.5	Apart from default interest, the Bank reserves the right to charge the Borrower Default Administrative Charges of HKD500.00 or such other amount as determined by
the Bank from time to time, on each time when the Borrower fails to make a payment on its due date. In addition, if the Bank shall determine in its absolute discretion that it is necessary to instruct lawyers to issue letter of demand to the
Borrower or to take any other recovery action against the Borrower after the Borrower has failed to make any payment on its due date, the Bank shall have the right to recover all the legal costs of reasonable amount and reasonably incurred by the
Bank and the Borrower shall be obliged to pay such costs to the Bank upon demand. 

  

	 	6.6	For the avoidance of doubt, in case the Original Interest Rate chargeable on the overdue sum shall exceed the default rate specified in Clause 6.2, the Bank shall have
the right to continue to apply such Original Interest Rate notwithstanding the sum is overdue. 

  

	 	6.7	The Bank reserves the right to compound default interest at such intervals as it deems fit. 

 

	7.	Forward F/X 

  

	 	7.1	All Forward F/X dealings shall be subject to the terms and conditions stipulated by the Bank from time to time and the market practices prevailing for the time being
and must be settled before 3:00 p.m. Hong Kong time on the relevant value date or delivery date for any particular transaction or such other time as may be required by the Bank. 

 

	8.	Facilities granted to two or more Borrowers severally 

  

	 	8.1	If, under any Facility Letter, the Facilities are granted to two or more Borrowers severally, such Facilities or any part or parts thereof may, subject to the
Bank’s prior approval, be utilized by any one of the relevant Borrowers within such sub-limits (the “Sub-Limits”) (if they are expressly stipulated in the relevant Facility Letter or otherwise imposed by the Bank) and upon such
terms as the Bank may determine from time to time. In any event, the Borrowers may not in aggregate borrow more than the amount of the Facilities. For the purpose of this Clause 8, the Facilities that are granted to two or more Borrowers severally
are hereinafter called the “Global Facilities” and the facility limit in respect of the Global Facilities is called the “Global Limit”. 

 

	 	8.2	For the avoidance of doubt, unless Sub-Limits are stipulated in the Facility Letter or otherwise imposed by the Bank, the Bank may allow any one or more of the
Borrowers to utilize the Global Facilities up to the full extent of the Global Limit, provided that unless the Bank in its absolute discretion agrees, the aggregate utilization of the Global Facilities at any time by all of the relevant Borrowers in
respect of each type of the Global Facilities shall not exceed the relevant Global Limit(s) of such Global Facilities. 

  

	 	8.3	Where there are Sub-Limits stipulated in the Facility Letter or otherwise imposed by the Bank, all the Borrowers acting together by themselves or through an authorized
representative(s) may apply to the Bank to vary the Sub-Limits allocated to each of the Borrowers by giving the Bank not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior notice. The Bank reserves the absolute discretion to determine whether to
accept or reject any such application. 

  

	 	8.4	Upon approval by the Bank of any application to vary the Sub-Limits, each of the relevant Borrowers shall be bound by the variation and any condition imposed by the
Bank in respect of such variation. 

  

 7 

			
	
 

  
	  	 

  

	 	8.5	Notwithstanding anything herein contained, the Bank reserves the absolute right to re-allocate the Global Facilities and/or the Global Limits and/or the Sub-Limits (if
any) at any time and at the Bank’s sole and absolute discretion. 

  

	 	8.6	For the avoidance of doubt, all provisions contained in these General Terms and Conditions applicable to the Facilities shall equally apply to the Global Facilities and
insofar as the relevant Borrower’s utilization of and liabilities under or relating to the Global Facilities are concerned, each of the Borrowers to whom the Global Facilities is granted shall be bound by the provisions contained in these
General Terms and Conditions. 

  

	9.	Facilities to be used by third parties 

  

	 	9.1	Subject to the Bank’s prior approval, the Bank may, at the request of the Borrower, allow the Facilities granted to the Borrower to be utilized by third parties
(the “Co-user(s)”) upon the following conditions and other additional conditions as the Bank may from time to time impose:- 

  

	 	(a)	any utilization of the Facilities by the Co-user(s) shall be booked under the account(s) of the Borrower and the Borrower shall be fully liable for the same to the Bank
as if it were the party actually utilizing the Facilities; 

  

	 	(b)	in addition and without prejudice to sub-clause (a) above, the Co-user(s) shall, in addition to the Borrower, be fully liable to the Bank in respect of their
utilization of the Facilities as if the Facilities were granted in their favour and utilized by them under their own account(s). In this regard, the Co-user(s) shall be bound by these General Terms and Conditions and any other terms and conditions
under which the Bank has agreed to grant the Facilities to the Borrower, as if the Co-user(s) is/are the Borrower named therein; and 

  

	 	(c)	in case the Borrower has given any guarantee in favour of the Bank for the obligations and liabilities of the Co-user(s) under general banking facilities granted
or to be granted by the Bank in favour of the Co-user(s), such guarantee shall for all intent and purposes cover the obligations and liabilities of the Co-user(s) under sub-clause (b) above. For the avoidance of doubt, this provision shall not
be affected in case the liability of the Borrower under sub-clause (a) above is or becomes unenforceable or avoided for whatever reason. 

  

	10.	Prepayment 

  

	 	10.1	Unless otherwise provided in the Facility Letter, prepayment under the Loan Facility(ies) shall be subject to the following conditions :- 

 

	 	(a)	where the principal sum of the Loan Facility(ies) is repayable by instalments, all prepayments (whether total or partial) must be paid on an instalment payment date of
the Loan Facility(ies), otherwise the Bank shall be entitled to charge interest on the amount to be prepaid up to the next coming instalment payment date; 

  

	 	(b)	in respect of T/L where HIBOR or LIBOR is used as the Base Rate, if a prepayment is not made on an Interest Payment Date, the Borrower shall indemnify the Bank for any
break-funding cost which would have been incurred in the amount certified by the Bank; 

  

	 	(c)	the Borrower shall give to the Bank at least 1 month’s prior notice in writing of the Borrower’s intention to prepay whether in whole or in part the
outstanding amount of the Loan Facility(ies). Such notice shall be irrevocable once given. If the Borrower fails to give such notice in the prescribed manner, a prepayment fee as may be specified by the Bank from time to time and displayed or posted
in the Bank’s banking halls shall be payable by the Borrower on or before the prepayment; 

  

	 	(d)	any partial prepayment shall be in the minimum sum of HKD50,000.00. In the case of any partial prepayment, the Bank may, at its discretion, vary either the
amount of the monthly instalment or the number of future instalments; 

  

	 	(e)	amount prepaid shall be subject to the Bank’s right of appropriation under Clause 17 below; 

 

	 	(f)	any prepayment of the principal of the Loan Facility(ies) shall include all interest accrued thereon and may not be re-borrowed; 

 

	 	(g)	all or any sums or liabilities (actual or contingent) payable by the Borrower in connection with the Loan Facility(ies) shall be paid or discharged by the Borrower
on or before the prepayment; and

 8

be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

	 	(a)	review the Facilities at any time (if applicable, prior to the review date stated in the Facility Letter) and the Facilities shall terminate forthwith (if applicable,
even if prior to the said review date) as and when the Bank has given to the Borrower notice of termination; and 

  

	 	(b)	increase, reduce and/or cancel the Facilities or any part or parts thereof or to vary or amend the terms and conditions thereof at any time at its sole and absolute
discretion to be effective forthwith (if applicable, even if prior to the said review date) by notice in writing to the Borrower. 

  

	 	12.2	A renewal fee shall be payable by the Borrower when the Facilities or any part or parts thereof are renewed, extended or otherwise revised by the Bank.

premium receipt shall be lodged with the Bank forthwith after the Borrower has accepted the relevant Facility Letter under which the Facilities are granted (but in any event prior to the drawdown of the Facilities), and in the case of renewal of any
insurance policy, fifteen(15) days before the expiry of the current insurance policy, provided always that if the Borrower fails to perform its obligation as aforesaid, the Bank shall be entitled (but not be obliged) to take out or renew at the
Borrower’s costs and expenses the said insurance policy for the Borrower with such insurance company, for such insured amount and on such terms as the Bank shall determine;

against fire risks with an insurance company acceptable to the Bank for an amount approved by the Bank. If the amount insured is the full replacement value of the property(ies) and the Bank requires valuation of the property(ies) to be conducted by
the Bank’s nominated surveyor from time to time, the Borrower shall be liable to reimburse the Bank on demand all valuation charges, so incurred; 

  

	 	(d)	where the property(ies) mortgaged is/are property(ies) other than residential properties, such property(ies) has/have to be insured through the Bank’s appointed

interest rate shall take immediate effect unless otherwise agreed by the Bank. All costs and expenses (including the Bank’s legal costs on a full indemnity basis) reasonably incurred by the Bank in giving the consent shall be borne and paid by
the Borrower; and 

  

	 	(g)	on default in payment of any of the Facilities, the Bank may take possession of and sell the property(ies) pursuant to the terms of the relevant mortgage or charge

 9 

			
	
 

  
	  	 

  

	14.	Property valuation fees
