              The Royalty Fee Prepayment Amount shall be determined as required in accordance with paragraph (b)(i) above by an Independent Expert to be appointed by the Company and the Bank. The Company, the Bank and the
                Independent Expert will execute together the terms of engagement of such Independent Expert.

              The Independent Expert shall decide on the procedure and timetable to be followed in the determination of the Royalty Fee Prepayment Amount and shall require the parties to provide each other with or with
                access to the relevant information and documents.

              When providing its determination, the Independent Expert shall not be obliged to give reasons for its determination and its determination (including any calculation, statement or other information) shall,
                save in the case of fraud or manifest error, be final and binding on the Company and the Bank. The Independent Expert shall deliver its determination and any calculation, statement or other information required to be provided by it by this
                Agreement to the parties in English in writing on or before the date falling thirty (30) Business Days after the date of its appointment.

              (h)

            	
              If the Independent Expert is unable for whatever reason to act, or does not deliver the decision within the time required, the Company and the Bank shall ensure that a replacement expert is appointed in
                accordance with the terms of this clause 3.2.

              The Company shall supply to the Bank, as soon as they become available but in any event within 90 days after the end of each of its financial years its audited consolidated (if any) and unconsolidated annual

              Not more than once in any year subject to reasonable notice, the Bank may appoint an accountant to inspect the relevant parts of the Company's books and records in order to verify the accounts.  Any audit

              If the Company fails to pay any amount payable by it under this Agreement on its due date, interest shall accrue on any such overdue amount from the due date to the date of actual payment at an annual rate
