 As between the Guarantor and the Lender but without
affecting the Borrower’s obligations, the Guarantor shall be liable under this Clause as if it were the sole principal debtor and not merely the surety and accordingly the Guarantor shall not be discharged nor shall any of its liabilities be

 The liabilities and obligations of the
Guarantor under this Guarantee shall remain in force, notwithstanding any act, omission or neglect whatsoever of Borrower until payment of all Secured Indebtedness. Without prejudice to its generality, the foregoing shall apply in relation to

identity or loss of corporate identity by, Borrower or any other person. 
  

	2.04	Discharge to be void if payment is not valid 

 Any such discharge or release, and any
composition or arrangement which the Guarantor may effect with Borrower shall be deemed to be made subject to the condition that it shall be void if any payment or security which the Lender may previously have received or may thereafter receive from
Borrower or the Guarantor or any other person in respect of the Secured Indebtedness is set aside under any applicable law or proves to have been for any reason invalid. 
  

	2.05	Demand

 4 

	 	(c)	The Guarantor may refuse to satisfy and pay the Lender for the same reasons of the Borrower as long as the Borrower is entitled to refuse the payment of the Secured Indebtedness under the Facility Agreement by reason of
the Borrower disagreeing that an Event of Default has arisen or that the demand pursuant to Clause 11.2 of the Facility Agreement has been lawfully made If it is in dispute whether the Borrower may refuse the payment of the Secured
Indebtedness, the Guarantor is entitled to refuse to satisfy the Lender as long as the Lender has not provided the Guarantor with a final and absolute judgment of a court pursuant to Clause 5.04 of this Guarantee. 

 

	 	(d)	In case that the Guarantor pays under the Guarantee the Lender shall assign irrevocably all claims against the Borrower to the extent of the amount paid by the Guarantor under the Guarantee and the surety satisfies
these claims.

hereof, none of the liabilities or obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be impaired by the Lender: 
  

	 	(a)	agreeing with Borrower any variation or departure of or from any of the terms and conditions of the Facility Agreement so that any such variation or departure (including any which may have been made before the signing

Agreement or this Guarantee; 

  

	 	(b)	releasing or granting any time or any indulgence whatsoever to Borrower or the Guarantor or any third party and, in particular, waiving any of the conditions precedent under the Facility Agreement or waiving any
