	3.	Termination of FX Transactions 

  

	 	(a)	The Bank may, at its discretion, and without prior notice, terminate any or all outstanding FX Transactions on the happening of any of the following events:- 

  

	 	(i)	the Customer fails to perform, or indicates its intention not to perform, any obligation of the Customer to the Bank or to any other financial institution; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the occurrence of a material adverse change in the financial position of the Customer; or 

  

	 	(iii)	the Bank requires as a condition of a FX Transaction that any margin or other security be given to the Bank and the margin or security is not provided or maintained at a level satisfactory to
the Bank; or 

  

	 	(iv)	the aggregate mark-to-market losses to the Customer under outstanding FX Transactions exceed any limit which has been previously advised by the Bank to the Customer; or

  

	 	(v)	the Bank determines that it is or is likely to be impracticable or illegal for either the Bank or the Customer, or both, to perform any FX Transaction; or 

  

	 	(vi)	the Customer becomes insolvent or any proceedings are commenced seeking a judgment of or arrangement for bankruptcy, rehabilitation, reorganisation, administration, winding up, liquidation or
other similar relief in respect of the Customer or the Customer’s debts or assets, or the appointment of a trustee, receiver, liquidator, conservator, administrator or other similar official of the Customer or any substantial part of the
Customer’s assets. 

  

	 	(b)	Upon the termination of any FX Transaction pursuant to this condition, the payments otherwise due on the maturity date of each FX Transaction so terminated shall not be required to be made,
but instead the payment provided for in sub-clause (c) below shall be made by the relevant party. 

  

	 	(c)	The Bank shall determine, for each terminated FX Transaction, the amount of its loss (expressed as a negative amount) or profit (expressed as a positive amount) as a result of the termination
of such FX Transaction, and shall notify the Customer of the amounts determined. The net sum of such profits and losses for all terminated FX Transactions shall be immediately due and payable, by the Customer in the case of a negative amount, or by
the Bank, in the case of a positive amount, but without prejudice to the Bank’s rights of set-off. 

  

	4.	Set-off 

 The Bank shall be entitled at any time and without notice to
the Customer to set off any obligations of the Bank to the Customer in or towards satisfaction of any obligations of the Customer to the Bank or Standard Chartered Bank, whether the obligations of the Customer or the Bank or Standard Chartered Bank
are actual or contingent, primary or collateral, booked or payable at different branches (including overseas branches), or in different currencies. The Bank may effect any necessary conversions at the rate of exchange at which the Bank is able to
purchase the currency of the Customer’s obligations. 
 If the amount of an obligation is unascertained, the Bank may estimate that amount and
set-off in respect of the estimate, subject to a final settlement being made between the Customer and the Bank when the amount of the obligation is ascertained. 
  

	5.	Miscellaneous 

  

	 	(a)	The Customer may not assign or encumber any FX Transaction without the consent of the Bank. 

  

	 	(b)	Where the Customer consists of more than one person, each such person shall be jointly and severally liable under each FX Transaction. 

  

	6.	Governing Law and Jurisdiction 

 These Terms and all FX Transactions
shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Hong Kong and the Customer irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of Hong Kong.Credit Facilities Agreement dated March 21, 2006
