the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Deed shall operate to assign pursuant to clause 2.1 above or charge pursuant to clause 2.2 above any of the Chargor's rights under any

3.     PRESERVATION OF SECURITY

The
security constituted by this Deed is continuing and will extend to the ultimate balance of all the Secured Liabilities, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

security constituted by this Deed is in addition to and is not in anyway prejudiced by any other security now or subsequently held by the Security Parties or any of them for any Secured Liability. 

3.3   Waiver of defences  

The
obligations of the Chargor under this Deed will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under
this Deed or prejudice or diminish those obligations in whole or in part including (whether or not known to it or the Trustee, the Holders or any of the Security Parties):

time or waiver granted to, or composition with, the Chargor or other person;

unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under the Indenture or any other document (including any Funding Loan Agreement) or security, to the

	any
postponement, discharge, reduction, non-provability or other similar circumstance affecting any obligation of the Chargor under the Indenture or any other document
(including any Funding Loan Agreement) or security resulting from any insolvency, liquidation or dissolution proceedings or from any law, regulation or order so that each such obligation shall for the
purposes of the Chargor's obligations under this Deed be construed as if there were no such circumstance.

from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Trustee (or any other Security Party) or any Holder in respect of those amounts, or

in a suspense account any moneys received on an enforcement of this Deed without liability to pay interest on those moneys.

made or moneys received on account of the Chargor's liability under this Deed, unless the Trustee otherwise directs. The Chargor shall hold in trust for and forthwith pay or transfer to the Trustee
any payment or distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Clause 3.6 or as directed by the Trustee (acting in accordance with the provisions of any Sharing Agreement if
applicable). 

3.7   Reinstatement

	Where
any discharge (whether in respect of the obligations of the Chargor, this Deed, any other security (including any Permitted Subordinated Funding Loan Assignment Agreement) or
otherwise) is made in whole or in part or any arrangement is made on the faith of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored on winding up, dissolution,
liquidation, administration or other insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise without limitation, this security and the liability of the Chargor under this Deed shall continue as if the discharge
or arrangement had not occurred.
