To\n         the extent practicable, the Senior Creditors shall consult the Junior\n         Creditors and the Borrower before incurring any major expenditure.\n\n\n13.      INDEMNITY\n\n13.01    Junior Creditors' General Indemnity.

Each of the Junior Creditors\n         and the Borrower will do or permit to be done everything which the\n         Senior Creditors may from time to time require to be done for the\n         purpose of enforcing the Senior Creditors' rights hereunder and will\n         allow the names of the Junior Creditors and the Borrower (as the case\n         may be) to be used as and when required by the Senior Creditors for\n         that purpose.\n\n\n15.      SUSPENSE ACCOUNT\n\n         Any Senior Creditor may place and keep any monies received by virtue of\n         this Deed (whether before or after the insolvency, bankruptcy or\n         liquidation of any of the Junior Creditors or the Borrower) to the\n         credit of a suspense account for so long as the Senior Creditor may\n         think fit in order to preserve the rights of such Senior Creditor to\n         sue or prove for the whole amount of its claims against the Junior\n         Creditors, the Borrower or any other person.\n\n\n16.      WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY\n\n         No failure or delay by any Senior Creditor in exercising any right,\n         power or remedy hereunder shall impair such right, power or remedy or\n         operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise\n         of the same preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of\n         any other right, power or remedy.

This Deed may be enforced without\n         the Senior Creditors first having recourse to any other security or\n         rights or taking any other steps or proceedings against the Junior\n         Creditors, the Borrower or any other person or may be enforced for any\n         balance due after resorting to any one or more other means of obtaining\n         payment or discharge of the monies, obligations and liabilities hereby\n         secured.\n\n17.05    Discharges and Releases. Notwithstanding any discharge, release or\n         settlement from time to time between or among any or all the Senior\n         Creditors and the Junior Creditors or the Borrower, if any security,\n         disposition or payment granted or made to any Senior Creditor in\n         respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness by any Junior Creditor, the\n         Borrower or any other person is avoided or set aside or ordered to be\n         surrendered, paid away, refunded or reduced by virtue of any provision,\n         law or enactment relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,\n         winding-up, composition or arrangement for the time being in force or\n         for any other reason, each of the Senior Creditors shall be entitled\n         hereafter to enforce this Deed as if no such discharge, release or\n         settlement had occurred.\n\n17.06    Amendment.

Each of the Junior Creditors and the Borrower agrees that\n         any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Deed\n         may be brought in the courts of England and irrevocably submit to the\n         non-exclusive jurisdiction of such courts.\n\n20.03    Process Agent.

Nothing herein shall limit the right\n         of the Senior Creditors to commence any legal action against the Junior\n         Creditors or the Borrower and\/or their property in any other\n         jurisdiction or to serve process in any manner permitted by law, and\n         the initiation of proceedings in any jurisdiction shall not preclude\n         the initiation of proceedings in any other jurisdiction whether\n         concurrently or not.\n\n20.05    Waiver; Final Judgment Conclusive.
