(vi) consider and if agreed, change the date of application made to the Court for an order under section 411(4)(b) of the Corporations Act approving the Scheme or adjourning that application (as applicable) to another date agreed to in writing by Papillon and B2Gold (being a date no later than five Business Days before the Sunset Date).
(b) If Papillon and B2Gold are unable to reach agreement under clause 3.8(a) within the Required Consultation Period, either Papillon or B2Gold may, provided that Condition Precedent is for the benefit of that party, terminate this agreement by notice in writing to the other without incurring any liability to the other party because of that termination (other than under clause 11 if applicable), unless the relevant occurrence or the breach or non-non- fulfilment of the Condition Precedent arises out of a breach of clauses 3.3 or 3.4 by the terminating party.
(c) Subject to any rights or obligations arising under or pursuant to clauses that are expressed to survive termination (including by virtue of clause 8.4), on termination of this agreement, no party shall have any rights against or obligations to any other party under this agreement except for those rights and obligations which accrued prior to termination.
(d) If the Condition Precedent in clause 3.1(b)(i) is not satisfied only because of a failure to obtain the majority required by section 411(4)(a)(ii)(A) of the Corporations Act, then either party may by written notice within 3 Business Days after the date of the conclusion of the Scheme Meeting require the approval of the Court to be sought, pursuant to the Court’s discretion in that section, provided the party has in good faith formed the view that the prospect of the Court exercising its discretion in that way is reasonable.
(e) If the Court refuses to make an order approving the Scheme satisfying clause 3.1(f), at B2Gold’s request Papillon must appeal the Court’s decision to the fullest extent possible (except to the extent that the parties agree otherwise, or an independent Senior Counsel indicates that, in his or her view, an appeal would have negligible prospects of success before the Sunset Date). Papillon may bring an appeal even if not requested by B2Gold. If any such appeal is undertaken at the request of B2Gold, B2Gold will bear Papillon’s costs of the appeal (including costs of the independent Senior Counsel) unless the parties otherwise agree. If any such appeal is undertaken by Papillon, without the prior request from B2Gold, Papillon will bear B2Gold’s costs of the appeal unless the parties otherwise agree.
