11.1		After the occurrence of an Event of Default or if a petition or application is presented for the making of an administration order in relation to or for the judicial management of the Assignor or if any person who is entitled to do so gives written notice of its intention to appoint an administrator or judicial manager of the Assignor or files such a notice with the court, the Security Trustee may by writing (acting through an authorised officer of the Security Trustee) without prior notice to the Assignor appoint one or more persons to be receiver (“Receiver”) of the whole or any part of the Assigned Property (each such person being (a) entitled to act individually as well as jointly and (b) for all purposes deemed to be the agent of the Assignor).

		receiver set out in Schedule 1 to the Insolvency ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ (whether or not such person is an administrative receiver) and (c) (if such person is an administrative receiver) all the other powers exercisable by an administrative receiver in relation to the Assignor by virtue of the Insolvency ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇.
12		EFFECTIVENESS OF SECURITY
12.1		The security created by this Assignment and the Collateral Rights shall be cumulative, in addition to and independent of every other security which the Security Trustee may at any time hold for the Secured Obligations or any rights, powers and remedies provided by law. No prior security held by the Security Trustee over the whole or any part of the Assigned Property shall merge into the security constituted by this Assignment.
12.2		This Assignment shall remain in full force and effect as a continuing security for the Secured Obligations unless and until the Secured Obligations have been discharged in full and none of the Secured Parties is under any further actual or contingent obligation to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to the Assignor under any of the Finance Documents (unless discharged earlier by the Security Trustee).
12.3		No failure on the part of the Security Trustee to exercise, or delay on its part in exercising, any Collateral Right shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of a Collateral Right prevent any further or other exercise of that or any other Collateral Right.
12.4		If, at any time, any provision of this Assignment is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, the legality, validity or enforceability of (a) the remaining provisions of this Assignment and (b) such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.
12.5		None of the Security Trustee, its nominee(s) or any receiver appointed pursuant to this Assignment shall be liable by reason of (a) taking any action permitted by this Assignment, (b) any neglect or default in connection with the Assigned Property or (c) the taking possession or realisation of all or any part of the Assigned Property, except in the case of gross negligence or wilful default upon its part.
13		RELEASE OF SECURITY
13.1		Upon the Secured Obligations being irrevocably paid or discharged in full, and the Security Trustee and the Secured Parties having no further actual or contingent obligations to make advances or provide other financial accommodation to the Assignor or any other person under the Finance Documents, the Security Trustee shall, at the request and cost of the Assignor, (such cost, if any, to be reasonably incurred), promptly reassign to the Assignor the Assigned Property and deliver such written notices to any party on whom the Notice of Assignment is served as the Assignor may reasonably require without recourse to, and without any representations or warranties by, the Security Trustee or any of its nominee(s).
13.2		If the Security Trustee considers that any amount paid or credited to it is capable of being avoided or reduced by virtue of any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar

		laws, the liability of the Assignor under this Assignment and the security constituted by this Assignment shall continue and such amount shall not be considered to have been irrevocably paid.
13.3		Notwithstanding any discharge, release or settlement from time to time between any Secured Party and the Assignor, if any security, disposition or payment granted or made to any Secured Party in respect of the Secured Obligations by an Obligor or any other person is avoided or set aside or ordered to be surrendered, paid away, refunded or reduced by virtue of any provision, law or enactment relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, winding up, composition or arrangement for the time being in force or for any other reason, the Security Trustee shall, in its sole and absolute discretion, be entitled (to the extent possible under applicable law) hereafter to enforce this Assignment as if no such discharge, release or settlement had occurred.
14		SUBSEQUENT INTERESTS AND ACCOUNTS
		If the Security Trustee at any time receives notice of any subsequent mortgage, assignment, charge or other interest affecting all or any part of the Assigned Property, all payments made by the Assignor to the Security Trustee or any of the Secured Parties after that time shall be treated as having been credited to a new account of the Assignor and not as having been applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations as at the time when the Security Trustee received notice.
15		CURRENCY CONVERSION
		For the purpose of or pending the discharge of any of the Secured Obligations the Security Trustee may convert any money received, recovered or realised or subject to application by it under this Assignment from one currency to another, as the Security Trustee thinks fit, and any such conversion shall be effected at the Security Trustee’s spot rate of exchange for the time being for obtaining such other currency with the first currency.
16.		APPLICATION OF MONEYS
		All moneys received or recovered by the Security Trustee or any Receiver under this Assignment shall be applied in the order set out in clause 40.1 (Order of application) of the Facility Agreement.
17		ASSIGNMENT
17.1		Successors
		This Assignment shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of each party and its direct or subsequent legal successors, permitted transferees and assigns.
17.2		Security Trustee Successors
		This Assignment shall remain in effect despite any amalgamation or merger (however effected) relating to the Security Trustee; and references to the Security Trustee shall include any assignee or successor in title of the Security Trustee and any person who, under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or domicile, has assumed the rights and

		obligations of the Security Trustee under this Assignment or to which, under such laws, those rights and obligations have been transferred.
17.3		Disclosure
		The Security Trustee shall be entitled to disclose such information concerning the Assignor, this Assignment, and the FEEL Loan Agreement as the Security Trustee considers appropriate to any actual or proposed direct or indirect successor or to any person to whom information may be required to be disclosed by applicable law.
18		NOTICES
		Any communication to be made under or in connection with this Assignment shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Facility Agreement.
19		LAW
		This Assignment is governed by English law.
20		ENFORCEMENT
20.1		Jurisdiction of English Courts

	(b)		The parties agree that the English courts are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes between them and, accordingly, no party will argue to the contrary.
	(c)		This Clause 20 is for the benefit of the Security Trustee only. As a result and notwithstanding Clause 20.1 (a), it does not prevent the Security Trustee from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction.

20.2		Service of Process
		Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, the Assignor:
