(c)

whether any money remains due under the Finance Documents, the Subordinated Loan Agreement or the Deed of Payment; or

(d)

how any money paid to the Security Trustee or to the Receiver is to be applied.

procure the transfer of that Security Interest to itself; and/or

(c)

settle and pass the accounts of the prior mortgagee, chargee or encumbrancer; any accounts so settled and passed shall be conclusive and binding on the Chargor.

11.2

Removal

(iv)

the Security Trustee (or any person appointed by the Security Trustee as its agent or delegate) has been irrevocably appointed by the Assignor as its attorney to do all things which the Assignor could do in relation to the Assigned Insurances after the occurrence of an Event of Default, and you are requested to follow any instruction properly given to you by such attorney after such an Event of Default has occurred. In the event of a conflict in your instructions, those given by the Security Trustee (or any other attorney appointed by us under the Debenture) shall prevail;

(v)	any notice given by you under or in respect of the Insurance should be sent to the Security Trustee at the address given below (or to such other address as the Security Trustee may notify to you from time to time) with a copy to the Assignor;

(vi)	the Security Trustee has assumed no obligation to you under or in respect of the Insurance and the Assignor continues to be responsible to you for the performance of its obligations hereunder;

(vii)

these instructions may not be varied, except with the written consent of the Security Trustee.

Please acknowledge receipt of this Notice and the Debenture by (i) countersigning and returning to the Security Trustee a copy of this Notice and sending a duplicate of your acknowledgement to us at [Address], (ii) endorsing a copy of this notice of assignment on the above referred to policy issued by you, and (iii) confirming that you have not received notice of any other assignment of any interest in the Insurances.
