GUARANTEE AND KEEP WELL AGREEMENT
This Guarantee and Keep Well Agreement (the “Agreement”) dated as of July 12, 2002 is entered into by and among Law Debenture Guarantee Limited (the “Guarantor”), LDC Trust Management Limited (the “Parent”), and Law Debenture Trust Company of New York (the “Trust Company”).
WHEREAS, the Guarantor and the Trust Company are wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Parent;
WHEREAS, in order to enable the Trust Company to conduct its corporate trust business and meet qualification requirements of documents pertaining to its acceptance of trust appointments, the Trust Company requires combined capital and surplus of U.S.$50,000,000; and
WHEREAS, the Parent and the Guarantor have determined that the execution and delivery by them of this Agreement is necessary in order for the Trust Company to conduct, promote and attain corporate trust business in the United States.
Now, THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises herein and intending to be legally bound by this Agreement, each of the Guarantor, the Trust Company and the Parent hereby agree as follows:
1.Stock Ownership.
During the term of this Agreement, the Parent will own, indirectly or directly, all of the capital stock of the Trust Company and the Guarantor; provided, however, that, upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to and the consent of the Trust Company (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), the Guarantor may sell, transfer or otherwise assign any such capital stock (or any interest therein) that it now owns or may hereafter acquire.
2.Covenants of the Parent.
It is understood and agreed by all parties hereto that the obligations under Section 3(a) are solely those of the Guarantor and no recourse can be had in connection therewith against the Parent.
| (a) | The Parent agrees that during the term of this Agreement, it shall not, without the prior written consent of the Trust Company and the Guarantor, unless it has already contributed the Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount (as defined below), cause the Guarantor to consolidate with or merge into any other corporation, or liquidate, wind up or dissolve the Guarantor (or otherwise cause the Guarantor to suffer any liquidation, winding up or dissolution), or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, to any person, except (i) the merger or consolidation of the Guarantor and any person, provided, that the surviving corporation is the Guarantor, and (ii) sales, transfers, leases and other dispositions of assets in the ordinary course of the Guarantor’s business, provided, that such sale, transfer, lease or other disposition of assets does not materially adversely affect the Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations hereunder. | ||
| (b) | If, during the term of this Agreement, the Guarantor is unable or refuses to perform its obligations under section 3(a) of this Agreement, the Parent may, at its option or at the request of the Trust Company, cause such obligations to be performed. During the term of this Agreement, the Parent agrees to monitor the financial condition and management of the Guarantor and the Trust Company. |

Table of Contents
3.The Guarantee.
| (a) | The Guarantor hereby guarantees a combined capital and surplus to the Trust Company in the amount of U.S.$50 million provided, however, that the maximum amount of capitalization shall not at any time exceed U.S.$50,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount”). Under no circumstances shall the Guarantor be required to pay or contribute any amounts in excess of the Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount hereunder. | ||
| (b) | If, during the term of this Agreement, the Trust Company is unable to make timely payment of any debt, liability or other obligation as the same shall become due (the “Guaranteed Obligations”), the Trust Company shall request from the Guarantor, and the Guarantor promptly shall provide the Trust Company, pursuant to its obligations under (a) above, such funds (in the form of cash or liquid assets in an amount sufficient to permit the Trust Company to make timely payment in respect of such debt, liability or other obligation) as equity, provided, however, that such Guaranteed Obligations shall not in the aggregate exceed the Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount. Any request for payment pursuant to this section shall specifically identify the debt, liability or other obligation in respect of which the Trust Company is unable to make timely payment and with respect to which the Trust Company seeks funds not to exceed the Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount. Each of the Trust Company and the Guarantor hereby acknowledges that any funds provided by the Guarantor pursuant thereto shall be used solely to make payment with respect to such identified Guaranteed Obligation and not for any other purposes. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement as provided hereunder or otherwise, this Agreement shall continue in effect or be reinstated with respect to the payment of a debt, liability or an obligation which is rescinded or must otherwise be returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization, dissolution or liquidation of the Trust Company, all as though such payment had not been made, provided, however, that such Guaranteed Obligations shall not in the aggregate exceed the Maximum Aggregate Capitalization Amount. | ||
| (c) | Any payments made hereunder by the Guarantor to the Trust Company within 30 days after the end of a quarterly period shall be deemed to have been made as of the end of such period. | ||
| (d) | This Agreement may be amended from time to time by mutual written consent of duly authorized officers of each of the Guarantor, the Parent and the Trust Company. | ||
| (e) | This Agreement may be terminated only upon written notification to the Trust Company by the Guarantor and the Parent, and in no event shall termination occur earlier than ninety days following such written notification. Unless so terminated, this Agreement shall remain in effect for the duration of the Trust Company’s conducting of trust business in the United States. | ||
| (f) | The Guarantor hereby waivers any failure or delay on the part of the Trust Company in asserting or enforcing any of its rights or in making any claims or demands hereunder. The Trust Company may at any time, without the Guarantor’s consent, without notice to the Guarantor and without affecting or impairing the Trust Company’s rights, or impairing the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, do any of the following with respect to any obligations: (a) grant renewals and extensions of time, for payment or otherwise, (b) accept new or additional documents, instruments or agreements relating to or in substitution of said obligation, or (c) otherwise handle the enforcement of its respective rights and remedies in accordance with its business judgment. |
