SECTION 7

GUARANTEE

17. GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

17.1 Guarantee and indemnity

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally, jointly and severally, as a principal obligor and not merely as a surety and on the basis of discrete obligations enforceable against it:

17.1.1 guarantees to the Lender punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

17.1.2 undertakes with the Lender that whenever another Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, it shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

17.1.3 agrees with the Lender that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Lender immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by an Obligor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 17 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

17.2 Continuing guarantee

This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by the Obligors under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

17.3 Reinstatement

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by the Lender in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, business rescue proceedings, liquidation, winding-up or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred and the Lender shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that security or payment from each Obligor, as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

17.4 Waiver of defences

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 17 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or the Lender) including:

17.4.1 any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;

17.4.2 the release of any Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;


17.4.3 the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, execute, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non- observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

17.4.4 any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of any Obligor or any other person;

17.4.5 any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;

17.4.6 any unenforceability, illegality, invalidity, suspension or cancellation of any obligation of any person under this Agreement or any other Finance Document or any other document or security;

17.4.7 any insolvency, liquidation, winding-up, business rescue or similar proceedings (including, but not limited to, receipt of any distribution made under or in connection with those proceedings);

17.4.8 this Agreement or any other Finance Document not being executed by or binding against any Obligor or any other party; or

17.4.9 any other fact or circumstance arising on which an Obligor might otherwise be able to rely on a defence based on prejudice, waiver or estoppel.

17.5 Guarantor intent

Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 17.4 (Waiver of defences), each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

17.6 Immediate recourse

Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 17. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

17.7 Appropriations

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:


17.7.1 refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Lender (or agent or other person on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and an Obligor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

17.7.2 hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from each Guarantor or on account of that Guarantor's liability under this Clause 17.

17.8 Deferral of Guarantors' rights

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Lender otherwise directs, each Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 17:

17.8.1 to be indemnified by an Obligor;

17.8.2 to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of or provider of security for the Borrower's obligations under the Finance Documents;

17.8.3 to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation, cession of action or otherwise) of any rights of the Lender under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by the Lender;

17.8.4 to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring an Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which that Obligor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

17.8.5 to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or

17.8.6 to claim, rank, prove or vote as a creditor or shareholder of an Obligor in competition with the Lender.

If a Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights, it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Lender by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for, or otherwise for the benefit of, the Lender and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Lender or as the Lender may direct for application in accordance with Clause 24 (Payment Mechanics).

17.9 Additional security

This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by the Lender.

23.3.1 Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, the Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

(a) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;

(b) the financial condition of any Obligor;

(c) the performance and observance by an Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or

(d) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

23.3.2 Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender that it:

(a) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of the Obligors in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and

(b) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any commitment is in force.

23.3.3 Nothing in any Finance Document obliges the Existing Lender to:

(a) accept a re-Transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations Transferred under this Clause 23 (Changes to the Parties); or


(b) support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by an Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.

23.4 Procedure for Transfer

23.4.1 Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 23.2 (Conditions of transfer), a Transfer is effected in accordance with Clause 23.4.2 when the Lender and the New Lender execute a duly completed Transfer Certificate.

23.4.2 On the Transfer Date:

(a) the Transfer shall take effect under the Finance Documents so that the rights and/or obligations which are the subject of the Transfer shall be ceded and delegated by the Existing Lender to the New Lender (being the Transferred Rights and Obligations);

(b) the Borrower shall perform its obligations and exercise its rights in relation to the Transferred Rights and Obligations in favour of or against the New Lender, as the case may be; and

(c) the New Lender shall become a Party as a Lender.

23.5 Costs resulting from a change of Lender

If:

23.5.1 the Lender Transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents; and

23.5.2 as a result of circumstances existing at the date the Transfer occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a Tax Payment (as defined in Clause 12) or pay any Increased Cost (as defined in Clause 13),

then, unless the Transfer is made by the Lender in order to mitigate any circumstances giving rise to the Tax Payment, Increased Cost or a right to be prepaid and/or cancelled by reason of illegality, the Obligor need only pay that Tax Payment or Increased Cost to the same extent that it would have been obliged to if the Transfer had not occurred.

23.6 Copy of Transfer Certificate to Borrower

The Existing Lender shall send to the Borrower a copy of each Transfer Certificate executed by it and the New Lender in accordance with Clause 23.4 (Procedure for Transfer) as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed any such Transfer Certificate.

23.7 No cession and delegation by the Obligors

No Obligor may cede and/or delegate or otherwise transfer any or all of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement and/or under any other Finance Document.

Dear Sirs,

CASH CONNECT CAPITAL PROPRIETARY LIMITED
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY AGREEMENT, DATED [●] 2022
(the Agreement)

We understand that you are considering [acquiring]5 an interest in the Facility. In consideration of us agreeing to make available to you certain information, by your signature of a copy of this letter you agree as follows:

1. Confidentiality Undertaking

You undertake:

1.1 to keep all Confidential Information confidential and not to disclose it to anyone, save to the extent permitted by paragraph 2 and to ensure that all Confidential Information is protected with security measures and a degree of care that would apply to your own confidential information;

1.2 to keep confidential and not disclose to anyone except as provided for by paragraph 2 the fact that the Confidential Information has been made available or that discussions or negotiations are taking place or have taken place between us in connection with the Facility;

1.3 to use the Confidential Information only for the purpose of considering and evaluating whether to enter into the Finance Documents (the Permitted Purpose); and

1.4 not to make any enquiries, relating directly or indirectly to the Finance Documents from the Borrower or any of its officers, directors, employees or professional advisors.

2. Permitted Disclosure

We agree that you may disclose such Confidential Information and such of those matters referred to in paragraph 1.2 as you shall consider appropriate:

2.1 to your Affiliates, officers, directors, employees and professional advisers to the extent necessary for the Permitted Purpose and to any person to whom the Confidential Information is to be given pursuant to this paragraph 2.1 is informed in writing of its confidential nature and that some or all of such Confidential Information may be price-sensitive information, except that there shall be no such requirement to so inform if the recipient is subject to professional obligations to maintain the confidentiality of the information or is otherwise bound by requirements of confidentiality in relation to the Confidential Information;


5 Delete if addressee is acting as broker or agent.


2.2 to any person to whom information is required or requested to be disclosed by any governmental, banking, taxation or other regulatory authority or similar body, the rules of any relevant stock exchange or pursuant to any applicable law or regulation; and

2.3 with the prior written consent of us and the Borrower.

3. Notification of Disclosure

You agree (to the extent permitted by law and regulation) to inform us:

3.1 of the circumstances of any disclosure of Confidential Information made pursuant to paragraph 2.2 except where such disclosure is made to any of the persons referred to in that paragraph during the ordinary course of its supervisory or regulatory function; and

3.2 upon becoming aware that Confidential Information has been disclosed in breach of this letter.

4. Return of Copies

If you do not participate in the Facility and we so request in writing, you shall return all Confidential Information supplied to you by us and destroy or permanently erase (to the extent technically practicable) all copies of Confidential Information made by you and use your reasonable endeavours to ensure that anyone to whom you have supplied any Confidential Information destroys or permanently erases (to the extent technically practicable) such Confidential Information and any copies made by them, in each case save to the extent that you or the recipients are required to retain any such Confidential Information by any applicable law, rule or regulation or by any competent judicial, governmental, supervisory or regulatory body or in accordance with reasonable internal policy, or where the Confidential Information has been disclosed under paragraph 2.2.

5. Continuing Obligations

The obligations in this letter are continuing and, in particular, shall survive the termination of any discussions or negotiations between you and us. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, the obligations of this letter shall cease on the earlier of (a) the date on which you become a party to, or otherwise acquire (by assignment or sub-participation) an interest, direct or otherwise in the Agreement; (b) 12 months after you have (i) returned all Confidential Information supplied to you by us and (ii) destroyed or permanently erased all copies of the Confidential Information made by you (other than any such Confidential Information or copies which have been disclosed under paragraph 2 (other than sub-paragraph 2.1) or which, pursuant to paragraph 4, are not required to be returned or destroyed); or (c) 24 months after the date of this letter.

6. No Representation; Consequences of Breach, etc.

6.2 we or the Borrower may be irreparably harmed by the breach of the terms of this letter and damages may not be an adequate remedy; each Relevant Person or the Borrower may be granted an interdict or specific performance for any threatened or actual breach of the provisions of this letter by you.

7. Entire Agreement; No Waiver; Amendments, etc.

7.1 This letter constitutes the entire agreement between us in relation to your obligations regarding Confidential Information and supersedes any previous agreement, whether express or implied, regarding Confidential Information.

7.2 No party to this letter shall be bound by any express or implied term, representation, warranty, promise of the like, not recorded in this letter.

8. Inside Information

You acknowledge that some or all of the Confidential Information is or may be price-sensitive information and that the use of such information may be regulated or prohibited by applicable legislation including securities law relating to insider dealing and market abuse and you undertake not to use any Confidential Information for any unlawful purpose.
