17.

SET-OFF

   

A Senior Creditor may set off any matured obligation owed to it by a Subordinated Creditor under this Agreement (to the extent beneficially owned by that Senior Creditor) against any matured obligation owed by that Senior Creditor to that Subordinated Creditor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Senior Creditor may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

18.

DEFAULT INTEREST


18.1

If a Subordinated Creditor fails to pay any amount payable by it under this Agreement to a Senior Creditor, it must, on demand by the Facility Agent, pay interest on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment at a rate equal to the Prime Rate plus 2.00 per cent.

   
18.2

For the purposes of this Clause, Prime Rate means, at any relevant time, the publicly quoted prime overdraft rate of interest of FirstRand Bank Limited (acting through its First National Bank division) at that time, being the nominal rate of interest per annum (compounded monthly in arrear) at which that bank lends money on unsecured overdraft to corporate borrowers (a certificate from any manager of that bank, whose appointment or authority need not be proved, as to the prime rate at any time and the usual way in which it is calculated and compounded at such time will be prima facie proof of that rate).

Interest (if unpaid) on an overdue amount will be compounded at the end of each calendar month, but will remain immediately due and payable.


19.

CALCULATIONS AND CERTIFICATES


19.1

Accounts

   

In any litigation or arbitration proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the entries made in the accounts maintained by a Senior Creditor, in the absence of manifest error, are prima facie proof of the matters to which they relate.

   
19.2

Certificates and determinations

   

A certification or determination by the Facility Agent of a rate or amount or a due date under this Agreement, signed by any officer, manager or employee of the Facility Agent (the appointment of which officer, manager or employee need not be proved), will be, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie proof of the matters to which it relates.

   
19.3

Accrual and day count convention

   

Any interest accruing under this Agreement accrues from day to day and is calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days or otherwise, depending on what the Facility Agent reasonably determines is market practice.
