The secretary of the company confirms that, in accordance with all of the provisions (statutory

validly resolved on behalf of the Company that:
1. the Bank be appointed as bankers to the Company;
2. the account(s) be opened with the Bank;
3. operations on the account(s) to be instructed by writing, verbally or electronically
as selected in the application;

from the Company to the Bank accompanied by the
required personal information, declarations and specimen signatures of any additional Authorised
Signatories/Nominated Users) shall be authorised
to operate the account(s).
The Bank is entitled to rely on this resolution as being valid and effective until it receives
written notice from the Company of any resolution which
revokes or amends it. This mandate supersedes any other mandates signed on behalf of the
Company.
The Company agrees that it shall be liable to the Bank for all sums that become due to the
Bank in connection with the operation of the account(s).
Furthermore, the Company indemnifies the Bank for all losses, costs, charges, interest or
expenses incurred by the Bank as a consequence of instructions
received from, or purportedly from, the Company in accordance with resolution 4 above.
The Company agrees that any monies from time to time standing to its credit on any account
with the Bank may be applied by the Bank, without notice
to the Company, in or towards payment or satisfaction of any monies or liabilities now or
after the date of this mandate from time to time due, owing or
incurred by the Company to the Bank in whatsoever manner, whether those monies or liabilities
are actual, contingent, primary, collateral, several or
joint and whether presently payable or not.
For applicants whose registered office is in European Union this mandate shall be governed
by European Union Law. For all other applicants this mandate shall be governed by International Banking Law.
