their previous Repurchase Instructions so that their Bonds are no

right to increase the Repurchase Total by notice to the Bondholders
prior to the Settlement Date.
The Company will issue a notice to Bondholders through the
Clearing Systems by no later than 14 July 2023 with further details

security over certain intellectual property and other intangible
rights held by the Chargor (the "Secured Assets") for the benefit
of the Trustee (acting as security trustee) on behalf of the
Bondholders. The security created pursuant to the Security Deed is
enforceable if a notice of acceleration in respect of the Bonds is
given by the Trustee to the Company following the occurrence of an
Event of Default that occurs after the date of the Security Deed
and is continuing.
The Company or the Chargor may dispose of all or any part of the
Secured Assets (and release the security created pursuant to the
Security Deed accordingly) without the consent of the Trustee,
Security Trustee or Bondholders provided that at least 50% of the
net proceeds of any such disposal are used to repay the Bonds
