proceed to Completion so far as practicable having regard to the default(s) that have occurred; or

subject to Completion first having been deferred in accordance with clause 5.3(a), but not having occurred during the additional time provided for under such clause, due to a Party, as the defaulting party, failing to comply with its obligations specified in clause 5, to terminate this Deed, in which case clause 12 shall apply,

GBH has had an opportunity to discuss WT’s business, management, financial affairs and the terms and conditions of the offering of the WT Shares with WT’s management;

GBH understands that the WT Shares are “restricted securities” under applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, GBH must hold the WT Shares indefinitely unless they are registered with the SEC and qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. GBH further acknowledges that if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the WT Shares, and on requirements relating to WT which are outside of GBH’s control, and which WT is under no obligation and may not be able to satisfy;

GBH understands that the WT Shares are not transferable to any person other than an Affiliate (as that term is defined in the Investor Rights Agreement) of GBH, WT or an Affiliate of WT, that no public market now exists for the WT Shares, and that WT has made no assurances that a public market will ever exist for the WT Shares;

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH TRANSFER MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

any legend set forth in, or required by, the other Transaction Documents; and/or

any legend required by the securities laws of any state to the extent such laws are applicable to the WT Shares represented by the certificate, instrument, or book entry so legended;

GBH is an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act;

if GBH is not a United States person (as defined by Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), GBH hereby represents that it has satisfied itself as to the full observance of the laws of Jersey in connection with any invitation to subscribe for the WT Shares or any use of the Transaction Documents, including (i) the legal requirements within Jersey for the purchase of the WT Shares, (ii) any foreign exchange restrictions applicable to such purchase, (iii) any governmental or other consents that may need to be obtained, and (iv) the income tax and other tax consequences, if any, that may be relevant to the purchase, holding, redemption, sale, or transfer of the WT Shares. GBH’s subscription and payment for and continued beneficial ownership of the WT Shares will not violate any applicable securities or other laws of Jersey; and

GBH, nor any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, stockholders or partners has either directly or indirectly, including, through a broker or finder (a) engaged in any general solicitation, or (b) published any advertisement in connection with the offer and sale of the WT Shares.

FURTHER ASSURANCE

RIGHTS OF THIRD PARTIES

NO PARTNERSHIP OR AGENCY

Nothing in this Deed is intended to, or shall be deemed to, establish any partnership or joint venture between any of the Parties, constitute any Party the agent of another Party, or authorise any Party to make or enter into any commitments for or on behalf of any other Party.

This Deed and the documents referred to or incorporated in it constitute the entire agreement between the Parties relating to the subject matter of this Deed and supersede and extinguish any prior drafts, agreements, undertakings, representations, warranties and arrangements of any nature whatsoever, whether or not in writing, between the Parties in relation to the subject matter of this Deed. ETFS, WGC, GBH and GT acknowledge and agree that nothing in this clause 20.1 shall prejudice any of the rights or obligations under the GBSA Deed of Settlement.

Each of the Parties acknowledges and agrees that it has not entered into this Deed in reliance on any statement or representation of any person (whether a party to this Deed or not) other than as expressly incorporated in this Deed and the documents referred to or incorporated in this Deed.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the Parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right or remedy it may have to claim damages and/or to rescind this Deed by reason of any misrepresentation (other than a fraudulent misrepresentation) having been made to it by any person (whether a party to this Deed or not) and upon which it has relied in entering into this Deed.

Nothing contained in this Deed or in any other document referred to or incorporated in it shall be read or construed as excluding any liability or remedy as a result of fraud.

If any provision of this Deed is held to be invalid or unenforceable but would be valid or enforceable if some part of the provision were deleted or amended, the provision in question will apply with the minimum modifications necessary to make it valid and enforceable.
