GUARANTEE

A Client’s obligations under the Agreement must be guaranteed:

A) where the Client (including a trustee) is a company, by each director of the Company; and
B) in any other circumstance, where Artha Finance Capital Limited determines, in its absolute discretion, that such guarantee is required.

The Guarantor acknowledges that Artha Finance Capital Limited is acting in reliance on the Guarantor incurring obligations and giving rights under this guarantee and indemnity.

The Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to Artha Finance Capital Limited compliance with their obligations in connection with the Agreement, including each obligation to pay money.

If the Client does not comply with those obligations on time and in accordance with the Agreement, then the Guarantor agrees to comply with those obligations on‐demand from Artha Finance Capital Limited. A demand may be made whether or not Artha Finance Capital Limited has made demand on the Client.

The Guarantor indemnifies Artha Finance Capital Limited against any liability or loss arising from, and any costs it incurs, if:

A) the Client does not, or is unable to, comply with an obligation the Client has (including an obligation to pay money) in connection with the Agreement; or
B) an obligation the Client would otherwise have under the Agreement (including an obligation to pay money) is found to be unenforceable; or
C) an obligation the Guarantor would otherwise have under clause 6 is found to be unenforceable; or
D) a representation or warranty by the Client in the Agreement is found to have been incorrect or misleading when made or taken to be made.

The Guarantor agrees to pay amounts due under clause 6 on demand from Artha Finance Capital Limited.

Artha Finance Capital Limited need not incur expense or make payment before enforcing this right of indemnity.

The guarantee in clause 6 is a continuing obligation despite any intervening payment, settlement or other thing and extends to all of the Client’s obligations in connection with the Agreement. The Guarantor waives any right it has of first requiring Artha Finance Capital Limited to commence proceedings or enforce any other rights against the Client or any other person before claiming from the Guarantor under this guarantee and indemnity.

The Guarantor acknowledges that, before entering into this guarantee and indemnity, it:

A) was given a copy of the Agreement (and all documents giving rise to your obligation in connection with the Agreement) and had full opportunity to consider their provisions; and
B) is responsible for making itself aware of the Client’s financial position and any other person who guarantees any of the Client’s obligations in connection with the Agreement.

The Guarantor agrees to make payments under this guarantee and indemnity:

A) in full without set‐off or counterclaim, and without any withholding or deduction unless prohibited by law; and
B) in the currency in which the payment is due, and otherwise in United States dollars, in immediately available funds.

If the Guarantor makes a payment that is subject to any withholding or deduction, the Guarantor agrees to pay Artha Finance Capital Limited such additional amount to ensure that the amount actually received by Artha Finance Capital Limited equals the full amount Artha Finance Capital Limited would have received had no withholding or deduction been made.

The rights are given to Artha Finance Capital Limited under this guarantee and indemnity, and the Guarantor’s liabilities under it, are not affected by any act or omission of us or any other person. For example, those rights and liabilities are not affected by any act or omission:

A) varying or replacing the Agreement;
B) releasing the Client or giving the Client a concession (such as more time to pay);
C) releasing any person who gives a guarantee or indemnity in connection with any of the Client’s obligations;
D) by which a person becomes a Guarantor after the date of this guarantee and indemnity;
E) by which the obligations of any person who guarantees any of the Client’s obligations (including obligations under this guarantee and indemnity) may become unenforceable;
F) by which any person who was intended to guarantee any of the obligations does not do so, or does not do so effectively;
G) by which a person who is co‐surety or co‐indemnifier is discharged under a Client Agreement or by operation of law;
H) a person dealing in any way with the Agreement or this guarantee and indemnity;
I) the death, mental or physical disability, or liquidation, administration or insolvency of any person including the Client or the Guarantor;
J) changes in the membership, name or business of any person;
K) acquiescence or delay by Artha Finance Capital Limited or any other person.

As long as any obligation is required, or maybe required, to be complied with in connection with this guarantee and indemnity, the Guarantor may not, without our consent:

A) reduce its liability under this guarantee and indemnity by claiming that the Client or any other person has a right of set‐off or counterclaim against Artha Finance Capital Limited; or
B) exercise any legal right to claim to be entitled to the benefit of another guarantee, indemnity, mortgage, charge, or other encumbrance given in connection with the Agreement or any other amount payable under this guarantee and indemnity; or
C) claim an amount from the Client, or another guarantor (including a person who has signed the Application Form as a “Guarantor”) under a right of indemnity; or
D) claim an amount in your liquidation, administration or insolvency or of another guarantor of any of your obligations (including a person who has signed the Application Form as a “Guarantor”).

CORPORATE ACTIONS

If a Corporate Action occurs, Artha Finance Capital Limited will reasonably determine what adjustment, if any, should be made to an Order to account for the dilutive or concentrative effect of any such event to preserve the economic equivalent of such Orders prior to the relevant event or to reflect the effect of such event on such Orders. Any such adjustments will be effective as of a date reasonably determined by us.

Artha Finance Capital Limited will not make dividend payments if:

A) a Client is the Long Party for a Share CFD which goes ex‐dividend, Artha Finance Capital Limited will credit the Client’s account with a cash adjustment to reflect the impact of the dividend on the Orders. The amount of the adjustment will depend on the amount of the gross dividend on the relevant number of Share CFDs on the ex‐dividend date.
B) If a Client is the Short Party for a Share CFD which goes ex‐dividend, Artha Finance Capital Limited will debit the declared cash dividend from the Client’s account. The amount of the adjustment will depend on the amount equal to the gross dividend on the relevant number of Share CFDs on the ex‐dividend date.

If an underlying asset to which an Open Position relates is subject to a Merger Event, Artha Finance Capital Limited reserves the right to close any or all affected Open Positions at any time during the Merger Event. Artha Finance Capital Limited will not close any Open Position that is subject to a Merger Event unless it has provided reasonable notice to the Client of a deadline for the Client to close their Open Position and the position remains open after this deadline.

Artha Finance Capital Limited reserves the right to adjust the opening price of any Financial Product that is subject to a Merger Event to reflect any cash portion of the offeror to amend the size to reflect any corresponding adjustment to the underlying asset caused by the Merger Event and/or to close the affected Open Positions and reopen a new position reflecting the new underlying asset that has been created. Any such adjustments will be effective as of a date reasonably determined by us.

If Artha Finance Capital Limited determines that no adjustment can be made under this clause which would produce a commercially reasonable result, Artha Finance Capital Limited may close your Open Position at the Close‐Out Value on a date reasonably determined by us.

Where the Client is the Long Party for a Share CFD in relation to a US stock or security, and the Share CFD goes ex‐ dividend, Artha Finance Capital Limited is required by US tax legislation to withhold 30% of the cash adjustment to reflect the impact of the declared dividend. Artha Finance Capital Limited will remit the amount withheld to its liquidity provider who will account the withheld amounts to the proper US authorities. Clients can view amounts withheld for US tax legislation purposes from their account.

TRADING SUSPENSION AND DISRUPTION

If, at any time:

A) trading in any Underlying Asset on any exchange is suspended or halted; or
B) trading is suspended or halted on any exchange which restricts trading with any relevant index so that Artha Finance Capital Limited is unable to determine the price of the Underlying Asset, then Artha Finance Capital Limited will take the price of the Underlying Asset as being the last traded price before the trading suspension or halt.

If the suspension or halt continue for 5 Business Days, Artha Finance Capital Limited at its discretion may close‐out your part or all of your Positions. When this happens, Artha Finance Capital Limited will decide the Close‐Out Date and the Close‐Out Value of your Contract in good faith (the Close‐Out Value will be the Underlying Asset price x the number of Contracts).

Artha Finance Capital Limited reserves the right at all times during any marketing limitations, suspension or disruption to adjust the price of any affected Underlying Asset.

Deposits or Margin Calls deposited by the Client will not fall due for repayment until the Client’s obligations under this Agreement and under or in respect of any other account between Artha Finance Capital Limited and the Client are satisfied in full. Until this time, Deposits or Margin Calls will not constitute a debt due from Artha Finance Capital Limited to the Client nor will the Client have any right to receive payment of these funds.

If the Agreement is terminated, the Client and Artha Finance Capital Limited agree that the claims against each other are finally discharged by means of close‐out netting. Artha Finance Capital Limited will determine the Close‐Out Values for each affected Order in its sole discretion. The final amount to be paid by one of the parties will be the difference between the payment obligations of the parties.

NEGATIVE BALANCE PROTECTION

The trading systems of Artha Finance Capital Limited are designed with safeguards to protect clients from encountering negative balances when trading under normal market conditions. All clients are provided with margin monitoring functionality. This functionality monitors the level of collateral should it drop below 100% of the required margin. In the event that it drops below 100%, the margin call mode will be triggered and maintained until the level of 50%. Should the margin level equal to, or drop below 50%, Artha Finance Capital Limited will initiate the closing of current open positions, starting from the most unprofitable taking into account trading hours of particular instruments traded by the client. Positions will be closed automatically at the current market price. The clients can set personal limits for risk management purposes.
Should a client incur a negative balance due to a “market gap”, the client should inform the Artha Finance Capital Limited support team. Artha Finance Capital Limited will evaluate the inquiry and at its discretion, may credit the client's account with the amount of the negative balance where the debit was during the course of normal trading activity.

where the negative balance is connected to or a result of, either direct or indirect, breach of any provision by the client of the Client Agreement of the company or from the breach of the market rules, including but not limited to the laws of the client’s country of origin, client’s country of residence or any country.
