Dear Sir/Madam,
That on or about 10th May 2011 our client was lawfully and diligently walking
along the aforesaid road when your motor vehicle registration NO. KBM 000M
owned by you was so carelessly and/or recklessly driven by your
driver/agent/employee/servant that he caused the same to violently hit our
clients as a consequence whereof our client sustained serious injuries on his
face and other parts of the body.
Our further instructions are that the said accident occurred because your
driver/agent/employee/servant who was driving at a high speed swerved off
the road so as to avoid a head on collision with an oncoming vehicle and
thereby violently hitting our client by the side mirror.
Our firm instructions are therefore to demand, as we hereby do, that you
admit liability within FOURTEEN (14) days from the date hereof, failure to
which we shall institute legal proceedings against you, on behalf of our
client, without further notice to you in this regard and at your own peril as to
costs and other incidentals arising therefrom.
Yours faithfully,

6.14 As regards jurisdiction, an English court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being
brought elsewhere.
6.15 An English court may not give effect to a purported obligation to pay another party’s litigation costs
and may make its own order as to costs.

discretion and may not enforce the benefit of currency conversion and indemnity clauses.

set-off or counterclaim.

whether the Borrower [and any Initial Guarantor] is or will by reason of the execution of, or the
transactions contemplated by, the Agreement or any document referred to in the Agreement be in
breach of any of its obligations under any licence authorisation consent agreement or document.

Page 53 of 187

9.6 the choice of English law to govern the Agreement is a valid choice of law according to the laws of

9.7 Subject to timely registration where required, the [Security] creates a security interest over the
property assets and rights [OR: specific property] owned by [the Borrower] at the date of execution and
delivery of the Charge and expressed to be mortgaged or charged by it.
10. Reservations
Our reservations are as follows:
10.1 We express no opinion as to any law other than English law in force at and as interpreted at the
date of this opinion. We are not qualified to, and we do not, express an opinion on the laws of any other
jurisdiction. [In particular, we have not independently investigated the laws of [specify other relevant country
or state] for the purpose of this opinion or in connection with the Agreement or the transactions
contemplated by it and as to such matters we have relied exclusively on the opinion of [specify lawyers of
relevant jurisdiction].
10.3 The expression “valid and binding” in paragraph 4.2 above means that the obligations expressed to
be assumed under the Agreement are of a type which the English courts will treat as valid and binding. It
does not mean that these obligations will necessarily be enforced in all circumstances in accordance with
their terms, as to which reference is made to the other reservations expressed in this letter.
Page 54 of 187
10.4 We express no opinion as to whether any equitable remedies, and in particular an order for specific
performance or an injunction, would be available in respect of any of the obligations of the Borrower [ any
Initial Guarantor] as set out in the Agreement or whether any specific remedy, other than monetary
damages, would be available.

any laws from time to time in effect relating to bankruptcy insolvency liquidation administration

10.6 An English court would not give effect to obligations of the Borrower as set out in Clause [ ] of the
Agreement (Default Interest) providing for the payment by the Borrower of interest on overdue amounts if
the amount expressed as being payable were a penalty or in the nature of a penalty.
10.7 The undertaking and indemnity contained in Clause [ ] of the Agreement (Duties) may be void in
respect of stamp duties payable in the United Kingdom.
10.8 Clause [ ] of the Agreement (concerning partial payments) may not be effective to exclude any

10.9 We express no opinion with respect to the enforceability in all circumstances of Clause [ of the
Agreement (Sharing Payments).
10.10 Although Clause [ ] of the Agreement (Waivers amendments and consents) contemplates written
waivers or consents, an agreement may be varied amended or discharged by a further agreement or a
collateral agreement which may be effected by an oral agreement or a course of dealing.
10.11 Clause [ ] of the Agreement (Severance) may not be effective under English law.
10.12 Any determination or certificate made or given pursuant to any provision of the Agreement which
provides for such determination or certificate to be final conclusive or binding might be held under English
law not to be final conclusive or binding if such determination or certificate could be shown to have been
incorrect unreasonable or arbitrary or not to have been given or made in good faith.
10.13 Where any obligations are to be performed or observed in a jurisdiction outside England, they may
not be enforceable under English law if and to the extent that such performance or observance would be
unlawful unenforceable or contrary to public policy under the laws of such jurisdiction.
Page 55 of 187
10.14 As regards jurisdiction, an English court may stay proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being
brought elsewhere.
10.15 An English court may not give effect to a purported obligation to pay another party’s litigation costs
and may make its own order as to costs.
10.16 Whilst English courts would have power to give judgment expressed as an order to pay a currency
other than pounds sterling and are normally prepared to do so, they may decline to do so in their discretion
and may not enforce the benefit of currency conversion and indemnity clauses.
10.17 Claims may become barred under the Limitation Acts or may be or become subject to defences of
set-off or counterclaim.
10.18 The enforcement of the rights and obligations of the parties to the Agreement may be limited by the
provisions of English law concerning frustration of contracts.
10.19 Without limiting any other assumption or reservation made in this opinion, we have not investigated
whether the Borrower [and any Initial Guarantor] is or will by reason of the execution of, or the transactions
contemplated by, the Agreement or any document referred to in the Agreement be in breach of any of its
obligations under any licence authorisation consent agreement or document.
10.20 We express no opinion as to the tax treatment or consequences of the Agreement or the
transactions contemplated by it.
10.21 It is beyond the scope of this opinion to deal comprehensively with matters concerning property
assets and rights expressed to be subject to the Charge and priority nature registration and enforcement of
the Charge and its effectiveness in all circumstances. In particularly, we express no opinion in this letter as
to any of the following matters:
10.21.1 The existence of, or the title of [the Borrower] to, or the marketability or value of, any of the
property assets or rights expressed to be subject to the Charge;
10.21.2 the priority of any security or whether any property assets or rights expressed to be subject
to the Charge are or may become subject tot any equities rights or interests in favour of
any other person, in priority to the Charge or otherwise;
10.21.3 whether the Charge creates effective security in respect of any property assets or rights
outside Wales and England;
Page 56 of 187
10.21.4 whether the Charge creates effective security in respect of cash or credit balances of [the
Borrower] with [the Bank/any of the Banks];
10.21.5 the nature of the security created by the Charge, whether fixed or floating (and in particular
charges may only take effect as floating charges);
10.21.6 whether statutory preferences, fixed charges, liens, preferential creditors, title retention
arrangements or priorities arising by operation of law may effectively rank ahead of the
Charge or certain provisions of ot;
10.21.7 whether [the Borrower] is solvent immediately following creation of the Charge and
whether the Charge is or may at any time prove to have been created at a relevant time
prior to the presentation of a petition for an administration order in relation to, or the
commencement of the winding up of, [the Borrower] so that it may be void or voidable or
otherwise affected by any order of a court under any insolvency laws;
10.21.8 whether the floating charge comprised in the Charge is or may at any time prove to be
wholly or partly invalid as having been created at a relevant time prior to the presentation
of a petition for an administration order in relation to, or a commencement of the winding-
up of [the Borrower].
10.22 The Insolvency Act 1986 prohibits certain steps being taken except with the leave of the court (or,
where an administration order is in force, the administrator) against a company after the presentation of a
petition for an administration order. This prohibition continues if an administration order is made for so long
as it is in force. Prohibited steps include steps taken to enforce any security over the company’s property,
the commencement or continuation of proceedings or execution or other legal process or the levying of
distress against the company or its property and, where an administration order is in force, the appointment
of an administrative receiver.
10.23 Where the Charge is expressed to create security over debts owing from, or contractual or other
rights against, third parties, these are subject to the rights of the third parties concerned and may be invalid
if the terms of such debts or rights do not permit them to be charged or assigned.
10.24 A floating charge is more vulnerable than a fixed charge both to being set aside in a liquidation or
administration and to losing its priority to other rights and interests. A floating charge will take effect subject
to third party concerned (including rights of set-off) unless the third party concerned had express notice that
a term in the Charge prohibited the type of transaction to which that person is a party or that the floating
charge will also take effect subject to any execution or attachment completed before crystallization and to
any distress levied before crystallization. An administrator has wider powers to sell assets subject to a
floating charge than assets subject to a fixed charge.
Page 57 of 187
10.25 The enforcement of security interests is subject to certain rules of law; for example, a person who
holds a charge over property cannot sell the property to himself and owes a duty to take reasonable care to
realise the property for a proper price.
10.26 We express no opinion as to whether [the Borrower] is in compliance with United Kingdom or
European Union requirements concerning safety at work, protection of the environment or similar matters
or as to any potential liability of [the Bank/any of the Banks/ any security trustee for the Banks] as
mortgagees for any loss or damage resulting from or arising out of the failure by [the Borrower] to comply
with any such requirements.
This opinion is given to [name of Agent] for the sole benefit of itself and the Banks [ party to the
Agreement and for the purpose of the Agreement. [It is given on condition that it is governed by and
shall be construed in accordance with English law and that any action arising out of it is subject to the
exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.] It may not be delivered to nor relied upon by any other
person or for any other purpose nor is it to be quoted or referred to in any document or filed with any
person, except in any case with our prior written consent.

TO BE SERVED UPON:
Page 62 of 187
the Defendants address for service for the purposes of this suit is care
of KK & Company Advocates, P.O. Box ,,,,,,,,,, Nairobi.
a) The 2nd and 3rd Defendants and MMM met up with Mr. AAA, the then
Chairman of the Plaintiff bank for the purposes of discussing the 1 st
Defendant's intended custom with the Plaintiff Bank.
b) The 2nd and 3rd Defendants and NNNN appraised Mr. AAAA, the then
Chairman of the Plaintiff bank as to the banking needs of the 1 st
Defendant and further expressed the 1st Defendant's interest in
Page 63 of 187
opening a Current Account with the Plaintiff for purposes of
transacting banking business.
Page 64 of 187
e) Upon conclusion of the aforesaid discussions between Mr. Ajay Shah
representing the Plaintiff and the 2 nd and 3rd Defendants and NNNN
D.NNNN representing the 1st Defendant Company, the 1st
Defendant, on 28th October, 1996 was allocated Account Number
55719-01 after the 2nd and 3rd Defendants and NNNN D.NNNN
having appended their signatures at the bottom of the last (fourth)
page of the aforesaid General Terms and Conditions in acceptance
thereof. However, although the said General Terms and Conditions
were surrendered to the Plaintiff on 28 th October, 1996, the Plaintiff
inserted the 26th day of October, 1996 as the date of execution.
g) The 2nd and 3rd Defendants aver that they appended their signatures
at the bottom of the said Guarantee in the honest but mistaken
belief that they were appending their signatures at the requisite
places of the General Terms and Conditions.
Page 65 of 187
[j)] In view of the foregoing, the 2 nd and 3rd Defendants,
respectively, aver that the execution of the said gGuarantee
instead to of the General Terms and Conditions was not their
deed as the same was as consequence of a mutual mistake of
fact between Mr. Ajay Shah on behalf of the Plaintiff on the one
hand and the 2nd and 3rd Defendants and NNNN D.NNNN on behalf of
the 1st Defendant on the other hand. In any event, the
Defendants aver as follows:-
j)
[k)] i) On 19th November, 1996 the Plaintiff wrote to the 2 nd and
3rd Defendant and the said NNNN D.NNNN requesting them to
execute alleged Personal Guarantees which had never been
received by either the 2 nd or 3rd Defendant and/or the said
NNNN D.NNNN. The Plaintiff further sent reminders on 6 th
March 1997 and 7th April 1997 requstingrequesting them to
execute the same. At this point, the 3rd Defendant spoke to
the Plaintiff's then Manager Mr. Vinod Chaudry on telephone
and informed him that the alleged Personal Guarantees had
never been received by any of the Directors of the 1 st
Defendant. Accordingly, d.
. uring same telephone conversation, the said Mr. Vinod
Chaudry agreed to resend the said Personal Guarantees.
Page 66 of 187
iii) Thereafter, vide a letter dated , which he did vide the
Plaintiff's letter 21st August 1997. , the Plaintiff, pursuant to
the aforesaid telephone conversation, sent to the 3rd
Defendant, the The said Personal Guarantees which were
headed " Guarantee and Indemnity (Individual Guarantee)". In
the said letter, Tthe Plaintiff also requested the 1 st Defendant
to provide the following:
a Board resolution authorising the 1st Defendant to borrow
a letter of lien in the name of a third party
a duly executed Letter of Offer
duly executed Personal Guarantees of the directors of the
1st Defendant
duly executed Credit Agreement
iv) However, none of theThe Defendants never forwarded any of
the foregoing documents were forwarded to the Plaintiff nor did
they ever execute the said Personal Guarantee Forms
v) .
On 23rd December, 1996 the 1st Defendant forwarded to the Plaintiff a
cheque in the sum of Kshs. 14,000,000.00 as cash security as agreed during
the meeting between Mr. Ajay Shah representing the Plaintiff and the 2 nd and
3rd Defendants and Nello D. Francesco representing the 1 st Defendant.
[v)] n) Accordingly, iIn mid September 1997, the said Mr. Vinod
Chaudry called the 3rd Defendant requesting me her to forward
the duly executed documents as outlined in 5(j) (iii) (l)above.
However, as the said documents had not been executed, the
3rd Defendant informed the said Mr. Vinod Chaudry that she was
not in a position to forward the same. Further, during the said
telephone conversation, the 3 rd Defendant instructed the said Mr.
Vinod Chaudry to utilise the cash security by reflecting it in the
current account to bring down the then outstanding overdraft.
Page 67 of 187
v) vi) Subsequently, by a letter dated 28 th November, 1997 the
Plaintiff, once again, requested the 2nd and 3rd Defendants and
the said NNNN D.NNNN to forward the duly executed Ppersonal
gGuarantees together with other documents as aforesaid.
vii) The Defendants aver that to date, neither the duly executed
Guarantees nor the aforesaid documents have ever been
forwarded to the Plaintiff.
Accordingly, the Defendants shall at the hearing of this suit, crave the
leave of the Honourable Court to refer to and rely on the relevant
correspondence emanating from the Plaintiff and calling for the duly
executed Personal Guarantees from , inter alia, the 2nd and 3rd
Defendants, including its letters dated 25 th October, 1996, 6th March 1997,
7th April 1997, 21st August 1997 and 28th November, 1997 respectively, as
well as the original unexecuted Personal Guarantee forms forwarded
under cover of the aforesaid letter dated 21 st August, 1997.

3. In reply to paragraph 5 of the Re-Amended Defence the Plaintiff
avers that it is not a mandatory requirement in law or otherwise that
the guarantee executed by them should have been registered
and/or stamp duty paid in respect thereof and that the guarantee is
valid as against the Defendants and is evidence of a personal
covenant to repay on their part. The Defendants are therefore
bound to repay the monies so guaranteed.

Defence that the Plaintiff did not, without the Defendants’ consent
alter, vary or change the terms upon which the overdraft facility was
granted as alleged or at all.

8. Further, the Plaintiff avers that it is greatly prejudiced by the
allegations contained in paragraph 8 of the Re-Amended Defence as

absence of particulars of the alleged alterations. In this regard, the
Plaintiff reserves the right to amend its Reply to Re-Amended
Defence upon the supply of such particulars from the Defendants.

the Defendants primarily responsible for the liabilities of the Hirer.
Page 79 of 187
12. In particular, the Plaintiff denies that it was under any obligation,
express or implied, to attach and sell all the Hirer’s assets before it
requested payment of the shortfall, if any, from the Defendants, as
alleged in paragraph 10 of the Re-Amended Defence or at all.
14. The Plaintiff denies that there was any term in the guarantee of
the nature alleged in paragraph 12 of the Re-Amended Defence or
at all.
15. The Plaintiff avers in the alternative and strictly without prejudice
to paragraph 14 herein above that even if there was such a term,
which is denied, the Defendants’ liability under the guarantee was
limited to Kshs. 30,000,000.00 together with interest and other
charges in respect of the overdraft facility and they would therefore
not have been exposed to any risk or large debts other than the
debt due under the terms of the guarantee.
16. The Plaintiff denies that it acted fraudulently in selling the Hirer’s
motor vehicles or that it sold the motor vehicles as alleged in
paragraph 13 of the Re-Amended Defence. The Plaintiff denies each

1 Save in so far as the same consists of admissions, the Plaintiff joins issues with the
Defendant on matters raised in the various paragraphs of its Defence (“the
Defence”).
2 The Plaintiff admits the contents of paragraph 2 of the Defence in so far as the same is
merely descriptive of the parties.
3 The contents of paragraphs 3 of the Defence are denied in toto and the Defendant put to
strict proof thereof. In further response thereto, the Plaintiff reiterates the entire contents
of paragraph 5 of the Plaint.
4 In further answer to paragraph 3 and 4 of the Defence, the Plaintiff avers as follows:
a) The loan application dated 9th may 1994 was procured by the Defendant at its own
instance by false misrepresentation and undue influence.
b) The subsequent agreements were equally tainted with illegality in view of the
undue influence and misrepresentations of fact as particularised in paragraph 5 of
the Plaint.
Page 90 of 187
c) The loan application by the Plaintiff and the charging of L.R. Number
Dagoretti/,,,,,/,,,,, (“the suit property”) to secure the purported facility is invalid
and therefore not binding on the Plaintiff, by failing to comply with section 74 of
the Registered Land Act Cap. 300 of the laws of Kenya.
d) The said charge on the suit property was not attested by two witnesses as by law
required and the same is therefore invalid ab initio and cannot be enforced in law.
e) The lending by the Defendant to the Plaintiff was done outside the confines
of the law and relevant legal stipulations were thereby violated.
f) The charge was not voluntarily issued with the requisite knowledge
consent, and authority of the Plaintiff.
7. In answer to paragraph 5,6 and 7 of the Defence, the Plaintiff reiterates the entire contents of
paragraphs 5, 6 and 7 of the Plaint and puts the Defendant to strict proof thereof.
8. The Plaintiff denies having admitted liability in respect to the purported facility as alleged in
paragraph 8 of the Defence or at all and puts the Defendant to strict proof thereof.
DEFENCE TO COUNTER-CLAIM
9. The contents of paragraph 12 of the Defence are denied in toto and the Defendant put to strict
proof thereof. In further response thereto, the Plaintiff avers as follows:-
a) The purported lending having been done in blatant disregard of the Banking Act Cap.
488 of the Laws of Kenya and the Central Bank Act , the same has no legal basis and
all interests charged thereby are illegal and unenforceable at all.
b) In any event the Plaintiff has paid back over and above the monies that were allegedly
extended to him in disguise of a loan facility in the sum of Kshs 850,000.00.
Page 91 of 187
c) The alleged loan agreement and subsequent charge on the suit property are invalid as
they were procured under undue influence and misrepresentation of facts as
particularised in paragraph 5 of the Plaint and the same are therefore illegal and
unenforceable in law.
d) In view of the foregoing, the Plaintiff does not owe the Defendant Kshs 4,026,033 as
alleged or at all and puts the Defendant to strict proof thereof.
10. The Plaintiff therefore puts Defendant to strict proof of their Defence and Counter-
claim and prays that it be struck out with costs as it is hopelessly incompetent, and
judgement be entered against the Defendant as prayed for in the Plaint.

29. VERSUS
MEMORANDUM OF APPEAL
The Appellant above-named appeals to the Court of Appeal against the entire
Judgement above-mentioned on the following GROUNDS inter alia, namely:-
2. The Learned Judge erred in fact in making a finding that the Attorney General
did not exercise the power enshrined in section 26 of the constitution in a
quasi-judicial manner.
3. The Learned Judge erred in law and in fact in making a declaration that the
institution and maintenance of the Chief Magistrates Nairobi Criminal Case No.
,,,,, of 2000 against MMMM and PPP on 2 nd February 200….. upon the
complaint of NNN Kenya Limited was and is for the purposes of exerting
pressure on the applicants/ respondents to pay NN Kenya Limited a sum of
K.Shs 99,563,416/= which is disputed by them.
4. The Learned Judge erred in law and in fact in making a declaration that the
institution, prosecution and maintenance of the aforesaid criminal case is an
abuse of the criminal process of the Court and is arbitrary and a contravention
of the said applicants’ rights under section 82 of the constitution.
5. The Learned Judge erred in fact and in law by ordering that the proceedings in
the Chief Magistrate’s Case No. ,,,,,, of 2000 be permanently stayed and
7. The Learned Judge erred in fact by upholding Mrs. MM evidence that the
terms of payment between the parties was “Cash on delivery” despite the
evidence of Mr. KKK both oral and by way of affidavit that the terms of trade
was “Cash on order”.
8. Having accepted the evidence of Mrs MMM that she stopped the payments of
the subject cheques “believing that NN would come around to give her a full
account of money owed by both parties”, the Learned Judge erred in fact in
failing to find that the Respondents had in fact lifted products for the value of
the said cheques that she had stopped and that she had continued to do so
even after she knew that she had stopped payment of said cheques a fact
unknown to the 2nd Respondent/Applicant.
9. Having satisfied herself that indeed some form of dispute existed between the
parties and having had the benefit of listening to Mr. KKK evidence on behalf
10.The Learned Judge failed in the circumstances that the Appellant must have
relied on the said Cheques as value for money before it authorised the release
of its products to the Respondents from its depot.
11.The Learned Judge erred in fact in failing to find that if in fact the evidence of
Mrs MMM was to be believed i.e, that the terms of trade was “cash on order”,
then it was not necessary for her to leave blank signed cheques with the
Appellant as opposed to going with the said cheques to the Appellants offices
and writing out a cheque for the value of the products collected every day.
12.The Learned Judge erred in fact in failing to make a finding that if indeed the
MMM had no knowledge of the other three cheques which they claimed were
fraudulently filled in by the Appellant, they have never made a formal
complaint to the Police in respect of the alleged fraud.
13.By satisfying herself that the subject matters of the counter-claim filed by the
Appellant in the civil suit filed by the Respondents is the same which are used
in the charge sheet of the criminal proceedings, the Learned Judge failed to
appreciate the submissions made on behalf of the Appellant relating to the
sequence of events prior to the filing of the said suits and the subject Notice of
14.The Learned Judge failed to appreciate that the suit having been commenced
by the Respondents, the Appellant was compelled in the circumstances and
therefore obliged to file not only a Defence but also a Counterclaim within the
time prescribed by the civil procedure rules and to include the amounts of the
subject cheques for which by the Appellants had by their own admission,
collected products for the value thereof.
15.In the circumstances, the Learned Judge erred in fact in finding that the filing
of the Civil suits by the Respondents definitely hampered the Appellant from
realizing its claim from the Respondents suggesting that the Appellants
resorted to exerting pressure on the Respondents to pay the amounts due to it
by the Respondent.
16.That the Learned Judge erred in fact in failing to appreciate that the fact that
the Appellant had filed a counter-claim which included the value of the subject
five cheques did not in any way change the manner in which NN came to be
owed the amounts thereof by the Respondents.
17.Having made a finding that the Investigating Officer did not properly
investigate the case, the Learned Judge erred in Law in ordering that only NN
Kenya do pay the Applicants/Respondents costs when the original Application
18.In view of the circumstances set out herein above, the Learned Judge totally
misdirected herself in delivering Judgement in favour of the Respondents by
failing to consider and appreciate the evidence on record tendered on behalf
of the Appellant.
The Appeal be allowed and a declaration be made to the extent that the
Appellant properly made a complaint to the police on 7 th ,,,,,,,, 1999 believing that
an offence had been committed against it in the period between 12 TH and 15TH
September 199….
In the result the orders made by the Learned Judge be set aside.
The costs of the Appeal be granted to the Appellant against the Respondent.
