jiabilities other than in connection with its acting as general partner of KUE and as described in this Memorandum. The day to day business of the General Partner will be generally be conducted by its directors, although certain matters require the approval of its shareholders pursuant to the Companies Law and the General Partner's Articles of Association. Under Cayman Islands law, a director of a Cayman Islands company is obliged to comply with a number of duties, breach of which may, in certain circumstances, result in personal liability on the part of the director. However, provided a director complies with the fiduciary duties and the requisite duties of care, diligence and skill, the fact that a decision turns out to be wrong, not beneficial, or causes loss, will not of itself necessarily establish personal liability. As a general rule, in the absence of a contractual arrangement to the contrary, the liability of a shareholder of a Cayman Islands exempted company which has been incorporated with limited liability is limited to the amount from time to time unpaid in respect of the par value of, together with the share premium payable on, the shares he holds; the company having a separate legal personality from that of its shareholders, and being separately liable for its own debts due to third parties, However, although there is no decided Cayman Islands authority on the issue, English common law authority (which would be regarded as persuasive, though technically not binding, in the courts of the Cayman Islands), supports the proposition that it in exceptional circumstances it is conceivable that the principle of the separate legal personality of a company could be ignored and the court will “pierce the corporate veil.” Examples might be a company acting as the agent or nominee of its shareholder, incorporation for an illegal or improper purpose, using a company or group of companies as a means of perpetrating a fraud, or using the separate personality of a company to circumvent a pre-existing obligation of its proprietor. 14.3.
