inventory exercised.
2.19 The inventory is not removed by the Bank. Ultimately, the inventory at the public auction at
Renaissance sold. As of April 1, 2011 Renaissance operates a spa in the rented.
The Dispute.
3.1 Aqua Spa cs progresses convention that the Court, by judgment enforceable, to rule that;
- The lease at December 22, 2010 by unlawful Riffort has ended and as of that date is no longer in force;
- Riffort and Renaissance and the Bank have acted unlawfully against the applicants;
- Riffort and Renaissance, at least Riffort unjustified, are / is enriched.
- It also requests that Riffortcs Aqua Spa, Renaissance and the Bank are jointly and severally ordered to
pay damages to Aqua Spa cs amounting to USD 5,417,578.60 2,187,502.26 and NAF, plus statutory
interest, at least compensation further assessed by state and ordered Riffort, Renaissance and the Bank
of the proceedings.
3.2 At its claims against the Bank Aqua Spa cs at the following foundations. The Bank on December 21,
2010 the credit relationship with Aqua Spa immediately terminated without a notice period. The next
day, the Bank without prior consultations within the spa with a lot of force and the spa was closed.
While the Bank had no right to the spa to close. Moreover, this took place in the season for the spa. The
Bank did voogaande in the knowledge that Hassell abroad was to overnamekanditatenspeak. The Bank
also knew that doing Aqua Spa was a new manager to attract and financial projecities for the next six

7. months to prepare. Also knew that the Bank Aqua Spa in trouble was hit by Renaissance its commitment
to the spa with her guests to promote failed to meet. There are also indications that there is illustrated
by an approach between the Bank and Riffort / Renaissance. The furniture is indeed a low amount sold
to Renaissance, now a spa in the rented operates. The actions of the Bank is also unlawful to Lopez and
Hassell. The Bank has the aforementioned behaviors performed in the knowledge that Lopez and Hassell
personal guarantors voro the entire debt to the Bank of Aqua Spa. Despite the knowledge that Aqua Spa
cs was doing to attract new investors, the Bank has pulled the plug from Aqua Spa. It also provides a
direct tort against Lopez and Hassell on said still Aqua Spa cs
3.2 The Bank has in its defense the following. The Bank is authorized to cancel a credit relationship and
its pledge to exercise. In the present case there was any reason to. Aqua Spa lived a long time unable to
meet its obligations to the Bank. The loan was not repaid and any investor, but that was never concrete.
The information requested by the Bank on cash flow, were never provided. Hassell was also increasingly
inaccessible to the Bank. On 17 December 2010 the Bank with Lopez in Aruba. Lopez said that Hassell
was in Miami doing the activities of Aqua Spa to sell. This shot the Bank in the wrong way because they
would lose almost all of its securities would be. In this context, a role that the credit agreement pledging
of shares in HJC Realty SA was not implemented because Meru Real Estate Investments SA owns no
shares which turned out to be more. Aqua Spa was therefore less than pledged to which it was
connected. It then requested mortgage is not provided.
The Bank ultimately the credit relationship terminated by letter dated 21 December 2010 and the next
day her pledge exercised. The manager of the spa itself decided to clients to send home and close to the
spa. The goods were in agreement with the manager left in the spa.
Only after exercise of the lien is contacted Riffort and Renaissance. In order to set is therefore no
question. The Bank also drawing no interest, because they now face a claim of over Naf. 1.2 million
remains. It is also not unusual for a foreclosure auction property below market value are sold, so that no
indication for a one-two punch can be.
The Bank has been in all not acted unlawfully towards Aqua Spa. After the agreed securities were not
provided, there was insufficient information given, the loan and interest were not paid and Hassell was
doing the business of selling. The cancellation of the credit relationship and enforcement of the lien was
therefore not unlawful.
For a main condemnation of the Bank and Renaissance Riffort is no reason. Not shown is why the Bank
would be liable for damage caused by Riffort and Renaissance.
Hassell and Lopez argue that the Bank also acted wrongfully towards them.
The Bank disputes the lack of knowledge that Hassell and Lopez shareholder of Aqua Spa. Furthermore,
it follows from the case law that the shareholder does not claim accrues because the legal person to
claim damages must. Of acting contrary to the shareholder in respect of the private care required is no
question, so that the progress of Hassell and Lopez this rebound.

8. The Bank disputes the extent of the damage. The loss of profit is based on the business of Deloitte &
Touch, but this refers only expectations in clinical practice are never fulfilled. The alleged investments
are insufficiently substantiated. In addition, various items that are not staged investment, which double
booked or private property concerns.
The Bank is in no way enriched. The basis of the claim against the Bank flawed, still according to the
Bank.
Court verdict english page 2
3.4. The Bank relieszic h at offsetting its claim on Aqua Spa, Hassell and Lopez. This claim, the Bank
counterclaimed set. Due to the failure of Aqua Spa is the procedure counterclaim suspended.
3.5. At its claims against Riffort and Renaissance Aqua Spa cs at the following foundations.
Riffort and Renaissance oaths make significant investments Aqua Spa at the spa, in order to meet fire
standards of Renaissance. The architect of Renaissance Riffort and also served to authorize the
construction and the interior of the spa. The lease included therewith also the construction and
operation of the spa. The lease included therewith also the construction and operation of the spa.
Riffort and Renaissance also undertook towards Aqua Spa for the spa guests under the promotion.
Furthermore, there is a walkway from the Renaissance hotel will be constructed to provide direct access
to the spa for guests to realize. Riffort Renaissance and its commitments regarding promotion failed.
The walkway is eventually realized, but it did not go directly to the spa and was also closed by a gate
that only by an often absent guard Renaissance could be opened. As a result, the spa guests and
insufficient customer received and is in financial trouble, which ultimately leads to the cancellation of
the credit relationship with the bank led.
On December 22, 2010 Riffort the lease immediately opgezeged. Access to the Spa Aqua Spa staff was
denied by Riffort and Renaissance. The cancellation is not valid, because Aqua Spa betalingsverplichtigen
met her. Moreover, the consent of the Rental obtained.
Riffort Renaissance and have at least a malpractice tort committed against Aqua Spa by the agreements
on promotion and the walkway or insufficient to meet. Furthermore, the lease wrongfully terminated
immediately and were employees of the Aqua Spa Spa Access denied. All this is unlawful to Aqua Spa
and also towards Hassell and Lopez, now Riffort and Renaissance knew that they were personally
guaranteed the debt of Aqua Spa.
Riffort and Renaissance finally unjustly enriched by being a ready-made spa lap got that meets the
standards of Renaissance.De enrichment consists of the investments made in the leased said still Aqua
Spa cs
3.6. Riffort and Renaissance have their defense the following. Riffort has under the lease the spa
promoted, as they all resort facilities promotes. An appointment for specific and active marketing of the
spa by Riffort or Renaissance was no question that served Aqua Spa yourself.

9. Aqua Spa also shows that they are not self sufficient marketing has made towards hotel guests and local
customers or guests of other hotels.
The walkway between the Riffort and the Renaissance Hotel is realized. It is incorrect that the walkway
was closed, there is a guard that opens the door on presentation of a room pass.
Riffort the lease terminated because the Bank had exercised its lien and the spa had closed its doors.
Without Aqua Spa activities would not generate income and would therefore not be able to pay the
rent. Riffort told her other tenants obligation to avoid empty. Continuation of the activities of Aqua Spa
was given the poor financial poisitie, not imminent. The termination of the lease is not altogether
contrary to the reasonableness and fairness.
The Rent Control (hereafter; HCR) also does not apply to the rented space, because the rented part of a
hotel and hotels are not within the scope of the HCR fall. Renaissance and Riffort there was no need to
take into account the fact that Hassell and Lopez were responsible for their ability Aqua Spa. Breach of a
standard of care is therefore no question.
The business of Aqua Spa cs based on incorrect assumptions about the number of rooms, the sales, the
staff and the overall margin. The plan is thus from the outset been unrealistic. Wrongly believes Aqua
Spa cs any loss of profit to claim Renaissance and Riffort. If anything is to be recovered, it could never be
more than the turnover of residents of Renaissance would, therefore 30% of the revenues as estimated
in the business plan. Also, the calculation of the profit does not take into account the possibility that the
lease after five years would not be extended. Of unjust enrichment does not apply. Riffort by the
investment of Aqua Spa not enriched. Riffort has incurred costs to the rented Renaissance to rent.
Riffort has also not be able to charge higher rents in the Renaissance. As though there would be an
enrichment can not be equated with the investments of Aqua Spa, not to mention that it is unclear what
amount now invested in the spa, says Riffort.
Renaissance is not the owner of the rented. Renaissance should Riffort monthly rent to pay and should
also invest a substantial amount in order to use the leased property. Renaissance is not enriched, says
Renaissance.
3.7. The positions of the parties is below, where relevant, in more detail.
The assessment of the dispute.
In convention
The cancellation of the credit relationship and the exercise of the right of pledge by the Bank.
4.1 It is assumed that under the terms and conditions in the credit agreement, the credit relationship in
principle at any time by the Bank may be terminated. It is a bank are not free to do this at will. The
requirements of reasonableness and fairness may, because of the circumstances of the case it would
only be to terminate a valid termination of the contract leads, if a sufficiently weighty grounds for
termination exists. For a bank applies that they are related to the social function of banks has a special

10. duty of care, such as the Bank in its terms and conditions listed. The scope of that duty depends on the
circumstances of the case. A credit denunciation implies that at least they will have to comply with
requirements of proportionality and subsidiarity. Finally, apply to the court the decision of the bank in
principle restraint will serve to evaluate because he cannot take the place of banker.
4.2 It is clear that Aqua Spa at the time of termination has long been in default in respect of the
performance of its obligations under the credit agreement. The interest and repayments were in fact
not paid. It also found the agreed collateral only partly be provided. The pledged shares HJC had already
sold the pledge and the mortgage on the apartment in Jardines del Mar is never provided. It was
therefore the benevolence of the Bank due to Aqua Spa still got respite in order to find new investors
and its financial house in order to get. The various letters of the Bank in this context speak volumes.
Already on October 2, 2009, the former financier Orco Bank Aqua Spa in default, because the promised
an agreed security were not provided. Even after the assignment was providing the security off. On July
22, 2010, the Bank Aqua Spa in default in respect of the redemption - and interest obligations, providing
financial data and provide security. This will be further emphatically to the attention of Aqua Spa cc.s. by
letter of 6 October 2010, in which the Bank - among others - the following message Aqua Spa cs;
"We inform you That You remainning in default with the agreement with the Bank (...). You have
not made a concrete concrete counter offer to start paying on the account. The company Remains on
leveraged for the current level of operation and does require a major capital injection. (...) Please note
that the Bank does consider That You remainning in default and we request That your pay off the bank
in full by no later than November 15, 2010 Unless we can arrive at a new agreement by That Time All
which will entail but not limited to a new payment schedule and acceptable collateral. That we trust you
will take due note of this letter. '
4.3 Given this wording and the previous letters can be no doubt that the Bank in October 2010 by the
situation very seriously and her patience with Aqua Spa cs its end. Not available or has been shown
subsequently sufficient security has been provided an acceptable payments are followed or further
payment arrangements. Nor has shown that Aqua Spa, the Bank requested financial information (full)
has provided concrete or investors have been submitted. In that light, it is therefore by no means
inconceivable that the Bank credit relationship on December 21, 2010 with immediate effect has ended.
It had indeed already Aqua Spa for December 21, 2010 should be clear that the credit only hung by a
thread. Under the circumstances, the termination with immediate effect not conflict with requirements
of proportionality and subsidiarity. Of action by the Bank in violation of the reasonableness and fairness
or fulfill its duty of care is therefore no question. This applies less to the Bank now has a period of two
weeks and Hassell Lopez - in their position as guarantor - is permitted to assume the obligations of Aqua
Spa obligations. The termination of the credit relationship is under the aforementioned conditions not
unlawfully against Hassell and Lopez.
That the ultimate reason for the Bank to the credit relationship to say possibly a misunderstanding,
namely the communication Lopez that Hassell in Miami was to sell the company, while Lopez claims to

11. only have meant that Hassell with investors in conversation , does not affect the foregoing. The cause of
the termination of the credit relationship is the absence of principal and interest due, failure to provide
collateral and not (fully) for access to the financial data, on which defects Aqua Spa cs once and again
been highlighted by the Bank, but who nevertheless were not retrieved.
4.4. Nor is it illegal for the Bank immediately its lien on the inventory of spa exercised. The Bank
possessed because of insufficient collateral and therefore had the collateral that they are ad as soon as
possible to invoke. No rule is that preclude lien without prior notice to the debtor is exercised.
4.5. Aqua Spa cs accuses the Bank still they the spa on December 22, 2010 - season for the spa - has
closed, while they reached that conclusion was not entitled. This reproach bounce off on its own
assertion that Hassellcs Aqua Spa already on December 23, 2010 the Bank has understood that the
exercise of the pledge not to operate the spa in the way of having to stand. The fact that a continuation
of the spa has not subsequently take place because the staff of Aqua Spa access was denied by Riffort
and Renaissance, can not be invoked against the Bank.
4.6. Aqua Spa csaccuses the Bank finally that there would be one - two punch between the Bank on the
one hand and other hand Riffort and Renaissance. Aqua Spa cs see such evidence in the fact that the
contents of the spa for a song to Renaissance is sold and furthermore that Renaissance is now a spa in
the rented operates. Although the Court palpable note that Aqua Spa cs the current situation as such
experiences, the Court sees no evidence of foul play between the Bank and Riffort and Renaissance. Not
found what importance the Bank thereby would have, especially now retrospectively must be noted
that the Bank with a strong claim is left. That the Bank has sold furniture below market value, is certainly
not uncommon in foreclosure auctions. The fact that Renaissance is now a spa in the rented operates, is
independent of the Bank and its therefore cannot be invoked. The argument therefore fails.
4.7. Given the above, the claims of Aqua Spa cs to the Bank must be rejected.
Acting Riffort and Renaissance
4.8. Aqua Spa csRiffort accusation that they rent in conflict with the provisions of the Rent Control
(hereafter; HCR) has terminated. Article 17a paragraph 1 of the HCR provides that this regulation does
not apply to hotels. The question thus arises as to whether the spa part of the Renaissance Hotel. In this
regard, the following conditions are of importance. The leased property is situated in the Rif Fort.
Besides the Rif Fort is the Renaissance Hotel. The Rif Fort and the Renaissance hotel operated by
different companies (Riffort and Renaissance), but are - as explained put part of the same group of
companies. The Rif Fort and the Renaissance hotel linked by a walkway. The spa is mentioned on the
website of Renaissance hotel as the hotel's spa. The website of the spa Aqua Spa dubbed as
"Renaissance Aqua Spa, the official Spa of the hotel. '. On the signposting in the Rif Fort marked Aqua
Spa, is also the logo of the Renaissance Hotel.
The foregoing, all this in context and considered together, lead to the conclusion that the spa was part
of a publicly known as a unit complex, a resort. The spa must therefore be regarded as situated in a
hotel under (Article 17a of the now former HCR) Article 7a Article 7, 24 BW, BW 274. The fact that the

12. spa is accessible for non hotelguests, is of sufficient weight to that judgment to do. The conclusion is
that the UNHCR does not apply to the lease between Aqua Spa and Riffort, so the argument Aqua Spa cs
that the termination in violation of the UNHCR, should be rejected.
4.9. According Aqua Spa csRiffort and Renaissance briefly unlawfully against her acted promotion
agreements not to comply, the lease at the first opportunity to terminate and employees of Aqua Spa
access to the spa to deny, to eventually own the spa across take.
4.10. Riffort and Renaissance are part of the same group of companies. The Rif Fort, owned by Riffort, is
actually closely related to the Renaissance Hotel, owned by Renaissance. Indirectly director of both
companies is the spring, which according to the court documents also occurs for both companies. The
interconnectedness is further demonstrated by the fact that the lease is entered into between Riffort
and Aqua Spa, but (apparently by mistake) was signed by Renaissance. Also from the contents of the
lease follows that Riffort and Renaissance were closely involved, now it is stated that the spa must meet
the standards of fire Renaissance. Finally, reference is made to what has been considered as to whether
the Riffort established in the spa part of the Renaissance Hotel. Based on the foregoing, the science of
one company may reasonably be attributed
4.11. Both the lease as from the note of the former director of Renaissance and Renaissance that Riffort
to Aqua Spa cs have committed to the spa to promote. The intention was, according to the memo to the
spa an integrated part of Renaissance making. Part of these agreements was marketing and customer
service, which specifically in the memo indicated the initiatives in this area should be undertaken.
Furthermore, it was agreed that a bridge would be built, which is in line with the desired integration
between the spa and the hotel was. Renaissance and Riffort thus have an obligation to itself to the spa
to promote and integrate as part of the hotel. The theorem of Renaissance and Riffort that there was no
specific requirement promotion of the spa is therefore passed.
4.12. Now the spa is not in the hotel but in the Rif Fort is located, may in the area of promotion more of
Renaissance and Riffort be required than when the spa is located within the walls of the hotel was
located. The spa is in terms of visibility and accessibility indeed at a disadvantage compared to other
hotel facilities, which also plays a role that has the potential clients of a facility as a luxurious spa is not
too difficult to be made in order to reach the spa. The agreements therefore having to be seen in that
light. It may be that the promised spa menus in the rooms is not ultimately come due to fire standard
regulations and furthermore that there is little or no signs in the hotel were referring to the spa.
Moreover, the direct line from the spa rooms have not come, that the staff of Aqua Spa has received no
trainig of Renaissance, that access to the spa from the hotel by a gate was closed and Aqua Spa of the
fence, despite repeated request, no key was. Finally, it is undisputed that remained its own promotional
activities of Aqua Spa, as the sign at the elevator, on resistance of Riffort and Renaissance encountered.
4.13. Aqua Spa cs has repeatedly when Riffort Renaissance and brought to the attention that the
agreements on promotion were not met. The requests and proposals from Aqua Spa cs, however each
of the rejected and prior commitments have been put on hold or canceled. Illustrative in this respect is
the - uncontested - comment 'I will not lift a finger to help you' De Veer (indirectly) driver Riffort and

13. Renaissance, made by Hassell on 18 March and repeated on October 1, 2010. From this communication
Feather could infer that Riffort Aqua Spa and Renaissance promotion agreements would not comply. A
notice could therefore be omitted.
4.14. Based on the foregoing, it is concluded that Renaissance and Riffort to insufficient efforts to
promote the spa. That does not alter the fact that Aqua Spa cs possible self promotion could have done
more, as has been argued by Riffort and Renaissance.
ourt Verdict English page 3
4.15. Aqua Spa cs reproach Riffort Renaissance and subsequently hire in violation of the lease is
terminated and wrongly to employees of Aqua Spa access the spa is denied. In accordance with Article
31.1 of the lease is entitled Riffort let directly to say 'when attachment is a conservation reserve Thurs
or distress is leveled on the movable or immovable goods of the Tenant. This provision can only be
passed if this teopassing to standards of reasonableness and fairness is. According Riffort is the scope of
the provision that the tenant after exercising a lien may not be able to continue to conduct its business
and consequently its obligations under the lease will no longer be able to fulfill. The landlord does the
default of the tenant not to wait, but can let directly to say, according Riffort.
4.16. In the present case, the Bank exercised its lien on the Goods of the Company. This was not
necessary for the operation of the spa in the way that bears on December 23, 2010 Aqua Spa is also
confirmed by the Bank. The danger Aqua Spa no longer meet its obligations to Riffort could meet,
manifested therefore not immediately on December 22, 2010. This is especially true now undisputed
that Aqua Spa until that moment had no rent arrears and also the Christmas holidays at the door stood,
which is a busy time for the spa would be. It was therefore in the way of Riffort and Renaissance located
in conversation with Aqua Spa cs to the current situation in detail and any additional agreements
concerning the rent payments to make before the lease to an end and the staff at the spa access to the
spa to deny. This is particularly so Riffort and Renaissance there were aware of that Aqua Spa substantial
investments had been made to the spa to comply with fire standards of Renaissance. Riffort and
Renaissance also knew, or at least they should understand that these investments in December 2010 by
no means could be recouped. In addition to Riffort Renaissance and their obligation to the spa to
promote not least onvoeldoende been discharged, as considered above, so that they themselves had
affected the viability of Aqua Spa.
All these circumstances together make a profession of Riffort to Article 31.1 of the lease to standards of
reasonableness and fairness, so it must be held that the rent in violation of the lease is terminated and
wrongly spa access is prevented . The let directly to an end and the staff of Aqua Spa deny admission
have Riffort and Renaissance people have proved themselves the interests of Aqua Spa cs insufficient to
attract, which unlawful towards Aqua Spa csRiffort Renaissance and are thus liable for damage cs Aqua
Spa has suffered. The chances of a successful operation of the spa Aqua Spa cs by Riffort and
Renaissance deprived.

14. Unjust enrichment
4.17. With regard to the question whether a tenant is entitled to compensation under unjust
enrichment for changes he at the end of the lease has not removed, it should be provided that the
question only can be answered affirmatively if special circumstances warrant. In this case plays a role
that Aqua Spa spa in such a manner that the spa must design meets the standards of Renaissance. Aqua
Spa purpose was under lease obligation. Furthermore, Aqua Spa in the twenty months that the spa has
been open,cannot recover its investments, which at Riffort and Renaissance must have been clear.
Moreover, Riffort the rented now rents to Renaissance, also a spa in the rented operates.
4.18. All this may be true, but that does not mean that the lease provides that the tenant no
compensation is due for things that the tenant has applied and after termination of the lease has not
removed. Aqua Spa has no business removed. Riffort subsequently charges made by certain Aqua Spa
cases before removing and Renaissance, in turn, have to invest to the spa to her liking.
4.19. All things considered, the Court considers that special circumstances have proved insufficient to
give rise to the award of compensation to Aqua Spa on the grounds of unjust enrichment. It was on the
way from cs Aqua Spa located at the conclusion of the agreement a fee in respect of its investments to
stipulate, in case the contract (prematurely) would be terminated. By failing to do so, Aqua Spa cs the
risk that its investment would accrue to the landlord on termination of the lease. That situation has now
achieved. It was also on the way of Aqua Spa located to the year made changes to the property to
remove the termination of the lease. Not stated or shown that Riffort and Renaissance that has
prevented. Now Aqua Spa has failed cases brought by her to take away and also did not negotiate with
Riffort and Renaissance on a purchase price, it can notRiffort Renaissance and argue that the latter use
the remaining cases. The claim based on unjust enrichment will therefore be rejected.
