The arbitration clause was performable despite the HKGCC ceasing to administer arbitrations; the plaintiff failed to show special circumstances to displace the usual rule that unsuccessful challenges to arbitration-related proceedings attract indemnity costs; indemnity costs were therefore awarded to the defendant but the quantum was reduced on proportionality grounds to HKD 230,000.
