Sunlec, as the successful party, is entitled to costs on a 2B basis and its disbursements up to the expiry of Electropar's first Calderbank offer (7 November 2007); Electropar is entitled to costs on a 2B basis and disbursements from 7 November 2007; the pre-trial offers exceeded or were close to the ultimate judgment and therefore must be taken into account under r48GA; an uplift for increased costs under r48C is not warranted because both parties behaved obstinately.
