On an application under this section, the Court may make the order sought if it is satisfied that:


(a) the failure to register the collateral earlier:


(i) was accidental or due to inadvertence or some other sufficient cause; or

(ii) is not of such a nature as to prejudice the position of creditors or shareholders; or


(b) on other grounds, it is just and equitable to grant relief.

588FM(3)    
The Court may make the order sought on any terms and conditions that seem just and expedient to the Court.
