	iii.
	the increased Commitments will be assumed by one or more Lenders or other banks or financial institutions (each an "Increase Lender") selected by the Borrower (each of which shall not be a member of the Group) and each of which confirms in writing (whether in the relevant Increase Confirmation or otherwise) its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of a Lender corresponding to that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume, as if it had been an Original Lender;



 18








		
	iv.
	the Borrower and any Increase Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another as the Borrower and the Increase Lender would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Lender been an Original Lender;


		
	v.
	each Increase Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender" and any Increase Lender and each of the other Finance Parties shall assume obligations towards one another and acquire rights against one another as that Increase Lender and those Finance Parties would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Lender been an Original Lender;


		
	vi.
	the Commitments of the other Lenders shall continue in full force and effect; and


		
	vii.
	any increase in the Commitments relating to the Facility shall take effect on the date specified by the Borrower in the notice referred to above or any later date on which the conditions set out in Clause 2.2.2 below are satisfied.

	ii.
	in relation to an Increase Lender which is not a Lender immediately prior to the relevant increase the Agent being satisfied that it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Lender. The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Increase Lender upon being so satisfied.

	e.
	The Increase Lender shall, on the date upon which the increase takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee in an amount equal to the fee which would be payable under Clause 23.3 (Assignment or transfer fee) if the increase was a transfer pursuant to Clause 23.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment) and if the Increase Lender was a New Lender.

	Finance Parties' rights and obligations


		
	a.
	The obligations of each Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several (conjointes et non solidaires). Failure by a Finance Party to perform its obligations under the Finance Documents does not affect the obligations of any other Party under the Finance Documents. No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.

For the avoidance of doubt, any portion of such Acquisition Repayment Amount financed by way of cash of the Group or equity shall not entail the cancellation of a corresponding amount of the Total Commitments.

 34








		
	d.
	A payment shall not be increased under paragraph 13.2.3 above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by France, if on the date on which the payment falls due:

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or

 35








		
	ii.
	to the extent a loss, liability or cost:


		
	1.
	is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up);


		
	2.
	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in paragraph 13.2.4 of Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) applied;

	b.
	that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,

	i.
	not a Qualifying Lender;


		
	ii.
	a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or


		
	iii.
	a Treaty Lender.


If a New Lender or Increase Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 13.5 then such New Lender or Increase Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by the Borrower) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Borrower).

	a.
	All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph 13.7.2 below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).


		
	b.
	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "Supplier") to any other Finance Party (the "Recipient") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "Relevant Party") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):


		
	i.
	(where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (A) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and


		
	ii.
	(where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.


		
	c.
	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.


		
	d.
	In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

	not a FATCA Exempt Party;

	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA; and



 37








		
	iii.
	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.


		
	b.
	If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph 13.8.1(A) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.


		
	c.
	Paragraph 13.8.1 above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and paragraph 13.8.1(C) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:


		
	i.
	any law or regulation;


		
	ii.
	any fiduciary duty; or


		
	iii.
	any duty of confidentiality.


		
	d.
	If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph 13.8.1(A)(1) or 13.8.1(A)(2) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph 13.8.3 above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

	2.
	any withholding statement or other document, authorisation or waiver as the Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation.


		
	f.
	The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph 13.8.5 above to the relevant Borrower.


		
	g.
	If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Agent by a Lender pursuant to paragraph 13.8.5 above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Agent). The Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the relevant Borrower.

SECTION 8
CHANGES TO PARTIES


		
	23.
	CHANGES TO THE LENDERS


		
	23.1
	Assignments and transfers by the Lenders


		
	a.
	Subject to this Clause 23, a Lender (the "Existing Lender") may:


		
	i.
	assign any of its rights; or


		
	ii.
	transfer any of its rights (including such as relate to that Lender's participation in each Loan) and obligations,


to another bank or financial institution (the "New Lender").
		
	b.
	The consent of the Finance Parties is hereby given to a transfer by an Existing Lender to a New Lender.


		
	23.2
	Conditions of assignment or transfer


		
	a.
	The consent of the Borrower is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, provided that:


		
	i.
	in the case of an assignment, no consent is required if the assignment is:


		
	1.
	to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or


		
	2.
	made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing, and


		
	ii.
	the Borrower hereby consents to a transfer:


		
	1.
	to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or


		
	2.
	made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing.


Notwithstanding the above, no assignment, transfer, sub-participation or subcontracting in relation to a Utilisation and/or Commitment may be effected to a New Lender incorporated or acting through a Facility Office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction without the prior consent of the Borrower, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.
		
	b.
	The consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time.


		
	c.
	The consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be withheld solely because the assignment or transfer may result in an increase to the Mandatory Cost.


		
	d.
	A transfer or an assignment will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 23.5 (Procedure for transfer or assignment) is complied with.


		
	e.
	If:


		
	i.
	a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its Facility Office; and


		
	ii.
	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, the Borrower would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 13 (Tax Gross up and Indemnities) or Clause 14 (Increased Costs),


then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. This Clause 23.2.5 shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facility.

 58








		
	f.
	Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Agreement, confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the transfer or assignment becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender.


		
	23.3
	Assignment or transfer fee


The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of 2.500 EUR.
		
	23.4
	Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders


		
	a.
	Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:


		
	i.
	the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;


		
	ii.
	the financial condition of the Borrower;


		
	iii.
	the performance and observance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or


		
	iv.
	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,


and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.
		
	b.
	Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:


		
	i.
	has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and


		
	ii.
	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.


		
	c.
	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to:


		
	i.
	accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 23; or


		
	ii.
	support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.


		
	23.5
	Procedure for Transfer or Assignment


		
	a.
	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 23.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer of rights and obligations or an assignment of rights is effected in accordance with Clause 23.5.3 below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, subject to Clause 23.5.2 below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Agreement.



 59








		
	b.
	The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.


		
	c.
	By virtue of the execution of a Transfer Agreement, subject to Clause 23.8 (Pro rata interest settlement), as from the Transfer Date:


		
	i.
	to the extent that in the Transfer Agreement the Existing Lender seeks to transfer its rights and its obligations under the Finance Documents, the Existing Lender shall be discharged to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement from further obligations towards the Borrower and the other Finance Parties under the Finance Documents;


		
	ii.
	the rights and/or obligations of the Existing Lender with respect to the Borrower shall be transferred to the New Lender, to the extent provided for in the Transfer Agreement;


		
	iii.
	the Agent, the Arrangers, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have had had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent, the Arranger and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and


		
	iv.
	the New Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender".


		
	23.6
	Copy of Transfer Agreement or Increase Confirmation to Borrower


The Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Certificate, an Assignment Agreement or an Increase Confirmation, send to the Borrower a copy of that Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation.
		
	23.7
	Security over Lenders' rights


		
	a.
	In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 23, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from the Borrower, at any time assign, charge, pledge or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:


		
	i.
	any assignment, charge, pledge or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank) including, without limitation, any assignment of rights to a special purpose vehicle where Security over securities issued by such special purpose vehicle is to be created in favour of a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank); and


		
	ii.
	in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any assignment, charge, pledge or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities,


except that no such assignment, charge, pledge or Security shall:
		
	1.
	release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant assignment, charge, pledge or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or


		
	2.
	require any payments to be made by the Borrower other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.



 60








		
	b.
	The limitations on assignments or transfers by a Lender set out in any Finance Document, in particular in Clause 23.1 (Assignments and transfers by the Lenders), Clause 23.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) and Clause 23.3 (Assignment or transfer fee), and the provisions set out in Clause 35 (Confidential Information) shall not apply to the creation of Security pursuant to paragraph 23.7.1 above.


		
	c.
	The limitations and provisions referred to in paragraph 23.7.2 above shall further not apply to any assignment or transfer of rights under the Finance Documents or of the securities issued by the special purpose vehicle, made by a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank) to a third party in connection with the enforcement of Security created pursuant to paragraph 23.7.1 above.


		
	d.
	Any Lender may disclose such Confidential Information as that Lender shall consider appropriate to a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank) to (or through) whom it creates Security pursuant to paragraph 23.7.1 above, and any federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank) may disclose such Confidential Information to a third party to whom it assigns or transfers (or may potentially assign or transfer) rights under the Finance Documents or the securities issued by the special purpose vehicle in connection with the enforcement of such Security.


		
	23.8
	Pro rata interest settlement


		
	a.
	If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a "pro rata basis" to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer or assignment pursuant to Clause 23.5 (Procedure for Transfer or Assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):


		
	i.
	any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date ("Accrued Amounts") and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and


		
	ii.
	the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that, for the avoidance of doubt:


		
	1.
	when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and


		
	2.
	the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 23.8, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.


		
	b.
	In this Clause 23.8 references to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.




		
	24.
	CHANGES TO THE BORROWER


		
	24.1

	assume that:


		
	1.
	any instructions received by it from the Majority Lenders, any Lenders or any group of Lenders are duly given in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents; and

	3.
	as sufficient evidence that that is the case and, in the case of paragraph 25.7.1(C)(1) above, may assume the truth and accuracy of that certificate.


		
	b.
	The Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as agent for the Lenders) that:


		
	i.
	no Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of a Default arising under Clause 22.1 (Non-payment); and

 64








		
	j.
	Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Neither the Agent nor any of the Arrangers or the Coordinator and Documentation Agent is responsible or liable for:
		
	a.
	the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by the Agent, the Arrangers, the Coordinator and Documentation Agent, the Borrower or any other person in or in connection with any Finance Document or the transactions contemplated in the Finance Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document;

 65








		
	iii.
	without prejudice to the generality of paragraphs 25.10.1(A) and 25.10.1(B) above, any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever (including, without limitation, for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) arising as a result of:


		
	1.
	any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control; or

	d.
	Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Agent or the Arrangers to carry out:

	Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the Agent's liability, any liability of the Agent arising under or in connection with any Finance Document shall be limited to the amount of actual loss which has been suffered (as determined by reference to the date of default of the Agent or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any special conditions or circumstances known to the Agent at any time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall the Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, and business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, whether or not the Agent has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damages.


		
	25.11
	Lenders' indemnity to the Agent


Each Lender shall (in proportion to its share of the Total Commitments or, if the Total Commitments are then zero, to its share of the Total Commitments immediately prior to their reduction to zero) indemnify the Agent, within three Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability (including, without limitation, for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever) incurred by the Agent (otherwise than by reason of the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) (or, in the case of any cost, loss or liability pursuant to Clause 28.11 (Disruption to Payment Systems etc.) notwithstanding the Agent's negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the Agent has been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to a Finance Document).

 66








		
	25.12
	Resignation of the Agent


		
	a.
	The Agent may resign and appoint one of its Affiliates acting through an office in France as successor by giving notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.


		
	b.
	Alternatively the Agent may resign by giving 30 days' notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, in which case the Majority Lenders (after consultation with the Borrower) may appoint a successor Agent, which shall not be incorporated or acting through an office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.


		
	c.
	The Borrower may, on no less than 30 days' prior notice to the Agent, replace the Agent by requiring the Lenders to appoint a replacement Agent if any amount payable under a Finance Document by the Borrower becomes not deductible from the Borrower's taxable income for French tax purposes by reason of that amount (i) being paid or accrued to an Agent incorporated or acting through an office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction or (ii) paid to an account opened in the name of that Agent in a financial institution situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction. In this case, the Agent shall resign and a replacement Agent shall be appointed by the Majority Lenders (after consultation with the Borrower) within 30 days after notice of replacement was given.


		
	d.
	If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent in accordance with Clause 25.12.2 above within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Agent (after consultation with the Borrower) may appoint a successor Agent (acting through an office in France).


		
	e.
	If the Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer appropriate for it to remain as agent and the Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Agent under paragraph 25.12.4 above, the Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to persuade the proposed successor Agent to become a party to this Agreement as Agent) agree with the proposed successor Agent amendments to this Clause 25 and any other term of this Agreement dealing with the rights or obligations of the Agent consistent with then current market practice for the appointment and protection of corporate trustees together with any reasonable amendments to the agency fee payable under this Agreement which are consistent with the successor Agent's normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the Parties.


		
	f.
	The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent under the Finance Documents. The Borrower shall, within three Business Days of demand, reimburse the retiring Agent for the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) properly incurred by it in making available such documents and records and providing such assistance.


		
	g.
	The Agent's resignation notice shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor.


		
	h.
	Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph 25.12.6 above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 15.3 (Indemnity to the Agent) and this Clause 25 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date). Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.



 67








		
	i.
	After consultation with the Borrower, the Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Agent, require it to resign in accordance with Clause 25.12.2 above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with Clause 25.12.2 above.


		
	j.
	The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph 25.12.2 above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph 25.12.4 above) if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:


		
	i.
	the Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 13.8 (FATCA Information) and the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date;


		
	ii.
	the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 13.8 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or


		
	iii.
	the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date,


and (in each case) the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required if the Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and the Borrower or that Lender, by notice to the Agent, requires it to resign.
		
	25.13
	Replacement of the Agent


		
	a.
	After consultation with the Borrower, the Majority Lenders may, by giving 30 days' notice to the Agent (or, at any time if the Agent is an Impaired Agent, by giving any shorter notice determined by the Majority Lenders) replace the Agent by appointing a successor Agent, which shall not be incorporated or acting through an office situated in a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.


		
	b.
	The retiring Agent shall (at its own cost if it is an Impaired Agent and otherwise at the expense of the Lenders) make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent under the Finance Documents.


		
	c.
	The appointment of the successor Agent shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Lenders to the retiring Agent. As from this date, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under Clause 25.13.2 above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 15.3 (Indemnity to the Agent) and this Clause 25 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date).


		
	d.
	Any successor Agent and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.


		
	25.14
	Confidentiality


		
	a.
	In acting as agent for the Finance Parties, the Agent shall be regarded as acting through its agency division which shall be treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments.


		
	b.
	If information is received by another division or department of the Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it.



 68








		
	25.15
	Relationship with the Lenders


		
	a.
	Subject to Clause 23.8 (Pro rata interest settlement), the Agent may treat the person shown in its records as Lender at the opening of business (in the place of the Agent's principal office as notified to the Finance Parties from time to time) as the Lender acting through its Facility Office:


		
	i.
	entitled to or liable for any payment due under any Finance Document on that day; and


		
	ii.
	entitled to receive and act upon any notice, request, document or communication or make any decision or determination under any Finance Document made or delivered on that day,


unless it has received not less than five Business Days prior notice from that Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
		
	b.
	Any Lender may by notice to the Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices, communications, information and documents to be made or despatched to that Lender under the Finance Documents. Such notice shall contain the address, fax number and (where communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under Clause 30.6 (Electronic communication)) electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the transmission of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address (or such other information), department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 30.2 (Addresses) and Clause 30.6.1(B) of Clause 30.6 (Electronic communication) and the Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender.


		
	25.16
	Credit appraisal by the Lenders


Without affecting the responsibility of the Borrower for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms to the Agent and the Arrangers that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with any Finance Document including but not limited to:
		
	a.
	the financial condition, status and nature of each member of the Group;


		
	b.
	the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document;


		
	c.
	whether that Lender has recourse, and the nature and extent of that recourse, against any Party or any of its respective assets under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document; and


		
	d.
	the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the Transaction Information and any other information provided by the Agent, any Party or by any other person under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by any Finance Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document.



 69








		
	25.17
	Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent


If any Party owes an amount to the Agent under the Finance Documents the Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which the Agent would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted.
		
	25.18
	Role of Reference Banks


		
	a.
	No Reference Bank is under any obligation to provide a quotation or any other information to the Agent.


		
	b.
	No Reference Bank will be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, or for any Reference Bank Quotation, unless directly caused by its gross negligence or wilful misconduct.


		
	c.
	No Party (other than the relevant Reference Bank) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of any Reference Bank in respect of any claim it might have against that Reference Bank or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document, or to any Reference Bank Quotation, and any officer, employee or agent of each Reference Bank may rely on this Clause 25.18.




		
	26.
	CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE FINANCE PARTIES


		
	26.1
	No provision of this Agreement will:


		
	a.
	interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;


		
	b.
	oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim; or


		
	c.
	oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.


Any Lender is entitled to exercise any of its rights and discretion under the Finance Documents through any agent (including any entity appointed to act as servicer on its behalf).


		
	27.
	SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES


		
	27.1
	Payments to Finance Parties


If a Finance Party (a "Recovering Finance Party") receives or recovers any amount from the Borrower other than in accordance with Clause 28 (Payment Mechanics) (a "Recovered Amount") and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:
		
	a.
	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery to the Agent;


		
	b.
	the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 28 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and


		
	c.
	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the "Sharing Payment") equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 28.6 (Partial payments).



 70








		
	27.2
	Redistribution of payments


The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the Borrower and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the "Sharing Finance Parties") in accordance with Clause 28.6 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of the Borrower to the Sharing Finance Parties.
		
	27.3
	Recovering Finance Party's rights


On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 27.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from the Borrower, as between the Borrower and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by the Borrower.
		
	27.4
	Reversal of redistribution


If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:
		
	a.
	each Sharing Finance Party shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay) (the "Redistributed Amount"); and


		
	b.
	as between the Borrower and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by the Borrower.


		
	27.5

SECTION 10
ADMINISTRATION
		
	28.
	PAYMENT MECHANICS


		
	28.1
	Payments to the Agent


		
	a.
	On each date on which the Borrower or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, the Borrower or Lender shall make the same available to the Agent (unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document) for value on the due date at the time and in such funds specified by the Agent as being customary at the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.


		
	b.
	Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in a principal financial centre in such Participating Member State or London, as specified by the Agent), other than a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction, and with such bank as the Agent, in each case specifies.


		
	28.2
	Distributions by the Agent


Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 28.3 (Distributions to the Borrower) and Clause 28.4 (Clawback) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five Business Days' notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London as specified by that Party), other than a Non-Cooperative Jurisdiction.
		
	28.3
	Distributions to the Borrower


The Agent may (with the consent of the Borrower or in accordance with Clause 29 (Set-Off)) apply any amount received by it for the Borrower in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from the Borrower under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.
		
	28.4
	Clawback


		
	a.
	Where a sum is to be paid to the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, the Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party (or to enter into or perform any related exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum.


		
	b.
	If the Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Agent had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by the Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Agent, calculated by the Agent to reflect its cost of funds.


		
	28.5
	Impaired Agent


		
	a.
	If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, the Borrower or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Agent in accordance with Clause 28.1 (Payments to the Agent) may instead pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s).


		
	b.
	A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 28.5 shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents.



 72








		
	28.6
	Partial payments

	i.
	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid amount owing to the Agent under the Finance Documents;


		
	ii.
	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fee or commission due but unpaid under this Agreement;


		
	iii.
	thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal due but unpaid under this Agreement; and


		
	iv.
	fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Finance Documents.


		
	b.
	The Agent shall, if so directed by the Majority Lenders, vary the order set out in Clause 28.6.1(B) to 28.6.1(D) above.


		
	c.
	Clauses 28.6.1 and 28.6.2 above will override any appropriation made by the Borrower.


		
	28.7
	No set-off by the Borrower


All payments to be made by the Borrower under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or counterclaim.
		
	28.8
	Business Days


		
	a.
	Any payment under the Finance Documents which is due to be made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).


		
	b.
	During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal or an Unpaid Sum under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal or Unpaid Sum at the rate payable on the original due date.


		
	28.9
	Currency of account

	Each payment of interest shall be made in the currency in which the sum in respect of which the interest is payable was denominated, pursuant to this Agreement, when that interest accrued.


		
	d.
	Each payment in respect of costs, expenses or Taxes shall be made in the currency in which the costs, expenses or Taxes are incurred.

	ii.
	any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down by the Agent (acting reasonably).


		
	b.
	If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will, to the extent the Agent (acting reasonably and after consultation with the Borrower) specifies to be necessary, be amended to comply with any generally accepted conventions and market practice in the Relevant Market and otherwise to reflect the change in currency.

	b.
	the Agent shall not be obliged to consult with the Borrower in relation to any changes mentioned in Clause 28.11.1 if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances and, in any event, shall have no obligation to agree to such changes;


		
	c.
	the Agent may consult with the Finance Parties in relation to any changes mentioned in Clause 28.11.1 but shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances;


		
	d.
	any such changes agreed upon by the Agent and the Borrower shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties as an amendment to (or, as the case may be, waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 34 (Amendments and Waivers);


		
	e.
	the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever (including, without limitation for negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 28.11; and

	29.
	SET-OFF


A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from the Borrower under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to the Borrower, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

that Defaulting Lender's Commitments under the Facility will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the Facility and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender's Total Commitments being zero, that Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs 34.4.1(A) and 34.4.1(B) above.

	34.6
	Replacement of Screen Rate


		
	a.
	Subject to Clause 34.7 (Other exceptions), if any Screen Rate is not available for a currency which can be selected for a Loan, any amendment or waiver which relates to providing for another benchmark rate to apply in relation to that currency in place of that Screen Rate (or which relates to aligning any provision of a Finance Document to the use of that other benchmark rate) may be made with the consent of the Majority Lenders and the Borrower.
