that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 


  

	 	(d)	 If an Interest Period would otherwise overrun the Termination Date, it will be shortened so that it ends on the Termination Date.



  

	9.3	 Inability to determine rates 



Where LIBOR is to be calculated on any Loan by reference to the Reference Banks but no Reference Bank supplies a rate when
required to do so under this Agreement: 
  

	 	(a)	 the Facility Agent must promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of such market disruption event; and 



 

	 	(b)	 the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate
of: 


  

	 	(i)	 the Margin; and 



  
 23 









	 	(ii)	 the rate notified to the Facility Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable but by no later than the date when interest is due to be paid in
respect of that Interest Period to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select. 



 

	9.4	 Break Costs 


  

	 	(a)	 The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of a
Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for that Loan or Unpaid Sum. 


  

	 	(b)	 Each Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Facility Agent in accordance with paragraph (a), provide a certificate
confirming the amount of its Break Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

All payments by the Borrower under the Finance Documents must be paid in US Dollars. Any payments by the Borrower relating to
costs, losses, expenses or Taxes may, at the request of the Facility Agent, be made in the currency in which the relative costs, losses, expenses or Taxes were incurred. Any currency exchange for the purposes of this Clause 9.5 shall be undertaken
at the Spot Rate of Exchange. 
  

	9.6	 Accounts certifications and determinations

the purpose of any litigation or arbitration proceedings.

year of 360 days. 


  

	9.7	 Set-off 



Except as expressly provided to the contrary in the Finance Documents, all payments (including each Repayment Instalment) by
the Borrower under any Finance Document shall be made in full without any set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	10.	 DEFAULT INTEREST 


  

	10.1	 If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from
the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate that, subject to Clause 10.2 below, is one per cent. higher than the rate that would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of
non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 10.1 shall be immediately payable
by the Borrower on demand by the Facility Agent. 



  
 24 









	10.2	 If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan that became due on a day that was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that
Loan: 


  

	 	(a)	 the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to
that Loan; and 


  

	 	(b)	 the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be one per cent. higher than the rate that would have
applied if the overdue amount had not become due. 


  

	10.3	 Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable
to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

applicable jurisdiction for any Lender to perform any of its obligations under a Finance Document or to fund or maintain its participation in any Loan and that Lender has notified the Facility Agent of that fact, the Facility Agent shall notify the
Borrower promptly that: 


  

	 	(i)	 the Borrower shall pay or prepay the participation of that Lender in each Loan (together with, for the avoidance of doubt, that Lender’s

	 	(e)	 Any purported Voluntary Prepayment Notice that does not comply with the requirements of this Clause 11.3 shall not be valid and the Facility

	11.4	 Mandatory prepayment – Charterer option to purchase a Vessel 



If Ras Laffan exercises its rights pursuant to the Time Charter Party Agreement in respect of a Vessel to purchase (either
itself or through a nominee) such Vessel (the Purchase Option Vessel) then, provided the Borrower provides the notice referred to in Clause 16.8(a) (Notifications under Time Charter Party Agreements) to the Facility Agent not less than 30

	12.	 TAX GROSS-UP AND INDEMNITY 


  

	12.1	 All payments to be made by the Borrower to any Finance Party under any Finance Document shall be made free and clear of and without Tax Deduction
unless the Borrower is required to make such a payment subject to the deduction or withholding of any Tax, in which case the sum payable by the Borrower (in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made) shall be increased to
the extent necessary to ensure that the relevant Finance Party receives a sum net of any deduction or withholding equal to the sum which it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made.



  

	12.2	 A payment shall not be increased if on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to a Finance Party without a Tax
Deduction if either (i) that Finance Party had complied with its obligations at Clause 12.3 or Clause 30.1(a) (Mitigation) or (ii) the Facility Office of that Finance Party was in Qatar. 



 

	12.3	 If the Borrower is required to make a FATCA Deduction: 


  

	 	(a)	 the Borrower must make the FATCA Deduction and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction within the time allowed and in the
minimum amount required by FATCA;

	12.7	 The Borrower shall (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Lender an amount equal to the loss, liability or

	 	(a)	 with respect to any Tax assessed on a Lender:

is treated as resident for tax purposes; or 


  

	 	(ii)	 under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Lender’s facility office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that
jurisdiction, 


 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 Lender; or 
  

	 	(b)	 to the extent a loss, liability or cost: 


  

	 	(i)	 is compensated for by an increased payment under Clauses 12.1 to 12.6 (inclusive) or Clause 13.1(b) (FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party);



  

	 	(ii)	 would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clauses 12.1 to 12.6 (inclusive) but was not so compensated solely because one of the
exclusions in Clause 12.2 applied; or 


  

	 	(iii)	 is compensated for by a payment under Clause 13.1(d) (FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party) (or would have been compensated for by a payment under
Clause 13.1(d) (FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party) but was not so compensated because of the exclusion in Clause 13.1(e)) (FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party). 



 

	12.9	 If the Borrower makes a payment pursuant to either Clause 12.1 or Clause 12.7 (for the purposes of this Clause 12.9 a Tax Payment) and the
relevant Finance Party obtains a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of, any Tax attributable to the payment or deduction or withholding to which such Tax Payment relates, the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Borrower which
that Finance Party reasonably determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Borrower not made the applicable Tax Payment. 



 

	13.	 FATCA APPLICATION 


  

	13.1	 FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party 


  

	 	(a)	 Each Finance Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required by FATCA to make, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction,
and no Finance Party is required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction. If a Finance




  
 28 









	 	 
Party becomes aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to another Party (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction) it must notify that
Party and the Facility Agent. 


  

	 	(b)	 If the Facility Agent is required to make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Finance Party under the Finance Documents that relates to
a payment by the Borrower, the amount of the payment due from the Borrower will be increased to an amount that (after the Facility Agent has made such FATCA Deduction), leaves the Facility Agent with an amount equal to the payment that would have
been made by the Facility Agent if no FATCA Deduction had been required. 


  

	 	(c)	 The Facility Agent must promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Finance Party under the
Finance Documents that relates to a payment by the Borrower (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such a FATCA Deduction) notify the Borrower and relevant Finance Party. 



 

	 	(d)	 Subject to paragraph (e), the Borrower must (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Finance Party an amount
equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Finance Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered by that Finance Party as a result of another Finance Party making a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment due to it
under a Finance Document. This paragraph does not apply to the extent a loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under paragraph (b) above. 



 

	 	(e)	 Paragraph (d) shall only apply if and to the extent the Borrower becomes a FATCA FFI or a US Tax Obligor. 



 

	 	(f)	 A Finance Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (d) above must promptly notify the Facility Agent of the FATCA Deduction
that will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent must notify the Borrower. 


  

	 	(g)	 A Finance Party must, on receiving a payment from the Borrower under this Clause, notify the Facility Agent. 



 

	13.2	 Tax Credit and FATCA 



If the Borrower makes a FATCA Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that: 

 

	 	(a)	 a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that FATCA Payment forms part, to that FATCA Payment or to a FATCA Deduction in
consequence of which that FATCA Payment was required; and 


  

	 	(b)	 that Finance Party has obtained and used that Tax Credit, 



then that Finance Party must pay an amount to the Borrower which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that
payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the FATCA Payment not been required to be made by the Borrower. 
  

	14.	 FATCA INFORMATION

	 	(A)	 a FATCA Exempt Party; or 


  

	 	(B)	 not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 



  
 29 









	 	(ii)	 supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable
“passthru payment percentage” or other information required under relevant US Treasury regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other
Party’s compliance with FATCA; and 


  

	 	(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 (a)(i) 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 must notify that other Party promptly. 


  

	 	(c)	 A Finance Party is not obliged to do anything under paragraph (a) above, and no other Party is obliged to do anything under paragraph (a)(iii)
above, in each case, 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. 


  

	14.2	 Failure to confirm FATCA status 



If a Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with
Clause 14.1(a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 14.1(c) (FATCA confirmation) applies), then: 
  

	 	(a)	 if that Party failed to confirm whether it is (or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such Party is to be treated for the purposes of the Finance
Documents (and payments made under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 


  

	 	(b)	 if that Party failed to confirm its applicable “passthru payment percentage” then such Party is to be treated for the purposes of the
Finance Documents (and payments made under them) as if its applicable passthru percentage is 100%, 


 until
(in each case) such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

the Facility Agent and each of its officers and employees (in each case acting reasonably) as a direct result of: 
  

	 	(a)	 investigating any event which it reasonably believes is a Default; 



 

	 	(b)	 acting or relying on any notice, request or instruction which it reasonably believes to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised;

	20.	 MORTGAGEE’S INTEREST INSURANCE 


  

	20.1	 In respect of each Vessel, the Security Agent, acting on the instructions of the Facility Agent, shall be entitled from time to time (at the
reasonable cost and expense of the Borrower and at no cost or expense to any Finance Party, hereunder in respect of all premiums and other expenses that are incurred in effecting, maintaining or renewing any such insurance or dealing with, or
considering, any matter arising out of any such insurance) to effect, maintain and renew mortgagee’s interest marine insurance providing for the indemnification of the Finance Parties for any losses under or in connection with any Finance
Document that directly or indirectly result from loss, of or damage to, a Vessel or a liability of a Vessel, a Guarantor or the Borrower, being a loss or damage that is prima facie covered by a Required Insurance but in respect of which there is a
non-payment (or reduced payment) by the underwriters by reason of, or on the basis of any allegation concerning: 


  

	 	(a)	 any act or omission on the part of a Guarantor or the Borrower, of the manager of any Vessel or of any officer, employee or agent of any such

any officer, employee or agent of any such person, including the casting away or damaging of any Vessel and/or any Vessel being unseaworthy; or 


  

	 	(c)	 any other matter that is insured against under a mortgagee’s interest marine insurance policy from time to time generally available, whether
or not similar to the foregoing, 


 on market standard terms, in such manner as the Security Agent may from
time to time consider appropriate, in the Required Insurance Amount for such insurance through such insurers as may be available to the Security Agent. 
  

	20.2	 To the extent reasonably practicable, the Security Agent shall give notice to the Borrower before effecting any policy of insurance in accordance
with this Clause 20 and, with any such notice, shall give details of the costs and expenses associated with such policy. Neither the Security Agent’s rights nor the Borrower’s obligations under this Clause 20 (including the Borrower’s
obligation to 



  
 45 









	 	 
bear any costs and expenses associated with effecting, maintaining and renewing any insurances taken out in accordance with this Clause 20) shall be impaired or otherwise affected by any delay or
failure by the Security Agent to give notice in accordance with this Clause 20. 


  

	21.	 ASSIGNMENT AND TRANSFER 


  

	21.1	 Assignment and transfer 


  

	 	(a)	 Each Finance Party shall, subject to the consent of the Borrower, where required by this Clause 21, be entitled to assign or transfer any of its
respective rights, benefits and/or obligations hereunder to another bank or financial institution or to a trust, fund or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans,
securities or other financial assets provided that the provisions of this Clause 21 are complied with. 


  

	 	(b)	 The Finance Parties and the Borrower acknowledge, agree and undertake to fully comply with the requirements and procedures set out in this Clause
21. 


  

	 	(c)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Lender shall be entitled to undertake any syndication with respect to the Tranche
Commitments or any Loan without the prior written consent of the Borrower. 


  

	21.2	 Assignment by the Lenders 



The Finance Parties and the Borrower acknowledge and agree that the Lenders may, at any time assign, transfer or otherwise
dispose of, or offer or grant any interest in, the whole or any part of their participations in the Loans, their Tranche Commitments or any of their respective rights under this Agreement: 

 

	 	(a)	 so long as, and to the extent that any such Lender (the Existing Lender) assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of any interest or rights,
the assignee or transferee (the New Lender) provides a satisfactory Certificate of Transfer Undertaking (as conclusively determined by the Facility Agent) to the Administrative Agents, the Lenders and the Borrower that it shall be bound by
the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Finance Documents and shall be under the same obligations (matching the rights assigned or transferred) towards the Facility Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower as it would have been under if
it had originally been a Party to this Agreement; 


  

	 	(b)	 provided that the Finance Parties and the Borrower shall not be obliged to recognise the New Lender as having rights against any of them until such
satisfactory Certificate of Transfer Undertaking referred to in paragraph (a) is obtained from the New Lender whereupon the Existing Lender shall be relieved of those obligations corresponding to the rights so assigned or transferred;



  

	 	(c)	 provided that a Lender may only transfer, assign or otherwise dispose of, or offer or grant any interest in, the whole or any part of its
participation in the Loans, its Tranche Commitments or any of its rights under this Agreement: 


  

	 	(i)	 with the Borrower’s prior written consent; or 


  

	 	(ii)	 with prior written notice to the Borrower, if (A) such transfer, disposal, offer or grant is required by law or by the direction of the Qatar
Central Bank or other applicable authority of the State of Qatar and is to a bank or financial institution established in, and with its principal place of business in, Qatar; (B) an Event of Default is continuing; or (C) such transfer or
assignment is to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; and 



  
 46 









	 	(d)	 provided that the consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer by a Lender (if required) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The
Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent to any request for such assignment or transfer ten (10) Business Days after the Borrower is given notice of such request unless consent is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time.



  

	21.3	 Conditions to assignment by the Lenders 



Subject to the provisions of Clause 21.2 (Assignment by the Lenders): 

 

	 	(a)	 an Existing Lender shall not be responsible to a New Lender for: 



 

	 	(i)	 the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; 



 

	 	(ii)	 the payment of any amounts under Clause 23 (Payments by the Facility Agent – Limited Recourse) to such New Lender; or 



 

	 	(iii)	 the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document; 



 

	 	(b)	 each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender, the Administrative Agents and the other Lenders that it: 



 

	 	(i)	 has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower in connection with its
participation in the Loans and has not relied 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 while any amount is or may be outstanding under the
Finance Documents; 


  

	 	(c)	 nothing in this Agreement or any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to: 



 

	 	(i)	 accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 21; or



  

	 	(ii)	 support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by the Borrower of its obligations under any Finance Document or
otherwise; 


  

	 	(d)	 any reference in this Agreement or any Finance Document to a Lender includes a New Lender but excludes a Lender if: 



 

	 	(i)	 no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and the Finance Documents; and 



 

	 	(ii)	 its Tranche Commitments have been cancelled or otherwise reduced to zero; and 



 

	 	(e)	 if: 


  

	 	(i)	 a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents; and 



  
 47 









	 	(ii)	 as a result of circumstances existing at or after the date the assignment or transfer occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the
New Lender under Clause 12 (Tax gross-up and indemnity) or Clause 29 (Increased Costs), 


 then the New
Lender is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender would have been if the assignment or transfer had not occurred. 
  

	21.4	 Procedure for transfer 


  

	 	(a)	 Subject to the conditions set out in Clauses 21.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 21.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders), a transfer is
effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent must, subject to paragraph
(b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement execute that Transfer Certificate. 



 

	 	(b)	 The Facility Agent is only obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied
it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” checks or other similar checks under any applicable law or regulation in relation to the transfer to such New Lender. 



 

	 	(c)	 Subject to Clause 21.6 (Pro rata interest settlement) on the Transfer Date: 



 

	 	(i)	 to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Finance
Documents the Borrower and the Existing Lender will be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents will be cancelled insofar as the
Borrower and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the Borrower and the Existing Lender (being the Discharged Rights and Obligations); 



 

	 	(ii)	 each of the Borrower and the New Lender will assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another which differ from the
Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as the Borrower and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the Borrower and the Existing Lender; 



 

	 	(iii)	 each Administrative Agent, the New Lender and other Lenders will acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they
would have acquired and assumed 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 each Administrative Agent and the Existing Lender will each be
released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and 


  

	 	(iv)	 the New Lender will become a Party as a Lender. 


  

	 	(d)	 Each Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to enter into and deliver any duly
completed Transfer Certificate on its behalf. 


  

	21.5	 Procedure for assignment 


  

	 	(a)	 Subject to the conditions set out in Clauses 21.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 21.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders), an assignment may
be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed 



  
 48 









	 	 
Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent must, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it
of a duly completed Assignment 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 Assignment Agreement. 



 

	 	(b)	 The Facility Agent is only obliged to execute an Assignment 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” checks and other similar checks under any applicable law or regulation in relation to the assignment to such New Lender. 



 

	 	(c)	 Subject to Clause 21.6 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date: 



 

	 	(i)	 the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender the rights under the Finance Documents expressed to be the subject of the assignment
in the Assignment Agreement; 


  

	 	(ii)	 the Existing Lender will be released by the Borrower and the other Finance Parties from the obligations owed by it (the Relevant
Obligations) and expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement; 


  

	 	(iii)	 the New Lender will become a Party as a Lender and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the Relevant Obligations; 



 

	 	(iv)	 if the assignment relates only to part of the Existing Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans that part will be separated from the
Existing Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans, made an independent debt and assigned to the New Lender as a whole debt; and 


  

	 	(v)	 the Facility Agent’s execution of the Assignment Agreement as agent for the Borrower will constitute notice to the Borrower of the assignment.



  

	 	(d)	 Each Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to enter into and deliver any duly
completed Assignment Agreement on its behalf. 


  

	 	(e)	 Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 21.5 (Procedure for assignment) to assign their rights under the Finance
Documents (but not, without the consent of the Borrower or unless in accordance with Clause 21.4 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by the Borrower from the obligations owed to the Borrower by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent
obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in in Clauses 21.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 21.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders). 



 

	21.6	 Pro rata interest settlement 



If the Facility 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 pursuant to Clause 21.4 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 21.5 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of
that notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period): 
  

	 	(a)	 any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time will continue to
accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (Accrued Amounts) and will become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period;
and 



  
 49 









	 	(b)	 the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that: 



 

	 	(i)	 when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and 



 

	 	(ii)	 the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 21.6, have been payable to
it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts. 


  

	21.7	 Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrower 



The Facility Agent must, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Certificate or an Assignment
Agreement, send to the Borrower a copy of that Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement. 
  

	21.8	 Resignation and termination of appointment of an Administrative Agent 



 

	 	(a)	 An Administrative Agent may, subject to consultation with the Borrower, resign by giving 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, in
which case the Majority Lenders may appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Administrative Agent within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Administrative Agent may
appoint a successor Administrative Agent. 


  

	 	(b)	 The Facility Agent’s resignation notice will take effect upon the appointment of a successor Facility Agent. 



 

	 	(c)	 The Security Agent’s resignation notice will take effect upon: (i) the appointment of a successor Security Agent; and (ii) the
transfer of all Security Property to that successor. 


  

	 	(d)	 If for any reason an Administrative Agent becomes incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent, it may and, if
requested by the Majority Lenders, shall resign pursuant to the above paragraph. 


  

	 	(e)	 The Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above if on or after the date that is three months before the earliest FATCA
Application Date relating to any payment to the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents, either: 


  

	 	(i)	 the Facility Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 14 (FATCA Information) and the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that the
Facility 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 Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 14 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Facility Agent will not be (or will
have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or 


  

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



  
 50 








 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 Facility Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and the Borrower or that Lender (as applicable), by notice to the Facility Agent, requires it to resign. 

 

	 	(f)	 An Administrative Agent who is retiring or whose appointment has been terminated pursuant to this Clause 21.8 (the Retiring Administrative
Agent) shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Administrative Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Administrative Agent may reasonably require for the purposes of performing its functions
as Administrative Agent under the Finance Documents. 


  

	 	(g)	 Where the circumstances leading to an Administrative Agent becoming incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent
and therefore being required to resign pursuant to paragraph (d) may be attributed to such Administrative Agent’s own acts or omissions, that Administrative Agent shall be liable for any loss or damage caused to the Lenders as a result of
it becoming incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent. 


  

	 	(h)	 Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, the Retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in
respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this paragraph (h). Any successor Administrative 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 to this Agreement. 


  

	21.9	 Conditions to assignment by Administrative Agent 



No assignment or transfer entered into by an Administrative Agent pursuant to Clause 21.8(a) (Resignation and termination of
appointment of an Administrative Agent) or Clause 21.8(d) (Resignation and termination of appointment of an Administrative Agent) shall be effective: 
  

	 	(a)	 until such assignee or transferee has agreed in writing with the Lenders and the Borrower that it has assumed the obligations of the existing
Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) under this Agreement and the Finance Documents whereupon the existing Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall be released from all of its obligations hereunder and the successor and
each of the Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had originally been a Party as Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) from the date of this Agreement; and



  

	 	(b)	 unless: 


  

	 	(i)	 such assignment or transfer is with the Borrower’s prior written consent; or 



 

	 	(ii)	 an Event of Default is continuing. 


  

	21.10	 Assignment by the Borrower 



The Borrower shall not be entitled to assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement. 

  
 51 









	22.	 APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS 


  

	22.1	 Appointment of the Facility Agent 


  

	 	(a)	 Each Lender irrevocably: 


  

	 	(i)	 appoints the Facility Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Finance Documents; 



 

	 	(ii)	 authorises the Facility Agent (whether or not by or through its employees or agents) to: 



 

	 	(A)	 enter into on its behalf each Finance Document expressed to be entered into by the Facility Agent; 



 

	 	(B)	 give any authorisation, confirmation or consent expressed to be given by the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents; and 



 

	 	(C)	 to perform such duties and take such action on its behalf and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically
delegated to the Facility Agent by the Finance Documents, together with such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto (but subject to any restrictions or limitations specified in this Agreement).



  

	 	(b)	 The Facility Agent shall not have any duties, obligations or liabilities (whether fiduciary or otherwise) to any Finance Party beyond those
expressly stated in the Finance Documents. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature as more particularly set out in this Agreement. 


  


	22.2	 Appointment of the Security Agent 


  

	 	(a)	 Each Finance Party (other than the Security Agent) irrevocably: 



 

	 	(i)	 appoints the Security Agent to act as its trustee and/or agent (as applicable) under, in connection with and on the terms and conditions contained
in the Finance Documents; 


  

	 	(ii)	 authorises the Security Agent (whether or not by or through its employees or agents) to: 



 

	 	(A)	 enter into and deliver on its behalf each Finance Document expressed to be entered into by the Security Agent; 



 

	 	(B)	 give any authorisation, confirmation or consent expressed to be given by the Security Agent under the Finance Documents; and 



 

	 	(C)	 to perform such duties and take such action on its behalf and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically
delegated to the Security Agent by the Finance Documents, together with such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto (but subject to any restrictions or limitations specified in this Agreement).



  

	 	(b)	 The Security Agent shall not have any duties, obligations or liabilities (whether fiduciary or otherwise) to any Finance Party beyond those
expressly stated in the Finance Documents. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature as more particularly set out in this Agreement. 


  

	 	(c)	 The Security Agent declares that it holds the Security Property on trust for the Finance Parties on the terms contained in this Agreement.




  
 52 









	 	(d)	 In relation to any jurisdiction the courts of which would not recognise or give effect to the trust expressed to be created under paragraph (c),
the relationship of the Finance Parties to the Security Agent shall be construed as one of principal and agent but, to the extent permissible under the laws of that jurisdiction, all the other provisions of this Agreement shall have full force and
effect between the Parties. 


  

	 	(e)	 For the purposes of paragraph (d) only, the Borrower hereby undertakes to pay to the Security Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing by it
to any Lender or the Facility Agent in respect of the Secured Obligations as and when the same fall due for payment by it under the Finance Documents (the Parallel Debt) so that the Security Agent shall be an obligee of such covenant to pay
and the Security Agent shall be entitled to claim performance thereof in its own name and not only as Security Agent acting on behalf of the Lenders. The Parallel Debt owed by the Borrower (i) shall be decreased to the extent that the Secured
Obligations to which such Parallel Debt corresponds have been decreased under and in accordance with the Finance Documents and vice versa; and (ii) shall not exceed the aggregate of the Secured Obligations owed by the Borrower. The Security
Agent agrees with the other Finance Parties that it will not exercise its rights as creditor of the Parallel Debt except in accordance with this Agreement. 


  

	 	(f)	 Nothing in this Agreement constitutes the Security Agent as an agent, trustee or fiduciary of any Obligor. 



 

	 	(g)	 Each of the Security Agent and any Receiver may, at any time, delegate by power of attorney or otherwise to any person for any period, all or any
right, power, authority or discretion vested in it in its capacity as such. 


  

	22.3	 Acceptance 



By its signature to this Agreement each Administrative Agent accepts its appointment as set out in this Clause 22. 

 

	22.4	 Authority 



Any action taken by an Administrative Agent under or in relation to the Finance Documents with requisite authority, or on the
basis of appropriate instructions, received from the Lenders (or as otherwise duly authorised) shall be binding on the Lenders. 
  

	23.	 PAYMENTS BY THE FACILITY AGENT – LIMITED RECOURSE 



 

	23.1	 Payments to Lenders 



Subject to Clause 23.2 (Limited recourse), the Facility Agent will pay the Lenders amounts in respect of their participations
in the Loans on the dates and otherwise on the terms set out in this Clause 23 (Payments by the Facility Agent – Limited Recourse). 
  

	23.2	 Limited recourse 



The obligation of the Facility Agent to pay the Lenders the Relevant Percentage of a Repayment Instalment or any other
Remittance pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is conditional upon the Facility Agent having received the corresponding payment from the Borrower pursuant to the relevant Finance Document. The Lenders shall have no recourse to the Facility Agent
in the event of any failure by the Borrower to make any such payments, except if such a failure by the Borrower is caused by fraud, gross negligence or wilful default on the part of the Facility Agent. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that the
primary credit risk assumed by the Lenders in relation to their participation in each Loan (and their entry into this Agreement) is that of the Borrower. 

  
 53 









	23.3	 Distribution of Remittances to Lender 



Subject to Clause 23.2 (Limited recourse), whenever the Facility Agent: 

 

	 	(a)	 has actually received a payment from the Borrower in respect of a Remittance; and 



 

	 	(b)	 is entitled to apply the amount received in such manner, 



the Facility Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender its Relevant Percentage of such payment. 

 

	23.4	 Application of moneys 


  

	 	(a)	 For the purposes of this Clause 23, if the Facility Agent obtains a partial or total payment of any amount due from the Borrower in respect of any
Remittance by virtue of the Borrower being entitled to a set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or any security or other payment and actually applies the amount of such payment in or towards satisfaction of amounts due to the Facility Agent in
respect of that Remittance, the amount of such partial or total payment so applied will be treated for the purposes of this Clause 23 as if an actual payment of such amount had been received from the Borrower, but without prejudice to the provisions
of Clause 24 (Refund of Payments and Further Payments by the Lenders). 


  

	 	(b)	 Any sums received by the Facility Agent for application in accordance with this Clause 23.4 shall be credited to a suspense account and held by the
Facility Agent for the benefit of the Lenders pro rata according to their Relevant Percentages hereunder but shall not be treated as having been received by the Facility Agent for the purposes of this Clause 23 unless and until such sums are
appropriated by the Facility Agent in or towards payment in respect of that Remittance. 


  

	23.5	 Reduction in payments 



Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, in the event that the Borrower fails to pay in full in respect of any
amount due to the Facility Agent pursuant to the relevant Finance Document on the due date relating thereto, for any reasons whatsoever, the obligation of the Facility Agent to make the payments referred to in this Clause 23 to the Lenders shall be
reduced pro rata by the shortfall in the payment received by the Facility Agent. 
  

	23.6	 Order of application 


  

	 	(a)	 All amounts from time to time received or recovered by the Security Agent pursuant to the terms of any Finance Document or in connection with the
realisation or enforcement of all or any part of the Transaction Security shall be held by the Security Agent on trust or as agent (as applicable in accordance with Clause 22.2 (Appointment of Security Agent)) for the Finance Parties and transferred
promptly to the Facility Agent for application in accordance with paragraph (b). 



  
 54 









	 	(b)	 All moneys from time to time received or recovered by the Facility Agent in each case in connection with the realisation or enforcement of the
Finance Documents (for itself and/or on behalf of the Lenders) shall be held by the Facility Agent and be applied, (unless instructed to the contrary by the Lenders) in the following order of priority: 



 

	 	(i)	 in discharging (pro rata) any sums (including reimbursement of any fees, costs and other expenses) owing to the Facility Agent, the Security Agent
or any Receiver under the Finance Documents; 


  

	 	(ii)	 in discharging all costs and expenses incurred by any Finance Party in connection with any realisation or enforcement of the Transaction Security
taken in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents; 


  

	 	(iii)	 in payment to the Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for application towards the discharge of all sums due and payable by
the Obligors under the Finance Documents; and 


  

	 	(iv)	 the balance, if any, in payment to the Obligors or any other person so entitled. 



 

	23.7	 Investment of proceeds 



Prior to the application of the proceeds of the Finance Documents in accordance with Clause 23.6 (Order of application),
the Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) may, at its discretion, after informing and obtaining the consent of all of the Lenders, hold all or part of those proceeds in a suspense or impersonal account(s) in the name of that
Administrative Agent with such financial institution (including itself) for so long as such Administrative Agent shall reasonably think fit (any interest or return on any such account earned being credited to the relevant account) pending the
application from time to time of those monies at such Administrative Agent’s discretion in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 23. 
  

	23.8	 Permitted deductions 



The Facility Agent shall be entitled to: 
  

	 	(a)	 set aside by way of reserve amounts required to meet; and 



 

	 	(b)	 make and pay, 



any deductions and withholdings (on account of Taxes or otherwise) that it is or may be required by any applicable law to make

legal proceedings taken by it to recover any sums owing to it under the Finance Documents with any other Finance Party which had a legal right to, but declined to, either join in such proceedings or commence and diligently pursue separate
proceedings to enforce its rights, unless the proceedings instituted by the Sharing Finance Party are instituted by it without prior notice having been given to such other Finance Party and without an opportunity having been given to such other
Finance Party to join in such proceedings. 


  

	 	(c)	 If any Discharged Amount subsequently has to be wholly or partly refunded to the Borrower by a Sharing Finance Party which has paid an amount equal
to that Discharged Amount to the Facility Agent under paragraph (a), each Finance Party to which any part of that amount was distributed shall, on request from the Sharing Finance Party, repay to the Sharing Finance Party that Finance Party’s
proportionate share of the amount which has to be so refunded by the Sharing Finance Party. 


  

	 	(d)	 Each Finance Party shall on request supply to the Facility Agent such information as the Facility Agent may from time to time request for the

 NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the foregoing recitals and for other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Charterer, the Security Agent and the Guarantor hereby agree as follows: 

ARTICLE 1. – CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT, ETC. 

1.1 Quiet Enjoyment Undertakings. The Security Agent for itself and in its capacity as agent for the Finance Parties
irrevocably undertakes that subject to due performance by the Charterer of all its material obligations under the Charter (subject to the expiry of any grace periods), the Security Agent shall, for the duration of the Charter and any extension
thereof permitted by the Charter allow the Charterer unfettered use of the Vessel in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Charter. Any breach by the Charterer of its obligations under the Charter shall be subject solely to the rights and
remedies afforded to the Guarantor under the Charter. The Security Agent will not exercise any rights it may have against the Vessel or in connection with the Charter if any default under the Finance Documents (an “Event of Default”) has
occurred and is continuing, except as provided by Articles 1.3 and 1.7 below. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, where the
Vessel is arrested or subjected to forfeiture proceedings (or the same are threatened) reasonable actions on the part of the Security Agent, as advised to and agreed by Charterer, to have the Vessel released from such arrest or proceedings or to
prevent or avoid any such arrest or proceedings shall not constitute a breach by the Security Agent of the terms of this Consent. 

1.2 Consent to Assignment. The Charterer (i) consents in all respects to the pledge and assignment to the Security
Agent pursuant to the Finance Documents of all the Guarantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Charter (the “Assigned Interests”) and to the grant of the Mortgage; (ii) acknowledges the right of the Security Agent
or any designee of the Security Agent, in the exercise of the Security Agent’s rights and remedies under the Finance Documents, to make all demands, give all notices, take all actions and exercise all rights of the Guarantor under the Charter;
and (iii) acknowledges that, without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent, acting on the instructions of the requisite Banks in accordance with the Finance Documents, the Guarantor may not amend the Charter, where such amendment
would have a material adverse effect on (A) the ability of any Obligor to perform its obligations under any Finance Document, (B) the validity or enforceability of any Finance Document, or (C) any right or remedy of any Finance Party
in respect of a Finance Document. 
 1.3 Substitute Owner. The Charterer agrees that (i) if the Security Agent
shall notify the Charterer that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and that the Security Agent has elected to exercise the rights and remedies set forth in the Finance Documents, then the Security Agent or its designee (which may be
or include a receiver appointed in respect of the Guarantor or a person nominated by the Security Agent or a special purpose company created for the purpose of acquiring the Vessel or a third-party purchaser of the Vessel) which, in any such case,
elects to assume the Guarantor’s obligations under the Charter (the “Substitute Owner”) shall be substituted for the Guarantor under the Charter; and (ii) in such event, the Charterer shall (without prejudice to Article 1.4
below) recognise the Substitute Owner and shall continue to perform its obligations under the Charter in favor of the Substitute Owner, provided that (x) the Security Agent shall give the Charterer not less than thirty (30) days’
prior written notice of the intended transfer and details of the proposed Substitute Owner; (y) in the opinion of the Charterer (acting reasonably and without undue delay), the proposed Substitute Owner (and the third-party vessel manager to be
employed by the proposed Substitute Owner, if any) shall have the legal capacity and the financial resources and expertise to own and operate the Vessel and, without limitation, to perform the Guarantor’s obligations under the Charter; and
(z) such proposed Substitute Owner shall have undertaken to the Charterer in writing to remedy as soon as practicable any outstanding defaults of the Guarantor under the Charter. The Charterer agrees that it will, at no cost to it, enter into
such documents as may be reasonably required by the Security Agent or the Substitute Owner to give effect to any substitution to be effected in accordance with this Article 1.3 and the Security Agent agrees that all documented costs and expenses
(including legal costs) reasonably and properly incurred by the Charterer in connection with this Article 1.3 shall be for the account of the Security Agent. 

  
 80 








 1.4 Preservation of Charterer’s Rights. Notwithstanding any other
provision in this Consent, any disposal of the Vessel by the Security Agent to a Substitute Owner in accordance with Article 1.3 shall not prejudice the Charterer’s rights under the Charter accruing before or after the date of such disposal,
including, without limitation, any right that the Charterer may then have to terminate the Charter. If the Security Agent exercises its rights under Article 1.3 above to dispose of the Vessel to a Substitute Owner during the term of the Charter, the
Security Agent shall comply with the conditions set out in Article 1.1 above and shall (subject to any requirements or restrictions imposed by any applicable law in relation to disposal of the Vessel) dispose of the Vessel expressly subject to the
Charter. The Security Agent shall procure that the Substitute Owner (and any other person providing financing to the Substitute Owner for the purposes of the acquisition by the Substitute Owner of the Vessel) issues an undertaking to the Charterer
on substantially the same terms as the undertaking granted by the Security Agent in Article 1.1 above. 
 1.5 Right to
Cure. In the event of a default or breach by the Guarantor in the performance of any of its obligations under the Charter, or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition under the Charter that would immediately or with the
passage of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, enable the Charterer to suspend or terminate the Charter (a “Default”), the Charterer shall not suspend or terminate the Charter until it first gives written notice
of such Default to the Security Agent or its designee and affords such party a period of thirty (30) days to cure the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or termination rights. 

1.6 No Termination or Assignment. Except to the extent permitted in the Charter, the Charterer agrees that it will not,
without the prior written consent of the Security Agent, (i) enter into or agree to any consensual suspension, cancellation, or termination of the Charter, or (ii) assign or otherwise transfer any of its right, title or interest under the
Charter save as permitted under the Charter. 
 1.7 Replacement Agreement. In the event that the Charter is
terminated as a result of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or other similar proceeding affecting the Guarantor, the Charterer shall, at the option of the Security Agent, enter into a new agreement with the Security Agent or its transferee or
nominee (the “Replacement Owner”) on terms substantially the same as the terms of the Charter. In such event, the Security Agent (or, as the case may be, the Replacement Owner) shall comply with the provisions of Article 1.3 (x),
(y) and (z) which shall apply for the purposes of this Article 1.7 as if the words “proposed Substitute Owner” have been replaced by the words “proposed Replacement Owner”. 

1.8 No Liability. The Charterer acknowledges and agrees that neither the Security Agent nor its designees nor any of
the Finance Parties shall have any liability or obligation under the Charter as a result of this Consent, nor shall the Security Agent or its designees be obligated or required to (i) perform any of the Guarantor’s obligations under the
Charter, except during any period in which the Security Agent or its designee is a Substitute Owner under the Charter pursuant to Article 1.3 or a Replacement Owner under the Charter pursuant to Article 1.7, in which case the obligations of such
Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner shall be no more onerous than those of the Guarantor under the Charter for such period (unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Guarantor and the Security Agent or the Substitute Owner or the Replacement
Owner); or (ii) take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned under the Finance Documents. 

1.9 Guarantor’s Undertaking. The Guarantor undertakes to the Charterer that it shall not make any claim against
the Vessel and/or the Charterer arising from any transfer or novation of the Charter to the Security Agent or any Substitute Owner or from the entry into a new agreement by the Charterer with a Replacement Owner. The Security Agent acknowledges that
delivery by the Guarantor of a notice in writing to the Charterer stating that the Guarantor has no claim, and has no intention of making such a claim, against the Vessel and/or the Charterer which may arise from such transfer or novation or from
the entry into a new agreement shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any transfer, novation or new agreement. 

  
 81 








 1.10 Delivery of Notices. The Charterer shall use its reasonable
commercial efforts to deliver to the Security Agent and its designees, concurrently with the delivery thereof to the Guarantor, a copy of any notice of suspension or termination given by the Charterer to the Guarantor under the Charter. 

1.11 Delivery of Financial Statements. On or prior to the date hereof, the Charterer has delivered to the Security
Agent a copy of its annual audited financial statement (“Financial Statement”) for its most recent fiscal year. Within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the close of each of its fiscal years, the Charterer shall upon request
deliver to the Security Agent its annual audited financial statements, prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”). 

1.12 Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that the Charterer may now or hereafter have or acquire any immunity (including
sovereign immunity) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Charterer hereby waives such immunity with respect to all of its obligations under this Consent and the Charter. 

1.13 Registration of Interest. To the extent permitted by applicable law and by the Registrar of Ships for vessels
registered on the Commonwealth of The Bahamas Ship Register, the terms of the undertaking contained in Article 1.1 above, shall be included in the Mortgage and shall form part of the terms and conditions of the Mortgage. Upon registration of the
Mortgage, the Security Agent agrees to request that the Registrar of Ships for vessels registered on the Commonwealth of The Bahamas Ship Register make a note of such undertaking in the Vessel’s register. 

ARTICLE 2. – PAYMENTS UNDER THE CHARTER 

The Charterer shall pay all amounts payable by it to the Guarantor under the Charter in the manner required by the Charter directly into the
account specified on Exhibit A hereto, or to such other person or account as shall be specified from time to time by the Security Agent to the Charterer in writing in accordance with Article 4.1. Should the Charterer receive a notice from the
Security Agent asking the Charterer to make payments to an alternative account in accordance with this Article 2, the Guarantor shall pay to the Charterer any net increase in payment costs incurred by the Charterer as a result of making such
payments into such alternative account. 
 ARTICLE 3. – REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE CHARTERER 

The Charterer makes the following representations and warranties to the Security Agent as at the date hereof.

investigations of any kind (including arbitration proceedings) to which the Charterer is a party or is subject, or by which it or any of its properties are bound, that if adversely determined to or against the Charterer, could reasonably be expected
to materially and adversely affect the ability of the Charterer to execute and deliver the Charter , the Novation Agreement and this Consent or to perform its obligations thereunder or hereunder.
