	2.
	Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, terms defined in the Credit Agreement shall have the same meaning in this Agreement and a reference to a Clause is a reference to a Clause of the Credit Agreement. The principles of construction set out in Clause 1.2 (Construction) of the Credit Agreement apply to this Agreement as though they were set out in full in this Agreement.


		
	3.
	We refer to Clause 2.2 (Additional Facilities) of the Credit Agreement.


		
	4.
	This Agreement will take effect on the date on which the Facility Agent notifies UPC Broadband and the Additional Facility AK Lender that it has received the documents and evidence set out 









in Schedule 2 to this Agreement, in each case in form and substance satisfactory to it or, as the case may be, the requirement to provide any of such documents or evidence has been waived by the Facility Agent on behalf of the Additional Facility AK Lender (the Effective Date).
		
	5.
	The Additional Facility AK Lender agrees:


		
	(a)
	to become a party to and to be bound by the terms of the Credit Agreement as a Lender in accordance with Clause 2.2 (Additional Facilities) of the Credit Agreement; and


		
	(b)
	to become a party to the Security Deed as Lender and to observe, perform and be bound by the terms and provisions of the Security Deed in the capacity of Lender in accordance with Clause 9.3 (Transfers by Lenders) of the Security Deed.


		
	6.
	The Additional Facility Commitment in relation to the Additional Facility AK Lender (for the purpose of the definition of Additional Facility Commitment in Clause 1.1 (Definitions) of the Credit Agreement) is its Facility AK Commitment.


		
	7.
	The Borrower in relation to Facility AK is UPC Financing.


		
	8.
	(a)     Provided that any upsizing of Facility AK permitted under this Clause 8 will not breach any term of the Credit Agreement, Facility AK may be upsized by any amount, by the signing of one or more further Additional Facility AK Accession Agreements, that specify (along with the other terms specified therein) UPC Financing as the sole Borrower and which specify Additional Facility AK Commitments denominated in euro, to be drawn in euro, with the same Final Maturity Date and Margin as specified in this Additional Facility AK Accession Agreement.


		
	(b)
	For the purposes of this Clause 8 (unless otherwise specified), references to Facility AK Advances shall include Advances made under any such further Additional Facility AK Accession Agreement.


		
	(c)
	Where any Facility AK Advance has not already been consolidated with any other Facility AK Advance, on the last day of any Interest Period for such Facility AK Advance, that Facility AK Advance will be consolidated with any other Facility AK Advance which has an Interest Period ending on the same day as that Facility AK Advance, and all such Facility AK Advances will then be treated as one Advance.


		
	9.
	Facility AK may be drawn by one Advance on the date of this Agreement and such date will constitute the Availability Period for Facility AK. No more than one Request may be made in respect of Facility AK under the Credit Agreement and such Request may only be in a principal amount of the Additional Facility Commitment in relation to Facility AK as set out in Clause 6 above.


		
	10.
	The Facility AK Advance will be used for general corporate purposes and working capital purposes, including the repayment or prepayment of existing indebtedness.


		
	11.
	The Final Maturity Date in respect of Facility AK is 15 January, 2027. Any outstanding Advance under Facility AK shall be repaid in full on the Final Maturity Date.


		
	12.
	The interest rate for Facility AK will be a fixed rate of 4.000 per cent. per annum. This will be calculated in accordance with Clause 8.1 (Interest rate) of the Credit Agreement as being the sum of EURIBOR, the applicable Margin and the Mandatory Costs (if applicable), where, in order to achieve the fixed rate referred to above, the applicable Margin will be, with respect to any Interest Period:



2






		
	(a)
	4.000 per cent. per annum, calculated on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months;


minus
		
	(b)
	the sum of EURIBOR plus the Mandatory Costs (if applicable) for such Interest Period.


For the avoidance of doubt, for the purpose of this calculation, the applicable Margin may be a negative number. Further, the interest rate for Facility AK will never exceed 4.000 per cent. per annum (save to the extent that Clause 8.8 (Default interest) may apply).
		
	13.
	Pursuant to Clause 8.2 (Selection of Interest Periods) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby notifies the Facility Agent that while the Facility AK Advance is outstanding it selects six months for all Interest Periods in relation to that Advance.


		
	14.
	Upon the delivery by the Facility Agent of a notice of cancellation of Facility AK pursuant to Clause 7.4(a)(v)(B) (Change of Control) of the Credit Agreement following the occurrence of a Change of Control (as defined under Clause 7.4 (Change of Control) of the Credit Agreement), UPC Broadband shall make a payment to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) in an amount equal to 1 per cent. of the principal amount of the outstanding Facility AK Advance. Such payment shall be due and payable by UPC Broadband to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) on the actual date of such mandatory prepayment.


		
	15.
	Subject to Clause 18 of this Agreement, at any time prior to 15 January, 2021, upon the occurrence of any voluntary prepayment of the Facility AK Advance by UPC Broadband pursuant to Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment) of the Credit Agreement in an amount not to exceed 10% of the original principal amount of the Facility AK Advance during each twelve-month period commencing on the date of this Agreement, UPC Broadband shall make a payment to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) in an amount (the Prepayment Premium) equal to 3.000% of the principal amount of the Facility AK Advance being prepaid, plus accrued and unpaid interest then due on the amount of the Facility AK Advance prepaid to the due date of prepayment. Such payment shall be due and payable by UPC Broadband to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) on the actual date of such prepayment. Prior to 15 January, 2021, to the extent that during any twelve-month period commencing on the date of this Agreement, the principal amount of the Facility AK Advance prepaid in any one or more voluntary prepayments is greater than an amount equal to 10% of the original principal amount of the Facility AK Advance (any such amount, the Excess Early Redemption Proceeds), UPC Broadband will apply the Excess Early Redemption Proceeds to a voluntary prepayment of the Facility AK Advance as described in Clause 16 below.


		
	16.       (a) 
	Subject to Clause 18 of this Agreement, at any time prior to 15 January, 2021, upon the occurrence of a voluntary prepayment of all or any part of the outstanding Facility AK Advance by UPC Broadband pursuant to Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment) of the Credit Agreement with any Excess Early Redemption Proceeds, UPC Broadband shall make a payment to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) in an amount equal to the Make-Whole Amount (as defined below) (calculated as of a date no more than three Business Days prior to the date of the relevant Cancellation Notice) as of the due date of such prepayment.

	the present value at such prepayment date of (i) the total amount that would be payable to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Additional Facility AK Lender) if all or such portion of the outstanding Facility AK Advance were prepaid pursuant to Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment) of the Credit Agreement on 15 January, 2021 (including the outstanding principal amount of such Advance and the Additional Amount (as defined below) required under this Clause 16, but excluding accrued interest and any other amounts payable under the Credit Agreement in connection with such prepayment) plus (ii) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due in respect of all or such portion of the outstanding Facility AK Advance through 15 January, 2021 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the prepayment date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Bund Rate (as defined below) as of such prepayment date plus 50 basis points; over

	(2)
	“Comparable German Bund Price” means, with respect to any relevant date, the average of all Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations for such date (which, in any event, must include at least two such quotations), after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations, or if
