	7.8
	Application of prepayments

	INTEREST


		
	8.1
	Calculation of interest


The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:
(a)    Margin; and
(b)    in relation to any Loan in Base Currency, EURIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in the Optional Currency, LIBOR. 
		
	8.2
	Payment of interest


The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the dates falling at six-Monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period).


33









		
	8.3
	Default interest


(a)    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 which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is one per cent. (1%) per annum higher than the rate which 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 Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Agent.
(b)    If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:
		
	(i)
	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


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


(c)    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.
		
	8.4

	8.5
	Margin adjustment




34









		
	8.5.1
	The Margin for each Loan in respect of any Interest Period shall be adjusted in order to correspond to the percentage per annum set out below in the applicable column for a Loan denominated in the Base Currency or in the Optional Currency opposite the range in which the Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio falls as from the first day of the Interest Period during which the Compliance Certificate has been received by the Agent (provided that the Compliance Certificate has been received at least five (5) Business Days prior to the expiry of the relevant Interest Period) or as from the first day of the next Interest Period if the Compliance Certificate has been received by the Agent less than five (5) Business Days prior to the expiry of the relevant Interest Period (and for the first time in respect of the first Interest Period for the first Utilisation, based on the unaudited consolidated financial statements of the Group as at 30 September 2017 or any more recent Accounts received by the Agent together with the Compliance Certificate).


	
			
	Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio
	Loan drawn in the Base Currency (EUR)
	Loan drawn in the Optional Currency (USD)

	Greater than or equal to 3.00:1
	2.35%
	2.60%

	Less than 3.00:1 but greater than or equal to 2.50:1
	2.15%
	2.40%

	1.75%
	2.0%

	Less than 1.50:1
	1.45%
	1.70%




		
	8.5.2
	If the Compliance Certificate in relation to the consolidated annual unaudited financial statements (or, once the Borrower's financial statements are audited, consolidated annual audited financial statements) of the Borrower shows that the Margin should have been, but was not, increased, the Margin will be re-calculated retrospectively by reference to those consolidated annual unaudited (or consolidated annual audited) financial statements (as applicable) and appropriate adjustment payments will be required to be made (it being specified that such provision shall not apply to any Lender to the extent that it no longer holds a participation in the Facility both at the time to which the adjustment relates and at the date the adjustment is to be made).


		
	8.5.3
	If the consolidated annual unaudited financial statements (or, once the Borrower's financial statements are audited, consolidated annual audited financial statements) of the Borrower show that the Margin should have been, but was not decreased, the amounts payable by the Borrower at the end of the then current interest period shall be reduced so as to put the Lenders and the Borrower in the position they would have been in had the correct margin been applied (it being specified that such provision shall not apply to any Lender to the extent that it no longer holds a participation in the Facility at the date the adjustment is to be made).


		
	8.5.4
	No decrease in the Margin shall take effect if an Event of Default has occurred. If an Event of Default occurs and for so long as it is continuing, the Margin applicable to a Loan shall immediately be (if it is not already) the highest percentage per annum set out above for such a Loan, until the time when such Event of Default is waived or remedied.


		
	8.5.5
	For the purposes of this Clause 8.5, Margin adjustments shall not be limited to one step-down or step-up at a time.

the Interest Period of that Loan shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable Fallback Interest Period and the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the definition of "LIBOR".
(c)    Shortened Interest Period and Historic Screen Rate:  If the Interest Period of a Loan is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR or, if applicable EURIBOR for:

the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Historic Screen Rate for that Loan.
(d)    Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historic Screen Rate:  If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historic Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of the Loan, the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historic Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan.

	Market disruption


If before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in a Loan exceed thirty five per cent (35%) of that Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from the interbank market for the relevant currency would be in excess of EURIBOR or, if applicable, LIBOR then Clause 10.3 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for the relevant Interest Period.

the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan for that Interest Period shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph ‎(a) above, to be EURIBOR or, in relation to a Loan in dollars, LIBOR.
(e)    If this Clause ‎10.3 applies pursuant to Clause ‎10.1 (Unavailability of Screen Rate) but any Lender does not supply a quotation by the time specified in paragraph ‎(a)‎(ii) above the rate of interest shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Lenders.

In addition, any Finance Party, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in 12.6(b)(i), (ii) and (iv) below) shall not be required if in the Finance Party's reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Finance Party to any material

40









withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
		
	(iv)
	if a payment made to a Finance Party under any Finance Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Finance Party shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Finance Party has complied with such Finance Party's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.

	12.7
	Treatment of Certain Refunds.


If any Finance Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to Clause 12 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Clause 12), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Clause with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Clause 12.7 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Clause 12.7 in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Clause 12.7 the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other person.
		
	12.8
	Survival.  


Each Party's obligations under this Clause 12.8 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Finance Document.

SECTION 9
CHANGES TO PARTIES



		
	22.
	CHANGES TO THE LENDERS


		
	22.1
	Assignments and transfers by the Lenders


Subject to this Clause 22, a Lender (the "Existing Lender") may: 
(a)    assign any of its rights; or
(b)    transfer by novation any of its rights and obligations,
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 (the "New Lender").
		
	22.2
	Borrower consent


(a)    The consent of the Borrower is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, unless the assignment or transfer is: 
		
	(i)
	to another Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender; or


		
	(ii)
	made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing.


(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 (5) Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time.

	Other conditions of assignment or transfer


(a)    An assignment will only be effective on:
		
	(i)
	receipt by the Agent (whether in the Assignment Agreement or otherwise) of written confirmation from the New Lender (in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent) that the New Lender will assume the same obligations to the other Finance Parties as it would have been under if it had been an Original Lender; and


		
	(ii)
	performance by the Agent of all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

(c)    If:
		
	(i)
	a Lender changes its Facility Office; and


		
	(ii)
	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 12 (Tax gross-up and indemnities) or Clause 13 (Increased Costs),




68









then the Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the change had not occurred.
(d)    Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment 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.

	(i)
	has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor 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 each Obligor 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 22; or 


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

	22.6
	Procedure for transfer


(a)    Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 22.2 (Borrower consent) and Clause 22.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, 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 and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.
(b)    The Agent shall only be 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" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.  
(c)    Subject to Clause 22.10 (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 each of the Obligors and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents shall be cancelled (being the "Discharged Rights and Obligations");


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


		
	(iii)
	the Agent, the Security Agent, the Mandated Lead Arrangers, the New Lender and other Lenders shall 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 the Agent, the Security Agent, the Mandated Lead Arrangers 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".


		
	22.7
	Procedure for assignment


(a)    Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 22.2 (Borrower consent) and Clause 22.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer) an assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, 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 Agent shall only be 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" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender.
(c)    Subject to Clause 22.10 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:


70









		
	(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 each Obligor 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; and


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


(d)    Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 22.7 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the Borrower or unless in accordance with Clause 22.6 (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 Clause 22.2 (Borrower consent) and Clause 22.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer).
		
	22.8
	Copy of Transfer Certificate, Assignment 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.
		
	22.9
	Security over Lenders' rights


In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 22, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge, assign 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:
(a)    any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank; and
(b)    any charge, assignment 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 charge, assignment or Security shall:
		
	(i)
	release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, assignment or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or


		
	(ii)
	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.


		
	22.10
	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 pursuant to Clause 22.6 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 22.7 (Procedure 


71









for 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:


(b)    when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and
(c)    the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 22.10, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.
(d)    In this Clause 22.10 references to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.
(e)    An Existing Lender which retains the right to the Accrued Amounts pursuant to this Clause 22.10 but which does not have a Commitment shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of ascertaining whether the agreement of any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents. 
		
	22.11
	Register


The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement and Increase Confirmation delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the "Register").  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

	(i)
	no Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of a Default arising under Clause 21.1 (Non-payment));

(f)    The Agent may act in relation to the Finance Documents through its officers, employees and agents.

75









(h)    Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Agent nor the Mandated Lead Arrangers are obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would, or might in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation (including, but not limited to, Sanctions) or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality.
(i)    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.

In no event shall the Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, 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.


77









		
	24.11
	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 (3) 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 27.10 (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 an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document).
		
	24.12
	Resignation of the Agent


(a)    The Agent may resign and appoint one of its Affiliates acting through an office 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.
(c)    If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Agent (and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred or is continuing, after consultation with the Borrower,) may appoint a successor Agent.
(d)    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 (c) 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 24 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.
(e)    The retiring Agent shall 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 (3) 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.
(f)    The Agent's resignation notice shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor.
(g)    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 (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 14.3 (Indemnity to the Agent) and this Clause 24 (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.


78









(h)    After consultation with the Borrower, the Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above.
(i)    The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) above) if on or after the date which is three (3) 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 12.6(b)(iv) 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 12.6(b)(iv) 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.
		
	24.13
	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.
		
	24.14
	Relationship with the Lenders


(a)    Subject to Clause 22.10 (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 


79









communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under Clause 29.5 (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 29.2 (Addresses) and paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 29.5 (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.
		
	24.15
	Credit appraisal by the Lenders


Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms to the Agent and the Mandated Lead 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;

(d)    the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of the Information Memorandum 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.
		
	24.16
	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.
		
	24.17
	Role of the Security Agent


(a)    The Security Agent declares that it acts as agent of the Beneficiaries (as such term is defined in the French Pledge) for the purpose of the Transaction Security, acting in such capacity in its name but on behalf of the Beneficiaries.

		
	25.
	CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE FINANCE PARTIES


No provision of this Agreement will:

	SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES 


		
	26.1
	Payments to Finance Parties 


If a Finance Party (a "Recovering Finance Party") receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 27 (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 (3) 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 27 (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 (3) 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 27.5 (Partial payments).
		
	26.2
	Redistribution of payments


The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the "Sharing Finance Parties") in accordance with Clause 27.5 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.
		
	26.3
	Recovering Finance Party's rights


On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 26.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor 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 that Obligor.
		
	26.4
	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


81









(b)    as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor. 
		
	26.5
	Exceptions


(a)    This Clause 26 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor.
(b)    A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:
		
	(i)
	it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and


		
	(ii)
	that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

SECTION 11
ADMINISTRATION



		
	27.
	PAYMENT MECHANICS


		
	27.1
	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) and with such bank as the Agent, in each case, specifies.
		
	27.2
	Distributions by the Agent


Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 27.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 27.4 (Clawback and pre-funding) 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).
		
	27.3
	Distributions to an Obligor


The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 28 (Set-off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.
		
	27.4
	Clawback and pre-funding


(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)    Unless paragraph (c) below applies, 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.
(c)    If the Agent is willing to make available amounts for the account of the Borrower before receiving funds from the Lenders then if and to the extent that the Agent does so but it proves to be the case that it does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to the Borrower:


83









		
	(i)
	the Borrower to whom that sum was made available shall on demand refund it to the Agent; and


		
	(ii)
	the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if that Lender fails to do so, the Borrower to whom that sum was made available, shall on demand pay to the Agent the amount (as certified by the Agent) which will indemnify the Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before receiving those funds from that Lender.


		
	27.5
	Partial payments


(a)    If the Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by the Borrower under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of the Borrower under the Finance Documents in the following order:
		
	(i)
	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid amount owing to the Agent and the Security 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 paragraphs (a)(ii) to (a)(iv) above.
(c)    Paragraphs (a) and (b) above will override any appropriation made by an Obligor.
		
	27.6
	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.
		
	27.7
	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 Unpaid Sum under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal or Unpaid Sum at the rate payable on the original due date.
		
	27.8
	Currency of account


(a)    Subject to paragraphs (b) to (e) below, the Base Currency is the currency of account and payment for any sum due from the Borrower under any Finance Document.
(b)    A repayment of a Loan or Unpaid Sum or a part of a Loan or Unpaid Sum shall be made in the currency in which that Loan or Unpaid Sum is denominated, pursuant to this Agreement, on its due date. 


84









(c)    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.
(e)    Any amount expressed to be payable in a currency other than the Base Currency or the Optional Currency shall be paid in that other currency.
		
	27.9
	Change of currency


(a)    Unless otherwise prohibited by law, if more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time recognised by the central bank of any country as the lawful currency of that country, then:
		
	(i)
	any reference in the Finance Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Finance Documents in, the currency of that country shall be translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country designated by the Agent (after consultation with the Borrower); and


		
	(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.
		
	27.10
	Disruption to payment systems etc.


If either the Agent determines (in its discretion) that a Disruption Event has occurred or the Agent is notified by the Borrower that a Disruption Event has occurred:

(b)    the Agent shall not be obliged to consult with the Borrower in relation to any changes mentioned in paragraph (a) above 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 paragraph (a) above 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 33 (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 


85









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 27.10; and
(f)    the Agent shall notify the Finance Parties of all changes agreed pursuant to paragraph (d) above.
