	 	(i)	the lower of A or B, where:

Value Ratio after the removal of the Secured Vessel being the same as it was immediately prior to its removal, and

on or after that FATCA Application Date; 

 the Borrower may, whilst the circumstance giving rise to the
requirement for that increase or indemnification or FATCA Deduction continues, give the Facility Agent notice of cancellation of the Commitment(s) of that Lender and its intention to procure the repayment of that Lender’s participation in the
Loan or give the Facility Agent notice of its intention to replace that Lender in accordance with paragraph (d) below.

fund or other entity selected by the Borrower which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of the transferring Lender in accordance with Clause 28.2 for a purchase price in cash or other cash payment payable at the
time of the transfer equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in the Loan and all accrued interest, Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents. 


 

	 	(e)	The replacement of a Lender pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall be subject to the following conditions:

	 	(ii)	neither the Facility Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to find a replacement Lender; 


 

	 	(iii)	in no event shall the Lender replaced under paragraph (d) above be required to pay or surrender any of the fees received by such Lender pursuant to the Finance
Documents; and 

  

	 	(iv)	the Lender shall only be obliged to transfer its rights and obligations pursuant to paragraph (d) above once it is satisfied that it has complied with all
necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to that transfer. 


  
 29 










	 	(f)	A Lender shall perform the checks described in paragraph (e)(iv) above as soon as reasonably practicable following delivery of a notice referred to in paragraph

	 	(ii)	LIBOR; and 

  

	 	(iii)	Mandatory Cost (if any), 


(together, the Interest Rate). 
  

	 	(b)	Interest shall be calculated by reference to the actual number of days elapsed and on the basis of a year of 360 days. Interest shall accrue from and including the
first day of each Term to but excluding the last day of such Term. 

  

	7.2	Payment of interest 


Except where it is provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Borrower must pay accrued interest on the Loan on the last day of each
Term. 
  

	7.3	Interest on overdue amounts 

  

	 	(a)	If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under the Finance Documents, it must immediately on demand by the Facility Agent pay interest on the overdue
amount from its due date up to the date of actual payment, both before, on and after judgment. 

  

	 	(b)	If the overdue amount is a principal amount of the Loan or is an amount accruing in respect of interest on the Loan and becomes due and payable prior to the last day of
its current Term, then: 

  

	 	(i)	the first Term for that overdue amount will be the unexpired portion of that Term and the rate of interest on the overdue amount for that first Term will be two
(2) per cent. per annum above the Interest Rate; and 

  

	 	(ii)	thereafter, any subsequent Term for that overdue amount shall be selected by the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders, acting reasonably)
who may select successive Terms of any duration up to six (6) months, and the rate of interest on the overdue amount will be two (2) per cent. per annum above the Interest Rate. 


  
 30 









 After the expiry of the first Term for that overdue amount, the rate on the overdue amount
will be calculated in accordance with paragraph (c) below. 
  

	 	(c)	In respect of any amounts outstanding other than in accordance with paragraph (b) above, interest on such overdue amount is payable at a rate determined by the
Facility Agent to be two (2) per cent. per annum above the Interest Rate. For this purpose, the Facility Agent may (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders, acting reasonably) select successive Terms of any duration of up to six
(6) months. 

  

	 	(d)	Interest (if unpaid) on an overdue amount will be compounded with that overdue amount at the end of each of its Terms but will remain immediately due and payable.


  

	7.4	Notification of rates of interest 

 The Facility Agent must promptly notify each Party of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 
  

	8.	TERMS 

  

	8.1	Selection

right of that Lender, or as the case may be, the Facility Agent to obtain any other benefit, relief or allowance which may be available to it), such amount, if any, as that Lender, or as the case may be, the Facility Agent shall determine (acting in
its absolute discretion and in accordance with its internal policies), will leave that Lender, or as the case may be, the Facility Agent in no better and no worse position than it would have been in if the deduction or withholding had not been

	 	(b)	Without affecting the responsibility of the Borrower for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms that
it: 

  

	 	(i)	has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of all risks arising under or in connection with the Finance Documents (including the financial
condition and affairs of the Borrower and its related entities and the nature and extent of any recourse against any Party or its assets); and

against the Facility Agent or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in connection with any Finance Document. Any officer, employee or agent of the Facility Agent may rely on this Subclause and enforce its
terms under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

	 	(ii)	is aware of the non-payment of any principal or interest or any fee payable to a Lender under this Agreement, 


it must promptly notify the Lenders. 
  

	21.11	Information 

  

	 	(a)	The Facility Agent must promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to the Facility Agent by a Party for that

	 	(i)	either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the risks arising under or in connection with the
Finance Documents (including any information relating to the financial condition or affairs of the Borrower or its related entities or the nature or extent of recourse against any Party or its assets) whether coming into its possession before, on or
after the date of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	(ii)	unless specifically requested to do so by a Lender in accordance with a Finance Document, to request any certificate or other document from the Borrower.



  
 79 










	 	(d)	In acting as the Facility Agent, the agency division of the Facility Agent is treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information
acquired by the Facility Agent which, in its opinion, is acquired by it otherwise than in its capacity as the Facility Agent may be treated as confidential by the Facility Agent and will not be treated as information possessed by the Facility Agent
in its capacity as such.

	 	(b)	The Facility Agent may deduct from any amount received by it for a Lender any amount due to the Facility Agent from that Lender under a Finance Document but unpaid.


  

	21.13	Compliance 

 Each
Administrative Party may refrain from doing anything (including disclosing any information) which might, based on the reasonable opinion of its legal counsel, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any
person, and may do anything which, in its opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation. 
  

	21.14	Resignation of the Facility Agent 

  

	 	(a)	The Facility Agent may resign by giving written notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, in which case the Majority Lenders shall appoint a successor facility agent of
which the Borrower approves, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 

  

	 	(b)	If no successor Facility Agent has been appointed under paragraph (a) above within thirty (30) days after notice of resignation was given, the Facility Agent
may appoint a successor Facility Agent. 

  

	 	(c)	The resignation of the Facility Agent and the appointment of any successor facility agent will both become effective only when the successor facility agent
(i) notifies all the Parties that it accepts its appointment and (ii) confirms that it is satisfied that the rights under the Security Documents have been assigned or transferred to it. On giving the notification and confirmation, the
successor facility agent will succeed to the position of the Facility Agent and the term Facility Agent will mean the successor facility agent. 


 

	 	(d)	The retiring Facility Agent must, at its own cost, make available to the successor Facility Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the
successor Facility Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents.

 80 










	 	(f)	The Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Facility Agent, require it to resign under paragraph (a) above. 


 

	 	(g)	The Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent

	 	(i)	the Facility Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 10.8 (FATCA information) and 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 Agent pursuant to Clause 10.8 (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; 

 and (in each case) 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 that Lender, by notice to the Facility Agent, requires it to resign. 
  

	21.15	Relationship with Lenders

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


 

	 	(iv)	the accuracy of any statement or information (whether written or oral) made in or supplied in connection with any Finance Document, 


and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded. 
  

	 	(b)	Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender that it: 

  

	 	(i)	has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of all risks arising under or in connection with the Finance Documents (including the financial
condition and affairs of the Borrower and its related entities and the nature and extent of any recourse against any Party or its assets) in connection with its participation in this Agreement; and 


 

	 	(ii)	has not relied exclusively on any information supplied to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document. 


 

	 	(c)	Nothing in any Finance Document requires an Existing Lender to: 

  

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


  

	28.5	Costs resulting from change of Lender or Facility Office 

 If: 
  

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


 

	 	(b)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date of assignment, transfer or change occurs, the Borrower would be obliged to pay a Tax Payment or an Increased Cost,



  
 90 









 then, unless the assignment, transfer or change is made by a Lender to mitigate any
circumstances giving rise to a Tax Payment, Increased Cost or a right to be prepaid and/or cancelled by reason of illegality, the Borrower need only pay that Tax Payment or Increased Cost to the same extent that it would have been obliged to if no
assignment, transfer or change had occurred. 
  

	28.6	Changes to the Reference Banks 

 If a Reference Bank (or, if a Reference Bank is not a Lender, the Lender of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Lender, the Facility Agent must (in consultation with the Borrower) appoint another
Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender to replace that Reference Bank. 
  

	29.	DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION 


Each Finance Party may disclose such information as that Finance Party shall consider appropriate in respect of information supplied to
it, by or on behalf of the Borrower, the Seaspan Group, the Charterers or the Finance Documents to: 
  

	 	(a)	in the case of any other Finance Party, any of its Affiliates; or 

  

	 	(b)	any other person who has not been objected to by the Borrower pursuant to Clause 28.2(a)(iii) (Assignments and transfers by Lenders), to (or through) whom an
Existing Lender assigns or transfers (or may potentially assign or transfer) all or any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or with (or through) whom a Lender enters into (or may potentially enter into) any sub-participation in
relation to, or any other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to, this Agreement or the Borrower; or 

  

	 	(c)	any person to whom, and to the extent that, information is required to be disclosed by any Applicable Law; or 


 

	 	(d)	any other Finance Party; or 

  

	 	(e)	to its and the Borrower’ professional advisors, 


  
 91 









 PROVIDED ALWAYS that, in relation to paragraph (b) above, the person to whom the
information is to be given has entered into a Confidentiality Undertaking. Except as provided in this Clause, a Lender may not disclose any information about the Borrower, the Seaspan Group, the Charterers or the Finance Documents to any person.

  

	30.	SET-OFF 

 A Finance Party
may set off any matured obligation owed to it by the Borrower under the Finance Documents against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to the Borrower, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of
either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, that Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off. 

 

	31.	PRO RATA SHARING 

  

	31.1	Redistribution 

 If any
amount owing by the Borrower under this Agreement to a Lender (the recovering Lender) is discharged by payment, set-off or any other manner other than through the Facility Agent under this Agreement (a recovery), then: 

 

	 	(a)	the recovering Lender must, within three (3) Business Days, supply details of the recovery to the Facility Agent; 


 

	 	(b)	the Facility Agent must calculate whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Lender would have received if the recovery had been received by
the Facility Agent under this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(c)	the recovering Lender must pay to the Facility Agent an amount equal to such excess (the redistribution). 


 

	31.2	Effect of redistribution 

  

	 	(a)	The Facility Agent must treat a redistribution as if it were a payment by the Borrower under this Agreement and distribute it among the Lenders, other than the
recovering Lender, accordingly. 

  

	 	(b)	When the Facility Agent makes a distribution under paragraph (a) above, the recovering Lender will be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties which have
shared in that redistribution. 

  

	 	(c)	If and to the extent that the recovering Lender is not able to rely on any rights of subrogation under paragraph (b) above, the Borrower will owe the recovering
Lender a debt which is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged. 

  

	 	(d)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	a recovering Lender must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to the Borrower; and 


 

	 	(ii)	the recovering Lender has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery, 

 each Finance Party must reimburse the recovering Lender all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party, together with interest for the period while it held the
re-distribution. In this event, the subrogation in paragraph (b) above will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement. 

  
 92 










	31.3	Exceptions 


Notwithstanding any other term of this Clause, a recovering Lender need not pay a redistribution to the extent that: 

 

	 	(a)	it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the Borrower in the amount of the redistribution; or 


 

	 	(b)	it would be sharing with another Finance Party any amount which the recovering Lender has received or recovered as a result of legal or arbitration proceedings, where:


  

	 	(i)	the recovering Lender notified the Facility Agent of those proceedings; and 


 

	 	(ii)	the other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those proceedings but did not do so or did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings as soon as
reasonably practicable after receiving notice of them. 

  

	32.	SEVERABILITY 

 If a term
of a Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect: 
  

	 	(a)	the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other term of the Finance Documents; or 


 

	 	(b)	the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other term of the Finance Documents. 


 

	33.	COUNTERPARTS 

 Each
Finance Document may be executed in any number of counterparts and by facsimile provided that original signed copies are provided within a reasonable period of time thereafter. This has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were
on a single copy of the Finance Document. 
  

	34.	NOTICES 

  

	34.1	In writing 

  

	 	(a)	Any communication in connection with a Finance Document must be in writing and, unless otherwise stated, may be given in person, by post, fax, e-mail or by any other
