| | (i) | the first Term for that overdue amount will be the unexpired portion of that Term; and

| | (ii) | the rate of interest on the overdue amount for that first Term will be 1 per cent. per annum above the rate then payable on that Loan.

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



|(d) | Default 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.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12.4 | Tax Credit
|---- | ----------



|(a) | If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------



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



| | (ii) | the relevant Finance Party has used that Tax Credit,
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------

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



|(b) | If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party is a Treaty Lender, that Finance Party shall, in the ordinary course of its dealings
with HMRC, take reasonable steps to obtain from HMRC payment of any amounts to which it may be entitled under the terms of
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 41



---

| | any applicable Treaty in respect of any Tax Deduction from payments to it under any Finance Document and that Finance Party shall pay to the Obligor an amount equal to any such payment received from HMRC (after
deducting any reasonable expenses incurred in obtaining it).
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(c) | No Finance Party shall be obliged to take any such steps as a referred to in paragraph (b) above which may prejudice its right to obtain any other relief or allowance otherwise available to it or to disclose to any
party to a Finance Document any information regarding its Tax affairs and computations.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12.5 | Lender Status Confirmation

|--- | ------------------------



|(b) | a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------



|(c) | a Treaty Lender.
|--- | ----------------

If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 12.5 then such
New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Facility Agent which category applies (and the Facility Agent, upon receipt of such
notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 12.5.



|12.6 | Stamp taxes

The Company must pay and indemnify each Finance Party against any U.K. stamp duty, U.K.
registration Tax or other similar U.K. Tax payable in connection with the entry into, performance or enforcement of any Finance Document, except for any such U.K. Tax payable in connection with the entry into of a Transfer Certificate by a Lender.

|---- | -----------------



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



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



Page 42



---

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



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



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



|(d) | Any reference in this Clause 12.7 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to
the representative member of such group at such time (the term representative member to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



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

|(a) | Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Finance Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party:
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | confirm to that other Party and the Facility Agent whether it is:
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| | (A) | a FATCA Exempt Party; or
| | --- | ------------------------



| | (B) | not a FATCA Exempt Party; and
| | --- | -----------------------------



| | (ii) | supply to that other Party and the Facility Agent such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable passthru payment percentage or other information required
under the U.S. 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.
| | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | If a Finance 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 Finance
Party shall notify that other Party and the Facility Agent reasonably promptly.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 43



---

|(c) | Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | any law or regulation;
| | --- | ----------------------



| | (ii) | any fiduciary duty; or
| | ---- | ----------------------



| | (iii) | any duty of confidentiality.
| | ----- | ----------------------------



|(d) | If a Finance Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph
(c) above applies), then:
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | if that Finance Party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such Finance Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | if that Finance Party failed to confirm its applicable passthru payment percentage then such Finance Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable
passthru payment percentage is 100 per cent.,
| | ---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

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



|12.9 | FATCA Deduction
|---- | ---------------



|(a) | Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be 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.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction) notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in
addition, shall notify the Company, the Facility Agent and the other Finance Parties.

|16.1 | Guarantee and indemnity
|---- | -----------------------

Each Guarantor jointly and severally (if there is more than one Guarantor) and
irrevocably and unconditionally:



|(a) | guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each Obligor of all its payment obligations under the Finance Documents;
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | undertakes with each Finance Party that, whenever an Obligor does not pay any amount when due under any Finance Document, that Guarantor must immediately on demand by the Facility Agent pay that amount as if it were the
principal obligor;
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(c) | agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on
demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would
have been due. The amount payable by a Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 16 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee; and
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | agrees that:
|--- | ------------



| | (i) | this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection;
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------



Page 49



---

| | (ii) | its obligations under this guarantee are independent of the validity or enforceability of any or all of the obligations of any or all of the Obligors; and
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (iii) | a separate action may be brought and prosecuted against that Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any or all of the Obligors.
| | ----- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|16.2 | Continuing guarantee
|---- | --------------------

This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance
of all sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. This guarantee will enure to the benefit of any New Lender (as defined in Clause 28 (Changesto the
Parties)) to which has been assigned or transferred (including by way of novation) any or all of the rights and/or obligation of a Lender under this Agreement.



|16.3 | Reinstatement
|---- | -------------

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any
Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation, administration or
otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 16 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

|(f) | 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

|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | entitled to or liable for any payment due under any Finance Document on that day; and
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the consent of the Company is required for any assignment or transfer to
a New Lender.

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.

| | (ii) | support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non performance by any Obligor of its obligations under any Finance Document or otherwise.

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

then the Obligor 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, except that this paragraph shall not apply:



| | (i) | if the assignment, transfer or change is made by a Lender to mitigate any circumstances giving rise to the Tax Payment, Increased Cost or right to be prepaid and/or cancelled by reason of illegality; or

amendments to Clause 12 (Taxes) to take into account the jurisdiction of incorporation of that Additional Obligor.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | If one of the Subsidiaries of the Company is to become an Additional Obligor, then the Company must (following consultation with the Facility Agent) deliver to the Facility Agent the relevant documents and evidence
listed in Part C of Schedule 2 (Conditionsprecedent documents).
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 82

|(c) | The relevant Subsidiary will become an Additional Obligor when the Facility Agent notifies the other Finance Parties and the Company that it has received (or waived receipt of) all of the documents and evidence referred
to in paragraph (b) above in form and substance satisfactory to it. The Facility Agent must give this notification as soon as reasonably practicable.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(d) | Delivery of an Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Company, to the Facility Agent constitutes confirmation by that Subsidiary and the Company that the Repeating Representations are then
correct.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(e) | Clause 16 (Guaranteeand Indemnity) will be amended to the extent the Facility Agent (acting reasonably and after consultation with the Company) determines is necessary to reflect any requirement under the
law of the jurisdiction of any Additional Obligor to limit the guarantee to be provided by that Additional Obligor.

| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | no amount owed by that Obligor under this Agreement is still outstanding.

outstanding principal amount of that Lenders participation in the outstanding Loans and all accrued interest and fees and other amounts payable to that Lender under this Agreement.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any charge, assignment or other Security Interest granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued by that Lender as

except that no such charge, assignment or Security Interest shall:

after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of a Term):



|(a) | 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 Term (or, if the Term is longer than six months, on the next of the dates which

|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

| | (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, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

|(b) | The Parties acknowledge and agree that each identification number assigned to this Agreement, the Facilities and/or one or more Obligors by a numbering service provider and the information associated with each such
number may be disclosed to users of its services in accordance with the standard terms and conditions of that numbering service provider.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|29.4 | Entire agreement
|---- | ----------------

This Clause 29 constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties in relation to the
obligations of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents regarding Confidential Information and supersedes any previous agreement, whether express or implied, regarding Confidential Information.



|29.5 | Inside information
|---- | ------------------

Each of the Finance Parties acknowledges that some or all of the Confidential
Information is or may be price-sensitive information and that the use of such information may be regulated or prohibited by applicable legislation including securities law relating to insider dealing and market abuse and each of the Finance Parties
undertakes not to use any Confidential Information for any unlawful purpose.



|29.6 | Notification of disclosure
|---- | --------------------------

Each of the Finance Parties agrees (to the extent permitted by law and
regulation) to inform the Company:



|(a) | of the circumstances of any disclosure of Confidential Information made pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of Clause 29.2 (Disclosure of Confidential Information) except where such disclosure is made to any of the
persons referred to in that paragraph during the ordinary course of its supervisory or regulatory function; and
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | upon becoming aware that Confidential Information has been disclosed in breach of this Clause 29.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|29.7 | Continuing obligations
|---- | ----------------------

The obligations in this Clause 29 are continuing and, in particular, shall

Page 88



---

|(a) | the date on which all amounts payable by the Obligors under or in connection with this Agreement have been paid in full and all Commitments have been cancelled or otherwise cease to be available; and
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|(b) | the date on which such Finance Party otherwise ceases to be a Finance Party.
|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



|30. | SET OFF
|--- | -------

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



|31. | PRO RATA SHARING
|--- | ----------------



|31.1 | Redistribution
|---- | --------------

If any amount owing by an Obligor 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 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 the excess (the redistribution).
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|31.2 | Effect of redistribution
|---- | ------------------------



|(a) | The Facility Agent must treat a redistribution as if it were a payment by the relevant Obligor under this Agreement and distribute it among the Lenders 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 relevant Obligor 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 an Obligor; 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 there distribution. In this event, the subrogation in paragraph
(b) above will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement.



Page 89



---

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 relevant Obligor 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. This has the same
effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document. Delivery of a counterpart of a Finance Document by email attachment or telecopy shall be an effective mode of delivery.



|34. | NOTICES

Parties may, instead of communicating with each other through the Facility Agent, communicate with each other directly and (while the Facility Agent is an Impaired Agent) all the provisions of the Finance Documents which require communications to be

| | --- | --------------



| | (ii) | (unless the Facility Agent otherwise agrees) accompanied by a certified English translation. In this case, the English translation prevails unless the document is a statutory or other official document.
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|36. | GOVERNING LAW

|--- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

in connection with any Finance Documents.

|(c) | This Clause is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. To the extent allowed by law, a Finance Party may take:

|(b) | If any person appointed as process agent is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Company (on behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the
Facility Agent. Failing this, the Facility Agent may appoint another agent for this purpose.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Page 93



---

|(c) | Each Obligor agrees that failure by a process agent to notify it of any process will not invalidate the relevant proceedings.

THIS AGREEMENT has been
entered into on the date stated at the beginning of this Agreement.
