		(c)	Clause 28.3 (Conditions of assignment or transfer), Clause 28.5 (Limitation of responsibility of
Existing Lenders) and Clause 28.6 (Procedure for transfer) shall apply mutatis mutandis to a transfer by a Commercial Guarantor.

and the New Commercial Guarantor shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would
have acquired and assumed had the New Commercial Guarantor been an Original Commercial Guarantor with the rights and/or obligations
acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent and the Existing Commercial Guarantor shall
each be released from further obligations to each other under this Agreement.



 


		28.3	Conditions of assignment or transfer



 


		(a)	Any assignment or transfer of part of a Finance Party’s commitment shall be in a minimum
amount of USD 20,000,000.



 


		(b)	The consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and provided
always that in any event the Borrower’s liability in respect of withholding for an increased cost will not be substantially
increased by any transfer) is required for any assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, unless the assignment or transfer
is:



 


		(i)	to another Commercial Lender or an Affiliate of a Commercial Lender; or



 


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



 


		(iii)	in respect of a rating downgrade of a Commercial Guarantor in accordance with clause 9.10 (Rating

		(i)	receipt by the Agent 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 was an Original Lender; and

		(ii)	the 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

		(d)	A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 28.6 (Procedure for transfer)
is complied with.



 


		(e)	The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent for a transfer ten (10) Business Days after
consent has been sought unless expressly refused within that period.



 


		(f)	If:



 


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



 


		(ii)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, the
Borrower would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause ‎16
(Increased Costs),



 


then the New Lender or Commercial
Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under that Clause to the same extent as the Existing
Lender or Commercial Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had
not occurred. This paragraph (d) shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary
syndication of the Facility.


 


		(g)	Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or otherwise, 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 Commercial Lender or Commercial 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 Commercial Lender.

other documents;



 


		(ii)	the financial condition of any Obligor;



 




    	 	92 (169)



     


    

 


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

and any representations
or warranties implied by law are excluded.

		(i)	has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial
condition and affairs of each Obligor and their 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 or any other Finance Party in connection with any
Finance Document; and



 


		(ii)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Obligors and
their 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 28 (Changes to the Lenders); 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.



 


		28.6	Procedure for transfer



 


		(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 28.2 (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

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 that the Existing Lender and the New Lender have complied with all necessary “know
your customer” or similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.



 


		(c)	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 and in respect of the Security Interest created by the Transaction Security
Documents each of the Obligors and/or the Security Providers and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations
towards one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Security Interest created by the Transaction Security Documents
and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Security Interest created by
the Transaction Security Documents shall be cancelled (being the “Discharged Rights and Obligations”);



 




    	 	93 (169)



     


    

 


		(ii)	each of the Obligors and/or the Security Providers 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 the Obligors and/or the Security Providers and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the the Obligors
and/or the Security Providers and the Existing Lender;



 


		(iii)	the Agent, the Arrangers, the New Lender and the other Commercial Lenders shall acquire the same
rights and assume the same obligations between themselves and in respect of the Security Interest created by the Transaction Security
Documents 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 Arranger and the Existing Lender shall
each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and



 


the New Lender shall become
a Party as a “Commercial Lender”.


 


		28.7	Copy of Transfer Certificate



 


The Agent shall, as soon as
reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Certificate, or another instrument for assignments under this Clause 28
(Changes to the Lenders), send to the Borrower a copy of that Transfer Certificate or such other instrument as applicable.


 


		28.8	Security over Lenders’ rights



 


		(a)	In addition to the other rights provided to the Lenders under this Clause 28 (Changes to the Lenders),
each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining any consent from any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create
Security Interests in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Documents
to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:



 


		(i)	any charge, assignment or other Security Interest to secure obligations to a federal reserve or
central bank;



 


		(ii)	in connection with any securitisation, covered bond program or any similar or equivalent transaction;
and



 


		(iii)	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 security
for those obligations or securities,



 


		(b)	No charge, assignment or Security Interest granted pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall:



 




    	 	94 (169)

of the relevant charge, assignment or other Security Interest for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or

any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.



 


		28.9	Pro rata interest settlement



 


If the Agent has notified the
Commercial 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 ‎28.6
(Procedure for transfer) 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):


 


		(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 Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six (6) months, on the next of the dates
which falls at six (6) monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and



 


		(b)	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:



 


		(i)	when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account
of 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 28.9, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.



 


		28.10	Disclosure of information



 


Any Finance Party may disclose
to any of its Affiliates and any other person:

		29.3	Resignation of a Guarantor



 


		(a)	The Borrower may request that a Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor by delivering to the Agent a
Resignation Letter if:



 


		(i)	that Guarantor is no longer a Vessel Owner or an Intra-Group Charterer and has been replaced by

		(b)	Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that
currency with such bank as the Agent specifies.



 


		(c)	Without extending the obligations or liability of the Agent under this Agreement in any way, payment
from any of the Obligors to Eksportkreditt shall only be deemed made to Eksportkreditt when the relevant payment has been registered
into the Eksportkreditt Account.



 




    	 	113 (169)



     


    

 


		(d)	Unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, this Clause 34.1 (Payments to the Agent)
does not apply to payments by an Obligor under a Hedging Agreement.



 


		34.2	Distributions by the Agent



 


Each payment received by the
Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 34.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 34.4
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 (5) Business Days’ notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal
financial centre of the country of that currency.


 


		34.3	Distributions to an Obligor



 


The Agent may (with the consent
of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 35 (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.


 


		34.4	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:



 


		(i)	the Agent shall notify the Borrower of that Lender's identity and 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.



 


		34.5	Impaired Agent



 


		(a)	If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required
to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Agent in accordance with Clause 34.1 (Payments to the Agent) may instead pay
that amount direct to the required recipient(s) on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents.



 




    	 	114 (169)



     


    

 


		34.6	Partial payments



 


		(a)	If the Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and
payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Obligor under
the Finance Documents in the following order:



 


		(i)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Agent, the
Security Agent, any Receiver and any Delegate under the Finance Documents;



 


		(ii)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fees or commission due but unpaid
under the Finance Documents;



 


		(iii)	thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal payments due but unpaid under the Facility;



 


		(iv)	fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Hedging Agreements;
and



 


		(v)	fifthly, 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 all the Finance Parties, vary the order set out in paragraphs
(a) (ii) to (v) above.



 


		(c)	Paragraphs (a) and (b) above will override any appropriation made by an Obligor.



 


		34.7	No set-off by Obligors



 


All payments to be made by an
Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or
counterclaim. Netting of payments may nonetheless apply under a Hedging Agreement in accordance with its terms.


 


		34.8	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.



 


		34.9	Currency of account



 


The Obligors shall pay:


 


		(a)	Any amount payable under or pursuant to this Agreement, except as otherwise provided for herein,
in USD; and



 




    	 	115 (169)



     


    

 


		(b)	all payments of costs and Taxes in the currency in which the same were incurred.



 


		34.10	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 Interbank Market and otherwise to reflect the change in currency.



 


		34.11	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:


 


		(a)	the Agent may, and shall if requested to do so by the Borrower, consult with the Borrower with
a view to agreeing such changes to the operation or administration of the Facility as the Agent may deem necessary in the circumstances;



 


		(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 40 (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 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 34.11 (Disruption to payment systems etc.); and



 




    	 	116 (169)



     


    

 


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



 


		35.	Set-off



 


		(a)	A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents
(to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation 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.



 


		(b)	Each Obligor hereby agrees and accepts that this Clause 35 (Set-off) shall constitute a waiver
of the provisions set out in § 29 of the Norwegian Financial Agreements Act 1999 (as amended) and further agrees and accepts,
to the extent permitted by law, that said § 29 shall not apply to this Agreement or the other Finance Documents.

Promptly upon receipt of notification
of an address or e-mail address or change of address or e-mail address pursuant to Clause 36.2 (Addresses) or changing its own
address or e-mail address, the Agent shall notify the other Parties.


 


		36.5	Communication when Agent is Impaired Agent



 


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

		37.	CALCULATIONS AND CERTIFICATES



 


		37.1	Accounts



 


In any litigation or arbitration
proceedings arising out of or in connection with a Finance Document, the entries made in the accounts maintained by a Finance Party
are prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate.


 


		37.2	Certificates and determinations



 


Any certification or determination
by a Finance Party of a rate or amount under any Finance Document is, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive evidence of
the matters to which it relates.


 


		37.3	Day count convention



 


Any interest, commission or
fee accruing under a Finance Document will accrue from day to day and is calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed
and a year of 360 days or, in any case where the practice in the London interbank market differs, in accordance with that market
practice.


 


		38.	Partial invalidity



 


If, at any time, any provision
of a Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither
the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision
under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.


 


		39.	Remedies and waivers



 


No failure to exercise, nor
any delay in exercising, on the part of any Finance Party, any right or remedy under a Finance Document shall operate as a waiver
of any such right or remedy or constitute an election to affirm any of the Finance Documents. No election to affirm any Finance
Document on the part of any Finance Party shall be effective unless it is in writing. No single or partial exercise of any right
or remedy shall prevent any further or other exercise, or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided

amendment, waiver or consent under this Agreement.



 


		(d)	Each Obligor agrees to any such amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 40 which is agreed
to by the Borrower. This includes any amendment or waiver which would, but for this paragraph (d), require the consent of all of

An amendment, waiver or (in
the case of a Transaction Security Document) a consent of, or in relation to, any term of any Finance Document (other than a Hedging
Agreement) that has the effect of changing or which relates to:


 


		(a)	the definition of “Majority Lenders” in Clause 1.1(Definitions);



 


		(b)	a change to the Borrower or Guarantors other than in accordance with Clause 29 (Changes to the
obligors);



 


		(c)	an increase or extension of any Commitment or the Total Commitments;



 


		(d)	an extension to the date of payment of any amount under the Finance Documents;

Documents unless permitted under the Finance Documents or relating to a sale, or disposal of an asset which is the subject of Transaction
Security created under the Transaction Security Documents where such sale or disposal is expressly permitted under any Finance
Document or undertaken by the Agent acting on instruction of the Majority Lenders following an Event of Default which is continuing;



 


		(h)	changes to the Lenders’ rights and obligations between themselves;



 


		(i)	changes to provisions relating to transfers by Lenders;



 


		(j)	a reduction in any payment or change of currency of a payment; or

Any changes to the definition
of “Break Cost” or Clauses 9.10 (Rating downgrade of a Commercial Guarantor), 9.11 (Cessation of a Commercial Guarantee),
9.12 (Expiry of Commercial Guarantee) and to the extent such change affects Eksportkreditt, 10.2 (Interest and other amounts),

    	 	120 (169)



     


    

 


		40.4	Replacement of Screen Rate



 


Subject to Clause 40.5 (Other
exceptions), if any Screen Rate is not available for a currency which can be selected for a Loan, any amendment or waiver which
relates to providing for another benchmark rate to apply in relation to that currency in place of that Screen Rate (or which relates
to aligning any provision of a Finance Document to the use of that other benchmark rate) may be made with the consent of the Majority
Lenders.


 


		40.5	Other exceptions



 


		(a)	An amendment or waiver which relates to the rights or obligations of the Agent, the Security Agent,
the Arrangers or the Hedge Counterparty (each in their capacity as such) may not be effected without the consent of the Agent,
the Security Agent, the Arrangers or, as the case may be, that Hedge Counterparty.



 


		(b)	Any amendment or waiver which:



 


		(i)	relates only to the rights or obligations applicable to a particular Utilisation, Facility or class
of Lender; and



 


		(ii)	does not materially and adversely affect the rights or interests of Lenders in respect of any other
Utilisation or Facility or another class of Lender,



 


may be made
in accordance with this Clause 40 but as if references in this Clause 40 to the specified proportion of Lenders (including, for
the avoidance of doubt, all the Lenders) whose consent would, but for this paragraph (b), be required for that amendment or waiver
were to that proportion of the Lenders participating in that particular Utilisation or Facility or forming part of that particular
class.


 


		40.6	Excluded Commitments



 


If any Lender fails to respond
to a request for a consent, waiver, amendment of or in relation to any term of any Finance Document or any other vote of Lenders
under the terms of this Agreement within fifteen (15) Business Days of that request being made (unless, the Borrower and the Agent
agree to a longer time period in relation to any request):


 


		(a)	its Commitment(s) shall not be included for the purpose of calculating the Total Commitments under
the relevant Facility/ies when ascertaining whether any relevant percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity)
of Total Commitments has been obtained to approve that request; and



 


		(b)	its status as a Lender shall be disregarded for the purpose of ascertaining whether the agreement
of any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve that request.



 


		40.7	Replacement of Lender



 


		(a)	If:



 


		(i)	any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined in paragraph (c) below) and no Event of
Default is continuing; or



 


		(ii)	an Obligor becomes obliged to repay any amount in accordance with Clause 9.1 (Illegality) or to
pay additional amounts pursuant to Clause 16.1 (Increased costs), Clause 15.2 (Taxes) or Clause 15.3 (Tax indemnity) to any Lender
in excess of amounts payable to the other Lenders generally,



 




    	 	121 (169)



     


    

 


then the
Borrower may (at its own expense), on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and such Lender, replace
such Lender by requiring such Lender to (and, to the extent permitted by law, such Lender shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 28
(Changes to the lenders) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Lender or other bank,
financial institution, trust, fund or other entity (a “Replacement Lender”) 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
(Changes to the lenders) for a purchase price in cash payable at the time of transfer in an amount equal to the outstanding principal
amount of such Lender’s participation in the outstanding Utilisations and all accrued interest and/or Break Costs and other
amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents.


 


		(b)	The replacement of a Lender pursuant to this Clause 40.7 shall be subject to the following conditions:



 


		(i)	the Obligors shall have no right to replace the Agent;



 


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



 


		(iii)	in the event of a replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender such replacement must take place no later
than 30 days after the date on which that Lender is deemed a Non-Consenting Lender;



 


		(iv)	in no event shall the Lender replaced under this Clause 40.7 be required to pay or surrender to
such Replacement Lender any of the fees received by such Lender pursuant to the Finance Documents; and



 


		(v)	the Lender shall only be obliged to transfer its rights and obligations pursuant to paragraph (a)
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.



 


		(vi)	A Lender shall perform the checks described in paragraph (b)(v) above as soon as reasonably practicable
following delivery of a notice referred to in paragraph (a) above and shall notify the Agent and the Borrower when it is satisfied
that it has complied with those checks.



 


		(c)	In the event that:



 


		(i)	the Borrower or the Agent (at the request of the Borrower) has requested the Lenders to give a
consent in relation to, or to agree to a waiver or amendment of, any provisions of the Finance Documents; and



 


		(ii)	the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the approval of all the Lenders and consent
has been received from the Majority Lenders;



 


then any Lender who does not and
continues not to consent or agree to such waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender”.


 


		40.8	Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders



 


		(a)	For so long as a Defaulting Lender has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining



 




    	 	122 (169)



     


    

 


		(i)	the Majority Lenders; or



 


		(ii)	whether:



 


		(A)	any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments
under the relevant Facility/ies; or



 


		(B)	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,


 


that Defaulting
Lender’s Commitments under the relevant Facility/ies will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the
relevant Facility/ies and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender’s Total Commitments being
zero, that Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.


 


		(b)	For the purposes of this Clause 40.8, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting
Lenders:



 


		(i)	any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender;



 


		(ii)	any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to
in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) or (d) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” has occurred,



 


unless it
has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the
Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender.


 


		40.9	Replacement of a Defaulting Lender



 


		(a)	The Borrower may (at its own cost), at any time a Lender has become and continues to be a Defaulting
Lender, by giving ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by requiring
such Lender to (and, to the extent permitted by law, such Lender shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 28 all (and not part only)
of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Lender or other bank, financial institution, trust, fund or other entity
(a “Replacement Lender”) selected by the Borrower, which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume
all the obligations, or all the relevant obligations, of the transferring Lender in accordance with Clause 28 (Changes to the Lenders)
for a purchase price in cash payable at the time of transfer which is either:



 


		(i)	in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in
the outstanding Utilisations and all accrued interest and/or Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the
Finance Documents; or



 


		(ii)	in an amount agreed between that Defaulting Lender, the Replacement Lender and the Borrower and
which does not exceed the amount described in paragraph (a) above.



 




    	 	123 (169)

Replacement Lender;

		(v)	the Defaulting Lender shall only be obliged to transfer its rights and obligations pursuant to
paragraph (a) 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 to the Replacement Lender.



 


		(c)	The Defaulting Lender shall perform the checks described in paragraph (b)(v) above as soon as reasonably

successor thereto) shall cease to exist for any reason where process may be served, the Obligor will forthwith appoint another
process agent with an office in Norway where process may be served and will forthwith notify the Agent thereof.

ON DEMAND GUARANTEE (NO. PÅKRAVSGARANTI)


 


(hereinafter the “Guarantee”)


 


Whereas EKSPORTKREDITT NORGE AS (“EKSPORTKREDITT”)
has entered into a senior secured credit facility agreement with Höegh LNG Partners LP, registration no. [●], with registered
offices at [●] (the "BORROWER") dated [●] (as it may be amended from time to time) (the "Facility

Tranche in the amount of USD 56,166,667 (the "Principal Amount").


 


Definitions used in the Facility Agreement
shall have the same meaning when used herein.


 


We [●] (the "GUARANTOR")
hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantee, as for our own debt, the due and punctual repayment to EKSPORTKREDITT the amount
of [●] equal to [●] per cent. ([●] %) of the Principal Amount outstanding at any time, plus [●] per cent.
([●] %) of all incurred and outstanding


 


		(a)	interest,



 


		(b)	default interest, and



 


		(c)	all other amounts



 


payable by the BORROWER to EKSPORTKREDITT
in accordance with the Facility Agreement.


 


[●] per cent. ([●] %) of the
Principal Amount and items (a) – (c) above collectively referred to as the “Guaranteed Amounts”.


 


This Guarantee shall be payable immediately
upon written demand (No. påkravsgaranti).


 


EKSPORTKREDITT may make a written demand
under this Guarantee if (i) the Borrower in the opinion of EKSPORTKREDITT does not fulfil its payment obligations and/or (ii) any
event occurs which in the opinion of EKSPORTKREDITT after consultation with the GUARANTOR constitutes an Event of Default under
the Facility Agreement.


 


Following a demand under this Guarantee
for the whole or part of the Guaranteed Amount, the GUARANTOR has the option to pay its guarantee liability (i) in a lump sum,
or (ii) in the amount of [●] per cent. ([●] %) of each instalment remaining outstanding under the Facility Agreement,
together with any other Guaranteed Amounts payable on the ordinary due date for each instalment.


 


In case of payment in a lump sum, the GUARANTOR
shall compensate EKSPORTKREDITT for Break Costs.


 


The GUARANTOR agrees that, except for a
notice of demand, EKSPORTKREDITT is not obliged to give notice of any kind hereunder.


 




     


     


    

 


The GUARANTOR agrees that any conflict
or dispute of whatsoever nature (including but not limited to) between EKSPORTKREDITT and the BORROWER, has no impact on the GUARANTOR’s
obligation to pay under this Guarantee.


 


All payments under this Guarantee shall
be made in full without any deduction or withholding (whether in respect of set off, counterclaim, duties, present or future taxes,
charges or otherwise whatsoever) unless such deduction or withholding is required by law, in which case the GUARANTOR shall pay
such additional amount as will ensure that EKSPORTKREDITT receives the amount which it would have received but for such deduction
or withholding.


 


This Guarantee is valid until the Guaranteed
Amounts have been paid in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing any and all claims must have been made no later than three (3) months
after the [Maturity Date].


 


This Guarantee shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with Norwegian law, and the GUARANTOR submits to the jurisdiction of the Norwegian Courts, with Oslo City
Court as due venue.

Quiet Enjoyment Letter


 


 


To: [•] ("Lessee")


 


Re: [LNG floating storage and regasification
vessel with. (IMO No. [●]) (the "Vessel")


 


		1.	We refer to:



 


		(a)	the international leasing agreement dated [•] between [Owner] as owner of the Vessel ("Owner")
and [Lessee] as Lessee of the Vessel ("Lessee"),
under which Owner agreed to let the Vessel to Lessee on the terms and conditions set out therein (the "Agreement");
and



 


		(b)	the senior secured term loan credit facility dated [•] between [Owner] as borrower and [•]
as lenders (the "Lenders"),
under which the Lenders agreed to loan certain sums to [Owner] (the "Credit
Facility").



 


		2.	



 


		(a)	In consideration of Lessee signing the acknowledgement to the
notice of assignment given by Owner to Lessee of Owner's assignment to the Lenders by way of security of its rights under the Agreement,
and subject always to Lessee complying in all respects with its commitments under the Agreement, we, as mortgagee of the Vessel
and on behalf of the Lenders (the "Mortgagee"),
hereby agree and undertake that we shall not, directly or through the actions of others, take any action which may interfere directly
or indirectly with or otherwise disturb Lessee's exclusive, quiet and peaceful use, possession, employment and enjoyment of the
Vessel in accordance with the terms of the Agreement and that Lessee will be allowed unfettered use of the Vessel in accordance
with the terms of the Agreement.



 


		(b)	The commitments in Paragraph 2(a) do not extend to committing the Mortgagee to preserving Lessee's
quiet enjoyment of the Vessel if: (i) Lessee has breached the terms of the Agreement; and (ii) such breach entitles Owner under
the terms of the Agreement to withdraw" the Vessel from service or otherwise terminate the Agreement, whether or not Owner
has exercised its right to terminate the Agreement.



 


		3.	Further, the Mortgagee also hereby agrees and undertakes that if an Event of Default (as that term
is defined in the Credit Facility) has occurred and is continuing, except in the circumstance described Paragraph 2(b) above, the
Mortgagee will not exercise any rights it may have against the Vessel, except as provided below.



 


Lessee agrees that
if:


 


		(a)	the Mortgagee notifies Lessee that an Event of Default (as that term is defined in the Credit Facility)
has occurred and is continuing and that either the Mortgagee or its designee wants to assume Owner's rights, obligations and liabilities
under the Agreement and be substituted for Owner under the Agreement (the "Substitute
Owner"), which notice shall give Lessee details of the Substitute Owner, and



 




     


     


    

 


		(b)	the Substitute Owner is an entity which has the financial and technical capacity to perform Owner's
obligations under the Agreement, then if (x) Lessee approves of the Substitute Owner in writing, which approval may not be unreasonably
withheld, and shall be deemed given if not disapproved in writing by Lessee within 15 days after such notice, and (y) the Substitute
Owner agrees that the assumption of obligations and liabilities by the Substitute Owner shall include all of the Owner's obligations
and liabilities under the Agreement to the fullest extent they remained unperformed or unpaid at the time of assumption (including
any obligations in respect of the Purchase Option (as such term is defined in the Agreement)), the Lessee shall enter into a novation
agreement (in form and substance satisfactory to Lessee) with Owner and Substitute Owner in relation to the Agreement and, following
such novation, Lessee shall continue to perform Lessee's obligations under the Agreement in favour of the Substitute Owner.



 


		4.	Nothing in this letter shall create any additional obligations or liabilities on Lessee under the
Agreement and nothing in this letter shall modify or limit any of Lessee's rights or benefits under the Agreement.



 


		5.	This letter and any dispute, controversy, proceedings or claim of whatever nature arising out of
or in any way relating to this letter or its formation (including any non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with English law, and any dispute relating to it shall be subject to arbitration in accordance with
the procedures set forth in the Agreement.
