	 	(c)	Mandatory Cost, if any. 

  

	8.2	Payment of interest

	(e)	Prior to the Syndication Date, each Interest Period shall be one Month (or such shorter duration as may be desirable to ensure that the Interest Period ends on a date on which rights and obligations under this Agreement

Deduction, in which case the sum payable by that Obligor shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that the Finance Party concerned receives a sum, net of any Tax Deduction, equal to the sum which it would have received if no Tax
Deduction had been required. 

  

	(b)	Each Obligor shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall
notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Company. 


 

	(c)	If an Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, it shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed (including extensions) and in the minimum amount
required by law or regulation. 

  

	(d)	Within thirty days of an Obligor making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall deliver to the Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment an
original receipt (or certified copy thereof) evidencing to the reasonable satisfaction of that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment has been paid to the relevant taxing authority.



  
 46 









	12.3	Tax indemnity 

  

	(a)	Without prejudice to Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up), the Borrower shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, which demand shall not be made earlier than five Business Days prior to the date such loss,
liability or cost will be suffered by such Protected Party) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party
in relation to a sum received or receivable under a Finance Document (whether or not actually received or receivable). 

  

	(b)	Paragraph (a) above shall not apply: 

  

	 	(i)	with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party: 

  

	 	(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or


  

	 	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, 


if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income actually received or receivable (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not
including any sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by that Finance Party but not actually received or receivable) by that Finance Party; 
  

	 	(ii)	to the extent a loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up). 

  

	 	(iii)	to the extent the loss, liability or cost relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party. 

  

	(c)	A Protected Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (a) above shall promptly notify the Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, whereupon the Agent shall notify the
Company. 

  

	(d)	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 12.3, notify the Agent. 

  

	12.4	Tax Credit 

 If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines
that: 
  

	 	(a)	a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, or to that Tax Payment; and 

  

	 	(b)	that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and fully retained that Tax Credit (including, to the extent relevant to that Finance Party, on an affiliated group basis), 


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

  
 47 









	12.5	Stamp taxes 

 The Borrower shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify
each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any cost,
loss or liability in relation to any such Taxes payable in connection with any assignment, novation or other transfer by any Finance Party of its rights and/or obligations under any Finance Document unless an Event of Default is continuing at the
time of such assignment, novation or other transfer). 
  

	12.6	Indirect Tax 

  

	(a)	All amounts set out or 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 Indirect Tax purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive
of any Indirect Tax which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if Indirect Tax is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and the Finance Party is
required to account for the Indirect Tax, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the Indirect Tax (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an
appropriate Indirect Tax invoice to such Party). 

  

	(b)	If Indirect Tax is 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 such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of
that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such Indirect Tax. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to
any credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the Indirect Tax chargeable on that supply. 

  

	(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Finance Party against all Indirect Tax incurred by the
Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses but only to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the Indirect Tax. 


 

	(d)	Any reference in this Clause 12.6 to any Party will, at any time when that Party is treated as a member of a group for Indirect Tax purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a
reference to the person who is treated as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under any applicable grouping rules. 

  

	(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 shall promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that
Party’s Indirect Tax registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s Indirect Tax reporting requirements in relation to such supply. 


  
 48 









	12.7	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 Agent and the other Finance Parties. 

  

	13.	INCREASED COSTS 

  

	13.1	Increased costs 

  

	(a)	Subject to Clause 13.3 (Exceptions) the Borrower shall, within three Business Days of a demand by the Agent, pay for the account of a Finance Party the amount of any Increased Costs incurred by that Finance Party
or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or regulation; (ii) compliance with any law or regulation made after the date of this
Agreement; or (iii) the implementation or application of or compliance with Basel III.

2010, each as amended, supplemented or restated; 

  

	 	(ii)	the rules for global systemically important banks contained in “Global systemically important banks: assessment methodology and the additional loss absorbency requirement – Rules text” published by the

	 	(iii)	any further guidance or standards published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision relating to “Basel III”. 


“Increased Costs” means: 
  

	 	(i)	a reduction in the rate of return from the Facility or on a Finance Party’s (or its Affiliate’s) overall capital (including as a result of any reduction in the rate of return on capital brought about by more
capital being required to be allocated by that Finance Party or one of its Affiliates); 

  

	 	(ii)	an additional or increased cost; or 

  

	 	(iii)	 a reduction of any amount due and payable under any Finance Document,

 which is incurred or suffered by a Finance Party or any of its Affiliates to the extent that it
is attributable to that Finance Party having entered into its Commitment or funding or performing its obligations under any Finance Document. 
  

	13.2	Increased cost claims 

  

	(a)	A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 13.1 (Increased costs) shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Company.


  

	(b)	Each Finance Party shall, as soon as practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Increased Costs. 


 

	13.3	Exceptions 

  

	(a)	Clause 13.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is: 

  

	 	(i)	attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by an Obligor; 

  

	 	(ii)	attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; 

  

	 	(iii)	compensated for by Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) but was not so compensated solely because any of the exclusions in paragraph (b) of
Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) applied) or compensated for by Clause 12.5 (Stamp taxes) or Clause 12.6 (Indirect Tax); or 

  

	 	(iv)	compensated for by the payment of the Mandatory Cost; or 

  

	 	(v)	attributable to the wilful breach by the relevant Finance Party or its Affiliates of any law or regulation; or 

  

	 	(vi)	attributable to the implementation or application of or compliance with the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, a Revised Framework” published by the Basel Committee on
Banking Supervision in June 2004 in the form existing on the date of this Agreement (but excluding any amendment arising out of Basel III) (“Basel II”) or any other law or regulation which implements Basel II (whether such
implementation, application or compliance is by a government, regulator, Finance Party or any of its Affiliates). 

  

	(b)	In this Clause 13.3, a reference to a “Tax Deduction” has the same meaning given to the term in Clause 12.1 (Definitions).

	 	(i)	making or filing a claim or proof against that Obligor;

 SECTION 7 

GUARANTEE 
  

	17.	GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY 

  

	17.1	Guarantee and indemnity 

 Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and
severally: 
  

	 	(a)	guarantees to each Secured Party punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents; 


 

	 	(b)	undertakes with each Secured Party that whenever another Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, that Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was
the principal obligor; and 

  

	 	(c)	agrees with each Secured 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 Secured 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 17 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee. 


 

	17.2	Continuing guarantee 

 This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the
ultimate balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. 
  

	17.3	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 Secured Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation
or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred. 

 

	17.4	Waiver of defences 

 The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will not be
affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 17 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Secured Party) including: 

 

	 	(a)	any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person; 

  

	 	(b)	the release of any other Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group or any other person; 


  
 54 









	 	(c)	the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or other person or any
non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security; 

  

	 	(d)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor or any other person; 


 

	 	(e)	any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including without limitation any
change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security; 


 

	 	(f)	any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security; 


 

	 	(g)	any insolvency or similar proceedings; or 

  

	 	(h)	this Agreement or any other Finance Document not being executed by or binding upon any other person. 

  

	17.5	Guarantor intent 

 Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 17.4 (Waiver of
defences), each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or
amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings;
refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and
any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing. 
  

	17.6	Immediate recourse 

 Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any
Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 17. This waiver applies irrespective of any law
or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary. 
  

	17.7	Appropriations 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under
or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may: 
  

	 	(a)	 refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf)
in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against 



  
 55 









	 	
those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 

  

	 	(b)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of its liability under this Clause 17. 


 

	17.8	Deferral of Guarantors’ rights 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by
the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise directs, no Guarantor shall exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations
under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 17: 
  

	 	(a)	to be indemnified by an Obligor; 

  

	 	(b)	to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(c)	to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in
connection with, the Finance Documents by any Secured Party; 

  

	 	(d)	to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17.1
(Guarantee and indemnity); 

  

	 	(e)	to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or 

  

	 	(f)	to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Secured Party. 

 If a
Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Secured Parties by the
Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Secured Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 30
(Payment mechanics). 
  

	17.9	Additional security 

 This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced
by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Secured Party. 

  
 56

Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including without limitation: 

  
 103 









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

for those obligations or securities,

	(d)	If the Security Agent so requires, on the change of identity of the Account Bank, the Borrower shall promptly enter into such Security over the Collection Account with that new Account Bank as the Security Agent (acting
reasonably) may require in order to ensure that the Security afforded to the Secured Parties over the Collection Account is of equivalent value and effectiveness as the Security purported to be granted over the Collection Account held with the
outgoing Account Bank. 

  

	(e)	The replacement of the Account Bank shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor. 

  

	(f)	The incoming Account Bank and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if that incoming Account Bank had been an original Party

after that FATCA Application Date; 

  

	 	(ii)	the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 19.8 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

by appointing a successor Agent (acting through an office in the United Kingdom).

functions as Agent under the Finance Documents.

	(a)	The Agent (in acting as agent for the Finance Parties) and the Security Agent (in acting as security agent or trustee for the Secured Parties) shall be regarded as acting through its respective agency or security agency
or trustee division which, in each case, shall be treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments. 

  

	(b)	If information is received by another division or department of the Agent or, as the case may be, the Security Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent or, as the case may
be, the Security Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it. 

  

	(c)	Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Agent is not obliged to disclose to any person (i) any confidential information or (ii) any other information if the disclosure
would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of any contractual or fiduciary duty. 

  

	27.16	Relationship with the Lenders

sending and receipt of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address,
department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 32.2 (Addresses) and paragraph (a)(iii) of Clause 32.5 (Electronic communication) and the Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive
all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender. 

  

	27.17	Credit appraisal by the Lenders 

 Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor or
any other person for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Secured Debt Document, each Lender and Hedging Bank confirms to the Agent, the Security Agent and the Arranger that it has been, and will continue to be, solely
responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with any Secured Debt Document including but not limited to:

Secured Debt Documents or any other agreement, Security, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Secured Debt Document; and

Agent (as the case may be) would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents, and apply the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Party shall be regarded as having
received any amount so deducted.

 If a Finance Party (a “Recovering
Creditor”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than (x) in accordance with Clause 30 (Payment mechanics) or (y), in respect of a Hedging Bank only, a Permitted Hedging Payment, (a “Recovered
Amount”) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then: 
  

	 	(a)	the Recovering Creditor shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery to the Agent; 

  

	 	(b)	the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Creditor would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in
accordance with Clause 30 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and 


 

	 	(c)	the Recovering Creditor shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent
determines may be retained by the Recovering Creditor as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 30.7 (Partial payments). 

  

	29.2	Redistribution of payments 

 The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been
paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Secured Parties (other than the Recovering Creditor) (the “Sharing Creditors”) in accordance with Clause 30 (Payment Mechanics). 

 

	29.3	Recovering Secured Party’s rights 

 On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 29.2

 123 








 
right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

Agent, the Account Bank, the Hedging Bank or as the case may be, the Arranger. 

  

	(c)	

  

	 	(i)	If a Finance Party reasonably believes that an amendment or waiver may constitute a “material modification” for the purposes of FATCA that may result (directly or indirectly) in a Party being required to make

	(a)	For so long as a Defaulting Lender has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining the Majority Lenders or whether any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments has been
obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments.

“Replacement Lender”) selected by the Company, and which is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations or all the relevant obligations of the
transferring Lender (including the assumption of the transferring Lender’s participations or unfunded participations (as the case may be) on the same basis as the transferring Lender) for a purchase price in cash payable at the time of transfer
equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in the outstanding Utilisations and all accrued interest, Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents.

Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 

  

	11.	The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and

 SCHEDULE 13 

INTERCREDITOR PRINCIPLES 
  

	1.	General 

  

	1.1	The intent of this Schedule is to lay out the broad commercial agreement between the parties on the key principles to be reflected in an Intercreditor Agreement to be entered into between the Obligors, the Secured
Parties and the banks and financial institutions (“Additional Debt Creditor”) party to the arrangements pursuant to which any Additional Debt is provided. 


 

	1.2	The Intercreditor Agreement will be entered into on the basis of a LMA leveraged intercreditor agreement with such changes as may be necessary to reflect the principles set out in this Schedule. 


 

	1.3	The arrangements contemplated in this Schedule, once implemented, will displace any Security already granted for the Facility which shall be released at the cost of the Borrower against the grant of fresh Security over
the same assets to the Common Security Agent. 

  

	2.	Parties: 

  

	2.1	the Obligors; 

  

	2.2	the Secured Parties; 

  

	2.3	each Additional Debt Creditor (and any agent etc. acting on their behalf); 

  

	2.4	any bank or financial institution providing interest rate hedging to TSMHL in respect of the Facility or any Additional Debt; 

  

	2.5	each Subordinated Creditor; 

  

	2.6	the Account Bank; and 

  

	2.7	a bank or financial institution acting as common security agent (the “Common Security Agent”). 

  

	3.	Amount and Tenor of Additional Debt 

  

	3.1	Only Additional Debt meeting the requirements specified in paragraph (c) of Clause 21.11 (No other business) may accede to the Intercreditor Agreement and benefit from the Security to be held by the Common
Security Agent. 

  

	3.2	The Intercreditor Agreement shall include provisions reflecting and supporting the tenor requirements applicable to the Additional Debt in paragraph (c) of Clause 21.11 (No other business) and, shall in
addition provide that: 

  

	 	(i)	no amendment/variation/waiver may be made to the tenor/maturity profile of any Additional Debt which, if implemented, would result in the tenor requirements in that paragraph (c) not being complied with; and


  

	 	(ii)	no mandatory prepayment may be applied in a manner which would result in the remaining tenor/maturity profile of any Additional Debt not complying with the requirements of that paragraph (c), 


  
 172 








 provided that nothing in this paragraph 3.2 or the Intercreditor Agreement shall prohibit any
voluntary prepayment of the Facility or any Additional Debt. 
  

	4.	Debt Terms 

 The Finance Parties and each Additional Debt Creditor shall mutually
covenant and agree that: 
  

	 	(i)	neither the Facility nor any Additional Debt shall benefit from any Security or Quasi- Security over any asset of any member of the Group other than as contemplated in paragraph 4 below (Security), and no member
of the Group (other than an Obligor) will provide any guarantee of any such indebtedness; 

  

	 	(ii)	neither the Facility nor any Additional Debt will benefit from any mandatory prepayment requirement other than by reason of change of control or illegality (on terms broadly no less favourable to the Obligors than those
in Clause 7.1 (Illegality) and Clause 7.2 (Change of Control) or otherwise by reason of application of Required Proceeds as contemplated In paragraph 5.2 below and, to the extent that any such debt is to be mandatorily prepaid by
reason of the receipt of Required Proceeds, such prepayment shall only be applied in chronological order against the remaining repayment instalments of that debt. 


 

	5.	Security 

  

	5.1	The Facility and all Additional Debt which has acceded to the intercreditor agreement shall benefit from Security (“Common Security”) (held by the Common Security Agent for the benefit of all
such creditors (together, the “Secured Creditors”)) over: 

  

	 	(i)	the shares in TSMHL; 

  

	 	(ii)	a common collection account for receipt of Required Proceeds (the “Common Collection Account”); and 

  

	 	(iii)	for each facility, an individual proceeds account (each a “Facility Specific Proceeds Account”) into which its share of monies allocated from the common collection account shall be deposited and
thereafter applied on a basis consistent with Clause 7.3 (Mandatory prepayment); 

  

	 	(iv)	a security assignment of the benefit to TSMHL any interest rate hedging arrangement entered into by it. 

  

	5.2	Monies standing to the credit of the Common Collection Account shall be applied promptly on receipt by payment into each Facility Specific Proceeds Account to the extent such proceeds are to be applied under the related
Facility and thereafter applied on a basis consistent with paragraph (c) of Clause 7.3 (Mandatory prepayment) but as if the payments required to be made and reserve created there were payments made and reserves created under the relevant
facility (and any associated hedging). 

  

	5.3	The security over TSMHL’s shares and the common collection account shall be held for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pari passu. 


  
 173 









	5.4	The benefit of the security over the individual proceeds account and interest rate hedging relating to a facility shall be held first in priority for the creditors providing that facility and secondly for all other

	6.	Security Enforcement 

  

	6.1	No Secured Creditor shall be permitted to exercise any action to enforce the Security except in accordance with the intercreditor agreement. 


 

	6.2	The Common Security Agent shall be entitled to enforce the Common Security upon the instructions of the “Majority Lenders”, being those lenders and hedge banks whose Exposures (being a lender’s
total outstandings and/or commitments and close out amounts under the hedging transactions) equal at least 50.01% (the exact percentage to be agreed in documentation) of the “Total Exposures” under all the facilities and
hedging transactions for the facilities. 

  

	6.3	No single class of Secured Creditors will have the right to instruct the Common Security Agent to enforce the Common Security unless the Exposures of that class of Secured Creditors is, of itself, sufficient to meet the
requisite voting thresholds for enforcement. 

  

	6.4	Consideration will be given in the Intercreditor Agreement to allowing the Common Security Agent to act on the instructions of a smaller percentage of Secured Creditors votes as regards enforcement of the Common
Security if, after the passing of an agreed time frame, no overall majority is formed to instruct the Common Security Agent. 

  

	6.5	The Common Security Agent shall be entitled to enforce the Security over any Facility Specific Proceeds Account and any hedging arrangements upon the instructions of the applicable majority of the relevant class of
Secured Creditors who have the first priority claim to the proceeds of enforcement of the same (as determined under paragraph 5.4 above). 

  

	6.6	The proceeds of enforcement of the Common Security are to be shared amongst all Secured Creditors on a pro-rata and pari-passu basis except that the proceeds of enforcement of any Facility Proceeds Account Security or
Hedge Security shall be distributed: 

  

	 	(i)	first, to satisfy the debts owed to the lenders of the related Facility; and 

  

	 	(ii)	second, pro-rata and pari-passu amongst all other Secured Creditors.

 174

equivalent investments, provided no event of default is continuing and (for fixed term deposits) the tenor is no more than 6 months and no less than a period to be agreed. 


 

	8.	Other Key Principles 

  

	8.1	All amounts (whether, principal, interest, costs, fees or otherwise) payable under the Facility or any Additional Debt shall be permitted to be paid when due and there will be no restrictions upon such payments (save

	8.2	There shall be no restrictions upon the ability of any Secured Creditors to amend or grant waivers in relation to any of the Facilities save as contemplated above. 


 

	8.3	In addition to controlling the enforcement and sharing of Common Security, the Intercreditor Agreement shall also include provisions aimed at ensuring equalisation of recoveries from unsecured assets of TSMHL (in

	9.4	Provisions will be included for the accession of the creditors in respect of the Additional Debt and the Hedging Counterparties provided that the conditions applicable to that class of Secured Debt referred to above or
otherwise included in the Intercreditor Agreement have been satisfied and no Default is continuing or would occur either by reason of that accession or the incurrence of the relevant Secured Debt. The Intercreditor Agreement will allow the
Additional Debt to be refinanced/replaced with the proceeds of further Additional Debt, which shall rank and share in the Common Security in the same manner as the Additional Debt being refinanced/replaced. 


 

	9.5	Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Account Bank to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement other than on terms acceptable to it. 


 

	9.6	 The Intercreditor Agreement shall contain mandatory prepayment provisions 9.6 substantially similar to the provisions contained in Clause 7.3 (unless
