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

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



|13. | Taxes and Tax Credits
|--- | ---------------------



|13.1 | All sums payable in respect of the Notes shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for or on account of any tax unless the Issuer is required by law to
make such a payment subject to the withholding or deduction of tax, in which case to the extent that the Noteholder is the Noteholder the sum payable by the Issuer in respect of which such withholding or deduction is required to be made shall be
increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of such withholding or deduction, each Noteholder receives and retains (free from any liability in respect of any such withholding or deduction) a net sum equal to the sum which it
would have received and so retained had no such withholding or deduction been made or required to be made.
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

or the manner in which such withholdings or deductions are calculated), the Issuer shall promptly notify the Noteholder.
|---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|13.3 | If, following the making of any increased payment by the Issuer pursuant to Clause 13.1, a Noteholder receives or is granted a credit against, remission for or repayment of any tax
payable or suffered by it which is referable to such deduction or withholding or such increased payment and which confers a genuine benefit on such Noteholder, such Noteholder shall, to the extent that the auditors of such Noteholder (acting as
experts and not as arbitrators) are reasonably satisfied that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of such credit, remission or repayment, promptly reimburse the Issuer with such amount as the auditors of such Noteholder (acting as
experts and not as arbitrators) shall reasonably determine and certify (substantiating in reasonably sufficient detail the amount concerned but not including any matters which such Noteholder fairly regards as confidential) to the Issuer to be such
proportion of such credit, remission or repayment as will leave such Noteholder (after such reimbursement) in no better position (after tax) than would have been the case had no such deduction or withholding been required to be made.
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|13.4 | Reimbursement shall be made under Clause 13.3 above within seven (7) days after a Noteholder has actually received the benefit of such exemption, credit, emission or repayment, but
any reimbursement shall include an amount in respect of interest or repayment supplement on or in respect of tax actually received or credited to such Noteholder in respect of such exemption, credit, remission or repayment and such Noteholder shall
not unreasonably delay the obtaining of such benefit.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|13.5 | If a Noteholder is obliged to pay to the Issuer any sum under a Note and:
|---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | any such exemption, credit, remission or repayment as is referred to in Clause 13.3 is subsequently withdrawn in whole or in part; or
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | such sum is paid on the basis that it would be allowed to such Noteholder as a deduction or offset for taxation purposes in the accounting period of such Noteholder and such
assumption subsequently proves to be incorrect,
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



then the Issuer shall repay to such Noteholder promptly on demand such amount as the auditors of such Noteholder (acting as experts and not as arbitrators) shall reasonably determine and certify (substantiating in reasonably sufficient
detail the amount concerned and not including any matters which such Noteholder fairly regards as confidential) to the Issuer to be such amount as will leave such Noteholder (after such repayment) in no better position (after tax) than would have
been the case had no such circumstances mentioned in paragraphs (a) and (b) above existed.

event which, but for the payment of such accrued interest as provided in the proviso set forth in the definition of Interest Payment Default, would become an Interest Payment Default, shall be payable on the date upon which the
obligation of the Issuer to pay such accrued interest is discharged, whether in accordance with the definition of Interest Payment Default or as otherwise provided herein.

on the Notes and all other obligations of the Issuer now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the Notes (including, without limitation, amounts payable on account of the redemption provisions set forth herein) (collectively, the
Subordinated Debt) shall be subordinated in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 19 to the prior payment in full of all Senior Obligations. For purposes hereof, the Senior Obligations shall not be deemed to have been paid
in full until the Finance Parties shall have received payment of the Senior Obligations in full in cash. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Issuer and the Noteholder, by its acceptance hereof, agrees as follows:
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.2 | Upon payment or distribution of assets or securities of the Issuer of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, upon any dissolution or winding up or total or
partial liquidation or reorganization of the Issuer, whether voluntary or involuntary, or in bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or other proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of the assets and
liabilities of the Issuer, all Senior Obligations shall first be paid in full in cash, or payment provided for in cash or cash equivalents in a manner satisfactory to the Finance Parties, before any direct or indirect payment or distribution,
including, without limitation, by exercise of set-off, of any cash, property or securities on account of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



---

or any other amounts on or in respect of the Notes and to that end the Finance Parties shall be entitled
to receive directly, for application to the payment of the Senior Obligations (to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Obligations in full after giving effect to any substantially concurrent payment or distribution to or provision for payment to
the Finance Parties), any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, in respect of the Subordinated Debt. The Facility Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered (in its own name or in the
name of the Noteholders or otherwise), but shall have no obligation, to demand, sue for, collect and receive payment or distribution referred to herein and to file a claim and proofs of claim and take such other action (including without limitation,
voting the Subordinated Debt) as it may deem necessary or advisable for the exercise or enforcement of any of the rights or interests of the Noteholders hereunder.



|19.3 | No direct or indirect payment by or on behalf of the Issuer of principal of (premium, if any), or interest on, or any other amount with respect to, the Subordinated Debt, and no
repurchase, redemption or other retirement of any Note, whether pursuant to the terms of the Note, upon acceleration or otherwise, shall be made if at the time of such payment, repurchase, redemption or retirement, a Subordination Event has occurred
for so long as such Subordination Event shall not have been cured or waived in writing by all applicable parties; provided, that the payment of accrued interest specified in the proviso in the definition of Interest Payment
Default may be paid in accordance with such proviso; and provided, further, that on and after the Standstill Termination Date, the Issuer may resume payments on account of the principal of (premium, if any), and interest
(including interest pursuant to Clause 15.1) and any other amounts on the Note, subject to the provisions of Clause 19.1 and Clause 19.2 hereof;
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.4 | (a) In the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions prohibiting such payment or distribution, the Noteholders shall have received any payment on account of the
Subordinated Debt at a time when such payment is prohibited by such provisions before the Senior Obligations are paid in full, then and in such event, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust by the Noteholders apart from
their other assets and forthwith paid over or delivered to the Facility Agent in the same form as so received (with any necessary indorsement) to be applied (in the case of cash) to, or held as collateral (in the case of non-cash property or
securities) for, the payment or prepayment of the Senior Obligations in accordance with the terms of the Senior Loan Agreements.
|---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



(b) Nothing contained in this Clause 19 will limit the right of the Noteholders to take any action provided herein with respect to the Subordinated Debt;
provided that all Senior Obligations then due or thereafter declared to be due shall first be paid in full before the Noteholders are entitled to receive any payment from the Issuer of principal of, or interest on, or any other amounts under
any Note.



(c) Upon any payment or distribution of assets or
securities referred to in this Clause 19, the Noteholders shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization proceedings are pending, and upon
a certificate of the receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other person making any such payment or



---

distribution, delivered to the Noteholders for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to
participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Obligations and other indebtedness of the Issuer, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this
Clause 19.



(d) No right of any present or future holder of
any Senior Obligations to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Issuer or any Noteholder with the terms and
provisions and covenants herein regardless of any knowledge thereof such holder may have or otherwise be charged with.



(e) The provisions of this Clause 19 are intended to be for the benefit of, and shall be enforceable directly by, the holders of the Senior Obligations.
The Issuer and each Noteholder, by its acceptance hereof, each acknowledge that the Finance Parties are relying upon the provisions of this Clause 19 in extending such Senior Obligations.



|19.5 | Any payment or distribution to the Facility Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Senior Obligations, pursuant to the provisions of this Clause 19 shall entitle the Noteholder to a
right of subrogation in respect thereof; provided, however that all such subrogation rights are not exercisable until the Senior Obligations shall have been paid in full.
|---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.6 | Nothing contained in this Clause 19 or elsewhere in this Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the Issuer and the Noteholder, the obligations of the Issuer, which are
absolute and unconditional, to pay to the Noteholder the principal of (premium, if any), and interest on, the Note as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative
rights of the Noteholder and creditors of the Issuer other than the holders of the Senior Obligations nor shall anything herein or therein prevent any Noteholder from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law upon the occurrence
of a Mandatory Prepayment Event under this Note, subject to the rights, if any, under this Clause 19 of the holders of the Senior Obligations in respect of cash, property or securities of the Issuer received upon the exercise of any such remedy.
|---- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.7 | As long as the Senior Obligations shall not have been paid in full, no Noteholder will commence, or join with any creditor other than the holders of the Senior Obligations in
commencing, or directly or indirectly cause the Issuer to commence or assist the Issuer in commencing, any proceeding referred to in Clause 19.2.
|---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|19.8 | All rights and interests hereunder of the holders of the Senior Obligations, and all agreements and obligations of the Noteholders and the Issuer under this Clause 19, shall remain
in full force and effect irrespective of:
|---- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



(a)
the lack of validity or enforceability of any provision under any Senior Loan Agreement or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;



(b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Senior Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver
of or any consent to any departure from the Senior Loan Agreements, including, without limitation, any



---

increase in the Senior Obligations resulting from the extension of additional credit to the Issuer or any
of its subsidiaries or otherwise;



(c) any taking, exchange,
release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any guaranty, for all or any of the Senior Obligations;



(d) any manner of application of collateral, or proceeds thereof, to all or any of the Senior Obligations, or any manner of
sale or other disposition of any collateral for all or any of the Senior Obligations or any other assets of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries;



(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate structure or existence of the Issuer or any of its subsidiaries; or



(f) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense
available to, or a discharge of, the Issuer or a subordinated creditor.



Each
Noteholder and the Issuer hereby waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance and any other notice with respect to any of the Senior Obligations and this Clause 19 and any requirement that the Facility Agent or any holder of the Senior
Obligations protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or lien or any property subject thereto or exhaust any right or take any action against the Issuer or any other person or entity or any collateral.



|19.9 | (a) The provisions of this Clause 19 shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, and the Senior Obligations shall not be deemed to be paid in full, as the case may be, if at
any time any payment of any of the Senior Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the Facility Agent or any holder of the Senior Obligations upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Issuer or otherwise, all as
though such payment had not been made.
|---- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



(b) The
provisions of this Clause 19 shall (i) remain in full force and effect until the payment in full of the Senior Obligations, (ii) be binding upon the Issuer and each Noteholder and their respective successors, assigns and transferees and (iii) inure
to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, each Finance Party and its successors, assigns and transferees.



|20. | Miscellaneous
|--- | -------------



|20.1 | No failure by any Noteholder to exercise, nor any delay by such Noteholder in exercising, any right or remedy in respect of any of the Notes shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor
shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or
remedies (whether provided by law or otherwise).
|---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
