	11.2.2	 In this Agreement Market Disruption Event means at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is
not available and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Senior Agent to determine JIBAR for the relevant Interest Period.

CHANGES TO PARTIES 
  

	24.	 CHANGES TO THE LENDERS 


  

	24.1	 ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS BY THE LENDERS 


  

	24.1.1	 Subject to this clause 24: 


  

	 	(a)	 a Lender (the Existing Lender) may: 


  

	 	(i)	 cede and/or assign any of its rights; or 


  

	 	(ii)	 transfer any of its rights and obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Commitment), 



(each a Transfer and Transfers shall be construed accordingly) under any Finance Document to any bank or
financial institution or to a trust, fund, pension fund, life assurer or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purposes of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (the New
Lender) at no cost to the Borrower; and 
  

	 	(b)	 in the event that an Existing Lender wishes to cede, assign and/or transfer any of its rights and/or obligations under any Finance Document in
accordance with this clause, each Obligor and the Parent shall (and the Parent and the Borrower shall procure that each member of the Borrower Group will) promptly do all such acts, or execute all such documents relating to the intercreditor
arrangements amongst the Senior Finance Parties, and generally provide its prompt co-operation in relation to any aspect of the transfer process, in each case as the Facility Agent, Security Agent and/or any Security SPV may reasonably require.



  

	24.2	 CONDITIONS OF TRANSFER 


  

	24.2.1	 The consent of the Borrower (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) is required for any Transfer by an Existing Lender of any of its
rights and/or obligations under the Facilities unless the Transfer will be to a Permitted Transferee. Where a Transfer is to be made to a prospective New Lender which is not a Permitted Transferee, the Borrower will be deemed to have given its
consent for such Transfer if, after 10 (ten) Business Days of delivery of the request for consent for such Transfer, the Borrower has not responded to such request. 



  
 142 









	24.2.2	 A Transfer will only be effective on: 


  

	 	(a)	 receipt by the Senior Agent (whether in the Assignment Agreement or otherwise) of written confirmation from the New Lender (in form and substance
satisfactory to the Senior Agent) that the New Lender will assume the same obligations to the other Senior Finance Parties and the other Secured Parties and to the Borrower as it would have been under if it was an Original Lender;



  

	 	(b)	 the New Lender entering into the documentation required for it to become a party to the Plateau Intercreditor Agreement; and 



 

	 	(c)	 the performance by the Senior Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and

	24.2.3	 If: 


  

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



 

	 	(b)	 as a result of circumstances existing at the date the Transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the new Lender or
Lender acting through its new Facility Office under clauses 13 (Tax gross-up and indemnities) or clause 14 (Increased Costs), 



then the new Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those clauses
to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office would have been if the Transfer or change had not occurred; provided that this clause shall not apply to any Transfer by RPM to any South African domiciled
bank. 
  

	24.3	 LIMITATION OF RESPONSIBILITY OF EXISTING LENDERS 


  


	24.3.1	 Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

	 	(b)	 the financial condition of any Obligor or other member of the Group;

 and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded. 

 

	24.3.2	 Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender, the other Senior Finance Parties and the Secured Parties that it: 



 

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


  

	 	(b)	 will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and each member of the Borrower Group and its related
entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force. 


  

	24.3.3	 Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to: 



 

	 	(a)	 accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this clause 24; or



  

	 	(b)	 support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor or other member of the
Borrower Group of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or otherwise. 


  

	24.4	 PROCEDURE FOR TRANSFER 


  

	24.4.1	 Subject to the conditions set out in clause 24.2 (Conditions of Transfer) a Transfer may be effected in accordance with clause 24.4.3 below
when the Senior Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Senior Agent shall, subject to clause 24.4.2 below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it
of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Assignment Agreement. 



  
 144

completion of all “know your customer” or other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry out in relation to the assignment to such New Lender. 



 

	24.4.3	 On the Transfer Date: 


  

	 	(a)	 the Existing Lender will cede and assign absolutely to the New Lender its rights under the Finance Documents expressed to be the subject of the
cession and assignment in the Assignment Agreement; 


  

	 	(b)	 the Existing Lender will be released from the obligations (the Relevant Obligations) expressed to be the subject of the delegation and
release in the Assignment Agreement; and 


  

	 	(c)	 the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender” and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the Relevant Obligations.



  

	24.4.4	 Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this clause 24.4 to cede and assign their rights under the Finance Documents provided
that they comply with the conditions set out in clause 24.2 (Conditions of Transfer). 


  

	24.5	 COPY OF ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT TO BORROWER 



The Senior Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed an Assignment Agreement, send to the Borrower a
copy of that Assignment Agreement.

	 	(a)	 to (or through) whom that Senior Finance Party Transfers (or may potentially Transfer) all or any of its rights and obligations under the Finance
Documents (including to any agent or professional advisor of any such person who/which is under a duty of confidentiality); 


  

	 	(b)	 with (or through) whom that Lender enters into (or may potentially enter into) any sub-participation in relation to, or any other transaction under

appropriate and provided that in relation to clauses 24.6.1(a) and 24.6.1(b) above, the person to whom the information is to be given has entered into a Confidentiality Undertaking; 



 

	24.6.5	 Any Confidentiality Undertaking signed by a Senior Finance Party pursuant to this clause 24.6 shall supersede any prior confidentiality undertaking
signed by such Senior Finance Party for the benefit of any member of the Atlatsa Group or the Borrower Group.

deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount 

  
 153 








 
owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted. 
  

	27.	 CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE SENIOR FINANCE PARTIES 



 

	27.1	 No provision of this Agreement will: 


  

	27.1.1	 interfere with the right of any Senior Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

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



  

	 	(b)	 the Senior Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had
the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Senior Agent and distributed in accordance with clause 29 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Senior Agent in relation to the receipt,
recovery or distribution; and 


  

	 	(c)	 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Senior Agent, pay to the Senior Agent an amount (the Sharing
Payment) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Senior Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with clause 29.5 (Partial payments).




  
 154 









	28.2	 REDISTRIBUTION OF PAYMENTS

	28.4	 REVERSAL OF REDISTRIBUTION

upon request of the Senior Agent, pay to the Senior Agent for account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering
Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay); and 


  

	 	(b)	 that Recovering Finance Party’s rights of subrogation in respect of any reimbursement shall be cancelled and the relevant Obligor will be
liable to the reimbursing Finance Party for the amount so reimbursed.

Each Obligor renounces, to the extent permitted under applicable law, the benefits of each of the legal exceptions of
excussion, division, revision of accounts, no value received, errore calculi, non causa debiti, non numeratae pecuniae and cession of actions, and declares that it understands the meaning of each such legal exception and the
effect of such renunciation and more specifically: 
  

	36.2.1	 Excussion – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that any Lender may be compelled to excuss the
principal debtor prior to claiming from the Obligor; 


  

	36.2.2	 Division – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that a common group of debtors are only responsible
for their proportionate sum of the relevant total debt; 


  

	36.2.3	 Revision of Accounts – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that the accounting documents upon which
the Lenders’ claims are based should be revised; 


  

	36.2.4	 Errore calculi – be renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that there have been errors in
calculation upon which the Lenders’ claim is based; 


  

	36.2.5	 Non causa debiti – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that there is no cause of action for
the claim of the Lender against the relevant Obligor; 


  

	36.2.6	 Non numeratae pecunia – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that no money or the equivalent
thereof has passed between any Lender and the relevant Obligor; 


  

	36.2.7	 Cession of actions – by renouncing this benefit, each Obligor (being a surety) is precluded from raising the defence that such Obligor has
paid the principal debt in full and is therefore permitted to demand that the Lenders(s) cede(s) its/their rights and securities which it/they has/have against the principal debtor and other sureties, to the surety who has paid;



  

	36.2.8	 No value received – by renouncing this benefit, the Obligor is precluded from raising the defence that no consideration, whether in case or
otherwise has been received by the Obligor or the relevant party concerned. 


  

	36.3	 SOLE AGREEMENT 



The Finance Documents constitute the sole record of the agreement between the Parties in regard to the subject matter thereof.

	36.5	 NO VARIATION

suspension of any of the provisions or terms of any Finance Document shall be of any force and effect unless in writing and signed by or on behalf of all the Parties. 
  

	36.6	 WAIVER OF IMMUNITY 



Each Obligor irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  

	36.6.1	 agrees not to claim any immunity from proceedings brought by a Senior Finance Party against it in relation to a Finance Document and to ensure that
no such claim is made on its behalf; 


  

	36.6.2	 consents generally to the giving of any relief or the issue of any process in connection with those proceedings; and 



 

	36.6.3	 waives all rights of immunity in respect of it or its assets. 



 

	36.7	 SEVERABILITY 



Each provision in each Finance Document is severable from all others, notwithstanding the manner in which they may be linked
together or grouped grammatically, and if in terms of any judgement or order, any provision, phrase, sentence, paragraph or clause is found to be defective or unenforceable for any reason, the remaining provisions, phrases, sentences, paragraphs and
clauses shall nevertheless continue to be of full force. In particular, and without limiting the generality of the aforegoing, the Parties acknowledge their intention to continue to be bound by each Finance Document notwithstanding that any
provision may be found to be unenforceable or void or voidable, in which event the provision concerned shall be severed from the other provisions, each of which shall continue to be of full force. 

 

	36.8	 COUNTERPARTS 



Each Finance Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the
counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document.
