(F)                                 By a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Additional Guarantor passed on 28 June 2013, the Additional Guarantor (being of the opinion that it will be to its benefit and interest and in the furtherance of its objects to do so) has agreed to guarantee the Relevant Notes and to enter into certain covenants as set out or referred to in this Supplemental Trust Deed and the Issuer has procured that the Additional Guarantor will be a party to this Supplemental Trust Deed for such purposes.

 

NOW THIS SUPPLEMENTAL TRUST DEED WITNESSES AND IT IS HEREBY AGREED AND DECLARED as follows:

 

1.                                      INTERPRETATION AND CONSTRUCTION

 

1.1                               Save as herein otherwise provided and unless there is something in the subject or context inconsistent therewith all words and expressions defined in the Relevant Trust Deeds shall have the same meanings in this Supplemental Trust Deed.

 

1.2                               Save as expressly amended by this Supplemental Trust Deed, the Relevant Trust Deeds shall remain in full force and effect and all rights, powers, obligations and immunities comprised therein and arising pursuant thereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding this Supplemental Trust Deed. The Relevant Trust Deeds shall henceforth be read and construed as one document with this Supplemental Trust Deed and references in the Relevant Trust Deeds to “this Trust Deed” shall be read as references to the Relevant Trust Deeds as amended by this Supplemental Trust Deed.

 

2.                                      GUARANTEE

 

2.1                               The Additional Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably, jointly and severally with each other Existing Guarantor under the Relevant Trust Deeds guarantees to the Trustee the due and punctual payment of all sums expressed to be payable by the Issuer under the Relevant Trust Deeds or in respect of the Relevant Notes or the relative Coupons, as and when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity, upon early redemption, upon acceleration or otherwise, according to the terms of the Relevant Trust Deeds and the Relevant Notes and the relative Coupons. In the case of the failure of the Issuer to pay any such sum as and when the same shall become due and payable, the Additional Guarantor hereby agrees to cause such payment to be made as and when the same becomes due and payable, whether at maturity, upon early redemption, upon acceleration or otherwise, as if such payment were made by the Issuer.

 

2.2                               The Additional Guarantor agrees that as an independent primary obligation, it shall pay to the Trustee on demand sums sufficient to indemnify the Trustee and each Noteholder and Couponholder against any liability sustained by the Trustee or such Noteholders or Couponholder by reason of the non-payment as and when the same shall become due and payable of any sum expressed to be payable by the Issuer under the Relevant Trust Deeds or in respect of the Relevant Notes, whether by reason of any of the obligations expressed to be assumed by the Issuer in the Relevant Trust Deeds

 

3











 

or the Relevant Notes being or becoming void, voidable or unenforceable for any reason, whether or not known to the Trustee or such Noteholders or Couponholder or for any other reason whatsoever.

 

2.3                               If the Issuer defaults in the payment of any sum expressed to be payable by it under the Relevant Trust Deeds or in respect of the Relevant Notes or the relative Coupons as and when the same shall become due and payable, the Additional Guarantor shall immediately and unconditionally pay or procure to be paid to or to the order of the Trustee in the relevant currency in same day, freely transferable funds the amount in respect of which such default has been made; provided that every payment of such amount made by the Additional Guarantor to the Principal Paying Agent in the manner provided in the Paying Agency Agreement shall be deemed to cure pro tanto such default by the Issuer and shall be deemed for the purposes of this Clause 2 to have been paid to or for the account of the Trustee except to the extent that there is failure in the subsequent payment of such amount to the Noteholders and Couponholders in accordance with the Conditions, and everything so paid by the Additional Guarantor in accordance with the Paying Agency Agreement shall have the same effect as if it had been paid thereunder by the Issuer.

 

2.4                               The Additional Guarantor agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of the Relevant Trust Deeds or any Relevant Note or relative Coupon, or any change in or amendment hereto or thereto, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Noteholder or Couponholder or by the Trustee with respect to any provision of the Relevant Trust Deeds or the Relevant Notes, the obtaining of any judgment against the Issuer or any action to enforce the same or any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defence of a guarantor.

 

2.5                               The Additional Guarantor waives diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of a merger or bankruptcy of the Issuer, any right to require a proceeding first against the Issuer, protest or notice with respect to any Relevant Note or the indebtedness evidenced thereby and all demands whatsoever. The Additional Guarantor agrees that the guarantee and indemnity contained in this Clause 2 is a continuing guarantee and indemnity and shall remain in full force and effect until all amounts due as principal, interest or otherwise in respect of the Relevant Notes or relative Coupons or under the Relevant Trust Deeds shall have been paid in full and that the Additional Guarantor shall not be discharged by anything other than a complete performance of the obligations contained in the Relevant Trust Deeds and the Relevant Notes and relative Coupons.

 

2.6                               The Additional Guarantor shall be subrogated to all rights of the Noteholders against the Issuer in respect of any amounts paid by the Additional Guarantor pursuant hereto; provided that the Additional Guarantor shall not without the consent of the Trustee be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon or prove in any insolvency or winding up of the Issuer in respect of, such right of subrogation until such time as the principal of and interest on all outstanding Relevant Notes and relative Coupons and all other amounts due under the Relevant Trust Deeds and the Relevant Notes and relative Coupons have been paid in full. Furthermore, until such time as aforesaid the Additional Guarantor shall not take any security or counter-indemnity from the Issuer in respect of the Additional Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 2.

 

2.7                               If any payment received by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent pursuant to the provisions of the Relevant Trust Deeds or the Conditions of the Relevant Notes shall, on the subsequent bankruptcy, insolvency, corporate reorganisation or other similar event affecting the Issuer, be avoided, reduced, invalidated or set aside under any laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, corporate reorganisation or other similar events, such payment shall not be considered as discharging or diminishing the liability of the Additional Guarantor whether as guarantor, principal debtor or indemnifier and the guarantee and indemnity contained in this Clause 2 shall continue to apply as such payment had at all times remained owing by the Issuer and the Additional Guarantor shall indemnify and keep indemnified the Trustee and the Noteholders on the terms of the guarantee and indemnity contained in this Clause 2.

2.8                             Any amount received or recovered by the Trustee (otherwise than as a result of a payment by the Issuer to the Trustee in accordance with Clause 3 of the Relevant Trust Deeds) from the Additional Guarantor in respect of any sum payable by the Issuer under the Relevant Trust Deeds or the Relevant Notes or relative Coupons may be placed in a suspense account and kept there for so long as the Trustee thinks fit.

 

2.9                              The Additional Guarantor acknowledges and undertakes that its obligations under this Clause 2 shall be joint and several with each other Guarantor under the Relevant Trust Deeds and that it shall be deemed to have consented to the admission of any company as a Additional Guarantor and shall be deemed to be jointly and severally liable with any new Guarantor by virtue of the giving by any Additional Guarantor of a guarantee without the necessity for it or the Issuer or any other Guarantor to concur in or consent to any deed admitting any Additional Guarantor.

 

3.                                      APPLICABILITY AND MODIFICATION OF THE RELEVANT TRUST DEEDS

 

3.1                               On and from the date hereof, the Additional Guarantor will become a Guarantor for the purposes of the Relevant Trust Deeds (as amended pursuant to this Supplemental Trust Deed).

 

3.2                               All the provisions of the Relevant Trust Deeds (other than Clause 5 of each Relevant Trust Deed), the Conditions of the Relevant Notes and the Relevant Final Terms relating to the “relevant Guarantor(s)” and the “Guarantor(s)” shall apply to the Additional Guarantor and to the guarantee given by the Additional Guarantor under Clause 2 hereof in all respects as if the Additional Guarantor had been an original party to the Relevant Trust Deeds and references therein (other than in Clause 5 of each Relevant Trust Deed) and in the Conditions of the Relevant Notes and the Relevant Final Terms to the “relevant Guarantor(s)” and the “Guarantor(s)” had included the Additional Guarantor and the Additional Guarantor hereby covenants with the Trustee that it will henceforth duly observe and perform and be bound by all such of the covenants, conditions and provisions contained in the Relevant Trust Deeds as are expressed to be binding on the “relevant Guarantor(s)” and the “Guarantor(s)” (other than Clause 5 of each Relevant Trust Deed).

 

3.3                               For the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Guarantor:

 

(a)                                consents to the admission of any Subsidiary of the Issuer or a Guarantor as an ‘Additional Obligor’ (as defined in the Relevant Trust Deeds) in accordance with Clause 8.4 of the Relevant Trust Deeds and agrees that it shall be jointly and severally liable with any such ‘Additional Obligor’ by virtue of the admission of that ‘Additional Obligor’ as a Guarantor in accordance with requirements set out in Clause 8.4 of the Relevant Trust Deeds; and

 

(b)                                hereby authorises the Issuer to concur in, consent to or agree to any deed admitting any such ‘Additional Obligor’ as a Guarantor.

 

4.                                      CONFIRMATION OF THE EXISTING GUARANTORS

 

4.1                               CCH SA, CC HBC Finance and CC HBC AG hereby confirm to the Trustee that their guarantees in respect of the 2014 Notes remain unmodified and in full force and effect notwithstanding the modifications made in relation to the 2014 Notes pursuant to this Supplemental Trust Deed and that they are jointly and severally liable with the Additional Guarantor.

 

4.2                               CCH SA and CC HBC AG hereby confirm to the Trustee that their guarantees in respect of the 2016 Notes remain unmodified and in full force and effect notwithstanding the modifications made in relation to the 2016 Notes pursuant to this Supplemental Trust Deed and that they are jointly and severally liable with the Additional Guarantor.

Clause 7.2 (English Courts) is for the benefit of the Trustee and the Noteholders only.

Nothing in this paragraph shall affect the right of the Trustee or (when they are entitled to do so) any of the Noteholders to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. This clause applies to Proceedings in England and to Proceedings elsewhere but not to proceedings in the Netherlands.

 

7.6                               Power of Attorney
