	 	(i)	the first [***] Satellites have been successfully constructed and launched by 31 December 2015 and the Technical Adviser certifies to the Lenders that there are no
delays to achieving NEXT System Completion on or around the Scheduled Completion Date other than delays permitted or approved pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; and

	 	(B)	it is not aware (after due enquiry with the Technical Adviser, TAS and the Launch Services Provider) of any present or anticipated future delays in the implementation
of the NEXT System (other than as permitted under the Satellite Supply Contract and the Launch Services Contract). 


The conditions in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above will cease to apply following NEXT System Completion and, at all times
thereafter, the Borrower shall be permitted to prepay the whole or any part of any Loan in accordance with paragraph (a) above. 
  

	7.4	Right of cancellation and repayment in relation to a single Lender 

  


	(a)	If:

	 	(ii)	any Lender claims indemnification from the Borrower or an Obligor under Clause 14.3 (Tax indemnity) or Clause 15.1 (Increased costs), 


the Borrower may, whilst the circumstance giving rise to the requirement for that increase or indemnification continues, give the COFACE

 Any notice of cancellation, prepayment, authorisation or other election given by any Party under Clause 7 (Illegality, Voluntary Prepayment and Cancellation), paragraph (c) of Clause 8.4 (Application
of mandatory prepayments) or Clause 8.5 (Mandatory Prepayment Account) shall (subject to the terms of those Clauses) be irrevocable and, unless a contrary indication appears in this Agreement, shall specify the date or dates upon which the relevant

	9.2	Interest and other amounts

	9.7	Costs incurred by and indemnity to the Lenders and/or the French Authorities 


 

	(a)	The Borrower acknowledges that: 

  

	 	(i)	in order to make the Facility available to the Borrower at the fixed rate, the Lenders and the French Authorities have entered into an interest make-up arrangement;


  

	 	(ii)	in connection with such interest make-up arrangement, it is the policy of the French Authorities to enter into hedging arrangements or to cause hedging arrangements to
be entered into with third parties, in order to protect themselves from adverse movements in interest and exchange rates; and 

  

	 	(iii)	it is accordingly reasonable for the Lenders and the French Authorities to rely upon the continuance of the Facility made available hereunder according to its original
profile when such hedging procedure was implemented, on the assumption that all amounts of principal and interest payable by the Borrower under the Facility will be received on their due dates. 


 

	(b)	Accordingly, the Borrower irrevocably agrees that: 

  

	 	(i)	the Borrower shall (to the extent paid or payable by the COFACE Agent or any Lender) reimburse to the COFACE Agent, upon demand, all costs, expenses and indemnities
which any Lender may incur under applicable interest make-up arrangements with the French Authorities in connection with any partial or total prepayment of the Facility of whatever nature, whether voluntary or mandatory or by acceleration, pursuant
to any of the provisions of this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(ii)	under such arrangements, the amount of any indemnity so payable is to be determined in agreement with the French Authorities and will be calculated as specified
hereafter. 

  

	(c)	The amount of the indemnity payable by the Borrower under paragraph (b) of this Clause 9.7 (Costs incurred by and indemnity to the Lenders and/or the French
Authorities) is to be determined by taking into account the differential between the contractual interest rate applicable to the Facility and the prevailing market replacement rate for the amount of each instalment of principal to be prepaid and
each of those rate differentials will be applied to the amount of the corresponding instalment of principal to be prepaid for the period from the date of such prepayment until the originally scheduled Repayment Date. The amount resulting from the
determination of the indemnity pursuant to this paragraph (c) above shall then be discounted at the corresponding market replacement rate and where the total of the discounted amounts thus obtained is negative, no indemnity shall be payable to
the Borrower. 

  

	(d)	The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the amounts payable under this Clause 9.7 (Costs incurred by and indemnity to the Lenders and/or the French Authorities) are
in addition to all amounts payable by it under Clause 12.4 (Break Costs) with respect to any prepayment or any other amount payable under this Agreement. 

  


	9.8	Effect of Repayment and Prepayment on, and cancellation of, Commitments 

 If all or part of a Utilisation under the Facility is repaid or prepaid and is not available for reborrowing (other than by operation of Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent)), an amount of the
Commitments (equal to the amount of the Utilisation which is repaid or prepaid) in respect of the Facility will be deemed to be cancelled on the date of repayment or prepayment. Any cancellation under this Clause 9.8 shall reduce the Commitments of
the Lenders rateably under each Tranche. No amount of the Total Commitments cancelled under this Agreement may be subsequently reinstated.

	10.	INTEREST 

  

	10.1	Calculation of interest 


The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

  

	 	(a)	Margin; 

  

	 	(b)	Base Rate; and 

  

	 	(c)	Mandatory Cost, if any. 

  

	10.2	Payment of interest 


Except where it is provided to the contrary in this Agreement and subject to Clause 10.3 (Capitalisation during construction) below, the
Borrower shall pay accrued interest on each Loan on each Interest Payment Date. 
  

	10.3	Capitalisation during construction 

 On the last day of each Interest Period relating to a Loan which ends during the Availability Period but on or prior to the Starting Point of Repayment, all of the IDC Component of interest accrued on
that Loan during such Interest Period shall be capitalised (subject to the Total Commitments for the relevant Tranche not being exceeded), with the result that: 
  

	 	(a)	(without double counting) there shall be a deemed Loan under the Tranche to which that Loan relates in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the relevant IDC
Component of such interest so capitalised without the need for a Utilisation Request (but subject to all other terms and conditions as if a Utilisation Request had been made); 


 

	 	(b)	the duration of each Interest Period for each Loan in relation to such capitalised interest shall be determined in accordance with Clause 11 (Interest Periods); and


  

	 	(c)	the amount of interest so capitalised shall be treated as paid. 

 For the avoidance of doubt, if the Total Tranche A Commitments and/or Total Tranche B Commitments would otherwise be exceeded by application of this Clause, then this Clause shall only apply to the extent
that the Total Tranche A Commitments and/or Total Tranche B Commitments (as the case may be) would not be so exceeded, and the Borrower’s obligation to pay accrued interest pursuant to Clause 10.2 (Payment of interest) shall continue to apply
in respect of all amounts of accrued interest remaining uncapitalised. 
  

	10.4	Default interest 

  

	(a)	Interest shall accrue on each Unpaid Sum from its due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is 2.00% higher than the
rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Tranche A Loan or a Tranche B Loan (as applicable and based upon whether the Unpaid Sum is owed to a Lender under Tranche A or Tranche B of the
Facility) for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the COFACE Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 10.4 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the COFACE Agent.

	(b)	Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an Unpaid Sum will be compounded with the Unpaid Sum at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that Unpaid Sum but will
remain immediately due and payable. 

  

	10.5	Notification of rates of interest 

 The COFACE Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 

 

	11.	INTEREST PERIODS 

  

	11.1	Interest Periods 

  

	(a)	Each Loan has successive Interest Periods. 

  

	(b)	Subject to the following provisions of this Clause: 

  

	 	(i)	the initial Interest Period for a Loan will be the period from and including its Utilisation Date to and including the next Interest Payment Date; and


  

	 	(ii)	each subsequent Interest Period for a Loan will start on the expiry of the preceding Interest Period and end on the next Interest Payment Date.


  

	(c)	An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date. 


 

	(d)	Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period. 


 

	11.2	Non-Business Days 

 If an
Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day. 
  

	11.3	Consolidation 

 If two or
more Interest Periods: 
  

	 	(a)	relate to Loans made under the same Tranche; and 

  

	 	(b)	end on the same date, 

 those
Loans will be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Loan on the last day of the Interest Period. 
  

	12.	CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST 

  

	12.1	Absence of quotations 


Subject to Clause 12.2 (Market disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Base Reference Banks but a Base
Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Base Reference Banks.

alternative basis agreed as contemplated by Clause 12.3 (Alternative basis of interest or funding) below) the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum
of: 

  

	 	(i)	the Margin; 

  

	 	(ii)	the rate notified to the COFACE Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the date falling five Business Days prior to the
date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum: 

  

	 	(A)	in the case of Tranche A, the aggregate of CIRR and any additional cost to that Lender of procuring funds to be made available to the Borrower at the CIRR rate in
relation to that Loan; and 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of Tranche B, the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan, 


from whatever source it may reasonably select; and 
  

	 	(iii)	the Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Loan. 


 

	(b)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	the percentage rate per annum notified by a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii) above is less than the relevant Base Rate; or 


 

	 	(ii)	a Lender has not notified the COFACE Agent of a percentage rate per annum pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii) above, 


the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan for that Interest Period shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph
(a) above, to be the relevant Base Rate. 
  

	(c)	In this Agreement: 

 Market
Disruption Event means: 
  

	 	(i)	solely in respect of Tranche B Loans, 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 Base Reference Banks supplies a rate to the COFACE Agent to determine LIBOR for the relevant Interest Period; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the COFACE Agent receives notifications from a Lender or
Lenders (whose participations in Loans exceed
33 1/3% of the Loans) that the cost to it of:



  

	 	(A)	in the case of Tranche A, procuring funds to be made available to the Borrower at the CIRR rate; or

	 	(B)	in the case of Tranche B, funding its participation in the Loans, 

 from whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR. 
  

	12.3	Alternative basis of interest or funding 

  

	(a)	If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the COFACE Agent or the Borrower so requires, the COFACE Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of
not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. 

  

	(b)	Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties.

	(b)	The Borrower 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)

Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

  

	(d)	A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (c) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of (i) any Excluded Tax, or (ii) any Tax imposed by
the U.S., if on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying
Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant
taxing authority. 

  

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

  

	(f)	Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to

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

  

	 	(i)	with respect to any Excluded Tax assessed on a Finance Party; or 

  

	 	(ii)	to the extent a loss, liability or cost: 

  

	 	(A)	is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 14.2 (Tax gross-up); or 


 

	 	(B)	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 14.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in paragraph
(d) of Clause 14.2 (Tax gross-up) applied. 

  

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

	14.4	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 retained that Tax Credit,

	14.5	Stamp taxes 

 The Borrower
shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand and provision of supporting documentation, indemnify each Secured Party and Administrative Party against any cost, loss or liability that Secured Party or Administrative Party incurs in relation to

	14.6	VAT 

  

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

	(b)	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the Supplier Party) to any other Finance Party (the Recipient) under a Finance
Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the Subject Party) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier Party (rather than being required to reimburse
the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject
Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT. 


 

	(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may
be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT
from the relevant tax authority. 

  

	(d)	Any reference in this Clause 14.6 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and
unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).

 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. 
  

	15.2	Increased cost claims

	 	(b)	undertakes with each Finance 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 Finance 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 Finance 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 19 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on
the basis of a guarantee. 

  

	19.2	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. 
  

	19.3	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 Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition
which is avoided or must be restored or returned in bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 19 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge,
release or arrangement had not occurred. 
  

	19.4	Waiver of defences 

 The
obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 19 will not be affected by, and each Guarantor irrevocably waives any defence it may have by virtue of, an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 19, would reduce, release or
prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 19 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including: 
  

	 	(a)	any time, forbearance, 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;


  

	 	(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 a Finance Document or any other
document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or 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; or


  

	 	(g)	any insolvency or similar proceedings. 

  

	19.5	Guarantor Intent 

 Without
prejudice to the generality of Clause 19.4 (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: business 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. 
  

	19.6	Immediate recourse 

 Each
Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance 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 19. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary. 
  

	19.7	Appropriations 

 Until all

case may be) of the Group (and, upon the request of the COFACE Agent (but no more than once per a Financial Quarter), the Borrower shall supply to the COFACE Agent, a certificate of an authorized
officer of the Borrower confirming the foregoing and stating which of its Subsidiaries are Material Companies, on the terms set forth in the Compliance Certificate); and 



 

	 	(ii)	except as provided in paragraph (a) above with respect to Baralonco N.V., any Subsidiary which becomes a Material Company and which is not an Original Guarantor
accedes as an Additional Guarantor and grants Transaction Security over any Intellectual Property rights, material contracts, insurances, bank accounts and other Key Assets owned by it (other than Satellites) as the Borrower specifies (to the

any action to protect, perfect or give priority to that Transaction Security as soon as reasonably practicable (and in any event within 30 Business Days of becoming a Material Company), 


provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Material Company shall be required to: 

 

	 	(A)	become a Guarantor; or 

  

	 	(B)	provide any Security over any of its assets, 

 in each case, to the extent that to do so would: 
  

	 	(C)	result in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference or thin capitalisation laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any
applicable jurisdiction; 

  

	 	(D)	be unlawful or result in a significant risk to the officers of the relevant Guarantor or grantor of Security of contravention of their fiduciary duties and/or of civil
or criminal liability; or 

  

	 	(E)	result in costs that, in the reasonable opinion of the COFACE Agent, are disproportionate to the benefit obtained by the beneficiaries of that guarantee or Security
(and for this purpose “cost” includes, but is not limited to, income tax cost, registration taxes payable on the creation or enforcement or for the continuance of any guarantee or Security, stamp duties, out-of-pocket expenses, and other
fees and expenses directly incurred by the relevant Guarantor or grantor of Security or any of its direct or indirect owners, subsidiaries or Affiliates),

interest in any direct or indirect CFC Subsidiary, shall guarantee or be pledged as security for the obligations of the Borrower or any U.S. Obligor. For these purposes, CFC Subsidiary means each Subsidiary of the Borrower or a U.S. Obligor
that is incorporated or organized under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or territory thereof and is a “controlled foreign corporation” (within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code); and

	 	(G)	no Obligor shall guarantee or pledge any of its assets as security for the obligations of the Borrower if (i) such Obligor is a “related person” (as
defined in Section 267(b) or Section 707(b)(1) of the Code) to the Borrower, (ii) such Obligor is not a United States person and (iii) the Borrower does not own a “controlling interest” (as defined in
Section 163(j) of the Code) in such Obligor, if such guarantee or pledge would cause the Borrower to be disallowed, for United States federal income tax purposes, a current deduction (or any portion thereof) for interest expense paid.


  

	(c)	The Borrower must use, and must procure that the relevant Material Company uses, all reasonable endeavours lawfully available to avoid any unlawfulness or personal
liability and mitigate the constraints referred to in paragraph (a) above. This includes agreeing to a limit on the amount guaranteed or secured. The COFACE Agent may (but shall not be obliged to) agree to such a limit if, in its opinion, to do
so would avoid the relevant unlawfulness or personal liability. 

  

	(d)	Any such Material Company referred to in paragraph (a) above, shall become an Additional Guarantor upon confirmation by the COFACE Agent of receipt of a duly
completed and executed Accession Deed and the other documents and evidence specified on Part 2 of Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent).

by the COFACE Agent (for itself or on behalf of any Lender) in order for the COFACE Agent or any Lender to carry out and be satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws
and regulations. 

  

	(f)	The Borrower may request that any Guarantor (other than an Original Guarantor) cease to be a Guarantor by delivering to the COFACE Agent a Resignation Letter
(1) if such Guarantor ceases to be a Material Company, or (2) if all the Lenders have consented to the resignation of that Guarantor. 

  

	(g)	Upon the acceptance of the Resignation Letter, any Transaction Security created by such resigning Guarantor shall promptly be released by the Security Agent and the
U.S. Collateral Agent and returned to the resigning Guarantor or the Borrower. The Security Agent and the U.S. Collateral Agent shall (at the cost of the resigning Guarantor or the Borrower) execute and deliver all documents reasonably necessary to
release the Transaction Security and, to the extent applicable, the Security Agent and the U.S. Collateral Agent shall issue certificates confirming that, so far as the Security Agent and the U.S. Collateral Agent are aware, any floating charge
forming part of the Transaction Security created by such resigning Guarantor has not been converted into a fixed charge. 

  

	23.31	Further assurance 

  

	(a)	Each Obligor shall (and the Parent shall procure that each relevant member of the Group will) promptly do all such acts or execute all such documents (including
assignments, transfers, mortgages, charges, notices and instructions) as the Security Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent may reasonably specify (and in such form as the Security Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent may reasonably require in favour of
the Security Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent or its nominee(s)): 

  

	 	(i)	to perfect the Security created or intended to be created under or evidenced by the Transaction Security Documents (which may include the execution of a mortgage,
charge, assignment or other Security over all or any of the assets which are, or are intended to be, the subject of the Transaction Security) or for the exercise of any rights, powers and remedies of the Security Agent or the U.S. Collateral Agent

 under any Finance Document to another bank or financial institution or to a trust, fund or
other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (the New Lender). 

 

	25.2	Conditions of assignment or transfer 

  

	(a)	The consent of the Borrower and the Majority Lenders is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, unless the assignment or transfer is:


  

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

  

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

 The consent of the Borrower (if required) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the Borrower is given notice of the
request unless it is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time. 
  

	(b)	The minimum amount of any assignment or transfer made pursuant to this Agreement shall be $5,000,000, unless the Borrower otherwise consents in writing.


  

	(c)	Any assignment or transfer is subject to the COFACE Agent confirming that the approval of COFACE to the intended transfer has been obtained or is not required.


  

	(d)	An assignment will only be effective on: 

  

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


 

	 	(ii)	the performance by the COFACE Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to

	(f)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	a 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, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender
acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 14 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) and Clause 15 (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 previous
Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.

execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the transfer or assignment becomes effective in accordance

	 	(ii)	the financial condition of any Obligor; 

  

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

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

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 Transaction Document or the Transaction Security; and


  

	 	(ii)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its 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 25; 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 Transaction Documents

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) (the Redistributed Amount); and

Agent, calculated by the COFACE Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

To: [COFACE Agent] 
 Dear Sirs, 

We refer to the facility agreement (hereinafter called the Facility Agreement) dated [—]
between, inter alios, ourselves, the Lenders and the COFACE Agent. 
 Terms not defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the
Facility Agreement. 
  

	1.	In accordance with the terms of the Facility Agreement, we are sending you herewith 4 series of 14 Promissory Notes made as follows, each set corresponding to
instalments of principal and interest payable in respect of each Tranche: 

  

	(i)	14 Promissory Notes of principal marked Promissory Note of principal no. 1 to Promissory Note of principal no. 14 to the order of [COFACE Agent] for Tranche A;


  

	(ii)	14 Promissory Notes of interest marked Promissory Note of interest no. 1 to Promissory Note of principal no. 14 to the order of [COFACE Agent] for Tranche A;


  

	(iii)	14 Promissory Notes of principal marked Promissory Note of principal no. 1 to Promissory Note of principal no. 14 to the order of [COFACE Agent] for Tranche B; and


  

	(iv)	14 Promissory Notes of interest marked Promissory Note of interest no.1 to Promissory Note of principal no. 14 to the order of [COFACE Agent] for Tranche B.


 Each of the Promissory Notes is made in the form set forth in Schedule 5 (Form of Promissory Notes) to the
Facility Agreement. 
 Their respective amount and maturity dates of the Promissory Notes have been left blank in accordance with

 We hereby irrevocably appoint you for the duration of the Facility Agreement as our

the Promissory Notes in accordance with the following instructions: 
  

	2.	Completion of the Promissory Notes

	 	•	 	 you shall insert on each Promissory Note of principal of each Tranche an amount equal to the amount of the relevant Repayment Instalment determined in
accordance the schedule of Repayment Instalments provided by the COFACE Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of Clause 6.1 of the Facility Agreement; 


  

	 	•	 	 you shall insert on each Promissory Note of interest of Tranche A an amount equal to the amount of interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date

On the first day of each Interest Period following the Starting Point of Repayment, you will insert on the Promissory Note of interest

	3.	Modification of the Promissory Notes in the event of prepayment 

 If any part of any Tranche of the Facility is to be prepaid for any reason whatsoever, you will modify the amounts appearing on the relevant Promissory Notes of principal for such Tranche, so as to
conform to the principal amount of such Tranche of the Facility then outstanding after the prepayment, and will modify the maturity dates of both the Promissory Notes of principal and the Promissory Notes of interest related to such Tranche subject
to prepayment at that time, with the words “at sight” and will return to the Borrower the Promissory Notes relating to the amount prepaid under such Tranche.

interest accrued until such early payment date; 

 If the acceleration occurs after the Starting Point of

 SCHEDULE 7 
 MANDATORY COST FORMULA 
  

	1.	The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the
Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 


 

	2.	On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the COFACE Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional
Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the COFACE Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the
percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 

  

	3.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the COFACE
Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the COFACE Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of
complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office. 

  

	4.	The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the COFACE Agent as follows:


  

	 	(a)	in relation to a sterling Loan: 

  

			
	 AB + C(B – D) + E × 0.01
	 	per cent. per annum
	100 – (A + C)	 

  

	 	(b)	in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling: 

  

			
	 E × 0.01
	 	per cent. per annum.
	300	 

 Where: 

 

	 	A	is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an
interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements. 

  

	 	B	is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in
paragraph (a) of Clause 10.4 (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 

  

	 	C	is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of
England.

	 	D	is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the COFACE Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits. 


 

	 	E	is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the COFACE Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge
supplied by the Base Reference Banks to the COFACE Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000. 

  

	5.	For the purposes of this Schedule: 

  

	 	(a)	“Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of
England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England; 

  

	 	(b)	“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Services Authority Fees Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in
force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits; 

  

	 	(c)	“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under Column 1 of the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or
zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and 

  

	 	(d)	“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 


 

	6.	In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not
as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places. 

  

	7.	If requested by the COFACE Agent, each Base Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the COFACE
Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Base Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Base
Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Base Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Base Reference Bank. 


 

	8.	Each Lender shall supply any information required by the COFACE Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation,
each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender: 

  

	 	(a)	the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and 

  

	 	(b)	any other information that the COFACE Agent may reasonably require for such purpose. 


Each Lender shall promptly notify the COFACE Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

	9.	The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Base Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by
the COFACE Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the COFACE Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits
and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office. 


 

	10.	The COFACE Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be
entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Base Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects. 


 

	11.	The COFACE 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 each Base Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above. 

  

	12.	Any determination by the COFACE Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties. 

  

	13.	The COFACE Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to
be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority
which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

 Additional Insureds 
 The Security Agent, on behalf of the Lenders

 Name & Address 
 The following provisions shall be included in the Launch and Initial In-Orbit insurance wordings in all material respects substantially as follows: 

 

	1	Loss Payee provision of the Launch and Initial In-Orbit insurance: 

 Claims under this insurance are adjusted with the Named Insured and paid to the Security Agent for the benefit of the Lenders to the extent of the Lenders’ interest. Payment must be by electronic
funds transfer and sent to the following account: [—] 
 The Named Insured, the
Additional Insured and the Insurers agree to sign a mutual release agreement acceptable to each of them before a claim is paid, provided however, that a failure to agree a form of release does not diminish the Insurers’ obligation in respect of
the claim. 
  

	2	Subrogation Condition: 


The Insurers shall waive all rights of subrogation against the Additional Insured. 

 

	3	Cancellation Condition is amended to read: 

 This insurance may be cancelled only by mutual written agreement between the Named Insured, the Security Agent and the Insurers except that this insurance may be cancelled unilaterally by the Insurers for
non-payment of Premium. 
 If cancellation is due to non-payment of Premium, the Insurers must give written notice of
cancellation to the Named Insured and the Security Agent at least 15 days in advance of the effective date of cancellation. The 15 day period begins on the date on which the notice has been received by the Named Insured and the Security Agent.
Payment of the Premium due within the notice period by the Named Insured or Additional Insured voids the notice of cancellation for non-payment of Premium.

	(c)	the Insurances name the Security Agent (for and on behalf of the Finance Parties) as additional insured and as loss payee in each of the policies;


  

	(d)	we are not aware of any reason why the Borrower or any Insurer, in our reasonable opinion, may be unwilling or unable to honour its obligations in relation to the

	(e)	we undertake to promptly advise the COFACE Facility Agent and the Security Agent in writing upon being notified by the Insurer that the Insurance(s) have been cancelled
or that the Insurer deems the Borrower to be in default of the Insurance. 

 The confirmations in (e) above only relate to
knowledge and information formally acquired in our capacity as broker to the Borrower, as the case may be, in relation to the Insurances and ceases upon Marsh no longer being the broker for the Borrower of the Insurance. 

We further undertake: 
  

	(a)	upon being notified, to promptly forward to all Insurers at the time of inception and/or renewal of and/or any change in the identity of any Insurers any notice of
assignment to the Security Agent of the Borrower’s rights under the Insurances and to the insurance proceeds in relation to the Insurances, substantially in the form set out in Appendix 4 of Schedule 21 (Insurance) of the COFACE Facility
Agreement, duly executed by the Borrower and received by us, and to use our reasonable endeavours: 

  

	 	(i)	to secure the Insurers’ acknowledgement of receipt of such notices of assignment; and 


 

	 	(ii)	to confirm that such notices are incorporated into or endorsed on the policies, of the Insurance, 


and to provide the COFACE Facility Agent and the Security Agent with copies of such notices, endorsements and acknowledgements;

  

	(b)	to promptly notify you: 

  

	 	(i)	upon our becoming notified in writing of any material change or alteration made or proposed to be made to the Insurances; 


 

	 	(ii)	upon our receiving any notice of cancellation (including for non-payment of premium) of the Insurance by an Insurer; 


 

	 	(iii)	in the event of our being notified of any purported assignment of or the creation of any security interest over the Borrower’s interest or rights in any of the
Insurances (other than any such assignment or security interest created pursuant to a Transaction Security Document (as defined in the COFACE Facility Agreement); and 


 

	 	(iv)	after giving or receiving notice of termination of our appointment as insurance brokers to the Borrower in relation to the Insurances. 


 

	(c)	to maintain intact files (including all documents disclosed and correspondence in connection with the placement of the Insurances and claims thereunder) and to give to
the Security Agent and COFACE Facility Agent all such information relating to the Insurances (including true copies of any placing slips) as the Security Agent and COFACE Facility Agent may reasonably request in writing, provided such disclosures
are subject to Marsh’s record retention policies;

	(d)	to promptly provide to pass on to the COFACE Facility Agent and Security Agent copies of any notice given by any Insurer under or in respect of the Insurances to the
Finance Parties; and 

 The above undertakings are given: 

 

	(a)	subject to our lien, if any, on the Insurances referred to above for premia due under such Insurances in respect of the Insurances and subject to the Insurers’
right of cancellation on default in payment of such premia; 

  

	(b)	subject to our continuing appointment as insurance brokers to the Borrower in relation to the Insurances; and 


 

	(c)	subject to the termination date of [insert date commitment ends] in which case all of our obligations under this letter shall cease. 


We have arranged the Insurance on the basis of information and instructions given by the Borrower. We have not made any particular or special enquiries
regarding the Insurance beyond those that we normally make in the ordinary course of arranging insurances on behalf of our clients. The confirmations set out in this letter are given by reference to our state of knowledge at the date hereof.

 Save insofar as we have given agreements or representations in this letter, it is to be understood by the addressees of this letter that they
may not rely on any advice which we have given to the Borrower, and we do not represent that the Insurance are suitable or sufficient to meet the needs of the addressees who must take steps and advice of their own as they consider necessary in order
to protect their own interests. 
 This letter has been prepared exclusively for the use of the parties to whom it is addressed. No
responsibility is accepted to any third party for any part of the contents of this letter and in the event that it is disclosed to a third party any and all liability howsoever arising to that third part is hereby expressly excluded. 

Our aggregate liability to any persons who act in reliance on this letter, or on any other broker’s letter of undertaking issued by us in respect of
the Insurances, for any and all matters arising from them and the contents thereof shall in any and all events be limited to the sum of $5,000,000, even if we are negligent. We do not limit our liability for our fraud. 

For the avoidance of doubt, all confirmations given in this letter relate solely to the Insurance. They do not apply to any other insurances or
reinsurances, and nothing in this letter should be taken as providing undertakings or confirmations in relation to any other insurance or reinsurance that ought to have been placed by, or may at some future date be placed by, other brokers.

 This letter and all non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with this letter shall be governed by and shall be construed
in accordance with New York law and any dispute as to its terms shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts of New York. 
 Yours faithfully,

Finance Documents (including any information relating to the financial condition or affairs of any Obligor or its related entities or the nature or extent of recourse against any Party or its assets) whether coming into its possession before, on or
after the date of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	(ii)	unless specifically requested to do so by a Secured Party in accordance with a Finance Document, to request any certificate or other document from any Obligor.


  

	(d)	Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Secured Party confirms
that it: 

  

	 	(i)	has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of all risks arising under or in connection with the Finance Documents (including the financial
condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities and the nature and extent of any recourse against any Party or its assets); and 

  

	 	(ii)	has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Security Agent in connection with any Finance Document or agreement entered into in anticipation of
or in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

	(e)	In acting as the Security Agent, the Security Agent will be regarded as acting through its agency division which will be treated as a separate entity from its other
divisions and departments. Any information acquired by the Security Agent which, in its opinion, is acquired by another division or department or otherwise than in its capacity as the Security Agent may be treated as confidential by the Security
Agent and will not be treated as information possessed by the Security Agent in its capacity as such. 

  

	(f)	The Security Agent is not obliged to disclose to any person any confidential information supplied to it by or on behalf of an Obligor (or any related person) solely for

	(g)	Each Obligor irrevocably authorises the Security Agent to disclose to the other Secured Parties any information which, in its opinion, is received by it in its capacity
as the Security Agent. 

  

	13.	Compliance 

 The Security
Agent may refrain from doing anything (including disclosing any information) which might, in its opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its opinion,
is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation. 
  

	14.	Resignation of the Security Agent 

  

	(a)	The Security Agent may resign and appoint any of its affiliates as successor Security Agent by giving notice to the Secured Parties and the Company.


  

	(b)	Alternatively, the Security Agent may resign by giving notice to the Secured Parties and the Company, in which the COFACE Agent may appoint a successor Security Agent.


  

	(c)	If no successor Security Agent has been appointed under paragraph (b) above within 30 days after notice of resignation was given, the Security Agent may appoint a
successor Security Agent. 

  

	(d)	The resignation of the Security Agent and the appointment of any successor Security Agent must be effected by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the
retiring Security Agent and the successor Security Agent and will both become effective only when the following conditions have been satisfied: 

  

	 	(i)	the successor Security Agent notifies all the Parties that it accepts its appointment; 


 

	 	(ii)	the successor Security Agent has received legal advice to the effect that the rights under the Finance Documents (and any related documentation) have been transferred
or assigned to it; and 

  

	 	(iii)	each Secured Party (other than the Security Agent) confirms to the Security Agent that it is satisfied with the credit rating of the proposed successor Security Agent].


 On satisfaction of the above conditions, the successor Security Agent will succeed to the position of the
Security Agent and the term Security Agent will mean the successor Security Agent. 
  

	(e)	The retiring Security Agent must, at its own cost: 

  

	 	(i)	make available to the successor Security Agent those documents and records and provide any assistance as the successor Security Agent may reasonably request for the
purposes of performing its functions as the Security Agent under the Finance Documents; and 

  

	 	(ii)	enter into and deliver to the successor Security Agent those documents and effect any registrations as may be required for the transfer or assignment of all of its
rights and benefits under the Finance Documents to the successor Security Agent. 

  

	(f)	The Company must, at its own cost, take any action and enter into and deliver any document which is required by the Security Agent to ensure that a Transaction Security
Document provides for effective and perfected Liens in favour of any successor Security Agent. 

  

	(g)	Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause will continue to benefit the retiring Security Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it in
connection with the Finance Documents while it was the Security Agent, and, subject to paragraph (e) above, it will have no further obligations under any Finance Document.
