(B)the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph 12.1.1(A)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender; and:
(1)an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a "Direction") under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the Obligor making the payment a certified copy of that Direction; and
(2)the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or
(C)the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph 12.1.1(A)(2) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:
(1)the relevant Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the relevant Obligor; and








(2)the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the Borrowers, on the basis that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the Borrowers to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an "excepted payment" for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA; or
(D)the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Obligor making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under Clause 12.2.7 below.

(2)a New Lender that is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement which it executes,
and, having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to paragraph (A) above.
12.2.8If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with Clause 12.2.7(B) above and:
(A)the relevant Borrower making a payment to that Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender; or
(B)the relevant Borrower making a payment to that Lender has made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender but:
(1)that Borrower DTTP Filing has been rejected by HM Revenue & Customs; or
(2)HM Revenue & Customs has not given the relevant Borrower authority to make payments to that Lender without a Tax Deduction within 60 days of the date of the Borrowers DTTP Filing; or








(C)the relevant Borrower has received authority from HM Revenue & Customs to make payments to such Lender without a deduction for tax as a result of a Borrower DTTP Filing, but as a result of:

it is no longer possible for that Borrower to make payments to the Lender without Tax Deduction by virtue of that authority,

12.2.10Each Borrower shall, promptly on making a Borrower DTTP Filing, deliver a copy of that Borrower DTTP Filing to the Agent for delivery to the relevant Lender.
12.2.11Nothing in this Clause 12.2 shall require a Treaty Lender to:
(A)register under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme;
(B)apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to any Loan if it has so registered; or
(C)file Treaty forms if it has included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with Clause 12.2.7(B)(1) above and an Obligor making that payment has not complied with its obligations under Clause 12.2.8 above.

12.3.2Clause 12.3.1 above shall not apply:
(A)with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party:
(1)under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or








(2)under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party's Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,
if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or
(B)to the extent a loss, liability or cost:
(1)is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up);
(2)would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Clause 12.2.4 (Tax gross-up) applied; or
(3)relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.

12.4.2that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,
the Finance Party shall pay an amount to that Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by that Obligor.
12.5Lender Status Confirmation
Each Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement which it executes on becoming a Party, and for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to any Obligor, which of the following categories it falls in:
12.5.1not a Qualifying Lender;
12.5.2a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or
12.5.3a Treaty Lender.
If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 12.5 then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Borrowers). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 12.5.
12.6Stamp taxes








The Borrowers shall pay and, within seven Business Days of demand, indemnify each Secured Party against any cost, loss or liability that Secured Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, land and buildings transaction tax, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document unless, in the case of registration, such registration is due to a voluntary registration of any Finance Document by a Secured Party which is not required or desirable to maintain, preserve, establish, perfect or enforce any right, title or interest of a Secured Party under any Finance Document and such registration is not requested by the Borrowers.
12.7VAT
12.7.1All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to Clause 12.7.2 below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such 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 that VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).
12.7.2If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "Supplier") to any other Finance Party (the "Recipient") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "Relevant Party") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):
(A)(where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (A) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT payable on that supply; and
(B)(where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.
12.7.3Where 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.
12.7.4Any reference in this Clause 12.7 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).








12.7.5In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.
12.8FATCA Information
12.8.1Subject to Clause 12.8.3 below, each Party shall, within 10 Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party:

(2)not a FATCA Exempt Party;
(B)supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA; and
(C)supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.
12.8.2If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to Clause 12.8.1(A) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.
12.8.3Clause 12.8.1 above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and Clause 12.8.1(C) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:
(A)any law or regulation;
(B)any fiduciary duty; or
(C)any duty of confidentiality.
12.8.4If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with Clause 12.8.1(A) or (B) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 12.8.3 above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.
12.8.5If an Obligor is a US Tax Obligor or the Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA or any other applicable law or regulation require it, each Lender shall, within 10 Business Days of:

(B)where the relevant Obligor is a US Tax Obligor on a Transfer Date and the relevant Lender is a New Lender, the relevant Transfer Date;
(C)the date a new US Tax Obligor accedes as an Obligor; or
(D)where the relevant Obligor is not a US Tax Obligor, the date of a request from the Agent,








supply to the Agent:
(1)a withholding certificate on Form W-8, Form W-9 or any other relevant form; or
(2)any withholding statement or other document, authorisation or waiver as the Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation.
12.8.6The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.8.5 above to the relevant Obligor.
12.8.7If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Agent by a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.8.5 above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Agent). The Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the relevant Obligor.
12.8.8The Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.8.5 or 12.8.7 above without further verification. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with Clauses 12.8.5, 12.8.6 or 12.8.7 above.
12.9FATCA Deduction
12.9.1Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.
12.9.2Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Borrowers and the Agent and the Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

18.1Guarantee and indemnity
Each Obligor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally:
18.1.1guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each Obligor of all that Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;
18.1.2undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever another Obligor does not pay any amount when due or expressed to be due under or in connection with any Finance Document, that Obligor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and
18.1.3agrees 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 an Obligor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 18 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.
18.2Continuing guarantee
The guarantee under this Clause 18 is continuing 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.
18.3Reinstatement
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 in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Obligor under this Clause 18 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.








18.4Waiver of defences
The obligations of each Obligor under this Clause 18 will not be affected by (and the intention of each Obligor is that its obligation shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding) an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 18 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:
18.4.1any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;
18.4.2the 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;
18.4.3the 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;
18.4.4any 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;
18.4.5any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;
18.4.6any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security; or
18.4.7any insolvency or similar proceedings.
18.5Guarantor Intent
18.5.1Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 18.4 (Waiver of defences), each Obligor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling 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 facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.
18.5.2The guarantee under this Clause 18 is an independent guarantee and shall not be construed as a suretyship (cautionnement). In this respect, any Obligor incorporated in Luxembourg hereby fully waives any rights it may have under the laws of Luxembourg to claim the benefit of the bénéfice de division (under article 2026 of the Luxembourg Civil Code) and the bénéfice de discussion (under article 2021 of the Luxembourg Civil Code).
18.6Immediate recourse
Each Obligor 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 Obligor under this Clause 18. 








This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.
18.7Appropriations
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:
18.7.1refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Obligor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and
18.7.2hold in a suspense account (which, to the extent available to the relevant Finance Party, shall be interest bearing) any moneys received from any Obligor or on account of any Obligor's liability under this Clause 18.
18.8Deferral of Obligors' rights
18.8.1Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise directs, no Obligor will exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 18:
(A)to be indemnified by an Obligor;
(B)to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;
(C)to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party;
(D)to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Obligor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 18.1 (Guarantee and indemnity); and/or
(E)to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor or to exercise or claim any right of set-off or counterclaim against any other Obligor or any other person liable or claim or prove in competition with the Finance Parties in the bankruptcy, administration, liquidation or any other analogous procedure of any other Obligor or any other person liable or have the benefit of, or share in, any payment from or composition with, any other Obligor or any other person liable or any other Security now or hereafter held by the Finance Parties in respect of the obligations of any Obligor under the Finance Documents or for the obligations or liabilities of any other person liable but so that, if so directed by the Agent, it will prove for the whole or any part of its claim in the liquidation, administration, bankruptcy or any other analogous procedure of any other Obligor on terms that the benefit of such proof and of all of the money received by it in respect thereof shall be held on trust for the Finance Parties and applied in or towards discharge of the obligations of the Obligors under the Finance Documents in such manner as the Agent shall deem appropriate.








18.8.2If an Obligor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment mechanics).
18.9Agent's authority
If any Obligor fails to claim or prove in the liquidation, administration, bankruptcy or any other analogous procedure of any other Obligor promptly upon being directed to do so by the Agent as contemplated by Clause 18.8.1(E) (Deferral of Obligors' rights):
18.9.1the Agent may, and is irrevocably authorised on behalf of such Obligor to, file any claims or proofs in such liquidation, administration or bankruptcy or any other analogous procedure on its behalf; and
18.9.2the trustee in bankruptcy, liquidator, assignee or other person distributing the assets of any Obligor or their proceeds is directed to pay distributions on the obligations or liabilities of such Obligor direct to the Agent on behalf of the Finance Parties until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full.
18.10Release of Obligor's right of contribution
If any Obligor (a "Retiring Obligor") ceases to be an Obligor for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of that Retiring Obligor in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents or as a result of the enforcement of any Transaction Security then on the date such Retiring Obligor ceases to be an Obligor:
18.10.1that Retiring Obligor is released by each other Obligor from any liability (whether past, present or future and whether actual or contingent) to make a contribution to any other Obligor arising by reason of the performance by any other Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or the enforcement of any Transaction Security; and
18.10.2each other Obligor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents or the enforcement of any Transaction Security to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Obligor.
18.11Additional security
This guarantee described in this Clause 18 is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party.
18.12Further assurance
Each Obligor agrees that it shall promptly, following reasonable written request from the Agent, execute and deliver at its own expense any document (executed as a deed or under hand in such form as the Agent may reasonably request and provided that it is on no more onerous terms than the terms of this Clause 18) and do any act or thing, in each case only so far as is necessary in order to confirm or establish the validity and enforceability of the guarantee and indemnity intended to be created by it under this Clause 18.

25.5Procedure for transfer
25.5.1Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 25.2 (Conditions of assignment and transfer) a transfer is effected in accordance with Clause 25.5.3 below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

(A)to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents each Obligor and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents shall be cancelled (being the "Discharged Rights and Obligations");
(B)each Obligor and the New Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another which differ from the Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as that Obligor and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Obligor and the Existing Lender;
(C)the Agent, the Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent, the Arranger and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and
(D)the New Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender".

25.6.4Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 25.6 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 25.5 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by that Obligor from the obligations owed to that Obligor by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in Clause 25.2 (Conditions of assignment and transfer).

25.9.1any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to any bank, financial institution, governmental authority or department, or to a federal reserve or central bank; and
25.9.2any charge, assignment or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities,
except that no such charge, assignment or Security shall:
(A)release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, 








assignment or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or
(B)require any payments to be made by an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents. 
25.10Pro rata interest settlement
25.10.1If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a "pro rata basis" to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 25.5 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 25.6 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):

(B)the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that, for the avoidance of doubt:
(1)when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and
(2)the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 25.10, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.
25.10.2In this Clause 25 references to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.
25.10.3An Existing Lender which retains the right to the Accrued Amounts pursuant to this Clause 25.10 (Pro rata interest settlement) but which does not have a Commitment shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of ascertaining whether the agreement of any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents.
25.11Prohibition on Debt Purchase Transactions
25.11.1No Obligor shall (and each Obligor shall procure that no Restricted Affiliate shall), enter into any Debt Purchase Transaction or beneficially own or control all or any part of the share capital of a company that is a Lender or a party to a Debt Purchase Transaction.

(A)in ascertaining the Lenders or whether any given percentage (including for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments has been obtained to approve any request for consent, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents such Commitment shall be deemed to be zero;
(B)for the purpose of Clause 37 (Amendments and waivers), the Obligors or any such person with whom it has entered into such sub-participations, other agreement or arrangement shall be deemed not to be a Lender; and
(C)such Borrower and Restricted Affiliate that is a Lender agrees that:
(1)in relation to any meeting or conference call to which all the Lenders are invited to attend or participate, it shall not attend or participate in the same if so requested by the Agent or, unless the Agent otherwise agrees, be entitled to receive the agenda or any minutes of the same; and
(2)in its capacity as Lender, unless the Agent otherwise agrees, it shall not be entitled to receive any report or other document prepared at the behest of, or on the instructions of, the Agent or one or more of the Lenders.
25.11.3Any Restricted Affiliate which is or becomes a Lender and which enters into a Debt Purchase Transaction as a purchaser or a participant shall, by 5.00pm on the Business Day following the day on which it entered into that Debt Purchase Transaction, notify the Agent of the extent of the Commitment(s) or amount outstanding to which that Debt Purchase Transaction relates. The Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, disclose such information to the Lenders.

27.13.9The Agent shall resign in accordance with Clause 27.13.2 above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to Clause 27.13.3 above) if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:

9.WAIVER OF DEFENCES
9.1The obligations of the Guarantor under this Guarantee will not be affected by (and the intention of the Guarantor is that its obligations shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding) an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 9, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Guarantee (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Secured Party) including:
9.1.1any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Transaction Obligor or other person;
9.1.2the release of any Transaction Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any Transaction Obligor or any other person;

9.1.4any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of a Transaction Obligor or any other person;
9.1.5any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of a new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;
9.1.6any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security; 
9.1.7any insolvency or similar proceedings; or








9.1.8any act or omission which would not have discharged or affected the liability of the Guarantor had it been a principal debtor instead of a guarantor or by anything done or omitted which but for this provision might operate to exonerate that Guarantor.
9.2Guarantor Intent
Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 9.1 (Waiver of defences), the Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this Guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling 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 facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

12.1.6to demand or accept repayment in whole or in part of any indebtedness now or hereafter due to that Guarantor from any Transaction Obligor or from any other person liable or accept any Security in respect of the same or dispose of the same.

17.AMOUNTS PAYABLE
17.1Interest
The Guarantor hereby agrees to pay to the Security Agent, in respect of any amount demanded from it in accordance with this Guarantee (to the extent that interest on such amount is not otherwise being paid pursuant to any agreement between that Guarantor and the relevant Secured Party), interest from first demand by the Security Agent of any Transaction Obligor:
17.1.1at the rate of interest payable or deemed to be payable by such Transaction Obligor in respect of the amount demanded as calculated and compounded in accordance with any agreement between the relevant Secured Party and such Transaction Obligor with respect to such amount; or

(2%) per annum above the interest cost to the relevant Secured Party (as conclusively determined by that Secured Party) of funding the amount demanded, such interest being calculated daily on the basis of a 365 day year and compounded at monthly rests.
17.2Such interest shall accrue due on a daily basis from the demand by the Security Agent until actual payment by the relevant Guarantor (both before and after any further demand or judgment or the liquidation of the relevant Guarantor or any Transaction Obligor).
17.3No Deduction
All payments to be made by the Guarantor under this Guarantee shall be made without any set-off, counterclaim or equity and (subject to the following sentence) free from, clear of and without deduction for any taxes, duties, levies, imposts or charges whatsoever, present or future. If the Guarantor is compelled by the law of any applicable jurisdiction (or by an order of any regulatory authority in such jurisdiction) to withhold or deduct any sums in respect of taxes, duties, levies, imposts or charges from any amount payable to the Security Agent (or any other Secured Party) under this Guarantee or, if any such withholding or deduction is made in respect of any recovery under this Guarantee, that Guarantor shall pay such additional amount so as to ensure that the net amount received by the Security Agent (or such other Secured Party) shall equal the full amount due to it under the provisions of this Guarantee (had no such withholding or deduction been made).
17.4Currency of Payment
The obligation of the Guarantor under this Guarantee to make payments in any currency shall not be discharged or satisfied by any tender, or recovery pursuant to any judgment or otherwise, expressed in or converted into any other currency, except to the extent that tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by the Security Agent (or any other Secured Party) of the full amount of the currency expressed to be payable under this Guarantee.
17.5Currency Indemnity
17.5.1If any sum due from the Guarantor under this Guarantee (a "Sum"), or any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the "First Currency") in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the "Second Currency") for the purpose of:
(A)making or filing a claim or proof against that Guarantor;
(B)obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings; or
(C)applying the Sum in satisfaction of any of the Guaranteed Obligations,








that Guarantor shall, as an independent obligation, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify the relevant Secured Party against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that Secured Party at the time of its receipt of that Sum.
