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



Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the first £45,000,000 aggregate principal amount to be applied in prepayment of the Term Loans
pursuant to Clause 9.3 (Voluntary Prepayment of Term Loans), Clause 9.7 (Excess Cash) or Clause 9.8 (Debt Issues) may be applied in such order of maturity (whether chronological, inverse chronological or on a pro rata

SECTION 5

COSTS OF UTILISATION



|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:



| | (a) | applicable Margin;
| | --- | ------------------



| | (b) | LIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in euro, EURIBOR for that Loan for that Interest Period; and
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | Mandatory Cost, if any.
| | --- | -----------------------



|10.2 | Payment of interest
|---- | -------------------



| | (a) | The Borrower to which a Loan has been made shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (and, if any Interest Period is longer than six Months, on
the dates falling at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period).
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | If any annual audited financial statements delivered under paragraph (a) of Clause 21.1 (Financial Statements) demonstrate that the Margin:
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | should have been varied in accordance with the table set out in the definition of Margin when it has not been; or
| | --- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | should not have been varied in accordance with the table set out in the definition of Margin when it has been,
| | ---- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



in either case by reason of an inaccuracy in the relevant semi-annual
consolidated financial statements, payments of interest shall upon receipt of the relevant audited financial statements by the Facility Agent be adjusted (downwards or, as the case may be, upwards), but without retrospective effect, by such amount
as the Facility Agent shall determine is necessary to give effect to the correct variation in the Margin as demonstrated by the audited financial statements. The Facility Agents determination of the adjustments payable under this Clause 10.2
shall, save in the case of manifest error, be conclusive and the Facility Agent shall provide the Obligors Agent with reasonable details of the calculation of such adjustments.



|10.3 | Default interest
|---- | ----------------



| | (a) | If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on such Unpaid Sum from the due date up to the
date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is one per cent higher than the rate which would have been payable if such Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan
in the currency of the Unpaid Sum for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably).
| | --- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 51 -



---

| | Any interest accruing under this Clause 10.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Facility Agent.
| | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (b) | If any Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:
| | --- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (i) | the first Interest Period for that Unpaid Sum shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (ii) | the rate of interest applying to the Unpaid Sum during that first Interest Period shall be one per cent. higher than the rate which would have applied if the Unpaid Sum had not
become due.
| | ---- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (c) | 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.
| | --- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|10.4 | Notification of rates of interest
|---- | ---------------------------------

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



| | (b) | If the Facility Agent makes any of the changes to an Interest Period referred to in this Clause 11.2, it shall promptly notify the Obligors Agent and the Lenders.

| | (b) | Subject to Clause 4.4 (Maximum number of Utilisations), if a Borrower (or the Obligors Agent on its behalf) requests in a Selection Notice that a Term Loan be divided
into two or more Term Loans, that Term Loan will, on the last day of its Interest Period, be so divided with Base Currency Amounts specified in that Selection Notice, being an aggregate Base Currency Amount equal to the amount of the Term Loan
immediately before its division.
| | --- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCHEDULE 4

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE



|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 Facility 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 Facility 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 Facility Agent. This
percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facility 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 Facility Agent as follows:
|-- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | (a) | in relation to a sterling Loan:
| | --- | -------------------------------



|                       |  |                    
|---------------------- |  | -------------------
|AB + C(B  D) + Ex0.01 |  | per cent. per annum
|100  (A + C)          | 



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



|        |  |                    
|------- |  | -------------------
|Ex 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 10.3 (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.
| | - | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



- 155 -



---

| | 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 Facility Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.
| | - | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| | E | is designated to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facility Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charges
supplied by the Reference Lenders to the Facility 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 FSA Supervision 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 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 Facility Agent, each Reference Lender shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facility Agent, the rate
of charge payable by that Reference Lender 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 Reference Lender as being
the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Lender for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Lender.
|-- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Facility 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
| | --- | --------------------------------------------



- 156 -



---

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



Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility 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 Reference Lender for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility 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 Facility 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 Facility 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 Reference Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.
|--- | -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|11. | The Facility 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 Reference Lender pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|12. | Any determination by the Facility 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 Facility Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company 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.
