                Subject to Clause 42.3 (Other exceptions) but

        THE FACILITY

                THE FACILITY

              


      

    

    

    

    
      
        	2.1	
                The Facility

              


      

    

    Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Lenders make available to the
        Borrower a dollar term loan facility in three Tranches in an aggregate amount not exceeding the Total Commitments.

    
      
        	2.2	
                Finance Parties' rights and obligations

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The obligations of each Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several.  Failure by a Finance Party to perform its obligations under the Finance
                    Documents does not affect the obligations of any other Party under the Finance Documents. No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The rights of each Finance Party under or in connection with the Finance Documents are separate and independent rights and any debt arising under the Finance
                    Documents to a Finance Party from a Transaction Obligor is a separate and independent debt in respect of which a Finance Party shall be entitled to enforce its rights in accordance with paragraph (c) below.  The rights of each Finance
                    Party include any debt owing to that Finance Party under the Finance Documents and, for the avoidance of doubt, any part of the Loan or any other amount owed by a Transaction Obligor which relates to a Finance Party's participation in
                    the Facility or its role under a Finance Document (including any such amount payable to the Facility Agent on its behalf) is a debt owing to that Finance Party by that Transaction Obligor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                A Finance Party may, except as specifically provided in the Finance Documents, separately enforce its rights under or in connection with the Finance
                    Documents.

                Borrower's Agent

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The Borrower by its execution of this Agreement irrevocably appoints the Corporate Guarantor to act on its behalf as its agent in relation to the Finance
                    Documents and irrevocably authorises:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                the Corporate Guarantor on its behalf to supply all information concerning itself contemplated by this Agreement to the Finance Parties and to give all
                    notices and instructions (including each Utilisation Request), to make such agreements and to effect the relevant amendments, supplements and variations capable of being given, made or effected by the Borrower notwithstanding that they
                    may affect the Borrower, without further reference to or the consent of the Borrower; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                each Finance Party to give any notice, demand or other communication to the Borrower pursuant to the Finance Documents to the Corporate Guarantor,

              


      

    

    and in each case the Borrower shall be bound as though the Borrower itself had
        given the notices and instructions (including, without limitation, each Utilisation Request) or executed or made the agreements or effected the amendments, supplements or variations, or received the relevant notice, demand or other communication.

    
      
        	(b)	
                Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the
                    Corporate Guarantor or given to the Corporate Guarantor under any Finance Document on behalf of the Borrower or in connection with any Finance Document (whether or not known to the Borrower) shall be

              


      

    

    
      28

      
        


    

    

    

    binding for all purposes on the Borrower as if the Borrower had
        expressly made, given or concurred with it.  In the event of any conflict between any notices or other communications of the Corporate Guarantor and the Borrower, those of the Corporate Guarantor shall prevail.

        	(b)	
                Tranche B, for general working capital purposes of the Group (and more specifically for the financing of the acquisition and installation of the equipment for
                    open loop scrubber systems on Ship A); and

                    open loop scrubber systems on Ship B).

              


      

    

    
      
        	3.2	
                Monitoring

              


      

    

    No Finance Party is bound to monitor or verify the application of any amount
        borrowed pursuant to this Agreement.

        	(a)	
                agree to pay interest on the amount of the funds so prepositioned at the rate described in Clause 8.1 (Calculation of interest) on the basis of successive interest periods of one day and so that interest shall be paid together with the first payment of interest on such Advance after the

                The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the Loan or any part of the Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (each an "Interest Payment Date").

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                If an Interest Period is longer than 3 Months, the Borrower shall also pay interest then accrued on the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan on the dates

        	(a)	
                If a Transaction Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the 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 2 per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period
                    of non-payment, constituted part of the Loan in the currency of the Unpaid Sum for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent. Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 (Default interest) shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Facility Agent.

                If an Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of the Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to the Loan or that
                    part of the 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 the Loan or that
                    part of the Loan; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the rate of interest applying to that Unpaid Sum during that first Interest Period shall be 2 per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have
                    applied if that 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.

        	(g)	
                The first Interest Period for each Tranche shall start on the Utilisation Date relating to such Tranche and, subject to paragraph (i) below, each subsequent
                    Interest Period shall start on the last day of the preceding Interest Period.

                Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the

        	(b)	
                If at or about noon on the Quotation Day none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there shall be no Reference Bank Rate for the relevant

        Interest Period the Facility Agent receives notification from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan exceed 20 per cent. of the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan as appropriate) (the "Relevant Lender") that the cost to it of funding its participation in the Loan or that part of the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select
        would be in excess of LIBOR then Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to the Loan or that part of the Loan (as applicable) for the relevant

                    the case may be) an alternative basis for funding.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Subject to Clause 42.4 (Replacement of Screen Rate),

                In this Agreement:

              


      

    

    "Protected Party" means a Finance Party which is or will be subject to any liability, or required to make any payment, for or on account of Tax in relation to a sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the
        purposes of Tax to be received or receivable) under a Finance Document.

    "Tax Credit" means a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of any Tax.

    "Tax Deduction" means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document, other than a FATCA Deduction.

    "Tax Payment" means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Finance Party under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up)
        or a payment under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity).

    
      
        	(b)	
                Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 12 (Tax
                      Gross Up and Indemnities) reference to "determines" or "determined" means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

                Each Obligor shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(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) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives such notification from a Lender it
                    shall notify the Borrower and that Obligor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after
                    making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                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.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                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 the Facility Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant
                    taxing authority.

        that:

    
      
        	(a)	
                a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which
                    that Tax Payment was received; and

        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 the Obligor.

        each Secured Party against any cost, loss or liability which that Secured Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document.

                VAT

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                All 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,

              


      

    

    
      44

      
        


    

    

    

    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 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 the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

    
      
        	(b)	
                If 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):

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                (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 sub-paragraph (i) 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 chargeable on that supply; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                (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.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(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 of it 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 12.6 (VAT) to any Party
                    shall, at any time when that Party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that
                    time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules (provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union)) so that a
                    reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or
                    representative or head) of that group or unity at the relevant time (as the case may be).

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                In 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.

        	(b)	
                If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to sub-paragraph (i) of paragraph (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.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything and sub-paragraph (iii) of paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any other Party to do
                    anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)

                If 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
                    sub-paragraphs (i) or (ii) of paragraph (a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it

                    obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of a Transaction Obligor other than the Corporate Guarantor 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 the Corporate Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it
                    would have had to pay under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor) if the amount claimed had been
                    recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

        	17.3	
                Reinstatement

              


      

    

    If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations
        of any Transaction Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Secured 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 the Corporate Guarantor under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and
          Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

    
      
        	17.4

    The obligations of the Corporate Guarantor under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor) and in respect of any Transaction Security will not be affected or discharged by an act, omission,
        matter or thing which, but for this Clause 17.4 (Waiver of defences), would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this
        Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor) or in respect of any Transaction Security (without limitation and whether or not known
        to it or any Secured Party) including:

                    Obligor;

        	(e)	
                any 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 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)

        Secured 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 (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document or to enforce any
        Transaction Security) before claiming or commencing proceedings under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - ).  This waiver applies
        irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

    Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Transaction Obligors
        under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

    
      
        	(a)	
                refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Secured 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 the Corporate Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Corporate Guarantor or on account of the Corporate Guarantor's liability under this
                    Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor).

                Deferral of Corporate Guarantor's rights

              


      

    

    All rights which the Corporate Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of
        this guarantee, a mortgage or any other transaction) against the Borrower, any other Transaction Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents and until the end of
        the Security Period and unless the Facility Agent

    
      54

      
        


    

    

    

    otherwise directs, the Corporate Guarantor will not exercise any rights which
        it may have (whether in respect of any Finance Document to which it is a Party or any other transaction) 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 Clause17 (Guarantee and Indemnity - Corporate Guarantor):

    
      
        	(a)

                    of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Secured Party;

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)

                    Corporate Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

    If the Corporate Guarantor 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 Secured Parties by the Transaction Obligors under or in connection with the Finance
        Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Secured Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment Mechanics).

    
      
        	17.8

        addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by, and shall not prejudice, any other guarantee or Security or any other right of recourse now or subsequently held by any Secured Party or any right of set-off or netting or right to combine accounts
        in connection with the Finance Documents.

    Subject to this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders), a Lender (the "Existing Lender") may:

    
      
        	(a)	
                assign any of its rights; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                transfer by novation any of its rights and obligations,

              


      

    

    under the Finance Documents to another bank or financial institution or to a
        trust, fund or other entity which has a banking license (the "New Lender").

    
      
        	27.2	
                Conditions of assignment or transfer

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The consent of the Borrower 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;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)	
                made at a time when a Default is continuing.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent
                    five Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                The consent of the Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be withheld solely because the assignment or transfer may result in an increase to any
                    amount payable under Clause 14.3 (Mandatory Cost).

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                An assignment will only be effective on:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                performance by the Facility Agent of all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to such
                    assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                Each Obligor on behalf of itself and each Transaction Obligor agrees that all rights and interests (present, future or contingent) which the Existing Lender
                    has under or by virtue of the Finance Documents are assigned to the New Lender absolutely, free of any defects in the Existing Lender's title and of any rights or equities which the Borrower or any other Transaction Obligor had against
                    the Existing Lender.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer) is complied with.

              


      

    

    
      90

      
        


    

    

    

    
      
        	(g)	
                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, a Transaction Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the
                    New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) or under that clause as
                    incorporated by reference or in full in any other Finance Document or Clause 13 (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.  This paragraph (g) shall not
        apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facility.

    
      
        	(h)	
                Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement, confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Facility Agent has
                    authority to 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 with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender.

              


      

    

    
      
        	27.3	
                Assignment or transfer fee

              


      

    

    The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes
        effect, pay to the Facility Agent (for its own account) a fee to be agreed between the New Lender and the Facility Agent prior to such assignment or transfer.

    
      
        	27.4	
                Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

              


      

    

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Transaction Documents, the Transaction Security or any other documents;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the financial condition of any Transaction Obligor;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iv)	
                the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Transaction Document or any other document,

              


      

    

    and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

    
      
        	(b)	
                Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties and the Secured Parties that it:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Transaction Obligor and
                    its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender or any other

              


      

    

    
      91

      
        


    

    

    

    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 Transaction Obligor and its related entities throughout the Security
                    Period.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(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 27 (Changes to the Lenders); or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

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

                Procedure for transfer

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 27.2 (Conditions
                      of assignment or transfer), a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New
                    Lender.  The Facility Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with this Agreement and delivered in
                    accordance with this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it
                    has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement),
                    on the Transfer Date:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents and in
                    respect of the Transaction Security, each of the Transaction Obligors and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security and
                    their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security shall be cancelled (being the "Discharged Rights and Obligations");

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                each of the Transaction Obligors 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 Transaction Obligor and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Transaction Obligor and the Existing Lender;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)	
                the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between
                    themselves and in respect of the Transaction Security 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 Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger and the Existing Lenders shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iv)	
                the New Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender".

                Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 27.2 (Conditions
                      of assignment or transfer) an assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the
                    New Lender.  The Facility Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and
                    delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Assignment Agreement.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it
                    has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement),
                    on the Transfer Date:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender its rights under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security expressed to be
                    the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the Existing Lender will be released from the obligations (the "Relevant Obligations") expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement (and any corresponding obligations by which it is bound in respect of the Transaction Security); and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 27.6 (Procedure for assignment) to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Transaction Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by that Transaction Obligor from the obligations owed to that Transaction 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 27.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer).

              


      

    

    
      
        	27.7	
                Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrower

              


      

    

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

    
      
        	27.8	
                Security over Lenders' rights

              


      

    

    In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Transaction Obligor, at any time charge, assign or
        otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:

    
      
        	(a)	
                any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                any 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,

              


      

    

    
      93

      
        


    

    

    

    except that no such charge, assignment or Security shall:

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                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

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                require any payments to be made by a Transaction 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.

        	(a)	
                If the Facility 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 27.5 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 27.6 (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):

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in
                    favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date ("Accrued Amounts") and shall become due and payable to the
                    Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the
                    first day of that Interest Period); and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                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:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(A)	
                when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)	
                the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                In this Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement)
                    references to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.

                Assignment or transfer by Transaction Obligors

        rights or obligations under the Finance Documents.

    
      
        	28.2	
                Release of security

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                If a disposal of any asset subject to security created by a Security Document is made in the following circumstances:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                the disposal is permitted by the terms of any Finance Document;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the Majority Lenders/all the Lenders agree to the disposal;

              


      

    

    
      94

      
        


    

    

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)	
                the disposal is being made at the request of the Security Agent in circumstances where any security created by the Security Documents has become enforceable;
                    or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iv)	
                the disposal is being effected by enforcement of a Security Document,

              


      

    

    the Security Agent may release the asset(s) being disposed of from any security
        over those assets created by a Security Document.  However, the proceeds of any disposal (or an amount corresponding to them) must be applied in accordance with the requirements of the Finance Documents (if any).

    
      
        	(b)	
                If the Security Agent is satisfied that a release is allowed under this Clause 28.2 (Release of security) (at the request and expense of the Borrower) each Finance Party must enter into any document and do all such other things which are reasonably required to achieve that release. 
                    Each other Finance Party irrevocably authorises the Security Agent to enter into any such document.  Any release will not affect the obligations of any other Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents.

                The Facility Agent shall:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as

              	(A)	
                all Lenders if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is an all Lender decision; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)

              	(ii)	
                not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from acting) in accordance with sub-paragraph (i) above (or, if this Agreement stipulates the
                    matter is a decision for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties, in accordance with instructions given to it by that Finance Party or group of Finance Parties).

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Facility Agent shall be entitled to request instructions, or clarification of any instruction, from the Majority Lenders (or, if the relevant Finance
                    Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties, from that Finance Party or group of Finance Parties) as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising
                    any right, power, authority or discretion and the Facility Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives any such instructions or clarification that it has requested.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties under the relevant Finance Document and unless
                    a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, any instructions given to the Facility Agent by the Majority Lenders shall override any conflicting instructions given by any other Parties and will be binding on all Finance Parties.

              


      

    

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                where a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)

              	(iii)	
                in respect of any provision which protects the Facility Agent's own position in its personal capacity as opposed to its role of Facility Agent for the
                    relevant Finance Parties.

        	(e)	
                If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders would in the Facility Agent's opinion have an effect equivalent to an amendment or waiver
                    referred to in Clause 42 (Amendments and Waivers), the Facility Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless
                    consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than the Facility Agent) whose consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                In exercising any discretion to exercise a right, power or authority under the Finance Documents where it has not received any instructions as to the exercise
                    of that discretion the Facility Agent shall do so having regard to the interests of all the Finance Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(g)	
                The Facility Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Finance Party or group of Finance Parties until it has received any
                    indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Finance Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability (together with
                    any applicable VAT) which it may incur in complying with those instructions.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(h)	
                Without prejudice to the remainder of this Clause 29.2 (Instructions),



                    in the absence of instructions, the Facility Agent shall not be obliged to take any action  (or refrain from taking action) even if it considers acting or not acting to be in the best interests of the Finance Parties.  The Facility
                    Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of the Finance Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(i)	
                The Facility Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Finance Party (without first obtaining that Finance Party's consent) in any legal or arbitration
                    proceedings relating to any Finance Document.  This paragraph (i) shall not apply to any legal or arbitration proceeding relating to the perfection, preservation or protection of rights under the Security Documents or enforcement of the
                    Transaction Security or Security Documents.

        	(d)	
                Except where a Finance Document specifically provides otherwise, the Facility Agent is not obliged to review or check the adequacy, accuracy or completeness
                    of any document it forwards to another Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                If the Facility Agent receives notice from a Party referring to any Finance Document, describing a Default and stating that the circumstance described is a
                    Default, it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                If the Facility Agent is aware of the non-payment of any principal, interest, commitment fee or other fee payable to a Finance Party (other than the Facility
                    Agent, the Arranger or the Security Agent) under this Agreement, it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(g)	
                The Facility Agent shall provide to the Borrower within 10 Business Days of a request by the Borrower (but no more frequently than once per calendar month), a
                    list (which may be in electronic form) setting out the names of the Lenders as at that Business Day, their respective Commitments, the address (and the department or officer, if any, for whose attention any communication is to be made)
                    of each Lender for any communication to be made or document

              


      

    

    
      97

      
        


    

    

    

    to be delivered under or in connection with the Finance Documents, the electronic
        mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by electronic mail or other electronic means to and by each Lender to whom any communication under or in connection with the Finance Documents may
        be made by that means and the account details of each Lender for any payment to be distributed by the Facility Agent to that Lender under the Finance Documents.

    
      
        	(h)	
                The Facility Agent shall have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in the Finance Documents to which it is expressed to be
                    a party (and no others shall be implied).

        	(a)	
                Nothing in any Finance Document constitutes the Facility Agent or the Arranger as a trustee or fiduciary of any other person.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                Neither the Facility Agent nor the Arranger shall be bound to account to other Finance Party for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by it for
                    its own account.

        which the Facility Agent receives or recovers in its capacity as Facility Agent shall be applied by the Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 33.5 (Application

        	29.7	
                Business with the Transaction Obligors

        	(a)	
                The Facility Agent may:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                rely on any representation, communication, notice or document believed by it to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                assume that:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(A)	
                any instructions received by it from the Majority Lenders, any Finance Parties or any group of Finance Parties are duly given in accordance with the terms of
                    the Finance Documents; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)	
                unless it has received notice of revocation, that those instructions have not been revoked; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)

              	(A)	
                as to any matter of fact or circumstance which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of that person; or

              


      

    

    
      98

      
        


    

    

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)	
                to the effect that such person approves of any particular dealing, transaction, step, action or thing,

              


      

    

    as sufficient evidence that that is the case and, in the case of paragraph (A)
        above, may assume the truth and accuracy of that certificate.

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Facility Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as agent for the Finance Parties) that:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)

              	(ii)

              	(iii)	
                any notice or request made by the Borrower (other than a Utilisation Request or a Selection Notice) is made on behalf of and with the consent and knowledge of
                    all the Transaction Obligors.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                The Facility Agent may engage and pay for the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or
                    experts.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (c) above or paragraph (e) below, the Facility Agent may at any time engage and pay for the services of any
                    lawyers to act as independent counsel to the Facility Agent (and so separate from any lawyers instructed by the Lenders) if the Facility Agent in its reasonable opinion deems this to be desirable.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                The Facility Agent may rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts (whether
                    obtained by the Facility Agent or by any other Party) and shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of its so relying.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                The Facility Agent may act in relation to the Finance Documents and the Security Property through its officers, employees and agents and shall not:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                be liable for any error of judgment made by any such person; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                be bound to supervise, or be in any way responsible for any loss incurred by reason of misconduct, omission or default on the part of any such person,

              


      

    

    unless such error or such loss was directly caused by the Facility Agent's
        gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

    
      
        	(g)	
                Unless a Finance Document expressly provides otherwise the Facility Agent may disclose to any other Party any information it reasonably believes it has
                    received as agent under the Finance Documents.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(h)	
                Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Facility Agent is not obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would or
                    might, in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(i)	
                Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Facility Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
                    any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
                    against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

                    document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with, any Transaction Document or the Security Property; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                any determination as to whether any information provided or to be provided to any Finance Party or Secured Party is non-public information the use of which
                    may be regulated or prohibited by applicable law or regulation relating to insider dealing or otherwise.

        	(b)	
                as to the performance, default or any breach by any Transaction Obligor of its obligations under any Transaction Document; or

              	(ii)	
                exercising, or not exercising, any right, power, authority or discretion given to it by, or in connection with, any Transaction Document, the Security

              	(A)	
                any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control; or

    including (in each case and without limitation) such damages, costs, losses,

        or revolution; or strikes or industrial action.

    
      
        	(b)	
                No Party other than the Facility Agent may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of the Facility Agent in respect of any claim it might
                    have against the Facility Agent or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Transaction Document or any Security Property and any officer, employee or agent of the Facility
                    Agent may rely on this Clause subject to Clause 1.5 (Third party rights) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                The Facility Agent will not be liable for any delay (or any related consequences) in crediting an account with an amount required under the Finance Documents
                    to be paid by the Facility Agent if the Facility Agent has taken all necessary steps as soon as reasonably practicable to comply with the regulations or operating procedures of any recognised clearing or settlement system used by the
                    Facility Agent for that purpose.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Facility Agent or the Arranger to carry out:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                any "know your customer" or other checks in relation to any person; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                any check on the extent to which any transaction contemplated by this Agreement might be unlawful for any Finance Party,

              


      

    

    on behalf of any Finance Party and each Finance Party confirms to the Facility
        Agent and the Arranger that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Facility Agent or the Arranger.

    
      
        	(e)	
                Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the Facility Agent's liability, any liability of the Facility Agent arising
                    under or in connection with any Transaction Document or the Security Property shall be limited to the amount of actual loss which has been finally judicially determined to have been suffered (as determined by reference to the date of
                    default of the Facility Agent or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any special conditions or circumstances known to the Facility Agent at any time which increase the
                    amount of that loss. In no event shall the Facility Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, whether or not
                    the Facility Agent has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damages.

        	(a)	
                Each Lender shall (in proportion to its share of the Total Commitments or, if the Total Commitments are then zero, to its share of the Total Commitments
                    immediately prior to their reduction to zero) indemnify the Facility Agent, within three Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the Facility Agent (otherwise than by reason of the Facility Agent's gross
                    negligence or wilful misconduct) (or, in the case of any cost, loss or liability pursuant to Clause 33.11 (Disruption to Payment Systems
                      etc.) notwithstanding the Facility Agent's negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Facility Agent) in acting as Facility Agent under

              


      

    

    
      101

      
        


    

    

    

    the Finance Documents (unless the Facility Agent has been reimbursed by a
        Transaction Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document).

    
      
        	(b)	
                Subject to paragraph (c) below, the Borrower shall immediately on demand reimburse any Lender for any payment that Lender makes to the Facility Agent pursuant
                    to paragraph (a) above.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Paragraph (b) above shall not apply to the extent that the indemnity payment in respect of which the Lender claims reimbursement relates to a liability of the
                    Facility Agent to an Obligor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	29.13	
                Resignation of the Facility Agent

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The Facility Agent may resign and appoint one of its Affiliates as successor by giving notice to the other Finance Parties and the Borrower.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                Alternatively, the Facility Agent may resign by giving 30 days' notice to the other Finance Parties and the Borrower, in which case the Majority Lenders may
                    appoint a successor Facility Agent.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Facility Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation was
                    given, the retiring Facility Agent may appoint a successor Facility Agent.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                If the Facility Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer appropriate for it to remain as agent and the
                    Facility Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Facility Agent under paragraph (c) above, the Facility Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to persuade the proposed successor Facility
                    Agent to become a party to this Agreement as Facility Agent) agree with the proposed successor Facility Agent amendments to this Clause 29 (The



                      Facility Agent, the Arranger and the Reference Banks) and any other term of this Agreement dealing with the rights or obligations of the Facility Agent consistent with then current market practice for the appointment and
                    protection of corporate trustees together with any reasonable amendments to the agency fee payable under this Agreement which are consistent with the successor Facility Agent's normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the
                    Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                The retiring Facility Agent shall make available to the successor Facility Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor
                    Facility Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Facility Agent under the Finance Documents.  The Borrower shall, within three Business Days of demand, reimburse the retiring Facility Agent for the
                    amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) properly incurred by it in making available such documents and records and providing such assistance.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                The Facility Agent's resignation notice shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(g)	
                Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Facility Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other
                    than its obligations under paragraph (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 14.4 (Indemnity to the Facility Agent)
                    and this Clause 29 (The Facility Agent, the Arranger and the Reference Banks) and any other provisions of a Finance Document which
                    are expressed to limit or exclude its liability (or to indemnify it) in acting as Facility Agent.  Any fees for the account of the retiring Facility Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on that date).  Any successor
                    and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(h)	
                The Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Facility Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above.  In this event, the Facility Agent
                    shall resign in accordance with

              


      

    

    
      102

      
        


    

    

    

    paragraph (b) above but the cost referred to in paragraph (e) above shall be for
        the account of the Borrower.

    
      
        	(i)	
                The consent of the Borrower (or any other Transaction Obligor) is not required for an assignment or transfer of rights and/or obligations by the Facility
                    Agent.

        	(a)	
                In acting as Facility Agent for the Finance Parties, the Facility Agent shall be regarded as acting through its agency division which shall be treated as a
                    separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                If information is received by a division or department of the Facility Agent other than the division or department responsible for complying with the
                    obligations assumed by it under the Finance Documents, that information may be treated as confidential to that division or department, and the Facility Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it nor shall it be obliged to disclose
                    such information to any Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Facility Agent nor the Arranger is obliged to disclose to any other
                    person (i) any confidential information or (ii) any other information if the disclosure would, or might in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty.

        	(a)	
                Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement),
                    the Facility Agent may treat the person shown in its records as Lender at the opening of business (in the place of the Facility Agent's principal office as notified to the Finance Parties from time to time) as the Lender acting through
                    its Facility Office:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                entitled to or liable for any payment due under any Finance Document on that day; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                entitled to receive and act upon any notice, request, document or communication or make any decision or determination under any Finance Document made or
                    delivered on that day,

              


      

    

    unless it has received not less than five Business Days' prior notice from that
        Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

    
      
        	(b)	
                Each Finance Party shall supply the Facility Agent with any information that the Security Agent may reasonably specify (through the Facility Agent) as being
                    necessary or desirable to enable the Security Agent to perform its functions as Security Agent.  Each Finance Party shall deal with the Security Agent exclusively through the Facility Agent and shall not deal directly with the Security

                    case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, electronic mail address (or such other information), department and officer by that
                    Lender for the purposes of Clause 36.2 (Addresses) and sub-paragraph (ii) of paragraph (a) of Clause 36.5 (Electronic communication) and the Facility Agent

    shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such
        notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender.

                    document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Transaction Document or the Security Property;

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                whether that Finance Party has recourse, and the nature and extent of that recourse, against any Party or any of its respective assets under, or in connection
                    with, any Transaction Document, the Security Property, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection

                Facility Agent's management time

              


      

    

    If a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is
        continuing, any amount payable to the Facility Agent under Clause 14.4 (Indemnity to the Facility Agent), Clause 16 (Costs and Expenses) and Clause 29.12 (Lenders' indemnity to the
          Facility Agent) shall include the cost of utilising the Facility Agent's management time or other resources and will be calculated on the basis of such reasonable daily or hourly rates as the Facility Agent may notify to the Borrower and
        the other Finance Parties, and is in addition to any fee paid or payable to the Facility Agent under Clause 11 (Fees).  The Facility Agent shall
        as soon as reasonably practicable notify the Borrower in writing of any extraordinary management time which the Facility Agent is envisaging to spend and will deliver a budget to the Borrower in respect of such extraordinary management time.

        the Facility Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which the Facility Agent would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply the amount
        deducted in or towards satisfaction of

    
      104

      
        


    

    

    

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

    
      
        	29.19	
                Reliance and engagement letters

              


      

    

    Each Secured Party confirms that each of the Arranger and the Facility Agent
        has authority to accept on its behalf (and ratifies the acceptance on its behalf of any letters or reports already accepted by the Arranger or the Facility Agent) the terms of any reliance letter or engagement letters or any reports or letters

                Clause 30.29 (Permitted Deductions); and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(C)

        	(e)	
                If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders would in the Security Agent's opinion have an effect equivalent to an amendment or waiver
                    referred to in Clause 42 (Amendments and Waivers), the Security Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless
                    consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than the Security Agent) whose consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                In exercising any discretion to exercise a right, power or authority under the Finance Documents where either:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                it has not received any instructions as to the exercise of that discretion; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the exercise of that discretion is subject to sub-paragraph (iv) of paragraph (d) above,

              


      

    

    the Security Agent shall do so having regard to the interests of all the
        Secured Parties.

    
      
        	(g)	
                The Security Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Finance Party or group of Finance Parties until it has received any
                    indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Finance Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability (together with
                    any applicable VAT) which it may incur in complying with those instructions.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(h)	
                Without prejudice to the remainder of this Clause 30.4 (Instructions),



                    in the absence of instructions, the Security Agent may (but shall not be obliged to) take such action in the exercise of its powers and duties under the Finance Documents as it considers in its discretion to be appropriate.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(i)	
                The Security Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Finance Party (without first obtaining that Finance Party's consent) in any legal or arbitration
                    proceedings relating to any Finance Document.  This paragraph (i) shall not apply to any legal or arbitration proceeding relating to the perfection, preservation or protection of rights under the Security Documents or enforcement of the
                    Transaction Security or Security Documents.

        	30.5	
                Duties of the Security Agent

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The Security Agent's duties under the Finance Documents are solely mechanical and administrative in nature.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Security Agent shall promptly forward to a Party the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to the Security Agent for that Party by any
                    other Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                Except where a Finance Document specifically provides otherwise, the Security Agent is not obliged to review or check the adequacy, accuracy or completeness
                    of any document it forwards to another Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                If the Security Agent receives notice from a Party referring to any Finance Document, describing a Default and stating that the circumstance described is a
                    Default, it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                The Security Agent shall have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in the Finance Documents to which it is expressed to be
                    a party (and no others shall be implied).

              


      

    

    
      
        	30.6	
                No fiduciary duties

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                Nothing in any Finance Document constitutes the Security Agent as an agent, trustee or fiduciary of any Transaction Obligor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Security Agent shall not be bound to account to any other Secured Party for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by it for its own account.

              


      

    

    
      
        	30.7	
                Business with a Transaction Obligor

              


      

    

    The Security Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally
        engage in any kind of banking or other business with, any Transaction Obligor.

    
      
        	30.8	
                Rights and discretions

              


      

    

    
      
        	(a)	
                The Security Agent may:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                rely on any representation, communication, notice or document believed by it to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                assume that:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(A)	
                any instructions received by it from the Majority Lenders, any Finance Parties or any group of Finance Parties are duly given in accordance with the terms of
                    the Finance Documents;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)	
                unless it has received notice of revocation, that those instructions have not been revoked;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(C)	
                if it receives any instructions to act in relation to the Transaction Security, that all applicable conditions under the Finance Documents for so acting have
                    been satisfied; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)	
                rely on a certificate from any person:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(A)	
                as to any matter of fact or circumstance which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of that person; or

              


      

    

    
      109

      
        


    

    

    

    
      
        	

              	(B)	
                to the effect that such person approves of any particular dealing, transaction, step, action or thing,

              


      

    

    as sufficient evidence that that is the case and, in the case of paragraph (A)
        above, may assume the truth and accuracy of that certificate.

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Security Agent shall be entitled to carry out all dealings with the other Finance Parties through the Facility Agent and may give to the Facility Agent
                    any notice or other communication required to be given by the Security Agent to any Finance Party.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                The Security Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as security agent for the Secured Parties) that:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                no Default has occurred;

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                any right, power, authority or discretion vested in any Party or any group of Finance Parties has not been exercised; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(iii)	
                any notice or request made by the Borrower (other than a Utilisation Request or a Selection Notice) is made on behalf of and with the consent and knowledge of
                    all the Transaction Obligors.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)	
                The Security Agent may engage and pay for the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or
                    experts.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(e)	
                Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (c) above or paragraph (f) below, the Security Agent may at any time engage and pay for the services of any
                    lawyers to act as independent counsel to the Security Agent (and so separate from any lawyers instructed by the Facility Agent or the Lenders) if the Security Agent in its reasonable opinion deems this to be desirable.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(f)	
                The Security Agent may rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts (whether
                    obtained by the Security Agent or by any other Party) and shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of its so relying.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(g)	
                The Security Agent may act in relation to the Finance Documents and the Security Property through its officers, employees and agents and shall not:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                be liable for any error of judgment made by any such person; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                be bound to supervise, or be in any way responsible for any loss incurred by reason of misconduct, omission or default on the part of any such person,

              


      

    

    unless such error or such loss was directly caused by the Security Agent's
        gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

    
      
        	(h)	
                Unless a Finance Document expressly provides otherwise the Security Agent may disclose to any other Party any information it reasonably believes it has
                    received as security agent under the Finance Documents.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(i)	
                Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Security Agent is not obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would or
                    might, in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(j)	
                Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Security Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur
                    any financial liability in the

              


      

    

    
      110

      
        


    

    

    

    performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any
        right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

    
      
        	30.9	
                Responsibility for documentation

              


      

    

    None of the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate is responsible or liable
        for:

    
      
        	(a)	
                the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger, a

                    anticipation of, under or in connection with any Transaction Document;

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Transaction Document or the Security Property or any other agreement, arrangement or
                    document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with, any Transaction Document or the Security Property; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                any determination as to whether any information provided or to be provided to any Secured Party is non-public information the use of which may be regulated or
                    prohibited by applicable law or regulation relating to insider dealing or otherwise.

        	(b)	
                as to the performance, default or any breach by any Transaction Obligor of its obligations under any Transaction Document; or

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                whether any other event specified in any Transaction Document has occurred.

              


      

    

    
      
        	30.11	
                Exclusion of liability

                Without limiting paragraph (b) below (and without prejudice to any other provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the liability of the Security
                    Agent or any Receiver or Delegate), none of the Security Agent nor any Receiver or Delegate will be liable for:

                    Security Agent, a Receiver or a Delegate in respect of any claim it might have against the Security Agent, a Receiver or a Delegate or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any
                    Transaction Document or any Security Property and any officer, employee or agent of the Security Agent, a Receiver or a Delegate may rely on this Clause subject to Clause 1.5 (Third party rights) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                The Security Agent will not be liable for any delay (or any related consequences) in crediting an account with an amount required under the Finance Documents
                    to be paid by the Security Agent if the Security Agent has taken all necessary steps as soon as reasonably practicable to comply with the regulations or operating procedures of any recognised clearing or settlement system used by the
                    Security Agent for that purpose.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(d)

                    to have been suffered (as determined by reference to the date of default of the Security Agent, Receiver or Delegate or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any special
                    conditions or circumstances known to the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate at any time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate be liable for any loss of profits,
                    goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, whether or not the Security Agent, the Receiver or Delegate has been advised of the possibility of such loss
                    or damages.

                    (d) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 14.5 (Indemnity to the Security Agent) and this Clause 30 (The Security Agent) and any other provisions of a Finance Document which are expressed to limit or exclude its liability (or to
                    indemnify it) in acting as Security Agent.  Any fees for the account of the retiring Security Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on that date).  Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights

        Document shall constitute a restriction or exclusion for the purposes of the Trustee Act 2000.

        proceeds in an interest bearing suspense or impersonal account(s) in the name of the Security Agent with such financial institution (including itself) and for so long as the Security Agent shall think fit (the interest being credited to the
        relevant account) pending the payment from time to time of those moneys in the Security Agent's discretion in accordance with the provisions of Clause 30.28 (Application of receipts).

                Payments to Finance Parties

              


      

    

    If a Finance Party (a "Recovering Finance Party") receives or recovers any amount from a Transaction Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment Mechanics) (a "Recovered Amount") and applies that amount to a payment due to it under the Finance Documents then:

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                the Facility Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the
                    receipt or recovery been received or made by the Facility Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment Mechanics),
                    without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	(c)	
                the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the "Sharing Payment") equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering
                    Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 33.5 (Application of receipts; partial payments).

              


      

    

    
      
        	32.2	
                Redistribution of payments

              


      

    

    The Facility Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by
        the relevant Transaction Obligor and distribute it among the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the "Sharing Finance Parties")



        in accordance with Clause 33.5 (Application of receipts; partial payments) towards the obligations of that Transaction Obligor to the Sharing
        Finance Parties.

                Recovering Finance Party's rights

              


      

    

    On a distribution by the Facility Agent under Clause 32.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from a Transaction Obligor, as between the relevant Transaction
        Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Transaction Obligor.

                Reversal of redistribution

              


      

    

    If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering
        Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

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

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                as between the relevant Transaction Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as
                    not having been paid by that Transaction Obligor.

                    shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Transaction Obligor.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)

                    result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable

        	(a)	
                On each date on which a Transaction Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that Transaction Obligor or Lender shall make
                    an amount equal to such payment available to the Facility Agent (unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document) for value on the due date at the time and in such funds specified by the Facility Agent as being customary at
                    the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in a principal financial
                    centre in such Participating Member State or London, as specified by the Facility Agent) and with such bank as the Facility Agent, in each case, specifies.

                Distributions by the Facility Agent

              


      

    

    Each payment received by the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents for
        another Party shall, subject to Clause 33.3 (Distributions to a Transaction Obligor) and Clause 33.4 (Clawback and pre-funding) be made available by the Facility Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in the
        case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Facility Agent by not less than five Business Days' notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal financial centre of the
        country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London), as specified by that Party or, in the case of an Advance, to such account of such person as may be specified by the
        Borrower in a Utilisation Request.

                Distributions to a Transaction Obligor

              


      

    

    The Facility Agent may (with the consent of the Transaction Obligor or in
        accordance with Clause 34 (Set-Off)) apply any amount received by it for that Transaction Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the
        currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

        	(a)	
                Where a sum is to be paid to the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, the Facility Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that other
                    Party (or to enter into or perform any related exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                Unless paragraph (c) below applies, if the Facility Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Facility Agent had not
                    actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by the Facility Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Facility Agent together with interest on that
                    amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent, calculated by the Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

        	(c)	
                If the Facility Agent has notified the Lenders that it is willing to make available amounts for the account of the Borrower before receiving funds from the
                    Lenders then if and to the extent that the Facility Agent does so but it proves to be the case that it does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to the Borrower:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower of that Lender's identity and the Borrower shall on demand refund it to the Facility Agent; and

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(ii)	
                the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if the Lender fails to do so, the Borrower shall on demand pay to the Facility Agent the
                    amount (as certified by the Facility Agent) which will indemnify the Facility Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before receiving those funds from that Lender.

                If the Facility Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by a
                    Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Facility Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:

              


      

    

    
      
        	

              	(i)	
                first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of, and any other amounts owing to, the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver or any Delegate

              	(ii)	
                secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest and fees due but unpaid to the Lenders under this Agreement;

              	(iv)	
                fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due to any Finance Party but unpaid under the Finance Documents.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                The Facility Agent shall, if so directed by the Majority Lenders, vary, or instruct the Security Agent to vary (as applicable), the order set out in
                    sub-paragraphs (ii) to (iv) of paragraph (a) above.

        	(a)	
                Any payment under the Finance Documents which is due to be made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same

        	(b)

              	(ii)	
                any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of

        either obligation.  If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

    If, at any time, any provision of a Finance Document is or becomes illegal,
        invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions under the law of that jurisdiction nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such

    No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured

        effective unless it is in writing.  No single or partial exercise of any right or remedy shall prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies provided in each Finance Document are

    If the Facility Agent considers that an amount paid or discharged by, or on
        behalf of, a Transaction Obligor or by any other person in purported payment or discharge of an obligation of that Transaction Obligor to a Finance Party under the Finance Documents is capable of being avoided or otherwise set aside on the
        liquidation or administration of that Transaction Obligor or otherwise, then that amount shall not be considered to have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid or discharged for the purposes of the Finance Documents.

        	(a)	
                Unless specifically provided in another Finance Document in relation to that Finance Document, the courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any
                    dispute arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of any Finance Document or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with any

        	(b)	
                The Obligors accept that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Obligor will argue to the

                    proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

              	(ii)	
                agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the relevant Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned.

              


      

    

    
      
        	(b)	
                If any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Borrower (on behalf of all the
