              The Facility

            


    

     

    

    Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Lenders shall make available to the Borrower a term loan facility in no more than three (3) Tranches in an aggregate amount not exceeding the Maximum Loan

              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.

              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 an Obligor shall
                be a separate and independent debt.

    The Borrower shall apply all amounts borrowed by it under the Facility only for the purpose of (i) refinancing the Existing Indebtedness, (ii) funding a distribution to the Ultimate Parent, and (iii)
      paying transaction costs and expenses in relation to the Tranches.

    The Borrower may not deliver a Utilisation Request unless the Agent, or its duly authorised representative, has received all of the documents and other evidence listed in Schedule 2, Part I

              (ii)

            	
              all representations and warranties under any of the Finance Documents made or to be made by an Obligor are true and accurate as at that date with reference to the facts and circumstances then existing;

              the Utilisation requested once made would not result in the Loan being greater than the Maximum Loan Amount (in each case as evidenced by the relevant Valuations for the Rigs); and

      conditions referred to in Clause 4.1 and/or Clause 4.2 are satisfied, the Borrower shall ensure that such conditions are satisfied with five (5) Business Days after the Utilisation Date (or such longer period as the Agent may, with the authorisation
      of all Lenders, specify) and any failure of the Borrower to do so within that period shall constitute an immediate Event of Default.

              (a)

            	
              If the conditions set out in this Agreement have been met, each Lender shall make its participation in the Loan available by the Utilisation Date through its Facility Office.

              The amount of each Lender’s participation in the Utilisation will be equal to the proportion borne by its Available Commitment to the Available Facility immediately prior to making the Utilisation. No Lender

                Loss (including the Rig which is sold or which becomes a Total Loss).

                on the earlier of the date falling one hundred and eighty (180) days after the Total Loss Date and the date of receipt by the Agent of the proceeds of insurance relating to such Total Loss.

              If there is any loss in respect of a Rig or a claim under the Insurances in respect of a Rig exceeding the Major Casualty Amount which in each case is not a Total Loss, the Borrower irrevocably authorises,
                and shall procure that all such things are done to enable the Agent to apply any proceeds received from such loss or claim as a prepayment against the relevant Tranche relating to a Rig unless such proceeds are applied within ninety (90)
                days, or within such other period as the Classification Society may advise in writing, of being received towards repairing a Rig in accordance with the relevant Security Documents (or otherwise are used to reimburse a member of the Borrower
                Group for amounts made for such repair) and during which time each member of the Borrower Group shall procure that such funds are immediately credited to and remain in the Earnings Account of the relevant Rig Owner or Rig Operator (as the
                case may be) on and from their receipt.

                shall be payable in respect of a prepayment upon a sale of a Rig); or

    and, for the avoidance of doubt, the relevant Prepayment Fee shall also be due and payable at any time the Loan becomes due and payable at any time for any reason (other than pursuant to paragraphs
      (i) to (iii) above), whether due to acceleration pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (in which case it shall be due immediately upon acceleration (whether by notice or automatically in the case of an Event of Default under either of Clauses 26.6
      (Insolvency) and 26.7 (Insolvency proceedings), by operation of law or otherwise (including where bankruptcy filings or the exercise of any bankruptcy right of power,
      whether in any plan of reorganisation or otherwise, results or would result in a payment, discharge modification or other treatment of the Loan or the Finance Documents that would otherwise evade, avoid, or otherwise disappoint the expectations of
      the Finance Parties in receiving the full benefit of their bargained for Prepayment Fees as provided herein). The Obligors and the Finance Parties acknowledge and agree that any Prepayment Fees due and payable in accordance with the Finance Documents
      shall not constitute unmatured interest, but instead are reasonably calculated to ensure that the relevant Finance Parties receive the benefit of their bargain under the terms of this Agreement.

     

    

    Each Obligor further acknowledges and agrees that, prior to executing this Agreement, it has had the opportunity to review, evaluate and negotiate the Prepayment Fee calculation with its advisors and
      acknowledges that the Prepayment Fee is a reasonable approximation of the Finance Parties’ liquidated damages upon any date of repayment or prepayment under the terms of this Agreement as described above, and, accordingly, no Obligor will contest or
      object to the reasonableness thereof. Each Obligor understands and acknowledges that the Finance Parties have entered into this Agreement in reliance upon the Prepayment Fee. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Finance Parties shall be
      entitled to recover the full amount of the Secured Liabilities, including the Prepayment Fee, in each and every circumstance in which such amount is due pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement, so that the Finance Parties shall receive the
      benefit of their bargain hereunder and otherwise receive full recovery of the agreed-upon return under every possible circumstance, and the Borrower hereby waives any defence to payment, whether such defence may be based in public policy, ambiguity,
      or otherwise. Each Obligor further acknowledges and agrees, and waives any argument to the contrary, that payment of such amounts does not constitute a penalty or an otherwise unenforceable or invalid obligation. Any damages that the Finance Parties
      may suffer or incur resulting from or arising in connection with any breach by the Borrower shall constitute secured obligations owing to the Lenders.

    If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date (after the expiration of any applicable grace period under Clause 26.1 (Non-payment)),







      interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is two per cent. (2%) per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount
      had, during the period of non-payment, constituted an Utilisation in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 shall
      be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent. Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain
      immediately due and payable.

    In this Agreement:

      

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              “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.

                

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

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

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              “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.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              “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).

                

              

            


    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 12 a reference to “determines” or “determined” means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

              Tax gross-up

            


    

     

    

    Each Obligor shall (and shall procure that each other Obligor shall) make all payments to be made by it under any Finance Documents without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by
      law, subject as follows:

     

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              an Obligor shall promptly upon becoming aware that it or any other Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Agent accordingly.
                Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower and any such other Obligor;

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              if a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Borrower or any other Obligor, the amount of the payment due from the Borrower or that other 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;

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              if any Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall (and shall procure that such other 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;

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              within thirty (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 (and shall procure that such other Obligor
                shall) deliver to the 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.

              The Borrower shall (within ten (10) Business Days of demand by the Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been
                (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document.

    if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or

      

    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

              (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 required; and

                payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been made by the Borrower or that other Obligor.

              All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party or any Obligor to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed
                to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to Clause 12.6(b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party or any Obligor under a Finance Document
                and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party or Obligor 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 the Borrower).

              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 Clause 12.6(b)(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

              (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 thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax
                authority.

              Any reference in this Clause 12.6 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a
                reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).

              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.

              guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents;

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

                as if they were the principal obligor; and

              agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party
                immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor (other than the Guarantors) 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 Guarantors under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 17 if the amount claimed had been
                recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

    If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on
      the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of the Guarantors under this Clause 17 will continue or be
      reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

              Guarantors’ intent

            


    

     

    

    Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 17.4 (Waiver of defences), each of the Guarantors expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall

    Each of the Guarantors waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim
      payment from any person before claiming from it or commencing proceedings under this Clause 17. 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 Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on

              (a)

            	
              refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the
                same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantors shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

    All rights which the Guarantors have at any time (whether in respect of this guarantee, a mortgage or any other transaction) against any Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated
      to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents and until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise
      directs, the Guarantors will not exercise any rights which either of them may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 17:

     

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              to be indemnified by an Obligor;

            


       

      

    

    
      	
              (b)

                to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party;

            


       

      

    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Obligor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under
                Clause 17.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

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

              (a)

            	
              Subject to paragraph (b) below, no consent from any Obligor shall be required for any assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              The consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender to any Industrial Competitor, unless the assignment or transfer is made at a time when an Event of Default is
                continuing

              The consent of the Borrower referred to in paragraph (b) above must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) Business Days after the Existing
                Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Borrower within that time.

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

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              performance by the Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all Applicable Laws and Applicable Codes in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which
                the Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

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

              (i)

            	
              a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its Facility Office; and

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office
                under Clause 12 (Tax gross up and indemnities) 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.

                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.

              (i)

            	
              the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;

              has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its Affiliates in connection with its participation in this
                Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and

    In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 27, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any 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:

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

              in the case of any Lender which is a fund, 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, 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 an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance
                Documents.

    If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause
      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):

     

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              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 6 months, on the next of the dates which falls at 6 monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

              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:

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (i)

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

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              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, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

              No Party (other than the Agent, the Security Agent, that Receiver or that Delegate (as applicable)) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of the Agent, the Security Agent, a Receiver
                or a Delegate, in respect of any claim it might have against the Agent, 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 Finance Document or
                any Security Property and any officer, employee or agent of the Agent, the Security Agent, a Receiver or a Delegate may rely on this Clause.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              Neither the Agent nor the Security Agent will 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 Agent or the
                Security Agent (as applicable) if the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) 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 Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) for that purpose.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (d)

            	
              Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Agent or the Security Agent 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 Agent and the Security Agent 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 Agent or the Security Agent.

     

    

    
      	
              (e)

            	
              Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the liability of the Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate, any liability of the Agent, the Security Agent, any
                Receiver or Delegate arising under or in connection with any Finance 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 Agent, 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 Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate at any time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall the Agent, 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 Agent, the Security Agent, the Receiver or Delegate 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 Agent, the Security Agent and every Receiver and every Delegate, within three (3) Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability (including, without limitation, for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever)
                incurred by any of them (otherwise than by reason of the Agent’s, Security Agent’s Receiver’s or Delegate’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct) (or, in the case of any cost, loss or liability pursuant to Clause 33.10 (Disruption to Payment Systems etc.), notwithstanding the Agent’s negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) in
                acting as Agent, Security Agent, Receiver or Delegate under the Finance Documents (unless the relevant Agent, Security Agent, Receiver or Delegate has been reimbursed by an 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 Agent or the Security Agent pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

              (a)

            	
              Each of the Agent and/or the Security 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 Agent or the Security Agent may resign by giving thirty (30) days’ notice to the other Finance Parties and the Borrower, in which case the Majority Lenders (after consultation with the other
                Finance Parties and the Borrower) may appoint a successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable).

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent or Security Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within twenty (20) days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Agent or
                Security Agent (as applicable) (after consultation with the other Finance Parties and the Borrower) may appoint a successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable).

                or Security Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) under the Finance Documents. The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand, reimburse the
                retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) 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.

              Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under
                paragraph (ii) of Clause 29.25 (Winding up of trust) and (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 14.3 (Indemnity to the Agent), Clause
                14.4 (Indemnity to the Security Agent) and this Clause 29.12 (and any fees for the account of the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) 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.

              After consultation with the Borrower, the Majority Lenders may, by giving thirty (30) days’ notice to the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable), require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above.
                In this event, the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above but the cost referred to in paragraph (e) above shall be for the account of the Borrower.

                

              

            


    

    
      	
              (h)

            	
              The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) above) if on or after the
                date which is three (3) months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (i)

            	
              the Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 12.7 (FATCA information) and the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that the Agent will not be (or will have
                ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date;

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 12.7 (FATCA information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party
                on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (iii)

            	
              the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date;

              

            


    

     

    

    and (in each case) the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required if the Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and the
      Borrower or that Lender, by notice to the Agent, requires it to resign.

              In acting as agent or trustee for the Finance Parties, the Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) 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 another division or department of the Agent or Security Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable)
                shall not be deemed to have notice of it.

                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.

                Agent’s principal office as notified to the Finance Parties from time to time) as the Lender acting through its Facility Office:

    unless it has received not less than five (5) Business Days’ prior notice from that Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     

    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              Any Lender may by notice to the Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices, communications, information and documents to be made or despatched to that Lender under the Finance Documents. Such
                notice shall contain the address and electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by that means (and, in each 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, department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 36.2 (Addresses) and
                the 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.

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

     

    

    
      	
              (a)

            	
              the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery to the Agent;

                

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              the 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 Agent and
                distributed in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

                      BEEN INDICATED BY ASTERISKS (“[***]”).

                  

                	 


        

      

    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or
                recovery less any amount which the 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).

              Redistribution of payments

            


    

     

    

    The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between 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 Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

              Recovering Finance Party’s rights

            


    

     

    

    On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 32.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between
      the relevant 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 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 Agent, pay to the 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 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 Obligor.

              (a)

            	
              This Clause 32 (Sharing among the Finance Parties) 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 Obligor.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (b)

            	
              A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a 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 having received notice and did not take separate legal
                or arbitration proceedings.

              On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that Obligor or Lender shall make the same available to the 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 Agent as being customary at the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

              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 Agent) and with such bank as the Agent, in each case, specifies.

    Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 33.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 33.4 (Clawback and pre-funding) be made available by the 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 Agent by not less than five (5) 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).

    The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 34 (Set-off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards
      payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that 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 Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, the 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 Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the 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 Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Agent, calculated by the Agent to
                reflect its cost of funds.

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (c)

            	
              If the Agent 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 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 Agent shall notify the Borrower of that Lender’s identity and the Borrower shall on demand refund it to the Agent; and

               

              

            


    

    
      	
              (ii)

            	
              the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if that Lender fails to do so, the Borrower, shall on demand pay to the Agent the amount (as certified by the Agent) which will indemnify the
                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 Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the

      Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency 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.

    No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Finance Party, any right or remedy under the Finance Documents shall operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy or
      constitute an election to affirm any of the Finance Documents. No election to affirm any of the Finance Documents on the part of any Finance Party shall be 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 this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

              The courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of this

              This Clause 44.1 is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. As a result, no Finance Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the

                within five (5) days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Agent. Failing this, the Agent may appoint another agent for this purpose.
