	1.4	Third Party Rights

	1.5	Designation 

 In accordance with the Original Facilities Agreement, each of the Company
and the Agent designate this Agreement as a Finance Document. 
  

	2.	EFFECTIVE DATE 

  

	2.1	Effective Date 

 Subject to: 

 

	 	(a)	no Event of Default having occurred which is continuing; and 

  

	 	(b)	the representations and warranties set out in Clause 3 (Representations) of this Agreement being true and accurate in all material respects (or, to the extent any materiality test or threshold or qualification
referring to the Legal Reservations or Perfection Requirements or any qualification similar to the foregoing applies, in all respects), 


this Amendment Agreement and the amendments to the Original Facilities Agreement referred to in Clause 5 (Amendments to the Original
Facilities Agreement) shall take effect on the Effective Date in accordance with their terms. 
 For the purposes determining whether an
Event of Default has occurred under the Original Facilities Agreement by reason of any Reorganisation described in paragraphs (b)(i) or (ii) of the definition of “Permitted Merger” or any transaction of the type described in paragraph
(f) of the definition of “Permitted Transaction”, the Effective Date will be treated as having occurred and any Event of Default which has occurred by reason of such Reorganisation or transaction will be deemed to be waived on the
Effective Date. 
  

	2.2	Reservation of Rights 

  

	 	(a)	The waiver referred to in Clause 2.1 (Effective Date) shall apply only to the matters specifically referred to therein and is given in reliance upon all information supplied to the Finance Parties by the Loan
Parties in relation to the matters referred to in the EY Reorganisation Memorandum being true and accurate in all material respects and upon the Loan Parties not omitting to disclose any matter that would result in the request being misleading in
any material respect. Such waiver shall be without prejudice to any rights which the Finance Parties may now or hereafter have (i) in relation to any other circumstances or matters not specifically referred to herein (whether subsisting at the
date hereof or otherwise); or (ii) in relation to any such information being untrue or inaccurate in any material respects or the Loan Parties omitting to disclose any matter that would result in such information being misleading in any
material respect, which right shall remain in full force and effect. 

  

	 	(b)	 This Agreement is without prejudice to any other breach of the Finance Documents or Default or Event of Default not referred to herein which may have
occurred or will occur. In respect of any Default or Event of Default which has occurred or may occur, save as set out in Clause 



  
 3 









	 	
2.1 (Effective Date), nothing in this Agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof and no failure or delay on the part of the Finance Parties or any of them under the Finance Documents in
exercising any rights or remedies in respect thereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights and remedies. 

  

	3.	REPRESENTATIONS 

 Each Loan Party makes the Repeating Representations and the
representations and warranties in Clause 20.12 (No misleading information) of the Facilities Agreement by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing on the date hereof, on the Syndication Date and on the Effective Date as if
references to the “Transaction Documents” and “Finance Documents” were references to the “Transaction Documents” and the “Finance Documents” as amended and supplemented by this Agreement, and with reference to
the facts and circumstances then existing. 
  

	4.	TRANSFER BY NOVATION 

  

	4.1	Transfer by novation 

 On the Syndication Date (whether or not a Default is continuing)
each Existing Lender shall transfer by novation all or part of its Commitment, rights and obligations under the Finance Documents to a New Lender, so that: 
  

	 	(a)	each New Lender will become a Lender under the Facilities Agreement with a Facility A Commitment and a Facility B Commitment as set out in the relevant columns opposite its name in Schedule 2 (The Lenders);


  

	 	(b)	each Existing Lender’s Facility A Commitment and Facility B Commitment shall be reduced to the respective amount set out in the relevant columns opposite its name in Schedule 2 (The Lenders);


  

	 	(c)	each New Lender will become a Lender under the Facilities Agreement with a participation in each Loan as notified to it by the Agent pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (c) of Clause 4.6 (Lenders
participations); and 

  

	 	(d)	each Existing Lender’s participation in each Loan shall be as notified to it by the Agent pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (c) of Clause 4.6 (Lenders participations). 


 

	4.2	Procedure for transfer by novation 

 The transfer by novation set out in Clause 4.1
(Transfer by novation) shall take effect on the Syndication Date so that: 
  

	 	(a)	to the extent that in Clause 4.1 (Transfer by novation) each 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 Loan Parties and each 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”); 

  

	 	(b)	each of the Loan Parties and each 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 Loan Party
or other member of the Group and the relevant New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Loan Party and that Existing Lender; 


  
 4 









	 	(c)	the Agent, the Arrangers, the Security Agent, each New Lender and the 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 each New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent, the Arrangers, the Security Agent and the relevant
Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and 

  

	 	(d)	each New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”. 

  

	4.3	Amounts due on or before the Syndication Date 

 Any amounts payable to the Existing
Lenders by the Loan Parties pursuant to any Finance Document (including, without limitation, all interest, fees and commission payable on the Syndication Date) in respect of any period ending on or before the Syndication Date shall be for the
account of the Existing Lenders and none of the New Lenders shall have any interest in, or any rights in respect of, any such amount. 
  

	4.4	Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders 

  

	 	(a)	Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, the Existing Lenders make no representation or warranty and assume no responsibility to the New Lenders 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 Loan Party; 

  

	 	(iii)	the performance and observance by any Loan Party 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 Lenders, 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 Loan Party and its related entities in connection with its participation in this
Agreement and the Facilities Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by any Existing Lender or any other Finance Party in connection with any Transaction Document or the Transaction Security; and 


 

	 	(ii)	will continue to make its own independent approval of the creditworthiness of each Loan Party and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in
force. 

  

	 	(c)	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges any Existing Lender to: 

  

	 	(i)	accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from any New Lender of any of the rights and obligations transferred by novation under this Agreement; or 


  
 5 









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


 

	4.5	Administrative Details 

 Each New Lender has delivered to the Agent its Facility Office
details and address, fax number and attention details for the purposes of Clause 33.2 (Addresses) of the Facilities Agreement. 
  

	4.6	Lenders’ participations 

  

	 	(a)	The Agent shall notify each New Lender and each Existing Lender of the amount and currency of each Facility A Loan and each Facility B Loan which was made before the Syndication Date and which is to continue to be
outstanding on the Syndication Date and the amount and currency of its participation in that Facility A Loan and that Facility B Loan by 6.00 pm, three Business Days before the Syndication Date. 


 

	 	(b)	Each New Lender shall make its participation in each Facility A Loan and each Facility B Loan referred to in paragraph (a) above available for value on the Syndication Date in accordance with Clause 31.1
(Payments to the Agent) of the Facilities Agreement and, for the avoidance of doubt, will be allocated a participation in each Facility A Loan and each Facility B Loan in the amounts notified by the Agent pursuant to Clause 4.6(a)
(Lenders’ participation) above for value on the Syndication Date. 

  

	4.7	Tax Confirmation 

 Each New Lender for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to
any Loan Party confirms that is a Qualifying Lender. 
  

	4.8	Sponsor Affiliate confirmation 

 Each New Lender confirms that it is not a Sponsor
Affiliate. 
  

	5.	AMENDMENTS TO ORIGINAL FACILITIES AGREEMENT 

  

	 	(a)	The parties hereto agree that with effect from the Effective Date, the Original Facilities Agreement shall be varied and amended and restated by this Agreement and shall be deemed to take effect in the form set out in
Schedule 3 (Form of Facilities Agreement). 

  

	 	(b)	Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Original Facilities Agreement will remain in full force and effect and as from the Effective Date references in the Original Facilities Agreement to “this
Agreement”, “hereunder”, “herein” and like terms or to any provision of the Original Facilities Agreement shall be construed as a reference to the Original Facilities Agreement, or such provision, as amended and restated by
this Agreement. 

  

	 	(c)	Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Finance Documents remain in full force and effect. 

  

	6.	SECURITY AND GUARANTEE CONFIRMATION 

 Each Loan Party hereby represents, warrants and
confirms to and for the benefit of each Finance Party on the date hereof and on the Effective Date that: 
  

	 	(a)	the Security created by the Transaction Security Documents to which it is a party extends where it purports to do so to the liabilities and obligations of the Loan Parties under the Original Facilities Agreement as
amended by this Agreement and that the obligations of the Loan Parties arising under or in connection with this Agreement and the Original Facilities Agreement (as amended by the Agreement) and the other Amendment Documents form part of (but do not
limit) the obligations secured under the Transaction Security Documents; 


  
 6 









	 	(b)	the Security created or conferred under the Transaction Security Documents to which it is a party continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms notwithstanding the Amendment Document and the
amendments to the Finance Documents contemplated by them; and 

  

	 	(c)	subject to certain jurisdictional guarantee limitations, its guarantee of the obligations and liabilities of the other Loan Parties to the Finance Parties on the terms of the Original Facilities Agreement extends where
it purports to do so to the liabilities and obligations of the Loan Parties to the Finance Parties under the Original Facilities Agreement (as amended by this Agreement) and such guarantee continues in full force and effect in accordance with its
terms.

for the purposes of this Agreement and for the transfer by novation effected pursuant to this Agreement.

remedied or waived, provided that if the Parent receives a request from the Agent (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Lenders) to remedy such Event of Default, if that Event of Default is not then remedied within 30 days of such
request it shall be continuing as if it has not been waived (whether or not if it is subsequently remedied). 

  

	 	(iii)	Subject to paragraph (i) above, if the Agent (acting on the instructions of one or more of the Lenders) serves a notice of the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing on a Loan Party, such Event of
Default can only be remedied if it has, in fact, been actually remedied and the Borrower serves notice on the Agent confirming that it has been remedied (and what steps have been taken to effect such remedy). 


 

	 	(iv)	If any or all of the Facilities have been accelerated, no Event of Default which has occurred and is continuing at the time of such acceleration can be remedied (or be deemed to be remedied) without the relevant consent

 SECTION 5 

COSTS OF LOAN 
  

	10.	INTEREST 

  

	10.1	Calculation of interest 

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

	 	(a)	Margin; and 

  

	 	(b)	LIBOR. 

  

	10.2	Payment of interest 

 The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last
day of each Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the dates falling at six Monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period). 
  

	10.3	Default interest 

  

	 	(a)	If a Loan Party fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on any 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 overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a
Loan 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 10.3 shall be immediately payable by the Loan Party on demand by
the Agent. 

  

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


 

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


 

	 	(ii)	the rate of interest applying to that Unpaid Sum during that first Interest Period shall be 2 per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have applied if the Unpaid Sum had not become due.


  

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


  

	10.4	Notification of rates of interest 

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

	11.	INTEREST PERIODS

	 	(c)	If the Borrower fails to deliver a Selection Notice to the Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above, the relevant Interest Period will, subject to Clause 11.2 (Changes to Interest Periods), be one
Month. 

  

	 	(d)	Subject to this Clause 11, the Borrower may select an Interest Period of one, two, three or six Months or any other period agreed between the Borrower and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders in
relation to the relevant Loan). 

  

	 	(e)	An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Termination Date applicable to its Facility. 

  

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


 

	 	(g)	Prior to the Syndication Date, Interest Periods shall be one Month or such other period as the Agent and the Borrower may agree and any Interest Period which would otherwise end during the Month preceding or extend
beyond the Syndication Date shall end on the Syndication Date. 

  

	11.2	Changes to Interest Periods 

  

	 	(a)	Prior to determining the interest rate for a Facility A Loan, the Agent may shorten an Interest Period for any Facility A Loan to ensure there are sufficient Facility A Loans (with an aggregate USD Amount equal to or
greater than the relevant Repayment Instalment) which have an Interest Period ending on a Facility A Repayment Date for the Borrower to make the relevant Repayment Instalment due on that date. 


 

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


 

	11.3	Non-Business Days 

 If an Interest Period would
otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 

 

	11.4	Consolidation and division of Facility A Loans 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, if two or more Interest Periods end on the same date, those Facility A Loans will, unless the Borrower specifies to the contrary in the Selection Notice for the next Interest Period,
be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Facility A Loan on the last day of the Interest Period. 

  

	 	(b)	Subject to Clause 4.3 (Maximum number of Loans) and Clause 5.3 (Currency and amount), if the Borrower requests in a Selection Notice that a Facility A Loan be divided into two or more Facility A
Loans, that Facility A Loan will, on the last day of its Interest Period, be so divided with USD Amounts specified in that Selection Notice, having an aggregate USD Amount equal to the USD Amount of the Facility A Loan immediately before its
division. 


  
 73 









	12.	CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST 

  

	12.1	Absence of quotations 

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

	12.2	Market disruption 

  

	 	(a)	If the Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the
percentage rate per annum which is the sum of: 

  

	 	(i)	the Margin; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender, as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the date falling five Business Days after the Quotation Day (or, if earlier, on the date falling five
Business Days prior to the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period or such later date as may be acceptable to the Agent), to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of
funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source or sources it may, acting in good faith, reasonably select. 

  

	 	(b)	If: 

  

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

  

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


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

	 	(c)	If the Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event has occurred, the Agent shall, as soon as is practicable, notify the Borrower and the Lenders. 


 

	 	(d)	In this Agreement: 

 “Market Disruption Event” means: 

 

	 	(i)	at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks in accordance with the definition of LIBOR and none or only one of the Reference Banks
supplies a rate to the Agent to determine LIBOR for the relevant currency and Interest Period; or 

  

	 	(ii)	at 5.00 p.m. in Singapore on the Business Day immediately following the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in a Loan exceed
40 per cent. of that Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source(s) it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR. 


  
 74 









	12.3	Alternative basis of interest or funding 

  

	 	(a)	If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Borrower so requires, the Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute
basis for determining the rate of interest. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that no substitute basis is agreed at the end of such period of negotiation, the rate of interest shall continue to be determined in accordance with this Agreement.


  

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


 

	 	(c)	The Agent shall promptly inform the Borrower and each Lender of any alternative basis agreed under this Clause 12.3. 

  

	12.4	Break Costs 

  

	 	(a)	The Borrower shall, within five Business Days of demand by a Finance Party, pay to that Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of a Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other
than the last day of an Interest Period for that Loan or Unpaid Sum. 

  

	 	(b)	Each Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

	 	(a)	All payments to be made by a Loan Party to any Finance Party under the Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and without any Tax Deduction, unless such Loan Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, in
which case the sum payable by such Loan Party (in respect of which such Tax Deduction is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that such Finance Party receives a sum net of any deduction or withholding equal to
the sum which it would have received if no such Tax Deduction had been made or required to be made. 

  

	 	(b)	The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that a Loan Party 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

 76 









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

purposes; 

  

	 	(ii)	to any Tax imposed on and calculated by reference to the net income of the Facility Office of such Finance Party actually received or receivable by such Finance Party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any
sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by such Finance Party but not actually receivable) by the jurisdiction in which its Facility Office is located; or 


 

	 	(iii)	to the extent that such payment, liability, interest, penalty, cost or expense: 

  

	 	(A)	relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; 

  

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

  

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


  

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

determines (in its absolute discretion) that:

	 	(b)	that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit, 

 the Finance Party shall pay an
amount to the Loan Party which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the
Loan Party.

respect of any Finance Document. 

  

	14.6	Indirect Tax 

  

	 	(a)	All amounts set out or expressed in a Finance Document to be payable by any Party to a Finance Party shall be deemed to be exclusive of any Indirect Tax. If any Indirect Tax is chargeable on any supply made by any
Finance Party to any Party in connection with a Finance Document, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount of the Indirect Tax (and such Finance Party
must promptly provide an appropriate Indirect Tax invoice to that Party). 

  

	 	(b)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Finance Party against all Indirect Tax incurred by that
Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent the Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment in respect of the Indirect Tax.

	 	(ii)	a Qualifying Lender. 

  

	 	(b)	If a New Lender or an Increase Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 14.7 then such New Lender or Increase Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Loan
Party) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Borrower). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate, Assignment
Agreement or Increase Confirmation shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 14.7.

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party: 

  

	 	(i)	confirm to that other Party whether it is: 

  

	 	(A)	a FATCA Exempt Party; or 

  

	 	(B)	not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 

  

	 	(ii)	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable “passthru payment percentage” or other information required under the US
Treasury Regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA. 


 

	 	(b)	If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to 14.6(a)(a)(i) 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 which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: 


 

	 	(i)	any law or regulation; 

  

	 	(ii)	any fiduciary duty; or 

  

	 	(iii)	any duty of confidentiality. 

  

	 	(d)	If a Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above
applies), then: 

  

	 	(i)	if that Party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 


 

	 	(ii)	if that Party failed to confirm its applicable “passthru payment percentage” then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable
“passthru payment percentage” is 100 per cent., 

 until (in each case) such time as the Party in question
provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 
  

	 	(e)	If the Borrower is a US Tax Loan Party, or where the Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA require it, each Lender shall, within ten Business Days of:

	 	(ii)	where the Borrower is a US Tax Loan Party and the relevant Lender is a New Lender, the relevant Transfer Date; or

 supply
to the Agent: 
  

	 	(iv)	a withholding certificate on Form W-8 or Form W-9 (or any successor form) (as applicable); or 

  

	 	(v)	any withholding statement and other documentation, authorisations and waivers as the Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA. 


The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, documentation, authorisations and waivers it receives from a

demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Borrower or another Loan Party not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on
the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by a Loan Party under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 19 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

ultimate balance of sums payable by the Borrower or any Loan Party under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

obligations of the Borrower or any Loan Party or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in
insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Loan Party under this Clause 19 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred. 

 

	19.4	Waiver of defences 

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

	 	(a)	any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, the Borrower or any Loan Party or other person; 

  

	 	(b)	the release of any other Loan Party or the Borrower or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group; 


  
 86 









	 	(c)	the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, the Borrower or any Loan Party or other person or

	 	(d)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any other person; 


 

	 	(e)	any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any

 Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 19.4
(Waiver of defences), each Loan Party expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or
any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made;
carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made
available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing. 
  

	19.6	Immediate recourse 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraph (b) below, each Loan Party waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security
or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Loan Party under this Clause 19. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary. 


 

	 	(b)	No claim may be made under this Clause 19 (Guarantee and Indemnities) on any Loan Party for any amount which has not yet fallen due or matured unless the Agent has given notice to the Borrower under Clause
24.17(a) (Acceleration) or automatic acceleration has occurred under Clause 24.17 (Acceleration). 

  

	19.7	Appropriations

manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Loan Party shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 


  
 87 









	 	(b)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Loan Party or on account of any Loan Party’s liability under this Clause 19. 


 

	19.8	Deferral of Loan Parties’ rights 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable
by the Borrower or any other Loan Parties under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise directs, neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party will exercise any rights which it
may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 19: 

 

	 	(a)	to be indemnified by the Borrower or any other Loan Party; 

  

	 	(b)	to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of the Borrower or any other Loan Party’s obligations under the Finance Documents; 


 

	 	(c)	to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in
connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party; 

  

	 	(d)	to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring the Borrower or any other Loan Party to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Borrower or any other Loan Party has given a
guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 19.1 (Guarantee and Indemnities); 

  

	 	(e)	to exercise any right of set-off against the Borrower or any other Loan Party; and/or 

  

	 	(f)	to claim or prove as a creditor of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in competition with any Finance Party. 


If a Loan Party 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 Borrower or any other Loan Parties under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and
shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment mechanics).

 If any Loan Party (a
“Retiring Loan Party”) ceases to be a Loan Party in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of that Retiring Loan Party then on the date such Retiring Loan Party ceases to be
a Loan Party: 
  

	 	(a)	that Retiring Loan Party is released by each other Loan Party from any liability (whether past, present or future and whether actual or contingent) to make a contribution to any other Loan Party arising by reason of the
performance by any other Loan Party of its obligations under the Finance Documents; and 

  

	 	(b)	each other Loan Party waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of
any rights of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Loan
Party.

due and payable; 

  

	 	(iii)	declare that all or part of the Loans be payable on demand, at which time they shall immediately become payable on demand by the Agent on the instructions of the Majority Lenders; and 


 

	 	(iv)	exercise or direct the Security Agent to exercise any or all of its rights, remedies, powers or discretions under the Finance Documents. 


 

	 	(b)	 Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, if an Event of Default occurs under Clause 24.7 (Insolvency proceedings) as a result of any
proceedings brought against any Loan Party under the United States Bankruptcy Code of 1978 or any other applicable United States Federal or State bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law (in respect of which automatic acceleration is




  
 122 









	 	
required in order to file a claim in the relevant proceedings), then without notice to such Loan Party or any other act by the Agent or any other person, the Loans to such Loan Party, interest
thereon and all other amounts owed by such Loan Party under the Finance Documents shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, provided that none of the
foregoing shall result in any contingent obligation owed by any other Loan Party under any guarantee under Clause 19 (Guarantee and Indemnities) becoming an actual obligation until the Agent notifies the Borrower (as directed by the
Majority Lenders) or any Loan made to any other Loan Party being accelerated without notice being given to the relevant Loan Party by the Agent (acting on the instruction of the Majority Lenders).

 SECTION 9 

CHANGES TO PARTIES 
  

	25.	CHANGES TO THE LENDERS 

  

	25.1	Assignments and transfers by the Lenders 

 Subject to this Clause 25 and to
Clause 26 (Restriction on Debt Purchase Transactions), an existing Lender (the “Existing Lender”) may: 
  

	 	(a)	assign any of its rights; or 

  

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

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

  

	25.2	Conditions of assignment or transfer 

  

	 	(a)	An Existing Lender must consult with the Borrower for no more than five Business Days before it may make any assignment or transfer or Sub-Participation in accordance with Clause 25.1 (Assignments and transfers
by the Lenders) and must obtain the prior written consent of the Borrower for any assignment or transfer or Sub-Participation to a Restricted Financial Institution unless the assignment, transfer or Sub-Participation 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 (other than a Restricted Financial Institution) of the Existing Lender; or 


 

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

  

	 	(b)	Where the prior written consent of the Borrower is required for an assignment, transfer or Sub-Participation to a Restricted Financial Institution it shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. 


 

	 	(c)	For the purposes of this Clause 25.2, “Restricted Financial Institution” means any hedge fund, whose primary purpose is not to invest in senior debt. 


 

	 	(d)	An assignment, transfer or Sub-Participation of part of a Lender’s participation must be in an amount such that the USD Amount of that Lender’s remaining participation (when aggregated with its
Affiliates’ and Related Funds’ participation) in respect of Commitments or Loans made under a Facility is in a minimum amount of USD 2,000,000. 

  

	 	(e)	An assignment will only be effective on: 

  

	 	(i)	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 and the other Secured Parties as it would have been under if it was an Original Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the performance by the 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
Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender. 


  
 124 









	 	(f)	A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 25.5 (Procedure for transfer) is complied with. 

  

	 	(g)	An Existing Lender may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or change its Facility Office if: 


 

	 	(i)	as a result the Borrower would be obliged to repay all or part of the New Lender’s participation under Clause 7.1 (Illegality); or 


 

	 	(ii)	as a result the Borrower would be obliged to repay, under Clause 7.1 (Illegality), all or part of the participation of such Existing Lender acting through the new Facility Office. 


 

	 	(h)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	a Lender assigns or transfers its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes is Facility Office; and 

  

	 	(ii)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a Loan Party would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under
Clause 15 (Increased Costs), 

 then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only
entitled to receive payment under that Clause 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 (h) shall
not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facilities. 
  

	 	(i)	If any transfer, assignment or Sub-Participation is executed and purported to have effect in breach of the provisions of this Clause 25, the right to vote in respect of the Commitments and participations the
subject thereof shall be suspended and such Commitment and participations shall be ignored in determining decisions requiring a vote by some or all of the Lenders, or a class of them, until such time as there has been compliance with the provisions
contemplated in this section of this Clause 25. 

  

	 	(j)	A copy of each Confidentiality Undertaking required pursuant to any term of this Agreement shall, unless: 

  

	 	(i)	otherwise agreed by the Borrower; or 

  

	 	(ii)	no information is disclosed under or in reliance of such Confidentiality Undertaking, 

 be
provided to the Borrower at least three Business Days prior to any provision of information to the relevant potential new Lender. A copy of any amendment to the Confidentiality Undertaking must be provided to the Borrower promptly upon such
amendment taking effect. 
  

	 	(k)	Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement, confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the 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. 


  
 125 









	25.3	Assignment or transfer fee 

 Unless the Agent otherwise agrees and excluding a transfer,
assignment or Sub-Participation: 
  

	 	(a)	to an Affiliate of a Lender; 

  

	 	(b)	to a Related Fund; or 

  

	 	(c)	made in connection with primary syndication of the Facilities, 

 the New Lender shall, on the
date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of USD 2,500. 
  

	25.4	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 Loan Party; 

  

	 	(iii)	the performance and observance by any Loan Party or any other member of the Group 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, 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 Loan Party 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 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 Loan Party and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in
force. 

  

	 	(c)	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to: 

  

	 	(i)	accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this
Clause 25; or 

  

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

  

	25.5	Procedure for transfer 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 25.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed
Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The 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 the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate. 


  
 126 









	 	(b)	The 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
similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender. 

  

	 	(c)	Subject to Clause 25.9 (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 Loan Parties
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 Loan Parties 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 Loan Party
or other member of the Group and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Loan Party and the Existing Lender; 

  

	 	(iii)	the Agent, the Arrangers, the Security Agent, the New Lender and the 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 Agent, the Arrangers, the Security Agent and the Existing
Lender 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”. 

  

	25.6	Procedure for assignment 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 25.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) an assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly
completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The 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 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
similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender. 

  

	 	(c)	Subject to Clause 25.9 (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;



  
 127 









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

  

	25.7	Copy of Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation to Borrower 


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

	25.8	Security over Lenders’ rights 

 In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders
under this Clause 25, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Loan Party, 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)	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 other Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or


  

	 	(ii)	require any payments to be made by a Loan Party or grant to any person any more extensive rights than those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents. 


 

	25.9	Pro rata interest settlement 

  

	 	(a)	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 25.5
(Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 25.6 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):


  

	 	(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 


  
 128 









	 	(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 for the account of 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 25.9, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.


  

	 	(b)	In this Clause 25.9 references to “Interest Period” shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees. 


 

	26.	RESTRICTION ON DEBT PURCHASE TRANSACTIONS 

  

	26.1	Prohibition on Debt Purchase Transactions by the Group 

 The Parent shall not, and shall
procure that each other member of the Group shall not, enter into any Debt Purchase Transaction or beneficially own all or any part of the share capital of a company that is a Lender or a party to a Debt Purchase Transaction of the type referred to
in paragraphs (b) or (c) of the definition of “Debt Purchase Transaction”. 
  

	26.2	Disenfranchisement on Debt Purchase Transactions entered into by Sponsor Affiliates 

  

	 	(a)	For so long as a Sponsor Affiliate: 

  

	 	(i)	beneficially owns a Commitment; or 

  

	 	(ii)	has entered into a sub-participation agreement relating to a Commitment or other agreement or arrangement having a substantially similar economic effect and such agreement or
arrangement has not been terminated, 

 in ascertaining: 

 

	 	(A)	the Majority Lenders; 

  

	 	(B)	whether: 

  

	 	(1)	any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments; or 

  

	 	(2)	the agreement of any specified group of Lenders, 

 has been obtained to approve any request for
a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents such Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; and such Sponsor Affiliate or the person with whom it has entered into such sub-participation,
other agreement or arrangement shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (A) and (B) above (unless in the case of a person not being a Sponsor Affiliate it is a Lender by virtue otherwise than by beneficially owning
the relevant Commitment). 
  

  
 129 









	 	(b)	Each Lender shall, unless such Debt Purchase Transaction is an assignment or transfer, promptly notify the Agent in writing if it knowingly enters into a Debt Purchase Transaction with a Sponsor Affiliate (a
“Notifiable Debt Purchase Transaction”), such notification to be substantially in the form set out in Part I of Schedule 12 (Form of Notifiable Debt Purchase Transaction Notice). 


 

	 	(c)	A Lender shall promptly notify the Agent if a Notifiable Debt Purchase Transaction to which it is a party: 

  

	 	(i)	is terminated; or 

  

	 	(ii)	ceases to be with a Sponsor Affiliate, 

 such notification to be substantially in the form set
out in Part II of Schedule 12 (Form of Notifiable Debt Purchase Transaction Notice). 
  

	 	(d)	Each Sponsor Affiliate that is a Lender agrees that: 

  

	 	(i)	in relation to any meeting or conference call to which all the Lenders are invited to attend or participate, it shall not attend or participate in the same if so requested by the Agent or, unless the Agent otherwise
agrees, be entitled to receive the agenda or any minutes of the same; and 

  

	 	(ii)	in its capacity as Lender, unless the Agent otherwise agrees, it shall not be entitled to receive any report or other document prepared at the behest of, or on the instructions of, the Agent or one or more of the
Lenders. 

  

	26.3	Sponsor Affiliates’ notification to other Lenders of Debt Purchase Transactions 


Any Sponsor Affiliate which is or becomes a Lender and which enters into a Debt Purchase Transaction as a purchaser or a participant shall, by
5.00 pm on the Business Day following the day on which it entered into that Debt Purchase Transaction, notify the Agent of the extent of the Commitment(s) or amount outstanding to which that Debt Purchase Transaction relates. The Agent shall
promptly disclose such information to the Lenders. 
  

	27.	CHANGES TO THE LOAN PARTIES 

  

	27.1	Assignment and transfers by Loan Parties 

 No Loan Party or any other member of the Group
may assign any of its rights or transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents. 
  

	27.2	Additional Loan Parties 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to compliance with the provisions of paragraphs (c) and (d) of Clause 21.8 (“Know your customer” checks), the Parent may request that any of its Subsidiaries (other than the
Borrower) become a Loan Party. 

  

	 	(b)	The Parent shall procure that any other member of the Group which is a Material Company or is a Holding Company of such a Material Company shall, as soon as possible after becoming a Material Company and, in any event
within 30 days, become an Additional Loan Party to the extent required under Clause 23.28 (Loan Parties). 

  

	 	(c)	A member of the Restricted Group shall become an Additional Loan Party if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Borrower and the proposed Additional Loan Party deliver to the Agent a duly completed and executed Accession Deed; and 


  
 130 









	 	(ii)	the Agent has received all of the documents and other evidence listed in Part II of Schedule 2 (Conditions precedent) in relation to that Additional Loan Party, each in form and substance satisfactory to the
Agent (acting reasonably). 

  

	 	(d)	The Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders promptly upon being satisfied that it has received (in form and substance satisfactory to it) all the documents and other evidence listed in Part II of
Schedule 2 (Conditions precedent). 

  

	 	(e)	Other than to the extent that the Majority Lenders notify the Agent in writing to the contrary before the Agent gives the notification described in paragraph (d) above, the Lenders authorise (but do not require)
the Agent to give that notification. The Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever as a result of giving any such notification. 

  

	 	(f)	The Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) may, on the instructions of the Majority Lenders, agree with the Parent that the requirements under paragraph (c)(ii) above are to be delivered and/or
satisfied at a date later than the date on which the relevant entity becomes an Additional Loan Party. 

  

	 	(g)	The Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) may, on the instructions of the Majority Lenders (but shall not be obliged to), agree a limit on the amount of the liability of the potential Additional
Loan Party under Clause 19 (Guarantee and Indemnities) of this Agreement or other changes to the Finance Documents which in the opinion of the Agent, based on the advice of its legal counsel, are necessary or desirable to overcome any
prohibition or a risk that a guarantee by the potential Additional Loan Party will not be legal, valid, binding, enforceable and effective. The reasonable cost of the advice of legal counsel obtained pursuant to this paragraph (g) shall be for
the account of the Borrower. 

  

	27.3	Resignation of a Loan Party 

  

	 	(a)	The Borrower may request that a Loan Party (other than the Parent or the Borrower) ceases to be a Loan Party by delivering to the Agent a Resignation Letter if: 


 

	 	(i)	that Loan Party is being disposed of by way of a disposal of a Loan Party to a person which is not a member of the Group where that disposal is not prohibited under Clause 23.16 (Disposals) or made with the
approval of the Majority Lenders (and the Borrower has confirmed this is the case) (a “Third Party Disposal”); or 

  

	 	(ii)	all the Lenders have consented to the resignation of that Loan Party. 

  

	 	(b)	The Agent shall accept a Resignation Letter and notify the Borrower and the Lenders of its acceptance if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Borrower has confirmed that no Default is continuing or would result from the acceptance of the Resignation Letter; 

  

	 	(ii)	no payment is due from the Loan Party under Clause 19.1 (Guarantee and Indemnities); and 

  

	 	(iii)	the Borrower has confirmed that it shall ensure that the Disposal Proceeds will be applied in accordance with Clause 8.2 (Application of Proceeds). 


 

	 	(c)	The resignation of that Loan Party shall not be effective until the date of the relevant Third Party Disposal at which time that company shall cease to be a Loan Party and shall have no further rights or obligations
under the Finance Documents as a Loan Party. 


  
 131 









	27.4	Changes to the Loan Parties – FATCA 

  

	 	(a)	No Subsidiary may become an Additional Loan Party, or cease to be a Loan Party, before the date falling ten Business Days after the request of the Borrower in relation thereto has been notified by the Agent to the
Lenders, unless each Lender is a “FATCA Protected Lender”. The Agent shall notify the Lenders reasonably promptly of any such requests from the Borrower. 


 

	 	(b)	If the Agent or a Lender reasonably believes that a Subsidiary becoming an Additional Loan Party, or ceasing to be a Loan Party, may constitute a “material modification” for the purposes of FATCA that may
result (directly or indirectly) in a Party being required to make a FATCA Deduction and the Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) notifies the Borrower and the Agent accordingly, that Subsidiary may, subject to paragraphs (c) below, not
become an Additional Loan Party, or cease to be an Additional Loan Party without the consent of the Agent or that Lender (as the case may be). 

  

	 	(c)	The consent of a Lender shall not be required pursuant to paragraph (b) above if that Lender is a FATCA Protected Lender. 

  

	27.5	Repetition of Representations 

 Delivery of an Accession Deed constitutes confirmation by
the relevant Subsidiary that the representations and warranties referred to in paragraph (e) of Clause 20.30 (Times when representations made) are true and correct in relation to it as at the date of the delivery as if made by
reference to the facts and circumstances then existing. 
  

	27.6	Resignation on disposal 

 If the Loan Party is or is proposed to be the subject of a
Third Party Disposal then any resignation of that Loan Party shall become effective only on the making of that disposal.

	 	(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 Agent or Security Agent in accordance with any instructions given

	 	(b)	In respect of the Security Agent only, paragraph (a) above shall not apply: 

  

	 	(i)	where this Agreement requires the Security Agent to act in a specified manner or to take a specified action; or

decision for any other Lender or group of Lenders, from that Lender or group of Lenders) as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Agent and the Security Agent
may refrain from acting unless and until it receives those instructions or that clarification. 


  
 133 









	 	(d)	Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Lender or group of Lenders under the relevant Finance Document and unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, any instructions given

	 	(e)	The Agent and the Security Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Lender or group of Lenders until it has received any indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion

the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date).

with the Agent and the Borrower) may appoint a successor Security Agent.

or Recipient Parties in accordance with Clause 31.2 (Distributions by the Agent). 

  

	 	(e)	A Paying Party shall, promptly upon request by a Recipient Party and to the extent:

	 	(i)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid amount owing to the Agent under those Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fee or commission due but unpaid under those Finance Documents; and

	35.	PARTIAL INVALIDITY 

 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 nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any
other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired. 
  

	36.	REMEDIES AND WAIVERS 

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

	37.1	Required consents

	 	(d)	Without prejudice to the generality of paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) of Clause 28.9 (Rights and discretions), the Agent may engage, pay for and rely on the services of lawyers in determining the
consent level required for and effecting any amendment, waiver or consent under this Agreement. 

  

	 	(e)	Each Loan Party agrees to any such amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 37.1 which is agreed to by the Borrower. This includes any amendment or waiver which would, but for this paragraph (e), require

	 	(i)	(other than as expressly permitted by the provisions of any Finance Document) the nature or scope of: 

  

	 	(i)	the guarantee and indemnity granted under Clause 19 (Guarantee and Indemnities);

	37.3	Other exceptions

	 	(b)	If the Agent or a Lender reasonably believes that an amendment or waiver may constitute a “material modification” for the purposes of FATCA that may result (directly or indirectly) in a Party being required to

	 	(ii)	does not materially and adversely affect the rights or interests of Lenders in respect of any other Loan or Facility or another class of Lender, 


may be made in accordance with this Clause 37 but as if references in this Clause 37 to the specified proportion of Lenders

	 	(i)	its Commitment(s) shall not be included for the purpose of calculating the Total Commitments under the relevant Facility/ies when ascertaining whether any relevant percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt,
unanimity) of Total Commitments has been obtained to approve that request; and 

  

	 	(ii)	its status as a Lender shall be disregarded for the purpose of ascertaining whether the agreement of any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve that request. 


 

	37.5	Replacement of Lender 

  

	 	(a)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined in paragraph (d) below); or

 then the Borrower
may, on five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by requiring such Lender to (and, to the extent permitted by law, such Lender shall) transfer pursuant to Clause 25 (Changes to the
Lenders) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Lender or other bank, financial institution, trust, fund or other entity (a “Replacement Lender”) selected by the Borrower, which is
acceptable (in the case of any transfer of a Commitment) and which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of the transferring Lender in accordance with Clause 25 (Changes to the Lenders) for a purchase
price in cash payable at the time of transfer in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans and all accrued interest and/or fees (to the extent that the Agent has not given a
notification under Clause 25.9 (Pro rata interest settlement)), Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto (not including any Margin) under the Finance Documents.

	 	(ii)	neither the Agent nor the Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a Replacement Lender; 

  

	 	(iii)	in the event of a replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender or Conflicted Lender such replacement must take place no later than 30 days after the date on which that Lender is deemed
a Non-Consenting Lender or Conflicted Lender; 

  

	 	(iv)	in no event shall the Lender replaced under this Clause 37.5 be required to pay or surrender to such Replacement Lender any of the fees received by such Lender pursuant to the Finance Documents; and

checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to that transfer. 

  

	 	(c)	A Lender shall perform the checks described in paragraph (b)(v) above as soon as reasonably practicable following delivery of a notice referred to in paragraph (a) above and shall notify the Agent and the
Borrower when it is satisfied that it has complied with those checks. 

  

	 	(d)	In the event that: 

  

	 	(i)	the Borrower or the Agent (at the request of the Borrower) has requested the Lenders to give a consent in relation to, or to agree to a waiver or amendment of, any provisions of the Finance Documents;

	 	(A)	any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments under the relevant Facility/ies; or 


 

	 	(B)	the agreement of any specified group of Lenders, 

 has been obtained to approve any request for
a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents, 
 that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments under the
relevant Facility/ies will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the relevant Facility/ies and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender’s Total Commitments being zero, that Defaulting Lender
shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above. 
  

	 	(b)	For the purposes of this Clause 37.6, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:

the transferring Lender in accordance with Clause 25 (Changes to the Lenders) for a purchase price in cash payable at the time of transfer which is either: 
  

	 	(A)	in an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans and all accrued interest and (to the extent that the Agent has not given a notification under Clause
25.9 (Pro rata interest settlement)), Break Costs and other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	(B)	in an amount agreed between that Defaulting Lender, the Replacement Lender and the Borrower and which does not exceed the amount described in paragraph (A) above.
