set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the
calculation thereof).

		(b)	Each Accordion Request shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 (or in an amount corresponding to the
then remaining unused amount of the Accordion, if such unused amount is then less than $5,000,000), provided that any increase of the
Facility contemplated by any Accordion Request shall not cause the Facility to exceed the aggregate amount of all credit permitted to
be outstanding as at the date of such Accordion Request, taking into account all applicable Accordion Reductions.



 


		(c)	Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within 30 days of receipt of an Accordion Request whether
or not it agrees, in its sole discretion, to increase its Individual Commitment and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than,

be deemed to have declined to increase its Individual Commitment. It is expressly understood that no Lender shall have any right or obligation
to increase its Individual Commitment pursuant to an Accordion Request.



 


		(d)	The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and each Lender of the Lenders' responses
to each Accordion Request. If there is less than full participation by existing Lenders in an increase under an Accordion Request after
the foregoing procedures are completed, then the Borrower may add one or more new Lenders reasonably acceptable to the Administrative
Agent as parties to this Agreement for purposes of participating in such remaining portion.

each Lender participating in an increase to the Facility pursuant to an Accordion Request shall have its Individual Commitment increased

		(b)	The amount of the Credit Limit will not be reduced at the time, and in the amount, of any prepayment or

the amount of, any repayment of the Facility pursuant to Sections ‎9.1 and will be reduced to
zero on the Maturity Date.



 


		(c)	Upon any reduction of the Credit Limit, the Individual Commitment of each relevant Lender shall thereupon

		3.2	Funding of Loans



 


		(a)	Each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the principal amount
of each Loan under the Facility prior to 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of the extension of credit.



 


		(b)	The Administrative Agent shall, upon fulfilment by the Borrower of the terms and conditions set forth
in ‎Article 12 and unless otherwise irrevocably authorized and directed in the Drawdown
Notice, make such funds available to the Borrower on the date of the extension of credit by crediting the Designated Account (or causing
such account to be credited).



 


		(c)	Unless the Administrative Agent has been notified by a Lender at least one Banking Day prior to the date
of the extension of credit that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of such Loan, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent on the date of the extension
of credit in accordance with the provisions hereof and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available
to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.



 


		(d)	If the Administrative Agent has made such assumption, to the extent such Lender shall not have so made
its Pro Rata Share of the Loan available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith
on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan and all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in
connection therewith together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date such amount is made
available to the Borrower until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that notwithstanding
such obligation, if such Lender fails so to pay, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any rights that the Borrower might have against
such Lender, repay such amount to the Administrative Agent forthwith after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent.



 


		(e)	The amount payable by each Lender to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement shall be set
forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to such Lender and the Borrower (which certificate shall contain reasonable
details of how the amount payable is calculated) and shall constitute prima facie evidence of such amount payable.



 


		(f)	If such Lender makes the payment to the Administrative Agent required herein, the amount so paid shall
constitute such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan for purposes of this Agreement and shall entitle the Lender to all rights and
remedies against the Borrower in respect of such Loan.



 


		3.3	Failure of Lender to Fund Loan



 


		(a)	If any Lender (a “Non-Funding Lender”) fails to make available to the Administrative
Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loan as required and the Administrative Agent has not funded pursuant to



 




    34 


     


    

Section ‎3.2,
the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice of such failure by such Non-Funding Lender to the Borrower and the other Lenders
and such notice shall state that any Lender may make available to the Administrative Agent all or any portion of the Non-Funding Lender’s
Pro Rata Share of such Loan (but in no way shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so) in the place and stead
of the Non-Funding Lender.


 


		(b)	If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place and stead
of a Non-Funding Lender in such circumstances and the aggregate of the funds which such Lenders (collectively called the “Contributing
Lenders” and individually called the “Contributing Lender”) are prepared to make available exceeds the amount
of the advance which the Non-Funding Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it
is prepared to make available its pro rata share of such advance based on the Contributing Lenders’ relative commitments
to advance in such circumstances.



 


		(c)	If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place and stead of a Non-Funding Lender in such
circumstances, then the Non-Funding Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place and stead, forthwith
on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the
date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received
in respect of the Loan from the Borrower. In addition to interest as aforesaid, the Borrower shall pay all amounts owing by the Borrower
to the Non- Funding Lender under this Agreement (with respect to the amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Non-Funding
Lender) to the Contributing Lenders until such time as the Non- Funding Lender pays to the Administrative Agent for the Contributing Lenders
all amounts advanced by the Contributing Lenders on behalf of the Non-Funding Lender.



 


		(d)	No Non-Funding Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees pursuant to Section
7.6 for any period during which that it is a Defaulting Lender.

to the commencement of a proposed Interest Period for any Term Benchmark Loan or the advance of a Base Rate Loan the Administrative Agent
or any Lender reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive and bind the Borrower) that:


 


		(a)	“Term SOFR Rate” or “Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” cannot be determined pursuant to
the definition thereof and the Administrative Agent determines that for any reason in connection with any request for a Term Benchmark
Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term SOFR Rate or Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for any requested Interest Period
with respect to a proposed Term Benchmark Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Administrative Agent of funding
such Loan, (ii) a material disruption in the U.S. money market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable rate
of interest on the basis provided in the definition U.S. Base Rate, or (iii) by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank
market or any bank participants therein, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable rate of interest on the
basis provided in the definition of Existing LIBOR Rate (in each case, the “Relevant Subject Rate”);



 


		(b)	deposits in U.S. Dollars are not being offered to that Lender in the interbank market in the ordinary
course of business;



 




    35 


     


    

		(c)	the making or continuing of the Pro Rata Share of that Lender in any relevant Loan has been made impracticable
by the occurrence of an event (including an act of terrorism) which materially and adversely affects the interbank market;



 


		(d)	Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or Existing LIBOR Rate, as applicable, for the proposed Interest Period, in the
case of a Term Benchmark Loan or Existing LIBOR Loan, respectively, or the U.S. Base Rate, in the case of a Base Rate Loan does not accurately
reflect the effective cost to that Lender of funding its Pro Rata Share in any such Loan; or



 


		(e)	the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Relevant Subject Rate for the requested Loan,



 


(each, a “Market Disruption”),
then that Lender (for the purposes of this Section, the “Affected Lender”) may give notice of such determination to
the Administrative Agent who will promptly notify the Borrower. If an event referred to in paragraph (e) occurs, all Lenders shall be
Affected Lenders and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and all Lenders thereof. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative
Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Affected Lender to make or continue Term Benchmark Loans shall be suspended (to the extent
of the affected Term Benchmark Loans and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Loan, the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative
Agent revokes such notice. If notice of a Market Disruption is given by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, (I) in connection with
any Term Benchmark Loan, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark
Loans (to the extent of the affected Term Benchmark Loans and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Loan, the affected Interest Periods) or,
failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of, or conversion to, a Base
Rate Loan in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans will be deemed to have been converted
into to Base Rate Loans immediately or, in the case of a Base Rate Loan, at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion,
the Borrower shall also pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section ‎3.6, and (II) in the case of any Base Rate Loan or
an Existing LIBOR Loan, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations for a period of not more
than 30 days commencing on the date the Borrower is so notified with a view to agreeing to an alternative basis for determining the Relevant
Subject Rate applicable to the Pro Rata Share of each Affected Lender in each relevant Loan. If no such alternative basis is agreed to
within such period, the Relevant Subject Rate to each relevant Loan shall be the rate per annum which is determined and notified
to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent to be a reasonable approximation of the Relevant Subject Rate prior to the Market Disruption
and consistent with industry standards for such approximation but in no event to exceed the cost to each Affected Lender (as notified
by each Lender to the Administrative Agent) of continuing to fund such Loan (the rate determined pursuant to the preceding two sentences,
the “Alternate Funding Rate”). If the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, determines that the Market Disruption
no longer applies with regard to any Affected Lender, then the Relevant Subject Rate will again be determined in accordance with the definition
thereof without regard to this Section ‎3.5. The Alternate Funding Rate will be determined, in the case of an Existing LIBOR Loan
at or before the commencement of and apply to each applicable Interest Period, and in the case of a Base Rate Loan, on the first day of
each Fiscal Quarter commencing on or subsequent to the date of the occurrence of the Market Disruption until the Market Disruption no
longer applies with regard to each Affected Lender. For avoidance of doubt, a Benchmark Transition Event shall not trigger this Section
‎3.5.


 


		3.6	Time and Place of Payments



 


Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, the
Borrower shall make all payments pursuant to this Agreement or pursuant to any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant to
this Agreement by deposit to the relevant account of the Administrative Agent previously identified in writing by the Administrative Agent
to the Borrower for such purpose before 12:00 noon (New York time) on the day specified for payment and the Administrative Agent shall
be entitled to withdraw the amount of any payment due to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement from such account
on the day specified for payment.


 




    36 


     


    

		3.7	Remittance of Payments



 


Forthwith after the withdrawal from the Designated
Account by the Administrative Agent of any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant
to Section ‎3.6, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to Sections ‎3.3 and ‎8.3, remit to each Lender, in immediately available
funds, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such payment (except to the extent such payment results from a Loan with respect to which
a Lender had failed, pursuant to Section ‎3.2, to make available to the Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share and where any other
Lender has made funds available in the place and stead of a Non-Funding Lender); provided that if the Administrative Agent, on the assumption
that it will receive, on any particular date, a payment of principal (including, without limitation, a prepayment), interest, fees or
other amount under the Facility, remits to each Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment and the Borrower fails to make such payment,
each Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent, forthwith on demand, to the extent that such amount is not recovered from the
Borrower on demand and after reasonable efforts by the Administrative Agent to collect such amount (without in any way obligating the
Administrative Agent to take any legal action with respect to such collection), such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the payment made
to it pursuant hereto together with interest thereon at the then prevailing interbank rate for each day from the date such amount is remitted
to the Lenders until the date such amount is paid or repaid to the Administrative Agent, the exact amount of the repayment required to
be made by the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement to be as set forth in a certificate delivered by the Administrative Agent to each Lender,
which certificate shall constitute prima facie evidence of such amount of repayment.


 


		3.8	Evidence of Indebtedness



 


		(a)	The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts wherein the Administrative Agent shall record the amount
and type of credit outstanding, each advance and each payment of principal and interest on account of each Loan and all other amounts
becoming due to and being paid to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent under this Agreement.



 


		(b)	The Administrative Agent’s accounts constitute, in the absence of manifest error, prima facie
evidence of the Indebtedness of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement.



 


		3.9	Notice Periods



 


Each Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice, Conversion
Notice and each Prepayment Notice shall be given to the Administrative Agent:


 


		(a)	prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Banking Day prior to the date of any voluntary prepayment
pursuant to Section ‎9.4;



 


		(b)	prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the second Banking Day prior to the date of any drawdown of, rollover
of, conversion into or conversion of a Term Benchmark Loan or an Existing LIBOR Loan, as applicable; and



 


		(c)	prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on the first Banking Day prior to the date of any other drawdown,
rollover or conversion.



 


		3.10	Administrative Agent’s Discretion to Allocate



 


The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to reallocate
the funding or reimbursement obligations among the Lenders in order to ensure, to the greatest extent practicable, that after such funding
the aggregate amount of credit extended under this Agreement by each Lender coincides with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the aggregate
amount of credit extended under the Facility by all of the Lenders, provided that no such allocation shall result in the aggregate amount
of credit extended under this Agreement by any Lender exceeding such Lender’s Individual Commitment under the Facility.


 




    37 


     


    

		3.11	Alternate Rate of Interest



 


		(a)	Subject to paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section ‎3.11,
if:



 


		(i)	the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) prior
to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining
the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current
basis), for such Interest Period; or



 


		(ii)	the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders prior to the commencement of any Interest
Period for a Term Benchmark Loan that the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the
cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Term Benchmark Loan for such Interest Period;



 


then the Administrative
Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter
and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer
exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, any request pursuant to a Drawdown Notice, Rollover Notice, or Conversion Notice, as applicable,
that requests a Term Benchmark Loan shall instead be deemed to be a request for, or a conversion or rollover to, a Base Rate Loan; provided
that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice (x) affect only one type of Loan, then all other types of Loans shall be permitted
and (y) do not affect all Lenders, then requests by the Borrower for Term Benchmark Loans may be made to the Lenders that are not affected
thereby. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative
Agent referred to in this Section ‎3.11(a) with respect to an Adjusted Term SOFR Rate applicable
to such Term Benchmark Loan, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise
to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period
applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan (or the next succeeding Banking Day if such day is not a Banking Day), be converted by the Administrative
Agent to, and shall constitute a Base Rate Loan.


 


		(b)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Finance Document if a Benchmark Transition
Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a
Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with paragraph (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such
Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Finance Document
in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other
party to, this Agreement or any other Finance Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with paragraph (b)
of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace
such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Finance Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New
York time) on the fifth Banking Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment
to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Finance Document so long as the Administrative Agent
has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.
If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.



 


		(c)	In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the
Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in any other Finance Document, any



 




    38 


     


    

amendments implementing
such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other
Finance Document.


 


		(d)	The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a
Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in
connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any
tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to paragraph (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any
determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant
to this Section ‎3.11, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment
or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or
any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent
from any other party to this Agreement or any other Finance Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section
‎3.11.



 


		(e)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Finance Document, at any time (including
in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term
SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes
such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for
the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark
is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any
similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove of such unavailable or non-representative
tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information
service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not
or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition
of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate
such previously removed tenor.



 


		(f)	Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period,
the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted
or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request
into a request for a borrowing of, or conversion to, a Base Rate Loan.



 


		3.12	Illegality



 


Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in Section ‎3.11, if after the date hereof, the adoption of any Applicable Law, or any
change in any Applicable Law (whether adopted before or after the date hereof), or any change in interpretation or administration thereof
by any Official Body, or compliance by any Lender with any such Applicable Law, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make, maintain
or fund its portion of Term Benchmark Loans, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall
forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to
this Section ‎3.12, such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation
will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the good faith reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially
disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement, the Borrower shall
repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of such Lender’s portion of each affected Term Benchmark Loan, together with
accrued interest thereon, on either (a) the Interest Payment Date applicable to such affected Term Benchmark Loans if such Lender may
lawfully continue to maintain and fund its portion of such Term Benchmark Loan to such day or (b) within 10 Banking Days of demand from
such Lender if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain its portion of such affected Term Benchmark Loans to such


 




    39 


     


    

day. Concurrently with repaying
such portion of each affected Term Benchmark Loan, the Borrower may borrow a Base Rate Loan from such Lender, whether or not it would
have been entitled to effect such borrowing and such Lender shall make such Loan of a Base Rate Loan, if so requested, in an amount such
that the outstanding principal amount of the affected Loan made by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Loan
immediately prior to such repayment. The obligation of such Lender to make Term Benchmark Loans is suspended only until such time as it
is once more possible and legal for such Lender to fund and maintain Term Benchmark Loans.

each Lender shall, on the maturity of such Term Benchmark Loan continue to extend credit to the Borrower by way of a Term Benchmark Loan
(without a further advance of funds to the Borrower) in the principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal
amount of the matured Term Benchmark Loan. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders will be under no obligation to continue to extend credit
to the Borrower by way of an Existing LIBOR Loan or to replace all or a portion of any outstanding Existing LIBOR Loan, as the case may
be, if such outstanding Existing LIBOR Loan matures on or after the Effective Date.


 


		5.2	Rollover Notice



 


The notice to be given to the Administrative Agent

		6.1	Converting Loan to Other Type of Loan



 


Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement
and provided that the Borrower has, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section ‎6.2, requested the Lenders
to convert all or a portion of an outstanding Loan into another type of Loan (other than an Existing LIBOR Loan), each Lender shall, on
the date of conversion (which, in the case of the conversion of all or a portion of an outstanding Term Benchmark Loan or an outstanding
Existing LIBOR Loan, as applicable, shall be the date on which such Loan matures), continue to extend credit to the Borrower by way of
the type of Loan into which the outstanding Loan or a portion thereof is converted (with a repayment and a subsequent advance of funds
to the Borrower) in the aggregate principal amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the principal amount of the outstanding
Loan or the portion thereof which is being converted. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders are under no obligation to extend credit
to the Borrower by way of converting all or a portion of an outstanding Existing LIBOR Loan into a new Existing LIBOR Loan if such outstanding
Existing LIBOR Loan matures on or after the Effective Date.


 


		6.2	Conversion Notice



 


The notice to be given to the Administrative Agent
pursuant to Section ‎6.1 (“Conversion Notice”) shall be irrevocable, shall be given in accordance with Section
‎3.9, shall be in substantially the form set out in ‎Schedule H and shall specify:

of Loan to be converted;

		(c)	the principal amount of the Loan or the portion thereof which is to be converted;



 


		(d)	the type and amount of the Loan into which the outstanding Loan is to be converted; and

Term Benchmark Loan shall be automatically converted to a Term Benchmark Loan with the same Interest Period as the maturing Term Benchmark
Loan (ii) a maturing Existing LIBOR Loan shall be automatically converted (x) to a Term Benchmark Loan with the same Interest Period as
a Term Benchmark Loan or (y) to a Base Rate Loan, as the case may be, in each case as though a notice to such effect had been given in
accordance with Section ‎6.2.


 




    41 


     


    

		6.4	Conversion by Lenders



 


Upon written notice to such effect to the Borrower
at such time as a Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, on the maturity date of a Term Benchmark Loan
or Existing LIBOR Loan convert such Term Benchmark Loan or such Existing LIBOR Loan, as the case may be, into a Base Rate Loan as though
a notice to such effect had been given in accordance with Section ‎6.2.


 


Article 7

INTEREST AND FEES


 


		7.1	Interest Rates



 


The Borrower shall pay to the Lenders, in accordance
with Section ‎3.6, interest on the outstanding principal amount from time to time of each Loan at the rate per annum equal
to:


 


		(a)	Adjusted Term SOFR Rate plus the Applicable Margin in the case of each Term Benchmark Loan;



 


		(b)	Existing LIBOR Rate plus the Applicable Margin in the case of each Existing LIBOR Loan; and



 


		(c)	the U.S. Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin in the case of each Base Rate Loan.



 


		7.2	Calculation and Payment of Interest



 


		(a)	Interest on the outstanding principal amount from time to time of each Loan and on overdue interest thereon
shall accrue from day to day from and including the date on which credit is obtained by way of such Loan or on which such overdue interest
is due, as the case may be, to but excluding the date on which such Loan or overdue interest, as the case may be, is repaid in full (both
before and after maturity and as well after as before judgment) and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed
divided by 360, in the case of a either a Term Benchmark Loan or an Existing LIBOR Loan, or 365 days (or 366, in the case of a leap year)
in the case of a Base Rate Loan.



 


		(b)	Accrued interest shall be paid:



 


		(i)	in the case of interest on Base Rate Loans, monthly in arrears on the last day of each month;



 


		(ii)	in the case of interest on Term Benchmark Loans, on the Interest Payment Date; provided that, in the case
of Interest Periods of a duration longer than three months, accrued interest shall be paid no less frequently than every three months
from the first day of such Interest Period during the term of such Interest Period and on the date on which such Term Benchmark Loans
are otherwise required to be repaid; and



 


		(iii)	in the case of interest on Existing LIBOR Loans, on the last day of the applicable Interest Period and
the Maturity Date; provided that, in the case of Interest Periods of a duration longer than three months, accrued interest shall be paid
no less frequently than every three months from the first day of such Interest Period during the term of such Interest Period and on the
date on which such Existing LIBOR Loans are otherwise required to be repaid, including, for greater certainty, the Maturity Date.



 


		7.3	General Interest Rules



 


		(a)	Interest on each Loan and on overdue interest thereon shall be payable in the currency of such Loan.



 




    42 


     


    

		(b)	If the Borrower fails to pay any fee or other amount of any nature payable by it to the Administrative
Agent or the Lenders under this Agreement or under any document, instrument or agreement delivered pursuant to this Agreement on the due
date therefor, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, interest on such overdue amount
in the same currency as such overdue amount is payable from and including such due date to but excluding the date of actual payment (as
well after as before judgment) at the rate per annum, calculated and compounded monthly, which is equal to the U.S. Base Rate plus
the Applicable Margin plus 2.00% per annum (but, for avoidance of doubt, such 2.00% shall not be payable in duplication of any
increase in interest on an Event of Default that is continuing as set out in the definition of Applicable Margin). Such interest on overdue
amounts shall become due and be paid on demand made by the Administrative Agent.



 


		(c)	At any time that an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Applicable Margin shall, if the Administrative
Agent so notifies the Borrower, be increased by an additional 2.00% per annum.



 


		7.4	Selection of Interest Periods



 


With respect to each Term Benchmark Loan and Existing
LIBOR Loan, as applicable, the Borrower shall specify in the Drawdown Notice, Conversion Notice or Rollover Notice, the duration of the
applicable Interest Period provided that:


 


		(a)	Interest Periods shall have a duration from one, two or three months or such other period as otherwise
requested and acceptable to the Administrative Agent (subject to availability and to the right of the Administrative Agent, in its discretion,
to restrict the term or maturity dates of Interest Periods);



 


		(b)	the first Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan shall commence on and include the day on which credit
is obtained by way of such Loan and each subsequent Interest Period applicable thereto shall commence on and include the date of the expiry
of the immediately preceding Interest Period applicable thereto;



 


		(c)	if any Interest Period would end on a day which is not a Banking Day, such Interest Period shall be extended
to the next succeeding Banking Day unless such next succeeding Banking Day falls in the next calendar month, in which case such Interest
Period shall be shortened to end on the immediately preceding Banking Day; and



 


		(d)	no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Maturity Date.



 


		7.5	Applicable Margin Adjustment



 


		(a)	On the second Banking Day following each date the Borrower delivers a compliance certificate to the Administrative
Agent pursuant to Section ‎11.1(b)(iii) which discloses a Leverage Ratio at a Level which differs
from the Level then in effect, the Applicable Margin applicable to all Loans outstanding on the date any such change takes effect will
be adjusted immediately, but without retroactive effect.



 


		(b)	Notwithstanding the foregoing:



 


		(i)	the Applicable Margin shall be Level I in ‎Schedule J on and
from the date of this Agreement until the conclusion of the first Fiscal Quarter following it; and



 


		(ii)	if the Borrower fails to deliver a compliance certificate to the Administrative Agent by the date required
to do so under Section ‎11.1(b)(iii), the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed as from such date to be at Level IV until such failure is
cured, at which time the Applicable



 




    43 


     


    

Margin shall be determined
in accordance with the table set forth in ‎Schedule J, but without any adjustments having retroactive effect.


 


		7.6	Fees



 


		(a)	The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent (for the account of each Lender with respect to its
Pro Rata Share) a fee computed at the rate of twenty-five percent (25%) of the Applicable Margin in effect per annum (based on
the actual number of days in the relevant calendar year, whether three hundred sixty-five (365) or three hundred sixty-six (366), as the
case may be) on the average unused portion of the Total Commitment Amount during each applicable Fiscal Quarter (or portion thereof) in
accordance with this Section ‎7.6.



 


		(b)	The commitment fee described in Section ‎7.6(a) above, shall
accrue from the date of the signing of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the last day of the Availability Period; and (ii) the date
on which the Facility is fully drawn or cancelled.



 


		(c)	The accrued commitment fee is payable on the last day of each successive Fiscal Quarter which ends during
the Availability Period, on the last day of the Availability Period and, if the Total Commitment Amount is cancelled in full, on the amount
of the Total Commitment Amount at the time such cancellation is effective.



 


		(d)	The Borrower shall pay all other fees in the amount and manner agreed between any Finance Party and the
Borrower under this Agreement or in any Fee Letter, as the case may be.



 


Article 8

RESERVE, CAPITAL, INDEMNITY AND TAX PROVISIONS


 


		8.1	Conditions of Credit



 


The obtaining or maintaining of credit under this Agreement shall be
subject to the terms and conditions contained in this ‎Article 8.


 


		8.2	Increased Costs



 


		(a)	Increased Costs Generally. If from time to time any Change in Law shall:



 


		(i)	impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar
requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;



 


		(ii)	subject any Finance Party to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement (other than
Excluded Taxes), any extension of credit made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, except
for Indemnified Taxes covered by Section ‎8.5(h) and the imposition, or any change in the rate,
of any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender; or



 


		(iii)	impose on any Lender or any applicable interbank market or any other condition with respect to the matters
in this Agreement, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or any extension of credit made by such Lender or participation therein;



 


and the result of any of the foregoing
shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any extension of credit (or of maintaining its obligation to make
any such extension of credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender under this Agreement (whether of
principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such
additional amount or amounts as will


 




    44 


     


    

compensate such Lender for such additional
costs incurred or reduction suffered, such amount or amounts to be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the relevant Lender,
acting reasonably.


 


		(b)	Capital and Liquidity Requirements. If any Lender determines in its sole and absolute discretion
that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding
capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the
capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Individual Commitment of such Lender or
the extensions of credit made by it, to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change
in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to, as applicable,
capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts
as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction suffered, such amount or amounts to be determined in the
sole and absolute discretion of the relevant Lender, acting reasonably.



 


		(c)	Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary
to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or
(b) of this Section, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts,
and delivered to the Borrower from time to time shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount
shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.



 


		(d)	Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to
this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, except that the Borrower shall not
be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months
prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of
such Finance Party’s intention to claim compensation therefor, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions
is retroactive, in which case the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.



 


		(e)	Dodd Frank and Basel III. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, no Lender shall
demand compensation pursuant to this Section ‎8.2 in respect of a Change in Law arising from
the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives
thereunder or otherwise in this Agreement if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender, as determined
by such Lender, to demand such compensation in similar circumstances and under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any.
For avoidance of doubt, this Section shall not impose an obligation on a Lender to provide information regarding compensation claimed
and/or paid under any other specific credit agreement; provided that such Lender shall, upon request from the Borrower, provide a written
certificate of a senior officer of the Lender to the Borrower that it is the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such
compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements.



 


		8.3	Failure to Fund as a Result of Change of Circumstances



 


If (i) any Lender but not all of the Lenders who
have Individual Commitments seeks additional compensation pursuant to Section ‎8.2(a) or ‎8.2(b), or (ii) any Lender becomes a
Defaulting Lender or an Non-FATCA Compliant Lender (any Lender described in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section ‎8.3, for the
purposes of this Section, the “Affected Lender”), then the Borrower may indicate to the Administrative Agent in writing
that the Borrower desires to replace the Affected Lender with one or more of the other Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall then
forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any such Lender or Lenders may, in the aggregate, advance all (but not part) of the Affected
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the affected


 




    45 


     


    

credit and, in the aggregate, assume all (but not
part) of the Affected Lender’s Individual Commitment and obligations under the Facility and acquire all (but not part) of the rights
of the Affected Lender and assume all (but not part) of the obligations of the Affected Lender under each of the other Finance Documents
to the extent they relate to the Facility (but in no event shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so). If
one or more Lenders shall so agree in writing (in this Agreement collectively called the “Assenting Lenders” and individually
called an “Assenting Lender”) with respect to such advance, acquisition and assumption, the Pro Rata Share of such
credit of each Assenting Lender and the Individual Commitment and the obligations of such Assenting Lender under the Facility and the
rights and obligations of such Assenting Lender under each of the other Finance Documents to the extent they relate to the Facility shall
be increased by its respective pro rata share (based on the relative Individual Commitments of the Assenting Lenders) of the Affected
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such credit and Individual Commitment and obligations under the Facility and rights and obligations under
each of the other Finance Documents to the extent they relate to the Facility on a date mutually acceptable to the Assenting Lenders and
the Borrower. On such date, the Assenting Lenders shall extend to the Borrower the Affected Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such credit
and shall prepay to the Affected Lender the advances of the Affected Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon
and all other amounts owing to the Affected Lender under this Agreement, and, upon such advance and prepayment by the Assenting Lenders,
the Affected Lender shall cease to be a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer have any rights
or obligations under this Agreement. Upon the assumption of the Affected Lender’s Individual Commitment as aforesaid by an Assenting
Lender, ‎Schedule A shall be deemed to be amended to increase the Individual Commitment of such Assenting Lender by the respective
amounts of such assumption. For certainty, the Borrower shall not be required to pay an Affected Lender that is a Defaulting Lender in
respect of breakage costs or other amounts required to be paid as a result of prepayment to such Lender.


 


		8.4	Indemnity Relating to Credits



 


Upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower (which notice shall be accompanied by a detailed calculation of the amount to be paid by the Borrower), the Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender such amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent or the relevant
Lender for any loss, cost or expense incurred by them:


 


		(a)	in the liquidation or redeposit of any funds acquired by any such Lender to fund or maintain any portion
of a Term Benchmark Loan, an Existing LIBOR Loan as a result of:



 


		(i)	the failure of the Borrower to borrow or make repayments on the dates specified under this Agreement or
in any notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (provided that if any notice specifies the repayment of a Term Benchmark Loan,
an Existing LIBOR Loan at any time other than its maturity date, then the Borrower shall be responsible for any loss, costs or expenses
referred to above); or



 


		(ii)	the repayment or prepayment of any amounts on a day other than the payment dates prescribed in this Agreement
or in any notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent (provided that if any notice specifies the repayment of a Term Benchmark
Loan, an Existing LIBOR Loan at any time other than its maturity date, then the Borrower shall be responsible for any loss, costs or expenses
referred to above).



 


		(b)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify a Lender for any such loss,
cost or expense if such loss, cost or expense is sustained or incurred by such Lender while it is a Defaulting Lender.



 


		8.5	Indemnity for Transactional and Environmental Liability



 


		(a)	The Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, and each Lender and each of
their respective Affiliates, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, and agents (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”)
free and harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities
and damages, and



 




    46 


     


    

expenses in connection
therewith (irrespective of whether such Indemnified Party is a party to the action for which indemnification under this Agreement is sought),
and including, without limitation, reasonable legal fees and out of pocket disbursements and amounts paid in settlement which are approved
by the Borrower (collectively in this Section ‎8.5(a), the “Indemnified Liabilities”),
incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or relating to:


 


		(i)	the extension of credit contemplated in this Agreement;



 


		(ii)	any transaction financed or to be financed in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, with the proceeds
of any credit extended under this Agreement;



 


		(iii)	any actual or threatened investigation, litigation or other proceeding relating to any credit extended
or proposed to be extended as contemplated in this Agreement; or



 


		(iv)	the execution, delivery, performance or enforcement of the Finance Documents and any instrument, document
or agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities that a court of competent jurisdiction determined
arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct or breach by such Indemnified Party
of its obligations under the Finance Documents.



 


		(b)	Without limiting the generality of the indemnity set out in Section ‎8.5(a),
the Borrower hereby further agrees to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Parties free and harmless from and against any and all claims,
demand, actions, causes of action, suits, losses, costs, charges, liabilities and damages, and expenses in connection therewith, including,
without limitation, reasonable and documented legal fees and out of pocket disbursements and amounts paid in settlement which are approved
by the Borrower, of any and every kind whatsoever paid (collectively in this Section ‎8.5(b),
the “Indemnified Liabilities”), incurred or suffered by, or asserted against, the Indemnified Parties or any of them
for, with respect to, or as a direct or indirect result of:



 


		(i)	the presence on or under, or the escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission or release from,
any real property legally or beneficially owned (or any estate or interest which is owned), leased, used or operated by any Obligor or
any Specified Entity of any Hazardous Material, contaminant, pollutant or waste; and



 


		(ii)	any other violation of or liability pursuant to an Environmental Law with respect to any Obligor or Specified
Entity, and regardless of whether caused by, or within the control of, such Obligor, except for any such Indemnified Liabilities that
a court of competent jurisdiction determined arose on account of the relevant Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.



 


		(c)	In case any claim, demand, action, cause of action or suit is threatened or brought against any Indemnified
Party, (i) such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify Borrower of such, (ii) such Indemnified Party shall not settle any such claim
for which indemnity is required hereunder without the prior written consent of Borrower and (iii) if requested by Borrower, such Indemnified
Party shall permit Borrower to assume control of the defense and settlement of any claim for which indemnity is required hereunder and
such Indemnified Party and such Indemnified Party shall cooperate and assist in such defense of such claim if reasonably requested to
do so by Borrower.



 


		(d)	All obligations provided for in this Section ‎8.5 shall survive
indefinitely the permanent repayment of the outstanding credit under this Agreement and the termination of this Agreement. The obligations
provided for in this Section ‎8.5 shall not be reduced or impaired by any investigation made
by or on behalf of the Finance Parties.



 




    47 


     


    

		(e)	The Borrower hereby agrees that, for the purposes of effectively allocating the risk of loss placed on
the Borrower by this Section ‎8.5, each Finance Party shall be deemed to be acting as the agent
or trustee on behalf of and for the benefit of their respective shareholders, officers, directors, employees and agents.



 


		(f)	If, for any reason, the obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section ‎8.5
shall be unenforceable, the Borrower agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each obligation that is
permissible under Applicable Law.



 


		(g)	The indemnity under this Section ‎8.5 shall not apply to matters
specifically dealt with in Sections ‎8.2, ‎8.4, ‎8.5(h)
or ‎11.1(f).



 


		(h)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify a Lender for any such loss,
cost or expense if such loss, cost or expense is sustained or incurred by such Lender while it is a Defaulting Lender.



 


		8.6	Gross-Up for Taxes



 


		(a)	Any and all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under this Agreement or under any other Finance
Document (any such payment being hereinafter referred to as a “Payment”) to or for the benefit of a Finance Party shall
be made without set-off or counterclaim, and free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any and all
present or future Taxes except to the extent that such deduction or withholding is required by law or the administrative practice of any
Official Body. If any such Taxes are so required to be deducted or withheld from or in respect of any Payment made to or for the benefit
of a Finance Party, the Borrower shall:



 


		(i)	promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such requirement;



 


		(ii)	with respect to Indemnified Taxes, pay to such Finance Party in addition to the Payment to which such
Finance Party is otherwise entitled, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by such Finance
Party (free and clear of, and net of, any such Indemnified Taxes, including the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes required to be deducted
or withheld from any additional amount paid by the Borrower under this Section ‎8.6(a), whether
assessable against the Borrower or such Finance Party) equals the full amount the Finance Party, would have received had no such deduction
or withholding been required;



 


		(iii)	make such deduction or withholding;



 


		(iv)	pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with Applicable Law the full amount of Taxes required
to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount of Taxes required to be deducted or withheld from any additional amount paid by
the Borrower, to the Finance Party under this Section ‎8.6(a)), within the time period required
by Applicable Law; and



 


		(v)	as promptly as possible thereafter, forward to the relevant Finance Party an original official receipt
(or a certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Finance Party, evidencing such
payment to such Official Body.



 


		(b)	In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any and all present or future Other Taxes.



 


		(c)	The Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Finance Party, on an after-Taxes basis, for the
full amount of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower hereby indemnifies and holds harmless each Finance Party for
all Taxes, interest, penalties and other liabilities, levied, imposed or assessed against (and whether or not paid directly by) the



 




    48 


     


    

Administrative Agent
or such Finance Party, as applicable, and for all expenses, resulting from or relating to the Borrower’s failure to:


 


		(i)	remit to the Administrative Agent or such Finance Party the documentation referred to in Section ‎8.6(a)(v);
or



 


		(ii)	pay any Taxes or Other Taxes when due to the relevant Official Body (including, without limitation, any
Taxes imposed by any Official Body on amounts payable under this Section ‎8.6).



 


		(d)	The provisions of Section ‎8.6(c) shall apply whether or not
such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally assessed. The Administrative Agent or any Finance Party who pays any Taxes
or Other Taxes shall promptly notify the Borrower of such payment, provided, however, that failure to provide such notice shall not detract
from, or compromise, the obligations of the Borrower under this Section ‎8.6. Payment pursuant
to this indemnification shall be made within 20 days from the date the Administrative Agent or the relevant Finance Party, as the case
may be, makes written demand therefor accompanied by a certificate as to the amount of such Taxes or Other Taxes and the calculation thereof,
which calculation shall be prima facie evidence of such amount.



 


		(e)	If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified
Taxes for which a payment has been made under this Section ‎8.6, the relevant Finance Party shall,
if so requested by the Borrower, cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Indemnified Taxes at the Borrower’s expense.



 


		(f)	If any Finance Party receives a refund of Taxes for which a payment has been made by the Borrower under
this Section ‎8.6, which refund in the good faith judgment of the Finance Party is attributable
to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such payment made by the Borrower, then such Finance Party shall reimburse the Borrower for such
amount (if any, but not exceeding the amount of any payment made under this Section ‎8.6 that
gives rise to such refund), net of out-of- pocket expenses of such Finance Party which the Finance Party determines in its absolute discretion
will leave it, after such reimbursement, in no better or worse position than it would have been in if such Taxes subject to indemnification
and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts
in respect of such Taxes had never been paid. The Borrower, upon the request of a Finance Party, agrees to repay such Finance Party any
portion of any such refund paid over to the Borrower that a Finance Party is required to repay to the relevant Official Body and agrees
to pay any interest, penalties or other charges paid by such Finance Party as a result of or related to such payment to such Official
Body. No Finance Party shall be under any obligation to arrange its tax affairs in any particular manner so as to claim any refund. No
Finance Party shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its tax affairs or computations to the Borrower or any other Person
in connection with this Section ‎8.6(f) or any other provision of this Section ‎8.6.



 


		(g)	Any Finance Party that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Taxes or Other Taxes
(collectively, “Relevant Taxes”) under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes,
or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to Payments shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative
Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly
completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (if any) as will permit such payments to be made without withholding
or at a reduced rate of withholding or a reduced rate of Relevant Taxes. In addition, any Finance Party, if requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (if any) or reasonably requested by the
Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Finance
Party is subject to withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Finance Party shall be required
to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section ‎8.6(g)
that such Finance Party is not legally able to deliver.



 




    49 


     


    

		(h)	Additional amounts payable under Section ‎8.6(a) have the same
character as the Payments to which they relate. For greater certainty, for example, additional amounts payable under Section ‎8.6(a),
in respect of interest payable under a Finance Document, shall be payments of interest under such Finance Document. All payments made
under this Section ‎8.6 shall be subject to the provisions of this Section ‎8.6(h).



 


		(i)	The Borrower’s obligations under this Section ‎8.6 shall
survive without limitation the termination of the Facility and this agreement and all other Credit Documents
and the permanent repayment of the outstanding credit and all other amounts payable under this Agreement or the Credit Documents.



 


Article 9

REPAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS


 


		9.1	Repayment of Facility



 


Subject to the following sentence, the Borrower
shall repay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, in full the outstanding credit under the Facility on the Maturity
Date together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all accrued and unpaid fees with respect thereto. Any payment of principal,
interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory,
at maturity or otherwise), at the request of Borrower, shall be applied to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting
Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent.


 


		9.2	Extension of Maturity Date



 


		(a)	Commencing during the Fiscal Year ended December 31, 2023 and in each subsequent Fiscal Year, the Borrower
may, no earlier than 90 days and no later than 30 days prior to the end of the then-current Fiscal Year, request in writing to the Administrative
Agent (the “Extension Request”) that this Agreement be amended to extend the then current Maturity Date to a date one
year later than the then current Maturity Date. A copy of the Extension Request shall be provided by the Administrative Agent to each
of the Lenders in accordance with Section ‎16.19. Each Lender may, in its sole discretion and
regardless of whether or not there is any Default under this Agreement, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (the “Extension
Response Notice”), not later than 35 days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Extension Request (the “Extension
Response Period”), approve or decline the Extension Request. If any such Lender does not provide an Extension Response Notice
within the Extension Response Period, such Lender shall be deemed to have declined the Extension Request. If the Majority Lenders approve
the Extension Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of such approval and confirm the new Maturity
Date, which new Maturity Date shall become effective on and from the Maturity Extension Date for the Facility. If the Majority Lenders
do not approve the Extension Request, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders and the Maturity Date shall not
be extended.



 


		(b)	If the Majority Lenders but less than all of the Lenders under the Facility approve the Extension Request
within the Extension Response Period (the “Approving Lenders”), the following shall apply:



 


		(i)	On or before the second Banking Day after the Extension Response Period, the Administrative Agent shall
give written notice (the “Acquisition Request Notice”) to the Borrower and each Lender under the Facility identifying
the Approving Lenders and Lender or Lenders under the Facility that have declined or are deemed to have declined the Extension Request
(the “Declining Lenders”) and their respective Individual Commitments with respect to the Facility.



 




    50 


     


    

		(ii)	Any Approving Lender may, at its option, acquire all or any portion of the rights and obligations of the
Declining Lenders under the Credit Documents with respect to the Facility (all of such rights and obligations being herein called the
“Available Amount”) by giving written notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Acquisition Notice”)
of the portion of the Available Amount which it is prepared to acquire (the “Desired Acquisition Amount”). Such Acquisition
Notice shall be given within 10 days following the giving of the Acquisition Request Notice (such deadline being herein called the “Acquisition
Deadline”). If only one Approving Lender gives an Acquisition Notice to the Administrative Agent or if more than one Approving
Lender gives an Acquisition Notice to the Administrative Agent but the aggregate of their Desired Acquisition Amounts is less than or
equal to the Available Amount, then each such Approving Lender shall be entitled to acquire its Desired Acquisition Amount of the rights
and obligations of the Declining Lenders under the Credit Documents with respect to the Facility. If more than one Approving Lender gives
an Acquisition Notice to the Administrative Agent and the aggregate of the Desired Acquisition Amounts is greater than the Available Amount,
then each such Approving Lender shall be entitled to acquire a pro rata share of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders
under the Credit Documents with respect to the Facility, such pro rata share being determined based on the relative Desired Acquisition
Amount of each such Approving Lender. On or before the second Banking Day following the Acquisition Deadline, the Administrative Agent
shall give to the Borrower and each Lender a written notice identifying the Available Amount of each Declining Lender and the portion
thereof to be acquired by each Approving Lender. Each of such acquisitions shall be completed in accordance with the procedures set out
in Section ‎18.5(c) on such date as the Approving Lender or Approving Lenders may select, provided
that such date shall not be later than the then-current Maturity Date (the “Maturity Extension Date”). If the Available
Amount is not completely acquired by the Approving Lenders, the Borrower may locate other Persons who are satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent, acting reasonably, and who acquire all or a portion of the balance of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders under
the Credit Documents on the Maturity Extension Date of such year in accordance with the procedures set out in Section ‎18.5(c).
Any outstanding credit extended by the Declining Lenders to the Borrower which is not so acquired by Approving Lenders shall, at the option
of the Borrower, (x) remain outstanding under this Agreement subject to the terms and conditions hereof but shall be repaid by the Borrower
to the Declining Lender in full on the then current Maturity Date (without giving effect to the Extension Request) or (y) be repaid in
full by the Borrower.



 


		(c)	For each extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section ‎9.2,
the then-current Accordion Reduction under Section ‎0 shall be extended for a corresponding period
and the subsequent Accordion Reductions shall take effect after the expiration of such period, subject to any further extension of the
Maturity Date in accordance with this Section ‎9.2.



 


		9.3	Repayment of Credit Excess



 


In the event that there is a Credit Excess at any
time under the Facility, the Borrower shall repay to the Lenders on demand the amount of such Credit Excess.


 


		9.4	Voluntary Prepayments



 


Subject to Section ‎9.5, the Borrower shall
be entitled to prepay all or any portion of the outstanding Loans at any time, without penalty, provided that Section ‎8.4 shall be
complied with in connection with any such prepayment and any such prepayment of all or any portion of any Loan shall be in an amount of
no less than $2,000,000 and otherwise in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof. Amounts under the Facility which have been
prepaid as aforesaid may be reborrowed. Other than any payments required pursuant to Section ‎8.4, there are no premiums, penalties
or other additional payments associated with any voluntary prepayments under this Section ‎9.4.


 




    51 


     


    

		9.5	Prepayment Notice



 


The Borrower shall give written notice to the Administrative
Agent of each voluntary prepayment pursuant to Section ‎9.4. Such notice (a “Prepayment Notice”) shall be irrevocable
and in the form attached as Schedule R, shall be given in accordance with Section ‎3.9 and shall specify:


 


		(a)	the date on which the prepayment is to take place; and



 


		(b)	the type and principal amount of the Loan or the portion thereof which is to be prepaid.



 


		9.6	Mandatory Prepayment



 


The Borrower will, as soon as reasonably possible
upon acquiring actual knowledge thereof, notify the Administrative Agent of any Change of Control (a “Change of Control Notice”).
The Borrower shall prepay in full all amounts outstanding under the Facility, on or within 90 days of a Change of Control that has not
been approved by the Majority Lenders; provided however that if the Majority Lenders have failed to respond to a Change of Control Notice
prior to such ninetieth day, they will be deemed to have provided their approval to such Change of Control.


 


		9.7	Currency of Repayment



 


All payments and repayments of outstanding credit under this Agreement
shall be made in U.S. Dollars.


 


Article 10

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES


 


		10.1	Representations and Warranties



 


To induce the Lenders and the Administrative Agent
to enter into this Agreement and to induce the Finance Parties to extend credit under the Finance Documents, the Borrower hereby represents

a party or is otherwise bound or by which such Obligor or Specified Entity benefits or to which material property is subject and do not
require the consent or approval of any Official Body which Official Body has jurisdiction over such Obligor or Specified Entity or its
property or any other party, other than any necessary consent or approval of the counterparties of the Material Agreements, Mining Licenses
and other instruments, which consent or approval has been obtained and remains in full force and effect.

thereto) and except as incurred in the ordinary and usual course of the consolidated/combined business of the Borrower and the LGJV, neither
the Borrower nor the LGJV has any outstanding Indebtedness or any liability or obligations (whether



 




    53 


     


    

accrued, absolute,
contingent or otherwise) of a material nature customarily reflected or reserved against in a balance sheet (including the notes thereto)
prepared in accordance with GAAP.


 


		(iv)	The last day of the Borrower’s Fiscal Year is December 31 of each year and the last day of the LGJV’s
Fiscal Year is December 31 of each year.



 


		(e)	Litigation. Except as disclosed in ‎Schedule S, there
are no actions, suits, inquiries, claims or proceedings (whether or not purportedly on behalf of any Obligor or any Specified Entity)
pending or threatened in writing against or affecting any Obligor or Specified Entity before any Official Body which in any case or in
the aggregate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.



 


		(f)	Title to Assets. Each Obligor has good and marketable title to its material property, assets and

and Terrorism Legislation and/or Sanctions, the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing thereof. Upon the request
of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall promptly provide any information the Administrative Agent believes is reasonably necessary

Laws pertaining to “know your customer” standards.

of such Security.

by the Administrative Agent and in any event no later than 20 days from receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent of such requirement,

benefit of the Finance
Parties, and do all such acts and things as the Administrative Agent shall from time to time require over or in relation to all or any
of its assets, rights or interests which are in the opinion of the Administrative Agent material to secure all obligations and liabilities
(whether present or future) that the Obligors may have under any Finance Document or to perfect (in accordance with any relevant Security
Document) or protect the Finance Parties' security over all or any part of the assets, rights or interests of the Obligors or any Wholly-Owned

concurrently with such Obligor’s acquisition of such asset or property, in each case, on terms and conditions satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent,



 


each a “Permitted Disposition”.


 


For the avoidance of doubt, a Restricted
Forward Sale Transaction shall not constitute a commodity sale transaction in the ordinary course of business for the purposes of this
Section.


 




    66

any Specified Entity to,



 


		(i)	as it relates to any Obligor (other than the Borrower) or any Specified Entity, amend their articles of
incorporation to restrict the ability to transfer Shares of such Obligor;

		(f)	Distributions. The Borrower shall not, and shall not suffer or permit any other Obligor to, declare
or pay any Distributions (other than Distributions by such Obligor to the Borrower) except if:



 


		(i)	the aggregate amount of all such Distributions in any Fiscal Year is $25,000,000 or less; unless no amounts
are outstanding under the Facility prior to such Distribution and the Facility is not used to make such Distribution, in which case, the
restriction on the amount of such Distributions under this Section ‎11.2(f)(i) and the Leverage Ratio under Section 11.2(f)(ii)(B)
shall not apply;



 


		(ii)	immediately following such Distribution:

by way of rights of subrogation under any Permitted Investments to which it is a party, nor shall the Guarantor seek or be entitled to
seek any contribution or reimbursement from any Obligor or Specified Entity, in respect of any payment made under any Permitted Investments
or otherwise, until following all Secured Obligations are paid in full. Any amount paid to the Borrower on account of any such subrogation
rights prior to all Secured Obligations are paid in full shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and shall
immediately be paid and turned over to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Finance Parties in the exact form received by the
Borrower (duly endorsed in favor of the Administrative Agent, if required), to be credited and applied against the Secured Obligations,
whether matured or unmatured.



 


		(i)	Acquisitions. The Borrower shall not, and shall not suffer or permit any other Obligor or Specified

to such Obligor than could be obtained on an arm’s length basis from unrelated third parties. The Borrower shall not, and shall
not suffer or permit any Obligor to, enter into any transaction or series of transactions with Affiliates of any of the Obligors (other
than another Obligor and/or Specified Entity), which involve an outflow of money or other property from such Obligor to an Affiliate of
any of the Obligors, including payment of management fees, affiliation fees, administration fees, compensation, salaries, asset purchase
payments or any other type of fees or payments similar in nature, other than on terms and conditions substantially as favourable to such

(other than Permitted Indebtedness) with respect to metals not yet produced or to any royalty arrangement (other than the Royalty Agreements)
or to any offtake finance agreement (other than the Offtake Agreements entered into in the ordinary course and any provisional or true-up
payments thereunder). For avoidance of doubt, a prepayment of a metal held in inventory, or in process, and not yet poured and vaulted
shall not constitute Permitted Indebtedness.



 


		(m)	Change of Name or Jurisdiction of Formation. 



 


		(i)	No Obligor shall change its legal name or its jurisdiction of formation.

or any Specified Entity to, without the prior written consent of the Majority Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or

account the current economic and industry conditions of the applicable Obligor. The Borrower shall not, nor shall the Borrower suffer
or permit any other Obligor or any Specified Entity to, take, or omit to take, any action which may reasonably be expected to result in:

The Administrative Agent may, on the instructions
of the Majority Lenders and upon notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, perform any covenant of the Borrower under this Agreement
which the Borrower fails to perform or cause to be performed after demand for performance has been made and which the Administrative Agent
is capable of performing, including any covenants the performance of which requires the payment of money, provided that the Administrative
Agent shall not be obligated to perform any such covenant on behalf of the Borrower and no such performance by the Administrative Agent
shall require the Administrative Agent to further perform the Borrower’s covenants or shall operate as a derogation of the rights
and remedies of the Finance Parties under this Agreement or as a waiver of such covenant by the Administrative Agent. Any amounts paid
by the Administrative Agent as aforesaid shall be reimbursed by the Lenders in their Pro Rata Shares and shall be repaid by the Borrower
to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders on demand.

the same no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, it is capable of being cured, such failure is not rectified within
10 days of the Borrower becoming aware of the same;



 


		(q)	a Material Adverse Change occurs (other than as a result of the Mineral Reserves Overestimate);



 


		(r)	the occurrence of any event of default by an Obligor or any Specified Entity under any Royalty which has
not been remedied within any applicable grace period, if any, specified in the applicable Royalty;



 




    73 


     


    

		(s)	the occurrence of any unscheduled stoppage or disruption to substantially all mining and production occurring
at the Mine (other than as a result of the occurrence of a Force Majeure event), provided that no Event of Default shall be deemed to
have occurred under this Section 13.1(s) if: (A) such suspension is for sound operational reasons in accordance with good industry practice,
(B) such suspension would not reasonably be expected to last more than 30 days, (C) the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent
of such suspension and is otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and (D) the Mine and its operations are restored and
operating substantially as at the time prior to such suspension not later than 90 days after the commencement of such suspension;



 


		(t)	the occurrence of a Force Majeure event with respect to the Mine which constitutes for any period longer
than 180 consecutive days;



 


		(u)	the termination of any Material Agreement, other than in accordance with its terms, where such termination
would reasonably result in a Material Adverse Effect;



 


		(v)	any failure to maintain any Mining License other than any Mining License that is not necessary or desirable
for the development and/or operation of the Mine; or



 


		(w)	if the Mine is abandoned or, other than during a Force Majeure, placed on care and maintenance,



 


the Administrative Agent (with the approval and
instructions of the Majority Lenders) may, by notice to the Borrower, terminate the Facility (provided, however, that the Facility shall
automatically terminate, without notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of an event described in Section ‎13.1(c) or ‎13.1(d)
above) and the Administrative Agent (with the approval and instructions of the Majority Lenders) may, by the same or further notice to
the Borrower, declare all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement to be immediately due and payable whereupon
all such Indebtedness shall immediately become and be due and payable without further demand or other notice of any kind, all of which
are expressly waived by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may enforce the Security or cause the Security to be enforced (provided,
however, that all such Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders shall automatically become due and payable, and the Administrative
Agent shall immediately become entitled to enforce the Security or cause the Security to be enforced without notice of any kind, upon
the occurrence of an event described in Section ‎13.1(c) or ‎13.1(d) above).


 


		13.2	Remedies Cumulative



 


The Borrower expressly agrees that the rights and
remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement are cumulative and in addition to and not in substitution for
any rights or remedies provided by law. Any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right or remedy
for a default or breach of any term, covenant or condition in this Agreement does not waive, alter, affect or prejudice any other right
or remedy to which the Administrative Agent or such Lender may be lawfully entitled for the same default or breach. Any waiver by the
Administrative Agent with the approval of the Majority Lenders or all of the Lenders in accordance with Section ‎16.15 of the strict
observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant or condition of this Agreement is not a waiver of any subsequent default
and any indulgence by the Lenders with respect to any failure to strictly observe, perform or comply with any term, covenant or condition
of this Agreement is not a waiver of the entire term, covenant or condition or any subsequent default. No failure or delay by the Administrative
Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power
or right preclude its further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.


 


		13.3	Set-Off



 


In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted
under Applicable Law, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is authorized, at any
time that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing without notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being


 




    74 


     


    

expressly waived by the Borrower, to set-off, appropriate
and apply any and all deposits, matured or unmatured, general or special, and any other Indebtedness at any time held by or owing by the
Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, to or for the credit of or the account of the Borrower against and on account
of the obligations and liabilities of the Borrower which are due and payable to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may
be, under the Finance Documents.


 


Article 14

Guarantee and indemnity


 


		14.1	Guarantee and Indemnity



 


Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally:


 


		(a)	guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each Obligor and Gatos Canada of all that Obligor’s
and Gatos Canada’s obligations under the Finance Documents;



 


		(b)	undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever an Obligor or Gatos Canada does not pay any amount when
due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the non-defaulting Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it
was the principal obligor; and



 


		(c)	indemnifies each Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability suffered by that
Finance Party if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal. The amount of the cost, loss or liability
shall be equal to the amount which that Finance Party would otherwise have been entitled to recover.



 


		14.2	Continuing guarantee



 


This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate
balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in
part.


 


		14.3	Reinstatement



 


		(a)	If any payment by an Obligor or any discharge given by a Finance Party (whether in respect of the obligations
of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is avoided or reduced as a result of insolvency or any similar event:



 


		(b)	the liability of each Obligor shall continue as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had
not occurred; and



 


		(c)	each Finance Party shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that security or payment from each
Obligor, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred.



 


		14.4	Waiver of defences



 


		(a)	The obligations of each Guarantor under this Section ‎14.4 will
not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Section, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations
under this Section ‎14.4 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party)
including:



 


		(i)	any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;



 


		(ii)	the release of any other Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement
with any creditor of any member of the Adjusted Consolidated Borrower Group;



 




    75 


     


    

		(iii)	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, any Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance
of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;



 


		(iv)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members
or status of an Obligor or any other person;



 


		(v)	any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more
onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including without limitation any change in the purpose
of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document
or security;



 


		(vi)	any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document
or any other document or security; or



 


		(vii)	any insolvency or similar proceedings.



 


		14.5	Immediate recourse



 


Each Guarantor 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 Guarantor under this Section ‎14.5. This waiver applies irrespective of any
law or any provision of a Credit Document to the contrary.


 


		14.6	Appropriations



 


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



 


		(b)	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 no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and



 


		(c)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any
Guarantor's liability under this ‎Article 14.



 


		14.7	Deferral of Guarantors' rights



 


		(a)	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 Administrative Agent otherwise directs, no Guarantor will exercise any rights
which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents:



 


		(i)	to be indemnified by an Obligor;



 


		(ii)	to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;
and/or



 


		(iii)	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



 




    76 


     


    

or security taken
pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party.


 


		(b)	If a 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 Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent may direct for application in accordance with Section
‎3.7 (Remittance of Payments) of this Agreement.



 


		14.8	Release of Guarantors' right of contribution



 


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



 


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



 


		(c)	each other Guarantor 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 Guarantor.



 


		14.9	Additional security



 


This guarantee is in addition to and is not in
any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party.


 


Article 15

U.S. SPECIAL RESOLUTION REGIME


 


		15.1	Acknowledgement of U.S. Special Resolution Regime



 


		(a)	The Parties to this Agreement acknowledge and agree that in the event that a Covered Entity becomes subject
to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, and to the extent that this Agreement, and any other Finance Document would constitute
QFCs pursuant to the U.S. Special Resolution Regime (the “Covered QFC”), the transfer of the Covered QFC (and any interest
and obligation in or under, and any property securing, the Covered QFC), from such Covered Entity will be effective to the same extent
as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Covered QFC, and any interest and obligation in or
under, and any property securing, the Covered QFC, were governed by the laws of the United States or a State of the United States. In
the event a Covered Entity or a BHCA Affiliate of such Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution
Regime, Default Rights with respect to the Covered QFC that may be exercised against such Covered Entity are permitted to be exercised
to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under such U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Covered QFC were governed
by the laws of the United States or a State of the United States.



 


		(b)	For the avoidance of doubt, these provisions shall apply only to the extent mandated by the U.S. Special
Resolution Regime and shall not be construed to create any independent contractual restriction on the rights of the Parties other than
as required by the U.S. Special Resolution Regime.

Article 16

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT


 


		16.1	Appointment and Authorization of Administrative Agent



 


Each Finance Party hereby appoints
and authorizes, and hereby agrees that it will require any assignee of any of its interests in the Finance Documents (other than the holder
of a participation in its interests herein or therein) to appoint and authorize the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent
on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Finance Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by such Finance Party
by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors,
officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any of the Finance Parties for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them
under this Agreement or under the Finance Documents or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or wilful
misconduct and each Finance Party hereby acknowledges that the Administrative Agent is entering into the provisions of this Section ‎16.1
on its own behalf and as agent and trustee for its directors, officers, employees and agents.


 


		16.2	Interest Holders



 


The Administrative Agent may treat each Lender
set forth in ‎Schedule A or the Person designated in the last notice delivered to it under Section ‎18.5 as the holder of all
of the interests of such Lender under the Credit Documents.


 


		16.3	Consultation with Counsel



 


The Administrative Agent may consult with legal
counsel selected by it as counsel for the Administrative Agent and the other Finance Parties and shall not be liable for any action taken
or not taken or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice and opinion of such counsel.


 


		16.4	Documents



 


The Administrative Agent shall not be under any
duty to the Finance Parties to examine, enquire into or pass upon the validity, effectiveness or genuineness of the Credit Documents or
any instrument, document or communication furnished pursuant to or in connection with the Credit Documents and the Administrative Agent
shall, as regards the Finance Parties, be entitled to assume that the same are valid, effective and genuine, have been signed or sent
by the proper parties and are what they purport to be.


 


		16.5	Administrative Agent as Finance Party



 


With respect to those portions of the Facility
made available by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Credit Documents as any other Finance Party
and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits
from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Obligors and their Affiliates and persons doing business with
the Obligors and/or any of their Affiliates as if it were not the Administrative Agent and without any obligation to account to the Finance
Parties therefor.


 




    79 


     


    

		16.6	Responsibility of Administrative Agent



 


The duties and obligations of the Administrative
Agent to the Finance Parties under the Credit Documents are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement. The Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty to the Finance Parties to investigate whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred. The Administrative
Agent shall, as regards the Finance Parties, be entitled to assume that no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
unless the Administrative Agent has actual knowledge or has been notified by the Borrower of such fact or has been notified by a Finance
Party that such Finance Party considers that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such notification to specify
in detail the nature thereof.


 


		16.7	Action by Administrative Agent



 


The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to use
its discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any rights which may be vested in it on behalf of the Finance
Parties by and under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not exercise any rights under Section ‎13.1,
the Security Documents or expressed to be on behalf of or with the approval of the Majority Lenders without the request, consent or instructions
of the Majority Lenders. Furthermore, any rights of the Administrative Agent expressed to be on behalf of or with the approval of the
Majority Lenders shall be exercised by the Administrative Agent upon the request or instructions of the Majority Lenders. The Administrative
Agent shall incur no liability to the Finance Parties under or in respect of any of the Credit Documents with respect to anything which
it may do or refrain from doing in the reasonable exercise of its judgment or which may seem to it to be necessary or desirable in the
circumstances, except for its gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in
acting or refraining from acting under any of the Credit Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders and any
action taken or failure to act pursuant to such instructions shall be binding on all Finance Parties. In respect of any notice by or action
taken by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Borrower shall at no time be obliged to enquire as to the right or authority
of the Administrative Agent to so notify or act.


 


		16.8	Notice of Events of Default

acquire actual knowledge or shall have been notified of any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
the Lenders and shall take such action and assert such rights under Section ‎13.1 of this Agreement and under the other Credit Documents
as the Majority Lenders shall request in writing and the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any liability by reason of its acting
pursuant to any such request. If the Majority Lenders shall fail for five Banking Days after receipt of the notice of any Default or Event
of Default to request the Administrative Agent to take such action or to assert such rights under any of the Credit Documents in respect
of such Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, and subject to subsequent specific instructions
from the Majority Lenders, take such action or assert such rights (other than rights under Section ‎13.1 of this Agreement or under
the other Credit Documents and other than giving an express waiver of any Default or any Event of Default) as it deems in its discretion
to be advisable for the protection of the Finance Parties except that, if the Majority Lenders have instructed the Administrative Agent
not to take such action or assert such rights, in no event shall the Administrative Agent act contrary to such instructions unless required
by law to do so.


 


		16.9	Holding of Security



 


The Administrative Agent declares
that it shall hold the Liens entrusted to it, the properties and assets charged thereby and the rights granted to it under each Finance
Document, for its own benefit and as Administrative Agent for the rateable benefit of each Lender and other Finance Party. The rights
vested in the Administrative Agent by any Finance Document shall be performed by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions
of this Section ‎16.9.


 




    80 


     


    

		16.10	Responsibility Disclaimed



 


		(a)	The Administrative Agent shall be under no liability or responsibility whatsoever as agent under this
Agreement:



 


		(i)	to the Borrower or any other Person as a consequence of any failure or delay in the performance by, or
any breach by, any Finance Party or Finance Parties of any of its or their obligations under any of the Credit Documents;



 


		(ii)	to any Finance Party or Finance Parties as a consequence of any failure or delay in performance by, or
any breach by, any Obligor of any of their respective obligations under any of the Credit Documents; or



 


		(iii)	to any Finance Party or Finance Parties for any statements, representations or warranties in any of the
Credit Documents or in any other documents contemplated hereby or thereby or in any other information provided pursuant to any of the
Credit Documents or any other documents contemplated hereby or thereby or for the validity, effectiveness, enforceability or sufficiency
of any of the Credit Documents or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby.



 


		(b)	Except as specifically provided in the Finance Documents, the Bookrunner and Mandated Lead Arranger has
no obligations of any kind to any other Finance Party under or in connection with any Finance Document.



 


		16.11	Indemnification



 


The Finance Parties agree to indemnify the Administrative
Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower) pro rata in accordance with their relative Exposures from and against any
and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any nature
whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way relating to or arising out of
any of the Credit Documents or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative
Agent under any of the Credit Documents or any document contemplated hereby or thereby, except that no Finance Party shall be liable to
the Administrative Agent for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Administrative Agent.


 


		16.12	Credit Decision



 


Each Lender represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent that:


 


		(a)	in making its decision to enter into this Agreement and to make its Pro Rata Share of the Facility available
to the Borrower, it is independently taking whatever steps it considers necessary to evaluate the financial condition and affairs of the
Obligors and that it has made an independent credit judgment without reliance upon any information furnished by the Administrative Agent;
and



 


		(b)	so long as any portion of the Facility is being utilized by the Borrower, it will continue to make its
own independent evaluation of the financial condition and affairs of the Obligors.



 


		16.13	Successor Administrative Agent



 


Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a
successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which
consent shall not be required for so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), resign at any time by giving 30 days
written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Finance Parties. Upon any such resignation, the Majority


 




    81 


     


    

Lenders, with the prior written consent of the
Borrower (which consent shall not be required (x) if the successor Administrative Agent is an Affiliate or Subsidiary of the Administrative
Agent or of a Lender on the date hereof or (y) for so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), shall have the right
to appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall be one of the Lenders unless none of the Lenders wishes to accept such appointment.
If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment by the time of such resignation,
then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Finance Parties and with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which
consent shall not be required for so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), appoint a successor Administrative Agent
which shall be a Lender organized under the laws of Canada or the United States which has combined capital and reserves in excess of $250,000,000
and has an office in Toronto or New York. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent under this Agreement by a successor
Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges,
duties and obligations of the retiring Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent but not in its capacity as a Finance
Party) and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement (in its capacity
as Administrative Agent but not in its capacity as a Finance Party). After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation under
this Agreement as the Administrative Agent, provisions of this ‎Article 16 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect
of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.


 


		16.14	Delegation by Administrative Agent



 


With the prior approval of the Majority Lenders,
the Administrative Agent shall have the right to delegate any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement as Administrative Agent
to any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent so long as the Administrative Agent shall not thereby be relieved of such duties or obligations.


 


		16.15	Waivers and Amendments



 


		(a)	Subject to Section ‎16.15(b), any term, covenant or condition
of any of the Credit Documents may only be amended with the prior consent of the Borrower and the Majority Lenders or compliance therewith
may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) by the Majority Lenders and in
any such event the failure to observe, perform or discharge any such covenant, condition or obligation, so amended or waived (whether
such amendment is executed or such consent or waiver is given before or after such failure), shall not be construed as a breach of such
covenant, condition or obligation or as a Default or Event of Default.



 


		(b)	Notwithstanding Section ‎16.15(a), without the prior written
consent of each Lender, no such amendment or waiver shall directly:



 


		(i)	increase the amount of either Credit Limit or the amount of the Individual Commitment of any Lender;



 


		(ii)	extend the Maturity Date;



 


		(iii)	alter the amortization schedule set forth in Section ‎9.1;

Agent in respect thereof;



 


		(v)	change the percentage of the Lenders’ requirement to constitute the Majority Lenders;



 




    82 


     


    

		(vi)	reduce the stated amount or postpone the date for payment of any fees or other amount to be paid pursuant
to ‎Article 7 or ‎Article 8 of this Agreement;



 


		(vii)	permit any subordination of any of the Secured Obligations;



 


		(viii)	except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section ‎16.20, release
or discharge a Guarantee or any Security Document, in whole or in part;

		(x)	amend the definitions of “Secured Risk Management Agreements”, “Enforcement
Date”, “Exposure”, “Credit Document”, “Finance Documents”, “Finance
Parties”, “Majority Lenders”, “Qualified Affiliate”, “Qualified Risk Management
Lender”, “Risk Management Agreements” or “Secured Obligations” or any definition forming
part thereof.



 


		(c)	Notwithstanding Section ‎16.15(a), without the prior written
consent of each Qualified Risk Management Lender, no such amendment or waiver shall directly:



 


		(i)	permit any subordination of any of the Secured Obligations;



 


		(ii)	except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Section ‎16.20, release
or discharge any Guarantee or the Security Documents, in whole or in part;



 


		(iii)	amend or alter the terms of Section ‎16.15; or



 


		(iv)	amend the definitions of “Qualified Risk Management Agreements”, “Enforcement
Date”, “Exposure”, “Finance Documents”, “Finance Parties”, “Qualified
Affiliate”, “Qualified Risk Management Lender”, “Risk Management Agreements” or “Secured
Obligations”.



 


		(d)	No amendment to or waiver of any provision hereof to the extent it affects the rights or obligations of
the Administrative Agent shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.



 


		(e)	Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove
any amendment, waiver or consent under this Agreement, except that, without the consent of such Defaulting Lender, (i) the Individual
Commitment of such Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended and (ii) the time for the payment of interest or fees on Loans shall
not be extended, the principal thereof shall not be forgiven, the stated rate of interest or fees thereon shall not be reduced and the
requirement of pro rata application of all amounts received by the Administrative Agent in respect thereof shall not be amended.



 


		16.16	Determination by Administrative Agent Conclusive and Binding



 


Any determination to be made by the Administrative
Agent on behalf of or with the approval of the Lenders or the Majority Lenders under this Agreement shall be made by the Administrative
Agent in good faith and, if so made, shall be binding on all parties, absent manifest error. The Obligors are entitled to assume that
any action taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with any Credit Document has been appropriately authorized by the
Lenders or the Majority Lenders, as the case may be, pursuant to the terms hereof.


 




    83 


     


    

		16.17	Adjustments among Lenders after Acceleration



 


		(a)	The Lenders agree that, at any time after all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to
this Agreement has become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section ‎13.1
or after the cancellation or termination of the Facility, they will at any time or from time to time upon the request of any Lender through
the Administrative Agent purchase portions of the availments made available by the other Lenders which remain outstanding, and make any
other adjustments which may be necessary or appropriate, in order that the amounts of the availments made available by the respective
Lenders which remain outstanding, as adjusted pursuant to this Section ‎16.17, will be in the
same proportions as their respective Pro Rata Shares thereof immediately prior to such acceleration, cancellation or termination.



 


		(b)	The Lenders agree that, at any time after all Indebtedness of the Borrower to the Lenders pursuant to
this Agreement has become immediately due and payable pursuant to Section ‎13.1 or after the
cancellation or termination of the Facility, the amount of any repayment made by the Borrower under this Agreement, and the amount of
any proceeds of the exercise of any rights or remedies of the Lenders under the Credit Documents, which are to be applied against amounts
owing under this Agreement as principal, will be so applied in a manner such that to the extent possible, the availments made available
by the Lenders which remain outstanding, after giving effect to such application, will be in the same proportions as their respective
Pro Rata Shares thereof immediately prior to such acceleration, cancellation or termination.



 


		(c)	For greater certainty, the Lenders acknowledge and agree that without limiting the generality of the provisions
of Section ‎16.17(a) and ‎16.17(b), such provisions
will have application if and whenever any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any
right of set-off, compensation, or otherwise), other than on account of any monies owing or payable by the Borrower to it under the Credit
Documents in excess of its pro rata share of payments on account of monies owing by the Borrower to all the Finance Parties thereunder.



 


		(d)	The Borrower agrees to be bound by and to do all things necessary or appropriate to give effect to any
and all purchases and other adjustments made by and between the Lenders pursuant to this Section ‎16.17.



 


		16.18	Redistribution of Payment



 


If a Lender shall receive payment of a portion
of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due to it under this Agreement which is greater than the proportion received by any
other Lender in respect of the aggregate amount of principal and interest due in respect of the Facility (having regard to the respective
Individual Commitments of the Lenders), the Lender receiving such proportionately greater payment shall purchase a participation (which
shall be deemed to have been done simultaneously with receipt of such payment) in that portion of the aggregate outstanding credit of
the other Lender or Lenders so that the respective receipts shall be pro rata to their respective participation in the credits;
provided, however, that if all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing Lender shall be recovered from
the Borrower, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price paid for such participation shall be returned by such selling Lender
or Lenders to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.


 


		16.19	Distribution of Notices



 


Except as otherwise expressly provided in this
Agreement, promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent of any notice or other document which is delivered to the Administrative
Agent under this Agreement on behalf of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy of such notice or other document to
each of the Lenders; provided, however, that a copy of any such notice delivered at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default
shall be delivered by the Administrative Agent to each of the Finance Parties.


 




    84 


     


    

		16.20	Discharge of Security



 


To the extent a sale, transfer or other disposition
of the Secured Assets is permitted pursuant to the provisions hereof, the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, at the cost
and expense of the Borrower, to execute such discharges and other instruments which are necessary for the purposes of:


 


		(a)	releasing and discharging the Security therein or for the purposes of recording the provisions or effect
thereof in any office where the Security Documents may be registered or recorded;



 


		(b)	releasing any Guarantor from its obligations under its guarantee of the Secured Obligations if such Guarantor
ceases to be a Material Subsidiary of the Borrower (in the case of a permitted disposition of Secured Assets consisting of the Shares
of a Guarantor); or



 


		(c)	for the purpose of more fully and effectively carrying out the provisions of this Section ‎16.20.



 


		16.21	Determination of Exposures



 


Concurrent with any request for any approval or
instructions of the Majority Lenders and prior to any distribution of Cash Proceeds of Realization to the Finance Parties, the Administrative
Agent shall request each Finance Party to provide to the Administrative Agent a written calculation of such Finance Party’s Exposure,
each such calculation to be certified true and correct by the Finance Party providing same. Each Finance Party shall so provide such calculation
within two Banking Days following the request of the Administrative Agent. Any such calculation provided by a particular Finance Party
shall, absent manifest error, constitute prima facie evidence of such Finance Party’s Exposure at such time. With respect
to each determination of the Exposure of the Finance Parties, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Finance Parties. For
the purposes of determining a particular Finance Party’s Exposure:


 


		(a)	the Exposure of a Finance Party under any Credit Document shall be the aggregate amount (expressed in
United States dollars) owing to such Finance Party thereunder on such date;



 


		(b)	the Exposure of a Qualified Risk Management Lender in respect of Secured Risk Management Agreements shall
be measured as the net exposure of such Qualified Risk Management Lender under all Secured Risk Management Agreements with the Obligors
or Gatos Canada to which such Qualified Risk Management Lender is a party, being the aggregate exposure of such Qualified Risk Management
Lender thereunder less the aggregate exposure of the relevant Obligor or Gatos Canada thereunder; the exposure of a Qualified Risk Management
Lender party to a Secured Risk Management Agreement shall be, in the case of a Secured Risk Management Agreement which has not been terminated
as of such date, the total amount which would be owing to such party by the other party under such Secured Risk Management Agreement in
the event of the early termination as of such date of such Secured Risk Management Agreement as a result of the occurrence of a default,
event of default or termination event (however specified or designated) with respect to such party thereunder or, in the case of a Secured
Risk Management Agreement which has been terminated as of such date, the total amount which is owing to such party by the other party
under such Secured Risk Management Agreement, in each case expressed in United States dollars; and



 


		(c)	the Exposure of a Lender in respect of Cash Management Agreements shall be the aggregate amount (expressed
in United States dollars) which would be owing by the Obligors or Gatos Canada thereunder on such date if such agreements were terminated
on such date.



 


		16.22	Qualified Risk Management Lenders



 


If a Qualified Risk Management Lender ceases to
be a Lender under this Agreement (for purposes of this Section ‎16.22, a “Former Lender”) or a Qualified Affiliate
of a Lender under this Agreement (for purposes of this Section ‎16.22, a “Former Qualified Affiliate”), all Secured
Obligations owing to such Former Lender


 




    85 


     


    

or Former Qualified Affiliate under Secured Risk
Management Agreements entered into while such Former Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate was a Lender or a Qualified Affiliate (for purposes
of this Section ‎16.22, “Hedge Liabilities”) shall remain guaranteed by the Guarantors hereunder and secured by
the Security, (in each case equally and rateably) subject to the provisions of this Section ‎16.22. The Security shall only secure
such Hedge Liabilities entered into with a Former Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate and shall not secure any debts, obligations or
liabilities of such Former Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate arising in respect of derivative transactions entered into after such
Former Lender ceased to be a Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate ceased to be a Qualified Affiliate. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement (including, for avoidance of doubt, Section ‎16.23) the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder or Security,
prior to the Facility Termination Date, no Former Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate shall have any right to cause or require the enforcement
of the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder or Security or any right to vote in any decisions relating to the guarantee provided
by the Guarantors hereunder or Security (but shall have the right to be informed), including any decisions relating to the enforcement
or manner of enforcement of the Security or decisions relating to any amendment subject to Section ‎16.15(c), waiver under, release
of or other dealing with all or any part of the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder or Security; for the avoidance of doubt
prior to the Facility Termination Date, the sole right of a Former Lender or a Former Qualified Affiliate with respect to the guarantee
provided by the Guarantors hereunder and the Security while any of its Secured Obligations remain outstanding under this Agreement is
to share, on a pari passu basis, in any proceeds of realization and enforcement of the Security. Furthermore, prior to the Facility Termination
Date, any Former Lender or Former Qualified Affiliate will only be a Finance Party solely for the purpose of sharing rateably in the guarantee
provided by the Guarantors hereunder and Security and any proceeds of realization related thereto and will have no other rights or benefits
of a Finance Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Document.


 


		16.23	Decision to Enforce Security



 


		(a)	Upon the Security becoming enforceable in accordance with its terms, the Administrative Agent shall promptly
so notify each of the Finance Parties.



 


		(b)	The Administrative Agent or any Qualified Risk Management Lender may thereafter provide the Administrative
Agent with a written request to enforce the Security.



 


		(c)	Forthwith after the receipt of such a request, the Administrative Agent shall seek the instructions of
the Majority Lenders as to whether the Security should be enforced and the manner in which such Security should be enforced. In seeking
such instructions, the Administrative Agent shall submit a specific proposal to the Finance Parties.



 


		(d)	From time to time, the Administrative Agent or any Qualified Risk Management Lender may submit a proposal
to the Administrative Agent as to the manner in which the Security should be enforced and the Administrative Agent shall submit any such
proposal to the Finance Parties for approval of the Majority Lenders.



 


		(e)	The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Finance Parties of all instructions and approvals of
the Majority Lenders. If the Majority Lenders instruct the Administrative Agent to enforce the Security, each of the Finance Parties agree
to accelerate the Secured Obligations owed to it to the extent permitted under the relevant Credit Document and in accordance with the
relevant Credit Document.



 


		16.24	Enforcement



 


The Administrative Agent reserves the sole right
to enforce, instruct or otherwise deal with the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder and the Security and to deal with the Obligors
in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall so enforce, or otherwise deal with the guarantee provided
by the Guarantors hereunder and the Security only as the Majority Lenders shall instruct.


 




    86 


     


    

		16.25	Application of Cash Proceeds of Realization



 


		(a)	All Proceeds of Realization not in the form of cash shall be forthwith delivered to the Administrative
Agent and disposed of, or realized upon, by the Administrative Agent in such manner as the Majority Lenders may approve so as to produce
Cash Proceeds of Realization.



 


		(b)	Subject to the claims, if any, of secured creditors of the Obligors whose security ranks in priority to
the Security, all Cash Proceeds of Realization shall be applied and distributed, and the claims of the Finance Parties shall be deemed
to have the relative priorities which would result in the Cash Proceeds of Realization being applied and distributed, as follows:



 


		(i)	firstly, to the payment of all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent (including,
without limitation, all legal fees and disbursements) in the exercise of all or any of the powers granted to it under this Agreement or
under the Security Documents and the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder and in payment of all of the remuneration of any custodian,
receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding and all costs and expenses
properly incurred by such official (including, without limitation, all legal fees and disbursements) in the exercise of all or any powers
granted to it under this Agreement, the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder, and the Security Documents;



 


		(ii)	secondly, in payment of all amounts of money borrowed or advanced by the Administrative Agent or such
custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding pursuant to
the Security Documents;



 


		(iii)	thirdly, to the payment of the Secured Obligations of the Obligors (including holding as cash collateral
to be applied against Secured Obligations which have not then matured) to the Finance Parties pro rata in accordance with their
relative Exposures, which Cash Proceeds of Realization shall be applied by each Finance Party to its Exposure in such manner as it sees
fit; and



 


		(iv)	the balance, if any, to the Borrower or otherwise in accordance with Applicable Law.



 


		16.26	Survival



 


The provisions of ‎Article 8, ‎Article 10,
‎Article 11, ‎Article 16 and Section ‎18.13 and all other provisions of this Agreement which are necessary to give
effect to each of the provisions of such Articles shall survive the permanent repayment in full of the Facility and the termination of
all of the Individual Commitments of the Lender until the Secured Obligations Termination Date.


 


Article 17

RESCINDABLE PAYMENTS


 


		17.1	Rescindable Payments



 


		(a)	Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which
any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or any other Finance Parties that the Borrower will not
make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance with this Agreement
and may (but shall not be required to) in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the applicable Lenders or other Finance Parties,
as the case may be, the amount due.



 


		(b)	With respect to any payment that the Administrative Agent makes to any Lender or other Finance Party as
to which the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that any of the following applies (such payment referred
to as the “Rescindable Amount”):



 




    87 


     


    

		(i)	the Borrower has not in fact made the corresponding payment to the Administrative Agent;



 


		(ii)	the Administrative Agent has made a payment in excess of the amount(s) received by it from the Borrower
either individually or in the aggregate (whether or not then owed); or



 


		(iii)	the Administrative Agent has for any reason otherwise erroneously made such payment; then each of the
Finance Parties severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the Rescindable Amount so distributed to such
Finance Party, in immediately available funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed
to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate
determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.



 


		17.2	Exposure under Permitted Risk Management Agreements and Cash Management Agreements



 


		(a)	By virtue of a Lender’s and each other Finance Party’s execution of this Agreement or an assignment
pursuant to Section ‎18.5, as the case may be, any Affiliate or Transferee of such Lender or
other Finance Party with whom the Borrower, Gatos Canada, or any Guarantor has entered into an agreement creating any Exposure under any
Permitted Risk Management Agreement or Cash Management Agreement shall be deemed a Finance Party under this Agreement for purposes of
any reference in a Finance Document to the parties for whom the Administrative Agent is acting, it being understood and agreed that the
rights and benefits of such Affiliate or Transferee under the Finance Documents consist exclusively of such Affiliate’s or Transferee’s
right to share in payments and collections out of the Secured Assets and the guarantee provided by the Guarantors hereunder as more fully
set forth in Section ‎16.25.



 


		(b)	Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) each such Affiliate or Transferee shall, for the
avoidance of doubt, be deemed to have agreed to the provisions of Section ‎17.3 and (ii) no such
Affiliate or Transferee shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action under this Agreement
or under any other Finance Document or otherwise in respect of the Secured Assets (including the release or impairment of any Secured
Assets). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify
the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to Exposure under any Permitted Risk Management Agreement
or Cash Management Agreement unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Exposure, together with such supporting
documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Finance Party.



 


		17.3	Recovery of Erroneous Payments



 


		(a)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines
(in its sole and absolute discretion) that it has made a payment under this Agreement in error to any Lender or other Finance Party, whether
or not in respect of any Secured Obligation due and owing by the Borrower at such time, where such payment is a Rescindable Amount, then
in any such event, each such Person receiving a Rescindable Amount severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand the Rescindable Amount received by such Person in immediately available funds in the currency so received, with interest thereon,
for each day from and including the date such Rescindable Amount is received by it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative
Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking
industry rules on interbank compensation.



 


		(b)	Each Lender and each other Finance Party irrevocably waives any and all defenses, including any “discharge
for value” (under which a creditor might otherwise claim a right to retain funds mistakenly



 




    88 


     


    

paid by a third
party in respect of a debt owed by another), “good consideration”, “change of position” or similar defenses (whether
at law or in equity) to its obligation to return any Rescindable Amount.


 


		(c)	The Administrative Agent shall inform each Lender or other Finance Party that it has received a Rescindable
Amount promptly upon determining that any payment made to such Person comprised, in whole or in part, a Rescindable Amount.



 


		(d)	Each Person’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section ‎17.3
shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement
of, a Lender or other Finance Party, the termination of the Total Commitment Amount and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of
all Secured Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Finance Document.



 


Article 18

MISCELLANEOUS


 


		18.1	Notices



 


All notices and other communications provided for
in this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be personally delivered to an officer or other responsible employee of the addressee or
sent by telefacsimile, charges prepaid, at or to the applicable addresses, telefacsimile numbers or email address, as the case may be,
set out opposite the parties’ name on the signature page hereof or at or to such other address or addresses, telefacsimile number
or numbers or email address as any party to this Agreement may from time to time designate to the other parties in such manner. Any communication
which is personally delivered as aforesaid shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively given on the date of such delivery if

Day and such transmission was received before 4:00 p.m. (New York time); otherwise, it shall be deemed to have been validly and effectively
given on the Banking Day next following such date of transmission.


 


		18.2	Severability



 


Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited
or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions
of this Agreement.


 


		18.3	Counterparts



 


This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
and by means of facsimile or other electronic form, including PDF, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken
together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.


 


		18.4	Successors and Assigns



 


This Agreement shall enure to the benefit of and
shall be binding upon the parties to this Agreement and their respective successors and permitted assigns.


 


		18.5	Assignment



 


		(a)	Neither the Credit Documents nor the benefit thereof may be assigned by the Borrower.



 


		(b)	A Lender may at any time sell to one or more other persons (“Participants”) participating
interests in any credit outstanding under this Agreement, any commitment of such Lender under this



 




    89 


     


    

Agreement or any
other interest of the Lender under this Agreement. In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant,
such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the Borrower shall remain unchanged and such Lender shall remain solely entitled
to enforce its rights under this Agreement, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof and the Borrower shall
continue to be obligated to such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights under this Agreement. The Borrower agrees that if
amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared to be or shall have become due and payable upon
the occurrence of an Event of Default, or any Default which might mature into an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to
have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount
of its participating interest were owing directly to it as the relevant Lender under this Agreement. The Borrower also agrees that each
Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of ‎Article 8 with respect to its participation
under this Agreement and for the purposes of ‎Article 8 such Participant shall be deemed
to be a Lender to the extent of such participation, provided, that such Participant shall have complied with obligations of a Lender provided
in ‎Article 8 and that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant
to such Article than the relevant Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred
by the relevant Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment
results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.


 


		(c)	With the prior written consent of (a) the Borrower (which consent shall not be required (i) if such sale
is to one or more other Lenders or to an Affiliate of any Lender or (ii) in circumstances where a Default or Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing) and (b) the Administrative Agent, which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld, as concerns any
sale of any rights under or in connection with the Facility, a Lender may at any time sell all or any part of its rights and obligations
under the Credit Documents to one or more Persons (“Purchasing Lenders”). No consent shall be required in the case
of the sale by a Lender to its Affiliate. Upon such sale, the Lender shall, to the extent of such sale, be released from its obligations
under the Credit Documents and each of the Purchasing Lenders shall become a party to the Credit Documents to the extent of the interest
so purchased provided, however, no Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall be released from any obligation in respect of any damages
arising in connection with it being or becoming a Defaulting Lender. Any such assignment shall be for Individual Commitments of an amount
equal to or no less than $10,000,000 and the entirety of the assigning Lender’s Individual Commitments under the Facility and, following
such assignment, the assigning Lender shall either retain an Individual Commitment of $10,000,000 under the Facility or have assigned
the entirety of its Individual Commitments. Any such assignment by a Lender shall not be effective unless and until such Lender has paid
to the Administrative Agent an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 for each Purchasing Lender, unless and until the Purchasing Lender
has executed an instrument substantially in the form of ‎Schedule E whereby the Purchasing Lender
has agreed to be bound by the terms of the Credit Documents as a Lender and has agreed to a specific Individual Commitment and a specific
address, telefacsimile number and email for the purpose of notices as provided in Section ‎18.1
and unless and until the requisite consents to such assignment have been obtained, unless and until a copy of a fully executed copy of
such instrument has been delivered to each of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower. Upon any such assignment becoming effective, ‎Schedule
A shall be deemed to be amended to include the Purchasing Lender as a Lender with the specific Individual Commitment, address and telefacsimile
number and email as aforesaid and the Individual Commitment of the Lender making such assignment shall be deemed to be reduced by the
amount of the Individual Commitment of the Purchasing Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no consent of any Person shall be required,
nor shall any assignment fee be payable, where a Lender assigns all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to
one or more other Lenders or pledges or assigns its rights under this Agreement as security to a Federal Reserve Bank of the United States,
the Bank of Canada or the European Central Bank.



 


		(d)	The Borrower authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to disclose to any Participant or Purchasing
Lender (each, a “Transferee”) and any prospective Transferee or any professional



 




    90 


     


    

advisor of any Transferee
or prospective Transferee and authorizes each of the Lenders to disclose to any other Lender any and all financial information in their
possession concerning the Obligors which has been delivered to them by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement or which
has been delivered to them by or on behalf of the Borrower in connection with their credit evaluation of the Obligors prior to becoming
a party to this Agreement, so long as any such Transferee agrees not to disclose any confidential, non-public information to any Person
other than its non-brokerage affiliates, employees, accountants or legal counsel, unless required by law and authorizes each of the Lenders
to disclose to any other Lender and to any Person where disclosure is required by law, regulation, legal process or regulatory authority
(for certainty under any circumstance and not solely in connection with assignment of rights).


 


		18.6	Replacement of a Lender



 


		(a)	Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, if:



 


		(i)	any Lender, but not all of the Lenders, who has an Individual Commitment seeks additional compensation
pursuant to Section ‎8.2 (for the purposes of this Section, the “Affected Lender”);



 


		(ii)	any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender,



 


then, in the case of
each such Affected Lender or Defaulting Lender (each, a “Terminated Lender”) the Borrower may, by giving written notice
to the Administrative Agent and such Terminated Lender of its election to do so, elect to cause such Terminated Lender (and such Terminated
Lender hereby irrevocably agrees) to assign its outstanding Loans and Individual Commitments, if any, in full to one or more Persons (each
a “Replacement Lender”) in accordance with the provisions of this Section ‎18.6
and the consent rights of the Administrative Agent in Section ‎18.5(c) provided, however, that
incumbent Lenders shall have the right to assume any such Loans and Individual Commitments in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares in
priority to any Person which is not a Lender at the time that the Borrower provided the afore-mentioned notice to the Administrative Agent.
The Replacement Lender or Replacement Lenders shall, in the aggregate, advance all (but not part) of the Terminated Lender’s Pro
Rata Share of the affected credit and, in the aggregate, assume all (but not part) of the Terminated Lender’s Individual Commitments
and obligations under the Facility and acquire all (but not part) of the rights of the Terminated Lender and assume all (but not part)
of the obligations of the Terminated Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Facility (but in
no event shall any other Lender or the Administrative Agent be obliged to do so).


 


		(b)	With respect to such advance, acquisition and assumption, the Pro Rata Share of such credit of each Replacement
Lender and the Individual Commitments and the obligations of such Replacement Lender under the Facility and the rights and obligations
of such Replacement Lender under each of the other Credit Documents to the extent they relate to the Facility shall be increased by its
respective pro rata share (based on the relative Individual Commitments of the Replacement Lenders) of the Terminated Lender’s
Pro Rata Share of such credit and Individual Commitments and obligations and rights and obligations under each of the other Credit Documents
to the extent they relate to the Facility on a date mutually acceptable to the Replacement Lenders and the Borrower. On such date, each
of the Replacement Lenders shall execute an instrument substantially in the form of ‎Schedule
E and shall extend to the Borrower the Terminated Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such credit and shall prepay to the Terminated Lender
the Loans of the Terminated Lender then outstanding, together with all interest accrued thereon and all other amounts owing to the Terminated
Lender under this Agreement, and, upon such advance and prepayment by the Replacement Lenders, the Terminated Lender shall cease to be
a “Lender” for purposes of this Agreement and shall no longer have any obligations under this Agreement. In addition
to the foregoing, in respect of any Replacement Lender that is not, on the relevant date, an existing Lender, such Replacement Lender
shall execute and deliver a joinder agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, which shall
be



 




    91 


     


    

executed and delivered
by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and each such Replacement Lender shall be bound by the terms of the Credit Documents as
a Lender. Upon the assumption of the Terminated Lender’s Individual Commitments as aforesaid by a Replacement Lender, ‎Schedule
A shall be deemed to be amended to reflect the amended or new Individual Commitments of such Replacement Lenders pursuant to the respective
amounts of such assumptions.


 


		18.7	Entire Agreement



 


This Agreement and the agreements referred to in
this Agreement and delivered pursuant to this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Fee Letter) constitute the entire agreement
between the parties to this Agreement and supersede any prior agreements, undertakings, declarations, representations and understandings,
both written and verbal, in respect of the subject matter hereof.


 


		18.8	Waiver of Jury Trial



 


Each of the Borrower and the
Finance Parties to this Agreement hereby expressly, knowingly, voluntarily and intentionally waives the right any of them may have to

Document, or any course of conduct, course of dealing, statements (whether verbal or written) or actions of any Finance Party relating
to this Agreement or any Finance Document. This provision is a material inducement for the Finance Parties to enter into this Agreement.


 


		18.9	USA Patriot Act



 


To the extent that it is subject
to the requirements of the Patriot Act or any other anti-money laundering rules and regulations applicable to a Finance Party, each Finance
Party hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act or any other anti-money laundering rules and
regulations applicable to such Finance Party and the customer due diligence requirements for financial institutions of the Financial Crimes
Enforcement Network (as published at 81 FR 29397, 31 CFR 1010, 1020, 1023, 1024, and 1026), it is required to obtain, verify and record
information that identifies the Borrower and its direct and indirect beneficial owners, which information includes the name and address
of such Persons and other information that will allow such Finance Party, as the case may be, to identify the Borrower and its direct
and indirect beneficial owners in accordance with the USA Patriot Act or any other anti-money laundering rules and regulations applicable
to such Finance Parties and the customer due diligence requirements for financial institutions of the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network.
The Borrower agrees that it will promptly provide each Finance Party with such information as it may request in order for such Finance
Party, respectively, to satisfy the requirements of the USA Patriot Act or any other anti-money laundering rules and regulations applicable
to such Finance Party.


 


		18.10	No Third-Party Beneficiaries



 


Except as expressly set forth
in Section 18.17, the agreement of the Lenders to make the Loans to the Borrower, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
is solely for the benefit of the Borrower and the Finance Parties, and no other Person (including any contractor, subcontractor, supplier,
workman, carrier, warehouseman or materialman furnishing labor, supplies, goods or services to or for the benefit of the Mine) shall have
any rights under this Agreement or under any other Finance Document or with respect to any extension of credit contemplated by this Agreement.


 


		18.11	Waiver of Immunity



 


		(a)	The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the activities contemplated by the provisions of the Finance
Documents are commercial in nature rather than governmental or public and therefore acknowledges and agrees that it is not entitled to
any right of immunity on the grounds of sovereignty or otherwise with respect to such activities or in any legal action or proceeding
arising out of or relating to the Finance Documents. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the



 




    92 


     


    

Borrower, in respect
of itself, its process agents and its properties and revenues, expressly and irrevocably waives any such right of immunity which may now
or hereafter exist (including any immunity from the jurisdiction of any court or from any suit, execution, attachment (whether provisional
or final, in aid of execution, prior to judgment or otherwise) or other legal process (including in any jurisdiction where immunity (whether
or not claimed) may be attributed to it or its assets)) or claim thereto which may now or hereafter exist and irrevocably agrees not to
assert any such right or claim of immunity in any such action or proceeding to the fullest extent permitted now or in the future by the
laws of any such jurisdiction.


 


		(b)	The Borrower agrees that the waivers set forth in paragraph (a) above shall have the fullest effect permitted
under the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act of 1976 of the United States of America (28 U.S.C. §§ 1602-1611) and are intended
to be irrevocable and not subject to withdrawal for purposes of such Act.



 


		18.12	Further Assurances



 


The Borrower shall, and shall cause each other
Obligor and Specified Entity to, from time to time and at all times hereafter, upon every reasonable request of the Administrative Agent,
make, do, execute, and deliver or cause to be made, done, executed and delivered all such further acts, deeds, assurances and things as
may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent for more effectually implementing and carrying out the true intent
and meaning of the Credit Documents or any agreement delivered pursuant to this Agreement or thereto and such additional security, legal
opinions, consents, approvals, acknowledgements, undertakings, non-disturbance agreements, directions and negotiable documents of title
in connection with the property and assets of the Obligor, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably from time to time reasonably request, to ensure (a) that all Secured Assets are subject to a Lien in favour of the
Administrative Agent and (b) the intended first ranking priority of such Liens.


 


		18.13	Judgment Currency



 


		(a)	If, for the purpose of obtaining or enforcing judgment against the Borrower in any court in any jurisdiction,
it becomes necessary to convert into a particular currency (such currency being hereinafter in this Section ‎18.13
referred to as the “Judgment Currency”) an amount due in another currency (such other currency being hereinafter in
this Section ‎18.13 referred to as the “Indebtedness Currency”) under this
Agreement, the conversion shall be made at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Banking Day immediately preceding:



 


		(i)	the date of actual payment of the amount due, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of a jurisdiction
that will give effect to such conversion being made on such date; or



 


		(ii)	the date on which the judgment is given, in the case of any proceeding in the courts of any other jurisdiction
(the date as of which such conversion is made pursuant to this Section ‎18.13(a)(ii) being hereinafter
in this Section ‎18.13 referred to as the “Judgment Conversion Date”).



 


		(b)	If, in the case of any proceeding in the court of any jurisdiction referred to in Section ‎18.13(a)(ii),
there is a change in the rate of exchange prevailing between the Judgment Conversion Date and the date of actual payment of the amount
due, the Borrower shall pay to the appropriate judgment creditor or creditors such additional amount (if any, but in any event not a lesser
amount) as may be necessary to ensure that the amount paid in the Judgment Currency, when converted at the rate of exchange prevailing
on the date of payment, will produce the amount of the Indebtedness Currency which could have been purchased with the amount of Judgment
Currency stipulated in the judgment or judicial order at the rate of exchange prevailing on the Judgment Conversion Date.



 




    93 


     


    

		(c)	Any amount due from the Borrower under the provisions of Section ‎18.13(b)
shall be due to the appropriate judgment creditor or creditors as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained
for any other amounts due under or in respect of this Agreement.



 


		(d)	The term “rate of exchange” in this Section ‎18.13
means the rate at which in accordance with normal banking procedures a Finance Party, as applicable, could convert the Indebtedness Currency
into the Judgment Currency on the day in question.



 


		18.14	Anti-Money Laundering Legislation



 


The Borrower acknowledges that, pursuant to Anti-Money
Laundering and Terrorism Legislation, the Finance Parties may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding each Obligor
and Specified Entity, their respective directors, authorized signing officers, or other persons in Control of such Obligor (other than
any shareholder of the Borrower), and the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents, and disclose such information to Official
Bodies. The Borrower consents to such information being obtained, verified, recorded and disclosed to Official Bodies and agrees to promptly
provide to the Finance Parties all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested
by a Finance Party, or any prospective Transferee or in order to comply with Anti- Money Laundering and Terrorism Legislation.


 


		18.15	Interest Rate Limitation



 


Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest
on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum
Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with
applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof,
shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such
Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such
Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount,
together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.


 


		18.16	Disclosure



 


		(a)	Each of the Administrative Agent and the other Finance Parties agrees to use all Information solely for
the purposes of providing services that are the subject of the Finance Documents and shall treat confidentially all such Information,
except that Information may be disclosed:



 


		(i)	to it, its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents,
credit insurers and reinsurers, advisors and representatives (where the Persons to whom disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential
nature of the Information and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section ‎18.16 or enter
into an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as the provisions of this Section ‎18.16);



 


		(ii)	to the extent requested, and where such disclosure is required by Applicable Law, by any regulatory authority
purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority);



 


		(iii)	to the extent required by Applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process;



 


		(iv)	to any other Finance Party;



 




    94 


     


    

		(v)	in connection with the exercise of any remedies under any Credit Document or any action or proceeding
relating to any Credit Document or the enforcement of rights under the Credit Documents;



 


		(vi)	subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to:



 


		(A)	any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights
or obligations under this Agreement; or



 


		(B)	any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Risk Management Agreement, credit-linked
note or similar transaction relating to the Borrower and the Secured Obligations, and any credit insurance or reinsurance provider relating
to the Borrower and its Secured Obligations,



 


		(vii)	with the consent of the Borrower; or



 


		(viii)	to the extent Information:



 


		(A)	becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section; or



 


		(B)	becomes available to the Administrative Agent or any Finance Party on a non-confidential basis from a
source other than an Obligor.



 


		(b)	For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received in connection
with any Credit Document from any Obligor relating to any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other
than any such information that was available to the Administrative Agent or any other Finance Party on a non-confidential basis before
such receipt. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have
complied with its obligation to do so if the Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of the Information
as the Person would accord to its own confidential information. In addition, the Administrative Agent may disclose to any agency or organization
that assigns standard identification numbers to loan facilities such basic information describing the Facility as is necessary to assign
unique identifiers, it being understood that the Person to whom disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of the
Information and instructed to make available to the public only such Information as the Person normally makes available in the course
of its business of assigning identification numbers.



 


		(c)	In addition, the Administrative Agent may provide customary information including details of the Obligors,
the amount, term, purpose, pricing and repayment requirements of the Facility and the principal covenants contained in this Agreement
to Loan Pricing Corporation and/or other recognized trade publishers of information for general circulation in the loan market.
