Party”) receives or recovers any amount from any Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment mechanics) (a “Recovered Amount”) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

  

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

  

	 	(b)	the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in
accordance with Clause 31 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and 


 

	 	(c)	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which
the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 31.4 (Partial payments). 


 

	30.2	Redistribution of payments 

 The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been
paid by any of the Obligors and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the “Sharing Finance Parties”) in accordance with Clause 31.4 (Partial payments). 

 

	30.3	Recovering Finance Party’s rights 

 On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 30.2
(Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between that Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having
been paid by that Obligor. 
  

	30.4	Reversal of redistribution 

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

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


  

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


 

	30.5	Exceptions 

  

	 	(a)	This Clause 30 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the Obligors. 


  
 74 | 106 









	 	(b)	A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:


  

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

  

	 	(ii)	the other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or
arbitration proceedings.

	31	PAYMENT MECHANICS 

  

	31.1	Payments to the Agent 

  

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


 

	 	(b)	Payment shall be made to such account with such bank as the Agent specifies. 

  

	31.2	Distributions by the Agent 

 Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance
Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 31.3 (Clawback) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement, to such account as that Party may
notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice. 
  

	31.3	Clawback 

  

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

  

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


  
 75 | 106 









	31.4	Partial payments 

  

	 	(a)	If the Agent receives a payment for application against amounts due in respect of any Finance Documents that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by the Borrower under those Finance

	 	(i)	firstly, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Agent and Security Agent under the Finance Documents; 


 

	 	(ii)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest (including default interest), fees or commissions due but unpaid under the Finance Documents (excluding any Hedging Agreement); 


 

	 	(iii)	thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal due but unpaid and indemnification due but unpaid under the Finance Documents (excluding any Hedging Agreement); 


 

	 	(iv)	fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Finance Documents (excluding any Hedging Agreement); and

	 	(a)	Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each Obligor hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Security Agent as creditor in its own right and not as representative of the other
Finance Parties, sums equal to and in the currency of each amount payable by the Obligors to each of the Finance Parties under each of the Finance Documents as and when that amount falls due for payment under the relevant Finance Document (the
“Parallel Debt”). Any security granted to secure such Parallel Debt shall not be held on trust by the Security Agent. 

  

	 	(b)	The Security Agent shall have its own independent right to demand payment of the amounts payable by each Obligor (including, without limitation, through any suit, execution, enforcement of security, recovery of
guarantees and applications for and voting in any kind of insolvency proceeding) under this Clause 31.6 (Parallel debt). 


  
 76 | 106 









	 	(c)	Any amount due and payable by each Obligor to the Security Agent under this Clause 31.6 (Parallel debt) shall be decreased to the extent that the other Finance Parties have received payment in full or in part
(which payment has not been rescinded or otherwise restored or returned) of the corresponding amount under the other provisions of the Finance Documents, and any amount due and payable by each Obligor to the other Finance Parties under those
provisions shall be decreased to the extent that the Security Agent has received payment in full or in part (which payment has not been rescinded or otherwise restored or returned) of the corresponding amount under this Clause 31.6 (Parallel
debt). 

  

	31.7	Business Days 

  

	 	(a)	Any payment which is due to be made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

	31.8	Currency of account 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to paragraphs (b) to (d) below, USD is the currency of account and payment for any sum due from any Obligor under any Finance Document.

	 	(c)	Each payment in respect of costs, expenses or Taxes shall be made in the currency in which the costs, expenses or Taxes are incurred.

any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired. 
  

	35	REMEDIES AND WAIVERS 

 No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part
of any Finance Party, any right or remedy under the Finance Documents shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The
