          Borrower, as a mandatory prepayment, as to which clause 8 below shall
          apply, to repay the last instalment of the Loans otherwise payable in
          June 2012 and (1)/2 (one-half) of the penultimate instalment otherwise

          EBITDA for any Quarter equals or exceeds US $50,000,000 (fifty million

          mandatory quarterly prepayments shall be in a minimum amount of US
          $25,000,000 (twenty-five million United States Dollars), in which case
          the Aggregate Trigger Prepayment Amount would be paid in 2 (two)
          quarterly instalments rather than in 3 (three). For the avoidance of
          doubt and by way of illustration only, should the Equipment Facility
          Credits be paid in full on or prior to June 30, 2009 and the
          Triggering Quarter be the Quarter ended June 30, 2009, the Banks would
          have the option to require said mandatory prepayments to be made on
          the last Business Days in each of September 2009, December 2009 and
          March 2010, respectively, and, should the Quarter ended June 30, 2009

          of September 2009 and the remainder of the Aggregate Trigger

                    each of the 2 (two) years ended with the last Fiscal Year
                    included in the Annual Report (inclusive) (including the

                    of income, changes in shareholders' equity and cash flow for
                    each of the Fiscal Years then ended, together with the
                    report thereon of the Auditors); and (b) unaudited reviewed
                    consolidated Accounts of the Borrower as at the Quarter
                    included in the most recently filed Report on Form 6-K

                    adverse); the Accounts referred to in this clause 15.8.2
                    reflect the consistent application of such accounting

               obligation contained in any Equipment Facility provided to the
               Borrower by an Equipment Lender and, if such breach if capable of

               the Borrower of written notice from such Equipment Lender
               requiring the failure to be remedied, the Borrower shall have
               failed to cure such default."
