**LIBERTY MEDIA CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES**

**Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements**

**(unaudited)**

**(1) Basis of Presentation**

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of Liberty Media Corporation and its controlled subsidiaries ("Liberty," the "Company," "we," "us," or "our" unless the context otherwise requires). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

Liberty, through its ownership of interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the media and entertainment industries primarily in North America and the United Kingdom. Liberty's most significant subsidiary is Delta Topco Limited (the parent company of Formula 1). Our most significant investment accounted for under the equity method is Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. ("Live Nation").

Sirius XM Holdings Inc. ("Sirius XM Holdings") was a subsidiary of the Company until the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off (as defined in note 2) on September 9, 2024. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc. ("Liberty Sirius XM Holdings"), which included Sirius XM Holdings, is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. See note 2 for details of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off.

The accompanying (a) condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, which has been derived from audited financial statements, and (b) the interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation of the results for such periods have been included. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. Additionally, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for comparability with current period presentation. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto contained in Liberty's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The Company considers (i) fair value measurement of non-financial instruments and (ii) accounting for income taxes to be its most significant estimates**.**

Liberty holds investments that are accounted for using the equity method. Liberty does not control the decision making process or business management practices of these affiliates. Accordingly, Liberty relies on management of these affiliates to provide it with accurate financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP that the Company uses in the application of the equity method. In addition, Liberty relies on audit reports that are provided by the affiliates' independent auditors on the financial statements of such affiliates. The Company is not aware, however, of any errors in or possible misstatements of the financial information provided by its equity affiliates that would have a material effect on Liberty's condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 3, 2025, the Company acquired approximately 84% of the equity interests in Dorna Sports, S.L. ("MotoGP") for a preliminary purchase price of approximately $3.7 billion, funded with cash on hand and borrowings of $1.0 billion under the Incremental Term Loans, as defined in note 8. In December 2024, the Company agreed to pay €126 million of the purchase price to the sellers in order to accommodate the European Commission's extended regulatory review of the acquisition. The €126 million, paid in January 2025, was considered prepaid purchase consideration and is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Prior

to the acquisition, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts for close to the full purchase price. A portion of the foreign currency forward contracts settled on June 30, 2025 and the remainder settled in July 2025. Due to the timing of the acquisition of MotoGP, the initial accounting for the acquisition was not complete at the time the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company is in the process of determining the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired, which will primarily be comprised of goodwill, MotoGP's rights holder agreement with the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme and customer relationships. MotoGP is attributed to the Formula One Group, as defined in note 3.

Liberty has entered into certain agreements with QVC Group, Inc., formerly known as Qurate Retail, Inc. ("QVC Group"), Liberty TripAdvisor Holdings, Inc. ("TripCo"), Liberty Broadband Corporation ("Liberty Broadband"), Liberty Sirius XM Holdings and Atlanta Braves Holdings, Inc. ("Atlanta Braves Holdings"), all of which are separate publicly traded companies, in order to govern our relationships with these companies. None of these companies has any stock ownership, beneficial or otherwise, in any of the others. These agreements include Reorganization Agreements (in the case of QVC Group, Liberty Broadband, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings and Atlanta Braves Holdings only), Services Agreements (in the case of QVC Group, TripCo, Liberty Broadband and Atlanta Braves Holdings only), Facilities Sharing Agreements (in the case of QVC Group, TripCo, Liberty Broadband and Atlanta Braves Holdings only), Tax Sharing Agreements (in the case of Liberty Broadband, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings and Atlanta Braves Holdings only) and an Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement (in the case of Liberty Broadband and Atlanta Braves Holdings only). In addition, as a result of certain corporate transactions, Liberty and QVC Group may have obligations to each other for certain tax related matters. Effective August 31, 2024, the Facilities Sharing Agreement and the Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement with Atlanta Braves Holdings were terminated and members of Liberty management that served as officers of Atlanta Braves Holdings stepped down from their positions with Atlanta Braves Holdings (with limited exceptions), even though they may continue to provide services on an as-needed basis for a de minimis expense.

The Reorganization Agreements provide for, among other things, provisions governing the relationships between Liberty and each of QVC Group, Liberty Broadband, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings and Atlanta Braves Holdings, including certain cross-indemnities. Under the Facilities Sharing Agreements, Liberty shares office space and related amenities at its corporate headquarters with QVC Group, Liberty Broadband, TripCo until April 29, 2025 and Atlanta Braves Holdings until August 31, 2024. Pursuant to the Services Agreements, Liberty provides QVC Group, Liberty Broadband, Atlanta Braves Holdings and TripCo until April 29, 2025, with general and administrative services including legal, tax, accounting, treasury, information technology, cybersecurity and investor relations support. QVC Group, Liberty Broadband, Atlanta Braves Holdings and TripCo reimburse Liberty for direct, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Liberty in providing these services and, in the case of QVC Group, QVC Group's allocable portion of costs associated with any shared services or personnel based on an estimated percentage of time spent providing services to QVC Group. Liberty Broadband, Atlanta Braves Holdings and TripCo reimburse Liberty for shared services and personnel based on a flat fee. Liberty and QVC Group intend to transition various general and administrative services currently provided to QVC Group under the Services Agreement to members of the QVC, Inc. management team. As part of the transition, effective March 31, 2025, members of Liberty management that served as officers of QVC Group stepped down from their positions with QVC Group (with limited exceptions). Under these various agreements, approximately $4 million and $5 million of these allocated expenses were reimbursed to Liberty during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $9 million and $11 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In July 2025, Liberty entered into a services agreement, facilities sharing agreement and aircraft time sharing agreement with GCI Liberty, Inc. ("GCI Liberty"). Pursuant to the services agreement, Liberty will provide GCI Liberty with public company support services, including legal, tax, accounting, treasury, internal auditing and investor relations services. GCI Liberty will reimburse Liberty for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Liberty in providing the services and will pay a services fee that will be subject to review and evaluation for reasonableness on a quarterly basis.

***Seasonality***

Formula 1 recognizes the majority of its revenue and expenses in connection with the FIA Formula One World Championship (the "F1 Championship") race events ("Events") that take place in different countries around the world throughout the year. The Events in the past have generally taken place between March and December each year. As a result, the revenue and expenses recognized by Formula 1 are generally lower during the first quarter as compared to the rest of the quarters throughout the year.

QuintEvents, LLC's ("QuintEvents") revenue is seasonal around its largest events, which are generally during the second and fourth quarters.

**(2) Discontinued Operations**

On September 9, 2024, Liberty completed the split-off of its wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings (the "Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off"). The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was accomplished through the redemption by the Company of each outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock in exchange for 0.8375 of a share of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings common stock, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings was comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group immediately prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off. The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was intended to be tax-free to holders of Liberty SiriusXM common stock (except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares).

Following the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, on September 9, 2024, a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings merged with and into Sirius XM Holdings, with Sirius XM Holdings surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings (the "Merger" and, together with the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the "Transactions"). As a result of the Transactions, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings became an independent public company separate from Liberty.

As disclosed in note 1, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.

**(3) Tracking Stocks**

A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole.

On August 3, 2023, the Company reclassified its then-outstanding shares of common stock into three new tracking stocks — Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Formula One common stock and Liberty Live common stock, and, in connection therewith, provided for the attribution of the businesses, assets and liabilities of the Company's remaining tracking stock groups among its newly created Liberty SiriusXM Group, Liberty Formula One Group (the "Formula One Group") and Liberty Live Group (the "Reclassification"). As a result of the Reclassification, each then-outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty SiriusXM common stock and 0.2500 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock and each outstanding share of Liberty Formula One common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty Formula One common stock and 0.0428 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock.

While the Formula One Group and the Liberty Live Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, neither group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stock have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and therefore, do not own, by virtue of their ownership of shares of Liberty tracking stock, any equity or voting interest in a public company, such as Live Nation, in which Liberty holds an interest that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, in this case the Liberty Live Group. Holders of tracking stock are also not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

The Liberty Formula One common stock is intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Formula One Group, which as of June 30, 2025 include Liberty's interests in Formula 1 and QuintEvents, cash and Liberty's 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027. As of June 30, 2025, the Formula One Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,140 million, which included $1,845 million of subsidiary cash.

The Liberty Live common stock is intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty Live Group. As of June 30, 2025, the Liberty Live Group is primarily comprised of Liberty's interest in Live Nation, cash, other minority investments, Liberty's 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 and an undrawn margin loan. As of June 30, 2025, the Liberty Live Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $308 million.

Prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM common stock was intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. At the time of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM Group was comprised of Liberty's interest in Sirius XM Holdings, corporate cash, Liberty's 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, Liberty's 2.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049 and a margin loan obligation incurred by a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of Liberty. As disclosed in note 1, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

On November 13, 2024, the Company announced that it is pursuing a plan to splitoff the Liberty Live Group (the "Liberty Live Split-Off"). Immediately prior to the Liberty Live Split-Off, QuintEvents, certain private assets and cash will be reattributed from the Formula One Group to the Liberty Live Group in exchange for certain private assets attributed to the Liberty Live Group. Any cash consideration will be determined at a future date based on relative valuations of the assets that are being reattributed. The Liberty Live Split-Off will be effected through the redemption of Liberty Live common stock in exchange for common stock of a newly formed company, Liberty Live Holdings, Inc. ("Liberty Live"). The Company will redeem each outstanding share of its Series A, Series B and Series C Liberty Live common stock for one share of the corresponding series of common stock of Liberty Live. As a result of the Liberty Live Split-Off, the Company and Liberty Live will be separate publicly traded companies, and the Company's outstanding common stock, the Liberty Formula One common stock, will no longer be a tracking stock. The Liberty Live Split-Off is subject to various conditions including, among other things, shareholder approval and the receipt of an opinion of tax counsel. The Liberty Live Split-Off is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025 and is intended to be tax-free to stockholders of the Company.

See Exhibit 99.1 to this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for unaudited attributed financial information for Liberty's tracking stock groups.

**(4) Stock-Based Compensation**

Liberty grants, to certain of its directors, employees and employees of its subsidiaries, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and stock options to purchase shares of its common stock (collectively, "Awards"). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an equity classified Award (such as stock options and restricted stock) based on the grant-date fair value ("GDFV") of the Award, and recognizes that cost over the period during which the employee is required to provide service (usually the vesting period of the Award). The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for a liability classified Award based on the current fair value of the Award, and remeasures the fair value of the Award at each reporting date. Stock-based compensation expense, included in selling, general and administrative expense in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations, was $8 million and $7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $10 million and $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Grants of Awards***

Options granted during the six months ended June 30, 2025 are summarized as follows:

The Company did not grant any options to purchase shares of Series A or Series B Liberty Formula One or Liberty Live common stock during the six months ended June 30, 2025.

Also during the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company granted 178 thousand and 62 thousand time-based RSUs of Series C common stock of Liberty Formula One and Liberty Live, respectively, to our CEO. The RSUs had a weighted average GDFV of $94.11 per share and $76.45 per share, respectively, and cliff vest on December 15, 2029.

Liberty calculates the GDFV for all of its equity classified options and the subsequent remeasurement of its liability classified options using the Black-Scholes Model. Liberty estimates the expected term of the options based on historical exercise and forfeiture data. The volatility used in the calculation for options is based on the historical volatility of Liberty common stock and, when available, the implied volatility of publicly traded Liberty options. Liberty uses a zero-dividend rate and the risk-free rate for Treasury Bonds with a term similar to that of the subject options.

***Outstanding Awards***

The following tables present the number and weighted average exercise price ("WAEP") of options to purchase Liberty common stock granted to certain officers, employees and directors of the Company, as well as the weighted average remaining life and aggregate intrinsic value of the options.

As of June 30, 2025, there were no outstanding options to purchase shares of Series A or Series B Liberty Formula One or Liberty Live common stock.

As of June 30, 2025, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Awards was approximately $40 million. Such amount will be recognized in the Company's condensed consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 0.8 years.

As of June 30, 2025, Liberty reserved 3.6 million shares and 1.2 million shares of Series C common stock of Liberty Formula One and Liberty Live, respectively, for issuance under exercise privileges of outstanding stock options.

**(5) Earnings Attributable to Liberty Media Corporation Stockholders Per Common Share** 

Basic earnings (loss) per common share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net earnings (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding ("WASO") for the period. Diluted EPS presents the dilutive effect on a per share basis of potential common shares as if they had been converted at the beginning of the periods presented, including any necessary adjustments to earnings (loss) attributable to shareholders.

Excluded from diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 are approximately 6 million and 3 million potentially dilutive shares of Series A and Series C Liberty Formula One common stock, respectively, because their inclusion would be antidilutive. There were no potentially dilutive shares of Liberty Live common stock excluded from diluted EPS for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, because their inclusion would be antidilutive.

**(6) Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value**

For assets and liabilities required to be reported at fair value, GAAP provides a hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the reporting entity has the ability to access at the measurement date. Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted market prices included within Level 1, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the asset or liability. Liberty does not have any assets or liabilities required to be measured at fair value considered to be Level 3.

| Financial instrument liabilities | $90 |  | 90 | 138 |  | 138 |

The majority of Liberty's Level 2 financial instruments are debt related instruments and derivative instruments, which include foreign currency forward contracts, interest rate swaps and forward contracts. These assets and liabilities are not always traded publicly or not considered to be traded on "active markets," as defined in GAAP. The fair values for such instruments are derived from a typical model using observable market data as the significant inputs or a trading price of a similar asset or liability is utilized. Accordingly, those financial instruments and debt or debt related instruments are reported in the foregoing table as Level 2 fair value. As of June 30, 2025, $130 million of financial instrument assets in the table above, which includes $125 million of foreign currency forward contracts, are included in the current assets line item in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2025, $114 million of financial instrument assets included in the table above are included in the other assets line items in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024, $27 million and $140 million of financial instrument assets included in the table above are included in the other current assets and other assets line items, respectively, in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of June 30, 2025, financial instrument liabilities in the table above, which are comprised of the Live Nation Forward Contracts, as defined in note 8, are included in other liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. As of December 31, 2024, financial instrument liabilities in the table above are comprised of foreign currency forward contracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company elected to account for its exchangeable senior debentures and convertible notes (as described in note 8) using the fair value option. Changes in the fair value of the exchangeable senior debentures and convertible notes recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations are due to market factors primarily driven by changes in the fair value of the underlying shares into which the debt is exchangeable. The Company isolates the portion of the unrealized gain (loss) attributable to changes in the instrument specific credit risk and recognizes such amount in other comprehensive earnings (loss). The change in the fair value of the exchangeable senior debentures and convertible notes attributable to changes in the instrument specific credit risk was a gain of $13 million and gain of $30 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and a loss of $8 million and a loss of $8 million for the six months ended June 30, 3025 and 2024, respectively. The cumulative change since issuance was a gain of $43 million as of June 30, 2025, net of the recognition of previously unrecognized gains and losses.

***2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027***

On August 12, 2022, Liberty issued $475 million convertible notes at an interest rate of 2.25% per annum, which, at Liberty's election, are convertible into cash, shares of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock or a combination of cash and shares of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock and mature on August 15, 2027. As of June 30, 2025, the conversion rate for the notes is approximately 12.0505 shares of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $82.98 per share of Series C Liberty Formula One common stock. The notes are attributed to the Formula One Group. Liberty has elected to account for the notes using the fair value option. See note 6 for information related to unrealized gains (losses) on debt measured at fair value.

***2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 and Live Nation Forward Contracts***

In September 2023, Liberty closed a private offering of approximately $1.15 billion aggregate principal amount of its 2.375% exchangeable senior debentures due 2053 (the "2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053"). Upon an exchange of debentures, Liberty, at its option, may deliver Live Nation common stock, cash or a combination of Live Nation common stock and/or cash. The number of shares of Live Nation common stock attributable to a debenture represents an initial exchange price of approximately $104.91 per share. A total of approximately 11 million shares of Live Nation common stock are attributable to the debentures. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The debentures may be redeemed by Liberty, in whole or in part, on or after September 30, 2028. Holders of the debentures also have the right to require Liberty to purchase their debentures on September 30, 2028. The redemption and purchase price will generally equal 100% of the adjusted principal amount of the debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, plus any final period distribution. The debentures are attributed to the Liberty Live Group. Liberty has elected to account for the debentures using the fair value option. See note 6 for information related to unrealized gains (losses) on debt measured at fair value.

The assumption of the debentures by Liberty Live in connection with the proposed Liberty Live Split-Off, as described in note 2, entitles the holders of the debentures, for a brief period after the Liberty Live Split-Off, to the right to either put at par or exchange their debentures for shares of Live Nation common stock, or an equivalent cash amount, at the election of Liberty Live, on the terms described in the indenture under which the debentures were issued.

In May 2025, LN Holdings 1, LLC ("LNSPV"), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty, entered into certain agreements (the "Live Nation Forward Contracts"), which obligate LNSPV to deliver up to an aggregate of approximately 10.5 million shares of Live Nation common stock based on the share prices for such stock over a specified period ended in the first quarter of 2027. Alternatively, LNSPV may choose to deliver cash. As of June 30, 2025, approximately 10.5 million shares of the Company's Live Nation common stock with a value of $1,587 million were pledged as collateral to the Live Nation Forward Contracts. The Live Nation Forward Contracts allow LNSPV to elect to receive prepayment amounts up to the present value at such time or times of approximately $1.15 billion, in the aggregate, which is intended to provide a source of liquidity, if needed, to satisfy any puts or exchanges of the debentures. Liberty does not intend to cause LNSPV to receive any such prepayment amounts under the Live Nation Forward Contracts unless necessary to cash settle puts or exchanges made by holders of the debentures. The Live Nation Forward Contracts are attributed to the Liberty Live Group.

As of June 30, 2025, the holders of the 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 will have the ability to exchange their debentures for the period from July 1, 2025 to September 30, 2025, given that the trading value of the reference shares exceeded 130% of the par value for at least twenty of the last thirty trading days in the second quarter of 2025. Given the holders' ability to exchange the debentures within a one-year period from the balance sheet date and the Company's option to settle any exchange in cash, shares of Live Nation common stock, or a combination of cash and

shares of Live Nation common stock, the 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 have been classified as current within the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2025.

***Live Nation Margin Loan***

On May 9, 2022, the Live Nation Margin Loan agreement was amended, replacing a delayed draw term loan with a $400 million revolving line of credit, changing the interest rate to the Adjusted Term Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR") plus Term SOFR Adjustment (0.1%) plus 2.0% and extending the maturity to May 9, 2025. On September 5, 2023, the Live Nation Margin Loan agreement was amended to, among other things, extend the maturity date to September 9, 2026 and change the interest rate to Term SOFR plus 2.0%. The undrawn portion carries a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum. Interest on the margin loan is payable on the last business day of each calendar quarter. As of June 30, 2025, availability under the Live Nation Margin Loan was $400 million. As of June 30, 2025, 9.0 million shares of the Company's Live Nation common stock with a value of $1,357 million were pledged as collateral to the loan. The Live Nation Margin Loan contains various affirmative and negative covenants that restrict the activities of the borrower. The loan agreement does not include any financial covenants. The Live Nation Margin Loan is attributed to the Liberty Live Group.

***Formula 1 Senior Loan Facilities***

On November 23, 2022, Formula 1 refinanced its previous Term Loan B and revolving credit facility with a new $725 million first lien Term Loan A, a refinanced $1.7 billion Term Loan B and a new $500 million revolving credit facility. On September 19, 2024, Formula 1 refinanced the Term Loan B with a new $1.7 billion Term Loan B and extended the maturities of the approximately $689 million Term Loan A and the $500 million revolving credit facility (collectively, the "Senior Loan Facilities"). The Term Loan A and revolving credit facility mature on September 30, 2029 and the Term Loan B matures on September 30, 2031. As of June 30, 2025, there were no outstanding borrowings under the $500 million revolving credit facility. The margin for the Term Loan B, originally set at 3.25%, stepped down to 3.00% effective May 5, 2023, after a certain leverage test was met as of March 31, 2023. Formula 1 repriced the Term Loan B on October 4, 2023, reducing the margin to 2.25%. On September 19, 2024, the margin for the Term Loan B was reduced to 2.0%, with the potential to permanently step down to 1.75% if a certain leverage test is met after the acquisition of MotoGP. The margin for the Term Loan A and revolving credit facility is between 1.50% and 2.25% depending on leverage ratios, among other things, and was fixed at 1.75% for the first year and reduced to 1.5% effective November 24, 2023. The reference rate for the Term Loan A, Term Loan B and dollar borrowings under the revolving credit facility is Term SOFR. The weighted average interest rate on the Senior Loan Facilities was approximately 6.15% as of June 30, 2025. The Senior Loan Facilities remain non-recourse to Liberty. The Senior Loan Facilities are secured by share pledges and floating charges over Formula 1's primary operating companies with certain cross guarantees. Additionally, in order to manage the interest rate risk of its $2.4 billion Senior Loan Facilities, Formula 1 had $2.2 billion of interest rate swaps as of June 30, 2025, with a termination date in September 2031 and an early termination date in September 2029, at the option of the counterparty.

In connection with the September 19, 2024 refinancing, Formula 1 also marketed an incremental $850 million of Term Loan B funding, which is in addition to an incremental $150 million of commitments to the newly extended Term Loan A obtained in April 2024 (collectively, the "Incremental Term Loans"). The financing of the Incremental Term loans closed on July 1, 2025 and was used to fund a portion of the MotoGP acquisition, as described in note 1.

***Debt Covenants***

The Formula 1 Senior Loan Facilities contain certain financial covenants, including a leverage ratio. Additionally, Formula 1's debt and other borrowings contain certain non-financial covenants.

***Fair Value of Debt***

Due to the variable rate nature of the Live Nation Margin Loan and other debt, the Company believes that the carrying amount approximates fair value at June 30, 2025.

**(9) Commitments and Contingencies**

***Concorde Agreement***

The 2021 Concorde Agreement provides, among other things, for the participation of the teams in the F1 Championship and provides for Formula 1 to make certain prize fund payments to the teams. The 2021 Concorde Agreement expires on December 31, 2025 and is made up of two separate documents: (a) the 2021 Concorde Commercial Agreement between Formula 1 and each of the teams; and (b) the 2021 Concorde Governance Agreement between Formula 1, the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile ("FIA") and each of the teams.

In March 2025, Formula 1 paid a total of $50 million to the 10 teams currently competing in the F1 Championship as an incentive for signing the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement. The 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement addresses arrangements between Formula 1 and the teams for the F1 Championship seasons covering the period 2026 to 2030, and expires on December 31, 2030. A 2026 Concorde Governance Agreement for the same period is under discussion with the FIA and the teams. The $50 million one-time payment to the teams is excluded from Adjusted OIBDA (as defined below) for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

***Guarantees***

In connection with agreements for the sale of assets by the Company or its subsidiaries, the Company may retain liabilities that relate to events occurring prior to its sale, such as tax, environmental, litigation and employment matters. The Company generally indemnifies the purchaser in the event that a third party asserts a claim against the purchaser that relates to a liability retained by the Company. These types of indemnification obligations may extend for a number of years. The Company is unable to estimate the maximum potential liability for these types of indemnification obligations as the sale agreements may not specify a maximum amount and the amounts are dependent upon the outcome of future contingent events, the nature and likelihood of which cannot be determined at this time. Historically, the Company has not made any significant indemnification payments under such agreements and no amount has been accrued in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements with respect to these indemnification guarantees.

***Litigation***

The Company has contingent liabilities related to legal and tax proceedings and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. Although it is reasonably possible the Company may incur losses upon conclusion of such matters, an estimate of any loss or range of loss cannot be made. In the opinion of management, it is expected that amounts, if any, which may be required to satisfy such contingencies will not be material in relation to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

**(10) Information About Liberty's Operating Segments**

The Company, through its ownership interests in subsidiaries and other companies, is primarily engaged in the media and entertainment industries. The Company identifies its reportable segments as (A) those consolidated subsidiaries that represent 10% or more of its consolidated annual revenue, annual Adjusted OIBDA or total assets and (B) those equity method affiliates whose share of earnings represent 10% or more of the Company's annual pre-tax earnings.

Liberty's chief operating decision maker, the chief executive officer, evaluates performance and makes decisions about allocating resources to the Company's reportable segments based on financial measures such as revenue, operating expenses (including team payments and other cost of revenue), selling, general and administrative expenses and Adjusted OIBDA.

For segment reporting purposes, the Company defines Adjusted OIBDA as revenue less operating expenses, and selling, general and administrative expenses excluding all stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, Concorde incentive payments and restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges. The Company believes this measure is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of its businesses, by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business' performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows management to view operating results and perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. This measure of performance excludes depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, Concorde incentive payments and restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges that are included in the measurement of operating income pursuant to GAAP. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company generally accounts for intersegment sales and transfers as if the sales or transfers were to third parties, that is, at current prices.

Formula 1, a reportable segment, is a global motorsports business that holds exclusive commercial rights with respect to the F1 Championship, an annual, approximately nine-month long, motor race-based competition in which teams compete for the Constructors' Championship and drivers compete for the Drivers' Championship. The F1 Championship takes place on various circuits with a varying number of Events taking place in different countries around the world each season. Formula 1 is responsible for the commercial exploitation and development of the F1 Championship as well as various aspects of its management and administration.

As of December 31, 2024, Live Nation met the Company's reportable segment threshold for equity method affiliates. See note 7 for segment disclosures related to Live Nation.

The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that offer different products and services. They are managed separately because each segment requires different technologies, differing revenue sources and marketing strategies. The significant accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Company's summary of significant policies in the Company's annual financial statements filed on Form 10-K.

Our subsidiaries' customers generally pay for services in advance of the performance obligation and therefore these prepayments are recorded as deferred revenue. The deferred revenue is recognized as revenue in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations as the services are provided.

Significant portions of the transaction prices are related to undelivered performance obligations that are under contractual arrangements that extend beyond one year. The Company anticipates recognizing revenue from the delivery of such performance obligations of approximately $1,542 million for the remainder of 2025, $2,624 million in 2026, $2,364 million in 2027, $6,050 million in 2028 through 2032, and $1,716 million thereafter. We have not included any amounts in the undelivered performance obligations amounts for those performance obligations that relate to a contract with an original expected duration of one year or less.

A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole.

On August 3, 2023, the Company reclassified its then-outstanding shares of common stock into three new tracking stocks — Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Formula One common stock and Liberty Live common stock, and, in connection therewith, provided for the attribution of the businesses, assets and liabilities of the Company's remaining tracking stock groups among its newly created Liberty SiriusXM Group, Formula One Group and Liberty Live Group (the "Reclassification"). As a result of the Reclassification, each then-outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty SiriusXM common stock and 0.2500 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock and each outstanding share of Liberty Formula One common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty Formula One common stock and 0.0428 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock.

On September 9, 2024, Liberty completed the split-off (the "Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off") of its wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc. ("Liberty Sirius XM Holdings"). The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was accomplished through the redemption by the Company of each outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock in exchange for 0.8375 of a share of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings common stock, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings was comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group immediately prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off. The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was intended to be tax-free to holders of Liberty SiriusXM common stock (except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares).

Following the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, on September 9, 2024, a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings merged with and into Sirius XM Holdings Inc. ("Sirius XM Holdings"), with Sirius XM Holdings surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings (the "Merger" and, together with the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the "Transactions"). As a result of the Transactions, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings is an independent public company separate from Liberty.

While the Formula One Group and the Liberty Live Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, neither group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stock have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and therefore, do not own, by virtue of their ownership of shares of Liberty tracking stock, any equity or voting interest in a public company, such as Live Nation, in which Liberty holds an interest that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, in this case the Liberty Live Group. Holders of tracking stock are also not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

As of June 30, 2025, the Formula One Group is primarily comprised of Liberty's interests in Formula 1 and QuintEvents, cash and Liberty's 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027. The Formula One Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,140 million as of June 30, 2025, which included $1,845 million of subsidiary cash.

As of June 30, 2025, the Liberty Live Group is primarily comprised of Liberty's interest in Live Nation, cash, other minority investments, Liberty's 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 and an undrawn margin loan. As of June 30, 2025, the Liberty Live Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $308 million.

Prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM common stock was intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. At the time of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM Group was comprised of Liberty's interest in Sirius XM Holdings, corporate cash, Liberty's 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, Liberty's 2.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049 and a margin loan obligation incurred by a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of Liberty. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings is presented as a discontinued operation in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 3, 2025, the Company acquired approximately 84% of the equity interests in Dorna Sports, S.L. ("MotoGP") for a preliminary purchase price of approximately $3.7 billion, funded with cash on hand and borrowings of $1.0 billion under the Incremental Term Loans, as defined in note 8 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements. In December 2024, the Company agreed to pay €126 million of the purchase price to the sellers in order to accommodate the European Commission's extended regulatory review of the acquisition. The €126 million, paid in January 2025, was considered prepaid purchase consideration and is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Prior to the acquisition, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts for close to the full purchase price. A portion of the foreign currency forward contracts settled on June 30, 2025 and the remainder settled in July 2025. Due to the timing of the acquisition of MotoGP, the initial accounting for the acquisition was not complete at the time the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company is in the process of determining the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired, which will primarily be comprised of goodwill, MotoGP's rights holder agreement with the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme and customer relationships. MotoGP is attributed to the Formula One Group.

On November 13, 2024, the Company announced that it is pursuing a plan to splitoff the Liberty Live Group (the "Liberty Live Split-Off"). Immediately prior to the Liberty Live Split-Off, QuintEvents, certain private assets and cash will be reattributed from the Formula One Group to the Liberty Live Group in exchange for certain private assets attributed to the Liberty Live Group. Any cash consideration will be determined at a future date based on relative valuations of the assets that are being reattributed. The Liberty Live Split-Off will be effected through the redemption of Liberty Live common stock in exchange for common stock of a newly formed company, Liberty Live Holdings, Inc. ("Liberty Live"). The Company will redeem each outstanding share of its Series A, Series B and Series C Liberty Live common stock for one share of the corresponding series of common stock of Liberty Live. As a result of the Liberty Live Split-Off, the Company and Liberty Live will be separate publicly traded companies, and the Company's outstanding common stock, the Liberty Formula One common stock, will no longer be a tracking stock. The Liberty Live Split-Off is subject to various conditions including, among other things, shareholder approval and the receipt of an opinion of tax counsel. The Liberty Live Split-Off is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025 and is intended to be tax-free to stockholders of the Company.

***Revenue.*** Our consolidated revenue increased $353 million and $213 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, driven by increases in Formula 1 and QuintEvents revenue. See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of Formula 1's results of operations.

***Operating income (loss).*** Our consolidated operating income increased $216 million and $52 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily driven by improvements in Formula 1 operating results. See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of Formula 1's results of operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

***Stock-based compensation.***&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Stock-based compensation includes compensation related to options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, performance-based restricted stock units and other stock-based awards granted to officers, employees, nonemployee directors and employees of our subsidiaries. We recorded $10 million and $20 million of stock-based compensation expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. As of June 30, 2025, the total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested Liberty equity awards was approximately $40 million. Such amount will be recognized in our condensed consolidated statements of operations over a weighted average period of approximately 0.8 years.

***Acquisition costs.*** The Company recorded $3 million and $11 million of costs related to corporate acquisitions during the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively, and $14 million and $20 million of costs related to corporate acquisitions during the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

***Adjusted OIBDA.***&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;To provide investors with additional information regarding our financial results, we also disclose Adjusted OIBDA, which is a non-GAAP (as defined below) financial measure. We define Adjusted OIBDA as operating income (loss) plus depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, separately reported litigation settlements, Concorde incentive payments and restructuring, acquisition and impairment charges. Our chief operating decision maker and management team use this measure of performance in conjunction with other measures to evaluate our businesses and make decisions about allocating resources among our businesses. We believe this is an important indicator of the operational strength and performance of our businesses by identifying those items that are not directly a reflection of each business' performance or indicative of ongoing business trends. In addition, this measure allows us to view operating results, perform analytical comparisons and benchmarking between businesses and identify strategies to improve performance. Accordingly, Adjusted OIBDA should be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for, operating income, net income, cash flow provided by operating activities and other measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). The following table provides a reconciliation of Operating income (loss) to Adjusted OIBDA:

---

| &nbsp;&nbsp;Concorde incentive payments |  |  | 50 |  |
| Adjusted OIBDA | $364 | 164 | 433 | 365 |

---

Consolidated Adjusted OIBDA increased $200 million and $68 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to increases in Formula 1's Adjusted OIBDA. See "Results of Operations—Businesses" below for a more complete discussion of Formula 1's results of operations.

***Interest expense.*** Consolidated interest expense decreased $3 million and $10 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in the average amount of debt outstanding and a decrease in the interest rate on Formula 1's Senior Loan Facilities (as defined in note 8 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements).

***Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments, net.*** Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on financial instruments, net are comprised of changes in the fair value of the following:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Three months ended**  | **Three months ended**  | **Six months ended**  | **Six months ended**  |
|  | **June 30,**  | **June 30,**  | **June 30,**  | **June 30,**  |

| Other | 4 |  | (3) | 7 |
|  | $(129) | 87 | (64) | 66 |

---

Changes in unrealized gains (losses) on debt measured at fair value are due to market factors primarily driven by changes in the fair value of the underlying shares into which the debt is exchangeable. Changes in unrealized gains (losses) on foreign currency forward contracts are driven by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Realized and unrealized gains (losses) on Live Nation Forward Contracts (as defined in note 8 to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements) are primarily driven by changes in the market price of Live Nation common stock. Changes in realized and unrealized gains (losses) on interest rate swaps are driven by changes in the fair value of Formula 1's interest rate swaps and the realized gains (losses) on Formula 1's interest rate swaps.

***Other, net.*** Other, net income increased $44 million and $59 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to increases in interest income and gains on the disposition of assets.

***Income taxes.*** During the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, we had earnings from continuing operations before income taxes of $228 million and $204 million, respectively, and income tax expense of $24 million and income tax benefit of $5 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, we had earnings from continuing operations before income taxes of $193 million and $200 million, respectively, and income tax expense of $35 million and $38 million, respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized tax expense less than the expected federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to certain unrealized gains that are not taxable, partially offset by earnings in foreign jurisdictions taxed at rates higher than the 21% U.S. federal rate. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recognized a tax benefit, rather than an expense at the expected federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to certain unrealized gains that are not taxable. For the three months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized tax expense less than the expected federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized tax expense less than the expected federal tax rate of 21% primarily due to tax benefits related to stock-based compensation and the effect of state income taxes.

***Net earnings (loss) from continuing operations.*** We had net earnings from continuing operations of $204 million and $209 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, and $158 million and $162 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024, respectively. The changes were the result of the above-described fluctuations in our revenue, expenses and other gains and losses.

**Material Changes in Financial Condition**

As of June 30, 2025, substantially all of our cash and cash equivalents were invested in U.S. Treasury securities, other government securities or government guaranteed funds, AAA rated money market funds and other highly rated financial and corporate debt instruments.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

The following are potential sources of liquidity: available cash balances, cash generated by the operating activities of our subsidiaries (to the extent such cash exceeds the working capital needs of the subsidiaries and is not otherwise restricted), proceeds from net asset sales, monetization of our public investment portfolio (including derivatives), debt borrowings and equity issuances, available borrowing capacity under a margin loan and dividend and interest receipts.

Liberty does not have a debt rating.

As of June 30, 2025, Liberty's cash and cash equivalents were as follows:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
|  | <br>**Cash and Cash**<br>**Equivalents** |
|  | **amounts in millions** |
| Formula One Group |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Formula 1 | $1775 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Corporate and other | 1365 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total Formula One Group | $3140 |
| Liberty Live Group |  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;Corporate and other | $308 |
| &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Total Liberty Live Group | $308 |

---

Cash held by Formula 1 is accessible by Liberty, except when a restricted payment ("RP") test imposed by the first lien term loan and the revolving credit facility at Formula 1 is not met. Pursuant to the RP test, Liberty does not have unlimited access to Formula 1's cash when the leverage ratio (defined as net debt divided by covenant earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization for the trailing twelve months) exceeds a certain threshold. During the six months ended June 30, 2025, Formula 1 distributed $131 million to Liberty and the RP test was met, pro forma for such distribution. If distributions are made in the future, the RP test, pro forma for such distributions, would have to be met. As of June 30, 2025, Liberty had $400 million available under Liberty's margin loan secured by shares of Live Nation. Liberty believes that it currently has appropriate legal structures in place to repatriate foreign cash as tax efficiently as possible and meet the business needs of the Company.

The Company and Formula 1 are in compliance with their debt covenants as of June 30, 2025.

Liberty's primary use of cash during the six months ended June 30, 2025 (excluding cash used by Formula 1) was a $131 million extension payment related to the MotoGP acquisition, which is accounted for as prepaid purchase consideration.

During the six months ended June 30, 2025, Formula 1's primary use of cash was $55 million of capital expenditures, funded by cash from operations.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

The projected uses of Liberty's cash (excluding Formula 1's uses of cash) are the investment in existing or new businesses, including the MotoGP acquisition, debt service and the potential buyback of common stock under the approved share buyback program. Liberty expects to fund its projected uses of cash with cash on hand, borrowing capacity under margin loans and outstanding or new debt instruments, or distributions from operating subsidiaries. Liberty may be required to make net payments of income tax liabilities to settle items under discussion with tax authorities.

Formula 1's uses of cash are expected to be distributions to Liberty to help fund the MotoGP acquisition, capital expenditures and debt service payments. Liberty expects Formula 1 to fund its projected uses of cash with cash on hand and cash provided by operations.

We believe that the available sources of liquidity are sufficient to cover our projected future uses of cash.

**Results of Operations—Businesses**

***Formula 1.*** Formula 1 is a global motorsports business that holds exclusive commercial rights with respect to the F1 Championship, an annual, approximately nine-month long, motor race-based competition in which teams compete for the Constructors' Championship and drivers compete for the Drivers' Championship. The F1 Championship takes place on various circuits throughout the world. Formula 1 derives its primary revenue from the commercial exploitation and development of the F1 Championship through a combination of race promotion, media rights and sponsorship arrangements. A significant majority of the race promotion, media rights and sponsorship contracts specify payments in advance and annual increases in the fees payable over the course of the contracts. The 2025 F1 Championship calendar is scheduled to consist of the same 24 Events that were held in 2024, except in a different order, in part due to the timing of Ramadan. During the three months ended June 30, 2025, there was one additional Event held and a different mix of Events held, as compared to the three months ended June 20, 2024. The same 11 Events were held during both of the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, except in a different order.

Following the acquisition of QuintEvents, Formula 1's results include intergroup revenue that is eliminated in consolidation.

Formula 1's operating results were as follows:

*Primary Formula 1 revenue* is derived from the commercial exploitation and development of the F1 Championship through a combination of race promotion fees (earned from granting the rights to host, stage and promote each Event on the F1 Championship calendar, fees from certain race promoters to license additional commercial rights from Formula 1 to secure Formula 2, Formula 3 and F1 Academy races at their Events, technical service fees from promoters to support

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

the origination of program footage and ticketing revenue from Formula 1's direct promotion of the Las Vegas Grand Prix), media rights fees (earned from licensing the right to broadcast Events and Formula 2 and Formula 3 races on television and other platforms, F1 TV subscriptions and other related services, the origination of program footage, footage from Formula 1's archives and the licensing of radio broadcast and other ancillary media rights) and sponsorship fees (earned from the sale of F1 Championship and Event-related advertising and sponsorship rights and the servicing of such rights, rights to advertise on Formula 1's digital platforms and at non-Championship related events).

Primary Formula 1 revenue increased $293 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to the impact of recognizing Event-specific revenue and season-based revenue from one additional Event, the different mix of Events and contractual increases in fees. Primary Formula 1 revenue increased $149 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to contractual increases in fees across all primary revenue streams. The increases during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, were also driven by increases in media rights revenue, due to continued growth in F1 TV subscription revenue and the recognition of one-time revenue associated with the release of the F1 movie, and increases in sponsorship revenue, due to revenue from new sponsors. Race promotion revenue also increased during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, driven by new sprint race fees and growth in F1 Academy and other support race fees.

*Other Formula 1 revenue* is generated from miscellaneous and ancillary sources primarily related to the sale of tickets to the Formula 1 Paddock Club hospitality program (the "Paddock Club") at most Events, facilitating the shipment of cars and equipment to and from Events outside of Europe, the sale of hospitality and experiences at the Las Vegas Grand Prix, the operation of the Formula 2, Formula 3 and F1 Academy series, other licensing opportunities, various television production activities and other ancillary operations.

Other Formula 1 revenue increased $62 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to higher hospitality and experiences revenue, driven by Paddock Club revenue from one additional Event, the different mix of Events and underlying growth at recurring Events. The different number and mix of Events also led to higher revenue from experiences, travel, technical and freight services and the three months ended June 30, 2025 also benefitted from growth in licensing income. Other Formula 1 revenue increased $56 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily driven by higher freight income due to the different routes flown and the pass through of increased freight costs, higher hospitality from growing attendance at Paddock Clubs and growth in licensing income.

Cost of Formula 1 revenue increased $142 million and $98 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year.

Team payments are recognized on a pro-rata basis across the Events of the F1 Championship calendar. The increases in team payments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, were attributable to the pro rata recognition of expected increased team payments.

Other costs of Formula 1 revenue are largely variable in nature and relate to both primary and other Formula 1 revenue. On an annual basis, the largest components of other costs of Formula 1 revenue are costs related to promoting, organizing

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

and delivering the Las Vegas Grand Prix, hospitality costs, which are principally related to catering and other aspects of the production and delivery of hospitality offerings at the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the Paddock Club at other Events, and costs incurred in the provision and sale of freight, travel and logistical services. Other costs of Formula 1 revenue also include sponsorship and digital product sales' commissions, circuit rights' fees payable under various agreements with race promoters to acquire certain commercial rights at Events, including the right to sell advertising, hospitality and support race opportunities, annual Federation Internationale de l'Automobile ("FIA") regulatory fees, Formula 2 and Formula 3 cars, parts and maintenance services, costs related to the F1 Academy series, television production and post-production services, advertising production services and digital and social media activities.

Other costs increased $64 million during the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, primarily due to the different number and mix of Events, which impacted costs of the Paddock Club, technical, travel and freight services and race promotion costs as well as the recognition of certain commissions and partner servicing costs. Higher costs were incurred servicing the growing F1 TV subscriber base and at Grand Prix Plaza in Las Vegas following the launch of new activations and an increase in other events, compared to the corresponding period in the prior year. Other costs increased $69 million during the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to the corresponding period in the prior year, due to higher freight costs associated with the freight movements required as a result of the different order of Events and cost inflation, higher commissions and partner servicing costs linked to underlying revenue growth, higher Paddock Club costs due to increased attendance, race promotion costs to service new sponsors and higher hosting and other costs of delivering F1 TV to a growing subscriber base. The increase during the six months ended June 30, 2025 was also driven by increased costs from technical activities, travel and new activations and a larger number of other events at Grand Prix Plaza.

*Selling, general and administrative expenses* include personnel costs, legal, professional and other advisory fees, bad debt expense, rental expense, information technology costs, insurance premiums, maintenance and utility costs and other general office administration costs.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $12 million and $29 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, due to higher personnel costs and higher marketing costs including, in the six month period, the costs associated with the 75<sup>th</sup> season launch event.

*Concorde incentive payments* represent one-time fees paid to the teams upon signing the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement. Such payments are excluded from Adjusted OIBDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025.

*Depreciation and amortization* includes depreciation of property and equipment and amortization of intangible assets. Depreciation and amortization decreased $7 million and $16 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2025, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in amortization expense related to certain intangible assets acquired in the acquisition of Formula 1 by Liberty.

**Item 3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk**

We are exposed to market risk in the normal course of business due to our ongoing investing and financial activities and the conduct of operations. Market risk refers to the risk of loss arising from adverse changes in stock prices and interest rates. The risk of loss can be assessed from the perspective of adverse changes in fair values, cash flows and future earnings. We have established policies, procedures and internal processes governing our management of market risks and the use of financial instruments to manage our exposure to such risks.

We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of our borrowing and investment activities, which include investments in fixed and floating rate debt instruments and borrowings used to maintain liquidity and to fund business operations. The nature and amount of our long-term and short-term debt are expected to vary as a result of future requirements, market conditions and other factors. We manage our exposure to interest rates by maintaining what we believe is an appropriate mix of fixed and variable rate debt. We believe this best protects us from interest rate risk. We have achieved this mix by (i) issuing fixed rate debt that we believe has a low stated interest rate and significant term to

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

maturity, (ii) issuing variable rate debt with appropriate maturities and interest rates and (iii) entering into interest rate swap arrangements when we deem appropriate. As of June 30, 2025, our debt is comprised of the following amounts:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|  | **Variable rate debt** | **Variable rate debt** | **Fixed rate debt** | **Fixed rate debt** |
|  | **Principal**<br>**amount** | **Weighted avg**<br>**interest rate** | **Principal**<br>**amount** | **Weighted avg**<br>**interest rate** |
|  | **dollar amounts in millions** | **dollar amounts in millions** | **dollar amounts in millions** | **dollar amounts in millions** |
| Formula One Group | $172 | 6.2% | $2725 | 4.4% |
| Liberty Live Group | NA | NA | $1150 | 2.4% |

---

The Company is exposed to changes in stock prices primarily as a result of our significant holdings in publicly traded securities. We continually monitor changes in stock markets, in general, and changes in the stock prices of our holdings, specifically. We believe that changes in stock prices can be expected to vary as a result of general market conditions, technological changes, specific industry changes and other factors. We periodically use equity collars and other financial instruments to manage market risk associated with certain investment positions. These instruments are recorded at fair value based on option pricing models and other appropriate methods.

Additionally, our stock in Live Nation (an equity method affiliate), a publicly traded security, is not reflected at fair value in our balance sheet. This security is also subject to market risk that is not directly reflected in our condensed consolidated statement of operations, and had the market price of such security been 10% lower at June 30, 2025 the aggregate value of such security would have been $1,054 million lower.

**Item 4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Controls and Procedures**

In accordance with Rules 13a-15 and 15d-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of management, including its chief executive officer and principal accounting and financial officer (the "Executives"), of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, the Executives concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2025 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in its reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms.

There has been no change in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended June 30, 2025 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.

**PART II—OTHER INFORMATION**

**Item 1. Legal Proceedings**

Our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 includes "Legal Proceedings" under Item 3 of Part I. There have been no material changes to the legal proceedings described in our Form 10-K.

**Item 1A. Risk Factors** 

Except as discussed below there have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part 1, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 (the "2024 Form 10-K") and Part II, Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, which Risk Factors are incorporated by reference into this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

**Risks Relating to the Formula One Group** 

***There could be a decline in the popularity of Formula 1 or MotoGP, which may have a material adverse effect on Formula 1's or Dorna Sports, S.L.'s ("MotoGP") ability to exploit its commercial rights to the FIA Formula One World Championship (the "F1 Championship") or the FIM Grand Prix World Championship (the "MotoGP Championship"), respectively.***

The success of Formula 1 and MotoGP's businesses and their ability to profitably renew or enter into beneficial new commercial arrangements, including race promotion, media rights and sponsorship contracts, is largely dependent upon the continued popularity of the F1 Championship and the MotoGP Championship, respectively. Similarly, the sponsorship and other revenue generation of the teams that compete in the F1 Championship (the "Formula 1 Teams") and teams that compete in the MotoGP Championship (the "MotoGP Teams" and, together with the Formula 1 Teams, the "Teams") are dependent on such continued popularity and, if such revenue decreased, it may impact their ability or willingness to continue participating in the F1 Championship or MotoGP Championship, respectively. The popularity of Formula 1 and MotoGP globally and in particular countries and regions may be influenced by competition from any rival championship and other forms of motor sport or similar entertainment that challenge Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective positions and reputation as the pinnacle of their respective world motor sports, the continued participation of the leading Teams, the perceived entertainment value of the F1 Championship and the MotoGP Championship, changes in societal views on automobiles and motorcycles more generally and an unfavorable economic climate that may discourage fans from attending Formula 1 events ("Formula 1 Events") and/or MotoGP events ("MotoGP Events" and, together with Formula 1 Events, "Events") or make it more difficult to expand into new markets, all of which could change rapidly and cannot be predicted. See "*-Rival motor sport events could be established involving existing Teams or different teams, or existing Teams may divert their resources to participate in another motor sport event, which could lead to fewer Teams and race circuits being involved in Formula 1 or MotoGP, or a Team's primary engagement in motor sport being in another motor sport event, either of which could diminish the competitive position of Formula 1 and/or MotoGP.*" Formula 1 and MotoGP also face stiff competition from other live sporting events, and with sporting events delivered over television networks, radio, the Internet and online services, mobile applications and other alternative sources, as well as from the availability of alternative forms of entertainment and leisure activities. Formula 1 and MotoGP each compete for attendance, viewership and advertising with a wide range of alternatives. As a result of the large number of options available, Formula 1 and MotoGP face strong competition for the attention of sports fans.

Further, a scandal that undermines the credibility of either sport, such as a race fixing scandal or accident could also adversely affect the popularity of Formula 1 or MotoGP. In particular regions, the popularity of the F1 Championship and the MotoGP Championship varies depending upon the participation and performance of drivers/riders and Teams from that region. There is no assurance that Formula 1 or MotoGP will be able to compete effectively with other forms of sports or entertainment or that either the F1 Championship or the MotoGP Championship will maintain its popularity either globally or in any particular country or region. Any decrease in the continued popularity of the F1 Championship or the MotoGP Championship may affect Formula 1's or MotoGP's ability to enter into or renew race promotion, media rights, advertising, sponsorship or other commercial agreements, which may materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

respective businesses, financial conditions, results of operations and prospects, and in turn materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Termination of the 100-Year Agreements could cause Formula 1 to discontinue its operations.***

Under the 100-Year Agreements, entered into by Formula 1 and the *Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile* (the "FIA") in 2001, Formula 1 was granted an exclusive license with respect to all of the commercial rights to the F1 Championship, including its trademarks. This license, which took effect on January 1, 2011 and will expire on December 31, 2110, maintains Formula 1's exclusive commercial rights to the F1 Championship which Formula 1 held under previous agreements with the FIA, among other things. The license under the 100-Year Agreements is critical to the ongoing operation of Formula 1's business. Formula 1's rights under these agreements can be terminated by the FIA if Formula 1 materially breaches the relevant agreements (with certain of such breaches subject to certain cure rights), undergoes an unpermitted change of control, interferes with certain of the FIA's rights under the 100-Year Agreements or experiences certain insolvency events. If Formula 1's license under the 100-Year Agreements was terminated in accordance with its terms or the FIA or another person successfully challenged the validity of that license (or the 100-Year Agreements as a whole), it could cause Formula 1 to discontinue its operations, lead to the termination of substantially all of Formula 1's commercial contracts, prevent Formula 1 from exploiting the commercial rights to the F1 Championship and require Formula 1 to discontinue use of the F1 Championship trademarks and other intellectual property rights, which would materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Termination of the FIM Agreement could cause MotoGP to discontinue its operations.***

Under an agreement (the "FIM Agreement") between MotoGP and the *Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme* (the "FIM"), MotoGP was granted the exclusive right to commercially manage, promote and organize the MotoGP Championship, and all of the FIM's rights with respect to certain intellectual property related thereto. The FIM Agreement, which will expire on December 31, 2060, sets forth MotoGP's exclusive commercial rights to the MotoGP Championship. The rights granted under the FIM Agreements are critical to the ongoing operation of MotoGP's business. MotoGP's rights under the FIM Agreement can be terminated by the FIM if MotoGP materially breaches the relevant agreements (with certain of such breaches subject to certain cure rights) or undergoes an unpermitted change of control. If the FIM Agreement were terminated in accordance with its terms or the FIM or another person successfully challenged the validity of the rights granted thereunder (or the FIM Agreement as a whole), it could cause MotoGP to discontinue its operations, lead to the termination of substantially all of MotoGP's commercial contracts, prevent MotoGP from exploiting the commercial rights to the MotoGP Championship and require MotoGP to discontinue use of the MotoGP logo and other intellectual property rights, which would materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Formula 1 Teams may, in certain circumstances, terminate their existing commitment to participate in the F1 Championship or breach their obligations and withdraw.***

Formula 1's ability to effectively stage the F1 Championship depends on the ongoing involvement of its participants. Pursuant to the 2021 Concorde Agreement, each of the current ten Formula 1 Teams have committed to participate in the F1 Championship until December 31, 2025, subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain events. In March 2025, Formula 1 and the ten Formula 1 Teams, as well as the Cadillac F1 Team, which will enter the F1 Championship as the 11th Formula 1 Team in the 2026 season, entered into the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement, which addresses certain commercial arrangements between Formula 1 and the Formula 1 Teams for the F1 Championship seasons covering the period 2026 to 2030, and expires on December 31, 2030. Additionally, Formula 1 is in discussions with the FIA and the Formula 1 Teams to enter into a 2026 Concorde Governance Agreement for the same period. Formula 1 cannot provide assurance that the FIA and Formula 1 Teams will enter into the 2026 Concorde Governance Agreement on terms acceptable to Formula 1 or at all, that any of the Formula 1 Teams will commit to participate in the F1 Championship beyond 2030 on terms acceptable to Formula 1 or at all, or that the FIA will enter into a subsequent Concorde Governance Agreement beyond 2030 on terms acceptable to Formula 1 or at all. If any of the Formula 1 Teams cease to participate in the F1 Championship, Formula 1 may attempt to encourage new entrants to the F1 Championship; however, there is no assurance Formula 1 will be successful in attracting new entrants. If such departing Formula 1 Teams were not replaced, it would result in fewer competitors in the F1 Championship as compared to recent seasons, which may impact the perceived entertainment value of the Formula 1 Events.

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

Even if a Formula 1 Team has committed to participate in the F1 Championship it may be able to exercise termination rights under the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement in certain circumstances and withdraw. For additional information regarding the 2021 Concorde Commercial Agreement, see "*Item 1. Business-Formula 1*-*Key Commercial Agreements*-*Key Provisions*" in the 2024 Form 10-K.

A lesser number of Formula 1 Teams may reduce the popularity of Formula 1, which may affect its ability to enter into or renew race promotion, media rights, advertising, sponsorship or other commercial agreements, which may materially and adversely affect Formula 1's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Termination of the IRTA Agreements could cause MotoGP to discontinue its operations, and a reduction in the number of MotoGP Teams could reduce the appeal of the MotoGP Championship.***

MotoGP's ability to effectively stage the MotoGP Championship currently depends on the ongoing involvement of its participants. Pursuant to the principal agreement with IRTA SA ("IRTA"), dated January 25, 2021 (the "Principal IRTA Agreement", collectively with other agreements between MotoGP and IRTA, the "IRTA Agreements"), IRTA, representing all of the MotoGP Teams, agreed to provide MotoGP with services through the end of the 2026 season, subject to earlier termination upon the occurrence of certain events. MotoGP cannot provide assurance that IRTA or any of the MotoGP Teams will commit to participate in the MotoGP Championship beyond the 2026 season, or that IRTA will enter into a subsequent agreement beyond 2026. In addition, any negotiation for an extension to the terms of the Principal IRTA Agreement or the other IRTA Agreements could result in less favorable terms to MotoGP.

Pursuant to the Principal IRTA Agreement, IRTA is responsible for contracting with the MotoGP Teams and each MotoGP Team's respective riders on an annual basis. Failure on the part of IRTA to satisfy such obligations may reduce the popularity of MotoGP, affecting MotoGP's ability to enter into or renew race promotion, media rights, advertising, sponsorship or other commercial agreements, which may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

A lesser number of teams may reduce the popularity of MotoGP, which may affect its ability to enter into or renew race promotion, media rights, advertising, sponsorship or other commercial agreements, which may materially and adversely affect MotoGP's business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***The FIA may take actions that are not in Formula 1's interest.***

The FIA is the governing body of the F1 Championship and a party to the 100-Year Agreements, the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement and the 2021 Concorde Governance Agreement. In its capacity as the governing body of the F1 Championship, the FIA must place safety and other sporting concerns over Formula 1's commercial interests. As a result, the FIA may take actions with respect to safety and sporting standards and regulations that conflict with Formula 1's interests as the commercial rights holder, including by increasing the cost to F1 Teams of participating in the F1 Championship, diminishing the visual and sonic spectacle of applicable Events, imposing fines on or excluding applicable F1 Teams, cancelling or delaying an applicable Event, withholding approval for the staging of an applicable Event, a new circuit or Formula 1's proposed season calendar or establishing regulations without the support of the F1 Teams. As a party to the 100-Year Agreements and the 2021 Concorde Governance Agreement, the FIA has certain rights, and the exercise or purported exercise of the FIA's rights thereunder may conflict with Formula 1's interests. Any actions taken by the FIA that conflict with Formula 1's interests may materially and adversely impact Formula 1's operations and revenue, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***The FIM may take actions that are not in MotoGP's interest.***

The FIM is the governing body of the MotoGP Championship. In its capacity as the governing body of the MotoGP Championship. The FIM and MotoGP must mutually agree on changes to the MotoGP Championship. As a result, the FIM may not agree to take actions with respect to the MotoGP Championship that MotoGP, as the commercial rights holder of the MotoGP Championship, feels are in the interest of the commercial aspects of the sport, such as changes to regulations

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

to enhance the appeal of the MotoGP Championship to fans. The FIM could also take actions, such as withholding approval for the homologation of a circuit or approval of MotoGP's proposed season calendar. Failure to consent to proposed changes to the MotoGP Championship, other actions by the FIM, may conflict with MotoGP's interests and may materially and adversely impact MotoGP's operations and revenue, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP may be subject to enforcement actions under competition laws.***

As further described in "*Item 1.Business-Regulatory Matters*" in the 2024 Form 10-K, following an investigation by the European Commission (the "EC") in 1999 in relation to Formula 1's compliance with competition laws, Formula 1 modified certain of its business practices and changed the terms of a number of Formula 1's commercial contracts. Following these modifications and changes, the EC issued two comfort letters to Formula 1 in October 2001 stating that Formula 1 was no longer under investigation. Comfort letters are not binding on the EC and if it believes there has been a material change in circumstances, it could take further enforcement action. The EC issued a press release in October 2003 stating that it was satisfied that Formula 1 had complied with the modified practices and terms that had led to its issuing its comfort letters and that it had ended its monitoring of Formula 1's compliance. In adopting practices and concluding commercial contracts (including as to contracts with broadcasters (and the manner in which these rights are offered), contracts with Formula 1 Teams and contracts with promoters), Formula 1 takes into account the modified practices that formed the basis of the EC's comfort letters.

Formula 1 and MotoGP are also required to comply with general European Union ("E.U.") and national competition laws, which require Formula 1 and MotoGP at all times to ensure their business practices and agreements are consistent with the operation of competitive markets. Failure to comply with the relevant laws and rules can give rise to challenges by the EC, national competition regulators and other interested parties. In addition, those laws and rules could cause certain of Formula 1 or MotoGP's commercial contracts to be unenforceable in whole or in part and/or require various terms (including duration, scope and exclusivity) to be modified, and/or Formula 1 or MotoGP could be liable for damages or other sanctions. In August 2024, we received a notification from the Department of Justice, Antitrust Division that an investigation has been opened with respect to Formula 1's conduct concerning the application by Andretti Formula Racing to enter the F1 Championship. Although we are fully cooperating with the investigation, there can be no assurance of the outcome.

Formula 1 and MotoGP have each separately sought to adopt practices and conclude commercial contracts that take into account competition law as it applies to the specific nature of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective sporting and entertainment businesses, Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective roles within those businesses and the roles of the counterparties to Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective commercial contracts. However, given the uncertainty of the law in this area, and the possibility of third parties instigating action, there is a risk of EC investigations, challenges or proceedings against Formula 1 or MotoGP. For example, two Formula 1 Teams made a complaint against Formula 1 to the EC in September 2015 regarding the distribution of the Prize Fund and current sporting governance arrangements. Formula 1 disputed the complaint as being without merit and believed it was a commercial dispute and not one that involved any breach of competition law. Although this particular complaint was withdrawn by the two Formula 1 Teams in early 2018, for the reasons set out above, no assurance can be given that there will not be future EC investigations, challenges or proceedings regarding unasserted matters involving Formula 1 or MotoGP.

Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Formula 1 or MotoGP may be unable to renew, replace or renegotiate on favorable terms one or more of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective race promotion, media rights or sponsorship contracts.***

Formula 1's race promotion, media rights and sponsorship contracts typically have terms of three to seven years, three to five years and three to five years, respectively, but may on occasion be of longer duration. MotoGP's race promotion, media rights and sponsorship agreements typically have terms of three to seven years, one to five years and one to five years, respectively. When these contracts expire, Formula 1 or MotoGP may not be able to renew or replace them with contracts on similar terms or at all. Further, counterparties to Formula 1 or MotoGP contracts may seek to terminate or

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

renegotiate them, and Formula 1 or MotoGP may not be able to replace terminated contracts with contracts on similar terms, or at all, or renegotiate contracts on terms that are as favorable to Formula 1 or MotoGP, respectively. Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective abilities to renew, replace or renegotiate its contracts on similar terms, or at all, is dependent on a number of factors that Formula 1 and/or MotoGP may not be able to control or predict, including the popularity of Formula 1 and MotoGP, the value of live sports rights generally, relevant regulations, economic conditions in the relevant countries and the spending capacity and priorities of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective counterparties. Additionally, many of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective race promotion and media rights contracts are directly or indirectly with, or guaranteed by, governmental bodies or agencies and a change in their spending capacity or priorities could impact Formula 1's or MotoGP's negotiations with them. A failure to renew, replace or renegotiate Formula 1's or MotoGP's existing contracts on similar or improved terms could result in, among other things, the cancellation of an Event, the payments received by Formula 1 or MotoGP decreasing, the term of the contracts being shortened, termination rights being granted to Formula 1's or MotoGP's counterparties and other contractual terms and conditions being introduced that could materially and adversely affect Formula 1's or MotoGP's respective business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective key commercial contracts.***

Future payments under Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective core commercial contracts, including Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective race promotion, media rights and sponsorship contracts are typically made periodically over the course of several years. Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective abilities to generate cash flow is heavily dependent on collecting amounts owed to them under these contracts. A change in the credit quality of one or more of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective counterparties over the term of their contract with Formula 1 or MotoGP may increase the risk of non-payment. Certain of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective counterparties are directly or indirectly governments or agencies thereof, some of which have previously experienced a deterioration in their credit quality. Formula 1 and MotoGP may also generally experience difficulties or be unable to recover payments owed to it by governments or agencies thereof because of their sovereign or semi-sovereign status. Additionally, an appreciation of the U.S. dollar (in the case of Formula 1) or the U.S dollar and/or Euro (in the case of MotoGP) against the functional currencies of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective counterparties increases the risk of non-payment. See "*-Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar and/or the Euro against the functional currencies of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses and Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective counterparties' businesses could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective profitability and the Formula One Group.*" The failure of one or more of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective counterparties to pay outstanding amounts owed to it could materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective cash flows and results of operation, and in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Potential challenges by tax authorities in the jurisdictions in which Formula 1 and MotoGP operate could materially and adversely affect Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective financial results and position and in turn, the Formula One Group.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective taxes are based upon the applicable tax laws and tax rates in effect in the jurisdictions in which they operate and upon the nature of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective business arrangements and activities with and in such jurisdictions. When computing their tax obligations in these jurisdictions, Formula 1 and MotoGP each endeavor to apply national and international tax rules consistently and in accordance with generally accepted interpretations and practice. However, such rules, and their application to Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective businesses, may not be entirely clear in all cases and may be interpreted differently by the applicable tax authorities. There can be no assurance that, upon review of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective positions, the applicable tax authorities will agree with such positions. If a tax authority successfully challenges Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective positions with respect to their business arrangements, intercompany pricing policies, or the taxable presence of subsidiaries in certain jurisdictions, or if Formula 1 or MotoGP lose a material tax dispute in any jurisdiction, then Formula 1 or MotoGP may be exposed to additional tax liabilities and penalties, which may materially and adversely affect their respective financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Changes in tax laws could adversely affect Formula 1, MotoGP and the Formula One Group.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP operate in various jurisdictions and are subject to changes in applicable tax laws, treaties or regulations in those jurisdictions. A material change in the tax laws, treaties or regulations, or their interpretation, of any jurisdiction with which Formula 1 or MotoGP do business, or in which Formula 1 or MotoGP has significant operations, could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP.

For example, during October 2021, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (the "OECD") announced that 136 countries and tax jurisdictions had agreed to implement a new "Two Pillar" approach to international taxation. Numerous countries have now enacted, or are in the process of enacting, new legislation consistent with this approach, which took effect for the first time in 2024. More countries have committed to introduce similar legislation, at different times and in different ways, through their individual agreement to tax treaty changes and through changes to their own domestic tax laws.

The first of the OECD's "pillars" establishes a new taxing right for countries in which a business has a significant economic presence, even though it may not have the degree of physical presence in that country needed to establish a taxing right under existing tax treaties. This new taxing right is subject to several conditions, exclusions and exceptions, and will initially affect only multinational enterprises with global turnover above 20 billion euros.

The second pillar establishes a Global Minimum Tax Rate of 15%, such that multinational enterprises with an effective tax rate in a jurisdiction below this minimum rate will need to pay additional tax, which could be collected by the parent company's tax authorities or by those in other countries, depending on whether and how each country implements the OECD's approach in its tax treaties and domestic tax legislation. In an initial transition period from 2024 to 2026, enterprises are exempt from this additional tax if certain "Safe Harbour" tests are met.

In June 2025, the U.S. reached an understanding with the other G7 members that the U.S. would remove a proposed retaliatory tax from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which was enacted into law on July 4, 2025, in exchange for an exclusion of U.S. parented groups from certain aspects of the second pillar. However, this understanding is non-binding and included only the G7 states. Furthermore, significant details regarding the extent of the exclusion and its implementation remain unknown.

Depending on how the jurisdictions in which Formula 1 and/or MotoGP operate, and those in which Liberty and its subsidiaries are based, choose to implement the OECD's approach in their tax treaties and domestic tax laws, and depending on the future evolution of the OECD's "Two Pillar" approach, Formula 1 and/or MotoGP could be adversely affected due to their income being taxed at higher effective rates.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP may face difficulties expanding into new markets, including as a result of being unable to attract race promoters for new Events.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP have recently staged Events in a number of new markets and intend to explore further opportunities for expansion. Attracting race promoters to the F1 Championship or MotoGP Championship in such markets on terms that are attractive to Formula 1 and MotoGP, respectively, will be largely dependent on the popularity of the Formula 1 and MotoGP brands in such markets and Formula 1's and MotoGP's perceived ability to deliver the benefits that race promoters desire, such as publicity for the host city/region, economic impact or tourism. See "*-There could be a decline in the popularity of Formula 1 or MotoGP, which may have a material adverse effect on Formula 1's or MotoGP's ability to exploit its commercial rights to the FIA Formula One World Championship (the "F1 Championship") or the MotoGP Championship, respectively.*" Additionally, Formula 1 or MotoGP may have difficulties entering into agreements with race promoters that have the necessary resources and experience to obtain all the necessary FIA or FIM, governmental and sporting approvals and successfully stage an Event. Events in new markets also require significant investments in circuit infrastructure and other administrative costs by Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective race promoters which may not be recouped and may generate fees below those received from Events staged in more developed markets.

In addition, under the 2021 Concorde Agreement and the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement, the consent of 70% of the Formula 1 Teams is required if there are more than 24 Formula 1 Events in a season or if there are fewer than eight

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

Formula 1 Events across Europe and North America combined. See "*Item 1. Business-Formula 1*-*Key Commercial Agreements*-*Key Provisions*" in the 2024 Form 10-K. Also, under the 100-Year Agreements as amended by the 2013 Concorde Implementation Agreement, Formula 1 must obtain the FIA's approval to stage more than 25 Formula 1 Events (or beginning in 2031, more than 17 Formula 1 Events unless the FIA and Formula 1 make a new agreement on this point). Under the IRTA Agreements, MotoGP must obtain IRTA's approval to stage more than 22 MotoGP Events. There is no assurance such approvals will be obtained by Formula 1 or MotoGP if sought.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective businesses are subject to laws and regulations including with respect to advertising, media rights and the environment, and changes in and judicial interpretations of such laws and regulations could materially and adversely affect Formula 1, MotoGP and/or the Formula One Group.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective businesses are subject to laws and regulations, including advertising, media rights, environmental and health and safety laws and regulations. Such legal regimes are subject to periodic governmental review, legislative initiatives and judicial interpretations, any of which could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses and their profitability. A substantial part of Formula 1's and MotoGP's, broadcasters' and the Teams' revenue come from sponsorship contracts. If new restrictions or bans on advertising specific products or services that are advertised in Formula 1 or MotoGP are introduced, it may reduce Formula 1's or MotoGP's or the Teams' sponsorship revenue or advertising revenue of Formula 1's or MotoGP's broadcasters, which in turn may reduce the value of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective media rights contracts and impact the Teams' desire to continue participating in Formula 1 or MotoGP. For example, advertising of alcohol is restricted in certain countries where Events are held. Advertising laws could also be introduced preventing the broadcast of images that include a restricted brand, thereby preventing Formula 1 or MotoGP from licensing television rights in an affected country. Additionally, as Formula 1 and/or MotoGP expand into new markets, local customs, practices and cultural sensitivities may require Formula 1, MotoGP and the Teams to restrict advertising of certain products even if not required by law.

Broadcasting laws could be introduced requiring that Events be broadcast only on free-to-air television, which would prevent Formula 1 and/or MotoGP from entering into pay television contracts in the relevant jurisdiction. Additionally, judicial decisions or other governmental action could interfere with the manner in which Formula 1 and/or MotoGP exploit their respective media rights, including in relation to Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective segmentation of such rights among different geographic regions.

Environmental laws could also be introduced placing limits on engine design and Event activities. Motor sport has also been banned in certain countries. For example, Switzerland banned motor sport from 1955 to 2007 following an accident at the 24 Hours of Le Mans that killed spectators and a driver. A ban on motor sport in any country where Formula 1 and/or MotoGP hold an Event could result in a reduction in Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective revenue and as a consequence, may materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, financial condition and prospects, which in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Events beyond Formula 1's or MotoGP's control may cause one or more Events to be cancelled or postponed or prevent Formula 1 or MotoGP from providing an international television feed, each of which could result in the loss of revenue under Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective commercial contracts.***

An Event may have to be postponed or cancelled, or Formula 1 or MotoGP may be unable to provide an international television feed of an Event, due to factors beyond their control, including an inability to transport Formula 1's, MotoGP's and the Teams' equipment to an Event, power failures, natural disasters or extreme weather, geopolitical conditions or international conflicts, parties to Formula 1 or MotoGP race promotion contracts terminating those contracts, embargoes or sanctions, homologation issues, cancellation of large-scale public events by a competent authority due to a security or terrorism risk, or outbreak of disease, which could result in the loss of revenue under Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective commercial contracts. Most recently Formula 1 and MotoGP have had Events cancelled due to severe flooding in the regions where the Events were scheduled to take place, due to circumstances arising from Russia's invasion of Ukraine (in the case of Formula 1) and other political circumstances in the host country (in the case of MotoGP). MotoGP had to cancel the 2024 India Grand Prix as result of not finding a suitable promoter and the 2024 Kazakhstan Grand Prix due to homologation and Promoter performance issues. During the 2020 and 2021 seasons, a number of Events were cancelled and/or replaced due to the COVID-19 pandemic. As a general matter, Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective insurance

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

policies do not cover the cancellation of an Event. Whether a race promoter is required to pay Formula 1 or MotoGP the respective race promotion fees with respect to an Event that is cancelled due to any factor beyond the control of Formula 1 or MotoGP depends on the terms and provisions of the applicable promoter agreement. In addition, Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective broadcast contracts include a provision to reduce the fee payable to Formula 1 or MotoGP if there are fewer than a specified number of Events in a season for reasons other than a force majeure event. The minimum number of Events varies by broadcast contract but is typically between 14 and 16 for Formula 1 Events and 16 and 20 for MotoGP Events. However, if an Event were to be cancelled due to the race promoter failing to meet its obligations under the race promotion contract, then Formula 1 or MotoGP may be entitled to indemnification from the race promoter for any lost media rights revenue. If an Event is not held, cancelled or does not receive international television coverage (for example, as a result of a technical problem), Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective fees under the relevant sponsorship contract are likely to be reduced unless the sponsorship contract allows Formula 1 or MotoGP to substitute another Event for the cancelled Event and Formula 1 or MotoGP does so. If an Event is cancelled, Formula 1 and/or MotoGP will also be required to refund amounts paid under other arrangements, including amounts paid for tickets to the Paddock Club, the principal high end corporate hospitality offering at certain Formula 1 Event weekends or VIP Village, offered at MotoGP Events.

***Accidents during Events may cause losses that are not covered by insurance, disrupt an Event and cause Formula 1 and/or MotoGP reputational damage.***

Racing accidents occur in Formula 1 and MotoGP and their respective support races. Fatal racing accidents have previously occurred at Events and there can be no guarantee that a fatal accident will not occur at a future Event. Fatal accidents, particularly if they involve public spectators, could damage the reputation of Formula 1 and/or MotoGP and decrease their popularity, any of which could materially and adversely affect Formula 1 and/or MotoGP. Accidents can also result in the cancellation of a practice, a qualifying session or a race. Additionally, persons harmed in any accident could seek compensation from Formula 1 or MotoGP. Formula 1, MotoGP and their respective promoters purchase insurance coverage for each Event. Drivers, riders and Teams also purchase their own insurance coverage. However, there can be no assurance that such insurance policies will provide adequate coverage at all times and in all circumstances. If Formula 1 and/or MotoGP are held liable for damages beyond the scope of the insurance coverage available to Formula 1 or MotoGP (including the insurance contract procured by the race promoter to include coverage for Formula 1 or MotoGP), Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, financial condition and results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Terrorist acts during Events may cause Formula 1 and/ or MotoGP damage and losses that are not covered by insurance.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP are high profile sports with global fan bases and Events are attended by a large number of spectators. An Event, like any other major sporting event, could be the target of an actual or threatened terrorist act, either of which could disrupt Formula 1 and/or MotoGP and lead to the cancellation of Events, increase security requirements and result in a decline of spectator attendance at Events. Additionally, persons harmed in any terrorist act may attempt to seek compensation from Formula 1 or MotoGP. The general risk of a terror attack has increased recently in a number of the countries in which Events are held. Formula 1 and MotoGP each purchase a portfolio of annual insurance policies covering the risks of their respective activities, including those undertaken at Events. Individual race promoters of Formula 1 Events purchase insurance policies to protect their Formula 1 Events, including a primary liability policy that protects Formula 1 and other participants in the event of third-party claims, including those for personal injury, equipment and property damage. Race promoters also place coverage to protect Formula 1 and other participants from claims arising from acts of terrorism or an active assailant attack. In addition to the coverage provided by race promoter purchased policies, Formula 1's own policies extend to cover both its broadcast and other equipment, and its employer and third-party liability exposures to acts of terrorism, but not active assailant risks. Individual race promotors of MotoGP Events likewise purchase insurance policies with respect to their MotoGP Events, including all-risk policies to protect MotoGP and other participants in their MotoGP Events. MotoGP also obtains general liability insurance policies covering its business. However, despite the coverage in place, there can be no assurance that these Formula 1, MotoGP and promoter-placed policies will be adequate at all times and in all circumstances. If Formula 1 or MotoGP are held liable for damages beyond the scope of their insurance coverage (their own and that arranged by their respective race promoters) and/or is unable to obtain indemnification from the relevant insurer(s), Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, financial condition and

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

results of operations could be materially and adversely affected, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group

***Rival motor sport events could be established involving existing Teams or different teams, or existing Teams may divert their resources to participate in another motor sport event, which could lead to fewer Teams and race circuits being involved in Formula 1 or MotoGP, or a Team's primary engagement in motor sport being in another motor sport event, either of which could diminish the competitive position of Formula 1 and/or MotoGP.***

In the future, it is possible that a rival motor racing series similar to Formula 1 and/or MotoGP could be established, involving existing Teams and/or different teams or an existing motor sport event could become more popular and become a rival series to Formula 1 and/or MotoGP. Such a rival series could lead to fewer Teams and race circuits in Formula 1 and/or MotoGP, reduce the budget that a Team is willing to spend on its participation in Formula 1 and/or MotoGP, or diminish the competitive position of Formula 1 and/or MotoGP and materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective results of operations and business and, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group. In addition, certain of Formula 1's commercial contracts could be terminated if Formula 1 ceased to be the premier motor racing series for open wheel single-seater cars. Pursuant to the 2021 Concorde Commercial Agreement and the 2026 Concorde Commercial Agreement, each of the Formula 1 Teams have committed to participate in the F1 Championship until December 31, 2025 and December 31, 2030, respectively, and pursuant to the IRTA Agreements, each of the MotoGP Teams have committed to participate in MotoGP until the end of the 2026 MotoGP season. If rival motor racing series are established (or if an existing series develops into a rival series), this may reduce the popularity of Formula 1 and/or MotoGP, leading to a decline in the value of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective commercial contracts, which may materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group. See "*-There could be a decline in the popularity of Formula 1 or MotoGP, which may have a material adverse effect on Formula 1's or MotoGP's ability to exploit its commercial rights to the FIA Formula One World Championship (the "F1 Championship") or the MotoGP Championship, respectively*" and "*-Formula 1 Teams may, in certain circumstances, terminate their existing commitment to participate in the F1 Championship or breach their obligations and withdraw*."

***Changes in consumer viewing habits and the emergence of new content distribution platforms could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses and the Formula One Group.***

The manner in which consumers view televised sporting events is changing rapidly with the emergence of alternative distribution platforms. Digital cable, internet and wireless content providers are continuing to improve technologies, content offerings, user interfaces and business models that allow consumers to access video-on-demand or internet-based tools with interactive capabilities including start, stop and rewind. Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective exclusive commercial rights place no limits on the platforms on which they can operate, including online. However, such developments may affect the profitability or effectiveness of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective existing licensing practices and there is no guarantee that Formula 1 or MotoGP will be successful in adapting their respective licensing practices and/or media platforms as consumer viewing habits change. If either Formula 1 or MotoGP is unsuccessful in adapting its licensing practices and/or media platforms as consumer viewing habits change, Formula 1 or MotoGP's viewership levels (whether on traditional or new platforms) may decrease and/or their respective licensing practices may become less profitable, leading to the possibility of a reduction in the value of their media rights and sponsorship contracts. Any reduction in the value of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective commercial rights and/or contracts may materially and adversely affect their respective revenues, business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects, which in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group. While Formula 1 and MotoGP's monetization of their respective television rights has increased in recent years, there can be no assurance that such increases will continue or that Formula 1 or MotoGP's level of such monetization will be comparable to that of other sporting events.

***If confidential information regarding Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective business arrangements is disclosed or leaked, it could affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's relationships with counterparties and/or Teams and result in less favorable commercial contracts and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses and the Formula One Group.***

The success of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective businesses depend on maintaining good relationships with Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective counterparties (including race promoters, broadcasters and sponsors) and the Teams

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

and entering into race promotion, media rights, sponsorship and other commercial contracts on favorable terms. If confidential information regarding Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective business arrangements with their counterparties and/or the Teams were to be disclosed or leaked, it could harm Formula 1 or MotoGP's relationships with those parties and result in less favorable terms in their respective commercial contracts, including with respect to pricing and adversely affect their respective businesses, results of operation, financial condition and prospects, which in turn could materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP depend on trademarks, copyrights and intellectual property.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP rely on certain trademarks, copyrights and other intellectual property to protect their rights, including their brands, logos and television footage. The existence of complex factual and legal issues may give rise to uncertainty as to the validity or subsistence, scope and enforceability of a particular trademark, copyright or other intellectual property or contractual right in a particular jurisdiction. While historically Formula 1 and MotoGP have been widely transmitted by free-to-air television, which reduced their attractiveness as targets for piracy and other infringement, Formula 1 and MotoGP are increasingly transmitted by pay TV operators, which are greater targets for piracy. Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective intellectual property, and in particular the Formula 1 and MotoGP brands (including the F1 and MotoGP logos) and television footage are potential targets for counterfeiting, piracy and other infringement. New technologies such as the convergence of computing, communication, and entertainment devices, the falling prices of devices incorporating such technologies, increased broadband internet speed and penetration and increased availability and speed of mobile data transmission have made the unauthorized digital pirating and distribution of televised sporting events easier and faster and enforcement of intellectual property rights more challenging. The unauthorized use of intellectual property in the entertainment industry generally continues to be a significant challenge for intellectual property rights holders. If Formula 1 and/or MotoGP are unsuccessful in preventing widespread piracy and illegal live streaming of Events in the future, these activities could result in lost revenue and a reduction in the value of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective media rights, which may materially and adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, results of operation, financial condition and prospects, and in turn may materially and adversely affect the Formula One Group. Further, the availability of certain artificial intelligence tools could facilitate the creation of infringing works based on the unauthorized use of our and our business affiliates' intellectual property. The legal landscape for some new technologies, including some artificial intelligence tools, remains uncertain and development of the law in this area could impact our and our business affiliates' intellectual property.

***Formula 1 and MotoGP's processing, storing, sharing, use, disclosure and protection of personal data could give rise to liabilities as a result of governmental regulation, conflicting legal requirements and policies or differing views of personal privacy rights.***

Formula 1 and MotoGP each receive, transmit and store a large volume of personal data and other user data, primarily in the processing of consumer transactions and managing their employees. The processing, storage, sharing, use, disclosure and protection of this information are governed by the privacy and data security policies maintained by Formula 1 and MotoGP, respectively. Moreover, there are federal, state and international laws regarding privacy and the processing, storage, sharing, use, disclosure and protection of personal data and user data. Specifically, personal data is increasingly subject to legislation and regulations in numerous jurisdictions around the world, which are intended to protect the privacy of personal data that is collected, processed and transmitted in or from the governing jurisdiction. Compliance with these laws and regulations may be onerous and expensive and may be inconsistent from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, further increasing the cost of compliance. For example, the General Data Protection Regulation ("GDPR"), which became effective in 2018, gives consumers in the E.U. additional rights and imposes additional restrictions and penalties on companies for illegal collection and misuse of personal data and restricts transfer of personal data to countries that are deemed not to have adequate protection, such as the U.S. For transfers to the U.S., companies have to rely on standard contractual clauses ("SCCs") or the new Transatlantic Data Privacy Framework ("DPF") to replace the E.U.-U.S. Privacy Shield. Following the United Kingdom's ("U.K.") withdrawal from the E.U., on June 28, 2021, the EC determined that the U.K.'s data protection laws essentially are equivalent to data protection laws in the European Economic Area. As a result, personal data transfers from the E.U. to the U.K. may continue without a new data transfer framework. Although the original adequacy decision was due to expire in June 2025, it has been extended until December 2025 to allow the EC to assess the impact of the U.K.'s new Data (Use and Access) Act 2025. At present, digital activities involving user tracking, such as through cookies and similar technologies, are governed by a fragmented and evolving legal landscape across the

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

E.U., U.K., and U.S. In the U.S., there has been a notable rise in consumer class action lawsuits under state-level wiretapping laws and the federal Video Privacy Protection Act, particularly targeting the unauthorized sharing of user data with third parties. Meanwhile, in the E.U., the timeline for the adoption of the ePrivacy Regulation, which aims to introduce stricter rules on cookies and other tracking technologies, remains uncertain. Other than GDPR and U.K. GDPR, similar stringent data privacy laws have been enacted across a number of countries, including Brazil, China, Japan, South Korea, India, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. There is also an increasing trend of countries restricting cross-border data flows, requiring closer scrutiny on how this may impact Formula 1 and/or MotoGP's ability to collect and transfer personal information

California has enacted the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 ("CCPA"), which, among other things, allows California consumers to request that certain companies disclose the types of personal information collected by such companies. The CCPA became effective on January 1, 2020. In November 2020, California voters approved the California Privacy Rights Act of 2020 ("CPRA"), which amends and expands the CCPA and establishes the California Privacy Protection Agency ("CPPA") to implement and enforce consumer privacy laws. Regulations under the CPRA became effective in March 2023. The CPPA also finalized new regulations in July 2025 that would require certain companies to conduct risk assessment, annual cybersecurity audits and set up notice and opt-out and access procedures for the use of automated decision-making technology. These proposed new requirements could increase Formula 1 and MotoGP's costs of compliance and impact their operations and the products and services they offer. Since the enactment of the CCPA, multiple states have enacted data privacy laws that are currently in effect or will take effect in 2025 and 2026.

In addition to broad consumer privacy laws, states in the U.S. are enacting and may continue to enact sectoral-specific privacy laws focused on health data, data about people under the age of 18, biometric data, the use of algorithms by organizations, and other matters. In addition to the increasing adoption of privacy laws by governments, other platforms where Formula 1 and/or MotoGP operate (including social media platforms) may have separate policies that limit its use of personal information that Formula 1 or MotoGP collect through their operation on such platforms, either now or in the future. Private litigants are also using federal and state laws to pursue litigation related to the use of personal data, video content, chat tools and other communication tools, and trackers commonly used by organizations in the operation of consumer-facing websites and applications. Formula 1's or MotoGP's failure, and/or the failure by the various third party vendors and service providers with which they do business, to comply with applicable privacy policies or federal, state or similar international laws and regulations, or changes in applicable laws and regulations, or changes in the policies of third party platforms where Formula 1 or MotoGP conduct their respective businesses, or any compromise of security that results in the unauthorized release of personal information or other user data could damage their reputation and the reputation of their respective third party vendors and service providers, discourage potential fans, result in fines and/or proceedings by governmental agencies and/or fans and/or result in limits on Formula 1's or MotoGP's use of personal information in the operation of their respective businesses, any one or all of which could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, Formula 1 or MotoGP may not have adequate insurance coverage to compensate for losses.

***The terms of Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective indebtedness may limit its financial and operating flexibility.***

Covenants contained in the agreements governing Formula 1's credit facilities will restrict the ability of its subsidiaries to, among other things:

● incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or be a creditor in respect of financial indebtedness;

● pay dividends, redeem their share capital, purchase capital stock, make investments or other restricted payments;

● make any payment in respect, or on account of, indebtedness owing to Liberty or certain of its affiliates;

● in certain circumstances, make any payment or distribution in respect, or on account of, intra-group debt;

● issue or sell capital stock;

● acquire assets or make investments;

● sell assets (including capital stock of subsidiaries);

● create liens;

● enter into sale and leaseback or finance lease transactions;

● acquire an interest in or invest in any joint venture;

[**Table of Contents**](#Toc)

● enter into transactions with shareholders or affiliates except on arm's length terms for full market value, including in relation to the provision of goods or services;

● enter into any contractual or similar restriction which restricts their ability to pay dividends or other distributions, make intra-group loan repayments, loan repayments or loans;

● effect a consolidation or merger;

● amend material commercial contracts; and

● enter into derivative transactions in respect of exposures which are unconnected to Formula 1's credit facilities.

Covenants contained in the agreements governing MotoGP's credit facilities will restrict the ability of its subsidiaries to, among other things:

● incur or guarantee additional indebtedness;

● pay dividends, redeem their share capital, purchase capital stock, make investments or other restricted payments;

● sell assets (including capital stock of its subsidiaries);

● create liens;

● enter into transactions with affiliates; and

● effect consolidations or mergers.

Formula 1 and/or MotoGP may also be required to repay their respective credit facilities upon the occurrence of certain events. Neither Formula 1 nor MotoGP can give any assurance that they will be able to finance such a repayment. Failure to comply with an obligation to repay such credit facilities would result in an event of default which could materially and adversely affect Formula 1 and/or MotoGP and the Formula One Group.

These restrictive covenants could limit Formula 1 and/or MotoGP's ability to pursue their respective growth plans, restrict Formula 1 and/or MotoGP's flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in their respective businesses and industries and increase Formula 1 and/or MotoGP's vulnerability to adverse economic and industry conditions. Formula 1 and/or MotoGP may enter into additional financing arrangements in the future, which could further restrict Formula 1 and/or MotoGP's flexibility.

***Fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar and/or the Euro against the functional currencies of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective businesses and Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective counterparties' businesses could adversely affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective profitability and the Formula One Group.***

In 2024, a significant proportion of Formula 1 and MotoGP's revenue and costs were denominated in U.S. dollars and the Euro, respectively. Formula 1 and MotoGP also operate in a number of other currencies, most notably the pound sterling There may be a mismatch between the amount of a local currency Formula 1 and/or MotoGP generate in revenue and incur in expenses. Our financial statements translate local currency transactions into U.S. dollars. Formula 1 and MotoGP occasionally use derivatives to hedge their respective exposure to more significant foreign currency risk. There is no assurance that such measures will be successful and fluctuations in the value of the U.S. dollar against Formula 1's functional currency or the U.S. dollar or Euro against MotoGP's functional currencies could affect their profitability. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates have resulted and may continue to result from a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, market volatility as a result of the current political landscape and, in particular, U.S. and international policy changes and uncertainty resulting from such changes. Additionally, most payments Formula 1 and MotoGP receive from their respective counterparties under their respective commercial contracts are denominated in U.S. dollars and the Euro, respectively, while their revenue is typically denominated in other currencies, most notably the Euro or the local currency in the country where the relevant Event is held. An appreciation of the U.S. dollar (in the case of Formula 1) or the U.S. dollar or Euro (in the case of MotoGP), against the functional currencies of Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective counterparties whose revenue is denominated in a currency other than U.S. dollars or Euros, increases the cost of their payments to Formula 1 and MotoGP in their respective functional currencies and the risk that they will not make their payments to Formula 1 or MotoGP or cause them to request Formula 1 or MotoGP enter into a new contract with such counterparty, which could affect Formula 1 or MotoGP's respective profitability and financial position, and in turn could impact the Formula One Group. See "*-Formula 1 and MotoGP are exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by counterparties to Formula 1 and MotoGP's respective key commercial contracts.*"

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) Any amounts incurred on the basis of any basket, test or permission where an element is set by reference to a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA ()"**EBITDA-based basket**") shall (**provided that** such amounts are, at the time of incurrence, duly and properly incurred in accordance with the relevant basket, test or permission) be treated as having been duly and properly incurred without the incurrence of an Event of Default even in the event that such EBITDA-based basket subsequently decreases by virtue of operation of that calculation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) In the event that any amount or transaction meets the criteria of more than one of the carve outs, baskets or exceptions set out in this Agreement, the Company, in its sole discretion, will classify and may from time to time reclassify that amount or transaction to a particular carve out, basket or exception and will only be required to include that amount or transaction in one of those carve outs, baskets or exceptions (and an amount or transaction may at the option of the Company be split between different carve outs, baskets or exceptions).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) Until the date by which such entities are required to accede as Guarantors pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 27.8 (*Conditions Subsequent*), each Material Subsidiary and any other member of the Group required to accede as a Guarantor to satisfy the Percentage Test and (y) from the date of completion of a Permitted Acquisition until the date falling 150 days after completion of such Permitted Acquisition, any entity which becomes a member of the Group pursuant to such Permitted Acquisition and which the Company intends will accede as a Guarantor within 150 days of completion of such Permitted

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Increase Lender entering into the documentation required for it to accede as a party to the Intercreditor Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Agent being satisfied that it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The obligations of each Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several. Failure by a Finance Party to perform its obligations under the Finance Documents does not affect the obligations of any other Party under the Finance Documents. No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The rights of each Finance Party under or in connection with the Finance Documents are separate and independent rights and any debt arising under the Finance Documents to a Finance Party from an Obligor is a separate and independent debt in respect of which a Finance Party shall be entitled to enforce its rights in accordance with paragraph (c) below. The rights of each Finance Party include any debt owing to that Finance Party under the Finance Documents and, for the avoidance of doubt, any part of a Loan or any other amount owed by an Obligor which relates to a Finance Party's participation in a Facility or its role under a Finance Document (including any such amount payable to the Agent on its behalf) is a debt owing to that Finance Party by that Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A Finance Party may, except as specifically provided in the Finance Documents, separately enforce its rights under or in connection with the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5 **Obligors' Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Obligor (other than the Company) by its execution of this Agreement or an Accession Deed irrevocably appoints the Company (even when it involves acting with multi-representation, self-contracting (*autocontratación*) or conflict of interest) to act on its behalf as its agent (and, with respect to each Italian Obligor, as its *mandatario con rappresentanza* for the purposes of Italian law) in relation to the Finance Documents and irrevocably authorises:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Company on its behalf to supply all information concerning itself contemplated by this Agreement to the Finance Parties and to give all notices and instructions (including, in the case of a Borrower, Utilisation Requests) to execute on its behalf any Accession Deed, to make such

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 66 -<br>

------

agreements and to effect the relevant amendments, supplements and variations capable of being given, made or effected by any Obligor notwithstanding that they may affect the Obligor, without further reference to or the consent of that Obligor and, with respect to each Italian Obligor, with specific power and authorisation to execute any contract with itself (*contratto con se stesso*) for the purposes of Article 1395 of the Italian Civil Code and notwithstanding any possible conflict of interest in accordance with Article 1394 of the Italian Civil Code; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each Finance Party to give any notice, demand or other communication to that Obligor pursuant to the Finance Documents to the Company,

and in each case the Obligor shall be bound as though the Obligor, itself had given the notices and instructions (including, without limitation, any Utilisation Requests) or executed or made the agreements or effected the amendments, supplements or variations, or received the relevant notice, demand or other communication.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the Obligors' Agent or given to the Obligors' Agent under any Finance Document on behalf of another Obligor or in connection with any Finance Document and whether occurring before or after such other Obligor became an Obligor, shall be binding for all purposes on that Obligor as if that Obligor had expressly made, given or concurred with it. In the event of any conflict between any notices or other communications of the Obligors' Agent and any other Obligor, those of the Obligors' Agent shall prevail.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) For all purposes of the Finance Documents, including, without limitation, for the purposes of this Clause 2.5 and any other provision in this Agreement and/or any other Finance Document pursuant to which the Company is authorised and/or instructed to, or otherwise may, act on behalf of any other Obligor (whether as agent, representative or in any other capacity) in relation to, and/or as stipulated in, the Finance Documents (or any of them), each Obligor (other than the Company) hereby releases the Company from the restrictions imposed by any restrictions on self-dealings and multi-representation under any applicable law, in each case to the extent legally possible to such Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. **Purpose**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A Borrower (or the Company on behalf of any other Borrower or any person in contemplation of such person becoming an Additional Borrower under a Facility) may utilise a Facility by delivery to the Agent of a duly completed Utilisation Request not later than the Specified Time (**provided that**, for the avoidance of doubt, no Utilisation shall be made if the person on whose behalf such Utilisation was requested is not a Borrower on the relevant Utilisation Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, a Borrower (or the Company on behalf of any other Borrower) may, in respect of the first Utilisation of the Facilities, utilise a Facility by delivery to the Agent of a duly completed Utilisation Request not later than 9.30am (London time) on the date falling three Business Days prior to the proposed Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 **Completion of a Utilisation Request for Loans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Utilisation Request for a Loan is irrevocable and will not be regarded as having been duly completed unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) it identifies the Facility to be utilised;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the currency and amount of the Utilisation comply with Clause 5.3 (*Currency and amount*); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) the proposed Interest Period complies with Clause 15 (*Interest Periods*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Multiple Utilisations may be requested in a Utilisation Request where the proposed Utilisation Date is the Closing Date. Only one Utilisation may be requested in each subsequent Utilisation Request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 **Currency and amount** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The currency specified in a Utilisation Request for Facility B must be EUR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The currency specified in a Utilisation Request for a Revolving Facility must be the Base Currency or an Optional Currency:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) if the currency selected is the Base Currency, an amount at least equal to €500,000 or, if less, the Available Facility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if the currency selected is an Optional Currency pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of Clause 4.3 (*Conditions relating to Optional Currencies*), an

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 73 -<br>

amount at least equal to the equivalent in that currency of €500,000 or, if less, the Available Facility; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if the currency selected is an Optional Currency pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 4.3 (*Conditions relating to Optional Currencies*), the minimum amount specified by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(ii) of Clause 4.3 (*Conditions relating to Optional Currencies*) or, if less, the Available Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The currency specified in a Utilisation Request for an Incremental Facility must be the Base Currency or an Optional Currency and in a minimum amount as each agreed by the Company, the Agent and the relevant Incremental Facility Lenders in respect of that Incremental Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4 **Lenders' participation** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the conditions set out in this Agreement have been met, and subject to Clause 10.2 (*Repayment of Revolving Facility Loans*), each Lender shall make its participation in each Loan available by the Utilisation Date through its Facility Office.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Other than as set out in paragraph (c) below, the amount of each Lender's participation in each Loan will be equal to the proportion borne by its Available Commitment to the Available Facility immediately prior to making the Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a Revolving Facility Utilisation under a Revolving Facility is made to repay Ancillary Outstandings in respect of an Ancillary Facility under that Revolving Facility, each Lender's participation in that Utilisation will be in an amount (as determined by the Agent) which will result as nearly as possible in the aggregate amount of its participation in the Revolving Facility Utilisations then outstanding under that Revolving Facility bearing the same proportion to the aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility Utilisations then outstanding under that Revolving Facility as its Revolving Facility Commitment under that Revolving Facility bears to the Total Revolving Facility Commitments under that Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Agent shall determine the Base Currency Amount of each Revolving Facility Loan which is to be made in an Optional Currency and notify each Lender of the amount, currency and the Base Currency Amount of each Loan, the amount of its participation in that Loan and, if different, the amount of that participation to be made available in accordance with Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*) by the Specified Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 **Limitations on Utilisations** 

The Original Revolving Facility shall not be utilised prior to the Closing Date (but, for the avoidance of doubt, may be utilised on the Closing Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6 **Cancellation of Commitment** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Commitments under a Facility which, at that time, are unutilised shall be immediately cancelled at the end of the Availability Period for that Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 74 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any Original Revolving Facility Commitments will be immediately cancelled at the end of the Closing Certain Funds Period applicable to Facility B if Facility B has not been utilised by then.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.7 **Lender Affiliates and Facility Office** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In respect of a Loan or Loans to a particular Borrower (the "**Designated Loans**") a Lender (a "**Designating Lender**") may at any time and from time to time designate (by written notice to the Agent and the Company):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a substitute Facility Office from which it will make Designated Loans (a "**Substitute Facility Office** "); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) nominate an Affiliate to act as the Lender of Designated Loans (a "**Substitute Affiliate Lender** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A notice to nominate a Substitute Affiliate Lender must be in the form set out in Schedule 18 (*Form of Substitute Affiliate Lender Designation Notice*) (a "**Substitute Affiliate Lender Designation Notice**") and be countersigned by the relevant Substitute Affiliate Lender confirming it will be bound as a Lender under this Agreement and as a Senior Lender (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) under the Intercreditor Agreement in respect of the Designated Loans in respect of which it acts as Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Designating Lender will act as the representative of any Substitute Affiliate Lender it nominates for all administrative purposes under this Agreement. The Obligors, the Agent, the Security Agent and the other Finance Parties will be entitled to deal only with the Designating Lender. In particular the Commitments of the Designating Lender will not be treated as reduced by the introduction of the Substitute Affiliate Lender for voting purposes under this Agreement or the other Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Designating Lender shall remain liable and responsible for the performance of all obligations assumed by a Substitute Facility Office or a Substitute Affiliate Lender on its behalf under this Clause 5.7. The non-performance of a Designating Lender's obligations by its Substitute Facility Office or its Substitute Affiliate Lender following a designation under this Clause 5.7 shall not relieve such Designating Lender from its obligations under this Agreement or the other Finance Documents (but without prejudice to a Designating Lender's rights under Clause 29 (*Changes to the Lenders*)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Save as mentioned in paragraphs (c) and (d) above, a Substitute Affiliate Lender will be treated as a Lender for all purposes under the Finance Documents and having a Commitment equal to the principal amount of all Designated Loans in which it is participating if and for so long as it continues to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) A Designating Lender may revoke its designation of an Affiliate as a Substitute Affiliate Lender by notice in writing to the Agent and the Company **provided that** such notice may only take effect when there are no Designated Loans outstanding to the Substitute Affiliate Lender. Upon such Substitute Affiliate

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 75 -<br>

------

Lender ceasing to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender the Designating Lender will automatically assume (and be deemed to assume without further action by any Party) all rights and obligations previously vested in the Substitute Affiliate Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) If a Designating Lender designates a Substitute Facility Office or Substitute Affiliate Lender in accordance with this Clause 5.7, any Substitute Affiliate Lender shall be treated for the purposes of paragraph (d) of Clause 18.2 (*Tax gross-up*) as having become a Lender on the date that such Substitute Affiliate Lender's designation by the Designating Lender becomes effective.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) For the avoidance of doubt, paragraph (l) of Clause 29.1 (*Assignments and transfers by the Lenders*) shall apply *mutatis mutandis* in respect of the Substitute Facility Office or Substitute Affiliate Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. **Utilisation – Letters of Credit**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) it identifies the Borrower of the Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) it identifies the Issuing Bank which has agreed to issue the Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Unless a later date is agreed by the Issuing Bank and all Lenders under the relevant Revolving Facility, no Letter of Credit may have an Expiry Date later than the Termination Date for the relevant Revolving Facility unless cash cover is agreed to be provided in respect thereof on the Termination Date for the relevant Revolving Facility for the excess duration. At the Termination Date of the relevant Revolving Facility, any outstanding Letters of Credit under the relevant Revolving Facility will be counter-indemnified by a financial institution approved by the Issuing Bank or be the subject of cash cover, in each case, at least in the same amount as the amount outstanding under the relevant Letter of Credit. Any Letter of Credit that is outstanding at the Termination Date of the relevant Revolving Facility and that has not been counter-indemnified by a financial institution approved by the Issuing Bank or which is not the subject of a cash cover shall be automatically cancelled on the Termination Date of the relevant Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.5 **Issue of Letters of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If the conditions set out in this Agreement have been met, the Issuing Bank shall issue the Letter of Credit on the Utilisation Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to Clause 4.1 (*Initial conditions precedent*), the Issuing Bank will only be obliged to comply with paragraph (a) above in relation to a Letter of Credit other than one to which paragraph (c) below applies, if on the date of the Utilisation Request or Renewal Request and on the proposed Utilisation Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) other than in the case of a Letter of Credit to be renewed in accordance with Clause 6.6 (*Renewal of a Letter of Credit*):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) no Event of Default is continuing or would result from the proposed Utilisation; and

**provided that** immediately upon the expiry of the Closing Certain Funds Period or the Post-Closing Certain Funds Period as applicable, all such rights, remedies and entitlements shall be available to the Issuing Bank notwithstanding that they may not have been used or been available for use during the Closing Certain Funds Period or the Post-Closing Certain Funds Period as applicable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The amount of each Lender's participation in each Letter of Credit will be equal to the proportion borne by its Available Commitment to the Available Facility (in each case in relation to the relevant Revolving Facility) immediately prior to the issue of the Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Agent shall determine the amount of each Letter of Credit and shall notify the Issuing Bank and each Lender under the relevant Revolving Facility of the details of the requested Letter of Credit and its participation in that Letter of Credit by the Specified Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Issuing Bank has no duty to enquire of any person whether or not any of the conditions set out in paragraphs (b) or (c) above have been met. The Issuing Bank may assume that those conditions have been met unless it is expressly notified to the contrary by the Agent. The Issuing Bank will have no liability to any person for issuing a Letter of Credit based on such assumption.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Issuing Bank is solely responsible for the form of the Letter of Credit that it issues. The Agent has no duty to monitor the form of that document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Subject to paragraph (i) of Clause 32.9 (*Rights and discretions*), each of the Issuing Bank and the Agent shall provide the other with any information reasonably requested by the other that relates to a Letter of Credit and its issue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) Unless otherwise agreed, the Issuing Bank may issue a Letter of Credit in the form of a SWIFT message or other form of communication customary in the relevant market but has no obligation to do so.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.6 **Renewal of a Letter of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) may request that any Letter of Credit issued on behalf of that Borrower be renewed by delivery to the Agent of a Renewal Request in substantially similar form to a Utilisation Request for a Letter of Credit by the Specified Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Finance Parties shall treat any Renewal Request in the same way as a Utilisation Request for a Letter of Credit except that the conditions set out in paragraph (f) of Clause 6.3 (*Completion of a Utilisation Request for Letters of Credit*) shall not apply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The terms of each renewed Letter of Credit shall be the same as those of the relevant Letter of Credit immediately prior to its renewal, except that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) its amount may be less than the amount of the Letter of Credit immediately prior to its renewal; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 79 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) its Term shall start on the date which was the Expiry Date of the Letter of Credit immediately prior to its renewal and shall end on the proposed Expiry Date specified in the Renewal Request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Subject to paragraph (e) below, if the conditions set out in this Agreement have been met, the Issuing Bank shall amend and re-issue any Letter of Credit pursuant to a Renewal Request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Where a new Letter of Credit is to be issued to replace by way of renewal an existing Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank is not required to issue that new Letter of Credit until the Letter of Credit being replaced has been returned to the Issuing Bank or the Issuing Bank is satisfied either that it will be returned to it or otherwise that no liability can arise under it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.7 **Reduction of a Letter of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, on the proposed Utilisation Date of a Letter of Credit, any Lender under a Revolving Facility is a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) that Lender has failed to provide cash collateral to the Issuing Bank in accordance with Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Borrower of that proposed Letter of Credit has not exercised its right to provide cash cover to the Issuing Bank in accordance with paragraph (g) of Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*),

the Issuing Bank may reduce the amount of that Letter of Credit by an amount equal to the amount of the participation of that Non-Acceptable L/C Lender in respect of that Letter of Credit and that Non-Acceptable L/C Lender shall be deemed not to have any participation (or obligation to indemnify the Issuing Bank) in respect of that Letter of Credit for the purposes of the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Issuing Bank shall notify the Agent and the Company of each reduction made pursuant to this Clause 6.7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Clause 6.7 shall not affect the participation of each other Lender in that Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.8 **Revaluation of Letters of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If any Letters of Credit are denominated in an Optional Currency, the Agent shall within ten Business Days after the end of each of the Company's Financial Years, recalculate the Base Currency Amount of each Letter of Credit by notionally converting into the Base Currency the outstanding amount of that Letter of Credit on the basis of the Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange on the date of calculation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall, if requested by the Agent within five Business Days of any calculation under paragraph (a) above, ensure that within three Business Days sufficient Revolving Facility Utilisations under a Revolving Facility are prepaid

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 80 -<br>

------

to prevent the Base Currency Amount of the Revolving Facility Utilisations under that Revolving Facility exceeding the Total Revolving Facility Commitments of that Revolving Facility (after deducting the total Ancillary Commitments under that Revolving Facility) following any adjustment to a Base Currency Amount under paragraph (a) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6.9 **Appointment of Issuing Banks** 

Any Lender which has agreed to the Company's request to be an Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall become an Issuing Bank for the purposes of this Agreement upon notifying the Agent and the Company that it has so agreed to be an Issuing Bank and on making that notification that Lender shall become bound by the terms of this Agreement as an Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. **Letters of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.1 **Immediately payable** 

If a Letter of Credit or any amount outstanding under a Letter of Credit is expressed to be immediately payable, the Borrower that requested (or on behalf of which the Company requested) the issue of that Letter of Credit shall repay or prepay that amount immediately.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.2 **Claims under a Letter of Credit** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally authorises the Issuing Bank to pay any claim made or purported to be made under a Letter of Credit requested by it (or requested by the Company on its behalf) and which appears on its face to be in order (in this Clause 7, a "**claim** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Borrower shall immediately on demand pay to the Agent for the Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount of any claim.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Borrower acknowledges that the Issuing Bank:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) is not obliged to carry out any investigation or seek any confirmation from any other person before paying a claim; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) deals in documents only and will not be concerned with the legality of a claim or any underlying transaction or any available set-off, counterclaim or other defence of any person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The obligations of a Borrower under this Clause 7 will not be affected by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of any claim or any other document; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any incapacity of, or limitation on the powers of, any person signing a claim or other document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3 **Indemnities** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Borrower shall immediately on demand indemnify the Issuing Bank against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the Issuing Bank (otherwise than by reason of the Issuing Bank's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit requested by (or on behalf of) that Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Lender shall (according to its L/C Proportion) immediately on demand indemnify the Issuing Bank against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the Issuing Bank (otherwise than by reason of the Issuing Bank's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (unless the Issuing Bank has been reimbursed by an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Borrower which requested (or on behalf of which the Company requested) a Letter of Credit shall immediately on demand reimburse any Lender for any payment it makes to the Issuing Bank under this Clause 7.3 in respect of that Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The obligations of each Lender or Borrower under this Clause 7.3 are continuing obligations and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by that Lender or Borrower in respect of any Letter of Credit, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If a Borrower has provided cash cover in respect of a Lender's participation in a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall seek reimbursement from that cash cover before making a demand of that Lender under paragraph (b) above. Any recovery made by an Issuing Bank pursuant to that cash cover will reduce that Lender's liability under paragraph (b) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The obligations of any Lender or Borrower under this Clause 7.3 will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 7.3, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 7.3 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any other person) including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor, any beneficiary under a Letter of Credit or any other person;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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, any beneficiary under a Letter of Credit 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;

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor, any beneficiary under a Letter of Credit or any other person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) any amendment (however fundamental) or replacement of a Finance Document, any Letter of Credit or any other document or security;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vii) any insolvency or similar proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.4 **Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, at any time, a Lender under a Revolving Facility is a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender, the Issuing Bank may, by notice to that Lender, request that Lender to pay and that Lender shall pay, on or prior to the date falling three Business Days after the request by the Issuing Bank, an amount equal to that Lender's L/C Proportion of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the outstanding amount of a Letter of Credit; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of a proposed Letter of Credit, the amount of that proposed Letter of Credit,

and in the currency of that Letter of Credit to an interest-bearing account held in the name of that Lender with the Issuing Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Non-Acceptable L/C Lender to whom a request has been made in accordance with paragraph (a) above shall enter into a security document or other form of collateral arrangement over the account, in form and substance satisfactory to the Issuing Bank, as collateral for any amounts due and payable under this Agreement by that Lender to the Issuing Bank in respect of that Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Subject to paragraph (f) below, withdrawals from such an account may only be made to pay the Issuing Bank amounts due and payable to the Issuing Bank under this Agreement by the Non-Acceptable L/C Lender in respect of that Letter of Credit until no amount is or may be outstanding under that Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Lender under a Revolving Facility shall notify the Agent and the Company:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) on the date of this Agreement or on any later date on which it becomes such a Lender in accordance with Clause 2.2 (*Incremental Facility*), Clause 2.3 (*Increase*) or Clause 29 (*Changes to the Lenders*) whether it is a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 83 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) as soon as practicable upon becoming aware of the same, that it has become a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender,

and an indication in Schedule 1 (*The Original Parties*), in a Transfer Certificate, an Assignment Agreement or in an Increase Confirmation or an Incremental Facility Notice to that effect will constitute a notice under paragraph (i) above to the Agent and, upon delivery in accordance with Clause 29.6 (*Copy of Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement, Increase Confirmation or Incremental Facility Notice to the Company*), to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any notice received by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall constitute notice to the Issuing Bank of that Lender's status and the Agent shall, upon receiving each such notice, promptly notify the Issuing Bank of that Lender's status as specified in that notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding paragraph (c) above, a Lender which has provided cash collateral in accordance with this Clause 7.4 may, by notice to the Issuing Bank, request that an amount equal to the amount provided by it as collateral in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit (together with any accrued interest) be returned to it:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to the extent that such cash collateral has not been applied in satisfaction of any amount due and payable under this Agreement by that Lender to the Issuing Bank in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) it ceases to be a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) its obligations in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit are transferred to a New Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) an Increase Lender has agreed to undertake that Lender's obligations in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if no amount is due and payable by that Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit,

and the Issuing Bank shall pay that amount to the Lender within three Business Days of that Lender's request (and shall co-operate with the Lender in order to procure that the relevant security or collateral arrangement is released and discharged).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) To the extent that a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender fails to provide cash collateral (or notifies the Issuing Bank that it will not provide cash collateral) in accordance with this Clause 7.4 in respect of a proposed Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Company (with a copy to the Agent) and the Borrower of that proposed Letter of Credit may, at any time before the proposed Utilisation Date of that Letter of Credit, provide cash cover to an account with the Issuing Bank in an amount equal to that Lender's L/C Proportion of the amount of that proposed Letter of Credit.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.5 **Requirement for cash cover from Borrower** 

If:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender fails to provide cash collateral (or notifies the Issuing Bank that it will not provide cash collateral) in accordance with Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*) in respect of a Letter of Credit that has been issued;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Issuing Bank notifies the Company (with a copy to the Agent) that it requires the Borrower of the relevant Letter of Credit to provide cash cover to an account with the Issuing Bank in an amount equal to that Lender's L/C Proportion of the outstanding amount of that Letter of Credit; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) that Borrower has not already provided such cash cover which is continuing to stand as collateral,

then that Borrower shall provide such cash cover within three Business Days of the notice referred to in paragraph (b) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.6 **Regulation and consequences of cash cover provided by Borrower** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any cash cover provided by a Borrower pursuant to Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*) or Clause 7.5 (*Requirement for cash cover from Borrower*) may be funded out of a Revolving Facility Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (c) of Clause 1.2 (*Construction*), the relevant Borrower may request that an amount equal to the cash cover (together with any accrued interest) provided by it pursuant to Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*) or Clause 7.5 (*Requirement for cash cover from Borrower*) be returned to it:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to the extent that such cash cover has not been applied in satisfaction of any amount due and payable under this Agreement by that Borrower to the Issuing Bank in respect of a Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the relevant Lender ceases to be a Non-Acceptable L/C Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the relevant Lender's obligations in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit are transferred to a New Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) an Increase Lender has agreed to undertake the relevant Lender's obligations in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if no amount is due and payable by the relevant Lender in respect of the relevant Letter of Credit,

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) and the Issuing Bank shall pay that amount to that Borrower within three Business Days of that Borrower's request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) To the extent that a Borrower has provided cash cover pursuant to Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*) or Clause 7.5 (*Requirement for cash cover from Borrower*), the relevant Lender's L/C Proportion in respect of that Letter of Credit will remain (but that Lender's obligations in relation to that Letter of Credit may be satisfied in accordance with paragraph (c)(ii) of Clause 1.2 (*Construction*)). However, the relevant Borrower's obligation to pay any Letter of Credit fee in relation to the relevant Letter of Credit to the Agent (for the account of that Lender) in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 17.5 (*Fees payable in respect of Letters of Credit*) will be reduced proportionately as from the date on which it provides that cash cover (and for so long as the relevant amount of cash cover continues to stand as collateral).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The relevant Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Agent of the extent to which a Borrower provides cash cover pursuant to Clause 7.4 (*Cash collateral by Non-Acceptable L/C Lender and Borrower's option to provide cash cover*) or Clause 7.5 (*Requirement for cash cover from Borrower*) and of any change in the amount of cash cover so provided.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.7 **Rights of contribution** 

No Obligor will be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity from any Finance Party in respect of any payment it may make under this Clause 7.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. **Optional Currencies** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.1 **Selection of currency** 

A Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) shall select the currency of a Revolving Facility Utilisation or an Incremental Term Facility Loan in the relevant Utilisation Request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 **Unavailability of a currency** 

If before the Specified Time on any Quotation Day:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) a Lender notifies the Agent that the Optional Currency requested is not readily available to it in the amount required; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) a Lender notifies the Agent that compliance with its obligation to participate in a Loan in the proposed Optional Currency would contravene a law or regulation applicable to it,

the Agent will give notice to the relevant Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) to that effect by the Specified Time on that day. In this event, any Lender that gives notice pursuant to this Clause 8.2 will be required to participate in the Loan in the Base Currency (in an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount, or in respect of a Rollover Loan, an amount equal to that Lender's proportion of the Base Currency Amount of the Rollover Loan that is due to be made) and its

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 86 -<br>

------

participation will be treated as a separate Loan denominated in the Base Currency during that Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 **Agent's calculations** 

Each Lender's participation in a Loan will be determined in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 5.4 (*Lenders' participation*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **Ancillary Facilities**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(F) the proposed Ancillary Commitment, the maximum amount of the Ancillary Facility and, in the case of a Multi-account Overdraft, its Designated Gross Amount and its Designated Net Amount; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Agent shall promptly notify the Ancillary Lender and the other Lenders of the establishment of an Ancillary Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Subject to compliance with paragraph (b) above:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Lender concerned will become an Ancillary Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Ancillary Facility will be available,

with effect from the date agreed by the Company and the Ancillary Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.3 **Terms of Ancillary Facilities** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Except as provided below, the terms of any Ancillary Facility will be those agreed by the Ancillary Lender and the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Those terms:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) must be based upon normal commercial terms at that time (except as varied by this Agreement);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) may allow only Borrowers or Affiliates of Borrowers to use the Ancillary Facility;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) may not allow the Ancillary Outstandings to exceed the Ancillary Commitment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) may not allow a Lender's Ancillary Commitment under a Revolving Facility to exceed that Lender's Available Commitment relating to that Revolving Facility (before taking into account the effect of the Ancillary Facility on that Available Commitment);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) must require that the Ancillary Commitment under a Revolving Facility is reduced to zero, and that all Ancillary Outstandings under that Revolving Facility are repaid not later than the Termination Date applicable to that Revolving Facility (or such earlier date as the Revolving Facility Commitment of that Revolving Facility of the relevant Ancillary Lender (or its Affiliate) is reduced to zero); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) may allow for the Ancillary Facility to be made available on a certain funds basis for such period and on such terms as the Company and the Ancillary Lender shall agree and paragraphs (a) and (b) of Clause

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 88 -<br>

------

4.5 (*Utilisations during the Closing Certain Funds Period*) and Clause 4.6 (*Utilisations during the Post-Closing Certain Funds Period*) shall apply *mutatis mutandis* in respect of such Ancillary Facility and such Ancillary Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (i) Clause 38.3 (*Day count convention and interest calculation*) which shall not prevail for the purposes of calculating fees, interest or commission relating to an Ancillary Facility, (ii) an Ancillary Facility comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents shall prevail to the extent required to permit the netting of balances on those accounts and (iii) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document, in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Clause 17.6 (*Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.4 **Repayment of Ancillary Facility** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) An Ancillary Facility shall cease to be available on the Termination Date applicable to the relevant Revolving Facility or such earlier date on which its expiry date occurs or on which it is cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If an Ancillary Facility expires in accordance with its terms the Ancillary Commitment of the Ancillary Lender shall be reduced to zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No Ancillary Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any Ancillary Outstandings prior to the expiry date of the relevant Ancillary Facility unless:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) required to reduce the Gross Outstandings of a Multi-account Overdraft to or towards an amount equal to its Net Outstandings;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Total Revolving Facility Commitments of a Revolving Facility have been cancelled in full or all outstanding Utilisations under that Revolving Facility have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement ; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for the Ancillary Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in its Ancillary Facility; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) both:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Available Commitments relating to a Revolving Facility; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the notice of the demand given by the Ancillary Lender,

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 89 -<br>

------

would not prevent the relevant Borrower funding the repayment of those Ancillary Outstandings in full by way of Revolving Facility Utilisation under that Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Revolving Facility Utilisation is made to repay Ancillary Outstandings in full, the relevant Ancillary Commitment shall be reduced to zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.5 **Limitation on Ancillary Outstandings** 

Each Borrower shall procure that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Ancillary Commitment applicable to that Ancillary Facility; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in relation to a Multi-account Overdraft:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Ancillary Outstandings shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount applicable to that Multi-account Overdraft; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Gross Outstandings shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Multi-account Overdraft.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.6 **Adjustment for Ancillary Facilities upon acceleration** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In this Clause 9.6:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) "**Revolving Outstandings**" means, in relation to a Lender under a Revolving Facility, the aggregate of the equivalent in euro of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) its participation in each Revolving Facility Utilisation under that Revolving Facility then outstanding (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as a Lender under that Revolving Facility); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the Lender is also an Ancillary Lender under that Revolving Facility, the Ancillary Outstandings in respect of Ancillary Facilities under that Revolving Facility provided by that Ancillary Lender (or by its Affiliate) (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it (or to its Affiliate) as an Ancillary Lender in respect of the Ancillary Facility under that Revolving Facility); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) "**Total Revolving Outstandings**" means, in relation to a Revolving Facility, the aggregate of all Revolving Outstandings under that Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If a notice is served under Clause 28.5 (*Acceleration*) (other than a notice declaring Utilisations to be due on demand), each Lender and each Ancillary Lender shall (subject to paragraph (g) below) promptly adjust (by making or receiving (as the case may be) corresponding transfers of rights and obligations under the Finance Documents relating to Revolving Outstandings) their claims in respect of amounts outstanding to them under the relevant Revolving Facility

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 90 -<br>

------

and each Ancillary Facility under the relevant Revolving Facility to the extent necessary to ensure that after such transfers the Revolving Outstandings of each Lender under the relevant Revolving Facility bear the same proportion to the Total Revolving Outstandings under the relevant Revolving Facility as such Lender's Revolving Facility Commitment under the relevant Revolving Facility bears to the Total Revolving Facility Commitments of the relevant Revolving Facility, each as at the date the notice is served under Clause 28.5 (*Acceleration*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility under a Revolving Facility is a contingent liability and that contingent liability becomes an actual liability or is reduced to zero after the original adjustment is made under paragraph (b) above, then each Lender and Ancillary Lender under that Revolving Facility will make a further adjustment (by making or receiving (as the case may be) corresponding transfers of rights and obligations under the Finance Documents relating to Revolving Outstandings under that Revolving Facility to the extent necessary) to put themselves in the position they would have been in had the original adjustment been determined by reference to the actual liability or, as the case may be, zero liability and not the contingent liability.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any transfer of rights and obligations relating to Revolving Outstandings under a Revolving Facility made pursuant to this Clause 9.6 shall be made for a purchase price in cash, payable at the time of transfer, in an amount equal to those Revolving Outstandings under that Revolving Facility (less any accrued interest, fees and commission to which the transferor will remain entitled to receive notwithstanding that transfer, pursuant to Clause 29.9 (*Pro rata interest settlement*)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Prior to the application of the provisions of paragraph (b) above, an Ancillary Lender that has provided a Multi-account Overdraft shall set-off any Available Credit Balance on any account comprised in that Multi-account Overdraft.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) All calculations to be made pursuant to this Clause 9.6 shall be made by the Agent based upon information provided to it by the Lenders and Ancillary Lenders and the Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) This Clause 9.6 shall not oblige any Lender under a Revolving Facility to accept the transfer of a claim relating to an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility under that Revolving Facility which is not denominated (pursuant to the relevant Finance Document) in euro.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.7 **Information** 

Each Borrower (or the Company on behalf of each Borrower) and each Ancillary Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Agent, supply the Agent with any information relating to the operation of an Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Outstandings) as the Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Each Borrower and the Company consents to all such information being released to the Agent and the other Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.8 **Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Lender under a Revolving Facility may become an Ancillary Lender under that Revolving Facility. In such case, the Lender and its Affiliate shall be treated as a single Lender whose Revolving Facility Commitment under that Revolving Facility is the amount set out opposite the relevant Lender's name in Part 2 of Schedule 1 (*The Original Parties*) and/or the amount of any Revolving Facility Commitment transferred to or assumed by that Lender under this Agreement, to the extent (in each case) not cancelled, reduced or transferred by it under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Lender in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) of Clause 9.2 (*Availability*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) An Affiliate of a Lender which becomes an Ancillary Lender shall accede to the Intercreditor Agreement as an Ancillary Lender and any person which so accedes to the Intercreditor Agreement shall, at the same time, become a Party as an Ancillary Lender in accordance with clause 21.9 (*Creditor/Agent Accession Undertaking*) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Lender assigns all of its rights and benefits or transfers all of its rights and obligations to a New Lender, its Affiliate shall cease to have any obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on an Ancillary Lender and the relevant Ancillary Lender is an Affiliate of a Lender which is not a party to that document, the relevant Lender shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.9 **Revolving Facility Commitment amounts** 

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Revolving Facility Commitment under a Revolving Facility is not less than:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) its Ancillary Commitment in respect of that Revolving Facility; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the Ancillary Commitment in respect of that Revolving Facility of its Affiliate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.10 **Affiliates of Borrowers** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Borrower (which is itself a member of the Group) may, with the approval of the relevant Ancillary Lender, become a borrower with respect to an Ancillary Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall specify the relevant Affiliate of a Borrower in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) of Clause 9.2 (*Availability*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any Borrower ceases to be a Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 31.3 (*Resignation of a Borrower*), its Affiliates shall cease to have

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 92 -<br>

------

any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document unless they are any Affiliates of other Borrowers.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an Ancillary Facility and the relevant Borrower is an Affiliate of a Borrower which is not a party to that document, the relevant Borrower shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Any reference in this Agreement or any other Finance Document to a Borrower being under no obligations (whether actual or contingent) as a Borrower under such Finance Document shall be construed to include a reference to any Affiliate of a Borrower being under no obligations under any Finance Document or Ancillary Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) For the avoidance of doubt, an Affiliate of a Borrower with respect to an Ancillary Facility shall not constitute a Borrower for the purposes of Clause 41 (*Amendments and Waivers*) and the terms of Clause 31.2 (*Additional Borrowers*) shall not apply to that Affiliate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9.11 **Amendments and Waivers – Ancillary Facilities** 

No amendment or waiver of a term of any Ancillary Facility shall require the consent of any Finance Party other than the relevant Ancillary Lender unless such amendment or waiver itself relates to or gives rise to a matter which would require an amendment of or under this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under this Clause 9). In such a case, Clause 41 (*Amendments and Waivers*) will apply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **Repayment** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 **Repayment of Facility B Loans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall repay, or procure the repayment of, the aggregate outstanding Facility B Loans in full on the Termination Date in respect thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Borrowers may not reborrow any part of a Term Facility which is repaid.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 **Repayment of Revolving Facility Loans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Borrower which has drawn a Revolving Facility Loan shall repay that Loan on the last day of its Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without prejudice to each Borrower's obligation under paragraph (a) above, if in relation to a Revolving Facility:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) one or more Revolving Facility Loans are to be made available to a Borrower:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) on the same day that a maturing Revolving Facility Loan under that Revolving Facility is due to be repaid by that Borrower;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) in the same currency as the maturing Revolving Facility Loan (unless it arose as a result of the operation of Clause 8.2 (*Unavailability of a currency*)); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Revolving Facility Loan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the proportion borne by each Lender's participation in the maturing Revolving Facility Loan to the amount of that maturing Revolving Facility Loan is the same as the proportion borne by that Lender's participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans under that Revolving Facility to the aggregate amount of those new Revolving Facility Loans under that Revolving Facility,

the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Loans shall, unless the relevant Borrower or the Company notifies the Agent to the contrary in the relevant Utilisation Request, be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Revolving Facility Loan so that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Loan exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Loans:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the relevant Borrower will only be required to make a payment under Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*) in an amount in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) each Lender's participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender's participation (if any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Loan and that Lender will not be required to make a payment under Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*) in respect of its participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Loan is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Loans:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) the relevant Borrower will not be required to make a payment under Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) each Lender will be required to make a payment under Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*) in respect of its participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Loans exceeds that Lender's participation (if any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Loan and the remainder of that Lender's participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans shall be treated as

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Revolving Facility Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the Termination Date in relation to the relevant Revolving Facility and will be treated as separate Revolving Facility Loans (the "**Separate Loans**") denominated in the currency in which the relevant participations are outstanding.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Loan by giving not less than three Business Days' prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this paragraph (d) to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Interest in respect of a Separate Loan will accrue for successive Interest Periods selected by the Borrower by the time and date specified by the Agent (acting reasonably) and will be payable by that Borrower to the Agent (for the account of that Defaulting Lender) on the last day of each Interest Period of that Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The terms of this Agreement relating to Revolving Facility Loans generally shall continue to apply to Separate Loans other than to the extent inconsistent with paragraphs (c) to (e) above, in which case those paragraphs shall prevail in respect of any Separate Loan.

An Incremental Facility Borrower under each Incremental Facility shall repay each Incremental Facility Loan borrowed by it under that Incremental Term Facility in the amounts and on the dates agreed between the Borrower and the relevant Lenders thereof in accordance with Clause 2.2 (*Incremental Facility*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. **Illegality, Voluntary Prepayment and Cancellation** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.1 **Illegality** 

If after the date of this Agreement (or, if later, the date on which the relevant Lender becomes a Party) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in any Utilisation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) that Lender, shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) upon the Agent notifying the Company, each Available Commitment of that Lender will be immediately cancelled; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) to the extent that the participation of that Lender has not been transferred pursuant to Clause 41.7 (*Replacement of Lender*), each Borrower shall repay that Lender's participation in the Utilisations made to that Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period for each Utilisation occurring after the Agent has

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) that Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) upon the Agent notifying the Company, the Issuing Bank shall not be obliged to issue any Letter of Credit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Company shall procure that the relevant Borrower shall use its best endeavours to procure the release of each Letter of Credit issued by that Issuing Bank and outstanding at such time or provide cash cover in the amount of the Letter of Credit for that Issuing Bank; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) unless any other Lender is or has become an Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, any Revolving Facility shall cease to be available for the issue of Letters of Credit unless such Letters of Credit are provided by an Ancillary Lender under an Ancillary Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.6 **Right of cancellation and repayment in relation to a single Lender or Issuing Bank** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If:

A Lender may, if it gives the Agent notice within five Business Days after being informed of any proposed prepayment or any Facility B Loan under Clause 12.2 (*Partial prepayment – Excess cashflow*), elect to waive all (but not part) of its share of the prepayment under Clause 12.2 (*Partial prepayment – Excess cashflow*) of that Facility B Loan (the "**Waived Amount**") in which case such Waived Amount shall be applied in prepayment of the Facilities and Loans as the Company may elect in accordance with this Agreement (other than, for so long as any principal amount remains outstanding

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 103 -<br>

------

under any Facility other than Facility B, against the participations in Facility B of the declining Lenders) or retained by the Group for general corporate purposes to the extent that the Lenders have refused prepayment of such Waived Amount.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.9 **Effect of Repayment and Prepayment on Commitments** 

If all or part of any Lender's participation in a Utilisation under a Facility is repaid or prepaid and is not available for redrawing (other than by operation of Clause 4.2 (*Further conditions precedent*)), an amount of that Lender's Commitment (equal to the amount of the participation which is repaid or prepaid) in respect of that Facility will be deemed to be cancelled on the date of repayment or prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.10 **Application of prepayments** 

Any prepayment of a Utilisation (other than a prepayment pursuant to Clause 11.1 (*Illegality*), Clause 11.6 (*Right of cancellation and repayment in relation to a single Lender or Issuing Bank*) or Clause 12.1 (*Exit*)) shall be applied *pro rata* to each Lender's participation in that Utilisation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.11 **Prepayment restrictions** 

If, and to the extent that, at any time, any prepayment (other than a prepayment under Clause 11.1 (*Illegality*) or Clause 12.1 (*Exit*)) would be unlawful (including, without limitation, with respect to financial assistance, corporate benefits restrictions, restrictions on upstreaming of cash to enable a prepayment to be made or give rise to a breach of any fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors or officers (or in other circumstances where they are under a material risk of personal liability) of the relevant members of the Group), then there shall be no obligation to make that prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.12 **Prepayment and Tax** 

If, and to the extent that, at any time, any prepayment or making funds available to enable a prepayment (in each case other than a prepayment under Clause 12.1 (*Exit*) or Clause 11.1 (*Illegality*)) to be made, would result in Tax or other cost being incurred and payable by a member of the Group in excess of 5 per cent. of the amount to be prepaid, then there shall be no obligation to make that prepayment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.13 **Reasonable endeavours** 

The Company shall ensure that all members of the Group will use their reasonable endeavours to overcome any restrictions in Clause 13.11 (*Prepayment restrictions*) or Clause 13.12 (*Prepayment and Tax*) and/or minimise any costs of a prepayment and/or (to the extent it would not be detrimental to the financial liquidity of the Group or give rise to any issues referred to in Clauses 13.11 (*Prepayment restrictions*) or 13.12 (*Prepayment and Tax*)) make the relevant prepayment using the other available cash resources of the Group. If at any time those restrictions in Clause 13.11 (*Prepayment restrictions*) or Clause 13.12 (*Prepayment and Tax*) are removed or costs reduced below the level specified in Clause 13.12 (*Prepayment and Tax*), any relevant proceeds will be applied in prepayment of the Facilities (as contemplated in Clause 12.3 (*Application of mandatory prepayments and cancellations*)) at the end of the next Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 104 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.14 **Consent of Majority Lenders** 

Mandatory prepayments will only be required to the extent not otherwise agreed by the Majority Lenders except in relation to a mandatory prepayment under Clause 12.1 (*Exit*) or Clause 11.1 (*Illegality*) and/or any payment obligations that have already arisen.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.15 **Prepayment Fees** 

If any Facility B Loan is refinanced, prepaid or repriced as part of a Repricing Event at any time on or prior to the date which is six months after the Closing Date then, in addition to all other sums required to be paid under this Agreement in connection with such Repricing Event, including all accrued and unpaid interest and Break Costs (if any) on amounts prepaid, the Company shall (within five (5) Business Days of such Repricing Event taking effect) pay (or procure the payment of) to the Agent (for the account of the relevant Lenders under Facility B *pro rata* to their participation in that Facility B Loan at the time of (and subject to) that Repricing Event) a prepayment fee equal to 1 per cent. of the principal amount prepaid, refinanced or repriced to the extent prepaid, refinanced or repriced, **provided that** no such fee shall be payable to a Lender under Facility B if that Lender has consented to, or participated in, that Repricing Event and agreed with the Company that no such fee will be payable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.16 **Maximum number of voluntary prepayments of Compounded Rate Loans** 

No more than eight (8) voluntary prepayments of Compounded Rate Loans under each Facility in each 12-month period will be allowed, unless the Company agrees to pay any administrative costs reasonably incurred by the Agent related to such additional prepayments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. **Interest** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1 **Calculation of interest – Term Rate Loans** 

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Margin; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the case of a Term Rate Loan, EURIBOR.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.2 **Calculation of interest – Compounded Rate Loans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The rate of interest on each Compounded Rate Loan for any day during an Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Margin; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Compounded Reference Rate for that day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 105 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any day during an Interest Period for a Compounded Rate Loan is not an RFR Banking Day, the rate of interest on that Compounded Rate Loan for that day will be the rate applicable to the immediately preceding RFR Banking Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.3 **Payment of interest** 

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.4 **Default interest** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue (to the extent permitted under any applicable law and/or regulation) on the overdue amount to the fullest extent permitted by law from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is one per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 14.4 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Term Rate Loan and which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be one per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Pursuant to article 317 of the Spanish Commercial Code, default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded (to the extent permitted under any applicable law and/or regulation) with the overdue amount and added to the principal amount due on a daily basis. The unpaid and capitalised default interest will remain immediately due and payable and will, from and including the compounding date, accrue default interest at the default rate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.5 **Sustainability Adjustment** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to this Clause 14.5, the applicable Margin under each Facility shall be the rate per annum specified in the definition of "Margin".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to paragraph (d) below, upon delivery of the Sustainability Report and a Sustainability Compliance Certificate from the Company to the Agent, the

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 106 -<br>

------

Margin for the relevant Financial Year shall be adjusted according to the Sustainability Margin Adjustment Table with effect from the date which follows the delivery of the relevant Sustainability Report and Sustainability Compliance Certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Any reduction in Margin pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall be retained by the relevant Borrower and any increase in Margin pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall be added to the interest payable by the relevant Borrower in respect of the relevant Facility to the Agent in accordance with Clause 14.3 (*Payment of interest*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If the Company fails to deliver to the Agent the Sustainability Report and a Sustainability Compliance Certificate within 180 days after the end of each of the Company's fiscal years after the Closing Date, the Group will be deemed to have achieved zero KPI Targets for that Financial Year and, accordingly, the Margin shall increase as set out in the Sustainability Margin Adjustment Table until such time as the Sustainability Report and Sustainability Compliance Certificate are delivered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Subject to paragraph (f) below, failure to achieve one or more of the KPI Targets in any Financial Year or to deliver a Sustainability Report or Sustainability Compliance Certificate shall not result in a Default or Event of Default, **provided that**, failure to deliver a Sustainability Report or Sustainability Compliance Certificate such that the Margin cannot be adjusted will result in the Margin being increased to the highest level of the Sustainability Margin Adjustment Table until such time as the Sustainability Report or Sustainability Compliance Certificate are delivered.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Agreement, if the Company in its sole discretion elects not to agree any KPI Targets in respect of a Financial Year and the Majority Lenders so agree, the provisions of this Clause 14.5 shall not apply, **provided that** the Company must notify the Agent of this election within 90 days after the start of each Financial Year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.6 **Notification of rates of interest** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the relevant Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest relating to a Term Rate Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent shall promptly upon a Compounded Rate Interest Payment being determinable notify:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the relevant Borrower of that Compounded Rate Interest Payment;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) each relevant Lender of the proportion of that Compounded Rate Interest Payment which relates to that Lender's participation in the relevant Compounded Rate Loan; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the relevant Lenders and the relevant Borrower of each applicable rate of interest relating to the determination of that Compounded Rate Interest Payment

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Agent shall promptly notify the relevant Borrower of each Funding Rate relating to a Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) This Clause 14.5 shall not require the Agent to make any notification to any Party on a day which is not a Business Day.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.7 **Confidentiality of Reference Bank Quotations** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Agent and each Borrower agree to keep each Reference Bank Quotation confidential.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent's obligations in this Clause 14.7 relating to quotations provided by the Base Reference Banks are without prejudice to its obligations to make notifications under Clause 14.6 (*Notification of rates of interest*) **provided that** the Agent shall not include the details of any individual quotation provided by a Base Reference Bank as part of any such notification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.8 **Italian Usury Law** 

With respect to any Italian Obligor:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the total remuneration applicable to Loans under this Agreement and any utilisation under any Ancillary Facility (including the relevant component of any applicable fee and expense and, for the avoidance of any doubt, any amount paid under Clause 14.4 (*Default interest*)), advanced to or guaranteed by such Italian Obligor, determined as of the date of execution of this Agreement is considered in good faith by the relevant Italian Obligor to be in compliance with Law No. 108 of 7 March 1996 (as amended, implemented, construed and/or restated from time to time, the "**Italian Usury Law** ");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in any event, the Parties mutually acknowledge that, if, pursuant to a change in law or in the official interpretation of Italian Usury Law, the rate of interest applicable to a Loan or any Ancillary Facility or the default rate of interest at any time during the life of this Agreement is deemed to exceed the maximum rate permitted by Italian Usury Law, then the relevant interest rate or default rate applicable to the Italian Obligor (including in its capacity as Guarantor) shall immediately be reduced to the maximum admissible interest rate pursuant to the Italian Usury Law, for the period during which it is not possible to apply the interest rate as originally agreed in this Agreement and/or in the relevant Ancillary Facility; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the amount of interest on overdue amounts payable by an Italian Obligor under this Agreement shall not be compounded unless in accordance with, and to the extent permitted by, article 1283 of the Italian Civil Code, article 120 of the Italian Banking Law and any relevant implementing regulation, each as amended, supplemented or implemented from time to time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. **Interest Periods** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.1 **Selection of Interest Periods and Terms** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) A Borrower (or the Company on behalf of a Borrower) may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan or (if the Loan is a Term Loan and has already been borrowed) in a Selection Notice.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Selection Notice for a Term Loan is irrevocable and must be delivered to the Agent by the Borrower (or the Company on behalf of a Borrower) to which that Term Loan was made not later than the Specified Time.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a Borrower (or the Company) fails to deliver a Selection Notice to the Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above, the relevant Interest Period will be three Months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Subject to this Clause 15, a Borrower (or the Company) may select an Interest Period of one, two, three or six Months or any other period agreed between the Company and the Agent (on behalf of the Majority Lenders), if less than six Months, or the Company and all the Lenders under the relevant Facility if more than six Months.

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) A Revolving Facility Loan has one Interest Period only.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) No Interest Period for a Compounded Rate Loan shall be longer than six Months.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Agent (acting reasonably) and the Company may also alter the lengths of the Interest Periods to implement any hedging agreement or to facilitate syndication of the Facilities.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Company may also request one week interest periods on no more than three occasions in each Financial Year.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.2 **Non-Business Days** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Other than where paragraph (b) below applies, if an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 109 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If the Loan or Unpaid Sum is a Compounded Rate Loan and there are rules specified as "Business Day Conventions" in the applicable Reference Rate Terms, those rules shall apply to each Interest Period for that Loan or Unpaid Sum.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.3 **Consolidation and division of Term Loans** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if two or more Interest Periods:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) relate to Loans under the same Term Facility which are made to the same Borrower; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) end on the same date,

those Loans will, unless that Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) specifies to the contrary in the Selection Notice for the next Interest Period, be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Facility B Loan or (in the case of any Incremental Term Facility) a single Incremental Term Facility Loan under such Incremental Term Facility (as the case may be) on the last day of the Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to Clause 4.4 (*Maximum number of Utilisations*) and Clause 5.3 (*Currency and amount*), if a Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) requests in a Selection Notice that a Facility B Loan or an Incremental Term Facility Loan be divided into two or more Facility B Loans or Incremental Term Facility Loans (as the case may be), that Loan will, on the last day of its Interest Period, be so divided with amounts specified in that Selection Notice, having an aggregate amount equal to the amount of the relevant Loan immediately before its division.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. **Changes to the Calculation of Interest** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16.1 **Unavailability of Screen Rate** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) *Interpolated Screen Rate* 

If no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for the Interest Period of a Term Rate Loan, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) *Shortened Interest Period* 

If no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the currency of a Term Rate Loan; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Interest Period of a Term Rate Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate,

the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan shall (if it is longer than the applicable Fallback Interest Period) be shortened to the applicable Fallback

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 110 -<br>

------

Interest Period and the applicable EURIBOR for that shortened Interest Period shall be determined pursuant to the relevant definition.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) *Shortened Interest Period and Historical Screen Rate* 

If the Interest Period of a Term Rate Loan is, after giving effect to paragraph (b) above, either the applicable Fallback Interest Period or shorter than the applicable Fallback Interest Period and, in either case, no Screen Rate is available for EURIBOR for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the currency of that Term Rate Loan; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate,

the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Historical Screen Rate for that Term Rate Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) *Shortened Interest Period and Interpolated Historical Screen Rate* 

If paragraph (c) above applies but no Historical Screen Rate is available for the Interest Period of the Term Rate Loan, the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Interpolated Historical Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan (or, if the Interest Period is less than the shortest period published for the applicable rate, the shortest period published for that rate).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) *Base Reference Bank Rate* 

If paragraph (d) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Historical Screen Rate, the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan shall, if it has been shortened pursuant to paragraph (b) above, revert to its previous length and the applicable EURIBOR shall be the Base Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time for the currency of that Term Rate Loan and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Term Rate Loan (or, if the Interest Period is less than the shortest period published for the applicable rate, the shortest period published for that rate).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) *Cost of funds* 

If paragraph (e) above applies but no Base Reference Bank Rate is available for the relevant currency and Interest Period there will be no EURIBOR for that Term Rate Loan and Clause 16.4 (*Cost of funds*) will apply to that Term Rate Loan for that Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16.2 **Calculation of Base Reference Bank Rate** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if EURIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Base Reference Bank Rate but a Base Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time the Base Reference Bank Rate will be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Base Reference Banks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 111 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If at or about noon on the Quotation Day none or only one of the Base Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there will be no Base Reference Bank Rate for the relevant Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16.3 **Market disruption** 

In the case of a Term Rate Loan only, if before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Agent receives notification from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in a Loan exceed 40 per cent. of that Loan) that its cost of funds relating to its participation in that Loan would be in excess of EURIBOR then Clause 16.4 (*Cost of funds*) shall apply to that Loan for the relevant Interest Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16.4 **Cost of funds** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If this Clause 16.4 applies to a Loan for an Interest Period Clause 14.1 (*Calculation of interest – Term Rate Loans*) shall not apply to that Loan for that Interest Period and the rate of interest on each Lender's share of that Loan for that Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the applicable Margin; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender in relation to a Term Rate Loan, as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the date falling one Business Day after the Quotation Day (or, if earlier, on the date falling two Business Days before the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period) to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum its cost of funds relating to its participation in that Loan.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If this Clause 16.4 applies and the Agent or the Company so requires, the Agent and the Company shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the Assignment Agreement, Transfer Certificate, Increase Confirmation or Incremental Facility Notice which it executes on becoming a Party, and for the benefit of the Agent and each Obligor, which of the following categories it falls in, in respect of an advance under a Finance Document to a Spanish Borrower and shall provide the appropriate tax certificates from the relevant tax authorities evidencing this status:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) not a Spanish Qualifying Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) a Spanish Qualifying Lender (other than a Non-Spanish Lender);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) a Non-Spanish Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) a Treaty Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If a New Lender, an Increase Lender or an Incremental Facility Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 18.5 then such New Lender, Increase Lender or Incremental Facility Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment Agreement, a Transfer Certificate, an Increase Confirmation or an Incremental Facility Notice shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 18.5.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Lender becomes aware that it is not, or ceases to be, a Qualifying Lender, or changes the basis on which it will be a Qualifying Lender (including any change in Treaty on which it relies), it shall as soon as is reasonably practicable

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 121 -<br>

------

notify the Agent. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall as soon as is reasonably practicable notify the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) Each Lender shall promptly after becoming a Lender under this Agreement and from time to time thereafter promptly submit any forms and documents and complete any procedural formalities as may be necessary (at any time) for an Obligor to obtain and maintain authorisation (at all times) to make payments under this Agreement without a Tax Deduction or with the minimum possible Tax Deduction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.6 **Stamp taxes** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall pay and, within five Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that such Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document other than (without prejudice to paragraph (a) of Clause 21.2 (*Limitation of liability*)) any stamp duty, registration or other similar Taxes payable in respect of any document pursuant to which any rights and/or obligations under any Finance Document are assigned, novated, sub-participated or transferred by a Finance Party, where such assignment, transfer, sub-participation or novation is not made at the request of an Obligor pursuant to Clause 21.1 (*Mitigation*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Paragraph (a) shall not apply to (i) any voluntary registration made by a Finance Party or (ii) any stamp duty, registration or other similar Taxes payable in respect of any registration or filing of a Finance Document where such registration or filing is not required to maintain, preserve, establish or enforce the rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.7 **VAT** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "**Supplier**") to any other Finance Party (the "**Recipient**") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "**Relevant Party**") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 122 -<br>

------

(at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any reference in this Clause 18.7 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply or, where appropriate, as receiving the supply, under VAT grouping rules provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant European member state) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union, so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or head) of such group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.8 **FATCA Deduction** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition,

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 123 -<br>

------

shall notify the Company and the Agent and the Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18.9 **FATCA Information** 

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) not a FATCA Exempt Party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything and paragraph (a)(iii) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any law or regulation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any fiduciary duty; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any duty of confidentiality.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

determined they have a conflict as between themselves) or (ii) it relates to disputes solely among the Indemnified Persons and not arising out of any act or omission by any member of the Group. Any Indemnified Person may rely on this paragraph (b) subject (if not a Party) to Clause 1.5 (*Third party rights*) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20.3 **Indemnity to the Agent** 

The Company shall (or shall procure that an Obligor (other than the Company) will) promptly indemnify the Agent against:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any cost, loss or liability properly incurred by the Agent (acting reasonably) as a result of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) investigating any event which it reasonably believes is a Default;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) acting or relying on any notice, request or instruction which it reasonably believes to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) instructing lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts as permitted under this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. **Mitigation by the Lenders** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.1 **Mitigation** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Finance Party shall, in consultation with the Company, take all reasonable steps to mitigate any circumstances which arise and which would result in any amount becoming payable under or pursuant to, or cancelled pursuant to, any of Clause 11.1 (*Illegality*) (or, in respect of the Issuing Bank, Clause 11.2 (*Illegality in relation to Issuing Bank*)), Clause 18 (*Tax Gross Up and Indemnities*) or Clause 19 (*Increased Costs*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Paragraph (a) above does not in any way limit the obligations of any Obligor under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21.2 **Limitation of liability** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall (or shall procure that an Obligor (other than the Company) will) promptly indemnify each Finance Party for all costs and expenses reasonably incurred by that Finance Party as a result of steps taken by it under Clause 21.1 (*Mitigation*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) A Finance Party is not obliged to take any steps under Clause 21.1 (*Mitigation*) if, in the opinion of that Finance Party (acting reasonably), to do so might be prejudicial to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. **Costs and Expenses** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.1 **Transaction expenses** 

Subject to Clause 17.7 (*No deal/no fee*), the Company shall within ten Business Days of demand pay (or shall procure payment of the same to) the Agent, the Arrangers and the Issuing Bank the amount of all reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees) up to an agreed cap incurred by any of them in connection with the negotiation, preparation, printing, execution, notarisation and perfection of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) this Agreement and any other documents referred to in this Agreement and the Transaction Security; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any other Finance Documents executed after the date of this Agreement.

The Parties agree that any notarisation costs referred to in this Agreement shall exclude (and therefore the Company will not be obliged to pay) any costs and expenses related to (i) the notarisation of any Assignment Agreement or Transfer Certificate (except regarding the primary syndication, **provided that** the Finance Parties will make their best efforts to limit the number of Assignment Agreements or Transfer Certificates required in connection with primary syndication); (ii) the granting, notarisation and apostille of any powers of attorney granted by any Finance Party (other than the Original Lenders as at the date of this Agreement) for the purposes of notarising any Finance Document and/or executing any Transaction Security Document in Spain; (iii) the services rendered by a service provider appointed as representative of any Finance Party (other than the Original Lenders as at the date of this Agreement) for the purposes of notarising any Finance Document and/or executing any Transaction Security Document in Spain; (iv) obtaining and maintaining a Spanish tax identification number (N.I.F.) of any Finance Party; and/or (v) the issuance of any second or subsequent copy of any Spanish Public Document requested by the Finance Partes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.2 **Amendment costs** 

If (a) an Obligor requests an amendment, waiver or consent or (b) an amendment is required pursuant to Clause 35.10 (*Change of currency*), the Company shall, within ten Business Days of demand, reimburse (or shall procure such reimbursement of) each of the Agent and the Security Agent for the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred (subject to agreed caps) by the Agent and the Security Agent (and, in the case of the Security Agent, by any receiver or delegate) in responding to, evaluating, negotiating or complying with that request or requirement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22.3 **Enforcement and preservation costs** 

The Company shall, within ten Business Days of demand, pay (or shall procure payment of the same to) the Arrangers and each other Secured Party (other than the Security Agent) the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by it in connection with the enforcement of or the preservation of any rights under any Finance Document and the Transaction Security and any proceedings instituted by or against the Security Agent as a consequence of taking or holding the Transaction Security or enforcing these rights.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23. **Guarantee and Indemnity** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.1 **Guarantee and indemnity** 

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by a Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 23 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.2 **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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.3 **Reinstatement** 

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 23 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.4 **Waiver of defences** 

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 23 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 23, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 23 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) 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 Group;

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 132 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, 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;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) 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;

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) any insolvency or similar proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.5 **Guarantor Intent** 

Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 23.4 (*Waiver of defences*) each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.6 **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 Clause 23.

This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 133 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.7 **Appropriations** 

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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any Guarantor's liability under this Clause 23.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.8 **Deferral of Guarantors' rights** 

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise directs, no Guarantor will exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 23:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) to be indemnified by an Obligor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 23.1 (*Guarantee and indemnity*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.

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 Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 35 (*Payment Mechanics*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.9 **Release of Guarantors' right of contribution** 

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, other disposal and/or other transaction (including a Permitted Transaction) of that Retiring Guarantor then on the date such Retiring Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) 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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) 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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.10 **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.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.11 **Guarantee Limitations** 

This guarantee and the obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor under and in connection with the Finance Documents (including, without limitation, this Clause 23):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee being illegal, in breach of law or regulation, or constituting unlawful financial assistance in any relevant jurisdiction concerning the financial assistance by that company for the acquisition of, or subscription for, shares or concerning the protection of shareholders' capital; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) is and shall be subject to Clause 23.12 (*Guarantee Limitations for Luxembourg Guarantors*) to Clause 23.15 (*Excluded Swap Obligations*) (including) and any limitations set out in the Intercreditor Agreement or in an Accession Deed applicable to such Guarantor or the jurisdiction of incorporation of such Guarantor

and any guarantee, indemnity, obligations and liabilities of each Guarantor shall be construed accordingly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.12 **Guarantee Limitations for Luxembourg Guarantors** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Finance Document, the liability of a Luxembourg Guarantor under this Clause 23 together with any similar guarantee or indemnity obligation of that Luxembourg Guarantor under or in connection with any other Finance Document for the obligations of any Obligor, which is not a direct or indirect

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 135 -<br>

Subsidiary of that Luxembourg Guarantor, may not exceed, in aggregate, the Maximum Amount (as defined in paragraph (b) below).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For the purposes of paragraph (a) above, the "**Maximum Amount** ", in relation to a Luxembourg Guarantor, means an amount equal to the aggregate (without double counting) of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) all moneys received by that Luxembourg Guarantor or its direct and indirect Subsidiaries as a borrower under this Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the aggregate amount of any intercompany or shareholder funding (in any form whatsoever) made available to that Luxembourg Guarantor or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries by any other member of the Group which has been directly or indirectly funded by a borrowing under this Agreement; and

(90 per cent.) of the sum of (i) the Luxembourg Guarantor's own funds (capitaux propres) (as referred to in Annex I to the Grand-Ducal Regulation dated 18 December 2015 setting out the form and content of the presentation of the balance sheet and profit and loss account, enforcing the Luxembourg act of 19 December 2002 on the trade and companies register and the accounting and annual accounts of undertakings, as amended) (the Own Funds) and (ii) the Luxembourg Guarantor's debt which is subordinated in right of payment (whether generally or specifically) to any claim of any Finance Party under any of the Finance Documents including, for the avoidance of doubt, any intercompany debt (the "**Subordinated Debt** "), in each case as determined on the basis of the then latest available annual accounts of the Luxembourg Guarantor duly established in accordance with applicable accounting rules, as at the date of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) ninety per cent. (90 per cent.) of the sum of (i) the Own Funds and (ii) the Subordinated Debt, in each case as determined on the basis of the then latest available annual accounts of the Luxembourg Guarantor duly established in accordance with applicable accounting rules), as at the date on which the guarantee under this Clause 23 is called.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Where, for the purpose of the above determinations, (i) no duly established annual accounts are available for the relevant reference period (which will include a situation where, in respect of the determinations to be made above, no final annual accounts have been established in due time in respect of the then most recently ended financial year) or (ii) the relevant annual accounts do not adequately reflect the status of the Subordinated Debt or Own Funds as envisaged above or (iii) the Luxembourg Guarantor has taken corporate or contractual actions having resulted in the increase of its Own Funds or its Subordinated Debt since the close of its last financial year, the relevant

Luxembourg Guarantor shall, as soon as practicably possible (and in any event within 5 (five) Business Days), provide at its option unaudited monthly or quarterly interim accounts (as of the date of the end of the then most recent month or financial quarter) on a consolidated or unconsolidated basis or annual accounts (as applicable) duly established in accordance with applicable accounting rules, pursuant to which the relevant Own Funds and Subordinated Debt amounts will be determined. For the avoidance of doubt, the preceding sentence shall not prevent the Agent from calling the guarantee before such revised accounts are provided and once provided the Agent will promptly adjust the Maximum Amount accordingly. Any costs and expenses incurred by the Agent pursuant to this paragraph (c) (including, but not limited to, the fees, costs and expenses incurred in making the above determination) will be paid in accordance with Clause 17 (*Fees*) of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The above limitation shall not apply to any Transaction Security Document, or any recoveries derived from the enforcement of a Finance Party's rights under or in respect of any Security.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;23.13 **Guarantee Limitations for Spanish Guarantors** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Finance Document, the guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Spanish Obligor expressed to be assumed under this Clause 23 shall be deemed not to be assumed by such Spanish Obligor to the extent that the same would infringe any restriction imposed at any time by the laws of Spain relating to the scope of the obligations to be guaranteed, to the Spanish Obligors and, in particular that would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) article 150 of the Spanish Companies Law in relation to any Spanish Obligor incorporated or organised as a public limited company ()"*sociedad anónima*") under the laws of Spain; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) article 143.2 of the Spanish Companies Law in relation to any Spanish Obligor incorporated or organised as a limited liability company ()"*sociedad limitada*") under the laws of Spain,

or any other applicable financial assistance rules under any relevant jurisdiction (the "**Prohibition**") and the provisions of this Agreement and the other Finance Documents shall be construed accordingly.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For the avoidance of doubt, it is expressly acknowledged that the relevant Spanish Obligors will continue to guarantee all such obligations which, if included, do not constitute a violation of the Prohibition.

**provided that**, in order to comply with the provisions of Italian law in relation to financial assistance (including article 2358 and/or article 2474, as applicable, of the Italian Civil Code), no Italian Guarantor shall be liable as a Guarantor under this Agreement and/or as a security provider under any Transaction Security Document, in relation to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the number of Delayed Races, *multiplied by*;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the budgeted Consolidated EBITDA for the then current Financial Year and (B) the denominator of which is the number of racing meetings which are reasonably contemplated in the relevant budget to take place for the then current Financial Year; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) with respect to Additional Races, deducting from Consolidated EBITDA an amount equivalent to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the number of Additional Races, *multiplied by*;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) a fraction (A) the numerator of which is the Consolidated EBITDA for the Financial Year immediately preceding the then current Financial Year and (B) the denominator of which is the number of racing meetings which took place in the Financial Year immediately preceding the then current Financial Year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27. **General Undertakings** 

The undertakings in this Clause 27 and Schedule 16 (*Incurrence Covenants*) remain in force from the date of this Agreement for so long as any amount is outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.1 **Authorisations** 

Subject to the Reservations and the Perfection Requirements, each Obligor shall comply with and maintain all Authorisations required to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) enable each Obligor to perform its material obligations under the Finance Documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) ensure the legality, validity or enforceability of the Finance Documents to which it is a party subject to the Reservations and the Perfection Requirements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 156 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) enable each Obligor to carry on its business to the extent a failure to do so has, or is reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.2 **Compliance with laws** 

Each Obligor shall, and the Company shall procure that each of its Restricted Subsidiaries will, comply in all respects with all laws to which it may be subject, if failure so to comply has, or is reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.3 **Taxation** 

Each Obligor shall, and the Company shall procure that each of its Restricted Subsidiaries that is a Material Subsidiary will, pay when due (or within any applicable time limit, save in respect of a *bona fide* dispute with regard to any Tax in respect of which proper provision has, if appropriate, been made in the accounts of the relevant member of the Group) all amounts of Taxes imposed upon it or any of its assets, income or profits on any transactions undertaken or entered into by it where failure to do so has, or is reasonably likely to have, a Material Adverse Effect.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.4  ***Pari passu* ranking** 

Subject to any applicable Reservations, each Obligor shall ensure that at all times any unsecured and unsubordinated claims of a Finance Party against it under the Finance Documents rank at least *pari passu* in right and priority of payment with the claims of all its other unsecured and unsubordinated creditors except those creditors whose claims are mandatorily preferred by laws of general application to companies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.5 **Access** 

While a Material Event of Default is continuing, each Obligor shall, and the Company shall ensure that each member of the Group which is its Restricted Subsidiary will, after consultation by the Agent with the Company in good faith as to the scope of any investigation (and the Agent having duly considered any information or explanation provided by the Company or an Obligor in relation to that Material Event of Default), permit the Agent and/or the representatives, delegates, agents, professional advisers and contractors of the Agent (which representatives, delegates, agents, professional advisers and contractors shall be under a confidentiality obligation to the Group) free access at all reasonable business hours and on reasonable notice to inspect and take copies and extracts from the books, accounts and records of each member of the Group to the extent necessary to investigate the Material Event of Default. If the Agent or the Security Agent exercises its rights hereunder, it will use all reasonable endeavours to minimise the scope and nature of the access undertaken and the costs to the Group of that access.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.6 **Anti-corruption law and anti-money laundering** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) No Obligor shall directly or indirectly use the proceeds of the Facilities for any purpose which would breach the Bribery Act 2010, the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977 or other similar anti-corruption legislation in other jurisdictions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Obligor shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) conduct its businesses in compliance with applicable anti-corruption laws or regulations and anti-money laundering laws or regulations; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) establish and subsequently maintain policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote and achieve compliance with such applicable laws or regulations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.7 **Sanctions** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Obligor will maintain in effect and enforce policies and procedures reasonably designed to promote and achieve compliance by such Obligor and its directors, officers, employees and agents with applicable Sanctions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No Obligor shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to the best of its knowledge, contribute or otherwise make available all or any part of the proceeds of the Facilities, directly or indirectly, to, or for the benefit of, any person (whether or not related to any member of the Group) for the purpose of financing the activities or business of, other transactions with, or investments in, any Sanctioned Person, in breach of applicable Sanctions;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) knowingly and wilfully fund all or part of any repayment or prepayment of the Facilities out of proceeds derived from any transaction with or action involving a Sanctioned Person, in breach of applicable Sanctions; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) knowingly and wilfully engage in any transaction, activity or conduct that would violate Sanctions, that would cause any Finance Party to be in breach of any Sanctions, or that would result in it or any other member of the Group or any Finance Party being designated as a Sanctioned Person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Each Obligor shall supply (to the extent permitted by law) to the Agent details of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or, to the best of its knowledge, investigation against it by any Sanctions Authority with respect to Sanctions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The undertakings under this Clause 27.7 shall in no event be interpreted or applied to the extent that the obligations under this Clause 27.7 would violate or expose any Obligor or any of its Subsidiaries or any Finance Party or any of its Affiliates or any director, officer or employee thereof to any liability under any anti-boycott or blocking law, regulation or statute that is in force from time to time and applicable to such entity (including without limitation EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96, any law or regulation implementing such Regulation in any member state of the European Union and Section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Payments Rules (*Verordnung zur Durchführung des Außenwirtschaftsgesetzes* (*Außenwirtschaftsverordnung*)).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In relation to each Finance Party, which notifies the Agent in writing that it is a "**Restricted Finance Party**" for the purposes of this Clause 27.7, the

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 158 -<br>

------

undertakings in this Clause 27.7, shall only apply for the benefit of the Restricted Finance Party to the extent (as notified by such Restricted Finance Party to the Agent) that this would not result in any violation of conflict with or liability under EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96, any law or regulation implementing such Regulation in any member state of the European Union and Section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Payments Rules (*Verordnung zur Durchführung des Außenwirtschaftsgesetzes* (*Außenwirtschaftsverordnung*)). In connection with any amendment, waiver, determination or direction relating to any part of this Clause 27.7 of which a Restricted Finance Party does not have the benefit, the Commitments of that Restricted Finance Party (to the extent that it is a Lender) will be excluded from the numerator and denominator for the purposes of determining whether the consent of the Majority Lenders has been obtained or whether the determination or direction of the Majority Lenders has been made.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.8 **Conditions subsequent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Company shall procure that, subject to the Agreed Security Principles and the other provisions of this Clause 27.8 (*Conditions subsequent*):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within 120 days (or 180 days in the case of companies incorporated in Spain) after the delivery of the Annual Financial Statements for the relevant Financial Year demonstrating that a member of the Group that is not an Excluded Entity has become a Material Subsidiary, accede that member of the Group as an Additional Guarantor; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) when tested on the date on which the Annual Financial Statements are required to be delivered to the Agent in each Financial Year, by reference to such Annual Financial Statements, the aggregate (without double counting) earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation (calculated on a LTM basis on the same basis as Consolidated EBITDA) (but taking each entity on an unconsolidated basis and excluding all intra-Group items, goodwill and investments in Restricted Subsidiaries of any member of the Group (in each case to the extent applicable)) of the Guarantors (excluding the contribution of any entity that has negative earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation) is equal to or exceeds 80 per cent. of Consolidated EBITDA (excluding the contribution to Consolidated EBITDA of any other Excluded Entity or any member of the Group which is not required

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company shall ensure that by close of business on the date falling five Business Days following the Closing Date all relevant security (the "**Existing Security**") relating to the Existing Indebtedness has been released and discharged or customary arrangements with respect to such release or discharge have been entered into, it being understood and agreed that delivery to the Agent of a copy of any customary pay-off and/or release documents in respect of the Existing Indebtedness and/or Existing Security so received by the Company shall be sufficient to satisfy the obligations under this paragraph (b).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.9 **Further assurance** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the Agreed Security Principles, the Company and each Obligor shall (and the Company shall procure that each member of the Group which is its Restricted Subsidiary will) promptly do all such acts or execute all such documents (including assignments, transfers, mortgages, charges, notices and instructions) as the Security Agent may reasonably specify (and in such form as the Security Agent may reasonably require in favour of the Security Agent or its nominee(s)):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) to perfect the Security created or intended to be created under or evidenced by the Transaction Security Documents (which may include the execution of a mortgage, charge, assignment or other Security over all or any of the assets which are, or are intended to be, the subject of the Transaction Security) or for the exercise of any rights, powers and remedies of the Security Agent or the Finance Parties provided by or pursuant to the Finance Documents or by law;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to confer on the Security Agent or confer on the Finance Parties Security over any property and assets of that Obligor located in any jurisdiction equivalent or similar to the Security intended to be conferred by or pursuant to the Transaction Security Documents; and/or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to the Agreed Security Principles, the Company and each Obligor shall (and the Company shall procure that each member of the Group which is its Restricted Subsidiary will) take all such action as is available to it (including making all filings and registrations) as may be necessary for the purpose of the

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 160 -<br>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) In relation to any provision of this Agreement which requires the Company, the Obligors or any member of the Group which is a Restricted Subsidiary to deliver any document for the purposes of granting any guarantee or Security for the benefit of all or any of the Finance Parties, the Security Agent agrees to execute as soon as reasonably practicable any such agreed form document which is presented to it for execution.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.10 **Centre of main interests and establishments** 

Each Obligor whose jurisdiction of incorporation is a member State of the European Union shall not (without the prior written consent of the Agent) deliberately cause or allow its centre of main interests (as that term is used in Article 3(1) of the Regulation) to change in a manner which would be reasonably likely to be adverse to the interests of the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27.11 **Rating** 

The Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain and thereafter maintain a corporate rating and a rating for Facility B from two of Moody's, S&P's and Fitch, it being acknowledged and agreed that there is no required level or quality of that rating.

For the purposes set out in articles 517 et seq. of the Spanish Civil Procedural Law, the Company undertakes to raise this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, the Fee Letters, the Spanish law Security Documents, the Exchange Agreement (and any accession certificate relating to it), any other Finance Document agreed by the parties thereto to which it is a party and any document amending, extending, supplementing, ratifying and/or restating the foregoing or any other Finance Document secured by the Spanish law Security Documents (in each case, to which the Company is a party), to the status of a Spanish Public Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28. **Events of Default**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28.1 **Financial covenant** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to Clause 26.2 (*Equity Cure*) and the expiry of the equity cure period and paragraph (b) below, the Company fails to comply with the financial covenant in Clause 26.1 (*Financial condition*) when tested **provided that** no breach or default under Clause 26.1 (*Financial condition*) will constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to any Term Facility unless and until a Declared RCF Default has occurred and is continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 161 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Provided no Declared RCF Default has occurred and is continuing, a failure to comply with Clause 26.1 (*Financial condition*) on any Test Date shall be deemed remedied if Clause 26.1 (*Financial condition*) is complied with on the next Test Date (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if the Test Condition is not met in respect of such Test Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28.2 **Misrepresentation** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Any representation or statement made or deemed to be made by an Obligor in the Finance Documents or any certificate, statement or notice delivered by or on behalf of any Obligor under or in connection with any Finance Document is incorrect or misleading in any material respect as the case may be when made or deemed to be made or repeated.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No Event of Default under paragraph (a) above will occur if the circumstances giving rise to the misrepresentation are capable of remedy and are remedied within 30 Business Days of the earlier of (i) the Agent giving notice to the Company and (ii) the Company or the relevant Obligor (as applicable) becoming aware of such misrepresentation.

and the unlawfulness, invalidity, (alleged or actual) repudiation or (alleged or actual) cessation individually or cumulatively materially and adversely affects the interests of the Lenders as a whole and is not remedied within 30 Business Days of the earlier of (i) the Agent giving notice to the Company and (ii) the Company or the relevant Obligor (as applicable) becoming aware of the unlawfulness, invalidity or (alleged or actual) cessation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28.4 **Intercreditor Agreement** 

Any party to the Intercreditor Agreement (other than a Finance Party) fails to comply with a material provision of, or does not perform its material obligations under, the Intercreditor Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement ceases to be binding upon any

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 162 -<br>

(i) &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) it is capable of remedy and, if the Company is aware of it, reasonable steps are going to be taken to remedy it; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) it has not been procured by or approved by any member of the Group;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) it does not have a Material Adverse Effect; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) does not exist following the Clean-up Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the relevant circumstances are continuing on or after the Clean-up Date, there shall be a breach of representation or warranty, breach of covenant, Default or Event of Default, as the case may be, notwithstanding the above (and without prejudice to the rights and remedies of the Finance Parties).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Company shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of the occurrence or existence of any event or circumstance which would, but for this Clause 28.6, be a Default or Event of Default and steps, if any, taken to remedy it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Any Existing Lender will enter into a Confidentiality Undertaking with any potential New Lender prior to providing it with any information about the Finance Documents or the Group, **provided that** such Confidentiality Undertaking (i) will be amended to the extent necessary to ensure that it is capable of being relied upon by the Company without requiring its signature and (ii) may not otherwise be materially the Company without the consent of the Company. A copy of each Confidentiality Undertaking and any amendments to it shall be provided to the Company if requested by the Company.

Subject to the prior written consent of the Company (which may be withheld in the Company's absolute discretion), the Agent may have the right to include or replace (in each case, in aggregate) up to 3 potential transferee names to the White List in every 12 Month period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) If any assignment, transfer or sub-participation is executed in breach of the provisions of this Clause 29.1:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the right to vote in respect of the Commitments and/or participations which are the subject of the assignment, transfer or sub-participation shall be suspended and such Commitments and/or participations shall be ignored in determining the decisions requiring a vote by some or all of the Lenders or a class of them; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund of the Existing Lender; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) a person with a rating for its long-term unsecured debt obligations of at least BBB by S&P's or Fitch or at least Baa2 by Moody's or a comparable rating from an internationally recognised credit rating agency according to at least two of these rating agencies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) An assignment or transfer of part of a Lender's participation must be:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) in a minimum amount of €1,000,000 (when aggregated with, for this purpose, the participations of Affiliates and Related Funds), unless such Existing Lender's remaining participation is reduced to zero; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) so that following such assignment or transfer the remaining participation of the Existing Lender and the New Lender in respect of Commitments or Utilisations made under the Facilities (for the avoidance of doubt, not to be aggregated with, for this purpose, the participations of Affiliates and Related Funds of the Existing Lender and the New Lender, as applicable) is in a minimum amount of €1,000,000 and in a minimum aggregate amount of €3,000,000 (when aggregated with, for this purpose, the participations of Affiliates and Related Funds of the Existing Lender and the New Lender, as applicable) unless the Existing Lender's remaining participation is reduced to zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Other than in the case of an assignment permitted by paragraph (b) of Clause 30.1 (*Permitted Debt Purchase Transactions*), an assignment or transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in this Clause 29 is complied with.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) If:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) a Lender assigns, sub-participates or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its Facility Office; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, sub-participation, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 18 (*Tax Gross Up and Indemnities*) or Clause 19 (*Increased Costs*),

then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, sub-participation, transfer or change had not occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Assignment Agreement or Transfer Certificate, confirms, for the avoidance of doubt, that the Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 170 -<br>

approved by or on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the assignment or transfer becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) If an Existing Lender which is an Incremental Facility Lender under an Incremental Facility that is provided on a certain funds basis transfers any or all of its Commitments under that Incremental Facility to a New Lender (including an Affiliate or Related Fund) on or prior to the end of the Post-Closing Certain Funds Period applicable to that Incremental Facility with the consent of the Company (the "**Incremental Transferred Commitments** "), the Existing Lender shall (i) fund the Incremental Transferred Commitments in respect of that Loan by 9.30am (London time) on the applicable Utilisation Date if that New Lender has failed to so fund (or has confirmed that it will not be able to fund) on the applicable Utilisation Date (as applicable) in respect of that Incremental Facility and (ii) retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to the Incremental Transferred Commitments, including all rights with respect to waivers, consents, modifications, amendments and confirmations as to satisfaction of the requirement to receive all of the documents and other evidence listed in Part 1 of Schedule 2 (*Conditions Precedent*) until after the occurrence of the first Utilisation Date of that Incremental Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.2 **Assignment or transfer fee** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the Agent otherwise agrees and excluding an assignment or transfer made in connection with primary syndication of the Facilities, the New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a transfer fee of €4,000.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Obligors shall not pay any notarial and security registration or perfection fees, costs and expenses as a result of an assignment or transfer.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If any New Lender fails to pay any transfer fee payable by it hereunder on the due date, the Agent may at any time deduct an amount equal to such fee from any moneys from time to time held by the Agent for account of such New Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.3 **Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents, the Transaction Security or any other documents;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the financial condition of any Obligor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the performance and observance by any Obligor or any other member of the Group of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender, the other Finance Parties and the Secured Parties that it:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender or any other Finance Party in connection with any Finance Document or the Transaction Security; and

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) accept a re-assignment or re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 29; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.4 **Procedure for transfer** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 29.1 (*Assignments and transfers by the Lenders*) a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. If any New Lender fails to pay any transfer fee payable by it in accordance with this Agreement on the due date, the Agent may at any time deduct an amount equal to such fee from any moneys from time to time held by the Agent for account of the New Lender. The Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender upon its completion of all **know your customer** or similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.5 **Procedure for assignment** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 29.1 (*Assignments and transfers by the Lenders*) an assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Assignment Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary **know your customer** or similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Subject to Clause 29.9 (*Pro rata interest settlement*), on the Transfer Date:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender its rights under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security expressed to be the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the New Lender shall become a Party as a "**Lender**" and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the Relevant Obligations.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 29.5 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 29.4 (*Procedure for transfer*), to obtain a release by that Obligor from the obligations owed to that Obligor by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) **provided that** they comply with the conditions set out in Clause 29.1 (*Assignments and transfers by the Lenders*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Existing Lender has consented to a waiver or amendment prior to the date on which the assignment becomes effective, then the New Lender shall be deemed to have consented to such waiver or amendment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 29, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time assign, charge, pledge or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any assignment, charge, pledge or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank) including, without limitation, any assignment of rights to a special purpose vehicle where Security over securities issued by such special purpose vehicle is to be created in favour of a federal reserve or central bank (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the European Central Bank); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any assignment, charge, pledge or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities,

except that no such assignment, charge, pledge or other Security shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant assignment, charge, pledge or other Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) require any payments to be made by an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.9  ***Pro rata* interest settlement** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 29.4 (*Procedure for transfer*) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 29.5 (*Procedure for assignment*) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date ()"**Accrued Amounts**") and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts so that, for the avoidance of doubt:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account of the Existing Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 29.9, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) In this Clause 29.9 references to "**Interest Period**" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Agent will have no responsibility to intervene in or facilitate any arrangements that may be agreed between the Existing Lender and the New Lender regarding the sharing of any interest and/or fees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.10 **No costs for Obligors** 

No Obligor shall bear any Taxes, notarial and security registration or perfection fees or costs, increased cost, gross-up or indemnity costs that result from, or would not have arisen but for the circumstances existing at the time of an assignment, transfer or sub-participation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29.11 **Novation** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Unless the Company and the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) agree otherwise, each Luxembourg Obligor hereby expressly accepts and confirms, for the purposes of articles 1278 and 1281 of the Luxembourg civil code, that notwithstanding any assignment, transfer and/or novation made in connection with this Clause 29, the Transaction Security Documents to which such Luxembourg Obligor is a party and the guarantee given by it under this Agreement shall be preserved for the benefit of the New Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Parties expressly agree, for the purposes of article 1,204 of the Spanish Civil Code, that the obligations of a Spanish Obligor under this Agreement and any Spanish law governed Security Documents will continue in full force and effect following any transfer by way of novation made pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 29.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Obligor domiciled in Spain accepts all transfers and assignments made pursuant to and in accordance with this Clause 29 without requiring any additional formalities not required by this Clause 29, including, without limitation, the notification to any Obligor of the relevant transfer or assignment (but without prejudice to the other notification requirements set out in this Clause 29), or the execution of any transfer or assignment document as a Spanish Public Document in Spain or the notarisation of the relevant document in any other country.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30. **Debt Purchase Transactions** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30.1 **Permitted Debt Purchase Transactions** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Company shall not, and shall procure that each other member of the Group shall not (i) enter into any Debt Purchase Transaction other than in accordance with the other provisions of this Clause 30 or (ii) beneficially own all or any part of the share capital of a company that is a Lender or a party to a Debt Purchase Transaction of the type referred to in paragraphs (b) or (c) of the definition of "**Debt Purchase Transaction** ".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any member of the Group (each a "**Purchaser**") may purchase by way of assignment, pursuant to Clause 29 (*Changes to the Lenders*), a participation in any Term Loan and any related Commitment where:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) such purchase is made for a consideration of less than par;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) such purchase is made at a time when no Event of Default is continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) A Debt Purchase Transaction referred to in paragraph (b) above may be entered into pursuant to a solicitation process (a "**Solicitation Process**") which is carried out as follows :

Any Lender wishing to make such an offer shall, by 11am on the second Business Day following such Solicitation Day,

In any event by 11am on the fourth Business Day following such Solicitation Day, the Purchaser shall notify the Agent of the amounts of the participations purchased through the relevant Solicitation Process, the identity of the Term Facilities to which they relate and the average price paid for the purchase of participations in each relevant Term Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) A Debt Purchase Transaction referred to in paragraph (b) above may also be entered into pursuant to an open order process (an "**Open Order Process**") which is carried out as follows :

Any Lender wishing to sell pursuant to an Open Order will, by 11am on any Business Day following the date on which the Open Order is placed but no earlier than the first Business Day, and no later than the fifth Business Day, following the date on which the Open Order is placed, communicate to the Purchase Agent details of the amount of its participations, and in which Term Facilities, it is offering to sell. Any such offer to sell shall be irrevocable until 11am on the Business Day following the date of such offer from the Lender and shall be capable of acceptance by the Purchaser on or before such time by it communicating such acceptance in writing to the relevant Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) If in respect of participations in a Term Facility the Purchase Agent receives on the same Business Day two or more offers at the set price such that the maximum amount of such Term Facility to which an Open Order relates would be exceeded, the Purchaser shall only accept such offers on a *pro rata* basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) The Purchaser shall, by 11am on the sixth Business Day following the date on which an Open Order is placed, notify the Agent of the amounts of the participations purchased through such Open Order Process and the identity of the Term Facilities to which they relate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any purchase of participations in the Term Facilities pursuant to a Bilateral Process shall be completed and settled by the relevant Purchaser on or before the second Business Day after the expiry of the Bilateral Process period referred to in paragraph (i) above; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) a Purchaser shall promptly notify the Agent of the amounts of each participation purchased through such Bilateral Process and the identity of the Facilities to which they relate. The Agent shall disclose such information to any Lender that requests the same.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) For the avoidance of doubt, there is no limit on the number of occasions a Solicitation Process or an Open Order Process or a Bilateral Process may be implemented.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Each Finance Party (other than the Agent) hereby undertakes to the Agent that, promptly upon request, such Finance Party will ratify and confirm all transactions entered into and other actions by the Agent (or any of its substitutes or delegates) in the proper exercise of the power granted to it hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Notwithstanding paragraph (e) above, a Finance Party (other than the Agent) that has notified the Agent that it cannot authorise or empower, or has not authorised or empowered, the Agent to act on its behalf, irrevocably undertakes to the Agent and the other Finance Parties to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) appear and execute with the Agent to enable the Agent to exercise any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Agent pursuant to this

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.3 **Instructions** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Agent shall:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) the Super Majority Lenders if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is a Super Majority Lender decision; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) in all other cases, the Majority Lenders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent shall be entitled to request instructions, or clarification of any instruction, from the Majority Lenders (or, if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Lender or group of Lenders, from that Lender or group of Lenders) as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power or authority and the Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives those instructions or that clarification.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Lender or group of Lenders under the relevant Finance Document and unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, any instructions given to the Agent by the Majority Lenders shall override any conflicting instructions given by any other Parties and will be binding on all Finance Parties save for the Security Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Lender or group of Lenders until it has received any indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Finance Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability which it may incur in complying with those instructions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) In the absence of instructions, the Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Lender (without first obtaining that Lender's consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings relating to any Finance Document. This paragraph (f) shall not apply to any legal or arbitration proceeding relating to the perfection, preservation or protection of rights under the Transaction Security Documents or enforcement of the Transaction Security or Transaction Security Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.4 **Duties of the Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Agent's duties under the Finance Documents are solely mechanical and administrative in nature.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to paragraph (c) below, the Agent shall promptly forward to a Party the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to the Agent for that Party by any other Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) If the Agent receives notice from a Party referring to this Agreement, describing a Default and stating that the circumstance described is a Default, it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) If the Agent is aware of the non-payment of any principal, interest, commitment fee or other fee payable to a Finance Party (other than the Agent, the Arrangers or the Security Agent) under this Agreement it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) The Agent shall provide to the Company upon its request a list (which may be in electronic form) setting out the names of the then existing Lenders, their respective Commitments, the address (and the department or officer, if any, for whose attention any communication is to be made) of each Lender for any communication to be made or document to be delivered under or in connection with the Finance Documents, the electronic mail address and/or any other information in its possession required to enable the sending and receipt of information by electronic mail or other electronic means to and by each Lender to whom any communication under or in connection with the Finance Documents may be made by that means.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) The Agent shall have only those duties, obligations and responsibilities expressly specified in the Finance Documents to which it is expressed to be a party (and no others shall be implied).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) The Agent shall, in relation to any vote, provide to the Company (upon the Company's request) full details of the Lenders' voting including, for each Lender, its Commitment, whether it has voted and how it has voted.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.5 **Role of the Arranger** 

Except as specifically provided in the Finance Documents, each Arranger has no obligations of any kind to any other Party under or in connection with any Finance Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.6 **Role of the Sustainability Coordinator** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Sustainability Coordinator will not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document in such capacity, unless directly caused by its gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No party (other than the Sustainability Coordinator) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of the Sustainability Coordinator in respect of any claim it might have against the Sustainability Coordinator or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document and any officer, employee or agent of the Sustainability Coordinator may rely on this Clause 32.6, subject to Clause 1.5 (*Third party rights*) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Sustainability Coordinator shall not act for nor represent the Finance Parties, and each Finance Party is solely responsible at all times for making its own independent appraisal of and analysis in relation to any sustainable aspects for the purpose of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Nothing in any Finance Document constitutes the Agent, the Sustainability Coordinator, any Arranger or the Issuing Bank as a trustee of any other person. Neither the Agent, the Sustainability Coordinator nor any Arranger has any financial or commercial duty of care for any person.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) None of the Agent, any Arranger, the Issuing Bank or any Ancillary Lender shall be bound to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by it for its own account.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) assume that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) any instructions received by it from the Majority Lenders, the Super Majority Lenders, any Lenders or any group of Lenders are duly given in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) unless it has received notice of revocation, that those instructions have not been revoked; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) rely on a certificate from any person:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) as to any matter of fact or circumstance which might reasonably be expected to be within the knowledge of that person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) to the effect that such person approves of any particular dealing, transaction, step, action or thing,

as sufficient evidence that that is the case and, in the case of paragraph (A) above, may assume the truth and accuracy of that certificate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as agent for the Lenders) that:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) no Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of a Default arising under paragraphs 1(a) and/or (b) of Schedule 17 (*Events of Default*));

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any right, power, authority or discretion vested in any Party or any group of Lenders has not been exercised;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) any notice or request made by the Company (other than a Utilisation Request or Selection Notice) is made on behalf of and with the consent and knowledge of all the Obligors; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) no Notifiable Debt Purchase Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) has been entered into;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) has been terminated; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) has ceased to be with a Sponsor Affiliate.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The Agent may engage and pay for the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (c) above or paragraph (e) below, the Agent may at any time engage and pay for the services of any lawyers

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 193 -<br>

------

to act as independent counsel to the Agent (and so separate from any lawyers instructed by the Lenders) if the Agent in its reasonable opinion deems this to be desirable.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Agent may rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts (whether obtained by the Agent or by any other Party) and shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of its so relying.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) The Agent may act in relation to the Finance Documents through its officers, employees and agents and the Agent shall not:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) be liable for any error of judgment made by any such person; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) be bound to supervise, or be in any way responsible for, any loss incurred by reason of misconduct, omission or default on the part, of any such person,

unless such error or such loss was directly caused by the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) Unless a Finance Document expressly provides otherwise the Agent may disclose to any other Party any information it reasonably believes it has received as agent under this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (g) above, the Agent:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) may disclose; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) on the written request of the Company or the Majority Lenders shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, disclose,

the identity of a Defaulting Lender to the Company and to the other Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, none of the Agent, the Arrangers, the Sustainability Coordinator or the Issuing Bank is obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) The Agent is not obliged to disclose to any Finance Party any details of the rate notified to the Agent by any Lender or the identity of any such Lender for the purpose of Clause 16.3 (*Market disruption*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power or authority if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any determination as to whether any information provided or to be provided to any Finance Party is non-public information the use of which may be regulated or prohibited by applicable law or regulation relating to insider dealing or otherwise.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.11 **No duty to monitor** 

The Agent shall not be bound to enquire:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) whether or not any Default has occurred;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) as to the performance, default or any breach by any Party of its obligations under any Finance Document; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) whether any other event specified in any Finance Document has occurred.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Agent or the Arrangers to carry out:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any **know your customer** or other checks in relation to any person; or

In no event shall the Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, whether or not the Agent has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damages.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.13 **Lenders' indemnity to the Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Lender shall (in proportion to its share of the Total Commitments or, if the Total Commitments are then zero, to its share of the Total Commitments immediately prior to their reduction to zero) indemnify the Agent, within three Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability (including, without limitation, for negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever) incurred by the Agent (otherwise than by reason of the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) (or, in the case of any cost, loss or liability pursuant to Clause 35.11 (*Disruption to Payment Systems etc*), notwithstanding the Agent's negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the Agent has been reimbursed by an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to paragraph (c) below, the Company shall immediately on demand reimburse any Lender for any payment that Lender makes to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Paragraph (b) above shall not apply to the extent that the indemnity payment in respect of which the Lender claims reimbursement relates to a liability of the Agent to an Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.14 **Resignation of the Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Agent may resign (after prior notification to the Company) and appoint one of its Affiliates acting through an office in the European Union or the United Kingdom as successor by giving notice to the Lenders and the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, the Agent may resign by giving 30 days' notice to the Lenders and the Company, in which case the Majority Lenders (with the consent of the Company, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, **provided that**, for the avoidance of doubt, it shall not be unreasonable to withhold or delay consent where the Company has made reasonable requests for information about the proposed successor Agent and that information has not been provided or the proposed successor Agent is an Industrial Competitor) may appoint a successor Agent , which shall be incorporated or acting through an office in the European Union or the United Kingdom.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Agent (after consultation with the Company) may appoint a

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 197 -<br>

successor Agent (acting through an office in the European Union or the United Kingdom).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) The Agent's resignation notice shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (d) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 20.3 (*Indemnity to the Agent*) and this Clause 32 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date). Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 18.9 (*FATCA Information*) and the Company or a Lender reasonably believes that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 18.9 (*FATCA Information*) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) Any successor Agent and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party, including the capacity to represent any Finance Party for the purposes of raising any Finance Document, any Assignment Agreement, any Transfer Certificate and any Exchange Accession Certificate (as this term

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 198 -<br>

is defined in the Exchange Agreement) to the status of Spanish Public Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.15 **Replacement of the Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) With the consent of the Company (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Majority Lenders may, by giving 30 days' notice to the Agent (or, at any time the Agent is an Impaired Agent, by giving any shorter notice determined by the Majority Lenders) replace the Agent by appointing a successor Agent (acting through an office in the European Union or the United Kingdom).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The retiring Agent shall (at its own cost if it is an Impaired Agent and otherwise at the expense of the Lenders) make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) The appointment of the successor Agent shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Lenders to the retiring Agent. As from this date, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (b) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 20.3 (*Indemnity to the Agent*) and this Clause 32 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) Any successor Agent and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party, including the capacity to represent any Finance Party for the purposes of raising any Finance Document, any Assignment Agreement, any Transfer Certificate and any Exchange Accession Certificate (as this term is defined in the Exchange Agreement) to the status of Spanish Public Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.16 **Confidentiality** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In acting as agent for the Finance Parties, the Agent shall be regarded as acting through its agency division which shall be treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) If information is received by another division or department of the Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Agent nor the Arrangers is obliged to disclose to any other person (i) any confidential information or (ii) any other information if the disclosure would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of any law or a breach of a fiduciary duty.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.17 **Relationship with the Lenders** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to Clause 29.9 (*Pro rata interest settlement*), the Agent may treat the person shown in its records as Lender at the opening of business (in the place of the Agent's principal office as notified to the Finance Parties from time to time) as the Lender acting through its Facility Office:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) entitled to or liable for any payment due under any Finance Document on that day; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) entitled to receive and act upon any notice, request, document or communication or make any decision or determination under any Finance Document made or delivered on that day,

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Any Lender may by notice to the Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices, communications, information and documents to be made or dispatched to that Lender under the Finance Documents. Such notice shall contain the address and either the fax number or (where communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under Clause 37.6 (*Electronic communication*)) the electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address and either a fax number or an electronic mail address and department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 37.2 (*Addresses*) and paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 37.6 (*Electronic communication*) and the Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.18 **Credit appraisal by the Lenders, Issuing Bank and Ancillary Lenders** 

Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender, Issuing Bank and Ancillary Lender confirms to the Agent, the Arrangers, the Sustainability Coordinator, the Issuing Bank and each Ancillary Lender that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with any Finance Document including but not limited to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the financial condition, status and nature of each member of the Group;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of the Report and any other information provided by the Agent, any Party or by any other person under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the right or title of any person in or to, or the value or sufficiency of any part of the Charged Property, the priority of any of the Transaction Security or the existence of any Security affecting the Charged Property.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.19 **Base Reference Banks** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If a Base Reference Bank (or, if a Base Reference Bank is not a Lender, the Lender of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Lender, the Agent shall (in consultation with the Company) appoint another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender to replace that Base Reference Bank.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) No Base Reference Bank is under any obligation to provide a quotation or any other information to the Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) No Base Reference Bank will be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, or for any Reference Bank Quotation, unless directly caused by its gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

No Party (other than the relevant Base Reference Bank) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of any Base Reference Bank in respect of any claim it might have against that Base Reference Bank or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document, or to any Reference Bank Quotation, and any officer, employee or agent of each Base Reference Bank may rely on this Clause 32.19 subject to Clause 1.5 (*Third party rights*) and the provisions of the Third Parties Act.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32.20 **Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent** 

If any Finance Party owes an amount to the Agent under the Finance Documents the Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Finance Party which the Agent would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Finance Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted and each Finance Party hereby agrees to those terms.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33. **Conduct of Business by the Finance Parties** 

No provision of this Agreement will:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34. **Sharing among the Finance Parties** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.1 **Payments to Finance Parties** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if a Finance Party (a "**Recovering Finance Party**") receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 35 (*Payment Mechanics*) (a "**Recovered Amount**") and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) 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 35 (*Payment Mechanics*), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three 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 35.6 (*Partial payments*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 202 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Paragraph (a) above shall not apply to any amount received or recovered by an Issuing Bank or an Ancillary Lender in respect of any cash cover provided for the benefit of that Issuing Bank or that Ancillary Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.2 **Redistribution of payments** 

The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the "**Sharing Finance Parties**") in accordance with Clause 35.6 (*Partial payments*) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.3 **Recovering Finance Party's rights** 

On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 34.2 (*Redistribution of payments*) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.4 **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:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) that Recovering Finance Party's rights of assignment in respect of any reimbursement shall be cancelled and the relevant Obligor will be liable to the reimbursing Finance Party for the amount so reimbursed and the Recovering Finance Party shall re-assign any claims assigned to it pursuant to Clause 34.3 (*Recovering Finance Party's rights*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.5 **Exceptions** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Clause 34 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause 34, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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:

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 203 -<br>

------

practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) This Clause 34 will not apply to any amounts which, as principal and/or interest, are no longer received by any Lenders which, in the event of any Obligor's insolvency and pursuant to article 281.1.5º, in relation to articles 282, 283 and 284 of the Spanish Insolvency Law, need to be treated as subordinated creditors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) This Clause 34 shall not apply to the extent that a Recovering Finance Party shall have received an amount in excess of the amount it would have received in accordance with Clause 35 (*Payment Mechanics*) pursuant to article 280 of the Spanish Insolvency Law, unless the Recovering Finance Party prior to commencement of an Insolvency Proceeding against any Obligor has requested the Agent to start such proceeding jointly on behalf of the Lenders and such request has not been approved by the Majority Lenders within 10 Business Days of such request.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34.6 **Ancillary Lenders** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) This Clause 34 shall not apply to any receipt or recovery by a Lender in its capacity as an Ancillary Lender at any time prior to service of notice under Clause 28.5 (*Acceleration*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Following the occurrence of a Declared Default which is continuing, this Clause 34 shall apply to all receipts or recoveries by Ancillary Lenders except to the extent that the receipt or recovery represents a reduction of the Gross Outstandings of a Multi-account Overdraft to or towards an amount equal to its Net Outstandings.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35. **Payment Mechanics** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35.1 **Payments to the Agent** 

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in a principal financial centre in a Participating Member State or London) and with such bank as the Agent specifies.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35.2 **Distributions by the Agent** 

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 35.3 (*Distributions to an Obligor*) and Clause 35.4 (*Clawback and pre-funding*) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in the case of

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 204 -<br>

------

a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days' notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London, as specified by that Party).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35.3 **Distributions to an Obligor** 

The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 36 (*Set-Off*)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35.4 **Clawback and pre-funding** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(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.

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is willing to make available amounts for the account of a Borrower before receiving funds from the Lenders then if and to the extent that the Agent does so but it proves to be the case that it does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to a Borrower:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Agent shall notify the Company of that Lender's identity and the Borrower to whom that sum was made available shall on demand refund it to the Agent; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if that Lender fails to do so, the Borrower to whom that sum was made available, shall on demand pay to the Agent the amount (as certified by the Agent) which will indemnify the Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before receiving those funds from that Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35.5 **Impaired Agent** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Agent in accordance with Clause 35.1 (*Payments to the Agent*) may instead either:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s); or

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) if in its absolute discretion it considers that it is not reasonably practicable to pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s), pay that amount or the relevant part of that amount to an interest-bearing account held with an Approved Bank within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of "**Approved Bank**" and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment (the "**Paying Party**") and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents (the "**Recipient Party**" or "**Recipient Parties** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Should a Lender not deliver a Transfer Certificate in accordance with paragraph (a)(iii)(A) or, in the event that the Company elects, on five Business Days' written notice to a Non-Consenting Lender and the Agent on an irrevocable and unconditional basis, to prepay or replace a Non-Consenting Lender in full in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Clause 41.7, such Lender shall be excluded from both the numerator and the denominator in calculating the aggregate Commitments and participations of Lenders in respect of any relevant Facility, Utilisation and/or class of Lender and the proportions that have voted for or against such consent, waiver or approval until such transfer is effected.

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

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

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) For the purposes of this Clause 41.8, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a), (b), (e) or (f) of the definition of "**Defaulting Lender**" has occurred,

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 221 -<br>

------

unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Where a Non-Consenting Lender has been replaced within fifteen (15) days following the last day for acceptance or rejection of any waiver, consent, or amendment request:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment which has been replaced will be disregarded and (where replaced) the Replacement Lender's relevant Commitment will be eligible to vote in respect of the request and will be included for the purpose of calculating the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) **provided that** the Replacement Lender gives its consent to the relevant request within two Business Days following the transfer to it of the Non-Consenting Lender's Commitment, it will be deemed to have consented to that request within the required period for Lender responses,

and the Agent will recalculate whether the requisite percentage of the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders have been obtained to approve the relevant request without the need to re-ballot the Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;42. **Confidentiality** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;42.1 **Confidential Information**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Paragraph (b) of this Clause 47.3 is also applicable to any Lender with regard to its Commitment. Such Lender may issue the appropriate certification of the balances of the relevant account(s) referred to in paragraph (a) of this Clause 47.3 and the certification of the balances of such accounts may be legalised by a notary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The amount of the balances determined in accordance with this Clause 47.3 shall be notified to the relevant Spanish Obligor in an attestable manner at least three (3) days in advance of exercising any executive action.

**WHEREAS**:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) We refer to the Facilities Agreement and to the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Facilities Agreement). This is a Transfer Certificate.

With respect to the Transaction Security Documents governed by Italian law, any transfer made under this Agreement by way of English law novation shall be construed under Italian law as a *cessione totale o parziale del contratto* or a *cessione del credito* or otherwise a *successione a titolo particolare* and shall not entail under Italian law a *novazione* of (or have an *effetto novativo* on) this Agreement or such Transaction Security Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. The servicing of this Agreement to the Obligors' Agent shall be deemed to constitute adequate notice under and in accordance with articles 1264 and 1407 of the Italian Civil Code.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The New Lender expressly acknowledges the limitations on the Existing Lender's obligations set out in Clause 29.3 (*Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders*) of the Facilities Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) [a Treaty Lender.]

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. The New Lender's tax identification number and address for tax purposes is [•].

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. It is expressly agreed that the security created or evidenced by the Security Documents will be preserved for the benefit of the New Lender and each other Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. This Agreement has been entered into on the date stated at the beginning of this Agreement.

**Note: The execution of this Transfer Certificate may not transfer a proportionate share of the Existing Lender's interest in the Transaction Security in all jurisdictions. It is the responsibility of the New Lender to ascertain whether any other documents or other formalities are required to perfect a transfer of such a share in the Existing Lender's Transaction Security in any jurisdiction and, if so, to arrange for execution of those documents and completion of those formalities.**

**With respect to the Transaction Security Documents governed by Spanish law, any transfer made under this Agreement shall be construed under Spanish law as an assignment of a contractual position (cesión de posición contractual) and shall not entail under Spanish law a novation with extinctive nature (novación extintiva) or shall have a novative effect on the Facilities Agreement.**

#### Schedule 11 <br> Agreed Security Principles
**General**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1. With regard to any proposed transaction security and/or guarantees to be provided, due regard shall be had to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) general legal and statutory limitations (including guarantee limitations), regulatory restrictions, financial assistance, capital maintenance, corporate benefit, corporate purpose, misuse of corporate assets, equity subordination, fraudulent preference, limitations of the granting of guarantee by holding companies, "interest stripping", "controlled foreign corporation", transfer pricing or "thin capitalisation" rules, tax restrictions retention of title claims and similar principles may prohibit, limit or otherwise restrict the ability of a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise. The Company will use reasonable endeavours to procure that each guarantor that has adequate corporate benefit gives the relevant guarantees and security required by this Agreement. If any such limit applies, the guarantees and security provided will be limited to the maximum amount which the relevant member of the Group may provide having regard to applicable law (including any jurisprudence) and subject to fiduciary duties of management. A guarantee or security interest will not be required if, or its enforceability will be limited if and to the extent that, giving such guarantee or taking such security would expose the directors, officers or employees of the relevant company to a risk of personal liability;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the giving of a guarantee, the granting and the terms of security and/or the perfection of the security granted will not be required to the extent that it would, as reasonably determined by the Company in consultation with the Security Agent, incur any legal fees, registration fees, notarisation and registration fees, interest deductibility, stamp duty, taxes and any other fees, costs, expenses or liabilities directly associated with such security or guarantee (including any material adverse tax consequences or treatments or adverse effects on interest deductibility and stamp duty) which are disproportionate to the benefit obtained by the Finance Parties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by an Obligor in a particular category the principle stated at paragraph (b) above shall apply and, subject to these Agreed Security Principles, only the material assets in that category shall be subject to security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) it is acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions, it may be impossible, impractical, or disproportionately costly to create guarantees or security over certain categories of assets, in which event guarantees or security will not be taken over such assets as reasonably determined by the Company in consultation with the Security Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the maximum guaranteed or secured amount may be limited to minimise stamp duty, notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, taxes and duties where the benefit of increasing the guaranteed or secured amount is disproportionate

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 271 -<br>

------

to the level of such fee, taxes and duties (and, in any event, the maximum aggregate amount payable by the Group in respect of fees, costs, expenses, disbursements and VAT relating to the provision of guarantees and security shall be limited to an amount agreed between the Security Agent and the Company);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(f) assets subject to existing third party arrangements (including, without limitation, any landlord's superior interest, transfer restrictions, pre-emption rights, bank account terms and conditions, permitted security interests and joint venture voting reserved matters or put and call arrangements) which may prevent those assets from being charged or assigned (or which, if charged or assigned, would give a third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of the Group in respect of those assets or require any member of the Group to take any action materially adverse to the interests of the Group or any member thereof) will not be required to be subject to any security **provided that** in respect of assets material in light of the aggregate security already or proposed to be provided the Company uses reasonable endeavours to obtain any necessary consent or release which, for the avoidance of doubt, will not require the Company to take any action which could reasonably be expected to damage its commercial relationship with the relevant third party or to pay any fees or third party expenses which are disproportionate to the value of the security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(g) members of the Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into Transaction Security Documents if (i) it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant members of the Group to do so (ii) it results in the Transaction Security Document being null and void, or (iii) it would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors, officers or employees, contravene any legal or regulatory prohibition, or regulatory condition or result in a risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any director, officer or employee: The Security Agent or the other secured parties, as the case may be, shall discharge any guarantees and release any security which is or are subject to any legal or regulatory prohibition as is referred to in this paragraph as soon as reasonably practicable after becoming aware of such prohibition (for the avoidance of doubt, this does not include restrictions contained in the constitutional documents of wholly owned members of the Group);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(h) certain supervisory board, works council, regulator or regulatory board (or equivalent) or another external body's or person's consent may be required to enable a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security: Such guarantee and/or security shall not be required unless such consent has been received, **provided that** reasonable endeavours have been used by the relevant member of the Group to obtain the relevant consent to the extent permissible by law and regulation and such consent has no material adverse impact on relationships with third parties;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) specific provisions of local law as advised by the advisers to the Security Agent and the advisers to the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(j) if in a jurisdiction security over an asset or a class of assets can be taken by way of an undisclosed document and by way of a disclosed document, security shall

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 272 -<br>

------

be taken by way of an undisclosed document if a disclosed document does not result in a material increase (relative to an undisclosed document) in the qualities or strength of such security unless customary or legally required in the relevant jurisdiction;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) if in a jurisdiction security over an asset or a class of assets can be taken by way of a registered document or by way of an unregistered document, security shall be taken by way of an unregistered document if a registered document does not result in a material increase (relative to an unregistered document) in the qualities or strength of such security;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(l) if in a jurisdiction security over an asset or a class of assets has to be made public by way of announcement in a gazette (or the legal advisers to the Security Agent advise that it will materially improve the strength or quality of such security) such security shall only be required to be granted or (where the Security Agent has been advised as above) announced in a gazette if (a) security over such asset or class of assets is material in light of the aggregate security already or proposed to be provided and (b) the relevant Obligor's commercial relationships with actual or prospective counterparties could not reasonably be expected to be prejudiced by the relevant announcement, as advised in good faith by the Company;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(m) the ability of each company which is proposed to provide security and/or a guarantee to the Finance Parties to operate as permitted by the Finance Documents or in the ordinary course of its business and in the ordinary course of trade with regard to its current practices and the local market practice applicable in the jurisdictions the respective company has business operations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(n) Transaction Security granted will be limited to: (i) shares in direct or indirect wholly owned Restricted Subsidiaries of the Company that are Obligors, (ii) material intra-group loans owed to it by a member of the Group and (iii) material bank accounts of the Group. No security will be granted over any other assets (including, without limitation, real estate, intellectual property, fixed assets and trade receivables) unless granted pursuant to a floating charge under a global security document governed by English or US law. Transaction Security on the Closing Date covers (i) material bank accounts of the Company; (ii) shares or quota shares (*participaciones*) in the Company, and (iii) material intra-group loans owed to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(o) no member of the Group incorporated in any jurisdiction other than the Security Jurisdictions shall be required to accede to the Finance Documents, give a guarantee or grant any security over its assets. No member of the Group shall be required to grant security over any assets (including the shares of any subsidiary) located in a jurisdiction other than a Security Jurisdiction or pursuant to a document governed by the law of a jurisdiction other than a Security Jurisdiction.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(p) unless granted under a global security document governed by the law of the jurisdiction of an Obligor, all security shall be governed by the law of and secure assets located in the jurisdiction of incorporation of that Obligor;

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 273 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(q) save as otherwise provided for in these Agreed Security Principles, the perfection of security granted will not be required if it would be reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Obligor to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course or as otherwise permitted by the Finance Documents (including, without limitation, notification of security to any third party);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(r) no title investigations will be required and no title insurance will be required;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(s) the Security Agent will hold one set of security interests for the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) to the extent reasonably practicable taking into account local law considerations;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(t) members of the Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into Transaction Security Documents if they are not wholly owned by another member of the Group and are prevented from doing so under the terms of any agreement that is (i) with any person that is not a member of the Group and (ii) in existence as at the Closing Date or (with respect to newly acquired entities) as at (or within 10 Business Days after) the time of completion of the relevant transaction (as the case may be) **provided that** reasonable endeavours to obtain consent or waivers from the other parties to such agreement shall be used by the relevant member of the Group if the relevant asset is material and if, in the view of the Company (acting reasonably), taking (or requesting) such security or granting (or requesting) such guarantee would not have a material adverse impact on commercial relationships with third parties or otherwise force the relevant member of the Group or the Group to incur any material cost;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(u) any determination of materiality to be made under any Transaction Security Document(s), or in respect of any Transaction Security to be granted or assets to be subject to any such Transaction Security shall be made by the Company in consultation with the Security Agent;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) no guarantee or security will be required from or over, or over the assets of, any joint venture or similar arrangement or any minority interest;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(w) no member of the Group that is subject to a license under any law or regulation that would prohibit or materially restrict the granting of security or giving of guarantees shall be required to grant any security or give any guarantees, **provided that** reasonable endeavours to obtain consent or waivers from any relevant party shall be used by the relevant member of the Group if the relevant member of the Group is a Material Company and if, in the view of the Company (acting reasonably), granting such security or giving such guarantee will have no material adverse impact on relationships with third parties or otherwise force the relevant member of the Group or the Group to incur any material cost;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(x) Transaction Security will not be required over any cash constituting regulatory capital or customer cash (and such assets or cash shall be excluded from any relevant Transaction Security Document); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 274 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(y) in no event shall control agreements or perfection by control (excluding in respect of shares) or similar arrangements be required with respect to any asset (including deposit or securities accounts).

**Terms of Guarantees and Transaction Security Documents**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2. The Security Agent and the Company shall negotiate the form of each Transaction Security Document in good faith in accordance with the terms of these Agreed Security Principles: Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, any guarantee and security arrangements agreed by the Security Agent and the Company from time to time (including the identity and category of assets subject or not subject to security) shall be deemed to satisfy all relevant obligations of the Group to provide guarantees and security in respect of the relevant Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3. Subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, security shall only be enforceable, and any withdrawal of rights in respect of secured assets shall only be exercisable, after the occurrence of a Declared Default which is continuing and the Security Agent has been instructed (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) to enforce the relevant Transaction Security.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. The Security Agent shall only be able to exercise a power of attorney following the occurrence of a Declared Default which is continuing or if the relevant Obligor has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation following a period of at least 10 Business Days after being given notice in respect thereof.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. Transaction Security Documents will, where possible and practical, automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured; where local law requires supplemental charges to be delivered in respect of future acquired assets in order for effective security to be created over that class of asset, such supplemental charges shall be provided at intervals no more frequent than annually, except where a Declared Default has occurred and is continuing and if so requested by the Security Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. Save as otherwise provided in these Agreed Security Principles, with regard to guarantees and security due regard shall be had to the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) all guarantees shall to the extent possible support the obligations of all of the Obligors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) all upstream and cross-stream guarantees and security must be limited by corporate benefit restrictions if so required;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) all guarantees and security must be limited by financial assistance restrictions if so required;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) all guarantees and security must be limited to the extent necessary in order to avoid any personal civil or criminal liability of any director or officer arising as a result of providing such guarantee or security being enforced by the Security Agent or the Finance Parties; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) directors and/or officers of Obligors will use reasonable endeavours to overcome any legal or other restriction on providing guarantees or security.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 275 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. Any security shall to the extent legally possible (and subject to any third party arrangements) create valid, enforceable, perfected and first priority security over such assets (subject to the priorities set out in the Intercreditor Agreement) and shall be granted to secure all liabilities of the grantor under the Finance Documents (subject to these Agreed Security Principles and any other guarantor limitation language applicable to the grantor).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. To the extent legally possible and unless otherwise customary in the relevant jurisdiction, all security shall be given in favour of the Security Agent (for and on behalf of the Finance Parties) and not to the Finance Parties individually: Parallel debt provisions shall be used where necessary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. The provisions of all Transaction Security Documents should operate only so as to create and preserve effective security and shall not be unduly burdensome on the Obligor or on management of the Group or interfere unreasonably with the operation of its business or impose undertakings, representations or warranties (or repeat those in this Agreement) or include any provisions which are credit protections or which seek to preserve the value or existence of assets, nor indemnities, in each case unless those are legally required for the creation, maintenance or perfection of the security. Any representation given shall not be repeated and shall be given only on the date on which such Transaction Security Document is executed.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. The Transaction Security Documents should not operate so as to prevent transactions or arrangements (including, without limitation, disposals and the grant of guarantees and/or security) which are permitted or not prohibited under the Finance Documents or to require additional consents, notices or authorisations. Without limitation of the foregoing (and unless expressly provided to the contrary in this Agreement), each Obligor shall be permitted to make use of assets (over which it has granted security) or enter into arrangements in its ordinary course of business and trade, including, but not limited to, disposals in the ordinary course of its business or trade without giving prior notice and without prior consent required (unless such notice or consent is required pursuant to the terms of the other Finance Documents) until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Where an Obligor is not prohibited by or is permitted by the Finance Documents to dispose of an asset forming part of the transaction security pursuant to the terms of the Finance Documents or the Finance Documents otherwise permit the release of any guarantee and/or transaction security, the Security Agent is under an obligation to release such asset or guarantee upon request by the Company and will be entitled to do so without the consent of any other Finance Party. To the extent not otherwise provided for in the Intercreditor Agreement, the Transaction Security Documents will include assurances that the Security Agent will promptly enter into such documentation and/or take such other action as is required by the relevant Obligor (acting reasonably) in order to facilitate any such transaction, matter or other step, including by way of executing any confirmation, consent to dealing, release, discharge or other similar or equivalent document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. Information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if and, only to the extent, required by local law (including case law) to be provided to perfect or register the security and, that this information can be provided without breaching confidentiality requirements or

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 276 -<br>

Save as otherwise provided in these Agreed Security Principles, no notices of pledges or security interests will need to be delivered to third parties until a Declared Default has occurred unless, under the law applicable to such security, such notice is required to be delivered in order to grant the security but only if the relevant Obligor determines (acting in good faith) that the delivery of such notice will not jeopardise commercial relationships with third parties or otherwise force the relevant member of the Group or the Group to incur any material cost. Where such notice is required it shall be required to be served on the relevant counterparty within 10 Business Days of the security being granted and, if required by applicable law, the relevant Obligor shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 21 Business Days of service: If that Obligor has used its reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of material costs) to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 21 Business Days of service but has not been able to obtain such acknowledgement, its obligation to use reasonable endeavours to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of such 21 Business Day period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 277 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. Each Transaction Security Document will, to the extent legally possible, contain a clause which records that if there is a conflict between the Transaction Security Document and the Intercreditor Agreement or th is Agreement (including these Agreed Security Principles) then (to the extent permitted by law) the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement or th is Agreement (including these Agreed Security Principles) shall take priority over the provisions of the Transaction Security Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. The Transaction Security Documents will not accrue interest on any amount in respect of which interest is accruing under the Finance Documents .

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. There shall be no action required to be taken by any Obligor in relation to the guarantees or security when a secured party makes any transfer (and notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no member of the Group shall bear or otherwise be liable for any stamp or transfer taxes, any notarial, registration or perfection fees or any other costs, fees or expenses that result from any assignment or transfer).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. Each Transaction Security Document shall expressly provide that no Transaction Security is granted over or in respect of Excluded Assets.

"**Excluded Assets**" means:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) any asset or undertaking which a member of the Group is prohibited from creating security on or over by reason of any contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement which has been entered into with a third party on arms' length terms in relation to that asset or undertaking and which contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement is otherwise permitted or not prohibited by the terms of the Finance Documents (including any asset or undertaking which the member of the Group is precluded from creating security over without the prior consent of a third party), in each case to the extent of that prohibition and for so long as such prohibition is in existence or until consent has been received from the third party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) any asset or undertaking which a member of the Group is not prohibited from creating security on or over by the relevant contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement but which would, if subject to any security, give a third party the right under any contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement which has been entered into with a third party on arms' length terms in relation to that asset or undertaking and which contract, license, lease, instrument or other arrangement is otherwise permitted or not prohibited by the terms of the Finance Documents to amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of a member of the Group in respect of that asset or undertaking or require a member of the Group to take any action which, in each case, would be materially adverse to the interests of a member of the Group, in each case to the extent of that right and for so long as such right is in existence or until a waiver of the relevant term has been received from the third party;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) any asset or undertaking to the extent that any such security would be unlawful under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such asset or undertaking is situated (or would present a material risk of liability for any director or officer of a member of the Group or give rise to a material risk of breach of fiduciary or statutory duty by any such director or officer) **provided that** the relevant

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 278 -<br>

------

member of the Group has used its commercially reasonable efforts to overcome such obstacles, in each case to the extent of that unlawfulness or to the extent required to avoid the relevant liability or breach of duty and for so long as such unlawfulness, risk of liability or risk of breach of duty is in existence; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any asset that is not required to be or to become subject to Transaction Security in accordance with the Agreed Security Principles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;21. T o the extent these Agreed Security Principles or a Transaction Security Document provides for any actions, steps or consequences to occur when an Event of Default has occurred and/or is continuing (e.g. an obligation to provide information in respect of assets), no such consequence or action shall occur or be required if such Event of Default is in respect only of a breach of the Financial Covenant unless and until a cross-acceleration/default has occurred and is continuing in respect of such breach of Financial Covenant.

**Share Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;22. Where customary the share certificate (or other documents evidencing title to the relevant shares) and a stock transfer form executed in blank (or local law equivalent) will be provided to the Security Agent and where required by law the share certificate or shareholders register will be endorsed or written up and the endorsed share certificate or a copy of the written up register provided to the Security Agent within the time period to be agreed under the relevant Transaction Security Document. To the extent any relevant share certificates cannot be located, the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable efforts to obtain replacements. Any blank stock transfer form (or equivalent undated or blank document held by the Security Agent) may not be utilised by the Security Agent until a Declared Default has occurred and is continuing and the Security Agent has exercised the rights and remedies then available to it under the relevant Transaction Security Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;24. Share security will only be granted over shares in subsidiaries which are wholly owned by one or more members of the Group, **provided that** no share security will be granted over subsidiaries which are not Material Subsidiaries incorporated in a Security Jurisdiction whose shares cannot be secured in a global security agreement (such as an English law debenture or similar). The granting and perfection of such share security will be in accordance with these Agreed Security Principles.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;25. The Security Agent will not have any rights to vote any of the shares held by the Group which are pledged to them or to block any funds being transferred between Group members prior to the date on which a Declared Default has occurred.

**Bank Account Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 279 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;26. All security over bank accounts will permit the relevant obligor to operate those accounts freely without reference to the Security Agent prior to a Declared Default and, in particular, no obligor will be obliged to maintain a minimum (or positive) balance in any bank account at any time. Prior to the occurrence of a Declared Default, any Obligor shall be free to close any bank account at any time without any prior consent or notification requirement. An Obligor shall only be required to grant security over bank accounts located in its jurisdiction of incorporation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;27. If required by local law to create and/or perfect the security, notice of the security (including notice that the Obligor is free to deal with those accounts in the course of its business until revocation of such authorisation upon the occurrence of a Declared Default) will be served on the account bank within 5 Business Days of the security being granted and, if required by applicable law, the Obligor shall use its reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of material costs) to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 21 Business Days of service: If the Obligor has used its reasonable endeavours but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement, its obligation to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of such 21 Business Day period: Irrespective of whether notice of the security is required for perfection, if the service of notice would prevent the Obligor from using a bank account in the course of its business, no notice of the security shall be served until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;28. Any security over bank accounts shall be subject to any prior security interests and any other rights (including but not limited to set off rights) in favour of the account bank which are created either by law or in the standard terms and conditions of the account bank (from time to time). Any notice of security may request these are waived by the account bank, but neither the Obligor nor the account bank shall be required to change its banking arrangements if these security interests are not waived or only partially waived.

**Intra-Group Receivables Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;29. If an Obligor grants security over its intra-Group receivables, it shall be free to deal with those receivables in the course of its business or as otherwise permitted under the Finance Documents until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;30. If required by local law to perfect the security, notice of the security will be served on the relevant debtor within 5 Business Days of the security being granted and the relevant Obligor shall use its reasonable endeavours (not involving the payment of material costs) to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 21 Business Days of service. Irrespective of whether notice of the security is required for perfection, if the service of notice would prevent the Obligor from dealing with an intercompany receivable in the course of its business, no notice of security shall be served until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

**Fixed Assets Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;31. No security shall be granted over any fixed assets, plant, vehicles or equipment or equivalent, except pursuant to English law floating charge granted by an English Obligor .

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 280 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;32. No security shall be taken over any plant, vehicles or equipment if it would require any labelling, periodic listing, notification, specification or segregation of that plant, vehicles or equipment prior to an Event of Default that is continuing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;33. If an Obligor grants security over any of its material fixed assets pursuant to English law floating charge granted by an English Obligor , it shall be free to deal with those assets in the course of its business and as otherwise permitted under any Finance Document until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;34. No notice, whether to third parties or by attaching a notice to the fixed assets, shall be prepared or served until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

**Insurance Policies Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;35. No Obligor shall be required to grant any security over its insurance policies. No Obligor will be obliged to give notice to any insurance counterparty of any English law floating charge relating to its insurance policies and any insurance claims will be collected by the Obligor in the ordinary course of business until the occurrence of a Declared Default.

**Intellectual Property Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;36. No Obligor will be required to grant security over its intellectual property and it shall be free to deal with its intellectual property in the course of its business.

**Trade Receivables / Material Contracts**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;37. No Obligor will be required to grant security over its trade receivables or material companies and it shall be free to deal with its trade receivables in the course of its business.

**Real Estate**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;38. No Obligor will be required to grant security over its real estate and it shall be free to deal with real estate in the course of its business.

**Release of Security**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;39. If the Facilities are repaid and cancelled in full, the Agent and Security Agent will each be automatically authorised and instructed on behalf of the Finance Parties to irrevocably and unconditionally release: (i) the Obligors (and any of their affiliates otherwise party to the Finance Documents) from all their obligations and liabilities (whether present, future, actual or contingent) under the Finance Documents; and (ii) release all guarantees and security granted in connection with the Finance Documents and revoke any related power of attorney, in each case without any requirement for instructions, consent or authorisation from any other Finance Party.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;40. Unless required by local law, the circumstances in which the security shall be released should not be dealt with in individual Transaction Security Documents but, if so required, shall provide that security will be released in accordance with this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 281 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;41. The Security Agent will be authorised to release any asset which is not required to be subject to security.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(k) notwithstanding anything in this Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*) to the contrary, in the case of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance Indebtedness initially Incurred in reliance on a paragraph of section 1.2 of this Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*) measured by reference to a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA at the time of Incurrence, if such refinancing would cause the percentage of Consolidated EBITDA restriction to be exceeded if calculated based on the percentage of Consolidated EBITDA on the date of such refinancing, such percentage of Consolidated EBITDA restriction shall not be deemed to be exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced, plus premiums (including tender premiums), accrued and unpaid interest, defeasance, costs and fees in connection with such refinancing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.5 Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Stock or Disqualified Stock or the reclassification of commitments or obligations not treated as Indebtedness due to a change in the Applicable Accounting Principles will not be deemed to be an Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*). The amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be calculated as specified under the definition of "Indebtedness".

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.6 If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company as of such date.

(including tender premiums) and other costs and expenses (including original issue discount, upfront fees or similar fees) incurred in connection with such refinancing; (b) the euro equivalent of the aggregate principal amount of any such Indebtedness outstanding on the Closing Date shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Closing Date; and (c) if and for so long as any such Indebtedness is subject to a Currency Agreement with respect to the currency in which such Indebtedness is denominated covering principal and interest on such Indebtedness, the amount of such Indebtedness, if denominated in euro, will be the amount of the principal payment required to be made under such Currency Agreement and, otherwise, the euro equivalent of such amount plus the euro equivalent of any premium which is at such time due and payable but is not covered by such Currency Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.8 For purposes of determining "Consolidated EBITDA" and related definitions, ratios and Consolidated EBITDA based grower baskets under this Agreement, subject to Clause 26.3 (*Calculations*), Consolidated EBITDA shall be measured for the Company's most recently ended four fiscal quarters for which internal consolidated financial statements are available and have been delivered to the Agent (including, if the Company so elects, any relevant internal monthly financial statements) as at the time that the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries obtains new commitments (in the case of revolving facilities) or Incurs new Indebtedness (in the case of term facilities or other Indebtedness).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.9 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Schedule, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary may Incur pursuant to this Schedule shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness is denominated that is in effect on the date of such refinancing or such other relevant date of determination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.10 No Indebtedness will be deemed to be contractually subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of the Company or any Guarantor solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior Lien basis, secured on different collateral or guaranteed by different obligors.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.2 Any such Lien created in favor of the obligations under this Agreement pursuant to sub-clause (a)(2) of the preceding paragraph will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of the Initial Lien to which it relates and (ii) otherwise as set forth in this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement, any Additional Intercreditor Agreement and/or pursuant to the relevant Transaction Security Document.

With respect to any Lien securing Indebtedness that was permitted to secure such Indebtedness at the time of the Incurrence of such Indebtedness, such Lien shall also be permitted to secure any Increased Amount of such Indebtedness. The "Increased Amount" of any Indebtedness shall mean any increase in the amount of such Indebtedness in connection with any accrual of interest, the accretion of accreted value, the amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, accretion of original issue discount or liquidation preference, in each case with respect to such Indebtedness, and increases in the amount of Indebtedness resulting solely from fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies or increases in the value of property securing Indebtedness.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) an amount equal to 100.0 per cent. of the Net Available Cash from such Asset Disposition is applied by the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary within 18 months from the later of (A) the date of such Asset Disposition and (B) the receipt of such

**provided that**, in each case, to the extent that the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary has elected to prepay, repay or purchase any amount of Senior Secured Indebtedness and has extended such offer to the Lenders under Facility B on at least a *pro rata* basis, to the extent the creditors in respect of such Senior Secured Indebtedness (including any Lender under Facility B) elect not to tender their Senior Secured Indebtedness for such prepayment, repayment or purchase, the Company will be deemed to have applied an amount of Net Available

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 319 -<br>

------

Cash equal to such amount not tendered under this paragraph (a), and such amount shall not increase the amount of Excess Proceeds;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to invest in or commit to invest in Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with Net Available Cash received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary); **provided, however, that** any such reinvestment in Additional Assets earmarked by the Board of Directors of the Company or made pursuant to a definitive binding agreement or a commitment that is executed within such time will satisfy this requirement so long as such investment is in each case in good faith expected by the Company to be consummated within 180 days following the expiration of the aforementioned 18 months period;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects, to make any payment that is not prohibited by Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) any combination of the foregoing,

**provided that**, pending the final application of any such Net Available Cash in accordance with paragraphs (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries may temporarily reduce Indebtedness (including revolving Indebtedness) or otherwise use such Net Available Cash in any manner not prohibited by this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that (x) a distribution of any or all of the Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition by a Subsidiary to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary (to the extent necessary to comply with this Section 5 (*Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock*)) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law (including financial assistance and corporate benefit restrictions and fiduciary and statutory duties of the relevant directors) or gives rise to a risk of liability for a member of the Group and/or its directors or (y) a distribution of any or all of the Net Available Cash of any Asset Disposition by a Subsidiary to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary (to the extent necessary to comply with this covenant) could result in material adverse Tax consequences, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, the portion of such Net Available Cash so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with this Section 5 (*Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.3 Any Net Available Cash from Asset Dispositions that is not applied or invested or committed to be applied or invested as provided in the preceding paragraph within the applicable time period will be deemed to constitute "Excess Proceeds" under this Agreement. Within ten Business Days after the expiration of the applicable time period, or at such earlier date that the Company elects, if the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds in respect of an Asset Disposition under this Agreement exceeds the greater of €37.5 million and 25 per cent. of Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date of calculation, the Company will be required to make an offer ()"**Asset Disposition Offer**") to each Lender under Facility B and, to the extent the Company elects, to other holders of other outstanding Senior Secured Indebtedness,

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 320 -<br>

------

to, respectively, prepay participations in outstanding Facility B Loans (and only to the extent any Facility B Loans are outstanding) held by any such Lender at par, and to repay, prepay or purchase the maximum aggregate principal amount of such Senior Secured Indebtedness to which the Asset Disposition Offer applies that may be repaid, prepaid or purchased out of the Excess Proceeds, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repayment, prepayment or purchase, in accordance with the procedures set forth in the agreements governing such Senior Secured Indebtedness. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary may make an Asset Disposition Offer prior to the expiration of the applicable time period referred to above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.4 To the extent that the aggregate amount of Facility B Loans and Senior Secured Indebtedness so validly tendered and not properly withdrawn pursuant to an Asset Disposition Offer is less than the Excess Proceeds, the Company may use any remaining Excess Proceeds (the "**Declined Excess Proceeds**") for general corporate purposes, subject to other Sections contained in this Schedule (including, for the avoidance of doubt, if any Lender under Facility B or (if applicable) any holder of other outstanding Senior Secured Indebtedness subject to the Asset Disposition Offer has declined such Asset Disposition Offer). If the aggregate principal amount of the Facility B Loans to be repaid in any Asset Disposition Offer and other Senior Secured Indebtedness surrendered by holders or lenders, collectively, exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds shall be allocated among the Facility B Loans and Senior Secured Indebtedness to be repaid, prepaid or purchased on a *pro rata* basis on the basis of the aggregate principal amount of tendered Facility B Loans and Senior Secured Indebtedness. For the purposes of calculating the aggregate principal amount of any such Indebtedness not denominated in euro, such Indebtedness shall be calculated by converting any such aggregate principal amounts into their euro equivalent determined as of a date selected by the Company that is within the Asset Disposition Offer Period (as defined below). Upon completion of any Asset Disposition Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.5 To the extent that any portion of Net Available Cash payable in respect of any Facility B Loan is denominated in a currency other than euro, the amount thereof payable in respect of such Facility B Loans shall not exceed the net amount of funds in euro that is actually received by the Company upon converting such portion into euro. For the avoidance of doubt there shall be no requirement to offer or apply any Excess Proceeds in prepayment of any Revolving Facility.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.6 The Asset Disposition Offer, in so far as it relates to the Facility B Loans, will remain open for a period of not less than 20 Business Days following its commencement (the "**Asset Disposition Offer Period** "). No later than five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period, the Company will repay (or procure the repayment of) the aggregate principal amount of participations in the Facility B Loans to be repaid and, to the extent it elects, Senior Secured Indebtedness required to be repaid, prepaid or purchased pursuant to this Section 5 (*Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock*) (the "**Asset Disposition Offer Amount**") or, if less than the Asset Disposition Offer Amount has been so validly tendered, all participations in Facility B Loans and Senior Secured Indebtedness validly tendered in response to the Asset Disposition Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall be permitted to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) delay the repayment of any participations in the Facility B Loans until the last day of the first Interest Period ending at least five Business Days after the termination of the Asset Disposition Offer Period for the Facility B Loan to be repaid; and/or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) delay any repayment, prepayment or purchase of Senior Secured Indebtedness on a consistent or equivalent basis.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.7 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without prejudice to any other allowances or baskets in respect thereof, (i) only 50 per cent. of what would otherwise constitute Excess Proceeds from any individual Asset Disposition will constitute Excess Proceeds if at the time of determining Excess Proceeds from such Asset Disposition, the Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio on a *pro forma* basis, after giving effect to such Asset Disposition and any application of the Net Available Cash therefrom as set forth herein, would not exceed 6.00 to 1.00 and (ii) 0 per cent. of what would otherwise constitute Excess Proceeds from any individual Asset Disposition will constitute Excess Proceeds if at the time of determining Excess Proceeds from such Asset Disposition, the Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio on a *pro forma* basis, after giving effect to such Asset Disposition and any application of the Net Available Cash therefrom as set forth herein, would not exceed 5.50 to 1.00. Any amount not constituting Excess Proceeds in accordance with this paragraph may be used by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5.8 For the purposes of paragraph (b) of section 5.1 of this Section 5 (*Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock*), the following will be deemed to be cash:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Subordinated Indebtedness of the Company or a

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate value in excess of the greater of €30 million and 20 per cent. of Consolidated EBITDA, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) either the Company is the surviving entity or the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the "**Successor Company**") will be a Person organized and existing under the laws of any member state of the European Union or the United States of America, any State of the United States or the District of Columbia, Canada or any province of Canada, Norway, the United Kingdom or Switzerland (**provided that** all Lenders in the relevant Facility to which the Successor Company (if it is not the Company and if it is not incorporated under the laws of the same jurisdiction as an existing Borrower under that Facility or any other Permitted Jurisdiction) shall accede as a Borrower, approve the addition of such Successor Company (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) and the Successor Company (if not the Company) will expressly assume (a) by way of an Accession Deed together with any customary guarantee limitations language, executed and delivered to the Agent, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Agent, all the obligations of the Company under the Finance Documents and (b) all obligations of the Company under the Transaction Security Documents (and, to the extent required by the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or such Additional Intercreditor Agreement);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.3 The Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Company under the Finance Documents (with the release of the Company from any and all obligations thereunder) but in the case of a lease of all or substantially all its assets, the predecessor company will not be released from its obligations under the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.6 The foregoing provisions will not apply to the creation of a new subsidiary of the Company that becomes a parent of one or more of the Company's Subsidiaries.

***Guarantors***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.7 No Guarantor may:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) consolidate with or merge with or into any Person;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person expressly assumes all of the obligations of the Guarantor under this Agreement and the Transaction Security Documents (and, to the extent required by the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or such Additional Intercreditor Agreement); and immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no Default has occurred and is continuing; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) the transaction constitutes a sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger) of the Guarantor or the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Guarantor (in each case other than to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) otherwise not prohibited by the Finance Documents.

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 329 -<br>

For the avoidance of doubt, any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Company or a Guarantor) may consolidate or otherwise combine with, merge into, liquidate or dissolve into or transfer all or part of its properties and assets to any other such Restricted Subsidiary.

***General***

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7.9 This Section 7 (*Merger and Consolidation*) will not apply to any transaction or arrangement pursuant to (i) any Permitted Reorganization, or (ii) a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company transferring all or part of its properties and assets to the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary of the Company in order to comply with any law, rule, regulation or order, recommendation or direction of, or agreement with, any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Company and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.2 A Non-Guarantor Subsidiary may become a Guarantor if it executes and delivers to the Agent an Accession Deed and complies with the requirements of Clause 31.4 (*Additional Guarantors*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to cause such Restricted Subsidiary to Guarantee the Obligors' obligations under the Finance Documents to the extent the Agreed Security Principles so provide or to the extent and for so long as the Incurrence of such Loan Guarantee could reasonably be expected to

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 330 -<br>

------

give rise to or result in: (1) any breach or violation of applicable law or regulation (including statutory limitations, corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference, thin capitalization rules and capital maintenance rules) or the laws, rules or regulations (or any analogous restriction) of any applicable jurisdiction; (2) any risk or liability for the officers, directors or (except in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a partnership) shareholders of such Restricted Subsidiary (or, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that is a partnership, directors or shareholders of the partners of such partnership); (3) any cost, expense, liability or obligation (including with respect to any Taxes) other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and other than reasonable expenses Incurred in connection with any governmental or regulatory filings required as a result of, or any measures pursuant to sub-clause (1) of this paragraph undertaken in connection with, such Loan Guarantee, which in any case under any of sub-clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this paragraph cannot be avoided through measures reasonably available to the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary; or (4) an inconsistency with the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. **RESERVED** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. **DESIGNATION OF UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARIES** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.1 The Company may designate any Subsidiary of the Company, including any newly acquired or newly formed Subsidiary or a Person becoming a Subsidiary through merger, consolidation or other business combination transaction, or Investment therein but excluding the Company to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary only if:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) such designation and the Investment of the Company in such Subsidiary complies Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule *.* 

Any such designation by the Board of Directors of the Company shall be evidenced to the Agent by filing with the Agent a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company giving effect to such designation or a certificate (signed by a director or senior officer of the Company) certifying that such designation complies with the foregoing conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10.2 The Company may designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary; **provided, that** immediately after giving effect to such designation (1) no Default or Event of Default would result therefrom and (2)(x) the Company could Incur at least €1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to section 1.1 of Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*) of Schedule or (y) the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio would not be higher than it was immediately prior to giving effect to such designation, in each case, on a *pro forma* basis taking into account such designation.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.2 At the direction of the Company and without the consent of Lenders, the Agent and the Security Agent shall from time to time enter into one or more amendments to any Intercreditor Agreement or Additional Intercreditor Agreement to: (1) cure any ambiguity, omission, defect, manifest error or inconsistency of any such agreement, (2) increase the amount or types of Indebtedness covered by any such agreement that may be Incurred by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary that is subject to any such agreement (including with respect to any Intercreditor Agreement or Additional Intercreditor Agreement, the addition of provisions relating to new Indebtedness ranking senior or *pari passu* or junior in right of payment to the Facilities), (3) add Restricted Subsidiaries to the Intercreditor Agreement or an Additional Intercreditor Agreement, (4) further secure the Facilities (including Incremental Facilities), (5) make provision for senior, equal and ratable or junior pledges of the Collateral to secure Incremental Facilities, (6) implement any Permitted Collateral Liens, (7) amend the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof or (8) make any other change to any such agreement that does not adversely affect the Lenders (taken as a whole) in any material respect, making all necessary provisions to ensure that the Facilities are secured by first-ranking Liens over the Collateral. the Company shall not otherwise direct the Agent or the Security Agent to enter into any amendment to any Intercreditor Agreement or Additional Intercreditor Agreement without the consent of the requisite majority of Lenders except as otherwise permitted pursuant to Clause 41 (*Amendments and Waivers*) and the Company may only direct the Agent and the Security Agent to enter into any amendment to the extent such amendment does not impose any personal obligations on the Agent or Security Agent or, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent or Security Agent, adversely affect their respective rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Agreement or the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.3 In relation to any Intercreditor Agreement or Additional Intercreditor Agreement, the Agent (and Security Agent, if applicable) shall consent on behalf of the requisite

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 332 -<br>

majority of Lenders to the payment, repayment, purchase, repurchase, defeasance, acquisition, retirement or redemption of any obligations subordinated to the Loans thereby; **provided, however, that** such transaction would comply with the covenant described under Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11.4 Each Finance Party shall be deemed to have agreed to and accepted the terms and conditions of the Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Intercreditor Agreement, (whether then entered into or entered into in the future pursuant to the provisions described herein) and to have directed the Agent and the Security Agent to enter into any such Additional Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. **[RESERVED]** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13. **SUSPENSION OF COVENANTS ON ACHIEVEMENT OF INVESTMENT GRADE STATUS OR SATISFACTION OF THE RELEASE CONDITION** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.1 Following the first date that the Facilities have achieved Investment Grade Status or the Release Condition has been satisfied then, beginning on that day and continuing until the Reversion Date (as defined below) (such period, the "**Suspension Period** "):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) the requirement to make mandatory prepayments under Clause 12.2 (*Partial prepayment – Excess Cashflow*) shall be suspended and shall not apply;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) the financial covenant in Clause 26.1 (*Financial condition*) shall only be tested semi-annually (for the Relevant Periods ending on the second and fourth Quarter Dates in each Financial Year) if the Test Condition is met on such second and fourth Quarter Dates in each Financial Year and the Test Condition will only apply to such second and fourth Quarter Dates;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) the amount of each basket set by reference to a monetary amount for which a specific amount is set out in this Agreement and any definitions used therein (including all "annual", "life of Facilities" and "at any time" and "aggregate" baskets) shall be increased by 50 per cent. (and any reference to a percentage of Consolidated EBITDA in such basket shall be increased accordingly);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) paragraph (a) of Clause 27.8 (*Conditions subsequent*) shall cease to apply and all Transaction Security shall be released; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) the Company and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be subject to the provisions of this Schedule 16 summarized under the following headings:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii) Section 5 (*Limitation on Sales of Assets and Subsidiary Stock*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iv) Section 6 (*Limitation on Affiliate Transactions*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v) The provisions of paragraph (c) of section 7.1 of Section 7 (*Merger and Consolidation*); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 333 -<br>

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(vi) Section 8 (*Additional Guarantees*),

(collectively, the "**Suspended Covenants**").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.2 If at any time the Facilities cease to have such Investment Grade Status or item (b) of the Release Condition ceases to be satisfied, then the Suspended Covenants will thereafter be reinstated as if such covenants had never been suspended (the "**Reversion Date**") and will be applicable pursuant to the terms this Agreement (including in connection with performing any calculation or assessment to determine compliance with the terms of this Agreement), unless and until the Facilities subsequently attain Investment Grade Status or item (b) of the Release Condition is satisfied again (in which event the Suspended Covenants shall no longer be in effect for such time that the Facilities maintain an Investment Grade Status or, in the case of the satisfaction of the Release Condition, until the Termination Date); **provided, however, that** no Default, Event of Default or breach of any kind shall be deemed to exist under the Finance Documents with respect to the Suspended Covenants based on, and none of the Company or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries shall bear any liability with respect to such Suspended Covenants for, any actions taken or events occurring during the Suspension Period, or any actions taken at any time pursuant to any contractual obligation arising prior to the Reversion Date, regardless of whether such actions or events would have been permitted if the applicable Suspended Covenants remained in effect during such period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.3 On the Reversion Date, all Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period (other than any Indebtedness Incurred under any Revolving Facility) will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Closing Date so that it is classified as permitted under paragraph (d)(ii) of section 1.2 of Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*) of this Schedule. On and after the Reversion Date, all Liens created during the Suspension Period will be considered Permitted Liens pursuant to item (m) of such definition included in Section 15 (*Defined Terms*). Calculations made after the Reversion Date of the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule will be made as though Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule had been in effect since the Closing Date and prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period. Accordingly, Restricted Payments made during the Suspension Period will not reduce the amount available to be made as Restricted Payments under Section 2 (*Limitation on Restricted Payments*) of this Schedule. On the Reversion Date, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero. Any Affiliate Transaction entered into after the Reversion Date pursuant to an agreement entered into during any Suspension Period will be deemed to have been outstanding on the Closing Date, so that it is classified as permitted under paragraph (f) of section 6.2 of Section 6 (*Limitation on Affiliate Transactions*) of this Schedule. On and after each Reversion Date, the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to consummate the transactions contemplated by any contract entered into during the Suspension Period, so long as such contract and such consummation would have been permitted during such Suspension Period.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;13.4 In respect of any amount which has not been applied in mandatory prepayment of the Facilities in accordance with Clause 12 (*Mandatory Prepayment and Cancellation*) as a result of the Release Condition being satisfied (the "**Released Amounts** "), if the Release Condition subsequently ceases to be satisfied after the date on which the prepayment would have been required had the Release Condition not been satisfied,

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 334 -<br>

------

there is no obligation to prepay the Released Amounts and such non-prepayment of the Released Amounts shall not result in a breach of any term of this Agreement or any other Finance Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14. **MEASURING COMPLIANCE** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;14.1 With respect to any transaction (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any Incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock or Liens, the making of any Investment, Restricted Payment or Permitted Payment, any Asset Disposition or other disposition, any acquisition, merger, consolidation, amalgamation or other business combination or any other transaction requiring the testing of any basket based on the Consolidated EBITDA of the Company) (each, an "**Applicable Transaction** "), for purposes of determining:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) whether any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) that is being Incurred in connection with such Applicable Transaction is permitted to be Incurred in compliance with Section 1 (*Limitation on Indebtedness*);

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) whether any Lien being Incurred in connection with such Applicable Transaction or to secure any such Indebtedness being Incurred in connection with such Applicable Transaction is permitted to be Incurred in compliance with Section 3 (*Limitation on Liens*) or the definition of "Permitted Liens" or "Permitted Collateral Liens";

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) whether any other transaction undertaken or proposed to be undertaken in connection with such Applicable Transaction complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) any calculation of any basket, ratio, threshold or other condition or any financial definition or other amount which falls to be determined in connection with such Applicable Transaction, including Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income, Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio and/or Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and whether a Default or Event of Default exists in connection with the foregoing;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(e) at the option of the Company, (x) the date that the definitive agreement or commitment (including pursuant to a put option agreement) for such Applicable Transaction is entered into (or, if applicable, the date of delivery of an irrevocable notice, declaration of a Restricted Payment, the making of a Restricted Payment or similar event, (y) the date of Incurrence of any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness) in connection with such Applicable Transaction or (z) the date of completion of such Applicable Transaction (such date as so elected, the "**Applicable Test Date** "), may be used as the applicable date of determination, as the case may be, in each case with such pro forma adjustments as are appropriate and consistent with the pro forma adjustment provisions set forth in the definition of "Consolidated EBITDA" or "Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio"; **provided that** (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent fiscal quarters or months shall have become available, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-determine all such ratios, tests or baskets on the basis of such financial statements, in which

&nbsp;&nbsp;- 335 -<br>

------

case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the Applicable Test Date for purposes of such ratios, tests or baskets, (b) except as contemplated in the foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, tests or baskets (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the Applicable Test Date for such Applicable Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto and (c) Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as reasonably determined by the Company in good faith.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) until such Applicable Transaction is consummated or such definitive agreement is terminated, such Applicable Transaction and all transactions proposed to be undertaken in connection therewith (including the Incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens) will be given *pro forma* effect when determining compliance of other transactions (including the Incurrence of Indebtedness and Liens unrelated to such Applicable Transaction) that are consummated after the Applicable Test Date and on or prior to the date of consummation of such Applicable Transaction, and any such transactions (including any Incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) will be deemed to have occurred on the Applicable Test Date and deemed to be outstanding thereafter for purposes of calculating any baskets or ratios under this Agreement after the Applicable Test Date and before the date of consummation of such Applicable Transaction; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.

If a Default occurs for a failure to deliver a required certificate in connection with another default (an "**Initial Default**") then at the time such Initial Default is cured, such Default for a failure to report or deliver a required certificate in connection with the Initial Default will also be cured without any further action and (ii) any Default or Event of Default for the failure to comply with the time periods prescribed in Schedule 15 (*Information Undertakings*) or otherwise to deliver any notice or certificate pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be cured upon the delivery of any such report required by Schedule 15 (*Information Undertakings*) or notice or certificate, as applicable, even though such delivery is not within the prescribed period specified in this Agreement.

Execution Version

from the 2025 Closing Date each Incremental Term Facility A Lender hereby agrees to become (if not already) a Lender and assume Incremental Facility Commitments in the amounts set out set opposite its name under the heading "Incremental Term Facility A Commitment" in Schedule 1 (*Incremental Facility Lenders*) (each a "**Term Facility A Commitment**" and together the "**Term Facility A Commitments**"), constituting a new Incremental Term Facility (the "**Term Facility A**" and each Loan under the Term Facility A being a "**Term Facility A Loan**"). The Term Facility A is designated as a Term Facility for the purposes of the Facilities Agreement. In the case of Banque Nomura France its existing Original Revolving Facility Commitments as of the date hereof (prior to giving effect to this Agreement) are on the 2025 Closing Date redesignated as and shall become its Term Facility A Commitment with the effect that its Original Revolving Facility Commitments become 0 as of the 2025 Closing Date after giving effect to this Agreement. Notwithstanding such redesignation the accrued commitment fee payable to Banque Nomura France as of the 2025 Closing Date shall be paid on the next Commitment Fee Payment Date following the 2025 Closing Date (or if the 2025 Closing Date is a Commitment Fee Payment Date on the 2025 Closing Date).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4. Each Incremental Facility Lender agrees to assume and will assume all of the obligations corresponding to its Relevant Commitments as if it was an Original Lender under the Facilities Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;5. The date on which the assumption by each Incremental Facility Lender of its Relevant Commitments is to take effect (the "**Assumption Date**") is the 2025 Closing Date. The 2025 Closing Date is the Incremental Facility Commitment Date for the Term Facility A and the date on which the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments become effective . This Agreement is accepted as an Incremental Facility Notice for the purposes of the Facilities Agreement by the Agent, and as a Creditor/Agent Accession Undertaking for the purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement by the Security Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;6. On the Assumption Date, each Incremental Facility Lender becomes (to the extent it is not already):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) party to the relevant Finance Documents (other than the Intercreditor Agreement) as a Lender; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) party to the Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior Lender.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;7. The Term Facility A, the Term Facility A Commitments and the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments will rank pari passu with the other Facilities and Commitments, respectively and the Company certifies to the Agent and Security Agent that they (and their terms and conditions and ranking and status for the purposes of the Intercreditor Agreement) are not prohibited under any Finance Document (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) and otherwise comply with the requirements (if any) of the then existing Finance Documents (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement) relating thereto. The Term Facility A is and the Original Revolving Facility remains a Senior Facility under and as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement (and designated by the Company as such) and the Company confirms that the establishment of Term Facility A and the Incremental Facility

Execution Version

Commitments complies with Clause 2.2 (*Incremental Facility*) of the Facilities Agreement and with Clause 2.7 (*Additional and/or Refinancing Debt*) and Clause 18 (*New Debt Financings*) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;8. The terms set out in Schedule 2 (*Term Facility A Terms*) shall apply in relation to the Term Facility A. The terms set out in Schedule 3 (*Incremental Revolving Facility Terms*) shall apply in relation to the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments and the Original Revolving Facility. The terms set out in Schedule 4 (*Financial Covenant*) shall apply solely in relation to the Term Facility A and the Original Revolving Facility and are additional terms relating to these Facilities so that Clause 26 (*Financial Covenant*) of the Facilities Agreement is not deemed amended . Each Incremental Facility Lender including each Existing Revolving Facility Lender consents to the amendments to the Facilities Agreement in Schedule 3 (*Incremental Revolving Facility Terms*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;9. The Agent confirms that it has completed all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks in relation to each Incremental Facility Lender for the purposes of Clause 2.2 (*Incremental Facility*) of the Facilities Agreement. The Agent shall promptly confirm in writing to the Company when it has received (or waived) all of the applicable documents and other evidence listed in Schedule 6 (*Conditions*) in form and substance satisfactory to it, acting reasonably, and each of the other applicable conditions referred to in Schedule 6 (*Conditions*) have been satisfied (or waived) in form and substance satisfactory to it, acting reasonably (such conditions collectively the "**Conditions** "). Notwithstanding any other provision of the Facilities Agreement no other conditions are applicable to the advance of the Term Facility A Loan on the 2025 Closing Date. The parties acknowledge that the intention is for such confirmation to be issued on the 2025 Closing Date, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;10. The Facility Office and address, electronic email address and attention details for notices for each Incremental Facility Lender for the purposes of Clause 37.2 (*Addresses*) of the Facilities Agreement are set out in Schedule 5 (*Lender confirmations*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;11. Each Incremental Facility Lender expressly acknowledges the limitations on the Lenders' obligations referred to in paragraph (f) of Clause 2.2 (*Incremental Facility*).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;12. With reference to clause 21 (*Changes to the Parties*) of the Intercreditor Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Each Incremental Facility Lender confirms that, as from the 2025 Closing Date, it intends to be party to the Intercreditor Agreement as a Senior Lender (as defined therein), and undertakes to perform all the obligations expressed in the Intercreditor Agreement to be assumed by a Senior Lender (as defined therein) and agrees that it shall be bound by all the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreement, as if it had been an original party to the Intercreditor Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The undertakings contained in this Agreement have been entered into on the date stated above.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) execute a power of attorney in favour of the Security Agent, as applicable, for any action to be carried out in Spain under the instructions received in accordance with the Spanish Security Documents; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) take any action or appear in any proceeding in Spain, as may be required by the Security Agent, as applicable, to enforce the Security created under the Spanish Security Documents and, to such effect, follow the instructions received from each of them.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) Without prejudice to the above, the Security Agent, acting at its discretion and to the extent reasonably possible, may invite the Incremental Facility Lenders (in their capacity as Secured Parties under the Intercreditor Agreement) to enter into and/or to enforce the rights of each Spanish Security Document, each Assignment Agreement, each Transfer Certificate and each Exchange Accession Certificate (as this term is defined in the Exchange Agreement) jointly with the Security Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, this does include the granting of any right to each Incremental Facility Lender (in its capacity as Secured Party under the Intercreditor Agreement) to enter into and/or to enforce the rights under each such document jointly with the Security Agent.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Each Incremental Facility Lender (in its capacity as Secured Party under the Intercreditor Agreement) (other than the Security Agent) hereby undertakes to the Security Agent that, promptly upon request, such Incremental Facility Lender (in its capacity as Secured Party under the Intercreditor Agreement) will ratify and confirm all transactions entered into and other actions by the Security Agent (or any of its substitutes or delegates) in the proper exercise of the power granted to it hereunder.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Notwithstanding paragraph (e) above, an Incremental Facility Lender (in its capacity as Secured Party under the Intercreditor Agreement) (other than the Security Agent) that has notified the Security Agent that it cannot authorise or empower, or has not authorised or empowered, the Security Agent to act on its behalf, irrevocably undertakes to the Security Agent and the other Secured Parties to appear and execute with the Security Agent to enable the Security Agent to exercise any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Security Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement and to execute any document or instrument including any Spanish Public Document.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;15. Without prejudice of the security extensions to be delivered in accordance with paragraph (9)(f)(v) of Schedule 6 (*Conditions*) to this Incremental Facility Notice, for the purposes of

Article 1,528 of the Spanish Civil Code, the Incremental Facility Lenders and the Company agree that any guarantee, security or indemnity granted under the Debt Documents (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), together with all rights and remedies arising thereunder, shall be maintained in full force and effected, and preserved for the benefit of the Incremental Facility Lenders.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;16. Each TLA Lender and each RCF Lender (including the Incremental Facility Lenders) shall provide to the Company, on or before the 2025 Closing Date (in the case of any Incremental Facility Lender) or the date that such Lender acquires a Term Facility A Commitment or Revolving Facility Commitment (in the case of any other such Lender) and from time to time thereafter promptly upon the reasonable request of the Company, a valid and properly executed (a) IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) establishing an exemption for such Lender from US backup withholding or (b) IRS Form W-8 (or successor form) wherein such Lender claims entitlement to a complete exemption from US federal withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be received pursuant to the Finance Documents (as if such payments were US source). The Agent shall provide to the Company, on or before the 2025 Closing Date (in the case of the Agent on such date) or the date that such Agent becomes the Agent (in the case of any other Agent) and from time to time thereafter promptly upon the reasonable request of the Company, both with respect to payments received by the Agent for its own account and with respect to payments received by the Agent for the account of others, a valid and properly executed IRS Form W-9 (or successor form) establishing an exemption for such Agent from US backup withholding or IRS Form W-8 (or successor form). If the Agent does not provide an IRS Form W-9 or W-8ECI (or successor form), the Agent hereby represents and warrants that any fees received by it in connection with any Facility are not for personal services performed in the United States (within the meaning of Section 861 of the Code or related US Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder). If a Lender or the Agent becomes aware that any documentation provided pursuant to this paragraph 14 is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, or upon the request of the Company upon any such documentation expiring or becoming obsolete, the applicable Lender or Agent shall promptly update such documentation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any TLA Lender or RCF Lender that fails to comply with this paragraph 14 shall not be entitled to any indemnification or gross-up in respect of Term Facility A or any Revolving Facility for any Taxes (including, for this purpose, any US backup withholding) attributable to such failure to comply.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;17. In this paragraph 15 "**Transaction**" means the sale of shares in the Company to Libertad Especia, S.L.U. (the "**Purchaser** "**)** pursuant to a share and purchase agreement dated 29 March 2024 between the Purchaser, Global Racing LX1 S.a r.I., Global Racing LX2 S.a r.l. and certain managers of the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) The RCF Lenders and the TLA Lenders agree to waive and undertake not to exercise in full their rights set out under Clause 12.1 (*Exit*) of the Facilities Agreement as a result of the occurrence of a Change of Control arising due to the completion of the Transaction and agrees to the disapplication of Clause 12.1(a)(iii) in relation to such Change of Control and their obligations such that they agree to and shall be obliged to fund participations in any Utilisation that would have been obliged to have been funded

but for the operation of Clause 12.1(a)(iii) in relation to such Change of Control, subject to Clauses 4, 5 and 6 of the Facilities Agreement. The agreement in this paragraph 15 is irrevocable and will bind each RCF Lenders and each TLA Lender and their permitted transferees or assignees.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;b) The above consents and waivers, when and if granted, are effective only in the instance and for the purpose for which they are given. Therefore, no failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Finance Party, any right or remedy under the Finance Documents relating to any circumstance not waived in accordance with this letter, nor anything else which any Finance Party has, or may have, agreed or done or may in the future agree to do (including any receipt and/or acceptance of any sum payable under the Finance Documents) does, will or is intended, unless the relevant Finance Party provide an express written waiver in accordance with the terms of the Facilities Agreement, to operate as a waiver of any Event of Default, any Default, any of the Company's obligations or any right or remedy of any Finance Party, 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, all such rights and remedies being hereby reserved.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;18. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of this Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;19. This Agreement shall be formalised as a Spanish Public Document on the 2025 Closing Date, so that it may have the status of a public document and for all purposes contemplated in Article 517, number 4 of the Spanish Civil Procedural.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a) Upon enforcement, the sum payable by a Spanish Obligor shall be the aggregate amount of the balance of the accounts maintained by the Agent (or the relevant Lender, as the case may be) pursuant to Clause 38.1 (*Accounts*) of the Facilities Agreement.

Such Lender may issue the appropriate certification of the balances of the relevant account(s) referred to in paragraph (a) of this paragraph 17 and the certification of the balances of such accounts may be legalised by a notary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;d) The amount of the balances determined in accordance with this paragraph 17 shall be notified to the relevant Spanish Obligor in an attestable manner at least three (3) days in advance of exercising any executive action.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;e) The Borrower hereby authorises the Agent (and each Lender, as appropriate) to request and obtain certificates and documents issued by the notary which has formalised this Incremental Facility Notice in order to evidence its compliance with the entries of his registry-book and the relevant entry date for the purpose of number 4 of Article 517, of the Spanish Civil Procedural Law. The cost of such certificate and documents will be for the account of the Borrower.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;20. Notwithstanding paragraph 17 above, this Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by English law.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2 **Financial condition** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In this Agreement, "**Test Condition**" means on any Test Date, either (A) there are any Term Facility A Loans outstanding or (B) the aggregate Base Currency Amount of all outstanding Revolving Facility Loans and any principal Ancillary Outstandings in cash (excluding (i) any Revolving Facility Loans made available on the Closing Date (including Rollover Loans thereof) or after the Closing Date in connection with the financing or refinancing of any post closing payments (including Rollover Loans thereof), (ii) any Revolving Facility Loans to finance or refinance any original issue discount, fees, costs and expenses or the exercise of flex provisions (including Rollover Loans thereof), (iii) any Revolving Facility Loans to finance or refinance any capital expenditure or Permitted Investments (including Rollover Loans thereof) except that to the extent the aggregate outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Facility Loans that are used to finance or refinance capital expenditure or Permitted Investments exceeds the greater of €60,000,000 and 40% of Consolidated EBITDA, only the excess amount shall be taken into account for purpose of assessing the Test Condition and (iv) for the avoidance of doubt, any Letters of Credit (or bank guarantees) or Ancillary Outstandings (other than the aggregate outstanding principal amount of any net cash drawings of such Ancillary Facilities)) net of cash or Cash Equivalents is greater than 40 per cent. of the Total Revolving Facility Commitments as at 5.00pm on that Test Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Subject to paragraph (c) and Clause 1.2 below and the expiry of the cure period referred to therein, if in respect of any Relevant Period ending on or after the first Test Date falling after the 2025 Closing Date and for which it is tested, the Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as set out in the applicable Compliance Certificate exceeds 9.0:1.0 (the "**Adjusted Financial Covenant**") the Agent may, and shall if so directed by the Super Majority TLA/RCF Lenders, by notice to the Company: (i) cancel the Total TLA/RCF Commitments and any Ancillary Commitments at which time they shall immediately be cancelled ; and/or (ii) require all or part of the TLA/RCF Loans and any other Revolving Facility Utilisations to be immediately prepaid in which case the Company must immediately prepay or procure the prepayment of such TLA/RCF Loans and any other Revolving Facility Utilisations or the relevant part thereof notified by the Agent (such rights to cancel such Commitments and/or require all or part of such Loans and Utilisations to be prepaid, the "**Financial Covenant Prepayment Rights** ").

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) shall only remain in force from the date of this Agreement for so long as any amount is outstanding under a Revolving Facility or Term Facility A or any TLA/RCF Facility Commitment is in force; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) will not apply (and the Adjusted Financial Covenant shall not be required to be tested) if the Test Condition is not met on the relevant Test Date; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(d) The first Test Date for determining whether the Test Condition is met for the purposes of this Schedule 4 will be the first Test Date falling after the 2025 Closing Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3 **Equity Cure** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) In this Schedule 4 non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant means Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio in respect of the applicable Relevant Period exceeding 9.0:1.0 and compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant means Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio in respect of the applicable Relevant Period not exceeding 9.0:1.0. The Financial Covenant Prepayment Rights shall not apply in relation to a non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant where such non-compliance is cured or prevented in accordance with and within the timeframes set out in this Clause 1.2.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Company may cure or prevent non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant if no later than 20 Business Days after the date on which the Compliance Certificate in respect of the applicable Relevant Period for which Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio exceeds 9.0:1.0 is required to be delivered:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) the Company or the applicable Borrowers procure that sufficient Term Facility A Loans and/or Revolving Facility Loans and/or Ancillary Outstandings are repaid or prepaid or otherwise reduced such that the Test Condition is no longer met (and the Test Condition shall then be deemed not to have been met on the applicable Quarter Date) (a "**Prepayment Cure** "); and/or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) signed by an Officer of the Company; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) certifying the Cure Amount received.

Execution Version

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(c) Immediately following the provision of the Cure Amount to the Company, the Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio shall be recalculated for the Relevant Period in which such non-compliance occurred on a *pro forma* basis whereby (at the option of the Company):

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i) Consolidated EBITDA will be increased by the Cure Amount injected for the Relevant Period (an "**EBITDA Cure** "); or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(ii) Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage will be decreased by the Cure Amount injected for the Relevant Period (a "**Debt Cure**" and, together with an EBITDA Cure and a Prepayment Cure, the "**Cure Rights** "),

**provided that**, in relation to any such Cure Amount so provided in accordance with this Clause 1.2:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(A) the Company shall not be entitled to exercise;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) any Cure Rights it may have to prevent or cure non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant on more than five occasions in aggregate after the date of this Agreement; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(B) there shall be no requirement to apply any Cure Amount in prepayment of the Facilities;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(C) for the avoidance of doubt, any Cure Amount may exceed the amount actually needed to remedy any non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(D) any Cure Amount so provided and any adjustments to Consolidated Senior Secured Leverage or Consolidated EBITDA (as applicable) will be taken into account for the Relevant Period in respect of which the non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant would have otherwise occurred and each of the next three (3) successive Relevant Periods; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(E) Cure Amounts may only be taken into account to remedy non-compliance with the Adjusted Financial Covenant (and if applicable the Financial Covenant under the Facilities Agreement) and for no other purpose, and in particular, no Cure Amount shall constitute an Excluded Contribution or Retained Cash for any purpose under the Facilities Agreement or (whilst Consolidated EBITDA is being increased by that Cure Amount) be taken into account as cash for the purpose of calculating Consolidated Net Senior Secured Leverage Ratio.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Facilities Agreement any amendment or waiver which has the effect of changing or which relates to this Agreement shall not be effected without (and may be effected with) the consent of the Majority TLA/RCF Lenders (and the consent of no other Finance Party is required).

**Schedule 6**

**Conditions** 

Capitalised terms in this Schedule 6 and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the same meaning as specified with respect thereto in the Commitment Letter dated April 26, 2024 entered into by the Libertad Especia, S.L.U. ("**Bidco**") and the Incremental Facility Lenders party thereto in their capacities as "Commitment Parties" and/or "Arrangers" thereunder (the "**Commitment Parties**" or the "**Arrangers**", as applicable) in relation to the Incremental Facility Commitments established under this Agreement.

The following are the Conditions for the purposes of this Agreement:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.The Acquisition shall have been consummated in accordance with the terms of the Acquisition Agreement, without giving effect to any waiver, amendment, supplement or modification by Bidco or LMC (or any of its affiliates), and no consent or request by Bidco or LMC or any of its subsidiaries shall have been provided under the Acquisition Agreement, in each case, which is materially adverse to the interests of the Arrangers or the Commitment Parties without the Arrangers' prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that (a) any decrease in the purchase price shall not be materially adverse to the interests of the Arrangers or the Commitment Parties to the extent the cash consideration portion of any such reduction (if any) is applied to reduce any Permanent Financing and/or the Bridge Facility, as selected by LMC, on a dollar-for-dollar basis and (b) any increase in the purchase price equal to or greater than 10% of the purchase price shall be deemed materially adverse to the interests of the Arrangers or the Commitment Parties unless such increase is not financed with indebtedness issued or incurred by the Group or Bidco.

2. The Arrangers shall have received (i) the Annual Financial Statements (as defined and to the extent required by the Facilities Agreement) of the Company for (x) the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and (y) each subsequent fiscal year ended at least 180 days prior to the 2025 Closing Date and (ii) the Quarterly Financial Statements (as defined and to the extent required by the Facilities Agreement) of the Company for the most recent fiscal quarter ended at least 60 days prior to the 2025 Closing Date, in each case, as delivered under the Facilities Agreement.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.The Lenders shall have received at least three (3) Business Days prior to the 2025 Closing Date all documentation and other information regarding the Loan Parties required by bank regulatory authorities under applicable "know-your-customer" and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation the PATRIOT Act, in each case to the extent reasonably requested at least ten Business Days prior to the 2025 Closing Date.

**Notes to Attributed Financial Information (Continued)**

**(unaudited)**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) A tracking stock is a type of common stock that the issuing company intends to reflect or "track" the economic performance of a particular business or "group," rather than the economic performance of the company as a whole.

On August 3, 2023, the Company reclassified its then-outstanding shares of common stock into three new tracking stocks — Liberty SiriusXM common stock, Liberty Formula One common stock and Liberty Live common stock, and, in connection therewith, provided for the attribution of the businesses, assets and liabilities of the Company's remaining tracking stock groups among its newly created Liberty SiriusXM Group, Formula One Group and Liberty Live Group (the "Reclassification"). As a result of the Reclassification, each then-outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty SiriusXM common stock and 0.2500 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock and each outstanding share of Liberty Formula One common stock was reclassified into one share of the corresponding series of new Liberty Formula One common stock and 0.0428 of a share of the corresponding series of Liberty Live common stock.

On September 9, 2024, Liberty completed the split-off (the "Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off") of its wholly owned subsidiary, Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc. ("Liberty Sirius XM Holdings"). The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was accomplished through the redemption by the Company of each outstanding share of Liberty SiriusXM common stock in exchange for 0.8375 of a share of Liberty Sirius XM Holdings common stock, with cash paid in lieu of fractional shares. Liberty Sirius XM Holdings was comprised of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group immediately prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off. The Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off was intended to be tax-free to holders of Liberty SiriusXM common stock (except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares).

Liberty Sirius XM Holdings is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements as the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off represents a strategic shift that had a major effect on the Company's operations and financial results.

While the Formula One Group and Liberty Live Group have separate collections of businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to them, no group is a separate legal entity and therefore cannot own assets, issue securities or enter into legally binding agreements. Holders of tracking stock have no direct claim to the group's stock or assets and therefore, do not own, by virtue of their ownership of a Liberty tracking stock, any equity or voting interest in a public company, such as Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. ("Live Nation"), in which Liberty holds an interest and that is attributed to a Liberty tracking stock group, the Liberty Live Group. Holders of tracking stock are also not represented by separate boards of directors. Instead, holders of tracking stock are stockholders of the parent corporation, with a single board of directors and subject to all of the risks and liabilities of the parent corporation.

As of June 30, 2025, the Formula One Group was primarily comprised of Liberty's interests in Formula 1 and QuintEvents, LLC ("QuintEvents"), cash and Liberty's 2.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2027. As of June 30, 2025, the Formula One Group had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $3,140 million, which included $1,845 million of subsidiary cash.

As of June 30, 2025, the Liberty Live Group was primarily comprised of Liberty's interest in Live Nation, cash, other minority investments, Liberty's 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 and an undrawn margin loan.

Prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM common stock was intended to track and reflect the separate economic performance of the businesses, assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group. At the time of the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off, the Liberty SiriusXM Group was comprised of Liberty's interest in Sirius XM Holdings, corporate cash, Liberty's 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2028, Liberty's 2.75% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049 and a margin loan obligation incurred by a wholly-owned special purpose subsidiary of Liberty. As previously disclosed, Liberty Sirius XM

Holdings is presented as a discontinued operation in the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

On July 3, 2025, the Company acquired approximately 84% of the equity interests in Dorna Sports, S.L. ("MotoGP") for a preliminary purchase price of approximately $3.7 billion, funded with cash on hand and borrowings of $1.0 billion under the Incremental Term Loan, as defined in note 8 of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements. In December 2024, the Company agreed to pay €126 million of the purchase price to the sellers in order to accommodate the European Commission's extended regulatory review of the acquisition. The €126 million, paid in January 2025, was considered prepaid purchase consideration and is included in other assets in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024. Prior to the acquisition, the Company entered into foreign currency forward contracts for close to the full purchase price. A portion of the foreign currency forward contracts settled on June 30, 2025 and the remainder settled in July 2025. Due to the timing of the acquisition of MotoGP, the initial accounting for the acquisition was not complete at the time the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements were issued. The Company is in the process of determining the preliminary fair value of the net assets acquired, which will primarily be comprised of goodwill, MotoGP's rights holder agreement with the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme and customer relationships. MotoGP is attributed to the Formula One Group.

On November 13, 2024, the Company announced that it is pursuing a plan to splitoff the Liberty Live Group (the "Liberty Live Split-Off"). Immediately prior to the Liberty Live Split-Off, QuintEvents, certain private assets and cash will be reattributed from the Formula One Group to the Liberty Live Group in exchange for certain private assets attributed to the Liberty Live Group. Any cash consideration will be determined at a future date based on relative valuations of the assets that are being reattributed. The Liberty Live Split-Off will be effected through the redemption of Liberty Live common stock in exchange for common stock of a newly formed company, Liberty Live Holdings, Inc. ("Liberty Live"). The Company will redeem each outstanding share of its Series A, Series B and Series C Liberty Live common stock for one share of the corresponding series of common stock of Liberty Live. As a result of the Liberty Live Split-Off, the Company and Liberty Live will be separate publicly traded companies, and the Company's outstanding common stock, the Liberty Formula One common stock, will no longer be a tracking stock. The Liberty Live Split-Off is subject to various conditions including, among other things, shareholder approval and the receipt of an opinion of tax counsel. The Liberty Live Split-Off is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025 and is intended to be tax-free to stockholders of the Company.

For information relating to investments in affiliates accounted for using the equity method and debt, see notes 7 and 8, respectively, of the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2) Cash compensation expense for our corporate employees is allocated between the Formula One Group and the Liberty Live Group and between the Formula One Group, the Liberty Live Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group prior to the Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Split-Off based on the estimated percentage of time spent providing services for each group. On an annual basis, estimated time spent is determined through an interview process and a review of personnel duties unless transactions significantly change the composition of companies, businesses and investments in either respective group that would require a timelier reevaluation of estimated time spent. Other general and administrative expenses are charged directly to the respective groups whenever possible and are otherwise allocated based on estimated usage or other reasonably determined methodology. Stock compensation related to each tracking stock is calculated based on actual awards outstanding.

While we believe that this allocation method is reasonable and fair to each group, we may elect to change the allocation methodology or percentages used to allocate general and administrative expenses in the future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3) The intergroup balance at June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024 is primarily a result of timing of tax benefits.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4) The Liberty Formula One common stock and Liberty Live common stock have voting and conversion rights under our restated charter. Holders of Series A common stock of each group are entitled to one vote per share, and holders of Series B common stock of each group are entitled to ten votes per share. Holders of Series C common stock of each group are generally not entitled to vote, except as (and then only to the extent) required by Delaware law, and in such limited cases are entitled to 1/100th of a vote per share. In general, holders of

Series A and Series B common stock vote as a single class. In certain limited circumstances, the board may elect to seek the approval of the holders of only Series A and Series B Liberty Formula One common stock, or only Series A and Series B Liberty Live common stock.

At the option of the holder, each share of Series B common stock of each group will be convertible into one share of Series A common stock of the same group. Shares of Series A common stock and shares of Series C common stock of each group are not convertible by the holder into any other security. At the discretion of our board, the common stock related to one group may be converted into common stock of the same series that is related to another group.
