 WHEREAS, the Corporation has reserved
the right in Section 12.2 of the Hourly Retirement Plan to amend the Hourly Retirement Plan from time to time by action of its Board of Directors or any person to whom the Board of Directors may delegate such right; and 

WHEREAS, the Corporation previously explored amending the Hourly Retirement Plan to provide for a special window period under the
Hourly Retirement Plan during which certain eligible participants may elect distribution in the form of an immediate lump sum or an immediate monthly annuity, subject to certain terms and conditions (a “Window Period”); and 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors previously approved the adoption and implementation of a Window Period and a related Amendment to the
Hourly Retirement Plan, with such Window Period (i) to begin at such time as determined by the appropriate officers of the Corporation but to be completed by no later than April 30, 2017, (ii) to extend for a period of up to 90 days,

necessary or desirable; and 
 WHEREAS, the Corporation desires to further explore the considerations associated with the proposed
Window Period under the Hourly Retirement Plan and therefore wishes to postpone any such Window Period under the Hourly Retirement Plan from the timeframe previously established by the Board of Directors; and 

WHEREAS, the Board of Directors wishes to accommodate further analysis by the Corporation regarding the potential Window Period under
the Hourly Retirement Plan and accordingly suspend the deadline it previously established; 

 IT IS THEREFORE RESOLVED, the Board of Directors hereby suspends indefinitely the previous
deadline that it established for the Window Period under the Hourly Retirement Plan to such time or times as the appropriate officers of the Corporation determine if and when to proceed with one or more Window Periods; 

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the appropriate officers of the Corporation are authorized to design, in their discretion, one or more Window
Periods under the Hourly Retirement Plan to be available to deferred vested participants (or as otherwise determined by the appropriate officers of the Corporation) whose accrued benefits under the Hourly Retirement Plan have a present value that
does not exceed $25,000 or such lower amount as determined by the appropriate officers of the Corporation and with such other terms and conditions as the appropriate officers of the Corporation deem necessary or desirable; 

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors hereby approves the adoption and implementation of one or more Window Periods under the
Hourly Retirement Plan by the Corporation consistent with the foregoing resolutions, without further action by the Board of Directors; 

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Board of Directors hereby authorizes the appropriate officers of the Corporation to prepare and adopt one or
more Amendments to the Hourly Retirement Plan to provide for any such Window Periods and related terms and conditions, as such officers determine necessary and desirable, without further action by the Board of Directors; and 

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the officers of the Corporation and their delegates are authorized, empowered and directed to proceed with all
actions they deem necessary, appropriate or desirable to implement any such Window Periods under the Hourly Retirement Plan, to adopt approve the related Amendment(s) to the Hourly Retirement Plan, and to carry out the full intent and purposes of
the foregoing resolutions, including without limitation the preparation of participant communications and the filing of any governmental notices. 

Ratification; Further Assurances 

RESOLVED, that any and all actions of the officers of the Corporation (and their delegates) heretofore taken with respect to any and
all matters referred to in the foregoing resolutions be, and they hereby are, ratified, confirmed and approved in all respects; and be it 

FURTHER RESOLVED, that the appropriate officers of the Corporation be, and they hereby are, authorized and empowered, in the name and
on behalf of the Corporation, to take any and all additional actions, to make or cause to be made and to execute and deliver all such additional agreements, documents, instruments and certifications, to do or cause to be done all such acts and
things, to take all such steps and to make all such remittances, in each case as any one or more of such officers may at any time or times deem necessary, desirable, advisable, profitable or expedient in order to carry out the full intent and

                                         a quorum of directors entitled to vote on the resolution was present, or that the resolution
                                         has been signed by all the directors of officers and is valid under that Obligor's articles

		12	Enforcement

 

		12.1	Jurisdiction

 

		(a)	The courts of England have exclusive
                                         jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement
                                         (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement
                                         or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Agreement)
                                         (a "Dispute").

 

		(b)	The Obligors accept that the courts
                                         of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly
                                         no Obligor will argue to the contrary.

 

		12.2	Service of process

 

		(a)	Without prejudice to any other mode
                                         of service allowed under any relevant law, each Obligor (other than an Obligor incorporated
                                         in England and Wales):

 

		(i)	irrevocably appoints WFW Legal
                                         Services Limited at its registered office presently at 15 Appold Street, London EC2A
                                         2HB as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English
                                         courts in connection with any Finance Document; and

 

		(ii)	agrees that failure by a process
                                         agent to notify the relevant Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings
                                         concerned.

 

		(b)	If any person appointed as an agent
                                         for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process,
                                         the Borrowers (on behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately (and in any event within
                                         3 days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Facility
                                         Agent. Failing this, the Facility Agent may appoint another agent for this purpose.

 

This Agreement has been entered into on

		(a)	In this Agreement:

 

"Protected
Party" means a Finance Party which is or will be subject to any liability, or required to make any payment, for
or on account of Tax in relation to a sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the purposes of Tax to be received or receivable)
under a Finance Document.

 

"Tax
Credit" means a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of any Tax.

 

"Tax
Deduction" means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document, other

"Tax
Payment" means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Finance Party under Clause 12.2 (Tax
gross-up) or a payment under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity).

 

		(b)	Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) reference
to "determines" or "determined" means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making
the determination.

 

		(c)	This Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) shall not apply to any Hedging Agreement.

 

		12.2	Tax gross-up

 

		(a)	Each Obligor shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction
is required by law.

 

		(b)	The Borrowers shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or
that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender
shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives
such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrowers and that Obligor.

 

		(c)	If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from
that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which
would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

 

		(d)	If an Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall make that Tax Deduction and
any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

 

		(e)	Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that
Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the
payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate
payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

 

    	 	 42	 

     

    

 

		12.3	Tax indemnity

 

		(a)	The Borrowers shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected
Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly)
suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document.

 

		(b)	Paragraph (a) above shall not apply:

 

		(i)	with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party:

 

		(A)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different,
the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

 

		(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located
in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

 

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated
by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party;
or

 

		(ii)	to the extent a loss, liability or cost

 

is compensated
for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up).

notify the Facility Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall

Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was received; and

 

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

 

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

 

		12.5	Stamp taxes

 

The Borrowers shall pay and, within
three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Secured Party against any cost, loss or liability which that Secured Party incurs
in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document.

 

		12.6	VAT

 

		(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).

		(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):

 

		(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 (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

 

		(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.

 

		(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 of it 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.

 

		(d)	Any reference in this Clause 12.6 (VAT) to any Party shall, at any time when such Party
is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference
to any member of such group at such time.

 

		(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.

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

 

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

 

		(A)	a FATCA Exempt Party; or

 

		(B)	not a FATCA Exempt Party;

 

		(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;

 

    	 	 44	 

     

    

 

		(iii)	supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status
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.

 

		(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.

 

		(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:

 

		(i)	any law or regulation;

 

		(ii)	any fiduciary duty; or

 

		(iii)	any duty of confidentiality.

 

		(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.

 

		12.8	FATCA Deduction

 

		(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.

 

		(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,
shall notify the Borrowers and the Facility Agent and the Facility Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

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 the Guarantors under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under
this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Guarantors) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a
guarantee.

 

		17.2	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

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 Secured
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 the Guarantors under this Clause 17 (Guarantee
and Indemnity – Guarantors) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

 

		17.4	Waiver of defences

 

The obligations of the Guarantors
under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Guarantors) and in respect of any Transaction Security will not be
affected or discharged by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 17.4 (Waiver of defences), would
reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Guarantors) or
in respect of any Transaction Security (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Secured Party) including:

 

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

 

		(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;

 

    	 	 51

or delay in perfecting, or refusal or neglect to take up or enforce, or delay in taking or enforcing 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;

 

		(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;

 

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

 

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

 

		(g)	any insolvency or similar proceedings.

 

		17.5	Immediate recourse

 

The Guarantors waive any right they
may have of first requiring any Secured 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 (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document
or to enforce any Transaction Security) before claiming or commencing proceedings under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity
– Guarantors). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

 

		17.6	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 Secured
Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

 

		(a)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that
Secured 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 the Guarantors shall not be entitled to the benefit of
the same; and

 

		(b)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Guarantors or on account
of any Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Guarantors).

or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents and until
the end of the Security Period and unless the Facility Agent otherwise directs, the Guarantors will not exercise any rights which
they may have (whether in respect of any Finance Document to which it is a Party or any other transaction) by reason of performance
by the Guarantors of their obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising,
under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Guarantors):

 

    	 	 52

rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection
with, the Finance Documents by any Secured Party;

 

		(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 the Guarantors have given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17 (Guarantee
and Indemnity – Guarantors);

 

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

 

		(f)	to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Secured Party.

 

If the Guarantors receive any benefit,
payment or distribution in relation to such rights they shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary
to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Secured Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance
Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Secured Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent
or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 37 (Payment Mechanics).

 

		17.8	Additional security

 

This guarantee and any other Security
given by the Guarantors is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by, and shall not prejudice, any other guarantee or

Changes
to Parties

 

		30	Changes to the Lenders

 

		30.1	Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

 

Subject to this Clause 30 (Changes
to the Lenders), a Lender (the "Existing Lender") may:

 

		(a)	assign any of its rights; or

 

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

 

under the Finance Documents to another
bank or financial institution or to a trust, fund or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose
of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (except for a hedge fund) (the "New Lender")
but in no event to a member of the Group or a holding company, or holding company acting in concert, of the Parent Guarantor.

 

		30.2	Conditions of assignment or transfer

 

		(a)	The consent of the Borrowers is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, unless
the assignment or transfer is:

 

		(i)	to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender;

 

		(ii)	if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund; or

 

		(iii)	made at a time when a Default is continuing,

 

in which cases an assignment by an
Existing Lender may be done freely.

 

		(b)	The consent of the Borrowers to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or
delayed. Each Borrower will be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless
consent is expressly refused by that Borrower within that time.

 

		(c)	The consent of a Borrower to an assignment or transfer must not be withheld solely because the
assignment or transfer may result in an increase to any amount payable under Clause 14.3 (Mandatory Cost).

 

		(d)	An assignment will only be effective on:

 

		(i)	receipt by the Facility Agent (whether in the Assignment Agreement or otherwise) of written confirmation
from the New Lender (in form and substance satisfactory to the Facility Agent) that the New Lender will assume the same obligations
to the other Secured Parties as it would have been under if it were an Original Lender; and

 

		(ii)	performance by the Facility Agent of all necessary "know your customer" or other similar
checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Facility
Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

 

		(e)	A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 30.5 (Procedure for transfer)
is complied with.

 

    	 	 95	 

     

    

 

		(f)	If:

 

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

 

		(ii)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, 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 12 (Tax
Gross Up and Indemnities) or Clause 13 (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, transfer or change had not occurred.

 

		(g)	Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement, confirms,
for the avoidance of doubt, that the Facility Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been
approved by or on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which
the transfer or assignment becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same
extent as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender.

 

		30.3	Assignment or transfer fee

 

The New Lender shall, on the date
upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Facility Agent (for its own account) a fee of $5,000 unless the assignment
or transfer is to an Affiliate of the Existing Lender.

 

		30.4	Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

 

		(a)	Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty
and assumes no responsibility to a New Lender for:

 

		(i)	the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents, the
Transaction Security or any other documents;

 

		(ii)	the financial condition of any Transaction Obligor;

 

		(iii)	the performance and observance by any Transaction Obligor of its obligations under the Finance
Documents or any other documents; or

 

		(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.

 

		(b)	Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties and the Secured Parties
that it:

 

		(i)	has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial
condition and affairs of each Transaction 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

 

    	 	 96	 

     

    

 

		(ii)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Transaction
Obligor and its related entities throughout the Security Period.

 

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

 

		(i)	accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned
or transferred under this Clause 30 (Changes to the Lenders); or

 

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

 

		30.5	Procedure for transfer

 

		(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in 30.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer), a transfer
is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate
delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility 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 this Agreement
and delivered in accordance with this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.

 

		(b)	The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the
Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other
similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

 

		(c)	Subject to Clause 30.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

 

		(i)	to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation
its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security, each of the Obligors and the
Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the
Transaction Security and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction
Security shall be cancelled (being the "Discharged Rights and Obligations");

 

		(ii)	each of the Obligors and the New Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire
rights against one another which differ from the Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as that Obligor and the New Lender
have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Obligor and the Existing Lender;

 

		(iii)	the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, each Mandated Lead Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders
shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves and in respect of the Transaction Security as
they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or
assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the each Mandated Lead Arranger
and the Existing Lenders shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and

 

		(iv)	the New Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender".

 

		30.6	Procedure for assignment

 

		(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 30.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer)
an assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed
Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility 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.

 

    	 	 97	 

     

    

 

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

 

		(c)	Subject to Clause 30.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

 

		(i)	the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender its rights under the Finance Documents
and in respect of the Transaction Security expressed to be the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement;

 

		(ii)	the Existing Lender will be released from the obligations (the "Relevant Obligations")
expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement (and any corresponding obligations by which it is bound
in respect of the Transaction Security); and

 

		(iii)	the New Lender shall become a Party as a "Lender" and will be bound by obligations equivalent
to the Relevant Obligations.

 

		(d)	Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 30.6 (Procedure for assignment)
to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance
with Clause 30.5 (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 30.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer).

 

		30.7	Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrowers

 

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

 

		30.8	Security over Lenders' rights

 

In addition to the other rights provided
to Lenders under this Clause 30 (Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from
any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all
or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:

 

		(a)	any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central
bank; and

 

		(b)	in the case of any Lender which is a fund, any charge, assignment or other Security granted to
any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for
those obligations or securities,

 

except that no such charge, assignment
or Security shall:

 

		(i)	release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary
of the relevant charge, assignment or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or

 

    	 	 98	 

     

    

 

		(ii)	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.

 

		30.9	Pro rata interest settlement

 

If the Facility Agent has notified
the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a "pro rata basis" to Existing Lenders and New
Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 30.5 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to
Clause 30.6 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification
and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):

 

		(a)	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

 

		(b)	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:

 

		(i)	when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing
Lender; and

 

		(ii)	the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application
of this Clause 30.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued
Amounts.

 

		30.10	Replacement of Lender by Borrowers

 

		(a)	The Borrowers may, at any time (other than where an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing) in respect of:

 

		(i)	a Lender whose costs of funds charged to the Borrowers are (in the Borrowers' reasonable opinion)
materially higher than those of the other Lenders generally;

 

		(ii)	a Lender which is a Defaulting Lender; or

 

		(iii)	a Lender which is a Non-Consenting Lender,

 

by giving 10 Business
Days' notice to the Facility Agent and that Lender (the "Outgoing Lender") replace the Outgoing Lender by requiring
it to (and the Outgoing Lender must) transfer in accordance with Clause 30.5 (Procedure for transfer) all (and not part
only) of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to a Lender or other bank (a "Replacement Lender") selected
by the Borrowers and which is acceptable to the Facility Agent (acting reasonably) for a purchase price in cash payable at the
time of transfer equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Outgoing Lender's Contribution and all accrued interest, break
costs and other amounts payable in relation to that Contribution under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents.

 

		(b)	Any transfer of rights and obligations of an Outgoing Lender under this Clause is subject to the
following conditions:

 

		(i)	neither the Facility Agent nor the Outgoing Lender will have any obligation to the Borrowers to
find a Replacement Lender;

 

    	 	 99	 

     

    

 

		(ii)	the transfer must take place no later than 10 Business Days after the Borrowers' notice referred
to above; and

 

		(iii)	in no event will the Outgoing Lender be required to pay or surrender to the Replacement Lender
any of the fees received by the Outgoing Lender under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents.

rights or transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents.

(a "Recovered Amount") and applies that amount to a payment due to it under the Finance Documents then:

 

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

 

		(b)	the Facility Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the

in accordance with Clause 37 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility
Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

 

		(c)	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent,
pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the "Sharing Payment") equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount
which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in
accordance with Clause 37.5 (Application of receipts; partial payments).

 

    	 	 120	 

     

    

 

		36.2	Redistribution of payments

 

The Facility Agent shall treat
the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it among the Finance Parties (other than the

partial payments); partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

 

		36.3	Recovering Finance Party 's rights

 

On a distribution by the Facility
Agent under Clause 36.2 (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.

 

		36.4	Reversal of redistribution

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

		36.5	Exceptions

 

		(a)	This Clause 36 (Sharing Among the Finance Parties) shall not apply to the extent that the
Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against
the relevant Obligor.

 

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

 

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

 

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

		(a)	On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document,
that Obligor or Lender shall make an amount equal to such payment available to the Facility Agent (unless a contrary indication

customary at the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

 

		(b)	Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that
currency and with such bank as the Facility Agent, in each case, specifies.

Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Facility Agent by not less than five Business Days' notice with a bank

together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent, calculated by the
Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

 

		(c)	If the Facility Agent is willing to make available amounts for the account of the Borrowers before

		(ii)	the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if the Lender fails to do so,
the Borrowers to whom that sum was made available, shall on demand pay to the Facility Agent the amount (as certified by the Facility

them; and

be entitled to it.

of that Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:
