 Re: 2017
Incentive Plan 
 This document outlines your Incentive Plan for 2017. The rules and guidelines for the plan are contained herein. 

 

	 	1.	Compensation Package: Your compensation package is made up of a base salary and an Incentive Bonus (“IB”) target. The IB provides reward for successful performance and is based upon your performance to
your assigned annual company revenue target (“CRT”), Corporate Quarterly Revenue Target (“CQRT”) and Strategic Accounts (“SA”) deals. 

While the CRT is based upon annual revenue target, the IB payment period is quarterly. Payments are calculated on a quarterly basis, against
your CRT, based on bookings that has been invoiced and recognized as revenue by CEVA, Inc. (the “Company”), and paid after the end of the respective quarter as soon as is practically possible. 

 

	 	a.	Company Revenue Target (“CRT”)                          $*

  

					
	i.	  	Revenue-Based Incentive Target:	  	$150,000
			
	ii.	  	Commission Rate: *%	  	
		
	iii.	  	Commission Multiplier: The plan includes multipliers (the “Commission Multipliers”), as shown in the table below. The Commission Multiplier to be used in the quarterly commission calculation will be based on
your percent of cumulative quota achievement
			
	 	  	 Percent of Cumulative

Quota Achievement
	  	 Commission Multiplier

to be Applied

		  	 From 0 to 100%
	  	1.0
		  	 From 100%       
	  	1.5

  
  

	 	b.	Corporate Quarterly Revenue Target (“CQRT”): An additional bonus of $5,000 will be paid for each of the following CQRTs if achieved. 

 

			
	i.	  	Q1        $*
		
	ii.	  	Q2        $*
		
	iii.	  	Q3        $*
		
	iv.	  	Q4        $*

  

	*	Portions of this exhibit is redacted because the disclosure of the information would cause competitive harm to the company. 

	 	c.	Strategic Account (“SA”) Bonus: An additional bonus of $5,000 will be paid for each deal that exceeds $1 million (not including prepaid royalties) with the following companies: *. 

 

	 	d.	Payments are calculated on an annual basis, based on bookings that have been invoiced and recognized as revenue by the Company, and paid as is practically possible. 

The total bonus payment due to SA deals will be capped at $20,000 as long as the annual revenue achieved is below the CRT. The cap for SA
bonus will be removed once the annual revenue achieved exceeds the CRT. 
  

	 	2.	Effective date/terms: This plan is effective for January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017, unless modified in writing by the CEO of the Company. This plan supersedes all prior commission plans.
Management reserves the right to make any changes to the sales incentive plan at any time. 

  

	 	3.	Plan Eligibility: This plan applies to full time sales personnel. If you resign, terminate, or cease to be an employee of the Company, you will be entitled to IB on any revenue amount invoiced up to the date of
termination. 

 I have read and understand the 2017 Incentive Plan. I have received a copy of the plan for my record. I accept the terms and
conditions of the plan as outlined above and agree that my compensation will be determined according to these terms and conditions.

 The choice of the laws of England to govern the Loan Agreement and those
other Finance Documents which are expressed to be governed by the laws of England constitutes a valid choice of law and the submission by each Borrower thereunder to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the

	(b)	as mortgagee in possession or otherwise, for any income or principal amount which might have been produced by or realised from any asset comprised in such a Security Interest or for any reduction (however caused) in the
value of such an asset, 

 except that this does not exempt a Creditor Party or a receiver or manager from liability for losses
shown to have been directly or mainly caused by the gross negligence, the dishonesty or the wilful misconduct of such Creditor Party’s own officers and employees or ( as the case may be) such receiver’s or manager’s own partners or
employees.

	21	INDEMNITIES 

  

	21.1	Indemnities regarding borrowing and repayment of Loan 

 The Borrowers shall fully
indemnify the Facility Agent and each Lender on the Facility Agent’s demand and the Security Trustee on its demand in respect of all claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which are made or brought against or incurred by that Creditor Party,
or which that Creditor Party reasonably and with due diligence estimates that it will incur, as a result of or in connection with:

payable to that Creditor Party (whether for its own account or otherwise) under any Finance Document Provided that, other than in the case of paragraph (d), to the extent that such losses are attributable to specific Tranches, each Borrower
who was an Affected Borrower at the time such losses were incurred shall only be required to indemnify the Creditor Parties for losses attributable to the Tranche relative to a Chartered Ship and the other Borrowers shall be required to indemnify
the Creditor Parties for losses attributable to all Tranches which were not at the relevant time Tranches relating to a Chartered Ship. 

  
 74 

	21.2	Break Costs 

 If a Lender (the “Notifying Lender”) notifies the Facility
Agent that as a consequence of receipt or recovery of all or any part of the Loan (a “Payment”) on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the sum received or recovered the Notifying Lender has or will,
with effect from a specified date, incur Break Costs: 
  

	(a)	the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of a notice it receives from a Notifying Lender under this Clause 21.2; 

  

	(b)	the Borrowers (or, subject to Clause 29.2, each Affected Borrower with respect to each Tranche relative to a Chartered Ship), shall, within 3 Business Days of the Facility Agent’s demand, pay to the Facility Agent
for the account of the Notifying Lender the amount of such Break Costs; and 

  

	(c)	the Notifying Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, following a request by the Borrowers, provide a certificate confirming the amount of the Notifying Lender’s Break Costs for the Interest Period in
which they accrue, such certificate to be, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive and binding on the Borrower. 

 In this
Clause 21.2, “Break Costs” means, in relation to a Payment the amount (if any) by which: 
  

	 	(i)	the interest which the Notifying Lender, should have received in respect of the sum received or recovered from the date of receipt or recovery of such Payment to the last day of the then current Interest Period
applicable to the sum received or recovered had such Payment been made on the last day of such Interest Period; 

 exceeds 

 

	 	(ii)	the amount which the Notifying Lender, would be able to obtain by placing an amount equal to such Payment on deposit with a leading bank in the London interbank market for a period commencing on the Business Day
following receipt or recovery of such Payment (as the case may be) and ending on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to the sum received or recovered. 

 

	21.3	Other breakage costs 

 Without limiting its generality, Clause 21.1 covers any claim,
expense, liability or loss, including a loss of prospective profit, incurred by a Lender in borrowing, liquidating or re-employing deposits from third parties acquired, contracted for or arranged to fund,
effect or maintain all or any part of its Contribution and/or any overdue amount (or an aggregate amount which includes its Contribution or any overdue amount) other than claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which are shown to have been directly
and mainly caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the officers or employees of the Creditor Party concerned. 
  

	21.4	Miscellaneous indemnities 

 The Borrowers shall fully indemnify each Creditor Party
severally on their respective demands, without prejudice to any of their other rights under any of the Finance Documents, in respect of all claims, proceedings, liabilities, taxes, losses and expenses of every kind which may be made or brought
against or sustained or incurred by a Creditor Party, in any country, as a result of or in connection with: 
  

	(a)	any action taken, or omitted or neglected to be taken, under or in connection with any Finance Document by the Facility Agent, the Security Trustee or any other Creditor Party or by any receiver appointed under a
Finance Document (each an “Indemnified Party”); 

  
 75 

	(b)	any claim, action, civil penalty or fine against, any settlement, and any other kind of loss or liability, and all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) incurred by any
Indemnified Party as a result of negligent conduct of any Borrower, any Security Party, any member of the Group(s), or any of their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents or advisors, that violates any Sanctions; 

 

	(c)	investigating any event which the Creditor Party concerned reasonably believes constitutes an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default; 

 

	(d)	acting or relying on any notice, request or instruction which the Creditor Party concerned reasonably believes to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised; or 

 

	(e)	any other Pertinent Matter, 

 other than claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which
are shown to have been directly and mainly caused by the dishonesty, gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the officers or employees of the Creditor Party concerned. 

Without prejudice to its generality, Clause 21.1 and this Clause 21.4 cover any claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which arise, or are
asserted, under or in connection with any law relating to safety at sea, the ISM Code, the ISPS Code, any Environmental Law or Sanctions. 
  

	21.5	Environmental Indemnity 

 Without prejudice to its generality, Clause 21.3 covers any
claims, demands, proceedings, liabilities, taxes, losses or expenses of every kind which arise, or are asserted, under or in connection with any law relating to safety at sea, pollution or the protection of the environment, the ISM Code or the ISPS
Code. 
  

	21.6	Currency indemnity 

 If any sum due from any Borrower or any Security Party to a Creditor
Party under a Finance Document or under any order, award or judgment relating to a Finance Document (a “Sum”) has to be converted from the currency in which the Finance Document provided for the Sum to be paid (the
“Contractual Currency”) into another currency (the “Payment Currency”) for the purpose of: 
  

	(a)	making, filing or lodging any claim or proof against any Borrower or any Security Party, whether in its liquidation, any arrangement involving it or otherwise; or 

 

	(b)	obtaining an order, judgment or award from any court or other tribunal in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings; or 

  

	(c)	enforcing any such order, judgment or award, 

 the Borrowers shall as an independent
obligation, within 3 Business Days of demand, indemnify the Creditor Party to whom that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising when the payment actually received by that Creditor Party is converted at the available rate of exchange
back into the Contractual Currency including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange actually used to convert the Sum from the Payment Currency into the Contractual Currency and (B) the available rate of exchange. 

In this Clause 21.6, the “available rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Creditor Party concerned is able at the
opening of business (London time) on the Business Day after it receives the Sum to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Payment Currency. 

  
 76 

 The Borrowers waive any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under the Finance
Documents in a currency other than that in which it is expressed to be payable. 
 If any Creditor Party receives any Sum in a currency other
than the Contractual Currency, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Creditor Party concerned against any cost, loss or liability arising directly or indirectly from any conversion of such Sum to the Contractual Currency. 

This Clause 21.6 creates a separate liability of each Borrower which is distinct from its other liabilities under the Finance Documents and
which shall not be merged in any judgment or order relating to those other liabilities. 
  

	21.7	Application to Master Agreements 

 For the avoidance of doubt, Clause 21.4 does not apply
in respect of sums due from a Borrower to the Swap Bank under or in connection with any Master Agreement as to which sums the provisions of section 8 (Contractual Currency) of that Master Agreement shall apply. 

 

	21.8	Certification of amounts 

 A notice which is signed by 2 officers of a Creditor Party,
which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to that Creditor Party under this Clause 21 and which indicates (without necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount,
is due shall be prima facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due. 
  

	21.9	Sums deemed due to a Lender 

 For the purposes of this Clause 21, a sum payable by a
Borrower to the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee for distribution to a Lender shall be treated as a sum due to that Lender.

paid: 
  

	(a)	without any form of set-off, counter-claim or condition; and 

  

	(b)	free and clear of any tax deduction except a tax deduction which a Borrower is required by law, regulation or regulatory requirement to make. 

 

	22.2	Grossing-up for taxes 

 If any Borrower is
required by law, regulation or regulatory requirement to make a tax deduction from any payment due under a Finance Document: 
  

	(a)	that Borrowers shall notify the Facility Agent as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement; 

  

	(b)	the amount due in respect of the payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that, after the making of such tax deduction, each Creditor Party receives and retains (free from any liability relating to
the tax deduction) a net amount which, after the tax deduction, is equal to the full amount which it would have received had no such tax deduction been required to be made; and 

  
 77 

	(c)	the Borrowers shall pay the full amount of the tax required to be deducted to the appropriate taxation authority promptly in accordance with the relevant law, regulation or regulatory requirement, and in any event
before any fine or penalty arises, 

 Provided that if a payment from a Borrower which is not an Affected Borrower is
required to be increased under this Clause, such increase shall not constitute an obligation of any Affected Borrower and Provided further that if a payment from an Affected Borrower is required to be increased under this Clause 22.2, such
increase shall not constitute an obligation of any Borrower which is not an Affected Borrower. 
  

	22.3	Indemnity and evidence of payment of taxes 

 The Borrowers shall fully indemnify each
Creditor Party on the Facility Agent’s demand in respect of all claims, expenses, liabilities and losses incurred by any Creditor Party by reason of: 
  

	(a)	any failure of a Borrower to make any tax deduction; or 

  

	(b)	any increased payment not being made on the due date for such payment in accordance with Clause 22.2; or 

  

	(c)	without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 22.2, any payment on account of tax required to be made by a Creditor Party solely as a result of that Creditor Party’s entry into any Finance Document (not being a tax
imposed on the net income of that Creditor Party by the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, or the jurisdiction in which it is located or on the capital of that Creditor Party employed in such jurisdiction or jurisdictions) on any sum received
or receivable under the Finance Documents (including, without limitation, any sum received or receivable under this Clause 22.3) or any liability in respect of any such payment is asserted, imposed, levied or assessed against that Creditor Party.

 Within 30 days after making any tax deduction, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Facility Agent any receipts, certificates
or other documentary evidence satisfactory to the Facility Agent that the tax had been paid to the appropriate taxation authority. 
  

	22.4	Exclusion of tax on overall net income 

 In this Clause 22 “tax
deduction” means any deduction or withholding from any payment due under a Finance Document for or on account of any present or future tax except tax on a Creditor Party’s overall net income. 

 

	22.5	Application to Master Agreements 

 For the avoidance of doubt, Clause 22 does not apply
in respect of sums due from any Borrower to the Swap Bank under or in connection with a Master Agreement as to which sums the provisions of section 2(d) (Deduction or Withholding for Tax) of a Master Agreement shall apply. 

 

	22.6	FATCA 

  

	(a)	FATCA Information: 

  

	 	(i)	Subject to paragraph (iii) below, each party to a Finance Document shall, within 10 Business Days of a reasonable request by another party to the Finance Documents: 

 

	 	(A)	confirm to that other party whether it is a FATCA Exempt Party or is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 

  
 78 

	 	(B)	supply to the requesting party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable “passthru percentage” or other information required under the
Treasury regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as the requesting party reasonably requests for the purposes of such requesting party’s compliance with FATCA. 

 

	 	(ii)	If a party to any Finance Document confirms to another party pursuant to Clause 22.5(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. 

  

	 	(iii)	Sub-clause (i) above shall not oblige any Creditor Party to do anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of any law or regulation, any
policy of that party, any fiduciary duty or any duty of confidentiality, or to disclose any confidential information (including, without limitation, its tax returns and calculations); provided, however, that information required (or equivalent to
the information so required) by United States Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8 or W-9 (or any successor forms) shall not be treated as confidential information of such
party for purposes of this Sub-clause (iii). 

  

	 	(iv)	If a party to any Finance Document fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with sub-clause (i) above
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, where sub-clause (iii) above applies), then: 

  

	 	(A)	if that party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 

 

	 	(B)	if that party failed to confirm its applicable passthru percentage then such party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable passthru percentage is
100 per cent., 

 until (in each case) such time as the party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms,
documentation or other information. 
  

	(b)	FATCA Gross-Up: 

  

	 	(i)	If a Borrower or any Security Party making a payment under a Finance Document is required to make a FATCA Deduction, that Borrower or Security Party shall make that FATCA Deduction and shall make a payment to the United
States government within the time allowed and in the amount required by FATCA. 

  

	 	(ii)	If a FATCA Deduction is required to be made by a Borrower or any Security Party, the amount of the payment due from that Borrower or any Security Party shall be increased to an amount which (after making any FATCA
Deductions) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no FATCA Deduction had been required. 

  

	 	(iii)	Each of the Borrowers and the Security Parties shall promptly upon becoming aware that a FATCA Deduction is required (or that there is any change in the rate or basis of a FATCA Deduction) notify the Facility Agent
accordingly. A Lender shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming aware that a FATCA Deduction (or that a change in the rate or basis of a FATCA Deduction) may be required on a payment to such Lender. 

  
 79 

	 	(iv)	Within 30 days of making either a FATCA Deduction or any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, the Borrowers or any Security Party, as applicable, shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the party

	 	(v)	Each Creditor Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make under FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and none of the Creditor Parties shall be required to increase any
payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction. A Creditor Party which becomes aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to another party (or that there is any change in the rate or basis of such FATCA Deduction)
shall notify that party and the Facility Agent. 

  

	 	(vi)	If the Facility Agent is required to make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Creditor Party which relates to a payment by a Borrower or any Security Party, the amount of the payment due from that Borrower or
Security Party, as the case may be, shall be increased to an amount which (after the Facility Agent has made such FATCA Deduction) leaves the Facility Agent with an amount equal to the payment which would have been made by the Facility Agent if no
FATCA Deduction had been required. 

  

	 	(vii)	The Facility Agent shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Lender which relates to a payment by any Borrower or any Security Party (or that there is any change
in the rate or the basis of such a FATCA Deduction) notify the Borrowers and the relevant Lender. 

  

	(c)	FATCA Indemnity: 

  

	 	(i)	The Borrowers shall (within 3 Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) indemnify each Creditor Party and pay to each such Creditor Party an amount equal to the taxes, losses, liabilities or costs which such
Creditor Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered by such party as a result of the Borrowers or any Security Party making a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment due to such Creditor Party under a Finance Document, or
any taxes, penalties, interest or other amounts being asserted against or imposed on such Creditor Party by any taxing authority of or in the United States under FATCA. 

 

	 	(ii)	Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, if any Creditor Party is a FATCA Exempt Party, and after reasonable request of the Borrowers at least 60 days prior to the next Interest payment date, such Creditor Party has
not provided the Borrowers with written confirmation that it is a FATCA Exempt Party on or prior to the next Interest payment date after such request, then, unless the status of such party under FATCA is publicly published by the United States
Government or is otherwise publicly available in connection with FATCA, the Borrowers shall not be required to indemnify such Creditor Party for United States Federal taxes imposed under FATCA pursuant to this Clause 22.5 until such time as such
Creditor Party shall have provided written notification of its status as a FATCA Exempt Party. 

  

	 	(iii)	A Creditor Party making, or intending to make, a claim under sub-clause (i) above shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of the FATCA Deduction which will give, or has
given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower. 

  
 80 

	(d)	No Double FATCA Indemnity: 

 This Clause 22.5 shall be the sole remedy for the payment of
any United States Federal taxes imposed under FATCA and no such FATCA taxes shall be paid or indemnified under Clause 21 or any other sub-clause of Clause 22. 

 

	(e)	FATCA Mitigation: 

  

	 	(i)	If a FATCA Deduction is or will be required to be made by the Borrowers under Clause 22.5(b) or (c) in respect of a payment to any FATCA Non-Exempt Lender, the Borrowers may
(but shall not be required to), in addition to making any FATCA Deductions already required and any associated gross-up and indemnity payments under this Clause 22.5, elect to either: 

 

	 	(A)	prepay in full the Contribution of the FATCA Non-Exempt Lender (plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, and all other amounts then due the FATCA
Non-Exempt Lender) in accordance with and subject to the conditions of Clause 8 upon 15 days’ written notice to the Facility Agent and such FATCA Non-Exempt Lender,
specifying the amount to be prepaid, the date on which the prepayment is to be made and the basis for the FATCA Deduction, or 

  

	 	(B)	if no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, nominate one or more Transferee Lenders who upon becoming a Lender would be an Exempt FATCA Party, by notice in writing to the
Facility Agent and the FATCA Non-Exempt Lender specifying the terms of the proposed transfer, and, subject to sub-clause (ii) below, cause such Transferee Lender(s)
to purchase all of the FATCA Non-Exempt Lender’s Contribution and Commitment. 

  

	 	(ii)	If the Borrowers elect to nominate one or more Transferee Lenders under Clause 22.5(e)(i)(B), the relevant FATCA Non-Exempt Lender shall transfer its Contribution and Commitment
to such Transferee Lender(s), but only after such FATCA Non-Exempt Lender has received one or more payments from the Borrowers and such Transferee Lender(s) in an aggregate amount at least equal to the
aggregate outstanding Contribution of such FATCA Non-Exempt Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of payment of such Contribution and all other amounts payable to such FATCA Non-Exempt Lender under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	(iii)	If a FATCA Deduction is or will be required to be made by the Borrowers under Clause 22.5(b) or (c) in respect of a payment to any Creditor Party as a result of the Facility Agent not being a FATCA Exempt Party, at
the written request of the Creditor Party, the Facility Agent shall resign and a successor Facility Agent who is a FATCA Exempt Party shall be appointed pursuant to the Agency and Trust Deed. 

 

	22.7	Stamp taxes 

 The Borrowers must pay and indemnify each Creditor Party against any stamp
duty, registration or other similar Tax payable by that Creditor Party in connection with the entry into, performance or enforcement of any Finance Document. 
  

	22.8	Value added taxes 

 Any amount (including costs and expenses) payable under a Finance
Document by the Borrowers is exclusive of any value added tax or any other tax of a similar nature which might be chargeable in connection with that amount. If any such tax is chargeable, the Borrowers must pay to the Facility Agent (in addition to
and at the same time as paying that amount) an amount equal to the amount of that tax.

 This Clause 24 applies if a Lender or any affiliate of a Lender (the
“Notifying Lender”) notifies the Facility Agent that the Notifying Lender considers that as a result of: 
  

	(a)	the introduction or alteration after the date of this Agreement of a law or an alteration after the date of this Agreement in the manner in which a law is interpreted or applied (disregarding any effect which relates to
the application to payments under this Agreement of a tax on a Lender’s overall net income); or 

  

	(b)	complying with any regulation (including any which relates to capital adequacy or liquidity controls or which affects the manner in which the Notifying Lender allocates capital resources to its obligations under this
Agreement) which is introduced, or altered, or the interpretation or application of which is altered, after the date of this Agreement; or 

  

	(c)	the implementation or application of, or compliance with, Basel III, CRD IV or CRR or any law or regulation that implements or applies Basel III, CRD IV or CRR (whether such implementation, application or compliance is
by a government, regulator or the Notifying Lender or a parent company or affiliate of it), 

  

	(d)	in each case when compared to the cost of complying with such regulations as determined by the Notifying Lender (or parent company or affiliate of it) on the date of this Agreement (whether such implementation,
application or compliance is by a government, regulator, supervisory authority, the Notifying Lender or its holding company), 

  
 82 

 the Notifying Lender (or a parent company or affiliate of it) has incurred or will incur an
“increased cost”. 
  

	24.2	Meaning of “increased costs” 

 In this Clause 24, “increased
costs” means, in relation to a Notifying Lender: 
  

	 	(a)	an additional or increased cost incurred as a result of, or in connection with, the Notifying Lender having entered into, or being a party to, this Agreement or a Transfer Certificate or an Additional Lender’s
Certificate or having taken an assignment of rights under this Agreement, of funding or maintaining its Commitment or Contribution or performing its obligations under this Agreement, or of having outstanding all or any part of its Contribution or
other unpaid sums; 

  

	 	(b)	a reduction in the amount of any payment to the Notifying Lender under this Agreement or in the effective return which such a payment represents to the Notifying Lender or on its capital; 

 

	 	(c)	an additional or increased cost of funding all or maintaining all or any of the advances comprised in a class of advances formed by or including the Notifying Lender’s Contribution or (as the case may require) the
proportion of that cost attributable to the Contribution; or 

  

	 	(d)	a liability to make a payment, or a return foregone, which is calculated by reference to any amounts received or receivable by the Notifying Lender under this Agreement, 

but not an item attributable to a change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Notifying Lender (or a parent company or affiliate
of it) or an item covered by the indemnity for tax in Clause 21.1 or by Clause 22. 
 For the purposes of this Clause 24.2 the Notifying
Lender may in good faith allocate or spread costs and/or losses among its assets and liabilities (or any class of its assets and liabilities) on such basis as it considers appropriate. 

 

	24.3	Notification to Borrowers of claim for increased costs 

 The Facility Agent shall
promptly notify the Borrowers and the Security Parties of the notice which the Facility Agent received from the Notifying Lender under Clause 24.1. 
  

	24.4	Payment of increased costs 

 The Borrowers (or, subject to Clause 29.2, each applicable
Affected Borrower), shall pay to the Facility Agent, on the Facility Agent’s demand, for the account of the Notifying Lender the amounts which the Facility Agent from time to time notifies the Borrowers (or each relevant Affected Borrower),
that the Notifying Lender has specified to be necessary to compensate the Notifying Lender for the increased cost. 
  

	24.5	Notice of prepayment 

 If the Borrowers are (or, subject to Clause 29.2, each applicable
Affected Borrower is) not willing to continue to compensate the Notifying Lender for the increased cost under Clause 24.4, the Borrowers (or each Affected Borrower) may give the Facility Agent not less than 15 days’ notice of its intention to
prepay the Notifying Lender’s Contribution at the end of an Interest Period. 

  
 83 

	24.6	Prepayment; termination of Commitment 

 A notice under Clause 24.5 shall be irrevocable;
the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Notifying Lender of the Borrowers’ (or each relevant Affected Borrower’s) notice of intended prepayment; and: 
  

	(a)	on the date on which the Facility Agent serves that notice, the Commitment of the Notifying Lender shall be cancelled; and 

  

	(b)	on the date specified in its notice of intended prepayment, the Borrowers (or each relevant Affected Borrower) shall prepay (without premium or penalty) the Notifying Lender’s Contribution, together with accrued
interest thereon at the applicable rate plus the Margin. 

  

	24.7	Application of prepayment 

 Clause 8 shall apply in relation to the prepayment. 

 

	25	SET-OFF 

  

	25.1	Application of credit balances

Event of Default and without prior notice: 
  

	(a)	apply any balance (whether or not then due) which at any time stands to the credit of any account in the name of the Borrowers at any office in any country of that Creditor Party in or towards satisfaction of any sum
then due from the Borrowers to that Creditor Party under any of the Finance Documents; and 

  

	(b)	for that purpose: 

  

	 	(i)	break, or alter the maturity of, all or any part of a deposit of the Borrowers; 

  

	 	(ii)	convert or translate all or any part of a deposit or other credit balance into Dollars; and 

  

	 	(iii)	enter into any other transaction or make any entry with regard to the credit balance which the Creditor Party concerned considers appropriate. 

 

	25.2	Existing rights unaffected 

 No Creditor Party shall be obliged to exercise any of its
rights under Clause 25.1; and those rights shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts, charge, lien or other right or remedy to which a Creditor Party is
entitled (whether under the general law or any document). 
  

	25.3	Sums deemed due to a Lender 

 For the purposes of this Clause 25, a sum payable by the
Borrowers to the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee for distribution to, or for the account of, a Lender shall be treated as a sum due to that Lender; and each Lender’s proportion of a sum so payable for distribution to, or for the account
of, the Lenders shall be treated as a sum due to such Lender. 
  

	25.4	No Security Interest 

 This Clause 25 gives the Creditor Parties a contractual right of set-off only, and does not create any equitable charge or other Security Interest over any credit balance of the Borrowers.

	26	TRANSFERS AND CHANGES IN LENDING OFFICES 

  

	26.1	Transfer by the Borrowers 

 The Borrowers may not assign or transfer any of their rights,
liabilities or obligations under any Finance Document. 
  

	26.2	Transfer by a Lender 

 Subject to Clause 26.4, a Lender (the “Transferor Lender”) may,
at any time, cause: 
  

	(a)	its rights in respect of all or part of its Contribution; or 

  

	(b)	its obligations in respect of all or part of its Commitment; or 

  

	(c)	a combination of (a) and (b); or

 to be
syndicated to or, (in the case of its rights) assigned, pledged or transferred to, or (in the case of its obligations) pledged or assumed by, any third party (a “Transferee Lender”) by delivering to the Facility Agent a completed
certificate in the form set out in Schedule 4 with any modifications approved or required by the Facility Agent (a “Transfer Certificate”) executed by the Transferor Lender and the Transferee Lender. 

However any rights and obligations of the Transferor Lender in its capacity as Facility Agent or Security Trustee will have to be dealt with
separately in accordance with the Agency and Trust Agreement. All costs and expenses relating to a transfer effected pursuant to this Clause 26.2 shall be borne by the Transferee Lender. 

A transfer pursuant to this Clause 26.2 shall: 
  

	 	(i)	be effected without the consent of the Borrowers: 

  

	 	(A)	following the occurrence of an Event of Default; 

  

	 	(B)	if such transfer is to a subsidiary or any other company or financial institution which is in the same ownership or control as one of the Lenders; and 

 

	 	(ii)	in all other circumstances, require the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) which should be provided within 5 days otherwise such consent shall be deemed to
have been provided. 

  

	26.3	Transfer Certificate, delivery and notification 

 As soon as reasonably practicable after
a Transfer Certificate is delivered to the Facility Agent, it shall (unless it has reason to believe that the Transfer Certificate may be defective):

the Transferee Lender accordingly; 

  

	(b)	sign the Transfer Certificate on behalf of itself the Borrowers, the Security Parties, the Security Trustee and each of the other Lenders and the Swap Bank; 

 

	(c)	on behalf of the Transferee Lender, send to the Borrowers and each Security Party letters or faxes notifying them of the Transfer Certificate and attaching a copy of it; and 

  
 85 

	(d)	send to the Transferee Lender copies of the letters or faxes sent under paragraph (b) above. 

  

	26.4	Effective Date of Transfer Certificate 

 A Transfer Certificate becomes effective on the
date, if any, specified in the Transfer Certificate as its effective date Provided that it is signed by the Facility Agent under Clause 26.3 on or before that date. 
  

	26.5	No transfer without Transfer Certificate 

 No assignment or transfer of any right or
obligation of a Lender under any Finance Document is binding on, or effective in relation to, the Borrowers, any Security Party, the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee unless it is effected, evidenced or perfected by a Transfer Certificate. 

 

	26.6	Lender re-organisation; waiver of Transfer Certificate 

However, if a Lender enters into any merger, de-merger or other reorganisation as a result of which all
its rights or obligations vest in another person (the “successor”), the Facility Agent may, if it sees fit, by notice to the successor and the Borrowers and the Security Trustee waive the need for the execution and delivery of a
Transfer Certificate; and, upon service of the Facility Agent’s notice, the successor shall become a Lender with the same Commitment and Contribution as were held by the predecessor Lender. 

 

	26.7	Effect of Transfer Certificate 

 A Transfer Certificate takes effect in accordance with
English law as follows: 
  

	(a)	to the extent specified in the Transfer Certificate, all rights and interests (present, future or contingent) which the Transferor Lender has under or by virtue of the Finance Documents (other than a Master Agreement)
are assigned to the Transferee Lender absolutely, free of any defects in the Transferor Lender’s title and of any rights or equities which the Borrowers or any Security Party had against the Transferor Lender; 

 

	(b)	the Transferor Lender’s Commitment is discharged to the extent specified in the Transfer Certificate; 

  

	(c)	the Transferee Lender becomes a Lender with the Contribution previously held by the Transferor Lender and a Commitment of an amount specified in the Transfer Certificate; 

 

	(d)	the Transferee Lender becomes bound by all the provisions of the Finance Documents (other than a Master Agreement) which are applicable to the Lenders generally, including those about
pro-rata sharing and the exclusion of liability on the part of, and the indemnification of, the Facility Agent and the Security Trustee and, to the extent that the Transferee Lender becomes bound by those
provisions (other than those relating to exclusion of liability), the Transferor Lender ceases to be bound by them; 

  

	(e)	any part of the Loan which the Transferee Lender advances after the Transfer Certificate’s effective date ranks in point of priority and security in the same way as it would have ranked had it been advanced by the
transferor, assuming that any defects in the transferor’s title and any rights or equities of the Borrowers or any Security Party against the Transferor Lender had not existed; 

 

	(f)	the Transferee Lender becomes entitled to all the rights under the Finance Documents (other than a Master Agreement) which are applicable to the Lenders generally, including but not limited to those relating to the
Majority Lenders and those under Clause 5.7 and Clause 20, and to the extent that the Transferee Lender becomes entitled to such rights, the Transferor Lender ceases to be entitled to them; and 

  
 86 

	(g)	in respect of any breach of a warranty, undertaking, condition or other provision of a Finance Document or any misrepresentation made in or in connection with a Finance Document (other than a Master Agreement), the
Transferee Lender shall be entitled to recover damages by reference to the loss incurred by it as a result of the breach or misrepresentation, irrespective of whether the original Lender would have incurred a loss of that kind or amount.

 The rights and equities of the Borrowers or any Security Party referred to above include, but are not limited to, any
right of set off and any other kind of cross-claim. 
  

	26.8	Maintenance of register of Lenders 

 During the Security Period, the Facility Agent shall
maintain a register in which it shall record the name, Commitment, Contribution and administrative details (including the lending office) from time to time of each Lender holding a Transfer Certificate and the effective date (in accordance with
Clause 26.4 or, as the case may be, Clause 2.5) of the Transfer Certificate; and the Facility Agent shall make the register available for inspection by any Lender, the Security Trustee and the Borrowers during normal banking hours, subject to
receiving at least 3 Business Days prior notice. 
  

	26.9	Reliance on register of Lenders 

 The entries on that register shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive in determining the identities of the Lenders and the amounts of their Commitments and Contributions and the effective dates of Transfer Certificates and may be relied upon by the Facility Agent and the other parties to
the Finance Documents for all purposes relating to the Finance Documents. 
  

	26.10	Authorisation of Facility Agent and conditions to sign Transfer Certificates 

 The
Borrowers, the Security Trustee, each Lender and the Swap Bank irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to sign Transfer Certificates on its behalf. The Borrowers and each Security Party irrevocably agree to the transfer procedures set out in this
Clause 26 and to the extent the cooperation of the Borrowers and/or any Security Party shall be required to effect any such transfer, the Borrowers and such Security Party shall take all necessary steps to afford such cooperation.

requirements are complied with under all applicable laws and regulations in connection with the Transferee Lender.

 A
Lender may sub-participate all or any part of its rights and/or obligations under or in connection with the Finance Documents (other than a Master Agreement) without the consent of, or any notice to, the
Borrowers, any Security Party, the Facility Agent or the Security Trustee or any other Creditor Party; and the Lenders may assign, in any manner and terms agreed by the Majority Lenders, the Facility Agent and the Security Trustee, all or any part
of those rights to an insurer or surety who has become subrogated to them. 

  
 87 

	26.13	Disclosure of information

 93 

	28.6	Valid notices 

 A notice under or in connection with a Finance Document shall not be
invalid by reason that its contents or the manner of serving it do not comply with the requirements of this Agreement or, where appropriate, any other Finance Document under which it is served if: 

 

	(a)	the failure to serve it in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or other Finance Document, as the case may be, has not caused any party to suffer any significant loss or prejudice; or

  

	(b)	in the case of incorrect and/or incomplete contents, it should have been reasonably clear to the party on which the notice was served what the correct or missing particulars should have been. 

 

	28.7	Electronic communication 

 Any communication to be made between the Facility Agent and a
Lender or the Swap Bank under or in connection with the Finance Documents may be made by electronic mail or other electronic means, if the Facility Agent and the relevant Creditor Party:

	(a)	Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 29.1, upon the occurrence of a Dropdown:

borrowing and repayment of Loan) and Clause 22.2 (Grossing-up for taxes), the Affected Borrower(s) shall be joint and severally liable for a pro-rata
share of such Unscheduled Amount corresponding to the Relevant Proportion. For the purposes of claiming any such Unscheduled Amount, a demand made upon the Borrowers for the full amount of the Unscheduled Amount shall be deemed to be a demand served
on each Borrower (including on any Affected Borrower in the Relevant Proportion of such Unscheduled Amount) for the amount of such Unscheduled Amount for which each such Borrower is liable. 

 

	(c)	This Clause shall not relieve the Borrowers or any other Security Parties from: 

  

	 	(i)	the consequences of the Borrowers (or any of them) failing to meet their respective obligations under the Affected Clauses at any time; or

 95 

	29.4	Principal debtors

any Finance Document; or
