The Borrowers agree to pay interest on each Advance or part thereof in respect of each Interest Period relating thereto on each Interest
Payment Date (or, in the case of Interest Periods of more than six (6) months, by instalments, the first of such instalments six (6) months from the commencement of the Interest Period and the subsequent instalments at intervals of six
(6) months and on the last day of such Interest Period) at the rate per annum determined by the Bank to be the aggregate of (a) the Margin in respect of that Advance and (b) LIBOR for such period.

The Borrowers may by notice received by the Bank not later than 10 a.m. on the second Banking Day before the start of each Interest Period
request that such Interest Period shall have a length of three (3), six (6) or twelve (12) months or such other longer period as the Borrowers may select and the Bank may, subject to the same being available in the London Interbank Market,
agree and if the Borrowers wish to specify an Interest Period of more than 12 months, they must give at least 5 Banking Days prior notice thereof.

The length of each Interest Period shall be as requested by the Borrowers under clause 3.2 but so that:

Drawdown Date and terminate simultaneously with the Interest Period which is then current for the Loan and each subsequent Interest Period shall start the day falling the day after the last day of the previous Interest Period; 

 

	3.3.3	 if any Interest Period would otherwise overrun a Repayment Date, then, in the case of the last Repayment Date,
such Interest Period shall end on the last Repayment Date, and in the case of any other Repayment Date the relevant Advance shall be divided into parts so that there is one part in the amount of the repayment instalment due on each Repayment Date
falling in that Interest Period and having an Interest Period ending on the relevant Repayment Date and another part consisting of the balance of the relevant Advance having an Interest Period ascertained in accordance with the other provisions of
this clause 3; and

If the Bank fails to receive any sum whatsoever on its due date for payment under any of the Security Documents, the Borrowers must pay
interest on such sum on demand from the due date up to the date of actual payment (as well after as before judgment) at a rate determined by the Bank under this clause 3.4. The period starting on such due date and ending on such date of payment
shall be divided into successive periods of not more than one (1) month as selected by the Bank each of which (other than the first, which shall start on such due date) shall start on the last day of the preceding such period. The rate of
interest applicable to each such period shall be the aggregate (as determined by the Bank) of (a) two (2.0) per cent per annum, (b) the Margin and (c) LIBOR for such period. Such interest shall be due and payable on the last day of
each such period as determined by the Bank and each such day shall be treated as an Interest Payment Date, provided that if such unpaid sum is an amount of principal which became due and payable, by reason of a declaration by the Bank under clause
10.2 or a prepayment pursuant to clauses 4.3, 4.4, 8.2 or 12.1, on a date other than an Interest Payment Date relating thereto, the first such period selected by the Bank shall be of a length equal to the period between the due date of such
principal sum and such Interest Payment Date and interest shall be payable on such principal sum during such period at a rate of two (2.0) per cent above the rate applicable immediately before it shall have become so due and payable. If, for the
reasons specified in clause 3.6.1, the Bank is unable to determine a rate in accordance with the provisions of this clause 3.4, interest on any sum not paid on its due date for payment shall be calculated at a rate determined by the Bank to be two
(2.0) per cent per annum above the aggregate of the Margin and the cost of funds to the Bank compounded at such intervals as the Bank selects. 

  
 23 

	3.5	 Notification of Interest Periods and interest rate

clause 3.

	 	(a)	 no LIBOR rate is quoted or available; or 

 

	 	(b)	 adequate and fair means do not exist for determining LIBOR during such Interest Period; or

  

	 	(c)	 the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits in the London Interbank Market would be in excess of LIBOR;

 the Bank shall promptly give notice (a “Determination Notice”) thereof to the Borrowers. A
Determination Notice shall give brief details of the circumstances giving rise to its issue. After the giving of any Determination Notice any undrawn amount of the Commitment may not be borrowed until notice to the contrary is given to the Borrowers
by the Bank; 
  

	3.6.2	 upon a Determination Notice being given, the Borrowers and the Bank shall discuss the same in good faith in
order to agree an alternative basis for maintaining the Loan, but if they are unable to agree an alternative basis within 30 days of the date of the Determination Notice, then 40 days after the Determination Notice being given, the Bank shall
certify an alternative basis (such basis, or if agreed, the basis agreed by the Bank and the Borrowers, the “Substitute Basis”) for maintaining the Loan. The Substitute Basis may include alternative interest periods or alternative rates of
interest but must include a margin above the cost of funds to the Bank equivalent to the Margin. Each Substitute Basis certified to the Borrowers or agreed shall take effect in accordance with its terms from the date specified in the Determination
Notice until such time as the Bank notifies the Borrowers that none of the circumstances specified in clause 3.6.1 continues to exist whereupon the normal interest rate fixing provisions of this Agreement shall again apply. If the Borrowers do not
agree with any Substitute Basis certified by the Bank if there is no agreement between the parties, then the Borrower may prepay the Loan in full and the rates of interest which shall apply shall be the rate of interest which applied to the Interest
Period preceding the Determination Notice, and the terms of Clause 4.6 and 4.7 shall apply to any such prepayment

or costs certified by the Bank to have been incurred by it by reason of any failure of the Borrowers to make any such deduction or withholding or by reason of any increased payment not being made on the due date for such payment. The Borrowers must

but remains unpaid; 

  

	6.8.5	 fifthly, in or towards payment to the Bank for any loss suffered by reason of any such payment in respect of
principal not being effected on an Interest Payment Date relating to the part of the Loan repaid and which amounts are so payable under this Agreement; and 

  

	6.8.6	 sixthly in or towards payment to the relevant person of any other sum which shall have become due under any of
the Security Documents but remains unpaid (and, if more than one such sum so remains unpaid, on a pro rata basis).

	 	(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 Security 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 Security Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable passthru percentage is 100%, 

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

maintenance relates to the Commitment or deposits obtained by it to fund the whole or part thereof and to the extent such cost or loss is not recoverable by the Bank under clause 11.2. 

 

	12	 UNLAWFULNESS AND INCREASED COSTS MITIGATION 

 

	12.1	 Unlawfulness 

Regardless of any other provision of this Agreement, in the event that the Bank notifies the Borrowers that by reason of: 

 

	 	(a)	 the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or regulation or any change in the interpretation or
application thereof; or 

  

	 	(b)	 compliance by the Bank with any directive, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) of
any central bank or Government Entity 

 it becomes unlawful or it is prohibited by or contrary to such directive request
or requirement for the Bank to maintain or give effect to any of its obligations in connection howsoever with this Agreement then (i) the Commitment shall be reduced to zero and (ii) the Borrowers shall be obliged to prepay the Loan either
immediately or on a future date (specified in the Bank’s notice) not being earlier than the latest date permitted by the relevant law, regulation, directive, request or requirement with interest and commitment commission accrued to the date of
prepayment and all other sums payable whensoever by the Borrowers under this Agreement. 
  

	12.2	 Increased costs 

If the Bank certifies to the Borrowers that at any time the effect of any applicable law, regulation or regulatory requirements or the
interpretation or application thereof or any change therein (including the imposition upon whomsoever of Taxes on payments hereunder or otherwise howsoever in connection with this Agreement other than taxes on the overall net income of the Bank) or
the effect of complying with any applicable directive, request or requirement (whether or not having the force of law) of any central bank or Government Entity (including, but not limited to, the 1988 Basle Convergence Agreement and including any
kind of liquidity, stock or capital adequacy controls or other banking or monetary controls or requirements which affect the manner in which the Bank or its holding company allocates capital resources to the Bank’s obligations hereunder) is to:

  

	12.2.1	 subject the Bank to Taxes or change the basis of Taxation of the Bank relating to any payment under any of the
Security Documents (other than Taxes or Taxation on the overall net income of the Bank imposed in the jurisdiction in which its principal or lending office under this Agreement is located); and/or 

  
 55 

	12.2.2	 increase the cost to, or impose an additional cost on, the Bank or its holding company in making or keeping the
Commitment available or maintaining or funding all or part of the Loan; and/or 

  

	12.2.3	 reduce the amount payable or the effective return to the Bank under any of the Security Documents; and/or

  

	12.2.4	 reduce the Bank’s or its holding company’s rate of return on its overall capital by reason of a
change in the manner in which it is required to allocate capital resources to the Bank’s obligations under any of the Security Documents; and/or 

  

	12.2.5	 require the Bank or its holding company to make a payment or forgo a return on or calculated by reference to
any amount received or receivable by the Bank under any of the Security Documents; and/or 

  

	12.2.6	 require the Bank or its holding company to incur or sustain a loss (including a loss of future potential
profits) by reason of being obliged to deduct all or part of the Commitment or the Loan from its capital for regulatory purposes, 

then and in each such case (subject to clause 12.3) the Borrowers must on demand either: 

 

	 	(a)	 pay to the Bank the amount which the Bank certifies (in a certificate setting forth the basis of the
computation of such amount but not including any matters which the Bank or its holding company regards as confidential) is required to compensate the Bank and/or (as the case may be) its holding company for such liability to Taxes, cost, reduction,
payment, forgone return or loss; or 

  
 56 

	 	(b)	 prepay the Loan, in respect of which prepayment the terms of clause 4.5 shall apply. 

For the purposes of this clause 12.2 and clause 12.4 “holding company” means the company or entity (if any) within the
consolidated supervision of which the Bank is included. 
  

	12.3	 Exception 

Nothing in clause 12.2 shall entitle the Bank to receive any amount relating to compensation for any such liability to Taxes, increased or
additional cost, reduction, payment, foregone return or loss to the extent that the same is the subject of an additional payment under clause 6.6.

the Bank directs to the contrary, be paid to its Earnings Account, Provided however that if any of the moneys paid to either Earnings Account are payable in a currency other than USD, they shall be paid to a
sub-account of that Earnings Account denominated in such currency (except that if the Borrowers fail to open such a sub-account, the Bank shall then convert such moneys
into USD at the Bank’s spot rate of exchange at the relevant time for the purchase of USD with such currency and the term “spot rate of exchange” shall include any premium and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase
of USD with such currency).

each Repayment Date and/or on each day that interest is payable on the Loan or an Advance pursuant to clause 3.1, in or towards payment to the Bank of the instalment then falling due for repayment or, as the case may be, the amount of interest then
due. Each such application by the Bank shall constitute a payment in or towards satisfaction of the Borrowers’ corresponding payment obligations under this Agreement but shall be strictly without prejudice to the obligations of the Borrowers to
make any such payment to the extent that the aforesaid application by the Bank is insufficient to meet the same. 

  

	14.4.3	 Unless the Bank otherwise agrees in writing and subject to clause 14.4.2, Borrowers shall not be entitled to
withdraw any moneys from the Retention Account at any time during the Facility Period.

 64 

	17.3	 Indemnity 

The Borrowers undertake to keep the Bank fully indemnified on demand against all claims, damages, losses, costs and expenses arising from any

be valid and enforceable against the other Borrower on any ground whatsoever, whether or not known to the Bank including, without limitation, any irregular exercise or absence of any corporate power or lack of authority of, or breach of duty by, any
person purporting to act on behalf of the other Borrower (or any legal or other limitation, whether under the Limitation Acts or otherwise or any disability or death, bankruptcy, unsoundness of mind, insolvency, liquidation, dissolution, winding up,
administration, receivership, amalgamation, reconstruction or any other incapacity of any person whatsoever (including, in the case of a partnership, a termination or change in the composition of the partnership) or any change of name or style or

partnership) or any change of name or style or constitution of any Borrower or any other person liable; 

  

	17.4.2	 the Bank granting any time, indulgence or concession to, or compounding with, discharging, releasing or varying
the liability of, any Borrower or any other person liable or renewing, determining, varying or increasing any accommodation, facility or transaction or otherwise dealing with the same in any manner whatsoever or concurring in, accepting, varying any
compromise, arrangement or settlement or omitting to claim or enforce payment from any Borrower or any other person liable; or

available to them for enforcing any of the Security Documents against any Borrower or any other person liable and no action taken or omitted by the Bank in connection with any such security or other means of payment will discharge, reduce, prejudice
or affect the liability of the Borrowers under the Security Documents to which any of them is, or is to be, a party.

	17.6	 Waiver of Borrowers’ rights 

Each Borrower agrees with the Bank that, throughout the Facility Period, it will not, without the prior written consent of the Bank: 

 

	17.6.1	 exercise any right of subrogation, reimbursement and indemnity against the other Borrower or any other person
liable under the Security Documents; 

  

	17.6.2	 demand or accept repayment in whole or in part of any Indebtedness now or hereafter due to such Borrower from
the other Borrower or from any other person liable for such Indebtedness or demand or accept any guarantee against financial loss or any document or instrument created or evidencing an Encumbrance in respect of the same or dispose of the same;

  

	17.6.3	 take any steps to enforce any right against the other Borrower or any other person liable in respect of any
such moneys; or 

  

	17.6.4	 claim any set-off or counterclaim against the other Borrower or any
other person liable or claim or prove in competition with the Bank in the liquidation of the other Borrower or any other person liable or have the benefit of, or share in, any payment from or composition with, the other Borrower or any other person
liable or any security granted under any Security Document now or hereafter held by the Bank for any moneys owing under this Agreement or for the obligations or liabilities of any other person liable but so that, if so directed by the Bank, it will
prove for the whole or any part of its claim in the liquidation of the other Borrower or other person liable on terms that the benefit of such proof and all money received by it in respect thereof shall be held on trust for the Bank and applied in
or towards discharge of any moneys owing under this Agreement in such manner as the Bank shall require. 

  

	18	 GOVERNING LAW  

 

	18.1	 Law 

This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it is governed
by and shall be construed in accordance with English law. 
  

	19	 JURISDICTION 

  

	19.1	 Exclusive jurisdiction 

For the benefit of the Bank, and subject to clause 19.4 below, the Borrowers hereby irrevocably agree that the courts of England shall have
exclusive jurisdiction: 
  

	19.1.1	 to settle any disputes or other matters whatsoever arising under or in connection with this Agreement or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with this Agreement and any disputes or other such matters arising in connection with the negotiation, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any
part thereof, whether the alleged liability shall arise under the laws of England or under the laws of some other country and regardless of whether a particular cause of action may successfully be brought in the English courts; and

  
 66 

	19.1.2	 to grant interim remedies or other provisional or protective relief. 

 

	19.2	 Submission and service of process 

The Borrowers accordingly irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of the English courts. Without prejudice to any other mode
of service each Borrower: 
  

	19.2.1	 irrevocably empowers and appoints HFW Nominees Limited at present of Friary Court, 65 Crutched Friars, London
EC3N 2AE, England as its agent to receive and accept on its behalf any process or other document relating to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with this Agreement; 

 

	19.2.2	 agrees to maintain such an agent for service of process in England from the date hereof until the end of the
Facility Period; 

  

	19.2.3	 agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the Borrowers of service of process will not invalidate the
proceedings concerned; 

  

	19.2.4	 without prejudice to the effectiveness of service of process on its agent under clause 19.2.1 above but as an
alternative method, consents to the service of process relating to any such proceedings by mailing or delivering a copy of the process to its address for the time being applying under clause 16.2; 

 

	19.2.5	 agrees that if the appointment of any person mentioned in clause 19.2.1 ceases to be effective, the Borrowers
shall immediately appoint a further person in England to accept service of process on its behalf in England and, failing such appointment with in seven (7) days the Bank shall thereupon be entitled and is hereby irrevocably authorised by the
Borrowers in those circumstances to appoint such person by notice to the Borrowers. 

  

	19.3	 Forum non conveniens and enforcement abroad 

The Borrowers: 
  

	19.3.1	 waive any right and agree not to apply to the English court or other court in any jurisdiction whatsoever to
stay or strike out any proceedings commenced in England on the ground that England is an inappropriate forum and/or that proceedings have been or will be started in any other jurisdiction in connection with any dispute or related matter falling
within clause 19.1; and 

  

	19.3.2	 agree that a judgment or order of an English court in a dispute or other matter falling within clause 19.1
shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers and may be enforced against it in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 

  

	19.4	 Right of Bank, but not Borrowers, to bring proceedings in any other jurisdiction 

 

	19.4.1	 nothing in this clause 19 limits the right of the Bank to bring proceedings, including third party proceedings,
against the Borrowers or any of them, or to apply for interim remedies, in connection with this Agreement in any other court and/or concurrently in more than one jurisdiction; 

  
 67 

	19.4.2	 the obtaining by the Bank of judgment in one jurisdiction shall not prevent the Bank from bringing or
continuing proceedings in any other jurisdiction, whether or not these shall be founded on the same cause of action. 

  

	19.5	 Enforceability despite invalidity of Agreement 

The jurisdiction agreement contained in this clause 19 shall be severable from the rest of this Agreement and shall remain valid, binding and
in full force and shall continue to apply notwithstanding this Agreement or any part thereof being held to be avoided, rescinded, terminated, discharged, frustrated, invalid, unenforceable, illegal and/or otherwise of no effect for any reason. 

 

	19.6	 Effect in relation to claims by and against non-parties

  

	19.6.1	 for the purpose of this clause “Foreign Proceedings” shall mean any Proceedings except proceedings
brought or pursued in England arising out of or in connection with or in any way related to any of the Security Documents or any assets subject thereto or any action of any kind whatsoever taken by the Bank pursuant thereto or which would, if
brought by the Borrowers or any of them against the Bank, have been required to be brought in the English courts; 

  

	19.6.2	 no Borrower shall bring or pursue any Foreign Proceedings against the Bank and each Borrower shall use its best
endeavours to prevent persons not party to this Agreement from bringing or pursuing any Foreign Proceedings against the Bank; 

  

	19.6.3	 If, for any reason whatsoever, any Security Party and/or any third party brings or pursues against the Bank any
Foreign Proceedings, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Bank on demand in respect of any and all claims, losses, damages, demands, causes of action, liabilities, costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, legal costs) of whatsoever nature
howsoever arising from or in connection with such Foreign Proceedings which the Bank certifies as having been incurred by it; 

  

	19.6.4	 the Bank and the Borrowers hereby agree and declare that the benefit of this clause 19 shall extend to and may
be enforced by any officer, employee, agent or business associate of the Bank against whom any Borrower brings a claim in connection howsoever with (i) any of the Security Documents or any assets subject thereto or (ii) any action of any
kind whatsoever taken by, or on behalf of or for the purported benefit of the Bank pursuant thereto, or which, if it were brought against the Bank, would fall within the material scope of clause 19.1. In those circumstances this clause 19 shall be
read and construed as if references to the Bank were references to such officer, employee, agent or business associate, as the case may be. 

IN WITNESS whereof the parties to this Agreement have caused this Agreement to be duly executed on the date first above written.
