Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, waiver, notice or other communication given or made by the Parent under this Agreement, or in connection with this Agreement (whether or not known to any Obligor) shall be binding for all purposes on all other Obligors as if the other Obligors had expressly made, given or concurred with the same.

Repayment and roll-over of Revolving Facility Loans
The Borrower shall repay each Revolving Facility Loan in full on the last day of its Interest Period, however so that where a Revolving Facility Loan (the “New Revolving Facility Loan”) is, subject to and in accordance with the other terms of this Agreement, to be made on a day which another Revolving Facility Loan (the “Maturing Revolving Facility Loan”) is due to be repaid, then:

#    25 (25)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan shall be deemed to be repaid on the last day of its Interest Period to the extent that the amount of the New Revolving Facility Loan is equal to or greater than the amount of the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan; and
to that extent, the amount of the New Revolving Facility Loan shall be deemed to have been credited to the account of the Borrower, and the Lenders shall only be obliged to make available an amount equal to the amount by which amount the New Revolving Facility Loan exceeds the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan.
If the Borrower has not delivered a Utilisation Request in respect of a Maturing Revolving Facility Loan in accordance with Clause 5.1 (Delivery of a Utilisation Request), the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan shall, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, be automatically rolled over with an Interest Period of three (3) months provided that the conditions set out in Clause 4.3 (Further conditions precedent) are fulfilled in the reasonable opinion of the Required Majority.
For the avoidance of doubt, the above automatic rollover mechanism requires the Borrower to deliver a Utilisation Request in the amount of USD 0, within 11.00 (Oslo time) three (3) Business Days prior to the relevant rollover date,  if no automatic rollover is to take place.

Payment of interest 

#    29 (29)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Any interest accruing under this Clause 9.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligors on demand by the Agent. Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable. 
Notification of rates of interest
The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.
INTEREST PERIODS

For the Revolving Facility, the Borrower may select an Interest Period of thee (3) or six (6) months, or any other period as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Agent (on behalf of all the Lenders). 
An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date, but shall be shortened so that it ends on the Final Maturity Date.
Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the relevant Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period. 
Non-Business Day 
If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Notification of Interest Periods
The Agent will notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Interest Periods determined in accordance with this Clause 10.
CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST 
Market disruption
If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to the Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of the Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of: 
the Applicable Margin; and 
the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select.
In this Agreement, “Market Disruption Event” means:
at or about 11:00 a.m. (London time) on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period LIBOR is not available; or
before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loan exceed fifty per cent (50%) of the Loan) that the cost to it or them of obtaining matching deposits in the London interbank market would be in excess of LIBOR.
Alternative basis of interest or funding
If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Borrower so requires, the Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to this Clause 11.2 shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties. 
Break Costs 
The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by a Finance Party, pay to that Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of the Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for the Loan or Unpaid Sum.
Each Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Cost for any Interest Period in which they accrue.
FEES
Commitment fee 
The Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for distribution among the Lenders) a commitment fee of forty per cent (40%) of the Applicable Margin calculated for each Facility on the Available Commitment of each Lender accruing from the Closing Date and up until the earlier of (i) the end of the Availability Period for the relevant Facility and (ii) the date on which the relevant Facility has been fully drawn (for the Term Loan Facility) or cancelled in whole, payable quarterly in arrears on each Quarter Date and on the last day of the Availability Period or such other date upon which the relevant Facility is fully drawn (for the Term Loan Facility) or cancelled in whole. No commitment fee is payable to the Agent (for the account 

#    31 (31)

The Borrower shall pay such other fees as set out in the Fee Letters.
TAX GROSS-UP AND INDEMNITIES
Taxes
No withholding 
All payments by the Obligors under the Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or any other governmental or public payment imposed by the laws of any jurisdiction from which or through which such payment is made, unless a Tax Deduction or withholding is required by law. 
Tax gross-up
The relevant Obligor shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction or withholding (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction or withholding) notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower and that Lender.
If a Tax Deduction or withholding is required by law to be made by an Obligor:
the amount of the payment due from the Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction or withholding) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction or withholding had been required; and
the Obligor shall make that Tax Deduction or withholding within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.
Within thirty (30) days of making either a Tax Deduction or withholding or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction or withholding, the Obligor shall deliver to the Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction or withholding has been made and (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 
Tax indemnity
The Borrower shall (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent) pay to the Agent for the account of the relevant Finance Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which a Finance Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of any Tax by such Finance Party in respect of a Finance Document, save for any Tax on Overall Net Income assessed on a Finance Party or to the extent such loss, liability or cost is compensated under Clause 13.1.2 (Tax gross-up), Clause 13.5 (FATCA Deduction and gross-up by Obligor), Clause 13.6(b) or Clause 13.6(d).
VAT
All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Document shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT. If VAT is chargeable, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Finance Party (in addition to the amount required pursuant to the Finance Documents) an amount equal to such VAT.

not a FATCA Exempt Party; and
supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable "passthru payment percentage" or other information required under the US Treasury Regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA.
If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to 13.4(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.
Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

any law or regulation;
any fiduciary duty; or
any duty of confidentiality. 
If a Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (b) above applies), then:
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
if that Party failed to confirm its applicable "passthru payment percentage" then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable "passthru payment percentage" is 100%,
until (in each case) such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.
FATCA Deduction and gross-up by Obligor
If an Obligor is required to make a FATCA Deduction, that Obligor shall make that FATCA Deduction and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by FATCA.
If a FATCA Deduction is required 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 FATCA Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no FATCA Deduction had been required.
The Parent shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a FATCA Deduction) notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Finance Party shall notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Finance Party. If the Agent receives such notification from a Finance Party it shall notify the Parent and that Obligor.

#    33 (33)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

FATCA Deduction by a Finance Party
Each Finance Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required by FATCA to make, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Finance 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. A Finance 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 the basis of such FATCA Deduction) shall notify that Party and the Agent.
If the Agent is required to make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Finance Party under Clause 30.2 (Distributions by the Agent) which relates to a payment by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after the Agent has made such FATCA Deduction), leaves the Agent with an amount equal to the payment which would have been made by the Agent if no FATCA Deduction had been required. The Agent will not be obliged to pay or advance such amount before actually receiving the increased amount from the relevant Obligor. 
The Agent shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment to a Finance Party under Clause 30.2 (Distributions by the Agent) which relates to a payment by an Obligor (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such a FATCA Deduction) notify the relevant Obligor and the relevant Finance Party.
An Obligor shall (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent) pay to a Finance Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Finance Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered by that Finance Party as a result of another Finance Party making a FATCA Deduction in respect of a payment due to it under a Finance Document. This paragraph shall not apply to the extent a loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under paragraph (b) above.
A Finance Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (d) above shall promptly notify the Agent of the FATCA Deduction which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall notify the Borrower.

EXECUTION VERSION

a reduction of any amount due and payable under any Finance Document, 
which is incurred or suffered by a Finance Party or any of its Affiliates to the extent that it is attributable to that Finance Party having entered into its Commitments or funding or performing its obligations under any Finance Document. 
A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to this Clause 14.1 shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower. Each Finance Party shall as soon as practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a confirmation showing the amount of its Increased Costs.

attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by an Obligor or a Finance Party, and compensated for by Clause 13.6(b) or Clause 13.6(d); or
attributable to gross negligence or the wilful breach by the relevant Finance Party or its Affiliates of any law or regulation.
OTHER INDEMNITIES 
Currency indemnity 
If any sum due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (a “Sum”), or any order, judgement or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First Currency”) in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second Currency”) for the purpose of:
making or filing a claim or proof against the Borrower; or
obtaining or enforcing an order, judgement or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,
the Borrower shall as an independent obligation, within three (3) Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party to whom that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum.

There is current, pending or threatened any claims, litigation, arbitration or administrative proceedings against any Obligor which in the opinion of the Agent or the Required Majority has or could reasonably be expected to have, if adversely determined, a Material Adverse Effect.
Failure to comply with final judgment
Any of the Obligors fails within five (5) Business Days after becoming obliged to do so to comply with or pay any sum in an amount exceeding USD 20,000,000 (or the equivalent in any other currencies) due from it under any final judgement or any final order (being one against which there is no right of appeal or if a right of appeal exists the time limit for making such appeal has expired and no appeal has been dismissed) made or given by any court of competent jurisdiction, provided, however, that such event shall not be deemed to constitute an Event of Default if the Obligor is entitled to insurance cover for the whole of such sum and the relevant insurers have confirmed liability and undertaken to make payment of the whole of such sum in writing to the person(s) entitled to payment and it is likely (in the reasonable opinion of the Required Majority) that the insurers will be able to make such payment within sixty (60) days. 
Acceleration 
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing, the Agent may, and shall if so directed by the Required Majority, by written notice to the Borrower:
cancel the Total Commitments whereupon they shall immediately be cancelled;
declare that all or part of the Loan together with accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under the Finance Documents, be either immediately due and payable and/or payable upon demand, whereupon they shall become either immediately due and payable or payable on demand; 
start enforcement in respect of the Security Interests established by the Security Documents; and/or 
without prejudice to any of the other rights of the Lenders take any other action, with or without notice to the Borrower, exercise any other right or pursue any other remedy conferred upon the Agent or the Finance Parties by any of the Finance Documents or by any applicable law or regulation or otherwise as a consequence of such Event of Default.

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Assignments and transfers by the Lenders
A Lender (the “Existing Lender”) may, at any time assign, transfer or have assumed its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents (a “Transfer”), to:
another Existing Lender, an Affiliate of an Existing Lender;
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 (a “New Lender”), subject to consent of the Borrower and the Agent (such consents not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which shall be deemed to have been given fifteen (15) Business Days after being sought unless expressly refused within that period); 
regardless of (b) above, to any New Lender (as described in (b) above) if (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) to the extent that such transfer or assignment is in connection with the implementation of any securitisation, covered bond program or any similar or equivalent transaction; 
in a minimum transfer amount of USD 15,000,000. 
Any assignment and transfer made by any of the Lenders shall be made by way of an assignment and transfer, and shall not constitute a novation. 
Additional conditions of assignment or transfer
An assignment or transfer will only be effective on the performance by the 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 Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender.
Assignment or transfer fee
Unless the Agent otherwise agrees and excluding an assignment or transfer to an Affiliate of a Lender, the New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes place pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of USD three thousand (3,000).
Limitations of responsibility of Existing Lenders
The Obligors’ performance, etc.
Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility to the New Lender for:
the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Finance Documents or any other documents;
the financial condition of the Obligors;
the performance and observance by any of the Obligors of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or
the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Finance Documents or any other document.
New Lender’s own credit appraisal, etc.
Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

#    62 (62)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

has made (and will continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of the Obligors and their 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 in connection with any Finance Document; and
will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Obligors and their related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.
Re-transfer to an Existing Lender, etc.
Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to:
accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 26; or
support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by the Borrower of its obligations under the Finance Documents or otherwise.
Procedure for transfer
Any Transfer shall be effected as follows:
the Existing Lender must notify the Agent of its intention to Transfer all or part of its rights and obligations by delivering a duly completed Transfer Certificate to the Agent duly executed by the Existing Lender and the New Lender;
subject to Clause 26.2 (Assignments and transfers by the Lenders), the Agent shall as soon as reasonably possible after receipt of a Transfer Certificate execute the Transfer Certificate and deliver a copy of the same to each of the Existing Lender and the New Lender; and
subject to Clause 26.2 (Assignments and transfers by the Lenders), the Transfer shall become effective on the Transfer Date.
Effects of the Transfer
On the Transfer Date:
to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents, the Obligors and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations to one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents shall be cancelled (the “Discharged Rights and Obligations”), but the existing obligations owed by the Obligors under the Finance Documents shall not be released;
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 the Obligors and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same instead of the Obligors and the Existing Lender;
the Agent, the New Lender and the other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an original Lender hereunder with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the Transfer and to that extent the Agent and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and
the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”.

#    63 (63)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Further assurances
Each of the Obligors undertakes to procure that in relation to any Transfer, each of the Obligors shall (at its own cost) at the request of the Agent execute such documents as may in the discretion of the Agent be necessary to ensure that the New Lender attains the benefit of the Finance Documents.
Disclosure of information
Any Lender may disclose:
to any of its Affiliates, branches, subsidiaries, its parent company, head office or regional office (together the “Permitted Parties”) and a potential assignee, provided that such disclosure to a potential assignee shall, except if an Event of Default has occurred or is occurring, be subject to the prior written approval by the Borrower if such potential assignee is not an Affiliate of any of the Lenders; 
to an entity or person (or their agent) with whom that Lender enters into (or may potentially enter into) any sub-participation in relation to, or any other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to this Agreement or any of the Obligors, provided that such disclosure shall, except if an Event of Default has occurred or is occurring, be subject to the prior written approval by the Borrower unless made to an Affiliate of any of the Lenders;
to auditors or professional advisers or service providers employed in the normal course of a Permitted Party’s business who are under a duty of confidentiality to the Permitted Parties; 
to any rating agency, insurer or insurance broker of, or direct or indirect provider of credit protection to any Permitted Party; and
to whom, to the extent that, information is required to be disclosed by (i) any law or applicable court or (ii) any governmental, supervisory or regulatory body with jurisdiction over the Permitted Party,
such information about the Obligors and the Finance Documents as that Lender shall consider appropriate.
HEDGING AGREEMENTS
Requirements to Hedging Agreements and payment of hedging liabilities
The Hedging Agreements shall provide that the relevant Hedging Provider shall if so requested by the Agent following the serving of a notice by the Agent in accordance with Clause 25.16 (Acceleration), terminate any transaction entered into under the relevant Hedging Agreement.
Unless and until the date the Agent has served a notice in accordance with Clause 25.16 (Acceleration), no Obligor (and the Parent shall ensure that no member of the Group will) make any payment or distribution in respect of any hedging liability except for scheduled payments arising under the original terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement, or subject to unwinding of transactions thereunder.
If an amount falls due from a Hedge Counterparty to an Obligor on or following an Enforcement Action (as defined in Clause 27.3 (Restrictions on enforcement)) or the termination of any transaction under a Hedging Agreement, that Hedge Counterparty shall pay that amount to the Agent for further application in accordance with Clause 30 (Payment Mechanics).
Hedge Counterparties

#    64 (64)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Hedge Counterparty and the relevant Hedge Counterparty is an Affiliate of a Mandated Lead Arranger and is not a party to that document, the relevant Mandated Lead Arranger shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.
No Hedge Counterparty may assign any of its rights, or transfers or novate any of its rights and obligations (as the case may be) under the Finance Documents other than by way of a novation (Nw. overdragelse av rettigheter og forpliktelser) to another Hedge Counterparty.
Restrictions on enforcement 
No Hedge Counterparty shall take any Enforcement Actions in relation to a Hedging Agreement unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Agent has served a notice in accordance with Clause 25.16 (Acceleration).
Paragraph (a) does not apply to the exercise of any right to terminate or close out any hedging transaction under the Hedging Agreements before its stated maturity if:
the relevant Borrower has not paid when due or within any applicable grace period an amount of any hedging liability; or
an Event of Default pursuant to Clause 25.7 (Insolvency proceedings) has occurred and has not been remedied or waived within thirty (30) days of commencement.
The term “Enforcement Action” shall in this Clause 27 mean any action described in Clause 25.16 (Acceleration), the declaration of an early termination date (howsoever described in a Hedging Agreement) resulting from an event of default (howsoever described in a Hedging Agreement) (an “Early Termination Date”) under any Hedging Agreement or demand for payment of all or part of any amount which would become payable following an Early Termination Date.
ROLE OF THE AGENT
Appointment and authorisation of the Agent
Each Finance Party appoints the Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Finance Documents (including, but not limited to, the Security Documents).
Each Finance Party authorises the Agent to exercise the rights, powers, authorities and discretions specifically given to the Agent under or in connection with the Finance Documents together with any other incidental rights, powers, authorities and discretions.
Duties of the Agent
The Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Finance Documents, and the Agent’s duties under the Finance Documents are solely mechanical and administrative in nature. The Agent shall:

#    65 (65)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

if the Agent is aware of any non-payment of any principal, interest, commitment fee or other fee payable to a Finance Party (other than the Agent) it shall promptly notify the other Finance Parties.
The Agent further agrees to act as security agent on behalf of the Lenders under and in connection with the Security Documents, hereunder in connection with the signing, execution and enforcement of the Security Documents.
Relationship - Agent
The relationship between the Agent and the other Finance Parties is that of agent and principal only. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as to constitute the Agent or the Finance Parties as trustee or fiduciary or a trust for any other person, and neither the Agent nor the Finance Parties shall be bound to account to any Finance Party for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by it for its own account. 
Business with the Obligors
The Agent may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of banking or other business with the Obligors.
Rights and discretions of the Agent
The Agent may rely on:
any representation, notice or document believed by it to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised; and
any statement made by a director, authorised signatory or employee of any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify.
The Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as Agent for the Lenders) that:
no Event of Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of an Event of Default under Clause 25.1 (Non-payment)); and
any right, power, authority or discretion vested in any Party or the Required Majority has not been exercised. 
The Agent may engage, pay for and rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, surveyors or other experts.
The Agent may act in relation to the Finance Documents through its personnel and agents.
The Agent may disclose to any other Party any information it reasonably believes it has received as agent under this Agreement.
Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (e) above, the Agent: 
may disclose; and
on the written request of the Parent or the Required Majority, shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, disclose, 
the identity of a Defaulting Lender to the Parent and to the other Finance Parties. 
Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Agent is not obliged to do or omit to do anything if it would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of duty of confidentiality or render it liable to any person.

#    66 (66)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

Required Majority’ instructions
Unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, the Agent shall (i) exercise any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Agent in accordance with any instructions given to it by the Required Majority (or, if so instructed by the Required Majority, refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Agent) and (ii) not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts in accordance with an instruction of the Required Majority.
Unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, any instructions given by the Required Majority will be binding on all the Finance Parties.
The Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of the Required Majority (or, if appropriate, the Lenders) until it has received such security as it may require for any cost, loss or liability (together with any associated VAT) which it may incur in complying with the instructions.
In the absence of instructions from the Required Majority (or, if appropriate, the Lenders) the Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of the Lenders.
The Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Lender (without first obtaining that Lender’s consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings relating to any Finance Document.
For so long as a Defaulting Lender has an Available Commitment, in ascertaining:
		
	(i)
	the Required Majority; or 

		
	(ii)
	whether:

		
	(A)
	any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments under the relevant Facility; or 

		
	(B)
	the agreement of any specified group of Lenders,

has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents, 
that Defaulting Lender's Commitment under the relevant Facility will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the relevant Facility and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender's Total Commitments being zero, that Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.
For the purposes of this Clause 28.6 the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:
		
	(i)
	any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender;

		
	(ii)
	any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of "Defaulting Lender" has occurred,

unless it has received notice to the contrary from the Lender concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Lender has ceased to be a Defaulting Lender.
Responsibility for documentation
The Agent:

#    67 (67)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

is not responsible for the adequacy, accuracy and/or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by the Agent on behalf of a Party, the Obligors or any other person in or in connection with any Finance Document; and
is not responsible for the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made in anticipation of or in connection with any Finance Document.
Exclusion of liability 
Without limiting paragraph (b) below, the Agent will not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless directly caused by its gross negligence or wilful misconduct.
No Party (other than the Agent) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of the Agent in respect of any claim it might have against the Agent or in respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document and any officer, employee and agent of the Agent may rely on this Clause 27.
The Agent will not be liable for any delay (or any related consequences) in crediting an account with an amount required under the Finance Documents to be paid by the Agent if the Agent has taken all necessary steps as soon as reasonably practicable to comply with the regulations or operating procedures of any recognised clearing or settlement system used by the Agent for that purpose.
Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige the Agent to carry out any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to the Agent that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Agent.
Lenders’ indemnity to the Agent
Each Lender shall (in proportion to its share of the Total Commitments or, if the Total Commitments are then reduced to zero, to its share of the Total Commitments immediately prior to their reduction to zero), indemnify the Agent, within three (3) Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the Agent (otherwise than by reason of the Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the Agent has been reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to a Finance Document). 
Resignation of the Agent
The Agent may resign and appoint one of its Affiliates as successor by giving notice to the other Finance Parties and the Borrower. 
Alternatively the Agent may, upon prior written consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, resign by giving notice to the other Finance Parties and the Borrower in which case the Required Majority (after consultation with the Borrower) may appoint a successor agent.
If the Required Majority have not appointed a successor agent in accordance with paragraph b) above within thirty (30) days after notice of resignation was given, the Agent (after consultation with the Borrower) may appoint a successor agent.
The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as agent under the Finance Documents.

#    68 (68)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

The Agent’s resignation notice shall only take effect upon appointment of a successor.
Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this Clause 27. Each successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.
After consultation with the Borrower the Required Majority may, by notice to the Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph b) above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph b) above.
The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) above) if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:
the Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 13.4 (FATCA Information) and a Lender reasonably believes that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date;
the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 13.4 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or
the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date,
and (in each case) a Lender reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required if the Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and that Lender, by notice to the Agent, requires it to resign.
Confidentiality
In acting as agent for the Finance Parties the Agent shall be regarded as acting through its agency division which shall be treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments. 
If information is received by another division or department of the Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it.
Credit appraisal by the Lenders 
Without affecting the responsibility of the Obligors for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms to the Agent that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with any Finance Document, including (without limitation):
the financial condition, status and nature of the Obligors;
the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document; and
whether that Lender has recourse, and the nature and extent of that recourse, against any Party or any of its respective assets under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents 

#    69 (69)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

or any other agreement, arrangement or document, entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document.
Conduct of business of the Finance Parties
No provision of this Agreement will:
interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;
oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or to the extent, order or manner of any claim; or
oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.
SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES
Payment to Finance Parties
If a Finance Party (a “Recovering Finance Party”) receives or recovers any amount from any of the Obligors other than in accordance with Clause 30 (Payment mechanics) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:
the Recovering Finance Party shall promptly, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery to the Agent;
the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received by or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 30 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and
the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 30.5 (Partial payments).
Redistribution of payments
The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by any of the Obligors, as the case may be, and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) in accordance with Clause 30.5 (Partial payments).
Recovering Finance Party’s rights
On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 29.2 (Redistribution of payments), the Recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties which have shared in the redistribution. 
If and to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on its rights under paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall be liable to the Recovering Finance Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.
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:

#    70 (70)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

each Finance Party which has received a share of the relevant Sharing Payment pursuant to Clause 29.2 (Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay); and
that Recovering Finance Party’s rights of subrogation in respect of any reimbursement shall be cancelled and the Borrower will be liable to the reimbursing Finance Party for the amount so reimbursed.
Exceptions
This Clause 29 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause 29, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor.
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 proceedings, if:
it notified that other Finance Party of the legal proceedings; and
that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did do so as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.
PAYMENT MECHANICS
Payments to the Agent
All payments by the Obligors or a Lender under the Finance Documents, including but not limited to repayments, interests, guarantee premiums and fees, shall be made:
to the Agent to its account with such office or bank as the Agent may from time to time designate in writing to the relevant Obligor or a Lender for this purpose; and
for value on the due date at such times and in such funds as the Agent may specify to the Party concerned as being customary at the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.
Distributions by the Agent
Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 30.3 (Distributions to the Borrower) and 30.4 (Clawback), be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement, to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice.
Distributions to the Borrower
The Agent may (with the consent of the Borrower or in accordance with Clause 31 (Set-off)), apply any amount received by it for the Obligors in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from the Obligors under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of currency to be so applied.
Clawback
Where a sum is to be paid to the Agent under the Finance Documents for distribution to another Party, the Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum. 

#    71 (71)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

If the Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Agent had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount was paid by the Agent shall on demand refund the same amount to the Agent, together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Agent, calculated by the Agent to reflect its cost of funds.
Partial payments
If the Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of the Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:
firstly, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Agent under the Finance Documents (save for fees, costs and expenses under the Secured Hedging Agreements);
secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest (including default interest), fees or commissions due but unpaid under this Agreement;
thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal due but unpaid and indemnification due but unpaid under this Agreement; 
fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due  but unpaid under the Finance Documents (except for under the Secured Hedging Agreements); and
fifthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any sum due but unpaid under the Secured Hedging Agreements.
Application following an Event of Default
Following an Event of Default, all monies received by the Agent shall be applied in the following order:
firstly, in respect of all costs and expenses whatsoever incurred by the Agent in connection with or incidental to the enforcement of any Finance Document (save for fees, costs and expenses under the Secured Hedging Agreements);
secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Agent under the Finance Documents (save for fees, costs and expenses under the Secured Hedging Agreements;
thirdly, in or towards satisfaction of all prior claims (being any claims, liabilities or debts owed or taking priority in respect of such proceeds over the Security Interests constituted by the Security Documents) secured in the Finance Parties’ secured assets;
fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest (including default interest), fee or commission due but unpaid under this Agreement;
fifthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal due but unpaid and indemnification due but unpaid under this Agreement; 
sixthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due  but unpaid under the Finance Documents (except for under the Secured Hedging Agreements);
s, in or towards payment pro rata of any sum due but unpaid under the Secured Hedging Agreements; and
finally, the balance (if any) to the Borrower or to its order.

EXECUTION VERSION

All payments to be made by an Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or counterclaim.
Payment on non-Business Days 
Any payment which is due to be made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 
During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal or Unpaid Sum under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal or Unpaid Sum at the rate payable on the original due date.

SET-OFF

If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

Language
Communication to be given by one Party to another under the Finance Documents shall be given in the English language or, if not in English and if so required by the Agent, be accompanied by a certified English translation and, in this case, the English translation shall prevail unless the document is a statutory or other official document.

Any electronic communication made between the Agent, a Lender and an Obligor will be effective only when actually received in readable form and in the case of any electronic communication made by a Lender or an Obligor to the Agent only if it is addressed in such a manner as the Agent shall specify for this purpose.
For the purpose of the Finance Documents, an electronic communication will be treated as being in writing. Each Party may rely without further inquiry on the senders’ due authorisation in connection with any e-mail messages it receives on behalf of the other Party. Each Party shall also, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, be authorised to communicate by e-mail with any third parties who may be involved in this transaction or affected by the Finance Documents. Each Party confirms that it is aware of the fact that information by way of electronic exchange is transmitted unencrypted over a publicly accessible network, and that it acknowledges all the risks connected therewith (including but not limited to the fact that a bank relation (as such terms is used in the context of Swiss banking secrecy legislation) could be identified). 
CALCULATIONS
All sums falling due by way of interest, fees and commissions under the Finance Documents accrue from day-to-day and shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a calendar year of 360 days. The calculations made by the Agent of any interest rate or any amount payable pursuant to this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower in the absence of any manifest error.
MISCELLANEOUS
Partial invalidity
If, at any time, any provision of the Finance Documents is or becomes illegal, invalid or unenforceable in any respect under any law of any jurisdiction, neither the legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provisions under any law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.
Remedies and waivers
No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising on the part of any Finance Party, any right or remedy under the Finance Documents shall operate as a waiver, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.
Amendments, consents and waivers
Required consents
Subject to Clause 34.3.2 (Exceptions), any term of the Finance Documents may be amended, consented to or waived only with the written consent of the Required Majority, the Obligors and any such amendment will be binding on all Parties.
The Agent may effect, on behalf of any Finance Party, any amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 34.3.1.
Exceptions
An amendment to or waiver that has the effect of changing or which relates to:
the definition of “Required Majority”;
an extension of the date of any payment of any amount under the Finance Documents;

#    75 (75)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

a reduction in the Applicable Margin or a reduction in the amount of any payment of principal, interest, fees or commission payable;

Clause 2.2 (Finance parties’ rights and obligations);
release of any Guarantors, any Guarantees provided by the Guarantors pursuant to this Agreement, the Guarantee Obligations or any Security Interest under any Security Document; and/or 
this Clause 34.3,
shall not be made without the prior written consent of all the Lenders. 
The Borrower shall (for its own cost) have the right, in the absence of a Default or Event of Default, to replace any Lender that refuses to consent to certain amendments or waivers of this Agreement which expressly require the consent of such Lender and which have been approved by the Required Majority, with a New Lender(if relevant). 
If any Lender fails to respond to a request for a consent, waiver, amendment of or in relation to any of the terms of any Finance Documents (other than an amendment or waiver referred to in letters (a) and (h) above) or another vote required by the Lenders under the terms of this Agreement within 15 Business Days (unless the Borrower and the Agent agree to a longer time period in relation to any request) of that request being made, its Commitment and/or participation shall not be included for the purpose of calculating the Total Commitments or participations under the relevant Facility when ascertaining whether any relevant percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of Total Commitments and/or participations has been obtained to approve that request.
An amendment or waiver which relates to the rights or obligations of the Agent may not be effected without the written consent of the Agent.
Disclosure of information and confidentiality
In addition to the information that may be disclosed by a Lender pursuant to Clause 26.9 (Disclosure of information), each of the Finance Parties may disclose to each other or to their professional advisers any kind of information which the Finance Parties have acquired under or in connection with any Finance Document. The Parties are obliged to keep confidential all information in respect of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This confidentiality obligation shall not apply to any information which: 
is publicised by a Party as required by applicable laws and regulations or the rules of any relevant stock exchange; 
has entered the public domain or is publicly known, provided that such information is not made publicly known by the receiving Party of such information; or 
was or becomes, as the Party is able to demonstrate by supporting documents, available to such Party on a non-confidential basis prior to the disclosure thereof; 
Process Agent
Each Obligor hereby irrevocably:

#    76 (76)

Exhibit 10.5 - Part II
EXECUTION VERSION

appoints Seadrill Offshore AS as its agent for the service of process and/or any other writ, notice, order or judgment in respect of this Agreement and/or the matters arising herefrom and any other Finance Documents governed by the laws of Norway; and
agrees that failure by such process agent to notify the Agent of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned. 
If any process agent appointed pursuant to this Clause 34.5 (Process Agent) (or any successor thereto) shall cease to exist for any reason where process may be served, the Obligor will forthwith appoint another process agent with an office in Norway where process may be served and will forthwith notify the Agent thereof.
Conflict
In case of conflict between the Security Documents and this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail, provided however that this will not in any way be interpreted or applied to prejudice the legality, validity or enforceability of any Security Document.
Counterparts
Each Finance Document may be executed in any number of counterparts and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document. 
GOVERNING LAW AND ENFORCEMENT
Governing law
This Agreement shall be governed by Norwegian law.
Jurisdiction
For the benefit of each Finance Party, each of the Obligors agrees that the courts of Oslo, Norway have jurisdiction to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with the Finance Documents including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of this Agreement, and each of the Obligors accordingly submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Oslo District Court (Oslo tingrett).
Nothing in this Clause 35.2 shall limit the right of the Finance Parties to commence proceedings against any of the Obligors in any other court of competent jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by law, the Finance Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

SUBLICENSE RELEASE AGREEMENT

 

This CONFIDENTIAL SUBLICENSE RELEASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) pursuant to California Evidence Code §§ 1152, 1154 is entered into on this 30th day of June 2015 (the “Effective Date”) by and among BioCorRx, Inc. (“BIOCORRX”), Trinity Rx Solutions, Inc. (“TRINITY”) and Sobriety and Addiction Solutions, LLC (“SAS”) (collectively, the “parties” and individually, a “party”). 

 

WHEREAS, the principals of BIOCORRX and SAS have worked together for several years in varying capacities in the treatment of substance abuse; and

 

WHEREAS, BIOCORRX, TRINITY and SAS are parties to three (3) sublicense agreements, dated May 13, 2014, May 15, 2014 and June 25, 2014, respectively (collectively, the “Sublicense Agreements”), and BIOCORRX’s and SAS’s predecessors in interest, Fresh Start Private Management, Inc. and Fresh Start NoCal, LLC, respectively, were parties to a license and distribution agreement dated August 2, 2013 (the “Distribution Agreement”), which was superseded by the parties’ May 15, 2014 sublicense agreement; and

 

WHEREAS TRINITY acknowledged the granting of the sublicenses to SAS by BIOCORRX; and

 

WHEREAS SAS and its “affiliate” (as defined herein by 17 CFR 230.405) company, MyLife Recovery Centers, Inc., a Delaware corporation, also operate under the name “MyLife.” Whenever “SAS” is presented herein it is understood, acknowledged and for all purposes agreed to by SAS that SAS shall also refer to “MyLife” and that all representations, affirmations and acceptance of terms and obligations by SAS shall also be equally binding upon MyLife;

 

WHEREAS, BIOCORRX and SAS mutually desire to enter into this Agreement to reimburse, in part, previously paid licensing fees and to allow BIOCORRX and SAS to proceed independently on the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the following representations, warranties, covenants and agreements and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

For clarification, changing the delivery system shall be deemed by all parties herein as an indisputable innovation and not merely a modification. FURTHERMORE, it is acknowledged that all parties remain free to develop new formulas and products so long as doing so does not require employing intellectual property rights including but not limited to, trade secrets and/or patent(s) belonging to the other party. Section 10 of the Sublicense Agreements is otherwise hereby terminated.  All other sections of the Sublicense Agreements, including but not limited to section 4, shall not survive termination.
