The Facility

 

		2	The Facility

  

		2.1	The Facility

  
 Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Lenders make available to the Borrowers a dollar term loan facility in five Tranches in an aggregate amount not
exceeding the Total Commitments. The aggregate amount of $37,000,000 has been utilised on the relevant Utilisation Dates in respect of the Original Tranches, of which the aggregate amount of $35,700,000 is outstanding by way of principal at the date
of the Deed of Accession, Amendment and Restatement.

 

		2.2	Finance Parties' rights and obligations

 

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

 

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

 

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

  

		2.3	Borrowers' Agent

  

		(a)	Each Borrower by its execution of this Agreement appoints the Parent Guarantor to act on its behalf as its agent in relation to the Finance
Documents and specifically authorises:

  

		(i)	the Parent Guarantor on its behalf to supply all information concerning itself contemplated by this Agreement to the Finance Parties and to give
all notices and instructions (including any Utilisation Request), to make such agreements and to effect the relevant amendments, supplements and variations capable of being given, made or effected by any Borrower in connection with the Finance
Documents notwithstanding that they may affect the Borrower, without further reference to or the consent of that Borrower; and

  

		(ii)	each Finance Party to give any notice, demand or other communication to that Borrower pursuant to the Finance Documents to the Parent
Guarantor,

  

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

 
30

  

  

		(b)	Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made
by the Parent Guarantor or given to the Parent Guarantor under any Finance Document on behalf of a Borrower or in connection with any Finance Document (whether or not known to any Borrower) shall be binding for all purposes on that Borrower as if
that Borrower had expressly made, given or concurred with it. In the event of any conflict between any notices or other communications of the Parent Guarantor and any Borrower, those of the Parent Guarantor shall prevail.

43

 Section 6
 

Additional Payment Obligations

 

		12	Tax Gross Up and Indemnities

  

		12.1	Definitions

  

		(a)	In this Agreement:

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

 

"Tax Deduction" means a deduction or
withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document, other than a FATCA Deduction.
  
 "Tax Payment" means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Finance Party under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or a payment under Clause 12.3
(Tax indemnity).
  

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

  

		12.2	Tax gross-up

  

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

  

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

  

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

 

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

  

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

  

		12.3	Tax indemnity

  

		(a)	The Obligors shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability
or cost which that Protected Party 

  

 
46

  

  

	 	determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

  

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

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

 

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

 

		(B)	relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.

 

		(c)	A Protected Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (a) above shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of the event which
will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall notify the Obligors.

  

		(d)	A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity), notify the Facility
Agent.

  

		12.4	Tax Credit

  
 If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:

 

		(a)	a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in
consequence of which that Tax Payment was received; and

 

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

 

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

 

		12.5	Stamp taxes

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

		12.6	VAT

  

		(a)	All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the
consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any

  

 
47

  

  

	 	Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same
time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

 

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

  

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

 

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

  

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

 

		(d)	Any reference in this Clause 12.6 (VAT) to any Party shall, at any time when that Party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or
fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the supply, under the grouping rules
provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or
fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or representative or head) of that group or unity at the relevant time (as the case may be).

 

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

  

		12.7	FATCA Information

  

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

 

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

 

		(A)	a FATCA Exempt Party; or

  

 
48

  

  

		(B)	not a FATCA Exempt Party; and

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

		(i)	any law or regulation;

  

		(ii)	any fiduciary duty; or

  

		(iii)	any duty of confidentiality.

  

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

 

		(e)	If a Borrower is a US Tax Obligor, or the Facility Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA or any other applicable law or
regulation require it, each Lender shall, within ten Business Days of:

  

		(i)	where a Borrower is a US Tax Obligor and the relevant Lender is an Original Lender, the date of this Agreement;

 

		(ii)	where a Borrower is a US Tax Obligor on a Transfer Date and the relevant Lender is a New Lender, the relevant Transfer Date;
or

  

		(iii)	where a Borrower is not a US Tax Obligor, the date of a request from the Facility Agent,

 

supply to the Facility Agent:

 

		(iv)	a withholding certificate on Form W-8, Form W-9 or any other relevant form; or

 

		(v)	any withholding statement or other document, authorisation or waiver as the Facility Agent may require to certify or establish the status of
such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation.

 

		(f)	The Facility Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender
pursuant to paragraph (e) above to the Borrowers.

 

		(g)	If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Facility Agent by a Lender pursuant to
paragraph (e) above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such 

  

 
49

  

  

	 	updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Facility Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the
Facility Agent). The Facility Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Borrowers.

 

		(h)	The Facility Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender
pursuant to paragraph (e) or (g) above without further verification. The Facility Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with paragraphs (e), (f) or (g) above.

 

		12.8	FATCA Deduction

  

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

 

		(b)	Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such
FATCA Deduction), notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify each Obligor and the Facility Agent and the Facility Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

 Guarantees and Joint
and Several Liability of Borrowers
  

		17	Guarantee and Indemnity

  

		17.1	Guarantee and indemnity

  
 The Parent Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:
  

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

  

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

 

		(c)	agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an
independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand by the Facility Agent against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of another Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such
unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Parent Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to
pay under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

  

		17.2	Continuing guarantee

  
 This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or
discharge in whole or in part.
  

		17.3	Reinstatement

  
 If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Secured Party in whole
or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of the Parent Guarantor under this Clause 17
(Guarantee and Indemnity) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.
  

		17.4	Waiver of defences

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

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

 

		(b)	the release of any other Transaction Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any
member of the Group;

  

 
57

  

  

		(c)	the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect or delay in perfecting, or refusal or
neglect to take up or enforce, or delay in taking or enforcing any rights against, or security over assets of, any Transaction Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any
instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

  

		(d)	any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor or any other
person;

  

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

  

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

  

		(g)	any insolvency or similar proceedings.

 

		17.5	Immediate recourse

  

		(a)	The Parent Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed
against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document or to enforce any Transaction Security) before claiming or commencing proceedings
under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

 

		(b)	The Parent Guarantor acknowledges the right of the Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 27.19 (Acceleration) to enforce or direct the
Security Agent to enforce or exercise any or all of its rights, remedies powers or discretions under any guarantee or indemnity contained in this Agreement.

 

		17.6	Appropriations

  
 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Transaction Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Secured Party
(or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:
  

		(a)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Secured Party (or any trustee or agent on its
behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Parent Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same;
and

  

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

 

		17.7	Deferral of Parent Guarantor's rights

 

All rights which the Parent Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of
this guarantee, a mortgage or any other transaction) against the Borrower, any other Transaction Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents and until the end of the
Security Period and unless the Facility Agent otherwise directs, the Parent Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have (whether in respect of any Finance Document to which it is a Party or any other transaction) by reason of
performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason

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

  

		(d)	to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Transaction Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of
which the Parent Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity);

  

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

 

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

 

If the Parent Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in
relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Secured Parties by the Transaction Obligors under or in connection with the Finance
Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Secured Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 34 (Payment Mechanics).

 

		17.8	Additional security

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

Section 9
 
 Changes to
Parties
  

		28	Changes to the Lenders

  

		28.1	Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

 

Subject to this Clause 28 (Changes to the Lenders), a Lender (the
“Existing Lender”) may:
  

		(a)	assign any of its rights; or

  

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

 

under the Finance Documents to another bank or financial institution or to a
trust, fund or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (the “New Lender”).

 

		28.2	Conditions of assignment or transfer

 

		(a)	No consent of a Transaction Obligor is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender to a New Lender.

 

		(b)	An assignment will only be effective on:

 

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

 

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

 

		(c)	Each Obligor on behalf of itself and each Transaction Obligor agrees that all rights and interests (present, future or contingent) which the
Existing Lender has under or by virtue of the Finance Documents are assigned to the New Lender absolutely, free of any defects in the Existing Lender’s title and of any rights or equities which the Borrowers or any other Transaction Obligor
had against the Existing Lender.

  

		(d)	A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 28.5 (Procedure for transfer) is complied
with.

  

		(e)	If:

  

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

  

		(ii)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a Transaction Obligor would be obliged to make a
payment to the New Lender or Existing Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) or under that clause as incorporated by reference or in full in any other Finance Document or Clause 13
(Increased Costs),

  

then the New Lender or the Existing Lender acting through its new Facility
Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender,
  
 

 
100

  

  

prior to such assignment or transfer, or an Existing Lender acting through its
previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. This paragraph (e) shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the
Facility.
  

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

 

		28.3	Assignment or transfer fee

  
 The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Facility Agent (for its own account) a fee of $10,000.

 

		28.4	Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

 

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

  

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

  

		(ii)	the financial condition of any Transaction Obligor or any Approved Manager;

 

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

  

		(iv)	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Transaction Document or any other
document,

  

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

 

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

 

		(i)	has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each
Transaction Obligor and each Approved Manager 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 or any other Finance Party in
connection with any Transaction Document or the Transaction Security; and

  

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

 

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

 

		(i)	accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 28
(Changes to the Lenders); or

  

 
101

  

  

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

  

		28.5	Procedure for transfer

  

		(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 28.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer), a transfer is effected in accordance with
paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below as soon as reasonably
practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with this Agreement and delivered in accordance with this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.

 

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

 

		(c)	Subject to Clause 28.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

 

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

  

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

  

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

 

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

 

		28.6	Procedure for assignment

  

		(a)	Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 28.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) an assignment may be effected in accordance with
paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably
practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Assignment
Agreement.

  

 
102

  

  

		(b)	The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is
satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender.

 

		(c)	Subject to Clause 28.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

 

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

  

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

 

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

  

		(d)	Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 28.6 (Procedure for assignment) to assign their rights under the
Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Transaction Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 28.5 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by that Transaction Obligor from the obligations owed to that
Transaction Obligor by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in Clause 28.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer).

 

		28.7	Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrowers

 

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

 

		28.8	Security over Lenders’ rights

 

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 28
(Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Transaction Obligor or any Approved Manager, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or
otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:
  

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

 

		(b)	any charge, assignment or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of obligations owed, or securities
issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities,

  
 except that no such charge, assignment or Security shall:
  

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

  

		(ii)	require any payments to be made by a Transaction Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than,
those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.

  
 

 
103

  

  

		28.9	Pro rata interest settlement

  

		(a)	If the Facility Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to
Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 28.5 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 28.6 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after
the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period):

  

		(i)	any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to
accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current
Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

 

		(ii)	the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that, for the avoidance of
doubt:

  

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

 

		(B)	the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 28.9 (Pro rata
interest settlement), have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

  

		(b)	In this Clause 28.9 (Pro rata interest settlement) references to “Interest Period” shall be construed to include a reference
to any other period for accrual of fees.

  

		(c)	An Existing Lender which retains the right to the Accrued Amounts pursuant to this Clause 28.9 (Pro rata interest settlement) but which
does not have a Commitment shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of ascertaining whether 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.

  

		29	Changes to the Transaction Obligors

 

		29.1	Assignment or transfer by Transaction Obligors

 

No Transaction Obligor nor any Approved Manager may assign any of its rights or
transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents.

 

		29.2	Release of security

  

		(a)	If a disposal of any asset subject to security created by a Security Document is made in the following circumstances:

 

		(i)	the disposal is permitted by the terms of any Finance Document;

 

		(ii)	all the Lenders agree to the disposal;

 

		(iii)	the disposal is being made at the request of the Security Agent in circumstances where any security created by the Security Documents has become
enforceable; or

  

		(iv)	the disposal is being effected by enforcement of a Security Document,

 

 
104

  

  

the Security Agent may release the asset(s) being disposed of from any security
over those assets created by a Security Document. However, the proceeds of any disposal (or an amount corresponding to them) must be applied in accordance with the requirements of the Finance Documents (if any).

 

		(b)	If the Security Agent is satisfied that a release is allowed under this Clause 29.2 (Release of security) (at the request and expense of
the Borrowers) each Finance Party must enter into any document and do all such other things which are reasonably required to achieve that release. Each other Finance Party irrevocably authorises the Security Agent to enter into any such document.
Any release will not affect the obligations of any other Transaction Obligor or any Approved Manager under the Finance Documents.

		(B)	in all other cases, the Majority Lenders; and

 

		(ii)	not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from acting) in accordance with sub-paragraph (i) above (or, if this Agreement

exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Facility Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives any such instructions or clarification that it has requested.

 

		(c)	Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties under the relevant Finance

Agent for the relevant Finance Parties.

  

 
106

  

  

		(e)	If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders would in the Facility Agent’s opinion have an effect equivalent to an
amendment or waiver referred to in Clause 43 (Amendments and Waivers), the Facility Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than the Facility Agent) whose
consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

any applicable VAT) which it may incur in complying with those instructions.

  

		(h)	Without prejudice to the remainder of this Clause 30.2 (Instructions), in the absence of instructions, the Facility Agent shall not be

of the Finance Parties.

  

		(i)	The Facility Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Finance Party (without first obtaining that Finance Party’s consent) in any

obligations of any kind to any other Party under or in connection with any Finance Document.

received by it for its own account.

authorised;

or

as sufficient evidence that that is the case and, in the case of paragraph (A)
above, may assume the truth and accuracy of that certificate.

 

		(b)	The Facility Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as agent for the Finance Parties)
that:

  

		(i)	no Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of a Default arising under Clause 27.2 (Non-payment));

 

		(ii)	any right, power, authority or discretion vested in any Party or any group of Finance Parties has not been exercised;

advisers or experts.

  

		(d)	Without prejudice to the generality of paragraph (c) above or paragraph (e) below, the Facility Agent may at any time engage and pay for the
services of any lawyers to act as independent counsel to the Facility Agent (and so separate from any lawyers instructed by the Lenders) if the Facility Agent in its reasonable opinion deems this to be desirable.

relying.

Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

 

		(g)	Unless a Finance Document expressly provides otherwise the Facility Agent may disclose to any other Party any information it reasonably believes
it has received as agent under the Finance Documents.

 

		(h)	Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Facility Agent nor the Arranger is obliged to do or
omit to do anything if it would or might, in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a fiduciary duty or duty of confidentiality.

 

		(i)	Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Facility Agent is not obliged to expend or risk its own funds or
otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity
against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Neither the Facility Agent nor the Arranger is responsible or liable
for:
  

		(a)	the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the

		(b)	the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Transaction Document or the Security Property or any other agreement,

109

  

  

		(c)	any determination as to whether any information provided or to be provided to any Finance Party or Secured Party is non-public information the
use of which may be regulated or prohibited by applicable law or regulation relating to insider dealing or otherwise.

 The Facility Agent shall not be bound to enquire:

that loss. In no event shall the Facility Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages, whether or not the Facility Agent has

resignation was given, the retiring Facility Agent may appoint a successor Facility Agent.

  

		(d)	If the Facility Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer appropriate for it to remain as agent
and the Facility Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Facility Agent under paragraph (c) above, the Facility Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to persuade the proposed successor Facility Agent
to become a party to this Agreement as Facility Agent) agree with the proposed successor Facility Agent amendments to this Clause 30 (The Facility Agent, the Arranger and the Reference Banks) and any other term of this Agreement dealing with
the rights or obligations of the Facility Agent consistent with then current market practice for the appointment and protection of corporate trustees together with any reasonable amendments to the agency fee payable under this Agreement which are
consistent with the successor Facility Agent’s normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the Parties.

  

		(e)	The retiring Facility Agent shall make available to the successor Facility Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the
successor Facility Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Facility Agent under the Finance Documents. The Borrowers shall, within three Business Days of demand, reimburse the retiring Facility Agent for the
amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) properly incurred by it in making available such documents and records and providing such assistance.

and any other provisions of a Finance Document which are expressed to limit or exclude its liability (or to indemnify it) in acting as Facility Agent. Any fees for the account of the retiring Facility Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be
payable on) that date. Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

 

		(h)	The Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Facility Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above. In this event, the

		(ii)	entitled to receive and act upon any notice, request, document or communication or make any decision or determination under any Finance Document

unless it has received not less than five Business Days’ prior notice
from that Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
  

		(b)	Each Finance Party shall supply the Facility Agent with any information that the Security Agent may reasonably specify (through the Facility

communication)) electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the transmission of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be
treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address (or such other information), department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 37.2 (Addresses) and sub-paragraph (ii) of paragraph (a) of
Clause 37.5 (Electronic communication) and the Facility Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that
Lender.

and the determination of any investment bank shall be final and binding upon the Parties.

  

		31.17	Reliance and engagement letters

receipt, recovery or distribution; and

  

		(c)	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the

an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance
Party is required to pay) (the “Redistributed Amount”); and

  

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

		(b)	Unless paragraph (c) below applies, if the Facility Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Facility Agent
had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by the Facility Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Facility Agent together with interest on that amount
from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent, calculated by the Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

account of the Borrowers before receiving funds from the Lenders then if and to the extent
 

 

 
132

does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to the Borrowers:
  

		(i)	the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrowers of that Lender’s identity and the Borrowers shall on demand refund it to the Facility Agent;
and

  

		(ii)	the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if the Lender fails to do so, the Borrowers shall on demand pay to the
Facility Agent the amount (as certified by the Facility Agent) which will indemnify the Facility Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before receiving those funds from that Lender.

 

		34.5	Application of receipts; partial payments

 

		(a)	If the Facility Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and

order:

  

		(i)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of, and any other amounts owing to, the Facility

		(b)	Each payment in respect of costs, expenses or Taxes shall be made in the currency in which the costs, expenses or Taxes are
incurred.

  

		(c)	Any amount expressed to be payable in a currency other than dollars shall be paid in that other currency.

 

		34.9	Change of currency

  

		(a)	Unless otherwise prohibited by law, if more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time recognised by the central bank of any
country as the lawful currency of that country, then:

 

		(i)	any reference in the Finance Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Finance Documents in, the currency of that country shall be
translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country designated by the Facility Agent (after consultation with the Borrowers); and

conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably).

such changes to the operation or administration of the Facility as the Facility Agent may deem necessary in the circumstances;

134

  

  

		(d)	any such changes agreed upon by the Facility Agent and the Borrowers shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has

Waivers);

  

		(e)	the Facility Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever

obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

Section 12
 
 Governing Law and
Enforcement
  

		47	Governing Law

  
 This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by English law.

 

		48	Enforcement

  

		48.1	Jurisdiction

  

		(a)	Unless specifically provided in another Finance Document in relation to that Finance Document, the courts of England have exclusive jurisdiction
to settle any dispute arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination of any Finance Document or any non-contractual obligation arising out of or in connection with any
Finance Document) (a “Dispute”).

 

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

  

		(c)	This Clause 48.1 (Jurisdiction) is for the benefit of the Secured Parties only. As a result, no Secured Party shall be prevented from
taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Secured Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

 

		48.2	Service of process

  

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

  

		(i)	irrevocably appoints Saville & Co. at its registered office for the time being, presently at One Carey Lane, London EC2V 8AE,
England as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document; and

 

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

  

		(b)	If any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Borrowers (on
behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately (and in any event within 5 days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Facility Agent. Failing this, the Facility Agent may appoint another agent for this
purpose.

  

This Agreement has been entered into and amended and restated on the dates stated at
the beginning of this Agreement.
