	(c)	the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, the Borrower 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;

 Execution Version 

 
  

	4.2	Fees and expenses payable under Loan Agreement 

 Clause 4.1 is without prejudice to the
Guarantor’s liabilities in respect of the Borrower’s obligations under clauses 9 (Fees) and 10 (Taxes, Increased Costs and Related Charges) of the Loan Agreement and under similar provisions of other Finance Documents. 

 

	5	ADJUSTMENT OF TRANSACTIONS 

  

	5.1	Reinstatement of obligation to pay 

 The Guarantor shall pay to the Security Trustee on
its demand any amount which any Secured Party is required, or agrees, to pay pursuant to any claim by, or settlement with, a trustee in bankruptcy of the Borrower or of any other Obligor (or similar person) on the ground that the Loan Agreement or
any other Finance Document, or a payment by the Borrower or of such other Obligor, was invalid or on any similar ground. 
  

	6	PAYMENTS 

  

	6.1	Method of payments 

 Any amount due under this Guarantee shall be paid: 

 

	(a)	in immediately available funds; 

  

	(b)	to such account as the Security Trustee may from time to time notify to the Guarantor; 

  

	(c)	without any form of set-off, cross-claim or condition; and 

 

	(d)	free and clear of any tax deduction except a tax deduction which the Guarantor is required by law to make. 

  

	6.2	Grossing-up for taxes 

 If the Guarantor is required by law to make a tax deduction, the
amount due to the Security Trustee shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that the Security Trustee and (if the payment is not due to the Security Trustee for its own account) the Secured Party beneficially interested in the payment
receives and retains a net amount which, after the tax deduction, is equal to the full amount that it would otherwise have received. 
  

	6.3	Tax Credits 

 If an additional payment is made by the Guarantor under this Clause and any
Secured Party determines that it has received or been granted a credit against or relief of or calculated with reference to the deduction giving rise to such additional payment, such Secured Party shall, to the extent that it can do so without
prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment and provided that it has received the cash benefit of such credit, relief or remission, pay to the Guarantor such amount as such Secured Party shall in its
reasonable opinion have concluded to be attributable to the relevant deduction. Any such payment shall be conclusive evidence of the amount due to the Guarantor hereunder and shall be accepted by the Guarantor in full and final settlement of its
rights of reimbursement hereunder in respect of such deduction. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of each Secured Party to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent
that this Clause imposes obligations or restrictions on a party, such obligations or restrictions shall not apply to SACE and SACE shall have no obligations hereunder nor be constrained by such restrictions. 

  
 4 

 Execution Version 

 
  

	6.4	To the extent that this Clause 6 (Payments) imposes obligations or restrictions on a Secured Party, such obligations or restrictions shall not apply to SACE and SACE shall have no obligations hereunder nor be
constrained by such restrictions. 

  

	7	INTEREST 

  

	7.1	Accrual of interest 

 Any amount due under this Guarantee shall carry interest after the
date on which the Security Trustee demands payment of it until it is actually paid, unless interest on that same amount also accrues under the Loan Agreement. 
  

	7.2	Calculation of interest 

 Interest on sums payable under this Guarantee shall be
calculated and accrue in the same way as interest under clause 6 of the Loan Agreement. 
  

	7.3	Guarantee extends to interest payable under Loan Agreement 

 For the avoidance of doubt,
it is confirmed that this Guarantee covers all interest payable under the Loan Agreement, including that payable under clause 17 of the Loan Agreement. 
  

	8	SUBORDINATION 

  

	8.1	Subordination of rights of Guarantor 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable
by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Agent otherwise directs, all rights which the Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of this Guarantee or any other
transaction) against the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Secured Parties under the Finance Documents; and in particular, the Guarantor shall not: 

 

	(a)	claim, or in a bankruptcy of the Borrower or any other Obligor prove for, any amount payable to the Guarantor by the Borrower or any other Obligor, whether in respect of this Guarantee or any other transaction;

  

	(b)	take or enforce any Security Interest for any such amount; 

  

	(c)	exercise any right to be indemnified by an Obligor; 

  

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

  

	(e)	claim to set-off any such amount against any amount payable by the Guarantor to the Borrower or any other Obligor; or 

  

	(f)	claim any subrogation or right of contribution or other right in respect of any Finance Document or any sum received or recovered by any Secured Party under a Finance Document. 

If the 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 Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or
transfer the same to the Security Trustee or as the Security Trustee may direct for application in accordance with the Loan Agreement and the Finance Documents.

	9.1	No requirement to commence proceedings against Borrower 

 The Guarantor waives any right
it may have of first requiring the Security Trustee or any other Secured Party to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Guarantee. Neither the Security
Trustee nor any other Secured Party will need to make any demand under, commence any proceedings under, or enforce any guarantee or any Security Interest contained in or created by, the Loan Agreement or any other Finance Document before claiming or
commencing proceedings under this Guarantee. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

	(a)	any judgment or order of a court in England or the Marshall Islands or the United States of America in connection with the Loan Agreement; and

 shall be
binding and conclusive as to all matters of fact and law to which it relates. 
  

	9.3	Suspense account 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under
or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, the Security Trustee and any Secured Party may: 
  

	(a)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by it (or any trustee or agent on its behalf which, in the case of a Secured Party, shall include the Agent and the Security
Trustee) 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 Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 

 

	(b)	hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee. 

 

	10	REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

  

	10.1	General 

 The Guarantor represents and warrants to the Security Trustee as follows on the

property) subject to any of the outstanding Options, (3) the exercise price of any of the outstanding Options, and/or (4) the securities, cash or other property deliverable upon exercise of any of the outstanding Options, in each case to

made fu a manner that satisfies applicable legal, tax and accounting (so as to not trigger any charge to earnings with respect to such adjustment) requirements. Unless otherwise expressly provided, in no event shall any new issuance of securities by
the Company for consideration be deemed, in and of itself, to require an adjustment pursuant to this Section 2.5.
