	 	2.6.3	The Agent shall notify each Bank party to this Agreement immediately prior to the Accordion Increase Date (the “Existing Accordion Banks”) as soon as reasonably practicable after receiving

Total Revolving Facility B Commitments (as applicable) and, if the Parent has so elected, the Euro Swingline Total Commitments and US$ Swingline Total Commitments (as applicable) under the relevant Revolving Facilities will be increased on the

	 	(A)	the increased Revolving Facility Commitments and, if applicable, the increased Swingline Commitments will be assumed by one Bank or one other bank or financial institution (the “Increase Accordion
Bank”) selected by the Parent (which shall not be a member of the Group) and which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of a Bank corresponding to that part of the increased Revolving Facility
Commitments and, if applicable, the increased Swingline Commitments which it is to assume, as if it had been an Original Bank (such confirmation to be evidenced by its execution of an Increase Confirmation) provided that no Existing Accordion Bank
or any other person shall be under any obligation to become an Increase Accordion Bank (unless it has agreed otherwise with the Parent); 

  
 25 

	 	(B)	each of the Obligors and any Increase Accordion Bank shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another in respect of the relevant increased Revolving Facility Commitments and, if
applicable, the relevant increased Swingline Commitments as the Obligors and the Increase Accordion Bank would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Accordion Bank been an Original Bank in respect of the relevant increased Revolving Facility
Commitments and, as the case may be, the relevant increased Swingline Commitments; 

  

	 	(C)	the Increase Accordion Bank shall become a Party as a “Bank” and the Increase Accordion Bank and each of the other Finance Parties shall assume obligations towards one another in respect of the relevant
increased Revolving Facility Commitments and, if applicable, the relevant increased Swingline Commitments and acquire rights against one another in respect of the relevant increased Revolving Facility Commitments and, if applicable, the relevant
increased Swingline Commitments as that Increase Accordion Bank and those Finance Parties would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Accordion Bank been an Original Bank in respect of the relevant increased Revolving Facility Commitments
and, as the case may be, the relevant increased Swingline Commitments; and

	 	2.6.5	Subject to Clause 2.6.4 above, an increase in the relevant Revolving Facility Commitments or Swingline Commitments will only be effective when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Increase Confirmation. The
Agent shall, subject to Clause 2.6.6 below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Increase Confirmation appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement, execute that Increase Confirmation except to the extent an Event of Default is continuing on, or would arise as a result of, the proposed Accordion Increase Date. 

 

	 	2.6.6	The Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Increase Confirmation delivered to it by an Increase Accordion Bank which is not a Bank immediately prior to the relevant increase once it has complied with all necessary
“know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Accordion Bank (which it shall attend to as soon as reasonably practicable),
the completion of which the Agent shall promptly notify to the Parent and the Increase Accordion Bank. 

  

	 	2.6.7	The Parent may only request one Accordion Increase. 

  

	 	2.6.8	The Increase Accordion Bank, by executing the Increase Confirmation, confirms (for the avoidance of doubt) that the Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on
behalf of the requisite Bank or Banks in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the increase becomes effective. 

  

	 	2.6.9	Clauses 26.2.4 to 26.2.6 (Transfers by Banks) shall apply mutatis mutandis in this Clause 2.6 in relation to an Increase Accordion Bank as if references in that Clause to:

  

	 	(A)	an “Existing Banks” were references to the Existing Accordion Banks; 

  

	 	(B)	the “New Bank” were references to the “Increase Accordion Bank “; and 

  
 26 

	 	(C)	a “re-transfer” and “re-assignment” were references to respectively a “transfer” and “assignment”.

  

	 	2.6.10	Any amounts due or owing to the Existing Accordion Banks pursuant to any Finance Document on or before the date of any increase in the Revolving Facility Commitments and, if applicable, the Swingline Commitments
pursuant to this Clause 2.6 (including, without limitation, all amounts in respect of interest, fees and commission) shall be for the account of such Existing Accordion Banks and no Increase Accordion Bank shall have any interest in, or any rights
in respect of, any such amount save to the extent that it is also an Existing Accordion Bank. 

  

	2.7	Nature of a Finance Party’s rights and obligations 

  

	 	2.7.1	The obligations of a Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several. Failure of a Finance Party to carry out those obligations 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. 

  

	 	2.7.2	The rights of a 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 an Obligor shall be a separate
and independent debt in respect of which a Finance Party shall be entitled to enforce its rights in accordance with Clause 2.7.3 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 an Advance or any other amount owed by an Obligor which relates to a Finance Party’s participation in the Facilities or its role under a Finance Document (including any such amount payable to the US Agent
on its behalf) is a debt owing to that Finance Party by that Obligor. 

  

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

 

	2.8	Parent as agent for Obligors 

 Each Obligor irrevocably
authorises and instructs the Parent to give and receive as agent on its behalf all notices (including Requests and Selection Notices) and sign all documents in connection with the Finance Documents on its behalf (including Novation Certificates and
novation agreements under Clause 7.5.2 (Changes to Borrowers)) and take such other action as may be necessary or desirable under or in connection with the Finance Documents and confirms that it will be bound by any action taken
by the Parent under or in connection with the Finance Documents. 
  

	2.9	Actions of Parent as agent for Obligors 

 The
respective liabilities of each of the Obligors under the Finance Documents shall not be in any way affected by: 
  

	 	2.9.1	any irregularity (or purported irregularity) in any act done by or any failure (or purported failure) by the Parent; 

  

	 	2.9.2	the Parent acting (or purporting to act) in any respect outside any authority conferred upon it by any Obligor; or 

  

	 	2.9.3	the failure (or purported failure) by or inability (or purported inability) of the Parent to inform any Obligor of receipt by it of any notification under this Agreement. 

 

	3.	PURPOSE 

  

	3.1	Each Revolving Facility Advance (or if applicable, Term Advance) shall be applied in or towards the general corporate purposes of the Group. 

  
 27 

	3.2	Each US$ Swingline Advance will be applied in or towards refinancing short term Borrowings of the Group and providing support for the Group’s euro-commercial paper programme(s) and United States commercial paper
programme(s), provided that a US$ Swingline Advance may not be applied in or towards refinancing another Swingline Advance. 

  

	3.3	Each Euro Swingline Advance will be applied in or towards refinancing short term Borrowings of the Group and providing support for the Group’s euro-commercial paper programme(s), provided that a Euro Swingline

	3.4	Without affecting the obligations of any Borrower in any way, no Finance Party is bound to monitor or verify the application of the proceeds of any Advance.

later than 2.30 p.m. on the Utilisation Date for such Euro Swingline Advance issue instructions for all amounts actually received by it from the Euro Swingline Banks in respect of that Euro Swingline Advance to be transferred in accordance with the
payment instructions set out in the Request relating to that Euro Swingline Advance. 
  

	6.	REPAYMENT 

  

	6.1	Repayment of Revolving Facility Advances 

  

	 	6.1.1	Subject to Clause 6.3 (Repayment of Term Advances) below, each Borrower shall repay each Revolving Facility Advance made to it in full on its Term End Date to the US Agent for the Banks. No
Revolving Facility Advance may be outstanding under a Revolving Facility after the relevant Final Maturity Date. 

  

	 	6.1.2	Without prejudice to each Borrower’s obligation under Clause 6.1.1 above, if one or more Revolving Facility Advances are to be made available to a Borrower under a Revolving Facility: 

 

	 	(A)	on the same day that a maturing Revolving Facility Advance is due to be repaid by that Borrower under the same Revolving Facility; 

  

	 	(B)	in the same currency as the maturing Revolving Facility Advance; and 

  

	 	(C)	in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Revolving Facility Advance, 

the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Revolving
Facility Advance so that: 
  

	 	(1)	if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Advance exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances: 

  

	 	(a)	the relevant Borrower will only be required to pay an amount in cash in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and 

  
 30 

	 	(b)	each Bank’s participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Bank’s participation (if
any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance and that Bank will not be required to make its participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances available in cash; and 

 

	 	(2)	if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Advance is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances: 

 

	 	(a)	the relevant Borrower will not be required to make any payment in cash; and 

  

	 	(b)	each Bank will be required to make its participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances available in cash only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Advances exceeds that
Bank’s participation (if any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance and the remainder of that Bank’s participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or
towards repayment of that Bank’s participation in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance. 

  

	6.2	Repayment of Swingline Advances 

  

	 	6.2.1	Subject to Clause 6.2.2, each Borrower shall repay each Swingline Advance made to it in full on its Term End Date: 

  

	 	(A)	in respect of US$ Swingline Advances, to the US Agent for the US$ Swingline Banks; and 

  

	 	(B)	in respect of Euro Swingline Advances, to the US Agent for the Euro Swingline Banks. 

 No
Swingline Advance may be outstanding under a Swingline Facility after the relevant Final Maturity Date. 
  

	 	6.2.2	Each Swingline Advance shall be repaid on its Term End Date in accordance with Clause 6.2.1 above. In the event that a Swingline Advance under Swingline Facility A or Swingline Facility B is not so repaid, each
Revolving Facility Bank under the corresponding Revolving Facility will within four Business Days of a demand to that effect from the US$ Swingline Agent or the Euro Swingline Agent (as the case may be) pay to the US Agent on behalf of the Swingline
Banks who funded such Swingline Advance an amount equal to its Agreed Percentage of the principal of such Swingline Advance and accrued interest (including default interest) thereon to the date of actual payment by such Bank. The relevant Borrower
shall forthwith reimburse such Banks (through the US Agent) in full for each payment made by such Banks under this Clause 6.2.2. Each amount the relevant Borrower is required to reimburse to the Banks under this Clause 6.2.2 shall be deemed to be an
overdue amount (as defined in Clause 8.6.1 (Default interest)) which fell due for payment by the relevant Borrower on the day on which the payment by the Banks giving rise to the reimbursement obligation was made and shall accrue
default interest under Clause 8.6 (Default interest) accordingly. 

  

	6.3	Repayment of Term Advances 

 Each Borrower which has a Term Advance
outstanding after the Term Out Date shall repay that Advance to the US Agent on the Final Maturity Date for the Term Facility. 

  
 31 

	7.	PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION 

  

	7.1	Voluntary cancellation 

  

	 	7.1.1	The Parent may, by giving not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent and the US Agent, cancel the whole or any part of an Available Facility (but if in part, in an aggregate minimum amount
of £25,000,000). Any cancellation in part shall be applied against the Commitment of each Bank pro rata under that Facility. 

  

	 	7.1.2	Whenever part of the Total Commitments are cancelled (prior to the Term Out Date, in the case of the Total Revolving Facility A Commitments): 

 

	 	(A)	no US$ Swingline Commitment under a US$ Swingline Facility shall be cancelled unless (i) the Sterling Amount of the relevant US$ Swingline Total Commitments would exceed the Total Relevant Commitments after such
cancellation or (ii) the Sterling Amount of the US$ Swingline Commitment of any US$ Swingline Bank under the relevant US$ Swingline Facility would exceed its relevant Revolving Facility Commitment after such cancellation. In any such case, the
relevant US$ Swingline Total Commitments shall, at the same time as the cancellation of the Total Relevant Commitments takes effect, be cancelled by such amount as is necessary to ensure that after the cancellation of the Total Relevant Commitments,
the Sterling Amount of the relevant US$ Swingline Total Commitments does not exceed the Total Relevant Commitments and the Sterling Amount of the relevant US$ Swingline Commitment of each US$ Swingline Bank under the relevant US$ Swingline Facility
does not exceed its relevant Revolving Facility Commitment; and 

  

	 	(B)	no Euro Swingline Commitment under a Euro Swingline Facility shall be cancelled unless (i) the Sterling Amount of the relevant Euro Swingline Total Commitments would exceed the Total Relevant Commitments after such
cancellation or (ii) the Sterling Amount of the Euro Swingline Commitment of any Euro Swingline Bank under the relevant Euro Swingline Facility would exceed its relevant Revolving Facility Commitment after such cancellation. In any such case,
the relevant Euro Swingline Total Commitments shall, at the same time as the cancellation of the Total Relevant Commitments takes effect, be cancelled by such amount as is necessary to ensure that after the cancellation of the Total Relevant
Commitments, the Sterling Amount of the relevant Euro Swingline Total Commitments does not exceed the Total Relevant Commitments and the Sterling Amount of the relevant Euro Swingline Commitment of each Euro Swingline Bank under the relevant Euro
Swingline Facility does not exceed its relevant Revolving Facility Commitment. 

  

	7.2	Automatic cancellation of Commitment 

 The Revolving Facility
Commitment of each Bank under each Revolving Facility shall be automatically cancelled on the earlier of: (i) confirmation by the Parent that the Acquisition will not be completed; (ii) if the Closing Date has not occurred on or before
such date, 31 March 2018, and (iii) close of business in London on the applicable Final Maturity Date. 
  

	7.3	Voluntary prepayment 

  

	 	7.3.1	Any Borrower may, by giving not less than three Business Days prior written notice to the Agent and the US Agent, prepay subject to breakage costs, if any, the whole or any part of the Advances made to it under this
Agreement (but if in part in an aggregate minimum Original Sterling Amount, taking all prepayments made by all the Borrowers on the same day together, of £25,000,000). 

  
 32 

	 	7.3.2	Any voluntary prepayment under Clause 7.3.1 above will: 

  

	 	(A)	be applied against Revolving Facility Advances (or if applicable, Term Advances) in such proportions as may be specified by the Parent in the notice of prepayment or, if not specified, against all Revolving Facility
Advances (and if applicable, Term Advances) pro rata (or, if no Revolving Facility Advances are outstanding, against any Swingline Advances pro rata); 

  

	 	(B)	be applied against the relevant Advances of the relevant Banks pro rata; and 

  

	 	(C)	be accompanied by all amounts payable under Clause 23.2.3 (Other indemnities) in respect of that prepayment if not made on the Term End Date of the relevant Advance. 

 

	7.4	Mandatory Prepayment by Borrowers 

  

	 	7.4.1	If any Borrower (other than the Parent) ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Parent, it shall forthwith prepay all Advances made to it together with all amounts payable by it under this Agreement, and thereupon cease to be
a Borrower. 

  

	 	7.4.2	If any person or group of persons acting in concert gains control of the Parent: 

  

	 	(A)	the Parent shall promptly notify the Agent and the US Agent upon becoming aware of such event; and 

  

	 	(B)	if the Majority Banks so require, the Agent shall, by not less than 10 Business Days’ written notice to the Parent and the US Agent, cancel the Total Commitments and declare all outstanding Advances, together with
accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents, to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the Total Commitments will be cancelled in full and all such outstanding amounts will become immediately due and payable.

 For the purpose of this Clause 7.4.2: 

“control” has the meaning given to it in section 450 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010; and 

“acting in concert” has the meaning given to it in the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers. 

 

	7.5	Changes to Borrowers 

  

	 	7.5.1	Any Borrower in respect of which no Advance is outstanding hereunder (including any other amounts outstanding in relation thereto) may, at the request of the Parent, cease to be a Borrower by entering into a
supplemental agreement to this Agreement in such form as the Agent may reasonably require which shall discharge that Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 

  

	 	7.5.2	Any Borrower (the “Existing Borrower”) may be released from its obligations under this Agreement as a Borrower, provided that another Borrower (the “Substitute Borrower”) assumes the
obligations in respect thereof of the Existing Borrower and provided further that: 

  

	 	(A)	any such substitution shall take effect on and from the later of the day upon which the Agent notifies the Parent in writing that it is satisfied with the compliance with the matters set out in paragraphs (C) and
(D) below and the date for substitution specified in the relevant notice under paragraph (B) below; 

  

	 	(B)	notice of the proposed substitution has been delivered by the Parent to the Agent not less than 14 days prior to the proposed substitution; 

 

	 	(C)	no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and 

  
 33 

	 	(D)	the Substitute Borrower enters into a novation agreement with the Existing Borrower, the Parent and the Agent on behalf of the Banks in the form of Part III of Schedule 4 (Forms of Accession
Documents) together with such amendments as the Agent may reasonably require. 

 Each Bank authorises the Agent to sign
on its behalf any novation agreement entered into in accordance with this Clause 7.5.2. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 7.5 shall
not operate to release the Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement in its capacity as the Guarantor. 
  

	7.6	Right of cancellation in relation to a Defaulting Bank 

  

	 	7.6.1	If any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, a Borrower may, at any time whilst the Bank continues to be a Defaulting Bank, give the Agent three Business Days’ notice of cancellation of each Available Commitment of that
Bank. 

  

	 	7.6.2	On the notice referred to in Clause 7.6.1 above becoming effective, each Available Commitment of the Defaulting Bank shall immediately be reduced to zero. 

 

	 	7.6.3	The Agent shall as soon as practicable after receipt of a notice referred to in Clause 7.6.1 above, notify all the Banks. 

  

	7.7	Right of prepayment and cancellation 

 If any Borrower is
required to pay or is notified by any Bank in writing that it will be required to pay any amount to a Bank under Clause 10 (Taxes) or Clause 12 (Increased Costs), or if circumstances exist such that a Borrower will be required
to pay any amount to a Bank under Clause 10 (Taxes), the Parent may, whilst the circumstances giving rise or which will give rise to the requirement continue, serve a notice of prepayment and cancellation on that Bank through the Agent. On
the date falling five Business Days after the date of service of the notice: 
  

	 	7.7.1	each Borrower shall prepay all outstanding Advances made to it by that Bank; and 

  

	 	7.7.2	the Bank’s Commitment (including its (and its Swingline Affiliates’) Swingline Commitments (if any)) shall be permanently cancelled on the date of service of the notice. 

 

	7.8	Miscellaneous provisions 

  

	 	7.8.1	Any notice of prepayment and/or cancellation under this Agreement is irrevocable once given. The Agent shall notify the US Agent and the Banks promptly of receipt of any such notice. 

 

	 	7.8.2	All prepayments under this Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of the prepayment (including, but not limited to, any
amounts payable under Clause 23.2.3 (Other indemnities) if the prepayment is not made on the Term End Date of the relevant Advance. 

  

	 	7.8.3	No prepayment or cancellation is permitted except in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. 

  

	 	7.8.4	No amount prepaid under Clauses 7.4 (Mandatory Prepayment by Borrowers) or 7.7 (Right of prepayment and cancellation) may subsequently be reborrowed.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, any amount prepaid under Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment) in respect of a Revolving Facility or a Swingline Facility may be reborrowed. Subject to Clauses 26.11 (Increase) and 2.6
(Increase - Accordion), no amount of the Total Commitments (including the Swingline Total Commitments) cancelled under this Agreement may subsequently be reinstated. 

 

	 	7.8.5	No Borrower may reborrow any part of any Term Advance which is prepaid. 

  
 34 

	8.	INTEREST 

  

	8.1	Interest rate for Revolving Facility Advances and Term Advances 

The rate of interest on each Revolving Facility Advance and each Term Advance for its Term is the rate per annum determined by the Agent to be
the aggregate of: 
  

	 	8.1.1	the applicable Margin; and 

  

	 	8.1.2	LIBOR (or, in the case of an Advance denominated in euro, EURIBOR). 

  

	8.2	Calculation of the Margin 

  

	 	8.2.1	Subject to the following provisions of this Clause 8.2: 

  

	 	(A)	the Margin for the Term of a Revolving Facility Advance under Revolving Facility A or a Term Advance will be determined on the Rate Fixing Day for that Term by reference to the table below: 

 

			
	Rating (S&P/Moody’s)	 	Facility Margin per annum
	 A-/A3
	 	0.200 per cent.
	 BBB+/Baa1
	 	0.275 per cent.
	 BBB/Baa2
	 	0.400 per cent.
	 BBB-/Baa3 or below
	 	0.550 per cent.

  

	 	(B)	the Margin for the Term of a Revolving Facility Advance under Revolving Facility B will be determined on the Rate Fixing Day for that Term by reference to the table below: 

 

			
	Rating (S&P/Moody’s)	 	Facility Margin per annum
	 A-/A3
	 	0.275 per cent.
	 BBB+/Baa1
	 	0.350 per cent.
	 BBB/Baa2
	 	0.500 per cent.
	 BBB-/Baa3 or below
	 	0.650 per cent.

 where, for the purposes of this Clause: 

“Rating” means the corporate rating of the Parent assigned by S&P (currently known as the “Corporate
Credit Rating”) and/or Moody’s (currently known as the “Issuer Rating”) as at the Rate Fixing Day on which the Margin is being determined. 

For the avoidance of doubt, if there is a change to the Rating during the Term of a Revolving Facility Advance or a Term Advance there shall
be no adjustment to the Margin for that Term until the next Rate Fixing Day for that Advance. 
  

	 	8.2.2	If Ratings are confirmed or assigned to the Parent by S&P and Moody’s that are not equivalent at any time, then the Margin will be the average of the Margins applicable to such credit ratings.

  

	 	8.2.3	If only one Rating Agency publishes a Rating for the Parent, the rating assigned by that Rating Agency shall be deemed also to be the rating assigned by the other Rating Agency. 

 

	 	8.2.4	 If on the relevant Rate Fixing Day both Rating Agencies have ceased to publish a Rating for the Parent, the
Margin for the relevant Advance shall be determined on 

  
 35 

	 	
the basis of a deemed Corporate Credit Rating of BBB- and a deemed Issuer Rating of Baa3 until the date on which a Rating Agency publishes a Rating for the
Parent. 

  

	 	8.2.5	For so long as an Event of Default is continuing, the Margin for the relevant Advance shall be determined on the basis of a deemed Corporate Credit Rating of BBB- and a deemed
Issuer Rating of Baa3 (and any increase in the Margin pursuant to this Clause 8.2.5 shall take effect immediately following the occurrence of the relevant Event of Default). 

 

	 	8.2.6	The Parent shall notify the Agent promptly of any publicly announced change in its Rating. 

  

	 	8.2.7	In calculating the Margin for any Advance under this Clause 8.2, no account shall be taken of any rating outlook or credit watch action assigned to any Rating by the relevant Rating Agency. 

 

	8.3	Interest rate on US$ Swingline Advances 

 The rate of
interest on each US$ Swingline Advance during its Term is the rate per annum determined by the US$ Swingline Agent to be the US$ Swingline Rate for each day during its Term. 
  

	8.4	Interest rate on Euro Swingline Advances 

 The rate of
interest on each Euro Swingline Advance during its Term is the rate per annum determined by the Euro Swingline Agent to be the Euro Swingline Rate for each day during its Term. 

 

	8.5	Due dates 

  

	 	8.5.1	Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, accrued interest on each Advance is payable by the relevant Borrower on each Term End Date, and also, in the case of any Advance with a Term longer than six months, at six
monthly intervals after its Utilisation Date (or in the case of a Term Advance, the first day of the relevant Term) for so long as the Term is outstanding. 

  

	 	8.5.2	A Borrower may select a Term for a Term Advance in a Selection Notice (and the conditions in Clause 5.2.4 shall also apply to each Selection Notice). 

 

	 	8.5.3	Each Selection Notice for a Term Advance is irrevocable and must be delivered to the Agent by the Borrower to which that Term Advance was made not later than 11.00 a.m. on the applicable Rate Fixing Day.

  

	 	8.5.4	If a Borrower fails to deliver a Selection Notice to the Agent in accordance with Clause 8.5.3 above, the relevant Term will be one month. 

 

	 	8.5.5	A Term for a Term Advance shall not extend beyond the applicable Final Maturity Date. Each Term for a Term Advance shall start on the Term Out Date or on the last day of its preceding Term. 

 

	 	8.5.6	If two or more Terms: 

  

	 	(A)	relate to Term Advances in the same currency made to the same Borrower; and 

  

	 	(B)	any Term End Dates for such Term Advances are the same date, 

 those Term Advances will, unless
that Borrower specifies to the contrary in the Selection Notice for the next Term, be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Term Advance on that Term End Date. 
  

	8.6	Default interest 

  

	 	8.6.1	 If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under this Agreement (an “overdue amount”),
it shall forthwith on demand by the Agent or, as the case 

  
 36 

	 	
may be, the relevant Swingline Agent pay interest on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment, both before and after judgment, at a rate (the “default
rate”) determined by the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent to be one per cent. per annum above the higher of: 

  

	 	(A)	the rate on the overdue amount under Clause 8.1 (Interest rate for Revolving Facility Advances and Term Advances), Clause 8.3 (Interest rate
on US$ Swingline Advances) or Clause 8.4 (Interest rate on Euro Swingline Advances) immediately before the due date (in the case of principal); and 

 

	 	(B)	the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted an Advance at the highest Margin applicable at the time in the
currency of the overdue amount for such successive Terms of such duration as the Agent may determine (each a “Designated Term”). 

  

	 	8.6.2	The default rate will be determined on each Business Day or the first day of, or two Business Days before the first day of, the relevant Designated Term, as appropriate. 

 

	 	8.6.3	If the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent determines that deposits in the currency of the overdue amount are not at the relevant time being made available by the Reference Banks to leading banks
in the London interbank market, the default rate will be determined by reference to the cost of funds to the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent from whatever sources it reasonably selects after consultation with the Reference
Banks. 

  

	 	8.6.4	Default interest will be compounded at three-month intervals. 

  

	 	8.6.5	The Agent shall notify the Parent of the duration of each Designated Term. 

  

	8.7	Notification of rates of interest 

 The Agent or, as the case
may be, the relevant Swingline Agent will promptly notify each relevant Party of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 
  

	8.8	Notification 

 The Agent shall notify the Banks and the relevant Borrower of Optional
Currency amounts (and the applicable Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange) promptly after they are ascertained. 
  

	9.	PAYMENTS 

  

	9.1	Place of Payment 

 All payments by an Obligor or a Bank under this
Agreement shall be made to the Agent (in the case of a payment by a Bank) or to the US Agent (in the case of a payment by an Obligor) or, if the payment relates to a Swingline Facility, by a Bank to the relevant Swingline Agent, in each case to its
account at such office or bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency concerned (or, in the case of a payment in euro, in the financial centre of the country selected by the Agent or, as the case may be, the US Agent) as it
may notify to the Obligor or Bank for this purpose. 
  

	9.2	Funds 

 Payments under this Agreement to an Administrative Party shall be made for value
on the due date at such times and in such funds as such Administrative Party may specify to the Party concerned as being customary at the time for the settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place for payment. 

 

	9.3	Distribution 

  

	 	9.3.1	 Each payment received by an Administrative Party under this Agreement for another Party shall, subject to Clauses
9.3.2 and 9.3.3 below, be made available 

  
 37 

	 	
by such Administrative Party to that Party by payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) to its account with such bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the
relevant currency (or, in the case of a payment in euro, to its account in the financial centre of a country selected by it) as it may notify to the relevant Administrative Party for this purpose by not less than five Business Days’ prior
notice. 

  

	 	9.3.2	An Administrative Party may apply any amount received by it for an Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from an Obligor under this Agreement or in or
towards the purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied. 

  

	 	9.3.3	Where a sum is to be paid under this Agreement to an Administrative Party for the account of another Party, such Administrative Party is not obliged to pay that sum to that Party until it has established that it has
actually received that sum. Such Administrative Party may, but is not obliged to, assume that the sum has been paid to it in accordance with this Agreement and, in reliance on that assumption, make available to that Party a corresponding amount. If
the sum has not been made available but such Administrative Party has paid a corresponding amount to another Party, that Party shall forthwith on demand refund the corresponding amount to such Administrative Party together with interest on that
amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt, calculated at a rate reasonably determined by such Administrative Party to reflect its cost of funds. 

  

	9.4	Currency 

  

	 	9.4.1	A repayment or prepayment of an Advance is payable in the currency in which the Advance is denominated.

 All
payments made by an Obligor under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	9.6	Non-Business Days 

  

	 	9.6.1	If a payment under this Agreement is due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date for that payment shall instead be the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business
Day (if there is not). 

  

	 	9.6.2	During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal at the rate payable on the original due date. 

 

	9.7	Impaired Agent 

  

	 	9.7.1	If, at any time, an Administrative Party becomes an Impaired Agent and a Borrower or a Bank is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to that Administrative Party in accordance with Clause 9.1
(Place of Payment), that Borrower or Bank may, subject to Clause 9.7.2 below, instead either pay that amount: 

  

	 	(A)	direct to the required recipient; or 

  

	 	(B)	 to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has
occurred and is continuing, in 

  
 38 

	 	
the name of the relevant Borrower or the Bank making the payment and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance
Documents. In each case, such payments must be made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	9.7.2	If a Bank has become and continues to be a Defaulting Bank and a payment is required to be made by a Borrower or a Bank in accordance with Clause 9.7.1, that Obligor or Bank will make such payment in accordance with
Clause 9.7.1(B). 

  

	 	9.7.3	A Party which is required to make a payment in accordance with Clause 9.7.1 shall notify the required recipient of the account into which the payment is made. 

 

	 	9.7.4	All interest accrued on the amounts standing to the credit of a trust account shall be for the benefit of the beneficiaries of that trust account pro rata to their respective entitlements. 

 

	 	9.7.5	A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 9.7 shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with respect to the amounts
standing to the credit of the trust account. 

  

	 	9.7.6	Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Party to an Impaired Agent in accordance with Clause 19.16 (Resignation of an Administrative Party), each Party which has
made a payment to a trust account in accordance with this Clause 9.7 shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Administrative
Party for distribution in accordance with Clause 9.3 (Distribution). 

  

	9.8	Partial payments 

  

	 	9.8.1	If an Administrative Party receives a payment insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under this Agreement, such Administrative Party shall apply that payment towards the obligations

	 	9.8.2	The Administrative Parties, shall, if so directed by all the Banks, vary the order set out in Clause 9.8.1 above (other than Clause 9.8.1(A)). The Administrative Parties shall notify the Parent of any such variation.

  

	 	9.8.3	Clauses 9.8.1 and 9.8.2 above shall override any appropriation made by any Obligor. 

  

	9.9	Clawback 

  

	 	9.9.1	Where a sum is to be paid to an Administrative Party under the Finance Documents for another Party, that Administrative Party is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party (or to enter into or perform any related
exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum. 

  
 39 

	 	9.9.2	If an Administrative Party pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that that Administrative Party 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 Administrative Party shall on demand refund the same to the Administrative Party together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Administrative Party, calculated
by the Administrative Party to reflect its costs of funds. 

  

	9.10	Disruption to Payment Systems etc. 

 If either the Agent
determines (in its discretion) that a Disruption Event has occurred or the Agent is notified by the Parent that a Disruption Event has occurred: 
  

	 	9.10.1	the Agent shall consult with the Parent and shall use reasonable endeavours to agree with the Parent such changes to the operation or administration of the Facilities as the Agent may reasonably deem necessary in the
circumstances; 

  

	 	9.10.2	the Agent may consult with the Finance Parties in relation to any changes mentioned in Clause 9.10.1 but shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances;

  

	 	9.10.3	any such changes agreed upon by the Agent and the Parent shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties as an amendment to (or, as the case may be,
waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 25 (Amendments and Waivers); 

  

	 	9.10.4	the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 9.10 provided that any decision
to act, or not to act, was taken in good faith; and 

  

	 	9.10.5	the Agent shall notify the Finance Parties of all changes agreed pursuant to Clause 9.10.4 above. 

  

	9.11	Relationship between Agent and US Agent 

 The Agent
shall notify the US Agent of the details of all relevant payments (whether of principal, interest or fees) due to the Parties under this Agreement. 
  

	10.	TAXES 

  

	10.1	Gross-up 

 All payments by an Obligor under the
Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of any taxes, except to the extent that the Obligor is required by law to make payment subject to any taxes or such deduction is a FATCA Deduction. Subject to
Clauses 10.3 (Qualifying Banks) and 10.7 (US Borrower), if any tax or amounts in respect of tax (other than a FATCA Deduction) must be deducted from any amounts payable or paid by an Obligor, or paid or payable by the
Agent or the US Agent or a Swingline Agent (in their capacity as agent) (as the case may be) to a Finance Party under the Finance Documents, the Obligor shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the relevant Finance Party
receives a net amount equal to the full amount which it would have received had payment not been made subject to tax. The Parent shall upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make such deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis
of such a deduction) notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Bank shall notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Bank (and if the Agent receives such notification it shall notify the Parent). 

  
 40 

	10.2	Tax receipts 

 All taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld by an Obligor
from any amounts paid or payable under the Finance Documents shall be paid by the relevant Obligor when due and the Obligor shall, within 15 days of the payment being made, deliver to the Agent for the relevant Bank evidence satisfactory to that
Bank (including any relevant tax receipts) that the payment has been duly remitted to the appropriate authority. 
  

	10.3	Qualifying Banks 

 If: 

 

	 	10.3.1	on the Signing Date, any Bank which is a Party on the Signing Date is not a Qualifying Bank; or 

  

	 	10.3.2	after the Signing Date, a Bank ceases to be a Qualifying Bank, other than as a result of the introduction, suspension, withdrawal or cancellation of, or change in, or change in the official interpretation,
administration or official application of, any law, regulation having the force of law, tax treaty or any published practice or published concession of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs or any other relevant taxing or fiscal authority in
any jurisdiction with which the relevant Bank has a connection, occurring after the Signing Date or, if later, the date on which that Bank becomes a Party; or 

  

	 	10.3.3	on the date of any assignment, transfer or novation under Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) a New Bank (as such term is defined in that Clause) is not a Qualifying Bank, 

then no UK Resident Borrower shall be liable to pay to that Bank under Clause 10.1 (Gross-up)
any amount in respect of taxes levied or imposed by the UK or any taxing authority of or in the UK in excess of the amount (if any) it would have been obliged to pay if that Bank had been, or had not ceased to be, a Qualifying Bank. 

 

	10.4	Tax Credit 

  

	 	10.4.1	If an Obligor makes a payment pursuant to Clause 10.1 (Gross-up) for the account of any Finance Party and such Finance Party has received or been granted a credit against,
or relief or remission or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it (a “Tax Credit”) which is attributable to that payment or the corresponding payment under the Finance Document such Finance 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, pay to the Obligor concerned such amount as the Finance Party shall have reasonably determined to be attributable to such payments and which will
leave the Finance Party (after such payment) in no better or worse position than it would have been if the Obligor concerned had not been required to make any deduction or withholding. 

 

	 	10.4.2	Nothing in this Clause 10.4 shall interfere with the right of a Finance Party to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and without limiting the foregoing no Finance Party shall be under any obligation
to claim a Tax Credit or to claim a Tax Credit in priority to any other claims, relief, credit or deduction available to it. No Finance Party shall be obliged to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect
thereof. Unless it would in a Bank’s reasonable judgement be prejudicial to its interests, such Bank shall seek any Tax Credit available to it consequent upon any deductions or withholdings for tax being made from any payment to it under Clause
10.1 (Gross-up). 

  

	10.5	Borrower DTTP Filing 

  

	 	10.5.1	If a Bank holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, it shall, or the Agent shall (if notified by the Bank) on its behalf, notify the Parent in
accordance with the provisions of Clause 32 (Notices) that the relevant Bank wishes the scheme to apply and provide that Bank’s scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence within five Business Days of becoming a Party to
this Agreement. 

  
 41 

	 	10.5.2	Each Bank which wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement shall promptly provide such further information (directly to an Obligor or via the Agent) as an Obligor may request in order to enable
the Obligor to make a Borrower DTTP Filing. 

  

	 	10.5.3	If a Borrower had received authority from HM Revenue & Customs to make payments to that Bank without deduction for or on account of tax as a result of a Borrower DTTP Filing, but as a result of (i) a
withdrawal or expiry of that authority; or (ii) a withdrawal or cessation of the DTTP passport scheme due to any change in law or change in practice of HM Revenue & Customs, it is no longer possible for that Borrower to make payments
to the Bank without deduction for or on account of tax by virtue of that authority, and the Borrower has notified that Bank in writing, that Bank and the Borrower shall co-operate in completing any additional
procedural formalities necessary for that Borrower to obtain authorisation to make payment without deduction for or on account of tax. 

  

	10.6	FATCA 

  

	 	10.6.1	Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction 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. 

  

	 	10.6.2	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) in respect of an Advance made to an Obligor that is not a
US Person, notify the Party to whom it is making payment and, in addition, shall notify the Parent, the Agent and the other Finance Parties. 

  

	 	10.6.3	Subject to Clause 10.6.4 below, each Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party, confirm to that other Party whether it is entitled to receive payments under the Finance Documents
free from any deduction or withholding required by FATCA (hereafter referred to as “FATCA Exempt”) or is not so entitled, and shall supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its
status under FATCA (including information required under the US Treasury Regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests and is necessary for the purposes of that other
Party’s compliance with FATCA or any other exchange of information regime (provided that the necessity of such request is reasonably evidenced to the satisfaction of the Party to whom the request is made (acting reasonably)). If a Party
confirms to another Party pursuant to this Clause that it is FATCA Exempt and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not, or has ceased to be FATCA Exempt, that Party shall promptly notify that other Party. 

 

	 	10.6.4	Clause 10.6.3 above shall not oblige a 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.

  

	 	10.6.5	If a Finance Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with Clause 10.6.3 above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 10.6.4 above
applies), then if that Finance Party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) FATCA Exempt then such Finance Party shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement as if it is not FATCA Exempt until such time as the Finance Party provides
the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 

  

	10.7	US Borrower 

  

	 	10.7.1	 Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any Finance Party that is

  
 42 

	 	
entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments made under any Finance Document shall deliver to the Agent or the relevant Obligor, at the time or times
reasonably requested by the Agent or any Obligor, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Agent or such Obligor as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.
In addition, any Finance Party, if reasonably requested by the Agent or any Obligor, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Agent or such Obligor as will enable the Agent or such Obligor to
determine whether or not such Finance Party is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. This Clause 10.7.1 shall not require any Finance Party to provide to the Agent or any Obligor any documentation if it would result in
a breach of any applicable law or regulation, any fiduciary duty or any duty of confidentiality (other than any such documentation required to be provided under Clause 10.7.2 or Clause 10.7.3). Any taxes attributable to a Finance Party’s
failure to comply with this Clause 10.7.1 shall be considered excluded from the gross-up provided in Clause 10.1. 

  

	 	10.7.2	Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, each Finance Party that is a US Person shall: 

  

	 	(A)	on or prior to the Signing Date (or, if it becomes a Finance Party after such date, on the date it becomes a Finance Party); or 

  

	 	(B)	otherwise, from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested by the Agent or any Obligor (but only so long as such Finance Party is lawfully able to do so), 

provide the Agent and the relevant Obligor with one copy of a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service) certifying that such Finance Party is a US Person and is not subject to US backup withholding on payments made by an Obligor that is a
US Person to such Finance Party under any Finance Document. 
  

	 	10.7.3	Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing, each Finance Party that is not a US Person shall: (i) on or prior to the Signing Date (or, if it becomes a Finance Party after such date, on the date it
becomes a Finance Party); or (ii) otherwise, from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested by the Agent or any Obligor (but only so long as such Finance Party is lawfully able to do so): 

 

	 	(A)	in the case of a Finance Party claiming the benefits of an exemption from or a reduction in US federal withholding tax pursuant to a double taxation agreement between the United States and the jurisdiction of which such
Finance Party is or is treated as a resident, provide the Agent and the relevant Obligor with one copy of a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service), certifying that such Finance Party is exempt from or entitled to a reduced
rate of US federal withholding tax under an applicable double taxation agreement or treaty on payments made by an Obligor that is a US Person to such Finance Party under any Finance Document; 

 

	 	(B)	 in the case of a Finance Party claiming the benefits of an exemption from US federal withholding tax because
payments otherwise subject to such withholding tax made by an Obligor that is a US Person are effectively connected with such Finance Party’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, provide the Agent and the relevant Obligor
with one copy of a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor or other form prescribed by the

  
 43 

	 	
Internal Revenue Service) certifying that such payments are effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States; 

 

	 	(C)	in the case of a Finance Party claiming the benefits of the exemption from US federal withholding tax pursuant to Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest” made by an Obligor
that is a US Person to such Finance Party under any Finance Document, provide the Agent and the relevant Obligor with: 

  

	 	(1)	a certificate to the effect that such Finance Party is: (i) not a “bank” (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code); (ii) not a 10-percent shareholder
of any Obligor (within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code); and (iii) not a controlled foreign corporation related to any Obligor (as such term is described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code); and 

 

	 	(2)	one copy of a properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or
W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service), certifying that such Finance Party is not a US Person; or

  

	 	(D)	in the case of a Finance Party that is a foreign intermediary or foreign flow-through entity for US federal income tax purposes, provide the Agent and the relevant Obligor with one copy of a properly completed and duly
executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service) as a basis for claiming an exemption from or a reduction in US federal withholding tax
on payments made by the relevant Obligor that is a US Person to such Finance Party under any Finance Document, together with any supplementary information such Finance Party is required to transmit with such form and, in the case of a nonqualified
intermediary that is a Finance Party or a non-withholding Finance Party that is a foreign flow-through entity, with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Finance Party, one copy of the forms or
certificates described in paragraphs (A), (B) or (C) above of this Clause 10.7.3, as applicable. 

  

	 	10.7.4	 If a Finance Party fails to provide the Agent or the relevant Obligor with the appropriate Internal Revenue
Service form or, if applicable, the certificate, each as described above and each being properly completed and duly executed, or to update them as requested (other than if the failure to furnish such form or certificate is due to a change in law, or
in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which the form or certificate originally was required to be provided or if such form, certificate or other document otherwise is not required under Clause 10.7.1, 10.7.2 or
10.7.3), US backup withholding tax and US federal withholding tax, in each case, imposed on any amount paid by (or on account of) an Obligor that is a US Person under any Finance Document shall be considered excluded from the gross-up provided in Clause 10.1 by reason of such failure unless and until such Finance Party provides the appropriate Internal Revenue Service form or certificate that is properly completed and duly executed
establishing (A) an exemption from US backup withholding tax and (B) a complete exemption from, or a reduction of, US federal withholding tax on such amount, whereupon US federal withholding tax at such reduced rate only (to the extent a
complete exemption is not available to such Finance Party) shall be considered excluded from such gross-up for periods governed by such form and certificate. If any Internal Revenue Service form provided by a
Finance Party pursuant to this Clause 10.7.4 at the time such Finance Party first becomes a Finance Party hereunder, or when it first provides such form, indicates a US federal withholding tax rate in excess of zero in respect of any amount paid by
(or 

  
 44 

	 	
an account of) the relevant Obligor that is a US Person to such Finance Party under any Finance Document, US federal withholding tax imposed on such amount at such rate shall be considered
excluded from the gross-up provided in Clause 10.1 unless and until such Finance Party provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon US federal withholding tax at the lesser
rate only shall be considered excluded from the gross-up for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that if at the date a New Bank becomes a party to this Agreement or any other Finance Document,
the applicable transferor Existing Bank was entitled to payments under Clause 10.1 in respect of US federal withholding tax in connection with any amount paid at such date, then, to that extent, the payments under Clause 10.1 shall include an amount
of US federal withholding tax applicable with respect to such transferor Existing Bank on such date. 

  

	 	10.7.5	On or prior to the Signing Date (and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested by any Obligor), the US Agent shall provide to any Obligor that is a US Person a properly completed and duly executed Internal
Revenue Service Form W-9. 

  

	11.	MARKET DISRUPTION 

  

	11.1	Market disturbance 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if
and each time that prior to or on a Utilisation Date relative to an Advance to be made: 
  

	 	11.1.1	only one or no Reference Bank supplies a rate for the purposes of determining LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be); or 

  

	 	11.1.2	the Agent is notified by Banks whose Commitments represent 25 per cent or more of the Total Commitments that deposits in the currency of that Advance are not in the ordinary course of business available in the
London Interbank Market for a period equal to the Term concerned in amounts sufficient to fund their participations in that Advance; or 

  

	 	11.1.3	the Agent is notified by Banks whose Commitments represent 25 per cent or more of the Total Commitments that by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Market generally, adequate and fair means do
not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be) applicable to such Advance during its Term or LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be) does not adequately represent the cost of funding to the Banks, 

the Agent shall promptly give written notice of such circumstance (in respect of Clause 11.1.1) or notification to the Parent and to each of
the Banks. 
  

	11.2	Alternative Rates 

 If the Agent gives a notice under Clause 11.1 (Market
disturbance): 
  

	 	11.2.1	the Parent and the Banks may (through the Agent) agree that (in the case of Revolving Facility Advances) the Advances concerned shall not be borrowed; or 

 

	 	11.2.2	in the absence of such agreement: 

  

	 	(A)	the Term of the Advances concerned shall be one month; 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of Clause 11.1.2, the Advance shall be denominated in Sterling in an amount equal to the Original Sterling Amount of the Advance concerned; and 

 

	 	(C)	during the Term of each Advance the rate of interest applicable to such Advance shall be the applicable Margin plus the rate per annum notified by each Bank concerned to the Agent before the last day of such Term to be
that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Bank of funding such Advances from whatever sources it may reasonably select. 

  
 45 

	11.3	Non-availability of currency 

 If
any Bank notifies the Agent before 10.00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day prior to the proposed Utilisation Date of an Advance to be denominated in an Optional Currency that it is unable for any reason to fund its participation in such Advance
in the Optional Currency concerned, the Agent shall notify the Parent and such Bank shall make its participation in the Advance available in Sterling for the period in question. 

 

	11.4	Change in circumstances 

 If before 9.00 a.m. (London time) on the proposed
Utilisation Date in respect of an Advance which is to be denominated in an Optional Currency, there occurs any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions, currency availability, currency exchange rates or
exchange controls, which in the opinion of the Agent renders the making of the Advance in such currency impracticable: 
  

	 	11.4.1	the Agent shall give notice to each of the Banks and the Parent to that effect as soon as practicable but in any event before 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the proposed Utilisation Date; 

 

	 	11.4.2	unless the Parent and the Banks agree otherwise, the Advance shall be made in Sterling and the Rate Fixing Day for the Term of the Advance shall be the Utilisation Date; and 

 

	 	11.4.3	the relevant Borrower shall pay to the US Agent on behalf of the Bank any amount claimed in accordance with Clause 23.2 (Other indemnities). 

 

	11.5	Change in currency 

  

	 	11.5.1	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: 

 

	 	(A)	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 Agent; and 

  

	 	(B)	any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or
down by the Agent acting reasonably. 

  

	 	11.5.2	If any change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will be amended to the extent the Agent specifies to be necessary to reflect the change in the currency and to put the Finance Parties in the same
position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred. 

  

	12.	INCREASED COSTS 

  

	12.1	Increased costs 

  

	 	12.1.1	Subject to Clause 12.3 (Exceptions), the Parent shall forthwith on demand by a Finance Party pay that Finance Party the amount of any increased cost incurred by it or any of its holding companies as a result of
any change in or change in the interpretation of or introduction of any law or regulation (including any relating to taxation or reserve asset, special deposit, cash ratio, liquidity or capital adequacy requirements or any other form of banking or
monetary control introduced by any central bank or other competent authority), or reduce or repay that Finance Party’s commitments or outstandings without penalty. 

 

	 	12.1.2	In this Agreement, “increased cost” means: 

  

	 	(A)	an additional cost incurred by a Finance Party or any of its holding companies as a result of it performing, maintaining or funding its obligations under, this Agreement; or 

  
 46 

	 	(B)	that portion of an additional cost incurred by a Finance Party or any of its holding companies in making, funding or maintaining all or any advances comprised in a class of advances formed by or including the Advances
made or to be made by it under this Agreement as is attributable to it making, funding or maintaining its Advances; or 

  

	 	(C)	a reduction in any amount payable to a Finance Party or the effective return to a Finance Party under this Agreement or on its capital (or the capital of any of its holding companies); or 

 

	 	(D)	the amount of any payment made by a Finance Party, or the amount of interest or other return foregone by a Finance Party, calculated by reference to any amount received or receivable by a Finance Party from any other
Party under this Agreement. 

  

	12.2	Increased costs claim 

  

	 	12.2.1	A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 12.1 (Increased costs) shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Parent.

  

	 	12.2.2	Each Finance Party shall, as soon as practicable after a demand by the Agent or the Parent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its increased costs, detailing the calculation of the claim and confirming that
it has considered whether there are any reasonable steps available to it to mitigate the circumstances of such claim in accordance with Clause 13.2 (Mitigation) and there are no such steps available to it. 

 

	12.3	Exceptions 

 Clause 12.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to any increased
cost: 
  

	 	12.3.1	attributable to any tax or amounts in respect of tax which must be deducted from any amounts payable or paid by a Borrower, or paid or payable by the Agent or the US Agent, to a Finance Party under the Finance
Documents; 

  

	 	12.3.2	which is, or is attributable to, any tax on the overall net income, profits or gains of a Finance Party or any of its holding companies (or the overall net income, profits or gains of a division or branch of the Finance
Party or any of its holding companies) or any branch profit tax with respect to such division or branch; 

  

	 	12.3.3	attributable to a Finance Party or its Affiliate wilfully failing to comply with any law or regulation; or 

  

	 	12.3.4	attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party. 

  

	13.	ILLEGALITY AND MITIGATION 

  

	13.1	Illegality 

 If it becomes unlawful in any jurisdiction for a Bank to give effect to any
of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund or maintain any Advance or it becomes unlawful for any Affiliate of a Bank for that Bank to do so, then the Bank may notify the Parent through the Agent accordingly and thereupon: 

 

	 	13.1.1	each Borrower shall, upon request from that Bank within the period allowed or if no period is allowed, forthwith, repay any Advances made to it by that Bank together with all other amounts payable by it to that Bank
under this Agreement; and 

  

	 	13.1.2	the Bank’s Commitment shall be cancelled. 

  
 47 

	13.2	Mitigation 

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Clauses 10 (Taxes), 12
(Increased Costs) and 13.1 (Illegality), if in relation to a Finance Party circumstances arise which would result in: 
  

	 	13.2.1	any deduction, withholding or payment of the nature referred to in Clause 10 (Taxes); or 

  

	 	13.2.2	any increased cost of the nature referred to in Clause 12 (Increased Costs); or 

  

	 	13.2.3	a notification pursuant to Clause 13.1 (Illegality), 

 then without in any way limiting,
reducing or otherwise qualifying the rights of such Finance Party, such Finance Party shall promptly upon becoming aware of the same notify the Agent thereof (whereupon the Agent shall promptly notify the Parent) and such Finance Party shall use
reasonable endeavours to transfer its participation in the Facilities and its rights hereunder and under the Finance Documents to another financial institution or Facility Office not affected by the circumstances having the results set out in
Clauses 13.2.1 to 13.2.3 above and shall otherwise take such reasonable steps as may be open to it to mitigate the effects of such circumstances provided that such Finance Party shall not be under any obligation to take any such action if, in its
reasonable opinion, to do so would or would be likely to have a material adverse effect upon its business, operations or financial condition or would involve it in any unlawful activity or any activity that is contrary to its policies or any
request, guidance or directive of any competent authority (whether or not having the force of law) or (unless indemnified to its satisfaction) would involve it in any significant expense or tax disadvantage. 

 

	14.	GUARANTEE 

  

	14.1	Guarantee 

 The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally: 

 

	 	14.1.1	guarantees to each Finance Party prompt performance by each Borrower of all its obligations under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	14.1.2	undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever a Borrower does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand by the Agent pay that amount as if
the Guarantor instead of the relevant Borrower were expressed to be the principal obligor; and 

  

	 	14.1.3	indemnifies each Finance Party on demand against any loss or liability suffered by it if any obligation guaranteed by the Guarantor is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal. 

 

	14.2	Continuing guarantee 

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

	14.3	Reinstatement 

  

	 	14.3.1	Where any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Borrower or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made in whole or in part or any arrangement is made on the faith
of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise without limitation, the liability of the Guarantor under this Clause 14 shall continue as if the discharge or arrangement had

 49 

	 	14.7.1	be subrogated to any rights, security or moneys held, received or receivable by any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) or be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity in respect of any
payment made or moneys received on account of the Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 14;

distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Clause 14.7.

	19.	THE ADMINISTRATIVE PARTIES 

  

	19.1	Appointment and duties of the Administrative Parties 

Each Finance Party (other than the Agent) irrevocably: (i) appoints the Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Finance
Documents, and (ii) appoints the US Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Finance Documents, and each US$ Swingline Bank appoints the US$ Swingline Agent to act as its agent in relation to the US$ Swingline Facility, each
Euro Swingline Bank appoints the Euro Swingline Agent to act as its agent in relation to the Euro Swingline Facility, and each Finance Party irrevocably authorises the Agent or, as the case may be, the US Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant
Swingline Agent on its behalf to perform the duties and to exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically delegated to it under or in connection with the Finance Documents, together with any other incidental rights, powers and
discretions. The Administrative Parties shall have only those duties which are expressly specified in this Agreement (and no duties, responsibilities or obligations shall be implied). Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative
nature. 
  

	19.2	Relationship 

 The relationship between each Administrative Party and the other Finance
Parties is that of agent and principal only. Nothing in this Agreement constitutes any of the Administrative Parties as trustee or fiduciary for any other Party or any other person and the Administrative Parties need not hold in trust any moneys
paid to it for a Party or be liable to account for interest on those moneys. 
  

	19.3	Majority Banks’ directions 

 Each Administrative Party will be fully
protected if it acts in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Banks in connection with the exercise of any right, power or discretion or any matter not expressly provided for in the Finance Documents. Any such instructions given by the
Majority Banks will be binding on all the Banks. In the absence of such instructions, an Administrative Party may act or refuse to act as it considers to be in the best interests of all the Banks. No Administrative Party shall be liable to any Bank
for any act (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from taking any action) in accordance with an instruction of the Majority Banks. An Administrative Party may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Bank or group of Banks
until it has received any indemnification and/or security from such Bank or group of Banks that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Finance Documents and which may include payment in advance)
for any cost, loss or liability which it may incur in complying with those instructions. 
  

	19.4	Delegation 

 Each Administrative Party may act under the Finance Documents through its
personnel and agents. 
  

	19.5	Responsibility for documentation 

 No Administrative Party is responsible
to any other Party for: 

  
 59 

	 	19.5.1	the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; 

  

	 	19.5.2	the collectability of amounts payable under any Finance Document; or 

  

	 	19.5.3	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

	19.6	Default 

  

	 	19.6.1	No Administrative Party is obliged to monitor or enquire as to whether or not a Default has occurred. No Administrative Party will be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default. However, if an
Administrative Party receives notice from a Party referring to this Agreement, describing the Default and stating that the event is a Default, it shall promptly notify the Banks. 

 

	 	19.6.2	Any Administrative Party may require the receipt of security satisfactory to it from the Banks whether by way of payment in advance or otherwise, against any liability or loss which it will or may incur in taking any
proceedings or action arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document before it commences these proceedings or takes that action. 

  

	19.7	Exoneration 

  

	 	19.7.1	Without limiting Clause 19.7.2 below, no Administrative Party will be liable to any other Party for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless directly caused by its
negligence or wilful misconduct. 

  

	 	19.7.2	No Party may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of any Administrative Party in respect of any claim it might have against that Administrative Party in respect of any act or omission of any kind
(including negligence or wilful misconduct) by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document. 

  

	 	19.7.3	No Administrative Party will be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of: 

 

	 	(A)	any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control; or 

  

	 	(B)	the general risks of investment in, or the holding of assets in, any jurisdiction, 

 including
(in each case and without limitation) such damages, costs, losses, diminution in value or liability arising as a result of: nationalisation, expropriation or other governmental actions; any regulation, currency restriction, devaluation or
fluctuation; market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions or the value of assets (including any Disruption Event); breakdown, failure or malfunction of any third party transport, telecommunications, computer services or
systems; natural disasters or acts of God; war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; or strikes or industrial action. 
  

	 	19.7.4	Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting any Administrative Party’s liability, any liability of an Administrative Party arising under or in connection with any Finance
Document shall be limited to the amount of actual loss suffered (as determined by reference to the date of default of that Administrative Party or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any
special conditions or circumstances known to that Administrative Party at any time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall any Administrative Party 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 that Administrative Party has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damages. 

  
 60 

	19.8	Reliance 

 Each Administrative Party may: 

 

	 	19.8.1	rely on any notice or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by, or with the authority of, the proper person; 

 

	 	19.8.2	rely on any statement made by a director or employee of any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify; and 

 

	 	19.8.3	engage, pay for and rely on legal or other professional advisers selected by it (including those in that Administrative Party’s employment and those representing a Party other than that Administrative Party).

  

	19.9	Credit approval and appraisal 

 Without affecting the responsibility
of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Bank confirms that it: 
  

	 	19.9.1	has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied
exclusively on any information provided to it by any Administrative Party in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	19.9.2	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

  

	19.10	Information 

  

	 	19.10.1	Each Administrative Party shall promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to that Administrative Party by a Party for that person. 

 

	 	19.10.2	The Agent shall promptly supply a Bank with a copy of each document received by the Agent under Clauses 4 (Conditions Precedent) or 26.6 (Additional Borrowers) upon the request and at the
expense of that Bank. 

  

	 	19.10.3	Except where this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, no Administrative Party is obliged to review or check the accuracy or completeness of any document it forwards to another Party. 

 

	 	19.10.4	Except as provided above, no Administrative Party has any duty: 

  

	 	(A)	either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the financial condition or affairs of any Obligor or any related entity of any Obligor whether coming into
its possession or that of any of its related entities before, on or after the Signing Date; or 

  

	 	(B)	unless specifically requested to do so by a Bank in accordance with this Agreement, to request any certificates or other documents from any Obligor. 

 

	 	19.10.5	An Administrative Party may disclose the identity of a Defaulting Bank to the other Finance Parties and the Parent and shall disclose the same upon the written request of the Parent, a Borrower or the Majority Banks.

  

	19.11	The Administrative Parties individually 

  

	 	19.11.1	If it is also a Bank, each Administrative Party has the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise those rights and powers as though it were not an Administrative Party.

  

	 	19.11.2	Each Administrative Party may: 

  
 61 

	 	(A)	carry on any business with an Obligor or its related entities; 

  

	 	(B)	act as agent or trustee for, or in relation to any financing involving, an Obligor or its related entities; and 

  

	 	(C)	retain any profits or remuneration in connection with its activities under this Agreement or in relation to any of the foregoing. 

  

	19.12	Indemnities 

  

	 	19.12.1	Without limiting the liability of any Obligor under the Finance Documents, each Bank shall forthwith on demand indemnify each Administrative Party for its proportion of any cost, liability or loss incurred by that
Administrative Party in any way relating to or arising out of its acting as an Administrative Party, except to the extent that the liability or loss arises directly from that Administrative Party’s negligence or wilful misconduct.

  

	 	19.12.2	A Bank’s proportion of the liability or loss set out in Clause 19.12.1 above is the proportion which the Original Sterling Amount of its Advance(s) bears to the Original Sterling Amount of all Advances outstanding
on the date of the demand. If, however, no Advances are outstanding on the date of demand, then the proportion will be the proportion which its Commitment bears to the Total Commitments at the date of demand or, if the Total Commitments have been
cancelled, bore to the Total Commitments immediately before being cancelled. 

  

	 	19.12.3	The Parent shall forthwith on demand reimburse each Bank for any payment made by it under Clause 19.12.1 above except to the extent it arises out of the Bank’s negligence or default. 

 

	19.13	Compliance 

  

	 	19.13.1	An Administrative Party may refrain from doing anything which might, in its opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its
opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation of any jurisdiction. 

  

	 	19.13.2	Without limiting Clause 19.13.1 above, an Administrative Party need not disclose any information relating to any Obligor or any of its related entities if the disclosure might, in the opinion of that Administrative
Party constitute a breach of any law or regulation or any duty of secrecy or confidentiality or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person. 

  

	19.14	Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent or the US Agent 

If any Party owes an amount to the Agent or, as the case may be, the US Agent under the Finance Documents the Agent or, as the case may be, the
US Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which the Agent or, as the case may be, the US Agent would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply
the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance Documents that Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted. 

 

	19.15	Money held as banker 

 Each of the Agent and the US Agent shall be
entitled to deal with money paid to it by any person for the purposes of this Agreement in the same manner as other money paid to a banker by its customers except that it shall not be liable to account to any person for any interest or other amounts
in respect of the money. 
  

	19.16	Resignation of an Administrative Party 

  

	 	19.16.1	 Notwithstanding its irrevocable appointment an Administrative Party may resign by giving notice to the Banks and
the Parent, in which case the Parent may (following consultation with the Banks, or the relevant Swingline Banks, as the 

  
 62 

	 	
case may be) forthwith appoint a successor Administrative Party (which shall be a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank) or, failing that, the retiring Administrative Party shall forthwith appoint its
successor or, failing that, the Majority Banks shall appoint the successor Administrative Party. 

  

	 	19.16.2	The resignation of the retiring Administrative Party and the appointment of any successor Administrative Party will both become effective only upon the successor Administrative Party notifying all the Parties that it
accepts the appointment. On giving the notification and receiving such approval, the successor Administrative Party will succeed to the position of the retiring Administrative Party and the term “Agent”, “US Agent”, “US$
Swingline Agent” or “Euro Swingline Agent” will mean the successor Agent, successor US Agent, successor US$ Swingline Agent or successor Euro Swingline Agent. 

 

	 	19.16.3	The retiring Administrative Party shall, at its own cost, make available to its successor such documents and records and provide such assistance as the relevant successor Administrative Party may reasonably request for
the purposes of performing its functions as the relevant Administrative Party under this Agreement. 

  

	 	19.16.4	Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause 19 shall continue to benefit the relevant retiring Administrative Party in respect of any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with the Finance
Documents while it was the relevant Administrative Party and, subject to Clause 19.16.3 above, it shall have no further obligation under any Finance Document. 

  

	 	19.16.5	Notwithstanding the irrevocable appointment of an Administrative Party, after consultation with the Parent, the Majority Banks may, by notice to that Administrative Party, require it to resign in accordance with Clause
19.16.1 above. In this event, such Administrative Party shall resign in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above. 

  

	 	19.16.6	An Administrative Party shall resign in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to that Administrative Party
under the Finance Documents: 

  

	 	(A)	that Administrative Party fails to respond to a request under Clause 10.6 (FATCA) and an Obligor or a Bank reasonably believes that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt
(as defined in Clause 10.6 (FATCA)) on or after that FATCA Application Date; 

  

	 	(B)	the information supplied by that Administrative Party pursuant to Clause 10.6 (FATCA) indicates that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt on or after that FATCA
Application Date; or 

  

	 	(C)	that Administrative Party notifies an Obligor and the Bank that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt on or after that FATCA Application Date, 

and (in each case) an Obligor or a Bank reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required
if that Administrative Party were FATCA Exempt, and the Obligor or a Bank, by notice to that Administrative Party, requires it to resign. 
  

	 	19.16.7	If an Administrative Party resigns pursuant to Clause 19.16.6 above: 

  

	 	(A)	its successor shall be appointed in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above; and 

  

	 	(B)	such resignation shall only become effective when the successor Administrative Party notifies all the Parties that it accepts such appointment. 

  
 63 

	19.17	Replacement of an Administrative Party 

  

	 	19.17.1	After consultation with the Parent, the Majority Banks may, by giving 30 days’ written notice to the relevant Administrative Party (or, at any time the relevant Administrative Party is an Impaired Agent, by giving
any shorter notice determined by the Majority Banks) replace that Administrative Party by appointing a successor Administrative Party. 

  

	 	19.17.2	The retiring Administrative Party shall (at its own cost if it is an Impaired Agent and otherwise at the expense of the Banks) make available to the successor Administrative Party such documents and records and provide
such assistance as the successor Administrative Party may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as agent under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	19.17.3	The appointment of the successor Administrative Party shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Banks to the retiring Administrative Party. As from this date, the retiring Administrative
Party shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this Clause 19 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Administrative Party shall cease to accrue from
(and shall be payable on) that date). 

  

	 	19.17.4	Any successor Administrative Party 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. 

 

	19.18	Banks 

 Each Administrative Party may treat each Bank as a Bank, entitled to payments
under this Agreement and as acting through its Facility Office(s) until it has received notice from the Bank to the contrary by not less than five Business Days prior to the relevant payment. 

 

	19.19	Regulatory Position 

 The Agent is authorised by the Prudential Regulation
Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Agent to carry on an activity of the kind specified by any provision of Part II (other than article 5
(accepting deposits)) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001 or to lend money to any Borrower in its capacity as Agent. 
  

	19.20	Chinese Wall 

 In acting as an Administrative Party, the agency and syndications
division of each Administrative Party shall be treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired at any time by an Administrative Party otherwise than in the capacity of an Administrative Party through
its agency and syndications division (whether as financial advisor to any member of the Group or otherwise) may be treated as confidential by that Administrative Party and shall not be deemed to be information possessed by that Administrative Party
in their capacity as such. Each Finance Party acknowledges that each Administrative Party may, now or in the future, be in possession of, or provided with, information relating to the Obligors which has not or will not be provided to the other
Finance Parties. Each Finance Party agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement no Administrative Party will be under any obligation to provide, or under any liability for failure to provide, any such information.

 Accounts maintained by a Finance Party in connection with this Agreement are
prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate.

fee) accrue from day to day and are calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days or, in the case of interest at the US$ Swingline Rate or Euro Swingline Rate or any interest payable on an amount
denominated in a currency other than Sterling, 360 days (or such other day count convention as shall be consistent with the then generally accepted practice in the London interbank market). 

 

	25.	AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 

  

	25.1	Procedure 

  

	 	25.1.1	Subject to Clause 25.2 (Exceptions), any term of the Finance Documents may be amended or waived with the agreement of the Parent and the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Banks). The Agent may
effect, on behalf of the Banks, any amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 25.1.1. 

  

	 	25.1.2	The Agent shall promptly notify the other Parties of any amendment or waiver effected under Clause 25.1.1 above, and any such amendment or waiver shall be binding on all the Parties. 

 

	25.2	Exceptions 

  

	 	25.2.1	An amendment or waiver which relates to: 

  

	 	(A)	the definition of “Majority Banks” in Clause 1.1 (Definitions); 

  

	 	(B)	an extension of the date for, or a decrease in an amount or a change in the currency of, any payment under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(C)	an increase in a Bank’s Commitment; 

  

	 	(D)	a change in the guarantee under Clause 14 (Guarantee); 

  

	 	(E)	a term of a Finance Document which expressly requires the consent of each Bank; or 

  

	 	(F)	Clause 29 (Pro Rata Sharing) or this Clause 25 (Amendments and Waivers), 

may not be effected without the consent of each Bank. 

  
 68 

	 	25.2.2	An amendment or waiver which relates to the rights or obligations of an Administrative Party (in its capacity as such) may not be effected without the consent of that Administrative Party. 

 

	25.3	Waivers and remedies cumulative 

 The rights of each Party under the
Finance Documents: 
  

	 	25.3.1	may be exercised as often as necessary; 

  

	 	25.3.2	are cumulative and not exclusive of its rights under the general law; and 

  

	 	25.3.3	may be waived only in writing and specifically. 

 Delay in exercising or non-exercise of any such right is not a waiver of that right. 
  

	26.	CHANGES TO THE PARTIES 

  

	26.1	Transfers by Obligors 

 No Obligor may assign, transfer, novate or dispose
of any of, or any interest in, its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, except in the manner contemplated in Clause 7.5 (Changes to Borrowers). 

 

	26.2	Transfers by Banks 

  

	 	26.2.1	A Bank (the “Existing Bank”) may at any time assign, transfer, novate or sub-participate any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to another
person (the “New Bank”) provided that: 

  

	 	(A)	the Parent shall have given its prior written consent to such assignment, transfer, novation or sub-participation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, having
regard (without limitation) to the relative credit rating of the New Bank and the other Banks), except that such consent shall not be required if an Event of Default is outstanding or where the New Bank is an Existing Bank or is an Affiliate of the
Existing Bank or any other Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of a partial assignment, transfer or novation of rights and/or obligations, a minimum amount of £5,000,000 (unless to an Affiliate of the Existing Bank or the Agent agrees otherwise) must be assigned,
transferred or novated; and 

  

	 	(C)	in the case of an assignment, transfer or novation by a Swingline Bank, a portion of that Swingline Bank’s Swingline Commitment must also be assigned, transferred or novated to the extent necessary (if at all) to
ensure that the Swingline Bank’s Swingline Commitments under a Revolving Facility do not exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment under that Revolving Facility after the assignment, transfer or novation. A Bank may not acquire a Swingline
Commitment under a Revolving Facility if that Swingline Commitment would exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment under that Revolving Facility. 

  

	 	26.2.2	A transfer of obligations will be effective only if either: 

  

	 	(A)	the obligations are novated in accordance with Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations); or 

  

	 	(B)	the New Bank confirms to the Agent and the Parent that it undertakes to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Bank in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Parent. On the transfer becoming
effective in this manner the Existing Bank shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that they are transferred to the New Bank. 

  
 69 

	 	26.2.3	On each occasion an Existing Bank assigns, transfers or novates any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (other than to an Affiliate), the New Bank shall, on the date the assignment, transfer and/or
novation takes effect, pay to the Agent for its own account a fee of £2,500. 

  

	 	26.2.4	An Existing Bank is not responsible to a New Bank for: 

  

	 	(A)	the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; 

  

	 	(B)	the collectability of amounts payable under any Finance Document; or 

  

	 	(C)	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

	 	26.2.5	Each New Bank confirms to the Existing Bank and the other Finance Parties that it: 

  

	 	(A)	has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied
exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Bank in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	(B)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under this Agreement or any Commitment is in force.

  

	 	26.2.6	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Bank to: 

  

	 	(A)	accept a re-transfer from a New Bank of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 26.2; or 

 

	 	(B)	support any losses incurred by the New Bank by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise. 

 

	 	26.2.7	Any reference in this Agreement to a Bank includes a New Bank but excludes a Bank if no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and its Commitment has been cancelled or reduced to nil.

  

	26.3	Procedure for novations 

  

	 	26.3.1	A novation is effected if: 

  

	 	(A)	the Existing Bank and the New Bank deliver to the Agent a duly completed certificate (a “Novation Certificate”), substantially in the form of Part I of Schedule 4 (Forms of
Accession Documents), with such amendments as the Agent approves to achieve a substantially similar effect (which may be delivered by fax and confirmed by delivery of a hard copy original but the fax will be effective irrespective of
whether confirmation is received); and 

  

	 	(B)	the Agent (except if the novation is to an Existing Bank or an Affiliate of the Existing Bank or any other Bank) executes it. The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Novation Certificate delivered to it by the
Existing Bank and the New Bank 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 Bank. 

 

	 	26.3.2	Each Party (other than the Existing Bank, the New Bank and the Parent) irrevocably authorises the Agent to execute any duly completed Novation Certificate on its behalf. 

 

	 	26.3.3	To the extent that they are expressed to be the subject of the novation in the Novation Certificate: 

  
 70 

	 	(A)	the Existing Bank and the other Parties (the “Existing Parties”) will be released from their obligations to each other (the “discharged obligations”); 

 

	 	(B)	the New Bank and the Existing Parties will assume obligations towards each other which differ from the discharged obligations only insofar as they are owed to or assumed by the New Bank instead of the Existing Bank;

  

	 	(C)	the rights of the Existing Bank against the Existing Parties and vice versa (the “discharged rights”) will be cancelled; and 

 

	 	(D)	the New Bank and the Existing Parties will acquire rights against each other which differ from the discharged rights only insofar as they are exercisable by or against the New Bank instead of the Existing Bank,

 all on the date of execution of the Novation Certificate by the Agent, the Existing Party, the New Party and the Parent or,
if later, the date specified in the Novation Certificate. 
  

	 	26.3.4	If the effective date of a novation (other than a novation by an Existing Bank to an Affiliate) is after the date a Request is received by the Agent but before the date the requested Advance is disbursed to the relevant
Borrower, the Existing Bank shall be obliged to participate in that Advance in respect of its discharged obligations notwithstanding that novation, and the New Bank shall reimburse the Existing Bank for its participation in that Advance and all
interest and fees thereon up to the date of reimbursement (in each case to the extent attributable to the discharged obligations) within three Business Days of the Utilisation Date of that Advance. 

 

	26.4	Security over Bank’s Rights 

 A Bank may, without consulting
with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge to, assign to, or otherwise create a Security Interest 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 Bank to a federal reserve, central bank or any authorised government body, except that no such charge, assignment or Security Interest shall: 
  

	 	26.4.1	release a Bank from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, assignment or Security Interest for the Bank as party to any of the Finance Documents; or

  

	 	26.4.2	affect the obligations of the Obligors under the Finance Documents or require any payments to be made by an 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 Bank under the Finance Documents. 

  

	26.5	Pro rata interest settlement 

  

	 	26.5.1	If the Agent has notified the Banks that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Existing Banks and New Banks then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 26.2
(Transfer by Banks) or a novation pursuant to Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations) the date on which the transfer or novation effective (the “Transfer Date”) of which, in each case,
is after the date of such notification and is not on a Term End Date): 

  

	 	(A)	 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 Bank up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Bank (without further interest accruing on them)
on the Term End 

  
 71 

	 	
Date of the current Term (or, if the Term is longer than six months, on the next of the dates which falls at six monthly intervals after the first day of that Term); and 

 

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

 

	 	(1)	when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account of the Existing Bank; and 

  

	 	(2)	the amount payable to the New Bank on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 26.5, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

  

	 	26.5.2	In this Clause 26.5, references to “Term” shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees. 

 

	26.6	Additional Borrowers 

  

	 	26.6.1	If the Parent wishes one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries to become an Additional Borrower, then it may (if the Majority Banks and the Agent have approved the identity of the Additional Borrower in writing) deliver to
the Agent the documents listed in Part II of Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent Documents). 

  

	 	26.6.2	On delivery of a Borrower Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Parent, the Subsidiary concerned will become an Additional Borrower. However, it may not submit a Request until the Agent
confirms to the other Finance Parties and the Parent that it has received all the documents referred to in Clause 26.6.1 above in form and substance satisfactory to it. 

 

	 	26.6.3	Delivery of a Borrower Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Parent, constitutes confirmation by that Subsidiary that the representations and warranties set out in Clause 15
(Representations and Warranties), except for Clause 15.8 (Litigation), Clause 15.9 (Material adverse change), Clause 15.10 (Accounts) and Clause 15.11 (Sanctions and
Anti-Bribery and Corruption)), deemed to be made by it on the date of the Borrower Accession Agreement are correct, as if made with reference to the facts and circumstances then existing. 

 

	26.7	Bank Retirement 

  

	 	26.7.1	Without prejudice to Clause 26.13 (Replacement of a Defaulting Bank), the Parent may, at any time whilst an Event of Default is not continuing, require a Bank to retire from the
Facilities by giving at least ten Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Parties and the relevant Bank. 

  

	 	26.7.2	If the Parent has given its prior written consent to such retirement (which consent may be withheld in the Parent’s absolute discretion), a Bank may retire from the Facilities by giving at least ten Business
Days’ notice to each of the Administrative Parties and the Parent. 

  

	 	26.7.3	On expiry of a notice (a “Retirement Notice”) given pursuant to Clause 26.7.1 or 26.7.2 then, at the Parent’s option: 

 

	 	(A)	

  

	 	(1)	the Commitment of the relevant Bank shall be automatically cancelled; 

  

	 	(2)	each Borrower shall repay any Advances made to it by the relevant Bank together with all accrued interest on the amount repaid, all accrued commitment fees on the cancelled Commitment, and any other amounts payable by
it to that Bank under this Agreement (including under Clause 23.2.3 (Other indemnities)); and 

  
 72 

	 	(3)	(upon payment of the amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (2) above) the relevant Bank shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement and shall cease to have any rights or
obligations hereunder (other than in respect of any amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (2) subsequently required by a court of competent jurisdiction to be repaid by the relevant Bank to any person); or

  

	 	(B)	the relevant Bank shall novate to another bank or financial institution selected by the Parent its Commitment and the Advances made by it in accordance with Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations).

  

	 	26.7.4	Any Retirement Notice is irrevocable once given. 

  

	26.8	Reference Banks 

 If a Reference Bank (or, if a Reference Bank is not a Bank, the
Bank of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Bank, the Agent shall (in consultation with the Parent) appoint another Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank which is not a Reference Bank to replace that Reference Bank. 

 

	26.9	Register 

 The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of each Borrower, shall
maintain at one of its offices a copy of each transfer effected pursuant to Clause 26.2 and a register for the recordation of the names and Facility Offices of the Banks, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the
Advances owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Agent, the US Agent and the Banks shall treat each person whose
name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers and any Bank, at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. 
  

	26.10	Affiliates of Banks 

  

	 	26.10.1	Each Bank may fulfil its obligations in respect of any Advance through an Affiliate if: 

  

	 	(A)	the relevant Affiliate is specified in this Agreement as a Bank or becomes a Bank by means of a Novation Certificate in accordance with this Agreement; and 

 

	 	(B)	the Advances in which that Affiliate will participate are specified in this Agreement or in a notice given by that Bank to the Agent and the Borrowers. 

In this event, the Bank and the Affiliate will participate in Advances in the manner provided for in
sub-paragraph (B) above. 
  

	 	26.10.2	If Clause 26.10.1 above applies, the Bank and its Affiliate will be treated as having a single Commitment and a single vote, but, for all other purposes, will be treated as separate Banks. 

 

	26.11	Increase 

  

	 	26.11.1	The Parent may by giving prior written notice to the Agent after the effective date of a cancellation of: 

  

	 	(A)	the Available Commitments of a Defaulting Bank in accordance with Clause 7.6 (Right of cancellation in relation to a Defaulting Bank); or 

 

	 	(B)	 the Commitments of a Bank in accordance with Clause 13.1 (Illegality),

  
 73 

 
request that the Total Revolving Facility A Commitments and/or Total Revolving Facility B Commitments (as applicable) be increased (and the Total Commitments shall be so increased) in an
aggregate amount under each relevant Revolving Facility in sterling of up to the amount of the Available Commitments or Commitments so cancelled under that Revolving Facility as follows: 

 

	 	(1)	the increased Total Commitments will be assumed by one or more Banks or other banks or financial institutions (each an “Increase Bank”) selected by the Parent (each of which shall not be a member of the
Group and which is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably)), and each of which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of a Bank corresponding to that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume, as if
it had been an Original Bank; 

  

	 	(2)	each Obligor and any Increase Bank shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another as that Obligor and the Increase Bank would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Bank
been an Original Bank; 

  

	 	(3)	each Increase Bank shall become a Party as a “Bank” and any Increase Bank and each of the other Finance Parties shall assume obligations towards one another and acquire rights against one another as that
Increase Bank and those Finance Parties would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Bank been an Original Bank; and 

  

	 	(4)	the Commitments of the other Banks shall continue in full force and effect. 

  

	 	26.11.2	An increase in the Total Commitments will only be effective on: 

  

	 	(A)	the execution by the Agent of an Increase Confirmation from the relevant Increase Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	in relation to an Increase Bank which is not a Bank immediately prior to the relevant increase, the performance by the Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable
laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Bank, the completion of which the Agent shall promptly notify to the Parent and the Increase Bank; and 

 

	 	(C)	any increase in the Total Commitments shall take effect on the date specified by the Parent in the notice referred to in Clause 26.11.1 above or any later date on which the conditions set out in this Clause 26.11.2 are
satisfied. 

  

	 	26.11.3	Each Increase Bank, by executing the Increase Confirmation, confirms (for the avoidance of doubt) that the Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of
the relevant Bank or Banks in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the increase becomes effective. 

  

	 	26.11.4	Unless the Agent otherwise agrees or the increased Commitment is assumed by an Existing Bank, the Obligors shall, on the date upon which the increase takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of
£2,000 and the Obligors shall promptly on demand pay the Agent the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred by it in connection with any increase in Commitments under this Clause 26.11. 

 

	 	26.11.5	Clauses 26.2.4 to 26.2.6 (both inclusive), shall apply mutatis mutandis in this Clause 26.11 in relation to an Increase Bank as if references in that Clause to: 

 

	 	(A)	an “Existing Bank” were references to all the Banks immediately prior to the relevant increase; 

  

	 	(B)	the “New Bank” were references to that “Increase Bank”; and 

  
 74 

	 	(C)	a “re-transfer” and “re-assignment” were references to respectively a “transfer” and
“assignment”. 

  

	26.12	Disenfranchisement of a Bank 

  

	 	26.12.1	For so long as a Disenfranchised Bank (as such term is defined in Clause 20.2.3 (Commitment fee)) has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining the Majority Banks or whether any given percentage has been
obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, that Disenfranchised Bank’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments. 

 

	 	26.12.2	For the purposes of this Clause 26.12, the Agent may assume that the following Banks are Disenfranchised Banks: 

  

	 	(A)	any Bank which has notified the Agent that it has become a Disenfranchised Bank; and 

  

	 	(B)	any Bank 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 Bank” has occurred and, in so far as such event
or circumstance relates to paragraph (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Bank”, it has received a notice of cancellation from the Parent in respect of that Bank pursuant to Clause 7.6 (Right of cancellation
in relation to a Defaulting Bank), 

 unless it has received notice to the contrary
from the Bank concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Bank has ceased to be a Disenfranchised Bank. 

 

	26.13	Replacement of a Defaulting Bank 

  

	 	26.13.1	Without prejudice to Clause 26.7 (Bank Retirement), the Parent may, at any time a Bank has become and continues to be a Defaulting Bank, by giving five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent
and such Bank: 

  

	 	(A)	replace such Bank by requiring such Bank to (and such Bank shall) transfer pursuant to this Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement; or 

  

	 	(B)	require such Bank to (and such Bank shall) transfer pursuant to this Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) all (and not part only) of the undrawn Commitments of the Bank, 

to a Bank or other bank or financial institution (a “Replacement Bank”) selected by the Parent, and which (unless the
Agent is an Impaired Agent) is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations or all the relevant obligations of the transferring Bank (including the assumption of the
transferring Bank’s participations or unfunded participations (as the case may be) on the same basis as the transferring Bank) for a purchase price in cash, payable at the time of transfer, equal to the outstanding principal amount of such
Bank’s participation in the outstanding Advances and all accrued but unpaid interest, any amounts payable under Clause 23.2 (Other indemnities) and any other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents. 

 

	 	26.13.2	The Agent may in its absolute discretion (and is authorised by each Finance Party, but is not obliged by the Obligors, to) execute, without requiring any further consent or action from any other Party, a Novation
Certificate on behalf of any Defaulting Bank which is required to transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Clause 26.13 above which shall be effective for the purposes of Clause 26.3 (Procedure for
novations). The Agent shall not be liable in any way for any action taken by it pursuant to this Clause 26.13 and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Clause 19.7 (Exoneration) shall apply in relation thereto.

  
 75 

	 	26.13.3	Any transfer of rights and obligations of a Defaulting Bank pursuant to this Clause 26.13 shall be subject to the following conditions: 

 

	 	(A)	neither the Agent nor the Defaulting Bank shall have any obligation to the Obligors to find a Replacement Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	the transfer must take place no later than seven days after the notice referred to in Clause 26.13.1 above; and 

  

	 	(C)	in no event shall the Defaulting Bank be required to pay or surrender to the Replacement Bank any of the fees received by the Defaulting Bank pursuant to the Finance Documents. 

 

	 	26.13.4	For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of the Obligors under Clause 26.7 (Bank Retirement) and Clause 26.13 (Replacement of a Defaulting Bank) are without prejudice to
each other and the rights under each Clause are capable of being exercised independently of each other by the Obligors. 

  

	27.	DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION AND KNOW YOUR CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS 

  

	27.1	Disclosure of information 

 A Bank may disclose: 

 

	 	27.1.1	a copy of any Finance Document; and

	 	27.1.6	any person to whom it is required to disclose such information under any law or regulation or by any taxation or regulatory authority, 

provided that a Bank shall not disclose any such information to a person under: 

 

	 	(a)	Clause 27.1.3 above unless such person is informed of its confidential nature and that some or all of such information may be price-sensitive information and such person is subject to professional obligations to
maintain the confidentiality of the information or is otherwise bound by requirements of confidentiality in relation to such information; and 

  

	 	(b)	Clause 27.1.4 above (other than one of its Affiliates) unless that person has provided to that Bank a confidentiality undertaking addressed to that Bank and the Parent substantially in the form of Schedule 5
(Form of Confidentiality Undertaking) or such other form as the Parent may approve.

	27.3	Know your Customer requirements 

  

	 	27.3.1	Each Obligor must promptly on the request of any Finance Party supply to that Finance Party any documentation or other evidence which is reasonably requested by that Finance Party (whether for itself, on behalf of any

	 	27.3.2	Each Bank must promptly on the request of the Agent supply to the Agent any documentation or other evidence which is reasonably required by the Agent to carry out and be satisfied with the results of all applicable know

	28.	SET-OFF 

 Whilst an Event of Default is
continuing, a Finance Party may set off any matured obligation owed by an Obligor under this Agreement (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to that
Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. 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. If either obligation is unliquidated or unascertained, the Finance Party may set off in an amount estimated by it in good faith to be the amount of that obligation.

  
 77 

	29.	PRO RATA SHARING 

  

	29.1	Redistribution 

 If any amount owing by an Obligor under this Agreement to a Finance
Party (the “recovering Finance Party”) is discharged by payment, set-off or any other manner other than in accordance with Clause 9 (Payments) (a
“recovery”), then: 
  

	 	29.1.1	the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the recovery to the Agent; 

  

	 	29.1.2	the Agent shall determine whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Finance Party would have received had the recovery been received and distributed in accordance with Clause 9
(Payments); 

  

	 	29.1.3	subject to Clause 29.3 (Exception), the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent pay to the Agent an amount (the “redistribution”) equal to the excess;

  

	 	29.1.4	the Agent shall treat the redistribution as if it were a payment by the Obligor concerned under Clause 9 (Payments) and shall pay the redistribution to the Finance Parties (other than the recovering Finance
Party) in accordance with Clause 9.8 (Partial payments); and 

  

	 	29.1.5	after payment of the full redistribution, the recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the portion of the claims paid under Clause 29.1.4 above, and that Obligor will owe the recovering Finance Party a debt which
is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged. 

  

	29.2	Reversal of redistribution 

 If under Clause 29.1 (Redistribution):

  

	 	29.2.1	a recovering Finance Party must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to an Obligor; and 

 

	 	29.2.2	the recovering Finance Party has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery, 

 each
Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the recovering Finance Party through the Agent, reimburse the recovering Finance Party all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party. Thereupon the
subrogation in Clause 29.1.5 will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement. 
  

	29.3	Exception 

 A recovering Finance Party need not pay a redistribution to the extent that
it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the Obligor concerned in the amount of the redistribution pursuant to Clause 29.1.5. 
  

	30.	SEVERABILITY 

 If a provision of any Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect: 
  

	 	30.1.1	the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	30.1.2	the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other provision of the Finance Documents. 

  

	31.	COUNTERPARTS

England have jurisdiction to settle any disputes in connection with any Finance Document (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of any Finance Document or any non-contractual
obligations arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document) and accordingly submits to the jurisdiction of the English courts. 
  

	34.2	Service of process 

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

	 	34.2.1	irrevocably appoints the Parent as its agent for service of process relating to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document (and the Parent accepts this appointment);

  

	 	34.2.2	agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned; and

	34.3	Forum convenience and enforcement abroad

	34.4	Non-exclusivity 

 Nothing in this Clause 34
limits the right of a Finance Party to bring proceedings or enforce a judgment against an Obligor in connection with any Finance Document: 
  

	 	34.4.1	in any other court of competent jurisdiction; or 

  

	 	34.4.2	to the extent permitted by applicable law, concurrently in more than one jurisdiction.

 81 

	36.	GOVERNING LAW

with English law. 
  

	37.	US PATRIOT ACT 

 Each Finance Party that is subject to the requirements of
the (ii) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Public Law 107-56 (commonly known as the USA Patriot Act) (the USA
Patriot Act) hereby notifies each Obligor that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Obligors, which information includes the name and address of the Obligors

	6.	REPAYMENT 

  

	6.1	Repayment of Revolving Facility Advances 

  

	 	6.1.1	Each Borrower shall repay each Revolving Facility Advance made to it in full on its Maturity Date to the Agent for the Banks. No Revolving Facility Advance may be outstanding after the Final Maturity Date.

  

	 	6.1.2	Without prejudice to each Borrower’s obligation under Clause 6.1.1 above, if one or more Revolving Facility Advances are to be made available to a Borrower: 

 

	 	(A)	on the same day that a maturing Revolving Facility Advance is due to be repaid by that Borrower; 

  

	 	(B)	in the same currency as the maturing Revolving Facility Advance; and 

  

	 	(C)	in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Revolving Facility Advance, 

the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Revolving
Facility Advance so that: 
  

	 	(1)	if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Advance exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances: 

  
 23 

	 	(a)	the relevant Borrower will only be required to pay an amount in cash in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and 

  

	 	(b)	each Bank’s participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Bank’s participation (if
any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance and that Bank will not be required to make its participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances available in cash; and 

 

	 	(2)	if the amount of the maturing Revolving Facility Advance is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Revolving Facility Advances: 

 

	 	(a)	the relevant Borrower will not be required to make any payment in cash; and 

  

	 	(b)	each Bank will be required to make its participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances available in cash only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the new Revolving Facility Advances exceeds that
Bank’s participation (if any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance and the remainder of that Bank’s participation in the new Revolving Facility Advances shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or
towards repayment of that Bank’s participation in the maturing Revolving Facility Advance. 

  

	6.2	Repayment of Swingline Advances 

  

	 	6.2.1	Subject to Clause 6.2.2, each Borrower shall repay each Swingline Advance made to it in full on its Maturity Date: 

  

	 	(A)	in respect of US$ Swingline Advances, to the US$ Swingline Agent for the US$ Swingline Banks; and 

  

	 	(B)	in respect of Euro Swingline Advances, to the Euro Swingline Agent for the Euro Swingline Banks. 

No Swingline Advance may be outstanding after the Final Maturity Date. 

 

	 	6.2.2	Each Swingline Advance shall be repaid on its Maturity Date in accordance with Clause 6.2.1 above. In the event that a Swingline Advance is not so repaid, each Revolving Facility Bank will within four Business Days of a
demand to that effect from the US$ Swingline Agent or the Euro Swingline Agent (as the case may be) pay to that Swingline Agent on behalf of the Swingline Banks who funded such Swingline Advance an amount equal to its Agreed Percentage of the
principal of such Swingline Advance and accrued interest (including default interest) thereon to the date of actual payment by such Bank. The relevant Borrower shall forthwith reimburse such Banks (through the Agent) in full for each payment made by
such Banks under this Clause 6.2.2. Each amount the relevant Borrower is required to reimburse to the Banks under this Clause 6.2.2 shall be deemed to be an overdue amount (as defined in Clause 8.6.1 (Default interest)) which fell due
for payment by the relevant Borrower on the day on which the payment by the Banks giving rise to the reimbursement obligation was made and shall accrue default interest under Clause 8.6 (Default interest) accordingly.

  
 24 

	7.	PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION 

  

	7.1	Voluntary cancellation 

  

	 	7.1.1	The Parent may, by giving not less than three Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, cancel the whole or any part of the Available Facility (but if in part, in an aggregate minimum amount of
£25,000,000). Any cancellation in part shall be applied against the Commitment of each Bank pro rata under that Facility. 

  

	 	7.1.2	Whenever part of the Total Commitments are cancelled: 

  

	 	(A)	no US$ Swingline Commitment under the US$ Swingline Facility shall be cancelled unless (i) the Sterling Amount of the US$ Swingline Total Commitments would exceed the Total Commitments after such cancellation or
(ii) the Sterling Amount of the US$ Swingline Commitment of any US$ Swingline Bank would exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment after such cancellation. In any such case, the US$ Swingline Total Commitments shall, at the same time as the
cancellation of the Total Commitments takes effect, be cancelled by such amount as is necessary to ensure that after the relevant cancellation of the Total Commitments, the Sterling Amount of the US$ Swingline Total Commitments does not exceed the
Total Commitments and the Sterling Amount of the US$ Swingline Commitment of each US$ Swingline Bank under the US$ Swingline Facility does not exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment; and 

 

	 	(B)	no Euro Swingline Commitment under the Euro Swingline Facility shall be cancelled unless (i) the Sterling Amount of the Euro Swingline Total Commitments would exceed the Total Commitments after such cancellation or
(ii) the Sterling Amount of the Euro Swingline Commitment of any Euro Swingline Bank would exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment after such cancellation. In any such case, the Euro Swingline Total Commitments shall, at the same time as the
cancellation of the Total Commitments takes effect, be cancelled by such amount as is necessary to ensure that after the relevant cancellation of the Total Commitments, the Sterling Amount of the Euro Swingline Total Commitments does not exceed the
Total Commitments and the Sterling Amount of the Euro Swingline Commitment of each Euro Swingline Bank under the Euro Swingline Facility does not exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment. 

 

	7.2	Automatic cancellation of Commitment 

 The Revolving Facility
Commitment of each Bank shall be automatically cancelled at the close of business in London on the Final Maturity Date. 
  

	7.3	Voluntary prepayment 

  

	 	7.3.1	Any Borrower may, by giving not less than three Business Days prior written notice to the Agent, prepay subject to breakage costs, if any, the whole or any part of the Advances made to it under this Agreement (but if in
part in an aggregate minimum Original Sterling Amount, taking all prepayments made by all the Borrowers on the same day together, of £25,000,000). 

  

	 	7.3.2	Any voluntary prepayment under Clause 7.3.1 above will: 

  

	 	(A)	be applied against Revolving Facility Advances in such proportions as may be specified by the Parent in the notice of prepayment or, if not specified, against all Revolving Facility Advances pro rata (or, if no
Revolving Facility Advances are outstanding, against any Swingline Advances pro rata); 

  

	 	(B)	be applied against the relevant Advances of the relevant Banks pro rata; and 

  
 25 

	 	(C)	be accompanied by all amounts payable under Clause 23.2.3 (Other indemnities) in respect of that prepayment if not made on the Maturity Date of the relevant Revolving Facility Advance or Swingline Advance.

  

	7.4	Mandatory Prepayment by Borrowers 

  

	 	7.4.1	If any Borrower (other than the Parent) ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Parent, it shall forthwith prepay all Advances made to it together with all amounts payable by it under this Agreement, and thereupon cease to be
a Borrower. 

  

	 	7.4.2	If any person or group of persons acting in concert gains control of the Parent: 

  

	 	(A)	the Parent shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of such event; and 

  

	 	(B)	if the Majority Banks so require, the Agent shall, by not less than 10 Business Days’ written notice to the Parent, cancel the Total Commitments and declare all outstanding Advances, together with accrued interest,
and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents, to be immediately due and payable, whereupon the Total Commitments will be cancelled in full and all such outstanding amounts will become immediately due and payable. 

For the purpose of this Clause 7.4.2: 

“control” has the meaning given to it in section 450 of the Corporation Tax Act 2010; and 

“acting in concert” has the meaning given to it in the City Code on Takeovers and Mergers. 

 

	7.5	Changes to Borrowers 

  

	 	7.5.1	Any Borrower in respect of which no Advance is outstanding hereunder (including any other amounts outstanding in relation thereto) may, at the request of the Parent, cease to be a Borrower by entering into a
supplemental agreement to this Agreement in such form as the Agent may reasonably require which shall discharge that Borrower’s obligations hereunder. 

  

	 	7.5.2	Any Borrower (the “Existing Borrower”) may be released from its obligations under this Agreement as a Borrower, provided that another Borrower (the “Substitute Borrower”) assumes the
obligations in respect thereof of the Existing Borrower and provided further that: 

  

	 	(A)	any such substitution shall take effect on and from the later of the day upon which the Agent notifies the Parent in writing that it is satisfied with the compliance with the matters set out in paragraphs (C) and
(D) below and the date for substitution specified in the relevant notice under paragraph (B) below; 

  

	 	(B)	notice of the proposed substitution has been delivered by the Parent to the Agent not less than 14 days prior to the proposed substitution; 

 

	 	(C)	no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; and 

  

	 	(D)	the Substitute Borrower enters into a novation agreement with the Existing Borrower, the Parent and the Agent on behalf of the Banks in the form of Part III of Schedule 4 (Forms of Accession
Documents) together with such amendments as the Agent may reasonably require. 

 Each Bank authorises the Agent to sign
on its behalf any novation agreement entered into in accordance with this Clause 7.5.2. 
 For the avoidance of doubt, this Clause 7.5 shall
not operate to release the Guarantor from its obligations under this Agreement in its capacity as the Guarantor. 

  
 26 

	7.6	Right of cancellation in relation to a Defaulting Bank 

  

	 	7.6.1	If any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank, a Borrower may, at any time whilst the Bank continues to be a Defaulting Bank, give the Agent three Business Days’ notice of cancellation of each Available Commitment of that
Bank. 

  

	 	7.6.2	On the notice referred to in Clause 7.6.1 above becoming effective, each Available Commitment of the Defaulting Bank shall immediately be reduced to zero. 

 

	 	7.6.3	The Agent shall as soon as practicable after receipt of a notice referred to in Clause 7.6.1 above, notify all the Banks. 

  

	7.7	Right of prepayment and cancellation 

 If any Borrower is
required to pay or is notified by any Bank in writing that it will be required to pay any amount to a Bank under Clause 10 (Taxes) or Clause 12 (Increased Costs), or if circumstances exist such that a Borrower will be required
to pay any amount to a Bank under Clause 10 (Taxes), the Parent may, whilst the circumstances giving rise or which will give rise to the requirement continue, serve a notice of prepayment and cancellation on that Bank through the Agent. On
the date falling five Business Days after the date of service of the notice: 
  

	 	7.7.1	each Borrower shall prepay all outstanding Advances made to it by that Bank; and 

  

	 	7.7.2	the Bank’s Commitment (including its (and its Swingline Affiliates’) Swingline Commitments (if any)) shall be permanently cancelled on the date of service of the notice. 

 

	7.8	Miscellaneous provisions 

  

	 	7.8.1	Any notice of prepayment and/or cancellation under this Agreement is irrevocable once given. The Agent shall notify the Banks promptly of receipt of any such notice. 

 

	 	7.8.2	All prepayments under this Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid and any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of the prepayment (including, but not limited to, any
amounts payable under Clause 23.2.3 (Other indemnities) if the prepayment is not made on the Maturity Date of the relevant Revolving Facility Advance or Swingline Advance). 

 

	 	7.8.3	No prepayment or cancellation is permitted except in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement. 

  

	 	7.8.4	No amount prepaid under Clauses 7.4 (Mandatory Prepayment by Borrowers) or 7.7 (Right of prepayment and cancellation) may subsequently be reborrowed.
Subject to the terms of this Agreement, any amount prepaid under Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment) in respect of a Revolving Facility or a Swingline Facility may be reborrowed. No amount of the Total Commitments (including the
Swingline Total Commitments) cancelled under this Agreement may subsequently be reinstated. 

  

	8.	INTEREST 

  

	8.1	Interest rate for Revolving Facility Advances 

 The
rate of interest on each Revolving Facility Advance for its Term is the rate per annum determined by the Agent to be the aggregate of: 
  

	 	8.1.1	the applicable Margin; and 

  

	 	8.1.2	LIBOR (or, in the case of an Advance denominated in euro, EURIBOR). 

  

	8.2	Calculation of the Margin 

  
 27 

	 	8.2.1	Subject to the following provisions of this Clause 8.2, the Margin for the Term of a Revolving Facility Advance will be determined on the Rate Fixing Day for that Term by reference to the table below: 

 

			
	 Rating (S&P/Moody’s)
	 	 Facility Margin per annum

	 A/A2 or above
	 	0.250 per cent.
	 A-/A3
	 	0.275 per cent.
	 BBB+/Baa1
	 	0.350 per cent.
	 BBB/Baa2 or below
	 	0.500 per cent.

 where, for the purposes of this Clause: 

“Rating” means the corporate rating of the Parent assigned by S&P (currently known as the “Corporate
Credit Rating”) and/or Moody’s (currently known as the “Issuer Rating”) as at the Rate Fixing Day on which the Margin is being determined. 

For the avoidance of doubt, if there is a change to the Rating during the Term of a Revolving Facility Advance there shall be no adjustment to
the Margin for that Term until the next Rate Fixing Day for that Advance. 
  

	 	8.2.2	If Ratings are confirmed or assigned to the Parent by S&P and Moody’s that are not equivalent at any time, then the Margin will be the average of the Margins applicable to such credit ratings.

  

	 	8.2.3	If only one Rating Agency publishes a Rating for the Parent, the rating assigned by that Rating Agency shall be deemed also to be the rating assigned by the other Rating Agency. 

 

	 	8.2.4	If on the relevant Rate Fixing Day both Rating Agencies have ceased to publish a Rating for the Parent, the Margin for the relevant Advance shall be determined on the basis of a deemed Corporate Credit Rating of BBB and
a deemed Issuer Rating of Baa2 until the date on which a Rating Agency publishes a Rating for the Parent. 

  

	 	8.2.5	For so long as an Event of Default is continuing, the Margin for the relevant Advance shall be determined on the basis of a deemed Corporate Credit Rating of BBB and a deemed Issuer Rating of Baa2 (and any increase in
the Margin pursuant to this Clause 8.2.5 shall take effect immediately following the occurrence of the relevant Event of Default). 

  

	 	8.2.6	The Parent shall notify the Agent promptly of any publicly announced change in its Rating. 

  

	 	8.2.7	In calculating the Margin for any Advance under this Clause 8.2, no account shall be taken of any rating outlook or credit watch action assigned to any Rating by the relevant Rating Agency. 

 

	8.3	Interest rate on US$ Swingline Advances 

 The rate of
interest on each US$ Swingline Advance during its Term is the rate per annum determined by the US$ Swingline Agent to be the US$ Swingline Rate for each day during its Term. 
  

	8.4	Interest rate on Euro Swingline Advances 

 The rate of
interest on each Euro Swingline Advance during its Term is the rate per annum determined by the Euro Swingline Agent to be the Euro Swingline Rate for each day during its Term. 

  
 28 

	8.5	Due dates 

 Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, accrued interest on
each Advance is payable by the relevant Borrower on its Maturity Date, and also, in the case of any Advance with a Term longer than six months, at six monthly intervals after its Utilisation Date for so long as the Term is outstanding. 

 

	8.6	Default interest 

  

	 	8.6.1	If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under this Agreement (an “overdue amount”), it shall forthwith on demand by the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent pay
interest on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment, both before and after judgment, at a rate (the “default rate”) determined by the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent to be one
per cent. per annum above the higher of: 

  

	 	(A)	the rate on the overdue amount under Clause 8.1 (Interest rate for Revolving Facility Advances), Clause 8.3 (Interest rate on US$ Swingline
Advances) or Clause 8.4 (Interest rate on Euro Swingline Advances) immediately before the due date (in the case of principal); and 

 

	 	(B)	the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted an Advance at the highest Margin applicable at the time in the
currency of the overdue amount for such successive Terms of such duration as the Agent may determine (each a “Designated Term”). 

  

	 	8.6.2	The default rate will be determined on each Business Day or the first day of, or two Business Days before the first day of, the relevant Designated Term, as appropriate. 

 

	 	8.6.3	If the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent determines that deposits in the currency of the overdue amount are not at the relevant time being made available by the Reference Banks to leading banks
in the London interbank market, the default rate will be determined by reference to the cost of funds to the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent from whatever sources it reasonably selects after consultation with the Reference
Banks. 

  

	 	8.6.4	Default interest will be compounded at three-month intervals. 

  

	 	8.6.5	The Agent shall notify the Parent of the duration of each Designated Term. 

  

	8.7	Notification of rates of interest 

 The Agent or, as the case
may be, the relevant Swingline Agent will promptly notify each relevant Party of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 
  

	8.8	Notification 

 The Agent shall notify the Banks and the Borrower of Optional Currency
amounts (and the applicable Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange) promptly after they are ascertained. 
  

	9.	PAYMENTS 

  

	9.1	Place of Payment 

 All payments by an Obligor or a Bank under this
Agreement shall be made to the Agent or, if the payment relates to a Swingline Facility, the relevant Swingline Agent, in each case to its account at such office or bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency concerned (or,
in the case of a payment in euro, in the financial centre of the country selected by the Agent) as it may notify to the Obligor or Bank for this purpose. 
  

	9.2	Funds 

 Payments under this Agreement to an Administrative Party shall be made for value
on the 

  
 29 

 
due date at such times and in such funds as such Administrative Party may specify to the Party concerned as being customary at the time for the settlement of transactions in the relevant currency
in the place for payment. 
  

	9.3	Distribution 

  

	 	9.3.1	Each payment received by an Administrative Party under this Agreement for another Party shall, subject to Clauses 9.3.2 and 9.3.3 below, be made available by such Administrative Party to that Party by payment (on the
date and in the currency and funds of receipt) to its account with such bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant currency (or, in the case of a payment in euro, to its account in the financial centre of a country
selected by it) as it may notify to the relevant Administrative Party for this purpose by not less than five Business Days’ prior notice. 

  

	 	9.3.2	An Administrative Party may apply any amount received by it for an Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from an Obligor under this Agreement or in or
towards the purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied. 

  

	 	9.3.3	Where a sum is to be paid under this Agreement to an Administrative Party for the account of another Party, such Administrative Party is not obliged to pay that sum to that Party until it has established that it has
actually received that sum. Such Administrative Party may, but is not obliged to, assume that the sum has been paid to it in accordance with this Agreement and, in reliance on that assumption, make available to that Party a corresponding amount. If
the sum has not been made available but such Administrative Party has paid a corresponding amount to another Party, that Party shall forthwith on demand refund the corresponding amount to such Administrative Party together with interest on that
amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt, calculated at a rate reasonably determined by such Administrative Party to reflect its cost of funds. 

  

	9.4	Currency 

  

	 	9.4.1	A repayment or prepayment of an Advance is payable in the currency in which the Advance is denominated. 

  

	 	9.4.2	Interest is payable in the currency in which the relevant amount in respect of which it is payable is denominated. 

  

	 	9.4.3	Amounts payable in respect of costs, expenses, taxes and the like are payable in the currency in which they are incurred. 

  

	 	9.4.4	Any other amount payable under this Agreement is, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, payable in Sterling. 

  

	9.5	Set-off and counterclaim 

 All
payments made by an Obligor under this Agreement shall be made without set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	9.6	Non-Business Days 

  

	 	9.6.1	If a payment under this Agreement is due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date for that payment shall instead be the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business
Day (if there is not). 

  

	 	9.6.2	During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal at the rate payable on the original due date. 

 

	9.7	Impaired Agent 

  

	 	9.7.1	 If, at any time, an Administrative Party becomes an Impaired Agent and a Borrower or a Bank is required to make a
payment under the Finance Documents 

  
 30 

	 	
to that Administrative Party in accordance with Clause 9.1 (Place of Payment), that Borrower or Bank may, subject to Clause 9.7.2 below, instead either pay that amount:

  

	 	(A)	direct to the required recipient; or 

  

	 	(B)	to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the relevant Borrower or the Bank making the payment and designated
as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents. In each case, such payments must be made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents. 

 

	 	9.7.2	If a Bank has become and continues to be a Defaulting Bank and a payment is required to be made by a Borrower or a Bank in accordance with Clause 9.7.1, that Obligor or Bank will make such payment in accordance with
Clause 9.7.1(B). 

  

	 	9.7.3	A Party which is required to make a payment in accordance with Clause 9.7.1 shall notify the required recipient of the account into which the payment is made. 

 

	 	9.7.4	All interest accrued on the amounts standing to the credit of a trust account shall be for the benefit of the beneficiaries of that trust account pro rata to their respective entitlements. 

 

	 	9.7.5	A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 9.7 shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with respect to the amounts
standing to the credit of the trust account. 

  

	 	9.7.6	Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Party to an Impaired Agent in accordance with Clause 19.14 (Resignation of Agents), each Party which has made a payment to a trust account
in accordance with this Clause 9.7 shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Administrative Party for distribution in accordance
with Clause 9.3 (Distribution). 

  

	9.8	Partial payments 

  

	 	9.8.1	If an Administrative Party receives a payment insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under this Agreement, such Administrative Party shall apply that payment towards the obligations
of the Obligors under this Agreement in the following order: 

  

	 	(A)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid costs, fees and expenses of the Administrative Parties under this Agreement; 

  

	 	(B)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued fees due but unpaid under Clause 20 (Fees); 

  

	 	(C)	thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any interest due but unpaid under this Agreement;

	 	9.9.1	Where a sum is to be paid to an Administrative Party under the Finance Documents for another Party, that Administrative Party is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party (or to enter into or perform any related
exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum. 

  

	 	9.9.2	If an Administrative Party pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that that Administrative Party 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 Administrative Party shall on demand refund the same to the Administrative Party together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Administrative Party, calculated
by the Administrative Party to reflect its costs of funds. 

  

	9.10	Disruption to Payment Systems etc. 

 If either the Agent
determines (in its discretion) that a Disruption Event has occurred or the Agent is notified by the Parent that a Disruption Event has occurred:

circumstances; 

  

	 	9.10.2	the Agent may consult with the Finance Parties in relation to any changes mentioned in Clause 9.10.1 but shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances;

  

	 	9.10.3	any such changes agreed upon by the Agent and the Parent shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties as an amendment to (or, as the case may be,
waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 25 (Amendments and Waivers); 

  

	 	9.10.4	the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 9.10 provided that any decision

	 	9.10.5	the Agent shall notify the Finance Parties of all changes agreed pursuant to Clause 9.10.4 above. 

  

	10.	TAXES 

  

	10.1	Gross-up 

 All payments by an Obligor under the
Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of any taxes, except to the extent that the Obligor is required by law to make payment subject to any taxes or such deduction is a FATCA Deduction. Subject to
Clauses 10.3 (Qualifying Banks), if any tax or amounts in respect of tax (other than a FATCA Deduction) must be deducted from any amounts payable or paid by an Obligor, or paid or payable by the Agent or a Swingline Agent (in their
capacity as agent) (as the case may be) to a Finance Party under the Finance Documents, the Obligor shall pay such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the relevant Finance Party receives a net amount equal to the full amount which
it would have received had payment not been made subject to tax. 
  

	10.2	Tax receipts 

 All taxes required by law to be deducted or withheld by an Obligor
from any amounts paid or payable under the Finance Documents shall be paid by the relevant Obligor when due 

  
 32 

 
and the Obligor shall, within 15 days of the payment being made, deliver to the Agent for the relevant Bank evidence satisfactory to that Bank (including any relevant tax receipts) that the
payment has been duly remitted to the appropriate authority. 
  

	10.3	Qualifying Banks 

 If: 

 

	 	10.3.1	on the Signing Date, any Bank which is a Party on the Signing Date is not a Qualifying Bank; or 

  

	 	10.3.2	after the Signing Date, a Bank ceases to be a Qualifying Bank, other than as a result of the introduction, suspension, withdrawal or cancellation of, or change in, or change in the official interpretation,
administration or official application of, any law, regulation having the force of law, tax treaty or any published practice or published concession of Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs or any other relevant taxing or fiscal authority in
any jurisdiction with which the relevant Bank has a connection, occurring after the Signing Date or, if later, the date on which that Bank becomes a Party; or 

  

	 	10.3.3	on the date of any assignment, transfer or novation under Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) a New Bank (as such term is defined in that Clause) is not a Qualifying Bank, 

then no UK Resident Borrower shall be liable to pay to that Bank under Clause 10.1 (Gross-up)
any amount in respect of taxes levied or imposed by the UK or any taxing authority of or in the UK in excess of the amount (if any) it would have been obliged to pay if that Bank had been, or had not ceased to be, a Qualifying Bank. 

 

	10.4	Tax Credit 

  

	 	10.4.1	If an Obligor makes a payment pursuant to Clause 10.1 (Gross-up) for the account of any Finance Party and such Finance Party has received or been granted a credit against,
or relief or remission or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it (a “Tax Credit”) which is attributable to that payment or the corresponding payment under the Finance Document such Finance 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, pay to the Obligor concerned such amount as the Finance Party shall have reasonably determined to be attributable to such payments and which will
leave the Finance Party (after such payment) in no better or worse position than it would have been if the Obligor concerned had not been required to make any deduction or withholding. 

 

	 	10.4.2	Nothing in this Clause 10.4 shall interfere with the right of a Finance Party to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit and without limiting the foregoing no Finance Party shall be under any obligation
to claim a Tax Credit or to claim a Tax Credit in priority to any other claims, relief, credit or deduction available to it. No Finance Party shall be obliged to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect
thereof. Unless it would in a Bank’s reasonable judgement be prejudicial to its interests, such Bank shall seek any Tax Credit available to it consequent upon any deductions or withholdings for tax being made from any payment to it under Clause
10.1 (Gross-up). 

  

	10.5	Borrower DTTP Filing 

  

	 	10.5.1	If a Bank holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme and wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, it shall, or the Agent shall (if notified by the Bank) on its behalf, notify the Parent in
accordance with the provisions of Clause 32 (Notices) that the relevant Bank wishes the scheme to apply and provide that Bank’s scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence within five Business Days of becoming a Party to
this Agreement. 

  
 33 

	 	10.5.2	Each Bank which wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement shall promptly provide such further information (directly to an Obligor or via the Agent) as an Obligor may request in order to enable
the Obligor to make a Borrower DTTP Filing. 

  

	 	10.5.3	If a Borrower had received authority from HM Revenue & Customs to make payments to that Lender without deduction for or on account of tax as a result of a Borrower DTTP Filing, but as a result of (i) a
withdrawal or expiry of that authority; or (ii) a withdrawal or cessation of the DTTP passport scheme due to any change in law or change in practice of HM Revenue & Customs, it is no longer possible for that Borrower to make payments
to the Bank without deduction for or on account of tax by virtue of that authority, and the Borrower has notified that Bank in writing, that Bank and the Borrower shall co-operate in completing any additional
procedural formalities necessary for that Borrower to obtain authorisation to make payment without deduction for or on account of tax. 

  

	10.6	FATCA 

  

	 	10.6.1	Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction 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. 

  

	 	10.6.2	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 payment and, in
addition, shall notify the Parent, the Agent and the other Finance Parties. 

  

	 	10.6.3	Subject to Clause 10.6.4 below, each Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party, confirm to that other Party whether it is entitled to receive payments under the Finance Documents
free from any deduction or withholding required by FATCA (hereafter referred to as “FATCA Exempt”) or is not so entitled, and shall 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 and is necessary for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA (provided that the necessity of such request is reasonably evidenced to the satisfaction of the Party to whom the request is made (acting reasonably)). If a
Party confirms to another Party pursuant to this Clause that it is FATCA Exempt and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not, or has ceased to be FATCA Exempt, that Party shall promptly notify that other Party. 

 

	 	10.6.4	Clause 10.6.3 above shall not oblige a 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.

  

	 	10.6.5	If a Finance Party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with Clause 10.6.3 above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 10.6.4 above
applies), then: 

  

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

 

	 	(B)	if that Finance Party failed to confirm its applicable “passthru payment percentage” then such Finance 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 Finance Party provides
the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 

  
 34 

	11.	MARKET DISRUPTION 

  

	11.1	Market disturbance 

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, if
and each time that prior to or on a Utilisation Date relative to an Advance to be made: 
  

	 	11.1.1	only one or no Reference Bank supplies a rate for the purposes of determining LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be); or 

  

	 	11.1.2	the Agent is notified by Banks whose Commitments represent 25 per cent or more of the Total Commitments that deposits in the currency of that Advance are not in the ordinary course of business available in the
London Interbank Market for a period equal to the Term concerned in amounts sufficient to fund their participations in that Advance; or 

  

	 	11.1.3	the Agent is notified by Banks whose Commitments represent 25 per cent or more of the Total Commitments that by reason of circumstances affecting the London Interbank Market generally, adequate and fair means do
not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be) applicable to such Advance during its Term or LIBOR or EURIBOR (as the case may be) does not adequately represent the cost of funding to the Banks, 

the Agent shall promptly give written notice of such circumstance (in respect of Clause 11.1.1) or notification to the Parent and to each of
the Banks. 
  

	11.2	Alternative Rates 

 If the Agent gives a notice under Clause 11.1 (Market
disturbance): 
  

	 	11.2.1	the Parent and the Banks may (through the Agent) agree that (in the case of Revolving Facility Advances) the Advances concerned shall not be borrowed; or 

 

	 	11.2.2	in the absence of such agreement: 

  

	 	(A)	the Term of the Advances concerned shall be one month; 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of Clause 11.1.2, the Advance shall be denominated in Sterling in an amount equal to the Original Sterling Amount of the Advance concerned; and 

 

	 	(C)	during the Term of each Advance the rate of interest applicable to such Advance shall be the applicable Margin plus the rate per annum notified by each Bank concerned to the Agent before the last day of such Term to be
that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Bank of funding such Advances from whatever sources it may reasonably select. 

  

	11.3	Non-availability of currency 

 If
any Bank notifies the Agent before 10.00 a.m. (London time) on the Business Day prior to the proposed Utilisation Date of an Advance to be denominated in an Optional Currency that it is unable for any reason to fund its participation in such Advance
in the Optional Currency concerned, the Agent shall notify the Parent and such Bank shall make its participation in the Advance available in Sterling for the period in question. 

 

	11.4	Change in circumstances 

 If before 9.00 a.m. (London time) on the proposed
Utilisation Date in respect of an Advance which is to be denominated in an Optional Currency, there occurs any change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions, currency availability, currency exchange rates or
exchange controls, which in the opinion of the Agent renders the making of the Advance in such currency impracticable: 

  
 35 

	 	11.4.1	the Agent shall give notice to each of the Banks and the Parent to that effect as soon as practicable but in any event before 11.00 a.m. (London time) on the proposed Utilisation Date; 

 

	 	11.4.2	unless the Parent and the Banks agree otherwise, the Advance shall be made in Sterling and the Rate Fixing Date for the Term of the Advance shall be the Utilisation Date; and 

 

	 	11.4.3	the relevant Borrower shall pay to the Agent on behalf of the Bank any amount claimed in accordance with Clause 23.2 (Other indemnities). 

 

	11.5	Change in currency 

  

	 	11.5.1	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: 

 

	 	(A)	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 Agent; and 

  

	 	(B)	any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or
down by the Agent acting reasonably. 

  

	 	11.5.2	If any change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will be amended to the extent the Agent specifies to be necessary to reflect the change in the currency and to put the Finance Parties in the same
position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred. 

  

	12.	INCREASED COSTS 

  

	12.1	Increased costs 

  

	 	12.1.1	Subject to Clause 12.3 (Exceptions), the Parent shall forthwith on demand by a Finance Party pay that Finance Party the amount of any increased cost incurred by it or any of its holding companies as a result of
any change in or change in the interpretation of or introduction of any law or regulation (including any relating to taxation or reserve asset, special deposit, cash ratio, liquidity or capital adequacy requirements or any other form of banking or
monetary control introduced by any central bank or other competent authority), or reduce or repay that Finance Party’s commitments or outstandings without penalty. 

 

	 	12.1.2	In this Agreement “increased cost” means: 

  

	 	(A)	an additional cost incurred by a Finance Party or any of its holding companies as a result of it performing, maintaining or funding its obligations under, this Agreement; or

made or to be made by it under this Agreement as is attributable to it making, funding or maintaining its Advances; or 

  

	 	(C)	a reduction in any amount payable to a Finance Party or the effective return to a Finance Party under this Agreement or on its capital (or the capital of any of its holding companies); or 

 

	 	(D)	the amount of any payment made by a Finance Party, or the amount of interest or other return foregone by a Finance Party, calculated by reference to any amount received or receivable by a Finance Party from any other
Party under this Agreement. 

  
 36 

	12.2	Increased costs claim 

  

	 	12.2.1	A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 12.1 (Increased costs) shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Parent.

  

	 	12.2.2	Each Finance Party shall, as soon as practicable after a demand by the Agent or the Parent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its increased costs, detailing the calculation of the claim and confirming that
it has considered whether there are any reasonable steps available to it to mitigate the circumstances of such claim in accordance with Clause 13.2 (Mitigation) and there are no such steps available to it. 

 

	12.3	Exceptions 

 Clause 12.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to any increased

Party or any of its holding companies) or any branch profit tax with respect to such division or branch; 

  

	 	12.3.3	attributable to a Finance Party or its Affiliate wilfully failing to comply with any law or regulation; or 

  

	 	12.3.4	attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party. 

  

	13.	ILLEGALITY AND MITIGATION 

  

	13.1	Illegality 

 If it becomes unlawful in any jurisdiction for a Bank to give effect to any
of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund or maintain any Advance, then the Bank may notify the Parent through the Agent accordingly and thereupon: 
  

	 	13.1.1	each Borrower shall, upon request from that Bank within the period allowed or if no period is allowed, forthwith, repay any Advances made to it by that Bank together with all other amounts payable by it to that Bank
under this Agreement; and 

  

	 	13.1.2	the Bank’s Commitment shall be cancelled. 

  

	13.2	Mitigation 

 Notwithstanding the provisions of Clauses 10 (Taxes), 12
(Increased Costs) and 13.1 (Illegality), if in relation to a Finance Party circumstances arise which would result in: 
  

	 	13.2.1	any deduction, withholding or payment of the nature referred to in Clause 10 (Taxes); or 

  

	 	13.2.2	any increased cost of the nature referred to in Clause 12 (Increased Costs); or 

  

	 	13.2.3	a notification pursuant to Clause 13.1 (Illegality), 

 then without in any way limiting,
reducing or otherwise qualifying the rights of such Finance Party, such Finance Party shall promptly upon becoming aware of the same notify the Agent thereof (whereupon the Agent shall promptly notify the Parent) and such Finance Party shall use
reasonable endeavours to transfer its participation in the Facility and its rights hereunder and under the Finance Documents to another financial institution or Facility Office not affected by the circumstances having the results set out in Clauses
13.2.1 to 13.2.3 above and shall otherwise take such reasonable steps as may be open to it to mitigate the effects of such circumstances provided that such Finance Party shall not 

  
 37 

 
be under any obligation to take any such action if, in its reasonable opinion, to do so would or would be likely to have a material adverse effect upon its business, operations or financial
condition or would involve it in any unlawful activity or any activity that is contrary to its policies or any request, guidance or directive of any competent authority (whether or not having the force of law) or (unless indemnified to its
satisfaction) would involve it in any significant expense or tax disadvantage. 
  

	14.	GUARANTEE 

  

	14.1	Guarantee 

 The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally: 

 

	 	14.1.1	as principal obligor, guarantees to each Finance Party prompt performance by each Borrower of all its obligations under the Finance Documents; 

 

	 	14.1.2	undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever a Borrower does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the Guarantor shall forthwith on demand by the Agent pay that amount as if
the Guarantor instead of the relevant Borrower were expressed to be the principal obligor; and 

  

	 	14.1.3	indemnifies each Finance Party on demand against any loss or liability suffered by it if any obligation guaranteed by the Guarantor is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal. 

 

	14.2	Continuing guarantee 

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

	14.3	Reinstatement 

  

	 	14.3.1	Where any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Borrower or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made in whole or in part or any arrangement is made on the faith
of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise without limitation, the liability of the Guarantor under this Clause 14 shall continue as if the discharge or arrangement had
not occurred (but only to the extent that such payment, security or other disposition is avoided or restored). 

  

	 	14.3.2	Each Finance Party may concede or compromise any claim that any payment, security or other disposition is liable to avoidance or restoration. 

 

	14.4	Waiver of defences 

 The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause 14
will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 14 or prejudice or diminish those obligations in whole or in part, including,
without limitation, (whether or not known to it or any Finance Party): 
  

	 	14.4.1	any time or waiver granted to, or composition with, any Borrower or other person; 

  

	 	14.4.2	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, any 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;

  

	 	14.4.3	any incapacity or lack of powers, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of a Borrower or any other person; 

  
 38 

	 	14.4.4	any variation (however fundamental) or replacement of a Finance Document or any other document or security so that references to that Finance Document in this Clause 14 shall include each variation or replacement;

  

	 	14.4.5	any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security, to the intent that the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 shall
remain in full force and its guarantee be construed accordingly, as if there were no unenforceability, illegality or invalidity; and 

  

	 	14.4.6	any postponement, discharge, reduction, non-provability or other similar circumstance affecting any obligation of any Borrower under a Finance Document resulting from any
insolvency, liquidation or dissolution proceedings or from any law, regulation or order so that each such obligation shall for the purposes of the Guarantor’s obligations under this Clause 14 be construed as if there were no such circumstance.

  

	14.5	Immediate recourse 

 The Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring
any Finance 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 before claiming from the Guarantor under this Clause 14. This waiver applies irrespective of any
law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary. 
  

	14.6	Appropriations 

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

	 	14.6.1	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance 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 Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and 

  

	 	14.6.2	hold in an interest bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Guarantor or on account of the Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 14. 

 

	14.7	Non-competition 

 Until all amounts which may be
or become payable by the Borrowers under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been paid in full, the Guarantor shall not, after a claim has been made or by virtue of any payment or performance by it under this Clause 14: 

 

	 	14.7.1	be subrogated to any rights, security or moneys held, received or receivable by any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) or be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity in respect of any
payment made or moneys received on account of the Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 14; 

  

	 	14.7.2	claim, rank, prove or vote as a creditor of any Borrower or its estate in competition with any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf); or 

 

	 	14.7.3	receive, claim or have the benefit of any payment, distribution or security from or on account of any Borrower, or exercise any right of set-off as against any Borrower.

 The Guarantor shall hold in trust for and forthwith pay or transfer to the Agent for the Finance Parties any payment or
distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Clause 14.7. 
  

	14.8	Additional security 

  
 39

	15.5	Borrowing limits 

 Borrowings under this Agreement up to and including the maximum
amount available under this Agreement will not when borrowed cause any limit on borrowings or, as the case may be, on the giving of guarantees (whether imposed by statute, regulation, agreement or otherwise), or on the powers of its board of
directors, applicable to it to be exceeded. 
  

	15.6	Authorisations

	19.6	Default 

  

	 	19.6.1	No Administrative Party is obliged to monitor or enquire as to whether or not a Default has occurred. No Administrative Party will be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default. However, if an

	 	19.6.2	Any Administrative Party may require the receipt of security satisfactory to it from the Banks whether by way of payment in advance or otherwise, against any liability or loss which it will or may incur in taking any
proceedings or action arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document before it commences these proceedings or takes that action. 

  

	19.7	Exoneration 

  

	 	19.7.1	Without limiting Clause 19.7.2 below, no Administrative Party will be liable to any other Party for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless directly caused by its
negligence or wilful misconduct.

(including negligence or wilful misconduct) by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document. 

  
 48 

	 	19.7.3	No Administrative Party will be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of:

 including
(in each case and without limitation) such damages, costs, losses, diminution in value or liability arising as a result of: nationalisation, expropriation or other governmental actions; any regulation, currency restriction, devaluation or
fluctuation; market conditions affecting the execution or settlement of transactions or the value of assets (including any Disruption Event); breakdown, failure or malfunction of any third party transport, telecommunications, computer services or
systems; natural disasters or acts of God; war, terrorism, insurrection or revolution; or strikes or industrial action. 
  

	 	19.7.4	Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting any Administrative Party’s liability, any liability of an Administrative Party arising under or in connection with any Finance
Document shall be limited to the amount of actual loss suffered (as determined by reference to the date of default of that Administrative Party or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any
special conditions or circumstances known to that Administrative Party at any time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall any Administrative Party 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 that Administrative Party has been advised of the possibility of such loss or damages. 

 

	19.8	Reliance 

 Each Administrative Party may: 

 

	 	19.8.1	rely on any notice or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by, or with the authority of, the proper person; 

 

	 	19.8.2	rely on any statement made by a director or employee of any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify; and 

 

	 	19.8.3	engage, pay for and rely on legal or other professional advisers selected by it (including those in that Administrative Party’s employment and those representing a Party other than that Administrative Party).

  

	19.9	Credit approval and appraisal 

 Without affecting the responsibility
of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Bank confirms that it: 
  

	 	19.9.1	has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied
exclusively on any information provided to it by any Administrative Party in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	19.9.2	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

  

	19.10	Information 

  
 49 

	 	19.10.1	Each Administrative Party shall promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to that Administrative Party by a Party for that person. 

 

	 	19.10.2	The Agent shall promptly supply a Bank with a copy of each document received by the Agent under Clauses 4 (Conditions Precedent) or 26.5 (Additional Borrowers) upon the request and at the
expense of that Bank. 

  

	 	19.10.3	Except where this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, no Administrative Party is obliged to review or check the accuracy or completeness of any document it forwards to another Party. 

 

	 	19.10.4	Except as provided above, no Administrative Party has any duty: 

  

	 	(A)	either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Bank with any credit or other information concerning the financial condition or affairs of any Obligor or any related entity of any Obligor whether coming into
its possession or that of any of its related entities before, on or after the date of this Agreement; or 

  

	 	(B)	unless specifically requested to do so by a Bank in accordance with this Agreement, to request any certificates or other documents from any Obligor. 

 

	 	19.10.5	The Agent may disclose the identity of a Defaulting Bank to the other Finance Parties and the Parent and shall disclose the same upon the written request of the Parent, a Borrower or the Majority Banks.

  

	19.11	The Administrative Parties individually 

  

	 	19.11.1	If it is also a Bank, each Administrative Party has the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Bank and may exercise those rights and powers as though it were not an Administrative Party.

  

	 	19.11.2	Each Administrative Party may: 

  

	 	(A)	carry on any business with an Obligor or its related entities; 

  

	 	(B)	act as agent or trustee for, or in relation to any financing involving, an Obligor or its related entities; and 

  

	 	(C)	retain any profits or remuneration in connection with its activities under this Agreement or in relation to any of the foregoing. 

  

	19.12	Indemnities 

  

	 	19.12.1	Without limiting the liability of any Obligor under the Finance Documents, each Bank shall forthwith on demand indemnify each Administrative Party for its proportion of any cost, liability or loss incurred by that
Administrative Party in any way relating to or arising out of its acting as an Administrative Party, except to the extent that the liability or loss arises directly from that Administrative Party’s negligence or wilful misconduct.

  

	 	19.12.2	A Bank’s proportion of the liability or loss set out in Clause 19.12.1 above is the proportion which the Original Sterling Amount of its Advance(s) bears to the Original Sterling Amount of all Advances outstanding
on the date of the demand. If, however, no Advances are outstanding on the date of demand, then the proportion will be the proportion which its Commitment bears to the Total Commitments at the date of demand or, if the Total Commitments have been
cancelled, bore to the Total Commitments immediately before being cancelled. 

  

	 	19.12.3	The Parent shall forthwith on demand reimburse each Bank for any payment made by it under Clause 19.12.1 above except to the extent it arises out of the Bank’s negligence or default. 

 

	19.13	Compliance 

  
 50 

	 	19.13.1	An Administrative Party may refrain from doing anything which might, in its opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its
opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation of any jurisdiction. 

  

	 	19.13.2	Without limiting Clause 19.13.1 above, an Administrative Party need not disclose any information relating to any Obligor or any of its related entities if the disclosure might, in the opinion of that Administrative
Party constitute a breach of any law or regulation or any duty of secrecy or confidentiality or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person. 

  

	19.14	Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent 

If any Party owes an amount to the Agent under the Finance Documents the Agent may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not
exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which the Agent would otherwise be obliged to make under the Finance Documents and apply the amount deducted in or towards satisfaction of the amount owed. For the purposes of the Finance
Documents that Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted. 
  

	19.15	Money held as banker 

 The Agent shall be entitled to deal with
money paid to it by any person for the purposes of this Agreement in the same manner as other money paid to a banker by its customers except that it shall not be liable to account to any person for any interest or other amounts in respect of the
money. 
  

	19.16	Resignation of Agents 

  

	 	19.16.1	Notwithstanding its irrevocable appointment an Administrative Party may resign by giving notice to the Banks and the Parent, in which case the Parent may (following consultation with the Banks, or the relevant Swingline
Banks, as the case may be) forthwith appoint a successor Administrative Party (which shall be a Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank) or, failing that, the retiring Administrative Party shall forthwith appoint its successor or, failing that, the Majority
Banks shall appoint the successor Administrative Party. 

  

	 	19.16.2	The resignation of the retiring Administrative Party and the appointment of any successor Administrative Party will both become effective only upon the successor Administrative Party notifying all the Parties that it
accepts the appointment. On giving the notification and receiving such approval, the successor Administrative Party will succeed to the position of the retiring Administrative Party and the term “Agent”, “US$ Swingline Agent” or
“Euro Swingline Agent” will mean the successor Agent, successor US$ Swingline Agent or successor Euro Swingline Agent. 

  

	 	19.16.3	The retiring Administrative Party shall, at its own cost, make available to its successor such documents and records and provide such assistance as the relevant successor Administrative Party may reasonably request for
the purposes of performing its functions as the Agent or the relevant Swingline Agent under this Agreement. 

  

	 	19.16.4	Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause 19 shall continue to benefit the relevant retiring Administrative Party in respect of any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with the Finance
Documents while it was the Agent or, as the case may be, a Swingline Agent, and, subject to Clause 19.16.3 above, it shall have no further obligation under any Finance Document. 

 

	 	19.16.5	Notwithstanding the irrevocable appointment of the Agent and the Swingline Agents, after consultation with the Parent, the Majority Banks may, by notice to the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent,
require it to resign in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above. In this event, the Agent or, as the case may be, the relevant Swingline Agent shall resign in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above. 

  
 51 

	 	19.16.6	An Administrative Party shall resign in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to that Administrative Party
under the Finance Documents: 

  

	 	(A)	that Administrative Party fails to respond to a request under Clause 10.5 (FATCA) and an Obligor or a Bank reasonably believes that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt
(as defined in Clause 10.6 (FATCA)) on or after that FATCA Application Date; 

  

	 	(B)	the information supplied by that Administrative Party pursuant to Clause 10.5 (FATCA) indicates that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt on or after that FATCA
Application Date; or 

  

	 	(C)	that Administrative Party notifies an Obligor and the Bank that that Administrative Party will not be (or will have ceased to be) FATCA Exempt on or after that FATCA Application Date, 

and (in each case) an Obligor or a Bank reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required
if that Administrative Party were FATCA Exempt, and the Obligor or a Bank, by notice to that Administrative Party, requires it to resign. 
  

	 	19.16.7	If an Administrative Party resigns pursuant to Clause 19.16.6 above: 

  

	 	(A)	its successor shall be appointed in accordance with Clause 19.16.1 above; and 

  

	 	(B)	such resignation shall only become effective when the successor Administrative Party notifies all the Parties that it accepts such appointment. 

 

	19.17	Replacement of the Agent 

  

	 	19.17.1	After consultation with the Parent, the Majority Banks may, by giving 30 days’ written notice to the relevant Administrative Party (or, at any time the relevant Administrative Party is an Impaired Agent, by giving
any shorter notice determined by the Majority Banks) replace that Administrative Party by appointing a successor Administrative Party. 

  

	 	19.17.2	The retiring Administrative Party shall (at its own cost if it is an Impaired Agent and otherwise at the expense of the Banks) make available to the successor Administrative Party such documents and records and provide
such assistance as the successor Administrative Party may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as agent under the Finance Documents. 

  

	 	19.17.3	The appointment of the successor Administrative Party shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Banks to the retiring Administrative Party. As from this date, the retiring Administrative
Party shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this Clause 19 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Administrative Party shall cease to accrue from
(and shall be payable on) that date). 

  

	 	19.17.4	Any successor Administrative Party 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. 

 

	19.18	Banks 

 Each Administrative Party may treat each Bank as a Bank, entitled to payments
under this Agreement and as acting through its Facility Office(s) until it has received notice from the Bank to the contrary by not less than five Business Days prior to the relevant payment. 

  
 52 

	19.19	Regulatory Position 

 The Agent is authorised by the Prudential Regulation
Authority and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Agent to carry on an activity of the kind specified by any provision of Part II (other than article 5
(accepting deposits)) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Regulated Activities) Order 2001 or to lend money to any Borrower in its capacity as Agent. 
  

	19.20	Chinese Wall 

 In acting as an Administrative Party, the agency and syndications
division of each Administrative Party shall be treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired at any time by an Administrative Party otherwise than in the capacity of an Administrative Party through
its agency and syndications division (whether as financial advisor to any member of the Group or otherwise) may be treated as confidential by that Administrative Party and shall not be deemed to be information possessed by that Administrative Party
in their capacity as such. Each Finance Party acknowledges that each Administrative Party may, now or in the future, be in possession of, or provided with, information relating to the Obligors which has not or will not be provided to the other
Finance Parties. Each Finance Party agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement no Administrative Party will be under any obligation to provide, or under any liability for failure to provide, any such information.

	 	20.1.3	No commitment fee is payable to the Agent (for the account of a Bank) on any Available Commitment of a Bank on any day on which such Bank is a Bank in relation to which (i) any of the events or circumstances
referred to in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Bank” has occurred and (ii) in so far as such event or circumstance relates to paragraph (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Bank”, a
notice of cancellation has been despatched by the Parent to the Agent under Clause 7.6 (Right of cancellation in relation to a Defaulting Bank) (such Bank being a
“Disenfranchised Bank”). 

  

	20.2	Utilisation Fee 

  

	 	20.2.1	On any day on which the aggregate Original Sterling Amount of all outstanding Advances is less than or equal to one third of the Total Commitments on that day, the Parent shall, on behalf of the Borrowers, pay to the
Agent for distribution to each Bank a utilisation fee at the rate of 0.075 per cent. per annum on the Original Sterling Amount of each Bank’s share of the Advances outstanding on that day. 

  
 53 

	 	20.2.2	On any day on which the aggregate Original Sterling Amount of all outstanding Advances exceeds one third but is less than or equal to two thirds of the Total Commitments on that day, the Parent shall, on behalf of the

	 	20.2.3	On any day on which the aggregate Original Sterling Amount of all outstanding Advances exceeds two thirds of the Total Commitments on that day, the Parent shall, on behalf of the Borrowers, pay to the Agent for
distribution to each Bank a utilisation fee at the rate of 0.300 per cent. per annum on the Original Sterling Amount of each Bank’s share of the Advances outstanding on that day. 

 

	 	20.2.4	Utilisation fees (if any) are calculated on a daily basis and are payable quarterly in arrears, with the first payment (if any) due three months after the date of this Agreement for the period from the date of this
Agreement. Any accrued utilisation fee unpaid at the time the Commitments are repaid and cancelled in full will be paid on the date of such repayment and cancellation. 

 

	20.3	Administrative Parties fees 

  

	 	20.3.1	The Parent shall, on behalf of the Borrowers, pay to the Administrative Parties for their own account agency fees in the amounts and on the dates agreed in the relevant Fee Letter.

 The Parent shall, on behalf
of the Borrowers, pay to the Banks an up-front fee in the amounts and on the date agreed in the relevant Fee Letter. 
  

	20.5	VAT

	21.	EXPENSES 

  

	21.1	Initial and special costs 

 The Parent shall forthwith on demand pay
the Administrative Parties the amount of all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including but not limited to legal fees) reasonably incurred by any of them in connection

 The Parent shall pay and forthwith on demand indemnify each Finance

	23.	INDEMNITIES 

  

	23.1	Currency indemnity 

  

	 	23.1.1	If a Finance Party receives an amount in respect of an Obligor’s liability under the Finance Documents or if that liability is converted into a claim, proof, judgment or order in a currency other than the currency
(the “contractual currency”) in which the amount is expressed to be payable under the relevant Finance Document: 

  

	 	(A)	that Obligor shall indemnify that Finance Party as an independent obligation against any loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion; 

 

	 	(B)	if the amount received by that Finance Party, when converted into the contractual currency at a market rate in the usual course of its business, is less than the amount owed in the contractual currency, the Obligor
concerned shall forthwith on demand pay to that Finance Party an amount in the contractual currency equal to the deficit; and 

  

	 	(C)	the Obligor shall pay to the Finance Party concerned on demand any exchange costs and taxes payable in connection with any such conversion. 

 

	 	23.1.2	Each Obligor waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under the Finance Documents in a currency other than that in which it is expressed to be payable.

Party against any loss or liability which that Finance Party incurs as a consequence of:

	 	23.2.4	the occurrence of a change described in, and the operation of Clause 11.4 (Change in circumstances) in relation to, an Optional Currency; or 

  
 55 

	 	23.2.5	(other than by reason of negligence or default by a Finance Party) an Advance not being disbursed after a Borrower has delivered a Request for that Advance. 

The Parent’s liability in each case includes any loss or expense on account of funds borrowed, contracted for or utilised to fund any
amount payable under any Finance Document, any amount repaid or prepaid or any Advance.

any actual costs, loss or liability incurred by the Agent (acting reasonably) as a direct result of the Agent acting or relying on any notice, request or instruction which it reasonably believes to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised.

  

	24.	EVIDENCE AND CALCULATIONS 

  

	24.1	Accounts 

 Accounts maintained by a Finance Party in connection with this Agreement are
prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate. 
  

	24.2	Certificates and determinations 

 Any certification or determination by a
Finance Party of a rate or amount under this Agreement is, in the absence of manifest error, conclusive evidence of the matters to which it relates. 
  

	24.3	Calculations 

 Interest and the fee payable under Clause 20.1 (Commitment
fee) accrue from day to day and are calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a year of 365 days or, in the case of interest at the US$ Swingline Rate or Euro Swingline Rate or any interest payable on an amount
denominated in a currency other than Sterling, 360 days (or such other day count convention as shall be consistent with the then generally accepted practice in the London interbank market). 

 

	25.	AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS 

  

	25.1	Procedure 

  

	 	25.1.1	Subject to Clause 25.2 (Exceptions), any term of the Finance Documents may be amended or waived with the agreement of the Parent and the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Banks). The Agent may
effect, on behalf of the Banks, any amendment or waiver permitted by this Clause 25.1.1. 

  

	 	25.1.2	The Agent shall promptly notify the other Parties of any amendment or waiver effected under Clause 25.1.1 above, and any such amendment or waiver shall be binding on all the Parties. 

 

	25.2	Exceptions 

  

	 	25.2.1	An amendment or waiver which relates to: 

  

	 	(A)	the definition of “Majority Banks” in Clause 1.1 (Definitions); 

  

	 	(B)	an extension of the date for, or a decrease in an amount or a change in the currency of, any payment under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(C)	an increase in a Bank’s Commitment; 

  

	 	(D)	a change in the guarantee under Clause 14 (Guarantee); 

  

	 	(E)	a term of a Finance Document which expressly requires the consent of each Bank; or 

  
 56 

	 	(F)	Clause 29 (Pro Rata Sharing) or this Clause 25 (Amendments and Waivers), 

may not be effected without the consent of each Bank. 
  

	 	25.2.2	An amendment or waiver which relates to the rights or obligations of an Administrative Party (in its capacity as such) may not be effected without the consent of that Administrative Party. 

 

	25.3	Waivers and remedies cumulative 

 The rights of each Party under the
Finance Documents: 
  

	 	25.3.1	may be exercised as often as necessary; 

  

	 	25.3.2	are cumulative and not exclusive of its rights under the general law; and 

  

	 	25.3.3	may be waived only in writing and specifically. 

 Delay in exercising or non-exercise of any such right is not a waiver of that right. 
  

	26.	CHANGES TO THE PARTIES 

  

	26.1	Transfers by Obligors 

 No Obligor may assign, transfer, novate or dispose
of any of, or any interest in, its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement, except in the manner contemplated in Clause 7.5 (Changes to Borrowers). 

 

	26.2	Transfers by Banks 

  

	 	26.2.1	A Bank (the “Existing Bank”) may at any time assign, transfer, novate or sub-participate any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement to another
person (the “New Bank”) provided that: 

  

	 	(A)	the Parent shall have given its prior written consent to such assignment, transfer, novation or sub-participation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, having
regard (without limitation) to the relative credit rating of the New Bank and the other Banks), except that such consent shall not be required if an Event of Default is outstanding or where the New Bank is an Existing Bank or is an Affiliate of the
Existing Bank or any other Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	in the case of a partial assignment, transfer or novation of rights and/or obligations, a minimum amount of £5,000,000 (unless to an Affiliate of the Existing Bank or the Agent agrees otherwise) must be assigned,
transferred or novated; and 

  

	 	(C)	in the case of an assignment, transfer or novation by a Swingline Bank, a portion of that Swingline Bank’s Swingline Commitment must also be assigned, transferred or novated to the extent necessary (if at all) to
ensure that the Swingline Bank’s Swingline Commitments do not exceed its Revolving Facility Commitment after the assignment, transfer or novation. A Bank may not acquire a Swingline Commitment if that Swingline Commitment would exceed its
Revolving Facility Commitment. 

  

	 	26.2.2	A transfer of obligations will be effective only if either: 

  

	 	(A)	the obligations are novated in accordance with Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations); or 

  

	 	(B)	 the New Bank confirms to the Agent and the Parent that it undertakes to be bound by the terms of this Agreement
as a Bank in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent and the Parent. On the transfer 

  
 57 

	 	
becoming effective in this manner the Existing Bank shall be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that they are transferred to the New Bank. 

 

	 	26.2.3	On each occasion an Existing Bank assigns, transfers or novates any of its rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (other than to an Affiliate), the New Bank shall, on the date the assignment, transfer and/or
novation takes effect, pay to the Agent for its own account a fee of £2,000. 

  

	 	26.2.4	An Existing Bank is not responsible to a New Bank for: 

  

	 	(A)	the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; 

  

	 	(B)	the collectability of amounts payable under any Finance Document; or 

  

	 	(C)	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

	 	26.2.5	Each New Bank confirms to the Existing Bank and the other Finance Parties that it: 

  

	 	(A)	has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied
exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Bank in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	(B)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under this Agreement or any Commitment is in force.

  

	 	26.2.6	Nothing in any Finance Document obliges an Existing Bank to: 

  

	 	(A)	accept a re-transfer from a New Bank of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 26.2; or 

 

	 	(B)	support any losses incurred by the New Bank by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise. 

 

	 	26.2.7	Any reference in this Agreement to a Bank includes a New Bank but excludes a Bank if no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and its Commitment has been cancelled or reduced to nil.

  

	26.3	Procedure for novations 

  

	 	26.3.1	A novation is effected if: 

  

	 	(A)	the Existing Bank and the New Bank deliver to the Agent a duly completed certificate (a “Novation Certificate”), substantially in the form of Part I of Schedule 4 (Forms of
Accession Documents), with such amendments as the Agent approves to achieve a substantially similar effect (which may be delivered by fax and confirmed by delivery of a hard copy original but the fax will be effective irrespective of
whether confirmation is received); and 

  

	 	(B)	the Agent (except if the novation is to an Existing Bank or an Affiliate of the Existing Bank or any other Bank) executes it. The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Novation 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.

  

	 	26.3.2	Each Party (other than the Existing Bank, the New Bank and the Parent) irrevocably authorises the Agent to execute any duly completed Novation Certificate on its behalf. 

  
 58 

	 	26.3.3	To the extent that they are expressed to be the subject of the novation in the Novation Certificate: 

  

	 	(A)	the Existing Bank and the other Parties (the “Existing Parties”) will be released from their obligations to each other (the “discharged obligations”); 

 

	 	(B)	the New Bank and the Existing Parties will assume obligations towards each other which differ from the discharged obligations only insofar as they are owed to or assumed by the New Bank instead of the Existing Bank;

  

	 	(C)	the rights of the Existing Bank against the Existing Parties and vice versa (the “discharged rights”) will be cancelled; and 

 

	 	(D)	the New Bank and the Existing Parties will acquire rights against each other which differ from the discharged rights only insofar as they are exercisable by or against the New Bank instead of the Existing Bank,

 all on the date of execution of the Novation Certificate by the Agent, the Existing Party, the New Party and the Parent or,
if later, the date specified in the Novation Certificate. 
  

	 	26.3.4	If the effective date of a novation (other than a novation by an Existing Bank to an Affiliate) is after the date a Request is received by the Agent but before the date the requested Advance is disbursed to the relevant
Borrower, the Existing Bank shall be obliged to participate in that Advance in respect of its discharged obligations notwithstanding that novation, and the New Bank shall reimburse the Existing Bank for its participation in that Advance and all
interest and fees thereon up to the date of reimbursement (in each case to the extent attributable to the discharged obligations) within three Business Days of the Utilisation Date of that Advance. 

 

	26.4	Security over Bank’s Rights 

 A Bank may, without consulting
with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge to, assign to, or otherwise create a Security Interest 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 Bank to a federal reserve, central bank or any authorised government body, except that no such charge, assignment or Security Interest shall: 
  

	 	26.4.1	release a Bank from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant charge, assignment or Security Interest for the Bank as party to any of the Finance Documents; or

  

	 	26.4.2	affect the obligations of the Obligors under the Finance Documents or require any payments to be made by an 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 Bank under the Finance Documents. 

  

	26.5	Pro rata interest settlement 

  

	 	26.5.1	If the Agent has notified the Banks that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Existing Banks and New Banks then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 26.2
(Transfer by Banks) or a novation pursuant to Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations) the date on which the transfer or novation effective (the “Transfer Date”) of which, in each case,
is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of a Term): 

  

	 	(A)	 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 

  
 59 

	 	
accrue in favour of the Existing Bank up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Bank (without further
interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Term (or, if the Term is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Term); and 

 

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

 

	 	(1)	when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account of the Existing Bank; and 

  

	 	(2)	the amount payable to the New Bank on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 26.5, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

  

	 	26.5.2	In this Clause 26.5, references to “Term” shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees. 

 

	26.6	Additional Borrowers 

  

	 	26.6.1	If the Parent wishes one of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries to become an Additional Borrower, then it may (if the Majority Banks have approved the identity of the Additional Borrower in writing) deliver to the Agent the
documents listed in Part II of Schedule 2 (Condition Precedent Documents). 

  

	 	26.6.2	On delivery of a Borrower Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Parent, the Subsidiary concerned will become an Additional Borrower. However, it may not submit a Request until the Agent
confirms to the other Finance Parties and the Parent that it has received all the documents referred to in Clause 26.6.1 above in form and substance satisfactory to it. 

 

	 	26.6.3	Delivery of a Borrower Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Parent, constitutes confirmation by that Subsidiary that the representations and warranties set out in Clause 15
(Representations and Warranties), except for Clause 15.8 (Litigation), Clause 15.9 (Material adverse change), Clause 15.10 (Accounts) and Clause 15.11 (Sanctions)), deemed to be made by
it on the date of the Borrower Accession Agreement are correct, as if made with reference to the facts and circumstances then existing. 

  

	26.7	Bank Retirement 

  

	 	26.7.1	Without prejudice to Clause 26.13 (Replacement of a Defaulting Bank), the Parent may, at any time whilst an Event of Default is not continuing, require a Bank to retire from the
Facilities by giving at least ten Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Parties and the relevant Bank. 

  

	 	26.7.2	If the Parent has given its prior written consent to such retirement (which consent may be withheld in the Parent’s absolute discretion), a Bank may retire from the Facilities by giving at least ten Business
Days’ notice to each of the Administrative Parties and the Parent. 

  

	 	26.7.3	On expiry of a notice (a “Retirement Notice”) given pursuant to Clause 26.7.1 or 26.7.2 then, at the Parent’s option: 

 

	 	(A)	

  

	 	(1)	the Commitment of the relevant Bank shall be automatically cancelled; 

  

	 	(2)	 each Borrower shall repay any Advances made to it by the relevant Bank together with all accrued interest on the
amount 

  
 60 

	 	
repaid, all accrued commitment fees on the cancelled Commitment, and any other amounts payable by it to that Bank under this Agreement (including under Clause 23.2.3 (Other
indemnities)); and 

  

	 	(3)	(upon payment of the amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (2) above) the relevant Bank shall cease to be a Party to this Agreement and shall cease to have any rights or
obligations hereunder (other than in respect of any amounts referred to in sub-paragraph (2) subsequently required by a court of competent jurisdiction to be repaid by the relevant Bank to any person); or

  

	 	(B)	the relevant Bank shall novate to another bank or financial institution selected by the Parent its Commitment and the Advances made by it in accordance with Clause 26.3 (Procedure for novations).

  

	 	26.7.4	Any Retirement Notice is irrevocable once given. 

  

	26.8	Reference Banks 

 If a Reference Bank (or, if a Reference Bank is not a Bank, the
Bank of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Bank, the Agent shall (in consultation with the Parent) appoint another Bank or an Affiliate of a Bank which is not a Reference Bank to replace that Reference Bank. 

 

	26.9	Register 

 The Agent shall keep a register of all the Parties including in the case of
Banks the details of their Facility Office notified to the Agent from time to time, and shall supply any other Party (at that Party’s expense) with a copy of the register on request. 

 

	26.10	Affiliates of Banks 

  

	 	26.10.1	Each Bank may fulfil its obligations in respect of any Advance through an Affiliate if: 

  

	 	(A)	the relevant Affiliate is specified in this Agreement as a Bank or becomes a Bank by means of a Novation Certificate in accordance with this Agreement; and 

 

	 	(B)	the Advances in which that Affiliate will participate are specified in this Agreement or in a notice given by that Bank to the Agent and the Borrowers. 

In this event, the Bank and the Affiliate will participate in Advances in the manner provided for in
sub-paragraph (B) above. 
  

	 	26.10.2	If Clause 26.10.1 above applies, the Bank and its Affiliate will be treated as having a single Commitment and a single vote, but, for all other purposes, will be treated as separate Banks. 

 

	26.11	Increase 

  

	 	26.11.1	The Parent may by giving prior written notice to the Agent after the effective date of a cancellation of: 

  

	 	(A)	the Available Commitments of a Defaulting Bank in accordance with Clause 7.6 (Right of cancellation in relation to a Defaulting Bank); or 

 

	 	(B)	the Commitments of a Bank in accordance with Clause 13.1 (Illegality), 

 request that
the Total Commitments be increased (and the Total Commitments shall be so increased) in an aggregate amount in sterling of up to the amount of the Available Commitments or Commitments so cancelled as follows: 

 

	 	(1)	 the increased Total Commitments will be assumed by one or more Banks or other banks or financial institutions
(each an “Increase Bank”) 

  
 61 

	 	
selected by the Parent (each of which shall not be a member of the Group and which is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably)), and each of which confirms its willingness to assume and does
assume all the obligations of a Bank corresponding to that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume, as if it had been an Original Bank; 

  

	 	(2)	each Obligor and any Increase Bank shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another as that Obligor and the Increase Bank would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Bank
been an Original Bank; 

  

	 	(3)	each Increase Bank shall become a Party as a “Bank” and any Increase Bank and each of the other Finance Parties shall assume obligations towards one another and acquire rights against one another as that
Increase Bank and those Finance Parties would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Bank been an Original Bank; and 

  

	 	(4)	the Commitments of the other Banks shall continue in full force and effect. 

  

	 	26.11.2	An increase in the Total Commitments will only be effective on: 

  

	 	(A)	the execution by the Agent of an Increase Confirmation from the relevant Increase Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	in relation to an Increase Bank which is not a Bank immediately prior to the relevant increase, the performance by the Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable
laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Bank, the completion of which the Agent shall promptly notify to the Parent and the Increase Bank; and 

 

	 	(C)	any increase in the Total Commitments shall take effect on the date specified by the Parent in the notice referred to in Clause 26.11.1 above or any later date on which the conditions set out in this Clause 26.11.2 are
satisfied. 

  

	 	26.11.3	Each Increase Bank, by executing the Increase Confirmation, confirms (for the avoidance of doubt) that the Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or on behalf of
the relevant Bank or Banks in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the increase becomes effective. 

  

	 	26.11.4	Unless the Agent otherwise agrees or the increased Commitment is assumed by an Existing Bank, the Obligors shall, on the date upon which the increase takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of
£2,000 and the Obligors shall promptly on demand pay the Agent the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred by it in connection with any increase in Commitments under this Clause 26.11. 

 

	 	26.11.5	Clauses 26.2.4 to 26.2.6 (both inclusive), shall apply mutatis mutandis in this Clause 26.11 in relation to an Increase Bank as if references in that Clause to: 

 

	 	(A)	an “Existing Bank” were references to all the Banks immediately prior to the relevant increase; 

  

	 	(B)	the “New Bank” were references to that “Increase Bank”; and 

  

	 	(C)	a “re-transfer” and “re-assignment” were references to respectively a “transfer” and
“assignment”. 

  

	26.12	Disenfranchisement of a Bank 

  

	 	26.12.1	 For so long as a Disenfranchised Bank (as such term is defined in Clause 20.1.3 (Commitment fee))
has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining the Majority Banks or whether any given percentage has been obtained to approve any 

  
 62 

	 	
request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, that Disenfranchised Bank’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments.

  

	 	26.12.2	For the purposes of this Clause 26.12, the Agent may assume that the following Banks are Disenfranchised Banks: 

  

	 	(A)	any Bank which has notified the Agent that it has become a Disenfranchised Bank; and 

  

	 	(B)	any Bank 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 Bank” has occurred and, in so far as such event
or circumstance relates to paragraph (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Bank”, it has received a notice of cancellation from the Parent in respect of that Bank pursuant to Clause 7.6 (Right of cancellation
in relation to a Defaulting Bank), 

 unless it has received notice to the contrary
from the Bank concerned (together with any supporting evidence reasonably requested by the Agent) or the Agent is otherwise aware that the Bank has ceased to be a Disenfranchised Bank. 

 

	26.13	Replacement of a Defaulting Bank 

  

	 	26.13.1	Without prejudice to Clause 26.7 (Bank Retirement), the Parent may, at any time a Bank has become and continues to be a Defaulting Bank, by giving five Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent
and such Bank: 

  

	 	(A)	replace such Bank by requiring such Bank to (and such Bank shall) transfer pursuant to this Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) all (and not part only) of its rights and obligations under this
Agreement; or 

  

	 	(B)	require such Bank to (and such Bank shall) transfer pursuant to this Clause 26 (Changes to the Parties) all (and not part only) of the undrawn Commitments of the Bank, 

to a Bank or other bank or financial institution (a “Replacement Bank”) selected by the Parent, and which (unless the
Agent is an Impaired Agent) is acceptable to the Agent (acting reasonably), which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations or all the relevant obligations of the transferring Bank (including the assumption of the
transferring Bank’s participations or unfunded participations (as the case may be) on the same basis as the transferring Bank) for a purchase price in cash, payable at the time of transfer, equal to the outstanding principal amount of such
Bank’s participation in the outstanding Advances and all accrued but unpaid interest, any amounts payable under Clause 23.2 (Other indemnities) and any other amounts payable in relation thereto under the Finance Documents. 

 

	 	26.13.2	The Agent may in its absolute discretion (and is authorised by each Finance Party, but is not obliged by the Obligors, to) execute, without requiring any further consent or action from any other Party, a Novation
Certificate on behalf of any Defaulting Bank which is required to transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Clause 26.13 above which shall be effective for the purposes of Clause 26.3 (Procedure for
novations). The Agent shall not be liable in any way for any action taken by it pursuant to this Clause 26.13 and, for the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of Clause 19.7 (Exoneration) shall apply in relation thereto.

  

	 	26.13.3	Any transfer of rights and obligations of a Defaulting Bank pursuant to this Clause 26.13 shall be subject to the following conditions: 

 

	 	(A)	neither the Agent nor the Defaulting Bank shall have any obligation to the Obligors to find a Replacement Bank; 

  

	 	(B)	the transfer must take place no later than seven days after the notice referred to in Clause 26.13.1 above; and 

  
 63 

	 	(C)	in no event shall the Defaulting Bank be required to pay or surrender to the Replacement Bank any of the fees received by the Defaulting Bank pursuant to the Finance Documents. 

 

	 	26.13.4	For the avoidance of doubt, the rights of the Obligors under Clause 26.7 (Bank Retirement) and Clause 26.13 (Replacement of a Defaulting Bank) are without prejudice to
each other and the rights under each Clause are capable of being exercised independently of each other by the Obligors. 

  

	27.	DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION AND KNOW YOUR CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS 

  

	27.1	Disclosure of information 

 A Bank may disclose: 

 

	 	27.1.1	a copy of any Finance Document; and

of its rights under any Finance Document under Clause 26.4 (Security over Bank’s Rights); or 

  

	 	27.1.6	any person to whom it is required to disclose such information under any law or regulation or by any regulatory authority, 

provided that a Bank shall not disclose any such information to a person under Clause 27.1.3 above (other than one of its Affiliates) unless
that person has provided to that Bank a confidentiality undertaking addressed to that Bank and the Parent substantially in the form of Schedule 5 (Form of Confidential Undertakings) or such other form as the Parent may
approve. 
  

	27.2	Disclosure to numbering service providers 

  

	 	27.2.1	Any Finance Party may disclose to any national or international numbering service provider appointed by that Finance Party to provide identification numbering services in respect of this Agreement, the Facility and/or
one or more Obligors the following information: 

  

	 	(A)	names of Obligors; 

  

	 	(B)	country of domicile of Obligors; 

  

	 	(C)	place of incorporation of Obligors; 

  

	 	(D)	date of this Agreement; 

  

	 	(E)	the names of the Agent, the US$ Swingline Agent and the Euro Swingline Agent; 

  

	 	(F)	date of each amendment and restatement of this Agreement; 

  

	 	(G)	amount of Total Commitments; 

  

	 	(H)	currencies of the Facility; 

  

	 	(I)	type of Facility; 

  

	 	(J)	ranking of Facility; 

  
 64 

	 	(K)	Final Maturity Date for Facility; 

  

	 	(L)	changes to any of the information previously supplied pursuant to paragraphs (A) to (K) above; and 

  

	 	(M)	such other information agreed between such Finance Party and the Parent, 

 to enable such
numbering service provider to provide its usual syndicated loan numbering identification services. 
  

	 	27.2.2	The Parties acknowledge and agree that each identification number assigned to this Agreement, the Facility and/or one or more Obligors by a numbering service provider and the information associated with each such number
may be disclosed to users of its services in accordance with the standard terms and conditions of that numbering service provider. 

  

	27.3	Know your Customer requirements 

  

	 	27.3.1	Each Obligor must promptly on the request of any Finance Party supply to that Finance Party any documentation or other evidence which is reasonably requested by that Finance Party (whether for itself, on behalf of any
Finance Party or any prospective new Bank) to enable a Finance Party or prospective New Bank to carry out and be satisfied with the results of all applicable know your customer requirements. 

 

	 	27.3.2	Each Bank must promptly on the request of the Agent supply to the Agent any documentation or other evidence which is reasonably required by the Agent to carry out and be satisfied with the results of all applicable know
your customer requirements. 

  

	28.	SET-OFF 

 Whilst an Event of Default is
continuing, a Finance Party may set off any matured obligation owed by an Obligor under this Agreement (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to that
Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. 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. If either obligation is unliquidated or unascertained, the Finance Party may set off in an amount estimated by it in good faith to be the amount of that obligation.

  

	29.	PRO RATA SHARING 

  

	29.1	Redistribution 

 If any amount owing by an Obligor under this Agreement to a Finance
Party (the “recovering Finance Party”) is discharged by payment, set-off or any other manner other than in accordance with Clause 9 (Payments) (a
“recovery”), then: 
  

	 	29.1.1	the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the recovery to the Agent; 

  

	 	29.1.2	the Agent shall determine whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Finance Party would have received had the recovery been received and distributed in accordance with Clause 9
(Payments); 

  

	 	29.1.3	subject to Clause 29.3 (Exception), the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent pay to the Agent an amount (the “redistribution”) equal to the excess;

  

	 	29.1.4	the Agent shall treat the redistribution as if it were a payment by the Obligor concerned under Clause 9 (Payments) and shall pay the redistribution to the Finance Parties (other than the recovering Finance
Party) in accordance with Clause 9.8 (Partial payments); and 

  
 65 

	 	29.1.5	after payment of the full redistribution, the recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the portion of the claims paid under Clause 29.1.4 above, and that Obligor will owe the recovering Finance Party a debt which
is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged. 

  

	29.2	Reversal of redistribution 

 If under Clause 29.1 (Redistribution):

  

	 	29.2.1	a recovering Finance Party must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to an Obligor; and 

 

	 	29.2.2	the recovering Finance Party has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery, 

 each
Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the recovering Finance Party through the Agent, reimburse the recovering Finance Party all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party. Thereupon the
subrogation in Clause 29.1.5 will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement. 
  

	29.3	Exception 

 A recovering Finance Party need not pay a redistribution to the extent that
it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the Obligor concerned in the amount of the redistribution pursuant to Clause 29.1.5. 
  

	30.	SEVERABILITY 

 If a provision of any Finance Document is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that shall not affect: 
  

	 	30.1.1	the legality, validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other provision of the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	30.1.2	the legality, validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other provision of the Finance Documents.

England have jurisdiction to settle any disputes in connection with any Finance Document (including a dispute relating to the existence, validity or termination of any Finance Document or any non-contractual
obligations arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document) and accordingly submits to the jurisdiction of the English courts. 
  

	34.2	Service of process 

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

	 	34.2.1	irrevocably appoints the Parent as its agent for service of process relating to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document (and the Parent accepts this appointment);

  

	 	34.2.2	agrees that failure by a process agent to notify the Obligor of the process will not invalidate the proceedings concerned; and 

  

	 	34.2.3	consents to the service of process relating to any such proceedings by prepaid posting of a copy of the process to its address for the time being applying under Clause 32.2 (Addresses for notices).

  

	34.3	Forum convenience and enforcement abroad 

  
 68 

 Each Party: 
  

	 	34.3.1	waives objection to the English courts on grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise as regards proceedings in connection with a Finance Document; and 

 

	 	34.3.2	agrees that a judgment or order of an English court in connection with a Finance Document is conclusive and binding on it and may be enforced against it in the courts of any other jurisdiction. 

 

	34.4	Non-exclusivity 

 Nothing in this Clause 34
limits the right of a Finance Party to bring proceedings or enforce a judgment against an Obligor in connection with any Finance Document: 
  

	 	34.4.1	in any other court of competent jurisdiction; or 

  

	 	34.4.2	to the extent permitted by applicable law, concurrently in more than one jurisdiction. 

  

	35.	GOVERNING LAW 

 This Agreement and any dispute or claim arising out of or in
connection with it or its subject matter, existence, negotiation, validity, termination or enforceability (including any non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance
with English law. 
 THIS AGREEMENT has been entered into on the date stated at the beginning of this Agreement.

 Yours
