Obligor to any Finance Party shall be a separate and independent debt.  Each such party shall be entitled to protect
and enforce its individual rights arising out of this Agreement (but, for the
avoidance of doubt, not the Security Documents) independently of any other
party (so that it shall not be necessary for any party hereto to be joined as
an additional party in any proceedings for this purpose).

 

3.6                                 Coordinator

 

(a)                                  Each Original Obligor hereby irrevocably
appoints the Coordinator to act as its agent for the purposes of the Finance
Documents including, without limitation, the delivery of Utilisation Notices
and the execution of any amendments or waivers contemplated under the terms of
Clause 44 (Amendments).  Each Additional Obligor shall appoint the
Coordinator as its agent for the purposes of the Finance Documents by the
execution of an Accession Memorandum. 
The Finance Parties may rely on a document signed by the Coordinator as
if the Coordinator and each other Obligor had signed it.

 

(b)                                 The Coordinator shall be responsible for
collecting and providing all information required to be delivered, in each
case, by any Obligor to any Finance Party under this Agreement, including (i)
the relevant Asset Report on each Reporting Date (in the case of Advances other
than Swingline Advances) and, subject to Clause 4.3 (Delivery of
an Asset Report for Letters of Credit) and Clause 5.2(a) (Delivery of a Utilisation Notice for Swingline Advances),
the relevant Notification Date (in the case of Letters of Credit and Swingline
Advances) and (ii) the Utilisation Notices.

 

(c)                                  The Coordinator may give a good receipt for
any amount payable by a Finance Party to any Obligor.  Any communication delivered to the
Coordinator shall be deemed for the purposes of any Finance Document to have
been delivered to each member of the Group and each other Obligor.  Any communication made by the Coordinator to
any Finance Party shall be deemed to have been made with the consent of each
other member of the Group and each other Obligor.

If at any time
prior to the issue of a Letter of Credit any Bank is prohibited either by law
or pursuant to any requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or
other authority from having any right or obligation under this Agreement in
respect of such Letter of Credit, such Bank shall subject to Clause 18 (Mitigation and Other

 

117

 

Provisions
Relating to Taxes and Increased Costs) notify the Facility Agent on or before the Business
Day prior to the proposed Utilisation Date and:

 

(a)                                  the Face Amount of such Letter of Credit
shall be reduced by an amount equal to what would have been the amount of such
Bank’s L/C Proportion of such Letter of Credit if such prohibition had not
occurred;

 

(b)                                 the L/C Proportion of such Bank in relation

4.8                                 Canadian Advances

Canadian Advance prior to the issuance of a Notice of Exercise of Sale Right.

 

(b)                                 Prior to the issuance of a Notice of Exercise
of Sale Right and concurrently with the making and funding of each Canadian
Advance by the Canadian Permitted Bank, the Canadian Permitted Bank shall be
deemed to have purchased and received from each Non-Canadian Bank and each Non-Canadian
Bank shall be deemed irrevocably, immediately and unconditionally to have sold
to the Canadian Permitted Bank, without recourse or warranty and for the
consideration described in Clause 26 (Canadian Permitted Bank
Fees), a right (each a “Canadian
Revolving Sale Right”) exercisable solely at the option of the
Canadian Permitted Bank as permitted under Clause 23.20 (Exercise of Sale Right) to sell to the Non-Canadian Bank,
and thereupon to mandatorily and irrevocably require the Non-Canadian Bank to
purchase and assume, the Non-Canadian Bank’s Canadian Pro-Rata Share of (i) all
Canadian Outstandings and (ii) the Commitments of the Canadian Permitted Bank
in respect of the A1 Canadian Dollar Tranche and the A2 Canadian Dollar
Tranche.  For the avoidance of doubt, no
Non-Canadian Bank shall have any ownership right, title or interest, legal or
beneficial, in any Canadian Outstandings in respect of a Facility, or shall be
entitled to receive any payments of principal or interest thereon, or any other
amounts in respect thereof, unless and until the Non-Canadian Bank’s purchase
of an ownership interest in such Canadian Outstandings upon the exercise of a
Canadian Revolving Sale Right by the Canadian Permitted Bank in respect of such
Canadian Outstandings pursuant to Clause 23.20 (Exercise of
Sale Right).

 

(c)                                  If any Canadian Advance is made after a
Notice of Exercise of Sale Right has been issued each Non-Canadian Bank with a
Commitment under the A1 Canadian Dollar Tranche or the A2 Canadian Dollar
Tranche (as applicable) shall fund its Canadian Pro-Rata Share of such Canadian
Advance.

 

(d)                                 If BNP Paribas ceases to be the Facility
Agent, the Non-Canadian Banks may, by unanimous consent, provide notice to the
Canadian Permitted Bank that they will cancel their obligation to purchase,
pursuant to Clause 23.20

 

118

 

(Exercise of Sale Right), the Non-Canadian
Bank’s Canadian Pro-Rata Share of (i) all Canadian Outstandings and (ii) the
Commitments of the Canadian Permitted Bank in respect of the A1 Canadian Dollar
Tranche and the A2 Canadian Dollar Tranche and any A Swingline Facility on the
date which is 30 days after receipt of such notice by the Canadian
Permitted Bank (the “Canadian Permitted Bank
Sale Date”), and the Canadian Permitted Bank agrees to transfer all
of the foregoing interests to the successor named in such notice on such date
provided that such successor shall satisfy paragraph (b)(i) or (b)(ii) of the
definition of “Qualifying Bank”.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the sole
discretion of the Canadian Permitted Bank, the Canadian Permitted Bank may
elect, by providing notice to the Non-Canadian Banks prior to the Canadian
Permitted Bank Sale Date, to only transfer such interests to the extent of its
Canadian Sale Right and otherwise retain its Canadian Outstanding and
Commitments under the A1 Canadian Dollar Tranche and the A2 Canadian Dollar
Tranche and any A Swingline Facility.

 

4.9                                 Reduction of Available Commitment

 

If a Bank’s
Commitment is reduced pursuant to Clause 13 (Cancellation
and Prepayment) or Clause 17 (Illegality)
after the Facility Agent has received the Utilisation Notice pursuant to this
Clause 4 or a request for an extension of the Term of a Letter of Credit
pursuant to Clause 4.5 (Renewal of a Letter of
Credit) and such reduction was not taken into account in calculating
the relevant Available Facility, then the amount of the relevant Advance or
Letter of Credit shall be reduced accordingly provided that in the case of any
Advance or Letter of Credit to be made by a Bank or L/C Issuer (as the case may
be) to an Australian Borrower the reduction shall not at any time cause the
principal amount outstanding on the Loan Note referable to that Advance to be
less than the Minimum Principal Loan Note Amount.

first paying such amount to the Australian Orphan SPV,

 

provided
that the aggregate amount of all A1 Swingline Advances made or deemed to be
made pursuant to this paragraph (b) shall not at any time exceed the A1
Australian Dollar Reserve Amount.

(e) and (f) below, if the conditions set out in this Agreement have been met,
each A1, A2 or C Swingline Bank shall participate through its relevant
Facility office in each

 

122

 

Swingline Advance available made pursuant to this Clause 5 in its
respective proportion.

 

(b)                                 The relevant Swingline Banks will only be
obliged to comply with paragraph (a) above if on the date of the relevant
Utilisation Notice and on the relevant proposed Utilisation Date:

 

(i)                                     no Event of Default or Potential Event of
Default is continuing or would result from the proposed utilisation; and

prior to the Utilisation Date,

 

(c)                                  Save as otherwise provided in paragraphs (d),

(e)                                  Prior to the issuance of a Notice of Exercise
of Sale Right and concurrently with the making and funding of each Canadian
Swingline Advance by the Canadian Permitted Bank, the Canadian Permitted Bank
shall be deemed to have purchased and received from each Non-Canadian Bank and
each Non-Canadian Bank shall be deemed irrevocably, immediately and
unconditionally to have sold to the Canadian Permitted Bank, without recourse
or warranty and for the consideration described in Clause 26 (Canadian Permitted Bank Fees), a right (each a “Canadian Swingline Sale Right”) exercisable
solely at the option of the Canadian Permitted Bank as permitted under
Clause 23.20 (Exercise of Sale Right)
to sell to the Non-Canadian Bank, and to mandatorily and irrevocably require
the Non-Canadian Bank to purchase and assume, the Non-Canadian Bank’s Canadian
Pro-Rata Share of all Canadian Outstandings in respect of such Swingline
Facility adjusted to take account of any limit applying under Clause 5.5 (Relationship with the Other Facilities).  For the avoidance of doubt, no Non-Canadian
Bank shall have any ownership right, title or interest, legal or beneficial, in
any Canadian Outstandings in respect of a Swingline Facility, or shall be
entitled to receive any payments of principal or interest thereon, or any other
amounts in respect thereon, unless and until the Non-Canadian Bank’s purchase
of an ownership interest in such Canadian Outstandings in respect of such
Swingline Facility upon the exercise of a Canadian Swingline Sale Right by the
Canadian Permitted Bank in respect of such Canadian Outstandings in respect of
such Swingline Facility pursuant to Clause 23.20 (Exercise of
Sale Right).

 

(f)                                    If any Canadian Swingline Advance is made
after a Notice of Exercise of Sale Right has been issued each Non-Canadian Bank
with a Commitment under

 

123

 

any A Swingline Facility shall fund its Canadian Swingline Pro-Rata
Share of such Canadian Swingline Advance.

 

5.5                                 Relationship with the Other Facilities

 

(a)                                  This Clause 5.5 applies when a Swingline
Advance is outstanding or is to be borrowed.

 

(b)                                 Each of the A1 Facility, the A2 Facility and
the C Facility may be used by way of Swingline Advances.  The Swingline Facilities are not independent
of the A1 Facility, A2 Facility or the C Facility.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding any other term of this
Agreement, a Bank is only obliged to participate in an Advance (including a
Swingline Advance) to the extent that it would not result in the aggregate Euro
Amount of its participation and that of a Bank which is its affiliate in the
Advances exceeding its Overall Commitment in relation to the A1 Facility, the
A2 Facility or the C Facility (as the case may be).

 

(d)                                 Where, but for the operation of
paragraph (c) above, the Euro Amount of a Bank’s participation and that of
a Bank which is its affiliate in the relevant Advance (including a Swingline
Advance) would have exceeded its Overall Commitment in relation to the A1
Facility, the A2 Facility or the C Facility (as the case may be), the excess
will be apportioned among the other Banks participating in the relevant Advance
pro rata according to their relevant Commitments in relation to such
Facility.  This calculation will be
applied as often as necessary until the relevant Advance is apportioned among
the relevant Banks in a manner consistent with paragraph (c) above.

 

(e)                                  For the purposes of paragraphs (c) and (d)
above, a participation in an Advance will include a Bank’s Canadian Pro-Rata
Share of any Canadian Advance.

Notwithstanding
any other term of this Agreement, each Bank shall ensure that at all times its

the parties acknowledge that by virtue of certain characteristics of the

of the Facilities made available to the French Borrowers cannot be calculated
at the date of this Agreement.  However,
the French Borrowers on the date of this Agreement acknowledge or on the date
of their accession to this Agreement will acknowledge, that they have each
received from the Facility Agent a duly completed letter (a “TEG Letter”) in the form set out in Schedule 12 (Form of TEG Letter) containing an indicative calculation of
the effective global rate (taux effectif global)
of the Facilities, based on figured examples calculated on assumptions set out
in that TEG Letter.  The parties

rate (tasso annuo effectivo globale – TAEG) pursuant to Article 2 of Law
no. 108 of 17 March 1996 and the relevant implementing legislation) of a
Facility payable by an Obligor incorporated under the laws of Italy under this
Agreement would result in a breach of Italian usury law, then any such payment
shall be capped, for the shortest period possible (if applicable), at the
maximum amount permitted to be payable by such Obligor under Italian usury law.

 

9.                                      MARKET DISRUPTION AND
ALTERNATIVE INTEREST RATES

 

9.1                                 Market Disruption

 

(a)                                  If, in relation to any Advance (other than a
BA Rate Loan or a Swingline Advance) or Unpaid Sum:

 

(i)                                     at or about the time specified in this
Agreement on the Quotation Date (or other relevant date of determination as
specified in this Agreement), the appropriate Screen Rate is not displayed and
none or only one of the relevant Reference Banks supplies a rate for the purpose
of determining the relevant interbank rate for the relevant Interest Period or
Term; or

 

127

 

(ii)                                  before 5.00 p.m. in Paris on the Quotation
Date for such Advance or Unpaid Sum the Facility Agent has been notified by a
Bank or each of a group of Banks to whom in aggregate fifty per cent. or more
of such Advance or Unpaid Sum is owed (or, in the case of an undrawn Advance,
if made, would be owed) that the relevant interbank rate does not accurately
reflect the cost of funding its participation in such Advance or Unpaid Sum,

 

then,
the Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Parent and the Banks (by telefax
or by telephone) of such event and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, Clause 9.2 (Substitute Interest Period
and Interest Rate) shall apply to such Advance (if it is a Rollover
Advance) or Unpaid Sum.  If paragraph (a)
or (b) of this Clause 9.1 applies to a proposed Advance (being an Advance
which is not (i) a Rollover Advance or (ii) an Advance to fund payment of a
Letter of Credit under Clause 12.6 (Advances to meet Demands
in respect of Letters of Credit) (an “Incremental
Advance”)), such Incremental Advance shall not be made.

 

(b)                                 If, by reason of circumstances affecting the Canadian
money market generally, as determined by the Facility Agent (acting
reasonably), there is no market for Canadian Dollar bankers’ acceptances, the
right of a Canadian Borrower to request a BA Rate Loan shall be suspended until
the circumstances causing the suspension no longer exist, and until such time,
any Utilisation Notice which is outstanding for BA Rate Loans shall be
cancelled and the Canadian Borrower may only obtain Canadian Swingline
Advances.

 

9.2                                 Substitute Interest Period and Interest Rate

 

If
Clause 9.1(a)(i) (Market Disruption)
or Clause 9.1(a)(ii) (Market Disruption)
applies to an Advance or Unpaid Sum, the rate of interest applicable to each
Bank’s portion of such Advance or Unpaid Sum during the relevant Interest
Period or Term shall (subject to any agreement reached pursuant to
Clause 9.3 (Alternative Rate)) be the rate
per annum which is the sum of:

 

(a)                                  the Applicable Margin; and

 

(b)                                 the rate per annum notified to the Facility
Agent by such Bank (which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify to the
Parent) before the last day of such Interest Period or Term to be that which
expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Bank of funding from
whatever sources are available to it its portion of such Advance or Unpaid Sum during
such Interest Period or Term.  Such
notification shall include a reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation
of such rate.

 

9.3                                 Alternative Rate

 

If (a) either of
those events mentioned in Clauses 9.1(a)(i) and Clause 9.1(a)(ii) (Market Disruption) occurs in relation to an Advance or
Unpaid Sum or (b) by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant interbank
market during any period of three consecutive Business Days the relevant
interbank rate is not available for the relevant currency to prime banks in the
relevant interbank market, then if the Facility Agent or

 

128

 

the Parent so
requires, the Facility Agent and the Parent shall enter into negotiations in
good faith and using commercially reasonable efforts to minimise the interest
cost to the Parent with a view to agreeing a substitute basis (i) for
determining the rates of interest from time to time applicable to the Advances
and Unpaid Sums and/or (ii) upon which the Advances and Unpaid Sums may be
maintained (whether in Euro or some other currency) thereafter and any such
substitute basis that is agreed shall take effect in accordance with its terms
and be binding on each party hereto, provided that the Facility Agent may not
agree any such substitute basis without the prior consent of an Instructing
Group in respect of the relevant Facility.

12.                               C BORROWER’S LIABILITIES IN RELATION TO LETTERS OF
CREDIT

(a)                                  any sum paid or due and payable by such L/C
Issuer under such Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of such Letter
of Credit; and

 

(b)                                 all liabilities, costs, claims, losses and

of demand of the Facility Agent) each Bank against:

 

(a)                                  any sum paid or due and payable by such Bank
(whether under Clause 35.1 (Banks’ Indemnity)
or otherwise) in connection with such Letter of Credit; and

 

(b)                                 all liabilities, costs, claims, losses and
expenses which such Bank may at any time properly incur or sustain in
connection with any Letter of Credit other than those arising out of the
relevant L/C Issuer’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

 

12.3                           Preservation of Rights

 

Neither the
obligations of any C Borrower set out in this Clause 12 nor the rights,
powers and remedies conferred on any L/C Issuer or any Bank by this Agreement
or by law shall be discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

 

(a)                                  the winding-up, dissolution, administration
or re-organisation of the relevant L/C Issuer, any Bank or any other person or
any change in its status, function, control or ownership;

 

(b)                                 any of the obligations of the relevant L/C
Issuer, any Bank or any other person hereunder or under any Letter of Credit or
under any other security taken in respect of any C Borrower’s obligations
hereunder or otherwise in connection with a Letter of Credit being or becoming
illegal, invalid, unenforceable or ineffective in any respect;

 

(c)                                  any time or other indulgence being granted or
agreed to be granted to the relevant L/C Issuer, any Bank or any other person
in respect of its obligations

 

131

 

hereunder or under or in connection with a Letter of Credit or under
any such other security;

 

(d)           any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or
release of, any obligation of such L/C Issuer, any Bank or any other person
under a Letter of Credit or this Agreement;

 

(e)           any other act, event or omission (other than
gross negligence or wilful misconduct) which, but for this Clause 12,
might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of the obligations
of a C Borrower set out in this Clause 12 or any of the rights, powers or
remedies conferred upon such L/C Issuer or any Bank by this Agreement or
by law.

 

The obligations of each C

of every other security which any L/C Issuer or such Bank may at any time hold
in respect of such C Borrower’s obligations hereunder.

 

12.4         Settlement Conditional

 

Any settlement or
discharge between a C Borrower and an L/C Issuer or a Bank shall be conditional
upon no security or payment to such L/C Issuer or such Bank by such C Borrower,
or any other person on behalf of such C Borrower, being avoided or reduced by
virtue of any laws relating to bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar
laws of general application and, if any such security or payment is so avoided

Credit

L/C Issuer to comply with any demand under a Letter of Credit which is valid on
its face.

 

12.6         Advances to meet Demands in respect of
Letters of Credit

 

If a demand for payment
is made under a Letter of Credit the relevant C Borrower shall, unless it has
given at least three Business Days’ notice to the contrary to the Facility
Agent, be deemed to have issued a Utilisation Notice (to the extent that such C
Borrower would otherwise be permitted to request a Rollover Advance under this
Agreement) for a Rollover Advance maturing at the next Settlement Date and in
an amount equal to that to be paid by such C Borrower to the L/C Issuer
pursuant to Clause 12.1(a) (C Borrower’s Indemnity to
L/C Issuers) and save as otherwise provided herein, each Bank will
participate through its Facility Office in each such Rollover Advance made
pursuant to this Clause 12.6 (Advances to meet Demands
in respect of Letters of Credit) in the proportion borne by its
Available Commitment to the Available Facility in relation to the C Facility
immediately prior to the making of that Rollover Advance and the Facility Agent
shall pay the proceeds of each Rollover Advance to the relevant L/C Issuer.

 

132

 

13.          CANCELLATION AND
PREPAYMENT

 

13.1         Voluntary Cancellation

 

(a)           The Parent may, by giving to the Facility
Agent prior notice on a Reporting Date to that effect, cancel the whole or any
part (being in a minimum amount of €5,000,000 (or the Designated Currency
Equivalent thereof) and an integral multiple of €1,000,000 (or the Designated
Currency Equivalent thereof)) on the Settlement Date relating to such Reporting
Date) of any Available Facility.  Any such
cancellation shall reduce permanently the Commitment of each Bank in relation
to such Facility or Tranche (as the case may be) rateably save that prior to
the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date the maximum aggregate amount
of the Available Facility in relation to:

 

(i)            the A1 Facility that may be so cancelled
shall be limited to an aggregate Euro Amount of €200,000,000; and

 

(ii)           the A2 Facility that may be so cancelled
shall be limited to an aggregate Euro Amount of €30,000,000,

 

and provided always that
no amount of the A2 Facility may be cancelled until the A1 Facility has
been fully repaid and all the A1 Commitments of the relevant Banks reduced to
zero.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above and in
respect of Italian Borrowers only, no amount of the A1 Euro Tranche and/or of
the A2 Euro Tranche may be cancelled until the Italian Non-Guaranteed Tranches

(a)           If a Mandatory Cancellation Event occurs, the
Commitments shall be immediately cancelled and reduced to zero.

undrawn Commitment under each Facility shall be cancelled and no further amount
shall be capable of being drawn under any Facility.

 

13.3         Mandatory Reduction of the Facilities

 

The Parent shall (and
shall procure that each relevant Borrower shall) apply an amount equal to:

 

(a)           one hundred per cent. (100 per cent.) of any
Net Cash Proceeds less any Reinvested Amount in respect of any disposal, lease
or transfer of any asset of any Borrower (or in the case of a Borrower that is
a Financeco, its Related Opco) which constitutes a Permitted Disposal of the
nature described in paragraph (e) of the definition of “Permitted Disposals” (excluding, for the
avoidance of doubt, any Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of the shares or other
stock of an Excluded Canadian Company or of the assets of any Excluded Canadian
Company);

 

133

 

(b)           one hundred per cent. (100 per cent.) of the
Net Cash Proceeds (provided that such Net Cash Proceeds are in any financial
year in aggregate in excess of €10,000,000 received as a result of making a
claim under an insurance policy for damage to or destruction of any property or
asset of any Borrower (or in the case of a Borrower that is a Financeco, its Related
Opco) or in respect of any condemnation or casualty event (other than in
relation to any third party liability), save (i) if such Net Cash Proceeds
relate to a claim in respect of assets that are part of the relevant Borrower’s
A1 Borrowing Base, A2 Borrowing Base or C Borrowing Base (as the case may
be), and (ii) to the extent of any amount that has been or will be applied to
repair or to purchase or lease a replacement for such asset or property or
otherwise to remedy the cause of such claim, or which is otherwise reinvested
in the business of the relevant Borrower or its Related Opco (if applicable),
within 12 months (or, if longer, the period required by the Parent or the
relevant Borrower or its Related Opco (if applicable) to so apply such proceeds
provided that such longer period has been approved by the Facility Agent
(acting reasonably)) of receipt of such proceeds; and

 

(c)           one hundred per cent. (100 per cent.) of the
Net Cash Proceeds of any Take-Out Financing,

 

immediately upon receipt
by the relevant Borrower or its Related Opco (if applicable) of the proceeds of
any Take-Out Financing and as soon as reasonably practicable and in any case
within one month of receipt by the relevant Borrower or its Related Opco (if
applicable) in the case of all other amounts to which this Clause 13.3
applies, in repayment of the Facilities (and, in relation to any mandatory
prepayment as a result of the operation of paragraph (c) above, in the
reduction and pro tanto cancellation of the Facilities) in each case in
accordance with Clause 13.7 (Application of Amounts
Prepaid) and Clause 13.8 (Prepayment Accounts).

 

13.4         Change of Control, Sale and Change of
Ownership

 

(a)           If a Change of Control or Sale occurs:

an Orphan SPV, a partially financed Financeco or a partially owned SPV) ceases
to be a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Parent (save for de
minimis nominal shareholdings by the Target) or any Obligor that is an Orphan
Financeco or an Orphan SPV ceases to be an Orphan Financeco or an Orphan SPV,
such Obligor (together with its Related Opco, related Financeco and related
SPV) shall immediately prepay all Advances drawn by it and all sums advanced to
it hereunder and in the reduction and pro tanto cancellation of the Facilities,
in each case in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Application
of Amounts Prepaid).

 

134

 

13.5         Mandatory Prepayment on breach of Borrowing
Base

 

If in relation to a
particular Borrower and a particular Facility on any Calculation Date, the A1
Outstandings, the A2 Outstandings or the C Outstandings of such Borrower
exceeds such Borrower’s A1 Borrowing Base, A2 Borrowing Base or
C Borrowing Base (as the case may be), the Parent shall procure that no
later than the immediately succeeding Settlement Date, (a) an amount equal to
the amount of such excess is applied by the relevant Borrower in prepayment of
the relevant Outstandings in the relevant Designated Currency and (b) in the
case of the C Facility and any outstanding Letters of Credit, Cash Collateral
is provided in an amount equal to the amount of the relevant L/C Issuer’s
maximum actual and contingent liabilities under such Letter of Credit .

 

13.6         Limitations on Obligations

 

(a)           The mandatory prepayments pursuant to
paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Clause 13.3 (Mandatory
Reduction of the Facilities), Clause 13.5 (Mandatory
Prepayment on breach of Borrowing Base) and paragraph (e) of this
Clause 13.6 shall be limited to the sum of:

 

(i)            cash and Cash Equivalents held by the
relevant entity (which, in the case of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Clause
13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the Facilities)
shall be the entity that received the relevant Net Cash Proceeds) (the “Relevant Obligor”);

 

(ii)           distributable profits net of taxes for the
current financial year of the subsidiaries of such Relevant Obligor which are
distributable (taking into account the Relevant Obligor’s shareholding in such
subsidiaries and provided, in relation to any Relevant Obligor, that in the
circumstances where the Relevant Obligor does not have, directly or indirectly,
the power or ability to decide to pay any dividend or make any distribution of
profit of such subsidiaries without the prior approval of the other
shareholders, members or partners, as the case may be, in such subsidiaries,
such Relevant Obligor has used all reasonable endeavours to procure such prior
approval);

 

(iii)          distributable reserves in respect of a
subsidiary of a Relevant Obligor domiciled in France (en franchis
de prélévement exceptionnel sur les distributions de bénéfices
(article 95 of the Loi de Finances
for 2004)) or, in respect of a subsidiary domiciled other than in France, to
the extent that distributable reserves of such subsidiary domiciled other than
in France can be distributed without any material tax cost for non-French
subsidiaries of the Relevant Obligor which are distributable (taking into
account the Relevant Obligor’s shareholding in such subsidiaries and provided, in
relation to any Relevant Obligor, that in the circumstances where the Relevant
Obligor does not have, directly or indirectly, the power or ability to decide
to pay any dividend or make any distribution of reserves of such subsidiaries
without the prior approval of the other shareholders, members or partners, as
the case may be, in such subsidiaries, such Relevant Obligor has used all
reasonable endeavours to procure such prior approval);

 

135

 

(iv)          any intercompany loan which can be lawfully
granted by any member of the Group or other Obligor to the Relevant Obligor(s)
provided that such member of the Group or other Obligor holds cash and/or Cash
Equivalents in order to make such intercompany loans; and

 

(v)           any other debt owed by any member of the
Group or other Obligor to the Relevant Obligor(s) (either due and payable or,
if not, provided that such member of the Group or other Obligor holds cash
and/or Cash Equivalents sufficient to repay such debt), including, if any, any
tax payment due and payable by any member of the Group or other Obligor to the
Relevant Obligor(s) in connection with the tax consolidation of the Group (net
of provisions for taxes),

 

in each case to be
determined upon the date upon which the relevant prepayment obligation arose
(or, if relevant, the date upon which the proceeds are received by the Relevant
Obligor) and in each case net of taxes imposed in connection with such
prepayment.

 

(b)           For the avoidance of doubt, the Banks’ right
to a prepayment pursuant to paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Clause 13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the Facilities) in relation to Net
Cash Proceeds received by subsidiaries not fully owned by the Relevant Obligor,
shall be limited to the percentage of the share capital of such subsidiaries or
percentage of the relevant interest, as the case may be, held in any
partnership or other entity directly or indirectly held by the Relevant
Obligor.

 

(c)           Further, such prepayments shall be limited to
the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds cannot be obtained from the Relevant
Obligor without such Relevant Obligor or any of its subsidiaries (whether
direct or indirect) being in breach of any law (including any law relating to
the timing of distributions), regulation or binding ruling from a competent
authority or without the directors of such Relevant Obligor incurring personal
liability or breaching their fiduciary duties to such Relevant Obligor or
without the Relevant Obligor being placed into a position where it has insufficient
funds available to it to be able to continue to trade for the purposes of any
relevant insolvency law (taking into account funds available to such Relevant
Obligor from any other member of the Group or other Obligor); provided that in each such case the Parent shall deliver to
the Banks a certificate in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Facility Agent setting forth the circumstances of such breach of law,
regulation, binding ruling or fiduciary duty or such risk of personal liability
or insolvency circumstance.

 

(d)           Where any such prohibition or risk of
personal liability or breach of fiduciary duty exists, the Relevant Obligor
shall procure that each of its subsidiaries shall use all reasonable endeavours
lawfully to overcome the prohibition or risk.

 

(e)           To the extent that any Relevant Obligor’s
obligation to make a mandatory prepayment under Clause 13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the Facilities) is limited by the
provisions of this Clause 13.6 (Limitations on Obligations),
the balance of such Relevant Obligor’s pro rata portion of such mandatory

 

136

 

prepayment shall be paid by other Obligors to the extent permitted
hereunder to be applied in accordance with Clause 13.7 (Application of Amounts Prepaid) and to the extent permitted
by applicable law and this Clause 13.6. 
Any prepayment obligation by any Relevant Obligor which is limited by
the provisions of this Clause 13.6 (Limitations on Obligations),
and which cannot be allocated to prepayment by other Obligors as previously
provided, shall be on-going and shall be reinstated at the time and to the
extent that the events or circumstances giving rise to such limitation shall
cease to exist.

 

13.7         Application of Amounts Prepaid

 

(a)           Any amount to be applied in reduction of the
Facilities pursuant to Clause 13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the
Facilities) shall be applied in repayment of the Facility (or, in
the case of any A Facility, the relevant Tranche) in relation to which the
relevant Borrower (or the relevant Related Opco, as the case may be) is a
Borrower and if such Borrower has borrowed under more than one Facility or
Tranche (as the case may be), pro rata against each such Facility or Tranche
(as the case may be) provided that no such amount shall be applied in the
reduction and cancellation of the A2 Facility unless all of that Borrower’s A1
Outstandings have been fully repaid.

 

(b)           Upon any prepayment of any Facility (or, in
the case of any A Facility, any Tranche) pursuant to paragraph (a) above as a
result of a receipt of Net Cash Proceeds of any Take-Out Financing or pursuant
to Clause 13.4(b) (Change of Control, Sale
and Change of Ownership), (i) the aggregate Commitments of the Banks
under such Facility or Tranche (as the case may be) shall be cancelled in an
aggregate amount equal to the amount in the relevant Designated Currency of
such prepayment, (ii) the Commitments of each Bank under such Facility or
Tranche (as the case may be) shall be cancelled in an amount in the relevant Base
Currency equal to its Proportion of such prepayment and (iii) to the extent
that any Take-Out Financing (or related series of Take-Out Financings) shall
relate to more than one Borrower, the Facility Agent shall apply the
aforementioned prepayments against such Borrowers’ (and their respective
Related Opco’s) Outstandings in such proportion and in such manner (as among
such Borrowers (and their respective Related Opco’s) and as between each such
Borrower’s (and its respective Related Opco’s) A1 Outstandings, A2
Outstandings and, to the extent applicable, C Outstandings) as the
Facility Agent shall determine (acting reasonably) taking into account the
limitations referred to in Clause 13.6 (Limitations on Obligations).

 

13.8         Prepayment Accounts

 

(a)           If the provisions of Clause 13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the Facilities) would require a
Borrower to prepay any amount of an Advance otherwise than on the last day of
its Term, such Borrower may elect (by written notice to the Facility Agent) to
credit the amount to be repaid to a Prepayment Account on the date on which the
prepayment obligation would, but for this Clause 13.8 (Prepayment Accounts), arise.

 

137

 

(b)           If such Borrower elects to make any payments
into a Prepayment Account then such amounts shall, as appropriate and to the
extent required by Clause 13.3 (Mandatory Reduction of the
Facilities) be applied in prepayment of the applicable Outstandings,
upon maturity of the next maturing Advance(s).

 

(c)           Each Borrower hereby authorises the Facility
Agent to withdraw monies from the Prepayment Account and apply such monies
against prepayments and other amounts which are due under this Clause 12
or, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing and has been
notified to the Facility Agent by the Parent or a Borrower, against any amount
due and payable under the Finance Documents.

 

13.9         Cancellation of Letters of Credit

 

Each C Borrower may give
the Facility Agent not less than one Business Day’s prior notice of its
intention to procure that any L/C Issuer’s liability under any Letter of Credit
is reduced to zero (whereupon it shall do so) provided such C Borrower has
provided evidence in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the L/C
Issuer that the beneficiary under such Letter of Credit has consented to the
cancellation of such Letter of Credit.

 

13.10       Notice of Cancellation or Prepayment

 

Any notice of
cancellation and/or prepayment given by a Borrower pursuant to this
Clause 13 shall be irrevocable, shall specify the date upon which such
cancellation or prepayment is to be made and the amount of such cancellation or
prepayment.

 

13.11       Notice of Removal of a Bank or L/C Issuer

 

If:

 

(a)           any sum payable to any Bank or L/C Issuer by
an Obligor is required to be increased pursuant to Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up); or

 

(b)           any Bank or L/C Issuer claims indemnification
from a Borrower under Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
or Clause 16.1 (Increased Costs),

 

the Parent may, whilst
such circumstance continues, give the Facility Agent at least ten Business Days
notice (which notice shall be irrevocable) of its intention (a) if such
circumstance relates to a Bank to cancel, repay and/or provide Cash Collateral
in respect of the Commitment of such Bank or (b) if such circumstance relates
to an L/C Issuer, to procure the cancellation of or provide Cash
Collateral in respect of such L/C Issuer’s outstanding Letters of Credit.

 

13.12       Removal of a Bank or L/C Issuer

 

On the day the notice
referred to in Clause 13.11 (Notice of Removal of a
Bank or L/C Issuer) expires:

 

(a)           (if such circumstance relates to a Bank) the
relevant C Borrower shall repay such Bank’s portion of each relevant Advance
and the relevant C Borrower

 

138

 

shall procure either that such Bank’s L/C Proportion of each relevant
Letter of Credit be reduced to zero (by reduction of the amount of such Letter
of Credit in an amount equal to such Bank’s L/C Proportion) or that Cash
Collateral be provided in an amount equal to such Bank’s L/C Proportion of such
Letter of Credit; and

 

(b)           (if such circumstance relates to an L/C
Issuer) the relevant C Borrower shall procure that the relevant L/C Issuer’s
liability under any Letter of Credit issued by it shall be either reduced to
zero or otherwise secured by the relevant C Borrower providing Cash Collateral
in an amount equal to the amount of such L/C Issuer’s maximum actual and
contingent liabilities under such Letter of Credit.

 

13.13       No Further Availability

 

A Bank for whose account
a repayment is to be made under Clause 13.12 (Removal of a
Bank or L/C Issuer) shall not be obliged to participate in the
making of Advances or any Letter of Credit on or after the date upon which the
Facility Agent receives the relevant C Borrower’s notice of its intention to
procure the repayment of such Bank’s share of the Outstandings, and such Bank’s
Commitment shall be reduced to zero.

 

13.14       No Other Repayments or Cancellation

 

The Borrowers shall not
repay or cancel all or any part of the Outstandings except at the times and in
the manner expressly provided for in this Agreement.

 

13.15       Replacement of L/C Issuer

 

The Parent may, on giving
not less than ten (10) Business Days notice to the Facility Agent, request the
appointment of another Bank to act as L/C Issuer on the terms and conditions
set out herein.

 

13.16       Prepayment of Advances by Australian Borrower

 

The provisions of
paragraph (a) of Clause 11 (Repayment of Advances)
apply with all changes necessary to effect, and resulting from, prepayments
under the relevant Facility by an Australian Borrower under this
Clause 12.

 

14.          TAXES

 

14.1         Tax Gross-up

 

(a)           Save to the extent required under any
applicable law, all payments to be made by an Obligor to any Finance Party
hereunder or under the Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and
without deduction or withholding for or on account of tax.  Except as provided by Clause 14.6 (US Filings), if any Obligor is required to deduct or
withhold any Relevant Tax, or an amount for or on account of any Relevant Tax
from any payment made hereunder or under the Finance Documents to any Finance
Party the sum payable by such Obligor (in respect of which such deduction or
withholding is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary
to ensure that such Finance Party receives a sum net of any deduction or
withholding (including

 

139

 

deductions or withholdings applicable to any additional amounts paid
under this Clause 14.1) equal to the sum which it would have received had
no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made provided that
this Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
shall not apply to the extent (i) that such deduction or withholding would
not have arisen if the relevant Finance Party had complied with its obligations
under, or (ii) as otherwise set out in, in each case, Clause 14.3 (Banks’ Tax Status) or Clause 14.5 (Double
Taxation Relief) as the case may be.

 

(b)           This Clause 14.1 shall not apply to any
amounts that the Australian Borrower or any Australian Obligor is obliged to
deduct as a result or by reason of a Bank’s or Finance Party’s failure to
comply with its obligations in Subdivision 12-E of Schedule 1 to the
Australian Taxation Administration Act of 1953.

 

14.2         Tax Indemnity

 

Without prejudice to
Clause 14.1
(Tax Gross-ups) and except as provided by
Clause 14.6
(US Filings), if, by reason of any change
after the date hereof in law or in its interpretation or administration
(including, without limitation, the introduction of legislation, any change in
judicial interpretation, any change in an applicable Double Taxation Treaty or
any change in the published practice of a relevant tax authority), any Finance
Party is required to make any payment of or on account of a Relevant Tax on or
in relation to any sum received or receivable hereunder or under the Finance
Documents or if any liability in respect of any such payment is asserted,
imposed, levied or assessed against any Finance Party, the Parent shall, upon
demand of the Facility Agent, promptly indemnify or cause to be indemnified the
Finance Party which suffers a loss or liability as a result against such
payment or liability, together with any interest, penalties, costs and expenses
payable or incurred in connection therewith provided that:

 

(a)           this Clause 14.2 (Tax
Indemnity) shall not apply in respect of any Relevant Tax, interest,
penalties, costs or expenses of a Finance Party which would not have arisen or
been incurred but for the reasonably avoidable delay or the default of such
Finance Party;

 

(b)           this Clause 14.2 (Tax
Indemnity) shall not apply to the extent that such Relevant Tax,
interest, penalties, costs or expenses:

 

(i)            would not have arisen if the relevant Finance
Party was and continued to be a Qualifying Bank and had complied with its
obligations under Clause 14.3 (Banks’ Tax Status)
save, in each case, where such Relevant Tax, interest, penalties, costs or
expenses arise as a result of any change after the date hereof in law or in its
interpretation or administration (including, without limitation, the
introduction of legislation, any change in judicial interpretation, any change
in an applicable Double Taxation Treaty or any change in the published practice
of a relevant tax authority);

 

(ii)           would not have arisen if the relevant Finance
Party had complied with its obligations under Clause 14.5 (Double Taxation Relief); or

 

140

 

(iii)          is compensated for by an increased payment
under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up),
or it would have been had the provisions of Clause 14.3 (Banks’ Tax Status) not applied.

 

14.3         Banks’ Tax Status

 

(a)           Each Bank and each Fee Recipient certifies to
the Facility Agent and the Parent (on the date hereof or, in the case of a Bank
or Fee Recipient which becomes a party hereto pursuant to a transfer or
assignment, on the date on which the relevant transfer or assignment becomes
effective) that it is a Qualifying Bank and each Bank and each Fee Recipient
shall promptly notify the Facility Agent if there is any change in its position
from that set out above.  Upon receipt of
any such notification from a Bank or Fee Recipient the Facility Agent shall
promptly notify the Parent thereof.

 

(b)           Subject to Clause 14.3(e) (Banks’ Tax Status), if any Bank or Fee Recipient is not or
ceases to be a Qualifying Bank or does not comply with or perform the
formalities required to be a Qualifying Bank (including without limitation
completing and submitting any form or other document required for the purpose
of ensuring the application of a Double Taxation Treaty or applicable tax laws
or regulations) (except, in each case, by reason of any change after the date
the Bank or Fee Recipient becomes a party to this Agreement in law or in its
interpretation or administration including, without limitation, the
introduction of legislation, any change in judicial interpretation, any change
in an applicable double tax treaty or any change in the published practice of a
relevant tax authority) the Obligor shall not be liable pursuant to this
Clause 14 to pay with respect to the Bank or Fee Recipient any amount
greater than the amount which the Obligor would have been liable to pay
pursuant to this Clause 14 with respect to that Bank or Fee Recipient if
that Bank or Fee Recipient had been, or had not ceased to be on that date, a
Qualifying Bank and had complied with or had performed the formalities required
to be a Qualifying Bank (including without limitation completing and submitting
any form or other document required for the purpose of ensuring the application
of a Double Taxation Treaty or applicable tax laws or regulations).

 

(c)           If at the date a Guarantor makes a payment
hereunder or under the Finance Documents on behalf of a Borrower any deduction
or withholding for or on account of tax imposed in respect of such payment
would have been excluded from the gross-up at Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up) or the indemnity at Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) under this Agreement if such payment were
made by such Borrower, then, to that extent, the applicable gross-up under
Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up) or the indemnity at
Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) in respect of such
payment by such Guarantor shall exclude so much of the amount (or, if
applicable, the currency equivalent amount) of deduction or withholding for or
on account of tax that would have been excluded had the payment been made by
such Borrower.

 

(d)           A Swiss Obligor shall not be required to make
any increased payments under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
for a tax deduction, and the Parent shall not be obliged to make any payments
or cause any payments to be made under Clause 14.2 (Tax
Indemnity), in each case, which is due to the fact that there

 

141

 

are more than ten Banks which are not Qualifying Banks in relation to
such Swiss Obligor under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, it is the
Banks’ sole responsibility to make sure that there are not more than ten Banks
(including any sub-participants) at any time which are not Qualifying Banks in
relation to any Swiss Obligor under this Agreement.

 

(e)           No Swiss Obligor shall be indebted at any
time to more than 20 lenders (including the Banks under this Agreement), which
are not Qualifying Banks.

 

14.4         Claims by Banks

 

A Bank intending to make
a claim pursuant to Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
shall notify the Facility Agent of the event giving rise to the claim,
whereupon the Facility Agent shall notify the Parent thereof.

 

14.5         Double Taxation Relief

 

If, and to the extent
that, the effect of Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
or Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
can be mitigated by virtue of the provisions of any applicable Double Taxation
Treaty or any applicable tax law (whether by a claim to repayment of any taxes
referred to in Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
or Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
or otherwise) the relevant Finance Party agrees, provided that, and for so long
as, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to co-operate with the
Parent with a view to completing and submitting any forms required for the
purpose of ensuring the application of such Double Taxation Treaty or
applicable tax law so far as relevant, provided that no Finance Party shall be
required pursuant to this Clause 14.5 to complete or co-operate in
completing any form unless the Parent or the relevant Borrower reasonably
requests it to do so.

 

14.6         US Filings

 

(a)           Each Finance Party that is a United States
person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue
Code) shall, on or prior to the date of the execution and delivery of this
Agreement in the case of an original Finance Party and on the date of the
relevant Transfer Certificate pursuant to which it becomes a Finance Party in
the case of any other Finance Party, and from time to time thereafter as
reasonably requested in writing by the Facility Agent (but only so long as such
Finance Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide the Facility Agent with
two properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9 or
any successor or other form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service,
certifying that such Finance Party is not subject to United States backup
withholding tax on payments made pursuant to this Agreement or any other
Finance Document by a US Obligor.

 

(b)           Each Finance Party that is not a United
States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal
Revenue Code) shall, on or prior to the date of the execution and delivery of
this Agreement in the case of an original Finance Party and on the date of the
relevant Transfer Certificate pursuant to which it becomes a Finance Party in
the case of any other Finance Party, and from time to time thereafter as
reasonably requested in writing by the Facility Agent (but only so long as such
Finance Party remains lawfully able to do so):

 

142

 

(i)            provide the Facility Agent with two properly
completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as
appropriate, 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 United States federal withholding tax on payments made pursuant
to this Agreement or any other Finance Document by a US Obligor under an
applicable double taxation agreement, together with such other form or forms,
or any documentation or certification as may be necessary from time to time
after the date hereof to establish the exemption or reduced rate; or

 

(ii)           in the case of a Finance Party claiming the
benefits of the exemption from United States federal withholding tax for
portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, provide
(x) a certificate to the Facility Agent to the effect that and pursuant to
which the Finance Party represents that such Finance Party is not (i) a bank
(as such term is used in Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code),
(ii) a 10-percent shareholder of the relevant Obligor (within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code), or (iii) a controlled
foreign corporation related to the relevant Obligor (as such term is described
in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code), and (y) two properly
completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or any
successor or other forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service certifying
the non-United States person status of such Finance Party and such Finance
Party’s legal entitlement at the date of such certification to an exemption
from United States federal withholding tax with respect to payments made
pursuant to this Agreement or under any other Finance Document by a US Obligor,
together with such other form or forms, documentation or certifications as may
be necessary from time to time to establish this exemption; or

 

(iii)          in the case of any Finance Party that is a
foreign intermediary or foreign flow-through entity for United States federal
income tax purposes, provide the Facility Agent with respect to such Finance
Party, two properly completed and duly executed Internal Revenue Service Forms
W-8IMY or any successor or other forms prescribed by the Internal Revenue
Service and the statement, certificate or other documentary evidence required
to be provided by such Finance Party 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, two forms and/or certificates described in paragraph (i) or
(ii) of this Clause 14.6(a), as applicable, together with such other form
or forms, documentation, statements, certificates or certifications as may be
necessary from time to time to establish the exemption from or, in the case of
paragraph (i) only, the reduced rate of, withholding.

 

(c)           If a Finance Party fails to provide the
Facility Agent with the appropriate Internal Revenue Service form or, if
applicable, the certificate or certification,

 

143

 

each as described above and each being properly completed and duly
executed (other than if such failure is due to a change in law, or in the
interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form
or certificate originally was required to be provided or if such form,
certificate or other document otherwise is not required under
Clauses 14.6(a) or (b))(US Filings),
United States federal withholding tax and United States backup withholding tax,
in each case imposed on any amount paid by the relevant Obligor under this
Agreement or any other Finance Document, shall be considered excluded from the
gross-up at Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
or the indemnity at Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
under this Agreement by reason of such failure unless and until the Finance
Party provides the appropriate Internal Revenue Service form or certificate
that is properly completed and duly executed and establishing a complete
exemption from United States backup withholding tax or a complete exemption
from, or a reduction of, United States federal withholding tax on any amount
paid by the US Obligor under this Agreement or the other Finance Document,
whereupon United States 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 or indemnity for periods governed by
such form and certificate.  If any
Internal Revenue Service form provided by a Finance Party pursuant to this Clause 14.6
(US Filings) at the time such Finance
Party first becomes a Finance Party hereunder or when it first provides such
form indicates a United States federal withholding tax rate in excess of zero
in respect of any amount paid by the US Obligor under this Agreement or the
other Finance Documents, United States federal withholding tax at such rate
shall be considered excluded from the gross-up at Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up) or the indemnity at Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) under this Agreement or the other Finance
Documents unless and until the Finance Party provides the appropriate form
certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon federal withholding tax at the
lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from the gross-up or indemnity
for periods governed by such form; provided, however, that if at the date a
Finance Party transferee under a Transfer Certificate becomes a party to this
Agreement, the Finance Party transferor was entitled to payments under Clauses
14.1 (Tax Gross-up) or 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) in respect of United States federal
withholding tax in connection with any amount paid at such date, then, to that
extent, the applicable gross-up under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
or indemnity under Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity)
shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the
future or other amounts otherwise included therein) an amount of United States
federal withholding tax equal to that applicable with respect to the Finance
Party transferor on such date.  If any
form, certificate or document referred to in this Clause 14.6 (US Filings) requires the disclosure of information, other
than information necessary to compute the Relevant Tax payable and such
information as is required on the date hereof by the Internal Revenue Service
Forms W-9, W-8BEN, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (as applicable) or the related certificate
described above, or other information relating to a Finance Party’s
nationality, identity or residence, that a Finance Party reasonably considers
to be confidential, the Finance Party shall not be obligated to include in such
form, certificate or document such confidential information.

 

144

 

14.7         VAT

 

(a)           Except where otherwise expressly provided,
and without duplication, all amounts set out in, or expressed to be payable
under, a Finance Document by any person to a Finance Party which (in whole or
in part) constitute the consideration for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be
exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, if
VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any person under a
Finance Document, that person shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to
and at the same time as paying the consideration) an amount equal to the amount
of the VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT
invoice to such person).

 

(b)           If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by
any Finance Party (the “Supplier”)
to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”)
under a Finance Document, and any person (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of any Finance
Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the
Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of
that consideration), such person shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to
and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of
such VAT.  The Recipient shall promptly
pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment from the
relevant Tax authority which it reasonably determines relates to the VAT
chargeable on that supply.

 

(c)           If any party is required under any Finance
Document to reimburse costs and expenses incurred by any other party, such
reimbursement shall, to the extent that it relates to any amount in respect of
VAT incurred by such other party, be made only in respect of the portion of
such amount that is not recoverable by way of set-off against or repayment by
the relevant Governmental Authority to which such VAT has been paid.

 

14.8         Tax Forms

 

For the avoidance of
doubt, the Facility Agent shall following a request by the Parent promptly
deliver to the Parent all forms, documentation, statements, certificates or
certifications received by it from any Finance Party pursuant to any Finance
Document in respect of any Relevant Tax.

 

15.          TAX RECEIPTS

 

15.1         Notification of Requirement to Deduct Tax

 

If, at any time, an
Obligor is required by law to make any deduction or withholding from any sum
payable by it hereunder or under the Finance Documents (or if thereafter there
is any change in the rates at which or the manner in which such deductions or
withholdings are calculated), such Obligor shall promptly notify the Facility
Agent.

 

145

 

15.2         Evidence of Payment of Tax

 

(a)           If an Obligor makes any payment hereunder or
under the Finance Documents in respect of which it is required to make any
deduction or withholding, it shall pay the full amount required to be deducted
or withheld to the relevant taxation or other authority within the time allowed
for such payment under applicable law and shall, as promptly as possible
thereafter, deliver to the Facility Agent on behalf of the Bank or Banks to
which such payment was made a certified copy of the original official receipt
received by such Obligor (of if such receipt is not available such other
evidence of payment as is reasonably satisfactory to the Facility Agent)
evidencing the payment to such authority of the amounts so required to be
deducted or withheld in respect of that payment or that Bank’s share of such
payment.

 

(b)           If an Obligor fails to pay any Relevant Taxes
or any amount for or on account of any Relevant Taxes when due to the
appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Facility Agent the
required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Obligor shall
indemnify the Facility Agent and the Finance Parties for any incremental taxes,
interest or penalties that may become payable by the Facility Agent or any
Finance Party as a result of any such failure.

 

15.3         Tax Credit Payment

 

(a)           If an additional payment is made under
Clause 14 (Taxes) or Clause 15.2 (Evidence of Payment of Tax) by an Obligor for the benefit of
any Finance Party and such Finance Party, in its sole discretion exercised in
good faith, determines that it has obtained, utilised and retained a credit
against, a relief or remission for, or repayment of, any tax, then, if and to
the extent that such Finance Party, in its sole opinion acting in good faith,
determines that:

 

(i)            such credit, relief, remission or repayment
is in respect of or calculated with reference to the additional payment made
pursuant to Clause 14 (Taxes) or
Clause 15.2 (Evidence of Payment of Tax); and

 

(ii)           (except in relation to repayment of any tax
in respect of which additional amounts have been paid pursuant to
Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)) its tax affairs
for its tax year in respect of which such credit, relief, remission or
repayment was obtained have been finally settled,

 

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, promptly pay to such
Obligor such amount as such Finance Party shall, in its sole opinion acting in
good faith, determine to be the amount which will leave such Finance Party
(after such payment) in no worse after-tax position than it would have been in
had the additional payment in question not been required to be made by such
Obligor.  For the purposes of this
Clause 15.3, each Finance Party agrees to use reasonable endeavours to
obtain any repayment, credit, relief or remission to which it is or may be
entitled.

 

146

 

(b)           An Obligor may, upon written request, require
the Finance Party promptly to produce reasonable evidence (having regard to
Clause 15.4 (Tax and
Other Affairs) below) as to
whether or not the criteria set out in paragraphs (i) and (ii) above are
satisfied.

 

15.4         Tax and Other Affairs

 

No provision of
Clauses 14 (Taxes), 15 (Tax Receipts)
or 18 (Mitigation and other Provisions relating to Taxes
and Increased Costs) shall interfere with the right of any Finance
Party to arrange its tax or any other affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit,
oblige any Finance Party to claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment in
respect of any payment under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up)
in priority to any other credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it
or oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its tax or
other affairs or any computations in respect thereof.

 

16.          INCREASED COSTS

 

16.1         Increased Costs

 

If, by reason of (a) any
change in law or in its interpretation, administration or application and/or
(b) compliance with any request or requirement relating to the maintenance of
capital or any other request from or requirement of any central bank or other
fiscal, monetary or other authority, in either case, made after the date of
this Agreement or (if later) the date on which the relevant person becomes
party hereto:

 

(a)           a Bank, L/C Issuer or any holding company of
such Bank or L/C Issuer is unable to obtain the rate of return on its capital
which it would have been able to obtain but for such Bank’s or L/C Issuer’s entering
into or assuming or maintaining a commitment or performing its obligations
under the Finance Documents or any Letter of Credit;

 

(b)           a Bank, L/C Issuer or any holding company of
such Bank or L/C Issuer incurs a cost as a result of such Bank’s or L/C
Issuer’s entering into or assuming or maintaining a commitment, issuing or
performing its obligations under the Finance Documents or any Letter of Credit;
or

 

(c)           there is any increase in the cost to a Bank,
L/C Issuer or any holding company of such Bank or the L/C Issuer of funding or
maintaining such Bank’s or L/C Issuer’s share of the Advances, any Unpaid
Sum or any Letter of Credit,

 

then the Parent shall,
from time to time on demand of the Facility Agent, promptly pay to the Facility
Agent for the account of that Bank or L/C Issuer amounts sufficient to
compensate that Bank or L/C Issuer or to enable that Bank or L/C Issuer to
compensate its holding company from and against, as the case may be, (i) such
reduction in the rate of return of capital, (ii) such cost or (iii) such
increased cost, provided that no Bank or L/C Issuer shall claim any amount from
the Parent hereunder unless such Bank or L/C Issuer deems the relevant amount
to be material.

 

147

 

16.2         Increased Costs Claims

 

A Bank or L/C Issuer
intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 16.1 (Increased
Costs) shall promptly notify the Parent through the Facility Agent,
and such notice shall certify that (a) one of the events described in this
Clause 16 has occurred and describe in reasonable detail the nature of
such event, (b) the amount of the reduction, cost or increased cost
resulting from such event, and (c) the amount of the compensation payment
it is demanding from the Parent together with a reasonably detailed calculation
thereof.

 

16.3         Exclusions

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing provisions of this Clause 16, no Bank or L/C Issuer shall be
entitled to make any claim under this Clause 16 in respect of:

 

(a)           any tax (and, for the avoidance of doubt,
Clauses 14 (Taxes) and 15 (Tax Receipts) alone shall apply to tax);

 

(b)           any cost, increased cost or liability which
is directly attributable to such Bank or L/C Issuer entering into a commitment
to lend to a third party after the date of this Agreement which is, at the date
such commitment is entered into, in breach of any request or requirement of any
central bank or other fiscal, monetary or banking authority relating to that
Bank or L/C Issuer; or

 

(c)           any cost, increased cost or liability
resulting from the implementation by the applicable authorities having
jurisdiction over such Bank or L/C Issuer or its relevant Facility Office of
specific capital adequacy requirements officially announced prior to the date
of this Agreement to the extent clearly ascertainable from the announcement,
but not more stringent requirements on or after the date of this Agreement; or

 

(d)           any cost, increased cost or liability arising
solely by reason of such Bank’s or L/C Issuer’s unreasonable delay in notifying
the Facility Agent of its right to make a demand under the Clause 16.1 (Increased Costs) after it has become aware of and is able to
ascertain the amount of its claim.

 

17.          ILLEGALITY

 

If the adoption of or any
change in any requirement of law or in the interpretation or application
thereof which occurs after the date of this Agreement shall make it unlawful,
for a Bank or L/C Issuer to make, fund, issue, participate in or allow to
remain outstanding all or part of its share of the Advances or Letters of
Credit, then that Bank or L/C Issuer shall, promptly after becoming aware of
the same, deliver to the Parent through the Facility Agent a notice to that
effect (which notice shall be withdrawn upon such circumstances ceasing to
exist) and:

 

(a)           such Bank or L/C Issuer shall not thereafter
be obliged to participate in any Advance or Letter of Credit until such time as
it shall no longer be unlawful for such Bank or L/C Issuer to do so and the
amount of its Total Commitments shall be immediately be cancelled and reduced
to zero; and

 

148

 

(b)           if the Facility Agent on behalf of such Bank
or L/C Issuer so requires, the Parent shall procure that each C Borrower shall:

 

(i)            repay, as soon as practicable and, in any
case, within five days, such Bank’s share of any outstanding Advances together
with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts owing to such Bank
hereunder; and

 

(ii)           ensure that, as soon as practicable and, in
any case, within 5 days, the liabilities of such Bank or L/C Issuer under or in
respect of each Letter of Credit are reduced to zero or otherwise secured by
providing Cash Collateral in an amount equal to such Bank’s L/C Proportion of
such Letters of Credit or such L/C Issuer’s maximum actual and contingent liabilities
under such Letter Credit,

 

provided that, in
relation to the repayment of any outstanding Advances, if it is lawful for a
Bank to allow to remain outstanding all or part of its share of the Advances
until the last day of the then current Term applicable thereto, then the Parent
shall not be obliged to procure the repayment of such Advances until the last
day of such Term

 

18.          MITIGATION AND OTHER
PROVISIONS RELATING TO TAXES AND INCREASED COSTS

 

18.1         Mitigation

 

If, in respect of any
Finance Party, circumstances exist which would or would upon the giving of
notice result in:

 

(a)           a restriction upon its ability to participate
in or have any right or obligation under this Agreement in respect of a Letter
of Credit;

 

(b)           any amount being payable to it or for its
account pursuant to Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up);

 

(c)           a claim for indemnification pursuant to
Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) or
Clause 16.1 (Increased Costs); or

 

(d)           the reduction of its Available Commitment to
zero or any repayment to be made pursuant to Clause 17 (Illegality),

 

then, without in any way
limiting, reducing or otherwise qualifying the rights of such Finance Party or
the obligations of the Obligors under any of the Clauses referred to in the
paragraphs above, such Finance Party (if it is not the Facility Agent) shall
(a) promptly upon becoming aware of such circumstances (save to the extent
existing on the date of this Agreement) notify the Facility Agent thereof and
(b) in consultation with the Facility Agent and the Parent and to the extent
that it can do so lawfully and without prejudice to its own position, take such
steps as may reasonably be available to it and acceptable to the Parent
(including, in the case of a Bank or the Facility Agent, a transfer of its
rights and obligations under the Finance Documents to another affiliate or a
relevant Facility Office or (in the event that the relevant circumstances arise
after the date such Finance Party becomes party to this

 

149

 

Agreement) the transfer
of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder to another financial
institution acceptable to the Parent and willing to participate in the
Facilities) to mitigate the effects of such circumstances, provided that such
Finance Party shall be under no obligation to take any such action if, in the
opinion of such Finance Party acting in good faith, to do so might reasonably
be expected to have any adverse effect upon its business, operations or
financial condition (other than any minor costs and expenses of an
administrative nature) or be contrary to any relevant credit or other
approvals, including internal approvals, required by any relevant affiliate or
branch of such Finance Party.

 

18.2         Removal of Affected Bank

 

If, in the circumstances described
in Clause 18.1 (Mitigation), a
Bank has failed to take mitigating action in accordance with that Clause, the
Parent shall have the right, for so long as such circumstances exist, (i) to
seek one or more substitute Bank(s) reasonably satisfactory to the Parent to
take a transfer of such Bank’s participation in the Facilities in accordance
with Clause 36 (Assignments and Transfers),
or (ii) upon at least four Business Days, irrevocable notice to the Facility
Agent, to prepay such Bank’s portion of the relevant Outstandings.  In the case of a prepayment of an affected
Advance, the amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on the
date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to such date on the
amount prepaid.  In the case of each of
the substitution of a Bank and of the prepayment of an affected Advance, the
Parent shall first pay the affected Bank any additional amounts owing to such
Bank prior to such substitution or prepayment.

 

18.3         Change in Facility Office

 

If (other than pursuant
to Clause 18.1 (Mitigation)) a
Finance Party changes its Facility Office and the effect of the change, as of
the date of the change, would be to cause any Obligor to become obliged to pay
any additional amount under Clause 14 (Taxes) or 16 (Increased Costs), such Obligor shall not be obliged to pay
such additional amount.

 

19.          REPRESENTATIONS

conditions or things referred to in the qualifications to the Legal Opinions
and subject to applicable bankruptcy or insolvency laws or other similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights or remedies generally and general principles of
equity) in order (a) to enable it lawfully to enter into, exercise its rights

Under the laws of its
jurisdiction of incorporation in force at the date hereof or, in the case of an
Obligor acceding after the date of this Agreement, as at the date of the

conservator, custodian, trustee or similar officer of it or of any or all of
its assets or revenues.

misleading in any material respect in the context of the Facilities.

expressed in the Information Memorandum on the part of the Parent are honestly
held or made after careful consideration and, to the best of the Parent’s

Obligor that is an Orphan Financeco or an Orphan SPV has been omitted that

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

far as it is aware, will not be revoked or otherwise terminated except where
such failure to obtain, non-compliance, revocation or termination would not

any of its subsidiaries with respect to taxes which are reasonably likely to be

Material Adverse Effect.

intangible assets (including, without limitation, receivables, contract rights,

equivalent security interests) over substantially all its other assets, in each
case except to the extent that such assets are the subject of a Permitted Securitisation or a Permitted
Encumbrance referred to in paragraphs (b),(m) or (n) of the definition thereof,
but subject to Clause 21.16(c) (Group Acceding Guarantors);

the Facility Agent has confirmed that there is a legal impediment to such
Additional Borrower or Additional Guarantor providing such security and
provided that (i) no security shall be required (or be required to be
registered or otherwise perfected) or the form of such security (as
appropriate) shall be modified, to the extent required to avoid (a) any
violation of applicable law, (b) liability of any of the officers, directors or
shareholders of such person, any of its holding companies or subsidiaries, (c)
violation of the provisions of any joint venture arrangement governing or
binding on such subsidiary or its holding companies or subsidiaries, (d)

material costs (including, without limitation, any taxes, fees, charges, duties
or expenses)  which the Parent has
demonstrated to the Security Agent in reasonable detail would be excessive in
relation to the benefits that would be conferred by the granting of such
security and are likely to be incurred or (f) any material risk of the
foregoing and provided, further, that any such security from a Designated
Obligor shall be provided in support of such Designated Obligor’s obligations
under the applicable Designated Obligor Intercompany Loan Agreement, (ii) the
Security Documents shall be on terms consistent with the Security Principles
(except to the extent that local law is contrary thereto) and (iii) subject to

Clause 21.16(b) in respect of an Additional Borrower or Additional
Guarantor listed in Schedule 13 (Additional Guarantors and
Security) and the assets of such
Additional Borrower or Additional Guarantor on the date hereof if such
Additional Borrower or Additional Guarantor has

Documents listed next to its name in Schedule 13 (Additional
Guarantors and Security) in the agreed form or other documents in

Designated Obligor are the subject of a Permitted Securitisation or a Permitted
Encumbrance referred to in paragraphs (b) or (m) of the definition thereof,
such Additional Guarantor or Designated Obligor, as applicable, shall grant in
favour of the Finance Parties, in form and substance satisfactory to the
Security Agent (acting reasonably):

 

(i)            first ranking security over such assets to
the extent that such assets cease at any time to be the subject of any

sub-paragraph (a), in the case of a Permitted Encumbrance referred to in

Parties (other than as specified in the Legal Opinions).  In particular, such Obligor shall notify the
Security Agent (or, in respect of any security to be granted under the

into account the captions reflected in section 266 (2) A, B and C of the German
Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch) less the sum
of:

 

(A)          the
Relevant German Obligor’s, or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such
Relevant German Obligor’s general partner’s, liabilities (the calculation of
which shall take into account the captions reflected in section 266 (3) B, C
and D of the German Commercial Code);

 

(B)           the
registered share capital (Stammkapital)
of the Relevant German Obligor or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such
Relevant German Obligor’s general partner’s registered share capital; and

 

(C)           the
amount of any intercompany loan or loans granted by the Relevant German Obligor
to its parent or sister companies.

 

(iii)          For
the purpose of the calculation of the enforceable amount, the Relevant German
Obligor, or in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German Obligor’s
general partner will, within 30 (thirty) Business Days after the Facility Agent
has made a demand for payment under the guarantee or indemnity pursuant to
Clause 24 (Guarantee and Indemnity), deliver to the
Facility Agent an unaudited up-to-date balance sheet of the Relevant German
Obligor, and, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German
Obligor’s general partner, drawn up by its auditors, which shows the value of
the net assets.  The balance sheet and
determination of net assets shall be prepared in accordance with accounting
principles pursuant to the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)
and be based on the same principles that were applied when establishing the
immediately preceding year’s balance sheet.

 

(iv)          If
the Relevant German Obligor fails to deliver a copy of its balance sheet or, in
the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German Obligor’s general
partner’s balance sheet, in accordance with paragraph (iii), the Facility Agent
shall be entitled to enforce the guarantee or indemnity without
limitation.  Following such enforcement,
the Facility Agent agrees to release proceeds from the enforcement of the
guarantee or indemnity if and to the extent that it is a guarantee or indemnity
which secures liabilities of any shareholder of such Relevant German Obligor or
any such shareholder’s affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen)
within the meaning of section 15 of the German Stock Corporation Act
(other than such Relevant German Obligor’s subsidiaries) and that such
enforcement or the application of proceeds from such enforcement towards the
secured obligations would otherwise lead to the situation that the Relevant
German Obligor, or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German
Obligor’s general partner, would not have sufficient net assets, as determined
in accordance with a balance sheet drawn up as foreseen

 

190

 

under the paragraph (iii)
above, to maintain its registered share capital (Stammkapital).

 

(v)           For
the purposes of the calculation of the enforceable amount specified in
paragraph (ii) above and the amount to be released specified in paragraph (ii)
above, the following balance sheet items shall be adjusted as follows:

 

(A)          the
amount of any increase of registered share capital out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) and, in the case
of a GmbH & Co. KG, the registered share capital of the general partner
after the date hereof that has been effected without the prior written consent
of the Facility Agent shall be deducted from the registered share capital and,
in the case of GmbH & Co. KG, the deduction shall take place from the
registered share capital of the general partner; and

 

(B)           loans
and other contractual obligations incurred in violation of the provisions of
the Finance Documents to which the Relevant German Obligor is a party, shall be
disregarded.

 

(vi)          Furthermore,
if and to the extent legally permissible each such Relevant German Obligor, or,
in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German Obligor’s general
partner, shall, in a situation where it does not have sufficient net assets to
maintain its registered share capital and where a Finance Party would (but for
this Clause 24.10) be entitled and is seeking to enforce the guarantee or
indemnity pursuant to Clause 24 (Guarantee and Indemnity),
realise any and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a
book value (Buchwert) which is significantly lower
than the realisable market value of such assets and to the extent such assets
are not necessary for the Relevant German Obligor’s, or, in the case of a GmbH
& Co. KG, such Relevant German Obligor’s general partner’s, business or
operations (nicht betriebsnotwendig).

 

(vii)         The
limitations set out in this Clause 24.10 shall not apply to a guarantee or
indemnity granted by a Relevant German Obligor in relation to any amounts
borrowed under this Agreement to the extent the proceeds of such borrowing are
on-lent to it or any of its subsidiaries from time to time and have not been
repaid at the time of the enforcement of the guarantee or indemnity.

 

(b)           Any guarantee or indemnity shall further not
be enforced to the extent that the Relevant German Obligor or, in the case of a
GmbH & Co. KG, such Relevant German Obligor’s general partner, demonstrates
in reasonable detail that such enforcement would lead to a breach of the duty
of care owing by the relevant shareholders vis-à-vis the respective company (Gebot der Rücksichtnahme auf die Eigenbelange der Gesellschaft)
and of the prohibition of insolvency-causing intervention (Verbot des
existenzvernichtenden Eingriffs), as developed by the recent
jurisdiction (in particular BGH II ZR 178/99 Bremer “Vulkan”, BGH ZR 196/00 and
BGH II ZR 300/00 “KBV”), of the

 

191

 

Federal Supreme Court (Bundesgerichtshof),
caused for example, as far as this would be within the scope of the cited court
rulings, if the entering into the guarantee or indemnity and its enforcement
results in the illiquidity (Zahlungsunfähigkeit)
of the Relevant German Obligor or, in the case of a GmbH & Co. KG, such
Relevant German Obligor’s general partner. 
The Facility Agent shall be obliged to retransfer proceeds from such
enforcement to the extent that the Relevant German Obligor demonstrates in
reasonable detail that the enforcement of this Agreement violated the rules of
the cited Federal Supreme Court rulings. 
Any claim for damages (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any claim
relating to unjust enrichment) by the relevant German Obligor or the Borrowers
against the Banks, the Facility Agent, the Global Coordinator and/or the
Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners in connection with a potential existence
threatening intrusion shall be excluded.

 

(c)           The Facility Agent shall be obliged to
retransfer proceeds from such enforcement if any of the guarantee or indemnity
has been enforced even though the enforcement was excluded in accordance with this
paragraph (c).

guarantee of such Belgian Guarantor under Clause 24 will be reduced pro rata,
without however being lower than 90% of its Net Assets.

patrimoniale) or expose the directors of the Italian Guarantor to
liability under article 2392 of the Italian Civil Code (responsabilità verso la società); and

arising under any Security Document granted in accordance with the terms set
out in Schedule 18 (Security Principles)
by any Guarantor incorporated in Spain shall not extend to any obligation:

24.16       Swiss Guarantors

 

(a)           If and to the extent that the obligations of
each Guarantor incorporated under the laws of Switzerland (the “Swiss Guarantor”) under this Clause 24
(Guarantee and Indemnity) are for
the exclusive benefit of any of such Swiss Guarantor’s affiliates (other than
such Swiss Guarantor’s direct or indirect subsidiaries):

 

(i)            the aggregate obligations of any Swiss
Guarantor under the Swiss Guarantee shall be limited to the Swiss Available
Amount at the time any Swiss Guarantor makes a payment under this Clause 24 (Guarantee and Indemnity) (provided such limitation is still
a legal requirement under Swiss law at that time). If and to the extent a Swiss
Guarantor, when requested to make any payment under the Swiss Guarantee, has
one or more outstanding inter-company loans (except for inter-company loans
extended to its own direct or indirect subsidiaries), such inter-company
loan(s), including any accrued interest thereon, shall be deducted from the
Swiss Available Amount, provided that the Facility Agent has approved such
inter company loan

 

194

 

when entered into, it being understood that the Facility Agent herewith
approves the inter-company loan to Hertz Finance Centre plc which the Swiss
Borrower shall grant on the Closing Date;

 

(ii)           immediately after having been requested to
make a Swiss Guarantee Payment, each Swiss Guarantor shall (i) provide the
Facility Agent, within 30 Business Days from being requested to make the Swiss
Guarantee Payment, with (1) an interim audited balance sheet prepared by the
statutory auditors of the applicable Swiss Guarantor, (2) the determination of
the Swiss Available Amount based on such interim audited balance sheet as computed
by the statutory auditors and (3) a confirmation from the statutory auditors
that the Swiss Available Amount is the maximum amount which can be paid by the
Swiss Guarantor under the Swiss Guarantee without breaching the provisions of
Swiss corporate law, which are aimed at protecting the share capital and legal
reserves, and (ii) upon receipt of the confirmation referred to in the
preceding sentence under (3) and after having taken all actions required
pursuant to paragraph (d) below, pay, subject to paragraph (c) below, the
lesser of (A) such Swiss Guarantee Payment in full (which shall include any
gross-up or other indemnification payment to the extent provided in paragraph (c) below) and (B) the Swiss Available Amount (less, to the
extent required, any withholding tax under the Swiss Federal Act on Withholding
Tax of October 13, 1965 (the “Swiss
Withholding Tax”));

 

(iii)          if so required under Swiss law (including
double tax treaties to which Switzerland is a party) at the time it is required
to make a payment under the Swiss Guarantee, the applicable Swiss Guarantor (1)
may deduct, in its sole discretion, the Swiss Withholding Tax at the rate of 35
per cent. (or such other rate as may be in force at such time) from any payment
under the Swiss Guarantee, (2) may pay the Swiss Withholding Tax to the Swiss
Federal Tax Administration and (3) shall notify and provide evidence to the
Facility Agent that the Swiss Withholding Tax has been paid to the Swiss
Federal Tax Administration.  To the
extent the Swiss Guarantee Payment due is less than the Swiss Available Amount,
the applicable Swiss Guarantor shall be required to gross-up, indemnify or
otherwise hold harmless the Finance Parties for the deduction of the Swiss
Withholding Tax, it being understood that at no time shall the Swiss Guarantee
Payment (including any gross-up or indemnification payment pursuant to this
paragraph (c) and including any Swiss Withholding Tax levied thereon) exceed
the Swiss Available Amount.  To the
extent the Swiss Guarantee Payment exceeds the Swiss Available Amount,
Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up) shall not be
applicable.  The applicable Swiss
Guarantor shall use its best efforts to ensure that any person which is, as a
result of a payment under the Swiss Guarantee, entitled to a full or partial
refund of the Swiss Withholding Tax, shall as soon as possible after the
deduction of the Swiss Withholding Tax (i) request a refund of the Swiss
Withholding Tax under any applicable law (including double tax treaties) and
(ii) pay to the Finance Parties upon receipt any

 

195

 

amount so refunded.  The
obligations under the Finance Documents will only be considered as discharged
to the extent of the effective payment received by the Finance Parties under
the Swiss Guarantee.  This subsection (c)
is without prejudice to the gross-up or indemnification obligations of any
Guarantor other that the Swiss Guarantors; and

 

(iv)          each Swiss Guarantor shall use reasonable
efforts to take and cause to be taken all and any other action, including the
passing of any shareholders’ resolutions to approve any Swiss Guarantee Payment
under the Swiss Guarantee, which may be required as a matter of Swiss mandatory
law or standard business practice as existing at the time it is required to
make a Swiss Guarantee Payment under the Swiss Guarantee in order to allow for
a prompt payment of the Swiss Guarantee Payment or Swiss Available Amount, as
applicable, it being understood that in the event where the Swiss Guarantor demonstrates
in reasonable detail that such payment would result in the Swiss Guarantor
being unable to meet all of its other current obligations as they come due
(technical insolvency), the Security Agent will differ the enforcement of the
Swiss Guarantee Payment or Swiss Available Amount until such time when the
Swiss Guarantor is in a position to pay such amount without becoming
technically insolvent. The decision of the Security Agent to defer the
enforcement of the Swiss Guarantee Payment or the Swiss Available Amount, as
applicable, is without prejudice to the Swiss Guarantor’s obligation to take
all necessary action to promptly render such payment possible without
simultaneously bringing the Swiss Guarantor in a state of technical insolvency.

 

(b)           For the purposes of this Clause 24.16:

 

(i)            “Swiss
Guarantee” means any guarantee given by a Swiss Guarantor under
Clause 24.16 (Guarantee and Indemnity).

 

(ii)           “Swiss
Guarantee Payment” means a payment which a Swiss Guarantor has been
requested to make under the Swiss Guarantee.

 

(iii)          Swiss Available Amount” means the maximum amount of a Swiss
Guarantor’s profits and reserves available for distribution, in each case in
accordance with, without limitation, articles 671 para. 1 to 3 and 675 para. 2
of the Swiss Code of Obligations.

 

24.17       Dutch Guarantors

 

The obligations of any
Guarantor incorporated under the laws of The Netherlands under or pursuant to
Clause 24 (Guarantee and Indemnity) shall exclude
and shall not be or be construed as any guarantee, indemnity or security, to
the extent that this would:

 

(a)           constitute unlawful financial assistance
within the meaning of Article 2:98c or 2:207c of The Netherlands Civil Code, as
relevant; or

 

196

 

(b)           be deemed “ultra vires”
within the meaning of Article 2:7 of The Netherlands Civil Code.

 

24.18       German Confirmation

 

(a)           For the purposes of providing evidence to the
German tax authorities of the absence of any detrimental recourse situation in
connection with the tax circulars issued by the German Federal Ministry of
Finance (Bundesfinanzministerium) on 15 July 2004
(IV A2 — S2742a — 20/04) and on 22 July 2005 (IV B7 — S2742a — 31/05) in
relation to section 8a of the German Corporation Tax Act, the Security Agent
agrees (for itself and on behalf of the Banks) to deliver to the Parent (for
itself and on behalf of the other Borrowers) no later than 30 Business Days
after the Closing Date, in each case, without prior request by the Borrowers,
no later than 30 Business Days after this underlying Agreement or the security
granted under or in connection therewith have been altered or amended, and, in
any event, on each anniversary of the Closing Date (or, if such anniversary
date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day), a Bank
Certificate.

 

(b)           The delivery of a Bank Certificate shall not
prejudice the rights of the Security Agent or the Banks under this Agreement or
any other Finance Document.

 

(c)           Any Bank Certificate delivered under this
Agreement: (i) is given for the purpose of delivery to the competent tax
authorities of the Borrowers to assist the Borrowers in the administration of
their tax affairs and not for any other purpose, (ii) does not guarantee the
achievement of a specific result or conclusion for German tax purposes, (iii)
is addressed to and is solely for the benefit of the Borrowers in relation to
this Agreement and (iv) does not create third party rights of any kind.

 

(d)           Neither the Security Agent nor any Bank shall
be liable as a result of the delivery of a Bank Certificate.  No error or omission in a Bank Certificate
shall constitute a release of any Security Interest.

 

(e)           The Security Agent and the Banks agree (at
the cost of Parent) to provide any additional information in relation to the
security granted under or in connection with this Agreement (available to the
Security Agent or such Bank) reasonably requested by a Borrower for the
purposes of the completion by that Borrower of its submissions to any tax
authority asserting jurisdiction over it as soon as reasonably practicable
following such request.

 

(f)            If, after the Closing Date, the German tax
administration requires submission of a standard form of the purpose of
providing evidence to the German tax authorities of the absence of any
detrimental recourse situation or the Parent determines on the basis of a
specific request of a German tax inspector or a published decree of the German
tax administration with respect to section 8a German Corporation Tax Act that
the German tax authorities require an amended bank certificate, then the
Security Agent and each Bank agree to use such form instead of the Bank
Certificate as set out in Schedule 19 (Form of Bank Certificate)
provided, however, that the acceptance of such standard form shall be subject
to the approval of the Security Agent and the relevant

 

197

 

bank (as the case may be) (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed), if such standard form differs substantially from the form of Bank
Certificate set out in Schedule 19 (Form of Bank Certificate).

 

For the avoidance of
doubt:

 

(i)            None of the Security Agent nor any Bank shall
be obliged to disclose to any other person any confidential information
regarding its business or any other information relating to its tax affairs or
tax computations (including, without limitation, its tax returns or its
calculations) as a result of the operation of this Clause 24.18.

 

(ii)           None of the Security Agent nor any Bank shall
be obliged to deliver any information pursuant to a request under this
Clause 24.18 if, by doing so, it would contravene the terms of any
applicable law or any notice, direction or requirement or any governmental or
regulatory authority (whether or not having the force of law).  The Borrowers may disclose the existence and
content of a Bank Certificate to its professional advisers, its respective
affiliates, as required by applicable law or regulate and to any tax,
regulatory or other governmental authority asserting jurisdiction over it.

 

(g)           For the purposes of this Clause 24.18, a “Bank Certificate” means a duly completed
bank certificate in the form set out in Part 1 of Schedule 19 (Form of Bank Certificate).

 

24.19       Other Guarantors

 

(a)           In relation to any member of the Group or
other person which becomes a Guarantor after the date of this Agreement, the
obligations of such Additional Guarantor under this Clause 24 (Guarantee and Indemnity) are subject to any limitation set
out in the Guarantor Accession Memorandum applicable to that Guarantor.

 

(b)           If, after the date hereof, there is a change
in US tax law, regulation or administrative practice the result of which is
that the obligations of the Parent under Clause 24.1 (Guarantee
and Indemnity) create a material risk that the earnings and profits
of any or all of the non-US subsidiaries of the Parent must be included in
income by the Parent or the US federal consolidated tax group which includes
the Parent or the Target as a member pursuant to Section 956 of the Internal
Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder, the Parent shall use its
commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate such risk, provided that, if such
risk cannot be so mitigated, the Facility Agent shall consent to modify or
extinguish the obligations of the Parent under Clause 24.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity) to the extent necessary (and only
to such extent) to give effect to such changes thereto as may be necessary to
eliminate such risk or make it immaterial.

 

198

 

25.          COMMITMENT COMMISSION AND
FEES

 

25.1         Commitment Commission

 

(a)           The Parent shall pay or procure payment (to
the extent not already paid) to the Facility Agent for account of each Bank of
a commitment commission on the amount of such Bank’s Available Commitment in
relation to each Facility from day-to-day commencing on the Closing Date and
ending on the last day of the Availability Period in relation thereto, such
commitment commission to be calculated at the rate of:

 

(i)            0.35 per cent. per annum in relation to the
A1 Facility;

 

(ii)           0.40 per cent. per annum in relation to the
A2 Facility; and

 

(iii)          0.50 per cent. per annum, in relation to the
C Facility,

 

provided that if, by and
with effect from the date that is 15 months after the Closing Date:

 

(x)            the
A1 Outstandings have not been repaid in full and the Commitments of the Banks
in relation to the A1 Facility cancelled in full, the commitment commission
payable in respect of the A1 Facility shall be automatically increased to 0.50
per cent. per annum; and

 

(y)           if
the A2 Outstandings have not been repaid in full and the Commitments of the
Banks in relation to the A2 Facility cancelled in full, the commitment
commission payable in respect of the A2 Facility shall be automatically
increased to 0.55 per cent. per annum,

 

(b)           Commitment commission payable hereunder shall
be payable in arrear in the relevant Designated Currency on (i) in the case of
any Facility, each Settlement Date and (ii) on the Final Maturity Date.

 

25.2         Fees

 

The Parent shall pay or
cause to be paid (to the extent not already paid) to the Facility Agent for its
own account each of the fees specified in the Fee Letters at the times, and in
the amounts, specified in such letter.

 

26.          CANADIAN PERMITTED BANK
FEES

 

(a)           In consideration for the purchase by the
Canadian Permitted Bank from each Non-Canadian Bank of a Canadian Sale Right in
respect of a Facility, the Canadian Permitted Bank agrees to pay each
Non-Canadian Bank, as and when the Canadian Permitted Bank receives payment of
interest on its Canadian Advances, a Standby Fee on the Non-Canadian Bank’s
Canadian Pro-Rata Share of such Canadian Advances made by the Canadian
Permitted Bank.  The Standby Fee in
respect of any Non-Canadian Bank’s Pro-Rata Share in the Canadian Advance shall
be payable to the Non-Canadian Bank

 

199

 

when interest on such Canadian Advance is received by the Canadian
Permitted Bank.  If the Canadian
Permitted Bank does not receive payment in full of such interest, the Standby
Fee in respect of the Non-Canadian Bank’s Pro-Rata Share in such Canadian
Advance shall be reduced proportionately. 
If a Canadian Borrower pays less than all of the interest then due and
owing by it for any period, that portion of the interest equating to the
Standby Fee shall be deemed to be the last portion of interest paid or to be
paid.

 

(b)           The Canadian Borrower agrees that any
payments made by the Canadian Permitted Bank to a Non-Canadian Bank pursuant to
this Clause 26 will be subject to deduction or withholding for or on account of
Relevant Tax and that the Canadian Borrower shall pay and reimburse the
Canadian Permitted Bank (and, upon receipt thereof, Canadian Permitted Bank
shall pay to the Non-Canadian Bank as an additional Standby Fee) an amount
equal to such additional amount or amounts that the Canadian Permitted Bank
would have to pay to each Non-Canadian Bank to ensure that each such
Non-Canadian Bank receives an amount net of any deduction or withholding for
any Relevant Tax (including deductions or withholdings applicable to any
additional amounts paid under this Clause 26) equal to the sum which the
Non-Canadian Bank would have received had no such deduction or withholding been
made or required to be made.  If the Canadian
Permitted Bank or a Non-Canadian Bank is required to make any payment of or on
account of any Relevant Tax on or in relation to any amount received or
receivable under this Clause 26 or if any liability in respect of any such
payment is asserted, imposed, levied or assessed against the Canadian Permitted
Bank or any Non-Canadian Bank with respect to any amounts paid by Canadian
Permitted Bank to a Non-Canadian Bank as contemplated hereunder, the Canadian
Permitted Bank or Non-Canadian Bank, as applicable, may pay such Relevant Taxes
and the Canadian Borrower shall, upon demand of the Facility Agent, promptly
indemnify and pay such additional amount or amounts (including any penalty,
interest, cost or expense payable or incurred in connection therewith) as is
necessary to ensure that such Canadian Permitted Bank or Non-Canadian Bank, as
applicable, receives an amount net of any such Relevant Taxes (including
Relevant Taxes applicable to any such additional amounts) equal to the sum
which the Canadian Permitted Bank or Non-Canadian Bank, as applicable, would
have received had no such deduction or withholding for any such Relevant Taxes
been made or required to have been made. 
Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, a Non-Canadian Bank shall not be
entitled to receive any amount under this Section: to the extent it is not
eligible for the benefit of a Double Taxation Treaty otherwise than by reason
of any change after the date hereof in law or in its interpretation or
administration (including, without limitation, the introduction of legislation,
any change in judicial interpretation, any change in an applicable Double
Taxation Treaty or any change in the published practice of a relevant tax
authority) in respect of the amount of any Standby Fee; to the extent that it
does not comply with any formalities required for eligibility under such Double
Taxation Treaty (including without limitation completing and submitting any
form or other document required for the purpose of ensuring the application of
a Double Taxation Treaty or applicable tax laws or regulations); to the extent
it provides any advances to the Canadian Permitted Bank prior to the Notice of
Exercise

 

200

 

of Sale Right which are connected to the Facility; to the extent that
any Relevant Tax, interest, penalties, costs or expenses of a Finance Party
which would not have arisen or been incurred but for the reasonably avoidable
delay or the default of such Finance Party; or to the extent it is compensated for
by an increased payment under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up),
or Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity).

 

A Bank intending to make
a claim pursuant to this Clause 26 (Canadian Permitted Bank
Fees) shall provide a certificate to the Facility Agent regarding
the applicable Double Taxation Treaty whereupon the Facility Agent shall notify
the Parent thereof.

 

If, and to the extent
that, the effect of Clause 26 (Canadian Permitted Bank
Fees) can be mitigated by virtue of the provisions of any applicable
Double Taxation Treaty or any applicable tax law (whether by a claim to
repayment of any taxes referred to in Clause 26 (Canadian
Permitted Bank Fees) or otherwise) the relevant Finance Party
agrees, provided that, and for so long as, no Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, to co-operate with the Parent with a view to completing and
submitting any forms required for the purpose of ensuring the application of
such Double Taxation Treaty or applicable tax law so far as relevant, provided
that no Finance Party shall be required pursuant to this Clause 26 (Canadian Permitted Bank Fees) to complete or co-operate in
completing any form unless the Parent or the relevant Borrower reasonably
requests it to do so.

 

Notwithstanding any other
provision hereof, in respect of Advances to a Canadian Borrower (i) in the
case of Non-Canadian Banks, following a Notice of Exercise of Sale Right, and
(ii) in the case of the Canadian Permitted Bank if any Event of Default
shall occur and be continuing, such Finance Party in respect of any such
Advance shall be entitled to the benefit of and be subject to sections 14.1,
14.2, 14.3, 14.4 and 14.5 provided that any reference therein to “Qualifying Bank” shall be read as including such Finance
Party in such circumstances.

 

(c)           For the purposes of this Clause 26, “Standby Fee” means a fee at a rate per
annum equal to the Applicable Margin on BA Rate Loans or the Canadian Swingline
Advances, as the case may be, minus 18 basis points for a period of twelve
months commencing on the Closing Date and thereafter minus 25.5 basis
points.

that where correspondence lawyers will be required in any applicable political
or regional subdivision thereof, reasonable fees incurred by such
correspondence lawyers shall also be reimbursed)) on a full indemnity basis
together with any VAT thereon (subject to Clause 14.7(c) (VAT)) incurred in or in connection with the preservation
and/or enforcement of any of the rights of the Finance Parties under the
Finance Documents (including, without limitation, any reasonable out-of-pocket
costs and expenses relating to any investigation as to whether or not an Event
of Default has occurred or is likely to occur or any steps necessary or
desirable in connection with any proposal for remedying or otherwise resolving
an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default), it being understood that no
Obligor shall be held liable to pay for any taxes, duties, notary or mortgage
keeper fees and similar expenses following the assignment, transfer or novation
by a Finance Party to another party of any of its rights under a business
pledge agreement dated as at the date hereof between Hertz Belgium NV as
pledgor and BNP Paribas as pledgee.

 

27.3         Stamp Taxes

 

The Parent shall pay (or
cause to be paid) all stamp, registration and other similar taxes to which the
execution and delivery of the Finance Documents or any judgment given in
connection therewith is or at any time may be subject and shall, from time to
time on demand of the Facility Agent, indemnify the Finance Parties against any
liabilities, costs, claims and expenses resulting from any failure to pay or
any delay in paying any such tax.

 

27.4         Amendment Costs

 

If an Obligor requests
any amendment, waiver or consent then the Parent shall, within five Business
Days of demand by the Facility Agent, reimburse (or cause to be reimbursed) the
Finance Parties for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including
reasonable legal fees of a single counsel in each relevant jurisdiction)
together with any VAT thereon (subject to Clause 14.7(c) (VAT)) directly incurred by such person in responding to or
complying with such request.

 

27.5         Banks’ Liabilities for Costs

 

If the Parent fails to
perform any of its obligations under this Clause 27 (Costs and
Expenses), each Bank shall, in its Proportion, indemnify each of the
Facility Agent,

 

202

 

the Security Agent and
the Arrangers against any loss incurred by any of them as a result of such
failure.

 

27.6         No Other Tax

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing,
except as provided in Clause 27.1 (Transaction Expenses),
Clause 27.2 (Preservation and Enforcement of Rights)
and Clause 27.3 (Stamp Taxes),
the Parent shall have no obligation under this Clause 27 (Costs and Expenses) to any Finance Party with respect to any
tax, levy, impost, duty, charge, fee, deduction or withholding imposed, levied,
collected, withheld or assessed by any governmental authority.

 

28.          DEFAULT INTEREST AND
BREAK COSTS

 

28.1         Default Interest Periods

 

If any sum due and
payable by an Obligor hereunder is not paid on the due date therefor in
accordance with Clause 31 (Payments) or if
any sum due and payable by an Obligor under any judgment of any court in
connection herewith is not paid on the date of such judgment, the period
beginning on such due date or, as the case may be, the date of such judgment
and ending on the date upon which the obligation of such Obligor to pay such
sum is discharged shall be divided into successive periods, each of which (other
than the first) shall start on the last day of the preceding such period and
the duration of each of which shall (except as otherwise provided in this
Clause 28 (Default Interest and Break Costs))
be selected by the Facility Agent acting reasonably.

 

28.2         Default Interest

 

An Unpaid Sum shall bear
interest during each Interest Period in respect thereof at the rate per annum
equal to the lesser of (x) two per cent. per annum and (y) the maximum rate
permitted by applicable law above the percentage rate which would apply to an
Advance in the amount and currency of such Unpaid Sum and for the same Interest
Period, provided that if such Unpaid Sum relates to an Advance which became due
and payable on a day other than the last day of the Term relating thereto:

 

(a)           the first Interest Period applicable to such
Unpaid Sum shall be of a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current
Term relating to that Advance; and

 

(b)           the percentage rate of interest applicable
thereto from time to time during such period shall be that which exceeds by two
per cent. the rate which would have been applicable to it had it not so fallen
due.

 

28.3         Payment of Default Interest

 

Any interest which shall
have accrued under Clause 28.2 (Default Interest)
in respect of an Unpaid Sum shall be due and payable and shall be paid by the
Obligor owing such Unpaid Sum on the last day of each Interest Period in
respect thereof or on such other dates as the Facility Agent may specify by
notice to such Obligor.

 

203

 

28.4         Break Costs

 

If any Bank or L/C
Issuer or the Facility Agent receives or recovers all or any part of an Advance
or Unpaid Sum otherwise than on the last day of the Term relating thereto, the
relevant Borrower shall pay to the Facility Agent on demand for account of such
Bank or L/C Issuer an amount equal to the amount (if any) by which (a) the
additional interest which would have been payable on the amount so received or
recovered had it been received or recovered on the last day of that Term exceeds
(b) the amount of interest which as determined by the Facility Agent
(acting reasonably) would have been payable to the Facility Agent on the last
day of that Term in respect of a deposit in the currency of the amount so
received or recovered placed by it with a prime bank in London for a period
starting one Business Day following the date of such receipt or recovery and
ending on the last day of that Term.

 

29.          INDEMNITIES

 

29.1         Indemnity

 

The Parent
undertakes to indemnify:

 

(a)           each Finance Party against any cost, claim,
loss, expense (including reasonable legal fees of a single counsel in each
relevant jurisdiction) or liability together with any VAT thereon (subject to
Clause 14.7(c) (VAT)), whether
or not reasonably foreseeable, which it may sustain or incur other than through
its gross negligence or wilful misconduct as a consequence of the occurrence of
any Event of Default or any default by any Obligor in the performance of any of
the obligations expressed to be assumed by it in the Finance Documents;

 

(b)           each Bank against any cost or loss it may
suffer other than through its gross negligence or wilful misconduct under
Clause 27.5 (Banks’ Liabilities for Costs) or
Clause 34.6 (Indemnification); and

 

(c)           each Bank and each L/C Issuer against any
loss it may suffer or incur other than through its gross negligence or wilful
misconduct as a result of:

 

(i)            its funding or making arrangements to fund
its portion of an Advance requested by any Borrower but not made by reason of
the operation of any one or more of the provisions hereof; or

 

(ii)           its issuing or making arrangements to issue a
Letter of Credit but not issued by reason of the operation of any one or more
of the provisions hereof.

 

29.2         Currency Indemnity

 

If any sum (a “Sum”) due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents or any
order, judgment given or made in relation thereto has to be converted other
than pursuant to Clause 37 (Change of Currency)
from the currency (the “First Currency”)
in which such Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second
Currency”) for the purpose of:

 

204

 

(a)           making or filing a claim or proof against
such Obligor;

 

(b)           obtaining an order, judgment in any court or
other tribunal; or

 

(c)           enforcing any order, judgment given or made
in relation thereto,

 

the Parent shall
indemnify each person to whom such Sum is due from and against any loss
suffered or incurred as a result of any discrepancy between (a) the rate of
exchange used for such purpose to convert such Sum from the First Currency into
the Second Currency and (b) the rate or rates of exchange available to such
person at the time of receipt of such Sum.

 

29.3         Acquisition Indemnity

 

(a)           The Parent shall indemnify each Finance Party
from time to time within five Business Days of demand of such Finance Party,
against any cost, claim, loss, expense (including legal fees) or liability
together with VAT thereon (subject to Clause 14.7(c) (VAT)),
whether or not reasonably foreseeable, which the relevant Finance Party may
sustain or incur (except to the extent that the same result from the gross
negligence or wilful misconduct of that Finance Party or any breach by that
Finance Party of the provisions of the Finance Documents) arising out of a
claim or action of any person relating to the Acquisition (whether or not
consummated) or any use of the proceeds of any Advance.  It is agreed that:

 

(i)            each Finance Party shall promptly notify the
Parent in reasonable detail of any potential claim by it under this
Clause 29.3 promptly upon it becoming aware of that potential claim; and

 

(ii)           if the Parent acting reasonably wishes any
Finance Party to enter into any negotiations with a view to settlement of any
dispute with any third party likely to give rise to any cost, claim, loss,
expense or liability for which a claim may be made under this Agreement, it
shall notify that Finance Party accordingly, which Finance Party will then (to
the extent the same would not be prejudicial to its interests or contrary to
any internal policy or advice of its advisers) enter into negotiations in good
faith on a without prejudice basis.

 

(b)           Each Finance Party shall promptly give to the
Parent such details and copies of correspondence and process served concerning
(or concerning the circumstances giving rise to) any cost, claim, loss, expense
or liability which may form the basis of any claim by it on the Parent.

 

(c)           At the request of the Parent acting
reasonably, from time to time, each Finance Party will discuss with the Parent
and will give careful consideration in good faith to the views of the Parent
concerning the appointment of professional advisers in connection with any
cost, claim, loss, expense or liability (and in connection with the
circumstances giving rise thereto and any proceedings, current, pending or
threatened relating thereto) and the conduct of any proceedings, and will use
reasonable endeavours to procure that (once appointed) all professional
advisers acting for it in relation thereto shall do

 

205

 

likewise and that where such Finance Party does not reasonably consider
that it is against such Finance Party’s best interests, one firm of
professional advisers only is appointed to represent all of the Finance
Parties.

 

(d)           To induce the Canadian Permitted Bank, and,
if applicable, the Non-Canadian Banks, to provide BA Rate Loans on the terms
provided herein, if:

 

(i)            any BA Rate Loan is repaid in whole or in
part prior to the last day of its Term (whether that repayment is made pursuant
to any provision of this Agreement of any other Finance Document or occurs as a
result of acceleration, by operation of law or otherwise);

 

(ii)           a Canadian Borrower shall default in payment
when due of the principal amount of or interest of any BA Rate Loan;

 

(iii)          a Canadian Borrower shall refuse to accept
any borrowing of, or shall request a termination of any borrowing of,
conversion into or continuation of any BA Rate Loans after a Canadian Borrower
has given notice requesting the same in accordance herewith; or

 

(iv)          a Canadian Borrower shall fail to make any
prepayment of any BA Rate Loan after it has given a notice thereof in
accordance herewith,

 

then
the Parent shall indemnify and hold harmless the Canadian Permitted Bank and
the Non-Canadian Banks from and against all losses, costs and expenses
resulting from or arising from any of the foregoing.  Such indemnification shall include any loss
(including loss of margin) or expense arising from the reemployment of funds
obtained by it or from fees payable to terminate deposits from which such funds
were obtained.  For the purpose of
calculating amounts payable to the Canadian Permitted Bank and the Non-Canadian
Banks under this paragraph (d), the Canadian Permitted Bank and after the
Notice of Exercise of Sale Right, the Non-Canadian Banks shall be deemed to
have actually funded its relevant BA Rate Loan through the purchase of a
deposit bearing interest at the BA Rate in an amount equal to the amount of
that BA Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Term,
provided that the Canadian Permitted Bank and the Non-Canadian Banks may fund
each of its BA Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing
assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under
this subsection.  This covenant shall
survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of all amounts payable
hereunder.  As promptly as practicable
under the circumstances, the Canadian Permitted Bank and the Non-Canadian Banks
shall provide the Parent with its written calculation of all amounts payable
pursuant to this Clause 29.3(d), and such calculation shall be binding on
the parties hereto unless the Parent shall object in writing within ten (10)
Business Days of receipt thereof, specifying the basis for such objection in
detail.

 

206

 

30.          CURRENCY OF ACCOUNT AND
PAYMENT

 

Euro is the
currency of account and payment for each and every sum at any time due from an
Obligor hereunder, provided that:

 

(a)           each payment in respect of costs and expenses
shall be made in the currency in which the same were incurred;

 

(b)           each payment pursuant to Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) or Clause 16 (Increased
Costs) shall be made in the currency specified by the party claiming
thereunder;

 

(c)           each payment of commitment fees pursuant to
Clause 25.1 (Commitment Commission) shall be
made in the Designated Currency in which the Available Facility in relation to
a Facility or Tranche (as the case may be) is denominated;

 

(d)           each payment of interest shall be made in the
Designated Currency of the Advance or Unpaid Sum on which such interest
accrued; and

 

(e)           each payment of principal shall be made in
the Designated Currency in which the relevant Advance or Unpaid Sum is denominated;
and

 

(f)            each payment pursuant to Clause 12 (C Borrower’s Liabilities in relation to Letters of Credit)
in relation to a Letter of Credit shall be made in the currency in which such
Letter of Credit is denominated.

Save as otherwise
provided herein, each payment received by the Facility Agent pursuant to
Clause 31.1 (Payments to the Facility Agent)
shall:

 

(a)           in the case of a payment received for the
account of a Borrower, be made available by the Facility Agent to such Borrower

or towards payment of any amount then due from such Borrower hereunder to the
person from whom the amount was so received; and

 

(ii)           second, as soon as reasonably practicable in
or towards payment to the account of such Borrower with such bank as such
Borrower shall have previously notified to the Facility Agent for this purpose;
and

 

208

 

(b)           in the case of any other payment, be made
available by the Facility Agent to the person entitled to receive such payment
in accordance with this Agreement (in the case of a Bank, for the account of
its relevant Facility Office) for value the same day by transfer to such
account of such person with such bank in the principal financial centre of the
currency of such payment as such person shall have previously notified to the
Facility Agent.

 

31.3         No Set-off

 

All payments
required to be made by an Obligor hereunder shall be calculated without
reference to any set-off or counterclaim and shall be made free and clear of
and without any deduction for or on account of any set-off or counterclaim.

 

31.4         Clawback

 

Where a sum is to
be paid hereunder to the Facility Agent for account of another person, the
Facility Agent shall not be obliged to make the same available to that other
person until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has
actually received such sum, but if it does so and it proves to be the case that
it had not actually received such sum, then the person to whom such sum was so
made available shall on request refund the same to the Facility Agent together
with an amount sufficient to indemnify the Facility Agent against any cost or
loss it may have suffered or incurred by reason of its having paid out such sum
prior to its having received such sum.

 

31.5         Partial Payments

 

If and whenever a
payment is made by a Borrower hereunder and the Facility Agent receives an
amount less than the due amount of such payment the Facility Agent may apply
the amount received towards the obligations of such Borrower under this
Agreement in the following order:

 

(a)           first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees (other than any fronting bank
fee or commitment commission fee), costs and expenses of each of the Facility
Agent, the Security Agent and the Arrangers;

 

(b)           second, in or towards payment of any demand
made by an L/C Issuer in respect of a payment made or to be made by it under a
Letter of Credit due but unpaid;

 

(c)           third, in or towards payment pro rata of any
accrued interest, letter of credit commission or fronting bank fee payable to
any Bank or L/C Issuer hereunder due but unpaid;

Outstandings due but unpaid; and

 

(e)           fifth, in or towards payment pro rata of any
other sum due but unpaid.

 

31.6         Variation of Partial Payments

 

The order of
partial payments set out in Clause 31.5 (Partial
Payments) shall override any appropriation made by the Borrower to
which the partial payment relates but the

 

209

 

order set out in
Clauses 31.5(d) and 31.5(e) (Partial Payments)
may be varied if agreed by all the Banks.

 

31.7         Business Days

 

(a)           Any payment which is due to be made on a day
that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same

not).

 

(b)           During any extension of the due date for
payment of any principal or an Unpaid Sum under this Agreement in accordance
with Clause 31.7(a) (Business Days)
interest is payable on the principal at the rate payable on the original due
date.

 

32.          SET-OFF

 

32.1         Contractual Set-off

 

Each Obligor
authorises each Bank and each L/C Issuer to apply any credit balance to which
such Obligor is entitled on any account of such Obligor with such Bank in
satisfaction of any sum due and payable from such Obligor to such Bank or L/C
Issuer, as the case may be, hereunder but unpaid.  For this purpose, each Bank and L/C Issuer is
authorised to purchase with the moneys standing to the credit of any such
account such other currencies as may be necessary to effect such application.

 

32.2         Set-off not Mandatory

 

No Bank or L/C
Issuer shall be obliged to exercise any right given to it by Clause 32.1 (Contractual Set-off).

 

33.          SHARING

 

33.1         Payments to Banks

 

If a Bank (a “Recovering  Bank”) applies
any receipt or recovery from an Obligor to a payment due under this Agreement
and such amount is received or recovered other than in accordance with
Clause 31 (Payments), then such Recovering
Bank shall:

 

(a)           within three Business Days, notify the
Facility Agent of such receipt or recovery;

 

(b)           at the request of the Facility Agent,
promptly pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the “Sharing  Payment”)
equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent
determines may be retained by such Recovering Bank as its share of any payment

intention to take such legal or arbitration proceedings; and

independent investigation unless otherwise provided under this Agreement; and

 

(b)           assume that the relevant Facility Office or
Facility Offices of each Bank is or are notified to it by such Bank in writing

exercised.

relevant jurisdiction or expose the Facility Agent or the Security Agent or the

or any of them in respect of any of these matters.

 

34.15       Agency Division Separate

 

In acting as
Facility Agent, Security Agent or the Global Coordinator hereunder for any of
the Finance Parties, the agency division of the relevant person shall be
treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments
and, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Clause 34 (The Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Global Coordinator and the
Finance Parties), any information received by some other division or
department of the Facility Agent, Security Agent or the Global Coordinator may
be treated as confidential and shall not be regarded as having been given to
such person’s agency division.  Any
information or notice given to or received by the Security Agent, the Facility
Agent or the Global Coordinator in its capacity as a Finance Party shall not be
deemed to have been received by the Security Agent, the Facility Agent or the
Global Coordinator in its capacity as Security Agent, Facility Agent, or the
Global Coordinator respectively.

 

34.16       Security Agent, Facility Agent or the Global
Coordinator as Finance Parties

 

Each of the
Security Agent, the Facility Agent and the Global Coordinator is, at the date

which it would be entitled so to take in its capacity as a Finance Party if it
were not acting as agent or trustee and shall not be precluded by virtue of its
position as Finance Party from exercising any of its discretions, power and
duties as agent or trustee.

the entitlement of all or any of the Finance Parties.

 

34.18       Information

 

The Finance

the Facility Agent) as being necessary or desirable for the purpose of enabling
the Security Agent to perform its functions as trustee and as security agent.

 

34.19       Copies of Notices

 

In each case in
which an Obligor is required by this Agreement to provide a copy or copies to
one or more agents of any notice or instruction that is delivered to another

or instruction.

 

219

 

35.          THE BANKS AND THE L/C
ISSUER

 

35.1         Banks’ Indemnity

 

If any C Borrower
fails to comply with its obligations under Clause 12.1 (C Borrower’s Indemnity to L/C Issuers) with respect to a
Letter of Credit the Facility Agent shall make demand on each Bank for its
share of such L/C Amount and, subject to Clause 35.2 (Direct
Participation), each Bank shall indemnify the L/C Issuer for such
Bank’s L/C Proportion of each L/C Amount.

 

35.2         Direct Participation

 

If any Bank is not
permitted (by its constitutional documents or any applicable law) to comply
with Clause 35.1 (Banks’ Indemnity)
then such Bank will not be obliged to comply with Clause 35.1 (Banks’ Indemnity) and shall instead be deemed to have taken,
on the date such Letter of Credit, as the case may be, is issued (or if later,
on the date such L/C Proportion is transferred or assigned to such Bank in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement), an undivided interest and
participation in such Letter of Credit or in an amount equal to such Bank’s L/C
Proportion of such Letter of Credit.  On
receipt of a demand made by the Facility Agent in accordance with
Clause 35.1 (Banks’ Indemnity), each such Bank
shall pay to the Facility Agent (for the account of the L/C Issuer) its L/C
Proportion of any L/C Amount.

 

35.3         Obligations not Discharged

 

Neither the
obligations of each Bank in this Clause 35 nor the rights, powers and
remedies conferred upon the L/C Issuer by this Agreement or by law shall be
discharged, impaired or otherwise affected by:

 

(a)           the winding-up, dissolution, administration
or re-organisation of the relevant L/C Issuer, a C Borrower or any other person
or any change in its status, function, control or ownership;

 

(b)           any of the obligations of the relevant L/C
Issuer, a C Borrower or any other person hereunder, under a Letter of Credit or
under any other security taken in respect of its obligations hereunder or under
a Letter of Credit being or becoming illegal, invalid, unenforceable or
ineffective in any respect;

 

(c)           time or other indulgence being granted or
agreed to be granted to the relevant L/C Issuer, a C Borrower or any other
person in respect of its obligations hereunder, under a Letter of Credit or
under any such other security;

 

(d)           any amendment to, or any variation, waiver or
release of, any obligation of an L/C Issuer, a C Borrower or any other person
hereunder, under a Letter of Credit or under any such other security; and

 

(e)           any other act, event or omission (other than
the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of an L/C Issuer) which, but for this
Clause 35.3, might operate to discharge, impair or otherwise affect any of
the obligations of each Bank herein contained or any of the rights, powers or
remedies conferred upon any L/C Issuer by this Agreement or by law.

 

220

 

The obligations of
each Bank herein contained shall be in addition to and independent of every
other security which any L/C Issuer may at any time hold in respect of any
Letter of Credit.

 

35.4         Settlement Conditional

 

Any settlement or
discharge between a Bank and an L/C Issuer shall be conditional upon no
security or payment to any L/C Issuer by a Bank or any other person on behalf
of a Bank being avoided or reduced by virtue of any laws relating to
bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar laws of general application and,
if any such security or payment is so avoided or reduced, such L/C Issuer shall
be entitled to recover the value or amount of such security or payment from
such Bank subsequently as if such settlement or discharge had not occurred.

 

35.5         Exercise of Rights

 

No L/C Issuer
shall be obliged before exercising any of the rights, powers or remedies
conferred upon them in respect of any Bank by this Agreement or by law:

 

(a)           to take any action or obtain judgment in any
court against a C Borrower;

 

(b)           to make or file any claim or proof in a
winding-up or dissolution of a C Borrower; or

 

(c)           to enforce or seek to enforce any other
security taken in respect of any of the obligations of a C Borrower hereunder.

 

36.          ASSIGNMENTS AND TRANSFERS

 

36.1         Binding Agreement

 

The Finance
Documents shall be binding upon and ensure to the benefit of each party hereto
and its or any subsequent successors and permitted assignees and transferees.

obligations under the Finance Documents.

 

36.3         Assignments and Transfers by Banks

 

Subject to
Clause 36.4 (Original Banks) and obtaining the
prior written consent of the Coordinator (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed (taking into account the nature and identity of any
proposed assignee or transferee together with such information as is provided
in respect thereof by the transferring or assigning Banks to the Coordinator or
is readily publicly available in relation thereto)), any Bank may, at any time,
assign all or any of its rights and benefits under the Finance Documents or
transfer in accordance with this Clause 36.3 (Assignments
and Transfers by Banks) all or any of its rights, benefits and
obligations under the Finance Documents to a bank or financial institution a (“New Bank”) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any
entity regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of

 

221

 

making, purchasing
or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets) provided that:

 

(a)           in respect of a Letter of Credit no such
assignment or transfer may be made without the prior written consent of the
relevant L/C Issuer;

 

(b)           the Coordinator’s consent is not required if
such assignment or transfer is:

 

(i)            to any subsidiary or affiliate or holding
company, or to any subsidiary or affiliate of any holding company, of such
Bank;

 

(ii)           to any other Bank;

 

(iii)          to any bank, financial institution or other
entity previously agreed by the Parent and the Arrangers; or

 

(iv)          whilst an Event of Default is continuing
pursuant to any of Clauses 23.1 (Failure to Pay),
23.5 (Insolvency and Rescheduling) or 23.6 (Winding-up)

 

provided
that, in any case specified in paragraph (b), the proposed assignee or
Transferee shall not, as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this
Clause 35, be entitled to receive any greater payment (before deduction
for or on account of any tax) under Clause 14 (Taxes)
or Clause 16 (Increased Costs)
than the assigning or transferring Bank would have been entitled to receive as
of such date under such Clauses with respect to the rights assigned (except to
the extent that by reason of a change in law, or the interpretation or
application thereof, after the date the transferring Bank became a party to
this Agreement the amount of such payments with respect to the assignee or
transferee would exceed the amount that would have been payable with respect to
the transferring Bank), and provided further that in any case specified in
paragraph (b), no assignment or transfer of all or part of any rights under the
Finance Documents with respect of any Advance made to a Dutch Borrower that is
an Orphan Financeco shall be made by any Bank unless the assignee or
Transferee, as the case may be, is described in paragraph (f) of the definition
of “Qualifying Bank”.

 

(c)           an assignment or transfer shall only be
permitted if it (i) is in respect of Commitments of a minimum amount equal to
at least £500,000 (in the case of the A1 Sterling Tranche), AUD500,000 (in the
case of the A1 Australian Dollar Tranche), CAD500,000 (in the case of the A1
Canadian Dollar Tranche), CHF200,000 (in the case of the A1 Swiss Franc
Tranche), €5,000,000 (in the case of the A1 Euro Tranche),  €200,000 (in the case of the A1 Italian Non-Guaranteed
Tranche) £100,000 (in the case of the A2 Sterling Tranche), AUD100,000 (in the
case of the A2 Australian Dollar Tranche), CAD100,000 (in the case of the A2
Canadian Dollar Tranche), CHF50,000 (in the case of the A2 Swiss Franc
Tranche), €1,000,000 (in the case of the A2 Euro Tranche) and €50,000 (in the
case of the A2 Italian Non-Guaranteed Tranche) or €2,000,000 (in the case of
the C Facility), provided the aggregate Euro Amount of Commitments assigned or
transferred is equal to at least €5,000,000 or (ii) relates to all of a Bank’s
C Commitment;

 

222

 

(d)           the consent of the Coordinator may be
withheld if the proposed assignee or transferee would, as of the date of any
assignment to it pursuant to this Clause 36 (Assignments
and Transfers) be entitled to receive any greater payment (before
deduction for or on account of any tax) under Clause 14 (Taxes) or Clause 16 (Increased
Costs) than the assigning or transferring Bank would have been
entitled to receive as of such date under such Clauses with respect to the
rights assigned (except to the extent that by reason of a change in law, or the
interpretation or application thereof, after the date the transferring Bank
became a party to this Agreement the amount of such payments to the assignee or
transferee would exceed the amount that would have been payable to the
transferring Bank);

 

(e)           in relation to any Swiss Borrower, the
Facility Agent and the Banks will ensure that assignments or transfers may not
be effected if after giving effect to such assignments or transfers there would
be more than 10 Banks (including participants and subparticipants) that are not
Qualifying Banks as defined in relation to any Swiss Borrower;

 

(f)            any such Bank wishing to assign or transfer
all or any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement shall give to
each Dutch Borrower not less than five Business Days’ prior written notice to
that effect;

 

(g)           at any time whilst it is a requirement of
Dutch law that each Bank is a PMP, any Dutch Borrower may, within five Business
Days of receipt of the relevant notice from the Bank under (e) above, object to
such assignment or transfer by notice in writing to such Bank wishing to effect
such assignment or transfer if the relevant assignee or transferee is not a
PMP; and

 

(h)           if no such objection is received from each
Dutch Borrower within such five Business Day period the relevant Bank shall be
entitled to proceed with such assignment or transfer.

 

36.4         Original Banks

 

Any assignment or
transfer made by a Bank party to this Agreement on the date hereof (an “Original Bank”) prior to the end of the Carve Out Period
shall only be permitted if the Original Banks (and each other bank or financial
institution approved for this purpose by the Original Equity Investors (such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld)) with Commitments as at the date
hereof in relation to the A Facilities or the C Facility respectively shall
hold, in aggregate, not less than 51 per cent. of the Total A1 Commitments and
the Total A2 Commitments collectively or of the Total C Commitments, as
the case may be, and provided that:

 

(a)           each of the Arrangers shall not reduce their
respective Commitments in (i) the A Facility taken as a whole or (ii) the C
Facility individually to less than 17.75 per cent. in the case of each
Mandated Lead Arranger, or 15.5 per cent. in the case of the Co-Arranger of (x)
the aggregate of the Total A1 Commitments and the Total A2 Commitments or
(y) the Total C Commitments except with the prior consent of the other
Arrangers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or
conditioned); and

 

223

 

(b)           if any of the Facility Agent, the Security
Agent or any of the Arrangers wishes to assign or transfer any part of its
Commitment, it must first offer each of the others a pro rata share of such
transfer or assignment (providing reasonable details of the same), which offer
shall be deemed to have been declined if not accepted in writing within three
Business Days.

 

36.5         Assignments by Banks

 

Save as otherwise
provided in an Australian Finance Document, if any Bank assigns all or any of
its rights and benefits under the Finance Documents in accordance with
Clause 36.3 (Assignments and Transfers by Banks),
then, unless and until the assignee has delivered a notice to the Facility
Agent confirming in favour of the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the
Arrangers and the other Banks and any relevant L/C Issuer that it shall be
under the same obligations towards each of them as it would have been under if
it had been an original party hereto as a Bank (whereupon such assignee shall
become a party hereto as a “Bank”), the
Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arrangers or the other Banks and any
relevant L/C Issuer shall not be obliged to recognise such assignee as having
the rights against each of them which it would have had if it had been such a
party hereto.  Any assignment shall be
notified by bailiff (huissier) to the relevant French Borrowers in accordance
with article 1690 of the French Civil Code at the initiative and at the cost of
the assignee.

 

36.6         Transfers by Banks

 

Save as otherwise
provided in an Australian Finance Document, if any Bank wishes to transfer all
or any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations under the Finance Documents
as contemplated in Clause 36.3 (Assignments and Transfers
by Banks), then such transfer may be effected by the delivery to the
Facility Agent of a duly completed Transfer Certificate in or in the form
provided for in Schedule 3 (Form of Transfer
Certificate) executed by such Bank and the relevant Transferee in
which event, on the later of the Transfer Date specified in such Transfer
Certificate and the fifth Business Day after (or such earlier Business Day
endorsed by the Facility Agent on such Transfer Certificate falling on or
after) the date of delivery of such Transfer Certificate to the Facility Agent:

 

(a)           to the extent that in such Transfer
Certificate the Bank party thereto seeks to transfer by novation its rights,
benefits and obligations under the Finance Documents, each of the Obligors and
such Bank shall be released from further obligations towards one another under
the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another shall be
cancelled (such rights and obligations being referred to in this
Clause 36.6 as “discharged rights and
obligations”);

 

(b)           each of the Obligors and the Transferee party
thereto shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights
against one another which differ from such discharged rights and obligations
only insofar as such Obligor and such Transferee have assumed and/or acquired
the same in place of such Obligor and such Bank;

 

(c)           the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the
Arrangers, such Transferee, the other Banks and any relevant L/C Issuer shall
acquire the same rights and

 

224

 

benefits and assume the same obligations between themselves as they
would have acquired and assumed had such Transferee been an original party
hereto as a Bank with the rights, benefits and/or obligations acquired or
assumed by it as a result of such transfer and to that extent the Facility
Agent, the Arrangers, the relevant Bank and any relevant L/C Issuer shall each
be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents;
and

 

(d)           such Transferee shall become a party hereto
as a “Bank”.

 

Any transfer by a
Bank of all or any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations under the Finance
Documents in accordance with this Clause 36.6 (Transfers by
Banks) shall be notified by bailiff (huissier) to the relevant
French Borrowers in accordance with article 1690 of the French Civil Code at
the initiative and at the cost of the assignee.

 

For the purposes
of article 1278 of the French Civil Code and article 1278 of the Belgian Civil
Code, it is expressly agreed that the security interests created pursuant to
the Security Documents shall be preserved for the benefit of the Transferee and
all other Finance Parties.

 

36.7         Assignment and Transfer Fees

 

On the date upon
which an assignment takes effect pursuant to Clause 36.5 (Assignments by Banks) or a transfer takes effect pursuant to
Clause 36.6 (Transfers by Banks) the relevant
assignee or Transferee shall pay to the Facility Agent for its own account a
fee of €2,000, provided that no such fee shall be payable in connection with
any such assignment or transfer pursuant to the primary syndication of the
Facilities or any such assignment or transfer by a Bank to its affiliate.

 

36.8         Disclosure of Information

 

Any Finance Party
may disclose to:

 

(a)           any person to (or through) whom such Finance
Party assigns or transfers (or may potentially assign or transfer) all or any
of its rights, benefits and obligations under the Finance Documents in
accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents and who agrees to comply
with the provisions of this Clause 35;

 

(b)           any person with (or through) whom such
Finance Party enters into (or may potentially enter into) any sub-participation
in relation to, or any other transaction under which payments are to be made by
reference to, this Agreement in accordance with the terms of the Finance
Documents and who agrees to comply with the provisions of this Clause 35;

 

(c)           its respective accountants, attorneys and
other advisors (provided such persons are made aware of the confidential nature
of the information disclosed); or

 

(d)           any person to whom information may be
required to be disclosed in compliance with any request or requirement of any
central bank, fiscal, monetary or other relevant authority or as may be,
compelled in any judicial or administrative proceeding or as otherwise required
by law provided that such

 

225

 

Finance Party, acting reasonably, notifies the Parent of any disclosure
pursuant to this paragraph (d) as far in advance as is reasonably practicable
under such circumstances (save where such notification is prohibited by
applicable law or where such disclosure is made as part of a Finance Party’s
reporting obligations to a central bank, fiscal, monetary or other relevant
authority); or

 

(e)           any Rating Agency in connection with any
Permitted Securitisation if, if to do so is consistent with such Rating
Agency’s practice, it agrees to be bound by the provisions of this
Clause 36.8.

 

such information
about any Obligor or the Group and the Finance Documents as such Finance Party,
acting reasonably, shall consider appropriate, but shall otherwise keep
confidential any written or oral information provided to it by or on behalf of
any member of the Group, any other Obligor or any Original Equity Investor
pursuant to or in connection with the Finance Documents, notwithstanding
Clause 36.6 (Transfers by Banks) or any other term
of any other Finance Document which purports to release Finance Parties from
their obligations under this Clause 36.8.

 

36.9         The Register

 

(a)           The Facility Agent, acting for this purpose
as the agent of the Obligors, shall maintain at its address referred to in
Clause 42 (Notices):

 

(i)            a copy of each notice referred to in
Clause 36.5 (Assignments by Banks) and each
Transfer Certificate referred to in Clause 36.6 (Transfers by
Banks) delivered to and accepted by it; and

 

(ii)           with respect to each Facility, a register for
the recording of the names and addresses of the Banks and the Commitment in the
relevant Designated Currency of, and principal amount owing in the relevant
Designated Currency to, each Bank from time to time (the “Register”) under such Facility.

 

The
entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes,
absent manifest error, and the Obligors, the Facility Agent and the Banks shall
treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder
for all purposes of this Agreement.  The
Register shall be available for inspection by any Obligor or any Bank at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(b)           Each party to this Agreement irrevocably
authorises the Facility Agent to make the relevant entry in the Register on its
behalf for the purposes of this Clause 36.9 without any further consent
of, or consultation with, such party.

 

36.10       Affiliates/Branches

 

(a)           Each Bank may discharge its obligations in
respect of an Advance or Letter of Credit under this Agreement by nominating a
branch or affiliate of such Bank to participate in that Advance or Letter of
Credit.

 

226

 

(b)           A Bank may nominate a branch or affiliate to
participate in one or more Advances or Letters of Credit:

 

(i)            in this Agreement; or

 

(ii)           in the Transfer Certificate pursuant to which
such Bank becomes party to this Agreement; or

to the Facility Agent.

 

(c)           Any branch or affiliate nominated by a Bank
to participate in an Advance or Letter of Credit shall:

 

(i)            participate in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement; and

 

(ii)           be entitled, to the extent of its
participation, to all the rights and benefits of a Bank under the Finance
Documents.

 

(d)           If (other than pursuant to Clause 18.1 (Mitigation)) a Bank nominates a branch or affiliate and the
effect of such nomination, as of the date of nomination, would be to cause any
Obligor to become obliged to pay any additional amount under Clause 14 (Taxes) or Clause 16 (Increased
Costs) which it would not have been obliged to pay if such Bank had
not nominated such branch or affiliate such Obligor shall not be obliged to pay
such amount.

 

(e)           If a Bank nominates an affiliate, that Bank
and that affiliate:

 

(i)            will be treated as having a single Commitment
but, subject as provided in (ii) below, shall for all other purposes be treated
as separate Banks; and

 

(ii)           will be regarded as a single Bank for the
purpose of voting in relation to any matter in connection with the Finance
Documents.

 

(f)            A Bank may only nominate a branch or an
affiliate under this Clause 36.10 to participate in an Advance that is
made to a Dutch Borrower, if such branch or affiliate is a PMP.

 

36.11       Assignments and Transfers of Loan Notes

 

(a)           Whenever a Bank, in relation to an Advance
made to an Australian Borrower assigns or transfers its rights and benefits, or
its rights, benefits and obligations, under this Agreement in accordance with
this Clause 36 (Assignments and Transfers)
and under the provisions of the relevant Australian Finance Document, it shall
simultaneously transfer to the assignee or transferee the Loan Notes issued by
the Australian Borrower that correspond to such Advance in a corresponding
principal amount to the principal amount of such Advance assigned or
transferred in accordance with the Loan Note Deed Poll.

 

227

 

(b)           A Bank may only transfer its rights and
benefits under a Loan Note if it simultaneously assigns or transfers to the
assignee or transferee its corresponding rights and benefits under this
Agreement.

 

(c)           The Facility Agent shall make appropriate
entries in the Loan Note Register in respect of any assignment or transfer
referred to in this Clause 36.11 at the time it receives the notice from
the assignee referred to in Clause 36.5 (Assignments
by Banks) or on the date on which such transfer takes effect in
accordance with Clause 36.6 (Transfers by Banks).

 

(d)           A Bank transferring a Loan Note is taken to
remain the holder of such Loan Note until the name of the transferee is entered
in the Loan Note Register in respect of such Loan Note.

 

36.12       Application to Canadian Sale Right

 

Clauses 36.2 (Assignments and Transfers by Obligors) to 36.7 (Assignment and Transfer Fees) inclusive shall not apply in

37.          CHANGE OF CURRENCY

 

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

 

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

 

(ii)           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 Facility Agent (acting reasonably).

 

(b)           If a change in any currency of a country
occurs, this Agreement will, to the extent the Facility Agent (acting
reasonably and after consultation with the Parent) specifies to be necessary,
be amended to comply with any generally accepted conventions and market
practice in the relevant interbank market and otherwise to reflect the change
in currency.

in each case by
delivering to the Facility Agent a Borrower Accession Memorandum and, subject

all the rights, benefits and obligations of a Borrower as if it had been an
Original Borrower on the date on which the Facility Agent notifies the Parent
that the Facility Agent has received, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to it, all documents and other evidence listed in Part 1 of
Schedule 8 (Additional Conditions Precedent)
in relation to such Eligible Borrower, unless on such date an Event of Default
or Potential Event of Default is continuing or would occur as a result of such
Eligible Borrower becoming an Additional Borrower.

otherwise on terms agreed with such other Bank or the Facility Agent or as
applicable, as lender of record with respect to such Borrower (such person, the
“Participation  Grantor”) to make such Advances on its
behalf; and

 

(c)           shall, in the event that a funded
participation agreement is entered into in accordance with Clause 38.3(b),
fund its participation in each such Advance by making funds available to the
Participation Grantor subject to and on the terms of such agreement.

 

229

 

38.4         Resignation of a Borrower

 

If at any time a
Borrower is under no actual obligation as a Borrower under or pursuant to any
Finance Document, the Parent may request that such Borrower shall cease to be a
Borrower by delivering to the Facility Agent a Resignation Notice.  Such Resignation Notice shall be accepted by
the Facility Agent on the date on which it notifies the Parent that it is
satisfied (acting reasonably) that such Borrower is under no such actual
obligation as a Borrower under or pursuant to any Finance Document and such
Borrower shall immediately cease to be a Borrower and shall have no further
rights, benefits or obligations as a Borrower under the Finance Documents
provided that if such Borrower is also a Guarantor at such time, its
obligations in its capacity as Guarantor shall continue to be legal, valid,
binding and enforceable and in full force and effect and the amount guaranteed
by it as a Guarantor shall not be decreased upon its resignation as a Borrower.

 

38.5         Termination of a Borrower’s rights

 

(a)           Upon a Financeco or an SPV other than EFS
meeting the criteria to be an Eligible Borrower in respect of any Facility, if
at such time its Related Opco is a Borrower under such Facility, such Related
Opco shall, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary in this
Agreement:

 

(i)            immediately cease to have any rights to
request Advances under this Agreement (other than Rollover Advances during the
repayment period permitted in paragraph (ii) below); and

 

(ii)           repay all outstanding Advances made to it
within 12 months or (aa) in the case of A1 Advances or A2 Advances the proceeds
of which were used to finance or re-finance the purchase price of Risk Vehicles
or trucks and/or vans owned by any Opco organised in Europe, 18 months,
(bb) in the case of A1 Advances or A2 Advances made to a Canadian Opco or an
Australian Opco the proceeds of which were used to finance or re-finance Risk
Vehicles, 24 months, or (cc) in the case of A1 Advances or A2 Advances
made to a German Borrower the proceeds of which were used to finance or
re-finance the purchase price of heavy trucks, 36 months, in each case from the
date on which the relevant Financeco or an SPV becomes an Operational Financeco
or an Operational SPV (as the case may be).

 

(b)           If any Eligible Borrower, after becoming an
Additional Borrower, ceases to satisfy the Eligibility Criteria (in this
paragraph (b), a “Failure”), such
Borrower will thereupon cease to have any rights to request Advances under this
Agreement until such time as it again satisfies the Eligibility Criteria
provided that if such Failure continues for a period of more than 30 days, such
Borrower shall immediately repay all Advances made to it.

 

(c)           Any Take-Out Borrower which is the subject of
a Take-Out Financing in respect of all its assets that would otherwise have
formed part of its Borrower Asset Value shall, upon the consummation of such
Take-Out Financing, cease to be entitled to request Advances under this
Agreement.

on the date on which the Facility Agent notifies the Parent that (a) it
has accepted the Parent’s request to nominate such subsidiary as a Designated
Obligor, and (b) it has received, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to it, all the documents and other evidence listed in Part 2
of Schedule 8 (Additional Conditions
Precedent) in relation to such subsidiary.

 

231

 

39.6         Cessation of a Designated Obligor

 

The Parent may
request that a Designated Obligor ceases to be a Designated Obligor by
delivering to the Facility Agent a Resignation Notice.  The Facility Agent shall accept such
Resignation Notice and notify the Parent of its acceptance (whereupon such
Designated Obligor shall immediately cease to be a Designated Obligor for the
purposes of this Agreement) if it has no outstanding obligations or rights
under a Designated Obligor Intercompany Loan Agreement, unless on such date an
Event of Default or Potential Event of Default is continuing.

 

39.7         Change of Coordinator

 

(a)           The Parent may request that any of its
subsidiaries acceptable to the Facility Agent (acting reasonably) becomes the
Coordinator in place of the existing Coordinator and such change shall become
effective upon that subsidiary delivering to the Facility Agent a Guarantor
Accession Memorandum duly executed by the Parent and such subsidiary together
with such other supporting documents as the Facility Agent may reasonably
require and the Facility Agent confirming that such supporting documents are
acceptable to it.

 

(b)           Upon satisfaction of the matters set out in
paragraph (a) of this Clause 39.7, the existing Coordinator shall be released
from all future obligations as Coordinator under the Finance Documents and
shall have no further rights as Coordinator.

 

40.          CALCULATIONS AND EVIDENCE
OF DEBT

 

40.1         Basis of Accrual

 

(a)           Interest, letter of credit commission and
commitment commission shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated on
the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in the case of (i) any Advance denominated
in sterling, 365 days or (ii) any Advance denominated in Australian Dollars or
Canadian Dollars and with respect to any other fees payable under any Finance
Document, 365 days (or if the applicable year is a leap year, 366 days) or in
any case where market practice differs, in accordance with market practice) and
the actual number of days elapsed.

 

(b)           For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada)
and with respect to a Canadian Borrower, (i) whenever any interest or fee
payable in relation to a Canadian Advance or a Canadian Tranche is calculated
using a rate based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, the rate
determined pursuant to such calculation, when expressed as an annual rate, is
equivalent to (x) the applicable rate based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as
the case may be, (y) multiplied by the actual number of days in the
calendar year in which the period for which such interest or fee is payable (or
compounded) ends, and (z) divided by 365 or 366, as the case may be, (ii)
the principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest
calculation under this Agreement, and (iii) the rates of interest stipulated in
this Agreement are intended to be nominal rates and not effective rates or
yields.

 

232

 

(c)           If any provision of this Agreement would
oblige a Canadian Borrower to make any payment of interest or other amount
payable to any Bank in an amount or calculated at a rate that would be
prohibited by applicable law or would result in a receipt by that Bank of
“interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under the Criminal
Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding such provision, such amount or rate shall
be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount
or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by
applicable law or so result in a receipt by that Bank of “interest” at a
“criminal rate”, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but
only to the extent necessary), as follows:

 

(i)            first, by reducing the amount or rate of
interest required to be paid to the affected Finance Party hereunder; and

 

(ii)           thereafter, by reducing any fees,
commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to
the affected Finance Party which would constitute interest for purposes of
section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).

 

(d)           When entering into this Agreement, the
parties hereto have assumed that payment of interest by the Swiss Borrower
payable hereunder is not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding
Tax.  Therefore, and without prejudice to
the procedures and obligations of Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up),
the Swiss Borrower and each of the Guarantor acknowledge and agree that the
interest rates set out in this Agreement shall constitute minimum interests
rate, which, if Swiss Withholding Tax should apply, shall be adjusted as
follows:

 

(i)            the Swiss Borrower or, as the case may be,
the Swiss Guarantors will pay such additional amounts as shall be necessary in
order for the net amounts received by the Banks after the withholding of Swiss
Withholding Tax to be equal to the respective amounts of interest which would
otherwise have been receivable in respect of the Facilities, as the case may
be, in the absence of the withholding of Swiss Withholding Tax and

 

(ii)           for this purpose, the Swiss Withholding Tax shall
be calculated on the full grossed-up interest amount at a rate of 35 per cent.
(as of the date of this Agreement), unless a tax ruling obtained from the Swiss
Federal Tax Administration confirms that such rate is, pursuant to any
double-taxation treaty, a specified lower rate in relation to specified Banks
in which case such lower rate shall be applied in relation to the relevant
Bank.

 

As
stated in Clause 14.3(d) (Bank’s Tax Status),
a Swiss Borrower is not obliged to make any additional interest payments of any
kind if Swiss Withholding Tax applies due to the fact that there are more than
ten Banks which are not Qualifying Banks in relation to such Swiss Borrower
under this Agreement. This paragraph (d) is therefore not applicable with
regard to any Swiss Obligor in any situation covered by Clause 14.3 (Bank’s Tax Status), unless such Swiss Obligor has violated
this paragraph (d).

 

233

 

40.2         Quotations

 

Subject to Clause
9 (Market Disruption and Alternative Interest Rates),
if on any occasion a relevant Reference Bank or Bank fails to supply the
Facility Agent with a quotation required of it under the foregoing provisions
of this Agreement, the rate for which such quotation was required shall be
determined from those quotations which are supplied to the Facility Agent.

 

40.3         Evidence of Debt

 

Each Bank shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts evidencing the amounts
from time to time lent by and owing to it hereunder.

 

40.4         Control Accounts

 

The Facility Agent
shall maintain on its books a control account or accounts in which shall be
recorded (a) the amount of any Advance or Unpaid Sum and the face amount of any
Letter of Credit issued and each Bank’s share therein, (b) the amount of all
principal, interest and other sums due or to become due from an Obligor and
each Bank’s share therein and (c) the amount of any sum received or recovered
by the Facility Agent hereunder and each Bank’s share therein.

 

40.5         Prima Facie Evidence

 

In any legal
action or proceeding arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, the
entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Clause 40.3 (Evidence of Debt) and Clause 40.4 (Control
Accounts) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be prima facie evidence
of the existence and amounts of the specified obligations of the Obligors.

 

40.6         Certificates of Banks

 

A certificate of a
Bank as to (a) the amount by which a sum payable to it hereunder is to be
increased under Clause 14.1 (Tax Gross-up),
(b) the amount for the time being required to indemnify it against any such
cost, payment or liability as is mentioned in Clause 14.2 (Tax Indemnity) or Clause 16 (Increased
Costs) or (c) the amount of any credit, relief, remission or
repayment as is mentioned in Clause 15.3 (Tax Credit
Payment) or Clause 15.4 (Tax and Other Affairs)
shall, in the absence of manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the
existence and amounts of the specified obligations of the Obligors.

 

40.7         Facility Agent’s Certificates

 

A certificate of
the Facility Agent as to the amount at any time due from the Borrowers or the
Parent hereunder or the amount which, but for any of the obligations of such
Borrower or the Parent hereunder being or becoming void, voidable,
unenforceable or ineffective, at any time would have been due from the
Borrowers hereunder shall, in the absence of manifest error, be prima facie
evidence for the purposes of Clause 24 (Guarantee
and Indemnity).

 

234

 

40.8         Letters of Credit

 

A certificate of
an L/C Issuer as to the amount paid out by such L/C Issuer in respect of any
Letter of Credit shall, save for manifest error, be prima facie evidence of the
payment of such amounts in any legal action or proceedings arising in connection
therewith.

 

41.          REMEDIES AND WAIVERS,
PARTIAL INVALIDITY

 

41.1         Remedies and Waivers

 

No failure to
exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Finance Party, any
right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any right or remedy prevent any further or other
exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy.  The rights and remedies herein provided are
cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

 

41.2         Partial Invalidity

 

If, at any time,
any provision of the Finance Documents is or becomes illegal, invalid or
unenforceable in any respect under the law of any jurisdiction, neither the
legality, validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions thereof nor
the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any
other jurisdiction shall in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

44.1                           Amendments

 

The Facility Agent,
if it has the prior consent of an Instructing Group in respect of each
Facility, and the Parent (acting on behalf of each of the Obligors) may from
time to time agree in writing to amend the Finance Documents or to waive,
prospectively or retrospectively, any of the requirements of the Finance
Documents and any amendments or waivers so agreed shall be binding on all the
Finance Parties, subject to Clause 44.2 (Amendments
Requiring Different Consent Levels).

 

44.2                           Amendments Requiring Different Consent Levels

 

No amendment of any
of the Finance Documents or waiver of any of the requirements of the Finance
Documents shall:

 

(a)                                  amend or waive any of the provisions of
Clause 33 (Sharing) or this Clause 44
without the consent of all the Banks;

 

(b)                                 reduce the amount or extend the scheduled date
of maturity of any Advance or any scheduled instalment of principal thereof, or
change the currency (other than as contemplated hereby) in which such Advance
is expressed to be payable, without the consent of all of the Banks;

 

(c)                                  decrease the Applicable Margin or L/C
Commission Rate or reduce the amount of any scheduled payment of interest or of
any fee payable to any Finance Party, or extend the scheduled date of payment
of such interest or fee, or change the currency (other than as contemplated
hereby) in which such interest or fee is expressed to be payable, without the
consent of each Finance Party directly affected thereby;

 

(d)                                 increase the amount of any Bank’s Commitment
without the consent of such Bank; or

 

(e)                                  amend or waive any of the requirements of any
provision of any Finance Document that expressly requires the consent or
approval of all the Banks or a certain percentage of the Banks, without the
consent of all the Banks or that specified percentage,

 

provided that:

 

if a Bank refuses
to consent inter alia to any waiver, amendment or
other consent requested under the terms of the Finance Documents where
unanimity is required but an Instructing Group has consented to such waiver,
amendment or consent, the Parent shall have the right to (x) require that Bank
to transfer all (but not part of) its Commitments to another person identified
by the Parent which is willing to accept such transfer provided further that
such transfer is

 

240

 

made for cash, at
par and together with all amounts on account of accrued interest, breakage
costs and other sums owing to such Bank in respect of its Commitment so

Loan Note Register without regard to any other record or instrument.

 

(b)                                 No notice of any trust or other interest in any
Loan Note will be entered on the Loan Note Register.  Neither the Australian Borrower, the Facility

claim to, a Loan Note, except as ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction or
required by law.

46.                               GOVERNING LAW

 

Save as provided in
Clause 1.12 (New York Law), this Agreement and
all matters arising from or connected with it are governed by English law.

 

47.                               JURISDICTION

 

47.1                           English Courts

 

The courts of
England have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute (a “Dispute”) arising out of or in connection with this
Agreement (including a dispute regarding the existence, validity or termination
of this Agreement or the consequences of its nullity).

 

47.2                           Convenient Forum

 

The parties agree
that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to
settle Disputes between them and, accordingly, that they will not argue to the
contrary.

 

47.3                           Non-Exclusive Jurisdiction

 

This Clause 47
is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. 
As a result and notwithstanding Clause 47.1 (English
Courts), it does not prevent any Finance Party from taking
proceedings relating to a Dispute (“Proceedings”)
in any other courts with jurisdiction. 
To the extent allowed by law, the Finance Parties may take concurrent
Proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

 

243

 

47.4                           Service of Process

 

(a)                                  Each Obligor incorporated outside England and
Wales agrees that the documents which start any Proceedings and any other
documents required to be served in relation to those Proceedings may be served
on it at Hertz Europe Limited, Hertz House, 11 Vine Street, Uxbridge, Middlesex
UB8 1QE, addressed to the attention of Vice President, Legal &
Corporate Affairs or, if different, its registered office in England and Wales,
who will be the service of process agent.

 

(b)                                 If the appointment of the person mentioned in
this Clause 47.4 ceases to be effective, the relevant Obligor shall
immediately appoint another person in England to accept service of process on
its behalf in England or Wales.  If an
Obligor fails to do so (and such failure continues for a period of not less
than 14 days), the Facility Agent shall be entitled to appoint such a person by
notice to such Obligor.  Nothing
contained herein shall restrict the right to serve process in any other manner
allowed by law.  This Clause 47.4
applies to Proceedings in England and to Proceedings elsewhere.

 

48.                               PLEDGES ON BANK
ACCOUNTS UNDER GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

 

(a)                                  Security created by any general terms and
conditions of business of a Finance Party over LTIBR owing to an Obligor shall
not secure directly or indirectly any advances made to any Borrower
incorporated in the Federal Republic of Germany (other than the relevant
Obligor itself) under the Finance Documents, but will nonetheless be valid as
security for all other obligations secured under such general terms and
conditions of business.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in the Finance Documents, (i) no German real estate shall secure any
borrowings of a German Obligor and (ii) no LTIBR of a person that is
affiliated with any German Obligor shall, directly or indirectly, secure any
borrowings of a German Obligor either by way of pledge, assignment for security
purposes or any other type of encumbrance. 
In case of a violation of either (i) or (ii) of the preceding
sentence and only with respect to borrowings of a German Obligor, no rights may
be claimed under such security and the parties shall be obligated to treat each
other as though such security had never been given and shall further be
obligated to immediately release any such security but only to the extent that
it relates to borrowings by a German Obligor.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein
or in the Finance Documents, no German VAT refund claims owing to an Irish person
by the German tax authorities, which person is affiliated with any German
Obligor (including, but not limited to, an Irish SPV to be formed at a later
point for the purpose of leasing vehicles to a German Opco) shall secure any
borrowings under this Agreement either by way of pledge, assignment for
security purposes or any other type of encumbrance.

 

AS WITNESS the hands of the duly authorised
representatives of the parties hereto the day and year first before written.

To:          [•], as Facility Agent

 

TRANSFER
CERTIFICATE

 

relating to the agreement (as
from time to time amended, varied, novated or supplemented, the “Facilities Agreement”) dated 21 December 2005 whereby
certain facilities were made available to the borrowers referred to therein by
a group of banks on whose behalf [•] acts as Facility Agent in
connection therewith.

 

1.                                       Terms defined in the Facilities
Agreement shall, subject to any contrary indication, have the same meanings
herein.  The terms Bank, Transferee and
Portion Transferred are defined in Schedule A hereto.

 

2.                                       The Bank (a) confirms that the
details in the schedule hereto under the heading “Bank’s
Participation in the Facility” or “Advances”,
accurately summarises its participation in the Facility Agreement and the Term
of any existing Advances and (b) requests the Transferee to accept and
procure the transfer by novation to the Transferee of the Portion Transferred
(specified in the schedule hereto) of its Commitment and/or its
participation in such Advance(s) by counter-signing and delivering this
Transfer Certificate to the Facility Agent at its address for the service of
notices specified in the Facility Agreement.

 

3.                                       The Transferee hereby requests the
Facility Agent to accept this Transfer Certificate as being delivered to the
Facility Agent pursuant to and for the purposes of Clause 36.6 (Transfers by Banks) of the Facility Agreement so as to take
effect in accordance with the terms thereof on the Transfer Date or on such
later date as may be determined in accordance with the terms thereof.  The Bank and the Transferee acknowledge and
agree that all payments by the Facility Agent in respect of the rights and
obligations transferred under this Transfer Certificate shall be made to the
Transferee with effect from the Transfer Date or such later date.

 

4.                                       The Transferee confirms that it has
received a copy of the Facilities Agreement together with such other
information as it has required in connection with this transaction and that it
has not relied and will not hereafter rely on the Bank to check or enquire on
its behalf into the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy, accuracy or
completeness of any such information and further agrees that it has not relied
and will not rely on the Bank to assess or keep under review on its behalf the
financial condition, creditworthiness, condition, affairs, status or nature of
the Obligors.

 

5.                                       The Transferee hereby undertakes
with the Bank and each of the other parties to the Facilities Agreement that it
will perform in accordance with their terms all those obligations which by the
terms of the Finance Documents will be assumed by it after delivery of this
Transfer Certificate to the Facility Agent and satisfaction of the conditions
(if any) subject to which this Transfer Certificate is expressed to take
effect.

 

252

 

6.

 

6.1                                 The Transferee hereby expressly consents to the
declarations of the Security Agent made on behalf of and in the name of the
Transferee as future pledgee, mortgagee or chargee in the Security Documents
and the Transferee confirms that it is aware of the contents of such Security
Documents.  For purposes of any accessory
encumbrance created under German law (an “Accessory Encumbrance”),
the Transferee acknowledges that it will, from the Transfer Date and pro rata
to its participation in the amounts secured by such Accessory Encumbrance,
become a direct beneficiary of the relevant Accessory Encumbrance.

 

6.2                                 [Each of the agents acting for and on behalf of
the Transferee under or in connection with the Finance Documents shall be
released from the restrictions of Section 181 German Civil Code (BGB).]

 

7.                                       [Subject to paragraph [10] below,]
the Bank makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of
the Finance Documents or any document relating thereto and assumes no
responsibility for the financial condition of the Obligors or for the
performance and observance by the Obligors of any of its obligations under the
Finance Documents or any document relating thereto and any and all such

nothing herein or in the Finance Documents (or any document relating thereto)

the whole or any part of its rights, benefits and/or obligations under the

directly or indirectly sustained or incurred by the Transferee for any reason
whatsoever including the non-performance by an Obligor or any other party to
the Finance Documents (or any document relating thereto) of its obligations
under any such document.  The Transferee
hereby acknowledges the absence of any such obligation as is referred to in (a) or
(b) above.

is aware that it therefore does not benefit from the (creditor) protection
offered by the Dutch Banking Act when lending monies to persons or entities
which are subject to the prohibition of Section 82 of the Dutch Banking
Act and (iii) it has made its own credit appraisal of the Dutch
Borrower.  The Transferee acknowledges
that each Dutch Borrower has relied upon such representation and warranty, it
being understood and acknowledged that the Facility

Agent has made no
enquiries with respect to the status of the Transferee as a PMP and that the
Facility Agent shall have no obligation or liability in that respect.](1)

hereto (a “Confirmation”).  Any Confirmation delivered pursuant to this
Transfer Certificate: (i) is given for the purpose of delivery to the
competent tax authorities of the Borrowers to assist the Borrowers in the
administration of their tax affairs and not for any other purpose, (ii) does
not guarantee the achievement of a specific result or conclusion for German tax
purposes, (iii) is addressed to and is solely for the benefit of the
Borrowers in relation to the Finance Documents, and (iv) does not create
third party rights of any kind.  The
Transferee shall not be liable as a result of the delivery of a
Confirmation.  Each of the Borrowers may
disclose the existence and content of a Confirmation to its professional
advisers, its respective affiliates, as required by applicable law or
regulation and to any tax, regulatory or other governmental authority asserting
jurisdiction over it.  This undertaking
shall not limit the undertaking of the Banks under Clause 24.18 (German Confirmation) of the Facilities Agreement.

 

12.                                 This Transfer Certificate and the rights,
benefits and obligations of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with English law.

 

(1)                                  To
be added if Dutch Borrower is a party to the Facilities Agreement at the time
the transfer takes place.

SCHEDULE 10

 

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE

 

1.             The Mandatory Cost Rate is an
addition to the interest rate to compensate Banks for the cost of compliance
with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial
Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all
or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central
Bank.

 

2.             On the first day of each Interest
Period or Term (as the case may be) (or as soon as possible thereafter) the
Facility Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Bank, in
accordance with the paragraphs set out below. 
The Mandatory Cost Rate will be calculated by the Facility Agent as a
weighted average of the Banks’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to
the percentage participation of each Bank in the relevant Advance) and will be
expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

 

3.             The Additional Cost Rate for any
Bank lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the
percentage notified by that Bank to the Facility Agent.  This percentage will be certified by that
Bank in its notice to the Facility Agent to be its reasonable determination of
the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Bank’s participation in all
Advances made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve
requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that
Facility Office.

 

4.             The Additional Cost Rate for any
Bank lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by
the Facility Agent as follows:

 

(a)           in relation to a sterling Advance:

 

	
  AB+C(B-D)+Ex 0.01

  	
  per
  cent. per annum

  
	
  100-(A+C)

  

 

(b)           in relation to a Advance in any currency other
than sterling:

 

	
  Ex 0.01

  	
  per
  cent. per annum.

  
	
  300

  

 

Where:

 

A             is the percentage of Eligible
Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that
Bank is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio
deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

 

B             is the percentage rate of interest
(excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost Rate and, if the Advance is an
Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in Clause 28.2(a) (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Term on the
Advance.

 

278

 

C             is the percentage (if any) of
Eligible Liabilities which that Bank is required from time to time to maintain
as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

 

D             is the percentage rate per annum
payable by the Bank of England to the Facility Agent on interest bearing
Special Deposits.

 

E              is designed to compensate Banks for
amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facility
Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the
relevant Reference Banks to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph 7
below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

 

5.             For the purposes of this Schedule:

 

(a)           “Eligible
Liabilities” and “Special Deposits”
have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank
of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

 

(b)           “Fees
Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA
Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time
to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

 

(c)           “Fee
Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under
the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero
rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any
applicable discount rate); and

 

(d)           “Tariff
Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in
accordance with, the Fees Rules.

 

6.             In application of the above
formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5
per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05).  A negative result obtained by subtracting D
from B shall be taken as zero.  The
resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

 

7.             If requested by the Facility Agent,
each relevant Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by
the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facility Agent, the rate of
charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority
pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of
the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference
Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank
for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff
Base of that Reference Bank.

 

8.             Each Bank shall supply any
information required by the Facility Agent for the purpose of calculating its
Additional Cost Rate.  In particular, but
without limitation, each Bank shall supply the following information on or
prior to the date on which it becomes a Bank:

 

(a)           the jurisdiction of each Facility
Office; and

 

279

 

(b)           any other information that the Facility
Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

 

Each Bank shall
promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by
it pursuant to this paragraph.

 

9.             The percentages of each Bank for the
purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each relevant Reference
Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility Agent based
upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above
and on the assumption that, unless a Bank notifies the Facility Agent to the
contrary, each Bank’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and
Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction
of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as the
relevant Facility Office.

 

10.           The Facility Agent shall have no
liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost
Rate which over or under compensates any Bank and shall be entitled to assume
that the information provided by any Bank or relevant Reference Bank pursuant
to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

 

11.           The Facility Agent shall distribute
the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost Rate to the
Banks on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Bank based on the
information provided by each Bank and each relevant Reference Bank pursuant to
paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

 

12.           Any determination by the Facility
Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory
Cost Rate, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Bank shall, in
the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

 

13.           The Facility Agent may from time to
time, after consultation with the Parent and the Banks, determine and notify to
all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in
order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from
time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority
or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which
replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the
absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

SCHEDULE 16

 

FORM OF LOAN NOTE DEED POLL

 

DATED [•]

 

Made by [AUSTRALIAN
BORROWER] (“Australian Borrower”) for the benefit of each person who
from time to time is a Bank (as defined in, and under the terms of, the
Facility Agreement defined below).

 

THE AUSTRALIAN BORROWER
HEREBY AGREES TO BE BOUND AS FOLLOWS:

 

1.             DEFINITIONS AND
INTERPRETATION

 

1.1          Definitions

 

Unless defined
below the definitions in the Facility Agreement (as defined below) apply in
this Deed and the following definitions apply in this Deed, in each case unless
the context requires otherwise.

 

“Bank” means:

 

(a)           any entity named in Schedule 1
(The Banks and their Commitments) to the Facility Agreement; or

 

(b)           any entity which has become a party
to the Facility Agreement in accordance with Clause 36.5 (Assignments by Banks) or Clause 36.6 (Transfers by
Banks) of the Facility Agreement,

 

and which has not
ceased to be a party to the Facility Agreement in accordance with the terms
thereof, or which is subsequently inscribed in the Loan Note Register as the
holder of a Loan Note.

 

“Facility Agreement” means the facility agreement dated 21 December 2005
and made between, among others, Hertz International, Ltd. as Parent, the
companies named therein as Original Borrowers and Original Guarantors, Hertz
Europe Limited as Coordinator, BNP Paribas and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc
as Mandated Lead Arrangers, CALYON as Co-Arranger, BNP Paribas, The Royal Bank
of Scotland plc and CALYON as Joint Bookrunners, BNP Paribas as Facility Agent,
Security Agent and as Global Coordinator and the financial institutions named
therein as Banks.  Terms defined in the
Facility Agreement shall have the same meaning in this notice.

 

“Loan Note” means a loan note issued under this Deed and
constituted by the rights under this Deed of the Bank entitled to such loan
note, title to which is recorded in and evidenced by an inscription in the Loan
Note Register.

 

“Loan Note Register” means the register maintained by the
Facility Agent for the purpose of Loan Notes in accordance with Clause 45.5
(Establishment of Loan Note Register) of
the Facility Agreement.

 

291

 

1.2          Interpretation

 

Clause 1 (Definitions and
Interpretation) of the Facility Agreement applies in this Deed as if
references to “this Agreement” were to this Deed.

 

2.             BANKS’ RIGHTS

 

This Deed is a deed
poll.  The Loan Notes are issued on the
condition that each Bank has the benefit of this Deed and the Loan Notes and is
entitled to enforce this Deed and the Loan Notes issued to it even though it is
not a party to this Deed or only becomes a Bank after the date of this
Deed.  Without limitation of the
foregoing, the Security Agent may, as agent of any Bank, enforce the rights of
such Bank under this Deed or any Loan Notes issued to such Bank.  Subject to the Finance Documents, the
Security Agent and each Bank may enforce its rights under this Deed
independently from the Security Agent and each other Bank.

 

3.             CREATION OF LOAN NOTES

 

The Australian
Borrower creates and issues Loan Notes in favour of each Bank by inscription in
the Loan Note Register and with an outstanding principal amount from time to
time equal to that Bank’s Proportion of all outstanding Advances under the [A1]
[A2] [Facility] [Facilities] from time to time as recorded in the Loan Note
Register and a maximum principal amount equal to that Bank’s Commitment under
the Facility.

 

4.             UNDERTAKING AND
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF DEBT

 

(a)           The Australian Borrower acknowledges
that it is indebted to each Bank for the outstanding principal amount of the
Loan Notes from time to time as recorded in the Loan Note Register as
outstanding to that Bank.

 

(b)           The Australian Borrower agrees to
pay principal and interest in respect of each Loan Note issued to a Bank in
accordance with the Facility Agreement, the Loan Note and this Deed.

 

(c)           The obligations of the Australian
Borrower under paragraph (b) above are discharged to the extent that
interest is paid on a Loan Note, or a Loan Note is redeemed, in accordance with
the Facility Agreement.

 

5.             CONSTITUTION OF LOAN NOTES

 

5.1          Constitution

 

The Loan Notes are
constituted by this Deed and inscription in the Loan Note Register.  Title to the Loan Notes is conclusively
evidenced for all purposes by inscription in the Loan Note Register subject to
rectification in the event of fraud or manifest error.  No certificate or other evidence of title to
a Loan Note will be issued by or on behalf of the Australian Borrower unless it
is required by the Facility Agent or it is required by law.

 

292

 

5.2          Issue of Loan Notes by
entry in Loan Note Register

 

A Loan Note is:

 

(a)           issued when details of the Loan Note
are first entered in the Loan Note Register; and

 

(b)           transferred when the details of the
transfer are entered in the Loan Note Register.

 

5.3          Status

 

(a)           The Loan Notes constitute direct,
unconditional and unsubordinated obligations of the Australian Borrower and
rank equally among themselves and at least equally with all unsecured and
unsubordinated obligations of the Australian Borrower (except liabilities
mandatorily preferred by law and subject to the Finance Documents).

 

(b)           Each Loan Note constitutes a
separate debt of the Australian Borrower to the Bank in whose name it is
recorded in the Loan Note Register, and each Bank is entitled to enforce these
obligations without having to join any other Bank or predecessor in title of a
Bank.

 

5.4          Transfer

 

The Loan Notes are
transferable only in accordance with the Facility Agreement and in relation to
any offer to transfer or resell a Loan Note, such offer must be made in a
manner which does not require disclosure for the purposes of Part 6D.2 of
the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).

 

6.             INTEREST

 

(a)           The Australian Borrower agrees to
pay interest in respect of Loan Notes at the rates and on the dates in accordance
with and on the terms of the Facility Agreement relating to the Advance in
respect of which the Loan Notes were issued. 
Interest will accrue from day to day on the outstanding principal amount
of each Loan Note corresponding to the outstanding principal amount of the
Advance in respect of which the Loan Notes were issued.

 

(b)           Interest payable on a Loan Note
shall be satisfied by the payment of the corresponding amount of interest
payable in respect of the Advance in respect of which the Loan Note was issued,
and vice versa.

 

7.             REPAYMENT

 

(a)           The Australian Borrower agrees to
redeem the Loan Notes in the amounts and currencies and on the dates on which
the Advance in respect of which the Loan Notes were issued are repayable or
prepayable in accordance with and on the terms of the Facility Agreement.

 

(b)           Without limiting paragraph (a), if
the Advances in respect of which the Loan Notes were issued become repayable or
prepayable, the Australian Borrower

 

293

 

shall repay or
prepay such Loan Notes at the time such Advances are repayable or repayable in
accordance with, and on the terms of, the Facility Agreement.

 

(c)           Any repayment or prepayment under
paragraph 7 above may be made only to the extent that the Minimum Principal
Loan Note Amount remains outstanding.

 

8.             PAYMENTS

 

The Australian
Borrower agrees to make all payments under a Loan Note in accordance with
Clause 31 (Payments) of the Facility Agreement.

 

9.             NOTICES

 

Clause 42 (Notices) of the Facility Agreement applies to this Deed.

 

10.          GOVERNING LAW

 

This Deed and the
Loan Notes are governed by English law. 
Clause 47 (Jurisdiction)
of the Facility Agreement applies to this Deed and the Loan Notes as though set
forth herein as if references to “Obligor” were to the Australian Borrower and
references to “this Agreement” were to this Deed.

SECURITY PRINCIPLES

 

The Security Documents (and
the security created or evidenced thereby) shall reflect the principles set out
herein.  Clause 21.16 (Group Acceding Guarantors) sets out the circumstances in
which Additional Guarantors are required to accede to the Agreement or
Designated Obligors are required to become Designated Obligors.  If the Additional Guarantors or Designated
Obligors are required to provide security under this Agreement, the Security
Documents entered into by such Additional Guarantors or Designated Obligors
shall also reflect the principles set out herein.

 

1.             DEFINED TERMS

 

1.1           General: 
Defined terms in the Security Documents shall mirror, to the extent
possible, those in this Agreement.

 

1.2           Obligations to be secured: 
The obligations to be secured under the Security Documents are the
Secured Liabilities (as defined below). 
The security is to be granted in favour of the Security Agent on behalf
of the Finance Parties under and as defined in this Agreement (to the extent
local law requirements permit).  For ease
of reference, the following definition shall be incorporated into each Security
Document:

 

“Secured Liabilities” means all present and future obligations
and liabilities (whether actual or contingent and whether owed jointly or
severally or in any other capacity whatsoever) of [each Obligor / the relevant
Obligor(s)] to the Finance Parties (or any of them) under the Finance Documents
(or any of them).

 

2.             UNDERTAKINGS /
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

This Agreement
contains general representations, warranties and undertakings and,
consequently, any Security Document shall not seek, to the extent possible and
having regard to local law, to duplicate these and shall be limited to those
specifically relating to the assets over which security is taken and/or to the
extent not already addressed by provisions in this Agreement.  If it is necessary to include undertakings
that are covered by this Agreement because the Security Document will be a
registered public document constituting notice to third parties, the
undertakings shall mirror the relevant undertakings in this Agreement or
cross-refer to them.

 

3.             CONSENTS AND APPROVALS

 

Each Obligor shall
use its reasonable commercial endeavours (including, without limitation,
conducting a “whitewash” (where appropriate)) to overcome any obstacles
relating to the granting of any Security or Guarantees to be provided pursuant
to this Agreement (other than any such obstacles that arise as a result of the
terms of any Vehicle Rental Concession), including any obstacles which may:

 

(a)           result in a breach of corporate
benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference, thin capitalisation or
capital maintenance rules, laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions
including any obligation not to endanger the

 

296

 

existence of any
Obligor or Guarantor) (in each case having binding effect on the relevant
Obligor) of any applicable jurisdiction; or

 

(b)           conflict with the fiduciary duties
of the directors or contravention with any legal prohibition or result in a
risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of the officer.

 

4.             ENFORCEABILITY

 

The security shall
be enforceable on the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing and
has not been waived under this Agreement and which has resulted in the Facility
Agent serving a notice under Clause 23.16(a) (Acceleration
and Cancellation) of this Agreement provided that no such notice
shall be required to be served with respect to the enforcement of certain
security including, amongst others, the conversion of a floating charge into a
fixed charge created pursuant to any Security Document governed by the laws of
Australia.

 

5.             APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS

 

The proceeds of
enforcement of the Security Documents shall be stated to be applied in
accordance with the provisions of the Intercreditor Deed.

 

6.             SECURITY OVER SHARES

 

6.1           Where possible under local law,
equitable mortgages (or the equivalent in local jurisdictions) over shares will
be granted to the Security Agent and will be perfected pursuant to local law
requirements.

 

6.2           Share certificates shall be
delivered to the Security Agent in respect of certificated stock together
(where customary and available) with pre-stamped share transfer forms executed
in blank or in all other cases, where customary, shares certificates endorsed
(in blank).

 

6.3           The share security shall contain
provisions to ensure that (a) the security has become enforceable pursuant
to paragraph 4 above, the grantor of the security is entitled to receive
dividends and exercise voting rights provided that the grantor of the security
shall not exercise such voting rights in any manner, or otherwise permit or
agree to any (x) variation of the rights attaching to or conferred by any of
the shares or (y) increase in the issued share capital of any company whose
shares are charged pursuant to the share pledge, which, in either case and in
the reasonable opinion of the Security Agent, would prejudice the ability of
the Security Agent or the Finance Parties to realise the security created by
the share pledge or (z) cause an Event of Default to occur, and (b) after
the security has been enforced, the voting and dividend receipt rights may be
exercised by the Security Agent.

 

6.4           Unless the restriction is required
by law or regulation, the constitutional documents of the company whose shares
have been charged will be amended to remove any restriction on the transfer or
the registration of the transfer of the shares on enforcement of the security
granted over them.

 

297

 

7.             SECURITY OVER RECEIVABLES

 

7.1           The Group companies shall be
entitled (without the further consent of the Finance Parties) to use the
proceeds of the receivables until the security has been enforced.

 

7.2           No Group company shall be required
to notify any third party debtors which are not members of the Group to any
contracts that have been assigned and/or charged under a Security Document if
such notification would, in the reasonable opinion of the Parent, materially
impede or prejudice the normal operations of the business of the relevant Group
company.  Once the security has been
enforced, notifications will be made as required by the Security Agent.

 

8.             MATERIAL CONTRACTS

 

The Group shall be
able to deal with contracts as permitted under this Agreement and prior to the
Security becoming enforceable pursuant to paragraph 4 above.  No member of the Group or other Obligor shall
be required to notify counterparties which are not members of the Group or
other Obligors to any contracts that have been charged/assigned under a
Security Document that such contract has been so charged/assigned (prior to the
security being enforced) if the Parent notifies the Security Agent in writing
that, in the reasonable opinion of the Parent, such notification is likely to
materially prejudice the relationship the Group companies have with such
counterparty.  Following the security
being enforced, notifications will be made as reasonably required by the
Security Agent.

 

9.             INSURANCE

 

9.1           Each Obligor shall use its
reasonable efforts to procure that the Security Agent is named as an additional
insured and loss payee with respect to each insurance maintained by it and by
each of its subsidiaries.

 

9.2           Following the security being
enforced, notifications to any insurer party to any insurance policy that has
been assigned and/or charged under a Security Document will be made as reasonably
required by the Security Agent.

 

10.          RELEASE OF SECURITY

 

Each security
document shall contain a release clause requiring the Security Agent to release
the security constituted thereby if any of the following events occur:

 

10.1         Upon (a) the Secured Liabilities
being discharged in full and none of the secured parties being under any
further actual or contingent obligation to make advances or provide other
financial accommodation to the security providers or any other person under any
of the Finance Documents, or (b) the security provider ceasing to be both
a Borrower and a Guarantor subject to, and in accordance with, this Agreement,
the Security Agent shall, at the request and cost of the Parent, release and
cancel the Security of such security provider and procure the reassignment to
the security provider of the property and assets assigned to the Security Agent
