the Vessel, of being received towards repairing the relevant Vessel in accordance with the relevant Security Documents (or otherwise are used to reimburse the Borrower for amounts made for such repair) and during which time the Borrower, the Parent,

	8.	 Interest 

  

	8.1	 Calculation of interest 

The rate of interest on the Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable: 

 

	 	(a)	 Margin; and 

  

	 	(b)	 LIBOR. 

  

	8.2	 Payment of interest 

The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on the Loan on the last day of each Interest Period. 

 

	8.3	 Default interest 

If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date (after the expiration of any applicable grace
period under Clause 26.1 (Non-payment)), interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is 2% per annum
higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non- payment, constituted the Utilisation in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest
Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent. Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be
compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable. 
  

	8.4	 Notification of rates of interest 

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 

 

	9.	 Interest Periods 

 

	9.1	 Length of Interest Periods 

 

	 	(a)	 Each Interest Period for the Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the last day of
its preceding Interest Period and end on the next Quarter Date. 

  

	 	(b)	 If an Interest Period would otherwise overrun the Termination Date, it will be shortened so that it ends on the
Termination Date. 

  
 - 42 - 

	9.2	 Non-Business Days

in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 
  

	10.	 Changes to the calculation of interest 

 

	10.1	 Absence of quotations 

Subject to Clause 10.2 (Market disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does
not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks. 
  

	10.2	 Market disruption 

 

	 	(a)	 If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to the Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest
on each Lender’s share of the Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Margin; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to
be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select. 

 

	 	(b)	 In this Agreement “Market Disruption Event” means: 

 

	 	(i)	 at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Screen Rate is not available and
none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Agent to determine LIBOR for Dollars for the relevant Interest Period; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives
notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loan exceed fifty per cent. (50%) of the Loan) that the cost to it or them of obtaining matching deposits in the Relevant Interbank Market would be in excess of LIBOR.

  

	10.3	 Alternative basis of interest or funding 

 

	 	(a)	 If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent so requires or the Borrower so requires, the Agent and the
Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. 

 

	 	(b)	 Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall, with the prior consent of all the
Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties. 

  

	10.4	 Break Costs 

  

	 	(a)	 The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by a Finance Party (or at the time of
prepayment of the relevant amount under Clause 7 (Prepayment and cancellation), pay to that Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of the Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the last day of
an Interest Period for the Loan or Unpaid Sum. 

  
 - 43 - 

	 	(b)	 Each Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate
confirming the amount of its Break Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue, provided that neither the Original Lenders nor any other Lenders from time to time managed by Hayfin Capital Management LLP shall be entitled to claim Break
Costs.

	11.3	 Commitment fee 

 

	 	(a)	 The Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the account of the Lenders) a commitment fee computed at the rate of
forty per cent. (40%) of the Margin per annum on the aggregate amount of each Lender’s Available Commitments in respect of the Facility from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of (i) the Utilisation Date if all Commitments are
fully drawn on that date or (ii) the final day of the Availability Period (“Commitment Fee”). 

  

	 	(b)	 The accrued Commitment Fee is payable on the Utilisation Date or, if any amount of the Facility is unutilised
as of the expiry of the Availability Period, the Commitment Fee in respect of the Available Commitment shall be paid on the earlier of: 

  

	 	(i)	 the last day of the Availability Period; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 the date on which the cancellation of the Available Commitment is effective. 

 

	 	(c)	 The Agent shall be entitled to deduct any accrued Commitment Fee which has become due and payable and which
remains unpaid from the proceeds of the Utilisations and apply it in payment of such fees. 

  

	 	(d)	 No Commitment Fee shall accrue for the account of a Lender on any Available Commitment of that Lender in
respect of any day on which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

	 	(a)	 an Obligor shall promptly upon becoming aware that it or any other Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that

	 	(c)	 if any Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall (and shall procure that such other

	 	(d)	 within thirty (30) days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that
Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall (and shall procure that such other Obligor which is a Subsidiary of that Obligor shall) deliver to the Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to
that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority. 

  

	12.3	 Tax indemnity 

 

	 	(a)	 The Borrower shall (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent) pay to a Protected Party an

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

  

	 	(b)	 that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit, that Finance Party shall pay an amount to the
Borrower or to that other Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been made by the
Borrower or that other Obligor. 

  

	12.5	 Stamp taxes 

The Borrower shall pay and, within three (3) Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability

	12.6	 VAT 

  

	 	(a)	 All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party or any Obligor to a Finance Party
which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to Clause 12.6(b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on
any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party or any Obligor under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party or Obligor must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to
and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to the Borrower). 

 

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

  
 - 46 - 

	 	(i)	 (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant
Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this Clause 12.6(b)(i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any
credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and 

 

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

  

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

  

	 	(d)	 Any reference in this Clause 12.6 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a
group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value
Added Tax Act 1994). 

  

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

	 	(a)	 Subject to Clause 12.7(c) below, each Party shall, within ten (10) Business Days of a reasonable request
by another Party: 

  

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

 

	 	(A)	 a FATCA Exempt Party; or 

 

	 	(B)	 not a FATCA Exempt Party; 

 

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

  

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

  

	 	(b)	 If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to Clause 12.7(a)(i)(A) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and
it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly. 

  
 - 47 - 

	 	(c)	 Clause 12.7(a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and Clause 12.7(a)(iii) shall not
oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: 

  

	 	(i)	 any law or regulation; 

 

	 	(ii)	 any fiduciary duty; or 

 

	 	(iii)	 any duty of confidentiality. 

 

	 	(d)	 If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or
other information requested in accordance with Clause 12.7(a)(i) or 12.7(a)(ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 12.7(c) applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments
under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 

 

	 	(e)	 If an Obligor is a US Tax Obligor or the Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA or any
other applicable law or regulation require it, each Lender shall, within ten (10) Business Days of: 

  

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

  

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

supply to the Agent: 
  

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

  

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

  

	 	(f)	 The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver
it receives from a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.7(e) above to the Borrower. 

  

	 	(g)	 If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Agent
by a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.7(e) is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Agent
unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Agent). The Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Borrower.

 The Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives
from a Lender pursuant to Clause 12.7(e) or 12.7(g) without further verification. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with Clause 12.7(e), 12.7(f) or 12.7(g).

with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction. 

 

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

transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment mechanics).

	 	(b)	 Each of the Agent and the Security Agent shall be entitled to request instructions, or clarification of any
instruction, from the Majority Lenders (or, if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties, from that Finance Party or group of Finance Parties) as to whether, and in what

it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by the Agent or the Security Agent. 

 

	 	(e)	 Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the liability of the Agent,
the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate, any liability of the Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver or Delegate arising under or in connection with any Finance Document or the Security Property shall be limited to the amount of actual loss

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

	32.	 Sharing among the Finance Parties 

 

	32.1	 Payments to Finance Parties 

If a Finance Party (a “Recovering Finance Party”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance
with Clause 33 (Payment mechanics) (a “Recovered Amount”) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then: 
  

	 	(a)	 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or
recovery to the Agent; 

  

	 	(b)	 the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance
Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to
the receipt, recovery or distribution; and 

  

	 	(c)	 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the
Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause
33.6 (Application of Receipts – Partial Payments). 

  

	32.2	 Redistribution of payments 

The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other
than the Recovering Finance Party) (the “Sharing Finance Parties”) in accordance with Clause 33.6 (Application of Receipts – Partial Payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties. 

 

	32.3	 Recovering Finance Party’s rights 

On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 32.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from
an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor. 

 

	32.4	 Reversal of redistribution 

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering
Finance Party, then: 
  

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

  

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

  

	32.5	 Exceptions 

  

	 	(a)	 This Clause 32 (Sharing among the Finance Parties) shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering
Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor. 

  
 - 116 - 

	 	(b)	 A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering
Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if: 

  

	 	(i)	 it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did
not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings. 

  

	33.	 Payment mechanics 

 

	33.1	 Payments to the Agent 

 

	 	(a)	 On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that
Obligor or Lender shall make the same available to the Agent (unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document) for value on the due date at the time and in such funds specified by the Agent as being customary at the time for settlement of
transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment. 

  

	 	(b)	 Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in
relation to euro, in a principal financial centre in such Participating Member State or London, as specified by the Agent) and with such bank as the Agent, in each case, specifies. 

 

	33.2	 Distributions by the Agent 

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 33.3 (Distributions to an
Obligor) and Clause 33.4 (Clawback and pre- funding) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement
(in the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal financial centre
of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London, as specified by that Party). 
  

	33.3	 Distributions to an Obligor 

The Agent may (with the consent of an Obligor or in accordance with Clause 34 (Set-off)) apply
any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so
applied. 
  

	33.4	 Clawback and pre-funding 

 

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

 

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

  

	 	(c)	 If the Agent is willing to make available amounts for the account of the Borrower before receiving funds from
the Lenders then if and to the extent that the Agent does so but it proves to be the case that it does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to the Borrower: 

  
 - 117 - 

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

  

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

 

	33.5	 Impaired Agent 

 

	 	(a)	 If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a
payment under the Finance Documents to the Agent in accordance with Clause 33.1 (Payments to the Agent) may instead either: 

  

	 	(i)	 pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s); or 

 

	 	(ii)	 if in its absolute discretion it considers that it is not reasonably practicable to pay that amount direct to
the required recipient(s), pay that amount or the relevant part of that amount to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank (as defined in paragraph (f) below) and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is
continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment (the “Paying Party”) and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents
(the “Recipient Party” or “Recipient Parties”). 

 In each case such payments must be
made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents. 
  

	 	(b)	 All interest accrued on the amount standing to the credit of the trust account shall be for the benefit of the
Recipient Party or the Recipient Parties pro rata to their respective entitlements. 

  

	 	(c)	 A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 33.5 shall be discharged of the relevant
payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with respect to the amounts standing to the credit of the trust account. 

  

	 	(d)	 Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Agent in accordance with Clause 29.12 (Resignation of the Agent
or the Security Agent), each Paying Party shall (other than to the extent that that Party has given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (e) below) give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer
the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Agent for distribution to the relevant Recipient Party or Recipient Parties in accordance with Clause 33.2 (Distributions by the Agent). 

 

	 	(e)	 A Paying Party shall, promptly upon request by a Recipient Party and to the extent: 

 

	 	(i)	 that it has not given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (d) above; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 that it has been provided with the necessary information by that Recipient Party, 

give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the relevant amount (together with any accrued
interest) to that Recipient Party. 

  
 - 118 - 

	 	(f)	 For the purposes of this Clause, an “Acceptable Bank” is a bank or financial institution which has a
rating for its long-term unsecured and non-credit-enhanced debt obligations of A- or higher by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services or Fitch Ratings Ltd or A3
or higher by Moody’s Investor Services Limited or a comparable rating from an internationally recognised credit rating agency. 

  

	33.6	 Application of Receipts – Partial Payments 

If the Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under the Finance
Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order: 
  

	 	(a)	 FIRST, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of, and any other amounts owing
to, the Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver and any Delegate under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(b)	 SECOND, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest and fees due but unpaid to the Lenders under
this Agreement; 

  

	 	(c)	 THIRD, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal due but unpaid to the Lenders under this Agreement; and

  

	 	(d)	 FOURTH, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due to any Finance Party but unpaid under the Finance
Documents. 

  

	33.7	 No set-off by Obligors 

All payments to be made by an Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction
for) set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	33.8	 Business Days 

 

	 	(a)	 Any payment (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any payment under Clause 24.5(a)(i)) which is due to be
made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 

 

	 	(b)	 During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal or Unpaid Sum under this Agreement interest
is payable on the principal or Unpaid Sum at the rate payable on the original due date.

or Taxes are incurred. 

  

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

  

	33.10	 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 Agent (after consultation with the Borrower); and 

  
 - 119 - 

	 	(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 Agent (acting reasonably). 

  

	 	(b)	 If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will, to the extent the Agent (acting
reasonably and after consultation with the Borrower) 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.

  

	33.11	 Disruption to Payment Systems etc. 

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

	 	(a)	 the Agent may, and shall if requested to do so by the Borrower, consult with the Borrower with a view to
agreeing such changes to the operation or administration of the Facility as the Agent may deem necessary in the circumstances; 

  

	 	(b)	 the Agent shall not be obliged to consult with the Borrower in relation to any changes mentioned in paragraph

	 	(c)	 the Agent may consult with the Finance Parties in relation to any changes mentioned in paragraph (a) but
shall not be obliged to do so if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances; 

  

	 	(d)	 any such changes agreed upon by the Agent and the Borrower shall (whether or not it is finally determined that
a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties as an amendment to (or, as the case may be, waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 40 (Amendments and waivers);

  

	 	(e)	 the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any
liability whatsoever (including, without limitation for negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take,
any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 33.11; and 

  

	 	(f)	 the Agent shall notify the Finance Parties of all changes agreed pursuant to paragraph (d) above.

  

	34.	 Set-off

and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary. 

  

	 	(c)	 This Clause 44.1 is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. As a result, no Finance Party shall be
prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Finance Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. 

 

	44.2	 Service of process 

 

	 	(a)	 Without prejudice to any other mode of service allowed under any relevant law, each Transaction Obligor:

  
 - 131 - 

	 	(i)	 irrevocably appoints GSLS acting through its office from time to time currently at 25 Wilton Place, London SW1V
1LW, as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document; and 

  

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

  

	 	(b)	 If any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service
of process, the Borrower (on behalf of all the Transaction Obligors) must promptly (and in any event within fifteen (15) days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Agent. Failing this, the Agent may
appoint another agent for this purpose. 

 THIS AGREEMENT has been entered into on the date stated at the beginning of this
Agreement.

	 	16.3	 The Company’s obligations under clause 16.1 are subject to and conditional on: 

 

	 	(A)	 the Executive entering into, and complying with the terms of, a settlement agreement with the Company in a form
reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Executive pursuant to which the Executive will waive all claims that he may have against the Company, the Listed Company or any other Group Company arising from his employment or its termination and any
directorships or other offices and their termination; and 

  

	 	(B)	 the Executive’s compliance with his material obligations under this Agreement (including, but not limited
to, his obligations under clause 13). In the event that the Executive commits any breach of such material obligations, the Company shall be released from its obligations under clause 16.1, and in the event that the Executive commits any such breach
following receipt of any payment pursuant to clause 16.1, or the Company becomes aware of any such breach following the Executive having received a payment under clause 16.1, an amount equal to the payment made under clause 16.1 shall be immediately
repayable by the Executive to the Company as a debt. 

  
 13 

	 	16.4	 In the event of a dispute between the Parties as to whether there was Cause to terminate Executive’s
employment or there was Good Reason for Executive to resign, the full amount of termination payments under clause 16.1 shall be placed into escrow until such time that there is a judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction that Cause or Good
Reason existed, or the Parties otherwise agree in writing that the amount may be released. 

  

	 	16.5	 In the event of death of the Executive, the Company’s obligations hereunder shall automatically cease and
terminate; provided, however, that within fifteen (15) days the Company shall pay to the Executive’s heirs or personal representatives the Executive’s basic salary and any unpaid bonuses (in accordance with the terms of the applicable
Bonus Scheme Agreement) accrued to the date of death including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Severance Payment and any other amounts payable to the Executive under this Agreement as if the Executive had resigned for Good Reason; until the final
determination of the identity of the heirs, the Company shall have the right to deposit any such amount with a third party escrow agent appointed by the Company or with the Greek Deposits and Loans Fund.

	 	18.1	 For the purposes of this clause 18 the following words and expressions shall have the following meanings:

know-how, confidential information, database rights, and rights in trademarks and designs (whether registered or unregistered), (ii) applications for registration, and the right to apply for registration, for
any of the same, and (iii) all other intellectual property rights and equivalent or similar forms of protection existing anywhere in the world; 

“Invention” means any method, idea, concept, experimental work, theme, invention, discovery, process, model, formula, prototype,

devising or discovering of the same and shall at the expense of the Company give all such explanations, demonstrations and instructions as the Company may deem appropriate to enable the full and effectual working, production and use of the same.

  

	 	18.3	 The Executive hereby assigns (in so far as title has not automatically vested in the Company through the

throughout the world in respect of all works, designs or materials (including, without limitation, source code and object code for software) originated, conceived, written or made by the Executive during the period of his employment (except only
those works or designs originated, conceived, written or made by the Executive wholly outside his normal working hours which are wholly unconnected with any business activity undertaken or planned to be undertaken by the Company, the Listed Company
or any other Group Company) to hold unto the Company absolutely. The aforementioned assignment shall include the right to sue for damages and/or other remedies in respect of any infringement (including prior to the date hereof).

  
 16

copyright or design right is vested in the Company whether by this clause 18 or otherwise.

Invention which is the property of the Company or the Listed Company without the prior written consent of the Company. The Executive shall during or after the termination of his employment with the Company, at the request and expense of the Company,
provide all reasonable assistance in obtaining, maintaining and enforcing such Intellectual Property Right or in relation to any proceeding relating to the Company’s or the Listed Company’s right, title or interest in any such Intellectual

his grievance before the Board or the board of directors of the parent company of any group of which the Company or the Listed Company is a member from time to time (in this clause 19, “Ultimate Board”) in writing, who will afford the
Executive the opportunity of a full hearing before the board or a committee of the board or the Ultimate Board (as appropriate) whose decision on such grievance shall be final and binding. 

 

	 	19.2	 The Company’s and the Listed Company’s usual disciplinary procedures do not apply to the Executive.
In the event that any disciplinary action is to be taken against the Executive, any hearing in respect thereof will be conducted by such director of the Company, the Listed Company or the parent company of any group of which the Company or the
Listed Company is a member from time to time as the Board or the Ultimate Board may in its reasonable discretion nominate. If the Executive seeks to appeal against any disciplinary action taken against him he should do so to the Ultimate Board
submitting full written grounds for his appeal to the Chairman of the Ultimate Board within 7 days of the action appealed against. The decision of the Ultimate Board or a delegated committee thereof shall be final and binding. For the avoidance of
doubt, the Executive has no contractual right to either a disciplinary hearing or appeal. 

  

	 	19.3	 The Company may in its absolute discretion suspend the Executive from some or all of his duties (and if

	 	20.2	 The Executive shall have no claim against the Company, the Listed Company or any other Group Company in respect
of the termination of his employment hereunder in relation to any provision in any Stock Incentive Plan which has the effect of requiring the Executive to sell, transfer or give up any shares, securities, options or rights issued to him thereunder
at any price or which causes any options or other rights granted to him thereunder to become prematurely exercisable or to lapse by reason of his termination or because he has given or received notice of termination.

conditions of the employment of the Executive hereunder shall not be applicable. 

  

	 	20.4	 For the avoidance of doubt any payments made to or other benefits provided to the Executive or his family which

they shall be deemed to form part of the Executive’s contract of employment. 

  
 18 

	 	20.5	 If any clause or provision in this Agreement is found by a court of competent jurisdiction or other competent

	 	20.7	 No term of this Agreement is enforceable by a third party who is not a party to this Agreement.

  

	 	20.8	 No amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement or any of its provisions shall be binding upon the

	 	20.9	 Any amendment or change on the applicable law including without limitation tax and social security laws
occurring after the date of this Agreement which may adversely affect any amount payable to the Executive by the Company under this Agreement, shall be for the Company’s account in its capacity as employer which shall be obliged to gross up any
such amount payable to the Executive accordingly so that the net amount received by the Executive from time to time remains the same. 

  

	21.	 NOTICES 

  

	 	21.1	 Without prejudice to any other mode of service provided under the law, any notice or communication given or
required under this Agreement may be served by personal delivery or by leaving the same at or by sending the same through the recognized international overnight delivery service in the case of the Company to its registered office from time to time
