 This Amendment Number One is made as
of September 21, 2007, to the Employment Agreement dated as of July 22, 1999 (the “Agreement”), by and between Surrey Bank & Trust and Pedro A. Pequeno II. This Amendment is being made solely to conform the provisions of
the Agreement with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
 1.
    Paragraphs 10(a) and (b) of the Agreement are amended to read as follows: 
 “(a) In the
event of a termination of the Officer’s employment in connection with, or within twenty-four (24) months after, a “Change in Control” (as defined in Subparagraph (d) below) other than for Cause (as defined in Paragraph 8),
the Officer shall be entitled to receive the amount set forth in Subparagraph (c) below. Said sum shall be payable as provided in Subparagraph (e) below. 
 (b) In addition to any rights the Officer might have to terminate this Agreement contained in Paragraph 8, the Officer shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon the occurrence of any
of the following events (the “Termination Events”) within twenty-four months following a Change in Control: 
 (i) Officer is assigned any duties and/or responsibilities that are inconsistent with or constitute a demotion or reduction in his position, duties, responsibilities or status at the time of the Change in Control or
with his reporting responsibilities or titles with the Bank in effect at such time, regardless of Officer’s resulting position; or 
 (ii) Officer’s annual base salary rate is reduced below the annual amount in effect as of the effective date of a Change in Control or as the same shall have been increased from time to time following such
effective date; or 
 (iii) Officer’s life insurance, medical or hospitalization insurance, disability
insurance, stock options plans, stock purchase plans, deferred compensation plans, management retention plans, retirement plans or similar plans or benefits being provided by the Bank to the Officer as of the effective date of the Change in Control
are reduced in their level, scope or coverage, or any such insurance, plans or benefits are eliminated, unless such reduction or elimination applies proportionately to all salaried employees of the Bank who participated in such benefits prior to
such Change in Control; or 
 (iv) Officer is transferred to a location which is an unreasonable distance from
his current principal work location without the Officer’s express written consent. 
 A Termination Event shall be deemed to have
occurred on the date such action or event is implemented or takes effect.” 
 2.     Paragraph 10(d) of the
Agreement is amended to read as follows: 
 “For the purposes of this Agreement, the term Change in Control shall mean
any of the following events: 
 (i) Any person, or more than one person acting as a group, accumulates
ownership of Surrey Bancorp’s common stock constituting more than 50% of the total fair market value or total voting power of Surrey Bancorp’s common stock, 
 (ii) Any person, or more than one person acting as a group, acquires within a 12-month period ownership of Surrey
Bancorp’s common stock possessing 30% or more of the total voting power of Surrey Bancorp’s common stock; 
 (iii) A majority of Surrey Bancorp’s Board of Directors is replaced during any 12-month period by directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed in advance by a majority of Surrey Bancorp’s Board of Directors before the

acting as a group, acquires assets from Surrey Bancorp having a total gross fair market value equal to or exceeding 40% of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of Surrey Bancorp immediately before the acquisition or acquisitions.
For this purpose, “gross fair market value” means the value of Surrey Bancorp’s assets, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with the assets. 
 Notwithstanding the other provisions of this Paragraph 10, a transaction or event shall not be considered a Change in Control if, prior to the
consummation or occurrence of such transaction or event, the Officer and the Bank agree in writing that the same shall not be treated as a Change in Control for purposes of this Agreement.” 
 3.     No other terms and conditions of the Agreement are affected by this Amendment. 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment (Surrey
Bank & Trust by its duly authorized officer) effective as of the day and year first written above.

 the Facility Agent must give notice to the Company to that effect promptly and in any event before 11.00 a.m. on that day.

 is its
Dollar Amount.

	 	(i)	if the Loan is denominated in U.S. Dollars, its amount; 

  

	 	(ii)	if the Loan is a Term Loan denominated in an Optional Currency, its equivalent in U.S. Dollars (calculated on the basis of the Agent’s Dollar Rate of Exchange one Business Day
before the Rate Fixing Day for the proposed or current Term of that Term Loan) as if it had first been drawn down and had remained denominated in U.S. Dollars, adjusted to reflect any repayment or prepayment of that Term Loan; or

  

	 	(iii)	in the case of any other Loan denominated in an Optional Currency, its equivalent in U.S. Dollars calculated on the basis of the Agent’s Dollar Rate of Exchange one Business
Day before the Rate Fixing Day for that Term. 

  

	(c)	The rate of exchange to be used for calculating the amount in U.S. Dollars of any repayment or prepayment of a Term Loan in an Optional Currency is that last used for determining
the current amount of that Term Loan in that Optional Currency. 

  

	6.6	Term Loan - change of currency 

  

	(a)	A Term Loan will remain denominated in the same currency through successive Terms, unless the currency is changed under paragraph (b) below. 

  

 Page 15

	 	(ii)	the Lenders must, subject to the terms of this Agreement, re-advance the Term Loan in the currency in which the relevant Borrower requires the Term Loan to be denominated for the
next Term (the new currency). 

 The amount of the Loan in the new currency will be calculated by reference to its Dollar Amount.

  

	(d)	Alternatively, if the Facility Agent and the relevant Borrower agree: 

  

	 	(i)	the Facility Agent may apply the amount (or so much of that amount as is necessary) of the Term Loan in the new currency to purchase an amount of the old currency sufficient to
discharge the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay the Term Loan in the old currency; 

  

	 	(ii)	the Facility Agent must apply any amount of the old currency purchased under sub-paragraph (i) above towards repaying the Term Loan in the old currency;

the excess.

	(f)	The Company shall indemnify the Facility Agent against any loss or liability incurred by the Facility Agent as a result of any foreign exchange contract entered into for the purpose
of this Clause. 

  

	6.7	Term Loan - continuing in same Optional Currency 

  

	(a)	If a Term Loan is to be denominated in the same Optional Currency during two successive Terms, the Facility Agent must calculate the amount of the Term Loan in the Optional Currency
for the second of those Terms. 

  

 Page 16 

	(b)	The amount of the Term Loan in the Optional Currency for the second Term will be the amount determined by notionally converting into that Optional Currency the Dollar Amount of the
Term Loan on the basis of the Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange one Business Day before the Rate Fixing Day for that Term. 

  

	(c)	If the amount calculated is less than the existing amount of that Term Loan in the Optional Currency during the first Term, the relevant Borrower must pay to the Facility Agent for
distribution to the Lenders of that Term Loan in the Pro Rata Share, subject to paragraph (e) below, on the last day of the first Term an amount equal to the difference. 

  

	(d)	If the amount calculated is more than the existing amount of that Term Loan in the Optional Currency during the first Term, each Lender must pay to the Facility Agent for
distribution to the Lenders of that Term Loan in the Pro Rata Share, subject to paragraph (e) below, on the last day of the first Term its Pro Rata Share of the difference. 

  

	(e)	If the calculation made by the Facility Agent under paragraph (a) above shows that the amount of the Term Loan in the Optional Currency has increased or decreased by less than
five per cent. since it was borrowed or (if later) the most recent adjustment under paragraph (c) or (d) above, no payment is required under paragraph (c) or (d) above. 

  

	6.8	Conditions precedent 

 The obligation of each Lender under this
Clause to re-advance its share of a Term Loan in a new currency or make any payment increasing the amount of a Term Loan in an Optional Currency is subject to the condition precedent that on the date of the relevant payment: 
  

	(a)	the Repeating Representations are correct in all material respects; and 

  

	(b)	no Default is outstanding or would result from that payment. 

  

	6.9	Notification 

 The Facility Agent must notify the Lenders and the
Company of the relevant Dollar Amount (and the applicable Agent’s Dollar Rate of Exchange) promptly after they are ascertained.

	(b)	The Term Out Notice shall: 

  

	 	(i)	specify the Loan(s) (being Loans outstanding under Facility A on the date of the Term Out Notice, the Maturity Dates of which fall after the proposed Term Out Date) in relation to
which the Term Out Option is being exercised; and

 Page 21 

	9.3	Margin adjustments 

  

	(a)	Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, beginning on the date of delivery of the Compliance Certificate provided in relation to the financial year ending on
31 December 2007, the Margin will be determined by reference to the table below and the information set out in the most recent Compliance Certificate provided under Clause 18.2 (Compliance Certificate): 

  

					
	 Column 1
Ratio of Consolidated Total Net Borrowings to Consolidated EBITDA
	  	Column 2
Margin (per cent. per annum)
	  	Facility A Term
Loans	  	Facility B
	 Greater than 2.0:1
	  	0.275	  	0.275
	 Less than or equal to 2.0:1 but greater than 1.0:1
	  	0.25	  	0.25
	 Less than or equal to 1.0:1
	  	0.20	  	0.20

  

	(b)	The Margin in respect of Revolving Loans under Facility A shall, at all times be 0.20 per cent. per annum. 

  

	(c)	For so long as: 

  

	 	(i)	the Company is in default of its obligation under this Agreement to provide a Compliance Certificate; or 

  

	 	(ii)	an Event of Default is outstanding, 

 the Margin for each
Facility will be the highest rate applicable to that Facility set out in paragraph (a) above. 
  

	(d)	Any change to the Margin under this Subclause will take effect in relation to a Loan on the second Business Day after delivery of the relevant Compliance Certificate.

  

	(e)	The Margin in respect of any Facility A Loan converted in accordance with Clause 7.2 (Term Out Option) shall be the Margin for Revolving Loans under Facility A (set out at
paragraph (b) above) until the Term Out Date, on which date it shall become the Margin for Facility A Loans (set out at paragraph (a) above). 

  

	9.4	Interest on overdue amounts 

  

	(a)	If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under the Finance Documents, it must immediately on demand by the Facility Agent pay interest on the overdue amount from its due
date up to the date of actual payment, both before and after judgment. 

  

	(b)	Interest on an overdue amount is payable at a rate determined by the Facility Agent to be one per cent. per annum above the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount
had, during the period of non payment, constituted a Loan under the Facility to which the overdue amount relates in the currency of the overdue amount. For this purpose, the Facility Agent may (acting reasonably): 

  

	 	(i)	select successive Terms of any duration of up to three months; and 

  

 Page 22 

	 	(ii)	determine the appropriate Rate Fixing Day for that Term. 

  

	(c)	Notwithstanding paragraph (b) above, if the overdue amount is a principal amount of a Loan and becomes due and payable prior to the last day of its current Term, then:

  

	 	(i)	the first Term for that overdue amount will be the unexpired portion of that Term; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the rate of interest on the overdue amount for that first Term will be one per cent. per annum above the rate then payable on that Loan. 

 After the expiry of the first Term for that overdue amount, the rate on the overdue amount will be calculated in accordance with paragraph (b) above.

  

	(d)	Interest (if unpaid) on an overdue amount will be compounded with that overdue amount at the end of each of its Terms but will remain immediately due and payable.

  

	9.5	Notification of rates of interest 

 The Facility Agent must promptly
notify each relevant Party of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement. 
  

	9.6	Minimum Interest 

  

	(a)	The rates of interest provided for in this Agreement, including, without limitation this Clause 9 (Interest), are minimum interest rates. 

  

	(b)	When entering into this Agreement, the Parties have assumed that the interest payable at the rates set out in this Clause 9 or in other Clauses of this Agreement is not and will not
become subject to Swiss anticipatory tax (Verrechnungssteuer; Swiss Withholding Tax). Notwithstanding that the Parties do not anticipate that any payment of interest will be subject to Swiss Withholding Tax, they agree that, in the
event that Swiss Withholding Tax should be imposed on interest payments by a Swiss Borrower, the payment of interest due by such a Swiss Borrower shall be increased to an amount which (after making any deduction of the Non-refundable Portion (as
defined below) of Swiss Withholding Tax) results in a payment to each Lender entitled to such payment of an amount equal to the payment which would have been due had no deduction of Swiss Withholding Tax been required. For this purpose, the Swiss
Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the full grossed-up interest amount. 

  

	(c)	For the purposes of this Clause 9.6, Non-refundable Portion of Swiss Withholding Tax shall mean Swiss Withholding Tax at the standard rate (being, as at the date hereof,
35 per cent.) unless a tax ruling issued by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration confirms that, in relation to a specific Lender based on an applicable double tax treaty, the non-refundable portion is a specified lower rate in which case such
lower rate shall be applied in relation to such Lender. 

  

	(d)	Each Swiss Borrower shall provide to the Facility Agent the documents required by law or applicable double taxation treaties for the Lenders to prepare claims for the refund of any
Swiss Withholding Tax so deducted. 

  

	10.	TERMS 

  

	10.1	Selection - Term Loans 

  

	(a)	Each Term Loan has successive Terms. 

  

 Page 23 

	(b)	The first Term for each Term Loan shall be the same as the Term of the Revolving Loan converted to produce that Term Loan on the Term Out Date, and will have the same commencement
date.

that Term. Subject to paragraph (b) above, each Term for a Term Loan will start on the expiry of its preceding Term. 

  

	(d)	If the Company or a Borrower fails to deliver a Selection Notice under paragraph (b) above, that Term will, subject to the other provisions of this Clause, be one month.

by a Borrower (or the Company on its behalf) and the Lenders. 

  

	10.3	No overrunning the Final Maturity Date

overrun the relevant Final Maturity Date, it will be shortened so that it ends on the relevant Final Maturity Date. 
  

	10.4	Other adjustments 

 The Facility Agent and the Company may enter
into such other arrangements as they may agree for the adjustment of Terms and the consolidation and/or splitting of Loans. 
  

	10.5	Notification 

 The Facility Agent must notify the relevant Borrower
and the Lenders of the duration of each Term promptly after ascertaining its duration. 
  

	11.	MARKET DISRUPTION 

  

	11.1	Failure of a Reference Bank to supply a rate 

 If IBOR is to be
calculated by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a rate by 12.00 noon (local time) on a Rate Fixing Day, the applicable IBOR will, subject as provided below, be calculated on the basis of the rates of the remaining
Reference Banks. 
  

	11.2	Market disruption 

  

	(a)	In this Clause, each of the following events is a market disruption event: 

  

	 	(i)	IBOR is to be calculated by reference to the Reference Banks but no, or only one, Reference Bank supplies a rate by 12.00 noon (local time) on the Rate Fixing Day; or

  

 Page 24 

	 	(ii)	the Facility Agent receives by close of business on the Rate Fixing Day notification from Lenders whose shares in the relevant Loan exceed 50 per cent. of that Loan that the
cost to them of obtaining matching deposits in the relevant interbank market is in excess of IBOR for the relevant Term. 

  

	(b)	The Facility Agent must promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of a market disruption event. 

  

	(c)	After notification under paragraph (b) above, the rate of interest on each Lender’s share in the affected Loan for the relevant Term will be the aggregate of the
applicable: 

  

	 	(i)	Margin; 

  

	 	(ii)	rate notified to the Facility Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its share in
that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select; and 

  

	 	(iii)	Mandatory Cost. 

  

	11.3	Alternative basis of interest or funding 

  

	(a)	If a market disruption event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Company so requires, the Company and the Facility Agent must enter into negotiations in good faith for a period of
not more than thirty (30) days with a view to agreeing an alternative basis for determining the rate of interest and/or funding for the affected Loan and any future Loan. 

  

	(b)	Any alternative basis agreed will be, with the prior consent of all the Lenders, binding on all the Parties.

	(c)	Except as provided below, if a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor or the Facility Agent, the amount of the payment due from the Obligor will be increased to
an amount which (after making the Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

  

	(d)	An Obligor is not required to make an increased payment under paragraph (c) above to a Lender for a Tax Deduction in respect of tax imposed by the UK, the US or Switzerland, as

	 	(i)	the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if it was a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying
Lender in respect of that payment, unless the altered status results from any change after the later of the date of this Agreement or the date that such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or

some connection to the U.S. beyond being a Lender under this Agreement and receiving payments thereunder; or 

  

	 	(iv)	an existing Lender that originally qualified as Swiss Qualifying Lender does no longer qualify as a Swiss Qualifying Lender and thereby the Ten-Non Bank Regulations have been
breached, in which case also Clause 9.6 (Minimum Interest) shall not apply in respect of such Lender. 

  

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

  

	(f)	Within thirty (30) days of making either a Tax Deduction or a payment required in connection with a Tax Deduction, the Obligor must deliver to the Facility Agent for the

	(b)	Paragraph (a) above does not apply to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party under the laws of the jurisdiction in which: 

  

	 	(i)	that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident or carrying on business for tax purposes;
or 

  

	 	(ii)	that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, 

 if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable by that Finance Party. However, any payment deemed to be
received or receivable, including any amount treated as income but not actually received by the Finance Party, such as a Tax Deduction, will not be treated as net income received or receivable for this purpose. 
  

 Page 28 

	(c)	Paragraph (a) above does not apply to any amount compensated for under Subclause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) above, or which would have been compensated for under Subclause 12.2

prohibited to make a gross-up payment. 

  

	12.4	Tax Credit 

 If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant
Finance Party (in its absolute discretion) determines that: 
  

	(a)	a Tax Credit is attributable to that Tax Payment; and 

  

	(b)	the relevant Finance Party has used that Tax Credit, 

 the Finance Party
must pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party determines (in its absolute discretion) will leave it (after that payment) in the same after tax position as it would have been in if the Tax Payment had not been made by the Obligor.

  

	12.5	Stamp taxes 

 The Company must pay and indemnify each Finance Party
against any stamp duty, registration or other similar Tax payable in connection with the entry into, performance or enforcement of any Finance Document, except for any such Tax payable in connection with the entry into of a Transfer Certificate.

  

	12.6	Value added taxes 

  

	(a)	Any amount (including costs and expenses) payable under a Finance Document by an Obligor is exclusive of any Tax (including value added tax) which might be chargeable in connection
with that amount. If any such Tax is chargeable, the Obligor must pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying that amount) an amount equal to the amount of that Tax. 

  

	(b)	The obligation of the Obligor under paragraph (a) above will be reduced to the extent that the Finance Party is entitled to repayment or a credit in respect of the relevant
Tax.

circulars issued by the German Federal Ministry of Finance (Bundesfinanzministerium) dated 20 October 2005, docket no. IV B 7 – S 2742a – 43/05, and dated 16 March 2006, docket no. IV B 7 – S2742a – 6/06, the
Facility Agent acting on behalf of the Lenders and on the basis of information provided by the Lenders agrees to provide any Borrower subject to German taxation (German Borrower) imposed by way of assessment (Veranlagung) with a
letter of confirmation (Tax Certificate) substantially in the form of Schedule 10 (Form of German Tax Certificate). 

  

 Page 29 

	(b)	A Tax Certificate shall be provided to the German Borrowers as soon as reasonably practical but not earlier than thirty (30) days after the first Utilisation Date by a German
Borrower. Thereafter, each German Borrower shall request a new Tax Certificate to be issued within ten (10) days whenever any of the details provided under Subclause (c) below change and until full repayment of the Loans to that German
Borrower. 

  

	(c)	For the purpose of enabling the Facility Agent acting on behalf of the Lenders to provide a Tax Certificate, each German Borrower shall, promptly upon request by the Facility Agent
and in any event within five (5) days of such request, deliver to the Facility Agent the details necessary to provide the Tax Certificates, including a draft of the Tax Certificate including its annexes (if any). 

  

	(d)	When providing the information under Subclause (c) above, each German Borrower confirms that, to its best knowledge and after due enquiry, it is not aware of any circumstances
as a result of which the Tax Certificate to be given in relation to that information is not correct. Each German Borrower shall inform the Facility Agent without undue delay should it become aware after due inquiry that any Tax Certificate is
inaccurate, incomplete or misleading. 

  

	(e)    (i)	Each German Borrower acknowledges that the Facility Agent acting on behalf of the Lenders gives the Tax Certificate exclusively at the request of that German Borrower and solely for
providing proof to the German tax authorities of the absence of any back-to-back-financing with respect to this Agreement. 

  

	 	(ii)	No Finance Party is responsible for the German Borrowers’ tax position or for achieving any certain tax treatment of the German Borrowers. 

  

	 	(iii)	Each German Borrower confirms that a Tax Certificate is not given for the German Borrower or any of its Affiliates to rely on, but only for delivery to the competent tax authorities
and that, therefore, no German Borrower or any of its Affiliates will raise any claims against a Finance Party based on, or in connection with, a Tax Certificate. 

  

	 	(iv)	Each German Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold each Finance Party harmless from any reasonable costs and expenses (including legal fees) resulting from or incurred in connection
with the issuance of any Tax Certificate and from potential or actual claim that might be made against a Finance Party with respect to a Tax Certificate. 

  

	(f)	No Finance Party is providing any legal and/or tax advice to any other Party with respect to this Agreement. It is the responsibility of each German Borrower to consult its own
legal and tax advisers. 

  

	(g)	Each German Borrower, also in its role as provider of further Security releases each Lender from its duty of confidentiality and/or obligation of bank secrecy (Bankgeheimnis)
with regard to the issuance of the Tax Certificates to the German Borrowers and their submission to the German tax authorities. 

  

	13.	INCREASED COSTS

 Page 30 

	(b)	compliance with any law or regulation made after the date of this Agreement. 

  

	13.2	Exceptions

application or compliance is by a government, regulator, Finance Party or any of its Affiliates). 

  

	13.3	Claims 

 A Finance Party intending to make a claim for an Increased
Cost must, within 180 days of becoming aware of the circumstances giving rise to such a claim, notify the Company in writing of such circumstances setting out in detail the basis of calculation of such a claim. 
  

	14.	MITIGATION 

  

	14.1	Mitigation

	15.	PAYMENTS 

  

	15.1	Place 

 Unless a Finance Document specifies that payments under it
are to be made in another manner, all payments by a Party (other than the Facility Agent) under the Finance Documents must be made to the Facility Agent to its account at such office or bank: 
  

	(a)	in the principal financial centre of the country of the relevant currency; or 

  

	(b)	in the case of euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London, 

 as it may notify to that Party for this purpose by not less than five Business Days’ prior notice. 
  

	15.2	Funds 

 Payments under the Finance Documents to the Facility Agent
must be made for value on the due date at such times and in such funds as the Facility Agent may specify to the Party concerned as being customary at the time for the settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place for payment.

  

	15.3	Currency 

  

	(a)	Unless a Finance Document specifies that payments under it are to be made in a different manner, the currency of each amount payable under the Finance Documents is determined under
this Clause. 

  

	(b)	Interest is payable in the currency in which the relevant amount in respect of which it is payable is denominated. 

  

	(c)	A repayment or prepayment of any principal amount is payable in the currency in which that principal amount is denominated on its due date. 

  

	(d)	Amounts payable in respect of costs and expenses are payable in the currency in which they are incurred. 

  

	(e)	Each other amount payable under the Finance Documents is payable in U.S. Dollars. 

  

	15.4	Distribution 

  

	(a)	Each payment received by the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party must, except as provided below, be made available by the Facility Agent to that Party by

 Page 32 

	 	(ii)	in the case of euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London,

	(b)	The Facility Agent may (with the consent and at the expense of the relevant Obligor) apply any amount received by it for an Obligor in or towards payment (as soon as practicable
after receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards the purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied. 

  

	(c)	Where a sum is paid to the Facility Agent under this Agreement for another Party, the Facility Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that Party until it has established that it
has actually received it. However, the Facility Agent may assume that the sum has been paid to it, and, in reliance on that assumption, make available to that Party a corresponding amount. If it transpires that the sum had not been made available,
that Party must immediately on demand by the Facility Agent refund any corresponding amount made available to it together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent at a rate calculated by the
Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds. 

  

	15.5	No set off or counterclaim 

 All payments made by an Obligor under
the Finance Documents must be made without set off or counterclaim. 
  

	15.6	Business Days 

  

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

that payment towards the obligations of the Obligors under the Finance Documents in the following order: 

  

	 	(i)	first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest or fee due but unpaid under this Agreement; 

  

	 	(iii)	thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of any principal amount due but unpaid under this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(iv)	fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Finance Documents.

 Page 33

	16.	GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY 

  

	16.1	Guarantee and indemnity 

 Each Guarantor jointly and severally (if
there is more than one Guarantor) and irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  

	(a)	guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each Obligor of all its payment obligations under the Finance Documents; 

  

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

  

	(c)	indemnifies each Finance Party immediately on demand against any loss or liability suffered by that Finance Party if any payment obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes
unenforceable, invalid or illegal; the amount of the loss or liability under this indemnity will be equal to the amount the Finance Party would otherwise have been entitled to recover; and 

  

	(d)	agrees that: 

  

	 	(i)	this is a guarantee of payment and not a guarantee of collection; 

  

	 	(ii)	its obligations under this guarantee are independent of the validity or enforceability of any or all of the obligations of any or all of the Obligors; and 

 

	 	(iii)	a separate action may be brought and prosecuted against that Guarantor whether or not any action is brought against any or all of the Obligors. 

  

	16.2	Continuing guarantee 

 This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and
will extend to the ultimate balance of all sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part. This guarantee will enure to the benefit of any New Lender (as defined in
Clause 28 (Changes to the Parties)) to which has been assigned or transferred (including by way of novation) any or all of the rights and/or obligation of a Lender under this Agreement. 
  

	16.3	Reinstatement 

  

	(a)	If any discharge (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) or arrangement is made in whole or in part on the faith of
any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or reduced or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise without limitation, the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause will continue as if the discharge or arrangement
had not occurred. 

  

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

  

 Page 34 

	16.4	Waiver of defences 

 The obligations of each Guarantor under this
Clause will not be affected by any act, omission or thing which, but for this provision, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause (whether or not known to it or any Finance Party). This includes: 
  

	(a)	any time or waiver granted to, or composition with, any person; 

  

	(b)	any release of any person under the terms of any composition or arrangement; 

  

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

  

	(d)	any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

  

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

  

	(f)	any amendment, novation, supplement, extension or restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) of a Finance Document or any other document or security;

  

	(g)	any unenforceability, illegality, invalidity or non-provability of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security; or

  

	(h)	any insolvency or similar proceeding relating to any Obligor. 

  

	16.5	Immediate recourse 

 Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of
first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other right or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause. 
  

	16.6	Appropriations 

 Until all amounts which may be or become payable by
the Obligors under the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may without affecting the liability of any Guarantor under this Clause: 
  

	(a)	refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts;
or 

  

	(b)	apply and enforce them in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise); and 

  

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

  

	16.7	Non-competition 

 Unless: 
  

	(a)	all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full; or 

  

	(b)	the Facility Agent otherwise directs, 

  

 Page 35 

 no Guarantor will, after a claim has been made or by virtue of any payment or performance by it under this Clause:

  

	 	(i)	be subrogated to any rights, security or moneys held, received or receivable by any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf); 

  

	 	(ii)	be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity in respect of any payment made or moneys received on account of that Guarantor’s liability under this Clause;

  

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

  

	 	(iv)	receive, claim or have the benefit of any payment, distribution or security from or on account of any Obligor, or exercise any right of set-off as against any Obligor.

 Each Guarantor must hold in trust for and immediately pay or transfer to the Facility Agent for the Finance Parties any payment or
distribution or benefit of security received by it contrary to this Clause or in accordance with any directions given by the Facility Agent under this Clause. 
  

	16.8	Additional security 

 This guarantee is in addition to and is not in
any way prejudiced by any other security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party. 
  

	16.9	U.S. Guarantors 

  

	(a)	In this Subclause: 

 fraudulent transfer law means
any applicable United States bankruptcy and State fraudulent transfer and conveyance statute and any related case law; 
 U.S. Guarantor
means any Guarantor incorporated or organised under the laws of the United States of America or any state of the United States of America (including the District of Columbia) or that resides or has a place of business or property in the United
States of America; and 
 terms used in this Subclause are to be construed in accordance with the fraudulent transfer laws. 
  

	(b)	Each U.S. Guarantor acknowledges that: 

  

	 	(i)	it will receive valuable direct or indirect benefits as a result of the transactions financed by the Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	those benefits will constitute reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration for the purpose of any fraudulent transfer law; and 

  

	 	(iii)	each Finance Party has acted in good faith in connection with the guarantee given by that U.S. Guarantor and the transaction contemplated by the Finance Documents.

  

	(c)	Each Finance Party agrees that each U.S. Guarantor’s liability under this Clause is limited so that no obligation of, or transfer by, any U.S. Guarantor under this Clause is
subject to avoidance and turnover under any fraudulent transfer law. 

  

	(d)	Each U.S. Guarantor must ensure that at all times: 

  

 Page 36 

	 	(i)	the aggregate amount of each U.S. Guarantor’s debts (including its obligations under the Finance Documents) is less than the aggregate value (being the lesser of fair valuation
and present fair saleable value) of its assets; 

  

	 	(ii)	its capital must not be unreasonably small to carry on its business as it is being conducted; 

  

	 	(iii)	it may not incur and does not intend to incur debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature; and 

  

	 	(iv)	it has not made a transfer or incurred any obligation under any Finance Document with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its present or future creditors.

  

	(e)	Each U.S. Guarantor represents and warrants that it is in compliance with paragraph (d) above at all times in which the Facilities are available or any Commitment is in force.

  

	16.10	    Swiss Guarantors 

  

	(a)	If and to the extent that a payment in fulfilling the guarantee obligations under Clause 16.1 (Guarantee and indemnity) of a Guarantor incorporated under the laws of
Switzerland (a Swiss Guarantor) would, at the time payment is due, under Swiss law and practice (inter alia, prohibiting capital repayments or restricting profit distributions) not be permitted, in particular if and to the extent the
Swiss Guarantor guarantees obligations other than obligations of one of its subsidiaries (i.e. obligations of its direct or indirect parent companies (up-stream guarantee) or sister companies (cross-stream guarantee)) (Restricted
Obligations), then such obligations and payment amount shall from time to time be limited to the amount permitted to be paid; provided that such limited amount shall at no time be less than such Swiss Guarantor’s profits and reserves
available for the distribution as dividends (being the balance sheet profits and any reserves available for this purpose, in each case in accordance with art. 675(2) and art. 671(1) and (2), no. 3, of the Swiss Federal Code of Obligations) at the
time or times payment under or pursuant to Clause 16.1 (Guarantee and indemnity) is requested from the Swiss Guarantor, and further provided that such limitation (as may apply from time to time or not) shall not (generally or definitively)
free the Swiss Guarantor from payment obligations hereunder in excess thereof, but merely postpone the payment date therefor until such times as payment is again permitted notwithstanding such limitation. Any and all indemnities and guarantees
contained in the Finance Documents including, in particular, Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) of this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with the provisos herein contained. 

  

	(b)	In respect of Restricted Obligations, each Swiss Guarantor shall: 

  

	 	(i)	if and to the extent required by applicable law in force at the relevant time: 

  

	 	(A)	subject to any applicable double taxation treaty, deduct Swiss anticipatory tax (Verrechnungssteuer; Swiss Withholding Tax) at the rate of 35% (or such
other rate as in force from time to time) from any payment made by it in respect of Restricted Obligations; 

  

	 	(B)	pay any such deduction to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and 

  

	 	(C)	notify (or procure that the Company notifies) the Facility Agent that such a deduction has been made and provide the Facility Agent with evidence that such a deduction has been paid
to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration, all in accordance with Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up); and 

  

 Page 37 

	 	(ii)	to the extent such a deduction is made, not be obliged to either gross-up in accordance with Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or indemnify the Finance Parties in accordance with
Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) in relation to any such payment made by it in respect of Restricted Obligations unless grossing-up is permitted under the laws of Switzerland then in force. 

  

	(c)	If and to the extent requested by the Facility Agent and if and to the extent this is from time to time required under Swiss law (restricting profit distributions), in order to
allow the Facility Agent (or the Finance Parties) to obtain a maximum benefit under this guarantee, the Swiss Guarantor undertakes to promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly procure the fulfilment of all prerequisites allowing it to
promptly make the (requested) payment(s) hereunder from time to time, including the following: 

  

	 	(i)	preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of the Swiss Guarantor; 

  

	 	(ii)	confirmation of the auditors of the Swiss Guarantor that the relevant amount represents (the maximum of) freely distributable profits; 

  

	 	(iii)	approval by a shareholders’ meeting of the Swiss Guarantor of the (resulting) profit distribution; and 

  

	 	(iv)	all such other measures necessary or useful to allow the Swiss Guarantor to make the payments agreed hereunder with a minimum of limitations. 

  

	16.11    	German Guarantors 

  

	(a)	Each of the Finance Parties agrees not to enforce the guarantee granted under this Agreement against any Guarantor irrespective of whether the relevant Guarantor is at the time of
enforcement incorporated as 

  

	 	(i)	a limited liability company (Gesellschaft mit beschränkter Haftung) (a German GmbH Guarantor), or 

  

	 	(ii)	a limited partnership (Kommanditgesellschaft) of which the general partner (Komplementär) is a limited liability company (a German GmbH & Co. KG
Guarantor) 

 (a German GmbH Guarantor or a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor each hereinafter referred to as a
German Guarantor), 
 if and to the extent the guarantee secures obligations of a shareholder of the German Guarantor and/or any
of its Affiliates (as defined below), in each case other than any direct or indirect subsidiary of the German Guarantor, and if and to the extent the enforcement of such guarantee would cause: 
  

	 	(A)	 the German GmbH Guarantor’s, or in the case of the German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general partner’s, assets (the calculation of which shall
take into account the captions reflected in § 266 (2) A, B and C of the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)) less the German GmbH Guarantor’s, or in case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general
partner’s, liabilities, provisions and liability reserves (the calculation of which shall take into account the captions reflected in § 266 (3) B, C and D of the German Commercial Code) (the Net Assets) to be less than
the registered share capital (Stammkapital) of the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case 

  

 Page 38 

	 	 
of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor of the registered share capital of its general partner (Begründung einer Unterbilanz); or

  

	 	(B)	an increase of a shortfall, if the Net Assets of the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor, of its general partner, already fall short
of the amount of the registered share capital (Vertiefung einer Unterbilanz). 

 In this Clause 16.11(a), the term
Affiliate refers to an affiliated company (verbundenes Unternehmen) of a shareholder of the Guarantor within the meaning of §§ 15 et. seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz). 
  

	(b)	For the purposes of the calculation of the Net Assets in paragraph (a) above the following items shall be adjusted as follows: 

  

	 	(i)	the amount of an increase in the registered share capital of the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor of its general partner,

  

	 	(A)	that has been effected out of retained earnings (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln) without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent after the date of this
Agreement; or 

  

	 	(B)	any amount of an increase in the registered share capital that has not been fully paid, 

 shall be deducted from the registered share capital; 
  

	 	(ii)	any loans and other contractual liabilities incurred in violation of a any Finance Document shall be disregarded; and 

  

	 	(iii)	any loans provided to such German Guarantor by any members of the Group as far as such loans are subordinated or qualify as subordinated under Section 32a of the German Limited
Liability Companies Act (GmbH-Gesetz) shall also be disregarded. 

  

	(c)	In addition, any German Guarantor shall realise, to the extent legally permitted, in a situation where after enforcement of the guarantee the German GmbH Guarantor, or in the case
of a German GmbH & Co. KG Guarantor its general partner, would not have Net Assets in excess of its respective registered share capital, any and all of its assets that are shown in the balance sheet with a book value (Buchwert) that
is significantly lower than the market value of the asset if such asset is not necessary for the relevant German Guarantor’s business (betriebsnotwendig). 

  

	(d)	The limitations set out in this Clause 16.11, shall not apply to a guarantee granted by the relevant German Guarantor 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 and are not subordinated pursuant to Section 32a GmbH-Gesetz. 

  

	(e)	Nothing in this Agreement shall be interpreted as a restriction or limitation of the enforcement of this guarantee if and to the extent the guarantee secures own obligations of the
relevant German Guarantor or obligations of any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries.

Facility Agent which, in its opinion, is acquired by it otherwise than in its capacity as the Facility Agent may be treated as confidential by the Facility Agent and will not be treated as information possessed by the Facility Agent in its capacity
as such.

	(d)	A transfer of obligations will be effective only if either: 

  

	 	(i)	the obligations are novated in accordance with the following provisions of this Clause; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the New Lender confirms to the Facility Agent and the Company in form and substance satisfactory to the Facility Agent that it is bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Lender.
On the transfer becoming effective in this manner the Existing Lender will be released from its obligations under this Agreement to the extent that they are transferred to the New Lender. 

  

	(e)	Unless the Facility Agent otherwise agrees, the New Lender must pay to the Facility Agent for its own account, on or before the date any assignment or transfer occurs, a fee of
U.S.$4,000. 

  

	(f)	Any reference in this Agreement to a Lender includes a New Lender but excludes a Lender if no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement. 

  

	(g)	Swiss Qualifying Lenders 

  

	 	(i)	Subject to sub-paragraph (iii) below, no Lender may: 

  

	 	(A)	assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to, any person who is not, at the time of such an assignment or transfer, a Swiss Qualifying Lender; or

  

	 	(B)	enter into a sub-participation agreement in relation to the Facilities, or any similar arrangement granting rights in the Facilities, (a Sub-Participation Agreement)
with any person who is not, at the time of such a sub-participation, a Swiss Qualifying Lender. 

  

	 	(ii)	Any Lender which enters into a Sub-Participation Agreement in relation to the Facilities shall ensure that: 

  

	 	(A)	the terms of such Sub-Participation Agreement oblige the sub-participant or other counterparty of a Sub-Participation Agreement (a Sub-Participant) to neither enter
into further Sub-Participation Agreements (in relation to the rights between it and such Lender) nor assign or grant any interest over the Sub-Participation Agreement, except in each case to a person who is a Swiss Qualifying Lender;

  

	 	(B)	the Sub-Participant enters into an undertaking in favour of each Lender and each Swiss Obligor to abide by the terms included in the Sub-Participation Agreement to reflect paragraph
(A) above; and 

  

	 	(C)	 the terms of such Sub-Participation Agreement oblige the Sub-Participant, in respect of any further sub-participation, assignment or grant, to include a term
identical to the provisions of this Clause mutatis mutandis, including a 

  

 Page 66 

 
requirement that any further Sub-Participant, assignee or grantee enters into such undertaking. 
  

	 	(iii)	A bank or financial institution, not being a Swiss Qualifying Lender, may only become party hereto as a Lender, and a Lender may only assign (whether by way of a Sub-Participation
or otherwise) any of its rights and benefits hereunder to a person which is not a Swiss Qualifying Lender pursuant to Clause 28.3(g)(i)(A) if all of the following conditions are met: (i) the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the
Majority Lenders) has consented thereto, (ii) the Swiss Borrower, if any, and the Company has confirmed in writing (after having obtained all necessary information on the Lenders to make an informed decision) that, after giving effect to the
proposed accession of such bank or financial institution as a Lender, there will be not more than 10 non Swiss Qualifying Lenders under this Agreement (or such other figure or test as applicable under the Ten Non-Bank Regulations in force at the
relevant point of time), (iii) the Swiss Borrower (if any) has confirmed in writing that, after giving effect to the proposed accession of such bank or financial institution as a Lender, it is and will remain in compliance with the Twenty
Non-Bank Rule and (iv) such bank or financial institution has, as a condition precedent to its becoming a party hereto as a Lender, delivered to the Facility Agent (for and on behalf of itself and the other Finance Parties), upon the Facility
Agent’s request, tax rulings from the Swiss Federal Tax Administration satisfactory to the Facility Agent. 

  

	 	(iv)	For the avoidance of doubt, all parties hereto acknowledge that the number of persons other than Swiss Qualifying Lenders party hereto as Lenders or indirect holders of interest
from time to time may not at any time (also in case there is no Swiss Borrower) or under any circumstances exceed ten unless, to the satisfaction of the Facility Agent, such number can be exceeded without a breach of the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and
the Twenty Non-Bank Rule occurring as a result thereof. 

  

	28.4	Procedure for transfer by way of novations 

  

	(a)	A novation is effected if: 

  

	 	(i)	the Existing Lender and the New Lender deliver to the Facility Agent a duly completed Transfer Certificate and the Facility Agent executes it; or 

  

	 	(ii)	a Syndication Agreement is executed by all the Administrative Parties, the Lenders and the Company. 

 The Facility Agent must execute as soon as reasonably practicable a Transfer Certificate delivered to it and which appears on its face to be in order. 
  

	(b)	Each Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to execute any duly completed Transfer Certificate on its behalf.

  

	(c)	On the Transfer Date: 

  

	 	(i)	the New Lender will assume the rights and obligations of the Existing Lender expressed to be the subject of the novation in the Transfer Certificate in substitution for the Existing
Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Existing Lender will be released from those obligations and cease to have those rights. 

  

 Page 67 

	28.5	Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lender 

  

	(a)	Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender is not responsible to a New Lender for the legality, validity, adequacy, accuracy, completeness or performance of:

  

	 	(i)	any Finance Document or any other document; or 

  

	 	(ii)	any statement or information (whether written or oral) made in or supplied in connection with any Finance Document, 

 and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded. 
  

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

  

	 	(i)	has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its
participation in this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(ii)	has not relied exclusively on any information supplied to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document. 

  

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

  

	 	(i)	accept a re transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause; or 

  

	 	(ii)	support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non performance by any Obligor of its obligations under any Finance Document or otherwise. 

 

	28.6	Costs resulting from change of Lender or Facility Office 

 If:

  

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

  

	(b)	as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to pay a Tax Payment or an Increased Cost,

 then, unless the assignment, transfer or change is made by a Lender to mitigate any circumstances giving rise to the Tax Payment, Increased
Cost or right to be prepaid and/or cancelled by reason of illegality, the Obligor need only pay that Tax Payment or Increased Cost to the same extent that it would have been obliged to if no assignment, transfer or change had occurred. 

 

	28.7	Additional Obligors 

  

	(a)    (i)	Subject to sub-paragraph (ii) below and compliance with Clause 18.5 (“Know Your Customer” checks), the Company may elect for any of its wholly owned
Subsidiaries to become an Additional Obligor. 

  

	 	(ii)	If the Additional Obligor is an Additional Borrower and is incorporated in a jurisdiction other than the U.K., Germany, Switzerland or the United States of America, the prior
consent of all the Lenders is required. 

  

	 	(iii)	 If the Additional Obligor is an Additional Borrower incorporated in Switzerland, the prior consent of the Facility Agent is required which consent may not be
withheld by 

  

 Page 68 

	 	 
the Facility Agent if the Facility Agent, acting reasonably, is satisfied that the Ten Non-Bank Regulations and the Twenty Non-Bank Rule are complied with.

  

	(b)	If one of the Subsidiaries of the Company is to become an Additional Obligor, then the Company must (following consultation with the Facility Agent) deliver to the Facility Agent
the relevant documents and evidence listed in Part B of Schedule 2 (Conditions precedent documents). 

  

	(c)	The relevant Subsidiary will become an Additional Obligor when the Facility Agent notifies the other Finance Parties and the Company that it has received (or waived receipt of) all
of the documents and evidence referred to in paragraph (b) above in form and substance satisfactory to it. The Facility Agent must give this notification as soon as reasonably practicable. 

  

	(d)	Delivery of an Accession Agreement, executed by the relevant Subsidiary and the Company, to the Facility Agent constitutes confirmation by that Subsidiary and the Company that the
Repeating Representations are then correct. 

  

	(e)	Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity) will be amended to the extent the Facility Agent (acting reasonably and after consultation with the Company) determines is necessary to
reflect any requirement under the law of the jurisdiction of any Additional Guarantor to limit the guarantee to be provided by that Additional Guarantor. 

  

	(f)	Prior to a Subsidiary organised under the laws of the United States of America or any state of the United States of America (including the District of Colombia) becoming an
Additional Obligor, such Subsidiary shall provide any additional representations relating to US laws binding on such Additional Obligor as may be requested by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably). 

  

	28.8	Resignation of an Obligor (other than the Company) 

  

	(a)	In this Subclause, Resignation Request means a letter in the form of Schedule 7 (Form of Resignation Request), with such amendments as the Facility Agent
may approve or reasonably require. 

  

	(b)	The Company may request that an Obligor (other than the Company) ceases to be an Obligor by giving to the Facility Agent a duly completed Resignation Request.

  

	(c)	The Facility Agent must accept a Resignation Request and notify the Company and the Lenders of its acceptance if: 

  

	 	(i)	no Default is outstanding or would result from the acceptance of the Resignation Request and the Company confirms this; and 

  

	 	(ii)	no amount owed by that Obligor under this Agreement is still outstanding. 

  

	(d)	The Obligor will cease to be a Borrower and/or a Guarantor, as appropriate, when the Facility Agent gives the notification referred to in paragraph (c) above.

  

	28.9	Affiliates of Lenders 

  

	(a)	Each Lender may fulfil its obligations in respect of any Loan through an Affiliate if: 

  

	 	(i)	the relevant Affiliate is specified in this Agreement as a Lender or becomes a Lender by means of a Transfer Certificate in accordance with this Agreement; and

  

 Page 69 

	 	(ii)	the Loans in which that Affiliate will participate are specified in this Agreement, a Transfer Certificate or in a notice given by that Lender to the Facility Agent and the Company.

 In this event, the Lender and the Affiliate will participate in Loans in the manner provided for in sub-paragraph
(ii) above. 
  

	(b)	If paragraph (a) above applies, the Lender and its Affiliate will be treated as having a single Commitment and a single vote, but, for all other purposes, will be treated as
separate Lenders. 

  

	28.10	    Changes to the Reference Banks 

 If a
Reference Bank (or, if a Reference Bank is not a Lender, the Lender of which it is an Affiliate) ceases to be a Lender, the Facility Agent must (with the agreement of the Company) appoint another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender to replace that
Reference Bank. 
  

	28.11	    Replacement of a Lender 

  

	(a)	For the purposes of this Clause: 

 Increased Cost
Lender means a Lender to whom any Obligor becomes obliged to pay additional amounts described in Clauses 12.2 (Tax gross-up), 12.3 (Tax Indemnity) or 13.1 (Increased Costs) or to make payment under Clause 8.1
(Mandatory prepayment illegality); 
 Non Consenting Lender means a Lender who does not agree to a consent or amendment
or who fails to respond to a request for a consent or amendment where: 
  

	 	(i)	the Company or the Facility Agent has requested the Lenders to consent to a departure from or waiver of any provision of the Finance Documents or to agree to any amendment to the
Finance Documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	the relevant consent or amendment requires the agreement of all Lenders; 

  

	 	(iii)	a period of not less than 14 days has elapsed from the date the consent or amendment was requested; 

  

	 	(iv)	the Majority Lenders have agreed to that consent or amendment; and 

  

	 	(v)	the Company has notified the Lender it will treat it as a Non Consenting Lender; 

 Non-Funding Lender means: 
  

	 	(i)	any Lender which has failed to make or participate in a Loan; or 

  

	 	(ii)	any Lender which has given notice to the relevant Borrower or the Facility Agent that it does not intend to make or participate in any Loans in accordance with the requirements of
this Agreement or has repudiated its obligations to do so. 

  

	(b)	If at any time: 

  

	 	(i)	any Lender becomes an Increased Cost Lender; 

  

	 	(ii)	any Lender becomes insolvent and its assets become subject to a receiver, liquidator, trustee, custodian or other person having similar powers or any winding-up, dissolution or
administration; 

  

 Page 70 

	 	(iii)	any Lender becomes a Non Consenting Lender; or 

  

	 	(iv)	any Lender becomes a Non-Funding Lender, 

 then the Company
may, on ten Business Days’ prior notice to the Facility Agent and that Lender, replace that Lender by causing it to (and that Lender shall) transfer in accordance with Clause 28 (Changes to the Parties) all of its rights and obligations
under this Agreement to a Lender or other person selected by the Company and acceptable to the Facility Agent (acting reasonably) for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of that Lender’s participation in the outstanding
Loans and all accrued interest and fees and other amounts payable to that Lender under this Agreement. 
  

	(c)	The Company shall have no right to replace the Facility Agent and neither the Facility Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Company to find a replacement Lender or
other such entity. 

  

	(d)	The Company may only replace a Non Consenting Lender or an Increased Cost Lender if that replacement takes place no later than 180 days after: 

  

	 	(i)	the date the Non Consenting Lender becomes a Non Consenting Lender; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the date the Increased Cost Lender demands payment of the relevant additional amounts. 

  

	(e)	No Lender replaced under this Clause may be required to pay or surrender to that replacement Lender or other entity any of the fees received by it. 

  

	(f)	In the case of a replacement of an Increased Cost Lender, the Company must pay the relevant additional amounts to that Increased Cost Lender prior to it being replaced and the
payment of those additional amounts shall be a condition to replacement. 

  

	(g)	The Company’s right to replace a Non-Funding Lender under this Clause is, and shall be, in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies available to the
Company against that Non-Funding Lender under this Agreement, at law, in equity, or by statute. 

  

	29.	DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION 

  

	(a)	Each Finance Party must keep confidential any information supplied to it by or on behalf of any Obligor in connection with the Finance Documents. However, a Finance Party is
entitled to disclose information: 

  

	 	(i)	which is publicly available, other than as a result of a breach by that Finance Party of this Clause; 

  

	 	(ii)	in connection with any legal or arbitration proceedings; 

  

	 	(iii)	if required to do so under any law or regulation; 

  

	 	(iv)	to a governmental, banking, taxation or other regulatory authority; 

  

	 	(v)	to its professional advisers provided that its professional advisers are made aware that that information must be kept confidential in accordance with the terms of this Clause;

  

	 	(vi)	to the extent allowed under paragraph (b) below; or 

  

 Page 71 

	 	(vii)	with the agreement of the Company. 

  

	(b)	A Finance Party may disclose to an Affiliate or any person with whom it may enter, or has entered into, any kind of transfer, participation or other agreement in relation to this
Agreement (a participant): 

  

	 	(i)	a copy of any Finance Document; and 

  

	 	(ii)	any information which that Finance Party has acquired under any Finance Document. 

 However, before a participant may receive any confidential information, it must agree with the relevant Finance Party to keep that information confidential on the terms of paragraph (a) above. 
  

	(c)	This Clause supersedes any previous confidentiality undertaking given by a Finance Party in connection with this Agreement prior to it becoming a Party. 

  

	30.	SET OFF 

 Following an Event of Default, a Finance Party may set off
any matured obligation owed to it by an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place
of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set off.

  

	31.	PRO RATA SHARING 

  

	31.1	Redistribution 

 If any amount owing by an Obligor under this
Agreement to a Lender (the recovering Lender) is discharged by payment, set off or any other manner other than through the Facility Agent under this Agreement (a recovery), then: 
  

	(a)	the recovering Lender must, within three Business Days, supply details of the recovery to the Facility Agent; 

  

	(b)	the Facility Agent must calculate whether the recovery is in excess of the amount which the recovering Lender would have received if the recovery had been received by the Facility
Agent under this Agreement; and 

  

	(c)	the recovering Lender must pay to the Facility Agent an amount equal to the excess (the redistribution). 

  

	31.2	Effect of redistribution 

  

	(a)	The Facility Agent must treat a redistribution as if it were a payment by the relevant Obligor under this Agreement and distribute it among the Lenders accordingly.

  

	(b)	When the Facility Agent makes a distribution under paragraph (a) above, the recovering Lender will be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties which have shared in that
redistribution. 

  

	(c)	If and to the extent that the recovering Lender is not able to rely on any rights of subrogation under paragraph (b) above, the relevant Obligor will owe the recovering Lender
a debt which is equal to the redistribution, immediately payable and of the type originally discharged. 

  

 Page 72 

	(d)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	a recovering Lender must subsequently return a recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a recovery, to an Obligor; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the recovering Lender has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery, 

 each Finance Party must reimburse the recovering Lender all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party, together with interest for the period while it held the re distribution. In this
event, the subrogation in paragraph (b) above will operate in reverse to the extent of the reimbursement. 
  

	31.3	Exceptions 

 Notwithstanding any other term of this Clause, a
recovering Lender need not pay a redistribution to the extent that: 
  

	(a)	it would not, after the payment, have a valid claim against the relevant Obligor in the amount of the redistribution; or 

  

	(b)	it would be sharing with another Finance Party any amount which the recovering Lender has received or recovered as a result of legal or arbitration proceedings, where:

  

	 	(i)	the recovering Lender notified the Facility Agent of those proceedings; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those proceedings but did not do so or did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings as soon as reasonably
practicable after receiving notice of them. 

  

	32.	SEVERABILITY 

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

	(a)	the validity or enforceability in that jurisdiction of any other term of the Finance Documents; or 

  

	(b)	the validity or enforceability in other jurisdictions of that or any other term of the Finance Documents. 

  

	33.	COUNTERPARTS 

 Each Finance Document may be executed in any number
of counterparts. This has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document. 
  

	34.	NOTICES 

  

	34.1	In writing 

  

	(a)	Any formal communication in connection with a Finance Document must be in writing and, unless otherwise stated, may be given in person, by post or fax approved by the Facility

	 	(ii)	to supply all information concerning itself to any Finance Party; and

 Page 75

or otherwise in relation to proceedings in connection with any Finance Documents. 

  

	(c)	This Clause is for the benefit of the Finance Parties only. To the extent allowed by law, a Finance Party may take: 

  

	 	(i)	proceedings in any other court; and 

  

	 	(ii)	concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions. 

  

	37.2	Service of process

English courts. 

  

	(b)	If any person appointed as process agent is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Company (on behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately appoint
another agent on terms acceptable to the Facility Agent. Failing this, the Facility Agent may appoint another agent for this purpose. 

  

	(c)	Each Obligor agrees that failure by a process agent to notify it of any process will not invalidate the relevant proceedings. 

  

	(d)	This Clause does not affect any other method of service allowed by law.

 SCHEDULE 4 
 MANDATORY COST FORMULAE 
 1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders 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 as soon as possible thereafter) the Facility Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a
rate (the Additional Cost Rate) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Facility Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in
proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 
 3. The Additional
Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Facility Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facility Agent to be
its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans 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 Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the
Facility Agent as follows: 
  

	(a)	in relation to a sterling Loan: 

 

 
  

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

 

 
 Where: 
  

	A	is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender 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 and, if the Loan is an amount subject to interest on overdue amounts under Clause 11.3 (Default
Interest), the additional rate of interest specified in Clause 11.3 payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan. 

  

	C	is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender 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. 

  

 Page 85 

	E	is designed to compensate Lenders 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 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. 

  

	(e)	Reference Banks means the principal London offices of Barclays Bank plc, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, Lloyds TSB Bank plc and Société
Générale or such other banks as may be appointed by the Facility Agent in consultation with the Parent. 

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

	(a)	the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and 

  

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

 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph. 
 9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each 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 Lender notifies the Facility Agent to the contrary, each Lender’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 its Facility Office. 
  

 Page 86 

 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 Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or 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 to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for
each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each 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, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties to this agreement.

 13. The Facility Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Company and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties to this agreement
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 to this agreement.

 This Certification is based solely on information that is known to the employees of the Lenders who have worked on the Loan. 
 In providing this Certification, neither the Lenders – in the first place for legal reasons – nor the Facility Agent are offering any consultancy services on tax matters. In particular, neither the Lenders nor the Facility Agent
will be responsible or liable for the respective Borrower’s success in obtaining any tax benefits which are the objective of this Certification. 
  

	
	Yours sincerely,

 acting as facility agent for the Lenders 
 Explanations: 
  

	1	The declaration should only be issued at the request of the Borrower on the occasion of one of the legal transactions mentioned (loan etc.) by the Bank/Savings Bank; furthermore, it
must be issued spontaneously by the issuer of the original Certification whenever any change is made in the contract or in the securities which have been provided. . 

  

	2	The list of securities granted by third parties must be supplied and the grantors of the securities must be named regardless of whether not merely short-term deposits or not merely
short-term other capital claims within the meaning of marginal note 20 of the FMOF letter of 15 July 2004 on Section 8a Corporation Tax Law (Federal Tax Gazette I 2004 p. 593) are involved. Furthermore, this information must be provided
regardless of whether the security depends on the fulfilment of a condition (e.g. security is provided or the debt secured falls due) or on the expiration of a period. 

  

	3	All the securities and trust relationships granted for the loan must also be included (e.g. encumbrance of real property, mortgage, letter of responsibility, assignment as
security). 

  

	4	Enter here if (other) persons who are not borrowers have granted security, but have not released the respective Lender from existing bank secrecy as regards this Certification.
