to the ISM Code or the ISPS Code not being complied with;

 

and each Borrower shall keep the
Lender advised in writing on a regular basis and in such detail as the Lender shall require of that Borrower’s, the Approved Manager’s
or any other person’s response to any of those events or matters.

 

		14.12	Restrictions on chartering, appointment of managers etc. No Borrower shall:

 

		(a)	let its Ship on demise charter for any period;

 

		(b)	enter into any time or consecutive voyage charter in respect of its Ship for a term which exceeds,
or which by virtue of any optional extensions may exceed, 13 months;

 

		(c)	enter into any charter in relation to its Ship under which more than 2 months’ hire (or the equivalent)
is payable in advance;

 

    	34

    	 

    

 

		(d)	charter its Ship otherwise than on bona fide arm’s length terms at the time when that Ship is fixed;

 

		(e)	appoint a manager of its Ship other than the Approved Manager or agree to any alteration to the
terms of the Approved Manager’s appointment;

 

		(f)	de-activate or lay up its Ship; or

 

		(g)	put its Ship into the possession of any person for the purpose of work being done upon her in an
amount exceeding or likely to exceed $250,000 (or the equivalent in any other currency) unless that person has first given to the
Lender and in terms satisfactory to it a written undertaking not to exercise any lien on its Ship or the Earnings for the cost
of such work or for any other reason.

 

		14.13	Notice of Mortgage. Each Borrower shall keep the relevant Mortgage registered against its
Ship as a valid first priority mortgage, carry on board its Ship a certified copy of the Mortgage and place and maintain in a conspicuous
place in the navigation room and the Master’s cabin of that Ship a framed printed notice stating that that Ship is mortgaged by
that Borrower to the Lender.

 

		14.14	Sharing of Earnings. No Borrower shall:

 

		(a)	enter into any agreement or arrangement for the sharing of any Earnings;

 

		(b)	enter into any agreement or arrangement for the postponement of any date on which any Earnings

to any Earnings; or

 

		(c)	enter into any agreement or arrangement for the release of, or adverse alteration to, any guarantee
or Security Interest relating to any Earnings.

 

		15	SECURITY COVER 

 

		15.1	Minimum required security cover. Clause 15.2 applies if the Lender notifies the Borrowers
that:

 

		(a)	the aggregate of the market values (determined as provided in Clause 15.3) of the Ships; plus

 

		(b)	the net realisable value of any additionally security previously provided under this Clause 15

 

is below 125 per cent. of the Loan.

 

		15.2	Provision of additional security cover; prepayment. If the Lender serves a notice on the
Borrowers under Clause 15.1, the Borrowers shall, within 1 month after the date on which the Lender’s notice is served, either:

 

		(a)	provide, or ensure that a third party provides, additional security which, in the opinion of the
Lender, has a net realisable value at least equal to the shortfall and is documented in such terms as the Lender may approve or
require; or

 

		(b)	prepay in accordance with Clause 7 such part (at least) of the Loan as will eliminate the shortfall.

 

		15.3	Meaning of additional security. In Clause 15.1 “security”
means a Security Interest over an asset or assets (whether securing the Borrowers’ liabilities under the Finance Documents
or a guarantee in respect of those liabilities), or a guarantee, letter of credit or other security in respect of the Borrower’s
liabilities under the Finance Documents.

 

    	35

    	 

    

 

		15.4	Requirement for additional documents. The Borrowers shall not be deemed to have complied
with Clause 15.1 (i) above until the Lender has received in connection with the additional security certified copies of documents
of the kinds referred to in paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of Schedule 2, Part A below and such legal opinions in terms acceptable to the
Lender from such lawyers as they may select.

 

		15.5	Valuation of Ships. The market value of a Ship at any date is that shown by a valuation
prepared:

 

		(a)	as at a date not more than 14 days previously;

 

		(b)	by an independent sale and purchase shipbroker which the Lender has approved or appointed for the
purpose;

 

		(c)	with or without physical inspection of the Ship (as the Lender may require);

 

		(d)	on the basis of a sale for prompt delivery for cash on normal arm’s length commercial terms as
between a willing seller and a willing buyer;

 

		(e)	with or without charter of other contract of employment at the option of the Lender;

 

		(f)	after deducting the estimated amount of the usual and reasonable expenses which would be incurred
in connection with the sale.

 

In case such valuation is not accepted
by the Borrowers, then the Borrowers shall have the right to appoint another shipbroker to value the Ship on the same basis. In
case of a difference in value of greater than 10 per cent. in the amount of each valuation, the Lender and the Borrowers agree
to accept the valuation of a third shipbroker nominated by each party (such valuation to be formally requested by and addressed
to the Lender), otherwise the valuation by the shipbroker appointed by the Lender shall prevail. Each Borrower agrees to supply
to the Lender and to any such shipbroker such information concerning its Ship and its condition as such shipbroker may require
for the purpose of making such valuation.

 

		15.6	Value of additional security. The net realisable value of any additional security which
is provided under Clause 15.1 and which consists of a Security Interest over a vessel shall be that shown by a valuation complying
with the requirements of Clause 15.4.

 

		15.7	Valuations binding. Any valuation under Clause 15.2, 15.3 or 15.4 shall be binding and conclusive
as regards the Borrowers, as shall be any valuation which the Lender makes of a security which does not consist of or include a
Security Interest.

 

		15.8	Provision of information. The Borrowers shall promptly provide the Lender and any broker
or expert acting under Clause 15,4 or 15.5 with any information which the Lender or the broker or expert may request for the purposes
of the valuation; and, if the Borrowers fail to provide the information by the date specified in the request, the valuation may
be made on any basis and assumptions which the broker or the Lender (or the expert appointed by them) consider prudent.

 

		15.9	Payment of valuation expenses. Without prejudice to the generality of the Borrowers’ obligations
under Clauses 20.2, 20.3 and 21.3, the Borrowers shall, on demand, pay the Lender the amount of the fees and expenses of any broker
or expert instructed by the Lender under this Clause and all legal and other expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with
any matter arising out of this Clause.

 

    	36

    	 

    

 

		15.10	Application of prepayment. Clause 7 shall apply in relation to any prepayment pursuant to
Clause 15.2(b).

 

		16	PAYMENTS AND CALCULATIONS 

 

		16.1	Currency and method of payments. All payments to be made by the Borrowers to the Lender
under a Finance Document shall be made to the Lender:

 

		(a)	by not later than 11.00 a.m. (New York City time) on the due date;

 

		(b)	in same day Dollars funds settled through the New York Clearing House Interbank Payment System
(or in such other Dollar funds and/or settled in such other manner as the Lender shall specify as being customary at the time for

		(c)	to the account of the Lender at Citibank N.A., III Wall Street, New York, New York U.S.A. (Account

		16.2	Payment on non-Business Day. If any payment by the Borrowers under a Finance Document would
otherwise fall due on a day which is not a Business Day:

 

		(a)	the due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day; or

 

		(b)	if the next succeeding Business Day falls in the next calendar month, the due date shall be brought
forward to the immediately preceding Business Day;

 

and interest shall be payable during
any extension under paragraph (a) at the rate payable on the original due date.

 

		16.3	Basis for calculation of periodic payments. All interest and commitment fee and any other
payments under any Finance Document which are of an annual or periodic nature shall accrue from day to day and shall be calculated
on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a 360 day year.

 

		16.4	Lender accounts. The Lender shall maintain an account showing the amounts advanced by the
Lender and all other sums owing to the Lender from the Borrowers and each Security Party under the Finance Documents and all payments
in respect of those amounts made by the Borrowers and any Security Party.

 

		16.5	Accounts prima facie evidence. If the account maintained under Clauses 20.4 shows an amount
to be owing by the Borrowers or a Security Party to the Lender, that account shall be prima facie evidence that that amount is
owing to the Lender.

 

		17	APPLICATION OF RECEIPTS 

 

		17.1	Normal order of application. Except as any Finance Document may otherwise provide, any sums
which are received or recovered by the Lender under or by virtue of any Finance Document shall be applied:

(or any of them) in such order of application and/or such proportions as the Lender may specify by notice to the Borrowers and

and payable in the future and, upon those amounts becoming due and payable, in or towards satisfaction of them in accordance with
the provisions of this Clause; and

 

    	37

or as regards sums in a specified category or categories.

 

		17.3	Notice of variation of order of application. The Lender may give notices under Clause 17.2
from time to time; and such a notice may be stated to apply not only to sums which may be received or recovered in the future,
but also to any sum which has been received or recovered on or after the third Business Day before the date on which the notice
is served.

 

		17.4	Appropriation rights overridden. This Clause 17 and any notice which the Lender gives under
Clause 17.2 shall override any right of appropriation possessed, and any appropriation made, by the Borrowers or any Security Party.

 

		18	APPLICATION OF EARNINGS

the Security Period (subject only to the provisions of the relevant General Assignment), all the Earnings of a Ship are paid to
the Earnings Account for that Ship.

 

		18.2	Interest accrued on account. Any credit balance on the Earnings Accounts shall bear interest

similar to those for which such balances appear to the Lender likely to remain the Earnings Account.

to debit the Earnings Accounts (or any of them) without prior notice in order to discharge any amount due and payable under Clause
20 or 21 to the Lender or payment of which the Lender has become entitled to demand under Clause 20 or 21.

                                         described, which is similar to an event of default in a facility agreement or a termination
                                         event in a finance lease; and in Clause 19.1(g) “petition” includes

(whether for its own account or otherwise) under any Finance Document.

 

		21.2	Breakage costs. Without
                                         limiting its generality, Clause 21.1 covers any claim, expense, liability or loss, including
                                         a loss of a prospective profit, incurred by the Lender:

 

    	43

    	 

    

   

		(a)	in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired or arranged to fund or maintain
all or any part of the Loan and/or any overdue amount (or an aggregate amount which includes the Loan or any overdue amount); and

 

		(b)	in terminating, or otherwise in connection with, any interest and/or currency swap or any other
transaction entered into (whether with another legal entity or with another office or department of the Lender) to hedge any exposure
arising under this Agreement or a number of transactions of which this Agreement is one.

 

		21.3	Miscellaneous indemnities.
                                         The Borrowers shall fully indemnify the Lender on its respective demands in respect
                                         of all claims, demands, proceedings, liabilities, taxes, losses and expenses of every
                                         kind (“liability items”) which may be made or brought against, or
                                         incurred by, the Lender in any country, in relation to:

 

		(a)	any action taken, or omitted or neglected to be taken, under or in connection with any Finance
Document by the Lender or by any receiver appointed under a Finance Document;

 

		(b)	any other event, matter or question which occurs or arises at any time during the Security Period
and which has any connection with, or any bearing on, any Finance Document, any payment or other transaction relating to a Finance
Document or any asset covered (or previously covered) by a Security Interest created (or intended to be created) by a Finance Document;

 

other than liability items which
are shown to have been caused by the gross negligence or the wilful misconduct of the Lender’s or (as the case may be) the Lender’s
own officers or employees.

 

		21.4	Currency indemnity.
                                         If any sum due from any Borrower or any Security Party to the Lender under a Finance
                                         Document or under any order or judgment relating to a Finance Document has to be converted
                                         from the currency in which the Finance Document provided for the sum to be paid (the
                                         “Contractual Currency”) into another currency (the “Payment
                                         Currency”) for the purpose of:

 

		(a)	making or lodging any claim or proof against any Borrower or any Security Party, whether in its
liquidation, any arrangement involving it or otherwise; or

 

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

 

		(c)	enforcing any such order or judgment,

 

that Borrower shall indemnify
the Lender against the loss arising when the amount of the payment actually received by the Lender is converted at the available
rate of exchange into the Contractual Currency.

 

In this Clause 21.4,
the “available rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Lender is able at the opening of business (London
time) on the Business Day after it receives the sum concerned to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Payment Currency.

 

This Clause 21.4 creates a separate
liability of any Borrower which is distinct from its other liabilities under the Finance Documents and which shall not be merged
in any judgment or order relating to those other liabilities.

 

		21.5	Certification of amounts. A notice which is signed by an authorised officer of the Lender,
which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to the Lender under this Clause 21 and which indicates (without
necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount, is due shall be prima
facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due.

 

    	44

    	 

    

 

		22	NO SET-OFF OR TAX DEDUCTION 

 

		22.1	No deductions. All amounts due from the Borrowers under a Finance Document shall be paid:

 

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

 

		(b)	free and clear of any tax deduction except a tax deduction which a Borrower is required by law
to make.

 

		22.2	Grossing-up for taxes. If a Borrower is required by law to make a tax deduction from any
payment:

 

		(a)	that Borrower shall notify the Lender as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement;

 

		(b)	that Borrower shall pay the tax deducted to the appropriate taxation authority promptly, and in
any event before any fine or penalty arises;

 

		(c)	the amount due in respect of the payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that
the Lender receives and retains (free from any liability relating to the tax deduction) a net amount which, after the tax deduction,
is equal to the full amount which it would otherwise have received.

 

		22.3	Evidence of payment of taxes. Within one month after making any tax deduction, that Borrower
shall deliver to the Lender documentary evidence satisfactory to the Lender that the tax had been paid to the appropriate taxation
authority.

 

		22.4	Exclusion of tax on overall
                                         net income. In this Clause 22 “tax deduction” means any deduction
                                         or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax except tax on the Lender’s
                                         overall net income.

 

		23	ILLEGALITY, ETC 

 

		23.1	Illegality. This Clause 23 applies if the Lender notifies the Borrowers that it has become,
or will with effect from a specified date, become:

 

		(a)	unlawful or prohibited as a result of the introduction of a new law, an amendment to an existing
law or a change in the manner in which an existing law is or will be interpreted or applied; or

 

		(b)	contrary to, or inconsistent with, any regulation,

 

for the Lender to maintain or
give effect to any of its obligations under this Agreement in the manner contemplated by this Agreement.

 

		23.2	Notification and effect
                                         of illegality. On the Lender notifying the Borrowers under Clause 23.1, the Lender’s
                                         obligation to make any further Advances shall terminate; and thereupon or, if later,
                                         on the date specified in the Lender’s notice under Clause 23.1 as the date on which
                                         the notified event would become effective (i) the Borrowers shall prepay the Loan in
                                         full in accordance with Clause 7, (ii) the Borrowers shall procure the cancellation of
                                         any liability for the Outstanding Guarantee Amount on the date specified in its
                                         notice of intended prepayment; and (iii) on the date specified in the notice of intended
                                         prepayment, the Borrowers shall pay to the Lender an amount as cash collateral to secure
                                         the amount of any Instalment Guarantee.

 

		23.3	Mitigation. If circumstances arise which would result in a notification under Clause 22.1
then, without in any way limiting the rights of the Lender under Clause 22.3, the Lender shall use reasonable endeavours to transfer
its obligations, liabilities and rights under this Agreement and the Finance Documents to another office or financial institution
not affected by the circumstances but the Lender shall not be under any obligation to take any such action if, in its opinion,
to do would or might:

 

    	45

    	 

    

 

		(a)	have an adverse effect on its business, operations or financial condition; or

 

		(b)	involve it in any activity which is unlawful or prohibited or any activity that is contrary to,
or inconsistent with, any regulation; or

 

		(c)	involve it in any expense (unless indemnified to its satisfaction) or tax disadvantage.

 

		24	INCREASED COSTS 

 

		24.1	Increased costs. This Clause 24 applies if the Lender notifies the Borrowers that it considers
that as a result of:

 

		(a)	the introduction or alteration after the date of this Agreement of a law or an alteration after
the date of this Agreement in the manner in which a law is interpreted or applied (disregarding any effect which relates to the
application to payments under this Agreement of a tax on the Lender’s overall net income); or

 

		(b)	the effect of complying with any regulation
                                         (including any which relates to capital adequacy or liquidity controls or which affects
                                         the manner in which the Lender allocates capital resources to its obligations under
                                         this Agreement) which is introduced, or altered, or the interpretation or application
                                         of which is altered, after the date of this Agreement,

 

is that the Lender (or a parent
company of it) has incurred or will incur an “increased cost”, that is to say,:

 

		(i)	an additional or increased cost incurred as a result of, or in connection with, the Lender having
entered into, or being a party to, this Agreement of funding or maintaining the Loan or performing its obligations under this Agreement,
or of having outstanding all or any part of the Loan or other unpaid sums; or

 

		(ii)	a reduction in the amount of any payment to the Lender under this Agreement or in the effective
return which such a payment represents to the Lender or on its capital;

 

		(iii)	an additional or increased cost
                                         of funding all or maintaining all or any of the advances comprised in a class of
                                         advances formed by or including the Loan or (as the case may require) the proportion
                                         of that cost attributable to the Loan; or

 

		(iv)	a liability to make a payment, or a return foregone, which is calculated by reference to any amounts
received or receivable by the Lender under this Agreement;

 

but not an item attributable
to a change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Lender (or a parent company of it) or an item covered by the indemnity
for tax in Clause 21.1 or by Clause 22.

 

For the purposes of this Clause
24.1 the Lender may in good faith allocate or spread costs and/or losses among its assets and liabilities (or any class thereof)
on such basis as it considers appropriate.

 

		24.2	Payment of increased costs.
                                         The Borrowers shall pay to the Lender, on the Lender’s demand, for the account
                                         of the Lender the amounts which the Lender from time to time notifies the Borrowers that
                                         it has specified to be necessary to compensate the Lender for the increased cost.

 

    	46

    	 

    

 

		24.3	Notice of prepayment. If a Borrower is not willing to continue to compensate the Lender
for the increased cost under Clause 24.2, that Borrower may give the Lender not less than 14 days’ notice of its intention to prepay
the Loan at the end of an Interest Period.

 

		24.4	Prepayment. A notice
                                         under Clause 24.3 shall be irrevocable and on the date specified in its notice of intended
                                         prepayment, the Borrowers shall prepay (without premium or penalty) the Loan, together
                                         with accrued interest thereon at the applicable rate plus the applicable Margin. 

 

		24.5	Application of prepayment. Clause 7 shall apply in relation to the prepayment.

 

		25	SET-OFF

in the name of any Borrower at any office in any country of the Lender in or towards satisfaction of any sum then due from any
Borrower to the Lender under any of the Finance Documents; and

 

		(b)	for that purpose:

 

		(i)	break, or alter the maturity of, all or any part of a deposit of any Borrower;

 

		(ii)	convert or translate all or any part of a deposit or other credit balance into Dollars;

 

		(iii)	enter into any other transaction
                                         or make any entry with regard to the credit balance which the Lender considers
                                         appropriate.

 

		25.2	Existing rights unaffected. The Lender shall not be obliged to exercise any of its rights
under Clause 25.1; and those rights shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts,
charge, lien or other right or remedy to which the Lender is entitled (whether under the general law or any document).

 

		25.3	No Security Interest. This Clause 25 gives the Lender a contractual right of set-off only,
and does not create any equitable charge or other Security Interest over any credit balance of any Borrower.

 

		26	TRANSFERS AND CHANGES IN LENDING OFFICES 

 

		26.1	Transfer by Borrowers. No Borrower may, without the consent of the Lender transfer any of

by reference to the loss incurred by that assignee as a result of the breach or misrepresentation irrespective of whether the Lender
would have incurred a loss of that kind or amount.

 

    	47

    	 

    

 

		26.4	Sub-participation; subrogation assignment. The Lender may sub-participate all or any part
of its rights and/or obligations under or in connection with the Finance Documents without the consent of, or any notice to, the
Borrowers; and the Lender may assign, in any manner and terms agreed by it, all or any part of those rights to an insurer or surety
who has become subrogated to them.

 

		26.5	Disclosure of information.
                                         The Lender may disclose to a potential assignee or sub-participant any information
                                         which the Lender has received in relation to any Borrower, any Security Party or their
                                         affairs under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless the information

Finance Document to which a Security Party is party, by that Security Party.

 

		27.2	Exclusion of other or implied variations. Except for a document which satisfies the requirements
of Clause 27.1, no document, and no act, course of conduct, failure or neglect to act, delay or acquiescence on the part of the

                                         Finance Document; or

Borrower under Clause 14,1, the Borrower shall, within 1 month after the date on which the Lender’s notice is served, either:

purpose;

 

    	30

    	 

    

 

		(c)	with or without physical inspection of the Ship (as the Lender may require);

 

		(d)	on the basis of a sale for prompt delivery for cash on normal arm’s length commercial terms as

		(f)	after deducting the estimated amount of the usual and reasonable expenses which would be incurred
in connection with the sale.

 

In case such valuation is not accepted
by the Borrower, then the Borrower shall have the right to appoint another shipbroker to value the Ship on the same basis. In case
of a difference in value of greater than 10 per cent. in the amount of each valuation, the Lender and the Borrower agree to accept
the valuation of a third shipbroker nominated by each party (such valuation to be formally requested by and addressed to the Lender),
otherwise the valuation by the shipbroker appointed by the Lender shall prevail. Each Borrower agrees to supply to the Lender and
to any such shipbroker such information concerning its Ship and its condition as such shipbroker may require for the purpose of
making such valuation.

 

		14.6	Value of additional security. The net realisable value of any additional security which
is provided under Clause 14.1 and which consists of a Security Interest over a vessel shall be that shown by a valuation complying

as regards the Borrower, as shall be any valuation which the Lender makes of a security which does not consist of or include a
Security Interest.

or expert acting under Clause 14.4 or 14.5 with any information which the Lender or the broker or expert may request for the purposes

be made on any basis and assumptions which the broker or the Lender (or the expert appointed by them) consider prudent.

 

		14.9	Payment of valuation expenses. Without prejudice to the generality of the Borrower’s obligations
under Clauses 18.2, 18.3 and 19.3, the Borrower shall, on demand, pay the Lender the amount of the fees and expenses of any broker
or expert instructed by the Lender under this Clause and all legal and other expenses incurred by the Lender in connection with
any matter arising out of this Clause.

and interest shall be payable during
any extension under paragraph (a) at the rate payable on the original due date.

		17.6	Exclusion of Lender liability. Neither the Lender nor any receiver or manager appointed
by the Lender, shall have any liability to the Borrower or a Security Party:

produced by or realised from any asset comprised in such a Security Interest or for any reduction (however caused) in the value

except that this does not exempt
the Lender or a receiver or manager from liability for losses shown to have been caused directly and mainly by the dishonesty or

or employees.

 

		17.7	Relevant Persons. In this Clause 17 a “Relevant Person” means the Borrower

There shall be recoverable under
paragraph (e) the full amount of all legal expenses, whether or not such as would be allowed under rules of court or any taxation
or other procedure carried out under such rules.

 

		18.4	Documentary taxes. The Borrower shall promptly pay any tax payable on or by reference to
any Finance Document, and shall, on the Lender’s demand, fully indemnify the Lender against any claims, expenses, liabilities and
losses resulting from any failure or delay by the Borrower to pay such a tax.

 

		18.5	Certification of amounts. A notice which is signed by an authorised officer of the Lender,
which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to that Lender under this Clause 18 and which indicates (without
necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount, is due shall be prima
facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due.

 

		19	INDEMNITIES 

 

		19.1	Indemnities regarding borrowing and repayment of Loan. The Borrower shall fully indemnify
the Lender on its demand in respect of all claims, expenses, liabilities and losses which are made or brought against or incurred
by the Lender, or which the Lender reasonably and with due diligence estimates that it will incur, as a result of or in connection
with:

 

		(a)	the Loan not being borrowed on the date specified in the Drawdown Notice for any reason other than
a default by the Lender;

 

		(b)	the receipt or recovery of all or any part of the Loan or an overdue sum otherwise than on the
last day of an Interest Period or other relevant period;

 

		(c)	any failure (for whatever reason) by the Borrower to make payment of any amount due under a Finance
Document on the due date or, if so payable, on demand (after giving credit for any default interest paid by the Borrower on the
amount concerned under Clause 6;

 

    	37

    	 

    

 

		(d)	the occurrence and/or continuance of an Event of Default or a Potential Event of Default and/or
the acceleration of repayment of the Loan under Clause 17;

 

and in respect of any tax (other
than tax on its overall net income) for which the Lender is liable in connection with any amount paid or payable to the Lender
(whether for its own account or otherwise) under any Finance Document.

 

		19.2	Breakage costs. Without
                                         limiting its generality, Clause 19.1 covers any claim, expense, liability or loss, including
                                         a loss of a prospective profit, incurred by the Lender:

 

		(a)	in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties acquired or arranged to fund or maintain
all or any part of the Loan and/or any overdue amount (or an aggregate amount which includes the Loan or any overdue amount); and

 

		(b)	in terminating, or otherwise in connection with, any interest and/or currency swap or any other
transaction entered into (whether with another legal entity or with another office or department of the Lender) to hedge any exposure
arising under this Agreement or a number of transactions of which this Agreement is one.

 

		19.3	Miscellaneous indemnities. The Borrower shall fully indemnify the Lender on its respective
demands in respect of all claims, demands, proceedings, liabilities, taxes, losses and expenses of every kind (“liability
items”) which may be made or brought against, or incurred by, the Lender in any country, in relation to:

 

		(a)	any action taken, or omitted or neglected to be taken, under or in connection with any Finance
Document by the Lender or by any receiver appointed under a Finance Document;

 

		(b)	any other event, matter or question which occurs or arises at any time during the Security Period
and which has any connection with, or any bearing on, any Finance Document, any payment or other transaction relating to a Finance
Document or any asset covered (or previously covered) by a Security Interest created (or intended to be created) by a Finance Document;

 

other than liability items which
are shown to have been caused by the gross negligence or the wilful misconduct of the Lender’s or (as the case may be) the Lender’s
own officers or employees.

 

		19.4	Currency indemnity. If any sum due from the Borrower or any Security Party to the Lender
under a Finance Document or under any order or judgment relating to a Finance Document has to be converted from the currency in
which the Finance Document provided for the sum to be paid (the “Contractual Currency”) into another currency
(the “Payment Currency”) for the purpose of:

 

		(a)	making or lodging any claim or proof against the Borrower or any Security Party, whether in its
liquidation, any arrangement involving it or otherwise; or

 

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

 

		(c)	enforcing any such order or judgment,

 

the Borrower shall indemnify the
Lender against the loss arising when the amount of the payment actually received by the Lender is converted at the available rate
of exchange into the Contractual Currency.

 

In this Clause 19.4, the “available
rate of exchange” means the rate at which the Lender is able at the opening of business (London time) on the Business
Day after it receives the sum concerned to purchase the Contractual Currency with the Payment Currency.

 

    	38

    	 

    

 

This Clause 19.4 creates a separate
liability of the Borrower which is distinct from its other liabilities under the Finance Documents and which shall not be merged
in any judgment or order relating to those other liabilities. 

 

		19.5	Certification of amounts. A notice which is signed by an authorised officer of the Lender,
which states that a specified amount, or aggregate amount, is due to the Lender under this Clause 19 and which indicates (without
necessarily specifying a detailed breakdown) the matters in respect of which the amount, or aggregate amount, is due shall be prima
facie evidence that the amount, or aggregate amount, is due.

 

		20	NO SET-OFF OR TAX DEDUCTION 

 

		20.1	No deductions. All amounts due from the Borrower under a Finance Document shall be paid:

 

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

 

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

 

		20.2	Grossing-up for taxes. If the Borrower is required by law to make a tax deduction from any
payment:

 

		(a)	the Borrower shall notify the Lender as soon as it becomes aware of the requirement;

 

		(b)	the Borrower shall pay the tax deducted to the appropriate taxation authority promptly, and in
any event before any fine or penalty arises;

 

		(c)	the amount due in respect of the payment shall be increased by the amount necessary to ensure that
the Lender receives and retains (free from any liability relating to the tax deduction) a net amount which, after the tax deduction,
is equal to the full amount which it would otherwise have received.

 

		20.3	Evidence of payment of taxes. Within one month after making any tax deduction, the Borrower
shall deliver to the Lender documentary evidence satisfactory to the Lender that the tax had been paid to the appropriate taxation
authority.

 

		20.4	Exclusion of tax on overall net income. In this Clause 20 “tax deduction” means
any deduction or withholding for or on account of any present or future tax except tax on the Lender’s overall net income.

 

		21	ILLEGALITY, ETC 

 

		21.1	Illegality. This Clause 21 applies if the Lender notifies the Borrower that it has become,
or will with effect from a specified date, become:

 

		(a)	unlawful or prohibited as a result of the introduction of a new law, an amendment to an existing
law or a change in the manner in which an existing law is or will be interpreted or applied; or

 

		(b)	contrary to, or inconsistent with, any regulation,

 

for the Lender to maintain or give
effect to any of its obligations under this Agreement in the manner contemplated by this Agreement.

 

		21.2	Notification and effect of illegality. On the Lender notifying the Borrower under Clause
21.1, the Lender’s obligation to advance the Loan shall terminate; and thereupon or, if later, on the date specified in the Lender’s
notice under Clause 21.1 as the date on which the notified event would become effective the Borrower shall prepay the Loan in full
in accordance with Clause 7.

 

    	39

    	 

    

 

		21.3	Mitigation. If circumstances arise which would result in a notification under Clause 21.1
then, without in any way limiting the rights of the Lender under Clause 21.2, the Lender shall use reasonable endeavours to transfer
its obligations, liabilities and rights under this Agreement and the Finance Documents to another office or financial institution
not affected by the circumstances but the Lender shall not be under any obligation to take any such action if, in its opinion,
to do would or might:

 

		(a)	have an adverse effect on its business, operations or financial condition; or

 

		(b)	involve it in any activity which is unlawful or prohibited or any activity that is contrary to,
or inconsistent with, any regulation; or

 

		(c)	involve it in any expense (unless indemnified to its satisfaction) or tax disadvantage.

 

		22	INCREASED COSTS 

 

		22.1	Increased costs. This Clause 22 applies if the Lender notifies the Borrower that it considers
that as a result of:

 

		(a)	the introduction or alteration after the date of this Agreement of a law or an alteration after
the date of this Agreement in the manner in which a law is interpreted or applied (disregarding any effect which relates to the
application to payments under this Agreement of a tax on the Lender’s overall net income); or

 

		(b)	the effect of complying with any regulation (including any which relates to capital adequacy or
liquidity controls or which affects the manner in which the Lender allocates capital resources to its obligations under this Agreement)
which is introduced, or altered, or the interpretation or application of which is altered, after the date of this Agreement,

 

is that the Lender (or a parent company
of it) has incurred or will incur an “increased cost”, that is to say,:

 

		(i)	an additional or increased cost incurred as a result of, or in connection with, the Lender having
entered into, or being a party to, this Agreement of funding or maintaining the Loan or performing its obligations under this Agreement,
or of having outstanding all or any part of the Loan or other unpaid sums; or

 

		(ii)	a reduction in the amount of any payment to the Lender under this Agreement or in the effective
return which such a payment represents to the Lender or on its capital;

 

		(iii)	an additional or increased cost of funding all or maintaining all or any of the advances comprised
in a class of advances formed by or including the Loan or (as the case may require) the proportion of that cost attributable to
the Loan; or

 

		(iv)	a liability to make a payment, or a return foregone, which is calculated by reference to any amounts
received or receivable by the Lender under this Agreement;

 

but not an item attributable to a
change in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Lender (or a parent company of it) or an item covered by the indemnity
for tax in Clause 20.1 or by Clause 21.

 

    	40

    	 

    

 

For the purposes of this Clause 22.1
the Lender may in good faith allocate or spread costs and/or losses among its assets and liabilities (or any class thereof) on
such basis as it considers appropriate.

 

		22.2	Payment of increased costs. The Borrower shall pay to the Lender, on the Lender’s demand,
the amounts which the Lender from time to time notifies the Borrower that it has specified to be necessary to compensate the Lender
for the increased cost.

 

		22.3	Notice of prepayment. If the Borrower is not willing to continue to compensate the Lender
for the increased cost under Clause 22.2, it may give the Lender not less than 20 Business Days notice of its intention
to prepay the Loan. If the prepayment is made on a date other than at the end of an Interest Period, the Borrower shall indemnify
the Lender in respect of any amount that arises pursuant to Clause 19.

 

		22.4	Prepayment. A notice under Clause 22.3 shall be irrevocable and on the date specified
in its notice of intended prepayment, the Borrower shall prepay (without premium or penalty) the Loan, together with accrued interest
thereon at the applicable rate plus the applicable Margin.

 

		22.5	Application of prepayment. Clause 7 shall apply in relation to the prepayment.

 

		23	SET-OFF 

 

		23.1	Application of credit balances. The Lender may without prior notice:

 

		(a)	apply any balance (whether or not then due), which at any time stands to the credit of any
                                                           account in the name of the Borrower at any office in any country of the Lender in or towards satisfaction of any sum then due
                                                           from the Borrower to the Lender under any of the Finance Documents; and

 

		(b)	for that purpose:

 

		(i)	break, or alter the maturity of, all or any part of a deposit of the Borrower;

 

		(ii)	convert or translate all or any part of a deposit or other credit balance into Dollars;

 

		(iii)	enter into any other transaction or make any entry with regard to the credit balance which the
Lender considers appropriate.

 

		23.2	Existing rights unaffected. The Lender shall not be obliged to exercise any of its rights
under Clause 23.1; and those rights shall be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, combination of accounts,
charge, lien or other right or remedy to which the Lender is entitled (whether under the general law or any document).

 

		23.3	No Security Interest. This Clause 23 gives the Lender a contractual right of set-off only,
and does not create any equitable charge or other Security Interest over any credit balance of any Borrower.

 

		24	TRANSFERS AND CHANGES IN LENDING OFFICES 

 

		24.1	Transfer by Borrower. The Borrower may not, without the consent of the Lender transfer any
of its rights, liabilities or obligations under any Finance Document.

provision of a Finance Document, or any misrepresentation made in or in connection with a Finance Document, a direct or indirect
assignee of any of the Lender’s rights or interests under or by virtue of the Finance Documents shall be entitled to recover damages
by reference to the loss incurred by that assignee as a result of the breach or misrepresentation irrespective of whether the Lender
would have incurred a loss of that kind or amount.

 

		24.4	Sub-participation; subrogation assignment. The Lender may sub-participate all or any part
of its rights and/or obligations under or in connection with the Finance Documents without the consent of, or any notice to, the

who has become subrogated to them.

 

		24.5	Disclosure of information. The Lender may disclose to a potential assignee or sub-participant
