Flow calculation under Clause 23.23 (Excess Cash Flow). Such prepayment and, if applicable, payment of any surplus proceeds into the Earnings Account in respect of that Vessel, shall be made: 

 

	(a)	 in the case of a sale of that Vessel, on or before the date on which the sale is completed by delivery of that
Vessel to the buyer; or

prepayment. 

  

	(b)	 Any prepayment under this Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid and all
other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents and, subject to the fee provided for in Clause 11.2 (Prepayment fee) and any Break Costs, without premium or penalty.

it shall promptly forward a copy of that notice to either the Borrowers or the affected Lender, as appropriate. 

  

	(g)	 If all or part of any Lender’s participation in the Loan is repaid or prepaid, an amount of that
Lender’s Commitment (equal to the amount of the participation which is repaid or prepaid) will be deemed to be cancelled on the date of repayment or prepayment.

Any prepayment of any part of the Loan (other than a prepayment pursuant to Clause 7.1 (Illegality) shall be applied in
inverse order of maturity to each Lender’s participation in that part of the Loan.

ending on 31 December 2019. Such Shortfall Amount shall be applied in or towards prepayment of the then outstanding Requisite Commitment Amount and then subsequently towards the Repayment Instalments and balloon payments in inverse order of
maturity.

 SECTION 5 

COSTS OF DRAWDOWN 
  

	8	 INTEREST 

  

	8.1	 Calculation of interest 

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

  

	(a)	 the Margin; and 

  

	(b)	 LIBOR. 

  

	8.2	 Payment of interest 

 

	(a)	 The Borrowers shall pay accrued interest on the Loan or any part of the Loan on the last day of each Interest
Period (each an “Interest Payment Date”). 

  

	(b)	 If an Interest Period is longer than three Months, the Borrowers shall also pay interest then accrued on the
Loan or the relevant part of the Loan on the dates falling at three Monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period. 

  

	8.3	 Fixed rate of interest 

 

	(a)	 The Borrowers may, by giving not less than five Business Days’ notice in writing, request that a fixed
rate of interest shall apply on the whole of the Loan or a Tranche for a period of 12 months or more by giving to the Facility Agent a notice which shall specify the period for which the fixed rate of interest shall apply and shall be given at least
five Business Days before the end of the then current Interest Period of the Loan or that Tranche (as applicable). The Facility Agent shall notify the Borrowers of the fixed rate of interest to apply (which shall be determined at the level of the
actual refinancing rates available to the Lenders (as certified by them) for the relevant period to which such fixed rate is to apply plus the Margin) and the Borrowers shall either accept or refuse the offer promptly in writing and in any event
within one Business Day. Such offer and acceptance shall be in a form that shall constitute a Finance Document. Once accepted, the Borrowers may not revoke their acceptance and the relevant fixed rate of interest shall apply to the Loan or a Tranche
from the first day of the next Interest Period of the Loan or that Tranche (as applicable). If the Borrowers refuse the offer or fail to accept it within the time permitted for acceptance, the other provisions of this Clause 8
(Interest) shall continue to apply. 

  

	(b)	 The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that in fixing the interest rate under this Clause 8.3 (Fixed
rate of interest), a Lender may enter into internal or external interest rate swaps and that any claim, expense, liability or loss arising as a result of the early termination of such internal or external rate swap shall be for the
account of the Borrowers. 

  

	8.4	 Default interest 

 

	(a)	 If a Transaction Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date,
interest shall accrue on the Unpaid Sum from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is 2 per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have
been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted part of the Loan in the currency of the Unpaid Sum for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility
Agent. Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.4 (Default interest) shall be immediately payable by the Obligors on demand by the Facility Agent. 

  
 37 

	(b)	 If an Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of the Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an
Interest Period relating to the Loan or that part of the Loan: 

  

	 	(i)	 the first Interest Period for that Unpaid Sum shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the
current Interest Period relating to the Loan or that part of the Loan; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 the rate of interest applying to that Unpaid Sum during that first Interest Period shall be 2 per cent.
per annum higher than the rate which would have applied if that Unpaid Sum had not become due. 

  

	(c)	 Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an Unpaid Sum will be compounded with the Unpaid Sum at the end of each
Interest Period applicable to that Unpaid Sum but will remain immediately due and payable. 

  

	8.5	 Notification of rates of interest 

 

	(a)	 The Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrowers of the determination of a rate of
interest under this Agreement. 

  

	(b)	 The Facility Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of each Funding Rate relating to the Loan, any part of
the Loan or any Unpaid Sum.

below, each Tranche shall have one Interest Period only at any time and all Tranches shall have the same Interest Period. 

  
 38

relevant Selection Notice, subject to Clause 9.1(e) (Selection of Interest Periods). 

  

	(b)	 If after the Borrowers have selected and the Lenders have agreed an Interest Period longer than three Months,
any Lender notifies the Facility Agent within two Business Days after the Specified Time relating to the relevant Drawdown Request or Selection Notice that it is not satisfied that deposits in dollars for a period equal to the Interest Period will
be available to it in the Relevant Interbank Market when the Interest Period commences, the Facility Agent shall shorten the Interest Period to three Months. 

  

	(c)	 If the Facility Agent makes any change to an Interest Period referred to in this Clause 9.2 (Changes to
Interest Periods), it shall promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders. 

  

	9.3	 Non-Business Days 

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day
in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

	(b)	 Reference Bank Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for: 

 

	 	(i)	 dollars; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 the Interest Period of the Loan or any part of the Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated
Screen Rate, 

 the applicable LIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time and for a period equal in
length to the Interest Period of the Loan or that part of the Loan. 
  

	(c)	 Cost of funds: If paragraph (b) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for
dollars or the relevant Interest Period there shall be no LIBOR for the Loan or that part of the Loan (as applicable) and Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to the Loan or that part of the Loan for that Interest Period.

  

	10.2	 Calculation of Reference Bank Rate 

 

	(a)	 Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a
Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time, the Reference Bank Rate shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks. 

 

	(b)	 If at or about noon on the Quotation Day none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there
shall be no Reference Bank Rate for the relevant Interest Period. 

  
 39 

	10.3	 Market disruption 

If before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Facility Agent receives notification from a
Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan exceed 10 per cent. of the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan as appropriate) (the “Relevant Lender”) that the cost to it of funding its
participation in the Loan or that part of the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR then Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to the Loan or that part of the Loan (as applicable) for the relevant
Interest Period. 
  

	10.4	 Cost of funds 

 

	(a)	 If this Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) applies, the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of the
Loan or the relevant part of the Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Margin; and 

  

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

  

	(b)	 If this Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) applies and the Facility Agent or the Borrowers so require, the
Facility Agent and the Borrowers shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest or (as the case may be) an alternative basis for funding.

  

	(c)	 Subject to Clause 42.4 (Replacement of Screen Rate), any substitute or alternative basis agreed pursuant
to paragraph (b) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrowers, be binding on all Parties.

	 	(i)	 a Lender’s Funding Rate is less than LIBOR; or 

 

	 	(ii)	 a Lender does not supply a quotation by the time specified in
sub-paragraph (ii) of paragraph (a) above, 

 the cost to that Lender of
funding its participation in the Loan or the relevant part of the Loan for that Interest Period shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph (a) above, to be LIBOR.

required by law. 

  

	(b)	 The Borrowers shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is
any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives
such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrowers and that Obligor. 

  

	(c)	 If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor
shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. 

 

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

  

	(e)	 Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction,
the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate
payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

 42 

	(b)	 Paragraph (a) above shall not apply: 

 

	 	(i)	 with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party:

jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or 

  

	 	(B)	 under the law of the jurisdiction in which 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 (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or 
  

	 	(ii)	 to the extent a loss, liability or cost: 

 

	 	(A)	 is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross- up); or

or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was received; and 

  

	(b)	 that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit, 

the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor. 
  

	12.5	 Stamp taxes 

The Obligors shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Creditor Party against any cost, loss or liability which that
Creditor Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document. 
  

	12.6	 VAT 

  

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

  
 43 

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

  

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

 

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

  

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

  

	(d)	 Any reference in this Clause 12.6 (VAT) to any Party shall, at any time when that Party is treated as a
member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who is treated at that time as making the supply, or (as appropriate) receiving the
supply, under the grouping rules (provided for in Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or
the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant representative member (or representative or head) of that group or unity at the relevant time (as the case may be).

  

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

  

	12.7	 FATCA Information 

 

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

  

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

 

	 	(A)	 a FATCA Exempt Party; or 

 

	 	(B)	 not a FATCA Exempt Party; and 

  
 44 

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

  

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

  

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

 

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

 

	 	(i)	 any law or regulation; 

 

	 	(ii)	 any fiduciary duty; or 

 

	 	(iii)	 any duty of confidentiality. 

 

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	 	(iii)	 the date of a request from the Facility Agent, 

supply to the Facility Agent: 
  

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

  

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

  

	(f)	 The Facility Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or

all such other Transaction Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents;

any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it were the principal obligor; and

illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of a Transaction Obligor other than the Guarantor not paying any amount which
would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would
have had to pay under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee. 

  

	16.2	 Continuing guarantee 

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

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Transaction Obligor or any security for those
obligations or otherwise) is made by a Creditor Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation,
then the liability of the Guarantor under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred. 

 

	16.4	 Waiver of defences 

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity) and in respect of any Transaction Security will not be
affected or discharged by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 16.4 (Waiver of defences) would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity) or in respect of
any Transaction Security (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Creditor Party) including: 
  

	(a)	 anytime, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Transaction Obligor or other person;

  

	(b)	 the release of any other Transaction Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or
arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;

in perfecting, or refusal or neglect to take up or enforce, or delay in taking or enforcing any rights against, or security over assets of, any Transaction Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security; 

 

	(d)	 any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or
status of a Transaction Obligor or any other person; 

  

	(e)	 any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more
onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance
Document or other document or security; 

  

	(f)	 any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or
any other document or security; or 

  

	(g)	 any insolvency or similar proceedings. 

 

	16.5	 Immediate recourse 

The Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Creditor Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or
enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document or to enforce any Transaction Security) before claiming or commencing proceedings under this
Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary. 
  

	16.6	 Appropriations 

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

	(a)	 refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Creditor Party
(or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantor shall not be entitled to the benefit of the
same; and 

  

	(b)	 hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Guarantor or on account of the
Guarantor’s liability under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity). 

  

	16.7	 Deferral of Guarantor’s rights 

All rights which the Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of this Guarantee, a mortgage or any other transaction) against the
Borrower, any other Transaction Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Creditor Parties under the Finance Documents and until the end of the Security Period and unless the Facility Agent otherwise
directs, the Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have (whether in respect of any Finance Document to which it is a Party or any other transaction) by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by
reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity): 
  

	(a)	 to be indemnified by a Transaction Obligor; 

 

	(b)	 to claim any contribution from any third party providing security for, or any other guarantor of, any
Transaction Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents; 

  
 53 

	(c)	 to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the
Creditor Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Creditor Party; 

 

	(d)	 to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Transaction Obligor to make any payment, or
perform any obligation, in respect of which the Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 16.1 (Guarantee and indemnity); 

  

	(e)	 to exercise any right of set-off against any Transaction Obligor;
and/or 

  

	(f)	 to claim or prove as a creditor of any Transaction Obligor in competition with any Creditor Party.

 If the Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit,
payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Creditor Parties by the Transaction Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Creditor
Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment Mechanics). 

 

	16.8	 Additional security 

This Guarantee and any other Security given by the Guarantor is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by, and shall not prejudice,
any other guarantee or Security or any other right of recourse now or subsequently held by any Creditor Party or any right of set-off or netting or right to combine accounts in connection with the Finance
Documents.

recourse)16.5, 16.6 (Appropriations), 16.7 (Deferral of Guarantor’s rights) and 16.8 (Additional security) shall apply, with any necessary modifications, to any Security which the Guarantor creates (whether at the time

 SECTION 10 

CHANGES TO PARTIES 
  

	27	 CHANGES TO THE LENDERS 

 

	27.1	 Assignments and transfers by the Lenders 

Subject to this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders), a Lender (the “Existing Lender”)
may: 
  

	(a)	 assign any of its rights; or 

 

	(b)	 transfer by novation any of its rights and obligations, 

under the Finance Documents to another person other than an individual or to another bank or financial institution or to a trust, fund or other
entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (the “New Lender”). 

 

	27.2	 Conditions of assignment or transfer 

 

	(a)	 The consent of the Borrowers (or any other Transaction Obligor) is required for an assignment or transfer by an
Existing Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. The consent of the Facility Agent is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld. 

 

	(b)	 An assignment will only be effective on: 

 

	 	(i)	 receipt by the Facility Agent (whether in the Assignment Agreement or otherwise) of written confirmation from
the New Lender (in form and substance satisfactory to the Facility Agent) that the New Lender will assume the same obligations to the other Creditor Parties as it would have been under if it were an Original Lender; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 performance by the Facility Agent of all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under
all applicable laws and regulations in relation to such assignment to a New Lender, the completion of which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify to the Existing Lender and the New Lender. 

 

	(c)	 A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 27.5 (Procedure for
transfer) is complied with. 

  

	(d)	 If: 

  

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

  

	 	(ii)	 as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, a Transaction
Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) or under that Clause as incorporated by reference or in full in any
other Finance Document or Clause 13 (Increased Costs), 

 then the New Lender or Lender acting through
its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred.
This paragraph (d) shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facility. 

  
 95 

	(e)	 Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement, confirms, for the
avoidance of doubt, that: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Facility Agent has authority to execute on its behalf any amendment or waiver that has been approved by or
on behalf of the requisite Lender or Lenders in accordance with this Agreement on or prior to the date on which the transfer or assignment becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent
as the Existing Lender would have been had it remained a Lender; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 it has received a copy of each of the Security Documents which are governed by German law and which are account
pledges, is aware of the contents of such account pledges and expressly consents to the declarations of the Security Agent made on behalf of the New Lender (as future pledgee) in such account pledges. 

 

	27.3	 Assignment or transfer fee 

The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Facility Agent (for its own account) a fee of
$10,000. 
  

	27.4	 Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders 

 

	(a)	 Unless expressly agreed to the contrary, an Existing Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no
responsibility to a New Lender for: 

  

	 	(i)	 the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of the Transaction Documents, the Transaction
Security or any other documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	 the financial condition of any Transaction Obligor; 

 

	 	(iii)	 the performance and observance by any Transaction Obligor of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or
any other documents; or 

  

	 	(iv)	 the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Transaction Document
or any other 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 and the Creditor Parties that it:

  

	 	(i)	 has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial
condition and affairs of each Transaction Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender or any other Finance Party in
connection with any Transaction Document or the Transaction Security; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Transaction Obligor and its
related entities throughout the Security Period. 

  

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

 

	 	(i)	 accept a re-transfer or
re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders); or 

 

	 	(ii)	 support any losses directly or indirectly incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Transaction Obligor of its obligations under the Transaction Documents or otherwise. 

  
 96 

	27.5	 Procedure for transfer 

 

	(a)	 Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 27.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer), a
transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent shall, subject to
paragraph (b) below as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with this Agreement and delivered in accordance with this Agreement, execute that Transfer
Certificate. Upon execution by the Facility Agent, the Security Agent shall also execute the Transfer Certificate. 

  

	(b)	 The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing
Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the transfer to such New Lender. 

 

	(c)	 Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

  

	 	(i)	 to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and
obligations under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security, each of the Transaction Obligors and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of
the Transaction Security and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents and in respect of the Transaction Security shall be cancelled (being the “Discharged Rights and Obligations”);

  

	 	(ii)	 each of the Transaction Obligors and the New Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire
rights against one another which differ from the Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as that Transaction Obligor and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Transaction Obligor and the Existing Lender;

  

	 	(iii)	 the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same
rights and assume the same obligations between themselves and in respect of the Transaction Security as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a
result of the transfer and to that extent the Facility Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger and the Existing Lenders shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and 

 

	 	(iv)	 the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”. 

 

	27.6	 Procedure for assignment 

 

	(a)	 Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 27.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) an
assignment may be effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent shall, subject to
paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement,
execute that Assignment Agreement. Upon execution by the Facility Agent, the Security Agent shall also execute the Assignment Agreement. 

  

	(b)	 The Facility Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing
Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assignment to such New Lender.

  
 97 

	(c)	 Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

respect of the Transaction Security expressed to be the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement; 

  

	 	(ii)	 the Existing Lender will be released from the obligations (the “Relevant
Obligations”) expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement (and any corresponding obligations by which it is bound in respect of the Transaction Security); and 

 

	 	(iii)	 the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender” and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the
Relevant Obligations. 

  

	(d)	 Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 27.6 (Procedure for
assignment) to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Transaction Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release
by that Transaction Obligor from the obligations owed to that Transaction Obligor by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in Clause 27.2
(Conditions of assignment or transfer). 

  

	27.7	 Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrowers 

The Facility Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Certificate or an Assignment Agreement, send to
the Borrowers a copy of that Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement. 
  

	27.8	 Security over Lenders’ rights 

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders), each Lender may without
consulting with or obtaining consent from any Transaction Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure
obligations of that Lender including, without limitation: 
  

	(a)	 any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank; and

  

	(b)	 any charge, assignment or other Security granted to any holders (or trustee or representatives of holders) of
obligations owed, or securities issued, by that Lender as security for those obligations or securities, 

 except that no
such charge, assignment or Security shall: 
  

	 	(i)	 release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the
relevant charge, assignment or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 require any payments to be made by a Transaction Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any
more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents. 

  

	27.9	 Pro rata interest settlement 

If the Facility Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata
basis” to Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 27.6 

  
 98 

 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is
after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period): 
  

	(a)	 any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the
lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further
interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period (or, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the next of the dates which falls at six Monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period); and

  

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

  

	 	(i)	 when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and

  

	 	(ii)	 the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of
this Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts. 

  

	(c)	 In this Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement) references to “Interest
Period” shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees. 

  

	28	 CHANGES TO THE TRANSACTION OBLIGORS

No Transaction Obligor may assign any of its rights or transfer any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents. 

 

	28.2	 Release of security 

 

	(a)	 If a disposal of any asset subject to security created by a Security Document is made in the following
circumstances: 

  

	 	(i)	 the disposal is permitted by the terms of any Finance Document; 

 

	 	(ii)	 all the Lenders agree to the disposal; 

 

	 	(iii)	 the disposal is being made at the request of the Security Agent in circumstances where any security created by
the Security Documents has become enforceable; or 

  

	 	(iv)	 the disposal is being effected by enforcement of a Security Document, 

the Security Agent may release the asset(s) being disposed of from any security over those assets created by a Security Document. However, the
proceeds of any disposal (or an amount corresponding to them) must be applied in accordance with the requirements of the Finance Documents (if any). 
  

	(b)	 If the Security Agent is satisfied that a release is allowed under this Clause 28.2 (Release of
security) (at the request and expense of the Borrowers) each Finance Party must enter into any document and do all such other things which are reasonably required to achieve that release. Each other Finance Party irrevocably authorises
the Security Agent to enter into any such document. Any release will not affect the obligations of any other Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents.

exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Facility Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives any such instructions or clarification that it has requested. 

 

	(c)	 Save in the case of decisions stipulated to be a matter for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties
under the relevant Finance Document and unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, any instructions given to the Facility Agent by the Majority Lenders shall override any conflicting instructions given by any other Parties and will

action;

opposed to its role of Facility Agent for the relevant Finance Parties. 

  
 100 

	(e)	 If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders would in the Facility Agent’s opinion have
an effect equivalent to an amendment or waiver referred to in Clause 42 (Amendments and Waivers), the Facility Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party
(other than the Facility Agent) whose consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

not received any instructions as to the exercise of that discretion the Facility Agent shall do so having regard to the interests of all the Finance Parties.

Finance Parties until it has received any indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Finance Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss
or liability (together with any applicable VAT) which it may incur in complying with those instructions. 

  

	(h)	 Without prejudice to the remainder of this Clause 29.2 (Instructions) in the absence of
instructions, the Facility Agent shall not be obliged to take any action (or refrain from taking action) even if it considers acting or not acting to be in the best interests of the Finance Parties. The Facility Agent may act (or refrain from
acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of the Finance Parties. 

  

	(i)	 The Facility Agent is not authorised to act on behalf of a Finance Party (without first obtaining that Finance
Party’s consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings relating to any Finance Document. This paragraph (i) shall not apply to any legal or arbitration proceeding relating to the perfection, preservation or protection of rights under the
Security Documents or enforcement of the Transaction Security or Security Documents.

	(b)	 The Facility Agent may assume (unless it has received notice to the contrary in its capacity as agent for the
Finance Parties) that: 

  

	 	(i)	 no Default has occurred (unless it has actual knowledge of a Default arising under Clause 26.2 (Non-payment)); 

  

	 	(ii)	 any right, power, authority or discretion vested in any Party or any group of Finance Parties has not been
exercised; and 

  
 102

	(e)	 The Facility Agent may rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or

default on the part of any such person,

	(g)	 Unless a Finance Document expressly provides otherwise the Facility Agent may disclose to any other Party any
information it reasonably believes it has received as agent under the Finance Documents. 

  

	(h)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Facility Agent nor the

	(i)	 Notwithstanding any provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, the Facility Agent is not obliged to
expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of
such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

	(c)	 any determination as to whether any information provided or to be provided to any Finance Party or Creditor

person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of: 

  

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

 

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

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

 

	(e)	 Without prejudice to any provision of any Finance Document excluding or limiting the Facility Agent’s
liability, any liability of the Facility Agent arising under or in connection with any Transaction Document or the Security Property shall be limited to the amount of actual loss which has been finally judicially determined to have been suffered (as
determined by reference to the date of default of the Facility Agent or, if later, the date on which the loss arises as a result of such default) but without reference to any special conditions or circumstances known to the Facility Agent at any
time which increase the amount of that loss. In no event shall the Facility Agent be liable for any loss of profits, goodwill, reputation, business opportunity or anticipated saving, or for special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages,

reason of the Facility Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct) (or, in the case of any cost, loss or liability pursuant to Clause 33.11 (Disruption to Payment Systems etc.) notwithstanding the Facility Agent’s
negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Facility Agent) in acting as Facility Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the Facility Agent has been reimbursed

payment that Lender makes to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

 105 

	(c)	 If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Facility Agent in accordance with paragraph
(b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Facility Agent may appoint a successor Facility Agent. 

  

	(d)	 If the Facility Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer
appropriate for it to remain as agent and the Facility Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Facility Agent under paragraph (c) above, the Facility Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to
persuade the proposed successor Facility Agent to become a party to this Agreement as Facility Agent) agree with the proposed successor Facility Agent amendments to this Clause 29 (The Facility Agent, the Arranger and the Reference
Banks) and any other term of this Agreement dealing with the rights or obligations of the Facility Agent consistent with then current market practice for the appointment and protection of corporate trustees together with any reasonable
amendments to the agency fee payable under this Agreement which are consistent with the successor Facility Agent’s normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the Parties. 

 

	(e)	 The retiring Facility Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Facility Agent such
documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Facility Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Facility Agent under the Finance Documents. The Borrowers shall, within three Business Days of
demand, reimburse the retiring Facility Agent for the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) properly incurred by it in making available such documents and records and providing such assistance. 

 

	(f)	 The Facility Agent’s resignation notice shall only take effect upon the appointment of a successor.

  

	(g)	 Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Facility Agent shall be discharged from any further
obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 14.4 (Indemnity to the Facility Agent) and this Clause 29
(The Facility Agent, the Arranger and the Reference Banks) and any other provisions of a Finance Document which are expressed to limit or exclude its liability (or to indemnify it) in acting as Facility Agent. Any fees for the
account of the retiring Facility Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date). Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such
successor had been an original Party. 

  

	(h)	 The Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Facility Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph
(b) above. In this event, the Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above but the cost referred to in paragraph (e) above shall be for the account of the Borrowers. 

 

	(i)	 The consent of the Borrowers (or any other Transaction Obligor) is not required for an assignment or transfer
of rights and/or obligations by the Facility Agent. 

  

	(j)	 The Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable,
shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) above) if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Facility Agent under
the Finance Documents, either: 

  

	 	(i)	 the Facility Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 12.7 (FATCA Information) and
a Lender reasonably believes that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; 

  

	 	(ii)	 the information supplied by the Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 12.7 (FATCA Information)
indicates that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or 

  
 106 

	 	(iii)	 the Facility Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have
ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; 

 and (in each case) a Lender reasonably
believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required if the Facility Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and that Lender, by notice to the Facility Agent, requires it to resign. 

 

	29.14	 Confidentiality 

 

	(a)	 In acting as Facility Agent for the Finance Parties, the Facility Agent shall be regarded as acting through its
agency division which shall be treated as a separate entity from any other of its divisions or departments. 

  

	(b)	 If information is received by a division or department of the Facility Agent other than the division or
department responsible for complying with the obligations assumed by it under the Finance Documents, that information may be treated as confidential to that division or department, and the Facility Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it nor
shall it be obliged to disclose such information to any Party. 

  

	(c)	 Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document to the contrary, neither the Facility Agent nor the
Arranger is obliged to disclose to any other person (i) any confidential information or (ii) any other information if the disclosure would, or might in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or a breach of a
fiduciary duty.

	(a)	 Subject to Clause 27.9 (Pro rata interest settlement), the Facility Agent may treat the

	 	(i)	 entitled to or liable for any payment due under any Finance Document on that day; and 

 

	 	(ii)	 entitled to receive and act upon any notice, request, document or communication or make any decision or
determination under any Finance Document made or delivered on that day, 

 unless it has received not less than five
Business Days’ prior notice from that Lender to the contrary in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
  

	(b)	 Each Finance Party shall supply the Facility Agent with any information that the Security Agent may reasonably
specify (through the Facility Agent) as being necessary or desirable to enable the Security Agent to perform its functions as Security Agent. Each Finance Party shall deal with the Security Agent exclusively through the Facility Agent and shall not
deal directly with the Security Agent. 

  

	(c)	 Any Lender may by notice to the Facility Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices,
communications, information and documents to be made or despatched to that Lender under the Finance Documents. Such notice shall contain the address, fax number and (where communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under
Clause 36.5 (Electronic communication) electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the transmission of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose
attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address (or such other information), department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 36.2
(Addresses) and sub-paragraph (ii) of paragraph (a) of Clause 36.5 (Electronic communication) and the Facility Agent shall be entitled to treat such person
as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender. 

  
 107 

	29.16	 Credit appraisal by the Finance Parties 

Without affecting the responsibility of any Transaction Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any
Transaction Document, each Finance Party confirms to the Facility Agent and the Arranger that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under, or in
connection with, any Transaction Document including but not limited to:

of its respective assets under, or in connection with, any Transaction Document, the Security Property, the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in
anticipation of, under or in connection with any Transaction Document or the Security Property; 

  

	(d)	 the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information provided by the Facility Agent, any Party or by any
other person under, or in connection with, any Transaction Document, the transactions contemplated by any Transaction Document or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection
with any Transaction Document; and

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

	29.19	 Reliance and engagement letters 

Each Creditor Party confirms that each of the Arranger and the Facility Agent has authority to accept on its behalf (and ratifies the
acceptance on its behalf of any letters or reports already accepted by the Arranger or the Facility Agent) the terms of any reliance letter or engagement letters or any reports or letters provided by accountants, auditors or providers of due

	(a)	 any sum to the Security Agent, any Receiver or any Delegate; and

	32	 SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES 

 

	32.1	 Payments to Finance Parties 

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

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

  

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

  

	(c)	 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the
Facility Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in
accordance with Clause 33.5 (Application of receipts; partial payments). 

  
 124 

	32.2	 Redistribution of payments 

The Facility Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Transaction Obligor and distribute it among the
Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the “Sharing Finance Parties”) in accordance with Clause 33.5 (Application of receipts; partial payments) towards the obligations of that Transaction
Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties. 
  

	32.3	 Recovering Finance Party’s rights 

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

 

	32.4	 Reversal of redistribution 

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

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

  

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

  

	32.5	 Exceptions 

  

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

 

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

  

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

 

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

	33.1	 Payments to the Facility Agent 

 

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

  

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

 

	33.2	 Distributions by the Facility Agent 

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

	33.3	 Distributions to a Transaction Obligor 

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

	33.4	 Clawback and pre-funding 

 

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

 

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

  
 126 

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

  

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

  

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

  

	33.5	 Application of receipts; partial payments 

 

	(a)	 If the Facility Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) receives a payment that is insufficient to
discharge all the amounts then due and payable by a Transaction Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Facility Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Transaction Obligor under the
Finance Documents in the following order: 

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	(b)	 The Facility Agent shall, if so directed by the Majority Lenders, vary, or instruct the Security Agent to vary
(as applicable) the order set out in sub-paragraphs (ii) to (iv) of paragraph (a) above.

deduction for) set-off or counterclaim. 
  

	33.7	 Business Days 

 

	(a)	 Any payment under the Finance Documents which is due to be made on a day that is not a Business Day shall be
made on the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not). 

  

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

  

	33.8	 Currency of account 

 

	(a)	 Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) below, dollars is the currency of account and payment for any sum due
from a Transaction Obligor under any Finance Document. 

  
 127 

	(b)	 Each payment in respect of costs, expenses or Taxes shall be made in the currency in which the costs, expenses
or Taxes are incurred. 

  

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

  

	33.9	 Change of currency 

 

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

  

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

 

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

 

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

  

	33.10	 Currency Conversion 

 

	(a)	 For the purpose of, or pending any payment to be made by any Servicing Party under any Finance Document, such
Servicing Party may convert any moneys received or recovered by it from one currency to another, at a market rate of exchange. 

  

	(b)	 The obligations of any Transaction Obligor to pay in the due currency shall only be satisfied to the extent of
the amount of the due currency purchased after deducting the costs of conversion. 

  

	33.11	 Disruption to Payment Systems etc. 

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

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

 

	(b)	 the Facility Agent shall not be obliged to consult with the Borrowers in relation to any changes mentioned in
paragraph (a) above if, in its opinion, it is not practicable to do so in the circumstances and, in any event, shall have no obligation to agree to such changes; 

 

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

  

	(d)	 any such changes agreed upon by the Facility Agent and the Borrowers shall (whether or not it is finally
determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties and any Transaction Obligors as an amendment to (or, as the case may be, waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 42
(Amendments and Waivers); 

  
 128 

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

by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to that Transaction 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. 

 

	35	 BAIL-IN 

Notwithstanding any other term of any Finance Document or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties to a Finance

	(c)	 Any such electronic communication as specified in paragraph (a) above made between any two Parties will be
effective only when actually received (or made available) in readable form and in the case of any electronic communication made by a Party to the Facility Agent or the Security Agent only if it is addressed in such a manner as the Facility Agent or
the Security Agent shall specify for this purpose. 

  

	(d)	 Any electronic communication which becomes effective, in accordance with paragraph (c) above, after 5.00
p.m. in the place in which the Party to whom the relevant communication is sent or made available has its address for the purpose of this Agreement shall be deemed only to become effective on the following day. 

 

	(e)	 Any reference in a Finance Document to a communication being sent or received shall be construed to include
that communication being made available in accordance with this Clause 36.5 (Electronic communication). 

  

	36.6	 English language 

 

	(a)	 Any notice given under or in connection with any Finance Document must be in English. 

 

	(b)	 All other documents provided under or in connection with any Finance Document must be: 

 

	 	(i)	 in English; or 

  

	 	(ii)	 if not in English, and if so required by the Facility Agent, accompanied by a certified English translation
prepared by a translator approved by the Facility Agent and, in this case, the English translation will prevail unless the document is a constitutional, statutory or other official document. 

 

	37	 CALCULATIONS AND CERTIFICATES 

 

	37.1	 Accounts 

In any litigation or arbitration proceedings arising out of or in connection with a Finance Document, the entries made in the accounts
maintained by a Finance Party are prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate. 
  

	37.2	 Certificates and determinations 

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

	37.3	 Day count convention 

Any interest, commission or fee accruing under a Finance Document will accrue from day to day and is calculated on the basis of the actual
number of days elapsed and a year of 360 days or, in any case where the practice in the Relevant Interbank Market differs, in accordance with that market practice. 
  

	38	 PARTIAL INVALIDITY 

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

  
 131 

	39	 REMEDIES AND WAIVERS 

No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Creditor Party, any right or remedy under a Finance Document shall
operate as a waiver of any such right or remedy or constitute an election to affirm any Finance Document. No election to affirm any Finance Document on the part of a Creditor Party shall be effective unless it is in writing. No single or partial
exercise of any right or remedy shall prevent any further or other exercise or the exercise of any other right or remedy. The rights and remedies provided in each Finance Document are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided
by law. 
  

	40	 SETTLEMENT OR DISCHARGE CONDITIONAL 

Any settlement or discharge under any Finance Document between any Finance Party and any Transaction Obligor shall be conditional upon no
security or payment to any Finance Party by any Transaction Obligor or any other person being set aside, adjusted or ordered to be repaid, whether under any insolvency law or otherwise. 

 

	41	 IRREVOCABLE PAYMENT 

If the Facility Agent considers that an amount paid or discharged by, or on behalf of, a Transaction Obligor or by any other person in
purported payment or discharge of an obligation of that Transaction Obligor to a Creditor Party under the Finance Documents is capable of being avoided or otherwise set aside on the liquidation or administration of that Transaction Obligor or
otherwise, then that amount shall not be considered to have been unconditionally and irrevocably paid or discharged for the purposes of the Finance Documents.

among the Finance Parties), Clause 46 (Governing Law) or Clause 47 (Enforcement); 

  

	(j)	 any release of, or material variation to, any Transaction Security, guarantee, indemnity or subordination

consent of all the Lenders.

 133 

	(b)	 If any Lender fails to respond to a request for an amendment or waiver described in paragraph (a) above within
5 Business Days (unless the Borrowers and the Facility Agent agree to a longer time period in relation to any request) of that request being made: 

  

	 	(i)	 its Commitment shall not be included for the purpose of calculating the Total Commitments when ascertaining
whether any relevant percentage of Total Commitments has been obtained to approve that request; and 

  

	 	(ii)	 its status as a Lender shall be disregarded for the purpose of ascertaining whether the agreement of any
specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve that request. 

  

	42.5	 Obligor Intent 

Without prejudice to the generality of Clauses 1.2 (Construction) and 17.2 (Waiver of defences) each
Obligor expressly confirms that it intends that any guarantee contained in this Agreement or any other Finance Document and any Security created by any Finance Document shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase,

This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed
by English law. 
  

	47	 ENFORCEMENT 

  

	47.1	 Jurisdiction 

  

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

  

	(b)	 The Obligors accept that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle
Disputes and accordingly no Obligor will argue to the contrary. 

  

	(c)	 This Clause 47.1 (Jurisdiction) is for the benefit of the Creditor Parties only. As a
result, no Creditor Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Creditor Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

  

	47.2	 Service of process 

 

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

Lane, London EC2V 8AE, England as its agent for service of process in relation to any proceedings before the English courts in connection with any Finance Document; and 

 

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

  

	(b)	 If any person appointed as an agent for service of process is unable for any reason to act as agent for service
of process, the Borrowers (on behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately (and in any event within 5 days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Facility Agent. Failing this, the Facility Agent may appoint
another agent for this purpose. 

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

Obligors from two Approved Valuers.
