	(d)	The Issue shall be made by private placing and shall not constitute an offer to the public as defined under Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 June 2017 on the prospectus to be published when securities are offered to the public or admitted to trading on a regulated market.

SECTION 3
 
REDEMPTION AND CONVERSION
 
	3	REDEMPTION
	 
	 

	3.1	Redemption - Maturity
	 
	 

	(a)	As from 31 December 2019 (included), the Bonds shall be redeemed annually on each Interest Payment Date, at an amount:

 
	 
	(i)	equal to minimum 5% of the Principal of all the Bonds subscribed on the Subscription Date (the “Minimum Annual Redemption Amount”); and
	 
	 
	 

	 
	(ii)	not exceeding 13% of the Principal of all the Bonds subscribed on the Subscription Date (the “Maximum Annual Redemption Amount”).

 
	(b)	It is specified that in the event a Maximum Annual Redemption Amount is not reimbursed any given year, the Issuer shall be allowed to reimburse, the following year, an amount equal to up to 13% of the Principal increased by the difference between 13% of the Principal and the amount actually redeemed the previous year.
	 
	 

	(c)	Unless previously redeemed, converted in accordance with clause 4 (Conversion) and cancelled as provided below, the Issuer shall redeem the Bonds in full, on the Maturity Date.

 
	3.2	Full Voluntary Redemption
	 
	 

	(a)	As from the date falling five (5) years after the Subscription Date, the Bonds may, at the option of the Issuer, be fully redeemed on an Interest Payment Date, at an amount equal to the then Outstanding Principal of the Bonds, subject to the payment of an early redemption penalty (the “Early Redemption Penalty”).
	 
	 

	(b)	the Early Redemption Penalty shall be calculated as follows:

 
	 
	(i)	the 5th year: penalty equals to twelve (12) months of Interests calculated on the basis of the Principal at the date of the Issue;
	 
	 
	 

	 
	(ii)	the 6th year: penalty equals to six (6) months of Interests calculated on the basis of the Principal at the date of the Issue; and
	 
	 
	 

	 
	(iii)	the 7th and 8th years: no penalty will be applied.

 
	3.3	Redemption at the option of Bondholders due to illegality
	 
	 

		If, in any applicable jurisdiction, it becomes unlawful for any Bondholder to hold the Bonds or it becomes unlawful for any Affiliate of a Bondholder for that Bondholder to do so for a reason not attributable to the Bondholder confirmed by a judgement:
	 
	 

	(a)	that Bondholder shall promptly notify the Issuer upon becoming aware of that event; and
	 
	 

	(b)	the Issuer shall redeem the Bonds held by that Bondholder on the date specified by the Bondholder in the notice delivered to the Issuer (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law) at a price equal to 100 per cent of their principal amount together with Interest accrued to such date.

 
	 
	24
	
 
	 

 
	(c)	the Bondholder and the Issuer shall in good faith negotiate in order to find an alternative structure of financing.
	 
	 

		It is therefore understood that if it becomes unlawful for any Bondholder to hold the Bonds or it becomes unlawful for any Affiliate of a Bondholder for that Bondholder to do so for a reason attributable to the Bondholder confirmed by a judgement, this Clause 3.3 (Redemption at the option of Bondholders due to illegality) does not apply.

 
	3.4	Mandatory redemption
	 
	 

	(a)	Change of control - Issuer
	 
	 

		Except in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c) of Clause 12.4 (Corporate reconstruction) if the Issuer is not or ceases to be directly or indirectly controlled by the Shareholder or a sale of all or substantially all assets of the Issuer (whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions) in each case without the prior written consent of the Bondholder occurs, the Bondholder is entitled to request to the Issuer the prepayment of the Principal of the Bonds and related interests in full within ten (10) Business Days of such demand.
	 
	 

	(b)	Change in shareholding of the Project Company
	 
	 

		If the share capital, voting rights or financial rights of the Project Company or the shareholder loan granted by the Issuer to the Project Company is not or cease to be 100% owned by the Issuer or a sale of all or substantially all assets of the Project Company (whether in a single transaction or a series of related transactions) in each case without the prior written consent of the Bondholder occurs, the Bondholder is entitled to request to the Issuer the prepayment of the Principal of the Bonds and related interests in full within ten (10) Business Days of such demand.
	 
	 

	3.5	Notice of early redemption
	 
	 

		Any notice of early redemption given by any Party under this Clause 3 (Redemption) shall be irrevocable and, unless a contrary indication appears in these Terms and Conditions, specify the date or dates upon which the relevant early redemption is to be made.
	 
	 

	3.6	Cancellation upon redemption
	 
	 

		Any Bonds redeemed in accordance with these Terms and Conditions will immediately be cancelled with the effect that the Bondholder has no further rights in respect of such cancelled Bonds (including, without limitation, any Conversion Right). Any cancellation of Bonds shall be reflected in the Register.
	 
	 

	4	CONVERSION
	 
	 

		Subject to and as provided in these Terms and Conditions, the Bondholder shall have the right to require the conversion of all of their Bonds into new shares of the Issuer credited as fully paid (a “Conversion Right”) at any time following the occurrence of an Event of Default which is not cured within the applicable cure period provided for in these Terms and Conditions, by sending a request for conversion (the “Conversion Request”) to the Issuer.

 
	 
	25
	
 
	 

 
		The percentage of the share capital of the Issuer to be held by the Bondholder upon exercise of the Conversion Right is referred to as the “Conversion Ratio”.
	 
	 

		The Conversion Ratio of the Bonds will be determined as follows:

 
	Year of conversion
	2019
	2020
	2021
	2022
	2023
	2024
	2025
	2026
	2027

	Conversion Ratio
	96%
	94%
	92%
	90%
	87%
	84%
	80%
	76%
	72%

  
At each conversion date, the number of shares to be newly created should be calculated through the following formula:
 
		Number of shares to be newly created = (Conversion Ratio * Initial Number)/(1-Conversion Ratio)

 
For purposes of this paragraph “Initial Number” means 100 shares in the capital of the Issuer.
 
	5	INTEREST
	 
	 

	5.1	Calculation of Interest
	 
	 

	(a)	The Bonds shall bear interest (the “Interest”) for each Interest Period at a percentage rate per annum (the “Base Interest Rate”) equal to 8% subject to and in accordance with the terms and provisions of Clause 5 (Interest).
	 
	 

	(b)	Interest shall be calculated on the basis of (i) the exact number of days elapsed during the relevant Interest Period (the last day being excluded) and by reference to a year of 365 (as the case may be) days (actual/actual) and (ii) the Principal from time to time (on a pro rata temporis basis) during the relevant Interest Period.

	26
	
 
	 

 
	(c)	Any Interest accrued which is due and payable but unpaid on its due date shall be compounded on an annual basis and shall be added to the Nominal Value of each relevant Bond.
	 
	 

	5.4	Non-Business Days
	 
	 

		if the Maturity Date does not fall on a date which is a Business Day, payments which should have been made on the Maturity Date shall be made in full on the immediately preceding Business Day.
	 
	 

	6	DEFAULT INTEREST
	 
	 

		If the Issuer fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue, to the fullest extent permitted by law, on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment), shall be compounded on an annual basis and shall be added to the Nominal Value of each relevant Bond.

	(c)	If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by or on behalf of an Issuer, the amount of the payment due from the Issuer 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 the Issuer is required to make a Tax Deduction, the Issuer 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 thirty (30) days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Issuer shall deliver the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Bondholder that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

	28
	
 
	 

 
	 
	 
	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Bondholder’s Participation Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

Nothing in this Clause 7.3 (Tax Credit) shall interfere with the right of the Bondholder to arrange its affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit, but any Bondholder shall undertake to claim relief from its corporate profits or similar Tax liability in respect of such Tax in order to apply such Tax Credit and disclose to the Issuer, at its request, any information relating to the Tax Credit.

	(b)	If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Bondholder (the “Supplier”) to any other Bondholder (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 such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT.

 
	 
	29
	
 
	 

 
	(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Bondholder for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Bondholder against all VAT incurred by the Bondholder in respect of the costs or expenses unless that Bondholder reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of VAT.
	 
	 

	8	MITIGATION BY THE BONDHOLDERS
	 
	 

	8.1	Mitigation
