the Facility at the relevant Utilisation Date. 
  

	3.2	Facility Offices 

  

	(a)	Each Lender will participate in each Advance through its Facility Office. If a Lender changes its Facility Office, that Lender will notify the Facility Agent and the Parent promptly

	3.3	Rights and obligations of Senior Finance Parties 

  

	(a)	The rights and obligations of the Senior Finance Parties under the Senior Finance Documents are several and any debt arising under the Senior Finance Documents shall be a separate
and independent debt. If a Senior Finance Party does not perform its obligations under any Senior Finance Document that shall not:

	 	(i)	each Obligor undertakes (such undertakings, the Parallel Obligations) to pay to the Security Agent amounts equal to all present and future amounts (the Original
Obligations) owing by it to a Senior Finance Party under any Senior Finance Document; 

  

 Page 33

	 	(iv)	notwithstanding paragraphs (ii) and (iii), payment by an Obligor of its Parallel Obligations shall to the same extent decrease and be a good discharge of the corresponding Original
Obligations owing to the relevant Senior Finance Parties and payment by an Obligor of its Original Obligations to the relevant Senior Finance Parties shall to the same extent decrease and be a good discharge of the Parallel Obligations owing by it
to the Security Agent (it being understood and agreed by all the parties that the operation of this paragraph (b) will not increase the total amount due under the Senior Finance Documents and will not result in any additional liability of any of the
Obligors under Clauses 10 (Taxes) and 11 (Funding issues) or otherwise prejudice the rights of the Obligors under or in relation to this Agreement); 

  

	 	(v)	the Parallel Obligations are owed to the Security Agent in its own name on behalf of itself and not as agent or representative of any other person nor as trustee and the Parallel
Debt Security shall secure the Parallel Obligations so owing; 

  

	 	(vi)	without limiting or affecting the Security Agent’s right to protect, preserve or enforce its rights under any Security Document, the Security Agent undertakes to each Senior
Finance Party not to exercise its rights in respect of the Parallel Obligations without the consent of the relevant Senior Finance Party; and 

  

	 	(vii)	the Security Agent undertakes to pay to the Facility Agent any amount collected or received by it in payment or partial payment of the Parallel Obligations and the Facility Agent
shall distribute any amount so received to the Senior Finance Parties in accordance with the terms of the Senior Finance Documents as if such amounts had been received in respect of the Original Obligations.

the Facility during the Extension Period; and

amount referred to in paragraph (a) (the Transfer Amount): 

  

	 	(i)	the relevant pro rata amount to be repaid in respect of such Luxco Borrower Advance shall be reduced by the amount (if any) (the Reduction Amount) by which the

	 	(i)	the relevant pro rata amount to be prepaid in respect of such Luxco Borrower Advance shall be reduced by the amount (if any) (the Reduction Amount) by which

  

 Page 43 

 the Transfer Amount exceeds the amount which the German Borrower would be permitted to lend at such time
to the Luxco Borrower under section 30 of the German Limited Liability Company Act (Gesetz betreffend die Gesellschaften mit beschränkter Haftung); and 
  

	 	(ii)	the relevant pro rata amount to be prepaid in respect of the German Borrower Advances (if any) (the German Borrower Pro Rata Amount) shall be increased by an amount
equal to the lower of: 

  

	 	(A)	the Reduction Amount; and 

  

	 	(B)	the aggregate German Borrower Advances outstanding at such time less the German Borrower Pro Rata Amount. 

  

	(e)	Prepayments made under Clause 7.3 (Mandatory prepayment from receipts) in respect of proceeds received:

	 	(iii)	any Lender notifies the Facility Agent of its Additional Cost Rate under paragraph 3 of Schedule 5 (Mandatory Cost Formula), 

  
 the Luxco Borrower (on behalf of itself and the German Borrower) may, whilst
(in the case of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above) the circumstance giving rise to the requirement or indemnification continues or (in the case of paragraph (iii) above) that Additional Cost Rate is greater than zero, give the Facility Agent notice of
cancellation of the Commitment of that Lender and its intention to procure the repayment of that Lender’s participation in the Advances. 
  

	(b)	On receipt of a notice referred to in paragraph (a), the Commitment of that Lender shall immediately be reduced to zero. 

  

	(c)	On the last day of each Interest Period which ends after the Luxco Borrower has given notice under paragraph (a) above (or, if earlier, the date specified by the Luxco Borrower in
that notice), each Borrower shall repay that Lender’s participation in the Advances made to it.

	(a)	the Margin; and

	(c)	the Mandatory Cost. 

  

	8.3	Notification of Interest Periods and rates

unpaid sum from its due date to the date of actual payment (before and after judgment) at a rate determined by the Facility Agent to be one per cent. per annum above: 
  

	(a)	for an unpaid sum which is principal falling due before expiry of the relevant Interest Period, the rate applicable to that principal immediately before the date it so fell due (but
only for the period from that due date to the end of the relevant Interest Period); or 

  

 Page 45 

	(b)	for any other sum (including principal after an applicable Interest Period has expired), the rate which would be payable if the unpaid sum was an Advance made for a period equal to
the period of non-payment divided into successive Interest Periods of durations selected by the Facility Agent. 

  
 Default interest shall be compounded to principal at the end of each period by reference to which its rate is calculated but shall remain immediately due and payable.

  

	8.6	Margin adjustment 

  

	(a)	Subject to the terms of this Clause 8.6, the Margin in relation to each Advance shall be the rate specified for the Facility in Clause 1.1 (Definitions).

  

	(b)	Subject to paragraphs (c) to (f), if the ratio of Total Net Rental Income to Finance Costs for: 

  

	 	(i)	each of the previous three consecutive months as set out in the relevant Drawdown Reports was greater than 1.75:1; and 

  

	 	(ii)	each of the next three consecutive months is projected by the Parent (based on calculations and certifications of the Parent in form and substance satisfactory to the Facility Agent
acting reasonably) to be greater than 1.75:1, 

  
 the Margin shall be 1.50 per cent. per annum. 
  

	(c)	The Margin specified in paragraph (b) shall not apply before the Facility Agent receives the Drawdown Reports, calculations and certifications referred to in that paragraph.

  

	(d)	Subject to paragraph (c) the Margin specified in paragraph (b) shall apply with effect from the next Interest Payment Date following the date of delivery of the most recent Drawdown
Report referred to in paragraph (b)(i). 

  

	(e)	If at any time the ratio of Total Net Rental Income to Finance Costs for either: 

  

	 	(i)	each of the previous three consecutive months; or 

  

	 	(ii)	any three out of each of the previous six consecutive months, 

  
 as set out in the relevant Drawdown Reports was equal to or less than 1.75:1, the Margin shall, with effect from the next Interest Payment Date following
the date of delivery of the most recent relevant Drawdown Report, revert to the ratio specified in Clause 1.1 (Definitions) unless and until the conditions specified in paragraph (b) are satisfied. 
  

	(f)	If an Event of Default occurs and while it is continuing the Margin shall immediately revert to the rate specified in Clause 1.1 (Definitions) until no Event of Default is
continuing, in which case the Margin shall then be determined in accordance with paragraph (b). 

  

	8.7	Adjustment inaccuracy 

  
 If any verification or investigations carried out under Clause 15.5(k) (Investigations) demonstrate that the Margin: 
  

	(a)	should have been varied in accordance with Clause 8.6 (Margin adjustment) when it has not been; or 

  

	(b)	should not have been varied in accordance with Clause 8.6 (Margin adjustment) when it has been, 

  

 Page 46 

 in either case by reason of an inaccuracy in the relevant information previously provided, each Borrower shall
immediately pay any unpaid amounts which would have been payable by it if the Margin had been calculated by reference to the circumstances demonstrated by such verification or investigation. 
  

	8.8	Break Costs 

  

	(a)	Each Borrower shall, within three Business Days of demand by a Senior Finance Party, pay to that Senior Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of an Advance

treated as resident for tax purposes; or 

  

	 	(B)	under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Senior 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 Senior Finance Party; or 
  

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

  

	 	(A)	is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 10.2 (Tax gross-up); or 

  

	 	(B)	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 10.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in paragraph (d) of

of the VAT. 

  

	(b)	Where a Senior Finance Document requires any party to reimburse a Senior Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Senior
Finance Party against all VAT incurred by the Senior Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Senior Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment of the VAT or where any such cost
or expense constitutes a disbursement incurred by the Senior Finance Party as agent on behalf of the party, such party shall pay to the Senior Finance Party the VAT actually charged thereon.

 If at any time it is or will become unlawful for any Senior Finance Party to allow all or part of its Commitments to remain outstanding and/or to make, fund or allow to remain outstanding all or part of 
  

 Page 50 

 its share of any Advance and/or to carry out all or any of its other obligations under this Agreement, that Senior
Finance Party shall notify the Facility Agent and the Parent. Upon that notification: 
  

	(a)	that Senior Finance Party’s Commitments shall be cancelled; and 

  

	(b)	the Borrowers shall prepay that Senior Finance Party’s portion of each Advance immediately or on such later date as that Senior Finance Party certifies is necessary to comply
with the relevant law together with interest and any other sum accrued to that Senior Finance Party under this Agreement. 

  

	11.2	Increased costs 

  

	(a)	If, as a result of the introduction of or any change in, or in the interpretation or application or administration of, any law or regulation (whether or not having the force of law
but, if not having the force of law, compliance with which is customary by banks in the relevant jurisdiction) of any agency of any state including any law or regulation relating to taxation, reserve asset, special deposit, cash ratio, liquidity or
capital adequacy requirements or other forms of banking, fiscal, monetary, or regulatory controls: 

  

	 	(i)	the cost to a Senior Finance Party of maintaining all or any part of its Commitments and/or of making, maintaining or funding all or any part of its share of any Advance or overdue
sum is increased; and/or 

  

	 	(ii)	any sum received or receivable by a Senior Finance Party under the Senior Finance Documents or the effective return to it under the Senior Finance Documents is reduced; and/or

  

	 	(iii)	a Senior Finance Party makes any payment or forgoes any interest or other return on or calculated by reference to the amount of any sum received or receivable by it under the Senior
Finance Documents, 

  
 the Obligors shall indemnify
that Senior Finance Party against that increased cost, reduction, payment or forgone interest or other return and, accordingly, shall on demand (whenever made) pay to or to the Facility Agent for the account of that Senior Finance Party the amount
reasonably certified by it to be necessary so to indemnify it. 
  

	(b)	Paragraph (a) does not apply to any increased cost, reduction, payment or forgone interest or other return to the extent: 

  

	 	(i)	compensated for by payment of the Mandatory Cost; 

  

	 	(ii)	attributable to a change in the tax on the overall net income of that Senior Finance Party or compensated for under Clause 10 (Taxes) or which would have been so compensated
but for the operation of Clause 10 (Taxes); or 

  

	 	(iii)	resulting from a failure by that Senior Finance Party to comply with any request from or requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not
having the force of law). 

  

	(c)	To the extent that any affiliate of any Senior Finance Party suffers a cost which would have been recoverable by that Senior Finance Party under this Clause had that cost been
imposed on it, that Senior Finance Party shall be entitled to recover that amount. 

  

	(d)	A Senior Finance Party intending to make a claim under this Clause will (on behalf of itself or, where relevant, on behalf of its affiliate) promptly notify the Facility Agent of
the event by reason of which it or its affiliate is entitled to do so, whereupon the Facility Agent will promptly make demand on the Obligors in accordance with this Clause. 

  

 Page 51 

	(e)	Nothing in this Clause will require any Senior Finance Party or any affiliate to disclose any information which it regards as confidential or commercially sensitive.

  

	11.3	Mitigation 

  
 If circumstances arise which result or would result in any amount becoming payable or cancelled under any of Clause 10 (Taxes), Clause 11.1 (Illegality) or Clause 11.2 (Increased costs) then,
without in any way limiting the obligations of the Obligors under those Clauses, the affected Senior Finance Party shall, promptly upon becoming aware of those circumstances, notify the Facility Agent and endeavour, in consultation with the Facility
Agent and the relevant Obligor, to take such reasonable steps as it determines may be open to it to mitigate the effects of such circumstances, unless and to the extent to do so might, in the opinion of that Senior Finance Party (acting reasonably),
be prejudicial to it. 
  

	11.4	Market disruption 

  
 If in relation to an Interest Period: 
  

	(a)	at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and not all of the Reference Bank supplies a quotation in accordance with the
definition of EURIBOR; or 

  

	(b)	the Facility Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for determining or ascertaining EURIBOR, 

  
 the interest payable on the Advance(s) to which that Interest Period relates shall be a
percentage rate per annum determined by the Facility Agent (in consultation with the Lenders) to reflect the cost to each Lender of funding its participation in the Advance(s) from whatever sources it may select plus the Margin and the Mandatory
Cost. 
  

	12.	PAYMENTS 

  

	12.1	Payments to the Facility Agent 

  
 A party (other than the Facility Agent) required to make a payment under a Senior Finance Document shall make it available to the Facility Agent (unless a contrary
indication appears in a Senior 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.

  

	12.2	Distributions by the Facility Agent 

  
 Each payment received by the Facility Agent under the Senior Finance Documents for another person shall, subject to Clause 12.4 (Refunding of payments), be made
available by the Facility Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to that person (in the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office). 
  

	12.3	Place 

  
 Where a Senior Finance Document specifies that a payment is to be made to an account that payment shall be made to the account at an office or bank in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or
London notified to the payer by not less than five Business Days notice. 
  

 Page 52 

	12.4	Refunding of payments 

  
 The Facility Agent may but shall not be obliged to make available to any person any amount which it is expecting to receive for the account of that person before it has
been able to establish that it has received that amount. If and to the extent that the Facility Agent does so but it proves to be the case that the Facility Agent has not actually received that amount: 
  

	(a)	the person to whom the Facility Agent made that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) available shall on request refund it to the Facility Agent; and

  

	(b)	the person by whom that amount should have been made available or, if that person fails to do so the person to whom that amount should have been made available, shall on request pay
to the Facility Agent the amount (as certified by the Facility Agent) which will indemnify the Facility Agent against any funding or other cost, loss, expense or liability sustained or incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before
receiving it. 

  

	12.5	Non-Business Days 

  

	(a)	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)	Any payment which is due to be made on a date 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). 

  

	(c)	During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal amount under this Agreement interest is payable on that principal amount at the rate payable on the original due
date. 

  

	12.6	Currency of account 

  
 Unless a Senior Finance Document expressly provides otherwise: 
  

	(a)	a repayment or prepayment of any principal amount; 

  

	(b)	interest; 

  

	(c)	amounts in respect of costs, expenses, losses, liabilities or Taxes; and 

  

	(d)	amounts not referred to in paragraphs (a) to (c),

from that in which it is expressed to be payable. 
  

	12.7	Change in currency 

  

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

  

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

  

 Page 53 

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

  

	(b)	If a change in any currency of any country occurs, this Agreement will be amended to the extent the Facility Agent, in good faith, determines to be necessary to reflect the change
in currency or any financial market practices relating to dealing in the new currency and to put the Lenders in the same position, so far as is possible, that they would have been in if no change in currency had occurred. 

 

	13.	GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY 

  
 In this Clause the Intercompany Loan Security Assignment means the Security Document referred to in paragraph (a) (Asset Security) of Schedule 8.

  

	13.1	Guarantee and indemnity 

  
 Each Guarantor (jointly and severally) irrevocably and unconditionally: 
  

	(a)	guarantees to each Senior Finance Party punctual performance by each Obligor of all that Obligor’s obligations under the Senior Finance Documents; 

  

	(b)	undertakes with each Senior Finance Party that whenever an Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Senior Finance Document that Guarantor shall
immediately on demand pay that amount as if it were the principal obligor; and 

  

	(c)	indemnifies each Senior Finance Party immediately on demand against all losses, damages, costs and expenses incurred by such Senior Finance Party arising as a result of any
obligation of any Obligor under the Senior Finance Documents being or becoming unenforceable, invalid or illegal. 

  

	13.2	Continuing guarantee 

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

	13.3	Reinstatement 

  
 If any discharge or arrangement is made (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) in whole or in part on the faith of any payment, security or other
disposition which (in any case) is avoided or reduced or must be restored on insolvency, liquidation or otherwise is avoided or reduced as a result of insolvency or any similar event: 
  

	(a)	the liability of each Obligor shall continue as if the discharge or arrangement had not occurred; and 

  

	(b)	each Senior Finance Party shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that payment, security or other disposition, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance, reduction or
restoration had not occurred. 

  

 Page 54

	 	(v)	require the issue of Mezzanine Bonds pursuant to the Subscription Agreement to be used to repay or prepay the Advances and any other sum then due and payable under this Agreement;
and/or 

  

	 	(vi)	to the extent permitted by applicable law, draw down funds standing to the credit of any Control Account to be used to repay or prepay the Advances and any other sum then due and
payable under this Agreement ; and/or 

  

	 	(vii)	where relevant, act pursuant to the Obligors Power of Attorney. 

  

	19.	ADMINISTRATIVE PARTIES 

  

	19.1	Authorisation of Agents 

  

	(a)	Each Senior Finance Party (other than the relevant Agent) irrevocably appoints each Agent to act as its agent under the Senior Finance Documents. 

  

	(b)	Each Senior Finance Party irrevocably authorises each Agent to: 

  

	 	(i)	perform the duties and to exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically given to it under the Senior Finance Documents, together with any other incidental
rights, powers and discretions; and 

  

	 	(ii)	execute each Senior Finance Document expressed to be executed by the relevant Agent on its behalf. 

  

	(c)	The Agents have only those duties which are expressly specified in the Senior Finance Documents. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature.

  

	19.2	Role of the Arranger 

  
 Except as specifically provided in the Senior Finance Documents, the Arranger has no obligations or liabilities of any kind to any other party in connection with any Senior Finance Document. 
  

	19.3	No fiduciary duties 

  
 Nothing in the Senior Finance Documents makes an Administrative Party a trustee or fiduciary for any other party or any other person, except for the Security Agent in relation to the Security Documents. No
Administrative Party need hold in trust any moneys paid to it for a party or be liable to account for interest on those moneys, save as expressly provided for in the Senior Finance Documents. 
  

 Page 109 

	19.4	Separate rights 

  

	(a)	If it is also a Lender, each Administrative Party has the same rights and powers under the Senior Finance Documents as any other Lender and may exercise those rights and powers as
though it were not an Administrative Party. 

  

	(b)	Each Administrative Party may: 

  

	 	(i)	carry on any business with any Obligor or its related entities (including acting as an agent or a trustee for any other financing); and 

  

	 	(ii)	retain any profits or remuneration it receives under the Senior Finance Documents or in relation to any other business it carries on with any Obligor or its related entities.

  

	19.5	Reliance 

  
 Each Agent may: 
  

	(a)	rely on any notice or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by, or with the authority of, the proper person; 

  

	(b)	rely on any statement made by any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify; 

  

	(c)	engage, pay for and rely on professional advisers selected by it (including those representing a party other than that Agent); and 

  

	(d)	act under the Senior Finance Documents through its personnel and agents. 

  

	19.6	Majority Lenders’ instructions 

  

	(a)	Unless a contrary indication appears in a Senior Finance Document, each Agent shall exercise any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Agent in accordance with any
instructions given to it by the Majority Lenders (or, if so instructed by the Majority Lenders, refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Agent) and shall not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts (or
refrains from taking any action) in accordance with an instruction of the Majority Lenders. 

  

	(b)	Neither Agent is authorised to act on behalf of a Lender (without first obtaining that Lender’s consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings in connection with any Senior
Finance Document. 

  

	(c)	An Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders (or the Lenders) until it has received security satisfactory to it, whether by way of
payment in advance or otherwise, against any liability or loss which it may incur in complying with those instructions. 

  

	19.7	Responsibility 

  

	(a)	No Administrative Party is responsible to any other Senior Finance Party for the adequacy, validity, enforceability, accuracy, completeness or performance of:

  

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

  

 Page 110 

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

  

	(b)	Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Senior Finance Document, each Lender confirms that it:

  

	 	(i)	has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of all risks arising under or in connection with the Senior Finance Documents (including the financial condition
and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities and the nature and extent of any recourse against any party or its assets); and 

  

	 	(ii)	has not relied on any information provided to it by any Administrative Party in connection with any Senior Finance Document. 

  

	19.8	Exclusion of liability 

  

	(a)	Neither Agent is liable to any other Senior Finance Party for any action taken or not taken by it in connection with any Senior Finance Document, unless directly caused by its gross
negligence or wilful misconduct. 

  

	(b)	No party (other than the Agent concerned) may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of an Agent in respect of any claim it might have against that Agent or in
respect of any act or omission of any kind by that officer, employee or agent in connection with any Senior Finance Document. Any officer, employee or agent of an Agent may rely on this provision. 

  

	19.9	Default 

  

	(a)	Neither Agent is obliged to monitor or enquire whether a Default has occurred. Neither Agent is deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default unless it has received notice
from a Party describing such Default and specifying that it is a Default. 

  

	(b)	If an Agent: 

  

	 	(i)	receives notice from a Party referring to this Agreement, describing a Default and stating that the event is a Default; or 

  

	 	(ii)	is aware of the non-payment of any principal or interest or any fee payable to a Senior Finance Party (other than the Agent or the Arranger) under this Agreement,

  
 it shall promptly notify the other Senior
Finance Parties. 
  

	19.10	 Information 

  

	(a)	The Facility Agent shall promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to the Facility Agent by a party for that person.

  

	(b)	Except where a Senior Finance Document specifically provides otherwise, neither Agent is obliged to review or check the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any document it
forwards to another party. 

  

	(c)	Except as provided above, neither Agent has any duty: 

  

	 	(i)	either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the risks arising under or in connection with the Senior Finance
Documents (including any information relating to the financial condition or 

  

 Page 111 

 affairs of any Obligor or its related entities or the nature or extent of recourse against any party or
its assets) whether coming into its possession before, on or after the date of this Agreement; or 
  

	 	(ii)	unless specifically requested to do so by a Lender in accordance with a Senior Finance Document, to request any certificate or other document from any Obligor.

  

	(d)	In acting as an Agent, the agency division of each Agent is treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired by an Agent which, in its
opinion, is acquired by it otherwise than in its capacity as an Agent may be treated as confidential by the Agent and will not be treated as information possessed by the Agent in that capacity. 

  

	(e)	Each Obligor irrevocably authorises each Agent to disclose to the other Senior Finance Parties any information which, in the Agent’s opinion, is received by it in its capacity
as an Agent. 

  

	(f)	Where this Agreement specifies a minimum period of notice to be given to the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent may, at its discretion, accept a shorter notice period.

  

	19.11	 Indemnities to Agents 

  

	(a)	Without limiting the liability of any Obligor under the Senior Finance Documents, each Lender shall indemnify each Agent (in proportion to its share of the total Commitments or, if
the total Commitments are then zero, to its share of the total Commitments immediately before their reduction to zero) against any loss or liability incurred by such Agent in acting as an Agent, except to the extent that the loss or liability is
caused by the Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct. 

  

	(b)	Each Agent may deduct from any amount received by it for a Lender any amount due to the Agent from that Lender under a Senior Finance Document but unpaid. 

 

	(c)	The Obligors shall promptly reimburse each Lender for any payment made or loss suffered by such Lender under this Clause 19.11. 

  

	19.12	 Compliance 

  
 Each Agent may refrain from doing anything (including disclosing any information) which might, in its opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may
do anything which, in its opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation. 
  

	19.13	 Resignation 

  

	(a)	Each Agent may resign and appoint any of its affiliates as a successor Agent by giving not less than 30 days notice to the Lenders and the Parent. 

  

	(b)	Alternatively, each Agent may resign by giving not less than 30 days notice to the Lenders and the Parent, in which case the Majority Lenders may appoint a successor Agent with the
consent of the Parent (acting reasonably). 

  

	(c)	If no successor Agent has been appointed under paragraph (b) within 30 days after notice of resignation was given, the Agent may appoint with the consent of the Parent (acting
reasonably) a successor Agent (acting through an office in the United Kingdom). 

  

 Page 112 

	(d)	The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request
for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent under the Senior Finance Documents. 

  

	(e)	The resignation of an Agent and the appointment of any successor Agent will both become effective only when: 

  

	 	(i)	the successor Agent notifies all the parties that it accepts its appointment; and 

  

	 	(ii)	in the case of the Security Agent, the Facility Agent confirms that it is satisfied that the Security Documents (and any related documentation) have been, to the extent necessary,
transferred to or into (and where required registered in) the name of the proposed successor Security Agent. 

  
 On the conditions to appointment being satisfied, the successor Agent will succeed to the position of the Agent and the term Facility Agent
or Security Agent as applicable will mean the successor Agent. 
  

	(f)	Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause 19 will continue to benefit the retiring Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Senior
Finance Documents while it was an Agent, and, subject to paragraph (d), it will have no further obligations as Agent under any Senior Finance Document. 

  

	(g)	The Majority Lenders may, by notice to an Agent, require it to resign under paragraph (b). 

  

	(h)	The Obligors will (at the cost of the Lenders) take such action and execute such documents as is required by the Security Agent so that the Security Documents provide for effective
and perfected security in favour of any successor Security Agent. 

  

	(i)	No Obligor will incur any additional liability under this Agreement to the Agents in excess of the amount such Obligor would have been obliged to pay if the successor Agent had not
been so appointed unless: 

  

	 	(i)	after the date on which the successor Agent is appointed, there is any change in, or in the interpretation or application of, any relevant law or the practice giving rise to any
such liability; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the relevant Obligor would incur such liability irrespective of whether or not a successor Agent had been appointed. 

  

	19.14	 Relationship with Lenders 

  

	(a)	Each Agent may treat each Lender as a Lender, entitled to payments under this Agreement and as acting through its Facility Office(s) until it has received not less than five
Business Days prior notice from that Lender to the contrary. 

  

	(b)	The Facility Agent may at any time, and shall if requested to do so by the Majority Lenders, convene a meeting of the Lenders. 

  

	(c)	The Facility Agent shall keep a register of all the parties and supply any other party with a copy of the register on request. The register will include each Lender’s Facility
Office(s) and contact details for the purposes of this Agreement. 

  

 Page 113 

	19.15	 Facility Agent’s management time 

  
 Any amount payable to the Facility Agent under Clauses 26 (Indemnities) and 19.11 (Indemnities to Agents) shall include the cost of utilising the Facility
Agent’s reasonable management time or other resources incurred in connection with a Default and which will be calculated on the basis of such reasonable daily or hourly rate as the Facility Agent may notify to the Parent and the Lenders, and is
in addition to any fee paid or payable to the Facility Agent under any Fees Letter. 
  

	19.16	 Reliance and engagement letters 

  
 Each Senior Finance Party confirms that each of the Arranger and the Facility Agent has authority to accept on its behalf the terms of any reliance letter or engagement
letter relating to the Report or any reports or letters provided by accountants in connection with the Senior Finance Documents or the transactions contemplated in the Senior Finance Documents and to bind it in respect of the Report or such reports
and letters and to sign such letters on its behalf and further confirms that it accepts the terms and qualifications set out in such letters. 
  

	19.17	 Change of office of Agents 

  
 Each Agent may at any time and in its sole discretion by written notice of not less than 30 days to the Parent and each of the other Senior Finance Parties designate a
different office in Paris from which its duties as an Agent will be performed. 
  

	19.18	 Role of Security Agent 

  
 Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, the Security Agent shall hold the benefit of the Security Documents to which it is party as agent and security trustee for
itself and the Senior Finance Parties, shall apply all payments and other benefits received by it by reason thereof, or otherwise realised thereunder and shall have the rights, remedies and exonerations, in each case as provided in the Intercreditor
Deed. 
  

	19.19	 Release of security 

  
 If a Group Member disposes of an asset where that disposal is permitted by the terms of the Senior Finance Documents or is otherwise consented to pursuant to the terms of
the Senior Finance Documents then the Facility Agent shall promptly (and is hereby authorised by the Senior Finance Parties to) execute and instruct the Security Agent to execute such documents effecting the release of that asset from the security
under the Security Documents as are required to allow the disposal to take place. 
  

	20.	POWER OF ATTORNEY 

  

	20.1	The Security Agent as attorney for the Senior Finance Parties 

  

	(a)	Each Senior Finance Party appoints the Security Agent as its attorney with a view to the signing of any Security Document either governed by Belgian, Danish, Swedish or French law
or entered into by an Obligor incorporated in Belgium, Denmark, Sweden or France, with full power on its behalf and in its name: 

  

	 	(i)	to do all acts and things and agree the terms of and execute all documents which the Security Agent may consider necessary or useful for the purposes of executing, registering and
administering any such Security Document, enforcing and renewing such power if and when needed and waiving or releasing any right acquired by any Senior Finance Party hereunder; and 

  

 Page 114 

	 	(ii)	generally to take any action in any manner whatsoever related to any such Security Document. 

  

	(b)	Each Senior Finance Party undertakes, if so requested by the Security Agent, to ratify or confirm any act of the Security Agent performed in accordance with paragraph (a) and/or to
grant any specific and supplementary power of attorney, especially (but without limitation) with respect to the enforcement of any Security Document either governed by Belgian, Danish, Swedish or French law or entered into by an Obligor incorporated
in Belgium, Denmark, Sweden or France. 

  

	21.	CHANGES TO PARTIES 

  

	21.1	Assignments and transfers by Obligors 

  
 No Obligor shall be entitled to assign or transfer all or any of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder. 
  

	21.2	Assignments and transfers by Lenders 

  
 Any Lender (Existing Lender) may assign all or any of its rights and benefits under the Senior Finance Documents or transfer in accordance with Clause 21.4
(Transfer mechanism) all or any of its rights, benefits and obligations under the Senior Finance Documents to any regulated bank or financial institution (New Lender): 
  

	(a)	such assignment or transfer shall be in a minimum amount of €10,000,000 except in the case of an assignment or transfer which has the effect of reducing the participation of
the Existing Lender in the Facility to zero; and 

  

	(b)	the New Lender has entered into an accession agreement to the Intercreditor Deed. 

  

	21.3	Assignments by Lenders 

  
 If any Lender assigns all or any of its rights and benefits hereunder in accordance with Clause 21.2 (Assignments and transfers by Lenders), then, unless and until
the assignee has delivered a notice to the Facility Agent confirming in favour of the Facility Agent and the other Senior Finance Parties that it shall be under the same obligations towards each of them as it would have been under if it had been an
original party hereto as a Lender, the Facility Agent and the other Senior Finance Parties shall not be obliged to recognise such assignee as having the rights against each of them which it would have had if it had been such a party hereto.

  

	21.4	Transfer mechanism 

  
 If any Lender wishes to transfer by novation all or any of its rights, benefits and/or obligations as contemplated in Clause 21.2 (Assignments and transfers by Lenders), then such transfer shall be effected if
the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed and executed Transfer Certificate delivered to it. The Facility Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face
to comply and being delivered in accordance with this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate. On the Transfer Date: 
  

	(a)	to the extent that in such Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Senior Finance Documents, each of the Obligors
and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another hereunder and their respective rights against one another shall be cancelled (being discharged rights and obligations); 

  

 Page 115 

	(b)	each Obligor 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 Obligor and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the Obligor and the Existing Lender; 

  

	(c)	the Facility Agent, the New Lender and the other Senior Finance Parties shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired
and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights, benefits and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of such transfer and to that extent the Facility Agent and the Existing Lender shall each be released from
further obligations to each other hereunder; and 

  

	(d)	the New Lender shall become a party hereto as a Lender. 

  
 For the purposes of Article 1278 of the Belgian Civil Code and Article 1271 of the French Civil Code, each Obligor and the Lenders agree that, upon any transfer in whole
or in part of any rights of an Existing Lender to a New Lender by way of novation, the Security Interests created by the Security Documents will be preserved for the benefit of the New Lender and the Security Agent. 
  

	21.5	Assignment and transfer fees 

  
 On the date upon which an assignment takes effect in accordance with Clause 21.3 (Assignments by Lenders) or a transfer takes effect in accordance with Clause 21.4
(Transfer mechanism) the relevant New Lender shall pay to the Facility Agent for its own account a fee of €1,000. 
  

	21.6	Disclosure of information 

  
 Notwithstanding Clause 24.2 (Confidentiality), any Lender may disclose to its affiliates or any person: 
  

	(a)	to (or through) whom such Lender assigns or transfers (or may potentially assign or transfer) all or any of its rights, benefits and obligations hereunder; or

  

	(b)	with (or through) whom such Lender enters into (or may potentially enter into) any sub-participation in relation to, or any other transaction under which payments are to be made by
reference to, the Senior Finance Documents or any Obligor, 

  
 such
information about any Group Member or the Senior Finance Documents as such Lender shall consider appropriate, provided that the person to whom such information is to be given has entered into a Confidentiality Undertaking. 
  

	21.7	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 Senior Finance Documents or any other documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	the financial condition of any Obligor; 

  

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

  

	 	(iv)	the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Senior Finance Document or any other document, 

  

 Page 116 

 and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded. 
  

	(b)	Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Senior Finance 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 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 in connection with any Senior Finance Document; and 

  

	 	(ii)	will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Senior
Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force. 

  

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

  

	 	(i)	accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 20; or 

  

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

  

	21.8	Increased costs on change of Lender or Facility Office 

  
 If a Lender assigns or transfers any portion of the Facility or changes its Facility Office and, as a result of circumstances existing at the time of the assignment,
transfer or change, an Obligor would be obliged to pay an amount under Clause 10 (Taxes) or Clause 11.2 (Increased costs), that Obligor need only pay such amount to the extent it would have been obliged if that assignment, transfer or
change had not occurred. 
  

	21.9	Additional Guarantors 

  

	(a)	The Parent may, at any time if a Default is not continuing, request all the Lenders to consent to a special purpose body corporate becoming a wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Parent
(or, in the case of any such body corporate incorporated in Germany, a Subsidiary that is directly owned by the Parent as to 94.8 per cent. of its registered share capital) and acceding as a Guarantor under this Agreement. 

 

	(b)	Any such consent may only be given by all the Lenders in their absolute discretion upon such conditions as they may specify (including in relation to the granting of Security
Interests in favour of the Lenders). 

  

	(c)	If consent is given in accordance with paragraph (b) and following satisfaction of any conditions specified in relation to such consent, the Parent will: 

 

	 	(i)	constitute that body corporate as its wholly-owned Subsidiary; and 

  

	 	(ii)	procure that such body corporate delivers to the Facility Agent a duly executed Accession Document immediately after that body corporate becomes a Group Member.

  

	(d)	The Facility Agent shall execute that Accession Document if: 

  

	 	(i)	all the Lenders have given consent in accordance with paragraph (b) and all conditions specified in relation to such consent have been met; 

  

 Page 117 

	 	(ii)	no Default is continuing or would result from the additional Guarantor acceding as a party to this Agreement; and 

  

	 	(iii)	the additional Guarantor has duly acceded to the Intercreditor Deed. 

  

	(e)	The relevant wholly-owned Subsidiary will become a Guarantor with effect from the date of the relevant Accession Document. 

  

	21.10	 Notification 

  
 The Facility Agent will notify: 
  

	(a)	the Luxco Borrower (on behalf of itself and the German Borrower) within 14 Business Days of the date upon which an assignment takes effect pursuant to Clause 21.3 (Assignment by
the Lenders); and 

  

	(b)	the Lenders within 14 Business Days of the date upon which an additional Guarantor accedes to this Agreement pursuant to Clause 21.9 (Additional Guarantors).

  

	21.11	 Release of Guarantors 

  
 If all the shares in a Guarantor are disposed of pursuant to the enforcement of any Security Document and as a result the Guarantor ceases to be a Group Member, the
Facility Agent shall promptly (and is hereby authorised by the Senior Finance Parties to) execute and instruct the Security Agent to execute such documents as may be necessary to release such Guarantor from all past, present and future liabilities
(including rights of contribution) under the Senior Finance Documents and all existing Guarantors hereby consent to such release and confirm that their respective liabilities as Guarantor shall not be discharged or otherwise affected by such
release. 
  

	22.	RECOVERIES, LOSS SHARING, PARTIAL PAYMENTS AND SET OFF 

  

	22.1	Redistribution 

  
 If any amount owing by an Obligor under a Senior Finance Document to a Senior Finance Party (the Recovering Finance Party) is discharged by payment, set-off or any other manner other than through the
Facility Agent under this Agreement (a Recovery), then: 
  

	(a)	the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, supply details of the Recovery to the Facility Agent; 

  

	(b)	the Facility Agent shall calculate whether the Recovery is in excess of the amount which the Recovering Finance Party would have received if the Recovery has been received by the
Facility Agent under this Agreement; and 

  

	(c)	the Recovering Finance Party shall pay to the Facility Agent an amount equal to the excess (the Redistribution). 

  

	22.2	Effect of Redistribution 

  

	(a)	The Facility Agent shall treat a Redistribution as if it were a payment by the relevant Obligor under a Senior Finance Document and distribute it among the Senior Finance Parties
(other than the Recovering Finance Party) accordingly. 

  

 Page 118 

	(b)	When the Facility Agent makes a distribution under paragraph (a), the Recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the rights of the Senior Finance Parties which have shared in
that Redistribution. 

  

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

  

	(d)	If: 

  

	 	(i)	a Recovering Finance Party has to subsequently return a Recovery, or an amount measured by reference to a Recovery, to an Obligor; and 

  

	 	(ii)	the Recovering Finance Party has paid a Redistribution in relation to that Recovery, 

  
 each Senior Finance Party (other than the Recovering Finance Party) shall reimburse the Recovering Finance Party all or the
appropriate portion of the Redistribution paid to that Senior Finance Party, together with interest for the period it held the amount to be reimbursed. In that event, the subrogation in paragraph (b) will operate in reverse to the extent of the
reimbursement. 
  

	22.3	Exceptions 

  
 Notwithstanding any other term of this Clause 22, a Recovering Finance Party need not pay a Redistribution to the extent that: 
  

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

  

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

  

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

  

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

  

	(c)	the Redistribution is received in its capacity as a Hedging Lender at any time before the occurrence of an Event of Default referred to in paragraph (a) of Clause 18.3
(Acceleration) or the service of a notice (Acceleration Notice) under paragraphs (b)(i) or (b)(ii) or a demand following a notice under paragraph (b)(iii) in each case of Clause 18.3 (Acceleration) or (to the extent
received after service of an Acceleration Notice) to the extent that the Redistribution arises as a result of exercising rights under the Hedging Agreements to set off or net sums due and payable by and to it under those documents in its capacity as
a Hedging Lender or to combine accounts where such rights have been taken into account for the purpose of determining its respective exposure in accordance with the Senior Finance Documents. 

  

	22.4	Partial payments 

  

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

  

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

  

 Page 119 

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

13.9 (German guarantee limitation) to 13.14 (Dutch guarantee limitation)) against any matured obligation owed by that Senior Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either
obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Senior 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. That Senior Finance Party shall promptly

	23.2	Certificates and determinations 

  
 Any certification or determination by a Senior Finance Party of a rate or amount under any Senior Finance Document shall set out the basis of calculation in reasonable
detail and, in the absence of manifest error, shall be deemed to be conclusive evidence of the matters to which it relates. 
  

	23.3	Day Count Convention

 SCHEDULE 5 
  

MANDATORY COST FORMULA 
  
 1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Financial Services Authority
(or any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank. 
  
 2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Facility Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the Additional
Cost Rate) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage
participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum. 
  
 3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Facility Agent. This percentage will be certified by that
Lender in its notice to the Facility Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements
of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office. 
  
 4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Facility Agent as follows: 
  

			
	E x 0.01	 	 per cent. per annum
	
	 
	300	 

  
 Where: 
  

	 	(E)	is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facility Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied
by the Reference Banks to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph 6 below and expressed in pounds per €1,000,000. 

  
 5. For the purposes of this Schedule: 
  

	(a)	Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force in respect of the payment of
fees for the acceptance of deposits; 

  

	(b)	Fee Tariffs means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required
pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and 

  

	(c)	Tariff Base has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules. 

  
 6. If requested by the Facility Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable
after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facility Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the
Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per €1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of
that Reference Bank. 
  

 Page 141 

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

	(a)	the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and 

  

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

  
 Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph. 

 
 8. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of the rates of charge of each Reference
Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Facility Agent to the contrary, each
Lender’s obligations are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office. 
  
 9. The Facility Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under
compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 is true and correct in all respects. 
  
 10. The Facility Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the
Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7. 
  
 11. Any determination by the Facility Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a
Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties. 
  
 12. The Facility Agent may, after consultation with the Parent and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in
law, regulation or any requirements imposed by the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of
manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.
