If obtained, the Purchaser shall deliver to the Company true and complete copies of all commitment letters and other definitive agreements (redacted where necessary to protect commercially sensitive information not necessary to demonstrate the commitment, amount, conditionality or availability of funding (including pricing and financial ratios)) pursuant to which any such alternative source shall have committed to provide the Purchaser or Purchaser’s Guarantor with Alternative Financing.

The Purchaser and Purchaser’s Guarantor shall upon request keep the Seller Representatives reasonably informed on a reasonably current basis of the status of their efforts to consummate the Debt Financing, including providing copies of any amendment, modification or replacement of the Commitment Documents (redacted where necessary to protect commercially sensitive information not necessary to demonstrate the commitment, amount, conditionality or availability of funding (including pricing and financial ratios)) and copies of any Financing Agreements and material documentation related thereto.

| (a) | if that payment is to a Seller, the Escrow Account or such other account as the relevant Seller shall, not less than three (3) Business Days before the date that payment is due, have specified by giving notice to the Purchaser for the purpose of that payment; and

| (b) | if that payment is to the Purchaser, the account as the Purchaser shall, not less than three (3) Business Days before the date that payment is due, have specified by giving notice to the relevant Seller for the purpose of that payment.

| 16.2 | The transfer of the relevant amount by the Purchaser to the Escrow Account shall be deemed to be in full satisfaction of Purchaser’s payment obligation in respect of such payment to any Seller and the Purchaser shall not have any liability in connection with nor be concerned to see to the application or allocation of any such amount thereafter. The funds constituting the Escrow Account shall be the Sellers’ sole recourse with respect to, and the exclusive source of funds for, any payment of the Aggregate Consideration required to be made by the Purchaser pursuant to this agreement.

| 16.3 | No party shall have any liability under or in respect of any claim for a breach of this agreement or under any Transaction Document for any indirect or consequential loss or any punitive or aggravated damages, arising out of any matter or circumstance giving rise to a claim for a breach of this agreement or under any Transaction Document.

35

| 16.4 | If a party defaults in making any payment when due of any sum payable under this agreement, it shall pay interest on that sum from (and including) the date on which payment is due until (but excluding) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at the U.S. prime rate as published in The Wall Street Journal in effect on the date such payment was required to be made through the date such payment was actually received, or such lesser rate as is the maximum permitted by applicable law.

| 16.5 | All monies payable under or pursuant to this agreement shall be paid in full without any deduction, withholding, set-off or counterclaim whatsoever (except as may be required by law, in which case such deduction or withholding shall not exceed the minimum amount required to be deducted or withheld under law). If any party (the payor) is required by law to make a deduction or withholding from an Indemnity Payment made to another party or (where the payor is the Purchaser and to the extent that the deduction or withholding is a Purchaser-Linked Deduction) from the payment of the Aggregate Consideration or any part of it (in either case the party entitled to receive the payment being the payee), the payor shall, at the same time as the sum which is the subject of the deduction or withholding is payable, make a payment to the payee of such additional amount as shall be required to ensure that the net amount received by the payee will equal the full amount which would have been received by it had no such deduction or withholding been required to be made. For the purposes of this subclause 16.5, Purchaser-Linked Deduction means any deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax (other than Tax imposed under the laws of the United Kingdom) from an amount which arises solely as a result of a connection (other than a connection resulting from the Transaction) of the Purchaser with the jurisdiction imposing it.

| 16.6 | The Purchaser warrants to the Sellers as at the date of this agreement that the Purchaser is not aware of any deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax that is or will be required to be made under the laws of the United Kingdom, Jersey, Norway, Azerbaijan, Oman or Saudi Arabia from the payment of the Aggregate Consideration or any part of it.

| 16.7 | Where any Indemnity Payment is made and that sum is subject to a charge to Tax in the hands of the payee (or would be subject to Tax but for the use or set-off of any Relief) then, in addition to the sum payable, the payor shall pay such additional sum as will ensure that after taking into account such Tax the payee shall be left with a net sum equal to the sum that it would have received in the absence of such a charge to Tax.

| 16.8 | The Purchaser shall pay all stamp duty, transfer taxes, documentary or registration duties or documentary or registration taxes (which for the avoidance of doubt, in each case, shall not include VAT or any Tax charged on or by reference to income, profits or gains) required by law to be paid in any jurisdiction as a result of the transfer of Shares to it or the execution of this agreement.

| 16.9 | The Company shall use reasonable efforts to procure that each Target Group Company uses reasonable efforts (including, where appropriate, implementing commercially reasonable policies on the basis of professional advice), no less than in accordance with its past practice, to manage and mitigate the risk of creating a permanent establishment or taxable presence in a jurisdiction other than its jurisdiction of incorporation.

| 17. | Further Assurance

On or after Completion, each party shall (and each Lead Seller shall in respect of the Shares held by it only), at its own cost and expense, execute and do (or procure to be executed and done by any other necessary person) all such deeds, documents, acts and things as may be required by law or as the other parties may from time to time reasonably require in order to vest the Shares in the Purchaser or as otherwise may be necessary to give full effect to the provisions of this agreement and the Transaction Documents.
