Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

| (e) | Subject to paragraph (d) above, if this Clause ‎‎12.3 applies but any Lender does not notify a rate to the Facility Agent by the time specified in paragraph (a)(ii) above, the rate of interest shall be calculated on the basis of the rates notified by the remaining Lenders.

73

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

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

| (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 ‎‎14.2 (Tax gross-up);

| (B) | would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 14.2 (Tax gross-up), but was not so compensated solely because an exclusion in Clause 14.2 (Tax gross-up) applied;

| (ii) | a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or

| (iii) | a Treaty Lender.

74

| (b) | If such Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 14.6, then that Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each Obligor) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Facility Agent and each Swingline Agent which category applies (and the Facility Agent and each Swingline Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Company). For the avoidance of doubt, the documentation which a Lender executes on becoming a Party as a Lender shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 14.6.

| (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 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 thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party 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 ‎‎14.7 to any Party shall, at any time when such 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 the Value Added Tax Act 1994, Article 11 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union) or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom or a 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 head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

75

| (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.

| (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 paragraph (a)(i) 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 paragraph (a)(iii) 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 paragraph (a)(i) or (ii) 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.

76

| (e) | If the Company is a U.S. 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:

| (g) | If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Facility Agent by a Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Facility Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent). The Facility Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Company.

| (h) | The Facility Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) or (g) above without further verification. The Facility Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with paragraph (e), (f) or (g) above.

| (ii) | provided that the relevant Finance Party confirms in writing to the Company that it seeks to recover the equivalent of Basel III/CRD IV Costs to a similar extent from other similar borrowers and that it is actually implementing that policy in respect of similar facilities for similar borrowers, provided that similarity in this respect is determined by that Finance Party on the basis of all aspects of the relationship between that Finance Party and its clients.

SECTION 7

GUARANTEE

| 19. | Guarantee and indemnity

| 19.1 | Guarantee and indemnity

The Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:

| (a) | guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to each Finance Party punctual performance by the Company of its obligations to pay scheduled interest and fees under the Finance Documents;

| (b) | undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever the Company does not pay any amount of scheduled interest and fees when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

| (c) | agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or 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 the Company 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 ‎‎19 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

| 19.2 | Continuing guarantee

This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part or any increase of the Commitments, and this guarantee constitutes a guarantee of payment and not of collection.

| 19.3 | Reinstatement

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance 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 ‎‎19 will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

| 19.4 | Waiver of defences

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause ‎‎19 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 19.4, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause ‎‎19 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party), including:

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

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

85

| (c) | the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any 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 an 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.

| 19.5 | Immediate recourse

The Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance 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 before claiming from the Guarantor under this Clause ‎‎19. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

| 19.6 | Appropriations

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance 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 Finance 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 ‎‎19.

| 19.7 | Deferral of Guarantor's rights

Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Facility Agent (or, as the case may be, the Security Agent) otherwise directs, the Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have 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 ‎‎19:

| (a) | to be indemnified by the Company;

| (b) | to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any of the Company's obligations under the Finance Documents;

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

86

| (d) | to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring the Company to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause ‎‎19.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

| (e) | to exercise any right of set-off against the Company; and/or

| (f) | to claim or prove as a creditor of the Company in competition with any Finance 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 Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance 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).

| 19.8 | Additional security

This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party.

| 19.9 | Scope of recourse

| (a) | Notwithstanding anything in the Finance Documents (other than paragraph (c) below), each Finance Party acknowledges and agrees that recourse against the Guarantor under the Finance Documents is limited to an amount equal to scheduled interest and fees under the Finance Documents (the "Recourse Amount").

| (b) | No Finance Party shall have any claim or recourse against the Guarantor in respect of any of the Guarantor’s obligations under any Finance Document which is or remains unsatisfied after the irrevocable payment in full by the Guarantor of the Recourse Amount.

| (c) | Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, Clause 19.7 (Deferral of Guarantor’s rights) shall continue to apply to the Guarantor.

(each such bank, financial institution, trust, fund or other entity being a "New Lender") provided that the assignment or transfer by any Lender is in an amount not less than (if no Default is continuing) €5,000,000 or (if a Default is continuing) €1,000,000 or, in each case, if less, the full amount of that Lender's Commitment in relation to that Facility.

| 26.2 | Company consent

| (a) | Subject to paragraph (b) below, the consent of the Company and the Guarantor is required for an assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender, unless the assignment or transfer is:

| (i) | to another Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender (in each case, acting as principal); or

| (ii) | made at a time when a Default is continuing.

| (b) | The consent of the Company and the Guarantor is required at all times where the proposed transfer is to a person which carries on a business competing with the Company's business.

| (c) | The consent of the Company and the Guarantor to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Each of the Company and the Guarantor will be deemed to have given its consent five Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Company and the Guarantor within that time.

| (d) | The Parties agree that any refusal by the Company or the Guarantor to consent to a transfer to:

| (i) | a person which carries on business competing with the Company's business; or

114

| 26.3 | Other conditions of assignment or transfer

| (a) | 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 Finance Parties as it would have been under if it was an Original Lender; and

| (ii) | in the case of a transfer by an Existing Lender of any amount of its Swingline Commitment (other than to an Affiliate of that Existing Lender):

| (A) | that Existing Lender transfers at the same time the same amount of its Revolving Facility Commitment applicable to that Swingline Facility to the New Lender or an Affiliate of the New Lender; or

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.

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

115

| (f) | Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Overall Commitment in relation to a Revolving Facility is not less than:

| (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 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 Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

| (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, each of the Obligors and the Existing Lender shall be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents shall be cancelled (being the "Discharged Rights and Obligations");

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

| (iii) | each Agent, each Arranger, the Security Agent, the New Lender and other Lenders 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 and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent each Agent, the Arranger, the Security Agent and the Existing Lender 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".

| 26.7 | Procedure for assignment

| (a) | Subject to the conditions set out in Clause ‎‎26.2 (Company consent) and Clause ‎‎26.3 (Other 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.

117

| (c) | Subject to Clause ‎‎26.10 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

| (i) | the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender the rights under the Finance Documents expressed to be the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement;

| (ii) | the Existing Lender will be released by each Obligor and the other Finance Parties from the obligations owed by it (the "Relevant Obligations") and expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement; 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 ‎‎26.7 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause ‎‎26.6 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by that Obligor from the obligations owed to that 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 ‎‎26.2 (Company consent) and Clause ‎‎26.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer).

| 26.8 | Copy of Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement, Increase Confirmation or Accordion Increase Confirmation to Company

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

| 26.9 | Security over Lenders' rights

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause ‎‎26, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any 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,

| (c) | 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 an 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.

118

| 26.10 | Pro rata interest settlement

| (a) | 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 ‎‎26.6 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause ‎‎26.7 (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):

| (i) | 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; and

| (ii) | 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:

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

| (B) | the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause ‎‎26.10, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

| (b) | In this Clause ‎‎26.10 references to "Interest Period" shall be construed to include a reference to any other period for accrual of fees.

| (c) | An Existing Lender which retains the right to the Accrued Amounts pursuant to this Clause ‎‎26.10 but which does not have a Commitment shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of ascertaining whether the agreement of any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents.

| 27. | Changes to the Obligors

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

| (e) | To the extent that the security trusts established by this Agreement are not effective to confer the benefit of any Transaction Security upon any Secured Party:

120

| (i) | unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document, exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as an Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) in accordance with any instructions given to it by:

| (A) | all Lenders if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is an all Lender decision; and

| (B) | in all other cases, the Majority Lenders or, if the relevant Finance Document stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties, from that Finance Party or group of Finance Parties; and

| (ii) | not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from acting) in accordance with paragraph (i) above (or, if this Agreement stipulates the matter is a decision for any other Finance Party or group of Finance Parties, from that Finance Party or group of Finance Parties).

| (b) | Notwithstanding any provision of the Finance Documents, the Security Agent shall (i) exercise any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Security Agent in accordance with any instructions given to it by the Facility Agent (whom, in turn, shall act on the instructions of the Lenders or, as the case may be, the Majority Lenders) (or, if so instructed by the Facility Agent, refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it as Security Agent) and (ii) not be liable for any act (or omission) if it acts (or refrains from taking any action) in accordance with an instruction of the Facility Agent (whom, in turn, shall act on the instructions of the Lenders or, as the case may be, the Majority Lenders).

121

| (e) | Paragraph (a) or (b) above shall not apply:

| (i) | where a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document;

| (ii) | where a Finance Document requires an Agent or the Security Agent to act in a specified manner or to take a specified action;

| (C) | Clause ‎‎29.5 (Permitted Deductions).

| (f) | If giving effect to instructions given by the Majority Lenders (or in the case of the Security Agent given by the Facility Agent) would (in an Agent's or (as applicable) the Security Agent's opinion) have an effect equivalent to an amendment or waiver referred to in Clause ‎‎38 (Amendments and waivers), an Agent or (as applicable) the Security Agent shall not act in accordance with those instructions unless consent to it so acting is obtained from each Party (other than an Agent or the Security Agent) whose consent would have been required in respect of that amendment or waiver.

| (g) | In exercising any discretion to exercise a right, power or authority under the Finance Documents where either:

| (i) | it has not received any instructions as to the exercise of that discretion; or

| (ii) | the exercise of that discretion is subject to paragraph (e)(iv) above,

an Agent or the Security Agent shall be entitled (but not obliged) to do so having regard to the interests of (in the case of an Agent) all the Finance Parties and (in the case of the Security Agent) all the Secured Parties.

| (h) | An Agent or the Security Agent (as applicable) may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions of any Finance Party or group of 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 which it may incur in complying with those instructions.

| (i) | Without prejudice to the remainder of this Clause ‎‎28.3, in the absence of instructions, each of the Agents and the Security Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of (in the case of the Facility Agent) the Finance Parties and (in the case of the Security Agent) the Secured Parties, provided that the Security Agent shall not be obliged to act (or refrain from taking action) unless and until it shall have been instructed so to do by the Facility Agent.

| (j) | None of the Agents nor the Security Agent is 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 (j) 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.

124

| (e) | Each of the Agents and the Security Agent may rely on the advice or services of any lawyers, accountants, tax advisers, surveyors or other professional advisers or experts (whether obtained by any Agent or by the Security Agent or by any other Party and whether or not liability in relation thereto is limited by reference to a monetary cap, methodology or otherwise) and shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever arising as a result of its so relying.

125

| 28.9 | Responsibility for documentation

None of the Agents, the Security Agent nor any Arranger is responsible or liable for:

| (a) | the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any information (whether oral or written) supplied by an Agent, the Security Agent, an Arranger, an Obligor or any other person in or in connection with any Finance Document or the Information Memorandum or the transactions contemplated in the Finance Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document; or

| 28.14 | Resignation of the Agents and the Security Agent

| (a) | Each of the Agents and the Security Agent may resign (without giving any reason) and appoint one of its Affiliates (acting through an office in a financial centre in the United States in the same time zone as New York in the case of the U.S. Dollar Swingline Agent) as successor by giving notice to the other Finance Parties and the Company.

| (b) | Alternatively, an Agent or the Security Agent may resign (without giving any reason) by giving 30 days' notice to the other Finance Parties and the Company, in which case the Majority Lenders (after consultation with the other Finance Parties and the Company) may appoint a successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable).

| (c) | If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent or Security Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation has been given, the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) (after consultation with the other Finance Parties and the Company) may appoint a successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) (acting through an office in the United Kingdom or a financial centre in the United States in the same time zone as New York in the case of the U.S. Dollar Swingline Agent).

| (d) | If an Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer appropriate for it to remain as agent and that Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Agent under paragraph (c) above, an Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to persuade the proposed successor Agent to become a party to this Agreement as Agent) agree with the proposed successor Agent amendments to this Clause ‎‎28 and any other term of this Agreement dealing with the rights or obligations of that 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 Agent's normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the Parties.

| (e) | The retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall, at the Company’s cost, make available to the successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent or Security Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) under the Finance Documents.

| (f) | The resignation notice of an Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall only take effect upon:

| (i) | the appointment of a successor; and

| (ii) | (in the case of the Security Agent), the transfer of the Security Property to that successor.

128

Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (b) of Clause ‎‎28.27 (Winding up of security agent arrangements) and (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause ‎‎16.3 (Indemnity to each Agent), Clause ‎‎16.4 (Indemnity to the Security Agent), Clause 18 (Costs and expenses) and this Clause ‎‎28 (and any fees for the account of the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date). Its 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.

| (g) | An Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor 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 that Agent under the Finance Documents, either:

| (i) | that Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause ‎‎14.8 (FATCA information) and a Lender reasonably believes that that 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 that Agent pursuant to Clause ‎‎14.8 (FATCA information) indicates that that Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

| (iii) | that Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that it 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 that Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and that Lender, by notice to that Agent, requires it to resign.

| 28.15 | Replacement of an Agent

| (a) | After consultation with the Company, the Majority Lenders may, by giving 30 days' notice to an Agent (or, at any time an Agent is an Impaired Agent, by giving any shorter notice determined by the Majority Lenders), replace that Agent by appointing a successor Agent (acting through an office in a financial centre in the United States in the same time zone as New York in the case of the U.S. Dollar Swingline Agent).

| (b) | The retiring Agent shall (at its own cost if it is an Impaired Agent and otherwise at the expense of the Lenders) 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 Finance Documents.

| (c) | The appointment of the successor Agent shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Lenders to the retiring Agent. As from this date, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (b) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause ‎‎16.3 (Indemnity to each Agent) and this Clause ‎‎28 (and any agency fees for the account of the retiring Agent shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date).

| (d) | Any successor Agent 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.

129

| 28.16 | Confidentiality

| (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) | Any Lender may by notice to each 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.

If any Party owes an amount to an Agent or the Security Agent under the Finance Documents, that Agent or the Security Agent (as the case may be) may, after giving notice to that Party, deduct an amount not exceeding that amount from any payment to that Party which that Agent or the Security Agent (as the case may be) 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.

| (b) | The rights and remedies of the Facility Agent (whether arising under this Clause 28.32 or otherwise) which relate to an Erroneous Payment will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this paragraph (b), would reduce, release or prejudice any such right or remedy (whether or not known by the Facility Agent or any other Party).

| (c) | All payments to be made by a Party to the Facility Agent (whether made pursuant to this Clause 28.32 or otherwise) which relate to an Erroneous Payment shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or counterclaim.

| (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 relevant Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause ‎‎32 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the relevant 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 ‎‎32.6 (Partial payments).

31.2 | Redistribution of payments

The Facility Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the "Sharing Finance Parties") in accordance with Clause ‎‎32.6 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

31.3 | Recovering Finance Party's rights

On a distribution by the Facility Agent under Clause ‎‎31.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant 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 Obligor.

31.4 | 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

136

| (b) | as between the relevant 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 Obligor.

31.5 | Exceptions

(a) | This Clause ‎‎31 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause 31, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant 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 after having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

137

SECTION 11

ADMINISTRATION

32. | Payment mechanics

32.1 | Payments to the Agents

(a) | On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that Obligor (subject to Clause ‎‎32.12 (Payments to the Security Agent)) or Lender shall make the same available:

| (i) | in relation to a payment in respect of a U.S. Dollar Swingline Loan, to the U.S. Dollar Swingline Agent;

| (ii) | in relation to a payment in relation to a Euro Swingline Loan or a Sterling Swingline Loan, to the €/£ Swingline Agent;

| (iii) | in relation to a payment in relation to a Swiss Francs Swingline Loan, to the Swiss Francs Swingline Agent;

| (iv) | in relation to a payment in relation to a Danish Krone Swingline Loan/Norwegian Krone Swingline Loan/Swedish Krona Swingline Loan, to the Danish Krone/Norwegian Krone/Swedish Krona Swingline Agent;

| (v) | in relation to a payment in relation to a Swingline Facility F Nordic Loan, to the Facility F Swingline Agent; and

| (vi) | in relation to any other payment, 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 relevant 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 the principal financial centre in a Participating Member State or London, in the case of a U.S. Dollar Swingline Loan, New York) and with such bank as the relevant Agent, in each case, specifies.

32.2 | Distributions by the Agents

Each payment received by an Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause ‎‎32.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause ‎‎32.4 (Clawback and pre-funding) and Clause ‎‎32.12 (Payments to the Security Agent) and Schedule 6 (Borrowing Base), be made available by the relevant 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 relevant 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).

32.3 | Distributions to an Obligor

Each Agent and the Security Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause ‎‎33 (Set-off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

138

32.4 | Clawback and pre-funding

(a) | Where a sum is to be paid to an Agent or the Security Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, that Agent or, as the case may be, the Security 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 an Agent or the Security Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the relevant Agent or the Security 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 that Agent or, as the case may be, the Security Agent shall on demand refund the same to that Agent or, as the case may be, the Security Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by that Agent or, as the case may be, the Security Agent, calculated by it to reflect its cost of funds.

(c) | If an Agent is willing to make available amounts for the account of the Company before receiving funds from the Lenders, then, if and to the extent that that 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 Company:

| (i) | that Agent shall notify the Company of that Lender's identity and the Company shall on demand refund it to that Agent; and

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

32.5 | Impaired Agent

(a) | If, at any time, an Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to that Agent in accordance with Clause ‎‎32.1 (Payments to the Agents) may instead either:

| (i) | pay that amount directly to the required recipient(s); or

| (ii) | if in its absolute discretion it considers that it is not reasonably practicable to pay that amount directly to the required recipient(s), pay that amount or the relevant part of that amount to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank and, in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment (the "Paying Party") and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents (the "Recipient Party" or "Recipient Parties").

In each case, such payments must be made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents.

(b) | All interest accrued on the amount standing to the credit of the trust account shall be for the benefit of the Recipient Party or the Recipient Parties pro rata to their respective entitlements.

139

(c) | A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause ‎‎32.5 shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with respect to the amounts standing to the credit of the trust account.

(d) | Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Agent in accordance with Clause ‎‎28.15 (Replacement of the Agents), each Paying Party shall (other than to the extent that Party has given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (e) below) give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Agent for distribution to the relevant Recipient Party or Recipient Parties in accordance with Clause ‎‎32.2 (Distributions by the Agent).

(e) | A Paying Party shall, promptly upon request by a Recipient Party and to the extent:

| (i) | that it has not given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (d) above; and

| (ii) | that it has been provided with the necessary information by that Recipient Party,

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 nor the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision under the law of any other jurisdiction will in any way be affected or impaired.

| (b) | The Parties agree that the courts of England are the most appropriate and convenient courts to settle Disputes and accordingly no Party will argue to the contrary.

| (c) | Notwithstanding paragraph (a) above, no Finance Party shall be prevented from taking proceedings relating to a Dispute in any other courts with jurisdiction. To the extent allowed by law, the Finance Parties may take concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

| 44.2 | Service of process

| 44.5 | U.S. QFC rules

To the extent that the Finance Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedging Agreement or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, "QFC Credit Support", and each such QFC, a "Supported QFC"), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the "U.S. Special Resolution Regimes") in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support:

| (a) | In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a "Covered Party") becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Finance Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Finance Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

| (b) | As used in this Clause 44.5, the following terms have the following meanings:

"Covered Entity" means any of the following:

| (i) | a "covered entity" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

| (ii) | a "covered bank" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

| (iii) | a "covered FSI" as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

"Default Right" has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

"QFC" has the meaning assigned to the term "qualified financial contract" in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 5390(c)(8)(D).

Schedule 6

Borrowing Base

Part I

| 1. | Borrowing Base

| (a) | The Company shall ensure:

| (i) | that the Outstanding Facility Amount does not at any time exceed the Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral comprising Collateral at that time; or

| (ii) | if at any time the Outstanding Facility Amount does exceed the Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral comprising Collateral at that time, that the Company makes the payments and/or provides additional Collateral in accordance with and by the time required by paragraph 9 (Collateral shortfall) below.

| (b) | If the Company fails to comply with paragraph (a) above, an Event of Default will occur, which shall be continuing (and each Finance Party shall be entitled (without any duty of further enquiry) to treat as continuing) unless and until:

| (i) | the Security Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent and, if applicable, the relevant Swingline Agent) receives a Collateral Report from the Collateral Monitor (prepared on the basis of pricings not earlier than closing on the London Business Day before the date of receipt of that Collateral Report) which confirms that the Collateral Value is equal to or more than the Outstanding Facility Amount; or

| (ii) | that Event of Default is waived by the Majority Lenders.

| 2. | Collateral

| (a) | In order for any cash, securities or other assets to comprise Collateral, they must:

| (i) | be Eligible Collateral;

| (ii) | be transferred to and held (in the case of cash) in the Collateral Cash Accounts or (in all other cases) in the Collateral Securities Accounts;

| (iii) | be subject to the Security expressed to be created under the Transaction Security with the ranking and priority it is expressed to have, in each case, to the satisfaction of the Security Agent;

| (iv) | be such that the representations in Clause 20.13 (Collateral) are, and would continue to be, true in all material respects, if made by the Company upon inclusion of the relevant cash, securities or other assets in the Collateral; and

| (v) | not be Interoperability Collateral.

| (b) | When providing Collateral, the Company shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, provide Acceptable Bonds before providing any Eligible Equities.

| (c) | The Company may, but is not required to, provide Collateral in the form of cash before providing Collateral in the form of Acceptable Bonds or Eligible Equities.

169

| (d) | The Company shall ensure that no Interoperability Collateral is transferred to the Collateral Accounts or subject to the Security in favour of the Secured Parties. If it becomes aware that any Interoperability Collateral has been transferred to the Collateral Accounts:

| (i) | the Company must promptly notify the Security Agent;

| (ii) | that Interoperability Collateral shall be excluded from any calculations of the Collateral Value; and

| (iii) | the Company shall instruct the Collateral Monitor and the relevant Custodians to transfer that Interoperability Collateral out of the Collateral Accounts (and, provided no Default is continuing, the Security Agent will consent to any such instruction on the basis of, and in reliance upon, such notice from the Company).

| 3. | Collateral Value

The Collateral Value at any time of any Eligible Collateral shall be the amount determined by the Collateral Monitor to be the Collateral Value of that Eligible Collateral at that time (such amount to take into account the Securities Discount and Currency Discounts referred to in paragraph 4 (Eligible Collateral) below and the application of the Concentration Limit) under and in accordance with the Collateral Monitoring Deed.

| 4. | Eligible Collateral

| (a) | Eligible Collateral shall be:

| (i) | cash, denominated in an Acceptable Currency;

| (ii) | Acceptable Bonds; and

| (iii) | Eligible Equities.

| (b) | The Securities Discount (as defined in the Collateral Monitoring Deed) in respect of any Eligible Securities shall be the percentage specified for those Eligible Securities in Part II (Eligible Collateral, Securities and Currency Discount), or, from the relevant effective date, such other percentage (if any) as may be agreed by the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders) from time to time. The Currency Discount (as defined in the Collateral Monitoring Deed) shall be, from the relevant effective date, the percentage (if any) specified by the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders) at the time of agreeing any additional currency as an Acceptable Currency or a currency in which Acceptable Bonds may be denominated.

For these purposes, the relevant effective date shall be the date specified by the Collateral Monitor, following receipt of the proposed changes, to the Security Agent in accordance with the Collateral Monitoring Deed.

| 5. | Collateral Schedule

| (a) | The Company shall on the date of this Agreement deliver to the Collateral Monitor and the Security Agent a Collateral Schedule under and in accordance with the Collateral Monitoring Deed in the form distributed to the Original Lenders and the Security Agent prior to signing this Agreement.

| (b) | The Company shall not deliver any further Collateral Schedule to the Collateral Monitor, or amend, revoke or withdraw any existing Collateral Schedule, except with the prior written consent of the Security Agent (acting on instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders).

170

| 6. | Required Value Notice and CSV Collateral File

| (a) | Each time the Company requests a Loan which will cause an increase in the Outstanding Facility Amount, the Company shall, at the same time as or before delivery to the relevant Agent of the Utilisation Request for that Loan, deliver to the Collateral Monitor (with a copy to the Facility Agent and the relevant Agent and the Security Agent):

| (i) | a Required Value Notice setting the Required Value in the Base Currency at an amount not less than the Outstanding Facility Amount (taking into account the Proposed Loan); and

| (ii) | a CSV Collateral File.

| (b) | At all times while there is an Outstanding Facility Amount, the Company shall ensure that the Required Value for the purposes of the Collateral Monitoring Deed is not at any time less than the Outstanding Facility Amount.

| 7. | Utilisation Date disbursement procedures – Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans

| (a) | If:

| (ii) | the Company has requested a Loan (the "Proposed Loan") in accordance with this Agreement; and

| (iii) | all conditions under this Agreement to making that Loan have been met (other than the requirement to ensure that the Collateral Value is equal to or exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount taking the Proposed Loan into account),

then, subject to paragraph (b) to (f) below, each Lender shall make its participation in the Proposed Loan available to the relevant Agent by no later than the applicable Specified Time on the Utilisation Date of the Proposed Loan.

| (b) | The Lenders will only be obliged to make their participation in the Proposed Loan available to the relevant Agent if: (i) at the applicable Specified Time on the Utilisation Date of a Proposed Loan the Collateral Monitor delivers to the Security Agent (with a copy to the Facility Agent and, if applicable, the relevant Swingline Agent) a Collateral Report prepared on the basis of pricings not earlier than closing on the London Business Day before the Utilisation Date of the Proposed Loan or (ii) where applicable, a revised Utilisation Request is received by the applicable Specified Time on the Utilisation Date in an amount equal to or less than, when aggregated with the Outstanding Facility Amount, the Collateral Value shown in the Collateral Report.

| (c) | The relevant Agent will not make those Lenders' participations in the Proposed Loan available to the Company, except in the circumstances described in paragraph (d) below.

| (d) | If a Collateral Report is delivered pursuant to and in accordance with paragraph (b) above and that Collateral Report shows:

| (i) | that the Collateral Value at that time is equal to or greater than the Outstanding Facility Amount (taking the Proposed Loan into account), then, subject to paragraph (f) below, the relevant Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, make available to the Company in full each Lender's participation in the Proposed Loan received by that Agent; or

| (ii) | that the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount after taking the Proposed Loan into account, the relevant Agent shall request, other than in relation to a Revolving Loan in Danish Krone, Norwegian Krone or Swedish Krona, that the Company deliver to the Facility Agent and Security Agent (and if applicable, the relevant Swingline Agent) a new Utilisation Request. If a new Utilisation Request is received by the relevant Agent prior to the applicable Specified Time with a Proposed Loan equal to or less than, when aggregated with the Outstanding Facility Amount, to the Collateral Value shown in the Collateral Report, that relevant Agent shall advance the relevant funds received from the Lenders in an amount equal to the amount specified in the new Utilisation Request. If a new Utilisation Request is not received by that time, the Utilisation Request shall be treated as an entirely new request and the usual time periods and conditions will apply. The Agent shall by close of business on that day return to each Lender any part of that Lender's participation in a Proposed Loan not advanced. In relation to any funds returned to a Lender, the Company shall indemnify each Lender under Clause 16.2 (Other indemnities) in respect of the funding costs (including any Break Costs) incurred by that Lender in making its participation (or the relevant part of it) available to the relevant Agent in accordance with this paragraph 7.

171

| (e) | The relevant Agent shall only make the Lenders' participations in the Proposed Loan available to the Company pursuant to and in accordance with paragraph (d) above if Collateral in respect of which a Collateral Report has been prepared, is deposited in the Collateral Account(s) by the Company on or prior to the applicable Specified Time and, if the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount after taking the Proposed Loan into account, a new Utilisation Request, where applicable, is delivered pursuant to, paragraph ‎(d) above.

| (f) | If on the Utilisation Date:

| (i) | the Company has requested a Proposed Loan earlier than the applicable Specified Time; and

| (ii) | all conditions under this Agreement to making that Loan have been met, including receipt by the Facility Agent, the relevant Swingline Agent, and the Security Agent of a Collateral Report which shows that the Collateral Value is equal to or exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount taking the Proposed Loan into account,

then each Lender may, following a request by the Company (which shall be passed onto each Lender by the relevant Agent), make its participation in the Proposed Loan available to the relevant Agent as soon as reasonably practicable instead of delaying until the applicable Specified Time on that Utilisation Date. For the avoidance of doubt, this paragraph (f) is not intended to oblige any Lender to make its participations available earlier than the applicable Specified Time.

| 8. | Collateral Reports

| (a) | Without limiting the requirements of paragraph 7 (Utilisation Date disbursement procedures – Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans) above, on any London Business Day on which there is an Outstanding Facility Amount, the Company shall ensure that the Collateral Monitor delivers to the Facility Agent, the relevant Swingline Agent and the Security Agent by no later than 10:00 a.m. (London time) on that day, a Collateral Report compiled as of the close of business on the previous London Business Day.

| (b) | If the Company or the Facility Agent or the relevant Swingline Agent or Security Agent becomes aware that:

| (i) | the Collateral Report most recently delivered wrongly stated that the Collateral Value was equal to or more than the Outstanding Facility Amount (including where the Company has failed to notify the Collateral Monitor of the correct Required Value), when in fact the Collateral Value was less than the Outstanding Facility Amount at the relevant time; or

| (ii) | that the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount (in each case determined at the time and in the manner described in the Collateral Monitoring Deed),

the Company or the Facility Agent or the relevant Swingline Agent or Security Agent (as the case may be) shall, as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter, notify each of the other parties. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agents and the Security Agent are under no obligation to check that the Collateral Value or the Required Value is correct.

172

| (c) | If the Company fails to comply with paragraph (a) above or receives a notice under paragraph (b) above, an Event of Default will occur unless, by no later than 10:00 a.m. on the next London Business Day following the day on which that failure occurred:

| (i) | the Facility Agent, relevant Swingline Agent and the Security Agent receives a Collateral Report from the Collateral Monitor, which shows that the Collateral Value exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount; or

| (iii) | the Company demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all the Lenders, acting reasonably) that the Collateral Value is equal to or exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount.

| (d) | The Facility Agent shall, by no later than 12:00 noon on the Business Day immediately following receipt of a Collateral Report, provide all Lenders with a copy of that Collateral Report.

| 9. | Collateral shortfall

If, on any London Business Day on which there is an Outstanding Facility Amount, the Collateral Monitor gives a Collateral Report to an Agent and the Security Agent which shows that the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time (the amount of any such shortfall being the "Collateral Shortfall Amount") or the Company, the Security Agent, the Facility Agent or the relevant Swingline Agent gives a notice pursuant to paragraph ‎(b) above that the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time, the Company shall:

| (a) | by no later than 1:30 p.m. (London time) on that day transfer additional Eligible Collateral into the Collateral Account(s), and ensure that the Collateral Monitor (by no later than 3:00 p.m. (London time) on that day) gives a Collateral Report showing that the Collateral Value is no longer less than the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time; or

| (b) | by no later than 3:00 p.m. (London time) on that day prepay Loan(s) in an aggregate Base Currency Amount at least equal to the Collateral Shortfall Amount.

| 10. | Collateral Accounts

For so long as any amount is or may become outstanding under this Agreement or any Commitment is in force, the Company shall:

| (a) | enter into and maintain the Custody Agreement and the Collateral Monitoring Deed with the Collateral Monitor and the Custodians;

| (b) | maintain the Collateral Cash Accounts and the Collateral Securities Accounts with the Custodians, and operate those Collateral Accounts in accordance with the Custody Agreement, the Collateral Monitoring Deed and the Account Control Letter;

| (c) | not amend, terminate or grant any consent or waiver under the Custody Agreement or Collateral Monitoring Deed where such amendment, consent or waiver would be material to this Agreement; and

| (d) | not make any transfer (or give any instructions to make any transfer) of any cash, securities or other assets from either of the Collateral Accounts,

in each case, except in accordance with paragraph 11 (Substitution of Collateral for cash), 12 (Release of excess Collateral with consent), 13 (Substitution of Collateral for other assets with consent), 14 (Release on repayment of Loans), 15 (Cash Collateral) or 17 (Concentration Limit) below, or otherwise with the prior written consent of the Security Agent (acting on instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders).

173

| 11. | Substitution of Collateral for cash

| (a) | The Company may give instructions to the Collateral Monitor to instruct the relevant Custodians to transfer securities or other assets (but not cash) from the Collateral Accounts if:

| (i) | the Company wishes to substitute Eligible Securities comprising Collateral for cash in order to finance the repayment or prepayment of one or more Loans;

| (ii) | the amount of cash to be provided in substitution for those Eligible Securities is not less than the amount which the Company could obtain on a sale of those Eligible Securities for cash for their best value reasonably achievable in the ordinary course of trading and in accordance with the Company's usual procedures and practices at that time;

| (iii) | the Eligible Securities will be transferred against payment of the amount determined in accordance with paragraph (ii) above in full in cash into the Collateral Accounts;

| (iv) | no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of the transfer of those securities or other assets; and

| (v) | the Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral comprising Collateral, both before and after the transfer of those securities and other assets, is and will be equal to or will exceed the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time.

174

| 12. | Release of excess Collateral with consent

| (a) | The Company may (or may direct the Collateral Monitor to) give instructions to the relevant Custodians to transfer securities or other assets (but not cash) from the Collateral Securities Accounts if:

| (i) | the Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral comprising Collateral, both before and immediately after the transfer out of those securities and other assets, exceeds or will exceed the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time;

| (ii) | no Collateral to be released is of a higher Category than any Collateral to remain in the Collateral Securities Account(s); and

| (iii) | no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of the transfer of those securities or other assets.

| (b) | The consent of the Security Agent is required to any transfer in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

| 13. | Substitution of Collateral for other assets with consent

| (a) | The Company may (or may direct the Collateral Monitor to) give instructions to the relevant Custodians to transfer securities or other assets (but not cash) from the Collateral Securities Accounts if:

| (i) | the Company wishes to substitute Eligible Securities in the Collateral Securities Accounts (the "Released Collateral") with other Eligible Securities (the "Replacement Collateral");

| (ii) | prior to the transfer of the Released Collateral from the Collateral Securities Accounts, it transfers the Replacement Collateral into the Collateral Securities Accounts;

| (iii) | the amount of the Replacement Collateral is such that the aggregate Market Value (less the appropriate Securities Discount) of the Replacement Collateral is not less than the aggregate Market Value (less the appropriate Securities Discount) of the Released Collateral;

| (iv) | the Replacement Collateral consists of Eligible Securities which have a Category the same as or higher than the Category of the Released Collateral; and

| (v) | the Collateral Value of the Eligible Collateral comprising Collateral, both before and after the transfer of those securities and other assets, is and will be equal to or will exceed the Outstanding Facility Amount at that time; and

| (vi) | no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of the transfer of those securities or other assets.

| (b) | The consent of the Security Agent is required to any transfer in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

| (b) | The consent of the Security Agent is required to any transfer in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

| (c) | The Security Agent will consent to such transfer if it has received confirmation from the Facility Agent that it is satisfied that the Outstanding Facility Amount and all accrued interest, fees and other amounts then outstanding have been paid in full, which confirmation shall include an instruction to the Security Agent to give such consent.

| 15. | Cash Collateral

| (a) | In relation to cash standing to the credit of the Collateral Cash Accounts:

| (i) | the Company may instruct the relevant Custodians to exchange that cash from one currency to another in accordance with that Custodian's usual practices and procedures but only to the extent necessary to convert the cash into a currency in which an outstanding Loan is denominated and in order to fund repayment or prepayment of that Loan; and

| (ii) | the Company may instruct the Collateral Monitor to instruct the Custodians to pay cash to the relevant Agent, for application towards amounts outstanding under the Finance Documents provided no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of the transfer of such cash.

175

| (b) | The consent of the Security Agent is not required for instructions given in accordance with paragraph (a) above.

| 16. | Authorisation to give consent

| (a) | Subject to paragraph (b) below, where the Security Agent's consent is required to any transfer or instruction as described in paragraph 12 (Release of excess Collateral with consent), or 13 (Substitution of Collateral for other assets with consent) (the "Release Provisions"), the Security Agent may, and is hereby irrevocably authorised and instructed by each other Finance Party to, give its consent provided no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of any transfer and it has received confirmation from the Collateral Monitor that the conditions of transfer (as set out in the Collateral Monitoring Deed) have been satisfied.

| (b) | The Majority Lenders (via the Facility Agent) may, by notice to the Security Agent, withdraw the authorisation and instruction set out in paragraph (a) above.

| (c) | If the Security Agent is requested to consent to any transfer of any Eligible Securities or other Security Assets from the Collateral Accounts, or any other release of Transaction Security (in each case, except as described in paragraph (a) above or paragraph 17 (Concentration Limit)), it will not be obliged to give that consent unless it is instructed to do so by the Facility Agent who will give such instruction if it has the consent of all Lenders.

| (d) | The Security Agent may:

| (i) | in relation to any matter to do with whether the Collateral Value is equal to or greater than the Outstanding Facility Amount, and whether the requirements set out in the Release Provisions or set out under paragraphs 2(a)(i), (ii), (b) and (c) above or paragraph 17 (Concentration Limit) below have been met, rely on the Collateral Monitor being required to check and confirm such matters, such check and confirmation to be confirmed by the Collateral Monitor to the Security Agent;

| (ii) | in relation to any matter to do with Interoperability Collateral or whether the requirements set out under paragraphs 2(a)(iii) to (v) have been met, assume that no Interoperability Collateral has been transferred to the Collateral Accounts and all conditions under paragraphs 2(a)(iii) to (v) have been met unless the Security Agent has received express notice to the contrary from the Company or, in the case of paragraph 2(a)(iii), the Facility Agent;

| (iii) | assume no Default has occurred or is continuing or would occur as a result of any release, transfer or substitution under this Schedule 6, unless the Security Agent has received express notice to the contrary from the Facility Agent prior to acting on the relevant request for consent to any such release, transfer or substitution; and

| (iv) | assume that any amount paid to the Finance Parties has been irrevocably paid, unless it considers that there is a material risk that such a payment may be avoided or required to be refunded or repaid (and is not just aware of the underlying circumstances giving rise to that result).

| (e) | No release under any of the Release Provisions affects any of the obligations or liabilities of the Obligors under the Finance Documents.

| (f) | The Security Agent will not have any liability to any person as a result of giving any consent under the Release Provisions or under paragraph 2 (Collateral) or paragraph 17 (Concentration Limit) (except in the case of its fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct), including (without limitation) arising as a result of any subsequent shortfall in Collateral or impact on the Security created under the Security Documents.

176

| 17. | Concentration Limit

| (a) | The Company shall use reasonable endeavours to ensure that the Concentration Limit is not exceeded with respect to any Eligible Equities included in the Collateral.

| (b) | If the Collateral provided by the Company in respect of a Loan on or before the Utilisation Date for that Loan includes Eligible Equities where the Concentration Limit in respect of those Eligible Equities is exceeded, the Eligible Equities exceeding the Concentration Limit shall be deemed to have a value of zero for purposes of the Collateral Value set out in the Collateral Report provided or to be provided by the Collateral Monitor. The Lenders will (subject to all other terms and conditions of this Agreement) remain obliged to make that Loan available notwithstanding that the Concentration Limit has been exceeded in relation to those Eligible Equities unless the Collateral Value is less than the Outstanding Facility Amount (after taking the Proposed Loan into account), in which case the provisions of paragraph 7 (Utilisation Date disbursement procedures – Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans) shall apply.

| (c) | If the Collateral includes any Eligible Equities where the Concentration Limit for those Eligible Equities is exceeded:

| (i) | the Company shall, promptly upon becoming aware that the Concentration Limit is exceeded for any Eligible Equities in the Collateral, or upon notice from the Facility Agent, the Security Agent or the Collateral Monitor that they consider the Concentration Limit is or may have been exceeded, give notice of that fact to each relevant Agent and the Security Agent, including:

| (A) | details of the relevant Eligible Equities;

| (B) | the amount of the relevant Eligible Equities in the Collateral as a proportion to the Average Daily Traded Volume of such Eligible Equities; and/or

| (C) | the aggregate Market Value of the relevant Eligible Equities in the Collateral as a proportion of the Market Capitalisation of such Eligible Equities or the Outstanding Facility Amount, as applicable.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Facility Agent and the Security Agent are under no obligation to check whether the Concentration Limit is exceeded.

| (ii) | the Company shall:

| (A) | without limiting the provisions of paragraph 7 (Utilisation Date disbursement procedures – Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans) above, where those Eligible Equities were provided by the Company in respect of a Loan on or before the Utilisation Date for that Loan, either provide additional Eligible Collateral as Collateral by 1:30 p.m., or repay or prepay the Loan(s) by 3:00 p.m., on the London Business Day following the Utilisation Date for that Loan; or

| (B) | in any other case, either provide additional Eligible Collateral as Collateral by 1:30 p.m., or repay or prepay the Loan(s) by 3:00 p.m. on the London Business Day following the day on which the Company became aware that the Concentration Limit is exceeded for those Eligible Equities included in the Collateral,

in each case in a sufficient amount to enable the Collateral Monitor to provide a Collateral Report and the Company to deliver a confirmation that on the basis described in paragraph (d) below the Collateral Value is equal to or exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount.

177

| (d) | The Company shall ensure that, by no later than 5:00 p.m. on the London Business Day on which it is required to provide additional Collateral and/or repay or prepay Loan(s) in accordance with paragraph (c) above:

| (i) | the Collateral Monitor provides a Collateral Report which shows that the Collateral Value is equal to or exceeds the Outstanding Facility Amount; and

| (ii) | the Company provides either:

| (A) | a confirmation that none of the Eligible Equities included in the calculation of Collateral Value in that Collateral Report exceeds the Concentration Limit for those Eligible Equities; or

| (B) | (if Eligible Equities are included in that calculation of Collateral Value which exceed the Concentration Limit for those Eligible Equities) a confirmation that, if calculated without taking into account any Eligible Equities to the extent they exceed the Concentration Limit for those Eligible Equities, the Collateral Value will continue to be equal to or exceed the Outstanding Facility Amount, together with a description showing (in reasonable detail) the deductions to be made from the Collateral Value (as stated by the Collateral Monitor in the Collateral Report) on account of the Eligible Equities which exceed their Concentration Limit.

| (e) | An Event of Default will occur if a Collateral Report and confirmation from the Company is not delivered in accordance with paragraph (d) above and by the time required in that paragraph, unless, by that time, the Company demonstrates to the satisfaction of the Security Agent (acting on the instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders, acting reasonably) that the Collateral Value (excluding any Eligible Equities to the extent they exceed the Concentration Limit for those Eligible Equities) is equal to or more than the Outstanding Facility Amount.

| (f) | Where a Collateral Report has been delivered in accordance with paragraph (d) above, the Company may instruct the Custodians and Collateral Monitor to transfer out of the Collateral Accounts any Eligible Equities to the extent those Eligible Equities included in the Collateral exceed the Concentration Limit, and provided no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of the transfer of those Eligible Equities and the Collateral Value, after that transfer, will be equal to or will exceed the Outstanding Facility Amount. On request by the Company, the Security Agent will give to the Custodians and Collateral Monitor its consent to such a transfer provided no Default is continuing or would occur as a result of any transfer and it has received confirmation from the Collateral Monitor that its conditions of transfer (as set out in the Collateral Monitoring Deed) have been satisfied.

| 18. | Replacement of the Collateral Monitor or of a Custodian

| 18.1 | If:

| (a) | by 31 July 2020, the Company and the Security Agent have not received notice from the Collateral Monitor that the Interim Period has ended, the Company shall begin the process for replacing the Collateral Monitor and entering into a new collateral monitoring deed; and

| (b) | by 31 August 2020, the Company and the Security Agent have not received a notification from the Collateral Monitor that the Interim Period has ended:

178

| (i) | the Facility Agent shall (unless otherwise instructed by all Lenders) instruct the Security Agent to give notice under the Collateral Monitoring Deed (if such notice has not already been given by the Company) to terminate the Collateral Monitoring Deed and to enter into a new Collateral Monitoring Deed pursuant to paragraph 18.3 below; and

| (ii) | the Company shall, acting promptly, use all reasonable endeavours to find a successor Collateral Monitor as soon as reasonably practicable (if a replacement has not already been found) and enter into a new collateral monitoring deed on the same or substantially similar terms to the Collateral Monitoring Deed (other than the Interim Period), together with any other documents and amendments to this Agreement as the Facility Agent or Security Agent may determine (acting reasonably) is required.

Provided there is no Outstanding Facility Amount, no Event of Default will occur under Clause 25.3 (Other obligations) if the Company fails to comply with this paragraph (ii).

| 18.2 | If the Company, the Collateral Monitor or a Custodian gives any notice under the Collateral Monitoring Deed or the Custody Agreement of the resignation or termination of the appointment of the Collateral Monitor or the Custodian, or of any termination of the Custody Agreement, and the consent or approval of the Security Agent is required, the Security Agent will act on the instructions of the Facility Agent, itself acting on the instructions of all Lenders in relation to the replacement, resignation or termination of the Collateral Monitor, the Custodian, the Custody Agreement or the Collateral Monitoring Deed (as the case may be) provided the conditions in paragraph 18.4 below are satisfied.

| 18.3 | The resignation or termination of the Collateral Monitor or a Custodian (as the case may be) shall only become effective on (and will not become effective until) the appointment of a replacement collateral monitor or custodian in accordance with this paragraph 18 and the Collateral Monitoring Deed or as otherwise agreed by the Company and the Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of all Lenders).

| 18.4 | The appointment of a replacement collateral monitor or custodian (as the case may be) shall only take effect if the Lenders are satisfied:

| (i) | as to the creditworthiness and ability of the proposed new collateral monitor or custodian to perform the functions of the Collateral Monitor or the Custodian (as the case may be);

| (ii) | that the proposed new collateral monitor or custodian has or will become bound to perform the duties and obligations of the Collateral Monitor or the Custodian on the same or substantially similar terms to the Collateral Monitoring Deed or the Custody Agreement (as the case may be); and

| (iii) | in the case of the Custodian, that new accounts have been established to hold Collateral, security taken in favour of the Lenders and any existing Collateral transferred to those accounts and any consequential amendments made to the Finance Documents.

| 18.5 | The Lenders will not unreasonably withhold or delay any consent or approval required pursuant to this Clause 18.

| 18.6 | The Company agrees that it shall be obliged to cooperate and take all steps reasonably required to appoint the successor collateral monitor or custodian (as the case may be).
