| (3) | the increased Commitments will be assumed by one or more Eligible Institutions selected by the Parent (which shall not be a member of the Group) (each an “Increase Lender”) each of which confirms in writing (whether in the relevant Increase Confirmation or otherwise) its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of a Lender corresponding to that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume, as if it had been an Original Lender in respect of those Commitments;

Hogan Lovells

| (4) | each of the Obligors and any Increase Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another as the Obligors and the Increase Lender would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Lender been an Original Lender in respect of that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume;

| (5) | each Increase Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender” and any Increase Lender and each of the other Finance Parties shall assume obligations towards one another and acquire rights against one another as that Increase Lender and those Finance Parties would have assumed and/or acquired had the Increase Lender been an Original Lender in respect of that part of the increased Commitments which it is to assume;

| (6) | the Commitments of the other Lenders shall continue in full force and effect; and

| (7) | any increase in the Commitments relating to a Facility shall take effect on the date specified by the Parent in the notice referred to above or any later date on which the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Increase Confirmation delivered to it by the relevant Increase Lender.

| (c) | The Agent shall only be obliged to execute an Increase Confirmation delivered to it by an Increase Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to the assumption of the increased Commitments by that Increase Lender.

| (d) | Each Increase Lender, by executing the Increase Confirmation, confirms (for the avoidance of doubt) that (i) until the date on which the increase becomes effective it shall not be entitled to vote on any matter merely as a result of it being an Increase Lender, (ii) the increased Commitment shall not be used for the purposes of calculating Lender voting percentages until the date on which the increase becomes effective, and (iii) the 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 increase becomes effective in accordance with this Agreement and that it is bound by that decision to the same extent as it would have been had it been an Original Lender.

| (f) | The Increase Lender shall, on the date upon which the increase takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee in an amount equal to the fee which would be payable under Clause 27.4 (Assignment or transfer fee) if the increase was a transfer pursuant to Clause 27.6 (Procedure for transfer) and if the Increase Lender was a New Lender.

| (i) | Clause 27.5 (Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders) shall apply mutatis mutandis in this Clause 2.2 in relation to an Increase Lender as if references in that Clause to:

| (i) | an “Existing Lender” were references to all the Lenders immediately prior to the relevant increase;

| (ii) | the “New Lender” were references to that “Increase Lender”; and

| (iii) | a “re-transfer” and “re-assignment” were references to respectively a “transfer” and “assignment”.

2.3 | Additional Commitments

| (a) | The Parent may, at any time provided that no Event of Default is then continuing, by written notice to the Agent, at least 15 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Agent and the Lenders agree) in advance of the proposed date specified by the Parent in such notice to increase the amount of the Total Commitments (an “Increase Date”), request an increase in the amount of the Total Commitments from any existing Lender(s) willing to provide such increase and/or by the accession of an additional Lender(s) (in accordance with paragraph (a) of Clause 27.12 (Additional Lenders)) on the Increase Date. No existing Lender shall be obliged to participate in any such increase of the Facilities.

| (b) | The Finance Parties acknowledge and agree that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this agreement, the Parent is permitted at any time to approach, co-ordinate and communicate with any prospective additional lenders in relation to Additional Commitments which are not existing Lender(s) without first being required to approach the existing Lender(s).

| (ii) | (if applicable), in respect of any existing Lender which is willing to provide all or part of such increase (an “Existing Increase Lender”), the Agent has received from that existing Lender an executed Additional Commitments Confirmation Notice; and

| (iii) | (if applicable), in respect of any Additional Lender which is willing to provide all or part of such increase:

| (1) | the Agent has received from that Additional Lender an executed Lender Accession Memorandum in accordance with Clause 27.12 (Additional Lenders); and

No Finance Party is responsible for the obligations of any other Finance Party under the Finance Documents.

| (b) | The rights of each Finance Party under or in connection with the Finance Documents are separate and independent rights and any debt arising under the Finance Documents to a Finance Party from an Obligor is a separate and independent debt in respect of which a Finance Party shall be entitled to enforce its rights in accordance with paragraph (c) below. The rights of each Finance Party include any debt owing to that Finance Party under the Finance Documents and, for the avoidance of doubt, any part of a Loan or any other amount owed by an Obligor which relates to a Finance Party’s participation in a Facility or its role under a Finance Document (including any such amount payable to the Agent on its behalf) is a debt owing to that Finance Party by that Obligor.

Hogan Lovells

| (c) | A Finance Party may, except as specifically provided in the Finance Documents, separately enforce its rights under or in connection with the Finance Documents.

2.5 | Obligors’ Agent

| (a) | Each Obligor (other than the Parent) by its execution of this agreement or an Accession Letter irrevocably appoints the Parent to act on its behalf as its agent in relation to the Finance Documents and irrevocably authorises:

| (i) | the Parent on its behalf to supply all information concerning itself contemplated by this agreement to the Finance Parties and to give all notices and instructions (including, in the case of a Borrower, Utilisation Requests), to execute on its behalf any Accession Letter, to make such agreements and to effect the relevant amendments, supplements and variations (in each case, however fundamental) capable of being given, made or effected by any Obligor (notwithstanding that they may increase the Obligor’s obligations or otherwise affect the Obligor) and to give confirmation as to continuation of surety obligations, without further reference to or the consent of that Obligor; and

| (ii) | each Finance Party to give any notice, demand or other communication to that Obligor pursuant to the Finance Documents to the Parent, and in each case the Obligor shall be bound as though the Obligor itself had given the notices and instructions (including, without limitation, any Utilisation Requests) or executed or made the agreements or effected the amendments, supplements or variations, or received the relevant notice, demand or other communication.

| (b) | Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the Obligors’ Agent or given to the Obligors’ Agent under any Finance Document on behalf of another Obligor or in connection with any Finance Document (whether or not known to any other Obligor and whether occurring before or after such other Obligor became an Obligor under any Finance Document) shall be binding for all purposes on that Obligor as if that Obligor had expressly made, given or concurred with it. In the event of any conflict between any notices or other communications of the Obligors’ Agent and any other Obligor, those of the Obligors’ Agent shall prevail.

3. | PURPOSE

| (b) | The calculation of the Agent is designed solely to allocate the unpaid amount proportionally between the Lenders with a Revolving Facility Commitment according to their Revolving Facility Commitments and will not take into account any commitment fee or other amount payable under the Finance Documents.

| (c) | The Agent will set a date (the “Loss Sharing Date”) on which payments must be made under this Clause 7.9. The Agent shall give at least three Business Days’ notice to each affected Lender of this date and the amount of the payment (if any) to be paid or received by it on this date.

| (d) | On the Loss Sharing Date:

- 37 -

| (e) | If the amount actually received by the Agent from the Lenders under paragraph (d) above is insufficient to pay the full amount required to be paid under that paragraph, the Agent shall distribute the amount it actually receives among the affected Lenders pro rata to the amounts they are entitled to receive under that paragraph.

| (f) | If a Lender makes a payment to the Agent under this Clause 7.9 then, to the extent that that payment is distributed by the Agent under paragraphs (d) or (e) above, as between the relevant Obligor and that Lender an amount equal to the amount of that distributed payment will be treated as not having been paid by the relevant Obligor.

| (g) | Any payment under this Clause 7.9 will not reduce the obligations in aggregate of any Obligor.

8. | OPTIONAL CURRENCIES

8.1 | Selection of currency

A Borrower (or the Parent on behalf of a Borrower) shall select the currency of a Loan in a Utilisation Request.

| (a) | a Lender notifies the Agent that the Optional Currency requested is not readily available to it in the amount required; or

| (b) | a Lender notifies the Agent that compliance with its obligation to participate in a Loan in the proposed Optional Currency would contravene a law or regulation applicable to it,

the Agent will give notice to the relevant Borrower to that effect by the Specified Time. In this event, any Lender that gives notice pursuant to this Clause 8.2 will be required to participate in the Loan in the Base Currency (in an amount equal to that Lender’s proportion of the Base Currency Amount or, in respect of a Rollover Loan, an amount equal to that Lender’s proportion of the Base Currency Amount of the Rollover Loan that is due to be made) and its participation will be treated as a separate Loan denominated in the Base Currency during that Interest Period.

the relevant Borrower will only be required to make a payment under Clause 32.1 (Payments to the Agent) in an amount in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and

each Lender’s participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in the maturing Revolving Facility Loans and that Lender will not be required to make a payment under Clause 32.1 (Payments to the Agent) in respect of its participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans; and

each Lender will be required to make a payment under Clause 32.1 (Payments to the Agent) in respect of its participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans only to the extent that its participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans exceeds that Lender’s participation (if any) in the maturing Revolving Facility Loans and the remainder of that Lender’s participation in the new Revolving Facility Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in the maturing Revolving Facility Loan.

| (c) | At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Revolving Facility Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the Termination Date and will be treated as separate Revolving Facility Loans (the “Separate Loans”) denominated in the currency in which the relevant participations are outstanding.

| (d) | A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Revolving Facility Loan by giving five Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this paragraph (d) to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt.

| (e) | Interest in respect of a Separate Loan will accrue for successive Interest Periods selected by the Borrower by the time and date specified by the Agent (acting reasonably) and will be payable by that Borrower to the Agent (for the account of that Defaulting Lender) on the last day of each Interest Period of that Loan.

| (f) | The terms of this agreement relating to Revolving Facility Loans generally shall continue to apply to Separate Loans other than to the extent inconsistent with paragraphs (c) to (e) above, in which case those paragraphs shall prevail in respect of any Separate Loan.

| (d) | The Agent shall notify the Parent and the other Lenders of the response of each Lender as soon as reasonably practicable (but in any event within 3 Business Days) following its receipt.

| (e) | If some, but not all, of the Lenders notify the Agent in accordance with this Clause 10 that they agree to the Extension Request, the Parent may no later than five Business Days before the Original Termination Date or First Extended Termination Date (as applicable) notify the Agent that the Parent does not wish to extend the then Termination Date in accordance with the Extension Request. If the Parent does so notify the Agent, the Termination Date shall not be extended in accordance with this Clause 10.

| (i) | confirms it does not agree to the Extension Request or the Extension Request in respect of its full participation in the Facility; or

| (ii) | does not notify the Agent in writing within the applicable timeframe in accordance with paragraph (b) of Clause 10.2,

then the Parent may, no less than 25 days prior to the then-current Termination Date, in writing via the Agent offer that Lender’s share of the Facilities or the declined part of the extension requested in the Extension Request (the “Additional Offer”) to each other Lender that has indicated it is willing to participate in the extension and each such Lender shall in writing via the Agent, by no later than ten days from the date of receipt of the Additional Offer by the Agent, notify the Agent and the Parent in writing whether it agrees to provide that share of the Facilities. The Agent shall act promptly in dealing with such requests and shall promptly notify the Parent and the other Lenders of any Lender which agrees to an Additional Offer.

| (g) | If no, or insufficient, Lenders are willing to provide the extension requested in the Extension Request (or have not notified the Agent in writing within the required time periods set out in paragraph (f) above), the Parent may (at its discretion) offer, on the same terms, the declined part of the extension requested in the Extension Request (the “Third Party Extension Offer”) to any other bank, financial institution, trust, fund or other entity which is regularly engaged in or established for the purpose of making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (a “Third Party Extension Lender”).

| (b) | By countersigning an Extension Confirmation each such entity shall irrevocably commit, in respect of the Commitments set out against its name, to the extension and, in the case of a Third Party Extension Lender, to become a Lender and party to this agreement in accordance with Clause 27.11 (Extension Lender).

| (c) | Upon receipt of a duly completed Extension Confirmation, the Agent shall promptly acknowledge receipt of that request and, if appropriate, the accession of the relevant Lenders to this agreement and shall promptly inform the Lenders and the Parent in writing of that receipt. The Agent shall only be obliged to sign an Extension Confirmation upon its completion of all “know your customer” checks or other similar checks relating to any person under any applicable laws or regulations that it is required to carry out in relation to the accession of any entity as a Lender.

| (d) | If the other provisions of this Clause 10.3 are met prior to the then Termination Date, each Party:

| (i) | agrees that the Total Commitments or the portion of Total Commitments referred to in the Extension Confirmation, as applicable, shall be extended to the First Extended Termination Date or the Second Extended Termination Date (as applicable);

| (ii) | authorises and instructs the Agent to countersign the Extension Confirmation to record the extension as set out in this Clause 10, and

on the applicable Termination Date, that portion of the Facility and the Total Commitments which are not being extended pursuant to this Clause 10 shall be repaid in accordance with Clause 10.4 (Refusing Banks) below.

| (e) | Subject to the relevant Extension Confirmation being signed by the Agent, the Parent and the relevant Extension Lenders, the Total Commitments or the portion of Total Commitments referred to in the Extension Confirmation, as applicable, shall be extended to the First Extended Termination Date or the Second Extended Termination Date (as applicable) for the purpose of this Agreement and the other Finance Documents.

| (c) | On the Original Termination Date or the First Extended Termination Date (as applicable), the Parent shall repay (or procure the repayment to) each Refusing Lender such Refusing Lender’s share of each outstanding Loan under the Facilities which is the subject of the relevant Extension Request and all other sums in relation thereto then due pursuant to the Finance Documents but unpaid together with accrued interest thereon.

| (d) | The Commitment of each Refusing Lender held by that Refusing Lender as at the Original Termination Date and the First Extended Termination Date (as applicable) shall automatically be cancelled and reduced to zero on the Original Termination Date or the First Extended Termination Date (as applicable) (provided that if a Refusing Lender has, no later than three Business Days before the Original Termination Date or the First Extended Termination Date (as applicable), transferred all of its Commitment to one or more Lenders (new or existing) which have, no later than three Business Days before the Original Termination Date or, if applicable, the First Extended Termination Date, notified the Agent in writing that they agree to the relevant Extension Request, such Commitment held by such transferee Lender (new or existing) on the Original Termination Date and the First Extended Termination Date (as applicable) shall not be cancelled).

10.5 | Extension Fees

If any extension is so agreed, the Parent shall pay to the Agent (for the account of each Extension Lender) an extension fee in an amount in the amount agreed between the Parent and the relevant Extension Lender(s). Such fee shall be payable on the date which, but for the exercise of the extension option pursuant to this Clause 10.5, would be the Termination Date unless the relevant Extension Lenders otherwise agree.

10.6 | Responsibility of Existing Lender to Third Party Extension Lender

Clause 27.5 (Limitation of Responsibility of Existing Lenders) shall apply mutatis mutandis in this Clause 10 in relation to a Third Party Extension Lender as if references in that clause to:

| (b) | upon the Agent notifying the Parent, the Available Revolving Facility Commitment and the Available Swingline Commitment of that Lender and of any Affiliate of that Lender which is a Swingline Lender will be immediately cancelled (to the greatest extent possible which does not result in that Lender (or its Affiliate) failing to meet the requirements set out in paragraph (e) of Clause 27.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer)); and

| (c) | to the extent that the Lender’s (and any such Affiliate’s) participation has not been transferred pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 11.5 (Right of replacement or repayment and cancellation in relation to a single Lender), each Borrower shall repay that Lender’s (and any such Affiliate’s) participation in the Loans made to that Borrower on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan occurring after the Agent has notified the Parent or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender and any such Affiliates in the notice delivered to the Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law) and that Lender’s (and any such Affiliate’s) corresponding Commitment(s) shall be immediately cancelled in the amount of the participations repaid.

11.4 | Voluntary prepayment of Loans

The Borrower to which a Revolving Facility Loan has been made may, if it gives the Agent not less than:

| (a) | in the case of a Term Rate Loan, 5 Business Days’ (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders may agree) prior notice; or

| (b) | in the case of a Compounded Rate Loan, 5 RFR Banking Days’ (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders may agree) prior notice,

| (1) | give the Agent notice of cancellation of the Commitment(s) of that Lender and of any Affiliate of that Lender which is a Swingline Lender and its intention to procure the repayment of that Lender’s and any such Affiliate’s participation in the Loans; or

| (2) | give the Agent notice of its intention to replace that Lender (together with any Affiliate of that Lender) in accordance with Clause 38.6 (Replacement of a Lender).

| (1) | is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up);

16.4 | Tax Credit

If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:

| (a) | not a Qualifying Lender;

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

| (c) | a Treaty Lender.

If such a Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 16.5 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 Agent which category applies (and the Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the Parent).

16.6 | Stamp taxes

The Parent shall pay and, within three Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability which that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document, other than, in each case, any Taxes payable in connection with any Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or other document pursuant to which a Lender’s interest in any Loan is transferred or assigned, or otherwise arising in connection with a transfer or assignment of a Lender’s interest in any Loan (save to the extent such a transfer or assignment occurs as a result of or in connection with Clause 19 (Mitigation by the Lenders) or at a time when an Event of Default is continuing).

16.7 | VAT

| (a) | All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply and, accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes

Hogan Lovells

- 63 -

| chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).

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

| (i) | (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this 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 reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

| (d) | Any reference in this Clause 16.7 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to person who is treated as making the relevant supply or (as applicable) receiving the relevant supply (such as, where applicable, the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994)).

| (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.

| (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 (a)(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.

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

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

| (ii) | where a Borrower is a US Tax Obligor on a date on which any other Lender becomes a Party as a Lender, that date;

21.4 | Waiver of defences

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause 21 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 21, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 21 (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;

| (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;

| (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 21.

21.7 | Deferral of Guarantors’ 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 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 21:

| (a) | to be indemnified by an Obligor;

| (b) | to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor’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;

| (d) | to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 21.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

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

| (f) | to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor 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 Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 32 (Payment mechanics).

| (b) | each other Guarantor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents 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 any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or relate to the assets of the Retiring Guarantor.

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.

21.10 | Guarantee limitations

SECTION 8

Changes To Parties

27. | CHANGES TO THE LENDERS

27.1 | Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

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

| (a) | assign any of its rights; or

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

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

27.2 | Parent consent

| (a) | The consent of the Parent 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; or

| (ii) | if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund of the Existing Lender; or

| (iii) | made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing.

Hogan Lovells

- 98 -

| (b) | The consent of the Parent to an assignment or transfer must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Parent will be deemed to have given its consent ten Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it unless consent is expressly refused by the Parent within that time. For the avoidance of doubt, it shall be reasonable for the Parent to withhold its consent for any assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender to a Competitor, a Loan to Own Investor or a Defaulting Lender.

27.3 | Other conditions of assignment or transfer

| (a) | An assignment will only be effective on:

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

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

| (b) | A transfer will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 27.6 (Procedure for transfer) is complied with.

| (c) | If:

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

| (ii) | as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 16 (Tax gross-up and indemnities) or Clause 17 (Increased Costs),

then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. This paragraph (c) shall not apply:

| (iii) | in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facility; or

| (iv) | in relation to Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up), to a Treaty Lender that has included a confirmation of its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (g)(ii)(2) of Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up) if the Obligor making the payment has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Treaty Lender provided that this paragraph (c) shall continue to apply in respect of a payment if that payment falls due before or less than five Business Days after the Borrower receives a copy of the documentation containing confirmation of the Treaty Lender’s scheme reference number and jurisdiction of tax residence.

Hogan Lovells

- 99 -

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

| (e) | Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Overall Commitment is not less than:

| (i) | its Swingline Commitment; or

| (ii) | if it does not have a Swingline Commitment, the Swingline Commitment of a Lender which is its Affiliate.

27.4 | Assignment or transfer fee

The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of £2,500.

27.5 | Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lenders

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

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

| (ii) | the financial condition of any Obligor;

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

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

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

| (b) | Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

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

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

| (c) | Subject to Clause 27.10 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date:

| (i) | to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents 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) | the Agent, the Mandated Lead Arranger, 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 the Agent, the Mandated Lead Arranger 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”.

27.7 | Procedure for assignment

Hogan Lovells

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

| (c) | Subject to Clause 27.10 (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 27.7 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 27.6 (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 27.2 (Parent consent) and Clause 27.3 (Other conditions of assignment or transfer).

27.8 | Copy of Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation to Parent

| (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,

| (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:

| (1) | when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; and

| (b) | In this Clause 27.10 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 27.10 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.

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

| (1) | any act, event or circumstance not reasonably within its control; or

| (2) | the general risks of investment in, or the holding of assets in, any jurisdiction,

Any successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

| (g) | After consultation with the Parent, the Majority Lenders may, by notice to the Agent, require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above.

| (ii) | the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 16.8 (FATCA information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

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

29.13 | Confidentiality

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

29.14 | Relationship with the Lenders

| (a) | Subject to Clause 27.10 (Pro rata interest settlement), the Agent may treat the person shown in its records as Lender at the opening of business (in the place of the Agent’s principal office as notified to the Finance Parties from time to time) as the Lender acting through its Facility Office:

| (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 the Agent appoint a person to receive on its behalf all notices, communications, information and documents to be made or despatched to that Lender under the Finance Documents. Such notice shall contain the address, fax number and (where communication by electronic mail or other electronic means is permitted under Clause 34.5 (Electronic communication)) electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the transmission of information by that means (and, in each case, the department or officer, if any, for whose attention communication is to be made) and be treated as a notification of a substitute address, fax number, electronic mail address (or such other information), department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 34.2 (Addresses) and paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 34.5 (Electronic communication) and the Agent shall be entitled to treat such person as the person entitled to receive all such notices, communications, information and documents as though that person were that Lender.

29.15 | Credit appraisal by the Lenders

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

| (a) | the financial condition, status and nature of each member of the Group;

| (b) | the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document;

Hogan Lovells

- 115 -

| (c) | whether that Lender has recourse, and the nature and extent of that recourse, against any Party or any of its respective assets under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by 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; and

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

29.16 | Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent

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

29.17 | Agent’s management time

Any amount payable to the Agent under Clause 18.3 (Indemnity to the Agent), Clause 20 (Costs and expenses) and Clause 29.11 (Lenders’ indemnity to the Agent) shall include the cost of utilising the Agent’s management time or other resources, in relation to work which is agreed (prior to the commencement of such work) between the Agent and the Parent (each acting reasonably) to be of an exceptional nature and outside the scope of the Agent’s ordinary duties, and will be calculated on the basis of such reasonable daily or hourly rates as the Agent may notify to the Parent and the Lenders, and is in addition to any fee paid or payable to the Agent under Clause 15 (Fees) provided that:

| (a) | prior to an Event of Default (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, following an Event of Default which is continuing), no such costs shall be payable unless the Agent has obtained pre-approval from the Parent prior to incurring such costs (such pre-approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); and

| (b) | the Agent’s hourly rate shall not exceed the rate agreed between the Parent and the Agent from time to time.

29.18 | Amounts paid in error

| (a) | If the Agent pays an amount to another Party and the Agent notifies that Party that such payment was an Erroneous Payment then the Party to whom that amount was paid by the Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Agent.

| (b) | Neither:

| (i) | the obligations of any Party to the Agent; nor

| (ii) | the remedies of the Agent,

(whether arising under this Clause 29.18 or otherwise) which relate to an Erroneous Payment will be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this paragraph (b), would reduce, release or prejudice any such obligation or remedy (whether or not known by the Agent or any other Party).

Hogan Lovells

- 116 -

| (c) | All payments to be made by a Party to the Agent (whether made pursuant to this Clause 29.18 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.

| (d) | In this Agreement, “Erroneous Payment” means a payment of an amount by the Agent to another Party which the Agent determines (in its sole discretion) was made in error.

30. | CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE FINANCE PARTIES

No provision of this Agreement will:

| (a) | interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

| (b) | oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim; or

| (c) | oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.

31. | SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

31.1 | Payments to Finance Parties

If a Finance Party (a “Recovering Finance Party”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 32 (Payment mechanics) (a “Recovered Amount”) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

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

| (b) | the 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 Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 32 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

| (c) | the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 32.5 (Partial payments).

31.2 | Redistribution of payments

The 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 32.5 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

Hogan Lovells

- 117 -

31.3 | Recovering Finance Party’s rights

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

| (b) | as between the relevant 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, 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 having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

SECTION 10

32.1 | Payments to the Agent

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

Hogan Lovells

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

32.2 | Distributions by the Agent

Each payment received by the 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) be made available by the 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 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).
