9 | CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

9.1 | Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 9.2 (Market disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

9.2 | Market disruption

(a) | If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to the Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of the Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

| (i) | the Applicable Margin;

| (ii) | the rate notified to the Facility Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select; and

| (iii) | the Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Loan.

(b) | In this Agreement “Market Disruption Event” means at or about noon Greenwich Mean Time on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Screen Rate is not available and none of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Facility Agent to determine LIBOR for dollars for the relevant Interest Period.

SECTION 7
ADDITIONAL PAYMENT OBLIGATIONS

11 | TAX GROSS UP AND INDEMNITIES

11.1 | Definitions

(a) | In this Agreement:

“Protected Party” means a Finance Party which is or will be subject to any liability, or required to make any payment, for or on account of Tax in relation to a sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the purposes of Tax to be received or receivable) under a Finance Document;
“Tax Credit” means a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of any Tax.
“Tax Deduction” means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document.
“Tax Payment” means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Finance Party under Clause 11.2 (Tax gross-up) or a payment under Clause 11.3 (Tax indemnity).

(b) | Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 11 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) reference to “determines” or “determined” means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

11.2 | Tax gross-up

(a) | Each Obligor shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

(b) | The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower and that Obligor.

(c) | If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required; provided, however, that no Obligor shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes a Tax Deduction, if such Tax Deduction would not have been imposed but for the failure of a Finance Party to comply with any certification, identification or other similar requirement with which the Finance Party in its reasonable judgment is eligible to comply to establish entitlement to exemption for such Tax Deduction.

(d) | If an Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(e) | Within 30 days (or as soon thereafter as available) of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment appropriate evidence of payment thereof.

30

11.3 | Tax indemnity

(a) | The Borrower shall pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document within 45 days from the date the Facility Agent makes written demand therefor.

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

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

| (A) | under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

| (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 is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 11.2 (Tax gross-up).

(c) | A Protected Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (a) above shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower.

(d) | A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 11.3 (Tax indemnity), notify the Facility Agent.

11.4 | Tax Credit

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

(a) | a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and

(b) | that Finance Party has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit ,

the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor.

11.5 | Stamp taxes

The Borrower shall pay and indemnify, within 45 days from the date the Facility Agent makes written demand therefor, 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.
31

11.6 | FATCA Information

(a) | Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party shall, within 10 Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party:

| (i) | confirm to that other Party whether it is:

| (A) | a FATCA Exempt Party; or

| (B) | not a FATCA Exempt Party; and

| (ii) | supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable “passthru payment percentage” or other information required under the US Treasury Regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA.

(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 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 its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then:

| (i) | if that Party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and

| (ii) | if that Party failed to confirm its applicable “passthru payment percentage” then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made thereunder) as if its applicable “passthru payment percentage” is 100%,

until (in each case) such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

12 | INCREASED COSTS

12.1 | Increased costs

(a) | If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change in the Mandatory Cost Rate) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance by a Finance Party with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority in any case introduced, changed, interpreted or requested after October 11, 2005 (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be (x) imposed, modified or deemed applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits in or for the account of, that Finance Party or (y) imposed on that Finance Party any other condition relating to this Agreement or the Loan, and the result of any event referred to in clause (x) or (y) shall be to increase the cost to the Finance Party of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining the Advances, then the Finance Party will so notify the Borrower in sufficient detail for the Borrower to verify such increased cost and the Borrower shall, upon demand by the Finance Party, pay for the account of such Finance Party additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Finance Party for such increased cost; provided, however, that, before making any such demand, the Finance Party agrees to use its best efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different lending office for monitoring the Loan if the making of such a designation would avoid the need for, or reduce the, amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of the Finance Party, be otherwise disadvantageous to the Finance Party. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to the Borrower by the Finance Party, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

32

(b) | If a Finance Party determines that compliance with any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental or monetary authority in regard to capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law), in any case in which such law, regulation, guideline or request became effective or was made after October 11, 2005, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of, or maintained by, that Finance Party or any corporation controlling the Finance Party as a consequence of the Finance Party’s participation in the Loan or overall capital, as applicable, by increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Finance Party or any corporation controlling the Finance Party, to a level below that which the Finance Party or any corporation controlling the Finance Party could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into account the Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) then the Finance Party will so notify the Borrower in sufficient detail for the Borrower to verify such reduction in return and the Borrower shall pay for the account of such Finance Party, upon demand by the Finance Party, such additional amount as may be specified by the Finance Party as being sufficient to compensate the Finance Party for such reduction in return, to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines such reduction to be attributable to the existence that it is attributable to that Finance Party’s performing its obligations hereunder; provided, however, that before making such demand, the Finance Party agrees to use its best efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to enter into consultations with the Borrower in good faith and without prejudice to the rights of the Finance Party under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents with regard to the impact of such law, regulation, guideline or request and the amount of compensation required by the Finance Party as aforesaid. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to the Borrower by the Finance Party shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

13 | OTHER INDEMNITIES

13.1 | Currency indemnity

(a) | If any sum due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (a “Sum”), or any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First Currency”) in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second Currency”) for the purpose of:

| (i) | making or filing a claim or proof against that Obligor; or

33

| (ii) | obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,

that Obligor shall, as an independent obligation, on demand, indemnify each Finance Party to which that Sum is due against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum.

(b) | Each of the Obligors jointly and severally further agrees that no Indemnified Person shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract, tort or otherwise) to any Obligor or any of their respective shareholders, members or creditors for or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, except, with respect to any particular Indemnified Person, to the extent such liability is either admitted to by such Indemnified Person or found in a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

14 | MITIGATION BY THE LENDERS

14.1 | Mitigation

SECTION 8
GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

16 | GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY – SUBSIDIARIES

16.1 | Guarantee and indemnity

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) | guarantees, as primary guarantor and not as surety merely, to each Finance Party punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, by the Borrower of all the Borrower’s obligations under the Finance Documents whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”);

(b) | undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever another Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, the Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it were 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 another Obligor 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 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

16.2 | 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.

(a) | the liability of each Obligor shall continue or be reinstated, as the case may be, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred; and

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

16.4 | Waiver of defenses

(a) | The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries) will not be affected or discharged by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

36

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

| (ii) | 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;

| (iii) | the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect or delay in perfecting, or refusal or neglect to take up or enforce, or delay in taking or enforcing 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;

| (iv) | 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;

| (v) | 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;

| (vi) | any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security;

| (i) | diligence, presentment, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonour, notice of the creation or incurring of now or additional indebtedness of the Obligors to the Finance Parties, notice of acceptance of this guarantee, and notices of any other kind whatsoever;

| (ii) | the filing of any claim with any court in the event of a receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or judicial management;

| (iii) | the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents or such Guarantor’s obligations under this guarantee or the enforcement of this guarantee; and

| (iv) | any offset or counterclaim or other right, defence or claim based on, or in the nature of, any obligation now or later owed to such Guarantor by the other Obligors or any Finance Party.

16.5 | Immediate recourse

Each 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 (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document) before claiming or commencing proceedings under this Clause 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.
37

16.6 | Deferral of Guarantor’s rights

All rights which any Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of this guarantee, a mortgage or any other transaction) against the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents and until the end of the Security Period and unless the Facility Agent otherwise directs, each Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may have (whether in respect of any Finance Document to which it is a Party or any other transaction) 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 16 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries):

(a) | to be indemnified by an Obligor;

(b) | to claim any contribution from any third party providing security for, or 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 such Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 16.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity – Subsidiaries);

(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 any 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 32 (Payment Mechanics).

16.7 | Additional security

This Guarantee and any other Security given by any Guarantor is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by, and shall not prejudice, any other guarantee or Security or any other right of recourse now or subsequently held by any Finance Party or any right of set-off or netting or right to combine accounts in connection with the Finance Documents.

16.8 | Right of Contribution

At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this guarantee, the right of contribution of each Guarantor against each other Guarantor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment (a “Relevant Payment”) is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this guarantee. At any time that a Relevant Payment is made by a Guarantor that results in the aggregate payments made by such Guarantor in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment exceeding such Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Guarantor shall have a right of contribution against each other Guarantor who has made payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations to and including the date of the Relevant Payment in an aggregate amount less than such other Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made to and including the date of the Relevant Payment by all Guarantors in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations (the aggregate amount of such deficit, the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) in an amount equal to (x) a fraction the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of such Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount of all Guarantors multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount of such other Guarantor. A Guarantor’s right of contribution pursuant to the preceding sentences shall arise at the time of each computation, subject to adjustment to the time of each computation; provided that no Guarantor may take any action to enforce such right until the Guaranteed Obligations have been paid in full in cash, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Guarantor’s right of contribution arising pursuant to this Clause 16.8 against any other Guarantor shall be expressly junior and subordinate to such other Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other obligations under this guarantee. As used in this Clause 16.8: (i) each Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) the Relevant Net Worth (as defined below) of such Guarantor by (y) the aggregate Relevant Net Worth of all Guarantors; (ii) the “Relevant Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Guarantor’s assets on the date of any Relevant Payment exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising under this guarantee) on such date. All parties hereto recognize and agree that, except for any right of contribution arising pursuant to this Clause 16.8, each Guarantor who makes any payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall have no right of contribution or subrogation against any other Guarantor in respect of such payment until all of the Guaranteed Obligations have been irrevocably paid in full in cash. Each Guarantor recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each Guarantor has the right to waive its contribution right against any Guarantor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Guarantor would remain Solvent, in the determination of the Facility Agent.
38

16.9 | Limitation of Liability

Each of the Guarantors and the Finance Parties hereby confirms that it is its intention that the Guaranteed Obligations not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of the US Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar Federal or state law. To effectuate the foregoing intention, each of the Guarantors and the Finance Parties hereby irrevocably agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations guaranteed by each Guarantor shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such laws and after giving effect to any rights to contribution pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution among such Guarantor and the other Guarantors, result in the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

26.2 | Conditions of assignment or transfer

(a) | The consent of the Borrower is required for an assignment by an Existing Lender in accordance with Clause 26.1 (Assignments by the Lenders), unless (i) the assignment is to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, or (ii) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, in which case the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower promptly following any such assignment or transfer.

(b) | The consent of the Borrower to an assignment by an Existing Lender shall not be unreasonably withheld.

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

| (i) | accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 26 (Changes to the Lenders); or

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

| (iii) | the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender” and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the Relevant Obligations.

26.6 | Copy of Assignment Agreement to Borrowers

The Facility Agent shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed an Assignment Agreement, send to the Borrower a copy of that Assignment Agreement.

(a) | any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank; and

(b) | in the case of any Lender which is a fund, 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,

(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 Facility Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 32 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility 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 32.5 (Application of receipts; 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 among the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the “Sharing Finance Parties”) in accordance with Clause 32.5 (Application of receipts; 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:
83

(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

(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 (Sharing Among the Finance Parties) 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

32.3 | Distributions to an Obligor

(b) | If the Facility Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Facility 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 the Facility Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Facility Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Facility Agent, calculated by the Facility Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

32.5 | Application of receipts; partial payments

(c) | Any amount expressed to be payable in a currency other than dollars shall be paid in that other currency.

33 | SET-OFF

A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

SCHEDULE 4
MANDATORY COST FORMULA

1 | The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Conduct Authority and/or the Prudential Regulation Authority (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank.

2 | On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Facility Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Facility Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3 | The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Facility Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facility Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in the Loan made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4 | The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Facility Agent as follows:

E x 0.01% per annum
300
Where:

| E | is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under all the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Facility Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5 | For the purposes of this Schedule:

“Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the Financial Conduct Authority Fees Manual or the Prudential Regulation Authority Fees Manual (as the case may be) or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;
“Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the relevant Fees Rules under the activity group A.l Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the relevant Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and
“Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the relevant Fees Rules.
100

6 | If requested by the Facility Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Conduct Authority or the Prudential Regulation Authority (as the case may be), supply to the Facility Agent, the aggregate of rates of charge payable by that Reference Bank to each of the Financial Conduct Authority and the Prudential Regulation Authority pursuant to the relevant Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Conduct Authority or the Prudential Regulation Authority (as the case may be) (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of each Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

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

(a) | the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b) any other information that the Facility Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.
Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

8 | The rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraph 6 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Facility Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

9 | The Facility Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above is true and correct in all respects.

10 | The Facility Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above.

11 | Any determination by the Facility Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

12 | The Facility Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Conduct Authority, the Prudential Regulation Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

(a) | to take possession of the Ship whether actually or constructively and/or otherwise to take control of the Ship wherever the Ship may be and cause the Owner or any other person in possession of the Ship forthwith upon demand to surrender the Ship to the Security Trustee without legal process and without the Security Trustee or any other Finance Party being liable for any losses thereby caused or to account to the Owner in connection therewith;

8

(b) | where it has acted reasonably and in good faith, to sell the Ship, with or without the benefit of any Charter, by public auction or private contract at any time, at any place and upon any terms (including, without limitation, on terms that all or any part or parts of the purchase price be satisfied by shares, loan stock or other securities and/or be left outstanding as a debt, whether secured or unsecured and whether carrying interest or not) which the Security Trustee may think fit, with power for the Security Trustee to purchase the Ship at any such public auction and to set off the purchase price against all or any part of the Secured Liabilities after first giving notice (in the case of a public sale) of the time and place of sale with a general description of the property in the following manner:

| (i) | By publishing such notice for five consecutive days in a daily newspaper of general circulation published in New York City;

| (ii) | If the place of sale should not be New York City, then also by publication of a similar notice in a daily newspaper, if any, published at the place of sale; and

| (iii) | By sending a similar notice by telefacsimile confirmed by registered mail to the Owner at its address hereinafter set forth on or before the day of first publication.

(c) | to manage, insure, maintain and repair the Ship and to charter, employ, lay up or in any other manner whatsoever deal with the Ship in any manner, upon any terms and for any period which the Security Trustee may think fit, in all respects as if the Security Trustee were the owner of the Ship and without the Security Trustee or any other Finance Party being responsible for any loss thereby incurred, accounting only for the net profits, if any, arising from such use and charging upon all receipts from such use or from the sale of the Ship by court proceedings or pursuant to paragraph (b) above, all costs, expenses, charges, damages or losses by reason of such use;

(d) | to collect, recover and give good discharge for any moneys or claims arising in relation to the Ship and to permit any brokers through whom collection or recovery is effected to charge the usual brokerage therefor; and

(e) | (i) to bring suit at law, in equity or in admiralty, as it may be advised, to recover judgment for any and all amounts due under the Credit Agreement or otherwise hereunder, and collect the same out of any and all property of the Owner whether covered by this Mortgage or otherwise or (ii) to appear (if necessary, in the name of the Owner) in any court of any country or nation of the world where a suit is pending against the Ship because of or on account of any alleged lien against the Ship from which the Ship has not been released and to take such proceedings as to the Security Trustee may seem proper towards the defense of such suit and the purchase or discharge of such lien.

6.3 | Offer to cure by Owner. If at any time after an Event of Default occurs and prior to the actual sale of the Ship by the Security Trustee or prior to any foreclosure proceedings, the Owner offers to cure completely all such Events of Default and to pay all expenses, advances and damages to the Security Trustee consequent on such Events of Default, with interest in accordance with Clause 7.3 (Default interest) of the Credit Agreement, then the Security Trustee may, but shall have no obligation to, accept such offer and restore the Owner to its former position but such action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or impair any rights consequent thereon.

THIS GUARANTEE (this “Guarantee”) is made as of April [l], 2013 by:

(1) | DHT HOLDINGS, INC., a Marshall Islands corporation (the “Parent Guarantor”);

IN FAVOR OF

(2) | THE ROYAL BANK OF SCOTLAND plc as security trustee (the “Security Trustee”, which expression includes its successors and assigns) under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement described below.

BACKGROUND

(A) | Concurrently herewith, DHT Maritime, Inc., a Marshall Islands corporation (the “Borrower”), certain subsidiaries of the Borrower listed therein as Guarantors, and The Royal Bank of Scotland plc as Original Lender, Facility Agent and Security Trustee are entering into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of April [l], 2013 (the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) providing for the amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement described therein under which advances previously made to the Borrower remain outstanding under the Loan (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) in an aggregate principal amount of $160,575,000.

(B) | It is a condition to the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement that the Parent Guarantor executes and delivers this Guarantee.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises and in order to induce the Original Lender to enter into the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, the Parent Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:

1 | INTERPRETATION

1.1 | Application of construction and interpretation provisions of Amended and Restated Credit Agreement. Clauses 1.2 (Construction) and 1.5 (Computation of Time Periods) of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement apply, with any necessary modifications, to this Guarantee.

2 | GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

2.1 | Guarantee and indemnity

The Parent Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) | guarantees, as primary guarantor and not as surety merely, punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, by the Borrower of all the Borrower’s financial obligations under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the other Finance Documents (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”);

(b) | undertakes that whenever the Borrower does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any other Finance Document, the Parent Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it were the principal obligor; and

(c) | agrees that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify the Security Trustee on behalf of each Finance Party (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of the Borrower not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any other Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by the Parent Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 2 (Guarantee and Indemnity) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

2.2 | Continuing guarantee

This Guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by the Borrower under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the other Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

2.3 | Reinstatement

If any payment by the Borrower or any discharge given by a Finance Party (whether in respect of the obligations of the Borrower or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is avoided or reduced as a result of insolvency or any similar event:

(a) | the liability of the Borrower shall continue or be reinstated, as the case may be, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred; and

(b) | the Security Trustee on behalf of each Finance Party shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that security or payment from the Parent Guarantor, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred.

2.4 | Waiver of defenses

(a) | The obligations of the Parent Guarantor under this Guarantee will not be affected or discharged by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 2.4 would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Guarantee (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

| (i) | any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor (as defined in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) or any other person;

| (ii) | the release of any Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any such Obligor;

| (iii) | the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect or delay in perfecting, or refusal or neglect to take up or enforce, or delay in taking or enforcing any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or any 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;

| (iv) | any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of any Obligor or any other person;

| (v) | any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, any other 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 the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, any other Finance Document or other document or security;

2

| (vi) | any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, any other Finance Document or any other document or security;

| (vii) | any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings; or

| (viii) | any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, any Obligor.

(b) | The Parent Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably waives:

| (i) | diligence, presentment, demand for performance, notice of non-performance, protest, notice of protest, notice of dishonour, notice of the creation or incurring of now or additional indebtedness of the Obligors to the Finance Parties, notice of acceptance of this guarantee, and notices of any other kind whatsoever;

| (ii) | the filing of any claim with any court in the event of a receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or judicial management;

| (iii) | the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting any Obligor’s obligations under the other Finance Documents or the Parent Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee or the enforcement of this Guarantee; and

| (iv) | any offset or counterclaim or other right, defence or claim based on, or in the nature of, any obligation now or later owed to the Parent Guarantor by the Obligors or any Finance Party.

2.5 | Immediate recourse

The Parent 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 (including without limitation to commence any proceedings under any Finance Document) before claiming or commencing proceedings under this Guarantee. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

2.6 | Deferral of Parent Guarantor’s rights

All rights which the Parent Guarantor at any time has (whether in respect of this Guarantee or any other transaction) against the Borrower, any other Obligor or their respective assets shall be fully subordinated to the rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents and until the end of the Security Period and unless the Security Trustee otherwise directs, the Parent Guarantor will not exercise any rights which it may by reason of performance by it of its obligations or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Guarantee:

(a) | to be indemnified by the Borrower or any other Obligor;

(b) | to claim any contribution from any third party providing security for, or any other guarantor of, the Borrower’s or any other Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents;

3

(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 the Borrower or any other Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which the Parent Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 2.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity) of this Guarantee;

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

(f) | to claim or prove as a creditor of the Borrower or any other Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.

If the Parent 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 Borrower or the other Obligors under or in connection with the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the other Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Security Trustee or as the Security Trustee may direct for application by the Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 32 (Payment Mechanics) of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

2.7 | Additional security

This Guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by, and shall not prejudice, any other guarantee or Security or any other right of recourse now or subsequently held by any Finance Party or any right of set-off or netting or right to combine accounts in connection with the Finance Documents.

3 | TAX GROSS UP

3.1 | Definitions

In this Clause 3:
“Tax Deduction” means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under this Guarantee.

3.2 | Tax gross-up

(a) | The Parent Guarantor shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

(b) | If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Parent Guarantor, the amount of the payment due from the Parent Guarantor shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required; provided, however, that the Parent Guarantor shall not be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes a Tax Deduction, if such Tax Deduction would not have been imposed but for the failure of a Finance Party to comply with any certification, identification or other similar requirement with which the Finance Party in its reasonable judgment is eligible to comply to establish entitlement to exemption for such Tax Deduction.

4

(c) | If the Parent Guarantor is required to make a Tax Deduction, it shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(d) | Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Parent Guarantor shall deliver to the Security Trustee evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Security Trustee that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

4 | CURRENCY INDEMNITY

4.1 | If any sum due from the Parent Guarantor under this Guarantee (a “Sum”), or any order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum, has to be converted from the currency (the “First Currency”) in which that Sum is payable into another currency (the “Second Currency”) for the purpose of:

| (i) | making or filing a claim or proof against the Parent Guarantor; or

| (ii) | obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,

the Parent Guarantor shall, as an independent obligation, on demand, indemnify the Security Trustee against any cost, loss or liability arising out of or as a result of the conversion including any discrepancy between (A) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency and (B) the rate or rates of exchange available to that person at the time of its receipt of that Sum.

(b) | The Parent Guarantor waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount under this Guarantee in a currency or currency unit other than that in which it is expressed to be payable.

5 | COSTS AND EXPENSES

5.1 | Amendment Costs

If the Parent Guarantor requests an amendment, waiver or consent, the Parent Guarantor shall reimburse the Security Trustee for the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) reasonably incurred by the Security Trustee or any other Finance Party in responding to, evaluating, negotiating or complying with that request or requirement.

5.2 | Enforcement and preservation costs

The Parent Guarantor shall, on demand, pay to the Security Trustee the amount of all costs and expenses (including legal fees) incurred by the Security Trustee or any other Finance Party in connection with any matter arising out of, or enforcement of, or the preservation of any rights under, this Guarantee and any claim or proceedings instituted by or against the Security Trustee.
