which has confirmed in writing its willingness to participate in the Additional Commitments with respect to the Non-Pro Rata Increase; and provided further that the provisions set out in Clause 2.2 (Increase) paragraphs (c) (iii) and (iv) and (d) to (h) shall apply to such Non-Pro Rata Increase mutatis mutandis.

(b)

Within 15 Business Days of receipt of a copy of such Additional Commitment Request from the Agent (the "First Response Period"), each Lender shall notify the Agent and the Company whether it is prepared to participate in the Additional Commitments in its Pro Rata Portion. Any Lender which has not responded to the Agent within such period shall be deemed to have declined to participate in such Additional Commitment.

If the aggregate of the amounts (the "Committed Amount") notified by the Lenders prepared to participate in the Additional Commitment (each a "Participating Lender") to the Agent in accordance with, and within the period set out in, paragraph (b) above is equal to the Requested Additional Commitment Amount, the Agent shall allocate the participations in the Additional Commitments to each Participating Lender based on the Pro Rata Portion of each Lender. If the Committed Amount is less than the Requested Additional Commitment Amount due to not all Lenders being Participating Lenders or a Participating Lender only willing to commit less than its Pro Rata Portion the Agent shall allocate the Additional Commitments to each Participating Lender based on the amounts notified by them (provided that no allocation shall be made in excess of a Pro Rata Portion of a Participating Lender) and shall then proceed as set out

(d)

If the Agent determines that the Committed Amount is less than the Requested Additional Commitment Amount, it shall notify the Company and each Participating Lender without undue delay thereof and of the balance of the Requested Additional Commitment Amount and the Committed Amount (the "Additional Commitment Shortfall").

(e)

Each Participating Lender may then within five Business Days of such notification notify the Agent and the Company whether or not it is willing to increase its participation in the Additional Commitments (and if so by which amount). Any Participating Lender which has not responded to the Agent within such period shall be deemed to have declined to further increase its participation in the Additional Commitments. If the Agent then determines that the further increase in the Additional Commitments offered by the relevant Participating Lenders is equal to or less than the Additional Commitment Shortfall, it shall allocate further participations in the Requested Additional Commitments to each Participating Lender on the basis of the additional amounts offered by the respective Participating Lender. If the Agent determines that the aggregate amount of the further increase in the Additional Commitments offered by the relevant Participating Lenders is higher than the Additional Commitment Shortfall, it shall allocate the further participations pro rata based on the total amount of all Additional Commitments offered by Participating Lenders pursuant to this paragraph (e) and the share of each Participating Lender in such total amount. Sentences 3 and 4 of paragraph (c) above shall then apply mutatis mutandis.

(f)

If the Agent then determines that the aggregate amount of the Participating Lenders' Committed Amount is less than the Requested Additional Commitment Amount, it shall notify the Company without undue delay of such occurrence and of the final Additional Commitment Shortfall. The Company may then within 20 Business Days of such notice select any other bank, financial institution, trusts, funds or other entities (each of which shall not be a member of the Group) to participate in the respective Additional Commitments provided that the aggregate amount of such participations shall not exceed the amount of the final Additional Commitment Shortfall and further provided that such potential lender confirms in writing within such 20 Business Days its willingness to assume the respective Additional Commitments as further specified in paragraph (c) of Clause 2.2 (Increase) by executing the respective Increase Confirmation.

(g)

No Lender shall be obliged to participate in any Additional Commitment or increase its participation in the Additional Commitment it was prepared to assume unless it has otherwise agreed in accordance with paragraphs (c), (d) or (e) (as the case may be) above.

2.4

Finance Parties' rights and obligations

(a)

The obligations of each Finance Party under the Finance Documents are several and do not constitute a joint obligation (Ausschluss der gesamtschuldnerischen Haftung). Failure by a Finance Party to perform its obligations under the Finance Documents does not affect the obligations of any other Party under the Finance Documents. 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 do not constitute a joint creditorship (Ausschluss der Gesamtgläubigerschaft) and any debt arising under the Finance Documents to a Finance Party from an Obligor shall, except as otherwise set out in this Agreement or any other Finance Document, be a separate and independent debt (Ausschluss der gesamtschuldnerischen Haftung).

(c)

A Finance Party may, except as otherwise stated in the Finance Documents, separately enforce its rights under the Finance Documents.

no Default is continuing or would result from the issue of the L/G;

(b)

the Repeated Representations made by each Obligor are true in all material respects; and

(c)

UTILISATION

5.1

General

(a)

Each Borrower may, subject to the provisions of this Clause 5 (Utilisation) and Clause 7 (L/Gs) utilise the Facility by delivering to the relevant Issuing Bank a duly completed Utilisation Request by entering the required data into COGS in accordance with the COGS Conditions.

(b)

If COGS is not available the relevant Borrower may deliver the respective duly completed Utilisation Request to the Agent not later than the Specified Time provided that any Utilisation Request not received via COGS must be pre-advised to the Agent by telephone by the relevant Borrower.

(c)

As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement and all Existing L/Gs having been rolled as L/Gs into this Agreement, the Company shall endeavour to request Utilisations on a pro rata basis to ensure that the Commitment of each Lender is utilised pro-rata to its participation in the Total Commitments.

5.2

Completion of a Utilisation Request

(a)

Subject to Clause 5.8 (Affiliate of a Borrower) and paragraph (f) below, each Utilisation Request is irrevocable and will not be regarded as having been duly completed unless:

(i)

it identifies the relevant Borrower and the type of L/G (and for the purposes of COGS, standby letters of credit include commercial or trade letters of credit);

(ii)

it identifies the relevant Issuing Bank and whether it is to be issued by one or several Issuing Banks (and in the latter case in which portions);

(iii)

it identifies the proposed Utilisation Date which is a Business Day falling within the Availability Period;

(iv)

it identifies the amount and currency of the requested L/G;

(v)

the L/G is denominated in the Base Currency or an Optional Currency;

(vi)

the amount of the L/G requested is an amount whose Base Currency Amount is not more than the Available Facility and the Available Commitment of the Issuing Bank;

(vii)

a form of the relevant requested L/G as outlined in Clause 3.1 (Purpose) is (x) attached, (y) agreed with the relevant Issuing Bank and (z) satisfies the L/G Approved Criteria;

(viii)

the obligor of the obligations secured by the L/G is the respective Borrower, the beneficiary of the L/G is identified and the underlying contract is specified;

(ix)

it specifies the expiry date specified in the relevant L/G or, as the case may be, the expiry date of the Commercial Lifetime of the relevant L/G; and

(x)

the delivery instructions for the L/G are specified.

(b)

The Agent shall in no event be held responsible for a non - or a delayed processing of any Utilisation Request (irrespective of whether made through COGS or otherwise) unless such delayed processing is caused by gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Agent. As the Agent will not, in the event of a Utilisation Request or other information submitted by telefax, letter or email, be in a position to verify whether any document received as a Utilisation Request has been duly authorised and sent by the relevant Borrower, the Company and each Borrower agrees that the Agent shall be entitled to execute all Utilisation Requests hereunder received by telefax, letter or email or with respect to which further information was delivered by telefax, letter or email if on their face such telefaxes, letters or emails appear to be duly authorised and executed by persons acting on behalf of the Company and/or the relevant Borrower who have been identified as authorised signatories in accordance with the COGS Conditions or in the certificate referred to under paragraph (g) of Part 1 or number 7 of Part 2 (Conditions Precedent required to be delivered by an Additional Obligor) of Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent). Neither the Agent nor any of the Issuing Banks shall be held liable for the execution of any forged Utilisation Request received by telefax, letter or email except where the forgery is evident (offensichtlich) or the Agent or the respective Issuing Bank acted with gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(c)

Provided the requirements set out in Clause 4.1 (Initial conditions precedent) and Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent) are satisfied, each Existing L/G shall be treated as an L/G issued under this Agreement.

(d)

Only one L/G may be requested in each Utilisation Request.

(e)

The maximum aggregate Base Currency Amount of all outstanding standby, commercial or trade letters of credit shall at no time exceed EUR 50,000,000.

(f)

A Utilisation Request may only be revoked by the relevant Borrower:

(i)

before the Agent has forwarded the Utilisation Request to the relevant Issuing Bank by giving notice to the Agent; or

(ii)

thereafter, by giving notice to the relevant Issuing Bank which has to be received by that Issuing Bank at a time that Issuing Bank will, with reasonable efforts, still be in a position to stop the process that the relevant L/G is delivered to the relevant beneficiary or any other party as instructed by the relevant

Borrower. In such case that Issuing Bank shall promptly inform the Agent whether or not that L/G has been issued.

5.3

Issue of L/Gs

(a)

The Agent must promptly notify the relevant Issuing Bank of the details of the requested L/G (including its Base Currency Amount if the requested L/G is denominated in an Optional Currency).

(b)

An L/G can be issued by one Issuing Bank or jointly by two or more Issuing Banks provided that there shall be no joint liability (Gesamtschuldnerschaft) between the relevant Issuing Banks and each Issuing Bank shall only be liable for payment of a certain portion of the Face Amount of the relevant L/G which portion must be set out in the L/G and comply with the requirements set out in paragraph (c) of Clause 5.4 (Extension of L/Gs) below.

(c)

A proposed Issuing Bank is not obliged to issue (and shall not issue) any L/G if it notifies the relevant Borrower that it will not be able to issue the L/G on the basis of any of the following grounds:

(i)

a Lender's share in the outstanding L/Gs (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any L/G in respect of which Cash Cover has been provided) would exceed its Commitment;

(ii)

the Base Currency Amount (calculated as at the date of the Utilisation Request) of all outstanding L/Gs constituting standby, commercial or trade letters of credit (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any L/Gs of that type in respect of which Cash Cover has been provided) would exceed EUR 50,000,000;

(iii)

the Base Currency Amount (calculated as at the date of the Utilisation Request) of all outstanding L/Gs (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any L/G in respect of which Cash Cover has been provided) would exceed the Total Commitments;

(iv)

the requirements of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request) are not satisfied; or

(v)

the L/G Approved Criteria are not satisfied and the relevant Issuing Bank is not willing to dispense with these requirements.

For the avoidance of doubt, any letter of credit or similar instrument issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of the amounts described above will be issued on a bilateral basis and not be subject to (nor benefit from) the provisions of this Agreement.

(d)

Subject to the terms of this Agreement being met:

(i)

the relevant Issuing Bank must issue the L/G on the Utilisation Date; or

(ii)

with respect to the Existing L/Gs, on and from the date the requirements set out in Clause 4.1 (Initial conditions precedent) and Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent) are satisfied, each Existing L/G will be treated as an L/G issued under this Agreement.

(e)

The Issuing Bank shall use COGS, if COGS is available, also for any amendment, reduction or cancellation of any L/G issued under COGS.

(f)

For the avoidance of doubt, each relevant Issuing Bank is itself responsible for checking whether any currency requested has been approved by it and whether all other requirements for a Utilisation are satisfied and the Agent will take no responsibility for this.

5.4

Extension of L/Gs

(a)

A Borrower may by giving a Utilisation Request request that an L/G issued on its behalf which would otherwise expire is extended by delivery to the Agent of a notice specifying the new proposed Maturity Date in accordance with the terms of that L/G and, in any event, by no later than four Business Days before the Maturity Date of that L/G.

(b)

The Agent must promptly notify the relevant Issuing Bank of the details of the requested extension of the L/G and the amount of its share of that L/G.

(c)

An Issuing Bank shall only be obliged to comply with such a Utilisation Request if on the date of the Utilisation Request and on the proposed extension date no Event of Default is continuing or would result from such extension and no Change of Control has occurred.

(d)

An Issuing Bank is not obliged to (and shall not) extend any L/G if as a result of such extension:

(i)

a Lender's share in the outstanding L/Gs (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any L/G in respect of which Cash Cover has been provided) would exceed its Commitment;

(ii)

the Base Currency Amount (calculated as at the date of the Utilisation Request) of all outstanding standby, commercial or trade letters of credit (including, for the avoidance of doubt and without limitation, any L/G in respect of which Cash Cover has been provided) would exceed EUR 50,000,000; or

(iii)

(e)

The terms of each extended L/G will remain the same as before the extension, except that:

(i)

its amount may be reduced; and

(ii)

its Maturity Date will be the date specified in the Utilisation Request.

(f)

Subject to the terms of this Agreement being met, the relevant Issuing Bank must extend the L/G in the manner requested.

5.5

Reversal and reduction of L/Gs

(a)

An Issuing Bank shall (if COGS is available) enter into COGS and otherwise give written notice to the Agent (in each case an "L/G Reduction Notice") of any reduction pursuant to any event set out in paragraph (b) of this Clause 5.5 of the maximum amount payable under any L/G issued by it promptly upon the occurrence of such reduction.

(b)

For the purposes of paragraph (a) above, a reduction of the maximum amount payable under any L/G occurs if an Issuing Bank is satisfied that:

(i)

in relation to an L/G issued by that Issuing Bank which under its terms expires without any doubt if no demand for payment has been received by that Issuing Bank on or before a specified expiry date, no demand in respect of that L/G has been received by that Issuing Bank on or before such date; or

(ii)

in relation to an L/G issued by that Issuing Bank whose terms do not provide for an expiry without any doubt on a specific expiry date if no demand for payment has been received by that Issuing Bank on or before that date (or, in the case of a release of an L/G, on or before the expiry date specified therein):

(A)

the original of the L/G (including all amendments (if any)) has been returned to that Issuing Bank by the beneficiary or the relevant Borrower; or

(B)

the L/G has been released in writing by the beneficiary; or

(iii)

in relation to an L/G whose terms provide for a reduction of its Face Amount, the conditions of such reduction under the terms of the L/G are without any doubt satisfied; or

(iv)

the beneficiary has unconditionally certified to the Issuing Bank the reduction of the Face Amount of the L/G in writing; or

(v)

after having effected (full or partial) payment pursuant to a demand to the extent it has been reimbursed by the relevant Borrower or on its behalf in the amount required by the terms of this Agreement; or

(vi)

for the avoidance of doubt, such Issuing Bank is otherwise satisfied that it has no further liability under the relevant L/G.

5.6

Handling of Utilisation Requests, issuance of L/Gs

(a)

Each Utilisation Request in respect of an L/G with respect to which the terms of sub-paragraphs (a)(ii) and (a)(vii) of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request) and paragraph (c) of Clause 5.4 (Extension of L/Gs) are complied with:

(i)

will, if received under COGS, be automatically forwarded to the relevant Issuing Bank, and

(ii)

shall, if received by the Agent otherwise than over COGS, be forwarded by the Agent without undue delay to the Issuing Bank

for issuance of the requested L/G. If the terms of sub-paragraphs (a)(ii) and (a)(vii) of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request) and paragraph (c) of Clause 5.4 (Extension of L/Gs) applicable to the issuance of such L/G are not fulfilled the relevant Utilisation Request will not be processed and the Agent shall promptly inform the relevant Borrower accordingly.

(b)

Promptly following receipt of the relevant notification under COGS that a Utilisation Request where it is named as the Issuing Bank has been sent to it or, as the case may be, the Utilisation Request forwarded to it by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii), the Issuing Bank shall determine whether, in respect of such Utilisation Request and the requested L/G, the L/G Approved Criteria and all other requirements set out in this

Clause 5 other than those in sub-paragraphs (a)(ii) and (a)(vii) of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request) and paragraph (c) of Clause 5.4 (Extension of L/Gs) (the "L/G Requirements") are fulfilled.

(c)

Following determination in accordance with paragraph (b), the Issuing Bank shall confirm through COGS (or, if COGS is not available, inform the Agent accordingly) whether:

(i)

the L/G Requirements are fulfilled (and, if the L/G is denominated in an Optional Currency, COGS will automatically (and if COGS is not available, the Agent shall) calculate the Base Currency Amount with respect thereto); or

(ii)

it will not be able to issue the requested L/G at all because all or some of the L/G Requirements are not fulfilled and, if so, which one(s).

(d)

In the event of notification by the Issuing Bank that it will not issue the requested L/G the Agent shall, if such information is not generated by COGS, inform the relevant Borrower and the Borrower shall:

(i)

agree with the Issuing Bank such amendment of the requested L/G as is necessary and possible to enable the Issuing Bank to issue the relevant L/G; and

(ii)

if no agreement can be reached between the Issuing Bank and the Borrower (in particular if the L/G Requirements are not complied with): (A) the Issuing Bank shall not issue the requested L/G; and (B) the Borrower shall promptly withdraw the relevant Utilisation Request.

(e)

The Issuing Bank shall promptly enter into COGS (or, if COGS is not available, inform the Agent of) all changes in respect of a requested L/G agreed with the relevant Borrower pursuant to paragraph (d) above.

5.7

Reports, Correction of bookings

(a)

The Agent will generate under COGS (unless COGS is not available) on each day reports (the "COGS Reports") stating inter alia with respect to the previous day:

(i)

the Base Currency Amount of all outstanding L/Gs as determined for such day; and

(ii)

the aggregate Base Currency Amount of all outstanding L/Gs issued on behalf of the Company;

(iii)

the aggregate Base Currency Amount of all outstanding L/Gs issued in an Optional Currency not being either USD, GBP or CHF; and

(iv)

all relevant information (including the name of the beneficiary of the L/G, the type of L/G, the L/G amount, the date of issuance or prolongation and the initially fixed maturity date or Commercial Lifetime (and if applicable, any prolongation thereof) of such L/G) with respect to any L/G outstanding.

(b)

The Borrowers, the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks may download copies of the COGS Reports for their internal use over COGS (or, if COGS is not available, upon request from the Agent). In the event that the Company, the Agent and/or any Issuing Bank does not agree with any matter contained in the COGS Reports it shall, by no later than 5.00 p.m. on the third Business Day following the date of generation of the

relevant COGS Report, notify the Agent accordingly; provided, however, that the failure to notify the Agent by such third Business Day will not result in the waiver of any right to dispute any matter contained in such COGS Report.

(c)

If the Agent receives a notice pursuant to paragraph (b) that a COGS Report does not properly reflect any booking as it would have to be made pursuant to this Agreement, it shall promptly inform all other Parties who would be affected by any change in the relevant booking and thereafter the relevant Parties shall seek mutual agreement on the relevant corrections and any entries in COGS shall be made or, as the case may be, corrected by the Agent accordingly. In the case that any such correction has an impact on the amount of any fees payable or paid under this Agreement, any such difference shall be taken into account by the Agent in the next notification to the Company and payment to the Lenders pursuant to Clause 11.1 (Commitment fee) or Clause 11.2 (L/G fee).

5.8

Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Borrower may with the approval of the relevant Issuing Bank become a borrower (any such Affiliate, an "Affiliate Borrower") with respect to an L/G.

(b)

The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate Borrower in the Utilisation Request.

(c)

If a Borrower ceases to be a Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 24.3 (Resignation of a Borrower), any Subsidiary of such Borrower that is an Affiliate Borrower shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement and the Borrower is obliged to repay such L/G prior to ceasing to be a Borrower.

(d)

Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an L/G and the relevant borrower is an Affiliate Borrower which is not a party to that document, the relevant Borrower shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

(e)

Any reference in this Agreement or any other Finance Document to a Borrower being under no obligations (whether actual or contingent) as a Borrower under such Finance Document shall be construed to include a reference to any Affiliate of a Borrower being under no obligations under any Finance Document or L/G.

REBASING

6.1

Determination of the Base Currency Amount

On the last Business Day of each calendar quarter (a "Calendar Quarter Date") on which at least one L/G is outstanding under this Agreement which is denominated in an Optional Currency, COGS will automatically and, if COGS is not available, the Agent shall determine the Base Currency Amount of each L/G outstanding by notionally converting the amount of that L/G into the Base Currency on the basis of the relevant exchange rate displayed in COGS in accordance with the COGS Conditions or (if COGS is not available) the Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange on the date of calculation.

6.2

Company's obligation to prepay

(a)

If with respect to a Calendar Quarter Date (each a "Rebasing Day") the aggregate Base Currency Amount of the outstanding L/Gs of an Issuing Bank exceeds its Commitment applicable on that Rebasing Day (the exceeding amount being the "Excess Amount"), the Company must, if requested by the Agent in writing to do so, within 10 Business

Days following such request ensure that a sufficient amount of the outstanding L/Gs are prepaid by the Borrowers (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by providing Cash Cover), in each case to eliminate the Excess Amount.

(b)

If in respect of any Rebasing Day subsequent to a Rebasing Day in respect of which Cash Cover had been provided pursuant to paragraph (a) the Excess Amount has been reduced, the whole or relevant part of the Cash Cover shall be released within five Business Days of the relevant Rebasing Day provided that no Default has occurred which is continuing.

6.3

Notification

The Agent must notify the Company and the Issuing Banks of any relevant Base Currency Amount (and the relevant exchange rate displayed in COGS in accordance with the COGS

Conditions or (if COGS is not available) the applicable Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange) promptly after it is ascertained.

L/GS

7.1

Claims under an L/G

(a)

Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally authorises the relevant Issuing Bank to pay any claim made or purported to be made under an L/G requested by it (or requested by the Company on its behalf) and which appears on its face to be in order (in this Clause 7.1, a "claim") notwithstanding any defences against that claim which are or may be available to it under the law applicable to that L/G and which arise from, or relate to, the underlying transaction.

(b)

Each Borrower shall immediately on demand pay to the Agent for the relevant Issuing Bank an amount equal to the amount of any claim.

(ii)

deals in documents only and will not be concerned with the legality of a claim or any underlying transaction or any available set-off, counterclaim or other defence of any person (including without limitation any defences which arise from, or relate to, the underlying transaction which are or may be available to that Issuing Bank under the law applicable to the relevant L/G).

(d)

The obligations of a Borrower under this Clause will not be affected by:

(i)

the sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of any claim or any other document; or

(ii)

any incapacity of, or limitation on the powers of, any person signing a claim or other document.

7.2

Indemnities

(a)

Each Borrower shall immediately on demand indemnify an Issuing Bank against any cost, loss or liability incurred by that Issuing Bank (otherwise than by reason of that Issuing Bank's gross negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct) in acting as an Issuing Bank under any L/G requested by (or on behalf of) that Borrower.

(b)

The obligations of any Borrower under this Clause will not be affected by any act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any other person) including:

(i)

any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor, any beneficiary under an L/G or any other person;

(ii)

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

(iii)

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, any beneficiary under an L/G 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 beneficiary under an L/G or any other person;

(v)

any amendment (however fundamental) or replacement of a Finance Document consented to by the Company, any L/G or any other document or security;

(vi)

any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document, any L/G or any other document or security; or

(vii)

any insolvency or similar proceedings.

(c)

Neither the Company nor any Borrower shall be entitled to reject payment otherwise due by it pursuant to this Agreement on the basis of the argument that an L/G with respect to which an Issuing Bank claims payment should not have been issued or should not have been issued under its terms by that Issuing Bank pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or applicable law or regulations.

7.3

Rights of contribution

(a)

No Obligor will be entitled to any right of contribution or indemnity from any Finance Party in respect of any payment it may make under this Clause 7.

continue to provide the respective L/G on a bilateral basis on terms and conditions agreed upon between that Issuing Bank, the Company and the relevant Borrower in a separate agreement reasonably satisfactory to that Issuing Bank to be reached no later than on the Termination Date;

(ii)

continue to provide the respective L/G on a bilateral basis following receipt of a Counter Guarantee by no later than the Termination Date; or

(iii)

require that Cash Cover (or such other security which is reasonably satisfactory to that Issuing Bank) is provided by the relevant Borrower (or the Company) with respect to the counterindemnity obligations owed to that Issuing Bank by the relevant Borrower in respect of the outstanding L/Gs issued by that Issuing Bank not later than on the Termination Date.

(c)

Any negotiations between an Issuing Bank, the Company and the relevant Borrower about a bilateral continuation or the terms and conditions and the implementation of the Cash Cover or other Security shall be made between that Issuing Bank and the relevant Borrower directly without involvement of the Agent.

(d)

Each L/G outstanding on the Termination Date shall, in the case of a bilateral continuation of that L/G pursuant to paragraph (b) above, for all purposes of this Agreement cease to be treated as an L/G issued under this Agreement as of the Termination Date provided however that unless otherwise agreed by the relevant Issuing Bank the fees set out in Clauses 11.2 (L/G fee) and 11.5 (Issuance and Administration Fee) shall continue to be payable but shall be paid directly to (and calculated by) the relevant Issuing Bank instead of the Agent. In addition, the fees set out in Clause 11.2 (L/G fee) shall be reduced as set out in paragraph (a) of Clause 11.2 (L/G fee).

(ii)

any Lender claims indemnification from the Company under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) or Clause 13.1 (Increased costs); or

any Lender is a Defaulting Lender;

(b)

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

The Company may, in the circumstances set out in paragraph (a) above, on three Business Days' prior notice to the Agent and the Lender (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders may agree), replace that Lender by requiring that Lender to (and, to the extent permitted by law, that Lender shall) assign and transfer by way of assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) pursuant to Clause 23 (Changes to the Lenders) all (and not part only) of its Available Commitment under this Agreement to a Lender or other bank, financial institution, trust, fund or other entity selected by the Company which confirms its willingness to assume and does assume all the obligations of the transferring Lender in accordance with Clause 23 (Changes to the Lenders).

the Lender shall only be obliged to assign and transfer its rights and obligations pursuant to paragraph (d) above once it is satisfied that it has complied with all necessary "know your customer" or other similar checks under all applicable laws and regulations in relation to that transfer.

(f)

A Lender shall perform the checks described in paragraph 9.6(e)(iv) above as soon as reasonably practicable following delivery of a notice referred to in paragraph (d) above and shall notify the Agent and the Company when it is satisfied that it has complied with those checks.

9.7

Mandatory repayment and cancellation of Lenders

If on the date falling six months before the earliest FATCA Application Date for any payment by a Party to a Lender (or to the Agent for the account of that Lender), that Lender is not a FATCA Exempt Party and, in the opinion of that Lender (acting reasonably), that Party will, as a consequence, be required to make a FATCA Deduction from a payment to that Lender (or to the Agent for the account of that Lender) on or after that FATCA Application Date (a "FATCA Event"):

(a)

that Lender shall, reasonably promptly after that date, notify the Agent of that FATCA Event and the relevant FATCA Application Date;

(h)

Any prepayment of an outstanding L/G shall be made in the manner described in paragraph (b) of Clause 8 (Repayment) and shall be subject to the continued payment of the L/G fees and administration fees as further specified in Clause 8 (Repayment).

10.

CASH COVER

(a)

Where any Borrower or the Company is obliged to provide "Cash Cover" for an L/G to the Agent or an Issuing Bank under this Agreement, cash cover is provided if that Borrower or the Company pays an amount in the currency in which that L/G is denominated to an interest-bearing account in the name of that Borrower or the Company, as the case may be, and the following conditions are met:

(i)

the account is with the Agent or with an Affiliate of the Agent (if the Cash Cover is to be provided to the Agent) or with the relevant Issuing Bank or other party agreed by the Issuing Bank (if the Cash Cover is to be provided to that Issuing Bank);

(ii)

until no amount is or may be outstanding under that L/G, withdrawals from the account may only be made to pay the relevant Issuing Bank (or Agent, if applicable) amounts due and payable to it under this Agreement in respect of that L/G, subject to paragraph (c) below; and

(iii)

that Borrower or, as the case may be, the Company has executed a security document over that account, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Agent or the relevant Issuing Banks (as applicable) with which that account is held, creating a first ranking security interest over that account for the sole benefit of the relevant Issuing Bank,

and the account will bear interest at a rate equal to: for GBP, ▇▇▇▇▇ (Sterling Over Night Index Average), for USD, FFE (Feds Funds Effective), for EUR, EONIA (Euro Overnight Index Average) and for CHF, SARON (Swiss Overnight Index Average) (in each case as determined by the Issuing Bank) for deposits in that currency for one month (if that amount is placed on a one month time deposit), or upon the request of the Agent or any of the Issuing Banks the applicable Overnight Libor Rate for the relevant currency (GBP, USD, EUR or CHF), or otherwise (if it is not or if the deposit is in a currency other than GBP, USD, EUR or CHF) at a normal commercial rate or as otherwise agreed between the Company or the relevant Borrower with the Agent or the relevant Issuing Bank (as applicable).

(b)

Where Cash Cover has been provided by a Borrower or the Company:

(i)

for an L/G and that L/G is subsequently repaid or prepaid (other than by the provision of Cash Cover), the Agent or the Issuing Banks (as applicable) shall repay to the relevant Borrower the Cash Cover held by it in an amount equal to the amount of such repayment or prepayment (and, if that L/G is denominated in an Optional Currency, the amount repaid or prepaid converted into the Base Currency at the relevant exchange rate displayed in COGS in accordance with the COGS Conditions or (if COGS is not available) the Agent's Spot Rate of Exchange on the date of repayment or prepayment) and shall, if the Borrower requests, execute such documentation as is necessary to discharge any security interest over the account referred to above; or

(ii)

pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Company's obligation to prepay) and subsequently the amount by which the aggregate amount of the Base Currency Amount of all L/Gs outstanding exceeds the Total Commitments is reduced to an amount which is lower than the amount of the Cash Cover provided to the Agent, the Agent shall repay to the relevant Borrower or the Company the Cash Cover held by it in an amount equal to the difference and shall, if the Company requests, execute such documentation as is necessary to discharge any security interest over the account referred to above,

in each case if no Event of Default has occurred which is continuing.

(c)

As long as no Event of Default has occurred which is continuing, interest paid on the Cash Cover shall be released at any time to the Company or the Borrower providing the Cash Cover (as the case may be).

(d)

For the avoidance of doubt, any Cash Cover relating to an L/G shall be released at its Maturity Date, provided that the relevant Issuing Bank has not received any demand of payment in respect of such L/G or, if so received, has been reimbursed by the Company or the relevant Borrower.

11.

FEES

11.1

Commitment fee

(a)

The Company shall pay to the Agent (for the account of each Lender) a fee in the Base Currency computed at the rate of 35 per cent. of the then applicable L/G fee on that Lender's Available Commitment for the Availability Period.

(b)

Subject to the terms of this Clause 11.1, the accrued commitment fee is payable in arrears for each successive period of three Months ending on 31 March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December and any shorter period ending on 31 March 2018, on the last day of the Availability Period and, if cancelled in full, in respect of the cancelled amount of the relevant Lender's Commitment at the time the cancellation is effective.

(c)

The commitment fee shall be calculated by the Agent. The Agent shall notify the Company and the relevant Lenders in writing of the aggregate amount of all such commitment fees owed to the relevant Lender within five Business Days after the end of each period set out in paragraph (b) of this Clause 11.1. The Company shall pay the commitment fee to the Agent (for the account of each Lender) not later than on the fifth Business Day following receipt by the Company of the notification from the Agent.

(d)

No commitment fee is payable to the Agent (for the account of a Lender) on any Available Commitment of that Lender for any day on which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

11.2

L/G fee

(a)

Each Borrower shall pay to the Agent (for the account of each relevant Issuing Bank) an L/G fee in the Base Currency (computed at the rate equal to the L/G Fee Rate) on the outstanding amount of each L/G requested by it for the period from the date of issue of that L/G until its Maturity Date. For the avoidance of doubt, such fee shall, if not otherwise agreed between the relevant Issuing Bank and the Company (or the relevant Borrower) be reduced to 0.55 per cent. per annum in relation to and beginning at the time any L/G has been repaid by way of Cash Cover or a Counter Guarantee prior to its Maturity Date.

(b)

The accrued L/G fee on an L/G shall be payable in arrears in respect of each period of three months ending on 31 March, 30 June, 30 September and 31 December (or any shorter periods ending on 31 March 2018, the Termination Date, the date on which the Commitments of a Lender under this Agreement are cancelled in full or the date on which the Total Commitments under this Agreement are cancelled in full) (each a "Calculation Period").

(c)

The L/G fee shall be calculated by the Agent. The Agent shall notify the Company and the relevant Issuing Banks in writing of the aggregate amount of all such L/G Fees owed to the relevant Issuing Bank within five Business Days after the end of each Calculation Period. The relevant Borrowers shall pay the respective amounts to the Agent for distribution to the relevant Issuing Banks not later than on the fifth Business Day following the receipt by the Company of the notification from the Agent.

11.3

Arrangement and participation fee

The Company shall pay to the Arranger an arrangement fee and a participation fee in the amount and at the times agreed in the Mandate Letter.

11.4

Agency fee

The Company shall pay to the Agent (for its own account) an agency fee in the amount and at the times agreed in the Agency Fee Letter.

11.5

Issuance and Administration Fee

Each Borrower shall pay to the relevant Issuing Bank (for its own account) an issuance and administration fee in respect of each L/G requested by it and issued by that Issuing Bank in the amount of EUR 50 per issued L/G or as otherwise agreed between that Issuing Bank and the Company.

11.6

Default interest and lump sum damages

(a)

If an Obligor fails to pay any amount (other than default interest) payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, default interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which complies with the rate set out in paragraph 288(2) of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch). If an Obligor fails to pay default interest payable by it under the Finance Documents on its due date, lump sum damages (pauschalierter Schadensersatz) shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which complies with the rate

set out in paragraph 288(2) of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch). In the case of lump sum damages, the relevant Obligor shall be free to prove that no damages have arisen or that damages have not arisen in the asserted amount and any Finance Party shall be entitled to prove that further damages have arisen. Any interest or lump sum accruing under this Clause 11.6 shall be immediately payable by the relevant Obligor on demand by the Agent.

(b)

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the relevant Obligor of the determination of a rate of default interest under this Agreement.

11.7

Minimum Fee Rates

(a)

The fee rates provided for in this Agreement, including this Clause 11 (Fees) are minimum fee rates.

(b)

When entering into this Agreement, the parties have assumed that the fees payable at the rates set out in this Agreement are not and will not become subject to the Swiss Federal Withholding Tax. Notwithstanding that the parties do not anticipate that any fee payment under this Agreement is or will be subject to the Swiss Federal Withholding Tax, they agree that, in the event that Swiss Federal Withholding Tax should be imposed on fee payments by a Borrower and should it be unlawful for such Borrower to comply with paragraph (c) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) for any reason (where this would otherwise be required by the terms of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up), taking into account the exclusions set out in paragraph (g) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up)), the payment of such fees due by such Borrower shall be increased to an amount which (after making any deduction of the Non-Refundable Portion (as defined below) of the Swiss Federal Withholding Tax) results in a payment to each Finance Party entitled to such payment of an amount equal to the payment which would have been due had no deduction of Swiss Federal Withholding Tax been required. For this purpose, the Swiss Federal Withholding Tax shall be calculated on the full grossed-up interest amount.

(c)

For the purposes of this Clause, "Non-Refundable Portion" shall mean Swiss Federal Withholding Tax at the standard rate (being, as at the date hereof, 35%) unless a tax ruling issued by the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (SFTA) confirms that, in relation to a specific Finance Party based on an applicable double tax treaty, the Non-Refundable Portion is a specified lower rate in which case such lower rate shall be applied in relation to such Finance Party and each Borrower shall provide to the Agent the documents required by law or applicable double taxation treaties for the Finance Parties to claim a refund of any Swiss Federal Withholding Tax so deducted.

In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 12.2(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and 12.8(e) below, or the UK tax documentation required under Section 12.2(j)(ii)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(A)

any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such U.S. Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be reasonably requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender

becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such U.S. Borrower or the Agent), duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 or successor form certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B)

(I)

duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN/W-8BEN-E establishing any exemption or reduction in payments made under any Finance Document;

(II)

duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(III)

in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Clause 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a "bank" within the meaning of Clause 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a "10 percent shareholder" of such U.S. Borrower within the meaning of Clause 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a "controlled foreign corporation" described in Clause 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a "U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate") and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN/W-8BEN-E; or

(IV)

to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN/W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit H-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as may be required; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(C)

any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such U.S. Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such U.S. Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit such U.S. Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii)

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g)

A Borrower shall not be required to make an increased payment to a specific Lender under paragraph (c) above by reason of a Tax Deduction by a Borrower on account of Swiss Federal Withholding Tax if the number of Lenders under this Agreement that are not Swiss Qualifying Banks exceeds 10 (ten) solely because such Lender (i) has failed to comply with its obligations under Clause 23 (Changes to Lenders) or (ii) ceased to be a Swiss Qualifying Bank other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Finance Party under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration or application of) any law or any published practice or concession of any relevant taxing authority.

(A)

a Treaty Lender with respect to a UK Borrower which becomes a Party on the day on which this Agreement is entered into that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in Part 2 of Schedule 1 (The Original Parties); and

(B)

a New Lender or an Increase Lender that is a Treaty Lender with respect to a UK Borrower and that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall confirm its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in the Transfer Certificate or Increase Confirmation (as applicable) which it executes,

and, having done so, that Lender shall be under no obligation pursuant to sub-paragraph (i) above.

(i)

a Borrower making a payment to that Lender has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Lender; or

(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:

(A)

is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or Clause 11.7 (Minimum Fee Rates);

(B)

would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or Clause 11.7 (Minimum Fee Rates) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in paragraph (d), (e) or (g) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or in paragraph (b) of Clause 11.7 (Minimum Fee Rates) applied;

(C)

which relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; or

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 and utilised 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. If a Finance Party makes a payment to an Obligor pursuant to this Clause 12.4 in connection with a Tax Credit, the Obligor, upon the request of the Finance Party, shall repay to the Finance Party such amount that was paid pursuant to Clause 12.4 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental or taxing authority) in the event that the Finance Party loses the benefit of, or has to repay to such governmental or taxing authority, such Tax Credit.

12.5

Lender Status Confirmation

Each Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the Transfer Certificate or Increase Confirmation which it executes on becoming a Party, and for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to any Obligor, which of the following categories it falls in with respect to each relevant Borrower:

(a)

not a Qualifying Lender;

(b)

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

(c)

a Treaty Lender.

If a New Lender or Increase Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Clause 12.5, then such New Lender or Increase 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 Company). For the avoidance of doubt, a Transfer Certificate or Increase Confirmation shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 12.5.

12.6

Stamp taxes

The Company shall pay and, within five Business Days of demand, indemnify each Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability that Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document.

12.7

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 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 (b)(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 12.7 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 the person who is treated as making the supply or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules (as provided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevant member state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member state of the European Union)) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with section 43 of the United Kingdom Value Added

Tax Act 1994) so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time or the relevant member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be).

(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.

12.8

FATCA Information

(a)

Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party shall within ten 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 as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA; and

(iii)

supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.

(b)

If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not, or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.

(c)

Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and paragraph (a)(iii) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

(i)

any law or regulation;

(ii)

any fiduciary duty; or

(iii)

any duty of confidentiality.

(d)

If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i)or (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 U.S. 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 U.S. Tax Obligor and the relevant Lender is an Original Lender, the date of this Agreement;

(ii)

where a Borrower is a U.S. Tax Obligor on a date on which any other Lender becomes a Party as a Lender, that date;

(iii)

the date a new U.S. Tax Obligor accedes as a Borrower; or

(iv)

where a Borrower is not a U.S. Tax Obligor, the date of a request from the Agent,

supply to the Agent:

(A)

a withholding certificate on Form W-8, Form W-9 or any other relevant form; or

(B)

any withholding statement or other document, authorisation or waiver as the Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation.

(f)

The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) above to the relevant Borrower.

(g)

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

(h)

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

12.9

FATCA Deduction

(a)

Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(b)

Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Company and the Agent and the Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

13.

INCREASED COSTS

13.1

Increased costs

(a)

Subject to Clause 13.3 (Exceptions) the Company shall pay for the account of a Finance Party the amount of any Increased Costs incurred by that Finance Party or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation,

administration or application of) any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any law or regulation in each case made after the date of this Agreement; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be have been introduced after the date of this Agreement, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

(b)

In this Agreement "Increased Costs" means:

(i)

a reduction in the rate of return from the Facility or on a Finance Party's (or its Affiliate's) overall capital;

(ii)

an additional or increased cost; or

(iii)

a reduction of any amount due and payable under any Finance Document,

which is incurred or suffered by a Finance Party or any of its Affiliates to the extent that it is attributable to that Finance Party having entered into its Commitment or funding or performing its obligations under any Finance Document. Such amounts shall be determined in good faith consistent with similarly situated customers of the applicable Finance Party under agreements having provisions similar to this Clause 13.1 after consideration of such factors as such Finance Party then reasonably determines to be relevant.

13.2

Increased cost claims

(a)

A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 13.1 (Increased costs) shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Company.

(b)

A certificate of the affected Finance Party setting forth, in reasonable detail, the basis and calculation of the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Finance Party or its Affiliates, as the case may be, as specified in Clauses 13.1(a) or (b) shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay, or cause the other Borrowers to pay, such Finance Party, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

13.3

Exceptions

(a)

Clause 13.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is:

(i)

attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by an Obligor;

(ii)

attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party;

(iii)

compensated for by Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) but was not so compensated solely because any of the exclusions in paragraph (b) of Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) applied);

(iv)

attributable to the wilful breach by the relevant Finance Party or its Affiliates of any law or regulation;

(v)

incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Finance Party notifies the Company of the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Finance Party's intention to claim compensation therefore; provided further that, if the circumstance giving rise to such Increased Costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof; or

(vi)

attributable to any Bank Levy

(b)

In this Clause 13.3, a reference to a "Tax Deduction" has the same meaning given to the term in Clause 12.1 (Definitions).

14.

OTHER INDEMNITIES

14.1

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;

(ii)

obtaining or enforcing an order, judgment or award in relation to any litigation or arbitration proceedings,

a Utilisation (or part of a Utilisation) not being prepaid in accordance with a notice of prepayment given by a Borrower or the Company,

provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Finance Party, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgement to have resulted from any dispute solely among the Finance Parties (not arising as a result of any act or omission by any member of the Group) other than claims against the Agent or any Issuing Bank or any Arranger in its capacity as, or in fulfilling its role as, the Agent or an Issuing Bank or an Arranger or any similar role under this Agreement.

14.3

Indemnity to the Agent

15.

MITIGATION BY THE LENDERS

17.

GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

17.1

Guarantee (Garantie) and indemnity (Ausfallhaftung)

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally (but subject to any limitations set out in any Accession Letter by which such Guarantor becomes a party hereto) jointly and severally (gesamtschuldnerisch):

(a)

guarantees (garantiert) by way of an independent payment obligation (selbständiges Zahlungsversprechen) to each Finance Party to pay to that Finance Party any amount of principal, interest, costs, expenses or other amount owed by an Obligor under or in connection with the Finance Documents that has not been fully and irrevocably paid by a Borrower or the Company; the payment shall be due (fällig) within five Business Days of a written demand by a Finance Party (or the Agent on its behalf) stating the sum demanded from that Guarantor and that such sum is an amount of principal, interest, costs, expenses or other amount owed by an Obligor under or in connection with the Finance Documents that has not been fully and irrevocably paid by a Borrower or the Company; and

(b)

undertakes vis-à-vis each Finance Party to indemnify (schadlos halten) that Finance Party against any cost, loss or liability suffered by that Finance Party if any obligation

of a Borrower or the Company under or in connection with any Finance Document (except for any cost, loss or liability directly caused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Finance Party) or any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal. The amount of the cost, loss or liability shall be equal to the amount which that Finance Party would otherwise have been entitled to recover (Ersatz des positiven Interesses) and that claim shall be due (fällig) within five Business Days of a written demand by that Finance Party (or the Agent on its behalf).

For the avoidance of doubt this guarantee and indemnity does not constitute a guarantee upon first demand (Garantie auf erstes Anfordern) and, in particular, receipt of such written demand shall not preclude any rights and/or defences the Guarantor may have with respect to any payment requested by a Finance Party (or the Agent on its behalf) under this guarantee and indemnity.

17.2

Continuing and independent guarantee and indemnity

(a)

This guarantee and indemnity is independent and separate from the obligations of any Borrower and is a continuing guarantee and indemnity which will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Borrower under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

(b)

The guarantee and indemnity shall extend to any additional obligations of a Borrower resulting from any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement or replacement of any Finance Documents, including without limitation any extension of or increase in any facility or the addition of a new facility under any Finance Document.

(c)

Subject to Clause 17.3 (Reinstatement) below, at such time as both (i) the Commitments have expired or been irrevocably terminated and (ii) all L/Gs have been irrevocably repaid in full as set out in Clause 8 (Repayment) of this Agreement and any other amounts outstanding under the Finance Documents have been irrevocably discharged in full, all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity) shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any person.

17.3

Reinstatement

If any payment by an Obligor or any discharge given by a Finance Party (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor 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 each Obligor shall continue 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 Guarantor, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred.

17.4

Excluded defences

(a)

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which relates to the principal obligation (or purported obligation) of any Borrower and which would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 17, including any personal defences of any Borrower (Einreden des Hauptschuldners) or any right of revocation (Anfechtung) or set-off

(Aufrechnung) (excluding any Tax Deduction permitted by Clause 12 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities)) of any Borrower.

(b)

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 are independent from any other security or guarantee which may have been or will be given to the Finance Parties. In particular, the obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 17 will not be affected by any of the following:

(i)

the release of, or any time (Stundung), waiver or consent granted to, any other Obligor from or in respect of its obligations under or in connection with any Finance Document;

(ii)

(iii)

any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or a deterioration of the financial condition of any other Obligor; or

(iv)

any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any other Obligor under any Finance Document.

(c)

For the avoidance of doubt nothing in this Clause 17 shall preclude any defences that any Guarantor (in its capacity as Guarantor only) may have against a Finance Party that the guarantee and indemnity does not constitute its legal, valid, binding or enforceable obligations.

17.5

Immediate recourse

No Finance Party will be required to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 17. This applies irrespective of any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

17.6

Appropriations

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

(a)

refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

(b)

hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any Guarantor's liability under this Clause 17.

For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 17.6 shall be construed as creating a liability for a Borrower for the amounts which may be or become payable by the other Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents.

17.7

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, no Guarantor will 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 17:

(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 exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or

For purposes of calculations under this Clause 20.2, prior to the consummation of the Bengal Acquisition (or until the date that is 90 days after the termination of the Bengal Acquisition Agreement), Consolidated Indebtedness shall not include Specified Senior Notes Indebtedness; provided that (i) the release of the proceeds of the Specified Senior Note Indebtedness to the Company and its Subsidiaries is contingent upon the consummation of the Bengal Acquisition and, pending such release, such proceeds are held in escrow (and, if the Bengal Acquisition Agreement is terminated prior to the consummation of the Bengal Acquisition or if the Bengal Acquisition is otherwise not consummated by the date specified in the Specified Senior Notes Indenture, such proceeds shall be promptly applied to satisfy and discharge all obligations of the Company and its Subsidiaries in respect of the Specified Senior Notes Indebtedness) or (ii) the Specified Senior Notes Indenture contains a "special mandatory redemption" provision (or other similar provision) or otherwise permits the Specified Senior Notes Indebtedness to be redeemed or prepaid if the Bengal Acquisition is not consummated by the date specified in the Specified Senior Notes Indenture (and if the Bengal Acquisition Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms prior to the consummation of the Bengal Acquisition or the Bengal Acquisition is otherwise not consummated by the date specified in the Specified Senior Notes Indenture, the Specified Senior Notes Indebtedness is so redeemed or prepaid within 90 days of such termination or such specified date, as the case may be).

For the purposes of calculating Consolidated EBITDA and/or Consolidated Interest Expense for any Relevant Period:

(i)

if at any time during such Relevant Period the Company or any Financial Subsidiary shall have made any Material Disposal, the Consolidated EBITDA for such Relevant Period shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) attributable to the property that is the subject of such Material Disposal for such Relevant Period or increased by an amount equal to Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) attributable thereto for such Relevant Period; and

(ii)

if during such Relevant Period the Company or any Financial Subsidiary shall have made a Material Acquisition, Consolidated EBITDA for such Relevant Period shall be calculated after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis as if such Material Acquisition occurred on the first day of such Relevant Period; and

(iii)

CHANGES TO THE LENDERS

23.1

Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

No Lender may transfer or assign any of its rights or obligations under any Finance Document, except that, subject to this Clause 23, a Lender (the "Existing Lender") may:

(a)

assign any of its rights; or

(b)

assign and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) 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 investing into L/G facilities and issuing of L/Gs (other than an Ineligible Institution) (the "New Lender").

23.2

Conditions of assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme)

(a)

The consent of the Company is required for an assignment or an assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) by an Existing Lender, unless the assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) is:

(i)

to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; and such Affiliate of a Lender is a Swiss Qualifying Bank;

(ii)

an Approved Fund, provided such transfer does not lead to a violation of the Swiss Ten Non-Qualifying Bank Creditor Rule; or

(iii)

(iii) made at a time when an Event of Default under Clause 22.1 (Non payment), Clause 22.6 (Insolvency) and/or Clause 22.7 (Insolvency proceedings) is continuing.

(b)

The consent of the Company to an assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) must not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The consent of the Company is not deemed to be unreasonably withheld if the proposed assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) would lead to a breach of the Swiss Ten Non-Qualifying Bank Creditor Rule. The Finance Parties shall have the right to make assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) in relation to this Agreement to up to 10 (ten) New Lenders that are not a Swiss Qualifying Bank and the Company and each Swiss Borrower shall ensure that the acceptance of up to 10 (ten) New Lenders that are not a Swiss Qualifying Bank under this Agreement would not cause a breach of the Swiss Twenty Non-Qualifying Bank Creditor Rule at any time. The Company will be deemed to have given its consent (10) ten Business Days after the Existing Lender has requested it in writing unless consent is expressly refused by the Company within that time.

(c)

An assignment will only be effective on:

(i)

receipt by the Agent 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 was an Original Lender and, with respect to a Swiss Borrower, if the New Lender represents in the Transfer Certificate to the Agent and each Obligor whether or not it is a Swiss Qualifying Bank; 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.

(d)

An assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) will only be effective if the procedure set out in Clause 23.5 (Procedure for assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme)) is complied with.

(e)

If:

(i)

a Lender assigns or assigns and transfers by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) 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, assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) 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 12 (Tax gross-up and Indemnities) or Clause 13 (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, assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) or change had not occurred. This paragraph (e) shall not apply in relation to Clause 12 (Tax gross-up and Indemnities), to a Treaty Lender that has included a confirmation of its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (j)(ii)(B) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) if the Borrower making the payment has not made a Borrower DTTP Filing in respect of that Treaty Lender.

(f)

Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate 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 assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) 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.

(g)

The New Lender agrees, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate, that its identity and other information regarding its status as to whether or not it is a Swiss Qualifying Bank may be disclosed to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration (if the latter so requests).

23.3

Assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) fee

The New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) a fee of EUR 3,000.

23.4

Limitation of responsibility of Existing Lender

(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:

(i)

accept a re-assignment or a re-assignment and re-transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or assigned and transferred by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme') under this Clause 23; 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.

23.5

Procedure for assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme)

(a)

Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 23.2 (Conditions of assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme)) an assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Agent shall, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Transfer Certificate.

(b)

The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate 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 transfer to such New Lender.

(c)

On the Transfer Date:

(i)

to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to assign and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) 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 Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would

100

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 assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) and to that extent the Agent, the 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".

23.6

Copy of Transfer Certificate or Increase Confirmation to Company

23.7

Security over Lenders' rights

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 23, each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time assign, charge, pledge or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation any assignment, charge, pledge or other Security to secure obligations to a federal reserve or central bank except that no such assignment, charge, pledge or Security shall:

(a)

release a Lender from any of its obligations under the Finance Documents or substitute the beneficiary of the relevant assignment, charge, pledge or Security for the Lender as a party to any of the Finance Documents; or

(b)

require any payments to be made by an Obligor other than or in excess of, or grant to any person any more extensive rights than, those required to be made or granted to the relevant Lender under the Finance Documents.

23.8

The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of any Borrower, shall maintain a copy of each Transfer Certificate, Increase Confirmation, or an assignment or assignment and transfer by assumption of contract (Vertragsübernahme) delivered to it and a register for the recording of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and the Utilisations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (for the purposes of this provision, the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Obligors, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Obligors and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Subsidiary become an Additional Guarantor. That Subsidiary or Domestic Subsidiary shall become an Additional Guarantor if:

The Agent shall accept a Resignation Letter and notify the Company and the Lenders of its acceptance, provided that:

Repetition of Representations

Delivery of an Accession Letter constitutes confirmation by the relevant Subsidiary that the Repeated Representations are true and correct in all material respects in relation to it as at the date of delivery as if made by reference to the facts and circumstances then existing, except that to the extent that such representation or warranty expressly relates to an earlier date, such representation or warranty is true and correct as of such earlier date.

Each Lender shall (in proportion to its share of the Total Commitments or, if the Total Commitments are then zero, to its share of the Total Commitments immediately prior to their reduction to zero) indemnify the Agent, within three Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the Agent (otherwise than by reason of the Agent's gross negligence, bad faith or wilful misconduct) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the Agent has been reimbursed by an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document).

(c)

If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above within 30 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Agent (after consultation with the Company) may appoint a successor Agent acting through an office in Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, the United Kingdom or the U.S.

(g)

The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) above) if on or after the date which is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:

and (in each case) the relevant Lender has been advised by US tax counsel of international standing 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 that Lender, by notice to the Agent, requires it to resign.

25.12

Replacement of the Agent

(a)

After consultation with the Company, the Majority Lenders may, by giving 30 days' notice to the Agent (or, at any time the Agent is an Impaired Agent, by giving any shorter notice determined by the Majority Lenders) replace the Agent by appointing a successor Agent acting through an office in Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland, the United Kingdom or the U.S.

108

(b)

(c)

The appointment of the successor Agent shall take effect on the date specified in the notice from the Majority Lenders to the retiring Agent.

If information is received by another division or department of the Agent, it may be treated as confidential to that division or department and the Agent shall not be deemed to have notice of it.

25.14

Relationship with the Lenders

(a)

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 30.6 (Electronic communication)) electronic mail address and/or any other information required to enable the sending and receipt 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, department and officer by that Lender for the purposes of Clause 30.2 (Addresses) and paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 30.6 (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.

109

25.15

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 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;

(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 and/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 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.

25.16

Agent's Management Time

Any amount payable to the Agent under Clause 14.3 (Indemnity to the Agent), Clause 16 (Costs and Expenses) and Clause 25.10 (Lenders' indemnity to the Agent) shall include the cost of utilising the Agent's management time or other resources and will be calculated on the basis of such reasonable daily or hourly rates as the Agent may notify to the Company and the Lenders, and is in addition to any fee paid or payable to the Agent under Clause 11 (Fees).

25.17

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.

25.18

US Withholding

To the extent required by any applicable U. S. laws, the Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and (unless caused by gross negligence or wilful misconduct on the part of the Agent) any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Agent by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service or any other U. S. Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from,

SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

27.1

Payments to Finance Parties

Unless otherwise provided for in Clause 27.6 (Loss Sharing in respect of L/Gs) or Clause 27.7 (Sharing of Recoveries / Adjustment of Loss Sharing), if a Finance Party (a "Recovering Finance Party") receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 28 (Payment mechanics) 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 28 (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 28.6 (Partial payments).

27.2

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) in accordance with Clause 28.6 (Partial payments).

27.3

Recovering Finance Party's rights

111

(a)

On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 27.2 (Redistribution of payments), the Recovering Finance Party shall be entitled to receive by way of assignment the rights of the Finance Parties to the extent they have shared in the redistribution.

(b)

If and to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on its rights under paragraph (a) above, the relevant Obligor shall be liable to the Recovering Finance Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.

27.4

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 Finance Party which has received a share of the relevant Sharing Payment pursuant to Clause 27.2 (Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for 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); and

(b)

that Recovering Finance Party's rights of assignment in respect of any reimbursement shall be cancelled and the relevant Obligor will be liable to the reimbursing Finance Party for the amount so reimbursed and the Recovering Finance Party shall re-assign any claims assigned to it pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 27.3 (Recovering Finance Party's rights).

27.5

Exceptions

(a)

This Clause 27 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.

27.6

Loss Sharing in respect of L/Gs

(a)

In the event a Borrower or, as the case may be, the Obligors do not reimburse and indemnify a Lender (an "Entitled Lender") with respect to any amount claimed in respect of an L/G in accordance with paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) and Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity) and

(i)

it cannot obtain satisfaction with respect to such amount from any Cash Cover obtained by it; and

(ii)

no Counter Guarantee or any other form of Security had, in each case, been provided by or on behalf of the Company or the respective Borrower in respect

112

of that amount (in whole or in part) which had been accepted by the relevant Entitled Lender in its sole discretion (such remaining amount the "Loss") such Entitled Lender shall receive from the Lenders compensation for its Loss in accordance with this Clause 27.6.

(b)

An Entitled Lender shall have the right to demand payment from each Lender of the Indemnified Loss Amount (as defined below) determined by the Agent in accordance with paragraph (c) below only

(i)

if the Facility has been cancelled by notice of the Agent pursuant to Clause 22.15 (Acceleration) or the Facility has been automatically accelerated pursuant to Clause 22.16 (Acceleration for Insolvency) and since such notice of the Agent or automatic acceleration a period of six (6) months has lapsed; or

(ii)

if in the event that following the occurrence of an Event of Default due to the default of a Borrower vis-à-vis the Entitled Lender to fulfil its obligations pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) in respect of an L/G no notice pursuant to Clause 22.15 (Acceleration) has been submitted by the Agent and no automatic acceleration has occurred pursuant to Clause 22.16 (Acceleration for Insolvency) and following such Event of Default a period of three (3) months has lapsed,

(the time period referred to in sub-paragraph (i) and (ii) each the "First Loss Determination Period").

(c)

Each Entitled Lender shall notify the Agent not later than on the fifteenth Business Day preceding the end of the relevant First Loss Determination Period about the amount of any Loss suffered by it until such date (taking into account any recoveries received by then from a Borrower or the Guarantors or any third party by way of payment, set-off, enforcement of any collateral or otherwise) (the "First Loss Determination Date").

(d)

The Agent shall not later than on the tenth Business Day preceding the end of the relevant First Loss Determination Period determine the aggregate amount of all Losses suffered by all Entitled Lenders as notified to it (the "Total Loss Amount").

(e)

The Agent shall then, based on the Total Loss Amount, determine the amount which each Entitled Lender may claim from or pay to each other Lender (including, as the case may be, other Entitled Lenders) (the "Indemnified Loss Amount") and notify all Lenders accordingly not later than on the third Business Day preceding the end of the relevant First Loss Determination Period (the "First Sharing Date") and the Lenders shall then make payments of the Indemnified Loss Amounts as instructed by the Agent. The Indemnified Loss Amount shall be the amount which has to be received, or, as the case may be, paid by each Lender (including Entitled Lenders) to each Entitled Lender so that following the payment of all Indemnified Loss Amounts between the Lenders the proportion of the sum of the amounts paid by each individual Lender hereunder and the Loss of such Lender (after deducting the aggregate Indemnified Loss Amounts to be paid to the relevant Lender) to its respective Commitments is equal to the proportion of the Total Loss Amount to the Total Commitments (the "Loss Quota") (or, if the Commitments are then zero, such Commitments prior to their reduction / cancellation to zero).

(f)

Each Lender shall on the First Sharing Date pay the Indemnified Loss Amounts to be paid by it to any Entitled Lender only against assignment by the relevant Entitled Lender of a corresponding portion of its claim against the relevant Borrower pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) and the Guarantors pursuant to Clause 17 (Guarantee and Indemnity).

113

(g)

Save for manifest error the determination of the Total Loss Amount and the Indemnified Loss Amounts by the Agent shall be binding for all Lenders.

27.7

Sharing of Recoveries / Adjustment of Loss Sharing

(a)

If at any time following the First Loss Determination Date a Lender (i) receives payment from any Obligor or any receiver over the assets of such Obligor (a

"Recovering Lender") by way of set-off or otherwise in respect of any amounts due from a Borrower under paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) in respect of an L/G (the "Recovered Amount") or (ii) incurs any (further) Loss (a "Loss Lender"), then such Lender shall promptly notify the Agent. The Agent shall semi-annually following the First Sharing Date and as long as any Lender continues to receive Recovered Amounts or incur Losses (each such date a "Subsequent Loss Determination Date") determine the amounts to be paid by each of the Recovering Lenders to the other Lenders as a proportion of the Recovered Amounts realised until the relevant Subsequent Loss Determination Date or the amounts to be paid by each of the Lender to the Loss Lender as a proportion of the Loss incurred until the relevant Subsequent Loss Determination Date, in each case to equalize the Loss Quota of all Lenders as of the relevant Subsequent Loss Determination Date (the "Loss Sharing Payment").

(b)

The Agent shall inform the Lenders in due course following each Subsequent Loss Determination Date about any Loss Sharing Payment which shall then be made available by the Recovering Lenders or the Lenders to the Agent for distribution to the Lenders or the Loss Lender, respectively, within three (3) Business Days of such notification.

(c)

To the extent that amounts received or recovered by a Recovering Lender resulted in the satisfaction of a Recovering Lender's claim under paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) in respect of an L/G, but are allocated in accordance with paragraph (a) to another Lender, the latter shall assign to the Recovering Lender the claims (or the part thereof) to which the amount is allocated. Each Lender shall on the Subsequent Loss Determination Date pay its portion of the incurred Loss to any Loss Lender only against assignment by the relevant Loss Lender of a corresponding portion of its claim against the Borrower pursuant to paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) in respect of an L/G.

(d)

If any part of the Loss Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Lender becomes repayable and is repaid by such Recovering Lender, then each Party which has received a share of such Loss Sharing Payment pursuant to paragraph (a) shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for account of such Recovering Lender an amount equal to its share of such Loss Sharing Payment together with its proportionate share of any interest or other sum paid to a Borrower or any other Obligor by the Recovering Lender in respect of the Loss Sharing Payment and such Recovering Lender shall re-assign to the relevant Lender any amount assigned to it by such Lender pursuant to paragraph (b) above.

(e)

This Clause 27.7 shall not apply if the Recovering Lender would not, after having made such payment, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor and sums recovered as a result of litigation started by a Lender to enforce its rights under paragraph (a) of Clause 7.2 (Indemnities) in respect of an L/G and resulting in a Loss Sharing Payment shall only be shared with such Lenders that have joined in such litigation or commenced and diligently pursued separate litigation to enforce their rights under the Finance Documents.

(f)

Save for manifest error the determination of the Loss Sharing Payment by the Agent shall be binding for all Lenders.
