(d) the existence of a petition for, or the discharge of, or foreclosure proceedings relating to material parts of the borrower´s assets;

(e) the refusal of the borrower to grant adequate collateral to the lender in accordance with section 4.1;

(f) the non payment of any drawn amount due for repayment in accordance with section 2.2., unless such failure to pay is caused by technical or administrative failure or error and payment is made within 3 business days after its due date

(g) the non payment of interest due in accordance with section 3.1 and 3.2, provided the non-payment lasts longer than 2 weeks;

(h) other infringements by the borrower of the obligations resulting from this agreement but in cases, when they are capable of remedy, only if they are not remedied within 15 Business Days of the earlier of (i) the lender giving notice to the borrower and (ii) the borrower becoming aware of the infringement.

In case of an extraordinary termination, any undrawn part of the facility is immediately cancelled and any drawn amount plus accrued interest due thereon in accordance with section 3.1 is due for payment to the lender in one sum 10 days after receipt of the declaration of extraordinary termination by the borrower. In addition the borrower has to bear any loss, the lender might suffer and which can not be avoided by an alternative use of such sum prepaid (by reinvesting or prepayment of other indebtedness). If the extraordinary termination to the contrary leads to any profit of the lender, the lender would transfer such profit to the borrower.
