	In clauses 17.16 to 17.20:

	Non-Spanish Lender means a Lender resident for tax purposes outside Spain and which is:

	(i)	resident in a member state of the European Union provided it does not obtain income from this transaction through a territory considered to be a tax haven for Spanish tax purposes (as currently set out in Royal Decree 1080/1991, of 5 July) nor operates, through a permanent establishment located in Spain with which this transaction is effectively connected; or

	(ii)	a Treaty Lender.

	Qualifying Lender means a Spanish Lender or a Non-Spanish Lender which is beneficially entitled to interest payable to that Lender in respect of an advance under this Agreement.

	Spanish Lender means a Lender which is a Spanish financial entity or a Spanish branch of a non-Spanish financial entity that complies with the requirements described in:

(i)

paragraph (c) of Article 59 of Royal Decree 1777/2004, of 30 July, on Corporate Income Tax Regulations (Real Decreto 1777/2004, de 30 de Xxxxx, por el que se aprueba el Reglamento del Impuesto sobre Sociedades); or

	(ii)	the second paragraph of Article 8.1 of Royal Decree 1776/2004, of July 30, on Non Resident Income Tax Regulations (Real Decreto 1776/2004, de 30 de xxxxx, por el que se aprueba el Reglamento del Impuesto sobre la Renta de no Residentes),

	as a financial entity (“entidad de credito”), as defined in Article 1 of Royal Decree 1298/1986 (as amended by the Law 3/1994 which implemented the Second Directive on Financial Institutions) and that is registered with the Special Registry of the Bank of Spain.

	Tax Credit means a credit against any Tax or any relief or remission for Tax (or its repayment).

	Tax Payment means either the increase in a payment made by an Obligor to a Finance Party under clause 17.17 (Tax gross-up) or a payment under clause 17.18 (Tax indemnity).

	Treaty Lender means a Lender which:

	(a)	is resident of a Treaty State; and

	(b)	does not carry on a business in Spain through a permanent establishment, branch or agency with which the payment is effectively connected.

	Treaty State means a jurisdiction having a double taxation agreement (a “Treaty”) with Spain which makes provision for full exemption from tax imposed by Spain on the income obtained for any Finance Party.

	17.17	Tax gross-up

	(a)	Each Obligor must make all payments to be made by it under the Finance Documents without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

	(b)	If:

	(i)	a Lender is not, or ceases to be, a Qualifying Lender; or

	(ii)	an Obligor or a Lender is aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is a change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction),

	it must promptly notify the Facilities Agent. The Facilities Agent must then promptly notify the affected Parties.

(c)

Except as provided below, if a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from the Obligor will be increased to an

	amount which (after making the Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

	(d)	Except as provided below, an Obligor is not required to make an increased payment under paragraph (c) above for a Tax Deduction in respect of the tax imposed by Spain to a Lender that is not, or has ceased to be, a Qualifying Lender in excess of the increase that the Obligor would have had to pay under paragraph (c) above had the Lender been, or not ceased to be, a Qualifying Lender.

	(e)	Paragraph (d) above will not apply if the Lender has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender by reason of any change after the later of the date on which it became a Lender under this Agreement and the date of the First Amendment Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or double taxation agreement or any published practice or concession of any relevant taxing authority.

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

	(g)	Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or a payment required in connection with a Tax Deduction, the Obligor must deliver to the Facilities Agent for the relevant Finance Party evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) the appropriate payment has been paid to the relevant taxing authority.

	(h)	Each Qualifying Lender considered a Non-Spanish Lender shall, on or prior to the date of the First Amendment Agreement in the case of each Existing Lender as at the date of the First Amendment Agreement and on the date of the assignment or transfer pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each New Lender after the date of the First Amendment Agreement and in the case of any other Finance Party (as the terms “Existing Lender” and “New Lender” are defined in clause 28) and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by a Spanish Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Lender remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Facilities Agent and each Spanish Borrower with either (i) an original certificate issued by the competent authority of the taxing jurisdiction in which such Lender is resident attesting to the fact that such Lender is tax-resident in a Member State of the European Union, or (ii) such certification or documentation as may be issued by the taxing authority of the jurisdiction in which it is resident for tax purposes, as contemplated by the Treaty that such jurisdiction has concluded with the Kingdom of Spain, certifying the residence of such Lender in such taxing jurisdiction within the meaning of the Treaty of such jurisdiction with

	the Kingdom of Spain, with the result that such Lender is exempt from Spanish withholding tax under such Treaty on payments pursuant to a Finance Document.

	If no documentation is provided or the documentation provided by a Lender does not comply with the necessary requirements under Spanish law to ensure that no Spanish tax shall be withheld on payments made under the Finance Documents, any increased amount due under paragraph (c) above shall not be payable by an Obligor.

	Each Obligor which makes a payment to which a Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that Obligor to obtain authorisation to make that payment without a Tax Deduction.

	(i)	In the event that an Obligor changes its country of residence and a Tax Deduction is imposed by the new country of residence, that Obligor shall pay such additional amounts to ensure that the amounts received by the Facilities Agent and each Lender are no less than the amounts the Facilities Agent and each Lender would have received but for such change of country of residence by that Obligor provided always that the Obligor shall not be obliged to pay such additional amounts to the extent that such additional amounts would not have been payable under this paragraph had each Lender remained a Qualifying Lender.

	17.18	Tax indemnity

	(a)	Except as provided below, the Company must indemnify a Finance Party against any loss or liability which that Finance Party acting reasonably determines will be or has been suffered (directly or indirectly) by that Finance Party for or on account of Tax in relation to a payment received or receivable (or any payment deemed to be received or receivable) under a Finance Document.

	(b)	Paragraph (a) above does not apply to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party under the laws of the jurisdiction in which:

	(i)	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

	(ii)	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 by that Finance Party. However, any payment deemed to be received or receivable, including any amount treated as income but not actually received by

	the Finance Party, such as a Tax Deduction, will not be treated as net income received or receivable for this purpose.

	(c)	Paragraph (a) above does not apply to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

	(i)	is compensated for by any increased payment under clause 17.17 (Tax gross-up); or

	(ii)	would have been compensated for by an increased payment under clause 17.17 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because of the exclusion in clause 17.17(d) or the proviso to clause 17.17(i) applied.

	(d)	Each Finance Party considered a Non-Spanish Lender shall, on or prior to the date of the First Amendment Agreement in the case of each Existing Lender as at the date of the first Amendment Agreement, on the date of the assignment or transfer pursuant to which it becomes a Lender in the case of each New Lender, after the date of the First Amendment Agreement and any other Finance Party, (as the terms “Existing Lender” and “New Lender” are defined in clause 28) and from time to time thereafter as reasonably requested in writing by a Spanish Borrower (but only so long thereafter as such Finance Party remains lawfully able to do so), provide each of the Facilities Agent and each Spanish Borrower with an original certificate issued by the competent authority of the taxing jurisdiction in which such Finance Party is resident certifying the residence of such Finance Party in such taxing jurisdiction within the meaning of the Treaty of such jurisdiction with the Kingdom of Spain, with the result that such Finance Party is exempt from Spanish withholding tax under such Treaty on payments pursuant to a Finance Document.

	If no documentation is provided or the documentation provided by a Finance Party does not comply with the necessary requirements under Spanish law to ensure that no Spanish tax shall be withheld on payments made hereunder, any obligation to gross up in respect of withholding tax shall be considered excluded from the tax indemnity described under paragraph (a) above.

	Each Obligor which makes a payment to which a Finance Party is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that Obligor to obtain authorisation to make that payment without a Tax Deduction.

	(e)	A Finance Party making, or intending to make, a claim under paragraph (a) above must promptly notify the Company of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim.

17.19

Tax Credit

	(a)	Where any payment has been made subject to a Tax Deduction, a Finance Party agrees to use its commercially reasonable endeavours to complete any procedural formalities necessary for the relevant Finance Party to obtain any Tax Credit available as a result of the payment being made subject to a Tax Deduction.

	(b)	If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party in its absolute discretion determines that:

	(i)	a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, or to that Tax Payment; and

	(ii)	it has used and retained that Tax Credit (on a consolidated basis if relevant to the determination of its allowable credit for foreign taxes paid or accrued),

	the Finance Party must 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 if the Tax Payment had not been required to be made by the Obligor.

	17.20	Stamp taxes

	The Company must pay and indemnify each Finance Party against any stamp duty, registration or other similar Tax payable in connection with the entry into, performance or enforcement of any Finance Document, except for any such Tax payable in connection with the entry into a Transfer Certificate.

	17.21	Value added taxes

	(a)	Any amount (including costs and expenses) payable under a Finance Document by an Obligor is exclusive of any value added tax or any other Tax of a similar nature which might be chargeable in connection with that amount. If any such Tax is chargeable, the Obligor must pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying that amount) an amount equal to the amount of that Tax (and such Finance Party shall as soon as reasonably practicable provide an appropriate value added tax invoice to the Obligor).

	(b)	If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) in connection with a Finance Document, and any Party is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier, such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Supplier shall promptly pay to the relevant Finance Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment from the

	relevant tax authority which it reasonably determines related to the VAT chargeable on that supply.

	(c)	Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Finance Party against all VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that the Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT.”
