Agreement) or with (or into) Borrower provided Borrower is the surviving legal entity, and as long as no Event of Default is occurring prior thereto or arises as a result therefrom. Without limiting the foregoing, each Guarantor shall not, without Collateral Agent’s prior written consent, enter into any binding contractual arrangement with any Person to attempt to facilitate a merger or acquisition of such Guarantor, unless (i) no Event of Default exists when such agreement is entered into by such Guarantor, (ii) such agreement does not give such Person the right to claim any fees, payments or damages from such Guarantor in excess of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars ($250,000), and (iii) such Guarantor notifies Collateral Agent in advance of entering into such an agreement.

7. PAYMENTS

7.1 Grossing Up

Each payment made by the Guarantor to the Collateral Agent under this Deed shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for or on account of Tax unless the Guarantor is required to make such payment subject to the deduction or withholding of Tax, in which case the sum payable by the Guarantor in respect of which such deduction or withholding is required to be made shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of the required deduction or withholding, the Collateral Agent receives and retains (free from any liability in respect of any such deduction or withholding) a net sum equal to the sum which it would have received and so retained had no such deduction or withholding been made or required to be made.

7.2 Tax Credit

If a Chargor makes an increased Tax payment to the Collateral Agent under Clause 16.1 and the Collateral Agent reasonably determines that:

(a) a Tax Credit is attributable to that Tax payment; and

(b) that Collateral Agent has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

the Collateral Agent shall pay an amount to the Chargor which the Collateral Agent reasonably determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the increased Tax payment under Clause 16.1 not been made by the Chargor, provided that any costs of such determination reasonably incurred by the Collateral Agent shall be borne by the Chargor.

7.3 Stamp taxes

Each Guarantor shall pay and, within three (3) Business Days of demand, indemnify the Collateral Agent against any cost, loss or liability that a Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of this Deed.

7.4 Value added tax

7.4.1 All amounts set out, or expressed in a Loan Document to be payable which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to sub-clause 6.3.2 below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by either Party to the other under a Loan Document, such Party receiving the relevant supply shall pay to the Party making the supply (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT.

7.4.2 Where a Loan Document requires either Party to reimburse or indemnify the other Party for any cost or expense, such reimbursing Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) the other Party for the full amount of such cost or expense including such part thereof as represents VAT save to the extent that the relevant Party being reimbursed reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

7.4.3 In relation to any supply made by either Party to the other under a Loan Document, if reasonably requested by either the Collateral Agent or the Guarantor, such Party receiving the supply must promptly provide the Collateral Agent or the Guarantor (as the case may be) with details of its VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with the Party making the supply’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

8. SET-OFF

The Guarantor authorizes the Collateral Agent (which shall not be obliged to exercise this right) to apply any credit balance to which the Guarantor is entitled on any account of the Guarantor with the Collateral Agent in satisfaction of any sum which is due and payable from the Guarantor to the Collateral Agent under this Deed and remains unpaid; and for this purpose, the Collateral Agent is authorized to purchase with the monies standing to the credit of any such account such other currencies as may be necessary to effect such application.

14

10. REMEDIES AND WAIVERS

11.1.2 the legality, validity or enforceability of such provision or the effectiveness of this Deed under the law of any other jurisdiction.

If the Collateral Agent reasonably determines that an amount paid to it under any Finance Document is reasonably likely to be capable of being avoided or otherwise set aside on the liquidation or administration of the person by whom such amount was paid, then for the purposes of this Deed, such amount shall be regarded as not having been paid.

11.3 Currency Conversion

11.3.1 Any amount due to a Finance Party in respect of an Obligation in a currency other than US$ (as provided for in a Loan Document) shall be converted into US at the Collateral Agent’s spot rate of exchange for the purchase of US$ with such other currency at or about 10.00 a.m. on the day on which the Collateral Agent shall have made demand of a Guarantor pursuant to Clause 2.1 (Guarantee and Indemnity).

11.3.2 In order to apply any sum held or received by the Collateral Agent in or towards payment of the Obligations, the Collateral Agent may purchase an amount in another currency and the rate of exchange to be used shall be that at which, at such time as it considers appropriate, the Collateral Agent is able to effect such purchase.

11.4 Currency Indemnity

If any sum due from a Guarantor under this Deed or any order or judgment given or made in relation to this Deed has to be converted from the currency (the “first currency”) in which the same is payable under this Deed or under such order or judgment into another currency (the “second currency”) for the purpose of:
