(c) If there is any inconsistency between any term of an Ancillary Facility and any term of this Agreement, this Agreement shall prevail except for (i) Clause 36.3 (Day count convention) which shall not prevail for the purposes of calculating fees, interest or commission relating to an Ancillary Facility; (ii) an Ancillary Facility, comprising more than one account where the terms of the Ancillary Documents governing such Ancillary Facility shall prevail to the extent required to permit the netting of balances on those accounts; and (iii) where the relevant term of this Agreement would be contrary to, or inconsistent with, the law governing the relevant Ancillary Document governing such Ancillary Facility in which case that term of this Agreement shall not prevail.

(d) Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities are dealt with in Clause 15.5 (Interest, commission and fees on Ancillary Facilities).

7.5 Repayment of Ancillary Facility

(a) An Ancillary Facility shall cease to be available under this Agreement on the Termination Date in relation to the Facility or such earlier date on which its expiry date occurs or on which it is cancelled in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(b) If an Ancillary Facility expires in accordance with its terms the Ancillary Commitment, of the Ancillary Lender, shall be reduced to zero (and its Available Commitment shall be increased accordingly).

(c) No Ancillary Lender may demand repayment or prepayment of any amounts or demand cash cover for any liabilities made available or incurred by it under its Ancillary Facility (except where the Ancillary Facility is provided on a net limit basis to the extent required to bring any gross outstandings down to the net limit) unless:

(i) the Total Commitments have been cancelled in full, or all outstanding Utilisations have become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or the Agent has declared all outstanding Utilisations under the Facility immediately due and payable, or the expiry date of the Ancillary Facility occurs; or

(ii) it becomes unlawful in any applicable jurisdiction for the Ancillary Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or to fund, issue or maintain its participation in its Ancillary Facility; or

(iii) the Ancillary Outstandings (if any) under that Ancillary Facility can be refinanced by a Utilisation and the Ancillary Lender gives sufficient notice to enable a Utilisation to be made to refinance those Ancillary Outstandings.

(d) For the purposes of determining whether or not the Ancillary Outstandings under an Ancillary Facility mentioned in paragraph (c)(iii) above can be refinanced by a Utilisation:

(i) the Commitment of the Ancillary Lender will be increased by the amount of its Ancillary Commitment; and

(ii) the Utilisation may (so long as paragraph (c)(i) above does not apply) be made irrespective of whether a Default is outstanding or any other applicable condition precedent is not satisfied (but only to the extent that the proceeds are applied in refinancing those Ancillary Outstandings) and irrespective of whether Clause 4.4 (Maximum number of Utilisations) or paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 5.2 (Completion of a Utilisation Request for Loans) applies.

(e) On the making of a Utilisation of the Facility to refinance Ancillary Outstandings:

(i) each Lender will participate in that Utilisation in an amount (as determined by the Agent) which will result as nearly as possible in the aggregate amount of its participation in the Utilisations then outstanding bearing the same proportion to the aggregate amount of the Utilisations then outstanding as its Commitment bears to the Total Commitments; and

(ii) the relevant Ancillary Facility shall be cancelled.

(f) In relation to an Ancillary Facility which comprises an overdraft facility where a Designated Net Amount has been established, the Ancillary Lender providing that Ancillary Facility shall only be obliged to take into account for the purposes of calculating compliance with the Designated Net Amount those credit balances which it is permitted to take into account by the then current law and regulations in relation to its reporting of exposures to the Financial Services Authority or any other applicable regulatory authorities as netted for capital adequacy purposes.

7.6 Ancillary Outstandings

Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender agrees with and for the benefit of each Lender that:

(a) the Ancillary Outstandings under any Ancillary Facility, provided by that Ancillary Lender shall not exceed the Ancillary Commitment of that Ancillary Lender applicable to that Ancillary Facility, and where the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, Ancillary Outstandings under that Ancillary Facility shall not exceed the Designated Net Amount in respect of that Ancillary Facility; and

(b) where all or part of the Ancillary Facility is an overdraft facility comprising more than one account, the Ancillary Outstandings (calculated on the basis that the words in parentheses in paragraph (a) of the definition of that term were deleted) shall not exceed the Designated Gross Amount applicable to that Ancillary Facility.

7.7 Adjustment for Ancillary Facilities upon acceleration

“Outstandings” means, in relation to a Lender, the aggregate of the equivalent in the Base Currency of (i) its participation in each Utilisation then outstanding (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as a Lender under the Facility), and (ii) if the Lender is also an Ancillary Lender the Ancillary Outstandings in respect of Ancillary Facilities provided by that Ancillary Lender (together with the aggregate amount of all accrued interest, fees and commission owed to it as an Ancillary Lender in respect of the Ancillary Facility).

“Total Outstandings” means the aggregate of all Outstandings.

(a) If a notice is served under Clause 26.21 (Acceleration) (other than a notice declaring Utilisations to be due on demand), each Lender and each Ancillary Lender shall promptly adjust by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) their claims in respect of amounts outstanding to them under the Facility to ensure that after such transfers the Outstandings of each Lender bear the same proportion to the Total Outstandings as such Lender’s Commitment bears to the Total Commitments, each as at the date the notice is served under Clause 26.21 (Acceleration).

(b) If an amount outstanding under an Ancillary Facility is a contingent liability and that contingent liability becomes an actual liability or is reduced to zero after the original adjustment is made under paragraph (a) above, then each Lender and Ancillary Lender will make a further adjustment by corresponding transfers (to the extent necessary) to put themselves in the position they would have been in had the original adjustment been determined by reference to the actual liability or, as the case may be, zero liability and not the contingent liability.

(c) Prior to the application of the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Clause 7.7, an Ancillary Lender that has provided an overdraft comprising more than one account under an Ancillary Facility shall set-off any liabilities owing to it under such overdraft facility against credit balances on any account comprised in such overdraft facility.

(d) All calculations to be made pursuant to this Clause 7.7 shall be made by the Agent based upon information provided to it by the Lenders and Ancillary Lenders.

7.8 Information

Each Borrower and each Ancillary Lender shall, promptly upon request by the Agent, supply the Agent with any information relating to the operation of an Ancillary Facility (including the Ancillary Outstandings) as the Agent may reasonably request from time to time. Each Borrower consents to all such information being released to the Agent and the other Finance Parties.

7.9 Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Lender may become an Ancillary Lender. In such case, the Lender and its Affiliate shall be treated as a single Lender (but not for the purposes of Clause 16 (Tax gross up and Indemnities), which shall apply in respect of the relevant Affiliate (if at all) as if such Affiliate were a Lender and had become a Lender on the day it acceded to the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with paragraph (c) below and such Affiliate shall be treated as a UK Non-Bank Lender for the purposes of this Agreement if it gives a Tax Confirmation to the Agent (who shall without unreasonable delay then notify the Company of the same, though for the avoidance of doubt such Tax Confirmation shall be deemed given to the Company at the same time as it is given to the Agent)), whose Commitment is the amount set out opposite the relevant Lender’s name in Part 2 of Schedule 1 (The Original Parties) and/or the amount of any Commitment transferred to or assumed by that Lender under this Agreement, to the extent (in each case) not cancelled, reduced or transferred by it under this Agreement. For the purposes of Clause 16 (Tax gross up and indemnities) such Affiliate shall also indicate which of the categories of Clause 16.5 (Lender status confirmation) (if any) applies to it, and (if relevant) shall give an indication in accordance with Clause 16.6 (HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation), in each case without unreasonable delay after acceding to the Intercreditor Agreement in accordance with paragraph (c) below. For the purposes of calculating the Lender’s Available Commitment with respect to the Facility, the Lender’s Commitment shall be reduced to the extent of the aggregate of the Ancillary Commitments of its Affiliates.

(b) The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Lender in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to Clause 7.3(c)(i) (Availability).

(c) An Affiliate of a Lender which becomes an Ancillary Lender shall accede to the Intercreditor Agreement as an Ancillary Lender and any person which so accedes to the Intercreditor Agreement shall, at the same time, become a party to this Agreement as an Ancillary Lender in accordance with clause 20.13 (Creditor/Creditor Representative Accession Undertaking) of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(d) If a Lender assigns all of its rights and benefits or transfers all of its rights and obligations to a New Lender (as defined in Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders)), its Affiliate shall cease to have any obligations under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

(e) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on an Ancillary Lender and the relevant Ancillary Lender is an Affiliate of a Lender which is not a party to that document, the relevant Lender shall ensure that the obligation is performed by its Affiliate.

7.10 Affiliates of Borrowers

(a) Subject to the terms of this Agreement, an Affiliate of a Borrower may with the approval of the relevant Lender become a borrower with respect to an Ancillary Facility.

(b) The Company shall specify any relevant Affiliate of a Borrower in any notice delivered by the Company to the Agent pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) of Clause 7.3 (Availability).

(c) If a Borrower ceases to be a Borrower under this Agreement in accordance with Clause 27.3 (Resignation of a Borrower), its Affiliate shall cease to have any rights under this Agreement or any Ancillary Document.

(d) Where this Agreement or any other Finance Document imposes an obligation on a Borrower under an Ancillary Facility and the relevant Borrower is an Affiliate of a 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 Ancillary Document.

7.11 Commitment amounts

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement, each Lender shall ensure that at all times its Commitment is not less than:

(a) its Ancillary Commitment; and

(b) the Ancillary Commitment of its Affiliates,

in each case, excluding for these purposes any reduction in such Lender’s Commitment attributable to such Ancillary Commitment pursuant to Clause 7.3(a) (Availability).

SECTION 4

REPAYMENT, PREPAYMENT AND CANCELLATION

8. REPAYMENT

8.1 Repayment of Loans

(a) Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Borrower which has drawn a Loan shall repay that Loan on the last day of its Interest Period.

(b) Without prejudice to each Borrower’s obligation under paragraph (a) above, if one or more Loans are to be made available to a Borrower:

(i) on the same day that a maturing Loan is due to be repaid by that Borrower;

(ii) in the same currency as the maturing Loan (unless it arose as a result of the operation of Clause 6.2 (Unavailability of a currency)); and

(iii) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Loan;

the aggregate amount of the new Loans shall be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of the maturing Loan so that:

(A) if the amount of the maturing Loan exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Loans:

(I) the relevant Borrower will only be required to pay an amount in cash in the relevant currency equal to that excess; and

(II) each Lender’s participation (if any) in the new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation (if any) in the maturing Loan, and that Lender will not be required to make its participation in the new Loans available in cash; and

(B) if the amount of the maturing Loan is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Loans:

(I) the relevant Borrower will not be required to make any payment in cash; and

(II) each Lender will be required to make its participation in the new Loans available in cash only to the extent that its participation (if any) in the new Loans exceeds that Lender’s participation (if any) in the maturing Loan, and the remainder of that Lender’s participation in such new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in the maturing Loan.

(c) At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the Termination Date and will be treated as separate Loans (the “Separate Loans”) denominated in the currency in which the relevant participations are outstanding.

(d) A Borrower to whom a Separate Loan is outstanding may prepay that Separate Loan by giving five (5) Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. The Agent will forward a separate copy of a prepayment notice received in accordance with this paragraph (d) to the Defaulting Lender concerned as soon as practicable on receipt.

10.4 Application of mandatory prepayments

(a) Subject to paragraph (b), prepayments made pursuant to this Clause 10 (Mandatory Prepayment) or Clause 25.21 (Notes Purchases) shall be applied in the following order:

(i) first, in cancellation of the Available Commitments (and the Available Commitment of the Lenders will be cancelled rateably) (such cancellation shall be deemed to be a prepayment even though no cash is paid by the Borrower to the Lenders);

(ii) secondly, in permanent prepayment and cancellation of Utilisations and cancellation of Commitments; and

(iii) thirdly, in repayment and cancellation of the Ancillary Outstandings and Ancillary Commitments.

(b) Unless the Company makes an election under paragraph (c) below, the Borrowers shall make prepayments and cancellations under this Clause 10 or Clause 25.21 (Notes Purchases) at the following times:

(i) in the case of Net Cash Proceeds (if any) required to be applied pursuant to Clause 10.2 (Disposals), within 364 days following receipt of those Net Cash Proceeds; and

(c) Subject to paragraph (d) below, the Company may elect, by no less than two (2) Business Days’ notice in writing to the Agent (or such shorter period as the Majority Lenders may agree), that any prepayment of a Utilisation due under Clause 25.21 (Notes Purchases), to the extent it will be applied under any sub-clause other than sub-clause “first” of Clause 10.4(a) (Application of mandatory prepayments), may be made on the last day of the Interest Period relating to that Utilisation. If the Company makes that election then an amount of the Utilisation equal to the amount of the relevant prepayment shall be due and payable on the last day of its Interest Period.

(d) If the Company has made an election under paragraph (c) above but an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, that election shall no longer apply and a proportion of the Utilisation in respect of which the election was made equal to the amount of the relevant prepayment shall be immediately due and payable (unless the Majority Lenders otherwise agree).

(e) Subject to paragraphs (f) to (h) below, if monies are required to be applied in prepayment or repayment of Utilisations under Clause 10 (Mandatory Prepayment)

but, in order to be so applied, need to be upstreamed or otherwise transferred from one member of the Group to another member of the Group to effect that payment, no amounts shall be payable under that Clause:

(i) to the extent that the upstreaming or transfer of funds to make the relevant payment:

(A) is prohibited by the local law of the jurisdiction from which the upstreaming (or other transfer) is to be made or the local law of the jurisdiction to which the upstreaming (or other transfer) should be made (in each case including, without limitation, any corporate benefit, capital maintenance, general legal or statutory limitations, financial assistance, fraudulent preference or laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions));

(B) would result in a risk to the officers or directors of the relevant member of the Group of contravention of their fiduciary or officers’ or directors’ duties and/or of civil or criminal liability; or

(ii) in circumstances where the Taxes or other costs to the Group of the upstreaming (or other transfer) of funds to make the relevant payment is equal to or exceeds five per cent of the amount to be upstreamed or transferred.

(f) Each Obligor shall (and the Company shall procure that each relevant member of the Group will) use all commercially reasonable endeavours to overcome any restrictions (including without limitation by seeking to upstream or otherwise transfer the relevant monies to one or more other members of the Group) and/or minimise any Taxes or other costs of any upstreaming (or other transfer). If at any time those restrictions are removed or (as the case may be) those Taxes or costs are reduced, the Company must procure that an amount equal to the relevant proceeds will be applied in prepayment of the Facility in accordance with this Agreement at the end of the next Interest Period.

(g) If cash required for making such prepayment is available to any other member of the Restricted Group and such cash is not projected to be required by any member of the Restricted Group during the next 12 Months (“Free Cash”) and sub-paragraphs (e)(i) and (ii) above would not apply to any prepayment made using Free Cash, any such other members of the Restricted Group shall (to the extent it is able to do so without breaching any legal restriction applicable to it (including, without limitation, any financial assistance prohibition), having used all commercially reasonable endeavours to overcome any such restriction), apply the amount of Free Cash towards any applicable prepayment (or, as applicable, towards upstreaming (or otherwise transferring) such Free Cash to a Borrower to enable it to make that prepayment).

(h) The obligation to make a mandatory prepayment under Clause 10.1 (Exit) shall not be subject to any limitation set out under paragraph (e) above.

(i) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amounts shall be required to be paid in accordance with this Clause 10 if the proceeds that would have otherwise been used to make such prepayment are applied in accordance with Clauses 10 (Mandatory Prepayment) and 25.21 (Notes Purchases) of the SSRCF.

10.5 Mandatory Prepayment Accounts

(a) The Company shall ensure that amounts in respect of which the Company has made an election under paragraph (c) of Clause 10.4 (Application of mandatory

prepayments) are paid into a Mandatory Prepayment Account, in the case of all such amounts other than pursuant to Clause 25.21 (Notes Purchases), as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by a member of the Restricted Group and, in the case of amounts pursuant to Clause 25.21 (Notes Purchases), on or prior to the Notes Purchase in relation to which the relevant prepayment is required.

(b)

(i) Subject to paragraph (ii) below, the Company and each Borrower irrevocably authorise the Agent to apply amounts credited to the Mandatory Prepayment Account to pay amounts due and payable under Clause 10.4 (Application of mandatory prepayments) and otherwise under the Finance Documents. For the avoidance of doubt, after the occurrence of an Event of Default that is continuing but prior to the occurrence of an Acceleration Event (under and as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), the Company and each Borrower further irrevocably authorise the Agent to so apply amounts credited to the Mandatory Prepayment Account.

(ii) Each of the Parties hereby acknowledges and confirms that, on and after the occurrence of an Acceleration Event (under and as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement), amounts credited to the Mandatory Prepayment Account shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement.

(c) A Lender, the Security Agent, Agent with which a Mandatory Prepayment Account or Account Bank is held acknowledges and agrees that (i) interest shall accrue at normal commercial rates on amounts credited to those accounts and that the account holder shall be entitled to receive such interest (which shall be paid in accordance with the mandate relating to such account) unless an Event of Default is continuing and (ii) each such account is subject to the Transaction Security.

SECTION 5

COSTS OF UTILISATION

12. INTEREST

12.1 Calculation of interest

The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(a) Margin; and

(b) LIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in Euro, EURIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in HKD, HIBOR.

12.2 Payment of interest

(a) The Borrower to which a Loan has been made shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the dates falling at six (6) Monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period).

(b) If the Annual Financial Statements (as defined in Clause 23 (Information Undertakings)) and the related Compliance Certificate received by the Agent show that a higher Margin should have applied during a certain period, then the Company shall (or shall ensure the relevant Borrower shall) promptly pay to the Agent any amounts necessary to put the Agent and the Lenders in the position they would have been in had the appropriate rate of the Margin applied during such period.

(c) Any increase in the payment of interest shall only apply in relation to a Lender to the extent that that Lender was a Lender during the period in which a higher Margin should have applied and is a Lender on the date the relevant interest payment is to be adjusted.

12.3 Default interest

(a) If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, 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, subject to paragraph (b) below, is 1% higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 12.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent.

(b) If any overdue amount consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

(i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

(ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be 1% higher than the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

(c) Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

12.4 Notification of rates of interest

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the relevant Borrower (or the Company) of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.

12.5 Recalculation of interest

If a Tax Deduction is required by Swiss law to be made by a Swiss Obligor in respect of any interest payable by it under this Agreement and should paragraph (c) of Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up) be unenforceable for any reason (other than as a result of the application of one of the exclusions in paragraph (d) of Clause 16.2 (Tax gross up)), the applicable interest rate in relation to that interest payment will be calculated by the Company or the Swiss Obligor and shall be (i) the interest rate which would have applied to that interest payment (as provided for in Clause 12.1 (Calculation of Interest)) in the absence of this Clause 12.5 divided by (ii) 1 minus the rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made (where the rate at which the relevant Tax Deduction is required to be made is for this purpose expressed as a fraction of 1 rather than as a percentage) and (a) that the Swiss Obligor shall be obliged to pay the relevant interest at the adjusted rate in accordance with this Clause 12.5 and (b) all references to a rate of interest in Clause 12.1 (Calculation of Interest) shall be construed accordingly.

12.6 Maximum Interest Cap

The Default Interest with respect to any Polish Guarantor is subject to mandatory limitations imposed by Article 359 of the Polish Act on the Civil Code of 23 April 1964 (Journal of Laws No. 16, item 93, as amended).

13.1 Selection of Interest Periods and Terms

(a) A Borrower (or the Company on behalf of a Borrower) may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan.

(b) Subject to this Clause 13, a Borrower (or the Company) may select an Interest Period of one, two, three or six Months or any other period agreed between the Company and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders in relation to the relevant Loan).

(d) A Loan has one Interest Period only.

13.2 Non-Business Days

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

14. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

14.1 Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 14.2 (Market disruption) if LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR or HIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Base Reference Banks but a Base Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR or HIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Base Reference Banks.

14.2 Market disruption

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

(i) the Margin; and

(ii) the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event by close of business on the date falling three (3) Business Days after the Quotation Day (or, if earlier, on the date falling three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period), to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select; and

(b) If:

(i) the percentage rate per annum notified by a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii) above is less than LIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in Euro, EURIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in HKD, HIBOR; or

(ii) a Lender has not notified the Agent of a percentage rate per annum pursuant to paragraph (a)(ii) above,

the cost to that Lender of funding its participation in that Loan for that Interest Period shall be deemed, for the purposes of paragraph (a) above, to be LIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in Euro, EURIBOR or, in relation to any Loan in HKD, HIBOR.

(d) In this Agreement:

“Market Disruption Event” means:

(i) at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period LIBOR, or if applicable, EURIBOR or HIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Base Reference Banks and none or only one of the Base Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Agent to determine LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR or HIBOR for the relevant currency and the Interest Period; or

(ii) before close of business in Hong Kong on the day following the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in a Loan exceed 35 per cent. of that

Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR or HIBOR.

14.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Company so requires, the Agent and the Company shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

(b) Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Company, be binding on all Parties.

14.4 Break Costs

(a) Each Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by a Finance Party, pay to that Finance Party its Break Costs attributable to all or any part of a Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by that Borrower on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for that Loan or Unpaid Sum.

(b) Each Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

15. FEES

15.1 Commitment fee

(a) The Company shall pay (or procure the payment) to the Agent (for the account of each Lender) a fee in the Base Currency, computed at the rate equal to 50% of the applicable Margin on that Lender’s undrawn and uncancelled portion of the Facility, from the date of this Agreement until the end of the Availability Period.

(b) The accrued commitment fee is payable on the last day of each successive period of three Months which ends during the relevant Availability Period, on the last day of the relevant Availability Period and on the cancelled amount of the relevant Lender’s Commitment at the time the cancellation is effective.

(c) All Commitment Fees will accrue from day to day and be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(d) No commitment fee is payable to the Agent (for the account of a Lender) (i) if the Closing Date does not occur or (ii) on any Available Commitment of that Lender for any day on which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

15.2 Arrangement fee

(iv) the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the Obligor making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under paragraph (g) or (h) (as applicable) below.

and such Obligor fails to give notice to the relevant Treaty Lender that it has not complied with such obligations and that it therefore wishes the Treaty Lender to co-operate in accordance with paragraph (g)(i) above.

(h) If a Lender has confirmed its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in accordance with paragraph (k) below or paragraph (a) of Clause 16.6 (HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation) and:

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

(l) Where a Lender includes the indication described in paragraph (k) above in Part 2 of Schedule 1 (The Original Parties):

(i) each Original Borrower which is a UK Borrower shall, to the extent that that Lender is a Lender under a Facility made available to that Original Borrower pursuant to Clause 2.1 (The Facility), file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the date of this Agreement and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing; and

(ii) each Additional Borrower which is a UK Borrower shall, to the extent that that Lender is a Lender under a Facility made available to that Additional Borrower pursuant to Clause 2.1 (The Facility), file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of becoming an Additional Borrower and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

(m) If a Lender has not included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with paragraph (k) above or paragraph (a) of Clause 16.6 (HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation), no Obligor shall file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Utilisation unless the Lender otherwise agrees.

(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 16.2 (Tax gross up); or

(B) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in paragraph (d) of Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up) applied; or

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

16.4 Tax Credit

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

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

(ii) that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

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

(b) If a UK Borrower makes a Tax Deduction in respect of a payment of interest to which a Treaty Lender is entitled and Clause 16.2 applies to increase the amount of the payment due to that Treaty Lender, the Company shall promptly provide the Treaty Lender with a tax deduction certificate evidencing the Tax Deduction. As soon as reasonably practicable after its receipt of that certificate, the Treaty Lender shall apply to HM Revenue & Customs for a refund of the amount of the Tax Deduction to the extent it is legally entitled to do so. For the avoidance of doubt and only to the extent actually received by the relevant Treaty Lender, such refund shall be considered a Tax Credit and this Clause 16.4 shall apply in relation thereto to the extent that the refund is attributable to the increase in the amount paid by the Company pursuant to Clause 16.2.

16.5 Lender Status Confirmation

Each Lender which becomes a Party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement shall indicate, in the Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation which it executes on becoming a Party or in the case of an Affiliate in accordance with Clause 7.9 (Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders), and in each case for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to any Obligor, which of the following categories it falls in:

(a) not a Qualifying Lender;

(d) a Qualifying Bank; and/or

(e) a Non Qualifying Bank.

If such a Lender fails to indicate its status as a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender) or a Treaty Lender in accordance with this Clause 16.5, then such a 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, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Clause 16.5.

16.6 HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation

(a) A New Lender, Increase Lender or Ancillary Lender becoming party to this Agreement in accordance with Clause 7.9 (Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders) that, in each case, is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Agent and without liability to any Obligor) in the Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation which it executes by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in that Transfer Certificate, Assignment Agreement or Increase Confirmation, or in the case of such an Ancillary Lender shall

include an indication to that effect in accordance with Clause 7.9 (Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders).

(ii) each Additional Borrower which is a UK Borrower which becomes an Additional Borrower after the relevant Transfer Date or the date on which the increase in Total Commitments described in the relevant Increase Confirmation takes effect or the date on which the Ancillary Lender becomes party to this Agreement in accordance with Clause 7.9 (Affiliates of Lenders as Ancillary Lenders) shall, to the extent that the New Lender or Increase Lender is a Lender under a Facility which is made available to that Additional Borrower pursuant to Clause 2.1 (The Facility), or to the extent that that Ancillary Lender becomes party to an Ancillary Facility which is made available to that Borrower, file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of becoming an Additional Borrower and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

(b) A demand pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Clause 16.7 shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for the demand being made by the relevant Finance Party and include appropriate documentation supporting such demand, but for the avoidance of doubt this paragraph (b) shall not invalidate or restrict a claim under paragraph (a) of this Clause 16.7.

16.8 VAT

(c) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall also 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 16.8 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 Directive 2006/112/EC, or as implemented by a Member State).

(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 its VAT registration number and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

(i) any law or regulation;

(ii) any fiduciary duty; or

(iii) any duty of confidentiality.

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

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

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

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

16.10 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.

SECTION 7

GUARANTEE

21. GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

21.1 Guarantee and indemnity

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally:

(a) guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents;

(b) undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever another Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, that Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it was the principal obligor; and

(c) agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by a Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

21.2 Continuing guarantee

This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

21.3 Reinstatement

If any discharge, release or arrangement (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by a Finance Party in whole or in part on the basis of any payment, security or other disposition which is avoided or must be restored or returned in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise, without limitation, then the liability of each Guarantor under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) will continue or be reinstated as if the discharge, release or arrangement had not occurred.

21.4 Waiver of defences

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity), would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

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

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

(c) 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 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;

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

(e) any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;

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

(g) any insolvency or similar proceedings.

21.5 Guarantor intent

Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 21.4 (Waiver of defences), each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.

21.6 Immediate recourse

Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity). This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

21.7 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 (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by that Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) 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 21 (Guarantee and indemnity).

21.8 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 21 (Guarantee and indemnity):

(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 take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party;

(d) to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 21.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

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

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

If a Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 33 (Payment mechanics).

21.9 Release of Guarantors’ right of contribution

If any Guarantor (a “Retiring Guarantor”) ceases to be a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents for the purpose of any sale or other Disposal of that Retiring Guarantor then on the date such Retiring Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor:

(a) that Retiring Guarantor is released by each other Guarantor from any liability (whether past, present or future and whether actual or contingent) to make a contribution to any other Guarantor arising by reason of the performance by any other Guarantor of its obligations under the Finance Documents; and

(b) each other Guarantor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Guarantor.

21.10 Additional security

This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party.

21.11 Other limitations

This guarantee does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of section 678 or 679 of the Companies Xxx 0000 or any equivalent and applicable provisions under the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of the relevant Guarantor and, with respect to any Additional Guarantor, is subject to any limitations set out in the Accession Deed applicable to such Additional Guarantor.

21.12 Polish Limitations

Any guarantee granted or assumed by a Guarantor incorporated in Poland (a “Polish Guarantor”) shall be limited in accordance with the following rules:

(a) To the extent the liability under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) is considered a liability (“zobowiązanie”) in the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy and Rehabilitation Law of 28 February 2003 (Polish Journal of Laws No. 60, item 535, as amended) (Polish Bankruptcy Law), the liability of each Polish Guarantor under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) shall be limited to the aggregate value of the assets of such Polish Guarantor current at the time less the aggregate value of his liabilities current at the time (other than the Polish Guarantor’s liability hereunder), and thus such liability should not result in the Polish Guarantor’s insolvency as defined in Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law;

(b) Additionally to the provisions of paragraph (a) above, each Polish Guarantor which is a limited liability company (“Sp. z o.o.”) has the right to refrain from making a payment under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) in the event and to the extent that such payment would result in a reduction of his assets necessary to fully cover its registered share capital under Article 189 section 2 of the Polish Commercial Companies Code of 15 September 2000 (Kodeks spółek handlowych, Polish Journal of Laws No. 94, item 1037, as amended).

The limitation in Clause 21.12(a) above will not apply if one or more of the following circumstances occurs:

(c) any Event of Default is continuing, irrespective of whether such Event of Default occurs before or after the relevant Polish Guarantor becomes insolvent within the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law;

(d) the liabilities of the relevant Polish Guarantor (other than those under the Finance Documents) result in its insolvency within the meaning of Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy Law; or

(e) Polish law is amended in such a manner that over-indebtedness (xxxx nadmiernego zadłużenia) as provided for in Article 11 section 2 of the Polish Bankruptcy law (as in force on the date of this Agreement) no longer gives grounds for bankruptcy or obliges the representatives of the Polish Guarantor to file for bankruptcy.

21.13 Swiss Limitations

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) the guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Swiss Obligor expressed to be assumed in this Agreement shall be limited as follows:

(a) If and to the extent that (i) a Swiss Obligor becomes liable under the Finance Documents, including, without limitation, this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity),

for obligations of its Affiliates (other than obligations of its direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries) or otherwise obliged to grant economic benefits to its Affiliates (other than its direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries), including, for the avoidance of doubt, the granting of any security by the Swiss Obligor or any restrictions of the Swiss Obligor’s rights of set-off and/or subrogation or its duties to subordinate or waive claims and (ii) complying with such obligations would constitute a repayment of capital (Einlagerückgewähr), a violation of the legally protected reserves (gesetzlich geschützte Reserven) or the payment of a (constructive) dividend (Gewinnausschüttung) by such Swiss Obligor or would otherwise be restricted under Swiss corporate law then applicable (the “Restricted Obligations”), the aggregate liability of the Swiss Obligor for Restricted Obligations shall be limited to the amount of unrestricted equity capital surplus (including the unrestricted portion of general and statutory reserves, other free reserves, retained earnings and current net profits) available for distribution as dividends to the shareholders of the Swiss Obligor at the time the Swiss Obligor is required to perform under the Finance Documents, provided that this is a requirement under applicable Swiss law at that time and further provided that such limitation shall not discharge the Swiss Obligor from its obligations in excess thereof, but merely postpone the performance date thereof until such times as performance is again permitted notwithstanding such limitation.

(b) In respect of Restricted Obligations, each Swiss Obligor shall:

(i) if and to the extent required by applicable law in force at the relevant time mitigate to the extent possible any Swiss Anticipatory Tax obligations to be levied on the Restricted Obligations (and cause its parent and other relevant Affiliates to fully cooperate in any mitigating efforts) and promptly notify the Agent thereof or, if such a notification procedure is not applicable:

(A) subject to any applicable double taxation treaty, deduct Swiss Anticipatory Tax at the rate of 35 per cent. (or such other rate as is in force at that time) from any payment made by it in respect of the Restricted Obligations;

(B) pay any such deduction to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and

(C) notify (and the Company shall ensure that the Swiss Obligor will notify) the Agent that such a deduction has been made and provide the Agent with evidence that such a deduction has been paid to the Swiss Federal Tax Administration; and

(ii) to the extent such a deduction is made, not be obliged to either gross-up in accordance with Clause 16.2 (Tax gross-up) or indemnify the Finance Parties in accordance Clause 16.3 (Tax indemnity) in relation to any such payment made by it in respect of Restricted Obligations unless grossing-up is permitted under the laws of Switzerland then in force. The Swiss Obligor shall use its best efforts to ensure that any person which is, as a result of a deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax, entitled to a full or partial refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax, will as soon as possible after the deduction of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax, (i) request a refund of the Swiss Anticipatory Tax under any applicable law (including double tax treaties) and (ii) pay to the Agent upon receipt any amount so refunded for application as a further payment of the Swiss Obligor under and pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) To the extent a Swiss Obligor is required to deduct Swiss Anticipatory Tax pursuant to paragraph (b) above, and if the maximum amount of freely disposable shareholder

equity pursuant to paragraph (a) above is not utilised, additional security interest granted by such Swiss Obligor under this Agreement shall be enforced until the enforcement proceeds equate an amount which (after making any deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax) would have resulted if no deduction of Swiss Anticipatory Tax had been required, provided that such enforcement amount (including the increased amount) shall in any event be limited to the maximum amount of freely disposable shareholder equity pursuant to paragraph (a) above.

(d) In the case of Restricted Obligations, the Swiss Obligor shall, and any parent company of the Swiss Obligor being a party to this Agreement shall procure that the Swiss Obligor will, promptly implement all such measures and/or to promptly procure the fulfilment of all prerequisites to allow it to perform its obligations under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) with a minimum of limitations and to allow the Agent (and the Finance Parties) prompt use of the proceeds from security, including the following:

(i) preparation of an up-to-date audited balance sheet of the Swiss Obligor;

(ii) confirmation of the auditors of the Swiss Obligor that the relevant amount represents (the maximum of) freely distributable profits and reserves

(iii) conversion of restricted reserves into profits and reserves freely available for the distribution as dividends (to the extent permitted by mandatory Swiss law);

(iv) revaluation of hidden reserves (to the extent permitted by mandatory Swiss law);

(v) to the extent permitted by applicable law and Swiss accounting standards, write-up or realize any of its assets that are shown in its balance sheet with a book value that is significantly lower than the market value of the assets, in case of realization, however, only if such assets are not necessary for such Swiss Obligor’s business (nicht betriebsnotwendig);

(vi) approval by a shareholders’ meeting of the Swiss Obligor of the (resulting) profit distribution; and

(vii) all such other measures necessary or useful to allow the Swiss Obligor to make the payments agreed hereunder with a minimum of limitations.

21.14 Hungarian limitations

(a) The obligations and liabilities of the Hungarian Guarantor, incorporated in the form of a Hungarian foundation, under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) or any other Finance Document shall at all times be limited to the maximum aggregate amount that does not result in any conflict with Hungarian laws applicable to foundations and its deed of foundation. Such obligations and liabilities may not:

(i) threaten the performance of the Hungarian Guarantor’s activities which serve its purposes stated in the deed of foundation and the maintenance of its operation;

(ii) exceed in amount the value of the Hungarian Guarantor’s assets;

(iii) threaten the Hungarian Guarantor’s charitable activities as well as its legal status as a charitable organization.

(b) The limitation of the obligations and liabilities of the Hungarian Guarantor under this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) shall be also applicable to obligations and liabilities undertaken by the Company acting as the agent of the Hungarian Guarantor under Clause 2.4 (Obligors’ Agent).

(c) Notwithstanding any term of this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity) or any other term in this Agreement or any other Finance Document, any guarantee or indemnity given by or other obligation assumed by a Hungarian Guarantor is meant as and is to be interpreted as an abstract guarantee agreement and not as surety as regulated in Articles 272-276 of the Hungarian Civil Code (in Hungarian: “kezesség”) and the Hungarian Guarantor undertakes to comply with the provisions of this Clause 21 (Guarantee and Indemnity).

21.15 US Limitations

The guarantee provided by any Obligor organised in the United States (each, a “US Obligor”) shall be limited by the following:

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of any Finance Document, the right of recovery against each US Obligor under the Finance Documents shall not exceed $1.00 less than the lowest amount which would render such US Obligor’s obligations thereunder void or voidable under applicable law, including, without limitation, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar foreign, federal or state law to the extent applicable to the guarantee set out herein and in this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) and the obligations of each US Obligor hereunder and thereunder. To effectuate the foregoing, the Security Agent and the US Obligors hereby irrevocably agree that the obligations of each US Obligor in respect of the guarantee set out in this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity) at any time shall be limited to the maximum amount as will result in the obligations of such US Obligor with respect thereto hereof not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance after giving full effect to the liability under such guarantee set out in the Facility Agreement and its related contribution rights but before taking into account any liabilities under any other guarantee by such US Obligor. For purposes of the foregoing, all guarantees of such US Obligor other than the guarantee under this Agreement will be deemed to be enforceable and payable after the guarantee thereunder.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Finance Documents, the guaranteed obligations of any US Obligor arising in respect of any Hedging Agreement shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations (as defined below).

(c) Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Obligor to honor all of its obligations under this Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Clause 21 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Clause 21, or otherwise under this Agreement, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Clause 21 shall remain in full force and effect until a discharge of guaranteed obligations. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Clause 21 constitute, and this Clause 21 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Obligor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(d) For purposes of this Clause 21.15:

(i) “Commodity Exchange Act” means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C.§ 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute.

(ii) “Excluded Swap Obligation” means, with respect to any Guarantor, any Swap Obligation if, and to the extent that, all or a portion of the guarantee of such Guarantor of, or the grant by such Guarantor of a security interest to secure, such Swap Obligation (or any guarantee thereof) is or becomes illegal under the Commodity Exchange Act or any rule, regulation or order of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (or the application or official interpretation of any thereof) by virtue of such Guarantor’s failure for any reason to constitute an “eligible contract participant” as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act and the regulations thereunder at the time the guarantee of such Guarantor or the grant of such security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation. If a Swap Obligation arises under a master agreement governing more than one swap, such exclusion shall apply only to the portion of such Swap Obligation that is attributable to swaps for which such guarantee or security interest is or becomes illegal.

(iii) “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Obligor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time the relevant guarantee or grant of the relevant security interest becomes effective with respect to such Swap Obligation or such other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder and can cause another person to qualify as an “eligible contract participant” at such time by entering into a keepwell under Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(iv) “Swap Obligation” means, with respect to any Guarantor, any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a “swap” within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

21.16 Spanish Limitations

The guarantee provided by any Obligor incorporated in Spain (the “Spanish Obligor”) shall be limited by the following:

(a) If such Spanish Obligor is incorporated in Spain as a sociedad de responsabilidad limitada, any guarantees provided by it shall:

(A) acquiring quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of such Spanish Obligor or quotas (participaciones sociales) or shares (acciones) representing the share capital of a company within its group; or

(B) refinancing a previous debt incurred by any Obligor for the acquisition of quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of such Spanish Obligor or quotas (participaciones sociales) or shares (acciones) representing the share capital of a company within its group; and shall

(b) For the purposes of paragraph (a) above, a reference to the “group” of a Spanish Obligor shall mean such Spanish Obligor and any other companies constituting a unity of decision. It shall be presumed that there is unity of decision when any of the scenarios set out in section 1 and/or section 2 of article 42 of the Spanish Commercial Code (Código de Comercio) are met.

(A) acquiring shares (acciones) representing the share capital of such Spanish Obligor or shares (acciones) or quotas (participaciones sociales) representing the share capital of its holding company; or

(d) For the purposes of paragraph (c) above, a reference to a “holding company” of a Spanish Obligor shall mean the company which, directly or indirectly, owns the majority of the voting rights of such Spanish Obligor or that may have a dominant influence on such Spanish Obligor. It shall be presumed that one company has a dominant influence on another company when:

(i) any of the scenarios set out in section 1 of article 42 of the Spanish Commercial Code (Código de Comercio) are met; or

(ii) when at least half plus one of the members of the managing body of the Spanish Obligor are also members of the managing body or top managers (altos directivos) of the dominant company or of another company controlled by such dominant company.

21.17 Bahraini Limitations

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Clause 21 (Guarantee and indemnity), the guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of any Guarantor incorporated under the laws of

the Kingdom of Bahrain expressed to be assumed in this Clause shall be deemed to have been given only to the extent that the same do not violate the provisions of Articles 1033 to 1054 (Privileged Rights) of the Civil Code promulgated by Legislative Decree No. 19 of 2001 and the provisions of this Agreement shall be construed accordingly.

CHANGES TO PARTIES

27. CHANGES TO THE LENDERS

27.1 Assignments and transfers by the Lenders

Subject to this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders) and to Clause 28 (Restriction on Debt Purchase Transactions), a Lender (the “Existing Lender”) may:

(a) assign any of its rights; or

(b) transfer by novation any of its rights and obligations,

under any Finance Document 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 making, purchasing or investing in loans, securities or other financial assets (the “New Lender”); provided that no Investor Affiliate may be a New Lender without the prior consent of the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders).

27.2 Conditions of assignment or transfer

(a) An Existing Lender must obtain the prior written consent of the Company (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed, provided that the Company shall be deemed to have given its consent five (5) Business Days after the Company is given notice of the request unless it is expressly refused by the Company within that period) before it may make an assignment or transfer in accordance with Clause 27.1 (Assignments and transfers by the Lenders) unless the assignment or transfer is:

(i) to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender where such Affiliate is a Qualifying Bank;

(ii) if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund of the Existing Lender;

(iii) to any bank or financial institution on the Approved List which is a Qualifying Bank; or

(iv) made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing.

(b) In the event a Lender enters into an assignment or transfer without complying with the requirements of paragraph (a) above, neither its Commitments and/or participations (but only to the extent of such transfer or assignment) nor those of the relevant transferee or assignee shall be included for the purpose of calculating whether a certain percentage of Total Commitments or Utilisations has been obtained to approve an amendment, waiver or similar under any of the Finance Documents.

(c) The Approved List may be amended with the prior written consent of the Agent (acting on the instruction of the Majority Lenders) and the Company.

(d) For the avoidance of doubt, an amendment to the Approved List (including the removal of an institution from the Approved List), will be without prejudice to the effect of any assignment or transfer which is made in accordance with this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders) prior to the date of such amendment.

128

(e) The amount of the Existing Lender’s Commitment assigned or transferred must be a minimum of USD 5,000,000 (or its equivalent in other currencies) unless the assignment or transfer is:

(i) to another Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender;

(ii) if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund of the Existing Lender;

(iii) made at a time when an Event of Default is continuing; or

(iv) of all of the relevant Existing Lender’s Commitment (and not part thereof).

(f) For the purposes of paragraph (a) above:

(i) in the case of concurrent assignments, releases and accessions by an Existing Lender to two or more Related Funds or Affiliates, the participations in respect of the Commitments and Utilisations of these Related Funds and Affiliates shall be aggregated; and

(ii) if on the same date two or more Existing Lenders are assigning part of their rights under this Agreement to (and their corresponding obligations are being released and equivalent obligations acceded to by) the same person, then that person’s aggregate Commitments and Utilisations may be less than the relevant amount required pursuant to paragraph (b) above as a result of any single assignment, release and accession provided that as a result of all such assignments, releases and accessions on such date the aggregate Commitments of that person are not less than such amount.

(g) An assignment will only be effective on:

(i) receipt by the Agent (whether in the Assignment Agreement or otherwise) 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 and the other Secured Parties as it would have been under if it was an Original Lender;

(ii) the New Lender entering into the documentation required for it to accede as a party to the Intercreditor Agreement; and

(iii) the 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.

(h) A transfer will only be effective if the New Lender enters into the documentation required for it to accede as a party to the Intercreditor Agreement and if the procedure set out in Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer) is complied with.

(i) Any assignment or transfer by an Existing Lender to a New Lender shall only be effective if it transfers or assigns the Existing Lender’s share of the relevant Facility pro rata against the Existing Lender’s Available Commitment and its participations in Utilisations under that Facility.

(j) if there is any Utilisation outstanding (other than in respect of an Ancillary Facility which has been provided by the Existing Lender) at the time of an assignment or

129

transfer, such assignment or transfer of an Existing Lenders to a New Lender shall only be effective if the Existing Lender assigns or transfers (as appropriate) its share of the Facility pro rata to the Existing Lender’s Available Facility and its participation in such Utilisation to the New Lender.

(k) If:

(i) a Lender assigns or transfers 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, transfer 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 17 (Increased costs),

then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under the relevant Clause to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. This paragraph (k) shall not apply in respect of an assignment or transfer made in the ordinary course of the primary syndication of the Facility.

(l) Each New Lender, by executing the relevant Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement, 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 transfer or assignment 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.

27.3 Assignment or transfer fee

Unless the Agent otherwise agrees and excluding an assignment or transfer made in connection with primary syndication of the Facility, the New Lender shall, on the date upon which an assignment or transfer takes effect, pay to the Agent (for its own account) to a designated account of the Agent, a fee of USD 3,200.

(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.

(i) accept a re-transfer or re-assignment from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 27 (Changes to the Lenders); or

(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 or other member of the Group and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Obligor and the Existing Lender;

131

(iii) the Agent and any relevant Ancillary Lender, the Arranger, the Security Agent, the New Lender and the other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves and in respect of the Transaction Security as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights, benefits and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent and any relevant Ancillary Lender, the Arranger, the Security Agent, the other Lenders and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and

(d) Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 27.6 to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the relevant Obligor or unless in accordance with Clause 27.5 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by that Obligor from the obligations owed to that Obligor by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in Clause 27.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer).

(i) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery to the Agent;

(ii) 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 33 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

(iii) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) 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 33.6 (Partial payments).

(b) Paragraph (a) above shall not apply to any amount received or recovered by an Ancillary Lender in respect of any cash cover provided for the benefit of that Ancillary Lender.

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 Sharing Finance Party shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the

149

Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay) (the “Redistributed Amount”); and

(b) as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 33.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 33.4 (Clawback) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to Euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London).

33.3 Distributions to an Obligor

The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 34 (Set-Off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

33.4 Clawback

(i) first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Security Agent under those Finance Documents;

Each of the Finance Parties acknowledges that some or all of the Confidential Information is or may be price-sensitive information and that the use of such information may be regulated or prohibited by applicable legislation including securities law relating to insider dealing and market abuse and each of the Finance Parties undertakes not to use any Confidential Information for any unlawful purpose.

41. USURY SAVINGS

Notwithstanding any other provision herein, the aggregate interest rate charged with respect to any of the obligations arising under this Agreement, including all charges or fees in connection therewith deemed in the nature of interest under applicable law shall not exceed

165

the Highest Lawful Rate. If the rate of interest (determined without regard to the preceding sentence) under this Agreement at any time exceeds the Highest Lawful Rate, the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder shall bear interest at the Highest Lawful Rate until the total amount of interest due hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In addition, if when the Loans made hereunder are repaid in full the total interest due hereunder (taking into account the increase provided for above) is less than the total amount of interest which would have been due hereunder if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then to the extent permitted by law, the Company shall pay to the Agent an amount equal to the difference between the amount of interest paid and the amount of interest which would have been paid if the Highest Lawful Rate had at all times been in effect. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of Lenders and the Company to conform strictly to any applicable usury laws. Accordingly, if any Lender contracts for, charges, or receives any consideration which constitutes interest in excess of the Highest Lawful Rate, then any such excess shall be cancelled automatically and, if previously paid, shall at such Lender’s option be applied to the outstanding amount of the Loans made hereunder or be refunded to the Company.

42. COUNTERPARTS

Each Finance Document may be executed in any number of counterparts, and this has the same effect as if the signatures on the counterparts were on a single copy of the Finance Document.

166

SECTION 12

43. GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement and any non-contractual obligations arising out of or in connection with it are governed by English law and shall be construed and enforced in accordance with English law provided that Schedule 15 (Incurrence Covenants Schedule) shall be interpreted in accordance with the law of the State of New York without prejudice to the fact that this Agreement is governed by English law and that such Schedule 15 (Incurrence Covenants Schedule) shall also be enforced in accordance with English law.

44. ENFORCEMENT

(b) If any person appointed as process agent is unable for any reason to act as agent for service of process, the Company (on behalf of all the Obligors) must immediately (and in any event within five days of such event taking place) appoint another agent on terms acceptable to the Agent. Failing this, the Agent may appoint another agent for this purpose.

45. PATRIOT ACT

Each Finance Party and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Finance Party) hereby notifies each Obligor that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to

167

Note: The execution of this Assignment Agreement may not transfer a proportionate share of the Existing Lender’s interest in the Transaction Security in all jurisdictions. It is the responsibility of the New Lender to ascertain whether any other documents or other formalities are required to perfect a transfer of such a share in the Existing Lender’s Transaction Security in any jurisdiction and, if so, to arrange for execution of those documents and completion of those formalities.

9 Include only if New Lender comes within paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of Qualifying Lender in Clause 16.1 (Definitions).

SCHEDULE 12
AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

1. AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

1.1 The Company will use reasonable endeavours to assist in demonstrating that adequate corporate benefit accrues to the relevant Guarantor Company (as defined below).

1.2 The guarantees and security to be provided will be given in accordance with certain Agreed Security Principles. The Company and the Finance Parties have agreed and acknowledged that their rights and obligations under the Finance Documents, the SSRCF Finance Documents and the Senior Secured Notes Documents (together, the “Secured Documents”) in respect of (i) the giving or taking of guarantees, (ii) the giving and taking of security and (iii) all of the rights and obligations associated with such giving or taking of guarantees and security, shall be subject to and limited by these Agreed Security Principles.

1.3 The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective guarantees and security from all Material Companies and other members of the Group required to give guarantees and security (the “Guarantor Companies”) in every jurisdiction in which Guarantor Companies are or may in the future be located. In particular:

(a) general statutory limitations, financial assistance, capital maintenance, corporate benefit, fraudulent preference, fraudulent conveyance, preference, “thin capitalisation” rules, retention of title claims and similar principles may limit the ability of a Guarantor Company to provide a guarantee or security or may require that the guarantee or security be limited by an amount or otherwise (including any legal fees, registration fees, stamp duty taxes and any other fees or related costs). The Company shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such limitation to the extent reasonably practicable. If, following the reasonable endeavours of the Company to overcome such limitations any such limit continues to apply, the guarantees and security provided will be limited to the maximum amount which the relevant member of the Group may provide having regard to applicable law (including any jurisprudence) and otherwise so as to minimise stamp duty, notarisation, registration tax or other applicable fees, taxes and duties;

(b) the giving of a guarantee, the granting and the terms of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required to the extent it would (or could) incur any cost (including any legal fees, notarisation, registration or other applicable fees, stamp duty or other duties, taxes and any other fees or related costs) to the Group which are disproportionate to the benefit for the Finance Parties of obtaining such guarantees or security;

(c) where a class of assets to be secured includes material and immaterial assets, if the cost of granting security over the immaterial assets is disproportionate to the benefit of such security, security will be granted over the material assets only;

(d) it is expressly acknowledged that in certain jurisdictions it may be either impossible or impractical to grant guarantees or create security over certain categories of assets, in which event such guarantees will not be granted and security will not be taken over such assets provided that the Company shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such obstacle;

(e) unless granted under a global security document governed by the law of the jurisdiction of a Guarantor Company or under English law all security (other than

209

share security over its Subsidiaries) shall be governed by the law of the jurisdiction of incorporation of that Guarantor Company;

(f) any assets subject to third party arrangements which may prevent those assets from being charged (or assigned by way of security) will be excluded from any relevant Security Document, provided that (subject as otherwise set out in these Agreed Security Principles) reasonable endeavours to obtain consent or waiver to charging any such assets shall be used by the Group if the relevant asset is material and the Company determines that such endeavours will not jeopardise commercial relationships with third parties;

(g) Guarantor Companies will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant Guarantor Company or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of their directors or contravene any legal prohibition or would reasonably be expected to result in a risk of personal or criminal liability on the part of any director or other officer of such Guarantor Company or of any member of the Group provided that the relevant Group member shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such obstacle;

(h) no perfection action will be required in a jurisdiction where the Guarantor Company is not located;

(i) perfection of security, when required, and other legal formalities will be completed as soon as practicable and, in any event, within the time periods specified in the Secured Documents therefor or (if earlier or to the extent no such time periods are specified in the Secured Documents) within the time periods specified by applicable law in order to ensure due perfection;

(j) the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or the perfection of the security granted and the terms of the security shall not be required if it would have a material and adverse effect on the ability of the relevant Guarantor Company to conduct its operations and business (including its tax arrangements) in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted or not prohibited by the Secured Documents; and

(k) where prohibited by the underlying joint venture or partnership agreement only, pledges over shares or other interests or participations in joint ventures or the assets owned by such joint ventures or joint venture vehicles will not be required; and

(l) guarantee limitations may mean that access to the assets of a Guarantor Company is limited, in which case, any asset security granted by that Guarantor Company shall be limited to the maximum recoverable amount under the guarantee.

1.4 Reasonable legal fees, disbursements, registration costs, taxes, notary fees and other costs and expenses related to the guarantees and security incurred by legal counsel to the Company and by legal counsel to the Facility Agent or Security Agent will be paid (or payment thereof procured) by the Company.

2. GUARANTORS AND SECURITY

2.1 Subject to the due execution of all relevant Security Documents, completion of relevant perfection formalities within statutorily prescribed time limits, payment of all registration fees and documentary taxes, any other rights arising by operation of law, obtaining any foreign legal opinions and subject to any qualifications which may be set out in the Secured Documents and any relevant legal opinion obtained and subject to the requirements of the Agreed Security Principles, it is agreed that each guarantee and security will be an upstream, cross—stream and downstream guarantee and each guarantee and, without prejudice to the

210

principles set forth in paragraph 1.2 above, security will be for all liabilities of the Obligors under the Secured Documents in accordance with, and subject to, the requirements of the Agreed Security Principles and/or any applicable law in each relevant jurisdiction.

2.2 To the extent possible under the relevant applicable law, all security shall consist of a single set of security interests and shall be given in favour of the Security Agent and not the Finance Parties individually. “Parallel debt” provisions will be used where necessary or convenient to ensure that security is given in favour of the Security Agent and not the Finance Parties individually. Such provisions will be contained in the Intercreditor Agreement and not the individual security documents (unless and to the extent required under the applicable local laws). To the extent possible under the relevant applicable law, there should be no action required to be taken in relation to the guarantees or security when any Lender transfers any of its participation in the Facility to a new Lender.

2.3 No member of the Group or the Company shall be required to pay the cost of any re—execution, notarisation, acknowledgment, re—registration, amendment or related perfection requirement for any guarantee or security or any related cost or fee, and no action shall be required to be taken by any member of the Group or the Company in relation thereto, on any transfer by any Finance Party.

3. SCOPE

3.1 No guarantee will be provided by the Parent. The security provided by the Parent will be limited to a pledge over its shares in the Company and any shareholder loans into the Company.

3.2 No guarantee or security will be provided by any member of the Group incorporated in, or by any member of the Group over any assets situated in, any of the following jurisdictions:

(a) The People’s Republic of China (“PRC”) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by or over any wholly foreign owned enterprise located, operating or carrying on business in the PRC (a “WFOE”), or any security over any shares or other interests in any WFOE); and

(b) The Czech Republic; or

(d) The Kingdom of Thailand in respect of a member of the Group operating a school and such school itself (except that the above shall not apply to share security granted in respect of such member but excluding a Subsidiary incorporated in the Kingdom of Thailand which operates a school in the Kingdom of Thailand),

(together, the “Excluded Jurisdictions”).

3.3 The grant and the terms of security over and in relation to the shares in Collège Alpin Beau-Soleil SA and Collège Champittet SA (whether directly or indirectly) and their respective assets shall be subject to these Agreed Security Principles generally, as well as to the applicable sale and purchase agreements (the “Swiss School SPAs”) as set out under the Intercreditor Agreement. No assignment or other security shall be required to be granted in relation to the rights of any member of the Group (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any Holding Company of any member of the Group) under or in respect of the Swiss School SPAs.

211

4. TERMS OF GUARANTEES AND SECURITY DOCUMENTS

The following principles will be reflected in the terms of any guarantee or security taken as part of this transaction:

(a) The security shall be first ranking, to the extent possible.

(b) Subject to the Intercreditor Agreement, no claims will be made under guarantees, and security will not be enforceable, until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (unremedied or unwaived) and notice has been served under the “acceleration” provisions of the relevant Secured Document (an “Enforcement Event”);

(i) no notices of pledges or security interests will be required unless, under the law applicable to such security, such notice is required to be delivered to perfect the security or at the Security Agent’s reasonable request following an Event of Default which is continuing;

(ii) notification of receivables security to debtors (not being members of the Group) will only be given if an Enforcement Event has occurred;

(c) the provisions of each security document will not be unduly burdensome on the Guarantor Company or interfere with the operation of its business (including its tax arrangements) in the ordinary course and will be limited to those required to create, perfect or maintain effective security and shall not impose commercial obligations;

(d) information, such as lists of assets, will be provided only if and to the extent required by local law to be provided to perfect or register the relevant security interests and, unless required to be provided by local law more frequently, will be provided at the Security Agent’s reasonable request following an Event of Default which is continuing (unremedied or unwaived);

(e) the security documents will, where possible and practical (but subject to the other provisions set out in this Schedule and consistent with market practice in the relevant jurisdiction), automatically create security over future assets of the same type as those already secured;

(f) prior to an Enforcement Event, the security documents shall operate only to create security and not to impose new commercial obligations. Accordingly (i) they will not contain representations or undertakings unless these are required for the creation or perfection or protection of the security and (ii) they shall not repeat or extend any of the clauses set out in this Agreement, the Intercreditor Agreement or any other Secured Document, such as those relating to notices, insurance, further assurance, cost and expenses, indemnities, tax gross up, distribution of proceeds and release of security, unless and to the extent required by applicable law or market standard in the relevant jurisdiction for the creation or perfection or protection of security;

(g) in respect of share pledges, until an Enforcement Event, the pledgors shall be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights to any shares pledged by them and shall be permitted to receive and retain dividends on pledged shares/pay dividends upstream on pledged shares to the extent permitted under any Secured Document with the proceeds to be available to the Group;

(h) the Security Agent shall only be able to exercise any power or attorney granted to it under the security documents following the occurrence of an Enforcement Event or, prior to an Enforcement Event if the relevant Guarantor Company has failed to

(i) prior to an Enforcement Event, the Security Agent shall not have any right to block any funds being transferred between or by Group members;

(j) the security documents should not operate so as to prevent transactions which are permitted or not prohibited under the Secured Documents or to require additional consents or authorisations;

(k) without prejudice to the other terms of the Finance Documents, where an entity is being disposed of as permitted or not prohibited by this Agreement (including a disposal permitted by requisite consent) all guarantees by that entity in favour of the Finance Parties and others and all security in favour of the Finance Parties and others over the shares of that entity and the assets owned by that entity shall be released immediately before completion of such disposal;

(l) security over any asset disposed of in compliance with this Agreement, any guarantee granted by a member of the Group disposed of in compliance with this Agreement and any security over the assets of any such member of the Group shall all be released by the Security Agent no later than completion of such disposal;

(m) supplemental pledges shall be entered into where required by local law to create or perfect security; and

(n) the security documents will not accrue interest on any amount in respect of which interest is accruing under this Agreement.

5. BANK ACCOUNTS

5.1 If a Guarantor Company grants security over its bank accounts it shall be free to deal with those accounts in the ordinary course of its business until an Enforcement Event.

5.2 If required by local law to create or perfect the security, notice of the security will be served on the account bank within 5 Business Days of the security being granted and the Guarantor Company shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice with 20 Business Days of service. If the Guarantor Company has used its reasonable endeavours but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement its obligation to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of that 20 Business Day period. Irrespective of whether notice of the security is required for perfection, if the service of notice would prevent the Guarantor Company from using a bank account in the course of its business no notice of security shall be served until the occurrence of an Enforcement Event.

5.3 Any security over bank accounts shall be subject to any prior security interests (including but not limited to rights of set-off) in favour of the account bank which are created either by law or in the standard terms and conditions of the account bank. The notice of security may request these are waived by the account bank but the Guarantor Company shall not be required to change its banking arrangements if these security interests are not waived or only partially waived.

5.4 If required under local law, and consistent with local standard market practice, security over bank accounts will be registered subject to the general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

213

6. FIXED ASSETS

6.1 If a Guarantor Company grants security over its material fixed assets it shall be free to deal with those assets in the ordinary course of its business and otherwise as permitted under any Finance Document until an Enforcement Event.

6.2 No notice whether to third parties or by attaching a notice to the fixed assets shall be prepared or given until an Enforcement Event.

6.3 If required under local law, and consistent with local standard market practice, security over fixed assets will be registered subject to the general principles set out in these Agreed Security Principles.

7. INSURANCE POLICIES

7.1 If required by local law to create or perfect the security, notice of the security will be served on the insurance provider within 20 Business Days of the security being granted and the Guarantor Company shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice with 20 Business Days of service.

Debt under the Facility and the SSRCF will be deemed to have been Incurred in reliance on the exception provided by paragraph (a) of paragraph 1.2 above and may not be reclassified. In addition, any item of Debt initially classified as Incurred pursuant to one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in paragraphs (b) through (v) of paragraph 1.2 above, or entitled to be Incurred pursuant to the paragraph 1.1 above, may later be reclassified (and divided) by the Company in its sole discretion such that it will be deemed as having been Incurred pursuant to such new clause or clauses or paragraph 1.1 above to the extent that such reclassified Debt could be Incurred pursuant to such new clause or clauses or paragraph 1.1 above at the time of such reclassification.

1.4 Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph 1, the maximum amount of Debt that the Company may Incur pursuant to this paragraph 1 shall not be deemed to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rates of currencies.

1.6 For purposes of determining compliance with this paragraph 1, the principal amount of Debt issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of the liability in respect thereof determined in conformity with IFRS.

225

1.7 The Company will not Incur any Debt (including Permitted Debt) that is subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Company unless such Debt is also contractually subordinated in right of payment to the Senior Secured Notes on substantially identical terms; provided, however, that no Debt will be deemed to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Debt of the Company solely by virtue of being unsecured or by virtue of being secured on a junior Lien basis.
