COSTS OF UTILISATION

6. INTEREST

6.1 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:

6.1.1 in respect to a US Dollar Loan, the applicable:

(a) Margin; and

(b) LIBOR.

6.1.2 in respect to a RMB Loan, the applicable RMB Benchmark Interest Rate.

6.2 Payment of interest

The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on each Loan on each Interest Payment Date.

6.3 Default interest

6.3.1 If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the Unpaid Sum from the due date to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which is, subject to sub-clause 6.3.2 and 6.3.3 below, three per cent. (3%) higher than the rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted part of any Loan in the currency of the Unpaid Sum for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Lender. Any interest accruing under this Clause 6.3 shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Lender.

6.3.2 If any Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not an Interest Payment Date relating to that Loan:

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

(b) the rate of interest applying to the Unpaid Sum during the first Interest Period shall be three per cent. (3%) higher than the rate which would have applied if the Unpaid Sum had not become due.

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

17

7.1.2 Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the preceding Interest Payment Date.

7.1.3 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 or if such Interest Period is the final Interest Period).

8. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

8.1 Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 8.2 (Market Disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by 11:00 a.m. on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

8.2 Market disruption

8.2.1 If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(a) the Margin; and

(b) the higher of (1) the rate notified by the Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before 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 (2) in relation to a Market Disruption Event under sub-clause 8.2.2 below, LIBOR.

8.2.2 In this Agreement “Market Disruption Event” means:

(a) at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available or the Screen Rate is zero or negative and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Lender to determine LIBOR for Dollars for the relevant Interest Period; or

18

(b) before noon on the business day immediately following the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, that the cost to the Lender of obtaining matching deposits in the London interbank market would be in excess of LIBOR.

8.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

8.3.1 If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Lender or the Borrower so requires, the Lender and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

8.3.2 If no agreement as to a substantive basis is achieved and then (so long as it continues) the rate of interest notified by the Lender shall apply.

8.4 Break Costs

8.4.1 The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Lender, pay to the Lender any Break Costs attributable to all or any part of any Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the relevant Interest Payment Date for that Loan or Unpaid Sum.

8.4.2 The Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

9. FEES

9.1 Front-end fee
