24.1.1

The Lenders hereby agree that in the cases expressly contemplated by this Agreement or other Finance Documents, the Lenders may exercise their rights under this Agreement or perform any actions solely with the consent of the Majority Lenders or all Lenders ("Consent").

24.1.2

The Lenders shall take a decision on granting Consent by holding a vote, the procedure for which is established by this Clause 24.1. In this case, the provisions of Chapter 9¹ (Decisions of Meetings) of the Civil Code shall not apply.

The Notice of Voting must indicate the deadline by which the Lenders have to send notices containing the voting results of each of the Lenders regarding the Issues put to a Vote ("Lender Decision Notice"). This deadline may not be less than 5 (five) Business Days, except when the circumstances of the Issues put to a Vote are such that the voting of Xxxxxxx needs to take place sooner.

24.1.5

The Lender Decision Notice must be signed by an authorised person of the relevant Lender and contain the Lender’s unequivocal answer as to whether such Lender votes for or against the granting of Consent on each of the relevant Issues put to a Vote. The Facility Administrator is not obliged to verify the authority of the person who signed the Lender Decision Notice, and has the right to presume that such person was authorised unless the relevant Lender notified the Facility Administrator prior to the date on which the relevant Lender Decision Notice was sent that such person is not an authorised representative of the relevant Lender.

24.1.6

If any Lender (other than the Lender that is the Facility Administrator) did not send the relevant Lender Decision Notice within the deadline specified in the Notice of Voting, the Facility Administrator shall consider that such Lender voted against the granting of Consent on the relevant Issues put to a Vote.

put to a Vote within 5 (five) Business Days, and shall send a notice to the Lenders and the Borrower containing the voting results on each of the Issues put to a Vote ("Voting Results Notice").

24.1.8

If, in accordance with the provisions of the Finance Documents, the Consent on an Issue put to a Vote requires the votes of the Majority Lenders (but not all Lenders), the Facility Administrator shall (regardless of the expiration of the deadline established in the relevant Notice of Voting) send a Voting Results Notice within 5 (five) Business Days after receipt of the Lender Decision Notices, from which it follows that the Majority Lenders voted in favour of granting such Consent or, that Xxxxxxx, the votes of which are sufficient to prevent the Majority Lenders from granting such Consent, voted against granting such Consent.

24.1.9

If the Lenders whose votes are sufficient to provide such Consent in accordance with the Finance Documents, voted in favour of granting the Consent, such Consent shall be deemed to have come into effect at the time when the Facility Administrator sends the Voting Results Notice, unless a later date is specified in the corresponding Voting Results Notice.

24.1.10

The Notices of Voting, Lender Decision Notices and Voting Results Notices shall be sent by email and/or by fax to the email addresses or fax numbers indicated in Clause 26.2 (Addresses).

The Facility Administrator shall only be liable to the Parties for direct losses proven in court, caused by the Facility Administrator intentionally or as a result of gross negligence.

24.2	Appointment of the Facility Administrator

24.2.1

Each Finance Party (with the exception of the Lender that performs the functions of the Facility Administrator) hereby appoints the Facility Administrator as its agent and instructs it to perform the actions contemplated by the Finance Documents on behalf of and at the expense of that Finance Party.

24.2.2

For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties confirm that the Lender acting as the Facility Administrator has the same rights and obligations under the Finance Documents as any other Lender, and has the right to exercise these rights, including the right to vote when Consents are provided, and to fulfil the obligations as if it were not a Facility Administrator.

24.2.3

The performance by the Facility Administrator of its obligations under the Agreement does not prevent the Facility Administrator from executing any banking operations with any member of the Group, including maintaining bank accounts, granting loans and attracting deposits.

24.2.4

If the indemnification received from the Obligors does not cover the amount of expenses or losses incurred by the Facility Administrator as a result of acting as the Facility Administrator in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents, the Facility Administrator has the right to file a claim against the Lenders (except for the Lender acting as the Facility Administrator) and each Lender (except for the Lender acting as the Facility Administrator) shall, within 10 (ten) Business Days from date on which the Facility Administrator's claim was filed, indemnify it in the amount corresponding to the Lender’s Proportional Share, for any documented expenses or losses incurred by the Facility Administrator (except in the event of the Facility Administrator's gross negligence or wilful misconduct) as a result of acting as the Facility Administrator in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents, to the extent not covered by the amount of indemnification received from any Obligor.

24.5	Arranger

The Arranger does not bear any obligations in relation to other Parties, unless this is expressly stipulated in the Finance Documents.

25.	PAYMENT MECHANISM

25.1	General Provisions

The Borrower shall procure that it, as well as each other Obligor, make payments in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 25.

25.2	Payments to the Facility Administrator

Unless otherwise expressly stipulated in this Agreement, on each date on which an Obligor or Finance Party must make a payment to a Party under the terms of a Finance Document, such Obligor or Finance Party must transfer the relevant amount into the Facility Administrator's Account (unless the context of a Finance Document otherwise requires) with valuation on the date of the payment due date. All payments to be made by an Obligor under a Finance Document must be transferred into the Facility Administrator's Account no later than 17:00. Payments of an Obligor that are received into the Facility Administrator’s Account later than the specified time shall be considered received on the following Business Day.

25.3	Distribution of funds by the Facility Administrator

25.3.1

The funds received by the Facility Administrator from an Obligor in fulfilment of its obligations to the Lenders under a Finance Document, as well as those received from the Facility Administrator as a result of enforcement under Security Agreements, shall be distributed among the Lenders according to each Lender's Proportional Share.

25.3.2

Each amount of funds transferred into the Facility Administrator's Account for another Party shall be transferred by the Facility Administrator no later than 11:00 of the next Business Day to the Party for which this amount of funds was intended, into an account whose details shall be provided to the Facility Administrator by the relevant Party at least 5 (five) Business Days before the payment date. The Facility Administrator shall transfer this amount to the relevant Party after it has determined that it has received the required amount in full.

25.4	Partial payments

If the Facility Administrator receives an amount that is not sufficient to fully repay all amounts payable by an Obligor under the terms of the Finance Documents at the relevant time, the Facility Administrator shall use that amount to repay that Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents in the following order of priority, unless otherwise provided by law:

25.4.1

firstly, to indemnify the Finance Parties for the expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of their claims against the Obligor;

25.4.2

25.4.3

thirdly, to repay the Facility Outstanding owed on the relevant date;

25.4.4

fourthly, for the payment of fees due to the Finance Parties;

25.4.5

fifthly, for the payment of accrued default interest; and

25.4.6

sixthly, for the payment of any other amounts due from the Obligor under the terms of the Finance Documents.

25.5	Payments not through the Facility Administrator

The Obligor's transfer of any funds towards payments due to a Finance Party under Finance Documents, without going through the Facility Administrator's Account, does not constitute proper fulfilment by the Obligor of its obligations under Finance Documents. If the Lender receives any payment owed to it under a Finance Document directly from the Obligor (and not from the Facility Administrator), such Lender shall transfer the amount received from the Obligor into the Facility Administrator’s Account on the same Business Day for distribution among all Finance Parties according to their Proportional Share in the manner prescribed by Clause 25.4 (Partial payments). Thereafter, the Obligor will be deemed to have fulfilled its payment obligations under a Finance Document only to the extent of the amount received by all Finance Parties from the Facility Administrator in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 25.5.

25.6	No set-off by Obligors

The Borrower shall make (and shall procure that other Obligors make) any payments under the Finance Documents without offsetting any uniform counter-claims that the relevant Obligor may have against any Finance Party.

25.7	Payment currency

The Obligors shall make all payments under Finance Documents in Roubles, except for the indemnification of the Finance Parties for expenses incurred in connection with Finance Documents, which shall be paid by the Obligors in the same currency in which they were incurred, provided that this is not inconsistent with the currency legislation of the Russian Federation ("Agreement Currency"). The monetary obligations of the Obligors shall be deemed fulfilled only if the relevant amounts have been received by the Facility Administrator in the Agreement Currency. If any amounts under a Finance Document are received towards the Obligors’ obligations in a currency other than the Agreement Currency, and the Facility Administrator converts the amount received into the Agreement Currency, the Borrower shall indemnify (and procure that other Obligors indemnify) the Facility Administrator for its expenses related to converting the amount received into the Agreement Currency (at the internal rate of the Facility Administrator), and also indemnify the difference between the amount due from the Obligors in the Agreement Currency, and the amount received by the Facility Administrator as a result of the conversion of the funds received from the Borrower into the Agreement Currency.

25.8	Payment due date

25.8.1

If payment under a Finance Document falls due on a non-Business Day, the next Business Day shall be considered the payment deadline.
