6

8.	Payments
8.1	All payments made by each Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be in sterling and in immediately available cleared funds to the Lenders at the account to be notified by the Lenders to the relevant Obligor.
8.2	If any payment becomes due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date of such payment will be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, or, if that Business Day falls in the following calendar month, such due date shall be the immediately preceding Business Day.
8.3	All payments made by each Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be made in full, without set-off, counterclaim or condition, and free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding, provided that, if an Obligor is required by law or regulation to make such deduction or withholding, it shall:

	8.3.1	ensure that the deduction or withholding does not exceed the minimum amount legally required;
	8.3.2	pay to the relevant taxation or other authorities, as appropriate, the full amount of the deduction or withholding;

8.3.4 pay to the Lenders such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net full amount received by the Lenders after the required deduction or withholding is equal to the amount that the Lenders would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

8.4 If an Obligor makes a payment in accordance with clause 8.3 (Tax Payment) and the Lenders determine that:

	8.4.1	a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of, any Tax (Tax Credit) is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment is a part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and

	the Lenders shall pay an amount to the relevant Obligor that the Lenders determine will leave the Lenders (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.

8.5 Without prejudice and subject to clause 8.3, the parties hereto will, to the extent they are entitled under applicable law, use reasonable endeavours to apply for relief under a double tax treaty to minimise any withholding obligations and to obtain and utilise any Tax Credit as referred to in clause 8.4. The parties will provide all documentation as reasonably requested by the other party to minimise any withholding obligations and to enable a Lender to obtain a credit for tax withheld.
