(b) LIBOR.

8.2 Payment of interest

Except where it is provided to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company must pay accrued interest on the Loan made to it on the last day of each Term and also, if the Term is longer than six months, on the dates falling at six-monthly intervals after the first day of that Term.

(a) If the Company fails to pay any amount payable by it under the Finance Documents, it must immediately on demand by the Facility Agent pay interest on the overdue amount from its due date up to the date of actual payment, both before, on and after judgment.

(b) Interest on an overdue amount is payable at a rate determined by the Facility Agent to be one per cent. per annum above the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted the Loan in the currency of the overdue amount. For this purpose, the Facility Agent may (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders):

(i) select successive Terms of any duration of up to three months; and

15

(ii) determine the appropriate Rate Fixing Day for that Term.

(c) Notwithstanding paragraph (b) above, if the overdue amount is a principal amount of the Loan and becomes due and payable before the last day of its current Term, then:

(ii) the rate of interest on the overdue amount for that first Term will be one per cent. per annum above the rate then payable on the Loan.

After the expiry of the first Term for that overdue amount, the rate on the overdue amount will be calculated in accordance with paragraph (b) above.

(d) Interest (if unpaid) on an overdue amount will be compounded with that overdue amount at the end of each of its Terms but will remain immediately due and payable.

10.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a market disruption event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Company so requires, the Company and the Facility Agent must enter into negotiations for a period of not more than 30 days with a view to agreeing an alternative basis for determining the rate of interest and/or funding for the affected Loan.

(b) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party must also at the same time reimburse and indemnify (as the case may be) that Finance Party against all VAT incurred by the Finance Party in respect of those costs or expenses but only to the extent that the Finance Party (acting reasonably) determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of the VAT.

Where possible and at its sole discretion, the Facility Agent will endeavour to notify the intended recipient of funds and/or the party making such payment of the existence of such circumstances. For the purpose of this Clause 20.12, the Facility Agent’s Group means the Facility Agent, its subsidiaries and associated companies.

20.13 Resignation of the Facility Agent

(a) The Facility Agent may resign and appoint any of its Affiliates as successor Facility Agent by giving notice to the other Finance Parties and the Company.

(b) Alternatively, the Facility Agent may, without giving any reason therefor and without being responsible for any liabilities incurred by such resignation, resign by giving 30 days’ notice to the Finance Parties and the Company, in which case the Majority Lenders (after consultation with the Company but regardless of whether a mutual agreement is reached) may appoint a successor Facility Agent.

(c) If no successor Facility Agent has been appointed under paragraph (b) above within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the Facility Agent (after consultation with the Company but regardless of whether a mutual agreement is reached) may appoint a successor Facility Agent.

(d) The resignation of the Facility Agent and the appointment of any successor Facility Agent will both become effective only when the successor Facility Agent notifies all the Parties that it accepts its appointment.

On giving the notification the successor Facility Agent will succeed to the position of the Facility Agent and the term Facility Agent will mean the successor Facility Agent.

(e) The retiring Facility Agent must, at its own cost:

(i) make available to the successor Facility Agent those documents and records and provide any assistance as the successor Facility Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents; and

44

(ii) enter into and deliver to the successor Facility Agent those documents and effect any registrations as may be required for the transfer or assignment of all of its rights and benefits under the Finance Documents to the successor Facility Agent.

(f) Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause will continue to benefit the retiring Facility Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it in connection with the Finance Documents while it was the Facility Agent, and, subject to paragraph (f) above, it will have no further obligations under any Finance Document.

(g) After consultation with the Company, the Majority Lenders may, with reasonable cause, by written notice of not less than 30 days to the Facility Agent, require it to resign under paragraph (b) above.

This is in addition to any amount in respect of fees or expenses paid or payable to the Facility Agent under any other term of the Finance Documents.

20.16 Notice period

Where this Agreement specifies a minimum period of notice to be given to the Facility Agent, the Facility Agent may, at its discretion, accept a shorter notice period.

Accounts maintained by a Finance Party in connection with this Agreement are prima facie evidence of the matters to which they relate for the purpose of any litigation or arbitration proceedings.

to another bank or financial institution (the New Lender) without the consent of the Company provided that (where the assignment or transfer is not made by the Original Lender) the Existing Lender has given the Company no less than 15 days prior written notice of such assignment or transfer.

26.3 Other conditions to assignment or transfer

(a) The Facility Agent is not obliged to enter into a Transfer Certificate or otherwise give effect to an assignment or transfer until it has completed all customer due diligence or any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any relevant person or other legal requirements to its satisfaction.

26.5 Procedure for transfer using a Transfer Certificate

(i) the Existing Lender and the New Lender deliver to the Facility Agent a duly completed Transfer Certificate; and

(ii) the Facility Agent enters into it.

(c) On the Transfer Date:

(i) the New Lender will assume the rights and obligations of the Existing Lender expressed to be the subject of the novation in the Transfer Certificate in substitution for the Existing Lender;

(A) any Finance Document or any other document;

(B) any statement or information (whether written or oral) made in or supplied in connection with any Finance Document, or

(C) any observance by the Company of its obligations under any Finance Document or other document,

51

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

(b) Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

(i) has made, and will continue to make, its own independent appraisal of all risks arising under or in connection with the Finance Documents (including the financial condition and affairs of the Company and its related entities and the nature and extent of any recourse against any Party or its assets) in connection with its participation in this Agreement;

(b) as a result of circumstances existing at the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, the Company would be obliged to pay a Tax Payment or an Increased Cost,

27. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION

(a) Each Finance Party must keep confidential any information supplied to it by or on behalf of the Company in connection with the Finance Documents. However, a Finance Party is entitled to disclose information:

53

28. SET-OFF

A Finance Party may, for so long as an Event of Default is outstanding, set off any matured obligation owed to it by the Company under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any obligation (whether or not matured) owed by that Finance Party to the Company, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

29. PRO RATA SHARING
