Section 3.02 Acceleration; Rescission and Annulment.

 

If one or more Events of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then, and in each and every such case (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 3.01(h) or Section 3.01(i) with respect to the Company), unless the principal amount of the Note shall have already become due and payable, the Holder by notice in writing to the Company, may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest on, the Note (including any PIK Interest) plus the Applicable Premium to be due and payable immediately, and upon any such declaration the same shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may also pursue any other available remedy in respect of any such Event of Default. If an Event of Default specified in in Section 3.01(h) or Section 3.01(i) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, the Note (including any PIK Interest) plus the Applicable Premium shall become and shall automatically be immediately due and payable without any further act of any other party hereto. Any Applicable Premium or other premium payable above shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by the Holder as the result of the early redemption and the Company agrees that it is reasonable under the circumstances currently existing. THE COMPANY EXPRESSLY WAIVES (TO THE FULLEST EXTENT IT MAY LAWFULLY DO SO) THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE APPLICABLE PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY SUCH ACCELERATION. The Company expressly agrees (to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so) that: (A) the Applicable Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel; (B) the Applicable Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made; (C) there has been a course of conduct between the Holder and the Company giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Premium; and (D) the Company shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to in this paragraph. The Company expressly acknowledges that its agreement to pay the Applicable Premium to the Holder as herein described is a material inducement to the Holder to purchase the Note.

 

12

 

 

The immediately preceding paragraph, however, is subject to the conditions that if, at any time after the principal of, premium, if any, on and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Note shall have been so declared due and payable, and before any judgment or decree for the payment of the monies due shall have been obtained or entered as hereinafter provided, the Company shall hold in trust a sum sufficient to pay installments of premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest upon the Note and the principal of the Note if it has become due otherwise than by acceleration (with interest on overdue installments of accrued and unpaid interest to the extent that payment of such interest is enforceable under applicable law, and on such principal at the rate borne by the Note at such time), and if (1) rescission would not conflict with any judgment or decree of a court of competent jurisdiction and (2) any and all existing Events of Default hereunder, other than the uncured nonpayment of the principal of, premium, if any, on and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Note that shall have become due solely by such acceleration, then and in every such case (except as provided in the immediately succeeding sentence) the Holder by written notice to the Company, may waive all Defaults or Events of Default with respect to the Note and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences and such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose hereof; but no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any subsequent Default or Event of Default, or shall impair any right consequent thereon. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no such waiver or rescission and annulment shall extend to or shall affect any Default or Event of Default resulting from (i) the nonpayment of the principal (including the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price and Tax Redemption Price, if applicable) of, or accrued and unpaid interest on, the Note, or (ii) a failure to repurchase or redeem the Note when required.

 

Section 3.03 Additional Interest.

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Note to the contrary, to the extent the Company elects, the sole remedy for an Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 2.05(a) hereof shall after the occurrence of such an Event of Default consist exclusively of the right to receive Additional Interest on the Note at a rate equal to 2.00% per annum of the principal amount of the Note outstanding for each day during the period beginning on, and including, the date on which such Event of Default first occurs and ending on the earlier of (x) the date on which such Event of Default is cured or validly waived in accordance with this Section 3 and (y) the three hundred sixtieth (360th) day immediately following, and including, the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. If the Company so elects, such Additional Interest shall be payable in the same manner and on the same dates as the stated interest payable on the Note and shall accrue from, and including, the date on which the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 2.05(a) hereof first occurs to, and including, the three hundred sixtieth (360th) day thereafter (or such earlier date on which such Event of Default is cured or validly waived in accordance with this Section 3). On the three hundred sixty-first (361st) day after such Event of Default (if the Event of Default relating to the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 2.05(a) hereof is not cured or validly waived in accordance with this Section 3 prior to such three hundred sixty-first (361st) day), such Additional Interest shall cease to accrue and the Note shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 3.02. The provisions of this paragraph will not affect the rights of the Holder in the event of the occurrence of any Event of Default other than the Company’s failure to comply with its obligations as set forth in Section 2.05(a) hereof. In the event the Company does not elect to pay Additional Interest following an Event of Default in accordance with this Section 3.03 or the Company has elected to make such payment but does not pay the Additional Interest when due, the Note shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 3.02.

 

13

 

 

In order to elect to pay Additional Interest as the sole remedy during the first three hundred sixty (360) days after the occurrence of any Event of Default described in the immediately preceding paragraph, the Company must notify the Holder of the Note in an Officer’s Certificate of such election on or before the open of business on the Business Day immediately succeeding the date on which such Event of Default first occurs. Upon the failure to timely give such notice, the Note shall be immediately subject to acceleration as provided in Section 3.02. The Officer’s Certificate under this Section 3.03 shall state (i) the amount of such Additional Interest that is payable and (ii) the date on which such Additional Interest is payable.

 

Section 3.04 Payments of Note on Default; Suit Therefor.

 

If an Event of Default described in clause (a) of Section 3.01 shall have occurred and be continuing, the Company shall, hold in trust for the benefit of the Holder of the Note, the whole amount then due and payable on the Note for principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, with interest on any overdue principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, at the rate borne by the Note at such time. If the Company shall fail to hold in trust such amounts forthwith upon such demand, the Holder may institute a judicial proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, may prosecute such proceeding to judgment or final decree and may enforce the same against the Company or any other obligor upon the Note and collect the moneys adjudged or decreed to be payable in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Company or any other obligor upon the Note, wherever situated.

 

In the event there shall be pending proceedings for the bankruptcy or for the reorganization of the Company or any other obligor on the Note under Title 11 of the United States Code, or any other applicable law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Company or such other obligor, the property of the Company or such other obligor, or in the event of any other judicial proceedings relative to the Company or such other obligor, or to the creditors or property of the Company or such other obligor, irrespective of whether the principal amount of the Note shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceedings or otherwise, to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole principal amount and amount of accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in respect of the Note, and, in case of any judicial proceedings, to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents and to take such other actions as it may deem necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Holder allowed in such judicial proceedings relative to the Company or any other obligor on the Note, its or their creditors, or its or their property, and to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims, and to distribute the same; and any receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, custodian or similar official is hereby authorized by the Holder to make such payments directly to the Holder. To the extent that such payment of reasonable compensation, expenses, advances and disbursements out of the estate in any such proceedings shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, monies, securities and other property that the Holder of the Note may be entitled to receive in such proceedings, whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

Section 3.06 [Reserved].

 

Section 3.07 Remedies Cumulative and Continuing.

 

Except as provided in Section 3.03, all powers and remedies given by this Section 3 to the Holder shall, to the extent permitted by law, be deemed cumulative and not exclusive of any thereof or of any other powers and remedies available to the Holder of the Note, by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to enforce the performance or observance of the covenants and agreements contained in this Note, and no delay or omission of the Holder of the Note to exercise any right or power accruing upon any Default or Event of Default shall impair any such right or power, or shall be construed to be a waiver of any such Default or Event of Default or any acquiescence therein; and, every power and remedy given by this Section 3 or by law to the Holder may be exercised from time to time, and as often as shall be deemed expedient, by the Holder.

 

Section 4. [RESERVED]

 

Section 5. LENDER’S CONVERSION RIGHT

 

(a) Right to Convert. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Note, the Lender shall have the right (the “Lender Conversion Right”), exercisable in its sole discretion at any time after the date of this Note prior to the Maturity Date, to convert the outstanding and unpaid principal amount of this Note (including the amount of any PIK Interest that has been added to the principal sum owing hereunder, provided that the Company may pay any such PIK Interest in cash) (in whole or in part) into validly issued and fully paid Shares (together with cash in lieu of any fractional shares) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing 100.0% of the amount of principal being converted by $0.10 (the “Per Share Conversion Price”), and the accrued and unpaid interest on this Note will be payable at such time in cash, or at the election of the Lender to be delivered in writing to the Company, in Shares based on the Per Share Conversion Price.

 

Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Note, all obligations of the Company in respect of the principal amount of the Note shall be discharged upon conversion and accordingly, thereupon, the Company shall have no further obligation with respect to the principal amount of this Note and the Note shall thereupon be cancelled and cease to have any effect.

 

Save for any stamp, registration, issuance, and similar Taxes, the Company shall pay any and all costs and expenses that may be payable with respect to the conversion (or any part thereof) of this Note, including upon the issuance, transfer and/or the delivery of the Shares, and in each case any certificates or evidence of title to the Shares (as applicable), upon the conversion of this Note.

 

15

 

 

(b) Conversion Procedures. To convert any portion of this Note into Shares on any date in accordance with this Section, the Lender shall deliver by electronic mail (or otherwise deliver) to the Company on such date, a copy of an executed Notice of Conversion, the form of which is attached hereto as Annex B (a “Lender Conversion Notice”). If required hereunder, but without delaying the Company’s requirement to deliver the Shares on the Lender Conversion Date (as defined below), the Lender shall surrender this Note to a common carrier for delivery to the Company as soon as practicable on or following the applicable Lender Conversion Date on which the Lender submitted a Lender Conversion Notice to the Company electing to convert all or portion of this Note as represented on such Lender Conversion Notice (or an indemnification undertaking with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft, destruction or mutilation). The Lender Conversion Notice shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Note being converted into Shares; and (ii) whether the accrued and unpaid interest on the Note will be payable in cash or, in Shares, and the amount(s) so payable in cash or, in Shares. No ink-original Lender Conversion Notice shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Lender Conversion Notice be required. On or before the first Trading Day following the date of the Lender Conversion Notice, the Company shall transmit by electronic mail a confirmation of receipt of such Lender Conversion Notice and certain representations as to whether the Shares may then be resold pursuant to Rule 144 or an effective and available registration statement, to the Lender and the Company’s transfer agent, which confirmation shall constitute an instruction to the Company to process the Lender Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms therein. On or before the second Trading Day following the date on which the Lender has delivered the applicable Lender Conversion Notice (a “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall (x) provided that either (A) the applicable Shares are subject to an effective resale registration statement in favor of the Lender or (B) if converted at a time when Rule 144 would be available for resale of the Shares by the Lender, credit such aggregate number of Shares to which the Lender is entitled pursuant this Note and as set forth in the Lender Conversion Notice, plus, if applicable, any Shares for the accrued and unpaid interest through the Lender Conversion Date, to the Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with the applicable clearing system and/or depository, or (y) if the Shares are not subject to an effective resale registration statement in favor of the Lender and, if converted at a time when Rule 144 would not be available for resale of the applicable Shares by the Lender, issue and deliver to the address or account, as applicable, as specified in the Lender Conversion Notice, a book-entry notation, as applicable, registered in the name of the Lender or its designee, for the number of Shares to which the Lender shall be entitled pursuant to this Note and as set forth in the Lender Conversion Notice, plus, if applicable, any Shares for the accrued and unpaid interest through the Lender Conversion Date. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion as required by this Section and the then outstanding principal amount of this Note is greater than the principal amount being converted, the Company shall as soon as practicable after delivery of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the Lender a new note representing the outstanding principal not yet converted. The date on which such conversion shall be effected (such date, the “Lender Conversion Date”) shall be the later of the date of the Company’s receipt of a Lender Conversion Notice and the date on which the Lender or its nominee becomes the legal and beneficial owner of the Shares (and cash) and all steps necessary to effect that have been completed (and all relevant documents evidencing the same have been delivered to the Lender), unless the Company and the Lender agree in writing to another date. All calculations and determinations in respect of the foregoing shall be made by the Lender, whose determination shall be binding on the Parties.

 

(c) Effect of Conversion. From and after the Lender Conversion Date, assuming rightful delivery of the Lender Conversion Notice to the Company and that the relevant Shares have become legally and beneficially owned by the Lender or its nominee and all steps necessary to effect such conversion have been completed (and all relevant documents evidencing the same have been delivered to the Lender) and that a new note has been issued to the Lender in connection with any outstanding principal amount not converted, this Note shall cease to be outstanding (as further provided herein) and interest thereon shall cease to accrue. Subject to the other terms and conditions of this Note and except for any outstanding principal amount not converted, all obligations of the Company in respect of the principal amount of this Note shall be discharged thereby and accordingly, thereupon, the Company shall have no further obligation with respect to the principal amount of this Note and this Note shall thereupon be cancelled and cease to have any effect. The Lender (or such nominee as it may specify) shall be treated as a shareholder of record of the Company as of the Lender Conversion Date, irrespective of the date such Shares are credited to the Lender’s account with the applicable clearing system and/or depository or the date of delivery of the certificate evidencing the Shares, as the case may be. The Company’s obligations to issue and deliver the Shares in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions hereof are absolute and unconditional. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Note, the Exchange Agreement or the Registration Rights Agreement, after the effective date of the Registration Statement (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement), the Company shall, upon receipt of reasonably requested documentation and letters of representation, cause unlegended and unrestricted Shares to be delivered the Lender (or its designee) in connection with any sale of Shares with respect to which the Lender has entered into a contract for sale, and delivered a copy of the prospectus included as part of the particular Registration Statement to the extent applicable, and for which the Lender has not yet settled.

 

16

 

 

(d) Status of Shares. Subject to obtaining the Shareholder Approvals, the Company represents and warrants to the Lender that it has all approvals and authorizations to allot and issue such number of Shares as is necessary for the Company to comply with its obligations under this Note (including any additional authorizations required to issue any Shares in lieu of interest pursuant to the Lender’s Conversion Right). The Company shall reserve out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares a number of Ordinary Shares sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note (the “Required Reserve Amount”). So long as this Note is outstanding, the Company shall take all corporate action necessary to reserve and keep available out of its authorized and unissued Ordinary Shares, solely for the purpose of effecting the conversion of this Note, the number of Ordinary Shares equal to the applicable Required Reserve Amount. Any Shares issued upon settlement of conversion shall satisfy the Equity Conditions.

 

(e) The Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. If the Company shall fail, other than by reason of a failure of the Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (I) to issue and deliver a certificate to the Lender or credit the Lender’s balance account with the applicable depository and/or clearing system with respect to the number of Shares to which the Lender is entitled upon the Conversion or (II) if the Registration Statement covering the resale of the Shares that are the subject of a Lender Conversion Notice (the “Unavailable Conversion Shares”) is not available for the resale of such Unavailable Conversion Shares and the Company fails to promptly (x) so notify the Lender and (y) deliver the Shares electronically without any restrictive legend by crediting such aggregate number of Shares to which the Lender is entitled pursuant to such Conversion to the Lender’s or its designee’s balance account with the applicable depository and/or clearing system (the event described in the immediately foregoing clause (II) is hereinafter referred as a “Notice Failure” and together with the event described in clause (I) above, a “Conversion Failure”), then in addition to all other remedies available to the Lender, (A) if the Conversion Failure remains uncured on the third Business Day following the Share Delivery Date that the issuance of such Shares is not timely effected, the Company shall pay cash to the Lender on each day thereafter that the Conversion Failure remains uncured in an amount equal to 1.0% of the product of (1) the sum of the number of Shares not issued to the Lender on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Lender is entitled, and (2) the Weighted Average Price of the Shares on the Lender Conversion Date, as the case may be; provided, that if the Conversion Failure remains uncured for 30 days following the Share Delivery Date that the issuance of such Shares is not timely effected, the Company shall pay cash to the Lender on each day thereafter that the Conversion Failure remains uncured in an amount equal to 1.5% of the product of (1) the sum of the number of Shares not issued to the Lender on or prior to the Share Delivery Date and to which the Lender is entitled, and (2) the Weighted Average Price of the Shares on the Lender Conversion Date, as the case may be, and (B) the Lender, upon written notice to the Company, may void its Lender Conversion Notice, with respect to, and retain or have returned, as the case may be, any portion of this Note that has not been converted pursuant to such Lender Conversion Notice; provided that the voiding of a Lender Conversion Notice shall not affect the Company’s obligations to make any payments which have accrued prior to the date of such notice pursuant to this Section or otherwise; provided, further, that in no event shall the amount of payments on account of a Conversion Failure, together with any interest accrued thereon in accordance with this Note, exceed 15% of the principal amount of this Note as set forth on the face of this Note. In addition to the foregoing, if, other than by reason of a failure of the Lender to comply with its obligations hereunder, on or prior to the Share Delivery Date either (A) the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Lender or credit the Lender’s balance account with the applicable depository and/or clearing system for the number of Shares to which the Lender is entitled upon the Conversion or on any date of the Company’s obligation to deliver Shares as contemplated pursuant to clause (y) below or (B) a Notice Failure occurs, and if on or after the Share Delivery Date the Lender purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Shares corresponding to all or any portion of the number of Shares issuable upon such Conversion that the Lender is entitled to receive from the Company and has not received from the Company in connection with such Conversion Failure, then the Company shall, within two (2) Trading Days after the Lender’s request and in the Lender’s discretion, either (x) pay cash to the Lender in an amount equal to the Lender’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, all stamp, registration, issuance and similar taxes and other out-of-pocket expenses, if any) for the Shares so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to issue and deliver such certificate or credit the Lender’s balance account with the applicable depository and/or clearing system for the Shares to which the Lender is entitled upon the Conversion shall terminate, or (y) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Lender a certificate or certificates representing such Shares or credit the Lender’s balance account with the applicable depository and/or clearing system for such Shares and pay cash to the Lender in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of Shares, times (B) the Weighted Average Price of the Shares on the Lender Conversion Date. Nothing herein shall limit the Lender’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver certificates representing the Shares (or to electronically deliver such Shares) upon Conversion of this Note as required pursuant to the terms hereof.

 

17

 

 

(f) Registration of Shareholder. The Company shall maintain a register for the recordation of the name and address of the Lender as the holder of this Note (and the name and address of any Person who is transferred all or any portion of this Note to the extent permitted by the terms hereof) and principal amount (and stated interest with respect thereto) held by the Lender (and any Person who is transferred all or any portion of this Note to the extent permitted by the terms hereof). The entries in such register shall be conclusive and binding for all purpose absent manifest error. The Company shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in such register as the owner of this Note for all purposes, including, without limitation, the right to receive payments of principal and interest hereunder, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. Upon any Conversion (a “Conversion” being a conversion of the Indebtedness under the Note into Shares pursuant to a Lender Conversion Notice in accordance with the terms of this Note), the Company shall procure and ensure that the Lender (or any nominee it may direct, (in its absolute discretion)) shall be registered in the share register of the Company and/or any other applicable registration, including in a depository and/or clearing system, as the holder of the applicable Shares with no further conditions as set forth in this Section and in the Equity Conditions.

 

(g) Additional Actions. Upon any Conversion, the Company shall take all actions and submit all such documents required, desirable or advisable in order to duly transfer the Shares to the Lender (or the relevant nominee), including but not limited to, the delivery to the Lender of a duly signed share transfer deed, an updated shareholder register of the Company and/or any other applicable registration and a share certificate evidencing the registration of the Shares under the name of the Lender or the relevant nominee or if such Shares are traded on a clearing system or in dematerialised or uncertificated form, take such action is necessary or desirable to cause such Shares to be transferred to the Lender or any nominee of the Lender that it may specify in writing under the rules of such clearing system or exchange, including giving all necessary or desirable instructions to any nominee or custodian or system-user under that exchange to ensure the transfer of the Shares to the Lender or its nominee, including for the dematerialisation or rematerialisation of any assets or investments held in a settlement or clearance system, in each case, consistent with the terms of this Section. No later than ten (10) Business Days prior to implementing a consolidation, combination, reverse share split or reclassification of Ordinary Shares or other similar event (each, a “Specified Event”), the Company shall provide written notice to the Lender summarizing the material terms of such Specified Event.

 

(h) Additional Documents. Upon any Conversion, the Company shall also (and shall procure that, if applicable, any of their shareholders and relevant wholly-owned Subsidiaries will): execute, enter into and deliver any agreements, directions, powers of attorney, certificates, notices, acknowledgements, corporate resolutions and any other documents; and give any such instructions, file any documentation and/or do and perform any such acts, in each case, which may be required or desirable in connection with, the transfer, registration or ownership of the Shares to the Lender or otherwise to give full effect to this Note, in each case, on the Lender Conversion Date or any other date reasonably requested by the Lender, including as required under the rules of any applicable clearing system or depository.

 

18

 

 

(i) Other Instruments. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note to the contrary, if the Shares have become an instrument other than the ordinary shares referred to hereof as of the date of this Note and/or are not listed for trading, or not able to be traded if listed for trading, on the Principal Exchange (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Lender has waived the related Equity Conditions Failure), the Lender shall, in its absolute discretion, have the option to accept such other instrument but it shall not be obliged to do so and the Note shall continue in full force and effect. The Company shall do all things that the Lender may request to put the Lender in an equivalent position but for such change of instrument.

19

(c) To make a Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election with respect to the Note (or any portion thereof in an authorized denomination), the Holder of the Note must deliver a notice (a “Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election Notice”) to the Paying Agent before the close of business on the second (2nd) Business Day immediately before the related Tax Redemption Date, which notice must state: (x) the certificate number of such Note; (y) the principal amount of such Note as to which the Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election will apply, which must be an authorized denomination; and (z) that the Holder is making a Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election with respect to the Note (or such portion thereof).

For the avoidance of doubt, if an Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day within the meaning of Annex A hereof and such Tax Redemption Date occurs on the Business Day immediately after such Interest Payment Date, then (x) accrued and unpaid interest on the Note to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date will be paid, in accordance with Section 11.15 hereof, on the next succeeding Business Day to the Holder as of the close of business on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date; and (y) the Tax Redemption Price will include interest on the Note to be redeemed from, and including, such Interest Payment Date.

If the Company, a Guarantor or any Successor Company, or any person: (i) making a payment on behalf of the Company, a Guarantor or any Successor; or (ii) through whom the Company, a Guarantor or any Successor makes any payment (including for the avoidance of doubt any Paying Agent or withholding agent), is required by law to make any Tax Deduction on, under or in respect of any amount payable under this Note or the Exchange Agreement, the amount payable by or on behalf of the Company, Guarantor or any Successor shall be increased to an amount which (after making all Tax Deductions required by law) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required (the amount of any such increase of a payable amount required to be made in accordance with this provision being “Additional Amounts”). Solely to the extent that it is eligible for full exemption from UK withholding tax on interest, and unless the Lender considers (in its absolute discretion) that it may be harmful and/or disadvantageous to its Tax affairs, the Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete, or co-operate with the Company (or other relevant Obligor) to complete, any necessary procedural formalities which are required in order for the Company (or other relevant Obligor) to obtain authorization to make payments of interest to the Lender without a Tax Deduction on account of UK tax on interest, provided always that any failure by the Company (or other relevant Obligor) to obtain any such authorization, for whatsoever reason, shall not affect the obligations of the Company, any Guarantor or any Successor Company or any person: (i) making a payment on behalf of the Company, a Guarantor or any Successor; or (ii) through whom the Company, a Guarantor or any Successor makes any payment (including for the avoidance of doubt any withholding agent), under this Section 11.03(b).

 

(ii)The Company, any Guarantor and any Successor Company will make all withholdings and deductions required by law on payments under or in respect of the Note and will remit the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority in accordance with applicable law.

 

(1)For the avoidance of doubt, if the Note is called for a Tax Redemption and the Tax Redemption Date is after a Regular Record Date and on or before the next Interest Payment Date, then the Company’s obligation to pay Additional Amounts will apply to the interest payment due on the Note on such Interest Payment Date unless the Note is subject to a Tax Redemption Opt-Out Election Notice.

 

30

 

 

(2)If the Company or any Guarantor or Successor Company is required to make any deduction or withholding from any payments or deliveries with respect to the Note, then (i) the Company or the Guarantor or Successor Company, as applicable, will make copies of official tax receipts (or, if, after expending reasonable efforts, the Company or Guarantor or Successor Company, as applicable, is unable to obtain such receipts, other evidence of payments), evidencing the remittance to the relevant tax authorities of the amounts so withheld or deducted and (ii) the Company will make copies of such receipts or evidence, as applicable, available to the Holder upon request.

 

(3)All references in this Note to any payment on, or delivery with respect to, the Note (including payment of the principal of, or the Fundamental Change Repurchase Price for, or any interest on, any Note) will, to the extent that Additional Amounts are payable in respect thereof, be deemed to include the payment of such Additional Amounts.

 

(c) Tax Indemnity: The Company shall (within three Business Days of demand by a Finance Party) pay to that Finance Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which the Finance Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Finance Party in respect of this Note, or the Exchange Agreement, provided that this obligation shall not apply: (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, in each case 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 Section 11.03(b); or (B) relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party. A Party making, or intending to make, a claim under this Section 11.03(c) shall promptly notify the Company of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim.

 

(d) VAT: (i) All amounts expressed to be payable under this Note, or under the Exchange Agreement, in each case by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by the Finance Party to any Party under this Note, or the Exchange Agreement, and the Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and the Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party). (ii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the “Supplier”) to any other Finance Party (the “Recipient”) under this Note, or the Exchange Agreement, and any Party other than the Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by the terms of this Note, or the Exchange Agreement to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration): (a) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (a) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT chargeable on that supply; and (b) (where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT. (iii) Where this Note, or the Exchange Agreement requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify any Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall 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. Any reference in this Section 11.03(d) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) 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 the Council Directive 2006/11/EC (or as implemented by the relevant state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not a member of the European Union) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in accordance with section 43 of the United Kingdom Value Added Tax Act 1994)), so that a reference to a Party shall be construed as a reference to that Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that Party is a member for VAT purposes at the relevant time, or the relevant member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity) at the relevant time (as the case may be). In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under this Note or under the Exchange Agreement, if reasonably requested by the Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide the Finance Party with details of that Party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with the Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

(e) FATCA: (i) Subject to paragraph (iii) below, each Party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party: (a) confirm to that other Party whether it is: (I) a FATCA Exempt Party; or (II) not a FATCA Exempt Party; (b) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA; and (c) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime. (ii) If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (i)(a) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly. (iii) Paragraph (i) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and paragraph (i)(c) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: (X) any law or regulation; (Y) any fiduciary duty; or (Z) any duty of confidentiality. (iv) If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (i)(a) or (i)(b) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (iii) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of this Note, and the Exchange Agreement (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

 

(f) FATCA Deduction: (i) 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. Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the Party to whom it is making the payment.
