7.4.4 The Borrower may only repay or prepay all or part of any Loan or cancel all or part of any Commitment as expressly set out in this Agreement.

7.4.5 No amount of the Commitment cancelled under this Agreement may be subsequently reinstated.

8 Interest

8.1 Calculation of interest

The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum determined by the Lender to be the sum of the applicable:

(a) Margin; and

(b) LIBOR.

8.2 Payment of interest

The Borrower must pay accrued interest on the Loans on the last day of each Interest Period.

8.3 Default interest

8.3.1 If any Obligor fails to pay when due any amount payable by it under a Finance Document, interest will accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment).  The rate of interest will be two per cent higher than the rate which would have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount.  The duration of the Interest Periods for the overdue amount will be selected by the Lender (acting reasonably).  The Borrower must pay any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 on the demand by the Lender.

8.3.2 If any overdue amount consists of all or part of the Loans that became due on a day that was not the last day of an Interest Period:

(a) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount will have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of then current Interest Period for the Loans; and

(b) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period will be two per cent higher than the rate that would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

8.3.3 Default interest on an overdue amount (if unpaid) will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period but will remain immediately due and payable.

8.4 Notification of rates of interest

The Lender must promptly notify the Borrower of each rate of interest determined under this Agreement.

9 Interest Periods

9.1 Duration of Interest Periods

9.1.1 The first Interest Period for a Loan will start on its Utilisation Date.  On the last day of that Interest Period the new Loan will be consolidated with all other Loans.  Each other Interest Period for a Loan will start on the last day of its preceding Interest Period.  

Page 14

9.1.2 Each Interest Period for a Loan will end on the first Repayment Date to occur after the start date for that Interest Period.  No Interest Period for a Loan may extend beyond the Termination Date.

9.2 Non-Business Days

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a non-Business Day, it will instead end on:

(a) the next Business Day in the same calendar month, if there is one; or

(b) the preceding Business Day, if there is not.

10 Changes to the calculation of interest

10.1 Reference Bank quotations

This Clause is subject to Clause 10.2 (Market disruption).  If:

(a) the Lender must determine LIBOR using quotations from the Reference Banks; and

(b) one Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by 11 a.m. on the Quotation Day,

the Lender must determine LIBOR using the quotations from the other Reference Banks.

10.2 Market disruption

10.2.1 If a Market Disruption Event happens and affects a Loan and its Interest Period, the interest rate for that Interest Period will be the percentage rate per annum that is the sum of the:

(a) Margin; and

(b) the cost to the Lender of funding that Loan from whatever source the Lender reasonably selects.

10.2.2 A Market Disruption Event happens if:

(a) at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and:

(i) none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation to the Lender; or

(ii) the Lender decides that, because of circumstances affecting the London interbank market generally, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for finding out LIBOR; or

(b) before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Lender determines that in its opinion:

(i) the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits in the London interbank market would be more than LIBOR; or

(ii) matching deposits may not be available to it in the London interbank market in the ordinary course of business.

10.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

10.3.1 If:

(a) a Market Disruption Event happens; and

Page 15

(b) the Lender or Borrower so wishes,

the Lender and the Borrower must try (for not more than 30 days) to agree a substitute basis for deciding the rate of interest.

10.3.2 If the Lender and the Borrower agree an alternative basis under Clause 10.3.1, the alternative basis will be binding on all Parties.

10.4 Break Costs

If:

(a) all or part of a Loan or Unpaid Sum is not paid on the last day of its Interest Period; and

(b) the Lender so demands,

the Borrower must pay to the Lender its related Break Costs.

11 Fees

11.1 Arrangement fee

The Borrower must pay to the Lender an arrangement fee of $100,000 on the earlier of: (a) the first Utilisation Date; and (b) the date that is 30 days after the date of this Agreement.

If the Borrower prepays any of the Facility under Clause 7.3 (Voluntary prepayment of Loans) it must, at the time it makes the prepayment, pay the Lender a prepayment fee of three per cent of the amount prepaid.  

12 Tax gross-up and indemnities

12.1 Tax gross-up

12.1.1 Each Obligor must make all of its payments under the Finance Documents without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

12.1.2 The Borrower must notify the Lender promptly on realising that:

(a) an Obligor has had or will have to make a Tax Deduction; or

(b) there has been or will be any change in the rate, or the basis of calculation, of any Tax Deduction.

Similarly, the Lender must notify the Borrower on realising that a payment to the Lender has been or will be so affected.

12.1.3 If an Obligor must by law make a Tax Deduction, it must increase the payment to which that Tax Deduction relates so that the amount of the payment remaining after the Tax Deduction is the same as the amount the payment would have been if no Tax Deduction had been required.

12.1.4 If an Obligor must by law make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor must make:

(a) the Tax Deduction; and

(b) any related payment to the relevant tax authority,

Page 16

within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

12.1.5 Within 30 days of making:

for or on account of Tax in relation to any sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for Tax purposes to be received or receivable) under any Finance Document.  If this happens, the Borrower must pay the Lender, within three Business days of demand, an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost the Lender will suffer or has suffered (directly or indirectly) as a result of that liability or payment.  The Lender will determine the amount of its cost, loss or liability in its absolute discretion.  The Borrower must pay within three Business Days of demand by the Lender.

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 the Lender; or

12.4.1 All amounts payable to the Lender under a Finance Document are exclusive of VAT.  If VAT is chargeable on any supply made by the Lender to another Party under a Finance Document, that Party must, when it pays for the supply, also pay an amount equal to the VAT.

Page 17

12.4.2 When:

(a) an Obligor must reimburse the Lender for a cost;

(b) the Lender has incurred VAT in respect of that cost; and

that Obligor must indemnify the Lender against the VAT the Lender has incurred when it pays the reimbursement.

13 Increased Costs

13.1 Increased Costs

13.1.1 This Clause is subject to Clause 13.3 (Exceptions).  If the Lender or any of its Affiliates incurs any Increased Costs as a result of:

(a) notify the Borrower of the event giving rise to the claim; and

(b) provide the Borrower with a certificate of its Increased Costs.

Page 18

13.3 Exceptions

Clause 13.1 (Increased Costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is:

(a) attributable to a Tax Deduction the Borrower must by law make;

(b) compensated for by Clause 12.2 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been had Clause 12.2.2 not applied); or

(c) attributable to the wilful breach by the Lender or its Affiliates of any law or regulation.

14 Other indemnities

14.1.1 If it is necessary to convert any:

(a) sum due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (a Sum); or

(b) order, judgment or award given or made in relation to a Sum,

(i) make or file a claim or proof against that Obligor; or

(ii) obtain or enforce an order, judgment or award,

that Obligor must indemnify the Lender against any cost, loss or liability arising from the conversion.  That cost, loss or liability may include any difference between:

(aa) the rate of exchange used to convert that Sum from the First Currency into the Second Currency; and

That Obligor's obligation under this Clause is independent of its obligation to pay the original Sum and must be satisfied within three Business Days of demand.

14.1.2 Each Obligor waives any right it may have in any jurisdiction to pay any amount in a currency other than that in which it is payable under the Finance Documents.

14.2 Other indemnities

The Borrower must indemnify the Lender against any cost, loss or liability the Lender incurs because of:

the Lender will, in consultation with the Borrower, take all reasonable steps to mitigate the effects of this, including transferring its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents to an Affiliate or another Facility Office.

17 Guarantee, indemnity and cash injection undertaking

17.1 Guarantee and indemnity

For the benefit of the Lender, the Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally:

(b) undertakes, if the Borrower does not pay an amount when expressed to be due under any Finance Document, immediately on demand to pay that amount as if it were the principal obligor; and

(c) undertakes as an independent and primary obligation, if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, to indemnify the Lender immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability the Lender incurs as a result of the Borrower not paying any amount that would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by the Borrower under any Finance Document, on the date it would have been due.  The maximum amount payable by the Guarantor under this indemnity is the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

17.2 Cash injection undertaking

17.2.1 The Guarantor undertakes to comply, within 30 days, with any request by the Lender to provide a cash injection of Dollars to the Borrower and in particular to its Albanian branch.  The Guarantor may make the cash injection by means of equity, a loan or any other method acceptable to the Lender.  If the cash injection is made by a loan that loan must be subordinated in accordance with Clause 22.1.1(d).

17.2.2 Without prejudice to Clause 17.2.1 the Guarantor undertakes by at the latest 31 December 2014 to provide a cash injection in Dollars to the Borrower (and to its Albanian branch if required by the Lender) in a minimum amount of $15,000,000 by means of equity or any other method acceptable to the Lender.

17.2.3 Any request the Lender makes under Clause 17.2.1 must specify the amount of the cash injection, which may be no more than any of:

(a) the total amount outstanding (including accrued interest) under the Finance Documents at that time; and

(b) the Lender's reasoned estimate of the Borrower's Cashflow Shortfall during the period from the date of the Lender's request to second Repayment Date to occur after the date of that request.

For the purposes of this Clause, the Borrower's Cashflow Shortfall for any period means the amount (if any) by which the Borrower's predicted expenditures exceed its predicted revenues for that period, as determined by the Lender on the basis of the financial information the Borrower supplies to it under Clause 19.7 (Production information) and any other relevant information the Lender receives under Clause 19.4(c) or otherwise.

17.3 Continuing and additional guarantee

If any:

(a) discharge;

(whether in respect of the obligations of the Borrower or any Security for those obligations or otherwise) is made by the Lender in whole or in part on the basis of any:

(i) payment;

(ii) security;

(iii) recovery; or

(iv) other disposition,

that is avoided or must be restored in insolvency, liquidation, administration or otherwise,

then the liability of the Guarantor under this Clause will continue or be reinstated as if that discharge, release, accounting or arrangement had not occurred.

17.5 Waiver of defences

The obligations of the Guarantor under this Clause will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing (whether or not known to it or the Lender) that, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of them, including:

(a) any time, waiver or consent granted to the Borrower or any other person;

(b) the release of the Borrower or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any person;

(c) the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal, enforcement or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, take up or enforce, any rights against, or Security over assets of, the Borrower or any other person;

Page 22

(d) any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any Transaction Security;

(e) any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of, or dissolution or change in the constitution, members or status of, the Borrower or any other person;

(f) any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, replacement, assignment, avoidance or termination of any Finance Document or any other document or Transaction Security, in each case however fundamental and whether or not more onerous including any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in, any facility, or the addition of any new facility;

(g) any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of, or any Transaction Security or any other Security; or

(h) any insolvency, liquidation, administration or similar procedure.

17.6 Guarantor intent

Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 17.5 (Waiver of defences), the Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following:

(a) acquisitions of any nature;

(b) increasing working capital;

(c) enabling investor distributions to be made;

(d) carrying out restructurings;

(e) refinancing existing facilities;

(f) refinancing any other indebtedness;

(g) any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and

17.7 Immediate recourse

The Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or Security or claim payment from any person before claiming from the Guarantor under this Clause.  This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

17.8 Appropriations

During the Security Period, the Lender may:

(a) refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, Security or rights held or received by it (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) for amounts that may be or become payable by the Borrower under the Finance Documents, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and the Guarantor will not be entitled to the benefit of the same; and

Page 23

(b) hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from the Guarantor or on account of the Guarantor's liability under this Clause 17.

17.9 Deferral of Guarantor's rights

17.9.1 During the Security Period, unless the Lender otherwise directs, the Guarantor may not exercise or benefit from any rights it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause to:

(a) receive or claim payment from or be indemnified by the Borrower;

(b) claim any contribution from any other guarantor of, or provider of Security for, the Borrower's obligations under the Finance Documents;

(d) bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring the Borrower to make any payment, or perform any obligation, for which the Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause 17.1;

(e) exercise any right of set-off against the Borrower; or

(f) claim or prove as a creditor of the Borrower in competition with the Lender.

17.9.2 If the Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to any rights referred to in Clause 17.9.1 it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution on trust for the Lender and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Lender or as the Lender may direct for application in accordance with Clause 26 (Payment mechanics).  The Guarantor must comply with this Clause only to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Lender by the Borrower under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full.

17.10 No Security from the Borrower

During the Security Period, the Guarantor must not take, or retain, any Security from the Borrower or any other person in connection with any of the Guarantor's liabilities under this Agreement without the consent of the Lender.

17.11 Interest provisions applicable to the Guarantor

17.11.1 For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure under it, the rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest calculation under this Agreement.

17.11.2 Any provision of this Agreement that would oblige the Guarantor to pay any fine, penalty or rate of interest on any arrears of principal or interest secured by a mortgage on real property or hypothec on immovables that has the effect of increasing the charge on arrears beyond the rate of interest payable on principal money not in arrears shall not apply to the Guarantor.  In this case, the Guarantor shall be required to pay interest on money in arrears at the same rate of interest payable on principal money not in arrears.

17.11.3 If any provision of this Agreement would oblige the Guarantor to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to the Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate that would be prohibited by Canadian law or would result in a receipt by the Lender of "interest" at a "criminal rate" (as such terms are construed under the Criminal Code (Canada)), then, notwithstanding that provision, that amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted

Page 24

with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a receipt by the Lender of "interest" at a "criminal rate", such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary (but only to the extent necessary), as follows:

(a) first, by reducing the amount or rate of interest; and

(b) thereafter, by reducing any fees, commissions, costs, expenses, premiums and other amounts required to be paid that would constitute interest for purposes of section 347 of the Criminal Code (Canada).
