Repayment of the K-SURE Covered Facility Loan
(a)
Subject to paragraphs (b) to (e) (inclusive) of this Clause 5.1 (Repayment of the K-SURE Covered Facility Loan), the Company shall repay the K-SURE Covered Facility Loan in instalments on the Repayment Dates and in the amounts equal to the percentages of all K-SURE Covered Facility Loans made to the Company as at close of business in London on the last day of the Availability Period set




out in Schedule 2 (Repayment Schedule) (as reduced from time to time by any prepayment and as may be adjusted by the Parties subject to either (i) the terms of the Coordination Deed; or (ii) paragraph (c) below) (each a "K-SURE Covered Facility Repayment Instalment").
(b)
If the First Repayment Date occurs less than six (6) months prior to the Second Repayment Date (or on the same date as the Second Repayment Date), the amount of the K-SURE Covered Facility Loans to be repaid by the Company on the First Repayment Date shall be reduced on a pro rata basis by the following amount (the "Deferred Amount"):
D = O * N1/180
Where:
D = the Deferred Amount (expressed as a percentage);
O = an amount equivalent to the fixed percentage (expressed as a whole number rather than a percentage) of the K-SURE Covered Facility Repayment Instalment due on the First Repayment Date pursuant to the repayment schedule set out in Schedule 2 (Repayment Schedule) on the date of this Agreement (the "Original Repayment Schedule"); and
N1 = the number of days between (a) the date falling six (6) months after the Initial Scheduled Commercial Start Date; and (b) the First Repayment Date.
For example:
(i)
if the First Repayment Date occurs ninety (90) days prior to the Second Repayment Date, an amount equal to fifty per cent. (50%) of the K-SURE Covered Facility Repayment Instalment shown in the Original Repayment Schedule will be payable by the Company on the First Repayment Date; and
(ii)
if the First Repayment Date occurs on the date contemplated by paragraph (b) of the definition thereof, the entirety of the amount payable by the Company on the First Repayment Date will constitute a Deferred Amount for application in accordance with paragraph (c) below.
(c)
If paragraph (b) above applies to the First Repayment Date, the Company shall supply to the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent a revised repayment schedule to replace Schedule 2 (Repayment Schedule) reflecting the application of any Deferred Amount to the remaining K-SURE Covered Facility Repayment Instalments on each Repayment Date (other than the Final Maturity Date) commencing on the Second Repayment Date, on a pro rata basis to the amount otherwise falling due on each such Repayment Date (the "Revised Repayment Schedule").
(d)
Notwithstanding anything contained in paragraphs (b) and (c) above, the application of the Deferred Amount shall only be permitted if after such deferral the Projected DSCR for each Calculation Date falling on or prior to the Final Maturity Date calculated on the basis of the Revised Repayment Schedule would be not less than 1.25:1.
(e)
Any K-SURE Covered Facility Loan outstanding on the last Repayment Date (if any) shall be repaid in full on the Final Maturity Date.

Interest Periods
6.1
Interest Periods
(a)
Each Interest Period for a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance prior to the Commercial Start Date will be one (1) month, and thereafter, six (6) months.
(b)
Subject to paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) below, each Interest Period shall end on the same numbered day (the "later equivalent day"), in the calendar month in which it is to end, as the numbered day on which the first Interest Period for that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance would have ended, in each case in the absence of (and before) any adjustment pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Non-Business Days). Where there is no later equivalent day then, subject to paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) below, the relevant Interest Period shall end on the last calendar day of the calendar month in which it is to end, subject to adjustment pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Non-Business Days).




(c)
An Interest Period for a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date.
(d)
Each Interest Period for a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance under this Agreement shall start on the Drawdown Date for such K-SURE Covered Facility Advance or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period save in relation to any Interest Period which would otherwise end during the month preceding, or extending beyond, a Repayment Date, in which case, such Interest Period shall be of such duration that it shall end on that Repayment Date.
(e)
The Company agrees that the Interest Periods pursuant to this Clause 6.1 (Interest Periods) shall conform to the requirements of any Hedging Agreements entered into from time to time, so far as practically possible.

6.2
Non-Business Days
If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).
6.3
Consolidation of K-SURE Covered Facility Advances
(a)
If two (2) or more Interest Periods relating to K-SURE Covered Facility Advances made in the same currency end on the same date, those K-SURE Covered Facility Advances will be consolidated into, and treated as, a single K-SURE Covered Facility Advance made under the K-SURE Covered Facility on the last day of the Interest Period.
(b)
Any K-SURE Covered Facility Advance under the K-SURE Covered Facility made during an Interest Period for a previous Advance (an "Existing Interest Period") will, subject to paragraphs (c) and (d) below, have an initial Interest Period ending on the last day of such Existing Interest Period.
(c)
The K-SURE Covered Facility Agent shall be entitled to shorten any Interest Period for any K-SURE Covered Facility Advance to ensure that the aggregate principal amount of K-SURE Covered Facility Advances with an Interest Period ending on a Repayment Date is not less than the amount of principal due to be repaid on that Repayment Date.
(d)
If paragraph (b) above would result in a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance having an Interest Period of less than one (1) month, then the initial Interest Period for such K-SURE Covered Facility Advance will be such period as the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent and the Company may agree.

Payment and Calculation of INTEREST
7.1
Payment of Interest
(a)
On the last day of each Interest Period, the Company shall pay accrued interest on the K-SURE Covered Facility Advance to which that Interest Period relates.
(b)
In the event the Company prepays all or any part of a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance or Unpaid Sum on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period, the Company shall pay interest accrued on that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance or Unpaid Sum (or part thereof) from the first day of the Interest Period during which such prepayment occurs until the date of prepayment, and, in addition, any amounts payable pursuant to Clause 8.5 (Break Costs).

7.2
Calculation of Interest
The rate of interest on each K-SURE Covered Facility Advance for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:
(a)
Margin relating to the relevant K-SURE Covered Facility Advance at that time; and
(b)
LIBOR.





7.3
Default Interest Periods
(a)
Default interest shall accrue on any Unpaid Sum from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgement) at a rate of 2.00 per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance in the currency of the Unpaid Sum, as the case may be, for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent. Any interest accruing under this Clause 7.3 (Default Interest Periods) shall be immediately payable by the Company on demand by the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent.
(b)
Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an Unpaid Sum will be compounded with the Unpaid Sum at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that Unpaid Sum but will remain immediately due and payable.

7.4
Notification of rates of interest
The K-SURE Covered Facility Agent shall promptly notify the K-SURE Covered Facility Lenders and the Company of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.
8.
Changes to the Calculation of Interest
8.1
Unavailability of Screen Rate
(a)
Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for the Interest Period of a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance, the applicable LIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance.
(b)
Reference Bank Rate: If paragraph (a) above applies but it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate for that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance, the applicable LIBOR shall be the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time on the Quotation Day for the currency of that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance, and for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance.

8.2
Absence of quotations
Subject to Clause 8.3 (Market Disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Bank(s) but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Bank(s).
8.3
Market Disruption
(a)
If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each K-SURE Covered Facility Lender's share of that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance for that Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:
i.
the applicable Margin; and
ii.
the rate specified by notice to the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent from that K-SURE Covered Facility Lender as soon as practicable, and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that K-SURE Covered Facility Lender of funding its participation in that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance from whatever source it may reasonably select.
(b)
In this Agreement, "Market Disruption Event" means:
i.
at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Screen Rate is not available and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent to determine LIBOR for Dollars for the relevant Interest Period; or
ii.
before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent receives notification from a K-SURE Covered Facility Lender or K-SURE Covered Facility Lenders that the cost to it (or them) of obtaining matching deposits from whatever source it reasonably selects would be in excess of LIBOR for the relevant Interest Period.




8.4
Alternative Basis of Interest or Funding
(a)
If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent or the Company so requires, the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent and the Company shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.
(b)
Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall, with the prior consent of K-SURE, all the K-SURE Covered Facility Lenders and the Company, be binding on all Parties.

8.5
Break Costs
The Company shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by a K-SURE Covered Facility Lender, pay to that K-SURE Covered Facility Lender its Break Costs attributable to:
(a)
all or any part of a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance or an Unpaid Sum being paid by the Company on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for that K-SURE Covered Facility Advance or Unpaid Sum; or
(b)
a K-SURE Covered Facility Lender funding its participation in a K-SURE Covered Facility Advance requested by the Company in a Notice of Drawdown where such K-SURE Covered Facility Advance is not made by reason of the operation of any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement,

(a)
Each K-SURE Covered Facility Lender shall, in consultation with the Company, use reasonable endeavours to mitigate any circumstances which arise and which would result in any amount becoming payable under, or cancelled pursuant to, Clause 9 (Increased Costs) provided that, in order to comply with such duty, no K-SURE Covered Facility Lender shall be required to transfer any of its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents to an entity other than another Affiliate or Facility Office.

If it becomes unlawful (including as a result of a Sanctions Event) in any jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by this Agreement or the Facility Agreements to fund or maintain its participation in or to allow to remain outstanding all or any part of any Advance or any commitment to make any Advance (an "Illegality Lender"):
(a)
such Illegality Lender shall promptly notify its Relevant Facility Representative upon becoming aware of that event;
(b)
upon such Relevant Facility Representative notifying the Company, the Available Commitment of such Illegality Lender will be immediately cancelled and such Illegality Lender will no longer be obliged to fund any Advance; and
(c)
the Company shall:
(i)
repay such Illegality Lender's participation in the Advances on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance occurring after the Relevant Facility Representative has notified the Company or, if earlier, the date specified by the Illegality Lender in the notice delivered to the Relevant Facility Representative (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law), in each case, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees, any Break Costs (as defined in the relevant Facility Agreement) and all other amounts payable to the Illegality Lender under this Agreement and the other Finance Documents; or
(ii)
in the case of an Illegality Lender, replace such Illegality Lender at par in accordance with Clause 34.7 (Replacement of a Senior Lender) on or before the date applicable under sub-paragraph (i) above in relation to each Advance (subject to the prior written consent of the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority K-SURE Covered Facility Lenders) to such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Clause 34.7(b) (Replacement of a Senior Lender) below and the Coordination Deed).

Any failure by the Company to notify the Hedge Providers in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 6.1(d) (Mandatory Prepayment - Illegality) shall not affect a Hedge Provider's right to terminate the Transactions under the Hedging Agreements to which it is a party pursuant to Clause 21.7(l) (Termination by a Hedge Provider) of this Agreement and in accordance with the terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement.
8.2
Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event
(a)
If a Sanctions Event has occurred and is continuing, then each Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Voting Institutions under, and as defined in, its Facility Agreement) may:

cancel the Commitments of the Lenders under that Senior Facility, whereupon such Commitments will be immediately cancelled; and
(ii)
demand prepayment of the Advances owed to the Lenders under that Senior Facility in accordance with the terms of the relevant Facility Agreement,
in which case, subject to, and in accordance with paragraph (b) below, following such demand the Company will prepay in full all outstanding Advances owed to the Lenders under that Senior Facility, in each case together with all accrued but unpaid interest, fees, expenses and all other amounts due to those Lenders under the relevant Facility Agreement and any related Hedging Termination Payments due to a Hedge Provider.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Clause 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event), if a Hedge Provider is permitted to terminate the Transactions under a Hedging Agreement to which it is a party pursuant to Clause 21.6(d)(ii)(B) (Early Termination) or Clause 21.7(l) (Termination by a Hedge Provider) and a Hedging Termination Payment consequently falls due to a Hedge Provider, such Hedging Termination Payment shall be made on the date on which it falls due.
(c)
To the extent that, on a Repayment Date on which a Sanctions Prepayment is due to be made, the Company has insufficient funds (after making payment in full of all other amounts referred to in paragraphs (i) to (vi) (inclusive) of paragraph 3.3(d) (Withdrawals from the Operating Revenues Accounts) of Schedule 3 (Accounts) which are payable on such Repayment Date) to make the required Sanctions Prepayment in full, then:

For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that, on that next Repayment Date, the Company has insufficient funds (after making payment in full of all other amounts referred to in paragraphs (i) to (vi) of paragraph 3.3 (Withdrawals from the Operating Revenues Accounts) of Schedule 3 (Accounts) which are payable on that Repayment Date) to pay such Sanctions Prepayment Shortfall in full, this paragraph (c)(ii) shall apply to the remaining unpaid balance of that Sanctions Prepayment Shortfall as if it were itself a Sanctions Prepayment Shortfall.
(d)
The Company shall notify the Hedge Providers in writing (A) promptly upon becoming aware of the occurrence of a Sanctions Event and (B) immediately upon receipt of a demand from a Facility Agent




pursuant to Clause 6.2(a)(ii) above. Any failure by the Company to notify the Hedge Providers in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 6.2(d) (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event) shall not affect a Hedge Provider's right to terminate the Transactions under the Hedging Agreements to which it is a party pursuant to Clause 21.7(f) (Termination by a Hedge Provider) of this Agreement or Clause 21.7(l) (Termination by a Hedge Provider) of this Agreement and in accordance with the terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement.

(b)
Save in respect of any cancellation of the Available Commitment of a Senior Lender pursuant to paragraphs (a)(i) and (ii) of Clause 6.16 (Right of Cancellation and Repayment in relation to a Single Lender), any cancellation in part shall be applied against the relevant Available Commercial Bank Facility Commitment and the Available K-SURE Covered Facility Commitment of each Commercial Lender and each K-SURE Covered Facility Lender pro rata.

(a)
If the Company, a Facility Agent or the Global Facility Agent is required by law to make a Tax Deduction from any sum paid or payable by, or received or receivable from, the Company, a Facility Agent or the Global Facility Agent to any Finance Party under any Finance Document, the Company shall pay such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the person to which that sum is due receives on the due date and retains after making any Tax Deduction a net sum equal to what it would have received and so retained had no such Tax Deduction been required.
(b)
Without prejudice to paragraph (a) above, if any Finance Party is required to make any payment for or on account of any Tax or otherwise on or in relation to any sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the purposes of Tax to be received or receivable) under any Finance Document or if such person determines that any loss, liability or cost will or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax (except in each instance for a payment by any such recipient of Excluded Tax), the Company shall upon demand of the Global Facility Agent promptly indemnify such person against such payment or liability together with any interest, penalties and expenses payable or incurred in connection therewith.

If:
(a)
the Company makes a payment or increased payment under Clause 8.2(a) or 8.2(b) (Gross-up of Payments/Tax Indemnity) (a "Tax Payment") in respect of a payment to a Finance Party (each a "Beneficiary") under any Finance Document; and
(b)
that Beneficiary determines in good faith that it has obtained a refund or repayment of, relief or remission for, or credit against, Tax (a "Tax Credit") which that Beneficiary is able to identify as attributable to that Tax Payment and which that Beneficiary has obtained, utilised and retained,
then, if in its absolute discretion it can do so without any adverse consequences for that Beneficiary (other than the loss of the amount being reimbursed), that Beneficiary shall reimburse the Company such amount as that Beneficiary determines to be such proportion of that Tax Credit as shall leave the Beneficiary (after that reimbursement) in no better or worse position in respect of its world-wide Tax liabilities than it would have been in if no Tax Payment had been required. A Beneficiary shall have an absolute discretion as to whether




to claim any Tax Credit (and, if it does claim, the extent, order and manner in which it does so) and whether any amount is due from it under this Clause 8.3 (and, if so, what amount and when). No Beneficiary shall be obliged to disclose any information regarding its Tax affairs or computations.
8.4

Value added tax
(a)
All amounts set out, or expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of the VAT (and such Finance Party shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party).
(b)
If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the "Supplier") to any other Finance Party (the "Recipient") under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the "Relevant Party") is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):
(i)
(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 (i) 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
(ii)
(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.
(c)
Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a 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.
(d)
Any reference in this Clause 8.5 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term "representative member" to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).
(e)
In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party's VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party's VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

8.6
FATCA Information

(c)
Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and paragraph (a)(iii) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:
(i)
any law or regulation;
(ii)
any fiduciary duty; or
(iii)
any duty of confidentiality.
(d)
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 (a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (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.

8.7
FATCA Deduction
(a)
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.
(b)
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), and in any case at least three (3) Business Days prior to making a FATCA Deduction, notify the Party to whom it is making the payment and, on or prior to the day on which it notifies that Party, shall also notify the Company, the Global Facility Agent and the other Finance Parties.

(A)
control such action, suit or proceeding if it involves potential imposition of criminal liability upon the Indemnitee or a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee; and
(B)
make any admission of liability, fault or wrongdoing in respect of any Indemnitee without the prior written consent of such Indemnitee; and
(ii)
the Indemnitee shall have the right to retain its own counsel, with the Company bearing the expenses thereof (to the extent reasonably incurred), and such participation by the Indemnitee in the defence shall not release the Company from any liability that it may have to such Indemnitee.

(iv)
promptly notify the Global Facility Agent of the closing out or termination (in whole or in part) of any Transaction(s) under any Hedging Agreement.
(b)
The Company shall procure that each Hedge Provider shall, subject as provided below, at the same time as it enters into a Hedging Agreement with the Company, or otherwise acquires any interest in any Liabilities to Hedge Providers, be an Acceptable Hedge Provider and be either an Original Hedge Provider and a party to the Coordination Deed as an original hedge provider or become a Party and a party to the Coordination Deed, in each case, as a Hedge Provider by executing and delivering to the Global Facility Agent a duly completed Deed of Accession and a duly completed Coordination Deed of Accession, respectively, provided that the Company may enter into a Hedging Agreement with AUB on or prior to Financial Close (notwithstanding that AUB is not an Acceptable Hedge Provider), provided further that:
(i)
AUB has the Initial AUB Rating Requirements; and

(d)
The Company shall promptly notify the Global Facility Agent upon becoming aware of any Hedge Provider ceasing to be an Acceptable On-going Hedge Provider or, in the case of AUB in its capacity as Hedge Provider, ceasing to have the On-going AUB Rating Requirements, or any Hedge Provider ceasing to be a Supported Hedge Provider or a Supported AUB Hedge Provider, as the case may be.

21.2

(v)
specify that the event of default specified in section 5(a)(vii) (Bankruptcy) of the ISDA Agreement will apply with respect to the Company;

(xi)
provide that Section 2(a)(iii)(1) (General Conditions) of the ISDA Agreement shall be amended with respect to payments by the Hedge Providers only such that only the non-occurrence of (A) an Event of Default or (B) a Potential Event of Default, in each case, under Section 5(a)(i) (Failure to Pay or Deliver) or Section 5(a)(vii) (Bankruptcy) of the ISDA Agreement, shall be a condition precedent to such payments;

(1)
procure that an amount equal to, on any day, the amount (if any) that would be payable by the Hedge Provider under section 6(e) of the ISDA Agreement (as if such day were an Early Termination Date effectively designated as a




result of an Additional Termination Event in respect of which the Company was the sole Affected Party and all Transactions under its Hedging Agreement were Affected Transactions) is deposited into an interest-bearing account with the Offshore Security Trustee in the name of such Hedge Provider but secured in favour of the Offshore Security Trustee; or

(4)
enter into an agreement in form and substance substantially in the form of the 1995 ISDA Credit Support Annex (Bi-Lateral Form-Transfer) (ISDA Agreements Subject to English Law) to provide for the daily posting of cash collateral in an amount at least equal to the amount (if any) that would be payable by the Hedge Provider under section 6(e) of the ISDA Agreement (as if such date were an Early Termination Date effectively designated as a result of an Additional Termination Event in respect of which the Company was the sole Affected Party and all Transactions under its Hedging Agreement were Affected Transactions); or
(5)
provide such other credit support as may be acceptable to the Global Facility Agent, acting reasonably,
then an Additional Termination Event shall occur under the relevant Hedging Agreement with both parties as the Affected Parties (except for the purposes of Section 6(b)(iv) of the ISDA Agreement, in which case, the Hedge Provider shall be the sole Affected Party) and all Transactions as Affected Transactions;
(xvii)

21.3
Changes to Hedging Agreements
(a)
Each of the Company and each Hedge Provider undertakes that it will not amend, vary, supplement or allow to be superseded any provision of any Hedging Agreement (or give any waiver, release or consent having the same commercial effect), to the extent that would result in any provision in the Hedging Agreement being amended, varied or supplemented in any material respect, except:
(i)
as the Global Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Majority) has previously consented in writing;

(iv)
as otherwise permitted under this Agreement and the Coordination Deed,
provided that at all times the Hedging Agreement will comply with the provisions of Clause 21 (Hedging) and any amendment to a Hedging Agreement will always require the consent of the relevant Hedge Provider party thereto.

The Company undertakes to procure that the aggregate of all costs, fees, expenses and other amounts payable by the Company with respect to all amendments, variations and supplements under paragraph (a)(ii) above shall not exceed, in the aggregate, US$1,000,000, unless the Global Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of the Required Majority) otherwise agrees.

(c)
permit to subsist or receive any Security Interest (other than pursuant to the Security Documents) from the Company for, or in respect of, any interest in any of the Liabilities to Hedge Providers owing to it;

21.6
Early Termination
(a)
If at any time there exists a Hedge Excess in respect of any current or future Hedging Calculation Period (an "Excess Hedging Event") then the Company shall, and the Hedge Providers may, immediately terminate (in whole or in part) one or more Transactions under the Hedging Agreements such that, after all such terminations, there will no longer be a Hedge Excess for that Hedging Calculation Period, provided that the Hedge Provider and the Company may only reduce a Hedge Provider's Aggregate Notional Amount for that Hedging Calculation Period by that Hedge Provider's Proportion of the Hedge Excess for that Hedging Calculation Period, and the Company must at all times remain in compliance with the Hedging Strategy. For the avoidance of doubt, a Hedge Excess may exist in circumstances where a Disbursement (as defined in the relevant Facility Agreement) is not made in accordance with the expected debt profile at such time.
(b)
The Company will give written notice, as soon as reasonably practicable, and in any event, no less than five (5) Business Days' prior to the occurrence or expected occurrence of any event which may give rise to an Excess Hedging Event to the Hedge Providers and the Global Facility Agent, together with information in relation to any current and each future Hedging Calculation Period of the Aggregate Notional Amount of interest rate hedging for each such Hedging Calculation Period.
(c)
To the extent there exists a Hedge Excess as a result of a repayment or prepayment under Clause 6.1 (Mandatory Prepayment - Illegality), Clause 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event), Clause 6.10 (Mandatory Prepayment - K-SURE Cover Event) or Clause 6.16 (Right of Cancellation and Repayment in relation to a Single Lender) of this Agreement which, in each case, results in a Hedge Provider or an Affiliate of that Hedge Provider (in its capacity as Lender) no longer holding an interest in any Floating Facility and such Hedge Provider having a right to terminate or close-out any Transactions under its Hedging Agreements pursuant to Clause 21.7(i) (Termination by Hedge Provider) or paragraph (d) below, paragraph (a) shall only apply following such Hedge Provider exercising (or determining not to exercise) such right in accordance with the other provisions of this Clause 21 (Hedging).
(d)
Without prejudice to Clause 21.7(f) (Termination by a Hedge Provider), subject to the terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement,
if:




(i)
the Company is required to repay or prepay one or more Lenders’ participations in the Advances in full (ignoring, for these purposes Clause 6.2(c)) pursuant to Clause 6.1 (Mandatory Prepayment - Illegality) or Clause 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event); and
(ii)
such repayment or prepayment (if made in full) would result in there being (x) a Minimum Hedge Excess in respect of any current or future Hedging Calculation Period and (y) a Hedge Provider or an Affiliate of a Hedge Provider (in its capacity as a Lender) no longer holding an interest in any Floating Facility (such Hedge Provider being an "Orphan Hedge Provider"),
then:
(A)
each Orphan Hedge Provider may, on or, subject to the proviso below, following the date of such repayment or prepayment in full, terminate or close out (in whole or in part) any Transactions under any Hedging Agreement to which it is a party prior to their stated maturity to the extent of its Orphan Hedge Provider's Proportion of the resulting Minimum Hedge Excess for each Hedging Calculation Period (the "Orphan Hedge Provider's Minimum Excess Hedging Amount" in respect of such Hedging Calculation Period); and
(B)
with the prior written consent of the K-SURE Covered Facility Agent (acting on the instructions of K-SURE, acting reasonably), each such Orphan Hedge Provider may, on or subject to the proviso below, following the date such consent is given, terminate or close-out (in whole or in part) any Transactions under any Hedging Agreement to which it is a party prior to their stated maturity to the extent such Transactions are not permitted to be terminated or closed-out pursuant to (A) above,
provided that, if such repayment or prepayment would result in an Excess Hedging Event, then such Orphan Hedge Provider must exercise (or determine not to exercise) its termination right (and shall notify the Company of the same) as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which such Excess Hedging Event occurs (in the case of (A) above) or such consent is given (in the case of (B) above).
(e)
To the extent a required repayment or prepayment in full in accordance with Clause 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event) is made only in part (due to there being insufficient funds or otherwise) then, on, or subject to the proviso below, following the date of any such repayment or prepayment (each, a "Relevant Payment Date") an Orphan Hedge Provider may terminate or close-out (in whole or in part) any Transactions under any Hedging Agreement to which it is a party prior to their stated maturity to the extent of the Repayment Proportion of that Orphan Hedge Provider's Minimum Excess Hedging Amount for each Hedging Calculation Period, provided that, if such repayment or prepayment would result in an Excess Hedging Event, then such Orphan Hedge Provider must exercise (or determine not to exercise) its termination right (and shall notify the Company of the same) as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which such Excess Hedging Event occurs.

21.7
Termination by a Hedge Provider
Each Hedge Provider undertakes and agrees with each other Finance Party that it will not, at any time prior to the Hedge Provider End Date, exercise any right to terminate or close out (in whole or in part) any transactions under any Hedging Agreement prior to its stated maturity (whether by reason of the Company becoming a "Defaulting Party" thereunder or otherwise) unless:
(a)
there is an Event of Default with respect to the Company under Section 5(a)(i) (Failure to Pay or Deliver) of the Hedging Agreement, amended so as to provide for a grace period of seven (7) Local Business Days; or

(c)
the Global Facility Agent has given a notice under (A) Clause 28.1(a)(ii) (Remedies Following Event of Default), provided that, to the extent fees or amounts are due and payable only on demand or on such date as the Global Facility Agent may specify, a demand is in fact made or the date specified for payment has occurred, or (B) Clause 28.1(a)(iii) (Remedies Following Event of Default) where the Enforceability Date has occurred;
(d)
there is a Tax Event, a Tax Event upon Merger or an Illegality (in each case, as defined in the relevant Hedging Agreement);
(e)
the Global Facility Agent has given its prior written consent (acting on the instructions of the Required Majority) to such termination or closing-out;
(f)
there is a repayment or prepayment in full of the Floating Facilities pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Mandatory Prepayment - Sanctions Prepayment Event);
(g)
there is a repayment or prepayment in full of the Floating Facilities pursuant to Clause 6.8 (Mandatory Prepayment - Purchase Options);
(h)
there is a repayment or prepayment in full of the Floating Facilities pursuant to Clause 6.10 (Mandatory Prepayment - K-SURE Cover Event) and Clause 6.11 (Mandatory Prepayment - Commercial Lenders);

(ii)
Clause 6.16 (Right of Cancellation and Repayment in relation to a Single Lender);

(j)
(subject to the terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement), it provides written notice to the Company that, pursuant to clause 13.12(b)(ii) (Non-consenting Institutions) of the Coordination Deed, it elects to terminate all Transactions under the relevant Hedging Agreement;
(k)

(m)
the Global Facility Agent has required it to do so pursuant to Clause 21.8(a) (Compulsory Termination); or
(n)
it is permitted to do so pursuant to Clause 21.12 (Market Hedge Novation).

21.8
Compulsory Termination
(a)
Each Hedge Provider undertakes and agrees with the other Finance Parties that at any time after the Global Facility Agent has taken any of the actions contemplated by Clauses 28.1 (Remedies Following Event of Default), the Global Facility Agent may, by written notice to that Hedge Provider and the Company, require that Hedge Provider to terminate the transactions under any Hedging Agreement and the Hedge Provider shall comply with any such notice as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof.
(b)
The Company undertakes and agrees with the Finance Parties that, following an Additional Termination Event under a Hedging Agreement pursuant to Clause 21.2(b)(xvi) (Form of Hedging Agreements) above, the Global Facility Agent may, by written notice to the Hedge Provider and the Company, require the Company to terminate the Transactions under such Hedging Agreement and the Company shall comply with any such notice as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt thereof.

(b)
after Financial Close, to an existing Hedge Provider that is an Acceptable Hedge Provider; or
(c)
after Financial Close, to a bank or financial institution which on or before such transfer, accedes to the Common Terms Agreement and the Coordination Deed as a Hedge Provider in accordance with their terms and, at the time of such transfer, is an Acceptable Hedge Provider,
provided that, in each case, the transferee and the Company are, or upon the transfer become, party to a Hedging Agreement between them that complies with the terms of this Agreement and the Coordination Deed. The provisions of Clause 21.3 (Changes to Hedging Agreements) shall not apply to a transfer under this Clause 21.10 (Change of Hedge Provider).
21.11

If a Hedge Provider (or any guarantor of such Hedge Provider or any guarantor of AUB in its capacity as Hedge Provider incorporated outside the Kingdom of Bahrain) ceases to have the On-going Hedge Provider Rating Requirements (or, in the case of AUB in its capacity as Hedge Provider (or any guarantor of AUB in its capacity as Hedge Provider that is incorporated in the Kingdom of Bahrain), the On-going AUB Rating Requirements), the Global Facility Agent may (acting on the instructions of a Required Majority) give notice to such Hedge Provider in accordance with the terms of the relevant Hedging Agreement, as inserted by virtue of Clause 21.2(b)(xvi) (Form of Hedging Agreements) above.
21.12

22.
PERMITTED INVESTMENTS
22.1
Purchase of Permitted Investments
Subject to the provisions of this Clause 22 (Permitted Investments), the Company may from time to time require, by notice in writing signed by a duly authorised signatory of the Company, any Account Bank to apply amounts standing to the credit of any Operating Account held with such Account Bank (save for amounts in the Onshore Operating Account) in the purchase of Permitted Investments in the currency of the relevant Operating Account and in accordance with this Clause 22 (Permitted Investments). Any such Permitted Investment shall be treated, for the purposes of the Finance Documents, as an amount standing to the credit of the relevant Operating Account. In the event of any dispute as to the value of any Permitted Investment for the purposes of determining the amount treated as standing to the credit of an Operating Account, that value shall be determined in good faith by the Global Facility Agent (acting reasonably).
22.2
Investments in the Name of Company
All acquisitions of Permitted Investments will be made at the request of and on behalf of the Company by the relevant Account Bank and will be held in the name of the Company (or, where the Permitted Investments are in Bahrain, in the name of the Account Bank who shall act as agent of the Company for this purpose) and subject to Security Interests in accordance with Clause 22.3 (Security over Permitted Investments).
22.3
Security over Permitted Investments
Prior to, or simultaneously with, the purchase of any Permitted Investments, the Company shall execute such agreements (which shall be Security Documents) and do all such other acts or things as the Global Facility Agent reasonably considers to be necessary in order to create a Security Interest in Permitted Investments in favour of, in the case of Dollar denominated Permitted Investments, the Offshore Security Trustee and, in the case of Bahraini Dinar denominated Permitted Investments, the Onshore Security Agent, which is, as to priority and effect, satisfactory to the Global Facility Agent and, as to form and perfection, customary in relation to such Permitted Investments at the time at which such purchase is made (each a "Permitted Investment Security Document").
22.4
Disposal of Permitted Investments
(a)
The Company shall apply the proceeds of any disposal of Permitted Investments on receipt to the credit of the Operating Account from which such Permitted Investment was purchased, or to the appropriate Operating Revenues Account in the case of Permitted Investments purchased from funds standing to the credit of a Reserve Account, to the extent that any or all of those proceeds are not required to satisfy the DSRA Required Balance or the MRA Required Balance (as the case may be).
(b)
If:
(i)
any investment acquired in accordance with this Clause 22 (Permitted Investments) ceases to be a Permitted Investment; or
(ii)
any Security Interest over a Permitted Investment ceases to be perfected or to exist or fails to be maintained as a valid first priority security over such Permitted Investment,
the Company will, unless the Global Facility Agent otherwise consents, procure the disposal thereof as soon as practicable after becoming aware of such circumstance (and in no event no more than fourteen (14) days thereafter).
(c)
The Company shall ensure that Permitted Investments are disposed of to the extent necessary to ensure it is able to comply with each of its payment obligations under the Finance Documents. If the Company does not effect such disposal, the Global Facility Agent shall be entitled to realise or direct the realisation of, and shall realise or shall direct the realisation of, the security held over such Permitted Investments and/or dispose of such Permitted Investments on whatever terms it thinks fit and credit the proceeds to the relevant Operating Account, net of the costs and expenses of disposal (including, without limitation, such costs and expenses of the relevant Account Bank).

22.5

(a)
prior to such assignment or transfer, written notice is provided to the Company as to the identity and suitability of the New Lender and the Company has, in respect of any assignment or transfer that is proposed to be effected prior to the Completion Date, consented in writing to such assignment or transfer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and shall, in any event, be given or withheld within ten (10) Business Days of such notice and deemed given if not withheld within that period), provided that no notice will be given and the Company's consent will not be required if:
(i)
an Event of Default or Sanctions Event has occurred and is continuing;
(ii)
the proposed assignment or transfer is:
(A)
in favour of K-SURE in respect of the K-SURE Covered Facility in order to give effect to K-SURE's rights of subrogation pursuant to the K-SURE Insurance Policy;
(B)
in favour of another Existing Lender and/or an Affiliate of an Existing Lender;
(C)
to an institution that forms part of the European System of Central Banks (an "ESCB Central Bank") for refinancing and/or security purposes. If any receivables under any of the Facilities are assigned for security and/or refinancing purposes to an ESCB




Central Bank, the effectiveness of such assignment for security and/or refinancing purposes shall expressly not be subject to any formal requirements or notification to the Company;
(D)
if the Existing Lender is a fund, to a fund which is a Related Fund of the Existing Lender; or

(d)
a transfer will only be effective if the New Lender enters into a Coordination Deed of Accession and the procedure set out in Clause 34.4 (Procedure for Transfer) is complied with;
(e)
if:
(i)
an Existing Lender proposes an assignment or transfer of any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents (other than in favour of K-SURE in respect of the K-SURE Covered Facility in order to give effect to K-SURE's rights of subrogation pursuant to the K-SURE Insurance Policy) or changes its Facility Office; and

Acknowledgements and Undertakings
(a)
Each Reinsurer acknowledges that it is aware that the Company has been granted certain credit facilities by the Finance Parties and that, in connection therewith, the Insurer has by a Reinsurance Assignment Deed, assigned by way of first ranking security to the Offshore Security Trustee (for and on behalf of the Secured Parties) all its existing and future rights title and interest in and to the proceeds of all insurances relating to Project and the benefit of this Policy. Each Reinsurer confirms that it consents to such assignment and acknowledges that is has not been notified of any other assignment of or security interest in the Insurer's interest in this Policy.
(b)
The Insurer confirms that it has given irrevocable authority to the Company and/or the Offshore Security Trustee to pay reinsurance premiums due under this Policy directly to each Reinsurer via the Reinsurance Broker. The Insurer acknowledges that this arrangement does not relieve it of liability for any unpaid reinsurance premium. A payment of a reinsurance premium in accordance with this arrangement shall, to the extent of its payment to any Reinsurer, discharge the liability of the Insurer to pay premiums to such Reinsurer.
(c)
The Insurer shall promptly provide to each Reinsurer all information of an event or circumstance which may give rise to a claim under this Policy (though bona fide late notifications shall not prejudice the Insurer's rights hereunder).
(d)
Each Reinsurer agrees to follow the fortunes of the Insurer in relation to any claims which the Insurer is bound to pay as a result of any court or arbitral award which is not subject to appeal to a court of higher jurisdiction, subject to any applicable claims co-operation clause.
(e)
Each Reinsurer's obligation to pay under this Policy and in accordance with the claims control and loss payment provisions of this Policy arises when the Reinsurers agree that the Insurer's reinsured liability becomes payable in accordance with the terms of the Underlying Insurance and is not dependent on the Insurer having actually paid a claim or settled a liability to the Company, the Offshore Security Trustee, the Onshore Security Agent, the Finance Parties or any other person.
3.
Waiver
The Reinsurers hereby waive all rights of subrogation or action howsoever arising which they may have or acquire arising out of any occurrence in respect of which any claim is admitted hereunder against:
(a)
any of Finance Parties or their officers, directors, employees, agents and servants; and
(b)
the Company or the Insurer until the End Date.
Upon payment of any sum to any Secured Party pursuant to this paragraph 3 (Waiver), the Reinsurers shall to the extent of such payment be thereupon legally subrogated to all the rights of such Secured Party provided always that the Reinsurers shall not exercise any such rights howsoever arising in competition with the rights of any Secured Party in respect of the Project assets or any monies secured thereon.
4.
Consideration
The Reinsurers acknowledge receipt of consideration for the insurance of the Finance Parties in the Underlying Insurances and acknowledge that no Finance Party is liable for payment of any premium payable by the Insurer under this reinsurance although they may choose to make such payment. The Reinsurers shall not be entitled to offset any sums payable to a Finance Party against monies (other than unpaid premia) owing by the Company.
5.
Reinsureds
5.1
The Secured Parties and their respective officers, directors, employees, servants, agents and assigns are named reinsureds under the Policy.
5.2
The Reinsurers agree that each of the Reinsureds shall for the purpose of this Policy be treated as individually and separately reinsured and that reinsurance hereunder shall apply in the same manner and to the same extent as if individual policies had been issued to each of the Reinsureds provided that the total liability of the




Reinsurers under this Policy to the Reinsureds collectively shall not (unless the Policy specifically permits otherwise) exceed the Limit of Indemnity stated to be reinsured hereby.
6.
Receipt of Information
Each Reinsurer acknowledges for the benefit of the Reinsureds that:
a.
it has received adequate information in order to evaluate the risk of reinsuring the Insurer and the Secured Parties in respect of the risks hereby reinsured on the assumption that such information is not materially misleading; and
b.
notwithstanding any other provision of this reinsurance, there is no information that has been relied on or is required by it in respect of its decision to co-reinsure the Finance Parties.
7.
Vitiating Acts
7.1
The Reinsurers undertake to the Offshore Security Trustee (for and on behalf of the Secured Parties) that the Policy shall not be invalidated as regards the respective rights and interests of each Secured Party and that the Reinsurers will not seek directly or indirectly to avoid any liability under this Policy and/or the assignment thereof because of any act, neglect, error or omission made by any other Reinsured (whether occurring before or after the inception of this Policy), including any failure by any other Reinsured to disclose any material fact, circumstance or occurrence, any misrepresentation by any other Reinsured, any breach or non-fulfilment by any other Reinsured of any condition, warranty or provision contained in the Policy, whether or not any such act, neglect, error or omission could, if known at any time, have affected any decision of the Reinsurers to grant the Policy, to agree to any particular term or terms of the Policy (including this endorsement and the amount of any premium) or to act or refrain from acting in any way whatsoever in relation to this Policy or to any liability which may arise thereunder.
7.2

(100%) of the aggregate principal amount outstanding and expected to be outstanding in respect of the Floating Facilities in respect of each Calculation Period, in each case, as set out in the Financial Model or, if the debt profile as set out in the Financial Model no longer reflects the Company's expectation of the debt profile, the expected debt profile at the relevant time; and
(b)
from (but excluding) the Commercial Start Date up to (and including) the Final Maturity Date, for at least seventy five per cent. (75%) of the aggregate principal amount outstanding and expected to be outstanding in respect of the Floating Facilities in respect of each Calculation Period and up to one hundred per cent.

(b)
Subject to paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) below, each Interest Period shall end on the same numbered day (the "later equivalent day"), in the calendar month in which it is to end, as the numbered day on which the first Interest Period for that Facilities Advance would have ended, in each case in the absence of (and before) any adjustment pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Non-Business Days). Where there is no later equivalent day then, subject to paragraphs (c), (d) and (e) below, the relevant Interest Period shall end on the last calendar day of the calendar month in which it is to end, subject to adjustment pursuant to Clause 6.2 (Non-Business Days).
(c)
An Interest Period for a Facilities Advance shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date.
(d)
Each Interest Period for a Facilities Advance under this Agreement shall start on the Drawdown Date for such Facilities Advance or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period save in relation to any Interest Period which would otherwise end during the month preceding, or extending beyond, a Repayment Date, in which case, such Interest Period shall be of such duration that it shall end on that Repayment Date.
(e)
The Company agrees that the Interest Periods pursuant to this Clause 6.1 (Interest Periods) shall conform to the requirements of any Hedging Agreements entered into from time to time, so far as practically possible.

6.3
Consolidation of Facilities Advances
(a)
If two (2) or more Interest Periods relating to Commercial Bank Facility Advances made in the same currency end on the same date, those Commercial Bank Facility Advances will be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Commercial Bank Facility Advance made under the Commercial Bank Facility on the last day of the Interest Period.
(b)
If two (2) or more Interest Periods relating to Contingent Facility Advances made in the same currency end on the same date, those Contingent Facility Advances will be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Contingent Facility Advance made under the Contingent Facility on the last day of the Interest Period.
(c)

(d)
The Commercial Facilities Agent shall be entitled to shorten any Interest Period for any Facilities Advance to ensure that the aggregate principal amount of Facilities Advances with an Interest Period ending on a Repayment Date is not less than the amount of principal due to be repaid on that Repayment Date.
(e)
If paragraph (c) above would result in a Facilities Advance having an Interest Period of less than one (1) month, then the initial Interest Period for such Facilities Advance will be such period as the Commercial Facilities Agent and the Company may agree.
(f)
If the Commercial Facilities Agent makes any change to the Interest Period referred to in paragraph (d) of this Clause 6.3 (Consolidation of Facilities Advances), it shall promptly notify the Company and the Commercial Lenders.

7.
PAYMENT AND CALCULATION OF INTEREST
7.1
Payment of Interest
(a)
On the last day of each Interest Period, the Company shall pay accrued interest on the Facilities Advance to which that Interest Period relates.




(b)
In the event the Company prepays all or any part of a Facilities Advance or Unpaid Sum on any day other than the last day of an Interest Period, the Company shall pay interest accrued on that Facilities Advance or Unpaid Sum (or part thereof) from the first day of the Interest Period during which such prepayment occurs until the date of prepayment, and, in addition, any amounts payable pursuant to Clause 8.5 (Break Costs).

7.2
Calculation of interest
The rate of interest on each Facilities Advance for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:
(a)
Margin relating to the relevant Facilities Advance at that time; and
(b)
LIBOR.

7.3
Default Interest Periods
(a)
Default interest shall accrue on any Unpaid Sum from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgement) at a rate of two (2) per cent per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if the Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Facilities Advance in the currency of the Unpaid Sum, as the case may be, for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Commercial Facilities Agent. Any interest accruing under this Clause 7.3 (Default Interest Periods) shall be immediately payable by the Company on demand by the Commercial Facilities Agent.
(b)
Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an Unpaid Sum will be compounded with the Unpaid Sum at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that Unpaid Sum but will remain immediately due and payable.

8.2
Absence of quotations
Subject to Clause 8.3 (Market Disruption), if LIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Bank(s) but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time on the Quotation Day, the applicable LIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Bank(s).
8.3
Market Disruption
(a)

(ii)
the rate specified by notice to the Commercial Facilities Agent from that Commercial Lender as soon as practicable, and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Commercial Lender of funding its participation in that Facilities Advance from whatever source it may reasonably select.




(b)
In this Agreement "Market Disruption Event" means:
