REPAYMENT AND REDUCTIONS

Repayment and roll-over of Revolving Facility Loans

The Borrower shall repay each Revolving Facility Loan in full on the last day of its Interest Period, however so that where a Revolving Facility Loan (the “New Revolving Facility Loan”) is, subject to and in accordance with the other terms of this Agreement, to be made on a day which another Revolving Facility Loan “Maturing Revolving Facility Loan”) is due to be repaid, then:

(a) the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan shall be deemed to be repaid on the last day of its Interest Period to the extent that the amount of the New Revolving Facility Loan is equal to or greater than the amount of the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan; and

(b) to that extent, the amount of the New Revolving Facility Loan shall be deemed to have been credited to the account of the Borrower, and the Lenders shall only be obliged to make available an amount equal to the amount by which amount the New Revolving Facility Loan exceeds the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan.

If the Borrower has not delivered a Utilisation Request in respect of a Maturing Revolving Facility Loan in accordance with Clause 5.1 (Delivery of a Utilisation Request for Loan), the Maturing Revolving Facility Loan shall, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement and always provided that amounts in excess of the reduced Revolving Facility Commitment shall be repaid pursuant to Clause 8.2 (Scheduled Reductions of Revolving Facility Commitments) below, be automatically rolled over with an Interest Period of three (3) months provided that the conditions set out in Clause 4.4 (Further conditions precedent) are fulfilled.

14

For the avoidance of doubt, the above automatic rollover mechanism requires the Borrower to deliver a Utilisation Request for a specified amount or for a specified Interest Period if no automatic rollover is to take place.

INTEREST

Calculation of interest

The rate of interest for the Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of:

(a) the Applicable Margin;

(b) LIBOR; and

(c) Mandatory Costs (if any)

19

Effective interest pursuant to the Norwegian Financial Agreement Act of1999 No. 46 has been calculated by the Agent as set out in a separate notice from the Agent to the Borrower.

Payment of interest

The Borrower shall pay accrued interest on each Loan on each Interest Payment Date, however, if the Interest Period is longer than three (3) months, accrued interest shall be paid every three (3) months during that Interest Period and on the last day of that Interest Period.

Default interest

If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under the Finance Documents on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date and up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate determined by the Agent to be two per cent (2.00%) 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 for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 9.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligors on demand by the Agent. Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

Notification of rates of interest

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.

INTEREST PERIODS

Selection of Interest Periods

(a) The Borrower may select an Interest Period for a Loan in a Utilisation Request.

(b) Each Utilisation Request is irrevocable and must be received by the Agent not later than 10:00 hours (London time) three (3) Business Days before the commencement of that Interest Period.

(c) If the Borrower fails to deliver a Utilisation Request to the Agent in accordance with litra b) above, the relevant Interest Period will be three (3) months.

(d) For the Commercial Facility and the Revolving Facility, the Borrower may select an Interest Period of one (1), three (3) or six (6) months or any such other period agreed between the Borrower and the Agent (on behalf of the Lenders), provided that a selection of a one (1) month Interest Period is limited to three (3) times per calendar year.

(e) An Interest Period for the Loan shall not extend beyond the Final Maturity Date, but shall be shortened so that it ends on the Final Maturity Date.

(f) An Interest Period for the maturing part of a Loan shall not extend beyond the first subsequent scheduled repayment date after the Utilisation Date of such Loan, but shall be shortened so that it ends on such scheduled repayment date.

(g) Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the relevant Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period.

20

Non-Business Day

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).

Notification of Interest Periods

The Agent will notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the Interest Periods determined in accordance with this Clause 10.

CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

Market disruption

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to the Loan for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of the Loan for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) the rate notified to the Agent by that 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 Lender of funding its participation in the Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select.

(b) In this Agreement, “Market Disruption Event” means:

(i) at or about 11:00 hours (London time) on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period LIBOR is not available; or

(ii) before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in the Loan exceed fifty per cent (50.00%) of the Loans) that the cost to it or them of obtaining matching deposits in the London interbank market would be in excess of LIBOR.

Alternative basis of interest or funding

If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Borrower so requires, the Agent and the Borrower 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. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to this Clause 11.2 shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties.

Break Costs

The Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by a Finance Party, pay to that Finance Party its Break Cost attributable to all or any part of the Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for the Loan or Unpaid Sum.

(b) If a Tax deduction or withholding is required by law to be made by an Obligor:

(ii) the Obligor shall make that Tax deduction or withholding within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(c) Within thirty (30) days of making either a Tax deduction or withholding or any payment required in connection with that Tax deduction or withholding, the Obligor shall deliver to the Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax deduction or withholding has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

(c) A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to this Clause 14.1 shall notify the Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower. Each Finance Party shall as soon as practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a confirmation showing the amount of its Increased Costs.

28

(d) the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”.

Required Lenders’ instructions

(e) The Agent’s resignation notice shall only take effect upon appointment of a successor.

(f) Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this Clause 21. Its successor and each of the other Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had been an original Party.

(g) After prior written consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, the Required Lenders may, by notice to the Agent, require it to resign in accordance with litra b) above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with litra b) above.

Credit appraisal by the Lenders

Lenders

Without affecting the responsibility of the Obligors for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms to the Agent that it has been, and will continue to be, solely responsible for making its own independent appraisal and investigation of all risks arising under or in connection with any Finance Document, including (without limitation):

(a) the financial condition, status and nature of the Obligors;

(b) the legality, validity, effectiveness, adequacy or enforceability of any Finance Document and any other agreement, arrangement or document entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document; and

33

(c) whether that Lender has recourse, and the nature and extent of that recourse, against any Party or any of its respective assets under or in connection with any Finance Document, the transactions contemplated by the Finance Documents or any other agreement, arrangement or document, entered into, made or executed in anticipation of, under or in connection with any Finance Document.

Conduct of business of the Finance Parties

(a) interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

(b) oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or to the extent, order or manner of any claim; or

(c) oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.

PAYMENT MECHANICS

Payments to the Agent

All payments by the Obligors or a Lender under the Finance Documents, including but not limited to repayments, interests, guarantee premiums and fees (other than as provided for in the Common Terms Agreement) shall be made:

Distributions by the Agent

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 22.3 (Distributions to the Borrower) and 22.4 (Clawback), be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement, to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice.

Distributions to the Borrower

The Agent may (with the consent of the Borrower or in accordance with Clause 23 (Set-off), apply any amount received by it for the Borrower in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from the Borrower under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of currency to be so applied.

34

Clawback

(a) Where a sum is to be paid to the Agent under the Finance Documents for distribution to another Party, the Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum.

(c) thirdly, in or towards payment pro rata of all sums owed to the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents (except for the Hedging Agreements) at the time of default;

SET-OFF

A Finance Party may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, set off any matured obligation due from any Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any credit balance on any account that Obligor has with that Finance Party or against any other obligations owed by that Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation.

SCHEDULE 6

MANDATORY COST FORMULA

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the relevant Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the Additional Cost Rate) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a facility office in the European Economic Area will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that facility office) of complying with the relevant minimum reserve requirements in respect of Loans made from that facility office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a facility office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Agent as follows:

E x 0.01	Per cent. Per annum
300

Where:

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

Eligible Liabilities and Special Deposits have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

Fee Tariffs means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

50

Tariff Base has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

6. If requested by the Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

7. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its facility office; and

(b) any other information that the Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

8. The rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a facility office in the same jurisdiction as its facility office.

9. The Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above is true and correct in all respects.

10. The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above.

11. Any determination by the Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all parties.

(6) The Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower and the Lenders, determine and notify to all parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.
