99

(i) if it had been deducted from Senior Net Debt or Total Net Debt (as applicable) for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach; or

(ii) if it had been added to EBITDA for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach.

20.5 Determinations

(a) Financial Indebtedness of the Group and Bidco Parent originally denominated in any currency other than euro that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into euro, will be taken into account at its euro equivalent using the effective exchange rate in the relevant foreign exchange hedging transactions.

100

“Hedged Debt” means:

(i) Financial Indebtedness of the Group or Bidco Parent originally denominated in any currency other than euro in which any member of the Group or Bidco Parent earns EBITDA (a “functional currency”) and that has not been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into euro; and

20.6 Pro Forma Calculations

For the purposes of testing compliance with the financial ratios set out in this Clause 20 (Financial Covenants) and any other ratios in this Agreement, the calculation of such ratios shall be made on a pro forma basis giving effect to all material acquisitions and disposals made by the Group during the relevant period of calculation based on historical financial results of the items being acquired or disposed of, including reasonably identifiable and supportable net cost savings and any reasonably identifiable projected future savings in relation to synergies in connection with acquisitions or additional net costs, as the case may be, realisable as a result of such acquisitions and/or disposals, as projected by the Reporting Entity in good faith and confirmed in writing by Bidco.

24.1 Consequences of Non-Payment

If any sum due and payable by any Obligor under this Agreement is not paid on the due date therefor in accordance with the provisions of Clause 29 (Payments) or if any sum due and payable by any Obligor pursuant to a judgment of any court in connection with this Agreement is not paid on the date of such judgment, the period beginning on such due date or, as the case may be, the date of such judgment and ending on the Business Day on which the obligation of an Obligor to pay the Unpaid Sum is discharged shall be divided into successive periods, each of which (other than the first) shall start on the last day of the preceding such period (which shall be a Business Day) and the duration of each of which shall (except as otherwise provided in this Clause 24 (Default Interest)) be selected by the Facility Agent.

24.2 Default Rate

During each such period relating thereto as is mentioned in Clause 24.1 (Consequences of Non-Payment) an Unpaid Sum shall bear interest at the rate per annum which is the sum from time to time of 1%, the Margin (provided that if any Unpaid Sum is not directly referable to a particular Facility the Margin shall be the Revolving Facility Margin) and EURIBOR or LIBOR, as the case may be, on the Quotation Date therefor, provided that:

(d) if, for any such period, EURIBOR or LIBOR, as the case may be, cannot be determined, the rate of interest applicable to each Lender’s portion of such Unpaid Sum shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of 1%, the Margin, (as aforesaid) and the rate per annum that shall be notified to the Facility Agent by such Lender as soon as practicable after the beginning of such period as being that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Lender of funding from whatever sources it may reasonably select its portion of such Unpaid Sum during such period; and

(e) if such Unpaid Sum is all or part of an Advance which became due and payable on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period or Term relating thereto, the first Interest Period or Term applicable to it shall be of a duration equal to the unexpired portion of that Interest Period or Term and the rate of interest applicable thereto from time to time during such Interest Period or Term shall be that which exceeds by 1% the rate which would have been applicable to it had it not so fallen due.

24.3 Maturity of Default Interest

136

Any interest which shall have accrued under Clause 24.2 (Default Rate) in respect of an Unpaid Sum shall be due and payable and shall be paid by the Obligor owing such sum at the end of the period by reference to which it is calculated or on such other dates as the Facility Agent may specify by written notice to such Obligor.

24.4 Construction of Unpaid Sum

Any Unpaid Sum shall (for the purposes of this Clause 24 (Default Interest), Clause 16 (Increased Costs) and Clause 26.19 (Borrower’s Indemnities)) be treated as an advance and accordingly in those provisions the term “Advance” includes any Unpaid Sum and the term “Interest Period” and “Term”, in relation to an Unpaid Sum, includes each such period relating thereto as is mentioned in Clause 24.1 (Consequences of Non-Payment).

(a) If, at any time, the Facility Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, a Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 29.1 (Payment to the Facility Agent) may instead either pay that amount direct to the required recipient or pay that amount to an interest-bearing account (the “Trust Account”) held with an Acceptable Bank within the meaning of paragraph (a) of the definition of “Acceptable Bank” and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Finance Party beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents. In each case such payments must be made within 5 Business Days of the due date for payment under the Finance Documents.

Where a sum is to be paid under the Finance Documents to the Facility Agent for the account of another person, the Facility Agent shall not be obliged to make the same available to that other person (or to enter into or perform any exchange contract in connection therewith) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received such sum, but if it does so and it proves to be the case that it had not actually received such sum, then the person to whom such sum (or the proceeds of such exchange contract) was (or were) so made available shall on request refund the same to

153

the Facility Agent together with an amount sufficient to indemnify and hold harmless the Facility Agent from and against any cost or loss it may have suffered or incurred by reason of its having paid out such sum (or the proceeds of such exchange contract) prior to its having received such sum.

(e) the Facility Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses whatsoever (including, without limitation for negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Facility Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 29.8 (Disruption to Payment Systems); and

33.16 Security Over Lenders’ Rights

In addition to the other rights provided to Lenders under this Clause 33 (Assignments and Transfers) each Lender may without consulting with or obtaining consent from any Obligor, at any time charge, assign or otherwise create Security in or over (whether by way of collateral or otherwise) all or any of its rights under any Finance Document to secure obligations of that Lender including, without limitation:

(a) any charge, assignment or other Security to secure obligations to a government authority, department or agency as well as a federal reserve or central bank; and

33.17 Pro rata Interest Settlement

If the Facility Agent has notified the Lenders that it is able to distribute interest payments on a “pro rata basis” to Transferors and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 33.6 (Transfer Deed) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 33.5 (Assignments) the date of transfer or assignment of which, in each case, is after the date of such notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period or Term):

(a) any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time shall continue to accrue in favour of the Transferor up to but excluding the date of transfer (“Accrued Amounts”) and shall become due and payable to the Transferor (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period or Term (or, if the Interest Period or Term is longer than six months, on the next of the dates which falls at six monthly intervals after the first day of that Interest Period or Term); and

(b) the rights assigned or transferred by the Transferor will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts so that, for the avoidance of doubt:

169

(i) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable for the account of the Transferor; and

(ii) the amount payable to the New Lender on that date will be the amount which would, but for the application of this Clause 33.17 (Pro rata Interest Settlement), have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts.

33.18 Notification

The Facility Agent shall, within 10 Business Days of receiving a notice relating to an assignment pursuant to Clause 33.5 (Assignments) or a notice from a Lender or the giving by the Facility Agent of its consent, in each case, relating to a change in such Lender’s Facility Office, notify the Borrowers of any such assignment, transfer or change in Facility Office, as the case may be.

(iii) in determining whether the requisite level of consent has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents such Commitment shall be deemed to be zero; and

(iv) for the purposes of Clause 39.2 (Consents), such Bidco Affiliate or the person with whom it has entered into such sub-participation, other agreement or arrangement shall be deemed not to be a Lender.

33.1 Designated Entities

The Designated Entity is a party to this Agreement for these purposes.

(e) For the purposes only of voting in connection with any Finance Document, the participation of a Designated Entity in any outstanding Advances shall be deemed to be a participation of the Related Lender.

or waiver were to that proportion of the Lenders participating in that particular Utilisation or Facility.

39.11 Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders

(a) For so long as a Defaulting Lender has any Available Commitments, in determining whether the requisite level of consent has been obtained for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote under the Finance Documents, that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments.

(b) For the purposes of this Clause 39.11 (Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders), the Facility Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:
