5.            SUBORDINATION

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Note, payments under this Note (the “Junior Obligations”) shall be subordinated to the prior payment in full of the principal, interest, fees and any other amounts (the “Senior Obligations”) outstanding under the Amended and Restated Facilities Agreement, dated April 1, 2015, among Höegh LNG Cyprus Limited and Höegh LNG FSRU IV Ltd., as borrowers, the guarantors, financial institutions and agents party thereto from time to time and Nordea Bank Norge ASA as Agent, Security Trustee and Account Bank (as the same may be further amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “MUSD 412 Facility”). Holders of the Senior Obligations will be entitled to receive payment in full of all Senior Obligations before Payee will be entitled to receive any payment with respect to the Junior Obligations in the event of any distribution to creditors of Payor: (i) in a liquidation or dissolution of Payor; (ii) in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to Payor and its properties; (iii) in an assignment for the benefit of creditors; (iv) in any marshalling of the assets and liabilities of Payor; or (v) at any time during which a Default (as defined in the MUSD 412 Facility) has occurred and is continuing.

Amounts received by Payee in respect of the Junior Obligations when payment thereof is prohibited by this Section 5 shall be held by Payee in trust for the benefit of the holders of the Senior Obligations and turned over to the holders of the Senior Obligations upon the written request of the Security Trustee (as defined under the MUSD 412 Facility).

6.            MISCELLANEOUS

Payor agrees to pay on demand all the losses, costs, and expenses (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) which Payee incurs in connection with enforcement of this Note, or the protection or preservation of Payee’s rights under this Note, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise. Such costs and expenses include, without limitation, those incurred in connection with any workout or refinancing, or any bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceedings.

No single or partial exercise of any power under this Note shall preclude any other or further exercise of such power or exercise of any other power. No delay or omission on the part of Payee in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right or any other right hereunder.

This Note shall be binding on each of Payor and Payee and their respective successors and assigns. Payor may not assign or transfer this Note or any of its obligations hereunder without Payee’s prior written consent; Payee may assign or transfer this Note to any other Person in its sole and absolute discretion.

No provision of this Note shall alter or impair the obligation of Payor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and any premium and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed, subject to Payor’s right to redeem all or a portion of this Note as provided herein or as otherwise agreed to by the parties.

Any indebtedness under the Prior Note continues under this Note, and the execution of this Note does not indicate a payment, satisfaction, novation or discharge of such indebtedness.
