- 23 -

request from or any new or revised requirement of any central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority whether or not having the force of law but, if not having the force of law, only if compliance with such request or requirement is in accordance with the general practice of persons to whom such request or requirement is intended to apply (including, without limitation, a request or requirement which affects the manner in which a Bank or any holding company of such Bank is required to or does maintain capital resources having regard to such Bank's obligations under this Agreement and to amounts owing to it thereunder):

a Bank or any holding company of such Bank is unable to obtain the rate of return on its overall capital which it would have been able to obtain but for such Bank having entered into and/or performing its obligations and/or assuming or maintaining a commitment under this Agreement and/or making one or more Advances thereunder under such circumstances;
 
 
12.1.3
there is any increase in the cost to a Bank or any holding company of such Bank of funding or maintaining all or any of the advances comprised in a class of advances formed by or including the Advances made or to be made by such Bank under this Agreement; or

13.
Illegality
 
If, at any time, it is or will become unlawful for a Bank to make, fund or allow to remain outstanding all or part of its share of the Advances, then that Bank shall, promptly after becoming aware of the same, deliver to the Borrower through the Facility Agent a notice to that effect and:
 
 
13.1.1
such Bank shall not thereafter be obliged to participate in the making of any Advances and the amount of its Available Commitment shall be immediately reduced to zero; and
 
 
13.1.2
if the Facility Agent on behalf of such Bank so requires, the Borrower shall on such date as the Facility Agent shall have specified repay (without prepayment fee or penalty) such Bank’s share of any outstanding Advances as shall be necessary to comply with, or as required by, the relevant law, regulation or directive, together with accrued interest thereon and all other amounts owing to such Bank under the Finance Documents in respect of the amount repaid and any repayment of Advances so made shall reduce rateably the remaining obligations of the Borrower under Clause 8 (Repayment of the Facility).

14.1.2
a claim for indemnification pursuant to Clause 10.2 (Tax Indemnity) or Clause 12.1 (Increased Costs); or

- 25 -

Facility Office or another financial institution), provided that such Bank shall be under no obligation to take any such action if to do so would or might in its opinion result in such Bank incurring any material cost, expenses or liability or have an adverse effect upon its business, operations or financial condition or would otherwise be prejudicial to it.
