6. REPAYMENT

6.1 Repayment of Facility A Loans

(a) The Borrower shall repay each Facility A Loan in full on the Final Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may not re-borrow any part of Facility A which is repaid.

6.2 Repayment of Facility B Loans

(a) Subject to paragraph (c), the Borrower shall repay each Facility B Loan in full on the last day of its Interest Period.

(b) Without prejudice to the Borrower’s obligation under paragraph (a) above, if:

(i) one or more Facility B Loans are to be made available to the Borrower in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (New Facility B Loans):

(A) on the same day that a maturing Facility B Loan is due to be repaid; and

(B) in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing such maturing Facility B Loan (as specified in the Utilisation Request(s) for such New Facility B Loans); and

(ii) each Lender’s aggregate participation in such New Facility B Loans (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate amount of such New Facility B Loans) is equal to such Lender’s participation in such maturing Facility B Loan (expressed as a percentage of the aggregate amount of such Facility B Loan),

the aggregate amount of such New Facility B Loans shall, unless the Borrower notifies the Agent to the contrary in the Utilisation Request(s) for such New Facility B Loans, be treated as if applied in or towards repayment of such maturing Facility B Loan so that:

(A) if the amount of such maturing Facility B Loan exceeds the aggregate amount of the New Facility B Loans:

I. the Borrower will only be required to make a payment in respect of such maturing Facility B Loan under Clause 27.1 (Payments to the Agent) in an amount equal to that excess; and

II. each Lender’s participation in such New Facility B Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in such maturing Facility B Loan and that Lender will not be required to make a payment under Clause 27.1 (Payments to the Agent) in respect of its participation in such New Facility B Loans; and

26

I. the Borrower will not be required to make a payment under Clause 27.1 (Payments to the Agent) in respect of such maturing Facility B Loan; and

II. each Lender will be required to make a payment under 27.1 (Payments to the Agent) in respect of its participation in such New Facility B Loans only to the extent that its participation in such New Facility B Loans exceeds that Lender’s participation in such maturing Facility B Loan and the remainder of that Lender’s participation in such New Facility B Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of that Lender’s participation in such maturing Facility B Loan.

(c) All of the Facility B Loans must be repaid in full on the Final Maturity Date.

(d) At any time when a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the maturity date of each of the participations of that Lender in the Facility B Loans then outstanding will be automatically extended to the last day of the Facility B Availability Period and will be treated as separate Facility B Loans (the Separate Loans) in which the relevant participations are outstanding.

(e) If the Borrower makes a prepayment of a Facility B Loan pursuant to Clause 7.4 (Voluntary prepayment of Facility B Loans), the Borrower may prepay a Separate Loan by giving not less than three Business Days’ prior notice to the Agent. The proportion borne by the amount of the prepayment of the Separate Loan to the amount of the Separate Loans shall not exceed the proportion borne by the amount of the prepayment of the Facility B Loans to the Facility B Loans.

(a) that Lender shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event and the Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower upon the receipt of such notification from that Lender;

(b) upon the Agent notifying the Borrower, the Available Commitment of that Lender in respect of each Facility will be immediately cancelled and reduced to zero and the Commitment of that Lender in respect of each Facility shall be reduced by the amount of the Available Commitment for such Facility so cancelled (and that Lender shall not be obliged to participate in the making of any Loan under any Facility); and

27

(c) to the extent that that Lender’s participation in each Loan has not been transferred to another person pursuant to Clause 7.5 (Right of repayment and cancellation in relation to a single Lender), the Borrower shall repay that Lender’s participation in each Loan on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan occurring after the Agent has notified the Borrower or, if earlier, the date specified by that Lender in the notice delivered to the Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law). Upon such prepayment of that Lender’s participation in any Loan under any Facility, the Commitment of that Lender in respect of that Facility shall be cancelled and reduced by the amount of such prepayment.

28

the Borrower may, whilst (in the case of paragraph (i)) the circumstance giving rise to such requirement continues (in the case of paragraph (ii)) the circumstance giving rise to such indemnification continues or (in the case of paragraph (iii)) such Lender continues to be a Defaulting Lender, give the Agent and that Lender written notice of its intention to procure the repayment of that Lender’s participation (if any) in the Loans and the cancellation of the Commitment of that Lender for each Facility (a Cancellation Notice).

(b) On receipt of a Cancellation Notice referred to in paragraph (a) above in respect of any Lender, the Available Commitment of that Lender for each Facility shall immediately be cancelled and reduced to zero (and the Commitment of that Lender for each Facility shall be reduced by the amount of the Available Commitment for such Facility so cancelled).

(c) On the last day of each Interest Period relating to any Loan which ends after the Borrower has given a Cancellation Notice under paragraph (a) above in respect of any Lender (or, if earlier, the date specified by the Borrower in that notice), the Borrower shall repay that Lender’s participation (if any) in that Loan (for the avoidance of doubt, together with all accrued interest on that Loan and all other amounts owing or payable to such Lender under the Finance Documents).

(e) The replacement of a Replaced Lender and the transfer of rights and obligations of such Replaced Lender to the applicable Replacement Lender pursuant to paragraph (d) above shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) the Borrower shall have no right to replace the Agent;

(ii) none of the Finance Parties (including without limitation such Replaced Lender) shall have any obligation to find a Replacement Lender;

(iii) in no event shall such Replaced Lender be required to pay, account for or surrender to such Replacement Lender for any amount (including without limitation any fees) received or recovered by such Replaced Lender pursuant to the Finance Documents prior to or in respect of any time prior to such transfer (except if any portion of such recovered amount is attributable to any amount receivable by such Replacement Lender after the date of such transfer from such Replaced Lender to such Replacement Lender);

(iv) such Replaced Lender shall not be obliged to make such transfer or execute any Transfer Certificate in respect of such transfer unless it is satisfied (acting reasonably) that it has completed all “know your customer” and other similar procedures that it is required to conduct in relation to such transfer to such Replacement Lender (and the Replaced Lender shall perform such procedures as soon as reasonably practicable following delivery of a Replacement Notice to it in respect of such transfer and shall notify the Agent and the Borrower when it is satisfied that it has completed such procedures);

(v) such Replaced Lender shall not be required to make any such transfer to the extent that such transfer is, or would be reasonably likely to result, in breach of or non-compliance with any applicable law or regulation, or any rules or regulations of any applicable securities exchange applicable to such Replaced Lender or such Replacement Lender; and

30

(vi) such Replaced Lender shall only be obliged to make such transfer if:

(A) in the case of paragraph (d)(i), (d)(ii) or (d)(iii), at the time of such transfer the circumstance giving rise to such requirement for increased payments to such Replaced Lender under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or such indemnification in favour of such Replaced Lender under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) or Clause 13 (Increased Costs) or the Borrower’s obligation to repay any Loan in accordance with Clause 7.1 (Illegality) (as the case may be) is continuing;

(B) in the case of paragraph (d)(iv), such transfer is to be made no later than 30 days after the date on which the Non-Consenting Event constituting such Replaced Lender a Non-Consenting Lender first arose, and such Non-Consenting Event is continuing at the time of such transfer; or

(C) in the case of paragraph (d)(v), such Replaced Lender continues to be a Defaulting Lender.

(i) the Borrower shall promptly notify the Agent upon becoming aware of that event; and

(ii) (irrespective of whether the Borrower has complied with paragraph (i) above):

(B) if the Majority Lenders so require, the Agent shall, by not less than 30 days’ notice to the Borrower, cancel the Facilities and declare all outstanding Loans, together with accrued interest and any Break Costs, and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents immediately due and payable, whereupon the Facilities (and the Commitment of each Lender for each Facility) will be cancelled and all of the outstanding Loans, together with accrued interest and any Break Costs, and all other amounts accrued under the Finance Documents will become immediately due and payable.

(b) For the purpose of paragraph (a) above, Change of Control means any person or group of persons acting in concert (other than any person or group of persons acting in concert who already control the Borrower as at the date of this Agreement (the Existing Controllers)) gains direct or indirect control of the Borrower. For the purpose of this definition:

31

(ii) control of a person means the power (whether by way of ownership of shares, proxy, contract, agency or otherwise) to:

(i) If all or part of any Lender’s participation in a Loan under any Facility is repaid or prepaid and is not available for redrawing (other than by reason of the operation of Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent)), an amount of that Lender’s Commitment in respect of that Facility (equal to the amount of such Lender’s participation in such Loan which is so repaid or prepaid) will be deemed to be cancelled on the date of such repayment or prepayment.

32

8. INTEREST

8.1 Calculation of interest

The rate of interest on each Loan at any time during an Interest Period relating thereto is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(a) Margin; and

(b) LIBOR for such Loan and such Interest Period.

8.2 Payment of interest

On the last day of each Interest Period relating to a Loan the Borrower shall pay accrued interest on such Loan.

8.3 Default interest

(a) If the Borrower fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on such Unpaid Sum from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below, is 1% per annum higher than the rate which would have been payable if such Unpaid Sum had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of such Unpaid Sum for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Agent.

(b) If any Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

(i) the first Interest Period for that Unpaid Sum shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

(ii) the rate of interest applying to that Unpaid Sum during that first Interest Period shall be 1% per annum higher than the rate which would have applied if that Unpaid Sum had not become due.

(c) Default interest (if unpaid) arising on any Unpaid Sum will be compounded with that Unpaid Sum at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that Unpaid Sum but will remain immediately due and payable.

8.4 Notification of rates of interest

9. INTEREST PERIODS

9.1 Selection of Interest Periods

(iii) if the Borrower fails to deliver a Selection Notice to the Agent in accordance with paragraph (a)(ii) above in relation to any Interest Period for a Facility A Loan, such Interest Period will, subject to paragraph (b), be the same as the preceding Interest Period applicable to that Facility A Loan; and

(iv) the Borrower may (pursuant to paragraph (a)(i)) select an Interest Period for any Loan of one, three or six Month(s) or any other period agreed between the Borrower and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders that have any participation in that Loan).

(c) Prior to the Syndication Date, an Interest Period for a Loan shall be one Month or such other period as the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders that have any participation in that Loan) and the Borrower may agree and any Interest Period which would otherwise end during the Month preceding or extend beyond the Syndication Date shall end on the Syndication Date.

(d) Each Interest Period for a Facility A Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date for such Loan or (if such Facility A Loan has already been made) on the last day of the preceding Interest Period relating to such Loan.

(e) The first Interest Period for the second or any subsequent Facility A Loan (each a Subsequent Loan) shall end on the last day of the Interest Period then current (or commencing) for each other Facility A Loan which is then outstanding when that Subsequent Loan is made.

(b) Subject to Clause 4.3 (Maximum number of Loans) and Clause 5.3 (Currency and amount), if the Borrower requests in a Selection Notice (delivered in respect of a Facility A Loan in accordance with Clause 9.1 (Selection of Interest Periods)) that such Facility A Loan be divided into two or more Facility A Loans, then such first-mentioned Facility A Loan will, on the last day of the current Interest Period relating thereto, be so divided into such number of Facility A Loans (as specified in such Selection Notice) each in such outstanding principal amount as specified in such Selection Notice, provided that the aggregate of such outstanding principal amounts so specified is equal to the outstanding principal amount of such first-mentioned Facility A Loan immediately before such division.

34

10. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

10.1 Unavailability of Screen Rate

(a) Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for any Loan and any Interest Period relating thereto, the applicable LIBOR for such Loan and such Interest Period shall be equal to the Interpolated Screen Rate for such Loan and a period equal in length to such Interest Period.

(b) Reference Bank Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for any Loan and any Interest Period relating thereto and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate for such Loan and such Interest Period, LIBOR for such Loan and such Interest Period shall be equal to the Reference Bank Rate as of the Specified Time and for such Loan and a period equal in length to such Interest Period.

(c) Cost of funds: If paragraph (b) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for such Loan and such Interest Period, there shall be no LIBOR for that Loan and that Interest Period and Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period.

10.2 Calculation of Reference Bank Rate

(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR for any Loan and any Interest Period relating thereto is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time, the Reference Bank Rate for such Loan and such Interest Period shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

(b) If at or about noon (London time) on the Quotation Day in respect of any Interest Period for any Loan, none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation for determining the Reference Bank Rate for such Loan and such Interest Period, there shall be no Reference Bank Rate for such Loan and such Interest Period.

10.3 Market disruption

If before 5pm in Hong Kong on the Business Day immediately following the Quotation Day for an Interest Period for a Loan, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in that Loan exceed 40% of that Loan) that the cost to it of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select would be in excess of LIBOR for that Loan and that Interest Period, then Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period.

10.4 Cost of funds

(a) If this Clause 10.4 applies to any Loan and any Interest Period relating thereto, the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of such Loan for such Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Margin; and

(ii) the rate notified to the Agent by that Lender as soon as practicable and in any event within five Business Days 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 that Loan from whatever source it may reasonably select and if any such percentage rate per annum is less than zero, then such percentage rate per annum shall be deemed to be zero.

35

(b) If this Clause 10.4 applies and the Agent or the Borrower so requires, the Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

(c) Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties.

(b) Each Finance Party shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Costs in relation to any Loan or any Unpaid Sum and any Interest Period relating thereto.

11. FEES

11.1 Commitment fee

(a) The Borrower shall, in respect of Facility B, pay to the Agent (for the account of each Lender) a commitment fee in US dollars computed and accruing on a daily basis at the rate of **% per annum on that Lender’s Facility B Available Commitment on each day of the Facility B Commitment Fee Accrual Period. For such purposes:

(i) Facility B Commitment Fee Accrual Period means the period commencing from (and including) the date falling three Months of the date of this Agreement to (and including) the last day of the Facility B Availability Period; and

(ii) such commitment fee accruing in favour of any Lender in respect of any day during the Facility B Availability Period shall be calculated on such Lender’s Facility B Available Commitment as at 5 p.m. in Hong Kong on such day (or, if any such day is not a Business Day, at 5 p.m. in Hong Kong on the immediately preceding Business Day).

(b) The accrued commitment fee under paragraph (a) is payable in arrears:

(i) on the last day of each successive period of three Months which ends during the Facility B Commitment Fee Accrual Period;

(ii) on the Final Maturity Date; and

12. TAX GROSS UP AND INDEMNITIES

12.1 Definitions

(a) In this Agreement:

Tax Credit means a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of any Tax.

Tax Deduction means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document, other than a FATCA Deduction.

Tax Payment means an increased payment made by the Borrower to a Finance Party under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) or a payment under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity).

(b) Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 12 a reference to “determines” or “determined” means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

12.2 Tax gross-up

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower to any Finance Party under any of the Finance Documents shall be made free and clear of and without any Tax Deduction unless the Borrower is required to make a Tax Deduction, in which case the sum payable by the Borrower (in respect of which such Tax Deduction is required to be made) shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that such Finance Party receives a sum net of any deduction or withholding equal to the sum which it would have received had no such Tax Deduction been made or required to be made.

(b) The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable by the Borrower to that Lender. If the Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower.

(c) If the Borrower is required to make a Tax Deduction, the Borrower shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

(d) Within 30 days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment (to which such Tax Deduction relates) evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that such Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment has been paid to the relevant taxing authority.

37

(e) The Agent shall not have any duty or obligation to facilitate the making of any Tax Deduction by the Borrower.

12.3 Tax indemnity

(a) Without prejudice to Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up), if any Finance Party is required to make any payment of or on account of Tax on or in relation to any sum received or receivable under any of the Finance Documents (including any sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by such Finance Party whether or not actually received or receivable) or if any liability in respect of any such payment is asserted, imposed, levied or assessed against any Finance Party, the Borrower shall, within ten Business Days of demand of the Agent, indemnify each Finance Party which suffers a loss or liability as a result against such payment or liability, together with any interest, penalties, costs and expenses payable or incurred in connection therewith, provided that this Clause 12.3 shall not apply to:

(i) any Tax imposed on and calculated by reference to the net income actually received or receivable by such Finance Party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by such Finance Party but not actually receivable) by the jurisdiction in which such Finance Party is incorporated;

(ii) any Tax imposed on and calculated by reference to the net income of the Facility Office of such Finance Party actually received or receivable by such Finance Party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by such Finance Party but not actually receivable) by the jurisdiction in which its Facility Office is located; or

(iii) to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

(A) is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up);

(B) would have been so compensated but was not so compensated solely because one or more of the exclusions contained in Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up);

(iv) any FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party; or

(v) is compensated for by Clause 12.5 (Stamp taxes) or Clause 12.6 (Indirect Tax).

12.4 Tax Credit

If the Borrower makes a Tax Payment in respect of a Finance Party and that Finance Party (acting in good faith) determines that:

(a) a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and

38

(b) that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,

that Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Borrower which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Borrower.

12.5 Stamp taxes

The Borrower shall:

(a) promptly (and in any event, within any applicable deadline or grace period required or permitted by applicable law or regulation) pay all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document; and

If any Indirect Tax is chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under or in connection with any Finance Document, that Party shall pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying the consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such Indirect Tax.

(b) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify that Finance Party against all Indirect Tax incurred by that Finance Party in respect of such costs or expenses to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such Indirect Tax.

The Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Borrower.

(h) The Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) or (g) above without further verification.

67

22.2 Conditions of assignment or transfer

(a) The consent of the Borrower shall be required in respect of any assignment and/or transfer made in accordance with Clause 22.1 (Assignments and transfers by the Lenders), except for:

(g) After consultation with the Borrower, the Majority Lenders may, by giving not less than 30 days’ notice to the Agent (or, at any time the Agent is an Impaired Agent, by giving any shorter notice determined by the Majority Lenders), require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above. In this event, the Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above but the cost of complying with paragraph (d) above shall be for the account of the Borrower.

For the purposes of the Finance Documents such Party shall be regarded as having received any amount so deducted.

25.17 Money laundering

Unless mandatorily required by applicable laws or regulations to which the Agent is subject, the Agent shall not be responsible to any Party for providing any certification or documents with respect to any information (except for any information in respect of itself) required for any anti-money laundering due diligence purpose.

25.18 Amounts paid in error

(a) If the Agent pays an amount to another Party and the Agent notifies that Party that such payment was an Erroneous Payment then the Party to whom that amount was paid by the Agent shall as soon as reasonably practicable following demand refund the same to the Agent. For the avoidance of doubt, no such other Party shall be liable to the Agent for any amount of interest in respect of that Erroneous Payment.

(b) Neither:

(i) the obligations of any Party to the Agent; nor

(ii) the remedies of the Agent (whether arising under this Clause 25.18 or otherwise) which relate to an Erroneous Payment,

(a) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of such receipt or recovery, to the Agent;

(b) the Agent shall determine whether such receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount that the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had such receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 27 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to such receipt, recovery or distribution; and

(c) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the Sharing Payment) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made (by reference to such receipt or recovery) in accordance with Clause 27.6 (Partial payments).

26.2 Redistribution of payments

The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the Borrower and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the Sharing Finance Parties) in accordance with Clause 27.6 (Partial payments) towards the obligations owing to such Sharing Finance Parties.

26.3 Recovering Finance Party’s rights

On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 26.2 (Redistribution of payments), as between the Borrower and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of such Recovered Amount equal to such Sharing Payment shall be treated as not having been paid by the Borrower (and the Borrower shall be liable to the Recovering Finance Party for a debt equal to such Sharing Payment, which debt is immediately due and payable).

86

26.4 Reversal of redistribution

To the extent that any part of such Recovered Amount received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party (which Recovered Amount gives rise to any Sharing Payment) becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

(a) each Sharing Finance Party shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to (i) the appropriate part of its share of such Sharing Payment (that is attributable to such Recovered Amount so repayable and repaid by such Recovering Finance Party) together with (ii) an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on such part of such Sharing Payment (or on such part of such Recovered Amount to which such Sharing Payment is attributable) which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay ((i) and (ii) being collectively the Redistributed Amount); and

(b) as between the Borrower and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to such Redistributed Amount shall be treated as not having been paid by the Borrower (and the Borrower shall be liable to such Sharing Finance Party for a debt equal to such Redistributed Amount, which debt is immediately due and payable).

26.5 Exceptions

(a) This Clause 26 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the Borrower.

(b) A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which that Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:

(i) it notified that other Finance Party of those legal or arbitration proceedings; and

27. PAYMENT MECHANICS

27.1 Payments to the Agent

(a) On each date on which the Borrower or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, the Borrower or that Lender (as the case may be) shall make the same available to the Agent (unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document) for value on the due date at the time and in such funds specified by the Agent as being customary at the time for settlement (in place of settlement) of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

(b) Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency of such payment with such bank as the Agent specifies.

87

(d) Each payment of any amount made by the Borrower to the Agent in accordance with any Finance Document (including without limitation paragraph (a) above) is made to the Agent for and on behalf of each Finance Party to whom such amount is owing.

27.2 Distributions by the Agent

(a) Each payment received or recovered by the Agent under any Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 27.3 (Distributions to the Borrower), Clause 27.4 (Clawback), Clause 27.6 (Partial payments) and Clause 25.16 (Deduction from amounts payable by the Agent), be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt or recovery to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (in the case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Agent by not less than five Business Days’ notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency of such payment.

(b) The Agent shall distribute payments received or recovered by it in relation to all or any part of a Loan to the applicable Lender(s) indicated in the records of the Agent as being so entitled on the applicable date, provided that the Agent is authorised to distribute payments to be made on the date on which any assignment or transfer becomes effective pursuant to Clause 22 (Changes to the Lenders) to the applicable Lender(s) so entitled immediately before such assignment or transfer took place regardless of the period to which such payments relate.

(c) The Agent is not under any obligation to make payment to any Finance Party on account of any amount owing by the Borrower to such Finance Party in the same currency as that in which such latter-mentioned amount is denominated.

27.3 Distributions to the Borrower

The Agent may (with the consent of the Borrower or in accordance with Clause 28 (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 any or all of the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

27.4 Clawback

(a) Where a sum is to be paid to the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, the Agent is not obliged to pay that sum to that other Party (or to enter into or perform any related exchange contract) until it has been able to establish to its satisfaction that it has actually received that sum.

(b) To the extent that the Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be the case that the Agent had not actually received that amount, then the Party to whom that amount (or the proceeds of any related exchange contract) was paid by the Agent shall on demand refund the same to the Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by the Agent, calculated by the Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

27.5 Impaired Agent

(a) If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, the Borrower or a Lender which is required to make a payment under any of the Finance Documents to the Agent for the account of any person in accordance with Clause 27.1 (Payments to the Agent) may instead either:

(i) pay that amount direct to such person; or

88

(ii) (if in its absolute discretion it considers that it is not reasonably practicable to pay that amount direct to such person) pay that amount (or the applicable part thereof payable to such person) to an interest-bearing account held with an Acceptable Bank and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Borrower or the Lender making that payment (the Paying Party) and designated as a trust account for the benefit of the Party or Parties beneficially entitled to that payment under the Finance Documents (the Recipient Party or Recipient Parties),

and in each case such payments must be made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents. Acceptable Bank means a bank or financial institution which has a rating for its long-term unsecured and non credit-enhanced debt obligations of BBB or higher by Standard & Poor’s Rating Services or Fitch Ratings Ltd or Baa2 or higher by Moody’s Investor Services Limited or a comparable rating from an internationally recognised credit rating agency.

(d) Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Agent, each Paying Party which has made a payment to a trust account in accordance with this Clause 27.5 (other than to the extent that such Paying Party has given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (e) below with respect to such trust account) shall give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom that trust account is held to transfer the amount of such payment (together with any accrued interest thereon) to the successor Agent for distribution in accordance with Clause 27.2 (Distributions by the Agent).

(e) A Paying Party which has made a payment to a trust account (on account of any amount payable by such Paying Party to a Recipient Party) in accordance with this Clause 27.5 shall, promptly upon request by that Recipient Party and to the extent:

(i) that it has not given an instruction pursuant to paragraph (d) above (with respect to such trust account); and

(ii) that it has been provided with the necessary information by that Recipient Party,

give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom such trust account is held to transfer such amount (so paid into and held in such account) together with any accrued interest thereon to that Recipient Party.

27.6 Partial payments

(a) If the Agent receives or recovers an amount from or in respect of the Borrower under or in connection with any Finance Document which amount is insufficient to, or is not applied to, discharge all the amounts then due and payable by the Borrower under the Finance Documents, such amount shall be applied towards the obligations of the Borrower under the Finance Documents, in the following order:

(i) first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of, and other amounts owing to, any Administrative Party (in each case for its own account) under the Finance Documents;

89

(ii) secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fee (other than as provided in paragraph (a)(i) above) or commission due to any or all of the Finance Parties but unpaid under the Finance Documents;

(c) Any amount expressed to be payable in a currency other than US dollars shall be paid in that other currency.

27.10 Change of currency

(a) Unless otherwise prohibited by law, if more than one currency or currency unit are at the same time recognised by the central bank of any country as the lawful currency of that country, then:

(i) any reference in the Finance Documents to, and any obligations arising under the Finance Documents in, the currency of that country shall be translated into, or paid in, the currency or currency unit of that country designated by the Agent (after consultation with the Borrower); and

(ii) any translation from one currency or currency unit to another shall be at the official rate of exchange recognised by the central bank for the conversion of that currency or currency unit into the other, rounded up or down by the Agent (acting reasonably).

90

(b) If a change in any currency of a country occurs, this Agreement will, to the extent the Agent (acting reasonably and after consultation with the Borrower) specifies to be necessary, be amended to comply with any generally accepted conventions and market practice in the Relevant Interbank Market and otherwise to reflect the change in currency.

27.11 Disruption to payment systems etc.

If either the Agent determines (in its discretion) that a Disruption Event has occurred or the Agent is notified by the Borrower that a Disruption Event has occurred:

(d) any such changes agreed upon by the Agent and the Borrower shall (whether or not it is finally determined that a Disruption Event has occurred) be binding upon the Parties as an amendment to (or, as the case may be, waiver of) the terms of the Finance Documents notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 33 (Amendments and Waivers);

(e) the Agent shall not be liable for any damages, costs or losses to any person, any diminution in value or any liability whatsoever (including for negligence, gross negligence or any other category of liability whatsoever but not including any claim based on the fraud of the Agent) arising as a result of its taking, or failing to take, any actions pursuant to or in connection with this Clause 27.11; and

(f) the Agent shall notify the Finance Parties of all changes agreed pursuant to paragraph (d) above.

28. SET-OFF

For so long as an Event of Default is continuing, a Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from the Borrower under any or all of the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to the Borrower, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation.

(b) its status as a Lender shall be disregarded for the purpose of ascertaining whether the agreement of all of the Lenders or any specified group of Lenders has been obtained to approve that request,

provided that (for the avoidance of doubt), if a Lender has split the votes attributable to its Commitment(s) in respect of any Facility or any participation in any Loan(s) in respect of any Facility in accordance with paragraph (f) of Clause 25.7 (Majority Lenders’ instructions) (a Splitting Lender), (i) such Splitting Lender shall be deemed (for the purposes of this Clause 33.3) to constitute different Lenders (each a Split Vote Lender), each holding its Split Commitment in respect of each Facility and its Split Participation in respect of each Loan in accordance with paragraph (f) of Clause 25.7 (Majority Lenders’ instructions), and (ii) if a Split Vote Lender fails to respond to any request in writing for any consent, waiver, amendment of or in relation to any term of any Finance Document or any instruction or vote relating to any other matter under any Finance Document, (A) the foregoing provisions of this Clause 33.3 shall only apply to such Split Vote Lender (in its capacity as Lender holding such Split Vote Lender’s Split Commitment in respect of any Facility and/or Split Participation in any Loan) and not any other Split Vote Lender notwithstanding that such other Split Vote Lender may be the same entity as such first-mentioned Split Vote Lender, and (B) for the purposes of paragraph (a), the Commitment of such Split Vote Lender in respect of each Facility shall be deemed to be its Split Commitment in respect of such Facility and the participation of such Split Vote Lender in any Loan shall be deemed to be its Split Participation in such Loan.

33.4 Disenfranchisement of Defaulting Lenders

(a) For so long as a Defaulting Lender has any Available Commitment, in ascertaining:

(i) the Majority Lenders or the Super Majority Lenders; or

(ii) whether:

(A) any given percentage (including, for the avoidance of doubt, unanimity) of the Total Commitments under the relevant Facilities; or

95

(B) the agreement of any specified group of Lenders,

has been obtained to approve any request for a consent, waiver, amendment or other vote of Lenders under the Finance Documents, that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments under the relevant Facilities will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the relevant Facilities and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender’s Commitments being zero, that Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.

(b) For the purposes of this Clause 33.4, the Agent may assume that the following Lenders are Defaulting Lenders:

(i) any Lender which has notified the Agent that it has become a Defaulting Lender;

(ii) any Lender in relation to which it is aware that any of the events or circumstances referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender” has occurred,

may be made with the consent of the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) and the Borrower.

96

(b) If, as at 1 January 2023, this Agreement provides that the rate of interest for a Loan is to be determined by reference to the Screen Rate for LIBOR:

(i) a Screen Rate Replacement Event shall be deemed to have occurred on that date in relation to the Screen Rate; and

(ii) the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations in good faith with a view to agreeing the amendments to this Agreement for the use of a Replacement Benchmark in relation to US dollars in place of that Screen Rate from and including a date no later than 30 June 2023.

(c) If a Replacement Benchmark and/or the terms of its use are not agreed by 30 June 2023 (the Fallback Event), LIBOR shall be replaced by SOFR compounded in arrears (the Fallback Rate) plus a spread adjustment selected or recommended by the Relevant Governmental Body for the replacement of LIBOR in relation to US dollars for a tenor approximately the same length as an Interest Period of one, three or six Month(s).

(d) The amendments required to implement the Fallback Rate shall be agreed by the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders) and the Borrower and must be operationally feasible for the Agent. To the extent practicable, the amendments shall be based on the provisions published or recommended by APLMA at the relevant time. At any time after 30 June 2023 but before any amendment contemplated by this paragraph (d) is entered into, the rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds).

(e) After the occurrence of the Fallback Event, if the Borrower requires to use an alternative rate of interest to replace the Fallback Rate, the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders and each Lender shall act reasonably without any delay) and the Borrower shall enter into further negotiations in good faith (for a period of no more than 45 days) with a view to agreeing the amendments to this Agreement for the use of a different Replacement Benchmark in relation to US dollars (the Alternative Fallback Rate).

(f) For the avoidance of doubt, after the occurrence of the Fallback Event, the Fallback Rate plus the spread adjustment referred to in paragraph (c) above shall be used before any amendment to use the Alternative Fallback Rate is made.

(g) In this Clause 33.5:

Quoted Tenor means, in relation to the Screen Rate, any period other than 1 week or 2 Months for which that Screen Rate is customarily displayed on the relevant page or screen of an information service and which may be selected as an Interest Period by the Borrower under Clause 9.1 (Selection of Interest Periods).
