TAX GROSS-UP AND INDEMNITY 12.1 All payments to be made by the Borrower to any Finance Party under any Finance Document shall be made free and clear of and without Tax Deduction unless the Borrower is required to make such 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 the relevant Finance Party receives a sum net of any such Tax Deduction equal to the sum which it would have received had no such Tax Deduction been required to be made. 12.2 A payment shall not be increased if on the date on which the payment falls due, the payment could have been made to a Finance Party without a Tax Deduction if either (i) that Finance Party had complied with its obligations at Clause 12.3 or Clause 31.1(a) (Mitigation) or (ii) the Facility Office of that Finance Party was in Qatar. 12.3 Each Finance Party and the relevant Obligor the Borrower shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for the relevant Obligor to obtain authorisation to make any payments under the Finance Documents without a Tax Deduction. 12.4 Each Finance Party shall notify the Facility Agent (and the Facility Agent shall so notify the Borrower) promptly upon that Finance Party becoming aware of any Tax Deduction being required or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction in respect of a payment payable to it or by it. 12.5 The Borrower shall (within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document. 12.6 Clause 12.5 shall not apply: (a) with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party: (i) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes; or (ii) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party’s Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party; or (b) to the extent a loss, liability or cost: (i) is compensated for by an increased payment under Clauses 12.1; (ii) would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.1 but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Clause 12.2 applied; or (iii) relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.


 
28 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 12.7 If an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party obtains a Tax Credit attributable to the payment or deduction or withholding to which such Tax Payment relates, the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor which that Finance Party reasonably determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Obligor not made the applicable Tax Payment. 13.

FATCA INFORMATION 14.1 FATCA confirmation (a) Subject to paragraph (c) below, each Party must, within ten (10) Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party: (i) confirm to that other Party whether it is: (A) a FATCA Exempt Party; or (B) not a FATCA Exempt Party; and (ii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with FATCA; and (iii) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party’s compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime. (b) If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not, or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party must notify that other Party promptly. (c) A Finance Party is not obliged to do anything under paragraph (a) above, and no other Party is obliged to do anything under paragraph (a)(iii) above, in each case, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of: (i) any law or regulation; (ii) any fiduciary duty; or (iii) any duty of confidentiality. 14.2 Failure to confirm FATCA status


 
29 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with Clause 14.1(a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 14.1(c) (FATCA confirmation) applies), then such Party is to be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information. 15.

51 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 22.3 Conditions to assignment by the Lenders Subject to the provisions of Clause 22.2 (Assignment by the Lenders): (a) an Existing Lender shall not be responsible to a New Lender for: (i) the execution, genuineness, validity, enforceability or sufficiency of any Finance Document or any other document; (ii) the payment of any amounts under Clause 24 (Payments by the Facility Agent – Limited Recourse) to such New Lender; or (iii) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document; (b) each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender, the Administrative Agents and the other Lenders that it: (i) has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower in connection with its participation in the Loans and has not relied on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and (ii) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower while any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents; (c) nothing in this Agreement or any Finance Document obliges an Existing Lender to: (i) accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 22; or (ii) support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non- performance by the Borrower of its obligations under any Finance Document or otherwise; (d) any reference in this Agreement or any Finance Document to a Lender includes a New Lender but excludes a Lender if: (i) no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and the Finance Documents; and (ii) its Tranche Commitments have been cancelled or otherwise reduced to zero; and (e) if: (i) a Lender assigns or transfers any of its rights or obligations under the Finance Documents or changes its Facility Office; and (ii) as a result of circumstances existing at or after the date the assignment, transfer or change occurs, an Obligor would be obliged to make a payment to the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office under Clause 12 (Tax gross-up and indemnity) or Clause 30 (Increased Costs) of this Agreement or Clause 6 of the relevant Guarantee,


 
52 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 then the New Lender or Lender acting through its new Facility Office is only entitled to receive payment under those Clauses to the same extent as the Existing Lender or Lender acting through its previous Facility Office would have been if the assignment, transfer or change had not occurred. 22.4 Procedure for transfer (a) Subject to the conditions set out in Clauses 22.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 22.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders), a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent must, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Transfer Certificate appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement execute that Transfer Certificate. (b) The Facility Agent is only obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” checks or other similar checks under any applicable law or regulation in relation to the transfer to such New Lender. (c) Subject to Clause 22.6 (Pro rata interest settlement) on the Transfer Date: (i) to the extent that in the Transfer Certificate the Existing Lender seeks to transfer by novation its rights and obligations under the Finance Documents the Borrower and the Existing Lender will be released from further obligations towards one another under the Finance Documents and their respective rights against one another under the Finance Documents will be cancelled insofar as the Borrower and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the Borrower and the Existing Lender (being the Discharged Rights and Obligations); (ii) each of the Borrower and the New Lender will assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another which differ from the Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as the Borrower and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of the Borrower and the Existing Lender; (iii) each Administrative Agent, the New Lender and other Lenders will acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent each Administrative Agent and the Existing Lender will each be released from further obligations to each other under the Finance Documents; and (iv) the New Lender will become a Party as a Lender. (d) Each Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to enter into and deliver any duly completed Transfer Certificate on its behalf. 22.5 Procedure for assignment (a) Subject to the conditions set out in Clauses 22.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 22.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders), an assignment may be effected in


 
53 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 accordance with paragraph (c) below when the Facility Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender. The Facility Agent must, subject to paragraph (b) below, as soon as reasonably practicable after receipt by it of a duly completed Assignment Agreement appearing on its face to comply with the terms of this Agreement and delivered in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, execute that Assignment Agreement. (b) The Facility Agent is only obliged to execute an Assignment Agreement delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender once it is satisfied it has complied with all necessary “know your customer” checks and other similar checks under any applicable law or regulation in relation to the assignment to such New Lender. (c) Subject to Clause 22.6 (Pro rata interest settlement), on the Transfer Date: (i) the Existing Lender will assign absolutely to the New Lender the rights under the Finance Documents expressed to be the subject of the assignment in the Assignment Agreement; (ii) the Existing Lender will be released by the Borrower and the other Finance Parties from the obligations owed by it (the Relevant Obligations) and expressed to be the subject of the release in the Assignment Agreement; (iii) the New Lender will become a Party as a Lender and will be bound by obligations equivalent to the Relevant Obligations; (iv) if the assignment relates only to part of the Existing Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans that part will be separated from the Existing Lender’s participation in the outstanding Loans, made an independent debt and assigned to the New Lender as a whole debt; and (v) the Facility Agent’s execution of the Assignment Agreement as agent for the Borrower will constitute notice to the Borrower of the assignment. (d) Each Party (other than the Existing Lender and the New Lender) irrevocably authorises the Facility Agent to enter into and deliver any duly completed Assignment Agreement on its behalf. (e) Lenders may utilise procedures other than those set out in this Clause 22.5(Procedure for assignment) to assign their rights under the Finance Documents (but not, without the consent of the Borrower or unless in accordance with Clause 22.4 (Procedure for transfer), to obtain a release by the Borrower from the obligations owed to the Borrower by the Lenders nor the assumption of equivalent obligations by a New Lender) provided that they comply with the conditions set out in in Clauses 22.2 (Assignment by the Lenders) and 22.3 (Conditions to assignment by the Lenders). 22.6 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 Existing Lenders and New Lenders then (in respect of any transfer pursuant to Clause 22.4 (Procedure for transfer) or any assignment pursuant to Clause 22.5 (Procedure for assignment) the Transfer Date of which, in each case, is after the date of that notification and is not on the last day of an Interest Period): (a) any interest or fees in respect of the relevant participation which are expressed to accrue by reference to the lapse of time will continue to accrue in favour of the Existing Lender up to but excluding the Transfer Date (Accrued Amounts) and will


 
54 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 become due and payable to the Existing Lender (without further interest accruing on them) on the last day of the current Interest Period; and (b) the rights assigned or transferred by the Existing Lender will not include the right to the Accrued Amounts, so that: (i) when the Accrued Amounts become payable, those Accrued Amounts will be payable to the Existing Lender; 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 22.6, have been payable to it on that date, but after deduction of the Accrued Amounts. 22.7 Copy of Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement to Borrower The Facility Agent must, as soon as reasonably practicable after it has executed a Transfer Certificate or an Assignment Agreement, send to the Borrower a copy of that Transfer Certificate or Assignment Agreement. 22.8 Resignation and termination of appointment of an Administrative Agent (a) An Administrative Agent may, subject to consultation with the Borrower, resign by giving 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower, in which case the Majority Lenders may appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If the Majority Lenders have not appointed a successor Administrative Agent within 20 days after notice of resignation was given, the retiring Administrative Agent may appoint a successor Administrative Agent. (b) The Facility Agent’s resignation notice will take effect upon the appointment of a successor Facility Agent. (c) The Security Agent’s resignation notice will take effect upon: (i) the appointment of a successor Security Agent; and (ii) the transfer of all Security Property to that successor. (d) If for any reason an Administrative Agent becomes incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent, it may and, if requested by the Majority Lenders, shall resign pursuant to the above paragraph. (e) The Facility Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph (a) above) if on or after the date that is three months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents, either: (i) the Facility Agent fails to respond to a request under Clause 14 (FATCA Information) and the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; (ii) the information supplied by the Facility Agent pursuant to Clause 14 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or (iii) the Facility Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the Facility Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date,


 
55 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 and (in each case) the Borrower or a Lender reasonably believes that a Party will be required to make a FATCA Deduction that would not be required if the Facility Agent were a FATCA Exempt Party, and the Borrower or that Lender (as applicable), by notice to the Facility Agent, requires it to resign. (f) An Administrative Agent who is retiring or whose appointment has been terminated pursuant to this Clause 22.8 (the Retiring Administrative Agent) shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Administrative Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Administrative Agent may reasonably require for the purposes of performing its functions as Administrative Agent under the Finance Documents. (g) Where the circumstances leading to an Administrative Agent becoming incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent and therefore being required to resign pursuant to paragraph (d) may be attributed to such Administrative Agent’s own acts or omissions, that Administrative Agent shall be liable for any loss or damage caused to the Lenders as a result of it becoming incapable of performing its obligations hereunder as an Administrative Agent. (h) Upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent, the Retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents but shall remain entitled to the benefit of this paragraph (h). Any successor Administrative Agent 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 to this Agreement. 22.9 Conditions to assignment by Administrative Agent No assignment or transfer entered into by an Administrative Agent pursuant to Clause 22.8(a) (Resignation and termination of appointment of an Administrative Agent) or Clause 22.8(d) (Resignation and termination of appointment of an Administrative Agent) shall be effective: (a) until such assignee or transferee has agreed in writing with the Lenders and the Borrower that it has assumed the obligations of the existing Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) under this Agreement and the Finance Documents whereupon the existing Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall be released from all of its obligations hereunder and the successor and each of the Parties shall have the same rights and obligations amongst themselves as they would have had if such successor had originally been a Party as Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) from the date of this Agreement; and (b) unless: (i) such assignment or transfer is with the Borrower’s prior written consent; or (ii) an Event of Default is continuing. 22.10 Assignment by the Borrower The Borrower shall not be entitled to assign or transfer any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement. 23. APPOINTMENT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS 23.1 Appointment of the Facility Agent (a) Each Lender irrevocably:


 
56 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 (i) appoints the Facility Agent to act as its agent under and in connection with the Finance Documents; (ii) authorises the Facility Agent (whether or not by or through its employees or agents) to: (A) enter into on its behalf each Finance Document expressed to be entered into by the Facility Agent; (B) give any authorisation, confirmation or consent expressed to be given by the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents; and (C) to perform such duties and take such action on its behalf and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to the Facility Agent by the Finance Documents, together with such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto (but subject to any restrictions or limitations specified in this Agreement). (b) The Facility Agent shall not have any duties, obligations or liabilities (whether fiduciary or otherwise) to any Finance Party beyond those expressly stated in the Finance Documents. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature as more particularly set out in this Agreement. 23.2 Appointment of the Security Agent (a) Each Finance Party (other than the Security Agent) irrevocably: (i) appoints the Security Agent to act as its trustee and/or agent (as applicable) under, in connection with and on the terms and conditions contained in the Finance Documents; (ii) authorises the Security Agent (whether or not by or through its employees or agents) to: (A) enter into and deliver on its behalf each Finance Document expressed to be entered into by the Security Agent; (B) give any authorisation, confirmation or consent expressed to be given by the Security Agent under the Finance Documents; and (C) to perform such duties and take such action on its behalf and to exercise such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are specifically delegated to the Security Agent by the Finance Documents, together with such rights, remedies, powers and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto (but subject to any restrictions or limitations specified in this Agreement). (b) The Security Agent shall not have any duties, obligations or liabilities (whether fiduciary or otherwise) to any Finance Party beyond those expressly stated in the Finance Documents. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature as more particularly set out in this Agreement. (c) The Security Agent declares that it holds the Security Property on trust for the Finance Parties on the terms contained in this Agreement.


 
57 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 (d) In relation to any jurisdiction the courts of which would not recognise or give effect to the trust expressed to be created under paragraph (c), the relationship of the Finance Parties to the Security Agent shall be construed as one of principal and agent but, to the extent permissible under the laws of that jurisdiction, all the other provisions of this Agreement shall have full force and effect between the Parties. (e) For the purposes of paragraph (d) only, the Borrower hereby undertakes to pay to the Security Agent amounts equal to any amounts owing by it to any Lender or the Facility Agent in respect of the Secured Obligations as and when the same fall due for payment by it under the Finance Documents (as applicable) (the Parallel Debt) so that the Security Agent shall be an obligee of such covenant to pay and the Security Agent shall be entitled to claim performance thereof in its own name and not only as Security Agent acting on behalf of the Lenders. The Parallel Debt owed by the Borrower (i) shall be decreased to the extent that the Secured Obligations to which such Parallel Debt corresponds have been decreased under and in accordance with the Finance Documents (as applicable) and vice versa; and (ii) shall not exceed the aggregate of the Secured Obligations owed by the Borrower. The Security Agent agrees with the other Finance Parties that it will not exercise its rights as creditor of the Parallel Debt except in accordance with this Agreement. (f) Nothing in this Agreement constitutes the Security Agent as an agent, trustee or fiduciary of any Obligor. (g) Each of the Security Agent and any Receiver may, at any time, delegate by power of attorney or otherwise to any person for any period, all or any right, power, authority or discretion vested in it in its capacity as such. 23.3 Acceptance By its signature to this Agreement each Administrative Agent accepts its appointment as set out in this Clause 23. 23.4 Authority Any action taken by an Administrative Agent under or in relation to the Finance Documents with requisite authority, or on the basis of appropriate instructions, received from the Lenders (or as otherwise duly authorised) shall be binding on the Lenders. 24. PAYMENTS BY THE FACILITY AGENT – LIMITED RECOURSE 24.1 Payments to Lenders Subject to Clause 24.2 (Limited recourse), the Facility Agent will pay the Lenders amounts in respect of their participations in the Loans on the dates and otherwise on the terms set out in this Clause 24 (Payments by the Facility Agent – Limited Recourse). 24.2 Limited recourse The obligation of the Facility Agent to pay the Lenders the Relevant Percentage of a Repayment Instalment or any other Remittance pursuant to the terms of this Agreement is conditional upon the Facility Agent having received the corresponding payment from the Borrower pursuant to the relevant Finance Document. The Lenders shall have no recourse to the Facility Agent in the event of any failure by the Borrower to make any such payments, except if such a failure by the Borrower is caused by fraud, gross negligence or wilful default on the part of the Facility Agent. The Lenders acknowledge and agree that the primary credit


 
58 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 risk assumed by the Lenders in relation to their participation in each Loan (and their entry into this Agreement) is that of the Borrower. 24.3 Distribution of Remittances to Lender Subject to Clause 24.2 (Limited recourse), whenever the Facility Agent: (a) has actually received a payment from the Borrower in respect of a Remittance; and (b) is entitled to apply the amount received in such manner, the Facility Agent shall promptly pay to each Lender its Relevant Percentage of such payment. 24.4 Application of moneys (a) For the purposes of this Clause 24, if the Facility Agent obtains a partial or total payment of any amount due from the Borrower in respect of any Remittance by virtue of the Borrower being entitled to a set-off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or any security or other payment and actually applies the amount of such payment in or towards satisfaction of amounts due to the Facility Agent in respect of that Remittance, the amount of such partial or total payment so applied will be treated for the purposes of this Clause 24 as if an actual payment of such amount had been received from the Borrower, but without prejudice to the provisions of Clause 25 (Refund of Payments and Further Payments by the Lenders). (b) Any sums received by the Facility Agent for application in accordance with this Clause 24.4 shall be credited to a suspense account and held by the Facility Agent for the benefit of the Lenders pro rata according to their Relevant Percentages hereunder but shall not be treated as having been received by the Facility Agent for the purposes of this Clause 24 unless and until such sums are appropriated by the Facility Agent in or towards payment in respect of that Remittance. 24.5 Reduction in payments Notwithstanding any provisions herein to the contrary, in the event that the Borrower fails to pay in full in respect of any amount due to the Facility Agent pursuant to the relevant Finance Document on the due date relating thereto, for any reasons whatsoever, the obligation of the Facility Agent to make the payments referred to in this Clause 24 to the Lenders shall be reduced pro rata by the shortfall in the payment received by the Facility Agent. 24.6 Order of application (a) All amounts from time to time received or recovered by the Security Agent pursuant to the terms of any Finance Document or in connection with the realisation or enforcement of all or any part of the Transaction Security shall be held by the Security Agent on trust or as agent (as applicable in accordance with Clause 23.2 (Appointment of Security Agent)) for the Finance Parties and transferred promptly to the Facility Agent for application in accordance with paragraph (b). (b) All moneys from time to time received or recovered by the Facility Agent in each case in connection with the realisation or enforcement of the Finance Documents (for itself and/or on behalf of the Lenders) shall be held by the Facility Agent and be applied, (unless instructed to the contrary by the Lenders) in the following order of priority:


 
59 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 (i) in discharging (pro rata) any sums (including reimbursement of any fees, costs and other expenses) owing to the Facility Agent, the Security Agent or any Receiver under the Finance Documents; (ii) in discharging all costs and expenses (including Swap Costs and any interest accruing on any Swap Termination Payments) incurred by any Finance Party in connection with any realisation or enforcement of the Transaction Security taken in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents ; (iii) in payment pro rata to the Lenders and the Swap Provider in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for application towards the discharge of all sums due and payable by the Obligors under the Finance Documents (including any Swap Termination Payments); and (iv) the balance, if any, in payment to the Obligors or any other person so entitled. 24.7 Investment of proceeds Prior to the application of the proceeds of the Finance Documents in accordance with Clause 24.6 (Order of application), the Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) may, at its discretion, after informing and obtaining the consent of all of the Lenders, hold all or part of those proceeds in a suspense or impersonal account(s) in the name of that Administrative Agent with such financial institution (including itself) for so long as such Administrative Agent shall reasonably think fit (any interest or return on any such account earned being credited to the relevant account) pending the application from time to time of those monies at such Administrative Agent’s discretion in accordance with the provisions of this Clause 24. 24.8 Discharge of Borrower’s obligations (a) Any irrevocable and unconditional payment made to the Facility Agent in respect of the Borrower’s obligations by the Borrower under or pursuant to any Finance Document shall be a good discharge to the extent of such payment, and must be applied by the Facility Agent in accordance with Clause 24.6 (Order of application). (b) Subject to Clause 25.1 (Refund of payments) each of the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that payment by the Borrower to the Facility Agent of the Repayment Instalment (or any part thereof) in accordance with the relevant Finance Documents will irrevocably and unconditionally satisfy the Borrower’s obligations to pay such Repayment Instalment (or such amount as is actually paid in accordance with the relevant Finance Documents). 24.9 Sums received by the Borrower If the Borrower receives any sum which, pursuant to any of the Finance Documents, should have been paid to an Administrative Agent, that sum shall be held by the Borrower as agent for and on behalf of the Facility Agent and the Lenders and shall promptly be paid to the Facility Agent for application in accordance with this Clause 24. 25. REFUND OF PAYMENTS AND FURTHER PAYMENTS BY THE LENDERS 25.1 Refund of payments If at any time the Facility Agent becomes obliged to: (a) repay to any liquidator, trustee or other person all or part of an amount previously paid to the Facility Agent by the Borrower (the Relevant Receipt); or


 
60 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 (b) indemnify any liquidator, trustee or other person in respect of a Relevant Receipt, then: (i) the Facility Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the relevant circumstances and of the amount (the Excess Amount) to be repaid by the Facility Agent or, as the case may be, to be paid by way of indemnity by the Facility Agent; (ii) each Lender shall on demand pay to the Facility Agent an amount equal to its Relevant Percentage of the Excess Amount together with an amount equal to its Relevant Percentage of any default interest, costs, charges or expenses that the Facility Agent shall have become liable to pay in respect of such Excess Amount; and (iii) any amount subsequently payable to a Lender pursuant to this Agreement on the basis of the Relevant Receipt shall be adjusted accordingly. 25.2 Insolvency If, in connection with any moratorium, rescheduling, refinancing, suspension of payments or other similar arrangement or circumstance affecting any Remittance: (a) the Remittance (or equivalent amount) is paid in whole or in part but the obligation of the Borrower in respect of the amount paid is substituted by any other payment obligation; and/or (b) any sum is paid into a blocked account or in non-convertible currency in or towards discharge or purported discharge of the Remittance or any part thereof; and/or (c) the Facility Agent is obliged to provide funds in addition to the amount of the Loans, whether to the Borrower or any other person, then: (i) any such payment obligation as is referred to in paragraph (a) shall be treated as between the Lenders and the Facility Agent in the same way as the relevant Remittance as if such obligation had been originally contained in the relevant Finance Document for the purpose of ascertaining the right (if any) of the Lenders to receive subsequent payments under Clause 24 (Payments by the Facility Agent – Limited Recourse); (ii) the Facility Agent will (at the request and cost of a Lender) assign to the Lenders the Relevant Percentage of the Facility Agent’s rights to any such blocked account or non-convertible currency as is referred to in paragraph (b); and /or (iii) in the case of paragraph (c), each Lender shall be obliged to pay to the Facility Agent on demand an amount equal to its Relevant Percentage of such additional funds by way of further deposits in accordance with the provisions, mutatis mutandis, of Clause 6.2 (Lenders’ participation). 25.3 Sharing Among the Finance Parties (a) If any amount owing by the Borrower under the Finance Documents to a Finance Party (the Sharing Finance Party) is discharged by voluntary or involuntary


 
61 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 payment, set-off or any other manner other than through the Facility Agent (in accordance with this Agreement), then: (i) the Sharing Finance Party shall immediately notify the Facility Agent of the amount discharged (the Discharged Amount) and the manner of its receipt or recovery; (ii) the Sharing Finance Party shall pay the Facility Agent an amount equal to the Discharged Amount within five (5) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent; (iii) the Facility Agent shall distribute the Discharged Amount in accordance with this Agreement; and (iv) the amount owed by the Borrower under the Finance Documents shall be adjusted accordingly. (b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a), no Sharing Finance Party shall be obliged to share any Discharged Amount which it receives or recovers pursuant to legal proceedings taken by it to recover any sums owing to it under the Finance Documents with any other Finance Party which had a legal right to, but declined to, either join in such proceedings or commence and diligently pursue separate proceedings to enforce its rights, unless the proceedings instituted by the Sharing Finance Party are instituted by it without prior notice having been given to such other Finance Party and without an opportunity having been given to such other Finance Party to join in such proceedings. (c) If any Discharged Amount subsequently has to be wholly or partly refunded to the Borrower by a Sharing Finance Party which has paid an amount equal to that Discharged Amount to the Facility Agent under paragraph (a), each Finance Party to which any part of that amount was distributed shall, on request from the Sharing Finance Party, repay to the Sharing Finance Party that Finance Party’s proportionate share of the amount which has to be so refunded by the Sharing Finance Party. (d) Each Finance Party shall on request supply to the Facility Agent such information as the Facility Agent may from time to time request for the purpose of this Clause 25.3. 26.

Each Administrative Agent shall be obliged to take such action as the Majority Lenders may direct and any such directions given by the Majority Lenders shall be binding on all the Lenders unless a contrary intention otherwise appears in the Finance Documents, provided that such Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the agreed estimated costs of complying with such directions from the Lenders. (b) Each Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on: (i) any representation, notice or document believed by it to be genuine, correct and appropriately authorised; (ii) any statement made by a director, authorised signatory or employee of any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify; (iii) any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons; and (iv) as to legal matters, written opinions of legal advisers selected or approved by such Administrative Agent.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall oblige an Administrative Agent to carry out: (i) any “know your customer” or other checks in relation to any person; or (ii) any check on the extent to which any transaction contemplated by a Finance Document might be unlawful for any Lender, on behalf of any Lender and each Lender confirms to the Administrative Agents that it is solely responsible for any such checks it is required to carry out and that it may not rely on any statement in relation to such checks made by any Administrative Agent. (e) The Security Agent shall be entitled to accept without enquiry, and shall not be obliged to investigate, any right and title that any Obligor may have to any of the Security Property and shall not be liable for, or bound to require any Obligor to remedy, any defect in its right or title.

RECITALS A. The Vessel. The Guarantor is the registered owner of the liquefied natural gas tanker named “[ �z ]” (hull number [ �z ]) (the “Vessel’). B. The Charter. Pursuant to a time charterparty in relation to the Vessel dated 29 April 2008, and amended and restated on 21 March 2012 and as further amended and/or supplemented from time to time, made between, originally, the Charterer and the Guarantor (‘Charter’), the Charterer has agreed to charter the Vessel from the Guarantor for an initial period of about twenty-five (25) years (subject to termination rights) from delivery thereunder. C. The Finance Documents. Pursuant to a facility agreement dated __December 2016 (the “Facility Agreement”) among (i) Teekay Nakilat (III) Corporation (the “Borrower”); (ii) Qatar National Bank SAQ (as the Security Agent); (iii) Qatar National Bank SAQ (as the “Facility Agent and the Swap Provider”); and (iv) the financial institutions listed in Schedule 7 (The Lenders, Notices, Commitments and Relevant Percentages) to the Facility Agreement or who are from time to time parties thereto (the “Banks”, and together with the Security Agent, the Swap Provider and the Facility Agent, the “Finance Parties”), the Finance Parties have agreed, inter alia, to make a facility available to the Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Finance Documents (as such term is defined in the Facility Agreement). D. Guarantee. Pursuant to a guarantee dated ___December 2016 (the “Guarantee”) the Guarantor has agreed to guarantee the obligations of the ‘Obligors’ (as such term is defined in the Facility Agreement) under the Finance Documents. As part of the security for the obligations of the Guarantor to the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents, the Guarantor has agreed to grant to the Security Agent certain security including (inter alia): (i) an assignment of its rights under the Charter; and (ii) a first priority ship mortgage over the Vessel (the “Mortgage”). E. Condition Precedent. The Finance Documents require the execution, delivery and implementation of this Consent and it is a condition precedent to making the facility available that the Charterer shall have executed and delivered this Consent. It is acknowledged by the Guarantor and the Charterer that the execution of this Consent satisfies the requirement of Clause 29.2 of the Charter. NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the foregoing recitals and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the Charterer, the Security Agent and the Guarantor hereby agree as follows:


 
87 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 ARTICLE 1. – CONSENT TO ASSIGNMENT, ETC. 1.1 Quiet Enjoyment Undertakings. The Security Agent for itself and in its capacity as agent for the Finance Parties irrevocably undertakes that subject to due performance by the Charterer of all its material obligations under the Charter (subject to the expiry of any grace periods), the Security Agent shall, for the duration of the Charter and any extension thereof permitted by the Charter allow the Charterer unfettered use of the Vessel in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Charter. Any breach by the Charterer of its obligations under the Charter shall be subject solely to the rights and remedies afforded to the Guarantor under the Charter. The Security Agent will not exercise any rights it may have against the Vessel or in connection with the Charter if any default under the Finance Documents (an “Event of Default”) has occurred and is continuing, except as provided by Articles 1.3 and 1.7 below. For the avoidance of doubt, where the Vessel is arrested or subjected to forfeiture proceedings (or the same are threatened) reasonable actions on the part of the Security Agent, as advised to and agreed by Charterer, to have the Vessel released from such arrest or proceedings or to prevent or avoid any such arrest or proceedings shall not constitute a breach by the Security Agent of the terms of this Consent. .2 Consent to Assignment. The Charterer (i) consents in all respects to the pledge and assignment to the Security Agent pursuant to the Finance Documents of all the Guarantor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Charter (the “Assigned Interests”) and to the grant of the Mortgage; (ii) acknowledges the right of the Security Agent or any designee of the Security Agent, in the exercise of the Security Agent’s rights and remedies under the Finance Documents, to make all demands, give all notices, take all actions and exercise all rights of the Guarantor under the Charter; and (iii) acknowledges that, without the prior written consent of the Facility Agent, acting on the instructions of the requisite Banks in accordance with the Finance Documents, the Guarantor may not amend the Charter, where such amendment would have a material adverse effect on (A) the ability of any Obligor to perform its obligations under any Finance Document, (B) the validity or enforceability of any Finance Document, or (C) any right or remedy of any Finance Party in respect of a Finance Document. 1.3 Substitute Owner. The Charterer agrees that (i) if the Security Agent shall notify the Charterer that an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and that the Security Agent has elected to exercise the rights and remedies set forth in the Finance Documents, then the Security Agent or its designee (which may be or include a receiver appointed in respect of the Guarantor or a person nominated by the Security Agent or a special purpose company created for the purpose of acquiring the Vessel or a third-party purchaser of the Vessel) which, in any such case, elects to assume the Guarantor’s obligations under the Charter (the “Substitute Owner”) shall be substituted for the Guarantor under the Charter; and (ii) in such event, the Charterer shall (without prejudice to Article 1.4 below) recognise the Substitute Owner and shall continue to perform its obligations under the Charter in favor of the Substitute Owner, provided that (x) the Security Agent shall give the Charterer not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice of the intended transfer and details of the proposed Substitute Owner; (y) in the opinion of the Charterer (acting reasonably and without undue delay), the proposed Substitute Owner (and the third-party vessel manager to be employed by the proposed Substitute Owner, if any) shall have the legal capacity and the financial resources and expertise to own and operate the Vessel and, without limitation, to perform the Guarantor’s obligations under the Charter; and (z) such proposed Substitute Owner shall have undertaken to the Charterer in writing to remedy as soon as practicable any outstanding defaults of the Guarantor under the Charter. The Charterer agrees that it will, at no cost to it, enter into such documents as may be reasonably required by the Security Agent or the Substitute Owner to give effect to any substitution to be effected in accordance with this Article 1.3 and the Security Agent agrees that all documented costs and expenses (including legal costs) reasonably and properly incurred by the Charterer in connection with this Article 1.3 shall be for the account of the Security Agent.


 
88 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 1.4 Preservation of Charterer’s Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Consent, any disposal of the Vessel by the Security Agent to a Substitute Owner in accordance with Article 1.3 shall not prejudice the Charterer’s rights under the Charter accruing before or after the date of such disposal, including, without limitation, any right that the Charterer may then have to terminate the Charter. If the Security Agent exercises its rights under Article 1.3 above to dispose of the Vessel to a Substitute Owner during the term of the Charter, the Security Agent shall comply with the conditions set out in Article 1.1 above and shall (subject to any requirements or restrictions imposed by any applicable law in relation to disposal of the Vessel) dispose of the Vessel expressly subject to the Charter. The Security Agent shall procure that the Substitute Owner (and any other person providing financing to the Substitute Owner for the purposes of the acquisition by the Substitute Owner of the Vessel) issues an undertaking to the Charterer on substantially the same terms as the undertaking granted by the Security Agent in Article 1.1 above. 1.5 Right to Cure. In the event of a default or breach by the Guarantor in the performance of any of its obligations under the Charter, or upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event or condition under the Charter that would immediately or with the passage of any applicable grace period or the giving of notice, or both, enable the Charterer to suspend or terminate the Charter (a “Default”), the Charterer shall not suspend or terminate the Charter until it first gives written notice of such Default to the Security Agent or its designee and affords such party a period of thirty (30) days to cure the circumstances giving rise to such suspension or termination rights. 1.6 No Termination or Assignment. Except to the extent permitted in the Charter, the Charterer agrees that it will not, without the prior written consent of the Security Agent, (i) enter into or agree to any consensual suspension, cancellation, or termination of the Charter, or (ii) assign or otherwise transfer any of its right, title or interest under the Charter save as permitted under the Charter. 1.7 Replacement Agreement. In the event that the Charter is terminated as a result of any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding or other similar proceeding affecting the Guarantor, the Charterer shall, at the option of the Security Agent, enter into a new agreement with the Security Agent or its transferee or nominee (the “Replacement Owner”) on terms substantially the same as the terms of the Charter. In such event, the Security Agent (or, as the case may be, the Replacement Owner) shall comply with the provisions of Article 1.3 (x), (y) and (z) which shall apply for the purposes of this Article 1.7 as if the words “proposed Substitute Owner” have been replaced by the words “proposed Replacement Owner”. 1.8 No Liability. The Charterer acknowledges and agrees that neither the Security Agent nor its designees nor any of the Finance Parties shall have any liability or obligation under the Charter as a result of this Consent, nor shall the Security Agent or its designees be obligated or required to (i) perform any of the Guarantor’s obligations under the Charter, except during any period in which the Security Agent or its designee is a Substitute Owner under the Charter pursuant to Article 1.3 or a Replacement Owner under the Charter pursuant to Article 1.7, in which case the obligations of such Substitute Owner or Replacement Owner shall be no more onerous than those of the Guarantor under the Charter for such period (unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Guarantor and the Security Agent or the Substitute Owner or the Replacement Owner); or (ii) take any action to collect or enforce any claim for payment assigned under the Finance Documents. 1.9 Guarantor’s Undertaking. The Guarantor undertakes to the Charterer that it shall not make any claim against the Vessel and/or the Charterer arising from any transfer or novation of the Charter to the Security Agent or any Substitute Owner or from the entry into a new agreement by the Charterer with a Replacement Owner. The Security Agent acknowledges that delivery by the Guarantor of a notice in writing to the Charterer stating that the Guarantor has no claim, and has no intention of making such a claim, against the Vessel and/or the Charterer which may arise from such transfer or novation or from the entry into a new agreement shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any transfer, novation or new agreement.


 
89 EU-DOCS\16701635.11 1.10 Delivery of Notices. The Charterer shall use its reasonable commercial efforts to deliver to the Security Agent and its designees, concurrently with the delivery thereof to the Guarantor, a copy of any notice of suspension or termination given by the Charterer to the Guarantor under the Charter. 1.11 Delivery of Financial Statements. On or prior to the date hereof, the Charterer has delivered to the Security Agent a copy of its annual audited financial statement (“Financial Statement”) for its most recent fiscal year. Within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the close of each of its fiscal years, the Charterer shall upon request deliver to the Security Agent its annual audited financial statements, prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards (“IAS”). 1.12 Waiver of Immunity. To the extent that the Charterer may now or hereafter have or acquire any immunity (including sovereign immunity) from the jurisdiction of any court or from any legal process with respect to itself or its property, the Charterer hereby waives such immunity with respect to all of its obligations under this Consent and the Charter. 1.13 Registration of Interest. To the extent permitted by applicable law and by the Registrar of Ships for vessels registered on the Commonwealth of The Bahamas Ship Register, the terms of the undertaking contained in Article 1.1 above, shall be included in the Mortgage and shall form part of the terms and conditions of the Mortgage. Upon registration of the Mortgage, the Security Agent agrees to request that the Registrar of Ships for vessels registered on the Commonwealth of The Bahamas Ship Register make a note of such undertaking in the Vessel’s register. ARTICLE 2. – PAYMENTS UNDER THE CHARTER The Charterer shall pay all amounts payable by it to the Guarantor under the Charter in the manner required by the Charter directly into the account specified on Exhibit A hereto, or to such other person or account as shall be specified from time to time by the Security Agent to the Charterer in writing in accordance with Article 4.1. Should the Charterer receive a notice from the Security Agent asking the Charterer to make payments to an alternative account in accordance with this Article 2, the Guarantor shall pay to the Charterer any net increase in payment costs incurred by the Charterer as a result of making such payments into such alternative account.
