Clause 13.9 above 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

equal to the amount of the VAT.

(b)

(where the Recipient is the person required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demand from the Recipient, pay to the Recipient an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Recipient reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority in respect of that VAT.

13.17

Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Finance Party for any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Finance Party for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

13.18

Any reference in clauses 13.15 to 13.17 to any Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time.

Payments to Finance Parties

33.1	If a Finance Party (a Recovering Finance Party) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with clause 34 (Payment mechanics) (a Recovered Amount) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

(a)

the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery, to the Agent;

(b)

the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with clause 34 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

(c)

the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) 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, in accordance with clauses 34.12 to 34.14 (Partial payments).

Redistribution of payments

33.2

The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the Sharing Finance Parties) in accordance with clauses 34.12 to 34.14 (Partial payments) towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

Recovering Finance Party's rights

33.3

On a distribution by the Agent under clause 33.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

Reversal of redistribution

33.4	If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party 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 the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay) (the Redistributed Amount); and

(b)

as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

Exceptions

33.5	This clause 33 (Sharing among the Finance Parties) 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 relevant Obligor.

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

(a)

it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

(b)

that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

Administration

34	Payment mechanics

Payments to the Agent

34.1

On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that Obligor or Lender 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 of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

34.2	Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency with such bank as the Agent specifies.

Distributions by the Agent

34.3

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to clause 34.4 (Distributions to an Obligor) and clauses 34.5 and 34.6 (Clawback) be made available by the Agent as soon as practicable after receipt 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 (5) Business Days' notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency.

Distributions to an Obligor

34.4

The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with clause 35 (Set-off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

Clawback

34.5

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.

34.6	If 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.

Impaired Agent

34.7	If, at any time, the Agent becomes an Impaired Agent, an Obligor or a Lender which is required to make a payment under the Finance Documents to the Agent in accordance with clause 34.1 (Payments to the Agent) may instead either:

(a)

pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s); or

(b)

if in its absolute discretion it considers that it is not reasonably practicable to pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s), pay that amount or the relevant part of that amount to an interest-bearing account held with a bank acceptable to the Majority Lenders and in relation to which no Insolvency Event has occurred and is continuing, in the name of the Obligor or the Lender making the payment (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).

In each case such payments must be made on the due date for payment under the Finance Documents.

34.8	All interest accrued on the amount standing to the credit of the trust account shall be for the benefit of the Recipient Party or the Recipient Parties pro rata to their respective entitlements.

34.9	A Party which has made a payment in accordance with clause 34.7 shall be discharged of the relevant payment obligation under the Finance Documents and shall not take any credit risk with respect to the amounts standing to the credit of the trust account.

34.10

Promptly upon the appointment of a successor Agent in accordance with clause 27.39 (Replacement of the Agent), each Paying Party shall (other than to the extent that that Party has given an instruction pursuant to clause 34.11 below) give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the amount (together with any accrued interest) to the successor Agent for distribution to the relevant Recipient Party or Recipient Parties in accordance with clause 34.3 (Distributions by the Agent).

34.11

A Paying Party shall, promptly upon request by a Recipient Party and to the extent:

(a)

that it has not given an instruction pursuant to clause 34.10 above; and

(b)

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

100

give all requisite instructions to the bank with whom the trust account is held to transfer the relevant amount (together with any accrued interest) to that Recipient Party.

Partial payments

34.12

If the Agent receives a payment that is insufficient to discharge all the amounts then due and payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:

(a)

first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid fees, costs and expenses of the Agent under the Finance Documents;

(b)

secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fee or commission due but unpaid under this Agreement;

34.14

Clauses 34.12 and 34.13 above will override any appropriation made by an Obligor.

No set-off by Obligors

34.15

All payments to be made by an Obligor under the Finance Documents shall be calculated and be made without (and free and clear of any deduction for) set-off or counterclaim.

During any extension of the due date for payment of any principal or Unpaid Sum under this Agreement interest is payable on the principal or Unpaid Sum at the rate payable on the original due date.

101

Any amount expressed to be payable in a currency other than Dollars shall be paid in that other currency.

A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation.

	E x 0.01	per cent per annum.
	300	per cent per annum.

Where:

5	For the purposes of this schedule:

6	The resulting figures will be rounded to four decimal places.

7	Any determination by the Bank in accordance with this schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost or any amount payable to it will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.

The Bank may from time to time, after consultation with the Borrower, determine and notify the Borrower of any amendments which need to be made to this schedule to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrower.
