if the Prepayment occurs on or before the fourth Interest Payment Date to occur immediately following the Utilisation Date, 2.00 per cent. of the amount (if any) by which the principal amount prepaid, when aggregated with any other prepayment of the Loan which is potentially subject to the Prepayment Fee under this Clause 12.5 and which has been made prior to the Prepayment Date, exceeds the De Minimis Amount; and
(ii)
if the Prepayment or cancellation occurs after the fourth Interest Payment Date to occur immediately following the Utilisation Date but on or before the eighth Interest Payment Date to occur immediately following the Utilisation Date, 1.00 per cent. of that amount (if any) by which the principal amount prepaid, when aggregated with any other prepayment of the Loan which is potentially subject to the Prepayment Fee under this Clause 12.5 and which has been made prior to the Prepayment Date, exceeds the De Minimis Amount.

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
(b)
that Finance Party has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,
the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor 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 Obligor.

not a Qualifying Lender;
(b)
a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or
(c)
a Treaty Lender.

13.7
VAT
(a)
All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (b) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document and such Finance Party is required to account to the relevant Tax Authority for the VAT, that Party must pay to such Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of that VAT (and such Finance Party must promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to that Party).
(b)
If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the Supplier) to any other Finance Party (the Recipient) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the Relevant Party) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Recipient in respect of that consideration):
(i)
(where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant Tax Authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same time as paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. The Recipient must (where this paragraph (i) applies) promptly pay to the Relevant Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Recipient receives from the relevant Tax Authority which the Recipient reasonably determines relates to the VAT payable on that supply; and
(vi)
(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.
(c)
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.
(d)
Any reference in this Clause 13.7 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 (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).

Page 73




(e)
In relation to any supply made by a Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, if reasonably requested by such Finance Party, that Party must promptly provide such Finance Party with details of that Party’s VAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with such Finance Party’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.

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 13.8(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 shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.
(c)
Paragraph 13.8(a) above shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and paragraph 13.8(a)(iii) above shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, 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.
(d)
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 paragraph 13.8(a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments 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.

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.

agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party promptly on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by an Obligor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 19 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

Page 95

(f)
any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security;

This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.
19.7
Appropriations
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, each Finance Party (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:

hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Obligor or on account of any Obligor’s liability under this Clause ‎19.

to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor’s obligations under the Finance Documents;

(f)
to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.
If an Obligor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Agent or as the Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause ‎33 (Payment mechanics).
19.9
Release of Guarantor’s right of contribution
If any Guarantor (a Retiring Guarantor) ceases to be a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of that Retiring Guarantor then on the date such Retiring Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor:

(b)
each other Obligor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents to take the benefit (in whole or

Page 97




in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Guarantor.

If the Agent wishes to resign because (acting reasonably) it has concluded that it is no longer appropriate for it to remain as agent and the Agent is entitled to appoint a successor Agent under paragraph (c) above, the Agent may (if it concludes (acting reasonably) that it is necessary to do so in order to persuade the proposed successor Agent to become a party to this Agreement as Agent) agree with the proposed successor Agent amendments to this Clause 29 consistent with then current market practice for the appointment and protection of corporate trustees together with any reasonable amendments to the agency fee payable under this Agreement which are consistent with the successor Agent’s normal fee rates and those amendments will bind the Parties.
(e)
The retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall, make available to the successor Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent or Security Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) under the Finance Documents.

(f)
The resignation notice of the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall only take effect upon:
(i)
the appointment of a successor; and
(ii)
(in the case of the Security Agent) the transfer of the Security Property to that successor.
(g)
Upon the appointment of a successor, the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable), shall be discharged from any further obligation in respect of the Finance Documents (other than its obligations under paragraph (b) of Clause 29.28 (Winding up of trust), and (e) above) but shall remain entitled to the benefit of Clause 15.3 (Indemnity to the Agent), Clause 15.4 (Indemnity to the Security Agent) and this Clause 29 (and any fees for the account of the retiring Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall cease to accrue from (and shall be payable on) that date).

In this event, the Agent or Security Agent (as applicable) shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above.
(i)
The Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (b) above (and, to the extent applicable, shall use reasonable endeavours to appoint a successor Agent pursuant to paragraph (c)) if on or after the date which is three Months before the earliest FATCA Application Date relating to any payment to the Agent under the Finance Documents, either:

(ii)
the information supplied by the Agent pursuant to Clause 13.8 (FATCA Information) indicates that the Agent will not be (or will have ceased to be) a FATCA Exempt Party on or after that FATCA Application Date; or

(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

Page 184




(b)
Payment shall be made to such account in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in a principal financial centre in such Participating Member State or London, as specified by the Agent) and with such bank as the Agent, in each case, specifies.

Distributions by the Agent
Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 33.3‎ (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause ‎33.4 (Clawback and pre-funding) 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 Business Days’ notice with a bank specified by that Party in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London, as specified by that Party).
33.3
Distributions to an Obligor

33.4
Clawback and pre-funding
(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)
Unless paragraph (c) below applies, 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.
(c)
If the Agent has notified the Lenders that it is willing to make available amounts for the account of a Borrower before receiving funds from the Lenders then if and to the extent that the Agent does so but it proves to be the case that it does not then receive funds from a Lender in respect of a sum which it paid to a Borrower:
(i)
the Agent shall notify the Borrower of that Lender’s identity and the Borrower to whom that sum was made available shall on demand refund it to the Agent; and

Page 185




(ii)
the Lender by whom those funds should have been made available or, if that Lender fails to do so, the Borrower to whom that sum was made available, shall on demand pay to the Agent the amount (as certified by the Agent) which will indemnify the Agent against any funding cost incurred by it as a result of paying out that sum before receiving those funds from that Lender.
33.5
Impaired Agent
(a)

pay that amount direct to the required recipient(s); or
(ii)
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 an Acceptable Bank 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.
(b)
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.
(c)
A Party which has made a payment in accordance with this Clause 33.5 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.

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

(i)
first, in or towards payment pro rata of any unpaid amount owing to the Agent, the Security Agent, any Receiver or any Delegate under the Finance Documents;
(ii)
secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest and fees due but unpaid to the Lenders under this Agreement;

the Borrower or the Agent (at the request of the Borrower) has requested the Lenders to give a consent in relation to, or to agree to a waiver or amendment of, any provisions of the Finance Documents;
(ii)
the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the approval of all the Lenders; and

then any Lender who does not and continues not to consent or agree to such waiver or amendment shall be deemed a Non-Consenting Lender.

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 Facility will be reduced by the amount of its Available Commitments under the relevant Facility and, to the extent that that reduction results in that Defaulting Lender's Total Commitments being zero, that Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a Lender for the purposes of paragraphs (i) and (ii) above.

Schedule 14
AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES
(A)
Scope of Transaction Security
The Transaction Security will consist of the following:
(i)
first ranking mortgages over each Property (other than any Property located in Scotland);
(ii)
first ranking security over the shares of the Obligors provided that in any event first ranking security shall be provided over the shares of Obligor which owns any Properties;
(iii)
first ranking Scots law standard securities over each Property located in Scotland;
(iv)
Scots law assignations in security of rent derived from each Property located in Scotland;
(v)
first ranking assignment of rights under the Lease Documents (if permitted under the terms and subject to paragraph 1(b)(iii) above);
(vi)
first ranking security over each Account;
(vii)    first ranking assignment of rights under the Insurances; and
(ix)    first ranking assignment of rights under the Third Party Credit Support.
In relation to any share security, the relevant surety shall be permitted to exercise voting rights in relation to the shares prior to an Acceleration Event (as defined below), however in a manner that would not be prejudicial to the validity of the security created by the share security or the value of the shares secured. Each surety shall be entitled to retain all dividends and distributions (if made in compliance with the Finance Documents) made prior to an Acceleration Event (as defined below).
(B)
Considerations
In determining what Security will be provided in support of the Facility the following matters will be taken into account. Security shall not be created or perfected to the extent that it would:
(a)
result in any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference or thin capitalisation laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any applicable jurisdiction;
(b)
result in a significant risk to the officers of the relevant grantor of Security of contravention of their fiduciary duties and/or of civil or criminal liability; or

Page 233




(c)
result in costs that, in the opinion of the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Lenders), are disproportionate to the benefit to be obtained by the beneficiaries of that Security.
For the avoidance of doubt, in these Agreed Security Principles, cost includes, but is not limited to, income tax cost, registration taxes payable on the creation or enforcement or for the continuance of any Security, stamp duties, out-of-pocket expenses, and other fees and expenses directly incurred by the relevant grantor of Security or any of its direct or indirect owners, subsidiaries or Affiliates.
(C)
Obligations to be Secured
1.
Subject to (B) (Considerations) and to paragraph 2 below, the obligations to be secured are the Secured Liabilities. The Security is to be granted in favour of the Security Agent on behalf of each Lender from time to time, and the Agent and the Arrangers.
2.
The Secured Liabilities will be limited in accordance with applicable market practice:
2.1
to avoid any breach of corporate benefit, financial assistance, fraudulent preference, thin capitalisation rules or the laws or regulations (or analogous restrictions) of any applicable jurisdiction; and
2.2
to avoid any risk to officers of the relevant member of the Group that is granting Transaction Security of contravention of their fiduciary duties and/or civil or criminal or personal liability.
(D)
General
Where appropriate, defined terms in the Security Documents should mirror those in this Agreement. The parties to this Agreement agree to negotiate the form of each Security Document in good faith.
The Security shall, to the extent possible under local law, be enforceable on the occurrence of an Event of Default in respect of which notice has been served to the Borrower in accordance with Clause 24.19 (Acceleration) (an Acceleration Event).
(E)
Perfection of Security
If required by local law to perfect the Security and if possible without disrupting operation of any accounts (in respect of Security over Accounts) or existing commercial relationships, notice of the Security will be served on the relevant account bank (or counterparty or insurance provider, as applicable) within five Business Days of the Security being granted and the relevant Guarantor shall use its reasonable endeavours to obtain an acknowledgement of that notice within 20 Business Days of service. If the Guarantor has used its reasonable endeavours but has not been able to obtain acknowledgement its obligation to obtain acknowledgement shall cease on the expiry of that 20 Business Day period.

Page 234




(F)
Other terms of Security Documents
(a)
Representations and undertakings shall only be included in each Security Document to the extent necessary under local law to confirm any registration or perfection of the Security and shall not be repeated.
(b)
The provisions of each Security Document will not be unduly burdensome on the Guarantor or interfere unreasonably with the operation of its business or have a material adverse effect on the commercial reputation of the Guarantor and will be limited to those required to create effective Security and not impose additional commercial obligations. Disposals of assets and the existence and creation of Security over assets will be permitted to the extent permitted under this Agreement. The Security Agent shall release any guarantees or Security in the event that such release is required to permit a disposal which is permitted under this Agreement or to which the Majority Lenders have consented in accordance with this Agreement.
(c)
Information, such as lists of assets, will be provided if and, only to the extent, required by local law to be provided to perfect or register the security and, that this information can be provided without breaching confidentiality requirements or damaging business relationships or commercial reputation and, unless required to be provided by local law more frequently, will be provided annually.
(d)
The Lenders shall only be able to exercise a power of attorney following the occurrence of an Acceleration Event or if the relevant Guarantor has failed to comply with a further assurance or perfection obligation within 10 Business Days of being notified of that failure (with a copy of that notice being sent to the Borrower) and being requested to comply.
(e)
Subject to the other provisions of these Agreed Security Principles, security will where possible and practical automatically create Security over future assets of the same type as those already secured.
(f)
In the Security Documents there will be no repetition or extension of clauses set out in this Agreement such as those relating to notices, cost and expenses, indemnities, tax gross up, distribution of proceeds and release of Security other than if expressly required by local law to perfect the security or make it enforceable or to facilitate the admissibility of a Security Document in court.
(g)
Nothing in this Part F shall prohibit any provision of any new Security Document which is equivalent to, or on substantially the same terms as, any term of any existing Security Document.
