22.

(a)
Provided that any upsizing of the G Facility permitted under this paragraph 22 will not breach any term of the Credit Agreement, the G Facility may be upsized by any amount, by the signing of one or more further Additional G Facility Accession Deeds, that specify (along with the other terms specified therein) Virgin Media Investment Holdings Limited as the sole Borrower and which specify Additional G Facility Commitments denominated in euros, to be drawn in euros, with the same Final Maturity Date and Margin as specified in this Additional G Facility Accession Deed (provided that the Additional Facility Availability Period in respect of any such upsized amount shall be specified in such further Additional Facility G Accession Deeds).

(b)
For the purposes of this paragraph 22 (unless otherwise specified), references to Additional G Facility Lender and G Facility Advances shall include Lenders and Advances made under any such further and previous Additional G Facility Accession Deed.

23.
On each Utilisation Date in respect of the G Facility, each of the Company and the Borrower, on its own behalf, the Company only in respect of Clause 21.9 (Accounts) of the Credit Agreement, and the Company, on behalf of each Obligor, confirms that each Repeating Representation is true and correct in all material respects as if made at each Utilisation Date in respect of the G Facility with reference to the facts and circumstances then existing, and as if each reference to the Relevant Finance Documents includes a reference to this Additional G Facility Accession Deed.
