(1%) which is cash payable); and”. 9. The amendments and waivers to be made to the Facility Agreement by this letter shall take effect on and from the date (the “Effective Date”) on which the Agent notifies the Borrower that it has received the following documents and evidence in form and substance satisfactory to it: (a) a duly executed copy of this letter countersigned by each of the Obligors and Intermediate HoldCo acknowledging the terms of this letter; (b) to provide evidence of receipt (in cash in full) by the Ultimate Parent (or any other member of the Ultimate Parent Group) of the proceeds of an equity offering in an amount of not less than US$30,000,000 (less underwriting fees and costs of not more than 5% of the gross proceeds raised); and (c) true and accurate copies of (in each case, duly executed) the amendment agreements or deeds entered into pursuant to which the Bank Finance Parties have agreed, under each of the Bank Finance Facilities respectively, to amend the Book Equity Covenant and to grant the same or similar consents on substantially the same terms as this letter (the “Other Finance Facilities Consents”). 10. Following the Effective Date, the Borrower shall provide the Agent with copies of the amended Shipyard Finance Facilities implementing the terms of the PPL Term Sheet and Keppel Term Sheet respectively by no later than 30 June 2022. Confirmations and undertakings 11. As and with effect from the Effective Date, the Obligors confirm that the aggregate payments of $12,000,000 due to PPL Shipyard Pte. Ltd. and the aggregate payments of $12,000,000 due to Keppel FELS Limited (or its affiliates) in each case payable during 2022 shall no longer be applicable as Permitted Payments for the purposes of the Facility Agreement unless and until the conditions to the amendments to the PPL Shipyard Finance Facility and/or the Keppel Shipyard Finance Facility are not met and the parties thereto revert to the terms and conditions of such Shipyard Finance Facilities in force prior to the Implementation Offering, which shall continue to remain in full force and effect. 12. In respect of the PPL Term Sheet and the Keppel Term Sheet, the Ultimate Parent undertakes to promptly provide written notice to the Agent in the event that: (a) the conditions precedent to the amendments to the PPL Shipyard Finance Facility and/or the Keppel Shipyard Finance Facility contemplated by the PPL Term Sheet and/or the Keppel Term Sheet are not expected to be satisfied or waived; or (b) the amendments contemplated by the PPL Term Sheet and/or the Keppel Term Sheet are not expected to be (or are not) implemented by 30 June 2022. 13. The Obligors and Intermediate Holdco confirm that in the event that: (a) the amendments to the respective Shipyard Finance Facilities revert to the terms in force prior to the Implementation Offering as a result of the reversion provision in the PPL Term Sheet and/or the Keppel Term Sheet; or (b) the terms of the PPL Term Sheet and/or the Keppel Term Sheet are amended, waived or otherwise modified in any respect (either prior to the Implementation Offering or thereafter (having been reflected in the relevant documentation with Keppel and/or


 
PPL)) and not otherwise approved in writing by the Agent (on the instructions of the Majority Lenders), then from such time, the amendments to the Facility Agreement as contemplated herein and the January 2022 Request shall cease to apply to any terms or actions agreed to be taken from the time of such reversion, amendment, waiver or modification (as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, the Shipyard Finance Facilities (as amended in accordance with the terms of the PPL Term Sheet and the Keppel Term Sheet respectively) will each contain a provision which provides that, if a refinancing of certain other Group obligations fails to be completed by 30 June 2022, the Shipyard Finance Facilities (as amended in accordance with the terms of the PPL Term Sheet and the Keppel Term Sheet respectively) will revert to their respective original terms and conditions and the provisions requiring that an aggregate of 34.3% of the net proceeds of other future equity offerings by the Ultimate Parent be paid to the creditors under those facilities (as contemplated by paragraphs 7(a)(vii) and 7(a)(vii) above) will cease to apply.
