(y) a Default Notice may not be served by a Senior Agent or the Representative in reliance on a particular Senior Default more than 45 days after the relevant Senior Agent, or the Representative (as the case may be), has received notice in writing from any other party hereto specifying the event of default constituting that Senior Default and specifying that it constitutes a Bank Group Default, a Target Group Default or a Designated Senior Default; and

(z) a Default Notice may not be issued by a Senior Agent or the Representative less than 360 days after the service of a prior Default Notice by that Senior Agent or the Representative relating to a Senior Default which was existing at the time of such prior Default Notice, unless such Senior Default has been remedied or is no longer continuing for at least 180 days prior to the service of the proposed new Default Notice.

4.3 Senior Default

Notwithstanding the terms of the Finance Documents, it is agreed that prior to the Senior Discharge Date, unless otherwise agreed by the Majority Senior Creditors, after the service of a notice under Clause 27.17 (Acceleration) of the Senior Facilities Agreement (or the corresponding provision of the Refinancing Facilities Agreement) following the occurrence of a Bank Group Default or a notice under the corresponding provision of the Target Group Finance Documents following the occurrence of a Target Group Default:

(a) all amounts payable under the Finance Documents by the Issuer or an Obligor;

(b) all proceeds of enforcement of the Security Documents granted by the Issuer or an Obligor; and

Liabilities or the Subordinated Liabilities or any part thereof by any Obligor or the Issuer or its estate or any liquidator, receiver or like officer consequent upon its winding-up,

shall forthwith be paid or delivered direct to the Bank Group Security Trustee (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) for the benefit of the Secured Creditors subject, in the case of the High Yield Trustee, to Clause 20 (High Yield Trustee) for application pursuant to and in accordance with Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds).

5. TURNOVER

5.1 Turnover

Subject, in the case of the High Yield Trustee, to Clause 20 (High Yield Trustee), if at any time prior to the Senior Discharge Date:

(a) any Subordinated Creditor receives in respect or on account of, any Subordinated Liabilities a payment or distribution (in cash or in kind) from any Obligor which is not permitted by Clause 4 (Permitted Payments) and which is not made in accordance with the provisions of Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds); or

(b) any Obligor or its estate or any liquidator, receiver or like officer consequent upon its winding-up makes any payment or distribution (in cash or in kind) in respect or on account of any of the Subordinated Liabilities which is not permitted by Clause 4 (Permitted Payments) or which is not made in accordance with the provisions of Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds),

the receiving Creditor or each High Yield Trustee will forthwith pay (after deducting from the amount received or recovered the costs, liabilities and expenses (if any) incurred by such High Yield Trustee or the relevant Creditor in recovering such amount), all such amounts to the Bank Group Security Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) which will be held on trust for application in accordance with Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds) (and pending such payment to the relevant Security Trustee, the receiving Creditor or such High Yield Trustee, as the case may be, will hold the amount received on trust for the purposes of this Deed).

5.2 Subrogation

(a) If the Senior Liabilities are wholly or partially paid out of any proceeds received in respect or on account of the Subordinated Liabilities owing to one or more of the Subordinated Creditors, such Subordinated Creditor shall to that extent be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties in respect of the Senior Liabilities so paid, including all security for those Senior Liabilities, but no Subordinated Creditor may exercise those subrogation rights or receive any payments in respect thereof on or before the Senior Discharge Date without the prior written consent of the Senior Agents and the Security Trustees.

(b) To the extent that any subrogation contemplated in paragraph (a) above does not occur for any reason, as between the Obligors and the Subordinated Creditors, either the Subordinated Liabilities will be deemed not to have been reduced or discharged to

the extent of any payment or distribution to the Bank Group Security Trustee (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) for the benefit of the Secured Creditors under Clause 5.1 (Turnover) or the Obligors will fully indemnify each of the Subordinated Creditors upon demand for the amount of any payment or distribution to the relevant Security Trustee under Clause 5.1 (Turnover).

(c) The Obligors hereby agree that they shall not exercise any rights of subrogation in relation to any claim they may have pursuant to this Clause 5.2, under applicable law or otherwise until after the Final Discharge Date shall have occurred.

5.3 Failure of Trusts

Subject, in the case of each High Yield Trustee, to Clause 20 (High Yield Trustee), if for any reason any trust which is to arise (pending payment of any amount to the Bank Group Security Trustee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) pursuant to Clause 5.1 (Turnover), Clause 6.2 (Permitted Enforcement) or Clause 6.11 (Preservation of Liabilities) of this Deed fails or for any reason cannot be given effect to (including without limitation, by reason of the Laws of any jurisdiction in which any Security Property may be situate), the relevant Creditor will pay to the Bank Group Security Trustee (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) and such Security Trustee shall hold for and to the order of the Secured Creditors for application in accordance with Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds), an amount equal to the amount (or as the case may be transfer value of the relevant property) intended to be so held on trust.

6.2 Permitted Enforcement

Notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 6.1 (Restrictions on Enforcement) or any other Clause of this Deed, if a default under the High Yield Indenture or a Hedging Agreement or an Intergroup Default (in each case in this Clause, a “relevant Default”) has occurred and is continuing unremedied and unwaived, any High Yield Trustee or the Intergroup Creditor may take any action which it is entitled to take with respect to such relevant Default in relation to the Subordinated Liabilities, including without limitation as to the acceleration or closing out of any such Subordinated Liabilities and any Hedge Counterparty may take any action which it is entitled to take with respect to any such relevant Default relating to the Hedging Liabilities, including without limitation, the acceleration or closing out of any such Hedging Liabilities, which would otherwise be prohibited by this Deed if:

(a)	(i)	in the case of any Hedge Counterparty, the Bank Group Discharge Date has occurred or, in the case of any High Yield Trustee or the Intergroup Creditor, the Senior Discharge Date has occurred; or

	(ii)	an Insolvency Event has occurred; or

	(iii)	any Senior Liabilities have been declared to be due and payable (x) under Clause 27.17 (Acceleration) or due or payable on demand under Clause 27.18 (Repayment on Demand) of the Senior Facilities Agreement or any corresponding provision of the Refinancing Facilities Agreement) or (y) under any corresponding provisions of the Target Group Finance Documents; or

(iii)

at the end of the Standstill Period, the relevant Default is continuing unremedied or unwaived,

provided always that any amounts received in respect of Subordinated Liabilities or Hedging Liabilities as a result of action permitted to be taken under this Clause 6.2 shall promptly upon receipt be paid by the relevant Creditor (or, subject to Clause 20 (High Yield Trustee) any High Yield Trustee on behalf of the High Yield Noteholders for which it acts as trustee) to the Bank Group Security Trustee (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee) for the benefit of the Secured Creditors to hold upon trust for application in accordance with Clause 6.4 (Application of Proceeds) (and pending such payment to the Bank Group Security Trustee (or, after the Bank Group Discharge Date, the Target Group Security Trustee), such Creditor will save as specified otherwise hold the amount received on trust for the purposes of this Deed).

Neither the Bank Group Security Trustee, the Target Group Security Trustee, the Senior Agents nor any other Secured Creditor shall be responsible to the High Yield Noteholders or the Intergroup Creditor for any failure to enforce or to maximise the proceeds of any enforcement, and may cease any such enforcement at any time. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this Clause 6 shall not require the release by the Ultimate Parent, any other holding company of the Issuer or the Issuer from any of their obligations and/or liabilities under the High Yield Indenture,

(b) Subject to the terms of the Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement, if in connection with any Enforcement Action specified in Clause 6.5 (Release of Security on Enforcement):

20.8 Notices of Representative

Each High Yield Trustee shall at all times be entitled to and may rely on any notice, consent or certificate given or granted by a Senior Agent, Security Trustee or Representative pursuant to the terms of this Deed without being under any obligation to enquire or otherwise determine whether any such notice, consent or certificate has been given or granted by such Senior Agent, Security Trustee or Representative properly acting as directed by the appropriate instructing group.

Nothing contained herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by Law.

23.4 Proceedings in Other Jurisdictions

The submissions to the jurisdiction of the courts of England shall not (and shall not be construed so as to) limit the right of the Finance Parties or the High Yield Trustee or any of them to take Proceedings against any of the Obligors or Subordinated Creditors in any other court of competent jurisdiction nor shall the taking of Proceedings in any one or more jurisdictions preclude the taking of Proceedings in any other jurisdiction (whether concurrently or not) if and to the extent permitted by applicable Law.
