2. Purpose

The Facility will be available for (i) refinancing the existing bilateral letters of credit facility dated December 28^th 2007 (the “Existing Facility”) between the Applicant and the Bank which is in existence on the signing date of this Facility Letter and for (ii) general corporate purposes of the Applicant. The Applicant acknowledges and agrees that the Bank shall not be obliged to concern itself with the application of amounts raised under this Facility Letter.

Being understood that this termination does not affect the Applicant’s reimbursement obligations as stated in the Article 3 of the Existing Facility.

For avoidance of doubt:
