(b) The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly.  Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facility Agent on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender.  If the Facility Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower.

(ii) any Tax imposed on and calculated by reference to the net income of the Facility Office of such Finance Party actually received or receivable by such Finance Party (but, for the avoidance of doubt, not including any sum deemed for purposes of Tax to be received or receivable by such Finance Party but not actually receivable) by the jurisdiction in which its Facility Office is located; or

(iii) any payment or liability to the extent relating to FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.

(b) Where a Finance Document requires any Party to reimburse a Finance Party for any costs or expenses, that Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify that Finance Party against all Indirect Tax incurred by that Finance Party in respect of the costs or expenses to the extent that such Finance Party reasonably determines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment in respect of the Indirect Tax.

12.7 FATCA Deduction

(a) Each Party may make any FATCA Deduction it is required to make by FATCA, and any payment required in connection with that FATCA Deduction, and no Party shall be required to increase any payment in respect of which it makes such a FATCA Deduction or otherwise compensate the recipient of the payment for that FATCA Deduction.

(c) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three (3) Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the "Sharing Payment") equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 28.5 (Partial payments).

27.2 Redistribution of payments

(a) On a distribution by the Facility Agent under Clause 27.2 (Redistribution of payments) of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from an Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and, the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the recovered amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

97

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

(a) each Finance Party which has received a share of the relevant Sharing Payment pursuant to Clause 27.2 (Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent for 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); and

98

28. PAYMENT MECHANICS

28.1 Payments to the Facility Agent

(a) On each date on which an Obligor or a Lender is required to make a payment under a Finance Document, that Obligor or Lender shall make the same available to the Facility Agent (unless a contrary indication appears in a Finance Document) for value on the due date at the time and in such funds specified by the Facility Agent as being customary at the time for settlement of transactions in the relevant currency in the place of payment.

(c) All payments made by any Obligor to the Facility Agent in accordance with paragraphs (a) and (b) above in respect of any Finance Document (other than any Security Document) are made to the Facility Agent for and on behalf of each Finance Party to whom the relevant amount is owing.  The payment of any such amount to the Facility Agent shall not in any way affect or prejudice the separate and independent nature of the debt owing to each such Finance Party, which may be enforced individually by each such Finance Party in the event that all or part of the debt remains unpaid when due.

28.2 Distributions by the Facility Agent

(a) Each payment received by the Facility Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 28.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 28.4 (Clawback) be made available by the Facility 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 Facility Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days' notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency.

(b) The Facility Agent shall distribute payments received by it in relation to all or any part of a Loan to the Lenders indicated in the records of the Facility Agent as being so entitled on that date provided that the Facility Agent is authorised to distribute payments to be made on the date on which any transfer becomes effective pursuant to Clause 23 (Changes to the Lenders) to the Lenders so entitled immediately before such transfer took place regardless of the period to which such sums relate.

(c) If the Security Agent receives or records any amount from or in respect of any Obligor under or in connection with any Finance Document, it shall promptly notify the Facility Agent, and the Facility Agent may instruct the Security Agent to make available such amount, subject to Clause 28.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 28.4 (Clawback), as soon as practicable after receipt and recovery to the Party entitled to receive payment in accordance with this Agreement (or in case of a Lender, for the account of its Facility Office), to such account as that Party may notify to the Facility Agent by not less than five (5) Business Days' notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of the currency of such payment.  The Security Agent shall be entitled to rely on any instructions of the Facility Agent in making any distribution or effecting any payment under any Finance Document.

28.4 Clawback

(a) Where a sum is to be paid to a Transaction Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party, that Transaction 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) If a Transaction Agent pays an amount to another Party and it proves to be such case that the Transaction 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 such Transaction Agent shall on demand refund the same to such Transaction Agent together with interest on that amount from the date of payment to the date of receipt by such Transaction Agent, calculated by such Transaction Agent to reflect its cost of funds.

28.5 Partial payments

(ii) secondly, in or towards payment pro rata of any accrued interest, fee (other than as provided in (i) above) or commission due but unpaid under this Agreement;

29. SET-OFF

A Finance Party may set off any matured obligation due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents (to the extent beneficially owned by that Finance Party) against any matured obligation owed by that Finance Party to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation.  If the obligations are in different currencies, the Finance Party may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.
