(B) The Issuer will apply the proceeds of the issue of the Notes for the sole purpose of financing the Loan subject to and on the terms of the Loan Agreement.

(C) Subject always to the provisions hereof and to sub-clause (D) of this Clause, as and when the Notes or any of them become due to be redeemed, repurchased or repaid in accordance with these presents, the Issuer shall (subject to the receipt of the relevant funds from the Borrower) pay or procure to be paid to or to the order of the Trustee in dollars in same day freely transferable funds amounts corresponding to principal and premium, if any, in respect of the Notes becoming due for redemption, repurchase or repayment on that date equivalent to principal and premium, if any, actually received (and not required to be repaid) under the Loan Agreement and shall (subject to the provisions hereof and to sub-clause (D) as aforesaid) until all such payments (as well after as before any judgment or other order of any court of competent jurisdiction) are duly made pay or procure to be paid to or to the order of the Trustee as aforesaid on the dates and in the manner provided for in the Conditions amounts corresponding to interest in respect of the Notes (including any default interest under Condition 4(b)) equivalent to interest actually received under the Loan Agreement pro rata according to the principal amount of each Note so redeemed, repurchased or repaid and on the date of, and in the currency of, and subject to the conditions attaching to, the equivalent

6

payment under the Loan Agreement, as provided in the Conditions PROVIDED THAT (i) every payment of an amount corresponding to principal, premium, if any, or interest in respect of Notes made to, or to the order of, the Trustee or to the Principal Paying Agent in each case pursuant to Clause 11(A) shall be in satisfaction pro tanto of the relevant covenant by the Issuer contained in this Clause and (ii) in the case of any payment made after the due date, payment shall be deemed not to have been made until the full amount due has been received by the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent.

A Noteholder will be recognised by the Issuer, the Trustee and each Agent as entitled to its Note free from any equity, set-off or counterclaim on the part of the Issuer against the original or any intermediate Noteholder. Payment as described in Condition 6 shall operate as a good discharge of the Issuer as against such Noteholder and all previous holders of such Note. All persons are required by the Issuer and the Trustee to act accordingly and the holder for the time being of each Note shall act accordingly.

(D) The obligations of the Issuer under sub-clause (C) of this Clause are solely to make payments of amounts in aggregate equivalent to each sum actually received by or for the account of the Issuer from the Borrower in respect of principal, premium, if any, or, as the case may be, interest pursuant to the Loan Agreement the right to receive which is, inter alia, being charged to the Trustee by virtue of the Charge as security for the Issuer’s payment obligations under these presents. Noteholders must therefore rely solely and exclusively upon the covenant to pay under the Loan Agreement and the credit and financial standing of the Borrower.

(E) At any time after any Relevant Event shall have occurred, the Trustee may:

(a) by notice in writing to the Issuer, the Principal Paying Agent, any other Paying Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer Agents require any such Agent:

(i) to act thereafter, until otherwise instructed by the Trustee, as the Principal Paying Agent, the Paying Agents, the Registrar and the Transfer Agents, respectively, of the Trustee mutatis mutandis on the terms provided in the Agency Agreement (save that the Trustee’s liability under any provisions thereof for the indemnification, remuneration and payment of out-of-pocket expenses of each such Agent shall be limited to the amounts for the time being held by the Trustee on the trusts of these presents and available to the Trustee for such purpose) and thereafter to hold all Note Certificates and all sums, documents and records held by them in respect of the Notes on behalf of the Trustee; or

(ii) to deliver up all Note Certificates and all sums, documents and records held by them in respect of the Notes to the Trustee or as the Trustee shall direct in such notice provided that such notice shall be deemed not to apply to any documents or records which the relevant Agent is obliged not to release by any law or regulation; and

7

(b) by notice in writing to the Issuer and the Principal Paying Agent require the Issuer to make all subsequent payments in respect of the Notes to or to the order of the Trustee and not to the Account or the Principal Paying Agent and with effect from the receipt of any such notice to the Issuer and the Principal Paying Agent and until such notice is withdrawn, proviso (i) to sub-clause (C) of this Clause insofar as it relates to the Principal Paying Agent will cease to have effect.

(F) Unless previously prepaid or repaid, the Borrower will be required to repay the Loan (together with any outstanding interest or additional amounts) on the Repayment Date and, subject to such repayment and to any amounts repaid on such date in respect of the Reserved Rights, all the Notes then outstanding will on that date be redeemed or repaid by the Issuer at their principal amount (together with any outstanding interest or additional amounts).

(G) If the Loan should become repayable (and be repaid), otherwise than as provided in sub-clause (F) above, pursuant to the Loan Agreement prior to the Repayment Date, all Notes then outstanding shall thereupon become due and redeemable or repayable in accordance with the Conditions (together with any outstanding interest or additional amounts).

(M) The Issuer (a) shall at its own cost and expense (to the extent it receives the funds therefor from the Borrower) execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Trustee may reasonably require (including, without limitation, the giving of notices of charge or transfer and the effecting of filings or registrations in any jurisdiction) for perfecting or protecting the Charged Property or the Transferred Rights and (b) from time to time and at any time after the Charged Property or any part thereof has become enforceable or from time to time and at any time in respect of the Transferred Rights, shall execute and do all such assurances, acts and things as the Trustee may reasonably require for facilitating the realisation of, or enforcement of rights in respect of, all or any of the Charged Property or Transferred Rights, as the case may be. For the purposes of this sub-clause (M), a certificate in writing signed by the Trustee to the effect that any particular execution, assurance, act or thing required by it is reasonably required shall be conclusive evidence of the fact.

(N) The Trustee shall not nor shall any Appointee of the Trustee by reason of taking possession of all or any of the Charged Property or Transferred Rights (as applicable) or any other reason whatsoever and whether as mortgagee in possession or on any other basis whatsoever be liable to account for anything except actual receipts or be liable for any loss or damage arising from realisation of, or enforcement of rights in respect of such Charged Property or Transferred Rights or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Issuer or any other person or in which the Issuer or such other person has an interest, from any act, default or omission in relation to such Charged Property or Transferred Rights or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Issuer or any other person or in which the Issuer or such other person has an interest, or from any exercise or non-exercise by the Trustee or such Appointee (as the case may be) of any power, authority or discretion conferred upon it in relation to all or any of the Charged Property or Transferred Rights or any other property, assets, rights or undertakings of whatsoever nature whether or not owned by the Issuer or any other person or in which the Issuer or such other person has an interest, by or pursuant to these presents.

(O) The powers conferred by these presents in relation to all or any of the Charged Property or Transferred Rights (as applicable) on the Trustee or on any Appointee shall be in addition to and not in substitution for the powers conferred on mortgagees or receivers (in the case of an

12

appointment of a Receiver) under the Law of Property Xxx 0000 and the Insolvency Xxx 0000 and where there is any ambiguity or conflict between the powers contained in such Acts and those conferred by these presents the terms of these presents shall prevail.

(P) No person dealing with the Trustee or with any Appointee of all or any of the Charged Property or Transferred Rights (as applicable) appointed by the Trustee shall be concerned to enquire whether any event has happened upon which any of the powers, authorities and discretions conferred by or pursuant to these presents in relation to such Charged Property or Transferred Rights or any other property, assets or undertaking are or may be exercisable by the Trustee or by any such Appointee or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of acts purporting or intended to be in exercise of any such powers, authorities or discretions and all the protections of purchasers contained in Sections 104 and 107 of the Law of Property Xxx 0000 shall apply to any person purchasing from or dealing with the Trustee or any such Appointee in like manner as if the statutory powers of sale and of appointing an Appointee in relation to such Charged Property or Transferred Rights or any other property, assets or undertaking had not been varied or extended by these presents.

5. STAMP DUTIES

Subject to receipt of the necessary funds from the Borrower for such purpose pursuant to or in connection with the Loan Agreement, the Issuer will pay all stamp duties, stamp duty reserve tax and other similar duties or taxes (if any) including interest and penalties payable in the United Kingdom, Luxembourg or Belgium on (i) the constitution, issue and offering of the Notes, (ii) the initial delivery of the Note Certificates, and (iii) the execution or delivery of these presents.

6. COVENANT TO OBSERVE PROVISIONS OF THE TRUST DEED AND SCHEDULES

The Issuer hereby covenants to comply with those provisions of these presents which are expressed to be binding on it and to perform and observe the same. The Notes shall be held subject to the provisions contained in these presents, all of which shall be binding upon the Issuer and the Noteholders and all persons claiming through or under them respectively.

7. ACTION; ENFORCEMENT PROCEEDINGS; EVIDENCE OF DEFAULT

(A) The Trustee may at any time, at its discretion and without notice, institute such proceedings and/or take other steps as it may think fit to enforce the rights of the Noteholders and the provisions of these presents (which, for the avoidance of doubt, in the case of the Issuer shall mean to enforce the security created hereunder by the Issuer), but it shall not be bound to take any action in relation to these presents (including but not limited to the taking of any such proceedings and/or other steps) unless (i) it shall have been so directed by an Extraordinary Resolution or Written Resolution or (in the case only of the occurrence of an Event of Default or Relevant Event and provided, in each case, that such event is continuing) so requested in writing by Noteholders whose Notes constitute at least one-quarter in aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding, and (ii) it shall have been indemnified and/or provided with security to its satisfaction against all liabilities, proceedings, actions, claims and demands to which it may thereby become liable and all costs, charges and expenses which may be incurred by it in connection therewith. Only the Trustee may enforce the provisions of the

13

Notes or these presents or pursue the remedies under the general law to enforce the rights of the Noteholders and no Noteholders shall be entitled to enforce such provisions or pursue such remedies unless the Trustee, having become bound to proceed in accordance with these presents, has failed to do so within a reasonable time and such failure is continuing provided that any judgment or amount obtained as a result of such action or exercise of rights must be entered or held or, as the case may be, registered in the name of the Trustee and shall be held or dealt with by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with these presents.

The Trustee makes no representation as to and assumes no responsibility for the validity or enforceability of the Loan Agreement or the performance by the Issuer of its obligations under or in respect of the Notes and these presents or by the Borrower or the Issuer in respect of the Loan Agreement.

(B) Should the Trustee make any claim in respect of, or lodge any proof in a winding-up in respect of, or institute any proceedings to enforce, any obligation under these presents or the Loan Agreement or in respect of the Notes, proof therein that, as regards any specified Note, default has been made in paying any amount in respect of principal, premium, if any, or interest due to the relative Noteholder shall (unless the contrary to be proved) be sufficient evidence that default has been made as regards all other Notes in respect of which a corresponding payment is then due.

8. APPLICATION OF MONEYS RECEIVED BY THE TRUSTEE

(A) The Trustee shall apply all moneys received by it under these presents (without prejudice to Clause 9):

(i) first, in payment or satisfaction of the costs, charges, expenses and liabilities properly incurred by the Trustee and/or any Appointee in or about the preparation and execution of the trusts of these presents (including remuneration of the Trustee and of any Appointee);

(ii) secondly, in or towards payment pari passu and rateably of all arrears of amounts corresponding to principal, premium, if any, and interest remaining unpaid in respect of the Notes; and

(iii) the balance (if any) in payment to the Issuer.

(B) Without prejudice to the provisions of this Clause, if the Trustee shall hold any moneys which represent amounts payable in respect of Notes which have become void under Condition 8, the Trustee shall hold such moneys on the above trusts provided that the Trustee shall be required to treat any payments of principal, premium, if any, and/or interest due under the Notes as having been satisfied and no amounts as outstanding or owing in respect thereof.

9. POWER TO RETAIN AND INVEST LESS THAN 10 PER CENT.

(A) Other than with respect to interest payments received by the Trustee pursuant to Clause 2(E)(b), if the amount of the moneys at any time available for payment of amounts due in respect of the Notes under Clause 8(A) shall be less than the amount due on such date and less than a sum sufficient to pay at least one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding, the Trustee may, at its discretion, invest such moneys upon some or one of the investments hereinafter authorised with power from time to time, at the like discretion, to vary such investments and such investments with the resulting income thereof, if any, may be accumulated until the accumulations together with any other funds for the time

14

being under the control of the Trustee and applicable for this purpose shall amount to a sum sufficient to pay at least one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding in which event any accumulations and funds representing moneys originally available for payment under Clause 8(A) and so invested shall be applied under Clause 8(A) and all interest and other income deriving from such accumulations and funds shall be applied first in payment or satisfaction of the costs, charges, expenses and liabilities incurred by the Trustee and/or any Appointee in or about the preparation and execution of the trust of these presents (including remuneration of the Trustee and of any Appointee) and otherwise in payment pari passu and rateably to those holders entitled to the moneys so invested.

(B) Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Trust Deed, if the Trustee shall be required to make any deduction or withholding from any distribution or payment made by it under this Trust Deed or if the Trustee shall otherwise be charged to, or may become liable to, costs (other than in respect of its fees) as a consequence of performing its duties under this Trust Deed (including in relation to the Loan Agreement) and whether in connection with or arising from any sums received or distributed by it or to which it may be entitled under this Trust Deed or the Loan Agreement, then the Trustee shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding or (as the case may be) to retain out of sums received by it an amount which in its opinion is sufficient to discharge any liability or prospective liability to costs which relates to sums so received or distributed, or to discharge any such other liability of the Trustee to costs.

10. AUTHORISED INVESTMENTS

Any moneys which under the trusts herein contained ought to or may be invested by the Trustee may be invested in the name or under the control of the Trustee in any of the investments for the time being authorised by English law for the investment by trustees of trust moneys or in any other investments, whether similar to those aforesaid or not which may be selected by the Trustee or by placing the same on deposit in the name or under the control of the Trustee with such bank or other financial institution as the Trustee may think fit and in such currency as the Trustee in its absolute discretion may determine and the Trustee may at any time vary or transfer any of such investments for or into other such investments or convert any moneys so deposited into any other currency and shall not be responsible for any loss occasioned by reason of any such investments or such deposit whether by depreciation in value, fluctuation in exchange rates or otherwise.

Any such variation, termination or appointment shall only take effect (other than in the case of insolvency, when it shall be of immediate effect) after not more than 45 days’ and not less than 30 days’ notice thereof shall have been given to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14.

15

12. PRODUCTION OF NOTE CERTIFICATES

Upon payment to a Noteholder under Clauses 8 or 9 of amounts corresponding to principal under the Loan, the Note Certificate in respect of which such payment is made shall, if the Trustee so requires, be produced to the Trustee or the Principal Paying Agent by or through whom such payment is made and the Trustee shall, in the case of part payment, enface or cause the Registrar to enface a memorandum of the amount and date of payment on such Note Certificate or, in the case of payment of the amount corresponding in full, shall cause to be surrendered to the Trustee such Note Certificate or shall cancel or procure the same to be cancelled and shall certify or procure the certification of such cancellation.

25

(i) Notwithstanding any other provision contained in Clause 17(A) or 17(B), none of the provisions of these presents shall in any case in which the Trustee has failed to show the degree of care and diligence required of it, having regard to the provisions of these presents conferring on the Trustee any powers, authorities or discretions, relieve or indemnify the Trustee against any liabilities which by virtue of any rule of law would otherwise attach to it in respect of any negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust of which it may be guilty in relation to its duties under these presents.

18. SUBSTITUTION

(A) Without the consent of the Trustee or an Extraordinary Resolution or a Written Resolution (but subject to Clause 18(F)), the Issuer (or any previous Substitute (as defined below) under this sub-clause), may substitute itself as the principal debtor under these presents, by any Successor (in this Clause called the “Substitute”) PROVIDED THAT:

(i) a trust deed is executed or some other form of undertaking is given by the Substitute to the Trustee, in form and manner satisfactory to the Trustee, agreeing to be bound by the terms of these presents and the Notes with any consequential or other amendments which may be appropriate as fully as if the Substitute had been named in these presents as the principal debtor in place of the Issuer (or any such previous Substitute);

(ii) arrangements are made to the satisfaction of the Trustee for the Noteholders to have or be able to have the same or equivalent rights against the Substitute as they have against the Issuer (or any such previous Substitute);

(iii) the Substitute shall have acquired the rights and assumed the obligations of the Issuer (or any such previous Substitute) under or in connection with the Loan Agreement and the Account and such rights shall have been effectively charged to the Trustee in a manner satisfactory to the Trustee and such amendments to the Loan Agreement and these presents as the Trustee may reasonably require shall have been made (including, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, but subject to Clause (vi) below, the substitution therein where relevant of references to the territory where the Substitute is incorporated, domiciled or resident for references to Luxembourg);

(iv) the Issuer (or any such previous Substitute) and the Substitute comply with such other reasonable requirements as the Trustee may direct in the interests of the Noteholders;

(v) the Trustee is satisfied that the Substitute has obtained all governmental and regulatory and internal corporate approvals and consents necessary for its assumption of the obligations and liabilities under these presents in place of the Issuer (or of any such previous Substitute) and such approvals and consents are at the time of substitution in full force and effect;

(vi) (without prejudice to the generality of paragraphs (i) to (v) (inclusive) of this sub-clause) where the Substitute is incorporated, domiciled or resident in a territory other than Luxembourg (which territory must be a Qualifying Jurisdiction (as defined in the Loan Agreement)), undertakings or covenants are given in terms corresponding to the provisions of Condition 7 with the substitution for the references to Luxembourg of references to the territory in which the Substitute is incorporated, domiciled or resident or to the taxing jurisdiction of which, or of any political subdivision or authority of or in which, the Substitute is otherwise subject generally;

26

(vii) the Substitute shall be a bank or other institution which at the time being exempts the payments by the Borrower under the Loan from value added tax in the Russian Federation;

(viii) as a consequence of such substitution, the Notes continue on the substitution and promptly thereafter to be listed on any stock exchange on which they are then listed;

(ix) the Trustee is satisfied that the said substitution is not materially prejudicial to the interests of the Noteholders as a class; and

(x) the Issuer or the Substitute shall have delivered to the Trustee and to the Borrower an opinion of an independent lawyer to the effect that neither the Issuer, the Substitute, as the case may be, nor the Noteholders will recognise income, gain or loss for tax purposes as a result of the substitution and the Issuer, the Substitute and the Noteholders will be subject to taxes on the same amount and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such substitution had not occurred.

(B) Any such agreement by the Trustee pursuant to sub-clause (A) of this Clause shall, to the extent so expressed, operate to release the Issuer or previous Substitute (as the case may be) from any or all of its obligations under these presents. Not later than fourteen days after the execution of any such documents as aforesaid and after compliance with the Trustee’s said requirements, notice thereof shall be given by the Issuer or previous Substitute (as the case may be) to the Noteholders in the manner provided in Condition 14.

(C) Upon the execution of such documents and compliance with the said requirements, the Substitute shall be deemed to be named in these presents as the principal debtor in place of the Issuer or previous Substitute (as the case may be) and these presents shall thereupon be deemed to be amended in such manner as shall be necessary to give effect to the substitution and, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, any references in these presents to the Issuer shall be deemed to be references to the Substitute.

(D) If any two directors (or other equivalent officers) of the Substitute shall certify to the Trustee that the Substitute is solvent at the time at which the said substitution is proposed to be effected, the Trustee shall not be bound to have regard to the financial condition, profits or prospects of the Substitute or to compare the same with those of the Issuer or (as the case may be) the previous Substitute.

(E) The Issuer or previous Substitute, as the case may be, shall not be entitled to substitute itself if, pursuant to the law of the country of incorporation, domicile or residence of the Substitute, the assumption by the Substitute of its obligations imposes responsibilities on the Trustee over and above those which have been assumed under these presents.

19. TRUSTEE ENTITLED TO ASSUME DUE PERFORMANCE

Except as herein otherwise expressly provided, the Trustee shall be and is hereby authorised to assume without enquiry, in the absence of knowledge or express notice to the contrary, that the Issuer is duly performing and observing all the covenants and provisions contained in these presents relating to the Issuer and on its part to be performed and observed, that the Borrower is duly performing and observing all the covenants and provisions contained in the Loan Agreement and on its part to be performed and observed and that no event has happened upon the happening of which any of the Notes shall have or may become repayable.

20. WAIVER

The Trustee may, without any consent or sanction of the Noteholders and without prejudice to its rights in respect of any subsequent breach, condition, event or act, from time to time and at any time, but only if and in so far as in its opinion the interests of the Noteholders shall not be materially prejudiced thereby, authorise or waive, or agree to the waiving or authorising on such terms and conditions (if any) as shall seem expedient to it, any breach or proposed breach by the Issuer of any of the covenants or provisions contained in these presents or, pursuant to the Security Interests, by the Borrower of the terms of the Loan Agreement or determine that any event which would or might otherwise give rise to a right of acceleration under the Loan Agreement shall not be treated as such for the purposes of these presents, PROVIDED ALWAYS THAT the Trustee shall not exercise any powers conferred upon it by this clause in contravention of any request given by the holders of at least one quarter in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding or of any express direction by an Extraordinary Resolution or Written Resolution save, in the case of such request, where the same is contrary to any such express direction (but so that no such request or direction shall affect any authorisation, waiver or determination previously given or made) or so as to authorise or waive any such proposed breach or breach relating to any of the matters the subject of the proviso to paragraph 17 of the Fourth Schedule. Any such authorisation or waiver shall be binding on the Noteholders and, unless the Trustee agrees otherwise, shall be notified to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14.

21. POWER TO DELEGATE

The Trustee may, in the execution and exercise of all or any of the trusts, powers, authorities and discretions vested in it by these presents, act by responsible officers or a responsible officer for the time being of the Trustee and the Trustee may also whenever it thinks fit, whether by power of attorney or otherwise, delegate to any person or persons all or any of the trusts, powers, authorities and discretions vested in it by these presents and any such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions and subject to such regulations (including power to sub-delegate with the consent of the Trustee and including the power to do all or any of the acts and things listed in the Sixth Schedule hereto) as the Trustee may think fit in the interests of the Noteholders and, provided that the Trustee shall have exercised reasonable care in the selection of such delegate, it shall not be bound to supervise the

proceedings and shall not in any way or to any extent be responsible for any loss incurred by a misconduct or default on the part of such delegate or sub-delegate and without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing the Trustee shall be entitled at any time following an Event of Default to appoint a delegate (subject to the provisions of applicable law) in the name of and on behalf of the Issuer.

22. COMPETENCE OF A MAJORITY OF TRUSTEES

23. APPOINTMENT OF TRUSTEES

(A) The power of appointing new trustees shall be vested in the Issuer but a trustee so appointed must in the first place be approved by the Borrower and subsequently by an Extraordinary Resolution or Written Resolution. A trust corporation may be appointed sole trustee hereof but subject thereto there shall be at least two trustees hereof one at least of which shall be a trust corporation. Any appointment of a new trustee hereof shall as soon as practicable thereafter be notified by the Trustee to the Principal Paying Agent and the other Agents and to the Noteholders. The Noteholders shall together have the power, exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution or Written Resolution, to remove any trustee or trustees for the time being hereof.

(B) Notwithstanding the provisions of sub-clause (A) of this Clause, the Trustee may, upon giving prior notice to but without the consent of the Issuer or the Noteholders, appoint any person established or resident in any jurisdiction (whether a trust corporation or not) to act either as a separate trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with the Trustee (i) if the Trustee considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Noteholders, (ii) for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirements, restrictions or conditions in any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts is or are to be performed or (iii) for the purpose of obtaining a judgment, or enforcement in any jurisdiction of either a judgment already obtained or any provision of these presents, against the Issuer or the Borrower. The Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints the Trustee to be its attorney in its name and on its behalf to execute any such instrument of appointment. Such a person shall (subject always to the provisions of these presents) have such trusts, powers, authorities and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the Trustee by these presents) and such duties and obligations as shall be conferred on such person or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The Trustee shall have power in like manner to remove any such person. Such reasonable remuneration as the Trustee may pay to any such person, together with any attributable costs, charges and expenses incurred by it in performing its function as such separate trustee or co-trustee, shall for the purposes of these presents be treated as costs, charges and expenses incurred by the Trustee.

24. RETIREMENT OF TRUSTEES

Any Trustee for the time being of these presents may retire at any time upon giving not less than three months’ notice in writing to the Issuer without assigning any reason therefor and without being responsible for any costs occasioned by such retirement.

The Issuer may from time to time with the consent of the Borrower and without the consent of the Noteholders create and issue further notes or bonds either ranking pari passu with the Notes in all respects (or in all respects except for the first payment of interest thereon) and so that such further issue is consolidated and forms a single series with the notes or bonds of any series of the Issuer (including the Notes) or upon such other terms as the Issuer may determine, with the consent of the Borrower, at the time of their issue. Any further notes or bonds forming a single series with the outstanding notes or bonds of any series of the Issuer (including the Notes) constituted by the Trust Deed will, and any other notes or bonds of the Issuer may (with the consent of the Trustee), be constituted by a deed supplemental to the Trust Deed. This Trust Deed contains provisions for convening a single meeting of Noteholders and the holders of notes or bonds of other series in certain circumstances where the Trustee so decides.

2. The Trustee, the Borrower or the Issuer at any time may, and the Trustee (subject to its being indemnified or secured to its satisfaction against all costs and expenses thereby occasioned) upon a request in writing of Noteholders holding not less than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding or when it considers it necessary to take action requiring Noteholder approval or give any other directions with respect to the Loan Agreement shall, convene a meeting of the Noteholders. When required to convene a meeting, the Trustee shall do so as promptly as practicable. Whenever any such party is about to convene any such meeting it shall forthwith give notice in writing to the other parties of the day, time and place thereof and of the nature of the business to be transacted thereat. Every such meeting shall be held at such time and place as the Trustee may appoint or approve. The Trustee, the Borrower or the Issuer at any time may, and the Trustee (subject to its being indemnified or secured to its satisfaction against all costs and expenses thereby occasioned) upon a request in writing of Noteholders holding not less than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding or when it considers it necessary to take action requiring Noteholder approval or give any other directions with respect to the Loan Agreement shall, notify Noteholders of a proposed Written Resolution in accordance with the Conditions.

At least 14 days’ notice (exclusive of the day on which the notice is given and the day on which the meeting is held) specifying the day, time and place of meeting shall be given to the Noteholders in the manner provided in the Conditions. A copy of the notice shall be given to the Trustee unless the meeting shall be convened by the Trustee, to the Issuer unless the meeting shall be convened by the Issuer and to the Borrower unless the meeting shall be convened by the Borrower. Such notice shall, unless in any particular case the Trustee otherwise agrees or determines, specify the terms of the resolution(s) to be proposed and shall include a statement to the effect that the Noteholders may appoint proxies by executing and delivering a form of proxy in the English language as aforesaid or may appoint representatives by resolution of their directors or other governing body.

63

4. A person (who may, but need not, be a Noteholder) nominated in writing by the Trustee shall be entitled to take the chair at every such meeting but if no such nomination is made or if at any meeting the person nominated shall not be present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for the holding of such meeting the Noteholders present shall choose one of their number to be chairman and, failing such choice, the Issuer may appoint a chairman (who may, but need not, be a Noteholder).

5. At any such meeting one or more persons present in person holding Notes or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing more than half of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding shall form a quorum for the transaction of business except that at any meeting the business of which includes the modification of certain terms, conditions and provisions as listed in the proviso to paragraph 17 hereof the quorum will be one or more persons present in person holding Notes or being proxies or representatives and holding or representing not less than the entire aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding and no business (other than the choosing of a chairman) shall be transacted at any meeting unless the requisite quorum be present at the commencement of business.

7. The chairman may with the consent of (and shall if directed by) any meeting adjourn the same from time to time and from place to place but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting except business which might lawfully have been transacted at the meeting from which the adjournment took place.

8. At least 10 days’ notice of any meeting adjourned through want of a quorum shall be given in the same manner as of an original meeting and such notice shall state the quorum required at such adjourned meeting. Subject as aforesaid it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an adjourned meeting.

9. Every question submitted to a meeting shall be decided on a poll and in case of equality of votes the chairman shall on a poll have a casting vote in addition to the vote or votes (if any) to which he may be entitled as a Noteholder or as a proxy or as a representative.

10. If at any meeting a poll is so demanded, it shall be taken in such manner and (subject as hereinafter provided) either at once or after such an adjournment as the chairman directs and the result of such poll shall be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting at which the poll was demanded as at the date of the taking of the poll. The demand for a poll shall not prevent the continuance of the meeting for the transaction of any business other than the question to which the poll has been demanded.

64

11. Any poll at any meeting on the election of a chairman or on any question of adjournment shall be taken at the meeting without adjournment.

12.

Save as aforesaid no person shall be entitled to attend or vote at any meeting of the Noteholders or to join with others in requesting the convening of such a meeting unless he is a Noteholder or is a proxy or a representative. Neither the Issuer nor the Borrower nor any of the Borrower’s subsidiaries shall be entitled to vote in respect of Notes beneficially owned by or on behalf of any of them but this shall not prevent any proxy or any representative from being a director, officer or representative of, or otherwise connected with, the Issuer or the Borrower or any subsidiary of the Issuer.

13. Subject as provided in paragraph 12 hereof, at any meeting every person who is so present shall have one vote in respect of $1,000 in principal amount of each Note so held or in respect of which he is a proxy or a representative.

15. Each form of proxy shall be deposited by the Principal Paying Agent or (as the case may be) by the Registrar or the Transfer Agent at such place as the Trustee shall designate or approve not less than 24 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the proxies named in the form of proxy propose to vote and in default the form of proxy shall not be treated as valid unless the chairman of the meeting decides otherwise before such meeting or adjourned meeting proceeds to business. A copy of each form of proxy shall be deposited with the Trustee before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting but the Trustee shall not thereby be obliged to investigate or be concerned with the validity of or the authority of the proxies named in such form of proxy.

16. Any vote given in accordance with the terms of a form of proxy shall be valid notwithstanding the previous revocation or amendment of the form of proxy or of any of the Noteholders’ instructions pursuant to which it was executed, provided that no intimation in writing of such revocation or amendment shall have been received by the Principal Paying Agent at its registered office or by the chairman of the meeting, in each case by the time being 24 hours before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the form of proxy is intended to be used.

17. A meeting of the Noteholders shall, in addition to the power hereinbefore given, but without prejudice to any powers conferred on other persons by these presents, have the following powers exercisable by Extraordinary Resolution namely:

(a) power to sanction any proposal by the Issuer or the Borrower for any modification, alteration, abrogation, variation or compromise of, or arrangement in respect of, the rights of the Noteholders against the Issuer, or of the Issuer against the Borrower, whether such rights shall arise under these presents, the Loan Agreement or otherwise;

(b) power to assent to any alteration of the provisions contained in these presents or the Notes which shall be proposed by the Issuer or the Trustee;

65

(c) power to approve a person proposed to be appointed as a new Trustee under the Trust Deed and power to remove any Trustee or Trustees for the time being thereof;

(d) power to authorise the Trustee to concur in and execute and do all such documents, acts and things as may be necessary to carry out and give effect to any Extraordinary Resolution;

(f) power to give any authority, discretion or sanction under which the provisions of these presents or the Notes is required to be given by Extraordinary Resolution; and

(g) power to appoint any persons (whether a Noteholder or not) as a committee or committees to represent the interests of the Notes and to confer upon such committee or committees any powers or discretions which the Noteholders could themselves exercise by Extraordinary Resolution.

PROVIDED THAT the provisions of paragraph 6 of this Schedule for a reduced quorum at adjourned meetings shall not apply to any resolution whereby:

(6) any date fixed for payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest shall be changed or the amount of principal, premium, if any, or interest payable shall be reduced or the method of calculating the amount of any payment shall be altered in each case under the Loan Agreement or the currency in which any such payments shall be made shall be varied;

(7) the governing law of the Conditions or the Trust Deed shall be varied or altered;

(8) the variation or alteration of the governing law of, or the events of default set forth in Clause 15 of, the Loan Agreement shall be sanctioned.

66

(9) a waiver of an event of default set forth in Clause 15 of the Loan Agreement following the exercise of the right to accelerate thereunder or the waiver of an event of default set forth in Clause 15.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) of the Loan Agreement that has given rise to a right of acceleration under the Loan Agreement where the Issuer, the Holders or the Trustee have or has not yet exercised such right shall be sanctioned or would, with the passage of time, give rise to such right;

(10) the variation or alteration of Clause 21.4 of the Loan Agreement shall be sanctioned;

(11) any scheme or proposal of the exchange or sale of the Notes for or the conversion of the Notes into or the cancellation or termination of the Notes in consideration of shares, stock, notes, bonds, debentures, debenture stock and/or other obligations and/or securities of the Issuer or any other company formed or to be formed, or for or into or in consideration of cash, or partly for or into or in consideration of such shares, stock, notes, bonds, debentures, debenture stock and/or other obligations and/or securities as aforesaid and partly for or into or in consideration of cash shall be sanctioned;

(12) the provisions of this Schedule concerning the quorum required at any meeting of the Noteholders or any adjourned such meeting thereof or concerning the majority required to pass an Extraordinary Resolution shall be amended; or

(13) this proviso is amended in any manner.

18. Any resolution passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with these presents shall be binding upon all the Noteholders whether present or not present at such meeting, and the Noteholders shall be bound to give effect thereto accordingly. The passing of any such resolution shall be conclusive evidence that the circumstances of any resolution justify the passing thereof. Notice of the result of the voting on any resolution duly considered by the Noteholders shall be given to the Noteholders by the Trustee in accordance with Condition 14 within 14 days of such result being known provided that the failure to give such notice shall not invalidate such resolution.

19. The expression “Extraordinary Resolution” when used in these presents means a resolution passed at a meeting of the Noteholders duly convened and held in accordance with these presents by either (i) a majority of the votes cast on a poll representing more than half (or, in the case of an adjourned meeting, one quarter) of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding or (ii) in respect of an Extraordinary Resolution the business of which includes the modification of certain terms, conditions and provisions as listed in the proviso to paragraph 17 hereof, a poll representing the entire aggregate principal amount of the Notes for the time being outstanding. A Written Resolution shall take effect as if it were an Extraordinary Resolution provided that at least 14 days have elapsed following the date of notification of such resolution to the Noteholders in accordance with Condition 14.

20.
