Such payment shall be due and payable by the Borrower to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Telenet Additional Facility V Lender) under the Term Loan V Facility on the actual date of such mandatory prepayment. |
14. | At any time prior to 15 August 2018, upon the occurrence of a voluntary prepayment of any or all of the Term Loan V Facility by the Borrower under the Term Loan V Facility under Clause 7.6 (Voluntary prepayment) of the Credit Agreement (other than a voluntary prepayment complying with Clause 16 or Clause 17 below), the Borrower under the Term Loan V Facility agrees to pay to the Facility Agent (for the account of the Telenet Additional Facility V Lender) an amount equal to the Additional Amount (as defined below) (calculated as of a date no more than three Business Days prior to the date of the relevant prepayment notice), plus accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of the Term Loan V Facility Loan prepaid to the due date of prepayment.

(i) | the present value at such prepayment date of (i) the amount that would be payable (as set out in clause 16 below) in respect of the Term Loan V Facility if the Term Loan V Facility were prepaid pursuant to Clause 7.6 (Voluntary prepayment) of the Credit Agreement, plus (ii) the principal amount of the Term Loan V Facility being prepaid plus (iii) all required interest payments due on the principal amount of the Term Loan V Facility being prepaid through 15 August 2018, (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the prepayment date and assuming such interest payments are calculated at the rate of interest on the Term Loan V Facility in effect on such prepayment date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Bund Rate as of such prepayment date plus 50 basis points; over |
(ii) | the principal amount of the Term Loan V Facility being prepaid. |
Bund Rate means, with respect to any relevant date, the rate per annum equal to the equivalent yield to maturity as of such date of the Comparable German Bund Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable German Bund Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable German Bund Price for such relevant date, where:
(i) “Comparable German Bund Issue” means the German Bundesanleihe security selected by any Reference German Bund Dealer as having a fixed maturity most nearly equal to the period from such prepayment date to15 August 2018, and that would be utilized at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of euro denominated corporate debt securities in a principal amount approximately equal to the then outstanding principal amount of the Notes and of a
maturity most nearly equal to15 August 2018; provided, however, that, if the period from such prepayment date to15 August 2018 is not equal to the fixed maturity of the German Bundesanleihe security selected by such Reference German Bund Dealer, the Bund Rate shall be determined by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the yields of German Bundesanleihe securities for which such yields are given, except that if the period from such prepayment date to 15 August 2018 is less than one year, a fixed maturity of one year shall be used;

31558624_3
(ii) “Comparable German Bund Price” means, with respect to any relevant date, the average of all Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations for such date (which, in any event, must include at least two such quotations), after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations, or if the Telenet Additional Facility V Lender obtains fewer than four such Reference German Bund Dealer Quotations, the average of all such quotations;
(iii) “Reference German Bund Dealer” means any dealer of German Bundesanleihe securities appointed by the Telenet Additional Facility V Lender in consultation with the Trustee; and
