SECTION 5

COSTS OF UTILISATION

9. INTEREST

9.1 Calculation of interest

The rate of interest on each Loan for each Interest Period is the percentage rate per annum which is the aggregate of the applicable:

(a) Margin;

(b) in the case of:

(i) a Loan:

(1) (other than a Loan in euro), LIBOR; and

(2) in euro, EURIBOR; or

(ii) a Same-Day Dollar Loan, Reference Bank Rate; and

(c) Mandatory Cost, if any.

9.2 Payment of interest

(a) The Borrower to which a Loan has been made shall pay accrued interest on that Loan on the last day of each Interest Period (and, if the Interest Period is longer than six Months, on the dates falling at six Monthly intervals after the first day of the Interest Period).

(b) If the annual audited financial statements of the Group and related Compliance Certificate show that a lower or higher Margin should have applied during a certain period then any subsequent payments of interest by such Borrower under this Agreement shall be adjusted either in the case of a lower Margin by way of set-off against the immediately succeeding interest payment at the end of the current Interest Period or in the case of a higher Margin by way of increasing the subsequent interest payment to ensure that such Borrower has paid the correct amount of interest based on the correct Margin for such period and to put the Agent and the Lenders or the Relevant Borrower in the position they would have been in had the appropriate rate of the Margin applied during such period provided that in the case of any Lender which became a Lender only during any such period, the adjustment will only apply to any interest received by it during the period for which it was a Lender and provided that in the case of any Lender which ceased to become a Lender during any such period, the adjustment will only apply to any interest received by it during the period for which it was a Lender.

9.3 Default interest

(a) If an Obligor fails to pay any amount payable by it under a Finance Document on its due date, interest shall accrue on the overdue amount from the due date up to the date of actual payment (both before and after judgment), subject to paragraph (b) below, at a rate one per cent. higher than the rate which would

- 42 -

have been payable if the overdue amount had, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan in the currency of the overdue amount for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Agent (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 9.3 shall be immediately payable by the Obligor on demand by the Agent.

(b) If any overdue amount consists of all or a part of a Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Loan:

(i) the first Interest Period for that overdue amount shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to that Loan; and

(ii) the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be the sum of one per cent. and the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

(c) Default interest (if unpaid) arising on an overdue amount will be compounded with the overdue amount at the end of each Interest Period applicable to that overdue amount but will remain immediately due and payable.

9.4 Notification of rates of interest

The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders and the relevant Borrower of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement.

9.5 Minimum Interest

By entering into this Agreement, the Parties have assumed that the interest payable hereunder is not and will not become subject to Swiss Withholding Tax. Therefore, all payments under this Agreement by an Obligor subject to Tax in Switzerland, including, but not limited to, the rate of interest as determined in accordance with this Clause 9 (Interest) have been computed as minimum payments net of any Swiss withholding tax. If it is required under Swiss law to deduct Swiss withholding tax from any amount payable or paid by the relevant Obligor on account of interest hereunder, then (a) the relevant Obligor shall increase such interest payment by paying such additional amounts as may be necessary to ensure that the net amounts received by the relevant Finance Party after deducting the amount of such Swiss withholding taxes is equal to the full amount which the relevant Finance Party would have received had payments not been subject to such Swiss withholding tax, (b) withholding tax shall be calculated on the increased interest rate, and (c) the respective Obligor shall provide the documents and information required for the purposes of applying for the refund of Swiss withholding taxes. Without prejudice to the foregoing, the provisions set forth in Clause 13 (Tax Gross Up and Indemnities) shall apply in relation to deductions of Tax.

10. INTEREST PERIODS

10.1 Selection of Interest Periods

(a) A Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent on behalf of a Borrower) may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan or (if the Loan has already been borrowed) in a Selection Notice.

- 43 -

(b) Each Selection Notice for a Facility A Loan is irrevocable and must be delivered to the Agent by the Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent on behalf of a Borrower) to which that Facility A Loan was made not later than the Specified Time.

(c) If a Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent) fails to deliver a Selection Notice to the Agent in accordance with paragraph (b) above, the relevant Interest Period will, subject to Clause 10.2 (Changes to Interest Periods), be three Months.

(d) Subject to this Clause 10, a Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent) may select an Interest Period of one, three or six Months or any other period agreed between the Obligors’ Agent and the Agent (acting on the instructions of all the Lenders). In addition a Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent on its behalf) may (in relation to Facility A) select an Interest Period of less than one Month, if necessary to ensure that there are Facility A Loans (with an aggregate Base Currency Amount equal to or greater than the Repayment Instalment) which have an Interest Period ending on a Facility A Repayment Date for the Borrowers to make the Repayment Instalment due on that date.

(e) An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Termination Date applicable to its Facility.

(f) Each Interest Period for a Facility A Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date or (if already made) on the last day of its preceding Interest Period.

(g) A Facility B Loan has one Interest Period only.

10.2 Changes to Interest Periods

(a) Prior to determining the interest rate for a Facility A Loan, the Agent may shorten an Interest Period for any Facility A Loan to ensure there are sufficient Facility A Loans with an Interest Period ending on a Facility A Repayment Date for the Borrowers to make the Repayment Instalment due on that Facility A Repayment Date.

(b) If the Agent makes any of the changes to an Interest Period referred to in this Clause 10.2, it shall promptly notify the Obligors’ Agent and the Lenders.

10.3 Non-Business Days

If an Interest Period would otherwise end on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Period will instead end on the next Business Day in that calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

10.4 Consolidation and division of Facility A Loans

(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, if two or more Interest Periods:

(i) relate to Facility A Loans in the same currency; and

(ii) end on the same date; and

(iii) are made to the same Borrower,

- 44 -

those Facility A Loans will, unless that Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent on its behalf) specifies to the contrary in the Selection Notice for the next Interest Period, be consolidated into, and treated as, a single Facility A Loan on the last day of the Interest Period.

(b) Subject to Clause 4.4 (Maximum number of Loans and Optional Currencies) and Clause 5.3 (Currency and amount), if a Borrower (or the Obligors’ Agent on its behalf) requests in a Selection Notice that a Facility A Loan be divided into two or more Facility A Loans, that Facility A Loan will, on the last day of its Interest Period, be so divided with Base Currency Amounts specified in that Selection Notice, being an aggregate Base Currency Amount equal to the Base Currency Amount of the Facility A Loan immediately before its division.

11.2 Market disruption

(iii) the Mandatory Cost, if any, applicable to that Lender’s participation in the Loan.

(b) In this Agreement “Market Disruption Event” means:

(i) where interest is calculable by reference to the Reference Bank Rate or at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Agent to determine the Reference Bank Rate,

- 45 -

LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR for the relevant currency and Interest Period; or

(ii) before close of business in London on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in a Loan exceed 20 per cent. of that Loan) that the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits in the London Interbank Market would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR.

11.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Agent or the Obligors’ Agent so requires, the Agent and the Obligors’ Agent shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

- 88 -

(c) Each Hedging Bank undertakes that it will not (unless the Majority Creditors have otherwise consented in writing) exercise any right to terminate or close out any hedging transaction under any Hedging Agreements to which it is party prior to its stated maturity (whether by reason of the Obligor counterparty becoming a Defaulting Party or Affected Party thereunder (each as defined therein) or otherwise) unless:

(i) such Obligor has defaulted on a payment due under such Hedging Agreement, after allowing for any required notice and any applicable days of grace, and such default continues for more than 21 days after notice of such default being given to the Agent; or

(ii) an Illegality, a Tax Event or a Tax Event upon Merger (each as defined in the ISDA 1992 Master Agreement or the ISDA Master Agreement 2002, as the case may be) has occurred; or

(d) Each Hedging Bank will, promptly after the Agent has served a notice under Clause 23.18 (Acceleration), exercise any and all rights it may have to terminate the hedging transactions under each Hedging Agreement to which it is party, unless the Agent (acting on the instructions of the Majority Creditors) otherwise agrees or requires.

(e) Each Hedging Bank agrees that (unless the Majority Creditors have otherwise agreed in writing) it will not enforce any Transaction Security or require any other person to enforce the same in respect of amounts owing under any Hedging Agreement to which it is party.

The provisions of this Clause 22.9 shall cease to apply after the Loans have been prepaid or repaid in full and the Lenders are under no obligation to participate in further Loans.

(ii) duly executed Accession Letter(s) in relation to a Subsidiary (or Subsidiaries) of the Parent acceding as Guarantor(s) together with the documents and other evidence set out in Part II of Schedule 2 (Conditions Precedent), each in a form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, such Subsidiary (or Subsidiaries) to be such that, if taken into account as a Guarantor (or Guarantors) for the purposes of determining compliance with paragraph (b) above in relation to the financial year of the Parent ending immediately prior to the delivery of such documents, would result in the Parent being in compliance with such paragraph (b) in respect of such financial year.

(d) For these purposes, the calculation of Guarantor EBITDA and gross assets shall be made in accordance with U.S. GAAP and in relation to any Guarantor shall be made on an unconsolidated basis and Guarantor EBITDA shall be calculated on the same basis as EBITDA in Clause 21.1 (Financial definitions) but adjusted so that it is on an unconsolidated basis applicable to the relevant Guarantor only.

(e) The Parent shall not be required to meet any of the requirements of paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) above or (f) or (g) below to the extent that it satisfies the Agent (acting reasonably) that it (or a relevant Subsidiary which would otherwise meet such requirements) cannot meet such requirements:

(i) by reason of legal or regulatory impediment which are beyond its or any member of the Group’s control (acting reasonably) (including, but not limited to, prohibitions relating to financial assistance or lack of corporate benefit); or

(ii) without becoming liable to pay taxes, duties or other amounts which, in the opinion of the Agent (on Majority Lenders’ instructions, acting reasonably), are disproportionate to the value or practical benefit of the Security or guarantee; or

(iii) because directors of the relevant Subsidiary would be subject to (a) a material risk of civil liability or (b) a reasonably possible risk of any

- 98 -

criminal liability based on the advice of its legal counsel if such Subsidiary was to provide a guarantee and/or Security for the Facilities; or

(iv) in the case of any Non Wholly-Owned Subsidiary, by reason of any applicable restriction contained in any relevant constitutional document, shareholders’ agreement, joint venture agreement or similar agreement.

The Parent shall use reasonable endeavours to ensure that relevant members of the Group do all that is necessary in order to ensure that such relevant members of the Group can become Additional Guarantors.

(f) The Parent shall ensure that (taking into account paragraph (e) above and paragraphs (g) and (h) below) at all times prior to the Security Release Date Guarantors required to meet the requirements of paragraph (b) above have each provided Transaction Security in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and that all such Transaction Security remains, subject to the provisions of the Finance Documents, in place until released on the Security Release Date or otherwise in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents.

(g) If required by the Agent (and to the extent permitted under applicable law), each entity which is to become an Additional Obligor prior to the Security Release Date shall enter into Security Documents(s) in favour of the Security Agent for the benefit of the Finance Parties (or, if applicable, directly in favour of the Finance Parties) over all its assets, business and undertaking as Security for all indebtedness under the Finance Documents, such Security to provide (to the extent permissible and practicable under applicable law) equivalent security over such assets, business and undertaking (together “Relevant Assets”) as granted to the Security Agent (or, as applicable, the Finance Parties) by Group Companies with similar Relevant Assets incorporated in the same jurisdiction as such Additional Obligor and, if such Additional Obligor is incorporated in a jurisdiction in which no other Group Company incorporated in that jurisdiction with similar Relevant Assets has granted Security. The Security Documents shall be in such form and substance as (following consultation with the Obligors’ Agent) may be reasonably required by the Agent (having due regard to the practicality and costs involved in taking any such Security).

(h) Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph (g) above, if a proposed Additional Obligor is required to become an Additional Guarantor prior to the Security Release Date as a result of the provisions of paragraph (a) above and without such Additional Obligor providing Transaction Security other Guarantors which together satisfy the requirements of paragraph (b) above have all provided Transaction Security in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (which Transaction Security continues to remain in place) then such proposed Additional Obligor shall not be required to give any Transaction Security.

(i) As soon as reasonably practicable following the receipt by the Security Agent of a request from the Parent after the Security Release Date, the Security Agent and each other Finance Party to whom an Obligor has granted Transaction

- 99 -

Security (the “Security Beneficiaries”) shall release without recourse or warranty the Charged Property held by the Obligors from the Transaction Security and shall execute any assignments, transfers, releases or other documents and make all filings that are necessary to release the Charged Property from the Transaction Security. The Security Agent shall at the request of the Obligors’ Agent issue certificates of non crystallization of any floating charges granted pursuant to the Security Documents.

(j) From and including the Security Release Date, no entity that becomes an Additional Obligor pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (a) above shall be required to grant Security over any of its assets, business or undertaking for the Secured Obligations.

(k) With effect from the Security Release Date, the following provisions of this Agreement shall cease to apply and shall be of no further force and effect:

paragraph (b)(B) of the definition of “Material Adverse Effect”, Clause 13.5 (Stamp Taxes) to the extent it relates to Transaction Security, Clause 17.3 (Enforcement Costs) to the extent it relates to Charged Property, the proviso to paragraph (b)(iv) of Clause 22.4 (Disposals), paragraph (c) of Clause 22.4 (Disposals), paragraph (a)(iii) of Clause 22.5 (Merger), the requirement to name the Security Agent in the Material Insurances pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of Clause 22.7 (Insurance), paragraphs (a)(iii)(A) and (B) of Clause 22.7 (Insurance) and the requirement to confirm compliance therewith pursuant to paragraph (b)(i) of Clause 22.7 (Insurance), paragraph (a)(ii) of Clause 22.9 (Hedging Arrangements), paragraph (b)(iii)(a) of Clause 22.11 (Arm’s Length Transactions), paragraphs (f), (g) and (h) of Clause 22.23 (Guarantors and Security), Clause 22.33 (Security), paragraph (c) of Clause 23.10 (Unlawfulness and Invalidity), Clause 26.5 (Certain Security held on Trust), paragraph (h) of Clause 26.9 (Majority Lenders’ Instructions), Clause 26.20 (Insurance by Security Agent), Clause 26.21 (Manner of Enforcement of Security), Clause 26.22 (Winding-up of Trust and Perpetuity Period), Clause 26.23 (Other Provisions Relating to Security Agent), Clause 29.13 (Permitted Deductions by Security Agent), Clause 35.3 (Amendments to Security Documents), Clause 35.4 (Exceptions Relating to Security) and Clause 35.5 (Releases by Security Agent).

(l) No member of the Group that is not a U.S. Obligor shall, notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any Finance Document, be required to give a guarantee or create any Transaction Security in respect of the obligations of any U.S. Obligor or U.S. Bilateral Borrower that would result in any “deemed dividend” to any U.S. Obligor or U.S. Bilateral Borrower pursuant to the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated and the judicial and administrative decisions rendered under it.

(m) If at any time:

(i) the gross assets of Innospec Deutschland GmbH account for more than seven and a half per cent. of the consolidated gross assets of the Group; or

- 100 -

(ii) the EBITDA of Innospec Deutschland GmbH (“Innospec Deutschland EBITDA”) accounts for more than seven and a half per cent. of the EBITDA of the Group,

(and for this purpose the calculation of Innospec Deutschland EBITDA and gross assets, shall be calculated in accordance with paragraph (b)(i) to (iv) of the definition of Material Group Company, save for references to Subsidiary EBITDA shall be construed as references to Innospec Deutschland EBITDA and references to Subsidiary shall be construed as references to Innospec Deutschland GmbH and its Subsidiaries) then the Parent shall ensure, as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event within three Months after Innospec Deutschland GmbH first satisfying either of the tests specified in paragraphs (i) or (ii) above, Innospec Deutschland GmbH accedes to this Agreement as an Additional Guarantor in accordance with Clause 25.4 (Additional Guarantors).

(iii) the performance and observance by any Obligor of its obligations under the Finance Documents or any other documents; or

(iv) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document or any other document,

and any representations or warranties implied by law are excluded.

(b) Each New Lender confirms to the Existing Lender and the other Finance Parties that it:

(i) has made (and shall continue to make) its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by the Existing Lender in connection with any Finance Document; and

(ii) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities whilst any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

(i) accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and obligations assigned or transferred under this Clause 24; or

24.5 Procedure for transfer

(a) Subject to the conditions set out in Clause 24.2 (Conditions of assignment or transfer) a transfer is effected in accordance with paragraph (b) below when the Agent executes an otherwise duly completed Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender.

(b) The Agent shall only be obliged to execute a Transfer Certificate delivered to it by the Existing Lender and the New Lender upon its completion of all “know your customer” or other checks relating to any person that it is required to carry out in relation to the transfer to such New Lender.

(ii) each of the Obligors and the New Lender shall assume obligations towards one another and/or acquire rights against one another which differ from the Discharged Rights and Obligations only insofar as that Obligor and the New Lender have assumed and/or acquired the same in place of that Obligor and the Existing Lender;

(iii) the Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger, the New Lender and other Lenders shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations between themselves as they would have acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an Original Lender with the rights and/or obligations acquired or assumed by it as a result of the transfer and to that extent the Agent, the Security Agent, the Arranger and the Existing Lender shall each be released from further obligations to each other under this Agreement; and

(iv) the New Lender shall become a Party as a “Lender”.

Where the Security Agent is named on any insurance policy as an insured party, it shall not be responsible for any loss which may be suffered by reason of, directly or indirectly, its failure to notify the insurers of any material fact relating to the risk assumed by such insurers or any other information of any kind, unless any Finance Party shall have requested it to do so in writing and the Security Agent shall have failed to do so within fourteen days after receipt of that request.

26.21 Manner of enforcement of Security

Each of the Obligors waives, to the extent permitted under applicable law, all rights it may otherwise have to require that the Transaction Security be enforced in any particular order or manner or at any particular time or that any sum received or recovered from any person, or by virtue of the enforcement of any Transaction Security or any other Security, which is capable of being applied in or towards discharge of any of the Secured Obligations is so applied.

26.22 Winding-up of Trust and Perpetuity Period

If the Security Agent, with the approval of the Majority Lenders, determines that (a) all of the Secured Obligations and all other obligations secured by any of the Security Documents, have been fully and finally discharged and (b) none of the Finance Parties is under any commitment, obligation or liability (whether actual or contingent) to make Loans or provide other financial accommodation to any Obligor pursuant to the Finance Documents, the trusts set out in this Agreement shall be wound up. At that time unless already released on the Security Release Date, the Security Agent shall release, without recourse or warranty, all of the Transaction Security then held by it and the rights of the Security Agent under each of the Security Documents, at which time each of the Security Agent, the Agent, the Finance Parties and the Obligors shall be released from its obligations in respect of these trusts and the Transaction Security (save for those which arose prior to such winding-up). The perpetuity period under the rule against perpetuities, if applicable to this Agreement, shall be the period of eighty years from the date of this Agreement.

26.23 Other Provisions relating to Security Agent

(a) The Security Agent shall be entitled to carry out all dealings with the Finance Parties through the Agent, to give to the Agent any notice or other communication required to be given by the Security Agent to the Finance Parties and to rely on a certificate from the Agent as to the amount owed to any of the Finance Parties or by any Obligor.

(b) The Security Agent may place (at the cost of the Obligors) any of the Finance Documents and any other documents relating to the Transaction Security in any

- 126 -

safe custody selected by the Security Agent or with any financial institution, any company whose business includes the safe custody of documents or any firm of lawyers of good repute and the Security Agent shall not be responsible for, or be required to insure against, any loss incurred in connection with that deposit.

(c) The Security Agent may accept without enquiry, and shall not be obliged to investigate, such right and title as each of the Obligors may have to any of the Charged Property and shall not be liable for or bound to require any Obligor to remedy any defect in its right or title.

(d) The Security Agent may refrain from doing anything which in its opinion will or may be contrary to any relevant law, directive or regulation of any jurisdiction which would or might otherwise render it liable to any person, and the Security Agent may do anything which is, in its opinion, necessary to comply with any such law, directive or regulation.

26.24 Delegation and Additional Trustees

(a) The Security Agent may at any time delegate by power of attorney or otherwise to any person for any period, all or any of the rights, powers and discretions vested in it by any of the Finance Documents and such delegation may be made upon such terms and conditions (including the power to sub-delegate) and subject to such restrictions as the Security Agent may think fit in the interest of the Finance Parties and it shall not be bound to supervise, or be in any way responsible for any loss incurred by reason of any misconduct or default on the part of any such delegate or sub-delegate; and

(b) The Security Agent may at any time appoint (and subsequently remove) any person to act as a separate trustee or as a co-trustee jointly with it (a) if it considers such appointment to be in the interests of the Finance Parties or (b) for the purposes of conforming to any legal requirements, restrictions or conditions which the Security Agent deems to be relevant or (c) for obtaining or enforcing any judgement in any jurisdiction, and the Security Agent shall give prior notice to the Obligors’ Agent and the Agent of any such appointment. Any person so appointed (subject to the terms of this Agreement) shall have such rights, powers and discretions (not exceeding those conferred on the Security Agent by this Agreement) and such duties and obligations as are conferred or imposed by the instrument of appointment. The remuneration the Security Agent may pay to any such person, and any costs and expenses incurred by such person in performing its functions pursuant to that appointment shall, for the purposes of this Agreement, be treated as costs and expenses incurred by the Security Agent.

27. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE FINANCE PARTIES

No provision of this Agreement will:

(a) interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

- 127 -

(b) oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim; or

(c) oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.

28. SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

28.1 Payments to Lenders

If a Finance Party (a “Recovering Finance Party”) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 29 (Payment mechanics) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

(a) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery, to the Agent;

(b) the Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 29 (Payment mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

(c) the Recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent an amount (the “Sharing Payment”) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made, in accordance with Clause 29.5 (Partial payments).

28.2 Redistribution of payments

The Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) in accordance with Clause 29.5 (Partial payments).

28.3 Recovering Lender’s rights

(a) On a distribution by the Agent under Clause 28.2 (Redistribution of payments), the Recovering Finance Party will be subrogated to the rights of the Finance Parties which have shared in the redistribution.

(b) If and to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on its rights under paragraph (a) above, the relevant Obligor shall be liable to the Recovering Finance Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.

28.4 Reversal of redistribution

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 28.2 (Redistribution of payments) shall, upon request of the Agent, pay to the Agent for account of that Recovering Finance Party an

- 128 -

amount equal to 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

(b) that Recovering Finance Party’s rights of subrogation in respect of any reimbursement shall be cancelled and the relevant Obligor will be liable to the reimbursing Finance Party for the amount so reimbursed.

28.5 Exceptions

(a) This Clause 28 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the relevant Obligor.

(b) A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:

(i) it notified the other Finance Parties of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

(ii) the other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice or did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

(c) This Clause 28 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is a Bilateral Bank or a Hedging Bank and the amounts recovered are amounts which are owing under a Bilateral Facility or, as the case may be, a Hedging Agreement and are received at a time when no notice has been served by the Agent under Clause 23.18 (Acceleration).

29.2 Distributions by the Agent

Each payment received by the Agent under the Finance Documents for another Party shall, subject to Clause 29.3 (Distributions to an Obligor) and Clause 29.4 (Clawback) be made available by the 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 Agent by not less than five Business Days’ notice with a bank in the principal financial centre of the country of that currency (or, in relation to euro, in the principal financial centre of a Participating Member State or London).

29.3 Distributions to an Obligor

The Agent may (with the consent of the Obligor or in accordance with Clause 30 (Set-off)) apply any amount received by it for that Obligor in or towards payment (on the date and in the currency and funds of receipt) of any amount due from that Obligor under the Finance Documents or in or towards purchase of any amount of any currency to be so applied.

29.4 Clawback

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

payable by an Obligor under the Finance Documents, the Agent shall apply that payment towards the obligations of that Obligor under the Finance Documents in the following order:

(iv) fourthly, in or towards payment pro rata of any other sum due but unpaid under the Finance Documents,

provided that the amount applied by the Agent in respect of the obligations of the Bilateral Borrowers incorporated in the U.S. shall not exceed the aggregate amount received by the Agent from, or in respect of the assets of, the Obligors incorporated in the U.S.

- 131 -

(a) If at any time after the delivery of a notice by the Agent under Clause 23.18 (Acceleration) any Relevant Bilateral Bank makes a Recovery in respect of any sum owed by the relevant Bilateral Borrower whether directly or by set-off or by any other means which, if such sum had been recovered by the Relevant Bilateral Bank from an Obligor, would have fallen to be dealt with under Clause 29.11 (Application of Proceeds by Security Agent) then:

(i) such Relevant Bilateral Bank will notify details of such Recovery to the Security Agent within 3 Business Days;

(ii) the Security Agent will then determine in good faith the amount by which such Recovery exceeds the amount which such Relevant Bilateral Bank would have received had such Recovery been affected by the Security Agent from an Obligor pursuant to the Security Documents and applied as provided in Clause 29.11 (Application of Proceeds by Security Agent);

(iii) such Relevant Bilateral Bank will pay an amount (the “Equalisation Sharing Payment”) equal to the excess to the Security Agent, retaining the balance in pro tanto satisfaction of the amount due to it;

SCHEDULE 4

MANDATORY COST FORMULAE

1. The Mandatory Cost is an addition to the interest rate to compensate Lenders for the cost of compliance with (a) the requirements of the Bank of England and/or the Financial Services Authority (or, in either case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) or (b) the requirements of the European Central Bank or (c) the requirements of the Swiss National Bank and / or FINMA.

2. On the first day of each Interest Period (or as soon as possible thereafter) the Agent shall calculate, as a percentage rate, a rate (the “Additional Cost Rate”) for each Lender, in accordance with the paragraphs set out below. The Mandatory Cost will be calculated by the Agent as a weighted average of the Lenders’ Additional Cost Rates (weighted in proportion to the percentage participation of each Lender in the relevant Loan) and will be expressed as a percentage rate per annum.

3. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in a Participating Member State or in Switzerland will be the percentage notified by that Lender to the Agent. This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank and / or the Swiss National Bank and / or FINMA in respect of Loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Agent as follows:

(a) in relation to a sterling Loan:

(b) in relation to a Loan in any currency other than sterling:

Where:

A is the percentage of Eligible Liabilities (assuming these to be in excess of any stated minimum) which that Lender is from time to time required to maintain as an interest free cash ratio deposit with the Bank of England to comply with cash ratio requirements.

B is the percentage rate of interest (excluding the Margin and the Mandatory Cost and, if the Loan is an Unpaid Sum, the additional rate of interest specified in paragraph (a) of Clause 9.3 (Default interest)) payable for the relevant Interest Period on the Loan.

- 156 -

C is the percentage (if any) of Eligible Liabilities which that Lender is required from time to time to maintain as interest bearing Special Deposits with the Bank of England.

D is the percentage rate per annum payable by the Bank of England to the Agent on interest bearing Special Deposits.

E is designed to compensate Lenders for amounts payable under the Fees Rules and is calculated by the Agent as being the average of the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Agent pursuant to paragraph 7 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) “Eligible Liabilities” and “Special Deposits” have the meanings given to them from time to time under or pursuant to the Bank of England Act 1998 or (as may be appropriate) by the Bank of England;

(b) “Fees Rules” means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(c) “Fee Tariffs” means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate); and

(d) “Tariff Base” has the meaning given to it in, and will be calculated in accordance with, the Fees Rules.

6. In application of the above formulae, A, B, C and D will be included in the formulae as percentages (i.e. 5 per cent. will be included in the formula as 5 and not as 0.05). A negative result obtained by subtracting D from B shall be taken as zero. The resulting figures shall be rounded to four decimal places.

7. If requested by the Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

8. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which it becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b) any other information that the Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

- 157 -

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

9. The percentages of each Lender for the purpose of A and C above and the rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 7 and 8 above and on the assumption that, unless a Lender notifies the Agent to the contrary, each Lender’s obligations in relation to cash ratio deposits and Special Deposits are the same as those of a typical bank from its jurisdiction of incorporation with a Facility Office in the same jurisdiction as its Facility Office.

10. The Agent shall have no liability to any person if such determination results in an Additional Cost Rate which over or under compensates any Lender and shall be entitled to assume that the information provided by any Lender or Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above is true and correct in all respects.

11. The Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Cost to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Lender and each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 7 and 8 above.

12. Any determination by the Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

13. The Agent may from time to time, after consultation with the Parent and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank or the Swiss National Bank and / or FINMA (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of their functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These are the Terms and Conditions applicable to the transfer certificate including the Schedule thereto (the “Transfer Certificate”) to which they are annexed.

In these Terms and Conditions words and expressions shall (unless otherwise expressly defined herein) bear the meaning given to them in the Transfer Certificate, the Credit Agreement or the Sale Agreement.

2. Transfer

The Bank requests the Transferee to accept and procure the transfer by novation of all or a part (as applicable) of such participation of the Bank under the Credit Agreement as is set out in the relevant part of the Transfer Certificate under the heading “Participation Transferred” (the “Purchased Assets”) by counter-signing and delivering the Transfer Certificate to the Agent at its address for the service of notice specified in the Credit Agreement. On the Transfer Date the Transferee shall pay to the Bank the Settlement Amount as specified in the pricing letter between the Bank and the Transferee dated the date of the Transfer Certificate (adjusted, if applicable, in accordance with the Sale Agreement) and completion of the transfer will take place.

3. Effectiveness of Transfer

The Transferee hereby requests the Agent to accept the Transfer Certificate as being delivered to the Agent pursuant to and for the purposes of the Credit Agreement so as to take effect in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement on the Transfer Date or on such later date as may be determined in accordance with the terms thereof.

4. Transferee’s Undertaking

The Transferee hereby undertakes with the Agent and the Bank and each of the other parties to the Credit Documentation that it will perform in accordance with its terms all those obligations which by the terms thereof will be assumed by it after delivery of the Transfer Certificate to the Agent and satisfaction of the conditions (if any) subject to which the Transfer Certificate is to take effect.

5. Payments

(1) Place

All payments by either party to the other under the Transfer Certificate shall be made to the Receiving Account of that other party. Each party may designate a different account as its Receiving Account for payment by giving the other not less than five Business Days notice before the due date for payment.

- 163 -

(2) Funds

Payments under the Transfer Certificate shall be made in the currency in which the amount is denominated for value on the due date at such times and in such funds as are customary at the time for settlement of transactions in that currency.

6. The Agent

The Agent shall not be required to concern itself with the Sale Agreement and may rely on the Transfer Certificate without taking account of the provisions of such agreement.

7. Assignment of Rights

The Transfer Certificate shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of each party and its successors and permitted assigns provided that neither party may assign or transfer its rights thereunder without the prior written consent of the other party.

8. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

The Transfer Certificate (including, without limitation, these Terms and Conditions) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England, and the parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts.

Each party irrevocably appoints the person described as process agent (if any) specified in the Sale Agreement to receive on its behalf service of any action, suit or other proceedings in connection with the Transfer Certificate. If any person appointed as process agent ceases to act for any reason the appointing party shall notify the other party and shall promptly appoint another person incorporated within England and Wales to act as its process agent.
