3.	Clause 5. (a): The Loan shall be repaid by the Borrower in full (bullet payment) on June 11^th, 2029 (the “Repayment Date”).

4.	Clause 6. (a): The Borrower will pay interest on the Loan at a rate determined by the Lender to be the aggregate of:

i. 2.50 per cent per annum until 16 May 2024

ii. 4.25 per cent per annum from 16 May 2024 until the Repayment Date

iii. 0.55 per cent per annum Corporate Guarantee Spread effective until the Repayment Date, (such rate the “Lending Rate”).

Clause 6. (b): Interest will accrue from day to day on the outstanding amount of the Loan and be payable in arrears on the last day of each successive period (each an “Interest Period”). The first Interest Period is expiring on 16 May 2024 and the second Interest Period will be 16 May 2024 through 11 June 2024. Each subsequent Interest Period commences at the end of the preceding one and will be for six months, namely 11 December 2024, 11 June 2025, 11 December 2025, 11 June 2026, 11 December 2026, 11 June 2027, 10 December 2027, 9 June 2028, 11 December 2028, 11 June 2029. Interest accrued to the date on which the Loan is prepaid or repaid will be paid on the prepayment or repayment date.

Interest for all interest periods is calculated as follows: the actual number of days in the period from and including the date from which interest begins to accrue (the “Accrual Date”) to but excluding the date on which it falls due divided by (b) two times the actual number of days from and including the Accrual Date to but excluding the next following interest payment date.

6.	Clause 7 .: The Borrower will pay an amount of EUR 423,500.00 as Arrangement Fees to the Lender, not later than one month after the date of this Fourth Amendment.

Clause 8. (a): All payments made by the Borrower are to be made in immediately available cleared funds, in the relevant currency and for value on the due date to a designated account, such account to have been notified in writing to the other party at least three Business Days in advance of the relevant payment. Unless the Lender advises the Borrower in writing otherwise, the account into which the Borrower must make all payments to the Lender (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payments of interest) is its account with IBAN number FR7630056000280028014071955with HSBC France (SWIFT-BIC: ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇) or such other account as the Lender may notify to the Borrower.

Any capitalized terms used in this Fourth Amendment but not otherwise defined herein will have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Agreement and in the Previous Amendments. All terms of the Agreement and Previous Amendments shall remain in full force and effect except to the extent modified by this Fourth Amendment.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Fourth Amendment as of the day and year first above written.
