The determination of the extent to which a rate is "for a period equal in length" to an Interest Period shall disregard any inconsistency arising from the last day of that Interest Period being determined pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

Section, Clause and Schedule headings are for ease of reference only.

Unless a contrary indication appears, a term used in any other Finance Document or in any notice given under or in connection with any Finance Document has the same meaning in that Finance Document or notice as in this Agreement.

A Default (other than an Event of Default) is "continuing" if it has not been remedied or waived and an Event of Default is "continuing" if it has not been remedied or waived.

The consent of any person who is not a Party is not required to rescind or vary this Agreement at any time.

in the case of a Rollover Loan, no Event of Default is continuing or would result from the proposed Loan and, in the case of any other Loan, no Default is continuing or would result from the proposed Loan; and

the Repeating Representations to be made by the Borrower are true.

Each Utilisation Request is irrevocable and will not be regarded as having been duly completed unless:

the proposed Utilisation Date is a Business Day within the Availability Period;

the currency and amount of the Utilisation comply with Clause 5.3 (Currency and amount); and

the proposed Interest Period complies with Clause 9 (Interest Periods).

Only one Loan may be requested in each Utilisation Request.

The currency specified in a Utilisation Request must be dollars.

The amount of the proposed Loan must be an amount which is not more than the Available Commitment and which is a minimum of USD 2,000,000 or, if less, the Available Commitment.

The Borrower shall repay each Loan in dollars on the last day of its Interest Period.

Without prejudice to the Borrower's obligation under paragraph (a) above, if one or more Loans are to be made available to it:

on the same day that a maturing Loan is due to be repaid; and

in whole or in part for the purpose of refinancing the maturing Loan; and

if the amount of the maturing Loan exceeds the aggregate amount of the new Loans:

the Borrower will only be required to make a payment in an amount in dollars equal to that excess; and

the new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of the Lender's maturing Loan and the Lender will not be required to make a payment in respect of the new Loans; and

if the amount of the maturing Loan is equal to or less than the aggregate amount of the new Loans:

the Borrower will not be required to make a payment; and

the Lender will be required to make a payment in respect of the new Loans only to the extent that the new Loans exceeds the maturing Loan and the remainder of the new Loans shall be treated as having been made available and applied by the Borrower in or towards repayment of the maturing Loan.

the Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower upon becoming aware of that event;

upon the Lender notifying the Borrower, the Available Commitment of the Lender will be immediately cancelled; and

the Borrower shall repay the Loans on the last day of the Interest Period for each Loan occurring after the Lender has notified the Borrower or, if earlier, the date specified by the Lender in the notice delivered to the Borrower (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law) and the Commitment shall be cancelled in the amount of the participations repaid.

The Borrower shall promptly inform the Lender if a Change-of-Control Event has occurred or is likely to occur. At any time after the occurrence of a Change-of-Control Event, the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, cancel the Available Commitment and demand prepayment of the Loan, together with accrued interest and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under this Agreement.

In addition, if the Borrower has informed the Lender that a Change-of-Control Event is about to occur, or if the Lender has reasonable cause to believe that a Change-of-Control Event is about to occur, the Lender may request that the Borrower consults with it. Such consultation shall take place within 30 (thirty) days from the date of the Lender's request. After the earlier of (a) the lapse of 30 (thirty) days from the date of such request for consultation, and (b) upon the occurrence of the anticipated Change-of-Control Event the Lender may, by notice to the Borrower, cancel the Available Commitment and demand prepayment of the Loan, together with accrued interest and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under this Agreement.

The Borrower shall effect payment of the amount demanded on the date specified by the Lender, such date being a date falling not less than 30 (thirty) days from the date of the demand.

a "Change-of-Control Event" occurs if:

any person or group of persons acting in concert gains control of the Borrower or of the entity directly or ultimately controlling the Borrower;

the Borrower ceases to be the beneficial owner directly or indirectly, through wholly owned subsidiaries, of more than 50% (fifty per cent.) of the issue share capital of the French Subsidiary and the Italian Subsidiary;

"acting in concert" means acting together pursuant to an agreement or understanding (whether formal or informal); and

"control" means the power to direct the management and policies of an entity, whether through the ownership of voting capital by contract or otherwise.

If:

any sum payable to the Lender by the Borrower is required to be increased under paragraph (c) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up); or

the Lender claims indemnification from the Borrower under Clause 12.3 (Tax indemnity) or Clause 13.1 (Increased costs),

On receipt of a notice of cancellation referred to in paragraph (a) above, the Commitment of the Lender shall immediately be reduced to zero.

On the last day of each Interest Period which ends after the Borrower has given notice of cancellation under paragraph (a) above (or, if earlier, the date specified by the Borrower in that notice), the Borrower shall repay that Loan.

A prepayment made under Clause 7.4 (Voluntary prepayment of Loans) shall be applied in the following order:

first, in cancellation of Available Commitment; and

secondly, in prepayment of Utilisations and cancellation of the Commitment.

Subject to no Default continuing, the Borrower may elect that any prepayment under Clause 7.4 (Voluntary prepayment of Loans) be applied in prepayment of a Loan on the last day of the Interest Period relating to that Loan. If the Borrower makes that election then a proportion of the Loan equal to the amount of the relevant prepayment will be due and payable on the last day of its Interest Period.

Any notice of cancellation or prepayment given by any Party under this Clause 7 shall be irrevocable and, unless a contrary indication appears in this Agreement, shall specify the date or dates upon which the relevant cancellation or prepayment is to be made and the amount of that cancellation or prepayment.

Any prepayment under this Agreement shall be made together with accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, subject to any Breakage Costs, without premium or penalty.

Unless a contrary indication appears in this Agreement, any part of the Facility which is prepaid or repaid may be reborrowed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

The Borrower shall not repay or prepay all or any part of the Loans or cancel all or any part of the Commitment except at the times and in the manner expressly provided for in this Agreement.

No amount of the Commitment cancelled under this Agreement may be subsequently reinstated.

If all or part of the Loan is repaid or prepaid and is not available for redrawing (other than by operation of Clause 4.2 (Further conditions precedent)), an amount of the Commitment (equal to the amount which is repaid or prepaid) will be deemed to be cancelled on the date of repayment or prepayment.

Margin; and

LIBOR.

If the Borrower 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) at a rate which, subject to paragraph (b) below is 2 (two) per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would 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 Lender (acting reasonably). Any interest accruing under this Clause 8.3 shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Lender.

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

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

the rate of interest applying to the overdue amount during that first Interest Period shall be 2 (two) per cent. per annum higher than the rate which would have applied if the overdue amount had not become due.

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.

The Borrower may select an Interest Period for a Loan in the Utilisation Request for that Loan.

Subject to this Clause 9, the Borrower may select an Interest Period of 1, 3 or 6 Months or any other period agreed between the Borrower and the Lender.

An Interest Period for a Loan shall not extend beyond the Termination Date.

Each Interest Period for a Loan shall start on the Utilisation Date.

A Loan has one Interest Period only.

Unavailability of Screen Rate

Interpolated Screen Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for the Interest Period of a Loan, the applicable LIBOR shall be the Interpolated Screen Rate for a period equal in length to the Interest Period of that Loan.

Reference Bank Rate: If no Screen Rate is available for LIBOR for:

dollars; or

the Interest Period of a Loan and it is not possible to calculate the Interpolated Screen Rate,

Cost of funds: If paragraph (b) above applies but no Reference Bank Rate is available for dollars or the relevant Interest Period there shall be no LIBOR for that Loan and Clause 10.4 (Cost of funds) shall apply to that Loan for that Interest Period.

Subject to paragraph (b) below, if LIBOR is to be determined on the basis of a Reference Bank Rate but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by the Specified Time, the Reference Bank Rate shall be calculated on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

If at or about noon on the Quotation Day, none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a quotation, there shall be no Reference Bank Rate for the relevant Interest Period.

If this Clause 10.4 applies, the rate of interest on the relevant Loan for the relevant Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

the Margin; and

the rate notified by the Lender to the Borrower as soon as practicable and in any event within 5 (five) Business Days of the first day of that Interest Period (or, if earlier, on the date falling 10 (ten) Business Days before the date on which interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period), as reasonably determined by the Lender to be a suitable reference rate for its general lending activities (on an actual or notional basis) from whatever source it may reasonably select.

If this Clause 10.4 applies and the Lender or the Borrower so requires, the Lender and the Borrower 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.

Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (b) above shall, with the prior consent of the Lender and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties.

The Borrower shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Lender, pay to the Lender its Breakage Costs attributable to all or any part of a Loan or Unpaid Sum being paid by the Borrower on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for that Loan or Unpaid Sum.

The Lender shall, as soon as reasonably practicable after a demand by the Borrower, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Breakage Costs for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a fee computed at the rate of 25 per cent. of the Margin per annum on the Lender's Available Commitment for the Availability Period.

The accrued commitment fee is payable in arrears on the last day of each successive period of three Months which ends during the Availability Period, on the last day of the Availability Period and, if cancelled in full, on the cancelled amount of the Commitment at the time the cancellation is effective.

The Borrower shall pay to the Lender a utilisation fee computed at the rate of:

0.10 per cent. on the total outstanding principal amount of each Loan for each day on which the aggregate outstanding amount of all Loans is equal to or greater than 33 per cent. but less than or equal to 66 per cent. of the Commitment; and

0.20 per cent. on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan for each day on which the aggregate outstanding amount of all Loans is greater than 66 per cent. of the Commitment.

The accrued utilisation fee is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each successive period of three Months which ends during the Availability Period, on the last day of the Availability Period and, if cancelled in full, on the cancelled amount of the Commitment at the time the cancellation is effective.

In this Agreement:

a person:

which is a bank (as defined for the purpose of section 879 of the ITA) making an advance under a Finance Document and is within the charge to United Kingdom corporation tax as respects any payments of interest made in respect of that advance or would be within such charge as respects such payments apart from section 18A of the CTA; or

in respect of an advance made under a Finance Document by a person that was a bank (as defined for the purpose of section 879 of the ITA) at the time that that advance was made and within the charge to United Kingdom corporation tax as respects any payments of interest made in respect of that advance; or

a person which is otherwise entitled by law to receive interest payments under the Finance Documents without a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom.

Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 12 a reference to "determines" or "determined" means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

The Borrower shall make all payments to be made by it without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that it must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Lender accordingly.

If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by the Borrower, the amount of the payment due from it shall be increased to an amount which (after making any Tax Deduction) leaves an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required.

    A payment shall not be increased under paragraph (c) above by reason of a Tax Deduction on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom, if on the date on which the payment falls due the payment could have been made to the Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date the Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a lender under this Agreement (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority.

If the Borrower is required to make a Tax Deduction, it shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Borrower shall deliver to the Lender a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

The Borrower shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Lender) pay to the Lender if it is or will be subject to any liability, or required to make any payment, for or on account of Tax in relation to a sum received or receivable (or any sum deemed for the purposes of Tax to be received or receivable) under a Finance Document an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which the Lender determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax by the Lender in respect of a Finance Document.

Paragraph (a) above shall not apply:

with respect to any Tax assessed on the Lender:

under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Lender is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which the Lender is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Lender's Facility Office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up);

would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) but was not so compensated solely because the exclusion in paragraph (d) of Clause 12.2 (Tax gross-up) applied; or

relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.

If the Lender makes, or intends to make, a claim under paragraph (a) above shall promptly notify the Borrower of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim.

a Tax Credit is attributable to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, to that Tax Payment or to a Tax Deduction in consequence of which that Tax Payment was required; and

the Lender has obtained and utilised that Tax Credit,

All amounts expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by the Borrower to the Lender which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for any supply for VAT purposes are deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on that supply, and accordingly if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by the Lender to the Borrower under a Finance Document and the Lender is required to account to the relevant tax authority for the VAT, the Borrower must pay to the

Where a Finance Document requires the Borrower to reimburse or indemnify the Lender for any cost or expense, the Borrower shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) the Lender for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that the Lender reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

Any reference in this Clause 12.6 to either Party shall, at any time when such Party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term "representative member" to have the same meaning as in the Value Added Tax Act 1994).

supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with any other law, regulation, or exchange of information regime.

If a Party confirms to the other Party pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) above that it is a FATCA Exempt Party and it subsequently becomes aware that it is not or has ceased to be a FATCA Exempt Party, that Party shall notify that other Party reasonably promptly.

Paragraph (a) above shall not oblige the Lender to do anything, and paragraph (a)(iii) above shall not oblige the Borrower to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

any law or regulation;

any fiduciary duty; or

any duty of confidentiality.

If a Party fails to confirm whether or not it is a FATCA Exempt Party or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (a)(i) or (ii) above (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where paragraph (c) above applies), then such Party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments under them) as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party until such time as the Party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

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

Each Party shall promptly, upon becoming aware that it must make a FATCA Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of such FATCA Deduction), notify the other Party.

the rules for global systemically important banks contained in "Global systemically important banks: assessment methodology and the additional loss absorbency requirement - Rules text" published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in November 2011, as amended, supplemented or restated; and

attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party;

attributable to the wilful breach by the Lender or its Affiliates of any law or regulation.
