Market Disruption

 

9.1

Market disruption

 

  (a)

If the Facility Agent determines that a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Funding Portion for any Interest Period, then it shall promptly notify the Initial Borrower and the Financiers, and the rate of interest on each Affected Financier’s participations in that Funding Portion for that Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (i)

the Margin; and

 

  (ii)

the rate notified to the Facility Agent by that Affected Financier as soon as practicable and in any event no later than the Business Day before interest is due to be paid in respect of that Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to that Affected Financier of funding its participation in that Funding Portion from whatever source or sources it may reasonably select.

 

  (b)

Each Affected Financer shall determine the rate notified by it under sub-paragraph (a)(ii) above in good faith. The rate so notified and any notification under paragraph (b) of the definition of Market Disruption Event, will be conclusive and binding on the parties in the absence of manifest error.

 

9.2

Alternative basis of interest or funding

 

  (a)

If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Initial Borrower so requires, the Facility Agent and the Initial 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.

 

  (b)

Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall only apply with the prior consent of all the Financiers and the Initial Borrower, and then shall be binding on all parties to this Agreement.

 

  (c)

The Facility Agent shall promptly inform the Initial Borrower and each Financier of any alternative basis agreed under this clause 9.2.

 

9.3

Agent’s role and confidentiality

  (b)

Each of the Facility Agent and the Initial Borrower shall keep confidential and not disclose to any other Financier or any other person except the Borrowers, any information relating to a Financier described in paragraph (a) above. The Facility Agent shall ensure that its officers and employees involved in performing its functions as Facility Agent keep that information confidential and do not disclose it or allow it to be available to any other person or office within the Facility Agent.

However, the Facility Agent, the Initial Borrower or its officers or employees may disclose such information:

 

  (i)

to the extent required by any applicable law or regulation; or

  (i)

the transaction may breach any laws or regulations in Australia or any other country binding on that Financier;

 

  (ii)

the transaction involves any person (natural, corporate or governmental) in a manner that would breach economic and trade sanctions imposed by Australia, the United States, the European Union or any country binding on that Financier; or

 

  (iii)

the transaction may directly or indirectly involve the proceeds of, or be applied for the purposes of, conduct which is unlawful in Australia or any other country and the transaction would breach or cause that Financier to breach any laws or regulations binding on that Financier.

 

  (b)

FATCA

 

  (a)

No additional amount is payable to a Financier under clause 3 (Payments), clause 9.1 (Increased costs) or clause 12.1 (Tax) of the Common Terms Deed Poll, if the obligation to do so is attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Transaction Party in respect of the Facility.

 

  (b)

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. Despite the terms of the Common Terms Deed Poll, if a Transaction Party is required to make a FATCA Deduction in respect of the Facility, the Transaction Party shall not be required to pay any additional amount in respect of that FATCA Deduction under clause 3 (Payments), clause 9.1 (Increased costs) or clause 12.1 (Tax) of the Common Terms Deed Poll.

 

  (c)

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 party to whom it is making the payment and, in addition, shall notify the Initial Borrower, the Facility Agent and the Financiers.

 

  (d)

Subject to paragraph (f) below, each party shall, within ten Business Days of a reasonable request by another party:

supply to that other party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable “passthru payment percentage” or other information required under the US Treasury Regulations or other official guidance including intergovernmental agreements) as that other party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other party’s compliance with FATCA.

 

page 11


Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (e)

If a party confirms to another party pursuant to paragraph (d)(i) 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.

 

  (f)

Paragraph (d) above shall not oblige any Financier or the Facility Agent to do anything which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

 

  (i)

any law or regulation;

 

  (ii)

any fiduciary duty; or

 

  (iii)

any duty of confidentiality.

 

  (g)

If a party fails to confirm its status or to supply forms, documentation or other information requested in accordance with paragraph (d) above (including where paragraph (f) above applies), then:

 

  (i)

if that party failed to confirm whether it is (and/or remains) a FATCA Exempt Party then such party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents as if it is not a FATCA Exempt Party; and

 

  (ii)

if that party failed to confirm its applicable “passthru payment percentage” then such party shall be treated for the purposes of the Finance Documents (and payments made under them) as if its applicable “passthru payment percentage” is 100%,

until (in each case) such time as the party in question provides the requested confirmation, forms, documentation or other information.

 

  (h)

If a Borrower is a US Tax Obligor, or where the Facility Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA require it, each Financier shall, within ten Business Days of:

  (iii)

the date a US Tax Obligor becomes a new Borrower under this Agreement; or

 

  (iv)

where the Borrower is not a US Tax Obligor, the date of a request from the Facility Agent

supply to the Facility Agent:

 

  (v)

a withholding certificate on Form W-8 or Form W-9 (or any successor form) (as applicable); or

 

  (vi)

any withholding statement and other documentation, authorisations and waivers as the Facility Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Financier under FATCA.

The Facility Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, documentation, authorisations and waivers it receives from a Financier pursuant to this paragraph (h) to the Initial Borrower and shall be entitled to rely on any such withholding certificate, withholding statement, documentation, authorisations and waivers provided without further verification. The Facility Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with this paragraph (h).

 

page 12


Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (i)

Each Financier agrees that if any withholding certificate, withholding statement, documentation, authorisations and waivers provided to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph (h) above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, it shall promptly update such withholding certificate, withholding statement, documentation, authorisations and waivers or promptly notify the Facility Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

their total face value amount does not exceed the outstanding principal amount of the Financier’s share of the Funding Portion (as notified by the Facility Agent under clause 5.1) and total interest payable to the Financier in respect of the Funding Portion; and

 

  (ii)

their maturity date is not later than the last day of the Interest Period for that Funding Portion,

Each Financier indemnifies each Borrower against any Loss which that Borrower suffers, incurs or is liable for in respect of that Borrower being a party to a Liquidity Bill in respect of that Financier.

 

  (e)

Nothing in clause 12(d) affects a Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement (including its obligations in relation to the payment of the Secured Moneys) which are absolute and unconditional obligations and not affected by any actual or contingent liability of any Financier to any Borrower under clause 12(d).

 

  (f)

If a Financier does not join in an action against a Transaction Party or does not agree to share in the costs of the action (having been given a reasonable opportunity to do so by the Financier bringing the action), it is not entitled to share in any amount recovered by the action until all the Financiers who did join in the action or agree to share the costs of the action have received in full all money payable to them under the Finance Documents.

 

17.16

17.18   Disenfranchisement for certain Debt Purchase Transactions

 

  (a)

For so long as any Borrower Affiliate beneficially owns a Commitment or is a party to a Debt Purchase Transaction:

 

  (i)

any Principal Outstanding in respect of that Commitment or Debt Purchase Transaction is taken to be zero for the purpose of determining who are the Majority Financiers for any approval, consent, waiver, amendment or other matter requiring a vote, instruction or direction by Financiers under the Finance Documents; and

 

  (ii)

that Borrower Affiliate and any other person with whom it has entered into a Debt Purchase Transaction will be taken not to be a Financier for the purposes of instructing the Facility Agent (unless, in the case of that other person, it is a Financier in respect of another Commitment).

 

  (b)

Each Financier must promptly notify the Facility Agent in writing if it knowingly enters into a Debt Purchase Transaction with a Borrower Affiliate, together with the amount of Commitment to which the Debt Purchase Transaction relates.

 

  (c)

Each Financier that is a Borrower Affiliate agrees that (unless the Facility Agent otherwise agrees):

 

  (i)

it is not entitled to receive the agenda or any minutes of, nor to attend or participate in, any meeting or conference call to which all Financiers or the Majority Financiers are invited to attend or participate in; and

 

  (ii)

it is not entitled to receive any report or other document prepared at the request of, or on the instructions of, the Facility Agent or one or more of the Financiers.

 

page 21


Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (d)

In this clause:

 

  (i)

Borrower Affiliate means:

 

  (A)

a Transaction Party and each member of the FOXTEL Group;

 

  (B)

a Related Body Corporate of any person described in paragraph (A) above;

 

  (C)

any entity, or the trustee of any trust or fund, which is managed or controlled by any person described in paragraph (A) or (B) above; and

 

  (D)

any partnership of which any person described in paragraph (A) or (B) above is a partner.

 

  (ii)

Debt Purchase Transaction means, in relation to a person, a transaction where that person:

 

  (A)

purchases by way of assignment or transfer; or

 

  (B)

enters into any sub-participation (or any agreement or arrangement having an economic substantially similar effect as a sub-participation) in respect of,

any Commitment or Principal Outstanding.

 

18

Facility Agent Dealings

Except where expressly provided otherwise:

 

  (a)

all correspondence under or in relation to the Finance Documents between a Financier on the one hand, and a Transaction Party on the other, will be addressed to the Facility Agent; and

 

  (b)

the Financiers and the Transaction Parties severally agree to deal with and through the Facility Agent in accordance with this Agreement.

 

19

Control Accounts

The accounts kept by the Facility Agent constitute sufficient evidence, unless proven wrong, of the amount at any time due from any Borrower under this Agreement.

 

20

Proportionate Sharing

 

20.1

Sharing

 

  (a)

Whenever a Financier (Financier A) receives or recovers any money in respect of any sum due from a Borrower under this Agreement in any way (including by set-off) except through distribution by the Facility Agent under this Agreement:

 

  (i)

Financier A will promptly notify the Facility Agent and pay an amount equal to the amount of that money to the Facility Agent (unless the Facility Agent directs otherwise); and

 

  (ii)

the Facility Agent will deal with the amount as if it were a payment by the Borrower on account of all sums then payable to the Financiers.

 

  (b)

Unless paragraph (c) applies:

 

  (i)

the payment or recovery will be taken to have been a payment for the account of the Facility Agent and not to Financier A for its own account, and the liability of that Borrower to Financier A will only be reduced to the extent of any distribution received by Financier A under paragraph (a)(ii); and

 

page 22


Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (ii)

(without limiting sub-paragraph (i)) each Borrower shall indemnify Financier A against a payment under paragraph (a)(i) to the extent that (despite sub-paragraph (i)) its liability has been discharged by the recovery or payment.

 

  (c)

Where:

 

  (i)

the money referred to in paragraph (a) was received or recovered otherwise than by payment (for example, set-off); and

 

  (ii)

that Borrower, or the person from whom the receipt or recovery is made, is insolvent at the time of the receipt or recovery, or at the time of the payment to the Facility Agent, or becomes insolvent as a result of the receipt, or recovery or the payment,

then the following will apply so that the Financiers have the same rights and obligations as if the money had been paid by that Borrower to the Facility Agent for the account of the Financiers and distributed accordingly:

 

  (iii)

each other Financier will assign to Financier A an amount of the debt owed by that Borrower to that Financier under the Finance Documents equal to the amount received by that Financier under paragraph (a);

 

  (iv)

Financier A will be entitled to all rights (including interest and voting rights) under the Finance Documents in respect of the debt so assigned; and

 

  (v)

that assignment will take effect automatically on payment of the distributed amount by the Facility Agent to the other Financier.

 

  (d)

If Financier A is required to disgorge or unwind all or part of the relevant recovery or payment then the other Financiers shall repay to the Facility Agent for the account of Financier A the amount necessary to ensure that all the Financiers share rateably in the amount of the recoveries or payments retained. Paragraphs (b) and (c) above apply only to the retained amount.

 

20.2

Arrangements with unrelated parties

This clause does not apply to receipts and recoveries by a Financier under arrangements (including credit derivatives and sub-participations) entered into by the Financier in good faith with parties unrelated to the Transaction Parties to cover some or all of its risk.

 

20.3

Unanticipated default

 

  (a)

The Facility Agent may assume that a party (the Payer) due to make a payment for the account of another party (the Recipient) makes that payment when due unless the Payer notifies the Facility Agent at least one Business Day before the due date that the Payer will not be making the payment.

 

  (b)

In reliance on that assumption, the Facility Agent may make available to the Recipient on the due date an amount equal to the assumed payment.

 

  (c)

If the Payer does not in fact make the assumed payment, the Recipient shall repay the Facility Agent the amount on demand. The Payer will still remain liable to make the assumed payment, but until the Recipient does repay the amount, the Payer’s liability will be to the Facility Agent in the Facility Agent’s own right.

 

page 23


Syndicated Revolving Facility Agreement   

 

  (d)

If the Payer is a Transaction Party any interest on the amount of the assumed payment accruing before recovery will belong to the Facility Agent. If the Payer is a Financier that Financier shall pay interest on the amount of the assumed payment at the rate determined by the Facility Agent, in line with its usual practice, for advances of similar duration to financial institutions of the standing of the Financier.

 

21

Governing law and jurisdiction

 

  (a)

This Agreement is governed by the laws of New South Wales.

 

  (b)

Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the non exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.

 

  (c)

Each Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives any objection to the venue of any legal process on the basis that the process has been brought in an inconvenient forum or those courts not having jurisdiction.

 

  (d)

Each Borrower irrevocably waives any immunity in respect of its obligations under this Agreement that it may acquire from the jurisdiction of any court or any legal process for any reason including the service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution or execution.

 

  (e)

A Finance Party may take proceedings in connection with the Finance Documents in any other court with jurisdiction or concurrent proceedings in any number of jurisdictions.

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts. All counterparts together will be taken to constitute one instrument.
