The amount payable by a Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause ‎12 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

12.4
The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 12 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause ‎12, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 12 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or the Lender) including:
(a)
any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;

11

 


 

(b)
the release of any other Obligor or any other person under the terms of any composition or arrangement with any creditor of any member of the Group;

(d)
any incapacity or lack of power, authority or legal personality of or dissolution or change in the members or status of an Obligor or any other person;
(e)
any amendment, novation, supplement, extension, restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of a Finance Document or any other document or security including, without limitation, any change in the purpose of, any extension of or increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;
(f)
any unenforceability, illegality or invalidity of any obligation of any person under any Finance Document or any other document or security; or
(g)
any insolvency or similar proceedings.
12.5
Without prejudice to the generality of Clause ‎12.4 above, each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental and of whatsoever nature and whether or not more onerous) variation, increase, extension or addition of or to any of the Finance Documents and/or any facility or amount made available under any of the Finance Documents for the purposes of or in connection with any of the following: business acquisitions of any nature; increasing working capital; enabling investor distributions to be made; carrying out restructurings; refinancing existing facilities; refinancing any other financial indebtedness; making facilities available to new borrowers; any other variation or extension of the purposes for which any such facility or amount might be made available from time to time; and any fees, costs and/or expenses associated with any of the foregoing.
12.6
Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) to proceed against or enforce any other rights or security or claim payment from any person before claiming from that Guarantor under this Clause 12. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.
12.7
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full, the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) may:
(a)
refrain from applying or enforcing any other moneys, security or rights held or received by the Lender (or any trustee or agent on its behalf) in respect of those amounts, or apply and enforce the same in such manner and order as it sees fit (whether against those amounts or otherwise) and no Guarantor shall be entitled to the benefit of the same; and
(b)
hold in an interest-bearing suspense account any moneys received from any Guarantor or on account of any Guarantor's liability under this Clause 12.
12.8
Until all amounts which may be or become payable by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents have been irrevocably paid in full and unless the Lender otherwise

12

 


 

directs, no Guarantor will exercise any rights which it may have by reason of performance by it of its obligations under the Finance Documents or by reason of any amount being payable, or liability arising, under this Clause 12:
(a)
to be indemnified by an Obligor;
(b)
to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;
(c)
to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation or otherwise) of any rights of the Lender under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by the Lender;
(d)
to bring legal or other proceedings for an order requiring any Obligor to make any payment, or perform any obligation, in respect of which any Guarantor has given a guarantee, undertaking or indemnity under Clause ‎12.1 above;
(e)
to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or
(f)
to claim or prove as a creditor of any Obligor in competition with the Lender.
12.9
If a Guarantor receives any benefit, payment or distribution in relation to such rights it shall hold that benefit, payment or distribution to the extent necessary to enable all amounts which may be or become payable to the Lender by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for the Lender and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Lender or as the Lender may direct.
12.10
This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by the Lender.
12.11
Without limiting any specific exemptions set out below:
(a)
no Obligor's obligations and liabilities under the Finance Documents (including under this Clause ‎12) will extend to include any obligation or liability; and
(b)
no Security granted by an Obligor will secure any obligations under this Clause 12,

if to do so would result in this guarantee or indemnity being illegal, in breach of law or regulation or constituting unlawful financial assistance in respect of the acquisition of shares in itself or its Holding Company insofar as applicable to that Guarantor.

12.12
This guarantee does not apply to any liability to the extent that it would result in this guarantee constituting unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of sections 678 or 679 of the Companies Act 2006 or any similar provision under the laws of any other applicable jurisdiction.
12.13
A Guarantor's obligations will be subject to any limitation on the amount guaranteed which is contained in the Accession Deed (if applicable) by which that Guarantor becomes a Guarantor or in any other Finance Document.
13.
PAYMENTS
13.1
If any Final Maturity Date falls on a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be deemed to occur on the next following Business Day; provided that interest will continue to accrue and be

13

 


 

payable until the occurrence of the Final Maturity Date as so extended. If any other payment made under the Finance Documents falls due on a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be paid on the next following Business Day in the same Month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).
13.2
Subject to Clause 13.3 below, all payments made by the Obligors to the Lender under the Finance Documents shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and without any deduction to the bank account notified by the Lender to W3C for this purpose from time to time.
13.3
If an Obligor makes any payment hereunder in respect of which it is required by law to make any deduction or withholding, it shall pay such additional amounts to the Lender to ensure receipt by the Lender of the full amount that the Lender would have received but for such deduction or withholding.
14.
INDEMNITY
14.1
Subject to Clause 14.3, the Obligors will, within three Business Days of demand by the Lender, indemnify the Lender against any cost, expense, loss, Tax or liability incurred by it as a result of:
(a)
the occurrence of any Event of Default;
(b)
a failure by an Obligor to pay any amount due under a Finance Document on its due date;
(c)
funding, or making arrangements to fund, its participation in a Utilisation requested by a Borrower in a Utilisation Notice but not made by reason of the operation of any one or more of the provisions of this Agreement (other than by reason of default or negligence by the Lender); or
(d)
a Utilisation (or part of a Utilisation) not being prepaid in accordance with a notice of prepayment given by a Borrower.
14.2
Subject to Clause 14.3, the Obligors shall within 10 business days of written demand (together with reasonably detailed information supporting such demand) indemnify the Lender and each of its directors, officers employees and agents (each an “Indemnified Person”) against any cost, expense, loss or liability (including without limitation legal fees of one firm of counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for all Indemnified Persons (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnified Person affected by such conflict informs the Obligors of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, of one additional firm of counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for all such similarly affected Indemnified Persons)) incurred by or awarded against that Indemnified Person in each case arising out of or in connection with any action, claim, investigation or proceeding commenced or threatened (including, without limitation, any action, claim, investigation or proceeding to preserve or enforce rights) in relation to the Finance Documents and/or the use of proceeds of the Facilities provided that the Obligors will not be liable under this Clause ‎14.2 incurred or awarded against an Indemnified Person to the extent that cost, expense, loss or liability resulted from (i) any breach by that Indemnified Person of any material provision of any Finance Document or any document referred to therein or any confidentiality undertaking given by that Indemnified Person, (ii) the fraud, gross negligence or wilful misconduct of that Indemnified Person or (iii) any disputes solely among the Indemnified Persons (or related to any such dispute) and not arising out of any act or omission by the Obligors. In addition, the Obligors will not be responsible or liable to any person for indirect or consequential damages or losses or any costs or expenses incurred in connection with the arrangement of the Facilities unless they were

14

 


 

pre-approved by the Obligors. Any Indemnified Person may rely on this Clause ‎14.2 subject (if not a party) to Clause ‎‎29 (Third Party Rights) and the provision of the Third Parties Act.
14.3
For the purposes of calculating the amount of any loss, cost, expense or liability suffered by the Lender or any Indemnified Person under this Clause 14, due account shall be taken of any amount it has recovered under the Acquisition Agreement (in its capacity as a party to the Acquisition Agreement) in respect of that loss, cost, expense or liability, so that the Lender is only entitled to be indemnified in respect of its actual unreimbursed loss, cost, expense or liability, and is not entitled to be compensated more than once for a particular loss, cost, expense or liability (even though the Lender may have the benefit of an indemnity under both the Finance Documents and the Acquisition Agreement).
14.4
The Obligors shall indemnify the Lender, within three (3) Business Days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Clause 14) payable or paid by the Lender or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental entity. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to an Obligor by the Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
15.
representations and warranties

Unless otherwise specified, each Obligor, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries, makes the representations and warranties set out in Schedule 2 (Representations) on the date of this Agreement, on the date of each Utilisation Notice, each Utilisation Date and at the first day of each Interest Period for a Loan.

(a)
cancel the Available Commitments, whereupon each such Available Commitment shall immediately be cancelled;
(b)
declare that all or part of that Loan, together with accrued interest, and all other amounts accrued or outstanding under the Finance Documents be immediately due and payable, whereupon they shall become immediately due and payable by the relevant Borrower(s);
(c)
declare that all or part of that Loan be payable on demand, whereupon it shall immediately become payable on demand by the Lender; and/or
(d)
exercise any or all of its rights, remedies, powers or discretions (including, without limitation, enforcement of security) under the Finance Documents.
18.
COSTS AND EXPENSES

The Obligors shall, within three Business Days of demand by the Lender, reimburse the Lender

15

 


 

for all costs and expenses (including legal fees, notarial fees, stamp, registration and other Taxes due) incurred by it in connection with the enforcement of any rights under the Finance Documents and any other documents referred to in them.

19.3
The Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Obligors, shall maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of any assignee pursuant to Clause 19.2 (an “Assignee Lender”), and the commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loan owing to, each Assignee Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Obligors and the Lender shall treat each Assignee Lender as a lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Obligors at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. If the Lender sells a participation, the Lender shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Obligors, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loan or other obligations under the Finance Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender or Assignee Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Finance Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and Section 1.163-5(b) of the Proposed United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

The Lender may, after the occurrence of an Event of Default which is continuing and in relation to which the Lender has issued a written notice to W3C in accordance with Clause 17 (Acceleration), set off any matured obligation due from an Obligor under the Finance Documents to the extent beneficially owned by the Lender against any matured obligation owed by the Lender to that Obligor, regardless of the place of payment, booking branch or currency of either obligation. If the obligations are in different currencies, the Lender may convert either obligation at a market rate of exchange in its usual course of business for the purpose of the set-off.

SCHEDULE 7
AGREED SECURITY PRINCIPLES

Schedule 7
Agreed Security Principles

 

Part 1
Agreed Security Principles

 

1.
Agreed Security Principles
(a)
The guarantees and security to be provided under the Finance Documents will be given in accordance with certain agreed security principles (the “Agreed Security Principles”). This Schedule identifies the Agreed Security Principles and addresses the manner in which the Agreed Security Principles will impact on or be determinant of the guarantees and security to be provided in relation to the Facilities.
(b)
The Agreed Security Principles embody a recognition by all Parties that there may be certain legal and practical difficulties in obtaining effective guarantees or security from all relevant members of the Group in every jurisdiction in which those members are located. In particular:
(i)
general statutory limitations, financial assistance, corporate benefit, capital maintenance, liquidity maintenance, fraudulent preference, “earnings stripping”, “controlled foreign corporation”, “thin capitalisation” rules, tax restrictions, retention of title claims and similar matters may limit the ability of a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security or may require that it be limited as to amount or otherwise and if so, the same shall be limited accordingly, provided that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable commercial endeavours to overcome such obstacle;
(ii)
certain general meeting, supervisory board, works council or another external body's or person's consent (whether in the form of a positive consent, the absence of any objection or negative advice or any other relevant equivalent) may be required to enable a member of the Group to provide a guarantee or security and no member of the Group shall be required to provide any such guarantee and/or security unless that consent has been received, provided that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable commercial endeavours to obtain the necessary consent (in each case if the Lender, taking into account W3C’s view on any potential impact on relationships with third parties, reasonably requests W3C to do so);
(iii)
members of the Group will not be required to give guarantees or enter into security documents if (or to the extent) it is not within the legal capacity of the relevant members of the Group or if the same would conflict with the fiduciary duties of any directors, officers or other legal representatives or contravene any legal prohibition, contractual restriction or regulatory condition or have the potential to result in a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any director, officer or other legal representative of any member of the Group, provided that the relevant member of the Group shall use reasonable endeavours to overcome any such obstacle;
(iv)
a key factor in determining whether or not a guarantee or security shall be taken is the applicable cost (including adverse effects on interest deductibility, stamp

40

 


 

duty, registration taxes, regulatory costs and notarial costs) which shall not be disproportionate to the benefit to the Lender of obtaining such guarantee or security;
(v)
where there is material incremental cost involved in creating security over all assets owned by an Obligor in a particular category, regard shall be had to the principle stated in paragraph (iv) above which shall apply and, where such security is to be given at all in light of the Agreed Security Principles, only the material assets in that category shall be subject to security;
(vi)
having regard to the principle stated in paragraph (iv) above, W3C and the Lender shall discuss in good faith (having regard to customary practice in the applicable jurisdictions) with a view to determining whether certain security might be provided by the relevant Obligor granting a promise to pledge in favour of the Lender coupled with an irrevocable power of attorney to the Lender as opposed to a definitive legal mortgage or pledge over the relevant asset;
(vii)
it is expressly acknowledged that it may be either impossible or impractical to create security over certain categories of assets in which event security will not be taken over such assets;
(viii)
any assets subject to contracts, leases, licenses or other arrangements with a third party which prevent those assets from being charged (or assets which, if charged, would give a third party the right to terminate or otherwise amend any rights, benefits and/or obligations of the Group in respect of those assets or require any member of the Group to take any action materially adverse to the interests of the Group or any member thereof) will be excluded from any relevant security document provided that reasonable commercial endeavours to obtain consent to charging any such assets (where otherwise prohibited) shall be used by the Group if the Lender reasonably determines the relevant asset is material and W3C is satisfied that such endeavours will not involve placing commercial relationships with third parties in jeopardy, but unless prohibited this shall not prevent security being given over any receipt or recovery under such contract, lease or licence;
(ix)
the giving of a guarantee, the granting of security or the perfection of the security granted will not be required if it would have a material adverse effect on the ability of the relevant member of the Group to conduct its operations and business in the ordinary course as otherwise permitted by the Finance Documents (including by way of imposing any restriction or practical limitation on the ability of the Group to enter into leasing, vendor financing, maintenance, insurance or similar or equivalent arrangements otherwise permitted by the terms of this Agreement) and any requirement under the Agreed Security Principles to seek consent of any person or take or not take any other action shall be subject to this paragraph (ix);
(x)
guarantees and security will be limited so that the aggregate of notarial costs and all registration and like taxes relating to the provision of security shall not exceed an amount to be agreed between the Lender and W3C;
(xi)
security will not be required over any assets which are (or which are to become) subject to any Security in favour of a third party which is permitted by this Agreement and such assets shall be excluded from the relevant Transaction Security Document;

41

 


 

(xii)
guarantees and security will not be required from or over, or over the assets of, any joint venture or similar arrangement, or any member of the Group (other than the Company) that is not wholly-owned by another member of the Group (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any direct or indirect Subsidiary of such member of the Group that is not wholly-owned by another member of the Group) (but the shares or other ownership interest of that entity will be required to be pledged subject to the other provisions of these Agreed Security Principles);
(xiii)
no security shall be granted over any cash:
(A)
required to be held in order to meet minimum regulatory requirements; and/or
(B)
required to be held in trust accounts for the benefit of end merchants,

or otherwise subject to similar or equivalent arrangements or restrictions;

(xiv)
no security will be required to be granted over any account:
(A)
which is or becomes subject to any cash pooling or similar or equivalent arrangement;
(B)
which is designated (or is to be designated) at any time as a collections or similar or equivalent account in connection with any factoring, sale or discounting transaction, any other receivables, bills of exchange and/or inventory based financing arrangement or any other similar or equivalent transaction or arrangement; or
(C)
which is designated at any time as a cash collateral or similar or equivalent account.
2.
Terms of Security Documents

Unless otherwise agreed by W3C and the Lender, the following principles will be reflected in the terms of any security taken in connection with the Facilities:

(a)
security will not be enforceable until an Acceleration Event has occurred and is continuing;
(b)
notification of receivables security to debtors which are not members of the Group will only be given if an Acceleration Event is continuing;
(c)
notification of any security interest over insurance policies will only be served on any insurer of the Group assets if an Acceleration Event is continuing;
(d)
the security documents should only operate to create security rather than to impose new commercial obligations; accordingly (i) they should not contain additional representations, undertakings or indemnities (including, without limitation in respect of insurance, information, maintenance or protection of assets or the payment of costs) unless these are the same as or consistent with those contained in this Agreement and are required for the creation or perfection of the security and (ii) they should not operate so as to prevent any transaction not otherwise prohibited under this Agreement;

42

 


 

(e)
in respect of the share pledges and pledges of intra-group receivables, unless an Acceleration Event is continuing, the pledgors will be permitted to retain and to exercise voting rights (for the avoidance of doubt, without the consent of the Lender) to any shares pledged by them in any manner not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement and the pledgors will be permitted to receive dividends and other payments on or in respect of pledged shares and payment of intra-group receivables and retain the proceeds and/or use the proceeds for any other purpose not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement;
(f)
the Lender shall not be able to exercise any power of attorney granted to them under the terms of the Finance Documents prior to the occurrence of an Acceleration Event or breach of a further assurances obligation which is continuing;
(g)
no Obligor shall be required to perfect the security granted under any US law governed Transaction Security Document by any means other than by (i) filings pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code of the relevant state(s) and (ii) filings approved by United States federal government offices with respect to registered intellectual property;
(h)
no fixed security will be granted over leasehold interests, fee owned real property, motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title, letter of credit rights (other than to the extent such rights can be perfected by filing a UCC-1) or commercial tort claims;
(i)
no fixed security will be taken over parts, stock, moveable plant, equipment or receivables if it would require labeling, segregation or periodic listing or specification of such parts, stock, moveable plant, equipment or receivables;
(j)
there will be no obligation to hold or pay cash, receivables or Virtual Currency into a particular account until the occurrence of an Acceleration Event and there shall be no requirement to enter into any account control agreement (or similar arrangement) with respect to any Deposit Account (as defined in the Transaction Security Agreement) that constitutes an Excluded Account (as so defined); each security document shall contain the following provision (subject to any changes agreed or required by W3C):

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this security agreement, the terms of this security agreement shall not operate or be construed so as to prohibit or restrict any transaction, matter or other step not prohibited by the Finance Documents (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any person dealing in any manner whatsoever in relation to any asset (including all rights, claims, benefits, proceeds and documentation, and contractual counterparties in relation thereto) the subject of (or expressed to be the subject of) this security agreement) and the Lender shall promptly enter into such documentation and/or take such other action as is required by the [security grantor] in order to facilitate any such transaction, matter or other step, including by way of executing any confirmation, consent to dealing, release or other similar or equivalent document.”; and

(k)
any grantor or chargor of security which is (i) a natural person; or (ii) a third party security provider, shall only be required to provide Security on a limited recourse basis. Each security document creating limited recourse Security shall contain the following provision :

Notwithstanding any other provision of this security agreement, the [security grantor] and the Lender agree that: (a) the sole recourse of the Lender to the [security grantor] under this security agreement is to its interest in the [charged property]; and (b) the liability of the [security grantor] to the Lender pursuant to or otherwise in connection

43

 


 

with this security agreement shall be:(i) limited in aggregate to an amount equal to the proceeds of realisation of the [charged property]; and (ii) satisfied only from the proceeds of sale or other disposal or realisation of the [charged property] pursuant to this security agreement.”.
