appropriate VAT invoice to such party stating that the amount is charged in respect of a supply thatis subject to VAT but that the reverse charge procedure applies).(ii) If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Recipient (the“Supplier”) to any other Recipient (as used in this section, the “Supply Recipient”) under a LoanDocument, and any Party other than the Supply Recipient (the “Relevant Party”) is required by theterms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for that supply to theSupplier (rather than being required to reimburse or indemnify the Supply Recipient in respect ofthat consideration):(A) (where the Supplier is the person required to account to the relevant taxauthority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must also pay to the Supplier (at the same timeas paying that amount) an additional amount equal to the amount of the VAT. TheSupply Recipient must (where this paragraph (A) applies) promptly pay to the RelevantParty an amount equal to any credit or repayment the Supply Recipient receives from therelevant tax authority which the Supply Recipient reasonably determines relates to theVAT chargeable on that supply; and(B) (where the Supply Recipient is the person required to account to therelevant tax authority for the VAT) the Relevant Party must promptly, following demandfrom the Supply Recipient, pay to the Supply Recipient an amount equal to the VATchargeable on that supply but only to the extent that the Supply Recipient reasonablydetermines that it is not entitled to credit or repayment from the relevant tax authority inrespect of that VAT.(iii) Where a Loan Document requires any Party to reimburse or indemnify a Recipientfor any cost or expense, that Party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Recipientfor any VAT incurred in respect of the costs or expenses, save to the extent that such Recipientreasonably determines that neither it nor any group of which it is a member for VAT purposes isentitled to credit or receive repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.(iv) Any reference in this clause Section 2.14(h) to any Party shall, at any time whensuch party is treated as a member of a group or unity (or fiscal unity) for VAT purposes, include(where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the person who istreated a making the supply or (as appropriate) receiving the supply under the grouping rules (asprovided for in Article 11 of the Council Directive 2006/112/EC (or as implemented by the relevantmember state of the European Union or any other similar provision in any jurisdiction which is not amember state of the European Union) (including, for the avoidance of doubt the representativemember of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning asin the Value Added Tax Act 1994)) so that a reference to a party shall be construed as a reference tothat Party or the relevant group or unity (or fiscal unity) of which that party is a member for VATpurposes at the relevant time or the relevant member (or head) of that group or unity (or fiscal unity)at the relevant time (as the case may be).In relation to any supply made by a Recipient to any party under a Loan Document, if reasonablyrequested by such Recipient, that Party must promptly provide such Recipient with details of that party’sVAT registration and such other information as is reasonably requested in connection with suchRecipient’s VAT reporting requirements in relation to such supply.-77-

 
(i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercisedin good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant tothis Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shallpay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnitypayments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of allout-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than anyinterest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifyingparty, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paidover pursuant to this Section 2.14(g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevantGovernmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to suchGovernmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.14(g), in no eventwill the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to thisSection 2.14(g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Taxposition than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and givingrise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnificationpayments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This Section 2.14(g) shallnot be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any otherinformation relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.(j) The agreements in this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement ofthe Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, theconsummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the expiration ortermination of the Revolving Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit or the termination ofthis Agreement or any provision hereof.(k) For purposes of this Section, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA and the term“Lender” shall include any Issuing Bank and any Swingline Lender.SECTION 2.15.

The Borrowers consent to the foregoing and agree, to the extent it may effectively doso under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangementsmay exercise against the Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation asfully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrowers prior tothe date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders that theBorrowers will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers havemade such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,distribute to the Lenders the amount due.
