10. CHANGES TO THE CALCULATION OF INTEREST

10.1 Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 10.2, if JIBAR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by 12h00 on the Quotation Day, JIBAR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations provided by the remaining Reference Banks.

10.2 Market disruption

10.2.1 If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to a Loan for any Interest Period, then the Facility Agent shall advise the Borrower and the rate of interest on each Lender's share of that Loan for the Interest Period shall be the percentage rate per annum which is the sum of:

(a) the Margin; and

(b) the highest of the rates notified to the Facility Agent by the relevant Lender as soon as practicable and in any event 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 Lender of funding its participation in that Loan from whatever source(s) it may reasonably select.

10.2.2 In this Agreement Market Disruption Event means:

(a) at or about noon on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period the Screen Rate is not available and none or only one of the Reference Banks supplies a rate to the Facility Agent to determine JIBAR for the relevant Interest Period; or

(b) before close of business in Johannesburg on the Quotation Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Facility Agent receives notifications from one or more Lenders whose aggregate participations in the Senior Loans exceed 20.00 per cent. of aggregate principal amount of Loans outstanding under the Senior Facilities that:

(i) the cost to them of funding their participation in that Loan from whatever source they may reasonably select would be in excess of JIBAR;

(ii) the cost to it or them of obtaining matching deposits in the Johannesburg interbank market would be in excess of JIBAR for the relevant Interest Period; or

(iii) matching deposits will not be available to them in the Johannesburg interbank market in the ordinary course of business to fund their participation in that Loan for the relevant Interest Period.

10.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

10.3.1 Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 10.2, if a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Facility Agent or the Borrower so requires, the Facility Agent and the Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days, or such longer period as the Facility Agent may agree) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

10.3.2 Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to Clause 10.3.1 shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and the Borrower, be binding on all Parties.

11. BREAK COSTS AND BREAK GAINS

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

11.2 On the condition that no Default is then continuing, a Senior Facility Lender shall, within 10 Business Days of demand by the Borrower, pay to the Borrower the amount of any Break Gain attributable to all or any part of the participation of that Senior Facility Lender in a Loan being repaid or prepaid on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period for that Loan.

11.3 Each Lender shall provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Break Costs or Break Gains (as applicable) for any Interest Period in which they accrue.

Tax Credit means a credit against, relief or remission for, or repayment of any Tax;

Tax Deduction means a deduction or withholding for or on account of Tax from a payment under a Finance Document, other than a FATCA Deduction;

13.1.2 Unless a contrary indication appears, in this Clause 13 a reference to determines or determined means a determination made in the absolute discretion of the person making the determination.

13.2 Tax gross-up

13.2.1 Each Obligor shall make all payments to be made by it free and clear of and without any Tax Deduction, unless a Tax Deduction is required by law.

13.2.2 The Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that an Obligor must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Facility Agent accordingly. Similarly, a Lender shall notify the Facility Agent, as soon as reasonably practicable, on becoming so aware in respect of a payment payable to that Lender. If the Facility Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrower and that Obligor.

13.2.3 If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by an Obligor, the amount of the payment due from that Obligor 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.

13.2.4 If an Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that Obligor 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.

13.2.5 Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Facility Agent for the Finance Party entitled to the payment evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Finance Party that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

13.3 Tax indemnity

13.3.1 Each Obligor shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent) indemnify each Protected Party against, and shall pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which that Protected Party determines will be or has been (directly) suffered for or on account of Tax by that Protected Party in respect of a Finance Document.

13.3.2 Clause 13.3.1 shall not apply:

(a) with respect to any Tax assessed on a Finance Party: (A) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which that Finance Party is treated as resident for tax purposes or (B) under the law of the jurisdiction in which that Finance Party's facility office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by that Finance Party;

(b) to the extent a loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under Clause 13.2 (Tax gross-up) or relates to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party.

13.3.3 A Protected Party making, or intending to make a claim under Clause 13.3.1, shall notify the Facility Agent as soon as reasonably practicable of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall notify the Borrower or relevant Obligor of such claim.

13.3.4 A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under this Clause 13.3, notify the Facility Agent.

Subject to Clause 29 (Conduct of Business by the Finance Parties), if an Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Finance Party determines that:

13.4.1 a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part, or to that Tax Payment; and

13.4.2 that Finance Party has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

the Finance Party shall pay an amount to the Obligor, as soon as reasonably practicable, which that Finance Party determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the Obligor.

13.5 Stamp taxes

Each Obligor shall (within three Business Days of demand) indemnify each Finance Party against, and shall pay to the relevant Finance Party, any cost, loss or liability that the relevant Finance Party incurs in relation to all stamp duty, registration and other similar Taxes payable in respect of any Finance Document.

13.6 Value added tax

13.6.1 All amounts set out or expressed to be payable under a Finance Document by any Party to a Finance Party which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for VAT purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies, and accordingly, subject to Clause 13.6.2, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party to any Party under a Finance Document, that Party shall pay to the Finance Party (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (and such Finance Party shall provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such Party as soon as reasonably practicable).

13.6.2 If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Finance Party (the Supplier) to any other Finance Party (the Recipient) under a Finance Document, and any Party other than the Recipient (the Subject Party) is required by the terms of any Finance Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT. The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT.

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

13.7 FATCA information

13.7.1 Subject to Clause 13.7.3, each Party shall, within 10 Business Days of a reasonable request by another Party:

(a) confirm to that other Party whether it is:

(i) a FATCA Exempt Party; or

(ii) not a FATCA Exempt Party;

(b) supply to that other Party such forms, documentation and other information relating to its status under FATCA (including its applicable "passthrough percentage" or other information required under the US Treasury regulations or other official guidance including inter-governmental agreements) as that other Party reasonably requests for the purposes of that other Party's compliance with FATCA;

(c) 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.

13.7.2 If a Party confirms to another Party pursuant to Clause 13.7.1 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.

13.7.3 Clause 13.7.1 shall not oblige any Finance Party to do anything, and Clause 13.7.1(c) shall not oblige any other Party to do anything, which would or might in its reasonable opinion constitute a breach of:

(a) any law or regulation;

(b) any fiduciary duty; or

13.7.4 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 Clause 13.7.1(a) or (b) (including, for the avoidance of doubt, where Clause 13.7.3 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.

13.8 FATCA Deduction

13.8.1 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.

13.8.2 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 Company and the Agent and the Agent shall notify the other Finance Parties.

14. CHANGES IN COSTS

14.1 Increased costs

14.2.2 Each Finance Party shall, as soon as practicable after a demand by the Facility Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Increased Costs.

14.3.1 Clause 14.1 (Increased costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is:

(a) attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by an Obligor;

(b) attributable to a FATCA Deduction required to be made by a Party;

(c) compensated for by Clause 13.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under that Clause but was not so compensated solely because any of the exclusions in that Clause applied); or

SECTION 6
GUARANTEE

18. GUARANTEE AND INDEMNITY

18.1 Guarantee and indemnity

Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally jointly and severally, as a principal obligor and not merely as a surety and on the basis of discrete obligations enforceable against it:

18.1.1 guarantees to each Finance Party punctual performance by each other Obligor of all that Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

18.1.2 undertakes with each Finance Party that whenever an Obligor does not pay any amount when due under or in connection with any Finance Document, that Guarantor shall immediately on demand pay that amount as if it were the principal obligor; and

18.1.3 agrees with each Finance Party that if any obligation guaranteed by it is or becomes unenforceable, invalid or illegal, it will, as an independent and primary obligation, indemnify that Finance Party immediately on demand against any cost, loss or liability it incurs as a result of an Obligor not paying any amount which would, but for such unenforceability, invalidity or illegality, have been payable by it under any Finance Document on the date when it would have been due. The amount payable by a Guarantor under this indemnity will not exceed the amount it would have had to pay under this Clause 18 if the amount claimed had been recoverable on the basis of a guarantee.

18.2 Continuing guarantee

This guarantee is a continuing guarantee and will extend to the ultimate balance of sums payable by any Obligor under the Finance Documents, regardless of any intermediate payment or discharge in whole or in part.

18.3 Reinstatement

If any payment by an Obligor or any discharge, release or arrangement given by a Finance Party (whether in respect of the obligations of any Obligor or any security for those obligations or otherwise) is avoided or reduced for any reason (including, without limitation, as a result of insolvency, business rescue proceedings, liquidation, winding-up or otherwise):

18.3.1 the liability of each Obligor shall continue as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred; and

18.3.2 each Finance Party shall be entitled to recover the value or amount of that security or payment from each Obligor, as if the payment, discharge, avoidance or reduction had not occurred.

18.4 Waiver of defences

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Clause 18 will not be affected by an act, omission, matter or thing which, but for this Clause, would reduce, release or prejudice any of its obligations under this Clause 18 (without limitation and whether or not known to it or any Finance Party) including:

18.4.1 any time, waiver or consent granted to, or composition with, any Obligor or other person;

18.4.2 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 Net1 Group;

18.4.3 the taking, variation, compromise, exchange, renewal or release of, or refusal or neglect to perfect, execute, take up or enforce, any rights against, or security over assets of, any Obligor or other person or any non-presentation or non-observance of any formality or other requirement in respect of any instrument or any failure to realise the full value of any security;

18.4.4 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;

18.4.5 any amendment, novation, supplement, extension restatement (however fundamental and whether or not more onerous) or replacement of any Finance Document or any other document or security including without limitation any change in the purpose of, any extension of or any increase in any facility or the addition of any new facility under any Finance Document or other document or security;

18.4.6 any unenforceability, illegality, invalidity suspension or cancellation of any obligation of any person under this Agreement or any other Finance Document or any other document or security;

18.4.7 any insolvency, liquidation, winding-up, business rescue or similar proceedings (including, but not limited to, receipt of any distribution made under or in connection with those proceedings);

18.4.8 this Agreement or any other Finance Document not being executed by or binding against any other Guarantor or any other party; or

18.4.9 any other fact or circumstance arising on which a Guarantor might otherwise be able to rely on a defence based on prejudice, waiver or estoppel.

18.5 Guarantor intent

Without prejudice to the generality of Clause 18.4 (Waiver of defences), each Guarantor expressly confirms that it intends that this guarantee shall extend from time to time to any (however fundamental) 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 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.

18.6 Immediate recourse

Each Guarantor waives any right it may have of first requiring any Finance Party (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 18. This waiver applies irrespective of any law or any provision of a Finance Document to the contrary.

18.7 Deferral of Guarantors' rights

18.7.1 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 Facility Agent otherwise 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 18:

(a) to be indemnified by an Obligor;

(b) to claim any contribution from any other guarantor of or provider of security for any Obligor's obligations under the Finance Documents;

(c) to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation, cession of action or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under the Finance Documents or of any other guarantee or security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, the Finance Documents by any Finance Party;

(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 18.1 (Guarantee and indemnity);

(e) to exercise any right of set-off against any Obligor; and/or

(f) to claim, rank, prove or vote as a creditor or shareholder of any Obligor in competition with any Finance Party.

18.7.2 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 Finance Parties by the Obligors under or in connection with the Finance Documents to be repaid in full on trust for, or otherwise for the benefit of, the Finance Parties and shall promptly pay or transfer the same to the Facility Agent or as the Facility Agent may direct for application in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment Mechanics).

18.8 Release of Guarantors' right of contribution

If any Guarantor (a Retiring Guarantor) ceases to be a Guarantor in accordance with the terms of the Finance Documents for the purpose of any sale or other disposal of that Retiring Guarantor then on the date such Retiring Guarantor ceases to be a Guarantor:

18.8.1 that Retiring Guarantor is automatically released by each other Guarantor from any liability (whether past, present or future and whether actual or contingent) to make a contribution to any other Guarantor arising by reason of the performance by any other Guarantor of its obligations under the Finance Documents; and

18.8.2 each other Guarantor waives any rights it may have by reason of the performance of its obligations under the Finance Documents to take the benefit (in whole or in part and whether by way of subrogation, cession of action or otherwise) of any rights of the Finance Parties under any Finance Document or of any other security taken pursuant to, or in connection with, any Finance Document where such rights or security are granted by or in relation to the assets of the Retiring Guarantor.

18.9 Additional security

This guarantee is in addition to and is not in any way prejudiced by any other guarantee or security now or subsequently held by any Finance Party (which a Finance Party may release as it sees fit, without prejudice to its rights hereunder).

28. SHARING AMONG THE FINANCE PARTIES

28.1 Payments to Finance Parties

If a Finance Party (a Recovering Finance Party) receives or recovers any amount from an Obligor other than in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment Mechanics) (a Recovered Amount) and applies that amount to a payment due under the Finance Documents then:

28.1.1 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within 3 Business Days, notify details of the receipt or recovery, to the Facility Agent;

28.1.2 the Facility Agent shall determine whether the receipt or recovery is in excess of the amount the Recovering Finance Party would have been paid had the receipt or recovery been received or made by the Facility Agent and distributed in accordance with Clause 31 (Payment Mechanics), without taking account of any Tax which would be imposed on the Facility Agent in relation to the receipt, recovery or distribution; and

28.1.3 the Recovering Finance Party shall, within 3 Business Days of demand by the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent an amount (the Sharing Payment) equal to such receipt or recovery less any amount which the Facility Agent determines may be retained by the Recovering Finance Party as its share of any payment to be made.

28.2 Redistribution of payments

The Facility Agent shall treat the Sharing Payment as if it had been paid by the relevant Obligor and distribute it between the Finance Parties (other than the Recovering Finance Party) (the Sharing Finance Parties) in accordance with the Intercreditor Agreement towards the obligations of that Obligor to the Sharing Finance Parties.

28.3 Recovering Finance Party's rights

28.3.1 On a distribution by the Facility Agent under Clause 28.2 of a payment received by a Recovering Finance Party from that Obligor, as between the relevant Obligor and the Recovering Finance Party, an amount of the Recovered Amount equal to the Sharing Payment will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

28.3.2 If and to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party is not able to rely on its rights under Clause 28.3.1 (that is, an amount equal to the Sharing Payment is treated as having been paid by the relevant Obligor), the Obligors shall be liable to the Recovering Finance Party for a debt equal to the Sharing Payment which is immediately due and payable.

28.4 Reversal of redistribution

If any part of the Sharing Payment received or recovered by a Recovering Finance Party becomes repayable and is repaid by that Recovering Finance Party, then:

28.4.1 each Sharing Finance Party shall, upon request of the Facility Agent, pay to the Facility Agent for the account of that Recovering Finance Party an amount equal to the appropriate part of its share of the Sharing Payment (together with an amount as is necessary to reimburse that Recovering Finance Party for its proportion of any interest on the Sharing Payment which that Recovering Finance Party is required to pay) (the Redistributed Amount); and

28.4.2 as between the relevant Obligor and each relevant Sharing Finance Party, an amount equal to the relevant Redistributed Amount will be treated as not having been paid by that Obligor.

28.5 Exceptions

28.5.1 This Clause 28 shall not apply to the extent that the Recovering Finance Party would not, after making any payment pursuant to this Clause, have a valid and enforceable claim against the Obligors.

28.5.2 A Recovering Finance Party is not obliged to share with any other Finance Party any amount which the Recovering Finance Party has received or recovered as a result of taking legal or arbitration proceedings, if:

(a) it notified that other Finance Party of the legal or arbitration proceedings; and

(b) that other Finance Party had an opportunity to participate in those legal or arbitration proceedings but did not do so as soon as reasonably practicable having received notice and did not take separate legal or arbitration proceedings.

29. CONDUCT OF BUSINESS BY THE FINANCE PARTIES

No provision of this Agreement will:

29.1 interfere with the right of any Finance Party to arrange its affairs (tax or otherwise) in whatever manner it thinks fit;

29.2 oblige any Finance Party to investigate or claim any credit, relief, remission or repayment available to it or the extent, order and manner of any claim; or

29.3 oblige any Finance Party to disclose any information relating to its affairs (tax or otherwise) or any computations in respect of Tax.

30. FINANCE PARTY RIGHTS

The Borrower shall pay all accrued interest on the Senior Facility G Loan made to it on each Interest Payment Date, in accordance with the requirements of clause 31 (Payment Mechanics) of the Common Terms Agreement.

8.3 Interest on overdue amounts

8.3.1 Any interest accruing on an Unpaid Sum shall be immediately payable by the Borrower on demand by the Facility Agent.

8.3.2 Default interest (if unpaid) arising on any Unpaid Sum will be compounded with that Unpaid Sum on the last day of each calendar month, but will remain immediately due and payable.

8.4 Notification of rates of interest

Without prejudice to the obligation of the Borrower to pay interest calculated at any applicable rate under this Clause 8, the Facility Agent shall notify the Senior Facility G Lenders and the Borrower, as soon as reasonably practicable:

8.4.1 of the determination of a rate of interest under this Agreement;

8.4.2 when interest commences to accrue at the rate calculated by reference to the Applicable Margin specified in Clause 1.1.1(c) (Definitions).

9. INTEREST PERIODS

9.1 Duration

Each Senior Facility G Loan has successive Interest Periods:

9.1.1 commencing on (and including) the Utilisation Date (in respect of the first Interest Period for that Senior Facility G Loan) or commencing on (and including) an Interest Payment Date; and

9.1.2 ending on (but excluding) the next Interest Payment Date.

9.2 Interest Periods for Unpaid Sums

Interest accruing on an Unpaid Sum shall be calculated as if that Unpaid Sum, during the period of non-payment, constituted a Loan under Senior Facility G for successive Interest Periods, each of a duration selected by the Facility Agent (acting reasonably). For this purpose, the Facility Agent (acting reasonably) may:

9.2.1 select successive Interest Periods of any duration of up to three months; and

9.2.2 determine the appropriate Quotation Day for that Interest Period.

If any Unpaid Sum consists of all or part of the Senior Facility G Loan which became due on a day which was not the last day of an Interest Period relating to that Senior Facility G Loan, the first Interest Period for that Unpaid Sum shall have a duration equal to the unexpired portion of the current Interest Period relating to the Senior Facility G Loan.

9.3 No overrunning the Final Maturity Date

If an Interest Period for a Senior Facility G Loan would otherwise extend beyond the Final Maturity Date, it will be shortened so that it ends on the Final Maturity Date. This Clause does not apply to Interest Periods selected under Clause 9.2 above in respect of Unpaid Sums which remain outstanding on the Final Maturity Date.

9.4 Non-Business Days

If an Interest Payment Date would otherwise occur on a day which is not a Business Day, that Interest Payment Date will instead be the next Business Day in the same calendar month (if there is one) or the preceding Business Day (if there is not).

10. FEES

10.1 Non-refundable Deal Origination Fee

The Borrower shall pay to the Senior Facility G Lender a non-refundable deal origination fee in the amount and at the times agreed in a Fee Letter.

11. DEFAULT

If an Event of Default occurs, and for so long as it is continuing, the Facility Agent may enforce any of the rights and remedies provided for in clause 23.15 (Acceleration) of the Common Terms Agreement.

12. TRIGGER EVENT

If (a) on the Trigger Event Date the Trigger Event has occurred, or (b) if on any date a Financial Covenant Breach occurs, the Borrower and/or Holdco shall ensure the balance of the Secured Account is at least ZAR250,000,000 (or the USD equivalent of ZAR250,000,000 at the spot rate on that day) within 5 Business Days of the Trigger Event Date or the date on which the Financial Covenant Breach occurred.
