                 of Condition 18.1.1.9 (Disposal of a material part of the business) of the Terms and Conditions which would constitute
                 an “Event of Default” under the Terms and Conditions (the Event of Default).

3.1.3            To implement the Relevant Disposal, the Issuer requires the consent of the Noteholders to waive the Event of Default

                      Disposal.
