If a payment is due in Hungarian forint, and such payment is to be effected from a FX Payment Account, conversion between currencies shall be based on the Bank's commercial FX buy rate valid with respect of the date of payment (quoted on the second Working Day preceding the day of payment), and the related coverage must be available on the FX Payment Account by not later than hrs on the second Working Day preceding the due date. If the coverage is available by the due date on the account, the Bank shall apply the FX exchange rate to the conversion. 5.6 The Client authorises the Bank to separate the funds necessary for the conversions on the Payment Accounts to be debited, as necessary, two Working Days prior to the due date, and to execute the conversions without any separate instruction from the Client. 5.7 The Bank is entitled to offset any of the Client s overdue debts outstanding towards the Bank on the basis of the Financing Documents, or arising under any other legal title, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Business Regulations. The right of offsetting shall not affect the Bank s right to enforce its claim in any other manner. The Client shall not be entitled to offset the Bank s debts outstanding towards the Client against the Client s payment liabilities existing on the basis of the Agreement or in relation thereto, and the payments to be performed by the Client on the basis of the Agreement shall be performed without any deduction on the grounds of a claim for offsetting (objection) or other receivable. 5.8 If the due date of any amount payable under the Agreement does not fall on a Working Day, such amount shall be payable on the next Working Day, unless there are no more Working Days left in the given calendar month, as then the due date shall be the Working Day immediately preceding that. 5.9 The Bank shall settle the Client s payments in compliance with the related legal regulations.

Multi-Currency Credit Facility Agreements 6.1 The Client shall indicate the Currency of Record of the loan in the related drawdown request. The Bank shall register the loan in the currency defined in the above manner. In the case of a loan drawn down in a currency different from the currency of the credit facility, the amount of the available credit limit will be reduced by the amount, converted to the currency of the credit facility, of the loans disbursed to the charge of the credit facility, and outstanding, provided that the credit facility has not been cancelled. At the time of loan disbursement, conversion shall be performed at the Exchange Rate of Record valid on the Working Day preceding the quoting day. 6.2 If, prior to the disbursement indicated in section 6.1 or the conversion mentioned in section 6.4, the Bank notifies the Client about its inability to execute the transactions in the currency specified in the drawdown request or the conversion request due to the fact that the given currency is not available, or is available only at an uneconomical cost, then the Client s options during the term of such unavailability will be limited to the remaining available currencies. 6.3 The Bank shall be entitled to convert the amount of the loans at the Exchange Rate of Record to the currency of the credit facility at any time. If the amount of the loans converted at the Exchange Rate of Record exceeds the amount of the credit facility, the Client shall be obliged to immediately pay the amount of the differential to the Bank. The Bank may decide, at its own discretion, which of the currently existing loans should be pre-paid using the amount of the differential repaid. The Client authorises the Bank to charge the amount of the differential while notifying the Client on the bank account statement to any other payment account of the Client kept at the Bank, in compliance with the conversion rules set out in the Credit Facility Agreement and in these GTC. If none of the Client's payment accounts kept at the Bank provide sufficient coverage for the payment of the differential, the Client shall, within three Working Days of 8.

9 the Bank's written notice, make available the amount of the differential on the payment account indicated by the Bank. The Client understands that the amount of the repayable differential shall be classed as overdue debt as from the day following the expiry of the payment deadline indicated in the Bank's written notice. The Bank may request the Client to provide for supplementary security rather than prepayment. 6.4 The Client may request the Bank to change the Currency of Record of any loan to any of the other currencies determined in the Credit Agreement, based on a written notice sent to the Bank at least three Working Days prior to the date of conversion indicated by the Client in the conversion request provided that no Breach of Contract is present. If the Currency of Record of the loan is Hungarian forint, the Bank shall, on the conversion day specified by the Client, calculate the amount of the loan in the new Currency of Record at the commercial FX buy rate quoted by the Bank with respect to the new Currency of Record of the loan on the second Working Day preceding the day of conversion of the loan. Inasmuch as the Currency of Record of the loan is not Hungarian forint: (i) if the new Currency of Record is Hungarian forint, the Bank shall, on the conversion day specified by the Client, calculate the amount of the loan in forint at the commercial FX sell rate quoted by the Bank with respect to the new Currency of Record of the loan on the second Working Day preceding the day of conversion of the loan; or (ii) if the new Currency of Record is not Hungarian forint, the amount of the loan calculated in the new Currency of Record shall be determined at the commercial FX rate quoted by the Bank on the second Working Date prior to the day of conversion. If the Client requests the changing of the currency of the loan as of the interest payment date, the Bank shall not charge any administration fee for the change. In all other cases, the Bank shall charge an administration fee on the full amount of the loan. On the occasion of each conversion, the Interest Period then in progress shall end and a new Interest Period shall begin. A precondition for the conversion is that it should not cause a breach of the credit limit, or, if the credit limit is breached as a result of the conversion, the amount exceeding the credit limit shall be pre-paid simultaneously with the conversion. The Client shall make available the amount of the pre-payment by not later than the second Working Day preceding the day of conversion, on the Payment Account indicated in the conversion request. If the funds providing coverage for the pre-payment are not available on the Payment Account indicated in the conversion request, the Bank will not execute the requested conversion. Simultaneously with the conversion of a loan from the Currency of Record into another currency, the Client shall pay all such interest and Consideration that has accrued with respect to the converted loan that is payable by the Client. If the Client fails to pay the interest that has accrued with respect to the converted loan and the Consideration, the Bank shall be entitled to reject the application for the change in currency. 7. Optional currency For the purposes of this section: base currency: in the case of a bank guarantee and letter of credit framework agreement, this shall have the meaning defined in the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement. Exchange Rate of Record: the official daily base currency mid-rate quoted by the MNB on the given day, with respect to the given currency. Optional currency: in the case of a bank guarantee and letter of credit framework agreement, this shall have the meaning defined in the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement. The base currency amount of the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit or of any part thereof that is not deemed to have lost its effect: (a) if the currency of the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit is the base currency; or (b) if the currency of the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit is an optional currency, its equivalent in the base currency, adjusted at the appropriate Exchange Rate of Record on the Date of Issue of the given Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit, then on a daily basis. The Client shall determine the currency of the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit on the related form. With respect to the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit existing in the optional currency, for the purpose of calculation of: (a) any amount-related limitation stipulated in the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement (b) the Balance of a Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit; (c) the extent of the Cash Collateral of a Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit; (d) the amount with respect to which the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit has lost effect; or (e) the amount of the non-drawn down bank guarantee or letter of credit limit, the related base currency-amount must be taken into account. In the case of a Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit issued in an optional currency, the Bank shall not be entitled to recalculate, any time after the execution of the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement, the amount of the base currency of the given Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit on the basis of the Exchange Rate of Record valid on the day of calculation. Within three (3) Working Days of receipt of the Bank s notice, the Client shall, with respect to the Bank Guarantee(s)/Letter(s) of Credit, provide Cash Collateral, or it shall ensure that the Bank Guarantee(s)/Letter(s) of Credit lose(s) effect, in order to ensure that the base currency amount of the Bank Guarantee(s)/Letter(s) of Credit does not exceed the bank guarantee/letter of credit limit after the calculation of the base currency amount described above. 9.

10 8. Interest calculation 8.1 Interest calculation (a) The length of the Interest Period is determined by the Agreement. With respect to the loans, continuous Interest Periods shall be applied. (b) The initial day of the first Interest Period is the first Disbursement Day, which also applies to any further loans disbursed during the first Interest Period; and all further Interest Periods shall commence on the last day of the previous Interest Period, and the Interest Period shall be applicable to loans disbursed both during and before the given Interest Period. (c) If the Interest Period is defined by calendar months or quarters, then the first Interest Period shall start on the first Disbursement Day and shall end on the last Working Day of the then current calendar month or quarter, and this shall also be applicable to any other loans disbursed during the first Interest Period (fraction Interest Period). (d) If an Interest Period ends after the (final) expiry date defined in the Agreement, it shall be shortened to an extent such as to ensure that it ends on the (final) expiry date. (e) The loans disbursed during the given Interest Period shall, as of the Disbursement Date, be aggregated, and, as of the first day of the next Interest Period, they shall qualify as one single loan. (f) The amount of the interest payable on the basis of the annual interest rate defined in the Agreement shall be determined using the following formula: K = (T*N*P) / (360*100) In the case of GBP, the formula is as follows: K = (T*N*P) / (365*100) (g) where, assuming 365/360 days in a year: (a) K: the amount of the payable interest; (b) T: the principal amount, on which the interest is payable; (c) N: the number of the days that have actually elapsed during the period serving as the basis for interest payment; (d) P: the size of the annual interest rate defined in the Credit Facility Agreement; and (c) * the multiplication sign. 8.2 Unauthorised credit interest The Client shall, on any Unauthorised Credit, pay an unauthorised credit interest with respect to the period between the due date and the day of the actual payment. The extent of the unauthorised credit interest is identical to the unauthorised credit interest rate determined in the Bank s List of Conditions valid on the due date. 8.3 Default Interest If the Client fails to fulfil any of its payment obligations existing under the Agreement (not including the Unauthorised Credit) when due, the Client shall, on any overdue debt, pay a default credit interest with respect to the period between the due date and the day of actual payment. (a) The default interest rate applicable on the loan and the interest shall be identical to the interest rate defined in the List of Conditions valid on the due date. The default interest rate shall be determined by the Bank in such manner that any unpaid or outstanding amount shall, for the period of the delay, be considered as a loan in the same currency, and the transaction interest rate that is due after such period and is applicable on the due date shall be increased with the interest rate indicated in the List of Conditions. Regarding the calculation of the default interest, during the term of the Agreement, the Interest Period related to the loan shall be applied. The first Interest Period of an overdue debt shall start on the first day of the delay, and it shall be identical to the period that remains of the then-current Interest Period. The extent of the default interest rate shall be fixed on the original final expiry date of the Agreement, or on the expiry date determined upon termination. (b) The default interest is registered by the Bank in the currency of the overdue debt. (c) If the Client fails to fulfil a payment obligation under the Agreement existing in a foreign currency by the due date, and also fails to fulfil such obligation within 15 calendar days after the due date, the Bank may, at any time after the deadline of 15 calendar days, convert the Client's unpaid due debts to Hungarian forint. Conversion shall be executed at the FX sell rate quoted by the Bank at the time of the conversion. As from the time of the conversion, the Client shall repay the converted debt in Hungarian forint. (d) In the case of a Credit Facility Agreement, as of the date of conversion, the Client shall pay the Bank, as part of the default interest, transaction interest calculated in Hungarian forint with respect to the converted debts, in such manner that, when determining the transaction interest applicable to the debt converted to forint, the interest base shall, besides the same interest premium, be replaced as follows: (i) LIBOR/EURIBOR shall be replaced by BUBOR (quoted for an identical period); and (ii) the foreign currency CIB Prime Rate shall be replaced by the forint CIB Prime Rate The Bank shall notify the Client about the conversion, specifying the forint amount of the debt resulting from the conversion and the new default interest rate, and the Bank shall also specify the new basic interest rate. (e) In the case of a Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement, as of the date of conversion, the Client shall pay the Bank, as part of the default interest, unauthorised credit interest calculated in Hungarian forint with respect to the converted debts, in such manner that, when determining the unauthorised credit interest applicable to the 10.

11 debt converted to forint, the unauthorised credit interest applicable to foreign currency shall be replaced by the unauthorised credit interest applicable to forint. The Bank shall notify the Client about the conversion, specifying the forint amount of the debt resulting from the conversion and the new default interest rate. 8.4 Extraordinary market situation If the interest is determined on the basis of a variable reference interest base, and such variable reference interest base cannot be determined in a reliable and reasonable manner, the Bank shall: (a) immediately notify the Client of such circumstance; and (b) as soon as possible, determine the reference interest rate applicable to the given Interest Period, as a sum of the following items: (i) the interest premium determined in the Credit Facility Agreement and (ii) such interest base determined by the Bank which, as an annual interest rate, expresses the Bank s costs at which the Bank can finance the loan from a resource reasonably chosen by it If in the Agreement the interest rate was determined on the basis of a basic interest rate, and the prevailing money market disturbances have caused material changes in factors having a substantial impact on the financing costs of the transaction, including in particular the level of the benchmark money market rates (central-bank base rate, BUBOR, LIBOR, EONIA, EURIBOR, credit/deposit interest rates covered by the National Bank of Hungary, interbank interest rates, etc.), the extent of the international and domestic money market FX interest rates, the interbank credit interest rates, the level of the average yields on debt securities or the Bank's refinancing facilities, as a result of which, on a specific interest fixing day, the Bank can only acquire funds at higher costs relative to the basic interest rate fixed the Agreement, then the Bank shall be entitled to also enforce, in addition to the basic interest rate and the interest premium, the additional costs of funds expressed in an annual percentage form with respect to a specific Interest Period. The Bank shall notify the Client about the extent of the additional cost of funds with due regard to the period specified by the relevant legal regulations, prior to the given Interest Period. If there is no separate legal regulation in respect of the additional cost of funds as regards the notification of Clients, then the Bank shall notify the Client about the extent of the additional cost of funds simultaneously with the determination of the interest applicable to the given Interest Period. Payment of the additional costs calculated on top of the interest shall be due simultaneously with the interest payment. In this case the Client may effect prepayment of his full debt affected by the additional cost out of turn, on the next interest payment day, free of charge. If when determining the interest base rate the Bank proceeds in accordance with the foregoing, the Bank shall notify the Client forthwith of the reason for the change in the interest base rate and of the extent of the interest base rate applied to the given Interest Period. If the interest base rate is quoted again, the Parties shall again apply the interest base rate defined in the Agreement as the interest base rate on the understanding that in such case the start date of the application thereof will be the first day of the next Interest Period. If, prior to the execution of a transaction involving risk on the Bank s part, the Bank notifies the Client about the impossibility of (i) execution of a specific order in the currency specified in the Credit Facility Agreement; or (ii) the issue of a Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit in the currency specified in the Bank Guarantee/Letter of Credit Commission Agreement, due to the fact that specific currency is unavailable or is available only at an uneconomical cost, the Bank may offer the Client financing in another currency (primarily Hungarian forint). If the Client accepts the offer, the transaction may be fulfilled after the modification has been suitably documented. If the Client rejects the alternative execution, the Bank shall bear no responsibility for the failure of execution of the transaction If the interest calculation takes place, according to the Agreement, with the application of a basic interest rate (BUBOR/EURIBOR/LIBOR) and the published value of the applicable basic interest rate is negative, the extent of the basic interest rate shall be deemed to be zero in respect of the given interest period. 9.
