That person shall become a Lender on the date specified in the Additional Facility Accession Agreement.

(b) Upon the relevant person becoming a Lender, the Total Commitments shall be increased by the amount set out in the relevant Additional Facility Accession Agreement as that Lender’s Additional Facility Commitment.

18. MARKET DISRUPTION

18.1 Absence of quotations

Subject to Clause 18.2 (Market disruption), if LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR is to be determined by reference to the Reference Banks but a Reference Bank does not supply a quotation by noon on the Rate Fixing Day, the applicable LIBOR or EURIBOR shall be determined on the basis of the quotations of the remaining Reference Banks.

18.2 Market disruption

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to an Advance for any Interest Period, then the rate of interest on each Lender’s share of that Advance for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of:

(i) the Margin;

(ii) the rate notified to the Facility Agent by that 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 Advance from whatever source it may reasonably select; and

(iii) the Mandatory Cost.

(b) In this Agreement Market Disruption Event means:

(i) at or about noon on the Rate Fixing Day for the relevant Term or 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 LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR for the relevant currency and period; or

(ii) before close of business in London on the Rate Fixing Day for the relevant Interest Period, the Facility Agent receives notifications from a Lender or Lenders (whose participations in an Advance aggregate not less than one-third of that Advance) that the cost to it of obtaining matching deposits in the London Interbank Market or, as the case may be, the European Interbank Market would be in excess of LIBOR or, if applicable, EURIBOR.

18.3 Alternative basis of interest or funding

(a) If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Facility Agent or UPC Broadband so requires, the Facility Agent and UPC Broadband shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than 30 days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest.

(b) Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to paragraph (a) above shall, with the prior consent of all the Lenders and UPC Broadband, be binding on all Parties.

(a) it is impracticable for the Lender to fund its participation in an Advance in US Dollars or an Additional Currency (as applicable) during that Interest Period in the ordinary course of business in the London or (in the case of euro) European Interbank Market; and/or

(b) the use of US Dollars or an Additional Currency (as applicable) might contravene any law or regulation,

the Facility Agent shall give notice to UPC Broadband and to the Lenders to that effect before 11.00 a.m. on that day. In this event:

(i) UPC Broadband and the Lenders may agree that the drawdown will not be made; or

(ii) in the absence of agreement:

(A) that Lender’s participation in the Advance (or, if more than one Lender is similarly affected, those Lender’s participations in the Advance) shall be

treated as a separate Advance denominated in euros during the relevant Interest Period;

(B) in the definitions of LIBOR or, as applicable, EURIBOR, (insofar as it applies to that Advance) in Clause 8.1 (Definitions):

I. there shall be substituted for the time “11.00 a.m.” the time “1.00 p.m.”; and

II. paragraph (c) of the relevant definition shall apply.

(a) A Finance Party intending to make a claim pursuant to Clause 19.1 (Increased Costs) as soon as is reasonably practicable after that Finance Party becomes aware that circumstances have arisen which entitle it to make such claim, shall notify the Facility Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Facility Agent shall promptly notify UPC Broadband.

(b) 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.

19.3 Exceptions

(a) Clause 19.1 (Increased Costs) does not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is:

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

(ii) compensated for by Clause 17.3 (Tax indemnity) (or would have been compensated for under Clause 17.3 (Tax indemnity) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Clause 17.3(b) (Tax indemnity) applied);

(iii) compensated for by the payment of the Mandatory Cost;

(iv) attributable to the implementation or application of or compliance with the “International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards, a Revised Framework” published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in June 2004 in the form existing on 16 April 2004 (“Basel II”) or any other law or regulation which implements Basel II (whether such implementation, application or compliance is by a government, regulator, Finance Party or any of its affiliates); or

101

For the avoidance of doubt, as a result of US GAAP purchase accounting adjustments, certain deferred revenues on the balance sheet of Cablecom GmbH were required to be written off. The Borrower shall, when calculating EBITDA, have the option to include revenues that would have been recognised had this US GAAP purchase accounting not taken place.

Interest means:

(a) interest and amounts in the nature of interest (including, without limitation, the interest element of finance leases) accrued;

(b) discount fees and acceptance fees payable or deducted in respect of any Financial Indebtedness (including all commissions payable in connection with any letter of credit); and

Ratio Period means each period of approximately 6 months covering two quarterly Accounting Periods of the Borrower Group ending on each date to which each set of financial statements required to be delivered under Clause 23.2(a) or (b) (Financial information) are prepared.

Senior Debt means at any time, the consolidated Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group after deducting any amount standing to the credit of the Blocked Account referred to in Clause 14.6(b)(ii) (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) to the extent such amount has been deposited in that Blocked Account pursuant to Clause 14.6(b)(ii) (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) and has not at the relevant time been applied in prepayment or reinvestment as described in Clause 14.6(b)(ii) (Mandatory prepayment from disposal proceeds) and, excluding:

(a) any Financial Indebtedness which is a contingent obligation of a member of the Borrower Group; and

(b) any Subordinated Shareholder Loans and any Financial Indebtedness referred to in Clause 23.12(b)(viii), (xi), (xii) and (xiii) (Restrictions on Financial Indebtedness).

Senior Debt Service means, for any Ratio Period, the sum of:

(a) all scheduled repayments (including scheduled reductions of revolving credits to the extent they are drawn) of Senior Debt which fell due during such Ratio Period excluding any scheduled repayments of facilities under this Agreement or the Existing Facility Agreement that are funded by drawings of an Additional Facility in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and

(b) Total Cash Interest for that Ratio Period.

Senior Interest means, in respect of any period, the amount of Total Cash Interest accrued in respect of Senior Debt during that period.

Total Cash Interest means, in respect of any period, the total amount of all Interest accrued in respect of Senior Debt and Subordinated Shareholder Loans during such period and payable in cash (either during such period or after such period) (having taken into account the

102

effect of any Senior Hedging Agreements), except in each case, to the extent that such payments (other than payments in respect of Senior Debt) are funded by distributions made by Unrestricted Subsidiaries to UPC Broadband or any other member of the Borrower Group and excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, capitalisation of Interest accrued in respect of Subordinated Shareholder Loans.

Total Debt means, at any time, the aggregate amount of:

(a) Senior Debt; and

(b) For the purposes of Clause 17.2(a) and 17.2(e), Senior Debt and Total Debt for any Ratio Period will be calculated on the basis of Senior Debt or Total Debt, as applicable, outstanding on the last day of that Ratio Period but shall, in each case, be reduced by the aggregate amount of all Cash and Cash Equivalent Investments held by any member of the Borrower Group at that time as stated on the consolidated financial statements of the Borrower Group for that Ratio Period.

24.4 Cure provisions

(a) UPC Broadband may cure a breach of the financial ratios set out in Clause 24.2(a), (b), (c), (d) and (e) (Financial ratios) by procuring that additional equity is injected into the Borrower Group by one or more Restricted Persons and/or additional Subordinated Shareholder Loans are provided to the Borrower Group in an aggregate amount equal to:

(i) in the case of a breach of Clause 24.2(a) or (e) (Financial ratios), the amount which, if it had been deducted from Senior Debt or Total Debt (as applicable) for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach; or

(ii) in the case of a breach of Clause 24.2(b), (c) or (d) (Financial ratios), the amount which, if it had been added to EBITDA for the Ratio Period in respect of which the breach arose, would have avoided the breach; or

(iii) in the case of a breach of more than one paragraph of Clause 24.2 (Financial ratios), the higher of the relevant amount referred to in (i) or (ii) above.

(b) A cure under paragraph (a) above will not be effective unless:

(i) the required amount of additional equity or the proceeds of Subordinated Shareholder Loans is received by the Borrower Group before delivery of the financial statements delivered under Clause 23.2(a) or (b) (Financial information) which show that Clause 24.2 (Financial ratios) has been breached; and

(ii) in the case of a cure of Clause 24.2(a) or (e) (Financial ratios), the proceeds of the relevant additional equity or Subordinated Shareholder Loans are applied in full in or towards repayment or prepayment of Facility A Advances (as defined in the Existing Facility Agreement) in accordance with Clause 14 (Cancellation and Prepayment) and, to the extent of any surplus after such repayment or prepayment, for the purposes of the Permitted Business.

(i) in respect of more than five Ratio Periods during the life of the Additional Facilities; or

(ii) in respect of consecutive Ratio Periods.

106

(d) Where a cure is exercised under this Clause 24.4 in respect of a breach of Clause 24.2(b), (c) or (d) (Financial ratios) and the next Ratio Period ends approximately three months after the Ratio Period in respect of which the cure was made, EBITDA in respect of that next Ratio Period will be deemed, for the purposes of Clause 24.2(b), (c) and (d) (Financial ratios), to be increased by the amount determined under subparagraph 24.4(a)(ii) above in respect of the relevant cure. This deemed increase will not be treated as a separate cure.

24.5 Determinations

(a) Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group originally denominated in any currency other than euro that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into euro, will be taken into account at its euro equivalent using the effective exchange rate in the relevant foreign exchange hedging transactions.

(b) All the terms used above are to be calculated in accordance with the GAAP on which the preparation of the Original Borrower Group Financial Statements was based.

(c) Notwithstanding paragraphs (a) and (b) above, Hedged Debt (as defined below) will be taken into account at its euro equivalent calculated using the same weighted average exchange rates for the relevant ratio period used in the profit and loss statements of the relevant accounts of the Borrower Group for calculating the euro equivalent of EBITDA denominated in the same currency as the currency in which that Hedged Debt is denominated or into which it has been swapped, as described below.

Hedged Debt means:

(i) Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group originally denominated in any currency other than euro in which any member of the Borrower Group earns EBITDA (a functional currency) and that has not been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into euro; and

(ii) Financial Indebtedness of the Borrower Group that has been swapped, directly or indirectly through one or more foreign exchange hedging transactions, into a functional currency.

(d) If there is a dispute as to any interpretation of or computation for Clause 24.1 (Financial definitions), the interpretation or computation of the auditors of UPC Broadband shall prevail.

(e) If UPC Broadband is obliged or chooses to prepare its financial statements on a different basis from the basis used in the preparation of the Original Borrower Group Financial Statements, such financial statements shall be accompanied by a statement (providing reasonable detail) from UPC Broadband either:

(i) confirming that the change(s) would have no effect on the operation of the ratios set out in Clause 24.2 (Financial ratios); or

(ii) unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Facility Agent (acting upon the instructions of the Majority Lenders), if the change(s) would have such an effect, containing a reconciliation demonstrating the effect of the change(s) (and, for the purpose of calculating the ratios set out in Clause 24.2 (Financial ratios), such financial

107

statements will be treated as though adjusted by that reconciliation so as to exclude the effect of the changes).

(c) Subject to paragraph (d) below, any Financial Indebtedness of a member of the Borrower Group or a member of the UGCE Borrower Group (other than any Financial Indebtedness of a member of the Borrower Group under the VTR Facility) becomes capable of being declared prematurely due and payable or placed on demand, in each case as a result of an event of default (howsoever described) under the document relating to that Financial Indebtedness.

114

(b) Each Finance Party appointing each Agent irrevocably authorises each Agent on its behalf to:

(i) perform the duties and to exercise the rights, powers and discretions that are specifically delegated to it under or in connection with the Finance Documents, together with any other incidental rights, powers and discretions; and

(ii) execute each Finance Document expressed to be executed by the Facility Agent on that Finance Party’s behalf.

(c) Each Agent shall have only those duties which are expressly specified in this Agreement. Those duties are solely of a mechanical and administrative nature.

26.2 Relationship

The relationship between each Agent and the other Finance Parties is that of agent and principal only. Nothing in this Agreement constitutes either Agent as trustee or fiduciary for any other Party or any other person and neither Agent need hold in trust any moneys paid to it for a Party save as provided in the Finance Documents or be liable to account for interest on those moneys.

26.3 Majority Lenders’ directions

(a) Each Agent will be fully protected if it acts in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders in connection with the exercise of any right, power or discretion or any matter not expressly provided for in the Finance Documents. Any such instructions given by the Majority Lenders will be binding on all the Lenders. In the absence of such instructions each Agent may act as it considers to be in the best interests of all the Lenders.

(b) No Agent is authorised to act on behalf of a Lender (without first obtaining that Lender’s consent) in any legal or arbitration proceedings relating to any Finance Document.

(b) the collectability of amounts payable under any Finance Document;

(c) the accuracy of any statements (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with any Finance Document by any other Party; or

(d) the integrity or security of any Finance Document or other document or information posted or distributed electronically on any intranet based system (or similar) in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of the Finance Documents or the administration of the Facilities.

115

26.6 Default

(a) Neither Agent is obliged to monitor or enquire as to whether or not a Default has occurred. Neither Agent will be deemed to have knowledge of the occurrence of a Default. However, if an Agent receives notice from a Party referring to this Agreement, describing the Default and stating that the event is a Default, it shall promptly notify the Lenders of such notice.

(b) Each Agent may require the receipt of security satisfactory to it whether by way of payment in advance or otherwise, against any liability or loss which it will or may incur in taking any proceedings or action arising out of or in connection with any Finance Document before it commences these proceedings or takes that action.

26.7 Exoneration

(a) Without limiting paragraph (b) below, neither Agent will be liable for any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with any Finance Document, unless directly caused by its gross negligence or wilful misconduct.

(b) No Party may take any proceedings against any officer, employee or agent of either Agent in respect of any claim it might have against that Agent or in respect of any act or omission of any kind (including negligence or wilful misconduct) by that officer, employee or agent in relation to any Finance Document.

(c) Any officer, employee or agent of either Agent may rely on this Clause 26.7 and enforce its terms under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999.

26.8 Reliance

Each Agent may:

(a) rely on any notice or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by, or with the authority of, the proper person;

(b) rely on any statement made by a director or employee of any person regarding any matters which may reasonably be assumed to be within his knowledge or within his power to verify; and

(c) engage, pay for and rely on legal or other professional advisers selected by it (including those in the Facility Agent’s employment and those representing a Party other than the Facility Agent).

26.9 Credit approval and appraisal

Without affecting the responsibility of any Obligor for information supplied by it or on its behalf in connection with any Finance Document, each Lender confirms that it:

(a) has made its own independent investigation and assessment of the financial condition and affairs of each Obligor and its related entities in connection with its participation in this Agreement and has not relied exclusively on any information provided to it by either Agent in connection with any Finance Document; and

116

(b) will continue to make its own independent appraisal of the creditworthiness of each Obligor and its related entities while any amount is or may be outstanding under the Finance Documents or any Commitment is in force.

26.10 Information

(a) Each Agent shall promptly forward to the person concerned the original or a copy of any document which is delivered to that Agent by a Party for that person.

(b) Except where this Agreement specifically provides otherwise, neither Agent is obliged to review or check the accuracy or completeness of any document it forwards to another Party.

(i) either initially or on a continuing basis to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the financial condition or affairs of any Obligor or any related entity of any Obligor whether coming into its possession or that of any of its related entities before, on or after the Signing Date; or

(ii) unless specifically requested to do so by a Lender in accordance with this Agreement, to request any certificates or other documents from any Obligor.

26.11 Each Agent individually

(a) If it is also a Lender, each of the Facility Agent and the Security Agent has the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise those rights and powers as though it were not the Facility Agent or Security Agent (as applicable).

(b) Each of the Agents may:

(i) carry on any business with an Obligor or its related entities;

(ii) act as agent or trustee for, or in relation to any financing involving, an Obligor or its related entities; and

(iii) retain any profits or remuneration in connection with its activities under the Finance Documents, or in relation to any of the foregoing.

26.12 Indemnities

Each Lender shall indemnify each Agent, within three Business Days of demand, against any cost, loss or liability incurred by the relevant Agent (otherwise than by reason of the relevant Agent’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct) in acting as Agent under the Finance Documents (unless the relevant Agent has been reimbursed by an Obligor pursuant to a Finance Document). Such indemnification shall be pro rata to its Commitments (and for the purposes of calculating this proportion, the amount of the Total Additional Facility Commitments and each Lender’s Additional Facility Commitments shall be converted to euros at the Agent’s Spot Rate of Exchange on the date of the relevant calculation).

117

26.13 Compliance

(a) Each Agent may refrain from doing anything which might, in its reasonable opinion, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person, and may do anything which, in its reasonable opinion, is necessary or desirable to comply with any law or regulation of any jurisdiction.

(b) Without limiting paragraph (a) above, neither Agent need disclose any information relating to any Obligor or any of its related entities if the disclosure might, in the opinion of the relevant Agent, constitute a breach of any law or regulation or any duty of secrecy or confidentiality or be otherwise actionable at the suit of any person.

26.14 Resignation of Agents

(a) Notwithstanding its irrevocable appointment (but subject to paragraphs (f) and (g) below), each Agent may resign by giving notice to the Lenders and UPC Broadband, in which case the relevant Agent may, following consultation with and with the consent of UPC Broadband (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) forthwith appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent or, failing that, the Majority Lenders may with the consent of UPC Broadband (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint a reputable and experienced bank as successor Agent. The resignation of the Security Agent is subject to compliance with clause 9.1 (Retirement of Security Agent) of the Security Deed.

(b) If the appointment of a successor Agent is to be made by the Majority Lenders but they have not, within 30 days after notice of resignation, appointed a successor Agent which accepts the appointment, the retiring Agent may, following consultation with and with the consent of UPC Broadband (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), appoint a successor Agent.

(c) The resignation of the retiring Agent and the appointment of any successor Agent will both become effective only upon the successor Agent notifying all the Parties that it accepts the appointment. On giving the notification and receiving such approval, the successor Agent will succeed to the position of the retiring Facility Agent and the term Facility Agent or Security Agent (as the case may be) will mean the successor Facility Agent or Security Agent, respectively.

(d) The retiring Agent shall, at its own cost, make available to the successor Agent such documents and records and provide such assistance as the successor Agent may reasonably request for the purposes of performing its functions as the Agent under this Agreement.

(e) Upon its resignation becoming effective, this Clause 26 shall continue to benefit the retiring Agent in respect of any action taken or not taken by it under or in connection with the Finance Documents while it was the relevant Agent and, subject to paragraph (d) above, it shall have no further obligation under any Finance Document.

(f) The Majority Lenders may by notice to an Agent require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above. In this event, the relevant Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above but it shall not be entitled to appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent.

(g) UPC Broadband may, if it is unsatisfied (acting reasonably) with the performance by an Agent of its role as Agent, following a period of consultation with the relevant

118

Agent of not less than 14 days, by notice to that Agent require it to resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above. Such notice must specify the reasons for which UPC Broadband is seeking the Agent’s resignation, which must be based on reasonable grounds. In this event, the relevant Agent shall resign in accordance with paragraph (a) above but it shall not be entitled to appoint one of its Affiliates as successor Agent.

26.15 Lenders

(a) Each Agent may treat each Lender as a Lender, entitled to payments under this Agreement and as acting through its Facility Office(s) until it has received notice from the Lender to the contrary by not less than five Business Days prior to the relevant payment.

(b) Each Lender, on the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (if it is a requirement of Dutch law that such Lender is a Professional Market Party) represents to the Finance Parties and UPC Broadband that it is a Professional Market Party. Such Lender acknowledges that the Finance Parties and UPC Broadband have relied upon such representation.

26.16 Separate divisions

In acting as an Agent, the agency division of each of the Agents shall be treated as a separate entity from its other divisions and departments. Any information acquired at any time by either Agent otherwise than in the capacity of Agent through its agency division (whether as financial adviser to any member of the Borrower Group or otherwise) may be treated as confidential by the relevant Agent and shall not be deemed to be information possessed by the relevant Agent in its capacity as such. Each Finance Party acknowledges that each Agent may, now or in the future, be in possession of, or provided with, information relating to the Obligors which has not or will not be provided to the other Finance Parties. Each Finance Party agrees that, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, neither Agent will be under any obligation to provide, or be under any liability for failure to provide, any such information to the other Finance Parties.

(i) accept a re-transfer from a New Lender of any of the rights and/or obligations assigned, transferred or novated under this Clause 33; or

(ii) support any losses incurred by the New Lender by reason of the non-performance by any Obligor of its obligations under this Agreement or otherwise.

(i) Any reference in this Agreement to a Lender includes a New Lender (to the extent rights have been assigned, transferred or novated to that New Lender and to the extent that obligations have been assumed by the New Lender) but excludes a Lender if no amount is or may be owed to or by it under this Agreement and its Additional Facility Commitment has been cancelled or reduced to nil.

(j) If any assignment, transfer or novation results, or will result by reason of circumstances existing at the time of the assignment, transfer or novation, in additional amounts becoming due under Clause 17 (Tax Gross-up and Indemnities) or amounts becoming due under Clause 19 (Increased Costs), the New Lender shall be entitled to receive such additional amounts only to the extent that the Existing Lender would have been so entitled had there been no such assignment, transfer or novation.

(iii) the rights of the Existing Lender against the existing Parties and vice versa (the discharged rights) will be cancelled;

(iv) the New Lender and the existing Parties will acquire rights against each other which differ from the discharged rights only insofar as they are exercisable by or against the New Lender instead of the Existing Lender; and

(v) the New Lender shall become, by the execution by the Facility Agent of such Novation Certificate, bound by the terms of the Security Deed as if it were an original party thereto as a Senior Beneficiary and shall acquire the same rights and assume the same obligations towards the other parties to the Security Deed as would have been acquired and assumed had the New Lender been an original party to the Security Deed as a Senior Beneficiary,

all on the later of (i) five Business Days after receipt of a Novation Certificate executed by the Existing Lender and the New Lender; (ii) the date of execution of such Novation Certificate by the Facility Agent or; (iii) the date specified in the Novation Certificate.

(ii) the Facility Agent will have no obligation to pay Pre-Transfer Accrued Interest to the New Lender;

127

(iii) such Existing Lender will continue to have the right to receive Pre-Transfer Accrued Interest.

(a) the recovering Finance Party shall, within three Business Days, notify details of the recovery to the Facility Agent;

(b) the recovering Finance Party has paid a redistribution in relation to that recovery,

each Finance Party shall, within three Business Days of demand by the recovering Finance Party through the Facility Agent, reimburse the recovering Finance Party all or the appropriate portion of the redistribution paid to that Finance Party.

This percentage will be certified by that Lender in its notice to the Facility Agent to be its reasonable determination of the cost (expressed as a percentage of that Lender’s participation in all Loans made from that Facility Office) of complying with the minimum reserve requirements of the European Central Bank in respect of loans made from that Facility Office.

4. The Additional Cost Rate for any Lender lending from a Facility Office in the United Kingdom will be calculated by the Facility Agent as follows:

in relation to an Advance in any currency other than sterling:

per cent. per annum.

Where:

E is designed to compensate the Reference Banks for amounts payable under the Fees Rules (but, for this purpose, ignoring any minimum fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules) and is calculated by the Facility Agent as being the average for the most recent rates of charge supplied by the Reference Banks to the Facility Agent pursuant to paragraph 6 below and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000.

5. For the purposes of this Schedule:

(a) Fees Rules means the rules on periodic fees contained in the FSA Supervision Manual or such other law or regulation as may be in force from time to time in respect of the payment of fees for the acceptance of deposits;

(b) Fee Tariffs means the fee tariffs specified in the Fees Rules under the activity group A.1 Deposit acceptors (ignoring any minimum fee or zero rated fee required pursuant to the Fees Rules but taking into account any applicable discount rate; and

145

6. If requested by the Facility Agent, each Reference Bank shall, as soon as practicable after publication by the Financial Services Authority, supply to the Facility Agent, the rate of charge payable by that Reference Bank to the Financial Services Authority pursuant to the Fees Rules in respect of the relevant financial year of the Financial Services Authority (calculated for this purpose by that Reference Bank as being the average of the Fee Tariffs applicable to that Reference Bank for that financial year) and expressed in pounds per £1,000,000 of the Tariff Base of that Reference Bank.

7. Each Lender shall supply any information required by the Facility Agent for the purpose of calculating its Additional Cost Rate. In particular, but without limitation, each Lender shall supply the following information on or prior to the date on which its becomes a Lender:

(a) the jurisdiction of its Facility Office; and

(b) any other information that the Facility Agent may reasonably require for such purpose.

Each Lender shall promptly notify the Facility Agent of any change to the information provided by it pursuant to this paragraph.

8. The rates of charge of each Reference Bank for the purpose of E above shall be determined by the Facility Agent based upon the information supplied to it pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 above.

10. The Facility Agent shall distribute the additional amounts received as a result of the Mandatory Costs to the Lenders on the basis of the Additional Cost Rate for each Lender based on the information provided by each Reference Bank pursuant to paragraphs 3, 6 and 7 above.

11. Any determination by the Facility Agent pursuant to this Schedule in relation to a formula, the Mandatory Cost, an Additional Cost Rate or any amount payable to a Lender shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

12. The Facility Agent may from time to time, after consultation with UPC Broadband and the Lenders, determine and notify to all Parties any amendments which are required to be made to this Schedule in order to comply with any change in law, regulation or any requirements from time to time imposed by the Bank of England, the Financial Services Authority or the European Central Bank (or, in any case, any other authority which replaces all or any of its functions) and any such determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on all Parties.

PART 2

FORM OF LSTA CONFIDENTIALITY UNDERTAKING

Master Confidentiality Agreement dated as of [ ] (this Agreement) between [Existing Lender] (the Existing Lender) and [New Lender] (the New Lender).

This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions that will apply, in each instance, to the treatment of certain non-public information that the Existing Lender may supply to the New Lender in connection with the consideration by the New Lender of its participating in any financing or proposed financing (a Financing) for any borrower or group of borrowers (each a Borrower) specified in a Schedule described below.

As used herein: (a) Evaluation Material refers to (i) the non-public information furnished to the Existing Lender, including any Information Memorandum, in respect of a particular Financing of a Borrower that the Existing Lender supplies to the New Lender on or after the date of the Schedule in respect of such Financing, (ii) all memoranda, notes, and other documents and analyses (collectively, analyses) internally developed by the Existing Lender that it supplies to the New Lender and (iii) all analyses developed by the New Lender using any information specified under clauses (i) and (ii) above; (b) Internal Evaluation Material refers to analyses specified under clause (iii) of the definition of Evaluation Material; and (c) participation refers to a transfer of a lender’s interest in a Financing (or a grant of derivative rights in respect thereof), whether by assignment, participation or otherwise (and participate and participating shall have correlative meanings thereto).

As a condition to the Existing Lender’s furnishing the New Lender with any Evaluation Material in the Existing Lender’s possession in respect of a particular Financing, the New Lender shall execute and return to the Existing Lender a schedule, in substantially the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, that the Existing Lender may have completed, executed and delivered to it (a Schedule). Each Schedule shall identify the Existing Lender and the New Lender in respect of such Financing and the related Evaluation Material, the name of each Borrower that the New Lender has under consideration and a description of the documentation (the Operative Documentation) in respect thereof.

The New Lender in respect of a particular Financing agrees that it will use all Evaluation Material in respect of such Financing solely for the purpose of evaluating its possible participation, or obtaining the participation of another eligible person (an Additional Assignee), in such Financing and that the New Lender will use reasonable precautions in accordance with its established procedures to keep such information confidential; provided, however, that any such information may be disclosed to the partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, counsel, auditors, affiliates, advisors and representatives (collectively, Representatives) of the New Lender’s institution who need to know such information for the purpose of evaluating its participation in such Financing (it being understood that such Representatives shall be informed by the New Lender of the confidential nature of such information and shall be directed by it to treat such information in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) and to any Additional Assignee and its Representatives (provided that such Additional Assignee shall have previously executed and delivered to the New Lender an agreement in substantially the same substance as this Agreement in respect of the Evaluation Material). The New Lender agrees to be responsible for any breach of this Agreement that results from the actions or omissions of its Representatives. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the New Lender will not use such information to obtain an Additional Assignee if otherwise prohibited by agreements binding on the New Lender.

In addition, the New Lender in respect of a particular Financing agrees that prior to the settlement of its participation in such Financing, it will not disclose to any person, other than its Representatives, the identity of the Existing Lender with which discussions or negotiations are taking place concerning the New Lender’s possible participation in the related Financing or any of the terms or conditions of such proposed participation. The term person as used in this Agreement shall be broadly interpreted to include the media and any corporation, partnership, group, individual or other entity and, if the

160

New Lender’s participation in the Financing would constitute a secondary market transaction, the Borrower.

The New Lender in respect of a particular Financing shall be permitted to disclose any related Evaluation Material (and the fact that such Evaluation Material has been made available to it and that discussions or negotiations are taking place concerning the transaction or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect thereto) in the event that the New Lender is required by law or regulation or requested by any governmental agency or other regulatory authority (including any self-regulatory organization having or claiming to have jurisdiction) or in connection with any legal proceedings. The New Lender agrees that it will notify the Existing Lender as soon as practical in the event of any such disclosure (other than as a result of an examination by any regulatory agency), unless such notification shall be prohibited by applicable law or legal process.

The New Lender in respect of a particular Financing and its Representatives shall have no obligation hereunder with respect to any information in any related Evaluation Material to the extent that such information (i) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the New Lender in violation of this Agreement, (ii) was within the New Lender’s possession prior to its being furnished to it pursuant hereto, provided that the source of such information was not known by the New Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the Borrower or any other party with respect to such information or (iii) is or becomes available to the New Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or the Existing Lender, or their respective Representatives, provided that such source is not known by the New Lender to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other contractual, legal or fiduciary obligation of confidentiality to the Existing Lender, the Borrower or any other party with respect to such information.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this letter, any party to this letter (and any of its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, representatives, professional advisers, or other agents) may and has since the commencement of discussions with respect to the Facility been permitted to disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind:

(a) the U.S. tax treatment and U.S. tax structure (each as defined below) of the Facility; and

(b) all material of any kind (including opinions and other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such U.S. tax treatment or U.S. tax structure,

except to the extent reasonably necessary to comply with applicable federal or state securities laws.

For the purposes of this subsection, the U.S. tax treatment of the Facility is the purported or claimed U.S. federal, state and local income tax treatment of the Facility, and the U.S. tax structure of the Facility is any fact that may be relevant to understanding the purported or claimed U.S. federal, state and local income tax treatment of the Facility. This authorisation is not intended to permit disclosure of any information (other than information relating to U.S. tax treatment or U.S. tax structure of the Facility) including (without limitation) (i) any portion of any materials to the extent not related to the U.S. tax treatment or U.S. tax structure of the Facility, (ii) the identities of participants or potential participants in the Facility (except to the extent such identities are related to the tax treatment or the U.S. tax structure of the Facility), (iii) the existence or status of any negotiations, (iv) any pricing or financial information (except to the extent such pricing or financial information is related to the U.S. tax treatment or the U.S. tax structure of the Facility), or (v) any other term or detail not relevant to the U.S. tax treatment or the U.S. tax structure of the Facility.

To the extent the Operative Documentation for a particular Financing contains provisions regarding the use of non-public information which conflict with, are more restrictive than or are in addition to the provisions of this Agreement, then (so long as such Operative Documentation shall be effective as

161

to the Existing Lender) solely with application to any Evaluation Material concerning the Borrower that is the subject of such Financing (and without application hereunder to any other Evaluation Material or otherwise), such provisions of the Operative Documentation shall be incorporated herein by this reference and shall supersede and control the terms of this Agreement to the extent that such provisions are in conflict with or more restrictive than the terms hereof or are in addition to those contained herein. Upon the New Lender’s request, the Existing Lender will furnish to the New Lender the provisions of the Operative Documentation for such Financing regarding the use of non-public information. In addition, in the event that the New Lender actually becomes a lender (bound as a party to the Operative Documentation) with respect to a particular Financing, the application of this Agreement in respect of all Evaluation Material in respect of such Financing shall terminate and the applicable confidentiality provisions, if any, contained in the Operative Documentation shall govern and control.

If the New Lender in respect of a particular Financing chooses not to participate in such Financing, the New Lender agrees on request of the Existing Lender to return to the Existing Lender as soon as practical all related Evaluation Material (other than Internal Evaluation Material) or destroy such Evaluation Material (other than Internal Evaluation Material) without retaining any copies thereof unless prohibited from doing so by its internal policies and procedures.

The New Lender agrees that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for breach of this Agreement, and that in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity, the Existing Lender shall be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and specific performance, without proof of actual damages.

This Agreement (including each Schedule delivered pursuant hereto and the provisions of any Operative Documentation incorporated herein by reference) embodies the entire understanding and agreement between the parties with respect to all Evaluation Material for each Financing and supersedes all prior understandings and agreements relating thereto. Unless otherwise agreed in writing between the parties hereto, the application of this Agreement shall terminate with respect to all Evaluation Material concerning each Financing on the date falling one year after the Schedule in respect of such Financing.

This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the law of the State of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law (except Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligation Law to the extent that it mandates that the law of the State of New York govern).
