The Borrower undertakes that all payments made to the Lender under this Agreement shall be free of any Withholding Tax.

If a Withholding Tax is required by law, the Borrower undertakes to gross-up the amount of any such payment to such amount which leaves the Lender with an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no payment of Withholding Tax had been required.

The Borrower shall reimburse to the Lender all expenses and/or Taxes for the Borrower’s account which have been paid by the Lender (if applicable), with the exception of any Taxes due in France.
