Toronto, Ontario, March 28, 2024 - Hudbay Minerals Inc. ("Hudbay" or the "company") (TSX, NYSE: HBM) today released its annual mineral reserve and resource update and issued new three-year production guidance. All amounts are in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted.

"Our updated mineral reserve estimates and three-year production outlook demonstrate Hudbay's high-quality operating platform with annual production of more than 150,000 tonnes of copper and 270,000 ounces of gold from three long-life mines located in tier-one mining friendly jurisdictions in the Americas," said Peter Kukielski, Hudbay's President and Chief Executive Officer. "We saw strong reserve conversion in Peru after successful geotechnical work confirmed the addition of another mining phase at Constancia, extending the mine life to 2041, and we continued to progress drill permitting activities for the high-potential exploration satellites in Peru. Manitoba exploration efforts are focused on advancing the largest geophysical and drilling program in our history in Snow Lake to test the newly acquired land claims for another anchor deposit and extend the mine life well beyond 2038. Our Copper Mountain mine has a robust copper production profile over its 21-year mine life as reflected in the recent technical report. We already have a resilient operating platform delivering stable copper production and complementary gold production, and we expect to continue to add to our robust production outlook by leveraging our proven track record of delivering value through exploration and development as we advance our quality pipeline of growth assets." Constancia is Hudbay's 100% owned copper operation located in the province of Chumbivilcas in southern Peru and consists of the Constancia and Pampacancha deposits.

Constancia Operations

Current mineral reserve estimates total 548 million tonnes at 0.27% copper containing approximately 1.5 million tonnes of copper. Constancia's expected mine life has been extended by three years to 2041 as a result of the successful conversion of mineral resources to mineral reserves with the addition of a further mining phase at the Constancia pit following positive geotechnical drilling and studies in 2023. There remains potential for future mine life extensions based on the mineral resources that have not yet been converted to mineral reserves.

Hudbay continues to mine the high-grade Pampacancha satellite deposit located approximately six kilometres from the Constancia processing plant. Mining at the Pampacancha pit commenced in 2021 and is expected to extend until the third quarter of 2025, resulting in continued higher copper and gold production over this period. Annual production at the Constancia operations is expected to average approximately 101,000i tonnes of copper and 62,000i ounces of gold over the next three years.

Current mineral reserves and resources (exclusive of reserves) for Constancia and Pampacancha as of January 1, 2024 are summarized below.

Note: totals may not add up correctly due to rounding.

1 Mineral resources are exclusive of mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.

2 Mineral resource estimates are based on resource pit design and do not include factors for mining recovery or dilution.

3 The open pit mineral resources are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of $6.40 per tonne and assuming metallurgical recoveries (applied by ore type) of 86% for copper on average for the life of mine, while the underground inferred resources at Constancia Norte are based on a 0.65% copper cut-off grade.

4 Mineral reserves are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of $6.40 per tonne at Pampacancha, $7.30 per tonne at Constancia and assuming metallurgical recoveries (applied by ore type) of 86% for copper on average for the life of mine.

5 Long-term metal prices of $4.00 per pound copper, $12.00 per pound molybdenum, $1,700 per ounce gold and $23.00 per ounce silver were used to confirm the economic viability of the mineral reserve estimates and to estimate mineral resources.

Maria Reyna and Caballito Exploration

Hudbay controls a large, contiguous block of mineral rights with the potential to host satellite mineral deposits in close proximity to the Constancia processing facility, including the past producing Caballito property and the highly prospective Maria Reyna property. The company commenced early exploration activities at Maria Reyna and Caballito after completing a surface rights exploration agreement with the community of Uchucarcco in August 2022. A drill permit application was submitted for the Maria Reyna property in November 2023, and a similar application for the Caballito property is planned for the first half of 2024. In parallel, Hudbay continues to advance community engagement activities. Surface mapping and geochemical sampling confirm that both Caballito and Maria Reyna host sulfide and oxide rich copper mineralization in skarns, hydrothermal breccias and large porphyry intrusive bodies, as shown in Figure 1.

Snow Lake Operations

Hudbay's 100% owned Snow Lake operations in Manitoba include the Lalor gold, copper and zinc mine, the New Britannia gold mill, the Stall base metals concentrator and several satellite deposits. Current mineral reserve estimates in Snow Lake total 17 million tonnes with approximately 2 million ounces in contained gold, and the expected mine life of the Snow Lake operations continues to extend until 2038. The Snow Lake operations continue to achieve higher gold production levels due to the New Britannia mill operating at 10% above design capacity in 2023, the recent completion of the Stall mill recovery improvement project and the implementation of several optimization initiatives at the Lalor mine to improve the quality of ore production and minimize waste dilution. The company also increased its land package in Snow Lake by 250% in 2023, as shown in Figure 2, and has since launched the largest Snow Lake exploration program in the company's history to explore the highly prospective land package for new discoveries to maximize and extend the life of the Snow Lake operations beyond 2038.

Infill drilling at Lalor in 2023 resulted in the successful conversion of high value gold material from inferred resources to mineral reserves. There remains another 1.4 million ounces of gold contained in inferred resources in Snow Lake that have the potential to maintain strong annual gold production levels beyond 2030 and further extend the mine life in Snow Lake. The company is advancing an access drift at the nearby 1901 deposit to enable infill drilling aimed at converting the inferred mineral resources in the gold lenses to mineral reserves.

The Snow Lake mineral reserve and mineral resource estimates include the copper-gold WIM deposit, the gold-rich 3 Zone and the zinc-rich Watts, Pen II and Talbot deposits, which have the potential to provide feed for the Stall and New Britannia processing facilities and further extend the life of the Snow Lake operations. Hudbay is also conducting geophysical and drilling programs on the newly acquired land in Snow Lake, including the Cook Lake claims and the former Rockcliff claims, as discussed further below.

Hudbay has been executing a multi-phased gold strategy in Snow Lake since 2019, which has resulted in increased annual gold production from optimization initiatives, including higher processing capacity and gold recoveries since the start-up of the New Britannia mill in late 2021. As a result, annual gold production from Snow Lake increased from 69,657 ounces in 2020 to 146,233 ounces in 2022, New Britannia's first full year of production. The New Britannia mill achieved record throughput levels averaging 1,650 tonnes per day in 2023, exceeding its design capacity of 1,500 tonnes per day, which contributed to record annual gold production of 187,363 ounces in 2023. Annual gold production from Snow Lake is expected to average 185,000i ounces over the next three years, in line with 2023 levels.

Current mineral reserves and resources (exclusive of reserves) for Lalor, 1901 and other Snow Lake satellite deposits as of January 1, 2024 are summarized below.

2024 Snow Lake Exploration Program

The planned 2024 exploration program is Hudbay's largest Snow Lake program in the company's history and consists of modern geophysical programs and multi-phased drilling campaigns:

• Modern geophysics program - A majority of the newly acquired Cook Lake and former Rockcliff claims have been untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor deposit. A large geophysics program is currently underway consisting of surface electromagnetic surveys using cutting-edge techniques that enable the team to detect targets at depths of almost 1,000 metres below surface.
• Multi-phased drilling program - The winter 2024 surface drill program is underway with eight drill rigs that are currently focused on testing the deep extensions of the gold and copper zones at Lalor and completing follow up drilling at the Lalor Northwest target, as shown in Figure 3. The drill rigs will be relocated to the Cook Lake and Rockcliff claims later in the 2024 season to test additional geophysical targets.

The goal of the 2024 exploration program is to test mineralized extensions of the Lalor deposit and to find a new anchor deposit within trucking distance of the Snow Lake processing infrastructure, which has the potential to extend the life of the Snow Lake operations beyond 2038.

Advancing Access to the 1901 Deposit

The 1901 deposit was discovered by Hudbay in 2019 and is located within 1,000 metres of the existing underground haulage ramp to Lalor. The deposit consists of a series of zinc and gold-rich lenses that were defined by surface drilling and pre-feasibility studies conducted between 2019 and 2021. In early 2024, the company commenced the development of an access drift from the existing Lalor ramp, which is expected to enable underground drill platforms for diamond drilling to further confirm the optimal mining method to extract the base metal and gold lenses and to convert the inferred mineral resources in the gold lenses to mineral reserves. The 1901 development and exploration drift program is expected to take place over 2024 and 2025. For further information, please see Figure 4.

Copper Mountain Mine

Current mineral reserve estimates at the Copper Mountain mine total 367 million tonnes at 0.25% copper and 0.12 grams per tonne gold with approximately 900 thousand tonnes of contained copper and 1.4 million ounces of contained gold. Hudbay acquired Copper Mountain as part of its acquisition of Copper Mountain Mining Corporation in June 2023 and holds a 75% interest in the mine with Mitsubishi Materials Corp. holding the remaining 25% interest. The current mineral reserve estimates support a 21-year mine life, as previously disclosed on December 5, 2023 in the company's first NI 43-101 technical report in respect of the Copper Mountain mine.

As detailed in the technical report, the mine plan contemplates average annual copper production of 46,500 tonnes in the first five years, 45,000 tonnes in the first ten years and 37,000 tonnes over the 21-year mine life. The updated mine plan represents an approximate 90% increase in average annual copper production and an approximate 50% decrease in cash costs over the first 10 years compared to 2022 levels.

Hudbay's mine plan for Copper Mountain is based on a revised resource model that was constructed using the same methods applied at the Constancia, Copper World and Mason deposits. There exists significant upside potential for reserve conversion and extending mine life beyond 21 years through an additional 140 million tonnes of measured and indicated resources at 0.21% copper and 0.10 grams per tonne gold and 370 million tonnes of inferred resources at 0.25% copper and 0.13 grams per tonne gold, in each case, exclusive of mineral reserves.

Since completing the acquisition of Copper Mountain in June 2023, Hudbay has been focused on advancing its plans to stabilize the Copper Mountain mine over the next few years to improve reliability and drive sustainable long-term value. This includes increasing mining activities by remobilizing the idle mining fleet from 14 trucks to 28 trucks, accelerating stripping to access higher grades, and improving mill throughput and recoveries with a more consistent ore feed grade and several planned mill enhancement projects. The new technical report filed in December 2023 reflects Hudbay's base case stabilization plan.

3-Year Production Outlook

The consolidated copper and gold production guidance demonstrates the continued strong growth from the successful completion of brownfield investments in Peru and Manitoba and the enhanced operating platform with the acquisition of Copper Mountain. Consolidated copper production over the next three years is expected to average 153,000i tonnes, representing an increase of 16% from 2023 levels. Consolidated gold production over the next three years is expected to average 272,500i ounces, reflecting continued high annual gold production levels in Manitoba and a smoothing of Pampacancha high grade gold zones in Peru over the 2023 to 2025 period, as further described below.

Peru's three-year production guidance reflects continued higher copper and gold grades from Pampacancha into the third quarter of 2025. Mill ore feed throughout 2024 and 2025 is expected to revert to the typical one-third from Pampacancha and two-thirds from Constancia until the depletion of Pampacancha, unlike 2023 when a majority of the ore feed was from Pampacancha in the second half of the year. Gold production reflects a smoothing of Pampacancha high grade gold zones over the 2023 to 2025 period as additional high grade areas were mined in 2023 ahead of schedule, resulting in gold production exceeding 2023 guidance levels, and other high grade areas being deferred to 2025. Total expected gold production in Peru over the 2023 to 2025 period is higher than previous expectations with 2025 gold production now expected to total 80,000i, compared to 58,500i ounces in the company's previous guidance.

	TSX, NYSE - HBM 2024 No. 4

Manitoba's three-year production guidance reflects continued strong gold production levels averaging 185,000i ounces per year as the Snow Lake operations have achieved steady levels after the successful refurbishment and optimization of the New Britannia mill, the completion of the Stall mill recovery improvement program and the improvement in the quality of ore production and operating efficiencies at the Lalor mine. The production guidance anticipates Lalor operating at 4,500 tonnes per day and an increase in New Britannia mill throughput to 1,800 tonnes per day starting in 2024 given the mill has been consistently operating above its 1,500 tonnes per day nameplate capacity. Zinc production is expected to decline over the next three years as the Lalor mine continues to prioritize higher grade gold and copper zones.

British Columbia's three-year production guidance reflects sequentially higher annual copper production as a result of the implementation of several improvement initiatives as part of the company's stabilization plan. The Copper Mountain production guidance ranges in 2024 and 2025 are wider than typical ranges and coincide with the operation ramp up activities over the stabilization period. Copper production at the Copper Mountain mine is expected to increase by 32%i in 2026 compared to 2024, reflecting operational improvements consistent with the NI 43-101 technical report for Copper Mountain issued in December 2023.

Copper World Project

The 100% owned Copper World project is located in Pima County, Arizona, approximately 50 kilometres southeast of Tucson. The Copper World project includes seven deposits discovered in 2021, together with the East deposit (formerly known as the Rosemont deposit). The new deposits were defined after the completion of an expanded drill program following a successful initial drill program in 2020. A new resource model was completed for the preliminary economic assessment ("PEA") of Copper World in 2022, which contemplated a two-phased mine plan with Phase I as a standalone operation requiring state and local permits only and Phase II expanding onto federal lands requiring federal permits.

In September 2023, Hudbay released its enhanced pre-feasibility study ("PFS") for Copper World reflecting the results of further technical work on Phase I of the project. Phase I has a mine life of 20 years, which is four years longer than the Phase I mine life that was presented in the PEA, largely due to an increase in the capacity for tailings and waste deposition as a result of optimizing the site layout. Phase II is expected to involve an expansion on to federal lands with a significantly longer mine life and enhanced project economics. Phase II would be subject to the federal permitting process and was not included in the PFS results.

The first key state permit required for Copper World, the Mined Land Reclamation Plan, was initially approved by the Arizona State Mine Inspector in October 2021 and was subsequently amended to reflect a larger private land project footprint. This approval was challenged in state court, but the challenge was dismissed in May 2023. In late 2022, Hudbay submitted the applications for an Aquifer Protection Permit and an Air Quality Permit to the Arizona Department of Environmental Quality. Hudbay expects to receive these two outstanding state permits in 2024.

Based on the PFS, Phase I contemplates average annual copper production of 85,000 tonnes over a 20-year mine life, at average cash costs and sustaining cash costs of $1.47 and $1.81 per pound of copperiii, respectively. A variable cut-off grade strategy allows for higher mill head grades in the first ten years, which increases annual production to approximately 92,000 tonnes of copper at average cash costs and sustaining cash costs of $1.53 and $1.95 per pound of copperiii, respectively.

At a copper price of $3.75 per pound, the after-tax net present value ("NPV") of Phase I using an 8% discount rate is $1.1 billion and the internal rate of return ("IRR") is 19%. The valuation metrics are leveraged to higher copper prices and at a price of $4.25 per pound, the after-tax NPV (8%) of Phase I increases to $1.7 billion, and the IRR increases to 25.5%.

Copper World is one of the highest-grade open pit copper projects in the Americasiv with proven and probable mineral reserves of 385 million tonnes at 0.54% copper. There remains approximately 60% of the total copper contained in measured and indicated mineral resources (exclusive of mineral reserves), providing significant potential for Phase II expansion and mine life extension. In addition, the inferred mineral resource estimates are at a comparable copper grade and also provide significant upside potential.

Current mineral reserves and resources (exclusive of reserves) for the Copper World project as of January 1, 2024 are summarized below.

Note: totals may not add up correctly due to rounding.

1 Mineral resource estimates are exclusive of mineral reserves. CIM definitions were followed for the estimation of mineral resources. Mineral resources that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

2 Long term metal prices of $4.00 per pound copper, $12.00 per pound molybdenum, $1,700 per ounce gold and $23.00 per ounce silver were used to confirm the economic viability of the mineral reserve estimates.

3 Mineral reserve estimates are limited to the portion of the measured and indicated resource estimates scheduled for milling and included in the financial model of the Copper World PFS.

3 Mineral resources are constrained within a computer-generated pit using the Lerchs-Grossman algorithm.

4 Mineral resource estimates were reported using a 0.1% copper cut-off grade and an oxidation ratio lower than 50% for flotation material and a 0.1% soluble copper cut-off grade and an oxidation ratio higher than 50% for leach material.

5 Long-term metals prices of $3.75 per pound copper, $12.00 per pound molybdenum, $1,650 per ounce gold and $22.00 per ounce silver were used to estimate mineral resources.

6 Estimate of the mineral reserve does not account for marginal amounts of historical small-scale operations in the area that occurred between 1870 and 1970 and is estimated to have extracted approximately 200,000 tonnes, which is within rounding approximations of the current reserve estimates.

Mason Project

The Mason project is a 100% owned greenfield copper deposit located in the historic Yerington District of Nevada and is one of the largest undeveloped copper porphyry deposits in North America. The Mason project's measured and indicated mineral resources are comparable in size to Constancia. Hudbay views the Mason project as a long-term future development asset as part of the company's pipeline of high-quality copper growth opportunities. Since acquiring Mason, Hudbay has consolidated a prospective package of patented and unpatented mining claims contiguous to the Mason project and has advanced a number of technical studies, including a revised resource model and the completion of a PEA on Mason.

	TSX, NYSE - HBM 2024 No. 4

The Mason PEA was completed in April 2021 and contemplates a 27-year mine life with average annual copper production of approximately 140,000 tonnes over the first ten years of full production. At a copper price of $3.50 per pound, the after-tax net present value using a 10% discount rate is $1,191 million and the internal rate of return is 18%. For information regarding the limitations of a PEA, please refer to the Qualified Person and NI 43-101 statement at the end of this news release.

Since 2021, the company completed a geophysical program and additional drilling at Mason, while continuing to focus on local stakeholder engagement. For the first time since Hudbay acquired the Mason project, Hudbay initiated a drill program in September 2023 to test satellite deposits which confirmed the occurrence of high-grade skarn mineralization near the historical mines potentially amenable to open pit mining but of limited spatial extent. Hudbay is currently compiling and analyzing the results from the 2023 drilling. Additional metallurgical studies are underway with the objective of further enhancing the project economics.

Current mineral resource estimates for Mason as of January 1, 2024 are summarized below.

Note: totals may not add up correctly due to rounding.

1 Mineral resource estimates that are not mineral reserves do not have demonstrated economic viability.

2 Mineral resource estimates do not include factors for mining recovery or dilution.

3 Metal prices of $3.10 per pound copper, $11.00 per pound molybdenum, $1,500 per ounce gold, and $18.00 per ounce silver were used to estimate mineral resources.

4 Mineral resources are estimated using a minimum NSR cut-off of $6.25 per tonne.

5 Mineral resources are based on resource pit designs containing measured, indicated, and inferred mineral resources.

Llaguen Project

The Llaguen project is a 100% owned copper-molybdenum porphyry deposit located near the city of Trujillo, the third largest city in Peru. Llaguen is at moderate altitude and in close proximity to existing infrastructure, water and power supply, including the port of Salaverry located 62 kilometres away and the Trujillo Nueva electric power substation located 40 kilometres away. Hudbay completed a 28-hole confirmatory drill program in 2021 and 2022 which confirmed and extended the footprint of the known mineralization and highlighted the existence of a high-grade zone in the center of the deposit.

After completing an initial mineral resource estimate in November 2022, Hudbay initiated preliminary technical studies, including metallurgical test work as well as geotechnical and hydrogeological studies, which are expected to be incorporated into a preliminary economic assessment for the Llaguen project. Additional exploration drilling is warranted on the Llaguen property to test the areas of the deposit that remain open and the several untested geophysical targets in the area to fully define the regional extent of the mineralization. The current mineral resource is also surrounded by a large halo of low grade hypogene copper mineralization, not currently included in the mineral resource estimate, but for which metallurgical test work could assess the potential for economic sulfide heap leaching via commercially available technologies.

Current mineral resource estimates for Llaguen as of January 1, 2024 are summarized below.

Flin Flon Opportunities

Unlocking Value Through Tailings Reprocessing

Hudbay is advancing studies to evaluate the opportunity to reprocess Flin Flon tailings where more than 100 million tonnes of tailings have been deposited for over 90 years from the mill and the zinc plant. Please refer to Figure 5 for an aerial view of the tailings facility. The studies are evaluating the potential to use the existing Flin Flon concentrator, which is currently on care and maintenance after the closure of the 777 mine in 2022, with flow sheet modifications to reprocess tailings to recover critical minerals and precious metals while creating environmental and social benefits for the region. The company is completing metallurgical test work and an early economic study to evaluate the tailings reprocessing opportunity.

• Zinc plant tailings - Hudbay operated a hydrometallurgical zinc facility where high grade critical minerals and precious metals were deposited for more than 25 years. Hudbay is currently completing a confirmatory drill program over this facility.
• Mill tailings - Initial confirmatory drilling completed in 2022 indicated higher zinc, copper and silver grades than predicted from historical mill records while confirming the historical gold grade. In 2023, Hudbay advanced metallurgical test work and evaluated metallurgical technologies, including the signing of a test work co-operation agreement with Cobalt Blue Holdings ("COB") examining the use of COB technology to treat Flin Flon mill tailings. Initial results from preliminary roasting test work were encouraging in converting more than 90% of pyrite into pyrrhotite and low-carbon sulphur, and the project has been advanced to the next stage of testing.
• Reducing environmental footprint - The tailings reprocessing opportunity is expected to reduce acid-generating properties of the tailings, which would improve the environmental impacts through higher quality water in the tailings facility and reduce the need for long-term water treatment.

Marubeni Flin Flon Exploration Partnership

In March 2024, Hudbay entered into an option agreement (the "Marubeni Option Agreement") with Marubeni Corporation ("Marubeni"), pursuant to which Hudbay has granted Marubeni's wholly-owned Canadian subsidiary an option to acquire a 20% interest in three projects located within trucking distance of Hudbay's processing facilities in the Flin Flon area. Pursuant to the Marubeni Option Agreement, Marubeni must fund a minimum of C$12 million in exploration expenditures over a period of approximately five years in order to exercise its option. All three properties hold past producing mines that generated meaningful production with attractive grades of both base metals and precious metals. The properties remain highly prospective with potential for further discovery based on the attractive geological setting, limited historical deep drilling and promising geochemical and geophysical targets.

Upon successful completion of Marubeni's earn-in obligations and the exercise of the option, a joint venture will be formed to hold the selected projects with Hudbay, acting as operator, holding an 80% interest and Marubeni indirectly holding the remaining 20% interest.

Figure 2: Hudbay Expanded Land Package in Snow Lake
Hudbay increased its land package in Snow Lake by 250% in 2023 and has since launched the largest geophysics and drilling exploration program in the company's history in Snow Lake. The 2024 program includes surface electromagnetic surveys using modern technology to target depths up to 1,000 metres. A majority of the newly acquired claims have been untested by modern deep geophysics, which was the discovery method for the Lalor deposit.

Figure 3: Lalor 2024 Winter Drill Program

A winter 2024 surface drill program is currently underway at Lalor focused on completing follow-up drilling from the first step-out drill program in 2023. The drill rigs continue to test the down-plunge extensions of Lalor and the Lalor Northwest target.

2.4 Term and Repayment

The Credit shall be repaid in full and cancelled on or before the Maturity Date. If no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower may request that the Maturity Date be extended by up to one year on each request in accordance with the procedures specified in this Section 2.5. All payments hereunder shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following circumstances: (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of any order accepted by a Lender as a B/A; or (b) the existence of any claim, set off, defence or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against the holder of a B/A, a Lender or any other Person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.

2.5 Extension

(a) The Borrower shall, if it wishes to extend the Maturity Date of the Credit, make a request to each Lender by written notice given to the Agent not later than 60 days prior to the Maturity Date; provided that: (i)  the Borrower shall not be entitled to make more than one such request in any calendar year and (ii) no such notice shall be effective unless the Borrower (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) has delivered a written notice pursuant to Section 2.5 of the HB Peru ARCA that it wishes to extend the "Maturity Date" (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA). Each Lender shall provide a written response to that request to the Agent within 30 days; provided that no such response shall be effective unless such Lender and/or any of its Affiliates who are Lenders (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) under the HB Peru ARCA have collectively provided the same response (accepting or declining the proposed extension under the HB Peru ARCA) and if such notices are not the same such Lender shall be deemed to have declined such extension request under both this Agreement and the HB Peru ARCA. Promptly thereafter, the Agent shall notify the Borrower of the response of the Lenders, and shall include the names of all Declining Lenders (such notice, the "Accepting Lender Notice").

(b) If all of the Lenders agree to extend the Maturity Date, the Maturity Date shall be extended by 365 days from the then applicable Maturity Date.

(d) If the aggregate amount of the Commitments of the Accepting Lenders are equal to or greater than 66⅔% but less than 100% of the aggregate Commitments of all Lenders, unless the Borrower elects not to extend the Maturity Date by giving a further written notice to the Agent to that effect within 10 days after the Agent notifies the Borrower of the Lenders' response, the Maturity Date shall be extended by one year from the then applicable Maturity Date provided that the Borrower has, before the then applicable Maturity Date, replaced or cancelled the Commitments of all Declining Lenders in the following manner:

(i) The Borrower may, at any time on or before the 10th Banking Day following the receipt of the Accepting Lender Notice, by written request to the Agent (each, an "Acquisition Request Notice"), a copy of which shall be provided by the Agent to each Lender within one Banking Day of the Agent receiving same, request that the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders be assigned in accordance with this Section 2.4 and the following shall apply:

(A) Any Accepting Lender may, at its option, acquire all or any portion of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders under the Loan Documents (all of such rights and obligations being herein called the "Available Amount") by giving written notice to the Agent (an "Acquisition Notice") of the portion of the Available Amount which it is prepared to acquire (the "Desired Acquisition Amount") provided that it and/or any of its Affiliates who are Lenders (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) under the HB Peru ARCA have collectively provided an identical Acquisition Notice (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) (with only such changes as are necessary to reflect the involvement of such Affiliate) under Section 2.5 of HB Peru ARCA. Such Acquisition Notice shall be given within 10 days following the giving of the Acquisition Request Notice by the Borrower to the Agent (such deadline being herein called the "Acquisition Deadline"). If only one Accepting Lender gives an Acquisition Notice to the Agent or if more than one Accepting Lender gives an Acquisition Notice to the Agent but the aggregate of their Desired Acquisition Amounts is less than or equal to the Available Amount, then each such Accepting Lender shall be entitled to acquire its Desired Acquisition Amount of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders under the Loan Documents. If more than one Accepting Lender gives an Acquisition Notice to the Agent and the aggregate of the Desired Acquisition Amounts is greater than the Available Amount, then each such Accepting Lender shall be entitled to acquire a pro rata share of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders under the Loan Documents, such pro rata share being determined based on the relative Desired Acquisition Amount of each such Accepting Lender.

(B) Promptly following the Acquisition Deadline, the Agent shall give to the Borrower and each Lender a written notice identifying the Available Amount of each Declining Lender and the portion thereof to be acquired by each Accepting Lender. Each of such acquisitions shall be completed on the date which is five Banking Days following the Acquisition Deadline, in accordance with the procedures set out in Section 11.2.

(C) If the Available Amount is not completely acquired by the Accepting Lenders, the Borrower may locate New Lenders, to acquire all or a portion of the balance of the rights and obligations of the Declining Lenders under the Loan Documents on the date which is 20 Banking Days following the Acquisition Deadline, in accordance with the procedures set out in Section 11.2.

(D) Any outstanding Commitment of the Declining Lenders which is not acquired by Accepting Lenders or New Lenders under Sections 2.5(d)(i)(B) or 2.5(d)(i)(C) shall be repaid by the Borrower, and the Commitments of the Declining Lenders not so acquired shall be cancelled on the then applicable Maturity Date and the amount of the Credit shall thereupon be reduced by the aggregate of the Commitments so cancelled, if any.

2.6 Interest Rates and Fees

(a) The Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (i) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to Prime Rate, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Term SOFR, CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA or Term CORRA, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, Prime Rate, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR, CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA, Term CORRA or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (ii) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes.  The Agent and its affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of Prime Rate, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA, Term CORRA or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower.  The Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain Prime Rate, Base Rate, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR, CORRA, Daily Compounded CORRA, Term CORRA or any other Benchmark, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

(b) Interest rates on Prime Rate Advances, Base Rate Advances, B/A Equivalent Loans and SOFR Advances and the rates for calculation of B/A Fees and L/C Fees shall, subject to Section 8.1(d), be determined on a Pricing Date in accordance with the table set forth below based on the Total Net Debt to EBITDA Ratio based on the Compliance Certificate delivered in respect of the most recently completed fiscal quarter, as applicable, and the applicable interest rate established on a Pricing Date shall remain in effect until the next Pricing Date. If the Borrower has not delivered its financial statements and Compliance Certificate by the date such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered under Section 8.3 hereof, until such financial statements and Compliance Certificate are delivered, the applicable interest rate/fee shall, on the first day after the latest date by which the Borrower was so required to provide such financial statements and Compliance Certificate, be set at Level V. Each determination of the applicable interest rate/fee made by the Agent in accordance with the foregoing shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders if reasonably determined.

All figures in the table represent per cent per annum. Each of the amounts specified above, other than the standby fees, shall be increased by 2% per annum if a Default has occurred and is continuing. If a Default is disclosed by a Compliance Certificate, any increase shall be applied beginning as of the end of the fiscal period to which the Compliance Certificate relates.

(c) Interest shall accrue and be payable on Prime Rate Advances and Base Rate Advances at the Prime Rate or the Base Rate, respectively, plus the relevant figure shown under "Prime Rate and Base Rate Advances" in the table in Section 2.6(b). The rate for calculation of B/A Fees shall be the relevant figure shown under "SOFR Margin/BA and Other Advances" in that table. The rate for calculation of L/C Fees for financial Letters of Credit shall be the relevant figure shown under "L/C Fee (financial L/C)" in that table. The rate for calculation of L/C Fees for performance Letters of Credit shall be the relevant figure shown under "L/C Fee (performance L/C)" in that table.

(d) The Borrower shall pay interest on each SOFR Advance made or maintained by a Lender and such Advance shall bear interest during each Interest Period it is outstanding (computed on the basis of a year of three-hundred and sixty (360) days and actual days elapsed) on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such SOFR Advance is advanced or continued, or created by conversion from a Base Rate Advance, until maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the SOFR Margin plus the Adjusted Term SOFR applicable to such Interest Period, payable by the Borrower on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise).

(e) The Borrower shall pay interest and fees at the applicable rate specified in Section 2.6(b) to the Agent at the Branch of Account on Advances outstanding from time to time, except that the B/A Fee for any B/A shall be paid by each Lender deducting the B/A Fee from the proceeds of the B/A remitted to the Agent pursuant to Section 6.8(c). The Borrower shall pay interest on Prime Rate Advance, Base Rate Advances and SOFR Advances on each Interest Payment Date. The Borrower shall pay L/C Fees quarterly in arrears on the first Banking Day following each of the Borrower's fiscal quarters.

(f) The Borrower shall pay a standby fee on the daily unadvanced portions of the Credit (which for clarity shall, for the purposes of this Section 2.6(f), be equal to the Maximum Available Amount less any amounts outstanding hereunder) at the rate specified under "Standby Fee" in the table in Section 2.6(b). The standby fee shall be calculated daily beginning on the Effective Date and shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first Banking Day following each of the Borrower's fiscal quarters. On final payment of the Obligations, the Borrower shall also pay any accrued but unpaid standby fees.

(g) The Agent shall distribute interest and fees for the Credit to the Lenders based on their respective Applicable Percentages.

2.7 Other Fees

(a) The Borrower shall, concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, pay: (i) non-refundable upfront fees as separately agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders; and (ii) a non-refundable arrangement fee as separately agreed between the Borrower and the Arrangers.

(b) The Borrower shall also pay agency fees to the Agent, and the Borrower shall also pay fronting fees relating to L/Cs to the relevant Issuing Bank, in each case in accordance with the Fee Agreements.

2.8 Exchange Rate Fluctuations

If fluctuations in rates of exchange in effect between US Dollars and other relevant currencies cause the amount of Advances (expressed in US Dollars) to exceed the maximum amount of the Credit permitted in this Agreement at any time by 3% or more, the Borrower shall immediately on demand pay the Lenders such amount as is necessary to repay the excess above the permitted maximum amount of the Credit. If the Borrower is unable to immediately do so because Interest Periods have not ended, B/As have not matured or L/Cs are outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately on demand post Cash Collateral with the Agent in the amount of the excess, and that Cash Collateral shall be held as security for the Obligations until the amount of the excess is paid in full. If, on the date of any Advance (whether by rollover, conversion or otherwise), the amount of Advances (expressed in US Dollars) exceeds the maximum amount of the Credit permitted herein because of fluctuations in rates of exchange, the Borrower shall immediately pay the Lenders the excess and shall not be entitled to any Advance that would result in the amount of the Credit being exceeded.

2.9 Credit Excess

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement (other than Section 2.8), if at any time the aggregate principal amount of all Advances exceeds the Maximum Available Amount, the Borrower shall immediately repay the aggregate outstanding Advances to the extent required to eliminate such excess. If the Borrower is unable to immediately do so because Interest Periods have not ended, B/As have not matured or L/Cs are outstanding, the Borrower shall immediately on demand post Cash Collateral with the Agent in the amount of the excess, and that Cash Collateral shall be held as security for the Obligations until the amount of the excess is paid in full.

2.10 Pari Passu

Subject to Section 9.11, all amounts owing in respect of the Obligations and the Other Secured Obligations shall rank pari passu with each other. Notwithstanding that any Person ceases to be a Lender for any reason, Other Secured Obligations shall not cease to rank pari passu with the Obligations (and secured by any security that may be held from time to time by or for the benefit of the Lenders) without the prior written consent of the applicable former Lender or Affiliate to whom the Other Secured Obligations are owed. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Other Secured Obligations owing to a Person who has ceased to be a Lender or its Affiliates shall not include any such Other Secured Obligations incurred on or after the date such Person has ceased to be a Lender for any reason.

2.11 Termination of SOFR Advances

(a) If at any time a Lender determines, acting reasonably, (which determination shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower) that:

(i) SOFR and its constituent parts does not adequately reflect the effective cost to the Lender of making or maintaining a SOFR Advance; or

(ii) it cannot readily obtain or retain funds in order to fund or maintain any SOFR Advance for a SOFR Interest Period selected by the Borrower or cannot otherwise perform its obligations hereunder with respect to any SOFR Advance for any such period;

then the Lender shall inform the Agent and upon at least four Banking Days' written notice by the Agent to the Borrower; and

(iii) the right of the Borrower to request SOFR Advances for such period from that Lender shall be and remain suspended until the Agent notifies the Borrower that any condition causing such determination no longer exists; and

(iv) without limiting Section 13.15, if the Lender is prevented from maintaining a SOFR Advance, the Borrower shall, at its option, either repay the SOFR Advance to that Lender or convert the SOFR Advance into other forms of Advance which are permitted by this Agreement, and the Borrower shall be responsible for any loss or expense that the Lender incurs as a result, including Breakage Costs, if the Lender is prevented from maintaining a SOFR Advance.

2.12 Discontinuance of CDOR

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (other than Derivatives):

(a) Replacing CDOR  On May 16, 2022 Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited ("RBSL"), the administrator of CDOR, announced in a public statement that the calculation and publication of all tenors of CDOR will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday, June 28, 2024. On the date that all CDOR Available Tenors have either permanently or indefinitely ceased to be provided by RBSL (the "CDOR Cessation Date") , if the then-current CDOR Benchmark is CDOR, the CDOR Benchmark Replacement will replace such CDOR Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such CDOR Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the CDOR Benchmark Replacement is Daily Compounded CORRA, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.

(b) Replacing Future CDOR Benchmarks  Upon the occurrence of a CDOR Benchmark Transition Event, the CDOR Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current CDOR Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any CDOR Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Banking Day after the date notice of such CDOR Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such CDOR Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. At any time that the administrator of the then-current CDOR Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such CDOR Benchmark or such CDOR Benchmark has been announced by the administrator or the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such CDOR Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality that such CDOR Benchmark is intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Advances to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such CDOR Benchmark until the Borrower's receipt of notice from the Agent that a CDOR Benchmark Replacement has replaced such CDOR Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Prime Rate Advances. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, the component of Prime Rate based upon the CDOR Benchmark will not be used in any determination of Prime Rate.

(c) CDOR Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes  In connection with the implementation and administration of a CDOR Benchmark Replacement, the Agent will have the right to make CDOR Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such CDOR Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

(d) Notices: Standards for Decisions and Determinations  The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) the implementation of any CDOR Benchmark Replacement, (ii) any occurrence of a Term CORRA Transition Event, (iii) the effectiveness of any CDOR Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, and (iv) by delivering a BA Cessation Notice pursuant to clause (g) of this Section, its intention to terminate the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain B/As. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section.

(e) Unavailability of Tenor of CDOR Benchmark  At any time (including in connection with the implementation of a CDOR Benchmark Replacement), if the then-current CDOR Benchmark is a term rate (including Term CORRA or CDOR), then (i) the Agent may remove any tenor of such CDOR Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for CDOR Benchmark (including CDOR Benchmark Replacement) settings and (ii) the Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for CDOR Benchmark (including CDOR Benchmark Replacement) settings.

(f) Secondary Term CORRA Conversion  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this clause, if a Term CORRA Transition Event and its related Term CORRA Transition Date have occurred, then on and after such Term CORRA Transition Date (i) the CDOR Benchmark Replacement described in clause (i) of such definition will replace the then-current CDOR Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such CDOR Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (ii) each Advance outstanding on the Term CORRA Transition Date bearing interest based on the then-current CDOR Benchmark shall convert, on the last day of the then-current interest payment period, into an Advance bearing interest at the CDOR Benchmark Replacement described in clause (i) of such definition having a tenor approximately the same length as the interest payment period applicable to such Advance immediately prior to the conversion or such other CDOR Available Tenor as may be selected by the Borrower and agreed by the Agent; provided that, this clause (f) shall not be effective unless the Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term CORRA Notice, and so long as the Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Banking Day after the date of the Term CORRA Notice, written notice of objection to such conversion to Term CORRA from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders or the Borrower.

(g) B/As  The Agent shall have the option to, effective as of the date set out in the BA Cessation Notice, which shall be a date on or after the CDOR Cessation Date (the "BA Cessation Effective Date"), terminate the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain B/As, provided that the Agent shall give notice to the Borrower and the Lenders at least thirty (30) Banking Days prior to the BA Cessation Effective Date ("BA Cessation Notice"). If the BA Cessation Notice is provided, then as of the BA Cessation Effective Date, so long as the Agent has not received, by 5:00 p.m. (Toronto time) on the fifth (5th) Banking Day after the date of the BA Cessation Notice, written notice of objection to the termination of the obligation to make or maintain B/As from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders, (i) any drawdown request that requests the conversion of any Advance to, or rollover of any Loans as, a B/A shall be ineffective, and (ii) if any drawdown request requests a B/A such Advance shall be made as a CORRA loan of the same tenor. For the avoidance of doubt, any outstanding B/A shall remain in effect following the CDOR Cessation Date until such B/A's stated maturity.

The Guarantees shall be in form and substance satisfactory to the Lenders and must be unlimited except for limits imposed under Applicable Law or the Constating Documents of the respective Obligors. The Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to amend or remove any limitation on or prohibition of guarantees in the Constating Documents of the Borrower or the Material Subsidiaries, except that the Borrower need not request the consent of any Arm's Length third party other than by seeking a Permit that is normally available without material expense. The Borrower shall not be required to deliver or cause the delivery of a guarantee by a Material Subsidiary (i) if the delivery of such guarantee is prohibited by Applicable Law or would result in the breach of a Material Agreement (to which such Material Subsidiary is party with another Person at Arm's Length from the Hudbay Group) or the Borrower and the Agent (each acting reasonably) determine that the provision of the guarantee would have a material adverse tax consequence to the Hudbay Group or (ii) which is not a direct or indirect wholly-owned Subsidiary of the Borrower; provided that Section 3.1(a)(ii) above will not be applicable if any other Person who owns any Equity Interest in such Subsidiary acquired such Equity Interest for consideration not equal to the fair market value of such Equity Interest or acquired or retained such Equity Interest in order to invoke the provision of Section 3.1(a)(ii).

(b) If at any time the Borrower establishes or acquires a Material Subsidiary, or a Subsidiary that was not previously a Material Subsidiary becomes a Material Subsidiary or any Material Subsidiary that was previously unable to be an Obligor is able to become an Obligor, the Borrower shall, subject to Section 3.1(a), promptly cause that Subsidiary to become an Obligor, adopt this Agreement by delivering an agreement in the form of Schedule 3.1(b) so as to be bound by all of the terms applicable to Obligors as if it had executed this Agreement as an Obligor, and deliver a Guarantee as required by Section 3.1(a), the Guarantor Security Documents as required by Section 4.2 and all related certificates and opinions required by the Agent acting reasonably.

This Section shall not apply to the CMMC-MMC Joint Venture at any time.

3.2 Obligations Secured by the Security Documents and Guaranteed by the Guarantees

(ii) the present and future debts, liabilities and obligations of a Hudbay Group Member to the Agent, any Lender or Affiliate of a Lender (collectively, the "Other Secured Obligations") under or in connection with (i) cash management arrangements (including, without limitation, obligations arising in respect of credit card arrangements and electronic payments), (ii) Derivatives that are permitted under this Agreement (including without limitation in connection with any Deferred Revenue Financing Arrangement or Prepaid Metals Transactions (other than the Constancia SPA, the 777 PMPA and the Arizona Streaming Agreement)) and (iii) other transactions not made under this Agreement if it is agreed in writing after November 3, 2010 by the Obligors and the Agent acting on the instructions of the Required Lenders that such debts, liabilities and obligations shall be guaranteed; and

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Other Secured Obligations owing to a Person who has ceased to be a Lender or its Affiliates shall not include any such Other Secured Obligations arising solely under agreements or instruments entered into on or after the date such Person ceased to be a Lender for any reason. If the Obligations (other than those existing in respect of Other Secured Obligations) have been indefeasibly paid in full and the Commitments have been cancelled, the Agent, the Lenders and their Affiliates (and each former Lender or its Affiliates who benefit from the Liens referred to in this Section 3.2) shall release their interest in the Liens granted pursuant to the Security Documents and their rights under the Guarantees on receiving Cash Collateral to secure the Other Secured Obligations, in an amount satisfactory to the Lenders and their Affiliates (including each former Lender or its Affiliates to whom such Other Secured Obligations are owed) to whom Other Secured Obligations are owed.

Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement by reason of payment of the Credit, or for any other reason (but subject always to the last sentence of Section 3.2(a)(iii)), the Other Secured Obligations shall continue to be guaranteed by the Guarantees (and secured by the Security Documents). After the termination of this Agreement, decisions concerning the Guarantees (and any Liens granted under the Security Documents) shall be made by the holders of Other Secured Obligations referred to above as they may determine among themselves.

(d) The parties hereto agree that the provisions of this Section 3.2 shall survive: (i) the termination of this Agreement; and each of the other Loan Documents and the repayment of the Obligations and the Other Secured Obligations (until such time as all Obligations and Other Secured Obligations owing by the Obligors to the Lenders and their Affiliates have been fully, finally and indefeasibly paid, satisfied and discharged in full) and (ii) the assignment by a Lender (or, if applicable, its Affiliates) of all of its Commitment and Advances in accordance with Section 11.2 and its or, if applicable, its Affiliates rights and obligations under any other Loan Documents until, in respect of a Lender and its Affiliates, all Obligations and Other Secured Obligations owing by the Obligors to such Lender and its Affiliates are fully, finally and indefeasibly paid, satisfied and discharged in full.

If any Lender receives any amount of interest from HB Peru SAC on account of the Peruvian Note in excess of what is payable hereunder, such Lender shall return such excess amount to HB Peru SAC. On the Effective Date, HB Peru SAC shall provide the Agent for distribution to each Lender (i) a duly executed Peruvian Note for each Lender; and (ii) a duly executed note completion agreement, in substantially the form of Schedule E (each, a "Peruvian Note Completion Agreement") pursuant to which HB Peru SAC authorizes the applicable Lender to complete the Peruvian Note issued to its order in accordance with the rules set forth in such agreement.

Each Peruvian Note and Peruvian Note Completion Agreement provided to each Lender hereunder shall replace any and all original notes and their corresponding note completion agreements which were originally delivered to the lenders under the Original Credit Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to the Original Credit Agreement (it being agreed by the Lenders that, once the Peruvian Notes and Peruvian Note Completion Agreements have been delivered to the Lenders in accordance herewith, the Lenders shall not transfer their interest in the original note documents to any Person or enforce such original note documents and the Lenders shall return all original notes in their possession to the Borrower (or its Peruvian counsel) as promptly as practicable).

ARTICLE 6
ADVANCES

6.1 Lenders' Obligations Relating to L/Cs

(a) Notwithstanding that L/Cs are issued by the Issuing Banks, it is the intention of the Parties that the ultimate credit risk and exposure of any Lender be in accordance with its overall Applicable Percentage of the Credit. Each Lender shall immediately indemnify the Issuing Banks for that Lender's Applicable Percentage of any payment made by the Issuing Banks in respect of an L/C for which the Issuing Banks is not immediately reimbursed by the Borrower, and shall do all such things, including purchases of participations in Advances made by the Issuing Banks, as shall be required to ensure that result. Any such action on the part of the Lenders shall be binding on the Borrower.

(b) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations under this Section 6.1 in respect of L/Cs are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any L/C, the occurrence and continuance of a Default or the reduction or termination of its Commitment, and that any payment it is required to make pursuant to its obligations shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(c) If any Lender fails to take the actions required under this Section 6.1, the Agent may, without prejudice to the other rights of the Lenders, make such adjustments to the payments to the defaulting Lender under this Agreement as are necessary to compensate the other Lenders for the defaulting Lender's failure.

6.2 Evidence of Indebtedness

The Agent shall maintain records concerning the Obligations and each Lender shall maintain records concerning those Advances it has made and the Issuing Banks shall maintain records concerning those L/Cs issued by them. The records maintained by the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks shall constitute prima facie evidence of the Obligations and all related details, absent manifest error. The failure of the Agent, the Issuing Banks or any Lender to correctly record any detail relating to an Advance shall not, however, adversely affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any of the Obligations in accordance with this Agreement.

6.3 Calculation and Other Matters Regarding Interest and Fees

(a) All interest on Prime Rate Advances, Base Rate Advances and SOFR Advances shall accrue from day to day and shall be payable in arrears, calculated on the actual number of days elapsed from and including the date of Advance or the previous date on which interest was due in accordance with Section 2.6, as the case may be, to but excluding the date on which interest is due. If interest is not paid on the date it is due, the principal amount shall continue to bear interest at the rate that is applicable to the particular type of Advance from time to time in accordance with Section 2.6(a), both before and after maturity, default and judgment, and overdue interest shall bear interest at the same rate, compounded monthly, and be payable on demand. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, upon the expiry of the Interest Period applicable to any SOFR Advance, the principal amount and any overdue interest with respect to that SOFR Advance shall bear interest calculated at the rates applicable to Base Rate Advances.

(b) Interest and fees shall be calculated on the basis of a calendar year unless otherwise specified. Interest calculated with reference to SOFR shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and the B/A Discount Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days. Any rate that is calculated with reference to a period (the "deemed interest period") that is less than the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation is, for the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada), equivalent to a rate based on a calendar year calculated by multiplying that rate of interest by the actual number of days in the calendar year of calculation and dividing by the number of days in the deemed interest period. All calculations of interest and fees under the Loan Documents shall be made on the basis of the nominal rates described in this Agreement and not on the basis of effective yearly rates or on any other basis that gives effect to the principle of deemed reinvestment. The Parties acknowledge that there is a material difference between the stated nominal rates and effective yearly rates taking into account reinvestment, and that they are capable of making the calculations required to determine effective yearly rates.

(c) In this Section 6.3, any reference to a "calendar year" means the calendar year in which the period for which the calculation in question falls. If the period falls in two calendar years, one of which is a leap year, the calculation shall be done separately for the parts of the period that fall in each calendar year and the calculated amounts for each period shall be added.

(d) The B/A Fee for a B/A is calculated by multiplying the face amount of the B/A by the rate for calculation of the B/A Fee specified in Section 2.6, and multiplying the result by a fraction, the numerator of which is the term of the B/A and the denominator of which is 365.

(e) The L/C Fee for an L/C is calculated by multiplying the face amount of the L/C by the rate for calculation of the L/C Fee specified in Section 2.6, and multiplying the result by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed from and including the issuance or renewal of the L/C or the previous date on which the L/C Fee was due, as the case may be, to but excluding the date on which the L/C Fee is due or the L/C is drawn or cancelled, as the case may be, and the denominator of which is the number of days in the calendar year.

(f) The standby fee shall be calculated daily on the undrawn amount of the applicable Credit at the rate for calculation of the standby fee specified in Section 2.6, beginning on the Effective Date, and each payment shall cover the period from and including the Effective Date or the previous date on which the standby fee was due in accordance with Section 2.6, as the case may be, to but excluding the date on which the standby fee is due.

(g) If the Borrower fails to pay when due any amount payable under any Loan Document for which interest is not otherwise provided in this Agreement or another relevant Loan Document, the Borrower shall, on demand, pay interest on the overdue amount to the Agent from and including the due date up to but excluding the date of actual payment, both before and after demand, default or judgment, at the rate of interest determined from time to time in accordance with Section 2.6(a) that is applicable to Prime Rate Advances (if the amount is denominated in Canadian Dollars) or Base Rate Advances (if the amount is denominated in US Dollars), in each case compounded monthly.

(h) If the Borrower deposits cash as Cash Collateral pursuant to a requirement under this Agreement, the Agent or the Lender or Lenders holding the cash shall pay the Borrower interest on the cash while it continues to be held as Cash Collateral at the rate offered by the relevant Lenders from time to time for deposits in the relevant currency of comparable size and term.

(i) The Parties intend to comply with Applicable Law relating to usury. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in no event shall any Loan Document require the payment or permit the collection of interest or other amounts in an amount or at a rate in excess of the amount or rate that is permitted by Applicable Law or in an amount or at a rate that would result in the receipt by the Lenders or the Agent of interest at a criminal rate, as the terms "interest" and "criminal rate" are defined under the Criminal Code (Canada). Where more than one Applicable Law applies to any Obligor, that Obligor shall not be obliged to make payment in an amount or at a rate higher than the lowest permitted amount or rate. If from any circumstance whatever, fulfilment of any provision of any Loan Document would result in exceeding the highest rate or amount permitted by Applicable Law for the collection or charging of interest, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to reflect the highest permitted rate or amount. If from any circumstance the Agent or the Lenders shall ever receive anything of value as interest or deemed interest under any Loan Document that would result in exceeding the highest lawful rate or amount of interest permitted by Applicable Law, the amount that would be excessive interest shall be applied to the reduction of the principal amount of the Credit, and not to the payment of interest, or if the excessive interest exceeds the unpaid principal balance of the Credit, the amount exceeding the unpaid balance shall be refunded to the Borrower. For the purposes of the Criminal Code (Canada), the effective annual rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with generally accepted actuarial practices and principles and if there is any dispute, the determination of a Fellow of the Canadian Institute of Actuaries appointed by the Agent shall be conclusive.

(j) EACH OF THE OBLIGORS CONFIRMS THAT IT FULLY UNDERSTANDS AND IS ABLE TO CALCULATE THE RATE OF INTEREST APPLICABLE TO THE CREDIT BASED ON THE METHODOLOGY FOR CALCULATING PER ANNUM RATES PROVIDED FOR IN SECTION 6.3 OF THIS AGREEMENT. The Agent agrees that if requested in writing by the Borrower it shall calculate the nominal and effective per annum rate of interest on any Advance outstanding at any time and provide such information to the Borrower promptly following such request; provided that any error in any such calculation, or any failure to provide such information on request, shall not relieve the Borrower or any other Obligor of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor result in any liability to the Agent or any Lender. EACH OBLIGOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR ASSERT, WHETHER BY WAY OF DEFENCE OR OTHERWISE, IN ANY PROCEEDING RELATING TO THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THAT THE INTEREST PAYABLE UNDER THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND THE CALCULATION THEREOF HAS NOT BEEN ADEQUATELY DISCLOSED TO THE OBLIGORS, WHETHER PURSUANT TO SECTION 4 OF THE INTEREST ACT (CANADA) OR ANY OTHER APPLICABLE LAW OR LEGAL PRINCIPLE.

6.4 Conversions, Rollovers, Renewals, Repayments and Reductions

(a) Subject to the other terms of this Agreement, the Borrower may from time to time:

(i) convert all or any part of the outstanding amount of any SOFR Advance into a Base Rate Advance in the same principal amount, or vice versa;

(ii) convert all or any part of the outstanding amount of any Advance by way of B/As into a Prime Rate Advance in the same principal amount, or vice versa;

(iii) rollover all or any part of the outstanding amount of any SOFR Advance at the end of the Interest Period as a new SOFR Advance or rollover all or any part of the outstanding amount of any Advance by way of B/As a new Advance by way of B/As;

(iv) renew an L/C at its maturity date by extending the maturity date; and (v) in circumstances not mentioned in items (i) to (iv) immediately above, concurrently repay one Advance and obtain a different type of Advance.

(b) Subject to giving notice required by Section 6.5, the Borrower may from time to time repay Advances outstanding under the Credit without penalty, except that:

(i) SOFR Advances may not be paid or converted before the end of the applicable Interest Periods unless the Borrower indemnifies the relevant Lenders for any loss or expense that the Lenders incur as a result, including any breakage costs; and

(ii) No B/A may be paid or converted before its maturity date. The Borrower may provide Cash Collateral to the Agent in an amount equal to the face amount of any or all outstanding B/As if the Borrower concurrently repays all corresponding B/A Equivalent Loans and Cash Collateral is provided pro rata to the Lenders that have accepted B/As.

(c) The Borrower may from time to time, by giving not less than five Banking Days' notice to the Agent and paying all accrued and unpaid standby fees on the amount to be cancelled or reduced to the effective date of cancellation or reduction, irrevocably notify the Agent of the cancellation of the Credit or of the permanent reduction of the committed amount of the Credit by an amount that must be a minimum of US$10,000,000 and a whole multiple of US$1,000,000. Any reduction shall be applied pro rata to the respective Commitments of the Lenders under the Credit. The Borrower shall have no right to any reinstatement of any previously committed amount of the Credit after any cancellation or reduction.

6.5 Notice of Advances and Payments

(a) The Borrower shall give the Agent irrevocable written notice, in the form attached as Schedule 6.5(a), of any request for any Advance to them. The Borrower shall also give the Agent irrevocable written notice in the same form of any payment by it of any Advance (whether resulting from repayment, prepayment, rollover or conversion).

(b) Notice for Prime Rate Advances or Base Rate Advances shall be given not later than one Banking Day before the Advance Date.  Notices for B/As or SOFR Advances shall be given not later than the third Banking Day before the Advance Date or date of payment. Notice for an Advance by way of L/C shall be given not later than the third Banking Day before the Advance Date or at such earlier time as the relevant Issuing Bank may reasonably require so that it has sufficient time to review the proposed form of L/C. In the case of the notice for an L/C, such notice shall, inter alia, stipulate which Issuing Bank shall be the issuing bank.

(c) Notices shall be given not later than 10:00 a.m. on the date for notice. Payments (except those being made solely from the proceeds of rollovers and conversions) must be made before 11:00 a.m. on the date for payment. If a notice or payment is not given or made by those times, it shall be deemed to have been given or made on the next Banking Day, unless all Lenders affected by the late notice or payment agree, in their sole discretion, to accept a notice or payment at a later time as being effective on the date it is given or made.

6.6 Size and Term of Advances

(a) Each Prime Rate Advance or Base Rate Advance shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of C$5,000,000 or US$5,000,000, respectively and in a whole multiple of C$1,000,000 and US$1,000,000, respectively.

(b) Each Advance of B/As or B/A Equivalent Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of C$5,000,000 and in a whole multiple of C$1,000,000. In its notice requesting an Advance of B/As or B/A Equivalent Loan, the Borrower requesting such Advance shall select a term of one, two or three months (subject to availability) to apply to such Advance.

(c) Each SOFR Advance shall be in minimum amount of US$5,000,000 and a whole multiple of US$1,000,000. In its notice requesting a SOFR Advance, the Borrower requesting such Advance shall select an Available Tenor of one, three or six months (subject to availability) to apply to such particular SOFR Advance.

(d) Terms of B/As and Available Tenors of lengths other than those specified in Sections 6.6(b) and 6.6(c) shall also be available at the discretion of the Lenders from time to time and the Agent may, in circumstances of market disruption or illiquidity, restrict the term or maturity dates of B/As and/or SOFR Advances. There shall not at any time be B/As and/or SOFR Advances outstanding with more than 12 different maturity dates. No B/A may mature and no Interest Period may end on a date that is not a Banking Day, after the Maturity Date, or after a date on which the Credit is required to be reduced if that would adversely affect the Borrower's ability to make the reduction.

(e) Each L/C issued under this Agreement shall have a term that is not more than one year after its issuance date or renewal date (which may extend beyond the then- current Maturity Date), but may provide for automatic extension of its term for successive periods of up to one year each as long as the Issuing Banks have the right to avoid automatic extension by giving notice to the beneficiary of the L/C before the extension becomes effective. An L/C may otherwise be renewed by the Borrower on whose behalf it was issued subject to complying with the terms of this Agreement applicable to an Advance by way of L/C. On the Maturity Date or the cancellation of the Credit, the Borrower shall arrange for all outstanding L/Cs to be returned to the relevant Issuing Bank for cancellation or, with the consent of the relevant Issuing Bank, provide Cash Collateral to the relevant Issuing Bank in an amount sufficient (in the opinion of such Issuing Bank) to fully secure all outstanding L/Cs and all L/C Fees for the remainder of their respective terms, in which case the Cash Collateral shall be held by the relevant Issuing Bank in place of the Security.

6.7 Payment of B/As, SOFR Advances and L/Cs

(a) Subject to Section 9.2 and Section 9.9, the Borrower shall provide for the following by giving notice under Section 6.5 requesting a rollover or conversion if the Borrower is otherwise entitled to an Advance, or by delivery of payment:

(i) to the Agent at the Branch of Account of the full face amount of each B/A for value on the date of its maturity; (ii) to the Agent at the Branch of Account of the amount of each SOFR Advance for value on the last day of the applicable Interest Period; and

(iii) to the relevant Issuing Bank, as directed by such Issuing Bank, of each amount paid to the beneficiary of the L/C for value on the date on which such Issuing Bank makes a payment.

(b) If the Borrower fails to provide for payment in accordance with Section 6.7(a), the Agent shall deem a Prime Rate Advance to have been made in the case of failure to provide for a B/A or Canadian Dollar L/C or a Base Rate Advance to have been made in the case of failure to provide for a SOFR Advance or US Dollar L/C. The Agent shall immediately give notice of a deemed Advance to the Borrower and the Lenders and, in the case of a deemed Advance relating to an L/C, the Lenders shall remit their respective shares of the Advance to the Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Banks.

6.8 Co-ordination Prime Rate, Base Rate, B/A and SOFR Advances

(a) The Agent shall advise each Lender of its receipt of a notice pursuant to Section 6.5 requesting a Prime Rate, Base Rate or SOFR Advance or Advance of B/As on the day that notice is received from the Borrower and shall, as soon as possible, advise each Lender of that Lender's share of the Advance. Each Lender's share shall be based on its Applicable Percentage, but if the Agent determines that a Lender's Applicable Percentage would result in its share of an Advance not being a whole multiple of $1,000 or US$1,000, as the case may be, the Agent may increase or reduce the amount to be advanced by that Lender in the Agent's sole discretion to the extent necessary to make the amount a whole multiple.

(b) The Interest Period applicable to a SOFR Advance and the maturity date for an Advance of B/As shall be identical for each Lender.

(c) Each Lender shall deliver its share of the Advance to the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Advance Date, for value on that date. Each Lender's share of an Advance by way of B/As shall be delivered net of the applicable B/A Fee. Unless the Agent otherwise notifies a Lender, the amount to be delivered by such Lender shall be net of the amount required to repay other Advances it has made that are being repaid, rolled over or converted on that date.

(d) If the Agent determines that all the conditions precedent to an Advance specified in this Agreement have been met, it shall advance to the Borrower the amount delivered by each Lender by crediting the Designated Account before 2:00 p.m. on the Advance Date, but if the conditions precedent to the Advance are not met by 2:00 p.m. on the Advance Date, the Agent shall return the funds to the Lenders or invest them in an overnight investment as orally instructed by each Lender until the Advance is made.

(e) Any difference between the actual proceeds of a newly issued B/A and the amount required to pay a maturing B/A that is being rolled over or the amount required to pay a Prime Rate Advance that is being converted to B/As, any difference between the actual proceeds of an Advance and the amount required to repay any Advance that is concurrently being repaid and any difference between the actual proceeds of an Advance and the amount required to fulfill any specific use of the proceeds that the Borrower has directed the Agent to make, shall be paid by the Borrower to the Agent from its own resources by 1:00 p.m. on the Advance Date.

6.9 Execution of B/As

(a) To facilitate the acceptance of B/As under this Agreement, the Borrower appoints each Lender as its attorney to sign and endorse on its behalf, as and when considered necessary by the Lender, an appropriate number of orders in the form prescribed by that Lender.

(b) Each Lender may, at its option, execute any order in handwriting or by the facsimile or mechanical signature of any of its authorized officers, and the Lenders are authorized to accept or pay, as the case may be, any order of the Borrower that purports to bear such a signature notwithstanding that the signatory has ceased to be an authorized officer of the Lender. Any such order or B/A shall be as valid as if the individual were an authorized officer at the date of issue of the order or B/A.

(c) Any order or B/A signed by a Lender as attorney for the Borrower, whether signed in handwriting or by the facsimile or by facsimile or mechanical signature may be dealt with by the Agent or any Lender to all intents and purposes and shall bind the Borrower as if duly signed and issued by the Borrower.

(d) The receipt by the Agent of a notice requesting an Advance by way of B/As shall be each Lender's sufficient authority to execute, and each Lender shall, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, execute orders in accordance with that request and the advice of the Agent given pursuant to Section 6.8. The executed orders shall be deemed to have been presented for acceptance.

6.10 Funding of B/As

(a) It shall be the responsibility of each Lender to arrange, in accordance with normal market practice, for the sale on each Advance Date of the B/As issued by the Borrower and to be accepted by that Lender, failing which the provisions of this Agreement relating to Non B/A Lenders shall apply.

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the amount to be transferred by a Lender to the Agent in connection with any B/A accepted by that Lender shall be determined by the B/A Discount Proceeds calculated with respect to the B/A rather than the actual proceeds of any sale of that B/A. Accordingly, in respect of any particular B/A accepted by it, a Lender (i) shall be entitled to retain for its own account the amount, if any, by which any actual proceeds of sale exceed the calculated B/A Discount Proceeds with respect to the B/A, and (ii) shall be required to pay out of its own funds the amount, if any, by which the actual proceeds of sale are less than the calculated B/A Discount Proceeds.

(c) Whenever the Borrower requests an Advance that includes B/As, each Lender that cannot or does not as a matter of policy accept B/As or for any other reason elects by notice to the Agent from time to time not to do so (a "Non B/A Lender") shall, in lieu of accepting its pro rata amount of B/As, make available to the Borrower on the Advance Date a loan (a "B/A Equivalent Loan") in Canadian Dollars and in an amount equal to the B/A Discount Proceeds of the B/As that the Non B/A Lender would otherwise have accepted, less the B/A Fee that would otherwise have been applicable. The B/A Equivalent Loan shall have a term equal to the term of the B/As that the Non B/A Lender would otherwise have accepted and the Borrower shall, at the end of that term, be obligated to pay the Non B/A Lender an amount equal to the aggregate face amount of the B/As that it would otherwise have accepted. All provisions of this Agreement applicable to B/As and Lenders that accept B/As shall apply mutatis mutandis to B/A Equivalent Loans and Non B/A Lenders and, without limiting the foregoing, Advances shall include B/A Equivalent Loans.

6.11 Other B/A Provisions

(a) The Borrower shall not claim from a Lender any days of grace for the payment at maturity of any B/A accepted by the Lender pursuant to this Agreement. The Borrower waives any defence to payment that might otherwise exist if for any reason a B/A is held at maturity by a Lender in its own right, and the doctrine of merger shall not apply to any B/A that is at any time held by a Lender in its own right.

(b) Any executed orders to be used as B/As shall be held by a Lender in safekeeping with the same degree of care as if they were the Lender's own Property, and shall be kept at the place at which executed orders are ordinarily held by the Lender.

(c) The obligations of the Borrower with respect to B/As under this Agreement shall be unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following circumstances:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any order accepted by a Lender as a B/A; or

(ii) the existence of any claim, set off, defence or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against the holder of a B/A, a Lender or any other Person or entity, whether in connection with this Agreement or otherwise.

(d) The Borrower shall not enter into any agreement or arrangement of any kind with any Person to whom B/As have been delivered by which the Borrower undertakes to replace the B/As on a continuing basis with other B/As, nor shall the Borrower directly or indirectly take, use or provide B/As as security for loans or advances from any other Person.

(e) If, by reason of circumstances affecting the money market generally, as determined by the Agent (which such determination shall be made acting reasonably and in good faith), there is no market for B/As, (i) the right of the Borrower to request a B/A or B/A Equivalent Loan shall be suspended until the circumstances causing a suspension no longer exist; and (ii) any notice of Advance, rollover or conversion which is outstanding shall be deemed to be a notice of Advance requesting a Prime Rate Advance unless it has been revoked by the Borrower before the specified Advance Date. The Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower of the suspension of the Borrower's right to request an Advance by way of B/A or B/A Equivalent Loan and of the termination of any such suspension.

6.12 Issuance and Use of L/Cs

(a) A request for an Advance by way of L/C shall be made by the Borrower in accordance with Section 6.5, except that a copy of the request shall be sent directly to the relevant Issuing Bank. The Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the receipt of a request for an L/C, but L/Cs shall only be issued by the Issuing Banks as fronting banks for all Lenders. A request shall include the details of the L/C to be issued. The Issuing Banks shall promptly notify the Borrower of any comment concerning the form of the L/C requested by the Borrower and shall, if the Borrower is otherwise entitled to an Advance, issue the L/C to the Borrower on the Advance Date or as soon afterwards as the Issuing Banks are satisfied with the form of L/C to be issued.

(b) The Borrower shall not directly or indirectly use or provide an L/C as security for loans or advances from any other Person.

6.13 Reimbursement Obligation - L/Cs 6.14 Failure of Lender to Fund

Notwithstanding Section 6.7 or any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower's obligation to reimburse the Issuing Banks for a payment to a beneficiary of an L/C shall be absolute and unconditional, but without prejudice to the Borrower's right, after reimbursing the Issuing Banks, to claim damages from the Issuing Banks for matters arising from the Issuing Banks' wilful misconduct or gross negligence. The Borrower's obligation shall not be reduced by any demand or other request for payment of an L/C (a "Demand") that is paid or acted on in good faith and in conformity with Applicable Laws or applicable commercial customs or practices being invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged, nor shall the Borrower's obligation be subject to any defence or be affected by any right of set-off, counter-claim or recoupment that the Borrower may have now or in the future against the beneficiary, the Issuing Banks or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, including the fact that the Issuing Banks paid a Demand or Demands (if applicable) aggregating up to the amount of the L/C notwithstanding any contrary instructions from the Borrower to the Issuing Banks or the occurrence of any event including the commencement of legal proceedings to prohibit payment by the Issuing Banks of a Demand. Any action, inaction or omission taken or suffered by the Issuing Banks under or in connection with an L/C or any Demand, if in good faith and in conformity with Applicable Laws or applicable customs or practices shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not place the Issuing Banks under any resulting liability to the Borrower. Without limiting the foregoing, the Issuing Banks may receive, accept or pay as complying with the terms of the L/C, any Demand that is otherwise in order that may be signed by, or issued to, any administrator, executor, trustee in bankruptcy, receiver or other Person or entity acting as the representative or in place of, the beneficiary. The Borrower shall not take any steps, issue any instructions to the Issuing Banks or any of its correspondents or institute any proceedings intended to derogate from the right or ability of the Issuing Banks or its correspondents to honour or pay any Demand.

(a) Unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender before the proposed date of any Advance that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender's share of such Advance, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement concerning funding by Lenders and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If a Lender has not in fact made its full share of the applicable Advance available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender shall pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation. If such Lender pays such amount to the Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Advance. If the Lender does not pay such amount forthwith, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon at the interest rate applicable to the Advance in question. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that has failed to make such payment to the Agent.

(b) Notwithstanding Section 6.14(a), if any Lender fails to make available to the Agent its Applicable Percentage of any Advance (that Lender being the "Non-Funding Lender"), the Agent shall forthwith give notice of that failure by the Non-Funding Lender to the Borrower and the other Lenders. The Agent shall then forthwith give notice to the other Lenders that any Lender may make available to the Agent all or any portion of the Non-Funding Lender's Applicable Percentage of that Advance (but in no way shall any other Lender or the Agent be obliged to do so) in the place of the Non-Funding Lender. If more than one Lender gives notice that it is prepared to make funds available in the place of a Non-Funding Lender in those circumstances and the aggregate of the funds which those Lenders (collectively, the "Contributing Lenders" and individually, the "Contributing Lender") are prepared to make available exceeds the amount of the Advance which the Defaulting Lender failed to make, then each Contributing Lender shall be deemed to have given notice that it is prepared to make available its Applicable Percentage of that Advance based on the Contributing Lenders' relative commitments to advance in those circumstances. If any Contributing Lender makes funds available in the place of a Non-Funding Lender in those circumstances, then the Non-Funding Lender shall pay to any Contributing Lender making the funds available in its place, forthwith on demand, any amount advanced on its behalf together with interest thereon at the rate applicable to that Advance from the date of advance to the date of payment, against payment by the Contributing Lender making the funds available of all interest received in respect of the Advance from the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make available to the Agent its Applicable Percentage of any Advance as required herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to make available to the Agent its Applicable Percentage of any Advance as required herein.

6.15 Payments by the Borrower

(a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be made to and received by the Agent and shall be distributed by the Agent to the Lenders as soon as possible upon receipt by the Agent. Except as required to make payments in respect of the Other Secured Obligations or as otherwise provided in this Agreement (including Section 6.16), the Agent shall distribute:

(i) repayments of principal in accordance with each Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Credit; or

(ii) all other payments received by the Agent including amounts received on the enforcement of Guarantees, in accordance with each Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Credit except that with respect to proceeds of enforcement, no Lender shall receive an amount in excess of the amounts owing to it in respect of the Obligations.

(b) If the Agent does not distribute a Lender's share of a payment made by the Borrower to that Lender for value on the day that payment is made or deemed to have been made to the Agent, the Agent shall pay to the Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the Interbank Reference Rate per annum multiplied by (ii) the Lender's share of the amount received by the Agent from the Borrower and not so distributed, multiplied by (iii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that have elapsed from and including the date of receipt of the payment by the Agent to but excluding the date on which the payment is made by the Agent to such Lender and the denominator of which is 365. The Agent shall be entitled to withhold any Tax applicable to any payment as required by Applicable Law.

6.16 Payments by Agent

(a) For greater certainty, the following provisions shall apply to any and all payments made by the Agent to the Lenders hereunder:

(i) the Agent shall be under no obligation to make any payment (whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) to any Lender until an amount in respect of that payment has been received by the Agent from the Borrower;

(ii) if the Agent receives less than the full amount of any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amount owing by the Borrower under this Agreement, the Agent shall have no obligation to remit to each Lender any amount other than such Lender's Applicable Percentage of that amount which is the amount actually received by the Agent;

(iii) if any Lender advances more or less than its Applicable Percentage of the Credit, that Lender's entitlement to that payment shall be increased or reduced, as the case may be, in proportion to the amount actually advanced by such Lender;

(iv) except as specified in any applicable Assignment and Assumption, if a Lender's Applicable Percentage of an Advance has been advanced, or a Lender's Commitment has been outstanding, for less than the full period to which any payment (other than a payment of principal) by the Borrower relates, that Lender's entitlement to that payment shall be reduced in proportion to the length of time such Lender's Applicable Percentage of the Credit or such Lender's Commitment, as the case may be, has actually been outstanding;

(v) the Agent acting reasonably and in good faith shall, after consultation with the Lenders in the case of any dispute, determine in all cases the amount of all payments to which each Lender is entitled and that determination shall, in the absence of manifest error, be binding and conclusive; and

(vi) on written request from any Lender, the Agent shall deliver to the Lenders a statement detailing any of the payments to the Lenders referred to herein.

(b) Unless the Agent has received written notice from the Borrower before the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of any Lender that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute the amount due to the Lenders. In that event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with prevailing banking industry practice on interbank compensation.

9.3 Payment of L/Cs and B/As

If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing then the Agent may (and, if so instructed by the Required Lenders shall), by written notice to the Borrower require the Borrower to pay to the Agent (i) on behalf of the Lenders, an amount equal to the face amount of outstanding B/As and (ii) on behalf of the Issuing Banks, an amount equal to the undrawn face amount of any Letters of Credit issued and outstanding under the Credit and such amount shall be held by the Agent on deposit in trust for the Lenders and/or the Issuing Banks (as applicable) until the maturity date of such B/A and/or Letter of Credit, as applicable.

9.4 Remedies

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Guarantees and the Security Documents shall become immediately enforceable and Agent may, in consultation with the Lenders (and if so instructed by the Required Lenders shall) take such action or proceedings on behalf of the Lenders and in compliance with Applicable Law as is or may be expedient to enforce the same, all without any additional notice, presentment, demand, protest or other formality, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Obligors.

9.6 Perform Obligations

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent may, in consultation with the Lenders (and if so instructed by the Required Lenders shall) perform any such covenants or agreements in any manner deemed fit by the Agent without thereby waiving any rights to enforce the Loan Documents. All expenses (including any legal costs) paid by the Agent and/or the Lenders in respect of the foregoing shall form part of the Obligations and shall be guaranteed by the Guarantees, and secured by the Security Documents.

9.7 Third Parties

No Person dealing with the Agent or any Lender or any other agent of the Lenders shall be concerned to inquire whether the Loan Documents have become enforceable, or whether the powers which the Agent or the Lenders or such other agent are purporting to exercise have become exercisable, or whether any Obligations remain outstanding, or as to the necessity or expediency of the stipulations and conditions subject to which any action shall be taken, or otherwise as to the propriety or regularity of any action that is proposed.

9.8 Remedies Cumulative

It is expressly understood and agreed that the rights and remedies of the Lenders and the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document or other instrument executed pursuant to this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any rights or remedies provided by law or by equity; and any single or partial exercise by the Lenders or the Agent of any right or remedy for a default or breach of any term, covenant, condition or agreement contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not be deemed to be a waiver of or to alter, affect or prejudice any other right or remedy or other rights or remedies to which the Lenders or the Agent may be lawfully entitled for such default or breach. Any waiver by the Lenders or the Agent of the strict observance, performance or compliance with any term, covenant, condition or other matter contained herein and any indulgence granted, either expressly or by course of conduct, by the Lenders or the Agent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which it was given and shall be deemed not to be a waiver of any rights and remedies of the Lenders or the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document as a result of any other default or breach hereunder or thereunder.

9.9 Suspension of Lenders' Obligations

Without prejudice to the rights which arise out of this Agreement or by law, the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default shall, while such Default or Event of Default shall be continuing, relieve the Lenders of all obligations to make any Advances hereunder (whether or not any notice in respect of any such Advance shall have been received by the Agent prior to the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default) or to accept or comply with any notice or to convert any Advance into a B/A or a SOFR Advance (except, provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, a conversion permitted by the Agent in its discretion in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.4) or to accept any notice in respect of a rollover of a SOFR Advance, B/A or a B/A Equivalent Loan or accept or purchase drafts or B/As in replacement of maturing B/As.

9.10 Set-Off or Compensation

If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each of the Agent and the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the obligations of the Borrower or any other Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Agent and/or such Lender, irrespective of whether or not the Agent and/or such Lender has made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of such Obligor may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch or office of the Agent and/or such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Debt. The rights of the Agent and/or each of the Lenders and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff, consolidation of accounts and bankers' lien) that the Agent and/or the Lenders or their respective Affiliates may have. The Agent and each Lender agrees to promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent (or in the case of the Agent, the Lenders) after any such setoff and application, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. If any Affiliate of the Agent or a Lender exercises any rights under this Section 9.10, it shall share the benefit received in accordance with Section 10.6 as if the benefit had been received by the Lender of which it is an Affiliate.

9.11 Application of Payments After an Event of Default

If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing all payments made by the Borrower hereunder or payments made pursuant to any of the provisions of any of the Guarantees, shall be applied in the following order:

For greater certainty, no Lender's Commitment or Applicable Percentage may be amended without the consent of that Lender. Provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Lenders required herein above to take such action, reflects the rights or duties of the Agent under any Loan Documents or in respect of any Advance.

(d) Notwithstanding Sections 10.7(b) and 10.7(c), the Agent may, without the consent of the Lenders, make amendments to the Loan Documents that are for the sole purpose of curing any immaterial or administrative ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, but shall immediately notify the Lenders of any such action.

(b) The Agent shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed by the proper individual or individuals, and shall be entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying as to legal matters upon opinions of independent legal advisors selected by it. The Agent may also assume that any representation made by the Borrower is true and that no Default has occurred unless the officers or employees of the Lender acting as Agent, active in their capacity as officers or employees responsible for the Borrower's account have actual knowledge to the contrary or have received notice to the contrary from any other Party.

(c) The Agent shall be entitled to receive a fee for acting as Agent as agreed between the Agent and the Borrower from time to time.

10.9 Acknowledgements, Representations and Covenants of Lenders

(a) Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Lender represents and warrants that it has the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement pursuant to its Constating Documents and any Applicable Law and has not violated its Constating Documents or any Applicable Law by so doing.

(c) Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Agent and hold it harmless (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), rateably according to its Applicable Percentage (and not jointly or jointly and severally) from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel, which may be incurred by or asserted against the Agent in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or the transactions therein contemplated. However, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses resulting from the Agent's gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Agent shall not be required to take or continue any action unless the Agent has received sufficient funds or arrangements satisfactory to it for indemnification to cover the cost of the proposed action.

(d) To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Sections 13.8(a) and 13.8(b) to be paid by it to the Agent (or any subagent or Related Party thereof), each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent (or any sub-agent or Related Party) such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Agent (or any such subagent) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section are subject to the other provisions of this Agreement concerning several liability of the Lenders.

(e) Each of the Lenders acknowledges and confirms that in the event that the Agent does not receive payment in accordance with this Agreement, it shall not be the obligation of the Agent to maintain the Credit in good standing nor shall any Lender have recourse to the Agent in respect of any amounts owing to such Lender under this Agreement.

(f) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to advance its Applicable Percentage of Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement is independent and in no way related to the obligation of any other Lender hereunder.

(g) Each Lender acknowledges receipt of a copy of this Agreement, the Guarantees (to the extent that the Guarantees have been delivered) and any Intercreditor Agreement existing as of the Effective Date and acknowledges that it is satisfied with the form and content of such documents.

10.10 Collective Action of the Lenders

Each of the Lenders hereby acknowledges that to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, the remedies provided under the Loan Documents to the Lenders are for the benefit of the Lenders collectively and acting together and not severally and further acknowledges that its rights hereunder and under the Guarantees, the Security Documents and any security are to be exercised not severally, but by the Agent in accordance with the Loan Documents. Accordingly, notwithstanding any of the provisions contained in any Loan Document, each of the Lenders hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not be entitled to take any action hereunder or thereunder, including any declaration of default hereunder or thereunder but that any such action shall be taken only by the Agent in accordance with the Loan Documents. Each of the Lenders hereby further covenants and agrees that upon any such written agreement being given, it shall co-operate fully with the Agent to the extent requested by the Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the absence of instructions from the Lenders and where in the sole opinion of the Agent, acting reasonably and in good faith, the exigencies of the situation warrant such action, the Agent may without notice to or consent of the Lenders take such action on behalf of the Lenders as it deems appropriate or desirable in the interest of the Lenders.

10.11 Successor Agent

(a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint a successor, which shall be a Lender having an office in Toronto, Ontario or an Affiliate of any such Lender with an office in Toronto. The consent of the Borrower referred to above shall not be required if a Default has occurred and is continuing. The Agent may also be removed at any time by the Required Lenders upon 30 days' notice to the Agent and the Borrower as long as the Required Lenders, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint and obtain the acceptance of a successor within such 30 days, which shall be a Lender having an office in Toronto or an Affiliate of any such Lender with an office in Toronto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Required Lenders shall not be obligated to consult with the Borrower if a Default has occurred and is continuing.

(b) If no such successor has been so appointed by the Required Lenders and has accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications specified in the immediately preceding paragraph, provided that if the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (a) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that the retiring Agent shall continue to hold the Guarantees and any security held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (b) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for in the preceding paragraph.

(c) Upon a successor's appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Agent, and the former Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided in the preceding paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the termination of the service of the former Agent, the provisions of this Article 10 and of Section 13.8 shall continue in effect for the benefit of the former Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the former Agent was acting as Agent.

10.12 No Other Duties, Etc.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Bookrunner, Arranger or holder of a similar title specified in this Agreement shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Agent or a Lender hereunder.

10.13 Defaulting Lenders

(a) The Issuing Banks shall not be obligated to issue L/Cs to the extent of any Defaulting Lender's or Impacted Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof, unless arrangements satisfactory to the Issuing Banks have been entered into with the Borrower or with the Defaulting Lender or Impacted Lender to eliminate the Issuing Banks' risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender or Impacted Lender (such as depositing Cash Collateral with the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Banks).

(b) While it is a Defaulting Lender or Impacted Lender, a Lender shall not be entitled to share in an L/C Fee in respect of any L/C, (i) the amount of which is reduced pursuant to Section 10.13(a), or (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has entered into arrangements with the Issuing Banks to eliminate the Issuing Banks' risk with respect to such Defaulting Lender or Impacted Lender. In the case of Section 10.13(b)(ii), no L/C Fee shall be payable on the portion of the L/C for which the Borrower has entered into those arrangements with the Issuing Banks.

10.14 Reference Lenders

(a) If more than one Lender is a bank named on Schedule I of the Bank Act (Canada), the Agent shall be a Reference Lender and the Borrower shall irrevocably designate a different Lender named on Schedule I to be a Reference Lender for the purpose of providing quotations to the Agent to be used in determining rates as required by this Agreement.

(b) If any Reference Lender ceases to be a Lender, the Person that originally designated that Reference Lender shall have the right to designate prior to such Reference Lender ceasing to be a Lender another Lender that is a named on Schedule I of the Bank Act (Canada), failing which the applicable rate shall be determined on the basis of the quotation provided by the notice from the remaining Reference Lender.

(c) If only one Lender is a bank named on Schedule I of the Bank Act (Canada), that Lender shall be deemed to be the Reference Lender and any applicable rate shall be determined on the basis of the quotation provided by that Lender.

10.15 Erroneous Payments

(a) If the Agent notifies a Lender or Issuing Bank, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or other Issuing Bank under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents (any such Lender, Issuing Bank or other recipient, a "Payment Recipient") that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under immediately succeeding clause (b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously or mistakenly transmitted or paid to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an "Erroneous Payment") and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Agent and shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two Banking Days thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Agent in same day funds at the greater of (x) in respect of an Erroneous Payment in US Dollars, the Federal Funds Effective Rate and, in respect of an Erroneous Payment in Canadian Dollars at a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the overnight rate at which Canadian Dollars may be borrowed by the Agent in the interbank market in an amount comparable to such Erroneous Payment (as determined by the Agent) and (y) a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules or prevailing market practice for interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section 10.15(a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting immediately preceding Section 10.15(a), each Lender or Issuing Bank, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Bank, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender or Issuing Bank, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part) in each case:

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Banking Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Agent pursuant to this Section 10.15(b).

(c) Each Lender or Issuing Bank hereby authorizes the Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or Issuing Bank under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Agent to such Lender or Issuing Bank from any source, against any amount due to the Agent under immediately preceding clause (a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Agent in accordance with immediately preceding Section 10.15(a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an "Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency"), upon the Agent's notice to such Lender or Issuing Bank at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Advances (but not its Commitments) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Advances (but not Commitments), the "Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment") at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an electronic communication platform as to which the Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (ii) the Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and (iv) the Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Advances subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Advances acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Advance (or portion thereof), and the Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Agent has sold an Advance (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the "Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights").

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Obligor, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Agent from (i) the Borrower or any other Obligor or (ii) the proceeds of realization from the enforcement of one or more of the Loan Documents against or in respect of one or more of the Obligors, in each case, for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including waiver of any defense based on "discharge for value", "good consideration" for the Erroneous Payment or change of position by such Payment Recipient, any defense that the intent of the Agent was that such Payment Recipient retain the Erroneous Payment in all events, or any doctrine or defense similar to any of the foregoing.

(g) Each party's obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, or any assignment or transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Affiliate thereof, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

(h) For purposes of this Section 10.15, each Lender:

(i) agrees it is executing and delivering this Agreement with respect to this Section 10.15 both on its own behalf and as agent for and on behalf of its Affiliates referred to in this Section 10.15 and any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates;

(ii) represents, warrants, covenants and agrees that its Affiliates referred to in this Section 10.15 and any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates are bound by the provisions of this Section 10.15; and

(iii) agrees that any matter or thing done or omitted to be done by such Lender, its Affiliates, or any Person receiving funds under or pursuant to any of the Loan Documents on behalf of such Lender or any of such Affiliates which are the subject of this Section 10.15 will be binding upon such Lender and each Lender does hereby indemnify and save the Agent and its Affiliates harmless from any and all losses, expenses, claims, demands or other liabilities of the Agent and its Affiliates resulting from the failure of such Lender, its Affiliates or such Persons to comply with their obligations under and in respect of this Section 10.15, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations in Section 10.15.

10.16 Provisions Operative Between Lenders and Agent Only

Except for the provisions of Sections 10.7(b), 10.7(e), 10.9(b), 10.9(f), 10.10, 10.11, 10.12, 10.13, 10.14, 10.15 and 10.16, the provisions of this Article relating to the rights and obligations of the Lenders and the Agent inter se shall be operative as between the Lenders and the Agent only, and the Obligors shall not have any rights or obligations under or be entitled to rely for any purpose on such provisions.

(i) except if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Commitment and the Advances at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, the aggregate amount of the Commitment being assigned (which for this purpose includes Advances outstanding thereunder) subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if "Trade Date" is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than US$10,000,000, unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents to a lower amount (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

(ii) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(iii) any assignment must be approved by each Issuing Bank (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender;

(iv) any assignment must be approved by the Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless:

(A) the proposed assignee is itself already a Lender, or

(B) the proposed assignee is a bank whose senior, unsecured, non -credit enhanced, long term debt is rated at least A3, A- or A low by at least two of Moody's, S&P and DBRS Limited, respectively;

(vi) no assignment shall be permitted unless immediately following such assignment:

(A) the aggregate Applicable Percentage of the assigning Lender together with the Applicable Percentage held by any Lender which is its Affiliate will be equal to the aggregate Applicable Percentage (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) of the assigning Lender together with the Applicable Percentage (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) held by any Lender which is its Affiliate under the HB Peru ARCA; and

(B) the aggregate Applicable Percentage of the applicable Eligible Assignee together with the Applicable Percentage held by any Lender which is its Affiliate will be equal to the aggregate Applicable Percentage (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) of the applicable Eligible Assignee together with the Applicable Percentage (as defined in the HB Peru ARCA) held by any Lender which is its Affiliate under the HB Peru ARCA; and (vii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of US$5,000 and the Eligible Assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver any administrative questionnaire required by the Agent; provided that no such fee shall be payable if the Eligible Assignee is an Affiliate of a Lender.

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.4.

The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

11.4 Participations

(a) Any Lender may at any time without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to any Eligible Assignee (each, a "Participant") in all or a portion of such Lender's rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Advances owing to it), provided that the percentage of the total Commitments and/or Advances purchased by a Participant from a Lender hereunder will be equal to the percentage of the total Commitments and/or Advances (as such terms are defined in the HB Peru ARCA) purchased by such Participant under the HB Peru ARCA from such Lender (or any of its Affiliates). However, (x) the Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (y) the Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of its obligations and (z) the Borrower, the Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Subject to the immediately following paragraph, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 13.9 and 13.10 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.2.

12.2 Vesting of Powers in Successor

Except in the case of an amalgamation or other transaction pursuant to which the Successor Corporation is liable for all of the obligations of the Borrower or the Guarantors, as the case may be, by operation of law, whenever the conditions of Section 12.1 above have been duly observed and performed, the Agent and each of the Lenders shall execute and deliver the supplemental agreement provided for in Section 12.1(e) and thereupon the Successor Corporation shall possess and from time to time may exercise each and every right and power of an Obligor, as applicable, under this Agreement and the Loan Documents in its own name or in the name of the Borrower or the Guarantors, as the case may be, or otherwise and any act or proceeding by any provision of this Agreement required to be done and performed with like force and effect by the like directors or officers of the Successor Corporation.

Each Obligor hereby confirms that each of the Security Documents which it has delivered to the Agent, the Peruvian Collateral Agent, the Management and Guarantee Trustee, the Conditional Credit Assignment Agent, the Share Trustee, the Peruvian Intercreditor Agent and the Lenders prior to the Effective Date:

(a) remains in full force and effect as general and continuing collateral security over all of the assets, property and undertaking of such Obligor, whether now or in the future owned or acquired, and the security interests, mortgages, charges, liens, assignments, transfers and pledges granted in favour of the Agent, the Peruvian Collateral Agent, the Management and Guarantee Trustee, the Conditional Credit Assignment Agent, the Share Trustee, the Peruvian Intercreditor Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Security Documents continue to secure all of the debts, liabilities and obligations of such Obligor to the Agent, the Peruvian Collateral Agent, the Management and Guarantee Trustee, the Conditional Credit Assignment Agent, the Share Trustee, the Peruvian Intercreditor Agent and the Lenders now or hereafter arising, to the extent provided therein; and

(b) is enforceable against it by the Agent in accordance with its terms.

13.2 Severability, Etc.

If, in any jurisdiction, any provision of this Agreement or its application to any Party or circumstance is restricted, prohibited or unenforceable, that provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such restriction, prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement, without affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction and, if applicable, without affecting its application to the other Parties or circumstances.

13.3 Amendment, Supplement or Waiver

No amendment, supplement or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, nor any consent to any departure by an Obligor therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless it is in writing, makes express reference to the provision affected thereby and is signed by the Agent for and on behalf of the Lenders or the Required Lenders, as the case may be, and then that waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. In addition, any amendment or supplement shall require the written consent of the other parties to the Loan Document in question. No waiver or act or omission of the Agent, the Lenders, or any of them, shall extend to or be taken in any manner whatsoever to affect any subsequent Default or breach by an Obligor of any provision of any Loan Document or the rights resulting therefrom.

13.4 Governing Law

(a) Each of the Loan Documents, except for those which expressly provide otherwise, shall be conclusively deemed to be a contract made under, and shall for all purposes be governed by and construed in accordance with, the laws of the Province of Ontario and the laws of Canada applicable in Ontario. Each Obligor irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its Property, to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of Ontario, and any appellate court from any of those courts, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Obligor or its Property in the courts of any jurisdiction. Each Obligor irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in court any of the Province of Ontario. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the defence of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

This appointment shall be irrevocable without the prior consent of the Required Lenders upon the appointment of a substitute agent acceptable to the Required Lenders acting reasonably and, until that time, service of process or of papers and notices relating to proceedings in any court in Ontario upon Hudbay shall be sufficient service on all Obligors.

13.5 Conflicts

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the applicable terms of this Agreement shall govern.

13.6 Judgment Currency

To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, if any judgment or order is rendered and expressed in a currency other than the currency (the "Agreement Currency") in which amounts are payable under the Credit (i) for the payment of any amount owing by the Borrower in respect of the Credit or this Agreement, or (ii) in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in (i) above, the Agent and the Lenders, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which the Agent and the Lenders are entitled pursuant to the judgment or order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the Borrower the amount of any shortfall in the Agreement Currency received by the Agent or the Lenders as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency and will refund promptly to the Borrower any excess of the Agreement Currency received by the Lender as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency if such shortfall or such excess arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Agreement Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purposes of such judgment or order and the rate of exchange at which the Agent or the Lenders are able, acting in a reasonable manner and in good faith in converting the currency received into the Agreement Currency, to purchase the Agreement Currency with the amount of the currency of the judgment or order actually received by the Lender. The term "rate of exchange" includes, without limitation, any premiums and costs of exchange payable in connection with the purchase of or conversion into the Agreement Currency. Any amount due from the Borrower under the provisions of this Section 13.6 shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of the Credit or this Agreement.

13.7 Liability of Lenders

The liability of the Lenders in respect of all matters relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is several and not joint or joint and several. Without limiting that statement, the obligations of the Lenders to make Advances is limited to their respective Applicable Percentages of any Advance that is requested, and, in the aggregate, to their respective Applicable Percentages of the total amounts of the Credit.

13.8 Expenses and Indemnity

(a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, its Affiliates and the Lenders, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel for the Agent, in connection with the syndication of the Credit, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby are consummated), (ii) without duplication, all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any L/C or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Advances made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Advances.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an "Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, Claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel or expert consultation for any Indemnitee, incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Restricted Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance or non-performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation or non-consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Advance or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honour a demand for payment under an L/C if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such L/C), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of any Hazardous Materials in, on, under or from any real property as defined in or regulated by any Applicable Law (including Environmental Law) or Governmental Authority from time to time on or from any Property owned or operated by any Hudbay Group Member, or any remedial, rehabilitation or other restoration action taken by the Agent or Lender with respect thereto or any actual or alleged breach of Applicable Law (including Environmental Law) with respect to environmental or natural resource matters or human health that is related in any way to any Restricted Party (including without limitation all Environmental Laws), or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by a Restricted Party and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto, provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, penalties, fines, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) result from a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Restricted Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee's obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if the Restricted Party has obtained a final and non-appealable judgment in its favour on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, nor shall it be available in respect of matters specifically addressed in Sections 13.8(a), 13.9 and 13.10.

(c) All amounts due under this Section 13.8 shall be payable promptly after demand therefor. A certificate of the Agent or a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts owing to the Agent, Lender or a sub-agent or Related Party, as the case may be, as specified in this Section, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

13.9 Taxes

(a) If any Obligor, the Agent, or any Lender is required by Applicable Law to deduct or pay any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) in respect of any payment by or on account of any obligation of an Obligor hereunder or under any other Loan Document, then (i) the deductions shall be assumed by the Obligor in accordance with Article 47 of the Peruvian Income Tax Law or, if this were not possible, the sum payable shall be increased by that Obligor when payable as necessary so that after making or allowing for all required deductions and payments (including deductions and payments applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Agent or Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or payments been required, (ii) the Obligor shall make any such deductions required to be made by it under Applicable Law and (iii) the Obligor shall timely pay the full amount required to be deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Agent or such Lender and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by an Obligor to a Governmental Authority, the Obligor shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

(e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of Canada, or any treaty to which Canada is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, at the request of the Borrower or the Agent, deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.

(f) If the Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which an Obligor has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section or that, because of the payment of such Taxes or Other Taxes, it has benefited from a reduction in Excluded Taxes otherwise payable by it, it shall pay to the Borrower or the Obligor, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund or reduction (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower or Obligor under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or reduction), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any net after-Tax interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). The Borrower and each Obligor, as applicable, upon the request of the Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower or Obligor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent or such Lender if the Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or reduction to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person, to arrange its affairs in any particular manner or to claim any available refund or reduction.

13.10 Increased Costs, Etc.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender;

(ii) subject any Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Advance made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof, except for Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 13.9 and the imposition, or any change in the rate, of any Excluded Tax payable by such Lender; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or any applicable interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Advances made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Advance (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Advance), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount), then upon request of such Lender the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender's holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender's capital or on the capital of such Lender's holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Advances made by such Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or its holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's policies and the policies of its holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in this Section, including reasonable detail of the basis of calculation of the amount or amounts, and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender's right to demand such compensation, except that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months before the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor, unless the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, in which case the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

13.11 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 13.10, or requires the Borrower to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 13.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable commercial efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Advances hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 13.9 or 13.10, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment unless the Borrower has repaid or replaced the Lender in accordance with Section 13.11(b).

(b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 13.10, if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 13.9, if any Lender's obligations are suspended pursuant to Section 13.15 or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Advances hereunder, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon 10 days' notice to such Lender and the Agent, either (i) repay all Obligations to the Lender and reduce the amount of the Credit by an amount equal to the Lender's Commitment, or (ii) require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.2), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(i) in the case of an assignment, the Borrower pays the Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.2(a)(vii);

(ii) the Lender receives payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any breakage costs and amounts required to be paid under this Agreement as a result of prepayment to a Lender) from any assignee and/or the Borrower;

(iii) in the case of any assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 13.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 13.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; and

(iv) any assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law.

(c) A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation or accept repayment if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation or repayment cease to apply.

13.12 FATCA

(a) If the Agent reasonably believes that its obligations under FATCA or any other applicable law or regulation requires it, each Lender shall supply to the Agent:

(i) a withholding certificate on Form W-8, Form W-9 or any other relevant form; or

(ii) any withholding statement or other document, authorization or waiver as the Agent may require to certify or establish the status of such Lender under FATCA or that other law or regulation;

unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so.

(b) The Agent shall provide any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a) above to the Borrower.

(c) If any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver provided to the Agent by a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a) above is or becomes materially inaccurate or incomplete, that Lender shall promptly update it and provide such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Agent unless it is unlawful for the Lender to do so (in which case the Lender shall promptly notify the Agent). The Agent shall provide any such updated withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorisation or waiver to the Borrower.

(d) The Agent may rely on any withholding certificate, withholding statement, document, authorization or waiver it receives from a Lender pursuant to paragraph (a) or (c) above without further verification. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken by it under or in connection with this Section 13.12.

13.13 Anti-Money Laundering Legislation

(a) The Obligors acknowledge that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime (Money Laundering) and Terrorist Financing Act (Canada) and other applicable anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and "know your client" Applicable Laws, whether within Canada or elsewhere (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, "AML Legislation"), the Lenders and the Agent may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Hudbay Group, their directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Hudbay Group, and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Obligors shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender or the Agent, or any prospective assignee or participant of a Lender or the Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(b) If the Agent has ascertained the identity of any Hudbay Group Member or any authorized signatories of a Hudbay Group Member for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then the Agent:

(i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a "written agreement" in such regard between each Lender and the Agent within the meaning of applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii) shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lenders agrees that the Agent has no obligation to ascertain the identity of any Hudbay Group Member or any authorized signatories of the Obligors on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from the Borrower or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

13.14 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected  Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

13.15 Illegality

If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make or maintain any Advance (or to maintain its obligation to make any Advance), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon any particular rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of such Lender with respect to the activity that is unlawful shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay or, if conversion would avoid the activity that is unlawful, convert any Advances, or take any necessary steps with respect to any L/C in order to avoid the activity that is unlawful. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

13.16 Notices

(a) Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted to be given by telephone (and except as provided in Section 13.16(c)), all notices and other communications provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be delivered by hand or overnight courier service, mailed by certified or registered mail or sent by telecopier to the addresses or telecopier numbers specified beside the respective signatures of the parties to this Agreement or on any Assignment and Assumption or, if to an Obligor other than the Borrower, in care of the Borrower.

The Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it in writing, but approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.

(d) Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an email address shall be deemed received upon the sender's receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the "return receipt requested" function, as available, return email or other written acknowledgement), except that if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Banking Day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its email address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

13.19 Counterparts and Facsimile

(a) This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Except as provided in Article 5, this Agreement and the amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement contemplated hereby shall become effective when it has been executed by the Agent and when the Agent has received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy or by sending a scanned copy by electronic mail shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

(b) The words "execution," "signed," "signature," and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Applicable Law, including Parts 2 and 3 of the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (Canada), the Electronic Commerce Act, 2000 (Ontario) and other similar federal or provincial laws based on the Uniform Electronic Commerce Act of the Uniform Law Conference of Canada or its Uniform Electronic Evidence Act, as the case may be.

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Restricted Parties shall not assert, and hereby waive, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for indirect, consequential, punitive, aggravated or exemplary damages (as opposed to direct damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby (or any breach thereof), the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Advance or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

PAGARÉ

En virtud del presente Pagaré (el "Pagaré"), emitido de conformidad con el artículo 10 de la Ley de Títulos Valores, Ley No. 27287 (la "Ley de Títulos Valores"), nosotros, HUDBAY PERU S.A.C. (el "Deudor"), sociedad inscrita en la Partida Electrónica No. 11769292 del Registro de Personas Jurídicas de la Oficina Registral de Lima, con domicilio para estos efectos en Av. Jorge Chávez 235, departamento 701, distrito de Miraflores, provincia y departamento de Lima, Perú, representada por [●], identificado con [●] N° [●], según poderes otorgados mediante [●] de fecha [●], reconocemos que debemos y nos obligamos a pagar en forma incondicional en la fecha de vencimiento indicada en este Pagaré, en Dólares de los Estados Unidos de América (tal como lo permite el artículo 50.1 de la Ley de Títulos Valores) a la orden y disposición de [insert Lender name] (el "Acreedor") o, en caso de su negociación o transferencia, a la orden y disposición de la persona natural o jurídica tenedora del presente título valor, contra la presentación del original de este Pagaré debidamente completado, mediante depósito o transferencia de fondos en la cuenta [insert account information], o en el lugar que este Pagaré sea presentado a cobro en su vencimiento, la suma de US$ ___________________________ (___________________________________________________________________________ Dólares de los Estados Unidos de América), más los intereses compensatorios y moratorios que se devenguen hasta su pago total, y cualquier otra suma adeudada conforme al presente Pagaré, el "Acuerdo de Llenado de Pagaré" de fecha [●] de [●] de 2021 que hemos entregado al, y suscrito con el, Acreedor (el "Acuerdo de Llenado de Pagaré"), el Contrato de Crédito (tal como se define en este Pagaré) y la Fianza (tal como se define en este Pagaré).

La suma antes indicada es adeudada por nuestra parte a favor del Acreedor por obligaciones contraídas en virtud de los documentos denominados (a) Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Facility suscrito entre el Deudor, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, actuando como Agente Administrativo (o cualquier sucesor o cesionario según lo establecido en el Contrato de Crédito, el "Agente Administrativo"), y los demás prestamistas y entidades referidos en dicho contrato de fecha [●] de [●] de 2021, conforme éste haya sido o sea modificado de tiempo en tiempo (el "Contrato de Crédito"); y, (b) Guarantee, suscrito por el Deudor con fecha [●] de [●] de 2021 (la "Fianza"). El Pagaré será llenado de acuerdo con el Acuerdo de Llenado de Pagaré.

El Deudor se obliga a pagar en relación con la suma mencionada en el primer párrafo del presente Pagaré, a partir del día siguiente de la fecha de vencimiento de este Pagaré (e incluyendo dicha fecha o de la fecha en que hubiere incumplido con el pago de los intereses de este Pagaré), y hasta la fecha de su pago total (pero excluyendo dicha fecha), un interés compensatorio ascendente a 23% anual y un interés moratorio ascendente a 2% anual, en ambos casos calculado sobre la base de un año de 360 días calendario.

Para efectos del presente Pagaré, resultarán aplicables las siguientes definiciones:

"Dólares de los Estados Unidos de América" o "Dólares" significa la moneda de curso legal en los Estados Unidos de América.

Cada pago que realice el Deudor al tenedor de este Pagaré de conformidad con el mismo será efectuado libre de cualquier deducción o retención de cualquier "Indemnified Taxes" u "Other Taxes" (tal como dichos términos se definen en el Contrato de Crédito), excepto según sea requerido por la legislación aplicable. Si el Deudor es requerido por la legislación aplicable a deducir o retener cualquier Indemnified Tax u Other Tax de cualquier suma a ser pagada bajo el presente Pagaré, entonces (i) el Deudor asumirá el importe del mismo, conforme a lo dispuesto en el artículo 47 de la Ley del Impuesto a la Renta, o (ii) la suma a ser pagada bajo el presente Pagaré será incrementada en la cantidad que sea necesaria para que, una vez hechas las deducciones o retenciones correspondientes (incluyendo las deducciones aplicables a sumas adicionales a ser pagadas bajo este párrafo), el tenedor de este Pagaré reciba un monto equivalente a la suma que hubiera recibido si dichas deducciones o retenciones no hubieran sido efectuadas.

El Deudor se obliga incondicionalmente a pagar al tenedor de este Pagaré los gastos de cobranza, gastos notariales, así como cualquier otro gasto, comisiones, costas y costos judiciales, extrajudiciales, tributos y cualquier otro concepto a que hubiere lugar (incluyendo honorarios de abogados y asesores) y cualquier otra suma debida al tenedor de este Pagaré en relación con el Pagaré, obligándose el Deudor a pagar sobre dichos gastos el mismo interés moratorio pactado en este Pagaré, desde el día siguiente de su vencimiento hasta la total cancelación del monto liquidado por el Acreedor.

En aplicación de lo dispuesto por el artículo 49° de la Ley Títulos Valores, el Deudor presta desde ahora, y por todo el tiempo que se encuentren vigentes o impagas las obligaciones representadas por el presente Pagaré, su consentimiento expreso e irrevocable para que el tenedor del presente Pagaré pueda renovar y prorrogar el mismo a su vencimiento o después de él, no requiriendo que tal prórroga o renovación sea notificada ni aceptada por el Deudor, bastando para ello que dicho tenedor efectúe la anotación o las anotaciones correspondientes en este documento.

Las obligaciones bajo el presente Pagaré no se extinguirán aún en caso que el mismo se perjudique por causas atribuibles al tenedor del Pagaré, constituyendo éste un pacto en contrario a lo dispuesto en el artículo 1233° del Código Civil.

El monto del presente Pagaré y el interés compensatorio y moratorio correspondiente, así como cualquier otra suma adeudada en virtud de este Pagaré, deberán ser pagados por el Deudor en la misma moneda extranjera en que se establece el importe que representa el Pagaré.

En el supuesto de que en el futuro se dictase cualquier norma o disposición legal que estableciese que no pueden pagarse obligaciones pactadas en moneda extranjera en moneda libremente convertible (Dólares de los Estados Unidos de América), el Deudor no quedará eximido por ninguna circunstancia del pago de su obligación contenida en este Pagaré, para lo cual queda además obligado a seguir los procedimientos legalmente existentes para cancelar en Dólares de los Estados Unidos de América la obligación de pago que le corresponde en virtud del Pagaré evitando que el tenedor del Pagaré sufra pérdidas cambiarias en la cancelación por el Deudor de dicha obligación de pago.

Por otro lado, y solo para el caso en que eventualmente resulte necesario efectuar la conversión a moneda distinta para los fines de obtener una resolución de una corte, el tipo de cambio aplicable será aquel publicado por la Superintendencia de Banca, Seguros y AFP en el Diario Oficial El Peruano al cierre del día hábil inmediato anterior a la resolución de la corte bajo el titulo "compra y venta de moneda extranjera - tipo de cambio promedio ponderado" (o similar, de ser el caso), siendo que, en caso el tipo de cambio no pudiera ser calculado de acuerdo a lo anterior, el Agente Administrativo determinará el tipo de cambio por referencia a las cotizaciones recibidas de por lo menos tres bancos en Perú elegidos por el Agente Administrativo, cuyas cotizaciones deberán estar en vigencia en la fecha de cálculo, y el tipo de cambio a ser utilizado será el promedio de las cotizaciones recibidas. Si hubiere alguna modificación en el tipo de cambio entre la fecha descrita en la oración anterior y la fecha de pago del monto debido, el Deudor pagará los montos adicionales que sean necesarios para completar el monto debido para poder adquirir la cantidad de Dólares que se hubiera adquirido en la fecha señalada en la oración anterior.

De conformidad con el artículo 52° de la Ley de Título Valores, este Pagaré es "sin protesto" y, en ese sentido, el tenedor de este Pagaré no requerirá protestarlo a efectos de su ejecución. Sin perjuicio de ello, el tenedor de este Pagaré estará facultado a protestarlo en caso de no pago, si éste considera dicho protesto conveniente, en cuyo caso las gastos de dicho procedimiento notarial o formalidad sustituta se encontrarán a cargo del Deudor. El protesto deberá ser realizado por medio de una notificación dirigida a la dirección del domicilio del Deudor indicado en el presente Pagaré.

El presente Pagaré está sujeto, será interpretado y se regirá por las disposiciones de la Ley de Títulos Valores y demás normas y leyes de la República del Perú.

El Deudor se somete expresamente a la competencia de los jueces y tribunales del distrito judicial de Lima-Cercado para todos los efectos, actos y consecuencias que se deriven de la emisión, interpretación, pago, ejecución y cobranza de la cantidad representada en el presente Pagaré, así como de los intereses, comisiones y gastos que se originen con relación al mismo, renunciando al fuero de su domicilio.

El Deudor señala como su domicilio para cualquier notificación, comunicación o requerimiento que deba efectuarse en relación al presente Pagaré, sea de carácter judicial o extrajudicial, el indicado al inicio del presente Pagaré, lugar donde se le reputará siempre presente para todos los efectos del presente Pagaré hasta el momento en que el Deudor cumpla con pagar la integridad de la suma representada por el mismo.

El Deudor expresamente autoriza al Acreedor a completar el presente Pagaré de conformidad con el Acuerdo de Llenado de Pagaré, conforme lo permite el artículo 10° de la Ley de Títulos Valores del Perú, Ley No. 27287. En este acto, el Deudor declara haber recibido copia de este Pagaré así como del Acuerdo de Llenado de Pagaré, a su completa y entera satisfacción.

Se deja expresa constancia que el presente Pagaré consta de [3] páginas que constituyen en conjunto un solo documento.

Las partes acuerdan que el Pagaré incompleto (en adelante, el "Pagaré"), emitido en esta misma fecha por HUDBAY PERU S.A.C. (en adelante, el "Deudor"), con R.U.C. No. 20511165181, sociedad inscrita en la Partida Electrónica No. 11769292 del Registro de Personas Jurídicas de la Oficina Registral de Lima, a favor de [insert Lender name] (en adelante, el "Acreedor"), será completado por el Acreedor o, en caso de negociación o transferencia del Pagaré, por la persona natural o jurídica tenedora del Pagaré, de conformidad con las instrucciones de llenado que se detallan en el presente acuerdo. Los términos en mayúsculas inicial contenidos en este documento que no estén expresamente definidos en este documento tendrán el respectivo significado previsto en el documento denominado Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Facility suscrito entre el Deudor, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, actuando como Agente Administrativo (o cualquier sucesor o cesionario según lo establecido en el Contrato de Crédito, el "Agente Administrativo"), y los demás prestamistas y entidades referidos en dicho contrato de fecha [●] de [●] de 2021, conforme éste haya sido o sea modificado de tiempo en tiempo (el "Contrato de Crédito") o, de no estar dicho término definido en el Contrato de Crédito, en el documento denominado Guarantee, suscrito por el Deudor con fecha [●] de [●] de 2021 (la "Fianza", y en conjunto con el Contrato de Crédito, los "Documentos de la Operación").

En ese sentido, por medio del presente acuerdo, el Deudor autoriza irrevocablemente al Acreedor o, en caso de negociación o transferencia del Pagaré, a la persona natural o jurídica tenedora del Pagaré, de conformidad con el artículo 10° de la Ley de Títulos Valores aprobada por Ley Nº 27287, a completar el Pagaré indicando su monto y la fecha de vencimiento, de acuerdo con lo siguiente:

i. La fecha de vencimiento del Pagaré (la "Fecha de Vencimiento") será la fecha en que el Pagaré sea completado por el Acreedor.

ii. El monto del Pagaré será equivalente a la suma de todas y cada una de las obligaciones pendientes de pago por el Deudor a favor del Acreedor en la Fecha de Vencimiento según los términos y condiciones establecidos en los Documentos de la Operación (el "Monto").

Para determinar la cuantía del Monto, el Agente Administrativo efectuará a la Fecha de Vencimiento una liquidación de todas las obligaciones pendientes de pago por el Deudor a favor del Acreedor bajo los Documentos de la Operación para lo cual el Agente Administrativo tomará en cuenta, entre otros conceptos, sin limitación alguna: (i) el capital del préstamo que corresponda asumir al Deudor, (ii) los intereses compensatorios y, de corresponder, los intereses moratorios que se hubieren devengado y que corresponda asumir al Deudor, (iii) los honorarios y gastos legales de cargo del Deudor a favor del Acreedor, (iv) costos y gastos en relación con la defensa de sus derechos bajo el Pagaré o con la ejecución del Pagaré, así como los pagos por indemnizaciones y penalidades que pudieran corresponder de conformidad con los términos y condiciones establecidos en los Documentos de la Operación, que sean de cargo del Deudor a favor del Acreedor, y (v) cualquier otro gasto, costo, comisión y cualquier otra obligación de pago de cargo del Deudor a favor del Acreedor que hubiera surgido de acuerdo con los términos y condiciones de los Documentos de la Operación y el Pagaré.

Una vez que el Agente Administrativo efectúe la liquidación a que se refiere el párrafo anterior y determine a cuánto asciende el Monto en la Fecha de Vencimiento, el Acreedor procederá a colocar dicha cantidad en el espacio en blanco del Pagaré referido al Monto.

iii. A efectos de completar el Pagaré, el Acreedor no requerirá aprobación o consentimiento del Deudor, y ninguna decisión o sentencia emitida por un juez, tribunal arbitral, autoridad administrativa o cualquier otra autoridad, ya sea de manera previa, simultánea o posterior, será necesaria para dicho fin.

iv. El Deudor acepta y da por válidas todas las renovaciones y/o prórrogas totales o parciales que se anoten en el Pagaré, aún cuando no estén suscritas por el Deudor.

v. El Deudor reconoce expresamente los mecanismos de protección que la ley otorga para la emisión y aceptación de un pagaré incompleto.

vi. El Deudor deja expresa constancia que ha recibido copia del Pagaré incompleto suscrito por el Deudor en el momento en que el Acreedor recibió el Pagaré incompleto.

Este documento se rige por las leyes de la República del Perú y las partes se someten a la jurisdicción y competencia de los jueces y tribunales del Distrito Judicial de Lima-Cercado.
