If, for whatever reason, despite being authorized under the LLC agreement, the dividends are not declared on any<br />
dividend payment date to the full extent authorized, then, automatically under the terms of the guarantee, such dividends will<br />
be deemed declared on such dividend payment date to the full extent authorized under the terms of the LLC agreement.<br />
All the references to dividends in this subsection shall be deemed to include additional amounts, if any. Except as<br />
described in this subsection, holders of the LLC preferred securities will have no right to participate in the profits of the LLC.<br />
Payment of Additional Amounts<br />
All payments in respect of the LLC preferred securities by the LLC will be made without withholding or deduction for or<br />
on account of any relevant tax, unless the withholding or deduction of such relevant tax is required by law. In that event, the<br />
LLC will pay, as further dividends, such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received by<br />
the holders of the LLC preferred securities after such withholding or deduction will equal the amount which would have been<br />
received in respect of the LLC preferred securities in the absence of such withholding or deduction, except that no such<br />
additional amounts will be payable to a holder of LLC preferred securities (or to a third party on the holder's behalf) with<br />
respect to any LLC preferred securities (i) to the extent that such relevant tax is imposed or levied by virtue of such Holder<br />
(or the beneficial owner of such LLC preferred securities) or a holder of trust securities having some connection with a<br />
relevant jurisdiction, other than being a holder (or beneficial owner) of such LLC preferred securities or trust securities, (ii) to<br />
the extent that such relevant tax is imposed or levied by virtue of such holder (or beneficial owner) or a holder of trust<br />
securities not having made a declaration of non- residence in, or other lack of connection with, the relevant jurisdiction or<br />
any similar claim for exemption, if <strong>Holding</strong> or its agent has provided the beneficial owner of such LLC preferred securities or<br />
trust securities or its nominee with at least 60 days' prior written notice of an opportunity to make such a declaration or<br />
claim, or (iii) where such withholding or deduction is imposed on a payment to an individual and is required to be made<br />
pursuant to any European Union Directive on the taxation of savings implementing the conclusions of the ECOFIN Council<br />
meeting of June 3, 2003 or any law<br />
