(2) 3.01 U skladu sa ovim ugovorom, zahtev za aktiviranje garancije može se uputiti neposredno nakon što Zajmoprimac, bilo na dan plaćanja, bilo po zahtevu za prevremenu otplatu ili na neki drugi datum, ne izvrši obaveze koje su garantovane članom 2. ovog ugovora, bilo u celosti ili delimično.

(3) 3.02 Garant se ovim putem neopozivo odriče prava na bilo kakav prigovor ili izuzeće u zakonu u vezi sa celokupnim ili delimičnim sprovođenjem Ugovora o garanciji. Garant se obavezuje da će izmiriti svoje obaveze odmah nakon dobijanja prvog pisanog zahteva Banke i da će platiti dospele iznose bez ikakvih ograničenja, zadržavanja ili uslovljavanja, i bez nametanja obaveze Banci da uz svoj pisani zahtev priloži neke posebne dokaze osim onog kojim se obrazlaže razlog za podnošenje zahteva u skladu sa ovim ugovorom. Pre svega, Banka nije dužna da podnese dokaze o tome da je preduzela bilo kakve mere protiv Zajmoprimca i nema obavezu da, pre stupanja na snagu ovog ugovora, aktivira bilo koji instrument obezbeđenja koji je ponudio Zajmoprimac ili neka treća strana.

(4) 3.03 Svaki Garantovani iznos dospeće na plaćanje Garantu tri (3) Radna dana nakon datuma relevantnog zahteva i plaćanje će se izvršiti u valuti Garantovanog iznosa i na račun naveden u zahtevu.

(5) 3.04 U slučaju da Banka podnese zahtev u skladu sa ovim ugovorom, Garant će imati pravo da neposredno nakon toga plati Banci, kao potpuno i konačno izmirenje svojih obaveza iz ovog ugovora, iznos Zajma koji je na dan pomenutog plaćanja ostao neotplaćen, zajedno sa kamatom koja je prirasla do tog dana i svakim drugim Garantovanim iznosom koji je Zajmoprimac dužan da plati na taj dan. Uz to, Garant je dužan da plati i bilo koje obeštećenje koje je plativo u skladu sa članom 4.03C Finansijskog ugovora u slučaju da Zajmoprimac svojevoljno prevremeno otplati preostali iznos Zajma na dan plaćanja iz ovog člana 3.04.

(6) 3.05 Garancija iz ovog ugovora ostaće na snazi sve dok svi Garantovani iznosi ne budu u potpunosti i bezuslovno plaćeni ili izmireni.

Član 4

(1) Subrogacija

(2) 4.01 Kada Garant izvrši plaćanje prema Banci on ima pravo na subrogaciju, do iznosa tog plaćanja, na prava i mere koje se odnose na pomenuto plaćanje, a koje Banka ima prema Zajmoprimcu. Ovo pravo na subrogaciju neće se ostvarivati na štetu Banke.

(3) Garant je saglasan da, dokle god postoje obaveze Zajmoprimca, bilo stvarne ili uslovne a koje proizlaze iz Finansijskog ugovora, ne koristi prava koja je stekao, u bilo koje vreme, po osnovu izvršenja svojih obaveza po ovom ugovoru o garanciji, i to:

(4) (i) pravo da bude regresiran od Zajmoprimca, ili da dobije bilo koje sredstvo obezbeđenja od Zajmoprimca; i/ili

(5) (ii) da traži učešće u nadoknadi bilo kog drugog garanta za obaveze Zajmoprimca po Finansijskom ugovoru; i/ili

(6) (iii) da iskoristi bilo koje pravo Banke (u celosti ili delimično i to po osnovu subrogacije ili drugom osnovu) po Finansijskom ugovoru, ili sredstvo obezbeđenja Banke ustanovljeno u skladu ili u vezi sa Finansijskim ugovorom; i/ili

(7) (iv) da se namiri iz sredstava obezbeđenja koje je Garant dobio od Zajmoprimca, u vezi sa subrogacijom Garanta u prava prema Zajmoprimcu po ovom ugovoru o garanciji.

Član 5

(1) Izmene Finansijskog ugovora

(2) 5.01 Banka može odobriti izmene Finansijskog ugovora koje utiču na poboljšanje ili jačanje pozicije Banke u odnosu na Zajmoprimca bez uvećavanja obaveza Garanta, koji će biti obavešten o svakoj takvoj izmeni.

(3) 5.02 Banka može odobriti Zajmoprimcu produženje roka datuma dospeća glavnice, kamate ili drugih dospelih obaveza za plaćanje iz Finansijskog ugovora najduže do tri kalendarska meseca. Garant će biti obavešten o svakom pomenutom produženju roka.

(4) 5.03 Svaka druga izmena Finansijskog ugovora zavisiće od prethodne pisane saglasnosti Garanta, koja će biti uskraćena samo u slučaju ako Garant bude opravdano smatrao da će njegove obaveze na taj način biti materijalno uvećane ili proširene.

(1) Porezi, naknade i troškovi

(2) 6.01 Poreze ili fiskalne naknade, zakonske troškove i druge izdatke koji mogu nastati u toku sprovođenja ovog ugovora snosiće Garant. Garant će izvršavati ovde predviđena plaćanja bez ikakvih umanjenja ili zadržavanja po osnovu poreza ili fiskalnih naknada.

(1) Obezbeđenje

(2) Ukoliko Garant da trećoj strani bilo koji vid obezbeđenja za realizaciju bilo kog Instrumenta zaduženja, odnosno da prednost ili prioritet, Garant će, ukoliko to Banka zatraži, obezbediti Banci ekvivalentno obezbeđenje za ispunjenje svojih obaveza iz ovog ugovora ili joj dati ekvivalentnu prednost ili prioritet.

(3) U smislu ovog člana, Instrument zaduženja znači (i) instrument, uključujući i svaku priznanicu ili izvod sa računa koji dokazuje ili predstavlja obavezu da se otplati zajam, depozit, avans ili sličan vid kredita (uključujući bez ograničenja i svako davanje kredita po osnovu sporazuma o refinansiranju ili reprogramu), (ii) obavezu na osnovu obveznice, dužničke hartije od vrednosti ili sličnog pisanog dokaza o zaduženju i (iii) garanciju obaveze koja proističe iz Instrumenta zaduženja, pod uslovom da je u svakom od slučajeva obaveza regulisana zakonskim sistemom koji nije zakon Zajmoprimca.

Član 8

(1) Informacije

(2) A. Sve dok je Zajam neotplaćen, Garant će bez odlaganja obavestiti Banku uz eksplicitno upućivanje na ovu garanciju o:

(3) (i) bilo kom obezbeđenju, odnosno prednosti ili prioritetu, koji Banci obezbeđuje pravo da zahteva da se ekvivalentno obezbeđenje, prednost ili prioritet iz člana 7. Finansijskog ugovora obezbedi ili da već postoji;

(4) (ii) bilo kom događaju koji je naveden u članu 4.03A(6) ili članu 10.01A (l) Finansijskog ugovora.
