9.9 held by or on behalf of a Noteholder in circumstances where such party could lawfully reduce the amount of
taxation otherwise levied or leviable upon the principal or interest by virtue of any tax treaty or non-South African

or part of the amount withheld or otherwise, and whether or not it is actually claimed and/or granted and/or
