Section 14.2. Dividends may only be distributed once all applicable contractual and other legal requirements are met.

Section 14.3.

8

that the JV has distributable cash at the date of the proposed dividend distribution, which means that no borrowed money can be used to pay dividends.

For such purposes the party making the request shall notify the other party of its request in such a way as to prove the date of sending and the contents of the same to the other party, detailing the amount that it wishes to have distributed as dividends, attaching to the communication the audited Annual Accounts of the JV for such fiscal year and written confirmation by the Company’s independent auditors that the closing balance sheet in such Annual Accounts complies with the requirements of article 213 of the Ley de Sociedades Anónimas.

DEADLOCK PROCEDURE

Section 15.1 If while the Agreement is in force a serious and repeated disagreement arises between Loews and its Permitted Transferees acting together as a group representing 50% of the share capital of the JV on the one hand, and RE arid his Permitted Transferee acting together as a group representing 50% of the share capital of the JV on the other hand resulting in a failure to reach a majority resolution regarding a matter that is submitted to either a Partners Meeting or the Board of Directors within the sphere of their respective competence which is essential for the normal running of the business or that prevents the normal development of the projects and activities of the JV or its Subsidiaries (a “Disagreement”), the parties agree to apply the following rules:

(a) Once aware of the existence of a Disagreement between the parties, both undertake to negotiate in good faith, a solution to the Disagreement that results in a resolution of the Board of Directors or the Partners Meeting, or that in any other manner satisfies both parties and is reflected in a written agreement, for a period of 60 (sixty) calendar days (the “Negotiating Period”) from the receipt of written notification regarding the Disagreement by either of the parties from the other party, unless the parties otherwise agree.

Section 15.2 (a) Either of the parties may initiate the Spin-off procedure immediately after the expiry of the Negotiating Period by giving notice (the “Spin-off Notice”) to the other party if no solution, as provided for in Section 15.1 (b), has been reached. The purpose of the Spin-off shall be the division by the Independent Expert appointed in accordance with the procedure established in Section 15.2 (b), of all the assets and liabilities of the JV and its Subsidiaries (including the personnel) into two separate blocks, each of them with equivalent value and content and each capable of operating separately, and each of the blocks shall be transferred by the JV in accordance with the Plan to newly incorporated limited liability companies (the “Beneficiary Companies”), in accordance with the spin-off process established in articles 94 and related articles of the Law on Limited Liability Companies, (the “LSRL”). The units of said Beneficiary Companies shall be allocated to the partners of the JV as compensation for the liquidation of the JV. Both parties agree hereby, as required by article 252 of the Law on Stock Companies (the “LSA”), to which the LSRL refers to, that all the units of one of the Beneficiary Companies of the Spin-off shall be allocated to the partners holding Class A Units, and that all the units of the other Beneficiary Company of the Spin-off shall be allocated to the other partners holding Class B Units.

(iii) The appointment of the Independent Expert, which shall at the same time, be communicated to both parties, shall be made by the Dean within 10 working days of receipt of the Request made by the Notifying Partner. The appointment by the Dean will indicate the tasks of the Independent Expert as provided for in Annex 15.2(b)(iii) [a transcription of this Article XV].

(iv) Any other communications related to the appointment of the Independent Expert shall be sent by the Requesting or Notifying Partner, as applicable, to the other party immediately upon sending or receiving any communication.

If they cannot agree, either party may notify the Independent Expert of their failure to agree and request that the allocation of

12

said blocks shall be done according to a random drawing before the Independent Expert. The drawing shall take place within 5 (five) days of the sending of the notice referred to in this paragraph on the date and at the place that the Independent Expert communicates to the partners. The Independent Expert shall establish the procedure for the drawing. The procedure shall be transparent and communicated to the parties prior to the drawing.

Section 15.2.(e) As a result of the creation of the blocks, their allocation to the Beneficiary Companies, and the allocation of the Beneficiary Companies to the Partners according to 15.2(d) the parties as partners to the JV shall take all steps necessary under Spanish law to cause the JV and its Subsidiaries to effect the Spin-off in the terms and conditions set forth in the Report of the Independent Expert. Both parties hereby undertake to favourably vote for said Spin-off resolution, cause the corresponding deed of spin-off to be granted and cause the directors they have appointed to sign and approve the Plan and the Directors’ Report required by the LSRL based on the Report prepared by the Independent Expert, deposit the Plan, have prepared the information for the partners, publish the announcements, and register the Spin-off deeds, all as required by law.

Section 15.2.(f) The breach by one of the parties (the “Breaching Partner”) of its obligation to appear at the Partners Meeting, vote in favor of the Spin-off resolution on the terms herein agreed, of its obligation to grant the corresponding deeds or, in general, to take any other legally required action to carry out the Spin-off, shall give the other party (the “Performing Partner”) the right to seek in arbitration, according to the procedure provided for in Article XIII of the Amended Agreement, the specific performance of the Spin-off and what it implies, in the form and according to the division of assets and liabilities made by the Independent Expert according to what is established in the preceding sections. The parties hereby expressly undertake to comply with the arbitration award issued by the arbitrators hearing any such dispute.

The fees incurred from the arbitration proceeding mentioned in the above paragraph shall be paid by the Breaching Partner, unless, taking into the account the circumstances of the case, the arbitration tribunal decides otherwise.

Section 15.2.(g) If, once the arbitration award is issued, its execution is impossible due to causes attributable to one of the parties, even by virtue of the substitution of will foreseen in articles 705 and related of the Civil Procedure Act, the party that had made impossible the execution of the arbitration award shall give to the other party as equivalent compliance, 1% of the units that it holds in the JV.

Likewise both parties undertake to keep confidentially for the same three year period the knowledge that each party and the employees of the Beneficiary Companies have of the other Beneficiary Company.
