Section 1.02 Headings The headings of individual Articles and Sections of this Guarantee Agreement and the Table of Contents are inserted for convenience of reference only and do not form part of this Agreement.

(b) The Guarantor shall ensure that no action which would prevent or interfere with the execution of the Project or with the efficient operation of the Project facilities or the performance of the Borrower's obligations under the Loan Agreement is taken or permitted to be taken by the Guarantor or any of its political or administrative subdivisions or any of the entities owned or controlled by, or operating for the account or benefit of, the Guarantor or such subdivisions.

("kreditojemalec" ali "DARS") zaprosila banko za pomoč pri financiranju dela projekta (kot opredeljeno v spodaj navedeni kreditni pogodbi); glede na to, da je s kreditno pogodbo med banko in kreditojemalcem ("kreditna pogodba") z istim datumom, kot ga ima ta dokument, banka pristala; da dodeli kreditojemalcu kredit v znesku 32.100.000 USD ("kredit") pod pogoji, ki so določeni v kreditni pogodbi, toda le če garant pristane, da bo jamčil za obveznosti kreditojemalca v zvezi s tem kreditom v skladu z določbami te pogodbe, in glede na to, da je garant na osnovi tega, da banka sklepa kreditno pogodbo s kreditojemalcem, pristal, da bo jamčil za te obveznosti kreditojemalca, sta se pogodbenici dogovorili naslednje: Poglavje 1.01. Opredelitve Izrazi, ki so opredeljeni v uvodu k tej pogodbi ali v kreditni pogodbi, imajo v tej pogodbi pomen, ki jim je tam dodeljen. Navedeni izrazi pomenijo: "pravica do zaplembe" pomeni vse vrste hipotek, zastav, obremenitev, privilegijev in prioritet; in "javno premoženje" pomeni kakršnokoli lastnino, prihodke ali terjatve garanta, katerekoli njegove politične ali upravne enote ali subjekta, ki je v lasti garanta ali pod njegovim nadzorom ali posluje za račun oziroma v korist garanta ali take enote, vključno zlato ter druga devizna sredstva, ki jih ima katerakoli ustanova, ki opravlja funkcijo centralne banke ali deviznega stabilizacijskega fonda ali podobne funkcije za garanta. Poglavje 1.02. Naslovi Naslovi, posameznih členov in poglavij te garancijske pogodbe in vsebina so dodani zaradi lažje uporabe in niso sestavni del te pogodbe. Poglavje 2.01. Garancija (a) Garant na tem mestu ne le kot garant, ampak kot glavni zavezanec, brezpogojno jamči ustrezno in pravočasno plačilo vsakršne vsote, ki bo zapadla v plačilo po kreditni pogodbi ob navedeni ali predčasni dospelosti, in pravočasno izpolnjevanje vseh drugih obveznosti kreditojemalca v skladu z določbami kreditne pogodbe. (b) Garant bo zagotovil, da niti on sam niti kaka od njegovih političnih ali upravnih enot ali kak subjekt, ki je v njegovi lasti ali pod njegovim nadzorom ali deluje za račun oziroma v korist garanta ali take enote, ne bo sprejel oziroma dovolil sprejeti nobenega ukrepa, ki bi preprečeval ali motil izvedbo projekta ali učinkovito delovanje s projektom povezanih naprav oziroma izpolnjevanje obveznosti kreditojemalca po kreditni pogodbi. Poglavje 2.02. Dokončanje projekta Garant se obvezuje, da bo v primerih, ko lahko upravičeno domneva, da sredstva, ki so kreditojemalcu na razpolago, ne bodo zadostovala za pokrivanje predvidenih izdatkov za izvedbo projekta, sprejel vse potrebne ukrepe za njegovo pravočasno dokončanje. Poglavje 3.01. Finančni in ekonomski podatki (a) Garant bo posredoval banki vse podatke, ki jih bo ta lahko upravičeno zahtevala:
