The Leverage-Based Applicable Margin shall be determined by the Administrative Agent from time to time based on the Leverage Ratio as set forth in the Compliance Certificate most recently delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.3.  Any adjustment to the Leverage-Based Applicable Margin shall be effective as of the first day of the calendar month immediately following the month during which the Borrower delivers to the Administrative Agent the applicable Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 9.3.  If the Borrower fails to deliver a Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 9.3., the Leverage-Based Applicable Margin shall equal the percentages corresponding to Level 6, until the first day of the calendar month immediately following the month that the required Compliance Certificate is delivered.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, for the period from the Sixth Amendment Effective Date through but excluding the date on which the Administrative Agent first

 

4











 

determines the Leverage-Based Applicable Margin as set forth above, the Leverage-Based Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 1.  Thereafter, such Leverage-Based Applicable Margin shall be adjusted from time to time as set forth in this definition.  The provisions of this definition shall be subject to Section 2.5.(c).

 

“LIBOR” means, subject to the implementation of a Replacement Rate in accordance with Section 5.2.(ii), with respect to any LIBOR Loan for any Interest Period, the rate of interest obtained by dividing (i) the rate of interest per annum determined on the basis of the rate for deposits in U.S. Dollars for a period equal to the applicable Interest Period which appears on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or a comparable or successor quoting service approved by the Administrative Agent) at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of the applicable Interest Period by (ii) a percentage equal to 1 minus the Statutory Reserve Rate; provided that if as so determined LIBOR (including, without limitation, any Replacement Rate with respect thereto) shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.  If, for any reason, the rate referred to in the preceding clause (i) does not appear on Reuters Screen LIBOR01 Page (or any applicable successor page), then the rate to be used for such clause (i) shall be determined by the Administrative Agent to be the arithmetic average of the rate per annum at which deposits in U.S. Dollars would be offered by first class banks in the London interbank market to the Administrative Agent at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) two (2) Business Days prior to the first day of the applicable Interest Period for a period equal to such Interest Period; provided that if as so determined LIBOR shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.  Any change in the Statutory Reserve Rate shall result in a change in LIBOR on the date on which such change in such Statutory Reserve Rate becomes effective.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise specified in any amendment to this Agreement entered into in accordance with Section 5.2.(ii), in the event that a Replacement Rate with respect to LIBOR is implemented, then all references herein to LIBOR shall be deemed to be references to such Replacement Rate.

5











 

time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans plus two percent (2%).

During any period for which the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, has received three (3) Credit Ratings which are not equivalent, the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin will be determined by (a) the highest Credit Rating if the highest Credit Rating and the second highest Credit Rating differ by only one Level or (b) the average of the two highest Credit Ratings if they differ by two or more Levels (unless the average is not a recognized Level, in which case the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin will be based on the Credit Rating one Level below the Level corresponding to the highest Credit Rating).  During any period for which the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, has received only two (2) Credit Ratings and such Credit Ratings are not equivalent, the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin will be determined by (i) the highest Credit Rating if they differ by only one Level or (ii) the average of the two Credit Ratings if they differ by two or more Levels (unless the average is not a recognized Level, in which case the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin will be based on the Credit Rating one Level below the Level corresponding to the higher Credit Rating).  During any period for which the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, has received no Credit Rating from Fitch, if the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, also ceases to have a Credit Rating from one of S&P or Moody’s, then the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin shall be determined

 

6











 

based on the remaining such Credit Rating.  Notwithstanding any Credit Rating from Fitch, during any period in which neither S&P nor Moody’s has provided a Credit Rating corresponding to Level 4 or better to the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 5.

 

On the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date, the Ratings-Based Applicable Margin shall be determined based upon the Credit Rating(s) specified in the certificate delivered pursuant to clause (b) of the definition of “Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date”.  Thereafter, any change in the Borrower’s or the Parent Guarantor’s Credit Rating, as applicable, which would cause it to move to a different Level shall be effective as of the first day of the first calendar month immediately following receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice delivered by the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, in accordance with the Loan Documents that the Borrower’s or the Parent Guarantor’s Credit Rating, as applicable, has changed; provided, however, that if the Borrower or the Parent Guarantor, as applicable, has not delivered such required notice but the Administrative Agent becomes aware that the Borrower’s or the Parent Guarantor’s Credit Rating, as applicable, has changed, then the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion and upon written notice to the Borrower and the Lenders, adjust the Level effective as of the first day of the first calendar month following the date on which the Administrative Agent becomes aware that the Borrower’s or the Parent Guarantor’s Credit Rating, as applicable, has changed.

 

“Replacement Rate” has the meaning given that term in Section 5.2.(ii).

 

“Sixth Amendment Effective Date” means January 25, 2018.

 

“Syndication Agent” means PNC Bank, National Association.

 

(c)           Section 2.8.(a) of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(a)           Optional. Subject to Section 5.4., the Borrower may prepay the Loan in full or in part at any time without premium or penalty.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice at least two (2) Business Days prior to the prepayment of any LIBOR Loan or one (1) Business Day prior to the prepayment of any Base Rate Loan.  Each voluntary partial prepayment of the Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof.

 

(d)           Section 2.8.(c) of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

(c)           Intentionally Omitted.

(e)           Section 5.2. of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

 

Section 5.2.           Suspension of LIBOR Loans.

 

(i)  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, unless and until a Replacement Rate is implemented in accordance with clause (ii) below, if, on or prior to the determination of LIBOR for any Interest Period:

 

(a)           the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive) that reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period;

 

(b)           the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of LIBOR are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for LIBOR Loans as provided herein; or

 

(c)           the Administrative Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that the relevant rates of interest referred to in the definition of LIBOR upon the basis of which the rate of interest for LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period is to be determined are not likely to adequately cover the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

 

then the Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower and each Lender prompt notice thereof and, so long as such condition remains in effect, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to, and shall not, make additional LIBOR Loans, Continue LIBOR Loans or Convert Loans into LIBOR Loans and the Borrower shall, on the last day of each current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan, either prepay such Loan or Convert such Loan into a Base Rate Loan.

 

(ii)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.2.(i) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (a) the circumstances described in Section 5.2.(i)(a) or (i)(b) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (b) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in Dollars in the U.S. syndicated loan market or (c) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having or purporting to have jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in Dollars in the U.S. syndicated loan market, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with the Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with

 

8











 

similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 5.2.(i)(a) or (i)(b), 5.2.(ii)(a), 5.2.(ii)(b) or 5.2.(ii)(c) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Requisite Lenders through the Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate.  In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 5.2.(ii).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 13.7.), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Requisite Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects).  To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (ii), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice.

 

(f)            Section 7.1.(n) of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended to insert the following new sentence at the end thereof:

 

As of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower is not and will not be using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans.

 

(g)           Section 9.4. of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended to delete the “and” appearing at the end of clause (r) therein, delete the period (“.”) appearing at the end of clause (s) therein and insert “; and” in substitution therefor, and insert the following new Section 9.4.(t) after Section 9.4.(s) appearing therein:

 

(t)            From and after the Investment Grade Pricing Effective Date, promptly, upon any change in the Parent Guarantor’s or the Borrower’s Credit Rating, a certificate stating that such Credit Rating has changed and the new Credit Rating that is in effect.

 

9











 

(h)           Article XII. of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended to insert the following new Sections 12.11. and 12.12. immediately after Section 12.10. appearing therein:

(ii)           reduce the principal of, or interest rates that have accrued or that will be charged (subject to the last sentence of Section 13.7.(f)) on the outstanding principal amount of, the Loan or other Obligations (other than a waiver of default interest and changes in calculation of the Leverage Ratio that may indirectly affect pricing); provided, however, that only the written consent of the Requisite Lenders shall be required (x) for the waiver of interest payable at the Post-Default Rate, retraction of the imposition of interest at the Post-Default Rate and amendment of the definition of “Post-Default Rate” and (y) to amend any financial covenant hereunder (or any defined term used therein) even if the effect of such amendment would be to reduce the rate of interest on any Loan or to reduce any fee payable hereunder;

 

(j)            Section 13.7.(f) of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended to insert the following sentence at the end thereof:

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.7., the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the consent of any Lender, (x) enter into amendments or modifications to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or (y) enter into additional Loan Documents, in each case, as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems appropriate in order to implement any Replacement Rate or otherwise effectuate the terms of Section 5.2.(ii) in accordance with the terms of Section 5.2.(ii).

 

(k)           Schedule I of the Existing Term Loan Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as set forth on Annex II hereto.

(ii)           no litigation, action, suit, investigation or other arbitral, administrative or judicial proceeding shall be pending or threatened in writing which could reasonably be expected to (A) result in a Material

(iv)          the Borrower and each other Loan Party shall have provided all information requested by the Administrative Agent and each Lender in order to comply with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including without limitation, the Patriot Act.

4.             Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower and the Parent Guarantor each hereby certifies that: (a) no Default or Event of Default exists as of the date hereof or would exist immediately after giving effect to this Amendment; (b) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party are true and correct in all material respects (unless any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation and warranty is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects (unless any such representation and warranty is qualified by materiality, in which event such representation and warranty was true and correct in all respects) on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances permitted under the Loan Documents; (c) no consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration or filing with, any third party (other than any required filing with the SEC, which the Borrower agrees to file in a timely manner or filings or recordations required in connection with the perfection of any Lien on the Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent) is required in connection with the execution, delivery and carrying out of this Amendment or, if required, has been obtained; and (d) this Amendment has been duly authorized, executed and delivered so that it constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower and the Parent Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations contained herein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.  The Borrower and the Parent Guarantor each confirms that the Obligations

 

15











 

remain outstanding without defense, set off, counterclaim, discount or charge of any kind as of the date of this Amendment.  Except as expressly provided herein, this Amendment shall not constitute an amendment, waiver, consent or release with respect to any provision of any Loan Document, a waiver of any default or Event of Default under any Loan Document, or a waiver or release of any of the Lenders’ or the Administrative Agent’s rights and remedies (all of which are hereby reserved).

 

5.             Ratification.  Without in any way establishing a course of dealing by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower, the Parent Guarantor and each Subsidiary Guarantor each hereby reaffirms and confirms its obligations under the Amended Term Loan Agreement, the Guaranty (solely with respect to the Parent Guarantor and the Subsidiary Guarantors) and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party and each and every such Loan Document executed by the undersigned in connection with the Existing Term Loan Agreement remains in full force and effect and is hereby reaffirmed, ratified and confirmed.  This Amendment is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation.  All references to the Existing Term Loan Agreement contained in the above-referenced documents shall be a reference to the Amended Term Loan Agreement and as the same may from time to time hereafter be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified.

 

6.             GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

7.             Counterparts.  To facilitate execution, this Amendment and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts as may be convenient or required.  It shall not be necessary that the signature of, or on behalf of, each party, or that the signature of all persons required to bind any party, appear on each counterpart.  All counterparts shall collectively constitute a single document.  It shall not be necessary in making proof of this document to produce or account for more than a single counterpart containing the respective signatures of, or on behalf of, each of the parties hereto.

 

8.             Headings.  The headings of this Amendment are provided for convenience of reference only and shall not affect its construction or interpretation.

 

9.             Miscellaneous.  This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document under the Amended Term Loan Agreement.  This Amendment expresses the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby.  No prior negotiations or discussions shall limit, modify, or otherwise affect the provisions hereof.  Any determination that any provision of this Amendment or any application hereof is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any respect and in any instance shall not affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of such provision in any other instance, or the validity, legality, or enforceability of any other provisions of this Amendment.  Each of the Borrower and the Parent Guarantor represents and warrants that it has consulted with independent legal counsel of its selection in connection herewith and is not relying

 

16











 

on any representations or warranties of the Administrative Agent or its counsel in entering into this Amendment.

 

10.          Departing Lenders.  Certain Lenders have agreed that they shall no longer constitute Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Agreement as of the date hereof (each, a “Departing Lender”).  Each Lender that executes and delivers a signature page hereto that identifies it as a Departing Lender shall constitute a Departing Lender and, as of the date hereof, each applicable Departing Lender shall not be a Lender under the Amended Term Loan Agreement.  No Departing Lender shall have any rights, duties or obligations under the Amended Term Loan Agreement.  All amounts owing to a Departing Lender, including all accrued and unpaid interest and fees but excluding any outstanding Loans owed to such Departing Lender (which Loans shall be assigned and reallocated among the remaining Lenders as set forth below), shall be paid by the Borrower to such Departing Lender concurrently with payment of such amounts to the other applicable Lenders.  The consent of a Departing Lender is not required to give effect to the changes contemplated by this Amendment.  Each Departing Lender hereby assigns its Loans to the remaining Lenders as of the date hereof, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to take such steps under the Amended Term Loan Agreement as reasonably required to give effect to the departure of the Departing Lenders, including, without limitation, reallocating outstanding obligations among the continuing Lenders ratably based on their respective Pro Rata Share of the Loans as set forth on Schedule I to the Amended Term Loan Agreement, and any related sales, assignments or other relevant actions in respect of each Departing Lender’s existing Loans.  The Borrower agrees with and consents to the foregoing.  For the avoidance of doubt, the term “Lender” excludes the Departing Lenders (except to the extent of any claim made by a Departing Lender pursuant to Sections 13.2. and 13.10. of the Amended Term Loan Agreement in its capacity as a “Lender” under the Existing Term Loan Agreement prior to such Lender becoming a Departing Lender).  Without limiting the foregoing, the parties hereto (including, without limitation, each Departing Lender) hereby agree that the consent of any Departing Lender shall be limited to the acknowledgements and agreements set forth in this Section 10 and shall not be required as a condition to the effectiveness of any other amendments, restatements, supplements or modifications to the Amended Term Loan Agreement or the Loan Documents.
