Each change in the Applicable Margin based on the Corporate Ratings shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change.  If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “Applicable Margin” to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Margin shall be determined by reference to the Corporate Rating  most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

At any time upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Applicable Percentage shall be set at Pricing Level II (or, for any day after the First Amendment Restatement Date, other than during a Lien Suspension Period, Pricing Level III) of the applicable table above.

Each change in the Applicable Percentage based on the Corporate Ratings shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change.  If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Lenders shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “Applicable Percentage” to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Percentage shall be determined by reference to the Corporate Rating  most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

(a)    For purposes of calculating the Leverage Ratio and the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio, all Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness by Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries and the granting or terminating of any Liens in connection therewith) that have been consummated (i) during the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters for which such financial ratio is being determined (the “Test Period”) or (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or substantially simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in EBITDA and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period.
(b)    If pro forma effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions (and certified in writing) by a Financial Officer of Holdings and include only those adjustments that are (A) directly attributable to the Specified Transactions with respect to which such adjustments are to be made, (B) factually supportable and reasonably identifiable (in the good faith determination of a Financial Officer of Holdings) (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the adjustments referred to above (and subject to the requirements specified therein) may include adjustments that reflect cost savings, operating expense reductions, and synergies as described in clause (l) of the definition of “EBITDA”). For the avoidance of doubt, all pro forma adjustments shall be 


53
[[3666665]]









consistent with, and subject to, the caps and limits set forth in the applicable definitions herein. To the extent compliance with the Financial Covenant is being tested prior to the first test date under the Financial Covenant, in order to determine permissibility of any action by Holdings or the Restricted Subsidiaries, such compliance shall be tested against the applicable ratio for such first test date. 
(c)    In the event that Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included directly or indirectly in the calculation of the Leverage Ratio or the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility (including the Revolving Credit Facility) in the Ordinary Course of Business for working capital purposes) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or substantially simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Leverage Ratio and/or the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period.
(d)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent that the terms of this Agreement require (i) compliance with any financial ratio or test (including any Leverage Ratio test, any Senior Secured Leverage Ratio test or the amount of Total Assets or the amount of EBITDA) or (ii) the absence of a Default or Event of Default (or any type of Default or Event of Default) as a condition to the making of any Limited Condition Acquisition or incurrence of Indebtedness in connection therewith, the determination of whether the relevant condition is satisfied may be made, at the election of the Borrower, at the time of (or on the basis of the financial statements for the most recently ended Test Period at the time of) either (x) the execution of the definitive agreement with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition or (y) the consummation of the Limited Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, in each case, after giving effect to the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, on a pro forma basis; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, the absence of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a) or (e) shall be a condition to the consummation of any such Limited Condition Acquisition and incurrence of Indebtedness. If the Borrower has made such an election to test at the time of the execution of the definitive agreement with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition, then, in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or test on or following the relevant determination date, and prior to the earlier of (x) the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated or (y) the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or test shall be calculated on (A) a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition or any transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness, Liens and the use of proceeds thereof) has been consummated, and also on (B) a standalone basis without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and any such transactions in connection therewith. In addition, if the proceeds of an Incremental Commitment are to be used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, then at the option of the Borrower and subject to the agreement of the lenders providing such financing, the commitments in respect thereof may be subject to customary “SunGard” conditionality. 
(e)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any such amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio (including Section 6.15 hereof, any Senior Secured Leverage Ratio test or any Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Ratio-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to any substantially concurrent utilization of the Ratio-Based Amounts; 


54
[[3666665]]









provided that the foregoing shall not apply to Restricted Payments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a financial ratio or test, at all times prior to the first delivery of financial statements pursuant to Section 5.08(a) or (b), compliance shall be determined based on the pro forma consolidated financial statements of Holdings delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(j) hereof.
SECTION 1.08.    Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Credit Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a “Eurocurrency Rate Loan”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Credit Loan”). Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Credit Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a “Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Eurocurrency Rate Revolving Credit Borrowing”).

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to make a single loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in Dollars in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term Commitment. Amounts borrowed in respect of the Term Loans and repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. The initial Term Borrowing shall consist of Term Loans made simultaneously by the Term Lenders in accordance with their respective initial Term Commitments. 
(a)    The Revolving Credit Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, to make Revolving Credit Loans in Dollars to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date in an amount not to exceed such Revolving Credit Lender’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that in no event shall (x) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date (including any such advances used to finance the Transactions) exceed $200,000,000 and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date that are used to finance the Transactions exceed $50,000,000. Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an amount not less than the Revolving Credit Borrowing Minimum or the Revolving Credit Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof and shall consist of Revolving Credit Loans of the same Type made on the same day by the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably according to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the limits of each Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(b), prepay pursuant to Section 2.10 and reborrow under this Section 2.01(b).
(b)    Letters of Credit. (i) Each Issuing Bank agrees, on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in this Agreement, to issue Letters of Credit (which shall not, unless otherwise agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank, be trade or commercial letters of credit) (each, a “Letter of Credit”) denominated in Dollars (or, subject to Section 1.05, any other currency) for the account of Holdings, the Borrower and the other Restricted Subsidiaries from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until 5 Business Days before the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date in an aggregate Stated Amount (i) for all Letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank not to exceed at any time the lesser of (x) the Letter of Credit Facility at such time and (y) such Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment at such time, (ii) for each such Letter of Credit not to exceed an amount equal to the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders at such time and (iii) for all Letters of Credit issued by all Issuing Banks not to exceed at any time the Letter 


55
[[3666665]]









of Credit Facility. Within the limits referred to above, the Borrower may from time to time request the issuance of Letters of Credit under this Section 2.01(c).
(i)    No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date (including all rights of the Borrower or the beneficiary to require renewal) later than the earlier of (x) 5 Business Days before the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date and (y) one year after the date of Issuance thereof (or such longer period agreed to by the applicable Issuing Bank in its sole discretion which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (x) above), but may by its terms be renewable annually automatically or upon written notice (a “Notice of Renewal”) given to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Agent on or prior to any date for Notice of Renewal set forth in such Letter of Credit but in any event at least three Business Days prior to the date of the expiration of such Letter of Credit (or such shorter period as the Issuing Bank shall agree); provided, that the terms of each Letter of Credit that is automatically renewable annually (“Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”) shall permit the applicable Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such 12-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than five Business Days before the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date; provided, however, that such Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has reasonably determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit (as extended) under the terms hereof, or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from the Agent, any Lender or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.
(c)    Each Lender having an Incremental Term Commitment, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees, subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
SECTION 2.02.    Making the Loans. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 2.03(c), each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than (x) noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day (in the case of the proposed Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date, 9:00 A.M. (New York City time) one Business Day (or such shorter period as is approved by the Agent)) prior to the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or (y) noon (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Loans, by the Borrower to the Agent, which shall give to each Appropriate Lender prompt notice thereof by fax or e-mail. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”) shall be by telephone, confirmed immediately in writing, or fax in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (or in such other form as may be acceptable to the Agent), specifying therein the requested (i) date and Facility of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Loans comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount of such Borrowing, and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, initial Interest Period. Each Appropriate Lender shall (1) before noon (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (2) before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the date of such Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Base Rate Loans, make available for the account of its Applicable 


56
[[3666665]]









Lending Office to the Agent at the applicable Agent’s Account, in same day funds, such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing. After the Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, the Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the Agent’s address referred to in Section 9.02 or at the applicable Payment Office, as the case may be. Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein to the contrary, the last day of each Interest Period in effect with respect to each Revolving Credit Loan and Term Loan outstanding immediately prior to the First Amendment Restatement Date shall be deemed to be the First Amendment Restatement Date, and on the First Amendment Restatement Date, the Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan that is accrued and unpaid through but excluding the First Amendment Restatement Date at the rate per annum applicable to such Interest Period under Section 2.07(a)(i) or 2.07(a)(ii), as applicable. Each Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan outstanding as of the First Amendment Restatement Date will be deemed continued on the First Amendment Restatement Date as a Revolving Credit Loan or Term Loan, as applicable, with an initial Interest Period as set forth on the notice of continuation attached as Exhibit A to the First Amendment. 
(a)    Anything in subsection (a) above to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) the Borrower may not select Eurocurrency Rate Loans for any Borrowing if the aggregate amount of such Borrowing is less than the Borrowing Minimum or if the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall then be suspended pursuant to Section 2.08 or 2.12, and (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate Loans may not be outstanding as part of more than six separate Term Borrowings and ten separate Revolving Credit Borrowings.
(b)    Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing that the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Borrower shall indemnify each Appropriate Lender against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth herein, including any loss (including loss of margin), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.
(c)    Unless the Agent shall have received notice from an Appropriate Lender prior to the time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Agent, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Agent, at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.
(d)    The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.04(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Appropriate Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 9.04(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Appropriate Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 9.04(c).

[[3666665]]









SECTION 2.03.    Issuance of and Drawings and Reimbursement Under Letters of Credit. (a) Request for Issuance. (i) Each Letter of Credit shall be issued upon notice, given not later than noon (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Issuance of such Letter of Credit (or on such shorter notice as the applicable Issuing Bank may agree), by the Borrower to any Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall give the Agent, prompt notice thereof. Each such notice by the Borrower of an Issuance of a Letter of Credit (a “Notice of Issuance”) shall, if required by the applicable Issuing Bank, be accompanied by a letter of credit application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer (or designee thereof) of the Borrower and may be sent by fax, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by such Issuing Bank, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to such Issuing Bank, specifying therein the requested (A) date of such Issuance (which shall be a Business Day), (B) Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit, (C) expiration date of such Letter of Credit, (D) name and address of the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit and (E) form of such Letter of Credit. Each Letter of Credit shall be issued pursuant to such form of an application and agreement for issuance or amendment of a letter of credit as is used from time to time by such Issuing Bank (a “Letter of Credit Agreement”). If the requested form of such Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion (it being understood and agreed that any such form shall have only explicit documentary conditions to draw and shall not include discretionary conditions), such Issuing Bank shall, unless such Issuing Bank has received written notice from any Lender or the Agent, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of Issuance of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 3.02 shall not then be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit for the account of Holdings, the Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable, in each case in accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit Issuance as such Issuing Bank or the Agent may reasonably require. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuing Banks may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.
(ii) The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of non-compliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
(a)    Participations. By the Issuance of a Letter of Credit (including an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing or decreasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby agrees to each such participation. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay in Dollars to the Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Ratable Share of each drawing (or the Ratable Share of the Equivalent in Dollars of any such drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars) made under a Letter of Credit funded by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date required under Section 2.03(c), or of any reimbursement payment thereafter required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, which amount will be advanced, and 


58
[[3666665]]









deemed to be a Revolving Credit Loan to the Borrower hereunder, regardless of the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit at each time such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment is amended pursuant to an assignment in accordance with Section 9.07 or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement and at each time the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit is adjusted in accordance with the terms hereof.
(b)    Drawing and Reimbursement. (i) The payment by an Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit which is not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date made shall constitute for all purposes of this Agreement the making by any such Issuing Bank of a Revolving Credit Loan, which shall be a Base Rate Loan, in the amount of such draft (or the Equivalent in Dollars of any such draft for a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars), without regard to whether the making of such a Loan would exceed such Issuing Bank’s Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Issuing Bank shall give prompt notice of each drawing under any Letter of Credit issued by it to the Borrower and the Agent. The Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank no later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the first Business Day following any such drawing, which reimbursement shall be through the Agent and (x) in Dollars (in the case of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars) or (y) in the applicable currency (in the case of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars), unless in the case of this clause (y) such Issuing Bank (at its sole option) notifies the Borrower that it shall require reimbursement in Dollars (and the amount equal to the Equivalent in Dollars of the amount of such drawing), in which case such reimbursement shall be in Dollars. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank by such time, the Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the amount of the unreimbursed drawing, and the amount of such Lender’s Ratable Share in Dollars thereof (or Ratable Share of the Equivalent in Dollars of any such drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than Dollars). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Agent shall transfer such funds to the applicable Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to fund its Ratable Share in Dollars of an outstanding Revolving Credit Loan made by an Issuing Bank as aforesaid on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by such Issuing Bank; provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on such Business Day, or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. If and to the extent that any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Loan available to the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender agrees to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount (together with interest thereon for each day from the date of demand by any such Issuing Bank until the date such amount is paid to the Agent, at the higher of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by such Issuing Bank in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation). A certificate of an Issuing Bank submitted to any Revolving Credit Lender (through the Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.03(c) shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If such Lender shall pay to the Agent such amount for the account of any such Issuing Bank on any Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute a Revolving Credit Loan made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and 


59
[[3666665]]









the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loan made by such Issuing Bank shall be reduced by such amount on such Business Day.
(i)    If any payment received by the Agent for the account of an Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned because it is invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Ratable Share in Dollars thereof on demand of the Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the greater of (1) the Federal Funds Rate and (2) an overnight rate determined by the Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. The obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the obligations and the termination of this Agreement.
(c)    Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (i) to the Agent (with a copy to the Borrower), on the first Business Day of each week a written report summarizing Issuance and expiration dates of trade Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding week and drawings during such week under all trade Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, (ii) to the Agent (with a copy to the Borrower), on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing Issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit Issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of Credit Issued by such Issuing Bank and (iii) to the Agent (with a copy to the Borrower), on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth (A) the average daily aggregate Stated Amount and (B) the amount available to be drawn, in each case, during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit Issued by such Issuing Bank. The Agent shall give to each Revolving Credit Lender prompt notice of each report delivered to it pursuant to this Section 2.03(d).
(d)    Failure to Make Loans. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make the Revolving Credit Loan to be made by it on the date specified in Section 2.03(c) shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Revolving Credit Loan on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Revolving Credit Loan to be made by such other Lender on such date.
(e)    Applicability of ISP and UCP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Banks and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each trade Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuing Bank shall be responsible to the Borrower for, and no Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including any order of a jurisdiction where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.
(f)    Letters of Credit Issued for Others. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, Holdings or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Borrower), the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing 


60
[[3666665]]









Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Holdings and the other Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of Holdings and the other Restricted Subsidiaries.
SECTION 2.04.    Fees. (a) Commitment Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date and until the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date, at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Percentage (as in effect from time to time) of the aggregate daily amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing September 30, 2016, and on the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date (in respect of the quarterly period (or portion thereof) then ending).
(a)    Letter of Credit Fees. (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a letter of credit fee on such Lender’s Ratable Share of the average daily aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility (as in effect from time to time), payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2016, and on the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date (in respect of the quarterly period (or portion thereof) then ending); provided that for purposes of the foregoing the Applicable Margin shall be 2% above the Applicable Margin otherwise applicable if the Borrower is required to pay Default Interest pursuant to Section 2.07(b).
(i)    The Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee at a rate equal to 0.125% per annum, computed on the daily aggregate Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each of March, June, September and December, commencing with the quarter ending September 30, 2016, and on the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date (in respect of the quarterly period (or portion thereof) then ending). In addition, the Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, such other commissions, issuance fees, transfer fees and other fees and charges in connection with the Issuance or administration of each Letter of Credit as the Borrower and such Issuing Bank shall agree.

and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Agreement and such other agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including the following circumstances (it being understood and agreed that any such payment by the Borrower is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, any rights the Borrower might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by the applicable Issuing Bank or any Revolving Credit Lender of any draft or the reimbursement by the Borrower thereof):
(ii)    any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Note, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”);
(iii)    any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of Holdings, the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents;

(v)    any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(ix)    honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;

(xi)    any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Holdings, the Borrower or any other Restricted Subsidiary.

(ii)    Base Rate Loans. During such periods as such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the sum of (x) the Base Rate in effect from time to time for such Loan plus (y) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time for such Loan, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each March, June, September and December during such periods and on the date such Base Rate Loan shall be Converted or paid in full.

63
[[3666665]]









(b)    Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 7.01(a), including as a result of the acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Section 7.01, the Borrower shall be required to pay interest (“Default Interest”) on (i) the overdue and unpaid principal amount of each Loan, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this Section 2.07 and on the demand of the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Loan pursuant to clause (a)(i) or (a)(ii) of this Section 2.07, and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or any other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, from the date such amount was due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on demand of the Agent, at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on Base Rate Loans pursuant to clause (a)(i) of this Section 2.07.
SECTION 2.08.    Interest Rate Determination. (a) The Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined by the Agent for purposes of Section 2.07(a)(i) or (ii).
(a)    If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Required Revolving Credit Lenders or the Required Term Lenders, as applicable, notify the Agent that (i) they are unable to obtain matching deposits in the London interbank market at or about 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the second Business Day before the making of a Borrowing in sufficient amounts to fund their respective Loans as a part of such Borrowing during its Interest Period or (ii) the Eurocurrency Rate for any Interest Period for such Loans will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Loans for such Interest Period, the Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon (A) the Borrower will, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, either (x) prepay such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or (y) Convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans and (B) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
(b)    If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loans in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders and such Loans will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, continue as Eurocurrency Rate Loans with an Interest Period of one month.
(c)    [Reserved.]
(d)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 7.01, (i) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan will, upon request of the Required Lenders to the Agent, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, be Converted into Base Rate Loans and (ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make, or to Convert Loans into, Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall, if so requested by the Required Lenders, be suspended.
(e)    If no Screen Rate or Interpolated Screen Rate is available, then:
(ii)    the Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans;
(iii)    each such Eurocurrency Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan; and


64
[[3666665]]









(iv)    the obligation of the Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to Convert Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
SECTION 2.09.    Optional Conversion of Loans. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Agent not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.08 and 2.12, Convert all Loans of one Type comprising the same Borrowing into Loans of the other Type; provided, however, that any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans shall be made only on the last day of an Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans, any Conversion of Base Rate Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in an amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and no Conversion of any Loans shall result in more separate Borrowings than permitted under Section 2.02(b). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (i) the date of such Conversion, (ii) the Loans to be Converted, and (iii) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Loan. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.
SECTION 2.10.    Prepayments of Loans. (a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon notice at least three Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and not later than noon (New York City time) on the date of such prepayment, in the case of Base Rate Loans, to the Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall (subject to the last sentence of this Section 2.10(a)), prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment of Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than the Borrowing Minimum or a Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof and (y) in the event of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04 (if applicable). Any prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.10(a) may be made with respect to one or more Facilities as may be determined by the Borrower and shall not be required to be made ratably across the Facilities. Any prepayment with respect to the Term Facility shall be applied to the remaining amortization payments thereunder as directed by the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Borrower may state that any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.10(a) is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by written notice to the Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. 
(a)    Mandatory. (i) If, on any date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans plus (B) the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders on such date, the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within two Business Days after receipt of notice thereof from the Agent, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Credit Loans owing by the Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders on such date; provided that if the Borrower has Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.20(a), the Stated Amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been reduced by the amount of such Cash Collateral. The Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.10(b)(i) to the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders, and shall provide prompt notice to the Borrower of any such notice of required prepayment received by it from any Revolving Credit Lender.


65
[[3666665]]









(i)    Each prepayment of Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) shall be made together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid and, in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period or at its maturity, any additional amounts which the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse to the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 9.04. 
(ii)    No later than three Business Days after the date on which the financial statements with respect to each fiscal year are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.08(b) (commencing with the fiscal year of Holdings ending on or about December 31, 2017), the Borrower shall (subject to Section 2.10(b)(ix) below) prepay outstanding Term Loans and Spinco Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi) in an aggregate principal amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the Excess Cash Flow Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year then ended minus (B) any optional prepayments of Term Loans and any optional prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans (but solely to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments) pursuant to Section 2.10(a) and Spinco Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) (or any comparable successor provision) of the Spinco Credit Agreement, in each case made during such fiscal year, or in the immediately following fiscal year but before the making of any prepayment required in respect of such fiscal year pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(iii), but in each case only to the extent that (i) such prepayments do not occur in connection with a refinancing of all or any portion of such Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans or Spinco Loans and (ii) such prepayment was not previously applied to reduce the amount of any prepayment required by this Section 2.10(b)(iii) in respect of a prior fiscal year. 
(iii)    In the event that Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of (A) any Indebtedness for borrowed money of Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any cash proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness for borrowed money permitted under each of this Agreement and the Spinco Credit Agreement), the Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the third Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by Holdings or any such Restricted Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Term Loans and Spinco Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi) or (B) any Refinancing Notes, any Specified Refinancing Term Loans, any Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans or any Refinancing Junior Loans, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Class of Term Loans and/or Revolving Credit Loans refinanced in such issuance or incurrence by an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds immediately upon receipt thereof by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary.
(iv)    Not later than the third Business Day following the receipt of Net Cash Proceeds in respect of any Asset Sale, which proceeds are in excess of $7,500,000 in a single transaction or series of related transactions, the Borrower shall (subject to Section 2.10(b)(ix) below) apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto (the “Subject Proceeds”) to prepay outstanding Term Loans and Spinco Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi) (collectively, the “Subject Loans”), and if, at the time that any such prepayment would be required hereunder, the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries is required (pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such other Indebtedness) to repay or repurchase any other Indebtedness (or offer to repay or repurchase such Indebtedness) that is secured pursuant to an intercreditor agreement on a pari passu basis with the Loan Document Obligations with the Subject Proceeds (such Indebtedness required to be so repaid or repurchased (or offered to be repaid or repurchased), the “Other Applicable Indebtedness”), then the relevant Person may apply the Subject Proceeds on a pro rata basis to the prepayment of the Subject Loans and to the repurchase or repayment of the Other Applicable Indebtedness (determined on the basis of the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Subject Loans and the Other Applicable Indebtedness (or accreted amount if such Other Applicable Indebtedness is issued 


66
[[3666665]]









with original issue discount) at such time; it being understood that (1) subject to the foregoing, the portion of the Subject Proceeds allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness shall not exceed the amount of the Subject Proceeds required to be allocated to the Other Applicable Indebtedness pursuant to the terms thereof, and the remaining amount, if any, of the Subject Proceeds shall be allocated to the Subject Loans in accordance with the terms hereof), and the amount of the prepayment of the Subject Loans that would have otherwise been required pursuant to this Section 2.10(b)(v) shall be reduced accordingly and (2) to the extent the holders of the Other Applicable Indebtedness decline to have such Indebtedness prepaid or repurchased, the declined amount shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days after the date of such rejection) be applied to prepay the Subject Loans in accordance with the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments otherwise required to be made pursuant to the above provisions of this clause (v) shall not be required to be made in respect of the first $100,000,000 of Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower in respect of Asset Sales after the Closing Date; provided that this sentence shall not apply with respect to any Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower in respect an Asset Sale if all or any portion thereof are applied to prepay or repurchase any Spinco Loans and/or any Other Applicable Indebtedness.
(v)    Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Section 2.10(b) (other than Section 2.10(b)(iv)(B)) shall be (A) allocated as among the Term Loans and Spinco Loans, pro rata, based upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans and Spinco Loans, and (B) in the case of Term Loans, shall be applied pro rata to the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans under Section 2.06(c).
(vi)    The Borrower shall deliver to the Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under Sections 2.10(b)(iii), (iv) and (v) above, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of Holdings setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment (the “Prepayment Amount”) and (ii) at least three Business Days’ prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date (the “Prepayment Date”), the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. The Agent shall promptly advise the Appropriate Lenders of any notice given (and the contents thereof) pursuant to this Section 2.10(b). 
(vii)    With respect to any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii) or (v) the Borrower may elect, at its option, to allow the Term Lenders to decline to accept the applicable prepayment. In addition to the notice requirements in Section 2.10(b)(vii), each such notice of any event giving rise to a prepayment under Section 2.10(b)(iii) or (v) shall also specify whether or not the Borrower has elected to give the Term Lenders the option to decline such prepayment. If the Borrower has elected to allow the Term Lenders to decline to accept such prepayment, any Appropriate Lender may decline to accept all (but not less than all) of its share of any such prepayment (any such Lender, a “Declining Lender”) by providing written notice to the Agent no later than one Business Day after the date of such Appropriate Lender’s receipt of notice from the Agent regarding such prepayment. If any Appropriate Lender does not give a notice to the Agent on or prior to such date informing the Agent that it declines to accept the applicable prepayment, then such Lender will be deemed to have accepted such prepayment. On any Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Prepayment Amount minus the portion thereof allocable to Declining Lenders, in each case for such Prepayment Date, shall be paid to the Agent by the Borrower and applied by the Agent in accordance with Section 2.10(b)(vi) (other than Term Loans owing to Declining Lenders). Any amounts that would otherwise have been applied to prepay Term Loans owing to Declining Lenders shall be retained by the Borrower (such amounts, “Declined Leidos Amounts” and together with any Declined Spinco Amounts (as defined in the Spinco Credit Agreement), “Declined Amounts”).
(viii)    Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.10(b), to the extent that any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Disposition”) gives 


67
[[3666665]]









rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(v), or Excess Cash Flow giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(iii) (solely to the extent related to Excess Cash Flow generated by Foreign Subsidiaries), are or is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, (A) the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to prepay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.10(b) but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit repatriation to the United States (and Holdings and the Borrower hereby agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than two Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) to the extent provided herein and (B) to the extent that Holdings and the Borrower have determined in good faith (and after use of commercially reasonable efforts to mitigate any such material adverse tax cost consequences) that repatriation of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Disposition, or Excess Cash Flow (solely to the extent related to Excess Cash Flow generated by Foreign Subsidiaries) would have a material adverse tax cost consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (B), on or before the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.10(b), (x) the Borrowers shall apply an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the Borrower rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow are applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary.
SECTION 2.11.    Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:
(ii)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate);
(iii)    subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or
(iv)    impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or 


68
[[3666665]]









amounts as will compensate such Lender or other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered. 
(b)    Capital Adequacy. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s Parent Company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s Parent Company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s Parent Company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s Parent Company for any such reduction suffered.
(c)    Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its Parent Company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.11 and delivered to the Borrower, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.11 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
SECTION 2.12.    Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender under any Facility shall notify the Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans, (a) each Eurocurrency Rate Loan will automatically, upon such demand, be Converted into a Base Rate Loan and (b) the obligation of the Appropriate Lenders to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to Convert Loans into Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Appropriate Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
SECTION 2.13.    Payments and Computations. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off, not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars (or, in the case of reimbursement of a draft drawn under a Letter of Credit, in accordance with and in the currency required under Section 2.03(c)) to the Agent at the applicable Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest, fees or commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.04(b)(ii), 2.04(c), 2.11, 2.14 or 9.04) to the applicable Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 9.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the Agent shall make all payments hereunder 


69
[[3666665]]









and under the Notes in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.
(a)    [Reserved.]
(b)    All computations of interest based on Citibank’s base rate shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Eurocurrency Rate, the Federal Funds Rate or One Month LIBOR and of fees and Letter of Credit fees shall be made by the Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, fees or commissions are payable. Each determination by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c)    Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Notes shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, fee or commission, as the case may be; provided, however, that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.
(d)    Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Agent on such date and the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each applicable Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Agent, each applicable Lender shall repay to the Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.
SECTION 2.14.    Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(a)    Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(b)    Indemnification by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.14) payable 


70
[[3666665]]









or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount being requested, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(c)    Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.07(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Agent under this paragraph (d).
(d)    Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.14, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(e)    Status of Recipients. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation by any Lender (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.14(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(i)    Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A)    any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;


71
[[3666665]]









(B)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(i)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W‐8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(ii)    executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(iii)    in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(iv)    to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 or Exhibit D-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner;
(C)    any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)    if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply 


72
[[3666665]]









with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
The Agent and each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(f)    Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.14 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.14), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.14 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(g)    Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.14 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
(h)    Interpretation. For purposes of this Section 2.14, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
SECTION 2.15.    Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations 


73
[[3666665]]









of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them; provided that:
(ii)    if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
(iii)    the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply).
Each of Holdings and the Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against Holdings and the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of Holdings and the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 2.16.    Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Loans. The Borrower agrees that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or otherwise) the Loans owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to such Lender (or its registered assigns) in a principal amount up to (x) in the case of a Term Note, the sum of the then-applicable Commitment of such Lender and the applicable Loans owing to such Lender and (y) in the case of a Revolving Credit Note, the applicable Commitment of such Lender.
(a)    The Register maintained by the Agent pursuant to Section 9.07(c) shall include a control account, and a subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of Loans comprising such Borrowing and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.
(b)    Entries made in good faith by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to section (a) above shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to such Lender under this Agreement, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement; and provided, further, that in the event of any conflict between the Register and the Lender’s account or accounts, the Register shall govern.
SECTION 2.17.    Use of Proceeds.


74
[[3666665]]









(a)    Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to Section 5.09, the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely for working capital and general corporate purposes of Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $50,000,000 may be used to finance the Transactions.
(b)    Subject to Section 5.09, the proceeds of the Term Loans made on the Closing Date shall be available (and the Borrower agrees that it shall use such proceeds) solely to finance the Transactions. 
SECTION 2.18.    Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a)    Designation of a Different Lending Office. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) use reasonable efforts to designate a different Applicable Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.14, as the case may be, in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b)    Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.14 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Applicable Lending Office in accordance with Section 2.18(a), or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Approving Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 9.07), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.11 or Section 2.14) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that:
(i)    the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent the assignment fee (if any) specified in Section 9.07;
(ii)    such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Letters of Credit (if any), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 9.04(f)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);
(iii)    in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.14, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;
(iv)    such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and


75
[[3666665]]









(v)    in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Approving Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.
(c)    A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
SECTION 2.19.    Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, within two Business Days following the written request of the Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to any reallocation pursuant to Section 2.20(a) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
(a)    Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent and the Issuing Banks as herein provided or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Agent, pay or provide to the Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b)    Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.19 or Section 2.20 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c)    Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.20, the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
SECTION 2.20.    Defaulting Lenders.
(a)    Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(ii)    Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.


76
[[3666665]]









(iii)    Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise) or received by the Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.05 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.19; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.19; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations are held by the applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iv)    Certain Fees. (A) No Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be entitled to receive a commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.04(a) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender.
(A)    Each Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Ratable Share of the Stated Amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.19.
(B)    With respect to any commitment fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been 


77
[[3666665]]









reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
(v)    Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of a Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares under the Revolving Credit Facility (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 9.19, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(vi)    Cash Collateral. If and for so long as the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.19.
(b)    Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Agent and each Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders under the applicable Facility or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans under the applicable Facility and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Appropriate Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c)    New Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to Issue or increase any Letter of Credit unless (i) it is satisfied that the related Fronting Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders (including by allocating participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit among Non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.20(a)(iv) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein)) or (ii) Cash Collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.19.


78
[[3666665]]









SECTION 2.21.    Specified Refinancing Debt. 
(a)    The Borrower may, from time to time, add one or more new term loan facilities and new revolving credit facilities to the Agreement (“Specified Refinancing Debt”) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, to refinance (i) all or any portion of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement and (ii) all or any portion of any Class of Revolving Credit Loans (and the unused Revolving Credit Commitments with respect to such Class of Revolving Credit Loans) then in effect under this Agreement, in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment (it being agreed that in no event shall more than two Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments be outstanding at any time under this Agreement); provided that such Specified Refinancing Debt: (i) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the other Obligations and Commitments hereunder; (ii) will not have obligors or contingent obligors that were not obligors or contingent obligors in respect of the Facilities; (iii) will be (x) unsecured or (y) other than during a Lien Suspension Period, secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Obligations (or on a junior lien basis pursuant to a Market Intercreditor Agreement that is reasonably satisfactory to the Agent);

(v)(x) to the extent constituting revolving credit facilities, will not have a maturity date (or have mandatory commitment reductions or amortization) that is prior to the Revolving Credit Facility Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitment being refinanced and (y) to the extent constituting Term Facilities, will have a maturity date that is not prior to the date that is the scheduled maturity date of, and will have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of, the Loans being refinanced;

(vii) each Revolving Credit Borrowing (including any deemed Revolving Credit Borrowings made pursuant to Section 2.03) shall be allocated pro rata among the Classes of Revolving Credit Commitments (it being agreed that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, take such actions as it deems advisable to allocate Letters of Credit and participations therein between any revolving credit facilities); (viii) subject to clauses (iv), (v) and (vi) above, will have terms and conditions (other than pricing and optional prepayment and optional redemption terms) that are either (x) substantially similar to, or (when taken as a whole) no more favorable to the lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt than, those applicable to the Loans or Commitments being refinanced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date) or (y) customary for similar types of Indebtedness in light of then-prevailing market conditions; provided that a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower delivered to the Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Specified Refinancing Debt, together with a reasonably detailed description of material terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Debt or drafts of the documentation related thereto, stating that the Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirement in this clause (viii) shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirements unless the Agent notifies the Borrower within such five (5) Business Day period that it disagrees with such determination (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it disagrees); and (ix) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Loans being so refinanced, in each case pursuant to Section 2.05 and 2.10, as applicable; provided, however, that such Specified Refinancing Debt (x) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed among the Borrower and the lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date of any of the Loans (and Commitments) that remain outstanding after giving effect to such Specified Refinancing Debt or the date on which all non-refinanced Obligations are paid in full and (y) shall not have a principal or commitment amount (or accreted value) greater than the Loans being refinanced (plus accrued interest,

fees (including original issue discount and upfront fees), discounts, premiums or expenses payable in connection therewith).
(b)    The Borrower shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a written notice to the Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. Any proposed Specified Refinancing Debt may be provided by existing Lenders (it being understood that existing Lenders have no obligation to provide such proposed Specified Refinancing Debt) or, subject to the approval of the Agent and, with respect to Revolving Credit Commitments, the Issuing Banks (in each case, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), Eligible Assignees in such respective amounts as the Borrower may elect.
(c)    The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in clause (a) above and Section 3.02, and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements, including any supplements or amendments to the Security and Guarantee Documents providing for such Specified Refinancing Debt to be secured thereby (if permitted), consistent, where applicable, with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 3.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a Change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Agent). The Lenders hereby authorize the Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to establish any Specified Refinancing Debt and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such Specified Refinancing Debt, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions of this Section 2.21. 
(d)    Each Class of Specified Refinancing Debt incurred under this Section 2.21 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 and in $1,000,000 increments in excess thereof. 
The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Specified Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Debt as separate facilities hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Facilities being refinanced, including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of or be consistent with this Section 2.21. In addition, in the case of Specified Refinancing Debt in the form of a new revolving credit facility, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participation in Letters of Credit shall be reallocated from Lenders holding the Revolving Credit Commitments being refinanced to Lenders that will hold such Specified Refinancing Debt in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon the effectiveness of the Revolving Credit Commitments under such Specified Refinancing Debt, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and held by the Lenders thereunder and the terms of such participation interests (including the fees applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders under the applicable Existing Revolver Tranche) (each, a “Revolver Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established, which shall (x) be identical as offered to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Lender under such Existing Revolver Tranche and (y) be identical in all material respects to the Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche from which such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are to be amended, except that: (i) the maturity date of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to a later date than the maturity date of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii)(A) the interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees and funding discounts with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those for the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolver Tranche and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in addition to any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A), in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; (ii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date of the Revolving Credit Commitments that is in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and (iii) all borrowings under the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments (i.e., the Existing Revolver Tranche and the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Revolver Extension Series) and repayments thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments); provided, that (A) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Revolver Extension Series at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the maturity date of the Existing Revolver Tranche from which such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments are to be amended and (B) all documentation in respect of such Extension Amendment shall be consistent with the foregoing. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended pursuant to any Revolver Extension Request shall be designated a series (each, a “Revolver Extension Series”) of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments amended from an Existing Revolver Tranche may, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment, be designated as an increase in any previously established Revolver Extension Series with respect to such Existing Revolver Tranche. Each Revolver Extension Series of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments incurred under this Section 2.22 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000.
(c)    Extension Request. The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five (5) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Agent may determine in its sole discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.22. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Term Loans of any Existing Term Loan Tranche amended into Extended Term Loans or any of its Revolving Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Lender holding a Loan under an Existing Term Loan Tranche (each, an “Extending Term Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Term Loans and any Revolving Credit Lender (each, an “Extending Revolving Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche subject to such Extension Request amended into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, shall notify the Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension 


82
[[3666665]]









Request of the amount of its Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, which it has elected to request be amended into Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans under the Existing Term Loan Tranche or Revolving Credit Commitments under the Existing Revolver Tranche, as applicable, in respect of which applicable Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, requested to be extended pursuant to the Extension Request, Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, included in each such Extension Election.
(d)    Extension Amendment. Extended Term Loans and Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (each, a “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement among the Borrower, the Agent and each Extending Term Lender or Extending Revolving Lender, as applicable, providing an Extended Term Loan or Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, thereunder, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth in this Section 2.22 (but which shall not require the applicable consent of any other Lender). The effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth above and in Section 3.02, and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Agent, receipt by the Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements, substantially consistent, where applicable, with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 3.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a Change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Agent). The Lenders hereby authorize the Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower as may be necessary in order to effect any Extension Amendment and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such Extension Amendment, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Extension Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participation in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the scheduled maturity date in respect of a Class of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be reallocated from Lenders holding such Revolving Credit Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Extension Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such extended Revolving Credit Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly. No amendment, conversion or exchange of Loans pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.22 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.
SECTION 2.23.    Incremental Facilities. 
(a)    The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent from time to time, request Incremental Commitments in an amount for all such Incremental Commitments not to exceed the Incremental Facility Amount at such time from one or more Incremental Lenders, which may include any existing Lender or any Eligible Assignee (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion); provided that (i) any Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Incremental Revolving Credit Loans thereunder) shall be implemented as an increase to the total Revolving Credit Commitments and shall 


83
[[3666665]]









have identical terms as the Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Revolving Credit Loans thereunder) and (ii) each Incremental Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Agent (and, in the case of an Incremental Revolving Credit Lender, each Issuing Bank) (which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Such notice shall set forth (x) the amount of the Incremental Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $5,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or such lesser amount equal to the remaining Incremental Facility Amount, as applicable), (y) the date on which such Incremental Commitments are requested to become effective and (z) in the case of Incremental Term Commitments, whether such Incremental Term Commitments are (i) commitments to make additional Term Loans or (ii) commitments to make new A Type Term Loans (as defined below) with terms different from the Term Loans (such loans, “Specified Incremental Term Loans” and such commitments “Specified Incremental Term Commitments”).
(b)    The Borrower and each applicable Incremental Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Commitment of each Incremental Lender. Each Incremental Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of any Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder; provided that (1)(A)(i) the final maturity date of any Specified Incremental Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Term Loan Maturity Date and (ii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Specified Incremental Term Loans shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans; (B) if the initial yield on any such Specified Incremental Term Loans that is incurred on or prior to the date that is 12 months after the Closing Date (as such yield is determined by the Agent by adding (x) the margin above the Eurocurrency Rate on such Loans (which shall be increased by the amount that any interest rate “floor” applicable to such Loans on the date such Loans are made would exceed the Eurocurrency Rate for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) and (y) if such Loans are initially made at a discount or the Lenders making the same receive a fee directly or indirectly from Holdings or any of the Subsidiaries for doing so (but excluding the effect of any bona fide arrangement, structuring, syndication or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders thereof) (the amount of such discount or fee, expressed as a percentage of such Loans, being referred to herein as “OID”), the amount of such OID divided by the lesser of (x) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Loans and (y) four) exceeds by more than 50 basis points (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”) the sum of (x) the Applicable Margin then in effect for Eurocurrency Rate Term Loans, and (y) the amount of the OID initially paid in respect of the Term Loans, divided by four, then the Applicable Margin then in effect for Term Loans shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of such Specified Incremental Term Loans; and (C) during a Lien Suspension Period, no Incremental Term Loans shall be secured; and (2) the other terms of any Specified Incremental Term Loans shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. For purposes of this Section 2.23, “A Type Term Loans” means any term loans which (w) have scheduled amortization in excess of 1.00% per annum, (x) have a final maturity of five years or less, (y) other than during a Lien Suspension Period, are secured by some or all of the Collateral on an equal and ratable basis with the Obligations and Obligations (as defined in the Spinco Credit Agreement) and (z) are guaranteed by some or all of the Guarantors.
(c)    Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.23 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, (A)(1) the representations and warranties contained in Article IV are true and correct in all material respects (except for those representations and warranties that are qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which shall be true and correct in all respects) on and as of such date, as though made on and as of such date except where such representations and warranties expressly refers to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct on and as of such earlier date and (2) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed 


84
[[3666665]]









by a Financial Officer of Holdings); and (B) Holdings and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall be in compliance with the Financial Covenant after giving pro forma effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (assuming a full drawing thereof), as applicable, the making of Loans to be made on the date of effectiveness thereof, any Permitted Acquisition consummated simultaneously therewith, and the pro forma adjustments described in Section 1.07, (ii) all fees and expenses owing to the Agent and the Lenders in respect of such Incremental Term Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall have been paid in full, (iii) to the extent not consistent with this Agreement, the other terms and documentation in respect of the Incremental Term Loans shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent unless otherwise expressly permitted in this Section 2.23 and (iv) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, the Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date.
(d)    Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Loans (other than Specified Incremental Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished by, among other things, requiring each outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing to be Converted into a Base Rate Borrowing on the date of such Incremental Loan, or by allocating a portion of such Incremental Loan to each outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Borrowing under the relevant Facility on a pro rata basis. Any Conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 9.04(f). If any Incremental Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing, then the interest rate thereon for such Interest Period and the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.06(c), required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Incremental Term Commitments to make Specified Incremental Term Loans may not be requested without the prior written consent of the Agent if, as a result of the Specified Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder, there would be more than five classes of Term Loans and Specified Incremental Term Loans outstanding.
(e)    Notwithstanding any other provision of any Loan Document, each Loan Document may be modified, supplemented, amended and/or amended and restated by the Agent and the Borrower without the action or consent of any other party, if the Agent determines it to be necessary or advisable, to provide for terms applicable to any Incremental Loans permitted by or to otherwise give effect to this Section 2.23. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Commitments and the Incremental Loans evidenced thereby.

If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent may with the consent, or shall at the request, of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in Section 7.01 or otherwise, make demand upon the Borrower to, and forthwith upon such demand the Borrower will, (a) pay to the Agent on behalf of the Revolving Credit Lenders in same day funds at the Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, an amount equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding (but only to the extent such Stated Amount has not already been Cash Collateralized) or (b) make such other arrangements in respect of the outstanding Letters of Credit as shall be acceptable to the Required Revolving Credit Lenders and not more disadvantageous to the Borrower than clause (a); provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under any Debtor Relief Law, an amount equal to the aggregate Stated Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be immediately due and payable to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders without notice to or demand upon the Borrower, which are expressly waived by Holdings and the Borrower, to be held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account. If at any time an Event of Default is continuing the Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Agent and the Lenders or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate Stated Amount of all Letters of Credit, the Borrower will, forthwith upon demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, an amount equal to the excess of (i) such aggregate Stated Amount over (ii) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account that the Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit, to the extent funds are on deposit in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks to the extent permitted by applicable law. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such L/C Cash Deposit Account shall be applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 7.03.
SECTION 7.03.    Application of Funds. After the exercise of any remedies provided for in Section 7.01 or Section 7.02 (or after an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to Holdings, the Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law), any amounts received on account of the Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral, including Collateral consisting of cash) shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.19 and 2.20 and subject to any contrary provisions expressly set forth in the Leidos/Spinco Intercreditor Agreement, be applied by the Agent in the following order:
(a)    first, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Section 9.04) payable to the Agent in its capacity as such, including any costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in its capacity as such in connection with the collection, sale, foreclosure or realization or otherwise of Collateral in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any of the Obligations, the repayment of advances made by the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any 


124
[[3666665]]









Loan Party and any other costs or expenses incurred in connection with exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;
(b)    second, to payment in full of Unfunded Loans/Participations (the amounts so applied to be distributed between or among, as applicable, the Agent and the Issuing Banks pro rata in accordance with the amounts of Unfunded Loans/Participations owed to them on the date of any such distribution);
(c)    third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit fees) payable to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks (including fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel payable under Section 9.04) arising under the Loan Documents, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (c) held by them;
(d)    fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit fees and interest on the Loans, and interest on unreimbursed Letter of Credit drawings, ratably among the Lenders and the Issuing Banks in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (d) held by them;
(e)    fifth, subject to Section 7.04(a), (i) to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, unreimbursed Letter of Credit drawings and obligations of the Loan Parties then arising under Secured Hedging Obligations, Secured Cash Management Obligations, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations and Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations and (ii) to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit in the manner contemplated by Section 7.02 (ratably among the Lenders, the Issuing Banks, the Hedge Banks, the Cash Management Banks, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Providers and Secured Designated Indebtedness Holders or the Designated Representative thereof for the benefit of the Secured Designated Indebtedness Holders) in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause (e) held by them; provided upon the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the pro rata share of Cash Collateral attributable to such expired Letter of Credit shall be applied by the Agent in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in this Section 7.03 (for the avoidance of doubt, Obligations shall not include Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations and Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations during a Lien Suspension Period);
(f)    sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are then due and payable to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the other holders or beneficiaries thereof, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations then owing to all of them; and
(g)    last, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by law.
SECTION 7.04.    Specified Collateral. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan Documents to the contrary, payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations pursuant to Section 7.03(e) shall only be made with the applicable ratable share (as provided in Section 7.03(e)) of proceeds from any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Specified Collateral (and proceeds from any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any other Collateral shall not be applied to Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations).
(a)    In making the determinations and allocations required by Section 7.03(e), the Agent may conclusively rely upon information supplied by the Designated Representative as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts with respect to the Secured Designated Indebtedness 


125
[[3666665]]









Obligations, and the Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on such information. The Agent shall have no duty to inquire as to the application by the Designated Representative of any amounts distributed to it for distribution to the Secured Designated Indebtedness Holders. 
Section 7.01.    Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations upon Event of Default.  If, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, there are any Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations outstanding, then, during such period, the “obligations of the Loan Parties” arising thereunder shall, solely for purposes of Section 7.03(e) and without limiting the last parenthetical thereof, be deemed to be (a) the lesser of (i) the sum of (x) the aggregate Stated Amount (applied mutatis mutandis) of all letters of credit then outstanding under the Designated Additional Letter of Credit Facilities plus (y) such additional amounts as the agent or the issuing bank under each Designated Additional Letter of Credit Facility shall require for purposes of cash collateralizing the applicable Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations in accordance with the terms of the applicable Designated Additional Letter of Credit Facility and (ii) $200,000,000, minus, (b) in each case, the amount of any cash collateral in respect of such Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations held by any agent or issuing bank under any applicable Designated Additional Letter of Credit Facilities. After all such letters of credit (x) shall have expired or (y) shall have been fully drawn upon and no Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations (other than contingent obligations for which no claim has been asserted) shall remain outstanding, the Borrower shall cause the balance, if any, of any amounts deposited with the agent or issuing bank under the applicable Designated Additional Letter of Credit Facilities to be paid over to the Agent hereunder and forthwith applied in accordance with the priority of payments set forth in Section 7.03.
ARTICLE VIII     
 
THE AGENT
Section 8.01.    Authorization and Authority. (a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes Citibank to act on its behalf as the Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Except as expressly set forth in Section 8.06, the provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, and neither Holdings nor the Borrower shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
(a)    The Agent shall also act as the Secured Parties Collateral Agent and the Non-Notes Secured Parties Collateral Agent under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (including in each such Lender’s capacity as a potential Cash Management Bank and/or Hedge Bank) and Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Agent to act as the agent of such Lender or Issuing Bank for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Agent, as the Secured Parties Collateral Agent and the Non-Notes Secured Parties Collateral Agent, and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Agent pursuant to Section 8.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Security and Guarantee Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the 


126
[[3666665]]









direction of the Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VIII and of paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of Section 9.04 (as though such agent, co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the Agent under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, but without limiting the rights of any Lender, Issuing Bank or any of their respective Affiliates under Section 9.05, each Loan Party, the Agent and each Lender hereby agree that no Lender, in its capacity as such, shall have any right individually to realize upon any collateral subject to any Security and Guarantee Documents, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder or thereunder may be exercised solely by the Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, in accordance with the terms hereof or thereof, as applicable. 
Section 8.02.    Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and generally engage in any kind of business with, any member of the Consolidated Group or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
Section 8.03.    Duties of Agent; Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:
(ii)    shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
(iii)    shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided that the Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iv)    shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b)    The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 9.01 and 7.01), or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given to the Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.


127
[[3666665]]









(c)    The Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.
Section 8.04.    Reliance by Agent. The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the Closing Date, the making of a Loan or the Issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the occurrence of the Closing Date, the making of such Loan or such Issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
Section 8.05.    Delegation of Duties. The Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Facilities as well as activities as Agent. The Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.
Section 8.06.    Resignation of Agent. (a) The Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(a)    If the Person serving as Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (vi) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, 


128
[[3666665]]









appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”) then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
(b)    With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable), (i) the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Agent on behalf of the Lenders hereunder, the retiring or removed Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring or removed Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring or removed Agent), and the retiring or removed Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The annual administrative fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring or removed Agent was acting as Agent.
(c)    Any resignation pursuant to this Section 8.06 by a Person also acting as an Issuing Bank shall, unless such Person shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders otherwise, also act to relieve such Person and its Affiliates of any obligation to advance or issue new, or extend existing, Letters of Credit where such advance, issuance or extension is to occur on or after the effective date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank, (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.
Section 8.07.    Non-Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Section 8.08.    No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, Arrangers, Co-Syndication Agents or the Documentation Agent listed on the cover page hereof shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Agent or a Lender or Issuing Bank hereunder.


129
[[3666665]]









Section 8.09.    Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(a)    to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Agent under Sections 2.04 and 9.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b)    to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Agent and, in the event that the Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agent and its respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Agent under Sections 2.04 and 9.04.
Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.
Section 8.10.    Collateral and Guaranty Matters; Lien Release Event. (a) Each of the Lenders (including in each such Lender’s capacity as a potential Cash Management Bank, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Provider or Hedge Bank)  and each Issuing Bank, irrevocably authorize the Agent, and the Designated Representative on behalf of the Secured Designated Indebtedness Holder is deemed to irrevocably authorize the Agent (x) to enter into the Security and Guarantee Documents (including the Leidos/Spinco Intercreditor Agreement) for the benefit of such Persons and (y), at its option and in its discretion:
(ii)    to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Agent under any Loan Document (v) upon termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Loan Document Obligations (other than contingent indemnification and expense obligations as to which no claim or demand has been asserted), and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than Letters of Credit which have been Cash Collateralized), (w) that is sold or distributed or to be sold or distributed as part of or in connection with any sale permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (x) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (unless approval by a greater number or percentage of Lenders is expressly provided in any Loan Document), (y) to the extent required pursuant to the terms of the Leidos/Spinco Intercreditor Agreement or (z) as contemplated by Section 8.10(b);
(iii)    to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 6.01(b) and (d); and


130
[[3666665]]









(iv)    to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Security and Guarantee Documents if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted hereunder.
Upon request by the Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Security and Guarantee Documents pursuant to this Section 8.10(a). In each case as specified in this Section 8.10(a), the Agent will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Security and Guarantee Documents, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Security and Guarantee Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 8.10(a); provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of Holdings certifying that any such transaction has been consummated in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, in the case of a release upon a Lien Release Event, that the requirements contemplated by the definition of “Lien Release Event” have been satisfied).
(b)    Upon the occurrence of a Lien Release Event, at the Borrower’s option, all pledges, liens and security interests on the Collateral created by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and any other Security and Guarantee Document shall be released, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the applicable Loan Parties; provided that no such Lien release and reversion of rights shall be effective to the extent that any Lien securing Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations, Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations or Incremental Equivalent Debt is not simultaneously released. During a Lien Suspension Period: 
(ii)    any provision set forth herein or in any other Loan Document referring to the Collateral Agent or actions required in connection with Collateral (including delivery of opinions with respect thereto) shall be disregarded, as the context requires;
(iii)    any provision set forth herein or in any other Loan Document referring to the Leidos/Spinco Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor agreement shall be disregarded, as the context requires; 
(iv)    the provisions of Articles III, IV and V of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be disregarded; and
(v)    Section 4.18 shall be deemed to be replaced with the text “[reserved]” for all purposes hereunder. 
For the avoidance of doubt, during a Lien Suspension Period, the Obligations will continue to benefit from the guarantees of the Guarantors as set forth in the Security and Guarantee Documents.
Section 8.11.    Cash Management Banks, Hedge Banks, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Providers and Secured Designated Indebtedness Holders. No Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Providers, Secured Designated Indebtedness Holder or Designated Representative that obtains the benefits of any guarantee or any collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any Security and Guarantee Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of any collateral (including the release or impairment of any collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding 


131
[[3666665]]









any other provision of this Article VIII to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, any Secured Cash Management Obligations, Secured Hedging Obligations, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Obligations or Secured Designated Indebtedness Obligations unless the Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank, Hedge Bank, Secured Additional Letter of Credit Facility Providers and Secured Designated Indebtedness Holder or Designated Representative thereof, as applicable.
ARTICLE IX     
 
MISCELLANEOUS

(a) Without limiting Section 8.10 and except as otherwise provided below in this Section 9.01, no amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or the Notes, or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all the Lenders, do any of the following: (u) change or waive any of the requirements contemplated by the definition of “Lien Release Event”, (w) waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.01, (x) change the percentage of the Commitments or of the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans, or the number of Lenders, that shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, (y) release all or substantially all of the value of the Collateral or of the guarantees of the Guarantors (in each case except as otherwise permitted by the Loan Documents),or (z) amend this Section 9.01 as it relates to amendments, waivers or consents requiring the consent of all Lenders; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by each Lender directly affected thereby (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Required Lenders, except in the case of clause (u) below in connection with Commitment increases that are not expressly permitted hereunder without the approval of the Required Lenders), do any of the following: (u) increase the Commitments of such Lender or non-pro rata reductions in the Commitments of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent in Section 3.02 or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment shall not be an increase of a Commitment of any Lender), (v) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.07(b) or a waiver thereof) or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender, (w) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Loans (other than interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.07(b) or a waiver thereof) or any fees or other amounts payable to such Lender hereunder, (x) change Section 9.07 in a manner that would impose additional restrictions on such Lender’s ability to assign or otherwise transfer its rights and obligations hereunder, (y) change Section 2.15 or Section 7.03  in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or proceeds, as applicable, required thereby or (z) amend this Section 9.01 as it relates to amendments, waivers or consents requiring the consent of such Lender; (iii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Required Revolving Credit Lenders, waive any of the conditions specified in Section 3.02; and (iv) no amendment, waiver or consent shall change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms adversely affects Lenders holding Loans of one Class in respect of the rights to payments or security interest in Collateral, in each case, in a manner different than such amendment, waiver or consent affects the rights of any other Class in respect of rights to payments or security interests in Collateral without, in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each Class so adversely affected; and provided, further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and

137
[[3666665]]









(or any such sub-agent) or such Issuing Bank in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the provisions of Section 2.02(e).
(c)    Waiver of Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto shall assert, and each party hereto hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit, or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit the indemnity and reimbursement obligations of Holdings and the Borrower for such damages awarded to third parties to the extent set forth in paragraphs (a) and (b) above. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Platform) in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, except to the extent of damages caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any Indemnitee hereunder, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
(d)    Payments. All amounts due under this Section 9.04 shall be payable not later than five Business Days after demand therefor.
(e)    Breakage. If any payment of principal of, or Conversion of, any Eurocurrency Rate Loan is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender (i) other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, as a result of a prepayment or payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.10 or 2.12, acceleration of the maturity pursuant to Section 7.01 or for any other reason, or by an Eligible Assignee to a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan upon an assignment of rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.07 as a result of a demand by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or (ii) as a result of a prepayment or payment or Conversion pursuant to Section 2.08, 2.10 or 2.12, the Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or Conversion, including any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.
(f)    Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Holdings or the Borrower hereunder, the agreements and obligations of Holdings and the Borrower contained in Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.
Section 9.05.    Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final, in whatever currency) at any time held, and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing, by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of Holdings or the Borrower against any and all of the obligations of Holdings or the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to such Lender or such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not 


138
[[3666665]]









such Lender, Issuing Bank or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of Holdings or the Borrower may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of such Lender or such Issuing Bank different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Loans owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. The rights of each Lender, each Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) that such Lender, such Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower and the Agent promptly after any such set-off and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section 9.06.    Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective on and as of the Closing Date and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Holdings, the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Banks and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Agent and the Lenders (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).
Section 9.07.    Assignments and Participations. (a) Successors and Assigns Generally.

Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section 9.07 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(a)    Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans (in each case with respect to any Facility) at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:
(ii)    Minimum Amounts.
(A)    in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and/or the Loans at the time owing to it (in each case with respect to any Facility) or contemporaneous assignments to related Approved Funds that equal at least the amount specified in paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 9.07 in the aggregate or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and
(B)    in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section 9.07, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding 


139
[[3666665]]









thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Assumption, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than $2,500,000, in the case of any assignment in respect the Revolving Credit Facility, or $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of any other Facilities, unless each of the Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower, otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
(iii)    Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.
(iv)    Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section 9.07 and, in addition:
(A)    the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that if consent of the Borrower is required, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Agent within ten Business Days after having received written notice thereof; 
(B)    the consent of the Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for assignments in respect of (i) the Revolving Credit Facility and (ii) any Term Loans if such assignment is to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and
(C)    the consent of each Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.
(v)    Assignment and Assumption. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
(vi)    No Assignment to Certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) Holdings or any Affiliate of Holdings, (B) any Defaulting Lender, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B) or (C) a natural Person.
(vii)    Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall 


140
[[3666665]]









make such additional payments to the Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent, each Issuing Bank and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Ratable Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 9.07, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.14 and 9.04 and remain liable under Section 9.04(e) with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section 9.07.
(b)    Register. The Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(c)    Participations. Any Lender may, at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, any Issuing Bank or the Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or Holdings, the Borrower or any of Holdings’ or the Borrower’s Affiliates or subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Banks and Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (i) or (ii) of the first proviso to Section 9.01(a) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 9.04(f) and 2.14 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.14(f) (it being understood and agreed that the documentation required under Section 2.14(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.07; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section 9.07; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.11 or 2.14, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.18 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.05 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.15 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Agent (in its capacity as Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(d)    Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
Section 9.08.    Confidentiality. Each of the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agree to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood and agreed that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; provided that such Person shall, to the extent permitted by law, use its commercially reasonable efforts to promptly inform the Borrower of such disclosure and to ensure that such Information is accorded confidential treatment; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action 


142

For purposes of this Section 9.08, “Information” means all information received from Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries relating to Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by Holdings or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.08 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
Section 9.09.    Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any claims, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except, as to any other Loan Document, as expressly set forth therein) and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Agent could purchase Dollars with such other currency at Citibank’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(a)    The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the “Primary Currency”) to any Lender or the Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency; if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, 


143
[[3666665]]









the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Agent (as the case may be) agrees to remit to the Borrower such excess.
Section 9.12.    Jurisdiction, Etc. (a) Jurisdiction. Each of Holdings and the Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Agent, any Lender, any Issuing Bank, or any Related Party of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such federal court. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against Holdings, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(a)    Waiver of Venue. Each of Holdings and the Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section 9.12. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

In furtherance and 


144
[[3666665]]









not in limitation of the foregoing, such Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary; provided that nothing herein shall be deemed to excuse such Issuing Bank if it acts with bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment) in accepting such documents.

Section 9.15.    Other Relationships; No Fiduciary Duty. No relationship created hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall in any way affect the ability of the Agent and each Lender to enter into or maintain business relationships with Holdings, the Borrower or any Affiliate thereof beyond the relationships specifically contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each of Holdings and the Borrower agrees that in connection with all aspects of the transactions contemplated hereby and any communications in connection therewith, Holdings, the Borrower, their respective subsidiaries and their respective Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Agent, the Lenders and their respective Affiliates, on the other hand, will have a business relationship that does not create, by implication or otherwise, any advisory, equitable or fiduciary duties on the part of the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates, and no such duties will be deemed to have arisen in connection with any such transactions or communications. Each of Holdings and the Borrower also hereby agrees that none of the Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates have advised and are advising Holdings, the Borrower or any of their respective subsidiaries or Affiliates as to any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax matters, and that each of Holdings and the Borrower is consulting its own advisors concerning such matters to the extent it deems appropriate.

Section 9.17.    Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”).

145
[[3666665]]









applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Loan Document Obligations hereunder.
