Within such limits of time and amount and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow pursuant to this Section 2.1.


42





2.8.2Right to Increase Commitments.
So long as there is not continuing any Event of Default or Potential Default, then if the Borrowers wish to increase the Revolving Credit Commitments and/or the Term Loan Commitments, TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof; provided that any such increase shall be a one-time increase and in the aggregate shall be in a minimum of $10,000,000 and a maximum of $350,000,000; provided further that, with respect to any increase to the Revolving Credit Commitments occurring within six (6) months following the Ninth Amendment Effective Date, immediately prior to such increase, the Borrowers must first exercise their right pursuant to Section 5.4.3 to reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments in an amount equal to such increase.  Any portion of such requested increase shall be available to any additional bank (for purposes of this section, an “Additional Bank”) proposed by TGI, which is approved by the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and which becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.11.  In the event of any such increase in the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and/or Term Loan Commitments, as the case may be, effected pursuant to the terms of this subsection 2.1.2, new Notes shall, to the extent necessary, be executed and delivered by the Borrowers in exchange for the surrender of the existing Notes.  If Revolving Credit Loans would be outstanding immediately after giving effect to any such increase, then simultaneously with such increase (i) each Bank increasing its Revolving Credit Commitments (for purposes of this section, an “Increasing Bank”), each Additional Bank and each other Bank shall be deemed to have entered into a master Assignment and Assumption Agreement, in form and substance substantially similar to Exhibit 1.1(A), pursuant to which each such other Bank shall have assigned to each such Increasing Bank and each such Additional Bank, a portion of its Revolving Credit Loans necessary to reflect proportionately the Revolving Credit Commitments as adjusted in accordance with this Section 2.1.2, and (ii) in connection with such assignment, each such Increasing Bank and each such Additional Bank shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each such other Bank, such amount as shall be necessary to reflect the assignment to it of Revolving Credit Loans, and in connection with such master assignment each such other Bank may treat the assignment of Revolving Credit Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option as a prepayment thereof for purposes of Section 5.5.2.  In the event that such transactions result in an increase of the Term Loans outstanding (a) such increase shall be funded at the closing of the transaction described in this section, and (b) as of such closing, the parties shall amend the repayment schedule set forth in Section 3.2, as agreed to by the Agent, the Borrowers and the Banks holding not less than 51% of the Term Loan Commitments after giving effect to such increase.
2.2Nature of Banks’ Obligations with Respect to Revolving Credit Loans.
Each Bank shall be obligated to participate in each request for Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to Section 2.4 in accordance with its Ratable Share.  The aggregate amount of each Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans outstanding hereunder to the Borrowers at any time shall never exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment minus its Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letter of Credit Outstandings and the Dollar Equivalent of outstanding Swing Loans, subject to Section 5.6.1.  The obligations of each Bank hereunder are several.  The failure of any 


43





Bank to perform its obligations hereunder shall not affect the Obligations of the Borrowers to any other party nor the several obligations of the other Banks to the Borrowers; nor shall any other party be liable for the failure of such Bank to perform its obligations hereunder.  The Banks shall have no obligation to make Revolving Credit Loans hereunder on or after the Expiration Date.
2.3Commitment Fees.
Accruing from the Closing Date until the Expiration Date, the Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of each Bank according to its Ratable Share, as consideration for such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment hereunder, a nonrefundable commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”), calculated on a per annum (365 or 366 days, as appropriate, and actual days elapsed) basis under the Pricing Grid, on the average daily difference between the amount of (i) the Revolving Credit Commitments as the same may be constituted from time to time and (ii) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage; provided, however, that the portion of the Commitment Fee accrued with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Bank during the period prior to the time such Bank became a Defaulting Bank and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrowers so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank except to the extent that such Commitment Fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrowers prior to such time; and provided further that no Commitment Fee shall accrue on the Revolving Credit Commitment of a Defaulting Bank so long as such Bank is a Defaulting Bank.  All Commitment Fees shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each October, January, April and July for the immediately preceding quarter and on the Expiration Date or upon acceleration of the Notes.  For purposes of this computation, PNC Bank’s outstanding Swing Loans shall be deemed to be borrowed amounts under its Revolving Credit Commitment (and no other Bank’s).
2.4Revolving Credit Loan Requests.
Except as otherwise provided herein, TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers may from time to time prior to the Expiration Date request the Banks to make Revolving Credit Loans, or renew or convert the Interest Rate Option applicable to existing Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans pursuant to Section 4.3, by delivering to the Administrative Agent, not later than (i) 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of Revolving Credit Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies or the date of conversion to or the renewal of the Euro-Rate Option for any such Loans; and (ii) 10:30 a.m., Pittsburgh time on either the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to the making of a Revolving Credit Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies or the last day of the preceding Interest Period with respect to the conversion to the Base Rate Option for any Loan to which the Euro-Rate Option applies, of a duly completed request therefor substantially in the form of Exhibit 2.4 or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing by letter, or facsimile in such form (each, a “Loan Request”), it being understood that the Administrative Agent may rely on the authority of any individual making such a telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation.  Each Loan Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the proposed Borrowing Date; (ii) the aggregate amount of the proposed Loans comprising each Borrowing Tranche, the amount of which shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $2,000,000 for each Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies and not less than the lesser of $200,000 or the maximum amount available for Borrowing Tranches to 


44





which the Base Rate Option applies; (iii) whether the Euro-Rate Option or Base Rate Option shall apply to the proposed Loans comprising the Borrowing Tranche; and (iv) in the case of a Borrowing Tranche to which the Euro-Rate Option applies, an appropriate Interest Period for the proposed Loans comprising such Borrowing Tranche.  If TGI (i) fails to specify an interest rate option to be applicable to a Borrowing Tranche of Loans, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested the Base Rate Option with respect to such Borrowing Tranche, or (ii) elects the Euro-Rate option but fails to specify an Interest Period to apply to the applicable Loans, such Interest Period shall be one (1) month.

2.8Letter of Credit Subfacility.
2.8.1Issuance of Letters of Credit.
TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, may request the issuance of a letter of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) which may be denominated in either Dollars or an Optional Currency for itself or on behalf of another Loan Party or a non-Loan Party Subsidiary by delivering or having such other Loan Party deliver to the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) a completed application and agreement for letters of credit in such form as the Issuing Bank may specify from time to time by no later than 10:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, at least five (5) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Issuing Bank, in advance of the 


45





proposed date of issuance.  Promptly after receipt of any letter of credit application, the Issuing Bank shall confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit application and if not, such Issuing Bank will provide Administrative Agent with a copy thereof.  All letters of credit which are identified on Schedule 2.8.1 hereto shall be deemed to have been issued under this Agreement.  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and in reliance on the agreements of the other Banks set forth in this Section 2.8, the Administrative Agent will issue a Letter of Credit provided that each Letter of Credit shall (A) have a maximum maturity of twenty-four (24) months from the date of issuance, and (B) expire no later than one Business Day prior to the Expiration Date unless it is fully Cash Collateralized on or before the Expiration Date, in which event, such Letter of Credit shall expire no later than three hundred sixty-five (365) days after the Expiration Date, and provided that in no event shall (i) the Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding exceed, at any one time, $100,000,000 or (ii) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage exceed, at any one time, the Revolving Credit Commitments.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Letter of Credit may contain customary automatic renewal provisions agreed upon by TGI and the Issuing Bank pursuant to which the expiration date of such Letter of Credit shall automatically be extended for a period of up to 12 months (but not to a date later than the date set forth in clause (B) above), subject to a right on the part of the Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal from occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary in advance of any such renewal; provided that (I) the initial expiration date (or any subsequent expiration date) of each such Letter of Credit is not later than one (1) Business Day prior to the Expiration Date, and (II) renewal of such Letter(s) of Credit, at the Issuing Bank’s discretion, shall be available upon written request from TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, to the Issuing Bank at least thirty (30) days (or such other time period as agreed by TGI and the Issuing Bank) before the date upon which notice of nonrenewal is otherwise required.
Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, extend or increase any Letter of Credit, if any Bank is at such time a Defaulting Bank hereunder, unless the Issuing Bank has entered into satisfactory arrangements with the Borrowers or such Bank to eliminate the Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to such Bank (it being understood that the Issuing Bank would consider the Borrowers providing cash collateral to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, to secure the Defaulting Bank’s Ratable Share of the Letter of Credit a satisfactory arrangement).
2.8.2Letter of Credit Fees.
The Borrowers shall pay in Dollars (i) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Banks a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) at the rate per annum set forth in the Pricing Grid (based on a year of 360 days, and actual days elapsed), and (ii) to the Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee equal to 1/8% per annum, which fees shall be computed on the daily average Dollar Equivalent amount of Letters of Credit Outstanding for the immediately preceding fiscal quarter (or shorter period commencing with the  Closing Date and or ending on the Expiration Date) and shall be payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the first Business Day of October, January, April and July following issuance of each Letter of Credit and on the Expiration Date.  The Borrowers shall also pay to the Issuing Bank in Dollars for the Issuing 


46





Bank’s sole account the Issuing Bank’s then in effect customary fees and administrative expenses payable with respect to the Letters of Credit as the Administrative Agent may generally charge or incur from time to time in connection with the issuance, maintenance, modification (if any), assignment or transfer (if any), negotiation, and administration of Letters of Credit.
2.8.3Disbursements, Reimbursement.
2.8.3.1Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Bank shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank a participation in such Letter of Credit and each drawing thereunder in an amount equal to such Bank’s Ratable Share of the maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit and the amount of such drawing, respectively.
2.8.3.2In the event of any request for a drawing under a Letter of Credit by the beneficiary or transferee thereof, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify TGI, as agent for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.  Provided that it shall have received such notice, the Borrowers shall reimburse (such obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall sometimes be referred to as a “Reimbursement Obligation”) the Issuing Bank in Dollars prior to 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time on each date that an amount is paid by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit (each such date, a “Drawing Date”) in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount so paid by the Issuing Bank.  In the event the Borrowers fail to reimburse the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent) for the full Dollar Equivalent amount of any drawing under any Letter of Credit by 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the Drawing Date, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Bank thereof, and the Borrowers shall be deemed to have requested that Revolving Credit Loans be made by the Banks in Dollars under the Base Rate Option to be disbursed on the Drawing Date under such Letter of Credit, subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan] other than any notice requirements.  Any notice given by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.8.3.2 may be oral if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
2.8.3.3Each Bank shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.8.3.2 make available to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank an amount in Dollars in immediately available funds equal to its Ratable Share (as determined in accordance with Section 2.14, if applicable) of the Dollar Equivalent amount of the drawing, whereupon the participating Banks shall (subject to Section 2.8.3.4) each be deemed to have made a Revolving Credit Loan in Dollars to the Borrowers under the Base Rate Option in that amount.  If any Bank so notified fails to make available in Dollars to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of such Bank’s Ratable Share of such Dollar Equivalent amount by no later than 2:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time on the Drawing Date, then interest shall accrue on such Bank’s obligation to make such payment, from the first Business Day after the Drawing Date to the date on which such Bank makes such payment (i) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate during the first three days following the Drawing Date and (ii) at a rate per annum equal to the rate applicable to Loans under the Base Rate Option on and after the fourth day following the Drawing Date.  The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank will promptly give notice of the occurrence of the Drawing Date, but failure of the Administrative Agent or the 


47





Issuing Bank to give any such notice on the Drawing Date or in sufficient time to enable any Bank to effect such payment on such date shall not relieve such Bank from its obligation under this Section 2.8.3.3.
2.8.3.4With respect to any unreimbursed drawing that is not converted into Revolving Credit Loans to the Borrowers under the Base Rate Option in whole or in part as contemplated by Section 2.8.3.2, because of the Borrowers’ failure to satisfy the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 [Each Additional Loan] other than any notice requirements or for any other reason, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have incurred from the Issuing Bank a borrowing (each a “Letter of Credit Borrowing”) in Dollars equal to the Dollar Equivalent amount of such drawing.  Such Letter of Credit Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the rate per annum applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans under the Base Rate Option.  Each Bank’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.8.3.3 shall be deemed to be a payment in respect of its participation in such Letter of Credit Borrowing and shall constitute a “Participation Advance” from such Bank in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.8.3.
2.8.4Repayment of Participation Advances.
2.8.4.1Upon (and only upon) receipt by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank of immediately available funds from the Borrowers (i) in reimbursement of any payment made by the Issuing Bank under the Letter of Credit with respect to which any Bank has made a Participation Advance to the Issuing Bank, or (ii) in payment of interest on such a payment made by the Issuing Bank under such a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Issuing Bank will pay to each Bank, in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent, the amount of such Bank’s Ratable Share of such funds, except the Administrative Agent shall retain for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of the Ratable Share of such funds of any Bank that did not make a Participation Advance in respect of such payment by the Issuing Bank.
2.8.4.2If the Administrative Agent is required at any time to return to any Loan Party, or to a trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian, or any official in any Insolvency Proceeding, any portion of the payments made by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.8.4.1 in reimbursement of a payment made under the Letter of Credit or interest or fee thereon, each Bank shall, on demand of the Administrative Agent, forthwith return to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank the amount of its Ratable Share of any amounts so returned by the Administrative Agent plus interest thereon from the date such demand is made to the date such amounts are returned by such Bank to the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect from time to time.
2.8.5Documentation.
Each Loan Party agrees to be bound by the terms of the Issuing Bank’s application and agreement for letters of credit and the Issuing Bank’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from 


48





such Loan Party’s own.  In the event of a conflict between such application or agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern.  It is understood and agreed that, except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Issuing Bank shall not be liable for any error, negligence and/or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Loan Party’s instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto.
2.8.6Determinations to Honor Drawing Requests.
In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Bank shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

judgments, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal counsel) which the Issuing Bank or any of its Affiliates may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, other than as a result of (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (B) the wrongful dishonor by the Issuing Bank or any of its Affiliates of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of Credit, except if  such dishonor resulted from any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called “Governmental Acts”).
2.8.9Liability for Acts and Omissions.
As between any Loan Party and the Issuing Bank, or the Issuing Bank’s Affiliates, such Loan Party assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank shall not be responsible for any of the following including any losses or damages to any Loan Party or other Person or property relating therefrom:  (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates shall have been notified thereof); (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any Loan Party against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any Loan Party and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates, as applicable, including any Governmental Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the Issuing Bank’s or its Affiliates rights or powers hereunder.  Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the Issuing Bank from liability for the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (i) through (viii) of such sentence.  In no event shall the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates be liable to any Loan Party for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.


51





Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Issuing Bank and each of its Affiliates (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Issuing Bank or such Affiliate to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Issuing Bank or its Affiliate; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the Issuing Bank or its Affiliate in any way related to any order issued at the applicant’s request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document (each an “Order”) and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to such Order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.
In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific provisions set forth above, any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates under or in connection with the Letters of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder, if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put the Issuing Bank or its Affiliates under any resulting liability to the Borrowers or any Bank.
2.9Swing Loans.
2.9.1Making Swing Loans.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, PNC Bank may in its discretion make swing line loans in Dollars (the “Dollar Swing Loans”) or an Optional Currency (the “Optional Currency Swing Loans”  and together with the Dollar Swing Loans, each a “Swing Loan” and collectively, the “Swing Loans”) to the Borrowers from time to time prior to the Expiration Date in an aggregate outstanding principal amount up to the amount of the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment in the case of Dollar Swing Loans and the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment in the case of Optional Currency Swing Loans for periods requested by TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, and agreed to by PNC Bank; provided, that, no Swing Loan shall be made if, after giving effect to the making of such Swing Loan and the simultaneous application of the proceeds thereof, (x) the aggregate Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage of all of the Banks would exceed the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of all of the Banks or (y) the aggregate amount of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of a Bank plus such Bank’s Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent amount of outstanding Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Outstandings would exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment.  Within the foregoing limits, the Borrowers may, prior to the Expiration Date borrow, repay and reborrow under each of the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment and the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment, as applicable, subject to and in accordance with the terms and limitations hereof.  


52





The interest rate for a Dollar Swing Loan shall be the rate that is mutually agreed by TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, and PNC Bank at the time such Swing Loan is made or, absent such an agreement, at the Base Rate.  The interest rate for an Optional Currency Swing Loan shall be the Euro-Rate.  Interest on the principal amount of each Optional Currency Swing Loan made in an Optional Currency shall be paid by the Borrowers in such Optional Currency, provided that, interest earned after an Optional Currency Swing Loan is converted to its Dollar Equivalent pursuant to Section 2.9.5 shall be payable in Dollars.
2.9.2Swing Loan Request.
TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, may request a Swing Loan to be made on any Business Day.  Each request for a Swing Loan shall be in the form of a  Swing Loan Request (or a request by telephone immediately confirmed in writing, it being understood that PNC Bank may rely on the authority of any individual making such telephonic request without the necessity of receipt of such written confirmation) and received by the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) on the Business Day a Dollar Swing Loan is to be made and four (4) Business Days prior to the proposed Borrowing Date with respect to making Optional Currency Swing Loans specifying (i)  the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, (iii) the date such Swing Loan is to be repaid, if applicable, which date shall be, with respect to Optional Currency Swing Loans, one Month from the Borrowing Date (the “Swing Loan Repayment Date”) and (iv) the currency in which such Optional Currency Swing Loans shall be funded.  The request for such Swing Loan shall be irrevocable.  Provided that all applicable conditions precedent contained herein have been satisfied, PNC Bank shall, not later than 4:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on the date specified in TGI’s request for such Swing Loan, make such Swing Loan by crediting any Borrower’s deposit account with PNC Bank.
2.9.3Swing Loan Notes.
The obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Dollar Swing Loans and the Optional Currency Swing Loans shall be evidenced by separate promissory notes of the Borrowers dated the date hereof, payable to the order of PNC Bank in the principal amount of the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment and the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment, as applicable and substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(S)(1) Dollar Swing Loan Note (the “Dollar Swing Loan Note”) or Exhibit 1.1(S)(2) Optional Currency Swing Loan Note (the “Optional Currency Swing Loan Note”), as applicable (in each case, as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, each a “Swing Loan Note” and collectively, the “Swing Loan Notes”).
2.9.4Repayment.
Swing Loans shall be repaid on the earlier of (i) the Expiration Date or (ii) the Swing Loan Repayment Date for such Swing Loan, provided that with respect to an Optional Currency Swing Loan, the Borrowers may renew the Interest Period thereon by delivering a Swing Loan Request therefor in accordance with the terms of Section 2.9.2.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Swing Loan at any time shall be repaid upon demand by the Administrative Agent (any such date being the “Swing Loan Conversion Date”) and each Borrower shall indemnify PNC Bank and each other Bank pursuant to Section 5.5.2 on account of such repayment.  Unless TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall have notified the 


53





Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, on such Swing Loan Conversion Date that the Borrowers intend to repay such Swing Loan with funds other than the proceeds of a Revolving Credit Loan, or, in the case of an Optional Currency Swing Loan, renew the Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given notice to the Administrative Agent requesting the Banks to make Revolving Credit Loans in U.S. Dollars in an amount determined by PNC Bank in its sole discretion equal to the Dollar Equivalent at the prevailing market rate of such Swing Loans, which Revolving Credit Loans shall earn interest at the Base Rate in effect on the Swing Loan Conversion Date in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Loan plus interest thereon, and the Banks shall, on the Swing Loan Conversion Date, make Revolving Credit Loans (without the requirement that they comply with the conditions for Revolving Credit Loans in Section 2.4 [Revolving Credit Loan Requests]), which shall earn interest at the Base Rate, in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Loan plus interest thereon, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by the Administrative Agent to repay PNC Bank for such Swing Loan then due plus accrued interest thereon; and provided, further, that if for any reason the proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans are not received by PNC Bank on the Swing Loan Conversion Date in an aggregate amount equal to the amount of such Swing Loan then due plus accrued interest, the Borrowers shall reimburse PNC Bank on the day immediately following the Swing Loan Conversion Date, in same day funds, in an amount equal to the excess of the amount of such Swing Loan then due over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Credit Loans, if any, received plus accrued interest thereon.
2.9.5Participations.
In the event that the Borrowers shall fail to repay PNC Bank as provided in Section 2.9.4, PNC Bank shall convert such Swing Loan, if an Optional Currency Swing Loan, to a Swing Loan in Dollars at the Dollar Equivalent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Bank of the unpaid Dollar Equivalent amount of such Swing Loan and of such Bank’s respective participation therein in a Dollar Equivalent amount equal to such Bank’s Ratable Share of such Swing Loan, as calculated at the date PNC Bank converts the Optional Currency in which Optional Currency Swing Loans are denominated to Dollars, if applicable.  Each Bank shall make available to the Administrative Agent for payment to PNC Bank a Dollar Equivalent amount equal to its respective participation therein (including without limitation its Ratable Share of accrued but unpaid interest thereon, provided that the interest rate payable by the participating Banks shall not include the default rate component), in Dollars and in same day funds at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in such notice.  If such notice is delivered by the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, each Bank shall make funds available to the Administrative Agent on that Business Day.  If such notice is delivered after 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, each Bank shall make funds available to the Administrative Agent on the next Business Day.  In the event that any Bank fails to make available to the Administrative Agent the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Bank’s participation in such unpaid amount as provided herein, PNC Bank shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank together with interest thereon at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day during the period between the date such participation amount is required to be paid and the date on which such Bank makes available its participation in such unpaid amount. The failure of any Bank to make available to the Administrative Agent its Ratable Share of any 


54





such unpaid amount shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligations hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent its Ratable Share of such unpaid amount when due as set forth above.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute to each Bank which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.9.5 with respect to the unpaid amount of any Swing Loan, such Bank’s Ratable Share (based on its participation in such Swing Loan and interest thereon) of all payments received by the Administrative Agent from any of the Borrowers in repayment of such Swing Loan when such payments are received.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Bank which has paid all amounts payable by it under this Section 2.9.5 shall have a direct right to repayment of such amounts from the Borrowers subject to the procedures for repaying Banks set forth in this Section 2.9.5 and the provisions of Section 5.
2.9.6Termination.
In the event the Revolving Credit Commitments are terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, each of the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment and the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment shall also be terminated automatically.  In the event the Borrowers reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments to less than either the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment or the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment, such Swing Loan Commitment shall immediately be reduced to an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitments.  In the event the Borrowers reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments to less than the outstanding principal amount of the Dollar Swing Loans or the Optional Currency Swing Loans, the Borrowers shall immediately repay the amount by which such outstanding Swing Loans exceeds the Dollar Swing Loan Commitment or the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment, as applicable, as so reduced plus accrued interest thereon.
2.9.7Minimum Amounts.
At no time shall there be more than (i) one (1) outstanding Dollar Swing Loan, except as to Swing Loans made pursuant to Section 2.9.9 and (ii) three (3) outstanding Optional Currency Swing Loans.  Each Dollar Swing Loan shall be in a minimum original principal amount of $100,000 and integral multiples thereof, except as to Swing Loans made pursuant to Section 2.9.9, as to which there shall be no minimum.  Each Optional Currency Swing Loan shall be in a minimum original principal amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples thereof.
2.9.8Prepayment.
The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay the Swing Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty (but in any event subject to Section 5.5.2), upon prior written, facsimile or telephonic notice to PNC Bank given by TGI on the Borrowers’ behalf no later than 11:00 a.m., Pittsburgh time, on the date of any proposed prepayment.  Each notice of prepayment shall specify the Swing Loan to be prepaid and the amount to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrowers to prepay such amount on such date, with accrued interest thereon and any other amounts owed hereunder.
2.9.9Swing Loans Under Cash Management Agreements.
In addition to making Dollar Swing Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.9, without the requirement for a specific request from the Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.9.2, PNC Bank may make Dollar Swing Loans to the Borrowers in accordance with the 


55





provisions of the agreements between TGI and PNC Bank relating to TGI’s deposit, sweep and other accounts at PNC Bank and related arrangements and agreements regarding the management and investment of TGI’s cash assets as in effect from time to time (the “Cash Management Agreements”) to the extent of the daily aggregate net negative balance in TGI’s accounts which are subject to the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements.  Dollar Swing Loans made pursuant to this Section 2.9.9 in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements shall (i) be subject to the limitations as to aggregate amount set forth in Section 2.9.1, (ii) not be subject to the limitations as to number or individual amount set forth in Sections 2.9.7 or the repayment provisions of Section 2.9.4, (iii) be payable by the Borrowers, both as to principal and interest, at the times set forth in the Cash Management Agreements (but in no event later than the Expiration Date), (iv) not be made at any time after PNC Bank has received written notice of the occurrence of a Potential Default or Event of Default, (v) if not repaid by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of the Cash Management Agreements, be subject to each Bank’s obligation to purchase participating interests therein pursuant to Section 2.9.5, and (vi) except as provided in the foregoing subsections (i) through (v), be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Section 2.9. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that each Borrower materially benefits from the arrangements made pursuant to this Section 2.9.9 and the Cash Management Agreements, and each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable, subject to Section 11.20, for all Obligations, including without limitation, those arising from the operation of this Section 2.9.9.
2.9.10Nature of Obligations.
Each Bank’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.9.5 in the event that the Borrowers shall fail to repay PNC Bank as provided in Section 2.9.4 in the amount required under such Section shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Bank may have against any other Bank or any Borrower, or any Borrower may have against any Bank or any other Person, as the case may be, for any reason  whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Potential Default or Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any of the Borrowers; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by any party hereto; (v) the failure to satisfy any condition to the making of any Loan hereunder; or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
2.9.11Indemnity.
Each Bank shall ratably in accordance with its Ratable Share, indemnify PNC Bank (in its capacity as lender of Swing Loans), its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents and employees (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers) against any cost, expense (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses), claim, demand, action, loss or liability (except any of the foregoing that results from the indemnitees’ gross negligence or willful misconduct) that such indemnities may suffer or incur in connection with this Section 2.9 or any action taken or omitted by such indemnities hereunder.

2.10Utilization of Optional Currency Swing Loans and Letters of Credit.
2.10.1Periodic Computations of Dollar Equivalent Amounts of Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding.
The Administrative Agent will determine the Dollar Equivalent amount of (i) proposed Swing Loans or Letters of Credit to be denominated in an Optional Currency, (ii) Letters of Credit Outstanding denominated in an Optional Currency, and (iii) outstanding Swing Loans denominated in an Optional Currency on any Business Day selected by the Administrative Agent and as frequently as the Administrative Agent desires (each such date, a “Computation Date”).
2.10.2Notices From Banks That Optional Currencies Are Unavailable to Fund New Loans.
PNC Bank shall be under no obligation to make the Optional Currency Swing Loans and no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue Letters of Credit requested by the Borrowers which are denominated in an Optional Currency if, PNC Bank or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Administrative Agent by 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) four (4) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Optional Currency Swing Loans or date of issuance that (i) the making, maintenance or funding of such Optional Currency Swing Loan, the issuance of such Letter of Credit, or the funding of any draw thereunder has been made or, in the case of a draw, would be made, impracticable or unlawful by compliance by PNC Bank or such Issuing Bank in good-faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law) or (ii) after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in the relevant Optional Currency for the relevant Interest Period are not available to PNC Bank with respect to such Optional Currency Swing Loan in the London interbank market.  In the event the Administrative Agent receives a timely notice from PNC Bank or an Issuing Bank pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent will notify TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, (1) no later than 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh time) three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Optional Currency Swing Loans that the Optional Currency is not then available for such Optional Currency Swing Loans, or (2) prior to the issuance of an Optional Currency Letter of Credit, that Letters of Credit are not then available in such Optional Currency.  If TGI receives a notice described in the preceding sentence, the Borrowers may, by notice from TGI to the Administrative Agent not later than 5:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh time) three (3) Business Days prior to the Borrowing Date for such Optional Currency Swing Loans, or issuance of such Letter of Credit, as the case may be, either (a) withdraw the Swing Loan Request or request for such Letter of Credit for such Optional Currency Swing Loans or Letter of Credit, as the case may be, in which event the Administrative Agent will promptly notify PNC Bank and Issuing Bank of the same and PNC Bank shall not make such Optional Currency Swing Loans, and Issuing Bank shall not issue such Letter of Credit or (b) request that the Swing Loans referred to in its Swing Loan Request or Letter of Credit, as the case may be, be made in Dollars or in a different Optional Currency in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent or other Optional Currency Equivalent Amount of such Swing Loans or Letter of Credit and shall (A) in the case of Swing Loans denominated in Dollars, bear interest at the rate determined pursuant to Section 2.9.1, or (B) in the case of Swing Loans denominated in an Optional Currency, bear 


57





interest at the Euro-Rate, in which event the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to PNC Bank and/or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, stating: in the case of (X) Swing Loans, (I) that such Swing Loans shall be made in the applicable currency and the interest rate applicable thereto, and (II) the aggregate amount of such Swing Loans and, (Y) Letters of Credit (I) such Letters of Credit shall be issued in the applicable currency and (II) the stated face amount of such Letters of Credit.  If the Borrowers do not withdraw such Swing Loan Request or request for Letter of Credit before such time as provided in clause (a) or request before such time that the requested Swing Loans referred to in its Swing Loan Request or Letter of Credit be made in Dollars or a different Optional Currency as provided in clause (b), then (i) the Borrowers shall be deemed to have withdrawn such Swing Loan Request or request for Letter of Credit, as the case may be, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a notice to PNC Bank and/or the Issuing Bank thereof and PNC Bank shall not be obligated to make such Swing Loans and Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue such Letter of Credit.
2.10.3Intentionally Omitted.
2.10.4Requests for Additional Optional Currencies.
TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, may deliver to the Administrative Agent a written request that Optional Currency Swing Loans hereunder and/or Letters of Credit issued hereunder also be permitted to be made or issued in any other lawful currency (other than Dollars), in addition to the currencies specified in the definition of “Optional Currency” herein, provided that such currency must be freely traded in the offshore interbank foreign exchange markets, freely transferable, freely convertible into Dollars and available to PNC Bank and the Issuing Banks  in the applicable interbank market.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify TGI of the acceptance or rejection by the Administrative Agent, of the Borrowers’ request.  The requested currency shall be approved as an Optional Currency hereunder only if the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank and all of the Issuing Banks approve of the Borrowers’ request.
2.11Currency Repayments.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the entire amount of principal of and interest on any Optional Currency Swing Loan shall be repaid in the same Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, provided, however, that if it is impossible or illegal for the Borrowers to effect payment of a Loan in the Optional Currency in which such Loan was made, or if the Borrowers default in their obligations to do so, PNC Bank, may at its option permit such payment to be made (i) at and to a different location, subsidiary, affiliate or correspondent of the Administrative Agent, or (ii) in the Dollar Equivalent, or (iii) in an Equivalent Amount of such other currency (freely convertible into Dollars) as the PNC Bank may solely at its option designate.  Upon any events described in (i) through (iii) of the preceding sentence, the Borrowers shall make such payment.  In all events, whether described in such clauses (i) through (iii), whether the Borrowers make such required payments, or otherwise, (a) the Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to hold PNC Bank, each Issuing Bank and each Bank harmless from and against any loss incurred by any of them arising from the cost to such indemnified party of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Optional Currency Swing Loan was originally made, and from 


58





any change in the value of Dollars, or such other currency, in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing, and (b) each Bank agrees to hold PNC Bank and each Issuing Bank harmless from and against any loss incurred by PNC Bank or such Issuing Bank arising from the cost to PNC Bank or such Issuing Bank of any premium, any costs of exchange, the cost of hedging and covering the Optional Currency in which such Optional Currency Swing Loan or Letter of Credit, as the case may be, was originally made, and from any change in the value of Dollars or such other currency in relation to the Optional Currency that was due and owing. Such loss shall be calculated for the period commencing with the first day of the Interest Period for such Loan and continuing through the date of payment thereof.  Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrowers or Banks hereunder, the Borrowers’ and Banks’ respective obligations under this Section 2.11 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
2.12Optional Currency Amounts.
Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, PNC Bank may, with respect to notices by TGI on behalf of the Borrowers for Optional Currency Swing Loans or voluntary prepayments of less than the full amount of an Optional Currency Swing Loan, engage in reasonable rounding of the Optional Currency amounts requested to be loaned or repaid; and, in such event, PNC Bank shall promptly notify TGI, the Administrative Agent and the Banks of such rounded amounts and Borrowers’ request or notice shall thereby be deemed to reflect such rounded amounts.
2.13Intentionally Omitted.
2.14Defaulting Banks.
Notwithstanding anything contained in Sections 2.8, 2.9 or any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Bank becomes a Defaulting Bank then: all Letters of Credit Outstanding and Swing Loans outstanding at such time, and all Letters of Credit issued or Swing Loans made while there exists a Defaulting Bank shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Banks in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (such Ratable Shares shall be determined without reference to each Defaulting Bank’s Ratable Share) so long as no Potential Default or Event of Default exists on the date of reallocation and thereafter continues uncured, but only to the extent (a) the sum of all non-Defaulting Banks’ Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus the sum of such non-Defaulting Banks’ Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent of all Swing Loans then outstanding and Letters of Credit Outstanding at such time does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Banks’ Revolving Credit Commitments and (b) the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Bank to acquire, refinance or fund any participations in the Defaulting Bank’s portion of Letters of Credit Outstanding and Swing Loans pursuant to reallocation contemplated above shall not exceed the positive difference between (i) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Bank minus (ii) such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus such Bank’s Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent of all Swing Loans then outstanding and Letters of Credit Outstanding at such time.  If the reallocation described in the preceding sentence cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, (1) first, prepay outstanding Swing Loans and (2) second, cash collateralize such Defaulting Bank’s portion of Letters of Credit Outstanding (in each case, after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant 


59





the immediately preceding sentence).  To the extent such Letters of Credit Outstanding and Swing Loans are reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.14, then the fees payable to the Banks pursuant to Section 2.8.2 (but not Section 2.3) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Banks’ Ratable Shares.  To the extent a portion of the Defaulting Bank’s Letters of Credit outstanding are cash collateralized pursuant to clause (2) above, the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any fees to or for the account of such Defaulting Bank pursuant to Section 2.8.2 with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Outstandings during the period such Defaulting Bank’s Letter of Credit Outstandings are cash collateralized.  To the extent such Letters of Credit Outstanding are not reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.14, or the Defaulting Bank’s Ratable Share of Letters of Credit Outstanding have not been cash collateralized, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Bank hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Bank (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment that was utilized by such Letters of Credit Outstanding) and Letter of Credit Fees with respect to such Defaulting Bank’s Ratable Share of the Letters of Credit Outstanding shall be payable to the Issuing Bank.  Subject to Section 11.23, nothing contained in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement and no reallocation of any Defaulting Bank’s Ratable Share of any obligation hereunder shall relieve such Defaulting Bank of its obligation to fund any portion of any amount owed by such Defaulting Bank hereunder.
In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, and the Issuing Banks each agree that a Defaulting Bank has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Bank to be a Defaulting Bank, then the Letters of Credit Outstanding and the Swing Loans outstanding shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Bank’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date, such Bank shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Banks as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Bank to hold such Loans in accordance with its Ratable Share.
2.15Extension of Expiration Date.
Notwithstanding anything contained in any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Revolving Credit Commitments (or portions of the Revolving Credit Commitments) held by the Banks set forth on Schedule 2.15 (such Banks, the "Non-Extending Banks" and such Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Expiring Commitments”) shall automatically terminate on November 19, 2018 (the “Original Expiration Date”) to the extent such Expiring Commitments are held by such Non-Extending Banks on the Original Expiration Date, and upon such termination, if applicable, the Borrowers shall, (a) pay, with accrued interest and with any additional compensation required under Section 2.3 and Section 5.5.2, the amount of any Revolving Credit Loans related to such Expiring Commitments, (b) prepay any additional Revolving Credit Loans of the Banks to the extent that the Revolving Credit Usage exceeds the Revolving Credit Commitments (in each case after giving effect to the Expiring Commitments) and (c) make any other payments required hereunder, including without limitation, payments required under Section 2.8, Section 2.9 and Section 5.6.  After giving effect to the Expiring Commitments, if any, all Letters of Credit Outstanding and Swing Loans outstanding at such time, and all Letters of Credit issued or Swing Loans made after the Original Expiration Date shall be reallocated among the Banks holding Revolving Credit Commitments after the Original Expiration Date in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (as determined after giving 


60





effect to the Expiring Commitments and without reference to any Bank’s Expiring Commitment), but only to the extent, in each case, after giving effect to the Expiring Commitments, (x) the sum of all Banks’ Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus the sum of such Banks’ Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent of all Swing Loans then outstanding and Letters of Credit Outstanding at such time does not exceed the total of all such Banks’ Revolving Credit Commitments and (y) the aggregate obligation of each Bank to acquire, refinance or fund any participations in the portion of Letters of Credit Outstanding and Swing Loans pursuant to the reallocation contemplated above shall not exceed, in each case, after giving effect to the Expiring Commitments, the positive difference between (i) the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Bank minus (ii) such Bank’s Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding plus such Bank’s Ratable Share of the Dollar Equivalent of all Swing Loans then outstanding and Letters of Credit Outstanding at such time.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the reallocation described in the preceding sentence cannot, or can only partially, be effected, or if a Potential Default or Event of Default exists on the Original Expiration Date, the Borrowers shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent, (1) first, prepay the pro rata portion of outstanding Swing Loans related to the Expiring Commitments and (2) second, cash collateralize a pro rata portion of Letters of Credit Outstanding related to the Expiring Commitments (in each case, after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant the immediately preceding sentence).  Notwithstanding any provision contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, each Bank party to the Sixth Amendment hereby agrees to this Section 2.15 and the non-pro rata treatment of certain payments as set forth in this Section.
		
	3.
	TERM LOANS


3.1Term Loan Commitments.
Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Bank severally agrees to make a term loan (the “Term Loan”) to the Borrowers on the Closing Date in such principal amount as the Borrowers shall request up to, but not exceeding such Bank’s Term Loan Commitment.
3.2Nature of Banks’ Obligations with Respect to Term Loans; Repayment Terms.
The obligations of each Bank to make Term Loans to the Borrowers shall be in the proportion that such Bank’s Term Loan Commitment bears to the Term Loan Commitments of all Banks to the Borrowers, but each Bank’s Term Loan to the Borrowers shall never exceed its Term Loan Commitment.  The failure of any Bank to make a Term Loan shall not relieve any other Bank of its obligations to make a Term Loan nor shall it impose any additional liability on any other Bank hereunder.  The Banks shall have no obligation to make Term Loans hereunder after the Closing Date.  The Term Loan Commitments are not revolving credit commitments, and the Borrowers shall not have the right to borrow, repay and reborrow under Section 3.1 [Term Loan Commitments].  The Borrowers shall repay the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loan in quarterly installments, each on the first Business Day of each January, April, July and October, commencing April, 2014, as follows:


61





	
		
	Payment Due Between
	Amount of Each Payment

	April, 2014 and January, 2016 inclusive
	$4,687,500.00

	April, 2016 and January, 2018 inclusive
	$7,031,250.00

	April, 2018 and January, 2019 inclusive
	$9,375,000.00




On the Term Loan Maturity Date the Borrowers shall pay all outstanding principal of the Term Loan, together with all unpaid interest thereon and all other sums outstanding hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.
3.3Term Notes.
The Obligation of the Borrowers to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans made by each Bank, together with interest thereon, shall be evidenced by a Term Note payable to the order of such Bank in a face amount equal to the Term Loan Commitment of such Bank.
		
	4.
	INTEREST RATES


4.1Interest Rate Options.
The Borrowers shall pay interest in respect of the outstanding unpaid principal amount of the Loans as selected by them from the Base Rate Option or Euro-Rate Option set forth below applicable to the Loans, it being understood that, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may select different Interest Rate Options and different Interest Periods to apply simultaneously to the Loans comprising different Borrowing Tranches and may convert to or renew one or more Interest Rate Options with respect to all or any portion of the Loans comprising any Borrowing Tranche, provided that there shall not be at any one time outstanding more than ten (10) Borrowing Tranches in the aggregate among all of the Loans.  If at any time the designated rate applicable to any Loan made by any Bank exceeds such Bank’s highest lawful rate, the rate of interest on such Bank’s Loan shall be limited to such Bank’s highest lawful rate.  The interest rate applicable to the Swing Loans shall be governed by Section 2.9.
4.1.1Revolving Credit Interest Rate Options.
The Borrowers shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Revolving Credit Loans, except that no Loan to which the Base Rate Option shall apply may be made in an Optional Currency:
(i)Base Rate Option:  A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365/366 days, as the case may be, or, if the Base Rate is measured by reference to the Daily Euro Rate, 360 days, and in each case actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the applicable number of basis points calculated under the Pricing Grid, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or


62





(ii)Euro-Rate Option:  A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed, provided that, for Loans made in an Optional Currency for which a 365-day basis is the only market practice available to the Administrative Agent, such rate shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 days and for the actual days elapsed) equal to the Euro-Rate plus the applicable number of basis points calculated under the Pricing Grid.
4.1.2Term Loan Interest Rate Options.
The Borrower shall have the right to select from the following Interest Rate Options applicable to the Term Loans:
(i)Term Loan Base Rate Option:  A fluctuating rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, or, if the Base Rate is measured by reference to the Daily Euro Rate, 360 days, and in each case actual days elapsed) equal to the Base Rate plus the applicable number of basis points calculated under the Pricing Grid, such interest rate to change automatically from time to time effective as of the effective date of each change in the Base Rate; or
(ii)Term Loan Euro-Rate Option:  A rate per annum (computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed) equal to the Euro-Rate plus the applicable number of basis point calculated under the Pricing Grid.
4.2Rate Quotations.
TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, may call the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which a Loan Request is to be delivered to receive an indication of the interest rates and the applicable currency exchange rates then in effect, but it is acknowledged that such projection shall not be binding on the Administrative Agent or the Banks nor affect the rate of interest or the calculation of Equivalent Amounts which thereafter are actually in effect when the election is made.
4.3Interest Periods.
At any time when the Borrowers shall select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option, TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof by delivering a Loan Request at least four (4) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Interest Rate Option, with respect to an Optional Currency Swing Loan, and three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such Euro-Rate Option, with respect to a Dollar Loan.  The notice shall specify an interest period (the “Interest Period”) during which such Interest Rate Option shall apply, such Interest Period to be one, two, three or six Months, provided that, the sole Interest Period applicable to Optional Currency Swing Loans shall be one Month, and provided further, that:
4.3.1Ending Date and Business Day.
Any Interest Period which would otherwise end on a date which is not a Business Day shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day falls in the 


63





next calendar month, in which case such Interest Period shall end on the next preceding Business Day;
4.3.2Amount of Borrowing Tranche.
The amount of each Borrowing Tranche of Euro-Rate Loans (other than Optional Currency Swing Loans, which are addressed in Section 2.9.7) shall be in integral multiples of $500,000 and not less than $2,000,000;
4.3.3Termination Before Expiration Date.
The Borrowers shall not select, convert to or renew an Interest Period for any portion of the (i) Revolving Credit Loans that would end after the Expiration Date, or (ii) Term Loans that would end after the Term Loan Maturity Date; and
4.3.4Renewals.
In the case of the renewal of a Euro-Rate Option at the end of an Interest Period, the first day of the new Interest Period shall be the last day of the preceding Interest Period, without duplication in payment of interest for such day.
4.4Interest After Default.
To the extent permitted by Law, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and until such time such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived and to the extent the Administrative Agent at the request of the Required Banks (or PNC Bank alone with respect to Swing Loans which are not converted to Revolving Credit Loans) elect (which election may be made without prior notice to the Borrowers):
4.4.1Letter of Credit Fees, Interest Rate.
The Letter of Credit Fees and the rate of interest borne by each Loan shall  equal the sum of (i) the interest rate per annum applicable under the Base Rate Option plus (ii) 2.0% per annum; and
4.4.2Other Obligations.
Each other Obligation hereunder if not paid when due shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the sum of the rate of interest applicable under the  Base Rate Option plus an additional 2.0% per annum from the time such Obligation becomes due and payable and until it is Paid In Full.
4.4.3Acknowledgment.
Each Borrower acknowledges that such increased rates reflect, among other things, the fact that such Loans or other amounts have become a substantially greater risk given their default status and that the Banks are entitled to additional compensation for such risk; and, all such interest shall be payable by the Borrowers upon demand by the Administrative Agent.


64





4.5Euro-Rate Unascertainable.
4.5.1Unascertainable.
If on any date on which a Euro-Rate would otherwise be determined, the Administrative Agent shall have determined that:
(i)adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining such Euro-Rate, or
(ii)a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the London interbank eurodollar market relating to the Euro-Rate, then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.5.3.
4.5.2Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available.
If at any time any Bank shall have determined that:
(i)the making, maintenance or funding of any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies has been made impracticable or unlawful by compliance by such Bank in good-faith with any Law or any interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body or with any request or directive of any such Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), or
(ii)such Euro-Rate Option will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Bank of the establishment or maintenance of any such Loan, or
(iii)after making all reasonable efforts, deposits of the relevant amount in Dollars or in the Optional Currency (as applicable) for the relevant Interest Period for a Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies are not available to such Bank with respect to such Loan in the London interbank market, then the Administrative Agent shall have the rights specified in Section 4.5.3.
4.5.3Administrative Agent’s and Banks’ Rights.
In the case of any event specified in subsection 4.5.1 above, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Banks and TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, thereof, and in the case of an event specified in subsection 4.5.2 above, such Bank shall promptly so notify the Administrative Agent and endorse a certificate to such notice as to the specific circumstances of such notice, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly send copies of such notice and certificate to the other Banks and TGI on behalf of the Borrowers.  Upon such date as shall be specified in such notice (which shall not be earlier than the date such notice is given), the obligation of (A) the Banks, in the case of such notice given by the Administrative Agent, or (B) such Bank, in the case of such notice given by such Bank, to allow the Borrowers to select, convert to or renew a Euro-Rate Option or select an Optional Currency (as applicable) shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall have later notified TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, or such Bank shall have later notified the Administrative Agent, of the Administrative 


65





Agent’s or such Bank’s, as the case may be, determination that the circumstances giving rise to such previous determination no longer exist.  If at any time the Administrative Agent makes a determination under subsection 4.5.1 of this Section 4.5 and TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, has previously notified the Administrative Agent of their selection of, conversion to or renewal of a Euro-Rate Option and such Interest Rate Option has not yet gone into effect, such notification shall be deemed to provide for selection of, conversion to or renewal of the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loans.  If any Bank notifies the Administrative Agent of a determination under subsection 4.5.2 of this Section 4.5, the Borrowers shall, subject to the Borrowers’ indemnification Obligations under Section 5.5.2, as to any Loan of the Bank to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, on the date specified in such notice either (i) as applicable, convert such Loan to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan or select a different Optional Currency or Dollars, or (ii) prepay such Loan in accordance with Section 5.4.  Absent due notice from TGI, on behalf of the Borrowers, of conversion or prepayment, such Loan shall automatically be converted to the Base Rate Option otherwise available with respect to such Loan upon such specified date.
4.6Selection of Interest Rate Options.
If the Borrowers fail to select a new Interest Period or Optional Currency to apply to any Borrowing Tranche of Euro-Rate Loans at the expiration of an existing Interest Period applicable to such Borrowing Tranche in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 [Interest Periods], the Borrowers shall be deemed to have (a) with respect to Dollar Loans, converted such Borrowing Tranche to the Base Rate Option, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period and (b) with respect to any such Optional Currency Swing Loan Borrowing Tranche, continued the same Optional Currency therefor, but selected a one Month Interest Period therefor, commencing upon the last day of the existing Interest Period.

	PAYMENTS


5.1Payments.
All payments and prepayments to be made in respect of principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, Administrative Agent’s Fee or other fees or amounts due from the Borrowers hereunder shall be payable prior to 1:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, on the date when due without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers, and without set-off, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature, and an action therefor shall immediately accrue.  Such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Principal Office for the ratable accounts of the Banks with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans or Term Loans in U.S. Dollars except that payments of principal or interest shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made, and in immediately available funds, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such amounts to the Banks in immediately available funds, provided that in the event payments are received by 1:00 p.m., Pittsburgh time, by the Administrative Agent with respect to the Loans and such payments are not distributed to the Banks on the same day received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall pay the Banks the Federal Funds Effective Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in Dollars or the Overnight Rate in the case of Loans or other amounts due in an Optional Currency, with respect to the amount of such payments for each day held by the Administrative Agent and not distributed to the Banks.  The Administrative Agent’s and each Bank’s statement of account, 


66





ledger or other relevant record shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive as the statement of the amount of principal of and interest on the Loans and other amounts owing under this Agreement (including the Equivalent Amounts of the applicable currencies where such computations are required) and shall be deemed an “account stated.”  Except where payment is required earlier, as provided herein, the Borrowers agree to repay (i) with respect to the Term Loans, on the Term Loan Maturity Date, and (ii) with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans, on the Expiration Date, all principal, interest, fees and other Obligations with respect to such Loans then outstanding.  In the event that at any time the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrowers shall promptly repay such excess in immediately available funds.
5.2Pro Rata Treatment of Banks.
Subject to Section 2.14, each borrowing shall be allocated to each Bank according to its Ratable Share, and each selection of, conversion to or renewal of any Interest Rate Option and each payment or prepayment by the Borrowers with respect to principal, interest, Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees, or other fees (except for the Administrative Agent’s Fee and the Issuing Banks’ fronting fee) or amounts due from the Borrowers hereunder to the Banks with respect to the Loans, shall (except as provided in Section 4.5.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits not Available] in the case of an event specified in Section 4.5 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable], 5.4.2 [Replacement of a Bank] or 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) be made in proportion to the applicable Loans outstanding from each Bank and, if no such Loans are then outstanding, in proportion to the Ratable Share of each Bank.  Subject to Section 2.14, notwithstanding any of the foregoing, each borrowing or payment, repayment or prepayment by the Borrowers of principal, interest, fees or other amounts from the Borrowers with respect to Swing Loans shall be made by or to PNC Bank according to Section 2.9.
5.3Interest Payment Dates.
Interest on Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each October, January, April and July for the prior fiscal quarter, and on the date such Loans are Paid In Full.  Interest on Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan was made on the last day of each Interest Period for those Loans and, if such Interest Period is longer than three (3) months, also on each day that interest would have been payable had successive Interest Periods of three months’ duration been applicable to such Loans.  Interest on mandatory prepayments of principal under Section 5.6 shall be made in the currency in which such Loan was made and shall be due on the date such mandatory prepayment is due.  Interest on the principal amount of each Loan or other monetary Obligation shall be due and payable in the currency in which such Loan was made on demand after such principal amount or such other monetary Obligation becomes due and payable (whether on the stated maturity date, upon acceleration or otherwise).

5.4Voluntary Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.
5.4.1Right to Prepay.
The Borrowers shall have the right at their option from time to time to prepay the Loans in whole or part without premium or penalty (except as provided in subsection 5.4.2 below or in Section 5.5) in the currency in which such Loan was made:
(i)at any time with respect to any Loan to which the Base Rate Option applies,
(ii)on the last day of the applicable Interest Period with respect to Loans to which a Euro-Rate Option applies, provided however the Borrowers may otherwise prepay such Loans upon payment of all amounts owing under Section 5.5.2 resulting from such prepayment,
(iii)on the date specified in a notice by any Bank pursuant to Section 4.5.3 [Administrative Agent’s and Banks’ Rights] with respect to any Loan to which a Euro-Rate Option applies.
Whenever the Borrowers desire to prepay any part of the Loans, TGI shall provide a prepayment notice to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrowers on or before (and in the case of Optional Currency Swing Loans, four (4) days before) the date of prepayment of Loans setting forth the following information:
(a)the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made;
(b)a statement indicating the application of the prepayment; and
(c)the total principal amount and currency of such prepayment, the Dollar Equivalent amount of which shall not be less than $200,000 for the Revolving Credit Loans.
Notwithstanding the foregoing to the contrary, whenever the Borrowers desire to prepay any part of the Swing Loans TGI shall provide notice thereof on behalf of the Borrowers no later than 12:00 noon, Pittsburgh time, on the date of prepayment of Swing Loans setting forth the following information:
(x)    the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which the proposed prepayment is to be made; and
(y)    a statement indicating the application of the prepayment between the Swing Loans.
The amount of the payment shall not be less than $25,000 for any Swing Loan except for Swing Loans made pursuant to Section 2.9.9, as to which there shall be no minimum.


68





All prepayment notices shall be irrevocable.  The principal amount of the Loans for which a prepayment notice is given, together with interest on such principal amount, shall be due and payable on the date specified in such prepayment notice as the date on which the proposed prepayment is to be made in the currency in which such Loan was made.  All Term Loan prepayments permitted hereunder shall be applied pro rata against all unpaid installments of principal of the Term Loans.  Except as provided in Section 4.5.3, if the Borrowers prepay a Loan but fails to specify the applicable Borrowing Tranche which the Borrowers are prepaying, the prepayment shall be applied (i) first to Revolving Credit Loans and then to Term Loans; (ii) after giving effect to the allocations in clause (i) above and in the preceding sentence, first to the Loans to which the Base Rate Option applies, then to Dollar Loans to which the Euro-Rate Option applies, and then to Optional Currency Swing Loans.  Any prepayment hereunder shall be subject to the Borrowers’ obligation to indemnify the Banks under Section 5.5.2.
5.4.2Replacement of a Bank.
In the event any Bank (i) gives notice under Section 4.5.2, Section 5.5.1, or Section 11.20(vii), (ii) becomes a Defaulting Bank or otherwise does not fund Revolving Credit Loans in breach of its obligations under Section 2.5 or because the making of such Loans would contravene any Law applicable to such Bank, (iii) does not approve the extension of the Expiration Date and the Term Loan Maturity Date as contemplated by the Sixth Amendment and the consent of the Required Banks is obtained hereunder (such Bank, a “Declining Bank”), (iv) does not approve any other action as to which its consent is required  (other than the consent of the Administrative Agent under Section 11.1.1) and the consent of the Required Banks is obtained hereunder, or (v) becomes subject to the control of an Official Body (other than normal and customary supervision), then the Borrowers shall have the right at their option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, to prepay the Loans of such Bank in whole, together with all interest accrued thereon, and terminate such Bank’s Commitment within ninety (90) days after (v) receipt of such Bank’s notice under Section 4.5.2, 5.5.1, or 11.20(vii), (w) the date such Bank has become a Defaulting Bank or otherwise has failed to fund Revolving Credit Loans in breach of its obligations under Section 2.5 or because the making of such Loans would contravene Law applicable to such Bank, (x) the date of obtaining the consent which such Bank has not approved, (y) the date such Bank became subject to the control of an Official Body, (z) receipt of such Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s notice under Section 2.10.2; provided that the Borrowers shall also pay to such Bank at the time of such prepayment any amounts required under Section 5.5 and any accrued interest due on such amount and any related fees; provided, however, that the Commitment of such Bank shall be provided by one or more of the remaining Banks or a replacement bank reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent; provided, further, the remaining Banks shall have no obligation hereunder to increase their Commitments; provided further, in the case of an assignment by a Declining Bank under this Section 5.4.2, the remaining Bank(s) or the replacement bank(s) that is or are the assignees of the Declining Bank shall agree at the time of such assignment to the extension of the Expiration Date and the Term Loan Maturity Date (as contemplated by the Sixth Amendment), which agreement shall be set forth in a written instrument delivered and satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent; provided further, in the event none of the Banks or any replacement bank acquire the Commitments of the Defaulting Bank the Borrowers may terminate such Defaulting Bank’s Commitment and reduce the aggregate 


69





Commitments of all of the Banks by the amount of such Defaulting Bank’s terminated Commitment subject to the provisions (other than the pro rata provisions) set forth in Section 5.4.3 below; provided that the Borrowers shall prepay the Loans of the Defaulting Bank and any amount required by Section 5.5 and any accrued interest due on such amount and any related fees.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may only be replaced subject to the requirements of Section 10.14 and an Issuing Bank may only be replaced if all applicable Letters of Credit which it has issued have expired, been terminated or replaced or cash collateral or backup letters of credit shall have been deposited.
5.4.3Right to Reduce Commitments.
The Borrowers shall have the right at their option from time to time to reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments upon at least one Business Day’s advance notice to the Administrative Agent.  Each such permanent reduction shall be in the minimum amount of $5,000,000 and shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Bank in proportion to its Ratable Share.  Upon the effective date of each permanent reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrowers shall also prepay, with interest and with any additional compensation required under Section 5.5.2, the amount (if any) by which the Revolving Facility Usage at the time of the reduction exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments as reduced.
5.4.4Change of Lending Office.
Each Bank agrees that upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to increased costs or other special payments under Section 4.5.2 [Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available] with respect to such Bank, it will, if requested by TGI on behalf of the Borrowers, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Bank) to designate another lending office for any Loans or Letters of Credit affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Bank and its lending office suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section.  Nothing in this Section 5.4.4 shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party or the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Bank provided in this Agreement.
5.5Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances.
5.5.1Increased Costs or Reduced Return Resulting From Reserves, Capital Adequacy Requirements, Expenses, Etc.
If any change in any Law, guideline or interpretation or application thereof by any Official Body charged with the interpretation or administration thereof or compliance with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) of any central bank or other Official Body, including, without limitation, all requests, rules, guidelines or directives issued under or in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated, or implemented:


70





(i)imposes, modifies or deems applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, or assets (funded or contingent) of, deposits with or for the account of, or other acquisitions of funds by, any Bank or any lending office of any Bank or the Issuing Bank, or
(ii)subjects any of the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank as provider of the Swing Loans, the Issuing Bank or any Bank to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, or (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;
(iii)imposes on any Bank or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other conditions, cost or expenses (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Bank or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
(iv)imposes, modifies or deems applicable any capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement (A) against assets (funded or contingent) of, or letters of credit, other credits or commitments to extend credit extended by, any Bank or Issuing Bank, or (B) otherwise applicable to the obligations of any Bank or any lending office of any Bank or any Issuing Bank under this Agreement,
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank as provider of the Swing Loan, the Issuing Bank or any Bank of making, converting to, or continuing or maintaining any Loan or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan, or to increase the cost to any of them of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of sum received or receivable by, such Bank, Administrative Agent, PNC Bank or Issuing Bank, whether of principal, interest or any other amount (or, in the case of any capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement, to have the effect of reducing the rate of return on any Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s capital, taking into consideration such Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s customary policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount which such Bank or Issuing Bank in its sole discretion deems to be material, such Bank or Issuing Bank shall from time to time notify TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, and the Administrative Agent of the amount determined in good-faith (using any reasonable averaging and attribution methods) by such Bank or Issuing Bank to be necessary to compensate such Bank or Issuing Bank for such increase in cost, reduction of income or additional expense (to the extent not reflected in the determination of Base Rate).  Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination.  Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrowers to such Bank or Issuing Bank ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.  Failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank as the provider of Swing Loans, any Bank or Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall not constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s, PNC Bank’s, such Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank, a Bank or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 5.5 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Administrative Agent, PNC 


71





Bank, such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrowers of change in Law or other circumstances described above giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of the Administrative Agent, PNC Bank’s, such Bank’s or Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the change in Law or other circumstances described above giving rise to such increase costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect).
5.5.2Indemnity.
In addition to the compensation required by subsection 5.5.1 of this Section 5.5, each Borrower shall indemnify each Bank and each Issuing Bank against all liabilities, losses or expenses (including loss of margin, any loss or expense incurred in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties and any loss or expense incurred in connection with funds acquired by a Bank or Issuing Bank to fund or maintain Loans subject to the Euro-Rate Option) which such Bank or Issuing Bank actually sustains or incurs as a consequence of any:
(i)payment, prepayment, conversion or renewal of any Loan to which the Euro-Rate Option applies on a day other than the last day of the corresponding Interest Period (whether or not such payment or prepayment is mandatory, voluntary or automatic and whether or not such payment or prepayment is then due),
(ii)attempt by any Borrower to revoke (expressly, by later inconsistent notices or otherwise) in whole or part any notice relating to Loan Requests under Section 2.4 or Section 4.3 or prepayments under Section 5.4,
(iii)default by any Borrower in the performance or observance of any covenant or condition contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including any failure of the Borrowers to pay when due (by acceleration or otherwise) any principal, interest, Commitment Fee or any other amount due hereunder, or
(iv)the assignment of any Loans under the Euro-Rate Option other than on the last day of the Interest Period or maturity date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 5.4.2.
If any Bank or Issuing Bank actually sustains or incurs any such loss or expense, it shall from time to time notify TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, of the amount determined in good-faith by such Bank (which determination may include such reasonable assumptions, allocations of costs and expenses and averaging or attribution methods as such Bank or Issuing Bank shall determine) to be necessary to indemnify such Bank or Issuing Bank for such loss or expense.  Such notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for such determination.  Such amount shall be due and payable by the Borrowers to such Bank or Issuing Bank, as the case may be, ten (10) Business Days after such notice is given.


72





5.6Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.
5.6.1Currency Fluctuations; Application Among Interest Rate Options.
If on any Computation Date (i) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage is greater than the Revolving Credit Commitments, (ii) the Dollar Equivalent of Optional Currency Swing Loans shall exceed the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment, or (iii) the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit Outstanding shall exceed $100,000,000, as a result of a change in exchange rates between one (1) or more Optional Currencies and Dollars, then the Administrative Agent shall notify TGI, as agent for the Borrowers of the same.  The Borrowers shall pay or prepay the Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Loans (subject to Borrowers’ indemnity obligations under Sections 5.4 [Voluntary Prepayments] and 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances]) within one (1) Business Day after TGI receives such notice such that after giving effect to such payments or prepayments, (a) the Dollar Equivalent Revolving Facility Usage shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments, and (b) the Dollar Equivalent of Optional Currency Swing Loans shall not exceed the Optional Currency Swing Loan Commitment.  With respect to the circumstance identified in clause (iii) of the first sentence of this paragraph, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize the Letters of Credit Outstanding to the extent of the amount by which the Dollar Equivalent of Letters of Credit Outstanding exceeds $100,000,000.  All prepayments required pursuant to this Section 5.6.1 [Currency Fluctuations; Application Among Interest Rate Options] shall first be applied among the Interest Rate Options to the principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans subject to the Base Rate Option, then to Revolving Credit Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option and then to Optional Currency Swing Loans subject to the Euro-Rate Option.  In accordance with Section 5.5.2 [Indemnity], each Borrower shall indemnify the Banks for any loss or expense, including loss of margin, incurred with respect to any such prepayments applied against Loans subject to a Euro-Rate Option on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period.
5.6.2Mandatory Prepayments.
The Borrowers shall prepay the Loans and/or permanently reduce the Commitments, in accordance with, and subject to the limitations in, Section 5.6.3, in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Proceeds received from any issuance or incurrence of Permitted Indebtedness (other than any Permitted Refinancing Debt) (each, a “Mandatory Prepayment”).  Such Mandatory Prepayment shall be made no later than five (5) Business Days following any such issuance or incurrence of Permitted Indebtedness.
5.6.3Application of Mandatory Prepayments, Commitment Reductions.
(i)All Mandatory Prepayments and all prepayments required under Section 8.2.7(v) shall be applied first to prepay the Term Loans until such time that the Term Loans have been paid in full.  All prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to this clause (i) shall be applied to the unpaid installments of principal of the Term Loans in inverse order according to the priority thereof.
(ii)Upon payment in full of the Term Loans, the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanently reduced by an amount equal to (i) the amount of any 


73





Mandatory Prepayment required under Section 5.6.2 or prepayment required under Section 8.2.7(v), as applicable, minus (ii) the amount of such Mandatory Prepayment or prepayment required under Section 8.2.7(v), as applicable, that was applied to prepay the Term Loans, until such time that the Revolving Credit Commitments have been  permanently reduced to $800,000,000.00.  Borrowers shall prepay, with interest and with any additional compensation required under Section 5.5.2, the amount (if any) by which the Revolving Facility Usage at the time of any such reduction exceeds the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments as reduced.  Each reduction to the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this clause (ii) shall reduce the Revolving Credit Commitment of each Bank in proportion to its Ratable Share and all prepayments of Revolving Credit Loans pursuant to this clause (ii) shall be applied to the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of each Bank in proportion to its Ratable Share.
(iii)Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.6.3 to the contrary, no prepayment of Term Loans or permanent reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be required after such time that the Term Loans outstanding as of the Ninth Amendment Effective date have been paid in full, and the Revolving Credit Commitments are first reduced to $800,000,000.00 following the Ninth Amendment Effective Date.
5.7Interbank Market Presumption.
For all purposes of this Agreement and each Note with respect to any aspects of the Euro-Rate, any Loan under the Euro-Rate Option or any Optional Currency, each Bank and the Administrative Agent shall be presumed to have obtained rates, funding, currencies, deposits, and the like in the applicable interbank market regardless whether it did so or not; and, each Bank’s and the Administrative Agent’s determination of amounts payable under, and actions required or authorized by, Sections 4.5 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable] and 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] shall be calculated, at each Bank’s and the Administrative Agent’s option, as though each Bank and the Administrative Agent funded its each Borrowing Tranche of Loans under the Euro-Rate Option through the purchase of deposits of the types and maturities corresponding to the deposits used as a reference in accordance with the terms hereof in determining the Euro-Rate applicable to such Loans, whether in fact that is the case.
5.8Taxes.
For purposes of this Section, the term “Bank” includes any Issuing Bank and PNC Bank as provider of the Swing Loans.
5.8.1Payments Free of Taxes.
Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without reduction 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 Official Body in accordance with 


74





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 5.8 [Taxes]) the applicable Bank, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
5.8.2Payment of Other Taxes by the Loan Parties.
The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Official Body in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
5.8.3Indemnification by the Loan Parties.
The Loan Parties shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Bank, within ten (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 5.8 [Taxes]) payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Bank, as the case may be, or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Bank, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Official Body.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Bank (with copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
5.8.4Indemnification by the Banks.
Each Bank shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Bank (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Bank’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.11.4 [Participations] relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Bank, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative 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 Official Body.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Bank by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  Each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Bank under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Bank from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 5.8.4 [Indemnification by the Banks].


75





5.8.5Evidence of Payments.
As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Loan Parties to an Official Body, the Loan Parties (or any one of them) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Official Body evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
5.8.6Status of Banks.
(i)Any Bank that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, any Bank, if requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Bank 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 (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.8.6(ii)(a), (ii)(b) and (ii)(d) below) shall not be required if in the Bank’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Bank.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is resident for tax purposes in the United States of America:
(a)any Bank that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Bank becomes a Bank hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), properly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Bank is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(b)any Foreign Bank, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (A) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or 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 (B) with 


76





respect to any other applicable payment under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)in the case of a Foreign Bank claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.8.6(A) to the effect that such Foreign Bank is not (i) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (ii) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (iii) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) duly completed and executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, or
(4)to the extent a Foreign Bank is not the beneficial owner, properly executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.8.6(B) or Exhibit 5.8.6(C), IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Bank is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Bank are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Bank may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit 5.8.6(D) on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(c)any Foreign Bank shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Bank becomes a Bank under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed copies 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 Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(d)if a payment made to a Bank under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Bank were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Bank shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative 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 Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Bank has complied with such Bank’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from 


77





such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Bank 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 Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
5.8.7Refund.
If any party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund in respect of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.8 [Taxes], (including by payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.8 [Taxes]), 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 5.8 [Taxes] with respect to the Taxes (including without limitation Other Taxes) giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Official Body with respect to such refund or credit).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 5.8.8 (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Official Body) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund or credit to such Official Body.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.8.7, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.8.7, 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 indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund or credit 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 which it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
5.8.8Survival.

The relevant Borrower and such Bank shall each provide all reasonable information and assistance to the Internal Revenue Service and Inland Revenue on a timely basis in order efficiently to process the relevant treaty claim, and shall keep each other (through the Administrative Agent) informed of any matters relating to such claim, including such Borrower providing a copy of any direction (or other authority) issued by the HM Revenue & Customs authorizing such Borrower to pay free and clear of any withholding on account of United Kingdom income tax and of any cancellation thereof.
5.9Judgment Currency.
5.9.1Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments.
If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under a Note in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures each Bank could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

8.1.5Maintenance of Patents, Trademarks, Etc.
Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, maintain in full force and effect all patents, trademarks, trade names, copyrights, licenses, franchises, permits,

10.2Delegation of Duties.
The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties hereunder by or through agents or employees (provided such delegation does not constitute a relinquishment of its duties as Administrative Agent) and, subject to Sections 10.5 and 10.6, shall be entitled to engage and pay for the advice or services of any attorneys, accountants or other experts concerning all matters pertaining to its duties hereunder and to rely upon any advice so obtained.

121





Bank; and nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement except as expressly set forth herein.  Each Bank expressly acknowledges (i) that the Administrative Agent has not made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by the Administrative Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of any Borrower, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent to any Bank; (ii) that it has made and will continue to make, without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs and its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrowers in connection with this Agreement and the making and continuance of the Loans hereunder; and (iii) except as expressly provided herein, that the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Bank with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making of any Loan or at any time or times thereafter.

123





in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent hereunder or thereunder, provided that no Bank shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (a) if the same results from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (b) if such Bank was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that such Bank shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Bank), or (c) if the same results from a compromise and settlement agreement entered into without the consent of such Bank, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  In addition, each Bank agrees promptly upon demand to reimburse the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers and without limiting the Obligation of the Borrowers to do so) in proportion to its Ratable Share for all amounts due and payable by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent in connection with the Administrative Agent’s periodic audit of any Borrower’s books, records and business properties.
10.8Reliance by Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any writing, telegram, telex or teletype message, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, letter, cablegram, statement, order or other document or conversation by telephone or otherwise believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon the advice and opinions of counsel and other professional advisers selected by the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action hereunder unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Banks against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.
10.9Notice of Default.
The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Potential Default or Event of Default unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Bank or TGI referring to this Agreement, describing such Potential Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”
10.10Notices.
The Administrative Agent shall promptly send to each Bank a copy of all notices received from TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents promptly upon receipt thereof.

10.11Banks in Their Individual Capacities.
With respect to its Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Credit Loans made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Bank and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and the term “Banks” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity.  PNC Bank and its Affiliates and each of the Banks and their respective Affiliates may, 


124





without liability to account, except as prohibited herein, make loans to, accept deposits from, discount drafts for, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of banking or trust business with, any Borrower and their Affiliates, in the case of the Administrative Agent, as though it were not acting as Administrative Agent hereunder and in the case of each Bank, as though such Bank were not a Bank hereunder.
10.12Disqualified Institutions.
The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Bank or Participant or prospective Bank or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.  Upon request by any Bank to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall provide such Bank with a copy of the notices setting forth the Disqualified Institutions.
10.13Equalization of Banks.
The Banks and the holders of any participations in any Notes agree among themselves that, with respect to all amounts received by any Bank or any such holder for application on any Obligation hereunder or under any Note or under any such participation, whether received by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of set-off or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or by any other non-pro rata source, equitable adjustment will be made in the manner stated in the following sentence so that, in effect, all such excess amounts will be shared ratably among the Banks and such holders in proportion to their interests in payments under the Notes, except as otherwise provided in Sections 4.5.2, 5.4.2, or 5.5.1.  The Banks or any such holder receiving any such amount shall purchase for cash from each of the other Banks an interest in such Bank’s Loans in such amount as shall result in a ratable participation by the Banks and each such holder in the aggregate unpaid amount under the Notes, provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from the Bank or the holder making such purchase, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, together with interest or other amounts, if any, required by law (including court order) to be paid by the Bank or the holder making such purchase.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no payments received from a Foreign Borrower shall be used to satisfy obligations of a Domestic Borrower.
10.14Successor Administrative Agent.
The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent by giving not less than thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to TGI, as agent for the Borrowers.  If the Administrative Agent shall resign under this Agreement, then either (a) the Required Banks shall appoint from among the Banks a successor agent for the Banks, subject (provided that there does not exist an Event of Default) to the consent of TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, or (b) if a successor agent shall not be so appointed and approved within the thirty (30) day period following the Administrative Agent’s notice to the Banks of its 


125





resignation, then the Administrative Agent shall appoint, with the consent of TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, a successor agent who shall serve as Administrative Agent until such time as the Required Banks appoint and TGI, as agent for the Borrowers consents to the appointment of a successor agent; provided that, in either case, in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Bank or Disqualified Institution.  Upon its appointment pursuant to either clause (a) or (b) above, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent, effective upon its appointment, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent (and as Funding Bank) shall be terminated without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement.  After the resignation of any Administrative Agent hereunder, the provisions of this Article 9 shall inure to the benefit of such former Administrative Agent and such former Administrative Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released from liability for any actions taken or not taken by it while it was an Administrative Agent under this Agreement.
10.15Administrative Agent’s Fee.
The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent a nonrefundable fee (the “Administrative Agent’s Fee”) under the terms of a letter (the “Administrative Agent’s Letter”) between TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, and Administrative Agent, as amended from time to time.
10.16Availability of Funds.
Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by a Bank prior to the date and time upon which a Loan is to be made that such Bank does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank’s portion of such Loan, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made or will make such proceeds available to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption (but shall not be required to), make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount in the applicable currency.  If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Bank in the applicable currency, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Bank (or, if such Bank fails to pay such amount forthwith upon such demand from TGI, as agent for the Borrowers) together with interest thereon, in respect of each day during the period commencing on the date such amount was made available to the Borrowers and ending on the date the Administrative Agent recovers such amount, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable interest rate in respect of the Loan.
10.17Calculations.
In the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any error in computing the amount payable to any Bank or Issuing Bank whether in respect of the Loans, fees or any other amounts due to the Banks or Issuing Banks under this Agreement.  In the event an error in computing any amount payable to any Bank is made, the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and each affected Bank shall, forthwith upon 


126





discovery of such error, make such adjustments as shall be required to correct such error, and any compensation therefor will be calculated at the Federal Funds Effective Rate.
10.18No Reliance on Administrative Agent’s Customer Identification Program.
Each Bank and Issuing Bank acknowledges and agrees that neither such Bank, Issuing Bank, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on the Administrative Agent to carry out such Bank’s, Issuing Bank’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other obligations required or imposed under or pursuant to the USA Patriot Act or the regulations thereunder, including the regulations contained in 31 CFR 103.121 (as hereafter amended or replaced, the “CIP Regulations”), or any other Anti-Terrorism Law, including any programs involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures, (2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or such other Laws.
10.19Beneficiaries.
Except as expressly provided herein, the provisions of this Article 9 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Banks, and the Borrowers shall not have any rights to rely on or enforce any of the provisions hereof.  In performing its functions and duties under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall act solely as agent of the Banks and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation toward or relationship of agency or trust with or for any Borrower.
10.20Authorization to Release Collateral and Guarantors.
In the event that any Loan Party conveys, sells, leases, assigns, transfers or otherwise disposes of all or any portion of any of the Capital Stock or assets of any Subsidiary to a person that is not (and is not required to become) a Domestic Loan Party in a transaction permitted under Section 8.2.4(viii), Section 8.2.7 [Disposition of Assets] or 8.2.6 [Liquidations, Mergers, Consolidations, Acquisitions], any Liens created by any Loan Document on such Capital Stock or assets so disposed of shall be automatically released and the Administrative Agent shall promptly (and the Banks hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute any such documents as may be reasonably requested by TGI (and at TGI’s expense) to release (or release or subordinate on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent in the case of the sale and leaseback of equipment, provided the Loan Parties are in compliance with Section 8.2.1(i)(g)) any Liens created by any Loan Document on such Capital Stock or assets so disposed of, and, in the case of a disposition of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary Loan Party in a transaction permitted by Sections 8.2.7 [Disposition of Assets or Subsidiaries] and 8.2.6 [Liquidations, Mergers, Consolidations, Acquisitions] and as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party would cease to be a Subsidiary, such Subsidiary Loan Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative Agent shall promptly (and each Bank hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to) take such action and execute such documents as may be reasonably requested by TGI (at TGI’s expense) to terminate such Subsidiary Loan Party’s obligations under the Loan Documents.  In addition, the Administrative 


127





Agent agrees to take such actions as are reasonably requested by TGI and at TGI’s expense to terminate the Liens and security interests created by the Loan Documents when all the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification Obligations and Obligations under Hedge Liabilities, Foreign Currency Hedge Liabilities and Other Bank Provided Financial Service Products) are Paid In Full and all Letters of Credit and Commitments are terminated.

129





the payment of all reasonable and actual out-of-pocket costs, expenses and disbursements (including fees and expenses of outside counsel for each Bank except with respect to (a) and (b) below), incurred by such Bank (a) in connection with the administration and interpretation of this Agreement, and other instruments and documents to be delivered hereunder, (b) relating to any amendments, waivers or consents pursuant to the provisions hereof, (c) in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or collection of amounts due hereunder or thereunder or the proof and allowability of any claim arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in bankruptcy or receivership proceedings or otherwise, and (d) in any workout, restructuring or in connection with the protection, preservation, exercise or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or of any rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any foreclosure, collection or bankruptcy proceedings, or (ii) all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Bank, in its capacity as such, in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by such Bank hereunder or thereunder, provided that the Borrowers shall not be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (A) if the same results from such Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, or (B) if TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, was not given notice of the subject claim and the opportunity to participate in the defense thereof, at its expense (except that the Borrowers shall remain liable to the extent such failure to give notice does not result in a loss to the Borrowers), or (C) if the same results from a compromise or settlement agreement entered into without the consent of TGI, as agent for the Borrowers, which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Banks will attempt to minimize the fees and expenses of legal counsel for the Banks which are subject to reimbursement by the Borrowers hereunder by considering the usage of one law firm to represent the Banks and the Administrative Agent if appropriate under the circumstances.  The Borrowers agree unconditionally to pay all stamp, document, transfer, recording or filing taxes or fees and similar impositions now or hereafter determined by the Administrative Agent or any Bank to be payable in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the Borrowers agree unconditionally to save the Administrative Agent and the Banks harmless from and against any and all present or future claims, liabilities or losses with respect to or resulting from any omission to pay or delay in paying any such taxes, fees or impositions.  To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan party shall assert, and each Loan party hereby waives, any claim against any Bank, on the 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 Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.  The indemnifications set forth herein shall be in addition to the indemnifications elsewhere set forth in this Agreement.  The provisions of this Section shall survive and continue after repayment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.
11.4Holidays.
Whenever payment of a Loan to be made or taken hereunder shall be due on a day which is not a Business Day such payment shall be due on the next Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fee, except that the Loans shall be due on the 


130





Business Day preceding the Expiration Date if the Expiration Date is not a Business Day.  Whenever any payment or action to be made or taken hereunder (other than payment of the Loans) shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a business Day, such payment or action shall be made or taken on the next following Business Day (except as provided in Section 4.3 with respect to Interest Periods under the Euro-Rate Option), and such extension of time shall not be included in computing interest or fees, if any, in connection with such payment or action.
11.5Funding by Branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate.
11.5.1Notional Funding.
Each Bank shall have the right from time to time, without notice to any Borrower, to deem any branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate (which for the purposes of this Section 11.5 shall mean any corporation or association which is directly or indirectly controlled by or is under direct or indirect common control with any corporation or association which directly or indirectly controls such Bank) of such Bank to have made, maintained or funded any Loan to which the Euro-Rate Option applies at any time, provided that immediately following (on the assumption that a payment were then due from the Borrowers to such other office), and as a result of such change, the Borrowers would not be under any greater financial obligation pursuant to Section 5.5 than they would have been in the absence of such change.  Notional funding offices may be selected by each Bank without regard to the Bank’s actual methods of making, maintaining or funding the Loans or any sources of funding actually used by or available to such Bank.
11.5.2Actual Funding.
Each Bank shall have the right from time to time to make or maintain any Loan by arranging for a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Bank to make or maintain such Loan subject to the last sentence of this Section 11.5.2.  If any Bank causes a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder, all terms and conditions of this Agreement shall, except where the context clearly requires otherwise, be applicable to such part of the Loans to the same extent as if such Loans were made or maintained by such Bank, but in no event shall any Bank’s use of such a branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to make or maintain any part of the Loans hereunder cause such Bank or such branch, Subsidiary or Affiliate to incur any cost or expenses payable by the Borrowers hereunder or require the Borrowers to pay any other compensation to any Bank which would otherwise not be incurred.
11.6Notices.
Any notice, request, demand, direction or other communication (for purposes of this Section 11.6 only, a “Notice”) to be given to or made upon any party hereto under any provision of this Agreement shall be given or made by telephone or in writing (which includes means of electronic transmission (i.e., “e-mail”) or facsimile transmission or by setting forth such Notice on a site on the World Wide Web (a “Website Posting”) if Notice of such Website Posting (including the information necessary to access such site) has previously been delivered to the applicable parties hereto by another means set forth in this Section 11.6) in accordance with this Section 11.6.

11.7Severability.
The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be severable.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, such provision shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without in any manner affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other jurisdiction or the remaining provisions hereof in any jurisdiction.
11.8Governing Law.

(i)Minimum Amounts.
(A)in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Bank’s Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Bank, an Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(ii)Proportionate Amounts.
Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Revolving Credit Commitment assigned.

The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, together with a processing and recordation fee

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 11.11.3 [Register], from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption Agreement, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Bank under this Agreement, and the assigning Bank thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement covering all of the assigning Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Bank shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.5 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable; Illegality; Increased Costs; Deposits Not Available], Section 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances], Section 5.8 [Taxes] and Section 11.3 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Bank by the Borrower; Taxes] with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment.  Any assignment or transfer by a Bank of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 11.11.2 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Bank of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 11.11.4 [Participations].
11.11.3Register.
The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a record of the names and addresses of the Banks, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Loans (and stated interest) owing to, each Bank pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time.  Such register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Banks may treat each Person whose name is in such register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.  Such register shall be available for inspection by the 


135





Borrowers and any Bank, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a Note or any other Loan Document, the Loans and any other Obligations are registered obligations and the right, title and interest of any Bank or Issuing Bank and its assignees in and to such Loans or Obligations shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the register.  This Section 11.11.3 shall be construed so that the Loans and other Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or such regulations).
11.11.4Participations.
Any Bank may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than (a) a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, (b) the Borrowers or any of the Borrowers’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (c) any Disqualified Institution, (d) any Defaulting Bank or any of its Subsidiaries or (e) a Bank, Affiliate of a Bank or an Approved Fund that, in each case at the time of such participation, is a Sanctioned Person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Bank’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Bank’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such Bank’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.
Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Bank sells such a participation shall provide that such Bank 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 Bank will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree (other than as is already provided for herein) to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to Section 11.1.1 [Increase of Commitment; Extension of Expiration Date], Section 11.1.2 [Extension of Payment; Reduction of Principal Interest or Fees; Modification of Terms of Payment], or Section 11.1.4 [Release of Collateral or Guarantor] that affects such Participant.  Subject to Section 11.11.5 [Limitations upon Participant Rights Successors and Assigns Generally], the Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.5 [Euro-Rate Unascertainable] Section 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] to the same extent as if it were a Bank and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 11.11.2 [Assignments by Banks], Section 5.8 [Taxes] and Section 11.3 [Reimbursement and Indemnification of Banks by the Borrower; Taxes], provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.4.2 [Replacement of a Bank] as if it were an assignee under Section 11.11.2 [Assignments by Banks]; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 5.5 [Additional Compensation in Certain Circumstances] or 5.8 [Taxes], with respect to any participation, than its participating Bank 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 Bank that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrowers’ request and expense, 


136





to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrowers to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.4.2 [Replacement of a Bank] with respect to any Participant.  To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.2.3 as though it were a Bank; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.2 [Pro-Rata Treatment of Banks] as though it were a Bank.  Each Bank that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, 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 Bank shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any 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 Bank 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.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, a Note or any other Loan Document, the right, title and interest of any Participant and its assignees in the Loans or other Obligations shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Participant Register.  This Section 11.11.4 shall be construed so that the Loans and other Obligations (and the participations sold therein) are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or such regulations).

(i)Each Domestic Material Subsidiary acquired, formed or in existence after the Closing Date shall be required to, and, each Foreign Subsidiary upon electing to do so may, become a Borrower or a Guarantor hereunder, and the Borrowers and the Guarantors shall complete all of the following steps in clauses (a) and (b) below within thirty (30) days (unless such time period is extended in writing by the Administrative Agent) after the date of organization or acquisition of (or in the case of a Foreign Subsidiary, election by) such Subsidiary: (a) cause such Person to sign and join in this Agreement or the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement by execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent of one or more counterparts of a Joinder hereto in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 11.20(A) or Exhibit 11.20(B) (each, as the case may be, a “Borrower Joinder” or “Guarantor Joinder”), appropriately dated, (b) deliver to the Administrative Agent all certificates and other documents referred to in Section 7 of this Agreement and such Borrower Joinder or Guarantor Joinder and (c) deliver to the Administrative Agent documents necessary to grant and perfect Prior Security Interests to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Banks in all Pledged Collateral held by the owners of such Subsidiary if it is a Foreign Subsidiary owned directly by a Domestic Loan Party. The Borrowers covenant and agree to cause all Domestic Material Subsidiaries to comply with the terms of this Section 11.20(i).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, each new Borrower shall not be permitted to borrow under this Agreement until the following number of Business Days has elapsed after a fully executed Borrower Joinder has been delivered to the Banks: (i) five (5) with respect to a Domestic Borrower and (ii) ten (10) with respect to a Foreign Borrower.

140





be limited to the principal amount advanced directly to such Foreign Borrower or its Subsidiaries and reimbursement of draws under Letters of Credit issued for the account of such Foreign Borrower or its Subsidiaries and, in each case, interest and/or fees thereon.

(iv)Any Foreign Borrower may from time to time deliver a termination notice to the Administrative Agent requesting that it no longer be a party hereto.  Such termination shall be effective two (2) Business Days after receipt by the Administrative Agent so long as all Obligations of such Foreign Borrower hereunder have been Paid In Full (including principal, interest and other amounts) and no Letter of Credit issued for the account or benefit of such Foreign Borrower or its Subsidiaries is outstanding; provided that, to the extent this Agreement provides for the survival of certain provisions upon termination hereof, such surviving provisions shall survive a termination under this subsection with respect to any such Foreign Borrower. Following receipt of such notice, no further Loans may be borrowed by, or Letters of Credit issued for the account of, such Foreign Borrower or its Subsidiaries hereunder, unless such Foreign Borrower shall thereafter rejoin this Agreement as a Borrower pursuant to the joinder provisions of this Section 11.20.
(v)For purposes of determining Loans outstanding for the benefit of a Foreign Borrower and its Subsidiaries, principal payments received hereunder shall be applied first to Obligations of Domestic Borrowers, unless (a) such payments are made directly by a Foreign Borrower (in which case such payments shall first be applied to Obligations of the Foreign Borrower making such payment) or (b) TGI designates at the time such payment is made that such payment is applicable to the Obligations of an identified Foreign Borrower and certifies that the funds for such payment were received from such Foreign Borrower.
(vi)Subject to the limitation of liability of Foreign Borrowers as expressly set forth in this Section 11.20, all Obligations of the Borrowers and Guarantors are joint and several, except that no Foreign Guarantor shall have any liability with respect to any Obligation of a Domestic Loan Party.
(vii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein no Bank shall be obligated to make a Loan to a Foreign Borrower if any Bank shall be prohibited under applicable Law or shall not be licensed to make Loans or extend credit to such Foreign Borrower; provided that if any such Bank is so prohibited, the Borrowers shall have the right to replace such Bank under Section 5.4.2 hereof.  Each Bank agrees to notify the Administrative Agent and TGI in writing promptly upon knowledge that it is so prohibited from making Loans or extending credit to any Foreign Borrower.
(viii)Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, no Foreign Subsidiary shall become a “Borrower” hereunder without the written consent of each Bank.  In addition to the foregoing, prior to any Foreign Subsidiary being a Borrower hereunder, (A) the Administrative Agent shall have received on behalf of the Banks such supporting 


141





resolutions, incumbency certificates, legal opinions and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent or the Banks in their sole discretion, (B) the Banks shall have received satisfactory documentation and information required by regulatory authorities under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the USA Patriot Act, (C) each Bank shall have met all necessary regulatory and licensing requirements and internal policy requirements and shall be legally permitted to make loans in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Borrower is organized and (D) lending to such Foreign Borrower will not cause any administrative or operational issues for any Bank.
11.21USA Patriot Act.
Each Bank or assignee or participant of a Bank that is not incorporated under the Laws of the United States of America or a state thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United states or foreign county, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Bank is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA Patriot Act and the applicable regulations: (1) within 10 days after the Closing Date, and (2) as such other times as are required under the USA Patriot Act.

The Administrative Agent is authorized and directed to enter into on behalf of the Banks the Collateral Agency Agreement and any future subordination agreements (pursuant to which the Banks will subordinate their Liens) with respect to Purchase Money Security Interest which are Permitted Liens and are permitted Indebtedness under Section 8.2.1(i)(g), and each of the Banks hereby approves and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Collateral Agency Agreement and any such subordination agreement which has been approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.
11.23Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(i)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and
(ii)the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:


142





(a)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(b)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or
(c)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.
11.24Amendment and Restatement, Ratification, No Novation.
This Agreement amends and restates in its entirety the Original Credit Agreement, and the Loan Parties confirm that:  the Original Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Collateral for the Obligations thereunder (as all such capitalized terms are defined in the Original Credit Agreement) have at all times, since the date of the execution and delivery of such documents, remained in full force and effect and, where applicable, continue to guaranty and secure such obligations which are continued as the Obligations hereunder as amended hereby.  The Loans hereunder are a continuation of the Loans under (and as such term is defined in) the Original Credit Agreement.  The Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Banks acknowledge and agree that the amendment and restatement of the Original Credit Agreement and any Loan Documents expressly amended by this Agreement are not intended to constitute, nor do they constitute, a novation, interruption, suspension of continuity, satisfaction, discharge or termination of the obligations, loans, liabilities, or indebtedness under the Original Credit Agreement and other Loan Documents thereunder or the collateral security therefor, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are entitled to all rights and benefits originally pertaining to the Original Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (as such term is defined therein).  The Loan Parties ratify and reaffirm the Intercompany Subordination Agreement, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Collateral Agency Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and with respect to the Notes, as amended and restated in connection with this Agreement) executed and delivered in connection with the Original Credit Agreement, and agree that the terms thereof remain in full force and effect with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations and the Loan Documents notwithstanding any amendments to the Original Credit Agreement made by virtue of this Agreement.

	All prices are expressed in basis points per annum; basis points in “Euro-Rate” and “Base Rate” rows represent margins added to those rates in computing the interest rate(s) payable on the Revolving Credit Loans.  Pricing levels are determined quarterly on the basis of the Total Leverage Ratio set forth in the compliance certificates submitted under Section 8.3.3.  which shall be on a pro forma basis to take into account acquisitions made during such quarter, as more specifically described in Section 8.2.6(ii) and the requirements set forth in the definition of Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA.  Changes in pricing levels will become effective on the date such compliance certificate is due to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.3.3, except that any changes in pricing levels relating to outstanding Borrowing Tranches of Loans in an Optional Currency shall be effective upon the expiration of the current Interest Period with respect to such Borrowing Tranches.

	(3)
	If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of TGI or for any other reason, the Borrowers or the Banks determine that (i) the Total Leverage Ratio as calculated by the Borrowers as of any applicable date was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Leverage Ratio would have resulted in higher pricing for such period, the Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Banks, promptly on demand by the Administrative Agent (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to any Borrower under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Bank or the Administrative Agent, as Letter of Credit issuer), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not limit the rights of Administrative Agent, any Bank or the Administrative Agent, as Letter of Credit issuer, as the case may be, under Sections 2.8 [Letter of Credit Subfacility] or 4.4 [Interest After Default] or 9 [Default].  The Borrowers’ obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayments of all other Obligations hereunder.


		
	(4)
	Notwithstanding anything in this Schedule to the contrary, if Consolidated Adjusted EBITDA is zero or negative, pricing shall not be lower than Level VI.

	Notwithstanding anything hereinabove in this Schedule to the contrary, if TGI and its Subsidiaries are at any time rated below Ba3/BB- or equivalent by both S&P and Moody’s, pricing shall not be lower than Level VI until the time that such rating is upgraded to at least Ba3/BB- or equivalent by either agency.  If the rating system of one of S&P or Moody’s shall change, or if one of such rating agencies shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, TGI and the Banks shall negotiate in good faith to amend this provision to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation shall apply.
