SECTION 2
 AMOUNT AND TERMS OF COMMITMENTS

 

2.1                               Promise to Pay.  U.S. Borrowers hereby jointly, severally and unconditionally promise to pay Lender the outstanding principal amount of all Revolving Loans and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.  Non-U.S. Borrowers hereby jointly, severally and unconditionally promise to pay Lender the outstanding principal amount of all Non-U.S. Revolving Loans and accrued and unpaid interest thereon as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

 

2.2                               Reserved.

 

2.3                               Reserved.

 

2.4                               Revolving Commitments.

 

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender severally agrees to make revolving credit loans (each, a “Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Revolving Loans”) to the Borrowers from time to time during the Revolving Commitment Period in an aggregate principal amount with respect to all such Revolving Loans at any one time outstanding which, when added to the aggregate outstanding amount of any Revolving Loans, the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit, and the aggregate amount of all L/C Disbursements that have not yet been reimbursed or converted into Revolving Loans, incurred on behalf of the Borrowers and owing to Lender, does not exceed the amount of the Revolving Commitment.  The Revolving Loans may be advances to a U.S. Borrower (“U.S. Revolving Loans”), or advances to a Non-U.S. Borrower (“Non-U.S. Revolving Loans”).  In addition the Total U.S. Revolving Extensions of Credit shall not exceed the lesser of (i) the Revolving Commitment outstanding at such time and (ii) the U.S. Revolving Loan Sublimit in effect at such time. During the Revolving Commitment Period the Borrowers may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.  The Revolving Loans may from time to time be Eurodollar Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrowers and notified to Lender in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.11.

 

(b)                                 The Borrowers shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date.

 

2.5                               Procedure for Revolving Loan Borrowing.  The Borrowers may borrow up to the Available Revolving Commitment during the Revolving Commitment Period on any Business Day; provided that the Borrowers shall give Lender an irrevocable Notice of Borrowing (which must be received by Lender prior to 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, (a) three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of ABR Loans (in each case, with originals to follow within three Business Days)) (provided that any such Notice of Borrowing of ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility to finance payments under Section 3.5(a) may be given not later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on the date of the proposed borrowing), in each such case specifying (i) the amount and Type of Revolving Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested

 

34











 

Borrowing Date, (iii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the respective amounts of each such Type of Loan and the respective lengths of the initial Interest Period therefor, and (iv) instructions for remittance of the proceeds of the applicable Loans to be borrowed.  Each borrowing under the Revolving Commitments shall be in an amount equal to in the case of ABR Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Commitment is less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount).  Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by Lender crediting such account as is designated in writing to Lender by the Borrower.

 

2.6                               Reserved.

 

2.7                               U.S. Overadvances.  If at any time or for any reason the amount of the Total U.S. Revolving Extensions of Credit exceeds the lesser of (x) the amount of the Revolving Commitments then in effect and (y) the U.S. Revolving Loan Sublimit then in effect (any such excess, a “U.S. Overadvance”), the U.S. Borrowers shall immediately pay the full amount of such U.S. Overadvance to Lender without notice or demand for application against the Obligations in accordance with the terms hereof; provided that any such repayment of a U.S. Overadvance shall be applied by Lender first to repay prepayment of any U.S. Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans and thereafter to U.S. Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Loans.  Any prepayment of any U.S. Revolving Loan that is a Eurodollar Loan hereunder shall be subject to U.S. Borrowers’ obligations to pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19.

 

2.8                               Fees.

 

(a)                                 Fees.  On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrowers agree to pay to Lender an upfront fee in the amount of $90,000.

 

(b)                                 Commitment Fee.  As additional compensation for the Commitments, the Borrowers shall pay to Lender a fee for the Borrowers’ non-use of available funds under the Revolving Facility (the “Commitment Fee”), payable quarterly in arrears on October 1, 2014 and on the first day of each calendar quarter occurring thereafter prior to the Revolving Termination Date, and on the Revolving Termination Date, in each case as applicable and in an amount equal to the Applicable Margin under the heading “Commitment Fee” multiplied by the average unused portion of the Revolving Commitment as reasonably determined by Lender.  The unused portion of the Revolving Commitment, for purposes of this calculation, shall equal the difference between (i) the Revolving Commitment (as reduced from time to time), and (ii) the sum of (A) the average for the period of the daily closing balance of the Revolving Loans outstanding, (B) the aggregate undrawn amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time, and (C) the aggregate amount of all L/C Disbursements that have not yet been reimbursed or converted into Revolving Loans at such time.

 

(c)                                  Fees Nonrefundable.  All fees payable under this Section 2.8 shall be fully earned on the date paid and nonrefundable.

 

2.9                               Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments.

 

(a)                                 Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitment.  The Borrowers shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ written notice delivered to Lender,

 

35











 

to terminate the Revolving Commitment or from time to time to reduce the amount of the Revolving Commitment; provided that no such termination or reduction shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Loans to be made on the effective date thereof the amount of the Revolving Extensions of Credit then outstanding would exceed the Revolving Commitment then in effect.  Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Commitments then in effect; provided that, if in connection with any such reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19.  All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the Revolving Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 

(b)                                 Termination or Reduction of L/C Commitment.  The Borrowers shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ written notice delivered to Lender, to terminate the L/C Commitment available to the Borrowers or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the L/C Commitment available to the Borrowers; provided that, in any such case, no such termination or reduction of the L/C Commitment shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto, the L/C Commitment shall be reduced to an amount that would result in the aggregate L/C Exposure exceeding the L/C Commitment (as so reduced).  Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple in excess thereof, and shall reduce permanently the L/C Commitment then in effect.  All fees accrued until the effective date of any termination of the L/C Commitment shall be paid on the effective date of such termination.

 

2.10                        Loan Prepayments.  The Borrowers may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to Lender no later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, and no later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, one Business Day prior thereto, in the case of ABR Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of the proposed prepayment; provided that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrowers shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.19; provided, further, that if such notice of prepayment indicates that such prepayment is to be funded with the proceeds of a refinancing, such notice of prepayment may be revoked if the financing is not consummated.  If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Loans that are ABR Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.  Partial prepayments of Revolving Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple thereof.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in any Loan Document to the contrary and subject to the terms of the Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, if any Borrower is obligated to make a prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Term Loan Documents (each a “Term Loan Mandatory Prepayment”), (a) such Borrower shall obtain the written consent of Lender in advance of making such Term Loan Mandatory Prepayment and (b) each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender, in its sole and absolute discretion, may require such Borrower to pay to Lender the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan Mandatory Prepayment for application to the Obligations and the Term Loan in the following order: (i) first, to the payment of the Obligations, (ii) second, to Cash Collateralize that portion of the L/C

 

36











 

Exposure comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.10 and (iii) last, the balance, if any, after application pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, to the Term Loan Agent for application to the Term Loan Mandatory Prepayment pursuant to the terms of the Term Loan Documents.

 

2.11                        Conversion and Continuation Options.

 

(a)                                 The Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to ABR Loans by giving Lender prior irrevocable notice in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on the Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date; provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  Subject to Section 2.15, the Borrowers may elect from time to time to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving Lender prior irrevocable notice in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation of such election no later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on the third Business Day preceding the proposed conversion date (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor); provided that no ABR Loan may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

(b)                                 Subject to Section 2.15, any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrowers giving irrevocable notice in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Lender by no later than 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on the date occurring three Business Days preceding the proposed continuation date and otherwise in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans; provided that no Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further that if the Borrowers shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso, such Loans shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period; provided however, that if the Borrowers so notify Lender, if no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Eurodollar Loans may be continued automatically at the end of any Interest Period for successive one month Interest Periods.

 

2.12                        Limitations on Eurodollar Tranches.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof, and (b) no more than three Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

 

2.13                        Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

 

(a)                                 Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Eurodollar Rate determined for such Interest Period plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.

 

37











 

(b)                                 Each ABR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the ABR plus (ii) the Applicable Margin.

 

(c)                                  During the continuance of an Event of Default, at Lender’s option, all Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.00% (the “Default Rate”).

 

(d)                                 Interest on the outstanding principal amount of each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.13(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

 

2.14                        Computation of Interest and Fees.

 

(a)                                 Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to ABR Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed.  Lender shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate.  Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective.  Lender shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrowers of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

 

(b)                                 Each determination of an interest rate by Lender pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers in the absence of manifest error.  Lender shall, at the request of the Borrowers, deliver to the Borrowers a statement showing the quotations used by Lender in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.14(a).

 

2.15                        Inability to Determine Interest Rate.  If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrowers) in connection with any request for a Eurodollar Loan or a conversion to or a continuation thereof that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, (a) Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such requested Loan or conversion or continuation, as applicable, (b) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or (c) the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lender (as conclusively certified by Lender) of making or maintaining Loans during such Interest Period, then, in any such case of (a), (b) or (c), Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers thereof as soon as practicable thereafter.  Any such determination shall specify the basis for such determination and shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding for all purposes.  Thereafter, (x) any Eurodollar Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to ABR Loans.

 

38











 

Until such notice has been withdrawn by Lender, no further Eurodollar Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrowers have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

 

2.16                        Payments.

 

(a)                                 All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrowers hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff and shall be made prior to 11:00 A.M., Pacific time, on the due date thereof to Lender, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.  Any payment received by Lender after 11:00 A.M., Pacific time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day.  If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.  In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

 

(b)                                 Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

(c)                                  If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to Lender to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, toward payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, and (ii) second, toward payment of principal then due hereunder.

 

2.17                        Illegality; Requirements of Law.

 

(a)                                 Illegality.  If Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for Lender to make, maintain or fund Eurodollar Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurodollar Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by Lender to the Borrower, any obligation of Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended until Lender notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers shall, upon demand from Lender, prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans of Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans.  Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

 

39











 

(b)                                 Requirements of Law.  If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

 

(i)                                     shall subject Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes covered by Section 2.18 which would have been compensated under Section 2.18 but were not so compensated due to the exclusion in Section 2.18(b), (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its Loans, loan principal, Letters of Credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

 

(ii)                                  shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended or participated in by, Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurodollar Rate); or

 

(iii)                               impose on Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender, by an amount that Lender deems to be material, of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining Loans determined with reference to the Eurodollar Rate or of maintaining its obligation to make such Loans, or to increase the cost to Lender of issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable or received by Lender in respect thereof (whether in respect of principal, interest or any other amount), then, in any such case, within the time period prescribed by Section 2.17(e), the Borrowers shall pay Lender any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.  If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

 

(c)                                  If Lender determines that any change in any Requirement of Law subsequent to the date hereof affecting Lender or any lending office of Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements, has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Lender’s capital or on the capital of Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of Lender or the Loans made by, or the Letters of Credit issued by Lender, to a level below that which Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such change in such Requirement of Law (taking into consideration Lender’s policies and the policies of Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time, within the time period prescribed by Section 2.17(e), the Borrowers will pay to Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

 

(d)                                 For purposes of this Agreement, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have gone into effect and been adopted after the date of this Agreement,

 

40












 

and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in any Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

 

(e)                                  A certificate setting forth in reasonable detail any additional amounts payable pursuant to paragraphs (b) or (c) of this Section, and the basis for such compensation, submitted by Lender to the Borrowers, shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  The Borrowers shall pay Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.  Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.17, the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17 for any amounts incurred more than nine months prior to the date that Lender notifies the Borrowers of Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.  The obligations of the Borrowers arising pursuant to this Section 2.17 shall survive the Discharge of Obligations.

 

2.18                        Taxes. For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

 

(a)                                 Payments Free of Taxes.  Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law and the Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Loan Party, to comply with the requirements set forth in this Section 2.18.  If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)                                 Exclusion from Gross Up.  The Irish Borrowers shall not be required to make an increased payment to Lender under Section 2.18(a) in respect of Taxes imposed by Ireland on a payment of interest on a Loan, if on the date on which the payment falls due such payment could have been made to Lender without any deduction or withholding for or on account of Taxes if Lender was a Qualifying Lender, but on such date Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender (other than as a result of a Change in Law).

 

(c)                                  Payment of Other Taxes.  The Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Loan Party to, timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable

 

41











 

law, or at the option of Lender timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes applicable to such Loan Party.

 

(d)                                 Evidence of Payments.  As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, the Borrowers shall, or shall cause such other Loan Party to, deliver to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to Lender.

 

(e)                                  Indemnification by Loan Parties.  Each Borrower shall indemnify Lender, within ten days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18, but excluding Indemnified Taxes which would have been compensated under Section 2,18(a) but were not so compensated solely due to the application of the exclusion in Section 2,18(b)) payable or paid by Lender (for Non-U.S. Borrowers, with respect to such Borrower and for U.S. Borrowers jointly and severally with respect to all Borrowers) or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority.  A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  If any Loan Party fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to Lender the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, such Loan Party shall indemnify Lender for any incremental taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by Lender as a result of any such failure.

 

(f)                                   Status of Lender.

 

(i)                         If Lender is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, it shall deliver to the Borrowers or any tax authority, at the time or times reasonably directed by the Borrowers, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  In addition, Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrowers as will enable the Borrower to determine whether or not Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.18(f)(ii) and (iii) below) shall not be required if the Lender is not legally entitled to complete, execute or deliver such documentation or, in the Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of Lender.

 

(ii)                      Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Borrower is a U.S. Person, Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers on or prior to the date on which Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the

 

42











 

reasonable request of the Borrowers), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax.

 

(iii)                   If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Lender 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), Lender shall deliver to the Borrowers at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers 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 as may be necessary for the Borrowers to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that Lender has complied with Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for purposes of this clause (A), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

(iv)                  Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrowers in writing of its legal inability to do so.

 

(v)                     Lender represents and warrants that, on the Closing Date it is a Qualifying Lender and each Person that becomes a party to this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.6(b) represents and warrants that it is a Qualifying Lender as of the date of its joinder.  Lender agrees to promptly notify the Irish Borrowers if it ceases to be a Qualifying Lender at any time after the Closing Date.

 

(g)                                  If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.18 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18), 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 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

43











 

(h)                                 Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of Lender, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, Lender, and the Discharge of Obligations.

 

2.19                        Indemnity.  The Borrowers agree to indemnify Lender for, and to hold Lender harmless from, any loss or expense that Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) a default by the Borrowers in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after a Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) a default by the Borrowers in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurodollar Loans after the Borrowers have given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, or (c) for any reason, the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  Such losses and expenses shall be equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, reduced, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, reduce, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest or other return for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by Lender) that would have accrued to Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market.  A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrowers by Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  This covenant shall survive the Discharge of Obligations.  This Section 2.19 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-Tax claim.

 

2.20                        Borrower Parent as Agent.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Borrower Parent as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the receipt of the proceeds of any Loans made by the Lender to any such Borrower hereunder.  Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by Borrower Parent, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein.  Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgment, direction, certification or other communication delivered to Borrower Parent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Borrower.

 

SECTION 3
 LETTERS OF CREDIT

 

3.1                               L/C Commitment.

 

(a)                                 Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Lender agrees to issue letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of any of the Borrowers on any Business Day during the Letter of Credit Availability Period in such form as may reasonably be approved from

 

44











 

time to time by Lender; provided that Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, the L/C Exposure would exceed either the L/C Commitments or the Available Revolving Commitment at such time.  Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).  For the avoidance of doubt, no commercial letters of credit shall be issued by Lender to any Person under this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if:

 

(i)                                     such issuance would conflict with, or cause Lender to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law;

 

(ii)                                  any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain Lender from issuing, amending or reinstating such Letter of Credit, or any law, rule or regulation applicable to Lender or any request, guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over Lender shall prohibit, or request that Lender refrain from, the issuance, amendment, renewal or reinstatement of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which Lender is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which Lender in good faith deems material to it;

 

(iii)                               Lender has received written notice from the Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or reinstatement of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in Section 5.2 shall not then be satisfied;

 

(iv)                              any requested Letter of Credit is not in form and substance acceptable to Lender, or the issuance, amendment or renewal of a Letter of Credit shall violate any applicable laws or regulations or any applicable policies of Lender;

 

(v)                                 such Letter of Credit contains any provisions providing for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder; or

 

(vi)                              except as otherwise agreed by Lender, such Letter of Credit is in an initial face amount less than $150,000.

 

3.2                               Procedure for Issuance of Letters of Credit.  The Borrowers may from time to time request that Lender issue a Letter of Credit for the account of a Borrower by delivering to Lender at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as Lender may request, including the name of the Borrower that is the applicant.  Upon receipt of any Application, Lender will process such Application and the certificates,

 

45











 

documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by Lender and the applicant Borrower.  Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the applicant Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof.

 

3.3                               Fees and Other Charges.

 

(a)                                 Each Borrower agrees to pay, with respect to each outstanding Letter of Credit issued on or after the Closing Date for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrowers, (i) a letter of credit fee equal to the Applicable Margin relating to Letters of Credit multiplied by the daily amount available to be drawn under each such Letter of Credit to Lender (a “Letter of Credit Fee”), and (ii) Lender’s standard and customary, reasonable and documented fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit issued for the account of (or at the request of) the Borrowers or processing of drawings thereunder (the fees in this clause (ii), collectively, the “Issuing Lender Fees”).  Issuing Lender Fees shall be paid when required by Lender, and the Letter of Credit Fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit and on the Letter of Credit Maturity Date (each, an “L/C Fee Payment Date”).  All Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

 

(b)                                 The Borrowers shall furnish to Lender such other documents and information pertaining to any requested Letter of Credit issuance, amendment or renewal, including any L/C-Related Documents, as Lender may require.  This Agreement shall control in the event of any conflict with any L/C-Related Document (other than any Letter of Credit).

 

3.4                               Existing Letters of Credit.  On and after the Closing Date, each Existing Letter of Credit shall be deemed for all purposes, including for purposes of the fees to be collected pursuant to Section 3.3(a), reimbursement of costs and expenses to the extent provided herein and for purposes of being secured by the Collateral, a Letter of Credit outstanding under this Agreement and entitled to the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall be governed by the applications and agreements pertaining thereto and by this Agreement (which shall control in the event of a conflict).

 

3.5                               Reimbursement.

 

(a)                                 If Lender shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, Lender shall notify the Borrowers thereof and the applicable Borrower shall pay or cause to be paid to Lender an amount equal to the entire amount of such L/C Disbursement not later than (i) the immediately following Business Day if Lender issues such notice before 10:00 A.M. Pacific time on the date of such L/C Disbursement, or (ii) on the second following Business Day if Lender issues such notice at or after 10:00 A.M. Pacific time on the date of such L/C

 

46











 

Disbursement.  Each such payment shall be made to Lender at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds.

 

(b)                                 If Lender shall not have received from the applicable Borrower the payment that it is required to make pursuant to Section 3.5(a) with respect to a Letter of Credit within the time specified in such Section, if the conditions to borrowings and Revolving Loan Conversions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied, the applicable Borrower may, by written notice to Lender certifying that such conditions are satisfied and that all interest owing under this paragraph has been paid, and specifying a conversion into either a U.S. Revolving Loan or a Non-U.S. Revolving Loan, request that an L/C Disbursement be converted into Revolving Loans (a “Revolving Loan Conversion”), in which case, if such conditions are in fact satisfied, the Lender shall be deemed to have extended, and the Borrowers shall be deemed to have accepted, a Revolving Loan in the aggregate principal amount of such payment without further action on the part of any party, and the L/C Commitments shall be permanently reduced by such amount; any amount so paid pursuant to this paragraph shall, on and after the payment date thereof, be deemed to be Revolving Loans for all purposes hereunder; provided that Lender, at its option, may effectuate a Revolving Loan Conversion regardless of whether the conditions to borrowings and Revolving Loan Conversions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied.

 

3.6                               Obligations Absolute.  The Borrowers’ obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrowers may have or have had against Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  Each Borrower also agrees with Lender that Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrowers and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrowers against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.  Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors or omissions found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender.  Each Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall be binding on the Borrowers and shall not result in any liability of Lender to the Borrowers.

 

In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in the Agreement, the Borrowers hereby agree to pay and to protect, indemnify, and save Lender harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of (A) the issuance of any Letter of Credit, or (B) the failure of Lender to honor a demand for payment under any Letter of Credit thereof as a result of any act or omission, whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto government or Governmental Authority, in each case other than to the extent solely as a result of the bad faith,

 

47











 

gross negligence or willful misconduct of Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

 

3.7                               Letter of Credit Payments.  If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, Lender shall promptly notify the Borrowers of the date and amount thereof.  The responsibility of Lender to the Borrowers in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

 

3.8                               Applications.  To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

 

3.9                               Interim Interest.  If Lender shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrowers shall have reimbursed such L/C Disbursement in full within the time period specified in Section 3.5(a) the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of Lender, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by the Borrowers, at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were a Revolving Loan that is an ABR Loan; provided that the provisions of Section 2.10(c) shall be applicable to any such amounts not paid when due.

 

3.10                        Cash Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Certain Credit Support Events.  Upon the request of Lender (i) if Lender has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Advance that is not reimbursed by the Borrowers or converted into a Revolving Loan pursuant to Section 3.5(b), or (ii) if, as of the Letter of Credit Maturity Date, any L/C Exposure for any reason remains outstanding, the U.S. Borrowers shall, in each case, immediately Cash Collateralize the then effective amount of all L/C Exposure and/or the Non-U.S. Borrower shall, in each case Cash Collateralize the then effective amount of any L/C Exposure issued to any Non-U.S. Borrowers.

 

(b)                                 Grant of Security Interest.  All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked, non-interest bearing deposit accounts with Lender.  The Borrowers (other than DMIH and Domains) hereby grant to (and subjects to the control of) Lender, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest and Lien in all such Cash Collateral and in all proceeds thereof, as security for the Obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 3.10(c).  If at any time Lender determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Lender as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than 105% of the applicable L/C Exposure, and other Obligations secured thereby, the Borrowers will, promptly upon demand by Lender, pay or provide to Lender additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.

 

48











 

(c)                                  Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 3.10, Section 2.22 or otherwise in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Exposure, and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.

 

3.11                        Applicability of ISP.  Unless otherwise expressly agreed by Lender and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, the Letters of Credit shall be governed by and subject to the rules of the ISP.

 

SECTION 4
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

To induce Lender to enter into this Agreement, to make the initial Loans on the Closing Date and to make additional Loans and to issue the Letters of Credit thereafter, each Borrower hereby represents and warrants to Lender, on behalf of itself and each of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, that:

 

4.1                               Financial Condition.  The audited consolidated balance sheets of the Borrower Parent and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013, December 31, 2012, and December 31, 2011, and the related consolidated statements of operations and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended.  The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower Parent and its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2014, presents fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of operations and cash flows for the three-month period ended on such date present fairly in all material respects the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for such period (in each case subject to normal year end audit adjustments).  All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein).

 

4.2                               No Change.  Since December 31, 2013, there has been no event or condition, other than events or conditions previously disclosed in public filings prior to the Closing Date, that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.3                               Existence; Compliance with Law.  Each Group Member (a) is duly organized or incorporated, validly existing and, except in the case of DMIH and Domains, in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or incorporation, (b) has the power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where the failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in material compliance with all Requirements of Law except in such instances in which (i) such Requirement of Law is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently conducted and the prosecution of such contest would not

 

49











 

reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, or (ii) the failure to comply therewith, either individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.4                               Power, Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.  Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder.  Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrowers, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  No Governmental Approval or consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) Governmental Approvals, consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which Governmental Approvals, consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19 and (iii) Governmental Approvals described in Schedule 4.4.  Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto.  This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

 

4.5                               No Legal Bar.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law (except as set forth in Schedule 4.5) or any material Contractual Obligation of any Group Member and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents).  No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The absence of obtaining the Governmental Approvals described in Schedule 4.5 and the violations of Requirements of Law referenced in Schedule 4.5 shall not have an adverse effect on any rights of Lender pursuant to the Loan Documents.

 

4.6                               Litigation.  Except as disclosed on Schedule 4.6, no litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, threatened in writing by or against any Group Member or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.7                               No Default.  No Group Member is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material

Adverse Effect.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, nor shall either result from the making of a requested credit extension.

Each Group Member has title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of its real property, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all of its other property material to the operation of its business, except defects in title that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and none of such property is subject to any Lien except as permitted by Section 7.3.

 

4.9                               Intellectual Property.  Except where the absence of such right could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, each Group Member owns, or possesses a legal right to use, all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business as currently conducted.  No claim has been asserted in writing and is pending by any Person challenging or questioning any Group Member’s use of any Intellectual Property or the validity or effectiveness of any Group Member’s Intellectual Property, nor does any Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim, unless such claim could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The use of Intellectual Property by each Group Member, and the conduct of such Group Member’s business, as currently conducted, does not infringe on or otherwise violate the rights of any Person, unless such infringement could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and there are no claims pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened in writing to such effect.

4.22                        Designated Senior Indebtedness.  The Loan Documents and all of the Obligations have been deemed “Designated Senior Indebtedness” or a similar concept thereto, if applicable, for purposes of any Permitted Subordinated Indebtedness of the Loan Parties, including the Term Loan.

(a)                                 if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) of Section 8.1 with respect to the Borrowers, the Commitments shall immediately terminate automatically and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall automatically immediately become due and payable, and

 

(b)                                 if such event is any other Event of Default, any of the following actions may be taken:  (i)  Lender may, by notice to the Borrowers declare the Revolving Commitments, and the L/C Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Revolving Commitments, and the L/C Commitments shall immediately terminate; (ii)  Lender may, by notice to the Borrowers, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable; and (iii) exercise on behalf of itself, Lender all rights and remedies available to it, Lender under the Loan Documents.  With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrowers shall Cash Collateralize an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit.  Amounts so Cash Collateralized shall be applied by Lender to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations of the

 

79

After all such Letters of Credit shall have been terminated, expired or fully drawn upon, as applicable, and all amounts drawn under any such Letters of Credit shall have been reimbursed in full and all other Obligations of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, of the funds having been so Cash Collateralized shall be returned to the Borrowers (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto).  Except as expressly provided above in this Section, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrowers.

 

8.3                               Application of Funds.  After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.2, any amounts received by Lender on account of the Obligations shall be applied by Lender in the following order:

 

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to Lender (including any Issuing Lender Fees and the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel to Lender and amounts payable under Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19), and any Qualified Counterparties, in each case, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause First payable to them;

 

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans and L/C Disbursements which have not yet been converted into Revolving Loans, and to payment of premiums and other fees (including any interest thereon) under any Specified Swap Agreements, to Lender, and any Qualified Counterparties, in each case, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Second payable to them;

 

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid principal of the Loans, L/C Disbursements which have not yet been converted into Revolving Loans, and settlement amounts, payment amounts and other termination payment obligations under any Specified Swap Agreements, in each case, to Lender, and any applicable Qualified Counterparties, in each case, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third held by them;

 

Fourth, to Lender to Cash Collateralize that portion of the L/C Exposure comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 3.10;

 

Fifth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties that are then due and payable to Lender and the other Secured Parties on such date, in each case, ratably among them in proportion to the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to Lender and the other Secured Parties on such date;

 

Sixth, for the account of any applicable Qualified Counterparty, to Cash Collateralize Obligations arising under any then outstanding Specified Swap Agreements, in each case, ratably among them in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Sixth payable to them; and

 

80












 

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full (excluding, for this purpose, any Obligations which have been Cash Collateralized in accordance with the terms hereof), to the Borrowers or as otherwise required by Law.

 

Subject to Sections 3.4, 3.5 and 3.10, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur.  If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above.

(b)                                 Indemnification by the Borrowers.  The Borrowers shall indemnify Lender (and any sub-agent thereof), and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any Person (including the Borrowers or any other Loan Party) other than such Indemnitee and its Related Parties arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of Materials of Environmental Concern on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrowers or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrowers or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities

No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (b) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

 

(d)                                 Payments.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly after demand therefor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Non-U.S. Borrowers shall (i) be responsible for the payments described in clause (a) above solely with respect to the Non-U.S. Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries, (ii) not be responsible for the payments described in clause (a) above with respect to any U.S. Borrowers, (iii) indemnify each Indemnitee as described in clause (b) above solely with respect to the Non-U.S. Borrowers and their respective Subsidiaries and (iv) not indemnify any Indemnitee as described in clause (b) above in respect of claims relating to any U.S. Borrower.

 

10.6                        Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

 

(a)                                 Successors and Assigns Generally.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrowers may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender, and Lender may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c) of this Section, or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (d) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).  Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, 

 

84











 

Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of Lender) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 Assignments by Lender.  Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans at the time owing to it); provided that (in each case with respect to any Facility) any such assignment shall be subject to the following condition:

 

(i)             the consent of the Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment, or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; provided that the Borrowers shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to Lender within seven Business Days after having received notice thereof.

 

(c)                                  Participations.  Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person or any Loan Party or any of any Loan Party’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and (iii) the Borrowers shall continue to deal solely and directly with Lender in connection with Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.

 

Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver which affects such Participant and for which the consent of Lender is required (as described in Section 10.1).  The Borrowers agree that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18 and 2.19 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.18(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to such participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.17 or 2.18, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in any Requirement of Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender.  Lender 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 Lender shall not have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the

 

85











 

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 Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

 

(d)                                 Certain Pledges.  Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for Lender as a party hereto.

 

10.7                        Set-off.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrowers and each Loan Party, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, at any time held or owing, and any other credits, indebtedness, claims or obligations, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by Lender, its Affiliates or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, against any and all of the obligations of the Borrowers or such other Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations of the Borrowers or such other Loan Party may be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch, office or Affiliate of Lender different from the branch, office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein, Lender shall only setoff amounts owing under the Non-U.S. Revolving Loans with amounts from deposits of Non-U.S. Borrowers.

 

10.8                        Payments Set Aside.  To the extent that any payment or transfer by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to Lender, or Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or transfer or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

 

10.9                        Interest Rate Limitation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable

 

86











 

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

 

10.10                 Counterparts.

 

(a)                                 This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or electronic mail transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.  A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrowers and Lender.

 

(b)                                 The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

 

10.11                 Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

10.12                 Integration.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the entire agreement of the Borrowers, the other Loan Parties, Lender with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

 

10.13                 GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES.  This Section 10.13 shall survive the Discharge of Obligations.

 

87











 

10.14                 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers.  Each Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

 

(a)                                 submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State and Federal courts in the Northern District of the State of California; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Administrative Agent or Lender.  Each Borrower expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non-conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court.  Each Borrower hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service (i) of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such Borrower at the addresses set forth in Section 10.2 of this Agreement and (ii) so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of such Borrower’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid; provided, however, in the case of each of DMIH and Domains, each hereby irrevocably appoints Borrower Parent as its agent to accept service of all process in the State of California on its behalf in relation to this Agreement and any such notices may be sent to Borrower Parent to the address set forth in Section 10.2 of this Agreement.

 

(b)                                 WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS.  THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.  EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL; and

 

(c)                                  AGREES, WITHOUT INTENDING IN ANY WAY TO LIMIT ITS AGREEMENT TO WAIVE ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY, that if the above waiver of the right to a trial by jury is not enforceable, any and all disputes or controversies of any nature arising under the Loan Documents at any time shall be decided by a reference to a private judge, mutually selected by the Borrowers, Lender (or, if they cannot agree, by the Presiding Judge in the Northern District of the State of California) appointed in accordance with California Code of Civil Procedure Section 638 (or pursuant to comparable provisions of federal law if the dispute falls within the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal courts), sitting without a jury, in the Northern District of the State of California; and the Borrowers hereby submit to the jurisdiction of such court.  The reference proceedings shall be conducted pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638 through 645.1, inclusive.  The private judge shall have the power, among others, to grant provisional relief, including without limitation, entering temporary restraining orders, issuing preliminary and permanent injunctions and appointing receivers.  All such proceedings shall be closed to the public and confidential and all records relating thereto shall be permanently sealed.  If during the course of any dispute, a party desires to seek provisional relief, but a judge has not been appointed at that point pursuant to the judicial reference procedures, then such party may apply to the Northern District of the

 

88











 

State of California for such relief.  The proceeding before the private judge shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of evidence applicable to judicial proceedings.  The Borrowers shall be entitled to discovery which shall be conducted in the same manner as it would be before a court under the rules of discovery applicable to judicial proceedings.  The private judge shall oversee discovery and may enforce all discovery rules and orders applicable to judicial proceedings in the same manner as a trial court judge.  The Borrowers agree that the selected or appointed private judge shall have the power to decide all issues in the action or proceeding, whether of fact of law, and shall report a statement of decision thereon pursuant to the California Code of Civil Procedure § 644(a).  Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of Lender at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral, or obtain provisional remedies.  The private judge shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation and enforceability of this paragraph.

 

10.15                 Acknowledgements.  Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

 

(a)                                 it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 

(b)                                 Lender does not have any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrowers arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between Lender, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

 

(c)                                  no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Borrowers and Lender.

 

10.16                 Release of Collateral.  At such time as the Loans and the other Obligations under the Loan Documents (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) shall have been paid in full, the Commitments have been terminated and no Letters of Credit or Specified Swap Agreements shall be outstanding (other than Letters of Credit and Specified Swap Agreements the Obligations in respect of which have been Cash Collateralized in an amount equal to 105% thereof in accordance with the terms hereof or as to which other arrangements satisfactory to Lender or any applicable Qualified Counterparty, as applicable, shall have been made), the Collateral shall be released from the Liens created by the Security Documents, and the Security Documents and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of Lender and each Loan Party under the Security Documents shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person. At the sole expense of the Loan Parties following such termination, Lender shall deliver such documents as the Loan Parties shall reasonably request to evidence such termination and shall otherwise authorize the filing of such documents as the Loan Parties shall reasonably request to terminate its liens.

 

10.17                 Treatment of Certain Information; Confidentiality.  Lender agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by

 

89











 

any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority, in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law or if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrowers or Subsidiaries or the Facilities or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Facilities; (h) with the consent of the Borrowers; (i) to Gold Sheets and other similar bank trade publications, such information to consist of deal terms and other information customarily found in such publications; or (j) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or (y) becomes available to Lender or any of its Affiliates on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers.

 

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any party to this Agreement (and any employee, representative, or other agent of any party to this Agreement) may disclose to any and all persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.  However, any such information relating to the tax treatment or tax structure is required to be kept confidential to the extent necessary to comply with any applicable federal or state securities laws.

 

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries relating to the Borrowers or any Subsidiaries or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrowers or any Subsidiaries or that becomes available to Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than Borrowers.  Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

 

10.18                 Automatic Debits.  With respect to any principal, interest, fee, or any other cost or expense (including attorney costs of Lender payable by the Borrowers hereunder) due and payable to Lender under the Loan Documents, the Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize Lender to debit any deposit account of the Borrowers maintained with Lender in an amount such that the aggregate amount debited from all such deposit accounts does not exceed such principal, interest, fee or other cost or expense.  If there are insufficient funds in such

 

90












 

deposit accounts to cover the amount then due, such debits will be reversed (in whole or in part, in Lender’s sole discretion) and such amount not debited shall be deemed to be unpaid.  No such debit under this Section 10.18 shall be deemed a set-off.

 

10.19      Judgment Currency.  If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures Lender could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.  The obligation of the Borrower and each other Loan Party in respect of any such sum due from it to Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, Lender may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to Lender from the Borrowers or any other Loan Party in the Agreement Currency, the Borrowers and each other Loan Party agree, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify Lender against such loss.  If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to Lender in such currency, Lender agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrowers or other Loan Party, as applicable (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

 

10.20      Patriot Act; OFAC.

 

(a)           Lender hereby notifies the Borrowers that, pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrowers, which information includes the names and addresses and other information that will allow Lender to identify the Borrowers in accordance with the Patriot Act.  Each Borrower will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable or required by any Requirement of Law, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by Lender to assist Lender in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act.

 

(b)           Each Loan Party and each of its Affiliates is in compliance with the Patriot Act and other federal or state laws relating to “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations.

 

(c)           No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries, any director, officer, employee, agent, affiliate or representative thereof, is an individual or entity that is, or is owned or controlled by any individual or entity that is (i) currently the subject or target of any Sanctions, except as set forth on Schedule 10.20(c) with respect to matters that could not reasonably be expected to result in (A) a Material Adverse Effect or (B) an adverse effect on Lender, or (ii) located, organized or resident in a Designated Jurisdiction.  No Borrower shall directly or indirectly use any credit extension or the proceeds of any credit extension, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such credit extension or the proceeds of any credit extension to any Person, to fund any activities of or business with any Person (other than eNom on the basis of the

 

91











 

activities disclosed on Schedule 10.20(c) except and to the extent that such activities could not reasonably be expected to result in (x) a Material Adverse Effect or (y) an adverse effect on Lender), or in any Designated Jurisdiction, that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of Sanctions, or in any other manner that will result in a violation by any Person (including any Person participating in the transaction, whether as a lender or otherwise) of Sanctions.
