(A)          the payment could have been made to the relevant Lender without a Tax Deduction if the Lender had been a Qualifying Lender, but on that date that Lender is not or has ceased to be a Qualifying Lender other than as a result of any change after the date it became a Lender under this Agreement in (or in the interpretation, administration, or application of) any law or Treaty or any published practice or published concession of any relevant taxing authority, save where (following any such change) if the UK Obligor can demonstrate that it would have been possible for the payment to have been made without the relevant Tax Deduction if the relevant Lender had completed, or co-operated in completing, any necessary procedural formalities provided that the UK Obligor provides reasonable notice of any such procedural formalities to such Lender and such Lender is legally entitled to complete such procedural formalities and in its reasonable judgment such completion would not materially prejudice its commercial or legal position or require disclosure of information it considers confidential or proprietary; or

 

(B)           the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of Qualifying Lender; and:

 

(aa)         an officer of H.M. Revenue & Customs has given (and not revoked) a direction (a “Direction”) under section 931 of the ITA which relates to the payment and that Lender has received from the UK Obligor making the payment or from the Parent Borrower a certified copy of that Direction; and

 

(bb)         the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if that Direction had not been made; or

 

(C)           the relevant Lender is a Qualifying Lender solely by virtue of paragraph (i)(B) of the definition of Qualifying Lender and:

 

(aa)         the relevant Lender has not given a Tax Confirmation to the Parent Borrower; and

 

(bb)         the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had given a Tax Confirmation to the Parent Borrower, on the basis

 

12











 

that the Tax Confirmation would have enabled the UK Obligor to have formed a reasonable belief that the payment was an “excepted payment” for the purpose of section 930 of the ITA.

 

(D)          the relevant Lender is a Treaty Lender and the UK Obligor making the payment is able to demonstrate that the payment could have been made to the Lender without the Tax Deduction had that Lender complied with its obligations under paragraph (vii) below; or

 

(E)           The relevant Lender has not completed the UK Tax Certification and the payment could have been made to the Lender without any Tax Deduction if the Lender had completed the UK Tax Certification.

 

(v)           If a UK Obligor is required to make a Tax Deduction, that UK Obligor shall make that Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the minimum amount required by law.

 

(vi)          Within thirty days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the UK Obligor making that Tax Deduction shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender entitled to the payment a statement under section 975 of the ITA or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to that Lender that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

 

(vii)         (a) Subject to paragraph (vii)(b) below, a Treaty Lender and each UK Obligor which makes a payment to which that Treaty Lender is entitled shall co-operate in completing any procedural formalities necessary for that UK Obligor to obtain authorisation to make that payment without a Tax Deduction.

 

(b)   Nothing in this paragraph shall require a Treaty Lender to:

 

A.    Register under the HRMC DT Treaty Passport Scheme;

 

B.    Apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to any Loan if it has so registered;

 

C.    File Treaty forms if it has included an indication to the effect that it wishes to apply the HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme to apply this agreement in accordance with paragraph (x) below or paragraph (d) below (HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme Confirmation) and the UK Obligor making that payment has not complied with its obligations under paragraph (xi) below or

 

13











 

paragraph (d) (HMRC DT Treaty Passport Scheme Confirmation).

 

(viii)        A UK Non-Bank Lender which becomes a party on the day on which it enters into an Assignment and Assumption gives a Tax Confirmation to the UK Obligor by entering into the UK Tax Certification.

 

(ix)           A UK Non-Bank Lender shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent if there is any change in the position from that set out in the Tax Confirmation.

 

(x)            A Treaty Lender which becomes a party on the day on which this Agreement is entered into that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any UK Obligor) by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence opposite its name in a UK Tax Certification.

 

(xi)           Where a Lender includes the indication described in paragraph (x) above in a UK Tax Certification:

 

(a)           each UK Obligor shall, to the extent that that Lender is a Lender under a Facility made available to that UK Obligor pursuant to Section 2.1 (Commitments; Incremental Facilities), file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the date of this Agreement and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing; and

 

(b)           each UK Obligor which becomes a UK Obligor after the date of this Agreement shall, to the extent that that Lender is a Lender under a Facility made available to that UK Obligor pursuant to Section 2.1 (Commitments; Incremental Facilities), file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of becoming a UK Obligor and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

 

(xii)         If a Lender has not included an indication to the effect that it wishes the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme to apply to this Agreement in accordance with paragraph (x) above or paragraph (d) (HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation), no Obligor shall file any form relating to the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme in respect of that Lender’s Commitment(s) or its participation in any Loan.

 

(c)           Tax indemnity

 

(i)            The Parent Borrower or UK Obligor shall (within three Business Days of demand by the Administrative Agent) pay to the Administrative Agent or a Lender an amount equal to the loss, liability or cost which the

 

14











 

Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender determines will be or has been (directly or indirectly) suffered for or on account of Tax imposed by the United Kingdom or any Tax imposed by any jurisdiction other than the United Kingdom that is not an Excluded Tax pursuant to clause (a), (b), (d) or (e) of the definition of Excluded Tax by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender in respect of a Loan Document.

 

(ii)           Section (c)(i) above shall not apply:

 

(A)          with respect to any Tax assessed on the Administrative Agent or a Lender:

 

(aa)         under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender is incorporated or, if different, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender is treated as resident for tax purposes; or

 

(bb)         under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent’s or the relevant Lender’s applicable lending office is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction,

 

if that Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable (but not any sum deemed to be received or receivable) by the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender; or

 

(iii)          to the extent a loss, liability or cost:

 

(A)          is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.19A(b); or

 

(B)           would have been compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.19A(b) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in Section 2.19A(b)(iv) applied.

 

(iv)          If the Administrative Agent or a Lender makes, or intends to make a claim under Section (c)(i) above, it shall promptly notify the Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower.

 

(v)           A Lender shall, on receiving a payment from an Obligor under Section (c)(i), notify the Administrative Agent.

 

(d)           Tax Credit

 

If a UK Obligor makes a Tax Payment and the relevant Lender determines that:

 

15











 

(i)            a Tax Credit is attributable either to an increased payment of which that Tax Payment forms part or to that Tax Payment; and

 

(ii)           that Lender has obtained, utilised and retained that Tax Credit,

 

That Lender shall pay an amount to the UK Obligor which that Lender determines will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Taxes position as it would have been in had the Tax Payment not been required to be made by the UK Obligor.

 

(e) Lender Status Confirmation

 

Each Lender which becomes a party to this Agreement after the date of this Agreement (“New Lender”) shall indicate, in the UK Tax Certification which it executes on becoming a party , and for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any UK Obligor, which of the following categories it falls in:

 

(i)            not a Qualifying Lender;

 

(ii)           a Qualifying Lender (other than a Treaty Lender); or

 

(iii)          a Treaty Lender.

 

If a New Lender fails to indicate its status in accordance with this Section 2.19A(e) then such New Lender shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement (including by each UK Obligor) as if it is not a Qualifying Lender until such time as it notifies the Administrative Agent which category applies (and the Administrative Agent, upon receipt of such notification, shall inform the U.S. Borrower).  For the avoidance of doubt, an Assignment and Assumption shall not be invalidated by any failure of a Lender to comply with this Section 2.19A(e).

 

(f) HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme confirmation

 

(i)            An Assignee that is a Treaty Lender that holds a passport under the HMRC DT Treaty Passport scheme, and which wishes that scheme to apply to this Agreement, shall include an indication to that effect (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and without liability to any UK Obligor) in the UK Tax Certification which it executes by including its scheme reference number and its jurisdiction of tax residence in that UK Tax Certification.

 

(ii)           Where an Assignee includes the indication described in paragraph (ii) above in the relevant UK Tax Certification:

 

(A)          each UK Obligor which is a UK Obligor on the date on which the Assignee becomes a Lender under this Agreement shall, to the extent that the Assignee becomes a Lender under a Facility which is made available to the UK Obligor pursuant to Section 2.1 (Commitments; Incremental Facilities), file a

 

16











 

duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Assignee with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days from the date on which the Assignee becomes a Lender under this Agreement and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing; and

 

(B)           each UK Obligor which becomes a party to this Agreement as a UK Obligor after the date on which the Assignee becomes a party shall, to the extent that that Assignee is a Lender under a Facility which is made available to that UK Obligor pursuant to Section 2.1 (Commitments; Incremental Facilities), file a duly completed form DTTP2 in respect of such Lender with HM Revenue & Customs within 30 days of the UK Obligor becoming a party to this Agreement and shall promptly provide the Lender with a copy of that filing.

 

(g)           Value Added Tax

 

(i)            All amounts set out or expressed in a Loan Document to be payable by any party to any Lender which (in whole or in part) constitute the consideration for a supply or supplies for value added tax (“VAT”) purposes shall be deemed to be exclusive of any VAT which is chargeable on such supply or supplies, and accordingly, subject to paragraph (ii) below, if VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender to any party under a Loan Document, that party shall pay to the Lender (in addition to and at the same time as paying any other consideration for such supply) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT (and such Lender shall promptly provide an appropriate VAT invoice to such party).

 

(ii)           If VAT is or becomes chargeable on any supply made by any Lender (the “Supplier”) to any other Lender (the “Recipient”) under a Loan and any party other than the Recipient (the “Subject Party”) is required by the terms of any Loan Document to pay an amount equal to the consideration for such supply to the Supplier (rather than being required to reimburse the Recipient in respect of that consideration), such Party shall also pay to the Supplier (in addition to and at the same time as paying such amount) an amount equal to the amount of such VAT.  The Recipient will promptly pay to the Subject Party an amount equal to any credit or repayment obtained by the Recipient from the relevant tax authority which the Recipient reasonably determines is in respect of such VAT.

 

(iii)          Where a Loan Document requires any party to reimburse or indemnify a Lender for any cost or expense, that party shall reimburse or indemnify (as the case may be) such Lender for the full amount of such cost or expense, including such part thereof as represents VAT, save to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines that it is entitled to credit or repayment in respect of such VAT from the relevant tax authority.

 

(iv)          Any reference in this Section 2.19A(g) to any party shall, at any time when such party is treated as a member of a group for VAT purposes, include (where appropriate and unless the context otherwise requires) a reference to the representative member of such group at such time (the term “representative member” to have the same meaning as in the United Kingdom Value Added Tax Act 1994).

 

17

(ii) Subject to the consent of the Foreign Trade Facility Agent, the Administrative Agent and the Bilateral Foreign Issuing Lenders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Parent Borrower may designate any Foreign Subsidiary of the Parent Borrower as a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Bilateral Foreign Trade Facility by delivery to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Subsidiary Agreement executed by such Subsidiary, the Parent Borrower, the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent and upon such delivery such Subsidiary shall for all purposes of this Agreement be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Bilateral Foreign Trade Facility and a party to this Agreement until the Parent Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Foreign Trade Facility Agent and the Administrative Agent a Borrowing Subsidiary Termination with respect to such Subsidiary, whereupon such Subsidiary shall cease to be a Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Bilateral Foreign Trade Facility.

 

(iii) Notwithstanding the preceding clauses (i) and (ii), no such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination will become effective as to any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower under the Foreign Trade Facility or the Bilateral Foreign Trade Facility, as applicable, at a time when any Obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding thereunder or any applicable Foreign Credit Instruments issued for the account of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower shall be outstanding (which shall not have been cash collateralized or otherwise supported in a manner consistent with the terms of Section 2.6(o)(iv) or the obligations of such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower in respect of each outstanding Foreign Credit Instrument shall not have been assumed by the Parent Borrower or another Foreign Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to a written assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Parent Borrower, such terminated Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, any Foreign Subsidiary Borrower that assumes obligations of such terminated Foreign Subsidiary Borrower, and the Foreign Trade Facility Agent), provided that such Borrowing Subsidiary Termination shall be effective to terminate such Foreign Subsidiary Borrower’s right to request further Foreign Credit

(aa)         The last sentence of Section 9.4(b)(iii) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

 

The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire and shall complete Exhibit P (UK Tax Certification) and deliver it to the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding the terms of Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that (a) the Parent Borrower shall not be required to pledge any Capital Stock of Ballantyne Holding Company so long as, on or before the date of funding of the Incremental Term Loan A (as defined in the applicable Incremental Facility Activation Notice) and/or Incremental Term Loan X, Johnston Ballantyne Holdings Limited becomes a “Grantor” under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and provides a non-recourse guarantee and pledge of 65% of the outstanding shares of voting stock of SPX Clyde

 

19











 

Luxembourg S.à r.l. in accordance with the terms of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, pursuant to an Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto, and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, none of Ballantyne Company, SPX Clyde Luxembourg S.à r.l. or SPX Clyde UK Limited shall be required to be a “Grantor” under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.

(iii)          No consent, approval, authorization or order of, or filing, registration or qualification with, any court or governmental authority or third party is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Loan Party of this Amendment.

(e)           This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same

 

20
