The Applicable Margin shall be determined by the Agent under this clause (a) from time to time, based on the Leverage Ratio as set forth in the Compliance Certificate most recently delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.3.  Any adjustment to the Applicable Margin shall be effective (i) in the case of a Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with quarterly financial statements of the Parent delivered pursuant to Section 9.3., as of the date 50 days following the end of the last day of the applicable fiscal period covered by such Compliance Certificate, and (ii) in the case of a Compliance Certificate delivered in connection with annual financial statements of the Parent delivered pursuant to Section 9.3., as of the date 95 days following the end of the last day of the applicable fiscal period covered by such Compliance Certificate.  If the Borrower shall fail to deliver a Compliance Certificate within the time period required under Section 9.3., the Applicable Margin shall be determined based on Level 4 until the Borrower delivers the required Compliance Certificate, in which case the Applicable Margin shall be determined as provided above effective as of the date of delivery of such Compliance Certificate.  If the Borrower shall deliver a Compliance Certificate which is subsequently determined to be incorrect and, if correct when delivered, would have resulted in a higher Applicable Margin, Borrower shall pay to the Agent, within five (5) days after demand, any additional interest that would have accrued and been payable on any Loans using such higher Applicable Margin during the period that such lower Applicable Margin was applied incorrectly.

 

(b)           From and after the time that Administrative Agent receives written notice from Borrower that Parent or Borrower has an Investment Grade Rating from a Rating Agency and that Borrower has irrevocably elected to have the Applicable Margin determined based on Parent’s or Borrower’s Investment Grade Rating, “Applicable Margin” shall mean, as of any date of determination, a percentage per annum determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level as set forth below (provided that any interest accrued prior to receipt of such notice that is payable at the Applicable Margin determined by reference to the Leverage Ratio shall be payable as provided in Section 2.5.):

The Swingline Lender shall give notice to the Agent of any such borrowing of Base Rate Loans not later than 12:00 noon on the proposed date of such borrowing and the Agent shall give notice of such borrowing to the Revolving Loan Lenders by 1:00 p.m. on such date.  No later than 2:00 p.m. on such date, each Revolving Loan Lender will make available to the Agent at the Principal Office for the account of Swingline Lender, in immediately available funds, the proceeds of the Base Rate Loan to be made by such Revolving Loan Lender.  The Agent shall pay the proceeds of such Base Rate Loans to the Swingline Lender, which shall apply such proceeds to repay such Swingline Loan.  At the time each Swingline Loan is made, each Revolving Loan Lender shall automatically (and without any further notice or action) be deemed to have purchased from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage in such Swingline Loan.  If the Revolving Loan Lenders are prohibited from making Loans required to be made under this subsection for any reason, including without limitation, the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default described in Section 11.1.(f) or 11.1.(g), upon notice from the Agent or the Swingline Lender, each Revolving Loan Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in respect of such participation the amount of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of each outstanding Swingline Loan.  If such amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by any Revolving Loan Lender, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof, at the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Revolving Loan Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon demand therefor 

 

38











 

by the Agent or the Swingline Lender, and until such time as such Revolving Loan Lender makes the required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of such unpaid participation obligation for all purposes of the Loan Documents (other than those provisions requiring the other Revolving Loan Lenders to purchase a participation therein).  Further, such Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans, and any other amounts due to it hereunder, to the Swingline Lender to fund Swingline Loans in the amount of the participation in Swingline Loans that such Revolving Loan Lender failed to purchase pursuant to this Section until such amount has been purchased (as a result of such assignment or otherwise).  A Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to make payments in respect of a participation in a Swingline Loan shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including, without limitation, (i) any claim of setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Loan Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Agent, the Swingline Lender or any other Person whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuation of a Default or Event of Default (including, without limitation, any of the Defaults or Events of Default described in Sections 11.1.(f) or 11.1.(g)) or the termination of any Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of an event or condition which has had or could have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of any Loan Document by the Agent, any Lender or the Borrower or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

Section 2.4.                                Letters of Credit.

 

(a)           Letters of Credit.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Lender, on behalf of the Revolving Loan Lenders, agrees to issue for the account of the Borrower during the period from and including the Effective Date to, but excluding, the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date one or more letters of credit (each a “Letter of Credit”) up to a maximum aggregate Stated Amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the L/C Commitment Amount.  The existing letters of credit listed on Schedule 2.4(a) issued by KeyBank in its capacity as “Agent” under the Existing Credit Agreement (the “Prior Agent”) shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued hereunder and the Prior Agent and the Revolving Loan Lenders shall have the same rights and obligations with respect to such Letters of Credit as the Issuing Lender and Revolving Loan Lenders would have if such Letters of Credit had been issued after the date hereof.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.4., the Issuing Lender shall not be obligated to issue, amend, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit at a time when any other Revolving Loan Lender is a Defaulting Lender, unless the Issuing Lender is satisfied that the participation therein will otherwise be fully allocated to the Revolving Loan Lenders that are not Non-Defaulting Lenders consistent with Section 3.11.(c) and such Defaulting Lender shall have no participation therein, except to the extent the Issuing Lender has entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender which are satisfactory to the Issuing Lender in it good faith determination to eliminate the Issuing Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to any such Defaulting Lender, including the delivery of cash collateral.

 

(b)           Terms of Letters of Credit.  At the time of issuance, the amount, form, terms and conditions of each Letter of Credit, and of any drafts or acceptances thereunder, shall be subject to approval by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, 

 

39











 

in no event may the expiration date of any Letter of Credit extend beyond the earlier of (i) the date one year from its date of issuance or (ii) the Revolving Loan Termination Date; provided, however, a Letter of Credit may contain a provision providing for the automatic extension of the expiration date in the absence of a notice of non-renewal from the Issuing Lender but in no event shall any such provision permit the extension of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Loan Termination Date; provided further, that a Letter of Credit may, as a result of its express terms or as the result of the effect of an automatic extension provision, have an expiration of not more than one year beyond the Revolving Loan Termination Date so long as (x) the Borrower delivers to the Issuing Lender no later than 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan Termination Date cash collateral for such Letter of Credit for deposit into the Collateral Account in an amount equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit.

 

(c)           Requests for Issuance of Letters of Credit.  The Borrower shall give the Issuing Lender written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) at least 5 Business Days prior to the requested date of issuance of a Letter of Credit, such notice to describe in reasonable detail the proposed terms of such Letter of Credit and the nature of the transactions or obligations proposed to be supported by such Letter of Credit, and in any event shall set forth with respect to such Letter of Credit the proposed (i) Stated Amount, (ii) the beneficiary, and (iii) the expiration date.  The Borrower shall also execute and deliver such customary letter of credit application forms as may reasonably be requested from time to time by the Issuing Lender and are consistent with the term set forth herein.  Provided the Borrower has given the notice prescribed by the first sentence of this subsection and subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the satisfaction of any applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article VI., the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of Credit on the requested date of issuance for the benefit of the stipulated beneficiary.  Upon the written request of the Borrower, the Issuing Lender shall deliver to the Borrower a copy of each issued Letter of Credit within a reasonable time after the date of issuance thereof.  To the extent any term of a Letter of Credit Document is inconsistent with a term of any Loan Document, the term of such Loan Document shall control.

 

(d)           Reimbursement Obligations.  Upon receipt by the Issuing Lender from the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of any demand for payment under such Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of the amount to be paid by the Issuing Lender as a result of such demand and the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to such beneficiary in respect of such demand; provided, however, the Issuing Lender’s failure to give, or delay in giving, such notice shall not discharge the Borrower in any respect from the applicable Reimbursement Obligation.  The Borrower hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay and reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of each demand for payment under such Letter of Credit not later than the date on which payment is to be made by the Issuing Lender to the beneficiary thereunder, without presentment, demand, protest or other formalities of any kind (other than notice as provided in this subsection).  Upon receipt by the Issuing Lender of any payment in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation, the Issuing Lender shall promptly pay to each Revolving Loan Lender that has acquired a participation therein under the second sentence of Section 2.4.(i) such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of such payment.

 

(e)           Manner of Reimbursement.  Upon its receipt of a notice referred to in the immediately preceding subsection (d), the Borrower shall advise the Agent and the Issuing

 

40












 

Lender whether or not the Borrower intends to borrow hereunder to finance its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for the amount of the related demand for payment and, if it does, the Borrower shall submit a timely request for such borrowing as provided in the applicable provisions of this Agreement.  If the Borrower fails to so advise the Agent and the Issuing Lender, or if the Borrower fails to reimburse the Issuing Lender for a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit by the date of such payment and provide evidence thereof to Agent, then (i) if the applicable conditions contained in Article VI. would permit the making of Revolving Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a borrowing of Revolving Loans (which shall be Base Rate Loans) in an amount equal to the unpaid Reimbursement Obligation and Agent shall give each Revolving Loan Lender prompt notice of the amount of the Revolving Loan to be made available to the Issuing Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. and (ii) if such conditions would not permit the making of Revolving Loans, the provisions of subsection (j) of this Section shall apply.  The limitations of Section 3.5.(a) shall not apply to any borrowing of Base Rate Loans under this subsection.

 

(f)            Effect of Letters of Credit on Revolving Loan Commitments.  Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit and until such Letter of Credit shall have expired or been terminated, the Revolving Loan Commitment of each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to be utilized for all purposes of this Agreement in an amount equal to the product of (i) such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage and (ii) the sum of (A) the Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit plus (B) any related Reimbursement Obligations then outstanding.

 

(g)           Issuing Lender’s Duties Regarding Letters of Credit; Unconditional Nature of Reimbursement Obligations.  In examining documents presented in connection with drawings under Letters of Credit and making payments under such Letters of Credit against such documents, the Issuing Lender shall only be required to use the same standard of care as it uses in connection with examining documents presented in connection with drawings under letters of credit in which it has not sold participations and making payments under such letters of credit.  The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, neither the Issuing Lender nor any of the Lenders shall be responsible for (i) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effects of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of or any drawing honored under any Letter of Credit even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any Letter of Credit, or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit to comply fully with conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telex, telecopy or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any Letter of Credit, or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or the proceeds of any drawing under any Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders.  None of the above shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the Issuing Lender’s rights or powers hereunder.  Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the 

 

41











 

Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment), shall not create against the Issuing Lender or any Lender any liability to the Borrower or any Lender.  In this regard, the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and any other applicable Letter of Credit Document under all circumstances whatsoever, including without limitation, the following circumstances:  (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit Document or any term or provisions therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the Letter of Credit Documents; (C) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against the Issuing Lender, any Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or in the Letter of Credit Documents or any unrelated transaction; (D) any breach of contract or dispute between the Borrower, the Issuing Lender, any Lender or any other Person; (E) any demand, statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein or made in connection therewith being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever; (F) any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of a Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit; (G) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (H) any other act, omission to act, delay or circumstance whatsoever that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable defense to or discharge of the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section or Section 13.9., but not in limitation of the Borrower’s unconditional obligation to reimburse the Issuing Lender for any drawing made under a Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, the Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify the Issuing Lender or any Lender in respect of any liability incurred by the Issuing Lender or a Lender to the extent such liability arises out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or a Lender in respect of a Letter of Credit as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section, nothing in this Section shall affect any rights the Borrower may have with respect to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit.

 

(h)           Amendments, Etc.  The issuance by the Issuing Lender of any amendment, supplement or other modification to any Letter of Credit shall be subject to the same conditions applicable under this Agreement to the issuance of new Letters of Credit (including, without limitation, that the request therefor be made through the Agent), and no such amendment, supplement or other modification shall be issued unless either (i) the respective Letter of Credit affected thereby would have complied with such conditions had it originally been issued hereunder in such amended, supplemented or modified form or (ii) the Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders shall have consented thereto.  In connection with any such amendment, supplement or other modification, the Borrower shall pay the Fees, if any, payable under the last sentence of Section 3.6.(b).

 

(i)            Revolving Loan Lenders’ Participation in Letters of Credit.  Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Lender of any Letter of Credit each Revolving Loan Lender 

 

42











 

shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received from the Issuing Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the liability of the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit, and each Revolving Loan Lender thereby shall absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably assume, as primary obligor and not as surety, and shall be unconditionally obligated to the Issuing Lender to pay and discharge when due, such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of the Issuing Lender’s liability under such Letter of Credit.  In addition, upon the making of each payment by a Revolving Loan Lender to the Issuing Lender in respect of any Letter of Credit pursuant to the immediately following subsection (j), such Revolving Loan Lender shall, automatically and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Lender or such Revolving Loan Lender, acquire (i) a participation in an amount equal to such payment in the Reimbursement Obligation owing to the Issuing Lender by the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit and (ii) a participation in a percentage equal to such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage in any interest or other amounts payable by the Borrower in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation (other than the Fees payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to the fourth and last sentences of Section 3.6.(b)).

 

(j)            Payment Obligation of Revolving Loan Lenders.  Each Revolving Loan Lender severally agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender on demand in immediately available funds in Dollars the amount of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of each drawing paid by the Issuing Lender under each Letter of Credit to the extent such amount is not reimbursed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.4.(d); provided, however, that in respect of any drawing under any Letter of Credit, the maximum amount that any Revolving Loan Lender shall be required to fund, whether as a Revolving Loan or as a participation, shall not exceed such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage of such drawing.  If the notice referenced in the second sentence of Section 2.4.(e) is received by a Revolving Loan Lender not later than 11:00 a.m., then such Revolving Loan Lender shall make such payment available to the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date of demand therefor; otherwise, such payment shall be made available to the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender not later than 1:00 p.m. on the next succeeding Business Day.  Each such Revolving Loan Lender’s obligation to make such payments to the Issuing Lender under this subsection, and the Issuing Lender’s right to receive the same, shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be affected in any way by any circumstance whatsoever, including without limitation, (i) the failure of any other Revolving Loan Lender to make its payment under this subsection, (ii) the financial condition of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, (iii) the existence of any Default or Event of Default, including any Event of Default described in Section 11.1.(f) or 11.1.(g) or (iv) the termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments.  Each such payment to the Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or deduction whatsoever.

 

(k)           Information to Lenders.  The Issuing Lender shall periodically deliver to the Revolving Loan Lenders information setting forth the Stated Amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.  Other than as set forth in this subsection and the obligations set forth in this section with respect to notices to the Agent, the Issuing Lender shall have no duty to notify the Lenders regarding the issuance or other matters regarding Letters of Credit issued hereunder.  The failure of the Issuing Lender to perform its requirements under this subsection shall not relieve any Lender from its obligations under Section 2.4.(j).

 

43











 

Section 2.5.                                Rates and Payment of Interest on Loans.

 

(a)           Rates.  The Borrower promises to pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by such Lender for the period from and including the date of the making of such Loan to but excluding the date such Loan shall be paid in full, at the following per annum rates:

 

(i)            during such periods as such Revolving Loan is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable Margin for such Loans;

 

(ii)           during such periods as such Revolving Loan is a LIBOR Loan, at Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor plus the Applicable Margin for such Loans;

 

(iii)          during such periods as such Term Loan A is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable Margin for such Term Loans A;

 

(iv)          during such periods as such Term Loan A is a LIBOR Loan, at Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor plus the Applicable Margin for such Term Loans A;

 

(v)           during such periods as such Term Loan B is a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate (as in effect from time to time) plus the Applicable Margin for such Term Loans B; and

 

(vi)          during such periods as such Term Loan B is a LIBOR Loan, at Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan for the Interest Period therefor plus the Applicable Margin for such Term Loans B;

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender interest at the Post Default Rate on the outstanding principal amount of any Loan made by such Lender, on all Reimbursement Obligations and on any other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder or under the Notes held by such Lender to or for the account of such Lender (including without limitation, accrued but unpaid interest to the extent permitted under Applicable Law).

 

(b)           Payment of Interest.  Accrued and unpaid interest on each Loan shall be payable in the case of both Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans, monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month and upon the Revolving Loan Termination Date with respect to Revolving Loans, the Term Loan A Termination Date with respect to Term Loans A, the Term Loan B Termination Date with respect to Term Loans B, or any earlier date on which Loans are due and payable in full, whether by acceleration or otherwise.  Interest payable at the Post Default Rate shall be payable from time to time on demand.  Promptly after the determination of any interest rate provided for herein or any change therein, the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders to which such interest is payable and to the Borrower.  All determinations by the Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on the Lenders and the Borrower for all purposes, absent manifest error.

 

44











 

Section 2.6.                                Number of Interest Periods.

 

There may be no more than 10 different Interest Periods for LIBOR Loans outstanding at the same time.

 

Section 2.7.                                Repayment of Loans.

 

The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, the Revolving Loans on the Revolving Loan Termination Date, subject to any earlier dates on which mandatory principal payments may be required under Section 2.8(b).  The Borrower shall repay the entire outstanding principal amount of, and all accrued but unpaid interest on, (a) the Term Loans A on the Term Loan A Termination Date and (b) the Term Loans B on the Term Loan B Termination Date, subject in either case to any earlier dates on which mandatory principal payments may be required under Section 2.8(b).

 

Section 2.8.                                Prepayments.

 

(a)           Optional.  Subject to Section 5.4., the Borrower may prepay any Loan at any time without premium or penalty.  For purposes of clarity, the Borrower may prepay all or any part of the Term Loans A without making a prepayment on the Term Loans B and the Borrower may prepay all or any part of the Term Loans B without making a prepayment on the Term Loans A. The Borrower shall give the Agent at least one Business Day’s prior written notice of the prepayment of any Revolving Loan.  The Borrower shall give the Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., Cleveland time, at least three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as the Agent may agree) prior written notice of any prepayment of the Term Loan pursuant to this Section 2.8., in each case specifying the Term Loan (Term Loan A and/or Term Loan B) to be prepaid, the proposed date of payment of the Term Loan and the principal amount to be paid.

 

(b)           Mandatory.

 

(i)            Outstandings In Excess of Revolving Loan Commitments.  If at any time the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans, exceeds the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments in effect at such time, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent for the accounts of the Revolving Loan Lenders the amount of such excess; and

 

(ii)           Outstandings in Excess of Limits.  If at any time the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Unsecured Indebtedness of the Parent, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries (including, without limitation the outstanding principal balance of the Loans, together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities), would cause a Default or Event of Default under Section 10.1. (g) or (h), then the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of the Agent’s demand, pay the amount of such excess, at its choice, either to reduce such Unsecured Indebtedness or to the Agent for the account of the Lenders for application first to the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities and second to the Term Loans (pro rata among Term Loans A and Term Loans B).  All payments under this Section shall be applied to pay all amounts of principal outstanding on the Loans (as applicable) and any Reimbursement Obligations pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. and if any Letters of Credit are outstanding at such time the remainder, if any, shall be deposited into the Collateral Account 

 

45











 

for application to any Reimbursement Obligations.  If the Borrower is required to pay any outstanding LIBOR Loans by reason of this Section prior to the end of the applicable Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall pay all amounts due under Section 5.4.

 

Section 2.9.                                Continuation.

 

So long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist, the Borrower may on any Business Day, with respect to any LIBOR Loan, elect to maintain such LIBOR Loan or any portion thereof as a LIBOR Loan by selecting a new Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each new Interest Period selected under this Section shall commence on the last day of the immediately preceding Interest Period.  Each selection of a new Interest Period shall be made by the Borrower giving to the Agent a Notice of Continuation not later than 11:00 a.m. on the third Business Day prior to the date of any such Continuation.  Such notice by the Borrower of a Continuation shall be by telephone or telecopy, confirmed immediately in writing if by telephone, in the form of a Notice of Continuation, specifying (a) the proposed date of such Continuation, (b) the LIBOR Loans and portions thereof subject to such Continuation and (c) the duration of the selected Interest Period, all of which shall be specified in such manner as is necessary to comply with all limitations on Loans outstanding hereunder.  Each Notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Continuation, the Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Continuation.  If the Borrower shall fail to select in a timely manner a new Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan in accordance with this Section, or if a Default or Event of Default shall exist, such Loan will automatically, on the last day of the current Interest Period therefor, Convert into a Base Rate Loan notwithstanding the first sentence of Section 2.10. or the Borrower’s failure to comply with any of the terms of such Section.

 

Section 2.10.                         Conversion.

 

The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon the Borrower’s giving of a Notice of Conversion to the Agent, Convert all or a portion of a Loan of one Type into a Loan of another Type; provided, however, a Base Rate Loan may not be Converted to a LIBOR Loan if a Default or Event of Default shall exist.  Any Conversion of a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan shall be made on, and only on, the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan.  Each such Notice of Conversion shall be given not later than 11:00 a.m. on the Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into Base Rate Loans and on the third Business Day prior to the date of any proposed Conversion into LIBOR Loans.  Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion, the Agent shall notify each applicable Lender by telecopy, or other similar form of transmission, of the proposed Conversion.  Subject to the restrictions specified above, each Notice of Conversion shall be by telephone (confirmed immediately in writing) or telecopy in the form of a Notice of Conversion specifying (a) the requested date of such Conversion, (b) the Type of Loan to be Converted, (c) the portion of such Type of Loan to be Converted, (d) the Type of Loan such Loan is to be Converted into and (e) if such Conversion is into a LIBOR Loan, the requested duration of the Interest Period of such Loan.  Each Notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable by and binding on the Borrower once given.

Section 2.11.                         Notes.

 

(a)           Revolving Note.  If requested by any Revolving Loan Lender, the Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Loan Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit H (each a “Revolving Note”), payable to the order of such Revolving Loan Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Revolving Loan Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.

 

(b)           Term Loan Notes.

 

(i)            If requested by any Term Loan A Lender, the Term Loans A made by such Term Loan A Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 (each a “Term Loan A Note”), payable to the order of such Term Loan A Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Term Loan A Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.

 

(ii)           If requested by any Term Loan B Lender, the Term Loans B made by such Term Loan B Lender shall, in addition to this Agreement, also be evidenced by a promissory note of the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit I-2 (each a “Term Loan B Note”), payable to the order of such Term Loan B Lender in a principal amount equal to the amount of its Term Loan B Commitment as originally in effect and otherwise duly completed.

 

(c)           Records.  The date, amount, interest rate, Type and duration of Interest Periods (if applicable) of each Loan made by each Lender to the Borrower, and each payment made on account of the principal thereof, shall be recorded by such Lender on its books and such entries shall be binding on the Borrower, absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of a Lender to make any such record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower under any of the Loan Documents.

 

(d)           Lost, Stolen, Destroyed or Mutilated Notes.  Upon receipt by the Borrower of (i) written notice from a Lender that a Note of such Lender has been lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated, and (ii) (A) in the case of loss, theft or destruction, an unsecured agreement of indemnity from such Lender in form reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower, or (B) in the case of mutilation, upon surrender and cancellation of such Note, the Borrower shall at its own expense execute and deliver to such Lender a new Note dated the date of such lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Note.

 

(e)           No Novation.  There shall not be deemed to have occurred, and there has not otherwise occurred, any payment, satisfaction or novation of the indebtedness evidenced by the accounts, records, “Revolving Notes” or “Swingline Note”, as applicable, as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, which indebtedness under such Revolving Notes is instead allocated among the Revolving Loan Lenders as of the date hereof in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages and indebtedness under such Swingline Note is instead allocated to the Swingline Lender as of the date hereof and evidenced by the Swingline Note, or of the indebtedness evidenced by the accounts, records or “Term Loan Notes,” as applicable, as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, which indebtedness is instead allocated among the Term Loan A Lenders as of the date hereof in accordance with their respective Term

Loan A Commitment Percentages.  On the Effective Date, the Revolving Loan Lenders and the Term Loan A Lenders shall make adjustments among themselves so that the outstanding Revolving Loans and Term Loans A, respectively, are consistent with their Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages and Term Loan A Commitment Percentages, respectively.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Term Loans under the Existing Credit Agreement that are being repaid on the date hereof, all interest and fees accrued prior to the date of this Agreement under provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall remain payable at the rates set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement and shall be paid under this Agreement at the next payment date on which interest on such fees are payable.

The Borrower shall have the right to terminate or reduce the aggregate unused amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments (for which purpose use of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be deemed to include the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Liabilities and the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Swingline Loans) at any time and from time to time without penalty or premium upon not less than three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Agent of each such termination or reduction, which notice shall specify the effective date thereof and the amount of any such reduction and shall be irrevocable once given and effective only upon receipt by the Agent; provided, however, if the Borrower seeks to reduce the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments below $100,000,000, then the Revolving Loan Commitments shall all automatically and permanently be reduced to zero.  The Agent will promptly transmit such notice to each Revolving Loan Lender.  The Revolving Loan Commitments, once terminated or reduced may not be increased or reinstated.

exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Agent at least 90 days prior to the current Revolving Loan Termination Date, a written request for such extension (a “Revolving Loan Extension Request”).  The Agent shall forward to each Revolving Loan Lender a copy of the Revolving Loan Extension Request delivered to the Agent promptly upon receipt thereof.

(ii)           In the event that the Revolving Loan Termination Date has been extended as provided in Section 2.13.(b)(i), the Borrower shall have the right, exercisable one time, to extend the Revolving Loan Termination Date by six (6) months to July 28, 2021.  The Borrower may exercise such right only by executing and delivering to the Agent at least 90 days prior to the current Revolving Loan Termination Date, a Revolving Loan Extension Request.  The Agent shall forward to each Revolving Loan Lender a copy of the Revolving Loan Extension Request delivered to the Agent promptly upon receipt thereof.  Subject to satisfaction of the following conditions, the Revolving Loan Termination Date shall be extended for six (6) months to July 28, 2021:  (A) at the time of such notice, immediately prior to such extension and immediately after giving effect thereto, (1) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and (2) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower and each other Loan Party in the Loan Documents to which any of them is a party, shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such extension with the same force and effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Loan Documents and (B) the Borrower shall have paid the Fees payable under Section 3.6.(c).

If on the date the Revolving Loan Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero (whether voluntarily, by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default or otherwise), there are any Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder with respect to which the Borrower has not complied with the conditions set forth in the second proviso of the second sentence of Section 2.4.(b) the Borrower shall, on such date, pay to the Agent an amount of money equal to the Stated Amount of such Letter(s) of Credit for deposit into the Collateral Account.

 

49











 

Section 2.15.                         Amount Limitations.

 

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Revolving Loan Lender shall be required to make a Revolving Loan or to purchase a participation in a Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12. shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Revolving Loan or purchase of such participation, the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitments, the aggregate amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Liabilities would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Loan Commitments.

 

Notwithstanding any other term of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, no Lender shall be required to make a Loan and the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue a Letter of Credit and no reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to Section 2.12. shall take effect, if immediately after the making of such Loan, the issuance of such Letter of Credit or such reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitments, the aggregate principal amount of all Unsecured Indebtedness of the Parent, the Borrower and their respective Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, outstanding Loans together with the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities) would cause a Default or Event of Default under Section 10.1.(g) or (h).

 

Section 2.16.                         Increase of Commitments.

 

The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time during the term of this Agreement to request increases in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments (provided that after giving effect to any increases in the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments may not exceed $1,000,000,000) and/or increases in the aggregate amount of the Term Loan B Commitments (provided that after giving effect to any increases in the Term Loan B Commitments pursuant to this Section, the aggregate amount of the Term Loan B Commitments may not exceed $400,000,000) by providing written notice to the Agent.  Each such increase in a Commitment must be in an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.  No Lender shall be required to increase its Commitment and any new Lender becoming a party to this Agreement in connection with any such requested increase must be an Eligible Assignee.  If a new Revolving Loan Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, or if any existing Revolving Loan Lender agrees to increase its Revolving Loan Commitment, such Revolving Loan Lender shall on the date it becomes a Revolving Loan Lender hereunder (or increases its Revolving Loan Commitment, in the case of an existing Revolving Loan Lender) (and as a condition thereto) purchase from the other Revolving Loan Lenders its Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage (as determined after giving effect to the increase of Revolving Loan Commitments) of any outstanding Revolving Loans, by making available to the Agent for the account of such other Revolving Loan Lenders at the Principal Office, in same day funds, an amount equal to the sum of (A) the portion of the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans to be purchased by such Revolving Loan Lender plus (B) the aggregate amount of payments previously made by the other Revolving Loan Lenders under Section 2.3.(e) and Section 2.4.(j) which have not been repaid plus (C) interest accrued and unpaid to and as of such date on such portion of the outstanding principal amount of

 

50












 

such Revolving Loans.  The Borrower shall pay to the Revolving Loan Lenders amounts payable, if any, to such Revolving Loan Lenders under Section 5.4. as a result of the prepayment of any such Revolving Loans.  If a new Term Loan B Lender becomes a party to this Agreement in order to provide such additional Term Loan B Commitment, or if any existing Term Loan B Lender agrees to increase its Term Loan B Commitment, such Term Loan B Lender shall on the date it becomes a Term Loan B Lender hereunder (or increases its Term Loan B Commitment, in the case of an existing Term Loan B Lender) make Term Loans B to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount equal to such new Term Loan B Lender’s Term Loan B Commitment (or the amount of the increase in its Term Loan B Commitment, in the case of an existing Term Loan B Lender), by making available for the account of its applicable Lending Office to the Agent at the Principal Office, in immediately available funds, in an aggregate principal amount equal to such new Term Loan B Lender’s Term Loan B Commitment (or the amount of the increase in its Term Loan B Commitment, in the case of an existing Term Loan B Lender).  Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.16. and Section 6.2., the Agent will make the proceeds of such borrowing available to the Borrower at the account specified by Borrower.  No increase of the Commitments may be effected under this Section if (x) a Default or Event of Default shall be in existence on the effective date of such increase (and if the Term Loan B Commitments are being increased, no Default or Event of Default would arise after giving pro forma effect to such increase) or (y) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Borrower or any other Loan Party in any Loan Document to which any such Loan Party is a party is not (or would not be) true or correct in all material respects on the effective date of such increase (except for representations or warranties which expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date) and except for changes in factual circumstances not prohibited under the Loan Documents).  In connection with any increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments pursuant to this subsection, (a) any Lender becoming a party hereto shall execute such documents and agreements as the Agent may reasonably request and (b) the Borrower shall, if requested by the affected Lender, make appropriate arrangements so that each new Lender, and any existing Lender increasing its Commitment, receives a new or replacement Note, as appropriate, in the amount of such Lender’s Commitment within 2 Business Days of the effectiveness of the applicable increase in the aggregate amount of Commitments.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any increase of Commitments under this Section 2.16., the Agent may (without the consent of any Lender) amend this Agreement to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the increase of Commitments.

52











 

Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Term Loans A held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Term Loans A the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans A shall not be held by the Term Loan A Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Term Loan A Commitments in effect at the time such Term Loans A were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Term Loans A in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans A being held by the Term Loan A Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Term Loan A Commitments; (j) each payment or prepayment of principal of Term Loans B by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Term Loan B Lenders pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid principal amounts of the Term Loans B, as applicable, held by them, provided that if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment in respect of any Term Loans B the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans B shall not be held by the Term Loan B Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Term Loan B Commitments in effect at the time such Term Loans B were made, then such payment shall be applied to the Term Loans B in such manner as shall result, as nearly as is practicable, in the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans B being held by the Term Loan B Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Term Loan B Commitments; (k) each payment of interest on Term Loans A or Term Loans B by the Borrower shall be made for the account of the Term Loan A Lenders or Term Loan B Lenders, as the case may be, pro rata in accordance with the amounts of interest on such Term Loans A and Term Loans B, as they case may be, then due and payable to the respective Term Loan A Lenders and Term Loan B Lenders; and (l) the making, Conversion and Continuation of Term Loans of a particular Type (other than Conversions provided for by Section 5.5.) shall be made pro rata among the Term Loan A Lenders and Term Loan B Lenders, as the case may be, according to the amounts of their respective Term Loan A Commitments or Term Loan B Commitments (in the case of making of the Term Loans A and the Term Loans B) or their respective Term Loans A or Term Loans B (in the case of Conversions and Continuations of Term Loans A and Term Loans B) and the then current Interest Period for each Term Loan A Lender’s portion of each Term Loan A or Term Loan B Lender’s portion of each Term Loan B of such Type shall be coterminous.  All payments of principal, interest, fees and other amounts in respect of the Swingline Loans shall be for the account of the Swingline Lender only (except to the extent any Revolving Loan Lender shall have acquired a participating interest in any such Swingline Loan pursuant to Section 2.3.(e), in which case such payments shall be pro rata in accordance with such participating interests).

 

(b)           Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.2., if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, each payment by the Borrower hereunder shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.11.(d).

 

Section 3.3.                                Sharing of Payments, Etc.

 

If a Lender shall obtain payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan made by it to the Borrower under this Agreement, or shall obtain payment on any other Obligation owing by the Borrower or a Loan Party through the exercise of any right of set off, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise or through voluntary prepayments directly to a Lender or other payments made by the Borrower to a Lender not in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and such payment should be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 11.4., as applicable, such Lender shall promptly purchase from the other 

 

53











 

Lenders participations in (or, if and to the extent specified by such Lender, direct interests in) the Loans made by the other Lenders or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all the Lenders shall share the benefit of such payment (net of any reasonable expenses which may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such benefit) pro rata in accordance with Section 3.2. or Section 11.4., as applicable.  To such end, all the Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participations sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.  The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation (or direct interest) in the Loans or other Obligations owed to such other Lenders may exercise all rights of set off, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans in the amount of such participation.  Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any such right or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other indebtedness or obligation of the Borrower.

(a)           Borrowings and Conversions.  Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.3.(e) and 2.4.(e), each borrowing of Base Rate Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof.  Each borrowing and each Conversion of LIBOR Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess of that amount.

(i) During the period from the Effective Date to but excluding the Revolving Loan Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Loan Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders an unused facility fee (the “Unused Fee”) with respect to the average daily difference between (i) the aggregate 

 

54











 

principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans plus the aggregate amount of all Letter of Credit Liabilities and (ii) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loan Commitments (the “Unused Amount”).  Such fee shall be computed by multiplying the Unused Amount with respect to such quarter by the corresponding per annum rate set forth below:

Any such accrued and unpaid fee shall also be payable on the Revolving Loan Termination Date or any earlier date of termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments to zero.

 

(ii)           From and after the date that Administrative Agent receives written notice from Borrower that Parent or Borrower has an Investment Grade Rating from a Rating Agency and that Borrower has elected to use such Investment Grade Rating as the basis for the Applicable Margin, the fee payable pursuant to Section 3.6.(a)(i) shall no longer accrue (but any accrued fee shall be payable as provided in Section 3.6.(a)(i)), and from and thereafter, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Loan Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages a facility fee (the “Facility Fee”) calculated at the rate per annum set forth below based upon the applicable Credit Rating Level on the aggregate actual daily amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment:

Such fee shall be calculated for each day and shall be payable in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December of each calendar year.  Any such accrued but unpaid fee shall also be payable on the Revolving Loan Termination Date or any earlier date of termination of the Revolving Loan Commitments or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments to zero.  Such fee shall be determined by reference to the Credit Rating Level in effect from time to time; provided, however, that no change in the rate of such fee resulting from a change in the Credit Rating Level shall be effective until three (3) Business Days after the date on which the Administrative Agent receives written notice of a change pursuant to Section 9.4.(o) or receives written notice from the applicable Rating Agency of a change in such Credit Rating Level, or otherwise confirms such change through information made publicly available by such Rating Agency.

(b)           Letter of Credit Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of the Revolving Loan Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders a letter of credit fee at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for LIBOR Loans that are Revolving Loans times the daily average Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (x) through and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated or (y) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full. Notwithstanding the foregoing, during the continuance of an Event of Default, the foregoing Letter of Credit fees shall be payable at a rate equal to the amount as calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence plus two percent (2%).  The fees provided for in the immediately preceding sentence shall be nonrefundable and payable in arrears on (i) the last day of March, June, September and December in each year, (ii) the Revolving Loan Termination Date, (iii) the date the Revolving Loan Commitments are terminated or reduced to zero and (iv) thereafter from time to time on demand of the Issuing Lender.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account and not the account of any Revolving Loan Lender, an issuance fee in respect of each Letter of Credit equal to the greater of (i) $1,500 or (ii) one eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum on the initial Stated Amount of such Letter of Credit for the period from and including the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (A) through and including the date such Letter of Credit expires or is terminated or (B) to but excluding the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full.  The fees provided for in the immediately preceding sentence shall be nonrefundable and payable upon issuance.  The Borrower shall pay directly to the Issuing Lender from time to time on demand all commissions, charges, costs and expenses in the amounts customarily charged by the Issuing Lender from time to time in like circumstances with respect to the issuance of each Letter of Credit, drawings, amendments and other transactions relating thereto.

 

(c)           Extension Fee.  (i) If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Term Loan A Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.13.(a), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Term Loan A Lender a fee equal to seven and one-half (7.5) basis points (0.075%) of the amount of such Term Loan A Lender’s Term Loan A Commitment at the time of such extension.  Such fee shall be due and payable in full on the date such extension of the Term Loan A Termination Date is set to begin and as a condition to such extension.

 

(ii)           If the Borrower exercises its right to extend the Revolving Loan Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.13.(b), the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent for the account of each Revolving Loan Lender a fee equal to seven and one-half (7.5) basis points (0.075%) of the amount of each such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment (whether or not utilized) at the time of each such extension.  Such fee shall be due and payable in full on the date such extension of the Revolving Loan Termination Date is set to begin and as a condition to such extension.

 

(d)           Administrative and Other Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay the administrative and other fees of the Agent as may be agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Agent from time to time.

 

Section 3.7.                                Computations.

 

Unless otherwise expressly set forth herein, any accrued interest on any Loan, any Fees or any other Obligations due hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 

 

56











 

days, as applicable, and the actual number of days elapsed; provided, however, interest on LIBOR Loans shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of day elapsed.

 

Section 3.8.                                Usury.

 

In no event shall the amount of interest due or payable on the Loans or other Obligations exceed the maximum rate of interest allowed by Applicable Law and, if any such payment is paid by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or received by any Lender, then such excess sum shall be credited as a payment of principal, unless the Borrower shall notify the respective Lender in writing that the Borrower elects to have such excess sum returned to it forthwith.  It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the Borrower not pay and the Lenders not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may be lawfully paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

 

Section 3.9.                                Agreement Regarding Interest and Charges.

 

The parties hereto hereby agree and stipulate that the only charge imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement is and shall be the interest specifically described in Section 2.5.(a)(i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) and in Section 2.3.(c) and, if applicable, interest at the Post Default Rate as provided in this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto further agree and stipulate that all agency fees, syndication fees, unused fees, facility fees, closing fees, letter of credit fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by the Agent or any Lender to third parties or for damages incurred by the Agent or any Lender, in each case in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, are charges made to compensate the Agent or any such Lender for underwriting or administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed or incurred, by the Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Agreement and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money.  All charges other than charges for the use of money shall be fully earned and nonrefundable when due.

 

Section 3.10.                         Statements of Account.

 

The Agent will account to the Borrower monthly with a statement of Loans, Letters of Credit, accrued interest and Fees, charges and payments made pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and such account rendered by the Agent shall be deemed conclusive upon Borrower absent manifest error.  The failure of the Agent to deliver such a statement of accounts shall not relieve or discharge the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 3.11.                         Defaulting Lenders.

 

(a)           Generally.  If for any reason any Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender, then, in addition to the rights and remedies that may be available to the Agent or the Borrower under this Agreement or Applicable Law, such Defaulting Lender’s right to participate in the administration of the Loans, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including without limitation, any right to vote in respect of, to consent to or to direct any action or inaction of the Agent or to be taken into account in the calculation of the Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, the 

 

57











 

Requisite Lenders or all of the Lenders, shall be suspended during the pendency of such failure or refusal.  If a Lender is a Defaulting Lender because it has failed to make timely payment to the Agent of any amount required to be paid to the Agent hereunder (without giving effect to any notice or cure periods), in addition to other rights and remedies which the Agent or the Borrower may have under the immediately preceding provisions or otherwise, the Agent shall be entitled (i) to collect interest from such Defaulting Lender on such delinquent payment for the period from the date on which the payment was due until the date on which the payment is made at the Federal Funds Rate, (ii) to withhold or setoff and to apply in satisfaction of the defaulted payment and any related interest, any amounts otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (iii) to bring an action or suit against such Defaulting Lender in a court of competent jurisdiction to recover the defaulted amount and any related interest.  Any amounts received by the Agent in respect of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans shall be paid applied as set forth in Section 3.11.(d).

 

(b)           Purchase or Cancellation of Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  Any Non-Defaulting Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, in its sole discretion, to acquire all of a Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  Any Lender desiring to exercise such right shall give written notice thereof to the Agent and the Borrower no sooner than 2 (two) Business Days and not later than 5 (five) Business Days after such Defaulting Lender became a Defaulting Lender.  If more than one Lender exercises such right, each such Lender shall have the right to acquire an amount of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment in proportion to the Commitments of the other Lenders exercising such right.  If after such 5th (fifth) Business Day, the Lenders have not elected to purchase all of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, by giving written notice thereof to the Agent, such Defaulting Lender and the other Lenders, either (i) demand that such Defaulting Lender assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.5.(d) for the purchase price provided for below or (ii) terminate the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, whereupon such Defaulting Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.  Upon the termination of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment, the Borrower may, at its option but subject to first obtaining Agent’s prior written approval, which may be granted in its sole discretion, notwithstanding the provisions in Section 3.2., make a payment to the Defaulting Lender in an amount equal to the principal balance of the Loans outstanding, accrued interest and other fees owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender.  No party hereto shall have any obligation whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  Upon any such purchase or assignment, the Defaulting Lender’s interest in the Loans and its rights hereunder (but not its liability in respect thereof or under the Loan Documents or this Agreement to the extent the same relate to the period prior to the effective date of the purchase) shall terminate on the date of purchase, and the Defaulting Lender shall promptly execute all documents reasonably requested to surrender and transfer such interest to the purchaser or assignee thereof, including an appropriate Assignment and Acceptance Agreement.  The purchase price for the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender shall be equal to the amount of the principal balance of the Loans outstanding and owed by the Borrower to the Defaulting Lender.  Prior to payment of such purchase price to a Defaulting Lender, the Agent shall apply against such purchase price any amounts retained by the Agent pursuant to Section 3.11.(d).  Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive amounts owed to it by the Borrower under the Loan Documents which accrued prior to the date of the default by the Defaulting Lender, to the extent the same are received by the Agent from or on behalf of the Borrower.  There shall be no recourse against any Lender or the Agent for the payment of such 

 

58











 

sums except to the extent of the receipt of payments from any other party or in respect of the Loans.

 

(c)           Reallocation of Revolving Loan Commitment Percentage to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  During any period in which there is a Revolving Loan Lender that is a Defaulting Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3.(e) and Section 2.4.(i) shall be reallocated among the Revolving Loan Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages (computed without giving effect to the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided that (i) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists, (ii) the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1. and 6.2, are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have notified the Agent at such time, the Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at that time), (iii) the representations and warranties set forth in Article VII hereof shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of such reallocation with the same effect as though made on and as of such date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, and (iv) the aggregate obligation of each Revolving Loan Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (A) the Revolving Loan Commitment of that Non-Defaulting Lender minus (B) the sum of (1) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans of that Revolving Loan Lender plus (2) such Revolving Loan Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with its Revolving Loan Commitment of (x) outstanding Swingline Loans and (y) outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities.  Subject to Section 13.20., no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

 

(d)           Reallocation of Payments.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.3.), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows:  first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Agent (other than with respect to Letter of Credit Liabilities) hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lender (with respect to Letter of Credit Liabilities) and/or the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, if so determined by the Issuing Lender or requested by the Swingline Lender, to be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit; fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans or participations under this Agreement and (y) be held as cash collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit; sixth, to the payment of 

 

59











 

any amounts owing to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (i) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (ii) such Revolving Loans or funded participations in Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Sections 6.1. and 6.2., as applicable, were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of, and funded participations in Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, all Revolving Loan Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans are held by the Revolving Loan Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Revolving Loan Commitment Percentages without regard to Section 3.11.(c), prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of, or funded participations in Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit owed to, such Defaulting Lender.  Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 3.11.(d) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

 

(e)           Cash Collateral for Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans.  Within five (5) Business Days of demand by the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender from time to time, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, as applicable, cash collateral in an amount sufficient to cover all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender (after giving effect to Sections 2.3.(a), 2.4.(a) and 3.11.(c)) on terms satisfactory to the Issuing Lender and/or Swingline Lender in its good faith determination (and such cash collateral shall be in Dollars).  Any such cash collateral shall be deposited in the Collateral Account as collateral (solely for the benefit of the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender) for the payment and performance of each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments of outstanding Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Loans.  Moneys in the Collateral Account deposited pursuant to this section shall be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Lender and/or the Swingline Lender immediately for each Defaulting Lender’s pro rata portion in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments of any funding obligation with respect to a Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit which has not otherwise been reimbursed by the Borrower or such Defaulting Lender.

 

(f)            Prepayment of Swingline Loans.  Within one (1) Business Day of demand by the Swingline Lender or the Agent from time to time, the Borrower shall prepay Swingline Loans in an amount of all Fronting Exposure with respect to the Swingline Lender (after giving effect to Sections 2.3.(a) and 3.11.(c)).

 

60












 

(g)           Certain Fees.

 

(i)            Each Revolving Loan Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Fee or Facility Fee pursuant to Section 3.6.(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

 

(ii)           Each Revolving Loan Lender that is a Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive Letter of Credit fees pursuant to Section 3.6.(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender.

 

(iii)          With respect to any Unused Fee, Facility Fee or Letter of Credit fees not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Revolving Loan Lender that is a Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.11.(c), (y) pay to the Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (z) not be required to pay any remaining amount of any such fee.

 

(h)           Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrower, the Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Revolving Loan Lenders in accordance with their Revolving Loan Commitments (without giving effect to Section 3.11.(c)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

 

Section 3.12.                         Taxes.

 

(a)           Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower or other applicable Loan Party shall be increased as 

 

61











 

necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.12.) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

 

(b)           Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

 

(c)           Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower and the other Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.12.) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error; provided that the determinations in such statement are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

 

(d)           Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower or another Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.5.(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this subsection.

 

(e)           Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 3.12., the Borrower or such other Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

 

62











 

(f)            Status of Lenders.

 

(i)            Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in the immediately following clauses (ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D)) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

 

(ii)           Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person:

 

(A)          any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

 

(B)          any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

 

(I)            in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

 

(II)          an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

 

(III)        in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Foreign 

 

63











 

Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN; or

 

(IV)         to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of an executed IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

 

(C)          any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), an electronic copy (or an original if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

 

(D)          if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

 

(g)           Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has 

 

64











 

been indemnified pursuant to this Section 3.12. (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.12.), 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 3.12. 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 subsection (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 subsection, in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this subsection 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 has not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection 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 reasonably deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

 

(h)           Survival.  Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.12. shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

 

(i)            Right to Replace Lender.  If (x) a Lender requests compensation pursuant to this Section 3.12. or Section 5.1. and the Requisite Lenders are not also doing the same, (y) a Lender’s obligations with respect to LIBOR Loans are suspended pursuant to Section 5.1.(b) or Section 5.3. and the obligations of the Requisite Lenders are not also suspended or (z) in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent which requires the approval of each Lender under Section 13.6.(b), and with respect to which approvals from the Requisite Lenders have been obtained, a Lender that has not given, or been deemed to have given, its approval of such matter, then, so long as there does not then exist any Event of Default, the Borrower may demand that such Lender (the “Affected Lender”), and upon such demand the Affected Lender shall promptly, assign its Commitment to an Eligible Assignee subject to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.5.(d) for a purchase price to be agreed on by the Affected Lender and the Eligible Assignee, but not in excess of the par value thereof.  Each of the Agent and the Affected Lender shall reasonably cooperate in effectuating the replacement of such Affected Lender under this subsection, but at no time shall the Agent, such Affected Lender nor any other Lender be obligated in any way whatsoever to initiate any such replacement or to assist in finding an Eligible Assignee.  The exercise by the Borrower of its rights under this subsection shall be at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to the Agent, the Affected Lender or any of the other Lenders.  The terms of this subsection shall not in any way limit the Borrower’s obligation to pay to any Affected Lender compensation owing to such Affected Lender pursuant to this Section 3.12., Section 5.1. or Section 5.4., as applicable, with respect to periods up to the date of replacement.

Section 4.1.                                Reserved.

 

Section 4.2.                                Conditions Precedent to a Property Becoming an Eligible Unencumbered Pool Property.

 

No Property shall become an Eligible Unencumbered Pool Property until the Borrower shall have caused to be executed and delivered to the Agent, if such Property is owned by a Subsidiary that is not already a Guarantor or any Subsidiary which owns an interest therein is liable with respect to Unsecured Indebtedness and such Subsidiaries are not exempted from being a Guarantor pursuant to Section 4.3.(b), (i) an Accession Agreement executed by such Subsidiary (or if no Subsidiary is then a party to the Guaranty, then the Guaranty executed by such Subsidiary), and (ii) all of the items that would have been required to be delivered to the Agent under Section 6.1.(a)(iv) through (vii) had such Subsidiary been a Loan Party on the Effective Date.

 

Section 4.3.                                Release of Guarantors and Unencumbered Pool Properties; Additional Guarantors.

 

(a)           (i)            From time to time the Borrower may request, upon not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Agent (or such shorter period as the Agent may agree in its sole discretion), that a Subsidiary that is a Guarantor solely pursuant to Section 4.3.(c) be released from the Guaranty, which release (the “Release”) shall be effected by the Agent if all of the following conditions are satisfied as of the date of such Release:

 

(ii)           no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing or would occur or exist immediately after giving effect to such Release; and

 

(iii)          Administrative Agent shall have received evidence satisfactory to it (which evidence may be in the form of a certificate from an officer of the Borrower certifying thereto) that such Subsidiary has not created, incurred, acquired, assumed, or suffered to exist and is not otherwise liable (whether as a borrower, co-borrower, guarantor or otherwise) with respect to any Unsecured Indebtedness (or simultaneously with the release hereunder will be released from liability with respect to such Unsecured Indebtedness).  Nothing in this Section 4.3.(a) shall authorize the release of Parent from the Springing Guaranty.

 

(b)           [Reserved].

 

(c)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Subsidiary of Borrower shall create, incur, acquire, assume, suffer to exist or is or becomes otherwise liable with respect to any Unsecured Indebtedness, whether as a borrower, co-borrower, guarantor or otherwise, then Borrower shall simultaneously cause such Subsidiary to become a Guarantor and to deliver to Agent an Accession Agreement (or if no Subsidiary is then a party to the Guaranty, then the Guaranty executed by such Subsidiary) and the other documents required by Section 4.2. to be delivered with respect to a new Guarantor.

 

66











 

In connection with any such release, Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to Borrower, at Borrower’s expense, all documents that Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

 

Section 4.4.                                Frequency of Calculations of Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio.

 

Initially, the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio shall be the amount set forth as such in the Compliance Certificate delivered under Section 6.1.  Thereafter, the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio shall be the amount set forth as such in the Compliance Certificate delivered from time to time under Section 4.3.(a), 4.5. or 9.4.(g).  Any increase in the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio shall become effective as of the next determination of the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio as provided in this Section, provided that as of such date of determination the applicable Compliance Certificate substantiates such increase.

 

Section 4.5.                                Removal of Ineligible Property.

 

Upon any asset ceasing to qualify to be included as an Unencumbered Pool Property in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio, such asset shall no longer be included in the calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Value and the Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio.  Within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower becomes aware of any such disqualification, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a certificate reflecting such disqualification, together with the identity of the disqualified asset, a statement as to whether any Default or Event of Default will arise as a result of such disqualification after the Borrower has the opportunity to cure any such Default of Event of Default in accordance with the last paragraph of Section 11.1., and a calculation of the Unencumbered Pool Value and Net Operating Income attributable to such asset.  Simultaneously with the delivery of the items required above, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a pro forma Compliance Certificate and calculation of Unencumbered Pool Value and Unsecured Debt Interest Coverage Ratio demonstrating, after giving effect to such removal or disqualification and any reduction of the Loans in accordance with Section 11.1., compliance with the covenants contained in Section 10.1.

 

ARTICLE V.   YIELD PROTECTION, ETC.

 

Section 5.1.                                Additional Costs; Capital Adequacy.

 

(a)           Additional Costs.  The Borrower shall promptly pay to the Agent for the account of a Lender from time to time such amounts as such Lender may determine to be necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender that it determines are attributable to its making or maintaining of any Loans or its obligation to make any Loans hereunder, any reduction in any amount receivable by such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or such obligation or the maintenance by such Lender of capital or liquidity in respect of its Loans or its Commitment (such increases in costs and reductions in amounts receivable being herein called “Additional Costs”), to the extent resulting from any Regulatory Change that:  (i) changes the basis of 

 

67











 

taxation (other than for Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and Connection Income Taxes) of any amounts payable to such Lender under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in respect of any of such Loans or its Commitment; or (ii) imposes or modifies any reserve, special deposit or similar requirements (other than Regulation D of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System or other reserve requirement to the extent utilized in the determination of Adjusted LIBOR for such Loan) relating to any extensions of credit or other assets of, or any deposits with or other liabilities of, such Lender, or any commitment of such Lender (including, without limitation, the Commitment of such Lender hereunder); or (iii) has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on capital of such Lender to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (but subject to the terms of Section 3.12.) (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy).

 

(b)           Lender’s Suspension of LIBOR Loans.  Without limiting the effect of the provisions of the immediately preceding subsection (a), if, by reason of any Regulatory Change, any Lender either (i) incurs Additional Costs based on or measured by the excess above a specified level of the amount of a category of deposits or other liabilities of such Lender that includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on LIBOR Loans is determined as provided in this Agreement or a category of extensions of credit or other assets of such Lender that includes LIBOR Loans or (ii) becomes subject to restrictions on the amount of such a category of liabilities or assets that it may hold, then, if such Lender so elects by notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent), the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert any other Type of Loans into, LIBOR Loans hereunder shall be suspended until such Regulatory Change ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5. shall apply).

 

(c)           Additional Costs in Respect of Letters of Credit.  Without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the preceding subsections of this Section (but without duplication), if as a result of any Regulatory Change or any risk-based capital guideline or other requirement heretofore or hereafter issued by any Governmental Authority there shall be imposed, modified or deemed applicable any reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy, liquidity or similar requirement against or with respect to or measured by reference to Letters of Credit and the result shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Lender of issuing (or any Lender of purchasing participations in) or maintaining its obligation hereunder to issue (or purchase participations in) any Letter of Credit or reduce any amount receivable by the Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, upon demand by the Agent or such Lender, the Borrower shall pay promptly, and in any event within 3 Business Days of demand, to the Agent for its account or the account of such Lender, as applicable, from time to time as specified by the Agent or a Lender, such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate the Agent or such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amount.

 

(d)           Notification and Determination of Additional Costs.  Each of the Agent and each Lender agrees to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the Agreement Date entitling the Agent or such Lender to compensation under any of the preceding subsections of this Section as promptly as practicable; provided, however, the failure of the Agent or any Lender to give such notice shall not release the Borrower from any of its obligations hereunder (and in the case of a Lender, to the Agent); provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1.(d) for any Additional Costs 

 

68











 

incurred more than nine months prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Change giving rise to such Additional Costs, and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Regulatory Change giving rise to such Additional Costs is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).  The Agent or such Lender agrees to furnish to the Borrower (and in the case of a Lender, to the Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and amount of each request by the Agent or such Lender for compensation under this Section.  Absent manifest error, determinations by the Agent or any Lender of the effect of any Regulatory Change shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

 

Section 5.2.                                Suspension of LIBOR Loans.

 

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if, on or prior to the determination of Adjusted LIBOR for any Interest Period:

 

(a)           the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted LIBOR for such Interest Period, or

 

(b)           the Agent reasonably determines (which determination shall be conclusive) that Adjusted LIBOR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period;

 

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

 

Section 5.3.                                Illegality.

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall reasonably determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding) that it has become unlawful for such Lender to honor its obligation to make or maintain LIBOR Loans hereunder, then such Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower thereof (with a copy to the Agent) and such Lender’s obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert Loans of any other Type into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such time as such Lender may again make and maintain LIBOR Loans (in which case the provisions of Section 5.5. shall be applicable).

 

Section 5.4.                                Compensation.

 

The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of each Lender, upon the request of such Lender through the Agent, such amount or amounts as shall be sufficient (in the reasonable opinion of such Lender) to compensate it for any loss, cost or expense that such Lender reasonably determines is attributable to:

 

69











 

(a)           any payment or prepayment (whether mandatory or optional) of a LIBOR Loan, or Conversion of a LIBOR Loan, made by such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, acceleration) on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

 

(b)           any failure by the Borrower for any reason (including, without limitation, the failure of any of the applicable conditions precedent specified in Article VI. to be satisfied) to borrow a LIBOR Loan from such Lender on the requested date for such borrowing, or to Convert a Base Rate Loan into a LIBOR Loan or Continue a LIBOR Loan on the requested date of such Conversion or Continuation.

 

Upon the Borrower’s request, any Lender requesting compensation under this Section shall provide the Borrower with a statement setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation and the method for determining the amount thereof.  Absent manifest error, determinations by any Lender in any such statement shall be conclusive, provided that such determinations are made on a reasonable basis and in good faith.

 

Section 5.5.                                Treatment of Affected Loans.

 

If the obligation of any Lender to make LIBOR Loans or to Continue, or to Convert Base Rate Loans into, LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 5.1.(b) or 5.3., then such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically Converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of a Conversion required by Section 5.1.(b) or 5.3., on such earlier date as such Lender may specify to the Borrower with a copy to the Agent) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1. or 5.3. that gave rise to such Conversion no longer exist:

 

(a)           to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so Converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

 

(b)           all Loans that would otherwise be made or Continued by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or Continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be Converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

 

If such Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 5.1. or 5.3. that gave rise to the Conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, then such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically Converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Revolving Loans, Term Loans A or Term Loans B held by the applicable Lenders holding such LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, Types and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Revolving Loan Commitments, Term Loan A Commitments and Term Loan B Commitments, as applicable.

 

70












 

Section 5.6.                                Change of Lending Office.

 

Each Lender agrees that it will use reasonable efforts to designate an alternate Lending Office with respect to any of its Loans affected by the matters or circumstances described in Sections 3.12., 5.1. or 5.3. to reduce the liability of the Borrower or avoid the results provided thereunder, so long as such designation is not disadvantageous to such Lender as determined by such Lender in its sole discretion.

 

Section 5.7.                                Assumptions Concerning Funding of LIBOR Loans.

 

Calculation of all amounts payable to a Lender under this Article V. shall be made as though such Lender had actually funded  LIBOR Loans through the purchase of deposits in the relevant market bearing interest at the rate applicable to such LIBOR Loans in an amount equal to the amount of the LIBOR Loans and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its LIBOR Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be used only for calculation of amounts payable under this Article V.

ARTICLE VII.   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

Section 7.1.                                Representations and Warranties.

 

In order to induce the Agent and each Lender to enter into this Agreement and to make Loans, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Agent and each Lender as follows:

 

(a)           Organization; Power; Qualification.  Each of the Parent, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties and each other Subsidiary is a corporation, partnership or other legal entity, duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing under the jurisdiction of its incorporation or formation, has the power and authority to own or lease its respective properties and to carry on its respective business as now being and hereafter proposed to be conducted and is duly qualified and is in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or other legal entity, and authorized to do business, in each jurisdiction in which the character of its properties or the nature of its business requires such qualification or authorization and where the failure to be so qualified or authorized could reasonably be expected to have, in each instance, a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)           Ownership Structure.  As of the Agreement Date, Part I of Schedule 7.1.(b) is a complete and correct list of all Subsidiaries of the Parent setting forth for each such Subsidiary, (i) the jurisdiction of organization of such Subsidiary, (ii) each Person holding any Equity Interests in such Subsidiary, (iii) the nature of the Equity Interests held by each such Person, and (iv) the percentage of ownership of such Subsidiary represented by such Equity Interests.  Except as disclosed in such Schedule, as of the Agreement Date (i) each of the Parent and its Subsidiaries owns, free and clear of all Liens (other than Permitted Liens and other than Liens on Equity Interests of Subsidiaries of Borrower that do not directly or indirectly own interests in Unencumbered Pool Properties), and has the unencumbered right to vote, all outstanding Equity Interests in each Person shown to be held by it on such Schedule, (ii) all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of each such Person organized as a corporation is validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and (iii) there are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, commitments, preemptive rights or agreements of any kind (including, without limitation, any stockholders’ or voting trust agreements) for the issuance, sale, registration or voting of, or outstanding securities convertible into, any additional shares of capital stock of any class, or partnership or other ownership interests of any type in, any such Person.  As of the Agreement Date Part II of Schedule 7.1.(b) correctly sets forth all Unconsolidated Affiliates of the Parent, including the correct legal name of such Person, the type of legal entity which each such Person is, and all Equity Interests in such Person held directly or indirectly by the Parent.

 

(c)           Authorization of Agreement, Etc.  The Borrower has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to borrow and obtain other extensions of credit hereunder.  Each Loan Party has the right and power, and has taken all necessary action to authorize it, to execute, deliver and perform each of the Loan Documents to which it is a party in 

 

74











 

accordance with their respective terms and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.  The Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party have been duly executed and delivered by the duly authorized officers of such Person and each is a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Person enforceable against such Person in accordance with its respective terms except as the same may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally and the availability of equitable remedies for the enforcement of certain obligations (other than the payment of principal) contained herein or therein and as may be limited by equitable principles generally.

 

(d)           Compliance of Loan Documents with Laws, Etc.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents to which any Loan Party is a party in accordance with their respective terms and the borrowings and other extensions of credit hereunder do not and will not, by the passage of time, the giving of notice, or both:  (i) require any Governmental Approval or violate any Applicable Law (including all Environmental Laws) relating to any Loan Party; (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of or constitute a default under the organizational documents of any Loan Party, or any material indenture, agreement or other instrument to which any Loan Party is a party or by which it or any of its respective properties may be bound; or (iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon or with respect to any property now owned or hereafter acquired by any Loan Party (other than a Permitted Lien).

(g)           amounts due the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Sections 12.7. and 13.9.;

 

98











 

(h)           payments of all other Obligations and other amounts due and owing by the Borrower and the other Loan Parties under any of the Loan Documents, if any, to be applied for the ratable benefit of the Lenders; and

 

(i)            any amount remaining after application as provided above, shall be paid to the Borrower or whomever else may be legally entitled thereto.

 

Section 11.5.                         Collateral Account.

 

(a)           As collateral security for the prompt payment in full when due of all Letter of Credit Liabilities, Swingline Loans and the other Obligations, the Borrower hereby pledges and grants to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Agent and the Lenders as provided herein, a security interest in all of its right, title and interest in and to the Collateral Account and the balances from time to time in the Collateral Account (including the investments and reinvestments therein provided for below).  The balances from time to time in the Collateral Account shall not constitute payment of any Letter of Credit Liabilities or Swingline Loans until applied by the Agent as provided herein.  Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, funds held in the Collateral Account shall be subject to withdrawal only as provided in this Section.

 

(b)           Amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account shall be invested and reinvested by the Agent in such Cash Equivalents as the Agent shall determine in its sole discretion.  All such investments and reinvestments shall be held in the name of and be under the sole dominion and control of the Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders.  The Agent shall exercise reasonable care in the custody and preservation of any funds held in the Collateral Account and shall be deemed to have exercised such care if such funds are accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Agent accords other funds deposited with the Agent, it being understood that the Agent shall not have any responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any funds held in the Collateral Account.

 

(c)           If a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs on or prior to the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower and the Lenders authorize the Agent to use the monies deposited in the Collateral Account to make payment to the beneficiary with respect to such drawing or the payee with respect to such presentment or to reimburse the Issuing Lender with respect to such draw.  If a Swingline Loan is not refinanced as a Base Rate Loan as provided in Section 2.3.(e) above, then the Agent is authorized to use monies deposited in the Collateral Account to make payment to the Swingline Lender with respect to any participation not funded by a Defaulting Lender.

 

(d)           If an Event of Default exists, the Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders may, in their discretion, at any time and from time to time, instruct the Agent to liquidate any such investments and reinvestments and apply proceeds thereof to the Obligations in accordance with Section 11.4.

 

(e)           So long as no Default or Event of Default exists, and to the extent amounts on deposit in the Collateral Account exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities then due and owing and the pro rata share of any Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans of any Defaulting Lender after giving effect to Section 3.11.(c), the Agent shall, 

 

99











 

from time to time, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower within 10 Business Days after the Agent’s receipt of such request from the Borrower, against receipt but without any recourse, warranty or representation whatsoever, such of the balances in the Collateral Account as exceed the aggregate amount of the Letter of Credit Liabilities and the pro rata share of any Letter of Credit Obligations and Swingline Loans of any Defaulting Lender after giving effect to Section 3.11.(c) at such time.

 

(f)            The Borrower shall pay to the Agent from time to time such fees as the Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Agent’s administration of the Collateral Account and investments and reinvestments of funds therein.  The Borrower authorizes Agent to file such financing statements as Agent may reasonably require in order to perfect Agent’s security interest in the Collateral Account, and Borrower shall promptly upon demand execute and deliver to Agent such other documents as Agent may reasonably request to evidence its security interest in the Collateral Account.

 

Section 11.6.                         Performance by Agent.

 

If any Loan Party shall fail to perform any covenant, duty or agreement contained in any of the Loan Documents, the Agent may, after notice to the Borrower, perform or attempt to perform such covenant, duty or agreement on behalf of the Loan Party after the expiration of any cure or grace periods set forth herein.  In such event, the Borrower shall, at the request of the Agent, promptly pay any amount reasonably expended by the Agent in such performance or attempted performance to the Agent, together with interest thereon at the applicable Post Default Rate from the date of such expenditure until paid.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability or responsibility whatsoever for the performance of any obligation of the Loan Parties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

 

Section 11.7.                         Rights Cumulative.

 

The rights and remedies of the Agent and the Lenders under this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any of them may otherwise have under Applicable Law.  In exercising their respective rights and remedies the Agent and the Lenders may be selective and no failure or delay by the Agent or any of the Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of it, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any power or right preclude its other or further exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.

 

ARTICLE XII.   THE AGENT

Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as contractual representative on such Lender’s behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, each Lender authorizes and directs the Agent to enter into the Loan Documents for the benefit of the Lenders.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Requisite Lenders or Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Loan Documents, and the exercise by

 

100












 

the Requisite Lenders or Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, as applicable, of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders.  Nothing herein shall be construed to deem the Agent a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender nor to impose on the Agent duties or obligations other than those expressly provided for herein.  At the request of a Lender, the Agent will forward to such Lender copies or, where appropriate, originals of the documents delivered to the Agent pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.  The Agent will also furnish to any Lender, upon the request of such Lender, a copy of any certificate or notice furnished to the Agent by the Borrower, any Loan Party or any other Affiliate of the Borrower, pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document not already delivered to such Lender pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any such other Loan Document.  As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of any of the Obligations), the Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Requisite Lenders or Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, as applicable (or all of the Lenders if explicitly required under any other provision of this Agreement), and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders and all holders of any of the Obligations; provided, however, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Agent to personal liability or which is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or Applicable Law.  Not in limitation of the foregoing, the Agent shall not exercise any right or remedy it or the Lenders may have under any Loan Document upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default unless the Requisite Lenders or Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, as applicable, have so directed the Agent to exercise such right or remedy.

 

Section 12.2.                         Agent’s Reliance, Etc.

 

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Documents, neither the Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents, employees or counsel shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent:  (a) may treat the payee of any Note as the holder thereof until the Agent receives written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof signed by such payee and in form satisfactory to the Agent; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including its own counsel or counsel for the Parent, the Borrower or any other Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or any other Person and shall not be responsible to any Lender or any other Person for any statements, warranties or representations made by any Person in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent under this Agreement or any Loan Document on the part of the Parent, the Borrower or other Persons or inspect the property, books or records of the Parent, the Borrower or any other Person; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any other 

 

101











 

instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral covered thereby or the perfection or priority of any Lien in favor of the Agent on behalf of the Lenders in any such collateral; and (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telephone or telecopy) believed by it to be genuine and signed, sent or given by the proper party or parties.  Unless set forth in writing to the contrary, the making of its initial Loan by a Lender shall constitute a certification by such Lender to the Agent and the other Lenders that the conditions precedent for initial Loans set forth in Sections 6.1. and 6.2. that have not previously been waived by the Requisite Lenders have been satisfied.

 

Section 12.3.                         Notice of Defaults.

 

The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default unless the Agent has received notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing with reasonable specificity such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”  If any Lender (excluding the Lender which is also serving as the Agent) becomes aware of any Default or Event of Default, it shall promptly send to the Agent such a “notice of default.”  Further, if the Agent receives such a “notice of default”, the Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders.

 

Section 12.4.                         KeyBank as Lender.

 

KeyBank, as a Lender, shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent; and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include KeyBank in each case in its individual capacity.  KeyBank and its affiliates may each accept deposits from, maintain deposits or credit balances for, invest in, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, serve as financial advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other affiliate thereof as if it were any other bank and without any duty to account therefor to the other Lenders.  Further, the Agent and any affiliate may accept fees and other consideration from the Loan Parties for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the other Lenders.  The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, KeyBank or its affiliates may receive information regarding the Parent, the Borrower, other Loan Parties, other Subsidiaries and other Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Person) and acknowledge that the Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them.

 

Section 12.5.                         Approvals of Lenders.

 

All communications from the Agent to any Lender requesting such Lender’s determination, consent, approval or disapproval (a) shall be given in the form of a written notice to such Lender, (b) shall be accompanied by a description of the matter or issue as to which such determination, approval, consent or disapproval is requested, or shall advise such Lender where information, if any, regarding such matter or issue may be inspected, or shall otherwise describe the matter or issue to be resolved, (c) shall include, if reasonably requested by such Lender and to the extent not previously provided to such Lender, written materials and, as appropriate, a brief summary of all oral information provided to the Agent by the Parent or the Borrower in 

 

102











 

respect of the matter or issue to be resolved, and (d) shall include the Agent’s recommended course of action or determination in respect thereof.  Each Lender shall reply promptly, but in any event within 10 Business Days (or such lesser or greater period as may be specifically required under the Loan Documents) of receipt of such communication.  Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, unless a Lender shall give written notice to the Agent that it specifically objects to the recommendation or determination of the Agent (together with a written explanation of the reasons behind such objection) within the applicable time period for reply, such Lender shall be deemed to have conclusively approved of or consented to such recommendation or determination.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other Lender or counsel to the Agent, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents, and based on the financial statements of the Parent, the Borrower, the other Subsidiaries or any other Affiliate thereof, and inquiries of such Persons, its independent due diligence of the business and affairs of the Parent, the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, the other Subsidiaries and other Persons, its review of the Loan Documents, the legal opinions required to be delivered to it hereunder, the advice of its own counsel and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate.

Except for notices, reports and other documents and information expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Parent, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Affiliate thereof which may come into possession of the Agent, or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or other affiliates.  Each Lender acknowledges that the Agent’s legal counsel in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is only acting as counsel to the Agent and is not acting as counsel to such Lender.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) pro rata in accordance with such Lender’s respective Commitment Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or

disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agent (in its capacity as Agent but not as a Lender) in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents, any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by the Agent under the Loan Documents (collectively, “Indemnifiable Amounts”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such Indemnifiable Amounts to the extent resulting from the Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or if the Agent fails to follow the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or the Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders, as applicable (or all of the Lenders if expressly required hereunder), unless such failure results from the Agent following the advice of counsel to the Agent of which advice the Lenders have received notice.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the preceding proviso, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees of the counsel(s) of the Agent’s own choosing) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, or enforcement of, or legal advice with respect to the rights or responsibilities of the parties under, the Loan Documents, any suit or action brought by the Agent to enforce the terms of the Loan Documents and/or collect any Obligations, any “lender liability” suit or claim brought against the Agent and/or the Lenders, and any claim or suit brought against the Agent, and/or the Lenders arising under any Environmental Laws.  Such out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) shall be advanced by the Lenders on the request of the Agent notwithstanding any claim or assertion that the Agent is not entitled to indemnification hereunder upon receipt of an undertaking by the Agent that the Agent will reimburse the Lenders if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that the Agent is not so entitled to indemnification.  The agreements in this Section shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and the termination of this Agreement.  If the Borrower shall reimburse the Agent for any Indemnifiable Amount following payment by any Lender to the Agent in respect of such Indemnifiable Amount pursuant to this Section, the Agent shall share such reimbursement on a ratable basis with each Lender making any such payment.

 

Section 12.8.                         Successor Agent.

 

The Agent may resign at any time as Agent under the Loan Documents by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower.  The Agent may be removed as Agent under the Loan Documents for good cause by all of the Lenders (other than the Lender then acting as the Agent) upon 30 days’ prior notice.  Upon any such resignation or removal, the Requisite Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent which appointment shall, provided no Default or Event of Default exists, be subject to the Borrower’s approval, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the resigning Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Lenders’ removal of the removed Agent, then the resigning or removed Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a Lender, if any Lender shall be willing to serve, and otherwise shall be a commercial bank having total combined assets of at least $50,000,000,000.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged 

 

104











 

from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.  Such successor Agent shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit issued by Agent, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or shall make other arrangements satisfactory to the current Agent, in either case, to assume effectively the obligations of the current Agent with respect to such Letters of Credit.  After any Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Article XII shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under the Loan Documents.

 

Section 12.9.                         Titled Agents.

 

Each of the Titled Agents in each such respective capacity, assumes no responsibility or obligation hereunder, including, without limitation, for servicing, enforcement or collection of any of the Loans, nor any duties as an agent hereunder for the Lenders.  The titles of “Arranger” and “Co-Syndication Agent” are solely honorific and imply no fiduciary responsibility on the part of the Titled Agents to the Agent, the Borrower or any Lender and the use of such titles does not impose on the Titled Agents any duties or obligations greater than those of any other Lender or entitle the Titled Agents to any rights other than those to which any other Lender is entitled.

If to a Lender:

 

To such Lender’s address or telecopy number, as applicable, set forth on its signature page hereto or in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance Agreement;

 

or, as to each party at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties delivered in compliance with this Section.  All such notices and other communications shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted; or (iii) if hand delivered or sent by overnight courier, when delivered.  Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, all notices or communications to the Agent or any Lender under Article II. shall be effective only when actually received.  Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to the Borrower (nor shall the Agent incur any liability to the Lenders) for acting upon any telephonic notice referred to in this Agreement which the Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, believes in good faith to have been given by a Person authorized to deliver such notice or for otherwise acting in good faith hereunder. Failure of a Person designated to get a copy of a notice to receive such copy shall not affect the validity of notice properly given to any other Person.

 

(b)           Loan Documents, any amendments a waiver thereof and notices under the Loan Documents may, with Agent’s approval, be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile and by signatures delivered in “PDF” format by electronic mail.  The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to Applicable Law, have the same force and effect as an original copy with manual signatures and shall be binding on the Loan Parties, Agent and Lenders.  Agent may also require that any such documents and signature delivered by facsimile or “PDF” format by electronic mail be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver any such manually-signed original shall not affect the effectiveness of any facsimile or “PDF” document or signature.

 

(c)           Notices and other communications to the Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lender hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2 if such Lender or Issuing Lender, as applicable, has notified the Agent that it is incapable of 

 

106











 

receiving notices under such Section by electronic communication.  The Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications.  Unless the Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgement), and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient, at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i), of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, for both clauses (i) and (ii) above, if such notice, e-mail or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient.

 

Section 13.2.                         Expenses.

 

The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agent for all of its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, any of the Loan Documents (including due diligence expenses and travel expenses relating to closing), and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including (x) the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent, (y) costs and expenses of the Agent in connection with the use of IntraLinks, Inc., Syndtrak or other similar information transmission systems in connection with the Loan Documents, and (z) reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Agent in connection with the review of Properties for inclusion in calculations of the covenants set forth in Section 10.1.(g) — (h) and the Agent’s other activities under Article XII., including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent relating to all such activities, (b) to pay or reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for all their reasonable costs and expenses incurred following the occurrence of a Default in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under the Loan Documents, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of their respective counsel and any payments in indemnification or otherwise payable by the Lenders to the Agent pursuant to the Loan Documents, (c) to pay, and indemnify and hold harmless the Agent from any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any failure to pay or delay in paying, documentary, stamp, excise and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of any of the Loan Documents, or consummation of any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, any Loan Document and (d) to the extent not already covered by any of the preceding subsections, to pay or reimburse the Agent and the Lenders for all their costs and expenses incurred in connection with any bankruptcy or other proceeding of the type described in Sections 11.1.(f) or 11.1.(g), including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Agent and any Lender, whether such fees and expenses are incurred prior to, during or after the commencement of such proceeding or the confirmation or conclusion of any such proceeding.  If the Borrower shall fail to pay any amounts required to be paid by it pursuant to this Section within thirty (30) days after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor, the Agent, and/or the Lenders may pay such amounts on behalf of the Borrower and either deem the same to be Loans outstanding hereunder or otherwise Obligations owing hereunder.

 

107











 

Section 13.3.                         Setoff.

 

Subject to Section 3.3. and in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, the Agent, each Lender and each Participant is hereby authorized by the Borrower, at any time or from time to time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender or Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent, such Lender or any affiliate of the Agent or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against and on account of any of the Obligations, irrespective of whether or not any or all of the Loans and all other Obligations have been declared to be, or have otherwise become, due and payable as permitted by Section 11.2., and although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (a) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (b) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  Each Lender and Participant agrees to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application nor give rise to any claim against or liability of such Lender or participant.

 

Section 13.4.                         Litigation; Jurisdiction; Other Matters; Waivers.

 

(a)           EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE AGENT, AND THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTES, OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG THE BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

 

(b)           EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN NEW YORK OR, AT THE OPTION OF THE AGENT, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG THE 

 

108











 

BORROWER, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT, THE NOTES OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM.  THE BORROWER AND EACH OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMIT AND CONSENT IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH CLAIMS OR DISPUTES.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM, AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.  THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

 

(c)           THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.

 

Section 13.5.                         Successors and Assigns.

 

(a)           The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void.

 

(b)           Any Lender may make, carry or transfer Loans at, to or for the account of any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of such Lender except to the extent such transfer would result in increased costs to the Borrower.

 

(c)           Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more banks or other entities (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or the Obligations owing to such Lender; provided, however, after giving effect to any such participation by a Lender, the amount of its Commitment, or if the Commitments have been terminated, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of Notes held by it, in which it has not granted any participating interests must be equal to $5,000,000; and provided further that such participant shall not be a Defaulting Lender or an Affiliate of a Defaulting Lender.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 13.3. and this Section 13.5., no Participant shall have any rights or benefits under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement.  Any 

 

109











 

agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including, without limitation, the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, however, such Lender may agree with the Participant that it will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to (i) increase, or extend the term or extend the time or waive any requirement for the reduction or termination of, such Lender’s Commitment, (ii) extend the date fixed for the payment of principal of or interest on the Loans or portions thereof owing to such Lender, (iii) reduce the amount of any such payment of principal, (iv) reduce the rate at which interest is payable thereon or (v) release any Guarantor (except as otherwise permitted under Section 4.3.).  An assignment or other transfer which is not permitted by subsection (d) or (e) below shall be given effect for purposes of this Agreement only to the extent of a participating interest granted in accordance with this subsection (c).  Upon request from the Agent or Borrower, a Lender shall notify the Agent of the sale of any participation hereunder and, if requested by the Agent, certify to the Agent that such participation is permitted hereunder and that the requirements of Section 3.12. (including Section 3.12.(f)) and this section have been satisfied.  The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.12., 5.1. and 5.4. (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 3.12.(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.12.(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section; provided that (x) no Participant shall be entitled to any benefits under Sections 3.12., 5.1. or 5.4. greater than if the Participant had acquired its interest by assignment, (y) no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.12. than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive thereunder, and (z) Participant agrees to be subject to Section 3.12.(i) and Section 5.6. as if it were a Lender.  Each Lender that sells a participation agrees to cooperate with Borrower and any relevant Participant to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.6. with respect any such Participant.  Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (and is maintained in accordance with Sections 5f. 103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c)(1)(i) of the United States Treasury Regulations) (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Sections 5f.103-1(c) and 1.871-14(c)(i)(i) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

(d)           Any Lender may with the prior written consent of the Agent, the Issuing Lender and, so long as no Event of Default exists, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consents, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld (it being agreed that the Borrower’s withholding of consent to an assignment which would result in (i) the Borrower

 

110












 

having to pay any amounts (or increased amounts) under Section 3.12. as a result of the admission of such an Assignee or (ii) the admission of an Assignee which refuses to receive confidential information subject to the confidentiality requirements set forth herein shall in each case be deemed to be reasonable)), assign to one or more Eligible Assignees (each an “Assignee”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Notes (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to such Lender); provided, however, (i) no such consent by the Borrower, the Agent or the Issuing Lender shall be required in the case of any assignment to another Lender or any affiliate of such Lender, and no such consent of Borrower shall be required in the case of any assignment to an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender; (ii) without limiting a full assignment by a Lender, unless the Borrower, the Agent and the Issuing Lender otherwise agree, after giving effect to any partial assignment by a Lender, the Assignee shall hold, and the assigning Lender shall retain, a Commitment with respect to the portion of the Loans assigned, or if the Commitments with respect to the portion of the Loans assigned have been terminated, Loans with respect to the portion of the Loans assigned having an outstanding principal balance, of at least $5,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; and (iii) each such assignment and the requisite consents shall be effected by means of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement.  Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided, if the Borrower reasonably requests additional information regarding the proposed assignee, the foregoing time period will be automatically extended until three (3) Business Days after the Borrower receives information regarding the proposed assignee responsive to the Borrower’s request.  Upon execution and delivery of such instrument and payment by such Assignee to such transferor Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferor Lender and such Assignee, such Assignee shall be a Lender party to this Agreement with respect to the assigned interest as of the effective date of the Assignment and Acceptance Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with respect to the assigned interest as set forth in such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, and the transferor Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder with respect to the assigned interest to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.  Upon the consummation of any assignment pursuant to this subsection, the transferor Lender, the Agent and the Borrower shall make appropriate arrangements so that (i) to the extent requested by the assignee Lender or transferor Lender, new Notes are issued to the Assignee and such transferor Lender, as appropriate and (ii) any Notes held by the assigning Lender are promptly returned to the Borrower for cancellation (and, to the extent not so returned, Borrower shall be entitled to receive a customary indemnity agreement of the type described in Section 2.11.(d)(ii)(A) from such assigning Lender).  In connection with any such assignment, the transferor Lender shall pay to the Agent an administrative fee for processing such assignment in the amount of $3,500.  Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in its Commitment or any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower.

 

(e)           The Agent shall maintain at the Principal Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amounts (and the amount of interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”).  The Agent shall give each Lender and the Borrower notice of the assignment by any Lender of its rights as contemplated by this Section.  The 

 

111











 

Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.  The Register and copies of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice to the Agent.  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement executed by an assigning Lender, together with each Note subject to such assignment, the Agent shall, if such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement has been completed and if the Agent receives the processing and recording fee described in subsection (d) above, (i) accept such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrower.

 

(f)            In addition to the assignments and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A and any Operating Circular issued by such Federal Reserve Bank, and such Loans and Notes shall be fully transferable as provided therein.  No such assignment shall release the assigning Lender from its obligations hereunder.

 

(g)           A Lender may furnish any information concerning the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries in the possession of such Lender from time to time to Assignees and Participants (including prospective Assignees and Participants) subject to compliance with Section 13.8.

 

(h)           Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder to the Borrower, the Parent, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates or Subsidiaries or to any natural Person.

 

(i)            Each Lender agrees that, without the prior written consent of the Borrower and the Agent, it will not make any assignment hereunder in any manner or under any circumstances that would require registration or qualification of, or filings in respect of, any Loan or Note under the Securities Act or any other securities laws of the United States of America or of any other jurisdiction.

 

(j)            In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (i) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including Swingline Lender) hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and in Swingline Loans in accordance with its applicable Commitment Percentage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then 

 

112











 

the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

 

Section 13.6.                         Amendments.

 

(a)           Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, any consent or approval required or permitted by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be given by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document may be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any terms of this Agreement or such other Loan Document or the continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with, but only with, the written consent of the Requisite Lenders (and, in the case of an amendment to any Loan Document, the written consent of each Loan Party a party thereto).

(b)           Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, no amendment, waiver or consent shall do any of the following:

 

(i)            increase the Commitments of the Lenders (except for any increase in the Commitments effectuated pursuant to Section 2.16.) (which action shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders whose Commitments are increased);

 

(ii)           reduce the principal of, or interest rates (other than interest or fees at the Post Default Rate) that have accrued or that will be charged on the outstanding principal amount of, any Loans or other Obligations (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions or any changes in the calculation of the Leverage Ratio in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest for purposes of this clause (ii) of this Section 13.6.(b)) (which actions shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders of whose principal or interest is reduced);

 

(iii)          reduce the amount of any Fees payable hereunder or postpone any date fixed for payment thereof (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions or any changes in the calculation of the Leverage Ratio in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in any Fees for purposes of this clause (iii) of this Section 13.6.(b)) (which action shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders the Fees relating to whose Commitments are reduced or such other date for payment are postponed or extended);

 

(iv)          modify the definition of the term “Revolving Loan Termination Date” or “Term Loan A Termination Date” or “Term Loan B Termination Date” (except as contemplated under Section 2.13.) or otherwise postpone any date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loans or any other Obligations (including the waiver of any Default or Event of Default as a result of the nonpayment of any such Obligations as and when due), or extend the expiration date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Loan Termination Date (except as permitted under Section 2.4.(b)) (which action shall be deemed only to affect those Lenders the Revolving Loan Termination Date, Term Loan A Termination Date 

 

113











 

or Term Loan B Termination Date of whose Commitments or such other date for payment are postponed or extended);

 

(v)           amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Sections 3.2. or 11.4.;

 

(vi)          modify the definition of the term “Requisite Lenders” or “Requisite Revolving Loan Lenders” or otherwise modify in any other manner that reduces the number or percentage of the Lenders required to make any determinations or waive any rights hereunder or to modify any provision hereof, including without limitation, any modification of this Section 13.6. if such modification would have such effect;

 

(vii)         release all or substantially all of the Guarantors from the Guaranty other than as provided in Section 4.3. and Section 10.6.(f).; or

 

(viii)        amend or otherwise modify the provisions of Section 2.15.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (A) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders, except that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and (B) the consent of the Requisite Lenders of the Revolving Loans, the Term Loans A or the Term Loans B (determined solely by reference to Lenders holding a Commitment with respect to such Loans) shall be required for any amendment, waiver or modification that adversely affects the rights of the Revolving Loans, Term Loans A or Term Loans B in a manner different than such amendment, waiver or modification affects any of the other of the Revolving Loans, Term Loans A or Term Loans B.

 

(c)           No amendment, waiver or consent, unless in writing and signed by the Agent, in such capacity, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, shall affect the rights or duties of the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.4. or the obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Issuing Lender. Any amendment, waiver or consent relating to Section 2.3. or the obligations of the Swingline Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall, in addition to the Lenders required hereinabove to take such action, require the written consent of the Swingline Lender.

 

(d)           No waiver shall extend to or affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent thereon and any amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose set forth therein.  Except as otherwise provided in Section 12.5., no course of dealing or delay or omission on the part of the Agent or any Lender in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial thereto.  Any Default or Event of Default occurring hereunder shall continue to exist until such 

 

114











 

time as such Default or Event of Default is waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Section, notwithstanding any attempted cure or other action by any Loan Party or any other Person subsequent to the occurrence of such Event of Default.  Except as otherwise explicitly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, no notice to or demand upon any Loan Party shall entitle such Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(e)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13.6., if the Agent and the Borrower have jointly identified an ambiguity, omission, mistake or defect in any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or an inconsistency between provisions of this Agreement and/or the other Loan Documents, the Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision or provisions to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency so long as to do so would not adversely affect the interest of the Lenders.  Any such amendment shall become effective without any further or consent of any of other party to this Agreement.

 

Section 13.7.                         Nonliability of Agent and Lenders.

 

The relationship between the Borrower and the Lenders and the Agent shall be solely that of borrower and lender.  Neither the Agent nor any Lender shall have any fiduciary responsibilities to the Borrower or the Parent and no provision in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, and no course of dealing between or among any of the parties hereto, shall be deemed to create any fiduciary duty owing by the Agent or any Lender to any Lender, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party.  Neither the Agent nor any Lender undertakes any responsibility to the Borrower or the Parent to review or inform the Borrower or the Parent of any matter in connection with any phase of the business or operations of the Borrower or the Parent.

 

Section 13.8.                         Confidentiality.

 

The Agent and each Lender shall use reasonable efforts to assure that information about Borrower, the other Loan Parties and other Subsidiaries, and the Properties thereof and their operations, affairs and financial condition, not generally disclosed to the public, which is furnished to the Agent or any Lender pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, is used only for the purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall not be divulged to any Person other than the Agent, the Lenders, and their respective agents who are actively and directly participating in the evaluation, administration or enforcement of the Loan Documents and other transactions between the Agent or such Lender, as applicable, and the Borrower, but in any event the Agent and the Lenders may make disclosure:  (a) to any of their respective affiliates (provided they shall agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section 13.8.); (b) as reasonably requested by any potential Assignee, Participant or other transferee in connection with the contemplated transfer of any Commitment or participations therein as permitted hereunder (provided they shall agree to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms of this Section); (c) as required or requested by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof or regulator or pursuant to legal process or in connection with any legal proceedings; (d) to the Agent’s or such Lender’s independent auditors and other professional advisors (provided they shall be notified of the confidential nature of the information); (e) after the happening and 

 

115











 

during the continuance of an Event of Default, to any other Person, in connection with the exercise by the Agent or the Lenders of rights hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents; (f) upon Borrower’s prior consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), to any contractual counter-parties to any swap or similar hedging agreement or to any rating agency; and (g) 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 the Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Affiliate.

 

Section 13.9.                         Indemnification.

 

(a)           The Borrower shall and hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Agent, each of the Lenders, any affiliate of the Agent or any Lender, and their respective directors, officers, shareholders, agents, employees and counsel (each referred to herein as an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any and all of the following (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”):  losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or reasonable expenses of every kind and nature (including, without limitation, amounts paid in settlement, court costs and the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding or any advice rendered in connection therewith, but excluding losses, costs, claims, damages, liabilities, deficiencies, judgments or expenses indemnification in respect of which is specifically covered by Section 3.12. or 5.1. or expressly excluded from the coverage of such Sections 3.12. or 5.1.) incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with, arising out of, or by reason of, any suit, cause of action, claim, arbitration, investigation or settlement, consent decree or other proceeding (the foregoing referred to herein as an “Indemnity Proceeding”) which is in any way related directly or indirectly to:  (i) this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated thereby; (ii) the making of any Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder; (iii) any actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit; (iv) the Agent’s or any Lender’s entering into this Agreement; (v) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders have established the credit facility evidenced hereby in favor of the Borrower; (vi) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders are creditors of the Borrower and have or are alleged to have information regarding the financial condition, strategic plans or business operations of the Parent, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries; (vii) the fact that the Agent and the Lenders are material creditors of the Borrower and are alleged to influence directly or indirectly the business decisions or affairs of the Parent, the Borrower and the Subsidiaries or their financial condition; (viii) the exercise of any right or remedy the Agent or the Lenders may have under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; or (ix) any violation or non compliance by the Parent, the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any Applicable Law (including any Environmental Law) including, but not limited to, any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by (A) the Internal Revenue Service or state taxing authority or (B) any Governmental Authority or other Person under any Environmental Law, including any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by a Governmental Authority or other Person seeking remedial or other action to cause the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (or its respective properties) (or the Agent and/or the Lenders as successors to the Borrower) to be in compliance with such Environmental Laws; provided, however, that the Borrower shall not be obligated to indemnify any Indemnified Party for (A) any acts or omissions of such Indemnified Party in connection with matters described in this subsection to the extent arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment or (B) Indemnified Costs to the extent arising directly out of or resulting directly from claims of one 

 

116











 

or more Indemnified Parties against another Indemnified Party not involving any act or omission of the Borrower or Guarantor.

 

(b)           The Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section 13.9. shall apply to all Indemnity Proceedings arising out of, or related to, the foregoing whether or not an Indemnified Party is a named party in such Indemnity Proceeding.  In this regard, this indemnification shall cover all Indemnified Costs of any Indemnified Party in connection with any deposition of any Indemnified Party or compliance with any subpoena (including any subpoena requesting the production of documents).  This indemnification shall, among other things, apply to any Indemnity Proceeding commenced by other creditors of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, any shareholder of the Borrower or any Subsidiary (whether such shareholder(s) are prosecuting such Indemnity Proceeding in their individual capacity or derivatively on behalf of the Borrower), any account debtor of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by any Governmental Authority. If indemnification is to be sought hereunder by an Indemnified Party, then such Indemnified Party shall notify the Borrower of the commencement of any Indemnity Proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the Borrower shall not relieve the Borrower from any liability that it may have to such Indemnified Party pursuant to this Section 13.9.

 

(c)           This indemnification shall apply to any Indemnity Proceeding arising during the pendency of any bankruptcy proceeding filed by or against the Borrower and/or any Subsidiary.

 

(d)           All out of pocket fees and expenses of, and all amounts paid to third persons by, an Indemnified Party shall be advanced by the Borrower at the request of such Indemnified Party notwithstanding any claim or assertion by the Borrower that such Indemnified Party is not entitled to indemnification hereunder, upon receipt of an undertaking by such Indemnified Party that such Indemnified Party will reimburse the Borrower if it is actually and finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that such Indemnified Party is not so entitled to indemnification hereunder.

 

(e)           An Indemnified Party may conduct its own investigation and defense of, and may formulate its own strategy with respect to, any Indemnity Proceeding covered by this Section and, as provided above, all Indemnified Costs incurred by such Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Borrower.  No action taken by legal counsel chosen by an Indemnified Party in investigating or defending against any such Indemnity Proceeding shall vitiate or in any way impair the obligations and duties of the Borrower hereunder to indemnify and hold harmless each such Indemnified Party; provided, however, that if (i) the Borrower is required to indemnify an Indemnified Party pursuant hereto and (ii) the Borrower has provided evidence reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party that the Borrower has the financial wherewithal to reimburse such Indemnified Party for any amount paid by such Indemnified Party with respect to such Indemnity Proceeding, such Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Indemnified Party may settle or compromise any such Indemnity Proceeding without the prior written consent of the Borrower where (x) no monetary relief is sought against such Indemnified Party in such Indemnity Proceeding or (y) there is an allegation of a violation of law by such Indemnified Party.

 

117











 

(f)            If and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under Applicable Law.

 

(g)           The Borrower’s obligations under this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the payment in full in cash of the Obligations, and are in addition to, and not in substitution of, any other of their obligations set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it is a party.

 

Section 13.10.                  Termination; Survival.

 

At such time as (a) all of the Commitments have been terminated, (b) all Letters of Credit have terminated, (c) none of the Lenders nor the Swingline Lender is obligated any longer under this Agreement to make any Loans or issue any Letter of Credit and (d) all Obligations (other than obligations which survive as provided in the following sentence) have been paid and satisfied in full, this Agreement shall terminate.  The indemnities to which the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender are entitled under the provisions of Sections 3.12., 5.1., 5.4., 12.8., 13.2. and 13.9. and any other provision of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the provisions of Section 13.4., shall continue in full force and effect and shall protect the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender (i) notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, or of the other Loan Documents, against events arising after such termination as well as before and (ii) at all times after any such party ceases to be a party to this Agreement with respect to all matters and events existing on or prior to the date such party ceased to be a party to this Agreement.

 

Section 13.11.                  Severability of Provisions.

 

Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

Section 13.12.                  GOVERNING LAW.

 

THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1401 BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

Section 13.13.                  Patriot Act.

 

The Lenders and the Agent each hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the such Act.

 

118











 

Section 13.14.                  Counterparts.

 

This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 

Section 13.15.                  Obligations with Respect to Loan Parties.

 

The obligations of the Borrower to direct or prohibit the taking of certain actions by the other Loan Parties as specified herein shall be absolute and not subject to any defense the Borrower may have that the Borrower does not control such Loan Parties.

 

Section 13.16.                  Limitation of Liability.

 

Neither the Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Agent or any Lender shall have any liability with respect to, and the Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or incurred by the Borrower in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  The Borrower hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue the Agent or any Lender or any of the Agent’s or any Lender’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or financed hereby.

 

Section 13.17.                  Entire Agreement.

 

This Agreement, the Notes, and the other Loan Documents referred to herein embody the final, entire agreement among the parties hereto and supersede any and all prior commitments, agreements, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto.  There are no oral agreements among the parties hereto.

 

Section 13.18.                  Construction.

 

The Borrower, the Agent and each Lender acknowledge that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the Borrower, the Agent and each Lender.

 

Section 13.19.                  Non-Recourse to Parent.

 

Except to the extent set forth in the Springing Guaranty and subject to the limitations described below, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents, recourse for the Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement 

 

119











 

and the other Loan Documents are non-recourse to the Parent as a result of its capacity as the general partner of the Borrower, provided that the foregoing shall not limit any recourse to the Borrower and the other Guarantors and their respective assets, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.  Agent and the Lenders agree that the Parent shall not be liable for any of the Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents as a result of its status as the general partner of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) if an Event of Default occurs, nothing in this Section 13.19. shall in any way prevent or hinder the Agent or the Lenders in the pursuit or enforcement of any right, remedy, or judgment against the Borrower or any of the other Guarantors, or any of their respective assets; (b) nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver, release or impairment of the Obligations or any Lien securing the Obligations or affect the validity or enforceability of the Loan Documents; (c) the Parent shall be fully liable to the Agent and the Lenders to the same extent that Parent would be liable absent the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.19. for fraud or willful misrepresentation by the Parent (or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party to the extent relating to the Compliance Certificate, financial statements or other reporting of or with respect to the Parent under Article IX, or to the extent that the Parent was acting on behalf of the Borrower or such other Loan Party in its capacity as the general partner (as is the case, without limitation, with respect to the Borrower and this Agreement and representations and warranties made pursuant hereto or required hereunder) or the indirect sole member or manager of such other Loan Party) (to the full extent of losses suffered by the Agent or any Lender by reason of such fraud or willful misrepresentation); and (d) nothing in this Section 13.19. shall be deemed to be a waiver of any right which Agent may have under §506(a), 506(b), 1111(b) or any other provision of the United States Bankruptcy Code, Title 11, U.S.C.A. (as amended from time to time), or any successor thereto or similar provisions under applicable state law to file a claim against the Borrower or any of the other Guarantors for the full amount of the Obligations.  Nothing herein shall waive, relieve, reduce or impair any Obligation of the Parent under the Springing Guaranty.

 

Section 13.20.                  Acknowledgment and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions.

 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

 

(a)           the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

 

(b)           the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

 

(i)            a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

 

(ii)           a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a

 

120












 

bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

 

(iii)          the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

FORM OF GUARANTY

 

THIS GUARANTY (the “Guaranty”) dated as of             , 2016, executed and delivered by each of the undersigned and the other Persons from time to time party hereto pursuant to the execution and delivery of an Accession Agreement in the form of Annex I hereto (all of the undersigned, together with such other Persons each a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”) in favor of (a) KEYBANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, in its capacity as Agent (the “Agent”) for the Lenders under that certain Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 28, 2016 (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among Kite Realty Group, L.P. (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions party thereto and their assignees under Section 13.5. thereof (together with the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender, collectively, the “Lenders”), the Agent, and the other parties thereto, and (b) the Lenders.

 

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower and each of the Guarantors, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender through their collective efforts;

 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, each Guarantor is willing to guarantee the Borrower’s obligations to the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

 

WHEREAS, each Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Agent and the Lenders making, and continuing to make, such financial accommodations to the Borrower.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by each Guarantor, each Guarantor agrees as follows:

 

Section 1.  Guaranty.  Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, irrevocably and unconditionally guaranties the due and punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all of the following (collectively referred to as the “Guarantied Obligations”):  (a) all indebtedness and obligations owing by the Borrower to any Lender, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Agent under or in connection with the Credit Agreement and any other Loan Document, including without limitation, the repayment of all principal of the Revolving Loans, Term Loans A, Term Loans B, Swingline Loans and the Reimbursement Obligations, and the payment of all interest, Fees, charges, attorneys’ fees and other amounts payable to any Lender or the Agent thereunder or in connection therewith; (b) any and all extensions, renewals, modifications, amendments or substitutions of the foregoing; (c) all

 

B-1-1











 

expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, that are incurred by the Lenders and the Agent in the enforcement of any of the foregoing or any obligation of such Guarantor hereunder; and (d) all other Obligations.

 

Section 2.  Guaranty of Payment and Not of Collection.  This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment, and not of collection, and a debt of each Guarantor for its own account.  Accordingly, none of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Agent shall be obligated or required before enforcing this Guaranty against any Guarantor:  (a)  to pursue any right or remedy any of them may have against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or commence any suit or other proceeding against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person; or (c) to make demand of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or to enforce or seek to enforce or realize upon any collateral security held by the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Agent which may secure any of the Guarantied Obligations.

 

Section 3.  Guaranty Absolute.  Each Guarantor guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the same, regardless of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender with respect thereto.  The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including without limitation, the following (whether or not such Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof):

 

(a)           (i) any change in the amount, interest rate or due date or other term of any of the Guarantied Obligations, (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of all or any portion of the Guarantied Obligations, (iii) any amendment or waiver of, or consent to the departure from or other indulgence with respect to, the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other document or instrument evidencing or relating to any Guarantied Obligations, or (iv) any waiver, renewal, extension, addition, or supplement to, or deletion from, or any other action or inaction under or in respect of, the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other documents, instruments or agreements relating to the Guarantied Obligations or any other instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

 

(b)           any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

 

(c)           any furnishing to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of the Obligations;

 

(d)           any settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, or any

 

B-1-2











 

subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

 

(e)           any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to such Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding;

 

(f)            any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which may adversely affect such Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover payments made under this Guaranty;

 

(g)           any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Obligations;

 

(h)           any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

 

(i)            any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the exercise thereof; or

 

(j)            any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, a Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment and performance in full).

 

Section 4.  Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations.  The Lenders and the Agent may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor, and without discharging any Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3 and may otherwise:  (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on any of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Obligations; (d) release any other Loan Party or other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Lenders shall elect.

 

Section 5.  Representations and Warranties.  Each Guarantor hereby makes to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender all of the representations and warranties made by the Borrower with respect to or in any way relating to such Guarantor in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as if the same were set forth herein in full.

 

Section 6.  Covenants.  Each Guarantor will comply with all covenants which the Borrower is to cause such Guarantor to comply with under the terms of the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

B-1-3











 

Section 7.  Waiver.  Each Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of such Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 8.  Inability to Accelerate Loan.  If the Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and/or the Lenders are prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and/or the Lenders shall be entitled to receive from each Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.

 

Section 9.  Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations.  If claim is ever made on the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender with any such claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and such Guarantor shall be and remain liable to the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender.

 

Section 10.  Subrogation.  Upon the making by any Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of the Borrower, such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower; provided, however, that such Guarantor shall not enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action such Guarantor may have against the Borrower arising by reason of any payment or performance by such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.  If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, such Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Agent to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.

 

Section 11.  Payments Free and Clear.  All sums payable by each Guarantor hereunder, whether of principal, interest, Fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes other than any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 3.12. of the Credit Agreement unless 

 

B-1-4











 

such Tax is an Indemnified Tax), and if any Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by a Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding, such Guarantor shall pay to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required.

 

Section 12.  Set-off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, each Guarantor hereby authorizes the Agent and each Lender, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, without any prior notice to such Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender or Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent, such Lender, or any affiliate of the Agent or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of such Guarantor against and on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured. Each Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of such Guarantor in the amount of such participation.

 

Section 13.  Subordination.  Each Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to such Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of such Guarantor from the Borrower (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations.  If an Event of Default shall exist, then no Guarantor shall accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

 

Section 14.  Avoidance Provisions.  It is the intent of each Guarantor, the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that in any Proceeding, such Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) to be avoidable or unenforceable against such Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”.  Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the 

 

B-1-5











 

Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which such Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of such Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions.  This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, and no Guarantor or any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

 

Section 15.  Information.  Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Guarantors, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender shall have any duty whatsoever to advise any Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

 

Section 16.  Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1401 BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

Section 17.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

 

(a)           EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND EACH GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

 

(b)           EACH OF THE GUARANTORS, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN NEW YORK OR, AT THE OPTION OF THE AGENT, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION 

 

B-1-6











 

TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG ANY GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM.  EACH GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH CLAIMS OR DISPUTES.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.  THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

 

(c)           THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY.

 

Section 18.  Loan Accounts.  The Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of the Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed conclusive evidence of the amounts and other matters set forth herein, absent manifest error.  The failure of the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge any Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 19.  Waiver of Remedies.  No delay or failure on the part of the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against any Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender of any such right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.

 

Section 20.  Termination.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of the Credit Agreement in accordance with Section 13.10 of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 21.  Successors and Assigns.  Each reference herein to the Agent or the Lenders shall be deemed to include such Person’s respective successors and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of this 

 

B-1-7











 

Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to each Guarantor shall be deemed to include such Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding.  The Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation, or grant or sell participations in any Guarantied Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to, any Guarantor and without releasing, discharging or modifying any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.  Subject to Section 13.8. of the Credit Agreement, each Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Agent or any Lender to any Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Assignee or Participant) of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower or any Guarantor.  No Guarantor may assign or transfer its obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void.

 

Section 22.  JOINT AND SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS.  THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE GUARANTORS HEREUNDER SHALL BE JOINT AND SEVERAL, AND ACCORDINGLY, EACH GUARANTOR CONFIRMS THAT IT IS LIABLE FOR THE FULL AMOUNT OF THE “GUARANTIED OBLIGATIONS” AND ALL OF THE OBLIGATIONS AND LIABILITIES OF EACH OF THE OTHER GUARANTORS HEREUNDER.

 

Section 23.  Amendments.  This Guaranty may not be amended other than in writing in accordance with the terms of Section 13.6. of the Credit Agreement.

Section 25.  Notices.  All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given (a) to each Guarantor at its address set forth below its signature hereto, (b) to the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender at its respective address for notices provided for in the Credit Agreement, or (c) as to each such party at such other address as such party shall designate in a written notice to the other parties.  Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted; or (iii) if hand delivered, when delivered; provided, however, that any notice of a change of address for notices shall not be effective until received.

 

Section 26.  Severability.  In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

Section 27.  Headings.  Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Guaranty.

 

Section 28.  Limitation of Liability.  Neither the Agent nor any Lender, nor any affiliate, officer, director, employee, attorney, or agent of the Agent or any Lender, shall have any liability with respect to, and each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages suffered or 

 

B-1-8











 

incurred by a Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Each Guarantor hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue the Agent or any Lender or any of the Agent’s or any Lender’s affiliates, officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents for punitive damages in respect of any claim in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to, this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by Credit Agreement or financed thereby.

WHEREAS, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender have agreed to make available to the Borrower certain financial accommodations on the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower and the Guarantor, though separate legal entities, are mutually dependent on each other in the conduct of their respective businesses as an integrated operation and have determined it to be in their mutual best interests to obtain financing from the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender through their collective efforts;

 

WHEREAS, Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender making such financial accommodations available to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement and, accordingly, Guarantor is willing, upon the occurrence of a “Springing Recourse Event” (as hereinafter defined), to guarantee the Borrower’s obligations to the Agent, the Lenders and the Swingline Lender on the terms and conditions contained herein; and

 

WHEREAS, Guarantor’s execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition to the Agent and the Lenders making, and continuing to make, such financial accommodations to the Borrower.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged by Guarantor, Guarantor agrees as follows:

 

Section 1.              Guaranty.

(3)           Borrower or Guarantor or any officer or director thereof shall collude with, or otherwise assist any party in connection with any such filing in a Bankruptcy Proceeding or solicit or cause to be solicited petitioning creditors for any involuntary petition against Borrower or Guarantor in any such Bankruptcy Proceeding from any party.

 

Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the guaranty under this Guaranty of the Guarantied Obligations shall automatically become fully effective upon the occurrence of any Springing Recourse Event and no other documentation or notice shall be required to evidence the same.

 

Section 2.              Guaranty of Payment and Not of Collection.  This Guaranty is a guaranty of payment, and not of collection, and upon the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, a debt of Guarantor for its own account.  Accordingly, none of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Agent shall be obligated or required before enforcing this Guaranty against Guarantor after a Springing Recourse Event:  (a)  to pursue any right or remedy any of them may have against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or commence 

 

B-2-3











 

any suit or other proceeding against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person in any court or other tribunal; (b) to make any claim in a liquidation or bankruptcy of the Borrower, any other Loan Party, or any other Person; or (c) to make demand of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person or to enforce or seek to enforce or realize upon any collateral security held by the Lenders, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Agent which may secure any of the Guarantied Obligations.

 

Section 3.              Guaranty Absolute.  Guarantor, upon the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, guarantees that the Guarantied Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the documents evidencing the same, regardless of any Applicable Law now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender with respect thereto.  Upon the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, irrevocable and unconditional in accordance with its terms and shall remain in full force and effect without regard to, and shall not be released, suspended, discharged, terminated or otherwise affected by, any circumstance or occurrence whatsoever, including without limitation, the following (whether or not Guarantor consents thereto or has notice thereof and whether before or after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event):

 

a.

b.             any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other document, instrument or agreement referred to therein or evidencing any Guarantied Obligations or any assignment or transfer of any of the foregoing;

 

c.             any furnishing to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender of any security for the Guarantied Obligations, or any sale, exchange, release or surrender of, or realization on, any collateral securing any of the Obligations;

 

d.             any settlement or compromise of any of the Guarantied Obligations, any security therefor, or any liability of any other party with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, or any subordination of the payment of the Guarantied Obligations to the payment of any other liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party;

 

e.             any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, composition, adjustment, dissolution, liquidation or other like proceeding relating to Guarantor, the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person, or any action taken with respect to this Guaranty by any trustee or receiver, or by any court, in any such proceeding;

 

B-2-4












 

f.             any act or failure to act by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person which may adversely affect Guarantor’s subrogation rights, if any, against the Borrower to recover payments made under this Guaranty;

 

g.             any nonperfection or impairment of any security interest or other Lien on any collateral, if any, securing in any way any of the Obligations;

 

h.             any application of sums paid by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person with respect to the liabilities of the Borrower to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender, regardless of what liabilities of the Borrower remain unpaid;

 

i.              any defect, limitation or insufficiency in the borrowing powers of the Borrower or in the exercise thereof; or

 

j.              any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, Guarantor hereunder (other than indefeasible payment and performance in full).

 

Section 4.              Action with Respect to Guarantied Obligations.  The Lenders and the Agent may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor, and without discharging Guarantor from its obligations hereunder, take any and all actions described in Section 3 and may otherwise:  (a) amend, modify, alter or supplement the terms of any of the Guarantied Obligations, including, but not limited to, extending or shortening the time of payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations or changing the interest rate that may accrue on any of the Guarantied Obligations; (b) amend, modify, alter or supplement the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided, however, that no such amendments can require Guarantor to modify the nature of the springing guaranty provided hereunder without the approval of Guarantor; (c) sell, exchange, release or otherwise deal with all, or any part, of any collateral securing any of the Obligations; (d) release any other Loan Party or other Person liable in any manner for the payment or collection of the Guarantied Obligations; (e) exercise, or refrain from exercising, any rights against the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person; and (f) apply any sum, by whomsoever paid or however realized, to the Guarantied Obligations in such order as the Lenders shall elect.

 

Section 5.              Reserved.

 

Section 6.              Reserved.

 

Section 7.              Waiver.  Guarantor, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, hereby waives notice of acceptance hereof or any presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, and any other act or thing, or omission or delay to do any other act or thing, which in any manner or to any extent might vary the risk of Guarantor or which otherwise might operate to discharge Guarantor from its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 8.              Inability to Accelerate Loan.  If the Agent, the Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and/or the Lenders are prevented under Applicable Law or otherwise from demanding or accelerating payment of any of the Guarantied Obligations after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event by reason of any automatic stay or otherwise, the Agent, the 

 

B-2-5











 

Swingline Lender, the Issuing Lender and/or the Lenders shall be entitled to receive from Guarantor, upon demand therefor, the sums which otherwise would have been due had such demand or acceleration occurred.

 

Section 9.              Reinstatement of Guarantied Obligations.  If claim is ever made on the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender for repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received in payment or on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, and the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender repays all or part of said amount by reason of (a) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction, or (b) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender with any such claimant (including the Borrower or a trustee in bankruptcy for the Borrower), then and in such event Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding on it, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of the Credit Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or any other instrument evidencing any liability of the Borrower, and Guarantor shall, upon the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, be and remain liable to the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender for the amounts so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been paid to the Agent, such Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender.

 

Section 10.            Subrogation.  Upon the making by Guarantor of any payment hereunder for the account of the Borrower, Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the payee against the Borrower; provided, however, that Guarantor shall not enforce any right or receive any payment by way of subrogation or otherwise take any action in respect of any other claim or cause of action Guarantor may have against the Borrower arising by reason of any payment or performance by Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, unless and until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full.  If any amount shall be paid to Guarantor on account of or in respect of such subrogation rights or other claims or causes of action, Guarantor shall hold such amount in trust for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender and shall forthwith pay such amount to the Agent to be credited and applied against the Guarantied Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement or to be held by the Agent as collateral security for any Guarantied Obligations existing.

 

Section 11.            Payments Free and Clear.  All sums payable by Guarantor hereunder, whether of principal, interest, Fees, expenses, premiums or otherwise, shall be paid in full, without set off or counterclaim or any deduction or withholding whatsoever (including any Taxes other than any Taxes withheld pursuant to Section 3.12. of the Credit Agreement unless such Tax is an Indemnified Tax), and if Guarantor is required by Applicable Law or by a Governmental Authority to make any such deduction or withholding, Guarantor shall pay to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender such additional amount as will result in the receipt by the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender of the full amount payable hereunder had such deduction or withholding not occurred or been required.

 

Section 12.            Set-off.  In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under any of the other Loan Documents or Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, 

 

B-2-6











 

Guarantor hereby authorizes the Agent and each Lender, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default and after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event, without any prior notice to Guarantor or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, but in the case of a Lender or Participant subject to receipt of the prior written consent of the Agent exercised in its sole discretion, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including, but not limited to, indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured) and any other indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Agent, such Lender, or any affiliate of the Agent or such Lender, to or for the credit or the account of Guarantor against and on account of any of the Guarantied Obligations, although such obligations shall be contingent or unmatured.  Guarantor agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law and subject to the terms hereof, that any Participant may exercise rights of setoff or counterclaim and other rights with respect to its participation after the occurrence of a Springing Recourse Event as fully as if such Participant were a direct creditor of Guarantor in the amount of such participation.

 

Section 13.            Subordination.  Guarantor hereby expressly covenants and agrees for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that all obligations and liabilities of the Borrower to Guarantor of whatever description, including without limitation, all intercompany receivables of Guarantor from the Borrower (collectively, the “Junior Claims”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Guarantied Obligations.  If an Event of Default shall exist, then Guarantor shall not accept any direct or indirect payment (in cash, property or securities, by setoff or otherwise) from the Borrower on account of or in any manner in respect of any Junior Claim until all of the Guarantied Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full.

 

Section 14.            Avoidance Provisions.  It is the intent of Guarantor, the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that in any Proceeding, Guarantor’s maximum obligation hereunder shall equal, but not exceed, the maximum amount which would not otherwise cause the obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) to be avoidable or unenforceable against Guarantor in such Proceeding as a result of Applicable Law, including without limitation, (a) Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended (the “Bankruptcy Code”) and (b) any state fraudulent transfer or fraudulent conveyance act or statute applied in such Proceeding, whether by virtue of Section 544 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise.  The Applicable Laws under which the possible avoidance or unenforceability of the obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender) shall be determined in any such Proceeding are referred to as the “Avoidance Provisions”.  Accordingly, to the extent that the obligations of Guarantor hereunder would otherwise be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions, the maximum Guarantied Obligations for which Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall be reduced to that amount which, as of the time any of the Guarantied Obligations are deemed to have been incurred under the Avoidance Provisions, would not cause the obligations of Guarantor hereunder (or any other obligations of Guarantor to the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender), to be subject to avoidance under the Avoidance Provisions.  This Section is intended solely to preserve the rights of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender hereunder to the maximum extent that would not cause the obligations of Guarantor hereunder to be subject to avoidance under the 

 

B-2-7











 

Avoidance Provisions, and neither Guarantor nor any other Person shall have any right or claim under this Section as against the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender that would not otherwise be available to such Person under the Avoidance Provisions.

 

Section 15.            Information.  Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any of the Guarantied Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender shall have any duty whatsoever to advise Guarantor of information regarding such circumstances or risks.

 

Section 16.            Governing Law.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL PURSUANT TO NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SECTION 5-1401 BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS EXECUTED, AND TO BE FULLY PERFORMED, IN SUCH STATE.

 

Section 17.            WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

 

a.             EACH PARTY HERETO ACKNOWLEDGES THAT ANY DISPUTE OR CONTROVERSY BETWEEN OR AMONG GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS WOULD BE BASED ON DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX ISSUES OF LAW AND FACT AND WOULD RESULT IN DELAY AND EXPENSE TO THE PARTIES.  ACCORDINGLY, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF THE LENDERS, THE AGENT AND GUARANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND OR NATURE IN ANY COURT OR TRIBUNAL IN WHICH AN ACTION MAY BE COMMENCED BY OR AGAINST ANY PARTY HERETO ARISING OUT OF THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR BY REASON OF ANY OTHER SUIT, CAUSE OF ACTION OR DISPUTE WHATSOEVER BETWEEN OR AMONG GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS OF ANY KIND OR NATURE RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

 

b.             EACH OF THE GUARANTOR, THE AGENT AND EACH LENDER HEREBY AGREES THAT ANY FEDERAL DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN NEW YORK OR, AT THE OPTION OF THE AGENT, ANY STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN OR AMONG GUARANTOR, THE AGENT OR ANY OF THE LENDERS, PERTAINING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY TO THIS GUARANTY OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING HEREFROM OR THEREFROM.  GUARANTOR AND EACH OF THE LENDERS EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED IN SUCH COURTS WITH RESPECT TO SUCH CLAIMS OR DISPUTES.  EACH PARTY FURTHER WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH 

 

B-2-8











 

ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM AND EACH AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME.  THE CHOICE OF FORUM SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION SHALL NOT BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE THE BRINGING OF ANY ACTION BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OR THE ENFORCEMENT BY THE AGENT OR ANY LENDER OF ANY JUDGMENT OBTAINED IN SUCH FORUM IN ANY OTHER APPROPRIATE JURISDICTION.

 

c.             THE PROVISIONS OF THIS SECTION HAVE BEEN CONSIDERED BY EACH PARTY WITH THE ADVICE OF COUNSEL AND WITH A FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE LEGAL CONSEQUENCES THEREOF, AND SHALL SURVIVE THE PAYMENT OF THE LOANS AND ALL OTHER AMOUNTS PAYABLE HEREUNDER OR UNDER THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE TERMINATION OR EXPIRATION OF ALL LETTERS OF CREDIT AND THE TERMINATION OF THIS GUARANTY.

 

Section 18.            Loan Accounts.  The Agent, each Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender may maintain books and accounts setting forth the amounts of principal, interest and other sums paid and payable with respect to the Guarantied Obligations, and in the case of any dispute relating to any of the outstanding amount, payment or receipt of any of the Guarantied Obligations or otherwise, the entries in such books and accounts shall be deemed conclusive evidence of the amounts and other matters set forth herein, absent manifest error.  The failure of the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender to maintain such books and accounts shall not in any way relieve or discharge Guarantor of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

Section 19.            Waiver of Remedies.  No delay or failure on the part of the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender in the exercise of any right or remedy it may have against Guarantor hereunder or otherwise shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender of any such right or remedy shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right or remedy.

 

Section 20.            Termination.  This Guaranty shall remain in full force and effect until the termination of the Credit Agreement in accordance with Section 13.10. of the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 21.            Successors and Assigns.  Each reference herein to the Agent or the Lenders shall be deemed to include such Person’s respective successors and assigns (including, but not limited to, any holder of the Guarantied Obligations) in whose favor the provisions of this Guaranty also shall inure, and each reference herein to Guarantor shall be deemed to include Guarantor’s successors and assigns, upon whom this Guaranty also shall be binding.  The Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender may, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Credit Agreement, assign, transfer or sell any Guarantied Obligation, or grant or sell participations in any Guarantied Obligations, to any Person without the consent of, or notice to, Guarantor and without releasing, discharging or modifying Guarantor’s obligations hereunder.  Subject to Section 13.8. of the Credit Agreement, Guarantor hereby consents to the delivery by the Agent or any Lender to any Assignee or Participant (or any prospective Assignee or Participant) of any financial or other information regarding the Borrower or Guarantor.  

 

B-2-9











 

Guarantor may not assign or transfer its obligations hereunder to any Person without the prior written consent of all Lenders and any such assignment or other transfer to which all of the Lenders have not so consented shall be null and void.

 

Section 22.            [Reserved.]

 

Section 23.            Amendments.  This Guaranty may not be amended other than in writing in accordance with the terms of Section 13.6. of the Credit Agreement.

All notices, requests and other communications hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile transmission or similar writing) and shall be given (a) to Guarantor at its address set forth below its signature hereto, (b) to the Agent, any Lender, the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender at its respective address for notices provided for in the Credit Agreement, or (c) as to each such party at such other address as such party shall designate in a written notice to the other parties.  Each such notice, request or other communication shall be effective (i) if mailed, when received; (ii) if telecopied, when transmitted; or (iii) if hand delivered, when delivered; provided, however, that any notice of a change of address for notices shall not be effective until received.

 

Section 26.            Severability.  In case any provision of this Guaranty shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

 

Section 27.            Headings.  Section headings used in this Guaranty are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction of this Guaranty.

 

Section 28.            Limitation of Liability.
