Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the Agreement.

 

1.             Pursuant to the provisions of paragraph 11C of the Agreement, and subject to the terms and conditions of this letter agreement, the undersigned holders of Notes (the “Noteholders”) and the Company agree that the Agreement is hereby amended, as follows:

 

1.1          Paragraph 5H is amended and restated, as follows:

 

“5H.       Subsequent Guarantors; Release of Guarantors; Collateral.  (a)  Together with each delivery of financial statements required by paragraphs 5A(i) or (ii), the Company shall notify the holders of the Notes in writing if any Subsidiary has become a Material Domestic Subsidiary.  The Company covenants that, upon the earlier of (i) within 30 days after any notice referred to in the immediately preceding sentence (or such longer period as determined in writing by the Required Holders in their sole discretion) if such Subsidiary is not a Guarantor at such time, and (ii) concurrently with such time as any Person becomes a guarantor or other obligor under the Bank Credit Agreement or any Other Note Agreement, the Company shall cause such Person to (1) become a party to each of the Multiparty Guaranty and the Indemnity and Contribution Agreement by executing and delivering to the holders of the Notes a joinder or counterpart to the Multiparty Guaranty and the Indemnity and Contribution Agreement, and (2) deliver to the holders of the Notes such organization documents, resolutions and favorable opinions of counsel, all in form, content and scope similar to those delivered on the Closing Date or otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clause (i) of the second sentence of this paragraph 5H(a) (but subject to clause (ii) of the second sentence of this paragraph 5H(a)), the Company will be deemed to have complied with the requirements of clause (i) of the second sentence of this paragraph 5H(a) with respect to the Subsidiaries of the Company acquired pursuant to the Horizon Acquisition if, on or before September 15, 2015 (or such longer period as determined in writing by the Required Holders in their sole discretion), the Company shall cause each of such Subsidiaries to comply with the requirements set forth in clauses (1) and (2) of the second sentence of this paragraph 5H(a).

 

(b)           If (i) any Guarantor ceases to be a Material Domestic Subsidiary (based on the most recent financial statements delivered to the holders of the Notes pursuant to paragraphs 5A(i) or (ii)), or (ii) if any Person which has become a Guarantor by virtue of clause (ii) of 

 











 

paragraph 5H(a) (and which is not at the applicable time of determination a Material Domestic Subsidiary (based on the most recent financial statements delivered to the holders of the Notes pursuant to paragraphs 5A(i) or (ii))) ceases to be required to be a guarantor or other obligor of the credit facilities under the Bank Credit Agreement and each Other Note Agreement, and if, in the case of either of the immediately preceding clause (i) or (ii), after giving effect to the release of such Guarantor of its obligations under the Multiparty Guaranty, no Default or Event of Default would exist, then the Company may deliver to each holder of Notes a certificate of a Responsible Officer as to the foregoing requirements and, upon the later of (x) such delivery and (y) concurrently with such time as that Guarantor has been released from all of its obligations as a guarantor or other obligor of the credit facilities under the Bank Credit Agreement and each Other Note Agreement, that Guarantor shall be released automatically from all of its obligations under the Multiparty Guaranty and the Indemnity and Contribution Agreement, without further approval or action by any holder of Notes; provided that if any consideration is given to any party to the Bank Credit Agreement or any Other Note Agreement for such release of such Guarantor, then the holders of the Notes shall be paid an amount equal to their ratable share of such consideration concurrently therewith.”

 

1.2          A new paragraph 5K is inserted, as follows:

 

“5K        Collateral.  At any time and from time to time, at the written election of the Company delivered to the holders of the Notes (a “Collateral Election”), the Company shall deliver to the Collateral Agent, or shall cause Matson Navigation and/or one or more other Guarantors, as applicable, to deliver to the Collateral Agent, effective on such date or on a Business Day thereafter as specified in the Collateral Election:  (i) one or more Security Agreements (each duly executed by the applicable grantor under such Security Agreement) and such other documents as are necessary for the due perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien in the applicable Collateral; and (ii) upon the original execution of each Security Agreement, resolutions in form and substance relating thereto reasonably satisfactory to the Required Holders and the Collateral Agent.  In addition, from time to time on or after the First Amendment Effective Date the Company may enter into additional note purchase and/or credit agreements with lenders which are not party to the Intercreditor Agreement as of the First Amendment Effective Date for purpose of such additional note purchase and/or credit agreements, and the Company may designate, at the written election of the Company delivered to the holders of the Notes, such lenders to become parties to the Intercreditor Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may, at any time and from time to time, by written notice thereof of the Company delivered to the holders of the Notes, elect to revoke, or cause Matson Navigation and/or one or more other Guarantors, as applicable, to revoke any prior Collateral Election with respect to one or more (as applicable) Security Agreements, and the holders of the Notes hereby consent to the Collateral Agent’s delivering, at the expense of the Company, such releases as are necessary to evidence the termination of the applicable Liens.”

(xi)  any Lien created pursuant to any Collateral Document;”

 

1.5          Paragraph 6C(4) is amended and restated to read as follows:

 

“6C(4).   Sale of Capital Assets.  Sell, lease or transfer or otherwise dispose of any Capital Asset to any Person, except that (i) any Credit Party may sell or otherwise dispose of any Capital Asset to any other Credit Party, (ii) any Subsidiary that is not a Credit Party may sell or otherwise dispose of any Capital Asset to the Company or any other Subsidiary and (iii) during any rolling twelve-month period, the Company or any Subsidiary may sell or otherwise dispose of Capital Assets which constituted up to 10% of the total value of the consolidated assets of Matson Navigation and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014, so long as (A) such Capital Assets sold contributed less than 25% of the Consolidated Net Income of the Company in each of the three fiscal years immediately preceding any such sale and (B) such Capital Assets, when considered together with all other Capital Assets sold or otherwise disposed of subsequent to December 31, 2014, do not constitute in excess of 30% of the total value of the consolidated assets of Matson Navigation and its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2014, provided that this covenant shall not apply to any Lien permitted hereunder;”

(c)           all Proceeds of any of such property in whatever form, whether derived from voluntary or involuntary disposition, all products of any of such property, all renewals, replacements, substitutions, and additions to or from any such property..

 

The Security Interest created herein shall be subject to any applicable restriction to the creation of a Security Interest to the extent that such restriction is not made ineffective by UCC Sections 9-406, 9-407, 9-408, or 9-409.

 

4.             REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES.  The Obligor represents and warrants that:

 

4.1          Authority.  The Obligor has full power and authority to grant security interests in the Collateral, to execute and deliver this Agreement, and to perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other person except as may have been specifically disclosed to the Secured Parties in writing.

 

4.2          Information Regarding Names.  The Obligor has disclosed to the Secured Parties in Schedule I hereto complete and correct information regarding the Obligor’s exact legal name, type of organization and jurisdiction of incorporation.

 

5.             COVENANTS AND AGREEMENTS OF THE OBLIGOR.  The Obligor covenants and agrees as follows:

 

5











 

5.1          Information Regarding Names.  At least 10 days (or such shorter period of time approved in writing by the Collateral Agent) before changing its name or adopting a new name, the Obligor shall give written notice to the Collateral Agent of any new name of the Obligor.

 

5.2          Further Assurances and Authority of Collateral Agent.  The Obligor shall from time to time on and after the Granting Date execute, deliver, file and record all such further agreements, instruments, financing statements, notices and other documents (including any information necessary to update Schedule I hereto) as may be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent to perfect or preserve the Security Interest, to enable the Collateral Agent to notify any third parties of the existence of the Collateral Agent’s Security Interest, or otherwise to carry out the intent of this Agreement.  On and after the Granting Date, the Obligor authorizes the Collateral Agent to file financing statements where desirable in the Collateral Agent’s judgment to perfect the Security Interest under the UCC without the signature of the Obligor.

 

6.             RELEASE OF COLLATERAL; TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT.  Provided that no Event of Default under any of the Financing Agreements has then occurred and is continuing, upon the earlier of (a) delivery of the Vessel (as defined in the Shipbuilding Contract) to the Obligor and (b) delivery of a written Notice of Termination of Security Interest from the Obligor to the Collateral Agent in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto (which the Obligor may deliver to the Collateral Agent at any time in its sole discretion with or without the occurrence or happening of any event and without any further action on the part of any party hereto, but, as an abundance of caution, subject to the proviso at the beginning of this sentence), the Security Interest in the Collateral shall be automatically terminated and released, and this Security Agreement shall automatically terminate and no longer be of any force or effect without any further action of any party.  The Collateral Agent agrees, at the sole expense of the Obligor, to promptly file UCC amendments and execute and deliver any other documents or instruments reasonably requested by Obligor to evidence the termination of the Security Interest so released.

 

7.             RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE SECURED PARTIES UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT.

 

7.1          Effect of Event of Default Remedies.  If any Event of Default described in the Financing Documents shall occur and be continuing, the Collateral Agent shall have all of the rights, powers and remedies with respect to the Collateral of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code of the state in which such rights, powers and remedies are asserted.

 

7.2          Application of Proceeds.  Subject to the rights of any prior secured party, any proceeds received by the Secured Parties in respect of any sale of collection from, or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral following the occurrence of an Event of Default shall be applied as set forth in the Intercreditor Agreement.

 

7.3          Notice.  Any notice required to be given by the Collateral Agent of a sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, or any other intended action by the Collateral Agent, which is sent pursuant to Section 11 hereof at least ten (10) days prior to such proposed action, or such longer period as shall be specified by applicable law, shall constitute commercially reasonable and fair notice thereof to the Obligor.

 

8.             REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE; FORECLOSURES.  No right or remedy hereunder is exclusive of any other right or remedy.  Each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to and without prejudice to every other remedy given hereunder, under any other agreement 

 

6











 

between the Obligor and the Collateral Agent or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, and may be exercised from time to time as often as deemed expedient, separately or concurrently.  The giving, taking or enforcement of or execution against any other or additional security, collateral, or guaranty for the payment of the Guaranty Obligations shall not operate to prejudice, waive or affect any rights, powers or remedies hereunder, nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to first look to, enforce, exhaust or execute against such other or additional security, or guarantees prior to so acting against the Collateral.  The Collateral Agent may foreclose on or execute against the items of Collateral in such order as the Collateral Agent may, in its sole and unfettered discretion, determine.

 

9.             WAIVERS.  The failure or delay of the Collateral Agent to insist in any instances upon the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or other Financing Documents, or to exercise any right, remedy or privilege herein or therein conferred, shall not impair or be construed as thereafter waiving any such covenants, remedies, conditions or provisions, but every such term, condition and covenant shall continue and remain in full force and effect; nor shall any waiver of an Event of Default suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different type.

 

10.          SEVERABILITY.  Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

 

11.          NOTICE.  All notices, demands and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be by messenger or overnight air courier, facsimile transmission, e-mail or United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered (or, if such day is not a business day, the next occurring business day) by messenger or overnight air courier, upon completion of facsimile transmission or e-mail (with, in each case, electronic confirmation of receipt) or two business days after deposit in the United States mail, registered or certified, with postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth on the signature page hereof, or at such other address as any party shall have furnished to the other parties in writing in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.

 

12.          GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

13.          WAIVERS BY THE OBLIGOR.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, the Obligor waives:  (i) presentment, demand, and protest and notice of presentment, protest, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of any or all Financing Documents under or pursuant to which the Obligor may in any way be liable and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever the Collateral Agent or Secured Parties may do in this regard; (ii) notice prior to taking possession or control of Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing the Collateral Agent to exercise any remedies; (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement, and exemption laws; (iv) any right to require the Collateral Agent to proceed against any other person or collateral held from any other person; (v) any right to require the Collateral Agent to pursue any other remedy in the Collateral Agent’s power whatsoever; or (vi) any defense arising out of any election by Collateral Agent to exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it may have against the Obligor, any other person or any security held by it, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement to subrogation or other right or remedy of the Obligor against any other person or any such security.

 

7











 

14.          ADDITIONAL SECURED PARTIES.  If any Loan Party enters into any other Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement), then, upon written notice by the Obligor to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, the holders of the indebtedness under such Note Purchase Agreements shall become additional Secured Parties (each, an “Additional Secured Party”) hereunder.  Effective upon such notice, each Additional Secured Party shall have the same rights and obligations as the other Secured Parties hereunder and the term “Secured Parties” as used herein shall be deemed to include each such Additional Secured Party.  Notwithstanding Section 15.2, no consent of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party shall be necessary to add such holders as additional Secured Parties.

 

15.          MISCELLANEOUS.  The Obligor agrees that the following shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement:

 

15.1        Binding on Successors.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the Obligor, the administrators, successors and assigns of the Obligor, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Collateral Agent, its successors, transferees and assigns.

 

15.2        No Oral Modifications.  None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, modified, limited or amended except pursuant to the agreement thereto of the parties hereto in writing.

 

15.3        Section Titles.  The section titles contained in this Agreement are merely for convenience and shall be without substantive meaning or content.

 

15.4        Construction.  The word “including” shall have the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “including without limitation.”  Unless the context of this Agreement clearly otherwise requires, the word “or” shall have the meaning represented by the phrase “and/or,” references to the plural include the singular and references to the singular include the plural.

 

16.          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  The Obligor and the Collateral Agent each irrevocably and unconditionally waive trial by jury in any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document and for any counterclaim therein.

8.             REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE; FORECLOSURES.  No right or remedy hereunder is exclusive of any other right or remedy.  Each and every right and remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to and without prejudice to every other remedy given hereunder, under any other agreement

between the Obligor and the Collateral Agent or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, and may be exercised from time to time as often as deemed expedient, separately or concurrently.  The giving, taking or enforcement of or execution against any other or additional security, collateral, or guaranty for the payment of the Guaranty Obligations shall not operate to prejudice, waive or affect any rights, powers or remedies hereunder, nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to first look to, enforce, exhaust or execute against such other or additional security, or guarantees prior to so acting against the Collateral.  The Collateral Agent may foreclose on or execute against the items of Collateral in such order as the Collateral Agent may, in its sole and unfettered discretion, determine.

 

9.             WAIVERS.  The failure or delay of the Collateral Agent to insist in any instances upon the performance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement or other Financing Documents, or to exercise any right, remedy or privilege herein or therein conferred, shall not impair or be construed as thereafter waiving any such covenants, remedies, conditions or provisions, but every such term, condition and covenant shall continue and remain in full force and effect; nor shall any waiver of an Event of Default suspend, waive or affect any other Event of Default, whether the same is prior or subsequent thereto and whether of the same or of a different type.

 

10.          SEVERABILITY.  Wherever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective.  If any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

 

11.          NOTICE.  All notices, demands and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be by messenger or overnight air courier, facsimile transmission, e-mail or United States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered (or, if such day is not a business day, the next occurring business day) by messenger or overnight air courier, upon completion of facsimile transmission or e-mail (with, in each case, electronic confirmation of receipt) or two business days after deposit in the United States mail, registered or certified, with postage prepaid, addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth on the signature page hereof, or at such other address as any party shall have furnished to the other parties in writing in accordance with the requirements of this Section 11.

 

12.          GOVERNING LAW.  This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

13.          WAIVERS BY THE OBLIGOR.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or the other Financing Documents, the Obligor waives:  (i) presentment, demand, and protest and notice of presentment, protest, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of any or all Financing Documents under or pursuant to which the Obligor may in any way be liable and hereby ratifies and confirms whatever the Collateral Agent or Secured Parties may do in this regard; (ii) notice prior to taking possession or control of Collateral or any bond or security that might be required by any court prior to allowing the Collateral Agent to exercise any remedies; (iii) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement, and exemption laws; (iv) any right to require the Collateral Agent to proceed against any other person or collateral held from any other person; (v) any right to require the Collateral Agent to pursue any other remedy in the Collateral Agent’s power whatsoever; or (vi) any defense arising out of any election by Collateral Agent to exercise or not exercise any right or remedy it may have against the Obligor, any other person or any security held by it, even though such election operates to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement to subrogation or other right or remedy of the Obligor against any other person or any such security.

14.          ADDITIONAL SECURED PARTIES.  If any Loan Party enters into any other Note Purchase Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement), then, upon written notice by the Obligor to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties, the holders of the indebtedness under such Note Purchase Agreements shall become additional Secured Parties (each, an “Additional Secured Party”) hereunder.  Effective upon such notice, each Additional Secured Party shall have the same rights and obligations as the other Secured Parties hereunder and the term “Secured Parties” as used herein shall be deemed to include each such Additional Secured Party.  Notwithstanding Section 15.2, no consent of the Collateral Agent or any Secured Party shall be necessary to add such holders as additional Secured Parties.

 

15.          MISCELLANEOUS.  The Obligor agrees that the following shall govern the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement:

 

15.1        Binding on Successors.  This Agreement shall be binding upon the Obligor, the administrators, successors and assigns of the Obligor, and shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Collateral Agent, its successors, transferees and assigns.

 

15.2        No Oral Modifications.  None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, altered, modified, limited or amended except pursuant to the agreement thereto of the parties hereto in writing.

 

15.3        Section Titles.  The section titles contained in this Agreement are merely for convenience and shall be without substantive meaning or content.

 

15.4        Construction.  The word “including” shall have the inclusive meaning represented by the phrase “including without limitation.”  Unless the context of this Agreement clearly otherwise requires, the word “or” shall have the meaning represented by the phrase “and/or,” references to the plural include the singular and references to the singular include the plural.

 

16.          WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  The Obligor and the Collateral Agent each irrevocably and unconditionally waive trial by jury in any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Financing Document and for any counterclaim therein.
