EXHIBIT 10.7

 

SENOMYX, INC.
 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

 

NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR
 (NONSTATUTORY STOCK OPTION)

 

Pursuant to the Stock Option Grant Notice (the “Grant Notice”) and this Option Agreement (this “Option Agreement”), Senomyx, Inc. (the “Company”) has granted you an option (the “Option”) under its 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock indicated in the Grant Notice at the exercise price indicated in the Grant Notice.  The Option is granted to you effective as of the date of grant set forth in the Grant Notice (the “Date of Grant”).  If there is any conflict between the terms in this Option Agreement and the Plan, the terms of the Plan will control.  Capitalized terms not explicitly defined in this Option Agreement or in the Grant Notice but defined in the Plan will have the same definitions as in the Plan.

 

The details of the Option, in addition to those set forth in the Grant Notice and the Plan, are as follows:

 

1.                                      VESTING.

 

(a)                                 Subject to the provisions contained herein, the Option will vest as provided in the Grant Notice; provided, that vesting will cease upon the termination of your Continuous Service.  In addition, if the company is subject to a Change in Control before your Continuous Service terminates, then all of the unvested shares subject to the Option will become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the effective date of such Change in Control.

 

(b)                                 If any payment or benefit you would receive from the Company or otherwise in connection with a Change in Control or other similar transaction (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment will be equal to the Reduced Amount.  The “Reduced Amount” will be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, or (y) the largest portion, up to and including the total amount, of the Payment, whichever amount ((x) or (y)), after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in your receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax.  If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting “parachute payments” is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced Amount, any reduction will occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit to you.

 

(c)                                  The independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the Company for general audit purposes as of the day prior to the effective date of the event described in Section 280G(b)(2)(A)(i) of the Code will perform the foregoing calculations.  If the

 

1

 

independent registered public accounting firm so engaged by the Company is serving as accountant or auditor for the individual, entity or group effecting such Change in Control or similar transaction, the Company will appoint a nationally recognized independent registered public accounting firm to make the determinations required hereunder.  The Company will bear all expenses with respect to the determinations by such independent registered public accounting firm required to be made hereunder.  The independent registered public accounting firm engaged to make the determinations hereunder will provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Company and to you within thirty (30) calendar days after the date on which your right to a Payment is triggered (if requested at that time by the Company or you) or such other time as reasonably requested by the Company or you.  Any good faith determinations of the independent registered public accounting firm made hereunder will be final, binding and conclusive upon the Company and you.

 

2.                                      NUMBER OF SHARES AND EXERCISE PRICE.  The number of shares of Common Stock subject to the Option and the exercise price per share in the Grant Notice will be adjusted for Capitalization Adjustments.

 

3.                                      EXERCISE PRIOR TO VESTING (“EARLY EXERCISE”).  You may not exercise the Option prior to vesting.

 

4.                                      METHOD OF PAYMENT.  You must pay the full amount of the exercise price for the shares of Common Stock subject to the Option that you wish to exercise.  You may pay the exercise price in cash or by check, bank draft or money order payable to the Company or in any other manner permitted by the Grant Notice, which may include one or more of the following:

 

(a)                                 Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded, pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that, prior to the issuance of Common Stock, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.  This manner of payment is also known as a “broker-assisted exercise”, “same day sale”, or “sell to cover”.

 

(b)                                 Provided that at the time of exercise the Common Stock is publicly traded, by delivery to the Company (either by actual delivery or attestation) of already-owned shares of Common Stock that are owned free and clear of any liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests, and that are valued at Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.  “Delivery” for these purposes, in the sole discretion of the Company at the time you exercise the Option, will include delivery to the Company of your attestation of ownership of such shares of Common Stock in a form approved by the Company.  You may not exercise the Option by delivery to the Company of Common Stock if doing so would violate the provisions of any law, regulation or agreement restricting the redemption of the Company’s stock.

 

(c)                                  If the Option is a Nonstatutory Stock Option, subject to the consent of the Company at the time of exercise, by a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of shares of Common Stock issued upon exercise of the Option by the largest whole number of shares with a Fair Market Value that does not exceed the aggregate exercise price.  You must pay any remaining balance of the aggregate exercise price

not satisfied by the “net exercise” in cash or other permitted form of payment.  Shares of Common Stock will no longer be outstanding under the Option and will not be exercisable thereafter if those shares (i) are used to pay the exercise price pursuant to the “net exercise,” (ii) are delivered to you as a result of such exercise, and (iii) are withheld to satisfy your tax withholding obligations.

 

5.                                      WHOLE SHARES.  You may exercise the Option only for whole shares of Common Stock.

 

6.                                      SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE.  In no event may you exercise the Option unless the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise are then registered under the Securities Act or, if not registered, the Company has determined that your exercise and the issuance of the shares would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.  The exercise of the Option also must comply with all other applicable laws and regulations governing the Option, and you may not exercise the Option if the Company determines that such exercise would not be in material compliance with such laws and regulations (including any restrictions on exercise required for compliance with Treasury Regulation Section 1.401(k)-1(d)(3), if applicable).

 

7.                                      TERM.  You may not exercise the Option before the Date of Grant or after the expiration of the Option’s term.  The term of the Option expires, subject to the provisions of Section 5(h) of the Plan, upon the earliest of the following:

 

(a)                                 immediately upon the termination of your Continuous Service for Cause;

 

(b)                                 twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous Service for any reason other than Cause, your Disability or your death (except as otherwise provided in Section 7(d) below); provided, however, that if during any part of such twelve (12) month period the Option is not exercisable solely because of the condition set forth in Section 6 relating to “Securities Law Compliance,” the Option will not expire until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it has been exercisable for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous Service; provided further, if during any part of such twelve (12) month period, the sale of any Common Stock received upon exercise of the Option would violate the Company’s insider trading policy, then the Option will not expire until the earlier of the Expiration Date or until it has been exercisable for an aggregate period of twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous Service during which the sale of the Common Stock received upon exercise of the Option would not be in violation of the Company’s insider trading policy;

 

(c)                                  twelve (12) months after the termination of your Continuous Service due to your Disability (except as otherwise provided in Section 7(d)) below;

 

(d)                                 eighteen (18) months after your death if you die either during your Continuous Service or within three (3) months after your Continuous Service terminates for any reason other than Cause;

 

(e)                                  the Expiration Date indicated in the Grant Notice; or

 

3

 

(f)                                   the day before the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Date of Grant.

 

8.                                      EXERCISE.

 

(a)                                 You may exercise the vested portion of the Option (and the unvested portion of the Option if the Grant Notice so permits) during its term by (i) delivering a Notice of Exercise (in a form designated by the Company) or completing such other documents and/or procedures designated by the Company for exercise and (ii) paying the exercise price and any applicable withholding taxes to the Company’s Secretary, stock plan administrator, or such other person as the Company may designate, together with such additional documents as the Company may then require.

 

(b)                                 By exercising the Option you agree that, as a condition to any exercise of the Option, the Company may require you to enter into an arrangement providing for the payment by you to the Company of any tax withholding obligation of the Company arising by reason of (i) the exercise of the Option, (ii) the lapse of any substantial risk of forfeiture to which the shares of Common Stock are subject at the time of exercise, or (iii) the disposition of shares of Common Stock acquired upon such exercise.

 

9.                                      TRANSFERABILITY.  Except as otherwise provided in this Section 9, the Option is not transferable, except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during your life only by you.

 

(a)                                 Certain Trusts.  Upon receiving written permission from the Board or its duly authorized designee, you may transfer the Option to a trust if you are considered to be the sole beneficial owner (determined under Section 671 of the Code and applicable state law) while the Option is held in the trust.  You and the trustee must enter into transfer and other agreements required by the Company.

 

(b)                                 Domestic Relations Orders.  Upon receiving written permission from the Board or its duly authorized designee, and provided that you and the designated transferee enter into transfer and other agreements required by the Company, you may transfer the Option pursuant to the terms of a domestic relations order, official marital settlement agreement or other divorce or separation instrument as permitted by Treasury Regulation 1.421-1(b)(2) that contains the information required by the Company to effectuate the transfer.  You are encouraged to discuss the proposed terms of any division of the Option with the Company prior to finalizing the domestic relations order or marital settlement agreement to help ensure the required information is contained within the domestic relations order or marital settlement agreement.

 

(c)                                  Beneficiary Designation.  Upon receiving written permission from the Board or its duly authorized designee, you may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form approved by the Company and any broker designated by the Company to handle option exercises, designate a third party who, on your death, will thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option and receive the Common Stock or other consideration resulting from such exercise.  In the absence of such a designation, your executor or administrator of your estate will be entitled to exercise the Option and receive, on behalf of your estate, the Common Stock or other consideration resulting from such exercise.

 

4

 

10.                               OPTION NOT A SERVICE CONTRACT.  The Option is not an employment or service contract, and nothing in the Option will be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on your part to continue in the employ of the Company or an Affiliate, or of the Company or an Affiliate to continue your employment.  In addition, nothing in the Option will obligate the Company or an Affiliate, their respective stockholders, boards of directors, officers or employees to continue any relationship that you might have as a Director or Consultant for the Company or an Affiliate.

 

11.                               WITHHOLDING OBLIGATIONS.

 

(a)                                 At the time you exercise the Option, in whole or in part, and at any time thereafter as requested by the Company, you hereby authorize withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to you, and otherwise agree to make adequate provision for (including by means of a “same day sale” pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board to the extent permitted by the Company), any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax withholding obligations of the Company or an Affiliate, if any, which arise in connection with the exercise of the Option.

 

(b)                                 You may not exercise the Option unless the tax withholding obligations of the Company and/or any Affiliate are satisfied.  Accordingly, you may not be able to exercise the Option when desired even though the Option (or any portion thereof) is vested, and the Company will have no obligation to issue a certificate for such shares of Common Stock or release such shares of Common Stock from any escrow provided for herein, if applicable, unless such obligations are satisfied.

 

12.                               TAX CONSEQUENCES.  You hereby agree that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes your tax liabilities.  You will not make any claim against the Company, or any of its Officers, Directors, Employees or Affiliates related to tax liabilities arising from the Option or your other compensation.  In particular, you acknowledge that the Option is exempt from Section 409A of the Code only if the exercise price per share specified in the Grant Notice is at least equal to the “fair market value” per share of the Common Stock on the Date of Grant and there is no other impermissible deferral of compensation associated with the Option.

 

13.                               NOTICES.  Any notices provided for in the Option, the Grant Notice, this Option Agreement or the Plan will be given in writing (including electronically) and will be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by mail by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at the last address you provided to the Company.  The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to participation in the Plan and the Option by electronic means or to request your consent to participate in the Plan by electronic means.  By accepting the Option, you consent to receive such documents by electronic delivery and to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or another third party designated by the Company.

14.                               GOVERNING PLAN DOCUMENT.  The Option is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of which are hereby made a part of the Option, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations, which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan.  If there is any conflict between the provisions of the Option and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan will control.  In addition, the Option (and any compensation paid or shares issued under the Option) is subject to recoupment in accordance with The Dodd—Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and any implementing regulations thereunder, any clawback policy adopted by the Company and any compensation recovery policy otherwise required by applicable law.

 

15.                               OTHER DOCUMENTS.  You hereby acknowledge receipt of and the right to receive a document providing the information required by Rule 428(b)(1) promulgated under the Securities Act, which includes the Plan prospectus.  In addition, you acknowledge receipt of the Company’s policy permitting certain individuals to sell shares only during certain “window” periods and the Company’s insider trading policy, in effect from time to time.

 

16.                               VOTING RIGHTS.  You will not have voting or any other rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to the shares to be issued pursuant to the Option until such shares are issued to you.  Upon such issuance, you will obtain full voting and other rights as a stockholder of the Company.  Nothing contained in the Option, and no action taken pursuant to its provisions, will create or be construed to create a trust of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between you and the Company or any other person.

 

17.                               SEVERABILITY.  If all or any part of this Option Agreement or the Plan is declared by any court or governmental authority to be unlawful or invalid, such unlawfulness or invalidity will not invalidate any portion of this Option Agreement or the Plan not declared to be unlawful or invalid.  Any Section of this Option Agreement (or part of such a Section) so declared to be unlawful or invalid shall, if possible, be construed in a manner which will give effect to the terms of such Section or part of a Section to the fullest extent possible while remaining lawful and valid.

 

18.                               MISCELLANEOUS.

 

(a)                                 The rights and obligations of the Company under the Option will be transferable to any one or more persons or entities, and all covenants and agreements hereunder will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by the Company’s successors and assigns.

 

(b)                                 You agree upon request to execute any further documents or instruments necessary or desirable in the sole determination of the Company to carry out the purposes or intent of the Option.

 

(c)                                  You acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed the Option in its entirety, have had an opportunity to obtain the advice of counsel prior to executing and accepting the Option, and fully understand all provisions of the Option.

 

(d)                                 This Option Agreement will be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by any governmental agencies or national securities exchanges as may be required.

 

6

 

(e)                                  All obligations of the Company under the Plan and this Option Agreement will be binding on any successor to the Company, whether the existence of such successor is the result of a direct or indirect purchase, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company.

 

*                                         *                                         *

 

This Option Agreement will be deemed to be signed by you upon your execution (either by actual signature, electronic acceptance or other electronic means) of the Grant Notice to which it is attached.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. (“you” or the “Borrower”) has advised Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”),  Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (or any of its designated affiliates, “MLPFS”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPMCB”) and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (“J.P.

The Acquisition will be effected through (i) the purchase of shares of common stock of the Target by Java Corp.

In connection with the Acquisition, the Borrower’s and its’ subsidiaries’ existing revolving and term loan credit facilities (the “Existing Credit Facilities”) and all existing indebtedness of the Acquired Business (other than Retained Debt, as defined in Annex IV hereto), will, in each case, be repaid in full, all commitments thereunder will be terminated and the security interests with respect thereto will be released (the “Refinancing”).  The Borrower, the Acquired Business and their respective subsidiaries are sometimes collectively referred to herein as the “Companies”.

 

You have also advised us that you intend to finance the Acquisition, the Refinancing, the costs and expenses related to the Transaction (as hereinafter defined) and the ongoing working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Companies after consummation of the Acquisition from the following sources (and that no financing other than the financing described herein will be required in connection with the Transaction):  (a) (i) $1,100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior secured term B loans (the “Term Loan Facilities”), (b) a $500,000,000 asset-based revolving facility of the Borrower and 

 

 

certain of its subsidiaries (the “ABL Facility”) and (c) $600,000,000 in gross proceeds from the issuance and sale by the Borrower of senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) or, if the Notes are not issued and sold on or prior to the date of consummation of the Acquisition, $600,000,000 in senior unsecured bridge loans (the “Bridge Loans” and together with any Rollover Loans and Exchange Notes (each, as defined in Annex III-A hereto), the “Bridge Facility” and, collectively with the Term Loan Facilities and the ABL Facility, the “Facilities”) made available to the Borrower as interim financing to the Permanent Securities (as defined in Annex III-A hereto), in each case, less the aggregate amount of equity proceeds received by the Borrower since the date of execution of this Commitment Letter (other than pursuant to management equity incentive plans).  The Acquisition, the Refinancing, the entering into and initial funding of the Term Loan Facilities and the ABL Facility and the issuance of the Notes and/or the entering into of the Bridge Facility, as applicable, and all related transactions are hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Transaction”.  The date of consummation of the Offer is referred to herein as the “Closing Date”.

As used herein, “Known Affiliates” of any person means, as to such person, known affiliates readily identifiable by name, but excluding any affiliate that is a bona fide debt fund or investment vehicle that is primarily engaged in, or that advises funds or other investment vehicles that are engaged in, making, purchasing, holding or otherwise investing in commercial loans, bonds or similar extensions of credit or securities in the ordinary course and with respect to which the Disqualified Lender does not, directly or indirectly, possess the power to direct or cause the direction of the investment policies of such entity.  Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments or participations in respect of, the Facilities and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Facilities constitute a condition to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date.  You agree, prior to the Syndication Date (as hereinafter defined), to actively assist, and to use your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business to actively assist, the Lead Arrangers in achieving a syndication of each of the Facilities that is reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Arrangers and you until the Syndication Date (as defined below); provided that, notwithstanding each Lead Arranger’s right to syndicate the Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto, it is agreed that (i) syndication of, or receipt of commitments or participations in respect of, all or any portion of an Initial Lender’s commitments hereunder prior to the date of the consummation of the Acquisition and the date of the initial funding under the Facilities shall not be a condition to such Initial Lender’s commitments and (ii) (a) except as you in your sole discretion may otherwise agree in writing,  no Initial Lender shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Facilities on the Closing Date) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Facilities, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the initial funding of the Facilities has occurred; (b) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Facilities until after the initial funding of the Facilities; and (c) each Initial Lender shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred and the initial funding under the Facilities has been made.  Such assistance shall include (a) your providing and (subject to customary non-reliance agreements) causing your advisors to provide, and using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Acquired Business, its subsidiaries and its advisors to provide, the Lead Arrangers and the Lenders upon request with all information reasonably deemed necessary by the Lead Arrangers to complete such 

 

3

 

syndication, including, but not limited to (x) information and evaluations prepared by you, the Acquired Business and your and its advisors, or on your or its behalf, relating to the Transaction as may be reasonably requested by us (including the Projections (as hereinafter defined), (y) customary forecasts prepared by management of the Borrower of balance sheets, income statements and cash flow statements for each fiscal quarter for the first twelve months following the Closing Date and for each year commencing with the first fiscal year following the Closing Date and for each of the succeeding five fiscal years thereafter, and (z) your using commercially reasonable efforts to prepare customary availability forecasts of the Companies for the ABL Facility as of the last day of each fiscal month for the first twelve months following the Closing Date; (b) your preparation of a customary information memorandum with respect to each of the Facilities (each, an “Information Memorandum”) and other customary materials to be used in connection with the syndication of each such Facility (collectively with the Summaries of Terms and any additional summary of terms prepared for distribution to Lenders, the “Information Materials”); (c) your using your commercially reasonable efforts to provide Information Memoranda for each of the Facilities no later than 15 business days after the date of the Commitment Letter and making your management available to participate in the marketing of the Facilities promptly following completion of such Information Memoranda; (d) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts of the Lead Arrangers benefit materially from your existing lending relationships and the existing banking relationships of the Acquired Business; (e) your using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, prior to April 4, 2014, monitored public corporate credit or family ratings (but not any specific rating) for you after giving effect to the Transaction and ratings of the Term Loan Facilities, the Bridge Facility and the Notes from Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Group, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. (“S&P”) (collectively, the “Ratings”); (f) until the Syndication Date, your ensuring, and with respect to the Acquired Business, using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure, that none of the Companies shall syndicate or issue, attempt to syndicate or issue, announce or authorize the announcement of the syndication or issuance of, or engage in discussions concerning the syndication or issuance of, any competing debt of the Companies (other than the Facilities), including any renewals or refinancings of any existing debt or consummate any acquisition or disposition outside the ordinary course of business (it being understood that (i) any disposition made for purposes of financing a portion of the Transaction shall be deemed to be outside the ordinary course of business, (ii) the disposition of K&G Men’s Company, Inc. shall be permitted and (iii) a disposition expressly required pursuant to Section 6.4 of the Acquisition Agreement as in effect on the date hereof shall be permitted), in each case, that, in the reasonable judgment of the Lead Arrangers, could reasonably be expected to materially and adversely affect the syndication of the Facilities without the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Lead Arrangers (it being understood that ordinary course working capital borrowings under the existing revolving credit facility of the Borrower shall be permitted); and (f) your otherwise assisting the Lead Arrangers in their syndication efforts, including by making appropriate officers and advisors of you, and using your commercially reasonable efforts to make the officers and advisors of the Acquired Business, available from time to time upon reasonable advance notice to attend and make presentations regarding the business and prospects of the Companies and the Transaction at one or more meetings of prospective Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, neither the obtaining of the Ratings referenced above nor the compliance with any of the other provisions set forth in clauses (a) through (f) above or any other provision of this paragraph shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date.

 

It is understood and agreed that the Lead Arrangers will manage and control all aspects of the syndication of the Facilities in consultation with you and, as to the selection of Lenders under the ABL Facility, with your approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and any titles offered to prospective Lenders, when commitments will be accepted and the final allocations of the commitments among the Lenders.  It is understood that no Lender participating in the Facilities will receive 

 

4

 

compensation from you in order to obtain its commitment, except on the terms contained herein and in the Summaries of Terms, without the consent of the Lead Arrangers.  It is also understood and agreed that the amount and distribution of the fees among the Lenders will be at the sole and absolute discretion of the Lead Arrangers.  It is further understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Facilities and in no event shall the commencement of successful completion of syndication of the Facilities constitute a condition to availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date.

 

3.                                      Information Requirements.  You hereby represent, warrant and covenant (with respect to Information relating to the Acquired Business, to the best of your knowledge) that (a) all written factual information, other than Projections (as defined below) and other forward-looking information or information of a general economic or industry nature, that has been or is hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives in connection with any aspect of the Transaction (including such information, to the best of your knowledge, relating to the Acquired Business) (the “Information”) is and will be complete and correct when taken as a whole, in all material respects, and does not and will not, taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a fact or omit to state a fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not materially misleading (after giving effect to all supplements and updates with respect thereto) and (b) all financial projections concerning the Companies that have been or are hereafter made available to the Lead Arrangers or any of the Lenders by or on behalf of you or any of your representatives (the “Projections”) (to the best of your knowledge, in the case of Projections provided by the Acquired Business) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time provided (it being understood and agreed that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts or a guarantee of financial performance or achievement, that the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, and that actual results may differ from the Projections and such differences may be material).  You agree that if at any time prior to the later of (a) the earlier of (i) the date on which a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter) is achieved and (ii) 60 days following the Closing Date (the earlier of such dates, the “Syndication Date”) and (b) the Closing Date, any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will promptly supplement, or cause to be supplemented (or in the case of Information or Projections relating to the Acquired Business, you will promptly notify the Lead Arrangers upon becoming aware that any such Information or Projections are incorrect in any material respect and will use commercially reasonable efforts to supplement), the Information and Projections so that such representations (to the best of your knowledge, in the case of the Acquired Business) will be correct in all material respects at such time. In issuing this commitment and in arranging and syndicating each of the Facilities, the Commitment Parties are and will be using and relying on the Information and the Projections without independent verification thereof.  For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this paragraph will constitute a condition to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date.

 

You acknowledge that (a) the Lead Arrangers on your behalf will make available Information Materials to the proposed syndicates of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (b) certain prospective Lenders (such Lenders, “Public Lenders”; all other Lenders, “Private Lenders”) may have personnel that do not wish to receive material non-public information (within the meaning of the United States federal securities laws, “MNPI”) with respect to the Companies, their respective affiliates or any other entity, or the respective securities of any of the foregoing, and who may be engaged in investment and other market-related activities with respect to such entities’ securities.  If requested, you will assist the Lead Arrangers in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials not containing MNPI (the “Public Information Materials”) to be distributed to prospective Public Lenders.

 

5

 

Before distribution of any Information Materials (a) to prospective Private Lenders, you shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Information Materials; and (b) to prospective Public Lenders, you shall provide the Lead Arrangers with a customary letter authorizing the dissemination of the Public Information Materials and confirming the absence of MNPI therefrom.  In addition, you hereby agree that (x) you will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify (and, at the request of the Lead Arrangers or any Administrative Agent (or their respective affiliates), shall identify) that portion of the Information Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders by clearly and conspicuously marking the same as “PUBLIC”; (y) all Information Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (z) the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agents (and their respective affiliates) shall be entitled to treat any Information Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”

 

You agree that the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agents (and their respective affiliates) on your behalf may distribute the following documents to all prospective Lenders, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers and Administrative Agents in writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distributions that such material should only be distributed to prospective Private Lenders:  (a) administrative materials for prospective Lenders such as lender meeting invitations and funding and closing memoranda, (b) notifications of changes to the terms of the Facilities and (c) drafts approved in writing by you and the Administrative Agents (or their respective affiliates) and final versions of definitive documents with respect to the Facilities.  If you advise the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agents that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Lenders, then the Lead Arrangers and the Administrative Agents will not distribute such materials to Public Lenders without further discussions with you.  You agree that Information Materials made available to prospective Public Lenders in accordance with this Commitment Letter shall not contain MNPI.

 

4.             Fees and Indemnities.

 

(a)           You agree to reimburse the Commitment Parties from time to time upon receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including, but not limited to, the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other out-of-pocket expenses of (x) one firm of lead counsel to the Commitment Parties (it being understood and agreed that Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP shall act as counsel to the Commitment Parties), (y) one firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction reasonably retained by the Administrative Agents and (z) solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to the affected Commitment Parties similarly situated and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket due diligence expenses) incurred in connection with the Facilities, the syndication thereof, the preparation of the Credit Documentation (as defined below) therefor and the other transactions contemplated hereby, whether or not the Closing Date occurs or any of the Credit Documentation is executed and delivered or any extensions of credit are made under either of the Facilities. Such amounts shall be paid on the earlier of (i) the Closing Date or (ii) three (3) business days following the termination of this Commitment Letter as provided below.  You acknowledge that the Administrative Agents may receive a benefit, including without limitation, a discount, credit or other accommodation, from any of such counsel based on the fees such counsel may receive on account of their relationship with us including, without limitation, fees paid pursuant hereto.  You agree to pay the fees set forth in the separate fee letter addressed to you dated the date hereof from the Commitment Parties (the “Fee Letter”).

 

(b)           You also agree to indemnify and hold harmless each of the Commitment Parties, each other Lender and each of their affiliates, successors and assigns and their respective partners, officers, directors, employees, trustees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and other representatives (each, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against (and will reimburse each Indemnified Party as the same are

 

6

 

incurred for) any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel to any Indemnified Party) (without duplication) of amounts payable by you pursuant to clause (a) above) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (a) any aspect of the Transaction or any of the other transactions contemplated thereby or (b) the Facilities, or any use made or proposed to be made with the proceeds thereof, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense (A) is found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, (B) arises from a material breach of such Indemnified Party’s obligations hereunder or (C) arises from a proceeding by an Indemnified Party against an Indemnified Party (other than an action involving (i) alleged conduct by you or any of your affiliates or (ii) against an arranger or administrative agent in its capacity as such).  In the case of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such Proceeding is brought by you, your equity holders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not an Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any aspect of the Transaction is consummated.  You also agree that (x) no Indemnified Party shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect, in contract or tort or otherwise) to you, the Acquired Business, or your or their subsidiaries or affiliates or to your or their respective equity holders or creditors or any other person arising out of, related to or in connection with any aspect of the Transaction, except to the extent of direct (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive) damages determined in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s (i) gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct or (ii) a material breach of such Indemnified Party’s obligations hereunder. It is further agreed that the Commitment Parties shall only have liability to you (as opposed to any other person), and that the Commitment Parties shall be severally liable solely in respect of their respective commitments to the Facilities and agreements set forth herein, on a several, and not joint, basis with any other Lender.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, no Indemnified Party shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic telecommunications or other information transmission systems, other than for direct, actual damages resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. You shall not, without the prior written consent of an Indemnified Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened Proceeding against an Indemnified Party in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnified Party unless (i) such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability or claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to any admission of liability. You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding affected without your written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

 

It is acknowledged that you and MLPFS and J.P. Morgan have entered into an Engagement Letter dated October 9, 2013 (the “Financial Advisor Engagement Letter”) whereby MLPFS and J.P. Morgan have been retained by you as your financial advisors in connection with the Acquisition.  You agree not to assert any claim you might allege based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of MLPFS and J.P. Morgan under the Financial Advisory Engagement Letter, and on the other hand, MLPFS, J.P. Morgan and their respective affiliates’ relationships with you as described and referred to in this Commitment Letter.

 

5.             Conditions to Financing.  The commitment of each Initial Lender with respect to the initial funding of each Facility is subject solely to (a) the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Annex IV hereto and (b) the execution and delivery of definitive credit documentation by all 

 

7

 

parties thereto with respect to each such Facility consistent with this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter and subject to the Funds Certain Provisions and giving effect to the ABL Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex I), the Term Loan Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex II) and the Bridge Loan Documentation Standard (as defined in Annex III, collectively, the “Documentation Standards”) (the “Credit Documentation”) prior to such initial funding.

 

Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Credit Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transaction to the contrary, (a) the Credit Documentation shall be in a form such that the terms thereof do not impair availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions in this paragraph 5 shall have been satisfied, (b) the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date shall be those set forth in paragraph (ii) of Annex IV hereto and (c) the only collateral the provision or perfection of a security interest in which will be a condition to the availability of the Facilities on the Closing Date shall be the collateral described in paragraph (ii) of Annex IV hereto.  The provisions of this paragraph are referred to herein as the “Funds Certain Provisions”.

 

Each of the parties hereto agrees that each of this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter is a binding and enforceable agreement (subject to the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law)) with respect to the subject matter contained herein, including an agreement to negotiate in good faith the Credit Documentation by the parties hereto in a manner consistent with this Commitment Letter and, to the extent applicable, the Fee Letter, it being acknowledged and agreed that the funding of the Facilities is subject only to the conditions precedent as provided herein.

The Lead Borrower shall be jointly and severally   liable for all obligations of the Canadian Borrower.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
GUARANTORS:
    	
 
    	
The obligations of the Borrowers under the   ABL Facility (including cash management, interest rate protection, other   hedging arrangements, and other bank products entered into with a Lender (or   any affiliate thereof) will be jointly and severally guaranteed by each of   the existing and future direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. subsidiaries of   the Lead Borrower (but excluding (i) unrestricted subsidiaries, (ii) immaterial   subsidiaries (to be defined in a mutually acceptable manner as to individual   and aggregate revenues or assets excluded), (iii) any subsidiary that is   prohibited, but only so long as such subsidiary would be prohibited, by   applicable law, rule or regulation or by any contractual obligation   existing on the Closing Date or existing at the time of acquisition thereof   after the Closing Date (so long as such prohibition did not arise as part of   such acquisition), in each case, from guaranteeing the ABL Facility or which   would require governmental (including regulatory) consent, approval, license   or authorization to provide a guarantee under the ABL Facility unless such   consent, approval, license or authorization has been received (but without   obligation to seek the same), (iv) any direct or indirect subsidiary of   a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957 of   the Code (a “CFC”), (v) any   domestic subsidiary with no material assets other than equity interests of   one or more foreign subsidiaries that are CFCs (a “Disregarded   Domestic Person”), (vi) not-for-profit subsidiaries   (collectively, the “U.S. Guarantors”).   In addition, the ABL Facility Documentation will contain carve outs for   “non-ECP Guarantors”, consistent with the standard LSTA provisions.   Additionally, wholly-owned Canadian subsidiaries of the Lead Borrower   (excluding the Canadian Borrower and those subsidiaries described in clauses   (i), (ii), (iii) and (vi) above) shall guarantee the obligations of   the Canadian Borrower (the “Canadian Guarantors”   and, together with the U.S. Guarantors, the “Guarantors”).   All guarantees will be guarantees of payment and not of collection. The   Target and its subsidiaries included in the Acquired Business that are not   excluded from the foregoing requirements pursuant to the terms described   above shall be required to become Guarantors (and grant liens in their assets   constituting Collateral that can be perfected by filing UCC financing   statements) on the Closing Date. Notwithstanding

LETTER OF CREDIT ISSUER:
    	
 
    	
JPMCB and any other ABL Lender that consents   to issuing Letters of Credit that is designated by the Lead Borrower with the   consent of the ABL Administrative Agent.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
ABL
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
FACILITY:
    	
 
    	
An aggregate principal amount of up to   $500,000,000 (as increased or reduced in accordance with the terms hereof,   the “Loan Cap”) will be available   to the Borrowers through a senior secured revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”),   which will include (i) a $150,000,000 sublimit for the issuance of   letters of credit on customary terms (each a “Letter of Credit”), and (ii) a   $50,000,000 sublimit for swing line loans on customary terms (each a “Swing Line Loan”).   A sublimit to be agreed will be available for Loans and Letters of Credit in   Canadian Dollars, Euro and Sterling.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
AVAILABILITY:
    	
 
    	
Up to $150,000,000 of advances will, subject   to the Loan Limit, be available under the ABL Facility on the Closing Date   and the Merger Closing Date to finance the Acquisition and the Refinancing plus,   at the Lead Borrower’s election, an additional amount sufficient to fund any   original issue discount or upfront fees required to be funded in connection   with the exercise of the “Market Flex” provisions set forth in the Fee   Letter; provided that the Borrowers may,   subject to the Loan Limit, issue Letters of Credit under the ABL Facility on   the Closing Date solely to replace (including by grandfathering) or backstop   existing letters of credit under the applicable Existing Credit Facility.

STANDARD:
    	
 
    	
The Credit Documentation for the ABL   Facility (i) shall be based upon senior secured asset-based revolving   credit facilities for similar borrowers with appropriate modifications to   baskets and materiality thresholds to reflect the size, leverage and ratings   of the Lead Borrower after giving effect to the Acquisition, (ii) shall   contain the terms and conditions set 
    

 

Annex I-2

 

	
 
    	
 
    	
forth in this ABL Summary of Terms,   (iii) shall reflect the operational and strategic requirements of the   Lead Borrower and its subsidiaries in light of their size, industries and   practices and (iv) shall reflect the customary agency and operational   requirements of the ABL Administrative Agent (collectively, the “ABL Documentation Standard”), in   each case, subject to the Funds Certain Provisions. The Credit Documentation   shall, subject to the “market flex” provisions contained in the Fee Letter,   contain only those conditions to borrowing, mandatory prepayments,   representations and warranties, covenants and events of default expressly set   forth in this ABL Summary of Terms, in each case, applicable to the Lead   Borrower and its subsidiaries and, subject to the ABL Documentation Standard   and certain other limitations as set forth herein, with standards,   qualifications, exceptions and grace and cure periods consistent with the ABL   Documentation Standard.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
SWINGLINE OPTION:
    	
 
    	
Swing Line Loans will be made available by   the ABL Administrative Agent on a same day basis for the Borrowers and in   minimum amounts to be agreed. Each ABL Lender shall be irrevocably and   unconditionally obligated to purchase, under certain circumstances, a   participation in each Swing Line Loan on a pro rata basis based on its   commitment under the ABL Facility.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
If any ABL Lender becomes a Defaulting   Lender, then the letter of credit and swing line exposure of such Defaulting   Lender will automatically be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders pro   rata in accordance with their commitments under the ABL Facility up to an   amount but only to the extent that, after such reallocation, the revolving   credit exposure of each non-Defaulting Lender does not exceed its respective   commitment. The Letter of Credit Issuer and Swing Line Lender may require the   Borrowers to repay such “uncovered” exposure in respect of the letters of   credit and Swing Line Loans and will have no obligation to issue new letters   of credit or Swing Line Loans to the extent such letters of credit or Swing   Line Loans would exceed the commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
INCREASE OPTION:
    	
 
    	
Provided that no default or event of default then exists or would arise   therefrom, upon notice to the ABL Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may   request from the existing ABL Lenders and/or prospective lenders that are   eligible assignees under the ABL Facility increases from time to time in the   ABL Facility by an aggregate amount for all such increases not exceeding   $150,000,000 (any such increase, a “Commitment Increase”);   provided that any such request for a   Commitment Increase shall be in a minimum amount to be agreed. Any Commitment   Increase shall be on the same terms and conditions as the ABL Facility (other   than the payment of any upfront or other fees paid to the ABL Lenders   participating in the Commitment Increase in amounts agreed to between the   Borrowers and such ABL Lenders). None of the existing ABL Lenders shall have   an obligation to increase their respective commitments to satisfy the   Borrowers’ requested increase in the ABL Facility. Any Commitment Increase   shall be subject to, among other conditions: (i) the execution 
    

 

Annex I-3

 

	
 
    	
 
    	
and delivery of joinder documentation by any   new ABL Lender in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the ABL   Administrative Agent, (ii) delivery by legal counsel to the Borrowers of   any legal opinions to the extent reasonably requested by ABL Administrative   Agent, and (iii) payment by the Borrowers of all fees and expenses   incurred in connection with such Commitment Increase (including any customary   breakage costs, as applicable). Outstandings under the ABL Facility shall be   reallocated among the ABL Lenders in accordance with their new percentage   shares following any exercise of the Increase Option.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
PURPOSE:
    	
 
    	
The proceeds of the ABL Facility shall be   used (i) for working capital, capital expenditures, and other lawful   corporate purposes (including but not limited to acquisitions, investments   and restricted payments to the extent permitted under the ABL Credit   Documentation); (ii) to consummate the Refinancing; and (iii) for   transaction costs in connection with the Acquisition.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
INTEREST RATES:
    	
 
    	
As set forth in Addendum I.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
MATURITY:
    	
 
    	
The ABL Facility shall terminate and all   amounts outstanding thereunder shall be due and payable in full five   (5) years after the Closing Date.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
AVAILABILITY:
    	
 
    	
The aggregate principal amount of loans,   including Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under the ABL   Facility, shall not exceed the lesser of the Loan Cap and the Borrowing Base   (as defined below) (the lesser of the Loan Cap and the Borrowing Base, the “Loan Limit”).
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
“Availability”   shall mean, at any given time, an amount equal to the Loan Limit, less the   principal amount of the loans, including Swing Line Loans and Letters of   Credit, outstanding under the ABL Facility.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
“Borrowing Base”   shall mean the sum of (i) 90% of the appraised net orderly liquidation   value of eligible inventory (including eligible in-transit inventory) owned   by the Lead Borrower and the U.S. Guarantors, plus (ii) 85% of   eligible accounts receivable owned by the Lead Borrower and the Guarantors, plus   (iii) 90% of the eligible credit card receivables owned by the Borrower   and the Guarantors, plus (iv) 100% of qualified cash that is   under the sole dominion of the ABL Administrative Agent (and which may not be   withdrawn unless the Borrowers are in pro forma compliance with the Loan   Cap), less (v) such Reserves (to be defined in the ABL Credit   Documentation) as the ABL Administrative Agent may establish in its   Reasonable Credit Judgment from time to time. Additionally, assets of the   Canadian Borrower and the Canadian Guarantors shall, subject to the Loan Cap,   be available as the basis for additional Loans and Letters of Credit to the   Canadian Borrower under the formula set forth above. “Reasonable   Credit Judgment” means a determination made in good faith and   in the exercise of reasonable business judgment from the perspective of an   asset-based lender.
    

 

Annex I-4

 

	
 
    	
 
    	
The initial reserves on the Closing Date and   the definitions of “eligible credit card receivables”, “eligible inventory”   and “eligible in-transit inventory” shall be mutually and reasonably agreed   by the ABL Administrative Agent and the Borrowers based upon the results of   the ABL Administrative Agent’s due diligence, including, without limitation,   a commercial finance examination and an inventory appraisal.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent   the ABL Administrative Agent has not completed a field examination of,    and has not received an inventory appraisal for, the Borrower or any   Guarantor prior to the Closing Date (any such entity an “Affected Entity”),   assets of such Affected Entity that would otherwise be eligible for inclusion   of the Borrowing Base shall not be subject to the advance rates set forth   above until such field examination and appraisal are completed but instead   the Borrowing Base shall be calculated separately for the Borrower and the   Guarantors that are not Affected Entities and then shall be increased by the   an amount equal to the sum of (i) 50% of the book value of inventory of   such Affected Entity so long as the ABL Facility has a first priority   security interest in such inventory, (ii) 70% of the accounts receivable   of such Affected Entity so long as the ABL Facility has a first priority   security interest in such accounts receivable, and (iii) 70% of the face   amount of credit card receivables of such Affected Entity so long as the ABL   Facility has a first priority security interest in such credit card receivables   for up to 60 days less (iv) such Reserves (to be defined in the   ABL Credit Documentation) as the ABL Administrative Agent may establish in   its Reasonable Credit Judgment; provided that   if the field examination and inventory appraisal with the respect to each   Affected Entity have not been completed by the 60th day after the Closing   Date, the Borrowing Base shall thereafter not include any amount in respect   of the assets of such Affected Entity until such field examination and   inventory appraisal are completed.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
OPTIONAL   PREPAYMENTS
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
AND   COMMITMENT
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
REDUCTIONS:
    	
 
    	
The Borrowers may repay the loans under the   ABL Facility at any time and from time to time without premium or penalty   (other than breakage costs (but not loss of margin) with respect to LIBOR loans,   if applicable), in minimum principal amounts and with customary notice   requirements to be mutually agreed upon.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
The Borrowers may reduce the unutilized   portion of the commitments in respect of the ABL Facility at any time and   from time to time, or terminate the ABL Facility, in each case, without   premium or penalty, in minimum principal amounts to be mutually agreed upon   by the Borrowers and the ABL Administrative Agent and subject to customary   notice requirements to be mutually agreed upon.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
MANDATORY
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
PREPAYMENTS:
    	
 
    	
If at any time the sum of the principal   amount of outstanding borrowings and outstanding Letters of Credit under the   ABL Facility exceeds the 
    

 

Annex I-5

 

	
 

 
    	
 
    	
lesser of (i) the Borrowing Base as in   effect at such time and (ii) the Loan Cap, the Borrowers shall prepay   the loans (and cash collateralize Letters of Credit) in an amount necessary   to eliminate such excess.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Upon any sale or other disposition of any   assets of the Borrower or any Guarantor, in each case to the extent   constituting ABL Priority Collateral, outside of the ordinary course of   business or the receipt by the Borrower of any proceeds from casualty   insurance or a condemnation of ABL Priority Collateral (in each case, with   exceptions and materiality levels to be agreed in the ABL Credit   Documentation), above a threshold to be agreed, the Borrowers shall provide   an updated calculation of the Borrowing Base.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
If a Cash Dominion Event (as defined below)   has occurred and is continuing, all amounts deposited in each Collection   Account (as defined below) will be promptly applied by the ABL Administrative   Agent to repay outstanding loans under the ABL Facility and, if an event of   default exists, to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Mandatory prepayments shall not reduce the   commitments of the ABL Lenders under the ABL Facility.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
SECURITY:
    	
 
    	
Subject to the Funds Certain Provisions, the   ABL Facility (including cash management services, interest rate protection,   other hedging arrangements, and other bank products provided to the Lead   Borrower or its Subsidiaries by any of the ABL Lenders or their respective   affiliates) will be secured by: (a) perfected first priority (subject to   permitted liens, including in respect of the Term Facility, and other   customary exceptions) security interests in substantially all tangible and   intangible assets of the Lead Borrower and the U.S. Guarantors consisting of   accounts receivable, inventory, tax refunds, cash, deposit accounts,   securities accounts, investment property (other than (x) capital stock   and (y) any deposit account or securities account (or amount on deposit   therein) established solely to hold identified proceeds of Term Loan Priority   Collateral (as defined below)), general intangibles (other than equity   interests and intellectual property), chattel paper, documents, supporting   obligations, certain other assets and books and records related to the   foregoing and, in each case, proceeds thereof, subject to customary   exceptions (the “ABL Priority Collateral”);   and (b) a second priority (subject to permitted liens, including in   respect of the Term Facility, and other customary exceptions) security   interest in (i) 100% of the capital stock held by the Lead Borrower and   the U.S. Guarantors (but limited in the case of the voting capital stock of   any first-tier CFC or Disregarded Domestic Person, to 65% of such capital   stock), (ii) substantially all material owned real property and   equipment of the Lead Borrower and the U.S. Guarantors and (iii) all   other personal property of the Lead Borrower and the U.S. Guarantors to the   extent not constituting ABL Priority Collateral, including, without   limitation, contracts, patents, copyrights, trademarks, other general intangibles   and all proceeds of the foregoing (in each case, other than those relating to   ABL Priority Collateral) (the property in

ANNEX II

 

SUMMARY OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
 $1,100,000,000 TERM LOAN FACILITIES

 

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the same meanings as specified therefor in the Commitment Letter to which this Annex II is attached.

 

	
Borrower:
    	
 
    	
The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc. a Texas   corporation (the “Borrower”).
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Guarantors:
    	
 
    	
The obligations of the Borrower under the   Term Loan Facilities (as hereinafter defined) will be unconditionally guaranteed   jointly and severally on a senior basis (the “Term   Guarantees”) by Holdings and each of the Borrower’s   wholly-owned material restricted U.S. subsidiaries (and consistent with the   principles set forth herein) (collectively, the “Guarantors”),   provided that Guarantors shall not   include, (i) unrestricted subsidiaries, (ii) immaterial   subsidiaries (to be defined in a mutually acceptable manner as to individual   and aggregate revenues or assets excluded), (iii) any subsidiary that is   prohibited, but only so long as such subsidiary would be prohibited, by   applicable law, rule or regulation or by any contractual obligation   existing on the Closing Date or existing at the time of acquisition thereof   after the Closing Date (so long as such prohibition did not arise as part of   such acquisition), in each case, from guaranteeing the Term Facility or which   would require governmental (including regulatory) consent, approval, license   or authorization to provide an Term Guarantee unless such consent, approval,   license or authorization has been received (but without obligation to seek the   same), (iv) any direct or indirect subsidiary of a “controlled foreign   corporation” within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code (a “CFC”), (v) any domestic   subsidiary with no material assets other than equity interests of one or more   foreign subsidiaries that are CFCs (a “Disregarded Domestic   Person”) and (vi) not-for-profit subsidiaries. In addition, the Term Facility Documentation will contain carve outs   for “non-ECP Guarantors”, consistent with the LSTA provisions. All guarantees   will be guarantees of payment and not of collection. The Target and its   subsidiaries included in the Acquired Business that are not excluded from the   foregoing requirements pursuant to the terms described above shall be   required to become Guarantors (and grant liens in their assets constituting   Collateral that can be perfected by filing UCC financing statements) on the   Closing Date. Notwithstanding the forgoing, it is understood and agreed that   neither the Target nor any of its subsidiaries shall be required to be   Guarantors until the Merger is consummated on the Merger Closing Date.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Notwithstanding   the foregoing, additional subsidiaries may be excluded from the guarantee   requirements in circumstances where the Borrower and the Term Administrative   Agent reasonably agree that the cost of providing such a guarantee is   excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby.

Purpose:
    	
 
    	
The proceeds of the borrowings under the   Term Loan Facilities, together with cash on the balance sheet of the   Companies and borrowings under the ABL Facility, shall be used (i) to finance   the Acquisition and the Refinancing and (ii) to pay fees and expenses   incurred in connection therewith.

Cost and Yield Protection:
    	
 
    	
Subject to the Term Loan Documentation   Standard (as defined below) and customary for transactions and facilities of   this type, including, without limitation, in respect of breakage or   redeployment costs incurred in connection with prepayments (other than loss   of margin), changes in capital adequacy and capital requirements or their   interpretation, illegality, unavailability, reserves without proration or   offset and payments free and clear of withholding or other taxes; provided that for all purposes of the Credit   Documentation, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer   Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives promulgated   thereunder and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives   promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on   Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United   States regulatory authorities, in each case, pursuant to Basel III, shall be   deemed introduced or adopted after the Closing Date, so long as, in each   case, any amounts with respect thereto assessed by any Lender shall also be   so assessed by such Lender against its similarly situated customers generally   under agreements containing comparable gross-up provisions.

Incremental Term
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Facilities:

The Borrower shall   seek commitments in respect of any Incremental Term Facility from existing   Term Loan Lenders or from additional banks, financial institutions and other   institutional lenders reasonably acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent   who will become Term Loan Lenders in connection therewith.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Refinancing Facilities:

In addition to the amortization set forth   above and subject to the Term Loan Documentation Standard and the next   paragraph, mandatory prepayments shall be required (i) subject to   customary exceptions and thresholds, from the receipt of net cash proceeds by   the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries from any disposition of assets   outside the ordinary course of business or casualty event by the Borrower or   any of its subsidiaries, in each case, to the extent such proceeds are not   reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) in assets useful in the business   of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries within twelve months of the date   of such disposition or casualty event (and, in the case of ABL Priority   Collateral, to the extent such amounts are not required to repay the ABL   Facility) and, if so committed to be reinvested, reinvested   no later than 180 days after the end of such twelve month period; (ii) following the receipt of net cash proceeds from the   issuance or incurrence after the Closing Date of additional debt of the   Borrower or any of its subsidiaries (other than debt permitted under the   Credit Documentation other than Refinancing Indebtedness); and (iii) in   an amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow (to be defined in the Credit   Documentation) of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, beginning with the first   full fiscal year commencing after the Closing Date, with step downs to 25%   and 0% based on the Senior Secured Net Leverage Ratios (to be defined to   allow netting of unrestricted cash of up to an amount to be agreed) at levels   to be agreed, of the Borrower (with a dollar-for-dollar credit for optional   prepayments of the Term Loan Facilities subsequent to the first day of the   relevant year), in each case of clauses (i) - (iii), subject to the   limitations set forth in the paragraph immediately following, such amounts   shall be applied in forward order to the prepayment of the next eight   (8) installments of the Term Loan Facilities, and then on a pro rata   basis and to scheduled amortization of the Term Loan Facilities on a pro rata   basis.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
Any Term Loan Lender may elect not to accept   its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment other than a prepayment made   with the proceeds of a Refinancing Debt (each a “Declining   Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender   shall first be offered to prepay Term Loans of Term Loan Lenders who were not   Declining Lenders and, if declined by such Term Loan Lenders, may be retained   by the Borrower (such amount, a “Declined Amount”).
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Optional Prepayments:
    	
 
    	
The Term Loan Facilities may be prepaid at   any time in whole or in part without premium or penalty, upon written notice,   at the option of the Borrower, except (x) that any prepayment of LIBOR   advances other than at the end of the applicable interest periods therefor   shall be made with reimbursement for any funding losses and redeployment   costs (but not loss of margin) of the Term Loan Lenders resulting therefrom   and (y) as set forth in “Soft-Call Premium” below. Each optional   prepayment of the Term Loan Facilities shall be applied as directed by the   Borrower.
    

 

Annex II-6

 

	
Soft-Call Premium:
    	
 
    	
In the event that all or any portion of the   Term Loan Facilities is (i) repaid, prepaid, refinanced or replaced with   term loan indebtedness with a lower effective yield (to be defined) than the   effective yield of such Term Loan Facility or (ii) repriced through any   waiver, consent or amendment that has the effect of reducing the effective   yield of the Term Loan Facilities (a “Repricing Transaction”),   in each case, on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date   and other than in connection with a change of control, such repayment,   prepayment, refinancing, replacement or repricing will be accompanied by a   premium of 1% of the principal amount so repaid, prepaid, refinanced,   replaced or repriced. If all or any portion of the Term Loan Facilities held   by any Term Loan Lender is required to be assigned pursuant to a   “yank-a-bank” provision in the Credit Documentation as a result of, or in   connection with a Repricing Transaction, such Term Loan Lender not agreeing   or otherwise consenting to any waiver, consent or amendment referred to in   clause (ii) above (or otherwise in connection with a Repricing   Transaction), such replacement will be accompanied by a premium equal to 1%   of the principal amount so required to be assigned.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
Security:
    	
 
    	
Subject to the Funds Certain Provisions, the   Borrower and each of the Guarantors shall grant the Term Administrative Agent   (for its benefit and for the benefit of the Term Loan Lenders) (a) a   first-priority (subject to permitted liens and other customary exceptions)   security interest in the Term Loan Priority Collateral (as defined in Annex   I hereto) and (b) a second-priority (subject to permitted liens,   including in respect of the ABL Facility, and other customary exceptions)   security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral (as defined in Annex I   hereto), in each case, excluding the Excluded Assets (as defined in Annex   I hereto) (collectively, the “Collateral”).   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, except to the extent delivered   pursuant to the ABL Facility, no control agreements, landlord lien waivers,   estoppels or collateral access letters will be required.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
All the above-described pledges, security   interests and mortgages shall be created on terms to be set forth in the Term   Facility Documentation and otherwise consistent with the Term Facility   Documentation Principles; and none of the Collateral shall be subject to   other pledges, security interests or mortgages (except in favor of the ABL   Facility and other permitted liens and exceptions and baskets to be set forth   in the Term Facility Documentation).
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
All the above-described pledges, security   interests and mortgages shall be created on terms, and pursuant to   documentation, subject to the Term Loan Documentation Standard and reasonably   satisfactory to the Term Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Assets will   be excluded from the Collateral in circumstances to be agreed and in   circumstances where the Term Administrative Agent reasonably determines in   consultation with the Borrower that the cost of obtaining a security interest   in such assets is excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby, and in   any event such exclusions shall include vehicles, trust, payroll and escrow

accounts, certain leasehold interests   (except as noted above), assets subject to capital leases and purchase money   arrangements, cash which secures permitted letters of credit, assets held in   jurisdictions outside the U.S. (solely to the extent action would be required   in such other jurisdictions to obtain such security interests) and assets   sold in accordance with the Credit Documentation.

During the continuance of a payment or   bankruptcy event of default, interest will accrue on the overdue principal of   the Bridge Loans and on any other overdue amount at a rate of 200 basis   points in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to the Bridge Loans (except   that following the Rollover Date (as defined below), interest on the Bridge   Loans will accrue at a per annum rate equal to 200 basis points in excess of   the Total Cap), and will be payable on demand.
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
 
    
	
 
    	
 
    	
All calculations of interest shall be made   on the basis of actual number of days elapsed in a 360-day year.

Participations:
    	
 
    	
Each Bridge Lender will be permitted to make   assignments in minimum amounts to be agreed to other entities approved by the   Bridge Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably   withheld or delayed; provided, however, that no such approval shall be required in   connection with assignments to other Bridge Lenders or any of their   affiliates or approved funds; provided further   that, prior to the Rollover Date, the consent of the Borrower shall be   required with respect to any assignment if the Initial Bridge Lenders (and   their respective affiliates) would hold, in the aggregate after giving effect   to such assignment, less than 50.1% of the Bridge Loans. Each Bridge Lender   will also have the right, without any consent, to assign as security all or   part of its rights under the Credit Documentation to any Federal Reserve   Bank. Bridge Lenders will be permitted to sell participations with voting   rights limited to significant matters such as changes in amount, rate and   maturity date. An assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 will be charged with   respect to

If any Initial Bridge Lender makes an assignment   of Bridge Loans at a price less than par, the assignment agreement may   provide that, upon any repayment or prepayment of such Bridge Loans with the   proceeds of an issuance of securities of the Borrower or any of its   subsidiaries in which such Initial Bridge Lender or an affiliate thereof   acted as underwriter or initial purchaser (an “Applicable   Offering”), (i) the Borrower shall pay the holder of such   Bridge Loans the price set forth in the assignment agreement as the price   (which may be the price at which such Initial Bridge Lender assigned such   Bridge Loans but in any event may not be greater than par) at which the   holder of such Bridge Loans will be repaid by the Borrower with the proceeds   of an Applicable Offering (the “Agreed Price”)   and (ii) the Borrower shall pay such Initial Bridge Lender the   difference between par and the Agreed Price. Such payments by the Borrower   shall be in full satisfaction of such Bridge Loans in the case of a repayment   or prepayment with proceeds of an Applicable Offering. For the avoidance of   doubt, the provisions of this paragraph do not apply to any repayments or   prepayments other than with proceeds of an Applicable Offering.

(ii)                                  All representations and warranties under the Credit Documentation shall be made on the Closing Date; provided, however, the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the initial availability of the Facilities shall be (A) the Acquisition Agreement Representations (as defined below) and (B) the Specified Representations (as defined below) in all material respects.  “Acquisition Agreement Representations” shall mean such of the representations made by the Target in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that the breach of any such representations results in you or any of your affiliates having the right to terminate your or its obligations under the Acquisition Agreement (after giving effect to any applicable notice and cure period) or results in the failure of a condition precedent to your obligation to consummate the Acquisition pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement.  “Specified Representations” shall mean the representations and warranties in the Credit Documentation relating to:  (i) (A) corporate status of the Borrower and the Guarantors and (B) corporate power and authority to enter into the Credit Documentation by the Borrower and the other Guarantors, (ii) due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of the Credit Documentation by the Borrower and the Guarantors, (iii) no conflicts of the Credit Documentation with (x) charter documents of the Borrower and the Guarantors or (y) material laws, (iv) compliance with Federal Reserve margin regulations, OFAC, FCPA, the U.S.A.

ANNEX V

 

SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE(1)

 

[          ], 201[  ]

 

This SOLVENCY CERTIFICATE (this “Certificate”) is delivered in connection with that certain Credit Agreement dated as of [          ], 201[  ] (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated, replaced, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among The Men’s Wearhouse, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Borrower”), [                        ], as administrative agent and collateral agent, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto as lenders and the other parties thereto.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the same meanings as in the Credit Agreement.

 

In my capacity as a Responsible Officer of Company (as defined below), and not in my individual or personal capacity, I believe that:

 

1.             Company (as used herein “Company” means the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole) is not now, nor will the incurrence of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the Acquisition on the Closing Date, on a pro forma basis, render Company “insolvent” as defined in this paragraph; in this context, “insolvent” means that (i) the fair value of assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay the total liability on existing debts as they become absolute and matured, (ii) the present fair salable value of assets is less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability on existing debts as they become absolute and matured (iii) it is unable to meet its obligations as they generally become due, or (iv) it ceases to pay its current obligations in the ordinary course of business as they generally become due, or (v) its aggregate property is not, at a fair valuation, sufficient, or if disposed of at a fairly conducted sale under legal process, would not be, sufficient to enable payment of all obligations, due and accruing due.  The term “debts” as used in this Certificate includes any legal liability, whether matured or unmatured, liquidated or unliquidated, absolute, fixed or contingent and “values of assets” shall mean the amount of which the assets (both tangible and intangible) in their entirety would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with a commercially reasonable period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under compulsion to act.

 

2.             As of the date hereof, after giving effect to the incurrence of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the other Transactions on the Closing Date, the Company is able to pay its debts as they become absolute and mature.

 

3.             The incurrence of the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the consummation of the other Transactions on the Closing Date, on a pro forma basis, will not leave Company with property remaining in its hands constituting “unreasonably small capital.”  I understand that “unreasonably small capital” depends upon the nature of the particular business or businesses conducted or to be conducted, and I have reached my conclusion based on my current assumptions regarding the needs and anticipated needs

 

(1)                                 Defined terms to be aligned with those in the applicable definitive Credit Agreement, but consistent with this form of solvency certificate.

 

Annex V-1

 

for capital of the businesses conducted or anticipated to be conducted by Company in light of projected financial statements and available credit capacity, which current assumption I do not believe to be unreasonable in light of the circumstances applicable thereto.

 

Annex V-2

 

I represent the foregoing information is provided to the best of my knowledge and belief and execute this Certificate as of the date first above written.
