Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) as to Jasmine, in no event will the amount of Revolving Loans available exceed $7,500,000; provided, that, if Jasmine delivers an opinion of Massachusetts counsel, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, with respect with respect to such matters as Agent may reasonably require, such $7,500,000 sublimit shall no longer be effective, and (b) each of the percentages specified in clauses (a)(i)(A) through (C) of this definition shall be five percent (5%) less than the amounts set forth in such clauses until such time as the Existing Term Loan and all Obligations related thereto are indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full in immediately available funds.

 

For purposes of this definition, the advance rates set forth in subparagraph (a)(i)(C)(2) above will be subject to be decreased, upon Agent providing not less than ten (10) Business Days prior telephonic or electronic notice only to Borrowers, based on the results satisfactory to Agent of appraisals of the Inventory conducted in accordance with Section 7.3 hereof and to be conducted on a “going out of business sale” basis, net of liquidation expenses, at the expense of Borrowers, conducted by appraisers acceptable to Agent. For purposes only of applying the Inventory Loan Limit, Agent may treat the then undrawn amounts of outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations for the purpose of purchasing Eligible Inventory as Revolving Loans to the extent Agent is in effect basing the issuance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations on the Value of the Eligible Inventory being purchased with such Letter of Credit Accommodations. In determining the actual amounts of such Letter of Credit Accommodations to be so treated for purposes of the sublimit, the outstanding Revolving Loans and Reserves shall be attributed first to any components of the lending formulas set forth above that are not subject to such sublimit, before being attributed to the components of the lending formulas subject to such sublimit. The amounts of Eligible Inventory shall be determined based on the lesser of the amount of Inventory set forth in the general ledgers of Borrowers or the perpetual inventory records maintained by Borrowers. Agent shall have the right to establish Reserves against or sublimits in the Borrowing Base in such amounts and with respect to such matters as Agent in its sole discretion shall deem necessary or appropriate, at all times and after Agent has completed its updated field audits, examinations and appraisals of the Collateral; provided, however, that, so long as an Availability Compliance Period does not exist, Agent shall only give to Borrowers ten (10) Business Days’ telephonic or electronic notice if (a) Agent establishes Reserves relating to new categories of Reserves, (b) Agent changes the methodology of calculating Reserves, or (c) Agent establishes sublimits in the Borrowing Base. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event Agent is required to establish Reserves to preserve or protect or maximize the value of the Collateral, Agent shall only provide Borrowers with notice at the time such Reserve is established.

 

1.21         “Borrowers” shall mean, collectively, the following (together with their respective successors and assigns): (a) Lerner, (b) Lernco, and (e) Jasmine; each sometimes being referred to herein individually as “Borrower”.

1.25         “Capital Expenditures” shall mean, with respect to any Person and its Subsidiaries, all expenditures made and liabilities incurred for the acquisition of equipment, software, fixed assets, real property or improvements, or replacements or substitutions therefor, which are not, in accordance with GAAP, treated as expense items for such Person and its Subsidiaries in the year made or incurred or as a prepaid expense applicable to a future year or years.

2.1           Revolving Loans.

 

(a)           Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, each Revolving Loan Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to fund its Pro Rata Share of Revolving Loans to Borrowers from time to time in amounts requested by any Borrower up to the amount outstanding at any time equal to the Borrowing Base.

 

(b)           Agent may, in its discretion, from time to time, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior telephonic or electronic notice only to each Borrower, reduce the lending formula(s) with respect to Eligible Inventory to the extent that Agent determines in good 

 

41

 

faith that:  (i) the number of days of the turnover of the Inventory for any period has adversely changed or (ii) the liquidation value of the Eligible Inventory, or any category thereof, has decreased, including any decrease attributable to a material change in the nature, quality or mix of the Inventory. The amount of any decrease in the lending formulas shall have a reasonable relationship to the event, condition or circumstance which is the basis for such decrease as determined by Agent in good faith. In determining whether to reduce the lending formula(s), Agent may consider events, conditions, contingencies or risks which are also considered in determining Eligible Sell-Off Vendors Receivables, Eligible Damaged Goods Vendors Receivables, Eligible Credit Card Receivables, Eligible Inventory or in establishing Reserves.

 

(c)           Except with the consent of all Lenders, or as otherwise provided in Sections 12.8 and 12.11 hereof, (i) the aggregate amount of the Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Maximum Credit, (ii) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding at any time to Borrowers shall not exceed the Borrowing Base, and (iii) the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans outstanding at any time to Borrowers based on the Eligible Inventory shall not exceed the Inventory Loan Limit.

 

(d)           In the event that the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding to Borrowers exceeds the Borrowing Base, the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations based on the Eligible Inventory exceed the Inventory Loan Limit, or the aggregate amount of the outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations exceed the sublimit for Letter of Credit Accommodations set forth in Section 2.2(e) hereof, such event shall not limit, waive or otherwise affect any rights of Agent or Lenders in such circumstances or on any future occasions and Borrowers shall immediately repay to Agent the entire amount of any such excess(es).

 

(e)           At Borrowers’ option, upon not less than ten (10) Business Days prior written notice to Agent by Borrowers, Borrowers may permanently reduce the Revolving Loan Limit; provided, however, that (i) such reductions may only be requested in increments of $10,000,000; (ii) on and after giving effect to such reduction, no Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing; and (iii) the Revolving Loan Limit may not be reduced to an amount that is less than $60,000,000 unless reduced to zero in connection with the termination of the Agreement or the Revolving Loan Facility in accordance with the provisions of Section 14.1 hereof.

 

2.2           Letter of Credit Accommodations.

 

(a)           Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, at the request of any Borrower, Agent agrees, for the ratable risk of each Revolving Loan Lender according to its Pro Rata Share, to provide or arrange for Letter of Credit Accommodations for the account of Borrowers containing terms and conditions acceptable to Agent and the issuer thereof. Any payments made by or on behalf of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender to any issuer thereof and/or related parties in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations provided to or for the benefit of any Borrower shall constitute additional Revolving Loans to Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2 (or Special Agent Advances as the case may be).

 

42

 

(b)           In addition to any charges, fees or expenses charged by any bank or issuer in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations, Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, a letter of credit fee at a rate equal to five-eighths percent (.625%) per annum on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations in respect of commercial Letter of Credit Accommodations and a letter of credit fee at a rate equal to the Applicable Margin for standby Letter of Credit Accommodations on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations in respect of standby Letter of Credit Accommodations (the “Letter of Credit Fee”), in each case for the immediately preceding month (or part thereof), payable in arrears as of the first day of each succeeding month; provided, that, Agent may, and upon the written direction of the Required Revolving Loan Lenders shall, require Borrowers to pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, such Letter of Credit Fee, at a rate that is (2%) percent per annum greater than the otherwise applicable rate on such daily outstanding balance for: (i) the period from and after the date of termination or non-renewal hereof until Agent and Lenders have received full and final payment of all Obligations (notwithstanding entry of a judgment against any Borrower) and (ii) the period from and after the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default for so long as such Event of Default is continuing as determined by Agent. Such Letter of Credit Fee shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed and the obligation of Borrowers to pay such fee shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

 

(c)           A Borrower shall give Agent one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of such Borrower’s request for the issuance of a commercial Letter of Credit Accommodation and two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice of such Borrower’s request for the issuance of a stand-by Letter of Credit Accommodation. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodation requested, the effective date (which date shall be a Business Day) of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation, whether such Letter of Credit Accommodations may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the date on which such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), the purpose for which such Letter of Credit Accommodation is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit Accommodation. Such Borrower shall attach to such notice the proposed terms of the Letter of Credit Accommodation.

 

(d)           In addition to being subject to the satisfaction of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Section 4 hereof and the other terms and conditions contained herein, no Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be available unless each of the following conditions precedent have been satisfied in a manner satisfactory to Agent:  (i) the applicable Borrower shall have delivered to the proposed issuer of such Letter of Credit Accommodation at such times and in such manner as such proposed issuer may require, an application, in form and substance satisfactory to such proposed issuer and Agent, for the issuance of the Letter of Credit Accommodation and such other documents as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof, and the form and terms of the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation shall be satisfactory to Agent and such proposed issuer, (ii) as of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or other Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain money center banks generally from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit Accommodation, and no law, rule or regulation applicable to money center banks 

 

43

 

generally and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over money center banks generally shall prohibit, or request that the proposed issuer of such Letter of Credit Accommodation refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letters of Credit Accommodation; and (iii) after giving effect to the LC Reserve Amount applicable to such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation, the aggregate amount of the Obligations then outstanding would not exceed the Borrowing Base. Effective on the issuance of each Letter of Credit Accommodation, a Reserve shall be established in an amount equal to the LC Reserve Amount for such Letter of Credit Accommodation.

 

(e)           Except with the consent of all Lenders, the amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by Agent or any Lender in connection therewith shall not at any time exceed $75,000,000.

 

(f)            Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify and hold Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses which Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender may suffer or incur in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations and any documents, drafts or acceptances relating thereto, including any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses due to any action taken by any issuer or correspondent with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, except for such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses that are a direct result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. Each Borrower assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit Accommodation and for such purposes the drawer or beneficiary shall be deemed such Borrower’s agent. Each Borrower assumes all risks for, and agrees to pay, all foreign, Federal, State and local taxes, duties and levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit Accommodations or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases and holds Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions, whether caused by such Borrower or Guarantor, by any issuer or correspondent or otherwise with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, except for the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. The provisions of this Section 2.2(f) shall survive the payment of Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 

(g)           At any time during an Availability Compliance Period, in connection with Inventory purchased pursuant to Letter of Credit Accommodations during such Availability Compliance Period, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, at Agent’s request, instruct all suppliers, carriers, forwarders, customs brokers, warehouses or others receiving or holding cash, checks, Inventory, documents or instruments in which Agent holds a security interest to deliver them to Agent and/or subject to Agent’s order, and if they shall come into such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s possession, to deliver them, upon Agent’s request, to Agent in their original form. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall also, at Agent’s request, designate Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents.

 

44

 

(h)           Each Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation to name such Borrower as the account party therein and to deliver to Agent all instruments, documents and other writings and property received by issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit Accommodations and to accept and rely upon Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations or the applications therefor. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to grant any Borrower any right or authority to pledge the credit of Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender in any manner. Agent and Revolving Loan Lenders shall have no liability of any kind with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation provided by an issuer other than Agent or any Revolving Loan Lender unless Agent has duly executed and delivered to such issuer the application or a guarantee or indemnification in writing with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation. Borrowers shall be bound by any reasonable interpretation made in good faith by Agent, or any other issuer or correspondent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodation or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder, notwithstanding that such interpretation may be inconsistent with any instructions from any Borrower.

 

(i)            At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall have the right and authority to, and no Borrower or Guarantor shall, without the prior written consent of Agent, (i) approve or resolve any questions of non-compliance of documents, (ii) give any instructions as to acceptance or rejection of any documents or goods, (iii) execute any and all applications for steamship or airway guaranties, indemnities or delivery orders, (iv) grant any extensions of the maturity of, time of payments for, or time of presentation of, any drafts, acceptances, or documents, and (v) agree to any amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications, changes or cancellations of any of the terms or conditions of any of the applications, Letter of Credit Accommodations, or documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder or any letters of credit included in the Collateral. Agent may take such actions either in its own name or in any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s name.

 

(j)            At any time, so long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, any Borrower may, with Agent’s consent, (i) grant any extensions of the maturity of, time of payment for, or time of presentation of, any drafts, acceptances, or documents, and (ii) agree to any amendments, renewals, extensions, modifications, changes or cancellations of any of the terms or conditions of any of the applications, Letter of Credit Accommodations, or documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder or any letters of credit included in the Collateral; provided, that, such Borrower may approve or resolve any questions of non-compliance of documents following notice to Agent thereof and without Agent’s consent except as otherwise provided in Section 2.2(i) hereof.

 

(k)           Any rights, remedies, duties or obligations granted or undertaken by any Borrower to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement in favor of any issuer or correspondent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been granted or undertaken by such Borrower to Agent for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders. Any duties or obligations undertaken by Agent to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement by Agent in favor of any issuer or correspondent to the extent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been undertaken 

 

45

 

by such Borrower to Agent for the ratable benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders and to apply in all respects to such Borrower.

 

(l)            Immediately upon the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit Accommodation, each Revolving Loan Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (including, without limitation, all Obligations with respect thereto).

 

(m)          Borrowers and Guarantors are irrevocably and unconditionally, jointly and severally, obligated, without presentment, demand or protest, to pay to Agent any amounts paid by an issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (whether through the borrowing of Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.2(a) hereof or otherwise). In the event that Borrowers and Guarantors fail to pay Agent on the date of any payment under a Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, Agent (to the extent it has actual notice thereof) shall promptly notify each Revolving Loan Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such payment and each Revolving Loan Lender agrees, upon one (1) Business Day’s notice, to fund to Agent the purchase of its participation in such Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the unpaid amount. The obligation of each Revolving Loan Lender to deliver to Agent an amount equal to its respective participation pursuant to the foregoing sentence is absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuance of any Event of Default, the failure to satisfy any other condition set forth in Section 4 hereof or any other event or circumstance. If such amount is not made available by a Revolving Loan Lender when due, Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Revolving Loan Lender with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount was due until the date such amount is paid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Agent’s demand, at the highest Revolving Loan Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Prime Rate Loans.

All other Obligations with respect thereto (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations related thereto which expressly survive the repayment of the Existing Term Loan), shall be due and payable on the earlier of (A) the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date, or (B) the date of termination of this Agreement, whether by its terms, by prepayment, or by acceleration.

 

(c)           The amendment and restatement of the Existing Term Loan as set forth herein, shall not, in any manner, be construed to constitute payment of, or impair, limit, cancel or extinguish, or constitute a novation in respect of, any of the Obligations arising under the Existing Term Loan. The Existing Term Loan shall continue to be repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other Obligations outstanding with respect thereto (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations related thereto which expressly survive the repayment of the Existing Term Loan), in accordance with this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and the Existing Term Loan may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty in accordance with the provisions of Sections 2.3(d) through 2.3(g) hereof, but once repaid may not be reborrowed. The Existing Term Loan shall continue to be secured by all of the Collateral.

 

(d)           Borrowers may, at their option, make a prepayment of all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Existing Term Loan:

 

(i)            so long as: (A) at all times during the thirty (30) day period immediately prior to such payment and after giving effect to such payment, Borrowers have Excess Availability plus Qualified Cash of no less than $40,000,000; (B) Borrowers’ EBITDA for the twelve (12) month period most recently ended is $55,000,000 or more; and (C) both before and after giving effect to such payment, no Default or Event of Default exists or would occur;

 

(ii)           with the net cash proceeds of any issuance or sale of, or capital contribution in respect of, any Capital Stock of NY&Co after the date hereof in each case, to the extent the transaction giving rise to such proceeds is not prohibited under the terms of the Financing Agreements or is otherwise consented to by Agent in writing; or

 

(iii)          with the net cash proceeds of a refinancing of the Existing Term Loan on terms and conditions reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

 

(e)           Within ten (10) days following the receipt by Borrowers of the Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence or issuance by Borrowers of any Indebtedness for borrowed 

 

47

 

money described in clause (a) of the definition of Indebtedness on or after the date hereof (which shall exclude for purposes of this Section 2.3(e) the Indebtedness permitted under Sections 9.9(e), (f), (g), (h) and (i) hereof), Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally and without notice or demand, prepay the then outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loan in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the amount by which such Net Cash Proceeds exceed $20,000,000; provided, that, in the event that all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds from the incurrence or issuance of such Indebtedness is used by Borrowers to build a distribution center, such prepayment shall be in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the amount by which such Net Cash Proceeds exceed the sum of (x) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds used by Borrowers to build such distribution center (up to $45,000,000), and (y) $20,000,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, immediately upon the receipt by Borrowers of the Net Cash Proceeds from the New Term Loan, Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally and without notice or demand, prepay in full the then outstanding balance of the Existing Term Loan and all Obligations related thereto.

 

(f)            Within ten (10) days following the receipt by Borrowers of the Net Cash Proceeds from the sale by Borrowers of any assets or properties of Borrowers (other than as permitted in Section 9.7(b) hereof) on or after the date hereof, Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally and without notice or demand, prepay the then outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loan in an amount equal to fifty (50%) percent of the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds; provided, that, (i) in the event of a sale of the trademarks listed on Schedule 2.3(f) hereto, such prepayment shall be in an amount equal to such percentage of the Net Cash Proceeds in excess of $5,000,000; and (ii) so long as no Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on the date any Borrower receives Net Cash Proceeds from the sale of any Equipment or Real Property of such Borrower, such Net Cash Proceeds may, at the option of such Borrower, be applied to acquire replacement property or assets of a like kind to the property or assets so disposed, provided, that (A) Agent shall have a first priority, valid and perfected security interest in such replacement property or assets, and (B) such Borrower shall deliver to Agent a certificate within ten (10) days after the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds stating that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be used to acquire such replacement property or assets of a like kind to the property or assets so disposed within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds (which certificate shall set forth an estimate of the Net Cash Proceeds to be so expended), (C) if all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds are not so used within such one hundred eighty (180) day period, such unused Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied to prepay the Existing Term Loan and the Obligations related thereto in accordance with Section 2.3(i) hereof, and (D) pending such reinvestment, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied as a prepayment of Revolving Loans.

 

(g)           In the event that at any time (i) the sum of Excess Availability plus  Qualified Cash  of Borrowers is at any time less than $50,000,000, and (ii) EBITDA of Borrowers when calculated for the twelve (12) consecutive fiscal month period most recently ended for which Agent has received financial statements of Borrowers as provided by Section 9.6(a) hereof is less than $65,000,000, within ten (10) days thereafter, Borrowers shall, absolutely and unconditionally without notice or demand, prepay the then outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loan in an amount such that, after giving effect thereto, the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loan shall be equal to $25,000,000; provided, that,

 

48

 

(A)          in the event that as of any date that such mandatory prepayment is due as set forth above, the conditions to optional prepayments by Borrowers in respect of the Existing Term Loan set forth in Section 2.3(d)(i) hereof would not be satisfied after giving effect to such mandatory prepayment, then payments in respect of such mandatory prepayment shall instead be due and payable on each date thereafter that all or any portion of such mandatory prepayment otherwise due on the date set forth above may be made to the extent that after giving effect thereto the conditions to optional prepayments in Section 2.3(d)(i) hereof would be satisfied, and Borrowers shall make such payments in respect of such mandatory prepayment until the aggregate amount of all of such payments equals the amount required to have been paid as of the original due date for such mandatory prepayment;

 

(B)           in the event that Borrowers are not required to make a mandatory prepayment under this Section 2.3(g) on the due date as set forth above, then on and after such due date, the amount of the minimum Excess Availability that Borrowers are required to maintain under Section 9.17 hereof shall be increased by the amount of the mandatory prepayment that would have otherwise been paid under this Section 2.3(g) on the such due date, provided, that, (1) the amount of the minimum Excess Availability required to be maintained under Section 9.17 hereof shall thereafter be reduced to the extent of payments received by Agent in respect of such mandatory prepayment as provided in clause (A) above, and (2) in no event shall the amount of the minimum Excess Availability that Borrowers are required to maintain under Section 9.17 hereof be reduced to less than $7,500,000.

 

(h)           Each such prepayment required pursuant to clauses (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.3 shall be accompanied by a certificate signed by each Borrower’s chief financial officer certifying the manner in which the Net Cash Proceeds from the transactions described in subsections (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.3 and the resulting prepayment were calculated.

 

(i)            Each prepayment of principal under this Section 2.3(d) through (g) hereof shall be made together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the date of such prepayment. Each prepayment set forth in this Section 2.3 shall be applied against the remaining installments (if any) of principal due on the Existing Term Loan in the inverse order of maturity. To the extent that the Existing Term Loan has been repaid in full, Agent shall apply such amounts to the Obligations, whether or not then due, in such order or manner as Agent shall determine, or at Agent’s option, to be held as cash collateral for the Obligations. Nothing contained in this Section 2.3 shall be construed to constitute a consent, implied or otherwise, to any such issuance, incurrence or sale otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

2.4           Commitments.  The aggregate amount of each Revolving Loan Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations shall not exceed the amount of such Revolving Loan Lender’s Revolving Commitment, as the same may from time to time be amended in accordance with the provisions hereof. The aggregate amount of the Existing Term Loan shall not exceed the amount of the Existing Term Loan Commitment, as the same may from time to time be amended, with the written acknowledgment of Agent.

 

2.5           Bank Products. Any Borrower or Guarantor may (but no such Person is 

 

49

 

required to) request that the Agent provide or arrange for such Person to obtain Bank Products from Agent or its Affiliates, and Agent may, in its sole discretion, provide or arrange for such Person to obtain the requested Bank Products. Any Borrower or Guarantor that obtains Bank Products shall indemnify and hold Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates harmless from any and all obligations now or hereafter owing to any other Person by Agent or its Affiliates in connection with any Bank Products. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that the obtaining of Bank Products from the Agent and its Affiliates (a) is in the sole discretion of the Agent or such Affiliate, as the case may be, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of the Person that provides the Bank Product.

 

3.                                       INTEREST AND FEES

 

3.1           Interest.

 

(a)           Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the ratable benefit of the (i) Revolving Loan Lenders, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans at the Revolving Loan Interest Rate and (ii) Existing Term Loan Lender, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Existing Term Loan at the Existing Term Loan Interest Rate. All interest accruing hereunder on and after the date of any Event of Default or termination hereof shall be payable on demand.

 

(b)           Any Borrower may from time to time request that Revolving Loans be made as Eurodollar Rate Loans or may request that Revolving Loans which are Prime Rate Loans be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or that any existing Revolving Loans which are Eurodollar Rate Loans continue for an additional Interest Period. Such request from a Borrower shall specify the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loans or the amount of such Prime Rate Loans to be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or the amount of such Eurodollar Rate Loans to be continued (subject to the limits set forth below) and the Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, two (2) Business Days after receipt by Agent of such a request from such Borrower, such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or such Prime Rate Loans shall be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall continue, as the case may be, provided, that, (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, (ii) no party hereto shall have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement, (iii) such Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as are established by Agent and specified by Agent to Borrowers for Eurodollar Rate Loans, (iv) exclusive of the Existing Term Loan, no more than six (6) Interest Periods may be in effect at any one time, (v) exclusive of the Existing Term Loan, the aggregate amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans must be in an amount not less than $3,000,000 or an integral multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof, and (vi) Agent and each Revolving Loan Lender shall have determined that the Interest Period or Adjusted Eurodollar Rate is available to Agent and such Revolving Loan Lender and can be readily determined as of the date of the request for such Eurodollar Rate Loan by such Borrower. Any request by or on behalf of any Borrower for Revolving Loans that are to be Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Revolving Loans that are Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue any existing Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Agent and Lenders shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable Eurodollar Rate 

 

50

 

market to fund any Eurodollar Rate Loans, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Agent and Lenders had purchased such deposits to fund the Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

(c)           Any Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans shall automatically convert to Prime Rate Loans upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period, unless Agent has received and approved a request to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan at least two (2) Business Days prior to such last day in accordance with the terms hereof. Any Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans shall, at Agent’s option, upon notice by Agent to Borrowers, be subsequently converted to Prime Rate Loans in the event that this Agreement or the Revolving Credit Facility shall terminate or not be renewed. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of Revolving Loan Lenders, upon demand by Agent (or Agent may, at its option, charge any loan account of Borrowers) any amounts required to compensate any Revolving Loan Lender or Participant for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by such person, as a result of the conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Prime Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing.

 

(d)           Interest shall be payable by Borrowers to Agent, for the account of Lenders, monthly in arrears not later than the first day of each calendar month and shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. The interest rate on non-contingent Obligations (other than Eurodollar Rate Loans) shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Prime Rate effective on the first day of the month after any change in such Prime Rate is announced based on the Prime Rate in effect on the last day of the month in which any such change occurs. In no event shall charges constituting interest payable by Borrowers to Agent and Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation, and if any such part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto.

 

3.2           Fees.

 

(a)           Unused Line Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for the Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Loan Lender, monthly an unused line fee at a rate equal to one-fifth percent (0.20%) per annum in aggregate of the difference between (i) the average daily principal balance of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof) while this Agreement is in effect and for so long thereafter as any of the Obligations are outstanding and (ii) the lesser of: (A) $80,000,000, or (B) the Revolving Loan Limit (the “Unused Line Fee”), which fee shall be payable on the first day of each month in arrears

 

(b)           Servicing Fee. Borrowers shall pay to Agent, for its own account, a servicing fee in the amount of $7,500 per month, which fee will be charged and fully earned when due, payable monthly, on the first day of each month, in advance, and non-refundable when paid; provided, however, that upon the occurrence and during an Availability Compliance Period, such servicing fee shall be increased to $10,000.

 

51

 

3.3           Changes in Laws and Increased Costs of Loans.

 

(a)           If after the date hereof, either (i) any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including, without limitation, with respect to reserve requirements, applicable to any Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit (a “Funding Bank”), or (ii) a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any future guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (iii) a Funding Bank or any Lender determines that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Funding Bank’s or such Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to any Lender of funding or maintaining the Loans or its Total Commitment (other than any increased cost resulting from (1) Taxes (as to which Section 6.4(d) hereof and the limitations thereto shall govern) or (2) changes in the basis of taxation of overall net income by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Agent or such Lender is organized or in which the Agent’s or such Lender’s lending office is located or any political subdivision thereof), then Borrowers shall from time to time upon demand by Agent pay to Agent additional amounts sufficient to indemnify Lenders against such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be submitted to Borrowers by Agent and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

 

(b)           If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (i) Agent or the Required Lenders shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, (ii) Agent has received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Eurodollar Rate Loans during such Interest Period, or (iii) Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Eurodollar Rate Loans to which such Interest Period is to be applicable are not generally available in the London interbank market, Agent shall give notice thereof to Borrowers either by telephone or in writing sent by telecopy and Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter, and will also give prompt written notice to Borrowers when such conditions no longer exist. If such notice is given (A) any Eurodollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Prime Rate Loans, (B) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted to or continued as Prime Rate Loans and (C) each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period thereof, to Prime Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by Agent, no further Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall Borrowers have the right to convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

 

52

 

(c)           Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, rule or regulation or final, non-appealable determination of an arbitrator or a court or other Governmental Authority or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the date hereof shall make it unlawful for Agent or any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) Agent or such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to Borrowers and Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (ii) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, continue Eurodollar Rate Loans as such and convert Prime Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a Prime Rate Loan when a Eurodollar Rate Loan is requested and (iii) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Prime Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrowers shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.3(d) below.

 

(d)           Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify Agent and each Lender and hold Agent and each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Agent or such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by any Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or extension of Eurodollar Rate Loans after any Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (ii) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan after any Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and (iii) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. With respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or extended, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or extend to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or extend, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurodollar Rate Loans provided for herein over (B) the amount of interest (as determined by Agent or such Lender) which would have accrued to Agent or such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. This covenant shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

5.1           Grant of Security Interest.  To secure payment and performance of all Obligations, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby grants to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, a continuing security interest in, a lien upon, and a right of set off against, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, as security, and hereby confirms, reaffirms and restates the prior grant thereof to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers pursuant to the Existing Loan Agreement, all personal property and fixtures, and interests in personal property and fixtures, of such Borrower or Guarantor, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or existing, and wherever located (together with all other collateral security for the Obligations at any time granted to or held or acquired by Agent or any Lender, collectively, the “Collateral”) including, without limitation, the following:

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Collateral include, and no Borrower or Guarantor shall be deemed to have granted a security interest in, (i) any personal and real property, fixtures and interests of such Borrower or Guarantor which are not assignable or are incapable of being encumbered as a matter of law, except for the products and proceeds thereof, (ii) such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s rights or interests in any license, contract or agreement to which such Borrower or Guarantor is a party or any of its rights or interests thereunder to the extent, but only to the extent, that such a grant would, under the terms of such license, contract or agreement, applicable laws or otherwise, result in a breach of the terms of, or constitute a default under any license, contract or agreement to which such Borrower or Guarantor is a party (except for the products and proceeds thereof); provided, however, upon the

5.2           Perfection of Security Interests.

 

(a)           Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Agent (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, as Agent may require, and including any other information with respect to such Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of such jurisdiction as Agent may determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on, prior to or after the date hereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, as debtor with respect to the Collateral (and any amendments with respect to such financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Agent prior to the date hereof and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Agent to file such financing statements (and amendments, if any). Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Agent to adopt on behalf of such Borrower or Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Agent or its designee as the secured party and any Borrower or Guarantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral. In no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, without the prior written consent of Agent.

 

(b)           No Borrower or Guarantor has any chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic) or instruments as of the date hereof, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(b) hereto. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any chattel paper or instrument after the date hereof, which together with all other chattel paper and instruments that Borrowers and Guarantors have become entitled to or have received after the date hereof has a fair market value in excess of $100,000 individually or in the aggregate, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon the receipt thereof by

or on behalf of such Borrower or Guarantor (including by any agent or representative), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, all tangible chattel paper and instruments that such Borrower or Guarantor has or may at any time acquire, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent may from time to time specify, in each case except as Agent may otherwise agree.

(c)           In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record” (as such term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), which together with all other electronic chattel paper or “transferable record” that Borrowers and Guarantors have become entitled to has a fair market value in excess of $100,000 individually or in the aggregate, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall take, or cause to be taken, such actions as Agent may request to give Agent control of such electronic chattel paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC and control of such transferable record under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in such jurisdiction.

The terms of this subsection (d) shall not apply to deposit accounts specifically and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s salaried employees. Agent shall not exercise its right to require

 

58

 

amounts in such accounts to be sent to the Agent Payment Account except as provided by Section 6.3 hereof.

 

(e)           No Borrower or Guarantor owns or holds, directly or indirectly, beneficially or as record owner or both, any investment property, as of the date hereof, or has any investment account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account with any bank or other financial institution or other securities intermediary or commodity intermediary as of the date hereof, in each case except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(e) hereto.

 

(i)            In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall at any time after the date hereof hold or acquire any certificated securities, which together with all other certificated securities in which Borrowers and Guarantors hold or acquire an interest after the date hereof have a fair market value in excess of $100,000 individually or in the aggregate, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities, now or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, and such securities together with all other such securities acquired by Borrowers and Guarantors have a fair market value in excess of $100,000 individually or in the aggregate, such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately notify Agent thereof and shall as Agent may specify, either (A) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from Agent as to such securities, without further consent of such Borrower or Guarantor or such nominee, or (B) arrange for Agent to become the registered owner of the securities.

 

(f)            No Borrower or Guarantor shall, directly or indirectly, after the date hereof open, establish or maintain any investment account, securities account, commodity account or any other similar account (other than a deposit account) with any securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (A) Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity reasonably acceptable to Agent the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such intermediary with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (B) the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary (as the case may be) where such account is opened or maintained shall be reasonably acceptable to Agent, and (C) on or before the opening of such investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower or Guarantor shall as Agent may specify either (1) execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered to Agent, an Investment Property Control Agreement with respect thereto duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and such securities intermediary or commodity intermediary or (2) arrange for Agent to become the entitlement holder with respect to such investment property on terms and conditions acceptable to Agent.

59

 

(g)           No Borrower or Guarantor is the beneficiary or otherwise entitled to any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument as of the date hereof, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(f) hereto. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or any similar instrument, whether as beneficiary thereof or otherwise after the date hereof, which together with all other letters of credit, banker’s acceptances and similar instruments that Borrowers and Guarantors have become entitled to or have received after the date hereof have a fair market value in excess of $100,000 individually or in the aggregate, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately, as Agent may specify, either (i) deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, with respect to any such letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument, the written agreement of the issuer and any other nominated person obligated to make any payment in respect thereof (including any confirming or negotiating bank), in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, consenting to the assignment of the proceeds of the letter of credit to Agent by such Borrower or Guarantor and agreeing to make all payments thereon directly to Agent or as Agent may otherwise direct or (ii) cause Agent to become, at Borrowers’ expense, the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument (as the case may be).

 

(h)           No Borrower or Guarantor has any commercial tort claims with respect to which the amount claimed exceeds $1,000,000 and either a written demand therefor has been made or legal action has commenced, except as set forth on Schedule 5.2(g) hereto. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time after the date hereof have any such commercial tort claims, or if an Event of Default exists, if any Borrower or Guarantor has any commercial tort claims, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing, which notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and nature of such commercial tort claim and (ii) include the express grant by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent of a security interest in such commercial tort claim (and the proceeds thereof). In the event that such notice does not include such grant of a security interest, the sending thereof by such Borrower or Guarantor to Agent shall be deemed to constitute such grant to Agent. Upon the sending of such notice, any commercial tort claim described therein shall constitute part of the Collateral and shall be deemed included therein. Without limiting the authorization of Agent provided in Section 5.2(a) hereof or otherwise arising by the execution by such Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized from time to time and at any time to file such financing statements naming Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, or any amendments to any financing statements, covering any such commercial tort claim as Collateral. In addition, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly upon Agent’s request, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Agent such other agreements, documents and instruments as Agent may require in connection with such commercial tort claim.

 

(i)            No Borrower or Guarantor has any goods, documents of title or other Collateral in the custody, control or possession of a third party as of the date hereof, except as set forth in such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Information Certificate and except for goods located in the United States in transit to a location of a Borrower or Guarantor permitted herein in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of any carrier transporting such goods. In the event that any goods, documents of title or other Collateral with 

 

60

 

a fair market value in excess of $100,000 are at any time after the date hereof in the custody, control or possession of any other person not referred to in a Borrower’s or Guarantor’s Information Certificate or such carriers, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Agent a Collateral Access Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by such person and such Borrower or Guarantor.

 

(j)            Each Borrower and Guarantor shall take any other actions reasonably requested by Agent from time to time to cause the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in any and all of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the UCC or other applicable law, to the extent, if any, that such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s signature thereon is required therefor, (ii) upon Agent’s request after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, causing Agent’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iii) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Agent to enforce, the security interest of Agent in such Collateral, (iv) obtaining the consents and approvals required by any Governmental Authority or third party, including, without limitation, any consent of any licensor, lessor or other Person obligated on Collateral, and taking all actions required by other law, as applicable in any relevant jurisdiction.

 

6.             COLLECTION AND ADMINISTRATION

 

6.1           Borrowers’ Loan Accounts.  Agent shall maintain one or more Loan accounts on its books in which shall be recorded (a) the Existing Term Loan, all Revolving Loans, all Letter of Credit Accommodations, all other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of Borrowers and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including fees, charges, costs, expenses and interest. All entries in the loan accounts shall be made in accordance with Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time.

 

6.2           Statements.  Agent shall render to Borrowers a monthly statement setting forth the balance in the Borrowers’ loan accounts maintained by Agent for Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses as of the end of such month. Agent shall use its best efforts to provide such monthly statement to Borrowers by the 15th day of the next succeeding month. Each such statement shall be subject to subsequent adjustment by Agent but shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and deemed accepted by Borrowers and conclusively binding upon Borrowers as an account stated except to the extent that Agent receives a written notice from Borrowers of any specific exceptions of Borrowers thereto within sixty (60) days after the date such statement has been received by Borrowers. Until such time as Agent shall have rendered to Borrowers a written statement as provided above, the balance in Borrowers’ loan accounts shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Agent and Lenders by Borrowers.

 

61

 

6.3           Collection of Accounts.

 

(a)           Borrowers and Guarantors shall establish and maintain, at their expense, blocked accounts or lockboxes and related blocked accounts (in either case, “Blocked Accounts”), as Agent may specify, with such banks as are reasonably acceptable to Agent. Such Blocked Accounts may be Central Collection Deposit Accounts, and the term Blocked Accounts shall include the Central Collection Deposit Accounts. Borrowers and Guarantors shall retain the use of their cash, including payments and proceeds of Collateral, so long as an Availability Compliance Period does not exist; provided, that, during an Availability Compliance Period, and upon Agent’s request, each Borrower and Guarantor shall promptly deposit into one or more Blocked Accounts, and direct its account debtors to directly remit into such Blocked Accounts all payments on Receivables, other than the Non-Borrower Receivables, and all payments constituting proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral in the identical form in which such payments are made, whether by cash, check or other manner. Concurrently with this Agreement, each Borrower and Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Agent, a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account is maintained which agreement shall provide that upon notice from Agent (which shall be given upon an Availability Compliance Triggering Event and shall be revoked promptly after the expiration of the Availability Compliance Period that was initiated upon such Availability Compliance Triggering Event), such bank will send funds on a daily basis to the Agent Payment Account and otherwise take instruction with respect to such Blocked Account only from Agent. Promptly upon Agent’s request, each Borrower and Guarantor shall execute and deliver such agreements or documents as Agent may require in connection therewith. Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that after notice by Agent to the bank under the Deposit Account Control Agreement, all payments made to such Blocked Accounts or other funds received and collected by Agent, whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, to the extent of the then outstanding Obligations; provided, however, that in the event any Non-Borrower Receivable is deposited into the Blocked Accounts, in error or otherwise, such deposit shall be treated as a non-refundable payment to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, to the extent of the then outstanding Obligations.

 

(b)           For purposes of calculating the amount of the Revolving Loans available to Borrowers, such payments will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by Agent of immediately available funds in the Agent Payment Account provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and prior to 12:00 p.m. New York time, and if not, then on the next Business Day. For the purposes of calculating interest on the Obligations, for the sole and equal benefit of Wachovia and Documentation Agent, such payments or other funds received will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the same day of the receipt of immediately available funds by Agent in the Agent Payment Account provided such payments or other funds and notice thereof are prior to 12:00 p.m. New York time, and if not, then on the next Business Day.

 

62

 

(c)           During any Availability Compliance Period, each Borrower and Obligor and its shareholders, directors, employees, agents, Subsidiaries or other Affiliates shall, acting as trustee for Agent, receive, as the property of Agent, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and promptly, upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Agent. In no event shall the same be commingled with any Borrower’s or Obligor’s funds. Borrowers and Guarantors agree to reimburse Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank at which a Blocked Account or any other deposit account is established or any other bank or Person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank or Person. The obligation of Borrowers and Guarantors to reimburse Agent for such amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3(c) shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

 

6.4           Payments.

 

(a)           Borrowers shall pay all Obligations when due. Payments on Obligations shall be made by Borrowers remitting funds to the Agent Payment Account or, at any time during an Availability Compliance Period, by payments and proceeds of Collateral being directly remitted to the Agent Payment Account as provided in Section 6.3 hereof or such other place as Agent may designate from time to time. Agent shall apply payments received or collected from Borrowers or Obligors or for the account of Borrowers or Obligors (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) to the specific Obligation designated by Borrowers in connection with such payment as follows:

 

(i)            so long as no Priority Event shall have occurred and be continuing, or will result from any of the following payment applications:

 

(A)          first, to pay in full all indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Agent from Borrowers and Guarantors (other than fees);

 

(B)           second, ratably to pay in full indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lenders from Borrowers and Guarantors (other than fees);

 

(C)           third, ratably to pay in full all fees payable by Borrowers under the Financing Agreements then due;

 

(D)          fourth, ratably to pay in full interest due in respect of the Loans;

 

(E)           fifth, to pay or prepay principal in respect of Special Agent Advances;

 

(F)           sixth, to pay principal amounts permitted to be paid under the terms of Sections 2.3(c) through (g) hereof, if any, in respect of the Existing Term Loan;

 

(G)           seventh, to pay principal in respect of the Revolving 

 

63

 

Loans then outstanding (whether or not then due) until paid in full;

 

(H)          eighth, to cash collateralize any outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations if required under the terms of this Agreement;

 

(I)            ninth, to pay any Obligations due in respect of the Bank Products, if any; and

 

(J)            tenth, to pay any other Obligations then due, in such order and manner as Agent determines; or

 

(ii)           after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Priority Event:

 

(A)          first, to pay in full the expenses of Agent for the collection and enforcement of the Obligations and for the protection, preservation or sale, disposition or other realization upon the Collateral, including all expenses, liabilities and advances (including Special Agent Advances) incurred or made by or on behalf of Agent, in connection therewith (including attorneys’ fees and legal expenses and other expenses of Agent);

 

(B)           second, to pay all Obligations, other than (1) the Existing Term Loan and any Obligations related to the Existing Term Loan, and (2) any Obligations due with respect to Bank Products, until paid in full, in cash or other immediately available funds, in such order and manner as Agent shall elect in its discretion (including cash collateral for any outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement);

 

(C)           third, to pay any Obligations due with respect to the Bank Products up to the amount of the then extant Bank Product Reserve,

 

(D)          fourth, to pay the Existing Term Loan and any Obligations related to the Existing Term Loan until paid in full;

 

(E)           fifth, to pay any remaining Obligations due in respect of the Bank Products; and

 

(F)           sixth, ratably to pay in full all other Obligations.

 

(b)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement:

 

(i)            if the payment of any expenses, costs, scheduled servicing fees (such servicing fees to consist of scheduled servicing fees existing on the date hereof along with any increases to such servicing fees which have been consented to by Wachovia) and/or interest (other than default interest charged during the existence of an Event of Default) to Agent for the account of itself and Revolving Loans would accrue and become due but for the occurrence of an Insolvency Event and any such amounts are not allowed or allowable in whole or in part (any such amounts are hereinafter referred to as the “Specified Amounts”), then Agent 

 

64

 

and Revolving Loans shall receive payment in full of the Specified Amounts (but not the items excluded from Specified Amounts above) before any payment of the Existing Term Loan or any Obligations related to the Existing Term Loan; provided, that nothing herein shall prevent Agent or the Revolving Loans from recovering any default interest charged during the existence of an Event of Default from any Borrower or Guarantor not subject to an Insolvency Event, which amounts shall be payable to Agent and Revolving Loans before any payment of the Existing Term Loan or any Obligations related to the Existing Term Loan;

 

(ii)           should any payment or distribution on security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by a Lender other than in accordance with this Section 6.4, such Lender shall receive and hold the same in trust, for the benefit of Agent, the other Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, and shall forthwith deliver the same to Agent (together with any endorsement or assignment of such Lender where necessary), for application by Agent to the Obligations in accordance with the terms of this Section 6.4;

 

(iii)          unless so directed by Borrowers, Agent shall not apply any payments which it receives to any Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans except on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar Rate Loans and if payments are received or collected from Borrowers that otherwise would be applied to Eurodollar Rate Loans, provided no Availability Compliance Period exists, Borrowers may instruct Agent to remit such funds to Borrowers, otherwise, such payments shall be held by Agent and shall bear interest at the Federal Funds Rate per annum commencing on the second Business Day following the date such payments are received or collected from Borrowers and continuing through the date such payments are applied to the Obligations, which shall be upon the expiration of the first Interest Period after receipt or collection of such payments, to the extent of the principal amount of the applicable Eurodollar Rate Loan or otherwise, in Agent’s sole discretion, remitted to Borrowers; and

 

(iv)          to the extent any Borrower uses any proceeds of the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral or to repay any Indebtedness used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral, payments in respect of the obligations shall be deemed applied first to the Obligations arising from Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations that were not used for such purposes and second to the Obligations arising from Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations the proceeds of which were used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral in the chronological order in which such Borrower acquired such rights or use.

 

(c)           At Agent’s option, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and other charges provided for in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements may be charged directly to the loan accounts of Borrowers maintained by Agent. Borrowers shall make all payments to Agent and Lenders on the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, Agent or any Lender is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Agent or such Lender. 

 

65

 

Borrowers shall be liable to pay to Agent and Lenders, and do hereby indemnify and hold Agent and Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section 6.4(c) shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 6.4(c) shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

 

(d)           Except as required by law, Borrowers shall make all payments hereunder free and clear of and without deduction for or withholding of any taxes, levies, imposts, deductions or charges and penalties, interest and all other liabilities with respect thereto imposed by the United States or any political subdivision thereof (collectively, “Taxes”), excluding (1) Taxes imposed on or measured by the Agent’s or any Lender’s net income or capital and franchise taxes imposed on the Agent or any Lender by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the Agent or such Lender is organized or in which the Agent’s or such Lender’s lending office is located or any political subdivision thereof and (2) Taxes that are in effect and would apply at the time such Lender becomes a Lender (all such nonexcluded Taxes being hereinafter referred to as “Covered Taxes”). If the Borrowers shall be required by law to deduct or withhold any Covered Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to the Agent or any Lender, then the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required withholdings and deductions of Covered Taxes (including deductions and withholdings of Covered Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this paragraph), the Agent or such Lender receives an amount equal to the sum the Agent or such Lender would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. The Borrowers shall make such deductions or withholdings and the Borrowers shall pay the full amount so deducted or withheld to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. The Agent and each Lender shall provide any documentation prescribed by applicable law, properly completed and executed, as will permit payments to be made by the Borrowers hereunder without the imposition of Covered Taxes. If the Agent or any Lender receives a refund or credit in respect of Covered Taxes, then the Agent or such Lender will pay over the amount of such refund or credit to Borrowers to the extent that the Agent or such Lender has received indemnity payments or additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6.4(d), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in obtaining such refund or credit and without interest (other than interest paid by the relevant taxing authority with respect to such refund or credit).

 

6.5           Authorization to Make Loans.  Agent and Lenders are authorized to make the Loans and provide the Letter of Credit Accommodations based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone purporting to be an officer of a Borrower or other authorized person or, at the discretion of Agent, if such Loans are necessary to satisfy any Obligations; provided, however, that Agent and Lenders shall direct the Loans only into those accounts of a Borrower authorized in writing by more than one Authorized Officer. The foregoing sentence notwithstanding, if Agent or a Lender makes a Loan into an account of a Borrower designated by a Person who no longer is an Authorized Officer and Agent did not receive notice that such Person is no longer an Authorized Officer, such Loan will still be considered an Obligation hereunder. All requests for Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder shall specify the date on which the requested advance is to be made or Letter of Credit Accommodations established (which day shall be a Business Day for any Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation and must be the date hereof with respect to the Existing Term Loan) and the 

 

66

 

amount of the requested Loan. Requests received after 12:00 p.m. New York time on any day shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Loans under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, Borrowers or when deposited to the credit of any Borrower or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of Borrowers or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

 

6.6           Use of Proceeds.  Borrowers shall use the proceeds of the Loans provided by or on behalf of Lenders to Borrowers hereunder only for (a) costs, expenses and fees in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and consummation of any other permitted transactions contemplated hereby which will take place on the date hereof, (b) the repurchase of shares of Capital Stock to the extent permitted by the terms and condition of this Agreement, and (c) for general operating, working capital and other proper corporate purposes of Borrowers not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof. None of the proceeds of any Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any margin security or for the purposes of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin security or for any other purpose which might cause any of the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended.

 

6.7           Pro Rata Treatment.  Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement:  (a) the making and conversion of Loans shall be made among the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares as to the Loans and (b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among the Lenders entitled to such payments based on their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall be distributed accordingly.

 

6.8           Sharing of Payments, Etc.

 

(a)           Each Borrower agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim Agent or any Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (but subject, as among Agent and Lenders, to the provisions of Section 12.3(b) hereof), to offset balances held by it for the account of any Borrower at any of its offices, in dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any Loans owed to such Lender or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to any Borrower), in which case it shall promptly notify Borrowers and Agent thereof; provided, that, such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

 

(b)           If any Lender (including Agent) shall obtain from any Borrower payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received more than its Pro Rata Share of the principal of the Loans or more than its share of such other amounts then 

 

67

 

due hereunder or thereunder by Borrowers to such Lender than the percentage thereof received by any other Lender, it shall promptly pay to Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, the amount of such excess and simultaneously purchase from such other Lenders a participation in the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or such interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment) in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or as otherwise agreed by Lenders. To such end all Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participation sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

 

(c)           Each Borrower agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation (or direct interest) as provided in this Section may exercise, in a manner consistent with this Section, all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.

 

(d)           Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaims or similar rights or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Borrower. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, assign such rights to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers, and, in any event, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

 

6.9           Settlement Procedures.

 

(a)           In order to administer the Credit Facility in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between Agent and Lenders, Agent may, at its option, subject to the terms of this Section, make available, on behalf of Lenders, the full amount of the Loans requested or charged to Borrowers’ loan accounts or otherwise to be advanced by Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, without requirement of prior notice to Lenders of the proposed Loans.

 

(b)           With respect to all Loans made by Agent on behalf of Lenders as provided in this Section, the amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans shall be computed weekly, and shall be adjusted upward or downward on the basis of the amount of the outstanding Loans as of 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of each settlement computation; provided, that, Agent retains the absolute right at any time or from time to time to make the above described adjustments at intervals more frequent than weekly, but in no event more than twice in any week. Agent shall deliver to each of the Lenders after the end of each week, or at such lesser period or periods as Agent shall determine, a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Loans for such period (such week or lesser period or periods being hereinafter referred to as a “Settlement Period”). If the summary statement is sent by Agent and received by a Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. New York 

 

68

 

time, then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer described in this Section by no later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the same Business Day and if received by a Lender after 12:00 p.m. New York time, then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer by no later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the next Business Day following the date of receipt. If, as of the end of any Settlement Period, the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans is more than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans as of the end of the previous Settlement Period, then such Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the preceding sentence) transfer to Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the increase. Alternatively, if the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans in any Settlement Period is less than the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans for the previous Settlement Period, then, if the summary statement is prepared and delivered to Lenders by Agent prior to 12:00 p.m. New York time, then Agent shall make the transfer described in this Section by no later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the same Business Day and if prepared and delivered to Lenders by Agent after 12:00 p.m. New York time, then Agent shall make the transfer by no later than 3:00 p.m. New York time on the next Business Day following the date of receipt, by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the decrease. The obligation of each of the Lenders and the Agent to transfer such funds and effect such settlement shall be irrevocable. Agent and each Lender agrees to mark its books and records at the end of each Settlement Period to show at all times the dollar amount of its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations. Each Lender shall only be entitled to receive interest on its Pro Rata Share of the Loans to the extent such Loans have been funded by such Lender. Because the Agent on behalf of Lenders may be advancing and/or may be repaid Loans prior to the time when Lenders will actually advance and/or be repaid such Loans, interest with respect to Loans shall be allocated by Agent in accordance with the amount of Loans actually advanced by and repaid to each Lender and the Agent and shall accrue from and including the date such Loans are so advanced to but excluding the date such Loans are either repaid by Borrowers or actually settled with the applicable Lender as described in this Section.

 

(c)           To the extent that Agent has made any such amounts available and the settlement described above shall not yet have occurred, upon repayment of any Loans by Borrower, Agent may apply such amounts repaid directly to any amounts made available by Agent pursuant to this Section. In lieu of weekly or more frequent settlements, Agent may, at its option, at any time require each Lender to provide Agent with immediately available funds representing its Pro Rata Share of each Loan, prior to Agent’s disbursement of such Loan to Borrowers. In such event, all Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Revolving Loan Commitment or Existing Term Loan Commitment, as the case may be, of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan hereunder.

 

(d)           If Agent is not funding a particular Loan to Borrowers pursuant to Section 6.9(a) hereof on any day, Agent may assume that each Lender will make available to Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Loan requested or otherwise made on such day and Agent may, in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to or for the benefit of Borrowers on such day. If Agent makes such 

 

69

 

corresponding amount available to Borrowers and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Agent by such Lender, Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Agent’s demand, at the highest interest rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to such Loans. During the period in which such Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, the amount so advanced by Agent to or for the benefit of Borrowers shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Loan made by Agent for its own account. Upon any such failure by a Lender to pay Agent, Agent shall promptly thereafter notify Borrowers of such failure and Borrowers shall pay such corresponding amount to Agent for its own account within five (5) Business Days of Borrowers’ receipt of such notice. A Lender who fails to pay Agent its Pro Rata Share of any Loans made available by the Agent on such Lender’s behalf, or any Lender who fails to pay any other amount owing by it to Agent, in each case within two (2) Business Days after the date such payment is due, is a “Defaulting Lender”. Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to a Defaulting Lender any payments received by Agent for the Defaulting Lender’s benefit, nor shall a Defaulting Lender be entitled to the sharing of any payments hereunder (including any principal, interest or fees). Amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender shall instead be paid to or retained by Agent. Agent may hold and, in its discretion, relend to Borrowers the amount of all such payments received or retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender. For purposes of voting or consenting to matters with respect to this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and determining Pro Rata Shares, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed not to be a “Lender” and such Lender’s Total Commitment shall be deemed to be zero (0). This Section shall remain effective with respect to a Defaulting Lender until such default is cured. The operation of this Section shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the Revolving Loan Commitment or Existing Term Loan Commitment of any Lender, or relieve or excuse the performance by any Borrower or any Obligor of their duties and obligations hereunder.

 

(e)           Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Total Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any Lender hereunder in fulfilling its Total Commitment.

 

6.10         Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders’ Rights.  The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be 

 

70

 

necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

(vi)          such other reports as to the Collateral as Agent shall reasonably request from time to time.

 

(b)           If any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s records or reports of the Collateral are prepared or maintained by an accounting service, contractor, shipper or other agent, such Borrower or Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes such service, contractor, shipper or agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to Agent and to follow Agent’s instructions with respect to further services at any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing.

 

7.2           Accounts Covenants.

 

(a)           Each Borrower and Guarantor shall notify Agent promptly of the assertion of any material claims, offsets, defenses or counterclaims by any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor or any material disputes with any of such persons or any settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof and all material adverse information relating to the financial condition of any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor. No credit, discount, allowance or extension or agreement for any of the foregoing shall be granted to 

 

72

 

any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor except in the ordinary course of such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s business in accordance with the current practices of such Borrower or Guarantor as in effect on the date hereof. So long as an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, no Borrower or Guarantor shall, without the prior consent of Agent, settle, adjust or compromise any material claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with any account debtor, Credit Card Issuer, Credit Card Processor. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent shall, at its option, have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with account debtors, Credit Card Issuers or Credit Card Processors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances.

(c)           Each Borrower and Guarantor shall notify Agent promptly of: any notice of a material default by such Borrower or Guarantor under any of the Credit Card Agreements or of any default which has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in the Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor ceasing to make payments or suspending payments to such Borrower or Guarantor, any notice from any Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor that such person is ceasing or suspending, or will cease or suspend, any present or future payments due or to become due to such Borrower or Guarantor from such person, or that such person is terminating or will terminate any of the Credit Card Agreements, and the failure of such Borrower or Guarantor to comply with any material terms of the Credit Card Agreements or any terms thereof which has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in the Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor ceasing or suspending payments to such Borrower or Guarantor.

 

(d)           Upon an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right at any time or times, in Agent’s name or in the name of a nominee of Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Receivables or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or otherwise.

With respect to the Equipment:  (a) upon Agent’s request, Borrowers and Guarantors shall, at their expense, at any time or times as Agent may request after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, deliver or cause to be delivered to Agent written appraisals as to the Equipment in form, scope and methodology acceptable to Agent and by an appraiser acceptable to Agent, addressed to Agent and upon which Agent is expressly permitted to rely; (b) Borrowers and Guarantors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the Equipment in good order, repair and running (ordinary wear and tear excepted); (c) Borrowers and Guarantors shall use the Equipment with all reasonable care and caution and in accordance with applicable standards of any insurance and in conformity with all applicable laws; (d) the Equipment is and shall be used in the business of Borrowers and

(b)           There shall be no more than three (3) originals of any bills of lading and other documents of title relating to goods being purchased by a Borrower which are outside the United States of America and in transit to the premises of such Borrower or the premises of a Freight Forwarder in the United States of America. As to any such bills of lading or other documents of title, unless and until Agent shall direct otherwise, three (3) originals of each of such bill of lading or other document of title shall be delivered to such Freight Forwarder as such Borrower may specify and that is party to a Collateral Access Agreement. Upon the request of Agent, one (1) original of each such bill of lading or other document of title shall be delivered to Agent. To the extent that the terms of this Section have not been satisfied as to any Inventory, such Inventory shall not constitute Eligible Inventory, except as Agent may otherwise agree.

 

7.6           Power of Attorney.  Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates and appoints Agent (and all persons designated by Agent) as such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s true and lawful attorney-in-fact, and authorizes Agent, in such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s, or Agent’s name, to, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing (i) demand payment on Receivables or other Collateral, (ii) enforce payment of Receivables by legal proceedings or otherwise, (iii) exercise all of such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s rights and remedies to collect any Receivable or other Collateral, (iv) sell or assign any Receivable upon such terms, for such amount and at such time or times as the Agent deems advisable, (v) settle, adjust, compromise, extend or renew an Account, (vi) discharge and release any Receivable, (vii) prepare, file and sign such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s name on any proof of claim in bankruptcy or other similar document against an account debtor or other obligor in respect of any Receivables or other Collateral, (viii) notify the post office authorities to change the address for delivery of remittances from account debtors or other obligors in respect of Receivables or other proceeds of Collateral to an address designated by Agent, and open and 

 

75

Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases Agent and Lenders and their respective officers, employees and designees from any liabilities arising from any act or acts under this power of attorney and in furtherance thereof, whether of omission or commission, except as a result of Agent’s or any Lender’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

7.7           Right to Cure.  Agent may, at its option, upon notice to Borrowers, (a) cure any default by any Borrower or Obligor under any material agreement with a third party that affects the Collateral, its value or the ability of Agent to collect, sell or otherwise dispose of the Collateral or the rights and remedies of Agent or any Lender therein or the ability of any Borrower or any Obligor to perform its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, (b) pay or bond on appeal any judgment entered against any Borrower or Obligor, (c) discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied on or existing with respect to the Collateral and (d) pay any amount, incur any expense or perform any act which, in Agent’s judgment, is necessary or appropriate to preserve, protect, insure or maintain the Collateral and the rights of Agent and Lenders with respect thereto. Agent may add any amounts so expended to the Obligations and charge Borrowers’ loan accounts therefor, such amounts to be repayable by Borrowers on demand. Agent and Lenders shall be under no obligation to effect such cure, payment or bonding and shall not, by doing so, be deemed to have assumed any obligation or liability of any Borrower or any Obligor. Any payment made or other action taken by Agent or any Lender under this Section shall be (a) made by Agent or such Lender after Agent or such Lender makes reasonable efforts to consult with Borrowers with respect thereto, and (b) without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default hereunder and to proceed accordingly.

 

76

 

7.8           Access to Premises.  From time to time as requested by Agent, at the cost and expense of Borrowers, (a) Agent and its designees (which shall include Documentation Agent) shall contemporaneously have complete access to all of each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s personnel and premises during normal business hours and after notice to, or at any time and without notice to Borrowers or Guarantors if an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, for the purposes of inspecting, verifying and auditing the Collateral and all of each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s books and records, including the Records, and (b) Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly furnish to Agent such copies of such books and records or extracts therefrom as Agent may request, and (c) Agent or any Lender or Agent’s designee may use during normal business hours such of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s equipment, supplies and premises as may be reasonably necessary for the foregoing and if an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing for the collection of Receivables and realization of other Collateral.

 

8.             REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Without limiting any other rights of Agent or Lenders, any insurance proceeds received by Agent at any time may be applied to payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due, in accordance with Section 6.4(a) hereof. Upon application of such proceeds to the Revolving Loans, Revolving Loans may be available subject and pursuant to the terms hereof to be used for the costs of repair or replacement of the Collateral lost or damages resulting in the payment of such insurance proceeds.

10.2         Remedies.

 

(a)           At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent and Lenders shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the UCC and other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to or consent by any Borrower or any Obligor, except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, 

 

108

 

remedies and powers granted to Agent and Lenders hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements, the UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Agent’s discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach by any Borrower or any Obligor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Subject to Section 12 hereof, Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, at any time or times, proceed directly against any Borrower or any Obligor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral.

 

(b)           Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent may, in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, shall (i) accelerate the payment of all Obligations and demand immediate payment thereof to Agent, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and the Bank Product Providers (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(g) and 10.1(h), all Obligations shall automatically become immediately due and payable), (ii) make Reserves for all sales, excise or similar taxes that are past due, (iii) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral, (iv) require Borrowers or any Obligor, at Borrowers’ expense, to assemble and make available to Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Agent, (v) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (vi) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other purpose, (vii) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at any office of Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of any Borrower or any Obligor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by each Borrower and Obligors and/or (viii) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, ten (10) days prior notice by Agent to Borrowers designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrowers waive any other notice. In the event Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, Borrowers waive the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required. At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, upon Agent’s request, Borrowers will either, as Agent shall specify, furnish cash collateral to the issuer to be used to secure and fund Agent’s reimbursement obligations to the issuer in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations or furnish cash collateral to Agent for the Letter of Credit Accommodations. Such cash collateral shall be in the amount equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Accommodations.

 

109

 

(c)           At any time or times that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Agent may, in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, Agent shall, enforce the rights of any Borrower or any Obligor against any account debtor, secondary obligor or other obligor in respect of any of the Accounts or other Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may, in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, Agent shall, at such time or times (i) notify any or all account debtors (including Credit Card Issuers and Credit Card Processors), secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof that the Receivables have been assigned to Agent and that Agent has a security interest therein and Agent may direct any or all accounts debtors (including Credit Card Issuers and Credit Card Processors), secondary obligors and other obligors to make payment of Receivables directly to Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise, and upon any terms or conditions, any and all Receivables or other obligations included in the Collateral and thereby discharge or release the account debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof without affecting any of the Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Receivables or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Agent and Lenders shall not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of its agents or attorneys with respect thereto, and (iv) take whatever other action Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests and the interests of Lenders. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, at Agent’s request, all invoices and statements sent to any account debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned to Agent and are payable directly and only to Agent and Borrowers and Obligors shall deliver to Agent such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services giving rise to any Accounts as Agent may require. In the event any account debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall, upon Agent’s request, hold the returned Inventory in trust for Agent, segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property, dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Agent’s instructions, and not issue any credits, discounts or allowances with respect thereto without Agent’s prior written consent.

 

(d)           If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent must be returned to any Borrower or any Obligor or paid to any other person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender. In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, that Agent is required to pay to any Borrower or any Obligor or such other person (without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind).

 

(e)           Anything in this Agreement, any Financing Agreement or any other agreements or document related hereto to the contrary notwithstanding, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action (other than actions against Agent for violating its obligations under this Agreement) to protect or enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement or one or more Financing Agreements without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement or one or more Financing Agreements shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent. Each Lender agrees and acknowledges 

 

110

 

that Agent may exercise all rights and remedies provided to Agent under, and in accordance with, the terms of the Financing Agreements and applicable law (including, without limitation, with respect to the liens granted to Agent).

 

(f)            To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Agent or any Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent or any Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Agent or any Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain consents of any Governmental Authority or other third party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors, secondary obligors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as Borrowers and Guarantors, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent or Lenders against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Agent or Lenders a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Agent or any Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Agent or any Lender of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or Guarantor or to impose any duties on Agent or Lenders that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

 

(g)           For the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise the rights and remedies hereunder, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby grants to Agent, to the extent assignable and to the extent that the same would not conflict with or, under applicable law and the terms of such agreement, result in the invalidity or breach of any agreements (other than any agreement between any Borrower or Guarantor and any other Borrower or Guarantor) or otherwise result in the revocation, infringement, unenforceability, misappropriation or dilution of any rights in any Intellectual Property forming the subject thereof, an irrevocable, non-exclusive 

 

111

 

license (exercisable upon the occurrence of and during the continuation of an Event of Default) without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Borrower or Guarantor, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the trademarks, service-marks, trade names, business names, trade styles, designs, logos and other source of business identifiers and other Intellectual Property and general intangibles now owned or hereafter acquired by such Borrower, wherever the same maybe located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

 

(h)           Agent may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in such order as Agent may elect, whether or not then due. Borrowers and Guarantors shall remain liable to Agent and Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys’ fees and expenses.

 

(i)            Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, (i) Agent and Lenders may, at Agent’s option, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, at the direction of the Required Lenders, Agent and Lenders shall, without notice, (A) cease making Loans or arranging for Letter of Credit Accommodations or reduce the lending formulas or amounts of Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations available to Borrowers and/or (B) terminate any provision of this Agreement providing for any future Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to be made by Agent and Lenders to Borrowers, and (ii) Agent may, at its option, establish such Reserves as Agent determines without limitation or restriction, notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided herein.

 

11.                                 JURY TRIAL WAIVER; OTHER WAIVERS AND CONSENTS; GOVERNING LAW.

 

11.1         Governing Law; Choice of Forum; Service of Process; Jury Trial Waiver.

 

(a)           The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of New York but excluding any principles of conflicts of law or other rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of New York.

 

(b)           Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Lenders irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York for New York County and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, whichever Agent may elect, and waive any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such 

 

112

 

matters shall be heard only in the courts described above (except that Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property).

 

(c)           Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth herein and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Agent’s option, by service upon such Borrower or Guarantor in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service, such Borrower or Guarantor shall appear in answer to such process, failing which such Borrower or Guarantor shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Agent against such Borrower or Guarantor for the amount of the claim and other relief requested.

 

(d)           BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION (i) ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR (ii) IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY AGREE AND CONSENT THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY BORROWER, ANY GUARANTOR, AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

 

(e)           Agent and Lenders shall not have any liability to any Borrower or any Guarantor (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower or Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, unless it is determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Agent and such Lender, that the losses were the result of acts or omissions constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent and/or such Lenders. In any such litigation, Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower and Guarantor: (i) certifies that neither Agent, any Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney acting for or on behalf of Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that Agent and Lenders would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce any of the waivers provided for in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and (ii) acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Agent and Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the

No notice to or demand on any Borrower or Guarantor which Agent or any Lender may elect to give shall entitle any Borrower or Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

 

11.3         Amendments and Waivers.

 

(a)           Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Agreement nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Agent and the Required Lenders or at Agent’s option, by Agent with the authorization of the Required Lenders, and as to amendments to any of the Financing Agreements (other than with respect to any provision of Section 12 hereof), by Borrowers; except, that:

(G)           reduce the amount of Excess Availability required in Section 4.2(d) or Section 9.17 hereof;

 

114

 

(H)          amend, modify, or waive the provisions of Sections 9.17 or 9.18 hereof, or any definition of any term relating to the financial terms used in such Section, if such amendment, modification or waiver makes the covenants contained therein less restrictive; or

(ii)           without the prior written consent of Agent and each Revolving Loan Lender directly affected thereby, no such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination shall:

 

(A)          amend, modify or waive any of the provisions of this Section 11.3(a)(ii);

(c)           Agent and Lenders shall not, by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have expressly or impliedly waived any of its or their rights, powers and/or remedies unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed as provided herein. Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Agent or any Lender of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Agent or any Lender would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

 

(d)           Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3(a) 

 

115

 

above, in connection with any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, in the event that any Lender whose consent thereto is required shall fail to consent or fail to consent in a timely manner (such Lender being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), but the consent of any other Lenders to such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that is required is obtained, if any, then Wachovia shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time thereafter, and upon the exercise by Wachovia of such right, such Non-Consenting Lender shall have the obligation, to sell, assign and transfer to Wachovia or such Eligible Transferee as Wachovia may specify, the Total Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender and all rights and interests of such Non-Consenting Lender pursuant thereto. Wachovia shall provide the Non-Consenting Lender with prior written notice of its intent to exercise its right under this Section, which notice shall specify on the date on which such purchase and sale shall occur. Such purchase and sale shall be pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance (whether or not executed by the Non-Consenting Lender), except that on the date of such purchase and sale, Wachovia, or such Eligible Transferee specified by Wachovia, shall pay to the Non-Consenting Lender the amount equal to: (i) the principal balance of the Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender outstanding as of the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the effective date of such purchase and sale, plus (ii) amounts accrued and unpaid in respect of interest and fees payable to the Non-Consenting Lender to the effective date of the purchase, minus (iii) if such Non-Consenting Lender is a Revolving Loan Lender, the amount of any closing fee received by such Non-Consenting Lender in connection with the Existing Loan Agreement and any closing, consent or amendment fee received by such Non-Consenting Lender in connection with this Agreement, multiplied by the fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months remaining, in the then current term of the Revolving Loan Facility and the denominator of which is the total number of months in the then current term of the Revolving Loan Facility. Such purchase and sale shall be effective on the date of the payment of such amount to the Non-Consenting Lender and the Total Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender shall terminate on such date.

 

(e)           The consent of Agent shall be required for any amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of Agent hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, in addition to the consent of the Lenders otherwise required by this Section and the exercise by Agent of any of its rights hereunder with respect to Reserves, Eligible Credit Card Receivables, Eligible Damaged Goods Vendors Receivables, Eligible Sell-Off Vendors Receivables or Eligible Inventory shall not be deemed an amendment to the advance rates provided for in this Section 11.3.

 

11.4         Waiver of Counterclaims.  Each Borrower and Guarantor waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other then compulsory counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto.

 

11.5         Indemnification.  Each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify and hold Agent and each Lender, and its respective officers, directors, agents, employees, advisors and counsel and their respective Affiliates (each such person being an “Indemnitee”), harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened 

 

116

 

related to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Agreement, any other Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, including amounts paid in settlement, court costs, and the fees and expenses of counsel except that no Borrower or Guarantor shall not have any obligation under this Section 11.5 to indemnify an Indemnitee with respect to a matter covered hereby resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction (but without limiting the obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor as to any other Indemnitee). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay the maximum portion which they are permitted to pay under applicable law to Agent and Lenders in satisfaction of indemnified matters under this Section. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower or Guarantor shall assert, and each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable upon demand. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

 

12.           THE AGENT

 

12.1         Appointment, Powers and Immunities.  Each Lender irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes Wachovia to act as Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements with such powers as are specifically delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Financing Agreements, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Borrower or any Guarantor or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and (c) shall not be responsible to Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Agent may employ agents and attorneys in fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys in fact selected by it in good faith. Agent may deem and treat the payee of any note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until the assignment thereof pursuant to an agreement (if and to the extent permitted herein) in form and substance satisfactory to Agent shall have been delivered to and acknowledged by Agent.

 

117

 

12.2         Reliance by Agent.  Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Agents and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders.

 

12.3         Events of Default.

 

(a)           Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or other failure of a condition precedent to the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, unless and until Agent has received written notice from a Lender, or a Borrower specifying such Event of Default or any unfulfilled condition precedent, and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition” (each a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition”). In the event that Agent receives such a Notice of Default or Failure of Condition, Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Agent shall (subject to Section 12.7 hereof) take such action with respect to any such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until Agent shall have received such directions, Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to or by reason of such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent, as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding the existence or occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default or any other failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement to the contrary, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 12.8 hereof, Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, make Loans and issue or cause to be issued Letter of Credit Accommodations for the ratable account and risk of Lenders from time to time if Agent reasonably and in good faith believes making such Loans or issuing or causing to be issued such Letter of Credit Accommodations is in the best interest of Lenders.

 

(b)           Except with the prior written consent of Agent, no Lender may assert or exercise any enforcement right or remedy in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations or other Obligations, as against any Borrower or any Guarantor or any of the Collateral or other property of any Borrower or Guarantor.

 

12.4         Wachovia in its Individual Capacity.  With respect to its Total Commitment and the Loans made and Letter of Credit Accommodations issued or caused to be issued by it (and any successor acting as Agent), so long as Wachovia shall be a Lender hereunder, it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include Wachovia in its individual capacity as Lender hereunder. Wachovia (and any successor acting as Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) lend money to, make investments in and 

 

118

 

generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or Guarantor (and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if it were not acting as Agent, and Wachovia and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower or any Guarantor and any of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

 

12.5         Indemnification.  Lenders agree to indemnify Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers or Guarantors hereunder and without limiting any obligations of Borrowers or Guarantors hereunder) ratably, in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, for any and all claims of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the costs and expenses that Agent is obligated to pay hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent it arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the party to be indemnified as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

 

12.6         Non Reliance on Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on Agent or other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrowers and Guarantors and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by Borrowers or Guarantors of any term or provision of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any Borrower or Guarantor. Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any information received by Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor which is required to be provided to Lenders or which is deemed to be requested by Lenders hereunder and with a copy of any Notice of Default or Failure of Condition received by Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor; provided, that, Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable to Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Agent hereunder, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any Borrower or Guarantor that may come into the possession of Agent.

 

12.7         Failure to Act.  Except for action expressly required of Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements, Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 12.5 hereof against 

 

119

 

any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

 

12.8         Additional Revolving Loans.  Agent shall not make any Revolving Loans or provide any Letter of Credit Accommodations to Borrowers on behalf of Lenders intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations would cause the aggregate amount of the total outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to Borrowers to exceed the Borrowing Base, without the prior consent of all Lenders, provided, that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Agent may make any such additional Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation so long as:  (a) the total principal amount of such additional Revolving Loans or such additional Letter of Credit Accommodations together with the principal amount of Special Agent Advances made pursuant to Section 12.11 hereof, shall not exceed the least of (i) $7,500,000, (ii)the sum of (x) the amount which, when added to all other Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and Special Agent Advances, would not cause the principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and Special Agent Advances to exceed the Borrowing Base and (y) if applicable, an amount equal to any reduction, made with the consent of all Lenders, of the Excess Availability required by Section 9.17 hereof, and (iii) the amount which would not cause the total principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and Special Agent Advances to exceed the Revolving Loan Limit, and (b) no such additional Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be outstanding more than ninety (90) days after the date such additional Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation is made or issued (as the case may be), except as the Required Lenders may otherwise agree. Each Lender shall be obligated to pay Agent the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any such additional Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations.

 

12.9         Concerning the Collateral and the Related Financing Agreements.  Each Lender authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by Agent or Required Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements and the exercise by Agent or Required Lenders of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

 

12.10       Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

 

(a)           is deemed to have requested that Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report and a monthly or weekly Borrowing Base Certificate, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(i)(c) hereof, prepared by Agent (each field audit or examination report and monthly or weekly report with respect to the Borrowing Base being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”);

 

(b)           expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent (A) does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, or (B) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report;

 

120

 

(c)           expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or any other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding any Borrower and any Guarantor and will rely significantly upon such Borrower’s and Guarantor’s books and records, as well as on representations of such Borrower’s and Guarantor’s personnel; and

 

(d)           agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use in accordance with the terms of Section 14.5 hereof, and not to distribute or use any Report in any other manner.

 

12.11       Collateral Matters.

 

(a)           Subject to the limitations in Section 12.8 hereof, Agent may, at its option, from time to time, at any time on or after an Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing or upon any other failure of a condition precedent to the Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, make such disbursements and advances (“Special Agent Advances”) which Agent, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or desirable either (i) to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof or (ii) to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by Borrowers of the Loans and other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to Borrowers or Obligors pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements consisting of (A) costs, fees and expenses and (B) payments to any issuer of Letter of Credit Accommodations; provided, that notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, Agent may make any such Special Agent Advances so long as:  (a) the total principal amount of such Special Agent Advances together with the principal amount of the additional Revolving Loans and additional Letter of Credit Accommodations made pursuant to Section 12.11 hereof, shall not exceed the least of (i) $7,500,000, (ii) the sum of (x) the amount which, when added to all other Special Agent Advances, Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations, would not cause the principal amount of all outstanding Special Agent Advances, Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Borrowing Base and (y) if applicable, an amount equal to any reduction, made with the consent of all Lenders, of the Excess Availability required by Section 9.17 hereof, and (iii) the amount which would not cause the total principal amount of all Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and Special Agent Advances to exceed the Revolving Loan Limit. Special Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and be secured by the Collateral. Special Agent Advances shall not constitute Revolving Loans but shall otherwise constitute Obligations hereunder. Agent shall notify Lenders and Borrowers in writing of each such Special Agent Advance, which notice shall include a description of the purpose of such Special Agent Advance. Without limitation of its obligations pursuant to Section 6.10 hereof, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to Agent, upon Agent’s demand, in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Special Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to Agent by such Lender, then such Lender shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender and Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds, on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that 

 

121

 

day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Agent’s demand, at the highest Revolving Loan Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Prime Rate Loans.

 

(b)           Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral (i) upon termination of all of the Total Commitments of all Lenders and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations and delivery of cash collateral to the extent required under Section 14.1 below, or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the applicable Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which no Borrower or Guarantor owned an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $1,000,000 or (v) if required or permitted under the terms of any of the other Financing Agreements, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by all of Lenders. Except as provided above, Agent will not release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral without the prior written authorization of all of Lenders. Upon request by Agent at any time, Lenders will promptly confirm in writing Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.

 

(c)           Without any manner limiting Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by the Required Lenders, each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon Agent under this Section. Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the security interest, mortgage or liens granted to Agent upon any Collateral to the extent set forth above; provided, that, (i) Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Agent’s opinion, would expose Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such security interest, mortgage or liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any security interest, mortgage or lien upon (or obligations of any Borrower or any Guarantor in respect of) the Collateral retained by such Borrower or such Guarantor.

 

(d)           Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect of the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, or whether any particular reserves are appropriate, or that the liens and security interests granted to Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Financing Agreements or otherwise have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to Agent in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Agent may act in any manner it may deem 

 

122

 

appropriate, in its discretion, given Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender.

 

12.12       Agency for Perfection.  Each Lender hereby appoints Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral of Agent in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession (or where the security interest of a secured party with possession has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of any such Collateral for the benefit of Agent, the other Lenders and the Bank Product Providers as secured party. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Agent or in accordance with Agent’s instructions.

 

12.13       Successor Agent.  Agent may resign as Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders and Borrowers. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Borrowers, a successor agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance by the Lender so selected of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all of the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Agent and the term “Agent” as used herein and in the other Financing Agreements shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted by it while it was Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days after the date of a retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.

 

13.           JOINT AND SEVERAL LIABILITY; SURETYSHIP WAIVERS.

 

13.1         Independent Obligations; Subrogation.  The Obligations of each Borrower and of each Guarantor hereunder are joint and several. To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives any claim, right or remedy which such Borrower or Guarantor now has or hereafter acquires against any other Borrower or Guarantor that arises hereunder including, without limitation, any claim, remedy or right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification, or participation in any claim, right or remedy of Agent or any Lender against any Borrower or Guarantor or any Collateral which Agent or any Lender now has or hereafter acquires, whether or not such claim, right or remedy arises in equity, under contract, by statute, under common law or otherwise until the Obligations are fully paid and finally discharged. In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives any right to proceed against the other Borrowers and Guarantors, now or hereafter, for contribution, indemnity, reimbursement, and any other suretyship rights and claims, whether direct or indirect, liquidated or contingent, whether arising under express or implied contract or by operation of law, which any Borrower or Guarantor may now have or hereafter have as 

 

123

 

against the other Borrowers and Guarantors with respect to the Obligations until the Obligations are fully paid and finally discharged. Each Borrower and Guarantor also hereby waives any rights of recourse to or with respect to any asset of the other Borrowers and Guarantors until the Obligations are fully paid and finally discharged.

 

13.2         Authority to Modify Obligations and Security.  Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that any action taken by Agent and/or Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and applicable law to: (a) renew, extend, accelerate, or otherwise change the time for payment of, or otherwise change any other term or condition of, any document or agreement evidencing or relating to any Obligations as such Obligations relate to the other Borrowers and Guarantors, including, without limitation, to increase or decrease the rate of interest thereon; (b) accept, substitute, waive, defease, increase, release, exchange or otherwise alter any Collateral, in whole or in part, securing the Obligations of each other Borrower or Guarantor; (c) apply any and all such Collateral and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as Agent and Lenders, in their sole discretion, may determine; (d) deal with the other Borrowers and Guarantors as Agent or any Lender may elect; (e) in Agent’s and Lenders’ sole discretion, settle, release on terms satisfactory to them, or by operation of law or otherwise, compound, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate any Obligations of any other Borrower or Guarantor and/or any of the Collateral in any manner, and bid and purchase any of the collateral at any sale thereof; (f) apply any and all payments or recoveries from the other Borrowers and Guarantors as Agent or Lenders, in their sole discretion, may determine, whether or not such indebtedness relates to the Obligations; all whether such Obligations are secured or unsecured or guaranteed or not guaranteed by others; and (g) apply any sums realized from Collateral furnished by the other Borrowers and Guarantors upon any of its indebtedness or obligations to Agent or Lenders as they in their sole discretion, may determine, whether or not such indebtedness relates to the Obligations; shall not in any way diminish, release or discharge the liability of any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder (except to the extent that the Obligations are in fact repaid as a result of such action).

 

13.3         Waiver of Defenses.  Upon an Event of Default by any Borrower or Guarantor in respect of any Obligations, Agent and Lenders may, at their option and without notice to any Borrower or Guarantor, proceed directly against any Borrower or Guarantor to collect and recover the full amount of the liability hereunder, or any portion thereof, and each Borrower and Guarantor waives any right to require Agent or any Lender to: (a) proceed against the other Borrowers and Guarantors or any other person whomsoever; (b) proceed against or exhaust any Collateral given to or held by Agent or any Lender in connection with the Obligations; (c) give notice of the terms, time and place of any public or private sale of any of the Collateral except as otherwise provided herein; or (d) pursue any other remedy in Agent’s or any Lender’s power whatsoever. A separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against any Borrower or Guarantor whether or not action is brought against the other Borrowers and Guarantors and whether the other Borrowers and Guarantors be joined in any such action or actions; and each Borrower and Guarantor waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability hereunder or the enforcement hereof, and agrees that any payment of any Obligations or other act which shall toll any statute of limitations applicable thereto shall similarly operate to toll such statute of limitations applicable to the liability hereunder.

 

13.4         Exercise of Agent’s and Lenders’ Rights.  Each Borrower and Guarantor

 

124

 

hereby authorizes and empowers Agent and Lenders in their sole discretion, without any notice or demand to such Borrower or Guarantor whatsoever and without affecting the liability of such Borrower or Guarantor hereunder, to exercise any right or remedy which Agent or any Lender may have available to them against the other Borrowers and Guarantors.

 

13.5         Additional Waivers.  Each Borrower and Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the other Borrowers and Guarantors or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of any other Borrowers or Guarantors or by reason of any act or omission of Agent or any Lender or others which directly or indirectly results in or aids the discharge or release of any other Borrowers or Guarantors or any Obligations or any Collateral by operation of law or otherwise. The Obligations shall be enforceable against each Borrower and Guarantor without regard to the validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Obligations with respect to any other Borrowers or Guarantors or any of the documents related thereto or any collateral security documents securing any of the Obligations. No exercise by Agent or any Lender of, and no omission of Agent or any Lender to exercise, any power or authority recognized herein and no impairment or suspension of any right or remedy of Agent or any Lender against any Borrower or Guarantor or any Collateral shall in any way suspend, discharge, release, exonerate or otherwise affect any of the Obligations or any Collateral furnished by Borrowers or Guarantors or give to Borrowers or Guarantors any right of recourse against Agent or any Lender. Each Borrower and Guarantor specifically agrees that the failure of Agent or any Lender: (a) to perfect any lien on or security interest in any property heretofore or hereafter given any Borrower or Guarantor to secure payment of the Obligations, or to record or file any document relating thereto or (b) to file or enforce a claim against the estate (either in administration, bankruptcy or other proceeding) of any Borrower or Guarantor shall not in any manner whatsoever terminate, diminish, exonerate or otherwise affect the liability of any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder.

 

13.6         Additional Indebtedness .  Additional Obligations may be created from time to time at the request of any Borrower or Guarantor and without further authorization from or notice to any other Borrower or Guarantor even though the borrowing Borrower’s or Guarantor’s financial condition may deteriorate since the date hereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor waives the right, if any, to require Agent or any Lender to disclose to such Borrower or Guarantor any information it may now have or hereafter acquire concerning any other Borrower’s or Guarantor’s character, credit, Collateral, financial condition or other matters. Each Borrower and Guarantor has established adequate means to obtain from each other Borrower and Guarantor, on a continuing basis, financial and other information pertaining to such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s business and affairs, and assumes the responsibility for being and keeping informed of the financial and other conditions of the other Borrowers and Guarantors and of all circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations which diligent inquiry would reveal. Neither Agent nor any Lender need inquire into the powers of any Borrower or Guarantor or the authority of any of their respective officers, directors, partners or agents acting or purporting to act in their behalf, and any Obligations created in reliance upon the purported exercise of such power or authority is hereby guaranteed. All Obligations of each Borrower and Guarantor to Agent and Lenders heretofore, now or hereafter created shall be deemed to have been granted at each Borrower’s and Guarantor’s special insistence and request and in consideration of and in reliance upon this Agreement.

14.                                 TERM; MISCELLANEOUS.

 

14.1         Term.

 

(a)           This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall become effective as of the date set forth on the first page hereof and shall continue in full force and effect for a term ending on March 17, 2012 (the “Renewal Date”), and from year to year thereafter, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the entire unpaid principal amount of the Existing Term Loan, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all other Obligations with respect thereto, shall be due and payable on the Existing Term Loan Maturity Date, unless this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are sooner terminated pursuant to the terms hereof. Agent may, at its option (or shall at the direction of any Revolving Loan Lender in writing received by Agent at least sixty (60) days prior to the Renewal Date or the anniversary of any Renewal Date, as the case may be), terminate this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, or Borrowers may terminate this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, in each case, effective on the Renewal Date or on the anniversary of the Renewal Date in any year by giving to the other party at least sixty (60) days prior written notice; provided, that, this Agreement and all other Financing Agreements still in effect on such date, if any, must be terminated simultaneously. In addition, Borrowers may terminate this Agreement 

 

126

 

at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable) and Agent may, at its option, and shall at the direction of Required Revolving Loan Lenders, terminate this Agreement at any time on or after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, subject to any cure periods specified in Section 10.1 hereof. Upon the Renewal Date or any other effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall pay to Agent all outstanding and unpaid Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and other contingent Obligations which expressly survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements) and shall furnish cash collateral to Agent (or at Agent’s option, a letter of credit issued for the account of Borrowers and at Borrowers’ expense, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, by an issuer acceptable to Agent and payable to Agent as beneficiary) in such amounts as Agent determines are reasonably necessary to secure Agent, Lenders and any Revolving Lender that is an issuing bank from loss, cost, damage or expense, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations, including issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Agent or any Lender has not yet received final payment and any continuing obligations of Agent or any Lender pursuant to any Deposit Account Control Agreement. The amount of such cash collateral (or letter of credit, as Agent may determine) as to any Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be in the amount equal to one hundred five  (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodations plus the amount of any fees and expenses payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of the letters of credit giving rise to such Letter of Credit Accommodations. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Federal funds to the Agent Payment Account or such other bank account of Agent, as Agent may, in its discretion, designate in writing to Borrowers for such purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrowers to the Agent Payment Account or other bank account designated by Agent are received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, New York time.

 

(b)           No termination of the Revolving Loan Facility, this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall relieve or discharge any Borrower or any Borrower of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements until all Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid, and Agent’s continuing security interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Agent and Lenders hereunder, under the other Financing Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid and Lenders have no further obligations hereunder (following which all securing interests, liens and the like shall be released). Accordingly, each Borrower and Guarantor waives any rights it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral and Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to any Borrower or Guarantor, or to file them with any filing office, unless and until this Agreement and all Total Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid and satisfied in full in immediately available funds.

(m)          This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are the result of negotiations among and have been reviewed by counsel to Agent and the other parties, and are the products of all parties.

held to be invalid or unenforceable and the rights and obligations of the parties shall be construed and enforced only to such extent as shall be permitted by applicable law.

 

14.5         Confidentiality.

 

(a)           Agent and each Lender shall use all reasonable efforts to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any non-public information supplied to it by any Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement which is clearly and conspicuously marked as confidential at the time such information is furnished by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or such Lender, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information: (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, subpoena or court order, (ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants, in connection with any litigation to which Agent or such Lender is a party, (iii) to any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or to any Affiliate of any Lender so long as such Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or Affiliate shall have been instructed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 14.5, or (iv) to counsel for Agent or any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant).

 

(b)           In the event that Agent or any Lender receives a request or demand to disclose any confidential information pursuant to any subpoena or court order, Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender, Agent or such Lender will promptly notify Borrowers of such request so that Borrowers may seek a protective order or other appropriate relief or remedy and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, disclose such information and, subject to reimbursement by Borrowers of Agent’s or such Lender’s expenses, cooperate with Borrowers in the reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the disclosed information which Borrowers so designate, to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Agent or such Lender.

 

(c)           In no event shall this Section 14.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower or Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to Agent or any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) on a non-confidential basis from a person other than a Borrower or Guarantor, (iii) to require Agent or any Lender to return any materials furnished by any Borrower or Guarantor to Agent or a Lender or prevent Agent or a Lender from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with the Code of Ethics for the Exchange of Credit Information promulgated by The Robert Morris Associates or other applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information.

No Lender may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent, except as provided in Section 14.7 below. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements.

 

14.7         Assignments; Participations.

Anything contained in this Section 14.7 hereof to the contrary notwithstanding, the consent of Borrowers or Agent shall not be required, the minimum assignment amount shall not be applicable, an Assignment and Acceptance shall not be required to be delivered to, accepted by or recorded by Agent on the Register in order to be effective, valid, binding and enforceable and payments of the processing fee shall not be required if (x) such assignment is in connection with any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, or other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the business or loan portfolio of a Lender or (y) such assignment is made by Existing Term Loan Lender with regard to all or any portion of its Existing Term Loan Commitment; provided, however, that Borrowers and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with the assigning Lender in connection with the interest so assigned until such time as written notice of such assignment shall have been delivered by the assigning Lender or the assignee to Agent.

 

(b)           Agent, acting for this purpose only as agent of Borrowers, shall maintain a register of the names and addresses of Lenders, their Total Commitments and the principal amount of their Loans (the “Register”); provided, that, in the case of an assignment or delegation covered by Section 14.7(a) hereof, which is not reflected in the Register, the assigning Lender shall maintain a comparable register (the “Lender Register”) on behalf of Borrowers. Agent shall also maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall modify the Register to give effect to each Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register and Lender Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and Borrowers, Guarantors, Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register or Lender Register as a Lender hereunder for all 

 

131

 

purposes of this Agreement. The Register and Lender Register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(c)           If required under Section 14.7 hereof, upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, and otherwise from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and to the other Financing Agreements and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations (including, without limitation, the obligation to participate in Letter of Credit Accommodations) of a Lender hereunder and thereunder and (ii) the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

 

(d)           By execution and delivery to each other of an Assignment and Acceptance, the assignor and assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the execution, legality, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower, any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Borrower or any Guarantor of any of the Obligations; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance, (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, Agent and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements as are delegated to Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Agent and Lenders may furnish any information concerning any Borrower or any Guarantor in the possession of Agent or any Lender from time to time to assignees and Participants.

 

(e)           Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Total Commitment and the Loans owing to it and its participation in the Letter of Credit Accommodations, without the consent of Agent or the other Lenders); provided, that, (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Total Commitment hereunder) and the other Financing Agreements shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible 

 

132

 

to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, and Borrowers, the other Lenders and Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, (iii) the Participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements (the Participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the Participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by Borrowers or any Guarantor hereunder (including any amounts payable under Sections 3.3 or 6.4(d) hereof) shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation.

 

(f)            Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit any Lender from pledging its Loans hereunder to a Federal Reserve Bank in support of borrowings made by such Lenders from such Federal Reserve Bank. Borrowers hereby acknowledge that the Lenders and their Affiliates may sell or securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans, which loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or direct or indirect interests will be rated by Moody’s, Standard & Poor’s or one or more other rating agencies (the “Rating Agencies”). Borrowers shall cooperate with the Lenders and their Affiliates to effect the Securitization including, without limitation, by (a) amending this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, and executing such additional documents, as reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the Securitization, provided that (i) any such amendment or additional documentation does not impose material additional costs on the Borrowers and (ii) any such amendment or additional documentation does not materially adversely affect the rights, or materially increase the obligations, of the Borrowers under the Financing Agreements or change or affect in a manner adverse to the Borrowers the financial terms of the Loans, (b) providing such information as may be reasonably requested by the Lenders in connection with the rating of the Loans or the Securitization, and (c) providing in connection with any rating of the Loans a certificate (i) agreeing to indemnify the Lenders and their Affiliates, any of the Rating Agencies, or any party providing credit support or otherwise participating in the Securitization (collectively, the “Securitization Parties”) for any losses, claims, damages or liabilities (the “Liabilities”) to which the Lenders, their Affiliates or such Securitization Parties may become subject insofar as the Liabilities arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in any Financing Agreement or in any writing delivered by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor to the Lenders in connection with any Loan Document or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and such indemnity shall survive any transfer by the Lenders or their successors or assigns of the Loans and (ii) agreeing to reimburse the Lenders and their Affiliates for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such Persons in connection with defending the Liabilities.

 

(g)           Borrowers shall assist Agent or any Lender permitted to sell assignments or participations under this Section 14.7 in whatever manner reasonably necessary in order to enable or effect any such assignment or participation, including (but not limited to) the execution and delivery of any and all agreements, notes and other documents and instruments as shall be requested and the delivery of informational materials, appraisals or other documents 

 

133

 

for, and the participation of relevant management in meetings and conference calls with, potential Lenders or Participants. Borrowers shall certify the correctness, completeness and accuracy, in all material respects, of all descriptions of Borrowers and their affairs provided, prepared or reviewed by Borrowers that are contained in any selling materials and all other information provided by it and included in such materials.

 

14.8         Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, any supplements hereto or thereto, and any instruments or documents delivered or to be delivered in connection herewith or therewith represents the entire agreement and understanding concerning the subject matter hereof and thereof between the parties hereto, and supersede all other prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, representations, warranties, commitments, proposals, offers and contracts concerning the subject matter hereof, whether oral or written. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and any schedule or exhibit hereto, the terms of this Agreement shall govern.

 

14.9         USA Patriot Act.  Each Lender subject to the USA PATRIOT Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) (the “Act”) hereby notifies Borrowers and Guarantors that pursuant to the requirements of the Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each person or corporation who opens an account and/or enters into a business relationship with it, which information includes the name and address of Borrowers and Guarantors and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such person in accordance with the Act and any other applicable law. Borrowers and Guarantors are hereby advised that any Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder are subject to satisfactory results of such verification.

 

14.10       Counterparts, Etc.  This Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements by telefacsimile shall have the same force and effect as the delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement or any of such other Financing Agreements. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of any such agreement by telefacsimile shall also deliver an original executed counterpart, but the failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of such agreement.

W  I  T  N  E  S  S  E  T  H:

(“Lerner”), Lernco, Inc. (“Lernco”), and Jasmine Company, Inc. (“Jasmine” and together with Lerner, “Borrowers” and individually each a “Borrower”) as set forth in that certain Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated                , 2007, by and among Borrowers, certain of their affiliates, Agent, and Lenders (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, the “Loan Agreement”), and the other agreements, documents and instruments referred to therein or at any time executed and/or delivered in connection therewith or related thereto (all of the foregoing, together with the Loan Agreement, as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, being collectively referred to herein as the “Financing Agreements”);

 

WHEREAS, as provided under the Loan Agreement, Assignor committed to making Revolving Loans (the “Committed Revolving Loans”) to Borrowers in an aggregate amount not to exceed                               Dollars ($          ) (the “Commitment”);

 

WHEREAS, Assignor wishes to assign to Assignee [part of the] [all] rights and obligations of Assignor under the Loan Agreement in respect of its Commitment in an amount equal to $                        (the “Assigned Commitment Amount”) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and Assignee wishes to accept assignment of such rights and to assume such obligations from Assignor on such terms and subject to such conditions;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual agreements

SCHEDULE 34

 

Employee Benefit Plans

 

a) Savings and Retirement Plan

 

The Company contributes to a defined contribution savings and retirement plan (“the SARP”) qualifying under section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code. Participation in the SARP is available to all associates, if not covered by the pension plan discussed below, who have completed 1,000 or more hours of service with the Company during certain twelve-month periods and have attained the age of 21. Participants may contribute an aggregate of up to 15% of their pay to the SARP, subject to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) limits. The Company matches 100% of the employee’s contribution up to a maximum of 4% of the employee’s pay, subject to IRS limits. The Company match is immediately vested. In addition, the Company makes a discretionary retirement contribution ranging from 3% to 8% of each participant’s base salary depending on the length of service, which is also subject to IRS limits. For retirement contributions made prior to January 1, 2007, the Company’s retirement contribution vests 20% per year, beginning in the third year of service. As a result of the adoption of new pension plan legislation in 2006, beginning in 2007, the vesting period for new contributions made by the Company will begin in the second year of service.

 

b) Pension Plan

 

The Company sponsors a single-employer defined benefit pension plan (“plan”) covering substantially all union employees, representing approximately 10% of the Company’s workforce at February 3, 2007. The plan provides retirement benefits for union employees, consisting of non-management store associates, who have attained the age of 18 and completed 425 hours of service in the twelve-month period following the date of employment. The plan provides benefits based on length of service. The Company’s funding policy for the pension plan is to contribute annually the amount necessary to provide for benefits based on accrued service.

(“Lerner” and together with Pledgors, collectively, “Borrowers”), Guarantors, and the Persons from time to time party thereto as lenders (“Lenders”), have amended and restated or are about to amend and restate the existing financing arrangements of Pledgee, Lenders, Borrowers and Guarantors pursuant to which Lenders (or Pledgee on behalf of Lenders) may make loans and advances and provide other financial accommodations to Borrowers as set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, by and among Pledgee, Lenders, Borrowers and Guarantors (as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, the “Loan Agreement”) and other agreements, documents and instruments referred to therein or at any time executed and/or delivered in connection therewith or related thereto, including, but not limited to, this Guarantee (all of the foregoing, together with the Loan Agreement, as the same now exist or may hereafter be amended, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, restated or replaced, being collectively referred to herein as the “Financing Agreements”).

 

WHEREAS,  Lernco owns all right, title, and interest in and to, among other things, all the trademarks, United States trademarks and trademark registrations, and the trademark applications and tradenames, set forth on Exhibit A-1 hereto (the “Lernco Trademarks”) and Jasmine owns all right, title, and interest in and to, among other things, all the trademarks, United States trademarks and trademark registrations, and the trademark applications and tradenames, set forth on Exhibit A-2 hereto (the “Jasmine Trademarks”, and collectively, together with the Lernco Trademarks”, the “Trademarks”); and

 

 

WHEREAS, in furtherance of the terms of the Financing Agreements and in consideration of Pledgee and the Lenders entering into the Loan Agreement, Pledgors and Pledgee wish to amend and restate the Existing Security Agreement.

 

NOW THEREFORE, for valuable consideration received and to be received, and as security for the full payment and performance of the Obligations (as defined in the Loan Agreement) arising from the Loan Agreement, and to induce Pledgee and the Lenders to make and continue to make loans and advances to the Borrowers under the Loan Agreement, Pledgors and Pledgee hereby amend and restate the Existing Security Agreement in its entirety as set forth in this Agreement and Pledgors hereby grant to Pledgee, for itself and the ratable benefit of the Lenders and Bank Product Providers, a security interest in:

 

(a)           the Trademarks;

 

(b)           all registrations of the Trademarks in any State of the United States and any foreign countries and localities;

 

(c)           all tradenames, trademarks and trademark registrations hereafter adopted or acquired and used, including, but not limited to, those which are based upon or derived from the Trademarks or any variations thereof (the “Future Trademarks”);

 

(d)           all extensions, renewals, and continuations of the Trademarks and Future Trademarks and the registrations referred to in clause (b) above;

 

(e)           all rights to sue for past, present and future infringements of the Trademarks and Future Trademarks;

 

(f)            all packaging, labeling, trade names, service marks, logos, and trade dress including or containing the Trademarks and Future Trademarks, or a representation thereof, or any variation thereof;

 

(g)           all licenses and other agreements under which each Pledgor is licensor, but only to the extent that the grant of a security interest therein would not be prohibited by or be a breach of terms thereof, and all fees, rents, royalties, proceeds or monies thereunder, relating to the Trademarks and Future Trademarks and the use thereof; and

 

(h)           all goodwill of each Pledgor’s business connected with, symbolized by or in any way related to the items set forth in clauses (a) through (g) above.

 

All of the foregoing items set forth in clauses (a) through (h) are hereinafter referred to collectively as the “Collateral.”

 

AND Pledgors hereby covenants with Pledgee as follows:

 

1.             Pledgors’ Obligations.  Each Pledgor agrees that, notwithstanding this Agreement, it will perform and discharge and remain liable for all its covenants, duties, and obligations arising in connection with the Collateral and any licenses and agreements related thereto.  Pledgee shall have no obligation or liability in connection with the Collateral or any licenses or

 

2

 

agreements relating thereto by reason of this Agreement or any payment received by Pledgee or any Lender relating to the Collateral, nor shall Pledgee or any Lender be required to perform any covenant, duty, or obligation of each Pledgor arising in connection with the Collateral or any license or agreement related thereto or to take any other action regarding the Collateral or any such licenses or agreement.

 

2.             Representations and Warranties.  Each Pledgor represents and warrants to Pledgee that:

 

(a)           Pledgors are the owner of the Collateral, and no adverse claims have been made with respect to its title to or the validity of the Collateral;

 

(b)           the Trademarks are the only trademarks, trademark registrations, trademark applications and trade names in which Pledgors have all right, title and interest;

 

(c)           none of the Collateral is subject to any prior mortgage, pledge, lien, security interest, lease, charge, encumbrance or license (by Pledgors as licensor), except for Pledgee’s interests granted hereunder and under the Existing Security Agreement; and

 

(d)           when this Agreement is filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office (the “Trademark Office”) and the Pledgee has taken the other actions contemplated in this Agreement and by the Financing Agreements, if, and to the extent that a security interest may be perfected in such Collateral under applicable law this Agreement will create a legal and valid perfected and continuing lien on and security interest in the Collateral in favor of Pledgee (except for any non-U.S. Trademarks), enforceable against Pledgors and all third parties, subject to no other prior mortgage, lien, charge, encumbrance, or security or other interest.

 

3.             Covenants.  Each Pledgor will maintain the Collateral, defend the Collateral against the claims of all persons, and will maintain and renew all registrations of the Collateral; notwithstanding the foregoing, Pledgors will not be required to maintain, renew or defend any Collateral which, in Pledgors’ reasonable judgment, no longer has any material economic value.  Pledgors will maintain at least the same standards of quality (which Pledgee has reviewed) for the goods and services in connection with which the Trademarks are used as Pledgors maintained for such goods and services prior to entering into this Agreement.  Pledgee shall have the right to enter upon Pledgors’ premises as provided in the Financing Agreements to monitor such quality standards.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and so long as any Trademark or Future Trademark, in Pledgors’ reasonable judgment, has material economic value, Pledgors shall not permit the expiration, termination or abandonment of such Trademark or Future Trademark without the prior written consent of Pledgee.  If, before the Obligations have been satisfied in full and the Financing Agreements have been terminated, Pledgors shall be licensed to use any new trademark, or become entitled to the benefit of any trademark application or trademark registration, the provisions of Section 1 hereof shall automatically apply thereto and Pledgors shall give Pledgee prompt notice thereof in writing.

 

4.             Use Prior to Default.  Effective until Pledgee’s exercise of its rights and remedies upon an Event of Default under and as defined in the Financing Agreements (an “Event of

 

3

 

Default”), Pledgors shall be entitled to use the Collateral in the ordinary course of its business, subject to the terms and covenants of the Financing Agreements and this Agreement.

 

5.             Remedies Upon Default.  Whenever any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Pledgee shall have all the rights and remedies granted to it in such event by the Financing Agreements, which rights and remedies are specifically incorporated herein by reference and made a part hereof, and any and all rights and remedies of law available to Pledgee.  Pledgee in such event may collect directly any payments due to Pledgors in respect of the Collateral and may sell, license, lease, assign, or otherwise dispose of the Collateral in the manner set forth in the Financing Agreements.  Each Pledgor agrees that, in the event of any disposition of the Collateral upon and during the continuance of any such Event of Default, it will duly execute, acknowledge, and deliver all documents necessary or advisable to record title to the Collateral in any transferee or transferees thereof, including, without limitation, valid, recordable assignments of the Trademarks or Future Trademarks.  In the event Pledgors fail or refuse to execute and deliver such documents, each Pledgor hereby irrevocably appoints Pledgee as its attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, to execute, deliver, and record any such documents on each Pledgor’s behalf as provided in the Financing Agreements.  Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgors may sell any merchandise or services bearing the Trademarks and Future Trademarks in the ordinary course of its business and in a manner consistent with its past practices, until it receives written notice from Pledgee to the contrary.  The preceding sentence shall not limit any right or remedy granted to Pledgee with respect to each Pledgor’s inventory under the Financing Agreements or any other agreement now or hereinafter in effect.

 

6.             Cumulative Remedies.  The rights and remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by law.  The rights and remedies provided herein are intended to be in addition to and not in substitution of the rights and remedies provided by the Financing Agreements or any other agreement or instrument delivered in connection therewith.

 

7.             Amendments and Waivers.  This Agreement may not be modified, supplemented, or amended, or any of its provisions waived except in a writing signed by Pledgors and Pledgee.  Pledgors hereby authorize Pledgee to modify this Agreement by amending Exhibit A hereto to include any Future Trademarks.

 

8.             Waiver of Rights.  No course of dealing between the parties to this Agreement or any failure or delay on the part of any such party in exercising any rights or remedies hereunder shall operate as a waiver of any rights and remedies of such party or any other party, and no single or partial exercise of any rights or remedies by one party hereunder shall operate as a waiver or preclude the exercise of any other rights and remedies of such party or any other party.  No waiver by Pledgee of any breach or default by Pledgors shall be deemed a waiver of any other previous breach or default or of any breach or default occurring thereafter.

 

9.             Assignment.  The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, that no interest herein or in or to the Collateral may be assigned by Pledgors without the prior written

 

4

 

consent of Pledgee; and, provided further, that Pledgee may assign the rights and benefits hereof to any party acquiring any interest in the Obligations or any part thereof.

 

10.           Future Acts.  Until the Obligations shall have been paid in full, Pledgors shall have the duty to make applications on material unregistered, but registrable as trademarks, Collateral owned by each Pledgor in any location where each Pledgor does business, to prosecute such applications diligently, and to preserve and maintain all rights in the material Trademarks and the other material Collateral, except to the extent Pledgors reasonably determine that such Trademarks do not have any material economic value.  Any expenses incurred in connection with such applications and other actions shall be borne by Pledgors.  Pledgors shall not abandon any right to file a trademark application or registration for any trademark, or abandon any such pending trademark application or registration, without the consent of Pledgee, except to the extent that Pledgors reasonably determines that the trademark covered by such application or registration has no material economic value.

 

11.           Enforcement.  Upon Pledgors’ failure to do so after Pledgee’s demand, or upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Pledgee shall have the right but shall in no way be obligated to bring suit in its own name to enforce the Trademarks and Future Trademarks and any license thereunder, having material economic value to the Pledgee, in which event Pledgors shall at the request of Pledgee do any and all lawful acts and execute any and all proper documents required by Pledgee in aid of such enforcement and Pledgors shall promptly, upon demand, reimburse and indemnify Pledgee or its agents for all costs and expenses incurred by Pledgee in the exercise of its rights under this Section 11.

 

12.           Release.  At such time as Pledgors shall completely satisfy all of the non-contingent Obligations, and the Financing Agreements have been terminated, other than upon enforcement of Pledgee’s remedies under the Financing Agreements after an Event of Default, Pledgee will, at Pledgors’ sole cost and expense, execute and deliver to each Pledgor a release or other instrument as may be necessary or proper to release each Pledgor’s lien in the Collateral, subject to any dispositions thereof which may have been made by Pledgee pursuant hereto and as may be necessary to record such release with the U.S. Patents and Trademarks Office, or equivalent authority.

 

13.           Severability.  If any clause or provision of this Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall attach only to such clause or provision, or part thereof, in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such or any other clause or provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

14.           Notices.  All notices, requests and demands to or upon Pledgors or Pledgee under this Agreement shall be given in the manner prescribed by the Financing Agreements.

 

15.           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed, applied, and enforced in accordance with the federal laws of the United States of America applicable to trademarks and the laws of the State of New York, except that no doctrine of choice of law shall be used to apply the laws of any other State or jurisdiction.  The parties agree that all actions or proceedings arising in connection with this Agreement shall be tried and litigated only in the state and federal courts located in the State of New York, New York County, or in the United

 

5

 

States District Court for the Southern District of New York, whichever Pledgee may elect (except that Pledgee shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Pledgor or its property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Pledgee deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against any Pledgor or its property).  PLEDGORS AND PLEDGEE EACH WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION, OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND ANY RIGHT EITHER MAY HAVE TO ASSERT THE DOCTRINE OF FORUM NON CONVENIENS, LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, OR TO OBJECT TO VENUE TO THE EXTENT ANY PROCEEDING IS BROUGHT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS SECTION.

 

16.           Counterparts, etc.  This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall have the same force and effect as the delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.  Any party delivering an executed counterpart of this Agreement by telefacsimile shall also deliver an original executed counterpart, but the failure to do so shall not affect the validity, enforceability or binding effect of this Agreement.

 

17.           Supplement.  This Agreement is a supplement to, and is hereby incorporated into, the Financing Agreements and made a part thereof.

 

18.           Interpretation.  To the extent that any covenants set forth in Section 3 hereto, or representations or warranties set forth in Section 2 hereto are in direct conflict with the terms of any covenants, representations or warranties contained in the Financing Agreements, the terms of this Agreement shall control.  To the extent any other provisions of this Agreement are in direct conflict with the terms of any other provisions of the Financing Agreements, the terms of the Financing Agreements shall control.

 

19.           Acknowledgment and Restatement.

 

(a)           Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that each Pledgor is indebted to Pledgee and Lenders in respect of any obligations, liabilities or indebtedness for loans, advances and letter of credit accommodations to Pledgee under the Existing Loan Agreement, the Existing  Security Agreement or the other Existing  Financing Agreements, together with all interest accrued and accruing thereon, and all fees, costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, all of which are unconditionally owing by each Pledgor to Pledgee without offset, defense, or counterclaim of any kind, nature or description whatsoever. Each Pledgor hereby ratifies, assents, adopts and agrees to pay all of the Obligations arising before, on or after the date hereof.

 

(b)           Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that Pledgee has and shall continue to have, for itself and the benefit of Lenders, valid, enforceable and perfected first priority security interests in and liens upon all of the Collateral heretofore granted to Pledgee pursuant to the Existing  Security Agreement to secure all of the Obligations subject only to liens permitted under the Loan Agreement and the other Financing Agreements.

 

6

 

(c)           Each Pledgor hereby acknowledges, confirms and agrees that: (i) the Existing  Security Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Pledgors and is in full force and effect as of the date hereof; (ii) the agreements and obligations of Pledgors contained in the Existing  Security Agreement constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of Pledgors enforceable against it in accordance with the terms thereof, and Pledgors have no valid defense, offset or counterclaim to the enforcement of such obligations; and (iii) Pledgee and Lenders are entitled to all of the rights, remedies and benefits provided for in the Existing  Security Agreement.

 

(d)           Except as otherwise stated in Section 19(b) hereof and in this Section 19(d), as of the date hereof, the terms, conditions, agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in the Existing  Security Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety, and as so amended and restated, are replaced and superseded by the terms, conditions agreements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, except that nothing herein shall impair or adversely affect the continuation of the liability of Pledgors for the obligations or the security interests and liens heretofore granted, pledged or assigned to Pledgee for itself and the benefit of Lenders.  The amendment and restatement contained herein shall not, in any manner, be construed to constitute payment of, or impair, limit, cancel or extinguish, or constitute a novation in respect of, the indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities of Pledgors evidenced by or arising under the Existing  Security Agreement and any of the other Existing  Financing Agreements to which Pledgors are a party, and the liens and security interests securing such indebtedness and other obligations and liabilities shall not in any manner be impaired, limited, terminated, waived or released.
