Section 5. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Administration.  The Award shall be administered by the Committee.  The Committee shall have authority to interpret the Award, the Award Certificate and the Master Agreement, to prescribe rules and regulations relating to the Award, the Award Certificate and the Master Agreement, to take any other actions it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Award, the Award Certificate and the Master Agreement and shall retain all general authority granted to it under Section 2.2 of the
Plan.  At the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall approve the Final Performance-Vested Number of RSUs awarded to a Participant under an Award, which shall be the Performance-Vested Component Number of RSUs as increased or decreased by the Committee in its sole discretion based on such factors as it deems appropriate.

 

(b) Amendment.  The terms of the Award, the Award Certificate and the Master Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Committee in its sole discretion in any manner that it deems appropriate; provided, however, that no such amendment shall adversely affect in a material manner any right of a Participant under any outstanding Award without the written consent of such Participant.

 

(c) Adjustments.  Upon the occurrence of certain events relating to the Company’s stock contemplated by Section 10.2 of the Plan (including, without limitation, any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, Common Stock dividend, Common Stock split, reverse Common Stock split or other similar transaction), the Committee shall make adjustments in the number of RSUs then outstanding and the number and kind of securities that may be issued in respect of the Award.  No such adjustment shall be
made with respect to any ordinary cash dividend paid on the Common Stock.  Furthermore, the Committee shall adjust the Performance Requirements referenced in Schedule A to the extent (if any) it determines that the adjustment is necessary or advisable to preserve the intended incentives and benefits to reflect any material change in corporate capitalization, any material corporate transaction (such as a reorganization, combination, separation, merger, acquisition, or any combination of the foregoing), or any complete or partial liquidation of the Company, or any other similar special circumstances.

 

(d) Participant is Unsecured General Creditor.  The Participant and the Participant’s heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, interest, or claims in any specific property or assets of the Company.  Assets of the Company shall not be held under any trust for the benefit of the Participant or the Participant’s heirs, successors, or assigns, or held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under the Award, the Master
Agreement or the Plan.  Any and all of the Company’s assets shall be, and remain, the general unrestricted assets of the Company.  The Company’s sole obligation under the Award shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay the Participant in the future, subject to the conditions and provisions of the Award, the Master Agreement and the Plan.

 

(e) No Transferability; No Assignment.  Neither a Participant nor any other person shall have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate, alienate or convey in advance of actual receipt, the RSUs or the shares of Common Stock and/or amounts, if any, payable under the Award, which are, and all rights to which are expressly declared to be, unassignable and non-transferable.  No part of the RSUs or the shares of Common Stock and/or
amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be subject to seizure, attachment, garnishment or sequestration for the payment of any debts, judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or any other person, be transferable by operation of law in the event of a Participant’s or any other person’s bankruptcy or insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property settlement or otherwise.

 

 

  

8

  

 

(f) No Right to Continued Employment.  The terms and conditions of the Award, the Award Certificate, the Master Agreement and the Plan shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between the Company and a Participant.  Such employment is hereby acknowledged to be an “at will” employment relationship that can be terminated at any time for any reason, or no reason, with or without cause, and with or without notice, except as otherwise provided in a written employment
agreement.  Nothing in the Award, the Award Certificate, the Master Agreement or the Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be retained in the service of the Company as an employee or to interfere with the right of the Company to discipline or discharge a Participant at any time.

 

(g) Limitation on Shareholder Rights.  A Participant shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company, no dividend rights and no voting rights with respect to the RSUs and any shares of Common Stock underlying or issuable in respect of such RSUs until such shares of Common Stock are actually issued to and held of record by the Participant.  No adjustments will be made for dividends or other rights of a holder for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance of the shares of Common
Stock.

 

(h) Tax Withholding.

 

(i) Regardless of any action the Company takes with respect to any or all federal, state or local income tax, employment tax or other tax related items (“Tax Related Items”), the Participant acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax Related Items associated with the RSUs is and remains the Participant’s responsibility and that the Company: (A) makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, including, but not limited to, the grant or vesting of the RSUs, the delivery of the
shares of Common Stock, the subsequent sale of shares of Common Stock acquired at vesting and the receipt of any Dividend Equivalent Rights; and (B) does not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate the Participant’s liability for Tax Related Items.  Further, if Participant has relocated to a different jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

 

(ii) Prior to the relevant taxable event, the Participant shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company, in its sole discretion, to satisfy all withholding and payment on account obligations for Tax Related Items of the Company.  In this regard, the Participant authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax Related Items legally payable by the Participant with respect to the Award by withholding in shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable to the Participant, provided that the Company withholds only the amount
of shares of Common Stock necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount using the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Conversion Date.  Participant shall pay to the Company any amount of Tax Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold as a result of the Award that are not satisfied by the previously described method.  The Company may refuse to deliver the shares of Common Stock to the Participant if the Participant fails to comply with Participant’s obligations in connection with the Tax Related Items as described in this Section.

 

 

  

9

  

 

(i) Compensation Recovery Policy.  The compensation under the Award shall be subject to being recovered under the Company’s compensation recovery policy, if any, or any similar policy that the Company may adopt from time to time.  For avoidance of doubt, compensation recovery rights to shares of Common Stock issued under the Award shall extend to any proceeds realized by the Participant upon the sale or other transfer of such shares of Common Stock.

 

(j) Section 409A Compliance.  The Award and the shares of Common Stock and amounts payable under the Award are intended to comply with the requirements of Section 409A so as to prevent the inclusion in gross income of any benefits accrued hereunder in a taxable year prior to the taxable year or years in which such amount would otherwise be actually distributed or made available to the Participants.  The Plan shall be administered and interpreted to the extent possible in a manner consistent with that
intent.  Notwithstanding the terms of Section 3, to the extent that a distribution to a Participant who is a “Specified Employee” (as defined under Section 409A) at the time of his or her Termination of Employment (other than by reason of death or Disability, but including by reason of Retirement) is required to be delayed by six months pursuant to Section 409A, such distribution shall be made on the first day of the seventh month following the Participant’s Termination of Employment.  The Company shall not be liable to any Participant for any payment made under this Plan that is determined to result in an additional tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A, nor for reporting in good faith any payment made under this Agreement as an amount includible in gross income under Section 409A.

 

(k) Section 280G of the Code.  In the event that the accelerated vesting of the RSUs or the amounts payable under the Award, together with all other payments and the value of any benefit received or to be received by the Participant, would result in all or a portion of such payment being subject to excise tax under Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Participant’s payment shall be either (a) the full payment or (b) such lesser amount that would result in no portion of the payment
being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state, and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax, results in the receipt by the Participant, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the payment may be taxable under Section 4999 of the Code.  Any such reduction shall be made by the Company in compliance with all applicable legal authority, including Section 409A.  All determinations required to be made under this Section shall be made by the nationally recognized accounting firm which is the Company’s outside auditor immediately prior to the event triggering the payments that are subject to the Excise Tax, which firm must be reasonably acceptable to the Participant (the “Accounting Firm”).  The
Company shall cause the Accounting Firm to provide detailed supporting calculations of its determinations to the Company and the Participant.  Notice must be given to the Accounting Firm within 15 business days after an event entitling the Participant to a payment under Section 3.  All fees and expenses of the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company.  The Accounting Firm’s determinations must be made with substantial authority (within the meaning of Section 6662 of the Code).

 

(l) Governing Law.  The implementation and interpretation of the Award and the Master Agreement shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to the conflicts of law provisions thereof, except for mandatorily applicable provisions of Maryland law.

EXAMPLE  (for illustration purposes only)

 

Suppose a Participant received an award and his or her Award Certificate provided for a Performance-Vested Component Number of RSUs at Target of 1,000, and a Performance Component Range of RSUs as follows:

	
Total Number

	
Target Number

	
Maximum Number

	
800

	
1,000

	
1,200

The Performance Requirements, Weightings and Performance Goals were as set forth above in this Schedule A.

 

 

Suppose the performance results for the Performance Period are as follows:

	
Performance Requirement

	
Performance Result

	
Level Achieved

	
Home Properties TSR

	
9%

	
Target

	
Relative NAREIT All Equity REIT Index TSR

	
Home Properties TSR is greater than 250 bps above the index return

	
Maximum

	
Relative NAREIT Apartment Index TSR

	
Home Properties TSR is within 350 bps below the index return

	
Threshold

 

 

Home Properties TSR Performance Requirement Number of RSUs would be 500 (1,000 at Target x 50% Weighting).

Relative NAREIT All Equity REIT Index TSR Performance Requirement Number of RSUs would be 300 (1,200 at Maximum x 25% Weighting).

Relative NAREIT Apartment Index TSR Performance Requirement Number of RSUs would be 200 (800 at Threshold x 25% Weighting).

Performance-Vested Component Number of RSUs would be 1,000 (500 + 300 + 200).

Once repaid, amounts constituting the Commitments may not be reborrowed.  The Loans may from time to time be LIBOR Loans or Alternate Base Rate Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.1(b) and 2.6.
(b)    Procedure for Borrowing.  The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in writing in the form of a Borrowing Notice (which notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, (a) three (3) Business Days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of LIBOR Loans, or (b) one (1) Business Day prior to the anticipated Closing Date, in the case of Alternate Base Rate Loans) requesting that the Lenders make the Loans on the Closing Date.

notice shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one (1) month.

Upon receipt of such Borrowing Notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof.

Each Lender may, at its option, fulfill its obligation to make LIBOR Loans by causing a foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to fund such LIBOR Loans; provided, however, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay Loans in accordance with the terms hereof or increase the costs to the Borrower payable hereunder in respect of LIBOR Loans.

The Loans shall be subject to mandatory prepayment as provided in Section 2.7 and acceleration as provided in Article 7.  Any mandatory prepayments of the Loans pursuant to Sections 2.7(d), (e), (f) and (g) shall reduce, on a pro-rata basis the remaining required and scheduled amortization installment payments set forth above.

each applicable Interest Payment Date, on the Maturity Date, on the date of a conversion of such LIBOR Loan to an Alternate Base Rate Loan and on the date of any prepayment.  The Administrative Agent shall determine the applicable LIBOR for each Interest Period as soon as practicable on the date when such determination is to be made in respect of such Interest Period and shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate so determined.  Such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(b)    In the case of an Alternate Base Rate Loan, interest shall be payable at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365/366 days, as the case may be, during such times as the Alternate Base Rate is based upon the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.  Interest shall be payable on each Alternate Base Rate Loan in arrears on each applicable Interest Payment Date, on the Maturity Date and on the date of any prepayment.
(c)    Interest in respect of any Loan hereunder shall accrue from and including the date such Loan is made to but excluding the date on which such Loan is paid or converted to a Loan of a different Type.
(d)    Anything in this Credit Agreement or the Notes to the contrary notwithstanding (but subject to Section 2.12), the interest rate on the Loans shall in no event be in excess of the maximum permitted by Applicable Law.
SECTION 2.4    Fees.  The Borrower agrees to pay all fees that are then due and payable pursuant hereto or pursuant to any fee letter agreement executed by any Credit Party with respect to the Facility.
SECTION 2.5    Default Interest; Alternate Rate of Interest.
(a)    If an Event of Default shall exist, then the rate of interest on all outstanding Loans shall be increased by 2.00% per annum and all other Obligations shall accrue interest from the date due at the rate for Alternate Base Rate Loans plus 2.00% per annum.  
(b)    In the event, and on each occasion, that two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan:
(i)    the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for such Interest Period, or 
(ii)    the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Required Lenders that LIBOR determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,
the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the 

42

Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter.  If such notice is given (x) any LIBOR Loans under the Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Alternate Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans under the Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to LIBOR Loans shall be continued as Alternate Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding LIBOR Loans under the Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period, to Alternate Base Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further LIBOR Loans under the Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the Facility to LIBOR Loans.
SECTION 2.6    Continuation and Conversion of Loans.  The Borrower shall have the right, at any time, (i) to convert any LIBOR Loan or portion thereof to an Alternate Base Rate Loan or to continue such LIBOR Loan or a portion thereof for a successive Interest Period, or (ii) to convert any Alternate Base Rate Loan or a portion thereof to a LIBOR Loan, subject to the following:
(a)    the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent prior written, facsimile or telephonic (promptly confirmed in writing, including via electronic mail) notice of each continuation or conversion hereunder (i) at least three (3) Business Days for continuation as or conversion to a LIBOR Loan and (ii) one (1) Business Day for conversion to an Alternate Base Rate Loan; such notice shall be irrevocable and to be effective, must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day required;
(b)    unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent, no Event of Default or Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of any conversion to a LIBOR Loan or continuation of any such LIBOR Loan into a subsequent Interest Period;
(c)    no Alternate Base Rate Loan may be converted to a LIBOR Loan and no LIBOR Loan may be continued as a LIBOR Loan if, after such conversion or continuance, and after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of Loans, an aggregate of more than ten (10) separate LIBOR Loans would be outstanding hereunder (for purposes of determining the number of such Loans outstanding, Loans with different Interest Periods shall be counted as different Loans even if made on the same date); 
(d)    if fewer than all Loans at the time outstanding shall be continued or converted, such continuation or conversion shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective Percentage of the principal amount of such Loans held by the Lenders immediately prior to such continuation or conversion;
(e)    the aggregate principal amount of Loans continued as or converted to LIBOR Loans as part of the same Borrowing shall be in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000;
(f)    accrued interest on the LIBOR Loans (or portion thereof) being continued shall be paid by the Borrower at the time of continuation;
(g)    the Interest Period with respect to a new LIBOR Loan effected by a 

43

continuation or conversion shall commence on the date of such continuation or conversion;
(h)    if a LIBOR Loan is converted to another Type of Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto, the amounts required by Section 2.7(b) shall be paid as provided in such Section;
(i)    each request for a continuation as or conversion to a LIBOR Loan which fails to state an applicable Interest Period shall be deemed to be a request for an Interest Period of one (1) month; and
(j)    in the event that the Borrower shall not give the Administrative Agent a notice to continue or convert any LIBOR Loan as provided above, then such Loan (unless repaid) shall automatically be converted to an Alternate Base Rate Loan at the expiration of the then current Interest Period.
The Administrative Agent shall, after it receives notice from the Borrower, promptly give the Lenders notice of any continuation or conversion.
SECTION 2.7    Voluntary and Mandatory Prepayment of Loans; Reimbursement of Lenders.
(a)    (i) Subject to the terms of Section 2.7(b) below, the Borrower shall have the right at its option at any time and from time to time to prepay without premium or penalty (except as set forth in clause (ii) below) (A) any Alternate Base Rate Loan, in whole or in part, upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written, telephonic (promptly confirmed in writing, including via electronic mail) or facsimile notice to the Administrative Agent given prior to 2:00 p.m. New York City time, in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 if prepaid in part, or the remaining balance of such Loan if prepaid in full, and (B) any LIBOR Loan, in whole or in part, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written, telephonic (promptly confirmed in writing, including via electronic mail) or facsimile notice given prior to 2:00 p.m. New York City time, in a minimum aggregate principal amount of $250,000 or such greater amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 if prepaid in part, or the remaining balance of such Loan if prepaid in full.  Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, each Loan to be prepaid and the principal amount thereof, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Loan in the amount and on the date stated therein.  All prepayments under this Section 2.7(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but excluding) the date of prepayment. 
(ii)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (A) any prepayment of the Loans effected on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date with the proceeds of a Repricing Transaction described in clause (1) of the definition thereof below shall be accompanied by a fee equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the Loans prepaid, and (B) if in connection with a Repricing Transaction described in clause (2) of the definition thereof below on or prior to such first anniversary of the Closing Date, any Lender is replaced as a result of its being a non-consenting Lender in respect of such Repricing Transaction pursuant to Section 2.14(i), such Lender shall be entitled to the 1.00% fee provided under this Section 2.7(a)(ii) as to its 

44

Loans so assigned.  A “Repricing Transaction” means (1) any prepayment of the Loans using proceeds of Indebtedness for which the interest rate payable thereon on the date of such prepayment is lower than LIBOR on the date of such prepayment plus the Applicable Margin with respect to the Loans on the date of such prepayment, provided that the primary purpose of such prepayment is to refinance Loans at a lower interest rate or (2) any repricing of the Loans pursuant to an amendment hereto resulting in the interest rate payable thereon on the date of such amendment being lower than LIBOR on the date of such prepayment plus the Applicable Margin with respect to the Loans on the date of such prepayment. 
(b)    The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender on demand for any loss, cost or expense incurred or to be incurred by any such Lender in the reemployment of the funds released (i) by any prepayment (for any reason) of any LIBOR Loan if such Loan is repaid prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, or (ii) in the event that, after the Borrower delivers a notice of Borrowing under Section 2.1(b), or a notice of continuation or conversion of a Borrowing under Section 2.6(a) in respect of LIBOR Loans, such Loan is not made, converted to or continued as a LIBOR Loan on the first day of the Interest Period specified in such notice of Borrowing for any reason other than (A) a suspension or limitation under Section 2.5(b) of the right of the Borrower to select a LIBOR Loan, (B) a breach by any such Lender of its obligation to fund such Borrowing when it is otherwise required to do so hereunder, or (C) a repayment resulting from a conversion required by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.9(a).  Such loss shall be the amount as reasonably determined by such Lender as the excess, if any, of (I) the amount of interest which would have accrued to such Lender on the amount so paid or not borrowed, continued or converted at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.3, for the period from the date of such payment or failure to borrow, continue or convert to the last day (x) in the case of a payment prior to the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan, of the then current Interest Period for such Loan, or (y) in the case of a failure to borrow, continue or convert, of the Interest Period for such Loan which would have commenced on the date of such failure to borrow, continue or convert, over (II) the amount realized or to be realized by such Lender in reemploying the funds not advanced or the funds received in prepayment or realized from the Loan not so continued or converted during the period referred to above at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for Dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the London Interbank Market.  Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the amount of such loss, cost or expense as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amounts shown on such certificate within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate.  The Administrative Agent or any affected Lender is hereby authorized (but not obligated) to debit any deposit account of any Credit Party now or hereafter maintained by such Credit Party at such entity (including, without limitation, the JPMorgan Clearing Account, any Cash Collateral Account or any Collection Account) to pay any such amounts that are not paid when due.
(c)    In the event the Borrower fails to prepay any Loan on the date specified in any prepayment notice delivered pursuant to Section 2.7(a), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any actual loss incurred by such Lender as a result of such failure to prepay, including, 

45

without limitation, any loss, cost or expenses incurred by reason of the acquisition of deposits or other funds by such Lender to fulfill deposit obligations incurred in anticipation of such prepayment.  Each Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent from time to time one or more certificates setting forth the calculation of the amount of such loss, cost or expense as determined by such Lender, which certificates shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amounts shown on such certificate within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of such certificate.  The Administrative Agent or any affected Lender is hereby authorized (but not obligated) to debit any deposit account of any Credit Party now or hereafter maintained by such Credit Party at such entity (including, without limitation, the JPMorgan Clearing Account, any Cash Collateral Account or any Collection Account) to pay any such amounts that are not paid when due.
(d)    The Borrower shall apply 100% of Net Available Proceeds promptly upon receipt thereof to prepay the Loans.
(e)    Not later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower (commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2012), the Borrower shall calculate Adjusted Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter and shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 50% of such Adjusted Excess Cash Flow.  Not later than the date on which the Borrower makes the foregoing payment (or if no such payment is required, then not later than the end of the foregoing 60-day period), the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of Adjusted Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail.
(f)    On the date of the prepayment set forth in Section 2.7(e), but in no case later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower (commencing with the quarter ending March 31, 2012), the Borrower shall calculate Breaking Dawn Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter and shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 75% of such Breaking Dawn Cash.  Not later than the date on which the Borrower makes the foregoing payment (or if no such payment is required, then not later than the end of the foregoing 60-day period), the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of Breaking Dawn Cash Flow for such fiscal quarter and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail.
(g)    On the date of each of the prepayments set forth in Sections 2.7(e) and (f) above (commencing with the payments made in respect of the quarter ending June 30, 2012), but in no case later than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to 100% of the amount by which, after giving effect to the prepayments in Sections 2.7(e) and (f) above, available cash of the Credit Parties (excluding Unreleased Picture Expense Reserve Amounts and New Picture Expense Reserve Amounts) exceeds the following thresholds on the last day of such quarter (after giving effect to any amortization payment on such date) or on the date of such payment (using the date that results in a smaller excess, and the amount of such excess shall be “Excess Available Cash”): (i) for each quarter through and including the quarter ending June 30, 2013, $75,000,000, (ii) for each quarter thereafter through and including the quarter ending June 30, 2014, $50,000,000, and (iii) for each quarter thereafter, 

46

$35,000,000.  Not later than each date on which the Borrower makes each of the foregoing payments (or if no such payment is required, then not later than the end of the foregoing 60-day period), the Borrower will deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate signed by an Authorized Officer of the Borrower setting forth the amount, if any, of the Excess Available Cash on such date of determination and the calculation thereof in reasonable detail.
(h)    If at any time after December 31, 2014, the ratio of (i) available cash of the Credit Parties (excluding Unreleased Picture Expense Reserve Amounts and New Picture Expense Reserve Amounts) to (ii) outstanding Loans exceeds 3.0 to 1.0, the Borrower shall prepay all outstanding Obligations.
(i)    The Borrower shall apply 100% of the proceeds of any initial public offering of Equity Interests in the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the Borrower or any holding company parent of the Borrower (as applicable, the “Offeror”) that are payable in respect of Equity Interests issued in such offering by the Offeror (net of reasonable and customary transaction costs and excluding proceeds that such entity or holders of Equity Interests are not entitled to receive) promptly following completion thereof to prepay the Loans.
(j)    All outstanding Obligations shall be paid in full on the Maturity Date.
(k)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (i) all proceeds that the Credit Parties are entitled to receive from the distribution or other exploitation or disposition of a Picture (but subject to any third-party rights under any Co-Financing Intercreditor Agreement, the LG Intercreditor Agreement and any other Interparty Agreement), shall be applied to satisfy the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 8.7 and (ii) all other payments shall be applied to satisfy the Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 12.2.
(l)    Unless otherwise designated in writing by the Borrower, all prepayments of principal shall be applied to the applicable principal payment set forth in this Section 2.7, first to that amount of such applicable principal payment then maintained as Alternate Base Rate Loans by the Borrower, and then, to that amount of such applicable principal payment maintained as LIBOR Loans by the Borrower in order of the scheduled expiry of Interest Periods with respect thereto.
(m)    All prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to but not including the date of prepayment.
(n)    If, on any day on which Loans are required to be prepaid (each, a “Prepayment Date”), the aggregate principal amount of the Loans required to be so prepaid would exceed the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Loans that constitute Alternate Base Rate Loans, and no Default or Event of Default is then continuing, then on such Prepayment Date the Borrower may, at its option, deposit Dollars into the Cash Collateral Account in an amount equal to such excess.  If the Borrower makes such deposit, then (i) only the outstanding Alternate Base Rate Loans shall be required to be prepaid on such Prepayment Date, and (ii) on the last day of each Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Loan ending after such Prepayment Date, the Administrative 

47

Agent is irrevocably authorized and directed to apply funds from the Cash Collateral Account, if any (and liquidate investments held in such Cash Collateral Account as necessary) to prepay LIBOR Loans for which the Interest Period is then ending until the aggregate principal amount of all Loans prepaid pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above equals the aggregate principal amount of Loans which would have been required to be prepaid on such Prepayment Date but for the operation of this Section 2.7(n).
(o)    Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Article 2, should any payment or prepayment of principal of or interest on the Loans or any other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date of such payment or prepayment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of a payment or prepayment of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.
(p)    On the date of payment of the Additional Amount (as defined in Section 2.2(a)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement), Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to $20,000,000 minus the Additional Amount actually paid pursuant to Section 2.2(a)(iii) of the Purchase Agreement; provided that such prepayment must be made with the proceeds of additional cash equity contributions made to a Credit Party from a non-Credit Party after the Closing Date.
SECTION 2.8    Increased Costs.
(a)    If any Change in Law shall:
(i)    impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the LIBOR); or
(ii)    impose on any Lender or the London Interbank Market any other condition affecting this Credit Agreement or LIBOR Loans made by such Lender;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase, from the conditions that exist on the date hereof, the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender  for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered; provided, however, that (x) the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such compensation to any Lender  on account of any Change in Law affecting or altering the Excluded Taxes, and (y) any amounts in respect of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes shall be governed exclusively by Section 2.11.
(b)    If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Credit Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s 

48

policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender  such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.  
(c)    A certificate of a Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company the changes as a result of which such amounts are due and the manner of computing such amounts, as specified in Section 2.10(a) or (b) above (as the case may be) shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.  The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)    Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any amounts incurred more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 270-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.  The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
(e)    Each Lender agrees that after it becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition that (i) would cause it to incur any increased cost hereunder or render it unable to perform its agreements hereunder for the reasons specifically set forth in Section 2.5(b), this Section 2.8 or Section 2.9, or (ii) would require the Borrower to pay an increased amount under Section 2.5(b), this Section 2.8 or Section 2.11, it will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify the Borrower of such event or condition and, to the extent not inconsistent with such Lender’s internal policies, will use commercially reasonable efforts to make, fund or maintain the affected Loans of such Lender through another Lending Office of such Lender if as a result thereof the additional monies which would otherwise be required to be paid or the reduction of amounts receivable by such Lender thereunder in respect of such Loans would be materially reduced, or such inability to perform would cease to exist, or the increased costs which would otherwise be required to be paid in respect of such Loans pursuant to Section 2.5(b), this Section 2.8 or Section 2.11 would be materially reduced or taxes or other amounts otherwise payable under Section 2.5(b), this Section 2.8 or Section 2.11 would be materially reduced, and if, as determined by such Lender, in its sole discretion, the making, funding or maintaining of such Loans through such other Lending Office would not otherwise adversely affect such Loans or such Lender.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, a failure on the part of any Lender to provide notice or take any other action pursuant to this Section 2.8(e) shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to make any payments or deductions required by this Article 2.  The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
SECTION 2.9    Change in Legality.
(a)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Credit Agreement, if any change after the date hereof in any Applicable Law, guideline or order, or in the 

49

interpretation thereof by any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any LIBOR Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to a LIBOR Loan, then, by written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such Lender may (i) declare that LIBOR Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder for as long as such condition may be continuing, and/or (ii) require that, subject to Section 2.7(b), all outstanding LIBOR Loans made by it be converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans, whereupon all of such LIBOR Loans shall automatically be converted to Alternate Base Rate Loans, as of the effective date of such notice as provided in Section 2.9(b) below.  Such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any subsequent LIBOR Borrowing shall instead be an Alternate Base Rate Loan unless such declaration is subsequently withdrawn.
(b)    A notice to the Borrower by any Lender pursuant to Section 2.9(a) above shall be effective for purposes of clause (ii) thereof, if lawful, on the last day of the current Interest Period for each outstanding LIBOR Loan; and in all other cases, on the date of receipt of such notice by the Borrower.
SECTION 2.10    Manner of Payments.  Subject to Section 2.13, all payments of principal and interest by the Borrower in respect of any Loans made to it shall be remitted to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Loans and all Borrowings of any Loans by the Borrower hereunder shall be made by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Share thereof.  All payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional obligations not subject to offset, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction of any kind and shall be made in Dollars in Federal or other immediately available funds at the Funding Office for credit to the JPMorgan Clearing Account (with a specific reference to “Summit Entertainment, LLC”) no later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date on which such payment shall be due.  
SECTION 2.11    Taxes.
(a)    Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however, that if the Borrower shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.11) the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions, and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
(b)    In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law.
(c)    The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 

50

2.11) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority (except for any interest, penalties, or expenses payable by the Administrative Agent or a Lender if caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment).  A certificate setting forth the nature and amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d)    As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(e)    Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments under this Credit Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), on or prior to the Initial Date with respect to such Foreign Lender (and from time to time thereafter at the time or times prescribed by Applicable Law or upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), two (2) copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit M and an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, duly executed and properly completed by such Foreign Lender.
(f)    Any Lender that is not a Foreign Lender and has not otherwise established to the reasonable satisfaction of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is an exempt recipient (as defined in section 6049(b)(4) of the Code and the regulations thereunder) shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the Initial Date with respect to such Lender (and from time to time thereafter as prescribed by Applicable Law or upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), a duly executed and properly completed copy of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto).
(g)    If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of or any credit for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11, it shall pay over such refund or credit to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.11 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund or credit), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund or credit); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental 

51

Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund or credit to such Governmental Authority.  This Section 2.11 shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
SECTION 2.12    Interest Adjustments.
(a)    If the provisions of this Credit Agreement or any Note would at any time require payment by the Borrower to a Lender of any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount then permitted by the law applicable to any Loan, the interest payments to that Lender shall be reduced to the extent necessary so that such Lender shall not receive interest in excess of such maximum amount.  If, as a result of the foregoing, a Lender receives interest payments hereunder or under a Note in an amount less than the amount otherwise provided hereunder, such deficit (hereinafter called the “Interest Deficit”) will, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, cumulate and will be carried forward (without interest) until the termination of this Credit Agreement.  Interest otherwise payable to a Lender hereunder or under a Note for any subsequent period shall be increased by the maximum amount of the Interest Deficit that may be so added without causing such Lender to receive interest in excess of the maximum amount then permitted by the law applicable to the Loans.
(b)    The amount of any Interest Deficit relating to a particular Loan or Note shall be treated as a prepayment penalty and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, be paid in full at the time of any optional prepayment by the Borrower to the Lenders of all the Loans at that time outstanding pursuant to Section 2.7(a).  The amount of any Interest Deficit relating to a particular Loan or Note at the time of the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of the Loans at that time outstanding (other than an optional prepayment thereof pursuant to Section 2.7(a)), shall be canceled and not paid.
SECTION 2.13    Defaulting Lenders.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Credit Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)    The Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification pursuant to Section 13.10(a)); provided, that any amendment, waiver or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender or all Defaulting Lenders differently than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.
(b)    So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 12.3 but excluding payments to the Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 13.10(b)) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, 

52

be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its Pro Rata Share as required by this Credit Agreement, (iii) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Credit Agreement, (iv) fourth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Credit Agreement, and (v) fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that if such payment is a prepayment of the principal amount of any outstanding Loans, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the outstanding Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any outstanding Loans of, or reimbursement obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender.
(c)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts which would otherwise be payable to the Defaulting Lender shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be applied to satisfy in full the Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with the other provisions of this Credit Agreement with the balance, if any, being applied to the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender.
(d)    Neither the provisions of this Section 2.13, nor the provisions of any other Section of this Credit Agreement relating to a Defaulting Lender, are intended by the parties to constitute liquidated damages.  Subject to the limitations contained in Section 13.8 regarding special, indirect, consequential and punitive damages, each of the Administrative Agent, each non-Defaulting Lender and each Credit Party hereby reserves its respective rights to proceed against such Defaulting Lender for any damages incurred as a result of it becoming a Defaulting Lender hereunder.
SECTION 2.14    Replacement of Lenders.  If any Lender (i) requests compensation under Section 2.5(b), 2.8 or 2.11, or (ii) becomes a Defaulting Lender, or (iii) is replaced pursuant to Section 13.10(d), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort and upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 13.3), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents to another Lender or a replacement lender approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld), which shall assume such obligations and which accepts such assignment; provided, that (x) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees, and all other amounts then payable to it hereunder from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (y) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.8 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.5(b) or 2.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payment on an ongoing basis.  No Lender shall be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, 

53

prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.  No such replacement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender or of any rights that such replaced Lender shall have against the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender.

(f)    Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 8.3, receivables paid in a manner permitted by the Services Agreement shall not violate this Section 8.3; provided, that this shall not affect the Servicer’s obligation to pay to the Borrower such proceeds as required by the Services Agreement.
SECTION 8.4    Credit Parties to Hold in Trust.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each of the Credit Parties will, upon receipt by it of any revenue, income, profits or other sums in which a security interest is granted by this Article 8, payable pursuant to any agreement or otherwise, or of any check, draft, note, trade acceptance or other instrument evidencing an obligation to pay any such sum, hold the sum or instrument in trust for the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), segregate such sum or instrument from their own assets and forthwith, without any notice, demand or other action whatsoever (all notices, demands, or other actions on the part of the Secured Parties being expressly waived), endorse, transfer and deliver any such sums or instruments or both, to the Administrative Agent to be applied to the repayment of the Obligations in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.7.
SECTION 8.5    Collections, etc.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, in its name (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or in the name of any Credit Party or otherwise, demand, sue for, collect or receive any money or property at any time payable or receivable on account of or in exchange for, or make any compromise or settlement deemed desirable with respect to, any of the Collateral, but shall be under no obligation to do so, or the Administrative Agent may extend the time of payment, arrange for payment in installments, or otherwise modify the terms of, or release, any of the Collateral, without thereby incurring responsibility to, or discharging or otherwise affecting any liability of, any Credit Party.  The Administrative Agent will not be required to take any steps to preserve any rights against parties with prior claims on the Collateral.  If any Credit Party fails to make any payment or take any action required hereunder which payment or action the Administrative Agent has requested in writing to the Borrower to be made or taken, the Administrative Agent may make such payments and take all such actions as the Administrative Agent reasonably deems necessary to protect the Administrative Agent’s (on behalf of the Secured Parties) security interests 

106

in the Collateral and the value thereof, and the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized (without limiting the general nature of the authority hereinabove conferred) to pay, purchase, contest or compromise any Liens that in the judgment of the Administrative Agent appear to be equal to, prior to, or superior to, the security interest of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) in the Collateral (other than Specified Permitted Encumbrances) and any Liens not expressly permitted by this Credit Agreement.
SECTION 8.6    Possession, Sale of Collateral, etc.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may enter upon the premises of any Credit Party or wherever the Collateral may be, and take possession of the Collateral (subject, in each case, to the terms of any applicable Interparty Agreement, Co-Financing Venture Interparty Agreement or Co-Financing Intercreditor Agreement), and may demand and receive such possession from any Person who has possession thereof, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may take such measures as they reasonably deem necessary or proper for the care or protection thereof, including the right to remove all or any portion of the Collateral, and with or without taking such possession may sell or cause to be sold, whenever the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall decide, in one or more sales or parcels, at such prices as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may reasonably deem appropriate, and for cash or on credit or for future delivery, without assumption of any credit risk, all or any portion of the Collateral, at any broker’s board or at public or private sale, without demand of performance but with at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to the Credit Parties of the time and place of any such public sale or sales (which notice the Credit Parties hereby agree is reasonable) and with such other notices as may be required by Applicable Law and cannot be waived, and none of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have any liability should the proceeds resulting from a private sale be less than the proceeds realizable from a public sale, and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties or any other Person may be the purchaser of all or any portion of the Collateral so sold and thereafter hold the same absolutely, free (to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law) from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity of redemption, of any Credit Party, any such demand, notice, claim, right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released.  At any sale or sales made pursuant to this Article 8, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may bid for or purchase, free (to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law) from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity of redemption, of any Credit Party, any such demand, notice, claim, right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released, any part of or all of the Collateral offered for sale, and may make any payment on account thereof by using any claim for moneys then due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders by any Credit Party hereunder as a credit against the purchase price.  The Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) shall in any such sale make no representations or warranties with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof, and none of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be chargeable with any of the obligations or liabilities of any Credit Party.  Each Credit Party hereby agrees that (i) it will indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims with respect to the Collateral asserted before the taking of actual possession or control of the relevant Collateral by  the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Article 8, or arising out of any act of, or omission to act on the part of, any Person (other than the Administrative Agent or the Lenders) prior to such taking of actual possession or control by the Administrative Agent (whether asserted before or after such taking of possession or control), or 

107

arising out of any act on the part of any Credit Party or its Affiliates or agents before or after the commencement of such actual possession or control by the Administrative Agent, but excluding therefrom all claims with respect to the Collateral resulting from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (y) any claims with respect to the Collateral asserted against an indemnified party by a Credit Party in which such Credit Party is the prevailing party; and (ii) none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have any liability or obligation to any Credit Party arising out of any such claim except for acts of willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Subject only to the lawful rights of third parties, any Laboratory which has possession of any of the Collateral is hereby constituted and appointed by the Credit Parties as pledgeholder for the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) and, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, each such pledgeholder is hereby authorized (to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law) to sell all or any portion of the Collateral upon the order and direction of the Administrative Agent, and each Credit Party hereby waives any and all claims, for damages or otherwise, for any action taken by such pledgeholder in accordance with the terms of the UCC not otherwise waived hereunder.  In any action hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, if permitted by Applicable Law, to the appointment of a receiver without notice, to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral and to exercise such powers as a court shall confer upon the receiver.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to apply, without prior notice to any of the Credit Parties, any cash or cash items constituting Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the manner set forth Section 8.7.
SECTION 8.7    Application of Proceeds after Event of Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the balances in the JPMorgan Clearing Account, the Collection Account(s), the Cash Collateral Account(s) and in any other account of any Credit Party, all other income on the Collateral, and all other proceeds of the Collateral pursuant hereto (subject, in each case, to the terms of any applicable Interparty Agreement, Co-Financing Venture Interparty Agreement, Co-Financing Intercreditor Agreement or the LG Intercreditor Agreement) shall be applied first toward payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in enforcing this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents, in realizing on or protecting any Collateral and in enforcing or collecting any Obligations or any Guaranty thereof, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable attorney’s fees and reasonable out‐of‐pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, and second to the satisfaction of the Obligations in accordance with Section 12.2; provided, however, that, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion apply funds comprising the Collateral to pay the cost (i) of completing any Picture owned in whole or in part by any Credit Party in any stage of production, and (ii) of making delivery to the Distributors of such Picture.  Any amounts remaining after such payment in full shall be remitted to the appropriate Credit Party or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
SECTION 8.8    Power of Attorney.  Each Credit Party does hereby irrevocably make, constitute and appoint the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or designees its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power in the name of the Administrative Agent, such other 

108

Person or such Credit Party upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default which is not waived in writing by the Required Lenders, to receive, open and dispose of all mail addressed to any Credit Party, and to endorse any notes, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral that may come into the possession of the Administrative Agent with full power and right to cause the mail of such Persons to be transferred to the Administrative Agent’s own offices or otherwise, and to do any and all other acts necessary or proper to carry out the intent of this Credit Agreement and the grant of the security interests hereunder and under the Fundamental Documents, and each Credit Party hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Administrative Agent or its designees shall properly do by virtue hereof.  In addition, each Credit Party does hereby further irrevocably make, constitute and appoint the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or designees its true and lawful attorney-in-fact in the name of the Administrative Agent, such other Person or any Credit Party upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default which is not waived in writing by the Required Lenders, subject to the terms of Section 8.12, (a) to enforce all of such Credit Party’s rights under and pursuant to all agreements with respect to the Collateral, all for the sole benefit of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as contemplated hereby and under the other Fundamental Documents and to enter into such other agreements as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate in the judgment of the Administrative Agent to complete the production, distribution or exploitation of any Picture which is included in the Collateral, (b) to enter into and perform such agreements as may be reasonably necessary in order to carry out the terms, covenants and conditions of the Fundamental Documents that are required to be observed or performed by such Credit Party, (c) to execute such other and further mortgages, pledges and assignments of the Collateral, and related instruments or agreements, as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require for the purpose of perfecting, protecting, maintaining or enforcing the security interests granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) hereunder and under the other Fundamental Documents, and (d) to do any and all other things reasonably necessary or proper to carry out the intention of this Credit Agreement and the grant of the security interests hereunder and under the other Fundamental Documents.  Each of the Credit Parties hereby ratifies and confirms in advance all that the Administrative Agent or its officers or designees as such attorney‐in‐fact shall properly do by virtue of this power of attorney.
SECTION 8.9    Financing Statements; Direct Payments.  Each Credit Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to file UCC-1 financing statements and any amendments thereto or continuations thereof, any Copyright Security Agreement, any Copyright Security Agreement Supplement, any Trademark Security Agreement and any other appropriate security documents or instruments and to give any notices reasonably necessary or desirable as determined by the Administrative Agent to perfect the Lien of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in the Collateral, in all cases without the signature of any Credit Party or to execute such items as attorney‐in‐fact for any Credit Party; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall provide copies of any such documents or instruments to the Borrower.  Each Credit Party authorizes the Administrative Agent to use the description “all assets” or a similar description in any such UCC-1 financing statement.  Each Credit Party further authorizes the Administrative Agent, at the time that any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, to notify any account debtor that all sums payable to such Credit Party relating to the Collateral shall be paid directly to the Administrative Agent.

109

SECTION 8.10    Termination and Release.  The security interests granted under this Article 8 shall terminate when all the Obligations shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid and performed and the Commitments shall have terminated.  Upon request by the Credit Parties (and at the sole expense of the Credit Parties) after such termination pursuant to this Section 8.10, the Administrative Agent will promptly take all reasonable action and do all things reasonably necessary, including authorizing UCC termination statements and executing Pledgeholder Agreement and Laboratory Access Letter terminations, termination letters to account debtors, terminations of Account Control Agreements and copyright and trademark releases, to terminate the security interest granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) hereunder; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall only be required to deliver such documents to the Borrower and shall have no obligation to file or record any such documents.
SECTION 8.11    Remedies Not Exclusive.  The remedies conferred upon or reserved to the Administrative Agent in this Article 8 are intended to be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other remedy or remedies available to the Administrative Agent.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have all rights and remedies of a secured creditor under Article 9 of the UCC and under any other Applicable Law.
SECTION 8.12    Quiet Enjoyment.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the security interest hereunder of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) is subject to the rights of Quiet Enjoyment (as defined below) of the Distributors under Distribution Agreements, whether existing on the date hereof or hereafter executed.  For the purpose hereof, “Quiet Enjoyment” shall mean in connection with the rights of a Distributor under a Distribution Agreement, the Administrative Agent’s and each other Secured Party’s agreement that their rights under this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents and in the Collateral are subject to the rights of such Distributor to distribute, exhibit and/or exploit the Pictures licensed to it under such Distribution Agreement, and to receive prints or tapes and other delivery items or have access to preprint material or master tapes and other items to which they are entitled in connection therewith and that even if the Lenders shall become the owners of the Collateral in case of an Event of Default, the Lenders’ ownership rights shall be subject to the rights of such Distributor under such agreement; provided, however, that such Distributor shall not be in default (i) with regard to its obligations to pay any amounts payable to the applicable Credit Party under the applicable Distribution Agreement or (ii) with regard to any other obligation that entitles the applicable Credit Party to terminate such Distributor’s rights; and provided, further, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be responsible for any liability or obligation of any Credit Party or such Distributor under the applicable Distribution Agreement.  The Administrative Agent agrees that, upon the reasonable request of a Credit Party, it will provide written confirmation (in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) of such rights of Quiet Enjoyment to Distributors under the Distribution Agreements.
SECTION 8.13    Continuation and Reinstatement.  The security interest granted hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any Obligation, or any part thereof is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent, or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Credit Party or otherwise.

110

9.    GUARANTY OF GUARANTORS
SECTION 9.1    Guaranty.
(a)    Each Guarantor unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the due and punctual payment by, and performance of, the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of the obligor whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding).  Each Guarantor further agrees that the Obligations may be increased, extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice or further assent from it (except as may be otherwise required herein), and it will remain bound upon this Guaranty notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Obligation.
(b)    Each Guarantor waives presentment to, demand for payment from and protest to, as the case may be, any Credit Party or any other guarantor of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of protest for nonpayment, notice of acceleration and notice of intent to accelerate.  The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy against the Borrower or any Guarantor or any other guarantor under the provisions of this Credit Agreement or any other agreement or otherwise, (ii) any extension or renewal of any provision hereof or thereof, (iii) the failure of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to obtain the consent of the Guarantor with respect to any rescission, waiver, compromise, acceleration, amendment or modification of any of the terms or provisions of this Credit Agreement, the Notes or any other agreement, (iv) the release, exchange, waiver or foreclosure of any security held by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) for the Obligations or any of them, (v) the failure of a Secured Party to exercise any right or remedy against any other Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations, (vi) any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or receivership proceeding or case by or against any Credit Party, or any change in the corporate existence, structure, ownership or control of any Credit Party (including any of the foregoing arising from any merger, consolidation, amalgamation, reorganization or similar transaction), or (vii) the release or substitution of any Guarantor or any other guarantor of the Obligations.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof (including, without limitation, Section 13.6 and Section 13.12), to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Guarantor hereby expressly waives any and all benefits which might otherwise be available to it under California Civil Code Sections 2799, 2809, 2810, 2815, 2819, 2820, 2821, 2822, 2838, 2839, 2845, 2848, 2849, 2850, 2899 and 3433.  
(c)    Each Guarantor further agrees that this Guaranty is a continuing guaranty, shall secure the Obligations and any ultimate balance thereof, notwithstanding that the Borrower or other Persons may from time to time satisfy the Obligations in whole or in part and thereafter incur further Obligations, and that this Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of performance and of payment when due and not just of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any security held for payment of the Obligations or to any balance of any deposit, account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in favor of the Borrower or any Guarantor, or to any other Person.
(d)    Each Guarantor hereby expressly assumes all responsibilities to remain 

111

informed of the financial condition of the Borrower and the other Guarantors and any other guarantors of the Obligations and any circumstances affecting the Collateral (including the Pledged Securities) or the ability of the Borrower to perform under this Credit Agreement.
(e)    Each Guarantor’s obligations under the Guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Obligations, the Notes or any other instrument evidencing any Obligations, or by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefor or by any other circumstance relating to the Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to this Guaranty.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders make no representation or warranty with respect to any such circumstances and have no duty or responsibility whatsoever to any Guarantor with respect to the management and maintenance of the Obligations or any collateral security for the Obligations.
SECTION 9.2    No Impairment of Guaranty, etc.  The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (except payment and performance in full of the Obligations), including, without limitation, any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or set‐off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Obligations or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy under this Credit Agreement or any other agreement, by any waiver or modification of any provision hereof or thereof, by any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations, or by any other act or thing or omission or delay to do any other act or thing which may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or would otherwise operate as a discharge of such Guarantor as a matter of law, unless and until the Obligations are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments have terminated.
SECTION 9.3    Continuation and Reinstatement, etc.
(a)    Each Guarantor further agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any Obligation, or any part thereof, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or a Guarantor, or otherwise.  In furtherance of the provisions of this Article 9, and not in limitation of any other right which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may have at law or in equity against the Borrower, a Guarantor or any other Person by virtue hereof, upon failure of the Borrower to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will, upon receipt of written demand by the Administrative Agent on behalf of itself and/or any of the other Secured Parties, forthwith pay or cause to be paid to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of itself and/or the Secured Parties, as applicable) in cash an amount equal to the unpaid amount of such unpaid Obligations with interest thereon from the due date at a rate of interest equal to the rate specified in Section 2.5(a), and thereupon the Administrative Agent shall assign such Obligation, together with all security interests, if any, then held by the 

112

Administrative Agent in respect of such Obligation, to the Guarantor or Guarantors making such payment; such assignment to be subordinate and junior to the rights of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) with regard to amounts payable by the Borrower in connection with the remaining unpaid Obligations and to be pro tanto to the extent to which the Obligation in question was discharged by the Guarantor or Guarantors making such payments.
(b)    All rights of each Guarantor against the Borrower arising as a result of the payment by such Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) or directly to the Lenders hereunder by way of right of subrogation or otherwise, shall in all respects be subordinated and junior in right of payment to, and shall not be exercised by such Guarantor until and unless, the prior final payment in full of all the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments.  If any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor for the account of the Borrower, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), segregated from such Guarantor’s own assets, and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied to the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured.
SECTION 9.4    Limitation on Guaranteed Amount, etc.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 9, the amount guaranteed by each Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations under this Article 9 shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or to being set aside or annulled under any Applicable Law relating to fraud on creditors.  In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation or contribution which such Guarantor may have under this Article 9, any other agreement or Applicable Law shall be taken into account.
10.    PLEDGE
SECTION 10.1    Pledge.  The Borrower, as security for the due and punctual payment in full of the Obligations (including interest accruing on and after the filing of any petition in bankruptcy or of reorganization of the Borrower whether or not post filing interest is allowed in such proceeding) and each other Pledgor, as security for its obligations hereunder, hereby grants, pledges, hypothecates, assigns, transfers, sets over, conveys and delivers unto the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) a first priority security interest in all Pledged Collateral now owned or hereafter acquired by it.  The Pledgors shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the definitive instruments (if any) representing all Pledged Securities, accompanied by undated stock powers (or any comparable documents for non-corporate entities to the extent certificated), duly endorsed or executed in blank by the appropriate Pledgor, and such other instruments or documents relating thereto as the Administrative Agent or its counsel shall reasonably request.  Schedule 10.1 sets forth all the Pledged Securities as of the date hereof.  
SECTION 10.2    Covenant.  Each Pledgor covenants that as the owner of Equity Interests in each of its respective Subsidiaries it will not take any action to allow any additional Equity Interests of any of such Subsidiaries or any securities convertible or exchangeable into Equity Interests of such Subsidiaries to be issued, or grant any options or warrants, unless all of such interests (or in the case of a Subsidiary that is a Controlled Foreign Corporation, 65% of such interests) are pledged to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) as security 

113

for the Obligations and, if applicable, such Pledgor’s obligations under Article 9.
SECTION 10.3    Registration in Nominee Name; Denominations.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right (in its sole and absolute discretion) to hold the certificates representing any Pledged Securities (i) in its own name (on behalf of the Secured Parties) or in the name of its nominee, or (ii) in the name of the appropriate Pledgor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall have the right to exchange the certificates representing any of the Pledged Securities for certificates of smaller or larger denominations for any purpose consistent with this Credit Agreement.
SECTION 10.4    Voting Rights; Dividends; etc.
(a)    The appropriate Pledgor shall be entitled to exercise any and all voting and/or consensual rights and powers accruing to an owner of the Pledged Securities being pledged by it hereunder or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms hereof, at all times, except as expressly provided in Section 10.4(c) below.
(b)    All dividends or distributions of any kind whatsoever (other than cash dividends or cash distributions paid while no Event of Default is continuing) received by a Pledgor with respect to any Pledged Securities, whether resulting from a subdivision, combination, or reclassification of the outstanding capital stock or Equity Interests of the issuer or received in exchange for Pledged Securities or any part thereof or as a result of any merger, consolidation, acquisition, or other exchange of assets to which the issuer may be a party, or otherwise, shall be and become part of the Pledged Securities pledged hereunder and shall immediately be delivered to the Administrative Agent to be held subject to the terms hereof.  All dividends and distributions with respect to any Pledged Securities which are received by a Pledgor contrary to the provisions of this Section 10.4(b) shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, segregated from such Pledgor’s own assets, and shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent.
(c)    Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and notice to the applicable Pledgor from the Administrative Agent of the transfer of such rights to the Administrative Agent, all rights of such Pledgor (i) to exercise the voting and/or consensual rights and powers which it is entitled to exercise pursuant to this Section 10.4 and (ii) to receive and retain cash dividends and cash distributions with respect to the Pledged Securities shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and/or consensual rights and receive such cash dividends and cash distributions until such time as such Event of Default has been cured or waived.
(d)    So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any cash dividends or cash distributions received by a Credit Party in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement may be used for any purpose permitted hereunder.
SECTION 10.5    Remedies Upon Default.  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties), may sell the Pledged Securities, or any part thereof, at public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Administrative Agent 

114

shall deem appropriate subject to the terms hereof or as otherwise provided in the UCC.  The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if the Administrative Agent deems it advisable to do so) to restrict to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law the prospective bidders or purchasers to Persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Pledged Securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer, and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Pledged Securities so sold.  Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Pledgor.  The Administrative Agent shall give the Pledgors at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice of any such public or private sale, or sale at any broker’s board or on any such securities exchange, or of any other disposition of the Pledged Securities.  Such notice, in the case of public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Pledged Securities, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange.  Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Administrative Agent may fix and shall state in the notice of such sale.  At any such sale, the Pledged Securities, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Administrative Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine.  The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Pledged Securities if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of the Pledged Securities may have been given.  The Administrative Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned.  In case the sale of all or any part of the Pledged Securities is made on credit or for future delivery, the Pledged Securities so sold may be retained by the Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Pledged Securities so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Pledged Securities may be sold again upon like notice.  At any sale or sales made pursuant to this Section 10.5, the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) may bid for or purchase, free from any claim or right of whatever kind, including any equity of redemption, of the Pledgors, any such demand, notice, claim, right or equity being hereby expressly waived and released, any or all of the Pledged Securities offered for sale, and may make any payment on the account thereof by using any claim for moneys then due and payable to the Administrative Agent or any consenting Lender by any Credit Party as a credit against the purchase price; and the Administrative Agent, upon compliance with the terms of sale, may hold, retain and dispose of the Pledged Securities without further accountability therefor to any Pledgor or any third party (other than the Lenders).  The Administrative Agent shall in any such sale make no representations or warranties with respect to the Pledged Securities or any part thereof, and shall not be chargeable with any of the obligations or liabilities of the Pledgors with respect thereto.  Each Pledgor hereby agrees that (i) it will indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent and the Lenders harmless from and against any and all claims with respect to the Pledged Securities asserted before the taking of actual possession or control of the Pledged Securities by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Credit Agreement, or arising out of any act of, or omission to act on the part of, any Person prior to such taking of actual possession or control by the Administrative Agent (whether asserted before 

115

or after such taking of possession or control), or arising out of any act on the part of any Pledgor, its agents or Affiliates before or after the commencement of such actual possession or control by the Administrative Agent, but excluding therefrom all claims with respect to the Pledged Securities resulting from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of any of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, or (y) any claims with respect to the Pledged Securities asserted against an indemnified party by a Credit Party or Pledgor in which such Credit Party or Pledgor is the prevailing party, and (ii) none of the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have any liability or obligation arising out of any such claim except for acts of willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Person, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose upon the Collateral and Pledged Securities under this Credit Agreement and to sell the Pledged Securities, or any portion thereof, pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction.
SECTION 10.6    Application of Proceeds of Sale and Cash.  The proceeds of sale of the Pledged Securities sold pursuant to Section 10.5 shall be applied by the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties) as follows:
(i)    to the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with such sale, including, without limitation, all court costs and reasonable outside attorney’s fees and reasonable expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith, and the payment of all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent in enforcing this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental Documents, in realizing or protecting any Collateral and in enforcing or collecting any Obligations or any Guaranty thereof, including, without limitation, court costs and reasonable outside attorney’s fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith; and
(ii)    to the payment in full of the Obligations in accordance with Section 12.2; 
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may in its discretion apply funds comprising the proceeds of sale of the Pledged Securities to pay the cost (i) of completing any Picture owned in whole or in part by any Credit Party in any stage of production, and (ii) of making delivery to the Distributors of such Picture.  Any amounts remaining after such payment in full shall be remitted to the appropriate Pledgor, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
SECTION 10.7    Securities Act, etc.  In view of the position of each Pledgor in relation to the Pledged Securities pledged by it, or because of other present or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being hereinafter called the “Federal Securities Laws”), with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Securities permitted hereunder.  Each Pledgor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws may very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Administrative Agent if the Administrative Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Securities, and may also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any 

116

subsequent transferee of any Pledged Securities may dispose of the same.  Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Administrative Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Securities under applicable Blue Sky or other state securities laws, or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect.  Under Applicable Law, in the absence of an agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may perhaps be held to have certain general duties and obligations to a Pledgor to make some effort towards obtaining a fair price even though the Obligations may be discharged or reduced by the proceeds of a sale at a lesser price.  Each Pledgor waives to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law any such general duty or obligation to it, and the Pledgors and/or the Credit Parties will not attempt to hold the Administrative Agent responsible for selling all or any part of the Pledged Securities at an inadequate price, even if the Administrative Agent shall accept the first offer received or does not approach more than one possible purchaser.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the provisions of this Section 10.7 would apply if, for example, the Administrative Agent were to place all or any part of the Pledged Securities for private placement by an investment banking firm, or if such investment banking firm purchased all or any part of the Pledged Securities for its own account, or if the Administrative Agent placed all or any part of the Pledged Securities privately with a purchaser or purchasers.
SECTION 10.8    Continuation and Reinstatement.  Each Pledgor further agrees that its pledge hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment of any Obligation, or any part thereof, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Pledgor or otherwise.
SECTION 10.9    Termination.  The pledge referenced herein shall terminate when all of the Obligations shall have been fully and indefeasibly paid and performed and the Commitments shall have terminated, at which time the Administrative Agent (at the sole expense of the Pledgors), shall promptly reassign and deliver to the appropriate Pledgor, or to such Person or Persons as such Pledgor shall designate, against receipt, such of the Pledged Securities (if any) as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof and shall still be held by it hereunder, together with appropriate instruments of reassignment and release.  Any such reassignment shall be free and clear of any Liens arising by, under or through the Administrative Agent (other than those created at the instruction of the applicable Pledgor) but shall otherwise be without recourse upon or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 10.10    Transfer of Pledged Securities.  With respect to Pledged Securities delivered to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent under the Existing Credit Agreement (the “Existing Administrative Agent”), the Credit Parties hereby authorize the Existing Administrative Agent to transfer such Pledged Securities to the Administrative Agent as Collateral hereunder.
11.    CASH COLLATERAL

117

SECTION 11.1    Cash Collateral Accounts.  On or prior to the Closing Date, there shall be established and maintained with the Administrative Agent a collateral account or accounts in the name of the Borrower (the “Cash Collateral Account”), into which the appropriate Credit Parties shall from time to time deposit amounts pursuant to the express provisions of this Credit Agreement requiring or permitting such deposits.  The Cash Collateral Account shall be under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of the Administrative Agent; provided, that unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly release (or permit the release of) funds from the Cash Collateral Account in accordance with the directions of the Borrower.
SECTION 11.2    Investment of Funds.
(a)    The Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to invest and reinvest the funds from time to time transferred or deposited into the Cash Collateral Account, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, on the instructions of the Borrower (provided, that any such instructions given orally shall be confirmed promptly in writing) or, if the Borrower shall fail to give such instructions upon delivery of any such funds, in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent; provided, that in no event may the Borrower give instructions to the Administrative Agent to, or may the Administrative Agent in its discretion, invest or reinvest funds in the Cash Collateral Account in other than Cash Equivalents.
(b)    Any net income or gain on the investment of funds from time to time held in the Cash Collateral Account shall be promptly reinvested by the Administrative Agent as a part of the Cash Collateral Account; and any net loss on any such investment shall be charged against the Cash Collateral Account.
(c)    None of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders shall be a trustee for any Credit Party, or shall have any obligations or responsibilities, or shall be liable for anything done or not done, in connection with the Cash Collateral Account except for any acts of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, except as expressly provided herein and except that the Administrative Agent shall have the obligations of a secured party under the UCC.  The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not have any obligation or responsibility and shall not be liable in any way for any investment decision made in accordance with this Section 11.2 or for any decrease in the value of the investments held in the Cash Collateral Account except for any acts of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
SECTION 11.3    Grant of Security Interest.  For value received and to induce the Lenders to make Loans to the Borrower as provided for in this Credit Agreement, as security for the payment of all of the Obligations, each of the Credit Parties hereby assigns to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) and grants to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties), a first and prior Lien upon all of such Credit Party’s rights in and to the Cash Collateral Account, all cash, documents, instruments and securities from time to time held therein, and all rights pertaining to investments of funds in the Cash Collateral Account and all products and proceeds of any of the foregoing.  All cash, documents, instruments and securities from time to time on deposit in the Cash Collateral Account, and all rights pertaining to investments 

118

of funds in the Cash Collateral Account shall immediately and without any need for any further action on the part of any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender become subject to the Lien set forth in this Section 11.3, be deemed Collateral for all purposes hereof and be subject to the provisions of this Credit Agreement.  
SECTION 11.4    Remedies.  At any time during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may sell any documents, instruments and securities held in the Cash Collateral Account and may immediately apply the proceeds thereof and any other cash held in the Cash Collateral Account in accordance with Section 8.7.
12.    THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
SECTION 12.1    Administration by the Administrative Agent.
(a)    The general administration of the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by the Fundamental Documents shall be by the Administrative Agent or its designees.  Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its discretion, to take or refrain from taking such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise or refrain from exercising such powers under the Fundamental Documents and any other documents contemplated by the Fundamental Documents as are expressly delegated by the terms hereof or thereof, as appropriate, together with all powers reasonably incidental thereto.  The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities except as set forth in the Fundamental Documents.
(b)    The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion):
(i)    in connection with the sale or other disposition of any asset included in the Collateral or the Pledged Collateral of any Guarantor, in each case to the extent undertaken in accordance with the terms of this Credit Agreement, to release a Lien granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties) on such asset or Pledged Collateral and/or to release such Guarantor from its obligations hereunder;
(ii)    to determine that the cost to a Credit Party is disproportionate to the benefit to be realized by the Secured Parties by perfecting a Lien in a given asset or group of assets included in the Collateral and that such Credit Party should not be required to perfect such Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties); provided, that the estimated aggregate value of such asset or group of assets, as determined in good faith by the Borrower, is no greater than $1,000,000;
(iii)    to appoint subagents to be the holder of record of a Lien to be granted to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Parties);
(iv)    to confirm in writing the right of Quiet Enjoyment of certain third Persons pursuant to the terms of Section 8.12;
(v)    in connection with a Picture being produced by a Credit Party with respect 

119

to which (i) the principal photography is being done outside of the United States of America, and (ii) the original Physical Materials will not be processed in a Laboratory, to approve arrangements with such Credit Party as shall be satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to the temporary storage of the original negative film, the original sound track materials or other Physical Materials of such Picture in a production laboratory located in such other jurisdiction;
(vi)    to enter into and perform its obligations under the other Fundamental Documents;
(vii)    to enter into and perform its obligations under any Approved Completion Bond entered into in connection with a Picture, together with such additional documentation customarily entered into in connection therewith and in connection therewith, to approve FFI’s insurance support package and/or credit support as contemplated by the definition of “Approved Completion Guarantor” herein;
(viii)    to enter into Co-Financing Intercreditor Agreements, Interparty Agreements, Co-Financing Venture Interparty Agreements, intercreditor agreements and/or subordination agreements on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent with (A) unions and/or guilds with respect to the security interests in favor of such unions and/or guilds required pursuant to the terms of collective bargaining agreements, (B) any Distributor or licensor or Approved Co-Financier or Approved Co-Financing Venture Counterparty or Completion Guarantors having any rights to any Picture, (C) Persons providing any services in connection with any Picture, (D) Persons providing tax benefit, production subsidies and/or similar arrangements  for Pictures or (E) sales agents or third party licensing intermediaries which are permitted by the terms hereof to be involved in the distribution of Pictures;
(ix)    to approve the terms and conditions of any sale or leaseback or other tax benefit transaction permitted under Section 6.8;
(x)    to determine when a Lender is or becomes a Defaulting Lender;
(xi)    to determine that the cost to a Credit Party is disproportionate to the benefit to be realized by the Secured Parties by perfecting a Lien in a given bank account included in the Collateral and that such Credit Party should not be required to execute and deliver an Account Control Agreement;
(xii)    notwithstanding any restrictions set forth in Article 6 with respect to tax motivated and other “soft money” transactions, approve the terms and conditions of any such transaction, the structure of which requires the approval of the Administrative Agent hereunder, including the grant of a Lien by a Credit Party or the incurrence of Indebtedness on an interim basis; provided, that the Administrative Agent reasonably believes that the grant of such Lien or the incurrence of such interim Indebtedness is necessary to maximize such Credit Party’s economic return and/or to monetize the related tax or “soft money” benefit which would not otherwise be payable to such Credit Party;
(xiii)    to consent to the repayment of Indebtedness owed by one Credit Party to 

120

another and termination of any loan agreement, security agreement and intercreditor agreement related thereto; 
(xiv)    subject to Section 13.10(b), to consent to any amendment to the Credit Agreement on behalf of the Lenders (i) until the completion of the syndication (as determined by the Administrative Agent) of the Facility following the Closing Date, which implements economic changes favorable to the Lenders, or (ii) which implements non-material changes to the Credit Agreement to reflect the structure of the Acquisition; 
(xv)    to enter into intercreditor agreements (on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) with respect to rights granted to the Borrower pursuant to an LG Sublicense (and the Administrative shall enter into such intercreditor agreements upon the request of the Borrower); and 
(xvi)    to approve LG Rights Sales Transactions, provided that the Administrative Agent shall have determined that (A) the applicable Credit Party has received a first priority perfected Lien on the transferred distribution rights, receivables from the exploitation thereof and proceeds of the foregoing in order to secure the payment obligations owing to such Credit Party in connection with such LG Rights Sales Transaction, and (B) such Lien has been collaterally assigned to the Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Lenders).
SECTION 12.2    Payments.  As among the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of the Fundamental Documents, (i) after the Loans have become immediately due and payable or (ii) the application of which is not otherwise provided for herein (but in either case subject to Section 2.13), shall be applied first, to cash collateralize any binding obligations of the Administrative Agent or any Lenders under Interparty Agreements to make additional Loans notwithstanding certain Events of Default, and second, ratably, to pay accrued but unpaid interest on the Loans in accordance with the amount of outstanding Loans owed to each Lender, to pay the principal balance outstanding on the Loans (with amounts payable on the principal balance outstanding on any Loans in accordance with the amount of outstanding Loans owed to each Lender), to pay any other amounts then due under this Credit Agreement, and to pay any other outstanding Obligations.  All amounts to be paid to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in such Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, or as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.
SECTION 12.3    Sharing of Setoffs and Cash Collateral.  Each of the Lenders agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s Lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Credit Party (including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law) or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Loans as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Loans is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of Loans of any of the other Lenders, (i) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lenders a participation in the Loans of such other Lenders, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each of the 

121

Lenders’ Loans shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Loans outstanding prior to the obtaining of such payment, and (ii) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders share such payment pro rata.  If all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the Lender which originally received such excess payment, such purchase (or portion thereof) shall be canceled and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery.  The Credit Parties expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Lender or Lenders holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Loan may exercise any and all rights of banker’s Lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender or Lenders as fully as if such Lender or Lenders held a Loan and was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 12.4    Notice to the Lenders.  Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party of any communication calling for an action on the part of the Lenders, or upon receipt by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party of written notice of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent will in turn immediately inform the Lenders in writing (which shall include facsimile communications) of the nature of such communication or of the Event of Default, as the case may be.
SECTION 12.5    Liability of the Administrative Agent.
(a)    The Administrative Agent, when acting on behalf of any Secured Party, may execute any of its duties under this Credit Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents by or through its respective directors, officers, agents or employees and neither the Administrative Agent nor its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Lenders or any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith, nor be responsible to the Lenders or to any of them for the consequences of any oversight or error of judgment, or for any loss, unless the same shall happen through its gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  The Administrative Agent and its directors, officers, agents, and employees shall in no event be liable to the Lenders or to any of them for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it pursuant to instructions received by it from the Required Lenders or in reliance upon the advice of counsel selected by it with reasonable care.  Without limiting the foregoing, neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be responsible to any of the Lenders for the due execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness, sufficiency, or enforceability of, or for any statement, warranty, or representation in, or for the perfection of any security interest contemplated by, the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement, document or order, or for freedom of any of the Collateral or any of the Pledged Collateral from prior Liens or security interests, or shall be required to ascertain or to make any inquiry concerning the performance or observance by the Borrower or any other Credit Party of any of the terms, conditions, covenants, or agreements of the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document.
(b)    Neither the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as agent for the Lenders) nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower 

122

or any other Credit Party on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any of the Lenders (other than JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.) of any of such Lender’s obligations under the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document or in connection herewith or therewith.  No Lender nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall have any responsibility to the Borrower or any other Credit Party on account of the failure or delay in performance or breach by any other Lender of such other Lender’s obligations under the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document or in connection herewith or therewith.
(c)    The Administrative Agent (in its capacity as agent for the Lenders hereunder) shall be entitled to rely on any communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine or correct and to have been signed or sent by a Person or Persons believed by it to be the proper Person or Persons, and it shall be entitled to rely on advice of legal counsel, independent public accountants, and other professional advisers and experts selected by it with reasonable care.
SECTION 12.6    Reimbursement and Indemnification.  Each of the Lenders agrees (i) to reimburse the Administrative Agent for such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under the Fundamental Documents, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Credit Party and (ii) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents, on demand, in accordance with such Lender’s Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against, it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of any of the Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document, or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under any Fundamental Documents or any related agreement or document, to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Credit Party (except such as shall result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be reimbursed, indemnified or held harmless, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).  To the extent indemnification payments or reimbursement payments made by the Lenders pursuant to this Section 12.6 are subsequently recovered by the Administrative Agent from a Credit Party, the Administrative Agent shall promptly refund such previously paid payments to the Lenders.
SECTION 12.7    Rights of Administrative Agent.  It is understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the same duties, rights and powers as a Lender hereunder (including the right to give such instructions) as any of the other Lenders and may exercise such rights and powers, as well as its rights and powers under other agreements and instruments to which it is or may be party, and engage in other transactions with any Credit Party or Affiliate thereof, as though it were not the Administrative Agent of the Lenders under the Fundamental Documents.
SECTION 12.8    Independent Investigation by Lenders.  Each of the Lenders acknowledges that it has decided to enter into this Credit Agreement and the other Fundamental 

123

Documents and to make the Loans hereunder based on its own analysis of the transactions contemplated hereby and of the creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall bear any responsibility therefor.
SECTION 12.9    Agreement of Required Lenders.  Except as set forth in Section 13.10, upon any occasion requiring or permitting an approval, consent, waiver, election or other action on the part of the Lenders action shall be taken by the Administrative Agent for and on behalf of, or for the benefit of, all Lenders upon the direction of the Required Lenders and any such action shall be binding on all Lenders.  No amendment, modification, consent or waiver shall be effective except in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.10.
SECTION 12.10    Notice of Transfer.  The Administrative Agent may deem and treat any Lender which is a party to this Credit Agreement as the owner of such Lender’s respective portions of the Loans for all purposes, unless and until a written notice of the assignment or transfer thereof executed by any such Lender shall have been received by the Administrative Agent and become effective in accordance with Section 13.3.
SECTION 12.11    Successor Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, but such resignation shall not become effective until acceptance by a successor agent of its appointment pursuant hereto.  Upon any such resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall consult with the Borrower and promptly appoint a successor agent which successor shall be experienced and sophisticated in entertainment industry lending; provided, that such replacement is reasonably acceptable (as evidenced in writing) to the Required Lenders and the Borrower; provided, however, that at any time when a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, none of the foregoing approvals or restrictions shall apply.  If no successor agent shall have been so appointed by the retiring Administrative Agent and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring agent’s giving of notice of resignation, the Borrower may appoint a successor agent (which successor may be replaced only by the direction of the Required Lenders; provided, that such successor is experienced and sophisticated in entertainment industry lending and so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, such successor is reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $250,000,000 and shall be experienced and sophisticated in entertainment industry lending.  Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor agent, such successor agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Credit Agreement, the other Fundamental Documents and any other credit documentation.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 12 and Article 13 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement.
SECTION 12.12    Other Agent Titles.  Other than the title “Administrative Agent,” 

124

any title accorded to any Lender on the cover page hereof containing the word “Agent”, “Arranger” or “Bookrunner” is granted for recognition only and any such Lender granted such a title shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Credit Agreement other than those applicable to all such Lenders as such.  Without limiting the foregoing, no such Lender shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any other Lender or the Credit Parties.  Each other Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any Lender having any such title in deciding to enter into this Credit Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.  In the event of any claim against any such Lender in any capacity or purported capacity inferred from any such title, such Lender shall have the benefit of Section 13.5 to the same extent as the Administrative Agent.

rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, (ii) each assignment shall be in a minimum principal amount equal to the lesser of $2,500,000 and all of such assigning Lender’s outstanding Loans, (iii) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, an Assignment and Assumption, together with the assigning Lender’s original Note (if any) and a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 to be paid to the Administrative Agent by the assigning Lender or the assignee and (iv) the consent of the Administrative Agent shall not be required for an assignment of rights and interests in the Facility by a Lender to (A) any Affiliate of such Lender, (B) any Person, or Affiliate of a Person, that manages such Lender (a “Related Fund”), or (C) to any other Lender.  Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, which effective date shall not (unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent) be earlier than five (5) Business Days after the date of acceptance and recording by the Administrative Agent, (x) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and under the other Fundamental Documents and shall be bound by the provisions hereof, and (y) the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Credit Agreement except that, notwithstanding such assignment, any rights and remedies available to the Borrower for any breaches by such assigning Lender of its obligations hereunder while a Lender shall be preserved after such assignment and such Lender shall not be relieved of any liability to the Borrower due to any such breach.  In the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement, such assigning Lender shall cease to be a party hereto, except as provided in Sections 13.4 and 13.5.
(c)    Notwithstanding any provision herein requiring the consent of the Borrower (other than the requirement that the Borrower consent to any assignment to a Competitor), each Lender may at any time make an assignment of its interests, rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement without the consent of the Borrower, to (i) any Affiliate of such Lender, (ii) a Related Fund, or (iii) any other Lender hereunder; provided, that prior to an Event of Default, no such assignment shall be made to assignee which at the time of such assignment would be entitled to receive pursuant to the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 and 2.11 an amount larger than the amount that the Lender making such assignment would have been entitled to receive.  Any such assignment to any Affiliate of the assigning Lender, a Related Fund or any other Lender hereunder shall not be subject to the requirement of Section 13.3(b) that the amount of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each assignment be in a minimum principal amount of the lesser of $2,500,000 and all of such assigning Lender’s outstanding Loans, and any such assignment to any Affiliate of the assigning Lender shall not release the assigning Lender of its remaining obligations hereunder, if any.
(d)    By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:  (i) other than the representation and warranty that (x) it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby, (y) that such interest is free and clear of any Lien, encumbrance or other adverse claim, and (z) it has full power and authority, and has taken all action necessary, to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and to consummate the 

127

transactions contemplated thereby, 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 Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of the Fundamental Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto or any collateral thereunder, (ii) such assignor Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any other Person obligated in respect of any Fundamental Document, or the performance or observance by the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, or any other Person of any of their respective obligations under the Fundamental Documents or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto, (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Credit Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.1(a) and (b) (or, if no such financial statements shall have theretofore been delivered, then a copy of the financial statements referred to in Section 3.5) and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption and to purchase the interest being assigned thereby on the basis of which it has made such analysis and decision independently and without reliance on the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (iv) such assignee agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, the Administrative 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 credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Credit Agreement or any other Fundamental Document, (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as the agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Credit Agreement as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will be bound by the provisions of this Credit Agreement and will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.
(e)    The Administrative Agent (acting for this purpose on behalf of the Borrower) shall maintain at its address at which notices are to be given to it pursuant to Section 13.1 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender from time to time (the “Register”).  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of the Fundamental Documents.  The Register shall be available for inspection by any Credit Party or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(f)    Subject to the foregoing, upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee together with the assigning Lender’s original Note, if applicable, and the processing and recordation fee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed, is in the form of Exhibit G, and has been consented to in writing by the Administrative Agent, and to the extent applicable, the Borrower, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, and (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register.  Within five (5) Business Days after receipt of the notice, the Borrower shall, at its own expense and 

128

if the assignee has so requested, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for the surrendered Note (if any), a new Note to the order of such assignee in an amount equal to the Loan owing to it assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and if the assigning Lender has retained a portion of the Loan owing to it hereunder and so requests a new Note to the order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the portion of the Loan owing to it retained by it hereunder.  Any new Notes shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Loan assigned and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of Exhibit A.  In addition, the Credit Parties will promptly, at their own expense, execute such amendments to the Fundamental Documents to which each is a party and such additional documents, and take such other actions as the Administrative Agent or the assignee Lender may reasonably request in order to give such assignee Lender the full benefit of the Liens contemplated by the Fundamental Documents.
(g)    Each of the Lenders may, without the consent of any of the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note (if any) held by it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such participant shall not be granted any voting rights or any right to control the vote of such Lender under this Credit Agreement, except with respect to proposed changes to interest rates, amount or final maturity of any Loan, releases of all or substantially all the Collateral and fees (in each case, only as applicable to such participant), (iii) any such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iv) the participating banks or other entities shall be entitled to the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.9 and 2.11 (subject to the last sentence of this Section 13.3(g)) but a participant shall not be entitled to receive pursuant to such provisions an amount larger than its share of the amount to which the Lender granting such participation would have been entitled to receive, and (v) the Credit Parties, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s and its participants’ rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement.  No holder of a participating interest shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.11 with respect to withholding taxes under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such holder and such holder agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.11(e) and Section 2.11(f) as though it were a Lender.
(h)    A Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 13.3, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to any Credit Party furnished to the Administrative Agent or such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower or another Credit Party (provided that such proposed assignee or participant agrees to hold such information confidential in accordance with Section 13.18).
(i)    Any assignment pursuant to Section 13.3(b) or (c) shall constitute an amendment of the Schedule of Commitments as of the effective date of such assignment without any other further action required.

129

Such payments shall be made on the date this Credit Agreement is executed by the Borrower and thereafter on demand.  The Borrower agrees that it shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders from and hold them harmless against any documentary taxes, assessments or charges made by any Governmental Authority by reason of the execution and delivery of this Credit Agreement or the Notes.  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 13.4 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans.
SECTION 13.5    Indemnity.  The Credit Parties agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners and the Lenders and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an “Indemnified Party”) (to the full extent permitted by Applicable Law) from and against any and all claims, demands, losses, judgments, damages and liabilities (including liabilities for penalties) incurred by any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by reason of, any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners or any Lender is a party thereto) related to the entering into and/or performance of any Fundamental Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated in any Fundamental Document, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding (i) any such claims, demands, losses, judgments, damages or liabilities of an Indemnified Party to the extent they are found in a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been incurred solely by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party, (ii) litigation solely between a Credit Party or Credit Parties, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, on the other hand, in connection with this Credit

Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents or in any way relating to the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby if, after final non‐appealable judgment, such Credit Party or Credit Parties is/are the prevailing party or parties in such litigation, and (iii) litigation solely among the Lenders or between the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with this Credit Agreement, the Fundamental Documents or in any way relating to the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby).  If any proceeding, including any governmental investigation, shall be instituted involving any Indemnified Party, in respect of which indemnity may be sought against the Credit Parties, such Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Borrower in writing; provided, however, that failure of such Indemnified Party to so notify the Borrower shall not relieve the Borrower of its indemnification obligations hereunder.  The foregoing indemnity agreement includes any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by an Indemnified Party in connection with any action or proceeding in connection with which any officer or employee of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners or the Lenders is called as a witness or deponent, including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and disbursements of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, counsel to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Bookrunners and any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Bookrunners or the Lenders in appearing as a witness or in otherwise complying with legal process served upon them.  The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 13.5 shall survive the termination of this Credit Agreement and the payment of the Loans and shall inure to the benefit of any Person who was a Lender notwithstanding such Person’s assignment of all its Loans hereunder.
If a Credit Party shall fail to do any act or thing which it has covenanted to do hereunder or under any other Fundamental Document, or any representation or warranty of a Credit Party shall be breached in any material respect, then after providing written notice thereof to the Borrower and the Borrower’s failure to take such action to cure such failure or breach within ten (10) Business Days of the Borrower’s receipt of such written notice, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach and there shall be added to the Obligations hereunder the cost or expense incurred by the Administrative Agent in so doing, and any and all amounts expended by the Administrative Agent in taking any such action shall be repayable to it upon its demand therefor and shall bear interest at a rate per annum of 2.00% in excess of the rate then in effect for Alternate Base Rate Loans from time to time in effect from the date advanced to the date of repayment; provided, that if the Administrative Agent determines at any time that an immediate remedy of any such breach is needed to prevent a loss in Collateral value, the foregoing prior notice and cure period shall not be required.

The Credit Parties hereby agree that they will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (i) all such Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof, (ii) by marking Materials “PUBLIC,” the Credit Parties shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and the Lenders to treat such Materials as either publicly available information or not material information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Credit Parties or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws, (iii) all Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor;” and (iv) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat any Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.”
SECTION 13.20    Foreign Rights Loans.  Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, the agent/arranger of each Foreign Rights Loan must be an entertainment lender that has been pre-approved by the Administrative Agent, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.
SECTION 13.21    Unwind of Foreign Rights Loans.  Once each Foreign Rights Loan made prior to the Original Closing Date in respect of a Picture is repaid, the Credit Parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to unwind the structure (in a manner satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) of such Foreign Rights Loan, including security arrangements and collection accounts relating to such Picture, so that the Administrative Agent shall have a first priority perfected Lien in such Picture and the receipts therefrom, subject to Specified Permitted Encumbrances, and all payments of such receipts shall be directed to a Collection Account maintained with the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 13.22    Servicer.  To the extent that any provision hereof permits notices or other communications from, or contemplates knowledge of, a Credit Party or an Authorized Officer thereof, (i) the Servicer may send such notices or other communications on behalf of such Credit Party, and (ii) the knowledge of Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. and/or any direct or indirect subsidiary thereof (including the Servicer) shall be deemed included in the knowledge of such Credit Party.
SECTION 13.23    Services Agreement.  The Borrower does hereby irrevocably make, constitute and appoint the Administrative Agent or any of its officers or designees its true 

137

and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power in the name of the Administrative Agent, such other Person or the Borrower to, as of the Closing Date, (i) enforce the Services Agreement on behalf of the Borrower (separate and apart from any of the Administrative Agent’s rights thereunder) against the Servicer and (ii) in the event of any insolvency proceeding of the Servicer, bring a motion to compel the Servicer to assume or reject the Services Agreement, bring a motion for relief from the automatic stay, bring a motion to compel provision of adequate protection, or bring any other motion or take any other action on behalf of the Borrower in connection with the Services Agreement as the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate.  In each of the foregoing cases, the Borrower hereby ratifies and confirms all that the Administrative Agent or its designees shall properly do by virtue hereof.
SECTION 13.24    Non-Recourse.  For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no recourse against any of the assets of Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., Lions Gate Entertainment Inc. or any of the “Restricted Subsidiaries” (as such term is defined in that certain Indenture dated as of October 21, 2009 among Lions Gate Entertainment Inc., Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., the other guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, as in effect on the date hereof) under this Credit Agreement or the other Fundamental Documents; provided, that this Section 13.24 shall not in any way affect the rights or obligations of the Servicer, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent under the Services Agreement.
SECTION 13.25    Reorganization of Ownership of Borrower and Release of LGAC as a Credit Party.
(a)    Notwithstanding any other provision of this Credit Agreement to the contrary and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 13.25(b), LGAC may engage in the following transactions and be released from its liability hereunder as a Credit Party:
(i)    assign all of its equity ownership in and claims against the Borrower or any other Credit Party to a newly formed subsidiary of LGAC (the “LGAC Successor”); and
(ii)    have the LGAC Successor assume all of LGAC’s obligations to the Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Fundamental Documents.
(b)    The conditions precedent to the foregoing are:
(i)    the satisfaction of all of the conditions precedent to the making of the initial distribution pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition “Permitted Distributions”; 
(ii)    no Default or Event of Default having occurred and continuing at the time of the foregoing actions; 
(iii)    the LGAC Successor being a special purpose entity formed in the same jurisdiction as LGAC and having no liabilities other than those assumed by it as the successor to LGAC pursuant to the terms hereof;
(iv)    LGAC having assigned to the LGAC Successor all of its claims and other 

138

rights under the Purchase Agreement and all its other assets including its ownership of and claims against the Borrower and the other Credit Parties and the LGAC 1 Account;
(v)    the Agent being reasonably satisfied that its position as a secured creditor under the Fundamental Documents has not been adversely affected as a result of such reorganization; and
(vi)    the Agent having received such documentation with regard to the formation of LGAC Successor and the transactions contemplated by this Section 13.25 as it shall have reasonably requested, including an opinion of counsel as to the formation of LGAC Successor and the authorization, execution and delivery by LGAC and LGAC Successor of any documentation necessary to effectuate such assignments and assumption.
(c)    Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 13.25(b) and the effectuation of the transaction contemplated by Section 13.25(a), the Administrative Agent will execute a release of LGAC from its obligations hereunder.
