2.                       SECURITY

INTERESTS; PRIORITIES; REMEDIES

 

2.1      Acknowledgment of Liens. (a) Junior Creditor hereby

acknowledges that Senior Creditor Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders,

has been granted a first priority Lien upon the Collateral to secure the Senior

Debt.

 

(b)              Senior Creditor Agent and the

Lenders hereby acknowledge that Junior Creditor has been granted a second

priority Lien upon the Collateral to secure the Junior Debt.

 

2.2      Priority of Liens. Notwithstanding

the order or time of attachment, or the order, time or manner of perfection, or

the order or time of filing or recordation of any document or instrument, or

other method of perfecting a security interest in favor of each Creditor in any

Collateral, and notwithstanding any conflicting terms or conditions which may

be contained in any of the Agreements, the Liens upon the Collateral of Senior

Creditor Agent, on behalf of itself and the Lenders, have and shall have

priority over the Liens upon the Collateral of Junior Creditor, and such Liens

of Junior Creditor are and shall be, in all respects, subject and subordinate

to the Liens of Senior Creditor Agent therein to the full extent of the Senior

Debt.

 

2.3      Priorities Unaffected by Action or

Inaction The lien priorities provided in Sections 2.1 and 2.2 shall not be

altered or otherwise affected by any amendment, modification, supplement,

extension, renewal, restatement or refinancing of either the Senior Debt or the

Junior Debt, nor by any action or inaction which any Creditor may take or fail

to take in respect of the Collateral.

 

2.4      Rights of Third Parties; No contest of

Liens. Each Creditor shall be solely responsible for perfecting and

maintaining the perfection of its Lien in and to each item constituting the

Collateral in which such Creditor has been granted a Lien.  The foregoing provisions of this Agreement

are intended solely to govern the respective lien priorities as between the

Creditors and shall not impose on Senior Creditor Agent or Lenders any

obligations in respect of the disposition of proceeds of foreclosure on any

Collateral which would conflict with prior perfected claims therein in favor of

any other person or any order or decree of any court or other governmental

authority or any applicable law. Junior Creditor agrees that it will not

contest the validity, perfection, priority or enforceability of the Liens upon

the Collateral of Senior Creditor Agent and that as among Senior Creditor

Agent, Lenders and Junior Creditor, the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement

shall govern even if part or all of the Senior Debt or the

 

5

 

Liens securing payment and performance

thereof are not perfected or are avoided, disallowed, set aside or otherwise

invalidated in any judicial proceeding or otherwise.

 

2.5      Right to Enforce Agreements. Senior

Creditor Agent shall have the exclusive right to manage, perform and enforce

the terms of the Senior Creditor Agreements with respect to the Collateral, to

exercise and enforce all privileges and rights thereunder according to its

discretion and the exercise of its business judgment, including, without

limitation, the exclusive right to take or retake control or possession of the

Collateral and to hold, prepare for sale, process, sell, lease, dispose of, or

liquidate such Collateral in accordance with applicable law. Junior Creditor

shall not have any right to direct Senior Creditor Agent to exercise any right,

remedy or power with respect to the Collateral and Junior Creditor consents to

the exercise by Senior Creditor Agent of any such right, remedy or power.  Junior Creditor shall not institute any suit

or assert in any suit, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim

against Senior Creditor Agent or Lenders seeking damages from or other relief

by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise, with respect to, and

Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders shall not be liable for, any action taken or

omitted to be taken by Senior Creditor Agent with respect to the Collateral in

accordance with applicable law. Until such time as the Senior Debt is paid in

full and the Senior Creditor Agreements are terminated, Junior Creditor shall

not have any right to participate in any negotiations or proceedings involving

any condemnation of the Collateral or any part thereof or involving any

insurance that may be available for loss of or damage to the Collateral or any

part thereof, and Junior Creditor hereby appoints Senior Creditor Agent as

Junior Creditor’s attorney-in-fact to settle or compromise any claim for

proceeds of insurance or condemnation with respect to the Collateral and to

collect or deposit any such proceeds, which power of attorney is irrevocable

and coupled with an interest for so long as this Intercreditor Agreement is in

effect.

 

2.6      Sale and Release of Collateral.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any of the Agreements,

until all of the Senior Debt is indefeasibly paid in full and the Senior

Creditor Agreements are terminated, only Senior Creditor Agent shall have the

right to restrict or permit, or approve or disapprove, the sale, transfer or

other disposition of Collateral. Junior Creditor shall (a) be deemed to have

automatically and without further action released and terminated any Liens it

may have on the Collateral to the extent such Collateral is sold or otherwise disposed

of in a commercially reasonable manner either by Senior Creditor Agent, any

agent of Senior Creditor Agent, or any Debtor with the consent of Senior

Creditor Agent (provided that, in the case of a sale of Collateral other than

inventory or accounts, the cash proceeds thereof are applied to repay the term

loan made by Lenders to Borrower until fully repaid and thereafter to repay

revolving loans made by Lenders to Borrower), (b) be deemed to have authorized

Senior Creditor Agent to file UCC amendments and terminations covering the

Collateral so sold or otherwise disposed of as to UCC financing statements

between any Debtor and Junior Creditor to evidence such release and

termination, (c) promptly upon the request of Senior Creditor Agent, execute

and deliver such other release documents and confirmations of the authorization

to file UCC amendments and terminations provided for herein, in each case as

Senior Creditor Agent reasonably may require in connection with such sale or

other disposition by Senior Creditor Agent, Senior Creditor Agent’s agents or

any Debtor with the consent of Senior Creditor Agent to evidence and effectuate

such termination and release, provided, that, any such release or

UCC amendment or termination by Junior Creditor shall not extend to or

otherwise affect any of the rights, if any, of Junior Creditor to the proceeds

from any such sale or

 

6

 

other disposition of Collateral and (d) be

deemed to have consented under the Junior Creditor Agreements to such sale or

other disposition. In the event that for any reason Junior Creditor shall fail

to immediately execute and deliver to Senior Creditor Agent any such release

documents, Senior Creditor Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized to execute

and deliver such release documents on behalf of Junior Creditor as Junior

Creditor’s attorney-in-fact. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.6,

Junior Creditor shall not be deemed to release or terminate the Liens of Junior

Creditor to the extent that any proceeds of the sale, transfer or other

disposition of Collateral are in excess of the amount necessary to pay in full

all of the Senior Debt in immediately available funds.

 

2.7      Remedies.

 

(a)               Except as otherwise specifically

provided in Section 2.8 hereof, notwithstanding any rights or remedies

available to a Creditor under any of the Agreements, applicable law or

otherwise, Junior Creditor shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) exercise any

rights or remedies upon a default or event of default by Debtor under the

Junior Creditor Agreements or otherwise against any Collateral, or (ii) seek to

foreclose or realize upon (judicially or non-judicially) its Lien on any

Collateral or assert any claims or interests therein (including without

limitation, by setoff or notification of account debtors), or (iii) take any

other action against the Collateral.

 

(b)              Notwithstanding any rights or

remedies available to Junior Creditor under any of the Junior Creditor

Agreements, applicable law or otherwise, during a Blockage Period, Junior

Creditor shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) seek to collect from Debtors

(including, without limitation, from or by way of any of the Collateral) any of

the Junior Debt, (ii) exercise any of Junior Creditor’s rights or remedies upon

a default or event of default under the Junior Creditor Agreements or otherwise

(including, without limitation, accelerating the maturity of any Junior Debt)

or (iii) commence or join in any action or proceeding against any Debtor or its

properties under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any state or foreign insolvency

law or similar law, or any proceedings for liquidation, dissolution or any

winding up of any Debtor’s business, or the appointment of any trustee,

receiver or liquidator for any Debtor or any of its properties, or any

assignment for the benefit of creditors.

 

(c)               Notwithstanding any rights or

remedies available to Junior Creditor under any of the Junior Creditor

Agreements, Junior Creditor shall not, directly or indirectly, take any of the

actions set forth in Section 2.7(b) or Section 2.8(f) until at least fifteen

(15) business days after Junior Creditor shall have given Senior Creditor Agent

written notice of its intention to take any such action.

 

(d)              Notwithstanding anything to the

contrary contained herein, if, as of the Junior Debt Stated Maturity Date, the

Senior Debt has not been indefeasibly satisfied in full and the financing

arrangements among Senior Creditor Agent, Lenders and Debtors have not been terminated,

Junior Creditor shall not be entitled, directly or indirectly, for the 180 day

period immediately following the Junior Debt Stated Maturity Date (the “Waiting

Period”) to (i) seek to collect from Debtors (including, without limitation,

from or by way of any of the Collateral) any of the Junior Debt, (ii) exercise

any of Junior Creditor’s rights or remedies upon a default or event of default

under the Junior Creditor Agreements or otherwise (including, without

limitation, accelerating the maturity of any Junior Debt) or (iii) commence or

join in any action

 

7

 

or proceeding against any Debtor or its

properties under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or any state or foreign insolvency

law or similar law, or any proceedings for liquidation, dissolution or any

winding up of any Debtor’s business, or the appointment of any trustee,

receiver or liquidator for any Debtor or any of its properties, or any

assignment for the benefit of creditors. 

From and after the expiration of the Waiting Period, Junior Creditor

shall be entitled to enforce its rights and remedies against the Debtors, except

that, under no circumstances, shall Junior Creditor, directly or

indirectly, (A) exercise any rights or remedies upon a default or event of

default by Debtor under the Junior Creditor Agreements or otherwise against any

Collateral, or (B) seek to foreclose or realize upon (judicially or

non-judicially) its Lien on any Collateral or assert any claims or interests

therein (including without limitation, by setoff or notification of account

debtors), or (C) take any other action against the Collateral.

 

2.8      Limited Rights of Junior Creditor.

The foregoing shall not in any way limit or impair the right of Junior Creditor

(in accordance with the terms of the Junior Creditor Agreements) to: (a) bid

for and purchase Collateral at any private or judicial foreclosure upon such

Collateral initiated by Senior Creditor Agent, or (b) participate in any

administrative, legal or equitable action or proceeding against any Obligor

seeking any reorganization, liquidation, bankruptcy or any other action

involving the readjustment of all or any part of the Junior Debt, or other

similar relief under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, or (c) send such notices of the

in the Collateral to any court or governmental agency, or file or record any

such notice or evidence to the extent necessary to prove or preserve the Liens

of Junior Creditor in the Collateral or (d) join (but not control) any

foreclosure or other lien enforcement proceeding with respect to the Collateral

initiated by Senior Creditor Agent, so long as Junior Creditor does not delay

Senior Creditor Agent has accelerated the maturity of the Senior Debt or (f)

increase the interest rate under the Junior Creditor Agreements to a post-default

rate of interest if, and only if, an event of default occurs and is continuing

under the Junior Creditor Agreements provided, however, that Junior Creditor

shall not be entitled to be paid in cash on a monthly basis at its post-default

rate of interest (and the 3 percent increase resulting from the invocation of

the post-default interest rate will be payable in kind by Borrower) if either

(i) Senior Creditor elects not to increase the interest rate under the Senior

Creditor Agreements to a post-default rate of interest, or (ii) Senior Creditor

subsequently elects to reduce the interest rate under the Senior Creditor

Agreements to a pre-default rate of interest or (g) to charge and receive a

waiver or amendment fee if, and only if, a Senior Debt Event of Default occurs

and such default is also an event of default under the Junior Creditor

Agreements and Senior Creditor elects to waive such Senior Debt Event of

Default and Junior Creditor elects or is required to waive such default under

the Junior Creditor Agreements; provided that the amount of such waiver fee

payable to Junior Creditor shall be in an amount equal to the product of the

amount of the waiver fee received by Lenders under the Senior Creditor

Agreements times Junior Creditor’s Credit Percentage or (h) to commence an

action against Borrower and any Obligors to collect any unpaid principal,

interest, or fees owed in respect of the Junior Debt, so long as (i) the

hereof as of the due date of any such payment and is permitted under Section

3.2 hereof as of the date that Junior Creditor receives payment thereof, and

(ii) any collection action shall be limited to only an operating account of the

Borrower or any Obligor or any of their other assets not constituting

Collateral (under no circumstances shall any action be taken by Junior Creditor

against the

 

8

 

Collateral or any lockbox or blocked account

or any other account of Borrower or any Obligor (other than an operating

account of the Borrower or such Obligor)). 

Any collection action permitted under clause (h) of this Section 2.8

shall be limited to the amount of the installment (or installments) of

principal, interest, or fees the payment of which as regularly scheduled or

required is then in default and shall not result in, nor shall such clause (h)

be deemed to permit, acceleration of the remaining unpaid principal of and

interest on the Junior Debt.

 

2.9      Right to Cure. Senior Creditor

Agent shall have the right, but not any obligation, to cure for the account of

Debtors any default by any Debtor under the Junior Creditor Agreements at any

time. In no event shall Senior Creditor Agent by virtue of the payment of amounts,

or performance of any obligation required to be paid or performed by any

Debtor, be deemed to have assumed any obligation of any Debtor to Junior

Creditor or any other person.

 

2.10    Certain Revolving Loans. If Senior

Creditor Agent or any Lender shall honor a request by a Debtor for a loan,

advance or other financial accommodation under the Senior Creditor Agreements,

whether or not Senior Creditor Agent or any Lender has knowledge that the

honoring of such request would result in an event of default, or act, condition

or event which with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an event

of default, under the Junior Creditor Agreements, Senior Creditor Agent and

Lenders shall not have any liability whatsoever to Junior Creditor as a result

of such breach, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Junior

Creditor agrees that Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders shall not have any

liability for tortious interference with contractual relations or for

inducement to breach any contract of Junior Creditor for actions taken (or not

taken, as the case may be) consistent with the terms of the Senior Creditor

Agreements.

OF JUNIOR DEBT

 

3.1      Subordination.  Except as specifically set forth in Section

contrary contained in Section 3.2(a) above, (i) no more than one Blockage

Notice may be given during any 360 day period and (ii) no Blockage Period shall

(a)               In the event of any distribution,

division, or application, partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by

operation of law or otherwise, of all or any part of the assets of any Debtor

or the proceeds thereof to the creditors of any Debtor or readjustment of the

obligations and indebtedness of any Debtor, whether by reason of liquidation,

marshaling of assets of any Debtor or any other action or proceeding involving

the readjustment of all or any part of the indebtedness or other obligations of

any Debtor or the application of the assets of any Debtor to the payment or

liquidation thereof, or upon the dissolution or other winding up of any

Debtor’s business, or upon the sale of all or substantially all of any Debtor’s

10

 

kind or character, whether in cash,

(b)              In order to enable Senior Creditor

Agent (on behalf of itself and the Lenders) to enforce its rights under Section

3.3(a) above, Senior Creditor Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized and

empowered (in its own name or in the name of Junior Creditor or otherwise), but

shall have no obligation, to enforce claims comprising any of the Junior Debt

by proof of debt, proof of claim, suit or otherwise and take generally any

action which Junior Creditor might otherwise be entitled to take, as Senior

Creditor Agent may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of its

rights or interests hereunder, except that Senior Creditor Agent shall not file

any proof of claim on behalf of Junior Creditor, either for itself or on behalf

of Junior Creditor, so long as Junior Creditor has properly filed such proof of

claim at least ten (10) days prior to the last day for which such proof of

claim may be filed.

 

(c)               To the extent necessary for

Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders to realize the benefits of the subordination

of the Junior Debt provided for herein (including the right to receive any

payment and distributions which might otherwise be payable or deliverable in

respect of the Junior Debt in any proceeding described in Section 3.3(a) or

otherwise), Junior Creditor shall execute and deliver to Senior Creditor Agent

such instruments or documents (together with such assignments or endorsements

as Senior Creditor Agent shall deem necessary), as may be reasonably requested

by Senior Creditor Agent.

 

3.4      Payments Received by Junior Creditor.  Except for payments received by Junior

Creditor as provided in Section 3.2 above, should any payment or distribution

or security or instrument or proceeds thereof be received by Junior Creditor in

respect of the Junior Debt, Junior Creditor shall receive and hold the same in

trust, as trustee, for the benefit of Senior Creditor Agent, segregated from

other funds and property of Junior Creditor and shall forthwith deliver the

same to Senior Creditor Agent (together with any endorsement or assignment of

Junior Creditor where necessary), for application to any of the Senior Debt. In

the event of the failure of Junior Creditor to make any such endorsement or

assignment to Senior Creditor Agent, Senior Creditor Agent, or any of its

officers or employees, are hereby irrevocably authorized on behalf of Junior

Creditor to make the same.

 

3.5      Instrument Legend and Notation.  Any instrument at any time evidencing the

Junior Debt, or any portion thereof, shall be permanently marked on its face

with a legend conspicuously indicating that payment thereof is subject to the

terms and conditions of this Intercreditor Agreement. In the event any legend

or endorsement is omitted, Senior Creditor Agent or any of its officers or

employees, are hereby irrevocably authorized on behalf of Junior Creditor to

make the same. No specific legend, further assignment or endorsement or

delivery of notes, guarantees or instruments shall be necessary to subject any

Junior Debt to the terms and conditions of this Intercreditor Agreement.

 

3.6      Rights of Junior Creditor. When all

Senior Debt has been indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full and the Senior

Creditor Agreements have been terminated, Junior Creditor shall have the right

to enforce all of the provisions of the Junior Creditor Agreements and exercise

remedies thereunder against the Collateral.

 

11

 

3.7      Application of Proceeds.

 

(a)               The proceeds of any sale,

disposition or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral shall

be applied in the following order of priorities:

 

(i)            first, to the payment in full in

immediately available funds of the expenses of the collection and enforcement

of the Senior Debt and such sale, disposition or other realization of the Collateral,

including such expenses, liabilities and advances incurred or made by Senior

Creditor Agent or any Lender in connection therewith, or any amounts paid to or

on behalf of Senior Creditor Agent or any Lender in connection therewith;

 

(ii)           second, to the payment in full of all

of the Senior Debt in whatever manner and order Senior Creditor Agent chooses

in accordance with the provisions of the Senior Creditor Agreements and

applicable law (and including amounts to hold as cash collateral for any such

Senior Debt which is contingent in such amounts and on such terms as Senior

Creditor Agent reasonably may require pursuant thereto);

 

(iii)          third, to the Junior Creditor for

payment and satisfaction in full in immediately available funds of all of the Junior

Debt in whatever manner and order Junior Creditor chooses in accordance with

the provisions of the Junior Creditor Agreements and applicable law; and

 

(iv)          fourth, to the Debtors or such other

person as may be lawfully entitled thereto.

 

(b)              Notwithstanding any instruction,

notice or claim to the contrary at any time received by Senior Creditor Agent

from Junior Creditor or otherwise, Senior Creditor Agent shall have no

obligation, liability or responsibility with respect to the distribution,

delivery or remittance of any proceeds of the Collateral to Junior Creditor,

except as specified in the following sentence. 

Any proceeds of Collateral received by Senior Creditor Agent which are

to be applied to the Junior Debt in accordance with the terms hereof are

required to be remitted by Senior Creditor Agent to Junior Creditor.

 

4.                       COVENANTS,

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

4.1      Additional Covenants.  (a) Junior Creditor and Debtors agree in

deliver to Senior Creditor Agent such additional agreements, documents and

of this Intercreditor Agreement.

 

(b)           Junior Creditor represents and

warrants to Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders that:

 

(i)            to the best of the knowledge of the

Junior Creditor, as of the date hereof, no default or event of default, or act,

condition or event which with notice or passage of time or both would

constitute an event of default under any of the Junior Creditor Agreements

exists or has occurred;

 

(ii)           the execution, delivery and

performance of this Intercreditor Agreement by the Junior Creditor is within

its powers and has been authorized by Junior Creditor as provided in, and in

accordance with the requirements of, the Junior Creditor Agreements, and does

not contravene any law, any provision of any of the Junior Creditor Agreements

or any other agreement to which Junior Creditor is a party or by which it is

bound;

 

(iii)          Junior Creditor has not been granted

and has no Liens upon the assets and properties of any Debtor, except the Liens

of Junior Creditor under the Junior Creditor Agreements;

 

(iv)          this Intercreditor Agreement constitutes

the legal, valid and binding agreement of Junior Creditor, and is enforceable

in accordance with its terms and shall be binding on Junior Creditor; and

 

(v)           the Junior Creditor Agreements

provide that this Intercreditor Agreement is the valid and binding agreement of

Junior Creditor and is enforceable in accordance with its terms with respect to

Junior Creditor.

 

4.2      Additional Representations and

Warranties.  Junior Creditor and

Debtors represent and warrant to Senior Creditor Agent that:

 

(a)               as of the date hereof, the total

outstanding principal amount of the Junior Debt is $11,000,000;

 

(b)              as of the date hereof, Junior

Creditor is the exclusive legal and beneficial owner of all of the Junior Debt;

and

 

13

 

(c)               none of the Junior Debt is

subject to any lien, security interest, financing statements, subordination,

assignment or other claim, except for Liens in favor of Junior Creditor and the

subordination set forth herein.

Covenants of Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders.  This Intercreditor Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and

binding obligations of Senior Creditor Agent and each Lender, enforceable in

upon the request of Junior Creditor, promptly furnish to Junior Creditor a

true, correct and complete statement of the outstanding Senior Debt.

 

4.4      Waivers.  Notice of acceptance hereof, the making of loans, advances and

extensions of credit or other financial accommodations to, and the incurring of

any expenses by or in respect of, Debtors by Senior Creditor Agent and Lenders,

and presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest, notice of nonpayment or

default and all other notices to which Junior Creditor and Debtors are or may

be entitled are hereby waived (except as expressly provided for herein or as to

Debtor, in the Senior Creditor Agreements). Junior Creditor also waives notice

of, and hereby consents to, (a) any amendment, modification, supplement,

renewal, restatement or extensions of time of payment of or increase or

decrease in the amount of any of the Senior Debt or to the Senior Creditor

Agreements or any Collateral, (b) the taking, exchange, surrender and releasing

of Collateral or guarantees now or at any time held by or available to Senior

Creditor Agent or any Lender for the Senior Debt or any other person at any

time liable for or in respect of the Senior Debt, (c) the exercise of, or

refraining from the exercise of any rights against Debtors or any other obligor

or any Collateral, (d) the settlement, compromise or release of, or the waiver

of any default with respect to, any of the Senior Debt, and/or (e) Senior

Creditor Agent’s election, in any proceeding instituted under the U.S.

Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the U.S.

Bankruptcy Code. Any of the foregoing shall not, in any manner, affect the

terms hereof or impair the obligations of Junior Creditor hereunder.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as

any Junior Debt is outstanding, (x) the amount of the Senior Debt consisting of

principal (but not interest, costs, expenses or other charges at any time

payable by any Debtor to Senior Creditor Agent or any Lender or charged by

Senior Creditor Agent to the loan account of any Debtor maintained by Senior

Credit Agent) shall not exceed the principal amount of $33,500,000, (y) prior

to an Event of Default under the Senior Credit Agreement, the amount of

principal payments Borrower is required to make in respect of the Senior Debt

shall not increase above the payments specified in the Senior Credit Agreements

as in effect on the date hereof, and (z) the definition of Excess Availability

and the amount thereof required to exist before a payment by Borrower in

respect of the Junior Debt shall not be changed from the applicable provisions

of the Senior Credit Agreements as in effect on the date hereof.  All of the Senior Debt shall be deemed to

have been made or incurred in reliance upon this Intercreditor Agreement.

 

4.5      Waiver of Financial Covenant Defaults.

If an event of default exists under any of the Junior Creditor Agreements

arising out of either the failure by Debtors to comply with Section 6.4, 6.7,

6.12, 6.17 or 6.18 of the Junior Loan Agreement or the failure of any Debtors

to comply with Section 9.4, 9.7, 9.12, 9.17, 9.18 or 9.19 of the Senior Loan

Agreement (each, a “Covenant Default”), then Junior Creditor shall be deemed to

have automatically waived any Covenant Default if and when Senior Creditor

Agent or Lenders waive any event of default under the Senior Creditor

Agreements arising out of such Covenant Default.  Upon the request of

 

14

 

Senior Creditor Agent and at the expense of

Debtors, Junior Creditor shall execute such documents as Senior Creditor Agent

shall reasonably request to evidence the foregoing waiver.

 

4.6      Subrogation; Marshaling.  Junior Creditor shall not be subrogated to,

or be entitled to any assignment of any Senior Debt or of any Collateral or

guarantees or evidence of any thereof until all of the Senior Debt is

indefeasibly paid and satisfied in full and the Senior Creditor Agreements have

been terminated.  Junior Creditor hereby

waives any and all rights to have any Collateral or any part thereof granted to

Senior Creditor Agent marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of

such Collateral by Senior Creditor Agent or Debtors.

 

4.7      No Offset.  In the event Junior Creditor at any time

incurs any obligation to pay money to Debtors, Junior Creditor hereby

irrevocably agrees that it shall pay such obligation in cash or cash

equivalents in accordance with the terms of the contract governing such

obligation and shall not deduct from or setoff against any amounts owed by Junior

Creditor to Debtors in connection with any such transaction any amounts Junior

Creditor claims are due to it with respect to the Junior Debt.

 

4.8      Bailee for Perfection.  Each of Creditors hereby appoints the others

as agent for the purposes of perfecting their respective Liens in and on any of

the Collateral; provided, that, no Creditor shall have any duty or liability to

protect or preserve any rights pertaining to any of the Collateral and, except

for gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined pursuant to a final

non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction, each Creditor hereby

waives, and releases the other Creditors from, all claims and liabilities

arising pursuant to the other’s role as bailee with respect to the Collateral.

 

4.9      Notices of Default.  Each Creditor shall provide the other

Creditor with written notice of any declaration of a default by it under its

respective Agreements concurrently with the sending of same to any Debtor;

provided, that, the failure of either Creditor to do so shall not affect the

terms of this Intercreditor Agreement and shall not create a cause of action

against such Creditor or create any claim against it. The failure by either

Creditor to send a copy of any notice of a declaration of a default to the

other Creditor shall not affect the validity of such notice as against Debtors.

Debtors hereby authorize and consent to each of Creditors sending such notices

and other materials to the other as provided for herein.

 

5.                       MISCELLANEOUS

 

5.1      Amendments.  Any waiver, permit, consent or approval by

any Creditor of or under any provision, condition or covenant to this

Intercreditor Agreement must be in writing and shall be effective only to the

extent it is set forth in writing and as to the specific facts or circumstances

covered thereby. Any amendment of this Intercreditor Agreement must be in

writing and signed by each of the parties to be bound thereby.

 

5.2      Successors and Assigns.

 

(a)               This Intercreditor Agreement

shall be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and

assigns and shall inure to the benefit of each of Creditors and its respective

successors, participants and assigns.

 

15

 

(b)           To the extent provided in their respective

Agreements, each of the Creditors reserves the right to grant participations

in, or otherwise sell, assign, transfer or negotiate all or any part of, or any

interest in, the Senior Debt or Junior Debt, as the case may be, and the

Collateral securing same; provided, that, no Creditor shall be

obligated to give any notices to or otherwise in any manner deal directly with

any participant in the Senior Debt or Junior Debt, as the case may be, and no

participant shall be entitled to any rights or benefits under this

Intercreditor Agreement except through the Creditor from which it acquired its

participation. In connection with any participation or other transfer or

assignment, a Creditor (i) may disclose to such assignee, participant or other

transferee or assignee all documents and information which such Creditor now or

hereafter may have relating to any Debtor or the Collateral and (ii) shall

disclose to such participant or other transferee or assignee the existence and

terms and conditions of this Intercreditor Agreement. In the case of an

assignment or transfer, the assignee or transferee acquiring any interest in

the Senior Debt or the Junior Debt, as the case may be, shall execute and

deliver to each of Creditors a written acknowledgement of receipt of a copy of

this Intercreditor Agreement and the written agreement by such person to be

bound by the terms of this Intercreditor Agreement.

 

(c)           In connection with any assignment or

transfer of any or all of the Senior Debt or Junior Debt, as the case may be,

or any or all rights of any Creditor in the property of any Debtor (other than

pursuant to a participation), each of the Creditors agrees to execute and

deliver an agreement containing terms substantially identical to those

contained herein in favor of any such assignee or transferee and, in addition,

will execute and deliver an agreement containing terms substantially identical

to those contained herein in favor of any third person who succeeds to or

refinances, replaces or substitutes for any or all of Senior Creditor Agent’s

and Lenders’ financing of any Debtor, whether such successor or replacement

financing occurs by transfer, assignment, “takeout” or any other means or

vehicle.

 

5.3      Insolvency.  This Intercreditor Agreement shall be

applicable both before and after the filing of any petition by or against any

Debtor under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, all state or foreign insolvency statutes

and all converted or succeeding cases in respect thereof, and all references

herein to any Debtor shall be deemed to apply to a trustee for any Debtor and

any Debtor as debtor-in-possession. The relative rights of Senior Creditor

Agent, Lenders, and Junior Creditor to repayment of the Senior Debt and the

Junior Debt, respectively, and in or to any distributions from or in respect of

any Debtor or any Collateral or proceeds of Collateral, shall continue after

the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition,

subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash

collateral by, any Debtor as debtor-in-possession.

 

5.4      Bankruptcy Financing.  If any Debtor shall become subject to a

proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code and if Senior Creditor Agent and

Lenders desire to permit the use of cash collateral or to provide financing to

such Debtor under either Section 363 or Section 364 of the U.S. Bankruptcy

Code, Junior Creditor agrees as follows: (a) adequate notice to Junior Creditor

shall have been provided for such financing or use of cash collateral if Junior

Creditor receives notice three (3) business days prior to the entry of the

order approving such financing or use of cash collateral and (b) no objection

will be raised by Junior Creditor to any such financing or use of cash

collateral on the ground of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for

Junior Creditor’s junior Liens on the Collateral or any other grounds, provided

Junior Creditor retains a

 

16

 

Lien on the post-petition Collateral with the

same priority as existed prior to the commencement of the proceeding under the

U.S. Bankruptcy Code. For purposes of this Section, notice of a proposed

financing or use of cash collateral shall be deemed given when given, in the

manner prescribed by Section 5.5 hereof, to Junior Creditor.

 

5.5      Notices.  All notices, requests and demands to or upon the respective

parties hereto shall be in writing and shall be deemed duly given, made or

received: if delivered in person, immediately upon delivery; if by telex, telegram

or facsimile transmission, immediately upon sending and upon confirmation of

receipt; if by nationally recognized overnight courier service with

instructions to deliver the next business day, one (1) business day after

express or implied, nor do they assume any liability to each other with respect

  Date of Issuance: March 31, 2003

  	

   

  	

  Certificate No. W-1

  

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, Mackie Designs Inc., a Washington

corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to Sun Mackie, LLC, a Delaware

limited liability company, or its registered assigns (the “Registered Holder”)

the right to purchase from the Company 1,179,429 shares of the Common Stock

(the “Common Stock”), no par value, of the Company, less the number of shares

of Common Stock already issued, if any, in connection with partial exercises of

this Warrant, at a price per share of $.01 (the “Exercise Price”).  The amount and kind of securities obtainable

pursuant to the rights granted hereunder are subject to adjustment pursuant to

the provisions contained in this Warrant.

 

For tax purposes, the value of this Warrant as of the

date hereof is $589,714.50.

 

This Warrant is subject to the following provisions:

 

Section 1.               Exercise of Warrant.

 

1A.          Exercise

Period.  The Registered Holder may

exercise, in whole or in part (but not as to a fractional share of Common

Stock), the purchase rights represented by this Warrant at any time and from

time to time after the Date of Issuance to and including March

    , 2008 (the “Exercise Period”).  The Company shall give the Registered Holder

written notice of the expiration of the Exercise Period at least 30 days, but

not more than 90 days, prior to the end of the Exercise Period.

 

1B.          Exercise

Procedure.

 

(i)            This

Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised when the Company has received

all of the following items (the “Exercise Time”):

 

 

(a)           a

completed Exercise Agreement, in the form set forth in Section 1C below,

executed by the person exercising all or part of the purchase rights

represented by this Warrant (the “Purchaser”);

 

(b)           this

Warrant;

 

(c)           if

this Warrant is not registered in the name of the Purchaser, an Assignment or

Assignments in the form set forth in Exhibit II hereto evidencing the

assignment of this Warrant, or part thereof, to the Purchaser, in which case

the Registered Holder shall have complied with the provisions set forth in

Section 7 hereof; and

 

(d)           either

(1) a check payable to the Company in an amount equal to the product of the

Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock being

purchased upon such exercise (the “Aggregate Exercise Price”), (2) the

surrender to the Company of debt or equity securities of the Company having a

Market Price (as defined below) equal to the Aggregate Exercise Price of the

Common Stock being purchased upon such exercise (provided that for purposes of

this subparagraph, the Market Price of any note or other debt security or any

preferred stock shall be deemed to be equal to the aggregate outstanding

principal amount or liquidation value thereof plus all accrued and unpaid

interest thereon or accrued or declared and unpaid dividends thereon) or (3) a

written notice to the Company that the Purchaser is exercising the Warrant (or

a portion thereof) by authorizing the Company to withhold from issuance a

number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon such exercise of the Warrant

which when multiplied by the Market Price of the Common Stock is equal to the

Aggregate Exercise Price (and such withheld shares shall no longer be issuable

under this Warrant).  The “Market Price”

shall be the average of the closing bid and asked share prices quoted for the

Company’s Common Stock on the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board or, if the Company’s Common Stock is then

traded on The Nasdaq Stock Market or an exchange, the average of the high and

low share prices of the Company’s Common Stock reported on The Nasdaq Stock

Market or such exchange.

 

(ii)           Certificates

for shares of Common Stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant shall be

delivered by the Company to the Purchaser within five business days after the

date of the Exercise Time.  Unless this

Warrant has expired or all of the purchase rights represented hereby have been

exercised, the Company shall prepare a new Warrant, substantially identical

hereto, representing the rights formerly represented by this Warrant which have

not expired or been exercised and shall, within such five-day period, deliver

such new Warrant to the person designated for delivery in the Exercise

Agreement.

 

(iii)          The

Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be deemed to have

been issued to the Purchaser at the Exercise Time, and the Purchaser shall be

deemed for all purposes to have become the record holder of such Common Stock

at the Exercise Time.

 

(iv)          The

issuance of certificates for shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this

Warrant shall be made without charge to the Registered Holder or the Purchaser

for any 

 

2

 

issuance tax in

respect thereof or other cost incurred by the Company in connection with such

exercise and the related issuance of shares of Common Stock.  Each share of Common Stock issuable upon

exercise of this Warrant shall, upon payment of the Exercise Price therefor, be

fully paid and nonassessable and free from all liens and charges with respect

to the issuance thereof.

 

(v)           The

Company shall not close its books against the transfer of this Warrant or of

any share of Common Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of this Warrant

in any manner which interferes with the timely exercise of this Warrant.

 

(vi)          The

Company shall assist and cooperate with any Registered Holder or Purchaser

required to make any governmental filings or obtain any governmental approvals

prior to or in connection with any exercise of this Warrant (including, without

limitation, making any filings required to be made by the Company).

 

(vii)         Notwithstanding

any other provision hereof, if an exercise of any portion of this Warrant is to

be made in connection with a registered public offering or the sale of the

Company, the exercise of any portion of this Warrant may, at the election of

the holder hereof, be conditioned upon the consummation of the public offering

or sale of the Company in which case such exercise shall not be deemed to be

effective until the consummation of such transaction.

 

(viii)        The

Company shall at all times reserve and keep available out of its authorized but

unissued shares of Common Stock solely for the purpose of issuance upon the

exercise of the Warrant, such number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon

the exercise of the Warrant.  All shares

of Common Stock which are so issuable shall, when issued, be duly and validly

issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and

charges.  The Company shall take all

such actions as may be necessary to assure that all such shares of Common Stock

may be so issued without violation of any applicable law or governmental

regulation or any requirements of any domestic securities exchange upon which

shares of Common Stock may be listed (except for official notice of issuance

which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such

issuance).  The Company shall not take

any action which would cause the number of authorized but unissued shares of

Common Stock to be less than the number of such shares required to be reserved

hereunder for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants.

 

1C.          Exercise

Agreement.  Upon any exercise of

this Warrant, the Exercise Agreement shall be substantially in the form set

forth in Exhibit I hereto, except that if the shares of Common Stock are not to

be issued in the name of the person in whose name this Warrant is registered,

the Exercise Agreement shall also state the name of the person to whom the

certificates for the shares of Common Stock are to be issued, and if the number

of shares of Common Stock to be issued does not include all the shares of Common

Stock purchasable hereunder, it shall also state the name of the person to whom

a new Warrant for the unexercised portion of the rights hereunder is to be

delivered.  Such Exercise Agreement

shall be dated the actual date of execution thereof.

 

3

 

1D.          Fractional

Shares.  If a fractional share of

Common Stock would, but for the provisions of Section 1A, be issuable upon

exercise of the rights represented by this Warrant, the Company shall, within

five business days after the date of the Exercise Time, deliver to the

Purchaser a check payable to the Purchaser in lieu of such fractional share in

an amount equal to the difference between the Market Price of such fractional

share as of the date of the Exercise Time and the Exercise Price of such

fractional share.

 

Section 2.               Dilution Protection.

 

2A.          Subdivision

or Combination of Shares.  If the

Company at any time subdivides (by any stock split, distribution,

recapitalization or otherwise) its outstanding Common Stock into a greater

number of shares of Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock into

which this Warrant is exercisable in effect immediately prior to such

subdivision will be proportionately increased. 

If the Company at any time combines (by reverse stock split or

otherwise) its outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of

Common Stock, the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Warrant is

exercisable in effect immediately prior to such combination will be proportionately

decreased.

 

2B.          Reorganization,

Reclassification, Consolidation, Merger or Sale.  Any recapitalization, reorganization, reclassification,

consolidation, merger, sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets

or other transaction, in each case which is effected in such a way that the

holders of Common Stock are entitled to receive (either directly or upon

subsequent liquidation) stock, securities or assets with respect to or in

exchange for Common Stock, is referred to herein as “Organic Change”.  Prior to the consummation of any Organic

Change, the Company shall make appropriate provision (in form and substance

satisfactory to the Registered Holders of the Warrant representing a majority

of the Common Stock obtainable upon exercise of all of the Warrant then

outstanding) to insure that each of the Registered Holders of the Warrant shall

thereafter have the right to acquire and receive, in lieu of or addition to (as

the case may be) the shares of Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable

and receivable upon the exercise of such holder’s Warrant, such shares of

stock, securities or assets as would have been issued or payable in such

Organic Change (if the holder had exercised this Warrant immediately prior to

such Organic Change) with respect to or in exchange for the number of shares of

Common Stock immediately theretofore acquirable and receivable upon exercise of

such holder’s Warrant had such Organic Change not taken place.  In any such case, the Company shall make

appropriate provision (in form and substance satisfactory to the Registered

Holders of the Warrant representing a majority of the Common Stock acquirable

and receivable upon exercise of all of the Warrant then outstanding) with

respect to such holders’ rights and interests to insure that the provisions of

this Section 2 and Sections 3 and 4 hereof shall thereafter be applicable to

the Warrant (including, in the case of any such consolidation, merger or sale

in which the successor entity or purchasing entity is other than the Company,

an immediate adjustment in the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and

receivable upon exercise of the Warrant based on the relative value of the

Common Stock and the common stock of the successor entity or purchasing

entity).  The Company shall not effect

any such consolidation, merger or sale, unless prior to the consummation

thereof, the successor entity (if other than the Company) resulting from

consolidation or merger or the entity purchasing such assets assumes by written

instrument (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Registered

Holders of the 

 

4

 

Warrant representing a majority of the shares of

Common Stock originally acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrant,

excluding any shares previously issued under the Warrant), the obligation to

deliver to each such holder such shares of stock, securities or assets as, in

accordance with the foregoing provisions, such holder may be entitled to

acquire.

 

2C.          Notices.

 

(i)            The

Company shall give written notice to the Registered Holder at least 20 days

prior to the date on which the Company closes its books or takes a record (A)

with respect to any dividend or distribution upon the Common Stock, (B) with

respect to any pro rata subscription offer to holders of Common Stock or

(C) for determining rights to vote with respect to any Organic Change,

dissolution or liquidation.

 

(ii)           The

Company shall give written notice to the Registered Holders at least 20 days

prior to the date on which any Organic Change, dissolution or liquidation shall

take place.

 

Section 3.               Liquidating Dividends.  If the Company declares or pays a dividend

upon the Common Stock payable otherwise than in cash out of earnings or earned

surplus (determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting

principles, consistently applied) except for a stock dividend payable in shares

of Common Stock (a “Liquidating Dividend”), then the Company shall pay to the

Registered Holder of this Warrant (or any person designated by the Registered

Holder) at the time of payment thereof the Liquidating Dividend which would

have been paid to such Registered Holder on the Common Stock had the number of

shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant

(excluding any shares previously issued under the Warrant) been fully exercised

immediately prior to the date on which a record is taken for such Liquidating

Dividend, or, if no record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of

Common Stock entitled to such dividends are to be determined.

 

Section 4.               Purchase Rights.  If at any time the Company grants, issues or

sells any options, convertible securities or rights to purchase stock,

warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any

class of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Registered Holder of

this Warrant (or any person designated by the Registered Holder) shall be

entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the

aggregate number of Purchase Rights which such holder could have acquired if

such holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable and

receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (excluding any shares previously

issued under the Warrant) immediately before the date on which a record is

taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such

record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of Common Stock are to

be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights.

 

Section 5.               No Voting Rights; Limitations

of Liability.  This Warrant shall

not entitle the holder hereof to any voting rights or other rights as a

shareholder of the Company.  No

provision hereof, in the absence of affirmative action by the Registered Holder

to purchase Common Stock, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges

of the Registered Holder 

 

5

 

shall give rise to any

liability of such holder for the Exercise Price of Common Stock acquirable by

exercise hereof or as a shareholder of the Company.

 

Section 6.               Legend.  The Common Stock issued upon conversion of

this Warrant shall not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933,

as amended, and will be issued in reliance upon an exemption from the

registration requirements thereof. 

Pursuant to the foregoing, the Registered Holder of this Warrant

acknowledges that the certificates representing the shares issued upon

conversion of this Warrant shall each bear a restrictive legend substantially

as follows:

 

THESE SECURITIES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE UNITED STATES

SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR UNDER ANY OTHER APPLICABLE SECURITIES

LAWS.  THEY MAY NOT BE SOLD, OFFERED FOR

SALE, ASSIGNED, PLEDGED, HYPOTHECATED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF WITHOUT

EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND LAWS OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM.

 

Section 7.               Warrant Transferable.  Subject to the transfer conditions referred

to in the legend endorsed hereon, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are

transferable, in whole or in part, without charge to the Registered Holder,

upon surrender of this Warrant with a properly executed Assignment (in the form

of Exhibit II hereto) at the principal office of the Company.

 

Section 8.               Warrant Exchangeable for

Different Denominations.  This

Warrant is exchangeable, upon the surrender hereof by the Registered Holder at

the principal office of the Company, for a new Warrant or Warrants of like

tenor representing in the aggregate the purchase rights hereunder, and each such

new Warrant shall represent such portion of such rights as is designated by the

Registered Holder at the time of such surrender.  The date the Company initially issues this Warrant shall be

deemed to be the “Date of Issuance” hereof regardless of the number of times

new certificates representing the unexpired and unexercised rights formerly

represented by this Warrants shall be issued. 

All Warrants representing portions of the rights hereunder are referred

to herein as the “Warrant”.

 

Section 9.               Replacement.  Upon receipt of evidence reasonably

satisfactory to the Company (an affidavit of the Registered Holder shall be

satisfactory) of the ownership and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation

of any certificate evidencing this Warrant, and in the case of any such loss,

theft or destruction, upon receipt of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the

Company (provided that if the holder is a financial institution or other

institutional investor its own agreement shall be satisfactory), or, in the

case of any such mutilation upon surrender of such certificate, the Company

shall (at its expense) execute and deliver in lieu of such certificate a new

certificate of like kind representing the same rights represented by such lost,

stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate and dated the date of such lost,

stolen, destroyed or mutilated certificate.

 

Section 10.             Notices.  Except as otherwise expressly provided

herein, all notices referred to in this Warrant shall be in writing and shall

be delivered personally, sent by reputable overnight courier service (charges

prepaid) or sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt 

 

6

 

requested, postage

prepaid and shall be deemed to have been given when so delivered, sent or

deposited in the U.S. Mail (i) to the Company, at its principal executive

offices and (ii) to the Registered Holder of this Warrant, at such holder’s

address as it appears in the records of the Company (unless otherwise indicated

by any such holder).

 

Section 11.             Amendment and Waiver.  Except as otherwise provided herein, the

provisions of the Warrant may be amended and the Company may take any action

herein prohibited, or omit to perform any act herein required to be performed

by it, only if the Company has obtained the written consent of the Registered

Holders of the Warrant representing a majority of the shares of Common Stock

originally acquirable and receivable upon exercise of the Warrant, excluding

any shares previously issued under the Warrant.

 

Section 12.             Descriptive Headings; Governing

Law.  The descriptive headings of

the several Sections and paragraphs of this Warrant are inserted for

convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Warrant.  The corporation laws of the State of Washington

shall govern all issues concerning the relative rights of the Company and its

shareholders.  All other questions

concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this

Warrant shall be governed by the internal law of the State of Delaware, without

giving effect to any choice of law or conflict of law provision or rule

(whether of the State of Delaware or any other jurisdictions) that would cause

the application of the laws of any jurisdictions other than the State of

Delaware.
