INTRODUCTION

 

Reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of July 3, 2006 (as modified from time to time, the "Credit Agreement"), among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the "Lenders" and individually, a "Lender"), and the Administrative Agent.

 

The Borrower is seeking the flexibility to negotiate, either directly or indirectly, with certain holders of Convertible Senior Notes to extend the initial repurchase date with respect to certain of the Convertible Senior Notes and to make certain other modifications in connection with such extension, and in connection therewith, the Borrower has requested, and the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have agreed, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, to make certain technical amendments to the Credit Agreement.

 

THEREFORE, in connection with the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the Borrower, the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Definitions; References.  Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, each term used in this Amendment that is defined in the Credit Agreement has the meaning assigned to such term in the Credit Agreement.

 

Section 2. Amendment of Credit Agreement.

 

(a) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the definition of "Convertible Notes Indenture" in its entirety with the following:

 

"Convertible Notes Indenture" means (a) the indenture dated as of March 30, 2005, between the Borrower and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as Trustee (the "Initial Indenture"), and (b) any other indenture constituting a refinancing, in whole or in part, of Indebtedness under the Initial Indenture in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including any refinancing of any such refinancing Indebtedness.

 

(b) Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the definition of "Convertible Senior Notes" in its entirety with the following:

 

"Convertible Senior Notes" means (a) 3.25% Convertible Senior Notes due 2025 of the Borrower issued pursuant to the indenture dated as of March 30, 2005, between the Borrower and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as Trustee, and (b) any other convertible senior notes issued pursuant to a Convertible Notes Indenture.

 

  

  

  

 

Section 3. Representations and Warranties.  The Borrower represents and warrants that (a) the execution, delivery, and performance of this Amendment by each Loan Party are within the corporate or equivalent power and authority of such Loan Party and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action, (b) this Amendment, and the Credit Agreement as amended hereby, constitute legal, valid, and binding obligations of each Loan Party, enforceable against each Loan Party in accordance with their terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws of general applicability affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights and the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or law); (c) the representations and warranties of the Borrower and each other Loan Party contained in each Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects as of the date of this Amendment, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date and except that for purposes of this Section 3(c), the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of Section 5.05 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements, Reserve Report, or Interim Engineer's Certificate, as applicable, furnished pursuant to clauses (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.01 of the Credit Agreement or clause (f) of Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, as applicable; (d) no Default or Event of Default exists under the Loan Documents; and (e) the Liens under the Security Documents are valid and subsisting.

 

Section 4. Effect on Credit Documents.  Except as heretofore amended and in effect and amended herein, the Credit Agreement and all other Loan Documents remain in full force and effect as originally executed.  Nothing herein shall act as a waiver of any of the Administrative Agent's or any Lender's rights under the Loan Documents as amended, including the waiver of any default or event of default, however denominated.  Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that this Amendment shall in no manner impair or affect the validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, as amended hereby.  This Amendment is a Loan Document for the purposes of the provisions of the other Loan Documents.  Without limiting the foregoing, any breach of representations, warranties, and covenants under this Amendment may be a default or event of default under the other Loan Documents.

 

Section 5. Effectiveness.  This Amendment shall become effective, and the Credit Agreement shall be amended as provided for herein as of the date first set forth above, when the Administrative Agent (or its counsel) shall have received counterparts hereof duly executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of the Borrower, each Guarantor, and by the Lenders whose consent is required to effect the amendments contemplated hereby.

 

Section 6. Reaffirmation of Guaranty.  By its signature hereto, each Guarantor represents and warrants that such Guarantor has no defense to the enforcement of the Guaranty, and that according to its terms the Guaranty will continue in full force and effect to guaranty the Borrower's obligations under the Credit Agreement and the other amounts described in the Guaranty following the execution of this Amendment.

 

Section 7. Governing Law.  THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

  

  

  

 

Section 8. Miscellaneous.  The miscellaneous provisions set forth in Article X of the Credit Agreement apply to this Amendment.  This Amendment may be signed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original, and may be executed and delivered electronically, including by telecopier and portable digital format (.PDF).

(a)Each party hereto shall, as promptly as possible, (i) make, or cause or be made, all filings and submissions required under any Law applicable to such party; (ii) use reasonable best efforts to respond to any inquiries by any Governmental Authority, including the Bankruptcy Court, regarding matters with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated hereby; (iii) avoid the imposition of any order or the taking of any action that would restrain, alter or enjoin the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any agreement or document contemplated hereby; and (iv) use reasonable best efforts to obtain, or cause to be obtained, all consents, authorizations, orders and approvals from all Governmental Authorities or other Person that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of this Agreement and the performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

(a)by the mutual written consent of Purchaser and the Selling Stockholders;

(b)by Purchaser by written notice to the Selling Stockholders if:

(i)there has been a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 4.1 or 4.2 and such breach, inaccuracy or failure is incapable of being cured by July 15, 2012 (the “Outside Date”) or, if capable of being so cured, has not been cured by the Selling Stockholders within ten Business Days of the Selling Stockholders' receipt of written notice of such breach, inaccuracy, or failure of Purchaser; provided, that (x) such failure shall not be due to the failure of Purchaser to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing and (y) there is not then a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser pursuant this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3; or

(ii)any of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.2 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, satisfied by the Outside Date, unless such failure shall be due to any breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement;

(c)by the Selling Stockholders by written notice to Purchaser if:

(i)there has been a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 4.1 or 4.3 and such breach, inaccuracy or failure is incapable of being cured by the Outside Date or, if capable of being so cured, has not been cured by Purchaser within ten Business Days of the Purchaser's receipt of written notice of such breach, inaccuracy, or failure of the Selling Stockholders; provided, that (x) such failure shall not be due to the failure of the Selling Stockholders to perform or comply with any of the covenants, agreements or conditions hereof to be performed or complied with by it prior to the Closing and (y) there is not then a breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Selling Stockholders pursuant this Agreement that would give rise to the failure of any of the conditions specified in Section 4.1 or 4.2; or

(ii)any of the conditions set forth in Section 4.1 or 4.3 shall not have been, or if it becomes apparent that any of such conditions will not be, satisfied by the Outside Date, unless such 

failure shall be due to any breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this Agreement;

(d)by Purchaser or the Selling Stockholders in the event that: (i) there shall be any Law that makes consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited; (ii) any Governmental Authority shall have issued any order, decree or injunction or taken any other action restraining, enjoining or prohibiting any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order, decree, injunction or other action shall have become final and non-appealable; (iii) the Closing shall not have occurred on or prior to the Outside Date (provided that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section 6.1(d)(iii) shall not be available to any party whose breach of any provision of this Agreement results in the failure of the Closing to occur by such time); or (iv) the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by June 10, 2012. 

6.2    Termination Fee.

(a)Subject to Sections 6.2(b) and 6.2(c), Purchaser shall pay the Termination Fee to Afinsa (on behalf of Afinsa and Auctentia) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to an account or accounts in Spain specified by the Selling Stockholders, no later than 3 Business Days after termination of this Agreement:

(i)if all of the conditions set forth in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 (other than Sections 4.2(d) and 4.2(e)) have been satisfied (except for those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing which conditions were capable of being satisfied had the Closing occurred on the termination date) and Purchaser terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(ii) as a result of the failure of the condition set forth in Section 4.2(d) to be satisfied (provided that the failure of such condition to be satisfied shall not have resulted in any material respect by any breach of this Agreement by the Selling Stockholders);

(ii)the Selling Stockholders terminate this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(c)(i), unless such termination is based on a breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made by Purchaser in this Agreement, which breach or inaccuracy is not material; or

(iii)any party terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 6.1(b)(ii), (c)(ii) or (d) and such termination, or the facts and circumstances resulting in such termination, arise from any material breach, inaccuracy in or failure to perform any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement made by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement (other than a breach of the representation set forth in Section 3.2(b)(iii) as a result of litigation filed after the date hereof).

(b)Purchaser shall pay the Willful Termination Fee to Afinsa (on behalf of Afinsa and Auctentia) in cash by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts in Spain specified by the Selling Stockholders no later than 3 Business Days after termination of this Agreement if there has been a willful and material breach by Purchaser of a covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement and such breach is a basis for such termination regardless of the section under which this Agreement was terminated (provided that the Selling Stockholders have not willfully and materially breached this Agreement). 

(c)Notwithstanding Section 6.2(a), so as long as Purchaser has complied with its obligations under this Agreement, no Termination Fee or Willful Termination Fee will be payable if the Registration Statement has not been declared effective by June 10, 2012.  

(d)In no event shall Purchaser be required to pay the Termination Fee or Willful Termination Fee on more than one occasion, and, for the avoidance of doubt, the Selling Stockholders cannot receive both the Termination Fee and the Willful Termination Fee. 

(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Selling Stockholders' right to receive payment of the Termination Fee or Willful Termination Fee when payable pursuant to this Section 6.2, as the case may be, shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the Selling Stockholders or any of their respective Representatives against Purchaser or any of its Representatives for any and all losses that may be suffered under or in connection with this Agreement (including as a result of any and all breaches or violations of this Agreement). Upon payment of the Termination Fee or Willful Termination Fee in accordance with Section 6.2 (or the termination of this Agreement in circumstances in which the Termination Fee or Willful Termination Fee, as applicable, is not payable), neither of Purchaser nor any of its Representatives shall have any further liability or obligation relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the Selling Stockholders and their respective Representatives shall have no further remedies of any kind against Purchaser or any of its Representatives.

(f)The parties acknowledge that the agreements contained in this Section 6.2 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and that, without these agreements, the parties would not enter into this Agreement.  Each of the parties further acknowledge that the Termination Fee and Willful Termination Fee, as applicable, are not a penalty, but are liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Selling Stockholders in the circumstances in which such fees are payable for the efforts and resources expended and the opportunities foregone while negotiating this Agreement and in reliance on this Agreement and on the expectation of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, which amount would otherwise be impossible to calculate with precision.

6.3    Effect of Termination.  In the event of termination of this Agreement in accordance with this Article VI, this Agreement shall be of no further force or effect; provided, however, that (i) this Article VI and Article VII will survive the termination of this Agreement and will remain in full force and effect, and (ii) that nothing herein shall relieve either Selling Stockholder from liability for any willful and material breach of any provision of this Agreement occurring prior to termination.

ARTICLE VII

7.5     Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Agreement or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. 

7.6    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, together with any other documents incorporated herein by reference and all related exhibits, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the parties to this Agreement with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. In the event of any inconsistency between the statements in the body of this Agreement and the related exhibits, the statements in the body of this Agreement shall control.

7.7    Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may only be amended, modified or supplemented by an agreement in writing signed by each party hereto.

7.8    Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the provisions hereof shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. No waiver by any party shall operate or be construed as a waiver in respect of any failure, breach or default not expressly identified by such written waiver, whether of a similar or different character, and whether occurring before or after that waiver. No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor, subject in all cases to Section 6.2, shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

7.9    Cumulative Remedies. The rights and remedies under this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to and not in substitution for any other rights and remedies available at Law or in equity or otherwise, except to the extent expressly provided in Article VI to the contrary.

7.10    Equitable Remedies. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that a breach or threatened breach by any party of any of their obligations under this Agreement would give rise to irreparable harm to the other parties to this Agreement (in each instance a, “Non-Breaching Party”) for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and hereby agrees that in the event of a breach or a threatened breach by a party of any such obligations, any Non-Breaching Party shall, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies that may be available to it in respect of such breach, be entitled to equitable relief, including a temporary restraining order, an injunction, specific performance and any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction (without any requirement to post bond). For the avoidance of doubt, the Selling Stockholders shall not have the right under this Section 7.10 to obtain equitable relief, an injunction, specific performance or any other relief that may be available from a court of competent jurisdiction to cause the consummation of the Closing if the conditions set forth in Sections 

4.2(d) and (e) have not been satisfied. 

7.11    Assignment.  Neither party may assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 7.11 shall be null and void. Without limiting the foregoing, no assignment shall relieve the assigning party of any of its obligations hereunder.

7.12    Successors and Assigns. Without limiting Section 7.11, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and permitted assigns.

7.13    No Third-party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is for the sole benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and nothing herein, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other person or entity any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement.

7.14    Governing Law. All matters arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal Laws of the State of New York without giving effect to any choice or conflict of Law provision or rule (whether of the State of New York or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of Laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of New York.

7.15    Submission to Jurisdiction. Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of, based upon or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby shall be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City of New York and County of New York, and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts in any such suit, action or proceeding. Service of process, summons, notice or other document in accordance with Section 7.4 shall be effective service of process for any suit, action or other proceeding brought in any such court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding in such courts and irrevocably waive and agree not to plead or claim in any such court that any such suit, action or proceeding brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum.

7.16    Waiver of Jury Trial. Each party acknowledges and agrees that any controversy which may arise under this Agreement is likely to involve complicated and difficult issues and, therefore, each such party irrevocably and unconditionally waives any right it may have to a trial by jury in respect of any legal action arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby. 

7.17    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by facsimile, e-mail or other means of electronic transmission shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement.

5.The execution and delivery by each Selling Stockholder of the Agreement, and the consummation and performance by each Selling Stockholder of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not result in a breach or violation of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default (or event that with the giving or notice or lapse of time would become a breach or default) under (i) any of the organizational documents of such Selling Stockholder, (ii) any material agreement or instrument to which such Selling Stockholder is a party or by which such Selling Stockholder is bound, or (iii) any Law applicable to such Selling Stockholder, except, in the case of the foregoing clauses (ii) and (iii), where any such breach or violation would not, individually or in the aggregate, prevent or materially delay such Selling Stockholder's ability to meet or perform its obligations under the Agreement. 

6.The execution and delivery by each Selling Stockholder of the Agreement, and the consummation by such Selling Stockholder of the transactions contemplated thereby, do not require consent, approval or authorization from any Governmental Authority under any applicable Law, other than the Approval Order, which has been obtained.

7.The Approval Order has been issued and remains in full force and effect, and constitutes the approval by the Bankruptcy Court of the transactions contemplated by the Agreement. The performance of the Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated therein will not be adversely affected by any appeal of the Approval Order.
