FIRSTENERGY CORP.
2015 Incentive Compensation Plan
2019 Restricted Stock Award Agreement

THIS RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”), effective as of ____________ (the “Effective Date”), is entered into by and between FirstEnergy Corp., an Ohio corporation, and its successors (the “Company”), and [NAME] (the “Grantee”). 
1.Definitions.  Unless otherwise specified in this Agreement, capitalized terms shall have the meanings attributed to them under the FirstEnergy Corp. 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan, as amended from time to time (the “Plan”). 

2.Grant of Restricted Stock.   As of the Effective Date, the Company grants to the Grantee, upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and subject to the restrictions in Section 3, [NUMBER] Shares, par value $0.10 per share, of FirstEnergy Corp. (“Restricted Stock”). The Restricted Stock is granted in accordance with, and subject to, all the terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety. The Grantee irrevocably agrees to, and accepts, the terms, conditions and restrictions of the Plan and this Agreement on his own behalf and on behalf of any heirs, successors and assigns. 

3.Restrictions on Restricted Stock. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Grantee cannot sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of the Restricted Stock or pledge any share of Restricted Stock as collateral for a loan, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  In no event may any share of Restricted Stock or this Award be transferred for value.  In addition, the Restricted Stock will be subject to such other restrictions as the Committee deems necessary or appropriate. 

4.Lapse of Restrictions on Restricted Stock.  Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6 and 7, the restrictions described in Section 3 (the “Restrictions”) shall lapse and be of no further force or effect with respect to 100% of the Restricted Stock if Grantee remains in the continuous employ of the Company or any Subsidiary until [DATE] (the “Vesting Condition”).  So long as the Grantee continues to be an Employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, he or she shall not be considered to have experienced a termination of employment because of: (i) any temporary leave of absence approved in writing by the Company or such Subsidiary; or (ii) any change of duties or position (including transfer from one Subsidiary to another). 

5.Forfeiture.   Except as otherwise provided in Sections 6 and 7, the Grantee will forfeit any and all interests in the Restricted Stock if (a) the Grantee’s employment with the Company or its Subsidiaries terminates prior to the satisfaction of the Vesting Condition set forth in Section 4 or (b) the Grantee attempts to sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate or hypothecate the Restricted Stock or the right to receive the Restricted Stock in violation of this Agreement.

6.Certain Events.  Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary,

    

(a)    Death or Disability.   If the Grantee dies or incurs a Disability while an Employee of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time prior to [DATE], then the Restrictions will immediately lapse and the Grantee (or Grantee’s estate in the event of the Grantee’s death) will become 100% vested in the Restricted Stock upon such death or Disability.

(b)    Termination without Cause.  Subject to Section 7, if the Grantee’s employment is terminated without Cause by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries at any time prior to [DATE], then the Restrictions shall lapse on a prorated portion of the Restricted Stock upon such termination of employment; provided that the Grantee executes and delivers to the Company (and does not revoke) a general waiver and release of claims in a form approved by the Company. The prorated amount will be calculated by multiplying the number of Shares of Restricted Stock by a fraction, in which the numerator is the number of full calendar months the Grantee remained in the continuous employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries from the Effective Date until the date of termination and the denominator is the number of full calendar months between the Effective Date and [DATE].  Subject to Section 7, any amount that does not vest pursuant to this Section 6(b) will be forfeited as of the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment.  

7.    Change in Control.  If a Change in Control occurs, the Restricted Stock shall become subject to the terms and conditions of Article 16 of the Plan.
8.    Issuance of Shares.  As soon as practicable after lapse of the Restrictions, as provided under Section 4, 6 or 7, the Company will deliver to the Grantee (or his or her estate) the Shares to which the Grantee is entitled free and clear of any Restrictions (except any applicable securities law restrictions); provided, however, that, no fractional Shares will be delivered and any fractional Shares to which the Grantee would otherwise be entitled will be paid in cash. 
9.    Withholding.  Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, unless the Committee determines otherwise, the Company shall withhold Shares in an amount not to exceed the maximum amount necessary to satisfy all federal, state, and local taxes to be withheld in connection with the delivery of Shares granted or delivered under this Agreement.
10.    Stockholder Rights During Period of Restriction.  During the period the Restricted Stock is subject to the Restrictions, the Grantee will be entitled to vote the Restricted Stock and to receive dividends declared and paid by the Company on such Restricted Stock; provided, however, that dividends payable shall be automatically reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock that are subject to the same restrictions as the shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder. 
11.    Recoupment.  If the Grantee is or has been deemed to be, or becomes, an “insider” for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), this Agreement will be administered in compliance with Section 10D of the Exchange Act, any applicable rules or regulations promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any national securities exchange or national securities association on which the Shares may be traded, and subject to the Company’s Executive Compensation Recoupment Policy, as amended from time 

2

to time, or any other Company policy adopted pursuant to such law, rules, or regulations and this Agreement may be amended to further such purpose without the consent of the Grantee.
12.    Code Section 83(b) Elections.  The Grantee will not make an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to recognize taxable ordinary income in the year the Restricted Stock is granted (or dividends are reinvested). The Grantee understands that by not making such an election, he or she will recognize taxable ordinary income at the time the Restrictions lapse in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Shares at that time.
13.    Non-Transferability and Legends.  The Restricted Stock has not been registered for resale under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and may not be sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of unless a registration statement under the Act with respect to the Restricted Stock has become effective or unless the Grantee establishes to the satisfaction of the Company that an exemption from such registration is available. 
The Restricted Stock shall be registered in the name of the Grantee and shall be placed in a restricted account in book entry form where such Restricted Stock shall remain until either such Restricted Stock is no longer subject to the Restrictions, or such Restricted Stock is forfeited, as provided hereunder.  The Company may, in its discretion, register the Restricted Stock in certificate form for the number of shares of Restricted Stock specified above.  If the Company registers the Restricted Stock in certificate form, the Company will retain the certificates and each certificate will bear the following legend until the expiration of the period the Restricted Stock is subject to the Restrictions or forfeiture:
“The sale or other transfer of the shares of stock represented by this certificate, whether voluntary, involuntary, or by operation of law, is subject to certain restrictions on transfer set forth in the FirstEnergy Corp. 2015 Incentive Compensation Plan, in the rules and administrative procedures adopted pursuant to such Plan, and in a Restricted Stock Award Agreement dated with the Award Date.  A copy of the Plan, such rules and procedures, and such Restricted Stock Award Agreement may be obtained from the Corporate Secretary of FirstEnergy Corp.”
14.Termination of Agreement.  This Agreement will terminate on the earliest of: (i) the date of the Grantee’s termination of employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries prior to the satisfaction of the Vesting Condition, except if such termination is due to death or Disability or a termination by the Company without Cause, or (ii) the date the Restrictions lapse in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any terms or conditions of this Agreement that the Company determines are reasonably necessary to effectuate its purposes will survive the termination of this Agreement. 
15.Miscellaneous Provisions.
(a)Adjustments.  In the event of a corporate event or transaction described in Section 4.5 of the Plan, the Shares of Restricted Stock shall be adjusted as set forth in Section 4.5 of the Plan. 

3

(b)Successors and Legal Representatives.  This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of the Company and the Grantee, and their respective successors, assigns and legal representatives. 
(c)Integration.  This Agreement, together with the Plan, constitutes the entire agreement between the Grantee and the Company with respect to the subject matter hereof. Any waiver of any term, condition or breach thereof will not be a waiver of any other term or condition or of the same term or condition for the future, or of any subsequent breach.  To the extent a conflict exists between the terms of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern.
(d)Notice.   Any notice relating to this grant must be in writing, which may include an electronic writing. 
(e)No Employment Right Created.   Nothing in this Agreement will be construed to confer upon the Grantee the right to continue in the employment or service of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or to be employed or serve in any particular position therewith, or affect any right which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may have to terminate the Grantee’s employment or service with or without Cause. 
(f)Severability.  In the event of the invalidity of any part or provision of this Agreement, such invalidity will not affect the enforceability of any other part or provision of this Agreement. 
(g)Section Headings.  The section headings of this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and are not intended to define, extend or limit the contents of the sections. 
(h)Amendment.  The terms and conditions of this Agreement may be modified by the Committee:
		
	(i)
	in any case permitted by the terms of the Plan or this Agreement;

		
	(ii)
	with the written consent of the Grantee; or

		
	(iii)
	 without the consent of the Grantee if the amendment is either not materially adverse to the interests of the Grantee or is necessary or appropriate in the view of the Committee to conform with, or to take into account, applicable law, including either exemption from or compliance with any applicable tax law. 

(i)Plan Administration.   The Plan is administered by the Committee, which has full and exclusive discretionary power to interpret, implement, construe and adopt rules, forms and guidelines for administering the Plan and this Agreement. All actions, interpretations and determinations made by the Committee, the Board of Directors, or any of their delegates as to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding on all persons and the Grantee agrees to be bound by such actions, interpretations and determinations.
(j)Governing Law.  Except as may otherwise be provided in the Plan, this Agreement will be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Ohio, without giving effect to its principles of conflict of laws.  By accepting this Award, the Grantee agrees to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of the United States District Court for 

4

the Northern District of Ohio or the Summit County (Ohio) Court of Common Pleas to adjudicate any and all claims brought with respect to this Agreement.
(k)Code Section 409A.  Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Agreement to the contrary, the award of Restricted Stock hereunder is intended to meet any applicable requirements for exclusion from coverage under Code Section 409A and this Agreement shall be construed and administered accordingly.  However, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company makes no representations or warranties as to the tax effects of payments made to the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate) pursuant to this Agreement, and any and all tax consequences incident to such shall solely be the responsibility of the Grantee (or the Grantee’s estate).
(l)Data Privacy.  In order to implement, administer and manage the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, the Company and its affiliates may hold certain personal information about the Grantee, including, but not limited to, the Grantee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company or any affiliate, details of all Awards or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Grantee’s favor, for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Plan (collectively, the “Personal Data”). 
The Grantee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of the Grantee’s Personal Data as described above, as applicable, to the Company and its affiliates for the sole purpose of administering the Plan.  The Grantee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States or the Grantee’s state of residence.

The Grantee authorizes the recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Personal Data, in electronic or other form, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Grantee’s participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Personal Data as may be required to a broker or other third party with whom the Grantee may elect to deposit any Shares received upon vesting of the Restricted Stock. The Grantee understands that Personal Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage the Grantee’s participation in the Plan and to comply with SEC and/or NYSE reporting obligations, any other applicable law or regulation and any applicable document retention policies of the Company. The Grantee understands that he or she may, at any time, view Personal Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Personal Data, require any necessary amendments to Personal Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, without cost, by contacting in writing the Executive Compensation group of Human Resources.

2

 

doubt, the LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the rate as published by ICE, or a comparable or successor quoting service approved by the Administrative Agent from time to time for purposes of providing quotations of interest rates applicable to dollar deposits in the London interbank market, at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, on such day (or the immediately preceding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), as the rate for dollar deposits with a one month maturity.

If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.15(a) hereof, then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of clause (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate Base Rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the above, (x) to the extent that “LIBO Rate” is used in connection with an ABR Borrowing, such rate shall be determined as modified by the definition of Alternate Base Rate, (y) unless otherwise specified in any amendment to this Agreement entered into in accordance with Section 2.15(b), in the event that a Replacement Rate with respect to the LIBO Rate is implemented then all references herein to the LIBO Rate shall be deemed references to such Replacement Rate and (z) if the LIBO Rate or any Replacement Rate shall be less than zero at any time, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

 

Section 1.06          Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

 

Section 2.04          Amendments to Section 2.10 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(a)                                 Section 2.10(c) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read in full as follows:

 

(c)                                  During the Collateral Trigger Period, the Borrowing Base (and, if applicable, the Development Borrowing Base and/or Basin BB Amounts) shall be redetermined semi-annually (a “Semi-Annual Scheduled Redetermination”) or, if the Annual Scheduled Redetermination Conditions have been satisfied and the Borrower so elects as provided herein, annually (an “Annual Scheduled Redetermination”), in each case in accordance with this Section 2.10, and subject to Section 2.10(e), such redetermined Borrowing Base (and, if applicable, Development Borrowing Base and/or Basin BB Amounts) shall become effective and applicable to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders on April 1st and, in the case of a Semi-Annual Scheduled

 

4

 

Redetermination, October 1st of each year (or, in each case, such date promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable), commencing on October 1, 2016. Effective as of the Third Amendment Effective Date, so long as (i) the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 for the Rolling Period ending on June 30th immediately prior to any proposed October 1 Scheduled Redetermination as set forth in the compliance certificate delivered for such period pursuant to Section 5.01(c) and (ii) the Aggregate Elected Commitment Borrowing Base Percentage is greater than or equal to 25% as of the date such Annual Scheduled Redetermination Election Notice is delivered (the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the “Annual Scheduled Redetermination Conditions”), then the Borrower may elect to (but shall not be obligated to) forego the October 1 Scheduled Redetermination in any such year (and to be only subject to an Annual Scheduled Redetermination for such year) by providing an irrevocable written notice thereof (such notice, an “Annual Scheduled Redetermination Election Notice”) to the Administrative Agent (x) no earlier than on the date the financial statements and compliance certificate for the Rolling Period ending June 30th of such year are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(b) and 5.01(c), respectively and (y) no later than September 1st of such year.

For the avoidance of doubt, the initial determination of the Borrowing Base (and, if applicable, the Basin BB Amounts) after a Collateral Trigger Date and/or the initial determination of the Development Borrowing Base after a Collateral Trigger Date shall not constitute an Interim Redetermination, but any request to redetermine the Borrowing Base, the Basin BB Amounts and/or the Development Borrowing Base (except pursuant to Section 2.10(b)(i)) shall constitute an Interim Redetermination.

 

(b)                                 Section 2.10(e)(i) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read in full as follows:

 

(i)                                     in the case of any Scheduled Redetermination, (A) if the Administrative Agent shall have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.01(e)(i) and (f) in a timely and complete manner, then, in the case of an Annual Scheduled Redetermination, on April 1st and, in the case of Semi-Annual Scheduled Redeterminations, April 1st and October 1st, as applicable (or, in each case, such date promptly thereafter as reasonably practicable) following such New Borrowing Base Notice, or (B) if the Administrative Agent shall not have received the Engineering Reports required to be delivered by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.01(e)(i) and (f) in a timely and complete manner, then on the Business Day next succeeding delivery of such New Borrowing Base Notice;

(i)                                     the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBO Rate (including, without limitation, because the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period; or

 

(ii)                                  the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly

reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

 

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing shall be ineffective, and (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Revolving Borrowing; provided  that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then the other Type of Borrowings shall be permitted.

 

(b)               Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.15(a) above, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination (such determination to be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances described in Section 2.15(a)(i) have arisen and that such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (ii) any applicable interest rate specified herein is no longer a widely recognized benchmark rate for newly originated loans in the United States syndicated loan market in the applicable currency or (iii) the applicable supervisor or administrator (if any) of any applicable interest rate specified herein or any Governmental Authority having, or purporting to have, jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which any applicable interest rate specified herein shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans in the United States syndicated loan market in the applicable currency, then the Administrative Agent may, to the extent practicable (in consultation with the Borrower and as determined by the Administrative Agent to be generally in accordance with similar situations in other transactions in which it is serving as administrative agent or otherwise consistent with market practice generally), establish a replacement interest rate (the “Replacement Rate”), in which case, the Replacement Rate shall, subject to the next two sentences, replace such applicable interest rate for all purposes under the Loan Documents unless and until (A) an event described in Section 2.15(a)(i), (a)(ii), (b)(i), (b)(ii) or (b)(iii) occurs with respect to the Replacement Rate or (B) the Administrative Agent (or the Required Lenders through the Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the Replacement Rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Loans bearing interest at the Replacement Rate. In connection with the establishment and application of the Replacement Rate, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended solely with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.15(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, Section 9.03), such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the

 

7

 

delivery of such amendment to the Lenders, written notices from such Lenders that in the aggregate constitute Required Lenders, with each such notice stating that such Lender objects to such amendment (which such notice shall note with specificity the particular provisions of the amendment to which such Lender objects). To the extent the Replacement Rate is approved by the Administrative Agent in connection with this clause (b), the Replacement Rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with market practice.

 

Section 2.06          Amendments to Section 5.01 of the Credit Agreement.

(b)                                 Section 5.01(e) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by (i) deleting the word “and” at the end of clause (ii) therein, (ii) replacing the semi-colon at the end of clause (iii) therein with “, and”, and (iii) adding a new clause (iv) immediately after clause (iii) therein, which new clause (iv) shall read in its entirety as follows:

Such reserve report shall be in the form determined acceptable by the Borrower’s management for its internal use, and shall not be required to qualify as a “Reserve Report” or be prepared in accordance with the procedures used in the preparation of Reserve Reports or otherwise be in form or substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent or any Lender;

 

(c)                                  Section 5.01(g) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read in full as follows:

 

(g)                                  prior to (i) selling, transferring, assigning or otherwise disposing of any Oil and Gas Properties of any Loan Parties (including through a

The Borrower will not merge into or consolidate with any other Person, or permit any other Person to merge into or consolidate with it, or sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (including by way of division) (in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or substantially all of its assets (whether now owned or hereafter acquired), or liquidate or dissolve, except that (x) if at the time thereof and immediately after giving effect thereto no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, any Person may merge into the Borrower in a transaction in which the Borrower is the surviving corporation and (y) the Borrower may sell, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of (including by way of division) (in one transaction or in a series of transactions) all or substantially all of its assets to a Subsidiary or other Person created as a result of a division so long as such Subsidiary or other Person created as a result of a division becomes a Guarantor hereunder or otherwise assumes the obligations of the Borrower.

 

Section 2.08          Amendment to Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement. Section 9.03(b) of the Credit Agreement is hereby amended by replacing the word “None” at the beginning thereof with the phrase “Subject to Section 2.15(b), none”.

ARTICLE IV

Ratification; Representations and Warranties

 

Section 4.01          Ratification and Affirmation. Each Loan Party does hereby adopt, ratify and confirm the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as amended hereby, and its obligations thereunder. Each Loan Party hereby (a) confirms and ratifies all of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is a party, including its guaranty obligations and the Liens granted by it under the Collateral Documents to which it is a party and (b) confirms that all references in such Loan Documents to the “Credit Agreement” (or words of similar import) refer to the Amended Credit Agreement without impairing any such obligations or Liens in any respect.

 

Section 4.02          Representations and Warranties. Each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:

 

(a)                                 As of the date hereof, after giving effect to the terms of this Third Amendment, all of the representations and warranties contained in each Loan Document to which it is a party are true and correct in all material respects (except that any such representations and warranties that are modified by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects), except to the extent any such representations and warranties are expressly limited to an earlier date, in which case, such representations and warranties shall continue to be true and correct in all material respects as of such specified earlier date (except that any such representations and warranties that are modified by materiality shall be true and correct in all respects as of such specified earlier date).

 

(b)                                 As of the date hereof, after giving effect to this Third Amendment, no Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

(c)                                  The execution, delivery and performance by it of this Third Amendment and any other Loan Documents executed in connection herewith are within such Loan Party’s corporate powers and have been duly authorized by all corporate action. This Third Amendment has been duly executed and delivered by the Loan Parties and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each of the Loan Parties, enforceable against the Loan Parties in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

 

10

 

(d)     No material authorization or approval or other action by, and no notice to or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required for the due execution, delivery and performance by any Loan Party of this Third Amendment and any other Loan Document to which it is a party, or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. The execution, delivery and performance by each Loan Party of this Third Amendment and any other Loan Documents to which it is shown as being a party (to the extent not released in accordance with its terms and/or the terms of the Credit Agreement) and the consummation of the transaction contemplated thereby do not contravene (i) such Loan Party’s organizational documents or (ii) any law or any restriction under any material agreement binding on or affecting such Loan Party and will not result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien prohibited by the Amended Credit Agreement.
