W I T N E S S E T H:

 

WHEREAS, on July 20, 2012, the Borrower, certain of the Credit Parties, Agent and certain of the Lenders, entered into that certain Credit Agreement (as amended prior to the date hereof, the “Original Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, the Borrower obtained a senior secured revolving credit facility as therein provided.

 

WHEREAS, on June 26, 2014, the Borrower, certain of the Credit Parties, Agent and certain of the Lenders, entered into that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, Borrower continued the senior secured revolving credit facility set forth in the Original Credit Agreement and increased the amount of such credit facility as therein provided.

 

WHEREAS, concurrently with the effectiveness of this Agreement and pursuant to the terms of the BioRx Acquisition Agreement, the Borrower shall acquire BioRx, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“BioRx”).

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Agent and the Lenders further amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in order to, among other things, provide for a $175,000,000 revolving credit facility, a $120,000,000 term loan and a $25,000,000 delayed draw term loan on the terms and conditions set forth herein and make certain other amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement, and the Agent and Lenders are willing to do so in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents (as defined below).

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has agreed that all of its Obligations under the Loan Documents will continue to be secured by a Lien in favor of Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured Parties, upon substantially all of its existing and after acquired Property.

 

WHEREAS, subject to the terms hereof, each other Credit Party that is party to the Existing Credit Agreement has agreed that it will continue to guaranty all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents and that all of such Obligations will continue to be secured by a Lien in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured Parties, upon substantially all of its Property; and

 

 

WHEREAS, subject to the terms hereof, upon effectiveness of this Agreement, each of BioRx and BioRx Blocker Corp. is willing to guaranty all of the Obligations under the Loan Documents and to grant a Lien in favor of the Agent, for the benefit of Agent and the other Secured Parties, upon substantially all of its Property.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements, provisions and covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree, and the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, as follows:

 

ARTICLE I.
 THE CREDITS

 

1.1                               Amounts and Terms of Commitments.

 

(a)                                 The Term Loans.

 

(i)                                     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Lender with a Term Loan A Commitment severally and not jointly agrees to lend, to the Borrower on the Closing Date, the amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “Term Loan A Commitments” (such amount being referred to herein as such Lender’s “Term Loan A Commitment”).  Amounts borrowed under this Section 1.1(a)(i) are referred to as the “Term Loan A.”

 

(ii)                                  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each DDTL Lender  severally and not jointly agrees to lend to the Borrower from time to time after the Closing Date until the DDTL Commitment Expiration Date on not more than two (2) occasions, the aggregate amount set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(a) under the heading “DDTL Commitment” (such amount being referred to herein as such Lender’s “DDTL Commitment”).  Amounts borrowed under this subsection 1.1(a)(ii) are referred to as a “DDTL.”  The DDTL Commitment of each DDTL Lender shall be reduced by the aggregate amount of DDTLs funded by such DDTL Lender.

 

Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all DDTLs, when originally made or thereafter, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loan A on a pro rata basis.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, this may be accomplished by requiring each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loan A that is a LIBOR Rate Loan to be converted into a Borrowing of Term Loan A that is a Base Rate Loan on the date of each such DDTL, or by allocating a portion of each such DDTL to each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loan A that is a LIBOR Rate Loan on a pro rata basis.  Any conversion of LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 10.4.  In addition, each scheduled amortization payment under Section 1.8(a) required to be made after the making of any DDTL which (as of the date of such scheduled amortization payment) is of the same Class as Term Loan A shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such DDTL for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, including, to avoid any

 

2

 

reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term Loan Lenders are entitled in respect of such DDTL.  To the extent any installment under Section 1.8(a) that is scheduled to be made in respect of Term Loan A on any day shall have been reduced or eliminated due to the application thereto of a prepayment prior to the date on which a DDTL is funded and as of which day is of the same Class as Term Loan A, then notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.11 hereof to the contrary, Lenders who hold such funded DDTLs on such day shall be entitled to receive the entire  portion of each payment of, or application to, the installment with respect to such funded DDTL scheduled to be made on such day.  For the avoidance of doubt, until such time as Agent exercises such option to treat DDTLs as being of the same Class as Term Loan A, DDTLs shall be deemed to be part of a Class separate from Term Loan A.

 

(iii)                               Amounts borrowed as a Term Loan which are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

 

(b)                                 The Revolving Credit.

 

(i)                                     Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, each Revolving Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make in U.S. dollars Loans to the Borrower (each such Loan and each Incremental Revolving Loan (if any), a “Revolving Loan”) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the Final Availability Date, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitments, which Revolving Loan Commitments, as of the Closing Date, are set forth opposite such Lender’s name in Schedule 1.1(b) under the heading “Revolving Loan Commitments”; provided, however, that, after giving effect to any Borrowing of Revolving Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans shall not exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance.  Subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, amounts borrowed under this Section 1.1(b) may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time.  The “Maximum Revolving Loan Balance” from time to time will be the lesser of:

 

(x)                                 the Borrowing Base (as calculated pursuant to the Borrowing Base Certificate and including applicable Reserves imposed by Agent in its Permitted Discretion) in effect from time to time, or

 

(y)                                 the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect;

 

less, in either case, the sum of (x) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations plus (y) outstanding Swing Loans.

 

(ii)                                  If at any time the then outstanding principal balance of Revolving Loans exceeds the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance, then the Borrower shall immediately prepay outstanding Revolving Loans and then cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess in accordance herewith and in a manner satisfactory to the L/C Issuers (other than any excess consisting solely of an Overadvance permitted at such time under Section 1.1(b)(iii)).

 

(iii)                               If the Borrower requests that Revolving Lenders make, or permit to remain outstanding Revolving Loans in excess of the Borrowing Base (any such excess

 

3

 

Revolving Loan is herein referred to as an “Overadvance”), Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to make, or permit to remain outstanding such Overadvance; provided, however, that Agent may not cause Revolving Lenders to make, or permit to remain outstanding, (A) aggregate Revolving Loans in excess of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment less the sum of (x) outstanding Swing Loans plus (y) the aggregate amount of Letter of Credit Obligations or (B) an Overadvance in an aggregate amount in excess of 10% of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.  If an Overadvance is made, or permitted to remain outstanding, pursuant to the preceding sentence, then all Revolving Lenders shall be bound to make, or permit to remain outstanding, such Overadvance based upon their Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment in accordance with the terms of this Agreement regardless of whether the conditions to lending set forth in Section 2.2 have been met.  Furthermore, Required Revolving Lenders may prospectively revoke Agent’s ability to make or permit Overadvances by written notice to Agent, and no Overadvances shall remain outstanding for more than 30 days without the written consent of Required Revolving Lenders.  All Overadvances shall constitute Base Rate Loans and shall bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans and at the default rate under Section 1.3(c).

 

(c)                                  Letters of Credit.

 

(i)                                     Conditions.  On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, any Credit Party may request that one or more L/C Issuers Issue, in accordance with such L/C Issuers’ usual and customary business practices and for the account of any Credit Party, Letters of Credit (denominated in Dollars) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the earlier of (x) the Final Availability Date and (y) seven (7) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that no L/C Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following or, if after giving effect to such Issuance:

 

(A)                               (i) Availability would be less than zero or (ii) the Letter of Credit Obligations for all Letters of Credit would exceed $10,000,000 (the “L/C Sublimit”);

 

(B)                               the expiration date of such Letter of Credit (i) is not a Business Day, (ii) is more than one year after the date of Issuance thereof or (iii) is later than seven (7) days prior to the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of Revolving Termination Date; provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding one year may provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding one year as long as (x) each of the Borrower and such L/C Issuer have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such L/C Issuer nor the Borrower shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in clause (iii) above; or

 

(C)                               (i) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior to, such Issuance has not been paid, (ii) such Letter of Credit is requested to be Issued in a form that is not acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (iii) such L/C

 

4

 

Issuer shall not have received, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to it and duly executed by the Borrower on behalf of the Credit Parties, the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses in the Ordinary Course of Business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the type of such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement Agreement”).

 

Furthermore, GE Capital as an L/C Issuer may elect only to Issue Letters of Credit in its own name and an L/C Issuer may only Issue Letters of Credit to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, and such Letters of Credit may not be accepted by certain beneficiaries such as insurance companies.  For each Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required to, determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that no Letter of Credit shall be Issued during the period starting on the first Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders that any condition precedent contained in Section 2.2 is not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly waived.

 

Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, if any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender, no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to Issue any Letter of Credit unless (w) the Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender has been replaced in accordance with Section 9.9 or Section 9.22, (x) the Letter of Credit Obligations of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender have been cash collateralized, (y) the Revolving Loan Commitments of the other Lenders have been increased in accordance with Section 9.1(a)(i) by an amount sufficient to satisfy Agent that all future Letter of Credit Obligations will be covered by all Revolving Lenders that are not Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders, or (z) the Letter of Credit Obligations of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender have been reallocated to other Revolving Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 1.11(e)(ii).

 

(ii)                                  Notice of Issuance.  The Borrower shall give the relevant L/C Issuer and Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of Credit, which shall be effective only if received by such L/C Issuer and Agent not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of such requested Issuance.  Such notice shall be made in a writing or Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(c) duly completed or in a writing in any other form acceptable to such L/C Issuer (an “L/C Request”).

 

(iii)                               Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers.  Each L/C Issuer agrees to provide Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent, each of the following on the following dates:  (A) (i) on or prior to any Issuance of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (ii) immediately after any drawing under any such Letter of Credit or (iii) immediately after any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the Borrower of any related L/C Reimbursement Obligation, notice thereof, which shall contain a detailed description of such Issuance, drawing or payment, and Agent shall provide copies of such notices to each Revolving Lender reasonably promptly after receipt thereof; (B) upon the request of Agent (or any Revolving Lender through Agent), copies of any Letter of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C Reimbursement Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be requested by Agent; and (C) on the first Business Day of each calendar week, a schedule of the Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to

 

5

 

Agent, setting forth the Letter of Credit Obligations for such Letters of Credit outstanding on the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

 

(iv)                              Acquisition of Participations.  Upon any Issuance of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the Letter of Credit Obligations, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit and the related Letter of Credit Obligations in an amount equal to its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations.

 

(v)                                 Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower.  The Borrower agrees to pay to the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit, or to Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer, each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such Letter of Credit no later than the first Business Day after the Borrower receives notice from such L/C Issuer or from Agent that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement Obligation is otherwise due (the “L/C Reimbursement Date”) with interest thereon computed as set forth in clause (A) below.  In the event that any L/C Reimbursement Obligation is not repaid by the Borrower as provided in this Section 1.1(c)(v) (or any such payment by the Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall promptly notify Agent of such failure (and, upon receipt of such notice, Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender) and, irrespective of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be payable on demand by the Borrower with interest thereon computed (A) from the date on which such L/C Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date, at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and (B) thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such period to past due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.

 

(vi)                              Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders.

 

(1)                                 Upon receipt of the notice described in Section 1.1(c)(v) above from Agent, each Revolving Lender shall pay to Agent for the account of such L/C Issuer its Commitment Percentage of such Letter of Credit Obligations (as such amount may be increased pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(ii)).

 

(2)                                 By making any payments described in Section 1.1(c)(vi)(1) above (other than during the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt thereof by Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation.  Any such payment that is not deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its participation in the applicable Letter of Credit and the Letter of Credit Obligation in respect of the related L/C Reimbursement Obligations.  Such participation shall not otherwise be required to be funded.  Following receipt by any L/C Issuer of any payment from any Lender pursuant to this Section 1.1(c)(vi) with respect to any portion of any L/C Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay to Agent, for the benefit of such Lender, all amounts received by such L/C Issuer (or to the extent such amounts shall have been received by Agent for the benefit of such

 

6

 

L/C Issuer, Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender all amounts received by Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer) with respect to such portion.

 

(vii)                           Obligations Absolute.  The obligations of the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders pursuant to Sections 1.1(c)(iv), (c)(v) and (c)(vi) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement irrespective of (A) (i) the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to transfer a Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such instrument), or any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (ii) any document presented under a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or inaccurate in any respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or (iii) any loss or delay, including in the transmission of any document, (B) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including any Credit Party) may have against the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other Person, whether in connection with any Loan Document or any other Contractual Obligation or transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction, (C) in the case of the obligations of any Revolving Lender, (i) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied (each of which conditions precedent the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or (ii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party and (D) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of Agent, any Lender or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 1.1(c)(vii), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or any Revolving Lender hereunder.  No provision hereof shall be deemed to waive or limit the Borrower’s right to seek repayment of any payment of any L/C Reimbursement Obligations from the L/C Issuer under the terms of the applicable L/C Reimbursement Agreement or applicable law.  Nothing herein shall excuse L/C Issuer for liability to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of L/C Issuer under the terms of the applicable L/C Reimbursement Agreement as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.

 

(d)                                 Swing Loans.

 

(i)                                     Availability.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of the Credit Parties contained herein, the Swingline Lender shall make Loans (each a “Swing Loan”) available to the Borrower under the Revolving Loan Commitments from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date through the Final Availability Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed its Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that the Swingline Lender may not make any Swing Loan (x) to the extent that after giving effect to such Swing Loan, the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans would exceed the Maximum Revolving Loan Balance and (y) during the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives notice from Agent or the Required Revolving Lenders that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 2.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly waived.  In connection with the making of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender may but shall not be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 2.2 have been satisfied or waived.  Each

 

7

 

Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and must be repaid as provided herein, but in any event must be repaid in full on the Revolving Termination Date.  Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this Section 1.1(d)(i), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 1.1(d)(i).

 

(ii)                                  Borrowing Procedures.  In order to request a Swing Loan, the Borrower shall give to Agent a notice to be received not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the day of the proposed Borrowing, which shall be made in a writing or in an Electronic Transmission substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.1(d) or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Agent duly completed (a “Swingline Request”).  In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing of Revolving Loans requests a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, the Swingline Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, make a Swing Loan to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not to exceed such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed Borrowing shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan.  Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the details of the requested Swing Loan.  Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Swingline Lender may make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower by making the proceeds thereof available to Agent and, in turn, Agent shall make such proceeds available to the Borrower on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline Request or Notice of Borrowing.

 

(iii)                               Refinancing Swing Loans.

 

(1)                                 The Swingline Lender may at any time (and shall, no less frequently than once each week) forward a demand to Agent (which Agent shall, upon receipt, forward to each Revolving Lender) that each Revolving Lender pay to Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the outstanding Swing Loans (as such amount may be increased pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(ii)).

 

(2)                                 Each Revolving Lender shall pay the amount owing by it to Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender on the Business Day following receipt of the notice or demand therefor.  Payments received by Agent after 1:00 p.m. (New York time) may, in Agent’s discretion be deemed received on the next Business Day.  Upon receipt by Agent of such payment (other than during the continuation of any Event of Default under Section 7.1(f) or 7.1(g)), such Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt of such payment by the Swingline Lender from Agent, the Borrower shall be deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swing Loan.  In addition, regardless of whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default under Section 7.1(f) or 7.1(g), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to have acquired, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each Swing Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Swing Loan.  If any payment made by any Revolving Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a Revolving Loan, such payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation.  Such participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded.  Upon receipt by the Swingline Lender of any payment from any Revolving Lender pursuant to this clause (iii) with respect to any portion of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender shall promptly pay over to such Revolving Lender all payments of principal (to the extent received after such payment by such Lender) and interest (to

 

8

 

the extent accrued with respect to periods after such payment) on account of such Swing Loan received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion.

 

(iv)                              Obligation to Fund Absolute.  Each Revolving Lender’s obligations pursuant to Section 1.1(d)(iii) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff, claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person may have against the Swingline Lender, Agent, any other Lender or L/C Issuer or any other Person, (B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in Section 2.2 to be satisfied or the failure of the Borrower to deliver a Notice of Borrowing (each of which requirements the Revolving Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) and (C) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Credit Party.

 

(e)                                  Incremental Facilities.

 

(i)                                     Requests.  The Borrower may, by written notice to Agent (each, an “Incremental Facility Request”), request increases in the Term Loans or additional term loan facilities (each, an “Incremental Term Loan Commitment” and the term loans thereunder, an “Incremental Term Loan”) and/or increases in the Revolving Loan Commitments (each, an “Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment” and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans”; each Incremental Term Loan Commitment and each Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment are each sometimes referred to herein individually as an “Incremental Facility” and collectively as the “Incremental Facilities”) in Dollars in an aggregate amount not to exceed $40,000,000 for all such Incremental Facilities; provided that the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Revolving Loan Commitments shall not exceed $25,000,000, provided, further, that no commitment of any Lender shall be increased without the consent of such Lender.  Such notice shall set forth (A) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment being requested, (B) the date (an “Incremental Effective Date”) on which such Incremental Facility is requested to become effective (which, unless otherwise agreed by Agent, shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice), and (C) if an Incremental Term Loan Commitment, whether the related Incremental Term Loan is to be a LIBOR Rate Loan or a Base Rate Loan (and, if a LIBOR Rate Loan, the Interest Period therefor).

 

(ii)                                  Conditions.  No Incremental Facility shall become effective under this Section 1.1(e) unless, after giving effect to such Incremental Facility, the Loans to be made thereunder (and assuming, in the case of an Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment, that the entire amount of such Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment is funded), and the application of the proceeds therefrom:

 

(A)                               no Default or Event of Default shall exist at the time of funding; provided, solely with respect to an Incremental Term Loan the proceeds of which are intended to and shall be used to finance substantially contemporaneously a Permitted Acquisition, the Persons providing such Incremental Term Loan may agree to a “Funds Certain Provision” that does not impose as a condition to funding thereof that no

 

9

 

Default or Event of Default exists at the time the Permitted Acquisition is consummated (other than an Event of Default under Section 7.1(a) hereof), in which event the condition shall be that no Default or Event of Default shall exist on the date on which the definitive acquisition agreement with respect to such Permitted Acquisition is executed and delivered by the parties thereto;

 

(B)                               as of the last day of the most recent month for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 4.1, in the case of an Incremental Term Loan or if any Term Loan is otherwise outstanding at the time of funding the Leverage Ratio recomputed on a pro forma basis shall not exceed the maximum Leverage Ratio permitted under Section 6.1 at such time;

 

(C)                               (i) for the most recent trailing three fiscal month period for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 4.1, average daily Availability was not less than $20,000,000 and (ii) immediately prior to such funding, Availability is not less than $20,000,000;

 

(D)                               proceeds of such Incremental Term Loan shall be used solely to finance or refinance the purchase price of, and to pay fees, costs and expenses in connection with, a Permitted Acquisition consummated substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof or within 30 days prior to the date of incurrence or for other Investments permitted hereunder; and

 

(E)                                Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying as to the foregoing.

 

(iii)                               Terms.

 

(A)                               The final maturity date of any Incremental Term Loan that is a separate Class shall be no earlier than the maturity date of the initial Term Loans and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such Incremental Term Loan shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the initial Term Loans.

 

(B)                               If the initial all-in yield (including interest rate margins, any interest rate floors, original issue discount and upfront fees (based on the lesser of a four-year average life to maturity or the remaining life to maturity), but excluding reasonable and customary arrangement, structuring and underwriting fees with respect to such Incremental Term Loan that are not shared with all lenders of such Incremental Term Loan) applicable to any Incremental Term Loan exceeds by more than 0.50% per annum the corresponding all-in yield (determined on the same basis) applicable to the Revolving Loans, the then outstanding initial Term

 

10

 

Loans, the DDTLs or any outstanding prior Incremental Term Loan or Extended Term Loans (each, an “Existing Facility” and the amount of such excess above 0.50% being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin with respect to each Existing Facility, as the case may be, shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of such Incremental Term Loan (it being agreed that to the extent the all-in-yield with respect to such Incremental Term Loan is greater than the all-in-yield of an Existing Facility solely as a result of a higher LIBOR floor, then the increased interest rate applicable to an Existing Facility shall be effected solely by increasing the LIBOR floor applicable thereto).

 

(C)                               Except with respect to amortization, pricing and final maturity as set forth in this clause (iii), any Incremental Term Loan shall be on terms consistent with the initial Term Loans.

 

(D)                               Any Incremental Revolving Loans shall be on the same terms (as amended from time to time) (including all-in pricing and maturity date) as, and pursuant to documentation applicable to, the initial Revolving Loans.

 

(iv)                              Required Amendments.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence of such Incremental Facility and the Loans evidenced thereby, and any joinder agreement or amendment may without the consent of the other Lenders effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 1.1(e).  For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 1.1(e) shall supersede any provisions in Section 9.1.  From and after each Incremental Effective Date, the Loans and Commitments established pursuant to this Section 1.1(e) shall constitute Loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the guarantees and security interests created by the applicable Collateral Documents.  The Credit Parties shall take any actions reasonably required by Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the applicable Collateral Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of any such new Loans and Commitments, including compliance with Section 4.13(d).  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans which are not separate Classes, when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis. This may be accomplished by requiring each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans to be converted into a Borrowing of Term Loans that are Base Rate Loans on the date of each such Incremental Term Loan, or by allocating a portion of each such Incremental Term Loan to each outstanding Borrowing of Term Loans that are LIBOR Rate Loans on a pro rata basis.  Any conversion of LIBOR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to Section 10.4.  If any Incremental Term Loan is to be allocated to an existing Interest Period for a Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans, then the

 

11

 

interest rate thereon for such Interest Period shall be as set forth in the applicable Incremental Term Loan joinder agreement or amendment. In addition, the scheduled amortization payments under Section 1.8(a) required to be made after the making of any Incremental Term Loans which are not separate Classes shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term Loan Lenders were entitled before such recalculation.  Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment, (i) Revolving Loans made under such Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis and (ii) the Lender providing each Incremental Revolving Loan Commitment shares ratably in the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations.

 

1.2                               Evidence of Loans; Notes.

 

(a)                                 The Term Loan A made by each Lender with a Term Loan A Commitment is evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Term Note A payable to such Lender in an amount equal to the unpaid balance of the Term Loan A held by such Lender.

 

(b)                                 The Revolving Loans made by each Revolving Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Revolving Note payable to such Lender in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment.

 

(c)                                  Swing Loans made by the Swingline Lender shall be evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a Swingline Note in an amount equal to the Swingline Commitment.

 

(d)                                 DDTLs made by each DDTL Lender are evidenced by this Agreement and, if requested by such Lender, a DDTL Note payable to such Lender in an amount equal to the sum of, without duplication, the DDTL Commitment of, plus the unpaid balance of the DDTL held by, such Lender.

 

1.3                               Interest.

 

(a)                                 Subject to Sections 1.3(c) and 1.3(d), each Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the date when made, and all interest which is not paid when due shall bear interest, at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR or the Base Rate, as the case may be, plus the Applicable Margin; provided Swing Loans may not be LIBOR Rate Loans.  Each determination of an interest rate by Agent shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.  All computations of fees and interest  (other than interest accruing on Base Rate Loans) payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed. All computations of interest accruing on Base Rate Loans payable under this Agreement shall be made on the basis of a 365-day year (366 days in the case of a leap year) and actual days elapsed.  Interest and fees shall

 

12

 

accrue during each period during which interest or such fees are computed from the first day thereof to the last day thereof.

 

(b)                                 Interest on each Loan shall be paid in arrears on each Interest Payment Date.  Interest shall also be paid on the date of any payment or prepayment of Term Loans in full and Revolving Loans on the Revolving Termination Date.

 

(c)                                  At the election of Agent or the Required Lenders while any Event of Default exists (or automatically while any Event of Default under Section 7.1(a), 7.1(f) or 7.1(g) exists), the Borrower shall pay interest (after as well as before entry of judgment thereon to the extent permitted by law) on the Loans and past due interest thereon, if any, from and after the date of occurrence of such Event of Default, at a rate per annum which is determined by adding two percent (2.0%) per annum to the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Loans (plus the LIBOR or Base Rate, as the case may be).  All such interest shall be payable in cash on demand of Agent or the Required Lenders.

 

(d)                                 Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that payments of interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed hereunder, to the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such payment by the respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to such Lender limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for, charged or received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender interest at the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful Rate”); provided, however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder is less than the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder at the Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have been received had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this paragraph) the interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

 

(e)                                  All interest payable pursuant to this Section 1.3 shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.10(a).

 

1.4                               Loan Accounts; Register.

 

(a)                                 Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, shall record on its books and records the amount of each Loan made, the interest rate applicable, all payments of principal and interest thereon and the principal balance thereof from time to time outstanding.  Agent shall deliver to the Borrower on a monthly basis a loan statement setting forth such record for the immediately preceding calendar month.  Such record shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive evidence of the amount of the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon.  Any failure to so record or any error in doing so, or any failure to deliver such loan statement shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder (and under any Note) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or provide the basis for any claim against Agent.

 

13

 

(b)                                 Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions described in this Section 1.4(b), shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.2 (or at such other address as Agent may notify the Borrower) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to receive payment hereunder) of Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer in the Term Loans, Revolving Loans, Swing Loans, L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and Letter of Credit Obligations, each of their obligations under this Agreement to participate in each Loan, Letter of Credit, Letter of Credit Obligations, and L/C Reimbursement Obligations, and any assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in the Register in accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names and addresses of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and each change thereto pursuant to Sections 9.9 and 9.22), (2) the Commitments of each Lender, (3) the amount of each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A) above, and for LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (4) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or paid, (5) the amount of the L/C Reimbursement Obligations due and payable or paid in respect of Letters of Credit and (6) any other payment received by Agent from the Borrower and its application to the Obligations.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Notes evidencing such Loans and, in the case of Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans) and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations are registered obligations, the right, title and interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their assignees in and to such Loans or L/C Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective until recorded therein.  This Section 1.4 and Section 9.9 shall be construed so that the Loans and L/C Reimbursement Obligations are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code.

 

(d)                                 The Credit Parties, Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.  Information contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any L/C Issuer shall be available for access by the Borrower, Agent, such Lender or such L/C Issuer during normal business hours and from time to time upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice.  No Lender or L/C Issuer shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any information in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C Issuer unless otherwise agreed by Agent.

 

1.5                               Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing and DDTL Borrowing.

 

(a)                                 Each Borrowing of a Revolving Loan or DDTL shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable (subject to Section 10.5) written notice delivered to Agent substantially in the form of a Notice of Borrowing or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Agent, which notice must be received by Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time) (i) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing date in the case of each LIBOR Rate Loan and DDTL Borrowing, (ii) on the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing date of each Base Rate Loan in excess of $50,000,000, and (iii) on

 

14

 

the date which is one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing date of each Base Rate Loan equal to or less than $50,000,000.  Such Notice of Borrowing shall specify:

 

(i)                                     the amount of the Borrowing (which, if a Revolving Loan shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $100,000, and if a DDTL, shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000, or if less, the remaining Aggregate DDTL Commitments);

 

(ii)                                  the requested Borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day;

 

(iii)                               whether the Borrowing is to be comprised of (x) Revolving Loans or DDTLs and (y) LIBOR Rate Loans or Base Rate Loans; and

 

(iv)                              if the Borrowing is to be LIBOR Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable to such Loans.

 

(b)                                 Upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Lender and DDTL Lender, as applicable, of such Notice of Borrowing and of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing.

 

(c)                                  Unless Agent is otherwise directed in writing by the Borrower, the proceeds of each requested Borrowing after the Closing Date will be made available to the Borrower by Agent by wire transfer of such amount to the Borrower pursuant to the wire transfer instructions specified on the signature page hereto.

 

1.6                               Conversion and Continuation Elections.

 

(a)                                 The Borrower shall have the option to (i) request that any Revolving Loan be made as a LIBOR Rate Loan, (ii) convert at any time all or any part of outstanding Loans or DDTL (other than Swing Loans) from Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Rate Loans, (iii) convert any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan, subject to Section 10.4 if such conversion is made prior to the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (iv) continue all or any portion of any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period.  Any Loan or group of Loans having the same proposed Interest Period to be made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Rate Loan must be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000.  Any such election must be made by Borrower by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to (1) the date of any proposed Loan which is to bear interest at LIBOR, (2) the end of each Interest Period with respect to any LIBOR Rate Loans to be continued as such, or (3) the date on which the Borrower wishes to convert any Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Rate Loan for an Interest Period designated by Borrower in such election.  If no election is received with respect to a LIBOR Rate Loan by 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the third Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period with respect thereto, that LIBOR Rate Loan shall be converted to a Base Rate Loan at the end of its Interest Period.  The Borrower must make such election by notice to Agent in writing, including by Electronic Transmission.  In the case of any conversion or continuation, such election must be made pursuant to a written notice (a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”) substantially in the form of Exhibit 1.6 or in a writing in any other form acceptable to Agent.  No Loan shall be made, converted into or continued as a LIBOR Rate Loan, if the conditions to Loans and Letters of Credit in Section 2.2 are not met at the time of such proposed conversion or continuation and Agent or Required

 

15

 

Lenders have determined not to make or continue any Loan as a LIBOR Rate Loan as a result thereof.

 

(b)                                 Upon receipt of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof.  In addition, Agent will, with reasonable promptness, notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of LIBOR; provided that any failure to do so shall not relieve the Borrower of any liability hereunder or provide the basis for any claim against Agent.  All conversions and continuations shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans held by each Lender with respect to which the notice was given.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, after giving effect to any Borrowing, or to any continuation or conversion of any Loans, there shall not be more than seven (7) different Interest Periods in effect; provided that after the establishment of any new Class of Loans pursuant to an Extension, such number of Interest Periods shall increase by two (2) Interest Periods for each such new Class of Loans so established.

 

1.7                               Optional Prepayments; Termination of Revolving Loan Commitment.

 

(a)                                 Optional Prepayments Generally.  The Borrower may, at any time upon at least two (2) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Agent) prior written notice by the Borrower to Agent, prepay the Loans in whole or in part in an amount greater than or equal to $100,000 (other than Revolving Loans and Swing Loans for which prior written notice is not required and for which no minimum shall apply), in each instance, without penalty or premium except as provided in Section 10.4.  Optional partial prepayments of Revolving Loans shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.10(a) (without a corresponding reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment). Optional partial prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied pro rata among each Class of Term Loans based upon the respective outstanding principal balances thereof and, within each Class of Term Loans, in accordance with Section 1.10(a) and then shall, subject to Section 1.10(a), be applied to scheduled installments thereof, if any, as specified by the Borrower in such notice of prepayment; provided that the same order of application shall apply to each Class of Term Loan and, in the absence of such direction, in the manner set forth in Section 1.8(g).

 

(b)                                 (i)  Termination of Revolving Loan Commitments.  The Borrower may at any time on at least 10 days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Agent) prior written notice to Agent terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in full (but not in part), and the Borrower shall repay to the Lenders in full the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans outstanding on such date, together with any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4.

 

(ii)  Termination of DDTL Commitments.  The Borrower may at any time upon at least ten (10) days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to Agent) prior written notice to Agent permanently terminate the Aggregate DDTL Commitment in full (but not in part).

 

16

 

(c)                                  Notices.  Notice of prepayment or commitment termination pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall not thereafter be revocable by the Borrower (unless such notice expressly conditions such prepayment upon consummation of a transaction which is contemplated to result in prepayment of the Loans, in which event such notice may be revocable or conditioned upon such consummation) and Agent will promptly notify each Lender thereof and of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment or reduction.  The payment amount specified in a notice of prepayment shall be due and payable on the date specified therein.  Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.7, the Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4.

 

1.8                               Mandatory Prepayments of Loans and Revolving Loan Repayment.

 

(a)                                 Scheduled Term Loan Payments.  (i) The principal amount of the Term Loans (other than the DDTLs) shall be paid in installments on the dates and in the respective amounts shown below in accordance with Section 1.10(a):

(b)                                 Revolving Loan.  The Borrower shall repay to the Lenders in full on the date specified in clause (a) of the definition of “Revolving Termination Date” the aggregate principal amount of the Revolving Loans and Swing Loans outstanding on the Revolving Termination Date.

 

(c)                                  Asset Dispositions; Events of Loss.  If a Credit Party or any Subsidiary of a Credit Party shall at any time or from time to time:

 

(i)                                     make or agree to make a Disposition; or

 

(ii)                                  suffer an Event of Loss;

 

and the aggregate amount of the Net Proceeds received by the Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries in connection with such Disposition or Event of Loss and all other Dispositions and Events of Loss occurring during the Fiscal Year exceeds $1,500,000, then (A) the Borrower shall promptly notify Agent of such proposed Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by a Credit Party and/or such Subsidiary in respect

 

18

 

thereof) and (B) promptly upon receipt by a Credit Party and/or such Subsidiary of the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, such excess Net Proceeds to Agent for distribution to the Lenders as a prepayment of the Loans, which prepayment shall be applied in accordance with Section 1.8(g) hereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing and provided no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such prepayment shall not be required to the extent a Credit Party or such Subsidiary reinvests the Net Proceeds of such Disposition or Event of Loss in productive assets (other than Inventory) of a kind then used or usable in the business of the Borrower or such Subsidiary, within one hundred eighty (180) days after the date of such Disposition or Event of Loss, or enters into a binding commitment thereof within said one hundred eighty (180) day period and subsequently makes such reinvestment; provided that the Borrower notifies Agent of the Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s intent to reinvest and of the completion of such reinvestment at the time such proceeds are received and when such reinvestment occurs, respectively.  Pending such reinvestment, the Net Proceeds shall be delivered to Agent, for distribution first, to the Swingline Lender as a prepayment of Swing Loans (to the extent of Swing Loans outstanding), but not as a permanent reduction of the Swingline Commitment) and thereafter to the Revolving Lenders, as a prepayment of the Revolving Loans (to the extent of Revolving Loans then outstanding), but not as a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.

 

(d)                                 Incurrence of Debt; Issuance of Equity Securities.

 

(i)                                     Incurrence of Debt.  Immediately upon the receipt by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party of the Net Issuance Proceeds of the incurrence of Indebtedness (other than Net Issuance Proceeds from the issuance of Indebtedness permitted hereunder), the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent an amount equal to such Net Issuance Proceeds, for application to the Loans in accordance with Section 1.8(g).

 

(ii)                                  Issuance of Equity Securities. At any time that a Term Loan (including any Incremental Term Loan) is outstanding, immediately upon the receipt by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party of the Net Issuance Proceeds of a public offering of Stock or Stock Equivalents pursuant to a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor or similar Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent an amount equal to 50% of such Net Issuance Proceeds, for application to the Loans in accordance with Section 1.8(g).

 

(e)                                  Excess Cash Flow.  At any time that a Term Loan (including any Incremental Term Loan) is outstanding, within ten (10) days after the annual financial statements and corresponding Compliance Certificate are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 4.1(a) and Section 4.2(b) hereof, commencing with such annual financial statements for the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2015, the Borrower shall deliver to Agent, for distribution to the Lenders, an amount equal to (i) (x) 50% of such Excess Cash Flow if the Leverage Ratio (as calculated in the manner set forth on Exhibit 4.2(b)) as of the last day of such Fiscal Year is 2.75:1.0 or greater, (y) 25% of such Excess Cash Flow if the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such Fiscal Year is less than 2.75:1.0 but greater than or equal to 2.00:1.0 or (z) 0% of such Excess Cash Flow if the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of such Fiscal Year is less than 2.0:1.0, less (ii) the aggregate amount of voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans that are applied in the manner set forth in Section 1.8(g) during such Fiscal Year, for application to the

 

19

 

Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 1.8(g) hereof.  Excess Cash Flow shall be calculated in the manner set forth in the Compliance Certificate.

 

(f)                                   Proceeds Under BioRx Acquisition Agreement.  Promptly upon receipt of (i) any payment in respect of any purchase price adjustment in favor of any Credit Party pursuant to the BioRx Acquisition Agreement (including, without limitation, a payment made to a Credit Party pursuant to Section 12.02 or 12.13 of the BioRx Acquisition Agreement) or (ii) any indemnification payment by the sellers pursuant to the BioRx Acquisition Agreement after the Closing Date (other than amounts paid as a result of a claim by a Credit Party for indemnification under the BioRx Acquisition Agreement to the extent that the amounts so received are applied by such Credit Party for the purpose of (A) replacing, repairing or restoring any Properties of such Credit Party or satisfying the condition giving rise to the claim for indemnification, (B) payment of (or reimbursement of payments made for) claims and settlements to third Persons not an Affiliate of or a Credit Party, or (C) otherwise covering any out-of-pocket expenses incurred by a Credit Party in obtaining such indemnification), the Borrower shall deliver to Agent an amount equal to such payment for application to the Loans in accordance with Section 1.8(g).

 

(g)                                  Application of Prepayments.  Subject to Section 1.10 and except as may otherwise be set forth in any Extension Offer with respect to any Extended Term Loan, any prepayments pursuant to Section 1.8(c) (other than prepayments of Swing Loans and Revolving Loans as set forth therein), 1.8(d), 1.8(e) or 1.8(f) shall be applied first pro rata to each Class of Term Loan based upon the respective outstanding principal balances thereof and shall be applied to prepay all remaining installments of the Term Loan pro rata against all such scheduled installments based upon the respective amounts thereof, second to prepay outstanding Swing Loans, third to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, and fourth to cash collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount determined in accordance with Section 7.4.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 1.10(c), any prepayments pursuant to Section 1.8(d)(ii) within 90 days of the Closing Date may, at the written election of Borrower made to Agent at least two Business Days prior to prepayment (or such shorter time as Agent may elect in its sole discretion), be applied first to prepay outstanding Swing Loans, second to prepay outstanding Revolving Loans without a permanent reduction of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment, third to prepay all remaining installments of the Term Loan pro rata against all such scheduled installments based upon the respective amounts thereof and fourth to cash collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount determined in accordance with Section 7.4.  To the extent permitted by the foregoing sentences, amounts prepaid shall be applied first to any Base Rate Loans then outstanding and then to outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans with the shortest Interest Periods remaining.  Together with each prepayment under this Section 1.8, the Borrower shall pay any amounts required pursuant to Section 10.4 hereof.

 

(h)                                 No Implied Consent.  Provisions contained in this Section 1.8 for the application of proceeds of certain transactions shall not be deemed to constitute consent of the Lenders to transactions that are not otherwise permitted by the terms hereof or the other Loan Documents.

(a)                                 Fees.  The Borrower shall pay to Agent, for Agent’s own account, fees in the amounts and at the times set forth in a letter agreement between the Borrower and Agent dated of even date herewith (as amended, modified and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Fee Letter”).

 

(b)                                 (i) Unused Commitment Fee.  The Borrower shall pay to Agent a fee (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) for the account of each Revolving Lender in an amount equal to:

(C)                               multiplied by the applicable percentage per annum listed below corresponding to the average unused daily balance of the Revolving Loan Commitment:

21

The total Unused DDTL Commitment Fee paid by the Borrower will be equal to the sum of all of the Unused DDTL Commitment Fees due to the Lenders, subject to Section 1.11(e)(vi).  Such fee shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month following the date hereof.  The Unused DDTL Commitment Fee provided in this Section 1.9(b)(ii) shall accrue at all times from and after the execution and delivery of this Agreement through the DDTL Commitment Expiration Date.

Such fee shall be paid to Agent for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders in arrears, on the first day of each calendar month and on the date on which all L/C Reimbursement Obligations have been discharged.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay to Agent, any L/C Issuer or any prospective L/C Issuer, as appropriate, on demand, such L/C Issuer’s or prospective L/C Issuer’s customary fees at then prevailing rates, without duplication of fees otherwise payable hereunder (including all per annum fees), charges and expenses of such L/C Issuer or prospective L/C Issuer in respect of the application for, and the Issuance, negotiation, acceptance, amendment, transfer and payment of, each Letter of Credit or otherwise payable pursuant to the application and related documentation under which such Letter of Credit is Issued.

 

1.10                        Payments by the Borrower.

 

(a)                                 All payments (including prepayments) to be made by each Credit Party on account of principal, interest, fees and other amounts required hereunder shall be made without set off, recoupment, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, shall, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, be made to Agent and for the ratable account of the Persons holding the applicable Obligations at the address for payment specified in the signature page hereof in relation to Agent (or such other address as Agent may from time to time specify in accordance with Section 9.2), including payments utilizing the ACH system, and shall be made in Dollars

 

22

 

and by wire transfer or ACH transfer in immediately available funds (which shall be the exclusive means of payment hereunder), no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date due.  Any payment which is received by Agent later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or at any time on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the immediately succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.  The Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application during the continuance of an Event of Default of any and all payments in respect of any Obligation and any proceeds of Collateral.  The Borrower hereby authorizes Agent and each Lender to make a Revolving Loan (which shall be a Base Rate Loan and which may be a Swing Loan) to pay interest, principal (including Swing Loans), L/C Reimbursement Obligations, agent fees, Unused Commitment Fees, Unused DDTL Commitment Fees, Letter of Credit Fees and any other fees, costs or expenses payable by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, in each instance, on the date due.

 

(b)                                 Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period” herein, if any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be excluded in the computation, and, if applicable, payment, of interest or fees, as the case may be on such next succeeding Business Day; provided that such extension of time shall be included in the next succeeding computation and payment of interest and fees.

 

(c)                                  During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may, and shall upon the direction of Required Lenders apply any and all payments received by Agent in respect of any Obligation in accordance with clauses first through sixth below.  Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, all payments made by Credit Parties to Agent after any or all of the Obligations have been accelerated (so long as such acceleration has not been rescinded), including proceeds of Collateral, shall be applied as follows:

 

first, to payment of costs and expenses, including Attorney Costs, of Agent payable or reimbursable by the Credit Parties under the Loan Documents;

 

second, to payment of Attorney Costs of Lenders payable or reimbursable by the Borrower under this Agreement;

 

third, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest and principal on any Swing Loans and fees owed to any Swingline Lender;

 

fourth, to payment of all accrued unpaid interest on the Obligations and fees owed to Agent, Lenders and L/C Issuers;

 

fifth, to payment of principal of the Obligations including, without limitation, L/C Reimbursement Obligations then due and payable, any Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract, Obligations constituting Bank Products (other than Obligations under Bank Products which are commercial credit cards, p-cards and stored value cards), and cash collateralization of unmatured L/C Reimbursement Obligations to the extent not then due and payable);

 

23

 

sixth, to payment of any other amounts owing constituting Obligations (including Obligations under Bank Products which are commercial credit cards, p-cards and stored value cards); and

 

seventh, any remainder shall be for the account of and paid to whoever may be lawfully entitled thereto.

 

In carrying out the foregoing, (i) amounts received shall be applied in the numerical order provided until exhausted prior to the application to the next succeeding category, (ii) each of the Lenders or other Persons entitled to payment shall receive an amount equal to its pro rata share of amounts available to be applied pursuant to clauses third, fourth and fifth above and (iii) no payments by a Guarantor and no proceeds of Collateral of a Guarantor shall be applied to Excluded Rate Contract Obligations of such Guarantor.

 

1.11                        Payments by the Lenders to Agent; Settlement.

 

(a)                                 Agent may, on behalf of Lenders, disburse funds to the Borrower for Loans requested.  Each Lender shall reimburse Agent on demand for all funds disbursed on its behalf by Agent, or if Agent so requests, each Lender will remit to Agent its Commitment Percentage of any Loan before Agent disburses same to the Borrower.  If Agent elects to require that each Lender make funds available to Agent prior to disbursement by Agent to the Borrower, Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Loan requested by the Borrower no later than the Business Day prior to the scheduled Borrowing date applicable thereto, and each such Lender shall pay Agent such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such requested Loan, in same day funds, by wire transfer to Agent’s account, as set forth on Agent’s signature page hereto, no later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on such scheduled Borrowing date.  Nothing in this Section 1.11(a) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the remaining provisions of Section 1.11, shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Agent, any Lender or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

 

(b)                                 At least once each calendar week or more frequently at Agent’s election (each, a “Settlement Date”), Agent shall advise each Lender by telephone or fax of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of principal, interest and Fees paid for the benefit of Lenders with respect to each applicable Loan.  Agent shall pay to each Lender such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (except as otherwise provided in Section 1.1(c)(vi) and Section 1.11(e)) of principal, interest and fees paid by the Borrower since the previous Settlement Date for the benefit of such Lender on the Loans held by it.  Such payments shall be made by wire transfer to such Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the next Business Day following each Settlement Date.

 

(c)                                  Availability of Lender’s Commitment Percentage.  Agent may assume that each Revolving Lender will make its Commitment Percentage of each Revolving Loan available to Agent on each Borrowing date.  If such Commitment Percentage is not, in fact, paid to Agent by such Revolving Lender when due, Agent will be entitled to recover such amount on

 

24

 

demand from such Revolving Lender without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.  If any Revolving Lender fails to pay the amount of its Commitment Percentage forthwith upon Agent’s demand, Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within three Business Days of receipt of Agent’s notice) repay such amount to Agent.  Nothing in this Section 1.11(c) or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to require Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Revolving Lender or to relieve any Revolving Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Revolving Lender as a result of any default by such Revolving Lender hereunder.  Without limiting the provisions of Section 1.11(b), to the extent that Agent advances funds to the Borrower on behalf of any Revolving Lender and is not reimbursed therefor on the same Business Day as such advance is made, Agent shall be entitled to retain for its account all interest accrued on such advance from the date such advance was made until reimbursed by the applicable Revolving Lender.

 

(d)                                 Return of Payments.

 

(i)                                     If Agent pays an amount to a Lender under this Agreement in the belief or expectation that a related payment has been or will be received by Agent from the Borrower and such related payment is not received by Agent, then Agent will be entitled to recover such amount from such Lender on demand without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

 

(ii)                                  If Agent determines at any time that any amount received by Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document must be returned to any Credit Party or paid to any other Person pursuant to any insolvency law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term or condition of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Agent will not be required to distribute any portion thereof to any Lender.  In addition, each Lender will repay to Agent on demand any portion of such amount that Agent has distributed to such Lender, together with interest at such rate, if any, as Agent is required to pay to the Borrower or such other Person, without setoff, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, and Agent will be entitled to set-off against future distributions to such Lender any such amounts (with interest) that are not repaid on demand.

 

(e)                                  Non-Funding Lenders; Procedures.

 

(i)                                     Responsibility.  The failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit Obligation or any payment required by it, or to make any payment required by it under any Loan Document, or to fund any purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it (including, without limitation, with respect to any Letter of Credit or Swing Loan), or make any payment required by it under any Loan Document on the date specified therefor shall not relieve any other Lender (each such other Lender, an “Other Lender”) of its obligations to make such loan, fund the purchase of any such participation, or make any other such payment required on such date, and neither Agent nor, other than as expressly set forth herein, any other Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a loan, fund the purchase of a participation or make any other payment required under any Loan Document.

 

25

 

(ii)                                  Reallocation.  If any Revolving Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, all or a portion of such Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations (unless such Lender is the L/C Issuer that Issued such Letter of Credit) and reimbursement obligations with respect to Swing Loans shall, at Agent’s election at any time or upon any L/C Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s, as applicable, written request delivered to Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default), be reallocated to and assumed by the Revolving Lenders that are not Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders pro rata in accordance with their Commitment Percentages of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (calculated as if the Non-Funding Lender’s Commitment Percentage was reduced to zero and each other Revolving Lender’s (other than any other Non-Funding Lender’s or Impacted Lender’s) Commitment Percentage had been increased proportionately), provided that no Revolving Lender shall be reallocated any such amounts or be required to fund any amounts that would cause the sum of its outstanding Revolving Loans, outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations, amounts of its participations in Swing Loans and its pro rata share of unparticipated amounts in Swing Loans to exceed its Revolving Loan Commitment.

 

(iii)                               Voting Rights.  Notwithstanding anything set forth herein to the contrary, including Section 9.1, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a “Lender” or a “Revolving Lender” or a “DDTL Lender” (or be, or have its Loans and Commitments, included in the determination of “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving Lenders” or “Lenders directly affected” pursuant to Section 9.1) for any voting or consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document, provided that (A)  the Commitment of a Non-Funding Lender may not be increased, extended or reinstated, (B) the principal of a Non-Funding Lender’s Loans may not be reduced or forgiven, and (C) the interest rate applicable to Obligations owing to a Non-Funding Lender may not be reduced in such a manner that by its terms affects such Non-Funding Lender more adversely than other Lenders, in each case without the consent of such Non-Funding Lender.  Moreover, for the purposes of determining Required Lenders and Required Revolving Lenders, the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations, and Commitments held by Non-Funding Lenders shall be excluded from the total Loans and Commitments outstanding.

 

(iv)                              Borrower Payments to a Non-Funding Lender.  Agent shall be authorized to use all payments received by Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Lender pursuant to this Agreement to pay in full the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount to the appropriate Secured Parties.  Following such payment in full of the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, Agent shall be entitled to hold such funds as cash collateral in a non-interest bearing account up to an amount equal to such Non-Funding Lender’s unfunded Revolving Loan Commitment and to use such amount to pay such Non-Funding Lender’s funding obligations hereunder until the Obligations are paid in full in cash, all Letter of Credit Obligations have been discharged or cash collateralized and all Commitments have been terminated.  Upon any such unfunded obligations owing by a Non-Funding Lender becoming due and payable, Agent shall be authorized to use such cash collateral to make such payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender.  With respect to such Non-Funding Lender’s failure to fund Revolving Loans or purchase participations in Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Obligations, any amounts applied by Agent to satisfy such funding shortfalls shall be deemed to constitute a Revolving Loan or amount of the participation required to be funded and, if necessary to effectuate the foregoing, the other Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have sold, and such Non-Funding Lender shall

 

26

 

be deemed to have purchased, Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit participation interests from the other Revolving Lenders until such time as the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Letter of Credit Obligations are held by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Commitment Percentages of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment.  Any amounts owing by a Non-Funding Lender to Agent which are not paid when due shall accrue interest at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving Loans or DDTLs, as applicable, that are Base Rate Loans.  In the event that Agent is holding cash collateral of a Non-Funding Lender that cures pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(v) or ceases to be a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to the definition of Non-Funding Lender, Agent shall return the unused portion of such cash collateral to such Lender. The “Aggregate Excess Funding Amount” of a Non-Funding Lender shall be the aggregate amount of (A) all unpaid obligations owing by such Lender to Agent, L/C Issuers, Swingline Lender, and other Lenders under the Loan Documents, including such Lender’s pro rata share of all Revolving Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans, plus, without duplication, and (B) all amounts of such Non-Funding Lender’s Letter of Credit Obligations and reimbursement obligations with respect to Swing Loans reallocated to other Lenders pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(ii)

 

(v)                                 Cure.  A Lender may cure its status as a Non-Funding Lender under clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender if such Lender (A) fully pays to Agent, on behalf of the applicable Secured Parties, the Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, plus all interest due thereon and (B) timely funds the next Revolving Loan required to be funded by such Lender or makes the next reimbursement required to be made by such Lender.  Any such cure shall not relieve any Lender from liability for breaching its contractual obligations hereunder.

 

(vi)                              Fees.  A Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall not earn and shall not be entitled to receive, and the Borrower shall not be required to pay, such Lender’s portion of the Unused Commitment Fee or Unused DDTL Commitment Fee during the time such Lender is a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to such clause (a).  In the event that any reallocation of Letter of Credit Obligations occurs pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(ii), during the period of time that such reallocation remains in effect, the Letter of Credit Fee payable with respect to such reallocated portion shall be payable to (A) all Revolving Lenders based on their pro rata share of such reallocation or (B) to the L/C Issuer for any remaining portion not reallocated to any other Revolving Lenders.  So long as a Lender is a Non-Funding Lender, the Letter of Credit Fee payable with respect to any Letter of Credit Obligation of such Non-Funding Lender that has not been reallocated pursuant to Section 1.11(e)(ii) shall be payable to the L/C Issuer.

 

(f)                                   Procedures.  Agent is hereby authorized by each Credit Party and each other Secured Party to establish procedures (and to amend such procedures from time to time) to facilitate administration and servicing of the Loans and other matters incidental thereto.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent is hereby authorized to establish procedures to make available or deliver, or to accept, notices, documents and similar items on, by posting to or submitting and/or completion on, E-Systems.

 

(g)                                  Cashless Settlement.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans or Commitments in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar

 

27

 

transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the Agent and such Lender.

ARTICLE II.
 CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

 

2.1                               Conditions of Initial Loans.

 

The obligation of each Lender to make its initial Loans and of each L/C Issuer to Issue, or cause to be Issued, the initial Letters of Credit hereunder is subject to satisfaction of the following conditions in a manner satisfactory to Agent:

 

(a)                                 Loan Documents.  Agent shall have received on or before the Closing Date all of the agreements, documents, instruments and other items set forth on the closing checklist attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 (except those items that are expressly permitted to be delivered after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.15), each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision in any Loan Documents to the contrary, to the extent a perfected security interest in any Collateral (the security interest in respect of which cannot be perfected by means of the filing of a UCC

 

33

4.6                               Insurance.

 

(a)                                 Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, (i) maintain or cause to be maintained in full force and effect all policies of insurance of any kind with respect to the Property and businesses of the Credit Parties and such Subsidiaries (including policies of life, fire, theft, product liability, public liability, Flood Insurance, property damage, other casualty, employee fidelity, workers’ compensation, business interruption and employee health and welfare insurance) with financially sound and reputable insurance companies or associations (in each case that are not Affiliates of the Borrower) of a nature and providing such coverage as is sufficient and as is customarily carried by businesses of the size and character of the business of the Credit Parties and (ii) cause all such insurance relating to any Property or business of any Credit Party to name Agent as additional insured or lenders loss payee, as agent for the Lenders, as appropriate.  All policies of insurance on real and personal property of the Credit Parties will contain an endorsement, in form and substance acceptable to Agent, showing loss payable to Agent (Form CP 1218 or equivalent and naming Agent as lenders loss payee as agent for the Lenders) and extra expense and business interruption endorsements.  Such endorsement, or an independent instrument furnished to Agent, will provide that the insurance companies will give Agent at least 30 days’ prior written notice before any such policy or policies of insurance shall be altered or canceled and that no act or default of the Credit Parties or any other Person shall affect the right of Agent to recover under such policy or policies of insurance in case of loss or damage.  Each Credit Party shall direct all present and future insurers under its “All Risk” policies of property insurance to pay all proceeds payable thereunder directly to Agent.  If any insurance proceeds are paid by check, draft or other instrument payable to any Credit Party and Agent jointly, Agent may endorse such Credit Party’s name thereon and do such other things as Agent may deem advisable to reduce the same to cash.  Agent reserves the right at any time, upon review of each Credit Party’s risk profile, to require additional forms and limits of insurance.  Notwithstanding the requirement in clause (i) above, Federal Flood Insurance shall not be required for (x) Real Estate not located in a Special Flood Hazard Area, or (y) Real Estate located in a Special Flood Hazard Area in a community that does not participate in the National Flood Insurance Program.

 

(b)                                 Unless the Credit Parties provide Agent with evidence of the insurance coverage required by this Agreement (including, without limitation, Flood Insurance), Agent may, after ten (10) days’ prior notice to the Borrower (and an opportunity for the Credit Parties to cure during such period) or at any time if an Event of Default exists, purchase insurance (including, without limitation, Flood Insurance) at the Credit Parties’ expense to protect Agent’s and Lenders’ interests in the Credit Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ properties.  This insurance may, but need not, protect the Credit Parties’ and their Subsidiaries’ interests.  The coverage that Agent purchases may not pay any claim that any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party makes or any claim that is made against such Credit Party or any Subsidiary in connection with said Property.  The Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Agent, but only after providing Agent with evidence that there has been obtained insurance as required by this Agreement.  If Agent purchases insurance, the Credit Parties will be responsible for the costs of that insurance, including interest and any other charges Agent may impose in

 

60

 

connection with the placement of insurance, until the effective date of the cancellation or expiration of the insurance. The costs of the insurance shall be added to the Obligations.  The costs of the insurance may be more than the cost of insurance the Borrower may be able to obtain on its own.

 

(c)                                  The Credit Parties appoint Agent as their attorney-in-fact to settle or adjust all property damage claims under its casualty insurance policies; provided, that such power of attorney shall only be exercised so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.  Agent shall have no duty to exercise such power of attorney, but may do so at its discretion.

 

4.7                               Payment of Obligations.

 

Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, pay, discharge and perform as the same shall become due and payable or required to be performed, all their respective obligations and liabilities, including:

 

(a)                                 all Tax liabilities, assessments and governmental charges or levies upon it or its Property, unless the same (i) do not involve an aggregate tax liability in excess of $10,000 per applicable jurisdiction or (ii) are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the filing or enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person.

 

(b)                                 all lawful claims which, if unpaid, would by law become a Lien upon its Property unless the same are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently prosecuted which stay the imposition or enforcement of any Lien and for which adequate reserves in accordance with GAAP are being maintained by such Person;

 

(c)                                  all Indebtedness having an aggregate principal amount of more than $1,000,000, as and when due and payable, but subject to any subordination provisions contained herein, in any other Loan Documents and/or in any instrument or agreement evidencing such Indebtedness;

 

(d)                                 the performance of all obligations under any Contractual Obligation to such Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries is bound, or to which it or any of its Property is subject, including the Related Agreements, except where the failure to perform would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect; and

 

(e)                                  payments to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of a Lien with respect to, or the involuntary termination of any underfunded Benefit Plan.

 

4.8                               Compliance with Laws.

 

Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with all Requirements of Law of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it or its business, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

 

61

 

4.9                               Inspection of Property and Books and Records.

 

Each Credit Party shall maintain and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to maintain proper books of record and account, in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP consistently applied shall be made of all financial transactions and matters involving the assets and business of such Person.  Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, with respect to each owned, leased, or controlled property, during normal business hours and upon reasonable advance notice (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in which event no notice shall be required and Agent shall have access at any and all times during the continuance thereof):  (a) provide access to such property to Agent and any of its Related Persons, as frequently as Agent determines to be reasonably appropriate; and (b) permit Agent and any of its Related Persons to conduct field examinations, audit, inspect and make extracts and copies (or take originals if reasonably necessary) from all of such Credit Party’s books and records, and evaluate and make physical verifications and appraisals of the Inventory and other Collateral in any manner and through any medium that Agent considers advisable, in each instance, at the Credit Parties’ expense; provided that, in addition to reimbursement of Agent for expenses of field examinations, audit and inspections prior to the Closing Date, a take-down field examination following the Closing Date and in connection with any Permitted Acquisition, the Credit Parties shall only be obligated to reimburse Agent for the expenses for two such field examinations, audits and inspections per year, or more frequently if either (i) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or (ii) the average daily Availability in any fiscal month reaches or falls below $20,000,000.  Any Lender may accompany Agent or its Related Persons in connection with any inspection at such Lender’s expense.

 

4.10                        Use of Proceeds.

 

The Borrower shall use the proceeds of (a) the Term Loan on the Closing Date solely to, first, repay all amounts owing under the existing Indebtedness of BioRx (other than Indebtedness to be agreed upon), and, thereafter, (i) to pay a portion of the consideration under the BioRx Acquisition Agreement, and (ii) pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Related Transactions, (b) Revolving Loans and Swing Loans made after the Closing Date solely for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes not in contravention of any Requirement of Law and not in violation of this Agreement, including for Permitted Acquisitions and Restricted Payments to the extent permitted to be made under Section 5.11, (c) the DDTLs solely for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes not in contravention of any Requirement of Law and not in violation of this Agreement, including for Permitted Acquisitions and other Investments permitted under this Agreement, but excluding Restricted Payments, and (d) the Incremental Term Loans solely to finance Permitted Acquisitions and other Investments permitted under this Agreement.

 

4.11                        Cash Management Systems.

 

(a)                                 Each Credit Party shall enter into, and cause each depository, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary to enter into, Control Agreements providing for “full” cash dominion with respect to each of its deposit, securities, commodity or similar accounts maintained by such Person (other than any payroll account, any zero balance account,

 

62

 

any withholding tax account, any trust or fiduciary account, any petty cash accounts with amounts on deposit of less than $250,000 in the aggregate at any one time for all such petty cash accounts, any Segregated Governmental Account and other exceptions explicitly set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of this Section 4.11) as of or after the Closing Date.  For purposes of computing interest and fees any payments made to Agent through such accounts shall be deemed received on the Business Day following the Business Day on which immediately available funds are received by Agent prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) with respect to such payment, and any payment which is received by Agent through such accounts later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on any Business Day or at any time on a day that is not a Business Day shall be deemed to have been received on the second succeeding Business Day.  In addition, at Agent’s request, Credit Parties will enter into Control Agreements providing for springing cash dominion over disbursement accounts as of the Closing Date, except as set forth in the preceding sentences.  At any time that there is no Term Loan (including any Incremental Term Loan) outstanding and either (i) the aggregate amount of outstanding Obligations exceeds $5,000,000 or (ii) a Default or Event of Default exists, the Credit Parties shall not maintain cash on deposit in disbursement accounts in excess of $5,000,000 plus the amount of outstanding checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and amounts necessary to meet minimum balance requirements.  The Credit Parties shall establish deposit accounts at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to Control Agreements providing for “full” cash dominion (collectively, the “Controlled Collateral Account”) and direct all Account Debtors to remit all payments directly to such Controlled Collateral Account (except that, in those of Governmental Payors making payments under Medicare or Medicaid, the Credit Parties shall establish, and direct such Governmental Payors to remit all payments to, a Segregated Governmental Account at Comerica Bank or another Lender).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Credit Parties may instruct Account Debtors to make payment to an alternate address for electronic deposit capture (“EDC Payments”), which such EDC Payments shall be immediately deposited by the Credit Parties in the Controlled Collateral Account; provided that, in the event the aggregate amount of EDC Payments in any three calendar month period ending on or after the Closing Date exceeds 40% of the aggregate Account collections in such period, or at any time a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Credit Parties shall, promptly upon Agent’s request, establish lockboxes subject to Control Agreements at Comerica Bank and direct all such Account Debtors to make payment to such lockboxes or to the Controlled Collateral Account.

 

(b)                                 AHF and MedPro shall be permitted to retain amounts in its existing deposit accounts at TD Bank and First Citizens Bank, as applicable, sufficient to meet necessary minimum balance requirements as well as pay checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and outstanding against such accounts.  In the event that such accounts referenced in the immediately prior sentence contain, in the aggregate, $5,000,000 or more at any one time (or, after December 31, 2015, $1,000,000 or more at any one time in accounts not subject to a Control Agreement), then AHF or MedPro, as applicable, shall transfer such excess amount to the deposit account(s) at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to a Control Agreement within three (3) Business Days thereafter.  Neither AHF nor MedPro shall make any disbursements out of such deposit accounts at TD Bank and First Citizens Bank after June 30, 2015 (other than payment checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and outstanding against such accounts as of June 30, 2015 and, for the avoidance of doubt, transfers to the deposit accounts at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to a Control Agreement).

 

63

 

(c)                                  BioRx shall be permitted to retain amounts in its existing deposit accounts at Bank of Kentucky, PNC Bank and Amalgamated Bank (the “BioRx Banks”) sufficient to meet necessary minimum balance requirements as well as pay checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and outstanding against such accounts.  In the event that such accounts referenced in the immediately prior sentence contain, in the aggregate, $5,000,000 or more at any one time (or, after September 30, 2016, $1,000,000 or more at any one time in accounts not subject to a Control Agreement), then BioRx shall transfer such excess amount to the deposit account(s) at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to a Control Agreement within three (3) Business Days thereafter.  BioRx shall not make any disbursements out of such accounts at the BioRx Banks after October 31, 2015 other than payment checks and wire transfers payable from such accounts and outstanding against such accounts as of October 31, 2015 and, for the avoidance of doubt, transfers to the deposit accounts at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to a Control Agreement).

 

(d)                                 Envoy shall be permitted to maintain a zero balance account at Comerica or another Lender for receipt of collections and for disbursements in the ordinary course of its business so long as amounts in such account are transferred to an account(s) at Comerica Bank or another Lender subject to a Control Agreement on the date of receipt (and Envoy shall at all times maintain standing instructions to transfer such amounts to such account(s)).

 

(e)                                  In addition, in order to segregate and to facilitate perfection of Agent’s security interest in funds received from Governmental Payors making payments under Medicare or Medicaid, if any, the Credit Parties agree that the Credit Parties shall (a) segregate collections made from Governmental Payors making payments under Medicare or Medicaid, from collections made from all other Account Debtors and customers of the applicable Credit Parties, including, without limitation, by (i) notifying all payors (other than Governmental Payors making payments under Medicare or Medicaid) then instructed to make payments to such Credit Parties’ deposit accounts to make payments to a deposit account subject to a Control Agreement, and (ii) notifying all Governmental Payors making payments under Medicare or Medicaid to make payments to a Segregated Governmental Account, and (b) enter into, and cause each applicable depository to enter into, a “sweep” agreement (a “Sweep Agreement”) with respect to each Segregated Governmental Account pursuant to which such depository will agree to sweep amounts deposited therein on daily basis to a deposit account of the Credit Parties subject to a Control Agreement in favor of Agent as and when funds clear and become available in accordance with such depository’s customary procedures, each with such financial institution and each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent.  No Credit Party may change any sweep instruction set forth in such Sweep Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent.

 

(f)                                   To the extent any Person, whether a Governmental Payor or otherwise, remits payments to an incorrect deposit account or otherwise makes payments not in accordance with the provisions of this Section 4.11 or an applicable Credit Party’s payment direction, such Credit Party shall contact such Person and use its commercially reasonable efforts to redirect payment from such Person in accordance with the terms hereof. Agent agrees and confirms that Credit Parties will have sole dominion and “control” (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC and the common law) over each Segregated Governmental Account and all funds therein and Agent and each Lender disclaims any right of any nature whatsoever to control or

 

64

 

otherwise direct or make any claim against the funds held in any Segregated Governmental Account from time to time (including any right of setoff against each such Segregated Governmental Account).  In addition, promptly following the Closing Date and thereafter, to the extent any Person, whether a Governmental Payor or otherwise, remits payments that constitute EDC Payments, such Credit Party shall contact such Person and use its commercially reasonable efforts to direct payment from such Person to the Controlled Collateral Account or the Segregated Government Account.

 

4.12                        Landlord Agreements.

 

Each Credit Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a landlord agreement or bailee or mortgagee waivers, as applicable, from the lessor of each leased Property, bailee in possession of any Collateral or mortgagee of any owned Property with respect to each location where any Collateral is stored or located, in each case for locations where the Inventory at such location or in possession of said third party has an aggregate book value of $750,000 or more or where books and records of a Credit Party are located, which agreement shall be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to Agent; provided, that, except as to locations at which books and records are located, each Credit Party shall not be required to use such commercially reasonable efforts until the Inventory Inclusion Date.

 

4.13                        Further Assurances.

 

(a)                                 Each Credit Party shall ensure that all written information, exhibits and reports furnished to Agent or the Lenders do not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact and do not and will not omit to state any material fact or any fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading in any material respect in light of the circumstances in which made, and will promptly disclose to Agent and the Lenders and correct any defect or error that may be discovered therein or in any Loan Document or in the execution, acknowledgement or recordation thereof.

 

(b)                                 Promptly upon request by Agent, the Credit Parties shall (and, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to) take such additional actions and execute such documents as Agent may reasonably require from time to time in order (i) to carry out more effectively the purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) to subject to the Liens created by any of the Collateral Documents any of the Properties, rights or interests covered by any of the Collateral Documents, (iii) to perfect and maintain the validity, effectiveness and priority of any of the Collateral Documents and the Liens intended to be created thereby, and (iv) to better assure, convey, grant, assign, transfer, preserve, protect and confirm to the Secured Parties the rights granted or now or hereafter intended to be granted to the Secured Parties under any Loan Document.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and except as otherwise approved in writing by Required Lenders, the Credit Parties shall cause each of their Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Domestic Subsidiaries owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary) and, to the extent no 956 Impact exists, Foreign Subsidiaries, and Domestic Subsidiaries owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary, to guaranty the Obligations and to cause each such Subsidiary to grant to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in, subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth, all of such Subsidiary’s Property to secure such guaranty.  Furthermore and except as

 

65

 

otherwise approved in writing by Required Lenders, each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Domestic Subsidiaries owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary) to, pledge all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of each of its Domestic Subsidiaries (other than Domestic Subsidiaries owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary) and First Tier Foreign Subsidiaries (provided that with respect to any First Tier Foreign Subsidiary, if a 956 Impact exists such pledge shall be limited to sixty-five percent (65%) of such Foreign Subsidiary’s outstanding voting Stock and Stock Equivalents and one hundred percent (100%) of such Foreign Subsidiary’s outstanding non-voting Stock and Stock Equivalents) and to the extent no 956 Impact exists, each of its Foreign Subsidiaries to pledge all of the Stock and Stock Equivalent of each of its Subsidiaries, in each instance, to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, to secure the Obligations.  The Credit Parties shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent, appropriate resolutions, secretary certificates, certified Organization Documents and, if requested by Agent, legal opinions relating to the matters described in this Section 4.13 (which opinions shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent and, to the extent applicable, substantially similar to the opinions delivered on the Closing Date), in each instance with respect to each Credit Party formed or acquired after the Closing Date.  In connection with each pledge of Stock and Stock Equivalents, the Credit Parties shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Agent, irrevocable proxies and stock powers and/or assignments, as applicable, duly executed in blank.  A “956 Impact” will be deemed to exist to the extent the issuance of a guaranty by, grant of a Lien by, or pledge of greater than two-thirds of the voting Stock and Stock Equivalents of, a Foreign Subsidiary, would result in material incremental income tax liability as a result of the application of Section 956 of the Code, taking into account actual anticipated repatriation of funds, foreign tax credits and other relevant factors.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon its formation and for so long as the Primrose Health Joint Venture is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary of the Borrower, the Primrose Health Joint Venture shall not be required to guaranty the Obligations and shall not be required to grant to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a security interest in its Property, but the Credit Parties shall be required to pledge all of the Stock and Stock Equivalents of the Primrose Health Joint Venture owned by any Credit Party (and the organizational documents of the Primrose Health Joint Venture shall expressly permit such pledge and the exercise of remedies by Agent in respect thereof on terms acceptable to Agent in its sole discretion).

 

(c)                                  In the event any Credit Party or any Domestic Subsidiary (other than Domestic Subsidiaries owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary) or, to the extent no 956 Impact exists, any Foreign Subsidiary, or any Domestic Subsidiary owned indirectly through a Foreign Subsidiary, of any Credit Party acquires any Real Estate with a fair market value in excess of $2,000,000, simultaneously with such acquisition, such Person shall execute and/or deliver, or cause to be executed and/or delivered, to Agent, (w) within forty-five (45) days of receipt of notice from Agent that Real Estate is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area, Federal Flood Insurance as required by Section 4.6(a), (x) a fully executed Mortgage, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent together with an A.L.T.A. lender’s title insurance policy issued by a title insurer reasonably satisfactory to Agent, in form and substance and in an amount reasonably satisfactory to Agent insuring that the Mortgage is a valid and enforceable first priority Lien on the respective Property, free and clear of all defects, encumbrances and Liens other than Permitted Liens, (y) then current A.L.T.A. surveys, certified to Agent by a licensed surveyor sufficient to allow the issuer of the lender’s title insurance policy to issue such policy without a survey exception and (z) an environmental site assessment prepared by a

 

66

 

qualified firm reasonably acceptable to Agent, in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.  In addition to the obligations set forth in Sections 4.6(a) and 4.13(b)(w), within forty-five days after written notice from Agent to Credit Parties that any Real Estate is located in a Special Flood Hazard Area, Credit Parties shall satisfy the Federal Flood Insurance requirements of Section 4.6(a).

 

(d)                                 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent reasonably necessary to maintain the continuing priority of the Lien of any existing Mortgages as security for the Obligations in connection with the funding of a DDTL or incurrence of an Incremental Facility, as determined by Agent in its reasonable discretion, the applicable Credit Party to any Mortgages shall within forty-five (45) days of such funding or incurrence (or such later date as agreed by Agent) (i) enter into and deliver to Agent, at the direction and in the reasonable discretion of Agent, a mortgage modification or new Mortgage in proper form for recording in the relevant jurisdiction and in a form reasonably satisfactory to Agent, (ii) cause to be delivered to Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties an endorsement to the title insurance policy, date down(s) or other evidence reasonably satisfactory to Agent insuring that the priority of the Lien of the Mortgages as security for the Obligations has not changed and confirming and/or insuring that since the issuance of the title insurance policy there has been no change in the condition of title and there are no intervening liens or encumbrances which may then or thereafter take priority over the Lien of the Mortgages (other than those expressly permitted by Section 5.1(c)) and (iii) deliver, at the request of Agent, to Agent and/or all other relevant third parties, all other items reasonably necessary to maintain the continuing priority of the Lien of the Mortgages as security for the Obligations.

 

4.14                        Environmental Matters.

 

(a)                                 Each Credit Party shall, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to, comply with, and maintain its Real Estate, whether owned, leased, subleased or otherwise operated or occupied, in compliance with, all applicable Environmental Laws (including by implementing any Remedial Action necessary to achieve such compliance) or that is required by orders and directives of any Governmental Authority except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Environmental Liability.  Without limiting the foregoing, if an Event of Default is continuing or if Agent at any time has a reasonable basis to believe that there exist violations of Environmental Laws by any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party or that there exist any Material Environmental Liabilities, then each Credit Party shall, promptly upon receipt of request from Agent, cause the performance of, and allow Agent and its Related Persons access to such Real Estate for the purpose of conducting, such environmental audits and assessments, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater, and cause the preparation of such reports, in each case as Agent may from time to time reasonably request.  Such audits, assessments and reports, to the extent not conducted by Agent or any of its Related Persons, shall be conducted and prepared by reputable environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to Agent and shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent.

 

(b)                                 Borrower and each applicable Credit Party will comply in all material respects with the Headquarters Due Care Plan and Section 20107a of Part 201 of the Natural

 

67

 

Resources and Environmental Protection Act, 1994 PA 451, as amended, and any associated regulations and guidance.

 

4.15                        Post-Closing Obligations

 

As a material inducement to Agent and Lenders entering into and performing their respective obligations under this Agreement, Borrower hereby agrees to complete each item set forth on Schedule 4.15 hereto on or prior to the date indicated with respect thereto on Schedule 4.15.

84

 

with such other powers as are incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Secured Parties.

 

8.3                               Use of Discretion.

 

(a)                                 Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents); provided, that Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law; and

 

(b)                                 Agent shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Credit Party or its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity; and

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Credit Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, Agent in accordance with the Loan Documents for the benefit of all the Lenders and the L/C Issuer; provided that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) each of the L/C Issuer and the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.11 or (iv) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Credit Party under any bankruptcy or other debtor relief law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (A) the Required Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to Agent pursuant to Section 7.2 and (B) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 9.11, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

 

8.4                               Delegation of Rights and Duties.

 

Agent may, upon any term or condition it specifies, delegate or exercise any of its rights, powers and remedies under, and delegate or perform any of its duties or any other action with respect to, any Loan Document by or through any trustee, co-agent, employee, attorney-in-fact and any other Person (including any Secured Party).  Any such Person shall benefit from this Article VIII to the extent provided by Agent.

 

85

 

8.5                               Reliance and Liability.

 

(a)                                 Agent may, without incurring any liability hereunder, (i) treat the payee of any Note as its holder until such Note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.9, (ii) rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 1.4, (iii) consult with any of its Related Persons and, whether or not selected by it, any other advisors, accountants and other experts (including advisors to, and accountants and experts engaged by, any Credit Party) and (iv) rely and act upon any document and information (including those transmitted by Electronic Transmission) and any telephone message or conversation, in each case believed by it to be genuine and transmitted, signed or otherwise authenticated by the appropriate parties.

 

(b)                                 None of Agent and its Related Persons shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with any Loan Document, and each Secured Party, the Borrower and each other Credit Party hereby waive and shall not assert (and the Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and agree not to assert) any right, claim or cause of action based thereon, except to the extent of liabilities resulting primarily from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person (each as determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction) in connection with the duties expressly set forth herein.  Without limiting the foregoing, Agent and its Related Persons:

 

(i)                                     shall not be responsible or otherwise incur liability for any action or omission taken in reliance upon the instructions of the Required Lenders or for the actions or omissions of any of its Related Persons selected with reasonable care (other than employees, officers and directors of Agent, when acting on behalf of Agent);

 

(ii)                                  shall not be responsible to any Lender, L/C Issuer or other Person for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, effectiveness, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document;

 

(iii)                               makes no warranty or representation, and shall not be responsible, to any Lender, L/C Issuer or other Person for any statement, document, information, representation or warranty made or furnished by or on behalf of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party in connection with any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein or any other document or information with respect to any Credit Party, whether or not transmitted or (except for documents expressly required under any Loan Document to be transmitted to the Lenders) omitted to be transmitted by Agent, including as to completeness, accuracy, scope or adequacy thereof, or for the scope, nature or results of any due diligence performed by Agent in connection with the Loan Documents; and

 

(iv)                              shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any provision of any Loan Document, whether any condition set forth in any Loan Document is satisfied or waived, as to the financial condition of any Credit Party or as to the existence or continuation or possible occurrence or continuation of any Default or Event of Default and shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of such occurrence or continuation unless it has received a notice from the Borrower, any Lender or L/C Issuer

 

86

 

describing such Default or Event of Default clearly labeled “notice of default” (in which case Agent shall promptly give notice of such receipt to all Lenders);

(d)                                 Neither Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any duties or obligations in connection with or as a result of any Lender or L/C Issuer receiving a copy of any Agent Report. Without limiting the generality of the forgoing, neither Agent nor any of its Related Persons shall have any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of any Agent Report, or the appropriateness of any Agent Report for any Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s purposes, and shall have no duty or responsibility to correct or update any Agent Report or disclose to any Lender or L/C Issuer any other information not embodied in any Agent Report, including any supplemental information obtained after the date of any Agent Report.

(a)                                 Each Lender and each L/C Issuer acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon Agent, any Lender or L/C Issuer or any of their Related Persons or upon any document (including any offering and disclosure materials in connection with the syndication of the Loans) solely or in part because such document was transmitted by Agent or any of its Related Persons, conduct its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of each Credit Party and make and continue to make its own credit decisions in connection with entering into, and taking or not taking any action under, any Loan Document or with respect to any transaction contemplated in any Loan Document, in each case based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate.  Except for documents expressly required by any Loan Document to be transmitted by Agent to the Lenders or L/C Issuers, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or L/C Issuer with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, Property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party that may come in to the possession of Agent or any of its Related Persons.

 

(b)                                 If any Lender or L/C Issuer has elected to abstain from receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates, such Lender or L/C Issuer acknowledges that, notwithstanding such election, Agent and/or the Credit Parties will, from time to time, make available syndicate-information (which may contain MNPI) as required by the terms of, or in the course of administering the Loans to the credit contact(s) identified for receipt of such information on the Lender’s administrative questionnaire who are able to receive and use all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI) in accordance with such Lender’s compliance policies and contractual obligations and applicable law, including federal and state securities laws; provided, that if such contact is not so identified in such questionnaire, the relevant Lender or L/C Issuer hereby agrees to promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) provide such a contact to Agent and the Credit Parties upon request therefor by Agent or the Credit Parties. Notwithstanding such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s election to abstain from receiving MNPI, such Lender or L/C Issuer acknowledges that if such Lender or L/C Issuer chooses to communicate with Agent, it assumes the risk of receiving MNPI concerning the Credit Parties or their Affiliates.

 

8.8                               Expenses; Indemnities; Withholding.

 

(a)                                 Each Lender agrees to reimburse Agent and each of its Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party) promptly upon demand, severally and ratably, for any costs and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of financial, legal and

 

88

 

other advisors and Other Taxes paid in the name of, or on behalf of, any Credit Party) that may be incurred by Agent or any of its Related Persons in connection with the preparation, syndication, execution, delivery, administration, modification, consent, waiver or enforcement of, or the taking of any other action (whether through negotiations, through any work-out, bankruptcy, restructuring or other legal or other proceeding (including, without limitation, preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) or otherwise) in respect of, or legal advice with respect to its rights or responsibilities under, any Loan Document.

 

(b)                                 Each Lender further agrees to indemnify Agent, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by any Credit Party), severally and ratably, from and against Liabilities (including, to the extent not indemnified pursuant to Section 8.8(c), Taxes, interests and penalties imposed for not properly withholding or backup withholding on payments made to or for the account of any Lender) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Agent, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Related Persons in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of any Loan Document, any Related Document, and Letter of Credit or any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any such document, or, in each case, any action taken or omitted to be taken by Agent, any L/C Issuer or any of their respective Related Persons under or with respect to any of the foregoing; provided, that with respect to any indemnification owed to any L/C Issuer or any of its Related Persons in connection with any Letter of Credit, only Revolving Lenders shall be required to indemnify, such indemnification to be made severally and ratably based on such Revolving Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitment (determined as of the time the applicable indemnification is sought by such L/C Issuer or Related Person from the Revolving Lenders); provided, further, however, that no Lender shall be liable to Agent or any of its Related Persons to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Agent or, as the case may be, such Related Person, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order.

 

(c)                                  To the extent required by any Requirement of Law, Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document an amount equal to any applicable withholding Tax (including withholding Taxes imposed under Chapters 3 and 4 of Subtitle A of the Code).  If the IRS or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate certification form was not delivered, was not properly executed, or fails to establish an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to a particular type of payment, or because such Lender failed to notify Agent or any other Person of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective, failed to maintain a Participant Register or for any other reason), or Agent reasonably determines that it was required to withhold Taxes from a prior payment but failed to do so, such Lender shall promptly indemnify Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent as Tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, and together with all expenses incurred by Agent, including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses.  Agent may offset against any payment to any Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax that was required to be withheld from any prior payment to such

 

89

 

Lender but which was not so withheld, as well as any other amounts for which Agent is entitled to indemnification from such Lender under this Section 8.8(c).

 

8.9                               Resignation of Agent or L/C Issuer.

 

(a)                                 Agent may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, upon the date such notice shall be effective in accordance with the terms of this Section 8.9.  If Agent delivers any such notice, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent.  If, within 30 days after the retiring Agent having given notice of resignation, no successor Agent has been appointed by the Required Lenders that has accepted such appointment, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent from among the Lenders.  Each appointment under this Section 8.9(a) shall be subject to the prior consent of the Borrower, which may not be unreasonably withheld but shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default.

 

(b)                                 Effective immediately upon its resignation, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of Agent until a successor Agent shall have accepted a valid appointment hereunder, (iii) the retiring Agent and its Related Persons shall no longer have the benefit of any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken while such retiring Agent was, or because such Agent had been, validly acting as Agent under the Loan Documents and (iv) subject to its rights under Section 8.3, the retiring Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Agent its rights as Agent under the Loan Documents.  Effective immediately upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Agent, a successor Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents.

 

(c)                                  Any L/C Issuer may resign at any time by delivering notice of such resignation to Agent, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is set forth therein, on the date such notice shall be effective.  Upon such resignation, the L/C Issuer shall remain an L/C Issuer and shall retain its rights and obligations in its capacity as such (other than any obligation to Issue Letters of Credit but including the right to receive fees or to have Lenders participate in any L/C Reimbursement Obligation thereof) with respect to Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer prior to the date of such resignation and shall otherwise be discharged from all other duties and obligations under the Loan Documents.

to Extended Revolving Loan Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments, (2) subject to Section 9.1(b), all Swing Loans and Letters of Credit shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments (including Extended Revolving Loan Commitments) in accordance with their percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Loan Commitments, (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Loan Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Loan Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to repay permanently and terminate commitments of any such Class on a better than pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later commitment termination date than such Class, (4) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and related Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to the other Classes of Revolving Loan Commitments and Revolving Loans and (5) at no time shall there be Revolving Loan Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and any original Revolving Loan Commitments) which have more than two (2) different maturity dates;

 

(iii)                               except as to interest rates, fees, amortization, final maturity date, premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which shall, subject to immediately succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer, subject to acceptance by the Extending Term Lenders), the Term Loans of any Term Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans owed to it (an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have the same terms as the Class of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer (except for covenants or other provisions contained therein applicable only to periods after the then latest maturity date);

 

(iv)                              the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the latest maturity date of the Term Loans extended thereby and the amortization schedule applicable to Loans pursuant to Section 1.8(a) for periods prior to the original maturity date of the Term Loans shall not be increased;

 

(v)                                 the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby;

 

(vi)                              any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or a less than pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) with non-extended Classes of Term Loans in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Extension Offer; and

 

(vii)                           if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the outstanding principal amount thereof) and/or Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as applicable, shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Loan Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans of such Term

 

96

 

Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as applicable, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal or commitment amounts with respect to which such Term Lenders and/or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension Offer.

 

With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 1.7 or 1.8 and (ii) no Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment; provided that the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Loan Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Classes be tendered Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Loan Commitments on the such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit or conflict with any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section.

 

No consent of any Lender shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (A) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Loan Commitments (or a portion thereof) and (B) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Loan Commitments, the consent of the L/C Issuer and Swing Line Lender.  All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Loan Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations.  The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrower (on behalf of all Credit Parties) as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes or sub-Classes in respect of Revolving Loan Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary in the reasonable opinion of Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Classes or sub-Classes, in each case on terms consistent with this Section.  In addition, if so provided in such amendment and with the consent of each L/C Issuer, participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the applicable commitment termination date shall be re-allocated from Lenders holding non-extended Revolving Loan Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Loan Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Loan Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Loan Commitments and the terms of such participation interests shall be adjusted accordingly.  Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the applicable Credit Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and Agent is hereby directed by the Lenders to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the later of the then latest (x) maturity date of the Term Loans and (y) scheduled termination date of the Revolving Loan Commitments, so that such maturity date referenced therein is extended to the later of the then (x) latest maturity date of the Term Loans and (y) scheduled termination date of the Revolving Loan Commitments

 

97

 

(or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to Agent).  Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the effectiveness of each such amendment.

 

In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide Agent at least twenty (20) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (including regarding timing, rounding and other adjustments and to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 9.1(g).

 

This Section 9.1(g) shall supersede any provisions of this Section 9.1 or Section 9.11 to the contrary.

 

(h)                                 No amendment or waiver shall, unless signed by Agent and each DDTL Lender directly affected thereby (or by Agent with the consent of each DDTL Lender directly affected thereby) in addition to the Required Lenders (or by Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders): (i) amend or waive compliance with the conditions precedent to the obligations of Lenders to make any DDTL in Section 2.3; (ii) waive any Default or Event of Default for the purpose of satisfying the conditions precedent to the obligations of Lenders to make any DDTL in Section 2.3; or (iii) amend or waive this Section 9.1(h) or the definitions of the terms used in this Section 9.1(h) insofar as the definitions affect the substance of this Section 9.1(h).

 

9.2                               Notices.

 

(a)                                 Addresses.  All notices and other communications required or expressly authorized to be made by this Agreement shall be given in writing, unless otherwise expressly specified herein, and (i) addressed to the address set forth on the applicable signature page hereto (in the case of such notices and other communications to Agent, including a mandatory e-mail notice to the e-mail address on the applicable signature page hereto), (ii) posted to Syndtrak® the extent such system is available and set up by or at the direction of Agent prior to posting) in an appropriate location by uploading such notice, demand, request, direction or other communication to www.SyndTrak.com or using such other means of posting to Syndtrak® as may be available and reasonably acceptable to Agent prior to such posting, (iii) posted to any other E-System approved by or set up by or at the direction of Agent or (iv) addressed to such other address as shall be notified in writing (A) in the case of the Borrower, Agent and the Swingline Lender, to the other parties hereto and (B) in the case of all other parties, to the Borrower and Agent.  Transmissions made by electronic mail or E-Fax to Agent shall be effective only (x) for notices where such transmission is specifically authorized by this Agreement, (y) if such transmission is delivered in compliance with procedures of Agent applicable at the time and previously communicated to Borrower, and (z) if receipt of such transmission is acknowledged by Agent.

 

(b)                                 Effectiveness.  (i)  All communications described in Section 9.2(a) and all other notices, demands, requests and other communications made in connection with this Agreement shall be effective and be deemed to have been received (i) if delivered by hand, upon personal delivery, (ii) if delivered by overnight courier service, one (1) Business Day after

 

98

 

delivery to such courier service, (iii) if delivered by mail, three (3) Business Days after deposit in the mail, (iv) if delivered by facsimile (other than to post to an E-System pursuant to Section 9.2(a)(ii) or (a)(iii)), upon sender’s receipt of confirmation of proper transmission, and (v) if delivered by posting to any E-System, on the later of the Business Day of such posting and the Business Day access to such posting is given to the recipient thereof in accordance with the standard procedures applicable to such E-System; provided, however, that no communications to Agent pursuant to Article I shall be effective until received by Agent.

 

(ii)                                  The posting, completion and/or submission by any Credit Party of any communication pursuant to an E System shall constitute a representation and warranty by the Credit Parties that any representation, warranty, certification or other similar statement required by the Loan Documents to be provided, given or made by a Credit Party in connection with any such communication is true, correct and complete except as expressly noted in such communication or E-System.

 

(c)                                  Each Lender shall notify Agent in writing of any changes in the address to which notices to such Lender should be directed, of addresses of its Lending Office, of payment instructions in respect of all payments to be made to it hereunder and of such other administrative information as Agent shall reasonably request.

 

9.3                               Electronic Transmissions.

 

(a)                                 Authorization.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.2(a), each of Agent, Lenders, each Credit Party and each of their Related Persons, is authorized (but not required) to transmit, post or otherwise make or communicate, in its sole discretion, Electronic Transmissions in connection with any Loan Document and the transactions contemplated therein.  Each Credit Party and each Secured Party hereto acknowledges and agrees that the use of Electronic Transmissions is not necessarily secure and that there are risks associated with such use, including risks of interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts such risks by hereby authorizing the transmission of Electronic Transmissions.

 

(b)                                 Signatures.  Subject to the provisions of Section 9.2(a), (i)(A) no posting to any E-System shall be denied legal effect merely because it is made electronically, (B) each E Signature on any such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “signature” and (C) each such posting shall be deemed sufficient to satisfy any requirement for a “writing”, in each case including pursuant to any Loan Document, any applicable provision of any UCC, the federal Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act and any substantive or procedural Requirement of Law governing such subject matter, (ii) each such posting that is not readily capable of bearing either a signature or a reproduction of a signature may be signed, and shall be deemed signed, by attaching to, or logically associating with such posting, an E-Signature, upon which Agent, each Secured Party and each Credit Party may rely and assume the authenticity thereof, (iii) each such posting containing a signature, a reproduction of a signature or an E-Signature shall, for all intents and purposes, have the same effect and weight as a signed paper original and (iv) each party hereto or beneficiary hereto agrees not to contest the validity or enforceability of any posting on any E-System or E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions of any applicable Requirement of Law requiring certain documents to be in writing or signed;

 

99

 

provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit such party’s or beneficiary’s right to contest whether any posting to any E-System or E-Signature has been altered after transmission.

 

(c)                                  Separate Agreements.  All uses of an E-System shall be governed by and subject to, in addition to Section 9.2 and this Section 9.3, the separate terms, conditions and privacy policy posted or referenced in such E-System (or such terms, conditions and privacy policy as may be updated from time to time, including on such E System) and related Contractual Obligations executed by Agent and Credit Parties in connection with the use of such E-System.

 

(d)                                 LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.  ALL E-SYSTEMS AND ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSIONS SHALL BE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.  NONE OF AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS WARRANTS THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR COMPLETENESS OF ANY E-SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION AND DISCLAIMS ALL LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS THEREIN.  NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND IS MADE BY AGENT, ANY LENDER OR ANY OF THEIR RELATED PERSONS IN CONNECTION WITH ANY E SYSTEMS OR ELECTRONIC COMMUNICATION, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS.  Each of the Borrower, each other Credit Party executing this Agreement and each Secured Party agrees that Agent has no responsibility for maintaining or providing any equipment, software, services or any testing required in connection with any Electronic Transmission or otherwise required for any E-System.

 

9.4                               No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

 

No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor 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.  No course of dealing between any Credit Party, any Affiliate of any Credit Party, Agent or any Lender shall be effective to amend, modify or discharge any provision of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.

 

9.5                               Costs and Expenses.

 

Any action taken by any Credit Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of Agent or Required Lenders, shall be at the expense of such Credit Party, and neither Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party therefor except as expressly provided therein.  In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand (a) Agent for all reasonable out of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons, in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and

 

100

 

administration of any transaction contemplated therein, in each case including Attorney Costs of Agent, the cost of environmental audits, Collateral audits and appraisals, background checks and similar expenses, (b) Agent for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its Related Persons in connection with internal audit reviews, field examinations and Collateral examinations, including Agent’s internal field examination group (which shall be reimbursed, in addition to the out-of-pocket costs and expenses of such examiners, at the per diem rate per individual charged by Agent for its examiners), (c) each of Agent, its Related Persons, and L/C Issuer for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out”, (ii) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (iii) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action (including, without limitation, preparation for and/or response to any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto) with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Credit Party, any Subsidiary of any Credit Party, Loan Document, Obligation or Related Transaction, including Attorney Costs and (d) fees and disbursements of Attorney Costs of one law firm on behalf of all Lenders (other than Agent) incurred in connection with any of the matters referred to in clause (c) above.

 

9.6                               Indemnity.

 

(a)                                 Each Credit Party agrees to indemnify, hold harmless and defend Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each of their respective Related Persons (each such Person being an “Indemnitee”) from and against all Liabilities (including brokerage commissions, fees and other compensation) that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or as a result of (i) any Loan Document, any Related Agreement, any Obligation (or the repayment thereof), any Letter of Credit, the use or intended use of the proceeds of any Loan or the use of any Letter of Credit or any securities filing of, or with respect to, any Credit Party, (ii) any commitment letter, proposal letter or term sheet with any Person or any Contractual Obligation, arrangement or understanding with any broker, finder or consultant, in each case entered into by or on behalf of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any of them in connection with any of the foregoing and any Contractual Obligation entered into in connection with any E-Systems or other Electronic Transmissions, (iii) any actual or prospective investigation, litigation or other proceeding, whether or not brought by any such Indemnitee or any of its Related Persons, any holders of securities or creditors (and including attorneys’ fees in any case), whether or not any such Indemnitee, Related Person, holder or creditor is a party thereto, and whether or not based on any securities or commercial law or regulation or any other Requirement of Law or theory thereof, including common law, equity, contract, tort or otherwise or (iv) any other act, event or transaction related, contemplated in or attendant to any of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that no Credit Party shall have any liability under this Section 9.6 to any Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnified Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any Indemnified Matter other than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has resulted primarily from (i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order or (ii) a dispute solely among Indemnitees (other than any claims against any Indemnitee solely in its capacity as the Agent or an arranger or any

 

101

 

similar role under the Loan Documents) not arising out of any act or omission on the part of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party.  Furthermore, each of the Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement waives and agrees not to assert against any Indemnitee, and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive and not assert against any Indemnitee, any right of contribution with respect to any Liabilities that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Related Person.  This Section 9.6(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent Liabilities arising from any non-Tax claim.

 

(b)                                 Without limiting the foregoing, “Indemnified Matters” includes all Environmental Liabilities, including those arising from, or otherwise involving, any Property of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or any actual, alleged or prospective damage to Property or natural resources or harm or injury alleged to have resulted from any Release of Hazardous Materials on, upon or into such Property or natural resource or any Property on or contiguous to any Real Estate of any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party, whether or not, with respect to any such Environmental Liabilities, any Indemnitee is a mortgagee pursuant to any leasehold mortgage, a mortgagee in possession, the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party or the owner, lessee or operator of any Property of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to the extent such Environmental Liabilities (i) are incurred solely following foreclosure by Agent or following Agent or any Lender having become the successor-in-interest to any Credit Party or any Related Person of any Credit Party and (ii) are attributable solely to acts of such Indemnitee.

 

9.7                               Marshaling; Payments Set Aside.

 

No Secured Party shall be under any obligation to marshal any Property in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any Obligation.  To the extent that any Secured Party receives a payment from the Borrower, from any other Credit Party, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights of setoff, any enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or in part, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not occurred.

 

9.8                               Successors and Assigns.

 

The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns; provided that any assignment by any Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.9, and provided further that the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Agent and each Lender.

 

9.9                               Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.

 

(a)                                 Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrower, the other Credit Parties signatory hereto and Agent and

 

102

 

when Agent shall have been notified by each Lender that such Lender has executed it.  Thereafter, it shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the Borrower, the other Credit Parties hereto (in each case except for Article VIII), Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer receiving the benefits of the Loan Documents and, to the extent provided in Section 8.11, each other Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted assigns.  Except as expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in Section 8.9), none of the Borrower, any other Credit Party, any L/C Issuer or Agent shall have the right to assign any rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein.

 

(b)                                 Right to Assign.  Each Lender may sell, transfer, negotiate or assign (a “Sale”) all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of Credit) to (i) any existing Lender (other than a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender), (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender (other than a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender) or (iii) any other Person acceptable (which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to Agent and, with respect to Sales of Revolving Loan Commitments, each L/C Issuer that is a Lender and, as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower (which acceptances shall be deemed to have been given unless an objection is delivered to Agent within five (5) Business Days after notice of a proposed sale is delivered to the Borrower); provided, however, that (v) such Sales must be ratable among the obligations owing to and owed by such Lender with respect to the Revolving Loans, (w) for each Loan, the aggregate outstanding principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment) of the Loans, Commitments and Letter of Credit Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate or Approved Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its Affiliates and Approved Funds) entire interest in such facility or is made with the prior consent of the Borrower (to the extent required) and Agent, (x) such Sales shall be effective only upon the acknowledgement in writing of such Sale by Agent, (y) interest accrued prior to and through the date of any such Sale may not be assigned, and (z) such Sales by Lenders who are Non-Funding Lenders due to clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall be subject to Agent’s prior written consent in all instances, unless in connection with such Sale, such Non-Funding Lender cures, or causes the cure of, its Non-Funding Lender status as contemplated in Section 1.11(e)(v).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender may enter into a Sale of all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder to a Credit Party, an Affiliate of a Credit Party or a natural Person.  Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale to a holder of Subordinated Indebtedness or an Affiliate of such a holder, or to any Person that would be a Non-Funding Lender or an Impacted Lender, or the imposition of conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such Persons, shall not be deemed to be unreasonable.

 

(c)                                  Procedure.  The parties to each Sale made in reliance on Section 9.9(b) (other than those described in Section 9.9(e) or (f)) shall execute and deliver to Agent an Assignment via an electronic settlement system designated by Agent (or, if previously agreed with Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the Assignment) evidencing such Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of loss therefor acceptable to Agent), any Tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to Section 10.1 and payment of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 to Agent, unless waived or reduced by Agent; provided, that (i) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an Affiliate or an Approved Fund of such assigning

 

103

 

Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in connection with such Sale, and (ii) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that is not an Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or more Affiliates or Approved Funds of such Assignee, then only one assignment fee of $3,500 shall be due in connection with such Sale (unless waived or reduced by Agent).  Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and conditioned upon such receipt and, if such Assignment is made in accordance with clause (iii) of Section 9.9(b), upon Agent (and the Borrower, if applicable) consenting to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment, Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the information contained in such Assignment.

 

(d)                                 Effectiveness.  Subject to the recording of an Assignment by Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 1.4(b), (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations under the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such Assignment, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note shall be transferred to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

 

(e)                                  Grant of Security Interests.  In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or otherwise assign as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or hereafter acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans), to (A) any federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board), without notice to Agent or (B) any holder of, or trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Indebtedness or equity securities, by notice to Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or trustee, whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless such foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with Section 9.9(b)), shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender shall be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

 

(f)                                   Participants and SPVs.  In addition to the other rights provided in this Section 9.9, each Lender may, (x) with notice to Agent, grant to an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment with respect to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from Agent or the Borrower, sell participations to one or more Persons other than a Credit Party or an Affiliate of a Credit Party in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents (including all its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loans, Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term of any Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or participant shall have a commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans hereunder, and, except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for

 

104

 

any obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and obligations, and the rights and obligations of the Credit Parties and the Secured Parties towards such Lender, under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto shall continue to deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations in the Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled to the benefit of Article X, but, with respect to Section 10.1, only to the extent such participant or SPV delivers the Tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to Section 10.1(f) and then only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the absence of any such grant or participation except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater amount results from any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law that occurs after the date such grant or participation is made (and in consideration of the foregoing, each such Participant and SPV shall be deemed to have acknowledged and agreed to be bound by the provisions of Section 9.22 and (B) each such SPV may receive other payments that would otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided to Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided, however, that in no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an SPV or participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document, and (iii) the consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a restraint on such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any amendments, waivers or consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for those described in clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 9.1(a) with respect to amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or SPV would otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those described in Section 9.1(a)(vi).  No party hereto shall institute (and the Borrower shall cause each other Credit Party not to institute) against any SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this Section 9.9(f) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV; provided, however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify each Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against, such Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a failure to be reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability).  The agreement in the preceding sentence shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations.    Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person other than Agent except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to

 

105

 

the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, Agent shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

 

9.10                        Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.

 

(a)                                 Non-Public Information.  Each of Agent, each Lender and L/C Issuer acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information (“MNPI”) hereunder concerning the Credit Parties and their Affiliates and agrees to use such information in compliance with all relevant policies, procedures and applicable Requirements of Laws (including United States federal and state securities laws and regulations).

 

(b)                                 Confidential Information.  Each of Agent, each Lender and each  L/C Issuer agrees to use all reasonable efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the confidentiality of information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in writing by any Credit Party as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed (i) with the Borrower’s consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent, as the case may be, or to any Person that any L/C Issuer causes to Issue Letters of Credit hereunder, that are advised of the confidential nature of such information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with the terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or hereafter becomes (A) publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.10 or (B) available to such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Credit Party) not known by them to be subject to disclosure restrictions, (iv) to the extent disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process or requested or demanded by any Governmental Authority, provided, however, that each of Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer shall, unless prohibited by applicable Requirements of Law and to the extent practicable, use commercially reasonable efforts to inform the Borrower prior to such disclosure, (v) to the extent necessary or customary for inclusion in league table measurements, (vi) (A) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or (B) otherwise to the extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Credit Parties, (vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors or prospective investors therein) or participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Secured Rate Contracts and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent such assignees, investors, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by provisions substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 9.10 (and such Person may disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with clause (ii) above), (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with the exercise or enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with any litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, or to the extent necessary to respond to public statements or disclosures by Credit Parties or their Related Persons referring to a Lender, L/C Issuer or Agent or any of their Related Persons.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Section 9.10 and those of any other Contractual Obligation entered into with any Credit Party (whether or not a Loan Document), the terms of this Section 9.10 shall govern.

 

(c)                                  Tombstones.  Each Credit Party consents to the publication by Agent or any Lender of any press releases, tombstones, advertising or other promotional materials

 

106

 

(including, without limitation, via any Electronic Transmission) relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement using such Credit Party’s name, product photographs, logo or trademark.

 

(d)                                 Press Release and Related Matters.  No Credit Party shall, and no Credit Party shall permit any of its Affiliates to, issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental Authority relating to a public offering of securities of any Credit Party) using the name, logo or otherwise referring to GE Capital or of any of its Affiliates, the Loan Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein to which GE Capital or any of its Affiliates is party without the prior written consent of GE Capital or such Affiliate except to the extent required to do so under applicable Requirements of Law and then, only after consulting with GE Capital.

 

(e)                                  Distribution of Materials to Lenders and L/C Issuers.  The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Loan Documents and all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) may be disseminated by, or on behalf of, Agent, and made available, to the Lenders and the L/C Issuers by posting such Borrower Materials on an E-System. The Credit Parties authorize Agent to download copies of their logos from its website and post copies thereof on an E-System.

 

(f)                                   Material Non-Public Information.  The Credit Parties hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Credit Parties has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, clearly and conspicuously mark such Borrower Materials that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC”. The Credit Parties agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Credit Parties further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI:  (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, and (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared by the Credit Parties or Agent (including, Notices of Borrowing, Notices of Conversion/Continuation, L/C Requests, Swingline requests and any similar requests or notices posted on or through an E-System). Before distribution of any Borrower Materials, the Credit Parties agree to execute and deliver to Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the evaluation materials to prospective Lenders and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of evaluation materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

 

9.11                        Set-off; Sharing of Payments.

 

(a)                                 Right of Setoff.  Each of Agent, each Lender, each L/C Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them is hereby authorized, without

 

107

 

notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by each Credit Party), at any time and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (whether general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other Indebtedness, claims or other obligations at any time owing by Agent, such Lender, such L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party against any Obligation of any Credit Party now or hereafter existing, whether or not any demand was made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though such Obligation may be unmatured.  No Lender or L/C Issuer shall exercise any such right of setoff without the prior consent of Agent or Required Lenders. Each of Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.  The rights under this Section 9.11 are in addition to any other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuer, their Affiliates and the other Secured Parties, may have.

 

(b)                                 Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Lender, directly or through an Affiliate or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Credit Party (whether voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the receipt of any Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC) of Collateral) other than pursuant to Section 9.9 or Article X and such payment exceeds the amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone to, and been distributed by, Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Lenders such participations in their Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such Lenders to ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by Agent and applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then be at the discretion of the Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith); provided, however, that (i) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise recovered from such Lender or L/C Issuer in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price therefor shall be returned to such Lender or L/C Issuer without interest and (ii) such Lender shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the applicable Credit Party in the amount of such participation.  If a Non-Funding Lender receives any such payment as described in the previous sentence, such Lender shall turn over such payments to Agent in an amount that would satisfy the cash collateral requirements set forth in Section 1.11(e).

 

9.12                        Counterparts; Facsimile Signature.

 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.  Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.

9.13                        Severability.

 

The illegality or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder shall not in any way affect or impair the legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement or any instrument or agreement required hereunder.

The captions and headings of this Agreement are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of this Agreement.

 

9.15                        Independence of Provisions.

 

The parties hereto acknowledge that this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may use several different limitations, tests or measurements to regulate the same or similar matters, and that such limitations, tests and measurements are cumulative and must each be performed, except as expressly stated to the contrary in this Agreement.

 

9.16                        Interpretation.

 

This Agreement is the result of negotiations among and has been reviewed by counsel to Credit Parties, Agent, each Lender and other parties hereto, and is the product of all parties hereto.  Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be construed against the Lenders or Agent merely because of Agent’s or Lenders’ involvement in the preparation of such documents and agreements.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each of the parties hereto has had the advice of counsel with respect to Sections 9.18 and 9.19.

 

9.17                        No Third Parties Benefited.

 

This Agreement is made and entered into for the sole protection and legal benefit of the Borrower, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers party hereto, Agent and, subject to the provisions of Section 8.11, each other Secured Party, and their permitted successors and assigns, and no other Person shall be a direct or indirect legal beneficiary of, or have any direct or indirect cause of action or claim in connection with, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents.  Neither Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to any Person not a party to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

109

 

Borrower and each other Credit Party executing this Agreement hereby accepts for itself and in respect of its Property, generally and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall limit the right of Agent to commence any proceeding in the federal or state courts of any other jurisdiction to the extent Agent determines that such action is necessary or appropriate to exercise its rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.  The parties hereto (and, to the extent set forth in any other Loan Document, each other Credit Party) hereby irrevocably waive any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, that any of them may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any such action or proceeding in such jurisdictions.

 

(c)                                  Service of Process.  Each Credit Party hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and other documents and other service of process of any kind and consents to such service in any suit, action or proceeding brought in the United States of America with respect to or otherwise arising out of or in connection with any Loan Document by any means permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, including by the mailing thereof (by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid) to the address of the Borrower specified herein (and shall be effective when such mailing shall be effective, as provided therein).  Each Credit Party agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law.  Nothing contained in this Section 9.18 shall affect the right of Agent or any Lender to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Requirements of Law.

 

9.19                        WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

 

THE PARTIES HERETO, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, SUIT, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH OR RELATING TO, THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY OTHER TRANSACTION CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND THEREBY.  THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE.

 

9.20                        ENTIRE AGREEMENT; RELEASE; SURVIVAL.

 

(a)                                 THE LOAN DOCUMENTS EMBODY THE ENTIRE AGREEMENT OF THE PARTIES AND SUPERSEDE ALL PRIOR AGREEMENTS AND UNDERSTANDINGS RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER THEREOF AND ANY PRIOR LETTER OF INTEREST, COMMITMENT LETTER, CONFIDENTIALITY AND SIMILAR AGREEMENTS INVOLVING ANY CREDIT PARTY AND ANY LENDER OR ANY L/C ISSUER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES RELATING TO A FINANCING OF SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM, PURPOSE OR EFFECT OTHER THAN THE FEE LETTER.  IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL GOVERN (UNLESS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY STATED IN SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR SUCH TERMS OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE NECESSARY TO COMPLY WITH APPLICABLE REQUIREMENTS OF LAW, IN

 

110

 

WHICH CASE SUCH TERMS SHALL GOVERN TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO COMPLY THEREWITH).

 

(b)                                 Execution of this Agreement by the Credit Parties constitutes a full, complete and irrevocable release of any and all claims which each Credit Party may have at law or in equity in respect of all prior discussions and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In no event shall any Indemnitee be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings).  Each of the Borrower and each other Credit Party signatory hereto hereby waives, releases and agrees (and shall cause each other Credit Party to waive, release and agree) not to sue upon any such claim for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

 

(c)                                  (i) Any indemnification or other protection provided to any Indemnitee pursuant to this Section 9.20, Sections 9.5 (Costs and Expenses) and 9.6 (Indemnity) and Article VIII (Agent) and Article X (Taxes, Yield Protection and Illegality) and (ii) the provisions of Section 8.1 of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, in each case, shall (x) survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of all other Obligations and (y) with respect to clause (i) above, inure to the benefit of any Person that at any time held a right thereunder (as an Indemnitee or otherwise) and, thereafter, its successors and permitted assigns.

 

9.21                        Patriot Act.

 

Each Lender that is subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies the Credit Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Credit Party, which information includes the name and address of each Credit Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Credit Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

 

9.22                        Replacement of Lender.

 

Within forty-five days after:  (i) receipt by the Borrower of written notice and demand from (A) any Lender that is not Agent or an Affiliate of Agent (an “Affected Lender”) for payment of additional costs as provided in Sections 10.1, 10.3 and/or 10.6 or (B) any SPV or participant (an “Affected SPV/Participant”) for payment of additional costs as provided in Section 9.9(f), unless the option or participation of such Affected SPV/Participant shall have been terminated prior to the exercise by the Borrower of its rights hereunder; or (ii) any failure by any Lender (other than Agent or an Affiliate of Agent) to consent to a requested amendment, waiver or modification to any Loan Document in which Required Lenders have already consented to such amendment, waiver or modification but the consent of each Lender (or each Lender directly affected thereby, as applicable) is required with respect thereto, the Borrower may, at its option, notify (A) in the case of clause (i)(A) or (ii) above, Agent and such Affected Lender (or such non-consenting Lender) of the Borrower’s intention to obtain, at the Borrower’s expense, a replacement Lender (“Replacement Lender”) for such Affected Lender (or such non-consenting Lender), or (B) in the case of clause (i)(B) above, Agent, such Affected SPV/Participant, if known, and the applicable Lender (such Lender, a “Participating Lender”)

 

111

 

that (1) granted to such Affected SPV/Participant the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Participating Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder or (2) sold to such Affected SPV/Participant a participation in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, of the Borrower’s intention to obtain, at the Borrower’s expense, a Replacement Lender for such Participating Lender, in each case, which Replacement Lender shall be reasonably satisfactory to Agent.  In the event the Borrower obtains a Replacement Lender within forty-five (45) days following notice of its intention to do so, the Affected Lender (or such non-consenting Lender) or Participating Lender, as the case may be, shall sell and assign its Loans and Commitments to such Replacement Lender, at par, provided that the Borrower has reimbursed such Affected Lender or Affected SPV/Participant, as applicable, for its increased costs for which it is entitled to reimbursement under this Agreement through the date of such sale and assignment, and in the case of a Participating Lender being replaced by a Replacement Lender, (x) all right, title and interest in and to the Obligations and Commitments so assigned to the Replacement Lender shall be assigned free and clear of all Liens or other claims (including pursuant to the underlying option or participation granted or sold to the Affected SPV/Participant, but without affecting any rights, if any, of the Affected SPV/Participant to the proceeds constituting the purchase price thereof) of the Affected SPV/Participant, and (y) to the extent required by the underlying option or participation documentation, such Participating Lender shall apply all or a portion of the proceeds received by it as a result of such assignment, as applicable, to terminate in full the option or participation of such Affected SPV/Participant.  In the event that a replaced Lender does not execute an Assignment pursuant to Section 9.9 within five (5) Business Days after receipt by such replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 9.22 and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 9.22, the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute such an Assignment on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment so executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender and Agent, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 9.22 and Section 9.9.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to a Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender or an Impacted Lender, Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, obtain a Replacement Lender and execute an Assignment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender at any time with three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to such Lender (unless notice is not practicable under the circumstances) and cause such Lender’s Loans and Commitments to be sold and assigned, in whole or in part, at par.  Upon any such assignment and payment and compliance with the other provisions of Section 9.9, such replaced Lender shall no longer constitute a “Lender” for purposes hereof; provided, any rights of such replaced Lender to indemnification hereunder shall survive.

 

9.23                        Joint and Several.

 

The obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are joint and several.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, reference is hereby made to Article II of the Guaranty and Security Agreement, to which the obligations of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties are subject.

 

9.24                        Creditor-Debtor Relationship.

 

The relationship between Agent, each Lender and the L/C Issuer, on the one hand, and the Credit Parties, on the other hand, is solely that of creditor and debtor.  No Secured Party has

 

112

 

any fiduciary relationship or duty to any Credit Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency, tenancy or joint venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Credit Parties by virtue of, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

 

9.25                        Actions in Concert.

 

Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender that no Lender shall take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Credit Party arising out of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of setoff) without first obtaining the prior written consent of Agent or Required Lenders, it being the intent of Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or with the consent of Agent or Required Lenders.

 

9.26                        Keepwell.

 

Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of its obligations under the Guaranty and Security Agreement in respect of Swap Obligations under any Secured Rate Contract (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.26 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.26, or otherwise under the Guaranty and Security Agreement, voidable under applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 9.26 shall remain in full force and effect until the guarantees in respect of Swap Obligations under each Secured Rate Contract have been discharged, or otherwise released or terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.26 constitute, and this Section 9.26 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

10.1                        Taxes.

 

(a)                                 Except as required by a Requirement of Law, each payment by any Credit Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings (including backup withholding), assessments, fees or other charges imposed by any Governmental Authority, including any interest, additions to tax, penalties or other Liabilities with respect thereto (collectively, “Taxes”).

 

(b)                                 If any Taxes shall be required by any Requirement of Law to be deducted from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to any Secured Party (i) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, such amount payable shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes are made (including deductions

 

113

 

applicable to any increases to any amount under this Section 10.1), such Secured Party receives the amount it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the relevant Credit Party shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Credit Party shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) within 30 days after such payment is made, the relevant Credit Party shall deliver to Agent an original or certified copy of a receipt evidencing such payment or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

 

(c)                                  In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay, and authorizes Agent to pay in its name, any stamp, documentary, excise or property Tax, charges or similar levies imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or Governmental Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any delay in payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated therein (collectively, “Other Taxes”), except any such Other Taxes imposed with respect to an assignment (other than an assignment made pursuant to Section 9.22).  The Swingline Lender may, without any need for notice, demand or consent from the Borrower, by making funds available to Agent in the amount equal to any such payment, make a Swing Loan to the Borrower in such amount, the proceeds of which shall be used by Agent in whole to make such payment.  Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Other Taxes by any Credit Party, the Borrower shall furnish to Agent, at its address referred to in Section 9.2, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to Agent.

 

(d)                                 The Credit Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) neither GE Capital nor any Affiliate of GE Capital has provided any Tax advice to any Tax Affiliate in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby or any other matters and (ii)  the Credit Parties have received appropriate Tax advice to the extent necessary to confirm that the structure of any transaction contemplated by the Credit Parties in connection with this Agreement complies in all material respects with applicable federal, state and foreign Tax laws.

 

(e)                                  The Borrower shall reimburse and indemnify, within 30 days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to Agent), each Secured Party for all Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 10.1) paid or payable by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Secured Party pursuant to this Section 10.1(e) for any amounts for penalties or interest incurred more or accruing than 270 days prior to the date that such Secured Party notifies the Borrower, in writing, of the Tax, and of the Secured Party’s intention to claim compensation therefrom; provided further, that if a Tax is retroactive, the 270 day period described in the foregoing clause is extended to include the retroactive period.  A certificate of the Secured Party (or of Agent on behalf of such Secured Party) claiming any compensation under this Section 10.1(e), setting forth the amounts to be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower with copy to Agent, shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.  In determining such amount, Agent and such Secured Party may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

 

114

 

(f)                                   Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 10.1 shall use its commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if such a change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may thereafter accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

 

(g)                                  (i)                               Each Non-U.S. Lender Party that, at any of the following times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding Tax or, after a change in any Requirement of Law, is subject to such withholding Tax at a reduced rate under an applicable Tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such Non-U.S. Lender Party becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this clause (i) and (z) from time to time if requested by the Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed originals of each of the following, as applicable:  (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business), W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding Tax) and/or W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting statements) or any successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming exemption under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E (claiming exemption from U.S. withholding Tax) or any successor form and a certificate in form and substance acceptable to Agent that such Non-U.S. Lender Party is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the entitlement of such Non-U.S. Lender Party to such exemption from United States withholding Tax or reduced rate with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender Party under the Loan Documents.  Unless the Borrower and Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Non-U.S. Lender Party are not subject to United States withholding Tax or are subject to such Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable Tax treaty, the Credit Parties and Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

 

(ii)                                  Each U.S. Lender Party shall (A) on or prior to the date such U.S. Lender Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior to the date on which any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously delivered by it pursuant to this Section 10.1(g) and (D) from time to time if requested by the Borrower or Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with two completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is entitled to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding Tax) or any successor form.

 

115

 

(iii)                               Each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or identified an SPV as such to Agent shall collect from such participant or SPV the documents described in this Section 10.1(g) and provide them to Agent.

 

(iv)                              If a payment made to a Non-U.S. Lender Party would be subject to United States federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Non-U.S. Lender Party fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Non-U.S. Lender Party shall deliver to Agent and the Borrower any documentation under any Requirement of Law or reasonably requested by Agent or the Borrower sufficient for Agent or the Borrower to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Non-U.S. Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  Solely for the purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

 

(h)                                 If any Secured Party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 10.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 10.1(b)), it shall pay to the relevant Credit Party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 10.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such Secured Party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund).  Such Credit Party, upon the request of such Secured Party, shall repay to such Secured Party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 10.1(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 10.1(h), in no event shall the Secured Party be required to pay any amount to a Credit Party pursuant to this Section 10.1(h) the payment of which would place the Secured Party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Secured Party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid.  This Section 10.1(h) shall not be construed to require any Secured Party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Credit Party or any other Person.

 

10.2                        Illegality.

 

If after the date hereof any Lender shall determine that the introduction of any Requirement of Law, or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or administration thereof, has made it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its Lending Office to make LIBOR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through Agent, the obligation of that Lender to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall be suspended until such Lender shall have notified Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exists.

 

116

 

(a)                                 Subject to Section 10.2(c) below, if any Lender shall determine that it is unlawful to maintain any LIBOR Rate Loan, the Borrower shall prepay in full all LIBOR Rate Loans of such Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, either on the last day of the Interest Period thereof if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Rate Loans, together with any amounts required to be paid in connection therewith pursuant to Section 10.4.

 

(b)                                 If the obligation of any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans has been terminated, the Borrower may elect, by giving notice to such Lender through Agent that all Loans which would otherwise be made by any such Lender as LIBOR Rate Loans shall be instead Base Rate Loans.

 

(c)                                  Before giving any notice to Agent pursuant to this Section 10.2, the affected Lender shall designate a different Lending Office with respect to its LIBOR Rate Loans if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice or making such demand and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be illegal or otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

 

10.3                        Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

 

(a)                                 If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall determine that, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law), in the case of either clause (i) or (ii) above subsequent to the date hereof, (x) there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender or L/C Issuer of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any LIBOR Rate Loans or of Issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or any reduction of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or L/C Issuer hereunder or (y) the Lender or L/C Issuer shall be subject to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, then the Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, within thirty (30) days of demand therefor by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to Agent), pay to Agent for the account of such Lender or L/C Issuer, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such increased costs or such Taxes; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 10.3(a) for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrower, in writing of the increased costs and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the circumstance giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

(b)                                 If any Lender or L/C Issuer shall have determined that:

 

(i)                                     the introduction of any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

 

(ii)                                  any change in any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

 

117

 

(iii)                               any change in the interpretation or administration of any Capital Adequacy Regulation by any central bank or other Governmental Authority charged with the interpretation or administration thereof; or

 

(iv)                              compliance by such Lender or L/C Issuer (or its Lending Office) or any entity controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer, with any Capital Adequacy Regulation;

 

affects the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or L/C Issuer or any entity controlling such Lender or L/C Issuer and (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such entities’ policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity  and such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased as a consequence of its Commitment(s), loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, within thirty (30) days of demand of such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy to Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or L/C Issuer, from time to time as specified by such Lender or L/C Issuer, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer (or the entity controlling the Lender or L/C Issuer) for such increase; provided, that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 10.3(b) for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or L/C Issuer notifies the Borrower, in writing of the amounts and of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation thereof; provided, further, that if the event giving rise to such increase is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (ii) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case in respect of this clause (ii) pursuant to Basel III, shall, in each case, be deemed to be a change in a Requirement of Law under Section 10.3(a) and/or a change in Capital Adequacy Regulation under Section 10.3(b) above, as applicable, regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued.

 

10.4                        Funding Losses.

 

The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

 

(a)                                 the failure of the Borrower to make any payment or mandatory prepayment of principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan (including payments made after any acceleration thereof);

 

(b)                                 the failure of the Borrower to borrow, continue or convert a Loan after it has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation;

 

(c)                                  the failure of the Borrower to make any prepayment after it has given a notice in accordance with Section 1.7;

 

118

 

(d)                                 the prepayment (including pursuant to Section 1.8) of a LIBOR Rate Loan on a day which is not the last day of the Interest Period with respect thereto; or

 

(e)                                  the conversion pursuant to Section 1.6 of any LIBOR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period;

 

including any such loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained; provided that, with respect to the expenses described in Section 10.4(d) and (e), such Lender shall have notified Agent of any such expense within two (2) Business Days of the date on which such expense was incurred.  Solely for purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 10.4 and under Section 10.3(a):  each LIBOR Rate Loan made by a Lender (and each related reserve, special deposit or similar requirement) shall be conclusively deemed to have been funded at the LIBOR used in determining the interest rate for such LIBOR Rate Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the interbank Eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR Rate Loan is in fact so funded.

 

10.5                        Inability to Determine Rates.

 

If Agent shall have determined in good faith that for any reason adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan or that the LIBOR applicable pursuant to Section 1.3(a) for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding or maintaining such Loan, Agent will forthwith give notice of such determination to the Borrower and each Lender.  Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans hereunder shall be suspended until Agent revokes such notice in writing.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation then submitted by it.  If the Borrower does not revoke such notice, the Lenders shall make, convert or continue the Loans, as proposed by the Borrower, in the amount specified in the applicable notice submitted by the Borrower, but such Loans shall be made, converted or continued as Base Rate Loans.

 

10.6                        Reserves on LIBOR Rate Loans.

 

The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, as long as such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional costs on the unpaid principal amount of each LIBOR Rate Loan equal to actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior written notice (with a copy to Agent) of such additional interest from the Lender.  If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest shall be payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

 

119

 

10.7                        Certificates of Lenders.

 

Any Lender claiming reimbursement or compensation pursuant to this Article X shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to such Lender hereunder and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error.

11.2        Other Interpretive Provisions.

 

(a)           Defined Terms.  Unless otherwise specified herein or therein, all terms defined in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto.  The meanings of defined terms shall be equally applicable to the singular and plural forms of the defined terms.  Terms (including uncapitalized terms) not otherwise defined herein and that are defined in the UCC shall have the meanings therein described.

 

(b)           The Agreement.  The words “hereof”, “herein”, “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall refer to this Agreement or such other Loan Document as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement or such other Loan Document; and subsection, section, schedule and exhibit references are to this Agreement or such other Loan Documents unless otherwise specified.

 

(c)           Certain Common Terms.  The term “documents” includes any and all instruments, documents, agreements, certificates, indentures, notices and other writings, however evidenced.  The term “including” is not limiting and means “including without limitation.”

 

153

 

(d)           Performance; Time.  Whenever any performance obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document (other than a payment obligation) shall be stated to be due or required to be satisfied on a day other than a Business Day, such performance shall be made or satisfied on the next succeeding Business Day.  For the avoidance of doubt, the initial payments of interest and fees relating to the Obligations (other than amounts due on the Closing Date) shall be due and paid on the first day of the first month or quarter, as applicable, following the entry of the Obligations onto the operations systems of Agent, but in no event later than the first day of the second month or quarter, as applicable, following the Closing Date.  In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”; the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding”, and the word “through” means “to and including.” If any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document refers to any action taken or to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking, such provision shall be interpreted to encompass any and all means, direct or indirect, of taking, or not taking, such action.

 

(e)           Contracts.  Unless otherwise expressly provided herein or in any other Loan Document, references to agreements and other contractual instruments, including this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, thereto, restatements and substitutions thereof and other modifications and supplements thereto which are in effect from time to time, but only to the extent such amendments and other modifications are not prohibited by the terms of any Loan Document.

 

(f)            Laws.  References to any statute or regulation may be made by using either the common or public name thereof or a specific cite reference and, except as otherwise provided with respect to FATCA, are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions related thereto or consolidating, amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation.

 

11.3        Accounting Terms and Principles.

 

All accounting determinations required to be made pursuant hereto shall, unless expressly otherwise provided herein, be made in accordance with GAAP.  No change in the accounting principles used in the preparation of any financial statement hereafter adopted by the Borrower shall be given effect for purposes of measuring compliance with any provision of Article V or VI unless the Borrower, Agent and the Required Lenders agree to modify such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP and, unless such provisions are modified, all financial statements, Compliance Certificates and similar documents provided hereunder shall be provided together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts set forth therein before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.  Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to in Article V and Article VI shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825-10 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other Liabilities of any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party at “fair value.”  A breach of a financial covenant contained in Article VI shall be deemed to have occurred as of any date of determination by Agent or as of the last day of any specified measurement period, regardless of when the financial statements reflecting such breach are delivered to Agent.  (a) For

 

154

 

purposes of determining pro forma compliance with any financial covenant  as of any date prior to the first date on which such financial covenant is to be tested hereunder, the level of any such financial covenant shall be deemed to be the covenant level for such first test date and (b) if the availability of Indebtedness under this Agreement, or other incurrence of Indebtedness in compliance with this Agreement, is subject to a maximum leverage ratio, then, solely for the purposes of determining such availability or compliance, the cash proceeds of such Indebtedness, shall not be included in the calculation, if applicable, of cash or cash equivalents included in the determination of such leverage ratio.

 

11.4        Payments.

 

Agent may set up standards and procedures to determine or redetermine the equivalent in Dollars of any amount expressed in any currency other than Dollars and otherwise may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination made by any Credit Party or any L/C Issuer.  Any such determination or redetermination by Agent shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  No determination or redetermination by any Secured Party or any Credit Party and no other currency conversion shall change or release any obligation of any Credit Party or of any Secured Party (other than Agent and its Related Persons) under any Loan Document, each of which agrees to pay separately for any shortfall remaining after any conversion and payment of the amount as converted.  Agent may round up or down, and may set up appropriate mechanisms to round up or down, any amount hereunder to nearest higher or lower amounts and may determine reasonable de minimis payment thresholds.

ARTICLE II

 

GUARANTY

 

2.1                               Guaranty.  To induce the Lenders to make the Loans, the L/C Issuers to Issue Letters of Credit and each other Secured Party to make credit available to or for the benefit of one or more Grantors, each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, the full and punctual payment and performance when due, whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance with any Loan Document, of all the Obligations of the Borrower whether existing on the date hereof or hereinafter incurred or created (the “Guaranteed Obligations”).  This Guaranty by each Guarantor hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection.

 

2.2                               Limitation of Guaranty.  Any term or provision of this Guaranty or any other Loan Document to the contrary notwithstanding, the maximum aggregate amount for which any Guarantor shall be liable hereunder shall not exceed the maximum amount for which such Guarantor can be liable without rendering this Guaranty or any other Loan Document, as it relates to such Guarantor, subject to avoidance under applicable Requirements of Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer (including the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act and Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any applicable provisions of comparable Requirements of Law) (collectively, “Fraudulent Transfer Laws”).  Any analysis of the provisions of this Guaranty for purposes of Fraudulent Transfer Laws shall take into account the right of contribution established in Section 2.3 and, for purposes of such analysis, give effect to any discharge of intercompany debt as a result of any payment made under the Guaranty.

 

6

 

2.3                               Contribution.  To the extent that any Guarantor shall be required hereunder to pay any portion of any Guaranteed Obligation exceeding the greater of (a) the amount of the value actually received by such Guarantor and its Subsidiaries from the Loans and other Obligations and (b) the amount such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if such Guarantor had paid the aggregate amount of the Guaranteed Obligations in the same proportion as such Guarantor’s net worth on the date enforcement is sought hereunder bears to the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on such date, then such Guarantor shall be reimbursed by such other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata, based on the respective net worth of such other Guarantors on such date.

 

2.4                               Authorization; Other Agreements.  The Secured Parties are hereby authorized, without notice to or demand upon any Guarantor and without discharging or otherwise affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder and without incurring any liability hereunder, from time to time, to do each of the following:

 

(a)                                 (i) subject to compliance, if applicable, with Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement, modify, amend, supplement or otherwise change, (ii) accelerate or otherwise change the time of payment or (iii) waive or otherwise consent to noncompliance with, any Guaranteed Obligation or any Loan Document;

 

(b)                                 apply to the Guaranteed Obligations any sums by whomever paid or however realized to any Guaranteed Obligation in such order as provided in the Loan Documents;

 

(c)                                  refund at any time any payment received by any Secured Party in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation;

 

(d)                                 (i) sell, exchange, enforce, waive, substitute, liquidate, terminate, release, abandon, fail to perfect, subordinate, accept, substitute, surrender, exchange, affect, impair or otherwise alter or release any Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligation or any other guaranty therefor in any manner, (ii) receive, take and hold additional Collateral to secure any Guaranteed Obligation, (iii) add, release or substitute any one or more other Guarantors, makers or endorsers of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof and (iv) otherwise deal in any manner with the Borrower or any other Guarantor, maker or endorser of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof; and

 

(e)                                  settle, release, compromise, collect or otherwise liquidate the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

2.5                               Guaranty Absolute and Unconditional.  Each Guarantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense, whether arising in connection with or in respect of any of the following or otherwise, and hereby agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty are irrevocable, absolute and unconditional and shall not be discharged as a result of or otherwise affected by any of the following (which may not be pleaded and evidence of which may not be introduced in any proceeding with respect to this Guaranty, in each case except as otherwise agreed in writing by Agent):

 

7

 

(a)                                 the invalidity or unenforceability of any obligation of the Borrower or any other Guarantor under any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (including any amendment, consent or waiver thereto), or any security for, or other guaranty of, any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, or the lack of perfection or continuing perfection or failure of priority of any security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof;

 

(b)                                 the absence of (i) any attempt to collect any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof from the Borrower or any other Guarantor or other action to enforce the same or (ii) any action to enforce any Loan Document or any Lien thereunder;

 

(c)                                  the failure by any Person to take any steps to perfect and maintain any Lien on, or to preserve any rights with respect to, any Collateral;

 

(d)                                 any workout, insolvency, bankruptcy proceeding, reorganization, arrangement, liquidation or dissolution by or against the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any of the Borrower’s other Subsidiaries or any procedure, agreement, order, stipulation, election, action or omission thereunder, including any discharge or disallowance of, or bar or stay against collecting, any Guaranteed Obligation (or any interest thereon) in or as a result of any such proceeding;

 

(e)                                  any foreclosure, whether or not through judicial sale, and any other sale or other disposition of any Collateral or any election following the occurrence of an Event of Default by any Secured Party to proceed separately against any Collateral in accordance with such Secured Party’s rights under any applicable Requirement of Law; or

 

(f)                                   any other defense, setoff, counterclaim or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Subsidiary of the Borrower, in each case other than the payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.

 

2.6                               Waivers.  Each Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives and agrees not to assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim based on diligence, promptness, presentment, requirements for any demand or notice hereunder including any of the following:  (a) any demand for payment or performance and protest and notice of protest; (b) any notice of acceptance; (c) any presentment, demand, protest or further notice or other requirements of any kind with respect to any Guaranteed Obligation (including any accrued but unpaid interest thereon) becoming immediately due and payable; and (d) any other notice in respect of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, and any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of the Borrower or any other Guarantor.  Each Guarantor further unconditionally and irrevocably agrees not to (x) enforce or otherwise exercise any right of subrogation or any right of reimbursement or contribution or similar right against the Borrower or any other Guarantor by reason of any Loan Document or any payment made thereunder or (y) assert any claim, defense, setoff or counterclaim it may have against any other Credit

 

8

 

Party or set off any of its obligations to such other Credit Party against obligations of such Credit Party to such Guarantor.  No obligation of any Guarantor hereunder shall be discharged other than by complete performance.

 

2.7                               Reliance.  Each Guarantor hereby assumes responsibility for keeping itself informed of the financial condition of the Borrower, each other Guarantor and any other guarantor, maker or endorser of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of any Guaranteed Obligation or any part thereof that diligent inquiry would reveal, and each Guarantor hereby agrees that no Secured Party shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding such condition or any such circumstances.

(b)                                 Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby reaffirms and continues in effect the respective grants of security interests in the Original Guaranty and Security Agreement, the A&R Guaranty and Security Agreement, and all UCC financing statements and other documents of assignment, perfection and priority executed and delivered pursuant to the Original Guaranty and Security Agreement and the A&R Guaranty and Security Agreement.

 

ARTICLE IV

 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

To induce the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and Agent to enter into the Loan Documents, each Grantor hereby represents and warrants each of the following to Agent, the Lenders, the L/C Issuers and the other Secured Parties.

 

4.1                               Title; No Other Liens.  Except for the Lien granted to Agent pursuant to this Agreement and other Permitted Liens (except for those Permitted Liens not permitted to exist on any Collateral) under any Loan Document (including Section 4.2), such Grantor owns or holds title to, as applicable, each item of the Collateral free and clear of any and all Liens or claims of others.  Such Grantor (a) is the record and beneficial owner of the Collateral pledged by it hereunder constituting instruments or certificates and (b) has rights in or the power to transfer each other item of Collateral in which a Lien is granted by it hereunder, free and clear of any other Lien other than Permitted Liens.

 

4.2                               Perfection and Priority.  The security interest granted pursuant to this Agreement constitutes a valid and continuing perfected security interest in favor of Agent

 

10

 

in all Collateral subject, for the following Collateral, to the occurrence of the following:  (i) in the case of all Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing a financing statement under the UCC, the completion of the filings and other actions specified on Schedule 2 (which, in the case of all filings and other documents referred to on such schedule, have been delivered to Agent in completed and duly authorized form), (ii) with respect to any deposit account, the execution of Control Agreements, (iii) in the case of all Copyrights, Trademarks and Patents for which UCC filings are insufficient, all appropriate filings having been made with the United States Copyright Office or the United States Patent and Trademark Office, as applicable, (iv) in the case of letter-of-credit rights that are not supporting obligations of Collateral, the execution of a Contractual Obligation granting control to Agent over such letter-of-credit rights, and (v) in the case of electronic chattel paper, the completion of all steps necessary to grant control to Agent over such electronic chattel paper.  Such security interest shall be prior to all other Liens on the Collateral except for Permitted Liens having priority over Agent’s Lien by operation of law or permitted pursuant to Section 5.1(e), 5.1(g), 5.1(h), 5.1(i), 5.1(k), 5.1(p) or 5.1(q) of the Credit Agreement upon (i) in the case of all Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments and Pledged Investment Property, the delivery thereof to Agent of such Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments and Pledged Investment Property consisting of instruments and certificates, in each case properly endorsed for transfer to Agent or in blank, (ii) in the case of all Pledged Investment Property not in certificated form, the execution of Control Agreements with respect to such investment property and (iii) in the case of all other instruments and tangible chattel paper that are not Pledged Certificated Stock, Pledged Debt Instruments or Pledged Investment Property, the delivery thereof to Agent of such instruments and tangible chattel paper.  Except as set forth in this Section 4.2, all actions by each Grantor necessary or desirable to protect and perfect the Lien granted hereunder on the Collateral have been duly taken.

 

4.3                               Pledged Collateral.

 

(a)                                 The Pledged Stock pledged by such Grantor hereunder (a) is listed on Schedule 3 and constitutes that percentage of the issued and outstanding equity of all classes of each issuer thereof as set forth on Schedule 3, (b) has been duly authorized, validly issued and is fully paid and nonassessable (other than Pledged Stock in limited liability companies and partnerships) and (c) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the obligor with respect thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

 

(b)                                 As of the Closing Date, all Pledged Collateral (other than Pledged Uncertificated Stock) and all Pledged Investment Property consisting of instruments and certificates has been delivered to Agent in accordance with Section 5.2(a).

 

(c)                                  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall be entitled to exercise all of the rights of the Grantor granting the

 

11

 

security interest in any Pledged Stock, and a transferee or assignee of such Pledged Stock shall become a holder of such Pledged Stock to the same extent as such Grantor and be entitled to participate in the management of the issuer of such Pledged Stock and, upon the transfer of the entire interest of such Grantor, such Grantor shall, by operation of law, cease to be a holder of such Pledged Stock.

 

4.4                               Instruments and Tangible Chattel Paper Formerly Accounts.  No amount payable to such Grantor under or in connection with any account is evidenced by any instrument or tangible chattel paper that has not been delivered to Agent, properly endorsed for transfer, to the extent delivery is required by Section 5.5(a).

 

4.5                               Intellectual Property.  On the Closing Date, all Material Intellectual Property owned by such Grantor is valid, in full force and effect, subsisting, unexpired and enforceable, and no Material Intellectual Property has been abandoned.  No breach or default of any material IP License shall be caused by any of the following, and none of the following shall limit or impair the ownership, use, validity or enforceability of, or any rights of such Grantor in, any Material Intellectual Property:  (i) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any Loan Document or (ii) any holding, decision, judgment or order rendered by any Governmental Authority.  There are no pending (or, to the knowledge of such Grantor, threatened) actions, investigations, suits, proceedings, audits, claims, demands, orders or disputes challenging the ownership, use, validity, enforceability of, or such Grantor’s rights in, any Material Intellectual Property of such Grantor.  To such Grantor’s knowledge, no Person has been or is infringing, misappropriating, diluting, violating or otherwise impairing any Intellectual Property of such Grantor.  Such Grantor, and to such Grantor’s knowledge each other party thereto, is not in material breach or default of any material IP License.

 

4.6                               Commercial Tort Claims.  The only commercial tort claims of any Grantor existing on the date hereof (regardless of whether the amount, defendant or other material facts can be determined and regardless of whether such commercial tort claim has been asserted, threatened or has otherwise been made known to the obligee thereof or whether litigation has been commenced for such claims) are those listed on Schedule 1, which sets forth such information separately for each Grantor.

 

4.7                               Specific Collateral.  None of the Collateral is or is proceeds or products of farm products, as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut.

 

4.8                               Enforcement.  No Permit, notice to or filing with any Governmental Authority or any other Person or any consent from any Person is required for the exercise by Agent of its rights (including voting rights) provided for in this Agreement or the enforcement of remedies in respect of the Collateral pursuant to this Agreement, including the transfer of any Collateral, except as may be required in connection with the disposition of any portion of the Pledged Collateral by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities generally or any approvals that may be required to be obtained from any bailees or landlords to collect the Collateral.

 

12

 

4.9                               Representations and Warranties of the Credit Agreement.  The representations and warranties as to such Grantor and its Subsidiaries made in Article III (Representations and Warranties) of the Credit Agreement are true and correct on each date to the extent required by Sections 2.1, 2.2, or 2.3 of the Credit Agreement.

 

ARTICLE V

 

COVENANTS

 

Each Grantor agrees with Agent to the following, as long as any Obligation or Commitment remains outstanding (other than contingent indemnification Obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted):

 

5.1                               Maintenance of Perfected Security Interest; Further Documentation and Consents.

 

(a)                                 Generally.  Such Grantor shall (i) not use or permit any Collateral to be used unlawfully or in violation of any provision of any Loan Document, any Related Agreement, any Requirement of Law or any policy of insurance covering the Collateral and (ii) not enter into any Contractual Obligation or undertaking restricting the right or ability of such Grantor or Agent to sell, assign, convey or transfer any Collateral if such restriction would reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

 

(b)                                 Such Grantor shall maintain the security interest created by this Agreement as a perfected security interest having at least the priority described in Section 4.2 and shall defend such security interest and such priority against the claims and demands of all Persons.

 

(c)                                  Subject to any applicable limitations in the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall furnish to Agent from time to time statements and schedules further identifying and describing the Collateral and such other documents in connection with the Collateral as Agent may reasonably request, all in reasonable detail and in form and substance satisfactory to Agent.

 

(d)                                 At any time and from time to time, upon the written request of Agent, such Grantor shall, for the purpose of obtaining or preserving the full benefits of this Agreement and of the rights and powers herein granted, (i) promptly and duly execute and deliver, and have recorded, such further documents, including an authorization to file (or, as applicable, the filing) of any financing statement or amendment under the UCC (or other filings under similar Requirements of Law) in effect in any jurisdiction with respect to the security interest created hereby and (ii) take such further action as Agent may reasonably request, including (A) using its commercially reasonable efforts to secure all approvals necessary or appropriate for the assignment to or for the benefit of Agent of any Contractual Obligation, including any IP License, held by such Grantor and to enforce the security interests granted hereunder and (B) executing

 

13

 

and delivering any Control Agreements with respect to deposit accounts and securities accounts, solely to the extent not excluded from such requirement pursuant to Section 4.11 of the Credit Agreement. Grantor shall have no obligations to Agent or Lenders hereunder with respect to property or interests as to which the Agent determines in its reasonable discretion that the costs of obtaining a security interest in any specifically identified assets or category of assets (or perfecting the same) are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Secured Parties of the security afforded thereby.

 

(e)                                  [Intentionally Omitted].

 

(f)                                   To ensure that a Lien and security interest is granted on any of the Excluded Property set forth in clause (ii) of the definition of “Excluded Property”, such Grantor shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any required consents from any Person other than the Borrower and its Affiliates with respect to any permit or license or any Contractual Obligation with such Person entered into by such Grantor that requires such consent as a condition to the creation by such Grantor of a Lien on any right, title or interest in such permit, license or Contractual Obligation or any Stock or Stock Equivalent related thereto.

 

5.2                               Pledged Collateral.

During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent shall have the right, at any time in its discretion and without notice to the Grantor, to (i) transfer to or to register in its name or in the name of its nominees any Pledged Collateral or any Pledged Investment Property and (ii) exchange any certificate or instrument representing or evidencing any Pledged Collateral or any Pledged Investment Property for certificates or instruments of smaller or larger denominations.

 

(c)                                  Cash Distributions with respect to Pledged Collateral.  Except as provided in Article VI and subject to the limitations set forth in the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall be entitled to receive all cash distributions paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral.

 

(d)                                 Voting Rights.  Except as provided in Article VI, such Grantor shall be entitled to exercise all voting, consent and corporate, partnership, limited liability company and similar rights with respect to the Pledged Collateral; provided, however, that no vote shall be cast, consent given or right exercised or other action taken by such Grantor that would impair the Collateral or be inconsistent with or result in any violation of any provision of any Loan Document.

 

14

 

5.3                               Accounts.

 

(a)                                 Such Grantor shall not, other than in the ordinary course of business, (i) grant any extension of the time of payment of any account, (ii) compromise or settle any account for less than the full amount thereof, (iii) release, wholly or partially, any Person liable for the payment of any account, (iv) allow any credit or discount on any account or (v) amend, supplement or modify any account in any manner that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the value thereof in a material manner.

 

(b)                                 Agent shall have the right to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and such Grantor shall furnish all such assistance and information as Agent may reasonably require in connection therewith.  At any time and from time to time, upon Agent’s reasonable request and subject to any applicable limitations in the Credit Agreement, such Grantor shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to Agent to furnish to Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the accounts.

 

5.4                               Commodity Contracts.  Such Grantor shall not have any commodity contract unless subject to a Control Agreement.

(a)                                 If any amount in excess of $500,000 payable under or in connection with any Collateral owned by such Grantor shall be or become evidenced by an instrument or tangible chattel paper other than such instrument delivered in accordance with Section 5.2(a) and in the possession of Agent, such Grantor shall mark all such instruments and tangible chattel paper with the following legend:  “This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the security interest of General Electric Capital Corporation, as Agent” and, at the request of Agent, shall immediately deliver such instrument or tangible chattel paper to Agent, duly indorsed in a manner satisfactory to Agent.

 

(b)                                 Such Grantor shall not grant “control” (within the meaning of such term under Article 9-106 of the UCC) over any investment property to any Person other than Agent.

 

(c)                                  If such Grantor is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit that is (i) not a supporting obligation of any Collateral and (ii) in excess of $500,000, such Grantor shall promptly, and in any event within 2 Business Days after becoming a beneficiary, notify Agent thereof and enter into a Contractual Obligation with Agent, the issuer of such letter of credit or any nominated person with respect to the letter-of-credit rights under such letter of credit.  Such Contractual Obligation shall assign such letter-of-credit rights to Agent and such assignment shall be sufficient to grant control for the purposes of Section 9-107 of the UCC (or any similar section under any equivalent UCC).

5.6                               Intellectual Property.

 

(a)                                 Within 30 days after any change to Schedule 3.16 to the Credit Agreement for such Grantor, such Grantor shall provide Agent notification thereof and the short-form intellectual property agreements and assignments as described in this Section 5.6 and any other documents that Agent reasonably requests with respect thereto.

Such Grantor shall take all commercially reasonable actions that are necessary or reasonably requested by Agent to maintain and pursue each application

 

16

 

(and to obtain the relevant registration or recordation) and to maintain each registration and recordation included in the Material Intellectual Property.

 

(d)                                 Such Grantor shall not knowingly do any act or omit to do any act to infringe, misappropriate, dilute, violate or otherwise impair the Intellectual Property of any other Person.  In the event that any Material Intellectual Property of such Grantor is or has been infringed, misappropriated, violated, diluted or otherwise impaired by a third party, such Grantor shall take such action as it reasonably deems appropriate under the circumstances in response thereto, including promptly bringing suit and recovering all damages therefor.

 

(e)                                  Such Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Agent and suitable for (i) filing in the Applicable IP Office the short-form intellectual property security agreements in the form attached hereto as Annex 3 for all Copyrights, Trademarks, Patents and IP Licenses of such Grantor and (ii) recording with the appropriate Internet domain name registrar, a duly executed form of assignment for all Internet Domain Names of such Grantor (together with appropriate supporting documentation as may be requested by Agent).

Such Grantor agrees that, if it shall acquire any interest in any commercial tort claim in excess of $500,000 (whether from another Person or because such commercial tort claim shall have come into existence), (i) such Grantor shall, immediately upon such acquisition, deliver to Agent, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, a notice of the existence and nature of such commercial tort claim and a supplement to Schedule 1 containing a specific description of such commercial tort claim, (ii) Section 3.1 shall apply to such commercial tort claim and (iii) such Grantor shall execute and deliver to Agent, in each case in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, any document, and take all other action, deemed by Agent to be reasonably necessary or appropriate for Agent to obtain, on behalf of the Lenders, a perfected security interest having at least the priority set forth in Section 4.2 in all such commercial tort claims.  Any supplement to Schedule 1 delivered pursuant to this Section 5.8 shall, after the receipt thereof by Agent, become part of Schedule 1 for all purposes hereunder other than in respect of representations and warranties made prior to the date of such receipt.

ARTICLE VI

 

REMEDIAL PROVISIONS

 

6.1                               Code and Other Remedies.

 

(a)                                 UCC Remedies.  During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any Secured Obligation, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or any other applicable law.

 

(b)                                 Disposition of Collateral.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Agent may, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon any Grantor or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), during the continuance of any Event of Default (personally or through its agents or attorneys), (i) peaceably enter upon the premises where any Collateral is located, without any obligation to pay rent, through self-help, without judicial process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving any Grantor or any other Person notice or opportunity for a hearing on Agent’s claim or action, (ii) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon any Collateral and (iii) sell, assign, convey, transfer, grant option or options to purchase and deliver any Collateral (enter into Contractual Obligations to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of any Secured Party or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.  Agent shall have the right, upon any such public sale or sales and, to the extent permitted by the UCC and other applicable Requirements of Law, upon any such private sale, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption of any Grantor, which right or equity is hereby waived and released.

 

(c)                                  Management of the Collateral.  Each Grantor further agrees, that, during the continuance of any Event of Default, (i) at Agent’s request, it shall assemble the Collateral and make it available to Agent at places that Agent shall reasonably select, whether at such Grantor’s premises or elsewhere, (ii) without limiting the foregoing, Agent also has the right to require that each Grantor store and keep any Collateral pending further action by Agent and, while any such Collateral is so stored or kept, provide such guards and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain such Collateral in good condition, (iii) until Agent is able to sell, assign, convey or transfer any Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use such Collateral to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving the Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Agent and (iv) Agent may, if it so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of any Collateral and to enforce any of Agent’s remedies (for the benefit of the Secured

 

18

 

Parties), with respect to such appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment.  Agent shall not have any obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of any Grantor as against third parties with respect to any Collateral while such Collateral is in the possession of Agent.

 

(d)                                 Application of Proceeds.  Agent shall apply the cash proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Section 6.1, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the rights of Agent and any other Secured Party hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements (consistent with the limitations set forth in Section 9.5 of the Credit Agreement), to the payment in whole or in part of the Secured Obligations, as set forth in the Credit Agreement, and only after such application and after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by any Requirement of Law, need Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor.

 

(e)                                  Direct Obligation.  Neither Agent nor any other Secured Party shall be required to make any demand upon, or pursue or exhaust any right or remedy against, any Grantor, any other Credit Party or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or to pursue or exhaust any right or remedy with respect to any Collateral therefor or any direct or indirect guaranty thereof.  All of the rights and remedies of Agent and any other Secured Party under any Loan Document shall be cumulative, may be exercised individually or concurrently and not exclusive of any other rights or remedies provided by any Requirement of Law.  To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants not to assert against Agent or any other Secured Party, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension, redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety, now or hereafter existing, arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder.  If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of any Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least 10 days before such sale or other disposition.

 

(f)                                   Commercially Reasonable.  To the extent that applicable Requirements of Law impose duties on Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Agent to do any of the following:

 

(i)                                     fail to incur significant costs, expenses or other Liabilities reasonably deemed as such by Agent to prepare any Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition;

 

(ii)                                  fail to obtain Permits, or other consents, for access to any Collateral to sell or for the collection or sale of any Collateral, or, if not required by other Requirements of Law, fail to obtain Permits or other consents for the collection or disposition of any Collateral;

 

19

 

(iii)                               fail to exercise remedies against account debtors or other Persons obligated on any Collateral or to remove Liens on any Collateral or to remove any adverse claims against any Collateral;

 

(iv)                              advertise dispositions of any Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature, or to contact other Persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring any such Collateral;

 

(v)                                 exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other Persons obligated on any Collateral, directly or through the use of collection agencies or other collection specialists, hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of any Collateral, whether or not such Collateral is of a specialized nature, or, to the extent deemed appropriate by Agent, obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Agent in the collection or disposition of any Collateral, or utilize Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets to dispose of any Collateral;

 

(vi)                              dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets;

 

(vii)                           disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment; or

 

(viii)                        purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of any Collateral or to provide to Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of any Collateral.

 

Each Grantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section 6.1 is to provide a non-exhaustive list of actions or omissions that are commercially reasonable when exercising remedies against any Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Secured Parties shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 6.1.  Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 6.1 shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this Section 6.1.

 

(g)                                  IP Licenses.  For the purpose of enabling Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Section 6.1 (including in order to take possession of, collect, receive, assemble, process, appropriate, remove, realize upon, sell, assign, convey, transfer or grant options to purchase any Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (i) an irrevocable, nonexclusive, worldwide license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to such Grantor), including in such license the right to sublicense, use and practice any Intellectual

 

20

 

Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor and access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all Software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof and (ii) an irrevocable license (without payment of rent or other compensation to such Grantor) to use, operate and occupy all real Property owned, operated, leased, subleased or otherwise occupied by such Grantor.

 

6.2                               Accounts and Payments in Respect of General Intangibles.

 

(a)                                 In addition to, and not in substitution for, any similar requirement in the Credit Agreement, if required by Agent at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, any payment of accounts or payment in respect of general intangibles, when collected by any Grantor, shall be promptly (and, in any event, within 2 Business Days) deposited by such Grantor in the exact form received, duly indorsed by such Grantor to Agent, in a Cash Collateral Account, subject to withdrawal by Agent as provided in Section 6.4.  Until so turned over, such payment shall be held by such Grantor in trust for Agent, segregated from other funds of such Grantor.  Each such deposit of proceeds of accounts and payments in respect of general intangibles shall be accompanied by a report identifying in reasonable detail the nature and source of the payments included in the deposit.

 

(b)                                 At any time during the continuance of an Event of Default:

 

(i)                                     each Grantor shall, upon Agent’s request, deliver to Agent all original and other documents evidencing, and relating to, the Contractual Obligations and transactions that gave rise to any account or any payment in respect of general intangibles, including all original orders, invoices and shipping receipts and notify account debtors that the accounts or general intangibles have been collaterally assigned to Agent and that payments in respect thereof shall be made directly to Agent;

 

(ii)                                  Agent may, without notice, at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default, limit or terminate the authority of a Grantor to collect its accounts or amounts due under general intangibles or any thereof and, in its own name or in the name of others, communicate with account debtors to verify with them to Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any account or amounts due under any general intangible.  In addition, Agent may at any time during the continuance of an Event of Default enforce such Grantor’s rights against such account debtors and obligors of general intangibles; and

 

(iii)                               each Grantor shall take all actions, deliver all documents and provide all information necessary or reasonably requested by Agent to ensure any Internet Domain Name is registered.

 

(c)                                  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, each Grantor shall remain liable under each account and each payment in respect of general intangibles to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed

 

21

 

by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise thereto.  No Secured Party shall have any obligation or liability under any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible by reason of or arising out of any Loan Document or the receipt by any Secured Party of any payment relating thereto, nor shall any Secured Party be obligated in any manner to perform any obligation of any Grantor under or pursuant to any agreement giving rise to an account or a payment in respect of a general intangible, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party thereunder, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts that may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

 

6.3                               Pledged Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Voting Rights.  During the continuance of an Event of Default, upon notice by Agent to the relevant Grantor or Grantors, Agent or its nominee may exercise (A) any voting, consent, corporate and other right pertaining to the Pledged Collateral at any meeting of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, of the relevant issuer or issuers of Pledged Collateral or otherwise and (B) any right of conversion, exchange and subscription and any other right, privilege or option pertaining to the Pledged Collateral as if it were the absolute owner thereof (including the right to exchange at its discretion any Pledged Collateral upon the merger, amalgamation, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other fundamental change in the corporate or equivalent structure of any issuer of Pledged Stock, the right to deposit and deliver any Pledged Collateral with any committee, depositary, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms and conditions as Agent may determine), all without liability except to account for property actually received by it; provided, however, that Agent shall have no duty to any Grantor to exercise any such right, privilege or option and shall not be responsible for any failure to do so or delay in so doing.

 

(b)                                 Proxies.  In order to permit Agent to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that it may be entitled to exercise pursuant hereto and to receive all dividends and other distributions that it may be entitled to receive hereunder, (i) each Grantor shall promptly execute and deliver (or cause to be executed and delivered) to Agent all such proxies, dividend payment orders and other instruments as Agent may from time to time reasonably request and (ii) without limiting the effect of clause (i) above, such Grantor hereby grants to Agent an irrevocable proxy to vote all or any part of the Pledged Collateral and to exercise all other rights, powers, privileges and remedies to which a holder of the Pledged Collateral would be entitled (including giving or withholding written consents of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, calling special meetings of shareholders, partners or members, as the case may be, and voting at such meetings), which proxy shall be effective, automatically and without the necessity of any action (including any transfer of any Pledged Collateral on the record books of the issuer thereof) by any other person (including the issuer of such Pledged Collateral or any officer or agent thereof) during the continuance of an Event of Default

 

22

 

and which proxy shall only terminate upon the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted).

 

(c)                                  Authorization of Issuers.  Each Grantor hereby expressly and irrevocably authorizes and instructs, without any further instructions from such Grantor, each issuer of any Pledged Collateral pledged hereunder by such Grantor to (i) comply with any instruction received by it from Agent in writing that states that an Event of Default is continuing and is otherwise in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and each Grantor agrees that such issuer shall be fully protected from Liabilities to such Grantor in so complying and (ii) unless otherwise expressly permitted hereby or the Credit Agreement, pay any dividend or make any other payment with respect to the Pledged Collateral directly to Agent.

 

6.4                               Proceeds to be Turned over to and Held by Agent.  Unless otherwise expressly provided in the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, all proceeds of any Collateral received by any Grantor hereunder in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by such Grantor in trust for Agent and the other Secured Parties, segregated from other funds of such Grantor, and shall, promptly upon receipt by any Grantor, be turned over to Agent in the exact form received (with any necessary endorsement).  All such proceeds of Collateral and any other proceeds of any Collateral received by Agent in cash or Cash Equivalents shall be held by Agent in a Cash Collateral Account.  All proceeds being held by Agent in a Cash Collateral Account (or by such Grantor in trust for Agent) shall continue to be held as collateral security for the Secured Obligations and shall not constitute payment thereof until applied as provided in the Credit Agreement.

 

6.5                               Sale of Pledged Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Each Grantor recognizes that Agent may be unable to effect a public sale of any Pledged Collateral by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act and applicable state or foreign securities laws or otherwise or may determine that a public sale is impracticable, not desirable or not commercially reasonable and, accordingly, may resort to one or more private sales thereof to a restricted group of purchasers that shall be obliged to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof.  Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable than if such sale were a public sale and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner.  Agent shall be under no obligation to delay a sale of any Pledged Collateral for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws even if such issuer would agree to do so.

 

(b)                                 Each Grantor agrees to use its best efforts to do or cause to be done all such other acts as may be necessary to make such sale or sales of any portion of the

 

23

 

Pledged Collateral pursuant to  Section 6.1 and this Section 6.5 valid and binding and in compliance with all applicable Requirements of Law.  Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any covenant contained herein will cause irreparable injury to Agent and other Secured Parties, that Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained herein shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defense against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred under the Credit Agreement.  Each Grantor waives any and all rights of contribution or subrogation upon the sale or disposition of all or any portion of the Pledged Collateral by Agent.

 

6.6                               Deficiency.  Each Grantor shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or other disposition of any Collateral are insufficient to pay the Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorney employed by Agent or any other Secured Party to collect such deficiency.

AGENT

 

7.1                               Agent’s Appointment as Attorney-in-Fact.

 

(a)                                 Each Grantor hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints Agent and any Related Person thereof, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of the Loan Documents, to take any appropriate action and to execute any document or instrument that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of the Loan Documents, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby gives Agent and its Related Persons the power and right, on behalf of such Grantor, without notice to or assent by such Grantor, to do any of the following when an Event of Default shall be continuing:

 

(i)                                     in the name of such Grantor, in its own name or otherwise, take possession of and indorse and collect any check, draft, note, acceptance or other instrument for the payment of moneys due under any account or general intangible or with respect to any other Collateral and file any claim or take any other action or proceeding in any court of law or equity or otherwise deemed appropriate by Agent for the purpose of collecting any such moneys due under any account or general intangible or with respect to any other Collateral whenever payable;

 

(ii)                                  in the case of any Intellectual Property owned by or licensed to the Grantors, execute, deliver and have recorded any document that Agent may request to evidence, effect, publicize or record Agent’s security interest in such Intellectual Property and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Grantor relating thereto or represented thereby;

 

24

 

(iii)                               pay or discharge taxes and Liens levied or placed on or threatened against any Collateral, effect any repair or pay any insurance called for by the terms of the Credit Agreement (including all or any part of the premiums therefor and the costs thereof);

 

(iv)                              execute, in connection with any sale provided for in Section 6.1 or 6.5, any document to effect or otherwise necessary or appropriate in relation to evidence the sale of any Collateral; or

 

(v)                                 (A) direct any party liable for any payment under any Collateral to make payment of any moneys due or to become due thereunder directly to Agent or as Agent shall direct, (B) ask or demand for, and collect and receive payment of and receipt for, any moneys, claims and other amounts due or to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral, (C) sign and indorse any invoice, freight or express bill, bill of lading, storage or warehouse receipt, draft against debtors, assignment, verification, notice and other document in connection with any Collateral, (D) commence and prosecute any suit, action or proceeding at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect any Collateral and to enforce any other right in respect of any Collateral, (E) defend any actions, suits, proceedings, audits, claims, demands, orders or disputes brought against such Grantor with respect to any Collateral, (F) settle, compromise or adjust any such actions, suits, proceedings, audits, claims, demands, orders or disputes and, in connection therewith, give such discharges or releases as Agent may deem appropriate, (G) assign any Intellectual Property owned by the Grantors or any IP Licenses of the Grantors throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as Agent shall in its sole discretion determine, including the execution and filing of any document necessary to effectuate or record such assignment unless such assignment would invalidate the right to such Intellectual Property and (H) generally, sell, assign, convey, transfer or grant a Lien on, make any Contractual Obligation with respect to and otherwise deal with, any Collateral as fully and completely as though Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes and do, at Agent’s option, at any time or from time to time, all acts and things that Agent deems necessary to protect, preserve or realize upon any Collateral and the Secured Parties’ security interests therein and to effect the intent of the Loan Documents, all as fully and effectively as such Grantor might do.

 

(vi)                              If any Grantor fails to perform or comply with any Contractual Obligation contained herein, Agent, at its option, but without any obligation so to do, may perform or comply, or otherwise cause performance or compliance, with such Contractual Obligation.

 

(b)                                 The expenses of Agent incurred in connection with actions undertaken as provided in this Section 7.1, together with interest thereon at a rate set forth in Section 1.3(c) of the Credit Agreement, from the date of payment by Agent to the date reimbursed by the relevant Grantor, shall be payable by such Grantor to Agent on demand, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

 

25

 

(c)                                  Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that said attorneys shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue of this Section 7.1.  All powers, authorizations and agencies contained in this Agreement are coupled with an interest and are irrevocable until this Agreement is terminated and the security interests created hereby are released.

 

7.2                               Authorization to File Financing Statements.  Each Grantor authorizes Agent and its Related Persons, at any time and from time to time, to file or record financing statements, amendments thereto, and other filing or recording documents or instruments with respect to any Collateral in such form and in such offices as Agent reasonably determines appropriate to perfect the security interests of Agent under this Agreement, and such financing statements and amendments may described the Collateral covered thereby as “all assets of the debtor” or words of similar import.  A photographic or other reproduction of this Agreement shall be sufficient as a financing statement or other filing or recording document or instrument for filing or recording in any jurisdiction.  Such Grantor also hereby ratifies its authorization for Agent to have filed any initial financing statement or amendment thereto under the UCC (or other similar laws) in effect in any jurisdiction if filed prior to the date hereof.

 

7.3                               Authority of Agent.  Each Grantor acknowledges that the rights and responsibilities of Agent under this Agreement with respect to any action taken by Agent or the exercise or non-exercise by Agent of any option, voting right, request, judgment or other right or remedy provided for herein or resulting or arising out of this Agreement shall, as between Agent and the other Secured Parties, be governed by the Credit Agreement and by such other agreements with respect thereto as may exist from time to time among them, but, as between Agent and the Grantors, Agent shall be conclusively presumed to be acting as agent for the Secured Parties with full and valid authority so to act or refrain from acting, and no Grantor shall be under any obligation or entitlement to make any inquiry respecting such authority.

 

7.4                               Duty; Obligations and Liabilities.

 

(a)                                 Duty of Agent.  Agent’s sole duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession shall be to deal with it in the same manner as Agent deals with similar property for its own account.  The powers conferred on Agent hereunder are solely to protect Agent’s interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon Agent to exercise any such powers.  Agent shall be accountable only for amounts that it receives as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither it nor any of its Related Persons shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.  In addition, Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehousemen, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee or other bailee if such Person has been selected by Agent in good faith.

 

26

 

(b)                                 Obligations and Liabilities with respect to Collateral.  No Secured Party and no Related Person thereof shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Grantor or any other Person or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to any Collateral.  The powers conferred on Agent hereunder shall not impose any duty upon any other Secured Party to exercise any such powers.  The other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts that they actually receive as a result of the exercise of such powers, and neither they nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

MISCELLANEOUS

 

8.1                               Reinstatement.  Each Grantor agrees that, if any payment made by any Credit Party or other Person and applied to the Secured Obligations is at any time annulled, avoided, set aside, rescinded, invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or otherwise required to be refunded or repaid, or the proceeds of any Collateral are required to be returned by any Secured Party to such Credit Party, its estate, trustee, receiver or any other party, including any Grantor, under any bankruptcy law, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, then, to the extent of such payment or repayment, any Lien or other Collateral securing such liability shall be and remain in full force and effect, as fully as if such payment had never been made.  If, prior to any of the foregoing, (a) any Lien or other Collateral securing such Grantor’s liability hereunder shall have been released or terminated by virtue of the foregoing or (b) any provision of the Guaranty hereunder shall have been terminated, cancelled or surrendered, such Lien, other Collateral or provision shall be reinstated in full force and effect and such prior release, termination, cancellation or surrender shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of any such Grantor in respect of any Lien or other Collateral securing such obligation or the amount of such payment.

 

8.2                               Release of Collateral.

 

(a)                                 At the time provided in Section 8.10(b)(iii) of the Credit Agreement, the Collateral shall be released from the Lien created hereby and this Agreement and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of Agent and each Grantor hereunder shall terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any party, and all rights to the Collateral shall revert to the Grantors.  Each Grantor is hereby authorized to file UCC amendments at such time evidencing the termination of the Liens so released.  At the request of any Grantor following any such termination, Agent shall deliver to such Grantor any Collateral of such Grantor held by Agent hereunder and execute and deliver to such

 

27

 

Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination.

 

(b)                                 If Agent shall be directed or permitted pursuant to Section 8.10(b) of the Credit Agreement to release any Lien or any Collateral, such Collateral shall be released from the Lien created hereby to the extent provided under, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, Section 8.10(b).  In connection therewith, Agent, at the request of any Grantor, shall execute and deliver to such Grantor such documents as such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

 

(c)                                  At the time provided in Section 8.10(b) of the Credit Agreement and at the request of the Borrower, a Grantor shall be released from its obligations hereunder in the event that all the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Grantor shall be sold to any Person that is not an Affiliate of the Borrower or the Subsidiaries of the Borrower in a transaction permitted by the Loan Documents.

 

8.3                               Independent Obligations.   The obligations of each Grantor hereunder are independent of and separate from the Secured Obligations and the Guaranteed Obligations.  If any Secured Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation is not paid when due, or upon any Event of Default, Agent may, at its sole election, proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Grantor and any Collateral to collect and recover the full amount of any Secured Obligation or Guaranteed Obligation then due, without first proceeding against any other Grantor, any other Credit Party or any other Collateral and without first joining any other Grantor or any other Credit Party in any proceeding.

 

8.4                               No Waiver by Course of Conduct.  No Secured Party shall by any act (except by a written instrument pursuant to Section 8.5), delay, indulgence, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any right or remedy hereunder or to have acquiesced in any Default or Event of Default.  No failure to exercise, nor any delay in exercising, on the part of any Secured Party, any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege.  A waiver by any Secured Party of any right or remedy hereunder on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy that such Secured Party would otherwise have on any future occasion.

 

8.5                               Amendments in Writing.  None of the terms or provisions of this Agreement may be waived, amended, supplemented or otherwise modified except in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that annexes to this Agreement may be supplemented (but no existing provisions may be modified and no Collateral may be released) through Pledge Amendments and Joinder Agreements, in substantially the form of Annex 1 and Annex 2, respectively, in each case duly executed by Agent and each Grantor directly affected thereby.

 

8.6                               Additional Grantors; Additional Pledged Collateral.

 

(a)                                 Joinder Agreements.  If, at the option of the Borrower or as required pursuant to Section 4.13 of the Credit

 

28

 

Agreement, the Borrower shall cause any Subsidiary that is not a Grantor to become a Grantor hereunder, such Subsidiary shall execute and deliver to Agent a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex 2 and shall thereafter for all purposes be a party hereto and have the same rights, benefits and obligations as a Grantor party hereto on the Closing Date.

 

(b)                                 Pledge Amendments.  To the extent any Pledged Collateral has not been delivered as of the Closing Date or upon obtaining additional Stock or Indebtedness required to be pledged to Agent pursuant to this Agreement, such Grantor shall deliver a pledge amendment duly executed by the Grantor in substantially the form of Annex 1 (each, a “Pledge Amendment”), in respect of any such Stock or Indebtedness pursuant to which such Grantor shall pledge to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, all of such additional Stock or Indebtedness.  Such Grantor authorizes Agent to attach each Pledge Amendment to this Agreement.

 

8.7                               Notices.  All notices, requests and demands to or upon Agent or any Grantor hereunder shall be effected in the manner provided for in Section 9.2 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any such notice, request or demand to or upon any Grantor shall be addressed to the Borrower’s notice address set forth in Section 9.2.
