Exhibit 10.233

 

RESACA EXPLOITATION, INC.

 

NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

 

 

Optionee:               

 

1.             Grant of Stock Option.  As of the Grant
Date (identified in Section 19 below), Resaca
Exploitation, Inc., a Texas corporation (the “Company”) hereby grants a Nonqualified Stock Option (the “Option”) to the Optionee (identified above), an Employee of the Company, to purchase the number of shares of
the Company’s common stock,
[$            ] par
value per share (the “Common Stock”),
identified in Section 19 below (the “Shares”), subject to the terms and conditions of this
agreement (the “Agreement”) and
the Resaca Exploitation, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). 
The Plan is hereby incorporated herein in its entirety by
reference.  The Shares, when issued to
the Optionee upon the exercise of the Option, shall be fully paid and
nonassessable.  The Option is not an “incentive
stock option” as defined in Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986, as amended (the “Code”).

 

2.             Substitution.  This
Agreement is in substitution for the nonqualified stock option granted to the
Optionee by Cano Petroleum, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Cano”), under the Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement (the “Original Agreement”) dated
                      
(the “Original Grant Date”).  This substitution is by reason of the
corporate transaction consummated pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan
of Merger, dated September 29, 2009 (the “Merger
Agreement”), by and among the Company, Resaca Acquisition Sub, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger Sub”), and Cano, under which Cano will merge with and
into the Merger Sub and Cano will be the surviving corporation and subsidiary
of the Company, effective as of the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger
Agreement).  All rights under the
Original Agreement are hereby cancelled upon execution of this Agreement.

 

3.             Definitions.           All capitalized terms used
herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan unless otherwise provided
herein. Section 19 sets forth meanings for certain of the
capitalized terms used in this Agreement.

 

4.             Option Term.  The Option shall commence on
the Grant Date and terminate on the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Original
Grant Date. The period during which the Option is in effect and may be
exercised is referred to herein as the “Option
Period”.

 

5.             Option Price.  The Option Price per Share
is identified in Section 19.

 

6.             Vesting. 
In accordance with the terms of the Original
Agreement, the Option is 100% vested and exercisable as of the Grant Date.  The Shares may be purchased
at any time, in whole or in part, during the Option Period; provided, however,
the Option may only be exercisable to acquire whole Shares.  The right of exercise provided herein shall
be cumulative so that if the Option is not exercised to the maximum extent
permissible after vesting, the vested portion of the Option shall be
exercisable, in whole or in part, at any time during the Option Period.

 

 

7.             Method of Exercise.  The Option is exercisable by delivery of a
written notice to the Secretary of the Company, signed by the Optionee,
specifying the number of Shares to be acquired on, and the effective date of,
such exercise.  The Optionee may withdraw
notice of exercise of this Option, in writing, at any time prior to the close
of business on the business day that immediately precedes the proposed exercise
date.

 

8.             Method of Payment.  Subject to applicable provisions of the Plan,
the Option Price upon exercise of the Option shall be payable to the Company in
full either: (i) in cash or its equivalent; (ii) subject to prior
approval by the Committee in its discretion, by tendering previously acquired
Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) at the
time of exercise equal to the total Option Price; (iii) subject to prior
approval by the Committee in its discretion, by withholding Shares which
otherwise would be acquired on exercise having an aggregate Fair Market Value
at the time of exercise equal to the total Option Price; or (iv) any other
permitted method pursuant to the applicable terms and conditions of the Plan.

 

As soon as practicable after receipt of a
written notification of exercise and full payment, the Company shall deliver to
or on behalf of the Optionee, in the name of the Optionee or other appropriate
recipient, Share certificates or other evidence of ownership for the number of
Shares purchased under the Option.

 

9.             Restrictions on Exercise.  The Option may not be
exercised if the issuance of such Shares or the method of payment of the
consideration for such Shares would constitute a violation of any applicable
federal or state securities or other laws or regulations, or any rules or
regulations of any stock exchange on which the Common Stock is listed.  In addition, the Optionee understands and
agrees that the Option cannot be exercised if the Company determines that such
exercise, at the time of such exercise, will be in violation of the Company’s
insider trading policy.

 

10.          Termination
of Employment. 
Voluntary or involuntary termination of Employment shall affect the
Optionee’s rights under the Option as follows:

 

(a)           Termination for Cause.  If the Optionee’s Employment is terminated
for Cause, then the Option shall expire at 5 p.m. CST on the date of
termination of Employment to the extent not previously exercised by the
Optionee.  For purposes of this
Agreement, “Cause” shall mean (i) the Optionee’s gross negligence in the
performance or intentional nonperformance of any of his duties and
responsibilities (which remains uncured and continues for thirty (30) days
after delivery of written notice); (ii) the Optionee’s dishonesty or fraud
with respect to the business, reputation or affairs of the Company; (iii) the
Optionee’s conviction of a felony or crime involving moral turpitude; (iv) the
Optionee’s debilitating drug or alcohol abuse as determined by a qualified
physician; (v) the Optionee’s material breach of any provisions of an
employment, consulting or service agreement between the Company and the
Optionee; or (vi) the Optionee’s material violation of any written Company
policy (which remains uncured or continues thirty (30) days after delivery of
written notice).

 

(b)           Death or Disability.  If the Optionee’s Employment is terminated
due to death or Disability, then the Option shall expire at 5 p.m. CST on
the one (1) year

anniversary date of the
termination of Employment date to the extent not previously exercised by the Optionee
or, in the case of death, by the personal representative of his estate, the
person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance,
or the beneficiary named pursuant to a valid beneficiary designation, or, in
the case of Disability, by the Optionee or the Optionee’s legal
representative.  In no event may the
Option be exercised by anyone on or after the earlier of (i) the
expiration of the Option Period or (ii) one (1) year after the date
of termination of Employment due to the Optionee’s death or Disability.  For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability”
shall mean the Optionee is qualified for long-term disability benefits under
the Company’s or a subsidiary’s disability plan or insurance policy; or, if no
such plan or policy is then in existence or if the Optionee is not eligible to
participate in such plan or policy, that the Optionee, because of a physical or
mental condition resulting from bodily injury, disease, or mental disorder
which prevents the Optionee from performing his or her duties of employment for
a period of six (6) continuous months, as determined in good faith by the
Company, based upon medical reports or other evidence satisfactory to the
Committee; provided that, in the event this Agreement is subject to Section 409A
of the Code, then, in lieu of the foregoing definition and to the extent
necessary to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code,
then the definition of “Disability” for purposes of this Agreement shall be the
definition of “disability” provided for under Section 409A of the Code and
the regulations or other guidance issued thereunder.

 

(c)           Other Involuntary
Termination.  If the
Optionee’s Employment is terminated for any reason other than for Cause, death
or Disability, then the Option shall expire to the extent not previously
exercised at 5 p.m. CST on the date which is ninety (90) days  after such termination date.  In no event may the Option be exercised by
anyone after the earlier of (i) the expiration of the Option Period or (ii) ninety
(90) days after the termination of Employment date even if the Optionee becomes
deceased during such period.

 

11.          Independent
Legal and Tax Advice.  The Optionee acknowledges that the Company
has advised the Optionee to obtain independent legal and tax advice regarding
the grant and exercise of the Option and the disposition of any Shares acquired
thereby.

 

12.          Reorganization
of Company.  The existence of the Option shall not
affect  in any way the right or power of
the Company or its shareholders to make or authorize any or all adjustments,
recapitalizations, reorganizations or other changes in the Company’s capital
structure or its business, or any merger or consolidation of the Company, or
any issue of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference stock ahead of or
affecting the Shares or the rights thereof, or the dissolution or liquidation
of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or
business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character
or otherwise.

 

13.          Adjustment
of Shares. 
In the event of stock dividends, spin-offs of assets or other
extraordinary dividends, stock splits, combinations of shares,
recapitalizations, mergers, consolidations, reorganizations, liquidations,
issuances of rights or warrants and similar transactions or events involving
the Company, appropriate adjustments shall be made to the terms and provisions
of the Option as provided in the Plan.

14.          No Rights
in Shares. 
The Optionee shall have no
rights as a shareholder in respect of the Shares until the Optionee becomes the
record holder of such Shares.

 

15.          Investment
Representation.  The  Optionee will enter into
such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Company may
reasonably request in order to comply with any federal or state securities
law.  Moreover, any stock certificate for
any Shares issued to the Optionee hereunder may contain a legend restricting
their transferability as determined by the Company in its discretion.  The Optionee agrees that the Company shall
not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the issuance
or transfer of Shares hereunder to comply with any law, rule or regulation
that applies to the Shares subject to the Option.

 

16.          No
Guarantee of Employment.  The Option shall not confer upon the Optionee
any right to continued employment with the Company or any affiliate thereof.

 

17.          Withholding
of Taxes.  The Company shall have the right to (a) make
deductions from the number of Shares otherwise deliverable upon exercise of the
Option in an amount sufficient to satisfy withholding of any federal, state or
local taxes required by law, or (b) take such other action as may be
necessary or appropriate to satisfy any such tax withholding obligations.

 

18.          General.

 

(a)           Notices.  All notices under this Agreement shall be
mailed or delivered by hand to the parties at their respective addresses set
forth beneath their signatures below or at such other address as may be
designated in writing by either of the parties to one another, or to their
permitted transferees if applicable. 
Notices shall be effective upon receipt.

 

(b)           Shares Reserved.  The Company shall at all times during the
Option Period reserve and keep available under the Plan such number of Shares
as shall be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of this Option.

 

(c)           Transferability of Option.  The Option is transferable only to the extent
permitted under the Plan at the time of transfer by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution.

 

(d)           Amendment and Termination.  No amendment, modification or termination of
this Agreement shall be made at any time without the written consent of the
Optionee and the Company.

 

(e)           No Guarantee of Tax Consequences.  The Company makes no commitment or guarantee
that any tax treatment will apply or be available to the Optionee or any other
person.  The Optionee has been advised,
and provided with the opportunity, to obtain independent legal and tax advice
regarding the grant and exercise of the Option and the disposition of any
Shares acquired thereby.

 

4

 

(f)            Severability.  In the event that any provision of this
Agreement shall be held illegal, invalid, or unenforceable for any reason, such
provision shall be fully severable, but shall not affect the remaining
provisions of the Agreement, and the Agreement shall be construed and enforced
as if the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision had not been included herein.

 

(g)           Supersedes Prior Agreements.  This Agreement shall supersede and replace
all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, between the Company
and the Optionee regarding the grant of the Options covered hereby, including
without limitation, the Original Agreement.

 

(h)           Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed in

Borrower may borrow, repay, and reborrow from time to time from the Closing

The Commitment Fee shall be payable in arrears on each Payment Date for
the immediately preceding Interest Period commencing on the first such date

multiples of $1,000,000 thereafter or to terminate entirely the Total
Commitment, whereupon the Commitments of the Lenders shall be reduced pro rata

Borrower delivered pursuant to this Section 2.3, the Administrative Agent

made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any
failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or
otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount
owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the
accounts and Records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and Records of
the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and Records
of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.

Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative
Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Credit Loans in addition to

endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its

thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto
at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin with respect to Base Rate Loans as in
effect from time to time.

 

2.6.2.       Each Credit Loan which is a LIBOR Rate
Loan shall bear interest for the period commencing with the Funding Date
thereof and ending on the last day of each Interest Period with respect thereto
at the rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR Rate determined for such
Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans as

(b)           In no event shall

permitted by applicable law, the rate of interest to accrue pursuant to such
Credit Loan shall be limited to the maximum rate permitted by applicable law.

 

2.7          Requests for Credit
Loans.  The Borrower shall give to the
Administrative Agent written notice in the form of Exhibit C hereto
(or telephonic notice confirmed in a writing in the form of Exhibit C
hereto) of each Credit Loan requested hereunder (a “Credit Loan
Request”) by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) no less than three (3) LIBOR
Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date.  Promptly upon receipt of any such notice, the
Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Lenders thereof. The Credit Loan
Request shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower upon delivery thereof
and shall obligate the Borrower to accept the Credit Loan requested from the
Lenders on the related Funding Date.

 

2.8          Continuation of Type
of Credit Loan.  Any Credit
Loan of any Type may, upon the expiration of an Interest Period with respect
thereto, be continued as a Credit Loan of the same Type; provided that no LIBOR
Rate Loan may be continued as such when any Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing, but shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate Loan on the
last day of the first Interest Period relating thereto ending during the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default of which officers of the
Administrative Agent active upon the Borrower’s account have actual
knowledge.  The Administrative Agent
shall notify the Lenders promptly when any such automatic conversion
contemplated by this Section 2.6 is scheduled to occur.

 

2.9          Funds for Credit Loan.

 

2.9.1.       Funding Procedures.  Not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time)
on the proposed Funding Date of any Credit Loan, and provided that each of the
Lenders have been given notice of the Credit Loan Request, each of the Lenders
will make available to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s
Office, in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage of the amount of the requested Credit Loans.  Upon receipt from each Lender of such amount,
and upon receipt of the documents required by Sections 11 and/or 12, as the
case may be,

 

32

 

and
the satisfaction of the other conditions set forth therein, to the extent
applicable, the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower the
aggregate amount of such Credit Loans made available to the Administrative
Agent by the Lenders.  The failure or
refusal of any Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent at the
aforesaid time and place on any Funding Date the amount of its Commitment
Percentage of the requested Credit Loans shall not relieve any other Lender
from its several obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative
Agent the amount of such other Lender’s Commitment Percentage of any requested
Credit Loans.

 

2.9.2.       Advances by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent may, unless notified
to the contrary by any Lender prior to a Funding Date, assume that such Lender
has made available to the Administrative Agent on such Funding Date the amount
of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the Credit Loans to be made on such
Funding Date, and the Administrative Agent may (but it shall not be required
to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount.  If any Lender
makes available to the Administrative Agent such amount on a date after such
Funding Date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an
amount equal to the product of (a) the average computed for the period
referred to in clause (c) below, of the weighted average interest rate
paid by the Administrative Agent for federal funds acquired by the Administrative
Agent during each day included in such period, times (b) the amount of
such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Credit Loans, times (c) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and
including such Funding Date to the date on which the amount of such Lender’s
Commitment Percentage of such Credit Loans shall become immediately available
to the Administrative Agent, and the denominator of which is 360.  A statement of the Administrative Agent
submitted to such Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph
shall be prima facie evidence of the amount due and owing to the Administrative
Agent by such Lender.  If the amount of
such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such Credit Loans is not made available
to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days
following such Funding Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
recover such amount from the Borrower on demand, with interest thereon at the
rate per annum applicable to the Credit Loans made on such Funding Date.

 

2.10        Extension of Scheduled Termination Date.  
(a)  Requests for Extension. 
The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall
promptly notify all of the Lenders) and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider not
earlier than 45 days and not later than 35 days prior to the Scheduled
Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing
Scheduled Termination Date”), request that each Lender extend such
Lender’s Scheduled Termination Date in respect of this revolving credit
facility for an additional 364 days from the Existing Scheduled Termination
Date.

 

(b)           Lender Elections to Extend.  Each Lender, acting in its sole and
individual discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not
earlier than 30 days prior to the Existing Scheduled Termination Date and not
later than the date (the “Notice Date”)
that is 20 days prior to the Existing Scheduled Termination Date, advise the
Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension (and
each

 

33

 

Lender that determines not to so extend its
Scheduled Termination Date (a “Non-Extending
Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact promptly
after such determination (but in any event no later than the Notice Date) and
any Lender that does not so advise the Administrative Agent on or before the
Notice Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender.  The election of any Lender to agree to such
extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.

 

(c)           Notification by Administrative Agent.  The Administrative Agent shall notify the
Borrower and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider of each Lender’s determination
under this Section 2.10 no later than the date 15 days prior to the
Existing Scheduled Termination Date (or, if such date is not a Business Day, on
the next preceding Business Day).

 

(d)           Additional Commitment Lenders.  The Borrower shall have the right to replace
each Non-Extending Lender with, and add as “Lenders” under this Credit
Agreement in place thereof, one or more Eligible Assignees (each, an “Additional Commitment Lender”) as provided
in Section 15.2; provided that each of such Additional Commitment
Lenders shall enter into an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which such
Additional Commitment Lender shall, effective as of the Existing Scheduled
Termination Date, undertake a Commitment (and, if any such Additional
Commitment Lender is already a Lender, its Commitment shall be in addition to
any other Commitment of such Lender hereunder on such date).

 

(e)           Minimum Extension Requirement.  If (and only if) the total of the Commitments
of the Lenders that have agreed so to extend their Existing Scheduled
Termination Date (each, an “Extending Lender”)
and the additional Commitments of the Additional Commitment Lenders shall be
equal to the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to
the Existing Scheduled Termination Date, then, effective as of the Existing
Scheduled Termination Date, the Scheduled Termination Date in respect of the
revolving credit facility of each Extending Lender and of each Additional
Commitment Lender shall be extended to the date falling 364 days after the
Existing Scheduled Termination Date (except that, if such date is not a
Business Day, such Scheduled Termination Date as so extended shall be the next
preceding Business Day) and each Additional Commitment Lender shall thereupon
become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Credit Agreement.

 

(f)            Conditions to Effectiveness of Extensions.  As a condition precedent to such extension,
the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and each Interest Rate
Hedge Provider a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Existing Scheduled
Termination Date (in sufficient copies for each Extending Lender and each
Additional Commitment Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower (i) certifying
and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting
to such extension and (ii) certifying that, before and after giving effect
to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties contained in Article 7
and the other Loan Documents are true and correct on and as of the Existing
Scheduled Termination Date, except to the extent that such representations and
warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true
and correct as of such earlier date, and except that for purposes

 

34

 

of this Section 2.10, the
representations and warranties contained in Section 7.4.2 shall be deemed
to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Section 8.4,
and (B) no Default, Event of Default or Early Amortization Event
exists.  In addition, on the Existing
Scheduled Termination Date of each Non-Extending Lender, the Borrower shall
prepay the Credit Loans outstanding on such date to such Non-Extending Lender
and pay any additional amounts owing, including any amounts owing under any
Interest Rate Hedge Agreement.

 

3.             REPAYMENT OF THE
CREDIT LOANS.

 

3.1          Repayment of Credit
Loans.  On each Payment Date occurring
on or after the Conversion Date (other than the Maturity Date), the unpaid
principal balance of all Credit Loans outstanding shall be payable on each
Payment Date in an amount equal to the Scheduled Principal Payment Amount.  The Aggregate Note Principal Balance, and all
accrued interest and other amounts owing on, or with respect to, the Credit
Loans shall be payable in full on the earlier to occur of (a) the Maturity
Date and (b) the date on which the Credit Loans and the other Obligations
have been declared due and payable in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.1
hereof.

 

3.2          Mandatory Prepayments
of Credit Loans.  If the
Borrowing Base Report delivered on any Determination Date indicates that a
Borrowing Base Deficiency exists, then the Borrower shall pay on the
immediately succeeding Payment Date the amount of such Borrowing Base
Deficiency in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof.  Each prepayment of Credit Loans shall be
allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as practicable, to the
respective principal amount of each Lender’s unpaid Credit Loan, with
adjustments to the extent practicable to equalize any prior payments or
repayments not exactly in proportion.  In
connection with any prepayment under this Section 3.2, the Borrower will,
simultaneously with such prepayment, pay to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider
all amounts, including any termination payments, then owing under their
respective Interest Rate Hedge Agreements as a consequence of such prepayment.

 

3.3          Optional Repayments
of Credit Loans.  The
Borrower shall have the right, at its election, to repay the outstanding amount
of the Credit Loans, in whole or in part, at any time without penalty or
premium, provided that any full or partial prepayment of the outstanding amount
of any LIBOR Rate Loans pursuant to this Section 3.3 may be made only on a
Payment Date unless accompanied by all amounts owing pursuant to Section 5.8
hereof.  The Borrower shall give the
Administrative Agent and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider, no later than 11:00 a.m.
(New York time) at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice of
any proposed prepayment pursuant to this Section 3.3 of Base Rate Loans,
and three (3) LIBOR Business Days notice of any proposed prepayment
pursuant to this Section 3.3 of LIBOR Rate Loans, in each case specifying
the proposed date of prepayment of Credit Loans and the principal amount to be
prepaid.  Each such partial prepayment of
the Credit Loans shall be in an integral multiple of $500,000, and shall be
applied, in the absence of instruction by the Borrower, first to the principal
balance of all unpaid Base Rate Loans and then to the principal balance of all
unpaid LIBOR Rate Loans.  Each partial
prepayment shall be allocated among the Lenders, in proportion, as nearly as
practicable, to the respective unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s
aggregate unpaid Credit Loans, with adjustments to the extent practicable to
equalize any prior

 

35

 

repayments not exactly in
proportion.  In connection with any
prepayment under this Section 3.3, the Borrower will, simultaneously with
such prepayment, pay to each Interest Rate Hedge Provider all amounts,
including any termination payments, then owing under their respective Interest
Rate Hedge Agreements as a consequence of such prepayment.

 

3.4          Application of
Prepayments.  Any
prepayment of the principal of a Credit Loan shall include all interest accrued
to the date of prepayment.  Each such
prepayment shall be applied to reduce all remaining Scheduled Principal Payment
Amounts (including the Scheduled Principal Payment Amount due on the Maturity
Date) on a pro rata basis and to reduce the unpaid
principal balances of the Credit Loans of each Lender in accordance with such
Lender’s Commitment Percentage of the aggregate prepayment amount.  Each prepayment of principal received by a
Lender pursuant to this Section 3 shall be applied, in the absence of
contrary instruction by the Borrower, first to the principal of Base Rate
Loans, and then to the principal of LIBOR Rate Loans.  The Administrative Agent will promptly notify
each Lender of its receipt of any notice of prepayment, and of the amount of such
Lender’s prepayment.

 

4.             TRUST ACCOUNT.

 

4.1          Trust Account.

 

(a)           On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall
establish and maintain the Trust Account. 
The Trust Account shall be established in the name of the Borrower, for
the benefit of the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Secured Parties),
with a bank or trust company acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the
Required Lenders. The Trust Account shall at all times be under the “control”
(as defined in the UCC) of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the
Secured Parties

 

(b)           The Borrower shall not establish any additional bank
accounts (other than the Trust Account and the Restricted Cash Account) without
prior written notice to, and the prior written consent of, the Administrative
Agent, in each instance.

 

(c)           The Borrower shall cause the Manager to deposit into the
Trust Account, at the times and in the amounts required pursuant to the terms
of the Management Agreement and the Intercreditor Agreement, all Gross Revenue
relating to the Containers in the Borrower Fleet.  The Borrower shall cause any Gross Revenue
and other amounts related to the Collateral not deposited into a Manager
Collection Account (as defined in the Management Agreement), including any such
amounts received by the Manager, the Seller or any of their Affiliates, to be
deposited into the Trust Account within three (3) Business Days after
receipt of such payment.  So long as no
Early Amortization Event or Manager Default shall have occurred and then be
continuing, the Manager shall be permitted to request the Administrative Agent
to withdraw (to the extent not previously withheld) from amounts on deposit in
the Trust Account, or otherwise net out, from amounts otherwise required to be
deposited to the Trust Account the amount of any Management Fee or Management
Fee Arrearage that would otherwise be due and payable on the immediately
succeeding Payment Date.

 

36

 

(d)           On each Payment Date, the
Borrower, based on the Manager Report, shall distribute funds in an amount
equal to the sum (without duplication) of (i) all of the Collections
received during the related Collection Period, less an amount up to the
Management Fee and Management Fee Arrearage deducted in accordance with the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (ii) all amounts received
by the Borrower during the related Collection Period pursuant to any Interest
Rate Hedge Agreement, (iii) any Warranty Purchase Amounts received by the
Borrower during the related Collection Period, (iv) the amount of all
Manager Advances for use on such Payment Date, (v) any earnings on
Eligible Investments in the Trust Account, to the extent that such earnings
were credited to such account during the related Collection Period, (vi) any
amounts transferred from the Restricted Cash Account, and (vii) other
payments required by the Loan Documents to be deposited therein (the sum of the
amounts described in clauses (i) through (vii), the “Available Distribution Amount”).  Such Available Distribution Amount shall be
distributed to the following Persons in the following order of priority, with
no payment being made toward any item unless and until all prior items have
been fully satisfied:

 

(I)            On each Payment Date on

40

 

the Permitted Payment Date Withdrawals over (B) the
amounts then on deposit in the Trust Account (determined after giving effect to
all other deposits to the Trust Account) available to make such payments.  Such amounts may only be used to pay amounts
specified in the definition of “Permitted Payment Date Withdrawals”.

 

(d)           On each Payment Date, the
Administrative Agent shall, in accordance with the Manager Report, or absent a
Manager Report, pursuant to written instructions from the Required Lenders,

over (B) the Restricted Cash Target Balance.  On the Maturity Date, any remaining funds in
the Restricted Cash Account shall be deposited in the Trust Account and
distributed in accordance with Section 4.1 of this Credit Agreement.

 

5.             CERTAIN
GENERAL PROVISIONS.

 

5.1          Funds
for Payments.

 

5.1.1.       Payments to Administrative Agent.  All payments of
principal, interest, fees and any other amounts due hereunder or under any of
the other Loan Documents shall be made on the due date thereof to the
Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the respective accounts of the Lenders and
the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s Office or at such other
place that the Administrative Agent may from time to time designate, in each
case at or about 11:00 a.m. (New York time or other local time at the
place of payment) and in immediately available funds.

 

5.1.2.       No Offset, etc.  All payments by the Borrower hereunder and
under any of the other Loan Documents shall be made without recoupment, setoff
or counterclaim and free and clear of and without deduction for any taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions, withholdings, restrictions
or conditions of any nature now or hereafter imposed or levied by any jurisdiction
or any political subdivision thereof or taxing or other authority therein with
respect to such payments (but excluding any tax imposed on or measured by the
net income, net profits or net worth of any Lender or the Administrative Agent
and any franchise taxes imposed on any Lender or the Administrative Agent in
each case as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or
Agent and such jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority
thereof or therein (other than solely as a result of entering into this Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or performing any obligations,
receiving payments or enforcing any rights hereunder or thereunder) or as a
result of any Lender or the Administrative Agent not being a U.S. Person)
unless the Borrower is compelled by law to make such deduction or
withholding.  If any such obligation is
imposed upon the Borrower with respect to any amount payable by it hereunder or
under any of the other Loan Documents, the Borrower will pay to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders or (as the case may be)
the Administrative Agent, on the date on which such amount is due and payable
hereunder or under such other Loan Document, such additional amount in Dollars
as shall be necessary to enable the Lenders or the

 

41

 

Administrative
Agent to receive the same net amount which the Lenders or the Administrative
Agent would have received on such due date had no such obligation been imposed
upon the Borrower.  The Borrower will
deliver promptly to the Administrative Agent certificates or other valid
vouchers reasonably available to it for all taxes or other charges deducted
from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder or under
such other Loan Document.

 

Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amount
pursuant to this Section 5.1.2 to any Lender or the Administrative Agent
if such Lender or the Administrative Agent is not a U.S. Person and (a) is
legally eligible but fails to comply with the requirements of Section 5.1.3
or (b) is not legally eligible to comply with the requirements of Section 5.1.3.

 

If the Borrower is required
to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender pursuant to this Section 5.1.2,
then such Lender will, at the request of the Borrower, change the jurisdiction
of its applicable lending office if such change (i) would eliminate or
reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue and (ii) is,
in such Lender’s sole good faith discretion, determined not to be
disadvantageous or cause non-immaterial hardship to such Lender; provided that
any out-of-pocket costs or expenses that are incurred in connection with such change
shall be borne by the Borrower on behalf of such Lender.

 

Each Lender and the
Administrative Agent agrees that it will, to the extent not disadvantageous or
causing non-immaterial hardship, (x) take all reasonable actions
reasonably requested by the Borrower that are consistent with all legal and
regulatory restrictions applicable to it to maintain all exemptions, if any,
available to it from withholding taxes (whether available by treaty or existing
administrative waiver) and (y) otherwise cooperate with the Borrower to
minimize any amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section 5.1.2;
provided, however, that in each case, all out-of-pocket costs of each Lender
and the Administrative Agent relating to such action or cooperation requested
by the Borrower shall be borne by the Borrower.

 

5.1.3.       Tax Forms.  Each Lender (which term, for purposes of this
Section 5.1.3, shall include the Administrative Agent if the
Administrative Agent is acting as a Lender) that is not a U.S. Person agrees to
deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing
Date, or in the case of a Lender that is an assignee or transferee of an
interest under the terms of Section 15 of this Credit Agreement (unless
such Lender was already a Lender hereunder immediately prior to such assignment
or transfer), on or prior to the date of such assignment or transfer to such
Lender, an accurate, complete and executed form or certification as may be
required in order to establish such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a
complete exemption from U.S. withholding tax with respect to payments by the
Borrower hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents and any other
forms or certifications that the Borrower may reasonably request from time to
time.  In addition, each Lender that is
not a U.S. Person agrees that from time to time, when a lapse in time or change
in circumstances renders the previous form or certification obsolete or
inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent a new accurate, complete and

 

42

 

executed
form or certification as may be required in order to confirm or establish such
Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a continued complete exemption from
U.S. withholding tax with respect to payments by the Borrower hereunder and
under any of the other Loan Documents.

 

5.1.4.       Other Taxes.  The Borrower shall pay, and hold the Lenders,
the Administrative Agent, and its Affiliates harmless from and against, any
present or future stamp, documentary, registration, excise, property,
intangibles, transfer, license, sales, use, value added or ad valorem taxes,
charges or similar levies (including any interest and penalties in respect
thereto and associated liabilities, losses, damages and expenses) which arise
from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration
of, or otherwise with respect to, this Credit Agreement or any other Loan
Document or the transactions contemplated thereby (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”) unless arising as a result of
any Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s connection to the taxing
jurisdiction (other than solely as a result of entering into this Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or performing any obligations,
receiving payments or enforcing any rights hereunder or thereunder) or as a
result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender or the
Administrative Agent; provided that the Borrower shall not be liable for any
Other Taxes arising from any Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s failure to
give timely notice thereof.  Such Lender
or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall give prompt notice to
the Borrower of any assertion of Other Taxes so that the Borrower may, at its
option, contest such assertion.  Such
Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees that the
Borrower shall exercise control over any such contest; provided that (i) no
other taxes of such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be,
shall be adversely affected thereby, (ii) the Borrower shall have
acknowledged in writing its liability for such contested Taxes in the event
such contest is not successful; provided that such acknowledgment of liability
will not be binding if the contest is resolved by the written decision of the
taxing authority or a court of competent jurisdiction which states with
reasonable clarity the reasons for sustaining the proposed adjustment and such
reasons would not have resulted in an obligation of the Borrower to indemnify
the Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the absence of
such acknowledgment (but provided, further, that the Lender or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall exercise control over any such
contest (including without limitation the right to withhold consent to any
settlement of the contest) with respect to the response (including the manner
of making the response) to any assertion or proposed assertion by the
applicable taxing authority or the Borrower of any such reasons), (iii) no
Event of Default or payment default or bankruptcy default shall have occurred
and be continuing, and (iv) if such contested Taxes are required to be
paid prior to or as a condition of the initiation of such contest, the Borrower
shall have paid such Taxes.  If and to
the extent the Borrower indemnifies the Administrative Agent or any Lender for
any Other Taxes, the Borrower shall have all rights of subrogation with respect
thereto.  The covenants contained in this
Section 5.1.4 shall survive payment or satisfaction in full of all other
Obligations.

 

5.1.5.       Tax Savings.  If a Lender or the Administrative Agent
becomes aware that it has obtained or received a tax refund or credit or other
tax benefit in respect of any amount for which it has been indemnified by the
Borrower or with respect to

 

43

 

which
the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 5.1.2, then,
within thirty (30) days of becoming so aware, such Lender or the Administrative
Agent (as the case may be) shall, if in its sole discretion it reasonably
determines that it can do so without any non-immaterial adverse consequences
for such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be), reimburse
such amount of tax refund or credit or other tax benefit to the Borrower.  Each Lender and the Administrative Agent
agrees to act in good faith with respect to any such refund, credit and other
tax benefits without discriminating against the Borrower.  If and to the extent the Borrower indemnifies
the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any taxes, the Borrower shall have
all rights of subrogation with respect thereto.

 

5.2          Computations.  All computations of interest on LIBOR Rate Loans
shall be based on a 360-day year and paid for the actual number of days
elapsed.  All computations of interest on
Base Rate Loans and all other fees calculated hereunder shall be based on a
365-day year and paid for the actual number of days elapsed.  Except as otherwise provided in the
definition of the term “Interest Period” with respect to LIBOR Rate Loans,
whenever a payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents becomes
due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and interest shall accrue during
such extension at the rate otherwise applicable pursuant to Section 2.6.  The outstanding amount of the Credit Loans as
reflected on the Records from time to time shall be considered correct and
binding on the Borrower absent manifest error unless within fifteen (15)
Business Days after receipt of any notice from the Administrative Agent or any
of the Lenders of such outstanding amount, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent or such Lender to the contrary.

 

5.3          Inability to Determine LIBOR Rate.  In the event,
prior to the commencement of any Interest Period relating to any LIBOR Rate
Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine or be notified by the Required
Lenders that (a) adequate and reasonable methods do not exist for
ascertaining the LIBOR Rate that would otherwise determine the rate of interest
to be applicable to any LIBOR Rate Loan during any Interest Period or
(b) the LIBOR Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or
maintaining their LIBOR Rate Loans during such period, the Administrative Agent
shall forthwith give notice of such determination (which shall be conclusive
and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders) to the Borrower and the
Lenders.  In such event (i) any
Credit Loan Request for LIBOR Rate Loans shall be automatically withdrawn and
shall, in the case of such a Credit Loan Request, be deemed a request for, a
Base Rate Loan, (ii) each LIBOR Rate Loan will automatically, on the last
day of the then current Interest Period relating thereto, become a Base Rate
Loan, and (iii) the obligations of the Lenders to make LIBOR Rate Loans shall
be suspended, in each case, until the Administrative Agent determines in good
faith that the circumstances giving rise to such suspension no longer exist,
whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower and
the Lenders.

 

5.4          Illegality.  Notwithstanding
any other provisions herein, if any present or future law, regulation, treaty
or directive or the interpretation or application thereof shall make it
unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender shall
forthwith give notice of such circumstances to the Borrower and the other
Lenders and thereupon (a) the commitment of such Lender to make LIBOR Rate
Loans shall forthwith be suspended and (b)

 

44

 

such Lender’s Credit Loans
then outstanding as LIBOR Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically
to Base Rate Loans on the last day of each Interest Period applicable to such
LIBOR Rate Loans or within such earlier period as may be required by law.  The Borrower hereby agrees promptly to pay
the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, upon demand by such
Lender describing in reasonable detail the nature of such increased costs and
showing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail, any additional amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender for any increased costs incurred by such
Lender in making any conversion made necessary by events described above in
this Section 5.4, including any interest or fees payable by such Lender to
lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its LIBOR Rate
Loans hereunder.

 

5.5          Additional
Costs, etc.  If any
present or future applicable law, which expression, as used herein, includes
statutes, rules and regulations thereunder and interpretations thereof by
any competent court or by any governmental or other regulatory body or official
charged with the administration or the interpretation thereof and requests,
directives, instructions and notices at any time or from time to time hereafter
made upon or otherwise issued to any Lender or the Administrative Agent by any
central bank or other fiscal, monetary or other authority (whether or not
having the force of law), shall:

 

(a)           impose or increase or render
applicable (other than to the extent specifically provided for elsewhere in
this Credit Agreement, including without limitation, to the extent considered
in the calculation of the LIBOR Rate) any special deposit, reserve, assessment,
liquidity, capital adequacy or other similar requirements (whether or not
having the force of law) against assets held by, or deposits in or for the
account of, or loans by, or letters of credit issued by, or commitments of an
office of any Lender, or

 

(b)           impose on any Lender or the
Administrative Agent any other conditions or requirements with respect to this
Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the LIBOR Rate Loans, such Lender’s
Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or any class of loans or commitments of
which any of the LIBOR Rate Loans or such Lender’s Commitment to make LIBOR
Rate Loans forms a part, and the result of any of the foregoing is:

 

(c)           to increase the cost to any
Lender of making, funding, issuing, renewing, extending or maintaining any of
the LIBOR Rate Loans or such Lender’s Commitment to make LIBOR Rate Loans, or

 

(d)           to reduce the amount of
principal, interest, or other amount payable to such Lender or the
Administrative Agent hereunder on account of such Lender’s Commitment to make
LIBOR Rate Loans, or any of the LIBOR Rate Loans, or

 

(e)           to require such
Lender or the Administrative Agent to make any payment or to forego any
interest or other sum payable hereunder in respect of any LIBOR Rate Loans, the
amount of which payment or foregone interest or other sum is calculated by
reference to the gross amount of any sum receivable or deemed received by such
Lender or the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder in respect
thereof,

 

45

 

then, and in each such case,
the Borrower will, upon demand made by such Lender or (as the case may be) the
Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time and as often as the
occasion therefor may arise, pay to such Lender or the Administrative Agent
such additional amounts as will be sufficient to compensate such Lender or the
Administrative Agent for such additional cost, reduction, payment or foregone
interest or other sum.

 

5.6          Capital
Adequacy.  If after
the date hereof any Lender or the Administrative Agent determines that (a) the
adoption of or change in any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy,
guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) regarding
capital requirements for such Lenders or such Lender’s holding companies or any
change in the interpretation or application thereof by a Governmental Authority
with appropriate jurisdiction, or (b) compliance by such Lender or the
Administrative Agent or any corporation controlling such Lender or the
Administrative Agent with any law, governmental rule, regulation, policy,
guideline or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such
entity regarding capital adequacy, has the effect of reducing the return on
such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s commitment with respect to any
Credit Loans to a level below that which such Lender or the Administrative
Agent could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking
into consideration such Lender’s or the Administrative Agent’s then existing
policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming full utilization of such
entity’s capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender or (as the case may be)
the Administrative Agent to be material, then such Lender or the Administrative
Agent may notify the Borrower of such fact. 
To the extent that the amount of such reduction in the return on capital
is not reflected in the Base Rate or LIBOR Rate, the Borrower agrees to pay the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender entitled thereto for the
amount of such reduction in the return on capital as and when such reduction is
determined upon presentation by such Lender or (as the case may be) the
Administrative Agent of a certificate in accordance with Section 5.7.  Neither the Administrative Agent nor any
Lender shall be entitled to assert any claim under this Section 5.6 in
respect of taxes.  Each of the Lenders
and the Administrative Agent agrees that, in the event any of the circumstances
of the type described in this Section 5.6, it shall allocate such cost
increases among its customers in good faith and on a non-discriminatory basis.

 

5.7          Certificate.  A certificate setting forth in reasonable
detail a description of any additional amounts payable pursuant to Sections 5.5
or 5.6 and the calculations necessary to establish such amounts which are due
and a brief explanation sufficient to evidence the affected Lender’s or the
Administrative Agent’s entitlement thereto, submitted by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower, shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error, that such amounts are due and owing. 
In determining such additional amounts, each Lender or the
Administrative Agent will act reasonably and in good faith and will use
allocation and attribution methods which are reasonable.

 

5.8          Indemnity.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender
and to hold each Lender harmless from and against any loss, cost or expense
(excluding loss of anticipated profits) that such Lender may sustain or incur
as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in payment of the
principal amount of or any interest on any LIBOR Rate Loans as and when due and
payable, including any such loss or expense arising from interest or fees
payable by such Lender to banks of funds obtained by it in order to maintain
the respective LIBOR Rate Loan or Loans which are the subject of such default, (b) default
by the Borrower in making a borrowing

 

46

 

or conversion after the
Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Credit Loan Request in
accordance with Section 2.5 or (c) the making of any payment of a
LIBOR Rate Loan or the making of any conversion of any such Credit Loan to a
Base Rate Loan on a day that is not the last day of the applicable Interest
Period with respect thereto, including interest or fees payable by such Lender
to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to maintain any such Credit Loans.

 

5.9          Limitation
on Increased Costs. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Sections 5.4, 5.5
or 5.6, unless a Lender or the Administrative Agent gives notice to the Borrower
that it is obligated to pay an amount under any such Section within ninety
(90) days after the later of (a) the date such Lender or the
Administrative Agent (as the case may be) actually incurs the respective
increased costs, loss, expense or liability, or reduction in return on capital,
and (b) the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may
be) has actual knowledge of its incurrence of the respective increased costs,
loss, expense or liability, or reduction in the return on capital, then such
Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) shall only be entitled
to be compensated for such amount by the Borrower pursuant to said Sections
5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 (as the case may be) to the extent the costs, loss, expense or
liability, or reduction in return on capital are incurred or suffered on or
after the date which occurs ninety (90) days prior to such Lender or the
Administrative Agent giving notice to the Borrower that it is obligated to pay
the respective amounts pursuant to said Sections 5.4, 5.5 or 5.6 (as the case
may be).

 

5.10        Interest
After Default.  Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of any Event of Default, and upon notice from the Administrative
Agent to the Borrower, amounts due and payable under any of the Loan Documents
shall bear interest (compounded monthly and payable on demand in respect of
overdue amounts) at a rate per annum which is equal to two percent (2%) above
the rate of interest otherwise applicable to such amounts (or if no rate of
interest is otherwise applicable, two percent (2%) above the Base Rate) until
such amount is paid in full or (as the case may be) such Event of Default has
been cured or waived in writing in accordance with the terms of this Credit
Agreement.

 

6.             COLLATERAL
SECURITY.

 

6.1          Security
of Borrower.  The
Obligations shall be secured by a perfected first priority security interest
(subject only to Permitted Liens) in favor of the Administrative Agent, on
behalf of the Secured Parties, in all of the assets of the Borrower which are
the subject of the Security Documents, whether now owned or hereafter acquired,
pursuant to the terms of the Security Documents.

 

7.             REPRESENTATIONS
AND WARRANTIES.

 

The Borrower represents and
warrants to the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent as follows (it
being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its

only as of such specified date):

 

47

 

7.1          Corporate

validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Delaware, (b) has
all requisite power to own its property and conduct its business as now conducted
and as presently contemplated, and (c) is in good standing (to the extent
the concept applies to such entity) and is duly authorized to do business in
each jurisdiction where such qualification is necessary except where a failure
to be so qualified would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect.

 

7.1.2.       Authorization.  The execution, delivery and performance of
this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is or
is to become a party and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (a) are
within the company authority of the Borrower, (b) have been duly
authorized by all necessary company proceedings, (c) do not and will not
conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of any provision of law,
statute, rule or regulation to which the Borrower is subject or any
judgment, order, writ, injunction, license or permit applicable to the Borrower
and (d) do not conflict with any provision of the Governing Documents of,
or any material agreement or other instrument binding upon, the Borrower.

 

7.1.3.       Enforceability.  The execution and delivery of this Credit
Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which the Borrower is or is to become
a party will result in valid and legally binding obligations of such Person
enforceable against it in accordance with the respective terms and provisions
hereof and thereof, except as enforceability is limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting
generally the enforcement of creditors’ rights and except to the extent that
availability of the remedy of specific performance or injunctive relief is
subject to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may
be brought.

 

7.2          Governmental
Approvals.  The execution,
delivery and performance by the Borrower of this Credit Agreement and the other
Loan Documents to which the Borrower is or is to become a party and the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby do not require the approval or
consent of, or filing with, any governmental agency or authority other than (i) those
already obtained, (ii) filings and other actions necessary to perfect
Liens created by the Loan Documents and (iii) others approvals, consents
and filings which the failure to obtain would not reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

7.3          Title
to Properties; Leases.  The
Borrower owns all of the material assets reflected in the consolidated balance
sheet of the Borrower as at the Balance Sheet Date or acquired since that date
(except property and assets sold or otherwise disposed of in the ordinary
course of business or as permitted hereunder since that date), subject to no
Liens or other rights of others, except Permitted Liens.

 

7.4          Fiscal
Year Financial Statements.

 

7.4.1.       Fiscal Year.  The Borrower has a fiscal year which is the
twelve months ending on December 31 of each calendar year.

 

48

 

7.4.2.       Financial Statements.  There has been furnished to the
Administrative Agent and each Lender a consolidated balance sheet of CLI and
its Subsidiaries as of December 31, 2009, and a consolidated statement of
income and cash flows of CLI and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year then
ended, audited and certified by Ernst & Young, LLP or other
independent certified public accountants of national standing reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
Such balance sheets and statements of income and cash flows have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP and fairly present in all material respects
the financial condition of CLI as at the close of business on the date thereof
and the results of operations for the fiscal period then ended, subject to year-end
audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes with respect to the quarterly
financial statements.  There are no
contingent liabilities of CLI as of such dates involving material amounts,
known to the officers of CLI, which were not disclosed in such balance sheets
and the notes related thereto, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the
absence of footnotes with respect to quarterly financial statements.

 

7.5          Prior
Activities of Borrower.  The
Borrower is not now, and has not been, a party to any contract or agreement
(whether written or oral) other than the Loan Documents, and has not engaged in
any activity or incurred any obligations or liabilities except pursuant to the
terms of the Loan Documents.

 

7.6          Litigation.  There are no actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations of any kind pending or threatened against the Borrower before
any Governmental Authority (a) as to which there is a reasonable
likelihood of an adverse determination and that, if adversely determined, could
reasonably be expected to, either in any one case or in the aggregate of all
such cases, have a Material Adverse Effect, or (b) as of the date hereof,
which question the validity of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, or any action taken or to be taken pursuant hereto or thereto.

 

7.7          No
Materially Adverse Contracts.  The Borrower is not
subject to any Governing Document or other legal restriction, or any judgment,
decree, order, law, statute, rule or regulation that has or is expected in
the future to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

7.8          Compliance
with Other Instruments, Laws, etc.  The Borrower is not in violation of any
provision of its Governing Documents, or any agreement or instrument to which
it may be subject or by which it or any of its properties may be bound or any
decree, order, judgment, statute, license, rule or regulation, in any of
the foregoing cases in a manner that could have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

7.9          Tax
Status.  The Borrower (a) has made
or filed all federal, state and foreign income and all other tax returns,
reports and declarations required to have been made or filed by any
jurisdiction to which it is subject, (b) has paid all taxes and other
governmental assessments and charges shown or determined to be due on such
returns, reports and declarations, except those being contested in good faith
and by appropriate proceedings and (c) has set aside on their books
provisions reasonably adequate for the payment of all material taxes for
periods subsequent to the periods to which such returns, reports or
declarations apply.  There are no unpaid
taxes in any material amount claimed to be due by the taxing authority of any
jurisdiction, and none of the officers of the Borrower know of any basis for
any such claim.  The

 

49

 

amount of reserves
established by the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries to cover the
Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s material sales or use tax obligations in each
jurisdiction where the Borrower or such Subsidiary is required to pay such
taxes is adequate for the payment of all of such obligations.

 

7.10        Investment
Company Act.  The
Borrower is not an “investment company”, or an “affiliated company” or a
“principal underwriter” of an “investment company”, as such terms are defined
in the Investment Company Act of 1940.

 

7.11        Perfection
of Security Interest.  As of the date hereof, to the extent
required by the Security Documents, all filings, assignments, pledges and
deposits of documents or instruments have been made (or will, within ten (10) days
of the Closing Date, be made) and all other actions have been taken (or will,
within ten (10) days of the Closing Date, be taken) that are necessary or
(if requested by the Administrative Agent) advisable, under applicable law, to
establish and perfect the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the
Collateral.  The Collateral and the
Administrative Agent’s rights with respect to the Collateral are not subject to
any setoff, claims, withholdings or other defenses (other than in connection
with Permitted Liens).

 

7.12        Employee
Benefit Plans.

 

(a)           Employee Benefit Plans.  Each Employee Benefit Plan and each
Guaranteed Pension Plan has been maintained and operated in compliance in all
material respects with the provisions of ERISA and all Applicable Pension
Legislation and, to the extent applicable, the Code, including but not limited
to the provisions thereunder respecting prohibited transactions and the bonding
of fiduciaries and other persons handling plan funds as required by §412 of
ERISA. The Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Administrative Agent the
most recently completed annual report, Form 5500, with all required
attachments, and actuarial statement required to be submitted under §103(d) of
ERISA, with respect to each Guaranteed Pension Plan.

 

(b)           Welfare Plans.  No Employee Benefit Plan, which is an
employee welfare benefit plan within the meaning of §3(1) or §3(2)(B) of
ERISA, provides benefit coverage subsequent to termination of employment,
except as required by Title I, Part 6 of ERISA or the applicable state
insurance laws.

 

(c)           Guaranteed Pension Plans.  Each contribution required to be made to a
Guaranteed Pension Plan, whether required to be made to avoid the incurrence of
an accumulated funding deficiency or the notice or lien provisions of §302(f) of
ERISA, has been timely made.  No waiver
of an accumulated funding deficiency or extension of amortization periods has
been received with respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan, and neither the
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is obligated to or has posted security in
connection with an amendment to a Guaranteed Pension Plan pursuant to §307 of
ERISA or §401(a)(29) of the Code.  No
liability to the PBGC (other than required insurance premiums, all of which
have been paid) has been incurred by the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate with
respect to any Guaranteed Pension Plan and there has not been any ERISA
Reportable Event (other than an ERISA Reportable Event as to which the
requirement of

 

50

 

30 days notice has been waived), or any other
event or condition which presents a material risk of termination of any
Guaranteed Pension Plan by the PBGC. Based on the latest valuation of each
Guaranteed Pension Plan (which in each case occurred within twelve months of
the date of this representation), and on the actuarial methods and assumptions
employed for that valuation, the aggregate benefit liabilities of all such
Guaranteed Pension Plans within the meaning of §4001 of ERISA did not exceed
the aggregate value of the assets of all such Guaranteed Pension Plans,
disregarding for this purpose the benefit liabilities and assets of any
Guaranteed Pension Plan with assets in excess of benefit liabilities.

 

(d)           Multiemployer Plans.  Neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate
has incurred any material liability (including secondary liability) to any
Multiemployer Plan as a result of a complete or partial withdrawal from such
Multiemployer Plan under §4201 of ERISA or as a result of a sale of assets
described in §4204 of ERISA.  Neither the
Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has been notified that any Multiemployer Plan
is in reorganization or insolvent under and within the meaning of §4241 or
§4245 of ERISA or is at risk of entering reorganization or becoming insolvent,
or that any Multiemployer Plan intends to terminate or has been terminated
under §4041A of ERISA.

 

7.13        Place
of Business.  The
Borrower’s only “place of business” (within the meaning of 9-307 of the UCC) is
located at c/o Container Leasing International, LLC, One Maynard Drive, Park
Ridge, New Jersey 07656.

 

7.14        Subsidiaries.  As of the date hereof, the Borrower has no
Subsidiaries and is not party to any joint ventures or partnerships between the
Borrower and any other Person.

 

7.15        Bank
Accounts.  As of the
date hereof, the Borrower maintains the deposit accounts listed on Schedule
7.15 hereto and no other deposit accounts. 
In the event the Borrower opens or maintains any additional deposit
accounts other than the deposit accounts listed on Schedule 7.15 hereto, the
Borrower shall immediately provide the Administrative Agent with notice of such
deposit accounts and shall otherwise comply (to the extent applicable) with the
provisions of the Security Agreement.

 

7.16        Disclosure.  The Borrower has disclosed to the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders all agreements, instruments and corporate
or other restrictions to which it or CLI is subject, and all other matters
known to it, that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.  No report, financial statement, certificate
or other information furnished (whether in writing or orally) by or on behalf
of the Borrower to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with
the transactions contemplated hereby and the negotiation of this Credit
Agreement or delivered hereunder or under any other Loan Document (in each case
as modified or supplemented by other information so furnished) contains any material
misstatement of fact or omits to state any material fact necessary to make the
statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading; provided that, with respect to projected financial
information, the Borrower represents only that such information was prepared in
good faith based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable at the time.

 

51

 

7.17        Foreign
Assets Control Regulations, Etc.  (a). 
None of the requesting or borrowing of the Credit Loans, or the use of
the proceeds of any thereof will violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50
U.S.C. § 1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With the Enemy Act”)
or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury
Department (31 CFR, Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control Regulations”) or any enabling
legislation or executive order relating thereto (which for the avoidance of
doubt shall include, but shall not be limited to (a) Executive Order 13224
of September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With
Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg.
49079 (2001)) (the “Executive Order”)
and (b) the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate
Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (Public Law
107-56)).

 

(b)           The Borrower is a “U.S.
Person” with the meaning of the laws, rules and regulations promulgated,
imposed or monitored by OFAC, and none of the Borrower, any Subsidiary of the
Borrower or any Affiliate of the Borrower (i) is a Sanctioned Person, (ii) has
any of its assets in Sanctioned Countries, or (iii) derives any of its
operating income from investments in, or transactions with Sanctioned Persons
or Sanctioned Countries.  The proceeds of
any Credit Loan will not be used and have not been used to fund any operations
in, finance any investments or activities in or make any payments to, a
Sanctioned Person.

 

7.18        Margin
Regulations.  The
Borrower does not own any “margin security”, as that term is defined in
Regulation U of the Federal Reserve Board, and the proceeds of each Credit Loan
will be used only for the purposes contemplated hereunder. None of such
proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or
carrying any margin security, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any
Indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any margin
security or for any other purpose which might cause of the Credit Loans under
this Credit Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of
Regulations T, U, and X.  The Borrower
will not take or permit any agent acting on its behalf to take any action which
might cause this Credit Agreement or any document or instrument delivered
pursuant hereto to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

or any other note, evidence of indebtedness, indenture or other obligation to
which or with respect to which the Borrower is a party or obligor, whether as

its or their business and does not in the aggregate have a Material Adverse
Effect.

otherwise at the expense of the Lenders and at such reasonable times and
intervals as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request in

frequently if the Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably determines or
if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, upon the request
of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, the Borrower will obtain and deliver
to the Administrative Agent or, if the Administrative Agent so elects, will
cooperate with the Administrative Agent in obtaining, a report of an
independent commercial finance examiner satisfactory to the Administrative
Agent (which may be affiliated with one of the Lenders) with respect to the
Eligible Containers, Eligible Generator Sets and Eligible Direct Finance Leases
included in the Borrowing Base, which report shall indicate whether or not the

it or its property, (b) the provisions of its Governing Documents and (c) all
material agreements and instruments by which it or any of its properties may be
bound, except where, in all such instances, the failure to do so, individually
or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material
Adverse Effect.  If any authorization,
consent, approval, permit or license from any officer, agency or instrumentality
of any government shall become necessary or required in order that the Borrower
may fulfill any of its obligations hereunder or under any of the other Loan

of Collateral.  If the
Borrower shall receive from any Person any payments with respect to the
Collateral (to the extent such Collateral has not been released from the Lien

for the Administrative Agent and the Lender, and subject to the security
interest in favor of the Administrative Agent and shall immediately deposit
such payment in the Trust Account.

 

8.17        UNIDROIT
Convention.  The

(II) of Section 4.1(d).

 

14.          THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT.

 

14.1        Authorization;
Reliance by Administrative Agent.

 

(a)           Each of the Lenders hereby
irrevocably appoints Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to act on its behalf as the
Administrative Agent under this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents
and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and
to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the
terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are
reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely
for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower
shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of, nor otherwise have any
incremental obligations on account of, any of such provisions.

 

(b)           The Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying
upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument,
document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or
intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine
and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person.
The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or
by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and
shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance
with any condition hereunder to the making of a Credit Loan that by its terms
must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may
presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the
Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such
Lender prior to the making of such Credit Loan. The Administrative Agent may
consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent
accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any
action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such
counsel, accountants or experts.

 

(c)           The relationship between the
Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders is that of an independent
contractor.  The use of the term
“Administrative Agent” is for convenience only and is used to describe, as a
form of convention, the independent contractual relationship between the
Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. 
Nothing contained in this Credit Agreement nor the other Loan Documents
shall be construed to create an agency, trust or other fiduciary relationship
between the Administrative Agent and any of the Lenders.

 

72

 

(d)           As an independent contractor
empowered by the Lenders to exercise certain rights and perform certain duties
and responsibilities hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the
Administrative Agent is nevertheless a “representative” of the Lenders, as that
term is defined in Article 1 of the Uniform Commercial Code, for purposes
of actions for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent with
respect to all collateral security and guaranties contemplated by the Loan
Documents.  Such actions include the
designation of the Administrative Agent as “secured party”, “mortgagee” or the
like on all financing statements and other documents and instruments, whether
recorded or otherwise, relating to the attachment, perfection, priority or
enforcement of any security interests, mortgages or deeds of trust in
collateral security intended to secure the payment or performance of any of the
Obligations, all for the benefit of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent.

 

14.2        Delegation
of Duties.  The
Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its
rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any
one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent, and all
reasonable fees and expenses of any such Persons shall be paid by the Borrower.
The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its
duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective
Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to
any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and
any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein.

 

14.3        Exculpatory
Provisions.  The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those
expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

 

(a)           shall not be subject to any
fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event
of Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

(b)           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 the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in
its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent
to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law; and

 

(c)           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 the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or
obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its
Affiliates in any capacity.

 

The Administrative Agent
shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent
or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage
of the

 

73

 

Lenders as shall be
necessary), or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be
necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 16.12 or (ii) in
the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default,
Early Amortization Event or Event of Default unless and until notice describing
such Default, Early Amortization Event or an Event of Default is given to the
Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.

 

The Administrative Agent
shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any
certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in
connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of
any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein
or therein or the occurrence of any Default, Early Amortization Event or Event
of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other
agreement, instrument or document, (v) the value of any Collateral or (vi) the
satisfaction of any condition set forth in Sections 11 or 12 or elsewhere
herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be
delivered to the Administrative Agent.

 

14.4        No
Representations.

 

14.4.1.     General.  The Administrative Agent has not made nor
does it now make any representations or warranties, express or implied, nor
does it assume any liability to the Lenders, with respect to the credit
worthiness or financial conditions of the Borrower.

 

14.4.2.     Closing Documentation, etc.  For purposes of determining compliance with
the conditions set forth in Sections 11 or 12, each Lender that has executed
this Credit Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or
accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document and matter either sent, or
made available, by the Administrative Agent to such Lender for consent, approval,
acceptance or satisfaction, or required thereunder to be consented to or
approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to such Lender, unless an officer of
the Administrative Agent active upon the Borrower’s account shall have received
notice from such Lender prior to the Closing Date or Funding Date, as
applicable, specifying such Lender’s objection thereto and such objection shall
not have been withdrawn by notice to the Administrative Agent to such effect on
or prior to the Closing Date or Funding Date, as applicable.

 

14.4.3.     Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.  Each Lender
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and
based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its
own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Credit Agreement.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other
Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and
information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make
its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this
Credit Agreement, any

 

74

 

other
Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or
thereunder.

 

14.5        Payments.

 

14.5.1.     Payments to Administrative Agent.  A payment by the
Borrower to the Administrative Agent hereunder or any of the other Loan
Documents for the account of any Lender shall constitute a payment to such
Lender.  The Administrative Agent agrees
promptly to distribute to each Lender such Lender’s pro rata share of payments received by the Administrative Agent for
the account of the Lenders except as otherwise expressly provided herein or in
any of the other Loan Documents.

 

14.5.2.     Distribution by Administrative Agent.  If in the opinion
of the Administrative Agent the distribution of any amount received by it in
such capacity hereunder, under the Notes or under any of the other Loan
Documents might involve it in liability, it may refrain from making
distribution until its right to make distribution shall have been adjudicated
by a court of competent jurisdiction.  If
a court of competent jurisdiction shall adjudge that any amount received and
distributed by the Administrative Agent is to be repaid, each Person to whom
any such distribution shall have been made shall either repay to the
Administrative Agent its proportionate share of the amount so adjudged to be
repaid or shall pay over the same in such manner and to such Persons as shall
be determined by such court.

 

14.5.3.     Delinquent Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, any
Lender that fails (a) to make available to the Administrative Agent its pro rata share of any Credit Loan or (b) to
comply with the provisions of Section 16.1 with respect to making
dispositions and arrangements with the other Lenders, where such Lender’s share
of any payment received, whether by setoff or otherwise, is in excess of its pro rata share of such payments due and
payable to all of the Lenders, in each case as, when and to the full extent required
by the provisions of this Credit Agreement, shall be deemed delinquent (a “Delinquent Lender”) and shall be deemed a
Delinquent Lender until such time as such delinquency is satisfied.  A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have
assigned any and all payments due to it from the Borrower, whether on account
of outstanding Credit Loans, interest, fees or otherwise, to the remaining
nondelinquent Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their respective pro rata shares of all outstanding Credit Loans.  The Delinquent Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the nondelinquent Lenders
in proportion to their respective pro rata
shares of all outstanding Credit Loans. 
A Delinquent Lender shall be deemed to have satisfied in full a
delinquency when and if, as a result of application of the assigned payments to
all outstanding Credit Loans of the nondelinquent Lenders, the Lenders’
respective pro rata shares of all
outstanding Credit Loans have returned to those in effect immediately prior to
such delinquency and without giving effect to the nonpayment causing such
delinquency.

 

14.6        Holders
of Notes.  The
Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the absolute
owner or purchaser thereof for all purposes hereof until it shall have

 

75

 

been furnished in writing
with a different name by such payee or by a subsequent holder, assignee or
transferee.

 

14.7        Reimbursement
by Lenders.  To the extent that the Borrower for
any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under Section 16.2
or Section 16.3 to be paid by Borrower to the Administrative Agent (or any
sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of the Administrative Agent, each
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment
Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense
or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the
unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related
expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the
Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or against any Related Party of
any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such
sub-agent) in connection with such capacity. 
The obligations of each Lender under this Section 14.7 are several.

 

14.8        Rights
as Lender.  The Person
serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and
powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the
same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or
“Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context
otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent
hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept
deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other
advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the
Borrower or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the
Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the
Lenders.

 

14.9        Resignation
of Administrative Agent.  The
Administrative Agent may at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written
notice of its resignation to the Lenders and each Interest Rate Hedge Provider
and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor, which (i) shall be a
bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with
an office in the United States and (ii) unless a Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be reasonably acceptable
to the Borrower. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the
Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the
retiring Administrative Agent may on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor
Agent which shall be a financial institution having a rating of not less than
“A” or its equivalent by S&P.  If the
Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no
qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall
nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice and (1) the
retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged. from its duties and
obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the
case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of
the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue
to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative
Agent is appointed) and (2) all payments, communications and
determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent
shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time as the
Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above
in this paragraph. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s

 

76

 

appointment as Agent
hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the
rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or retired)
Administrative Agent, and the retiring (or retired) Administrative Agent shall
be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this
paragraph). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative
Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise
agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring (or retired)
Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan
Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 16.3 shall
continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring (or retired) Administrative
Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any
actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring (or
retired) Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

 

14.10      Notification
of Defaults, Early Amortization Events and Events of Default.  Each Lender hereby agrees that, upon
obtaining knowledge of the existence of any Default, Early Amortization Event
or Event of Default, it shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof.  The Administrative Agent hereby agrees that
upon receipt of any notice under this Section 14.10, the Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the other Lenders of the existence of such Default,
Early Amortization Event or Event of Default.

 

14.11      Duties
in the Case of Enforcement.  In case one of more Events of Default have
occurred and shall be continuing, and whether or not acceleration of the
Obligations shall have occurred, the Administrative Agent shall, if (a) so
requested by the Required Lenders and (b) the Lenders have provided to the
Administrative Agent such additional indemnities and assurances against
expenses and liabilities as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request,
proceed to enforce the provisions of the Security Documents authorizing the
sale or other disposition of all or any part of the Collateral and exercise all
or any such other legal and equitable and other rights or remedies as it may
have in respect of such Collateral.  The
Required Lenders may direct the Administrative Agent in writing as to the
method and the extent of any such sale or other disposition, the Lenders hereby
agreeing to indemnify and hold the Administrative Agent, harmless from all
liabilities incurred in respect of all actions taken or omitted in accordance
with such directions, provided that the Administrative Agent need not comply
with any such direction to the extent that the Administrative Agent reasonably
believes the Administrative Agent’s compliance with such direction to be
unlawful or commercially unreasonable in any applicable jurisdiction.

 

14.12      Administrative
Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

 

(a)           In case of the pendency of
any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization,
arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial, administrative or like
proceeding or any assignment for the benefit of creditors relative to the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of
any Credit Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration
or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have
made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by
intervention in such proceeding, under any such assignment or otherwise:

 

77

 

(i)            to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of
the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Credit Loans and
all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other
documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the
Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable
compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the
Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other
amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under the terms of this
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents) allowed in such proceeding or
under any such assignment; and

 

(ii)           to collect and receive any monies or other property
payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

 

(b)           Any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any
such proceeding or under any such assignment is hereby authorized by each Lender
to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the
Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to
the Lenders, nevertheless to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for
the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the
Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the
Administrative Agent under Sections 4.1, 5.1, 16.2 and 16.3.

 

(c)           Nothing contained herein
shall authorize the Administrative Agent to consent to or accept or adopt on
behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or
composition affecting the Obligations owed to such Lender or the rights of any
Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim
of any Lender in any such proceeding or under any such assignment.

 

15.          ASSIGNMENT.

 

15.1        General
Conditions.  The
provisions of this Credit Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the
benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer
any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
the Administrative Agent and each Lender. 
No Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or
obligations hereunder except (a) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance
with the provisions of Section 15.2, (b) by way of participation in
accordance with the provisions of Section 15.4, or (c) by way of
pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 15.5
(and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be
null and void).  Nothing in this Credit
Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person
(other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in Section 15.4 and,
to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or
claim under or by reason of this Credit Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents.

 

78

 

15.2        Assignments.  Any Lender may at any time assign to one or
more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under
this Credit Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the
Loans at the time owing to it); provided that:

 

(a)           except in the cases of an
assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment
and the Credit Loans at the time owing to it or of an assignment to a Lender,
an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, the aggregate amount of the
Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or,
if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding
balance of the Loan of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment
(determined as of the date on which the Assignment and Acceptance with respect
to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less
than $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no
Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise
consent (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);

 

(b)           each partial assignment
shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning
Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement with respect to the
Loan or the Commitment assigned;

 

(c)           any assignment of a
Commitment must be approved by the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless the Person that is the proposed
assignee is itself a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

 

(d)           the parties to each
assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment
and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and
the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the
Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

 

Subject to acceptance and
recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 15.3,
from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance,
the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Credit Agreement and, to the
extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance have the
rights and obligations of a Lender under this Credit Agreement, and the
assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by
such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this
Credit Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all
of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Credit Agreement,
such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled
to the benefits of (i) Sections 5.1.2, 5.1.4, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6, and 5.8 with
respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of
such assignment and (ii) Section 16.3 notwithstanding such
assignment.  Any assignment or transfer
by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Credit Agreement that does not
comply with this paragraph shall be null and void.

 

15.3        Register.  The Administrative Agent, acting solely for
this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative
Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a
register (the “Register”) for the recordation of
the names

 

79

 

and addresses of the
Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts of the Credit Loans
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be
conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may
treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms
hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Credit Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any
Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior
notice.

 

15.4        Participations.  Any
Lender may at any time sell participations to any Person (other than a natural
person or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries)
(each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of
such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Credit Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that
(a) such Lender’s obligations under this Credit Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (b) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other
parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (c) the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely
and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and
obligations under this Credit Agreement, and (d) so long as no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing, the approval of the
Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required in
connection with the sale of a participant interest to a Person other than (i) another
Lender, (ii) an Affiliate of such Lender or (iii) an Approved Fund; provided, however that this clause (d) shall not be
applicable to participations sold by a Lender if the participation interest
sold does not exceed 50% of the Commitment of such Lender on the date of the
sale of such participation interest.

 

Any agreement or instrument
pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such
Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Credit Agreement and to
approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Credit
Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such
Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any
amendment, modification or waiver of the type described in Section 16.12(a) or
Section 16.12(b), that in each case, affects such Participant.  Subject to the last paragraph of this Section 15.4,
the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of
Sections 5.1.2, 5.1.4, 5.4, 5.5, 5.6 and 5.8 to the same extent as if it
were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to
Sections 15.2.  To the extent
permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 16.1
as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 16.1
as though it were a Lender.

 

A Participant that would be
a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.1.2
unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant
and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 5.1.3
as though it were a Lender.

 

15.5        Certain
Pledges.  A Lender may at any time grant
a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Credit
Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation (a) any
pledge or assignment to secure obligations to any of the Federal Reserve Banks
organized under §4 of the Federal Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. §341 and (b) with
respect to any Lender that is an Approved Fund, to any lender or any trustee
for, or any other

 

80

 

representative of, holders
of obligations owed or securities issued by such Approved Fund as security for
such obligations or securities or any institutional custodian for such Approved
Fund or for such lender; provided that no such grant shall release such Lender
from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such secured party for
such Lender as a party hereto.

 

15.6        New
Notes.  Upon its receipt of an
Assignment and Acceptance executed by the parties to such assignment, together
with each Note (if any) subject to such assignment, the Administrative Agent
shall (a) record the information contained therein in the Register, and (b) give
prompt notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders (other than the assigning
Lender).  If requested, the Borrower, at
its own expense, shall, promptly upon its receipt thereof, execute and deliver
to the Administrative Agent, in exchange for each surrendered Note, a new Note
to the order of such Assignee in an amount equal to the amount assumed by such
Assignee pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the assigning
Lender has retained some portion of its obligations hereunder, a new Note to the
order of the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the amount retained by it
hereunder.  Such new Notes shall provide
that they are replacements for the surrendered Notes, shall be in an aggregate
principal amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the surrendered
Notes (after giving effect to any permanent reductions in the applicable
Commitments), shall be dated the effective date of such Assignment and
Acceptance and shall otherwise be in substantially the form of the assigned
Notes. The surrendered Notes shall be cancelled and returned to the Borrower.

 

15.7        Assignment
by Borrower.  The Borrower shall not assign or
transfer any of its rights or obligations under any of the Loan Documents
without the prior written consent of each of the Lenders.

 

16.          PROVISIONS
OF GENERAL APPLICATIONS.

 

16.1        Setoff;
Proration of Payments.  The
Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders a
continuing lien, security interest and right of setoff as security for all
liabilities and obligations to the Administrative Agent and each Lender,
whether now existing or hereafter arising, upon and against all deposits,
credits, collateral and property, now or hereafter in the possession, custody,
safekeeping or control of the Administrative Agent or such Lender or any Lender
Affiliate and their successors and assigns or in transit to any of them.  Regardless of the adequacy of any collateral,
if any of the Obligations are due and payable and have not been paid or any
Event of Default shall have occurred, any deposits or other sums credited by or
due from any of the Lenders to the Borrower and any securities or other
property of the Borrower in the possession of such Lender may, to the extent
permitted by applicable law, be applied to or set off by such Lender against
the payment of Obligations and any and all other liabilities, direct, or
indirect, absolute or contingent, due or to become due, now existing or
hereafter arising, of the Borrower to such Lender.  ANY AND ALL RIGHTS TO REQUIRE ANY LENDER TO
EXERCISE ITS RIGHTS OR REMEDIES WITH RESPECT TO ANY OTHER COLLATERAL WHICH
SECURES THE OBLIGATIONS, PRIOR TO EXERCISING ITS RIGHT OF SETOFF WITH RESPECT
TO SUCH DEPOSITS, CREDITS OR OTHER PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER ARE HEREBY
KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVED.

 

81

 

Each of the Lenders agree
with each other Lender that (a) if an amount to be set off is to be
applied to that portion of Obligation of the Borrower to such Lender, other
than the Obligation evidenced by the Credit Loan held by such Lender, such
amount shall be applied ratably to such other indebtedness and to the
indebtedness evidenced by all such Credit Loans held by such Lender, and (b) if
such Lender shall receive from the Borrower, whether by voluntary payment,
exercise of the right of setoff, counterclaim, cross action, enforcement of the
claim evidenced by the Credit Loans held by such Lender by proceedings against
the Borrower at law or in equity or by proof thereof in bankruptcy,
reorganization, liquidation, receivership or similar proceedings, or otherwise,
and shall retain and apply to the payment of the Credit Loans held by such
Lender any amount in excess of its ratable portion of the payments received by
all of the Lenders with respect to the Credit Loan owed to all of the Lenders,
such Lender will make such disposition and arrangements with the other Lenders
with respect to such excess, either by way of distribution, pro tanto assignment of claims, subrogation or
otherwise as shall result in each Lender receiving in respect of the Credit
Loan held by it, its proportionate payment as contemplated by this Credit
Agreement; provided, that if all or any part of such excess payment is
thereafter recovered from such Lender, such disposition and arrangements shall
be rescinded and the amount restored to the extent of such recovery, but
without interest.

 

16.2        Expenses.  The Borrower agrees to pay (a) the
reasonable costs of the Administrative Agent in producing and reproducing this
Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other agreements and instruments
mentioned herein, (b) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of
the Administrative Agent’s Special Counsel or any local counsel to the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection with the preparation, syndication,
administration or interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments
mentioned herein, each closing hereunder, any amendments, modifications,
approvals, consents or waivers hereto or hereunder requested by the Borrower,
or the cancellation of any Loan Document upon payment in full in cash of all of
the Obligations or pursuant to any terms of such Loan Document for providing
for such cancellation, (c) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements
of the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates incurred by the Administrative
Agent or such affiliate in connection with the preparation, administration or
interpretation of the Loan Documents and other instruments mentioned herein as
provided in the Fee Letter, including all commercial finance examination
charges, (d) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including without
limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, which attorneys may be
employees of any Lender or the Administrative Agent, and reasonable consulting,
accounting, appraisal, commercial finance examination, investment banking and
similar professional fees and charges) incurred by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent in connection with (i) the enforcement of or
preservation of rights under any of the Loan Documents against the Borrower or
the administration thereof after the occurrence of a Default or Event of
Default and (ii) any litigation, proceeding or dispute whether arising
hereunder or otherwise, in any way related to any Lender’s or the
Administrative Agent’s relationship with the Borrower in connection herewith
and (e) all reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of the
Administrative Agent incurred in connection with UCC searches, UCC filings or
mortgage recordings relating to the Loan Documents.  The covenants contained in this Section 16.2
shall survive payment or satisfaction in full of all other Obligations.

 

16.3        Indemnification.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless the Administrative Agent, its affiliates, its sub-agents, each Secured
Party, and each Related Party of

 

82

 

any of the foregoing (each,
an “Indemnified Party”) from and against
any and all claims, actions and suits whether groundless or otherwise, and from
and against any and all liabilities, losses, damages and related expenses of
every nature and character (other than taxes) arising out of this Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, the performance by the respective
parties of their obligations hereunder or thereunder, or the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby including, without limitation, (a) any
actual or proposed use by the Borrower of the proceeds of any of the Credit
Loans, (b) the reversal or withdrawal of any provisional credits granted
by the Administrative Agent upon the transfer of funds from lock box, bank
agency, concentration accounts or otherwise under any cash management
arrangements with the Borrower or any Affiliate or in connection with the
provisional honoring of funds transfers, checks or other items, (c) any actual
or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any
of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort, or any other theory, and
regardless of whether any Indemnified Party is a party thereof, (d) any
civil penalty or fine assessed by OFAC against, and all reasonable costs an
Affiliate (including reasonable counsel fees and disbursements) incurred in
connection with defense thereof by, the Administrative Agent or any Secured
Party as a result of conduct of the Borrower that violates a sanction enforced
by OFAC or (e) with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and their
respective properties and assets, the violation of any Environmental Law, the
presence, disposal, escape, seepage, leakage, spillage, discharge, emission,
release or threatened release of any Hazardous Substances or any action, suit,
proceeding or investigation brought or threatened with respect to any Hazardous
Substances (including, but not limited to, claims with respect to wrongful
death, personal injury or damage to property), in each case including, without
limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and allocated
costs of internal counsel incurred in connection with any such investigation,
litigation or other proceeding; provided, however, the Borrower shall not be
responsible for any liabilities, losses, damages and/or expenses under this Section 16.3
were caused by such Indemnified Party’s own gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  In litigation, or the
preparation therefor, the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent and its
Affiliates shall be entitled to select their own counsel and, in addition to
the foregoing indemnity, the Borrower agrees to pay promptly the reasonable
fees and expenses of such counsel.  To
the extent that the respective interests of the Secured Parties and the
Administrative Agent in such litigation do not, and reasonably could not be
expected to, conflict (such determination of existing or potential conflict to
be made by the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent using their
reasonable good faith judgment), the Secured Parties and the Administrative
Agent shall make reasonable efforts to use common counsel in connection with
such litigation and the preparation therefor. 
If, and to the extent that the obligations of the Borrower under this Section 16.3
are unenforceable for any reason, the Borrower hereby agrees to make the
maximum contribution to the payment in satisfaction of such obligations which
is permissible under applicable law.  The
covenants contained in this Section 16.3 shall survive payment or
satisfaction in full of all other Obligations.

 

16.4        Treatment
of Certain Confidential Information.

 

16.4.1.     Confidentiality.  Each of the Lenders and the Administrative
Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and each of its affiliates, directors,
officers, employees and representatives, to use reasonable precautions to keep
confidential, in accordance with their customary procedures for handling
confidential information of the same nature and in accordance with safe and
sound banking practices, any non-public information

 

83

 

supplied
to it by the Borrower pursuant to this Credit Agreement that is identified by
such Person as being confidential at the time the same is delivered to the
Lenders or the Administrative Agent, provided that nothing herein shall limit
the disclosure of any such information (a) after such information shall
have become public other than through a violation of this Section 16.4, or
becomes available to any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent on a
nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower, (b) to the
extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial process, (c) to
counsel for any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent, (d) to bank
examiners or any other regulatory authority having jurisdiction over any Lender
or the Administrative Agent, or to auditors or accountants, so long as such
information is disclosed to such Persons on a confidential basis and such
Persons are made aware of the applicability thereto of the provisions of this Section 16.4.1,
(e) to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Financial Affiliate, (f) in
connection with any litigation to which any one or more of the Lenders, the
Administrative Agent or any Financial Affiliate is a party, or in connection
with the enforcement of rights or remedies hereunder or under any other Loan
Document, (g) to a Lender Affiliate or a Subsidiary or affiliate of the
Administrative Agent, so long as such information is disclosed to such Persons
on a confidential basis and such Persons are made aware of the applicability
thereto of the provisions of this Section 16.4.1, (h) to any actual
or prospective assignee of, or participant in, a Credit Loan and/or Commitment
or any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or
derivative transactions referenced to credit or other risks or events arising
under this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as such assignee
or counterparty, as the case may be, agrees to be bound by the provisions of Section 16.4
or (i) with the prior written consent of the Borrower.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the
contrary: (i) each party hereto (and each employee, representative or
other agent of such party) may disclose to any and all Persons, beginning
immediately upon commencement of discussions regarding the transactions
contemplated hereby, and without limitation of any kind, any information with
respect to the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions
contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other
tax analyses) that are provided to such party (or such employee, representative
or other agent of such party) relating to such tax treatment and tax structure;
provided that with respect to any document or similar item that in either case
contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the
transaction as well as other information, this sentence shall only apply to
such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment
or tax structure of the Loans, Letters of Credit and transactions contemplated
hereby; and (ii) any Lender may disclose confidential information, without
notice to the Borrower, to governmental regulatory authorities in connection
with any regulatory examination of such Lender or in accordance with such
Lender’s regulatory compliance policy.

 

16.4.2.     Prior Notification.  Unless specifically prohibited by applicable
law or court order, each of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent shall,
prior to disclosure thereof, notify the Borrower of any request for disclosure
of any such non-public information by any governmental agency or representative
thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of the
financial condition of such Lender by such governmental agency) or pursuant to
legal process.

 

84

 

16.4.3.     Other.  In no event shall any Lender or the
Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished
to it or any Financial Affiliate by the Borrower.  The obligations of each Lender under this Section 16.4
shall supersede and replace the obligations of such Lender under any
confidentiality letter in respect of this financing signed and delivered by
such Lender to the Borrower prior to the date hereof and shall be binding upon
any assignee of any interest in any of the Credit Loans and shall apply to all
information delivered to such Person either before or after the date of this
Credit Agreement.

 

16.5        Survival
of Covenants, Etc.  All
covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made herein, in any of
the other Loan Documents or in any documents or other papers delivered by or on
behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto shall be deemed to have been relied upon
by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, notwithstanding any investigation
heretofore or hereafter made by any of them, and shall survive the making by
the Lenders of any of the Credit Loans as herein contemplated, and shall
continue in full force and effect so long as any amount due under this Credit
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents remains outstanding or any Lender
has any obligation to make any Credit Loans, and for such further time as may
be otherwise expressly specified in this Credit Agreement.  All statements contained in any certificate
or other paper delivered to any Lender or the Administrative Agent at any time
by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant hereto or in connection with the
transactions contemplated hereby shall constitute representations and warranties
by the Borrower or such Subsidiary hereunder that the matters set forth therein
are true and correct in all material respects as of the time delivered.

 

16.6        Notices.  Except as otherwise expressly provided in
this Credit Agreement, all notices and other communications made or required to

the parties hereto may from time to time agree in writing (but not an
electronic record), and such electronic transmission shall be effective at the
time set forth in such procedures. 
Unless otherwise expressly provided in such procedures, such an
electronic record shall be equivalent to a writing under the other provisions
of this Credit Agreement, and such authentication, if made in compliance with
the procedures so agreed by the parties hereto in writing (but not an
electronic record), shall be equivalent to a signature under the other
provisions of this Credit Agreement.

 

16.7        Governing
Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Venue.  THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT AND, EXCEPT AS
OTHERWISE SPECIFICALLY PROVIDED THEREIN, EACH OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS ARE
CONTRACTS UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES BE
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF SAID STATE OF NEW YORK
INCLUDING SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS THEREOF
BUT OTHERWISE WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LAWS APPLICABLE TO CONFLICTS OR CHOICE OF
LAW.  The Borrower irrevocably and
unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive
jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County
and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York,
and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising
out of or relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for
recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto
irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such
action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court
or, to the full extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court.  Each of the parties hereto 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 in this Credit
Agreement or in any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the
Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or
proceeding relating to this Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document against
the Borrower or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 

16.8        Headings.  The captions in this Credit Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit the provisions
hereof.

 

16.9        Counterparts.  This Credit Agreement and any amendment
hereof may be executed in several counterparts and by each party on a separate
counterpart, each of which when executed and delivered shall be an original,
and all of which together shall constitute one instrument.  In proving this Credit Agreement it shall not
be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by
the party against whom enforcement is sought. 
Delivery by facsimile by any of the parties hereto of an executed
counterpart hereof or of any amendment or waiver hereto shall be as effective
as an original executed counterpart hereof or of such amendment or waiver and
shall be considered a representation that an original executed counterpart
hereof or such amendment or waiver, as the case may be, will be delivered.

 

86

 

16.10      Entire
Agreement, Etc.  The Loan
Documents and any other documents executed in connection herewith or therewith
express the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby. Neither this Credit Agreement nor any term
hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated, except as provided in Section 16.12.

 

16.11      Waiver
of Jury Trial.  THE
BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL WITH RESPECT TO ANY ACTION OR
CLAIM ARISING OUT OF ANY DISPUTE IN CONNECTION WITH THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT OR
ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, ANY RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER OR
THEREUNDER OR THE PERFORMANCE OF SUCH RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OR ANY COURSE OF
CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS (WHETHER VERBAL OR WRITTEN) OR ACTIONS
OF ANY PARTY, INCLUDING ANY COURSE OF CONDUCT, COURSE OF DEALINGS, STATEMENTS
OR ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER RELATING TO THE
ADMINISTRATION OF THE LOANS OR ENFORCEMENT OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS AND AGREES
THAT IT WILL NOT SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH ACTION WITH ANY OTHER ACTION IN
WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE OR HAS NOT BEEN WAIVED.  EXCEPT AS PROHIBITED BY LAW, THE BORROWER
HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO CLAIM OR RECOVER IN ANY LITIGATION
REFERRED TO IN THE PRECEDING SENTENCE ANY SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OR ANY DAMAGES OTHER THAN, OR IN ADDITION TO, ACTUAL
DAMAGES.  THE BORROWER (A) CERTIFIES
THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY LENDER OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH LENDER OR THE
ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE
FOREGOING WAIVERS AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND
THE LENDERS HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS CREDIT AGREEMENT, THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS TO WHICH IT IS A PARTY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE WAIVERS AND
CERTIFICATIONS CONTAINED HEREIN.

 

16.12      Consents,
Amendments, Waivers, Etc.  Any
consent or approval required or permitted by this Credit Agreement to be given
by the Lenders may be given, and any term of this Credit Agreement, the other
Loan Documents or any other instrument related hereto or mentioned herein may
be amended, and the performance or observance by the Borrower of any terms of
this Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or such other instrument or the
continuance of any Default or Event of Default may be waived (either generally
or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively) with,
but only with, the written consent of the Borrower and the written consent of
the Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment, modification
or waiver shall:

 

(a)           without the written consent
of the Borrower and each Lender directly affected thereby:

 

(i)            reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Credit
Loan, or reduce the rate of interest on the Notes (other than interest accruing

 

87

 

pursuant
to Section 5.10 following the effective date of any waiver by the Required
Lenders of the Event of Default relating thereto);

 

(ii)           increase the amount of such Lender’s Commitment or
extend the expiration date of such Lender’s Commitment (it being understood
that any amendments or waivers that have the effect of waiving or eliminating
any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in any
Lender’s Commitment);

 

(iii)          postpone or extend the Maturity Date or any other
regularly scheduled dates for payments of principal of, or interest on, the
Credit Loans or any Fees or other amounts payable to such Lender (it being
understood that (A) a waiver of the application of the default rate of
interest pursuant to Section 5.10, and (B) any vote to rescind any
acceleration made pursuant to Section 13.1 of amounts owing with respect to
the Credit Loans and other Obligations shall require only the approval of the
Required Lenders); and

 

(iv)          other than pursuant to a transaction permitted by
the terms of this Credit Agreement, release all or substantially all of the
Collateral (excluding, if the Borrower becomes a debtor under the Bankruptcy
Code, the release of “cash collateral”, as defined in Section 363(a) of
the Bankruptcy Code pursuant to a cash collateral stipulation with the debtor
approved by the Required Lenders);

 

(b)           without the written consent
of all of the Lenders, amend or waive this Section 16.12 or the definition
of Required Lenders;

 

(c)           without the written consent
of the Administrative Agent, amend or waive Section 14, the amount or time
of payment of the Fees payable for the Administrative Agent’s account or any
other provision applicable to the Administrative Agent;

 

(d)           without the written consent
of each Interest Rate Hedge Provider (A) directly and adversely effected
thereby, (i) amend, modify or waive any rights expressly granted to it
under this Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, the right to receive notices, to be secured by the Collateral, have
certain payment priorities in the “waterfall” order of payments set out in Section 4.1
and to consent to certain amendments); (ii) impair the Collateral or
permit any Liens to be imposed on the Collateral, except as expressly permitted
pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents; or
(iii) waive an Event of Default if, at the time of such waiver, an
Interest Rate Hedge Agreement has been previously terminated and the Interest
Rate Hedge Provider is owed any payments on account thereof; or (B) with
respect to any other provision not addressed in clause (A), be effective if such
amendment, modification or waiver could reasonably be expected to have a
material adverse effect on such Interest Rate Hedge Provider.

 

88

 

No waiver shall extend to or
affect any obligation not expressly waived or impair any right consequent
thereon.  No course of dealing or delay
or omission on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising
any right shall operate as a waiver thereof or otherwise be prejudicial
thereto.  No notice to or demand upon the
Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to other or further notice or demand in
similar or other circumstances.  The
Required Lenders shall take such actions, including executing and filing
appropriate releases in connection with a sale, transfer or other disposition
(including by lease) of Collateral permitted by the terms of this Credit
Agreement.

 

16.13      Severability.  The provisions of this Credit Agreement are
severable and if any one clause or provision hereof shall be held invalid or
unenforceable in whole or in part in any jurisdiction, then such invalidity or
unenforceability shall affect only such clause or provision, or part thereof,
in such jurisdiction, and shall not in any manner affect such clause or
provision in any other jurisdiction, or any other clause or provision of this
Credit Agreement in any jurisdiction.

 

16.14      Third
Party Beneficiary.  Each
Interest Rate Hedge Provider is an express third party beneficiary hereof
entitled to rely on and enforce the rights expressly granted to it in any
representation, warranty, covenant and agreement hereunder as if such Interest
Rate Hedge Provider was a party hereto; provided, however,
that the exercise of any remedy with respect to the Collateral must be enforced
through the Administrative Agent and only if such exercise of remedies is
otherwise permitted pursuant to the terms of this Credit Agreement and the
other Security Documents.
