(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay or pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount and to pay interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the such Borrower until the date such amount is repaid or paid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Borrower, the higher of (A) the interest rate applicable

 

37


at such time under Section 2.07 to Advances comprising such Borrowing and (B) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Advance as part of such Borrowing for all purposes.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(g) The Borrowers irrevocably and for value authorize each Lender (at the option of the Lender) from time to time (i) to prepare reliquefication bills of exchange in relation to an Advance to it denominated in Australian Dollars and (ii) to sign them as drawer or endorser in the name of and on behalf of any Borrower. The total face amount of reliquefication bills prepared by any Lender and outstanding in relation to any Advance must not at any time exceed (A) such Lender’s share of the principal amount of such Advance plus (B) the total interest on that share over the relevant Interest Period. Reliquefication bills must mature on or before the last day of the relevant Interest Period. Each Lender may realize or deal with any reliquefication bill prepared by it as it thinks fit. Each Lender shall indemnify the Borrowers on demand against all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by any Borrower by reason of it being a party to a reliquefication bill prepared by such Lender. The immediately preceding sentence shall not affect any obligation of the Borrowers under any Loan Document. In particular, the obligations of the Borrowers to make payments under the Loan Documents are not in any way affected by any liability of any Lender, contingent or otherwise, under the indemnity in this Section 2.02(g). If a reliquefication bill prepared by any Lender is presented to a Borrower and such Borrower discharges it by payment, the amount of that payment will be deemed to have been applied against the moneys payable to such Lender.

(h) Each Lender may, at its option, make any Advance available to any Borrower by causing any foreign or domestic branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Advance; provided, however, that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and (ii) nothing in this Section 2.02(h) shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Advance in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation or warranty by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Advance in any particular place or manner.

SECTION 2.03 Repayment of Advances. (a) The Borrowers shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Lenders on the Termination Date the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Advances then outstanding.

SECTION 2.04 Termination or Reduction of the Commitments. (a) The Borrowers may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part the unused portions of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitments or the Swing Line Facility; provided, however, that each partial reduction of a Facility (i) shall be in an aggregate amount of

 

38


the Revolving Credit Reduction Minimum (or, in the case of the Singapore Swing Line Facility, S$250,000, or, in the case of the Australian Swing Line Facility, A$250,000) or a Revolving Credit Reduction Multiple (or in the case of the Singapore Swing Line Facility, S$250,000, or, in the case of the Australian Swing Line Facility, A$250,000) in excess thereof and (ii) shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments with respect to such Facility. Once terminated, a Commitment may not be reinstated.

(b) The Borrowers may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Sections 2.10(g) and Section 2.13(c) will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrowers for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(c) The Singapore Swing Line Facility shall be permanently reduced from time to time on the date of each reduction in the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Facility by the amount, if any, by which the amount of the Singapore Swing Line Facility exceeds the sum of all Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments.

SECTION 2.05 Prepayments. (a) Optional. Any Borrower may, upon three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given such Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the aggregate principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (i) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Revolving Credit Reduction Minimum or a Revolving Credit Reduction Multiple in excess thereof or, if less, the amount of the Advances outstanding, (ii) if any prepayment of an Advance is made on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Advance, such Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 9.04(c), and (iii) the foregoing provisions shall not apply to the repayment of Swing Line Advances, which payments shall be made pursuant to the terms of Section 2.03(b).

(b) Mandatory. (i) If the Facility Exposure attributable to any Facility (which in the case of the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, shall be expressed in Singapore Dollars or the Equivalent in Singapore Dollars of any Advances thereunder denominated in any other currency) shall at any time equal or exceed 105% of the aggregate Commitments then allocable to such Facility, then the applicable Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after the earlier of the date on which (A) a Responsible Officer becomes aware of such event or (B) written notice thereof shall have been given to the Borrowers by the Administrative Agent, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowings in an amount equal to the amount by which the Facility Exposure attributable to the applicable Facility (which, in the case of the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Facility, shall be expressed in Singapore Dollars or the Equivalent in Singapore Dollars of any Advances thereunder denominated in any other currency) exceeds the aggregate Commitments then allocable to such Facility.

(ii) The Borrowers shall, on each Business Day, prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowings in an amount equal to, after

 

39


taking into account any payments made pursuant to clause (i) above, the amount by which Unsecured Debt of the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries and the Sister Subsidiaries exceeds 70% of the Total Unencumbered Asset Value on such Business Day.

(iii) All prepayments under this subsection (b) shall be made together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid.

SECTION 2.06 Interest. (a) Scheduled Interest. The Borrowers shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the rate per annum equal at all times during each Interest Period for such Advance to the sum of the Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect on the first day of such Interest Period, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period.

(b) Default Interest. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.01(a) or (f) or, at the election of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any other Event of Default, the Borrowers shall pay interest (both before and after judgment) on (i) the unpaid principal amount of each Advance owing to each Lender, payable in arrears on the dates referred to in clause (a) above and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid on such Advance pursuant to clause (a) above and (ii) to the fullest extent permitted by law, the amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable under the Loan Documents that is not paid when due, from the date such amount shall be due until such amount shall be paid in full, payable in arrears on the date such amount shall be paid in full and on demand, at a rate per annum equal at all times to 2% per annum above the rate per annum required to be paid, in the case of interest, on the Advance on which such interest has accrued pursuant to clause (a) above.

(b) Notice of Interest Period and Interest Rate. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(a) or a notice of selection of an Interest Period pursuant to the terms of the definition of “Interest Period”, the Administrative Agent shall give notice to the applicable Borrower and each Lender of the applicable Interest Period and the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative Agent for purposes of clause (a) above.

(c) Market Disruption Events. If a Market Disruption Event occurs in relation to an Advance for any Interest Period for which the Floating Rate was to have been based on SIBOR, then the interest rate on each Lender’s share of such Advance for the Interest Period shall be the rate per annum which is the sum of (A) the rate notified to the Administrative Agent by such Lender as soon as practicable and in any event before interest is due to be paid in respect of such Interest Period, to be that which expresses as a percentage rate per annum the cost to such Lender of funding its share of such Advance from whatever source it may reasonably select plus (B) the Applicable Margin. If a Market Disruption Event occurs and the Administrative Agent or any Borrower so requires, the Administrative Agent and such Borrower shall enter into negotiations (for a period of not more than thirty (30) days) with a view to agreeing a substitute basis for determining the rate of interest. Any alternative basis agreed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence shall, with the prior consent of all of the Lenders in the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Facility and the Borrowers, be binding on all parties.

SECTION 2.07 Fees. (a) Unused Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an unused commitment fee (the “Unused Fee”) from the date hereof in the case of each Initial Lender and from the Transfer Date or the effective date specified in the Assumption Agreement, as the case may be, pursuant to which it became a Lender in the case of each other Lender until the Termination Date, payable in arrears quarterly on the last day of each December, March, June and September, commencing September 30, 2011, and on the Termination Date.

 

40


The Unused Fee payable for the account of each Lender shall be calculated for each period for which the Unused Fee is payable on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during such period at the rate per annum equal to, (a) for any period in which the average daily Facility Exposure for such period is equal to or exceeds 50% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments, 0.25% per annum, and (b) in all other cases, 0.50% per annum. The Unused Fee shall be payable in (i) Singapore Dollars with respect to Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) Australian Dollars with respect to Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments.

(b) Administrative Agent’s Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account the fees, in the amounts and on the dates, set forth in the Fee Letter and such other fees as may from time to time be agreed between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

(c) Defaulting Lenders and Fees. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to Section 2.07(a) (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees).

SECTION 2.08 Applicable Borrower. All Advances in Singapore Dollars shall be advanced to a Singapore Borrower. All Advances in Australian Dollars shall be advanced to an Australia Borrower. If a Hong Kong Borrower becomes a Borrower pursuant to Section 5.01(r), all Advances in Hong Kong Dollars shall be made to the applicable Hong Kong Borrower. The liability of the Borrowers for the Obligations under the Loan Documents shall be joint and several.

SECTION 2.09 Increased Costs; Illegality. (a) Increased Costs. Subject to Section 2.09(b), the Borrowers shall, within two Business Days of a demand by the Administrative Agent, pay for the account of a Lender the amount of any Increased Costs incurred by such Lender or any of its Affiliates as a result of (i) the introduction of or any change in (or in the interpretation or application of) any law or regulation or (ii) compliance with any law or regulation, in each case made after the date that the applicable Lender became a party to this Agreement. This includes, without limitation, any law or regulation with regard to capital adequacy, prudential limits, liquidity, reserve assets or Tax. A Lender intending to make a claim pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall notify the Administrative Agent of the event giving rise to the claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers. Each Lender shall, as soon as practicable after a demand by the Administrative Agent, provide a certificate confirming the amount of its Increased Costs which shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b) Exceptions. Section 2.09(a) shall not apply to the extent any Increased Cost is (i) attributable to a Tax Deduction required by law to be made by a Loan Party, (ii) compensated for by Section 2.11(b) (or would have been compensated for under Section 2.11(b) but was not so compensated solely because one of the exclusions in clause (ii) of Section 2.11(b) applied) or (iii) attributable to the willful breach by the relevant Lender or its Affiliates of any law or regulation.

(c) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if it becomes unlawful (or impossible as a result of a change in law or regulation) in any jurisdiction for a Lender to perform any of its obligations as contemplated by any Loan Document or to fund or maintain its share of any Advance made pursuant to its Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment (i) such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent upon becoming aware of that event, (ii) upon the Administrative Agent notifying the Borrowers, the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment or the Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, of such Lender shall be immediately cancelled and (iii) the Borrowers shall repay such Lender’s participation in each Advance made to each Borrower pursuant to such Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, on (A)

 

41


the later of the last day of the current Interest Period for the Advance and the thirtieth day after the Administrative Agent has notified the Borrowers or (B) if earlier, the date specified by such Lender in the notice delivered to the Administrative Agent (being no earlier than the last day of any applicable grace period permitted by law).

SECTION 2.10 Payments and Computations. (a) Subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, the Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.13), not later than 11:00 A.M. (Singapore time) on the day when due in Singapore Dollars or Hong Kong Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Borrowers shall make each payment hereunder with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to, Advances denominated in Australian Dollars, irrespective of any right of counterclaim or set-off (except as otherwise provided in Section 2.13), not later than 11:00 A.M. (Sydney time) on the day when due in Australian Dollars to the Administrative Agent at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Account in same day funds, with payments being received by the Administrative Agent after such time being deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause like funds to be distributed (i) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of principal, interest, commitment fees or any other Obligation then payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents to more than one Lender, to such Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices ratably in accordance with the amounts of such respective Obligations then payable to such Lenders and in accordance with the applicable Standing Payment Instructions and (ii) if such payment by the Borrowers is in respect of any Obligation then payable hereunder to one Lender, to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon any Assuming Lender becoming a Lender hereunder as a result of a Commitment Increase pursuant to Section 2.16 or Reallocation pursuant to Section 2.18 and upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such Lender’s Assumption Agreement and recording of the information contained therein in the Register, from and after the applicable Increase Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under any other Loan Document issued in connection therewith in respect of the interest assumed thereby to such Assuming Lender in accordance with such Assuming Lender’s Standing Payment Instructions. From and after the Transfer Date, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of the interest assigned pursuant to the applicable Transfer Certificate to the Lender assignee thereunder in accordance with such Lender assignee’s Standing Payment Instructions, and the parties to such Transfer Certificate shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.

(b) The Borrowers hereby authorize each Lender and each of its Affiliates, if and to the extent payment owed to such Lender is not made when due under any Loan Document to charge from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, against any or all of the Borrowers’ accounts with such Lender any amount so due.

(c) All computations of interest and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 days, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fees are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of

 

42


interest or commitment fee, as the case may be; provided, however, that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any Advance to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to any Lender hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent any such Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount.

(f) To the extent that the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the amounts owing by the Borrowers under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document in currencies other than the currency or currencies required to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute funds to the Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to convert or exchange such funds into Singapore Dollars, into Hong Kong Dollars or into Australian Dollars or from Singapore Dollars to Australian Dollars or Hong Kong Dollars, from Hong Kong Dollars to Singapore Dollars or Australian Dollar or from Australian Dollars to Singapore Dollars or Hong Kong Dollars, as the case may be, to the extent necessary to enable the Administrative Agent to distribute such funds in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.10, provided that the Borrowers and each of the Lenders hereby agree that the Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible for any loss, cost or expense suffered by the Borrowers or such Lender as a result of any conversion or exchange of currencies effected pursuant to this Section 2.10(f) or as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to effect any such conversion or exchange; and provided further that the Borrowers agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and hold the Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless, for any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for any conversion or exchange of currencies (or the failure to convert or exchange any currencies) in accordance with this Section 2.10(f).

(g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth below in this Section 2.10(g). Payments to the Lenders shall be in accordance with the applicable Standing Payment Instructions. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Advances denominated in Australian Dollars and Hong Kong Dollars will automatically, on the date of such Event of Default, be converted on a notional basis into the Equivalent amount of Singapore Dollars solely for the purposes of making any allocations required under this Section 2.10(g) and Section 2.13(c). The order of priority shall be as follows:

(i) first, to the payment of all of the fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such fees, indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Administrative Agent on such date;

 

43


(ii) second, to the payment of all of the indemnification payments, costs and expenses that are due and payable to the Lenders under Section 9.04 and any similar section of any of the other Loan Documents on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such indemnification payments, costs and expenses owing to the Lenders on such date;

(iii) third, to the payment of all of the amounts that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Sections 2.09 and 2.11 on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts thereof owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date;

(iv) fourth, to the payment of all of the fees that are due and payable to the Lenders under Section 2.07(a) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate Commitments of the Lenders under the Facilities on such date;

(v) fifth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Obligations of the Borrowers under or in respect of the Loan Documents that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Section 2.06(b) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date;

(vi) sixth, to the payment of all of the accrued and unpaid interest on the Advances that is due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under Section 2.06(a) on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such interest owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date;

(vii) seventh, to the payment of the principal amount of all of the outstanding Advances that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such principal obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on such date; and

(viii) eighth, to the payment of all other Obligations of the Loan Parties owing under or in respect of the Loan Documents that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Parties on such date.

SECTION 2.11 Taxes (a) Tax Gross-Up. Each Loan Party shall make all payments to be made by it under the Loan Documents without any Tax Deduction unless a Tax Deduction is required by law. Any Borrower shall promptly upon becoming aware that any Loan Party must make a Tax Deduction (or that there is any change in the rate or the basis of a Tax Deduction) notify the Administrative Agent accordingly. If the Administrative Agent receives such notification from a Lender it shall notify the Borrowers. If a Tax Deduction is required by law to be made by a Loan Party, except in relation to a Tax described in Sections 2.11(b)(ii)(A), (B), (C) or (D), the applicable Loan Party shall pay an additional amount together with the payment so that, after making any Tax Deduction, the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the payment which would have been due if no Tax Deduction had been required. If a Loan Party is required to make a Tax Deduction, such Loan Party shall make such Tax Deduction and any payment required in connection with such Tax Deduction within the time allowed and in the amount required by law. Within thirty (30) days of making either a Tax Deduction or any payment required in connection with that Tax Deduction, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for the Administrative Agent and Lenders entitled to the payment, certified copies of official receipts evidencing the making of the Tax

 

44


Deduction or payment (as applicable), or, where the same are not available, other evidence satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, that the Tax Deduction has been made or (as applicable) any appropriate payment paid to the relevant taxing authority.

(b) Tax Indemnity. (i) The Borrowers shall (within two Business Days of demand by the Administrative Agent) pay to a Protected Party an amount equal to the Tax paid or payable by such Protected Party in respect of a Loan Document or a transaction or payment under it.

(ii) Section 2.11(b)(i) above shall not apply (A) with respect to any Tax assessed on the Administrative Agent or any Lender (1) under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is incorporated or, other than solely as a result of making Advances hereunder, the jurisdiction (or jurisdictions) in which it is otherwise conducting business or in which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is treated as resident for tax purposes or (2) under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Applicable Lending Office of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is located in respect of amounts received or receivable in that jurisdiction, if, in either case, such Tax is imposed on or calculated by reference to the net income received or receivable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, or such Tax is a franchise Tax imposed in lieu thereof or a branch profits Tax, (B) with respect to any withholding Tax imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of the Administrative Agent or any Lender at the time the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, becomes a party hereto (other than pursuant to a transfer of rights and obligations under Section 2.12(a)) or designates a new lending office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to Section 2.11(a) or (b), amounts with respect to such Tax was payable to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed its lending office, (C) with respect to any Tax attributable to any Lender’s failure or inability (other than any inability as a result of a change in law) to comply with Section 2.11(f), (D) with respect to any U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed pursuant to Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Internal Revenue Code (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), including any current or future implementing Treasury Regulations and administrative pronouncements thereunder (collectively, “FATCA”), or (E) to the extent the relevant loss, liability or cost is compensated for by an increased payment under Section 2.11(a).

(iii) A Protected Party making or intending to make a claim pursuant to Section 2.11(b)(i) above shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the event which will give, or has given, rise to the claim, following which the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers. A Protected Party shall, on receiving a payment from a Loan Party under this Section 2.11(b), notify the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that any delay in providing any such notice shall not affect any party’s rights or obligations hereunder.

(c) Tax Credit. If a Loan Party makes a Tax Payment and the Administrative Agent or any Lender receiving such Tax Payment determines in its absolute discretion, exercised in good faith, that (i) a Tax Credit is attributable to such Tax Payment and (ii) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, has obtained, utilized and retained that Tax Credit, then the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall pay an amount to such Loan Party which the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, determines in its absolute discretion, exercised in good faith, will leave it (after that payment) in the same after-Tax position as it would have been in had the circumstances not arisen which caused the Tax Payment to be required to be made by such Loan Party. No Protected Party shall be under any obligation to disclose any information regarding its Tax affairs or modify its Tax affairs as a result of this Section 2.11(c).

 

45


(d) Stamp Duties and Taxes. The Borrowers shall pay and, within two (2) Business Days of demand, indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender against any cost, loss or liability that the Administrative Agent or any such Lender incurs in relation to any present or future stamp duty, documentary, excise, property, intangible, mortgage recording, registration or similar taxes, charges or levies payable in respect of any Facility or any Loan Document.

(e) Indirect Tax. All payments to be made by the Loan Parties under or in connection with the Loan Documents have been calculated without regard to Indirect Tax. If all or part of any such payment is the consideration for a taxable supply or chargeable with Indirect Tax then, when the applicable Loan Party makes the payment (i) it must pay to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Lenders, as the case may be, an additional amount equal to that payment (or part) multiplied by the appropriate rate of Indirect Tax and (ii) the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, shall promptly provide to the applicable Loan Party a tax invoice complying with the relevant law relating to such Indirect Tax. Where a Loan Document requires a Loan Party to reimburse the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, for any costs or expenses, such Loan Party shall also at the same time pay and indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, against all Indirect Tax incurred by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, in respect of the costs or expenses, save to the extent that that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, is entitled to repayment or credit in respect of the Indirect Tax. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, will promptly provide to the applicable Loan Party a tax invoice complying with the relevant law relating to that Indirect Tax.

(f) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by any Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by a Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable such Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to U.S. backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Sections 2.11(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) shall deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

 

46


(B) any Lender that is not a U.S. person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code) (such Lender, a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of any Borrower or the Administrative Agent), one of the following:

(1) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax with respect to payments received under any Loan Document;

(2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall be obliged to take any steps under Section 2.12(a) if, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent or such Lender (acting reasonably), to do so might be prejudicial to it.

SECTION 2.16 Increase in the Aggregate Commitments. (a) The Borrowers may, at any time by written notice to the Administrative Agent, request an increase in the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments by not less than S$5,000,000 in the aggregate (each such proposed increase, a “Commitment Increase”) to be effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the scheduled Termination Date then in effect (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Commitments at any time exceed S$245,000,000, (ii) on the date of any request by the Borrowers for a Commitment Increase and on the related Increase Date, the conditions set forth in Sections 3.01(a)(i) and 3.02 shall be satisfied and (iii) the Borrowers’ notice to the Administrative Agent shall indicate the proposed allocation of each such Commitment Increase between the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments (the “Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase”) and the Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments (the “Australian Dollar Commitment Increase”).

If the Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to increase the amount of their respective Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase, the requested Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase shall be allocated to each Lender willing to participate therein in an amount equal to the Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase multiplied by the ratio of each Lender’s Increased Singapore Dollar Commitment Amount to the aggregate amount of all Increased Singapore Dollar Commitment Amounts. If the Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that they are willing to increase the amount of their respective Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments by an aggregate amount that exceeds the amount of the requested Australian Dollar Commitment Increase, the requested Australian Dollar Commitment Increase shall be allocated to each Lender willing to participate therein in an amount equal to the Australian Dollar Commitment Increase multiplied by the ratio of each Lender’s Increased Australian Dollar Commitment Amount to the aggregate amount of all Increased Australian Dollar Commitment Amounts.

 

51


(c) Promptly following each Commitment Date, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers as to the amount, if any, by which the Lenders are willing to participate in the requested Commitment Increase. If (i) the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in any requested Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase on any such Commitment Date is less than the requested Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase or (ii) the aggregate amount by which the Lenders are willing to participate in any requested Australian Dollar Commitment Increase on any such Commitment Date is less than the requested Australian Dollar Commitment Increase, then, in either case, the Borrowers may extend offers to one or more Eligible Assignees to participate in any portion of the requested Commitment Increase that has not been committed to by the Lenders as of the applicable Commitment Date; provided, however, that the Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of S$5,000,000 or an integral multiple of S$1,000,000 in excess thereof, or, if less than S$5,000,000, the amount of the requested Commitment Increase that has not been committed to by the Lenders as of the applicable Commitment Date.

(d) On each Increase Date, each Eligible Assignee that accepts an offer to participate in a requested Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.16(c) (an “Assuming Lender”) shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment, as the case may be, of each Increasing Lender for such requested Commitment Increase shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.16(b)) as of such Increase Date; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:

(i) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (each, an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Assuming Lender, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers; and

(ii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment (and the allocation thereof between its Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment and its Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment) in a writing satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.

On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.16(d), the Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Borrowers, on or before 11:00 A.M. (Singapore time), by telecopier or telex, of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date.

(e) On the Increase Date, to the extent the Advances then outstanding and owed to any Singapore Dollar Revolving Lender immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase shall be less than such Lender’s Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share (calculated immediately following the effectiveness of such Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase) of all Advances then outstanding that are owed to Singapore Dollar Revolving Lenders (each such Lender, including any Assuming Lender, a “Singapore Dollar Purchasing Lender”), then such Singapore Dollar Purchasing Lender, without executing a Transfer Certificate, shall be deemed to have purchased an assignment of a pro rata portion of the Advances then outstanding and owed to each Singapore Dollar Revolving Lender that is not a Singapore Dollar Purchasing Lender (a “Singapore Dollar Selling Lender”) in an amount sufficient such that following the effectiveness of all such assignments the Advances outstanding and owed to each Singapore Dollar Revolving Lender shall equal such Lender’s

 

52


Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share (calculated immediately following the effectiveness of such Singapore Dollar Commitment Increase on the Increase Date) of all Advances then outstanding and owed to all Singapore Dollar Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall calculate the net amount to be paid by each Singapore Dollar Purchasing Lender and received by each Singapore Dollar Selling Lender in connection with the assignments effected hereunder on the Increase Date. Each Singapore Dollar Purchasing Lender shall make the amount of its required payment available to the Administrative Agent, in same day funds, at the office of the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 P.M. (Singapore time) on the Increase Date. The Administrative Agent shall distribute on the Increase Date the proceeds of such amount to each of the Singapore Dollar Selling Lenders entitled to receive such payments at its Applicable Lending Office.

(f) On the Increase Date, to the extent the Advances then outstanding and owed to any Australian Dollar Revolving Lender immediately prior to the effectiveness of the Australian Dollar Commitment Increase shall be less than such Lender’s Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share (calculated immediately following the effectiveness of such Australian Dollar Commitment Increase) of all Advances then outstanding that are owed to Australian Dollar Revolving Lenders (each such Lender, including any Assuming Lender, an “Australian Dollar Purchasing Lender”), then such Australian Dollar Purchasing Lender, without executing a Transfer Certificate, shall be deemed to have purchased an assignment of a pro rata portion of the Advances then outstanding and owed to each Australian Dollar Revolving Lender that is not an Australian Dollar Purchasing Lender (an “Australian Dollar Selling Lender”) in an amount sufficient such that following the effectiveness of all such assignments the Advances outstanding and owed to each Australian Dollar Revolving Lender shall equal such Lender’s Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share (calculated immediately following the effectiveness of such Australian Dollar Commitment Increase on the Increase Date) of all Advances then outstanding and owed to all Australian Dollar Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall calculate the net amount to be paid by each Australian Dollar Purchasing Lender and received by each Australian Dollar Selling Lender in connection with the assignments effected hereunder on the Increase Date. Each Australian Dollar Purchasing Lender shall make the amount of its required payment available to the Administrative Agent, in same day funds, at the office of the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 P.M. (Sydney time) on the Increase Date. The Administrative Agent shall distribute on the Increase Date the proceeds of such amount to each of the Australian Dollar Selling Lenders entitled to receive such payments at its Applicable Lending Office.

(g) If in connection with the transactions described in this Section 2.16 any Lender shall incur any losses, costs or expenses of the type described in Section 9.04(c), then the Borrowers shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for such losses, costs or expenses reasonably incurred.

SECTION 2.17 Defaulting Lenders. (a) If a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, the following provisions shall apply with respect to any outstanding Facility Exposure of such Defaulting Lender:

(i) the Facility Exposure of such Defaulting Lender will, subject to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in the same Facility as the Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments in such Facility, provided that (A) the sum of each Non-Defaulting Lender’s total Facility Exposure may not in any event exceed the Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender with respect to the applicable Facility as in effect at the time of such reallocation and (b) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto will constitute a waiver or release

 

53


of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender or cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender;

(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s Facility Exposure cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrowers will, not later than three Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion to protect the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender; and

(iii) any amount paid by a Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account until (subject to Section 2.17(b)) the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: first to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, second to the payment of post-default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders in respect of the applicable Facility, other than Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, third to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders hereunder in respect of the applicable Facility, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fourth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of the applicable Facility, and fifth after the termination of the Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(b) If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their discretion that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par such portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders in the same Facility and/or make such other adjustments as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or the Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of the Lenders to be on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and such Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of each Lender will automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing), provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender.

Except during the continuance of an Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor may receive payments in the ordinary course of business from any other Loan Party on account of the Subordinated Obligations. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), however, unless the Administrative Agent otherwise agrees, no Guarantor shall demand, accept or take any action to collect any payment on account of the Subordinated Obligations.

(d) Turn-Over. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (including the commencement and continuation of any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law relating to any other Loan Party), each Guarantor shall, if the Administrative Agent so requests, collect, enforce and receive payments on account of the Subordinated Obligations as trustee for the Lender Parties and deliver such payments to the Administrative Agent on account of the Guaranteed Obligations (including all Post Petition Interest), together with any necessary endorsements or other instruments of transfer, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty.

(e) Administrative Agent Authorization.

(ii) that the realizable value of such Guarantor’s assets, excluding the amount of any financial assistance in the form of a loan or in the form of assets pledged or encumbered to secure the Guaranty, after giving the financial assistance, would be less than the aggregate of such Guarantor’s liabilities and stated capital of all classes.

(c) France: (i) The liability of any Guarantor incorporated under the laws of France (a “French Guarantor”) under this Article VII and under any indemnities contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not include any obligation or liability which, if incurred, would constitute the provision of financial assistance within the meaning of Article L.255 216 of the French Code de Commerce or/and would constitute a misuse of corporate assets within the meaning of Article L.241 3 or L.242 6 of the French Code de Commerce or any other law or regulation having the same effect, as interpreted by the French courts.

(ii) The Guaranteed Obligations of each French Guarantor under this Article VII shall be limited at any time to an amount equal to the aggregate of all Advances to the extent directly or indirectly on-lent to such French Guarantor under an intercompany loan agreement (each a “Qualified French Intercompany Loan”) and outstanding at the date a payment is made by such French Guarantor under this Article VII, it being specified that any payment made by such French Guarantor under this Article VII in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations shall reduce pro tanto the outstanding amount of the applicable Intercompany Loan due by such French Guarantor.

(f) Singapore: The liability of each Guarantor incorporated under the laws of Singapore under this Article VII and under any indemnities contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall

ARTICLE VIII

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 8.01 Authorization and Action. Each Lender (in its capacities as a Lender and a Swing Line Bank (if applicable) and on behalf of itself and its Affiliates as potential Hedge Banks) hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of the Advances), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that exposes it to personal liability or that is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by each Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, no Person identified as a syndication agent, documentation agent, senior manager, coordinating bank, arranger or joint book running manager, in such Person’s capacity as such, shall have any obligations or duties to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender Party under any of such Loan Documents. Each initial Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver the Post-Closing Letter Agreement on behalf of such Lender.

SECTION 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it or them under or in connection with the Loan Documents, except for its or their own

 

91


gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (a) in the case of the Administrative Agent, may treat each Lender and its applicable interest in each Advance described in the Register as conclusive until the Administrative Agent receives and accepts an Assumption Agreement entered into by an Assuming Lender as provided in Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, a Transfer Certificate entered into by the Lender, as assignor, and an Eligible Assignee, as assignee, or, in the case of any other Agent, such Agent has received notice from the Administrative Agent that it has received and accepted such Assumption Agreement or Transfer Certificate, as the case may be, in each case as provided in Section 9.07; (b) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for any Loan Party), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts; (c) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with the Loan Documents; (d) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance, observance or satisfaction of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of any Loan Document on the part of any Loan Party or the existence at any time of any Default under the Loan Documents or to inspect the property (including the books and records) of any Loan Party; (e) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (f) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telegram, telecopy or telex or other electronic communication) believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties; (g) 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, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Bankruptcy Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Bankruptcy Law; and (h) may act in relation to the Loan Documents through its officers, agents and employees. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of its delegates or agents or for supervising them; provided, however, that nothing in this sentence shall absolve the Administrative Agent for any liability found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

SECTION 8.03 CIL and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitments and the Advances made by it, CIL shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents 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, include CIL in its individual capacity. CIL and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as trustee under indentures of, accept investment banking engagements from and generally engage in any kind of business with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary of any Loan Party and any Person that may do business with or own securities of any Loan Party or any such Subsidiary, all as if CIL were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.04 Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

 

92


SECTION 8.05 Indemnification by Lenders. (a) Each Lender severally agrees to indemnify the Agents (to the extent not promptly reimbursed by the Borrowers) from and against such Lender’s ratable share (determined as provided below) of any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Agents in any way relating to or arising out of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by the Agents under the Loan Documents (collectively, the “Indemnified Costs”); provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from either Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Agents promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any costs and expenses (including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel) payable by the Borrowers under Section 9.04, to the extent that the Agents are not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrowers. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Costs, this Section 8.05 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person.

(b) For purposes of this Section 8.05, the Lenders’ respective ratable shares of any amount shall be determined, at any time, according to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments at such time. The failure of any Lender to reimburse the Agents promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any amount required to be paid by the Lenders to the Agents as provided herein shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to reimburse the Agents for its ratable share of such amount, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to reimburse the Agents for such other Lender’s ratable share of such amount. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Lender hereunder, the agreement and obligations of each Lender contained in this Section 8.05 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment will be converted by the Administrative Agent on a notional basis into the Equivalent amount of Singapore Dollars solely for the purposes of making any allocations required under this Section 8.05(b).

SECTION 8.06 Successor Administrative Agents. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the Required Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Agent, which appointment shall, provided that no Default has occurred and is continuing, be subject to the consent of the Operating Partnership, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation or the Required Lenders’ removal of the retiring Agent, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be (x) a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or of any State thereof and having a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$250,000,000 or (y) one of the existing Lenders, provided that such Lender has a combined capital and surplus of at least U.S.$250,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents. If within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Agent’s resignation or removal under this Section 8.06 no successor Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Agent’s resignation or removal shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Agent under the Loan Documents until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Agent as provided above.

 

93


After any retiring Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder as an Agent shall have become effective, the provisions of this Article VIII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 9.01 Amendments, Etc. (a) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided, however, that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders, do any of the following at any time: (i) change the number of Lenders or the percentage of (x) the Commitments or (y) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Advances that, in each case, shall be required for the Lenders or any of them to take any action hereunder, (ii) release any Borrower with respect to the Obligations or reduce or limit the obligations of any Guarantor under Article VII or release such Guarantor or otherwise limit such Guarantor’s liability with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations (except as otherwise permitted under the Loan Documents), (iii) amend this Section 9.01, (iv) increase the Commitments of the Lenders or subject the Lenders to any additional obligations (except, in each case, to the extent contemplated in Section 2.16 or 2.18), (v) reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances (except to the extent of any reduction resulting from a Reallocation effected pursuant to Section 2.18), or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, (vi) postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or (vii) extend the Termination Date; provided further that no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by (A) the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents and (B) each Swing Line Bank in addition to the Lenders required above to take such action, affect the rights or obligations of the Swing Line Bank under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(b) In the event that any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) shall refuse to consent to a waiver or amendment to, or a departure from, the provisions of this Agreement which requires the consent of all Lenders and that has been consented to by the Required Lenders, then the Borrowers shall have the right, upon written demand to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Administrative Agent given within 30 days after the first date on which such consent was solicited in writing from the Lenders by the Administrative Agent (a “Consent Request Date”), to cause such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitment or Commitments, the Advances owing to it) to an Eligible Assignee designated by the Operating Partnership and approved by the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) (a “Replacement Lender”), provided that (i) as of such Consent Request Date, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) as of the date of the Borrowers’ written demand to replace such Non-Consenting Lender, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing other than a Default or Event of Default that resulted solely from the subject matter of the waiver or amendment for which such consent was being solicited from the Lenders by the Administrative Agent. The Replacement Lender shall purchase such interests of the Non-Consenting Lender at par and shall assume the rights and obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender under this Agreement upon execution by the Replacement Lender of a Transfer Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 9.07, however the Non-Consenting Lender shall be entitled to indemnification as otherwise provided in this Agreement with respect to any events occurring prior to such assignment. Any Lender that becomes a Non-Consenting Lender agrees that, upon receipt of notice from the Borrowers given in accordance with this Section 9.01(b) it shall promptly execute and deliver a Transfer Certificate with a Replacement

 

94


Lender as contemplated by this Section. The execution and delivery of any such Transfer Certificate shall not be deemed to comprise a waiver of claims against any Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent or a waiver of any claims against the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent by the Non-Consenting Lender.

(c) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender will not be entitled to vote in respect of amendments and waivers hereunder and the Commitment and the outstanding Advances such Lender hereunder will not be taken into account in determining whether the Requisite Lenders or all of the Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment or waiver (and the definition of “Required Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided, however that any such amendment or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing of such Lender’s e-mail address to which a Notice may be sent by electronic transmission (including by electronic communication) on or before the date such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record an effective e-mail address for such Lender) and (ii) that any Notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

SECTION 9.03 No Waiver; Remedies. No failure on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 9.04 Costs and Expenses. (a) Each Loan Party agrees jointly and severally to pay on demand (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, (A) all due diligence, collateral review, syndication, transportation, computer, duplication, appraisal, audit, insurance, consultant, search, filing and recording

(b) Each Loan Party agrees to indemnify, defend and save and hold harmless each Indemnified Party from and against, and shall pay on demand, any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Party, in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of (including, without limitation, in connection with any investigation, litigation or proceeding or preparation of a defense in connection therewith) (i) the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated thereby or (ii) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on any property of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or any Environmental Action relating in any way to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is found in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 9.04(b) applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, shareholders or creditors or an Indemnified Party, whether or not any Indemnified Party is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are consummated. Each Loan Party also agrees not to assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates, or any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages arising out of or otherwise relating to the Facilities, the actual or proposed use of the proceeds of the Advances, the Loan Documents or any of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

(c) If any payment of principal of any Advance is made by a Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Advance, as a result of a payment pursuant to Section 2.05, 2.09(c), 2.16(e), 2.16(f) or 2.18(d), acceleration of the maturity of the Advances pursuant to Section 6.01 or for any other reason, or if a Borrower fails to make any payment or prepayment of an Advance for which a notice of prepayment has been given or that is otherwise required to be made, whether pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.04 or 6.01 or otherwise, such Borrower shall, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or expenses that it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or such failure to pay or prepay, as the case may be, including, without limitation, any loss, cost or expense

 

97


incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Advance.

(d) If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it under any Loan Document, including, without limitation, fees and expenses of counsel and indemnities, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, in its sole discretion.

(e) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, the agreements and obligations of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties contained in Sections 2.09 and 2.11, Section 7.06 and this Section 9.04 shall survive the payment in full of principal, interest and all other amounts payable hereunder and under any of the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.05 Right of Set-off. Upon (a) the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and (b) the making of the request or the granting of the consent specified by Section 6.01 to authorize the Administrative Agent to declare the Advances due and payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.01, the Administrative Agent and each Lender and each of their respective Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and otherwise apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrowers or any other Loan Party against any and all of the Obligations of the Borrowers or such Loan Party now or hereafter existing under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrowers or such Loan Party after any such set-off and application; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective Affiliates under this Section 9.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) that such Agent, such Lender and their respective Affiliates may have. If any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.

SECTION 9.06 Binding Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Borrowers, each Guarantor named on the signature pages hereto and the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by each Initial Lender that such Initial Lender has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrowers, the Guarantors named on the signature pages hereto and the Administrative Agent and each Lender and their respective successors and assigns, except that neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall have the right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein without the prior written consent of the Lenders.

SECTION 9.07 Assignments and Participations. (a) Each Lender may (and, if demanded by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 9.01(b) will) assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitment or Commitments and the Advances owing to it); provided, however, that (i) each such assignment shall be of a uniform, and not a varying, percentage of all rights

 

98


and obligations under and in respect of one or more of the Facilities (and any assignment of (A) an Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment (or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Advance) must be made to an Eligible Assignee that is capable of lending in Australian Dollars and (B) a Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Commitment (or Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Advance) must be made to an Eligible Assignee that is capable of lending in Singapore Dollars and Hong Kong Dollars, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Person that, immediately prior to such assignment, was a Lender, an Affiliate of any Lender or a Fund Affiliate of any Lender or an assignment of all of a Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, the aggregate amount of the Commitments being assigned to such Eligible Assignee pursuant to such assignment (determined as of the Transfer Date with respect to such assignment) shall in no event be less than S$5,000,000 under each Facility or an integral multiple of S$1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as shall be approved by the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of effectiveness of such assignment, the Operating Partnership), (iii) each such assignment shall be to an Eligible Assignee, (iv) no such assignments shall be permitted (A) until the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Lenders that syndication of the Commitments hereunder has been completed, without the consent of the Administrative Agent, and (B) at any other time without the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), (v) each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.01(b) shall be an assignment of all rights and obligations of the assigning Lender under this Agreement and (vi) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording in the Register, a Transfer Certificate and, except if such assignment is being made by a Lender to an Affiliate or Fund Affiliate of such Lender, a processing and recordation fee of S$4,000; provided, however, that for each such assignment made as a result of a demand by the Borrowers pursuant to Section 9.01(b), the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent the applicable processing and recordation fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such assignment will be made by any Lender to any Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender or any of their respective Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this sentence.

(b) Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the Transfer Date, (i) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Transfer Certificate, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (ii) the Lender assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Transfer Certificate, relinquish its rights (other than its rights under Sections 2.09, 2.11, 7.06, 8.05 and 9.04 to the extent any claim thereunder relates to an event arising prior to such assignment) and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of a Transfer Certificate covering all of the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Each party to this Agreement, other than the assignor Lender and the Operating Partnership (to the extent that the Operating Partnership’s consent is required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement), irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute any Transfer Certificate on its behalf.

(c) By executing and delivering a Transfer Certificate, each Lender assignor thereunder and each assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties thereto and hereto as follows: (i) except as otherwise agreed to in writing by the assigning Lender, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with any Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of, or the perfection or priority of any lien or security interest created or purported to be created under or in connection with, any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (ii) such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations

 

99


under any Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant thereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the financial statements referred to in Section 4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Transfer Certificate; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such assignee confirms that it is an Eligible Assignee; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers and discretion under the Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations that by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Borrowers shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 9.02 a copy of each Transfer Certificate delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment under each Facility of, and principal amount of the Advances owing under each Facility to, each Lender from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Upon its receipt of a Transfer Certificate executed by an assigning Lender, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Transfer Certificate has been completed and is in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto, (i) accept such Transfer Certificate, (ii) record the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt notice thereof to the Borrowers and each other Agent.

(f) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Advances previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent and each other Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full Singapore Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share or Australian Dollar Revolving Credit Pro Rata Share, as applicable, of all Advances in the applicable Facility. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this Section 9.07(f), then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(g) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more Persons (other than any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates) in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, all or a portion of its Commitments and the Advances owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including, without limitation, its Commitments) shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and

 

100


the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (iv) no participant under any such participation shall have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, or postpone any date fixed for any payment of principal of, or interest on, the Advances or any fees or other amounts payable hereunder, in each case to the extent subject to such participation, and (v) if, at the time of such sale, such Lender was entitled to payments under Section 2.11 in respect of withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Tax shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includable in Tax) withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to such participant on such date, provided that such participant complies with the requirements of Section 2.11 as if it were a Lender.

(h) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.07, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to the Borrowers furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrowers; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information received by it from such Lender.

(i) (i) If a Lender changes its name it shall, at its own costs and within seven (7) Business Days from the date of the name change, provide and deliver to the Administrative Agent an original or certified true copy of a legal opinion issued by the legal advisers to such Lender in the jurisdiction where such Lender is incorporated, addressed to the Administrative Agent (in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent): (A) identifying the Lender which has changed its name, its new name, the date from which the change has taken effect; and (B) confirming that the Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents remain legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations even after the change of name.

(ii) If a Lender is involved in a corporate reorganization or reconstruction, it shall at its own costs and within seven (7) Business Days from the effective date of such corporate reorganization or reconstruction, provide and deliver to the Administrative Agent: (A) an original or certified true copy of a legal opinion issued by the legal advisers to such Lender in each of the jurisdictions where such Lender is incorporated and where the Lender’s lending office is located; (B) an original or certified true copy of a legal opinion issued by the legal advisers to such Lender in each of those jurisdictions governing the Loan Documents; and (C) confirming that such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents remain legal, valid and binding obligations enforceable as against the surviving entity after the corporate reorganization or reconstruction.

(iii) If a Lender fails to provide and deliver to the Administrative Agent any of the legal opinions referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above, it shall upon the request of the Administrative Agent, sign and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Transfer Certificate, transferring all its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to the new entity.

(j) Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Advances owing to it), including in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall disclose any Confidential Information to any Person without the consent of the Borrower to which such Confidential Information relates, other than (a) to such Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s Affiliates, head office, branches and representative offices, and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors and to actual or prospective Eligible Assignees and participants, and then only on a confidential basis, (b) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (c) as requested or required by any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating such Lender, (d) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any Confidential Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Lender, and (e) to any service provider of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, provided that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made pursuant to this clause (e) will be informed of the confidential nature of such Confidential Information and shall have agreed in writing to keep such Confidential Information confidential. Notwithstanding any other provision in this agreement or any other document, the parties hereby agree that each party (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each party) may each disclose to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the United States tax treatment and United States tax structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to each party relating to such United States tax treatment and United States tax structure.

SECTION 9.10 Anti-Money Laundering Notification. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Loan Parties that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) and other anti-money laundering and anti-terrorism laws and regulations, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act and such other laws and regulations. The REIT, the Operating Partnership and the Borrowers shall, and shall cause each of their Subsidiaries to, provide, to the extent commercially reasonable, such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lenders in order to assist the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in maintaining compliance with the Patriot Act and such other laws and regulations.

(b) Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to which it is a party in any New York State or Federal court.

(a) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in Singapore Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars or Australian Dollars into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase Singapore Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars or Australian Dollars, as applicable, with such other currency at Citibank N.A.’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(b) If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder in a foreign currency into Singapore Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars or Australian Dollars, the parties agree to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase such foreign currency with Singapore Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars or Australian Dollars, as applicable, at Citibank N.A.’s principal office in London at 11:00 A.M. (London time) on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

(c) The obligation of the Loan Parties in respect of any sum due from it in any currency (the “Primary Currency”) to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any other currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (including by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Lender, as the case may be), of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the applicable Primary Currency with such other currency. If the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased is less than such sum due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, each Loan Party agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case

 

103


may be) against such loss, and if the amount of the applicable Primary Currency so purchased exceeds such sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) in the applicable Primary Currency, such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) agrees to promptly remit to the applicable Loan Party such excess.

SECTION 9.14 Change in Currency. If a change in Australian Dollars, Hong Kong Dollars, Singapore Dollars or United States Dollars occurs pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation of any governmental, monetary or multi-national authority, this Agreement will be amended to the extent determined by the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably and in consultation with the Borrowers) to be necessary to reflect the change in currency and to put the Lenders and the Borrowers in the same position, so far as possible, that they would have been in if no change in such currency had occurred.

SECTION 9.15 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE BORROWERS, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, THE ADVANCES OR THE ACTIONS OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.
