-42-

For purposes of any determination under Section 6.04 or 6.05, the amount of each payment, disposition or other applicable transaction denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars at the currency exchange rate in effect on the date of the consummation thereof. Such currency exchange rates shall be the applicable rate set forth at approximately 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on such day on the applicable page of the Bloomberg Service (or any other comparable service) reporting the exchange rates for such currency, as determined in good faith by the Parent.

Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time), twenty (20) Business Days prior to the date of the desired LC Credit Extension (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank in their sole discretion). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such Issuing Bank thereof. Each Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time), ten (10) Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency. Any failure by an Issuing Bank to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such Issuing Bank to permit Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrower and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an Additional Currency under this Section 1.06, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrower.

Section 1.07 Miscellaneous. Any terms used in this Agreement that are defined in Article 9 of the UCC shall have the meanings assigned to those terms by the UCC as of the date of this Agreement.

(a) Revolving Advances. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make advances (each such advance, a “Revolving Advance”) to the Borrower in Dollars from time to time, on any Business Day, in the case of each Non-Extending Revolving Lender, during the Revolving Availability Period, and in the case of each Extending Revolving Lender, during the Extended Revolving Availability Period, in each case, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, at any time, the lesser of (i) such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (ii) such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Revolving Sublimit; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Revolving Borrowing and the application of proceeds thereof, (A) the Revolving Outstanding Amount shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, (B) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Advances of any Revolving Lender plus such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Letter of Credit Exposure shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment, (C) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Revolving Advances shall not exceed the Revolving Sublimit and (D) in the case of any Revolving Borrowing made after the Restatement Effective Date (other than any Specified Revolving Borrowing made before the New Revolving Availability Trigger Date), the aggregate principal amount of such Revolving Borrowing, when taken together with the aggregate then outstanding principal amount of all other Revolving Borrowings made after the Restatement Effective Date (other than any Specified Revolving Borrowing made before the New Revolving Availability Trigger Date) shall not (unless consented to in writing by the Majority Revolving Lenders) exceed the New Revolving Borrowing Availability Amount in effect at such time. Within the limits of each Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and the Revolving Sublimit, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.01(a), prepay under Section 2.08, and reborrow under this Section 2.01(a). Revolving Advances may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

 

-44-


(b) Term Loans. All Term Borrowings outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date (the “Existing Term Loans”) shall remain outstanding pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth herein. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may prepay the Existing Term Loans but no amount paid or repaid with respect to the Existing Term Loans may be reborrowed. Existing Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

(c) Incremental Term Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Incremental Term Lender severally agrees to make a loan (each such loan, an “Incremental Term Loan” and, together with the Existing Term Loans, the “Term Loans”) to the Borrower in Dollars on the Restatement Effective Date, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed such Term Lender’s Incremental Term Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may prepay the Incremental Term Loans but no amount paid or repaid with respect to the Incremental Term Loans may be reborrowed. Incremental Term Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.

Section 2.02 Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a) Notice. Each Borrowing shall be made pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing and given (i) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day before the date of the proposed Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and (ii) by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) in the case of Base Rate Loans; provided that any Notice of Borrowing of Incremental Term Loans may be given at any time not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the Restatement Effective Date. The Administrative Agent shall give each Applicable Lender prompt notice on the day of receipt of timely Notice of Borrowing of such proposed Borrowing by facsimile. Each Notice of Borrowing shall be by facsimile or telephone confirmed promptly in writing or by electronic communication (e-mail) receipt of which is confirmed by the Administrative Agent by facsimile or telephone, in any event, specifying the (A) requested date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (B) requested Type and Class of Loans comprising such Borrowing, (C) aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing, and (D) if such Borrowing is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Interest Period for such Loans. In the case of a proposed Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Applicable Lender of the applicable interest rate under Section 2.09, as applicable. Each Applicable Lender shall, before 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.02 or such other location as the Administrative Agent may specify by notice to the Applicable Lenders, in Same Day Funds, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.02 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 3.01), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent by wire transfer of such funds in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

 

-45-


(b) Conversions and Continuations. Each Revolving Advance and Term Loan initially shall be of the Type and, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Incremental Term Loan shall be allocated to, and shall constitute a part of, each then outstanding Term Borrowing on a pro rata basis, even though as a result thereof such Incremental Term Loan, to the extent allocated to any Term Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, may effectively have a shorter Interest Period than the Existing Term Loans comprising such Term Borrowing (and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement that would prohibit such an allocation (or any resulting Term Borrowing) or such an initial Interest Period). Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to Convert or Continue Revolving Advances and Term Loans, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Loan. In order to elect to Convert or Continue Loans under this Section, the Borrower shall deliver an irrevocable Notice of Conversion or Continuation to the Administrative Agent at its Applicable Lending Office no later than (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date (which shall be a Business Day) of the requested Conversion in the case of a Conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan or (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the date (which shall be a Business Day) of the requested Conversion or Continuation in the case of a Conversion into, or a Continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. Each such Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be by facsimile or telephone confirmed promptly in writing or by electronic communication (e-mail) receipt of which is confirmed by the Administrative Agent by facsimile or telephone, in any event, specifying (A) the requested Conversion or Continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), (B) the principal amount, Class, and Type of the Loan to be Converted or Continued, (C) whether a Conversion or Continuation is requested, and if a Conversion, into what Type of Loan, and (D) in the case of a Conversion to, or a Continuation of, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall provide each Applicable Lender with a copy thereof and, in the case of a Conversion to or a Continuation of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, notify each Applicable Lender of the interest rate under Section 2.09. Any election to Convert or Continue any portion of any Loan that comprises part of any Borrowing shall be deemed to constitute an election so to Convert or Continue a corresponding portion of each other Loan that comprises part of such Borrowing and, for purposes other than the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, the portion of Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing that are so Converted or Continued shall constitute a new Borrowing.

(c) Certain Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in paragraphs (a) and (b) above:

(i) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof; provided that a Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans that results from a Continuation of an outstanding Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans may be in an aggregate principal amount that is equal to the aggregate principal amount of such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each Borrowing comprised of Base Rate Loans is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $1,000,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof; provided that any such Borrowing comprised of Revolving Advances may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused amount of the aggregate Revolving Commitments.

 

-46-


(ii) At no time shall there be more than ten (10) Interest Periods applicable to outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans hereunder.

(iii) If an Event of Default under Section 7.01(e) has occurred and is continuing, or if any other Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of a Majority Lenders, has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Default or Event of Default, then, in each such case, so long as such Event of Default or such Default or Event of Default is continuing, no outstanding Loans may be Converted to or Continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans.

(iv) If any Lender shall, at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of any Borrowing comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that any Change in Law makes it unlawful, or that any central bank or other Governmental Authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Applicable Lending Office to perform its obligations under this Agreement to make Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or take deposits of, Dollars in the London interbank market, then (1) such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Loan of such Lender, (2) such Base Rate Loan shall be considered part of the same Borrowing and interest on such Base Rate Loan shall be due and payable at the same time that interest on the Eurocurrency Rate Loans comprising the remainder of such Borrowing shall be due and payable, and (3) any obligation of such Lender to make, Continue, or Convert to, Eurocurrency Rate Loans, including in connection with such requested Borrowing, shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Each Lender agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policies and subject to legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this paragraph, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

(v) If the Administrative Agent is unable to determine the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans comprising any requested Borrowing, the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Rate Loans for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Applicable Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Loan comprising such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.

(vi) If the Majority Lenders shall, by 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least one (1) Business Day before the date of any requested Borrowing, notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurocurrency Rate for Eurocurrency Rate Loans comprising such

 

-47-


Borrowing will not adequately reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or funding their respective Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as the case may be, for such Borrowing, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders and the right of the Borrower to select Eurocurrency Rate Loans for such Borrowing or for any subsequent Borrowing shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, and each Loan comprising such Borrowing shall be made as a Base Rate Loan.

(vii) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration or Continuation of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Loan in accordance with the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01 and paragraph (a) or (b) above, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Applicable Lenders and such affected Loans will be made available to the Borrower on the date of such Borrowing as Base Rate Loans or, if such affected Loans are existing Loans, will be Converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of Interest Period then in effect.

(viii) Revolving Advances may only be Converted or Continued as Revolving Advances, and Term Loans may only be Converted or Continued as Term Loans.

(d) Notices Irrevocable. Each Notice of Borrowing and Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower. In the case of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Borrower shall indemnify each Lender against any loss, out-of-pocket cost or expense (other than any anticipated lost profits) actually incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the requested date of such Borrowing specified in such Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost or expense actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

(e) Lender Obligations Several. The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing. No Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(f) Funding by Lenders; Administrative Agents’ Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date (or in the case of Base Rate Loans, the proposed time) of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Applicable Percentage available in accordance with and at the time required in Section 2.02(a) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its Applicable Percentage of such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the

 

-48-


Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to the requested Borrowing. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its Applicable Percentage of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (f) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Section 2.03 Letters of Credit.

(a) Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (i) each Issuing Bank agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.03, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the LC Availability Termination Date, to issue, increase, or extend the expiration date of Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of the Borrower or the Parent or any other Subsidiary (in which case the Borrower and the Parent or such other Subsidiary shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in accordance with subsection (b) below, and (ii) the Revolving Lenders severally agree to participate in Letters of Credit and any LC Disbursements thereunder; provided that, after giving effect to any LC Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit, (A) the Revolving Outstanding Amount shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments, and (B) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances of any Revolving Lender plus such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Letter of Credit Exposure shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Each request by the Borrower for an LC Credit Extension shall be deemed to be a representation by the Borrower that the LC Credit Extension so requested complies with the conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly the Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. Immediately upon the issuance or increase of each Letter of Credit (including the deemed issuance of the Existing Letters of Credit), each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the applicable Issuing Bank a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage times the amount of such Letter of Credit (or such increase); provided that on the Revolving Maturity Date, the participations granted to and acquired by the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders shall be reallocated among the Extending Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with such Extending Revolving Lenders’ respective Applicable Percentages determined after giving effect to the termination of the Non-Extended Revolving Commitments on the Revolving Maturity Date; provided further that any reallocation that would be required pursuant to the foregoing proviso shall not be effected for so long as (x) such reallocation would result in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances of any Extending Revolving Lender

 

-49-


plus such Extending Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage (as so determined) of the Letter of Credit Exposure exceeding such Extending Revolving Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment or (y) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. No Letter of Credit will be issued, increased or extended unless:

(i) such Letter of Credit has an expiration date not later than the earlier of (A) five (5) Business Days prior to the Extended Revolving Maturity Date and (B) one (1) year from the issuance thereof (or, in the case of an extension, one (1) year from the extension thereof); provided that any such Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor may expressly provide that it is renewable at the option of the applicable Issuing Bank for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the Extended Revolving Maturity Date), so long as such Letter of Credit is subject to a right of the applicable Issuing Bank to prevent any such renewal from occurring by giving notice to the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit at least thirty (30) days in advance of such renewal; provided further that no Letter of Credit will be issued, increased or extended if the expiration date of any such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Revolving Maturity Date and, at the time of such issuance, increase or extension, the amount of such requested Letter of Credit, together with the amounts of all other outstanding Letters of Credit with expiration dates occurring after the Revolving Maturity Date, would exceed the aggregate Extended Revolving Commitments;

(ii) such Letter of Credit is in form and substance acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion; and

(iii) the Borrower, and if such Letter of Credit is for the account of the Parent or any other Subsidiary, the Parent or such other Subsidiary, has delivered to the applicable Issuing Bank a completed and executed Letter of Credit Application and a completed Letter of Credit Request.

(b) Certain Limits on Issuing Banks’ Obligation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Letter of Credit Application, no Issuing Bank shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Legal Requirement applicable to such Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Restatement Effective Date, or shall impose upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Restatement Effective Date and which such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it;

 

-50-


(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally;

(iii) except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank, such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency;

(iv) in the case of any requested Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Issuing Bank does not, as of the requested issuance date of such Letter of Credit, issue letters of credit denominated in such currency;

(v) any Revolving Lender is at such time a Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender, unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to such Issuing Bank (in its sole discretion) with the Borrower or such Revolving Lender to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv)) with respect to such Defaulting Lender or Potential Defaulting Lender; or

(vi) the requested beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept such Letter of Credit.

(c) Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.

(i) Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of an LC Disbursement under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly determine the Dollar Equivalent thereof and notify the Borrower thereof, and the Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement in Dollars. If any Issuing Bank shall make an LC Disbursement (the date of any such disbursement, an “Honor Date”), the Borrower shall reimburse such Issuing Bank by paying to the Administrative Agent in Dollars the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such LC Disbursement not later than (A) if the Borrower shall have received notice of such disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m. (New York time) on any Business Day, 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on such Business Day or (B) otherwise, 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice; provided that the Borrower may, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.02(c), but subject to the proviso set forth in Section 2.01(a) and the conditions set forth in Section 3.02, request that such payment be financed with a Revolving Borrowing and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Advances. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse such Issuing Bank by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement (expressed in Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency) (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage thereof. Any notice given by the Issuing

 

-51-


Banks or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.03(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.

(ii) Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Applicable Lending Office, an amount in Same Day Funds equal to its Applicable Percentage of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Business Day specified in such notice by the Administrative Agent, whereupon such Lender shall be deemed to have made an LC Advance in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.03. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the applicable Issuing Bank in Dollars.

(iii) Interest accrued pursuant to Section 2.09(c) with respect to any LC Disbursement shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender of its LC Advance with respect to such LC Disbursement shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such LC Advance.

(iv) Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make LC Advances to reimburse the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements, as contemplated by this Section 2.03(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against any Issuing Bank, the Parent, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. No such making of an LC Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Banks for any LC Disbursement, together with interest as provided herein.

(v) If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(c) by the time specified in Section 2.03(c)(ii), such Issuing Bank shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the applicable Issuing Bank at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by such Issuing Bank in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s LC Advance in respect of the relevant LC Disbursement. A certificate of any Issuing Bank submitted to any Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (v) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

-52-


(d) Repayment of Participations.

(i) At any time after any Issuing Bank has made an LC Disbursement and has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s LC Advance in respect of such disbursement in accordance with Section 2.03(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of such Issuing Bank any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Applicable Percentage thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.

(ii) If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.11 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Issuing Bank in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank its Applicable Percentage thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(e) Obligations Absolute. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Banks for each LC Disbursement shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit Document or any other Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, counterclaim, setoff, defense or other right that the Parent, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Person may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the applicable Issuing Bank or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the Transactions or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;

(iv) any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;

 

-53-


(v) any payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the applicable Issuing Bank under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;

(vi) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Parent, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Person, or in the relevant currency markets generally; or

(vii) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Parent, the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or any other Person.

The Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with the Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, the Borrower will immediately notify the applicable Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the applicable Issuing Bank and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing but subject to the proviso in subsection (f) below, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrower hereunder to reimburse each LC Disbursement made by the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to a Letter of Credit will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank.

(f) Role of Issuing Bank. The Borrower assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit with respect to its use of such Letter of Credit. None of the Issuing Banks, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties or any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Banks shall be liable or responsible for:

(i) the use which may be made of any Letter of Credit or any acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee in connection therewith;

(ii) the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of documents, or of any endorsement thereon, even if such documents should prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, fraudulent or forged;

(iii) payment by such Issuing Bank against presentation of documents which do not comply with the terms of a Letter of Credit; or

(iv) any other circumstances whatsoever in making or failing to make payment under any Letter of Credit (including such Issuing Bank’s own negligence);

 

-54-


provided, however, that the Borrower shall have a claim against the applicable Issuing Bank, and such Issuing Bank shall be liable to, and shall promptly pay to, the Borrower, to the extent of any direct, as opposed to consequential (claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements), damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower prove were caused by (A) the applicable Issuing Bank’s willful misconduct or gross negligence in determining whether documents presented under a Letter of Credit strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, (B) in the event the applicable Issuing Bank did not follow its own standard operating procedures in all material respects or (C) the applicable Issuing Bank has honored a Letter of Credit in violation of, to its knowledge, applicable Legal Requirements or court order. It is understood that the Issuing Banks may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit, (x) such Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (y) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of such Issuing Bank. Each Revolving Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document.

(g) Cash Collateral.

(i) Upon the request of the Administrative Agent, (A) if any Issuing Bank has made any LC Disbursement and such disbursement has not been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower as required under Section 2.03(c)(i) or refinanced with a Revolving Borrowing or (B) if, as of the Extended Revolving Maturity Date, any Letter of Credit Exposure for any reason remains outstanding, the Borrower shall, in each case, promptly Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Exposure in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Exposure. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of such Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations. Sections 2.08, 7.02 and 7.03 set forth certain additional requirements to deliver Cash Collateral hereunder.

(ii) If at any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, promptly upon the request of the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall deliver to the Collateral Agent Cash Collateral in an amount equal to the Fronting Exposure of such Issuing Bank at the time (determined for the avoidance of doubt, after giving effect to Section 2.17(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by any Defaulting Lender).

 

-55-


(iii) If the Borrower is required to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Exposure or Fronting Exposure pursuant to the terms hereof, then the Borrower and the Collateral Agent shall establish the LC Cash Collateral Account and the Borrower shall execute any documents and agreements, including the Collateral Agent’s standard form assignment of deposit accounts and control agreements, that the Collateral Agent reasonably requests in connection therewith to establish the LC Cash Collateral Account and grant the Collateral Agent an Acceptable Security Interest in such account and the funds therein. The Borrower hereby pledges to the Collateral Agent and grants the Collateral Agent a security interest in the LC Cash Collateral Account, whenever established, all funds held in such LC Cash Collateral Account from time to time, and all proceeds thereof as security for the payment of the Obligations.

(iv) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by any Defaulting Lender ceasing to be a Defaulting Lender or ceasing to be a Revolving Lender) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided, however, that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Loan Party shall not be released during the continuance of a Default or Event of Default and may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 7.06.

(h) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each Financial Letter of Credit and each Performance Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance, shall apply to each Documentary Letter of Credit.

(i) Conflict with Letter of Credit Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Letter of Credit Document, the terms hereof shall control.

(j) Letters of Credit Issued for Person other than the Borrower. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, the Parent or any Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all LC Disbursements under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Parent or any Subsidiary other than the Borrower inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of the Parent and such of its Subsidiaries.

(k) Existing Letters of Credit. Crédit Agricole CIB, in its capacity as Issuing Bank, the Revolving Lenders and the Borrower agree that effective as of the Closing Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued and maintained under, and to be governed by the terms and conditions of, this Agreement.

 

-56-


(l) Designation of Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Revolving Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be construed to refer to, or to include, such Revolving Lender in its capacity as the issuer of the relevant Letter of Credit or as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder, as the context requires.

Section 2.04 Evidence of Indebtedness; Notes. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from the Loans made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall also maintain accounts in which it will record (A) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Interest Period with respect thereto, (B) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (C) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof. The entries maintained in the accounts maintained pursuant to sentences above shall be conclusive evidence of the existence and amounts of the Obligations therein recorded absent manifest error; provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Obligations in accordance with their terms. Any Lender may request that the Loans owing to such Lender be evidenced by a Note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender and its registered assigns. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such Note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after any assignment pursuant to Section 10.06) be represented by one or more Notes payable to the order of the payee named therein or any assignee pursuant to Section 10.06, except to the extent that any such Lender or assignee subsequently returns any such Note for cancellation and requests that such Loans once again be evidenced solely in the accounts of such Lender and the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.05 Reductions of the Revolving Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least five (5) Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portion of the Revolving Commitments; provided that each partial reduction of Revolving Commitments shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lesser amount as may then be outstanding); provided further that any such notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments may state that such notice is

 

-57-


conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) day prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. To the extent that a Revolving Commitment reduction would result in the Revolving Outstanding Amount exceeding the aggregate Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall reduce the Revolving Outstanding Amount such that after giving effect to such reduction such excess has been eliminated. Such reductions shall be made to the extent necessary by first prepaying the Revolving Advances outstanding at such time, and second depositing in the LC Cash Collateral Account an amount of cash equal to 105% of the remaining excess to be held by the Collateral Agent as Collateral and applied to satisfy drawings under Letters of Credit as they occur. Any reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be permanent, with no obligation of the Revolving Lenders to reinstate such Revolving Commitments, and the commitment fees provided for in Section 2.06(b) shall thereafter be computed on the basis of the Revolving Commitments as so reduced. The Administrative Agent shall give each Revolving Lender prompt notice of any commitment reduction or termination. If after giving effect to any reduction of Revolving Commitments under this Section 2.05, either of the Revolving Sublimit or the New Revolving Borrowing Availability Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments as so reduced, each of the Revolving Sublimit and the New Revolving Borrowing Availability Amount shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess.

Section 2.06 Fees.

(a) Agency Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees as separately agreed upon by the Borrower in the Fee Letters.

(b) Commitment Fee. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate times the actual daily amount by which the aggregate Revolving Commitments exceed the Revolving Outstanding Amount. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Availability Period (in the case of the commitment fees accruing for the account of the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders) and the Extended Revolving Availability Period (in the case of the commitment fees accruing for the account of the Extending Revolving Lenders), including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article III is not met, and shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the last day of the Revolving Availability Period (in the case of commitment fees accrued for the account of the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders) or the Extended Revolving Availability Period (in the case of the commitment fees accrued for the account of the Extending Revolving Lenders).

(c) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with its Applicable Percentage, in Dollars, (i) a per annum letter of credit fee for each Documentary Letter of Credit or Financial Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Advances that are Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (ii) a per annum letter of credit fee for each Performance Letter of Credit equal to the Applicable Margin for Performance Letters of Credit, in each case times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided, however, that any

 

-58-


letter of credit fees otherwise payable for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Letter of Credit shall be payable, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, to the other Revolving Lenders in accordance with the upward adjustments in their respective Applicable Percentage allocable to such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.17(a)(iv), with the balance of such fee, if any, being retained by the Borrower for its own account or, to the extent any Fronting Exposure shall then be outstanding, being payable to the applicable Issuing Bank for its own account to the extent such fee relates to the amount of such Fronting Exposure. Each letter of credit fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on or before the later of (A) the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (B) five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of an invoice therefor, in each case commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, until the earlier of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit or the last day of the Revolving Availability Period (in the case of letter of credit fees accrued for the account of the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders) or the Extended Revolving Availability Period (in the case of the letter of credit fees accrued for the account of the Extending Revolving Lenders).

(d) Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to Issuing Bank. The Borrower shall pay directly to each Issuing Bank for its own account, in Dollars, a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it, equal to 0.25% per annum times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. Each such fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on or before the later of (i) the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and (ii) five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of an invoice therefor, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, until the earlier of the expiration date of such Letter of Credit or the Extended Revolving Maturity Date. In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower agrees to pay to the applicable Issuing Bank all customary transaction costs and fees charged by such Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal, extension, advising, confirmation or transfer of a Letter of Credit for the Borrower’s account, such costs and fees to be due and payable on the date specified by such Issuing Bank in the invoice for such costs and fees.

(e) Incremental Term Loan Original Issue Discount. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein (and without affecting any other provisions hereof), the funded portion of each Incremental Term Loan to be made on the Restatement Effective Date (i.e., the amount advanced to the Borrower on the Restatement Effective Date) shall be equal to 97.0% of the principal amount of such Incremental Term Loan (it being agreed, in each case, that the full principal amount of each such Incremental Term Loan shall be the “initial” principal amount of such Incremental Term Loan and deemed outstanding on the Restatement Effective Date and the Borrower shall be obligated to repay 100% of the principal amount of each such Incremental Term Loan as provided hereunder).

(f) Generally. All such fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available Dollars to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Revolving Lenders, except that the fees payable pursuant to Section 2.06(d) shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, absent manifest error, none of these fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

 

-59-


(g) Extension Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to each Extending Revolving Lender a cash extension fee equal to 2.00% of the initial Extended Revolving Commitment of such Extending Revolving Lender and the other fees payable to Lenders as set forth in the Amendment and Restatement Agreement (it being understood that any fees payable under this clause (g) shall be without duplication of the fees payable under the Amendment and Restatement Agreement).

Section 2.07 Repayment.

(a) Revolving Advances and LC Advances. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to repay (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances and LC Advances made by the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders under their Non-Extended Revolving Commitments on the Revolving Maturity Date, and (ii) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Advances and LC Advances made by the Extending Revolving Lenders under their Extended Revolving Commitments on the Extended Revolving Maturity Date (it being understood that any payment by the Borrower of an LC Advance shall reduce by the same amount reimbursement obligations of the Borrower under Section 2.03(c)).

(b) Term Loans.

(i) The Borrower hereby promises to repay Term Borrowings on (A) December 31, 2010, an aggregate principal amount (as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(ii)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Borrowings made on the Closing Date and (B) the last day of each March, June, September and December, beginning with March 31, 2011 and ending with the last such day to occur prior to the Term Maturity Date, in an aggregate principal amount for each such date (as such amount may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(ii)) equal to (x) 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Borrowings made on the Closing Date plus (y) in the case of any such date occurring after the Restatement Effective Date, 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans made on the Restatement Effective Date.

(ii) Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.08(b) shall be applied to reduce, first, the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings to be made pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) in the direct chronological order of such scheduled repayments, until the payment due on the next four (4) such scheduled repayments to be made pursuant to such Section after such prepayment shall have been discharged, and then to the remaining scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings under Section 2.07(b)(i) ratably based on the amount of such scheduled repayments. Any prepayment of a Term Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.08(c) shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of the Term Borrowings to be made pursuant to Section 2.07(b)(i) in the inverse chronological order of such scheduled repayments.

(iii) To the extent not previously repaid or prepaid, the Borrower hereby promises to repay the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans on the Term Maturity Date.

(a) Right to Prepay. Subject to the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, including in this Section 2.08, the Borrower may prepay any principal amount of any Loan.

(b) Optional.

(i) The Borrower may elect to prepay, in whole or in part, any of the Revolving Borrowings owing by it to the Revolving Lenders, after giving prior written notice of such election by (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days before such prepayment date in the case of Revolving Borrowings which are comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), in the case of Revolving Borrowings which are comprised of Base Rate Loans, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each Applicable Lender, and the Borrower shall prepay the Loans comprising part of such Revolving Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,500,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice given under this Section 2.08(b)(i) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) day prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied and, if so revoked, no prepayment on account of such notice shall be required to be made by the Borrower hereunder.

(ii) The Borrower may elect to prepay, in whole or in part, any of the Term Borrowings owing by it to the Term Lenders, after giving prior written notice of such election by (i) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days before such prepayment date in the case of Term Borrowings which are comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, and (ii) 11:00 a.m. (New York time) on the date of such prepayment (which shall be a Business Day), in the case of Term Borrowings which are comprised of Base Rate Loans, in each case to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of such prepayment. If any such notice is given, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each Applicable Lender, and the Borrower shall prepay the Loans comprising part of such Term Borrowing in whole or ratably in part in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount specified in such notice; provided, however, that each partial prepayment of any Term Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $2,500,000 and in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any notice given under this Section 2.08(b)(ii) may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent at least one (1) day prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied and, if so revoked, no prepayment on account of such notice shall be required to be made by the Borrower hereunder.

event of any prepayment under this Section 2.08(b)(ii), if such prepayment is made solely with Net Debt Proceeds of an incurrence of Debt or with Equity Issuance Proceeds, such prepayment shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the Term Loans then being prepaid if such prepayment is made prior to December 31, 2012. No prepayment premium will apply to prepayments of the Term Loans under this Section 2.08(b)(ii) occurring on or after December 31, 2012.

(c) Mandatory Prepayments of Loans.

(ii) Reduction of Commitments. On the date of each reduction of the aggregate Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.05, the Borrower shall make a prepayment in respect of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Advances, or if the Revolving Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the LC Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure to the extent, if any, that the Revolving Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments as so reduced.

(iii) Deficiency Based on New Revolving Borrowing Availability Amount.

(iv) Currency Risks. On each Revaluation Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Outstanding Amount. If, on any Revaluation Date, the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Outstanding Amount exceeds the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect, then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders. Within two (2) Business Days after the Borrower has received notice thereof, the Borrower shall make a prepayment in respect of the outstanding amount of the Revolving Advances, or if the Revolving Advances have been repaid in full, make deposits into the LC Cash Collateral Account to provide Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure, such that after giving effect to such prepayment or provision, the Revolving Outstanding Amount does not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments then in effect.

(v) Asset Dispositions; Event of Loss. If the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall at any time or from time to time make an Asset Disposition or suffer an Event of Loss, then (A) the Borrower shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such Asset Disposition or Event of Loss (including the amount of the estimated Net Proceeds to be received by the Parent and/or any of its Subsidiaries in respect thereof) and (B) promptly upon receipt by the Parent and/or any of its Subsidiaries of the Net Proceeds of such Asset Disposition or such Event of Loss (unless the Parent has delivered a

Reinvestment Notice to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Proceeds; provided, however, that if, on the Reinvestment Prepayment Date in respect of any Reinvestment Event, the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount in respect of such Reinvestment Event shall exceed zero, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Reinvestment Prepayment Amount. Any Net Proceeds with respect to which a Reinvestment Notice shall have been delivered as described above shall be required, prior to the earlier of (i) the application thereof to make any Qualified Investment and (ii) the application thereof to make a prepayment under this paragraph, to be deposited into a Collateral Agent Account or another deposit account that is subject to an Account Control Agreement.

(vi) Debt Issuance. Promptly upon the receipt by the Parent or any of its Subsidiaries of any Net Debt Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 100% of such Net Debt Proceeds. Each such prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.08(c)(vi) shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the Term Loans then being prepaid if such prepayment is made prior to December 31, 2012. No prepayment premium will apply to prepayments of the Term Loans under this Section 2.08(c)(vi) occurring on or after December 31, 2012.

(vii) Equity Issuance. Promptly upon receipt by the Parent of any Equity Issuance Proceeds, the Borrower shall prepay Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of such Equity Issuance Proceeds; provided, however, that no prepayment shall be required to be made in respect of a receipt of any Equity Issuance Proceeds if the Total Leverage Ratio as of the end of the fiscal quarter most recently ended prior to such receipt is less than 2.75 to 1.00. Each such prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.08(c)(vii) (if applied to the Term Loans at the election of the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.08(e)) shall be accompanied by a prepayment premium equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the Term Loans then being prepaid if such prepayment is made prior to December 31, 2012. No prepayment premium will apply to prepayments of the Term Loans under this Section 2.08(c)(vii) occurring on or after December 31, 2012.

(viii) Excess Cash Flow. Within five (5) Business Days after financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 5.06(a), the Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to (x) 75% of Excess Cash Flow for the most recent fiscal year covered by such financial statements less (y) the aggregate principal amount of any voluntary prepayment of Term Borrowings made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.08(b) during such fiscal year, excluding any such voluntary prepayments to the extent financed with the incurrence of Long-Term Debt.

(d) Accrued Interest; Ratable Payments; Effect of Notice. Each prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount prepaid to the date of such prepayment and amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.10 as a result of such prepayment being made on such date. Each payment of any Loan pursuant to this Section 2.08 or any other provision of this Agreement shall be made in a manner such that all

 

-63-


Loans comprising part of the same Borrowing are paid in whole or ratably in part. Except as provided in Section 2.08(b), all notices given pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be irrevocable and binding upon the Borrower.

(e) Application of Payments. All prepayments of Loans made pursuant to Section 2.08(c), other than prepayments made pursuant to Sections 2.08(c)(i) – (iv), (vi) and (viii), shall be applied at the election of the Borrower to the prepayment of the Term Loans or Revolving Advances, or any combination thereof, until all such Loans are repaid in full; provided, however, that a Term Lender may, pursuant to procedures to be established by the Administrative Agent, decline to have any such prepayment be applied to its Term Loans, in which case the amounts so declined shall be applied to the prepayment of the Revolving Advances or, if the Revolving Advances have been repaid in full, shall be deposited as Cash Collateral for the Letter of Credit Exposure in accordance with the relevant provisions of Section 2.08(c).

All prepayments of Loans required under Section 2.08(c)(i) – (iv) and (viii) shall be applied as set forth in such Sections. All prepayments of Loans required under Section 2.08(c)(vi) shall be applied first to Term Loans until such Loans are repaid in full, and second to Revolving Advances until such Loans are repaid in full. For purposes of Section 2.01(a), any repayment under Section 2.07 or any prepayment under this Section 2.08 of any Revolving Advance (irrespective of when such Revolving Advance shall have actually been made) shall be deemed (but only to the extent such repayment or prepayment does not increase the New Revolving Borrowing Availability Amount on account thereof) to be a repayment or prepayment of a Revolving Advance made after the Restatement Effective Date, and a corresponding reduction in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Borrowings made after the Restatement Effective Date, but in each case only to the extent of the aggregate outstanding amount of any Revolving Advances (other than Specified Revolving Borrowings made before the New Revolving Borrowing Availability Trigger Date) made on and after the Restatement Effective Date.

Section 2.09 Interest.

(a) Loans. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Loan made by each Lender to it from the date of such Loan until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

(i) Base Rate Loans. If such Loan is a Base Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans of the applicable Class, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter and on the date such Base Rate Loan shall be paid in full.

(ii) Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If such Loan is a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period applicable thereto plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Loans of the applicable Class, payable in arrears on the last day of such Interest Period, and, in the case of Interest Periods of greater than three months, on each Business Day which occurs at three month intervals from the first day of such Interest Period.

 

-64-


(b) Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Loans. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as any such Lender shall be required under regulations of the Federal Reserve Board to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan of such Lender at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by subtracting (i) the Eurocurrency Rate for the Interest Period for such Loan from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurocurrency Rate by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such Eurocurrency Rate Loans for such Interest Period, payable, subject to the receipt of notice referred to below, on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan. Such additional interest payable to any Lender shall be determined by such Lender and notified to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent (such notice to include the calculation of such additional interest, which calculation shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and be accompanied by any evidence indicating the need for such additional interest as the Borrower may reasonably request).

(c) LC Disbursements. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unreimbursed amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from the date such LC Disbursement is made to the date that such LC Disbursement is reimbursed in full by or on behalf of the Borrower or refinanced with a Revolving Borrowing, at the rate per annum then applicable to Revolving Advances that are Base Rate Loans; provided that if the Borrower shall have failed to reimburse such LC Disbursement by the time it is required to do so pursuant to Section 2.03(c)(i), interest on such unreimbursed amount shall be subject to Section 2.09(e).

(d) Usury Recapture. In the event the rate of interest chargeable under this Agreement at any time (calculated after giving effect to all items charged which constitute “interest” under applicable Legal Requirements, including fees and margin amounts, if applicable) is greater than the Maximum Rate, the unpaid principal amount of the Loans shall bear interest at the Maximum Rate until the total amount of interest paid or accrued on the Loans equals the amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued on the Loans if the stated rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect. In the event, upon payment in full of the Loans, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement and the Loans is less than the total amount of interest which would have been paid or accrued if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had, at all times, been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, pay the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders an amount equal to the difference between (i) the lesser of (A) the amount of interest which would have been charged on its Loans if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect and (B) the amount of interest which would have accrued on its Loans if the rates of interest set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect and (ii) the amount of interest actually paid under this Agreement on its Loans. In the event the Lenders ever receive, collect or apply as interest any sum in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess amount shall, to the extent permitted by law, be applied to the reduction of the principal balance of the Loans, and if no such principal is then outstanding, such excess or part thereof remaining shall be paid to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Legal Requirements, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as

 

-65-


an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

(e) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee, reimbursement of an LC Disbursement or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan or any LC Disbursement, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan or LC Disbursement as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.09 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to Revolving Advances that are Base Rate Loans as provided in Section 2.09(a)(i).

(f) Retroactive Adjustments of Applicable Margin and Applicable Commitment Fee Rate. In the event that any financial statement or Compliance Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 5.06 is shown to be inaccurate (regardless of whether this Agreement or any of the Commitments or Loans are in effect when such inaccuracy is discovered), and such inaccuracy, if corrected, would have led to the application of a higher Applicable Margin or Applicable Commitment Fee Rate for any period (an “Applicable Period”) than the Applicable Margin or Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, as the case may be, applied for such Applicable Period, then (i) the Borrower shall promptly deliver to the Administrative Agent a corrected Compliance Certificate for such Applicable Period, (ii) the Applicable Margin and the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate shall be determined as if the higher Applicable Margin or Applicable Commitment Fee Rate, as the case may be, that would have applied were applicable for such Applicable Period and (iii) the Borrower shall immediately, without further action by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Banks, pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Applicable Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, an amount equal to the excess of the interest and fees that should have been paid for such Applicable Period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such Applicable Period. This Section 2.09(f) shall not limit the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Banks with respect to Section 2.09(e) and Article VII. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 2.09(f) shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the repayment of all Obligations hereunder.

Section 2.10 Breakage Costs.

(a) Funding Losses. In the case of any Borrowing which the related Notice of Borrowing specifies is to be comprised of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Borrower hereby indemnifies, and agrees to indemnify, each Lender against any loss, out-of-pocket cost, or expense (other than any lost profit) incurred by such Lender as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of Borrowing for such Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in Article III, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or redeployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund the Eurocurrency Rate Loan to be made by such Lender as part of such Borrowing when such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as a result of such failure, is not made on such date.

 

-66-


(b) Prepayment Losses. If (i) any payment of principal of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of any prepayment, payment pursuant to Section 2.08, the acceleration of the maturity of the Obligations, or for any other reason or (ii) the Borrower fails to make a principal or interest payment with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on the date such payment is due and payable, the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of any written demand sent by the Administrative Agent on behalf of a Lender to the Borrower, pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender any amounts determined by such Lender to be required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs, or expenses (other than any anticipated lost profits) which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or nonpayment, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by any Lender to fund or maintain such Loans.

(c) Assignment Losses. If any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan is made other than on the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to clause (e) of Section 2.16, the Borrower shall, within three (3) Business Days of any written demand sent by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lender that is the assignee thereof to the Borrower, pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such Lender any amounts determined by such Lender to be required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, out-of-pocket costs, or expenses (other than any anticipated lost profits) which it may reasonably incur as a result of such assignment, including, without limitation, any such loss, cost, or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Loan.

(d) Certificate. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.11 Increased Costs.

(a) Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage), or any Issuing Bank; or

(ii) impose on any Lender, any Issuing Bank, or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender, such Issuing Bank, or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or

 

-67-


maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Requirements. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or any of their respective holding companies, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.11 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine (9) months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

(e) Designation of Alternative Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts (consistent with its respective internal policies and subject to legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such designation would avoid the effect of this Section 2.11, would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, be otherwise materially disadvantageous to such Lender or Issuing Bank.

Section 2.12 Payments and Computations.

(a) Payment Procedures. The Borrower shall make each payment under this Agreement prior to the time expressly required hereunder (or, if no such time is expressly required, not later than 12:00 noon (New York time)) on the day when due to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Applicable Lending Office in immediately available funds; provided that payments specified to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or any other Person, including payments pursuant to Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13 and 10.04, shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. Each Loan shall be repaid and each payment of interest thereon shall be paid in Dollars. All payments shall be made without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent will, promptly after receipt by it of any payment for the account of any other Person, and in any event prior to the close of business on the day any timely payment is made, cause to be distributed like funds to the appropriate recipient.

(b) Computations. All computations of interest based on the Prime Rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Eurocurrency Rate and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent, on the basis of a year of 360 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 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Non-Business Day Payments. Whenever any payment 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 interest or fees, as the case may be.

(d) Agent Reliance. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this clause (d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error

 

-69-


Section 2.13 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without reduction or withholding for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, provided that if any Loan Party shall be required by any Legal Requirement to deduct any Indemnified Taxes (including any Other Taxes) from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, each Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Legal Requirements.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Legal Requirements.

(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party hereunder, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Status of Lenders. Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is resident for tax purposes, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower 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 or any Issuing Bank if requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender

 

-70-


or such Issuing Bank is subject to 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 Section 2.13(f) below, with the exception of Section 2.13(f)(v)) 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.

(f) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent applicable forms, certificates or documents, including IRS Form W-9 (in the case of a Lender that is not a Foreign Lender), as may be required under the Code or other Legal Requirements as a condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding or backup withholding Tax. Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower 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 Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, but only if such Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (with applicable attachments) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(ii) two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI,

(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (D) conducting a trade or business in the United States of America with which the relevant payments are effectively connected and (y) two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (with applicable attachments),

(iv) in the case of a Foreign Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including a partnership of a participating Lender) (x) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (y) the relevant form prescribed in this Section 2.13(f) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; or

(v) any other form prescribed by Legal Requirements as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States Federal withholding Tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Legal Requirements to permit the Withholding Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

 

-71-


If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender fails to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by Legal Requirements and at such time or times reasonably requested by such Withholding Agent, (A) a certification signed by an authorized officer thereof and (B) other documentation prescribed by Legal Requirements (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent sufficient for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this Section 2.13(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If the Administrative Agent, a Lender or any Issuing Bank determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.13, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.13 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(h) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.13, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “Legal Requirements” includes FATCA.

Section 2.14 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or other obligations hereunder resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon or other such obligations than the proportion received by any other Lenders, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and such other obligations of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such

 

-72-


payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that: (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.14 shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant. Each Loan Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Legal Requirements, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Loan Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of each Loan Party in the amount of such participation.

Section 2.15 Applicable Lending Offices. Each Lender may book its Loans at any Applicable Lending Office selected by such Lender and may change its Applicable Lending Office from time to time. All terms of this Agreement shall apply to any such Applicable Lending Office and the Loans shall be deemed held by each Lender for the benefit of such Applicable Lending Office. Each Lender may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower designate replacement or additional Applicable Lending Offices through which Loans will be made by it and for whose account repayments are to be made.

Section 2.16 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender provides a notice under Section 2.02(c)(iv), (b) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.11, (c) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.13, (d) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender, (e) any Lender has failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that under Section 10.01 requires the consent of all the Lenders (or all the affected Lenders or all the Lenders of the affected Class) and with respect to which the Majority Lenders (or, in circumstances where Section 10.01 does not require the consent of the Majority Lenders, a majority in interest of the Lenders of the affected Class) shall have granted their consent or (f) any Lender is a Non-Extending Lender, then the Borrower may, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.06), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or, in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from such Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender or a Potential Defaulting Lender or from a failure to provide a consent, all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender of a particular Class) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (except in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a Lender being a Non-Extending Lender) and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank, in each case which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, delayed or conditioned, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and LC Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder as a Lender (or as a Lender of a particular Class, as applicable), from the assignee or the Borrower,

 

-73-


(iii) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.13, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, (iv) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from the failure to provide a consent, the assignee shall have given such consent and, as a result of such assignment and delegation and any contemporaneous assignments and delegations and consents, the applicable amendment, waiver, discharge or termination can be effected, (v) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a Lender being a Non-Extending Lender, the Non-Extended Revolving Commitments so assigned shall be converted into Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to, and in accordance with, Section 2.18(b) and (vi) that no more than 25% of the aggregate Commitments can be assigned to such other Lenders or Eligible Assignees pursuant to this Section 2.16 at any one time. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply.

Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.08, or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 7.05), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows:

(A) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder;

(B) second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder;

(C) third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent or requested by the applicable Issuing Bank, to be held as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of such Defaulting Lender of any participation in any Letter of Credit;

(D) fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent;

(E) fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the

 

-74-


Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans under this Agreement;

(F) sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or any Issuing Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement;

(G) seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and

(H) eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Advances in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) in the case of such Loans, such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans and LC Advances of all non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans or LC Advances of such Defaulting Lender.

Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to any Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by such Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents to the foregoing.

(iii) Certain Fees. Such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.06(b) or any letter of credit fee pursuant to Section 2.06(c) for any period during which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.06(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(iv) Reallocation of Ratable Portions to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, solely for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.03, the “Applicable Percentage” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender; provided, that (A) each such reallocation shall be given effect only if, at the date the applicable Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, no Default or Event of Default exists; and (B) the aggregate obligation of any non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of such non- Defaulting Lender minus (2) the aggregate Revolving Advances of such non-Defaulting Lender.

 

-75-


(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, 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 (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Revolving Advances of the other Revolving Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Advances and participations in Letters of Credit to be held on a pro rata basis by the Revolving Lenders in accordance with their Applicable Percentages (without giving effect to clause (a)(iv) above), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower 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 to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(c) Replacement of Defaulting Lenders. If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to be replaced in accordance with Section 2.16.

(d) Termination of Defaulting Lender Revolving Commitment. The Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Revolving Lenders thereof), provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.18 Revolving Commitment Extensions.

(a) Conversion. At any time after the Restatement Effective Date, any Non-Extending Revolving Lender may, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower and each Issuing Bank (such consent from each Issuing Bank not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), elect to convert all or any portion of its Non-Extended Revolving Commitment into an Extended Revolving Commitment (it being understood that, in the case of any Non-Extending Revolving Lender acquiring its Non-Extended Revolving Commitment after the Restatement Effective Date pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, such conversion may be made substantially concurrently with the effectiveness of the assignment and delegation contemplated by such Assignment and Acceptance). Any such conversion shall be effective upon delivery to the Administrative Agent of a writing signed by such Non-Extending Revolving Lender, the Borrower and each Issuing Bank specifying the amount of such Non-Extending Revolving Lender’s Non-Extended Revolving Commitment to be so converted and the effective date thereof.

 

-76-


(b) Status; Amendments. Any Non-Extended Revolving Commitment converted pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall for all purposes hereof and of the other Loan Documents be deemed an Extended Revolving Commitment and the converting Non-Extending Revolving Lender shall, to the extent of the amount of its Non-Extended Revolving Commitment so converted, be deemed an Extending Revolving Lender and shall have all the rights and obligations of an Extending Revolving Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, in each case as of the effectiveness of such conversion. The Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give notice to the Revolving Lenders of the effectiveness of any conversion pursuant to this Section 2.18. The Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrower, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.18 (and each such amendment is hereby deemed consented to (and not requiring any further consent or agreement of) the Majority Lenders, the Majority Revolving Lenders and each other Person that is a party to the Amendment and Restatement Agreement).

ARTICLE VIII

THE GUARANTY

Section 8.01 Liabilities Guaranteed. Each Guarantor hereby, joint and severally, irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the prompt payment at maturity of the Obligations.

Section 8.02 Nature of Guaranty. This guaranty is an absolute, irrevocable, completed and continuing guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection, and no notice of the Obligations or any extension of credit already or hereafter contracted by or extended to the Borrower need be given to any Guarantor. This guaranty may not be revoked by any Guarantor and shall continue to be effective with respect to the Obligations arising or created after any attempted revocation by such Guarantor and shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations (other than contingent obligations) are paid in full and the Commitments are terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto no Obligations may be outstanding. The Borrower and the Lenders may modify, alter, rearrange, extend for any period and/or renew from time to time, the Obligations, and the Lenders may waive any Default or Events of Default without notice to any Guarantor and in such event each Guarantor will remain fully bound hereunder on the Obligations. This guaranty shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by any of the Lenders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made. This guaranty may be enforced by the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any subsequent holder of any of the Obligations and shall not be discharged by the assignment or negotiation of all or part of the Obligations. Each Guarantor hereby expressly waives presentment, demand, notice of non-payment, protest and notice of protest and dishonor, notice of Default or Event of Default, and also notice of acceptance of this guaranty, acceptance on the part of the Lenders being conclusively presumed by the Lenders’ request for this guaranty and the Guarantors’ being party to this Agreement.

Section 8.03 Agent’s Rights. Each Guarantor authorizes the Agents, without notice or demand and without affecting any Guarantor’s liability hereunder, to take and hold security for the payment of its obligations under this Article VIII and/or the Obligations, and exchange, enforce, waive and release any such security; and to apply such security and direct the order or manner of sale thereof as the Agents in their discretion may determine, and to obtain a guaranty of the Obligations from any one or more Persons and at any time or times to enforce, waive, rearrange, modify, limit or release any of such other Persons from their obligations under such guaranties.

It is agreed between the

 

-112-


Guarantors and the Lenders that the foregoing waivers are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that, but for this Guaranty and such waivers, the Lenders would not extend or continue to extend credit under this Agreement. The Lenders shall not be required to mitigate damages or take any action to reduce, collect or enforce the Obligations. Each Guarantor waives any defense arising by reason of any disability, lack of corporate authority or power, or other defense of the Borrower or any other guarantor of the Obligations, and shall remain liable hereon regardless of whether the Borrower or any other guarantor be found not liable thereon for any reason. Whether and when to exercise any of the remedies of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent, and no delay by the Administrative Agent in enforcing any remedy, including delay in conducting a foreclosure sale, shall be a defense to any Guarantor’s liability under this Article VIII.

(b) In addition to the waivers contained in Section 8.04(a), the Guarantors waive, and agree that they shall not at any time insist upon, plead or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any appraisal, valuation, stay, extension, marshaling of assets or redemption laws, or exemption, whether now or at any time hereafter in force, which may delay, prevent or otherwise affect the performance by the Guarantors of their obligations under, or the enforcement by any Agent or the Lenders of, this guaranty. The Guarantors hereby waive diligence, presentment and demand (whether for nonpayment or protest or of acceptance, maturity, extension of time, change in nature or form of the Obligations, acceptance of further security, release of further security, composition or agreement arrived at as to the amount of, or the terms of, the Obligations, notice of adverse change in the Borrower’s financial condition or any other fact which might materially increase the risk to the Guarantors) with respect to any of the Obligations or all other demands whatsoever and waive the benefit of all provisions of law which are or might be in conflict with the terms of this Article VIII. The Guarantors, jointly and severally, represent, warrant and agree that, as of the date of this guaranty, their obligations under this guaranty are not subject to any offsets or defenses of any kind against any Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower or any other Person that executes a Loan Document. The Guarantors further jointly and severally agree that their obligations under this guaranty shall not be subject to any counterclaims, offsets or defenses of any kind which may arise in the future against any Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower or any other Person that executes a Loan Document.

(c) Subrogation. Until the Obligations have been paid in full, each Guarantor waives all rights of subrogation or reimbursement against the Borrower, whether arising by contract or operation of law (including, without limitation, any such right arising under any federal, state or other applicable Debtor Relief Laws) and waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Lenders now have or may hereafter have against the Borrower, and waives any benefit or any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by any Agent or any Lender.

Section 8.05 Maturity of Obligations, Payment. Each Guarantor agrees that if the maturity of any of the Obligations is accelerated by bankruptcy or otherwise, such maturity shall also be deemed accelerated for the purpose of this Article VIII without demand or notice to any Guarantor. Each Guarantor will, forthwith upon notice from the Administrative Agent, jointly and severally pay to the Administrative Agent the amount due and unpaid by the Borrower and guaranteed hereby. The failure of the Administrative Agent to give this notice shall not in any way release any Guarantor hereunder.

 

-113-


Section 8.06 Agent’s Expenses. If any Guarantor fails to pay the Obligations after notice from the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s failure to pay any Obligations at maturity, and if the Administrative Agent obtains the services of an attorney for collection of amounts owing by any Guarantor hereunder, or obtaining advice of counsel in respect of any of their rights under this Article VIII, or if suit is filed to enforce this Article VIII, or if proceedings are had in any bankruptcy, probate, receivership or other judicial proceedings for the establishment or collection of any amount owing by any Guarantor hereunder, or if any amount owing by any Guarantor hereunder is collected through such proceedings, each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the Administrative Agent’s reasonable attorneys’ fees.

Section 8.07 Liability. It is expressly agreed that the liability of each Guarantor for the payment of the Obligations guaranteed hereby shall be primary and not secondary.

Section 8.08 Events and Circumstances Not Reducing or Discharging any Guarantor’s Obligations.

Any other action taken or omitted to be taken with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, or the security and collateral therefor, whether or not such action or omission prejudices any Guarantor or increases the likelihood that any Guarantor will be required to pay the Obligations pursuant to the terms hereof, it being the unambiguous and unequivocal intention of each Guarantor that each Guarantor shall be obligated to joint and severally pay the Obligations when due, notwithstanding any occurrence, circumstance, event, action, or omission whatsoever, whether contemplated or uncontemplated, and whether or not otherwise or particularly described herein, except for the full and final payment and satisfaction of the Obligations.

Section 8.09 Subordination of All Guarantor Claims.

(a) As used herein, the term “Guarantor Claims” shall mean all debts and liabilities of the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent to any Guarantor, whether such debts and liabilities now exist or are hereafter incurred or arise, or whether the obligation of the Parent or such Subsidiary thereon be direct, contingent, primary, secondary, several, joint and several, or otherwise, and irrespective of whether such debts or liabilities be evidenced by note, contract, open account, or otherwise, and irrespective of the person or persons in whose favor such debts or liabilities may, at their inception, have been, or may hereafter be created, or the manner in which they have been or may hereafter be acquired by any Guarantor. The Guarantor Claims shall include without limitation all rights and claims of any Guarantor against the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent arising as a result of subrogation or otherwise as a result of such Guarantor’s payment of all or a portion of the Obligations.

(b) The Borrower and each Guarantor hereby (i) authorizes the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to demand specific performance of the terms of this Section 8.09, whether or not the Borrower or any Guarantor shall have complied with any of the provisions hereof applicable to it, at any time when it shall have failed to comply with any provisions of this Section 8.09 which are applicable to it and (ii) irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of a remedy at law, which might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.

(c) Upon any distribution of assets of any Loan Party in any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceedings or upon an assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):

(i) The Lenders shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of the Obligations before any Guarantor is entitled to receive any payment on account of the Guarantor Claims.

(ii) Any payment or distribution of assets of any Loan Party of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Parent or any Guarantor would be entitled except for the provisions of this Section 8.09(c), shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution directly to the Lenders, to the extent necessary to make payment in full of all Obligations remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution or provisions therefor to the Lenders.

 

-116-


(d) No right of the Lenders or any other present or future holders of any Obligations to enforce the subordination provisions herein shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Loan Party or by any act or failure to act, in good faith, by any such holder, or by any noncompliance by the Borrower or any Guarantor with the terms hereof, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with.

Section 8.10 Claims in Bankruptcy. In the event of receivership, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, debtor’s relief, or other insolvency proceedings involving the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent, as debtor, the Lenders shall have the right to prove their claim in any proceeding, so as to establish their rights hereunder and receive directly from the receiver, trustee or other court custodian, dividends and payments which would otherwise be payable upon Guarantor Claims. Each Guarantor hereby assigns such dividends and payments to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders. Should the Administrative Agent or any Lender receive, for application upon the Obligations, any such dividend or payment which is otherwise payable to any Guarantor, and which, as between the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent and any Guarantor, shall constitute a credit upon the Guarantor Claims, then upon payment in full of the Obligations, such Guarantor shall become subrogated to the rights of the Lenders to the extent that such payments to the Lenders on the Guarantor Claims have contributed toward the liquidation of the Obligations, and such subrogation shall be with respect to that proportion of the Obligations which would have been unpaid if the Administrative Agent or a Lender had not received dividends or payments upon the Guarantor Claims.

Section 8.11 Payments Held in Trust. In the event that notwithstanding Sections 8.09 and 8.10 above, any Guarantor should receive any funds, payments, claims or distributions which is prohibited by such Sections, such Guarantor agrees to hold in trust for the Lenders an amount equal to the amount of all funds, payments, claims or distributions so received, and agrees that it shall have absolutely no dominion over the amount of such funds, payments, claims or distributions except to pay them promptly to the Administrative Agent, and each Guarantor covenants promptly to pay the same to the Administrative Agent.

Section 8.12 Benefit of Guaranty. The provisions of this Article VIII are for the benefit of the Lenders, their successors, and their permitted transferees, endorsees and assigns. In the event all or any part of the Obligations are transferred, endorsed or assigned by the Lenders, as the case may be, to any Person or Persons in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any reference to the “Lenders” herein, as the case may be, shall be deemed to refer equally to such Person or Persons.

Section 8.13 Reinstatement. This Article VIII shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective in the event any petition is filed by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party for liquidation or reorganization, in the event that any of them becomes insolvent or makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors or in the event a receiver, trustee or similar Person is appointed for all or any significant part of any of their assets, and shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and performance of the Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to Legal Requirements, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Lenders, whether as a “voidable preference,” “fraudulent conveyance,” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance

 

-117-


had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.

Section 8.14 Liens Subordinate. Each Guarantor agrees that any Liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Parent’s or any Subsidiary of the Parent’s assets securing payment of the Guarantor Claims shall be and remain inferior and subordinate to any Liens, security interests, judgment liens, charges or other encumbrances upon the Parent’s or any Subsidiary of the Parent’s assets securing payment of the Obligations, regardless of whether such encumbrances in favor of any Guarantor, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders presently exist or are hereafter created or attach.

Section 8.15 Guarantor’s Enforcement Rights. Without the prior written consent of the Lenders, no Guarantor shall (a) exercise or enforce any creditor’s right it may have against the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent, or (b) foreclose, repossess, sequester or otherwise take steps or institute any action or proceeding (judicial or otherwise, including without limitation the commencement of or joinder in any liquidation, bankruptcy, rearrangement, debtor’s relief or insolvency proceeding) to enforce any Lien, mortgages, deeds of trust, security interest, collateral rights, judgments or other encumbrances on assets of the Parent or any Subsidiary of the Parent held by such Guarantor.

Section 8.16 Limitation. It is the intention of the Guarantors and each Secured Party that the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by each Guarantor shall be in, but not in excess of, the maximum amount permitted by fraudulent conveyance, fraudulent transfer and similar Legal Requirement applicable to such Guarantor. Accordingly, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Article VIII or in any other agreement or instrument executed in connection with the payment of any of the Obligations guaranteed hereby, the amount of the Obligations guaranteed by any Guarantor under this Article VIII shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render such Guarantor’s obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of any other Legal Requirement.

Section 8.17 Contribution Rights.

(a) To the extent that any payment is made under this guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”), by a Guarantor, which Guarantor Payment, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by all other Guarantors, exceeds the amount which such Guarantor would otherwise have paid if each Guarantor had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion that such Guarantor’s Allocable Amount (as defined below) (in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of all of the Guarantors in effect immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following the date on which the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full and each Guarantor shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder, such Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be reimbursed by, each of the other Guarantors for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.

 

-118-


(b) As of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Guarantor shall be equal to the maximum amount of the claim which could then be recovered from such Guarantor under this guaranty without rendering such claim voidable or avoidable under Section 548 of Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or similar statute or common law.

(c) This Section 8.17 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Guarantors and nothing set forth in this Section 8.17 is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty.

(d) The rights of the parties under this Section 8.17 shall be exercisable upon the date the Obligations shall be paid and satisfied in full and each Guarantor shall have performed all of its obligations hereunder.

(e) The parties hereto acknowledge that the right of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of any Guarantor to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.

Section 8.18 Release of Guarantors. Upon the sale or disposition of any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to any Person other than the Borrower or any other Guarantor, the Administrative Agent shall, at the Borrower’ expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor such documents as such Guarantor shall reasonably require and take any other actions reasonably required to evidence or effect the release of such Guarantor from this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

-119-


individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent or an Issuing Bank hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 9.03 Exculpatory Provisions. None of the Agents or any Issuing Bank shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, none of the Agents or any Issuing Bank:

(a) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

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

None of the Agents or any Issuing Bank shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent or Issuing Bank shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 10.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct.

-120-


Section 9.04 Reliance by the Agents and the Issuing Banks. Each of the Agents and the Issuing Banks shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. Each of the Agents and the Issuing Banks also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the applicable Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. Either Agent or the applicable Issuing Bank may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for a Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.05 Delegation of Duties. Each of the Agents may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent. Each of the Agents and any of their respective sub-agents may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as such Agent.

Section 9.06 Resignation of an Agent or the Issuing Bank.

(a) An Agent may resign at any time by giving prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or, if no successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent has been appointed, forty-five (45) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its intention to resign. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders within thirty (30) days after the resigning Agent’s giving notice of its intention to resign, then the resigning Agent may appoint, on behalf of the Borrower and the Lenders, a successor Agent. If the Administrative Agent has resigned and no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the Majority Lenders may perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and the Borrower shall make all payments in respect of the Obligations to the applicable Lender and for all other purposes shall deal directly with the Majority Lenders until such successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed as provided herein. No successor Agent shall be deemed to be appointed hereunder until such

 

-121-


successor Agent has accepted the appointment or, in the case of a successor Collateral Agent, upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Security Documents, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Majority Lenders may request, in order to continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Security Documents. Any such successor Agent shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof having combined capital and retained earnings of at least $100,000,000 (or the equivalent in any other currency) unless such requirement is waived by the Majority Lenders. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent hereunder by a successor Agent, such successor Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the resigning Agent. Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, the resigning Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the Credit Documents. After the effectiveness of the resignation of an Agent, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for the benefit of such Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, for purposes of any Security Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the Netherlands, any resignation by the Collateral Agent shall not be effective until its rights under the Parallel Debt (as defined in Section 9.09 hereof) are assigned to the successor Collateral Agent.

(b) Subject to the terms of this paragraph, Credit Agricole CIB may resign at any time from its capacity as an Issuing Bank hereunder. In connection with such resignation, Credit Agricole CIB shall give notice of its intent to resign to the Borrower. The requested resignation shall become effective on the date specified therefor in such notice (which shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice); provided that no such resignation shall become effective until and unless (i) another Person shall have been designated as an Issuing Bank hereunder by the Borrower, and shall have accepted such designation and appointment, pursuant to Section 2.03(l) and (ii) if the acceptance of such designation and appointment shall have occurred more than 360 days prior to the date of such notice, the Borrower shall have provided its prior written consent to such resignation (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Upon the effectiveness of the resignation of Credit Agricole CIB from its capacity as an Issuing Bank, Credit Agricole CIB shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit, or to increase or extend the expiration of any Letter of Credit theretofore issued by it, but shall otherwise remain subject to its duties and obligations hereunder, and shall have all the rights of an Issuing Bank, with respect to any Letter of Credit theretofore issued by it. Notwithstanding the effectiveness of the resignation of Credit Agricole CIB from its capacity as an Issuing Bank hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as an Issuing Bank hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.07 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders; Certain Acknowledgments.

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and

 

-122-


decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder. In this regard, each party hereto acknowledges that Bracewell & Giuliani LLP is acting in this transaction as special counsel to the Administrative Agent only. Each other party hereto will consult with its own legal counsel to the extent that it deems necessary in connection with the Loan Documents and the matters contemplated therein.

(b) Each Lender shall be deemed (i) by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and making any Loan on the Effective Date to have consented to, approved or accepted each Loan Document and each other document or other matter referred to in Section 3.01 or 3.02 required to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers or the Lenders and to have been satisfied with the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent required to be satisfied under Section 3.01 or 3.02 and (b) by making any Revolving Advance after the Effective Date to have been satisfied with the satisfaction of the conditions precedent required to be satisfied in connection therewith under Section 3.02.

Section 9.08 Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify upon demand the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks and each Related Party of any of the foregoing (to the extent not reimbursed by the Loan Parties), according to their respective ratable shares, and hold harmless such Indemnitee from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities in all cases, whether or not caused by or arising, in whole or in part, out of the negligence of any Related Party; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for (a) the payment to any Indemnitee for any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities to the extent determined in a final, nonappealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnitee’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct and (b) claims made or legal proceedings commenced against such Indemnitee by any security holder or creditor thereof arising out of and based on rights afforded any such security holder or creditor solely in its capacity as such; provided further, however, that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Majority Lenders shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and the Issuing Banks promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including all fees, expenses and disbursements of any law firm or other external counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or the Issuing Banks in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings, or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, to the extent that the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or any Issuing Bank is not reimbursed for such by the Loan Parties. The undertaking in this Section shall survive termination of the Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent.

Section 9.09 Collateral and Guaranty Matters.

 

-123-


(a) Each Lender (as a Lender and in its capacity as a potential Hedge Counterparty) and each other Secured Party (by their acceptance of the benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) acknowledges and agrees that the Collateral Agent has entered into the Security Documents on behalf of itself and the Secured Parties, and the Secured Parties hereby agree to be bound by the terms of such Security Documents, acknowledge receipt of copies of such Security Documents and consent to the rights, powers, remedies, indemnities and exculpations given to the Collateral Agent thereunder; provided, that with respect to any Security Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the Netherlands the Collateral Agent enters into such Security Document in its own name and on behalf of itself and not as agent, but for the benefit of the Secured Parties as further expressed therein. All rights, powers and remedies available to the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties with respect to the Collateral, or otherwise pursuant to the Security Documents, shall be subject to the provisions of such Security Documents. Without prejudice to the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree with the creation of parallel debt obligations as will be described in any Security Document expressed to be governed by the laws of the Netherlands (the “Parallel Debt”), including that any payment irrevocably received by the Collateral Agent in respect of the Parallel Debt will be deemed a satisfaction of a pro rata portion of the corresponding amounts of the Obligations, and any payment to the Secured Parties in satisfaction of the Obligations shall be deemed as satisfaction of the corresponding amount of the Parallel Debt.

(b) Each Lender (as a Lender and in its capacity as a potential Hedge Counterparty) and each other Secured Party (by their acceptance of the benefits of any Lien encumbering Collateral) hereby authorizes the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from the Secured Parties:

(i) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Security Document (i) as provided in Section 10.15 or any Security Document or (ii) subject to Section 10.01, if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Majority Lenders;

(ii) to take any actions with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain Acceptable Security Interests in and Liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents;

(iii) to take any action in exigent circumstances as may be reasonably necessary to preserve any rights or privileges of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents or applicable Legal Requirements; and

(iv) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.01(d) or 6.01(f).

(c) Upon the request of the Collateral Agent at any time, the Secured Parties will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 9.09.

 

-124-


(d) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably appoints the Collateral Agent as such Loan Party’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority to, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, act for such Loan Party and in the name of such Loan Party to, in the Collateral Agent’s discretion upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto, relative to all or any part of the Collateral without the signature of such Loan Party where permitted by law, (ii) to receive, endorse, and collect any drafts or other instruments, documents, and chattel paper which are part of the Collateral, (iii) to ask, demand, collect, sue for, recover, compromise, receive, and give acquittance and receipts for moneys due and to become due under or in respect of any of the Collateral, (iv) to file any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Collateral Agent may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the collection of any of the Collateral or otherwise to enforce the rights of the Collateral Agent with respect to any of the Collateral and (v) if any Loan Party fails to perform any covenant contained in this Agreement or the other Security Documents relating to the Collateral after the expiration of any applicable grace periods, the Collateral Agent may itself perform, or cause performance of, such covenant, and such Loan Party shall pay for the expenses of the Collateral Agent incurred in connection therewith in accordance with Section 10.04. The power of attorney granted hereby is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

(e) The powers conferred on the Collateral Agent under this Agreement and the other Security Documents are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Beyond the safe custody thereof, the Collateral Agent and each Secured Party shall have no duty with respect to any Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of any agent or bailee) or with respect to any income thereon or the preservation of rights against prior parties or any other rights pertaining thereto. The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Collateral Agent accords its own property. None of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender or any other Secured Party shall be liable or responsible for any loss or damage to any of the Collateral, or for any diminution in the value thereof, by reason of the act or omission of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, consignee, broker or other agent or bailee selected by Borrower or selected by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in good faith.

Section 9.10 No Other Duties, Etc. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Arrangers, the Syndication Agent, the Co-Documentation Agents and the Bookrunners listed on the cover page hereof shall not have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, a Lender or an Issuing Bank.

Section 9.11 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or Letter of Credit Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

 

-125-


(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.06 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.06 and 10.04.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Bank or in any such proceeding.

relating to Section 3.02) or any other Loan Document, including any amendment of any affirmative or negative covenant set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or an Event of Default, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any condition set forth in Section 3.02);

(f) change any provision of this Section, or the percentage specified in the definition of “Majority Lenders,” “Majority Revolving Lenders,” or “Majority Term Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby;

-127-


(i) change Section 10.06 in a manner that imposes additional restrictions on the ability of any Lender under any Facility to assign any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of (i) if such Facility is the Term Loan Facility, the Majority Term Lenders and (ii) if such Facility is the Revolving Credit Facility, the Majority Revolving Lenders;

and, provided further, that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the applicable Issuing Bank in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of such Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any Letter of Credit Application relating to any Letter of Credit issued or to be issued by it; (ii) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the applicable Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of such Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and (iii) Section 10.06(g) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by a SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder or under any other Loan Document (and any amendment, waiver or consent which by its terms requires the consent of all Lenders, all Lenders or a majority in interest of Lenders under any Facility or each affected Lender may be effected with the consent of the applicable Lenders other than Defaulting Lender); provided that any such amendment, waiver or consent referred to in clause (b), (c) or (d) above that, but for this sentence, would require the prior written consent of such Defaulting Lender, will continue to require the consent of such Defaulting Lender; and provided further that any such amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that by its terms affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than any other Lender whose consent is so required shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

The Administrative Agent may also require that any such documents and signatures be confirmed by a manually-signed original thereof; provided, however, that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any facsimile document or signature.

(c) Limited Use of Electronic Mail. Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Article II if such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving notices under such Article by electronic communication.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-

 

-129-


INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties (collectively, the “Agent Parties”) have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent Party; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent Party have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for indirect, special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

(e) Reliance by Agents, the Issuing Banks and Lenders. Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic borrowing notices) purportedly given by or on behalf of a Loan Party even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agents, each Issuing Bank, each Lender and their Related Parties from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with any Agent or any Issuing Bank may be recorded by such Agent or Issuing Bank, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

Section 10.03 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement. No failure on the part of any Lender, any Agent or any Issuing Bank to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder 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, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 7.02, 7.03 and 7.04 for the benefit of all the Lenders and the Issuing Banks; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) each Issuing Bank from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Bank) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (c) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 7.05 (subject to the terms of Section 2.14), or (d) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided, further, that if at any time there is no Person acting as Administrative Agent

 

-130-


hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Majority Lenders shall have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Sections 7.02, 7.03 and 7.04 and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.14, any Lender may, with the consent of the Majority Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Majority Lenders.

Section 10.04 Costs and Expenses. The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Banks and their Affiliates (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside counsel for the Administrative Agent and for one counsel to the Arrangers and, as required, local or regulatory counsel in any applicable jurisdiction), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Issuing Banks in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Agent, any Arranger, any Lender or any Issuing Bank (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any outside counsel for any Agent, any Arranger, any Lender or any Issuing Bank), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights (A) in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or (B) in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit.

Section 10.05 Indemnification. The Loan Parties shall indemnify each Agent, each Lender, each Arranger and each Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments and suits, and all related costs, expenses, or disbursements (including all fees, expenses and disbursements of any law firm or other outside counsel) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or administration of this Agreement, any Loan Document, or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, (b) any Commitment, Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by any Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (c) any action taken or omitted by any Agent or any Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including such Agent’s or Issuing

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LEGAL REQUIREMENTS, NO LOAN PARTY SHALL ASSERT, AND HEREBY WAIVES, ANY CLAIM AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, ON ANY THEORY OF LIABILITY, FOR SPECIAL, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (AS OPPOSED TO DIRECT OR ACTUAL DAMAGES) ARISING OUT OF, IN CONNECTION WITH, OR AS A RESULT OF, THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY AGREEMENT OR INSTRUMENT CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY, ANY LOAN OR LETTER OF CREDIT OR THE USE OF THE PROCEEDS THEREOF. NO INDEMNITEE SHALL BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES ARISING FROM THE USE BY UNINTENDED RECIPIENTS OF ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER MATERIALS DISTRIBUTED BY IT THROUGH TELECOMMUNICATIONS, ELECTRONIC OR OTHER INFORMATION TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY.

ALL AMOUNTS DUE UNDER THIS SECTION 10.05 SHALL BE PAYABLE WITHIN TEN (10) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER DEMAND THEREFOR. THE AGREEMENTS IN THIS SECTION SHALL SURVIVE THE RESIGNATION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE REPLACEMENT OF ANY LENDER, THE TERMINATION OF THE COMMITMENTS AND THE REPAYMENT, SATISFACTION OR DISCHARGE OF ALL THE OTHER OBLIGATIONS.

Section 10.06 Successors and Assigns.

(a) Generally. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that no Loan Party may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly permitted hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (d) of this Section, (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of paragraph (f) or (h) of this Section or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (g) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in

 

-132-


this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in paragraph (d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Indemnitees) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments (including, for purposes of this Section 10.06(b), participations in Letters of Credit) and the Loans at the time owing to it (it being understood that, in connection with any assignment by any Non-Extending Revolving Lender of all or any portion of its Non-Extended Revolving Commitment, such Non-Extended Revolving Commitment (or such portion thereof) may be converted to an Extended Revolving Commitment pursuant to Section 2.18); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions:

(i) Minimum Amounts.

(A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment under any Facility or the Loans at the time owing to it under such Facility or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and

(B) in any case not described in paragraph (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this purpose includes Loans outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if “Trade Date” is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than (1) $5,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, or (2) $1,000,000, in the case of any assignment in respect of the Term Loan Facility, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met.

(ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loan or the Commitment assigned, except that this clause (ii) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.

 

-133-


(iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by paragraph (b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition:

(A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (1) for assignments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility if such assignment is to a Person that is not Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or any Approved Fund with respect to such Lender, provided that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and (2) for assignments to (x) any competitor of the Borrower or (y) Tenaska Power Fund, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership, or any of its Affiliates; provided that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to any such assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (1) for assignments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility if such assignment is to a Person that is not a Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to such Lender or (2) for assignments of Term Commitments to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and

(C) the consent of the Issuing Banks (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

(iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, elect to waive such processing and recordation fee in the case of any assignment; and provided, further, that only one such fee shall be payable in the event of contemporaneous assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group). The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.

(vi) Defaulting Lenders. No assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons.

(vii) No Assignment to Non-Extending Revolving Lenders. No assignment shall be made from an Extending Revolving Lender to a Non-Extending Revolving Lender that results in such Extending Revolving Lender’s Extended Revolving Commitment being designated a Non-Extended Revolving Commitment.

 

-134-


Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, (A) the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto for all purposes and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (B) such assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with subsection (d) of this Section.

In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall 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 sub-participations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans 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 or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit in accordance with its Applicable Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its Applicable Lending Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans owing 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 each of the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks, and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

-135-


(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s or a Defaulting Lender’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in Letter of Credit Obligations) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 10.04 and 10.05 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 7.05 as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.14 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.11 or 2.13 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’ prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.13 unless the Borrower are notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.13(e) and Section 2.13(f) as though it were a Lender.

(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any

 

-136-


pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan or Deposit that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan or Deposit, and (ii) if a SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan or Deposit, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan or Deposit by a SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan or Deposit were made by such Granting Lender. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any SPC, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPC any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency, or liquidation proceeding under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities, provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.06, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

Section 10.07 Confidentiality. Each of the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party or any of their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to an Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a non-confidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party, provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the Closing Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

Section 10.08 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Upon execution and delivery by any Guarantor of a counterpart hereto, such Guarantor shall become party hereto and a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally a party hereto. The execution and delivery of a counterpart hereto by any Guarantor shall not require the consent of any other party hereto, and the rights and obligations hereunder of the other parties hereto shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any Guarantor as a party hereto.

Section 10.09 Survival of Representations; Termination. (a) All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Agents, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Loan, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

 

-138-


(b) This Agreement and each other Loan Document, and the covenants and agreements set forth herein and therein, and, in the case of any Security Document, all security interests and other Liens created thereunder, shall terminate upon the payment in full of all principal of and any accrued interest on any Loan and all fees and other amounts payable under this Agreement, the termination or expiration of all Letters of Credit (other than any Letter of Credit with respect to which the applicable Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations in respect thereof (whether as a result of the obligations of the Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with the applicable Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that names the applicable Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise)) and the termination or expiration of the Commitments; provided that the provisions of Sections 2.09(f), 2.10, 2.11, 2.13, 10.04, 10.05, 10.07 and Article IX, and any other provision set forth herein or therein that by its terms survives the termination of this Agreement or such other Loan Document, shall survive and remain in full force and effect.

Section 10.10 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.10, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

Section 10.11 Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of any Loan Party is made to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, such Issuing Bank or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender and each Issuing Bank severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, in the applicable currency of such recovery or payment.

The Borrower, each Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender irrevocably waives any objection, including any objection to the laying of venue or based on the grounds of forum non conveniens, which it may now or hereafter have to the bringing of any action or proceeding in such jurisdiction in respect of any Loan Document or other document related thereto. The Borrower, each Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Lender waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other process, which may be made by any other means permitted by the law of such state.

(b) Each Loan Party (other than the Parent) hereby irrevocably appoints the Parent as its agent to receive on its behalf and on behalf of its property service of copies of any summons or complaint or any other process which may be served in any action. Such service may be made by mailing or delivering a copy of such process to such Loan Party in care of the Parent at the Parent’s address set forth in Section 10.02, and each such Loan Party hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Parent to accept such service on its behalf. As an alternative method of service, each Loan Party also irrevocably consents to the service of any and all process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies of such process to it at the address specified for it in Section 10.02.

(c) Nothing in this Section 10.13 shall affect the right of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any other Lender to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law or affect the right of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to bring any action or proceeding against any Loan Party (as the Borrower or as a Guarantor) in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.14 Waiver of Jury. Each party to this Agreement hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any right to trial by jury of any claim, demand, action or cause of action arising under any Loan Document or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto or any of them with respect to any Loan Document, or the transactions related thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether founded in contract or tort or otherwise; and each party hereby agrees and consents that any such claim, demand, action or cause of action shall be decided by court trial without a jury, and that any party to this Agreement may file an original counterpart or a copy of this Section with any court as written evidence of the consent of the signatories hereto to the waiver of their right to trial by jury.

Section 10.15 Collateral Matters; Hedging Counterparties. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document, a Guarantor (other than the Parent) shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Guarantor shall be

 

-140-


automatically released, upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Majority Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale or other disposition by any Loan Party (other than to any other Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Security Document in any Collateral pursuant to Section 10.01, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 10.15(a), the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent.

(a) No Hedging Counterparty shall have any voting rights under any Loan Document, or any right to direct any Agent to take or omit from taking any action, as a result of the existence of obligations owed to it under any Hedging Arrangements or such obligations being Guaranteed by the Loan Parties or secured by any Collateral.

Section 10.16 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Loan Party hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) 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 the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main New York office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of any sum due to any Secured Party hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Secured Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Secured Party may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Secured Party in the specified currency, each Loan Party agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Secured Party against such loss.

Section 10.17 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the final agreement among the parties and may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties.

Section 10.19 Amendment and Restatement. It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Original Credit Agreement be amended and restated so as to preserve the perfection and priority of all security interests securing indebtedness and obligations under the Original Credit Agreement and that all Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and thereunder shall be secured by the Security Documents and that this Agreement does not constitute a novation of the obligations and liabilities existing under the Original Credit Agreement; provided that all Loans outstanding under the Original Credit Agreement shall continue as Loans under this Agreement (and, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, with the same Interest Periods as were applicable to such Eurocurrency Rate Loans immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date). Upon the effectiveness of this Agreement in accordance with the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, each Loan Document that was in effect immediately prior to the Restatement Effective Date shall continue to be effective, unless the context requires otherwise. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that this Agreement constitutes an amendment of the Original Credit Agreement made under and in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 of the Original Credit Agreement. The parties hereto further acknowledge and agree that, unless specifically amended hereby or by the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, each of the Loan Documents and the Exhibits and Schedules to the Original Credit Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and that, from and after the Restatement Effective Date, all references to the “Credit Agreement” contained therein shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement.

Section 10.20 Amendments to Financial Covenants. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.01, no amendment or waiver of any provision of Section 6.16 or 6.17 (or of related definitions of financial terms as used therein), or any consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Majority Term Lenders and the Majority Revolving Lenders.

Employers Mutual Casualty Company v. Oncor v. Flowers

A $1.6 million judgment was entered against Oncor on a breach of contract with property developers who claim that in 1998 Oncor placed a line outside an easement damaging the developers use of the property. The judgment is on appeal. Flower’s insurer accepted Oncor’s defense, but after judgment exercised its reservation of rights because the judgment was entered on a breach of contract theory, rather than a tort theory. The insurer filed a separate suit seeking a declaration of rights that it does not owe Oncor indemnity for the judgment. Oncor filed a third party action against Flowers claiming that if the insurer does not owe coverage then Flowers would owe Oncor contractual indemnity. The declaratory judgment action has been abated pending the outcome of the appeal.
