("Bank of America"), Banc of America Bridge LLC ("Banc of America Bridge") and Banc of America Securities LLC dated as of December 20, 2000 (the "Bank Commitment Letter"), is included in Section 2.2(c) of the Holdings Disclosure Schedule. Pursuant to the Bank Commitment Letter and subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, (i) Bank of America has committed to provide senior debt financing to Merger Sub in the amount of $470,000,000, consisting of a $370,000,000 term loan and a $100,000,000 revolving credit facility and Banc of America Bridge has committed to purchase unsecured senior subordinated debt securities of the Company in the aggregate amount of $200,000,000. The Company has also received a copy of a commitment letter, a true and correct copy of which is included in Section 2.2(b) of the Holdings Disclosure Schedule (the "Vestar Commitment Letter"), dated December 20, 2000 from Vestar Capital Partners IV, L.P. ("Vestar") pursuant to which Vestar has committed, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, to purchase equity securities of Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $133,900,405. The Company has also received a copy of a commitment letter, a true and correct copy of which is included in Section 2.2(c) of the Holdings Disclosure Schedule (the "Marathon Fund Commitment Letter" and, together with the Bank Commitment Letter and the Vestar Commitment Letter, the "Commitment Letters" and the financing to be provided thereunder, the "Financing"), dated December 20, 2000 from Marathon Fund Limited Partnership IV ("Marathon") pursuant to which Marathon has committed, subject to the terms and conditions contained therein, to purchase equity securities of Investors for an aggregate purchase price of $35,000,000. The obligations to fund the commitments under the Commitment Letters are not subject to any condition other than set forth in the Commitment Letters. Holdings and Merger Sub have no actual knowledge of any fact or occurrence existing on the date of this Agreement which in their good faith judgment would reasonably be expected to (i) make the material assumptions or statements set forth in the Bank Commitment Letter inaccurate, (ii) cause the Bank Commitment Letter to be ineffective or (iii) preclude in any material respect the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the Bank Commitment Letter. As of the date hereof, the Commitment Letters are in full force and effect and have not been amended in any material respect. To the knowledge of Holdings and Merger Sub, assuming all of the representations and warranties of the Company set forth herein are true, the funds contemplated to be received pursuant to the Commitment Letters together with the roll over contributions to be made as set forth in the Management Equity Agreements and the Other Equity Agreements will be sufficient to consummate the Merger and to pay all related fees and expenses. The financing and other fees that are due and payable under the Commitment Letters have been paid in full. Holdings and Merger Sub believe that, upon consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Financing, (i) the Surviving Corporation will not be insolvent, (ii) the Surviving Corporation will not be left with unreasonably small capital, (iii) the Surviving Corporation will not have incurred debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature and (iv) the capital of the Surviving Corporation will not be impaired.
