AMENDMENT TO
MULTI-YEAR REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT
(as amended and restated as of May 8, 1996)
This Amendment to Multi-Year Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of August
7, 1997 (this "Amendment"), is among TRW Inc., an Ohio corporation (the
"Company") and the financial institutions listed on the signature pages hereof
together with their successors or assigns (collectively, the "Banks" and
individually, a "Bank").
W I T N E S S E T H:
--------------------
WHEREAS, on July 1, 1992, the Company and the Banks entered into the
Three-Year Revolving Credit Agreement (as it was then titled), which agreement
was amended on June 30, 1993, March 1, 1994, February 28, 1995, and amended and
restated as of May 8, 1996 (such agreement, as amended and restated, is known
hereinafter as the "Agreement"); and
WHEREAS, the Company and the Banks have agreed to make such changes to the
Agreement as are reflected in this Amendment;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein,
the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1 THE AMENDMENTS
1.1 AMENDMENT TO "TERMINATION DATE" DEFINITION. The definition of
"Termination Date" set forth in Section 13 shall be amended to read in its
entirety as follows:
"TERMINATION DATE" means the earlier to occur of (a) July 1, 2002,
subject to extension for one or more successive one-year periods as to any
Bank or Banks pursuant to Section 1.2, or (b) such other date on which the
Commitments shall terminate pursuant to Section 11.2.
1.2 AMENDMENT OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS CROSS-DEFAULT. Section 11.1.2 shall be
amended to read in its entirety as follows:
11.1.2 NONPAYMENT OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS FOR BORROWED MONEY. Default in
the payment when due at maturity (subject to any applicable grace period)
or by acceleration of any other indebtedness for borrowed money having a
principal amount in excess of 50,000,000 U.S. Dollars of, or guaranteed by,
the Company ("Other Indebtedness"), or default in the performance or
observance of any obligation or condition with respect to any such Other
Indebtedness if such default results in the
-1-
3
acceleration of the maturity of any such Other Indebtedness; provided,
that, if such default shall subsequently be remedied, cured, or waived
prior to either the termination of Commitments or the declaration that all
Loans are immediately due and payable, in each case pursuant to Section
11.2 hereof, and as a result the payment of such Other Indebtedness is no
longer due, the Event of Default existing hereunder by reason thereof shall
likewise be deemed thereupon to be remedied, cured, or waived and no longer
in existence, all without any further action by the parties hereto.
SECTION 2 GENERAL
2.1 REISSUANCE OF NOTES. In connection with the effectiveness of this
Amendment, the Company shall issue to each of the Banks Notes in the principal
amounts set forth next to such Bank's name in the signature blocks below, such
Note shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit A to the Agreement with the
dates therein changed to reflect this Amendment. Contemporaneously with the
issuance of such Notes, the Notes dated May 8, 1996 currently pertaining to the
Agreement shall be deemed null and void and each Bank shall cancel and return to
the Company each such Note pertaining to the Agreement currently in such Bank's
possession.
2.2 OTHER TERMS AND CONDITIONS. Unless amended hereby, all other terms and
conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without
change.
2.3 GOVERNING LAW. This Amendment and each Note issued pursuant hereto
shall be a contract made under and governed by the internal laws of the State of
Ohio. Wherever possible each provision of this Amendment shall be interpreted in
such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any
provision of this Amendment shall be prohibited by or invalid under such law,
such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Amendment. All obligations of the Company and
rights of the Banks and any other holders of the Notes expressed herein or in
the Notes shall be in addition to and not in limitation of those provided by
applicable law.
2.4 COUNTERPARTS. This Amendment may be executed in any number of
counterparts and by the different parties on separate counterparts and each such
counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall
together constitute but one and the same Amendment. When counterparts executed
by all the parties shall have been lodged with the Company (or, in the case of
any Bank as to which an executed counterpart shall not have been so lodged, the
Company shall have received telegraphic, telex, or other written confirmation
from such Bank of execution of a counterpart hereof by such Bank), this
Amendment shall become effective as of the date hereof.
