Nothing expressed or implied in this Agreement, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement or any other document contemplated hereby or thereby shall be construed as a release or other discharge of the Borrower under either of the Existing Credit Agreements or the Borrower or any other Loan Party under any Loan Document from any of its obligations and liabilities thereunder, and such obligations are in all respects continuing with only the terms being modified as provided in this Agreement and in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to the Existing Bank Debt Refinancing). Each of the Existing Credit Agreements and each of the other Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect, until and except as modified hereby.

AMENDED AND RESTATED CREDIT AGREEMENT dated as of February 28, 2013 (this “Agreement”), among TRANSDIGM INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), TRANSDIGM GROUP INCORPORATED, a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), each subsidiary of the Borrower from time to time party hereto, the Lenders (as defined in Article I) and CREDIT SUISSE AG, as administrative agent and collateral agent for the Lenders hereunder (in such capacities, the “Agent”).
The Borrower, Holdings, certain Lenders and the Agent are party to (a) that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 6, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated as of March 25, 2011 and Amendment No. 2 dated as of October 9, 2012 (the “2010 Credit Agreement”) and (b) that certain Credit Agreement dated as of February 14, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 1 and Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement dated as of February 15, 2012 and Amendment No. 2 and Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement dated as of October 9, 2012 (the “2011 Credit Agreement” and, together with the 2010 Credit Agreement, the “Existing Credit Agreements”). Pursuant to the Amendment and Restatement Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Amendment and Restatement Agreement”), among the Borrower, Holdings, each subsidiary of the Borrower party thereto, the lenders party thereto and the Agent, and upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth therein, the Existing Credit Agreements (including all exhibits and schedules thereto) shall be amended and restated in their entirety and replaced by a single agreement in the form of this Agreement.
The Borrower has requested the Lenders to extend credit in the form of (a) Term Loans (such term and each other capitalized term used but not defined in this introductory statement having the meaning given it in Article I) on the Restatement Date in an aggregate principal amount not in excess of $2,200,000,000 and (b) Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit at any time and from time to time prior to the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not in excess of $310,000,000. The proceeds of the Term Loans are to be used solely to finance the Existing Bank Debt Refinancing and to pay the Transaction Costs. The proceeds of the Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit are to be used solely for general corporate purposes.
The Lenders are willing to extend such credit to the Borrower, and the Issuing Bank is willing to issue Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, in each case on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I
Definitions
SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below:
“2010 Credit Agreement” has the meaning assigned to such term in the introductory statement to this Agreement.
“2011 Credit Agreement” has the meaning assigned to such term in the introductory statement to this Agreement.
“ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate.
“Accepting Lenders” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.25(a).
“Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, for any Interest Period, the rate per annum equal to the greater of (a) (x) 1.50% per annum, with respect to Revolving A Loans or (y) 0.75% per annum, with respect to Term Loans or Revolving B Loans, and (b) the rate obtained by dividing (i) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period by (ii) a percentage equal to 1 minus the stated maximum rate (stated as a decimal) of all reserves, if any, required to be maintained against “Eurocurrency liabilities” as specified in Regulation D (including any marginal, emergency, special or supplemental reserves).
“Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in the form of Exhibit A, or such other form as may be supplied from time to time by the Agent.
“Affected Class” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.25(a).
“Affiliate” means, with respect to any specified Person, any other Person who directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such specified Person. The term “control” means the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise, and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” have meanings correlative of the foregoing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person (other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower) in whom a Securitization Entity makes an Investment in connection with a Securitization Transaction shall be deemed to be an Affiliate of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries solely by reason of such Investment.
“Affiliate Transaction” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 6.08.
“Agent” has the meaning assigned to such term in the preamble to this Agreement.
“Agent Fees” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.11(b).
2
“Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure” means the aggregate amount of the Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures.
“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) (x) 2.50% per annum, with respect to Revolving A Loans or (y) 1.75% per annum, with respect to Term Loans or Revolving B Loans, (b) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (c) the Federal Funds Effective Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (d) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the applicable Loan on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) for a deposit in Dollars with a maturity of three months plus 1%; provided that, solely for purposes of the foregoing, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be calculated using the LIBO Rate based on the rate per annum determined by the Agent on such day at approximately 11:00 a.m. (London time) by reference to the British Bankers’ Association Interest Settlement Rates for deposits in Dollars (as set forth by any service selected by the Agent that has been nominated by the British Bankers’ Association as an authorized information vendor for the purpose of displaying such rates) for a period equal to three months. If the Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms of the definition of Federal Funds Effective Rate, the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (c) or (d), as applicable, of the preceding sentence until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively.
“Amendment and Restatement Agreement” has the meaning assigned to such term in the introductory statement to this Agreement.
“Applicable Percentage” means, with respect to any Lender, a percentage equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans (or, if no Loans are then outstanding, the Commitment) of such Lender and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Loans (or, if no Loans are then outstanding, the Commitments) of all Lenders.
“Applicable Rate” means, for any day:
(a) with respect to Revolving A Loans, (i) for LIBO Rate Loans, 3.75% per annum, and (ii) for ABR Loans (including with respect to any Swingline Loan attributable thereto), 2.75% per annum;

SECTION 1.02. Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving B Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a “LIBO Rate Loan”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “LIBO Rate Revolving B Loan”). Borrowings may also be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving B Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a “LIBO Rate Borrowing”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “LIBO Rate Revolving B Borrowing”).
SECTION 1.03. Terms Generally. The definitions of terms herein shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be deemed to be followed by the phrase “without limitation”. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, the term “consolidated” with respect to any Person refers to such Person consolidated with its Restricted Subsidiaries, and excludes from such consolidation any Unrestricted Subsidiary as if such Unrestricted Subsidiary were not an Affiliate of such Person. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. Unless the context requires otherwise (a) any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument or other document herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument or other document as from time to time amended, supplemented or otherwise modified (subject to any restrictions on such amendments, supplements or modifications set forth herein), (b) any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns, (c) the words “herein”, “hereof” and “hereunder”, and words of similar import, shall be construed to refer to this Agreement in its entirety and not to any particular provision hereof, (d) all references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be construed to refer to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement and (e) the words “asset” and “property” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect and to refer to any and all tangible and intangible assets and properties, including cash, securities, accounts and contract rights.
SECTION 1.04. Effectuation of Transactions. Each of the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties contained in this Agreement (and all corresponding definitions) are made after giving effect to the Transactions, unless the context otherwise requires.
SECTION 1.05. Accounting Terms; GAAP. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP or, if not defined in GAAP (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) as determined by the Borrower in good faith, as in effect from time to time; provided that, to the extent set forth in the definition of “GAAP”, if the Borrower notifies the Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the Restatement Date in
58
GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision thereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.
SECTION 1.06. Designated Senior Debt. The Loans and other Obligations under the Loan Documents constitute “Senior Debt” and “Designated Senior Debt”, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents collectively constitute the “Credit Facility”, for the purposes of the Senior Subordinated Notes Documents.
SECTION 1.07. Pro Forma Calculations. With respect to any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters during which any Permitted Acquisition or Asset Sale occurs (and for purposes of determining whether an acquisition is a Permitted Acquisition or whether the Borrower may take any actions requiring compliance with a specified ratio), the Consolidated Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio shall be calculated with respect to such period on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Permitted Acquisition or Asset Sale (and any related repayment or incurrence of Indebtedness) (including, without duplication, (a) all pro forma adjustments permitted or required by Article 11 of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and (b) pro forma adjustments for cost savings and other operating efficiencies (net of continuing associated expenses) to the extent the actions underlying such cost savings and operating efficiencies have been or are reasonably expected to be implemented and such cost savings and operating efficiencies are factually supportable, are expected to have a continuing impact and have been realized or are reasonably expected to be realized within 12 months following such Permitted Acquisition or Asset Sale; provided that all such adjustments shall be set forth in a reasonably detailed certificate of a Financial Officer of the Borrower), using, for purposes of making such calculations, the historical financial statements of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries which shall be reformulated as if such Permitted Acquisition or Asset Sale, and any other Permitted Acquisitions and Asset Sales that have been consummated during the period, had been consummated on the first day of such period.
ARTICLE II
The Credits
SECTION 2.01. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, (i) to make a Tranche B Term Loan to the Borrower on the Restatement Date, in a principal amount not to exceed its Tranche B Term Loan Commitment, (ii) to make a Tranche C Term Loan to the Borrower on the Restatement Date, in a principal amount not to exceed its Tranche C Term Loan Commitment, (iii) to make Revolving A Loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time on or after the Restatement Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving A Credit
59
Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Revolving A Credit Lender’s Revolving A Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving A Credit Commitment and (iv) to make Revolving B Loans to the Borrower, at any time and from time to time on or after the Restatement Date and until the earlier of the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving B Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that would not result in such Revolving B Lender’s Revolving B Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving B Credit Commitment. Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans; provided that until the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, any such borrowing, payment, prepayment or reborrowing shall be allocated ratably according to the Pro Rata Percentages of each Revolving Credit Lender without regard to the Class of Revolving Credit Commitments held by such Revolving Credit Lender. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
(b) Each Lender having an Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Revolving Loans to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in such Lender’s Incremental Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment. Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Incremental Revolving Loans.
(c) Each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment hereby agrees, severally and not jointly, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower, in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed its Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Each Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. Except for Swingline Loans and Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(e), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) (A) in the case of a Revolving Borrowing, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $1,000,000 (except with respect to any Incremental Revolving Credit Borrowing, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement) or (B) in the case of a Term Loan Borrowing, an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000 (except with
60
respect to any Incremental Term Borrowing, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement) or (ii) in the case of any Borrowing, equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.
(b) Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or LIBO Rate Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any LIBO Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that (i) any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) in exercising such option, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to minimize any increase in the Adjusted LIBO Rate or increased costs to the Borrower resulting therefrom (which obligation of such Lender shall not require it to take, or refrain from taking, actions that it determines would result in increased costs for which it will not be compensated hereunder or that it otherwise determines would be disadvantageous to it and in the event of such request for costs for which compensation is provided under this Agreement, the provisions of Section 2.14 shall apply) and (iii) such branch or Affiliate of such Lender would not be included in clause (z) of the first proviso to the definition of the term “Eligible Assignee” set forth in Section 1.01.
(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any LIBO Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall comprise an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. Each ABR Borrowing when made shall be in a minimum principal amount of $1,000,000; provided that an ABR Borrowing may be maintained in a lesser amount equal to the difference between the aggregate principal amount of all other Borrowings and the total amount of Loans at such time outstanding. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten different Interest Periods in effect for LIBO Rate Borrowings at any time outstanding.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date or applicable Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be.
(e) If the Issuing Bank shall not have received from the Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.23(e) within the time specified in such Section, the Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Agent of the L/C Disbursement and the Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Agent not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Credit Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on any day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (it being understood that such amount shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and
61
such payment shall be deemed to have reduced the L/C Exposure), and the Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from the Revolving Credit Lenders. The Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.23(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (e); any such amounts received by the Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Agent as provided above, such Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.
SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowing. (a) In order to request a Borrowing (other than a Swingline Loan or a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(e), as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such request either in writing by delivery of a Borrowing Request (by hand or facsimile) signed by the Borrower or by telephone (to be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile of written notice) not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, (A) in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, three (3) Business Days before a proposed Borrowing (or such later time as shall be acceptable to the Agent) and (B) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, one (1) Business Day before a proposed Borrowing (or such later time as shall be acceptable to the Agent). Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:
(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing;
(ii) the date of the Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Tranche B Term Borrowing, a Tranche C Term Borrowing, an Incremental Term Borrowing, a Revolving Borrowing or an Incremental Revolving Credit Borrowing, and whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing;
(iv) in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”; and
(v) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed;
62
provided, however, that notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02 and Section 2.04.
(b) If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any LIBO Rate Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of the Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.
SECTION 2.04. Funding of Borrowings. (a) Except with respect to Swingline Loans and Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(e), each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 (noon), New York City time, to the account of the Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders.
(b) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 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 share of the Borrowing available to the Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender pays such amount to the Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments or to prejudice any rights which the Agent or the Borrower or any Loan Party may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.
SECTION 2.05. Type; Interest Elections. (a) Loans shall initially be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert all or any portion of any Borrowing (subject to the minimum amounts for Borrowings of the applicable Type specified in Section 2.02(c)) to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the
63
Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing.
(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Agent of such election by telephone (i) in the case of an election to convert to or continue as a LIBO Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed conversion or continuation or (ii) in the case of an election to convert to or continue as an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed conversion or continuation. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Agent and signed by the Borrower.
(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);
(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;
(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a LIBO Rate Borrowing; and
(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a LIBO Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
If any such Interest Election Request requests a LIBO Rate Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.
(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.
(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a LIBO Rate Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default of the type set forth in clauses (a) or (b) of Article VII (without giving effect to any grace period set forth therein) has occurred and is continuing and the Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing,
64
(i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a LIBO Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the then current Interest Period applicable thereto.
SECTION 2.06. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) The Term Loan Commitments shall automatically terminate upon the making of the Term Loans on the Restatement Date. The Revolving A Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date and the Revolving B Credit Commitments and the Swingline Commitment shall automatically terminate on the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date. The L/C Commitment shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date that is 30 days prior to the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date.
(b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure at the time, and (iii) the Borrower may condition a notice of termination of all of the Commitments upon the effectiveness of a replacement financing.
(c) Each reduction in the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments; provided that until the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, any such reduction of any Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder shall be allocated first, ratably to the Revolving A Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving A Pro Rata Percentages. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of termination of the Commitments of any Class, all accrued and unpaid Commitment Fees relating to such Class to but excluding the date of such termination.
SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to each Lender, through the Agent, (i) the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.08, (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving A Loan of such Lender on the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date and (iii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving B Loan of such Lender on the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date. The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan on the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date, provided that on each date that a Revolving Credit Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.
(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
65
resulting from each Loan 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.
(c) The Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period (if any) applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.
(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in substantially the form of Exhibit F hereto. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein and its registered assigns.
SECTION 2.08. Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) (i) The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the account of the Tranche B Term Lenders, on the dates set forth below, or if any such date is not a Business Day, on the next preceding Business Day, a principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.08(c), 2.09(c), 2.10(h) and 2.24(d)) equal to the percentage set forth below for such date of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loans outstanding on the Restatement Date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment:

(d) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.08 shall be subject to Section 2.15, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.
SECTION 2.09. Optional Prepayment of Loans. (a) Upon prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section, the Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing of any Class in whole or in part without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.15 and Section 2.09(d)); provided that each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $500,000.
(b) The Borrower shall notify the Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a LIBO Rate Borrowing, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment or (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing,
68
not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable (except that any such notice may be conditioned upon the effectiveness of a new financing) and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and the Class(es) and Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest as required by Section 2.12; provided, however, that in the case of a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Loan that is not made in connection with a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount prepaid shall be payable on the next scheduled Interest Payment Date with respect to such ABR Revolving Loan or Swingline Loan.
(c) Optional prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.09(a) shall be applied against the remaining installments of principal in respect of the Class of Term Loans scheduled to be paid as directed by the Borrower.
(d) If, prior to the first anniversary of the Restatement Date, (i) all or any portion of the Term Loans is prepaid substantially concurrently with the proceeds of, or the Term Loans are converted into, any new or replacement tranche of term loan Indebtedness (including any Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to Section 2.22) that has an effective interest rate or weighted average yield (to be determined in the reasonable discretion of the Agent consistent with generally accepted financial practices, after giving effect to margins, “LIBOR floors”, upfront or similar fees or original issue discount shared with all lenders or holders thereof, but excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders or holders thereof) less than the effective interest rate or weighted average yield (to be determined in the reasonable discretion of the Agent consistent with generally accepted financial practices, on the same basis as above) of the Term Loans being prepaid or converted, or (ii) a Non-Consenting Lender must assign its Term Loans pursuant to Section 9.02(e) or otherwise as a result of its failure to consent to an amendment that is passed and reduces the effective interest rate or weighted average yield (taking into account any “LIBOR floor”) then in effect with respect to the Term Loans, then in each case the aggregate principal amount so prepaid, converted, assigned or repaid will be subject to a fee payable by the Borrower equal to 1% of the principal amount thereof.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.09, so long as no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, the Borrower may repurchase outstanding Term Loans on the following basis:
(i) the Borrower may make one or more offers (each, an “Offer”) to repurchase all or any portion of the Term Loans (the “Offer Loans”); provided that (A) the Borrower delivers to the Agent (for distribution to such Lenders) a
69
notice of the aggregate principal amount of the Offer Loans that will be subject to such Offer no later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Agent) in advance of the proposed consummation date of such Offer indicating (1) the last date on which such Offer may be accepted, (2) the maximum principal amount of the Offer Loans the Borrower is willing to repurchase in the Offer, (3) the Class of such Offer Loans, (4) the range of discounts to par at which the Borrower is willing to repurchase the Offer Loans and (5) the instructions, consistent with this Section 2.09(e) with respect to the Offer, that a Term Lender must follow in order to have its Offer Loans repurchased; (B) the maximum dollar amount of each Offer shall be no less than $10,000,000 or whole multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof; (C) the Borrower shall hold such Offer open for a minimum period of three Business Days; (D) a Term Lender who elects to participate in the Offer may choose to tender all or part of such Term Lender’s Offer Loans; (E) the proceeds of Revolving Loans may not be used to fund any repurchase under this Section 2.09(e); (F) the Offer shall be made to the Term Lenders holding the Offer Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with the respective principal amount of the Offer Loans then due and owing to the applicable Term Lenders; and (G) the Offer shall be conducted pursuant to such procedures as the Agent may reasonably establish; and
(ii) following a repurchase pursuant to this Section 2.09(e) by the Borrower, (A) the Offer Loans so repurchased shall, without further action by any Person, be deemed cancelled for all purposes and no longer outstanding for all purposes of this Agreement and all the other Loan Documents and (B) the Borrower will promptly advise the Agent of the total amount of Offer Loans that were repurchased from each Lender who elected to participate in the Offer.
SECTION 2.10. Mandatory Prepayment of Loans. (a) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all its outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and all outstanding Swingline Loans and replace all (or make other arrangements, including providing cash collateral or a supporting letter of credit, acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, with respect thereto) outstanding Letters of Credit. If as a result of any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect thereto, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings or Swingline Loans (or a combination thereof) and/or replace outstanding (or make such other arrangement with respect to) Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.
(b) Upon the consummation of an Asset Sale, the Borrower shall apply 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds relating to such Asset Sale within 545 days (or such lesser number of days that may be applicable to the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale under any agreement governing Specified Secured Indebtedness) of receipt thereof either (i) to prepay Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(g) (provided that, if at the time of such prepayment, any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds is also required to be used to
70
prepay, or to make an offer to prepay, any Specified Secured Indebtedness, then the Borrower shall only be required to prepay the Term Loans under this Section 2.10(b) with such Net Cash Proceeds equally and ratably with such Specified Secured Indebtedness); or (ii) to reinvest in Productive Assets (provided that this requirement shall be deemed satisfied if the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary by the end of such 545-day period has entered into a binding agreement under which it is contractually committed to reinvest in Productive Assets and such investment is consummated within 120 days from the date on which such binding agreement is entered into), or (iii) a combination of prepayment and investment permitted by the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii).
(c) [Intentionally Omitted.]
(d) No later than the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days after the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending on September 30, 2014, and (ii) the date on which the financial statements with respect to such period are delivered pursuant to Section 5.01(a), the Borrower shall prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(g) in an aggregate principal amount equal to 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended, minus Voluntary Prepayments made during such fiscal year; provided (x) that the amount of such prepayment shall be reduced to 25% of such Excess Cash Flow if the Consolidated Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year shall be equal to or less than 5.00 to 1.00, but greater than 4.50 to 1.00, and (y) such prepayment shall not be required if the Consolidated Leverage Ratio at the end of such fiscal year shall be equal to or less than 4.50 to 1.00.
(e) In the event that any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness for money borrowed of any Loan Party or any subsidiary of a Loan Party (other than Permitted Indebtedness), the Borrower shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the third Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.10(g).
(f) With respect to mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Agreement made pursuant to this Section 2.10, each Term Lender may elect, by written notice to the Agent at the time and in the manner specified by the Agent, to decline all (but not less than all) of its pro rata share of such Term Loan prepayment, in which case the amounts so rejected may be retained by the Borrower.
(g) The Borrower shall deliver to the Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.10, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) to the extent practicable, at least three (3) days’ prior written notice of such prepayment. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the
71
Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest as required by Section 2.12. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.10 shall be subject to Section 2.15, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.
(h) Mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Agreement shall be allocated ratably among the Tranche B Term Loans, the Tranche C Term Loans and the Other Term Loans, if any, and shall be applied pro rata against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Tranche B Term Loans, Tranche C Term Loans and the Other Term Loans; provided that, if at the time of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.10 there shall be Term Borrowings of different Types or Eurodollar Term Borrowings with different Interest Periods, and if some but not all Term Lenders shall have accepted such mandatory prepayment, then the aggregate amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be allocated ratably to each outstanding Term Borrowing of the accepting Term Lenders. If no Term Lenders exercise the right to waive a given mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(f), then, with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that are Eurodollar Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15.
SECTION 2.11. Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to each Lender, through the Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on each date on which any Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein, a commitment fee (a “Commitment Fee”) equal to the Applicable Rate per annum in effect from time to time on the daily unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender (other than the Swingline Commitment) during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated, as applicable). All Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. The Commitment Fee due to each Lender shall commence to accrue on the Closing Date and shall cease to accrue on the date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall expire or be terminated as provided herein. For purposes of calculating Commitment Fees only, no portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed utilized as a result of outstanding Swingline Loans.
(b) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for its own account, the agency fees set forth in the Engagement Letter, as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, or such agency fees as may otherwise be separately agreed upon by the Borrower and the Agent payable in the amounts and at the times specified therein or as so otherwise agreed upon (the “Agent Fees”).
(c) The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to each Revolving Credit Lender through the Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender
72
shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (an “L/C Participation Fee”) calculated on such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the Closing Date or ending with the applicable Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings of the applicable Class comprised of LIBO Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.12, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank, with respect to each Letter of Credit, a fronting fee at a rate to be agreed upon by the Borrower and the Issuing Bank (which shall equal 0.25% per annum when the Issuing Bank is Credit Suisse AG) on the aggregate outstanding face amount of such Letter of Credit, and the standard issuance and drawing fees specified from time to time by the Issuing Bank (the “Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days. For the avoidance of doubt, the L/C Participation Fees payable to the Revolving A Credit Lenders shall be based on the Applicable Percentage for LIBO Rate Revolving A Loans, and the L/C Participation Fees payable to the Revolving B Credit Lenders shall be based on the Applicable Percentage for LIBO Rate Revolving B Loans.
(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances absent manifest error in the calculation of such fees.
SECTION 2.12. Interest. (a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing, including each Swingline Loan, shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.
(b) The Loans comprising each LIBO Rate Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default referred to in paragraphs (a), (b), (f) and (g) of Article VII, at the written request of the Required Lenders, any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder shall bear interest, payable on demand, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section. Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.12(c) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Agent or any Lender.
73
(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable to the applicable Lenders, through the Agent, in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment (except in the case of a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or a Swingline Loan that is not made in connection with a termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments) and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
(e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
SECTION 2.13. Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Borrowing:
(a) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that dollar deposits in the principal amount of the Loans comprising such Borrowing are not generally available in the London interbank market;
(b) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; or
(c) the Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;
then the Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a LIBO Rate Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.03 or 2.05 shall be deemed to be a request for an ABR Borrowing.
SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or the Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate);
74
(ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Bank or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or LIBO Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or
(iii) subject any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes, Other Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent of making or maintaining any LIBO Rate Loan or increase the cost to any Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Agent for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
(b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or Issuing Bank or any lending office of such Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law other than due to Taxes, which shall be dealt with exclusively pursuant to Section 2.16 (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time following delivery of the certificate contemplated by paragraph (c) of this Section the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
(c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
75
(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
(e) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.14 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy issued in connection with the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Regulations and Supervisory Practices (or any successor or similar authority) of the United States financial regulatory authorities, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented.
SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any LIBO Rate Loan or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBO Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (d) the assignment of any LIBO Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. In the case of a LIBO Rate Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall not include loss of profit or margin and shall be deemed to be the amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section and the basis therefor and setting forth in reasonable detail the manner in which such amount or amounts was determined shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
76
SECTION 2.16. Taxes. (a) 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 deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes except as required by applicable law; provided that if a Loan Party shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all such required deductions (including such deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section), the Agent, Lender or the Issuing Bank (as applicable) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) such Loan Party shall make such deductions and (iii) such Loan Party shall timely pay the full amount so deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If at any time a Loan Party is required by applicable law to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable hereunder, such Loan Party shall promptly notify the relevant Lender, Agent or the Issuing Bank upon becoming aware of the same. In addition, each Lender, Agent or the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify a Loan Party upon becoming aware of any circumstances as a result of which a Loan Party is or would be required to make any deduction or withholding from any sum payable hereunder.
(b) In addition, the Loan Parties shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for, any Other Taxes.
(c) Each Loan Party shall indemnify the Agent and each Lender or the Issuing Bank, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses (other than those incurred as a result of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Agent, Lender or Issuing Bank) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, 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 Issuing Bank, or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within ten (10) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of (i) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, (ii) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), and (iii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Loan Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto,
77
whether or not such Excluded 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 a Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Loan Party shall deliver to the 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 Agent.
(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Lender shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent, on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party hereto, two duly signed, properly completed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:
(A) in the case of a Lender that is not a Foreign Lender, IRS Form W-9;
(B) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN establishing an exemption from U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender for whom payments under any Loan Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such Lender’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;
(D) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN and (2) a certificate (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of
78
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 and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;
(E) in the case of a Foreign Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Loan Document (including a partnership or a Participant) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D), (F) and (G) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners;
(F) if a payment made to a Foreign Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to any withholding Taxes as a result of such Foreign Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code), at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Foreign Lender has or has not complied with such Foreign Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment; or
(G) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.
(iii) Thereafter and from time to time, each Foreign Lender shall (A) promptly submit to the Borrower and the Agent such additional duly completed and signed copies of one or more of forms or certificates described in Section 2.16(f)(ii)(A), (B), (C), (D), (E), (F) or (G) above (or such successor forms or certificates as shall be adopted from time to time by the relevant United States taxing authorities) as may then be available under then current United States Laws and regulations to avoid, or such evidence as is reasonably
79
satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent of any available exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding Taxes in respect of all payments to be made to such Foreign Lender by the Borrower or other Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, in each case, (1) on or before the date that any such form, certificate or other evidence expires or becomes obsolete, (2) after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form, certificate or evidence previously delivered by it to the Borrower and (3) from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, and (B) promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent of any change in circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or reduction.
(g) If the Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Bank determines, in good faith in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which such Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) as is determined by the Agent, such Lender, or the Issuing Bank in good faith in its sole discretion, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank, agrees to repay as soon as reasonably practicable the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank in the event the Agent, such Lender or the Issuing Bank is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to such Loan Party or any other Person.
(h) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes for which additional amounts have been paid under this Section 2.16, the relevant Lender, the Agent or the Issuing Bank shall reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in challenging such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, at the Borrower’s expense, if reasonably requested by the Borrower in writing.
SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Unless otherwise specified, the Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder and under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments (other than (i) Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the Issuing
80
Bank, and (ii) principal of and interest on Swingline Loans, which shall be paid directly to the Swingline Lender except as otherwise provided in Section 2.22(f)) shall be made to the Agent to the applicable account designated to the Borrower by the Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it, except as otherwise provided, for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars. Any payment required to be made by the Agent hereunder shall be deemed to have been made by the time required if the Agent shall, at or before such time, have taken the necessary steps to make such payment in accordance with the regulations or operating procedures of the clearing or settlement system used by the Agent to make such payment.
(b) [Intentionally Omitted.]
(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or any of its L/C Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and accrued interest thereon and L/C Disbursements than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and L/C Disbursements of other Lenders at such time outstanding to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such 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 L/C Disbursements; 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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or L/C Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to Holdings, the Borrower or any subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply, except as otherwise contemplated by Section 2.09(e)). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
(d) Unless the Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Agent for the account of the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon
81
such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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 Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(a), 2.17(c) or 9.03(c), then the Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.
(f) Except as otherwise provided herein, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the Commitment Fees or the L/C Participation Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements, as applicable). Each Lender agrees that in computing such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole dollar amount
SECTION 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans or issuing Letters of Credit hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as applicable, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender or the Issuing Bank to any material unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the Issuing Bank in any material respect. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Bank in connection with any such designation or assignment.
(b) In the event (i) any Lender or the Issuing Bank requests compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or the Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.16 or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to
82
such Lender or the Issuing Bank and the Agent, replace such Lender or the Issuing Bank by requiring such Lender or the Issuing Bank to assign and delegate (and such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall be obligated to assign and delegate), without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender or the Issuing Bank shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or the Issuing Bank or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.
SECTION 2.19. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted after the Closing Date that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make or maintain any LIBO Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligations of such Lender to make or continue LIBO Rate Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to LIBO Rate Borrowings shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), either convert all LIBO Rate Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBO Rate Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted. Each Lender agrees to designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the determination of such Lender, otherwise be disadvantageous to it.
SECTION 2.20. [Intentionally Omitted.]
SECTION 2.21. [Intentionally Omitted.]
SECTION 2.22. Swingline Loans. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, the Swingline Lender agrees to make loans to the Borrower at any time and from time to time on and after the Closing Date and until the earlier of the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans exceeding $25,000,000 in the aggregate or (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, after giving effect to any
83
Swingline Loan, exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. Each Swingline Loan shall be in a principal amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $100,000. The Swingline Commitment may be terminated or reduced from time to time as provided herein. Within the foregoing limits, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans hereunder, subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein.
(b) The Borrower shall notify the Swingline Lender by fax, or by telephone (confirmed by fax), not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Such notice shall be delivered on a Business Day, shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of such Swingline Loan and the wire transfer instructions for the account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of such Swingline Loan should be transferred. The Swingline Lender shall promptly make each Swingline Loan by wire transfer to the account specified by the Borrower in such request.
(c) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Swingline Lender and to the Agent before 12:00 (noon), New York City time, on the date of prepayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified in its Administrative Questionnaire.
(d) Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(c), shall bear interest at the rate provided for the ABR Revolving Loans as provided in Section 2.12(a).
(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments made pursuant to Section 2.06 which reduces the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment to an amount less than the then current amount of the Swingline Commitment shall result in an automatic corresponding reduction of the Swingline Commitment such that the amount thereof equals the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment, as so reduced, without any further action on the part of the Borrower, the Agent or the Swingline Lender.
(f) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Credit Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding; provided that any such participations shall be allocated ratably to each Revolving Credit Lender according to the Total Pro Rata Percentages of each Revolving Credit Lender. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which the Revolving Credit Lenders will participate. The Agent will, promptly upon receipt of such notice, give notice to each Revolving Credit Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Credit Lender
84
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04(a) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.04(a) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders) and the Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Agent; any such amounts received by the Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower (or other party liable for obligations of the Borrower) of any default in the payment thereof.
(g) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Revolving Credit Lender, designate one or more additional Revolving Credit Lenders to act as the swingline lender under the terms of this Agreement. Any Revolving Credit Lender designated as the swingline lender pursuant to this paragraph (g) shall be deemed to be the “Swingline Lender” (in addition to being a Revolving Credit Lender) in respect of Swingline Loans made or to be made by such Revolving Credit Lender.
SECTION 2.23. Letters of Credit. (a) The Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit for its own account or for the account of any Subsidiary, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Agent and the Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the L/C Commitments remain in effect as set forth in Section 2.06(a). This Section shall not be construed to impose an obligation upon (i) the Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement or (ii) Credit Suisse AG or any of its Affiliates to issue documentary or “trade” Letters of Credit (as opposed to “standby” Letters of Credit). Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, (x) on the Restatement Date, all Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to be Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement as of the Restatement Date and (y) from and after June 1, 2013, neither Credit Suisse AG nor any of its Affiliates shall be obligated to issue, extend or renew any Letters of Credit under this Agreement.
(b) In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the Issuing Bank and the Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance,
85
amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly (i) notify the Agent in writing of the amount and expiry date of each Letter of Credit issued by it and (ii) provide a copy of each such Letter of Credit (and any amendments, renewals or extensions thereof) to the Agent. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $125,000,000 and (ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment. The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify each relevant Revolving Credit Lender of the issuance, amendment, renewal, expiration or termination of any Letter of Credit hereunder and, upon request by any Revolving Credit Lender, furnish to such Lender details of such Letter of Credit and the amount of such Lender’s participation therein.
(c) Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or such later date as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion) and the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date) unless the Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.
(d) By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of the Existing Letters of Credit, effective upon the Restatement Date). In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(e). The participations provided for in this Section 2.23(d) and the reimbursements provided for in Section 2.23(e) shall be allocated ratably to each Revolving Credit Lender according to the Total Revolving Pro Rata Percentages of each such Revolving Credit Lender. On the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, unless the Revolving Credit Commitments shall have been terminated, the participations of the Revolving A Credit Lenders provided for in this
86
paragraph shall be reallocated to the Revolving B Credit Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving B Pro Rata Percentage. Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.
(e) If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent (or directly to the Issuing Bank, with concurrent notice to the Agent) an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than two hours after the Borrower shall have received notice from the Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made, or, if the Borrower shall have received such notice later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day.
(f) The Borrower’s obligations to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;
(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;
(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, the Agent or any Lender or any other person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;
(iv) any draft or other document presented under a 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;
(v) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and
(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder.
87
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrower hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of the Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or wilful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof; it is understood that the Issuing Bank 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 (i) the 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 (ii) 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 wilful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuing Bank.
(g) The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax, to the Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement. The Agent shall promptly give each Revolving Credit Lender notice thereof.
(h) If the Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of the Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by the Borrower and the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(e), at the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were an ABR Revolving Loan.
(i) The Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice to the Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, and may be removed at any time by the Borrower by notice to the Issuing Bank, the Agent and the Lenders. Subject to the next succeeding paragraph, upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as successor Issuing Bank, such
88
successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank and the retiring Issuing Bank shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.11(c)(ii). The acceptance of any appointment as the Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of the Issuing Bank hereunder, the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(j) If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Borrower shall, on the Business Day it receives notice from the Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date; provided, however, that the obligation to deposit such cash shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clause (f) or (g) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Collateral Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations. The Collateral Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Collateral Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.
89
(k) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.
(l) The Borrower, the Issuing Banks and the Agent may agree to such additional provisions with respect to Letters of Credit and such provisions shall be deemed to be incorporated into this Section 2.23 so long as such additional provisions are not adverse to any Revolving Credit Lender.
SECTION 2.24. Increase in Commitments. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent from time to time, request Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments in amounts not to exceed the Incremental Term Loan Amount or the Incremental Revolving Credit Amount, as applicable, from one or more Incremental Term Lenders or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, which may include any existing Lender (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion); provided that each Incremental Term Lender and Incremental Revolving Credit Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld). Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or equal to the remaining Incremental Term Loan Amount or Incremental Revolving Credit Amount, as applicable), (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Agent) and (iii) (x) whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are to be Commitments to make Term Loans or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Term Loans (“Other Term Loans”) and (y) whether such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are to be Commitments to make Revolving B Loans or commitments to make revolving loans with terms different from the Revolving B Loans (“Other Revolving Loans”).
(b) The Borrower may seek Incremental Term Loan Commitments and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, in connection therewith. The Borrower and each Incremental Term Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of such Incremental Term Lender. The Borrower and each
90
Incremental Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Credit Lender. Each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable, to be made thereunder; provided that, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the final maturity date of any Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Tranche C Maturity Date and the final maturity date of any Other Revolving Loans shall be no earlier than the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date and (ii) the average life to maturity of any Other Term Loans shall be no shorter than the average life to maturity of the Tranche C Term Loans; and provided further that, if the initial yield on such Other Term Loans (as determined by the Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the margin above the Adjusted LIBO Rate on such Other Term Loans (which shall be increased by the amount that any “LIBOR floor” applicable to such Other Term Loans on the date such Other Term Loans are made would exceed the Adjusted LIBO Rate (without giving effect to clause (a) in the definition thereof) that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) and (y) if such Other Term Loans are initially made at a discount or the Lenders making the same receive an upfront fee (other than a customary arrangement or underwriting fee) directly or indirectly from Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary (the amount of such discount or upfront fee, expressed as a percentage of the Other Term Loans, being referred to herein as “OID”), the amount of such OID divided by the lesser of (x) the average life to maturity of such Other Term Loans and (y) four) exceeds by more than 50 basis points the sum of (A) the margin then in effect for LIBO Rate Term Loans of any Class (other than the Tranche B Term Loans) (which, with respect to the Term Loans of any such Class, shall be the sum of the Applicable Rate then in effect for such LIBO Rate Term Loans of such Class increased by the amount that any “LIBOR floor” applicable to such LIBO Rate Term Loans of such Class on the date such Other Term Loans are made would exceed the Adjusted LIBO Rate (without giving effect to clause (a) in the definition thereof) that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) plus (B) one-quarter of the amount of OID initially paid in respect of the Term Loans of such Class (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Rate then in effect for each such affected Class of Term Loans shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential, effective upon the making of the Other Term Loans and (b) the Applicable Rate with respect to any Other Revolving Loans shall be equal to the Applicable Rate for the Revolving B Loans; provided that the Applicable Rate of the Revolving B Loans may be increased to equal the Applicable Rate for such Other Revolving Loans to satisfy the requirements of this clause (b). If the Applicable Rate for the Tranche C Term Loans is increased pursuant to the preceding sentence as a result of the incurrence of Other Term Loans, then the Applicable Rate for the Tranche B Term Loans shall be increased at the same time and by the same number of basis points as applicable to the increase in the Applicable Rate for the Tranche C Term Loans. The other terms of the Incremental Term Loans or the Incremental Revolving Loans, as applicable, and the Incremental Loan Assumption Agreement or the Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, as applicable, to
91
the extent not consistent with the terms applicable to the Term Loans and Revolving Loans hereunder, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and, to the extent that such Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, as applicable, contains any covenants, events of default, representations or warranties or other rights or provisions that place greater restrictions on Holdings, the Borrower or the Restricted Subsidiaries or are more favorable to the Lenders making such Other Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans, as applicable, the existing Lenders shall be entitled to the benefit of such rights and provisions so long as such Other Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans, as applicable, remain outstanding and such additional rights and provisions shall be deemed automatically incorporated by reference into this Agreement, mutatis mutandis, as if fully set forth herein, without any further action required on the part of any Person effective as of the date of such Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, as applicable. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment, as applicable, evidenced thereby as provided for in Section 9.02. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Agent with the Borrower’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.24 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (ii) the Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation consistent with those delivered on the Restatement Date, (iii) the Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 6.00 to 1.00 and (iv) the Consolidated Secured Debt Ratio would be no greater than 4.00 to 1.00, in the case of each of clauses (iii) and (iv), after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Term Loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom as if made and applied on such date.
(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Agent may take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Tranche B Term Loans on a pro rata basis, and the Borrower agrees that Section 2.15 shall apply to any conversion of LIBO Rate Term Loans to ABR Term Loans reasonably required by the Agent to effect the foregoing. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are not Other Term Loans, the scheduled amortization percentages under Section 2.08(a) shall be deemed to apply to the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans on the date such Loans are made.
92
SECTION 2.25. Loan Modification Offers. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes of Loans and/or Commitments (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 30 Business Days after the date of such notice, unless otherwise agreed to by the Agent). Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and/or Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Lender’s Loans and/or Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.
(b) The Borrower and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent a Loan Modification Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class (including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective under this Section 2.25 unless the Agent shall have received customary legal opinions, board resolutions and customary officers’ certificates reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.
(c) “Permitted Amendments” shall be (i) an extension of the final maturity date and/or a reduction or elimination of the scheduled amortization applicable to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders, (ii) (A) an increase in the Applicable Rate and/or Commitment Fee with respect to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders and/or (B) the payment of additional fees or other compensation to the Accepting Lenders, (iii) such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as shall be appropriate, in the reasonable judgment of the Agent, to provide the rights and benefits of this Agreement and other Loan Documents to each new “Class” of loans and/or commitments resulting therefrom and (iv) additional amendments to the terms of this Agreement applicable to the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders that are less favorable to such Accepting Lenders than the terms of this Agreement prior to giving effect to such Permitted Amendments and that are reasonably acceptable to the Agent; provided that if any such Permitted Amendment shall create a new Class of Revolving Credit Commitments, (A) the allocation of the participation exposure with respect to any then
93
existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the Commitments of the then existing Revolving Credit Lenders shall be made on a ratable basis as between the commitments of such new “Class” and the Commitments of the then existing Revolving Credit Lenders and (B) the L/C Commitment and Swingline Commitment may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable.
SECTION 2.26. Refinancing Facilities. (a) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Agent from time to time, request the establishment hereunder of (i) a new Class of revolving commitments (the “Refinancing Revolving Commitments”) pursuant to which each Person providing such a commitment (a “Refinancing Revolving Lender”), which may include any existing Lender (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion), will make revolving loans to the Borrower (“Refinancing Revolving Loans”) and acquire participations in the Letters of Credit and the Swingline Loans and (ii) one or more additional Classes of term loan commitments (the “Refinancing Term Loan Commitments”), pursuant to which each Person providing such a commitment (a “Refinancing Term Lender”) will make term loans to the Borrower (the “Refinancing Term Loans”); provided that (A) each Refinancing Revolving Lender and each Refinancing Term Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and shall be subject to the approval of the Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) and (B) each Refinancing Revolving Lender shall be subject to the approval of each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), in each case, to the extent such consent, if any, would be required under the definition of “Eligible Assignee” for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Refinancing Revolving Lender and such Refinancing Term Lender, as applicable.
(b) The Borrower and each Refinancing Lender shall execute and deliver to the Agent a Refinancing Facility Agreement and such other documentation as the Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Refinancing Commitments of each Refinancing Lender. Such Refinancing Financing Facility Agreement shall set forth, with respect to the Refinancing Commitments established thereby and the Refinancing Loans and other extensions of credit to be made thereunder, to the extent applicable: (i) the designation of such Refinancing Commitments and Refinancing Loans as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder, (ii) the stated termination and maturity dates applicable to the Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class; provided that such stated termination and maturity dates shall not be earlier than the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date (in the case of Refinancing Revolving Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans) or the Tranche C Maturity Date (in the case of Refinancing Term Loan Commitments and Refinancing Term Loans), (iii) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, any amortization applicable thereto and the effect thereon of any prepayment of such Refinancing Term Loans, (iv) the interest rate or rates applicable to the Refinancing Loans of such Class, (v) the fees applicable to the Refinancing Commitment or Refinancing Loans of such Class, (vi) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, any original issue discount applicable thereto, (vii) the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods applicable to Refinancing Loans of such Class and (viii) any voluntary or mandatory commitment reduction or prepayment requirements
94
applicable to Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class (which prepayment requirements, in the case of any Refinancing Term Loans, may provide that such Refinancing Term Loans may participate in any mandatory prepayment on a pro rata basis with the Term Loans, but may not provide for prepayment requirements that are more favorable to the Lenders holding such Refinancing Term Loans than to the Lenders holding Term Loans) and any restrictions on the voluntary or mandatory reductions or prepayments of Refinancing Commitments or Refinancing Loans of such Class. Except as contemplated by the preceding sentence, the terms of the Refinancing Revolving Commitments and Refinancing Revolving Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder shall be substantially the same as the Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Loans and other extensions of credit thereunder, and the terms of the Refinancing Term Loan Commitments and Refinancing Term Loans shall be substantially the same as the terms of the Tranche C Term Loan Commitments and the Tranche C Term Loans. The Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Facility Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Facility Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Facility Agreement (including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder).
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Refinancing Commitments shall become effective under this Section 2.26 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the Borrower, (ii) the Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other customary closing certificates consistent with those delivered on the Restatement Date, (iii) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Commitments, substantially concurrently with the effectiveness thereof, all the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Class then in effect shall be terminated, and all the Revolving Loans then outstanding thereunder, together with all interest thereon, and all other amounts accrued for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders of such Class, shall be repaid or paid (it being understood, however, that, with the written consent of the applicable Issuing Bank, any Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank may continue to be outstanding hereunder), and the aggregate amount of such Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments does not exceeded the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments so terminated and (iv) in the case of any Refinancing Term Loan Commitments, substantially concurrently with the effectiveness thereof, the Borrower shall obtain Refinancing Term Loans thereunder and shall repay or prepay then outstanding Term Borrowings of any Class in an aggregate principal amount equal to the aggregate amount of such Refinancing Term Loan Commitments (less the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such outstanding Term Borrowings and any reasonable fees, premium and expenses relating to such refinancing) (and any such prepayment of Term Borrowings of any Class shall be applied to reduce the subsequent scheduled repayments of Term Borrowings of such Class to be made pursuant to Section 2.08 on a pro rata basis).
95
SECTION 2.27. Permitted Conversions. (a) At any time prior to the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, upon three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Borrower and the Agent, any Revolving A Credit Lender (a “Converting Lender”) may convert all (but not less than all) of its Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (if any) into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure, respectively (a “Permitted Conversion”), pursuant to procedures among the applicable Lenders reasonably specified by the Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Such notice shall set forth the date on which such Permitted Conversion is requested to become effective. On the effective date of such Permitted Conversion, the Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (including any outstanding Revolving A Loans) of the Converting Lender shall, without the need for any further action, be converted into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure, and shall, from and after such date, be entitled to Commitment Fees, interest and L/C Participation Fees calculated at the Applicable Percentages for Revolving B Credit Commitments and shall mature on the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date.
(b) At any time prior to the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed by written notice) to the Agent, the Borrower may at any time increase the Revolving B Credit Commitment of one or more Revolving B Credit Lenders (each, a “Revolving B Credit Commitment Increase”), with the consent of such Revolving B Credit Lender (which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion), pursuant to procedures among the applicable Lenders reasonably specified by the Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower; provided that (i) each Revolving B Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in a minimum amount of $1,000,000, (ii) at the time of such Revolving B Credit Commitment Increase, the Revolving A Credit Commitments shall be reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate Revolving B Credit Commitment Increase (such reduction to be allocated ratably among the Revolving A Credit Lenders in accordance with their Revolving A Pro Rata Percentage pursuant to Section 2.06(c) and the notice required by this Section 2.27(b) being deemed to satisfy the notice requirement of Section 2.06(b) for purposes of such reduction); provided that the Revolving A Credit Commitments shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Revolving A Credit Exposure at such time and (iii) the Borrower shall have paid to the Agent for the account of the applicable Revolving A Credit Lenders, all accrued and unpaid Commitment Fees relating to such Class to but excluding the date of such reduction.
(c) At any time prior to the Revolving A Credit Maturity Date, the Borrower may request that any Revolving A Credit Lender convert all (but not less than all) of its Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (if any) into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure, respectively, and if such Revolving A Credit Lender shall fail to execute such documents necessary to convert its Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (if any) into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure within five Business Days of such request (such Revolving
96
A Credit Lender, a “Non-Consenting Converting Lender”), then the Borrower may require such Non-Consenting Converting Lender to assign and delegate all its interests, rights and obligations with respect to such Non-Consenting Converting Lender’s Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure at par to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such interests, rights and obligations; provided that such Eligible Assignee shall consent at the time of such assignment to convert such Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (if any) into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure, pursuant to procedures among the applicable Lenders reasonably specified by the Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. On the effective date of such assignment by the applicable Non-Consenting Converting Lender to an Eligible Assignee, the Revolving A Credit Commitments and outstanding Revolving A Credit Exposure (including any outstanding Revolving A Loans) of such Eligible Assignee shall, without the need for any further action, be converted into Revolving B Credit Commitments and Revolving B Credit Exposure, and shall, from and after such date, be entitled to Commitment Fees, interest and L/C Participation Fees calculated at the Applicable Percentages for Revolving B Credit Commitments and shall mature on the Revolving B Credit Maturity Date.
SECTION 2.28. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a) the Commitment Fee shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(a);
(b) the Revolving Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender or each Lender affected thereby if such amendment, waiver or modification would adversely affect such Defaulting Lender compared to other similarly affected Lenders; provided further that no amendment, waiver or modification that would require the consent of a Defaulting Lender under clause (A), (B) or (C) of the second proviso of Section 9.02(b) may be made without the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(c) if any Swingline Exposure or L/C Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages but only to the extent (A) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposure plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure does not exceed the
97
total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and (B) the Revolving Credit Exposure of each non-Defaulting Lender after giving effect to such reallocation does not exceed the Revolving Credit Commitment of such non-Defaulting Lender;
(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of each applicable Issuing Bank only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;
(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.11(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized except to the extent of such fees that became due and payable by the Borrower prior to the date such Lender became a Defaulting Lender (it being understood that any cash collateral provided pursuant to this Section 2.28(c) shall be released promptly following the termination of the Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender);
(iv) if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.11(a) and Section Section 2.11(c) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Percentages; and
(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all fees payable under Section 2.11(c) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to each applicable Issuing Bank until and to the extent that such L/C Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is reasonably satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding L/C Exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Credit Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.28(c), and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.28(c) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).
98
In the event that the Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and L/C Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans), if any, as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Percentage, and such Lender shall then cease to be a Defaulting Lender with respect to subsequent periods unless such Lender shall thereafter become a Defaulting Lender.
ARTICLE III

(b) No event, change or condition has occurred that has had, or would reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect since September 30, 2012.
SECTION 3.05. Properties.

All such properties and assets are free and clear of Liens, other than Liens (i) permitted by Section 6.06 or (ii) arising by operation of law (which Liens, in the case of this clause (ii) would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect).
(c) Each of the Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries has complied with all obligations under all leases to which it is a party, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and all such leases are in full force and effect, except leases in respect of which the failure to be in full force and effect would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Borrower and each of the Subsidiaries enjoys peaceful and undisturbed possession under all such leases, other than leases in respect of which the failure to enjoy peaceful and undisturbed possession would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.
(d) As of the Restatement Date, none of Holdings, the Borrower or any Subsidiary has received any notice of, nor has any knowledge of, any pending or
100
contemplated condemnation proceeding affecting any material portion of the Mortgaged Properties or any sale or disposition thereof in lieu of condemnation.

The proceeds of the Loans will be used only for the purposes specified in the introductory statement to this Agreement or, in the case of Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans, in the applicable Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement.

SECTION 5.11. Additional Collateral; Further Assurances. (a) Subject to applicable law, Holdings, the Borrower and each Subsidiary that is a Loan Party shall cause (i) each of its Domestic Subsidiaries (other than any Immaterial Subsidiary (except as otherwise provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 5.11), Unrestricted Subsidiary or Securitization Entities) formed or acquired after the Restatement Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement that is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.09 and (ii) any such Domestic Subsidiary that was an Immaterial Subsidiary but, as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower has ceased to qualify as an Immaterial Subsidiary, to become a Loan Party within 20 Business Days by executing a Joinder Agreement in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit D hereto (the “Joinder Agreement”). Upon execution and delivery thereof, each such Person (i) shall automatically become a Loan Party hereunder and thereupon shall have all of the rights, benefits, duties, and obligations in such capacity under the Loan Documents and (ii) will simultaneously therewith or as soon as practicable thereafter grant Liens to the Agent, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders and each other Secured Party at such time party to or benefiting from the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to the extent required by the terms thereof, in any property (subject to the limitations with respect to Equity Interests set forth in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.11 and any other limitations set forth in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) of such Loan Party which constitutes
114
Collateral, on such terms as may be required pursuant to the terms of the Collateral Documents.

Reg. Section 1.956-2(c)(2)) and 100% of the issued and outstanding Equity Interests not entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treas. Reg.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party will, and will cause each Subsidiary that is a Loan Party to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to the Agent such documents, agreements and instruments, and will take or cause to be taken such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents and such other actions or deliveries of the type required by Section 4.02, as applicable (including legal opinions, Title Insurance Policies, certificates and corporate and organizational documents)), which may be required by law or which the Agent may, from time to time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.
(d) Subject to the limitations set forth or referred to in this Section 5.11, if any material assets (including any owned real property or improvements thereto but excluding leasehold interests) (but only those having a fair market value of at least $5,000,000) are acquired by the Borrower or any Subsidiary that is a Loan Party after the Restatement Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement that become subject to the Lien in favor of the Agent upon acquisition thereof), the Borrower will notify the Agent and the Lenders thereof, and, if requested by the Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and will take, and cause the Loan Parties
115
that are Subsidiaries to take, such actions as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (c) of this Section, all at the expense of the Loan Parties.
(e) If, at any time and from time to time after the Restatement Date, Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Loan Parties because they are Immaterial Subsidiaries comprise in the aggregate more than 5% of Total Assets as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries or more than 5% of Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Borrower, then the Borrower shall, not later than 45 days after the date by which financial statements for such quarter are required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, cause one or more such Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries to become additional Loan Parties (notwithstanding that such Domestic Restricted Subsidiaries are, individually, Immaterial Subsidiaries) such that the foregoing condition ceases to be true.
(f) Notwithstanding any provision of the Loan Documents to the contrary, the Loan Parties shall not be required to grant a security interest in any personal property of a type that would not constitute Pledged Collateral or Article 9 Collateral (each as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 4.01 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement.
SECTION 5.12. Certain Post-Closing Collateral Obligations. As promptly as practicable, and in any event within the time periods after the Restatement Date specified in Schedule 5.12 or such later date as the Agent agrees to in its reasonable discretion, the Borrower and each other Loan Party will deliver the documents and take the actions specified in Schedule 5.12 that would have been required to be delivered or taken on or prior to the Restatement Date but for the last paragraph of Section 4.02(i), to the extent the Borrower and each other Loan Party has been unable to deliver such items or take such actions on or prior to the Closing Date after having used commercially reasonable efforts to so.

SECTION 6.09. Future Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create or acquire another Domestic Restricted Subsidiary unless such Domestic Restricted Subsidiary executes and delivers a Joinder Agreement and supplements to the other Loan Documents, providing for a Guarantee of payment of the Obligations by such Domestic

In the event of any Event of Default specified in clause (e) of the preceding paragraph of this Article, such Event of Default and all consequences thereof
129
(excluding any resulting payment default) shall be annulled, waived and rescinded automatically and without any action by the Agent or the Lenders if, within twenty (20) days after such Event of Default arose, (i) the Indebtedness or guarantee that is the basis for such Event of Default has been discharged, (ii) the holders thereof have rescinded or waived the acceleration, notice or action (as the case may be) giving rise to such Event of Default or (iii) the default that is the basis for such Event of Default has been cured.
ARTICLE VIII
The Agent
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Agent as its agent and authorizes the Agent to take such actions on its behalf, including execution of the other Loan Documents, and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.
The bank serving as the Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Loan Parties or any subsidiary of a Loan Party or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Agent hereunder.
The Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except, subject to the last paragraph of this Article VIII, discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Agent is required to exercise in writing as directed by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or wilful misconduct. The Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or in connection with any Loan Document, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan
130
Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral or the existence of the Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Agent.
The Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
The Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Agent. The Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the 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 Agent.
Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of the Borrower, to appoint a successor; provided that (i) during the existence and continuation of an Event of Default, no consent of the Borrower shall be required and (ii) any successor that shall also be the named secured party under any Collateral Document shall also be subject to the approval requirements, if any, of such Collateral Document. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent which shall be a commercial bank or an Affiliate of any such commercial bank reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Agent has been appointed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence by the 30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by such Agent, such Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of such Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint, with the consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (so long as no Event of Default exists), a successor administrative agent and/or collateral agent, as the case may be. Any such resignation by such Agent hereunder shall also constitute, to the extent applicable, its resignation as an Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, in which case such resigning Agent (x) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit or make any additional Swingline Loans hereunder and
131
(y) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it, or Swingline Loans made by it, prior to the date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.
Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender 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 related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
Each Lender (a) acknowledges that it has received a copy of each Collateral Documents, (b) without limiting the foregoing, agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Collateral Documents and (c) acknowledges that the Agent will, and hereby authorizes the Agent to, enter into (and be a party to) the Collateral Documents and any intercreditor agreements on behalf of itself, such Lender and the holders of any future Specified Secured Indebtedness. The Lenders further acknowledge that, pursuant to the Collateral Documents, the Agent will have the sole right to proceed against the Collateral. In the event of a foreclosure by the Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, any Secured Party may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by such Secured Party. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions. The provisions of this paragraph are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.
The Joint Lead Arrangers and joint bookrunners shall not have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such.

Holdings and the Borrower hereby agree that (1) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (2) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Holdings and the Borrower or their securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws; (3) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor”; and (4) the Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be deemed to be marked “PUBLIC”, unless Holdings or the Borrower notifies the Agent promptly that any such document contains material non-public information: (A) the Loan Documents, (B) notifications of changes in the terms of the Term Loans, Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, Swingline Loans, Swingline Commitments or L/C Commitments and (C) financial statements and accompanying information and certificates delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or (b).
(i) Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to communications and other information and materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may
134
contain material non-public information with respect to Holdings or a Borrower or its securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal or state securities laws.
THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS IS MADE BY THE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILFUL MISCONDUCT.
(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.
SECTION 9.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under any other Loan Document are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to the extent permitted by law, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
135
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, provided that the Borrower and the Agent may enter into an amendment to effect the provisions of Section 2.26(b) upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement and Section 2.27(b) upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Credit Increase Assumption Agreement or (ii) in the case of any other Loan Document (other than any such amendment to effectuate any modification thereto expressly contemplated by the terms of such other Loan Documents), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (A) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an increase of any Commitment of any Lender, (B) reduce or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest or fees (including any prepayment fees) payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (C) postpone any scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or L/C Disbursement, or any date for the payment of any interest, fees or other Obligations payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the provisions of Section 2.12(c) providing for the default rate of interest, or to waive any obligations of the Borrower to pay interest at such default rate, (D) change Sections 2.09(c), 2.10(g), 2.17(c) or 2.17(f) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender, (E) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender, (F) release any material Guarantor from its obligation under its Guarantee (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents), without the written consent of each Lender, or (G) except as provided in clauses (c) and (d) of this Section or in any Collateral Document, release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Agent hereunder without the prior written consent of the Agent. The Agent may without the consent of any Lender also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered into pursuant to Section 9.04. Upon the request of the Borrower, the Agent shall enter into such amendments (and may do so without the consent of any Lender, other agent, or the Issuing Bank) to the Collateral Documents (or enter into additional Collateral Documents or intercreditor agreements) to secure on a pari passu basis or junior basis, as the case may be, on terms reasonably acceptable to the Agent all obligations (including obligations comparable in scope to the Obligations) of all Specified Secured Indebtedness
136
having the same lien priority as, or a junior lien priority to, the Obligations permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01 and secured by Liens permitted to be incurred under Section 6.06 on all or a portion of the Collateral. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the consent of Holdings, the Borrower and the Required Lenders, this Agreement (including Sections 2.09(c), 2.10(g), 2.17(c) and 2.17(f)) may be amended (x) to allow the Borrower to prepay Loans of a Class on a non-pro rata basis in connection with offers made to all the Lenders of such Class pursuant to procedures approved by the Agent and (y) to allow the Borrower to make loan modification offers to all the Lenders of one or more Classes of Loans that, if accepted, would (A) allow the maturity and scheduled amortization of the Loans of the accepting Lenders to be extended, (B) increase the Applicable Rates and/or Fees payable with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the accepting Lenders and (C) treat the modified Loans and Commitments of the accepting Lenders as a new Class of Loans and Commitments for all purposes under this Agreement.
(c) The Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably agree that the Liens granted to the Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) upon the termination of the Commitments, payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Agent, (ii) upon the sale or other disposition of the property constituting such Collateral (including as part of or in connection with any other sale or other disposition permitted hereunder) to any Person other than another Loan Party, to the extent such sale or other disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Agent may rely conclusively on a certificate to that effect provided to it by any Loan Party upon its reasonable request without further inquiry), (iii) to the extent such Collateral is comprised of property leased to a Loan Party, upon termination or expiration of such lease, (iv) subject to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders, (v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guarantee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or (vi) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Agent and the Lenders pursuant to the Collateral. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral to the extent required under the provisions of the Loan Documents.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.02, guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Foreign Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Agent and may be amended and waived with the consent of the Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lenders if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee,
137
collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(e) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby”, the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then (x) the Agent may elect to purchase all (but not less than all) of (1) any affected Class of such Lender’s Commitments, the corresponding Loans owing to it and all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents in respect of such affected Class or (2) such Lender’s Commitments, the Loans owing to it and all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided that the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such purchase all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including, without limitation, payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.14 and 2.16 and an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such purchase under Section 2.15 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the Agent or (y) the Borrower may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement by the Borrower, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04, (ii) the replacement Lender shall grant its consent with respect to the applicable proposed amendment, waiver or consent and (iii) the Borrower shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including, without limitation, payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.14 and 2.16, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.15 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. Each Lender agrees that if the Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be, exercises its option hereunder, it shall promptly execute and deliver all agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment as set forth in Section 9.04. The Agent or the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such agreement and documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting Lender and any such agreement and/or documentation so executed by the Agent or the Borrower shall be effective for purposes of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 9.04.
(f) The Agent, Holdings and the Borrower may amend any Loan Document to correct administrative or manifest errors or omissions, or to effect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender; provided, however, that no
138
such amendment shall become effective until the fifth Business Day after it has been posted to the Lenders, and then only if the Required Lenders have not objected in writing thereto within such five Business Day period.
SECTION 9.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver. (a) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to pay (i) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the financial institutions identified as the Joint Bookrunners on the cover of this Agreement, and their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Xxxxx LLP, counsel for the Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers, in connection with the syndication and distribution (including, without limitation, via the internet or through a service such as Intralinks) of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation of the Loan Documents and related documentation, (ii) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent and its Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of outside legal counsel to the Agent, in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions of any Loan Documents (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby shall be consummated), (iii) all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Lenders, including the reasonable documented fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Agent and for one law firm retained by the Lenders (and one local counsel for both the Agent and the Lenders in each relevant jurisdiction and, in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel per group of affected parties), in connection with the enforcement, collection or protection of its rights in connection with the Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or related negotiations in respect of such Loans, and (iv) subject to any other provisions of this Agreement, of the Loan Documents or of any separate agreement entered into by the Borrower and the Agent with respect thereto, all reasonable documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Agent in the administration of the Loan Documents. Expenses reimbursable by the Borrower under this Section include, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, subject to any other applicable provision of any Loan Document, reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with:
(i) lien and title searches and title insurance; and
(ii) Taxes, fees and other charges for recording the Mortgages, filing financing statements and continuations, and other actions to perfect, protect, and continue the Agent’s Liens.
Other than to the extent required to be paid on the Restatement Date, all amounts due under this paragraph (a) shall be payable by the Borrower within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of an invoice relating thereto and setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail.
(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Issuing Banks and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing
139
Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, but excluding Taxes (other than Taxes referred to in Section 9.03(a)) which shall be dealt with exclusively pursuant to Section 2.16 above, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of the Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby (including the use of proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit), (ii) any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or to any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iii) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Agent such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, penalty, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Agent in its capacity as such.
(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other party hereto or any Related Party thereof, 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 or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that the foregoing shall not preclude any Indemnitee from seeking to recover the preceding types of damages from the Borrower to the extent (a) otherwise required to be paid by Borrower to such Indemnitee under Section 9.02(b) and (b) specifically payable by such Indemnitee to any third party.
(e) All amounts due under this Section shall be paid promptly after written demand therefor.
SECTION 9.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) the Borrower may not
140
assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section (any attempted assignment or transfer not complying with the terms of this Section shall be null and void). Nothing in 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 (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.
(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may 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 Commitment or the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of:
(A) the Borrower (such consent being deemed given with respect to the assignment of Term Loans only unless the Borrower shall have objected to such assignment by written notice to the Agent within five Business Days after having received notice thereof), provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (2) if an Event of Default specified in paragraphs (a), (b), (f) or (g) of Article VII has occurred and is continuing, any other Eligible Assignee and provided further that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment during the primary syndication of the Loans to Persons identified by the Agent to the Borrower on or prior to the Restatement Date and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower;
(B) the Agent; and
(C) the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank, in the case of any assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment.
(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:
(A) except in the case of an assignment to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or the principal amount of Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
141
Agent and determined on an aggregate basis in the event of concurrent assignments to Related Funds (as defined below)) shall be in a minimum amount of at least $5,000,000 in the case of Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Loans and in a minimum amount of at least of $1,000,000 in the case of Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans unless each of the Borrower and the Agent otherwise consent;
(B) each partial assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment or Revolving Loan shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Credit Exposure;
(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Agent (or, if previously agreed with the Agent, manually) and, in each case, shall pay to the Agent a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (which fee may be waived or reduced in the sole discretion of the Agent); and
(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver on or prior to the effective date of such assignment, to the Agent (1) an Administrative Questionnaire and (2) if applicable, an appropriate Internal Revenue Service form (such as Form W-8BEN or W-8ECI or any successor form adopted by the relevant United States taxing authority) as required by applicable law supporting such assignee’s position that no withholding by any Borrower or the Agent for United States income tax payable by such assignee in respect of amounts received by it hereunder is required.
The term “Related Funds” means with respect to any Lender that is an Approved Fund, any other Approved Fund that is managed or advised by the same investment advisor as such Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor.
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be
142
entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 (subject to the requirements of Section 2.16) and 9.03 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring on or 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 Section 9.04 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 paragraph (c) of this Section.
(iv) The Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, or principal amount of, and any interest on, the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire and tax certifications required by Section 9.04(b)(ii)(D)(2) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and promptly record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 2.17(b) or 9.03(c), the Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 9.04.
(vi) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Assumption, the assigning Lender thereunder and the assignee thereunder shall be deemed to confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) such assigning Lender warrants that it is the legal and beneficial owner of the interest being assigned thereby free and clear of any adverse claim and that its Commitment, and the outstanding balances of its Loans, in each case without giving effect to assignments thereof which have not become effective, are as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) except as set forth in (i) above, such assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement, or the execution,
143
legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any Subsidiary or the performance or observance by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of any of its obligations under this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other instrument or document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee represents and warrants that it is an Eligible Assignee, legally authorized to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (iv) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with copies of the most recent financial statements referred to in Section 3.04(a) or delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Assumption; (v) such assignee will independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (vi) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vii) such assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.
(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment or the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (C) the Borrower, the 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 and (D) no such Participant shall be a “creditor” as defined in Regulation T or a “foreign branch of a broker-dealer” within the meaning of Regulation X. 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, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.17(b) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of each
144
Participant and the principal amounts of, and stated interest on, each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to the Borrower, the Agent or any other Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in the Commitments, Loans or other Obligations) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitments, Loans or other Obligations are 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 may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.14 or 2.16 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’s prior written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(f) as though it were a Lender.
(d) 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, without limitation, any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPC”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Agent and the Borrower, the option to provide to the Borrower all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to make any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) no SPC shall be a “creditor” as defined in Regulation T or a “foreign branch of a broker-dealer” within the meaning of Regulation X. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. 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 (including its obligations under Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16), (ii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for
145
which shall remain with the Granting Lender) and (iii) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes including approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of the Loan Documents, remain the Lender of record hereunder. 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 indebtedness 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 proceedings under the laws of the United States or any state thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrower and the Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrower and Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPC to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.
SECTION 9.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.
SECTION 9.06. Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Engagement Letter and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement shall become effective as provided for in the Amendment and Restatement Agreement.
SECTION 9.07. Severability. To the extent permitted by law, any provision of any Loan Document held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of
146
the remaining provisions thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
SECTION 9.08. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower or any Guarantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may be unmatured. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Agent of such set-off or application, provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such set-off or application under this Section. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, AT ANY TIME THAT ANY OF THE OBLIGATIONS SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LENDER’S LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY LOAN DOCUMENT UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT OF THE LENDERS REQUIRED BY SECTION 9.02 OF THIS AGREEMENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY, OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO THE AGENT PURSUANT TO THE COLLATERAL DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF THE OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OR ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE PARTIES AS REQUIRED ABOVE, SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS PARAGRAPH SHALL BE SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS.
SECTION 9.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
(b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any U.S. Federal or New York State court sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, New York, New York in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and

Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(c) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(d) To the extent permitted by law, each party to this Agreement hereby irrevocably waives personal service of any and all process upon it and agrees that all such service of process may be made by registered mail (return receipt requested) directed to it at its address for notices as provided for in Section 9.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
SECTION 9.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED THEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.
SECTION 9.11. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
SECTION 9.12. Confidentiality. The Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender agrees (and each Lender agrees to cause its SPC, if any) to maintain the
148
confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, trustees, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory, governmental or administrative authority, (c) to the extent required by law or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, including, without limitation, any SPC, (ii) any pledgee referred to in Section 9.04(d) or (iii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Loan Parties and their obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to the Loan Parties or their businesses, or the Transactions other than any such information that is available to the Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party. 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 9.13. Several Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that (a) it is not relying on or looking to any Margin Stock for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein and acknowledges that the Collateral shall not include any Margin Stock and (b) it is not and will not become a “creditor” as defined in Regulation T or a “foreign branch of a broker-dealer” within the meaning of Regulation X. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, no Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrower in violation of any Requirement of Law.
SECTION 9.14. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender and the Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act.

SECTION 9.15. Disclosure. Each Loan Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Agent and/or its Affiliates from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective Affiliates. In addition, each Loan Party and each Lender hereby acknowledges that an Affiliate of the Agent was an initial purchaser of the Senior Subordinated Notes.
SECTION 9.16. Appointment for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of the Agent and the Lenders, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable law can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with the Agent’s instructions.
SECTION 9.17. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
SECTION 9.18. Effect of Restatement. This Agreement shall, except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, supersede the Existing Credit Agreements from and after the Restatement Date with respect to the transactions hereunder and with respect to the Loans and Letters of Credit outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreements as of the Restatement Date. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree, however, that (a) this Agreement and all other Loan Documents executed and delivered herewith do not constitute a novation, payment and reborrowing or termination of the Obligations under the Existing Credit Agreements (except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to the Existing Bank Debt Refinancing) and the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the Restatement Date, (b) such Obligations (except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to the Existing Bank Debt Refinancing) are in all respects continuing with only the terms being modified as provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (c) the liens and security interests in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties securing payment of such Obligations are in all respects continuing and in full
150
force and effect with respect to all Obligations (except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to the Existing Bank Debt Refinancing) and (d) all references in the other Loan Documents to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer without further amendment to this Agreement.

Guarantee
Section 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor unconditionally guarantees, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, as a primary obligor and not merely as a surety, the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the Secured Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any extension or renewal of any Secured Obligation. Each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to the Borrower or any other Loan Party of any of the Secured Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guarantee and notice of protest for nonpayment.
Section 2.02. Guarantee of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Secured Obligations or to any balance of any Deposit Account or credit on the books of the Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other person.
Section 2.03. No Limitations, Etc. (a) Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 7.15, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or otherwise (other than the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), together with the termination of the Commitments and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Agent). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of any Loan Document or any other agreement,
10
including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of, or any failure to perfect any Lien on or security interest in, any security held by the Agent or any other Secured Party for the Secured Obligations or any of them; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Secured Obligations; or (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), together with the termination of the Commitments and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Agent). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Agent to take and hold security for the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in its sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Secured Obligations, all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.
(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of the Borrower or any other Loan Party or the unenforceability of the Secured Obligations or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of the Borrower or any other Loan Party (other than the payment and satisfaction in full in cash of all Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), together with the termination of the Commitments and the cash collateralization of all Unliquidated Obligations in a manner satisfactory to the Agent). The Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Secured Obligations, make any other accommodation with the Borrower or any other Loan Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations) have been fully paid and satisfied in full in cash, the Commitments have been terminated and the Unliquidated Obligations have been cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Agent. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party, as the case may be, or any security.
Section 2.04. Reinstatement. Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guarantee hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Secured Obligation is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by the Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or otherwise.
Section 2.05. Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other
11
Loan Party to pay any Secured Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity, by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Agent for distribution to the applicable Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Secured Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Guarantor arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article VI.
Section 2.06. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrower’s and each other Loan Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Secured Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.
ARTICLE III

(b) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Agent shall have notified (or shall be deemed to have notified) the Grantors of the suspension of their rights under paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.06, then all rights of any Grantor to dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor is authorized to receive pursuant to paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.06 shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to receive and retain such dividends, interest, principal or other distributions. All dividends, interest, principal or other distributions received by any Grantor contrary to the provisions of this Section 3.06 shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Agent and the other Secured Parties, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Grantor and shall be forthwith delivered to the Agent upon demand in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). Any and all money and other property paid over to or received by the Agent pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (b) shall be retained by the Agent in an account to be established by the Agent upon receipt of such money or other property and shall be applied in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.02. After all Events of Default have been cured or waived and the applicable Grantor or Grantors have delivered to the Agent certificates to that effect, the Agent shall, promptly after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived, repay to each applicable Grantor (without interest) all dividends, interest, principal or other distributions that such Grantor would otherwise be permitted to retain pursuant to the terms of paragraph (a)(iii) of this Section 3.06 and that remain in such account.
(c) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, after the Agent shall have notified (or shall be deemed to have notified) the Grantors of the suspension of their rights under paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.06, then all rights of any Grantor to exercise the voting and consensual rights and powers it is entitled to exercise pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 3.06, and the obligations of the Agent under paragraph (a)(ii) of this Section 3.06, shall cease, and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Agent, which shall have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise such voting and consensual rights and powers; provided that, unless otherwise directed by the Required Lenders, the Agent shall have the right from time to time following and during the continuance of an Event of Default to permit the Grantors to exercise such rights.
(d) Any notice given by the Agent to the Grantors exercising its rights under paragraph (a) of this Section 3.06(i) may be given by telephone if promptly confirmed in writing, (ii) may be given to one or more of the Grantors at the same or different times and (iii) may suspend the rights of the Grantors under paragraph (a)(i) or paragraph (a)(iii) in part without suspending all such rights (as specified by the Agent in its sole and absolute discretion) and without waiving or otherwise affecting the Agent’s rights to give additional notices from time to time suspending other rights so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(a) Subject to the rights of such Grantor under the Loan Documents, each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all actions it deems necessary in the prudent conduct of the business of such Grantor (to be determined in Grantor’s reasonable discretion) to defend title to the Article 9 Collateral against all persons and to defend the Security Interest of the Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Each Grantor agrees that it shall not change such Grantor’s name, corporate structure (e.g., by merger, consolidation, change in corporate form or otherwise), type of organization or jurisdiction of organization unless it shall have (i) notified the Agent in writing at least twenty (20) days (or such shorter time as agreed to by the Agent) prior to any such change or establishment, identifying such new proposed name, corporate structure or jurisdiction of organization and providing such other information in connection therewith as the Agent may reasonably request and (ii) taken all actions necessary or advisable to maintain the continuous validity, perfection and the same or better priority of the Security Interest in the Collateral intended to be granted and agreed to hereby.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby authorizes the Agent, with prompt notice thereof to the Grantors, to supplement this Agreement by supplementing Schedule III or adding additional schedules hereto to specifically identify any asset or item that may, in the Agent’s judgment, constitute Copyrights, Licenses, Patents or Trademarks; provided that any Grantor shall have the right, exercisable within 10 days (or such longer time as agreed to by the Agent) after it has been notified by the Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral, to advise the Agent in writing of any material inaccuracy of the representations and warranties made by such Grantor hereunder with respect to such Collateral. Each Grantor agrees that it will use its best efforts to take such action as shall be necessary in order that all representations and warranties hereunder shall be true and correct in all material respects with respect to such Collateral within 30 days (or such longer time as agreed to by the Agent) after the date it has been notified by the Agent of the specific identification of such Collateral.
(d) After the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Agent shall have the right to verify under reasonable procedures the validity, amount, quality, quantity, value, condition and status of, or any other matter relating to, the Article 9 Collateral, including, in the case of Accounts or other Article 9 Collateral in the possession of any third person, by contacting Account Debtors or the third person possessing such Article 9 Collateral for the purpose of making such a verification. The Agent shall have the right to share any information it gains from such inspection or verification with any Secured Party.
(e) At its option, the Agent may, after prior written notice to the Borrower, discharge past due Taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances at any time levied or placed on the Article 9 Collateral and not expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.06 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement or this Agreement, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to reimburse the Agent on demand for any payment made or any expense incurred by the Agent pursuant to the foregoing authorization; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Agent or any Secured Party to cure or perform, any covenants or other promises of any Grantor with respect to Taxes, assessments, charges, fees, Liens, security interests or other encumbrances and maintenance as set forth herein or in the other Loan Documents.
(f) If at any time any Grantor shall take a security interest in any property of an Account Debtor or any other person to secure payment and performance of an Account in excess of $500,000, such Grantor shall promptly assign such security interest to the Agent. Such assignment need not be filed of public record unless necessary to continue the perfected status of
22
the security interest against creditors of and transferees from the Account Debtor or other person granting the security interest.
(g) As between each Grantor, the Agent and the Secured Parties, each Grantor shall remain liable to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral, and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Agent and the Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance.
(h) None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made an assignment, pledge or hypothecation of the Article 9 Collateral or shall grant any other Lien in respect of the Article 9 Collateral, except as expressly permitted by Section 6.06 of the Credit Agreement. None of the Grantors shall make or permit to be made any transfer of the Article 9 Collateral, except as expressly permitted by Sections 6.03 and 6.07 of the Credit Agreement.
(i) None of the Grantors will, without the Agent’s prior written consent, grant any extension of the time of payment of any Accounts included in the Article 9 Collateral, compromise, compound or settle the same for less than the full amount thereof, release, wholly or partly, any person liable for the payment thereof or allow any credit or discount whatsoever thereon, other than extensions, credits, discounts, compromises, compoundings or settlements granted or made in good faith in the prudent conduct of the business of such Grantor.
(j) The Grantors, at their own expense, shall maintain or cause to be maintained insurance covering physical loss or damage to the Inventory and Equipment in accordance with the requirements set forth in Section 5.10 of the Credit Agreement. Each Grantor irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact) for the purpose, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required hereby or under the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or part relating thereto, the Agent may, without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Event of Default, in its sole discretion, after prior written notice to the Borrower, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Agent deems advisable. All sums disbursed by the Agent in connection with this paragraph, including attorneys’ fees, court costs, expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors to the Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.
Section 4.04. Other Actions.

23
(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments in excess of $500,000, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Agent may from time to time specify.
(b) Deposit Accounts. For each Deposit Account that any Grantor at any time opens or maintains, other than (A) segregated Deposit Accounts constituting (and the balance of which consists solely of funds set aside in connection with) payroll accounts, withholding tax accounts, or trust, escrow or other fiduciary accounts or (B) Deposit Accounts the daily balance of which does not at any time exceed $1,000,000 for any such account or $10,000,000 for all such accounts, such Grantor shall, within 90 days (or such later date as agreed to by the Agent) of the date of receipt by the Borrower of a written request of the Agent, either (i) cause the depositary bank to agree to comply at any time with instructions from the Agent to such depositary bank directing the disposition of funds from time to time credited to such Deposit Account, without further consent of such Grantor or any other person, pursuant to a Control Agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, or (ii) arrange for the Agent to become the customer of the depositary bank with respect to the Deposit Account, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw funds from such Deposit Account. The Agent agrees with each Grantor that the Agent shall not give any such instructions or withhold any withdrawal rights from any Grantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any withdrawal, would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Deposit Account for which any Grantor, the depositary bank and the Agent have entered into a cash collateral agreement specially negotiated among such Grantor, the depositary bank and the Agent for the specific purpose set forth therein.
(c) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article III, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Grantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the Agent’s request and option, within ninety (90) days (or such later date as agreed to by the Agent) of the date of the Agent’s request, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, either (a) cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from the Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (b) arrange for the Agent to become the registered owner of the securities. If any securities, whether certificated or uncertificated, or other Investment Property now or hereafter acquired by any Grantor are held by such Grantor or its nominee through a Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the Agent’s request and option, within ninety (90) days (or such later date as agreed to by the Agent) of the date of the Agent’s request, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, either (a) cause such Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, as the case may be, to agree to comply with Entitlement
24
Orders or other instructions from the Agent to such Securities Intermediary as to such securities or other Investment Property, or (as the case may be) to apply any value distributed on account of any commodity contract as directed by the Agent to such Commodity Intermediary, in each case without further consent of any Grantor or such nominee, or (b) in the case of Financial Assets (as governed by Article 8 of the New York UCC) or other Investment Property held through a Securities Intermediary, arrange for the Agent to become the Entitlement Holder with respect to such Investment Property, with the Grantor being permitted, only with the consent of the Agent, to exercise rights to withdraw or otherwise deal with such Investment Property. The Agent agrees with each of the Grantors that the Agent shall not give any such Entitlement Orders or instructions or directions to any such issuer, Securities Intermediary or Commodity Intermediary, and shall not withhold its consent to the exercise of any withdrawal or dealing rights, by any Grantor, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, or, after giving effect to any such investment and withdrawal rights, would occur. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any Financial Assets credited to a Securities Account for which the Agent is the Securities Intermediary.
(d) Electronic Chattel Paper and Transferable Records. If any Grantor at any time holds or acquires an interest in any Electronic Chattel Paper or any “transferable record”, as that term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the request of the Agent, shall take such action as the Agent may request to vest in the Agent control under New York UCC Section 9-105 of such Electronic Chattel Paper or control under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as so in effect in such jurisdiction, of such transferable record. The Agent agrees with such Grantor that the Agent will arrange, pursuant to procedures satisfactory to the Agent and so long as such procedures will not result in the Agent’s loss of control, for the Grantor to make alterations to the Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record permitted under UCC Section 9-105 or, as the case may be, Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act for a party in control to allow without loss of control, unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur after taking into account any action by such Grantor with respect to such Electronic Chattel Paper or transferable record.
(e) Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Grantor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit now or hereafter issued in favor of such Grantor, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof and, at the request and option of the Agent, such Grantor shall, pursuant to an agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent, either (i) arrange for the issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, with the Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit
25
are to be paid to the applicable Grantor unless an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing.

If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in excess of $1,000,000, the Grantor shall promptly notify the Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor including a summary description of such claim and grant to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement, with such writing to be in form and substance satisfactory to the Agent.
Section 4.05. Covenants regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. (a) Each Grantor agrees that it will not, and will not permit any of its licensees to, do any act, or omit to do any act, whereby any Patent that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, may become invalidated or dedicated to the public, and agrees that it shall continue to xxxx any products covered by a Patent with the relevant patent number as necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights under applicable patent laws.
(b) Each Grantor (either itself or through its licensees or its sublicensees) will, for each Trademark material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (i) maintain such Trademark in full force free from any claim of abandonment or invalidity for non-use, (ii) maintain the quality of products and services offered under such Trademark, (iii) display such Trademark with notice of Federal or foreign registration to the extent necessary and sufficient to establish and preserve its maximum rights under applicable law and (iv) not knowingly use or knowingly permit the use of such Trademark in violation of any third party rights.

(d) Each Grantor shall notify the Agent promptly if it knows or has reason to know that any Patent, Trademark or Copyright that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, may become abandoned, lost or dedicated to the public, or of any adverse determination or development (including the institution of or any such determination or development in, any proceeding in the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any court or similar office of any country) regarding such Grantor’s ownership of any such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, its right to register the same, or its right to keep and maintain the same.
(e) In no event shall any Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, file an application for any Patent, Trademark or Copyright (or for the registration of any Trademark or Copyright) with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any office or agency in any political subdivision of the United States or in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, with respect to any of the same

which is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, unless it promptly informs the Agent, and, upon request of the Agent, executes and delivers any and all agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Agent may request to evidence the Security Interest in such Patent, Trademark or Copyright, and each Grantor hereby appoints the Agent as its attorney-in-fact to execute and file such writings for the foregoing purposes, all acts of such attorney being hereby ratified and confirmed; such power, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable.
(f) Each Grantor will take all necessary steps that it deems appropriate under the circumstances and are consistent with the practice in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, United States Copyright Office or any office or agency in any political subdivision of the United States or in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application relating to any Patent, Trademark and/or Copyright (and to obtain the relevant grant or registration) that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, and to maintain each issued Patent and each registration of the Trademarks and Copyrights that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, including timely filings of applications for renewal, affidavits of use, affidavits of incontestability and payment of maintenance fees, and, if consistent with good business judgment, to initiate opposition, interference and cancellation proceedings against third parties.
(g) In the event that any Grantor knows or has reason to believe that any Article 9 Collateral consisting of a Patent, Trademark or Copyright that is material to the conduct of the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, has been or is about to be infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Grantor promptly shall notify the Agent and shall, if consistent with good business judgment, promptly xxx for infringement, misappropriation or dilution and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution, and take such other actions as are appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Article 9 Collateral. Such Grantor may discontinue or settle any such suit or other action if the Grantor deems such discontinuance or settlement to be appropriate in its reasonable business judgment.
(h) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall, at the request of the Agent, use its best efforts to obtain all requisite consents or approvals by the licensor of each Copyright License, Patent License or Trademark License to effect the assignment of all such Grantor’s right, title and interest thereunder to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, or its designee.
ARTICLE V
Remedies
Section 5.01. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver each item of Collateral to the Agent on demand, and it is agreed that the Agent shall have the right to take any of or all the following actions at the same or different times: (a) with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, on demand, to cause the Security Interest to become an
27
assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Agent, or to license or sublicense, whether general, special or otherwise, and whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any such Article 9 Collateral throughout the world on such terms and conditions and in such manner as the Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any then-existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained), and (b) with or without legal process and with or without prior notice or demand for performance, to take possession of the Article 9 Collateral and without liability for trespass to enter any premises where the Article 9 Collateral may be located for the purpose of taking possession of or removing the Article 9 Collateral and, generally, to exercise any and all rights afforded to a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or any part of the Collateral at a public or private sale or at any broker’s board or on any securities exchange, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery as the Agent shall deem appropriate. The Agent shall be authorized at any such sale (if it deems it advisable to do so) to restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing the Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or sale thereof, and upon consummation of any such sale the Agent shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the property sold absolutely, free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and the Grantors hereby waive (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which such Grantor now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted.
The Agent shall give the applicable Grantors 10 days’ written notice (which each Grantor agrees is reasonable notice within the meaning of Section 9-611 of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions) of the Agent’s intention to make any sale of Collateral. Such notice, in the case of a public sale, shall state the time and place for such sale and, in the case of a sale at a broker’s board or on a securities exchange, shall state the board or exchange at which such sale is to be made and the day on which the Collateral, or portion thereof, will first be offered for sale at such board or exchange. Any such public sale shall be held at such time or times within ordinary business hours and at such place or places as the Agent may fix and state in the notice (if any) of such sale. At any such sale, the Collateral, or portion thereof, to be sold may be sold in one lot as an entirety or in separate parcels, as the Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of any Collateral if it shall determine not to do so, regardless of the fact that notice of sale of such Collateral shall have been given. The Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any public or private sale or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. In case any sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Collateral so sold may be retained by the Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Agent shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to take up and pay for the Collateral so sold and, in case of any such failure, such Collateral may be sold again upon like notice. At any public (or, to the extent permitted by law, private) sale made pursuant to this Section, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from
28
any right of redemption, stay, valuation or appraisal on the part of any Grantor (all said rights being also hereby waived and released to the extent permitted by law), the Collateral or any part thereof offered for sale and may make payment on account thereof by using any claim then due and payable to such Secured Party from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Party may, upon compliance with the terms of sale, hold, retain and dispose of such property without further accountability to any Grantor therefor. For purposes hereof, a written agreement to purchase the Collateral or any portion thereof shall be treated as a sale thereof; the Agent shall be free to carry out such sale pursuant to such agreement and no Grantor shall be entitled to the return of the Collateral or any portion thereof subject thereto, notwithstanding the fact that after the Agent shall have entered into such an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Secured Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Agent may proceed by a suit or suits at law or in equity to foreclose this Agreement and to sell the Collateral or any portion thereof pursuant to a judgment or decree of a court or courts having competent jurisdiction or pursuant to a proceeding by a court-appointed receiver. Any sale pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercially reasonable standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.
Section 5.02. Application of Proceeds. The Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection, sale, foreclosure or other realization upon any Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows:
FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Agent (in its capacity as such hereunder or under any other Loan Document) in connection with such collection, sale, foreclosure or realization or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all court costs and the reasonable documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other reasonable documented out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document;
SECOND, to the payment in full of the Secured Obligations (the amounts so applied to be distributed among the Secured Parties pro rata in accordance with the amounts of the Secured Obligations owed to them on the date of any such distribution); and
THIRD, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.
The Agent shall have absolute discretion (as between the Secured Parties and the Grantors) as to the time of application of any such proceeds, moneys or balances in accordance with this Agreement. Upon any sale of Collateral by the Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Agent or of the officer making the sale shall be a sufficient discharge to the purchaser or purchasers of the Collateral so sold and such purchaser or purchasers shall not be obligated to see to the application of any part
29
of the purchase money paid over to the Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof.
Section 5.03. Enforcement by the Agent. (a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Agent shall act in relation to the Collateral in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement.
(b) The Agent may disregard any instructions from any other Person to exercise any right or remedy hereunder with respect to the Collateral and any instructions that are inconsistent with this Agreement.
(c) Subject to clause (a), the Required Lenders under the Credit Agreement may give or refrain from giving instructions to the Agent to exercise or refrain from exercising any right or remedy hereunder with respect to the Collateral as the Agent sees fit in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement.
(d) The Agent shall inform each Lender on receiving any instructions under this Section 5.03 to exercise all rights or remedies with respect to the Collateral.
Section 5.04. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. For the purpose of enabling the Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Article at such time as the Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such rights and remedies, each Grantor hereby grants to the Agent an irrevocable, nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use, license or sublicense any of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired by such Grantor, and wherever the same may be located, and including in such license access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof. The use of such license by the Agent may be exercised, at the option of the Agent, only upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided, however, that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Agent in accordance herewith shall be binding upon the Grantors notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default.
Section 5.05. Securities Act, etc. In view of the position of the Grantors in relation to the Pledged Collateral, or because of other current or future circumstances, a question may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as now or hereafter in effect, or any similar statute hereafter enacted analogous in purpose or effect (such Act and any such similar statute as from time to time in effect being called the “Federal Securities Laws”) with respect to any disposition of the Pledged Collateral permitted hereunder. Each Grantor understands that compliance with the Federal Securities Laws might very strictly limit the course of conduct of the Agent if the Agent were to attempt to dispose of all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, and might also limit the extent to which or the manner in which any subsequent transferee of any Pledged Collateral could dispose of the same. Similarly, there may be other legal restrictions or limitations affecting the Agent in any attempt to dispose of all or part of the Pledged Collateral under applicable “blue sky” or other state securities laws or similar laws analogous in purpose or effect. Each Grantor recognizes that in light of such restrictions and limitations the Agent may, with
30
respect to any sale of the Pledged Collateral, limit the purchasers to those who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Pledged Collateral for their own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that in light of such restrictions and limitations, the Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion (a) may proceed to make such a sale whether or not a registration statement for the purpose of registering such Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under the Federal Securities Laws and (b) may approach and negotiate with such number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) as the Agent determines to be reasonable to effect such sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that any such sale might result in prices and other terms less favorable to the seller than if such sale were a public sale without such restrictions. In the event of any such sale, the Agent shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good xxxxx xxxx reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized if the sale were deferred until after registration as aforesaid or if more than a limited number of potential purchasers (or a single potential purchaser) were approached. The provisions of this Section 5.05 will apply notwithstanding the existence of a public or private market upon which the quotations or sales prices may exceed substantially the price at which the Agent sells.
ARTICLE VI
Indemnity, Subrogation and Subordination
Section 6.01. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 6.03), the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment and (b) in the event any assets of any Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to this Agreement or any other Collateral Document to satisfy in whole or in part a claim of any Secured Party, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor in an amount equal to the greater of the book value or the fair market value of the assets so sold.
Section 6.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Guarantor”) agrees (subject to Section 6.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligation or assets of any other Guarantor shall be sold pursuant to any Collateral Document to satisfy any Secured Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Guarantor”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 6.01, the Contributing Guarantor shall indemnify the Claiming Guarantor in an amount equal to the amount of such payment or the greater of the book value or the fair market value of such assets, as the case may be, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Guarantor on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Guarantors on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 7.16, the date of the Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor).
31
Any Contributing Guarantor making any payment to a Claiming Guarantor pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Guarantor under Section 6.01 to the extent of such payment.
Section 6.03. Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 6.01 and 6.02 and all other rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 6.01 and 6.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.
(b) Each of the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of the Secured Obligations.
ARTICLE VII
Miscellaneous
Section 7.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 7.02. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Agent hereunder, the Security Interest, the grant of a security interest in the Pledged Collateral and all obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Secured Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guarantee, securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Secured Obligations, or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Secured Obligations or this Agreement.
Section 7.03. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any Lender or Issuing Bank or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Agent, the Issuing Banks
32
or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended under the Credit Agreement, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under any Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or the aggregate L/C Exposure does not equal zero and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated.
Section 7.04. Binding Effect; Several Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Loan Party when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Loan Party shall have been delivered to the Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Loan Party and the Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Loan Party, the Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Loan Party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein or in the Collateral (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Loan Party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Loan Party without the approval of any other Loan Party and without affecting the obligations of any other Loan Party hereunder.
Section 7.05. Successors and Assigns. Whenever in this Agreement any of the parties hereto is referred to, such reference shall be deemed to include the permitted successors and assigns of such party; and all covenants, promises and agreements by or on behalf of any Grantor or the Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.
Section 7.06. Agent’s Fees and Expenses: Indemnification. (a) The parties hereto agree that the Agent shall be entitled to reimbursement of its expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement.
(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify the Agent and the other Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, or to the Collateral, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, however, that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.
(c) Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby and by the other Collateral Documents. The provisions of this Section 7.06 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the consummation of the transactions
33
contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Secured Obligations, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Agent or any other Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 7.06 shall be payable on written demand therefor and shall bear interest at the rate specified in Section 2.12 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 7.07. Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Facts. Each Grantor hereby appoints the Agent as the attorney-in-fact of such Grantor for the purpose of carrying out the provisions of this Agreement and taking any action and executing any instrument that the Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agent shall have the right, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, with full power of substitution either in the Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, endorse, assign and/or deliver any and all notes, acceptances, checks, drafts, money orders or other evidences of payment relating to the Collateral or any part thereof; (b) to demand, collect, receive payment of, give receipt for and give discharges and releases of all or any of the Collateral; (c) to sign the name of any Grantor on any invoice or xxxx of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) to send verifications of Accounts Receivable to any Account Debtor; (e) to commence and prosecute any and all suits, actions or proceedings at law or in equity in any court of competent jurisdiction to collect or otherwise realize on all or any of the Collateral or to enforce any rights in respect of any Collateral; (f) to settle, compromise, compound, adjust or defend any actions, suits or proceedings relating to all or any of the Collateral; (g) to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Agent; and (h) to use, sell, assign, transfer, pledge, make any agreement with respect to or otherwise deal with all or any of the Collateral, and to do all other acts and things necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, as fully and completely as though the Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Agent, or to present or file any claim or notice, or to take any action with respect to the Collateral or any part thereof or the moneys due or to become due in respect thereof or any property covered thereby. The Agent and the other Secured Parties shall be accountable only for amounts actually received as a result of the exercise of the powers granted to them herein, and neither they nor their officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to any Grantor for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for their own gross negligence or willful misconduct.
Section 7.08. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
Section 7.09. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver hereof or thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and
34
under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.
(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement.
Section 7.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 7.10.
Section 7.11. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
Section 7.12. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 7.04. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.
35
Section 7.13. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.
Section 7.14. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America, sitting in New York City, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court. Each of the Loan Parties agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall affect any right that the Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.
(b) Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (a) of this Section. Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.
(c) Each of the Loan Parties hereby irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of the Agent to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.
Section 7.15. Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement, the Guarantees, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate when all the Secured Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations) have been paid and satisfied in full in cash (and the Commitments have been terminated and the Unliquidated Obligations have been cash collateralized in a manner satisfactory to the Agent) and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement, the aggregate L/C Exposure under the Credit Agreement has been reduced to zero and the Issuing Banks have no further obligations to issue Letters of Credit under the Credit Agreement.
(b) A Subsidiary Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and the Security Interest in the Collateral of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released upon the consummation of any transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary of the Borrower.
36
(c) Upon any sale or other transfer by any Grantor of any Collateral that is permitted under the Credit Agreement to any person that is not the Borrower or a Guarantor, or, upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the Security Interest granted hereby in any Collateral pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Credit Agreement, the Security Interest in such Collateral shall be automatically released and the Agent will confirm such release in writing promptly after written request therefor.
(d) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a), (b) or (c) above, the Agent shall execute and deliver to any Grantor, at such Grantor’s expense, all documents that such Grantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 7.15 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Agent. Without limiting the provisions of Section 7.06, the Borrower shall reimburse the Agent upon demand for all costs and out of pocket expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel, incurred by it in connection with any action contemplated by this Section 7.15.
Section 7.16. Additional Guarantors. Any Subsidiary that is required to become a party hereto pursuant to Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement shall enter into this Agreement as a Subsidiary Guarantor as so required. Upon execution and delivery by the Agent and any such Subsidiary of a supplement in the form of Exhibit A hereto, such Subsidiary shall become a Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Subsidiary Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Loan Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Loan Party as a party to this Agreement.
Section 7.17. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any and all of the obligations of such Grantor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender , irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, as security for the payment and performance in full of the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), does hereby create and grant to the Agent, its successors and assigns, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties,
their successors and assigns, a security interest in and lien on all of the New Subsidiary’s right, title and interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to a “Grantor” or a “Subsidiary Guarantor” in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.
SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Agent and the other Secured Parties that this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity.
SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Agent shall have received counterparts of this Supplement that, when taken together, bear the signatures of the New Subsidiary and the Agent. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

SECTION 7. In case any one or more of the provisions contained in this Supplement should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.
SECTION 8. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 7.01 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to the New Subsidiary shall be given to it at the address set forth under its signature below.
