(ii)within one year calendar following the date of receipt of such Net Disposition Proceeds or such Net Casualty Proceeds, such proceeds are applied or committed to such application.
The amount of such retained Net Disposition Proceeds or retained Net Casualty Proceeds unused or uncommitted after such one-year period shall be applied to prepay the Loans as set forth in Section 3.1.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the application of Net Disposition Proceeds or Net Casualty Proceeds by any Foreign Subsidiary to repay the Loans as required by this clause would result in a materially increased Tax liability for the Company (as reasonably
determined by the Company in consultation with the Administrative Agent), such Foreign Subsidiary shall not be required to apply such Net Disposition Proceeds or such Net Casualty Proceeds to prepay the Loans.”
|
(f) Section 6.13 of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be amended by adding the following sentence at the end of the section: |

|
(h) Section 7.1.1.(j) of the Existing Credit Agreement shall hereby be amended by replacing the period at the end of the clause with “; and” |
|
(i) Section 7.1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement shall hereby be amended by adding a clause (k) that shall read: |
“(k) promptly notify the Agents of any change in the information provided in the Beneficial Ownership Certification that would result in a change to the list of beneficial owners identified in parts (c) or (d) of such certification.”
|
(j) Section 7.2.8(h) of the Existing Credit Agreement shall hereby be amended by removing the word “and”. |
|
(k) Section 7.2.8(i) of the Existing Credit Agreement shall hereby be amended by replacing the period at the end of the clause with “; and”. |
|
(l) Section 7.2.8 of the Existing Credit Agreement shall hereby be amended by adding a clause (j) that shall read: |

|
(n) Article X of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended by adding a new Section 10.27 (Acknowledgement and Consent Regarding Any Supported QFCs) after Section 10.26, which shall read as follows: |
. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and, each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States). In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.”
The effectiveness of this Amendment is subject to the satisfaction (or written waiver) of the following conditions (the date of satisfaction of such conditions being referred to herein as the “Third Amendment Effective Date”):
|
