Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 13, 2017 (the “Closing Date”), Installed Building Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), as borrower, entered into a term loan credit agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, Royal Bank of Canada as term administrative agent and RBC Capital Markets, UBS Securities LLC and Jefferies Finance LLC as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners. The Term Loan Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, provides for a new seven-year $300,000,000 term loan facility (the “Term Loan”).

On the Closing Date, the Company, as borrower, also entered into an asset-based lending credit agreement (the “ABL Credit Agreement” and together with the Term Loan Agreement, the “Senior Secured Credit Agreements”) with the subsidiary guarantors from time to time party thereto, the financial institutions from time to time party thereto, and SunTrust Bank, as issuing bank, swing bank and administrative agent, with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, Inc. as left lead arranger and bookrunner. The ABL Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of up to approximately $100,000,000 and up to $50,000,000 for the issuance of letters of credit (the “ABL Revolver”), which may be reduced or increased pursuant to the ABL Credit Agreement. The borrowing base for the ABL Revolver, which determines availability under the facility, is based on a percentage of the value of certain of assets comprising the ABL Priority Collateral (as defined below).

Proceeds from the Senior Secured Credit Facilities were used to repay in full all amounts outstanding under the Credit and Security Agreement, dated February 29, 2016 (the “Credit and Security Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as joint lead arranger, sole book runner, administrative agent, swing line lender and issuing lender. The Company also intends to use the Senior Secured Credit Facilities to fund ongoing operating and working capital needs and other general corporate purposes, and for certain fees and expenses associated with the closing of the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

Maturity, Amortization and Prepayment

The Term Loan amortizes in quarterly principal payments of $750,000 starting on September 30, 2017, with any remaining unpaid balances due on April 15, 2024, which is the maturity date. Loans incurred under the ABL Revolver will have a final maturity of April 13, 2022.

Subject to certain exceptions, the Term Loan will be subject to mandatory pre-payments equal to (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds from issuances or incurrence of debt by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries (other than with respect to certain permitted indebtedness); (ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds from certain sales or dispositions of assets by the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries in excess of a certain amount and subject to customary reinvestment provisions and certain other expenses; and (iii) 50% (with step-downs to 25% and 0% based upon achievement of specified net leverage ratios) of excess cash flow of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries in excess of $5,000,000, subject to customary exceptions and limitations.

Security and Guarantees

All of the obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will be guaranteed by all of the existing and future restricted subsidiaries of the Company (the “Guarantors”).

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, and the guarantees of those obligations, will be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the guarantors subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, including (i) with respect to the Term Loan, a first-priority security interest in such assets that constitute Term Loan Priority Collateral and a second-priority security interest in such assets that constitute ABL Priority Collateral and (ii) with respect to the ABL Revolver, a first-priority security interest in such assets that constitute ABL Priority Collateral and a second-priority security interest in such assets that constitute Term Loan Priority Collateral.

“ABL Priority Collateral” includes substantially all presently owned and after-acquired accounts, inventory, rights of an unpaid vendor with respect to inventory, deposit accounts, commodity accounts, securities accounts and lock boxes, investment property, cash and cash equivalents, and instruments and chattel paper and general intangibles, books and records, supporting obligations and documents and related letters of credit, commercial tort claims or other claims related to and proceeds of each of the foregoing.

“Term Loan Priority Collateral” includes all assets that are not ABL Priority Collateral.

Interest Rates

Loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities will bear interest based on, at the Company’s election, either the base rate or the Eurodollar rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin (the “Applicable Margin”). The Applicable Margin in respect of


loans under (i) the Term Loan Agreement will be (A) 3.00% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans and (B) 2.00% in the case of base rate loans, and (ii) the ABL Facility will be (A) 1.25%, 1.50% or 1.75% in the case of Eurodollar rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Facility) and (B) 0.25%, 0.50% or 0.75% in the case of base rate loans (based on a measure of availability under the ABL Facility).

In addition, the Company will pay a closing fee of 1.25% of the Term Loan amount and customary commitment fees and letter of credit fees under the ABL Credit Agreement. The commitment fees will vary based upon a measure of the Company’s utilization under the ABL Revolver.

Covenants

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities each contain a number of customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and the Guarantors to: incur indebtedness; incur liens; engage in mergers or other fundamental changes; sell certain property or assets; pay dividends or other distributions; make acquisitions, investments, guarantees, loans and advances; prepay certain indebtedness; change the nature of their business; engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and incur restrictions on contractual obligations limiting interactions between the Company and its subsidiaries or limit actions in relation to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

The ABL Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant requiring the satisfaction of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.00 to 1.00 in the event that the Company does not meet a minimum measure of availability under the ABL Revolver.

Events of Default

The Senior Secured Credit Agreements contains customary events of default, subject to certain grace periods, thresholds and materiality qualifiers. Such events of default include, without limitation: non-payment of obligations; the material inaccuracy of any representations or warranties; failure to perform or observe covenants; a default related to other material debt that could result in the acceleration of that debt; certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency; judgments for the payment of money in excess of $50,000,000 in the aggregate that remains unpaid or unstayed and undischarged for a period of 60 consecutive days; and a change of control of the Company. The occurrence and continuance of an event of default could result in, among other things, acceleration of amounts owing under the Senior Secured Credit Agreements and termination of the Senior Secured Credit Agreements.

Under the Term Loan Agreement, if upon the occurrence and during the continuance of certain events of default, any principal of or interest on any loan under the Term Loan Agreement or any fee or other amount payable by the Company is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount will bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any loan under the Term Loan Agreement, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such loan, or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% per annum plus interest rate for base rate loans as described above.

Under the ABL Credit Agreement, during an event of default, interest on the outstanding and overdue obligations arising under the ABL Credit Agreement and the related loan documents may, at the administrative agent’s election, and shall, at the request of the Majority Lenders (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement), accrue at a simple per annum interest rate equal to, with respect to all outstanding obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement, the sum of (i) the applicable interest rate basis, if any, with respect to the applicable obligation, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin for such interest rate basis, plus (iii) 2.00% (the “ABL Default Rate”); provided, however, that the ABL Default Rate will automatically deemed to be invoked at all times with respect to overdue obligations under the ABL Credit Agreement and the related loan documents that have been accelerated or deemed accelerated under the ABL Credit Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term Lender agrees to make Initial Term Loans to the Borrower on the Effective Date denominated in dollars in a principal amount not exceeding such Term Lender’s Term Commitment. Amounts repaid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.02 Loans and Borrowings.

(a) Each Loan 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 respective Commitments of the applicable Class. 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 hereby.

(b) Subject to Section 2.14, each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that 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.

(c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum; provided that a Eurodollar Borrowing that results from a continuation of an outstanding Eurodollar Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to such outstanding Borrowing. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum. Borrowings of more than one Type and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of six Eurodollar Borrowings outstanding.

SECTION 2.03 Requests for Borrowings.

To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Term Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing (or, in the case of any Eurodollar Borrowing to be made on the Effective Date, one (1) Business Day) or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Term Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request signed by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit Q. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information:

(i) specifying the Class of the requested Borrowing;

(iii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of Section 2.06.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified as to any Borrowing, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Term Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class 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 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.05 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) 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 Applicable Account of the Term Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The Term Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Term Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Term Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Term Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance on such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Term Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender agrees to pay to the Term Administrative Agent an amount equal to such share on demand of the Term Administrative Agent. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon demand of the Term Administrative Agent therefor, the Term Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower agrees to pay such corresponding amount to the Term Administrative Agent forthwith on demand. If such Lender pays such amount to the Term Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. The Term Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover from such Lender or from the Borrower interest on such corresponding amount, 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 Term Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Term Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.13.

(c) The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Term Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 9.03(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan, to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 9.03(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan, to purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 9.03(c).

Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission to the Term Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower.

Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be due and payable by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

If the Auction Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries by the Acceptance Date, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers.

(3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.11(a)(ii)(D). If the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered

 

68

Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer with a Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required pro-rata reduction pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries will prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this subsection (D) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate principal amount and of the tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the principal amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro-rata among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Auction Agent (in consultation with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Auction Agent shall promptly notify (I) the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Term Lender who made a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the tranches to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (III) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate principal amount and the tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (IV) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Auction Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to such Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to such Borrower shall be due and payable by such Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with subsection (F) below (subject to subsection (J) below).

(E) In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Auction Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of reasonable and customary fees and expenses from the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in connection therewith.

69


the relevant tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis across such installments. The Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.11(a) (ii) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate principal amount of the tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment.

(G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent with the provisions in this Section 2.11(a)(ii), established by the Auction Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries.

(H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.11(a)(ii), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Auction Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Auction Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.

(I) Each of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that the Auction Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.11(a)(ii) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Auction Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Auction Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate.

(J) The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall have the right, by written notice to the Auction Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, Discount Range Prepayment Response Date or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, as applicable (and if such offer is revoked pursuant to the preceding clauses, any failure by such Borrower to make any prepayment to a Term Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.11(a)(ii) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 7.01 or otherwise).

(b) [Reserved].

(c) In the event and on each occasion that any Net Proceeds are received by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in respect of any Prepayment Event, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days after such Net Proceeds are received (or, in the case of a Prepayment Event described in clause (b) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event,” on the date of such Prepayment Event), prepay Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the amount of

 

70


such Net Proceeds; provided that, in the case of any event described in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Prepayment Event”, if the Borrower or any of the Restricted Subsidiaries invest (or commit to invest) the Net Proceeds from such event (or a portion thereof) within 12 months after receipt of such Net Proceeds in the business of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries (including any acquisitions permitted under Section 6.04), then no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this paragraph in respect of such Net Proceeds in respect of such event (or the applicable portion of such Net Proceeds, if applicable) except to the extent of any such Net Proceeds therefrom that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested) by the end of such 12-month period (or if committed to be so invested within such 12-month period, have not been so invested within 18 months after receipt thereof), at which time a prepayment shall be required in an amount equal to such Net Proceeds that have not been so invested (or committed to be invested); provided further that the Borrower may use a portion of such Net Proceeds to prepay or repurchase any other Indebtedness that is secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Loans to the extent such other Indebtedness and the Liens securing the same are permitted hereunder and the documentation governing such other Indebtedness requires such a prepayment or repurchase thereof with the proceeds of such Prepayment Event, in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (x) the amount of such Net Proceeds and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such other Indebtedness and the denominator of which is the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Term Loans and such other Indebtedness.

(d) Following the end of each fiscal year of the Borrower, commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2018, the Borrower shall prepay Term Loans in an aggregate amount equal to the ECF Percentage of Excess Cash Flow for such fiscal year in excess of $5,000,000; provided that such amount shall, at the option of the Borrower, be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such fiscal year by the aggregate amount of prepayments and repurchases of (i) Term Loans made pursuant to Section 2.11(a) or otherwise in a manner not prohibited by Section 9.04(g) and (ii) other Consolidated Senior Secured Indebtedness, in each case during such fiscal year, subject to the immediately succeeding clause (w), or after such fiscal year and prior to the 90th day after the end of such fiscal year; provided further that (w) any such voluntary prepayments that have not been applied to reduce the payments which may be due from time to time pursuant to this Section 2.11(d) shall be carried over to subsequent periods, and may reduce the payments due from time to time pursuant to this Section 2.11(d) during such subsequent periods, until such time as such voluntary prepayments reduce such payments which may be due from time to time, (x) such reduction as a result of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(ii) or Section 9.04(g) shall be limited to the actual amount of such cash prepayment, (y) in the case of the prepayment of any revolving commitments, there is a corresponding permanent reduction in commitments and (z) such reduction shall exclude all such prepayments funded with the proceeds of other long-term Indebtedness). Each prepayment pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on or before the date that is ten (10) days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.01 with respect to the fiscal year for which Excess Cash Flow is being calculated.

(e) Prior to any optional prepayment of Borrowings pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i), the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (f) of this Section 2.11. In the event of any mandatory prepayment of Borrowings made at a time when Borrowings of more than one Class remain outstanding, the Borrower shall select Borrowings to be prepaid so that the aggregate amount of such prepayment is allocated between Borrowings (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing Amendment for any Class of Other Term Loans, the Borrowings of such Class) pro rata based on the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Borrowings of each such Class; provided that any Term Lender (and, to the extent provided in the Refinancing Amendment or Loan Modification Agreement for any Class of Other Term Loans, any Lender that holds Other Term Loans of such Class) may elect, by notice to the Term Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) at least two (2) Business Days prior to the prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Term Loans or Other Term

Loans of any such Class pursuant to this Section 2.11 (other than an optional prepayment pursuant to paragraph (a)(i) of this Section 2.11 or a mandatory prepayment as a result of the Prepayment Event set forth in clause (b) of the definition thereof, which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the prepayment that would have been applied to prepay Term Loans or Other Term Loans of any such Class but was so declined (and not used pursuant to the immediately following sentence) shall be retained by the Borrower (such amounts, “Retained Declined Proceeds”). An amount equal to any portion of a mandatory prepayment of Borrowings that is declined by the Lenders under this Section 2.11(e) may, to the extent not prohibited hereunder or under the documentation governing the Permitted First Priority Refinancing Debt or ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, be applied by the Borrower to prepay (at the Borrower’s election) Permitted Second Priority Refinancing Debt. Optional prepayments of Borrowings shall be allocated among the Classes of Borrowings as directed by the Borrower. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding provisions of this paragraph of the Type of Borrowing of any Class, the Term Administrative Agent shall make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage costs owing under Section 2.16 and shall be applied in direct order of maturity; provided that, in connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d), such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurodollar Loans.

(f) The Borrower shall notify the Term Administrative Agent of any prepayment hereunder by delivery of a Prepayment Notice in writing, (i) in the case of prepayment of a Eurodollar 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, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that a notice of optional prepayment may state that such notice is conditional upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of the proceeds from the issuance of other Indebtedness or the occurrence of some other identifiable event or condition, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Term Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Term Administrative 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 an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13, and subject to Section 2.11(a)(i), shall be without premium or penalty. At the Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.11, such prepayment shall not be applied to any Term Loan of a Defaulting Lender (under any of subclauses (a), (b) or (c) of the definition of “Defaulting Lender”) and shall be allocated ratably among the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders.

(g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of Section 2.11(c) or (d), (A) to the extent that any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event by or Excess Cash Flow of a Foreign Subsidiary of the Borrower giving rise to a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) (a “Foreign Prepayment Event”) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the Borrower, the portion of such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or (d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary, and once the Borrower has determined in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, then the amount of such Net

 

72


Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved if such amounts were repatriated) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d), as applicable, (B) to the extent that and for so long as the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the amount of Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account as soon as practicable in determining the amount to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary; provided that when the Borrower determines in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would no longer have a material adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against if such amounts were repatriated) to the repayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as applicable, and (C) to the extent that and for so long as the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Foreign Prepayment Event or Excess Cash Flow would give rise to a risk of liability for the directors of such Subsidiary, the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be taken into account in determining the amount to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.11(c) or Section 2.11(d), as the case may be, and such amounts may be retained by such Subsidiary.

SECTION 2.12 Fees.

(a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Term Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay on the Effective Date to each Term Lender party to this Agreement as a Term Lender on the Effective Date, as fee compensation for the funding of such Term Lender’s Term Loan, a closing fee in an amount equal to 1.00% of the stated principal amount of such Term Lender’s Term Loan. Such fees shall be payable to each Lender out of the proceeds of such Term Lender’s Term Loan as and when funded on the Effective Date and shall be treated (and reported) by the Borrower and Term Lenders as a reduction in issue price of the Term Loans for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes. Such closing fee will be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Effective Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to Section 2.22, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any amounts to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.12.

SECTION 2.13 Interest.

(a) The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) The Loans comprising each Eurodollar 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, if upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Specified Event of Default any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a

 

73


rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13; provided that no amount shall be payable pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender; provided, further that no amounts shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) on any overdue amount or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.

(d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.13 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 and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar 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 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 or Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Term Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest.

If at least two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Borrowing:

(a) the Term Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period; or

(b) the Term Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted LIBO Rate 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 (in each case with respect to the Loans impacted by this clause (b) or clause (a) above, “Impacted Loans”);

(c) the Term Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone or facsimile as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Term Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Eurodollar Borrowing shall be ineffective and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing, then such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing; provided, however, that, in each case, the Borrower may revoke any Borrowing Request that is pending when such notice is received.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Term Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a) of this Section 2.14 and/or is advised by the Required Lenders of their determination in accordance with clause (b) of this Section 2.14 and the Borrower shall so request, the Term Administrative Agent, the Required Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend the definition of “LIBO Rate” and other applicable provisions to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change; provided that, until so amended, such Impacted Loans will be handled as otherwise provided pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.14.

 

74


SECTION 2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

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

(ii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Eurodollar Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from time to time upon request of such Lender, the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased costs actually incurred or reduction actually suffered.

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

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company in reasonable detail, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 delivered to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’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.

SECTION 2.16 Break Funding Payments.

 

In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar 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 Eurodollar Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to

 

75


borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(f) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment of any Eurodollar 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 2.19 or Section 9.02(c), then, in any such event, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by any Lender affected by any such event (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense (excluding loss of profit) actually incurred by it as a result of such event. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under this Section 2.16, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurodollar Loan made by it at the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing in the applicable interbank eurodollar market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurodollar Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth in reasonable detail any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 and the reasons therefor delivered to the Borrower shall be prima facie evidence of such amounts. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 15 days after receipt of such demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 2.16 will not apply to losses, costs or expenses resulting from Taxes, as to which Section 2.17 shall govern. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.16 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances under comparable provisions of other credit agreements.

SECTION 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If the applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions have been made (including such deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.17), each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Term Administrative Agent for its own account, the Term Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

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

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Term Administrative Agent and each Lender within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and any Other Taxes paid by the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any reasonable expenses 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 setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Term Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

76


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

(e) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent, provide Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent with any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law, or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 2.17(e)), deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding tax or are subject to Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower, the Term Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) Each Lender that is a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ii) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates, substantially in the form of Exhibit N (any such certificate a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms),

 

77


(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.17 if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Term Administrative 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 Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the Term Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in a reasonable challenge of such Taxes if so requested by the Borrower, provided that (a) the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its reasonable discretion that it would not be subject to any unreimbursed third party cost or expense or otherwise be prejudiced by cooperating in such challenge, (b) the Borrower pays all related expenses of the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable and (c) the Borrower indemnifies the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for any liabilities or other costs incurred by such party in connection with such challenge. If the Term Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);

 

78


provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.17(f) shall not be construed to require the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other person.

(g) The agreements in this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Term Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(h) For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “applicable Requirements of Law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Setoffs.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it under any Loan Document (whether of principal, interest or fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 2:00 p.m., New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, recoupment or setoff. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Term Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account as may be specified by the Term Administrative Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Term Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. Except as otherwise provided herein, if any payment under any Loan Document 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. If any payment on a Eurodollar Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate for the period of such extension. All payments or prepayments of any Loan shall be made in dollars, all payments of accrued interest payable on a Loan shall be made in dollars, and all other payments under each Loan Document shall be made in dollars.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Term Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

 

79


(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Term Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Term Loans and accrued interest thereon 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 Term Loans of other Lenders 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 Term Loans; 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 (A) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant or (C) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Rate in respect of Loans of Lenders that have consented to any such extension. 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’s rights of setoff 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 Term Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Term Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Term Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, 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 Term Administrative 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 Term Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Term Administrative 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 Section 2.06(a) or Section 2.06(b), Section 2.18(d) or Section 9.03(c), then the Term Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and in the order determined by the Term Administrative Agent (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Term Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and to be applied to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section.

SECTION 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or any event gives rise to the operation of Section 2.23, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder affected by such event, or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment

and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17 or mitigate the applicability of Section 2.23, as the case may be, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense reasonably deemed by such Lender to be material and would not be inconsistent with the internal policies of, or otherwise be disadvantageous in any material economic, legal or regulatory respect to, such Lender.

(b) If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15 or gives notice under Section 2.23, (ii) the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or to any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17 or (iii) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Term Administrative Agent, require such Lender 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 and the other Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (A) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Term Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consents, in each case, shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (B) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued but unpaid interest thereon, accrued but unpaid 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), (C) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid (unless waived) to the Term Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b)(ii) and (D) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15, or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17 or a notice given under Section 2.23, such assignment will result in a material reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender under paragraph (a) above), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Term Administrative Agent and the assignee and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto.

SECTION 2.20 Incremental Credit Extensions.

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time on one or more occasions after the Effective Date, by written notice delivered to the Term Administrative Agent request (i) one or more additional Classes of term loans (each, an “Incremental Term Facility”), (ii) one or more additional term loans of the same Class of any existing Class of term loans (each, an “Incremental Term Increase”), (iii) one or more tranches of cash-flow revolving credit facilities (the first of such tranches, the “Initial Incremental Revolving Facility” and, together with each such tranche thereafter, the “Incremental Revolving Facilities”) or (iv) one or more increases in the amount of any existing Class of Incremental Revolving Loans (each, an “Incremental Revolving Increase”, and together with any Incremental Term Facility, Incremental Term Increase and Incremental Revolving Facilities, the “Incremental Facilities”); provided that, after giving effect to any Incremental Facility Amendment referred to below and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan or Incremental Revolving Loan is made or effected, (x) no Event of Default (except, in the case of the incurrence or provision of any Incremental Facility in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, for which a Specified Event of Default shall be the standard) shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) all representations and warranties in Article III shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the effective date of such Incremental Facility (except, in the case of the incurrence or provision of any

 

81


Incremental Facility in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other Investment not prohibited by the terms of this Agreement, for which the Specified Representations shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date). Notwithstanding anything to contrary herein, the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Facilities that can be incurred at any time shall not exceed the Incremental Cap at such time. Each Incremental Facility shall be in a minimum principal amount of $10,000,000 and integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof if such Incremental Facilities are denominated in dollars (unless the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent otherwise agree); provided that such amount may be less than $10,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Facilities set forth above.

(b) The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall (i) rank equal or junior in right of payment with the Term Loans, (ii) if secured, be secured only by the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and (iii) only be guaranteed by the Loan Parties, (b) shall not mature earlier than the Term Maturity Date, (c) shall not have a shorter Weighted Average Life to Maturity than the remaining Term Loans, (d) shall have a maturity date (subject to clause (b)), an amortization schedule (subject to clause (c)), interest rates (including through fixed interest rates), “most favored nation” provisions, interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts, financial covenants, prepayment terms and premiums and other terms and conditions as determined by the Borrower and the Additional Term Lenders thereunder; provided that, for any Incremental Term Loans that rank equal in right of payment with the Term Loans and are secured on a pari passu basis with the Collateral securing the Loan Document Obligations incurred prior to the date that is twelve months after the Effective Date, in the event that the Effective Yield for any such Incremental Term Loans is greater than the Effective Yield for the Term Loans by more than 0.50% per annum, then the Effective Yield for the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Effective Yield for the Term Loans is equal to the Effective Yield for such Incremental Term Loans minus 0.50% per annum (provided that the “LIBOR floor” applicable to the outstanding Term Loans shall be increased to an amount not to exceed the “LIBOR floor” applicable to such Incremental Term Loans prior to any increase in the Applicable Rate applicable to such Term Loans then outstanding); and (e) may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Term Loans (including currency denomination); provided that (x) to the extent the terms and documentation with respect to any Incremental Facility are not consistent with the existing Term Loans (except with respect to matters contemplated by clauses (b), (c) and (d) above) the terms, conditions and documentation of any such Incremental Facility shall be reasonably acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent. Any Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Increase shall be pursuant to documentation as determined by the Borrower and the Additional Term Lenders providing such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Term Increase, subject to the restrictions and exceptions set forth above.

(c) The Incremental Revolving Facilities shall be on terms and documentation as determined by the Borrower and the lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Facility; provided that any Incremental Revolving Facility (a) shall (i) rank equal or junior in right of payment with the Term Loans, (ii) if secured, be secured only by the Collateral securing the Secured Obligations and (iii) only be guaranteed by the Loan Parties, (b) shall not provide for scheduled amortization or mandatory commitment reductions prior to the final scheduled maturity date of the Term Loans, (c) may provide for the ability to participate with respect to borrowings and, subject to exceptions set forth in the Loan Documents, repayments on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) with any other existing cash-flow revolving facility tranche, (d) may not have a final scheduled maturity date earlier than the Term Loans, (e) may provide for the ability to permanently repay and terminate the Incremental Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis, less than a pro rata basis, or greater than a pro rata basis with any existing cash-flow revolving facility tranche and (f) may otherwise have terms and conditions different from those of the Term Loans (including currency denomination); provided that (x) to the extent the terms and documentation with respect to any Incremental Revolving Facility are not consistent with

 

82


the Term Loans, the terms, conditions and documentation of any such Incremental Revolving Facility shall be reasonably acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent. Any Incremental Revolving Facility or Incremental Revolving Increase shall be pursuant to documentation as determined by the Borrower and the Additional Revolving Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Facility or Incremental Revolving Increase, subject to the restrictions and exceptions set forth above.

(d) The Incremental Revolving Increase shall be treated the same as the Class of Incremental Revolving Loans being increased (including with respect to maturity date thereof) and shall be considered to be part of the Class of Incremental Revolving Loans being increased (it being understood that, if required to consummate an Incremental Revolving Increase, the pricing, interest rate margins, “most favored nation” provisions, rate floors and undrawn commitment fees on the Class of Incremental Revolving Loans being increased may be increased and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Incremental Revolving Increase (without any requirement to pay such fees to any existing Incremental Revolving Lenders)). Any Incremental Revolving Increase shall be on the same terms and pursuant to the same documentation applicable to the Incremental Revolving Loans (excluding upfront fees and customary arranger fees).

(e) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.20 shall set forth the requested amount of the relevant Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans.

(f) Commitments in respect of any Incremental Term Increase or Incremental Revolving Increase shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Term Lender, if any, and the Term Administrative Agent. An Incremental Facility may be provided, subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower (not to be unreasonably withheld), by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender shall have the right to participate in any Incremental Facility or, unless it agrees, be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans) or by any Additional Term Lender or Additional Revolving Lender. Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Loans shall be a “Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Incremental Facility Amendment may, subject to Section 2.20(b), without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of the Term Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.20. The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment and the occurrence of any credit event (including the making (but not the conversion or continuation) of a Loan) pursuant to such Incremental Facility Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the parties thereto shall agree and as required by this Section 2.20. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.20 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.21 Refinancing Amendments.

(a) At any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower may obtain, from any Lender or any Additional Term Lender, Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) in the form of Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will be unsecured or will rank pari passu or junior in right of payment and of

 

83


security with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) will have such pricing and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders thereof, and (iii) the Net Proceeds of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of outstanding Term Loans being so refinanced. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of the conditions as agreed between the lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness and the Borrower and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Term Administrative Agent, receipt by the Term Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Term Administrative Agent). Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred under this Section 2.21 shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (x) not less than $10,000,000 in the case of Other Term Loans and (y) an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (in each case unless the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent otherwise agree). The Term Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Term Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section.

(b) This Section 2.21 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.22 Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 9.02.

(ii) Reallocation of Payments. Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.11(f), any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Term Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Term Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Term Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Term Administrative Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Term Administrative Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Loan Party as a

 

84


result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Loan Party against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans and such Lender is a Defaulting Lender under clause (a) of the definition thereof, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied pursuant to this Section 2.22(a)(ii).

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent agree in writing in their sole discretion that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Term Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such actions as the Term Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary, whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided further that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.23 Illegality.

If any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Term Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Eurodollar Loans denominated in dollars or to convert ABR Loans denominated in dollars to Eurodollar Loans shall be suspended, and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining ABR Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, the interest rate on such ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Term Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the Term Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon three Business Days’ notice from such Lender (with a copy to the Term Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all Eurodollar Loans denominated in dollars of such Lender to ABR Loans (the interest rate on which ABR Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Term Administrative Agent without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component of the Alternate Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurodollar Loans, and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Term Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Alternate Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Adjusted LIBO Rate component thereof until the Term Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate. Each Lender agrees to notify the Term Administrative Agent and the Borrower in writing promptly upon becoming aware that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Adjusted LIBO Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

 

85


SECTION 2.24 Loan Modification Offers.

(a) At any time after the Effective Date, the Borrower may on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Term Administrative Agent, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to effect one or more Permitted Amendments relating to such Affected Class pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Term Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower (including mechanics to permit cashless rollovers and exchanges by Lenders). 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. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and 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 Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Lender’s acceptance has been made.

(b) A Permitted Amendment shall be effected pursuant to a Loan Modification Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower, each applicable Accepting Lender and the Term Administrative Agent; provided that no Permitted Amendment shall become effective unless the Borrower shall have delivered to the Term Administrative Agent such legal opinions, board resolutions, secretary’s certificates, officer’s certificates and other documents as shall be reasonably requested by the Term Administrative Agent in connection therewith. The Term Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Each Loan Modification Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Term Administrative Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section 2.24, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or Commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new “Class” of loans and/or commitments hereunder.

(c) If, in connection with any proposed Loan Modification Offer, any Lender declines to consent to such Loan Modification Offer on the terms and by the deadline set forth in such Loan Modification Offer (each such Lender, a “Non-Accepting Lender”) then the Borrower may, on notice to the Term Administrative Agent and the Non-Accepting Lender, (i) replace such Non-Accepting Lender in whole or in part by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04) all or any part of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of the Loans and Commitments of the Affected Class to one or more Eligible Assignees (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that neither the Term Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that (a) the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Loans and/or Commitments on the terms set forth in the applicable Permitted Amendment, (b) such Non-Accepting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of the Loans of the Affected Class assigned by it pursuant to this Section 2.24(c), accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts (including any amounts under Section 2.11(a)(i)) payable to it hereunder from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) and (c) unless waived, the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Term Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, this Section 2.24 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.18 or Section 9.02 to the contrary.

To the knowledge of the Borrower, no Intellectual Property used by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in the operation of its business as currently conducted infringes upon the Intellectual Property of any Person except for such infringements that would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 3.14 Solvency.

Immediately after the consummation of each of the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date, after taking into account all applicable rights of indemnity and contribution, (a) the sum of the debt (including contingent liabilities) of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, does not exceed the present fair saleable value of the present assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, (b) the capital of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not unreasonably small in relation to their business as contemplated on the date hereof, (c) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, have not incurred and do not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, debts including current obligations, beyond their ability to pay such debts as they become due (whether at maturity or otherwise) and (d) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are “solvent” within the meaning given to that term and similar terms under applicable laws relating to fraudulent transfers and conveyances. For purposes of this Section 3.14, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in the light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that would reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the criteria for accrual pursuant to Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 5).

No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used, directly or indirectly, to purchase or carry any margin stock or to refinance any Indebtedness originally incurred for such purpose, or for any other purpose that entails a violation (including on the part of any Lender) of the provisions of Regulations U or X of the Board of Governors.

No part of the proceeds of the Loans will be used by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the FCPA

Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938 or any other applicable laws dealing with wage and hour matters. As of the Effective Date, the consummation of the Transactions will not give rise to any right of termination or right of renegotiation on the part of any union under any collective bargaining agreement to which Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary is bound.

SECTION 3.21 Security Documents.

The Term Collateral Agreement and each other Term Security Document (other than any Mortgages) executed and delivered by a Loan Party is effective to create in favor of the Term Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable Debtor Relief Laws and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law). Subject to the last paragraph of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and except as otherwise provided under applicable Requirements of Law (including the UCC), in the case of (i) the Pledged Equity Interests described in the Term Collateral Agreement, when any stock certificates representing such Pledged Equity Interests (and constituting “certificated securities” within the meaning of the UCC) are delivered to the Term Administrative Agent, (ii) Collateral with respect to which a security interest may be perfected only by possession or control, upon the taking of possession or control by the Term Administrative Agent of such Collateral, and (iii) the other personal property Collateral described in the Security Documents, when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the appropriate filing offices, appropriate assignments or notices are filed in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, and such other filings as are specified by the Term Collateral Agreement have been completed, the Lien on the Collateral created by the Term Collateral Agreement shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral, as security for the Secured Obligations, in each case prior to the Liens of any other Person (except Liens permitted under Section 6.02).

96


Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers 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 designated “Public Side Information”; provided that the Borrower’s failure to comply with this sentence shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default under this Agreement or the Loan Documents.

Each Loan Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, unless the Borrower notifies the Term Administrative Agent in advance, all financial statements and certificates furnished pursuant to Sections 5.01(a), (b), (c) and (d) above are hereby deemed to be suitable for distribution, and to be made available, to all Lenders and may be treated by the Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders as not containing any Material Non-Public Information.

ARTICLE VIII

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 8.01 Appointment and Authority.

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints Royal Bank to act on its behalf as the Term Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Term Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Term Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Term Administrative Agent and the Term Collateral Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b) The Term Administrative Agent shall also act as the “Term Collateral Agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Term Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Secured Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Term Collateral Agent and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Term Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 8.05 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Term Security Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Term Administrative Agent, shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article VIII and Article IX (including Section 9.03 as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.

SECTION 8.02 Rights as a Lender.

The Person serving as the Term Administrative 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 Term Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Term Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, own securities of, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Term Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

The Term Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Term Administrative Agent:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

 

126


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

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Term Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Term Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.02 and in the last paragraph of Section 7.01) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment; provided that the Term Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default is given to the Term Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender; and

(e) 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Term Security Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Term Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.04 Reliance by Administrative Agent.

The Term Administrative 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 (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Term Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Term Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Term Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Term Administrative 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.

 

127


SECTION 8.05 Delegation of Duties.

The Term Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Term Administrative Agent. The Term Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Term Administrative 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 Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Term Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Term Administrative Agent may resign upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless a Specified Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Term Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then such resignation shall nevertheless be effective and the retiring Term Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Term Administrative Agent, which shall be an Approved Bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such Approved Bank (the date upon which the retiring Term Administrative Agent is replaced, the “Resignation Effective Date”); provided that if the Term Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that no qualifying Person accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice.

If the Person serving as Term Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders and the Borrower may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to such Person remove such Person as Term Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Term Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except (i) that in the case of any collateral security held by the Term Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Term Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Term Administrative Agent is appointed and (ii) with respect to any outstanding payment obligations) and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Term Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Term Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Term Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Term Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Term Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Term Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as set forth in this Section. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Term Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed

 

128


between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative 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 the retiring or removed Term Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.07 Non-Reliance on Term Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Term Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Term Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement and funding its Loans on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption, Incremental Facility Amendment or Refinancing Amendment pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Term Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

No Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Term Administrative Agent and Term Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof. In the event of a foreclosure by the Term Administrative Agent or Term Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Term Administrative Agent, the Term Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and the Term Administrative Agent or Term Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) 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 public sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Term Administrative Agent or Term Collateral Agent on behalf of the Lenders at such sale or other disposition. Each Lender, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions.

SECTION 8.08 No Other Duties, Etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, neither any Joint Lead Arrangers nor any person named on the cover page hereof as a joint bookrunner shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Term Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder.

 

129


SECTION 8.09 Term Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

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

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Secured Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Term Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Term Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Term Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Term Administrative Agent and, if the Term Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Term Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Term Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Term Administrative Agent under Sections 2.12 and 9.03.

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

SECTION 8.10 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies; Enforcement.

No failure by any Lender or the Term Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Term Administrative Agent in accordance with Article VII for the benefit of all the Lenders; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (a) the Term Administrative Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Administrative Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (b) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 (subject to the terms of Section 2.18), or (c) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law; and provided further that if at any time there is no Person acting as Term Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, then (i) the Required Lenders shall

 

130


have the rights otherwise ascribed to the Term Administrative Agent pursuant to Article VII and (ii) in addition to the matters set forth in clauses (b) and (c) of the preceding proviso and subject to Section 2.18, any Lender may, with the consent of the Required Lenders, enforce any rights and remedies available to it and as authorized by the Required Lenders.

SECTION 8.11 Withholding Taxes.

To the extent required by any applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in good faith by the Term Administrative Agent), the Term Administrative Agent may deduct or withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Term Administrative Agent did not properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason (including because the appropriate form was not delivered or not property executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Term Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective), such Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Term Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Term Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Loan Parties pursuant to Section 2.17 and without limiting any obligation of the Loan Parties to do so pursuant to such Section) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Term Administrative Agent as Taxes or otherwise, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses and any other out-of-pocket expenses, whether or not such Tax was correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Term Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Term Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Term Administrative Agent under this Section 8.11. The agreements in this Section 8.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Term Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations under any Loan Document.

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 ANY AGENT PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM.

132


(e) Reliance by Term Administrative Agent and Lenders. The Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify the Term Administrative Agent, each Lender and the Related Parties from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined in a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Term Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Term Administrative Agent and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

SECTION 9.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No failure or delay by the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power under this Agreement or any 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 Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and 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 this Agreement or 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 9.02, 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 shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Except as provided in Section 2.20 with respect to any Incremental Facility Amendment, Section 2.21 with respect to any Refinancing Amendment or Section 2.24 with respect to any Permitted Amendment, neither this Agreement, any Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, in the case of this Agreement, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower, the Term Administrative Agent (to the extent that such waiver, amendment or modification does not affect the rights, duties, privileges or obligations of the Term Administrative Agent under this Agreement, the Term Administrative Agent shall execute such waiver, amendment or other modification to the extent approved by the Required Lenders) and the Required Lenders or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Term Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto, in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender), (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness of principal) or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (it being understood that any change to the definition of Total Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Senior Secured

 

133


Net Leverage Ratio or in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction of interest or fees), provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay default interest pursuant to Section 2.13(c), (iii) postpone the maturity of any Loan (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute a reduction or forgiveness of principal), or the date of any scheduled amortization payment of the principal amount of any Term Loan under Section 2.10 or the applicable Refinancing Amendment, or any date for the payment of any interest or fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute an extension of any maturity date, date of any scheduled amortization payment or date for payment of interest or fees), without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, (iv) change any of the provisions of this Section 9.02 without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided that any such change which is in favor of a Class of Lenders holding Loans maturing after the maturity of other Classes of Lenders (and only takes effect after the maturity of such other Classes of Loans or Commitments) will require the written consent of the Required Lenders with respect to each Class directly and adversely affected thereby, (v) change the percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) 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 (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (vi) release all or substantially all the value of the Guarantees under the Term Guarantee Agreement (except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents) without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), (vii) release all or substantially all the Collateral from the Liens of the Term Security Documents, without the written consent of each Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents or (viii) amend or modify any provisions of Section 2.18(a) or Section 7.02 hereof or Section 4.02 of the Term Collateral Agreement and/or the similar provisions in the other Term Security Documents, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby; provided further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Term Administrative Agent without the prior written consent of the Term Administrative Agent, (B) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, defect or inconsistency and (C) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders stating that would be required to consent thereto under this Section 9.02 if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Term Administrative Agent, the Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Lenders prior to such inclusion and (b) guarantees, Term Security Documents and related documents in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Term Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, amended and waived with the consent of the Term Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender 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, (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (iv) to integrate any Incremental Facility or Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness in a manner consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

134


(c) In connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of all Lenders or all directly and adversely affected Lenders, if the consent of the Required Lenders (and, to the extent any Proposed Change requires the consent of Lenders holding Loans of any Class pursuant to clause (iv), (ix) or (xi) of paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02, the consent of a Majority in Interest of the outstanding Loans of such Class) to such Proposed Change is obtained, but the consent to such Proposed Change of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.02 being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender that is acting as Term Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Non-Consenting Lender and the Term Administrative Agent, (i) if no Specified Event of Default exists, permanently prepay all of the Loans of any Class owing by it to, and terminating any Commitments of, such Non-Consenting Lender or (ii) require such Non-Consenting Lender 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 Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that, with respect to this clause (ii), (a) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Term Administrative Agent to the extent such consent would be required under Section 9.04(b) for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (b) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding par principal amount of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (including pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(i)) from the Eligible Assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (c) unless waived, the Borrower or such Eligible Assignee shall have paid to the Term Administrative Agent the processing and recordation fee specified in Section 9.04(b).

(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, the Term Loans of any Lender that is at the time a Defaulting Lender shall not have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of a Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of a Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.02); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Defaulting Lender more adversely than other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 9.03 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) The Borrower shall pay, if the Effective Date occurs and the Transactions have been consummated, (i) all reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (without duplication) (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of Paul Hastings LLP and to the extent reasonably determined by the Term Administrative Agent to be necessary, one firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or

 

135

(b) Without duplication of the expense reimbursement obligations pursuant to clause (a) above, the Borrower shall indemnify the Term Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Joint Lead Arrangers, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable, documented and invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel for all Indemnitees and to the extent reasonably determined by the Term Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates to the extent arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties to the Loan Documents of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated thereby, the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, (ii) any Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threat of Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, to or from any Mortgaged Property or any other property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any other Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or their Affiliates and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or related expenses (w) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or

 

136


willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (x) resulted from a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (y) arise from disputes between or among Indemnitees (other than disputes involving claims against the Term Administrative Agent or the Joint Lead Arrangers, in each case, in their respective capacities) that do not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or (z) any settlement effected without the Borrower’s prior written consent, but if settled with the Borrower’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement in accordance with this paragraph; provided further that (1) the Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (a) such settlement includes a full and unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee and (2) to the extent of any amounts paid to an Indemnitee in respect of this Section 9.03, such Indemnitee, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees to refund and return any and all amounts paid by the Borrower to it if, pursuant to the operation of any of the foregoing clauses (w) through (z), such Indemnitee was not entitled to receipt of such amount.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 9.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (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, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Term Administrative Agent or such Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the outstanding Term Loans at such time. The obligations of the Lenders under this paragraph (c) are subject to the last sentence of Section 2.02(a) (which shall apply mutatis mutandis to the Lenders’ obligations under this paragraph (c)).

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto nor any Affiliate of any party hereto, nor any officer, director, employee, agent, controlling person, advisor or other representative of the foregoing or any successor or permitted assign of any of the foregoing shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other such Person on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages, but in any event including any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or referred to herein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith and each such Person further agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor; provided that the foregoing shall in no event limit the Borrower’s indemnification obligations under this Section 9.03.

(e) In case any proceeding is instituted involving any Indemnitee for which indemnification is to be sought hereunder by such Indemnitee, then such Indemnitee will promptly notify the Borrower of the commencement of any proceeding; provided, however, that the failure to do so will not relieve the Borrower from any liability that it may have to such Indemnitee hereunder, except to the extent that the Borrower is materially prejudiced by such failure.

 

137


(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto or an Indemnitee shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other Person for any direct or actual damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; except to the extent that such direct or actual damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties.

(g) All amounts due under this Section 9.03 shall be payable not later than ten (10) Business Days after written demand therefor; provided, however, that any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 9.03.

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 assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender and the acknowledgement of the Term Administrative Agent (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void), (ii) no assignment shall be made to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Persons who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (ii) and (iii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section 9.04. 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 9.04), the Indemnitees and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Term Administrative 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 paragraphs (b)(ii) and (f) 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 the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent (except with respect to assignments to competitors (as described in the definition of “Disqualified Lenders”) of the Borrower) not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) of (A) the Borrower; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment (w) by any Joint Lead Arranger (or its affiliate) to the extent that an assignment by such Joint Lead Arranger (or such affiliate) is made in the primary syndication to Eligible Assignees to whom the Borrower has consented or to any other Joint Lead Arranger (or its affiliate), (x) by a Term Lender to any Lender or an Affiliate of any Lender, (y) by a Term Lender to an Approved Fund or (z) if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further that no assignee contemplated by the immediately preceding proviso shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15 or Section 2.17 than the applicable assignor would have been entitled to receive with respect to the assignment made to such assignee, unless the assignment to such assignee is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent; provided further that the Borrower shall have the right to withhold its consent to any assignment if in order for such assignment to

 

138


comply with applicable law, the Borrower would be required to obtain the consent of, or make any filing or registration with, any Governmental Authority and (B) the Term Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Term Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of a Term Loan to (x) a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (y) subject to Section 9.04(f) and (g), an Affiliated Lender, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.04 to the contrary, if the Borrower has not given the Term Administrative Agent written notice of its objection to an assignment of Term Loans within five (5) Business Days after written notice of such assignment, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to such assignment.

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: (A) except in the case of an assignment to a 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 of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the trade date specified in the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment or, if no trade date is so specified, as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Term Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000 (and integral multiples thereof), unless the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent otherwise consent (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause (B) shall not be construed to prohibit assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans, (C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Term Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent or, if previously agreed with the Term Administrative Agent, manually execute and deliver to the Term Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, and, in each case, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; provided that the Term Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, may elect to waive or reduce such processing and recordation fee; provided further that any such Assignment and Assumption shall include a representation by the assignee that the assignee is not a Disqualified Lender or, to the assignee’s knowledge, an Affiliate of a Disqualified Lender (other than any bona fide debt investment fund Affiliate of a Disqualified Lender who is disqualified solely as a result of being a competitor of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries); provided further that assignments made pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or Section 9.02(c) shall not require the signature of the assigning Lender to become effective and (D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Term Administrative Agent any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) and an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain Material Non-Public Information about the Borrower, the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 9.04, 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 of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue

 

139


to be entitled to the benefits of (and subject to the obligations and limitations of) Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and to any fees payable hereunder that have accrued for such Lender’s account but have not yet been paid). 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)(i) of this Section 9.04.

(iv) The Term Administrative 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, and principal, premium, interest and fees amounts of 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 Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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. In addition, the Term Administrative Agent shall maintain on the Register information regarding the designation, and revocation of designation, of any Lender as a Defaulting Lender. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower 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 any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04, the Term Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(vi) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons (other than to a Person that is not an Eligible Assignee) (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 and 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 and (C) the Borrower, the Term Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and any other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement and any other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such

 

140


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 directly and adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(iii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject to the obligations and limitations thereof and Section 2.19, it being understood that any tax forms required by Section 2.17(e) shall be provided solely to the participating Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 9.04. 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 that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender.

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the parties hereto shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of its Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary in connection with a Tax audit or other proceeding to establish that any Loan or other obligation under the Loan Documents is in registered form for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

(iii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 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 (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Term Administrative Agent, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other “central” bank, and this Section 9.04 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) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Term Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

 

141


(f) [Reserved].

(g) Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, through (x) Dutch auctions or other offers to purchase open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with procedures of the type described in Section 2.11(a)(ii) or other customary procedures acceptable to the Term Administrative Agent and/or (y) open market purchases on a non-pro rata basis, provided that (i) any Term Loans that are so assigned will be automatically and irrevocably cancelled and the aggregate principal amount of the tranches and installments of the relevant Term Loans then outstanding shall be reduced by an amount equal to the principal amount of such Term Loans, (ii) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (iii) each Lender making such assignment to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Borrower or its Subsidiaries then may have, and later may come into possession of Material Non-Public Information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Term Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Material Non-Public Information and (3) none of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Term Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by Requirements of Law, any claims such Lender may have against the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Term Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Material Non-Public Information. Each Lender entering into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Material Non-Public Information may not be available to the Term Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment may be made or participation knowingly sold to a Disqualified Lender without the prior written consent of the Borrower; provided that, upon inquiry by any Lender to the Term Administrative Agent as to whether a specified potential assignee or prospective participant is on the list of Disqualified Lenders, the Term Administrative Agent shall be permitted to disclose to such Lender whether such specific potential assignee or prospective participant is on the list of Disqualified Lenders; provided further that inclusion on the list of Disqualified Lenders shall not apply retroactively to disqualify any persons that have previously acquired an assignment or participation in the Loan if such person was not included on the list of Disqualified Lenders at the time of such assignment or participation. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if any Lender was a Disqualified Lender at the time of the assignment of any Loans or Commitments to such Lender, following written notice from the Borrower to such Lender and the Term Administrative Agent: (1) such Lender shall promptly assign all Loans and Commitments held by such Lender to an Eligible Assignee; provided that (A) the Term Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to the Borrower, such Lender or any other Person to find such a replacement Lender, (B) the Borrower shall not have any obligation to such Disqualified Lender or any other Person to find such a replacement Lender or accept or consent to any such assignment to itself or any other Person subject to the Borrower’s consent in accordance with Section 9.04(b)(i) and (C) the assignment of such Loans and/or Commitments, as the case may be, shall be at par plus accrued and unpaid interest and fees; (2) such Lender shall not have any voting or approval rights under the Loan Documents and shall be excluded in determining whether all Lenders (or all Lenders of any Class), all affected Lenders (or all affected Lenders of any Class), a Majority in Interest of Lenders of any Class or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to this Section 9.02); provided that (x) the Commitment of any Disqualified Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification

 

142


requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender that affects any Disqualified Lender adversely and in a manner that is disproportionate to other affected Lenders shall require the consent of such Disqualified Lender; and (3) no Disqualified Lender is entitled to receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender or will be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Term Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices or Borrowings, notices or prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II.

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 any 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 Term Administrative 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 until the Termination Date. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 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 and all other amounts payable hereunder, the expiration or termination of the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

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. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Term Administrative Agent or the syndication of the Loans and Commitments 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. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Term Administrative Agent and when the Term Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.07 Severability.

Any provision of this Agreement 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 the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.07, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Term Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.

SECTION 9.08 Right of Setoff.

If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Settlement Assets except to effect Settlement Payments such Lender is obligated to make to a third party in respect of such Settlement Assets or as otherwise agreed in writing between the Borrower and such Lender) against any of and all the obligations of the Borrower then due and owing 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 are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Term Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Term Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The applicable Lender shall notify the Borrower and the Term Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 9.08. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amount set off from any Loan Party (other than the Borrower) shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Loan Party (other than the Borrower).

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Loan Document, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto 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.

SECTION 9.12 Confidentiality.

(a) Each of the Term Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (i) to its Affiliates and its and their respective directors, officers, employees, trustees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other agents and advisors and any numbering, administration or settlement service providers (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 and any failure of such Persons acting on behalf of the Term Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender to comply with this Section 9.12 shall constitute a breach of this Section 9.12 by the Term Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable), (ii) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority or self-regulatory authority, required by applicable law or by any subpoena or similar legal process or in connection with the exercise of remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the enforcement of rights hereunder; provided that (x) solely to the extent permitted by law and other than in connection with routine audits and reviews by bank accountants, regulatory and self-regulatory authorities, each Lender and the Term Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower as promptly as practicable of any such requested or required disclosure in connection with any legal or regulatory proceeding and (y) in the case of clause (ii) only, each Lender and the Term Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that such Information is kept confidential in connection with the exercise of such remedies, and provided further that in no event shall any Lender or the Term Administrative Agent be obligated or required to return any materials furnished by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower, (iii) to any other party to this Agreement, (iv) subject to an agreement containing confidentiality undertakings substantially similar to those of this Section 9.12, to (A) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement, (B) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any Swap Agreement or derivative transaction relating to any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries and its obligations under the Loan Documents or (C) any pledgee referred to in Section 9.04(d), (v) if required by any rating

agency; provided that prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall have agreed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of such Information, (vi) to service providers providing administrative and ministerial services solely in connection with the syndication and administration of the Loan Documents and the facilities (e.g., identities of parties, maturity dates, interest rates, etc.) on a confidential basis, (vii) to the extent such Information (x) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 9.12, (y) becomes available to the Term Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower or any Subsidiary, which source is not known by the recipient of such information to be subject to a confidentiality obligation or (z) is independently developed by a Joint Lead Arranger or (viii) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense. For the purposes hereof, “Information” means all information received from or on behalf of the Borrower relating to the Borrower, any other Subsidiary or their business, other than any such information that is available to the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the Effective Date, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 9.12 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such information shall be disclosed to a Disqualified Lender that constitutes a Disqualified Lender at the time of such disclosure without the Borrower’s prior written consent.

(b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION (AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a)) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING THE BORROWER, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES REGARDING THE USE OF MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

(c) ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS FURNISHED BY THE BORROWER OR THE TERM ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING, THIS AGREEMENT, WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION ABOUT THE BORROWER, THE LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE BORROWER AND THE TERM ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.

SECTION 9.14 Release of Liens and Guarantees.

(a) A Subsidiary Loan Party shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, and all security interests created by the Term Security Documents in Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Loan Party shall be automatically released, (1) upon the consummation of any transaction or designation permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (including pursuant to a permitted merger with a Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party or a designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary) or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary or (2) upon the request of the Borrower, in connection with a transaction permitted under this Agreement, as a result of which such Subsidiary Loan Party ceases to be a Wholly Owned Subsidiary; provided that, if so required by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided otherwise. Upon any sale or other transfer by any Loan Party (other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party) of any Collateral in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, or upon the effectiveness of any written consent to the release of the security interest created under any Term Security Document in any Collateral, the security interests in such Collateral created by the Term Security Documents shall be automatically released. Upon the release of the Borrower or any Subsidiary Loan Party from its Guarantee in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest in any Collateral owned by the Borrower or such Subsidiary created by the Term Security Documents shall be automatically released. Upon the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in compliance with this Agreement, the security interest created by the Term Security Documents in the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall automatically be released. Upon the Termination Date, all obligations under the Loan Documents and all security interests created by the Term Security Documents shall be automatically released. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section 9.14, the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release so long as the Borrower or applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, such certifications or documents as the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Agreement.

(b) The Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, will, at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to subordinate its Lien on any property granted to or held by the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 6.02(iv).

(c) Each of the Lenders irrevocably authorizes the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, to provide any release or evidence of release, termination or subordination contemplated by this Section 9.14. Upon request by the Term Administrative Agent or the Term Collateral Agent, as the case may be, at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Term Administrative Agent’s authority or the Term Collateral Agent’s authority, as the case may be, to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Loan Party from its obligations under any Loan Document, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.14.

SECTION 9.15 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility.

In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) (A) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided

by the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders on the other hand, (B) the Borrower has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (C) the Borrower is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) (A) each of the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any other Person and (B) none of the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates has any obligation to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (iii) the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of the Borrower and its Affiliates, and none of the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Lenders has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Term Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Lenders and each of their respective Affiliates, with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

SECTION 9.16 Interest Rate Limitation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged or received by the Term Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the obligations hereunder.

SECTION 9.17 Intercreditor Agreements.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document: (a) the Liens granted to the Term Collateral Agent in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents and the exercise of any right related to any Collateral shall be subject, in each case, to the terms of the Customary Intercreditor Agreements, (b) in the event of any conflict between the express terms and provisions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, on the one hand, and of the Customary Intercreditor Agreements, on the other hand, the terms and provisions of the relevant Customary Intercreditor Agreements shall control, and (c) each Lender authorizes the Term Administrative Agent and/or the Term Collateral Agent to execute any such Customary Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender, and such Lender agrees to be bound by the terms thereof.

(b) Each Secured Party hereby agrees that the Term Administrative Agent and/or Term Collateral Agent may enter into any intercreditor agreement and/or subordination agreement pursuant to, or contemplated by, the terms of this Agreement (including with respect to Indebtedness

 

148


permitted pursuant to Section 6.01 and defined terms referenced therein) on its behalf and agrees to be bound by the terms thereof and, in each case, consents and agrees to the appointment of Royal Bank (or its affiliated designee, representative or agent) on its behalf as collateral agent, respectively, thereunder.

FORM OF GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE

Dated: April 13, 2017

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the Borrower and such of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group Member”) that is a party to this global intercompany note (the “Global Intercompany Note”), in case it owes any Indebtedness from time to time to any other Group Member, promises to pay to the order of such other Group Member as may make loans to such Group Member (each Group Member that owes Indebtedness to another Group Member as evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note being referred to hereinafter as a “Payor” and each Group Member that is owed Indebtedness by any other Group Member as evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note being referred to hereinafter as a “Payee”), on demand, in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate office of the Payee, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other indebtedness now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown in the books and records of such Payee. The failure to show any such Indebtedness or any error in showing such Indebtedness shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), among Installed Building Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each lender from time to time thereto (the “Term Lenders”), and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Term Loan Administrative Agent”), or the ABL Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ABL Credit Agreement” and, together with the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), by and among the Borrower, each lender from time to time party thereto (the “ABL Lenders” and together with the Term Lenders, the “Lenders”) and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “ABL Administrative Agent” and, together with the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the “Administrative Agents”), as applicable.

The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Interest shall be due and payable on demand or at such other times as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Upon demand for payment of any principal amount hereof, accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount shall also be due and payable unless otherwise agreed to in writing by such Payor and Payee. Interest shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be computed as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee.


With respect to any Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below), upon the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency or liquidation or similar proceeding of any jurisdiction relating to the applicable Payor, in each case to the extent constituting an Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Term Loan Credit Agreement or Section 8.1(g) or 8.1(h) of the ABL Credit Agreement, then (x) the Termination Date shall have occurred shall have occurred under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, and, under the ABL Credit Agreement, all Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and all Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than Bank Products Obligations not yet due and payable and indemnification and other contingent obligations not yet accrued and payable) (such date when all such events have occurred under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement being herein referred to as the “Combined Termination Date”), before any applicable Payee is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or make any demands for, any payment on account of this Global Intercompany Note and (y) until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred, any payment or distribution to which such Payee would otherwise be entitled (other than debt securities of such Payor that are subordinated, to at least the same extent as this Global Intercompany Note, to the payment of all Senior Obligations (as defined below) then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall be made to the Administrative Agents for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each of the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement (subject to the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement). No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Global Intercompany Note, to the extent evidencing Indebtedness owed to a Payee that is a Loan Party, has been pledged by each such Payee to either the Term Loan Administrative Agent or the ABL Administrative Agent, as applicable (the “Applicable Agent”), for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each Credit Agreement (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), as security for such Payee’s Obligations, if any, under the Credit Agreements, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements and the other Loan Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each applicable Payor acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agents on behalf of the Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of such Payee under this Global Intercompany Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future Secured Party shall be prejudiced in its right to enforce the subordination of this Global Intercompany Note by any act or failure to act on the part of any Payor or by any act or failure to act on the part of such Secured Party or any trustee or agent therefor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Global Intercompany Note, each Payee agrees that any and all Indebtedness evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note owed by a Payor that is a Loan Party (the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) and the Obligations (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) (collectively, the “Senior Obligations”) until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred; provided, that each such Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by such Payee pursuant to this Global Intercompany Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreements. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any applicable Payor that is a Loan Party, all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and


howsoever existing, in any assets of any such Payor (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to the Administrative Agents or any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Senior Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the ABL Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in such assets. Except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreements, the applicable Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any Senior Obligations and upon notice from the Applicable Agent, then until the earlier to occur of (x) the Combined Termination Date and (y) the date on which such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by any Payor that is a Loan Party to any Payee with respect to any Subordinated Indebtedness.

Subject to the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement, if any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), in respect of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall (despite these subordination provisions) be received by any Payee before the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the Applicable Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each Credit Agreement, ratably according to the respective aggregate amount remaining unpaid thereon, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Obligations in full in cash.

FORM OF TERM NOTE

 

US $                        [DATE]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [                    ] (hereinafter, together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Lender”), at the office of the Administrative Agent (as defined below), in immediately available funds, the principal sum of [                    and                     ]/100 DOLLARS ($[                    ]) of United States funds, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Term Loans advanced by the Lender to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement (as defined below), plus interest as hereinafter provided, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

This Term Note (this “Note”) is one of the Term Notes referred to in that certain Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders (the “Lenders”), and Royal Bank of Canada, as the Administrative Agent (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement except to the extent such capitalized terms are otherwise defined herein.

All principal amounts and other Secured Obligations then outstanding shall be due and payable in full on the Term Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the Term Loans shall be due and payable in full, in cash, whether by acceleration or otherwise, pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The principal outstanding hereunder is also subject to repayment and prepayment from time to time as provided in the Credit Agreement.

Prepayment of the principal amount of any Term Loan may be made only as provided in the Credit Agreement.

The Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the rates and at such times and in such manner as are provided under the Credit Agreement.

In no event shall the amount of interest and other charges for the use of money payable hereunder exceed the maximum amounts permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if the amount of such interest and other charges for the use of money payable hereunder or manner of payment exceeds the maximum amount allowable under Applicable Law, then, ipso facto as of the Effective Date, the Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from the Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied first, to reduce the principal balance of the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and second, returned to the Borrower, to the extent of such excess. It is the express intent hereof that the Borrower not pay, and the Lender not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may legally be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

 

O-1


All parties now or hereafter liable with respect to this Note, whether any Borrower, any Guarantor, endorser or any other Person, hereby waive any presentment for payment, demand, notice of non-payment or dishonor, protest and notice of protest whatsoever.

No failure or delay on the part of the Lender or any holder hereof in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right. Any waiver or indulgence granted by the Lenders or by the Required Lenders shall not constitute a modification of the Credit Agreement, except to the extent expressly provided in such waiver or indulgence, or constitute a course of dealing by the Lenders at variance with the terms of the Credit Agreement such as to require further notice by the Lenders of the Lenders’ intent to require strict adherence to the terms of the Credit Agreement in the future. Any such actions shall not in any way affect the ability of the Lenders, in their discretion, to exercise any rights available to them under the Credit Agreement or under any other agreement, whether or not the Lenders are party, relating to the Borrower.

The Borrower hereby promises to pay the costs of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, should this Note be collected by or through an attorney at law or under advice therefrom to the extent set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Time is of the essence in this Note.

This Note evidences the Lender’s portion of the Term Loans under, and is entitled to the benefits and subject to the terms of, the Credit Agreement, which contains provisions with respect to the acceleration of the maturity of this Note upon the happening of certain stated events, and provisions for prepayment and repayment. This Note is secured by and is also entitled to the benefits of the Loan Documents to the extent provided therein and any other agreement or instrument providing collateral for the Term Loans, whether now or hereafter in existence, and any filings, instruments, agreements and documents relating thereto and providing collateral for the Term Loans.

This Note may not be transferred or assigned or pledged except pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement.

This Note is subject to the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, which are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

This Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

ARTICLE 2

THE LOANS AND THE LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 2.1 Extension of Credit.

(a) Revolving Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each Lender agrees severally to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower in U.S. Dollars from time to time on any Business Day prior to the Maturity Date in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in any of the following:

(i) the Revolving Credit Obligations of such Lender exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio of the Revolving Loan Commitment; or

(ii) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Obligations exceeding the lesser of (A) the Revolving Loan Commitment, (B) the Borrowing Base (taking into account any Reserves which may have been implemented or modified since the date of the most recent Borrowing Base Certificate), and (C) the maximum amount of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under this Agreement pursuant to the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, prior to the Maturity Date Revolving Loans may be repaid and reborrowed from time to time on a revolving basis.

(b) The Letters of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank agrees to issue Letters of Credit, pursuant to Section 2.15, for the account of the Borrower on behalf of any Credit Party, from time to time on any Business Day prior to the date that is thirty (30) days prior to the Maturity Date, so long as, after giving effect to such issuance (i) no Overadvance exists or would result therefrom, and (ii) the Aggregate Amount of all Letter of Credit Obligations then outstanding does not exceed the Letter of Credit Commitment. The Borrower and the Lenders hereby acknowledge and agree that all Existing Letters of Credit shall constitute Letters of Credit under this Agreement on and after the Agreement Date with the same effect as if such Existing Letters of Credit were issued by Issuing Bank at the request of the Borrower on the Agreement Date.

(c) The Swing Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swing Bank agrees from time to time on any Business Day after the Agreement Date but prior to the Maturity Date to make Swing Loans to the Borrower so long as (i) no Overadvance exists or would result therefrom and (ii) the aggregate amount of Swing Loans (including all Swing Loans outstanding as of such Business Day) does not exceed $10,000,000.

 

73


(d) Overadvances; Optional Overadvances.

(i) If at any time an Overadvance exists, the amount of such Overadvance shall nevertheless constitute a portion of the Obligations that are secured by the Collateral and are entitled to all benefits thereof. In the event that (A) the Lenders shall make any Revolving Loans, (B) the Swing Bank shall make any Swing Loan, (C) the Administrative Agent shall make any Agent Advances or (D) the Issuing Bank shall agree to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, which in any such case gives rise to an Overadvance, the Borrower shall make, on written demand, a payment on the Obligations to be applied to the Revolving Loans, the Swing Loans, the Agent Advances and the Letter of Credit Reserve Account, as appropriate, in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Overadvance. In no event, however, shall the Borrower have any right whatsoever to (i) receive any Revolving Loan, (ii) receive any Swing Loan, or (iii) request the issuance of any Letter of Credit if, before or after giving effect thereto, there shall exist a Default or Event of Default.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph (i) or any other contrary provision of this Agreement, the Lenders hereby authorize the Swing Bank to, at the direction of the Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, and the Swing Bank may, at the direction of the Administrative Agent, but in the Swing Bank’s sole and absolute discretion, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Swing Loans to the Borrower notwithstanding that an Overadvance exists or thereby would be created, so long as after giving effect to such Swing Loans, (i) the outstanding Aggregate Revolving Credit Obligations do not exceed the Revolving Loan Commitment, (ii) all Overadvances plus Agent Advances do not exceed the lesser of (A) an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Borrowing Base and (B) $10,000,000 and (iii) no Overadvance may exist for more than 60 consecutive days and no more than two (2) Overadvances, with a minimum of 30 days between such Overadvances, may exist within any 12-month period. The foregoing sentence is for the exclusive benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Bank, and the Lenders and is not intended to benefit the Borrower in any way. The Majority Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authority to direct the Swing Bank to make Overadvances pursuant to this Section 2.1(d)(ii) and instruct the Administrative Agent to demand repayment of outstanding Revolving Loans from the Credit Parties to the extent necessary to cause an Overadvance to cease to exist. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of a Revolving Loan is appropriate shall be conclusive. In the event the Administrative Agent obtains actual knowledge that an Overadvance exists, regardless of the amount of, or reason for, such Overadvance, the Administrative Agent shall notify Lenders as soon as practicable (and prior to making any (or any additional) intentional Overadvances (except for and excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or expenses owed to the Lender Group) unless the Administrative Agent determines that prior notice would result in imminent harm to the Collateral or its value, in which case the Administrative Agent may make such Overadvances and provide notice as promptly as practicable thereafter), and Lenders with Revolving Loan Commitments thereupon shall, together with the Administrative Agent, jointly determine the terms of arrangements that shall be implemented with the

 

74


Borrower intended to reduce, within a reasonable time, the outstanding principal amount of the Overadvance. In such circumstances, if any Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment objects to the proposed terms of reduction or repayment of any Overadvance, the terms of reduction or repayment thereof shall be implemented according to the determination of the Majority Lenders. Each Lender shall be obligated to settle with the Administrative Agent or Swing Bank as provided in Section 2.1(e) or Section 2.2(g), as applicable, for the amount of such Lender’s pro rata share of any unintentional Overadvances by the Administrative Agent reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances made as permitted under this Section 2.1(d)(ii), and any Overadvances resulting from the charging to the Loan Account of interest, fees, or expenses.

(e) Agent Advances.

(i) Subject to the limitations set forth below and notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Lenders, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s sole and absolute discretion, (A) at any time that a Default or an Event of Default exists, or (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 have not been satisfied, to make Advances to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate amount outstanding at any time not to exceed (together with all other Aggregate Revolving Credit Obligations) the Revolving Loan Commitment nor in an amount that would exceed (when aggregated with all Overadvances and other Agent Advances) the lesser of (1) an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the Borrowing Base, and (2) $10,000,000, which the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable business judgment, deems necessary or desirable (x) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (y) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations, or (z) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as provided under this Agreement (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided that the Majority Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances and instruct the Administrative Agent to demand repayment of outstanding Agent Advances from the Credit Parties. Absent such revocation, the Administrative Agent’s determination that funding of an Agent Advance is appropriate shall be conclusive. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower written notice of any Agent Advance.

(ii) All Agent Advances shall be secured by the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. Each Agent Advance shall bear interest as a Base Rate Advance. Each Agent Advance shall be subject to all terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents applicable to Revolving Loans, except that all payments thereon shall be made to the Administrative Agent solely for its own account (except to the extent Lenders have funded participations therein pursuant to clause (iii) below) and the making of any Agent Advance shall not require the consent of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to make any Agent Advance hereunder.

 

75


(iii) The Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender no less frequently than weekly, as determined by the Administrative Agent, of the principal amount of Agent Advances outstanding by 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia, time) as of such date, and each Lender’s pro rata share thereof. Each Lender shall before 2:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on such Business Day make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds, the amount of its pro rata share of such principal amount of Agent Advances outstanding. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, notwithstanding any failure of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions in Section 4.2. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the principal amount of Agent Advances. Additionally, if at any time any Agent Advances are outstanding and any of the events described in clauses (g) or (h) of Section 8.1 shall have occurred, then each Lender shall automatically, upon the occurrence of such event, and without any action on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or the Lenders, be deemed to have purchased an undivided participation in the principal and interest of all Agent Advances then outstanding in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio and each Lender shall, notwithstanding such Event of Default, immediately pay to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s participation (and upon receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to such Lender, a loan participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds in such amount). The disbursement of funds in connection with the settlement of Agent Advances hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.2(e).

(f) Revolving Commitment Increases.

(i) Borrower shall have the right, but not the obligation, after the Agreement Date, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (an “Commitment Increase Notice”), to request an increase in the aggregate commitments under the Initial Revolving Facility (which may, at the election of Borrower, include a proportionate increase to Letter of Credit Commitment and, with the consent of the Swing Line Lender, include a proportionate increase to Swing Line Commitment) (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”, and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans;” the facility in connection therewith a “Incremental Revolving Facility”) (with Administrative Agent’s consent thereto not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) by an aggregate amount of up to $50,000,000; provided that (A) no commitment of any Lender may be increased without the consent of such Lender, (B) no Event of Default then exists or would result immediately after giving effect thereto, (C) the Incremental Revolving Loans (1) shall be guaranteed by the Guarantors and shall rank pari passu in right of (x) priority with respect to the Collateral and (y) payment with respect to the Obligations in respect of the Commitments in effect prior to the Revolving Commitment Increase and (2) shall be on terms and pursuant to the documentation applicable to the existing Commitments or otherwise acceptable to the Administrative Agent (it being understood that terms not substantially identical to the Revolving Facility which are applicable only after the then-existing Maturity Date are acceptable), and (D) the Revolving Commitment Increase

 

76


shall be requested in minimum amounts of $10,000,000 or a higher multiple of $1,000,000. The proceeds of each Revolving Commitment Increase may be used for any transaction permitted under this Agreement. Any Revolving Commitment Increase shall be denominated in U.S. Dollars. Each Commitment Increase Notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Revolving Commitment Increase being requested and (ii) the date on which such Revolving Commitment Increase is requested to become effective.

(ii) The Borrower may seek a Revolving Commitment Increase 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 Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, in connection therewith. The Borrower, each Incremental Revolving Credit Lender and the Administrative Agent and, the Swing Line Lender and each LC Issuer, to the extent their consent would be required under Section 10.12 for an assignment of Loans or Commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender, shall execute and deliver an Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement having terms and conditions consistent with the terms of this Section 2.1(f). Each Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement shall specify the terms of the Incremental Revolving Loans to be made thereunder, consistent with the provisions set forth in Section 2.1(f)(i). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Credit Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any 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 Revolving Commitment Increase, as applicable, or otherwise to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1(f), notwithstanding any requirements of Section 10.12. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(iii) Upon the effectiveness of any Revolving Commitments Increase entered into pursuant to this Section 2.1(f), each Lender with a Revolving Commitment immediately prior to the providing of such Incremental Revolving Facility will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of such Incremental Revolving Facility in respect of such provision, and each such Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swing Loans such that, after giving effect to such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (x) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (y) participations hereunder in Swing Loans held by each Lender with a Revolving Commitment and each Lender with an Incremental Revolving Facility will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Commitments and aggregate commitments under the Incremental Revolving Facilities of all Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and such Lender’s commitment under the Incremental Revolving Facility, as applicable. If, on the date of the providing of such Incremental Revolving Facility, there are any Revolving Loans outstanding, such Revolving Loans shall, on or prior to the effectiveness of such Incremental Revolving Facility, be prepaid from the proceeds of the Incremental

 

77


Revolving Loans made hereunder (reflecting such commitments under the Incremental Revolving Facility), which prepayment shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the Revolving Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 2.9. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

(iv) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the effectiveness of any Revolving Commitment Increase under this Section 2.1(f) shall be subject to the following conditions precedent: (A) satisfaction of all conditions precedent in Section 4.2, (B) such increase must be permitted by the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement, (C) the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate dated as of the effective date of such Revolving Commitment Increase signed by the chief financial officer or an officer with similar responsibilities of the Borrower certifying that the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio calculated on a Pro Forma Basis is not less than 1.0 to 1.0, (D) the satisfaction of any other conditions as agreed between the lenders providing such Revolving Commitment Increase and the Borrower and, (E) to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officer’s certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Agreement Date under Section 4.1 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion utilized generally in connection with similar credit facilities).

(v) This Section 2.1(f) shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.10 to the contrary.

(i) Initial and Subsequent Advances. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent in the case of Base Rate Advances irrevocable notice by telephone not later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) one (1) Business Day prior to the date of such Advance and shall immediately confirm any such telephone notice with a written Request for Advance; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone with a written Request for Advance shall not invalidate any notice so given.

(ii) Repayments and Conversions. The Borrower may (A) subject to Section 2.5, at any time without prior notice repay a Base Rate Advance or (B) upon at least three (3) Business Days irrevocable prior written notice to the Administrative Agent in the form of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, convert all or a portion of the principal of any Base Rate Advance to one or more Eurodollar Advances. Upon the date indicated by the Borrower, such Base Rate Advance shall be so repaid or converted.

(c) Eurodollar Advances.

(i) Initial and Subsequent Advances. The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent in the case of Eurodollar Advances irrevocable notice by telephone not later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such Advance and shall immediately confirm any such telephone notice with a written Request for Advance; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone with a written Request for Advance shall not invalidate any notice so given; provided, further, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, no such prior notice shall be required with respect to any Eurodollar Advances to be made on the Agreement Date.

(ii) Repayments, Continuations and Conversions. At least three (3) Business Days prior to each Payment Date for a Eurodollar Advance, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice in the form of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation specifying whether all or a portion of such Advance outstanding on such Payment Date is to be continued in whole or in part as one or more new Eurodollar Advances, and also specifying the new Interest Period applicable to each such new Advance (and subject to the provisions of this Agreement, upon such Payment Date, such Advance shall be so continued). Upon such Payment Date, any Eurodollar Advance (or portion thereof) not so continued shall be converted to a Base Rate Advance or, subject to Section 2.5, be repaid.

79


(d) Notification of Lenders. Upon receipt of a (i) Request for Advance or a telephone or telecopy request for Advance, (ii) notification from the Issuing Bank that a draw has been made under any Letter of Credit (unless the Issuing Bank will be reimbursed through the funding of a Swing Loan), or (iii) notice from the Borrower with respect to the prepayment of any outstanding Eurodollar Advance prior to the Payment Date for such Advance, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender by telephone or telecopy of the contents thereof and the amount of each Lender’s portion of any such Advance. Each Lender shall, not later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the date specified for such Advance (under clause (i) or (ii) above) in such notice, make available to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, or at such account as the Administrative Agent shall designate, the amount of such Lender’s portion of the Advance in immediately available funds.

(e) Disbursement. Prior to 4:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the date of an Advance hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Article 4, disburse the amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders in like funds by (i) transferring the amounts so made available by wire transfer to the Disbursement Account or (ii) in the case of an Advance the proceeds of which are to reimburse the Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.15, transferring such amounts to such Issuing Bank. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the date of any Advance that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s ratable portion of such Advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made or will make such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Advance and the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion and in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent such Lender shall not have so made such ratable portion available to the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the date of any Advance, such Lender agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, (x) for the first two (2) Business Days, at the Federal Funds Rate for such Business Days, and (y) thereafter, at the Base Rate. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s portion of the applicable Advance for purposes of this Agreement and if both such Lender and any Borrower shall pay and repay such corresponding amount, the Administrative Agent shall promptly relend to the applicable Borrower such corresponding amount. If such Lender does not repay such corresponding amount immediately upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The failure of any Lender to fund its portion of any Advance shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to fund its respective portion of the Advance on the date of such borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for any such failure of any other Lender.

 

80


(f) Deemed Requests for Advance. Unless payment is otherwise timely made by the Borrower, the becoming due of any amount required to be paid under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents as principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, premiums, fees, reimbursable expenses or other sums payable hereunder shall be deemed irrevocably to be a Request for Advance on the due date of, and in an aggregate amount required to pay, such principal, interest, reimbursement obligations in connection with Letters of Credit, premiums, fees, reimbursable expenses or other sums payable hereunder, and the proceeds of a Revolving Loan made pursuant thereto may be disbursed by way of direct payment of the relevant Obligation and shall bear interest as a Base Rate Advance. The Lenders shall have no obligation to the Borrower to honor any deemed Request for Advance under this Section 2.2(f) unless all the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied, but, with the consent of the Lenders required under the last sentence of Section 4.2, may do so in their sole discretion and without regard to the existence of, and without being deemed to have waived, any Default or Event of Default and without regard to the existence or creation of an Overadvance or the failure by the Borrower to satisfy any of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. No further authorization, direction or approval by the Borrower shall be required to be given by the Borrower for any deemed Request for Advance under this Section 2.2(f). The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to the Borrower written notice of any Advance pursuant to this Section 2.2(f). The Borrower has established with KeyBank National Association a master disbursement account into which the Administrative Agent wires proceeds of applicable Advances from time to time (together with any substitute master disbursement account that the Borrower may establish with any other Lender so long as the Borrower has notified the Administrative Agent that such account has been designated as the “Disbursement Account”, the “Disbursement Account”).

(g) Special Provisions Pertaining to Swing Loans.

(i) The Borrower shall give the Swing Bank written notice in the form of a Request for Advance, or notice by telephone no later than 11:00 a.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the date on which the Borrower wishes to receive an Advance of any Swing Loan followed immediately by a written Request for Advance, with a copy to the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that the failure by the Borrower to confirm any notice by telephone with a written Request for Advance shall not invalidate any notice so given; provided, further, however, that any request by the Borrower for a Base Rate Advance under the Revolving Loan Commitment shall be deemed to be a request for a Swing Loan unless the Borrower specifically requests otherwise. The Swing Loan shall be made on the date specified in the notice or the Request for Advance and such notice or Request for Advance shall specify (i) the amount of the requested Swing Loan and (ii) instructions for the disbursement of the proceeds of the requested Swing Loan. Each Swing Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to Revolving Loans, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Swing Bank solely for its own account. The Swing Bank shall not make any Swing Loans if the Swing Bank has received written notice from any Lender (or the Swing Bank has actual knowledge) that one or more applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.2 will not be satisfied (or waived pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.2) on the requested Advance date. The Swing Bank shall make the proceeds of each Swing Loan available to the Borrower by deposit of U.S. Dollars in same day funds by wire transfer to the Disbursement Account.

 

81


(ii) The Swing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent and each Lender no less frequently than weekly, as determined by the Administrative Agent, of the principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding as of 3:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) as of such date and each Lender’s pro rata share (based on its Revolving Commitment Ratio) thereof. Each Lender shall before 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the next Business Day make available to the Administrative Agent, in immediate available funds, the amount of its pro rata share (based on its Revolving Commitment Ratio) of such principal amount of Swing Loans outstanding. Upon such payment by a Lender, such Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, notwithstanding any failure of the Borrower to satisfy the conditions in Section 4.2. Each Revolving Loan so made shall bear interest as a Base Rate Advance. The Administrative Agent shall use such funds to repay the principal amount of Swing Loans to the Swing Bank. Additionally, if at any time any Swing Loans are outstanding, any of the events described in clauses (g) or (h) of Section 8.1 shall have occurred, then each Lender shall automatically upon the occurrence of such event and without any action on the part of the Swing Bank, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders be deemed to have purchased an undivided participation in the principal and interest of all Swing Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio of the principal and interest of all Swing Loans then outstanding and each Lender shall, notwithstanding such Event of Default, immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swing Bank in immediately available funds, the amount of such Lender’s participation (and upon receipt thereof, the Swing Bank shall deliver to such Lender a loan participation certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds in such amount). The disbursement of funds in connection with the settlement of Swing Loans hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.2(e).

Section 2.3 Interest.

(a) On Loans. Interest on the Loans, subject to Sections 2.3(b) and (c), shall be payable as follows:

(i) On Base Rate Advances. Interest on each Base Rate Advance shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366 day year and shall be payable monthly in arrears on the first day of each calendar month for the prior calendar month, commencing with the first calendar month beginning after the Agreement Date. Interest on Base Rate Advances then outstanding shall also be due and payable on the Maturity Date (or the date of any earlier prepayment in full of the Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents).

(iii) If No Notice of Selection of Interest Rate. If the Borrower fails to give the Administrative Agent timely notice of its selection of an Interest Rate Basis, or if for any reason a determination of a Eurodollar Rate for any Advance is not timely concluded, the Base Rate shall apply to such Advance. If the Borrower fails to elect to continue any Eurodollar Advance then outstanding prior to the last Payment Date applicable thereto in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.2, the Base Rate shall apply to such Advance commencing on and after such Payment Date.

(iv) On Swing Loans.

During the existence of an Event of Default, interest on the outstanding and overdue Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may, at the Administrative Agent’s election, and shall, at the written request of the Majority Lenders, accrue at the Default Rate; provided, however, that the Default Rate shall automatically be deemed to have been invoked at all times with respect to the overdue Obligations when the Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents have been accelerated or deemed accelerated pursuant to Section 8.2. Interest accruing at the Default Rate shall be payable on demand and in any event on the Maturity Date (or the date of any earlier prepayment in full of the Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) and shall accrue until the earliest to occur of (i) waiver of the applicable Event of Default in accordance with Section 10.12, (ii) agreement by the Majority Lenders to rescind the charging of interest at the Default Rate, or (iii) payment in full of the Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

83

(b) Unused Line Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Ratios, an unused line fee (“Unused Line Fee”) based upon the Borrower’s Utilization and the Unused Line Fee Rate. Such Unused Line Fee shall be computed for the actual number of days elapsed on the basis of a 365/366 day year, shall be payable in arrears on the first day of each calendar month for the prior calendar month, commencing with the first calendar month ending after the Agreement Date, and if then unpaid, on the Maturity Date (or the date of any earlier prepayment in full of the Obligations arising under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents), and shall be fully earned when due and non-refundable when paid.

(c) Letter of Credit Fees.

(i) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Ratios, a fee on the stated amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit for each day from the Date of Issue through the expiration date of each such Letter of Credit (whether such date is the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit at the time of the original issuance thereof or the stated expiration date of such Letter of Credit upon any renewal thereof) at a rate per annum on the amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time with respect to Eurodollar Advances plus, at all times when the Default Rate is in effect, 2.00%.

Section 2.5 Prepayment/Cancellation of Revolving Loan Commitment.

(a) The principal amount of any Base Rate Advance may be repaid in full or in part at any time, without penalty or prior notice, and the principal amount of any Eurodollar Advance may be prepaid prior to the applicable Payment Date upon three (3) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent; provided that the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, on the earlier of demand or the Maturity Date, for any loss or reasonable out-of-pocket expense incurred by the Lenders or the Administrative Agent in connection with such prepayment, as set forth in Section 2.9. Each notice of prepayment of any Eurodollar Advance shall be irrevocable, and each prepayment or repayment made under this Section 2.5(a) shall include the accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or repaid. Upon receipt of any notice of repayment or prepayment, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the contents thereof by telephone or telecopy and of such Lender’s portion of the repayment or prepayment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not make any repayment or prepayment of the Revolving Loans unless and until the balance of the Swing Loans and the Agent Advances then outstanding is zero. Except as provided in Section 2.5(b), any repayment and prepayment of Advances outstanding under the Revolving Loan Commitment shall not reduce the Revolving Loan Commitment. Any prepayment of the Loans shall not affect the Borrower’s obligation to continue to make payments under any Hedge Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding such prepayment, subject to the terms of such Hedge Agreement.

(b) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Agreement Date and prior to the Maturity Date, upon at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, without premium or penalty, to cancel or reduce permanently all or a portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment on a pro rata basis among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Ratios; provided that (i) any such partial reduction shall be made in an amount not less than $15,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitment may not be

 

85


reduced to an amount that is less than $50,000,000 but greater than $0, (iii) the Revolving Loan Commitment may not be reduced to an amount below the then outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations (unless the Revolving Loan Commitment is cancelled and the Letter of Credit Obligations are cash collateralized as set forth below), and (iv) in connection with any partial reduction in the Revolving Loan Commitment, the Letter of Credit Commitment shall be automatically reduced to an amount not to exceed 50.0% of the Revolving Loan Commitment after giving effect to such partial reduction. As of the date of cancellation or reduction set forth in such notice, the Revolving Loan Commitment shall be permanently canceled or reduced to the amount stated in the Borrower’s notice for all purposes herein, and the Borrower shall immediately (x) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders the amount necessary such that the principal amount of the Loans then outstanding (together with all outstanding Letter of Credit Obligations) does not exceed the amount of the Revolving Loan Commitment as so reduced, together with accrued interest on the amount so prepaid and the Unused Line Fee set forth in Section 2.4(b) accrued through the date of the reduction, with respect to the amount reduced, or cancellation, (y) reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any loss or out-of-pocket expense incurred by any of them in connection with such payment as set forth in Section 2.9, and (z) in the case of cancellation of the Revolving Loan Commitment, secure the Letter of Credit Obligations through the delivery of cash collateral or, in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent, a “back-stop” letter of credit, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, in an amount equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the Letters of Credit Obligations.

Section 2.6 Repayment.

(a) The Revolving Loans. All unpaid principal and accrued interest on the Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full in cash on the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in the event that at any time and for any reason there shall exist an Overadvance, the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Overadvance, which payment shall constitute a mandatory payment of the Revolving Loans, Agent Advances, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Reserve Account, as appropriate.

(b) The Other Obligations. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower hereby promises to pay all Obligations (other than Obligations in respect of Bank Products), including, without limitation, the principal amount of the Loans, amounts drawn under Letters of Credit and accrued and unpaid interest and all fees on the foregoing, as the same become due and payable hereunder and, in any event, on the Maturity Date. In addition to the foregoing, the Borrower hereby promises to pay all Obligations in respect of Bank Products as the same become due and payable under the applicable Bank Products Documents.

Section 2.7 Notes; Loan Accounts.

(a) The Loans shall be repayable in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth herein and, upon request by any Lender, the Loans owed to such Lender shall be evidenced by a Revolving Loan Note. A Revolving Loan Note shall be payable to the order of each Lender requesting such a Note in accordance with the Revolving Commitment Ratio of such Lender. Each such Note shall be issued by the Borrower to the applicable Lender and shall be duly executed and delivered by an Authorized Signatory of the Borrower.

 

86


(b) The Administrative Agent shall open and maintain on its books in the name of the Borrower a loan account with respect to the Loans and interest thereon (the “Loan Account”). The Administrative Agent shall debit such Loan Account for the principal amount of each Advance made by it on behalf of the Lenders, accrued interest thereon, and all other amounts which shall become due from the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement and shall credit the Loan Account for each payment which the Borrower shall make in respect to the Obligations. The records of the Administrative Agent with respect to such Loan Account shall be conclusive evidence of the Loans and accrued interest thereon, absent manifest error.

Section 2.8 Manner of Payment; When Payments Due.

(a) Each payment (including any prepayment) by the Borrower on account of the principal of or interest on the Loans, fees, and any other amount owed to any member of the Lender Group under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made not later than 3:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) on the date specified for payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent at the Administrative Agent’s Office, for the account of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in U.S. Dollars without setoff, deduction, or counterclaim in immediately available funds. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m. (Atlanta, Georgia, time) shall be deemed received on the next Business Day. In the case of a payment for the account of a Lender, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter distribute the amount so received in like funds to such Lender. In the case of a payment for the account of the Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter distribute the amount so received in like funds to the Issuing Bank. If the Administrative Agent shall not have received any payment from the Borrower as and when due, the Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders accordingly.

(b) Except as provided in the definition of Interest Period, if any payment under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be specified to be made on a day which is not a Business Day, it shall be made on the next succeeding day which is a Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in computing interest and fees, if any, in connection with such payment.

Section 2.9 Reimbursement. Whenever any member of the Lender Group shall sustain or incur any losses (including losses of anticipated profits) or out-of-pocket expenses in connection with (a) failure by any Borrower to borrow or continue any Eurodollar Advance, or convert any Advance to a Eurodollar Advance after having given notice of its intention to do so in accordance with Section 2.2 (whether by reason of the election of such Borrower not to proceed or the non-fulfillment of any of the conditions set forth in this Agreement), or (b) prepayment of any Eurodollar Advance in whole or in part for any reason or (c) failure by any Borrower to prepay any Eurodollar Advance after giving notice of its intention to prepay such Advance, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, promptly upon such Lender’s demand therefor, an amount sufficient to compensate such Lender

 

87


for all such losses and out-of-pocket expenses. Such Lender’s good faith determination of the amount of such losses and out-of-pocket expenses, absent manifest error, shall be binding and conclusive. Losses subject to reimbursement hereunder shall include, without limitation, expenses incurred by any Lender Group member or any participant of such Lender Group member permitted hereunder in connection with the re-deployment of funds prepaid, repaid, not borrowed, or paid, as the case may be, and any lost profit of such Lender Group member or any participant of such Lender Group member over the remainder of the Interest Period for such prepaid Advance. For purposes of calculating amounts payable to a Lender Group member under this paragraph, each applicable Lender Group member shall be deemed to have actually funded its relevant Eurodollar Advance through the purchase of a deposit bearing interest at the Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Advance and having a maturity and repricing characteristics comparable to the relevant Interest Period; provided, however, that each applicable Lender Group member may fund each of its Eurodollar Advances in any manner it sees fit, and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under this Section.

Section 2.10 Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) Advances. Each Advance from the Lenders under the Revolving Loan Commitment made on or after the Agreement Date shall be made pro rata on the basis of the respective Revolving Commitment Ratios of such Lenders.

(b) Payments. Each payment and prepayment of the principal of the Revolving Loans, and each payment of interest on the Revolving Loans received from the Borrower, shall be made by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective unpaid principal amounts outstanding under the Revolving Loans immediately prior to such payment or prepayment (except in cases when a Lender’s right to receive payments is restricted pursuant to Section 2.17).

(c) Sharing of Set-offs. 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 other Revolving Credit Obligations that would result in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Credit Obligations and accrued interest and fees thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender with respect to its Revolving Credit Obligations, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Credit Obligations of other Lenders 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 Revolving Credit Obligations; 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 subsection 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 (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Credit Obligations to any assignee or participant, other than

 

88


to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). 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.

Section 2.11 Application of Payments.

89

90


Section 2.13 All Obligations to Constitute One Obligation. All Obligations shall constitute one general obligation of the Credit Parties and shall be secured by the Administrative Agent’s security interest (on behalf of, and for the benefit of, the Lender Group) and Lien upon all of the Collateral, and by all other security interests and Liens heretofore, now or at any time hereafter granted by any Credit Party to the Administrative Agent or any other member of the Lender Group, to the extent provided in the Security Documents under which such Liens arise.

Section 2.14 Maximum Rate of Interest. The Borrower and the Lender Group hereby agree and stipulate that the only charges imposed upon the Borrower for the use of money in connection with this Agreement are and shall be the specific interest and fees described in this Article 2 and in any other Loan Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower and the Lender Group further agree and stipulate that all closing fees, agency fees, syndication fees, facility fees, underwriting fees, default charges, late charges, funding or “breakage” charges, increased cost charges, attorneys’ fees and reimbursement for costs and expenses paid by any member of the Lender Group to third parties or for damages incurred by the Lender Group, or any of them, are charges to compensate the Lender Group for underwriting and administrative services and costs or losses performed or incurred, and to be performed and incurred, by the Lender Group in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall under no circumstances be deemed to be charges for the use of money pursuant to any Applicable Law. In no event shall the amount of interest and other charges for the use of money payable under this Agreement exceed the maximum amounts permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. The Borrower and the Lender Group, in executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate or rates of interest and other charges for the use of money and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however, that anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if the amount of such interest and other charges for the use of money or manner of payment exceeds the maximum amount allowable under Applicable Law, then, ipso facto as of the Agreement Date, the Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from the Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Revolving Loans to the extent of such excess.

Section 2.15 Letters of Credit.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank, on behalf of the Lenders, and in reliance on the agreements of the Lenders set forth in Section 2.15(c) below, hereby agrees to issue one or more Letters of Credit up to an aggregate face amount equal to the Letter of Credit Commitment; provided, however, that, except as described in the last sentence of Section 4.2, the Issuing Bank shall not issue any Letter of Credit unless the conditions precedent to the issuance thereof set forth in Section 4.2 have been satisfied. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars, and (ii) expire no later than the earlier to occur of (A) the date ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date, and (B) three hundred sixty (360) days after its date of issuance (but may contain provisions for automatic renewal so long as no Default or Event of Default exists on the renewal date or would be caused by such renewal; provided that no such renewal shall extend beyond the date ten (10) days prior to the Maturity Date). With respect to each Letter of Credit, (i) the rules of the International Standby Practices,

 

91


ICC Publication No. 590, or any subsequent revision or restatement thereof adopted by the ICC and in use by the Issuing Bank, shall apply to each Standby Letter of Credit and (ii) the rules of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits, as most recently published by the International Chamber of Commerce at the time of issuance shall apply to each Commercial Letter of Credit, and, to the extent not inconsistent therewith, the laws of the State of New York. The Issuing Bank shall not at any time be obligated to issue, or cause to be issued, any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Bank to exceed any limits imposed by, any Applicable Law.

(b) The Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Bank issue a Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank a Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit for each Letter of Credit to be issued by the Issuing Bank, not later than 12:00 noon (Atlanta, Georgia time) on the third (3rd) Business Day preceding the date on which the requested Letter of Credit is to be issued, or such shorter notice as may be acceptable to the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent. Upon receipt of any such Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit, subject to satisfaction of all conditions precedent thereto as set forth in Section 4.2 or waiver of such conditions pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.2, the Issuing Bank shall process such Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby. The Issuing Bank shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent following the issuance thereof. In addition to the fees payable pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(ii), the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Bank for normal and customary costs and expenses incurred by the Issuing Bank in issuing, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering the Letters of Credit.

(c) Immediately upon the issuance by the Issuing Bank of a Letter of Credit and in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from the Issuing Bank, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio, in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto (including, without limitation, all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto). The Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of any draw under a Letter of Credit. At such time as the Administrative Agent shall be notified by the Issuing Bank that the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit has drawn on the same, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Swing Bank (or, at its option, all Lenders), by telephone or telecopy, of the amount of the draw and, in the case of each Lender, such Lender’s portion of such draw amount as calculated in accordance with its Revolving Commitment Ratio.

(d) The Borrower hereby agrees to immediately reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of draws under each Letter of Credit. In order to facilitate such repayment, the Borrower hereby irrevocably requests the Lenders, and the Lenders hereby severally agree, on the terms and conditions of this Agreement (other than as provided in Article 2 with respect to the amounts of, the timing of requests for, and the repayment of Advances hereunder and in Article 4 with respect to conditions precedent to Advances hereunder), with respect to any drawing under a Letter of Credit, to make a Base Rate Advance

 

92


on each day on which a draw is made under any Letter of Credit and in the amount of such draw, and to pay the proceeds of such Advance directly to the Issuing Bank to reimburse the Issuing Bank for the amount paid by it upon such draw. Each Lender shall pay its share of such Base Rate Advance by paying its portion of such Advance to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 2.2(e) and its Revolving Commitment Ratio, without reduction for any set-off or counterclaim of any nature whatsoever and regardless of whether any Default or Event of Default exists or would be caused thereby. The disbursement of funds in connection with a draw under a Letter of Credit pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 2.2(e). The obligation of each Lender to make payments to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, in accordance with this Section 2.15 shall be absolute and unconditional and no Lender shall be relieved of its obligations to make such payments by reason of noncompliance by any other Person with the terms of the Letter of Credit or for any other reason (other than the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank in paying such Letter of Credit, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received from the other Lenders. Any overdue amounts payable by the Lenders to the Issuing Bank in respect of a draw under any Letter of Credit shall bear interest, payable on demand, (x) for the first two (2) Business Days, at the Federal Funds Rate, and (y) thereafter, at the Base Rate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the request of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Bank may, at its option and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.2(g) other than the condition that the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article 4 be satisfied, make Swing Loans to reimburse the Issuing Bank for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit.

(e) The Borrower agrees that each Advance by the Lenders to reimburse the Issuing Bank for draws under any Letter of Credit, shall, for all purposes hereunder, unless and until converted into a Eurodollar Advance pursuant to Section 2.2(b)(ii), be deemed to be a Base Rate Advance.

(f) The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Issuing Bank in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for such actions or omissions as shall constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuing Bank as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be binding on the Borrower as between the Borrower and the Issuing Bank, and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Bank to the Borrower. The obligation of the Borrower to reimburse the Issuing Bank for a drawing under any Letter of Credit or the Lenders for Advances made by them to the Issuing Bank on account of draws made under the Letters of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever, including, without limitation, the following circumstances:

(i) Any lack of validity or enforceability of any Loan Document;

(ii) Any amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any or all of the Loan Documents;

 

93


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

(iv) The existence of any claim, set-off, defense or any right which any Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with any Letter of Credit, any transaction contemplated by any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, or any unrelated transaction;

(v) Any statement or any other documents presented under any Letter of Credit proving to be insufficient, forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect whatsoever;

(vi) The insolvency of any Person issuing any documents in connection with any Letter of Credit;

(vii) Any breach of any agreement between any Borrower and any beneficiary or transferee of any Letter of Credit;

(viii) Any irregularity in the transaction with respect to which any Letter of Credit is issued, including any fraud by the beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit;

(ix) Any errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, wireless or otherwise, whether or not they are in code;

(x) Any act, error, neglect or default, omission, insolvency or failure of business of any of the correspondents of the Issuing Bank;

(xi) Any other circumstances arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank;

(xii) Payment by the Issuing Bank under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a sight draft or a certificate which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; provided that such payment shall not have constituted gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Bank as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; and

(xiii) Any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

(g) The Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such

 

94


Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of the issuance of a Letter of Credit, except that the Borrower shall not be liable to an Indemnitee for any portion of such claims, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. This Section 2.15(g) shall survive termination of this Agreement.

(h) Each Lender shall be responsible (to the extent the Issuing Bank is not reimbursed by the Borrower) for its pro rata share (based on such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio) of any and all reasonable out-of-pocket costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) and disbursements which may be incurred or made by the Issuing Bank in connection with the collection of any amounts due under, the administration of, or the presentation or enforcement of any rights conferred by any Letter of Credit, any Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s obligations to reimburse draws thereunder or otherwise. In the event the Borrower shall fail to pay such expenses of the Issuing Bank within fifteen (15) days of demand for payment by the Issuing Bank, each Lender shall thereupon pay to the Issuing Bank its pro rata share (based on such Lender’s Revolving Commitment Ratio) of such expenses within ten (10) days from the date of the Issuing Bank’s notice to the Lenders of the Borrower’s failure to pay; provided, however, that if the Borrower shall thereafter pay such expenses, the Issuing Bank will repay to each Lender the amounts received from such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.16 Bank Products. Any Credit Party may request and the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, arrange for such Credit Party to obtain from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, Bank Products although no Credit Party is required to do so. If any Bank Products are provided by an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Affiliate of any Lender, the Credit Parties agree to indemnify and hold the Lender Group, or any of them, harmless from any and all costs and obligations now or hereafter incurred by the Lender Group, or any of them, which arise from any indemnity given by the Administrative Agent to any of its Affiliates, or any Lender to any of its Affiliates, as applicable, related to such Bank Products; provided, however, nothing contained herein is intended to limit the Credit Parties’ rights, with respect to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliates of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as applicable, if any, which arise as a result of the execution of Bank Products Documents. The agreement contained in this Section shall survive termination of this Agreement. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of Bank Products from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (a) is in the sole and absolute discretion of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliates, as applicable, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliates, as applicable.

 

95


Section 2.17 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Cash Collateral.

(i) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.17(b)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than one hundred three percent (103%) of the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender.

(ii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the minimum amount required pursuant to clause (i) above, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.17(a) or Section 2.17(b) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit or Letter of Credit Disbursements (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iv) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided in respect of any Letter of Credit Obligations shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(a) following (A) the elimination of the applicable Letter of Credit Obligations (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Sections 2.17(b) through (d) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Letter of Credit Obligations or other obligations; provided, further, that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents.

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

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Majority Lenders and in Section 10.12.

 

96


(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.4 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swing Bank hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.17(a); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize future Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.17(a); sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swing Bank as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swing Bank against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Letter of Credit Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Letter of Credit Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Loan Commitments without giving effect to sub-section (iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.17(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(iii) (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Line Fee pursuant to Section 2.4(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).

 

97


(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees pursuant to Section 2.4(c) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to that portion of its Letter of Credit Obligations for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.17(a).

(C) With respect to Unused Line Fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit or Swing Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to the Issuing Bank and Swing Bank, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to the Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Obligations or Swing Bank’s Swing Loan Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitment Ratio (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Obligations of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment. Subject to Section 10.25, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v) If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Loan Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Letter of Credit Obligations with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.17(a).

(c) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swing Bank and Issuing Bank agree in writing (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Commitment Ratios (without giving effect to Section 2.17(b)(iv), whereupon such Lender will

 

98


cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(d) New Swing Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Bank will not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, and the Swing Bank will not be required to make any Swing Loans, unless they are satisfied that 100% of the related Letter of Credit Obligations and Swing Loan Obligations is fully covered or eliminated by Cash Collateral and reallocation as set forth in this Section 2.17.

Section 2.18 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Requirements of Law. If the applicable withholding agent shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable withholding agent) to deduct any Taxes from such payments, then the applicable withholding agent shall make such deductions and shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law, and if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions have been made (including such deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.18), each Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Administrative Agent for its own account, the Administrative Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of paragraph (a) above, the Borrower shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Requirements of Law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender within 30 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document and any Other Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.18) and any reasonable expenses 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 setting forth in reasonable detail the basis and calculation of the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

 

99


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

(e) Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law, or reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, any withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under the Loan Documents. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders any such documentation expired, obsolete or inaccurate in any respect (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 2.18(e)), deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the applicable withholding agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Unless the applicable withholding agent has received forms or other documents satisfactory to it indicating that payments under any Loan Document to or for a Lender are not subject to withholding tax or are subject to Tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or other applicable withholding agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) Each Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding.

(ii) Each Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party,

(B) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms),

 

100


(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) two properly completed and duly signed certificates, substantially in the form of Exhibit K (any such certificate a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or any successor forms),

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Lender is a partnership or a participating Lender), two properly completed and duly signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms) of the Foreign Lender, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, United States Tax Compliance Certificate, Form W-9, Form W-8IMY (or other successor forms) or any other required information from each beneficial owner that would be required under this Section 2.18 if such beneficial owner were a Lender, as applicable (provided that, if the Lender is a partnership (and not a participating Lender) and one or more direct or indirect partners are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, the United States Tax Compliance Certificate may be provided by such Lender on behalf of such direct or indirect partner(s)), or

(E) two properly completed and duly signed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Requirements of Law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

(iii) If a payment made to any Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative 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 Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (e), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(f) If the Borrower determines in good faith that a reasonable basis exists for contesting any Taxes for which indemnification has been demanded hereunder, the Administrative Agent or the relevant Lender, as applicable, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower in a reasonable challenge of such Taxes if so requested by the Borrower, provided that (a) the Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in its

 

101


reasonable discretion that it would not be subject to any unreimbursed third party cost or expense or otherwise be prejudiced by cooperating in such challenge, (b) the Borrower pays all related expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable and (c) the Borrower indemnifies the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, for any liabilities or other costs incurred by such party in connection with such challenge. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.18, it shall pay over such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees promptly to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. The Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, at the Borrower’s request, provide the Borrower with a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to repay such refund received from the relevant taxing authority (provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender may delete any information therein that the Administrative Agent or such Lender deems confidential). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(f), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to the indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.18(f) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld and otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other person.

(g) The agreements in this Section 2.18 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(h) For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “applicable Requirements of Law” includes FATCA.

ARTICLE 3

GUARANTY

Section 3.1 Guaranty.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby, jointly and severally, guarantees to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, the full and prompt payment of the Obligations, including, without limitation, any interest therein (including, without limitation, interest as provided in this Agreement, accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any insolvency proceedings, whether or not such interest accrues or is recoverable against any Borrower after the filing of such petition for purposes of the Bankruptcy Code or is an allowed claim in such proceeding), plus reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses if the obligations represented by this Guaranty are collected by law, through an attorney-at-law, or under advice therefrom.

(b) Regardless of whether any proposed guarantor or any other Person shall become in any other way responsible to the Lender Group, or any of them, for or in respect of the Obligations or any part thereof, and regardless of whether or not any Person now or hereafter responsible to the Lender Group, or any of them, for the Obligations or any part thereof, whether under this Guaranty or otherwise, shall cease to be so liable, each Guarantor hereby declares and agrees that this Guaranty shall be a joint and several obligation, shall be a continuing guaranty and shall be operative and binding until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash (or in the case of Letter of Credit Obligations, secured through delivery of cash collateral in an amount equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the Letter of Credit Obligations) and the Commitments shall have been terminated.

(c) Each Guarantor absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably waives any and all right to assert any defense (other than the defense of payment in cash in full, to the extent of its obligations hereunder, or a defense that such Guarantor’s liability is limited as provided in Section 3.1(g)), set-off, counterclaim or cross-claim of any nature whatsoever with respect to this Guaranty or the obligations of the Guarantors under this Guaranty or the obligations of any other Person or party (including, without limitation, the Borrower) relating to this Guaranty or the obligations of any of the Guarantors under this Guaranty or otherwise with respect to the Obligations in any action or proceeding brought by the Administrative Agent or any other member of the Lender Group to collect the Obligations or any portion thereof, or to enforce the obligations of any of the Guarantors under this Guaranty.

(d) The Lender Group, or any of them, may from time to time, without exonerating or releasing any Guarantor in any way under this Guaranty, (i) take such further or other security or securities for the Obligations or any part thereof as they may deem proper, or (ii) release, discharge, abandon or otherwise deal with or fail to deal with any Guarantor of the Obligations or any security or securities therefor or any part thereof now or hereafter held by the Lender Group, or any of them, or (iii) amend, modify, increase, extend, accelerate or waive in any manner any of the provisions, terms, or conditions of the Loan Documents, all as they may consider expedient or appropriate in their sole and absolute discretion. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, or of Section 3.1(e), it is understood that the Lender Group, or any of them, may, without exonerating or releasing any Guarantor, give up, modify or abstain from perfecting or taking advantage of any security for the Obligations and accept or make any compositions or arrangements, and realize upon any security for the Obligations when, and in such manner, and with or without notice, all as such Person may deem expedient.

(e) Each Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that no change in the nature or terms of the Obligations or any of the Loan Documents, or other agreements, instruments or contracts evidencing, related to or attendant with the Obligations (including any novation), shall

 

103


discharge all or any part of the liabilities and obligations of such Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty; it being the purpose and intent of the Guarantors and the Lender Group that the covenants, agreements and all liabilities and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor agrees that until the performance of and payment in full in cash of the Obligations (without possibility of recourse, whether by operation of law or otherwise) and the termination of the Commitments, such Guarantor’s undertakings hereunder shall not be released, in whole or in part, by any action or thing which might, but for this paragraph of this Guaranty, be deemed a legal or equitable discharge of a surety or guarantor, or by reason of any waiver, omission of the Lender Group, or any of them, or their failure to proceed promptly or otherwise, or by reason of any action taken or omitted by the Lender Group, or any of them, whether or not such action or failure to act varies or increases the risk of, or affects the rights or remedies of, such Guarantor or by reason of any further dealings between the Borrower, on the one hand, and any member of the Lender Group, on the other hand, or any other guarantor or surety, and such Guarantor hereby expressly waives and surrenders any defense to its liability hereunder, or any right of counterclaim or offset of any nature or description which it may have or may exist based upon, and shall be deemed to have consented to, any of the foregoing acts, omissions, things, agreements or waivers.

(f) The Lender Group, or any of them, may, without demand or notice of any kind upon or to any Guarantor, at any time or from time to time when any amount shall be due and payable hereunder by any Guarantor, if the Borrower shall not have timely paid any of the Obligations (or in the case of Letter of Credit Obligations, secured through delivery of cash collateral in an amount equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the Letter of Credit Obligations), set-off and appropriate and apply to any portion of the Obligations hereby guaranteed, and in such order of application as the Administrative Agent may from time to time elect in accordance with this Agreement, any deposits, property, balances, credit accounts or moneys of any Guarantor in the possession of any member of the Lender Group or under their respective control for any purpose. If and to the extent that any Guarantor makes any payment to the Administrative Agent or any other Person pursuant to or in respect of this Guaranty, any claim which such Guarantor may have against any Borrower by reason thereof shall be subject and subordinate to the prior payment in full in cash of the Obligations to the satisfaction of the Lender Group and the termination of the Commitments.

(g) The creation or existence from time to time of Obligations in excess of the amount committed to or outstanding on the date of this Guaranty is hereby authorized, without notice to any Guarantor, and shall in no way impair or affect this Guaranty or the rights of the Lender Group herein. It is the intention of each Guarantor and the Administrative Agent that each Guarantor’s obligations hereunder shall be, but not in excess of, the Maximum Guaranteed Amount (as herein defined). The “Maximum Guaranteed Amount” with respect to any Guarantor, shall mean the maximum amount which could be paid by such Guarantor without rendering this Guaranty void or voidable as would otherwise be held or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in any action or proceeding involving any state or Federal bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws relating to the insolvency of debtors.

 

104


(h) Upon the bankruptcy or winding up or other distribution of assets of any Borrower, or of any surety or guarantor (other than the applicable Guarantor) for any Obligations of any Borrower to the Lender Group, or any of them, the rights of the Administrative Agent against any Guarantor shall not be affected or impaired by the omission of any member of the Lender Group to prove its claim, or to prove the full claim, as appropriate, against such Borrower, or any such other guarantor or surety, and the Administrative Agent may prove such claims as it sees fit and may refrain from proving any claim and in its discretion may value as it sees fit or refrain from valuing any security held by it without in any way releasing, reducing or otherwise affecting the liability to the Lender Group of each of the Guarantors.

(i) Each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably expressly waives, except to the extent such waiver would be expressly prohibited by Applicable Law, the following: (A) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty, (B) notice of the existence or creation of all or any of the Obligations, (C) presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest and all other notices whatsoever (other than notices expressly required hereunder or under any other Loan Document to which any Guarantor is a party), (D) all diligence in collection or protection of or realization upon the Obligations or any part thereof, any obligation hereunder, or any security for any of the foregoing, (E) all rights to enforce any remedy which the Lender Group, or any of them, may have against any Borrower, (F) until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (or in the case of a Letter of Credit Obligations, secured through delivery of cash collateral in an amount equal to one hundred and three percent (103%) of the Letter of Credit Obligations), and all Commitments have been terminated, all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and reimbursement from any Borrower for amounts paid hereunder and any benefit of, or right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereinafter held by the Lender Group, or any of them, in respect of the Obligations, and (G) any and all rights under any Applicable Law governing guaranties or sureties. If a claim is ever made upon any member of the Lender Group for the repayment or recovery of any amount or amounts received by such Person in payment of any of the Obligations and such Person repays all or part of such amount by reason of (1) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such Person or any of its property, or (2) any settlement or compromise of any such claim effected by such Person with any such claimant, including any Borrower, then in such event each Guarantor agrees that any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon such Guarantor, notwithstanding any revocation hereof or the cancellation of any promissory note or other instrument evidencing any of the Obligations, and such Guarantor shall be and remain obligated to such Person hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Person.

(j) This Guaranty is a continuing guaranty of the Obligations and all liabilities to which it applies or may apply under the terms hereof and shall be conclusively presumed to have been created in reliance hereon. No failure or delay by any member of the Lender Group in the exercise of any right, power, privilege or remedy shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent of any right or remedy shall preclude other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy and no course of dealing between any Guarantor and any member of the Lender Group shall operate as a waiver thereof. No action by any member of the Lender Group permitted hereunder shall in any way impair or affect this Guaranty. For the purpose of this Guaranty, the Obligations shall

 

105


include, without limitation, all Obligations of the Borrower to the Lender Group, notwithstanding any right or power of any third party, individually or in the name of any Borrower and the Lender Group, or any of them, to assert any claim or defense as to the invalidity or unenforceability of any such Obligation, and no such claim or defense shall impair or affect the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.

(k) This is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. In the event the Administrative Agent makes a demand upon any Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Guaranty, such Guarantor shall be held and bound to the Administrative Agent directly as debtor in respect of the payment of the amounts hereby guaranteed. All costs and expenses, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Administrative Agent in obtaining performance of or collecting payments due under this Guaranty shall be deemed part of the Obligations guaranteed hereby.

(l) Each Subsidiary Guarantor is a direct or indirect Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower. Each Guarantor expressly represents and acknowledges that any financial accommodations by the Lender Group to the Borrower, including, without limitation, the extension of credit, are and will be of direct interest, benefit and advantage to such Guarantor.

(m) Each Guarantor shall be entitled to subrogation and contribution rights from and against the Borrower to the extent any Guarantor is required to pay to any member of the Lender Group any amount in excess of the Loans advanced directly to, or other Obligations incurred directly by, such Guarantor or as otherwise available under Applicable Law; provided, however, that such subrogation and contribution rights are and shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 3.1 and until the Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (or in the case of the Letter of Credit Obligations, all of the Letter of Credit Obligations have been cash collateralized), each Guarantor hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably expressly subordinates to the prior payment of the Obligations, except to the extent such subordination would be expressly prohibited by Applicable Law, all rights of subrogation, indemnification, contribution and reimbursement from any Borrower for amounts paid hereunder and any benefit of, or right to participate in, any collateral or security now or hereinafter held by the Lender Group, or any of them, in respect to the Obligations. The payment obligation of a Guarantor to any other Guarantor under any Applicable Law regarding contribution rights among co-obligors or otherwise shall be subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Guaranty, and such Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with respect to such rights until payment and satisfaction in full of all such obligations.

Section 3.2 Additional Waivers.

(a) Without limiting the waivers in the foregoing paragraph, each Guarantor hereby further waives:

(i) any defense arising by reason of or deriving from (A) an election of remedies by the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Group members or (B) any election by the Administrative Agent and the Lender Group members under Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code to limit the amount of, or any collateral securing, its claim against such Guarantor, any other Credit Party or any other guarantor of the Obligations;

 

106


(ii) all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a guaranteed obligation, may have destroyed such Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against any other Credit Party or guarantor of the Obligations;

(iii) the benefits of any similar in any jurisdiction purporting to allow a guarantor to revoke a continuing guaranty with respect to any transactions occurring after the date of the guaranty; and

(iv) such Guarantor’s right, if any, to require the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Group members to institute suit against, or to exhaust any rights and remedies which the Administrative Agent and the other Lender Group members have or may have against any other Credit Party or guarantor of the Obligations or any third party, or against any collateral provided by any other guarantor of the Obligations, or any third party; and such Guarantor further waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense (other than the defense that the Obligations shall have been fully and finally performed and indefeasibly paid) of any other Credit Party or guarantor of the Obligations or by reason of the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of such other Credit Parties or guarantors in respect thereof.

Section 3.3 Special Provisions Applicable to New Guarantors. Pursuant to Section 6.12 of this Agreement, any new Domestic Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower may be required to enter into this Agreement as a Guarantor by executing and delivering to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Supplement. Upon the execution and delivery of a Joinder Supplement by such new Domestic Restricted Subsidiary, such new Domestic Restricted Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor and Credit Party hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor or Credit Party herein. The execution and delivery of any Joinder Supplement (or any joinder to any other applicable Loan Document) adding an additional Guarantor as a party to this Agreement (or any other applicable Loan Document) shall not require the consent of any other party hereto. The rights and obligations of each party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guarantor hereunder.

ARTICLE 5

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

The Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender Group that as of the Agreement Date:

Section 5.1 Organization; Powers. Each of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is (a) duly organized or incorporated, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent such concept exists in the relevant jurisdictions) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each Loan Document to which it is a party and (c) is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing in, every jurisdiction where such qualification is required, except in each case where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, would not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 5.2 Authorization; Enforceability. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Borrower and constitutes, and each other Loan Document to which any Credit Party is to be a

 

111

(b) Within 45 days (or such longer period as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as the Administrative Agent may reasonably agree) after the Borrower identifies any new Material Subsidiary pursuant to Section 6.4(b), all actions (if any) required to be taken with respect to such Subsidiary in order to satisfy the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement shall have been taken with respect to such Subsidiary, to the extent not already satisfied pursuant to Section 6.12(a).

Section 6.13 Further Assurances.

(a) Subject to the last paragraph of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”, the Borrower will, and will cause each Credit Party to, execute any and all further documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such further actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents), that may be required under any Applicable Law and that the Administrative Agent or the Majority Lenders may reasonably request, to cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be and remain satisfied, all at the expense of the Credit Parties.

(b) If, after the Agreement Date, any material assets (other than Excluded Assets), including any owned (but not leased or ground-leased) Material Real Property or improvements thereto or any interest therein, are acquired by the Borrower or any other Credit Party or are held by any Subsidiary on or after the time it becomes a Credit Party pursuant to Section 6.12 (other than assets constituting Collateral under a Security Document that become subject to the Lien created by such Security Document upon acquisition thereof or constituting Excluded Assets), the Borrower will notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Obligations and will take and cause the other Credit Parties to take, such actions as shall be necessary and reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, including actions described in paragraph (a) of this Section and as required pursuant to the “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement,” all at the expense of the Credit Parties and subject to the last paragraph of the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement.” In the event any Material Real Property is mortgaged pursuant to this Section 6.13(b), the Borrower or such other Credit Party, as applicable, shall be required to comply with the “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” and paragraph (a) of this Section 6.13 within 90 days following the acquisition of such Material Real Property or such longer time period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.

The designation of any Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary after the Agreement Date shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) investment therein. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and (ii) a return on any Investment by the Borrower in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiary’s (as applicable) Investment in such Subsidiary.

Section 6.16 Collateral Locations; Third Party Agreements. All tangible Collateral, other than Collateral in-transit, will at all times be kept by the Credit Parties at one or more Permitted Locations. The Credit Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, within sixty (60) days of the Agreement Date or within 60 days of signing any applicable lease thereafter (which period may be extended by the Administrative Agent), Third Party Agreements from all Persons owning or in control of the Credit Parties’ headquarters, each Permitted Location where material books and records of the Credit Parties are located, and all Permitted Locations where Inventory of the Borrower having a fair market value in excess of $250,000 is located.

If the Credit Parties fail to promptly pay any portion thereof when due, the Lenders may, at their option, but shall not be required to, make a Base Rate Advance for such purpose and pay the same directly to the appropriate Person. The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Lenders promptly therefor with interest accruing thereon daily at the Default Rate provided in this Agreement. All sums so paid or incurred by the Lenders for any of the foregoing and all reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, attorneys’ expenses, and court costs) which the Lenders may incur in enforcing or protecting the Lien on or rights and interest in the Collateral or any of their rights or remedies under this or any other agreement between the parties hereto or in respect of any of the transactions to be had hereunder until paid by the Borrower to the Lenders with interest at the Default Rate, shall be considered Obligations owing by the Borrower to the Lenders hereunder. Such Obligations shall be secured by all Collateral and by any and all other collateral, security, assets, reserves, or funds of the Credit Parties in or coming into the hands or inuring to the benefit of the Lenders. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any of the Collateral or for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in the custody thereof while any Collateral is in the Lenders’ (or any of their agents’ or bailees’) actual possession) or for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any warehouseman, carrier, forwarding agency, or other person whomsoever, but the same shall be at the Credit Parties’ sole risk.

Section 6.18 Assignments and Records of Accounts. If so requested by the Administrative Agent following an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, each Credit Party shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, formal written assignments of all of the Accounts daily, which shall include all Accounts that have been created since the date of the last assignment, together with copies of invoices or invoice registers related thereto. Each Credit Party shall keep accurate and complete (in all material respects) records of the Accounts and all payments and collections thereon.

The Administrative Agent has no duty to protect, insure, collect or realize upon the Accounts or preserve rights in them. Each Credit Party irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent as such Credit Party’s true and lawful attorney and agent-in-fact to endorse such Credit Party’s name on any checks, notes, drafts or other payments relating to, the Accounts which come into the Administrative Agent’s possession or under the Administrative Agent’s control as a result of its taking any of the foregoing actions. Additionally, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lender Group, shall have the right to collect and settle or adjust all disputes and claims directly with the Account Debtor and to compromise the amount or extend the time for payment of the Accounts upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable, and to charge the deficiencies, reasonable costs and expenses thereof, including attorney’s fees, to the Borrower.

(b) If an Account includes a charge for any tax payable to any governmental taxing authority, the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders is authorized, in its sole discretion, to pay the amount thereof to the proper taxing authority for the account of the applicable Credit Party and to make a Base Rate Advance to the Borrower to pay therefor. The Credit Parties shall notify the Administrative Agent if any Account includes any tax due to any governmental taxing authority and, in the absence of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to retain the full proceeds of the Account and shall not be liable for any taxes to any governmental taxing authority that may be due by any Credit Party by reason of the sale and delivery creating the Account.

(c) Whether or not a Default or Event of Default has occurred, any of the Administrative Agent’s officers, employees or agents shall have the right after prior notice to the Borrower (which notice shall not, however, be required if an Event of Default then exists), at any time or times hereafter, in the name of the Lenders, or any designee of the Lenders or the Credit Parties, to verify the validity, amount or other matter relating to any Accounts by mail, telephone, telegraph or otherwise. The Credit Parties shall cooperate fully with the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in an effort to facilitate and promptly conclude any such verification process.

(i) establish and thereafter maintain, pursuant to an arrangement reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, one or more Controlled Deposit Accounts wherein collections, deposits, and other payments with respect to (A) ABL First Lien Collateral, and (B) to the extent such collections, deposits and other payments are not deposited in a Term Loan Priority Account, Term Loan Collateral, are to be transferred, received or made (each, a “Collections Account”);

(ii) at all times direct all of their Account Debtors that make payments via wire transfer to direct all wire transfers to a Collections Account; and

(iii) in the event that any Credit Party shall at any time directly receive any remittances of any Accounts (including, without limitation, any checks, drafts, or other instruments), credit or merchant card collections, or other payments in respect of any Collateral or shall receive any other funds representing proceeds of the Collateral, promptly deposit the same into a Collections Account.

(d) During a Cash Dominion Period:

(i) The Administrative Agent shall have the right to notify any depositary bank with respect to any Collections Account or other Controlled Deposit Account that the Administrative Agent is exercising exclusive control with respect thereto and no Credit Party shall have any right to withdraw such amounts from any such Collections Account or Controlled Deposit Account. Each Credit Party hereby grants its power of attorney to SunTrust Bank (and each of its Affiliates providing the services

described in this Section 6.20) to indorse in such Credit Party’s name all tangible items of payment directed for deposit in a Controlled Deposit Account, Collections Account, or a lockbox and to submit such items for collection, with it being acknowledged and agreed that such power of attorney, being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until the full and final payment in cash and performance of all Obligations and the termination of the Commitments;

Section 9.3 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders, the Swing Bank and the Issuing Bank acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank 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 of the Lenders, the Swing Bank and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under or based on this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.4 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the Majority Lenders with respect to any action or actions (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such act unless and until it shall have received instructions from such Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Majority Lenders where required by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 9.5 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative 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 (including any electronic message, posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent may also 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 Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public 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 such counsel, accountants or experts.

Section 9.6 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The bank serving as the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent; and the terms “Lenders,” “Majority Lenders,” “Supermajority Lenders,” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The bank acting as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

 

161


Section 9.7 Successor Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to approval by the Borrower; provided that no Default or Event of Default shall exist at such time. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, subject to approval by the Borrower; provided that no Default or Event of Default shall exist at such time, which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or a bank which maintains an office in the United States.

(b) Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If, within 45 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation under this Section, no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 45th day (i) the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents and (iii) the Majority Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents until such time as the Majority Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and its representatives and agents in respect of any actions taken or not taken by any of them while it was serving as the Administrative Agent.

(c) In addition to the foregoing, if a Lender becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, and if any Default has arisen from a failure of the Borrower to comply with Section 2.17(b), then the Issuing Bank and the Swing Bank may, upon prior written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, resign as Issuing Bank or as Swing Bank, as the case may be, effective at the close of business Atlanta, Georgia time on a date specified in such notice (which date may not be less than five (5) Business Days after the date of such notice).

Section 9.8 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or any other jurisdiction asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses.

 

162


Section 9.9 The Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

(a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Credit Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or other Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.2) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

(b) Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 10.2.

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

Section 9.10 Authorization to Execute Other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute on behalf of all Lenders all Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Security Documents and any subordination agreements) other than this Agreement.

(ii) to release any Credit Party from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty and Security Documents if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary (or becomes an Excluded Subsidiary) as a result of a transaction or condition permitted hereunder or approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.12; and

(iii) to subordinate any Lien on any Collateral granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 7.2(d), (e), (h), (k), (l), (m), (r), (x) and (z) and clauses (c), (e) and (j) of the definition of “Permitted Encumbrances.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Majority Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Credit Party from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty or Security Documents pursuant to this Section. In each case as specified in this Section, the Administrative Agent is authorized, and, so long as no Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, will, at the Borrower’s expense, to execute and deliver to the applicable Credit Party such documents as such Credit Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral from the Liens granted under the applicable Security Documents, or to release such Credit Party from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty and Security Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to any member of the Lender Group for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

Section 9.12 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Security Documents,

 

164


it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Majority Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), 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 public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such sale or other disposition.

(iii) all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or any Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit (which shall be limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the fees, charges and disbursements of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and one counsel to the Lenders, taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel to all affected persons taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of one local counsel to the Administrative Agent and one local counsel to the Lenders, taken as a whole, in any relevant material jurisdiction to the Administrative Agent and Lenders and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional local counsel to all affected persons, taken as a whole).

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel (other than in-house counsel) for any Indemnitee), incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by any Borrower or any other Credit Party arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Bank Products Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, whether brought by a third party or by any Borrower or any other Credit Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (1) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from (a) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful

 

170


misconduct of such Indemnitee, or (b) any material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or (2) arise out of or result from any dispute among Indemnitees that does not involve or arise from an act or omission by any Credit Party or any of their respective Affiliates and is brought by an Indemintee against any other Indemnitee (other than (x) any claims against the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates in their respective capacities as the Administrative Agent, the Left Lead Arranger or any similar role unless such claim would otherwise be excluded pursuant to subclause (a) above). No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through Syndtrak, Intralinks or any other Internet or intranet website, except as a result of such Indemnitee’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment. The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of any Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which such Indemnitee is a party and indemnity has been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such indemnity. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 10.2(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, etc., arising with respect to a non-Tax claim.

(c) The Borrower shall pay, and hold the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each of the Lenders harmless from and against, any and all present and future stamp, documentary, and other similar taxes with respect to this Agreement and any other Loan Documents, any collateral described therein or any payments due thereunder, and save the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission to pay such taxes.

(d) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Bank under subsection (a), (b) or (c) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Bank, as the case may be, such Lender’s pro rata share (in accordance with its respective Aggregate Commitment Ratio as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swing Bank in its capacity as such.

(e) To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Indemnitee or Credit Party shall assert, and each Indemnitee and Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee or Credit Party, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof; provided, however, that nothing herein shall limit or otherwise impair any indemnification or reimbursement obligations of the Credit Parties in respect of any third-party claims alleging such special, indirect, punitive, exemplary or consequential damages.

 

171


(f) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly (and in any event with five (5) Business Days) after written demand therefor.

Section 10.3 Waivers. The rights and remedies of the Lender Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the Bank Products Documents shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which they would otherwise have. No failure or delay by the Lender Group, or any of them, or the Majority Lenders in exercising any right shall operate as a waiver of such right. The Lender Group expressly reserves the right to require strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement in connection with any funding of a request for an Advance. In the event the Lenders decide to fund a request for an Advance at a time when the Borrower is not in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement, such decision by the Lenders shall not be deemed to constitute an undertaking by the Lenders to fund any further requests for Advances or preclude the Lenders from exercising any rights available to the Lenders under the Loan Documents or at law or equity. Any waiver or indulgence granted by the Lenders or by the Majority Lenders shall not constitute a modification of this Agreement, except to the extent expressly provided in such waiver or indulgence, or constitute a course of dealing by the Lenders at variance with the terms of the Agreement such as to require further notice by the Lenders of the Lenders’ intent to require strict adherence to the terms of the Agreement in the future. Any such actions shall not in any way affect the ability of the Lenders, in their discretion, to exercise any rights available to them under this Agreement or under any other agreement, whether or not the Lenders are party, relating to the Borrower.

Section 10.4 Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Applicable Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, except to the extent limited by Applicable Law, at any time that an Event of Default exists, each member of the Lender Group and each subsequent holder of the Obligations is hereby authorized by the Credit Parties at any time or from time to time, without notice to the Credit Parties or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set-off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, in each case whether matured or unmatured, but not including any amounts held by any member of the Lender Group or any of its Affiliates in any escrow account) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by any member of the Lender Group or any such holder to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party, against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of the Credit Parties, to any member of the Lender Group or any such holder under this Agreement, any Revolving Loan Notes, any other Loan Document and any Bank Products Documents, including, but not limited to, all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement, any Revolving Loan Notes, any other Loan Document or any Bank Products Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) the Lender Group shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the Lender Group shall have declared the principal of and interest on the Loans and any Revolving Loan Notes and other amounts due hereunder to be due and payable as permitted by Section 8.2 and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of set-off, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.17 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the

 

172


benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of set-off. Any sums obtained by any member of the Lender Group or by any subsequent holder of the Obligations shall be subject to the application of payments provisions of Article 2.

Section 10.5 Assignment.

(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 no Credit Party may 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 any Credit Party without such consent 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 and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Affiliates of the Administrative Agent) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Any Lender (and any Lender that is an Issuing Bank) 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 Revolving Loan Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it and, if applicable, all or a portion of its portion of the Letter of Credit Commitment and excluding rights and obligations with respect to Bank Products Documents); provided that (i) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it, the aggregate amount of the portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent), shall not be less than $5,000,000, (ii) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund with respect to a Lender, any assignment shall require the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default exists, the Borrower (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided, however, that if the consent of the Borrower to an assignment or to an Eligible Assignee is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified in this Section), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent ten (10) days after the date notice thereof has been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) unless such consent is expressly refused by the Borrower prior to such tenth day, and (iii) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, and the Eligible Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, 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 Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering

 

173


all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.9, 10.2(b), 11.3 and 11.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 (d) of this Section.

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”) such that the obligations are in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall 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.

(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Revolving Loan Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower and the Lender Group shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (iv) in no event shall any Defaulting Lender, any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party be a Participant. 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, to the extent the Participant is adversely effected thereby, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to any extensions, postponements or delays of the Maturity Date or the scheduled date of payment of interest or principal or fees any reduction of principal (without a corresponding payment with respect thereto), or reduction in the rate of interest (other than a waiver in respect of application of the Default Rate) or fees due to the Lender hereunder or any other Loan Documents that adversely affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.9, 10.2(b) and 11.3 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 10.4 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.10(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”).

 

174


(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.18 or Section 11.3 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 that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.18 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 2.18 as though it were a Lender.

(f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including without limitation (i) any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank and (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a Fund, any pledge or assignment of all or any portion of such Lender’s rights under this Agreement to any holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Lender as security for such obligations or securities, or to any trustee for, or any other representative of, such holders, 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.

Section 10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such separate counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. In proving this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any judicial proceedings, it shall not be necessary to produce or account for more than one such counterpart signed by the party against whom such enforcement is sought. Any signatures delivered by a party by facsimile transmission or by e-mail transmission of an electronic file in Adobe Corporation’s Portable Document Format or PDF file shall be deemed an original signature hereto. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

Section 10.7 Under Seal; Governing Law. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are intended to take effect as sealed instruments and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof, except to the extent otherwise provided in the Loan Documents.

Section 10.8 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof in that jurisdiction or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.9 Headings. Headings used in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be used in connection with the interpretation of any provision hereof.

 

175


Section 10.10 Source of Funds. Notwithstanding the use by the Lenders of the Base Rate and the Eurodollar Rate as reference rates for the determination of interest on the Loans, the Lenders shall be under no obligation to obtain funds from any particular source in order to charge interest to the Borrower at interest rates tied to such reference rates.

Section 10.11 Entire Agreement. THIS WRITTEN AGREEMENT, TOGETHER WITH THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, REPRESENTS THE FINAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES AND MAY NOT BE CONTRADICTED BY EVIDENCE OF PRIOR, CONTEMPORANEOUS OR SUBSEQUENT ORAL AGREEMENTS OF THE PARTIES. THERE ARE NO UNWRITTEN ORAL AGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. Each Credit Party represents and warrants to the Lender Group that it has read the provisions of this Section 10.11 and discussed the provisions of this Section 10.11 and the rest of this Loan Agreement with counsel for such Credit Party, and such Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that the Lender Group is expressly relying upon such representations and warranties of such Credit Party (as well as the other representations and warranties of such Credit Party set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents) in entering into this Agreement.

Section 10.12 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between any Credit Party and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, 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 right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (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 the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time.

(b) No amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents (other than the Fee Letter), nor consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and the Majority Lenders, or the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Majority Lenders, and then such amendment, waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, in addition to the consent of the Majority Lenders, no amendment, waiver or consent shall:

 

176


(i) increase the Revolving Loan Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender;

(ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Letter of Credit Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or Letter of Credit Disbursement or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

(iv) change Sections 2.10 or 2.11 in a manner that would alter the allocation of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender;

(v) change any of the provisions of this subsection (b) or the definition of “Majority Lenders” or “Supermajority Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the consent of each Lender;

(vi) release of all or substantially all of the Collateral, release all or substantially all of the value of the Guaranties securing the Obligations, or contractually subordinate the payment of the Obligations to any other Indebtedness or the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral, in each case without the consent of each Lender; or

(vii) increase the advance rates set forth in, or otherwise change the definition of “Borrowing Base” (or any component definition thereof) in a manner that increases, or that would have the effect of increasing, borrowing availability hereunder, without the consent of the Supermajority Lenders; provided that the exercise by the Administrative Agent of any of its rights hereunder with respect to Reserves, Eligible Accounts, or Eligible Inventory shall not be deemed to be such an amendment;

provided, further, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Swing Bank or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such Person.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended, and amounts payable to such Lender hereunder may not be permanently reduced, without the consent of such Lender (other than reductions in fees and interest in which such reduction does not disproportionately affect such Lender). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so

 

177


amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Article 11 and Section 10.2), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and such Lender shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement. Any amendment, modification, waiver, consent, termination or release of any Bank Products Documents may be effected by the parties thereto without the consent of the Lender Group.

(c) Each Lender grants to the Administrative Agent the right to purchase all (but not less than all) of such Lender’s portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment, the Letter of Credit Commitment, the Loans and Letter of Credit Obligations owing to it and any Revolving Loan Notes held by it and all of its rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents at a price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and accrued but unpaid Unused Line Fee and letter of credit fees owing to such Lender plus the amount necessary to cash collateralize any Letters of Credit issued by such Lender, which right may be exercised by the Administrative Agent if such Lender for whatever reason fails to execute and deliver any amendment, waiver or consent which requires the written consent of all of the Lenders and to which the Majority Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower has agreed, within five (5) Business Days of the date the execution version thereof was delivered to such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if the Administrative Agent exercises its option hereunder, it shall promptly (but, in any event, within three (3) Business Days) execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance and other agreements and documentation necessary to effectuate such assignment. The Administrative Agent may assign its purchase rights hereunder to any assignee if such assignment complies with the requirements of Section 10.5(b).

(d) If any fees are paid to the Lenders as consideration for amendments, waivers or consents with respect to this Agreement, at Administrative Agent’s election, such fees may be paid only to those Lenders that agree to such amendments, waivers or consents within the time specified for submission thereof.

Section 10.13 Other Relationships. No relationship created hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall in any way affect the ability of any member of the Lender Group to enter into or maintain business relationships with the Borrower, or any of its Affiliates, beyond the relationships specifically contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.14 Pronouns. The pronouns used herein shall include, when appropriate, either gender and both singular and plural, and the grammatical construction of sentences shall conform thereto.

Section 10.15 Disclosure. The Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrower, shall have the right to issue press releases regarding the making of the Loans and issuance of Letters of Credit and the Revolving Loan Commitment to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

 

178


Section 10.16 Replacement of Lender. In the event that a Replacement Event occurs and is continuing with respect to any Lender, the Borrower may designate another financial institution (such financial institution being herein called a “Replacement Lender”) reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, and which is not the Borrower or an Affiliate of the Borrower, to assume such Lender’s Revolving Loan Commitment hereunder, to purchase the Loans and participations of such Lender and such Lender’s rights hereunder and (if such Lender is the Issuing Bank) to issue Letters of Credit in substitution for all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Lender, without recourse to or representation or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans payable to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and accrued but unpaid commitment fees and letter of credit fees owing to such Lender plus amounts necessary to cash collateralize any Letters of Credit issued by such Lender, and upon such assumption, purchase and substitution, and subject to the execution and delivery to the Administrative Agent by the Replacement Lender of documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (pursuant to which such Replacement Lender shall assume the obligations of such original Lender under this Agreement), the Replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights hereunder; provided that the obligations of the Borrower to indemnify such Lender with respect to any event occurring or obligations arising before such replacement shall survive such replacement. The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably appointed as attorney-in-fact to execute any such documentation on behalf of any Replacement Lender if such Replacement Lender fails to execute same within five (5) Business Days after being presented with such documentation. “Replacement Event” shall mean, with respect to any Lender, (a) the commencement of or the taking of possession by, a receiver, custodian, conservator, trustee or liquidator of such Lender, or the declaration by the appropriate regulatory authority that such Lender is insolvent; (b) the making of any claim by any Lender under Sections 2.18, 11.2, 11.3 or 11.5, unless the changing of the lending office by such Lender would obviate the need of such Lender to make future claims under such Sections; (c) such Lender’s becoming a Defaulting Lender; or (d) such Lender refuses to consent to a proposed amendment, modification, waiver or other action requiring consent of the holders of 100% of the Revolving Loan Commitment or 100% of the affected Lenders under Section 10.12 that is consented to by the Majority Lenders prior to the replacement of any such Lenders in connection therewith.

Section 10.17 Confidentiality; Material Non-Public Information; Publicity.

(a) No member of the Lender Group shall disclose any material non-public confidential information received from the Credit Parties or their representatives (“MNPI”) regarding the Credit Parties to any other Person without the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), other than (i) to such member of the Lender Group’s Affiliates and their officers, directors, employees, agents and advisors, to other members of the Lender Group and, as contemplated by Section 11.5, to actual or prospective assignees and participants, and then only on a confidential basis, (ii) as required by any law, rule or regulation or judicial process, (iii) to any rating agency when required by it; provided that, prior to any such disclosure, such rating agency shall be advised of the confidential nature of the information relating to the Credit Parties received by it from such member of the Lender Group,

 

179


(iv) as requested or required by any state, Federal or foreign authority or examiner regulating banks or banking, and (v) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder.

(b) The Credit Parties hereby agree that if either they, any parent company or any Subsidiary of the Credit Parties has publicly traded equity or debt securities in the U.S., they shall (and shall cause such parent company or Subsidiary, as the case may be, to) (i) identify in writing, and (ii) to the extent reasonably practicable, clearly and conspicuously mark all reports, notices, communications and other information or materials provided or delivered by, or on behalf of, the Credit Parties hereunder (collectively, the “Borrower Materials”) that contain only information that is publicly available or that is not material for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws as “PUBLIC.” The Credit Parties agree that by identifying such Borrower Materials as “PUBLIC” or publicly filing such Borrower Materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission, then Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank, and the Swing Bank shall be entitled to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any MNPI for purposes of U.S. federal and state securities laws. The Credit Parties further represent, warrant, acknowledge and agree that the following documents and materials shall be deemed to be PUBLIC, whether or not so marked, and do not contain any MNPI: (A) the Loan Documents, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, (B) administrative materials of a customary nature prepared by the Credit Parties or Administrative Agent (including, Request for Advance, Notices of Conversion/Continuation, Request for Issuance of Letter of Credit, Swing Loan requests and any similar requests or notices), and (C) information which has been filed by the Credit Parties with the Securities and Exchange Commission or publicly disclosed by the Credit Parties. Before distribution of any Borrower Materials, the Credit Parties agree to execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a letter authorizing distribution of the evaluation materials to prospective Lenders and their employees willing to receive MNPI, and a separate letter authorizing distribution of evaluation materials that do not contain MNPI and represent that no MNPI is contained therein.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be permitted to use information related to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in connection with marketing, press releases or other transactional announcements or updates provided to investor or trade publications, including, but not limited to, the placement of “tombstone” advertisements in publications of their choice at their own expense.

Section 10.18 Revival and Reinstatement of Obligations. If the incurrence or payment of the Obligations by any Borrower or any other Credit Party, or the transfer to the Lender Group of any property, should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or voidable under any state or Federal law relating to creditors’ rights, including provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances, preferences or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of property (collectively, a “Voidable Transfer”), and if the Lender Group, or any of them, is required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer, or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Lender Group, or any of them, is required or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses and attorney’s fees of the Lender Group related thereto, the liability of such Borrower or such other Credit Party, as applicable, automatically shall be revived, reinstated and restored and shall exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

 

180


Section 10.19 Contribution Obligations.

(a) If any Credit Party makes a payment of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Credit Party is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Credit Party, exceeds the amount that such Credit Party would otherwise have paid if each Credit Party had paid the aggregate obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Credit Party’s allocable amount bore to the total allocable amounts of all Credit Parties, then such Credit Party shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Credit Party for the amount of such excess, ratably based on their respective allocable amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any Credit Party shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Credit Party under this Agreement without rendering such payment voidable under section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(b) Each Credit Party hereby subordinates any claims, including any right of payment, subrogation, contribution (including rights of contribution pursuant to Section 10.19(a)) and indemnity, that it may have from or against any other Credit Party, and any successor or assign of any other Credit Party, including any trustee, receiver or debtor-in-possession, howsoever arising, due or owing or whether heretofore, now or hereafter existing, to the prior payment in full of all of the Obligations in cash and termination of all Commitments; provided that, unless an Event of Default shall then exist, the foregoing shall not prevent or prohibit the repayment of intercompany accounts and loans among the Credit Parties in the ordinary course of business.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein or in any other of the Loan Documents, to the extent the joint obligations of any Credit Party shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason (including, without limitation, because of any applicable state or Federal law relating to fraudulent conveyances or transfers) then the obligations of each Credit Party hereunder shall be limited to the maximum amount that is permissible under Applicable Law (whether Federal or state and including, without limitation, the Bankruptcy Code), after taking into account, among other things, such Credit Party’s right of contribution and indemnification from each other Credit Party under this Agreement or Applicable Law.

(d) The provisions of this Section 10.19 are made for the benefit of the Lenders and their respective successors and permitted assigns, and may be enforced by any such Person from time to time against any of the Credit Parties as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the part of any Lender first to marshal any of its claims or to exercise any of its rights against any of the other Credit Parties or to exhaust any remedies available to it against any of the other Credit Parties or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining

 

181


payment of any of the Obligations or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of this Section 10.19 shall remain in effect until the payment in full of all of the Obligations in cash and termination of all Commitments. If at any time, any payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Credit Parties, or otherwise, the provisions of this Section 10.19 will forthwith be reinstated in effect, as though such payment had not been made.

Section 10.20 No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated hereby (including in connection with any amendment, waiver or other modification hereof or of any other Loan Document), each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that: (a) (i) the arranging and other services regarding this Agreement provided by the Lender Group members are arm’s-length commercial transactions between such Credit Party and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Lender Group members, on the other hand, (ii) such Credit Party has consulted its own legal, accounting, regulatory, and tax advisors to the extent it has deemed appropriate, and (iii) such Credit Party is capable of evaluating, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks, and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (b) (i) each of the Lender Group members is and has been acting solely as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent, or fiduciary for any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates, or any other Person and (B) no Lender Group member has any obligation to any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents; and (c) each of the Lender Group members and their respective Affiliates may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of such Credit Party and its Affiliates, and no Lender Group member has any obligation to disclose any of such interests to such Credit Party or its Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by law, each Credit Party hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against each of the Lender Group members with respect to any breach or alleged breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any aspect of any transaction contemplated hereby.

Section 10.21 Survival. The provisions of Sections 10.2, Article 9 and Article 11 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 Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 10.22 Judgment Currency. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Credit Party hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the “specified currency”) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agent’s main office on the Business Day preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of each Credit Party in respect of any sum due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder shall, notwithstanding any

 

182


judgment in a currency other than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency, each Credit Party agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, in the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.10, such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, agrees to remit such excess to such Credit Party.

Section 10.23 Qualified ECP Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Credit Party to honor all of such Credit Party’s obligations under its Guaranty hereunder in respect of Hedge Obligations; provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 10.23 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 10.23 or otherwise under its Guaranty hereunder, as it relates to such other Credit Party, voidable under Applicable Law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 10.23 shall remain in full force and effect until termination of all Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and Bank Products Obligations) and the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit (other than any Letter of Credit for which the Letter of Credit Obligations have been Cash Collateralized or as to which other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank shall have been made). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 10.23 constitute, and this Section 10.23 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Credit Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 10.24 Designated Senior Debt. Each party acknowledges and agrees that the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents is “Designated Senior Debt” (or any similar term) under, and as defined in, each of the Term Loan Facility Credit Agreement, any refinancing thereof, any other indenture and any other Indebtedness which is subordinated to the Obligations.

Section 10.25 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of EEA Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any EEA Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of an EEA Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

 

183


(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by an EEA Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an EEA Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such EEA Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any EEA Resolution Authority.

Section 10.26 USA Patriot Act Notification. The following notification is provided to Borrower pursuant to Section 326 of the USA Patriot Act:

Each of the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby notifies Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies Borrower, which information includes the name and address of Borrower and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lender to indentify Borrower in accordance with the USA Patriot Act. Borrower will, and will cause its Subsidiaries to, provide such information and take such actions as are reasonably requested by Administrative Agent or any Lender in order to assist Administrative Agent or any Lender in maintaining compliance with the USA Patriot Act.

ARTICLE 11

YIELD PROTECTION

Section 11.1 Interest Rate Basis Determination. Notwithstanding anything contained herein which may be construed to the contrary, if with respect to any proposed Eurodollar Advance for any Interest Period, the Administrative Agent determines that deposits in U.S. Dollars (in the applicable amount) are not being offered to leading banks in the London interbank market for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such situation no longer exist, the obligations of the Lenders to make Eurodollar Advances shall be suspended.

 

184


Section 11.2 Illegality. If any Change in Law shall make it unlawful or impossible for any Lender to make, maintain, or fund its Eurodollar Advances, such Lender shall so notify the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall forthwith give notice thereof to the other Lenders and the Borrower. Before giving any notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 11.2, such Lender shall designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. Upon receipt of such notice, notwithstanding anything contained in Article 2, the Borrower shall repay in full the then outstanding principal amount of each affected Eurodollar Advance of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon, either (a) on the last day of the then current Interest Period applicable to such Advance if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain and fund such Advance to such day or (b) immediately if such Lender may not lawfully continue to fund and maintain such Advance to such day. Concurrently with repaying each affected Eurodollar Advance of such Lender, notwithstanding anything contained in Article 2, the Borrower shall borrow a Base Rate Advance from such Lender, and such Lender shall make such Advance in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans immediately prior to such repayment.

Section 11.3 Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law:

(i) Shall subject any Lender to any Tax, duty, or other charge with respect to its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to any Lender of the principal of or interest on its Eurodollar Advances or in respect of any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of its Eurodollar Advances or its obligation to make Eurodollar Advances (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender, Excluded Taxes and Indemnified Taxes);

(ii) Shall impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, but excluding any included in an applicable Eurodollar Reserve Percentage), special deposit, assessment, or other requirement or condition against assets of, deposits (other than as described in Section 11.5) with or for the account of, or commitments or credit extended by any Lender, or shall impose on any Lender or the eurodollar interbank borrowing market any other condition affecting its obligation to make such Eurodollar Advances or its Eurodollar Advances; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any such Eurodollar Advances or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Lender under this Agreement or under any Revolving Loan Notes with respect thereto, and such increase is not given effect in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate;

 

185


(iii) Shall subject the Issuing Bank or any Lender to any tax, duty or other charge with respect to the obligation to issue Letters of Credit, maintain Letters of Credit or participate in Letters of Credit, or shall change the basis of taxation of payments to the Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of amounts drawn under Letters of Credit or in respect of any other amounts due under this Agreement in respect of Letters of Credit or the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue Letters of Credit or maintain Letters of Credit or the obligation of the Lenders to participate in Letters of Credit (except for changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of the Issuing Bank or any Lender, Excluded Taxes and Indemnified Taxes); or

(iv) Shall impose, modify, or deem applicable any reserve (including, without limitation, any imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System), special deposit, assessment, or other requirement or condition against assets of, deposits (other than as described in Section 11.5) with or for the account of, or commitments or credit extended by the Issuing Bank, or shall impose on the Issuing Bank or any Lender any other condition affecting the obligation to issue Letters of Credit, maintain Letters of Credit or participate in Letters of Credit; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Issuing Bank or any Lender of issuing, maintaining or participating in any such Letters of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Issuing Bank or any Lender under this Agreement with respect thereto,

then promptly upon demand, which demand shall be accompanied by the certificate described in Section 11.3(b), by such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Borrower agrees to pay, without duplication of amounts due under Section 2.18, to such Lender or Issuing Bank such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank for such increased costs. Each Lender or Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of any event of which it has knowledge, occurring after the date hereof, which will entitle such Lender or the Issuing Bank to compensation pursuant to this Section 11.3 and will designate a different lending office if such designation will avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such compensation and will not, in the sole judgment of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender or the Issuing Bank.

(b) A certificate of any Lender or the Issuing Bank claiming compensation under this Section 11.3 and setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder and calculations therefor shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Lender or the Issuing Bank may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods. If any Lender demands compensation under this Section 11.3, the Borrower may at any time, upon at least three (3) Business Days prior notice to such Lender, prepay in full the then outstanding affected Eurodollar Advances of such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon to the date of prepayment, along with any reimbursement required under Section 2.9. Concurrently with prepaying any such Eurodollar Advances, the Borrower shall borrow a Base Rate Advance, or a Eurodollar Advance not so affected, from such Lender, and such Lender shall make such Advance in an amount such that the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by such Lender shall equal the outstanding principal amount of such Revolving Loans immediately prior to such prepayment.

(c) The Issuing Bank and each Lender shall endeavor to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement entitling the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, to compensation under this Section 11.3 within one hundred eighty

 

186


(180) days after the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that if the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, fails to give such notice within one hundred eighty (180) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 11.3 in respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section 11.3 for costs incurred from and after the date one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, gives such notice.

Section 11.4 Effect On Other Advances. If notice has been given pursuant to Sections 11.1, 11.2 or 11.3 suspending the obligation of any Lender to make any, or requiring Eurodollar Advances of any Lender to be repaid or prepaid, then, unless and until such Lender (or, in the case of Section 11.1, the Administrative Agent) notifies the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such repayment no longer apply, all Advances which would otherwise be made by such Lender as to the Eurodollar Advances affected shall, at the option of the Borrower, be made instead as Base Rate Advances.

Section 11.5 Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or Issuing Bank (or any Affiliate of the foregoing) shall have reasonably determined that a Change in Law has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (or any Affiliate of the foregoing) capital as a consequence of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s portion of the Revolving Loan Commitment or obligations hereunder to a level below that which it could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (or any Affiliate of the foregoing) policies with respect to capital adequacy immediately before such Change in Law and assuming that such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (or any Affiliate of the foregoing) capital was fully utilized prior to such adoption, change or compliance), then, promptly upon demand, which demand shall be accompanied by the certificate described in the last sentence of this Section 11.5, by such Lender or Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall immediately pay to such Lender or Issuing Bank such additional amounts as shall be sufficient to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank for any such reduction actually suffered; provided, however, that there shall be no duplication of amounts paid to a Lender pursuant to this sentence and Section 11.3. A certificate of such Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount to be paid to such Lender or Issuing Bank by the Borrower as a result of any event referred to in this paragraph shall, absent manifest error, be conclusive. The Issuing Bank and each Lender shall endeavor to notify the Borrower of any event occurring after the date of this Agreement entitling the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, to compensation under this Section 11.5 within one hundred eighty (180) days after the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, obtains actual knowledge thereof; provided that if the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, fails to give such notice within one hundred eighty (180) days after it obtains actual knowledge of such an event, the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, shall, with respect to compensation payable pursuant to this Section 11.5 in respect of any costs resulting from such event, only be entitled to payment under this Section 11.5 for costs incurred from and after the date one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that the Issuing Bank or such Lender, as the case may be, gives such notice.

 

187

FORM OF REVOLVING LOAN NOTE

 

US $______________    [DATE]

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, the undersigned, INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), hereby promises to pay to the order of [                        ] (hereinafter, together with its successors and permitted assigns, the “Lender”), at the office of the Administrative Agent (as defined below), in immediately available funds, the principal sum of [                                              and         ]/100 DOLLARS ($[                        ]) of United States funds, or, if less, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Loans advanced by the Lender to the Borrower under the Credit Agreement (as defined below), plus interest as hereinafter provided, in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

This Revolving Loan Note (this “Note”) is one of the Revolving Loan Notes referred to in that certain Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, the Persons party thereto from time to time as Guarantors, the financial institutions party thereto from time to time as Lenders (the “Lenders”), and SunTrust Bank, as the Administrative Agent (together with its successors and assigns in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). All capitalized terms used herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement except to the extent such capitalized terms are otherwise defined herein.

All principal amounts and other Obligations then outstanding shall be due and payable in full on the Maturity Date, or such earlier date as the Revolving Loans shall be due and payable in full, in cash, whether by acceleration or otherwise, pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The principal outstanding hereunder is also subject to repayment and prepayment from time to time as provided in the Credit Agreement.

The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and re-borrow funds hereunder pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. Prepayment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loan may be made only as provided in the Credit Agreement.

The Borrower hereby promises to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount hereof at the rates and at such times and in such manner as are provided under the Credit Agreement.

In no event shall the amount of interest and other charges for the use of money payable hereunder exceed the maximum amounts permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a final determination, deem applicable. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if the amount of such interest and other charges for the use of money payable hereunder or manner of payment exceeds the maximum amount allowable under Applicable Law, then, ipso facto as of the Agreement Date, the Borrower is and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and payment received from the Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever received, shall be applied first, to reduce

 

H-1


the principal balance of the Loans in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and second, returned to the Borrower, to the extent of such excess. It is the express intent hereof that the Borrower not pay, and the Lender not receive, directly or indirectly, in any manner whatsoever, interest in excess of that which may legally be paid by the Borrower under Applicable Law.

All parties now or hereafter liable with respect to this Note, whether any Borrower, any Guarantor, endorser or any other Person, hereby waive any presentment for payment, demand, notice of non-payment or dishonor, protest and notice of protest whatsoever.

No failure or delay on the part of the Lender or any holder hereof in exercising any right under this Note shall operate as a waiver of such right. Any waiver or indulgence granted by the Lenders or by the Majority Lenders shall not constitute a modification of the Credit Agreement, except to the extent expressly provided in such waiver or indulgence, or constitute a course of dealing by the Lenders at variance with the terms of the Credit Agreement such as to require further notice by the Lenders of the Lenders’ intent to require strict adherence to the terms of the Credit Agreement in the future. Any such actions shall not in any way affect the ability of the Lenders, in their discretion, to exercise any rights available to them under the Credit Agreement or under any other agreement, whether or not the Lenders are party, relating to the Borrower.

The Borrower hereby promises to pay the costs of collection, including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees, should this Note be collected by or through an attorney at law or under advice therefrom to the extent set forth in the Credit Agreement.

Time is of the essence in this Note.

This Note evidences the Lender’s portion of the Revolving Loans under, and is entitled to the benefits and subject to the terms of, the Credit Agreement, which contains provisions with respect to the acceleration of the maturity of this Note upon the happening of certain stated events, and provisions for prepayment and repayment. This Note is secured by and is also entitled to the benefits of the Loan Documents to the extent provided therein and any other agreement or instrument providing collateral for the Revolving Loans, whether now or hereafter in existence, and any filings, instruments, agreements and documents relating thereto and providing collateral for the Revolving Loans.

This Note may not be transferred or assigned or pledged except pursuant to and in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.5 of the Credit Agreement.

This Note is subject to the terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement, which are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

This Note shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York, without regard to the conflict of laws principles thereof.

FORM OF INTERCOMPANY NOTE

Dated:

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the Borrower and such of its Subsidiaries (collectively, the “Group Members” and each, a “Group Member”) that is a party to this global intercompany note (the “Global Intercompany Note”), in case it owes any Indebtedness from time to time to any other Group Member, promises to pay to the order of such other Group Member as may make loans to such Group Member (each Group Member that owes Indebtedness to another Group Member as evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note being referred to hereinafter as a “Payor” and each Group Member that is owed Indebtedness by any other Group Member as evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note being referred to hereinafter as a “Payee”), on demand, in lawful money of the United States of America, in immediately available funds and at the appropriate office of the Payee, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances heretofore and hereafter made by such Payee to such Payor and any other indebtedness now or hereafter owing by such Payor to such Payee as shown in the books and records of such Payee. The failure to show any such Indebtedness or any error in showing such Indebtedness shall not affect the obligations of any Payor hereunder. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given such terms in the Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), among Installed Building Products, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each lender from time to time thereto (the “Term Lenders”), and Royal Bank of Canada, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Term Loan Administrative Agent”), or the ABL Credit Agreement dated as of April 13, 2017 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “ABL Credit Agreement” and, together with the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), by and among the Borrower, each lender from time to time party thereto (the “ABL Lenders” and together with the Term Lenders, the “Lenders”) and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “ABL Administrative Agent” and, together with the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the “Administrative Agents”), as applicable.

The unpaid principal amount hereof from time to time outstanding shall bear interest at a rate equal to the rate as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Interest shall be due and payable on demand or at such other times as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee. Upon demand for payment of any principal amount hereof, accrued but unpaid interest on such principal amount shall also be due and payable unless otherwise agreed to in writing by such Payor and Payee. Interest shall be paid in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be computed as may be agreed upon in writing from time to time by the relevant Payor and Payee.

 

I-1


With respect to any Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below), upon the commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency or liquidation or similar proceeding of any jurisdiction relating to the applicable Payor, in each case to the extent constituting an Event of Default under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Term Loan Credit Agreement or Section 8.1(g) or 8.1(h) of the ABL Credit Agreement, then (x) the Termination Date shall have occurred shall have occurred under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, and, under the ABL Credit Agreement, all Commitments shall have expired or been terminated and all Obligations shall have been paid in full in cash (other than Bank Products Obligations not yet due and payable and indemnification and other contingent obligations not yet accrued and payable) (such date when all such events have occurred under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement being herein referred to as the “Combined Termination Date”), before any applicable Payee is entitled to receive (whether directly or indirectly), or make any demands for, any payment on account of this Global Intercompany Note and (y) until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred, any payment or distribution to which such Payee would otherwise be entitled (other than debt securities of such Payor that are subordinated, to at least the same extent as this Global Intercompany Note, to the payment of all Senior Obligations (as defined below) then outstanding (such securities being hereinafter referred to as “Restructured Debt Securities”)) shall be made to the Administrative Agents for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each of the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the ABL Credit Agreement (subject to the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement). No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Global Intercompany Note, to the extent evidencing Indebtedness owed to a Payee that is a Loan Party, has been pledged by each such Payee to either the Term Loan Administrative Agent or the ABL Administrative Agent, as applicable (the “Applicable Agent”), for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each Credit Agreement (subject to the Intercreditor Agreement), as security for such Payee’s Obligations, if any, under the Credit Agreements, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreements and the other Loan Documents to which such Payee is a party. Each applicable Payor acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agents on behalf of the Secured Parties may exercise all the rights of such Payee under this Global Intercompany Note and will not be subject to any abatement, reduction, recoupment, defense, setoff or counterclaim available to such Payor. To the fullest extent permitted by law, no present or future Secured Party shall be prejudiced in its right to enforce the subordination of this Global Intercompany Note by any act or failure to act on the part of any Payor or by any act or failure to act on the part of such Secured Party or any trustee or agent therefor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Global Intercompany Note, each Payee agrees that any and all Indebtedness evidenced by this Global Intercompany Note owed by a Payor that is a Loan Party (the “Subordinated Indebtedness”) shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the Secured Obligations (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) and the Obligations (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) (collectively, the “Senior Obligations”) until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred; provided, that each such Payor may make payments to the applicable Payee so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and provided, further, that all loans and advances made by such Payee pursuant to this Global Intercompany Note shall be received by the applicable Payor subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreements. Notwithstanding any right of any Payee to

 

I-2


ask, demand, sue for, take or receive any payment from any applicable Payor that is a Loan Party, all rights, Liens and security interests of such Payee, whether now or hereafter arising and howsoever existing, in any assets of any such Payor (whether constituting part of the security or collateral given to the Administrative Agents or any Secured Party to secure payment of all or any part of the Senior Obligations or otherwise) shall be and hereby are subordinated to the rights of the Term Loan Administrative Agent, the ABL Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in such assets. Except as expressly permitted by the Credit Agreements, the applicable Payees shall have no right to possession of any such asset or to foreclose upon, or exercise any other remedy in respect of, any such asset, whether by judicial action or otherwise, unless and until the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing with respect to any Senior Obligations and upon notice from the Applicable Agent, then until the earlier to occur of (x) the Combined Termination Date and (y) the date on which such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived, no payment or distribution of any kind or character shall be made by any Payor that is a Loan Party to any Payee with respect to any Subordinated Indebtedness.

Subject to the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement, if any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash, securities or other property (other than Restructured Debt Securities), in respect of any Subordinated Indebtedness shall (despite these subordination provisions) be received by any Payee before the Combined Termination Date shall have occurred, such payment or distribution shall be held in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid over or delivered to, the Applicable Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties under each Credit Agreement, ratably according to the respective aggregate amount remaining unpaid thereon, to the extent necessary to pay all Senior Obligations in full in cash.

Each Payor hereby waives presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in connection with this Note. All payments under this Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document or in any such promissory note or other instrument, this Promissory Note (i) replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on or before the date hereof by any Group Member to any other Group Member and (ii) shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Group Member to any other Group Member.

THIS GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS GLOBAL INTERCOMPANY NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS THAT WOULD RESULT IN THE APPLICATION OF ANY LAW OTHER THAN THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

Each reference to a Guarantor and Credit Party as applicable in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document shall be deemed to include the New Credit Party. The terms and provisions of the Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

(a) The Junior Representative and each other Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agree that, in the event of a sale, transfer or other disposition of Senior Secured Obligations Collateral or any such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral becoming Excluded Collateral under the ABL Debt Documents or Term Loan Documents, in each case subject to any Junior Lien (regardless of whether or not an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing under the Junior Documents at the time of such sale, transfer or other disposition or any such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral becoming Excluded Collateral under the ABL Debt Documents or Term Loan Documents), such Junior Lien on such Collateral shall terminate and be released automatically and without further action if the applicable Senior Liens on such Collateral are released and if such sale, transfer or other disposition either (A) is then not prohibited by the Junior Documents (either pursuant to the terms of the Junior Documents or pursuant to a consent issued thereunder) or (B) occurs in connection with the foreclosure upon or other exercise of rights and remedies with respect to such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral (including, if the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral is ABL First Lien Collateral, in connection with any liquidation of ABL Facility Collateral consented to by the ABL Agent); provided that such Junior Lien shall remain in place with respect to any proceeds of a sale, transfer or other disposition under this clause (a) that remain after the associated Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, the Junior Representative and each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agree that, with respect to any property or assets that would otherwise constitute Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, the requirement that a Junior Lien attach to, or be perfected with respect to, such property or assets shall be waived automatically and without further action so long as the requirement that a Senior Lien attach to, or be perfected with respect to, such property or assets is waived by the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties (or the Senior Representative) in accordance with the Senior Documents and so long as no Event of Default under the Junior Documents shall have occurred, be continuing or would result therefrom at such time.

(ii) If any Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, and the Term Loan Agent or the Term Loan Secured Parties shall seek to provide any Grantor with, or consent to a third party providing, any financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or consent to any order for the use of cash collateral constituting Term Loan First Priority Collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (each, a “Term Loan DIP Financing”), with such Term Loan DIP Financing to be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral (the “Term Loan DIP Financing Liens”) (including assets that, but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code, would be Collateral) (it being agreed that the Term Loan Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties shall not propose any Term Loan DIP Financing secured by the ABL First Lien Collateral in competition with the ABL Secured Parties without the consent of the ABL Agent), then each of the ABL Secured Parties agrees that it will raise no objection and will not support any objection to such Term Loan DIP Financing or use of cash collateral or to the Term Loan DIP Financing Liens on the grounds of a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of the ABL Secured Parties securing the ABL Debt Obligations or on any other grounds (and will not request any adequate protection solely as a result of such Term Loan DIP Financing or use of cash collateral

 

-22-


that is Term Loan First Priority Collateral except as permitted by Section 2.06(d)), so long as: (A) the ABL Secured Parties retain their Lien on the Collateral to secure the ABL Debt Obligations owed to each of the Term Loan Secured Parties (in each case, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) and, as to the ABL First Lien Collateral only, such Lien has the same priority as existed prior to the commencement of such Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and any Term Loan DIP Financing Lien on the ABL First Lien Collateral is junior and subordinate to the Lien of the ABL Secured Parties on the ABL First Lien Collateral; (B) all Liens on Term Loan First Priority Collateral securing any such Term Loan DIP Financing shall be senior to or pari passu with the Liens of the Term Loan Agent and the Term Loan Secured Parties securing the Term Loan Obligations on Term Loan First Priority Collateral; (C) the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loan DIP Financing, together with the aggregate outstanding amount of pre-petition Term Loan Debt Obligations then outstanding, does not exceed the Maximum Term Loan Amount; and (D) the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.06(b)(ii) shall not prevent the ABL Secured Parties from objecting to any provision in any Term Loan DIP Financing relating to any provision or content of a plan of reorganization or other plan of similar effect under any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(c) Each Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party agrees that it will not object to or oppose (i) a sale or other disposition of any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral (or any portion thereof) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any other provision of the Bankruptcy Code if the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties shall have consented to such sale or disposition of such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral and all Senior Liens and Junior Liens will attach to the proceeds of the sale or other disposition with the same priorities set forth herein or (ii) any lawful exercise by any holder of claims in respect of any Senior Secured Obligations of the right to credit bid such claims under Section 363(k) of the Bankruptcy Code or any other applicable provision of the Bankruptcy Code or in any sale in foreclosure of Collateral that is Senior Secured Obligations Collateral with respect to such claims.

In addition, the ABL Agent, for itself and on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, may seek adequate protection of its junior interest in the Term Loan First Lien Collateral in the form of an additional or replacement Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim, subject to the provisions of this Agreement; provided that

 

-23-


each Term Loan Agent is also granted adequate protection in the same form that is granted to the ABL Agent, which additional or replacement Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral or superpriority administrative claim (as applicable) is senior to that granted to the ABL Agent in respect of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral. Such Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or superpriority administrative claim, if granted to the ABL Agent, will be subordinated to the adequate protection Liens and/or superpriority administrative claims (as applicable) granted in favor of each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent on such post-petition assets, and, if applicable, to the DIP Financing Liens of each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent or any other Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party on such post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

If the ABL Agent or any ABL Secured Party receives as adequate protection a Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the ABL First Lien Collateral, then such post-petition assets shall also constitute ABL First Lien Collateral to the extent of any allowed claim of the ABL Secured Parties secured by such adequate protection Lien and shall be subject to this Agreement.

(ii) No ABL Secured Party shall oppose (or support the opposition of any other Person) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding to (A) any motion or other request by any Term Loan Secured Party for adequate protection of any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent’s Liens upon any of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral, including any claim of any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party to post-petition interest, fees, or expenses as a result of any Pari Term Loan Debt Liens on the Term Loan First Lien Collateral (so long as any post-petition interest, fees, or expenses paid as a result thereof are not paid from the proceeds of ABL First Lien Collateral), a request for the application of proceeds of Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations, and request for additional or replacement Liens on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim or (B) any objection by any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on such Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection, with respect to any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent’s Liens in the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

-24-


replacement Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim, subject to the provisions of this Agreement; provided, that the ABL Agent is also granted adequate protection in the same form that is granted to the applicable Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, which additional or replacement Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral and/or superpriority administrative claim (as applicable) granted in favor of the ABL Agent is senior to that granted to the applicable Pari Term Loan Debt Agent in respect of the ABL First Lien Collateral. Such Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the ABL First Lien Collateral and/or superpriority administrative claim, if granted to any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, will be subordinated to the adequate protection Liens and/or superpriority administrative claims (as applicable) granted in favor of the ABL Agent on such post-petition assets, and, if applicable, to the DIP Financing Liens of the ABL Agent or any other ABL Secured Party on such post-petition assets of the same type as the ABL First Lien Collateral. If any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, for itself and on behalf of any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties, seeks or requires (or is otherwise granted) adequate protection of its junior interest in the ABL First Lien Collateral in the form of an additional or replacement Lien on the post-petition assets of the same type as the ABL First Lien Collateral and/or a superpriority administrative claim, then such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, for itself and the applicable Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties, agrees that the ABL Agent shall also be granted an additional or replacement Lien on such post-petition assets and/or a superpriority administrative claim as adequate protection of its senior interest in the ABL First Lien Collateral and that such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent’s additional or replacement Lien on such post-petition assets of the same type as the ABL First Lien Collateral and/or superpriority administrative claim shall be subordinated to the additional or replacement Lien and/or superpriority administrative claim of the ABL Agent on the same basis as the Liens of such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent on and claims with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral are subordinated to the Liens of the ABL Agent on and claims with respect to the ABL First Lien Collateral under this Agreement. If any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party receives as adequate protection a Lien on post-petition assets of the same type as the Term Loan First Lien Collateral, then such post-petition assets shall also constitute Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the extent of any allowed claim of the applicable Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties secured by such adequate protection Lien and shall be subject to this Agreement.

(e) Each of the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties waives any claim such Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party may now or hereafter have against the Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party (or their representatives) arising out of any election by the Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code with respect to such party’s Senior Secured Obligations Collateral.

(f) Prior to any Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations and any DIP Financing provided by the Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties, no Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party shall seek relief from the automatic stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding with respect to any Senior Secured Obligations Collateral unless

 

-25-


(i) otherwise consented to by the Senior Representative or (ii) the Senior Representative or Senior Secured Obligations Secured Parties shall seek relief from the automatic stay with respect to such Collateral to commence a lien enforcement action with respect to such Senior Secured Obligations Collateral. No Junior Secured Obligations Secured Party will object to or otherwise contest: any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of the Senior Secured Obligations and the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral made by the Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party (or their representatives).

(g) Each of the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties hereby agrees that (i) it will not oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Senior Representative or any other Senior Secured Obligations Secured Party (or their representatives) for allowance of Senior Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses to the extent of the value of the Senior Representative’s Lien on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, without regard to the existence of the Lien of the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral; and (ii) prior to any Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations, will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the Bankruptcy Code senior to or on a parity with the Liens on the Senior Secured Obligations Collateral securing the Senior Secured Obligations for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Collateral.

(h) The Term Loan Agent, for itself and on behalf of the Term Loan Secured Parties, and the ABL Agent, for itself and on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, acknowledge and intend that: the grants of Liens pursuant to the Term Loan Security Documents, on the one hand, and the ABL Security Documents, on the other hand, constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens, and because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the ABL Debt Obligations are fundamentally different from the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization or liquidation proposed or confirmed (or approved) in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the ABL Secured Parties and the claims of the Term Loan Secured Parties in respect of any Collateral constitute claims in the same class (rather than separate classes of secured claims), then the ABL Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions from the Collateral shall be made as if there were separate classes of ABL Debt Obligations and Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations against the Grantors (with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the ABL First Lien Collateral or the Term Loan First Lien Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring all claims held by the other Secured Parties for whom such Collateral is Junior Secured Obligations Collateral)), the ABL Secured Parties or the Term Loan Secured Parties, respectively, shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, and expenses that are available from the applicable Senior Secured Obligations Collateral for each of the ABL Secured Parties and the Term Loan Secured Parties (regardless of whether any such claims for post-petition interest, fees, or expenses, may or may not be allowed or allowable in whole or in part as against the Borrower or any of the other Grantors in the applicable Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding(s) pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code, applicable law or otherwise), respectively, before any distribution is made in respect of any claims in respect of the Junior Secured Obligations from, or with respect to, such applicable Senior Secured Obligations Collateral, with the holder of such

 

-26-


claims hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the respective other Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them from, or with respect to, such applicable Senior Secured Obligations Collateral to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing their aggregate recoveries.

(i) If, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor are distributed pursuant to a plan of reorganization or plan of liquidation, both on account of the ABL Debt Obligations and on account of the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations, then, to the extent the debt obligations distributed on account of the ABL Debt Obligations and on account of the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations are secured by Liens upon the Collateral, the provisions of this Agreement will survive the distribution of such debt obligations pursuant to such plan and will apply with like effect to the debt obligations so distributed, to the Liens securing such debt obligations and the distribution of proceeds thereof.

SECTION 2.07 Reinstatement. In the event that any of the Senior Secured Obligations shall be paid and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference or other avoidance under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Senior Secured Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

Nothing in this Section shall be deemed to modify, waive, condition, limit or otherwise adversely affect any right ABL Agent may have to sell or otherwise dispose of any inventory (including inventory bearing any trademarks or tradenames forming a part of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral), whether by lien enforcement action or otherwise, after any sale or other disposition of any intellectual property by Term Loan Agent or any other Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party.

The ABL Secured Parties severally (on a pro rata basis) agree to pay, indemnify and hold each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents harmless from and against any liability, cost, expense, loss or damages, including legal fees and expenses, resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the ABL Agent or any of its agents, representatives or invitees in its or their operation of such facilities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event

 

-28-

Without limiting the rights granted in this paragraph, ABL Agent, to the extent that rights have been exercised under this Section 2.08 by ABL Agent, shall cooperate with the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties in connection with any efforts made by the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties to sell the Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

(d) Each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent and each Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party, in its capacity as a secured party (or as a purchaser, assignee or transferee, as applicable), and to the extent of its interest therein, hereby grants to the ABL Agent and the ABL Secured Parties a nonexclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, license or sublicense any and all Intellectual Property now owned or hereafter acquired included as part of the Pari Term Loan Debt Collateral (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) as is or may be necessary or advisable in the ABL Agent’s reasonable judgment for the ABL Agent to process, ship, produce, store, supply, lease, complete, sell, liquidate or otherwise deal with the ABL First Lien Collateral, or to collect or otherwise realize upon any Accounts (as defined in the ABL Credit Agreement) comprising ABL First Lien Collateral, in each case solely in connection with any exercise of remedies available to the ABL Secured Parties; provided that (i) any such license shall terminate upon the sale of the applicable ABL First Lien Collateral and shall not extend or transfer to the purchaser of such ABL First Lien Collateral, (ii) the ABL Agent’s use of such Intellectual Property shall be reasonable and lawful, and (iii) any such license is granted on an “AS-IS” basis, without any representation or warranty whatsoever. Furthermore, each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent agrees that, in connection with any exercise of remedies available to any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent in respect of Pari Term Loan Debt Collateral, such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall provide written notice to any purchaser, assignee or transferee of Intellectual Property pursuant to such exercise of remedies, that the applicable Intellectual Property is subject to such license.

SECTION 2.09 Insurance. Unless and until written notice by the ABL Agent to each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent that the Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations in respect of the ABL Debt Obligations has occurred, as between the ABL Agent, on the one hand, and any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, on the other hand, only the ABL Agent will have the right (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Debt Documents and the Term Loan Documents) to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting ABL First Lien Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the ABL First Lien Collateral. Unless and until written notice by each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent to the ABL Agent that the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations have been paid in full, as between the ABL Agent, on the one hand, and any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, on the other hand, only Pari Term Loan Debt Agents will have the

right (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Debt Documents and the Pari Term Loan Debt Documents) to adjust or settle any insurance policy covering or constituting Term Loan First Lien Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding solely affecting Term Loan First Lien Collateral. To the extent that an insured loss covers or constitutes both ABL First Lien Collateral and Term Loan First Lien Collateral, then the ABL Agent and each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent will work jointly and in good faith to collect, adjust or settle (subject to the rights of the Grantors under the ABL Debt Documents and the Pari Term Loan Debt Documents) under the relevant insurance policy.

SECTION 2.10 Refinancing and Additional Secured Debt.

(a) The ABL Debt Obligations and the Pari Term Loan Debt Obligations may be Replaced by any ABL Substitute Facility or Term Loan Substitute Facility, as the case may be, in each case, without notice to or the consent of any Secured Party, all without affecting the Lien priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided, however, that the Term Loan Agent and the ABL Agent shall receive on or prior to incurrence of the Replacement of an ABL Substitute Facility or Term Loan Substitute Facility (i) an Officer’s Certificate from the Borrower stating that (A) the Replacement is permitted by each applicable Secured Document to be incurred, or to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Replacement under any Secured Document, each Grantor has obtained the requisite consent and (B) the requirements of Section 2.09 have been satisfied, and (ii) a Lien Sharing and Priority Confirmation Joinder from the holders or lenders of any indebtedness that Replaces the ABL Debt Obligations or the Term Loan Debt Obligations (or an authorized agent, trustee or other representative on their behalf).

Each of the then-existing ABL Agent and Term Loan Agent shall be authorized to execute and deliver such documents and agreements (including amendments or supplements to this Agreement) as such holders, lenders, agent, trustee or other representative may reasonably request to give effect to such Replacement, it being understood that the ABL Agent and each Term Loan Agent, without the consent of any other Secured Party, may amend, supplement, modify or restate this Agreement to the extent reasonably necessary or appropriate to facilitate such amendments or supplements to effect such Replacement all at the expense of the Borrower.

If an ABL Secured Party should amend or waive any provisions of the ABL Debt Documents, whether or not any ABL Secured Party has knowledge that such amendment or waiver would result in a breach of any Pari Term Loan Debt Documents or an Event of Default under any Pari Term Loan Debt Documents, or knowledge of an act, condition or event which with notice or passage of time or both would constitute an Event of Default under any Pari Term Loan Debt Documents, in no event shall the ABL Secured Parties have any liability to any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties as a result of such breach and, without limiting generality of the foregoing, the ABL Secured Parties shall not have any liability for tortious interference with contractual relations or for inducement by the ABL Secured Parties of any Grantor to breach any contract or otherwise.

To the extent any additional Liens are granted on any asset or property pursuant to this Section 2.14, the priority of such additional Liens shall be determined in accordance with Section 2.01. In addition, to the extent that the foregoing provisions are not complied with for any reason, and without limiting any other rights and remedies available under this Agreement, the ABL Agent, each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent and the Secured Parties agree that any amounts received by or distributed to any of them pursuant to or as a result of Liens granted in contravention of this Section 2.14 shall be subject to Section 2.04(b).

SECTION 2.15 Set-Off and Tracing of and Priorities in Proceeds. Each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, on behalf of the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Party exercises any rights of set-off against any ABL First Lien Collateral, the amount of such set-off shall be held and distributed pursuant to Section 2.04(b). The ABL Agent, on behalf of the ABL Secured Parties, acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent the ABL Agent or any ABL Secured Party exercises any rights of set-off against any ABL First Lien Collateral, the amount of such set-off shall be held and distributed pursuant to Section 2.04(b).

In addition, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations occurs, the Pari Term Loan Debt Agents and the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties each hereby consents to the application, prior to the receipt by the ABL Agent of an Enforcement Notice issued by any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, of cash or other proceeds of Collateral, deposited under Account Agreements to the repayment of ABL Debt Obligations pursuant to the ABL Debt Documents; provided that after the receipt by the ABL Agent of an Enforcement Notice from any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent and a Term Loan Proceeds Notice with respect to such proceeds, any identifiable proceeds of Term Loan First Lien Collateral (whether or not deposited under Account Agreements with the ABL Agent) shall be treated as Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the definition of ABL First Lien Collateral or Term Loan First Lien Collateral, in the event that proceeds of Collateral

 

-33-


are received from (or are otherwise attributable to the value of) a sale or other disposition of Collateral that involves a combination of ABL First Lien Collateral and Term Loan First Lien Collateral, the portion of such proceeds that shall be allocated as proceeds of ABL First Lien Collateral for purposes of this Agreement shall be an amount equal to the net book value of such ABL First Lien Collateral (except in the case of Accounts, Supporting Obligations with respect to such Accounts and proceeds thereof, which amount shall be equal to the face amount of such Accounts). In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the definition of ABL First Lien Collateral or Term Loan First Lien Collateral, to the extent proceeds of Collateral are proceeds received from (or are otherwise attributable to the value of) the sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary that is a Grantor or all or substantially all of the assets of any such Subsidiary, such proceeds shall constitute (a) first, in an amount equal to (i) the face amount of the Accounts (excluding any rights to payment for any property which specifically constitutes Term Loan First Lien Collateral that has been or is to be sold, leased, licensed, assigned or otherwise disposed of), (ii) the amount of cash held in the deposit accounts of such Grantor immediately prior to the consummation of such sale constituting the proceeds of Accounts constituting ABL First Lien Collateral and (iii) the net book value of the Inventory owned by such Subsidiary at the time of such sale, ABL First Lien Collateral, and (b) second, to the extent in excess of the amounts described in preceding clause (a), Term Loan First Lien Collateral.

ARTICLE III

Interests; Rights Under Permits and Licenses

SECTION 3.01 General. Each of the ABL Agent and each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent agrees and acknowledges that if it shall at any time hold a Senior Lien on any Junior Secured Obligations Collateral that can be perfected by the possession or control of such Collateral or of any account in which such Collateral is held, and if such Collateral or any such account is in fact in the possession or under the control of the Senior Representative, the Senior Representative shall also hold such Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the Junior Representative for the sole purpose of perfecting the Junior Lien of the Junior Representative on such Collateral.

-34-


other person for such perfection or failure to perfect, it being understood that the sole purpose of this Article is to enable the Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties to obtain a perfected Junior Lien in such Collateral to the extent, if any, that such perfection results from the possession or control of such Collateral or any such account by the ABL Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent. Subject to Section 2.06 and to the ABL Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent receiving such indemnifications as shall be required by such ABL Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, from and after the associated Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations, the ABL Agent or any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall take all such actions in its power as shall reasonably be requested by Junior Representative (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) to transfer possession of such Collateral in its possession (in each case to the extent the Junior Representative has a Lien on such Collateral after giving effect to any prior or concurrent releases of Liens) to the Junior Representative (and with respect to any Collateral constituting ABL First Lien Collateral, to each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent for the benefit of all applicable Junior Secured Obligations Secured Parties). In furtherance of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby grants a security interest in the Collateral to each ABL Agent and Pari Term Loan Debt Agent that controls such Collateral for the benefit of all Junior Representatives which have been granted a Lien on such Collateral controlled by such Senior Representative.

SECTION 3.02 Deposit Accounts.

To the extent that any such Deposit Account is under the control of the ABL Agent at any time, the ABL Agent will act as agent and gratuitous bailee for each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent for the purpose of perfecting the Liens of the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties in such Deposit Accounts and the cash and other assets therein as provided in Section 2.01 (but will have no duty, responsibility or obligation to the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties (including any duty, responsibility or obligation as to the maintenance of such control, the effect of such arrangement or the establishment of such perfection). Unless the Junior Liens on such ABL First Lien Collateral shall have been or concurrently are released, after the occurrence of any Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations, the ABL Agent shall, to the extent that the same are then under the sole dominion and control of the ABL Agent and that such action is otherwise within the power and authority of the ABL Agent pursuant to the ABL Debt Documents, at the request of any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, cooperate with Grantors and the other Pari Term Loan Debt Agents (at the expense of the Grantors) in permitting control of any Deposit Accounts to be transferred to the Controlling Term Loan Debt Agent (or for other arrangements with respect to each such Deposit Accounts satisfactory to each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent to be made):

(b) The Grantors, the Representatives, the Secured Parties and all other parties hereto agree that only proceeds of the Term Loan First Lien Collateral may be deposited in the Collateral Proceeds Account and agree to take all other actions necessary to give effect to the intent of this Section 3.02(b). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent hereby agrees that if the Collateral Proceeds Account contains any proceeds of the ABL First Lien Collateral, it shall hold such proceeds in trust for the ABL Secured Parties and transfer such proceeds the ABL Secured Parties reasonably promptly after receiving written notice from the ABL Secured Parties that it has possession of such proceeds in accordance with Section 2.04(b). Each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall give written notice to the ABL Agent identifying the Collateral Proceeds Account.

SECTION 3.03 Rights under Permits and Licenses.

Each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent agrees that if the ABL Agent shall require rights available under any permit or license controlled by such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent (as certified to such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent by the ABL Agent, upon which such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent may rely) in order to realize on any ABL First Lien Collateral, such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall (subject to the terms of the Pari Term Loan Debt Documents, including such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent’s rights to indemnification thereunder) take all such actions as shall be available to it (at the sole expense of the Grantors), consistent with applicable law and reasonably requested by the ABL Agent in writing, to make such rights available to the ABL Agent, subject to the Pari Term Loan Debt Liens. The ABL Agent agrees that if any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall require rights available under any permit or license controlled by the ABL Agent (as certified to the ABL Agent by such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, upon which the ABL Agent may rely) in order to realize on any Term Loan First Lien Collateral, the ABL Agent shall (subject to the terms of the ABL Debt Documents, including such ABL Agent’s rights to indemnification thereunder) take all such actions as shall be available to it (at the sole expense of the Grantors), consistent with applicable law and reasonably requested by such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent in writing, to make such rights available to such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent, subject to the ABL Liens.

SECTION 7.02 Waivers; Amendment.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder 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 parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any 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. No notice or demand on any party hereto in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be terminated, waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by each Representative and the Borrower, on behalf of the Grantors (it being understood that the consent of the Borrower to any amendment or modification of this Agreement or any provision thereof shall only be required to the extent such amendment or modification adversely affects or impairs the rights of the Borrower or any Grantor (including rights hereunder, under the ABL Debt Documents and under the Pari Term Loan Debt Documents) or imposes any additional obligation or liability upon the Borrower or any Grantor); provided, however, that this Agreement may be amended from time to time (x) as provided in Section 2.12 and (y) at the sole request and expense of the Borrower, and without the consent of any Representative, to add, pursuant to the Intercreditor Agreement Joinder, additional Grantors whereupon such Person will be bound by the terms hereof to the same extent as if it had executed and delivered this Agreement as of the date hereof. Any amendment of this Agreement that is proposed to be effected without the consent of a Representative as permitted by the proviso to the preceding sentence shall be submitted to such Representative for its review at least 5 Business Days (or such shorter period as shall be acceptable to such Representative) prior to the proposed effectiveness of such amendment; provided that no prior review shall be required for the joinder of a Grantor pursuant to a joinder in the form of Exhibit A.

SECTION 7.06 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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 the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate 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 7.07 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan in New York, New York and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding shall be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal court. 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.

(c) Each party hereto 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 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) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 7.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 7.08 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.

 

-40-


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 7.11 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the ABL Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the Pari Term Loan Debt Secured Parties, on the other hand. None of the Grantors or any other creditor thereof shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement (provided that nothing in this Agreement (other than Article I, Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.09, 2.10 or Article VII) is intended to or will amend, waive or otherwise modify the provisions of the ABL Debt Documents or the Pari Term Loan Debt Documents), and no Grantor may rely on the terms hereof (other than Article I, Sections 2.05, 2.06, 2.09, 2.10, Article IV and Article VII). Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of Grantors, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Obligations under the Secured Documents as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Secured Document, the Grantors shall not be required to act or refrain from acting (a) pursuant to this Agreement or any Pari Term Loan Debt Document with respect to any ABL First Lien Collateral in any manner that would cause a default under any ABL Debt Document, or (b) pursuant to this Agreement or any ABL Debt Document with respect to any Term Loan First Lien Collateral in any manner that would cause a default under any Pari Term Loan Debt Document.

SECTION 7.12 Certain Terms Concerning the ABL Agent and each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent; Force Majeure.

(a) Neither the ABL Agent nor any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall have any liability or responsibility for the actions or omissions of any other Secured Party, or for any other Secured Party’s compliance with (or failure to comply with) the terms of this Agreement.

Neither the ABL Agent nor any Pari Term Loan Debt Agent shall be responsible for or liable for any failure or delay in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement arising out of or caused by, directly or

indirectly, forces beyond its reasonable control, including strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts of war or terrorism, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications or computer (software or hardware) services.

(b) Each of the Pari Term Loan Debt Agents and the ABL Agent is executing and delivering this Agreement solely in its capacity as agent and in so doing, neither such Pari Term Loan Debt Agent nor the ABL Agent shall be responsible for the terms or sufficiency of this Agreement for any purpose. None of the Pari Term Loan Debt Agents or the ABL Agent shall have any duties or obligations under or pursuant to this Agreement other than such duties as may be expressly set forth in this Agreement as duties on its part to be performed or observed. In entering into this Agreement, or in taking (or forbearing from) any action under or pursuant to this Agreement, each Pari Term Loan Debt Agent and the ABL Agent shall have and be protected by all of the rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections granted to it under the ABL Debt Documents and the Term Loan Documents, as applicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the “Article 9 Collateral” include or the Security Interest attach to any Excluded Collateral.

(c) The Security Interest and the security interest granted pursuant to Article II are granted as security only and shall not subject the Term Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to, or in any way alter or modify, any obligation or liability of any Grantor with respect to or arising out of the Collateral.

SECTION 3.02. Representations and Warranties. The Grantors jointly and severally represent and warrant to the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, that:

(a) each Grantor has good title or valid leasehold interests in the tangible Article 9 Collateral material to its business with respect to which it has purported to grant a Security Interest hereunder, free and clear of any Liens, (i) except for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement and (ii) except for minor defects in title that do not interfere with its ability to conduct its business as currently conducted or as proposed to be conducted or to utilize such properties for their intended purposes, in each case to the extent the failure to have such good title or valid leasehold interest could not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, and has full power and authority to grant to the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the Security Interest in such tangible Article 9 Collateral pursuant hereto and to execute, deliver and perform its obligations in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, without the consent or approval of any other Person other than any consent or approval that has been obtained and except to the extent that failure to obtain or make such consent or approval, as the case may be, individually or in aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect;

(b) the Perfection Certificate has been duly prepared, completed and executed and the information set forth therein, including the exact legal name and jurisdiction of organization of each Grantor, is correct and complete in all material respects as of the Effective Date. The Uniform Commercial Code financing statements or other appropriate filings, recordings or registrations prepared by the Term Collateral Agent based upon the information provided to the Term Collateral Agent in the Perfection Certificate for filing in each governmental, municipal or other office specified in Schedule 4 to the Perfection Certificate (or specified by notice from the Borrower to the Term Collateral Agent after the Effective Date in the case of filings, recordings or registrations required by Section 5.12 of the Credit Agreement), are all the filings, recordings and registrations that are necessary to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all Article 9 Collateral in which the Security Interest may be perfected by such filing, recording or registration in the United States, and as of the date hereof, no further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration (other than filings, if any, which shall be made in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, to record the Security Interest in Article 9 Collateral consisting of filed, registered or applied-for United States Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights) is necessary, except as provided under applicable law with respect to the filing of continuation statements (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of registered or applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights filed, acquired or developed by a Grantor after the date hereof). The Grantors represent and warrant that, if applicable, a fully executed Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement and Copyright Security Agreement, in each case containing a list of the Article 9 Collateral consisting of United States registered Patents, United States registered Trademarks and United States registered Copyrights (and applications for any of the foregoing), as applicable, and executed by each Grantor owning any such Article 9 Collateral, have been delivered to the Term Collateral Agent for recording with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office as applicable to establish a legal, valid and perfected security interest in favor of the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in respect of all Article 9 Collateral consisting of registered and applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registration in the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, as applicable. No further or subsequent filing, refiling, recording, rerecording, registration or reregistration is necessary (other than such actions as are necessary to perfect the Security Interest with respect to any Article 9 Collateral consisting of registered and applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights acquired or developed by a Grantor after the date hereof);

(c) the Security Interest constitutes (i) a legal and valid security interest in all the Article 9 Collateral securing the payment and performance of the Secured Obligations, (ii) subject to the filings described in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.02 (including payment of applicable fees in connection therewith), a perfected security interest

 

10


in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected by filing, recording or registering a financing statement or analogous document in the applicable jurisdiction in the United States pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code and (iii) subject to the filings described in paragraph (b) of this Section 3.02, a perfected security interest in all Article 9 Collateral in which a security interest may be perfected upon the receipt and recording of a Patent Security Agreement, a Trademark Security Agreement and a Copyright Security Agreement with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable. The Security Interest is and shall be prior to any other Lien on any of the Article 9 Collateral, other than Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement;

(d) as of the Effective Date, Schedule III hereto sets forth a true and complete list, with respect to each Grantor, of (i) all of such Grantor’s Patents and Trademarks applied for or issued or registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, including the name of the registered owner or applicant and the registration, application, or publication number, as applicable, of each such Patent or Trademark and (ii) all of such Grantor’s Copyrights applied for or registered with the United States Copyright Office, including the name of the registered owner and the registration number of each such Copyright; and

(e) none of the Grantors has filed or consented to (i) the filing of any financing statement or analogous document, in each case with respect to a Lien, under the Uniform Commercial Code or any other applicable laws covering any Article 9 Collateral, or (ii) any assignment in which any Grantor assigns any Article 9 Collateral or any security agreement or similar instrument covering any Article 9 Collateral with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or the United States Copyright Office, except, in each case, for Liens expressly permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 3.03. Covenants. (a) Each Grantor shall, at its own expense, take any and all commercially reasonable actions necessary to (i) defend title to the Article 9 Collateral (other than Intellectual Property, which is governed by Section 3.05) against all Persons, except with respect to Article 9 Collateral that such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment is no longer necessary or beneficial to the conduct of such Grantor’s business, and (ii) defend the Security Interest of the Term Collateral Agent in the Article 9 Collateral and the priority thereof against any Lien, in each case subject to (x) Liens permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, (y) transfers made in compliance with the Credit Agreement and (z) the rights of such Grantor under Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement and corresponding provisions of the Security Documents to obtain a release of the Liens created under the Security Documents.

(b) Each Grantor agrees, at its own expense, to execute, acknowledge, deliver and cause to be duly filed all such further instruments and documents and take all such actions as the Term Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request to obtain, preserve, protect and perfect the Security Interest and the rights and remedies created hereby, including the payment of any reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and Taxes required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the granting of the Security Interest and the filing of any financing statements or other documents in connection herewith or therewith. If any amount payable to any Grantor under or in connection with any of the Article 9 Collateral shall be or become evidenced by any promissory note (which may be a global note) or other instrument (other than any promissory note or other instrument in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1,000,000 owed to the applicable Grantor by any Person), such note or instrument shall be promptly delivered (but in any event within 45 days of receipt by such Grantor or such longer period as the Term Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) to the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, together with an undated instrument of transfer duly executed in blank and in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Term Collateral Agent.

(c) At its option, the Term Collateral Agent may, with three (3) Business Day’s 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 tangible Article 9 Collateral and not permitted pursuant to Section 6.02 of the Credit Agreement, and may pay for the maintenance and preservation of the tangible Article 9 Collateral to the extent any Grantor fails to do so as required by the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and within a reasonable period of time after the Term Collateral Agent has reasonably requested that it do so; provided that nothing in this paragraph shall be interpreted as excusing any Grantor from the performance of, or imposing any obligation on the Term Collateral 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.

 

11


(d) The exercise by the Term Collateral Agent of any of its rights hereunder shall not release any Grantor from any of its duties or obligations under each contract, agreement or instrument relating to the Article 9 Collateral unless the Term Collateral Agent has expressly in writing assumed such duties and obligations and each Grantor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties from and against any and all liability for such performance.

(e) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, it is understood that no Grantor shall be required by this Agreement to better assure, preserve, protect or perfect the Security Interest created hereunder by any means other than (i) filings of financing statements pursuant to the Uniform Commercial Code, (ii) filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office (or any successor office), in respect of registered or applied for Intellectual Property, (iii) in the case of Collateral that constitutes Pledged Securities, Instruments, Tangible Chattel Paper or Negotiable Documents (other than those Negotiable Documents held in the ordinary course of business), delivery thereof to the Term Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms hereof (together with, where applicable, undated stock or note powers or other undated proper instruments of assignment) and (iv) other actions to the extent required by Section 3.04 hereunder. No Grantor shall be required to (i) complete any filings or other action with respect to the better assurance, preservation, protection or perfection of the security interests created hereby in any jurisdiction outside of the United States or to reimburse the Administrative Agent for any costs incurred in connection with the same or (ii) except as required by Section 3.04(e) below, deliver control agreements with respect to, or confer perfection by “control” over, any Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts or Commodity Accounts.

SECTION 3.04. Other Actions. In order to further insure the attachment, perfection and priority of, and the ability of the Term Collateral Agent to enforce, the Security Interest, each Grantor agrees, in each case at such Grantor’s own expense, to take the following actions with respect to the following Article 9 Collateral:

(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral evidencing Indebtedness in excess of $1,000,000 (individually), such Grantor shall promptly (but in any event within 45 days of receipt by such Grantor or such longer period as the Term Collateral Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Term Collateral Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Term Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(b) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article II, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Collateral, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Term Collateral Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Term Collateral Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(c) [Reserved].

(d) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim (in respect of which a complaint or counterclaim has been filed by or on behalf of such Grantor) seeking damages in an amount reasonably estimated to exceed $1,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Term Collateral Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description of such claim, and Schedule IV hereto shall be deemed to be supplemented to include such description of such Commercial Tort Claim as set forth in such writing.

(e) Control Agreements. With respect to each Deposit Account and Securities Account subject to a control agreement for the benefit of an ABL Agent (the “ABL Control Agreement”), the applicable Grantor shall deliver to the Term Collateral Agent a duly executed control agreement, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Term Collateral Agent, granting to the Term Collateral Agent “control” within the meaning of the UCC over such Deposit Account or Securities Account at the time it enters into such ABL Control Agreement or with respect to any ABL Control Agreement outstanding on the date hereof, within 90 days of the date hereof (or such later date as may be agreed to by the Term Collateral Agent in its reasonable discretion).

 

12


SECTION 3.05. Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. (a) Except to the extent a failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property for which such Grantor has standing and ability to do so, each Grantor agrees to take commercially reasonable efforts to (i) take all steps to maintain the validity and enforceability of any United States registered Intellectual Property (or applications therefor) and to maintain such registrations and applications of Intellectual Property in full force and effect and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark or Copyright registration or application that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business. Grantor shall take commercially reasonable steps to defend title to and ownership of its Intellectual Property that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 3.05 shall prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, abandoning, failing to pursue or enforce or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate, be invalidated or put into the public domain any of its registered or applied for Intellectual Property that is no longer used or useful, or economically practicable to maintain, or if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business.

(b) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other interest in any Intellectual Property after the Effective Date (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and (ii) any such Intellectual Property shall automatically become Intellectual Property subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except, with respect to each of (i) and (ii) above, if such Intellectual Property is obtained under a license from a third party under which a security interest would not be permitted. For the avoidance of doubt, a security interest shall not be granted in any Intellectual Property that constitutes an Excluded Asset.

(c) Each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall (i) whenever a certificate is delivered or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 5.03(b) of the Credit Agreement, deliver to the Term Collateral Agent a schedule setting forth all of such Grantor’s registered and applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights that are not listed on Schedule III hereto or on a schedule previously provided to the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 3.05(c), and (ii) within a reasonable time following the request of the Term Collateral Agent, execute and deliver a Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement or Copyright Security Agreement, as applicable, in respect of such Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights, and any and all other agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Term Collateral Agent may reasonably request to evidence and perfect the Security Interest in such registered or applied for Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights.

ARTICLE IV

Remedies

SECTION 4.01. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver, on demand, each item of Collateral to the Term Collateral Agent or any Person designated by the Term Collateral Agent, and it is agreed that the Term Collateral 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 assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Term Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, or to license or sublicense, 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 Term Collateral Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any of the then existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained) in connection with exercise of its remedies hereunder, 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 the Pledged Collateral and occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Term Collateral Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law

 

13


and the notice requirements described below, 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 Term Collateral Agent shall deem appropriate. The Term Collateral Agent shall be authorized at any such sale of securities (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 Term Collateral 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 sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal that 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 Term Collateral Agent shall give the applicable Grantors no less than 10 days’ prior 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties 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 Agreement, any Secured Party may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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 4.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercial reasonableness standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

SECTION 4.02. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of any applicable intercreditor agreement contemplated by the Credit Agreement, the Term Collateral Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as follows:

FIRST, to the payment of all reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Term Collateral Agent in connection with such collection or sale or otherwise in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any of the Secured Obligations, including all reasonable

 

14


and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket court costs and the fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel (limited, in the case of (x) legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of Paul Hastings LLP and to the extent reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent to be necessary, one local counsel in each relevant material jurisdiction and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest where the Term Collateral Agent or any Lender affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional conflicts counsel and (y) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable, documented and invoiced fees, charges and disbursements of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)), the repayment of all advances made by the Term Collateral Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of any Grantor and any other 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);

THIRD, to any agent of any other junior secured debt, in accordance with any applicable intercreditor agreement; and

FOURTH, to the Grantors, their successors or assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

The Term Collateral Agent shall have absolute discretion 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 Term Collateral Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Term Collateral 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 of the purchase money paid over to the Term Collateral Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. The Term Collateral Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Parties for actions taken in reliance on information supplied to it as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Secured Obligations.

SECTION 4.03. Securities Act. 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 Term Collateral Agent if the Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral Agent may, with 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 Term Collateral 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 to the extent the Term Collateral Agent has determined that such a registration is not required by any Requirements of Law and (b) may approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) 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 Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Term Collateral Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that

 

15


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 purchasers (or a single purchaser) were approached. The provisions of this Section 4.03 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 Term Collateral Agent sells.

SECTION 4.04. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of enabling the Term Collateral Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement, each Grantor hereby grants to the Term Collateral Agent an irrevocable (until terminated as provided below), nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use or sublicense (to its contractors, agents or representatives, or otherwise exercising its remedies hereunder) any of the 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 reasonable 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 to the extent that such non-exclusive license (a) does not violate the express terms of any agreement between a Grantor and a third party governing such Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, or gives such third party any right of acceleration, modification, termination or cancellation therein and (b) is not prohibited by any Requirements of Law; provided that such license and sublicenses with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks. The use of such license by the Term Collateral Agent may be exercised solely during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Term Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantors, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, at the time of the release of the Liens on any Collateral as set forth in Section 5.13, the license granted to the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 4.04 with respect to such Collateral shall automatically and immediately terminate.

ARTICLE V

Miscellaneous

SECTION 5.01. 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 Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Term Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent 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 Term Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and 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 this Agreement 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 5.02, 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 shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default hereunder, regardless of whether the Term Collateral Agent, Administrative Agent, or any Lender 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 Term Collateral Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 9.04 of the Credit Agreement; provided that the Term Collateral Agent may, without the consent of any other Secured Party, consent to a departure by any Grantor from any covenant of such Grantor set forth herein to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Term Collateral Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.03. Term Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. The provisions of Section 9.03 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis; provided that each reference therein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Grantor” and each reference therein to the “Term Administrative Agent” shall be deemed to be a reference to the “Term Collateral Agent.”

SECTION 5.04. 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 Term Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 5.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. 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. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Term Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Term Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Term Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.

SECTION 5.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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 the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 5.08. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any of and all the obligations of such Grantor then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although (i) such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and (ii) such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable Lender shall notify the applicable Grantor and the Term Collateral Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any

 

17


failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 5.08. The rights of each Lender under this Section 5.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

SECTION 5.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Appointment of Service of Process Agent. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto 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 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 shall affect any right that the Term Collateral Agent, the Term Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Grantor or its respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that 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 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) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 5.01. Nothing in any Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) Each Grantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Borrower as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any such action or proceeding and the Borrower hereby accepts such designation and appointment.

SECTION 5.10. 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 OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (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 5.10.

SECTION 5.11. 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 to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 5.12. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Term Collateral 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

 

18


(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 5.13. Termination or Release. (a) This Agreement, the Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall terminate automatically upon the Termination Date.

(b) The Security Interest and all other security interests granted hereby shall also automatically terminate and be released at the time or times and in the manner set forth in Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement.

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section, the Term Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release so long as the applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Term Collateral Agent such certifications or documents as the Term Collateral Agent shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Section 5.13. Any execution and delivery of documents by the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Term Collateral Agent.

SECTION 5.14. Additional Subsidiaries. The Grantors shall cause (i) each Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) which, from time to time, on or after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets) to the Term Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (ii) consistent with the Credit Agreement, any Domestic Subsidiary, or to the extent reasonably acceptable to the Term Collateral Agent, a Subsidiary that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary (including any consolidated Affiliate in which its Subsidiaries own no Equity Interests), which the Borrower, at its option, elects to become a Grantor, to execute and deliver to the Term Collateral Agent a Grantor Supplement regarding such Subsidiary (as applicable), in each case, within the time period provided in Section 5.11 of the Credit Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of such documents to the Term Collateral Agent, any such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.15. Term Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Term Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Term Collateral Agent) 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 Term Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof at any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable (until termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.13) and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Term Collateral Agent shall have the right, but only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and written notice by the Term Collateral Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights, with full power of substitution either in the Term Collateral Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, indorse, 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 bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, 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

 

19


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) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Term Collateral Agent; (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 Term Collateral Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes, and (i) to make, settle and adjust claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, indorsing 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; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Term Collateral Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral 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, bad faith or willful misconduct or that of any of their controlled Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents or attorneys-in-fact.

SECTION 5.16. ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement Governs. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Liens and security interests granted to the Term Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the Term Collateral Agent hereunder or the application of proceeds (including insurance proceeds and condemnation proceeds) of any Collateral, are subject to the provisions of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, the terms of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

SECTION 5.17. Delivery of Collateral. In accordance with the terms of the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement, all ABL First Lien Collateral delivered to the ABL Agent shall be held by the ABL Agent as gratuitous bailee for the Secured Parties solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of Senior Secured Debt Obligations with respect to ABL First Lien Collateral, to the extent any Grantor is required hereunder to deliver ABL First Lien Collateral to the Term Collateral Agent and is unable to do so as a result of having previously delivered such ABL First Lien Collateral to the ABL Agent in accordance with the terms of the ABL Security Documents, such Grantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such delivery shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the ABL Agent, acting as gratuitous bailee of the Term Collateral Agent. Terms used in this Section 5.17 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the ABL/Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 5.18. No Liability. The Term Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Term Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Term Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

-17-


(a) Instruments. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any Instruments constituting Collateral evidencing Indebtedness in excess of $1,000,000 (individually), such Grantor shall promptly (but in any event within 45 days of receipt by such Grantor or such longer period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(b) Investment Property. Except to the extent otherwise provided in Article II, if any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire any certificated securities constituting Collateral, such Grantor shall forthwith endorse, assign and deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, accompanied by such undated instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request.

(c) [Reserved].

(d) Commercial Tort Claims. If any Grantor shall at any time hold or acquire a Commercial Tort Claim (in respect of which a complaint or counterclaim has been filed by or on behalf of such Grantor) seeking damages in an amount reasonably estimated to exceed $1,000,000, such Grantor shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof in a writing signed by such Grantor, including a summary description of such claim, and Schedule IV hereto shall be deemed to be supplemented to include such description of such Commercial Tort Claim as set forth in such writing.

SECTION 3.05. Covenants Regarding Patent, Trademark and Copyright Collateral. (a) Except to the extent a failure to act could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, with respect to registration or pending application of each item of its Intellectual Property for which such Grantor has standing and ability to do so, each Grantor agrees to take commercially reasonable efforts to (i) take all steps to maintain the validity and enforceability of any United States registered Intellectual Property (or applications therefor) that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business and to maintain such registrations and applications of Intellectual Property in full force and effect and (ii) pursue the registration and maintenance of each Patent, Trademark or Copyright registration or application that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business. Grantor shall take commercially reasonable steps to defend title to and ownership of its Intellectual Property that is material to the conduct of such Grantor’s business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 3.05 shall prevent any Grantor from disposing of, discontinuing the use or maintenance of, abandoning, failing to pursue or enforce or otherwise allowing to lapse, terminate, be invalidated or put into the public domain any of its registered or applied for Intellectual Property that is no longer used or useful, or economically practicable to maintain, or if such Grantor determines in its reasonable business judgment that such discontinuance is desirable in the conduct of its business.

(b) Each Grantor agrees that, should it obtain an ownership or other interest in any Intellectual Property after the Closing Date (i) the provisions of this Agreement shall automatically apply thereto and (ii) any such Intellectual Property shall automatically become Intellectual Property subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, except, with respect to each of (i) and (ii) above, if such Intellectual Property is obtained under a license from a third party under which a security interest would not be permitted. For the avoidance of doubt, a security interest shall not be granted in any Intellectual Property that constitutes an Excluded Asset.

(c) Each Grantor, either itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall (i) whenever a certificate is delivered or required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.4(b) of the Credit Agreement, deliver to the Administrative Agent a schedule setting forth all of such Grantor’s registered and applied for Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights that are not listed on Schedule III hereto or on a schedule previously provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.05(c), and (ii) within a reasonable time following the request of the Administrative Agent, execute and deliver a Patent Security Agreement, Trademark Security Agreement or Copyright Security Agreement, as applicable, in respect of such Patents, Trademarks and Copyrights, and any and all other agreements, instruments, documents and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence and perfect the Security Interest in such registered or applied for Patents, Trademarks or Copyrights.

ARTICLE IV

Remedies

SECTION 4.01. Remedies upon Default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor agrees to deliver, on demand, each item of Collateral to the Administrative Agent or any Person designated by the Administrative Agent, including all books and records relating thereto and all tangible evidence of its Accounts and contract rights (including, without limitation, all documents evidencing the Accounts and all Contracts evidencing such contract rights), and if the Administrative Agent so directs, such Grantor shall legend, in form and manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Accounts and the Contracts, as well as books, records and documents (if any) of such Grantor evidencing or pertaining to such Accounts and Contracts with an appropriate reference to the fact that such Accounts and Contracts have been assigned to the Administrative Agent and that the Administrative Agent has a security interest therein, and it is agreed that the Administrative 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 assignment, transfer and conveyance of any of or all such Article 9 Collateral by the applicable Grantors to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, or to license or sublicense, 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 Administrative Agent shall determine (other than in violation of any of the then existing licensing arrangements to the extent that waivers cannot be obtained) in connection with exercise of its remedies hereunder, 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 the Pledged Collateral and occupy any premises owned or, to the extent lawful and permitted, leased by any of the Grantors where the Collateral or any part thereof is assembled or located for a reasonable period in order to effectuate its rights and remedies hereunder or under the Uniform Commercial Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, subject to the mandatory requirements of applicable law and the notice requirements described below, to sell or

 

-19-


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 Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate. The Administrative Agent shall be authorized at any such sale of securities (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 Administrative 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 sale of Collateral shall hold the property sold absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor, and each Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by law) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal that 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 Administrative Agent shall give the applicable Grantors no less than 10 days’ prior 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 Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent may (in its sole and absolute discretion) determine. The Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent until the sale price is paid by the purchaser or purchasers thereof, but the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Creditors 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 Agreement, any Secured Creditor may bid for or purchase, free (to the extent permitted by law) from 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 Creditor from any Grantor as a credit against the purchase price, and such Secured Creditor 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent shall have entered into such

 

-20-


an agreement all Events of Default shall have been remedied and the Obligations paid in full. As an alternative to exercising the power of sale herein conferred upon it, the Administrative 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 4.01 shall be deemed to conform to the commercial reasonableness standards as provided in Section 9-610(b) of the New York UCC or its equivalent in other jurisdictions.

SECTION 4.02. Application of Proceeds. Subject to the terms of any applicable intercreditor agreement contemplated by the Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall apply the proceeds of any collection or sale of Collateral, including any Collateral consisting of cash, as set forth in Section 2.11 of the Credit Agreement.

The Administrative Agent shall have absolute discretion 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 Administrative Agent (including pursuant to a power of sale granted by statute or under a judicial proceeding), the receipt of the Administrative 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 of the purchase money paid over to the Administrative Agent or such officer or be answerable in any way for the misapplication thereof. The Administrative Agent shall have no liability to any of the Secured Creditors for actions taken in reliance on information supplied to it as to the amounts of unpaid principal and interest and other amounts outstanding with respect to the Obligations.

SECTION 4.03. Securities Act. 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 Administrative Agent if the Administrative 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 Administrative 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 Administrative Agent may, with 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 Administrative 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 to the extent the Administrative Agent has determined that such a registration is not required by any

 

-21-


Requirements of Law and (b) may approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers (including a single potential purchaser) 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 Administrative Agent and the other Secured Creditors shall incur no responsibility or liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price that the Administrative Agent, in its sole and absolute discretion, may in good faith deem 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 purchasers (or a single purchaser) were approached. The provisions of this Section 4.03 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 Administrative Agent sells.

SECTION 4.04. Grant of License to Use Intellectual Property. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of enabling the Administrative Agent to exercise rights and remedies under this Agreement, each Grantor hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable (until terminated as provided below), nonexclusive license (exercisable without payment of royalty or other compensation to the Grantors) to use or sublicense (to its contractors, agents or representatives, or otherwise exercising its remedies hereunder) any of the 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 reasonable 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 to the extent that such non-exclusive license (a) does not violate the express terms of any agreement between a Grantor and a third party governing such Collateral consisting of Intellectual Property, or gives such third party any right of acceleration, modification, termination or cancellation therein and (b) is not prohibited by any Requirements of Law; provided that such license and sublicenses with respect to Trademarks shall be subject to the maintenance of quality standards with respect to the goods and services on which such Trademarks are used sufficient to preserve the validity of such Trademarks. The use of such license by the Administrative Agent may be exercised solely during the continuation of an Event of Default; provided that any license, sublicense or other transaction entered into by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantors, notwithstanding any subsequent cure of an Event of Default. For the avoidance of doubt, at the time of the release of the Liens on any Collateral as set forth herein, the license granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4.04 with respect to such Collateral shall automatically and immediately terminate.

ARTICLE V

Miscellaneous

SECTION 5.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Grantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 10.1 of the Credit Agreement.

 

-22-


SECTION 5.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent 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 Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and 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 this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 5.02, 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 shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default hereunder, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit 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 Administrative Agent and the Grantor or Grantors with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.12 of the Credit Agreement; provided that the Administrative Agent may, without the consent of any other Secured Creditor, consent to a departure by any Grantor from any covenant of such Grantor set forth herein to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Administrative Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.03. Administrative Agents Fees and Expenses; Indemnification. The provisions of Section 10.2 of the Credit Agreement are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis; provided that each reference therein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Grantor”.

SECTION 5.04. 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 Administrative Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 5.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Credit Parties in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Creditors and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 5.24 of the Credit Agreement.

 

-23-


SECTION 5.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. 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. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Grantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Grantor shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Grantor and the Administrative Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Grantor, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors and assigns, except that no Grantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Grantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Grantor without the approval of any other Grantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Grantor hereunder.

SECTION 5.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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 the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 5.08. Right of Set-off. If an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Grantor against any of and all the obligations of such Grantor then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although (i) such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and (ii) such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable Lender shall notify the applicable Grantor and the Administrative Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 5.08. The rights of each Lender under this Section 5.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

SECTION 5.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Appointment of Service of Process Agent. (a) THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES THEREOF, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE LOAN DOCUMENTS.

 

-24-


(b) FOR PURPOSES OF ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT BY ANY MEMBER OF THE LENDER GROUP WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH CREDIT PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE PERSONAL JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY DESIGNATES AND APPOINTS, AS ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT FOR SERVICE OF PROCESS, THE BORROWER, OR SUCH OTHER PERSON AS SUCH CREDIT PARTY SHALL DESIGNATE HEREAFTER BY WRITTEN NOTICE GIVEN TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT. THE CONSENT TO JURISDICTION HEREIN SHALL NOT BE EXCLUSIVE. THE LENDER GROUP SHALL FOR ALL PURPOSES AUTOMATICALLY, AND WITHOUT ANY ACT ON THEIR PART, BE ENTITLED TO TREAT SUCH DESIGNEE OF EACH CREDIT PARTY AS THE AUTHORIZED AGENT TO RECEIVE FOR AND ON BEHALF OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY SERVICE OF WRITS, OR SUMMONS OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS, WHICH SERVICE SHALL BE DEEMED EFFECTIVE PERSONAL SERVICE ON SUCH CREDIT PARTY SERVED WHEN DELIVERED, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH AGENT GIVES NOTICE TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY; AND DELIVERY OF SUCH SERVICE TO ITS AUTHORIZED AGENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO BE MADE WHEN PERSONALLY DELIVERED OR THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER MAILING BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO SUCH AUTHORIZED AGENT. EACH CREDIT PARTY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL TO SUCH CREDIT PARTY AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ABOVE, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. IN THE EVENT THAT, FOR ANY REASON, SUCH AGENT OR ITS SUCCESSORS SHALL NO LONGER SERVE AS AGENT OF EACH CREDIT PARTY TO RECEIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS, EACH CREDIT PARTY SHALL SERVE AND ADVISE THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT THEREOF SO THAT AT ALL TIMES EACH CREDIT PARTY WILL MAINTAIN AN AGENT TO RECEIVE SERVICE OF PROCESS ON BEHALF OF SUCH CREDIT PARTY WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT. IN THE EVENT THAT, FOR ANY REASON, SERVICE OF LEGAL PROCESS CANNOT BE MADE IN THE MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE, SUCH SERVICE MAY BE MADE IN SUCH MANNER AS PERMITTED BY LAW.

(c) EACH CREDIT PARTY AND EACH MEMBER OF THE LENDER GROUP HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION IT WOULD MAKE NOW OR HEREAFTER FOR THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT BROUGHT IN THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES SITTING IN NEW YORK COUNTY, NEW YORK, AND HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

SECTION 5.10. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH CREDIT PARTY AND EACH MEMBER OF THE LENDER GROUP TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW WAIVES, AND OTHERWISE AGREES NOT TO REQUEST, A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY COURT AND IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM OF ANY TYPE IN WHICH ANY CREDIT PARTY, ANY MEMBER OF THE LENDER GROUP OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE SUCCESSORS OR ASSIGNS IS A PARTY, AS TO ALL MATTERS AND THINGS ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RELATIONS AMONG THE PARTIES LISTED IN SECTION 5.9 OR THIS SECTION 5.10.

 

-25-


SECTION 5.11. 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 to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 5.12. Security Interest Absolute. All rights of the Administrative 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 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 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 Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Grantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.

SECTION 5.13. [Reserved].

SECTION 5.14. Additional Subsidiaries. The Grantors shall cause (i) each Subsidiary of the Borrower (other than any Excluded Subsidiary) which, from time to time, on or after the date hereof shall be required to pledge any assets) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pursuant to the Credit Agreement and (ii) consistent with the Credit Agreement, any Domestic Subsidiary, or to the extent reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, a Subsidiary that is not a Wholly Owned Subsidiary (including any consolidated Affiliate in which its Subsidiaries own no Equity Interests), which the Borrower, at its option, elects to become a Grantor, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Joinder Supplement regarding such Subsidiary (as applicable), in each case, within the time period provided in Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement. Upon execution and delivery of such documents to the Administrative Agent, any such Subsidiary shall become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Grantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.15. Administrative Agent Appointed Attorney-in-Fact. Each Grantor hereby makes, constitutes and appoints the Administrative Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Administrative Agent) 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 Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof at any time after and during the continuance of an Event of Default, which appointment is irrevocable and coupled with an interest. Without limiting the

 

-26-


generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and written notice by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower of its intent to exercise such rights, with full power of substitution either in the Administrative Agent’s name or in the name of such Grantor (a) to receive, indorse, 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 bill of lading relating to any of the Collateral; (d) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, 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) upon prior written notice to the Borrower, to notify, or to require any Grantor to notify, Account Debtors to make payment directly to the Administrative Agent; (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 Administrative Agent were the absolute owner of the Collateral for all purposes, and (i) to make, settle and adjust claims in respect of Article 9 Collateral under policies of insurance, indorsing 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; provided that nothing herein contained shall be construed as requiring or obligating the Administrative Agent to make any commitment or to make any inquiry as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by the Administrative 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 Administrative Agent and the other Secured Creditors 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, bad faith or willful misconduct or that of any of their controlled Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, counsel, agents or attorneys-in-fact.

SECTION 5.16. Intercreditor Agreement Governs. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the Liens and security interests granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the Administrative Agent hereunder or the application of proceeds (including insurance proceeds and condemnation proceeds) of any Collateral, are subject to the provisions of the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this Agreement, the terms of the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.

SECTION 5.17. Delivery of Term Loan First Lien Collateral. In accordance with the terms of the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement, all Term Loan First Lien Collateral delivered to the Term Representative shall be held by the Term Representative as gratuitous bailee for the Secured Creditors solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted under this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, prior to the Discharge of

 

-27-


Senior Secured Debt Obligations with respect to Term Loan First Lien Collateral, to the extent any Grantor is required hereunder to deliver Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the Administrative Agent and is unable to do so as a result of having previously delivered such Term Loan First Lien Collateral to the Term Representative in accordance with the terms of the Pari Term Loan Debt Security Documents, such Grantor’s obligations hereunder with respect to such delivery shall be deemed satisfied by the delivery to the Term Representative, acting as gratuitous bailee of the Administrative Agent. Terms used in this Section 5.17 and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the ABL/Term Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 5.18. No Liability. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon, or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

SECTION 5.19. Compromises and Collection of Collateral. Each Grantor and the Administrative Agent recognize that setoffs, counterclaims, defenses and other claims may be asserted by obligors with respect to certain of the Receivables, that certain of the Receivables may be or become uncollectible in whole or in part and that the expense and probability of success in litigating a disputed Receivable may exceed the amount that reasonably may be expected to be recovered with respect to a Receivable. In view of the foregoing, each Grantor agrees that the Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, compromise with the obligor on any Receivable, accept in full payment of any Receivable such amount as the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion shall determine or abandon any Receivable, and any such action by the Administrative Agent shall be commercially reasonable so long as the Administrative Agent acts in good faith based on information known to it at the time it takes any such action.

Reference is made to (i) the Term Loan Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”), among INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto and ROYAL BANK OF CANADA, as Term Administrative Agent, and (ii) the Term Collateral Agreement dated as of the date hereof (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Collateral Agreement”), among the Borrower, the other grantors party thereto and the Term Collateral Agent. The Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrower subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The obligations of the Lenders to extend such credit are conditioned upon, among other things, the execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Guarantors are affiliates of the Borrower, will derive substantial benefits from the extension of credit to the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement and are willing to execute and deliver this Agreement in order to induce the Lenders to extend such credit. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

ARTICLE II

THE GUARANTEES

SECTION 2.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees to each of the Secured Parties, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, the due and punctual payment and performance of the Secured Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Secured Obligations may be extended or renewed, in whole or in part, or amended or modified, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guarantee hereunder notwithstanding any such extension or renewal, or amendment or modification, of any of the Secured Obligations. Each Guarantor 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. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder at any time shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of any other applicable law, in each case to the extent (if any) applicable to such Guarantor.

SECTION 2.02. Guarantee of Payment; Continuing Guarantee. Each Guarantor further agrees that its guarantee hereunder constitutes a guarantee of payment when due (whether or not any bankruptcy or similar proceeding shall have stayed the accrual of collection of any of the Secured Obligations or operated as a discharge thereof) and not merely of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Term Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held for the payment of any of the Secured Obligations or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Term Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Person. Each Guarantor agrees that its guarantee hereunder is continuing in nature and applies to all of the Secured Obligations, whether currently existing or hereafter incurred.

SECTION 2.03. No Limitations. (a) Except for the termination or release of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 5.12, 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 of any of the Secured Obligations, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Secured Obligations, any impossibility in the performance of any of the Secured Obligations or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, except for the termination or release of its obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 5.12, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by:

(i) the failure of any Secured Party or any other Person to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise;

 

3


(ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment, restatement or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement;

(iii) the release of, or any impairment of or failure to perfect any Lien on, any security held by any Secured Party for any of the Secured Obligations;

(iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of any of the Secured Obligations;

(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 in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable as to which no claim has been made));

(vi) any illegality, lack of validity or lack of enforceability of any of the Secured Obligations;

(vii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Loan Party, or any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Loan Party or its assets or any resulting release or discharge of any of the Secured Obligations;

(viii) the existence of any claim, set-off or other rights that any Guarantor may have at any time against the Borrower, the Term Collateral Agent, any other Secured Party or any other Person, whether in connection with the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any unrelated transaction;

(ix) this Agreement having been determined (on whatsoever grounds) to be invalid, non-binding or unenforceable against any other Guarantor ab initio or at any time after the Effective Date;

(x) the fact that any Person that, pursuant to the Loan Documents, was required to become a party hereto may not have executed or is not effectually bound by this Agreement, whether or not this fact is known to the Secured Parties;

(xi) any action permitted or authorized hereunder; or

(xii) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations), or any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Term Collateral Agent, any Secured Party or any other Person, that might otherwise constitute a defense to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrower, any Guarantor or any other guarantor or surety (other than the payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable as to which no claim has been made)).

Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents 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 their 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.

 

4


(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 in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable as to which no claim has been made). The Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties may, at their election and in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, 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 contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable as to which no claim has been made) have been paid in full in cash. 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 Guarantor agrees that, unless released pursuant to Section 5.12(b), 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 Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored by any Secured Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization (or any analogous proceeding in any jurisdiction) 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 Term Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has at applicable law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of the Borrower or any other 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 Term Collateral 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 Term Collateral Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article III.

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 Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

 

5


SECTION 2.07. Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Guarantor hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes on the same terms and to the same extent that payments by the Borrower are required to be so made pursuant to the terms of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 2.17 of the Credit Agreement shall apply to each Guarantor, mutatis mutandis.

ARTICLE III

INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION

SECTION 3.01. 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 3.03) in respect of any payment hereunder, the Borrower agrees that (a) in the event a payment in respect of any obligation of the Borrower 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 any Term Security Document to satisfy in whole or in part any Secured Obligations owed to 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 3.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Party”) agrees (subject to Section 3.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Secured Obligations or assets of any other Guarantor (other than the Borrower) shall be sold pursuant to any Term Security Document to satisfy any Secured Obligation owed to any Secured Party and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified as provided in Section 3.01, the Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party 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 Party on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 5.13, the date of the Supplement executed and delivered by such Guarantor) 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 5.13, such other date). Any Contributing Party making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party under Section 3.01 to the extent of such payment.

 

6


SECTION 3.03. Subordination. (a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and all other rights of the Guarantors of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 3.01 and 3.02 (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 Guarantor hereby agrees that upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and after notice from the Term Collateral Agent (provided that no such notice shall be required to be given in the case of any Event of Default arising under Section 7.01(h) or 7.01(i) of the Credit Agreement), all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to, or to it by, any other Guarantor or any other Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all the Secured Obligations.

ARTICLE IV

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties that (a) the execution, delivery and performance by such Guarantor of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability or limited partnership action and, if required, action by the holders of such Guarantor’s Equity Interests, and that this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by such Guarantor and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, liquidation, court protection, administration or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law, and (b) all representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Agreement as to such Guarantor are true and correct in all material respects; provided that, to the extent such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, they are true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date; provided, further that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language is true and correct in all respects.

ARTICLE V

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 5.01. 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 Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 9.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

7


SECTION 5.02. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay by the Term Collateral Agent 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 Term Collateral Agent and the Lenders hereunder and 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 this Agreement 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 5.02, 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 shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Term Collateral Agent or any Lender 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 Term Collateral Agent and the Guarantor or Guarantors 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; provided that the Term Collateral Agent may, without the consent of any Secured Party, consent to a departure by any Guarantor from any covenant of such Guarantor set forth herein to the extent such departure is consistent with the authority of the Term Collateral Agent set forth in the definition of the term “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement” in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.03. Term Collateral Agent’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification.

(a) Each Guarantor, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, agrees to reimburse the Term Collateral Agent for its fees and expenses incurred hereunder as provided in Section 9.03(a) of the Credit Agreement; provided that each reference therein to the “Borrower” shall be deemed to be a reference to “each Guarantor.”

(b) Without limitation of its indemnification obligations under the other Loan Documents, each Guarantor, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, agrees to indemnify the Term Collateral Agent and the other Indemnitees against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses (limited, in the case of (i) legal fees and expenses to the reasonable documented and invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses of one counsel for all Indemnitees and, to the extent reasonably determined by the Term Collateral Agent to be necessary, one firm of local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) (and, in the case of an actual conflict of interest, where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional counsel for the affected Indemnitees similarly situated) for all Indemnitees (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) and (ii) the fees and expenses of any other advisor or consultant, to the reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses of such advisor or consultant, but solely to the extent that such consultant or advisor has been retained with the

Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or the Borrower or any Subsidiary or any of their respective Affiliates to the extent arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any Subsidiary and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or related expenses (w) resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (x) resulted from a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Parties (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), (y) arise from disputes between or among Indemnitees (other than claims against an Indemnitee in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an agent, an arranger or any similar roles under the Loan Documents) that do not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates or (z) any settlement effected without the Borrower’s prior consent, but if settled with the Borrower’s prior consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower will indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement in accordance with this paragraph; provided further that the Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), effect any settlement of any pending or threatened claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding in respect of which indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such Indemnitee unless (a) such settlement includes a full and unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding and (b) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of such Indemnitee.

(c) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto nor any Affiliate of any party hereto, nor any officer, director, employee, agent, controlling person, advisor or other representative of the foregoing or any successor or permitted assign of any of the foregoing shall assert and each hereby waives, any claim against any other such Person on any theory of liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages, but in any event including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Financing Transactions, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof and each such Person further agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor; provided that the foregoing shall in no event limit the Guarantors’ indemnification obligations under clause (b) above.

 

9


(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law, no party hereto or an Indemnitee shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any other Person for any direct or actual damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of information or other materials distributed to such unintended recipients by such Indemnitee through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet) in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby; except to the extent that such direct or actual damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of the Loan Documents by, such Indemnitee or its Related Parties.

(e) The provisions of this Section 5.03 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 contemplated hereby or thereby, 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 any Secured Party. All amounts due under this Section 5.03 shall be payable not later than 10 Business Days after written demand therefore; provided, however, any Indemnitee shall promptly refund an indemnification payment received hereunder to the extent that there is a final judicial determination that such Indemnitee was not entitled to indemnification with respect to such payment pursuant to this Section 5.03. Any such amounts payable as provided hereunder shall be additional Secured Obligations.

SECTION 5.04. 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 Guarantor or the Term Collateral Agent that are contained in this Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 5.05. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in this Agreement and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Parties and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5.06. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Several Agreement. 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. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guarantor when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guarantor shall have been delivered to the Term Collateral Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Term Collateral Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guarantor and the Term Collateral Agent and their respective permitted successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guarantor, the Term Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns,

 

10


except that no Guarantor shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly provided in this Agreement and the Credit Agreement. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Guarantor and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guarantor without the approval of any other Guarantor and without affecting the obligations of any other Guarantor hereunder.

SECTION 5.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement 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 the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 5.08. Right of Set-Off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender 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, in whatever currency) at any time held and other obligations (in whatever currency) at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Guarantor against any of and all the obligations of such Guarantor then due and owing under this Agreement held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although (i) such obligations may be contingent or unmatured and (ii) such obligations are owed to a branch or office of such Lender different from the branch or office holding such deposit or obligated on such Indebtedness. The applicable Lender shall notify the applicable Guarantor and the Term Collateral Agent of such setoff and application; provided that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff and application under this Section 5.08. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section 5.08 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender and its Affiliates may have.

SECTION 5.09. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process; Appointment of Service of Process Agent. (a) This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, 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 parties hereto 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 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 shall affect any right that the Term Collateral Agent or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement against any Guarantor or its respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

 

11


(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that 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 in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 5.09. 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) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 5.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

(e) Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers the Borrower as its designee, appointee and agent to receive, accept and acknowledge for and on its behalf, and in respect of its property, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents that may be served in any such action or proceeding and the Borrower hereby accepts such designation and appointment.

SECTION 5.10. 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 HEREBY OR 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 AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 5.10.

SECTION 5.11. 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 to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 5.12. Termination or Release. (a) Subject to Section 2.04, this Agreement and the Guarantees made herein shall terminate automatically on the Termination Date.

 

12


(b) The guarantees made herein shall also terminate and be released at the time or times and in the manner set forth in Section 9.14 of the Credit Agreement.

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 5.12, the Term Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release so long as the applicable Loan Party shall have provided the Term Collateral Agent such certifications or documents as the Term Collateral Agent shall reasonably request in order to demonstrate compliance with this Section 5.12. Any execution and delivery of documents by the Term Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 5.12 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Term Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party.

SECTION 5.13. Additional Guarantors. Additional Persons may become Guarantors after the date hereof as contemplated by the Credit Agreement. Upon execution and delivery by the Term Collateral Agent and a Person of a Supplement, any such Person shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as such herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Guarantor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any Person as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.14. Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party, jointly and severally, hereby absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of such Loan Party’s obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in respect of Secured Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Loan Party shall only be liable under this Section 5.14 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 5.14, or otherwise under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, voidable under applicable law, including fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer laws, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Loan Party under this Section 5.14 shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date, in each case, in accordance with and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 9.05 of the Credit Agreement. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party intends that this Section 5.16 constitute, and this Section 5.14 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

INSTALLED BUILDING PRODUCTS ANNOUNCES SUCCESSFUL REFINANCING

Columbus, Ohio, April 17, 2017. Installed Building Products, Inc. (the “Company”) (NYSE: IBP), an industry-leading installer of insulation products, announced today that the Company has successfully refinanced its borrowings under its existing Term Loan and Delayed Draw Term Loan facilities, and closed its previously announced $300 million Term Loan B facility and $100 million ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

The new $300 million Term Loan B facility matures in 2024 and has an interest rate of LIBOR plus 300 basis points with a LIBOR floor of one percent. The Term Loan B facility has no financial maintenance covenants and is rated BB by S&P Global Ratings and B1 by Moody’s Investors Service.

The new $100 million ABL Revolving Credit Facility has a five-year duration and an interest rate of LIBOR plus 125 – 175 basis points based on excess availability.

“I am pleased with the robust demand and favorable terms of our Term Loan B facility, reflecting our financial partners’ confidence in IBP’s compelling financial model and growth-oriented business plan,” stated Jeff Edwards, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The additional capital from the new $300 million facility extends IBP’s average weighted debt maturity and provides us with significant financial flexibility to continue achieving our established growth strategies.”

With the completion of the transaction, IBP now has total indebtedness of approximately $369 million, comprised of the new, $300 million term loan, $56 million in equipment financing, and $13 million in seller notes and non-competes. With approximately $100 million in cash, resulting in net total indebtedness of $269 million, IBP continues to have a conservative capital structure.

The Royal Bank of Canada served as Administrative Agent for the Term Loan B facility, and RBC Capital Markets, UBS Securities LLC, and Jefferies Finance LLC, served as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners.

The $100 million ABL Revolving Credit Facility was led by a syndicate of financial institutions including SunTrust Bank as Administrative Agent. Other banks participating in the syndication were Key Bank, Regions Bank and US Bank.

Additional details on the credit facilities may be found in the Form 8-K filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
