2.5                                 Procedure for Revolving Credit Borrowing.  The Borrower may borrow under the Revolving Credit Commitments during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period on any Business Day, provided that the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice in a Notice of Borrowing (which Notice of Borrowing must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, (a) three Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Eurodollar Loans, or (b) one Business Day prior to the requested Borrowing Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans), specifying (i) the amount and Type of Revolving Credit Loans to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date and (iii) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, the length of the initial Interest Period therefor.  Any Revolving Credit Loans made on the Closing Date shall initially be Base Rate Loans.  Each borrowing under the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be in an amount equal to (x) in the case of Base Rate Loans, $1,000,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof (or, if the then aggregate Available Revolving Credit Commitments are less than $1,000,000, such lesser amount) and (y) in the case of Eurodollar Loans, $5,000,000 or a $1,000,000 whole multiple in excess thereof; provided, that the Swing Line Lender may request, on behalf of the Borrower, borrowings under the Revolving Credit Commitments which are Base Rate Loans in other amounts pursuant to Section 2.7.  Upon receipt of any such Notice of Borrowing from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender thereof.  Each Revolving Credit Lender will make the amount of its pro rata share of each borrowing available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Borrower at the Funding Office prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the Borrowing Date requested by the Borrower in funds immediately available to the Administrative Agent.  Such borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent.

 

2.6                                 Swing Line Commitment.  (a)  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swing Line Lender agrees to make a portion of the credit otherwise available to the Borrower under the Revolving Credit Commitments from time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period by making swing line loans (“Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrower; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time shall not exceed the Swing Line Commitment then in effect (notwithstanding that the Swing Line Loans outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the Swing Line Lender’s other outstanding Revolving Credit Loans hereunder, may exceed the Swing Line Commitment then in effect) and (ii) the Borrower shall not request, and the Swing Line Lender shall not make, any Swing Line Loan if, after giving effect to the making of such Swing Line Loan, the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitments would be less than zero.  During the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the Borrower may use the Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, repaying and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof.  Swing Line Loans shall be Base Rate Loans only.

 

(b)                                 The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Swing Line Loans on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

 

2.7                                 Procedure for Swing Line Borrowing; Refunding of Swing Line Loans.  (a)  Whenever the Borrower desires that the Swing Line Lender make Swing Line Loans it shall

 

32



 

give the Swing Line Lender irrevocable telephonic notice confirmed promptly in writing (which telephonic notice must be received by the Swing Line Lender not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the proposed Borrowing Date), specifying (i) the amount to be borrowed and (ii) the requested Borrowing Date (which shall be a Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period).  Each borrowing under the Swing Line Commitment shall be in an amount equal to $500,000 or a $100,000 multiple in excess thereof.  Not later than 3:00 P.M., New York City time, on the Borrowing Date specified in a notice in respect of Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office an amount in immediately available funds equal to the amount of the Swing Line Loan to be made by the Swing Line Lender.  The Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower on such Borrowing Date in immediately available funds.

 

(b)                                 The Swing Line Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole and absolute discretion may, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably directs the Swing Line Lender to act on its behalf), on one Business Day’s notice given by the Swing Line Lender no later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, request each Revolving Credit Lender to make, and each Revolving Credit Lender hereby agrees to make, a Revolving Credit Loan, in an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the aggregate amount of the Swing Line Loans (the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”) outstanding on the date of such notice, to repay the Swing Line Lender.  Each Revolving Credit Lender shall make the amount of such Revolving Credit Loan available to the Administrative Agent at the Funding Office in immediately available funds, not later than 10:00 A.M., New York City time, one Business Day after the date of such notice.  The proceeds of such Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately made available by the Administrative Agent to the Swing Line Lender for application by the Swing Line Lender to the repayment of the Refunded Swing Line Loans.  The Borrower irrevocably authorizes the Swing Line Lender to charge the Borrower’s accounts with the Administrative Agent (up to the amount available in each such account) in order to immediately pay the amount of such Refunded Swing Line Loans to the extent amounts received from the Revolving Credit Lenders are not sufficient to repay in full such Refunded Swing Line Loans.

 

(c)                                  If prior to the time a Revolving Credit Loan would have otherwise been made pursuant to Section 2.7(b), one of the events described in Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower or if for any other reason, as determined by the Swing Line Lender in its sole discretion, Revolving Credit Loans may not be made as contemplated by Section 2.7(b), each Revolving Credit Lender shall, on the date such Revolving Credit Loan was to have been made pursuant to the notice referred to in Section 2.7(b) (the “Refunding Date”), purchase for cash an undivided participating interest in the then outstanding Swing Line Loans by paying to the Swing Line Lender an amount (the “Swing Line Participation Amount”) equal to (i) such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Percentage times (ii) the sum of the aggregate principal amount of Swing Line Loans then outstanding which were to have been repaid with such Revolving Credit Loans.

 

(d)                                 Whenever, at any time after the Swing Line Lender has received from any Revolving Credit Lender such Lender’s Swing Line Participation Amount, the Swing Line Lender receives any payment on account of the Swing Line Loans, the Swing Line Lender will distribute to such Revolving Credit Lender its Swing Line Participation Amount (appropriately

 

33



 

adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded and, in the case of principal and interest payments, to reflect such Revolving Credit Lender’s pro rata portion of such payment if such payment is not sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on all Swing Line Loans then due); provided, however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swing Line Lender is required to be returned, such Revolving Credit Lender will return to the Swing Line Lender any portion thereof previously distributed to it by the Swing Line Lender.

 

(e)                                  Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to make the Loans referred to in Section 2.7(b) and to purchase participating interests pursuant to Section 2.7(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender or the Borrower may have against the Swing Line Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower; (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other Revolving Credit Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

 

2.8                                 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Indebtedness.  (a)  The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the appropriate Revolving Credit Lender or Term Loan Lender, as the case may be, (i) the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Credit Loan of such Revolving Credit Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8), (ii) the then unpaid principal amount of each Swing Line Loan of such Swing Line Lender on the Revolving Credit Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8) and (iii) the principal amount of each Term Loan of such Term Loan Lender in installments according to the amortization schedule set forth in Section 2.3 (or on such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8).  The Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of the Loans from time to time outstanding from the date hereof until payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Section 2.15.

 

(b)                                 Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

 

(c)                                  The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Borrower, shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(d), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and any Note evidencing such Loan, the Type thereof and each Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) both the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.  At the request of any Lender, at any time after an amendment, modification or waiver has been circulated by the Administrative Agent

 

34



 

(but prior to the effectiveness of such amendment, modification or waiver), the Administrative Agent will provide such Lender with a list of the names of all the Lenders.

 

(d)                                 The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.8(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to such Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(e)                                  The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing any Term Loans, Revolving Credit Loans or Swing Line Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit F-1, F-2 or F-3, respectively, with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (such notes, respectively, “Term Notes”, Revolving Credit Notes” and “Swing Line Notes”).

 

2.9                                 Commitment Fees, etc.  (a)  The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee for the period from and including the Closing Date to the last day of the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, computed at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender during the period for which payment is made, payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, commencing on the first of such dates to occur after the date hereof.

 

(b)                                 The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent the fees in the amounts and on the dates from time to time agreed to in writing by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent including, without limitation, pursuant to the Fee Letter.

 

2.10                           Termination or Reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments.  The Borrower shall have the right, upon not less than three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments; provided that no such termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permitted if, after giving effect thereto and to any prepayments of the Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans made on the effective date thereof, the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitments.  Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments then in effect.

 

2.11                           Optional Prepayments.  The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, upon irrevocable notice delivered to the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days prior thereto in the case of Eurodollar Loans and at least one Business Day prior thereto in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall (i) designate whether the Borrower is prepaying Revolving Credit Loans and/or Term Loans and (ii) specify the date and amount of prepayment and whether the

 

35



 

prepayment is of Eurodollar Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a Eurodollar Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.21.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.  If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans (unless all Revolving Credit Loans are being repaid and the Revolving Credit Commitments terminated) that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid.  Partial prepayments of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof.  Partial prepayments of Swing Line Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of $100,000 or a whole multiple in excess thereof.

 

2.12                           Mandatory Prepayments and Commitment Reductions.  (a)  Unless the Required Prepayment Lenders shall otherwise agree, subject to Section 2.18(d), if any Capital Stock shall be issued (excluding (i) Capital Stock issued to employees of TTPC or its Subsidiaries so long as the aggregate amount of net cash proceeds therefrom does not exceed $5,000,000, (ii) Capital Stock (consisting of treasury stock that was purchased by TTPC from the Sponsors) sold to senior management of TTPC as part of the Management Investment and (iii) Capital Stock (consisting of treasury stock that was purchased from senior management or employees) sold to other senior management or employees), or Indebtedness incurred, by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (excluding any Indebtedness incurred in accordance with Sections 7.2(a)-(h), (j) and (k) as in effect on the date of this Agreement), an amount equal to, in the case of the issuance of Capital Stock, 50% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof, or, in the case of the incurrence of Indebtedness, 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied on the date of such issuance or incurrence toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in Section 2.12(d).

 

(b)                                 Unless the Required Prepayment Lenders shall otherwise agree, subject to Section 2.18(d), if on any date any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied on such date toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in Section 2.12(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of Recovery Events that may be excluded from the foregoing requirement pursuant to a Reinvestment Notice shall not exceed $10,000,000 in any fiscal year of the Borrower and (ii) on each Reinvestment Prepayment Date, an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in Section 2.12(d).

 

(c)                                  Unless the Required Prepayment Lenders shall otherwise agree, subject to Section 2.18(d), if, for any fiscal year of the Borrower commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2003 (for the period from the Closing Date to December 31, 2003), there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply the ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow toward the prepayment of the Term Loans and the reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments as set forth in Section 2.12(d).  Each such prepayment and commitment reduction shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow

 

36



 

Application Date”) no later than five days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of the Borrower referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.

 

(d)                                 Subject to Section 2.18, amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments and Commitment reductions made pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be applied, first, to the prepayment of the Term Loans, second, to reduce permanently the Revolving Credit Commitments and, third, to the Borrower or such other Person as shall be lawfully entitled thereto.  Any such reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be accompanied by prepayment of the Revolving Credit Loans and/or Swing Line Loans to the extent, if any, that the Total Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the amount of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments as so reduced, provided that if the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Swing Line Loans then outstanding is less than the amount of the Total Revolving Credit Commitments as so reduced (because L/C Obligations constitute a portion thereof), the Borrower shall, to the extent of the balance of such excess, replace outstanding Letters of Credit and/or deposit an amount in immediately available funds in a cash collateral account established with the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (and each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure all L/C Obligations from time to time outstanding and all other Obligations).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the amount of such excess, the Borrower shall, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the amount of such excess over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim.  The application of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11 and this Section 2.12 shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans; provided that if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and solely on terms and conditions acceptable to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall be entitled to temporarily place any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.12 in a cash collateral account to minimize the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21.  Each prepayment of the Loans under Section 2.11 and this Section 2.12 (except in the case of Revolving Credit Loans (unless the Revolving Credit Loans are being repaid in full and the Revolving Credit Commitments terminated) that are Base Rate Loans and Swing Line Loans) shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment to the applicable Lender on the amount prepaid.

 

2.13                           Conversion and Continuation Options.  (a)  The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Eurodollar Loans to Base Rate Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior irrevocable notice of such election, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  The Borrower may elect from time to time to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior

 

37



 

irrevocable notice of such election (which notice shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period therefor), provided that no Base Rate Loan under a particular Facility may be converted into a Eurodollar Loan (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversions or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

 

(b)                                 Any Eurodollar Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loans, provided that no Eurodollar Loan under a particular Facility may be continued as such (i) when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of such Facility have determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuations or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the final scheduled termination or maturity date of such Facility, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as described above in this paragraph or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the preceding proviso such Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period.  Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof.

 

2.14                           Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Eurodollar Tranches.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions, continuations and optional prepayments of Eurodollar Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

 

2.15                           Interest Rates and Payment Dates.  (a)  Each Eurodollar Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurodollar Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin.

 

(b)                                 Each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

 

(c)                                  (i)  If all or a portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), all outstanding Loans and Reimbursement Obligations (whether or not overdue) shall bear interest at a rate per annum that is equal to (x) in the case of the Loans, the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section plus 2.0% or (y) in the case of Reimbursement Obligations, the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.0%, and (ii) if all or a portion of any interest payable on any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or any commitment fee or other

 

38



 

amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2.0% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility plus 2.0%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such non-payment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment).

 

(d)                                 Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable from time to time on demand.

 

2.16                           Computation of Interest and Fees.  (a)  Interest, fees and commissions payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that, with respect to Base Rate Loans the rate of interest on which is calculated on the basis of the Prime Rate, the interest thereon shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year for the actual days elapsed.  The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurodollar Rate.  Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Base Rate or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective.  The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.

 

(b)                                 Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.  The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.15(a).

 

2.17                           Inability to Determine Interest Rate.  If prior to the first day of any Interest Period:

 

(a)                                  the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, or

 

(b)                                 the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as conclusively certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,

 

the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter.  If such notice is given (x) any Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period

 

39



 

shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurodollar Loans shall be continued as Base Rate Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, to Base Rate Loans.  Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurodollar Loans.

 

2.18                           Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.  (a)  Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Term Loan Percentages or Revolving Credit Percentages, as the case may be, of the relevant Lenders.  Subject to Section 2.18(c), each payment (other than prepayments) in respect of principal or interest in respect of the Loans, and each payment in respect of fees or expenses payable hereunder shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.  The application of any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.18 shall be made, first, to Base Rate Loans and, second, to Eurodollar Loans.

 

(b)                                 Each payment (including each prepayment) of the Term Loans outstanding, except prepayments made with the proceeds of an issuance of Capital Stock required by Section 2.12(a), shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding such Term Loans pro rata based on the principal amount of such Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders, and shall be applied to the installments of such Term Loans pro rata based on the remaining outstanding principal amount of such installments.  Each prepayment of Term Loans required by Section 2.12(a) to be made with the proceeds of Capital Stock shall be allocated among the Term Loan Lenders holding such Term Loans pro rata based upon the principal amount of such Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lenders and shall be applied to the installments of such Term Loans in the inverse order of the scheduled maturities of such installments.  Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

 

(c)                                  Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Credit Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Credit Loans then held by the Revolving Credit Lenders.  Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in connection with any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing Lender.

 

(d)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.12 or this Section 2.18, so long as any Term Loans are outstanding, each Term Loan Lender may, at its option, decline up to 100% of the portion of any mandatory prepayment applicable to the Term Loans of such Lender; accordingly, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment described in Section 2.12 that is allocated to Term Loans (such amount, the “Prepayment Amount”), the Borrower will, (i) in the case of any optional prepayment which the Borrower wishes to make, not later than 10 Business Days prior to the date on which the Borrower wishes to make such optional prepayment, and (ii) in the case of any mandatory prepayment required to be made pursuant to Section 2.12, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Term Loans, as provided in Sections 2.12(d) and 2.18(b), on the date specified in Section 2.12 for such

prepayment, (x) deposit such amount in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent pending application of such amount in accordance with this Section 2.18(d), and (y) give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Term Loan Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.  As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Term Loan Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall specify that prepayment of the relevant Term Loans of such Lender will be made on the date (each a “Prepayment Date”) that is 10 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, in an amount equal to the portion of the Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s Term Loans unless such Term Loan Lender elects to decline such prepayment.  On the Prepayment Date, (i) the Administrative Agent shall apply from the amount deposited in the cash collateral account pursuant to this Section 2.18(d) the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Term Loans in respect of which the Term Loan Lenders have accepted prepayment as described below, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Borrower from the amount deposited in such cash collateral account the remaining portion of the Prepayment Amount not accepted by the Term Loan Lenders.  Each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure all Obligations from time to time outstanding.  Each Term Loan Lender shall evidence its election to decline up to 100% of that portion of the Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as a prepayment on such Lender’s Term Loans by written confirmation as specified in such Prepayment Option Notice; failure to provide such written confirmation shall be deemed to be an election to accept all of such portion of the Prepayment Amount.

 

(e)                                  All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Payment Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds.  The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received.  If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurodollar Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such 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 extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.

 

(f)                                    Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount.  If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the

 

41



 

required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent.  A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower.

 

(g)                                 Subject to Section 2.18(d), unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment being made hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount.  If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days of such required date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.

 

2.19                           Requirements of Law.  (a)  If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

 

(i)                                     shall subject any Lender to any tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Letter of Credit, any Application or any Eurodollar Loan made by it, or change the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (except for Non-Excluded Taxes covered by Section 2.20 and changes in the rate of tax on the overall net income of such Lender);
 
(ii)                                  shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurodollar Rate hereunder; or
 
(iii)                               shall impose on such Lender any other condition;
 

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurodollar Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay

 

42



 

such Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.  If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.

 

(b)                                 If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender on an after-tax basis  for such reduction.

 

(c)                                  A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by any Lender to the Borrower setting forth the calculation thereof in reasonable detail (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

(d)                                 No Lender shall be entitled to compensation under this Section 2.19 for any costs incurred or reductions suffered with respect to any date that it has such costs unless it shall have notified the Borrower that it will demand compensation for such costs or reductions under paragraph (a) or (b) above, as applicable, not more than 180 days after the later of (i) such date, (ii) the date on which it shall have become aware of such costs or reductions and (iii) the date on which any relevant Requirement of Law shall be effective.

 

2.20                           Taxes.  (a)  All payments made by or on behalf of  the Borrower under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any present or future income, stamp or other taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings, now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority, excluding net income taxes and franchise taxes (imposed in lieu of net income taxes) imposed on any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender as a result of a present or former connection between such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than any such connection arising solely from such Arranger’s, such Agent’s or such Lender’s having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received a payment under, or enforced, this Agreement or any other Loan Document).  If any such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, duties, charges, fees, deductions or withholdings (“Non-Excluded Taxes”) are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender hereunder or any other Loan Document, the amounts so

 

43



 

payable to such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Arranger, such Agent or such Lender (after payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts that would have been received hereunder had such withholding not been required; provided, however, that the Borrower or a Guarantor shall not be required to increase any such amounts payable to any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes (i) that are attributable to such Arranger’s, such Agent’s or such Lender’s failure to comply with the requirements of paragraph (f) or (g) of this Section, or (ii) in the case of any Non-U.S. Lender (as defined in paragraph (f) of this Section), that are United States withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to such Lender at the time such Lender becomes a party to this Agreement, except to the extent that such Lender’s assignor (if any) was entitled, at the time of assignment, to receive additional amounts from the Borrower or a Guarantor with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to this Section 2.20(a).

 

(b)                                 The Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law.

 

(c)                                  The Borrower shall indemnify each Arranger, each Agent and any Lender for the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes (to the extent the Borrower would be required to pay additional amounts with respect to such Non-Excluded Taxes pursuant to Section 2.20(a)) or Other Taxes arising in connection with payments made under this Agreement (including, without limitation, any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.20) paid by such Arranger, such Agent or Lender or any of their respective Affiliates and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto.  Payment under this indemnification shall be made within ten days from the date any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates makes written demand therefor.

 

(d)                                 Whenever any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Arranger or the relevant Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower showing payment thereof.

 

(e)                                  The agreements in this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

(f)                                    Each Lender (or Transferee) that is not a citizen or resident of the United States of America, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in or under the laws of the United States of America (or any jurisdiction thereof), or any estate or trust that is subject to federal income taxation regardless of the source of its income (a “Non-U.S. Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) two copies of either U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Form W-8ECI, or, in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest,” a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit H to the effect that such Lender is eligible for a complete exemption from withholding of U.S. taxes under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code and a Form W-8BEN, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto properly completed and duly executed by such Non-U.S.

 

44



 

Lender claiming complete exemption from, or a reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-U.S. Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related participation).  In addition, each Non-U.S. Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-U.S. Lender.  Each Non-U.S. Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the U.S. taxing authorities for such purpose).  Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-U.S. Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-U.S. Lender is not legally able to deliver.

 

(g)                                 A Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of non-U.S. withholding tax under the law of the jurisdiction in which the Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with respect to payment under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the reasonable request of the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate, provided that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation and in such Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would not materially prejudice the legal position of such Lender.

 

(h)                                 To the extent that any Lender becomes aware in its sole determination that it shall be entitled to a refund in respect of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified under this Section 2.20 or with respect to which any sum payable hereunder has been increased and paid by any Borrower under this Section 2.20, the applicable Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the availability of such refund and shall, within 30 days after receipt of a request by the Borrower, apply for such refund if it can do so without any adverse consequences for such Lender.  Within 30 days following receipt of any such refund by a Lender, the Lender shall repay the amount of such refund to the Borrower, plus all interest received with respect thereto, net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such Lender in securing such refund.

 

2.21                           Indemnity.  The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurodollar Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment or conversion of Eurodollar Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.  Such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin

 

45



 

included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market.  A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.  This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

2.22                           Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Loans, continue Eurodollar Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Loans shall forthwith be canceled and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law.  If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.21.

 

2.23                           Change of Lending Office.  Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided, further, that nothing in this Section shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of any Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22.

 

2.24                           Substitution of Lenders .  Upon receipt by the Borrower from any Lender (an “Affected Lender”) of a claim under Sections 2.19, 2.20 or 2.22, the Borrower may replace such Affected Lender by designating another Lender or another financial institution in each case that is willing to acquire all of such Affected Lender’s Loans and its Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (iii) the Borrower shall repay (or the replacement bank or institution shall purchase at par) all Loans, accrued interest and other amounts owing to such Affected Lender prior to the date of replacement, (iv) the Borrower shall be liable to such Affected Lender under Section 2.21 if any Eurodollar Loan owing to such Affected Lender shall be prepaid (or purchased) other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (v) the replacement bank or institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vi) the replacement of such Affected Lender with the replacement bank or institution shall be consummated in accordance with Section 10.6 hereof (provided that the Borrower or the replacement Lender shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee) and the Borrower shall pay all additional amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20 or

 

46



 

2.22, as the case may be, to the extent such additional amounts were incurred on or prior to the consummation of such replacement.

 

SECTION 3.  LETTERS OF CREDIT

 

3.1                                 L/C Commitment.  (a)  Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Credit Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), agrees to issue standby letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower on any Business Day during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Issuing Lender; provided that the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment or (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Credit Commitments would be less than zero.  Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date which is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above).

 

(b)                                 The Issuing Lender shall not at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law.

 

3.2                                 Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit.  The Borrower may from time to time request that the Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the Issuing Lender, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, at its address for notices specified herein an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may request.  Upon receipt of any Application, the Issuing Lender will process such Application 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 (but in no event shall the Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the Issuing Lender and the Borrower.  The Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof.  The Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof).

 

3.3                                 Fees and Other Charges.  (a)  The Borrower will pay a fee on the aggregate drawable amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, shared ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit.  In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee on the aggregate drawable amount of each outstanding Letter of Credit in an amount to be agreed by the Issuing

 

47



 

Bank and the Borrower, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date after the issuance date of such Letter of Credit.

 

(b)                                 In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse the Issuing Lender for such normal and customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.

 

3.4                                 L/C Participations.  (a)  The Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce the Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit hereunder, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from the Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions hereinafter stated, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage in the Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under each Letter of Credit issued hereunder and the amount of each draft paid by the Issuing Lender thereunder.  Each L/C Participant unconditionally and irrevocably agrees with the Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which the Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender, regardless of the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, upon demand, at the Issuing Lender’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Credit Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed.

 

(b)                                 If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360.  If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility.  A certificate of the Issuing Lender submitted to any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.

 

(c)                                  Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), the Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that

 

48



 

in the event that any such payment received by the Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by the Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it.

 

3.5                                 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower.  The Borrower agrees to reimburse the Issuing Lender on each date on which the Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit and paid by the Issuing Lender (or, with the consent of the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent on the following Business Day if such notification is received after 11:00 a.m.) for the amount of (a) such draft so paid and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with such payment (the amounts described in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) in respect of any drawing, collectively, the “Payment Amount”).  Each such payment shall be made to the Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified herein in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds.  Interest shall be payable on each Payment Amount from the date of the applicable drawing until payment in full at the rate set forth in (i) until the second Business Day following the date of the applicable drawing, Section 2.15(b) and (ii) thereafter, Section 2.15(c).  Each drawing under any Letter of Credit shall (unless an event of the type described in clause (i) or (ii) of Section 8(f) shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the Borrower, in which case the procedures specified in Section 3.4 for funding by L/C Participants shall apply) constitute a request by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.5 of Base Rate Loans (or, at the option of the Administrative Agent and the Swing Line Lender in their sole discretion, a borrowing pursuant to Section 2.7 of Swing Line Loans) in the amount of such drawing.  The Borrowing Date with respect to such borrowing shall be the first date on which a borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans (or, if applicable, Swing Line Loans) could be made, pursuant to Section 2.5 (or, if applicable, Section 2.7), if the Administrative Agent had received a notice of such borrowing at the time of such drawing under such Letter of Credit.

 

3.6                                 Obligations Absolute.  The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against the Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person.  The Borrower also agrees with the Issuing Lender that the Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things, the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged, or any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred or any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee.  The Issuing Lender shall not be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit.  The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by the Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in accordance with the standards or care specified in the UCC of the State of New York, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower.

 

49



 

3.7                                 Letter of Credit Payments.  If any draft shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower of the date and amount thereof.  The responsibility of the Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any draft presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents (including each draft) delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.

 

3.8                                 Applications.  To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.

 

SECTION 4.  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

To induce the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby jointly and severally represent and warrant to each Arranger, each Agent and each Lender that:

 

4.1                                 Financial Condition.  (a)  The unaudited pro forma consolidated and consolidating balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2003 (including the notes thereto) (the “Pro Forma Balance Sheet”), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to each Lender, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the consummation of the Acquisition, (ii) the Loans to be made and the Senior Notes and Seller Notes to be issued on the Closing Date and the use of proceeds thereof and (iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing.  The Pro Forma Balance Sheet has been prepared based on the best information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly on a pro forma basis the estimated financial position of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2003, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.

 

(b)                                 The audited consolidated and unaudited consolidating balance sheets of the Borrower as at December 31, 2002, December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal years ended on such dates, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (as to such consolidated financial statements), present fairly the consolidated and consolidating financial condition of the Borrower as at such date, and the consolidated and consolidating results of its operations and its consolidated and consolidating cash flows for the respective fiscal years then ended.  The unaudited consolidated and consolidating balance sheet of the Borrower as at March 31, 2003, and the related unaudited consolidated and consolidating statements of income and cash flows for the  three month period ended on such date present fairly the consolidated and consolidating financial condition of the Borrower as at such date, and the consolidated and consolidating results of its operations and its consolidated and consolidating cash flows for the three-month period then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes).  Each of the unaudited consolidated and consolidating balance sheets of the Borrower as at April 30, 2003, and the related unaudited consolidated and consolidating statements of income and cash flows for the monthly periods ended on such dates

 

50



 

present fairly the consolidated and consolidating financial condition of the Borrower as at such dates, and the consolidated and consolidating results of its operations and its consolidated and consolidating cash flows for the periods then ended (subject to normal year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes).  All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein).  TTPC, LP, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not have any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including, without limitation, any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this paragraph.  During the period from December 31, 2002 to and including the date hereof there has been no Disposition by the Borrower of any material part of its business or Property.

 

4.2                                 No Change.  Since March 31, 2003, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.3                                 Existence; Compliance with Law.  Each of TTPC, LP, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, (b) has the requisite power and authority, and the legal right, to own and operate its Property, to lease the Property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other registered entity and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of Property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so qualified could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.4                                 Organizational Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations.  Each Loan Party has the corporate, limited liability company or limited partnership power and authority, as applicable, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents and Acquisition Documentation to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to borrow hereunder.  Each Loan Party has taken all necessary action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents and Acquisition Documentation to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the Acquisition and the borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Loan Documents or any Acquisition Documentation, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices described in Schedule 4.4, which consents, authorizations, filings and notices have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect and (ii) the filings referred to in Section 4.19.  Each Loan Document and Acquisition Documentation has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto.  This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document and Acquisition Documentation upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as

 

51



 

enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

 

4.5                                 No Legal Bar.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Senior Note Documentation, the Seller Note Documentation and the other Acquisition Documentation, the issuance of Letters of Credit, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate any Requirement of Law or any Contractual Obligation of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of their respective properties or revenues pursuant to any Requirement of Law or any such Contractual Obligation (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents).  No Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation applicable to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.6                                 No Material Litigation.  No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, threatened by or against any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries or against any of their respective properties or revenues (a) with respect to any of the Loan Documents or the Acquisition Documentation or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (b) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.7                                 No Default.  No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default under or with respect to any of its Contractual Obligations in any respect that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  No Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 

4.8                                 Ownership of Property; Liens.  Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries is the sole owner of, legally and beneficially, and has good, marketable and insurable title in fee simple to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its Real Estate, and good title to, or a valid leasehold interest in, all its other Property, and none of such Property is subject to any claims, liabilities, obligations, charges or restrictions of any kind, nature or description, or to any Lien except for any Permitted Lien.  None of the Pledged Stock is subject to any Lien except for Permitted Liens.

 

4.9                                 Intellectual Property.  (a)  Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries owns, or is licensed to use, the Intellectual Property used in the conduct of its business as currently conducted.  No claim has been asserted in writing or, to the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, is pending by any Person challenging the use of any Intellectual Property used in the conduct of the Loan Parties’ businesses or the validity or effectiveness of any Intellectual Property used in the conduct of the Loan Parties’ businesses, nor does TTPC, LP or the Borrower know of any valid basis for any such claim, which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  To the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, the use of any Intellectual Property used in the conduct of the Loan Parties’ businesses does not infringe on the rights of any Person in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

52

(d)                                 As of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the Acquisition, Schedule 4.9(d) (i) identifies each of the registered copyrights and applications for copyright registrations owned, or otherwise held, by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries and identifies the owner of such item and (ii) specifies as to each, the jurisdiction in which such item has been registered (or, if applicable, in which an application for such registration has been filed), including the respective registration or application numbers and applicable dates of registration or application.

 

(e)                                  As of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the Acquisition, Schedule 4.9(e) identifies all licenses, sublicenses and other agreements relating to Intellectual Property to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is a party and pursuant to which (i) TTPC, LP, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a licensor or sub-licensor or (ii) any other Person is authorized to use any Intellectual Property owned by any Loan Party of any of its Subsidiaries as a licensee or sub-licensee.

 

4.10                           Taxes.  (a)  Each Loan Party and each of its Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed all federal, state and other material tax returns that are required to be filed and has paid all taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or on any assessments made against it or any of its Property and all other taxes, fees or other charges imposed on it or any of its Property by any Governmental Authority (other than any taxes, the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of TTPC, LP, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be); the contents of all such material tax returns are correct and complete in all material respects, no tax Lien has been filed (other than Permitted Liens), and, to the knowledge of TTPC, LP and the Borrower, no material claim is being asserted, with respect to any such tax, fee or other charge (other than any taxes, the amount or validity of which are currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of TTPC, LP, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, as the case may be).  No Loan Party and no Subsidiary thereof (i) intends to treat the Loans, the Acquisition or any other transaction contemplated hereby as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.6011-4) and (ii) is aware of any facts or events that would result in such treatment.

 

53



 

(b)                                 In connection with the Merger, based on current estimates of asset values, it is expected that TTPC will have a tax basis in goodwill and other amortizable intangibles equal to approximately $800,000,000, which shall be amortizable over a fifteen year period pursuant to section 197 of the Code.

 

(c)                                  As of the Closing Date, the Borrower is a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes.  It is intended that the Borrower will continue to be a partnership or disregarded as an entity separate from TTPC for United States federal income tax purposes.

 

4.11                           Federal Regulations.  No part of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit will be used for purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) or for the purpose of purchasing, carrying or trading in any securities under such circumstances as to involve the Borrower in a violation of Regulation X or to involve any broker or dealer in a violation of Regulation T.  No indebtedness being reduced or retired out of the proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit was or will be incurred for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U).  Following application of the proceeds of the Loans and Letters of Credit, “margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) does not constitute more than 25% of the value of the assets of TTPC, LP, the Borrower and its Subsidiaries.  None of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the direct and indirect use of proceeds of the Loans and Letters of Credit) will violate or result in a violation of Regulation T, Regulation U or Regulation X.  If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form G-3 or FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U.

 

4.12                           Labor Matters.  There are no strikes, stoppages, slowdowns or other labor disputes against any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries pending or, to the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, threatened that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  Hours worked by and payment made to employees of any Loan Party and its Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Requirement of Law dealing with such matters that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.  All payments due from any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries on account of employee health and welfare insurance that (individually or in the aggregate) could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect if not paid have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of TTPC, LP, the Borrower or the relevant Subsidiary.

 

4.13                           ERISA.  Neither a Reportable Event nor an “accumulated funding deficiency” (within the meaning of Section 412 of the Code or Section 302 of ERISA) has occurred during the five-year period prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made with respect to any Plan, and each Plan has complied in all material respects with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the Code.  No termination of a Single Employer Plan has occurred, and no Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan has arisen, during such five-year period.  The present value of all accrued benefits under each Single Employer Plan (based on those assumptions used to fund such Plans) did not, as of the last annual valuation date prior to the date on which this representation is made or deemed made, exceed the value of the assets of such Plan allocable to such accrued benefits by a material amount.  Neither the Borrower nor any

 

54



 

Commonly Controlled Entity has had a complete or partial withdrawal from any Multiemployer Plan that has resulted or could reasonably be expected to result in a material liability under ERISA, and neither the Borrower nor any Commonly Controlled Entity would become subject to any material liability under ERISA if the Borrower or any such Commonly Controlled Entity were to withdraw completely from all Multiemployer Plans as of the valuation date most closely preceding the date on which this representation is made or deemed made.  No such Multiemployer Plan is in Reorganization or Insolvent.

 

4.14                           Investment Company Act; Other Regulations.  No Loan Party is an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  No Loan Party is subject to regulation under any Requirement of Law (other than Regulation X) which limits or conditions its ability to incur Indebtedness.

 

4.15                           Subsidiaries.  (a)  The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.15 constitute all the Subsidiaries of TTPC as of the Closing Date after giving effect to the Acquisition.  Schedule 4.15 sets forth as of the Closing Date and after giving effect to the Acquisition, the exact legal name (as reflected on the certificate of incorporation, certificate of formation or other applicable Charter) and jurisdiction of incorporation or formation of each Subsidiary of TTPC and, as to each such Subsidiary, the percentage and number of each class of Capital Stock owned by each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries.

 

(b)                                 There are no outstanding subscriptions, options, warrants, calls, rights or other agreements or commitments (other than stock options granted to employees or directors and directors’ qualifying shares) of any nature relating to any Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Subsidiary.  No Loan Party nor any of its Subsidiaries has issued, or authorized the issuance of, any Disqualified Stock.

 

4.16                           Use of Proceeds.  The proceeds of the Term Loans shall be used to finance a portion of the Acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses.  The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans, the Swing Line Loans and the Letters of Credit shall be used to finance working capital needs and for general corporate purposes.

 

4.17                           Environmental Matters.  Other than exceptions to any of the following that could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect:

 

(a)                                  Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries:  (i) are, and within the period of all applicable statutes of limitation have been, in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws; and (ii) reasonably believe that compliance with all applicable Environmental Law that is or is expected to become applicable to any of them will be timely attained and maintained, without material expense.

 

(b)                                 Materials of Environmental Concern are not present at, on, under, in, or about any real property now or formerly owned, leased or operated by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or at any other location (including, without limitation, any location to which Materials of Environmental Concern have been sent for re-use or

 

55



 

recycling or for treatment, storage, or disposal) which could reasonably be expected to (i) give rise to liability of any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries under any applicable Environmental Law or otherwise result in costs to any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries, or (ii) interfere with any Loan Party’s or any of its Subsidiaries’ continued operations, or (iii) impair the fair saleable value of any real property owned or leased by any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries.

 

(c)                                  There is no judicial, administrative, or arbitral proceeding (including any notice of violation or alleged violation) under or relating to any Environmental Law to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is, or to the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower will be, named as a party that is pending or, to the knowledge of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, threatened.

 

(d)                                 No Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof has received any written request for information pursuant to, or been notified that it is a potentially responsible party under or relating to, the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or any similar Environmental Law, or with respect to any Materials of Environmental Concern.

 

(e)                                  No Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof has entered into or agreed to any consent decree, order, or settlement or other agreement, or is subject to any judgment, decree, or order or other agreement, in any judicial, administrative, arbitral, or other forum for dispute resolution, relating to compliance with or liability under any Environmental Law.

 

(f)                                    No Loan Party nor any Subsidiary thereof has assumed or retained, by contract or operation of law, any liabilities of any kind, fixed or contingent, known or unknown, under any Environmental Law or with respect to any Material of Environmental Concern.

 

4.18                           Accuracy of Information, etc.  No statement or information contained in this Agreement, any other Loan Document, the Confidential Information Memorandum or any other document, certificate or statement furnished to the Arrangers, the Agents or the Lenders or any of them, by or on behalf of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof for use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, contained as of the date such statement, information, document or certificate was so furnished (or, in the case of the Confidential Information Memorandum, as of the date of this Agreement), any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading.  The projections and pro forma financial information contained in the materials referenced above are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by management of TTPC, LP and the Borrower to be reasonable at the time made, it being recognized by the Lenders that such financial information as it relates to future events is not to be viewed as fact and that actual results during the period or periods covered by such financial information may differ from the projected results set forth therein by a material amount.  As of the Closing Date, the representations and warranties of the Borrower and TTPC contained in the Acquisition Documentation are true and correct in all material respects.  There is no fact known to TTPC or any of its Subsidiaries that could reasonably be expected to

 

56



 

have a Material Adverse Effect that has not been expressly disclosed herein, in the other Loan Documents, in the Confidential Information Memorandum or in any other documents, certificates and written statements furnished to the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents.

 

4.19                           Security Documents.  (a)  The Guarantee and Collateral Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest in the Collateral described therein and proceeds and products thereof.  In the case of the Pledged Stock, when any stock certificates representing such Pledged Stock are delivered to the Administrative Agent, and in the case of the other Collateral described in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(a)-1 or, as to property acquired after the Closing Date, any other office noticed to the Administrative Agent in writing at the time such property is acquired (which financing statements may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time) and such other filings as are specified on Schedule 3 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement are made (all of which filings may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time), the Guarantee and 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 and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Permitted Liens).  Schedule 4.19(a)-2 lists, as of the Closing Date, each UCC Financing Statement that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will remain on file after the Closing Date.  Schedule 4.19(a)-3 lists each UCC Financing Statement that (i) names any Loan Party as debtor and (ii) will be terminated on or prior to the Closing Date; and on or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower will have delivered to the Administrative Agent, or caused to be filed, duly completed UCC termination statements, authorized by the relevant secured party, in respect of each such UCC Financing Statement.

 

(b)                                 Each of the Mortgages is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable Lien on, and security interest in, the mortgaged properties described, and as defined, therein and proceeds and products thereof, and when the Mortgages are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(b) (or, with respect to any Mortgages made after the Closing Date, filed in the appropriate offices), each such Mortgage shall constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all of such mortgaged properties and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person.

 

(c)                                  Each Intellectual Property Security Agreement is effective to create in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid, binding and enforceable security interest in the Intellectual Property Collateral described therein and proceeds and products thereof.  Upon the filing of (i) an Intellectual Property Security Agreement in the appropriate indexes of the United States Patent and Trademark Office relative to patents and trademarks (within three (3) months after the Closing Date), and the United States Copyright Office relative to copyrights (within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date), together with provision for payment of all requisite fees, and (ii) financing statements in appropriate form for filing in the offices specified on Schedule 4.19(c) (which financing statements may be filed by the Administrative Agent at any time), such Intellectual Property Security Agreement shall

 

57



 

constitute a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property Collateral described therein and the proceeds and products thereof, as security for the Obligations (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person (except Permitted Liens).

 

4.20                           Solvency.  Each Loan Party is, and after giving effect to the Acquisition and the incurrence of all Indebtedness and obligations being incurred in connection with the Loan Documents and the Acquisition  will be and will continue to be, Solvent.

4.22                           Insurance.  Each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries is insured by insurers of recognized financial responsibility against such losses and risks and in such amounts as are prudent and customary in the businesses in which it is engaged; and no Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries (i) has received notice from any insurer or agent of such insurer that substantial capital improvements or other material expenditures will have to be made in order to continue such insurance or (ii) has any reason to believe that it will not be able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers at a cost that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

 

4.23                           Acquisition Documentation.  The Acquisition Documentation listed on Schedule 4.23 attached hereto constitute all of the material agreements, instruments and undertakings to which any Loan Party or any of its Subsidiaries is bound or by which such Person or any of its property or assets is bound or affected relating to, or arising out of, the Acquisition (including, without limitation, any agreements, instruments or undertakings assumed pursuant to the Acquisition Agreement).  None of such material agreements, instruments or undertakings have been amended, supplemented or otherwise modified as of the Closing Date, and all such material agreements, instruments and undertakings are in full force and effect.  No party to any Acquisition Documentation is in default thereunder and no party thereto, or any other Person, has the right to terminate any Acquisition Documentation, in each case, (i) as of the Closing Date and (ii) thereafter only to the extent such default or right to terminate could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i) or (ii) of paragraph (f) above with respect to any Loan Party, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable, and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, either or both of the following actions may be taken:  (i) with the consent of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Revolving Credit Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Revolving Credit Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to exercise any and all remedies available under the Security Documents, including, without limitation, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the Mortgages, or otherwise available under applicable law or otherwise.  With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount in immediately available funds equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit (and the Borrower hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Secured Parties, a continuing security interest in all amounts at any time on deposit in such cash collateral account to secure the undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit and all other Obligations).  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that any

 

91



 

funds held in such cash collateral account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in such cash collateral account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate undrawn and unexpired amount over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in such cash collateral account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim.  Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other Obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Loan Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Loan Parties (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto).

 

SECTION 9.  THE AGENTS; THE ARRANGERS

 

9.1                                 Appointment.  Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.   Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, no Agent shall have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, or any fiduciary relationship with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Agent.

 

9.2                                 Delegation of Duties.  Each Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties.  No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

 

9.3                                 Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither any Arranger, nor any Agent nor any of their respective officers, directors, partners, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates shall be (i) liable for any action lawfully taken or omitted to be taken by it or such Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document (except to the extent that any of the foregoing are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from its or such Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to the party asserting liability) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement

 

92



 

or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Arrangers or the Agents under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of any Loan Party party thereto to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.  The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party.

 

9.4                                 Reliance by Agents.  Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including, without limitation, counsel to TTPC or the other Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent.  The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent.  Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders or the requisite Lenders required under Section 10.1 to authorize or require such action (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.  Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders or the requisite Lenders under Section 10.1 to authorize or require such action (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and Letters of Credit.

 

9.5                                 Notice of Default.  No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder unless such Agent has received notice from a Lender, TTPC, LP or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”.  In the event that the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders.  The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the requisite Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders); provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.

 

9.6                                 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders.  Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Arrangers, the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Arranger or any Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan

 

93



 

Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Arranger or any Agent to any Lender.  Each Lender represents to the Arrangers and the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Arranger or any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans (and in the case of the Issuing Lender, its Letters of Credit) hereunder and enter into this Agreement.  Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Arranger or any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition, prospects and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their affiliates.  Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent hereunder, neither any Arranger nor any Agent shall have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of such Arranger or such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys and other advisors, partners, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates.

 

9.7                                 Indemnification.  The Lenders agree to indemnify each Arranger and each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by TTPC, LP or the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of TTPC, LP or the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (including, without limitation, at any time following the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Arranger or such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, the Acquisition Documentation or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Arranger or such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from such Arranger’s or such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in breach of a duty owed to such Lender.  The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

9.8                                 Arrangers and Agents in Their Individual Capacities.  Each Arranger and each Agent and their respective affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Arranger was not an Arranger and such Agent was not an Agent.  With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it and

 

94



 

with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Arranger and each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Arranger or an Agent, as the case may be, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Arranger and each Agent in their respective individual capacities.

 

9.9                                 Successor Agents.  The Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower.  If the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Administrative Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Administrative Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans or Letters of Credit.  If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date that is 30 days following a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective, and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above.  The Syndication Agent or the Documentation Agents may, at any time, by notice to the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, resign as an Agent hereunder, whereupon the duties, rights, obligations and responsibilities of such Agent hereunder shall automatically be assumed by, and inure to the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, without any further act by such Arranger, such Agent, the Administrative Agent or any Lender.  After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

9.10                           Authorization to Release Liens.  The Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to release any Lien covering any Property of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is the subject of a Disposition which is permitted by this Agreement or which has been consented to in accordance with Section 10.1.

 

9.11                           The Arrangers; the Syndication Agent; the Documentation Agents.  The Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and the Documentation Agents, in their respective capacities as such, shall have no duties or responsibilities, and shall incur no liability, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

9.12                           Withholding Tax.  (a)  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 forms or other documentation required by Section 2.20(f) are not delivered to the Administrative Agent, then the Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, a maximum amount of the applicable withholding tax.

 

95



 

(b)                                 If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or 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, was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent 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.

 

(c)                                  If any Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers its rights under this Agreement, the purchaser, assignee, participant or transferee, as applicable, shall comply and be bound by the terms of Sections 2.20(f) and 9.12.

 

SECTION 10.  MISCELLANEOUS

 

10.1                           Amendments and Waivers.  Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document, nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, supplemented or modified except in accordance with the provisions of this Section 10.1.  The Required Lenders and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, or (with the written consent of the Required Lenders) the Administrative Agent and each Loan Party party to the relevant Loan Document may, from time to time, (a) enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications hereto and to the other Loan Documents (including amendments and restatements hereof or thereof) for the purpose of adding any provisions to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of the Loan Parties hereunder or thereunder or (b) waive, on such terms and conditions as may be specified in the instrument of waiver, any of the requirements of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (i) forgive the principal amount or extend the final scheduled date of maturity of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation, extend the scheduled date of any amortization payment in respect of any Term Loan, reduce the stated rate of any interest or fee payable hereunder or extend the scheduled date of any payment thereof, or increase the amount or extend the expiration date of any Commitment of any Lender or modify the definition of Interest Period in such a way as to permit a period in excess of six months, in each case without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby; (ii) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section or Section 10.7 or reduce any percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders or Required Prepayment Lenders, consent to the assignment or transfer by any Loan Party of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, release all or substantially all of the Collateral or release all or substantially all of the Subsidiary Guarantors from their guarantee obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, in each case without the consent of all Lenders; (iii) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent to any extension of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility set forth in Section 5.2 (including, without limitation, the waiver of an existing Default or Event of Default required to be waived in order for such extension of credit to be made) without the consent of the Majority Revolving Credit Facility Lenders; (iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Majority Facility Lenders with respect to any Facility without the written consent of all Lenders under such Facility; (v) amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 9 or any other

provided that any notice, request or demand to or upon any Agent or any Lender shall not be effective until received and provided further that any notices or deliveries required to be given to all the Lenders hereunder may be effected by delivery of notice to the Administrative Agent as provided above, followed by a distribution of such notice by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders through IntraLinks (or any similar electronic system customarily used by financial institutions), to the extent such system is being used by the Administrative Agent, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall bear no responsibility for any failure of any Lender to receive any such notice or delivery and the Borrower shall remain responsible therefor.

 

10.3                           No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.  No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents 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

 

98



 

privilege.  The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

 

10.4                           Survival of Representations and Warranties.  All representations and warranties made hereunder, in the other Loan Documents and in any document, certificate or statement delivered pursuant hereto or in connection herewith shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loans and other extensions of credit hereunder.

 

10.5                           Payment of Expenses.  The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent for all their reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment, supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the charges of IntraLinks, (b) to pay or reimburse each Lender, the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent for all its costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or preservation of any rights under this Agreement (including the administration costs associated with such enforcement or preservation), the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of counsel (including the allocated fees and disbursements and other charges of in-house counsel) to each Lender to the Arrangers and the Administrative Agent and the charges of IntraLinks; provided that if no Default or Event of Default exists, such reimbursement for legal fees shall be limited to the fees and disbursements of one primary counsel plus the fees and disbursements of any local and specialist counsel engaged by the Administrative Agent, (c) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, the Arrangers and the Agents harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, stamp, excise and other taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with the execution and delivery of, or consummation or administration of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify, and hold each Lender, each Arranger, each Agent, their respective affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, partners, trustees, employees, affiliates, shareholders, attorneys and other advisors, agents, attorneys-in-fact and controlling persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to or arising out of the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents, including, without limitation, any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans or Letters of Credit, any transactions contemplated thereby, the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of any Loan Party or any of the Properties or the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems that are intercepted by such persons and the fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (d), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), provided, that the

 

99



 

Borrower shall have no obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted solely and proximately from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee in breach of a duty owed to the Borrower.  Without limiting the foregoing, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, (i) TTPC agrees not to assert and to cause its Subsidiaries not to assert, and hereby waives and agrees to cause its Subsidiaries so to waive, all rights for contribution or any other rights of recovery with respect to all claims, demands, penalties, fines, liabilities, settlements, damages, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature, under or related to Environmental Laws, that any of them might have by statute or otherwise against any Indemnitee and (ii) no Loan Party shall assert, and each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement, instrument or transaction contemplated hereby or thereby.  All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than five days after written demand therefor.  Statements payable by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be submitted to the Borrower in accordance with Section 10.2, or to such other Person or address as may be hereafter designated by the Borrower in a written notice to the Administrative Agent.  The agreements in this Section shall survive repayment of the Loans and Letters of Credit and all other amounts payable hereunder.

 

10.6                           Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.  (a)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of TTPC, LP, the Borrower, the Lenders, the Arrangers, the Agents, all future holders of the Loans and Letters of Credit and their respective successors and assigns, except that none of TTPC, LP or the Borrower may assign or transfer any of their respective rights or obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Arrangers, the Agents and each Lender.

 

(b)                                 Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or any other Person, in accordance with applicable law, at any time sell to one or more banks, financial institutions or other entities (each, a “Participant”) participating interests in any Loan owing to such Lender, any Commitment of such Lender or any other interest of such Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.  In the event of any such sale by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement to the other parties to this Agreement shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance thereof, such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Borrower, the Arrangers and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  In no event shall any Participant under any such participation have any right to approve any amendment or waiver of any provision of any Loan Document, or any consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, except to the extent that such amendment, waiver or consent would reduce the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or any fees payable hereunder, or postpone the date of the final maturity of the Loans, in each case to the extent subject to such participation.  The Borrower agrees that if amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the Loans are due or unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall, to the maximum extent permitted

by applicable law, be deemed to have the right of setoff in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement, provided that, in purchasing such participating interest, such Participant shall be deemed to have agreed to share with the Lenders the proceeds thereof as provided in Section 10.7(a) as fully as if it were a Lender hereunder.  The Borrower also agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21 with respect to its participation in the Commitments and the Loans outstanding from time to time as if it was a Lender; provided that, in the case of Section 2.20, such Participant shall have complied with the requirements of said Section and provided, further, that no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to any such Section than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such transferor Lender to such Participant had no such transfer occurred.

 

(c)                                  Any Lender (an “Assignor”) may, in accordance with applicable law and upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, at any time and from time to time assign (1) to any Lender any affiliate thereof or Affiliated Fund of the assigning Lender or of another Lender or (2) with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any assignment of Revolving Credit Commitments, the written consent of the Issuing Lender and the Swing Line Lender (which, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (provided (x) that no such consent need be obtained by a Lehman Entity and (y) the consent of the Borrower need not be obtained with respect to any assignment of Term Loans), to an additional bank, financial institution or other entity (an “Assignee”) all or any part of its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance, substantially in the form of Exhibit D, executed by such Assignee and such Assignor (and, where the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender or the Swing Line Lender is required pursuant to  the foregoing provisions, by the Borrower and such other Persons) and delivered to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording in the Register; provided that no such assignment to an Assignee (other than any Lender or any affiliate or Affiliated Fund of any Lender) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of less than $1.0 million (in the case of Term Loans) and $5.0 million (with respect to all other Loans and Commitments) (other than in the case of an assignment of all of a Lender’s interests under this Agreement), and, after giving effect thereto, the Assignor shall have Loans and Commitments in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $1.0 million (in the case of Term Loans) and $5.0 million (with respect to all other Loans and Commitments), in each case unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.  Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities.  Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and, in the case of assignments requiring consent of the Administrative Agent, recording, from and after the effective date determined pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, (x) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder with a Commitment and/or Loans as set forth therein, and (y) the Assignor thereunder shall, to the extent provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of an Assignor’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Assignor shall cease to be a party hereto).  Notwithstanding any provision of this Section, the consent of the Borrower shall not be required for any assignment that occurs at any time when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

 

101



 

(d)                                 The Administrative Agent shall, on behalf of the Borrower, maintain at its address referred to in Section 10.2 a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender from time to time.  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, in the absence of manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as the owner of the Loans and any Notes evidencing such Loans recorded therein for all purposes of this Agreement.  Any assignment of any Loan, whether or not evidenced by a Note, shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register or, with respect to assignments by a Lender to any affiliate thereof or any Approved Fund, upon receipt of such fully executed assignment by the Administrative Agent (and each Note shall expressly so provide).  Any assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan evidenced by a Note shall be registered on the Register only upon surrender for registration of assignment or transfer of the Note evidencing such Loan, accompanied by a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance; thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated Assignee, and the old Notes shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “canceled”.  The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

 

(e)                                  Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Acceptance executed by an Assignor and an Assignee (and, in any case where the consent of any other Person is required by Section 10.6(c), by each such other Person) together with payment to the Administrative Agent of a registration and processing fee of $3,500 (except that no such registration and processing fee shall be payable (y) in connection with an assignment by or to a Lehman Entity or (z) in the case of an Assignee which is already a Lender or is an affiliate of a Lender or an Affiliated Fund), the Administrative Agent shall (i) promptly accept such Assignment and Acceptance and (ii) on the effective date determined pursuant thereto record the information contained therein in the Register and give notice of such acceptance and recordation to the Borrower.  On or prior to such effective date, the Borrower, at its own expense, upon request, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (in exchange for the Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender) a new Revolving Credit Note and/or applicable Term Notes, as the case may be, to such Assignee or its registered assigns in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or applicable Term Loans, as the case may be, assumed or acquired by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance and, if the Assignor has retained a Revolving Credit Commitment and/or Term Loans, as the case may be, upon request, a new Revolving Credit Note and/or Term Notes, as the case may be, to the Assignor or its registered assigns in an amount equal to the Revolving Credit Commitment and/or applicable Term Loans, as the case may be, retained by it hereunder.  Such new Note or Notes shall be dated the Closing Date and shall otherwise be in the form of the Note or Notes replaced thereby.

 

(f)                                    For the avoidance of doubt, the parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the provisions of this Section concerning assignments of Loans and Notes relate only to absolute assignments and that such provisions do not prohibit assignments creating security interests, including, without limitation, any pledge or assignment by a Lender of any Loan or Note to any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with applicable law.

 

102



 

10.7                           Adjustments; Set-off.  (a)  Except to the extent that this Agreement provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender or any affiliate thereof (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender (including any affiliate thereof), if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Obligations, such Benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Obligations, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

 

(b)                                 In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender and their affiliates shall have the right, without prior notice to TTPC, LP or the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by TTPC, LP and the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by TTPC, LP or the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of TTPC, LP or the Borrower, as the case may be.  Each Lender agrees to notify promptly the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender (or its affiliate), provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

 

10.8                           Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by one or more of the parties to this Agreement on any number of separate counterparts, and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by facsimile transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart hereof.  A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

 

10.9                           Severability.  Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

 

10.10                     Integration.  This Agreement and the other Loan Documents represent the agreement of TTPC, LP, the Borrower, the Agents, the Arrangers and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Arrangers, any Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

 

103



 

10.11                     GOVERNING LAW.  THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

 

10.12                     Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers.  Each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

 

(a)                                  submits for itself and its Property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

 

(b)                                 consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

 

(c)                                  agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to TTPC, LP or the Borrower, as the case may be at its address set forth in Section 10.2 or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

 

(d)                                 agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to sue in any other jurisdiction; and

 

(e)                                  waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

 

10.13                     Suretyship Waivers.  Each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby waives any and all defenses applicable or available to guarantors or sureties whether arising as a result of the joint and several nature of the obligations of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereunder or otherwise.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the waivers of the Guarantors (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement) set forth in Section 2.5 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by this reference mutatis mutandis and such waivers shall be deemed to be made by TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereunder as if such waivers had been expressly set forth herein.

 

10.14                     Acknowledgments.  Each of TTPC, LP and the Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

 

(a)                                  it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

 

104



 

(b)                                 neither any Arranger, any Agent nor any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to TTPC, LP or the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and the relationship between the Arrangers, the Agents and Lenders, on one hand, and TTPC, LP and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

 

(c)                                  no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders or among TTPC, LP, the Borrower and the Lenders.

 

10.15                     Confidentiality.  Each of the Arrangers, the Agents and the Lenders agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such Loan Party as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Arranger, any Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (a) to any Arranger, any Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate of any thereof, (b) to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or prospective Transferee that agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section (or executes a confidentiality agreement with confidentiality terms that are substantially similar to the terms of this Section), (c) to any of its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors, (d) to any financial institution that is a direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section), (e) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority or self-regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over it, (f) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (g) if requested or required to do so in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (h) that has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Section, (i) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document.  Notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement, arrangement or understanding to the contrary, each of the parties hereto hereby agree that, each party hereto (and each of its employees, representatives or agents) are permitted to disclose to any and all persons, without limitation, the tax treatment and tax aspects of the Loans, the Acquisition and the other transactions contemplated hereby, and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Loan Parties or the Lenders, the Arrangers or the Agents related to such tax treatment and tax aspects.  To the extent not inconsistent with the immediately preceding sentence, this authorization does not extend to disclosure of any other information or any other term or detail not related to the tax treatment or tax aspects of the Loans, the Acquisition or the other transactions contemplated hereby.

 

10.16                     Release of Collateral and Guarantee Obligations.  (a)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, upon request of the Borrower in connection with any Disposition of Property permitted by the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any Lender, or any affiliate of

 

105



 

any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in any Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition, and to release any guarantee obligations of any Person being Disposed of in such Disposition, to the extent necessary to permit consummation of such Disposition in accordance with the Loan Documents provided that the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, at least ten Business Days prior to the date of the proposed release, a written request for release identifying the relevant Collateral being Disposed of in such Disposition and the terms of such Disposition in reasonable detail, including the date thereof, the price thereof and any expenses in connection therewith, together with a certification by the Borrower stating that such transaction is in compliance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and that the proceeds of such Disposition will be applied in accordance with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

 

(b)                                 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or any other Loan Document, when all Obligations have been paid in full, all Commitments have terminated or expired and no Letter of Credit shall be outstanding, upon request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall (without notice to or vote or consent of any Lender, or any affiliate of any Lender that is a party to any Specified Hedge Agreement) take such actions as shall be required to release its security interest in all Collateral, and to release all guarantee obligations provided for in any Loan Document, whether or not on the date of such release there may be outstanding Obligations in respect of Specified Hedge Agreements.

 

10.17                     Accounting Changes.  In the event that any “Accounting Change” (as defined below) shall occur and such change results in a change in the method of calculation of financial covenants, standards or terms in this Agreement, then TTPC, LP, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to enter into negotiations in order to amend such provisions of this Agreement so as to equitably reflect such Accounting Changes with the desired result that the criteria for evaluating TTPC’s, LP’s and the Borrower’s financial condition shall be the same after such Accounting Changes as if such Accounting Changes had not been made.  Until such time as such an amendment shall have been executed and delivered by TTPC, LP, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders, all financial covenants, standards and terms in this Agreement shall continue to be calculated or construed as if such Accounting Changes had not occurred.  “Accounting Changes” refers to changes in accounting principles required or permitted by the promulgation of any rule, regulation, pronouncement or opinion by the Financial Accounting Standards Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or, if applicable, the SEC.

 

10.18                     Delivery of Lender Addenda.  Each initial Lender shall become a party to this Agreement by delivering to the Administrative Agent a Lender Addendum duly executed by such Lender and the Administrative Agent.

 

10.19                     Construction.  Each covenant contained herein shall be construed (absent express provision to the contrary) as being independent of each other covenant contained herein, so that compliance with any one covenant shall not (absent such an express contrary provision) be deemed to excuse compliance with any other covenant.  Where any provision herein refers to action to be taken by any Person, or which such Person is prohibited from taking,

 

106



 

such provision shall be applicable whether such action is taken directly or indirectly by such Person.

 

10.20                     WAIVERS OF JURY TRIAL.  TTPC, LP, THE BORROWER, THE ARRANGERS, THE AGENTS AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVE TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.

SUBORDINATED NOTE

 

U.S. $[         ]

 

June 30, 2003

 

Travel Transaction Processing Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”, which term includes any successor of the Company), for value received, hereby promises to pay to the order of [               ] or permitted assigns (“Holder”), the principal sum of [          ] ($[        ]) on July 31, 2012 (the “Maturity Date”).  Subject to Section 5(a), interest on the unpaid balance of the principal amount of this promissory note (this “Note” and together with any replacement Notes and Additional Notes issued pursuant hereto, the “Notes”) shall be payable at a rate of [           ] percent ([   ]%) per annum until the principal hereof is paid in full in the manner and at times provided herein; provided, however, that upon the payment of any principal of this Note after December 31, 2011, the Company shall pay a premium equal to 5% of the portion of the principal amount of this Note being paid at such time.  Certain defined terms used herein are defined in Section 20 of this Note.

 

Interest on this Note will be payable or will accrue from June 30, 2003 (the “Original Issue Date”) semiannually for the periods ending December 15 and June 15 of each calendar year commencing December 15, 2003 (each date of payment being an “Interest Payment Date”).  The Company may, at its option and in its sole discretion, issue additional promissory notes in accordance with the third sentence of this paragraph (“Additional Notes”) in lieu of a cash payment of any or all of that portion of the interest due on this Note on any Interest Payment Date which exceeds the Cash Interest Amount due on such Interest Payment Date in an aggregate principal amount equal to the amount of interest not paid in cash on each such Interest

 



 

Payment Date; provided, however, that if, on any Interest Payment Date, a default or event of default under any Designated Senior Debt has occurred and is continuing or would occur as a result of the payment of the Aggregate Cash Interest Amount or the payment of any dividend to the Company from any of its Subsidiaries necessary to allow the Company to pay the Aggregate Cash Interest Amount, in each case after giving pro forma effect thereto (such defaults or events of defaults, a “Default Trigger”), then the Company, at its option and in its sole discretion, in lieu of a cash payment of any or all of the Cash Interest Amount due on this Note on such Interest Payment Date, may elect to deliver Additional Notes for any or all of the Cash Interest Amount due on such date.  If the Company elects to issue Additional Notes pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, it shall issue to the Holder an Additional Note, dated the date of such Interest Payment Date, in a principal amount equal to the amount of interest not paid in cash on such Interest Payment Date, and with a maturity date, interest rate and other terms of, and in the form of, this Note, and the Company shall provide a certificate executed by an officer of the Company certifying that a Default Trigger has occurred.  The issuance of such Additional Note shall constitute full payment of such interest not paid in cash.  Each issuance of Additional Notes in lieu of cash payment of interest on the Notes shall be made pro rata with respect to the outstanding Seller Notes (as defined below).

 

Interest on this Note will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year, consisting of twelve 30-day months.

 

This Note shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company and shall inure to the benefit of the successors and permitted assigns of the Holder.  Subject to Section 15, the Holder may assign, transfer or dispose of its rights with respect to this Note only upon registration of this Note under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and any applicable state securities laws, or the existence of an exemption from such registration.  In the event of transfer of this Note by the Holder pursuant to any exemption from such registration, the Holder will provide the Company an opinion of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Company that such transfer does not violate the Securities Act; provided, however, that in the event of transfer of this Note by the Holder to any of its wholly-owned Subsidiaries, in lieu of an opinion of counsel, the Holder shall only be required to provide the Company with a certificate, duly executed by the Holder, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Company.  This Note is one of two Subordinated Notes (including any replacement Notes and Additional Notes issued pursuant to such Subordinated Notes, the “Seller Notes”) issued pursuant to the Partnership Interest Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 3, 2003 (the “Purchase Agreement”), among Delta Air Lines, Inc., NWA Inc., American Airlines, Inc., NewCRS Limited, Inc., Worldspan, L.P. (“Worldspan”) and the Company, as amended.  The Seller Notes shall be pari passu to each other in priority and right of payment.

The Company will pay principal, premium, if any, and interest in money of the United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts and, at the Company’s election, with respect to interest, in Additional Notes, to the extent permitted under this Note.  All payments to be made to the Holder shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the following bank account or to such other bank account designated in writing by the Holder to the Company:

Notes and Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or Worldspan in respect thereof; provided, however, that no redemption shall be required or effected pursuant to this Section 3(b) unless one of the following two events occurs:  (i) the repurchase, defeasance or redemption by the Company or any Subsidiary thereof of all outstanding Obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or Worldspan in respect thereof, or (ii) the receipt of consent from the requisite holders of all Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or Worldspan in respect thereof to the redemption by the Company hereunder.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if the Company or Worldspan enters into and consummates a transaction resulting in a Change of Control, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(a), the Company shall redeem the Notes in full at the Mandatory Redemption Price no later than the later of (A) 60 days following such Change of Control and (B) 15 days following the expiration of any offer to purchase, redemption or similar transaction required under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the Company or Worldspan in respect thereof as a result of such Change of Control.  The Company’s obligations under this Section 3(b) shall be (but shall not be obligated to be) discharged if a Person other than the Company (whether or not an Affiliate of the Company) makes and consummates the redemption as required by this Section 3(b).

 

(c)           Mandatory Redemption - Initial Public Offering.  Within 60 days following the occurrence of an Initial Public Offering, notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3(a), the Company shall pay 50% of the net cash proceeds received by the Company or Worldspan from such Initial Public Offering to redeem all or a part of the Seller Notes at the Mandatory Redemption Price; provided, that, in the event of an Initial Public Offering of Worldspan’s common equity interests, the Company shall have no obligations under this Section 3(c) except to the extent that (i) such Initial Public Offering, distribution and redemption are not prohibited by the terms of the Credit Agreement and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness thereof, and (ii) Worldspan is permitted to distribute the net cash proceeds of such offering to the Company as “Restricted Payments” in compliance with Section 4.07(a) and 4.07(b)(11) of the Senior Note Indenture, as in effect on the Original Issue Date; provided, further that if the Senior Note Indenture is subsequently amended in a manner such that the “Restricted Payment” covenants contained therein are made less restrictive from Worldspan’s viewpoint with respect to Worldspan’s ability to distribute the net cash proceeds of such offering to the Company, the term “Restricted Payments” as used in this Section 3(c) shall be deemed to incorporate such amendments.

 

(d)           Selection of Notes to be Redeemed.  If less than all of the Seller Notes are to be redeemed in a redemption pursuant to Sections 3(a), (b) or (c) of each Seller Note at any time (except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to Section 3(a)), the Company will select Seller Notes for redemption as follows:

 

(i)            if the Seller Notes are listed on any national securities exchange, in compliance with the requirements of the principal national securities exchange on which the Seller Notes are listed; or

 

(ii)           if the Seller Notes are not listed on any national securities exchange, on a pro rata basis.

(e)           Notice of Redemption.  Subject to the provisions of Section 3(g) hereof, at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before a redemption date, the Company will mail or cause to be mailed, by first class certified mail, a notice of redemption to the Holder whose Notes are to be redeemed at its registered address, except that redemption notices may be mailed more than 60 days prior to a redemption date if the notice is issued in connection with a defeasance of the Notes pursuant to Section 18 hereof.

 

The notice will identify the Notes to be redeemed and will state:

 

(i)            the redemption date;

 

(ii)           the redemption price;

 

(iii)          if any Note is being redeemed in part, the portion of the principal amount of such Note to be redeemed and that, after the redemption date upon surrender of such Note, a new Note or Notes in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion will be issued upon surrender of the original Note;

 

(iv)          the name and address of the paying agent (which may be the Company);

 

(v)           that Notes called for redemption must be surrendered to the paying agent to collect the redemption price;

 

(vi)          that, unless the Company defaults in making such redemption payment on the redemption date, interest on the Notes or the portion of the Notes called for redemption ceases to accrue on and after the redemption date;

 

(vii)         the paragraph of the Notes pursuant to which the Notes called for redemption are being redeemed; and

 

(viii)        that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of the CUSIP number, if any, listed in such notice or printed on the Notes.

 

(f)            Effect of Notice of Redemption.  Once notice of redemption is mailed in accordance with Section 3(e), Notes called for redemption become irrevocably due and payable on the redemption date at the redemption price.  One Business Day prior to the redemption date, the Company will set aside, segregate and hold in trust money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest and premium, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed or purchased on that date.  If the Company complies with the provisions of the preceding two sentences, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or the portions of Notes called for redemption, provided that the Company pays the redemption price of and accrued interest and premium, if any, on all Notes surrendered for redemption on the redemption date.  If any Note or portion of any Note called for redemption is not so paid to the Holder upon surrender for redemption on the redemption date, interest shall be paid on the unpaid principal, from the redemption date until such principal is paid, and to the extent lawful on any interest not paid on such unpaid principal, in each case at the Default Interest Rate (as defined in Section

 

5



 

5(a)).  Upon surrender of a Note that is redeemed in part, the Company will issue a new Note equal in principal amount to the unredeemed or unpurchased portion of such Note surrendered.

 

(g)           Offer to Repurchase by Application of Excess Proceeds.  In the event that, pursuant to Section 5(f) hereof, the Company is required to commence an offer to all Holders to purchase Seller Notes (an “Asset Sale Offer”), it will follow the procedures specified below.

 

The Asset Sale Offer shall be made to all Holders of Seller Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Seller Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in this Note with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets.  The Asset Sale Offer will remain open for a period of at least 20 Business Days following its commencement and not more than 30 Business Days, except to the extent that a longer period is required by applicable law (the “Offer Period”).  No later than three Business Days after the termination of the Offer Period (the “Purchase Date”), the Company will apply all Excess Proceeds (the “Offer Amount”) to the purchase of Seller Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness (on a pro rata basis, if applicable) or, if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Seller Notes and other Indebtedness tendered in response to the Asset Sale Offer.  Payment for any Seller Notes so purchased will be made in the same manner as interest payments are made.

 

If the Purchase Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest will be paid to the Person in whose name a Seller Note is registered at the close of business on such record date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders who tender Seller Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.

 

Upon the commencement of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company will send, by first class mail, a notice to each of the Holders.  The notice will contain all instructions and materials necessary to enable such Holders to tender Notes pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer.  The notice, which will govern the terms of the Asset Sale Offer, will state:

 

(i)            that the Asset Sale Offer is being made pursuant to this Section 3(g) and Section 5(f) hereof and the length of time the Asset Sale Offer will remain open;

 

(ii)           the Offer Amount, the purchase price and the Purchase Date;

 

(iii)          that any Note not tendered or accepted for payment will continue to accrue interest;

 

(iv)          that, unless the Company defaults in making such payment, any Note accepted for payment pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer will cease to accrue interest after the Purchase Date;

 

(v)           that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer may elect to have Notes purchased in integral multiples of $1,000 only;

 

(vi)          that Holders electing to have a Note purchased pursuant to any Asset Sale Offer will be required to surrender the Note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder

 

6



 

to Elect Purchase” on Annex A to this Note completed, or transfer by book-entry transfer, to the Company, a depositary, if appointed by the Company, or a paying agent at the address specified in the notice at least three days before the Purchase Date;

 

(vii)         that Holders will be entitled to withdraw their election if the Company, the depositary or the paying agent, as the case may be, receives, not later than the expiration of the Offer Period, a telegram, telex, facsimile transmission or letter setting forth the name of the Holder, the principal amount of the Note the Holder delivered for purchase and a statement that such Holder is withdrawing his election to have such Note purchased;

 

(viii)        that, if the aggregate principal amount of Seller Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered by Holders exceeds the Offer Amount, the Company will select the Seller Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis based on the principal amount of Seller Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness surrendered (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate by the Company so that only Notes in denominations of $1,000, or integral multiples thereof, will be purchased); and

 

(ix)           that Holders whose Notes were purchased only in part will be issued new Notes equal in principal amount to the unpurchased portion of the Notes surrendered (or transferred by book-entry transfer).

 

On or before the Purchase Date, the Company will, to the extent lawful, accept for payment, on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary, the Offer Amount of Seller Notes or portions thereof tendered pursuant to the Asset Sale Offer, or if less than the Offer Amount has been tendered, all Seller Notes tendered, and will deliver to the Holders an officer’s certificate stating that such Seller Notes or portions thereof were accepted for payment by the Company in accordance with the terms of this Section 3(g).  The Company, the depositary or the paying agent, as the case may be, will promptly (but in any case not later than five days after the Purchase Date) mail or deliver to each tendering Holder an amount equal to the purchase price of the Notes tendered by such Holder and accepted by the Company for purchase, and the Company will promptly issue a new Note, and the Company will authenticate and mail or deliver such new Note to such Holder, in a principal amount equal to any unpurchased portion of the Note surrendered.  Any Note not so accepted shall be promptly mailed or delivered by the Company to the Holder thereof.  Other than as specifically provided in this Section 3(g), any purchase pursuant to this Section (g) shall be made pursuant to the provisions of Sections 3(d) through 3(f) hereof.

 

4.             Representations and Warranties.  The Company hereby represents to the Holder as follows:  The Company (a) is a corporation duly formed, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware, (b) has all requisite corporate power and corporate authority to execute and deliver this Note and to perform its obligations hereunder and (c) has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Note.  The execution, delivery and performance of this Note including, without limitation, the Company’s obligations to issue Additional Notes pursuant hereto does not (i) violate any provision of the organizational documents of the Company or (ii) violate any statute, rule, regulation, order, judgment, decree or ruling of any governmental authority to which the Company is subject or any material agreement or instrument to which it is a party.  This Note is a legal, valid and binding obligation of the

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Worldspan shall be entitled to dividend or distribute the capital stock of Worldspan International Inc. to the Company and/or any other partners of Worldspan without complying with this Section 5(b) and shall be entitled to directly or indirectly reacquire the capital stock of Worldspan International Inc.; provided that such reacquisition occurs within one year from the Original Issue Date; provided further that such reacquisition shall be excluded from clause (2) in the preceding paragraph.  In the event such reacquisition does not occur within one year from the date of the indenture, Worldspan shall be deemed to have made a Restricted Payment on the date that is one year from the Original Issue Date in an amount equal to the Investment in the Subsidiary held by Worldspan as of the date Worldspan made such dividend or distribution.  The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the fair market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities proposed to be transferred or issued by the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment.  The fair market value of any assets or securities that are required to be valued by this covenant will be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company, Worldspan or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, whose resolution with respect thereto will be delivered to the Holders.  Not later than the date of making any Restricted Payment, the Company will deliver to the Holder an officers’ certificate stating that such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which the calculations required by this Section 5(b) were computed.  For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that a Restricted Payment meets the criteria of more than one of the exceptions described in (1) through (9) above or is entitled to be made pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 5(b), the Company shall be permitted, in its sole discretion to classify such Restricted Payment in any manner that complies with this covenant.

 

(c)           Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock by Subsidiaries.

 

                The Company will not permit Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to (collectively, “incur”) any Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt), and the Company will not permit Worldspan to issue any Disqualified Stock and will not permit Worldspan or any of Worldspan’s Restricted Subsidiaries that are not Senior Note Guarantors to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, however, that Worldspan may incur Indebtedness (including Acquired Debt) or issue Disqualified Stock, and the Restricted Subsidiaries may incur Indebtedness or issue preferred stock, if the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio for Worldspan’s most recently ended four full fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available immediately preceding the date on which such additional Indebtedness is incurred or such Disqualified Stock or preferred stock is issued would have been at least 1.8 to 1.0, determined on a pro forma basis (including a pro forma application of the net proceeds therefrom), as if the additional Indebtedness had been incurred or the Disqualified Stock or preferred stock had been issued, as the case may be, at the beginning of such four-quarter period.

 

11



 

The first paragraph of this Section 5(c) will not prohibit the incurrence of any of the following items of Indebtedness (collectively, “Permitted Debt”):

 

(1)           the incurrence by Worldspan and any Restricted Subsidiary of additional Indebtedness and letters of credit under Credit Facilities in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding under this clause (1) (with letters of credit being deemed to have a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries thereunder) not to exceed $210.0 million, provided that such amount shall be reduced to the extent of any reduction or elimination of any Indebtedness under any Credit Facility resulting from or relating to the formation of any Receivables Subsidiary or the consummation of any Qualified Receivables Transaction;

 

(2)           the incurrence by Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the Existing Indebtedness;

 

(3)           the incurrence by Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by the Senior Notes and the related Senior Note Guarantees to be issued on the date of the Senior Note Indenture and the Exchange Notes and the related Senior Note Guarantees to be issued pursuant to the Senior Note Registration Rights Agreement;

 

(4)           the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings or purchase money obligations, in each case, incurred for the purpose of financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary (whether through the direct purchase of assets or the Equity Interests of any Person owning such assets) in an aggregate principal amount, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (4), not to exceed $30.0 million at any time outstanding;

 

(5)           the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness (other than intercompany Indebtedness) that was permitted to be incurred under the first paragraph of this Section 5(c) or clauses (2), (3), (4), (5), or (17) of this paragraph;

 

(6)           the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of intercompany Indebtedness between or among the Company, Worldspan and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, however, that: (i) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than the Company, Worldspan or a Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan and (ii) any sale or other transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person that is not either the Company, Worldspan or a Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan; will be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence of such Indebtedness by Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, that was not permitted by this clause (6);

 

(7)           the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Hedging Obligations entered into in the ordinary course of business and not for speculative purposes;

 

12



 

(8)           the guarantee by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Indebtedness of the Company, Worldspan or a Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan that was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this Section 5(c) or Section 5(k) hereof; provided that if the Indebtedness being guaranteed is subordinated to or pari passu with the Notes, then the guarantee shall be subordinated to the same extent as the Indebtedness guaranteed;

 

(9)           the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries constituting reimbursement obligations with respect to letters of credit issued in the ordinary course of business; provided that upon the drawing of such letters of credit, such obligations are reimbursed within 30 days following such drawing;

 

(10)         the accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of additional Indebtedness with the same terms, the payment of dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred stock in the form of additional shares of the same class of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock, and the accrual of dividends on Disqualified Stock or preferred stock will not be deemed to be an incurrence of Indebtedness or an issuance of Disqualified Stock or preferred stock for purposes of this covenant; provided, in each such case, that the amount thereof is included in the Fixed Charges of Worldspan as accrued;

 

(11)         the incurrence of Indebtedness by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the form of performance bonds, completion guarantees and surety or appeal bonds entered into by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of their business;

 

(12)         the incurrence of Indebtedness by Worldspan or any Restricted Subsidiary arising from the honoring by a bank or other financial institution of a check, draft or similar instrument inadvertently (except in the case of daylight overdrafts) drawn against insufficient funds in the ordinary course of business, provided that the Indebtedness is satisfied within five Business Days of incurrence;

 

(13)         the incurrence of Indebtedness by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries owed to any Person in connection with worker’s compensation, self-insurance, health, disability or other employee benefits or property, casualty or liability insurance provided by such Person to Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary, pursuant to reimbursement or indemnification obligations to such person, in each case incurred in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices;

 

(14)         the incurrence of Indebtedness by Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries arising from agreements of Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries providing for adjustment of purchase price or other similar obligations, in each case, incurred or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, assets or a Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan;

 

(15)         the incurrence by a Receivables Subsidiary of Indebtedness in a Qualified Receivables Transaction that is without recourse to Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or their respective property or assets (other than such Receivables Subsidiary and its assets and, as to Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, other than pursuant to

 

13



 

representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities customary for such transactions) and is not guaranteed by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

 

(16)         the incurrence by Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness incurred to refund, refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause (16), not to exceed $60.0 million.

 

For purposes of determining compliance with this Section 5(c), in the event that an item of proposed Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted Debt described in clauses (1) through (16) above, or is entitled to be incurred pursuant to the first paragraph of this Section 5(c), the Company will be permitted to classify such item of Indebtedness on the date of its incurrence, or later reclassify all or a portion of such item of Indebtedness, in any manner that complies with this Section 5(c).  Indebtedness under Credit Facilities outstanding on the date on the Original Issue Date will initially be deemed to have been incurred on such date in reliance on the exception provided by clause (1) of the definition of Permitted Debt.

 

(d)           Liens.  The Company will not, and will not permit Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any Lien of any kind securing Indebtedness, except Permitted Liens, upon any of their property or assets, now owned or hereafter acquired.

 

(e)           Dividend and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist or become effective any consensual encumbrance or restriction on the ability of Worldspan or any Restricted Subsidiary to:

 

(1)           pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any indebtedness owed to the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

 

(2)           make loans or advances to the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries; or

 

(3)           transfer any of its properties or assets to the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

 

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of:

 

(1)           agreements governing Existing Indebtedness and any other agreement, including the Credit Facilities as in effect on the Original Issue Date and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements

 

14



 

or refinancings of those agreements, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements on the Original Issue Date;

 

(2)           the Senior Note Indenture, the Senior Notes and the Senior Note Guarantees;

 

(3)           applicable law, regulation or order;

 

(4)           (a) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person acquired by the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the time of such acquisition (except to the extent such Indebtedness or Capital Stock was incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition), which encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property or assets of the Person, so acquired, provided that, in the case of Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the Notes to be incurred, and (b) any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of those instruments, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other payment restrictions than those contained in those agreements at the time of such acquisition;

 

(5)           customary non-assignment provisions in leases, licenses or other commercial agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practices;

 

(6)           purchase money obligations for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose restrictions on that property of the nature described in clause (3) of the preceding paragraph of this Section 5(e);

 

(7)           any agreement for the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Capital Stock or assets of a Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan pending its sale or other disposition;

 

(8)           Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

 

(9)           any restriction on the transfer of assets under any Lien permitted under Section 5(d) imposed by the holder of the Liens;

 

(10)         provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of assets or property in joint venture agreements, asset sale agreements, stock sale agreements and other similar agreements entered into in the ordinary course of business;

 

(11)         restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

 

15



 

(12)         restrictions contained in security agreements or mortgages securing Indebtedness of Worldspan or a Restricted Subsidiary so long as the restrictions solely restrict the transfer of the property governed by the security agreements or mortgages;

 

(13)         Indebtedness or other contractual requirements of a Receivables Subsidiary in connection with a Qualified Receivables Transaction, provided that such restrictions apply only to such Receivables Subsidiary and its property or assets or Liens or receivables or related assets which are subject of, a Qualified Receivables Transaction; and

 

(14)         the Seller Notes as in effect on the date of the indenture and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the Seller Notes, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to such dividend and other restrictions than those contained in the Seller Notes on the Original Issue Date.

 

(f)            Asset Sales.  (i) The Company will not, and will not permit any of Worldspan or its Restricted Subsidiaries to, consummate an Asset Sale unless:

 

(1)           The Company, Worldspan (or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) receives consideration at the time of the Asset Sale at least equal to the fair market value of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or otherwise disposed of;

 

(2)           the fair market value is determined by the Company’s Board of Directors and evidenced by a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an officers’ certificate delivered to the Holders of the Notes; and

 

(3)           at least 75% of the consideration received in the Asset Sale by the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents.  For purposes of this provision, each of the following will be deemed to be cash:

 

(a)           any liabilities, as shown on the Company’s most recent consolidated balance sheet, of the Company, Worldspan or any Restricted Subsidiary (other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are by their terms subordinated to the Notes) that are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to an arrangement that releases the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary from further liability; and

 

(b)           any securities, notes or other obligations received by the Company, Worldspan or any such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are, within 90 days after receipt thereof, converted by the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash or Cash Equivalents, to the extent of the cash and Cash Equivalents received in that conversion.

 

Within 360 days after the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, the Company, Worldspan or its Restricted Subsidiary, whichever applicable, may apply those Net Proceeds at its option:

 

16



 

(1)           to repay, prepay or purchase Indebtedness and, if such Indebtedness repaid is revolving credit Indebtedness, to correspondingly reduce commitments with respect thereto;

 

(2)           to acquire all or substantially all of the assets of, or a majority of the Voting Stock of, a Person primarily engaged in a Permitted Business;

 

(3)           to make a capital expenditure;

 

(4)           to acquire other assets that are not classified as current assets under GAAP and that are used or useful in a Permitted Business;

 

(5)           to acquire the Capital Stock of a Person that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of the acquisition of the Capital Stock by Worldspan or another Restricted Subsidiary or to acquire Capital Stock constituting a minority interest in any Person; provided, in each case, that such Person is primarily engaged in a Permitted Business;

 

(6)           so long as any obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes or any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of the foregoing are still outstanding, for any other lawful purpose.

 

In the case of clauses (2), (4) and (5), the Company will also, and will cause Worldspan to also, comply with its obligations above if it, Worldspan or a Restricted Subsidiary enters into a binding commitment to acquire such assets, Voting Stock or Capital Stock within the required time frame above, provided that such binding commitment shall be subject only to customary conditions and such acquisition shall be consummated within six months from the date of signing such binding commitment.

 

Pending the final application of any Net Proceeds, the Company may temporarily reduce revolving credit borrowings or otherwise invest the Net Proceeds in any manner that is not prohibited by the Seller Notes.

 

(ii) Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales occurring after the repayment in full of all obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of either of the foregoing that are not applied or invested as provided in clauses (1)-(6) above will constitute “Excess Proceeds.”  Following the repayment in full of all obligations under the Credit Agreement, the Senior Notes and any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of either of the foregoing, when the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10 million, the Company will make an Asset Sale Offer to all Holders of Seller Notes and all holders of other Indebtedness that is pari passu with the Seller Notes containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Notes with respect to offers to purchase or redeem with the proceeds of sales of assets to purchase the maximum principal amount of Seller Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness that may be purchased out of the Excess Proceeds.  The offer price in any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of purchase (or, in respect of such other pari passu Indebtedness, such higher price, if any, as may be provided for by the terms of such pari passu Indebtedness), and will be payable in cash.  If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer, the Company may use those Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the Seller Notes.  If the aggregate principal amount of Seller Notes and other pari passu Indebtedness tendered into such

 

17



 

Asset Sale Offer exceeds the amount of Excess Proceeds, the Company will select the Seller Notes and such other pari passu Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis.  Upon completion of each Asset Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds will be reset at zero.

 

(iii) The Company will comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with each repurchase of Notes pursuant to an Asset Sale Offer.  To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the Asset Sale provisions of the Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached their obligations under the Asset Sale provisions of the Notes by virtue of such conflict.

 

(g)           Transactions with Affiliates.

 

The Company will not, and will not permit Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan, advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each, an “Affiliate Transaction”), unless:

 

(1)           the Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable to the Company, Worldspan or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company; and

 

(2)           the Company delivers to the Holders of the Notes:

 

(a)           with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $5.75 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors of the Company set forth in an officers’ certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction complies with this covenant and that such Affiliate Transaction has been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the applicable Board of Directors; and

 

(b)           with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of $17.25 million, an opinion as to the fairness to the Company of such Affiliate Transaction from a financial point of view or that such Affiliate Transaction is not less favorable to the Company, Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries than could reasonably be expected to be obtained in a comparable transaction with a Person that is not an Affiliate of the Company, as issued by an accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

 

The following items will not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and, therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

 

18



 

(1)           any employment agreement entered into by the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in the ordinary course of business of the Company, Worldspan or such Restricted Subsidiary;

 

(2)           transactions between or among the Company, Worldspan and/or its Restricted Subsidiaries;

 

(3)           transactions with a Person that is an Affiliate of the Company solely because the Company owns an Equity Interest in, or controls, such Person;

 

(4)           subject to Section 19 hereof, payment of reasonable fees, compensation or employee benefits arrangements to and indemnity provided for the benefit of employees, directors or officers of the Company, Worldspan or any Restricted Subsidiary of Worldspan in the ordinary course of business;

 

(5)           issuances or sales of Equity Interests (other than Disqualified Stock) to Affiliates, employees, officers and directors of the Company, Worldspan or any of their Subsidiaries;

 

(6)           subject to Section 19, payment of fees by the Company in an aggregate amount not to exceed $0.9 million per annum plus reimbursement expenses for advisory services pursuant to the Advisory Agreement;

 

(7)           Restricted Payments or Permitted Investments that are permitted under Section 5(b);

 

(8)           loans or advances to employees, directors, officers or consultants in an aggregate amount not to exceed $8.625 million outstanding at any one time;

 

(9)           transactions pursuant to any contract or agreement with the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in effect on the Original Issue Date, as the same may be amended, modified or replaced from time to time so long as any such amendment, modification or replacement is not less favorable to the Company, Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries in any material respect than the original agreement as in effect on the Original Issue Date;

 

(10)         the Senior Note Guarantees;

 

(11)         transactions pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement as in effect on the Original Issue Date or any similar agreement or any amendment, modification or replacement of such Stockholders Agreement or agreement provided that the terms of such amendment, modification or replacement is not more disadvantageous to the Holders of the Notes in any material respect than the terms contained in the Stockholders Agreement or similar agreement;

 

(12)         subject to Section 19, payment of the Class B Dividends;

 

(13)         the provisions by an Affiliate of commercial banking or lending services, investment banking or other similar services on terms that are no less favorable to the Company,

 

19



 

Worldspan or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained by an unaffiliated party and that are approved in good faith by a majority of the members of the applicable Board of Directors;

 

(14)         any transactions effected as part of a Qualified Receivables Transaction;

 

(15)         any transaction with customers, clients, or suppliers of the Company, Worldspan or its Restricted Subsidiaries on terms that are no less favorable to the Company, Worldspan or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained by an unaffiliated party and that are approved in good faith by a majority of the members of the applicable Board of Directors;

 

(16)         the dividend, distribution or acquisition of the capital stock of Worldspan International Inc. in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) hereof; and

 

(17)         any transactions effected by the Company pursuant to a Warehouse Share Transaction.

 

(h)           Merger, Consolidation, or Sale of Assets.

 

The Company may not and will not permit Worldspan to, directly or indirectly: (1) consolidate or merge with or into another Person (whether or not the Company or Worldspan is the surviving entity); or (2) sell, assign, transfer, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties or assets of the Company, Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole, in one or more related transactions, to another Person; unless:

 

(1)           either: (a) the Company or Worldspan, as the case may be, is the surviving entity; or (b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company or Worldspan) or to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made, as the case may be, is an entity organized or existing under the laws of the United States, any state of the United States or the District of Columbia (provided that if the person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger with the Company or Worldspan is not a corporation, a corporate co-issuer shall also be an obligor with respect to the Notes);

 

(2)           the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than the Company or Worldspan) or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made, as the case may be, assumes all the obligations of the Company under the Notes and the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders;

 

(3)           immediately after such transaction, no Default or Event of Default exists; and

 

(4)           (A) Worldspan or, if Worldspan is a party to the applicable consolidation or merger, the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or merger (if other than Worldspan), or the Person to which such sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition has been made, as the case may be:  will, on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto and any related financing transactions as if the same had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be permitted to incur at

 

20



 

least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of Section 5(c) or (B) the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio on the date of such transaction after giving pro forma effect thereto would be equal to or greater than the same ratio for Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately prior to the transaction.

 

This Section 5(h) will not apply to (A) a sale, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of assets between or among the Company, Worldspan and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (B) any merger or consolidation of (1) the Company with and into Worldspan or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Worldspan with and into the Company or one of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (2) the Company or Worldspan with and into an Affiliate of the Company for the purpose of incorporating or reincorporating or organizing or reorganizing the Company or Worldspan in the same or another jurisdiction in the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia.

 

(i)            Business Activities.  The Company will not, and will not permit Worldspan or any Subsidiary to, engage in any business other than Permitted Businesses, except to such extent as would not be material to the Company, Worldspan and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

 

(j)            Restrictions on Activities of Company.  The Company will not engage in any business activities other than holding the Capital Stock of Worldspan; provided that the Company may be a guarantor with respect to Indebtedness if Worldspan is an obligor of such Indebtedness and the net proceeds of such Indebtedness are received by Worldspan or one or more of Worldspan’s Restricted Subsidiaries, and the Company may incur the Indebtedness permitted by Section 5(k) hereof and be a party to, and subject to the terms of, the Founder Airline Services Agreements.

 

(k)           No Debt of the Company.

 

The Company shall not create, incur, issue or permit to exist any Indebtedness, except for (1) the Company’s guarantee on a basis senior to the Notes of any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred under Section 5(c) hereof, (2) the FASA Guarantees, (3) the incurrence of Indebtedness by the Company in the event of a Continuing Payment Termination or Worldspan Bankruptcy FASA Rejection and (4) the Seller Notes (including any Additional Notes thereon) and any amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings of the Seller Notes, provided that the amendments, modifications, restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or refinancings are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, with respect to dividend and other restrictions than those contained in the Seller Notes on the Original Issue Date.  The Company shall not issue any Disqualified Stock.

 

(l)            Payments for Consent.

 

The Company shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to or for the benefit of any Holder of Seller Notes for or as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or

 

21



 

provisions of the Seller Notes unless such consideration is offered to be paid and is paid to all Holders of the Seller Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent, waiver or agreement.

 

(m)          Designation of Restricted and Unrestricted Subsidiaries.  The Board of Directors of the Company may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary if that designation would not cause a Default.  If a Restricted Subsidiary is designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, the aggregate fair market value of all outstanding Investments owned by the Company, Worldspan and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary properly designated will be deemed to be an Investment made as of the time of the designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under the first paragraph of Section 5(b) hereof or Permitted Investments, as determined by the Company.  That designation will only be permitted if the Investment would be permitted at that time and if the Restricted Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.  The Board of Directors may redesignate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a Restricted Subsidiary if the redesignation would not cause a Default.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, at no time shall Worldspan be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

 

(n)           Taxes.  The Company shall pay, and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to pay, prior to delinquency, all material taxes, assessments, and governmental levies except such as are contested in good faith and by appropriate proceedings or where the failure to effect such payment is not adverse in any material respect to the Holders of the Notes.

 

(p)           Stay, Extension and Usury Laws.  The Company covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, plead, or in any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay, extension or usury law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Note; and the Company (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not, by resort to any such law, hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Holders, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law has been enacted.

 

(q)           Reports.  Whether or not required by the SEC’s rules and regulations, so long as any Notes are outstanding, the Company will furnish to the Holders of Notes, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and regulations:

 

(1)           all quarterly and annual reports that would be required to be filed with the SEC on Forms 10-Q and 10-K if Worldspan were required to file such reports; and

All such reports will be prepared in all material respects in accordance with all of the rules and regulations applicable to such reports.  Each annual report on Form 10-K will include a report on Worldspan’s consolidated financial statements by Worldspan’s certified independent accountants.  The Company’s reporting obligations with respect to clauses (1) and

(r)            Agreements.  The Company shall deliver true and complete copies of any amendments or modifications of the Senior Note Indenture and the Credit Agreement within ten Business Days of the execution of such amendments or modifications to the Initial Holder for so long as the Initial Holder and its Affiliates hold more than 50% of the principal amount of the Note owned by the Initial Holder on the Original Issue Date.

 

(s)           No Conflicting Agreements.  The Company shall not, and shall cause Worldspan to not, enter into any agreement or instrument that would prevent the Company from issuing Additional Notes in lieu of a cash payment of any or all of the Cash Interest Amount due on this Note in accordance with the second preamble of this Note.

 

(t)            Compliance Certificate.

 

(a)           The Company shall deliver to the Initial Holder, within 90 days after the end of each fiscal year, an officers’ certificate stating that a review of the activities of the Company and it’s Subsidiaries during the preceding fiscal year has been made under the supervision of the signing officers who shall be the President and the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, with a view to determining whether the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled its obligations under the Notes, and further stating, as to each such officer signing such certificate, that to the best of his or her knowledge the Company has kept, observed, performed and fulfilled each and every covenant contained in the Notes and is not in default in the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions and conditions of the Notes (or, if a Default or Event of Default has occurred, describing all such Defaults or Events of Default of which he or she may have knowledge) and that to the best of his or her knowledge no event has occurred and remains in existence by reason of which payments on account of the principal of, premium or interest, if any, on the Notes is prohibited or if such event has occurred, a description of the event.

 

(b)           So long as not contrary to the then current recommendations of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the year-end financial statements delivered to the Initial Holder pursuant to Section 5(q) above shall be accompanied by a written statement of the Company’s independent public accountants (who shall be a firm of established national reputation) that in making the examination necessary for certification of such financial statements, nothing has come to their attention that would lead them to believe that the Company has violated any provisions of Section 5 hereof or, if any such violation has occurred, specifying the nature and period of existence thereof, it being understood that such accountants shall not be liable directly or indirectly to any Person for any failure to obtain knowledge of any such violation.

 

(c)           So long as any of the Notes are outstanding, the Company shall deliver to the Initial Holder, forthwith upon any officer of the Company becoming aware of any Default or Event of Default, an officers’ certificate specifying such Default or Event of Default and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.

6.             Subordination

 

(a)           Agreement to Subordinate.  The Company agrees, and the Holder by accepting this Note agrees, that the Indebtedness evidenced by this Note is subordinated in right of payment, to the extent and in the manner expressly provided in this Article 6, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Designated Senior Debt (or, with respect to Section 6(b) below, Senior Debt) whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter created, incurred, assumed or guaranteed, and that the subordination is for the benefit of the holders of Senior Debt.

 

(b)           Liquidation; Dissolution; Bankruptcy.  Upon any distribution to creditors of the Company in a liquidation or dissolution of the Company or in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or similar proceeding relating to the Company or its property, in an assignment for the benefit of creditors relating to the Company or any marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities (“Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding”):

 

(i)            holders of Senior Debt will be entitled to receive payment in full of all outstanding Obligations in cash due in respect of such Senior Debt (including interest accruing after the commencement of any such bankruptcy proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt) before the Holders of Notes will be entitled to receive any payment in respect of the Notes (except that Holders of Notes may receive and retain Additional Notes (issued pursuant to the second paragraph of the preamble of this Note) and Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof); and

 

(ii)           until all outstanding Obligations in respect of Senior Debt (as provided in clause (i) above) are paid in full in cash, any distribution to which Holders would be entitled in respect of the Notes but for this Section 6 will be made to holders of Senior Debt (except that Holders of Notes may receive and retain Additional Notes (issued pursuant to the second paragraph of the preamble to this Note) and Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof), as their interests may appear.

 

(c)           Default on Designated Senior Debt.

 

(i)            The Company may not make any payment or distribution to any Holder in respect of Obligations under the Notes (other than Additional Notes (issued pursuant to the second paragraph of the preamble to this Note), Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof) and may not acquire from any Holder any Notes for cash or property (other than Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof) until all principal and other outstanding Obligations in respect of Designated Senior Debt have been paid in full in cash if:

 

(a)           a payment default on Designated Senior Debt occurs and is continuing beyond any applicable grace period in the agreement, indenture or other document governing such Designated Senior Debt; or

 

24



 

(b)           any other default occurs and is continuing on any series of Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of that series of Designated Senior Debt to accelerate its maturity and the Holder Representative receives a notice of such default (a “Payment Blockage Notice”) from the holders of such Designated Senior Debt or their Representative; provided that, in the event that the Holders do not designate a Holder Representative to the holders of Designated Senior Debt or their Representative, then the Payment Blockage Notice will be given to each Person for which the holders of Designated Senior Debt or their Representative has been given written notice identifying such Person as a Holder.  If the Holder receives any such Payment Blockage Notice, no subsequent Payment Blockage Notice will be effective for purposes of this Section unless and until (A) at least 360 days have elapsed since the delivery of the immediately prior Payment Blockage Notice and (B) all scheduled payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes that have come due have been paid in full in cash.

 

No nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any Payment Blockage Notice to the Holders may be, or may be made, the basis for a subsequent Payment Blockage Notice, unless, as of such date of delivery, such default has been cured or waived for a period of not less than 180 days.

 

(ii)           The Company may and will resume payments on and distributions in respect of the Notes and may acquire them upon the earlier of:

 

(a)           in the case of a payment default described in Section 6(c)(i)(a), upon the date on which such default is cured or waived, or

 

(b)           in the case of a nonpayment default described in Section 6(c)(i)(b), upon the earlier of the date on which such nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after the date on which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received by Holders, unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated,

 

if this Section 6 otherwise permits the payment, distribution or acquisition at the time of such payment, distribution or acquisition.

 

(d)           Acceleration of Notes.  If payment of the Notes is accelerated because of an Event of Default, the Company will promptly notify holders of Senior Debt of the acceleration.

 

(e)           When Distribution Must Be Paid Over.  In the event that any Holder receives any payment in respect of any Obligations under the Notes (other than Additional Notes (issued pursuant to the second paragraph of the preamble to this Note), Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from any defeasance trust created pursuant to Section 18(a) hereof) at a time when such payment is prohibited by Section 6(c) hereof, such payment will be held by such Holder, in trust for the benefit of, and will be paid forthwith over and delivered, upon written request, to, the Representatives, for application to the payment of all outstanding Obligations in respect of Designated Senior Debt remaining unpaid to the extent necessary to pay such outstanding Obligations in full in cash in accordance with their terms, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Designated Senior Debt.

 

25



 

(f)            Notice by Company.  The Company will promptly notify the Holders of any facts known to the Company that would cause a payment in respect of any Obligations under the Notes to violate this Section 6, but failure to give such notice will not affect the subordination of the Notes to the Senior Debt or Designated Senior Debt, as applicable, as expressly provided in this Section 6.

 

(g)           Subrogation.

 

(i)            After all outstanding Senior Debt is paid in full in cash and until the Notes are paid in full in cash, Holders of Notes will be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the extent that payments or distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of Notes have been applied to the payment of Senior Debt.  A payment or distribution made under this Article 6 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders of Notes is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company in respect of the Notes.

 

(ii)           Subject to Section 6(g)(i), in the case where no Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding exists,  after all outstanding Designated Senior Debt is paid in full in cash and until the Notes are paid in full in cash, Holders of Notes will be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with the Notes) to the rights of holders of Designated Senior Debt to receive payments or distributions applicable to Designated Senior Debt to the extent that payments or distributions otherwise payable to the Holders of Notes have been applied to the payment of Designated Senior Debt.  A payment or distribution made under this Article 6 to holders of Designated Senior Debt that otherwise would have been made to Holders of Notes is not, as between the Company and Holders, a payment by the Company in respect of the Notes.

 

(h)           Relative Rights.  This Section 6 defines the relative rights of Holders of Notes and holders of Senior Debt and Designated Senior Debt, as applicable.  Nothing in this Note will:

 

(i)            impair, as between the Company and Holders of Notes, the obligation of the Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay principal of, premium, if any, and interest in respect of the Notes in accordance with their terms;

 

(ii)           affect the relative rights of Holders of Notes and creditors of the Company other than their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt or Designated Senior Debt, as applicable; or

 

(iii)          prevent any Holder of Notes from exercising its available remedies upon a Default or Event of Default, subject to the rights of holders and owners of Senior Debt or Designated Senior Debt, as applicable, to receive distributions and payments otherwise payable to Holders of Notes in accordance with this Section 6.

 

If the Company fails because of this Section 6 to pay principal of, premium, if any, or interest in respect of a Note on the due date, the failure is still a Default or Event of Default.

 

26



 

(i)            Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company.  No right of any holder of Senior Debt or Designated Senior Debt, as applicable, to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes may be impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or any Holder or by the failure of the Company or any Holder to comply with the Note.

 

(j)            Distribution or Notice to Representative.  Whenever a distribution is to be made or a notice given to or by holders of Senior Debt, the distribution may be made and the notice given to or by their Representative.  Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to in this Section 6, the Holders of Notes will be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of such Representative or of the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Holders of Notes for the purpose of ascertaining the Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 6.  With respect to any Representative that does not submit such certificate, the Holders may rely on the books and records of the Parent for the purpose of making the determination set forth in the immediately prior sentence, unless objected to by any such Representative submitting any such certificate, in which case, the Holders may deposit such amount with a court of competent jurisdiction.

 

(k)           Reinstatement.

 

To the extent any payment of Senior Debt (whether by or on behalf of the Company, as proceeds of security or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required to be paid to any receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee, agent or other similar Person under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then if such payment is recovered by, or paid over to, such receiver, trustee in bankruptcy, liquidating trustee or other similar Person, the Senior Debt or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as if such payment had not occurred.  To the extent the obligation to repay any Senior Debt is declared to be fraudulent, invalid, or otherwise set aside under any bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, fraudulent conveyance or similar law, then the obligation so declared fraudulent, invalid or otherwise set aside (and all other amounts that would come due with respect thereto had such obligation not been so affected) shall be deemed to be reinstated and outstanding as Senior Debt for all purposes hereof as if such declaration, invalidity or setting aside had not occurred.

 

(l)            No Waiver of Subordination Provisions.  Without in any way limiting the generality of Section 6(i), such holders of Senior Debt as are required or permitted under the agreement, indenture or other document (if any) governing such Senior Debt, may, at any time and from time to time, without the consent of or notice to the Holders, without incurring responsibility to the Holders and without impairing or releasing the subordination provided in this Section 6 or the obligations hereunder of the Holders to the holders of Senior Debt, do any one or more of the following:  (a) change the manner, place or terms of payment or extend the time of payment, or renew or alter, Senior Debt or any instrument evidencing the same or any agreement under which Senior Debt is outstanding or secured; (b) sell, exchange or otherwise

 

27



 

deal with any property pledged, mortgaged or otherwise securing Senior Debt; (c) release any Person liable in any manner for the collection of Senior Debt and (d) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against the Company and any other Person.

 

(m)          Amendments.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, the terms of this Section 6 may not be amended or modified without the written consent of the lenders holding at least 51% of the aggregate commitments and loans under each Credit Facility constituting Senior Debt, holders of at least 51% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of each series of Senior Notes constituting Senior Debt and holders of at least 51% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of each series of Additional Permitted Notes (other than Senior Notes) constituting Senior Debt.

 

(n)           Obligations Paid in Full.  The expressions “payment in full,” “paid in full” and any other similar phrase when used herein with respect to “Obligations”, “Senior Debt” or “Designated Senior Debt” shall mean the indefeasible payment in full, in cash, of all such Obligations, Senior Debt or Designated Senior Debt, respectively, other than unmatured, contingent obligations which by their terms survive termination of the agreement evidencing the applicable Senior Debt.

 

7.             Events of Default

 

(a)           Each of the following is an “Event of Default”:

 

(i)            the Company defaults for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the Notes whether or not prohibited by the subordination provisions set forth in Section 6;

 

(ii)           the Company defaults in payment when due of the principal of, or premium, if any, on the Notes, whether or not prohibited by the subordination provisions set forth in Section 6;

(v)           failure by the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries for 60 days after notice from Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes to comply with any of the other agreements in the Notes;

28



 

(vii)         the Company, Worldspan or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries pursuant to or within the meaning of Bankruptcy Law:

 

(a)           commences a voluntary case,

 

(b)           consents to the entry of an order for relief against it in an involuntary case,

 

(c)           consents to the appointment of a custodian of it or for all or substantially all of its property,

 

(d)           makes a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or

 

(e)           generally is not paying its debts as they become due; or

and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 consecutive days.

 

(b)           Acceleration.  Subject to the provisions of Section 6, in the case of an Event of Default specified in clause (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(a) hereof, all outstanding Notes will become due and payable immediately without further action or notice.  If any other Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes by written notice to the Company and the Representatives (an “Acceleration Notice”), may declare the unpaid principal of, accrued interest and premium, if any, on the Notes to be immediately due and payable.  Upon such declaration, the principal and interest shall become and be immediately due and payable.  If an Event of Default specified in clause (vii) or (viii) of Section 7(a) occurs, all principal of, interest and premium, if any, on the Notes outstanding shall become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the Holders.   Any amounts received by the Holder in connection with any action taken pursuant to this Section 7(b) shall be subject to the provisions of Section 6.

 

(c)           Other Remedies.  Subject to the provisions of Section 6, if an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the holders of at least 25% of the outstanding principal amount of the Notes may pursue any available remedy by proceeding at law or in equity to collect the payment of principal of or interest and premium, if any, on the Notes or to enforce the

 

29



 

performance of any provision of the Notes.  A delay or omission by any Holder of a Note in exercising any right or remedy accruing upon an Event of Default shall not impair the right or remedy or constitute a waiver of or acquiescence in the Event of Default.  All remedies are cumulative to the extent permitted by law.

 

(d)           Waiver of Past Defaults.  The Majority Holders by notice to the Company may on behalf of the Holders of all of the Notes waive an existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences hereunder, except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the Notes (including in connection with an offer to purchase); provided, however, that the Majority Holders may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from such acceleration.  Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured for every purpose of the Notes; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or impair any right consequent thereon.

 

8.             Amendment and Waiver

(i)            reduce the principal amount of Notes whose Holders must consent to an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(iii)          reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest, including default interest, on any Note;

 

(iv)          waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of or premium, if any, or interest on the Notes (except a rescission of acceleration of the Notes by the Majority Holders and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

 

30



 

(v)           make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the Notes;

 

(vi)          make any change in the provisions of this Note relating to waivers of past Defaults or the rights of Holders of Notes to receive payments of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on the Notes;

 

(vii)         waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note (other than a payment required by one of the covenants contained in Sections 3(g) and 5(f)); or

10.           Replacement Notes

 

(a)           If a mutilated Note is surrendered to the Company or if the Holder of this Note presents evidence to the reasonable satisfaction of the Company that this Note has been lost, destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue a replacement Note of like tenor if the requirements of the Company for such transactions are met.  An indemnity agreement may be required that is sufficient in the reasonable judgment of the Company to protect the Company from any loss which it may suffer.  The Company may charge for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in replacing this Note.

 

(b)           If the Note is surrendered to the Company in order to effectuate the Company’s exercise of the setoff right to the extent permitted by Section 14, the Company shall issue a replacement Note of like tenor to the Holder provided that the amount of the replacement Note shall be reduced by the applicable Indemnity Claim Amount.

 

11.           No Recourse Against Others

 

No director, officer, employee, incorporator, Affiliate, stockholder or partner of the Company will have any liability for any obligations of the Company under this Note or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.  Each Holder of Notes by accepting this Note waives and releases all such liability.

WHEREAS, under a promissory note made by Buyer in favor of [Holder] in the initial principal amount of $[           ], dated as of June 30, 2003 (including Additional Notes (as defined in such promissory note), the “[Holder] Note”), Buyer may from time to time recoup against its obligations to make certain payments thereunder by depositing with Escrow Agent amounts otherwise payable to [Holder] thereunder into an escrow account established on behalf of [Holder] (the “Escrow Account”) on the terms and conditions set forth herein; and

 

WHEREAS, the Escrow Agent is willing to establish the Escrow Account on the terms and subject to the conditions hereinafter set forth;

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual covenants and agreements herein contained and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

 

1.             Establishment of Escrow Fund.

 

1.1           (a)           Subject to Section 1.1(b), from time to time, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the [Holder] Note, Buyer may recoup against its obligations to make certain cash payments to [Holder] thereunder by depositing with Escrow Agent into the Escrow Account all or a portion of the amount of such payments (each, a “[Holder] Note Deposit”).  Escrow Agent shall notify [Holder] and Buyer in writing of its receipt of each [Holder] Note Deposit promptly after receipt thereof.

 

(b)           The cumulative aggregate amount that can be held in the Escrow Account shall not exceed an amount (the “[Holder] Cap Amount”) (i) $15,600,000, less (ii) the amount of the aggregate principal then outstanding under any portion of the [Holder] Note then held by any one or more members of the [Holder] Group (as defined in Section 16.3) at the time of determination (the “Retained [Holder] Note Amount”) and less (iii) the cumulative aggregate amount distributed to Buyer from the Escrow Account in connection with any [Holder] Final

 



 

Determination (as defined in Section 3.3) of any [Holder] Indemnity Claim (as defined in Section 3.1) pursuant to Section 4.

 

(c)           Within five (5) Business Days after the end of each calendar quarter and at the time of any [Holder] Note Transfer, [Holder] and Buyer shall deliver to Escrow Agent a statement specifying the Retained [Holder] Note Amount outstanding as of the last day of such calendar quarter and immediately after any such [Holder] Note Transfer, respectively.  Escrow Agent may conclusively rely upon each such statement.

 

1.2           If all or a portion of the [Holder] Note is transferred to a third party in accordance with the terms thereof such that the [Holder] Group no longer holds, in the aggregate, a portion of the [Holder] Note evidencing at least $15,600,000 in principal amount thereon (any such transfer, an “[Holder] Note Transfer”), and at the time of the [Holder] Note Transfer, (A) the sum of (i) the cumulative aggregate amount of funds held in the Escrow Account, (ii) the Retained [Holder] Note Amount (after giving effect to such [Holder] Note Transfer) and (iii) the cumulative aggregate amount distributed to Buyer from the Escrow Account in connection with any [Holder] Final Determination of any [Holder] Indemnity Claim pursuant to Section 4 is less than (B) the smaller of $[              ] and, if the [Holder] Note Transfer occurs after September 30, 2004, the aggregate amount of all [Holder] Indemnity Claims outstanding as of such date, then [Holder] shall deposit with Escrow Agent into the Escrow Account, at the time of such [Holder] Note Transfer, such shortfall amount.  Simultaneously with such deposit, [Holder] and Buyer shall notify Escrow Agent in writing that a [Holder] Note Transfer has occurred and that such deposit is being made pursuant to this Section 1.2.

 

1.3           Escrow Agent agrees to hold, invest and dispose of all funds received pursuant to this Section 1 and any dividends, distributions, interest and other income accumulation or capital appreciation received therefrom (hereinafter collectively referred to as the “Escrow Fund”) in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Escrow Agreement.

in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to have been given when delivered if delivered by hand, when transmission confirmation is received if delivered by facsimile, three (3) Business Days after mailing if mailed, and one Business Day after deposit with an overnight courier service if delivered by overnight courier.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a notice or other communication is actually received after 5:00 p.m. at the recipient’s designated address, such notice or other communication shall be deemed to have been given the later of (i) the next Business Day or (ii) the Business Day on which such notice or other communication is deemed to have been given pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

 

12.           No Assignment.

 

This Escrow Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the successors, heirs, beneficiaries, distributees and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.  No assignment of any rights or delegation of any obligations provided for herein may be made by Escrow Agent except in accordance with the provisions of this Escrow Agreement and neither Buyer or Worldspan, on the one hand, nor [Holder], on the other hand, may assign its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of [Holder] or Buyer, respectively, and any such attempted assignment or delegation without such consent shall be void.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer may assign any of its rights and obligations hereunder in whole or in part to any Affiliate (as defined in Section 16.1) of Buyer and may collaterally assign its rights hereunder to any lender or financing source to Buyer, in each case, without the consent of the other parties hereto; provided, however, that no such assignment by Buyer shall relieve Buyer from any of its obligations hereunder.  Any corporation, association or agency into which the Escrow Agent may be converted or merged, or with which it may be consolidated, or to which it may sell or transfer its trust business and assets as a whole or substantially as a whole, or any corporation or association resulting from any such conversion, sale, merger, consolidation or transfer to which it is a party, ipso facto, shall be and become successor Escrow Agent hereunder and vested with all of the powers, discretions, immunities, privileges and all other matters as was its predecessor, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further set, deed or conveyance on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

13.           Counterparts.

 

This Escrow Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Escrow Agreement and all of which, when taken together, shall be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement.

 

14.           Section Headings.

 

The section headings contained in this Escrow Agreement are inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation hereof.

 

15.           Entire Agreement; Construction.

 

This Escrow Agreement, the [Holder] Note and the Purchase Agreement and any ancillary documents thereto constitute the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect

 

10



 

to the subject matter hereof.  Nothing contained in this Escrow Agreement shall be deemed to require either Buyer or Worldspan to exercise its rights under this Escrow Agreement in connection with any claims it may have under the Purchase Agreement in lieu of any other rights or remedies under such other agreements.

 

16.           Certain Defined Terms.

 

16.1         As used in this Escrow Agreement, “Affiliate” shall mean, as to any specified Person, any other Person which, directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under common control with, such specified Person.  For the purposes of this definition, “control” means the possession of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

17.           Amendments; Waivers.

 

17.1         This Escrow Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by [Holder], Buyer and Escrow Agent; provided, however, that this Escrow Agreement may not be amended unless Buyer and Escrow Agent offer to enter into the same amendment, if applicable, with (i) Northwest Airlines, Inc. with respect to the Worldspan/Northwest Escrow Agreement and (ii) Delta Air Lines, Inc. with respect to the Worldspan/Delta Escrow Agreement.

 

17.2         The terms of this Escrow Agreement may be waived only by a written instrument signed by the party that would have been able to require compliance therewith; provided, however, that none of Buyer, Worldspan or Escrow Agent may waive any provision of

 

11



 

this Escrow Agreement without also offering to waive, if applicable, the same provision under each of the Worldspan/Northwest Escrow Agreement and the Worldspan/Delta Escrow Agreement.  No delay on the part of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof.  No waiver on the part of any party of any such right, power or privilege shall preclude any further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other such right, power or privilege.

 

18.           No Third Party Beneficiaries.

 

18.1         This Escrow Agreement shall be for the benefit of the parties hereto and none of the provisions of this Escrow Agreement shall be for the benefit of or enforceable by any third party; provided, however, that Northwest Airlines, Inc. and Delta Air Lines, Inc. shall be third party beneficiaries to the proviso contained in Section 17.1 and the proviso contained in the first sentence of Section 17.2, and shall have the right to enforce such provisions directly.

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this [Holder] Escrow Agreement to be duly executed as of the day and year first above written.
