NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound hereby, agree as follows:

Section 1. Resignation and Appointment of Administrative Agent.

(a) Pursuant to Section 9.09 of the Credit Agreement, (i) the Required Lenders and the Borrower hereby accept the resignation of the Existing Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, (ii) the Required Lenders hereby appoint Wilmington Trust, National Association to act as the New Administrative Agent, (iii) the Borrower hereby consents to the appointment of Wilmington Trust, National Association as the New Administrative Agent and (iv) each of the Parties hereto waives (x) any applicable notice period or consent requirements under the Loan Documents with respect to the actions described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), in each case effective as of the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date (as defined below) and (y) with respect to clause (ii) above, the requirement that the successor agent be a Lender.

(b) The Existing Administrative Agent and the New Administrative Agent are hereby authorized by the Lenders to enter into any amendments to any Loan Document or other documentation (including the Agency Resignation Appointment and Assumption Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto (the “Agency Succession Agreement”)) or assignments and to take such actions (including making filings) desirable to effect such resignation and appointment. Further, the Required Lenders, on behalf of the Lenders, hereby agree to be bound by the Agency Succession Agreement. The parties hereto agree that, upon the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, Wilmington Trust, National Association shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the term “Administrative Agent” shall mean Wilmington Trust, National Association. Upon the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, Bank of America N.A.’s duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of Bank of America, N.A. or any parties to the Credit Agreement.

(c) Following the resignation of the Existing Administrative Agent on the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, the provisions of the Loan Documents, including Article IX


and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 of the Credit Agreement, shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in its capacity as Administrative Agent while it was the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement and after its resignation as Existing Administrative Agent and in connection with the Assignment Agreement.

(d) The Lenders hereby waive any requirement in Section 9.09 of the Credit Agreement that “the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent.”

Section 2. Intercreditor Agreement; Amendment; Revolving Credit Facility. The New Administrative Agent is hereby authorized and directed to enter into the Intercreditor Agreement concurrently with the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date and the Required Lenders, on behalf of the Lenders, agree to be bound thereby. In connection with the foregoing, and effective as of the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, (a) the Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Credit Agreement attached as Exhibit A hereto and (b) the Revolving Credit Commitments under and as defined in the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date are permanently reduced to $0 and terminated notwithstanding any notice requirements in the Credit Agreement immediately prior to or after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date.

Effective as of the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, the Specified Default, and any other Default or Event of Default relating thereto, is hereby waived. Any Collateral required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (a) of the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement and the terms of the Security Agreement and not previously delivered to the Existing Administrative Agent shall be delivered to the Revolving Administrative Agent (as bailee for the Administrative Agent) on or promptly following the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, and any Default or Event of Default arising from the Borrower’s or any Loan Party’s failure to deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent prior to the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date is hereby waived.

Section 4. Representations and Warranties, No Default. The Borrower hereby represents and warrants that, as of the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, (i) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and (ii) all representations and warranties made by the Borrower contained in the Credit Agreement or in the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the date hereof (except where such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date); provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to “materiality,” “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language shall be true and correct in all respects on the date hereof or on such earlier date, as the case may be (after giving effect to such qualification).

Section 5. Effectiveness. This Amendment shall become effective on the date (such date, the “Amendment No. 3 Effective Date”) that the following conditions have been satisfied:

(x) Compliance with Flood Insurance Regulations. The Existing Administrative Agent, the New Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have received a completed “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency Standard Flood Hazard Determination with respect to each Mortgaged Property and, for any Mortgaged Property on which any “building” (as defined in the Flood Insurance Laws, defined in the Credit Agreement) is located in a special flood hazard area, a notice duly executed by the Borrower acknowledging the special flood hazard area status together with evidence of flood insurance in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Existing Administrative Agent, the New Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

(xi) Mortgages. With respect to each Mortgage, the New Administrative Agent shall have received either the items listed in paragraph (x) or the items listed in paragraph (y) as follows:

(x) (i) a favorable opinion or written confirmation, addressed to the New Administrative Agent and each of the Secured Parties, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the New Administrative Agent and the Lenders, from local counsel in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located substantially to the effect that:

(A) the recording of the existing Mortgage is the only filing or recording necessary to give constructive notice to third parties of the lien created by such Mortgage as security for the Obligations, including the Obligations evidenced by the Credit Agreement and the other documents executed in connection therewith, for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and


(B) no other documents, instruments, filings, recordings, re-recordings, re-filings or other actions, including, without limitation, the payment of any mortgage recording taxes or similar taxes, are necessary or appropriate under applicable law in order to maintain the continued enforceability, validity or priority of the lien created by such Mortgage as security for the Obligations, including the Obligations evidenced by the Credit Agreement and the other documents executed in connection therewith, for the benefit of the Secured Parties; and

(ii) a title search to the applicable real property encumbered by a Mortgage demonstrating that such real property is free and clear of all Liens (except those Liens created or permitted under the Credit Agreement and the Collateral Documents); or

(y) with respect to the existing Mortgages, the following:

(i) an amendment to the existing Mortgage (the “Mortgage Amendment”) to reflect the matters set forth in this Amendment, duly executed and acknowledged by the applicable Loan Party, and in form for recording in the recording office where such Mortgage was recorded, together with such certificates, affidavits, questionnaires or returns as shall be required in connection with the recording or filing thereof under applicable law;

(ii) a favorable opinion, addressed to the New Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties covering, among other things, the due authorization, execution, delivery and enforceability of the applicable Mortgage as amended by the Mortgage Amendment (such opinion may take assumptions for any matters addressed in the local counsel opinion originally delivered in connection with the Mortgage);

(iii) a date down endorsement to the existing Mortgage Policy insuring each Mortgage, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the New Administrative Agent and the Lenders and reasonably assure the New Administrative Agent as of the date of such endorsement that the real property subject to the lien of such Mortgage is free and clear of all defects and encumbrances except those Liens permitted under such Mortgage;

(iv) evidence of payment by the Borrower of all search and examination charges escrow charges and related charges, mortgage recording taxes, fees, charges, costs and expenses required for the recording of the Mortgage Amendment referred to above; and


(v) such affidavits, certificates, information and instruments of indemnification as shall be required to induce the title insurance company to issue the endorsement to the Mortgage Policy contemplated in subparagraph (iii) above, and evidence of payment of all applicable title insurance premiums, search and examination charges, mortgage recording taxes and related charges required for the issuance of the endorsement to the Mortgage Policy contemplated in subparagraph (iii) above.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 5, each Lender that has signed this Amendment shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted, or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Existing Administrative Agent and the New Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Amendment No. 3 Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

Section 10. Headings. The headings of this Amendment are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.

amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document. Except as expressly set forth herein, each and every term, condition, obligation, covenant and agreement contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document is hereby ratified and re-affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect and the Borrower reaffirms its obligations under the Loan Documents to which it is party and the grant of its Liens on the Collateral made by it pursuant to the Collateral Documents. This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document for purposes of the Credit Agreement, including without limitation for purposes of Sections 10.15 and 10.16 thereof, and from and after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, all references to the Credit Agreement in any Loan Document and all references in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement,” “hereunder,” “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement, shall, unless expressly provided otherwise, refer to the Credit Agreement as amended by this Amendment. The Borrower hereby consents to this Amendment and confirms that all of its obligations under the Loan Documents to which the Borrower is a party shall continue to apply to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.

Section 12. Governing Laws. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 2.02. Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations of Loans.

(a) Each Term Borrowing, each conversion of Term Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be made upon the Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) a Committed Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Committed Loan Notice. Each such Committed Loan Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 noon (i) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of LIBOR Loans or any conversion of Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans and (ii) one (1) Business Day before the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; provided that such notice shall be delivered (x) not later than 12:00 noon one Business Day prior to the Closing Date in the case of the initial Credit Extensions to be made on the Closing Date and (y) not later than 12:00 noon one Business Day prior to the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date in the case of the Credit Extensions to be made on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.

Date, each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof. Each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Each Committed Loan Notice shall specify (i) whether the Borrower is requesting a Term Borrowing, a conversion of Term Loans of a specified Class from one Type to the other, or a continuation of LIBOR Loans, (ii) the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day), (iii) the Class of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, as the case may be, and the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued, and (iv) the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Term Loans are to be converted and (v) if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto. If the Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Committed Loan Notice or fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the Term Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans (unless the Loan being continued is a LIBOR Loan, in which case it shall be continued as a LIBOR Loan with an Interest Period of one month). Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable LIBOR Loans. If the Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of LIBOR Loans in any such Committed Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one (1) month.

(b) Following receipt of a Committed Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the amount of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Class of Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation described in Section 2.02(a). In the case of each Borrowing, each Appropriate Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 1:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in the applicable Committed Loan Notice. The Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

(c) Except as otherwise provided herein, a LIBOR Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of an Interest Period for such LIBOR Loan unless the Borrower pays the amount due, if any, under Section 3.05 in connection therewith. During the existence of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may require that no Loans may be converted to or continued as LIBOR Loans.

(d) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for LIBOR Loans upon determination of such interest rate. The determination of LIBOR by the Administrative Agent shall be presumed correct in the absence of manifest error.

 

-61-


(e) After giving effect to all Term Borrowings, all conversions of Term Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Term Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than fifteen (15) Interest Periods in effect unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(f) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.

(g) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (b) above, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available, then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, each of such Lender and the Borrower severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 2.02(g) shall be presumed correct in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s portion of such Borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon accruing from the date on which the Administrative Agent made the funds available to the Borrower at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement, and the Borrower’s obligation to repay the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount pursuant to this Section 2.02(g) shall cease.

(3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Auction Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three (3) Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Auction Agent will determine (in consultation with such Loan Party and subject to rounding requirements of the Auction Agent made in its sole reasonable discretion) the aggregate principal amount and the Classes of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by the relevant Loan Party at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.05(a)(v)(D).

Percentage shall be 25% if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the fiscal year covered by such financial statements was less than 2.25 to 1.00 and greater than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00 and (y) the ECF Percentage shall be 0% if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the fiscal year covered by such financial statements was less than 1.75 to 1.00.

(ii) (A) If (1)(x) the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries Disposes of any property or assets (other than any Disposition of any property or assets permitted by Section 7.05(a), (b), (c), (d) (to the extent constituting a Disposition to a Loan Party), (e), (g), (h), (k), (l) or (o)) or (y) any Casualty Event occurs, which results in the realization or receipt by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary of Net Cash Proceeds and (2) the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the Test Period immediately preceding such Disposition or Casualty Event is greater than 2.00 to 1.00 (calculated on a Pro Forma Basis), the Borrower shall offer to prepay on or prior to the date which is ten (10) Business Days after the date of the realization or receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, subject to clause (b)(vi) of this Section 2.05, an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 100% (such percentage as it may be reduced as described below, the “Disposition Prepayment Percentage”) of all Net Cash Proceeds realized or received (or, at the option of the Borrower, use such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement, cash collateralize outstanding letter of credit obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement and permanently reduce outstanding commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement); provided that (x) the Disposition Prepayment Percentage shall be 75% if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the Test Period immediately preceding such Disposition or Casualty Event was less or equal to 2.00 to 1.00 and greater than 1.50 to 1.00 and (y) the Disposition Prepayment Percentage shall be 0% if the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio as of the end of the Test Period immediately preceding such Disposition or Casualty Event was less than 1.50 to 1.00; and provided, further that:

 

  (1) no prepayment shall be required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A) with respect to such portion of such Net Cash Proceeds that the Borrower shall have, on or prior to such date, given written notice to the Administrative Agent of its intent to reinvest in accordance with Section 2.05(b)(ii)(B) (which notice may be provided only if no Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is then continuing);

 

  (2) with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with a Disposition in the form of an exchange of like property pursuant to Section 7.05(n), no prepayment shall be required so long as (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing and (B) the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not applied pursuant to this clause (2) does not exceed $100,000,000 in the aggregate (and thereafter only Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such amount shall be required to be so applied); and

 

  (3) with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in connection with any Disposition other than pursuant to Section 7.05(n), no prepayment shall be required so long as (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is then continuing and (B) the aggregate amount of such Net Cash Proceeds not applied pursuant to this clause (3) does not exceed (x) with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received in connection with the sale or issuance of Equity Interests in Restricted Subsidiaries to Hospital Investment Program Participants (“Syndication Proceeds”) pursuant to Section 7.05(r), $40,000,000 per fiscal year (and thereafter only Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such amount shall be required to be so applied) and (y) with respect to all other Net Cash Proceeds received in connection with Dispositions (including Syndication Proceeds in excess of $40,000,000 per fiscal year), $75,000,000 per fiscal year (and thereafter only Net Cash Proceeds in excess of such amount shall be required to be so applied).

 

-71-


(B) With respect to any Net Cash Proceeds realized or received with respect to any Disposition (other than any Disposition specifically excluded from the application of Section 2.05(b)(ii)(A)) or any Casualty Event, at the option of the Borrower, the Borrower may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business within (x) twenty-four (24) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds if such reinvestment relates a Greenfield Construction Project, (y) twelve (12) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds for any other purpose; provided that, in respect of the Specified Proceeds, the Borrower may reinvest all or any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds in assets useful for its business within twenty-four (24) months following receipt of such Specified Proceeds or (z) thirty-six (36) months following receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds if the Borrower enters into a legally binding commitment to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within the time periods set forth in sub-clauses (x) or (y) above; provided that if any portion of such Net Cash Proceeds has not been so reinvested within the time periods set forth in sub-clauses (x), (y) or (z) above, subject to clause (b)(vi) of this Section 2.05, an amount equal to any such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied within five (5) Business Days after the last day of such period to the prepayment of the Term Loans (or, at the option of the Borrower, use such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement, cash collateralize outstanding letter of credit obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement and permanently reduce outstanding commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement) as set forth in this Section 2.05.

(iii) If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs any Refinancing Incremental Term Loans or Refinancing Notes, the Borrower shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of Term Loans equal to 100% of all Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days after the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds.

(iv) [Reserved].

(v) (X) Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to subclauses (i), (ii) or (iii) of this Section 2.05(b) shall be applied (A) to the Term Loans of each Class on a pro rata basis based on the respective amounts of Term Loans of each Class (except to the extent that any Class of Term Loans established pursuant to any Additional Credit Extension Amendment is entitled to receive a lesser share of any such prepayment pursuant to the terms of any Additional Credit Extension Amendment) and to the remaining scheduled installments of principal thereof pursuant to Section 2.07(a) or (b), as applicable, in a manner determined at the discretion of the Borrower and specified to the Administrative Agent; and (Y) each such prepayment shall be paid to the Term Lenders of each Class on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective holdings of Term Loans of such Class subject to clause (vi) of this Section 2.05(b).

(vi) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent in writing of any mandatory prepayment of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.05(b) at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date of such prepayment. Each such notice shall specify the date of such prepayment and provide a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each applicable Lender of the contents of the Borrower’s prepayment notice and of such Lender’s share of the prepayment (as determined pursuant to clause (v) above). Each Lender may reject all or a portion of its share of any mandatory prepayment (such declined

 

-72-


amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans required to be made pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) of this Section 2.05(b) by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) one Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such prepayment. Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory repayment of Term Loans to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender fails to deliver a Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory prepayment of Term Loans. Any Declined Proceeds shall be offered to the Lenders with the Class(es) of Term Loans not so declining such prepayment on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective principal amounts of such Term Loans (with such non-declining Lenders having the right to decline any prepayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent). To the extent such non-declining Lenders elect to decline their pro rata share of such Declined Proceeds, any Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter shall be retained by the Borrower (“Retained Declined Proceeds”).

(vii) The Borrower shall prepay all existing Loans that are not Converted Term Loans on the Closing Date together with all accrued interest and fees owing under the Existing Credit Agreement (including in respect of Converted Term Loans). For the avoidance of doubt, no amount shall be payable under Section 3.05 in respect of the principal amount of any Converted Term Loans as a result of their conversion into Term B-1 Loans.

(viii) The Borrower shall prepay all Term B-1 Loans that are not Converted Term B-1 Loans on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date together with all accrued interest and fees owing with respect thereto (including in respect of Converted Term B-1 Loans). For the avoidance of doubt, no amount shall be payable under Section 3.05 in respect of the principal amount of any Converted Term B-1 Loans as a result of their conversion into Term B-2 Loans.

(c) Interest, Funding Losses, Etc. All prepayments under this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, together with, in the case of any such prepayment of a LIBOR Loan on a date other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, any amounts owing in respect of such LIBOR Loan pursuant to Section 3.05.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 2.05, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, if any prepayment of LIBOR Loans is required to be made under this Section 2.05 prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, in lieu of making any payment pursuant to this Section 2.05 in respect of any such LIBOR Loan prior to the last day of the Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, deposit the amount of any such prepayment otherwise required to be made thereunder into a Cash Collateral Account until the last day of such Interest Period, at which time the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of such Loans in accordance with this Section 2.05. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall also be authorized (without any further action by or notice to or from the Borrower or any other Loan Party) to apply such amount to the prepayment of the outstanding Loans in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Section 2.05.

SECTION 2.06. Termination or Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Optional. The Borrower may, upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate the unused Commitments of any Class, or from time to time permanently reduce the unused Commitments of any Class, in each case without premium or penalty; provided that (i) any such notice shall be received by the Administrative Agent one (1) Business Day prior to the date of termination or reduction and (ii) any such partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount of $500,000 or any whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of the Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the Facilities and such refinancing is not consummated or is delayed.

(b) Mandatory. The Additional Term B-1 Commitment of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the earlier of (i) the making of such Term Lender’s Term B-1 Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and (ii) 5:00 p.m. on the Closing Date. The Additional Term B-2 Commitment of each Term Lender shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0 upon the earlier of (i) the making of such Term Lender’s Term B-2 Loans pursuant to Section 2.01(b) and (ii) 5:00 p.m. on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.

SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Loans.

(a) Term B-2 Loans. The Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Term Lenders with Term B-2 Loans (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the last Business Day of March 2013, an aggregate principal amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term B-2 Loans outstanding on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date (which payments shall be reduced as a result of the application of prepayments as directed by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.05) and (ii) on the Maturity Date for the Term B-2 Loans, the aggregate principal amount of all Term B-2 Loans outstanding on such date.

(b) Other Term Loans. The Borrower shall repay each Class of Term Loans (other than Term B-2 Loans) on the dates and in the amounts set forth in the Additional Credit Extension Amendment with respect to such Term Loans.

SECTION 2.08. Interest.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08(b), (i) each LIBOR Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof for each Interest Period at a rate per annum equal to LIBOR for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate and (ii) each Base Rate Loan shall bear interest on the outstanding principal amount thereof from the applicable borrowing date at a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

 

-74-


(b) The Borrower shall pay interest on past due amounts hereunder at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws. Accrued and unpaid interest on past due amounts (including interest on past due interest) shall be due and payable upon demand.

(c) Interest on each Loan shall be due and payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto and at such other times as may be specified herein; provided that accrued and unpaid interest on each Term B-1 Loan (including any Converted Term B-1 Loan) shall be due and payable on the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date. Interest hereunder shall be due and payable in accordance with the terms hereof before and after judgment, and before and after the commencement of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law.

SECTION 2.09. Fees. The Borrower shall pay to the Agents such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever (except as expressly agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Agent).

SECTION 2.10. Computation of Interest and Fees. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty-five (365) days or three hundred and sixty-six (366) days, as applicable, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a three hundred and sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid; provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one (1) day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be presumed correct for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.11. Evidence of Indebtedness.

(a) The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and evidenced by one or more entries in the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent, acting solely for purposes of Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c), as agent for the Borrower, in each case in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to the Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Administrative Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall

 

-75-


evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.

(b) [Reserved].

(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.11(a), and by each Lender in its account or accounts pursuant to Section 2.11(a), shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, absent manifest error; provided that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 2.12. Payments Generally.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower shall be made without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office and in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 p.m. New York City time shall be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue.

(b) If any payment to be made by the Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that, if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of LIBOR Loans to be made in the next succeeding calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day.

(c) Unless the Borrower or any Lender has notified the Administrative Agent, prior to the date any payment is required to be made by it to the Administrative Agent hereunder, that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, has timely made such payment and may (but shall not be so required

 

-76-


to), in reliance thereon, make available a corresponding amount to the Person entitled thereto. If and to the extent that such payment was not in fact made to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds, then:

(i) if the Borrower failed to make such payment, each Lender shall forthwith on demand repay to the Administrative Agent the portion of such assumed payment that was made available to such Lender in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds at the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect; and

(ii) if any Lender failed to make such payment, such Lender shall forthwith on demand pay to the Administrative Agent the amount thereof in immediately available funds, together with interest thereon for the period from the date such amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower to the date such amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent (the “Compensation Period”) at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect. When such Lender makes payment to the Administrative Agent (together with all accrued interest thereon), then such payment amount (excluding the amount of any interest which may have accrued and been paid in respect of such late payment) shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in the applicable Borrowing. If such Lender does not pay such amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent may make a demand therefor upon the Borrower, and the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Administrative Agent, together with interest thereon for the Compensation Period at a rate per annum equal to the rate of interest applicable to the applicable Borrowing. Nothing herein shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment or to prejudice any rights that the Administrative Agent or the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this Section 2.12(c) shall be presumed correct, absent manifest error.

(d) If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.

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

(f) Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.

 

-77-


(g) Whenever any payment received by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Administrative Agent and applied by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 8.03. If the Administrative Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Loan Parties under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Loans outstanding at such time.

SECTION 2.13. Sharing of Payments. If, other than as expressly provided elsewhere herein, any Lender shall obtain on account of the Loans made by it any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of its ratable share (or other share contemplated hereunder) thereof, such Lender shall immediately (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment in respect of such Loans or such participations, as the case may be, pro rata with each of them; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 10.06 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the purchasing Lender in its discretion), such purchase shall to that extent be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price paid therefor, together with an amount equal to such paying Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such paying Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered, without further interest thereon. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender may, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of setoff, but subject to Section 10.09) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. The Administrative Agent will keep records (which shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of manifest error) of participations purchased under this Section 2.13 and will in each case notify the Lenders following any such purchases or repayments. Each Lender that purchases a participation pursuant to this Section 2.13 shall from and after such purchase have the right to give all notices, requests, demands, directions and other communications under this Agreement with respect to the portion of the Obligations purchased to the same extent as though the purchasing Lender were the original owner of the Obligations purchased.

 

-78-


SECTION 2.14. Incremental Credit Extensions.

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the Closing Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent (whereupon the Administrative Agent shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), request one or more additional Classes of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”); provided that both at the time of any such request and upon the effectiveness of any Additional Credit Extension Amendment referred to below (an “Incremental Effective Date”), no Default or Event of Default shall exist and at the time that any such Incremental Term Loan is made (and after giving effect thereto) no Default or Event of Default shall exist. Each Class of Incremental Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $50,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $50,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth in the next sentence). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, except in the case of Refinancing Incremental Term Loans, on a Pro Forma Basis and after giving effect to the borrowing of all such Incremental Term Loans , the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio (excluding from the calculation thereof for this purpose the cash proceeds of the aggregate amount of Incremental Term Loans that are the subject of such Additional Credit Extension Amendment and other Indebtedness secured by a Lien permitted by Section 7.01(aa) incurred on such Incremental Effective Date) for the most recently ended Test Period shall be less than or equal to 3.75 to 1.0. The Incremental Term Loans (a) shall rank pari passu in right of payment and of security with the then existing Term Loans (including with respect to all provisions of Section 8.03), (b) shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date with respect to any then outstanding Term Loans, (c) shall not have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is less than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Class of Term Loans with the longest Weighted Average Life to Maturity and (d) shall be treated substantially the same as the other then outstanding Term Loans (in each case, including with respect to mandatory and voluntary prepayments), provided that (i) the terms and conditions applicable to Incremental Term Loans may be materially different from those of the Term Loans, provided, that prior to the latest Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to the Incremental Effective Date, (x) no Additional Credit Extension Amendment may provide for a financial covenant applicable only to, or materially more restrictive than a financial covenant applicable to, the Incremental Term Loans incurred pursuant to such Additional Credit Extension Amendment and (y) the Incremental Term Loans, (I) in the case of any voluntary prepayments with respect to other Classes of Term Loans hereunder, may participate on a pro rata basis or less than or greater than pro rata basis with other Classes of Term Loans hereunder, provided, further, that voluntary prepayments may be applied on a greater than pro rata basis to any Incremental Term Loans only to the extent applied to any Class or Classes of Term Loans with an earlier Maturity Date as compared with the remaining Classes of Term Loans then outstanding (it being understood the following clause (II) shall apply to any refinancing of such Class or Classes); and (II) in the case of any mandatory prepayments with respect to other Classes of Term Loans hereunder, may participate on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis, but not on a greater than pro rata basis except for prepayments pursuant to Section 2.05(b)(iii); and (ii) the interest rates and amortization schedule applicable to the Incremental

 

-79-


Term Loans shall be determined by the Borrower and the lenders thereof, subject to the limitation set forth in clause (c) above, provided further, that in the event that the All-In Yield of any Incremental Term Loans, other than Refinancing Incremental Term Loans, is more than 50 basis points greater than the All-In Yield of the Term B-2 Loans, then the Applicable Rates for the Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the All-In Yield for such Incremental Term Loans is no more than 50 basis points greater than the All-In Yield for the Term B-2 Loans. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Term Loans. Incremental Term Loans may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank or other financial institution approved by the Borrower (any such other bank or other financial institution being called an “Additional Lender”). Commitments in respect of Incremental Term Loans shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an Additional Credit Extension Amendment, executed by Holdings, the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. The Additional Credit Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent (solely as such amendments relate to the Administrative Agent and, in any event, not subject to the approval of any Lender, including through the operation of Section 9.01(b) (other than in such Lender’s capacity as the Administrative Agent, if applicable)), and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section. The effectiveness of (and, in the case of any Additional Credit Extension Amendment for an Incremental Term Loan, the borrowing under) any Additional Credit Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood that all references to “the date of such Credit Extension” or similar language in such Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Additional Credit Extension Amendment and borrowing of the applicable Incremental Term Loan) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loans for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Term Loans unless it so agrees.

(b) This Section 2.14 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.13 or 10.01 to the contrary.

SECTION 2.15. Defaulting Lenders.

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

(i) Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in Section 10.01.

ARTICLE III

Taxes, Increased Costs Protection and Illegality

SECTION 3.01. Taxes.

(a) Except as required by applicable Law, any and all payments by any Loan Party to or for the account of any Agent or any Lender under any Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Taxes.

(b) If any Loan Party or any other applicable withholding agent is required by applicable Law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Non-Excluded Tax or Other Taxes from any sum paid or payable by any Loan Party to any Lender or Agent under any of the Loan Documents: (i) the applicable Loan Party shall notify the Administrative Agent of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as such Loan Party becomes aware of it; (ii) the applicable Loan Party or withholding agent shall make such deduction or withholding and pay to the relevant Governmental Authority any such Non-Excluded Tax or Other Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Loan Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on the Lender or Agent) on behalf of and in the name of the Lender or Agent (as applicable); (iii) the sum payable to such Lender or Agent (as applicable) shall be increased by such Loan Party to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of any required deduction or withholding (including any deductions or withholdings attributable to any payments required to be made under this Section 3.01), the Lender or the Agent (as applicable), receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been required or made; and (iv) within thirty days after paying any sum from which it is required by Law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) above to pay, the Borrower making such payments shall deliver to the Administrative Agent evidence reasonably satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction or withholding and of the remittance thereof to the relevant Governmental Authority.

(c) Status of Lender. Each Lender shall, at such times as are reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, provide the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with any documentation prescribed by Laws or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent certifying as to any entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction in, withholding Tax with respect to any payments to be made to such Lender under any Loan Document. Each such Lender shall, whenever a lapse in time or change in circumstances renders such documentation (including any specific documentation required below in this Section 3.01(c)) obsolete, expired or inaccurate in any material respect, deliver promptly to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent updated or other appropriate documentation (including any new documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) or promptly notify the Borrower and Administrative Agent of its inability to do so.

 

-83-


Without limiting the foregoing:

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

(2) Each Foreign Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or before the date on which it becomes a party to this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent) whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms) claiming eligibility for the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, and such other documentation as required under the Code,

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

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code, (A) two properly completed and duly signed certificates substantially in the form of Exhibits J-1 through J-4 (any such certificate, a “United States Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (B) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of IRS Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms),

(E) two properly completed and duly signed original copies of any other form prescribed by applicable U.S. federal income tax laws (including the Treasury Regulations) as a basis for claiming a complete exemption from, or a reduction in, United States federal withholding tax on any payments to such Lender under the Loan Documents.

(3) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of those Sections (including those

 

-84-


contained in Sections 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine whether such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under such Sections and, if necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of FATCA, from and after the Amendment No. 3 Effective Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement and all loans made hereunder (including any Loans currently outstanding) as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i) (notwithstanding whether or not the grandfathering rules under such Treasury Regulations Section apply with respect to a particular Loan or Loans).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (c), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any form that such Lender is not legally eligible to deliver.

(d) In addition to the payments by a Loan Party required by Section 3.01(b), the applicable Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith and delivered by the Tax Indemnitee or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of another Tax Indemnitee, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) If and to the extent that a Tax Indemnitee, in its sole discretion (exercised in good faith), determines that it has received a refund of any Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes in respect of which it has received additional payments under this Section 3.01, then such Tax Indemnitee shall pay to the relevant Loan Party the amount of such refund, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Tax Indemnitee (including any Taxes imposed with respect to such refund), and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Loan Party, upon the request of the Tax Indemnitee, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Tax Indemnitee (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Tax Indemnitee if the Tax Indemnitee is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require a Tax Indemnitee to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

SECTION 3.02. Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund any LIBOR Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the applicable LIBOR, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue any affected LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to such LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans and shall upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all then outstanding affected LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 3.05. Each Lender agrees to designate a different Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for such notice and will not, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender.

SECTION 3.03. Inability to Determine Rates. If the Required Lenders determine that by reason of any changes affecting the London interbank eurodollar market adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan, or that LIBOR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, or that deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurodollar market for the applicable amount and the Interest Period of such LIBOR Loan, in each case due to circumstances arising on or after the date hereof, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain any affected LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of LIBOR Loans or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.

SECTION 3.04. Increased Cost and Reduced Return; Capital Adequacy; Reserves on LIBOR Loans.

(a) If any Lender reasonably determines that as a result of the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any Law, in each case after the date hereof (provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, for all purposes of this Section 3.04 (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer

 

-86-


Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to be a “Change in Law” regardless of the date enacted, adopted or issued) (a “Change in Law”), there shall be any increase in the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining LIBOR Loans, or a reduction in the amount received or receivable by such Lender in connection with any of the foregoing, including subjecting any Lender to any Tax with respect to this Agreement or any LIBOR Loan made by it, or changing the basis of taxation of payments to such Lender in respect thereof (excluding for purposes of this Section 3.04(a) any such increased costs or reduction in amount resulting from (i) Non-Excluded Taxes or Other Taxes covered by Section 3.01, or any Excluded Taxes and (ii) reserve requirements contemplated by Section 3.04(c)) that does not represent the cost to such Lender of complying with the requirements applicable Law in relation to its making, funding or maintaining of LIBOR Loans, then from time to time within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail such increased costs (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduction. At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in this Section 3.04(a), the Borrower may either (i) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed promptly in writing) thereof on the same date that the Borrower receives any such demand from such Lender or (ii) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert a LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan, if applicable.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or any change therein or in the interpretation thereof, in each case after the date hereof, or compliance by such Lender (or its Lending Office) therewith, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder (taking into consideration its policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements), then from time to time upon demand of such Lender setting forth in reasonable detail the charge and the calculation of such reduced rate of return (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent given in accordance with Section 3.06), the Borrower shall promptly pay to such Lender such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender for such reduction after receipt of such demand.

(c) If any Lender requests compensation under this Section 3.04, then such Lender will, if requested by the Borrower, use commercially reasonable efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan affected

 

-87-


by such event; provided that such efforts are made on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its Lending Office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage, and provided further that nothing in this Section 3.04(c) shall affect or postpone any of the Obligations of the Borrower or the rights of such Lender pursuant to Section 3.04(a) or (b).

SECTION 3.05. Funding Losses. Upon written demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, which demand shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount, the Borrower shall promptly compensate such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense reasonably incurred by it as a result of:

(a) any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any LIBOR Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan; or

(b) any failure by the Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any LIBOR Loan on the date or in the amount notified by the Borrower;

including any loss or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits and without giving effect to the minimum rate set forth in the definition of LIBOR) actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such LIBOR Loan or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

SECTION 3.06. Matters Applicable to All Requests for Compensation.

(a) Any Agent or Lender claiming compensation under this Article III shall deliver a certificate to the Borrower setting forth the additional amount or amounts to be paid to it hereunder which shall be presumed correct in the absence of manifest error. In determining such amount, such Agent or Lender may use any reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(b) With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If any Lender requests compensation by the Borrower under Section 3.04, the Borrower may, by notice to such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), suspend the obligation of such Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another LIBOR Loans, or to convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, until the event or condition giving rise to such request ceases to be in effect (in which case the provisions of Section 3.06(c) shall be applicable); provided that such suspension shall not affect the right of such Lender to receive the compensation so requested.

 

-88-


(c) If the obligation of any Lender to make or continue from one Interest Period to another any LIBOR Loan, or to convert Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans shall be suspended pursuant to Section 3.06(b) hereof, such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be automatically converted into Base Rate Loans on the last day(s) of the then current Interest Period(s) for such LIBOR Loans (or, in the case of an immediate conversion required by Section 3.02, on such earlier date as required by Law) and, unless and until such Lender gives notice as provided below that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to such conversion no longer exist:

(i) to the extent that such Lender’s LIBOR Loans have been so converted, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise be applied to such Lender’s LIBOR Loans shall be applied instead to its Base Rate Loans; and

(ii) all Loans that would otherwise be made or continued from one Interest Period to another by such Lender as LIBOR Loans shall be made or continued instead as Base Rate Loans, and all Base Rate Loans of such Lender that would otherwise be converted into LIBOR Loans shall remain as Base Rate Loans.

(d) If any Lender gives notice to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) that the circumstances specified in Section 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 or 3.04 hereof that gave rise to the conversion of such Lender’s LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 3.06 no longer exist (which such Lender agrees to do promptly upon such circumstances ceasing to exist) at a time when LIBOR Loans made by other Lenders are outstanding, such Lender’s Base Rate Loans shall be automatically converted, on the first day(s) of the next succeeding Interest Period(s) for such outstanding LIBOR Loans, to the extent necessary so that, after giving effect thereto, all Loans held by the Lenders holding LIBOR Loans and by such Lender are held pro rata (as to principal amounts, interest rate basis, and Interest Periods) in accordance with their respective Commitments.

SECTION 3.07. Replacement of Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) If at any time (i) any Lender requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 3.01 or 3.04 as a result of any condition described in such Sections or any Lender ceases to make LIBOR Loans as a result of any condition described in Section 3.02 or Section 3.04, (ii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or (iii) any Lender becomes a Non-Consenting Lender, then the Borrower may, on ten (10) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, replace such Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.07(b) (with the assignment fee to be paid, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) only, by the Borrower) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, with respect to clause (iii) above, all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, waiver or amendment) to one or more Eligible Assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender or other such Person; and provided further that in the case of any such assignment resulting

 

-89-


from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable Eligible Assignees shall have agreed to the applicable departure, waiver or amendment of the Loan Documents. No such replacement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. In connection with any removal of a Non-Consenting Lender in connection with a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower will also pay such Lender the fee required pursuant to Section 2.17, if applicable.

(b) Any Lender being replaced pursuant to Section 3.07(a) above shall (i) execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, and (ii) deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or Administrative Agent. Pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, (A) the assignee Lender shall acquire all or a portion, as the case may be, of the assigning Lender’s Commitment and outstanding Loans, (B) all obligations of the Borrower owing to the assigning Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such assigning Lender concurrently with such assignment and assumption and (C) upon such payment and, if so requested by the assignee Lender, delivery to the assignee Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the assignee Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the assigning Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder with respect to such assigned Loans, Commitments and participations, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement, which shall survive as to such assigning Lender.

(c) [Reserved].

(d) In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent has requested that the Lenders consent to a departure, amendment or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or agree to any amendment thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or amendment in question requires the agreement of all affected Lenders in accordance with the terms of Section 10.01 or all the Lenders with respect to a certain Class of Loans and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or amendment, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or amendment shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.”

SECTION 3.08. Survival. All of the Borrower’s obligations under this Article III shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations hereunder.

ARTICLE IX

Administrative Agent and Other Agents

SECTION 9.01. Appointment and Authorization of Agents.

(a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints, designates and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article IX (other than Section 9.09) are solely for the benefit of the Agent-Related Persons and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as third party beneficiary of any such provision. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Administrative Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender or participant, 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 the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” herein and in the other Loan Documents with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except as expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents; provided, that if any provision of any Loan Document requires the Administrative Agent to exercise discretion with respect to any proposed procedures, amendment, notices, forms, documents, provisions, exclusions, arrangements, actions or other items (any of the foregoing, the “Subject Items”), then the Administrative Agent shall either (x) otherwise make a determination as to whether it is satisfied with, or consents to, approves of or shall take action with respect to, the Subject Items, or (y) post the Subject Items to the Lenders and act in accordance with the direction of the Required Lenders, provided, that if the Administrative Agent has not received an objection to the Subject Items in writing from the Required Lenders within ten (10) Business Days of such posting, such Subject Items shall be deemed approved by the Required Lenders; provided, further, however, notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.01(b) to the contrary, if any such Subject Item (i) requires a determination by the Administrative Agent that the form of a document (but not the substance) is satisfactory or (ii) requires a determination by the Administrative Agent of an administrative nature, including but not limited to determinations regarding calculation and administration of payments, then the Administrative Agent shall make such determinations without the approval of the Required Lenders.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender and a potential Hedge Bank) hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of (and to hold any security interest created by the Collateral Documents for and on behalf of or on trust for) such Lender for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral granted by any of the Loan Parties to secure any of the Obligations, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” (and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.02 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX (including Section 9.07, as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Lenders hereby expressly authorize the Agents to execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Collateral Documents and acknowledge and agree that any such action by any Agent shall bind the Lenders. The Lenders and other Secured Parties also hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement contemplated by Section 7.01 on behalf of the Secured Parties and to comply with the terms thereof.

SECTION 9.02. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents or of exercising any rights and remedies thereunder) by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact, such sub-agents as shall be deemed necessary by the Administrative Agent and shall be entitled to advice of counsel and other consultants or experts concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or sub-agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined in the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

SECTION 9.03. Liability of Agents. No Agent-Related Person shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with its duties expressly set forth herein), (b) be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken pursuant to Section 9.01(b)(i) or (ii)(y) or (c) be responsible in any manner to any Lender or participant for any recital,

 

-137-


statement, representation or warranty made by any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any officer thereof, contained herein or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of any Loan Party or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender or participant 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 or any Affiliate thereof.

SECTION 9.04. Reliance by Agents.

(a) Each Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, communication, signature, resolution, representation, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, electronic mail message, statement 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 counsel to any Loan Party), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Agent. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be expressly required hereby in any instance) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders; provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or in the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law.

(b) For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in Section 4.01, each Lender that has signed this Agreement shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with, each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to a Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from such Lender prior to the proposed Closing Date specifying its objection thereto.

SECTION 9.05. Notice of Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest and fees required to be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders, unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Administrative Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Administrative Agent shall take such action with respect to any Event of Default as may be directed by the Required Lenders in

 

-138-


accordance with Article VIII; provided that unless and until the Administrative Agent has received any such direction, the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Event of Default as it shall deem advisable or in the best interest of the Lenders.

SECTION 9.06. Credit Decision; Disclosure of Information by Agents. Each Lender acknowledges that no Agent-Related Person has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any consent to and acceptance of any assignment or review of the affairs of any Loan Party or any Affiliate thereof, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender as to any matter, including whether Agent-Related Persons have disclosed material information in their possession. Each Lender represents to each Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their respective Subsidiaries, and all applicable bank or other regulatory Laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower and the other Loan Parties hereunder. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person 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 investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Borrower and the other Loan Parties. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent herein, such Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates which may come into the possession of any Agent-Related Person.

SECTION 9.07. Indemnification of Agents. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand each Agent-Related Person (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of any Loan Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), pro rata, and hold harmless each Agent-Related Person from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities incurred by it; provided that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such Indemnified Liabilities resulting from such Agent-Related Person’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by the final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that no action taken in accordance with the directions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be required by the Loan Documents) shall be deemed to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct for purposes of this Section 9.07. In the case of any investigation, litigation or proceeding giving rise to any Indemnified Liabilities, this Section 9.07 applies whether any such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Lender or any other Person. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse the Administrative Agent upon demand for its ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection

 

-139-


with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower, provided that such reimbursement by the Lenders shall not affect the Borrower’s continuing reimbursement obligations with respect thereto. The undertaking in this Section 9.07 shall survive termination of the Aggregate Commitments, the payment of all other Obligations and the resignation of the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.08. Agents in their Individual Capacities. Each Agent and its respective Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Equity Interests in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with each of the Loan Parties, the Guarantors and their respective Affiliates as though such Agent were not an Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, each Agent or its respective Affiliates may receive information regarding any Loan Party, any Guarantor or any of their Affiliates (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of such Loan Party, such Guarantor or such Affiliate) and acknowledge that the Agents shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and may exercise such rights and powers as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include each Agent in its individual capacity.

SECTION 9.09. Resignation of Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign as the Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be consented to by the Borrower at all times other than during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) (which consent of the Borrower shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with the Lenders and the Borrower, a successor agent, which may be but is not required to be a Lender, and if such successor agent is not a Lender, shall be consented to by the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) except that during the existence of an Event of Default under Section 8.01(f) the consent of the Borrower shall not be required. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, the Person acting as such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent,” shall mean such successor administrative agent and/or supplemental administrative agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as the Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days following the retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s

 

-140-


resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall 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. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor and upon the execution and filing or recording of such financing statements, or amendments thereto, and such amendments or supplements to the Mortgages, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or desirable, or as the Required Lenders may request, in order to (a) continue the perfection of the Liens granted or purported to be granted by the Collateral Documents or (b) otherwise ensure that the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement is satisfied, the Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, discretion, privileges, and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under the Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.09). After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article IX and Sections 10.04 and 10.05 shall continue in effect for its benefit in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was acting as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.10. Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Agents and their respective agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.09 and 10.04.

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

 

-141-


SECTION 9.11. Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably agree:

(a) that any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document shall be automatically released (i) upon termination of the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), the expiration or termination of any other obligation (including a guarantee that is contingent in nature), (ii) at the time the property subject to such Lien is transferred or to be transferred as part of or in connection with any transfer permitted hereunder or under any other Loan Document to any Person other than Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Domestic Subsidiaries that are Restricted Subsidiaries, (iii) subject to Section 10.01, if the release of such Lien is approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders or (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Guarantor, upon release of such Guarantor from its obligations under its Guaranty pursuant to clause (c) below;

(b) to release or subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.01(i);

(c) that any Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations under the Guaranty if in the case of any Subsidiary, such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction or designation permitted hereunder; provided that no such release shall occur if such Guarantor continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes or any Permitted Additional Debt incurred pursuant to the proviso of the first sentence in Section 7.03 or pursuant to Section 7.03(x); and

(d) at the Borrower’s election, if any Guarantor shall cease to be a Material Subsidiary (as certified in writing by a Responsible Officer), (i) such Subsidiary shall be automatically released from its obligations under any Guaranty and (ii) any Liens granted by such Subsidiary or Liens on the Equity Interests of such Subsidiary shall be automatically released; provided that in each case no such release shall occur if (A) such Subsidiary continues to be a guarantor in respect of the Senior Notes or any Permitted Additional Debt incurred pursuant to the proviso of the first sentence in Section 7.03 or pursuant to Section 7.03(x) or (B) after giving effect to such release, the Permitted Non-Guarantor Investment Condition would not be satisfied.

Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty pursuant to this Section 9.11. In each case as specified in this Section 9.11, the Administrative Agent will promptly (and each Lender irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to), at the Borrower’s expense, execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release or subordination of such item of Collateral from the assignment and security interest granted under the Collateral Documents, or to evidence the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section 9.11.

 

-142-


SECTION 9.12. Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent,” “co-documentation agent”, “joint book runner”, “joint lead arranger” or the Amendment No. 1 Arranger shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 9.13. Appointment of Supplemental Administrative Agents.

(a) It is the intent of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that there shall be no violation of any Law of any jurisdiction denying or restricting the right of banking corporations or associations to transact business as agent or trustee in such jurisdiction. It is recognized that in case of litigation under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, and in particular in case of the enforcement of any of the Loan Documents, or in case the Administrative Agent deems that by reason of any present or future Law of any jurisdiction it may not exercise any of the rights, powers or remedies granted herein or in any of the other Loan Documents or take any other action which may be desirable or necessary in connection therewith, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized to appoint an additional individual or institution selected by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion as a separate trustee, co-trustee, administrative agent, collateral agent, administrative sub-agent or administrative co-agent (any such additional individual or institution being referred to herein individually as a “Supplemental Administrative Agent” and collectively as “Supplemental Administrative Agents”).

(b) In the event that the Administrative Agent appoints a Supplemental Administrative Agent with respect to any Collateral, (i) each and every right, power, privilege or duty expressed or intended by this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents to be exercised by or vested in or conveyed to the Administrative Agent with respect to such Collateral shall be exercisable by and vest in such Supplemental Administrative Agent to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to enable such Supplemental Administrative Agent to exercise such rights, powers and privileges with respect to such Collateral and to perform such duties with respect to such Collateral, and every covenant and obligation contained in the Loan Documents and necessary to the exercise or performance thereof by such Supplemental Administrative Agent shall run to and be enforceable by either the Administrative Agent or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, and (ii) the provisions of this Article IX and of Sections 10.04 and 10.05 that refer to the Administrative Agent shall inure to the benefit of such Supplemental Administrative Agent and all references therein to the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to be references to the Administrative Agent and/or such Supplemental Administrative Agent, as the context may require.

 

-143-


(c) Should any instrument in writing from any Loan Party be required by any Supplemental Administrative Agent so appointed by the Administrative Agent for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such rights, powers, privileges and duties, the Borrower or Holdings, as applicable, shall, or shall cause such Loan Party to, execute, acknowledge and deliver any and all such instruments promptly upon request by the Administrative Agent. In case any Supplemental Administrative Agent, or a successor thereto, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of such Supplemental Administrative Agent, to the extent permitted by Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until the appointment of a new Supplemental Administrative Agent.

SECTION 9.14. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable Laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting or expanding the provisions of Section 3.01, each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against, and shall make payable in respect thereof within 10 days after demand therefor, any and all Taxes and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities and expenses (including fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent) incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by the IRS or any other Governmental Authority as a result of the failure of the Administrative Agent to properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of such Lender for any reason (including, without limitation, because the appropriate form was not delivered or not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of withholding Tax ineffective). A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.14. The agreements in this Section 9.14 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations.

ARTICLE X

Miscellaneous

SECTION 10.01. Amendments, Etc. Except as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no amendment, modification, supplement or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower or any other Loan Party therefrom, shall be effective unless in writing signed by the Required Lenders and the Borrower or the applicable Loan Party, as the case may be, and acknowledged by the Administrative Agent, and each such waiver, amendment, modification, supplement or

 

-144-


consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, no such amendment, modification, supplement, waiver or consent shall:

(a) extend or increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not constitute an extension or increase of any Commitment of any Lender);

(b) postpone any date scheduled for, or reduce the amount of, any payment of principal or interest under Section 2.07 or 2.08 without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that the waiver of (or amendment to the terms of) any mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall not constitute a postponement of any date scheduled for the payment of principal or interest;

(c) reduce the principal of, or the rate of interest specified herein on, any Loan or (subject to clause (iii) of the second proviso to this Section 10.01 below) any fees or other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, it being understood that any change to the definition of Senior Secured Leverage Ratio or, in each case, in the component definitions thereof shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest; provided that, only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate” or to waive any obligation of the Borrower to pay interest at the Default Rate;

(d) change any provision of this Section 10.01, the definition of “Required Lenders” or “Pro Rata Share” or Section 2.05(b)(v)(Y), 2.06(c) or 2.13 or without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby;

(e) without the written consent of each Lender, release all or substantially all of the Collateral in any transaction or series of related transactions other than in a transaction permitted under Section 7.04 or Section 7.05;

and provided further that (i) no amendment, waiver or consent shall, unless in writing and signed by the Administrative Agent in addition to the Lenders required above, affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; (ii) Section 10.07(h) may not be amended, waived or otherwise modified without the consent of each Granting Lender all or any part of whose Loans are being funded by an SPC at the time of such amendment, waiver or other modification; and (iii) the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of any Class of Commitments shall be required with respect to any amendment that by its terms adversely affects the rights of such Class in respect of payments hereunder in a manner different than such amendment affects other Classes. Any such

 

-145-


waiver and any such amendment, modification or supplement in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.01 shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding on the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans and Commitments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that any Commitments or Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (a) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Term Loans (including as to right of priority of payments under Section 8.03) and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) pursuant to an Additional Credit Extension Amendment to permit the refinancing of all outstanding Term Loans of any Class (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with replacement term loans (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder; provided that (a) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (b) the Applicable Rate with respect to such Replacement Term Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Replacement Term Loans) shall not be higher than the Applicable Rate for such Refinanced Term Loans (or similar interest rate spread applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans) immediately prior to such refinancing, (c) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the Term Loans), (d) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than, those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of the Term Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing and (e) except to the extent otherwise provided in the applicable Additional Credit Extension Amendment, to the extent that a Replacement Term Loan refinances a Refinanced Term Loan held by the maker of such Replacement Term Loan, such Replacement Term Loan shall be deemed to be a modification of such Refinanced Term Loan on the terms of such Replacement Term Loan and not a new or separate indebtedness.

In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, the consent of a Lender to an amendment (or amendment and restatement) of this Agreement shall not be required if, upon giving effect to such amendment (or amendment and restatement) immediately upon the initial extensions

 

-146-


of credit thereunder, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended or amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment or amendment and restatement), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.01, (a) guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents executed by Subsidiaries in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with this Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need to obtain the consent of any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order (i) to comply with local Law or advice of local counsel, (ii) to cure ambiguities or defects or (iii) to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (b) the Administrative Agent is authorized to enter into the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) in connection with the issuance of any Indebtedness by the Loan Parties secured by a Lien pursuant to Section 7.01(aa).

SECTION 10.02. Notices and Other Communications; Facsimile Copies.

(c) Reliance by Agents and Lenders. The Agent-Related Persons and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices and Committed Loan Notices) reasonably believed by them to have been given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent-Related Person and each Lender from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct. All telephonic notices to the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

(d) The Platform. THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT-RELATED PERSONS DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Agent-Related Persons have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of the Borrower’s or the Administrative Agent’s transmission of Borrower Materials or notices through the Platform, any other electronic platform or electronic messaging service, or through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent-Related Person or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent, trustee or advisors of such Agent-Related Person or (y) a material breach of any obligations under this Agreement by such Agent-Related Person or of any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent, trustee or advisors of such Agent-Related Person; provided, however, that in no event shall any Agent-Related Person have any liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other Person for indirect, special, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages).

SECTION 10.03. No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure by any Lender or the Administrative Agent to exercise, and no delay by any such Person in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each other Loan Document, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by Law.

SECTION 10.04. Attorney Costs and Expenses. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or reimburse the Agents for all reasonable and documented out of pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the preparation, negotiation, syndication and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any amendment, waiver, consent or other modification of the provisions hereof and thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated thereby are consummated), and the consummation and administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including all Attorney Costs of Cahill Gordon & Reindel LLP and Duane Morris LLP, and (b) to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights or remedies under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (including all such costs and expenses incurred during any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law, and including all Attorney Costs of counsel to the Administrative Agent). The agreements in this Section 10.04 shall survive the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and repayment of all other Obligations. All amounts due under this Section 10.04 shall be paid promptly following receipt by the Borrower of an invoice relating thereto setting forth such expenses in reasonable detail. If any Loan Party fails to pay when due any costs, expenses or other amounts payable by it hereunder or under any Loan Document, such amount may be paid on behalf of such Loan Party by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion.

SECTION 10.05. Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Lender, the Arrangers, the Co-Documentation Agents, the Amendment No. 1 Arranger and their respective Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, members, employees, agents, trustees and advisors (collectively the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements (including Attorney Costs) of any kind or nature whatsoever which may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any such Indemnitee in any way relating to or arising out of or in connection with (a) in the case of the Agents and their respective Affiliates, partners, directors, officers, members, employees, agents, trustees and advisors, their activities in connection with the initial marketing and syndication of the Term B-1 Loans and Term B-2 Loans, (b) the negotiation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of any Loan Document or any other agreement, letter or instrument delivered in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Administrative

Agent’s performance of duties under Section 2.11, (c) any Commitment or Loan or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom, (d) any actual or alleged presence or Release or threatened Release of Hazardous Materials on, at, under or from any property currently or formerly owned or operated by the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, or any Environmental Liability relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any other Loan Party, (e) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory (including any investigation of, preparation for, or defense of any pending or threatened claim, investigation, litigation or proceeding) and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (all the foregoing, collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”); provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, demands, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulted from (x) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or of any of its Related Indemnitees or (y) a breach of any material obligations under any Loan Document by such Indemnitee or of any of its Related Indemnitees, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of any information or other materials obtained through IntraLinks or other similar information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement, nor shall any Indemnitee or any Loan Party (except, with respect to any Loan Party, as a result of its indemnification obligations hereunder) have any liability for any special, punitive, indirect or consequential damages relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or arising out of its activities in connection herewith or therewith (whether before or after the Closing Date). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this Section 10.05 applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by any Loan Party, its directors, stockholders or creditors or an Indemnitee or any other Person, whether or not any Indemnitee is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not any of the transactions contemplated hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents is consummated. All amounts due under this Section 10.05 shall be paid within 20 Business Days after written demand therefor. The agreements in this Section 10.05 shall survive the resignation of the Administrative Agent, the replacement of any Lender, the termination of the Aggregate Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the other Obligations.

SECTION 10.06. Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to any Agent or any Lender, or any Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by such Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share of any amount so recovered from or repaid by any Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds Rate from time to time in effect.

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that neither Holdings nor the Borrower may, except as permitted by Section 7.04, assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an Eligible Assignee, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(e), (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of Section 10.07(g) or (iv) to an SPC in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.07(h) (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void).

(A) the Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required (1) for an assignment of Term Loans to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or (2) if an Event of Default under Section 8.01(a) or, solely with respect to the Borrower, Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing, for any assignment to any Assignee;

(B) the Administrative Agent; provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent shall be required for an assignment of all or any portion of a Term Loan to another Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund;

-151-


under Section 8.01(a) or, solely with respect to the Borrower, Section 8.01(f) has occurred and is continuing and (2) concurrent assignments to members of an Assignee Group and concurrent assignments from members of an Assignee Group to a single Eligible Assignee (or to an Eligible Assignee and members of its Assignee Group) will be treated as a single assignment for purposes of determining whether such minimum amount has been met;

(B) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption;

(C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

(D) the Assignee shall comply with Section 3.01(b) and (c) or Section 3.01(e), as applicable;

(E) no such assignment shall be made (A) to Holdings, the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries except as permitted under Section 2.05(a)(v), (B) other than in accordance with subsection (k) below, to any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or (C) to a natural person; and

This paragraph (b) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among separate Facilities on a non-pro rata basis.

(c) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.07(d) (and, in the case of an assignment by or to an Affiliated Lender, recordation in the Affiliated Lender Register in accordance with Section 10.07(n)), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01, 3.04, 3.05, 10.04 and 10.05 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause (c) shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 10.07(e).

 

-152-


(d) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be presumed correct, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Agent and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.01 that directly affects such Participant. Subject to Section 10.07(f), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.01 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements of Section 3.01(c)), 3.04 and 3.05 (through the applicable Lender) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.07(c). To the extent permitted by applicable Law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.09 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register complying with the requirements of Sections 163(f), 871(h) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and the Treasury regulations issued thereunder relating to the exemption from withholding for portfolio interest on which is entered the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment,

 

-153-


Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury regulations. Unless otherwise required by the IRS, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. Entries in the Participant Register shall be presumed correct, absent manifest error and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

(f) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or such entitlement to a greater payment results from a change in Law after the sale of the participation takes place.

(g) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “SPC”) the option to provide all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPC to fund any Loan, (ii) if an SPC elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to make all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof and (iii) such SPC shall be appropriately reflected in the Participant Register. Each party hereto hereby agrees that (i) each SPC shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.01 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements of Sections 3.01(c), 3.04 and 3.05 (through the Granting Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section 10.07, (ii) neither the grant to any SPC nor the exercise by any SPC of such option shall increase the costs or expenses or otherwise increase or change the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement (including its obligations under Sections 3.01, 3.04 or 3.05) unless such increase or change results from a change in Law after the SPC becomes a SPC, (iii) no SPC shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement for which a Lender would be liable, and (iv) the Granting Lender shall for all purposes, including the approval of any amendment, waiver or other modification of any provision of any Loan Document, remain the lender of record hereunder. The making of a Loan by an SPC hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

 

-154-


herein, any SPC may (i) with notice to, but without prior consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, assign all or any portion of its right to receive payment with respect to any Loan to the Granting Lender and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its funding of Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety or Guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPC.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (1) any Lender may in accordance with applicable Law create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it and (2) any Lender that is a Fund may create a security interest in all or any portion of the Loans owing to it and the Note, if any, held by it to the trustee for holders of obligations owed, or securities issued, by such Fund as security for such obligations or securities; provided that unless and until such trustee actually becomes a Lender in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 10.07, (i) no such pledge shall release the pledging Lender from any of its obligations under the Loan Documents and (ii) such trustee shall not be entitled to exercise any of the rights of a Lender under the Loan Documents even though such trustee may have acquired ownership rights with respect to the pledged interest through foreclosure or otherwise.

(j) [Reserved].

 

-155-


(k) Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to a Person who is or will become, after such assignment, an Affiliated Lender and any Affiliated Lender may assign Term Loans, subject to the following limitations:

(i) Affiliated Lenders will not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent or any Lender and will not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Term Loans or Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II;

(ii) each Affiliated Lender (other than a Debt Fund Affiliate) that (A) purchases any Loans pursuant to this clause (k) shall represent and warrant to the seller and (B) sells any Loan hereunder shall represent and warrant to the buyer, in each case, that it does not possess material non-public information with respect to Holdings and its Subsidiaries (or other information that may be material to a decision by any Lender to participate in such assignment) or the securities of any of them that has not been disclosed to the Lenders generally (other than Lenders who elect not to receive such information);

(iii) the Borrower shall have consented to such assignment; provided that in no event shall the Borrower consent to any assignment to any Affiliate if the conditions set forth in clause (ii) or (iv) of this clause (k) are not satisfied prior to and immediately after giving effect to such assignment;

(iv) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans held at any one time by Affiliated Lenders (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) may not exceed 20% of the original principal amount of all Term Loans at such time outstanding;

(v) [reserved]; and

(vi) in addition to the requirements of clause (c) above, such assignment shall only become effective upon being recorded in the Affiliated Lender Register as provided in clause (n) below.

(l) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.01 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or subject to Section 10.07(m), any plan of reorganization pursuant to the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, no Affiliated Lender (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) shall have any right to consent (or not consent), otherwise act or direct or require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to take (or refrain from taking) any such action and:

(A) all Loans held by any Affiliated Lenders (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any action;

 

-156-


(B) all Loans held by Affiliated Lenders (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating whether all Lenders have taken any action unless the action in question affects such Affiliated Lender in a disproportionately adverse manner than its effect on other Lenders; and

(C) all Loans held by Debt Fund Affiliates shall be deemed to be not outstanding to the extent such Loans would account for more than 50% of the amount of Loans and Commitments included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or consented to any action (it being understood that such excess amount of Loans and Commitments shall be deemed not to be outstanding on a pro rata basis among all Debt Fund Affiliates in accordance with the respective amounts of such Loans and Commitments held by them).

(m) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents to the contrary, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law (i) each Affiliated Lender (other than any Debt Fund Affiliate) hereby agrees that, if a proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law shall be commenced by or against the Borrower or any other Loan Party at a time when such Lender is an Affiliated Lender, such Affiliated Lender irrevocably authorizes and empowers the Administrative Agent to vote on behalf of such Affiliated Lender with respect to the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender in any manner in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, unless the Administrative Agent instructs such Affiliated Lender to vote, in which case such Affiliated Lender shall vote with respect to the Loans held by it as the Administrative Agent directs; provided that such Affiliated Lender shall be entitled to vote in accordance with its sole discretion (and not in accordance with the direction of the Administrative Agent) in connection with any plan of reorganization to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat any Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrower and (ii) no Affiliated Lender (other than a Debt Fund Affiliate) may bring any action or make any claim against any Agent hereunder.

(n) The Borrower shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it by any Affiliated Lender and each other notification from an Affiliated Lender referred to below (the “Affiliated Lender Register”). Each Affiliated Lender shall advise the Borrower and the Administrative in writing of (i) any proposed acquisition or disposition of Term Loans by such Affiliated Lender, (ii) any prepayment of such Lender’s Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(a)(v) and (iii) whether such Lender is a Debt Fund Affiliate. The Borrower shall advise the Administrative Agent (in the same manner specified by Schedule 10.02 for non-borrowing notices) in writing of any proposed assignment to any Affiliated Lender at least three Business Days prior to the time such assignment is scheduled to occur unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified thereof by the Affiliated Lender. Additionally, if any Lender becomes an Affiliated Lender at a time that such Lender holds any Term Loans, such Lender shall promptly advise the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Lender is an Affiliated Lender. Copies of the Affiliated Lender Register shall be provided to the

 

-157-


Administrative Agent and the Affiliated Lenders upon request. Notwithstanding the foregoing if at any time (if applicable, after giving effect to any proposed assignment to an Affiliated Lender), all Affiliated Lenders (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) own or would, in the aggregate own more than 20% of the principal amount of all then outstanding Term Loans (i) any proposed pending assignment to an Affiliated Lender that is not a Debt Fund Affiliate that would cause such threshold to be exceeded shall not become effective or be recorded in the Affiliated Lender Register, (ii) in the event that an Affiliated Lender that is not a Debt Fund Affiliate has acquired any Term Loans pursuant to an assignment which was not recorded in the Affiliated Lender Register, the assignment of such Term Loans shall be null and void ab initio and (iii) if such threshold is exceeded solely as a result of a Lender becoming an Affiliated Lender after it has acquired Term Loans, such Affiliated Lender shall assign sufficient Term Loans so that Affiliated Lenders that are not Debt Fund Affiliates in the aggregate own less than 20% of the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans then outstanding. The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon the Affiliated Lender Register in connection with any amendment or waiver hereunder and shall not have any responsibility for monitoring any acquisition or disposition of Term Loans by any Affiliated Lender or for any losses suffered by any Person as a result of any purported assignment to or from an Affiliated Lender.

SECTION 10.08. Confidentiality. Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information and to not use or disclose such information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, members, partners, employees, trustees, investment advisors and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any Governmental Authority; (c) to the extent required by applicable Laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section 10.08 (at least as restrictive than those in this Section 10.08 or as may otherwise be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower), to any pledgee referred to in Section 10.07(g), counterparty to a Swap Contract, Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective Eligible Assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement; (f) with the written consent of the Borrower; (g) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08 by such Agent or Lender; (h) to any Governmental Authority or examiner (including the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any other similar organization) regulating or purporting to regulate any Agent or Lender; (i) on a confidential basis to any rating agency when requested by it; or (j) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder. In addition, the Agents and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry, and service providers to the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit Extensions. For the purposes of this Section 10.08, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party or its Affiliates or its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees, trustees, investment

advisors or agents, relating to Holdings, the Borrower or any of their subsidiaries or its business, other than any such information that is publicly available to any Agent or any Lender prior to disclosure by any Loan Party other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.08; provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential or (ii) is delivered pursuant to Section 6.01, 6.02 or 6.03 hereof.

SECTION 10.09. Setoff. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender or its Affiliates shall have a right to set off and apply any deposits held or other Indebtedness owing by such Lender or its Affiliates to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary of a Loan Party which is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code unless such Subsidiary is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of Holdings. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent, each Lender under this Section 10.09 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, such Lender may have. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, each Lender expressly waives its right of setoff pursuant to this Section 10.09 or any other provision of any Loan Document with respect to deposit accounts in which have been deposited payments received under Medicare, Medicaid, TRICARE and other health care programs of the United States or any state (including the District of Columbia) thereof and any agency or other Governmental Authority thereof.

SECTION 10.10. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the amount collectible at the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If any Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by an Agent or a Lender exceeds the amount collectible at the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

SECTION 10.11. Counterparts. This Agreement and each other Loan Document may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier.

SECTION 10.12. Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter.

SECTION 10.13. Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

SECTION 10.14. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

GUARANTY

SECTION 12.01. Guaranty. Each Guarantor irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guaranties, jointly with the other Guarantors and severally, the due and punctual payment of the Obligations, in each case, whether such Obligations are now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of any Loan Document whether at stated maturity or earlier, by reason of acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise in accordance herewith or with any other Loan Documents. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that the Obligations may be extended, increased or renewed, in whole or in part, without notice to or further assent from it, and that it will remain bound upon its guaranty notwithstanding any extension, increase or renewal, in whole or in part, of any Obligation. Each of the Guarantors waives presentment to, demand of payment from and protest to any Guaranty Party of any of the Obligations, and also waives notice of acceptance of its guaranty and notice of protest for nonpayment.

SECTION 12.02. Guaranty of Payment. Each of the Guarantors further agrees that its guaranty hereunder constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection, and waives any right to require that any resort be had by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to any security held for the payment of the Obligations, or to any balance of any deposit account or credit on the books of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party in favor of the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 12.03. No Limitations.

 

(a)

Except for termination of a Guarantor’s obligations hereunder as expressly provided in Section 4.09, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason, including any claim of waiver, release, surrender, alteration or compromise, and shall not be subject to any defense or set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the Obligations, or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall not be discharged

 

2


  or impaired or otherwise affected by (i) the failure of the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Loan Document or otherwise; (ii) any rescission, waiver, amendment or modification of, or any release from any of the terms or provisions of, any Loan Document or any other agreement, including with respect to any other Guarantor under this Agreement; (iii) the release of any security held by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party for the Obligations; (iv) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance of the Obligations; or (v) any other act or omission that may or might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of any Guarantor or otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations). Each Guarantor expressly authorizes the Secured Parties to take and hold security for the payment of the Obligations, to exchange, waive or release any or all such security (with or without consideration), to enforce or apply such security and direct the order and manner of any sale thereof in their sole discretion or to release or substitute any one or more other guarantors or obligors upon or in respect of the Obligations, all in accordance with the Security Agreement and other Loan Documents and all without affecting the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder.

 

(b) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Guaranty Party or the unenforceability of the Obligations, or any part thereof from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Guaranty Party, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of all the Obligations. The Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties may, in accordance with the terms of the Collateral Documents and at their election, foreclose on any security held by one or more of them by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such security in lieu of foreclosure, compromise or adjust any part of the Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Guaranty Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to them against any Guaranty Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of any Guarantor hereunder except to the extent the Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in full in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though such election operates, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or to extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of such Guarantor against any Guaranty Party, as the case may be, or any security.

SECTION 12.04. Reinstatement. Each of the Guarantors agrees that its guaranty hereunder shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, or any part thereof, of any Obligation, is rescinded, invalidated or must otherwise be restored by the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party upon the bankruptcy or reorganization of any Guaranty Party or otherwise.

SECTION 12.05. Agreement To Pay; Subrogation. In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation of any other right that the Administrative Agent or any other Secured Party has at law or in equity against any Guarantor by virtue hereof, upon the failure of any Guaranty Party to pay any Obligation when and as the same shall become due, whether at maturity,

 

3


by acceleration, after notice of prepayment or otherwise, each Guarantor hereby promises to and will forthwith pay, or cause to be paid, to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Secured Parties in cash the amount of such unpaid Obligation. Upon payment by any Guarantor of any sums to the Administrative Agent as provided above, all rights of such Guarantor against any Guaranty Party arising as a result thereof by way of right of subrogation, contribution, reimbursement, indemnity or otherwise shall in all respects be subject to Article III herein.

SECTION 12.06. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Guaranty Party’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations, and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that such Guarantor assumes and incurs hereunder, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent or the other Secured Parties will have any duty to advise such Guarantor of information known to it or any of them regarding such circumstances or risks.

ARTICLE XIII

INDEMNITY, SUBROGATION AND SUBORDINATION

SECTION 13.01. Indemnity and Subrogation. In addition to all such rights of indemnity and subrogation as the Guarantors may have under applicable law (but subject to Section 3.03), the Borrower agrees that in the event a payment of an obligation shall be made by any Guarantor under this Agreement, the Borrower shall indemnify such Guarantor for the full amount of such payment and such Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Person to whom such payment shall have been made to the extent of such payment.

SECTION 13.02. Contribution and Subrogation. Each Guarantor (a “Contributing Party”) agrees (subject to Section 3.03) that, in the event a payment shall be made by any other Guarantor hereunder in respect of any Obligation and such other Guarantor (the “Claiming Party”) shall not have been fully indemnified by the Borrower as provided in Section 3.01, the Contributing Party shall indemnify the Claiming Party in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, in each case multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the net worth of the Contributing Party on the date hereof and the denominator shall be the aggregate net worth of all the Contributing Parties together with the net worth of the Claiming Party on the date hereof (or, in the case of any Guarantor becoming a party hereto pursuant to Section 4.10, the date of the Guaranty Supplement hereto executed and delivered by such Guarantor). Any Contributing Party making any payment to a Claiming Party pursuant to this Section 3.02 shall be subrogated to the rights of such Claiming Party to the extent of such payment. Each Guarantor recognizes and acknowledges that the rights to contribution arising hereunder shall constitute an asset in favor of the party entitled to such contribution. In this connection, each Guarantor has the right to waive, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, its contribution right against any other Guarantor to the extent that after giving effect to such waiver such Guarantor would remain solvent, in the determination of the Lenders.

SECTION 13.03. Subordination. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all rights of the Guarantors under Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and all other

 

4


rights of indemnity, contribution or subrogation under applicable law or otherwise shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations; provided that if any amount shall be paid to such Guarantor on account of such subrogation rights at any time prior to the irrevocable payment in full of the Obligations, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent to be credited and applied against the Obligations, whether matured or unmatured, in connection with Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement. No failure on the part of the Borrower or any Guarantor to make the payments required by Sections 3.01 and 3.02 (or any other payments required under applicable law or otherwise) shall in any respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor with respect to its obligations hereunder, and each Guarantor shall remain liable for the full amount of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder.

ARTICLE XIV

MISCELLANEOUS

SECTION 14.01. Notices. All communications and notices hereunder shall (except as otherwise expressly permitted herein) be in writing and given as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement. All communications and notices hereunder to any Guarantor shall be given to it in care of the Borrower as provided in Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 14.02. Waivers; Amendment.

 

(a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Guaranty Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 4.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on any Guaranty Party in any case shall entitle any Guaranty Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

 

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Guaranty Party or Guaranty Parties with respect to which such waiver, amendment or modification is to apply, subject to any consent required in accordance with Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 14.03. Counterparts; Effectiveness; Successors and Assigns; Several Agreement. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery by telecopier or electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. The Agents may also require that any such documents and signatures delivered by telecopier or electronic transmission be confirmed by a manually signed original thereof; provided that the failure to request or deliver the same shall not limit the effectiveness of any document or signature delivered by telecopier or electronic transmission. This Agreement shall become effective as to any Guaranty Party when a counterpart hereof executed on behalf of such Guaranty Party shall have been delivered to the Administrative Agent and a counterpart hereof shall have been executed on behalf of the Administrative Agent, and thereafter shall be binding upon such Guaranty Party and the Administrative Agent and their respective successors and assigns permitted thereby, and shall inure to the benefit of such Guaranty Party, the Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties and their respective successors and assigns permitted thereby, except that no Guaranty Party shall have the right to assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or any interest herein (and any such assignment or transfer shall be void) except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents. This Agreement shall be construed as a separate agreement with respect to each Guaranty Party and may be amended, modified, supplemented, waived or released with respect to any Guaranty Party without the approval of any other Guaranty Party and without affecting the obligations of any other Guaranty Party hereunder.

SECTION 14.04. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 14.05. Right of Set-Off. In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by Law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender and its Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by the Borrower (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party and its Subsidiaries) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other Indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender and its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender and its Affiliates hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether such Agent or such Lender or Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or denominated in a currency different from that of the applicable deposit or Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Lender or its Affiliates shall have a right to set off and apply any deposits held or other Indebtedness owing by such Lender or its Affiliates, as the case may be, to or for the credit or the account of any Subsidiary

 

6


of a Loan Party that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code unless such Subsidiary is not a direct or indirect subsidiary of Holdings. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application. The rights of the Administrative Agent and each Lender under this Section 4.05 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that the Administrative Agent and such Lender may have.

SECTION 14.06. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

 

(a) The terms of Section 10.15 and 10.16 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

 

(b) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 4.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 14.07. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 14.08. Guaranty Absolute. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, all rights of the Administrative Agent hereunder and all obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of (a) any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, any agreement with respect to any of the Obligations or any other agreement or instrument relating to any of the foregoing, (b) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument, (c) any exchange, release or non-perfection of any Lien on other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent under or departure from any guaranty securing or guaranteeing all or any of the Obligations or (d) any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Guarantor in respect of the Obligations or this Agreement.

SECTION 14.09. Termination or Release.

 

(a) This Agreement and the Guaranties made herein shall terminate with respect to all Obligations when all the outstanding Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable) have been paid in full and the Lenders have no further commitment to lend under the Credit Agreement.

 

7


(b) A Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder as provided in Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement.

 

(c) In connection with any termination or release pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 4.09, the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver to any Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release, in each case in accordance with the terms of Section 9.11 of the Credit Agreement. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section 4.09 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.

 

(d) At any time that the Borrower desires that the Administrative Agent take any of the actions described in immediately preceding paragraph (c), it shall, upon request of the Administrative Agent, deliver to the Administrative Agent an officer’s certificate certifying that the release of the respective Guarantor is permitted pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b). The Administrative Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any Guarantor as a result of any release of any Guarantor by it as permitted (or that the Administrative Agent in good faith believes to be permitted) by this Section 4.09.

 

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, each Cash Management Bank and each Hedge Bank, by the acceptance of the benefits under this Agreement hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) the obligations of the Borrower or any Subsidiary under any Secured Hedge Agreement and the Cash Management Obligations shall be guaranteed pursuant to this Agreement only to the extent that, and for so long as, the other Obligations are so guaranteed and (ii) any release of a Guarantor effected in the manner permitted by this Agreement shall not require the consent of any Hedge Bank or Cash Management Bank.

SECTION 14.10. Additional Guarantors. Each Wholly Owned Material Subsidiary of the Borrower that is required to enter into this Agreement as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement shall execute and deliver a Guaranty Supplement and thereupon such Wholly Owned Material Subsidiary shall become a Guarantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Guarantor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Guaranty Party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Guaranty Party hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Guaranty Party as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 14.11. Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations. Each Guarantor and each Secured Party (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement) hereby confirms that it is its intention that this Agreement not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of any Debtor Relief Laws (including the Bankruptcy Code, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act or any similar Federal or state law). To effectuate the foregoing intention, each Guarantor and each Secured Party (by its acceptance of the benefits of this Agreement) hereby irrevocably agrees that the Obligations owing by such Guarantor under this Agreement shall be limited to such amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other (contingent or otherwise) liabilities of such Guarantor that are relevant under such Debtor Relief Laws and after

 

8


giving effect to any rights to contribution and/or subrogation pursuant to any agreement providing for an equitable contribution and/or subrogation among such Guarantor and the other Guarantors, result in the Obligations of such Guarantor in respect of such maximum amount not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance.

provided, however, that the foregoing grant of a security interest shall be deemed not to grant a security interest in any of the property described below (such property being hereinafter referred to as “Excluded Property”):

(i) any Collateral or contracts related thereto, but only to the extent that, under applicable Laws, the applicable Obligor is expressly prohibited from granting a security interest therein or applicable Laws provide for the involuntary forfeiture of the property in the event a security interest is granted therein without the consent of the appropriate Governmental Authority, or at all; provided, however, that if such prohibition or the condition requiring such consent relates only to the foreclosure of a security interest or the exercise of other rights and remedies upon a default but not to the granting of a security interest therein, then a security interest in such property shall be deemed to be granted by this Agreement subject to the condition that the consent of such Governmental Authority is obtained by the Administrative Agent prior to foreclosure or exercising its other rights or remedies hereunder as to which such consent is required;

(ii) any contracts or agreements that expressly prohibit the granting of a security interest therein or condition the granting of a security interest therein on the consent of a third party (other than Holdings or any Subsidiary) whose consent has not been obtained or would cause, or allow a third party (other than Holdings or any Subsidiary) to cause, the forfeiture of such property upon the granting of a security interest therein (other than to the extent that any such requirement or restriction would be rendered ineffective pursuant to the UCC or other applicable Law (including Debtor Relief Laws)), provided, however, that if such prohibition or the condition requiring such consent relates only to the foreclosure of a security interest or the exercise of other rights or remedies upon a default, then a security interest in such property shall be deemed to be granted by this Agreement subject to the condition that the consent of such third party is obtained by the Administrative Agent prior to foreclosure or exercising of its other rights or remedies hereunder as to which such consent is required;

(iii) [RESERVED];

(iv) (A) any Equity Interests in Foreign Subsidiaries that do not constitute Subsidiary Equity, (B) any Equity Interests in Unrestricted Subsidiaries, (C) any Equity Interests in a non-wholly owned Subsidiary to the extent the Organization Documents of such Subsidiary prohibit the grant of a security interest therein and (D) any Equity Interests in any Restricted Subsidiary subject to a Lien existing at the time such Restricted Subsidiary is acquired or merged with or into or consolidated with any Obligor, so long as (and only so long as) such Equity Interests are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 7.01(n) of the Credit Agreement;

(v) any letter-of-credit rights except to the extent perfection of a security interest therein may be accomplished by filing of financing statements in appropriate form in the applicable jurisdiction under the UCC;

 

-5-


(vi) any motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title;

(vii) any assets or properties that are acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition (or that are owned by a Subsidiary acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition), so long as (and only so long as) such assets or properties are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 7.01(n) of the Credit Agreement;

(viii) any Intellectual Property whose pledge would result in the forfeiture of the Obligors’ rights in such property including, without limitation, any Trademark applications filed in the USPTO on the basis of such Obligor’s “intent-to-use” such Trademark, unless and until acceptable evidence of use of such Trademark has been filed with the USPTO pursuant to Section 1(c) or Section 1(d) of the Lanham Act (15 U.S.C. 1051, et seq.), to the extent that granting a lien in such Trademark application prior to such filing would adversely affect the enforceability or validity of such Trademark application;

(ix) any asset with respect to which the Borrower has reasonably determined in a writing delivered to the Administrative Agent that providing a security interest in such asset or perfection thereof would result in adverse tax or accounting consequences; and

(x) any asset with respect to which the Administrative Agent and the Borrower have agreed in writing that the costs of providing a security interest in such asset or perfection thereof is excessive in view of the benefits to be obtained by the Secured Parties.

In the event of the termination or elimination of any prohibition or the requirement for any consent contained in any applicable law, rule, regulation, agreement, document or instrument to the extent sufficient to permit any Excluded Property to become Collateral hereunder, or upon the granting of any such consent, or waiving or terminating any requirement for such consent, a security interest in such Excluded Property shall be automatically and simultaneously granted hereunder in such Excluded Property, and the Excluded Property automatically and simultaneously shall be deemed to be assigned and pledged to the Administrative Agent and shall be included as Collateral hereunder.

The Obligors and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, hereby acknowledge and agree that the security interest created hereby in the Collateral (i) constitutes continuing collateral security for all of the Obligations, whether now existing or hereafter arising and (ii) is not to be construed as an assignment of any Intellectual Property.

(a) Legal Names; Organizational Identification Numbers, Jurisdiction and Type of Organization.

(d) Security Interest/Priority. This Agreement, when executed and delivered and upon the making of the initial Credit Extensions, creates a valid security interest in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in the Collateral of such Obligor, and, when properly perfected by filing shall constitute a valid perfected security interest in such Collateral (including all uncertificated Subsidiary Equity consisting of partnership or limited liability company interests that do not constitute a security pursuant to Section 8-103(c) of the UCC), to the extent such security interest can be created and perfected by filing under the UCC, free and clear of all Liens except for Liens permitted pursuant to Section 7.01 of the Credit Agreement. The taking possession by the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent as bailee pursuant to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement or an Obligor as bailee for the benefit of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3(k) hereof of the certificates (if any) representing the Subsidiary Equity that constitutes a security pursuant to Section 8-103 of the UCC and all other Instruments constituting Collateral will perfect under the UCC and establish the first priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in all certificated Subsidiary Equity and such Instruments.

(i) Exercising of Rights.

(j) Obligor’s Authority. No authorization, approval or action by, and no notice or filing with, any Governmental Authority or the issuer of any Subsidiary Equity is required either (i) for the pledge made by an Obligor or for the granting of the security interest by an Obligor pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) for the exercise by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties of their rights and remedies hereunder (except as may be required by laws affecting the offering and sale of securities or UCC, United States Patent and Trademark Office or United States Copyright Office filings to perfect such security interests).

(k) No Other Shares. As of the Closing Date, no Obligor owns any Subsidiary Equity other than as set forth on Schedule 1(b)(ii) attached hereto. All Certificated Securities representing Subsidiary Equity and all certificates evidencing Collateral in existence on the date hereof (A) have been delivered to the Administrative Agent accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or assignment or (B) are in the possession of an Obligor and each such Obligor holding such Certificated Securities and certificates evidencing Collateral hereby agrees to hold such Certificated Securities and certificates evidencing Collateral that are in its possession as bailee for the benefit of and on behalf of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent has a perfected first priority security interest therein.

(l) Partnership, Non-Profit Corporation and Limited Liability Company Interests. All Subsidiary Equity consisting of partnership, non-profit corporation or limited liability company interests constitute General Intangibles and are not represented by Certificated Securities unless delivered to the Administrative Agent and accompanied by duly executed instruments of transfer or otherwise held by an Obligor for the benefit of the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3(k) hereof.

(vi) Whenever such Obligor, either by itself or through any agent, employee, licensee or designee, shall file an application for the registration of any Intellectual Property with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof or obtain any additional Copyright, Patent or Trademark, such Obligor shall report such filing or acquisition to the Administrative Agent within fifty (50) days after the end of each fiscal quarter in which such filing or acquisition occurs and any such Intellectual Property shall automatically constitute Collateral (to the extent it would not otherwise be considered Excluded Property) and be subject to the Lien and security interest created by this Agreement without further action by any party. Such Obligor shall execute and deliver, and have recorded, any and all agreements, instruments, documents, and papers as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to evidence the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ security interest in any Copyright, Patent or Trademark and the goodwill and general intangibles of such Obligor relating thereto or represented thereby.

(vii) Such Obligor will take all reasonable and necessary steps, including, without limitation, in any proceeding before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, the United States Copyright Office or any similar office or agency in any other country or any political subdivision thereof, to maintain and pursue each application for (and to obtain the relevant registration of) and to maintain each registration of the material Intellectual Property, including, without limitation, filing of applications for renewal, affidavits of use and affidavits of incontestability except to the extent such Obligor in good faith deems the same to be no longer commercially reasonable or necessary for its business.

(viii) In the event that any material Intellectual Property is infringed, misappropriated or diluted by a third party, such Obligor shall take such actions as such Obligor shall in good faith deem appropriate under the circumstances to protect such Intellectual Property and if such Intellectual Property is of material economic value, promptly notify the Administrative Agent after it learns thereof and, to the extent such Obligor in good faith deems it commercially reasonable to do so, sue for infringement, misappropriation or dilution, to seek injunctive relief where appropriate and to recover any and all damages for such infringement, misappropriation or dilution.

(j) Insurance. Insure, repair and replace the Collateral of such Obligor as set forth in the Credit Agreement. All insurance proceeds paid in connection with any insurance providing coverage with respect to any Collateral shall be subject to the security interest of the Administrative Agent hereunder.

 

-12-


(k) Further Assurances. Each Obligor shall take such further actions, and execute and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent such additional financing statements, amendments, assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Administrative Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or appropriate in order to create, perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Administrative Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm the validity, enforceability and priority of the Administrative Agent’s security interest in the Collateral or permit the Administrative Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral.

5. Advances. On failure of any Obligor to perform any of the covenants and agreements contained herein, the Administrative Agent may, at its sole option and in its sole discretion, after reasonable notice to such Obligor (to the extent practicable) perform the same and in so doing may expend such sums as the Administrative Agent reasonably may deem advisable in the performance thereof, including, without limitation, the payment of insurance premiums, the payment of taxes, a payment to obtain a release of a Lien or potential Lien, expenditures made in defending against adverse claims and other expenditures that the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may reasonably make for the protection of the security hereof or which may be compelled to make by operation of law. All such sums and amounts so expended shall be repayable by the Obligors on a joint and several basis promptly upon timely notice thereof and demand therefor, shall constitute additional Obligations and shall bear interest from the date said amounts are expended at the Default Rate. No such performance of any covenant or agreement by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties on behalf of any Obligor, and no such advance or expenditure therefor, shall relieve the Obligors of any Default or Event of Default. The Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may make any payment hereby authorized in accordance with any bill, statement or estimate procured from the appropriate public office or holder of the claim to be discharged without inquiry into the accuracy of such bill, statement or estimate or into the validity of any tax assessment, sale, forfeiture, tax lien, title or claim except to the extent such payment is being contested in good faith by an Obligor in appropriate proceedings and against which adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with GAAP.

6. Remedies.

(a) General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in the Secured Hedge Agreements and/or the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligations, or under applicable Laws (including, but not limited to, levy of attachment, garnishment and the rights and remedies set forth in the UCC), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others, (i) enter on any premises on which any of the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Obligors, take possession of the Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Obligors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the expense of the Obligors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent that is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the

 

-13-


Obligors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale (which in the case of a private sale of Subsidiary Equity, shall be to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof), at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, by one or more contracts, in one or more parcels, for cash, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all mandatory legal requirements). Each Obligor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms that might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and, in the case of a sale of Subsidiary Equity, that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Obligor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement at least 10 Business Days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. Each Obligor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell any Subsidiary Equity that has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such offer may be advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (ii) made privately in the manner described above shall be deemed to involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may not constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Administrative Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by law, any Secured Party may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Obligors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties may further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place.

(b) Remedies Relating to Accounts. During the continuation of an Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any Obligor’s rights against any account debtors and obligors on such Obligor’s Accounts. Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own convenience and that such Obligor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. The Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall have no liability or responsibility to any Obligor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words of similar

 

-14-


import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance. Furthermore, during the continuation of an Event of Default, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable, and the Obligors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent may require in connection with such test verifications, (ii) upon the Administrative Agent’s request and at the expense of the Obligors, the Obligors shall cause independent public accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts and (iii) the Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the Accounts to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts.

(c) Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Obligors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of the Obligors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or otherwise. In addition, the Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order effectively to collect or liquidate such Collateral.

(d) Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any Secured Hedge Agreement and/or the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligation between any Obligor and any Secured Party, or as provided by law, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by law, none of the Administrative Agent, the Secured Parties and any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agents and the Secured Parties under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may have.

(e) Retention of Collateral. The Administrative Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or otherwise in compliance with the requirements of applicable law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided the notices required pursuant to Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the UCC or other applicable law, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Obligations for any reason.

 

-15-


(f) Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties are legally entitled, the Obligors who are Guarantors shall be jointly and severally liable for the deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the reasonable fees of any attorneys employed by the Administrative Agent to collect such deficiency. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Obligations shall be returned to the Obligors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

7. Rights of the Administrative Agent.

(a) Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney contained herein, each Obligor hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Secured Parties, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Obligor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

(i) to demand, collect, settle, compromise, adjust, give discharges and releases, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine;

(ii) to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the purposes of collecting any Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof;

(iii) to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably appropriate;

(iv) receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to an Obligor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral of such Obligor on behalf of and in the name of such Obligor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral;

(v) sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent were the absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

(vi) adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

(vii) execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, security agreements, affidavits, notices and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated therein;

(viii) institute any foreclosure proceedings that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate; and

 

-16-


(ix) do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem to be necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the Collateral.

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, and shall not be liable for any failure to do so or any delay in doing so. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred on the Administrative Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral.

(b) Assignment by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may from time to time assign the Obligations to a successor Administrative Agent appointed in accordance pursuant to Section 9.09 the Credit Agreement, and such successor shall be entitled to all of the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement in relation thereto.

(c) The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Obligors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the Obligors. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which shall be no less than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 6 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to clean-up, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.

(d) Liability with Respect to Accounts. The Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of an Obligor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.

(e) Voting and Payment Rights in Respect of the Subsidiary Equity.

 

-17-


(i) So long as no Event of Default shall exist, each Obligor may (A) exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Subsidiary Equity of such Obligor or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement and (B) receive and retain any and all dividends (other than stock dividends and other dividends constituting Collateral that are addressed hereinabove), principal or interest paid in respect of the Subsidiary Equity to the extent they are allowed under the Credit Agreement; and

(ii) During the continuance of an Event of Default, (A) all rights of an Obligor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to clause (i)(A) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to exercise such voting and other consensual rights, (B) all rights of an Obligor to receive the dividends, principal and interest payments that it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such dividends, principal and interest payments, and (C) all dividends, principal and interest payments that are received by an Obligor contrary to the provisions of clause (ii)(B) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Obligor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Collateral in the exact form received, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral and as further collateral security for the Obligations.

8. Application of Proceeds. Any payments in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Parties in cash or its equivalent, will be applied in reduction of the Obligations to the extent and in the order set forth in Section 8.03 of the Credit Agreement.

9. Continuing Agreement.

(a) This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect until such time as the Obligations have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or been terminated, at which time this Agreement shall be automatically terminated and the Administrative Agent shall, upon the request and at the expense of the Obligors, forthwith release all of its liens and security interests hereunder and shall execute and deliver all UCC termination statements and/or other documents reasonably requested by the Obligors evidencing such termination.

(b) This Agreement shall continue to be effective or be automatically reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any of the Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party as a preference, fraudulent conveyance or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, all as though such payment had not been made; provided that in the event payment of all or any part of the Obligations is rescinded or must be restored or returned, all reasonable costs and expenses (including without limitation any reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in defending and enforcing such reinstatement shall be deemed to be included as a part of the Obligations.

10. Amendments; Waivers; Modifications, etc. This Agreement and the provisions hereof may not be amended, waived, modified, changed, discharged or terminated except as set forth in Section 10.01 of the Credit Agreement.

 

 

-18-


11. Successors in Interest. This Agreement shall be binding upon each Obligor, its successors and assigns and shall inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties hereunder, to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties and their successors and permitted assigns.

12. Notices and Other Communications. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in conformance with Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement.

13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument. It shall not be necessary in making proof of this Agreement to produce or account for more than one such counterpart. Delivery by telecopier or electronic transmission of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement shall be effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement.

14. Headings. The headings of the sections hereof are provided for convenience only and shall not in any way affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

15. Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. The terms of Sections 10.15 and 10.16 of the Credit Agreement with respect to governing law, submission to jurisdiction, venue and waiver of jury trial are incorporated herein by reference, mutatis mutandis, and the parties hereto agree to such terms.

16. Severability. If any provision of any of the Agreement is determined to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect and shall be construed without giving effect to the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions.

17. Entirety. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Secured Hedge Agreements and/or the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligations between any Obligor and any Secured Party represent the entire agreement of the parties hereto and thereto, and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, if any, including any commitment letters or correspondence relating to the Loan Documents, the Secured Hedge Agreements and/or the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligations between any Obligor and any Secured Party or the transactions contemplated herein and therein.

18. Other Security. To the extent that any of the Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral, or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties have the right, in their sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties shall at any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or any of the Administrative Agent’s and the Secured Parties’ rights or the Obligations under this Agreement, under any other of the Loan Documents or under any Secured Hedge Agreement and/or the documentation governing any Cash Management Obligation between any Obligor and any Secured Party.

 

-19-


19. Additional Obligors. Each Wholly Owned Material Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not an Excluded Subsidiary acquired or created after the date hereof and any Subsidiary that ceases to be an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case, that is required to enter into this Agreement as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Credit Agreement shall execute and deliver a Supplement to this Agreement Supplement in the form of Exhibit E hereto to the Administrative Agent and thereupon such Subsidiary shall become an Obligor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as an Obligor herein. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Obligor hereunder. The execution and delivery of any such instrument shall not require the consent of any other Obligor hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Obligor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Obligor as a party to this Agreement.

20. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement amends and restates the Existing Security Agreement. The grant of security interest in the Collateral by the Obligors under the Existing Security Agreement shall continue under this Agreement, and shall not in any event be terminated, extinguished or annulled, but shall hereafter be governed by this Agreement. All references to the Existing Security Agreement in any Loan Document (other than this Agreement) or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and the provisions hereof. It is understood and agreed that the Existing Security Agreement is being amended and restated by entry into this Agreement on the date hereof.

21. Intercreditor Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement and each other Loan Document are subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement in all respects, and in the event of any conflict between the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement shall govern. The delivery of any Collateral that constitutes Possessory Collateral (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent pursuant to any Revolving Credit Agreement shall satisfy any delivery requirement to the extent that such delivery is consistent with the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement.

The Obligors have entered into the Security Agreement in order to induce (x) the Lenders to make Loans, (y) the Hedge Banks to enter into and/or maintain Secured Hedge Agreements and (z) the Cash Management Banks to provide Cash Management Services. Section 19 of the Security Agreement provides that certain Material Subsidiaries of the Borrower that are not Excluded Subsidiaries shall become Obligors under the Security Agreement by execution and delivery of an instrument in the form of this Supplement. The undersigned Restricted Subsidiary (the “New Subsidiary”) is executing this Supplement in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement to become an Obligor under the Security Agreement in order to induce (x) the Lenders to make additional Loans, (y) the Hedge Banks to enter into and/or maintain Secured Hedge Agreements and (z) the Cash Management Banks to provide Cash Management Services and as consideration for (x) Loans previously made, (y) Secured Hedge Agreements previously entered into and/or maintained and (z) Cash Management Services previously provided.

Accordingly, the Administrative Agent and the New Subsidiary agree as follows:

SECTION 1. In accordance with Section 19 of the Security Agreement, the New Subsidiary by its signature below becomes an Obligor under the Security Agreement with the same force and effect as if originally named therein as an Obligor and the New Subsidiary hereby (a) agrees to all the terms and provisions of the Security Agreement applicable to it as an Obligor thereunder and (b) represents and warrants that the representations and warranties made by it as an Obligor thereunder are true and correct on and as of the date hereof, except for representations and warranties made as of a specified date, which shall be true and correct as of such date. In furtherance of the foregoing, the New Subsidiary, to secure the prompt payment in full when due,

 

E-1


whether by lapse of time, acceleration, mandatory prepayment or otherwise, of the Obligations (as defined in the Security Agreement), does hereby, for the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement), their successors and assigns, grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement), a continuing security interest in, and a right to set off against, any and all right, title and interest of the New Subsidiary in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Security Agreement) of the New Subsidiary. Each reference to an “Obligor” in the Security Agreement shall be deemed to include the New Subsidiary. The Security Agreement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 2. The New Subsidiary represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties (as defined in the Security Agreement) that (a) this Supplement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its legal, valid and binding obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by Debtor Relief Laws and by general principles of equity and (b) each of the schedules to the Security Agreement is hereby supplemented to reflect the information shown on the attached Schedule A (with references to the Closing Date in the applicable provision of the Security Agreement being deemed to mean the date hereof for the purposes of such information to be provided by the New Subsidiary).

SECTION 3. This Supplement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Supplement shall become effective when the Administrative Agent shall have received a counterpart of this Supplement that bears the signature of the New Subsidiary, and the Administrative Agent has executed a counterpart hereof. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Supplement by facsimile transmission or other electronic communication shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Supplement.

SECTION 4. Except as expressly supplemented hereby, the Security Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 5. THIS SUPPLEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 6. If any provision contained in this Supplement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the legality, validity, and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and in the Security Agreement shall not be affected or impaired thereby. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 7. All communications and notices hereunder shall be in writing and given as provided in Section 12 of the Security Agreement.

SECTION 8. The New Subsidiary agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection with the execution and delivery of this Supplement, including the reasonable fees, other charges and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent.

WHEREAS, each Direct Investor desires to enter into this Agreement in order to satisfy the condition described in the preceding paragraph;


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the benefits accruing to each Direct Investor, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Direct Investor hereby makes the following representations and warranties to each Administrative Agent and hereby covenants and agrees with each Administrative Agent as follows:

SECTION 1. DRAG ALONG RIGHTS. Subject to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, in the event that either Administrative Agent sells the shares it owns in the Company pursuant to the exercise of its rights under the Security Documents (each a “Sale”), each Direct Investor hereby agrees that upon such Administrative Agent’s request, it shall sell, transfer and deliver, or cause to be sold, transferred and delivered to the purchaser thereof (the “Purchaser”) all (but not less than all) of the Shares owned by such Direct Investor at the same price per share and on the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the shares held by such Administrative Agent, provided that no Direct Investor shall be required to make any representation or warranty or agreement with the Purchaser other than representations, warranties and agreements regarding such Direct Investor and its ownership of the Shares to be sold in such Sale.

SECTION 2. CONSIDERATION. The consideration to be received by each Direct Investor for the Shares shall be the same consideration per share to be received by the applicable Administrative Agent, and the terms and conditions of such sale by each Direct Investor shall be the same as those upon which such Administrative Agent sells its shares. A pro rata portion of the consideration payable to such Direct Investor in connection with such Sale may be subject to an escrow agreement on the same basis as the other Persons participating in such Sale.

SECTION 3. PROCEDURES.

(a) If requested by either Administrative Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default under the applicable Credit Agreement, each Direct Investor shall deliver to such Administrative Agent, to be held for sale, or return in the event the Sale is not consummated, upon the terms of this Section 3, the Shares held by such Direct Investor, duly endorsed, together with a power-of-attorney authorizing such Administrative Agent to sell or otherwise dispose of such shares pursuant to such Sale and to take all actions necessary, and to execute and deliver all documents necessary, to sell or otherwise dispose of the shares to be sold pursuant to such Sale.

(b) Each Direct Investor hereby agrees to cooperate in consummating the Sale, including, without limitation, by becoming a party to the sale agreement and all other appropriate related agreements, delivering any instruments for the Shares, duly endorsed for transfer, free and clear of all liens and encumbrances, and voting or consenting in favor of such transaction (to the extent a vote or consent is required) and taking any other necessary or appropriate action in furtherance thereof, including the execution and delivery of any other appropriate agreements, certificates, instruments and other documents.

(c) Promptly after the consummation of the sale of shares of such Administrative Agent and each Direct Investor pursuant to this Section 3, such Administrative Agent (x) shall give notice thereof to each Direct Investor and (y) shall remit to each Direct Investor the total sales price of the Shares of such Direct Investor sold pursuant thereto (after deduction of each Direct Investor’s proportionate share of (i) the expenses associated with such sale, (ii) amounts paid into escrow or held back, in the reasonable determination of such Administrative Agent, for indemnification or post-closing expenses, and (iii) amounts subject to post-closing purchase price


adjustments, based on the number of Shares sold by each Direct Investor in relation to the total number of shares being sold pursuant to this Section 3). Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 3, in the event that all or a portion of the purchase price of the shares being sold pursuant to the Sale consists of non-cash consideration, the applicable Administrative Agent may, at its option, cause to be delivered to each Direct Investor, in lieu of such non-cash consideration allocable to the shares being sold pursuant to the Sale, cash in an amount equal to the fair market value of such non-cash consideration, as reasonably determined by such Administrative Agent; provided, that if such non-cash consideration allocable to the shares being sold pursuant to the Sale may not in the opinion of such Administrative Agent be transferred lawfully without a Direct Investor effecting regulatory compliance procedures (including, without limitation, preparation, registration or pre-registration of disclosure documentation), the fair market value of such non-cash consideration, as determined in good faith by Company’s Board of Directors or equivalent, shall be paid to such Direct Investor in lieu of such non-cash consideration.

SECTION 4. COVENANTS OF THE DIRECT INVESTOR. Each Direct Investor covenants and agrees that it will not sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or pledge or otherwise encumber the Shares to any transferee or any interest therein except in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, unless (i) the Administrative Agents are notified in writing 30 days prior to such transfer, (ii) such transferee agrees in a writing which is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agents to be bound by the terms hereof and assumes the obligations and restrictions imposed hereby and (iii) the written agreement referred to in the preceding clause (ii) is delivered to the Administrative Agents prior to such transfer.

SECTION 5. LEGEND. At the request of the Administrative Agents, each Direct Investor shall deliver each certificate representing the Shares to the Company to be stamped or otherwise imprinted with a legend in substantially the following form:

THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO

THE DRAG ALONG RIGHTS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF                     , 20    , AMONG EACH OF THE DIRECT INVESTORS PARTY THERETO, WILMINGTON TRUST, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, AS TERM LOAN ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., AS REVOLVER ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, AS THE SAME MAY BE AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF WHICH THE TRANSFER OF SUCH SHARES IS RESTRICTED. SUCH AGREEMENT ALSO PROVIDES FOR VARIOUS OTHER LIMITATIONS AND OBLIGATIONS, AND ALL OF THE TERMS THEREOF ARE INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE HEREIN.

SECTION 6. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate on the date upon termination of, in the case of each Credit Agreement, the Aggregate Commitments and payment in full of all Obligations (other than (x) obligations under Secured Hedge Agreements not yet due and payable, (y) Cash Management Obligations not yet due and payable and (z) contingent indemnification obligations not yet accrued and payable), the expiration or termination of all Letters of Credit and any other obligation (including a guarantee that is contingent in nature).


SECTION 7. WAIVER. No failure on the part of either Administrative Agent to exercise and no delay in exercising, and no course of dealing with respect to, any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, the applicable Credit Agreement or any other Collateral Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement, the applicable Credit Agreement or any other Collateral Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

SECTION 8. NOTICES, ETC. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be delivered or mailed by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed:

SECTION 11. SURVIVAL.

All representations and warranties made by the Administrative Agents herein shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Direct Investors and shall survive the Sale of the Shares.

SECTION 12. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Damages in the event of breach of this Agreement by any Direct Investor or any Administrative Agent would be difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain, and it is therefore agreed that each Direct Investor and each Administrative Agent, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, will have the right to an injunction or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, enjoining


any such breach, and enforcing specifically the terms and provisions hereof, and each Direct Investor and each Administrative Agent hereby waives any and all defenses it may have on the ground of lack of jurisdiction or competence of the court to grant such an injunction or other equitable relief. The existence of this right will not preclude any Direct Investor or any Administrative Agent from pursuing any other rights and remedies at law or in equity which such Direct Investor or such Administrative Agent may have.

SECTION 13. CAPTIONS. The captions and section headings appearing herein are included solely for convenience of reference and are not intended to affect the interpretation of any provision of this Agreement.

SECTION 15. MISCELLANEOUS. This Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, subject to termination as set forth in Section 6. In the event that any provision of this Agreement shall prove to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be deemed to be severable from the other provisions of this Agreement which shall remain binding on all parties hereto.

SECTION 16. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE.

(a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT, EACH DIRECT INVESTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH DIRECT INVESTOR FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO EACH DIRECT INVESTOR AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH OPPOSITE ITS SIGNATURE BELOW, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH MAILING. EACH DIRECT INVESTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENTS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE DIRECT INVESTOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.


(b) TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH DIRECT INVESTOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE AND HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY SUCH COURT THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM.

SECTION 17. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each party hereto hereby irrevocably waives all right to a trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

Each Credit Agreement Agent, on behalf of itself and its Credit Agreement Secured Parties, agrees that, prior to the commencement of any enforcement of rights or any exercise of remedies with respect to any Shared Collateral by such Credit Agreement Agent or such Credit Agreement Secured Parties, such Credit Agreement Agent or such Credit Agreement Secured Party, as the case may be, shall provide prior written notice thereof to each other Credit Agreement Agent, such notice to be provided as far in advance of such commencement as reasonably practicable, and shall consult with each other Credit Agreement Agent on a regular basis in connection with such enforcement or exercise. Each Credit Agreement Agent agrees, on behalf of itself and its Credit Agreement Secured Parties, that such Credit Agreement Agent and its Credit Agreement Secured Parties shall cooperate in a commercially reasonable manner with each other Credit Agreement Agent and its Credit Agreement Secured Parties in any enforcement of rights or any exercise of remedies with respect to any Shared Collateral.

(c) At any time when any Credit Agreement Agent is the Applicable Collateral Agent, no Additional Pari Debt Secured Party shall, or shall instruct any Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral), whether under any Additional Pari Security Document, applicable law or

 

-13-


otherwise, it being agreed that only a Credit Agreement Agent, acting in accordance with Section 2.02(b), shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies with respect to Shared Collateral at such time.

(d) With respect to any Shared Collateral at any time when any Additional Pari Debt Agent is the Applicable Collateral Agent, (i) the Applicable Collateral Agent shall not follow any instructions with respect to such Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral) from any Non-Controlling Collateral Agent (or any other Pari Debt Secured Party other than the Controlling Secured Parties) and (ii) no Non-Controlling Collateral Agent or other Pari Debt Secured Party (other than the Applicable Collateral Agent or the Controlling Secured Parties) shall, or shall instruct the Applicable Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral), whether under any Pari Debt Security Document, applicable law or otherwise, it being agreed that only the Applicable Collateral Agent, acting in accordance with the applicable Pari Debt Security Documents, shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies with respect to Shared Collateral.

(e) Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens securing each Series of Pari Debt Obligations, the Applicable Collateral Agent may deal with the Shared Collateral as if such Applicable Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Collateral Agent or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Applicable Collateral Agent or the Controlling Secured Party in accordance with this Agreement or any other exercise by the Applicable Collateral Agent or the Controlling Secured Party of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral in accordance with this Agreement, or to cause the Applicable Collateral Agent to do so. The foregoing shall not be construed to limit the rights and priorities of any Pari Debt Secured Party or any Collateral Agent with respect to any Collateral not constituting Shared Collateral.

(f) Each of the Pari Debt Secured Parties agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) question or contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity, attachment or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the Pari Debt Secured Parties on all or any part of the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent to enforce this Agreement.

SECTION 2.03 No Interference; Payment Over.

(a) Each Pari Debt Secured Party agrees that (i) it will not (and shall be deemed to have waived any right to) challenge, contest, or question, or support any other Person in challenging, contesting, or questioning, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding) the validity or enforceability of any Pari Debt Obligations of any Series or any Pari Debt Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any

 

-14-


Lien under any Pari Debt Security Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement, (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Applicable Collateral Agent, (iii) except as provided in Section 2.02, it shall have no right to (A) direct the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement) or (B) consent to the exercise by the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral, (iv) it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to any Shared Collateral, and none of the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Applicable Collateral Agent or other Pari Debt Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (v) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Shared Collateral or any part thereof marshalled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral and (vi) it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party to enforce this Agreement.

(b) Each Pari Debt Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Shared Collateral, pursuant to any Pari Debt Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement, other than this Agreement) or otherwise in contravention of this Agreement, at any time prior to the Discharge of each of the Pari Debt Obligations, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other Pari Debt Secured Parties and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Applicable Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.01.

SECTION 2.04 Automatic Release of Liens.

(a) If at any time the Applicable Collateral Agent forecloses upon or otherwise exercises remedies against any Shared Collateral resulting in a sale or disposition thereof, then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of the other Collateral Agents for the benefit of each Series of Pari Debt Secured Parties upon such Shared Collateral will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Applicable Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; provided that any proceeds of any Shared Collateral realized therefrom shall be applied pursuant to Section 2.01.

(b) Each Collateral Agent agrees to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Applicable Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral provided for in this Section.

SECTION 2.05 Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.

(a) This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, including any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Bankruptcy Law by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is acknowledged and agreed that this Agreement constitutes a “subordination agreement” within the meaning of both New York law and Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, including with respect to the provisions of this Article II, and all references to “Grantor” shall include any Grantor as debtor and debtor in possession (and any receiver, trustee, or other estate representative for such Grantor, as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding.

(b) In furtherance of the provisions of this Agreement, no Pari Debt Secured Party shall propose, support, vote in favor of, or otherwise agree to any Non-Conforming Plan of Reorganization.

SECTION 2.06 Reinstatement. In the event that any of the Pari Debt Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement or avoidance of a preference or fraudulent transfer under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, then such Pari Debt Obligation shall be reinstated to the extent of such payment, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be fully applicable thereto until all such Pari Debt Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

SECTION 2.07 Insurance. As between the Pari Debt Secured Parties, the Applicable Collateral Agent acting in accordance with Section 2.02 shall have the right to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral.

SECTION 2.08 Refinancings. The Pari Debt Obligations of any Series may be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document of such debt being Refinanced) of, any Pari Debt Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein (including, without limitation, the priority in right of payment of the Priority Payment Obligations (if applicable)) or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Collateral Agent of the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing indebtedness.

SECTION 2.09 Possessory Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.

(a) The Possessory Collateral shall be delivered to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent and the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral that is part of the Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Pari Debt Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable Pari Debt Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09; provided that at any time the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent is not the Applicable Collateral Agent (including as a result of the occurrence of a Non-Controlling Collateral Agent Enforcement Date), the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent shall, at the request of the Applicable Collateral Agent, promptly deliver all Possessory Collateral to the Applicable Collateral Agent together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the applicable Additional Pari Debt Agent to obtain control of such Possessory Collateral). The Borrower shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify each Collateral Agent for loss or damage suffered by such Collateral Agent as a result of such transfer except for loss or damage suffered by such Collateral Agent as a result of its own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith.

(b) The Applicable Collateral Agent agrees to hold, in accordance with the applicable Pari Debt Documents, any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral, from time to time in its possession, as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Pari Debt Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Possessory Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable Pari Debt Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09.

(c) The duties or responsibilities of each Collateral Agent under this Section 2.09 shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Possessory Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other Pari Debt Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such Pari Debt Secured Parties thereon.

(d) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Grantor hereby grants a security interest in the Shared Collateral to each Collateral Agent that controls Shared Collateral for the benefit of all Pari Debt Secured Parties which have been granted a Lien on the Shared Collateral controlled by such Collateral Agent.

SECTION 2.10 [Reserved].

SECTION 2.11 Acknowledgement of Liens. The Borrower and all other Grantors, each Collateral Agent and each Pari Debt Secured Party agrees and acknowledges that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Secured Credit Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral or all other collateral, the Revolving Credit Agreement Debt is fundamentally different from the Term Loan Credit Agreement Debt and the Pari Debt Obligations (if any) and must be separately classified in any Plan of Reorganization proposed, confirmed, or adopted in any proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Revolving Secured Parties with respect to Priority Payment Obligations and any Non-Revolving Secured Parties in respect of the Collateral consti-

 

-17-


tute only one class of secured claims (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims in the manner provided herein), then the Revolving Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them from, or in respect of, the Collateral in respect of principal, pre-petition interest, and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees, costs, expenses, premiums, and other charges with respect to the Priority Payment Obligations, irrespective of whether a claim for such amounts is allowed or allowable in such proceeding under any Bankruptcy Law, before any distribution from, or in respect of, any Collateral is made in respect of the claims held by the Non-Revolving Secured Parties, with the Non-Revolving Secured Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Revolving Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the claim or recovery of the Non-Revolving Secured Parties.

ARTICLE III

Existence and Amounts of Liens and Obligations

SECTION 3.01 Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Liens and Obligations. Whenever a Collateral Agent shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any Pari Debt Obligations of any Series, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the Pari Debt Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to make such determination or not make any determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if a Collateral Agent shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of the Borrower. Each Collateral Agent may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any Pari Debt Secured Party or any other Person as a result of such determination.

ARTICLE IV

The Applicable Collateral Agent

SECTION 4.01 Authority.

(a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed to impose any duty on any Applicable Collateral Agent to any Non-Controlling Secured Party or give any Non-Controlling Secured Party the right to direct any Applicable Collateral Agent, except that each Applicable Collateral Agent shall be obligated to distribute proceeds of any Shared Collateral in accordance with Section 2.01. Additionally, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed to impose any duty on the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent to any Term Loan Credit Agreement Secured Party or on the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent to any Revolving Credit Agreement Secured Party or give any Term Loan Credit Agreement Secured Party the right to direct the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent or give any Revolving Credit Agreement Secured Party the right to direct the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent, except that each such Collateral Agent shall be obligated to distribute proceeds of any Shared Collateral in accordance with Section 2.01.

 

-18-


(b) In furtherance of the foregoing, each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the Pari Debt Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the Pari Debt Documents, as applicable, pursuant to which the Applicable Collateral Agent is the collateral agent for such Shared Collateral, without regard to any rights to which the Secured Parties would otherwise be entitled as a result of the Pari Debt Obligations held by such Non-Controlling Secured Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, each Secured Party agrees that none of the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the Pari Debt Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any Pari Debt Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the Pari Debt Secured Parties waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against any Collateral Agent or any other Pari Debt Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions which any Collateral Agent or the Pari Debt Secured Parties take or omit to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the Pari Debt Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the Pari Debt Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the Pari Debt Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the Pari Debt Obligations, (ii) any election by any Collateral Agent or any holders of Pari Debt Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject to Section 2.05, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall not accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any Pari Debt Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without the consent of each Collateral Agent representing holders of Pari Debt Obligations for which such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral.

(a) No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereto are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have.

SECTION 5.11 Conflicts. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any of the Pari Debt Documents or any of the other Secured Credit Documents, the provisions of this Agreement shall control.

SECTION 5.12 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Pari Debt Secured Parties in relation to one another. None of the Borrower, any other Grantor or any creditor thereof shall have any rights or obligations hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement (provided that nothing in this Agreement (other than Section 2.04, 2.05, 2.08, 2.09 or Article V) is intended to or will amend, waive or otherwise modify the provisions of the Credit Agreements or any Additional Pari Debt Documents), and none of the Borrower or any other Grantor may rely on the terms hereof (other than Sections 2.04, 2.05, 2.08, 2.09 and Article V). Nothing in this Agreement is intended to or shall impair the obligations of any Grantor, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Pari Debt Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms.

SECTION 5.13 Additional Senior Debt. To the extent, but only to the extent, permitted by the provisions of the Credit Agreements and the Additional Pari Debt Documents, the Borrower may incur additional indebtedness after the date hereof that is permitted by the Credit Agreements and the Additional Pari Debt Documents to be incurred and secured on an equal and ratable basis by the Liens securing the Pari Debt Obligations (such indebtedness referred to as “Additional Senior Class Debt”). Any such Additional Senior Class Debt may be secured by a Lien and may be Guaranteed by the Grantors on a senior basis, in each case under and pursuant to the Additional Pari Debt Documents, if and subject to the condition that the Additional Pari Debt Agent of any such Additional Senior Class Debt (each an “Additional Senior Class Debt Representative”), acting on behalf of the holders of such Additional Senior Class Debt (such Additional Pari Debt Agent and holders in respect of any Additional Senior Class Debt being referred to as the “Additional Senior Class Debt Parties”) becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) of the immediately succeeding paragraph.

In order for an Additional Senior Class Debt Representative to become a party to this Agreement,

(i) such Additional Senior Class Debt Representative, each Collateral Agent and each Grantor shall have executed and delivered an instrument substantially in the form of Annex II (with such changes as may be reasonably approved by such Collateral Agent and Additional Senior Class Debt Representative, and, to the extent such changes increase the obligations or reduce the rights of a Grantor, by such Grantor) pursuant to

 

-23-


which such Additional Senior Class Debt Representative becomes an Additional Pari Debt Agent hereunder and the Additional Senior Class Debt in respect of which such Additional Senior Class Debt Representative is the Additional Pari Debt Agent and the related Additional Senior Class Debt Parties become subject hereto and bound hereby;

(ii) the Borrower shall have (x) delivered to each Collateral Agent true and complete copies of each of the Additional Pari Debt Documents relating to such Additional Senior Class Debt, certified as being true and correct by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower, and (y) identified in a certificate of an authorized officer the obligations to be designated as Additional Pari Debt Obligations and the initial aggregate principal amount or face amount thereof; and

(iii) the Additional Pari Debt Documents, as applicable, relating to such Additional Senior Class Debt shall provide that each Additional Senior Class Debt Party with respect to such Additional Senior Class Debt will be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement in its capacity as a holder of such Additional Senior Class Debt.

Each Collateral Agent acknowledges and agrees that upon execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex II by an Additional Senior Class Debt Representative and each Grantor in accordance with this Section 5.13, Additional Pari Debt Agent shall act in its capacity as Additional Pari Debt Agent on behalf of the Additional Pari Debt Secured Parties.

SECTION 5.14 Agent Capacities. Except as expressly provided herein or in the Revolving Credit Agreement Collateral Documents, JPMorgan is acting in the capacity of Revolving Credit Agreement Agent solely for the Revolving Credit Agreement Secured Parties. Except as expressly provided herein or in the Term Loan Credit Agreement Collateral Documents, Wilmington is acting in the capacity of Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent solely for the Term Loan Credit Agreement Secured Parties. Except as expressly set forth herein, none of the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent, the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent or any Additional Pari Debt Agent shall have any duties or obligations in respect of any of the Collateral, all of such duties and obligations, if any, being subject to and governed by the applicable Secured Credit Documents. Furthermore, for the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that Wilmington is entering into this Agreement in its capacity as Administrative Agent under the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the provisions of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, including Article IX and Section 10.04 and 10.05, are applicable to Wilmington as Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent hereunder to the same extent that they are applicable to Wilmington as Administrative Agent thereunder.

SECTION 5.15 Integration. This Agreement together with the other Secured Credit Documents and the Pari Debt Documents represents the agreement of each of the Grantors and the Pari Debt Secured Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Grantor, the Credit Agreement Agents or any other Pari Debt Secured Party relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Secured Credit Documents or the Pari Debt Documents.

SECTION 5.16 Replacement of Revolving Lenders under Certain Circumstances.

(a) Any of the Term Lenders (each an “Eligible Purchaser”) shall have the right to purchase by way of assignment, at any time during the exercise period described in Section 5.16(c) below, all, but not less than all, of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Lenders (including, without duplication, Unreimbursed Amounts drawn in respect of Letters of Credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of the then outstanding Letters of Credit) including all principal of and accrued and unpaid interest and fees on and all prepayment or acceleration penalties and premiums in respect of such Obligations outstanding at the time of purchase. Upon receipt of a notice in accordance with Section 5.16(b) from an Eligible Purchaser, the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent will promptly notify each other Term Lender of the contents of such notice. Each such Term Lender may elect to participate in such purchase of the outstanding loans and commitments of the Revolving Lenders by providing written notice to the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York time) three (3) Business Days after the date of such Term Lender’s receipt of notice from the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent regarding such purchase. Unless otherwise agreed to by the Eligible Purchasers, the obligations to be purchased shall be allocated among the participating Eligible Purchasers ratably on the basis of the relative amount of the sum of each participating Eligible Purchaser’s (a) Total Outstandings (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) and (b) aggregate unused Term Commitments (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement). Any purchase pursuant to this Section 5.16(a) shall be made as follows:

(i) for a purchase price equal to the sum of (A) in the case of all Credit Extensions that constitute outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Lenders (including, without duplication, Unreimbursed Amounts drawn in respect of Letters of Credit, but excluding the undrawn amount of then outstanding Letters of Credit), 100% of the principal amount thereof and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of purchase (including any acceleration prepayment penalties or premiums), plus (B) all accrued and unpaid fees, expenses, indemnities and other amounts through the date of purchase;

(ii) with the purchase price described in preceding clause (a)(i) payable in cash on the date of purchase;

(iii) with all amounts payable in respect of the assignments described above to be distributed to them by the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent ratably among the Revolving Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in Section 5.16(a)(i) held by them; and

(iv) with such purchase to be made pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption; it being understood and agreed that the Revolving Lender shall retain all rights to indemnification as provided in the relevant Loan Documents for all periods prior to any assignment by them pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.16.

 

-25-


(b) The right to purchase the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Lenders as described in this Section 5.16 may be exercised (by giving the irrevocable written notice described below) during each of the periods that (1) begins on the date first to occur of (x) the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.02 of the Revolving Credit Agreement (or upon the Loans automatically becoming immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations having automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.02 of the Revolving Credit Agreement), (y) the occurrence of the final maturity of the Loans under the Revolving Credit Agreement or (z) the occurrence of an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(f) of the Revolving Credit Agreement and (2) ends on the 30th day after the start of the applicable period described above.

(c) The obligations of the Revolving Lenders to sell their respective loans and commitments under this Section 5.16 are several and not joint and several. To the extent any Revolving Lender (a “Defaulting Creditor”) breaches its obligation to sell its loans and commitments under this Section 5.16, nothing in this Section 5.16 shall be deemed to require the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent or any other Revolving Lender to purchase such Defaulting Creditor’s Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments for resale to the participating Eligible Purchasers and in all cases, the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent and each Revolving Lender complying with the terms of this Section 5.16 shall not be deemed to be in default of this Agreement or the Credit Agreements or otherwise be deemed liable for any action or inaction of any Defaulting Creditor.

(d) The right to exercise the purchase option described in Section 5.16(a) above shall be exercisable and legally enforceable upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ irrevocable prior written notice of exercise (which notice, once given, shall be irrevocable and fully binding on the respective Eligible Purchaser or Eligible Purchasers) given to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent by an Eligible Purchaser. Neither the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent nor any Revolving Lender shall have any disclosure obligation to any Eligible Purchaser in connection with any exercise of such purchase option.

(e) If the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent shall timely deliver the irrevocable written notice described above, upon the purchase date specified in such notice, the applicable Term Lenders shall furnish cash collateral to the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent in such amounts as the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent determines is reasonably necessary to secure the Revolving Credit Agreement Agent and the Revolving Lenders in respect of any issued and outstanding Letters of Credit (but not in any event in an amount greater than the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit).

Each Loan Party irrevocably consents to any assignment effected to one or more Eligible Purchasers pursuant to this Section 5.16 for purposes of all Loan Documents and hereby agrees that no further consent from such Loan Party shall be required.

The Grantors agree that, if any Person shall become a “Grantor” after the date hereof (“Additional Grantor”), the other Grantors will promptly cause such Additional Grantor to become party hereto by executing and delivering a supplement in the form of Annex III. Upon such execution and delivery, such Person will become a Grantor hereunder with the same force and effect as if originally named as a Grantor herein. The execution and delivery of such supplement shall not require the consent of any other party hereunder. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Agreement.

SECTION 5.18 Drag Along Rights Agreement. Each Grantor and each Secured Party agree that the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent shall act as agent for all Secured Parties with respect to all Drag Along Rights Agreements existing as of the date hereof. In the event of any exercise of remedies by any Collateral Agent in accordance with Section 2.02 with respect to any Shared Collateral subject to the Drag-Along Rights Agreements existing on the date hereof, the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent at the written request of such Collateral Agent and subject to receipt of any indemnity requested by the Term Loan Credit Agreement Agent in connection therewith shall take all actions requested by such Collateral Agent to afford to such Collateral Agent the benefits of the applicable Drag-Along Rights Agreement.
