You have further advised us that, in connection with the foregoing, you intend to consummate the other Transactions described in the Transaction Description attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Transaction Description”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Transaction Description or the Summary of Principal Terms and Conditions attached hereto as Exhibits B (the “Term Sheet”; this commitment letter, the Transaction Description, the Term Sheet and the Summary of Additional Conditions attached hereto as Exhibit C, collectively, the “Commitment Letter”).
     1. Commitments.
     In connection with the Transactions, each of JPMCB and UBS (each an “Initial Lender” and, collectively, the “Initial Lenders”) is pleased to advise you of its several, but not joint, commitment to provide 50% of the entire aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Facilities, subject only to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the section entitled “Conditions to Initial Borrowings” in Exhibit B hereto (limited on the Closing Date (as defined below) as indicated therein) and in Exhibit C hereto.

 


 

     2. Titles and Roles.
     It is agreed that (i) each of JPMorgan and UBSS will act as a lead arranger for the Senior Secured Facilities (each a “Lead Arranger” and collectively, the “Lead Arrangers”), (ii) each of JPMorgan and UBSS will act as a joint bookrunner for the Senior Secured Facilities (each a “Joint Bookrunner” and, collectively with the Lead Arrangers, the “Joint Bookrunners”), (iii) JPMCB will act as administrative agent and collateral agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”) for the Senior Secured Facilities and (iv) UBSS will act as syndication agent for the Senior Secured Facilities. It is further agreed that JPM shall have “left side” designation and shall appear on the top left of any Information Materials (as defined below) and all other offering or marketing materials in respect of the Senior Secured Facilities and that UBSS shall have “right side” designation and shall appear on the top right of any Information Materials and all other offering or marketing materials in respect of the Senior Secured Facilities. You agree that no other agents, co-agents, arrangers or bookrunners will be appointed, no other titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than compensation expressly contemplated by this Commitment Letter and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid to any Lender (as defined below) in order to obtain its commitment to participate in the Senior Secured Facilities unless you and we shall so agree.
     3. Syndication.
     The Lead Arrangers reserve the right, prior to or after the Closing Date, to syndicate all or a portion of the Initial Lenders’ respective commitments hereunder to a group of banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders and investors (together with the Initial Lenders, the “Lenders”) identified by the Lead Arrangers in consultation with you and reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers and you (your consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and you agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to provide the Initial Lenders with a period of at least 20 consecutive days (such time frame shall not include any days from August 19, 2011 to and including September 5, 2011) following receipt of the Information Memorandum (as defined below) (“Syndication Period”) in a form customarily delivered in connection with senior secured bank financings and prior to the Closing Date; provided that (a) we agree not to syndicate our commitments to certain banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders and competitors of the Target and its subsidiaries that have been specified to us by you in writing at any time prior to your acceptance of this Commitment Letter (or, if after that date, that are reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers) (“Disqualified Lenders”) and (b) notwithstanding the Lead Arrangers’ right to syndicate the Senior Secured Facilities and receive commitments with respect thereto (i) no Initial Lender shall be relieved, released or novated from its obligations hereunder (including its obligation to fund the Senior Secured Facilities on the date of the consummation of the Acquisition with the proceeds of the initial funding under the Senior Secured Facilities (the date of such funding, the “Closing Date”)) in connection with any syndication, assignment or participation of the Senior Secured Facilities, including its commitments in respect thereof, until after the Closing Date has occurred, (ii) no assignment or novation shall become effective with respect to all or any portion of any Initial Lender’s commitments in respect of the Senior Secured Facilities until the initial funding of the Senior Secured Facilities has occurred and (iii) unless you otherwise agree in writing, each Commitment Party shall retain exclusive control over all rights and obligations with respect to its commitments in respect of the Senior Secured Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, supplements, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred.
     Without limiting your obligations to assist with the syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that the Initial Lenders’ commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Senior Secured Facilities and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities constitute a condition to the availability of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date. The Lead Arrangers may commence syndication efforts promptly upon the execution of this Commitment Letter and as part of their syndica-

-2-


 

tion efforts, it is their intent to have Lenders commit to the Senior Secured Facilities prior to the Closing Date (subject to the limitations set forth in the preceding paragraph). Until the earlier of (i) the date upon which a Successful Syndication (as defined in the Fee Letter referred to below) of the Senior Secured Facilities is achieved and (ii) the 30th day following the Closing Date (the “Syndication Date”), you agree actively to assist the Lead Arrangers in completing a timely syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to us and you. Such assistance shall include (a) your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any syndication efforts benefit materially from your existing lending and investment banking relationships and the existing lending and investment banking relationships of the Sponsor and to the extent practical and appropriate, the Target’s existing lending and investment banking relationships, (b) direct contact between senior management, certain representatives and certain advisors of you and the Sponsor, on the one hand, and the proposed Lenders, on the other hand, (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to ensure such contact between senior management of the Target, on the one hand, and the proposed Lenders, on the other hand), in all such cases at times and locations mutually agreed upon, (c) your and the Sponsor’s assistance (including the use of commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to assist) in the preparation of the Information Materials (as defined below) and other customary offering and marketing materials to be used in connection with the syndication (including the use of commercially reasonable efforts to provide such material no later than the start of the Syndication Period), (d) using your commercially reasonable efforts to procure, at your expense, prior to the start of the Syndication Period, ratings for the Senior Secured Facilities from each of Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), and a public corporate credit rating and a public corporate family rating in respect of the Company after giving effect to the Transactions from each of S&P and Moody’s, respectively, (e) the hosting, with the Lead Arrangers, of a reasonable number of meetings to be mutually agreed upon of prospective Lenders at times and locations to be mutually agreed upon (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to cause certain officers of the Target to be available for such meetings) and (f) there being no competing issues, offerings, placements or arrangements of debt securities or commercial bank or other credit facilities by or on behalf of you, the Target or any of your or its subsidiaries being offered, placed or arranged (other than the Senior Secured Facilities or any indebtedness of the Target and its subsidiaries permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Purchase Agreement) without the consent of the Lead Arrangers, if such issuance, offering, placement or arrangement would materially impair the primary syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities (it is understood that the Target’s and its subsidiaries’ ordinary course short term working capital facilities and ordinary course capital lease, purchase money and equipment financings will not materially impair the primary syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Commitment Letter or the Fee Letter or any other letter agreement or undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, the obtaining of the ratings referenced above shall not constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date.
     The Lead Arrangers, in their capacities as such, will manage, in consultation with you, all aspects of any syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities, including decisions as to the selection of institutions reasonably acceptable to you (your consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to be approached and when they will be approached, when their commitments will be accepted, which institutions will participate (excluding Disqualified Lenders), the allocation of the commitments among the Lenders and the amount and distribution of fees among the Lenders. To assist the Lead Arrangers in their syndication efforts, you agree to promptly prepare and provide (and to cause the Sponsor to provide and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to provide) to us all customary information with respect to you, the Target and each of your and its respective subsidiaries and the Transactions, including the financial information set forth in Exhibit C, all financial information and projections prepared by you (including financial estimates, forecasts and other forward-looking information, the “Projections”), as the Lead Arrangers may reasonably request in connection with the structuring, arrangement and syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities. For the avoidance of doubt, you will not be required to provide any in-

-3-


 

formation to the extent that the provision thereof would violate any law, rule or regulation, or any obligation of confidentiality binding upon you, the Target or any of your respective affiliates. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the only financial statements that shall be required to be provided to the Commitment Parties in connection with the syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities shall be those required to be delivered pursuant to Exhibit C hereto.
     You hereby acknowledge that (a) the Lead Arrangers will make available Information (as defined below), Projections and other offering and marketing material and presentations, including confidential information memoranda to be used in connection with the syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities (any such memorandum, an “Information Memorandum”, and such Information, Projections, other offering and marketing material and Information Memorandum, collectively, with the Term Sheet, the “Information Materials”) on a confidential basis to the proposed syndicate of Lenders by posting the Information Materials on Intralinks, Debt X, SyndTrak Online or by similar electronic means and (b) certain of the Lenders may be “public side” Lenders (i.e. Lenders that wish to receive only information that (i) is publicly available or (ii) is not material with respect to you, the Target, the Company or your or their respective subsidiaries or securities for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (collectively, the “Public Side Information”)) and who may be engaged in investment and other market related activities with respect to you, the Target, the Company or your or their respective subsidiaries or securities (each, a “Public Sider” and each Lender that is not a Public Sider, a “Private Sider”). You will be solely responsible for the contents of the Information Materials, and the Commitment Parties shall be entitled to use and rely upon the information contained therein without responsibility for independent verification thereof.
     You agree to assist (and to cause the Sponsor to assist and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Target to assist) us in preparing an additional version of the Information Materials to be used in connection with the syndication of the Senior Secured Facilities that includes only Public Side Information with respect to you, the Borrowers, the Target or the Company or any of your or their respective subsidiaries or securities to be used by Public-Siders. It is understood that in connection with your assistance described above, customary authorization letters will be included in any Information Materials that authorize the distribution of the Information Materials to prospective Lenders, represent that the additional version of the Information Materials contains only Public Side Information (other than Information about the Transactions or the Senior Secured Facilities) and exculpate us and our affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use of the contents, and exculpate you and your subsidiaries, the Investors and their respective affiliates and the Target and its subsidiaries, in the event of any unauthorized misuse of the Information Materials or related offering and marketing materials by the recipients thereof. Before distribution of any Information Materials, at our request, you agree to identify that portion of the Information Materials that may be distributed to the Public Siders as “Public Information”, which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof. By marking Information Materials as “PUBLIC”, you shall be deemed to have authorized the Commitment Parties and the proposed Lenders to treat such Information Materials as containing only Public Side Information (it being understood that you shall not be obligated to mark such information as “PUBLIC”). We will not make any materials not marked “PUBLIC” available to Public Siders. You also acknowledge that Public Siders consisting of publishing debt analysts may participate in “bank meetings”; provided that such analysts shall not publish any information obtained from such meetings until the Closing Date (and in any event not in violation of any confidentiality obligations).
     You acknowledge and agree that the following documents, without limitation, may be distributed to both Private Siders and Public Siders, unless you advise the Lead Arrangers in writing (including by email) within a reasonable time prior to their intended distribution that such materials should only be distributed to Private Siders (provided that such materials have been provided to you and your counsel for review a reasonable period of time prior thereto): (a) administrative materials prepared by the Lead Ar-

-4-


 

rangers for prospective Lenders (such as a lender meeting invitation, bank allocation, if any, and funding and closing memoranda), (b) term sheets and notification of changes in the Senior Secured Facilities’ terms and conditions, (c) drafts and final versions of the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation and (d) publicly filed financial statements of the Target and/or its subsidiaries. If you advise us that any of the foregoing items should be distributed only to Private Siders, then the Lead Arrangers will not distribute such materials to Public Siders without your prior consent (which shall not unreasonably be withheld).
     4. Information.
     You hereby represent and warrant that, (a) all written information and written data, other than the Projections and other than information of a general economic or industry specific nature (the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to any Commitment Party directly or indirectly by you or by any of your representatives (including the Sponsor) on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby (which information shall be to the best of your knowledge to the extent it relates to the Target and its businesses), when taken as a whole, is or will be, when furnished, correct in all material respects and does not or will not, when furnished and when taken as a whole, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto) and (b) the Projections that have been or will be made available to any Commitment Party by you or by any of your representatives (including the Sponsor) on your behalf in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been, or will be, prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time prepared and at the time the related Projections are so furnished to the Commitment Parties; it being understood that the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, the Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, that no assurance can be given that any particular Projections will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material. You agree that, if at any time prior to the Syndication Date, you become aware that any of the representations and warranties in the preceding sentence would be incorrect in any material respect if the Information and the Projections were being furnished, and such representations were being made, at such time, then you will (or, with respect to the Information and Projections relating to the Target, will use commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and the Projections such that (with respect to the Information relating to the Target and its subsidiaries, to the best of your knowledge) such representations and warranties are correct in all material respects under those circumstances. In arranging and syndicating the Senior Secured Facilities, each of the Commitment Parties (i) will be entitled to use and rely on the Information and the Projections without responsibility for independent verification thereof and (ii) does not assume responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the Information or the Projections.
     5. Fees.
     As consideration for the commitments of the Initial Lenders hereunder and for the agreement of the Lead Arrangers and the Joint Bookrunners to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay (or cause to be paid) the fees set forth in the Term Sheet and in the Fee Letter dated the date hereof and delivered herewith with respect to the Senior Secured Facilities (the “Fee Letter”). Once paid, such fees shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

ject solely to (a) the conditions set forth in the section entitled “Conditions to Initial Borrowings” in Exhibit B hereto and (b) the conditions set forth in Exhibit C hereto, and upon satisfaction (or waiver by all Commitment Parties) of such conditions, the initial funding of the Senior Secured Facilities shall occur; it being understood that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder, including compliance with the terms of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation, other than those that are expressly stated in the section entitled “Conditions to All Borrowings” in Exhibit B hereto and the conditions set forth in Exhibit C hereto to be conditions to the initial funding under the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date.
     Notwithstanding anything in this Commitment Letter (including each of the exhibits attached hereto), the Fee Letter, the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the only representations relating to you, the Target, the Guarantors, the Company, the Investors, your and their respective subsidiaries and your and their respective businesses the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date shall be (A) such of the representations made by the Target with respect to the Target and its subsidiaries in the Purchase Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders, but only to the extent that you have the right to terminate your obligations under the Purchase Agreement as a result of a breach of such representations in the Purchase Agreement (to such extent, the “Specified Purchase Agreement Representations”) and (B) the Specified Representations (as defined below) made by the Company, the Borrowers and the Guarantors in the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation and (ii) the terms of the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date if the conditions set forth in the section entitled “Conditions to All Borrowings” in Exhibit B hereto and in Exhibit C hereto are satisfied (it being understood that, to the extent any security interest in any Collateral or any Guarantee is not or cannot be provided and/or perfected on the Closing Date (other than (1) the pledge and perfection of the security interests (x) in the equity securities of any U.S. subsidiaries of the Company (to the extent required by Exhibit B) and (y) in other assets with respect to which a lien may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial Code and (2) the providing of Guarantees (to the extent required by Exhibit B) by any U.S. subsidiary of the Company) after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so or without undue burden or expense, then the provision and/or perfection of a security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date, but instead shall be required to be delivered after the Closing Date pursuant to arrangements and timing to be mutually agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Company acting reasonably but in any event no later than (A) 10 days following the Closing Date (or such later date as may be reasonably agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Company) with respect to Brazilian subsidiaries of the Company and (B) 90 days following the Closing Date (or such later date as may be reasonably agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Company) with respect to all other subsidiaries of the Company).

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Commitment Letter, (i) no Indemnified Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through internet, electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent that such damages have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnified Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s affiliates or any of its or their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, advisors or other representatives (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction a final and non-appealable decision) and (ii) none of we, you, the Investors, the Target or any Indemnified Person shall be liable for any indirect, special, punitive or consequential damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings) in connection with this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter, the Transactions (including the Senior Secured Facilities and the use of proceeds thereunder), or with respect to any activities related to the Senior Secured Facilities, including the preparation of this Commitment Letter, the Fee Letter and the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation; provided that nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit your indemnity and reimbursement obligations to the extent set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph.
     You shall not be liable for any settlement of any Proceeding effected without your consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), but if settled with your written consent or if there is a final and non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction for the plaintiff in any such Proceeding, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Person from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 7.

     8. Sharing of Information, Absence of Fiduciary Relationships, Affiliate Activities.

You further acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for making your own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto.

Furthermore, you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims you may have against us or our affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agree that we and our affiliates shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to you in respect of such a fiduciary claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of you, including your stockholders, employees or creditors.

Transaction:
  As set forth in Exhibit A to the Commitment Letter.
 
   
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent:
  JPMCB will act as sole administrative agent and sole collateral agent (in such capacities, the “Administrative Agent”) for a syndicate of banks, financial institutions and other entities reasonably acceptable to Newco and excluding any Disqualified Lender (together with the Initial Lenders, the “Lenders”), and will perform the duties customarily associated with such roles.
 
   
Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners:
  JPMorgan and UBSS will each act as a lead arranger for the Senior Secured Facilities (each a “Lead Arranger” and collectively, the “Lead Arrangers”), JPMorgan and UBSS and will act as joint bookrunners (the “Joint Bookrunners”), and each will perform the duties customarily associated with such roles.
 
   
Syndication Agent:
  UBSS.
 
   
Documentation Agent:
  A financial institution to be designated by Newco and reasonably acceptable to the Lead Arrangers.
 
   
Senior Secured Facilities:
 
(A)   A senior secured first-lien term loan facility (the “Term Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to
 
1   All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning given them in the Commitment Letter to which this Term Sheet is attached, including Exhibit A thereto.

B-1


 

     
 
 
$300 million (the loans thereunder, the “Term Loans”).
 
   
 
 
The Term Loans will be offered with 50 bps of original issue discount or upfront fees on the amount thereof.
 
   
 
 
(B)   A senior secured first-lien “first-out” revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility” and, together with the Term Facility, the “Senior Secured Facilities”) available to any Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $50 million. Lenders with commitments under the Revolving Facility are collectively referred to as “Revolving Lenders” and the loans thereunder, together with (unless the context otherwise requires) the swingline borrowings referred to below, are collectively referred to as “Revolving Loans”; and together with the Term Loans, the “Loans”.
 
   
 
 
The Revolving Facility will be offered with 100 bps of upfront fees on the commitments on the Closing Date.
 
   
Swingline Loans:
  In connection with the Revolving Facility, JPMCB (in such capacity, the “Swingline Lender”) will make available a swingline facility under for short-term borrowings upon same-day notice (in minimum amounts to be mutually agreed upon and integral multiples to be agreed upon) of up to an amount to be agreed. Except for purposes of calculating the commitment fee described below, any such swingline borrowings will reduce availability under the Revolving Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
 
   
 
  Upon notice from the Swingline Lender, the Revolving Lenders will be unconditionally obligated to purchase participations in any swingline loan pro rata based upon their commitments under the Revolving Facility.
 
   
 
  If any Lender becomes a “defaulting Lender”, then the swingline exposure of such defaulting Lender will automatically be reallocated among the non-defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving Facility up to an amount such that the revolving credit exposure of such non-defaulting Lender does not exceed its commitments. In the event such reallocation does not fully cover the exposure of such defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender may require the Borrowers to repay such “uncovered” exposure in respect of the swingline loans and will have no obligation to make new swingline loans during a period where there is an “uncovered” exposure.
 
   
Incremental Facilities:
  The Senior Secured Facilities will permit the Borrowers to add one or more incremental term loan facilities to the Senior Secured Facilities (each, an “Incremental Term Facility”) in an aggregate amount of up to $25.0 million plus an additional unlimited amount if, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the

B-2


 

     
 
  incurrence of any such Incremental Term Facility (and after giving effect to any acquisition consummated simultaneously therewith and all other appropriate pro forma adjustment events), the ratio of Consolidated Secured Net Debt to Consolidated EBITDA (the “Secured Net Leverage Ratio”) (as such terms are defined in Annex II hereto modified as reasonably agreed (1) to more accurately reflect the business and financial accounting of the Company and (2) to clarify or address technical clarification) is equal to or less than 2.50:1.00; provided that:
 
   
 
 
(i)    no existing Lender will be required to participate in any such Incremental Term Facility without its consent,
 
   
 
 
(ii)   event of default under the Senior Secured Facilities would exist after giving effect thereto,
 
   
 
 
(iii)  any such Incremental Term Facility shall be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu or junior basis with the Loans (pursuant to a customary intercreditor agreement),
 
   
 
 
(iv)  the maturity date of any such Incremental Term Facility shall be no earlier than the maturity date of the Term Facility and the weighted average life of such Incremental Term Facility shall be not shorter than the then remaining weighted average life of the Term Facility,
 
   
 
 
(v)   the interest rate margins, rate floors, fees, premiums and funding discounts and (subject to clause (iv)) maturity and amortization schedule applicable to any Incremental Term Facility shall be determined by the Company and the Lenders thereunder; provided, that in the event that the “yield” for any Incremental Term Facility implemented prior to the second anniversary of the Closing Date is higher than the yield for the Term Facility by more than 50 basis points, then the “yield” for the Term Facility shall be increased to the extent necessary so that such “yield” is equal to the “yield” for such Incremental Term Facility, minus 50 basis points; provided, further, that, in determining the yield applicable to the Term Facility and any Incremental Term Facility (a) applicable margin, original issue discount (“OID”) or upfront fees (which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of OID) payable by the Borrowers to the Lenders under the Term Facility or any Incremental Term Facility in the initial primary syndication thereof shall be included (with OID and upfront fees being equated to interest based on assumed four-year life to maturity) and any customary arrangement or commitment fees paid to the arrangers thereof shall not be included and (b) any Adjusted LIBOR “floor” applicable to the Term Facility or any Incremental Term Facility shall be equated to “yield” to

B-3


 

     
 
 
the extent such floor would have the effect of increasing Adjusted LIBOR on the Term Facility or such Incremental Term Facility at the time such Incremental Term Facility is implemented, and
 
   
 
 
(vi)  any Incremental Term Facility shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation to be determined; provided that, to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with the Term Facility (except to the extent permitted by clauses (iv) and (v) above), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
 
   
 
  The Borrowers may (but are not obligated to) seek commitments in respect of the Incremental Term Facility from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders or investors who will become Lenders in connection therewith (“Additional Lenders”); provided that the Administrative Agent shall have consent rights (not to be unreasonably withheld) with respect to such Additional Lender, if such consent would be required under the heading “Assignments and Participations” for an assignment of loans or commitments, as applicable, to such Additional Lender.
 
   
Refinancing Facilities:
  The Senior Secured Facilities Documentation will permit the Borrowers to refinance loans under the Term Facility or commitments under the Revolving Facility or loans or commitments under any Incremental Term Facility from time to time, in whole or part, with one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”) or new revolving credit facility (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Facility”; the Refinancing Term Facilities and the Refinancing Revolving Facilities are collectively referred to as “Refinancing Facilities”), respectively, under the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation with the consent of the Administrative Agent and the institutions providing such Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Revolving Facility or with one or more series of senior unsecured notes or loans or senior secured notes that will be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Senior Secured Facilities or second lien secured notes or loans that will be secured on a subordinated basis (subject to customary intercreditor agreements) to the Senior Secured Facilities (and such notes or loans, “Refinancing Notes”); provided that (i) any Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Notes does not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, loans under the Term Facility being refinanced, or, with respect to Refinancing Notes, have any mandatory prepayment provision that could result in prepayment thereof prior to the loans under the Term Facility being refinanced (other than customary change of control and asset sale offer provisions), (ii) any Refinancing Revolving Facility does not mature prior to the maturity date of the revolving

B-4


 

     
 
  commitments being refinanced and (iii) the other terms and conditions of such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes (excluding pricing terms (including any pricing “MFN” provision) and optional prepayment or redemption terms) are substantially identical to, or less favorable to the investors providing such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes, as applicable, than, those applicable to the Term Facility or revolving commitments being refinanced (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest final maturity date of the Term Facility and revolving credit commitments existing at the time of such refinancing).
 
   
Purpose:
 
(A)   The proceeds of borrowings under the Term Facility will be used by the Borrowers on the Closing Date along with the proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Facility (subject to the limitation set forth below under “Availability”), the Equity Contribution and cash on hand at the Company, solely to pay the Acquisition Costs.
 
   
 
 
(B)   The letters of credit and proceeds of Revolving Loans will be used by the Borrowers and their subsidiaries for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including the financing of permitted acquisitions, and to finance a portion of the Acquisition Costs.

(A)   The Term Facility will be available in a single drawing on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under the Term Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.
 
   
 
 
(B)   The Revolving Facility (exclusive of letter of credit usage) will be made available on the Closing Date to finance a portion of the Acquisition Costs, which portion shall include, in any event, an amount sufficient to fund any OID or upfront fees required to be funded on the Closing Date; provided that the Company and its restricted subsidiaries would have at least $75 million of unrestricted cash on hand and borrowing availability under the Revolving Facility after giving effect thereto. Additionally, letters of credit in an amount to be mutually agreed upon may be issued on the Closing Date in order to, among other things, backstop or replace letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date under facilities no longer available to the Company or its subsidiaries as of the Closing Date. Otherwise, letters of credit and Revolving Loans will be available after the Closing Date and at any time prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Facility, in minimum principal amounts to be

B-5


 

     
 
 
mutually agreed upon. Amounts repaid under the Revolving Facility may be reborrowed.
 
   
Interest Rates and Fees:
  As set forth on Annex I hereto.
 
   
Default Rate:
  With respect to overdue principal, the applicable interest rate plus 2.00% per annum, and with respect to any other overdue amount (including overdue interest), the interest rate applicable to ABR loans (as defined in Annex I) plus 2.00% per annum and in each case, shall be payable on demand.
 
   
Letters of Credit:
  An aggregate amount to be agreed upon of the Revolving Facility will be available to the Borrowers for the purpose of issuing letters of credit. Letters of credit under the Revolving Facility will be issued by JPMCB, UBS and/or other Lenders reasonably acceptable to the Company and the Administrative Agent (each an “Issuing Bank”). Each letter of credit shall expire not later than the earlier of (a) 12 months after its date of issuance and (b) the fifth business day prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Facility; provided that any letter of credit may provide for renewal thereof for additional periods of up to 12 months (which in no event shall extend beyond the date referred to in clause (b) above), except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank. The face amount of any outstanding letter of credit (and, without duplication, any unpaid drawing in respect thereof) issued under the Revolving Facility will reduce availability under the Revolving Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
 
   
 
  Drawings under any letter of credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrowers (whether with its own funds or with the proceeds of loans under the Revolving Facility) within one business day after notice of such drawing is received by the Company from the relevant Issuing Bank. The Revolving Lenders will be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to acquire participations in each letter of credit, pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving Facility, and to fund such participations in the event the Borrowers do not reimburse an Issuing Bank for drawings within the time period specified above.
 
   
 
  If any Lender becomes a “defaulting Lender”, then the Revolving Facility letter of credit exposure of such defaulting Lender will automatically be reallocated among the non-defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with their commitments under the Revolving Facility up to an amount such that the revolving credit exposure of such non-defaulting Lender does not exceed its commitments. In the event that such reallocation does not fully cover the exposure of such defaulting Lender, the applicable Issuing Bank may require the Borrowers to cash collateralize such “uncovered” exposure in respect of each outstanding letter of credit and will have no obligation to issue new letters of credit,

B-6


 

     
 
  or to extend, renew or amend existing letters of credit to the extent revolving credit exposure would exceed the commitments of the non-defaulting Lenders, unless such “uncovered” exposure is cash collateralized to the Issuing Bank’s reasonable satisfaction.
 
   
Final Maturity and Amortization:
  (A)    Term Facility
 
   
 
  The Term Facility will mature on the date that is seven years after the Closing Date and will amortize in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the original principal amount of such Term Facility, with the balance payable on the seventh anniversary of the Closing Date; provided that the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation shall provide the right for individual Lenders to agree to extend the maturity date of their outstanding Term Loans upon the request of the Company and without the consent of any other Lender.
 
   
 
  (B)    Revolving Facility
 
   
 
  The Revolving Facility will mature, and lending commitments thereunder will terminate, on the date that is five years after the Closing Date; provided that the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation shall provide the right of individual Lenders to agree to extend the maturity of their Revolving Commitments upon the request of the Company and without the consent of any other Lender.
 
   
Guarantees:
  Subject to the Certain Funds Provisions, all obligations of the Borrowers (the “Borrower Obligations”) under the Senior Secured Facilities and under any interest rate protection or other swap or hedging arrangements or cash management arrangements entered into with a Lender, the Administrative Agent or any affiliate of a Lender or the Administrative Agent at the time such transaction is entered into (“Hedging /Cash Management Arrangements”) will be unconditionally guaranteed jointly and severally on a senior secured first-lien basis (the “Guarantees”) by Holdings and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect wholly-owned restricted subsidiary of the Company that is not a Borrower (the “Guarantors”), provided that Guarantors shall not include, (a) unrestricted subsidiaries, (b) immaterial subsidiaries (to be defined in a mutually acceptable manner as to individual and aggregate revenues or assets excluded), (c) any subsidiary that is prohibited by any contractual obligation existing on the Closing Date or on the date any such subsidiary is acquired (so long as such prohibition was not incurred in contemplation of such acquisition) or by applicable law, rule or regulation from guaranteeing the Senior Secured Facilities or which would require governmental (including regulatory) consent, approval, license or authorization to provide a Guarantee unless such consent, approval, license or authorization

B-7


 

     
 
  has been received and (d) any subsidiary to the extent providing a Guarantee would result in a material adverse tax consequence to the Company or one of its subsidiaries (including as a result of the operation of Section 956 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or any similar law or regulation in any applicable jurisdiction) as reasonably determined by the Company with the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
 
   
 
  Notwithstanding the foregoing, subsidiaries may be excluded from the guarantee requirements in circumstances where the Company and the Administrative Agent reasonably agree that the cost of providing such a guarantee is excessive in relation to the value afforded thereby.
 
   
 
  Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the Certain Fund Provisions, the Brazilian subsidiaries of the Company shall become Guarantors.
 
   
Security:
  Subject to the limitations set forth below in this section and subject to the Certain Funds Provisions, the Borrower Obligations, the Guarantees and the Hedging/Cash Management Arrangements will be secured by: (a) a perfected pledge of the equity securities of the Company and of each direct, wholly-owned restricted subsidiary of the Company and of each other Borrower and subsidiary Guarantor and (b) perfected, security interests in, and mortgages on, substantially all tangible and intangible personal property and material fee-owned real property of the Borrowers and each subsidiary Guarantor (including but not limited to accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, general intangibles (including contract rights), investment property, intellectual property, material intercompany notes and proceeds of the foregoing) (the items described in clauses (a) and (b) above, but excluding the Excluded Assets (as defined below), collectively, the “Collateral”).
 
   
 
  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Collateral shall exclude the following: (i) any fee-owned real property with a fair market value of less than an amount to be agreed (with all required mortgages being permitted to be delivered post-closing), (ii) all leasehold interests (and there shall be no requirement to deliver landlord lien waivers, estoppels and collateral access letters), (iii) motor vehicles and other assets subject to certificates of title, letter of credit rights with a value of less than an amount to be agreed and commercial tort claims with a value of less than an amount to be agreed (except to the extent such security interest may be perfected by UCC filings), (iv) pledges and security interests prohibited by applicable law, rule or regulation; (v) equity interests in any person other than wholly owned restricted subsidiaries to the extent not permitted by the terms of such subsidiary’s organizational or joint venture documents; (vi) assets

B-8


 

     
 
  (including any capital stock or other equity interests) to the extent a security interest in such assets would result in material adverse tax consequences (including as a result of the operation of Section 956 of the Code or any similar law or regulation in any applicable jurisdiction) as reasonably determined by the Company and with the consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (vii) any lease, license or other agreement or any property subject to a purchase money security interest or similar arrangement to the extent that a grant of a security interest therein would violate or invalidate such lease, license or agreement or purchase money arrangement or create a right of termination in favor of any other party thereto (other than the Company or any of its restricted subsidiaries) after giving effect to the applicable anti-assignment provisions of the Uniform Commercial Code, other than proceeds and receivables thereof, the assignment of which is expressly deemed effective under the Uniform Commercial Code notwithstanding such prohibition, (viii) any “intent to use” trademark applications, (ix) those assets as to which the Administrative Agent and the Company reasonably agree that the cost of obtaining such a security interest or perfection thereof are excessive in relation to the benefit to the Lenders of the security to be afforded thereby and (x) other exceptions to be mutually agreed upon (the foregoing described in clauses (i) through (x) are, collectively, the “Excluded Assets”). In addition, in no event shall control agreements or control or similar arrangements be required with respect to deposit or securities accounts or commodities accounts.
 
   
 
  The Revolving Facility shall be a “first-out” facility (i.e. the Revolving Facility will have waterfall priority over the Term Facility with respect to realization on Collateral and Guarantees).
 
   
 
  All the above-described pledges, security interests and mortgages shall be created on terms to be set forth in the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation; and none of the Collateral shall be subject to other pledges, security interests or mortgages (except customary permitted liens and other, exceptions and baskets to be set forth in the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation).
 
   
Mandatory Prepayments:
  Loans under the Term Facility shall be prepaid with:
 
   
 
 
(A)   commencing with the first full fiscal year of the Company to occur after the Closing Date, 50% of Excess Cash Flow (such term to be defined in a manner consistent with the Precedent Documentation taking into account the Documentation Considerations), with step-downs to 25% upon achievement of a Secured Net Leverage Ratio equal to or less than 2.00: 1.00 and to 0% upon achievement of a Secured Net Leverage Ratio equal to or less than 1.50:1.00; provided that, in any fiscal year, any voluntary prepayments of loans under the Term Facility

B-9


 

     
 
 
and loans under the Revolving Facility to the extent commitments thereunder are permanently reduced by the amount of such prepayments, made during such fiscal year or after year end and prior to the time such Excess Cash Flow prepayment is due other than prepayments funded with the proceeds of incurrences of indebtedness or equity, shall be credited against excess cash flow prepayment obligations on a dollar-for-dollar basis for such fiscal year;
 
   
 
 
(B)   100% of the net cash proceeds (which will be defined to exclude, amongst other things, the amount of any required tax distribution that Holdings and/or the Company may be required to make as a result of such sale or disposition) of all non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property by the Company and its restricted subsidiaries (including insurance and condemnation proceeds and sale leaseback proceeds) in excess of an amount to be agreed and subject to the right of the Company to reinvest 100% of such proceeds, if such proceeds are reinvested (or committed to be reinvested) within 12 months and, if so committed to be reinvested, so long as such reinvestment is actually completed within 180 days after such 12 month period, and other exceptions to be set forth in the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation; and
 
   
 
 
(C)   100% of the net cash proceeds of issuances of debt obligations of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries after the Closing Date (other than debt permitted under the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation other than Refinancing Facilities and Refinancing Notes).
 
   
 
  Mandatory prepayments shall be applied, without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement of the Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Adjusted LIBOR borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period, to the Term Facility on a pro rata basis among the Term Facility and to scheduled installments of principal of the Term Facility in direct order of maturity.
 
   
 
  Any Lender may elect not to accept its pro rata portion of any mandatory prepayment (each a “Declining Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by a Declining Lender, may be retained by the Company.
 
   
 
  The loans under the Revolving Facility shall be prepaid and the letters of credit cash collateralized to the extent such extensions of credit exceed the amount of the commitments under the Revolving Facility.

B-10


 

     
 
  Prepayments from subsidiaries’ Excess Cash Flow and asset sale proceeds will be limited under the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation to the extent such prepayments would be prohibited by law or would result in material adverse tax consequences.
 
   
Voluntary Prepayments and Reductions in Commitments:
  Voluntary reductions of the unutilized portion of the Revolving Facility commitments and voluntary prepayments of borrowings under the Senior Secured Facilities will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts to be agreed upon, without premium or penalty, subject to reimbursement of the Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of Adjusted LIBOR borrowings other than on the last day of the relevant interest period.
 
   
 
  All voluntary prepayments of the Term Facility and any Incremental Term Facility will be applied to the remaining amortization payments under such Term Facility or such Incremental Term Facility, as applicable, and may be applied to any Term Facility or any Incremental Term Facility, in any case, as directed by the Company (and absent such direction, in direct order of maturity thereof).
 
   
Documentation:
  The definitive documentation for the Senior Secured Facilities (the “Senior Secured Facilities Documentation”) will be based on that certain Credit Agreement dated as of November 19, 2009 among Skype Global Sarl, Springboard Finance L.L.C., the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and related security, collateral and guarantee agreements executed and/or delivered in connection therewith, in each case, as amended and in effect on the date hereof (collectively, the “Precedent Documentation”), and will contain only those conditions to borrowing, representations, warranties, covenants and events of default expressly set forth in this Term Sheet, together with other customary loan document provisions and other terms and provisions to be mutually agreed upon (it being understood and agreed that only the terms expressly set forth herein are being committed to), the definitive terms of which will be negotiated in good faith (including as to operational requirements of the Company and its subsidiaries in light of their industries, businesses and business practices), and shall be consistent with this Term Sheet (it being understood and agreed that such Precedent Documentation may be modified (i) for operational and other similar agency provisions, (ii) to more accurately reflect the Company’s financial accounting or to address technical matters, (iii) to reflect any exercise of “market flex” under the Fee Letter and (iv) giving effect to then prevailing market conditions in connection with the syndication of similar top-tier sponsor led transactions of this type) (collectively, the “Documentation Considerations”).

  In addition, the negative covenants shall include an “Available Amount Basket”, which shall mean a cumulative amount equal to (without duplication) (a) 50% of Consolidated Net Income (as

B-15


 

     
 
  defined in Annex II modified as reasonably agreed (1) to more accurately reflect the business and financial accounting of the Company and (2) to clarify or address technical clarifications) of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries from the Closing Date, plus (b) the net cash proceeds of new equity issuances of the Company (other than disqualified stock), plus (c) capital contributions received by the Company after the Closing Date in cash or cash equivalents (other than in respect of any Specified Equity Contribution (as defined below) or any disqualified stock), plus (d) dividends or other distributions or returns on capital received by the Company or any restricted subsidiary from an unrestricted subsidiary, plus (e) the net cash proceeds of a sale of any unrestricted subsidiary (including the issuance of stock of an unrestricted subsidiary) received by the Company or any restricted subsidiary.

Financial Maintenance Covenants:
  With respect to the Term Facility: None.
 
   
 
  With respect to the Revolving Facility:
 
   
 
  Limited to a springing maximum Secured Net Leverage Ratio set at 4.35 to 1.00; provided that such ratio shall be adjusted upwards to the extent the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Senior Secured Facilities on the Closing Date exceeds $300 million as a result of the exercise of “market flex” under the Fee Letter in order to reflect the same 35% cushion to Consolidated EBITDA assumed in the calculation of such ratio (which, for avoidance of doubt, is $88.3 million) and with no step-downs over time (the “Revolver Financial Covenant”).
 
   
 
  The Revolver Financial Covenant will be tested (i) at the time any Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans are drawn upon or letters of credits issued under the Revolving Facility (if after giving effect to such letter of credit there would be more than $1.0 million of letters of credit outstanding that are not cash collateralized) and (ii) quarterly and only if on the last day of a fiscal quarter any Revolving Loans or more than $1.0 million of letters of credit are outstanding under the Revolving Facility (but not including any cash collateralized letter of credit exposure).
 
   
 
  For purposes of determining compliance with the Revolver Financial Covenant, any cash equity contribution (which shall be common equity or otherwise in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) made to the Company after the beginning of the relevant fiscal quarter and on or prior to the day that is 10 days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for such fiscal quarter will, at the request

B-16


 

     
 
  of the Company, be included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with the Revolver Financial Covenant at the end of such fiscal quarter and applicable subsequent periods which include such fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution so included in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA, a “Specified Equity Contribution”); provided that (a) in each four fiscal quarter period, there shall be at least two fiscal quarters in respect of which no Specified Equity Contribution is made, (b) the amount of any Specified Equity Contribution shall be no greater than the amount required to cause the Company to be in pro forma compliance with the Revolver Financial Covenant for the relevant fiscal quarter, (c) all Specified Equity Contributions shall be disregarded for purposes of determining any baskets with respect to the covenants contained in the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation, (d) there shall be a maximum of five Specified Equity Contributions over the life of the Revolving Facility and (e) there shall be no pro forma reduction in indebtedness with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution or increase in cash used in calculating the Secured Net Leverage Ratio with any such proceeds.
 
   
Unrestricted Subsidiaries:
  The Senior Secured Facilities Documentation will contain provisions pursuant to which, subject to limitations on loans, advances, guarantees and other investments in, unrestricted subsidiaries, the Company will be permitted to designate any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary as an “unrestricted subsidiary” and subsequently re-designate any such unrestricted subsidiary as a restricted subsidiary so long as, after giving effect to any such designation or re-designation, no event of default is continuing. Unrestricted subsidiaries will not be subject to the representation and warranties, affirmative or negative covenant or event of default provisions of the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation and the results of operations and indebtedness of unrestricted subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of determining compliance with the Revolver Financial Covenant or the calculation of any financial ratio required by the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation.
 
   
Events of Default:
  Limited to the following (to be applicable to Holdings, the Company and its restricted subsidiaries only): nonpayment of principal when due; nonpayment of interest or other amounts after a customary five business day grace period; violation of covenants (subject, in the case of certain of such covenants, to a thirty day grace period and a 10-day equity cure grace period with respect to the Revolver Financial Covenant); incorrectness of representations and warranties in any material respect; cross default and cross acceleration to material indebtedness; bankruptcy or other insolvency events of Holdings, the Company, any Borrower or a material restricted subsidiary (with a customary grace period for involuntary events); material monetary judgments; ERISA events; actual or asserted invalidity of material guarantees or

B-17


 

     
 
  security documents; and change of control (to include a pre- and post-initial public offering provision).
 
   
 
  A default with respect to Revolver Financial Covenant shall not give rise to a cross default under the Term Facility and the Lenders under the Term Facility will not be permitted to exercise any remedies with respect to an uncured breach of the Revolver Financial Covenant.
 
   
Voting:
  Amendments and waivers of the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation will require the approval of Lenders (excluding any defaulting Lenders) holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of the loans and commitments under the Senior Secured Facilities (with customary limitations with respect to loans held by the Sponsor or other affiliates of the Company) (the “Required Lenders”), except that (i) the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby shall be required with respect to:
 
  (A) increases in the commitment of such Lender, (B) reductions of principal, interest or fees and (C) extensions of scheduled amortization, fee or interest payments or final maturity, (ii) the consent of 100% of the Lenders will be required with respect to (A) modifications to any of the voting percentages and (B) releases of all or substantially all Guarantors or releases of all or substantially all of the Collateral, (iii) customary protections for the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank will be provided, (iv) changes altering the “first out” waterfall priority status of the Revolving Facility shall require the approval of Lenders holding 100% of the aggregate amount of Loans and commitments under the Revolving Facility and (v) changes adversely affecting the rights to payment of one class of term or revolving Lenders differently from any other class of term or revolving, as the case may be, Lenders will require the consent of more than 50% of the aggregate amount of loans and commitments of the adversely affected class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amendments and waivers of the Revolver Financial Covenant or its component definitions will require only the approval of Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate amount of Loans and commitments under the Revolving Facility.
 
   
 
  For the avoidance of doubt, the Senior Secured Facilities Documentation may be amended in order to modify any provision relating to pro rata sharing of payments among the Lenders with the consent of Lenders holding more than 50% of the advances and commitments under the directly and adversely affected facility whose payments are being amended. In the event that any provision relating to pro rata sharing of payments among the Lenders is modified in favor of any class of Lenders holding loans with a maturity date longer than the maturity date of any other class of loans, a majority vote of the class of Lenders under

B-18


 

     
 
  the Senior Secured Facilities directly and adversely affected thereby shall be required.
 
   
 
  The Senior Secured Facilities Documentation shall contain customary provisions for replacing defaulting Lenders, replacing Lenders claiming increased costs, tax gross ups and similar required indemnity payments and replacing non-consenting Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders directly affected thereby so long as Lenders holding at least 50% of the aggregate amount of the loans and commitments under the Senior Secured Facilities shall have consented thereto.

Interest Rates:
  The interest rates under the Senior Secured Facilities will be as follows:
 
   
 
  At the option of the Borrowers, initially, Adjusted LIBOR plus 4.50% or ABR plus 3.50%.
 
   
 
  All swingline loans will be ABR loans.
 
   
 
  From and after the delivery by the Company to the Administrative Agent of the Company’s financial statements for the first full fiscal quarter of the Company completed after the Closing Date, if the Secured Net Leverage Ratio is less than or equal to 2.25 to 1.00, the interest rates with respect to the Revolving Facility shall step down to Adjusted LIBOR plus 4.25% or ABR plus 3.25%, respectively.
 
   
 
  Senior Secured Facilities
 
   
 
  The Borrowers may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months (or, if agreed by all relevant Lenders, 9 or 12 months or less than one month) for Adjusted LIBOR borrowings.
 
   
 
  Calculation of interest shall be on the basis of the actual days elapsed in a year of 360 days (or 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, in the case of ABR loans).
 
   
 
  Interest shall be payable in arrears (a) for loans accruing interest at a rate based on Adjusted LIBOR, at the end of each interest period and, for interest periods of greater than 3 months, every three months, and on the applicable maturity date and (b) for loans accruing interest based on the ABR, quarterly in arrears and on the applicable maturity date.
 
   
 
  ABR is the Alternate Base Rate, which is the highest of (i) the prime commercial lending rate published by the Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate”, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 1/2 of 1.0% and (iii) the one-month Adjusted LIBOR rate (taking into account the “floor”) plus 1.0% per annum.
 
   
 
  Adjusted LIBOR is the London interbank offered rate for dollars, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements.
 
   
 
  There shall be a minimum Adjusted LIBOR (i.e. Adjusted LIBOR prior to adding any applicable interest rate margins thereto) requirement of 1.25% per annum.

B-I-1


 

     
Letter of Credit Fee:
  A per annum fee equal to the spread over Adjusted LIBOR under the Revolving Facility will accrue on the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit under the Revolving Facility, payable in arrears at the end of each quarter and upon the termination of the respective letter of credit, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. Such fees shall be distributed to the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Lender’s Revolving Facility commitment, with exceptions for defaulting Lenders. In addition, the Borrowers shall pay to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, (a) a fronting fee equal to a percentage per annum to be agreed upon of the aggregate face amount of outstanding letters of credit, payable in arrears at the end of each quarter and upon the termination of the Revolving Facility, calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year, and (b) customary issuance and administration fees.
 
   
Commitment Fees:
  The Borrowers shall pay a commitment fee of 0.50% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Facility, payable quarterly in arrears commencing with the Closing Date, calculated based upon the actual number of days elapsed over a 360-day year. Such fees shall be distributed to the Revolving Lenders pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Lender’s Revolving Facility commitment, with exceptions for defaulting Lenders.

          This Solvency Certificate (this “Certificate”) is delivered pursuant to Section [          ] of the Credit Agreement, dated as of [          ](as amended as of the date hereof, and as it may be further amended, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among [          ] (the “Company”), the lending institutions from time to time parties thereto and [          ], as the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Certificate shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.
          I, [          ], the Chief Financial Officer of the Company, on behalf of the Company and not in my individual capacity, DO HEREBY CERTIFY on behalf of the Company that I have made such investigation and inquiries as to the financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries as I have deemed necessary and prudent for the purposes of providing this Certificate. I acknowledge that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are relying on the truth and accuracy of this Certificate in connection with the making of Loans under the Credit Agreement. I further certify that the financial information, projections and assumptions which underlie and form the basis for the representations made in this Certificate were made in good faith and were based on assumptions reasonably believed by the Company to be fair in light of the circumstances existing at the time made and continue to be fair as of the date hereof. I further certify, as of the date hereof, after giving effect to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement including the making of the Loans under the Credit Agreement on the date hereof, and after giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans:
          1. The sum of the debt (including contingent liabilities) of Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, does not exceed the present fair saleable value of the present assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis.
          2. The capital of the Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not unreasonably small in relation to their business as contemplated on the date hereof.
          3. The Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, have not incurred and do not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, debts including current obligations, beyond their ability to pay such debts as they become due (whether at maturity or otherwise).
          4. The present fair saleable value of the present assets of the Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of their debts (including contingent liabilities) as such debts become absolute and matured.
          4. The Company and the Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are “solvent” within the meaning given to that term and similar terms under applicable laws relating to fraudulent transfers and conveyances.
          5. For purposes of this Certificate, the amount of any contingent liability has been computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing as of the date hereof, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespec-

Definition of Material Adverse Effect
          “Material Adverse Effect” means any change, effect, event or occurrence that (A) has a material adverse effect on the business, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of the Company and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole or (B) prevents or materially delays the Company from performing its obligations under the Purchase Agreement in any material respect; provided, however, that no change, effect, event or occurrence to the extent arising or resulting from any of the following, either alone or in combination, shall constitute or be taken into account in determining whether there has been a Material Adverse Effect: (i) (A) general economic, financial, political, capital market, credit market, or financial market conditions or (B) general conditions affecting any of the industries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries operate; (ii) changes in Law or changes in GAAP or accounting standards, in either case, occurring after the date hereof; (iii) any natural disasters, pandemics or acts of war (whether or not declared), sabotage or terrorism, or an escalation or worsening thereof; (iv) the entry into, announcement or performance of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including compliance with the covenants set forth herein (other than Section 5.1(a) of the Purchase Agreement), and the impact thereof on relationships, contractual or otherwise, with customers, suppliers, distributors, partners, employees or regulators, or any shareholder litigation arising from allegations of breach of fiduciary duty relating to the Purchase Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, except that this clause (iv) shall not apply with respect to the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.4 of the Purchase Agreement (v) any changes in the price or trading volume of the Common Stock (provided that the underlying change, effect, event or occurrence that caused or contributed to such change in market price or trading volume shall not be excluded); (vi) any failure by the Company to meet projections or forecasts (provided that the underlying change, effect, event or occurrence that caused or contributed to such failure to meet projections or forecasts shall not be excluded); and (vii) any change or prospective change in the Company’s credit rating (provided that the underlying change, effect, event or occurrence that caused or contributed to such change or prospective change in the Company’s credit rating shall not be excluded); provided, further, however, that the change, effect, event or occurrence referred to in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) shall be excluded pursuant to such clause only to the extent such change, effect, event or occurrence does not adversely affect the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, disproportionately to other companies operating in the industries in which the Company and its Subsidiaries compete (in which case the incremental disproportionate impact or impacts may be taken into account in determining whether there has been, or is reasonably likely to be, a Material Adverse Effect).
          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Commitment Letter, each capitalized term in the above definition (other than Purchase Agreement) shall have the meaning assigned to such term in the Purchase Agreement.
