THIS LOAN AND AIRCRAFT SECURITY AGREEMENT (S/N 9245) (together with all Addenda, Riders and Annexes hereto, this “Agreement”) is dated as of August 7, 2013 (the “Closing Date”), by and between WWE JET SERVICES, INC. (“Borrower”), and RBS ASSET FINANCE, INC. (“Lender”) Definitions for capitalized and certain other terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement and certain rules of Interpretation are provided in Annex A attached hereto.
In consideration of the mutual agreements contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:
SECTION 1.TERMS OF LOAN.

Borrower shall use the proceeds of the Loan to finance or refinance the costs of the acquisition of the Aircraft and to pay for Lender approved refurbishment and upgrades to the Aircraft. The Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loan shall be evidenced by one or more promissory notes dated on and/or after the Closing Date, payable by Borrower to the order of Lender in the original principal amount of the Loan (the “Note”). The Loan shall bear interest and be repaid (and to the extent so permitted or required, prepaid) by Borrower at the times, in the manner, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Note and, if applicable, herein.
SECTION 2.    SECURITY INTEREST. As collateral security for the prompt and complete payment and performance as and when due of all of the Obligations, and in order to induce Lender to enter into this Agreement and make the Loan to Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof, Borrower hereby grants, pledges and assigns to Lender a first priority security interest, collateral assignment, international interest, and security assignment in, against, under and with respect to (the “Lender’s Lien”) all of Borrower’s right, title and interest in, to and under all of the following collateral, whether now existing or hereafter acquired (collectively, the “Collateral”): (i) the Aircraft, including the Airframe, the Engines, each of the APU and Parts, and the Records; (ii) the Registration Certificate; (iii) any and all present and future Third Party Agreements; (iv) any and all other associated rights secured by or associated with the Airframe or the Engines, together with any related international interests and prospective international interests; (v) any collateral described in the other Loan Documents (including in any Operating Consent); and (vi) all proceeds of the foregoing. By way of clarification and not limitation, the foregoing grant of the Lender’s Lien shall include, as applicable (and in each case, being validly registered and having first priority), an international interest in the Airframe and in each Engine. By accepting the foregoing grant, Lender is not assuming, nor shall it be responsible for, any obligations, liabilities or duties of any kind whatsoever of Borrower or of any other Person relating to the Collateral. Borrower agrees that it shall perform and procure performance in accordance with any Third Party Agreement or other agreement or instrument giving rise to any associated rights that are or may become subjected to the Lender’s Lien.

Lender to be covered by the Required Coverages (which, may be maintained by an Interested Third Party, if conforming to the requirements of the Loan Documents), and entering into or delivering, or causing to be entered into and delivered, an Operating Consent, together with all such other documents, filings and assurances, making or causing to be made such filings and registrations, and taking or causing to be taken all such other actions, in each case as may be required by Lender and (B) paying or reimbursing Lender for any related costs or expenses. (v) Lender shall have the right, but not the obligation, to require reasonable evidence that any Interested Third Party satisfies the requirements provided herein, and review any such Third Party Agreement, as from time to time supplemented and amended, to determine its conformity with the provisions of the Loan Documents, but without assuming any responsibility with respect thereto. (vi) Borrower shall neither make, nor permit to be made, any filing or registration with respect to any Permitted Third Party Agreement, unless required by Applicable Law or so directed by Lender pursuant to Section 5.2 or otherwise.

The Aircraft at all times will be operated by duly qualified pilots having satisfied all Applicable Standards.
(a)    Borrower may operate the Aircraft worldwide, provided that the Aircraft (i) shall at all times be based and predominantly used, operated and located in the continental United States; and (ii) shall not be flown, operated, used or located in, to or over any such country or area (temporarily or otherwise) (A) that is excluded from the Required Coverages (or specifically not covered by such insurance), (B) listed as a sanctioned country by the United States under http://treasury.gov/about/organizational-structure/offices/Pages/Office-of-Foreign-Assets-Control.aspx, (C) in any area of recognized hostilities, (D) if as a result thereof, payment under the Required Coverages could be prohibited under any sanction or embargo by the United States of America, or (E) in violation of any of the Loan Documents or any Applicable Standards.

(b)    Borrower agrees that, with respect to the Airframe, the Engines, each APU and each Part, Borrower will at its own expense, (i) maintain, inspect, service, repair, overhaul and test the same in accordance with Applicable Standards; (ii) make any alterations or modifications that may at any time be required to comply with Applicable Standards; (iii) and to cause the Aircraft to remain airworthy; (iv) furnish all required parts, replacements, mechanisms, devices and servicing so that the condition and operating efficiency thereof will at all times be no less than its condition and operating efficiency as and when delivered to Borrower, ordinary wear and tear from proper use alone excepted; (v) promptly replace all Parts which become worn out, lost, stolen, taken, destroyed, damaged beyond repair or permanently rendered or declared unfit for use for any reason whatsoever, or sooner if required by any applicable life limits or other Applicable Standards; and (vi) maintain in English all Records in accordance with Applicable Standards.

(LOAN AGREEMENT (S/N 9245)

Upon Lender’s receipt in good and indefeasible funds of all of the amounts required to be paid pursuant to the preceding sentence (whether by applying Borrower’s payment of such amounts, or any such insurance proceeds, or both) the Aircraft shall be released from the Lender’s Lien, and Lender shall remit to Borrower any such insurance proceeds so received by Lender, to the extent then remaining.
(b)    Upon an Event of Loss with respect to an Engine or any APU (as applicable, a “Lost Item”) under circumstances in which there has not occurred an Event of Loss with respect to the Airframe, Borrower shall, within ninety (90) days after the occurrence of such Event of Loss, replace such Lost Item, with a Permitted Replacement. Any engine or auxiliary power unit constituting a “Permitted Replacement” for a Lost Item shall (i) be of the same make and model number as the Lost Item, (ii) be free and clear of all Liens and (iii) have a value, utility and useful life at least equal to, and be in as good an operating condition as, the Lost Item, assuming such Lost Item was in the condition and repair required by the terms hereof immediately prior to the occurrence of such Event of Loss.

Each such Permitted Replacement shall, after such conveyance, be deemed an “Engine” or “APU” (as defined herein), as applicable, and shall be deemed part of the same Aircraft as was the Lost Item replaced thereby.
(c)    In the event an Engine is damaged and is being repaired, or is being inspected or overhauled, Borrower, at its option, may temporarily substitute another engine during the period of such repair or overhaul, so long as such engine is of the same make and model as the Engine being repaired or overhauled, is free and clear of any Lien that might impair Lender’s rights or interests in the Airframe and is maintained in accordance herewith (any such substitute engine being hereinafter referred to as a “Loaner Engine”). Borrower shall (i) cause such Loaner Engine to be installed and removed, as applicable, by a maintenance facility certified by the FAA and manufacturer with respect to the Aircraft, and (ii) cause the repaired or overhauled original Engine to be reinstalled on the Airframe promptly upon completion of the repair or overhaul, but in no event later than the earlier of ninety (90) days after removal or the occurrence of an Event of Default.
(d)    So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and no Event of Loss with respect to the Aircraft has occurred, any loss or damage proceeds of the Required Coverages received by Lender shall be released by Lender to Borrower to reimburse Borrower for paying the costs actually incurred with respect to repairs made to the Aircraft so as to restore it to the condition required by this Agreement, or for the purchase of a Permitted Replacement pursuant to Section 4.7(b), or if a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or an Event of Loss with respect to the Aircraft has occurred, shall be disbursed by Lender as otherwise required by this Agreement.
SECTION 5.    POWER OF ATTORNEY; REGISTRATION; INSPECTION.
5.1    UCCs, Registrations, Etc.; Lender as Attorney-in-Fact. Borrower hereby irrevocably: (a) authorizes Lender to prepare and file any UCC financing statements, amendments, continuations, terminations, assignments and other filings, or take such other actions for the purpose of perfecting, affording first and exclusive priority to or otherwise relating to the Lender’s Lien under any of the Loan Documents; (b) consents to, and authorizes its professional user entity to consent to, the registration of each Registerable Interest requested by Lender or its Assignee, or otherwise required by the provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including any subordination, amendment, assignment, discharge or undertaking permitted by the Cape Town Convention with respect thereto; and (c) constitutes and appoints Lender (including any Person acting on Lender’s behalf), as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full power and authority in the place and stead of Borrower and in the name of Borrower or in its own name, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Agreement; which authority shall include the following undertakings that may be exercisable by Lender in its sole discretion at any time, and from time to time, if an Event of Default is then existing: (i) in Borrower’s name, file and/or record, such further instruments, filings and other documents, make, cause to be made and/or consent to all registrations with the International Registry, and take such further action, to establish and protect Lender’s rights, interests and remedies created, or intended to be created, pursuant to the Loan Documents; (ii) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks, notes, drafts or any other payments or instruments, or set off, apply, or take such other actions with respect to any funds relating to the Collateral that come into Lender’s possession or control; and (iii) settle, adjust, receive payment and make claim or proof of loss, and take such other actions relating to the Required Coverages. This appointment is coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and shall terminate only upon indefeasible payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations. The powers conferred on Lender hereunder are solely to protect its interest in the Collateral and shall not impose any duty upon it to exercise any such powers. Lender shall be accountable only for amounts that it actually receives in good and indefeasible funds as a result of the exercise of

such powers and neither it nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall be responsible to Borrower for any act or failure to act.

5.3    Inspection. Lender or its authorized representatives shall have the right, but not the duty, to inspect the Aircraft, any part thereof and/or the Records, at its own cost during regular business hours, wherever located, upon reasonable prior notice to Borrower and at Lender’s cost, it being understood that no such inspection shall interfere with the regularly scheduled use of the Aircraft; except that after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, such inspection may be conducted at any time without prior notice and at Borrower’s sole expense, and it shall pay Lender promptly upon demand any inspection costs incurred by Lender. Upon the request of Lender, Borrower shall promptly confirm to Lender the location of the Aircraft or any of the other Collateral.
SECTION 6.    EVENTS OF DEFAULT. The term “Event of Default”, wherever used herein, shall mean:

SECTION 7.    REMEDIES.
7.1    Acceleration; Termination of Commitment. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, Lender, in its sole discretion, may (a) declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable, and upon such declaration the Obligations (including, the unpaid principal amount of the Note, together with all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, any prepayment fees and all other amounts due and payable under or with respect to the Loan Documents), shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the other Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, (b) terminate any then outstanding commitment whether to Borrower or any Affiliate to make the Loan or any advance thereof, or any other financial accommodations, whether related to the Loan or otherwise, and/or (c) pursue and enforce any of Lender’s rights and remedies under this Section 7; provided, however, if an Event of Default specified in Section 6 (e) above shall occur, the Obligations shall become immediately due and payable, all such commitments shall terminate, and Lender shall have all such other rights and remedies contemplated in the preceding clauses (a), (b) and (c), automatically, and without any notice or other action by Lender.
7.2    Additional Remedies. If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents, Lender may exercise all rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC or as a creditor, chargee or security assignee under the Cape Town Convention (including any and all remedies thereunder requiring agreement by Borrower), or otherwise available to Lender under any other Applicable Law. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Borrower agrees that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, Lender, without demand or notice of any kind (except as specified below) to or upon Borrower or any other Person, in its sole discretion, may exercise any one or more of the following remedies:
(a)    (i) enter the premises where the Aircraft, the Engines, or any other Collateral is located, take immediate possession of, remove (or disable in place), or otherwise take control or custody of the Airframe, the Engines or any other Collateral (whether or not then attached to the Airframe) by self-help, summary proceedings or otherwise without liability, (ii) preserve the Airframe, the Engines or the other Collateral, and their respective value (but without any obligation to do so), and immobilize or keep idle the Airframe or Engines, and/or (iii) use Borrower’s premises for storage without liability; and Borrower agrees, at Lender’s request, to assemble the Collateral, and make it available to Lender at such places as Lender shall reasonably select, whether at Borrower’s premises or elsewhere;
(b)    (i) terminate the right of any Interested Third Party, and any other third party to use, possess or control the Airframe, the Engines or any of the other Collateral, including under any Permitted Third Party Agreement or other Third Party Agreement, without regard as to the existence of any event of default thereunder, (ii) recover from, and/or cause Borrower and any such Interested Third Party, and any other third party, to relinquish possession and return the Airframe, the Engines and any other Collateral pursuant to this Section 7, and/or (iii) exercise any and all other remedies under any Operating Consents in Borrower’s stead, to the extent provided for under, or otherwise available to Borrower in connection with any related Permitted Third Party Agreement or such other Third Party Agreement;
(c)    (i) manage, sell, lease, assign or otherwise dispose of the Airframe, the Engines or any other Collateral, in whole or in part, whether or not in Lender's possession, in one or more parcels or transactions, at public or private sale or sales, with or without notice to Borrower (except as required by Applicable Law, and in furtherance thereof, Lender agrees that it shall give Borrower no less than ten (10) working days’ prior notice of any proposed sale or lease of the Airframe or Engines, which Borrower acknowledges as constituting “reasonable prior notice” for the purposes of the Cape Town Convention) at such prices as Lender may deem best, and/or (ii) purchase the Collateral, in whole or in part, upon any public sale or sales, and to the extent permitted by Applicable Law upon any private sale or sales, free of any right or equity of redemption in Borrower, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly released;
(d)    (i) collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, including by applying any deposit or other cash collateral, or collecting or receiving, appropriating and realizing upon any income, profits or other proceeds arising from the management or use of the Airframe, the Engines or any of the other Collateral, and applying the same (after deducting all taxes, costs, expenses and other reductions of every kind incurred in connection therewith) to the payment in whole or in part of the Obligations, in such order and manner as Lender may elect; and (ii) after making such application, (A) remitting to Borrower or to such other Person any excess then remaining, and (B) demanding, collecting and receiving from Borrower any deficiency then remaining (and Borrower agrees that it shall remain liable for, and pay upon demand, the full amount of any such deficiency);

 
10
 


(LOAN AGREEMENT (S/N 9245)

(e)    (i) demand and obtain from any court speedy relief pending final determination available at law (including, possession, control, custody or immobilization of the Airframe and Engines, or preservation of the Airframe and the Engines and their respective value), (ii) procure the deregistration and/or export and physical transfer of the Airframe from the territory in which it is then situated (including pursuant to an IDERA, if any, executed by Borrower), and/or (iii) otherwise proceed at law or in equity, to enforce specifically Borrower’s performance or to recover damages; and/or
(f)    exercise any and all other rights and remedies under or with respect to the Loan Documents or Applicable Law, including the Cape Town Convention and the UCC.
7.3    No Waiver: Cumulative Remedies. No right or remedy is exclusive. Borrower hereby acknowledges that none of the provisions of this Section 7, including any remedies set forth or referenced herein, is “manifestly unreasonable” for the purposes of the Cape Town Convention. Each may be used successively and cumulatively and in addition to any other right or remedy referred to above or otherwise available to Lender at law or in equity, but in no event shall Lender be entitled to recover any amount in excess of the maximum amount recoverable under Applicable Law with respect to any Event of Default. No express or implied waiver by Lender of any Default or Event of Default hereunder shall in any way be, or be construed to be, a waiver of any future or subsequent Default or Event of Default. The failure or delay of Lender in exercising any rights granted it hereunder upon the occurrence of any of the contingencies set forth herein shall not constitute a waiver of any such right upon the continuation or reoccurrence of any such contingencies or similar contingencies, and any single or partial exercise of any particular right by Lender shall not exhaust the same or constitute a waiver of any other right provided for or otherwise referred to herein. After the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, the acceptance by Lender of any payment or performance of any of the Obligations, including the payment of any installment of principal and/or interest or of any other sum owing hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall not constitute a waiver of such Default or Event of Default, regardless of Lender’s knowledge or lack of knowledge thereof at the time of acceptance of any such payment or performance and shall not constitute a reinstatement of any of the Loan Documents. To the extent permitted by Applicable Law, Borrower waives any rights now or hereafter conferred thereby, that (a) limit or modify any of Lender’s rights or remedies under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, including the provisions of Article 13(2) of the Convention, or (b) would otherwise entitle Borrower to (i) receive notices or demands as a condition to Lender’s exercise of any rights or remedies, except as expressly required above or (ii) make claims, damages and demands against Lender arising out of the repossession, retention, sale or other disposition of the Collateral.
SECTION 8.    MISCELLANEOUS.
8.1    Notices. All communications and notices provided for herein shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given or made (i) upon hand delivery, or (ii) upon delivery by an overnight delivery service, or (iii) two (2) Business Days after being deposited in the U.S. mail, return receipt requested, first class postage prepaid, and addressed to Lender or Borrower at their respective addresses set forth under their signatures hereto or such other address as either party may hereafter designate by written notice to the other, or (iv) when sent by telecopy (with customary confirmation of receipt of such telecopy) on the Business Day when sent or upon the next Business Day if sent on other than a Business Day.
8.2    Expenses and Fees; Indemnity; Performance of Borrower’s Obligations.
(e)    Borrower shall pay to Lender upon demand all reasonable and documented fees, costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of Lender at any time in connection with (i) the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and enforcement of the Loan Documents and the collection of the Obligations (both before and after the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default), (ii) the creation, preservation and protection of the Collateral and the perfection, first priority and enforcement of Lender’s Lien, or (iii) Borrower’s exercise of any right granted under, or any amendment or other modification to any of, the Loan Documents. Such fees, costs and expenses shall include, without limitation, appraisal and inspection fees, the fees and expenses of Aviation Counsel and of Lender’s counsel, consultants and brokers, UCC, FAA, International Registry and other applicable title, interest and lien searches, and costs and expenses relating to recovery, repossession, storage, insurance, transportation, repair, refurbishment, advertising, sale and other dispositions of the Aircraft or any of the other Collateral. Borrower shall also pay all fees (including license, filing and registration fees), Impositions and other charges of whatever kind or nature that may be payable or determined to be payable in connection with (A) the execution, delivery, recording or performance of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, or any modification thereof, and (B) the filings, registrations and other undertakings relating thereto. In addition to the foregoing, Borrower shall pay to Lender a Documentation Fee in the amount of $500.00. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Borrower’s obligation pursuant to this Agreement to pay and/or reimburse Lender for the costs, fees, and expenses incurred, whether prior to or after the Closing,

 
11
 


(LOAN AGREEMENT (S/N 9245)

by or on behalf of Lender in connection with the initial negotiation, preparation, execution, and delivery of the Loan Documents (including, without limitation, all costs of recording and filing of liens, record searches, registrations, filings, legal fees, charges for certified copies and any other fees incidental to credit review, documentation, closing, appraisal or inspection of the Aircraft) will not exceed $15,000.00.
(f)    Borrower hereby further agrees, whether or not the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be consummated, to pay, indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Lender and its affiliates and all of the Lender’s and such affiliates’ respective directors, shareholders, members, officers, employees, agents, predecessors, attorneys-in-fact, lawyers, successors and assigns (Lender, its affiliates and all of such other parties and entities sometimes hereinafter collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, out of pocket costs, and reasonable and documented attorney’s fees, reasonable and documented expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (“Claims”) arising with respect to or in connection with (i) the Airframe, the Engines, or any APUs or Parts, or any of the other Collateral, including (whether by or through Borrower, Supplier, any Interested Third Party, or any other Person), the manufacture, inspection, ownership, lease, sublease, management, pooling, interchange, time sharing, chartering, possession, use, operation, maintenance, security, condition (whether prior to, upon or after delivery or acceptance of any of the same), repossession, storage, sale or other disposition of any of the same, or any accident in connection therewith, including Claims involving or alleging environmental damage, criminal acts, hijacking, acts of terrorism or similar acts, product liability or strict or absolute liability in tort, latent and other defects (whether or not discoverable) and for any other risk or matter, including any of the same that result in injuries, death, destruction, or other harm or loss to persons or property, or (ii) any of the Loan Documents, Third Party Agreements or other Transaction Documents, or the performance, breach (including any Default or Event of Default) or enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof, provided, that Borrower shall have no obligation to indemnify an Indemnified Party with respect to Claims directly arising from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Party. If any Claim is made against any Indemnified Party, the party receiving notice or otherwise becoming aware of such Claim shall promptly notify the other, but the failure of the party having knowledge of a Claim to so notify the other party shall not relieve Borrower of any obligation hereunder.
(g)    If any Borrower Party fails to perform or comply with any of its agreements contained herein or in the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, its obligations to keep the Collateral free of Liens (other than the Permitted Liens), comply with the Registration Requirements or any of the other Applicable Standards, or obtain the Required Coverages, Lender shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to effect such performance or compliance, with such agreement. Any reasonable and documented expenses of Lender incurred in connection with effecting such performance or compliance, together with interest thereon at the default rate of interest provided for in the Note from the date incurred until reimbursed, shall be payable by Borrower to Lender promptly on demand and until such payment shall constitute part of the Obligations secured hereby. Any such action shall not be a cure or waiver of any Default or Event of Default hereunder.
8.3    Lender’s Assignment. Lender, may at any time, with or without notice to Borrower, freely grant a security interest in, sell, assign, participate or otherwise transfer (an “Assignment”) all or any part of its interest in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all associated rights associated with or secured thereby and the related international interests) or any amount due or to become due hereunder or thereunder, and Borrower shall perform all of its obligations under the Loan Documents, to the extent so transferred, for the benefit of the beneficiary of such Assignment (such beneficiary, including any successors and assigns, an “Assignee”). Borrower hereby waives any right to assert, and agrees not to assert, against any Assignee any abatement, reduction, defense, setoff, recoupment, claim or counterclaim that Borrower may have against Lender (which rights or remedies against Lender shall continue and survive notwithstanding such assignment). Upon the assumption by such Assignee of Lender’s obligations hereunder, Lender shall be relieved of any such assumed obligations. Borrower hereby consents to any such Assignment, including, without limitation, for purposes of the Cape Town Convention. If so directed in writing, Borrower shall pay all amounts due or to become due under the Loan Documents, including any of the same constituting associated rights or proceeds directly to the Assignee or any other party designated in writing by Lender or such Assignee. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that Lender’s right to enter into an Assignment is essential to Lender and, accordingly, waives any restrictions under Applicable Law with respect to an Assignment and any related remedies. Upon the request of Lender or any Assignee, Borrower also agrees (a) to promptly execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered by any Guarantor or any other Transaction Party, to Lender or to such Assignee an acknowledgment of assignment in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the requesting party and to Borrower, an insurance certificate naming Assignee as additional insured and loss payee and otherwise evidencing the Required Coverages, an IDERA and Registration POA in favor of Assignee, and such other documents and assurances reasonably requested by Lender or Assignee, (b) to make, or cause to be made, all registrations (including all assignments and subordinations) and all amendments, extensions and discharges with the International Registry reasonably requested by Lender or Assignee (and give or obtain any necessary consent thereto,

 
12
 


(LOAN AGREEMENT (S/N 9245)

as well as renew any authorization required by the International Registry in connection therewith, including renewing its transacting user entity status and re-designating a professional user entity, if necessary in Lender’s judgment), and (c) to comply with any and all other reasonable requirements of any such Assignee in connection with any such Assignment. Lender agrees to reimburse Borrower for any and all reasonable and documented costs incurred by Borrower in connection with any such assignment.
8.4    Construction of this Agreement and Related Matters. All representations and warranties made in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of the Loan hereunder. Borrower’s obligations contained in this Section 8 shall survive the payment and performance of the Obligations, the termination of this Agreement, and the release of the Collateral. This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto on any number of separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument. The headings of the Sections hereof are for convenience only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not be deemed to affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. Time is of the essence in the payment and performance of all of Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement. Any provision of this Agreement that may be determined to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective in such jurisdiction to the extent thereof without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect.
8.5    Entire Agreement; Modifications; Binding Effect. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the parties hereto with respect to the matters contained herein and therein, and shall completely and fully supersede all other prior agreements (including any proposal letter, commitment letter, or term sheet), both written and oral, between Lender and Borrower relating to the Obligations. Neither this Agreement, nor any terms hereof, may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against which enforcement of a change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrower and Lender and their respective successors and assigns (but without limiting the provisions of Section 8.5); except that Borrower may not assign or transfer its rights or obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Agreement, or any interest herein or therein; and any such purported or attempted assignment or transfer by Borrower shall be null and void.
8.6    Governing Law; Jurisdiction; JURY TRIAL WAIVER. (a) This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of both parties shall be governed by, the internal laws of the State of New York (without regard to the conflict of laws principles of such state, except as to the effect of Title 14, Section 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the New York General Obligations Law), including all matters of construction, validity, and performance. (b) Borrower hereby irrevocably consents and agrees that any legal action, suit or proceeding arising out of or in any way in connection with this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents may be instituted or brought in the courts of the State of New York or in the United States Courts for the Southern District of New York, as Lender may elect or in any other state or Federal court as Lender shall deem appropriate, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, Borrower hereby irrevocably accepts and submits to, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any such court, and to all proceedings in such courts. Borrower irrevocably consents to the service of process in any manner permitted by law. Nothing in this Agreement or in any of the other Loan Documents shall limit the right of Lender to bring actions, suits or proceedings in the courts of any other jurisdiction. Borrower further agrees that final judgment against it in any such legal action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in any other jurisdiction, within or outside the United States of America, by suit on the judgment, a certified or exemplified copy of which shall be conclusive evidence of the fact and the amount of the liability. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, Lender and Borrower may bring a judicial proceeding in the Republic of Ireland, solely with respect to matters relating to the International Registry. (c) BORROWER HEREBY KNOWINGLY AND FREELY WAIVES ITS RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL IN ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO, ARISING UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT, THE NOTE OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

WHEREAS, under the Loan Agreement, Lender is financing the costs of the acquisition of the Aircraft and certain interior and exterior upgrades to the Aircraft (the “Upgrades”); the scope of such Upgrades to be reviewed by Lender and completed by a contractor mutually acceptable to Lender and Borrower (the “Company”);
WHEREAS, as a condition to the funding of the Loan, a portion of the loan proceeds to be used for the funding of the Upgrades are to be placed into an account with Lender until such time that the Upgrades are duly completed.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises herein contained, the parties agree as follows:

1.    Capitalized Terms. Capitalized and certain other terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Loan Agreement.

2.    Holdback Amount. At the time of the closing of the Loan, the sum of Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00) of the loan proceeds (the “Holdback Amount”) shall be retained by Lender and placed in a non-segregated, non-interest bearing account of Lender to be held in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement (the “Account”). Lender is not required to keep the Holdback Amount in a separate account, and the Holdback Amount may be commingled with Lender’s other funds.

4.    Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be invalid, inoperative or unenforceable as applied in any particular case in any jurisdiction or jurisdictions or in all jurisdictions, or in all cases because it conflicts with any other provision or provisions hereof or any constitution or statute or rule of public policy, or for any other reason, such circumstances shall not have the effect of rendering the provision in question inoperative or unenforceable in any other case or circumstance, or of rendering any other provision or provisions hereunder contained invalid, inoperative or unenforceable to any extent whatsoever.


 
 
 




5.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts each of which shall be an original and all of which together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

GUARANTY

THIS GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”) is made as of August 7, 2013 by WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT, INC. (“Guarantor”) in favor of RBS ASSET FINANCE, INC. (“Lender”).
WWE JET SERVICES, INC. (“Borrower”) and Lender have or will enter into a Loan and Aircraft Security Agreement (S/N 9245) of even date herewith (as may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”), a complete and accurate copy of which has been provided to Guarantor by Borrower.
The execution and delivery of this Guaranty is a condition precedent to Lender’s agreement to enter into the Agreement and make one or more Loans thereunder.
Guarantor has a direct and substantial economic interest in Borrower and expects to derive substantial benefits therefrom and from any loans, credit transactions, financial accommodations, discounts, purchases of property and other transactions and events arising in connection with the Agreement.
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby agrees as follows:
Section 1.     Definitions. Unless otherwise defined in this Guaranty, all capitalized terms used in this Guaranty shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.
Section 2.     Guaranty of Guaranteed Obligations. Guarantor hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the full and timely payment and performance of the following (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”): (a) all Obligations, whether for principal, interest, fees, expenses or otherwise, (b) all other obligations of Borrower to Lender now or hereafter incurred under the Loan Documents, and (c) any and all costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by Lender in enforcing any of its rights under this Guaranty or any Loan Document.
Section 3.    Unconditional; Irrevocability. (a) This is an absolute, unconditional and continuing guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection of all Guaranteed Obligations, and Guarantor agrees that its obligations under this Guaranty shall be irrevocable. This Guaranty shall take effect upon execution hereof without the necessity of any acceptance by Lender or of any notice to Guarantor. The dissolution, insolvency or adjudication of bankruptcy of Guarantor shall not revoke this Guaranty. No act or thing need occur to establish the liability or obligation of Guarantor hereunder, and no act or thing, except full payment, discharge and performance of all Guaranteed Obligations, shall in any way exonerate Guarantor hereunder or modify, reduce, limit or release the liability of Guarantor hereunder.
(b)    Lender shall not be required first to resort to payment of the Guaranteed Obligations by Borrower or any other Person, or their properties, before enforcing this Guaranty.
(c)    Guarantor further agrees that, if any payment applied by Lender to the Guaranteed Obligations is thereafter set aside, recovered, rescinded or required to be returned for any reason (including, without limitation, the bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of Borrower or any other obligor), the Guaranteed Obligations to which such payment was applied shall for the purpose of this Guaranty be deemed to have continued in existence, notwithstanding such payment, and this Guaranty shall be enforceable as to such Guaranteed Obligations as fully as if such payment had never been made. The provisions of this Section 3(c) hereof shall survive any termination of this Guaranty.
Section 4.    Continuation and Validity of Guaranteed Obligations. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected or impaired by any of the following acts or things: (a) the validity, enforceability, discharge, disaffirmance, settlement, termination, rejection or compromise (by any Person, including a trustee in bankruptcy or other similar official) of the Guaranteed Obligations or of any Loan Document, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Guaranteed Obligations from Borrower or any other Person, (c) the waiver or consent by Lender with respect to any provision of any instrument or agreement evidencing the

 
 
 




Guaranteed Obligations, any delay or lack of diligence in the enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any failure to institute proceedings, file a claim, give any required notices or otherwise protect the Guaranteed Obligations, (d) any change of the time, manner or place of payment or performance, or any amendment of any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any Loan Document, (e) any law, regulation or order of any jurisdiction affecting any term of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or rights of Lender with respect thereto, (f) the failure by Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain perfected its interest in the Collateral or any security or collateral related to the Guaranteed Obligations, (g) the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding with respect to Borrower, (h) any full or partial release of, compromise or settlement with, or agreement not to sue, Borrower or any other Person liable in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, (i) any release, surrender, cancellation or other discharge of any evidence of the Guaranteed Obligations or the acceptance of any instrument in renewal or substitution therefor, (j) any collection, sale, lease or disposition of, or any other enforcement of or realization on, any of the Collateral, (k) any assignment, pledge or other transfer of the Guaranteed Obligations or any evidence thereof, (l) any acceptance of collateral security, guarantors, accommodation parties or sureties for any or all Guaranteed Obligations, (m) any change in the existing relationship between Guarantor and Borrower, including, without limitation, any sale or other transfer of ownership or beneficial interest in the Borrower by Guarantor or (n) any legal or equitable discharge or defense of Guarantor. Guarantor waives any and all defenses and discharges available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor.
Section 5.     Representations, Warranties and Covenants. Guarantor hereby represents and warrants to, and covenants with, Lender as follows:
(a)    Organization, Etc. Guarantor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state of Delaware and has full corporate power, authority and legal right to own or lease all of its properties and assets, to carry on its business as it is now being conducted and to execute, deliver and perform this Guaranty. Guarantor is duly qualified as a foreign corporation in good standing under the laws of each other jurisdiction in which the nature of its business requires such qualification and in which failure to so qualify would render this Guaranty unenforceable or would have an adverse effect on Guarantor’s ability to perform its obligations under this Guaranty.
(b)    Authorization Valid Agreement. Guarantor has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to carry out its terms. The execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty have been duly authorized by all required corporate or other action on the part of Guarantor, and this Guaranty constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, conservatorship, receivership, liquidation or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles.
(c)    No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance by Guarantor of this Guaranty does not and will not (i) contravene its certificate or articles of incorporation or bylaws, (ii) violate any provision of, or require any filing, registration, consent or approval under, any law, rule, regulation, order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect having applicability to Guarantor, (iii) result in a breach of or constitute a default or require any consent under any indenture or loan or credit agreement or any other agreement, lease or instrument to which Guarantor is a party or by which it or its properties may be bound or affected or (iv) result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any lien upon or with respect to any of the properties now owned or hereafter acquired by Guarantor.
(d)    No Proceedings. There are no proceedings or investigations pending, or, to the best knowledge of Guarantor, threatened against Guarantor before any governmental authority (i) asserting the invalidity of this Guaranty, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling that would adversely affect the performance by Guarantor of its obligations under this Guaranty or (iv) seeking any determination or ruling that would adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Guaranty or any of the Loan Documents.
(e)    No Consents. No consent, approval, authorization or order of or declaration, filing or registration with any governmental authority or other Person is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Guaranty, except such as have been duly made or obtained and are in full force and effect.

 
 
 




(f)    Benefits. Guarantor has a direct and substantial economic interest in Borrower and expects to derive substantial benefits therefrom and from the transaction described in the Loan Documents and any loans, credit transactions, financial accommodations, discounts, purchases of property and other transactions and events resulting in the creation of Guaranteed Obligations and the other obligations guaranteed hereby, and this Guaranty shall be effective and enforceable by Lender without regard to the receipt, nature or value of any such benefits.
(g)    Solvency. Guarantor is solvent and will not be rendered insolvent by this Guaranty or the transactions contemplated hereby and, after giving effect to such transactions, Guarantor will not be left with an unreasonably small amount of capital with which to engage in its business, nor does Guarantor intend to incur, or believe that it has incurred, debts beyond its ability to pay as they mature. Guarantor is not entering into the transactions contemplated by this Guaranty with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of Guarantor’s creditors.
Section 6.    Financial Reporting.    Guarantor shall deliver to Lender, (1) as soon as practicable but in no event later than ninety (90) days after the closing of each fiscal year of such Person, complete financial statements of such Person, prepared in accordance with GAAP and audited by nationally recognized independent certified public accountants along with a copy of the Annual Covenant Compliance Certificate, (2) as soon as practicable but in no event later than forty-five (45) days after the close of each fiscal quarter of such Person, copies of such Person’s internally prepared quarterly financial report prepared in accordance with GAAP and certified by Guarantor’s chief financial officer, provided, however, that Guarantor shall be deemed to have complied with the foregoing requirements for financial statements in clauses (1) and (2) if such entity files Forms 10-K and 10-Q with the Securities and Exchange Commission that are publicly available within the time frames set forth above, and all such financial statements (or Forms 10-Q and 10-K) shall fairly present financial condition and the results of operations of the respective Person as of the date of and for the period covered by such statements and (3) promptly, such additional financial and other information as Lender may from time to time reasonably.
Section 7.     Independent Guaranteed Obligations. The obligations of Guarantor hereunder are undertaken as primary obligor and independently of, the obligations of Borrower or any other Person, and action or actions may be brought or prosecuted directly against Guarantor whether or not action is brought first or at all against Borrower or any other Person, against any collateral security or any other circumstance whatsoever, and whether or not Borrower or any other Person is joined in any such action or actions, or any claims or demands are made or are not made, or any action is taken on or against Borrower or any other Person or any collateral security or otherwise.
Section 8.     Waivers. Guarantor waives any and all defenses, claims, setoffs and discharges of Borrower or any other Person pertaining to the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any other provision hereof, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Guarantor hereby waives: (a) any defense arising by reason of any invalidity or unenforceability of Borrower’s obligations in respect of any Loan Document, any manner in which Lender has exercised (or not exercised) any rights and remedies under any Loan Document, or any cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of Borrower or any other Person; (b) all presentments, demands for performance, notices of nonperformance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor and notices of acceptance of any of the Loan Documents; (c) any release of any of the collateral provided under any Loan Document; (d) notice of any indulgences, extensions, consents or waivers given to Borrower or any other Person, notice of the occurrence of any default or event of default under any Loan Document, or other notice of any kind whatsoever; (e) any right or claim of right to cause Lender to proceed against Borrower or any other Person in any particular order, to proceed against or exhaust any collateral security held by Lender at any time or to pursue any other right or remedy whatsoever at any time; (f) any requirement of diligence or promptness on Lender’s part in (i)  making any claim or demand on or commencing suit against Borrower or any other Person or (ii) otherwise enforcing Lender’s rights in respect of any Loan Document; (g) any defense of waiver, release, discharge in bankruptcy, statute of limitations, res judicata, statute of frauds, anti-deficiency statute, fraud, usury, illegality or unenforceability which may be available to Borrower or any other person liable in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, or any setoff available against Lender or any other such person, whether or not on account of a related transaction and (h) any duty of Lender to advise Guarantor of any information known to Lender regarding the financial condition of Borrower or any other circumstance, it being agreed that Guarantor assumes responsibility for being and keeping informed of such condition or any such circumstance.

 
 
 




Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Guarantor waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by Lender, even though that election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security for a Guaranteed Obligation, has destroyed Guarantor’s rights of subrogation and reimbursement against the principal. Guarantor hereby agrees not to, and waives its right to, exercise or pursue, so long as any of the Guaranteed Obligations remain unsatisfied, any right to reimbursement, subrogation, or contribution from Borrower in respect of payments hereunder.
Section 9.     Significance of Waivers. Guarantor represents, warrants and agrees that each of the waivers set forth herein are made with Guarantor’s full knowledge of its significance and consequences, with the understanding that events giving rise to any defense waived may diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which Guarantor otherwise may have against Borrower or any other Person, or against the Collateral, and that under the circumstances the waivers are reasonable.
Section 10.     Subordination; Assignment. Guarantor agrees that any indebtedness of Borrower now or hereafter owed to Guarantor (“Borrower Debt”) is hereby subordinated to the Guaranteed Obligations, and Guarantor hereby assigns such Borrower Debt to Lender as security for the obligations of Guarantor hereunder. Guarantor will not demand, receive or accept any payment from Borrower in respect of Borrower Debt at any time during which a Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In the event that Guarantor shall receive any payment on the Borrower Debt, Guarantor will hold the amount so received in trust for Lender and will forthwith turn over such payment to Lender in the form received (except for the endorsement of Guarantor where necessary) for application on the then existing Guaranteed Obligations (whether due or not due), in such manner of application as Lender may deem appropriate.
In the event of any receivership, insolvency, bankruptcy, assignment for the benefit of creditors, reorganization or arrangement with creditors, whether or not pursuant to bankruptcy laws, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets, dissolution, liquidation or any other marshaling of the assets or liabilities of Borrower, Guarantor will file all claims, proofs of claim or other instruments of similar character necessary to enforce the obligations of Borrower in respect of the Borrower Debt and will hold in trust for Lender and promptly pay over to Lender in the form received (except for the endorsement of Lender where necessary) for application on the then existing Guaranteed Obligations, any and all moneys, dividends or other assets received in any such proceedings on account of the Borrower Debt, unless and until the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full. In the event that Guarantor shall fail to take any such action, Lender, as attorney-in-fact for Guarantor, may take such action on behalf of Guarantor. Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints Lender, or any of its officers or employees on behalf of Lender, as the attorney-in-fact for Guarantor with the right (but not the duty) to demand, sue for, collect and receive any and all such moneys, dividends or other assets and give acquittance therefor and to file any claim, proof of claim or other instrument of similar character, and to take such other proceedings in Lender’s own name or in the name of Guarantor as Lender may deem necessary or advisable for the enforcement of the agreements contained herein; and Guarantor will execute and deliver to Lender such other and further powers of attorney or instruments as Lender may request in order to accomplish the foregoing.
Section 11.     Reimbursement. Guarantor shall pay or reimburse Lender for all costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees and legal expenses) incurred by Lender in connection with the protection, defense or enforcement of this Guaranty in any litigation or bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings.
Section 12.     Loan Document. Guarantor agrees to comply with all the covenants contained in the Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are applicable to it. This Guaranty is a Loan Document executed pursuant to the Agreement and shall be construed, administered and applied in accordance with the terms and provisions thereof. If Guarantor breaches or fails to perform any of its covenants or agreements contained herein or if any representation or warranty of Guarantor contained herein shall be incorrect when made in any material respect, an event of default shall occur hereunder, which shall constitute an Event of Default under the Agreement.
Section 13.    Cumulative Liability. The liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all other liabilities of Guarantor as guarantor, surety, endorser, accommodation co-obligor or otherwise of any Guaranteed Obligations or obligation of Borrower, without any limitation as to amount.

 
 
 




Section 14.     Amendments. This Guaranty may not be waived, modified, amended, terminated, released or otherwise changed, except with the prior written consent of Lender.
Section 15.     Successors and Assigns; Assignments by Lender. This Guaranty shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Guarantor and Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that Guarantor may not assign or transfer his rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender. Lender may assign, in whole or in part, its rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, in connection with any assignment, participation and/or securitization, but solely in connection with the assignment of the Agreement and then only in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Section 8.3 of the Agreement.
