#90677644v17


 

managing the syndication of the Ainge Facilities and GS shall have “left side” placement in any and all marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Ainge Facilities and shall hold the leading role and responsibilities conventionally associated with such “left” placement. The other Arrangers shall have “right side” placement (consistent with the ordering of such Arrangers in this A&R Commitment Letter) in any and all marketing materials or other documentation used in connection with the Ainge Facilities and shall hold the roles and responsibilities conventionally associated with such “right” placement.

Section 2.Syndication.

The Commitment Parties reserve the right, prior to and/or after the execution of the definitive documentation (including any security agreements, ancillary agreements, certificates or other documents delivered in connection therewith) with respect to the Ainge Facilities (collectively, the “Operative Documents”), to syndicate all or a portion of their commitments under the Ainge Facilities to one or more other banks, financial institutions, investors and other lenders identified by us in consultation with you and subject to your consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) (the lenders providing the Ainge Facilities, together with the Initial Lenders, are collectively referred to herein as the “Lenders”). Subject to the foregoing and the last sentence of Section 1, GS will manage all aspects of the syndication of the Ainge Facilities in consultation with Ainge, including the timing of the commencement of syndication efforts, the timing of all offers to potential Lenders, the determination of all amounts offered to potential Lenders, the selection of Lenders and the allocation of commitments among the Lenders (provided that the date on which the TLB Allocation Date (as defined in the A&R Fee Letter) occurs shall be selected by Ainge in its sole discretion).

Without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, it is understood that our commitments hereunder are not conditioned upon the syndication of, or receipt of commitments in respect of, the Ainge Facilities and in no event shall the commencement or successful completion of syndication of the Ainge Facilities, nor the obligation to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, constitute a condition to the commitment hereunder or the funding of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date (as defined below). The Arrangers may commence syndication efforts promptly upon the execution of this A&R Commitment Letter and as part of their syndication efforts it is the Arrangers’ intent to have Lenders commit to the Ainge Facilities prior to the Closing Date. Until the earlier of (i) the 60th day following the date of the consummation of the Acquisition and the initial funding under any of the Ainge Facilities (the date of such consummation and funding, the “Closing Date”) and (ii) the date upon which a Successful Syndication (as defined in the A&R Fee Letter) is achieved (such earlier date, the “Syndication Date”), Ainge hereby agrees to use its commercially reasonable efforts to assist, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Spinco Parent (as defined in Exhibit A hereto) and the Acquired Business to assist, us in achieving a syndication that is reasonably satisfactory to us. Ainge’s assistance in achieving such syndication shall include but not be limited to: (i) making appropriate members of the senior management, representatives and advisors of Ainge (and using your commercially reasonable efforts to make appropriate members of the senior management, representatives and advisors of the Acquired Business) available to participate in informational meetings with potential Lenders and/or ratings agencies at such reasonable times and reasonable places as the Arrangers may reasonably request and upon reasonable notice; (ii) using your commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the syndication efforts benefit from the existing lending relationships of Ainge (and, to the extent practical and appropriate, of the Acquired Business); (iii) assisting (including, using your commercially reasonable efforts to cause your affiliates and advisors, and the Acquired Business and its affiliates and advisors, to assist) in the preparation (and/or providing to us) of a customary confidential information memorandum for each Ainge Facility, other customary marketing materials and any other information reasonably requested by the Arrangers with respect to Ainge and its subsidiaries, the Acquired Business or the Transactions in connection with the syndication (collectively, the “Company Materials”) and using your

4

#90677644v17


 

commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Arrangers shall have received no later than 20 business days prior to the Closing Date all necessary information to complete the confidential information memorandum (including executed customary authorization letters in respect thereof that include a customary “10b-5” representation); (iv) the hosting, with the Arrangers, of a reasonable number of meetings or conference calls of prospective Lenders (and your using commercially reasonable efforts to cause certain officers of the Acquired Business to be available for such meetings) at such reasonable times and reasonable places as the Arrangers may reasonably request and upon reasonable notice and (v) using your commercially reasonable efforts (A) to procure a rating of each of the Ainge Facilities by Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”) and S&P Global Ratings, a division of S&P Global, Inc. (“S&P”), no later than 20 business days prior to the Closing Date (but no specific rating) and (B) to maintain a corporate family rating or corporate rating, as applicable, from each of Moody’s and S&P (but no specific rating). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary (but without limiting the Exclusive Funding Conditions), it is understood and agreed that you have no obligation hereunder to make available to us any documentation or information (i) subject to confidentiality obligations binding upon you, the Acquired Business or the Spinco Parent (in each case, not entered into in contemplation hereof) or (ii) subject to applicable attorney-client privilege; provided, you will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify us if any material documentation and information is being so withheld and provide a general description of such withheld documentation or information, in each case, to the extent permitted under the applicable obligation of confidentiality or privilege. Without limiting any of the Exclusive Funding Conditions and without limiting your obligations to assist with syndication efforts as set forth herein, (i) none of the foregoing shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date, (ii) neither the commencement nor the completion of the syndication of the Ainge Facilities shall constitute a condition to the commitments hereunder or the funding of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date 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 under the Ainge Facilities, including all rights with respect to consents, modifications, waivers and amendments, until the Closing Date has occurred. You hereby authorize the Arrangers to download copies of your trademark logos from your websites and post copies thereof on the Platform (as defined below) established by the Arrangers to syndicate the Ainge Facilities and use the logos on any confidential information memoranda, presentations and other marketing materials prepared in connection with the syndication of the Ainge Facilities or in any advertisements to which you consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) that any Arranger may place after the Closing Date in financial and other newspapers and journals, or otherwise, at its own expense describing its services to Ainge hereunder.

You acknowledge that (i) the Arrangers may make available the Company Materials on a confidential basis to potential Lenders by posting the Company Materials on Intralinks, SyndTrak Online, Debtdomain, the internet, email and/or similar electronic transmission systems (the “Platform”) and (ii) certain of the potential Lenders may be public side Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to you, your subsidiaries, the Acquired Business or any securities of any thereof) (each, a “Public Lender”). You agree that (A) at the request of any Arranger, you will assist us in preparing a version of the information package and presentation to be provided to potential Lenders that does not contain any material non-public information concerning you, your subsidiaries, the Acquired Business or any securities of any thereof for purposes of United States federal and state securities laws (any such information, “MNPI”, and any information package or presentation that contains MNPI is referred to as “Private-Side Materials”); (B) all Company Materials that are Private-Side Materials will be clearly and conspicuously marked “Private, contains Material Non-Public Information” which, at a minimum, will mean that “Private, contains Material Non-Public Information” will appear prominently on the first page thereof; (C) if any Company Materials are not so marked, you will be deemed to have authorized the Arrangers and the proposed Lenders to treat such Company Materials as not containing any MNPI; (D) all Company Materials not marked “Private, contains Material

5

#90677644v17


 

Non-Public Information” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Lender” and (E) you shall provide us with customary authorization letters for inclusion in the Company Materials that represent that any Company Materials with respect to Ainge not marked “Private, contains Material Non-Public Information” do not include MNPI with respect to Ainge and exculpate you, us and our respective affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use or misuse of the contents of the Company Materials by the recipients thereof and Spinco shall provide us with customary authorization letters for inclusion in the Company Materials that represent that any Company Materials with respect to the Spinco not marked “Private, contains Material Non-Public Information” do not include MNPI with respect to the Spinco and exculpate you, us and our respective affiliates with respect to any liability related to the use or misuse of the contents of the Company Materials by the recipients thereof. The Arrangers agree to treat any Company Materials that are marked “Private, contains Material Non-Public Information” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Lender”. To ensure an orderly and effective syndication of each Ainge Facility, Ainge agrees that, until the Syndication Date, Ainge will not, and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to (and Ainge will use commercially reasonable efforts to not permit the Acquired Business to), syndicate, issue, place, arrange or attempt to syndicate, issue, place or arrange, or announce or authorize the announcement of the syndication, issuance, placement or arrangement of, any debt facility or debt security (including, without limitation, the renewal of any thereof, but excluding the Facilities and the Senior Unsecured Notes) without the prior written consent of the Arrangers if such syndication, issuance, placement or arrangement could reasonably be expected to impair the primary syndication of the Facilities.

Section 3.Conditions.

The commitments of each Commitment Party hereunder to fund its respective portion of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date and the agreements of each of the Arrangers to perform the services described herein are subject solely to the satisfaction (or waiver by each of the Commitment Parties) of the following conditions precedent: (a) since the date of the Acquisition Agreement, there shall not have occurred any Newco Material Adverse Effect (as defined below), and no event shall have occurred or circumstance shall exist that, in combination with any other events or circumstances, would reasonably be expected to have or result in a Newco Material Adverse Effect, (b) subject to the Limited Conditionality Provisions (as defined below), the execution and delivery of the Operative Documents on the terms set forth in this A&R Commitment Letter (it being understood and agreed that each party hereto will negotiate such additional terms in good faith to finalize the Operative Documents) and (c) the satisfaction (or waiver by each of the Commitment Parties) of the other conditions set forth in Exhibit C hereto (clauses (a), (b) and (c) collectively, the “Exclusive Funding Conditions”); it being understood that there are no conditions (implied or otherwise) to the commitments hereunder other than the Exclusive Funding Conditions (and upon satisfaction or waiver of the Exclusive Funding Conditions, the initial funding under the Ainge Facilities shall occur). For purposes of this A&R Commitment Letter, “Newco Material Adverse Effect” shall have the meaning assigned to “Newco Material Adverse Effect” in the Acquisition Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything set forth in this A&R Commitment Letter, the A&R Fee Letter or the Operative Documents, or any other letter agreement or other undertaking concerning the financing of the Transactions to the contrary, (i) the only representations and warranties, the accuracy of which shall be a condition to availability of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date, shall be (x) such of the representations and warranties made by or on behalf of Spinco or the Spinco Parent in the Acquisition Agreement as are material to the interests of the Lenders or the Arrangers (in their capacities as such), but only to the extent that you (or any of your affiliates) have the right to terminate your (or its) obligations (or to refuse to consummate the Acquisition) under the Acquisition Agreement as a result of a breach of any of such representations and warranties (to such extent, the “Acquisition Agreement Representations”) and (y) the Specified Representations (as defined below) made by the Ainge Co-Borrowers and the Guarantors in the Operative Documents and (ii) the terms of the Operative Documents

6

#90677644v17


 

shall be in a form such that they do not impair the availability of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date if the Exclusive Funding Conditions are satisfied (it being understood that to the extent any Collateral (other than Collateral that may be perfected by (A) the filing of a UCC financing statement or (B) taking delivery and possession of stock (or other equity interest) certificates and related stock powers executed in blank with respect to the equity interests of the Ainge Co-Borrowers (other than Ainge)) cannot be delivered or a security interest therein cannot be created or perfected on the Closing Date after your use of commercially reasonable efforts to do so, then the creation and/or perfection of the security interest in such Collateral shall not constitute a condition precedent to the availability of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date but, instead, may be accomplished at any time prior to the date that is 90 days after the Closing Date (with extensions available in the Agent’s reasonable discretion). For purposes hereof, “Specified Representations” means the representations and warranties set forth in the Operative Documents (with respect to the Ainge Co-Borrowers and their respective direct and indirect subsidiaries) relating to the legal existence of the Ainge Co-Borrowers and the Guarantors; power and authority, due authorization, execution, delivery and validity, in each case, related to the entering into, borrowing under, guaranteeing under, performance of, and granting of security interests in the Collateral by the Ainge Co-Borrowers and each Guarantor pursuant to, the Operative Documents (in each case, subject to the parenthetical in the immediately preceding sentence beginning “it being understood”); the enforceability of the Operative Documents against the Ainge Co-Borrowers and each Guarantor; the execution and performance of the Operative Documents by the Ainge Co-Borrowers and each Guarantor not conflicting with or violating any Ainge Co-Borrower’s or any Guarantor’s organizational documents; Federal Reserve margin regulations; the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended; solvency of Ainge and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Direct Sales (as defined in the Acquisition Agreement), but immediately prior to the Merger); solvency of Ainge and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis as of the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Transactions); USA PATRIOT Act; use of the proceeds of the Ainge Facilities not violating laws applicable to sanctioned persons and laws and regulations promulgated by OFAC, anti-money laundering laws or the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act; and, subject to the parenthetical beginning “it being understood” appearing in the preceding sentence, the creation, validity, perfection and priority (subject to customary permitted liens to be agreed) of the security interests granted in the Collateral. The provisions of this paragraph are referred to as the “Limited Conditionality Provisions”.  Without limiting the conditions precedent provided herein for availability of the Ainge Facilities on the Closing Date, the Arrangers will cooperate with you as reasonably requested in coordinating the timing and procedures for the funding of the Ainge Facilities in a manner consistent with the Acquisition Agreement.

Section 4.Commitment Termination.

Each Commitment Party’s commitment hereunder and the other obligations set forth in this A&R Commitment Letter will terminate on the earliest of: (a) the consummation of the Acquisition with or without the funding of any of the Ainge Facilities; (b) the End Date (as defined in, and as it may be extended pursuant to, Section 8.1(b) of the Acquisition Agreement (as such Section 8.1(b) is in effect on the date hereof)); and (c) the date the Acquisition Agreement is terminated.

Section 5.Fees.

As consideration for our commitments and other obligations hereunder and our agreement to perform the services described herein, you agree to pay (or to cause to be paid) to us the fees set forth in this A&R Commitment Letter and in the Amended and Restated Fee Letter dated the date hereof among the parties hereto (such fee letter, as further amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “A&R Fee Letter”). The terms of the A&R Fee Letter are an integral part of our commitments and other obligations hereunder and our agreement to perform the services described herein and constitute part of this A&R Commitment Letter for all purposes hereof. Each of the fees

7

#90677644v17


 

described in this A&R Commitment Letter and the A&R Fee Letter shall be nonrefundable when paid except as expressly agreed.

Section 6.Indemnification.

Ainge shall indemnify and hold harmless each Commitment Party, its affiliates, and each Commitment Party’s and such affiliates’ respective directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, representatives, attorneys and advisors and their respective successors and permitted assigns (each, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all claims (including, without limitation, shareholder actions), damages, losses, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and disbursements of one primary counsel for the Indemnified Persons, one additional counsel to each group of similarly situated Indemnified Persons as required due to actual or reasonably perceived conflicts of interest and local counsel in each material jurisdiction, as necessary), that may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Person (including, without limitation, in connection with or relating to any investigation, litigation or proceeding or the preparation of a defense in connection therewith), in each case arising out of or in connection with or by reason of this A&R Commitment Letter, the A&R Fee Letter, the Original Commitment Letter, the Original Fee Letter (as defined in the A&R Fee Letter) or the Operative Documents, the Transactions or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any use of the proceeds thereof (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”), except to the extent such claim, damage, loss, liability or expense is (i) found in a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s (or such Indemnified Person’s directors’, officers’, employees’, agents’, trustees’, representatives’, attorneys’, consultants’ or advisors’) bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct or material breach of this A&R Commitment Letter or (ii) the result of any Proceeding that is not the result of an act or omission by you or any of your affiliates (or Spinco or any of its affiliates) and that is brought by an Indemnified Person against any other Indemnified Person (other than any claims against any Commitment Party in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as Arranger, administrative agent, collateral agent or any similar role under any of the Ainge Facilities). In the case of an investigation, litigation or other proceeding to which the indemnity in this paragraph applies, such indemnity shall be effective whether or not such investigation, litigation or proceeding is brought by Ainge, any of its affiliates, security holders or creditors, an Indemnified Person or any other person, or an Indemnified Person is otherwise a party thereto and whether or not the Transactions are consummated.

In no event shall any party hereto be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (including, without limitation, any loss of profits, business or anticipated savings); provided that nothing contained in this paragraph shall limit your indemnity and reimbursement obligations for such damages awarded to third parties to the extent set forth in the immediately preceding paragraph. The commitments and obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder and under the A&R Fee Letter are several and not joint, and no Commitment Party shall be liable on any theory of liability to you or any other person for the actions or omissions of any other Commitment Party.

You agree that, without our prior written consent, neither you nor any of your subsidiaries will settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any pending or threatened claim, action or proceeding in respect of which indemnification could be sought under the indemnification provision of this A&R Commitment Letter (whether or not we or any other Indemnified Person is an actual or potential party to such claim, action or proceeding), unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of each Indemnified Person from all liability arising out of such claim, action or proceeding and does not include a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnified Person.

#90677644v17


 

Ainge acknowledges that information and other materials relative to the Operative Documents and the Transactions may be transmitted through the Platform. No Indemnified Person will be liable to Ainge or any of its affiliates or any of its security holders or creditors for any damages arising from the use by unauthorized persons of information or other materials sent through the Platform that are intercepted by such persons, except to the extent such liability is determined by a final non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Indemnified Person’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Section 7.Costs and Expenses.

Ainge shall pay, or reimburse the Commitment Parties on demand for, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Commitment Parties in connection with the Ainge Facilities, the Transactions and the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this A&R Commitment Letter, the A&R Fee Letter, the Original Commitment Letter, the Original Fee Letter (as defined in the A&R Fee Letter) and the Operative Documents, including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of one primary counsel, one additional counsel to each group of similarly situated persons as required due to actual or reasonably perceived conflicts of interest and local counsel in each material jurisdiction, as necessary, regardless of whether any of the transactions contemplated hereby is consummated.

You acknowledge that neither any of the Commitment Parties nor any of their affiliates provide accounting, tax or legal advice. You further acknowledge that the Commitment Parties and their affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including, without limitation, financial advisory services) to other persons in respect of which you, the Spinco Parent, the Acquired Business and your and their respective affiliates may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. You also acknowledge that none of the Commitment Parties or their affiliates has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by this A&R Commitment Letter, or to furnish to you, confidential information obtained by them from other persons. As you know, the Commitment Parties are full service securities firms engaged, either directly or through their affiliates, in various activities, including securities trading, commodities trading, investment management, financing and brokerage activities and financial planning and benefits counseling for both companies and individuals. In the ordinary course of these activities, the Commitment Parties and their respective affiliates actively engage in commodities trading or trade the debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of Ainge, Spinco and other companies which may be the subject of the arrangements contemplated by this A&R Commitment Letter for their own account and for the accounts of their customers and may at any time hold long and short positions in such securities. The Commitment Parties or their affiliates also co-invest with, make direct investments in, and invest or co-invest client monies in or with funds or other investment vehicles managed by other parties, and such funds or other investment vehicles may trade or make investments in securities of you, the Acquired Business or other companies which may be the subject of the arrangements contemplated by this A&R Commitment Letter or engage in commodities trading with any thereof.

In addition, the parties hereto acknowledge that Ainge has retained GS (or certain affiliates of GS) and the Spinco Parent has retained UBSS (or certain affiliates of UBSS), in each case as financial advisor (in such capacity, each a “Financial Advisor”) in connection with the Acquisition. The parties hereto agree not to assert any claim that could be alleged based on any actual or potential conflicts of interest that might be asserted to arise or result from, on the one hand, the engagement of the Financial Advisors and, on the other hand, the relationship of each Financial Advisor and its affiliates with you as described and referred to herein.

Section 9.Representations and Warranties.

Ainge represents and warrants (which representation and warranty, in the case of any information relating to the Acquired Business prior to the Acquisition, is to the best of Ainge’s knowledge) that all written information, other than Projections (as defined below), other forward-looking information and information of a general economic or industry-specific nature, that has been or will hereafter be made available to any of the Commitment Parties, any Lender or any potential Lender by or on behalf of Ainge or any of its representatives (the “Information”) is and will be, when furnished, true and correct in all material respects and does not and will not, 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 were or are made (after giving effect to all supplements and updates thereto provided prior to the earlier of the Closing Date and the Syndication Date) and all financial projections, if any, that have been or will be prepared by or on behalf of Ainge or any of its representatives and made available to any of the Commitment Parties, any Lender or any potential Lender (the “Projections”) have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions that are believed by you to be reasonable at the time made available (it being understood that such Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and that such differences may be material, that such Projections are subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies many of which are beyond your control, and that

11

#90677644v17


 

no assurance can be given that the projected results will be realized). If, at any time from the date hereof until the later of the Closing Date and 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 or Projections were being furnished, and such representations and warranties were being made, at such time, then you agree to (or, prior to the Closing Date, with respect to Information and Projections relating the Acquired Business, use your commercially reasonable efforts to) promptly supplement the Information and/or Projections so that the representations and warranties contained in this paragraph remain true and correct in all material respects under those circumstances. For the avoidance of doubt, the accuracy of the representations and warranties in this Section 9, in and of itself, shall not be a condition to the obligations of the Commitment Parties hereunder or the funding of the Ainge Facilities.

In arranging and syndicating the Ainge Facilities, the Commitment Parties will be entitled to use, and to rely on the representations and warranties in the preceding paragraph relating to, any information furnished to us by or on behalf of Ainge and its affiliates without responsibility for independent verification thereof.

Section 10.Assignments.

Ainge may not assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this A&R Commitment Letter or the A&R Fee Letter without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment without such consent shall be null and void. No Commitment Party may assign or delegate any of its rights or obligations under this A&R Commitment Letter or its commitment hereunder (except to one or more of its affiliates, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any such assignment by GS to Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC) other than as expressly permitted hereunder without Ainge’s prior written consent.

Section 14.Miscellaneous.

This A&R Commitment Letter is not intended to create a fiduciary relationship among the parties hereto, and Ainge waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against any of the Commitment Parties or any of their affiliates for breach of fiduciary duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the transactions contemplated by this A&R Commitment Letter and agree that none of the Commitment Parties or any of their affiliates shall have any liability (whether direct or indirect) to Ainge or any of its affiliates in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting such a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of Ainge or any of its affiliates.

13

#90677644v17


 

Any and all services to be provided by any of the Commitment Parties hereunder may be performed, and any and all rights of any of the Commitment Parties hereunder may be exercised, by or through any of such Commitment Party’s affiliates and branches, and, in connection with the provision of such services, each Commitment Party may exchange with such affiliates and branches information concerning Ainge or any of its affiliates and the other companies that may be the subject of the transactions contemplated by this A&R Commitment Letter and, to the extent so employed, such affiliates and branches shall be entitled to the benefits afforded to the Commitment Parties hereunder, subject to the confidentiality provisions herein.

We hereby notify you that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act, Title III of Pub.

2.

Subject to paragraph 3 below, Spinco will borrow senior unsecured increasing rate bridge loans (the “Senior Unsecured Bridge Loans”) under a new senior unsecured bridge loan facility (the “Senior Unsecured Bridge Facility”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to (i) $400,000,000, less (ii) the amount of gross cash proceeds actually received by Spinco from the issuance of one or more series of senior unsecured notes (collectively, the “Senior Unsecured Notes”) in a Rule 144A or other private placement on or prior to the Closing Date and less (iii) the principal amount of any Senior Unsecured Notes issued to the Spinco Parent and then transferred to the Debt Exchange parties in the Debt Exchange), as further described in that certain Amended and Restated Commitment Letter dated the date hereof, among Spinco, GS, UBSS, UBS, CGMI, WFS, Wells, HSI, HSBC Bank, MUFG, Bank of Montreal, BMOCM, Citizens, Royal Bank, RBCCM, TDNY and TD Securities (together with the exhibits attached thereto, the “Spinco A&R Commitment Letter”; and the “A&R Fee Letter” referred to therein, the “Spinco A&R Fee Letter”).

(B) A senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $300,000,000 (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the Ainge Term Loan B Facility, the “Ainge Facilities”), of which up to an aggregate amount to be agreed upon will be available through a subfacility in the form of standby letters of credit. The Revolving Credit Facility shall be funded in U.S. dollars, Euros, pounds sterling or other currencies to be agreed.

B-1

#90677644v17


 

 

In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, the Agent (in such capacity, the “Swingline Lender”) will make available to domestic Ainge Co-Borrowers a swingline facility under which such Ainge Co-Borrowers may make short-term borrowings in U.S. dollars (on same day notice) of up to an amount to be mutually agreed. Except for purposes of calculating the commitment fee described below, any such swingline borrowings will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.

 

Each lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall, promptly upon request by the Swingline Lender, fund to the Swingline Lender its pro rata share of any swingline borrowings.

 

The Operative Documents will contain customary defaulting lender provisions, including reallocation provisions to be agreed with respect to swingline borrowings outstanding or to be made when a lender under the Revolving Credit Facility is a Defaulting Lender (to be defined in a manner to be agreed).

Purpose:

(A) The proceeds of the Ainge Term Loan B Facility will be used by Ainge on the Closing Date to consummate the Transactions, including the payment of fees, costs and expenses in connection with the Transactions.

 

(B) The proceeds of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will be used by Ainge from time to time on or after the Closing Date for working capital and general corporate purposes (and not to finance the Transactions on the Closing Date, except to the extent permitted as set forth below under clause (B) under the heading “Availability”).

 

(C) Letters of credit will be used solely to support payment obligations incurred in the ordinary course of business by Ainge and its subsidiaries, including replacing or backstopping existing letters of credit outstanding on the Closing Date under the Existing Ainge Credit Agreement.

Letters of Credit:

Letters of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility will be issued by the Agent and any other Lender who agrees to act in such capacity and that is acceptable to Ainge and the Agent (the “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 Credit Facility; provided, however, 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).

B-2

#90677644v17


 

 

Drawings under any letter of credit shall be reimbursed by the applicable Ainge Co-Borrower no later than 12:00 noon on the business day immediately following such drawing. The issuance of all letters of credit shall be subject to the customary policies and procedures of the applicable Issuing Bank applying such policies and procedures in a manner consistent with their treatment of similarly situated borrowers. To the extent the applicable Ainge Co-Borrower does not reimburse the Issuing Bank when required, the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility will be irrevocably

obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank pro rata based upon their respective Revolving Credit Facility commitments.

 

All letters of credit shall be denominated in U.S. dollars or such additional currencies as may be agreed by the Arrangers and the Ainge Co-Borrowers prior to the Closing Date or the relevant Issuing Bank after the Closing Date.

Letters of Credit issued under the Existing Ainge Credit Agreement and outstanding as of the Closing Date will, at Ainge’s option, be deemed to have been issued under the Revolving Credit Facility or back-stopped by a newly-issued letter of credit under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Availability:

(A) The full amount of the Ainge Term Loan B Facility must be drawn in a single drawing on the Closing Date. Amounts borrowed under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility and repaid may not be reborrowed.

 

(B) Up to $50,000,000 of loans under the Revolving Credit Facility may be made on the Closing Date to finance the Transactions and an additional amount of loans to be agreed may be made on the Closing Date for working capital and general corporate purposes. Thereafter, loans under the Revolving Credit Facility will be available at any time prior to the final maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility, in minimum principal amounts and upon notice to be agreed upon. Amounts repaid under the Revolving Credit Facility may be reborrowed within the foregoing limits, subject to satisfaction of applicable conditions.

Maturity and Amortization:

(A) The Ainge Term Loan B Facility will mature on the date that is seven years after the Closing Date (the “TLB Maturity Date”). The Ainge Term Loan B Facility will amortize in equal quarterly installments in an aggregate annual amount equal to 1.00% of the original principal amount of the Ainge Term Loan B Facility borrowed on the Closing Date.

 

All outstanding principal under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility as of the TLB Maturity Date will be due on the TLB Maturity Date.

 

(B) The Revolving Credit Facility will mature and the commitments thereunder will terminate on the date that is five years after the Closing Date. The Revolving Credit Facility will not amortize.

From time to time, Ainge (and, in the case of a Revolving Credit Facility Increase, the other Ainge Co-Borrowers) shall be entitled on one or more occasions to incur (x) additional term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility (an “Incremental Term Increase”), or (y) a newly established tranche of term “B” loans (an “Incremental Term Facility”) and/or increase the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility (any such increase, a “Revolving Credit Facility Increase”; the Incremental Term Increases, Incremental Term Facilities and Revolving Credit Facility Increases are collectively referred to herein as “Incremental Facilities”), in each case under the Operative Documents and in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the sum of (A) a fixed amount equal to the greater of (I) 100% of Ainge’s pro forma consolidated Adjusted EBITDA (to be defined in a customary manner, but to include, without limitation, addbacks (or adjustments to consolidated net income) for (i) costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Transactions and (ii) subject to a customary cap of 20% of Adjusted EBITDA, “run rate” synergies, operating expense reductions and other operating improvements and cost savings) for the last four fiscal quarter period ended prior to the Closing Date and (II) 100% of Ainge’s pro forma consolidated Adjusted EBITDA for the four fiscal quarters most recently ended for which financial statements are available at such time plus (B) such other amount, so long as on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of any such Incremental Facility (and after giving effect to any acquisition consummated concurrently therewith and all other appropriate pro forma adjustment events and calculated as if any Incremental Facility were fully drawn on the effective date thereof), the senior secured net leverage ratio (to be defined in a manner to be reasonably agreed) is not greater than a ratio equal to Ainge’s senior secured net leverage ratio as of the Closing Date (pro forma for the Transactions); provided that:

(i) no default or event of default exists or would exist after giving effect thereto (provided that, in the case of any such Incremental Facility used to finance a permitted acquisition and to the extent the lenders participating therein agree, this clause (i) shall be tested only at the time of the execution of the acquisition agreement related to such permitted acquisition),

(ii) the representations and warranties contained in the Operative Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects (or, in all respects, if qualified by materiality) (provided that, in the case of any such Incremental Facility used to finance a permitted acquisition and to the extent the lenders participating therein agree, this clause (ii) shall be subject only to Specified Representations),

(iii) the loans under any such Incremental Facility shall benefit from the same guarantees as, and be secured on an equal and ratable basis by the same Collateral (as defined below) securing, the Ainge Facilities,

(iv) after giving effect to the incurrence of any Revolving Credit Facility Increase, Ainge shall be in compliance on a pro forma basis with each of the Financial Maintenance Covenants (as defined below), ..

(v) the loans under any such Incremental Term Increase shall be on the same terms as the Ainge Term Loan B Facility (including voluntary and mandatory prepayment provisions),

(vi) any Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be implemented as an increase in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and the loans and commitments under any such Revolving Credit Facility Increase shall be on the same terms applicable to the loans and commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility,

(vii) in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, the “effective yield” on the respective Incremental Term Loans (which shall be deemed to take account of interest rate benchmark floors, recurring fees and all upfront or similar fees or original issue discount (amortized over the shorter of (A) the weighted average life of such Incremental Term Loans and (B) four years) payable to all lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans, but exclusive of any arrangement, structuring or other fees payable in connection therewith that are not shared with all lenders providing such Incremental Term Loans) may exceed the then “effective yield” on the loans under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility (determined on the same basis as provided in the preceding parenthetical) if the “effective yield” on the loans under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility (determined on the same basis as provided in the second preceding parenthetical) is increased to be not less than 0.50% lower than the “effective yield” on such Incremental Term Loans (all adjustments made pursuant to this clause (vii), the “MFN Adjustment”); provided that if any Incremental Term Facility is incurred more than 12 months after the Closing Date, the MFN Adjustment shall not apply,

(viii) in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, the final stated maturity date for the Incremental Term Loans under such Incremental Term Facility may be identical to or later (but not earlier) than the final stated maturity date of the loans under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility,

(ix) in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, the weighted average life to maturity of the Incremental Term Loans under such Incremental Term Facility shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of the loans under the Ainge Term Loan B Facility,

(x) the Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Agent and

(xi) the terms of any Incremental Term Facility (except as otherwise specifically addressed in the foregoing clauses of this provision) shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

Ainge may seek commitments in respect of Incremental Term Increases, Incremental Term Facilities or Revolving Credit Facility Increases from

existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and, subject to the Agent’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Lenders in connection therewith.

 

Nothing contained herein or in the A&R Commitment Letter constitutes, or shall be deemed to constitute, a commitment by any person to provide any Incremental Term Increase, Incremental Term Facility or Revolving Credit Facility Increase.
