Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay Lender, the outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans advanced to Borrower by Lender and accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts due hereunder as and when due in accordance with this Agreement.

2.2. Term Loans.

(a) Availability. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including Sections 3.1, 3.2, and 3.4):

(i) Tranche A Loan. Lender agrees to make a term loan to Borrower on the Tranche A Closing Date in the principal amount (the “Tranche A Loan Amount) of Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000.00) (the Tranche A Loan); and

The Term Loans may be prepaid only in accordance with Section 2.2(d), except as provided in Section 9.1.

(c) AHYDO. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, commencing with the first “accrual period” (as defined under IRC Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(b)(1)(ii)) ending after the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date, and each accrual period thereafter, Borrower shall, in respect of any Term


Loan, pay in cash, on or before the end of such accrual period, both the stated interest due and payable as set forth in Section 2.3 and any accrued and unpaid “original issue discount” (determined in accordance with IRC Treasury Regulation Sections 1.1273-1 and 1.1272-1 and taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Consideration) with respect to such Term Loan if, but only to the extent that, the aggregate amount of such original issue discount that has accrued and has not been paid in cash from the Effective Date through the end of such accrual period (treating any payments made pursuant to this Article 2 as a payment of interest and original issue discount to the full extent required under IRC Treasury Regulation Sections 1.446-2(e)(l) and 1.1275-2(a)) exceeds the product of the “issue price” (as defined in IRC Treasury Regulation Section 1.1273-2(a)(1)) of such Term Loan and the “yield to maturity” (determined in accordance with IRC Treasury Regulation Section 1.1272-1(b) and taking into account, for the avoidance of doubt, the Additional Consideration) on such Term Loan.

(d) Prepayment of Term Loans.

(i) From and after the Tranche A Closing Date, Borrower shall have the option, at any time, to prepay in whole or, after the second anniversary of the Tranche A Closing Date, in part, the Term Loans advanced by Lender under this Agreement, provided that (A) Borrower provide written notice to Lender of its election (which shall be irrevocable unless Lender otherwise consents in writing) to prepay all of such Term Loans at least ten (10) Business Days prior to such prepayment, (B) such prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.2(f) and 2.7(c) and all other amounts payable or accrued and not yet paid hereunder and the other Loan Documents, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any accrued and unpaid interest that has not been capitalized in accordance with Section 2.3(a) and (C) any partial prepayment of such Term Loans shall be in a principal amount of $10,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

If Lender provides written notice to Borrower of its election for Borrower to prepay all of such Term Loans, Borrower shall prepay such Term Loans in full no later than ten (10) Business Days after the consummation of such Change in Control and such prepayment shall be accompanied by any amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.2(f) and 2.7(c) and shall include all other amounts payable or accrued and not yet paid hereunder and the other Loan Documents, including, for the avoidance of doubt, any accrued and unpaid interest that has not been capitalized in accordance with Section 2.3(a).

(e) Prepayment Application. All prepayments by Borrower pursuant Section 2.2(d) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to the date of payment in full, which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not include any such interest that has already been capitalized and added to the then-outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.3(a). Any prepayment of the Term Loans (together with the accompanying Prepayment Premium and, where applicable, Makewhole Amount that is payable pursuant to Section 2.2(f) and the Additional Consideration described in Section 2.7(d)) pursuant to Section 2.2(d) shall be paid to Lender for application to the Obligations in the following order: (i) first, to due and unpaid Lender Expenses, (ii) second, to accrued and unpaid interest at the Default Rate, (iii) third, to accrued and unpaid interest at the non-Default Rate, (iv) fourth, to the Prepayment Premium, (v) fifth, to the Additional Consideration described in Section 2.7(c), (vi) sixth, to the Makewhole Amount, where applicable, (vii) seventh, to the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans being prepaid (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any interest that has been capitalized and added thereto in accordance with Section 2.3(a)) and (viii) eighth, to any remaining amounts then due and payable hereunder.

(ii) Any prepayments of the Term Loans by Borrower (x) on or after the second anniversary of the Tranche A Closing Date, pursuant to Section 2.2(d), (y) as a result of the acceleration of the Term Loan Maturity Date pursuant to Section 9.1(a) or (z) as a result of any other circumstance where any of the Credit Parties violate their obligations under this Agreement to avoid payment of such Prepayment Premium, shall, in any such case, be accompanied by payment of the applicable Prepayment Premium.

2.3. Payment of Interest on the Credit Extensions.

(a) Interest Rate.

(i) Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Tranche A Loan shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate (which rate shall be fixed for the duration of the Tranche A Loan) equal to nine and one half (9.50%) per annum, which interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears in accordance with this Section 2.3.

(ii) Subject to Section 2.3(b), the principal amount outstanding under the Tranche B Loan shall accrue interest at a fixed per annum rate (which rate shall be fixed for the duration of the Tranche B Loan) equal to nine and one half percent (9.50%) per annum, which interest shall be payable quarterly in arrears in accordance with this Section 2.3; provided, however, that (i) if the Tranche B Closing Date occurs on or after June 30, 2016 but before September 30, 2016, such fixed per annum rate shall equal ten percent (10.00%) per annum, and (ii) if the Tranche B Closing Date occurs on or after September 30, 2016, such fixed per annum rate shall equal ten and one half percent (10.50%) per annum.

(iii) Interest shall accrue on each Term Loan commencing on, and including, the day on which the Term Loan is made, and shall accrue on a Term Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Term Loan or such portion is paid. Notwithstanding the foregoing, fifty percent (50%) of the interest on the Term Loans payable during the first eight (8) calendar quarters following the Tranche A Closing Date shall be paid-in-kind (which payment-in-kind interest shall be capitalized on such Payment Date and such capitalized amount shall be added to the then outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and constitute outstanding principal for all purposes hereof).

(b) Default Rate. Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default (and without notice to Borrower or demand by Lender for payment thereof), the Obligations shall bear interest at a rate per annum which is two percentage points (2.00%) above the rate that is otherwise applicable thereto (the “Default Rate”), and such interest shall be payable entirely in cash on demand of Lender. Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate provided in this Section 2.3(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Lender.

(c) 360-Day Year. Interest shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) Payments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all loan payments by Borrower hereunder shall be made to such bank account of Lender as Lender may designate by notice from time to time to Borrower on the date specified herein. Unless otherwise provided, interest is payable quarterly on the Payment Date of each calendar quarter. Payments of principal and/or interest received after 2:00 p.m. on such date are considered received at the opening of business on the next Business Day. When a payment is due on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment is due the next Business Day and additional fees or interest, as applicable, shall continue to accrue until paid. All payments to be made by Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document, including payments of principal and interest made hereunder and pursuant to any other Loan Document, and all fees, expenses, indemnities and reimbursements, shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim, in lawful money of the United States and in immediately available funds.

2.4. Expenses. Borrower shall pay to Lender, all Lender Expenses incurred through and after the Effective Date, promptly after receipt of a written demand therefore setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender Expenses.

2.5. Requirement of Law; Increased Costs . In the event that any applicable Change in Law:

(a) Does or shall subject Lender to any Tax of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement or any Term Loans made hereunder (except, in each case, Indemnified Taxes, Taxes described in clause (b) through (c) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and Connection Income Taxes)

(b) Does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, capital requirement, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirements against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, Lender; or

(c) Does or shall impose on Lender any other condition (other than Taxes); and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Lender (as determined by Lender in good faith using calculation methods customary in the industry) of making, renewing or maintaining any Term Loan or to reduce any amount receivable in respect thereof or to reduce the rate of return on the capital of Lender or any Person controlling Lender,

then, in any such case, Borrower shall promptly pay to Lender, upon its receipt of the certificate described below, any additional amounts necessary to compensate Lender for such additional cost or reduced amounts receivable or rate of return as reasonably determined by Lender with respect to this Agreement or the Term Loans made hereunder. If Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.5, it shall promptly notify Borrower of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled, and a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence containing the calculation thereof in reasonable detail submitted by Lender to Borrower shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The provisions hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the outstanding Term Loans and all other Obligations. Failure or delay on the part of Lender to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital under this Section 2.5 shall not constitute a waiver of Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that Borrower shall not be under any obligation to compensate Lender under this Section 2.5 with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 180 days prior to the date of the delivery of the notice required pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this paragraph; provided, further, that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 180-day period.

2.6. Taxes; Withholding, etc.

(a) All sums payable by any Credit Party hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall (except to the extent required by Requirement of Law) be paid free and clear of, and without any deduction or withholding on account of, any Tax imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any Governmental Authority. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay, and shall indemnify and hold Lender harmless from, Other Taxes, and within thirty (30) days after the date of paying such sum, Borrower shall furnish to Lender the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(b) If any Credit Party or any other Person is required by Requirement of Law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any Tax from any sum paid or payable by any Credit Party to Lender under any of the Loan Documents: (i) Borrower shall notify Lender of any such requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as reasonably practicable after Borrower becomes aware of it; (ii) Borrower shall make any such withholding or deduction; (iii) Borrower shall pay any such Tax before the date on which penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to pay is imposed on any Credit Party) for its own account or (if that liability is imposed on Lender, as the case may be) on behalf of and in the name of Lender in accordance with applicable Law; (iv) if the Tax is an Indemnified Tax, the sum payable by such Credit Party in respect of which the relevant deduction, withholding or payment of Indemnified Tax is required shall be increased to the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that deduction, withholding or payment (including any deductions for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.6(b)), Lender receives on the due date a net sum equal to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or payment of Indemnified Tax been required or made; and (v) within thirty (30) days after paying any sum from which it is required by Requirement of

 

- 4 -


Law to make any deduction or withholding, and within thirty (30) days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by clause (ii) or (iii) above to pay, Borrower shall deliver to Lender evidence reasonably satisfactory to Lender of such deduction, withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant taxing or other Governmental Authority. Borrower shall indemnify Lender for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.6(b)) paid by Lender and any liability (including penalties, interest and reasonable expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Any indemnification payment pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be made within thirty (30) days from written demand therefor.

(c) Each Lender that is organized under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof shall deliver to Borrower two copies of United States Internal Revenue Service Form W-9. If Lender is not a “United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the IRC) for U.S. federal income Tax purposes, Lender shall deliver, and shall cause each applicable assignee thereof to deliver, to Borrower, on or prior to, the Effective Date and, the date on which a Lender Transfer occurs, as applicable, and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Borrower (in the reasonable exercise of its discretion), two (2) properly completed and duly executed original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E, W-8ECI or W-8IMY (along with Form W-9, W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN for each beneficial owner that will receive, directly or indirectly, a payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents), or any successor forms, and such other documentation required under the IRC and reasonably requested by Borrower to establish the appropriate amount of any deduction or withholding of United States federal Tax, if any, with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents, including any such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower as may be necessary for Borrower to comply with its obligations under FATCA. If Lender is required to deliver any forms, statements, certificates or other evidence with respect to United States federal Tax or backup withholding matters pursuant to this Section 2.6(c), Lender hereby agrees, from time to time after the initial delivery by Lender of such forms, certificates or other evidence, whenever a lapse in time, change in circumstances or law, or additional guidance by a Governmental Authority renders such forms, certificates or other evidence obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect, to promptly deliver to Borrowers two (2) new original copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN, W-8BEN-E W-8ECI, W-9 or W-8IMY (along with Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, W-8BEN-E or W-8BEN for each beneficial owner for whom it expects to receive a payment), or any successor form, as the case may be, properly completed and duly executed by Lender, and such other documentation required under the IRC and reasonably requested by Borrower to confirm or establish the extent to which Lender is or is not subject to deduction, backup withholding or withholding of United States federal Tax with respect to payments to Lender under the Loan Documents, or notify Borrowers of its inability under applicable Requirement of Law to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence. If Lender is claiming an exemption from United States withholding Tax pursuant to the “portfolio interest exemption”, it shall provide Borrower with the applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W-8 and a certificate as reasonably requested by Borrower certifying Lender’s entitlement thereto. Borrower shall not be required to pay any additional amount to Lender under Section 2.6(b)(iii) if Lender shall have failed (1) to timely deliver to Borrower the forms, certificates or other evidence referred to in this Section 2.6(c) (each of which shall be complete, accurate and duly executed), or (2) to notify Borrowers of its inability to deliver any such forms, certificates or other evidence, as the case may be; provided, if Lender shall have satisfied the requirements of the second sentence of this Section 2.6(c) on the Effective Date (or on the date such Lender initially acquires an interest in a Term Loan), nothing in this last sentence of this Section 2.6(c) shall relieve Borrower of its obligations to pay any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.6 in the event that, solely as a result of any change in any Requirement of Law, or any change in the interpretation, administration or application thereof by any applicable Governmental Authority, Lender is no longer legally entitled to deliver forms, certificates or other evidence at a subsequent date establishing the fact that Lender is not subject to withholding as described herein and in the forms, certificates or other evidence initially provided by Lender.

(d) If any party hereto determines that it has received a refund of any Taxes or a credit or offset for any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.6 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.6), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund, credit or offset (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, under this Section 2.6 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to

 

- 5 -


such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (d) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay, credit or offset such refund to such Governmental Authority and the requirement to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority is not due to the indemnified party’s failure to timely provide complete and accurate Internal Revenue Service forms and other documentation required pursuant to Section 2.6(c) and Section 2.8. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (d), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (d) if the payment of such amount would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This clause (d) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

2.7. Additional Consideration . As additional consideration for the making of the Term Loans, Borrower shall pay to Lender the following amounts (“Additional Consideration”) as follows:

(a) On the Tranche A Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the product of the Tranche A Loan Amount and 0.01.

(b) Additionally, in the event the Tranche B Loan is made on the Tranche B Closing Date, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the product of the Tranche B Loan Amount and 0.01.

(c) Additionally, on each Payment Date on which a repayment pursuant to Section 2.2(b) or a prepayment pursuant to Section 2.2(d), Section 9.1(a) or otherwise is made, Borrower shall pay to Lender an amount equal to the product of (i) 0.05 multiplied by (ii) the amount of such repayment or prepayment, but excluding any accrued and unpaid interest that has been capitalized in accordance with Section 2.3(a).

(d) The obligations of Borrower under this Section 2.7 to pay Additional Consideration shall survive any and all prepayments by Borrower.

2.8. Evidence of Debt; Register; Lender’s Books and Records; Term Loan Notes.

(a) Lender’s Evidence of Debt; Register. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Borrower hereby designates Lender to serve as Borrower’s agent solely for purposes of maintaining at all times at Lender’s principal office a “book entry system” as described in IRC Treasury Regulation Section 5f.103-1(c)(1)(ii) that identifies each beneficial owner that is entitled to a payment of principal and stated interest on a Term Loan (the “Register”) so that each Term Loan is at all times in “registered form” as described in IRC Treasury Regulations Section 5f.103-1(c). Lender is hereby authorized by Borrower to record in the manual or data processing records of Lender, the date and amount of each advance and the amount of the outstanding Obligations and the date and amount of each repayment of principal and each payment of interest or otherwise on account of the Obligations. Absent manifest error, such Lender records shall be conclusive as to the outstanding principal amount of the total outstanding Obligations, and the payment of interest, principal and other sums due hereunder; provided, however, that the failure of Lender to make any such record entry with respect to any payment shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Borrower under the Loan Documents. All Term Loans: (i) shall, pursuant to this clause (a), be also registered as to both principal and any stated interest with Borrower or its agent, and (ii) may be transferred by Lender only by (1) surrender of the old instrument and either (x) the reissuance by Borrower of the old instrument to the new Lender or (y) the issuance by Borrower of a new instrument to the new Lender, or (2) confirmation with Borrower that the right to the principal and stated interest on the applicable Term Loan is maintained through the book entry system kept by Lender. Lender represents that any interest that may become due and owing under this Agreement qualifies for the portfolio interest exception from withholding on interest payments pursuant to IRC Sections 871(h) and 881(c).

(b) Term Loan Notes. If so requested by Lender, by written notice to Borrower on the Effective Date, or at any time thereafter, Borrower shall execute and deliver to Lender and/or, if applicable and if so specified in such notice, to any Person who is an assignee of such Lender pursuant to Section 13.1 on the Effective Date (or, if such notice is delivered after the Effective Date, promptly after Borrower’s receipt of such notice) a Term Loan Note to evidence such Lender’s Term Loan.

There are and, to the knowledge of each Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, have been, no conditions, occurrences, or Hazardous Materials Activities which could reasonably be expected to form the basis of an Environmental Claim against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

5.12. Regulatory Compliance. No Credit Party is an “investment company” or a company “controlled” by an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No Credit Party is engaged as one of its important activities in extending credit for margin stock (under Regulations X, T and U of the Federal Reserve Board). Each Credit Party has complied in all material respects with the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. Each of Borrower and its Subsidiaries and each of their respective ERISA Affiliates is in compliance with the applicable provisions of ERISA and the IRC and the regulations and published interpretations thereunder, except where such failure to comply could not reasonably be expected to result in any material liability of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or their respective ERISA Affiliates. No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events, could reasonably be expected to result in material liability of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective ERISA Affiliates or the imposition of a Lien on any of the property of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 87) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed by more than $250,000 the fair market value of the property of all such underfunded Plans. Using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with subpart I of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of Borrower or its Subsidiaries or their respective ERISA Affiliates to all Multiemployer Plans in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Multiemployer Plan, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

5.13. Margin Stock.

No Credit Party owns any Margin Stock, and none of the proceeds of the Credit Extensions or other extensions of credit under this Agreement will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purpose of reducing or retiring any Indebtedness that was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or for any other purpose that might cause any of the Term Loans or other extensions of credit under this Agreement to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulations T, U or X of the Federal Reserve Board. No Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries will take or permit to be taken any action that might cause any Loan Document to violate any regulation of the Federal Reserve Board.

5.14. Subsidiaries; Investments; Affiliate Transactions. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries owns any stock, partnership interest or other equity securities except for Permitted Investments.

Borrower does not own or control, directly or indirectly, any interest in any Person and is not a participant in any joint venture, partnership or similar arrangement.

5.15. Employee Matters. Neither Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries is engaged in any unfair labor practice that could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. There is (a) no unfair labor practice complaint pending against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened against any of them before the National Labor Relations Board and no grievance or arbitration proceeding arising out of or under any collective bargaining agreement that is so pending against Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened against any of them, (b) no strike or work stoppage in existence or, to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, threatened involving Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, and (c) to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, no union representation question existing with respect to the employees of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries and, to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, no union organization activity that is taking place that, individually or together with any other matter specified in clause (a) or (b) above or this clause (c), could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change.

5.17. Full Disclosure. No representation or warranty of any Credit Party contained in any Loan Document or in any other documents, certificates or written statements furnished to Lender by or on behalf of any Credit Party for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (to the knowledge of any Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries, in the case of any document not furnished by it) necessary in order to make the statements contained herein or therein, not misleading in light of the circumstances in which the same were made. Any projections and pro forma financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith estimates and assumptions believed by the Credit Party furnishing such materials to be reasonable at the time made. There are no facts known (or which should upon the reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to any Credit Party (other than matters of a general economic nature) that, individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change and that have not been disclosed herein or in such other documents, certificates and statements furnished to Lender for use in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

No part of the proceeds of the Credit Extensions will be used, directly or indirectly, for any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977.

In the event that the Credit Parties fail to comply with the trailing twelve-month Net Sales set forth in this Section 7.18 as of the last day of any such fiscal quarter, any cash contribution to Borrower funded with the proceeds of the issuance (or capital contribution on account of) capital stock or other Equity Interests (including in connection with a Qualified IPO) on or prior to the day that is forty-five (45) Business Days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for such fiscal quarter (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any issuance or capital contribution (including in connection with a Qualified IPO) made prior to the Credit Parties’ failure to comply with the trailing twelve-month Net Sales set forth in this Section 7.18), will, at the irrevocable election of Borrower, be included in the calculation of Net Sales for the purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.18 at the end of such fiscal quarter (each, a “Cure Quarter”) and any subsequent period that includes such Cure Quarter (any such cash contribution, a “Specified Cash Contribution”); provided that written notice of Borrower’s irrevocable election to utilize a Specified Cash Contribution shall be delivered by Borrower to Lender no later than the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for the applicable fiscal quarter. Upon Lender’s receipt of written notice from Borrower of its irrevocable election to utilize a Specified Cash Contribution pursuant to this Section 7.18 no later than the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered for the applicable fiscal quarter, then, until the day that is forty-five (45) Business Days after such date, (i) any Event of Default arising under this Section 7.18 in respect of the period ending on the last day of such fiscal quarter (the “Specified Default”) shall be deemed not to exist, (ii) Lender shall not exercise (or attempt to exercise) the right to accelerate the Term Loans and (iii) Lender shall not exercise (or attempt to exercise) any right to foreclose on or take possession of the Collateral, in each case solely on the basis of the Specified Default if, and only if, an amount of such Specified Cash Contribution equal to the difference between the applicable trailing twelve-month Net Sales set forth in this Section 7.18 and the actual trailing twelve-month Net Sales is utilized to prepay the Term Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of the provisions of Section 2.2 (except for the provisions of Section 2.2(d)(i) prohibiting partial prepayments and the Section 2.2(d)(i)(C) partial prepayment amount requirements), including to pay any fees or costs associated with such prepayment (the “Cure Amount”). If the Specified Cash Contribution takes place in satisfaction of the requirements set forth above and is utilized to prepay the Term Loans as provided above, then Borrower shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements of the covenants set forth in this Section 7.18 as of the applicable date of determination with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) the amount of any Specified Cash Contribution in excess of the Cure Amount may be included, at the option of Borrower, in the calculation of Net Sales for purposes of determining compliance with this Section 7.18 in any subsequent fiscal quarter if, and only if, such amount is utilized to prepay the Term Loans as provided in this Section 7.18 and (ii) an amount equal to any cash contribution to Borrower funded with the proceeds of a Qualified IPO will constitute a

 

- 34 -


Specified Cash Contribution and be available to be utilized to prepay the Term Loans as provided in this Section 7.18 whether or not such proceeds constitute cash on Borrower’s consolidated balance sheet.

Furthermore, in the event that the Credit Parties fail to comply with the trailing twelve-month Net Sales set forth in this Section 7.18 as of the last day of any such fiscal quarter, irrespective of whether such failure constitutes an Event of Default under this Section 7.18, the Credit Parties shall test trailing twelve-month Net Sales quarterly as of the last day of each fiscal quarter following the fiscal quarter in which such failure occurs, in which case (x) the “Minimum Net Sales” target set forth above against which trailing twelve-month Net Sales is tested as of the last day of the second fiscal quarter of any fiscal year shall also be used to test trailing twelve-month Net Sales as of the last day of the third fiscal quarter of such fiscal year, and (y) the “Minimum Net Sales” target set forth above against which trailing twelve-month Net Sales is tested as of the last day of the fourth fiscal quarter of any fiscal year shall also be used to test trailing twelve-month Net Sales as of the last day of the first fiscal quarter of the following fiscal year.

  9. RIGHTS AND REMEDIES UPON AN EVENT OF DEFAULT

9.1. Rights and Remedies. While an Event of Default occurs and continues, Lender may, without notice or demand:

(a) declare all Obligations (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium) immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in Section

 

- 37 -


8.5 occurs all Obligations, including the applicable Makewhole Amount and the Prepayment Premium, are automatically and immediately due and payable without any action by Lender), whereupon all Obligations for principal, interest, premium or otherwise (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the applicable Makewhole Amount and Prepayment Premium) shall become due and payable by Borrower without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, which are all expressly waived by the Credit Parties hereby;

(b) stop advancing money or extending credit for Borrower’s benefit under this Agreement;

(c) settle or adjust disputes and claims directly with Account Debtors for amounts on terms and in any order that Lender considers advisable, notify any Person owing Borrower money of Lender’s security interest in such funds, and verify the amount of such account;

(d) make any payments and do any acts it considers necessary or reasonable to protect the Collateral and/or its security interest in the Collateral. Borrower shall assemble the Collateral if Lender requests and make it available as Lender designates. Lender may enter premises where the Collateral is located, take and maintain possession of any part of the Collateral, and pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any Lien which appears to be prior or superior to its security interest and pay all expenses incurred. Borrower grants Lender a license to enter and occupy any of its premises, without charge, to exercise any of Lender’s rights or remedies;

(e) apply to the Obligations (i) any balances and deposits of Borrower it holds, or (ii) any amount held by Lender owing to or for the credit or the account of Borrower;

(f) ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish, maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell the Collateral. Lender is hereby granted a non-exclusive, royalty-free license or other right to use, without charge, Borrower’s labels, Patents, Copyrights, mask works, rights of use of any name, trade secrets, trade names, Trademarks, and advertising matter, or any similar property as it pertains to the Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale, and selling any Collateral and, in connection with Lender’s exercise of its rights under this Section 9.1, Borrower’s rights under all licenses and all franchise agreements inure to Lender’s benefit;

(g) place a “hold” on any account maintained with Lender and/or deliver a notice of exclusive control, any entitlement order, or other directions or instructions pursuant to any Control Agreement or similar agreements providing control of any Collateral;

(h) demand and receive possession of Borrower’s Books; and

(i) exercise all rights and remedies available to Lender under the Collateral Documents or any other Loan Documents or at law or equity, including all remedies provided under the Code (including disposal of the Collateral pursuant to the terms thereof).

Lender agrees that in connection with any foreclosure or other exercise of rights under this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to the Intellectual Property, the rights of the licensees under the Permitted Licenses will not be terminated, limited or otherwise adversely affected so long as no default exists under the Permitted License in a way that would permit the licensor to terminate such Permitted License (commonly termed a non-disturbance).

9.2. Power of Attorney. Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact, exercisable upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to: (a) endorse Borrower’s name on any checks or other forms of payment or security; (b) sign Borrower’s name on any invoice or bill of lading for any Account or drafts against Account Debtors; (c) settle and adjust disputes and claims about the Accounts directly with Account Debtors, for amounts and on terms Lender determines reasonable; (d) make, settle, and adjust all claims under Borrower’s insurance policies; (e) pay, contest or settle any Lien, charge, encumbrance, security interest, and adverse claim in or to the Collateral, or any judgment based thereon, or otherwise take any action to terminate or discharge the same; and (f) transfer the Collateral into the name of Lender or a third party as the Code permits. Borrower hereby appoints Lender as its lawful attorney-in-fact to file or record any documents necessary to perfect or continue the perfection of Lender’s security interest in the Collateral regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been satisfied in full and Lender is not under any further obligation to make Credit Extensions hereunder. Lender’s foregoing appointment as

 

- 38 -


Borrower’s attorney in fact, and all of Lender’s rights and powers, coupled with an interest, are irrevocable until all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) have been fully repaid and performed and Lender’s obligation to provide Credit Extensions terminates.

9.3. Protective Payments. If Borrower fails to obtain the insurance called for by Section 6.5 or fails to pay any premium thereon or fails to pay any other amount which Borrower is obligated to pay under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, Lender may obtain such insurance or make such payment, and all amounts so paid by Lender are Lender Expenses and immediately due and payable, bearing interest at the Default Rate, and secured by the Collateral. Lender will provide Borrower with notice of Lender’s having obtained such insurance at the time it is obtained or within a reasonable time thereafter. Borrower may later cancel any insurance purchased by Lender, but only after providing Lender with evidence (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Lender) that there has been obtained insurance as required in Section 6.5. No payments by Lender are deemed an agreement to make similar payments in the future or Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default.

9.4. Application of Payments and Proceeds Upon Default. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Lender shall apply any funds in its possession, whether from Borrower account balances, payments, proceeds realized as the result of any collection of Accounts or other disposition of the Collateral, or otherwise, to the Obligations in such order as Lender shall determine in its sole discretion. Any surplus shall be paid to Borrower or other Persons legally entitled thereto; Borrower shall remain liable to Lender for any deficiency. If Lender directly or indirectly enters into a deferred payment or other credit transaction with any purchaser at any sale of Collateral, Lender shall have the option, exercisable at any time, of either reducing the Obligations by the principal amount of the purchase price or deferring the reduction of the Obligations until the actual receipt by Lender of cash therefor.

9.5. Lender’s Liability for Collateral. So long as Lender complies with Requirements of Law regarding the safekeeping of the Collateral in the possession or under the control of Lender, Lender shall not be liable or responsible for: (a) the safekeeping of the Collateral; (b) any loss or damage to the Collateral; or (c) any act or default of any carrier, warehouseman, bailee, or other Person. In no event shall Lender have any liability for any diminution in the value of the Collateral for any reason. Borrower bears all risk of loss, damage or destruction of the Collateral.

9.6. No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. Lender’s failure, at any time or times, to require strict performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall not waive, affect, or diminish any right of Lender thereafter to demand strict performance and compliance herewith or therewith. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless signed by the party granting the waiver and then is only effective for the specific instance and purpose for which it is given. Lender’s rights and remedies under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are cumulative. Lender has all rights and remedies provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. Lender’s exercise of one right or remedy is not an election and shall not preclude Lender from exercising any other remedy under this Agreement or other remedy available at law or in equity, and Lender’s waiver of any Event of Default is not a continuing waiver. Lender’s delay in exercising any remedy is not a waiver, election, or acquiescence.

9.7. Demand Waiver; Makewhole Amount; Prepayment Premium. Borrower waives demand, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment, notice of any default, nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal of accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees held by Lender on which Borrower is liable. Borrower acknowledges and agrees that if the maturity of all Obligations shall be accelerated pursuant to Section 9.1(a) by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Makewhole Amount and the Prepayment Premium shall become due and payable by Borrower upon such acceleration, whether such acceleration is automatic or is effected by Lender’s declaration thereof, as provided in Section 9.1(a), and Borrower shall pay the Makewhole Amount as compensation to Lender for the loss of its investment opportunity and not as a penalty, and Borrower waives any right to object thereto in any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding or otherwise.

  12. CHOICE OF LAW, VENUE, AND JURY TRIAL WAIVER

THE LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAW THAT COULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAW OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. Credit Parties and Lender each submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, and agrees that all claims in respect of any such action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the fullest extent permitted by Requirement of Law, in such Federal court; provided, however, that nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to operate to preclude Lender from bringing suit or taking other legal action in any other jurisdiction to realize on the Collateral or any other security for the Obligations, or to enforce a judgment or other court order in favor of Lender. Each Credit Party expressly submits and consents in advance to such jurisdiction in any action or suit commenced in any such court, and each Credit Party hereby waives any objection that it may have based upon lack of personal jurisdiction, improper venue, or forum non conveniens and hereby consents to the granting of such legal or equitable relief as is deemed appropriate by such court. Each Credit Party hereby waives personal service of the summons, complaints, and other process issued in such action or suit and agrees that service of such summons, complaints, and other process may be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such party at the address set forth in (or otherwise provided in accordance with the terms of) Section 11 of this Agreement and that service so made shall be deemed completed upon the earlier to occur of such party’s actual receipt thereof or three (3) days after deposit in the U.S. mails, proper postage prepaid.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, CREDIT PARTIES AND LENDER EACH WAIVE THEIR RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR BASED UPON THIS AGREEMENT, THE LOAN DOCUMENTS OR ANY CONTEMPLATED TRANSACTION, INCLUDING CONTRACT, TORT, BREACH OF DUTY AND ALL OTHER CLAIMS. THIS WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR ALL PARTIES TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT. EACH PARTY HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS COUNSEL.

 

  13. GENERAL PROVISIONS

13.1. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement binds and is for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Credit Party may transfer, pledge or assign this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any rights or obligations under hereunder or thereunder without Lender’s prior written consent. Lender may sell, transfer, assign or pledge this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any rights or obligations hereunder or thereunder to any third party without Borrower’s consent, including to grant a participation in all or any part of, or any interest in, Lender’s obligations, rights or benefits under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (any such sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or grant of a participation, a “Lender Transfer”) and Lender shall record such Lender Transfer in the “book entry system” maintained pursuant to Section 2.8; provided, however, that any Lender Transfer to a Restricted Transferee shall require the prior written consent of Borrower at any time in which a Default or Event of Default shall not then have occurred and be continuing. Lender shall provide Borrower notice of a Lender Transfer no later than the date on which such Lender Transfer occurs. Any attempted transfer, pledge or assignment of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any rights or obligations under hereunder or thereunder in violation of this Section 13.1 shall be null and void.

 

  13.2. Indemnification; Costs and Expenses.

(a) Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Lender and each manager, partner, director, officer, employee, agent, attorney and affiliate thereof (each such person, an “Indemnified Person”) from and against any and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, (i) no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of that Indemnified Person, in each case, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) no Credit Party shall have any obligation to

 

- 41 -


any Indemnified Person hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from a material breach of any obligation of such Indemnified Person hereunder, (iii) no Credit Party shall have any obligation to any Indemnified Person hereunder with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise from any claim by one Indemnified Person against another Indemnified Person that does not relate to any act or omission of any Credit Party, and (iv) no Credit Party shall be liable for any settlement of any claim or proceeding effected by any Indemnified Person without the prior written consent of such Credit Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with such consent or if there shall be a final judgment against an Indemnified Person, each of the Credit Parties shall indemnify and hold harmless such Indemnified Person from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment in the manner set forth in this Agreement.

(b) To the extent permitted by Requirement of Law, no Credit Party shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against Lender and its Affiliates, directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, arising out of, as a result of, or in any way related to, this Agreement or any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby or referred to herein or therein, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof or any act or omission or event occurring in connection therewith, and each Credit Party hereby waives, releases and agrees not to sue upon any such claim or any such damages, whether or not accrued and whether or not known or suspected to exist in its favor.

(c) Any action taken by any Credit Party under or with respect to any Loan Document, even if required under any Loan Document or at the request of Lender, shall be at the expense of such Credit Party, and no Secured Party shall be required under any Loan Document to reimburse any Credit Party or any Subsidiary of any Credit Party therefor except as expressly provided therein. In addition, Borrower agrees to pay or reimburse upon demand (i) Lender for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents, in connection with the investigation, development, preparation, negotiation, syndication, execution, interpretation or administration of, any modification of any term of or termination of, any Loan Document, any commitment or proposal letter therefor, any other document prepared in connection therewith or the consummation and administration of any transaction contemplated therein, (ii) Lender for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by it or any of its directors, employees, attorneys, agents or sub-agents in connection with internal audit reviews and Collateral audits and (iii) Lender and its directors, employees, attorneys, agents and sub-agents, for all costs and expenses incurred in connection with (A) any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided hereunder in the nature of a “work-out”, (B) the enforcement or preservation of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, any Obligation, with respect to the Collateral or any other related right or remedy or (C) the commencement, defense, conduct of, intervention in, or the taking of any other action with respect to, any proceeding (including any bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding) related to any Credit Party, any Subsidiary of any Credit Party, Loan Document or Obligation (or the response to and preparation for any subpoena or request for document production relating thereto), including Lender Expenses.

13.3. Severability of Provisions. In case any provision in or obligation hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

13.4. Correction of Loan Documents. Lender may correct patent errors and fill in any blanks in the Loan Documents consistent with the agreement of the parties hereto so long as Lender provides Credit Parties with written notice of such correction and allows Credit Parties at least ten (10) days to object to such correction. In the event of such objection, such correction shall not be made except by an amendment signed by Lender and Credit Parties.

13.5. Amendments in Writing; Integration.

(a) No amendment or modification of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or waiver, discharge or termination of any obligation hereunder or thereunder, no approval or consent hereunder or thereunder (including any consent by Borrower to any departure herefrom or therefrom), shall in any event be

 

- 42 -


effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by Borrower and Lender. Any waiver, approval or consent granted shall be limited to the specific circumstance expressly described in it, and shall not apply to any subsequent or other circumstance, whether similar or dissimilar, or give rise to, or evidence, any obligation or commitment to grant any further waiver, approval or consent.

(b) This Agreement and the Loan Documents represent the entire agreement about this subject matter and supersede prior negotiations or agreements. All prior agreements, understandings, representations, warranties, and negotiations between the parties about the subject matter of this Agreement and the Loan Documents merge into this Agreement and the Loan Documents.

13.6. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, is an original, and all taken together, constitute one Agreement.

13.7. Survival. All covenants, representations and warranties made in this Agreement continue in full force until this Agreement has terminated pursuant to its terms and all Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations and any other obligations which, by their terms, are to survive the termination of this Agreement) have been paid in full and satisfied. The obligation of Credit Parties in Section 13.2 to indemnify Lender shall survive until the statute of limitations with respect to such claim or cause of action shall have run.

13.8. Confidentiality. Any information regarding Credit Parties and their Subsidiaries and their businesses provided to Lender by or on behalf of any Credit Party pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed “Confidential Information”; provided, however, that Confidential Information does not include information that is either: (i) in the public domain or in Lender’s or any of its Affiliate’s possession when disclosed to Lender or any of its Affiliates, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Lender or any of its Affiliates other than as a result of a breach by Lender or any of its Affiliates of the obligations under this Section 13.8; or (ii) disclosed to Lender or any of its Affiliates by a third party if Lender or any of its Affiliates do not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information. Lender shall not disclose any Confidential Information to a third party or use Confidential Information for any purpose other than the exercise of Lender’s rights and the performance of Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents. The foregoing in this Section 13.8 notwithstanding, Lender may disclose Confidential Information: (a) to any of Lender’s Subsidiaries or Affiliates; (b) to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Credit Extensions; (c) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; (d) to the extent requested by regulators having jurisdiction over Lender or as otherwise required in connection with Lender’s examination or audit; (e) as Lender considers appropriate in exercising remedies under the Loan Documents; and (f) to third-party service providers of Lender; provided, however, that the third parties to which Confidential Information is disclosed pursuant to clauses (a), (b) and (f) are bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use that are no less restrictive than those contained herein.

The provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

13.9. Attorneys’ Fees, Costs and Expenses. In any action or proceeding between any Credit Party and Lender arising out of or relating to the Loan Documents, the prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable attorneys’ fees and other costs and expenses incurred, in addition to any other relief to which it may be entitled.

13.10. Right of Set-Off. In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under Requirement of Law and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and at any time thereafter during the continuance of any Event of Default, Lender is hereby authorized by each Credit Party at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Credit Party or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or special, including Indebtedness evidenced by certificates of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Credit Party against and on account of the obligations and liabilities of any Credit Party to Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, including all claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected hereto or with any other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (a) Lender shall have made any demand hereunder or (b) the principal of or the interest on the Term Loans or any other amounts due hereunder shall have become due and

 

- 43 -


payable pursuant to Section 2 and although such obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent or unmatured.

13.11. Marshalling; Payments Set Aside. Lender shall not be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Credit Party or any other Person or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent that any Credit Party makes a payment or payments to Lender, or Lender enforces any Liens or exercises its rights of setoff, and such payment or payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had not occurred.

13.12. Electronic Execution of Documents. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature” and words of like import in any Loan Document shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping systems, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any Requirement of Law, including any state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

13.13. Captions. Section headings herein are included herein for convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part hereof for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

13.14. Construction of Agreement. The parties hereto mutually acknowledge that they and their attorneys have participated in the preparation and negotiation of this Agreement. In cases of uncertainty this Agreement shall be construed without regard to which of the parties hereto caused the uncertainty to exist.

13.15. Third Parties. Nothing in this Agreement, whether express or implied, is intended to: (a) confer any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement on any Persons other than the express parties to it and their respective successors and permitted assigns; (b) relieve or discharge the obligation or liability of any Person not an express party to this Agreement; or (c) give any Person not an express party to this Agreement any right of subrogation or action against any party to this Agreement.

13.16. No Fiduciary Duty. Lender may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Credit Parties. Each Credit Party agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries, and any of their respective stockholders or affiliates, on the other hand. Each Credit Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Lender, on the one hand, and such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates, on the other, (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading to such transaction, Lender is acting solely as a principal and not the agent or fiduciary of such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates, management, stockholders, creditors or any other person, (iii) Lender has not assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether Lender or any of its affiliates has advised or is currently advising such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (iv) each Credit Party, its Subsidiaries and their respective affiliates have consulted their own legal and financial advisors to the extent each deemed appropriate. Each Credit Party further acknowledges and agrees that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Credit Party agrees that it will not claim that Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Credit Party, its Subsidiaries or their respective affiliates in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.
