5

 
 
 
 
(2)
from and after the date of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement and subject to the terms of clause (i) of Section 12.5(i), solely for purposes of calculating all Commitments, Letter of Credit Liabilities and Commitment Percentages of the Unrestricted Subsidiary and the other Lenders only, and for purposes of calculating the allocation of any prepayments of Revolving Loans, the principal amount of all Retired Loans shall be deemed to be outstanding; and
 
 
 
(3)
no Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement shall increase, decrease or otherwise affect the Commitment Percentage or participation interest in any Letter of Credit or any Swingline Loan of the Unrestricted Subsidiary or any other Lender as they exist immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement (with respect to the Unrestricted Subsidiary and each other Lender, its “Retirement Date Commitment Percentage”) and, from and after the date of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement, (i) the Commitment Percentage of the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall equal the Retirement Date Commitment Percentage of the Unrestricted Subsidiary on the date immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement and (ii) the aggregate Commitment Percentage of the other Lenders shall equal the aggregate Retirement Date Commitment Percentage of such other Lenders on the date immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement.
 
 
 
(iii)
Subordination.  All Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans shall immediately and automatically become fully and completely junior and subordinate in both payment and priority to the Loans or portions thereof and all other Obligations held by the other Lenders.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not receive, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall make, any payment in cash or otherwise (including principal, interest and fees) on account of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan until all outstanding Loans and Obligations owed to Agent and the other Lenders have been repaid in full and all Commitments (other than the Commitment of the Unrestricted Subsidiary), and this Agreement (other than with respect to the Unrestricted Subsidiary), have all been terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, and any payments received by the Unrestricted Subsidiary in contravention of the foregoing shall be held in trust for the Agent and the Lenders and delivered to the Agent promptly upon receipt; provided, however, that the Borrower may, from time to time, make “Deemed Repayments” on Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans, as defined in and in accordance with clause (vi) below.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary waives any rights to a pro-rata share or any other share of any payment of any amount under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it may otherwise be entitled and further waives any rights it may have under Sections 3.2 and 3.3.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary further agrees that it shall not exercise any right of set-off or recoupment it may have hereunder or under Applicable Law.
 
 
(iv)
Funding of Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans; Net Funding.  All Revolving Loans shall be made pursuant to Section 2.1; provided, however, subject to
 
 
6

 
 
 
 
 
clause (v) below, (1) all fundings of Revolving Loans by Lenders under the Credit Agreement after the date of the First Amendment shall be net of the pro rata share of such Revolving Loans that is required to be funded by the Unrestricted Subsidiary and (2) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be permitted to fund such pro rata share of each Revolving Loan directly to the Borrower.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not have the right to make or offer to make any Bid Rate Loans.  In no event shall any Lender be required to make any Revolving Loan in excess of its Commitment.
 
 
 
(v)
Funding of Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit.  (a) Prior to or simultaneously with the Borrower delivering any Notice of Swingline Borrowing under Section 2.3 or the issuance of a Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower under Section 2.4, in each case subsequent to the Unrestricted Subsidiary acquiring an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, and (b) with respect to any Swingline Loan and/or any Letter of Credit outstanding on or prior to the date the Unrestricted Subsidiary acquires an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall deposit with Agent all amounts that the Unrestricted Subsidiary may be required to fund as a Lender under such Sections as determined by the Agent in its reasonable discretion.  On the date that any Swingline Loan is funded, or if a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs, as applicable, the Agent is authorized to use the monies deposited pursuant to this clause (v) to fund the Unrestricted Subsidiary’s share of such Swingline Loan or drawing, or to make payment to the Agent in accordance with Section 2.4, as applicable and on such date the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have made Revolving Loans to the Borrower in an amount equal to the amount applied by the Agent pursuant to this sentence.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, Lenders other than the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not in any event be liable in any way for the Unrestricted Subsidiary’s failure to fund amounts that it is required to fund as a Lender under the Loan Documents.  To the extent that any interest or other amounts shall accrue on the amounts deposited pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (v), they shall accrue for the benefit of and shall be paid to the Unrestricted Subsidiary.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall pay to the Agent from time to time such fees as the Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Agent's administration of the account into which such amounts are deposited.
 
 
 
(vi)
Optional and Mandatory Prepayments and Repayments; Application.  Any payment or repayment of the principal of Revolving Loans (including any deemed repayments made to the Unrestricted Subsidiary) made by the Borrower shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.2.  In calculating the application of such payments and taking into account the agreement of the Unrestricted Subsidiary to subordinate its receipt of payments on the Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans, the aggregate amount of any payment or repayment of the principal amount of Revolving Loans made by the Borrower shall consist of (x) a cash component equal to the full amount paid by the Borrower to be distributed to the Lenders (other than the Unrestricted Subsidiary) on account of their respective Revolving Loans (the “Cash Repayment”) and (y) a deemed payment or repayment of principal of the Revolving Loans (each, a “Deemed Repayment”) held by the Unrestricted Subsidiary.
 
 
 
7

 
 
 
 
Each Deemed Repayment shall be in an amount equal to (A) the applicable Cash Repayment, multiplied by (B) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Unrestricted Subsidiary's Commitment Percentage and the denominator of which is the aggregate Commitment Percentage of the other Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment or prepayment in respect of any Revolving Loans, the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans shall not be held by the Lenders (including the Unrestricted Subsidiary) pro rata in accordance with their Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment or repayment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans of the Lenders (other than the Unrestricted Subsidiary) in such manner as shall result, as nearly as practicable, in the outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans being held by such Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided, however, the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall only receive Deemed Repayments and shall not receive any payments in cash until all amounts owing to the other Lenders have been paid in full and their Commitments have been terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
 
 
 
(vii)
Unrestricted Subsidiary Purchase Procedure.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be permitted to purchase any portion of any Loan or Commitment from a Lender unless (1) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall have complied with the purchase procedures described on Exhibit R attached hereto and made a part hereof and (2) no Event of Default or any default (following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period) of any of the covenants and agreements set forth in Annex 2 to each Unrestricted Subsidiary Assignment Agreement then exists or would result from the consummation of any such purchase.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be permitted to acquire any participations in any Loan or Commitment pursuant to Section 12.5(d).  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be subject to the covenants and agreements set forth on Annex 2 to each Unrestricted Subsidiary Assignment Agreement.
 
 
 
(viii)
Bankruptcy Matters.  Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Sections 10.1(f) or 10.1(g) (each such event a “Proceeding”), (1) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not have any enforcement rights relating to any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, (2) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be treated as a separate class of creditors for all purposes under, and during the course of, such Proceeding, subordinate to and separate and apart from Agent and the other Lenders and (3) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not vote on any proposed plan of reorganization in any Proceeding and shall not oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of the Borrower that is supported by the Requisite Lenders and shall not support any sale of disposition of any assets of the Borrower that is opposed by the Requisite Lenders, and the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to have either consented or withheld consent in accordance with this clause (3) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended.
 
 
 
(ix)
No Resale By Unrestricted Subsidiary.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be permitted to sell, assign or otherwise transfer (whether by participation or
 
 
 
8

 
 
 
 
 
otherwise) any portion of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans held by the Unrestricted Subsidiary or any interest therein.
 
 
 
(x)
Interest.  No Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan shall accrue interest.
 
 
 
(xi)
Compensation.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any compensation or any other payments pursuant to Sections 3.12, 4.1, 4.4 or 12.9.
 
 
 
(xii)
Restriction on the Sale or Pledge of Equity Interests, etc. of Unrestricted Subsidiary.  The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of, or pledge or grant any Lien on, any Equity Interests of the Unrestricted Subsidiary.
 
 
7.
Total Return Swaps.  The Borrower shall only be a counterparty, and shall only permit the Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower to be a counterparty, to any pledge, assignment or transfer of the interest of any Lender, fully or in any part, in any Loan, Commitment or portion thereof via any agreement, financial instrument or other assignment that replicates loan payments under the Credit Agreement and/or provides for a transfer or assumption of any portion of economic, legal or other risk of any such loan payments, if such Lender agrees that:
 
 
 
(a)
such Lender shall deliver written notice (which notice shall include a disclosure of all Persons that are party to such transaction) of such pledge, assignment or transfer to Agent for dissemination on or prior to the date that such transaction is effectuated; and
 
 
 
(b)
such Lender shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as if it was, an Unrestricted Subsidiary (notwithstanding the definition thereof) solely with respect to the Loan or Commitment so pledged, assigned or transferred, and such pledged, assigned or transferred Loan or Commitment shall be deemed to be, and shall be treated as if it was, an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan (notwithstanding the definition thereof).
 
 
 
If the Borrower, the Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Affiliate of the Borrower shall become a counterparty to any such pledge, assignment or transfer in contravention of this Section 7, the same shall result in an immediate Event of Default.

8.           Immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or a default of the provisions of this Annex 2, the outstanding principal amount of all Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans shall be immediately and without further action extinguished and retired (an “Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement”) and the Assignee shall thereafter not have any further rights as a Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans that are the subject of an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement (the “Retired Loans”), subject to the following:

(a)           all Commitments and Letter of Credit Liabilities associated with Retired Loans and all obligations of the Assignee in connection with such Retired Loans shall remain in full force and effect after an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement; provided, that no subsequent funding made by the Assignee pursuant to such Commitments and Letter of Credit Liabilities shall be deemed to be a Loan for the purposes of this Agreement and any such subsequent funding and/or Obligation relating to such funding shall instead be deemed to be immediately extinguished and retired;

(b)           from and after the date of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement and subject to the terms of paragraph 7 above, solely for purposes of calculating all Commitments, Letter of Credit Liabilities and Commitment Percentages of the Assignee and the other Lenders only, and for purposes of calculating the allocation of any prepayments of Revolving Loans, the principal amount of all Retired Loans shall be deemed to be outstanding; and

(c)           no Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement shall increase, decrease or otherwise affect the Commitment Percentage or participation interest in any Letter of Credit or any Swingline Loan of the Assignee or any other Lender as they exist immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement (with respect to the Assignee and each other Lender, its “Retirement Date Commitment Percentage”) and, from and after the date of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement, (i) the Commitment Percentage of the Assignee shall equal the Retirement Date Commitment Percentage of the Unrestricted Subsidiary on the date immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement and (ii) the
 
 
 

 
 
aggregate Commitment Percentage of the other Lenders shall equal the aggregate Retirement Date Commitment Percentage of such other Lenders on the date immediately prior to the applicable Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan Retirement.

9.           All Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans shall immediately and automatically become fully and completely junior and subordinate in both payment and priority to the Loans or portions thereof and all other Obligations held by the other Lenders.  The Assignee shall not receive, and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall make, any payment in cash or otherwise (including principal, interest and fees) on account of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan until all outstanding Loans and Obligations owed to Agent and the other Lenders have been repaid in full and all Commitments (other than the Commitment of the Assignee), and the Credit Agreement (other than with respect to the Assignee), have all been terminated in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and any payments received by the Unrestricted Subsidiary in contravention of the foregoing shall be held in trust for the Agent and the Lenders and delivered to the Agent promptly upon receipt; provided, however, that the Borrower may, from time to time, make Deemed Repayments on Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans, as defined in and in accordance with paragraph 12 below.  The Unrestricted Subsidiary waives any rights to a pro-rata share or any other share of any payment of any amount under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document to which it may otherwise be entitled and further waives any rights it may have under Sections 3.2 and 3.3 of the Credit Agreement.

10.           All Revolving Loans shall be made pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Credit Agreement; provided, however, subject to paragraph 11 below, (1) all fundings of Revolving Loans by Lenders under the Credit Agreement after the date of the First Amendment shall be net of the pro rata share of such Revolving Loans that is required to be funded by the Assignee and (2) the Assignee shall be permitted to fund such pro rata share of each Revolving Loan directly to the Borrower.  The Assignee shall not have the right to make or offer to make any Bid Rate Loans.

11.           (a) Prior to or simultaneously with the Borrower delivering any Notice of Swingline Borrowing under Section 2.3 of the Credit Agreement or the issuance of a Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower under Section 2.4 of the Credit Agreement, in each case subsequent to the Assignee acquiring an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, and (b) with respect to any Swingline Loan and/or any Letter of Credit outstanding on or prior to the date the Assignee acquires an Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, the Assignee shall deposit with Agent all amounts that the Assignee may be required to fund as a Lender under such Sections as determined by the Agent in its reasonable discretion.  On the date that any Swingline Loan is funded, or if a drawing pursuant to any Letter of Credit occurs, as applicable, the Agent is authorized to use the monies deposited pursuant to this paragraph 11 to fund the Assignee’s share of such Swingline Loan or drawing, or to make payment to the Agent in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Credit Agreement, as applicable and on such date the Assignee shall be deemed to have made Revolving Loans to the Borrower in an amount equal to the amount applied by the Agent pursuant to this sentence.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, Lenders other than the Assignee shall not in any event be liable in any way for the Assignee’s failure to fund amounts that it is required to fund as a Lender under the Loan Documents.  To the extent that any interest or other amounts shall accrue on the amounts deposited pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph 11, they shall accrue for the benefit of and shall be paid to the Unrestricted Subsidiary.  Assignee shall pay to the Agent from time to time such fees as the Agent normally charges for similar services in connection with the Agent's administration of the account into which such amounts are deposited.
 
12.           Any payment or repayment of the principal of Revolving Loans (including any deemed repayments made to the Assignee) made by the Borrower shall be applied in accordance with Section 3.2 of the Credit Agreement.  In calculating the application of such payments and taking into account the agreement of the Assignee to subordinate its receipt of payments on the Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans,
 
 
 

 
 
the aggregate amount of any payment or repayment of the principal amount of Revolving Loans made by the Borrower shall consist of (x) a cash component equal to the full amount paid by the Borrower to be distributed to the Lenders (other than the Assignee) on account of their respective Revolving Loans (the “Cash Repayment”) and (y) a deemed payment or repayment of principal of the Revolving Loans (each, a “Deemed Repayment”) held by the Assignee.  The Assignee further agrees that it shall not exercise any right of set-off or recoupment it may have under the Credit Agreement or under Applicable Law.
 
Each Deemed Repayment shall be in an amount equal to (A) the applicable Cash Repayment, multiplied by (B) an amount equal to (1) the Assignee's Commitment Percentage divided by (2) the aggregate Commitment Percentage of the other Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, if immediately prior to giving effect to any such payment or prepayment in respect of any Revolving Loans, the outstanding principal amount of Revolving Loans of the Lenders shall not be held by the Lenders (including the Assignee) pro rata in accordance with their Commitments in effect at the time such Revolving Loans were made, then such payment or repayment shall be applied to the Revolving Loans of the Lenders (other than the Assignee) in such manner as shall result, as nearly as practicable, in the outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans being held by such Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments; provided, however, the Assignee shall only receive Deemed Repayments and shall not receive any payments in cash until all amounts owing to the other Lenders have been paid in full and their Commitments have been terminated in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.


13.           The Assignee shall not purchase any portion of any Loan or Commitment from a Lender unless (1) the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall have complied with the purchase procedures described on Exhibit R attached to the Credit Agreement and (2) no Event of Default or any default (following the expiration of any applicable notice and cure period) of any of the covenants and agreements set forth in this Annex 2 then exists or would result from the consummation of any such purchase.  The Assignee shall not acquire any participations in any Loan or Commitment pursuant to Section 12.5(d) of the Credit Agreement.

14.           Upon the occurrence of any of the events described in Sections 10.1(f) or 10.1(g) of the Credit Agreement (each such event a “Proceeding”), (1) the Assignee shall not have any enforcement rights relating to any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan, (2) the Assignee shall be treated as a separate class of creditors for all purposes under, and during the course of, such Proceeding, subordinate to and separate and apart from Agent and the other Lenders and (3) the Assignee shall not vote on any proposed plan of reorganization in any Proceeding and shall not oppose any sale or disposition of any assets of the Borrower that is supported by the Requisite Lenders and shall not support any sale of disposition of any assets of the Borrower that is opposed by the Requisite Lenders, and the Assignee shall be deemed to have either consented or withheld consent in accordance with this clause (3) under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as amended.

15.           The Assignee shall not sell, assign or otherwise transfer (whether by participation or otherwise) any portion of any Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans held by it, or any interest therein.

16.           No Unrestricted Subsidiary Loan shall accrue interest.

17.           The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be entitled to any compensation or any other payments pursuant to Sections 3.12, 4.1, 4.4 or 12.9 of the Credit Agreement.

18.           The Assignee shall not:

 
 

 
 
 
(a)           incur, assume, or otherwise become obligated in respect of any Indebtedness;

(b)           create, assume, or incur any Lien upon any of its properties, assets, income or profits of any character whether now owned or hereafter acquired;

(c)           directly or indirectly, acquire, make or purchase any Investment, or own or acquire any property or asset other than the Unrestricted Subsidiary Loans; or

(d)           enter into any transaction of merger or consolidation, liquidate, wind up or dissolve itself (or suffer any liquidation or dissolution) or convey, sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of, in one transaction or a series of transactions, all or substantially all of its business or assets.

The Unrestricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed to be in default for failing to perform any term or covenant set forth in this Annex 2 (except for the terms and covenants set forth in paragraphs 13, 15 and 18 above, the failure with which to comply shall be deemed to be an immediate default for purposes of this Annex 2) unless and until the Unrestricted Subsidiary shall continue such failure for a period of 30 days after the earlier of (x) the date upon which a Responsible Officer of the Unrestricted Subsidiary obtains knowledge of such failure or (y) the date upon which the Unrestricted Subsidiary has received written notice of such failure from the Agent.

The offer to purchase (as set forth herein, the “Purchase Offer”) Loans and Commitments (each as defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined herein)) will expire at [TIME], New York City time, on [DATE] (the “Expiration Time”).  Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement) owning Loans and Commitments seeking to accept the Purchase Offer must send in via facsimile or email to the attention of [_________] an offer in the form of Annex A hereto (the “Sale Offer”) and a validly executed Assignment and Assumption Agreement in the form of Annex B hereto, in each case prior to the Expiration Time.

Subject to the terms and conditions in this Notice of an Offer to Purchase, the Outline of Auction Mechanics attached hereto (the “Auction Mechanics”) and the related documents (collectively, the “Offer Documents”), [INSERT NAME OF UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY] (“we”, “us” or “Purchaser”) is offering to purchase for cash $[____] (such amount, the “Maximum Offer Amount”) in aggregate principal face amount of Loans and Commitments outstanding under the Credit Agreement at a purchase price not greater than $[___] (such amount, the “Maximum Purchase Price”) nor less than $[___] (such amount, the “Minimum Purchase Price”) per $1,000 principal face amount at a price determined by the “Modified Dutch Auction” procedures described below.  The Purchaser may increase the Maximum Offer Amount at any time, and from time to time, prior to the fifth Business Day after Agent has initially determined the Clearing Price (as defined below).  If the Purchaser so elects, Agent, in consultation with the Purchaser, shall re-determine the Clearing Price based on such increased Maximum Offer Amount.

Under the “Modified Dutch Auction” procedures we are using, Agent (defined below) in consultation with us will select the lowest purchase price (the “Clearing Price”) that will allow us to purchase the Maximum Offer Amount (or such lesser amount of Loans and Commitments for which we have received the aggregate Sale Offers), at prices not greater than the Maximum Purchase Price nor less than the Minimum Purchase Price per $1,000 principal face amount. First, to the extent the Purchaser elects to purchase Loans and Commitments, the principal amount of all validly tendered Loans and Commitments for which Sale Offers are received at a price lower than the Clearing Price will be purchased at the purchase price specified by such participating Lender, and such tendered principal amounts will not be subject to pro ration, and thereafter, the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered at the Clearing Price will be acquired at such Clearing Price, subject to the pro ration procedures set forth below.  We will not purchase any principal amount of Loans and Commitments validly tendered at a price above the Clearing Price.  In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Loans and Commitments for which validly executed Sale Offers and Assignment and Assumption Agreements are received (prior to the Expiration Time) exceeds the Maximum Offer Amount and the Purchaser elects to purchase Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Purchase Offer, the Purchaser will purchase the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered by the Lenders
 
 
 

 
 
below the Clearing Price first, and then to the extent of the remaining amounts under the Maximum Offer Amount, the Purchaser will purchase the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered by the Lenders at the Clearing Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts of such tendered Loans and Commitments.

Note that not all of the principal amount of Loans and Commitments accepted for purchase in the Purchase Offer will be purchased at the Clearing Price.  If a participating Lender specifies an offer price for the principal amount of a Loan and Commitments that is less than the Clearing Price, such Lender will first receive for such principal amount the purchase price specified by such participating Lender and such tendered principal amount will not be subject to proration.  Only the principal amount of Loans and Commitments tendered at the Clearing Price will be subject to proration.

We intend to disseminate announcements in respect of any amendment, cancellation or termination of the Purchase Offer or extension of the Expiration Time or any other relevant matter to you through Wachovia Bank, National Association, in its capacity as administrative agent (“Agent”) under that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of June 28, 2007 (as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”; all capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Credit Agreement).  Neither Agent nor any of its affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the information concerning us or our affiliates contained in the Offer Documents or for any failure by us to disclose events that may have occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information.

NONE OF THE PURCHASER AND AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES MAKES ANY RECOMMENDATION PURSUANT TO THE OFFER DOCUMENTS AS TO WHETHER OR NOT LENDERS SHOULD SELL THEIR LOANS TO THE PURCHASER PURSUANT TO THE OFFER DOCUMENTS. EACH LENDER SHOULD MAKE ITS OWN DECISION AS TO WHETHER TO SELL ANY OF ITS LOANS AND IF SO, THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF, AND WITH RESPECT TO SALES, THE PRICE TO BE SOUGHT FOR, SUCH LOANS.

OUTLINE OF AUCTION MECHANICS
 
 
The Offer Documents contain important information that should be read carefully before any decision is made with respect to the Purchase Offer. None of the Purchaser, its Board of Directors, Agent or any of their respective affiliates makes any recommendation as to whether Lenders should participate in the Purchase Offer. Lenders must make their own decisions as to whether to participate in the Purchase Offer. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Outline of Auction Mechanics have the meanings assigned to them in the Notice of an Offer to Purchase. The terms of this outline may be updated, supplemented or modified with the consent of the Purchaser and the Agent; provided that the Agent reserves the right to consult with the Lenders with respect to any such updates, supplements or modifications.

The Purchaser
[INSERT NAME OF UNRESTRICTED SUBSIDIARY] (the “Purchaser”).
 
Loans and Commitments
All Loans and Commitments outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
 
The Purchase Offer
The Purchaser is offering to purchase for cash, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below and in the Offer Documents, any and all of the Loans and Commitments from Lenders (as set forth herein, the “Purchase Offer”).
 
The Purchase Offer is not conditioned on any minimum aggregate principal amount of Loans and Commitments being offered by Lenders for sale (other than the Minimum Assignment Amount (as defined herein)).  If the Purchaser elects to purchase Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Purchase Offer and less than the aggregate principal amount of Loans and Commitments that the Purchaser is seeking to purchase are offered for sale by Participating Lenders (defined below), the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments validly tendered at or below the Clearing Price will be accepted and the applicable price up to the Clearing Price will be
paid to such tendering Lenders.
 
In the event that the aggregate principal amount of Loans and Commitments for which validly tendered Sale Offers are made exceeds the Maximum Offer Amount and the Purchaser elects to purchase Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Purchase Offer, the Purchaser will purchase the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered by the Lenders below the Clearing Price first, and then to the extent of the remaining amounts under the Maximum Offer Amount, the Purchaser will purchase the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered by the Lenders at the Clearing Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts of such tendered Loans and Commitments.  Agent (in consultation with the Purchaser) will determine the final pro ration factor as soon as practicable after the Expiration Time and will announce such pro ration factor to the Lenders that have submitted a Sale Offer (collectively, the “Participating Lenders”) via Syndtrak or other electronic workplace or internet site (e.g., Intralinks). Such determination of the final pro ration factor will be final and binding on the Participating Lenders.
 
Maximum Offer Amount
The Maximum Offer Amount is $[______]. The Purchaser may elect to
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
 
increase the Maximum Offer Amount at any time, and from time to time, prior to the fifth Business Day after Agent has initially determined the Clearing Price (as defined below).  If the Purchaser so elects, Agent, in consultation with the Purchaser, shall redetermine the Clearing Price based on such increased Maximum Offer Amount.
 
Purchase Price
The Purchaser is conducting the Purchase Offer through a procedure commonly called a “Modified Dutch Auction”. This procedure allows the tendering Lender to select the price, within an applicable price range specified by the Purchaser, at which such Lender is willing to sell the principal amount of its Loans and Commitments.
 
The Purchaser is offering to purchase Loans and Commitments for cash at a price not greater than $[______] nor less than $[_____] per $1,000 principal face amount. The Agent in consultation with the Purchaser will select the lowest purchase price, which is referred to herein as the “Clearing Price”, that will allow the Purchaser to purchase the Maximum Offer Amount (or such lesser amount of Loans and Commitments for which the Purchaser received the aggregate Sale Offers). To the extent the Purchase Offer is not cancelled, withdrawn or terminated by the Purchaser, first, the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments for which Sale Offers are validly received at a price lower than the Clearing Price will be purchased at the purchase price specified by such participating Lender, and such tendered principal amount will not be subject to pro ration, and thereafter, the principal amount of all Loans and Commitments tendered at the Clearing Price will be acquired at such Clearing Price, subject to pro ration procedures set forth above. The Purchaser will not purchase any principal amount of Loans and Commitments tendered at a price above the Clearing Price.
 
In the event no Lenders have validly tendered any Loans and Commitments following the Purchase Offer or as otherwise agreed to by Agent, the Purchaser reserves the right at any time prior to the Expiration Time (as may be extended by the Purchaser by three business days) to amend the Purchase Offer to increase the Maximum Offer Amount or the Maximum Purchase Price for all Lenders.
 
Setting the Purchase
Price
In order to select the purchase price at which a Lender wishes to sell its Loans and Commitments, each Lender must indicate in its (i) offer in the form of Annex A (“Sale Offer”) and (ii) Section 7 of the Assignment Agreement (form of such agreement attached hereto as Annex B), in each case the price within the specified range (in multiples of $5 per $1,000 principal amount) at which such Lender wishes to offer the principal face amount of its Loans and Commitments for sale to the Purchaser (the “Offer Price”) and the principal amount offered at face value (the “Offered Amount”). A Lender may not submit more than one Sale Offer, and may not specify more than three Offer Prices (and corresponding Offered Amount) in such Sale Offer; provided, however, if a Lender specifies more than one Offer Price and Offered Amount, the sum shall not exceed the principal face amount of Loans and Commitments held by it. If more than one Offer Price (and corresponding Offered Amount) is
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
specified, each Offer Price (and corresponding Offered Amount) may be accepted by the Purchaser to the extent such Offer Price is at or below the Clearing Price (subject to the pro ration procedures set forth above).
 
In the event any changes are required to the executed Assignment and Assumption Agreement, Agent shall notify the applicable Participating Lender of such required changes and shall request an acknowledgment by such Participating Lender, which acknowledgement shall be provided by such Participating Lender no later than two business days of receipt thereof.
 
Each Sale Offer shall be in an aggregate amount of not less than $500,000, or such lesser amount (x) as may be agreed to by the Purchaser and Agent, (y) as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the Loans and Commitments of the Participating Lender or (z) as shall constitute the aggregate pro rata share of the Loans and Commitments of the Participating Lender in the event of pro ration as contemplated herein (the “Minimum Assignment Amount”).
Expiration Time
[TIME], New York City time on [DATE]
 
Effective Date
The effective date for the Purchase Offer shall be the date recorded by Agent in the Register (as defined in the Credit Agreement) in accordance with the Credit Agreement (the “Unrestricted Subsidiary Assignment Effective Date”).
 
Conditions to the
Purchase Offer;
Termination of Offer by
Purchaser
Delivery, to Agent prior to the Expiration Time, of a validly executed (i) Assignment and Assumption Agreement and (ii) Sale Offer; provided that the Purchaser shall not be required to accept for payment, purchase or pay for any principal amount of Loans and Commitments that are the subject of validly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreements and Sale Offers, and may terminate any or all of the Purchase Offer and treat all executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreements as null and void and without any legal effect.
 
Withdrawal Rights
The Lenders shall have no withdrawal rights pursuant to the Offer Documents.
 
Acceptance and Payment of Loans and Commitments
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer Documents, the Purchaser will purchase, by accepting for payment, an aggregate principal amount of Loans and Commitments up to the Maximum Offer Amount that are the subject of validly executed and delivered (x) Assignment and Assumption Agreements and (y) Sale Offers.  Agent will disseminate to the Participating Lenders announcements in connection with the Purchaser’s acceptance for payment of Loans and Commitments, notice of the Clearing Price and any other relevant notices or information through Syndtrak or other electronic workplace or internet site (e.g., Intralinks).  The Purchaser will make payment of the purchase price for Loans and Commitments accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer Documents by transmitting to the Agent for distribution to the Participating Lenders such payments in same-day funds on the Unrestricted
