Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 31, 2005, we entered into a First Supplemental Indenture (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), by and among ourselves, certain of our subsidiaries as guarantors (the “Guaranteeing Subsidiaries”), The Bank of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and ING Bank N.V., London Branch, as note security agent (the “Note Security Agent”), which amends and supplements the Indenture, dated July 25, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among us, the guarantors named therein, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent, under which we issued on July 25, 2005 €325 million 8% Senior Secured Notes due July 25, 2012 (the “Notes”). Prior to the execution and delivery of the First Supplemental Indenture by the parties thereto, the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries were Carey Agri International-Poland Sp. z o.o., Onufry S.A., Multi-Ex S.A., Astor Sp. z o.o., Polskie Hurtownie Alkoholi Sp. z o.o., MTC Sp. z o.o., Przedsiebiorstwo Dystrybucji Alkoholi Agis S.A., Dako-Galant Przedsiebiorstwo Handlowo Produkcyjne Sp. z o.o., Damianex S.A., PWW Sp. z o.o. and Miro Sp. z o.o. Pursuant to Section 4.22(a) of the Indenture, we were required to cause Botapol Holding B.V. (“Botapol Holding”) and Bols Sp. z o.o. (“Bols”) to become Guaranteeing Subsidiaries within 10 business days of their acquisition by us. We acquired Botapol Holding and Bols on August 17, 2005, as previously reported in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 23, 2005. By execution and delivery of the First Supplemental Indenture, Botapol Holding and Bols became additional Guaranteeing Subsidiaries as required by such Section 4.22(a) of the Indenture. The Indenture, as modified and supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, is hereinafter referred to herein as the “Indenture”.

 

Pursuant to the First Supplemental Indenture, Botapol Holding and Bols guarantee the payment and performance of our obligations under the Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. As provided for in Section 3 of the First Supplemental Indenture, the guarantee of Botapol Holding will not be assumed to the extent that it would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of the Dutch Civil Code.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, we and our subsidiaries that own the capital stock of Botapol Holding and Bols will pledge such capital stock to the Note Security Agent as security for the guarantees issued by such subsidiaries within 20 business days of the acquisition of Botapol Holding. On August 18, 2005, the capital stock of the Guaranteeing Subsidiaries that were Guaranteeing Subsidiaries prior to the execution and delivery of the First Supplemental Indenture was pledged to the Note Security Agent as security for the guarantees issued by the subsidiaries which own the capital stock of such Guaranteeing Subsidiaries.

 

The foregoing description does not purport to be a complete description of the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture and is qualified in its entirety by the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture, which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated by reference herein.

WHEREAS, the Bols Acqusition was completed on August 17, 2005;

 

WHEREAS, the Additional Guarantors have agreed to fully and unconditionally guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Indenture, which guarantee is provided in this First Supplemental Indenture, as permitted pursuant to Section 9.1(a) of the Indenture;

 

WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 9.1(a) of the Indenture, the Company, the Initial Guarantors, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent may amend or supplement the Indenture without the consent of any Holder;

 

WHEREAS, the Company, the Initial Guarantors, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent desire to amend and supplement the Indenture in accordance with Section 9.1(a) of the Indenture; and

 

WHEREAS, the execution and delivery of this First Supplemental Indenture has been duly authorized by the parties hereto, and all other acts necessary to make this First Supplemental Indenture a valid and binding supplement to the Indenture effectively amending the Indenture as set forth herein have been duly taken.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company, the Initial Guarantors, the Additional Guarantors, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent mutually covenant and agree as follows:

 

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Indenture.


Section 2. Amendment to the Indenture. The first paragraph of Section 10.1 of the Indenture is amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

“Each of the Guarantors hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably Guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, on a senior basis to each Holder of a Note authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee and the Note Security Agent and each of their successors and assigns the full and prompt performance of all of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes including the payment of principal of, and premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent hereunder and under the Notes. The obligations of the Company under this Indenture and Notes shall be referred to herein as the “Obligations”.”

 

Section 3. Additional Guarantees. Each of the Additional Guarantors hereby fully, unconditionally and irrevocably Guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, on a senior basis to each Holder of a Note authenticated by the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent and to the Trustee and the Note Security Agent and each of their successors and assigns the full and prompt performance of all of the Company’s obligations under this Indenture and the Notes including the payment of principal of, and premium, if any, interest and Additional Amounts, if any, on the Notes and all other obligations of the Company to the Holders, the Trustee and the Note Security Agent hereunder and under the Notes. Each Additional Guarantor further agrees and acknowledges that it shall be bound to the terms and conditions of Article X of the Indenture to the same extent as it would be so bound were it to have been an Initial Guarantor on the Issue Date; provided, however, that the Guarantee, indemnity and other obligations of Botapol expressed to be assumed in this First Supplemental Indenture or elsewhere in the Indenture shall be deemed not to be assumed by Botapol to the extent that the same would constitute unlawful financial assistance within the meaning of the Dutch Civil Code.

 

Section 4. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees, Incorporators or Shareholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or shareholder of the Company or any Initial Guarantor or Additional Guarantor, as such, shall have any liability for any obligations of the Company or any Guarantor under the Notes, this First Supplemental Indenture, the Indenture or the Guarantees or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation; and that any and all such personal liability has been waived upon the execution of the Indenture or is hereby expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as a consideration for, the execution of this First Supplemental Indenture and the issuance of the Additional Guarantees.

 

Section 5. Ratification and Effect. Except as hereby expressly amended and supplemented, the Indenture is in all respects ratified and confirmed and all the terms, provisions and conditions thereof shall be and remain in full force and effect. Upon and after the execution of this First Supplemental Indenture, each reference in the Indenture to “this Indenture”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Indenture shall mean and be a reference to the Indenture as modified hereby.

Section 6. Governing Law. This First Supplemental Indenture shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

 

Section 7. Submission to Jurisdiction; Appointment of Agent for Service. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Company and the Additional Guarantors irrevocably submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of and venue in any federal or state court in the Borough of Manhattan in the City of New York, County and State of New York, United States of America, in any suit or proceeding based on or arising out of or under or in connection with this First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes or the Additional Guarantees, and irrevocably agrees that all claims in respect of such suit or proceeding may be determined in any such court. Each of the Company and the Additional Guarantors, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrevocably and fully waives the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such suit or proceeding and hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Corporation Service Company (the “Authorized Agent”), as its authorized agent upon whom process may be served in any such suit or proceeding. The Company and the Additional Guarantors hereby irrevocably authorize and direct their Authorized Agent to accept such service. The Company and the Additional Guarantors further agree that service of process upon their Authorized Agent and written notice of such service to the Company and the Additional Guarantors, as the case may be, as set forth above, shall be deemed in every respect effective service of process upon the Company or the Additional Guarantors, as the case may be, in any such suit or proceeding. Nothing herein shall affect the right of any person to serve process in any other manner permitted by law. The Company and the Additional Guarantors agree that a final action in any such suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other lawful manner.

 

The Company and the Additional Guarantors hereby irrevocably waive, to the extent permitted by law, any immunity to jurisdiction to which it may otherwise be entitled (including, without limitation, immunity to pre-judgment attachment, post-judgment attachment and execution) in any legal suit, action or proceeding against it arising out of or based on this Indenture, the Notes or the transactions contemplated hereby.

 

The provisions of this Section 7 are intended to be effective upon the execution of this First Supplemental Indenture without any further action by the Company, the Additional Guarantors or the Trustee and the introduction of a true copy of this First Supplemental Indenture into evidence shall be conclusive and final evidence as to such matters.

 

Section 8. Counterpart Originals. All parties hereto may sign any number of copies of this Indenture. Each signed copy or counterpart shall be an original, but all of them together shall represent one and the same agreement.

 

Section 9. Headings, etc. The headings of the Sections of this First Supplemental Indenture have been inserted for convenience of reference only, are not to be considered a part of this First Supplemental Indenture and shall in no way modify or restrict any of the terms or provisions hereof.

 

Section 10. Trustee. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this First Supplemental Indenture. The recitals and statements herein are deemed to be those of the Company and the Guarantors and not of the Trustee.
