CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT
     THIS CREDIT AND SECURITY AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) dated as of November 23, 2010 is entered into by and among TEMPUS ACQUISITION, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Borrower”), the financial institutions party hereto as Lenders (the “Lenders”) and Guggenheim Corporate Funding, LLC, as administrative agent (the “Agent”).
     WHEREAS, the Borrower intends to purchase certain of the assets of Tempus Resorts International, Ltd. and certain of its affiliates (the “Sellers”) pursuant to that certain Agreement for Purchase and Sale of Assets, dated as of November 9, 2010 between the Borrower and the Sellers (together with all addendums, exhibits and schedules thereto, as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or modified from time to time, or as the same may be replaced with such other definitive documentation reflecting the acquisition of the Sellers’ assets by the Borrower, which amendment or replacement documentation has been approved by the Agent, the “Purchase Agreement”; and the acquisition pursuant thereto, the “Acquisition”);
     WHEREAS, the Sellers currently plan to commence a case (collectively, the “Bankruptcy Case”) under Chapter 11 of Title 11, United States Code (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Middle District of Florida, Orlando Division (together with any other court having jurisdiction over the Bankruptcy Case or any proceedings therein from time to time, the “Bankruptcy Court”);
     WHEREAS, the Sellers have requested that the Borrower provide the Sellers debtor-in-possession financing pursuant to the Financing Orders (as approved by the Agent, the “DIP Financing”) and the Borrower is prepared to do so;
     WHEREAS, Borrower has requested that Lenders make available to Borrower a revolving loan facility (the “Facility”) in a maximum principal amount of Eight Million Dollars ($8,000,000) (the “Facility Cap”), the proceeds of which shall be used by Borrower exclusively for the following purposes: (i) to provide Borrower with funds to lend to the Sellers pursuant to the DIP Financing for general working capital purposes and other lawful purposes as permitted under the agreements governing the DIP Financing and in accordance with the Budget (the “DIP Uses”) and (ii) to provide $1,500,000 for the “Deposit,” as defined and provided in the Purchase Agreement when such Deposit is required to be made under the Purchase Agreement (the “Deposit Use”); and
     WHEREAS, the Lenders are willing to make the Facility available to Borrower upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which hereby are acknowledged, Borrower and Lenders hereby agree as follows:
I. DEFINITIONS
     For purposes of this Agreement, in addition to the definitions above and elsewhere in this Agreement, the terms listed in Appendix A hereto shall have the meanings given such terms in

 


 

Appendix A, which is incorporated herein and made a part hereof. All capitalized terms used which are not specifically defined (including, without limitation, Goods, Fixtures, General Intangibles, Chattel Paper, Investment Property, Documents, Commercial Tort Claims, Instruments, Deposit Accounts, Letter-of-Credit Rights, Proceeds and Supporting Obligations) shall have meanings provided in Article 9 of the UCC in effect on the date hereof (or as amended and in effect from time to time as approved by Lenders) to the extent the same are used or defined therein. Unless otherwise specified herein or in Appendix A, any agreement or contract referred to herein or in Appendix A shall mean such agreement as modified, amended or supplemented from time to time. Unless otherwise specified, as used in the Loan Documents or in any certificate, report, instrument or other document made or delivered pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, all accounting terms not defined in Appendix A or elsewhere in this Agreement shall have the meanings given to such terms in and shall be interpreted in accordance with GAAP.

The Facility is a revolving credit facility, provided, however, that the $1,500,000 advanced for the Deposit Use may not be reborrowed or relent if repaid prior to the Maturity Date. Any determination as to whether there is availability for Advances shall be made by Lenders in their sole discretion and is final and binding upon Borrower.

The acceptance of such initial Advance shall be deemed a confirmation by Borrower that each of its representations and warranties made in or pursuant to this Agreement are accurate, before and after giving effect to such Advance, and no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would exist after giving effect to the Advance under the Facility on such date.
          (b) With respect to Advances other than the initial Advance described in Section 2.4(a) above, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower may give the Agent irrevocable written notice requesting an Advance under the Facility by delivering to the Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. (New York City time) at least five Business Days (or such shorter period as the Agent may agree to in its discretion) prior to the proposed Business Day on which such requested Advance is to be made (the “Borrowing Date”) specifying the amount of the requested Advance.

     2.6 Grant of Security Interest; Collateral
          (a) To secure the payment and performance of the Obligations, Borrower hereby grants to Lenders a continuing security interest in and Lien upon, and pledges to Lenders all of its rights, title and interests in and to the Borrower’s Assets, any and all additions and accessions thereto, and any and all replacements, products and proceeds (including insurance proceeds) thereof (the “Collateral”).
