Item 1.01.
Entry into a Material Agreement.
On February 8, 2022 (the “Effective Date”), VICI Properties L.P. (the “Borrower”), a wholly owned subsidiary of VICI Properties Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a new Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Agreement”), comprised of a $2.5 billion senior unsecured revolving credit facility scheduled to mature on March 31, 2026 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a $1.0 billion senior unsecured delayed draw term loan facility scheduled to mature on March 31, 2025 (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). As of the Effective Date, no borrowings were outstanding on either the Delayed Draw Term Loan or the Revolving Credit Facility. The Delayed Draw Term Loan is available to be drawn up to 12 months following the Effective Date. The Company expects to use the proceeds from the Credit Facilities for general corporate purposes, including the financing of working capital needs, repayment of permitted indebtedness, acquisitions and other investments permitted by the Credit Agreement.
The Revolving Credit Facility includes two six-month maturity extension options and the Delayed Draw Term Loan includes two twelve-month extension options, in each case, the exercise of which is subject to customary conditions and the payment of an extension fee of 0.0625% on the extended commitments, in the case of each six-month extension of the Revolving Credit Facility, and 0.125% on the extended term loans, in the case of each twelve-month extension of the Delayed Draw Term Loan. The Credit Facilities include the option to increase the revolving loan commitments by up to $1.0 billion (for a total of $3.5 billion) and increase the delayed draw term loan commitments or add one or more new tranches of term loans by up to $1.0 billion (for a total of $2.0 billion) in the aggregate, in each case, to the extent that any one or more lenders (from the syndicate or otherwise) agree to provide such additional credit extensions.
Borrowings under the Credit Facilities will bear interest, at the Borrower’s option, (i) with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, at a rate based on SOFR (including a credit spread adjustment) plus a margin ranging from 0.775% to 1.325% or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.325%, in each case, with the actual margin determined according to the Company’s credit ratings, and (ii) with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Loan, at a rate based on SOFR (including a credit spread adjustment) plus a margin ranging from 0.85% to 1.60% or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.00% to 0.60%, in each case, with the actual margin determined according to the Company’s credit ratings. The base rate is the highest of (i) the prime rate of interest last quoted by the Wall Street Journal in the U.S. then in effect, (ii) the NYFRB rate from time to time plus 0.5% and (iii) the SOFR rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.0%, subject to a floor of 1.0%. In addition, the Credit Facilities require the payment of a facility fee ranging from 0.15% to 0.375% (depending on the Borrower’s credit ratings) of total commitments. The Credit Facilities may be voluntarily prepaid in full or in part at any time, subject to customary breakage costs incurred in connection with any prepayment of a SOFR loan, if applicable.
If commitments and loans pursuant to each bridge facility contemplated by (i) that certain Commitment Letter dated August 4, 2021, which was executed in connection with the Company’s pending acquisition of MGM Growth Properties, LLC (the “MGP Transactions Bridge Facility”) and/or (ii) that certain Commitment Letter, dated as of March 2, 2021, which was executed in connection with the Company’s pending acquisition of the Venetian Resort Las Vegas and Venetian Expo (the “Venetian Transactions Bridge Facility” and together with the MGP Transactions Bridge Facility, the “Bridge Facilities”), are funded and remain outstanding for 90 days, then the Credit Facilities are required to be secured on a second priority basis with the same collateral securing such Bridge Facilities for so long such Bridge Facility remains outstanding.
The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and affirmative, negative and financial covenants. Such covenants include restrictions on mergers, affiliate transactions, and asset sales as well as the following financial maintenance covenants:
percentage of net total indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 60% as of the last day of any fiscal quarter (or 65% for up to four consecutive fiscal quarters following any material acquisition);
ratio of total EBITDA to total fixed charges of not less than 1.50 to 1.00;
percentage of net secured indebtedness to total asset value of not more than 30%, but increasing to 40% following the repayment in full or termination of the commitments in respect of the Bridge Facilities;
following the repayment in full or termination of the commitments in respect of the Bridge Facilities, percentage of net unsecured indebtedness to the asset value of unencumbered properties of not more than 60% (or 65% for up to four consecutive fiscal quarters following any material acquisition); and
following the repayment in full or termination of the commitments in respect of the Bridge Facilities, ratio of unencumbered net operating income to unsecured interest expense of not less than 1.75 to 1.00.



The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable. The Credit Agreement is consistent with certain tax-related requirements related to security for the Company’s debt.
The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1.02.
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On the Effective Date, the existing credit agreement by and among VICI Properties 1 LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as borrower, Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as administrative agent, and the other loan parties and lenders party thereto entered into in December 2017 (as amended and restated in May 2019 and amended in January 2020, and as further as amended, amended and restated and otherwise modified, the “Existing Credit Agreement”) comprised of a $2.2 billion Term Loan B Facility, which was repaid in full on September 15, 2021, and a $1.0 billion undrawn Secured Revolving Credit Facility (the “Existing Credit Facilities”) was terminated. All liens securing the Existing Credit Facilities and subsidiary guarantees of the Existing Credit Facilities were automatically released upon the termination of the Existing Credit Agreement.
Item 2.03.
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The disclosure required by this Item 2.03 is included in Item 1.01 and incorporated herein by reference.

1.9Pro Forma Calculations. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Financial Ratios shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.9; provided, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b) or (c) of this Section 1.9, when calculating the Financial Ratios, as applicable, for purposes of determining actual compliance (and not pro forma compliance or compliance on a pro forma basis) with any covenant pursuant to Section 7.1 (Financial Condition Covenants), the events described in this Section 1.9 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower shall not be given pro forma effect.
37


(b)    For purposes of calculating the Financial Ratios, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith) that have been made (i) during the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and (ii) subsequent to such period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and in connection with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Total EBITDA, Unencumbered Asset Value, Total Asset Value or Unencumbered NOI and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower (whether or not occurring concurrently with the event for which the calculation is made) (it being understood that no such increase shall be reflected with respect to Unencumbered Asset Value, Total Asset Value or Unencumbered NOI as a result of this Section 1.9(b) to the extent that such defined terms (or the component financial definitions used therein) separately provide a mechanism for a pro forma increase (or annualization) as a result of such Specified Transaction). If since the beginning of any applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower any Person that subsequently became a Subsidiary of the Borrower or was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period of four consecutive fiscal quarters shall have made any Specified Transaction that would have required adjustment pursuant to this Section 1.9, then the Financial Ratios shall be calculated to give pro forma effect thereto in accordance with this Section 1.9.
(c)    In the event that the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by redemption, repayment, prepayment, retirement, exchange or extinguishment or Discharge) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of any of the Financial Ratios (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility), (i) during the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and/or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the Financial Ratios shall be calculated giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or repayment or Discharge of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on (A) the last day of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower in the case of the Total Leverage Ratio, the Secured Leverage Ratio and the Unsecured Leverage Ratio and (B) the first day of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower in the case of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio and the Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of the event for which the calculation of the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or the Unsecured Interest Coverage Ratio, as applicable, is made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any hedging obligations applicable to such Indebtedness); provided, that in the case of repayment of any Indebtedness, to the extent actual interest related thereto was included during all or any portion of the applicable period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower, the actual interest may be used for the applicable portion of such period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower and to give pro forma effect to such repayment. Interest in respect of a Finance Lease shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such related Finance Lease in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a risk free or risk adjusted rate, or other rate, shall be determined to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Borrower may designate.
(d)    When used in reference to the calculation of Financial Ratios for purposes of determining actual compliance with Section 7.1 (and not pro forma compliance or compliance on a pro forma basis), references to the date of determination shall mean the last day of the relevant fiscal quarter then being tested. When used in reference to the calculation of Financial Ratios for purposes of determining pro forma compliance or compliance on a pro forma basis (other than for purposes of actual compliance with Section 7.1), references to the date of determination shall mean the calculation of Financial Ratios as of the last day of the most recent period of four consecutive fiscal quarters of the Borrower for which financial statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.1 on a pro forma basis. For purposes of determining pro forma compliance or compliance on a pro forma basis with covenants set forth in Section 7.1 prior to the date on which such covenants would otherwise apply, the covenants set forth in Section 7.1 shall be deemed to be applicable for purposes of such test.

Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Delayed Draw Term Lender severally agrees to make a term loan or term loans in Dollars (each, a “Delayed Draw Term Loan”, and collectively, the “Delayed Draw Term Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time after the Closing Date until, but not including, the Delayed Draw Term Commitment Termination Date; provided, that (i) there shall not be more than three drawings of the Delayed Draw Term Loans, (ii) each drawing of Delayed Draw Term Loans shall not exceed, for any Delayed Draw Term Lender, the Available Delayed Draw Term Commitment of such Lender at such time and (iii) the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall not exceed, in the aggregate, the Total Delayed Draw Term Commitment.

Each Delayed Draw Term Loan shall be made by the Delayed Draw Term Lenders ratably in accordance with their applicable Delayed Draw Term Commitments; provided, that the failure of any Delayed Draw Term Lender to make its Delayed Draw Term Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Delayed Draw Term Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Delayed Draw Term Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Delayed Draw Term Lender to make any Delayed Draw Term Loan required to be made by such other Delayed Draw Term Lender). Each drawing of Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $50,000,000.

Each Delayed Draw Term Lender may at its option make any Term Benchmark Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Delayed Draw Term Lender to make such Delayed Draw Term Loan; provided, that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Delayed Draw Term Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of Delayed Draw Term Loans of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time, subject to Section 2.10. For purposes of the foregoing, Term Benchmark Tranches having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate borrowings.
2.3Termination or Reduction of Delayed Draw Term Commitments. The Borrower shall have the right to terminate the unused Delayed Draw Term Commitments or, from time to time, to reduce the amount of the unused Delayed Draw Term Commitments. Any such reduction shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, and shall reduce permanently the Available Delayed Draw Term Commitment then in effect.

39


satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Delayed Draw Term Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Delayed Draw Term Commitments shall be made ratably among the Delayed Draw Term Lenders in accordance with their respective Delayed Draw Term Commitments.

During the Revolving Commitment Period the Borrower may use the Revolving Commitments by borrowing, prepaying the Revolving Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The Revolving Loans may from time to time be Term Benchmark Loans, RFR Loans, Daily SOFR Loans or ABR Loans, as determined by the Borrower and notified to the Administrative Agent in accordance with Sections 2.5 and 2.10.
(b)Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date. The Borrower shall repay all outstanding Revolving Loans on the Revolving Maturity Date.

Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender thereof.

2.14Inability to Determine Interest Rate. (a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.14, if:
(i)the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate or Daily Effective SOFR; or
(ii)the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.2 or 2.5, as applicable, (1) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, (y) a Daily SOFR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is also the subject to Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above but the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not or (z) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR and Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR are each also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, (2) any Borrowing
43


Request that requests an RFR Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for (x) a Daily SOFR Borrowing if the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not also the subject to Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above and (y) otherwise an ABR Borrowing and (3) any Borrowing Request that requests a Daily SOFR Loan shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request for an ABR Borrowing; provided, that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan, RFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, RFR Loan or Daily SOFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.10 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Sections 2.2 or 2.5, as applicable, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, (y) a Daily SOFR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is also the subject to Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above but the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not, or (z) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR and Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR are each also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute (y) a Daily SOFR Borrowing if the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day or (z) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR also is the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above and (3) any Daily SOFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute an ABR Loan.
(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Specified Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.14), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders of each affected Class.
(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(d)The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.
(e)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
44


(f)Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, (B) if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Daily SOFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (C) otherwise, an ABR Borrowing. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, (y) if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Daily SOFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (z) otherwise, an ABR Loan, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (y) a Daily SOFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Floating Overnight Daily SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (z) otherwise, an ABR Loan.
2.15Pro Rata Treatment; Payments; Sharing of Setoffs.
(a)Each borrowing by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Commitments of the Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective applicable Delayed Draw Term Percentages or Revolving Percentages of the applicable Lenders.
(b)Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Delayed Draw Term Loans then held by the Delayed Draw Term Lenders. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Delayed Draw Term Loans may not be reborrowed. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Delayed Draw Term Loans then held by the Delayed Draw Term Lenders. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Delayed Draw Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
(c)Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders.
(d)All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff or counterclaim. All payments shall be made prior to 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Funding Office, in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may require that any payments due under this Agreement be made in the United States. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Term Benchmark Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Term Benchmark Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(e)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such
45


amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph (e) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans, on demand, from the Borrower.
(f)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.
(g)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.5, Section 2.15(d), Section 2.15(e), Section 3.4(a) or Section 9.7, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under such Sections; in the case of each of (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
2.16Requirements of Law.
(a)If any Change in Law:
(i)shall subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
(ii)shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, insurance charge, liquidity, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender or such Issuing Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Term Benchmark; or
(iii)shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing Lender or the applicable interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes);
and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, by an amount that such Lender or such Issuing Lender deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Term Benchmark Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit, or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender or such Issuing Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender or any Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this paragraph, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.
(b)If any Lender or any Issuing Lender shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital, reserve or liquidity requirements or ratios shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letters of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s or such holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender or such Issuing Lender to the
46


Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Lender or such holding company for such reduction.
(c)A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.16 submitted by any Lender or any Issuing Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.16 for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such six-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.
(d)For purposes of this Section 2.16, (i) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or by United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, and (ii) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, shall be deemed to have been introduced and adopted after the date of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be entitled to seek compensation for costs imposed pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or Basel III if it shall not be the general policy of such Lender at such time to seek compensation from other investment grade borrowers with the same or similar ratings under yield protection provisions in credit agreements with such borrowers that provide for such compensation and the applicable Lender is in fact generally seeking such compensation from such borrowers (and, upon any request by such Lender for payment, certifies to the Borrower to the effect of the foregoing).
2.17Taxes.
(a)Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b)Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.
(c)Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(d)Indemnification by the Borrower. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any 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. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e)Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the
47


extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6 relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).
(f)Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
(ii)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,
(A)any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup withholding tax;
(B)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
(1)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(2)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c) (3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) an executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or
(4)to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, an executed copy of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if the Foreign Lender is a
48


partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D)if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g)Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.17 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 such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph (g) 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.
(h)Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
(i)Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.
2.18Indemnity. (a) With respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss, cost or expense (including any foreign exchange losses, but not loss of profit) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in
49


making any prepayment of or conversion from Term Benchmark Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (d) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 2.20. In the case of a Term Benchmark Loan, such indemnification shall be deemed to include the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or continued, at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate that would have been applicable for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurodollar market.
(b)    With respect to RFR Loans, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss, cost or expense (including any foreign exchange losses, but not loss of profit) that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a borrowing of RFR Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment of RFR Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (c) the making of a prepayment of RFR Loans on a day that is not the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto or (d) the assignment of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto pursuant to a request by the Borrower under Section 2.20. In the case of a RFR Loan, such indemnification shall be deemed to include the amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, at the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR that would have been applicable for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow to the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) that would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the relevant interbank market.
(c)    A certificate as to any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.18 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder. This Section 2.18 shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses, costs or expenses arising from any non-Tax claims.
2.19Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.16 or 2.17 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided, that such designation (i) in the sole judgment of such Lender would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17 and (ii) is made on terms that, in the sole judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to the Lender; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.19 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17(a). The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket documented costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.
2.20Replacement of Lenders. The Borrower shall be permitted to replace, at its sole expense and effort, and upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, any Lender that (a) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17 or (b) becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, with a replacement financial institution; provided, that (i) such replacement does not conflict with any Requirement of Law, (ii) if applicable, prior to any such replacement, such Lender shall have taken no action under Section 2.19 so as to eliminate the continued need for payment of amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17, (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such amounts, (iv) the replacement financial institution shall purchase, at par, all Loans and other amounts owing to such replaced Lender on or prior to the date of replacement, (v) the Borrower shall be liable to such replaced Lender under Section 2.18 if any Term Benchmark Loan owing to such replaced Lender shall be purchased other than on the last day of the Interest Period relating thereto, (vi) the replacement financial institution, if not already a Lender, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (vii) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.6 (provided, that the Borrower shall be obligated to pay the registration and processing fee referred to therein), (viii) until such time as such replacement shall be consummated, the Borrower shall pay all additional
50


amounts (if any) required pursuant to Section 2.16 or 2.17, as the case may be, and (ix) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such replacement if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such replacement cease to apply. Each party hereto agrees that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee, and that the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective.
2.21Incremental Commitments.
(a)Incremental Facilities. On one or more occasions at any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request (A) an increase to the existing Revolving Commitments (any such increase, the “New Revolving Commitments”) and/or (B) an increase to the existing Delayed Draw Term Facility and/or the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments in Dollars (the “New Term Commitments”, together with the New Revolving Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), by up to an aggregate amount (i) with respect to the Revolving Facility, such that after giving effect thereto the total aggregate amount of the Revolving Facility shall be no greater than $3,500,000,000 and (ii) with respect to the Delayed Draw Term Facility or any other New Term Commitments, such that after giving effect thereto the total aggregate amount of the Delayed Draw Term Facility and any New Term Commitments and the loans in respect thereof shall be no greater than $2,000,000,000. Each such notice shall specify the date (each, an “Increased Amount Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that such Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent. With respect to any Incremental Commitments, (x) any Incremental Commitments on any Increased Amount Date shall be in the minimum aggregate amount of $25,000,000, (y) any Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide an Incremental Commitment and (z) any Lender or other Person that is an Eligible Assignee (each, a “New Revolving Lender” or “New Term Lender,” as applicable) to whom any portion of such Incremental Commitment shall be allocated shall be subject to the approval of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and, in the case of a New Revolving Commitment, the Issuing Lenders (each of which approvals shall not be unreasonably withheld), unless such New Revolving Lender is an existing Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) with a Revolving Commitment at such time or such New Term Lender is an existing Lender or an Affiliate of an existing Lender.
(b)The terms and provisions of any New Revolving Commitments shall be identical to the existing Revolving Commitments; provided, that the applicable commitment fee, upfront and other fees with respect to any New Revolving Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable New Revolving Lenders and the applicable arrangement fees with respect to any New Revolving Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable arrangers for such New Revolving Commitments. The terms and provisions of any New Term Commitments and any New Term Loans shall (a) share ratably in any prepayments of the existing Delayed Draw Term Facility, unless the Borrower and the New Term Lenders in respect of such New Term Commitments elect lesser payments and (b) other than pricing or maturity date, shall have the same terms as the Delayed Draw Term Facility; provided, that applicable interest rate margins, arrangement fees, upfront or other fees, original issue discount and amortization (subject to the remaining terms of this proviso) with respect to any New Term Commitments shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable New Term Lenders; provided, further, that New Term Commitments may contain (x) additional or more restrictive covenants that are applicable only to periods after the latest Maturity Date of any Term Loans outstanding or Revolving Commitments in effect immediately prior to giving effect to such New Term Commitments and (y) other terms that are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.
(c)The effectiveness of any Incremental Commitments and the availability of any borrowings under any such Incremental Commitments shall be subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent: (x) after giving pro forma effect to such Incremental Commitments and borrowings and the use of proceeds thereof, no Default or Event of Default shall exist; (y) the representations and warranties made or deemed made by the Borrower in any Loan Document shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be true and correct in all respects) on the effective date of such Incremental Commitments except to the extent that such representations and warranties expressly relate solely to an earlier date (in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be true and correct in all respects)); and (z) the Administrative Agent shall have received each of the following, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) if not previously delivered to the Administrative Agent, copies certified by the Secretary or Assistant Secretary of all corporate or other necessary action taken by the Borrower to authorize such Incremental Commitments; (ii) if requested by the Administrative Agent, a customary
51


opinion of counsel to the Borrower (which may be in substantially the same form as delivered on the Closing Date), and addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (iii) if requested by any Lender, new Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any new Lender, and replacement Notes executed by the Borrower, payable to any existing Lenders; provided, that, such Lender shall promptly return any existing Notes held by such Lender to the Borrower (or, if lost, destroyed or mutilated, if requested by the Borrower, a lost note affidavit in customary form and including a customary indemnity).
(d)On any Increased Amount Date on which New Revolving Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (a) each of the Revolving Lenders shall assign to each of the New Revolving Lenders, and each of the New Revolving Lenders shall purchase from each of the Revolving Lenders, at the principal amount thereof (together with accrued interest), such interests in the Revolving Loans outstanding on such Increased Amount Date as shall be necessary in order that, after giving effect to all such assignments and purchases, such Revolving Loans will be held by existing Revolving Lenders and New Revolving Lenders ratably in accordance with their Revolving Commitments after giving effect to the addition of such New Revolving Commitments to the Revolving Commitments, (b) each New Revolving Commitment shall be deemed for all purposes a Revolving Commitment and each Loan made thereunder shall be deemed, for all purposes, a Revolving Loan and (c) each New Revolving Lender shall become a Lender with respect to its New Revolving Commitment and all matters relating thereto.
(e)On any Increased Amount Date on which any New Term Commitments are effected, subject to the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, (i) each New Term Lender shall make a Loan to the Borrower (a “New Term Loan”) in an amount equal to its New Term Commitment, and (ii) each New Term Lender shall become a Lender hereunder with respect to the New Term Commitment and the New Term Loans made pursuant thereto.
(f)The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders promptly upon receipt of the Borrower’s notice of each Increased Amount Date and in respect thereof (y) the New Revolving Commitments and the New Revolving Lenders or the New Term Commitments and the New Term Lenders, as applicable, and (z) in the case of each notice to any Revolving Lender, the respective interests in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loans, in each case subject to the assignments contemplated by this paragraph.
(g)The fees payable by the Borrower upon any such Incremental Commitments shall be agreed upon by the Borrower and the applicable New Revolving Lenders and/or New Term Lenders at the time of such increase.
(h)The Incremental Commitments shall be evidenced pursuant to one or more Additional Credit Extension Amendments executed and delivered by the Borrower, the New Revolving Lenders or New Term Lenders, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, and each of which shall be recorded in the Register. Each Additional Credit Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.21, subject to the approval of the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).
2.22Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a)fees shall cease to accrue on the unused portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.6 and the Available Delayed Draw Term Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.6;
(b)the Commitments, Delayed Draw Term Loans, and Revolving Extensions of Credit of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders, the Majority Facility Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.1); provided, that any waiver, amendment or modification that increases the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, forgives all or any portion of the principal amount of any Loan or Reimbursement Obligation or interest thereon owing to a Defaulting Lender, reduces the Applicable Margin on the underlying interest rate options owing to a Defaulting Lender or extends the Revolving Maturity Date or the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date applicable to such Defaulting Lender shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;
(c)if any L/C Exposure exists with respect to a Lender at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
52


(i)all or any part of such L/C Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Percentages but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Extensions of Credit, plus such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments, (y) the sum of each non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit would not exceed its Revolving Commitment and (z) the conditions set forth in Section 5.2 are satisfied at such time; and
(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within ten (10) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent, cash collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) by depositing amounts into the collateral account in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 8 for so long as such L/C Exposure is outstanding;
(iii)if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure pursuant to Section 2.22(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is cash collateralized;
(iv)if the L/C Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to Section 2.22(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 3.3(a) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages; or
(v)if any Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.22, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Lender or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.3(a) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Lenders until such L/C Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;
(d)so long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be one hundred percent (100%) covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in the amount of the Defaulting Lender’s L/C Exposure in accordance with Section 2.22, and participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.22(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and
(e)in the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Issuing Lenders each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the L/C Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Revolving Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Revolving Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Revolving Percentage.
2.23Extension of Revolving Maturity Date.
(a)The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each of the Revolving Lenders) given at least 30 days but not more than 120 days prior to (i) the Initial Revolving Maturity Date, extend the Revolving Maturity Date for up to six months (such extended Revolving Maturity Date, the “First Extended Revolving Maturity Date”) and (ii) the First Extended Revolving Maturity Date, extend the Revolving Maturity Date for up to an additional six months (such extended Revolving Maturity Date, the “Second Extended Revolving Maturity Date”), in each case, so long as (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such written notice and on the effective date of such extension and (B) the Borrower pays an extension fee equal to 0.0625% of the then existing Revolving Commitments (to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Lenders).
(b)The Borrower may, by delivering a written notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Revolving Lenders), not less than 60 days in advance of the Revolving Maturity Date in effect at such time (the “Existing Revolving Maturity Date”), request that the Revolving Lenders extend the Existing Revolving Maturity Date. Each Revolving Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is the 20th day after the date of the such request (the “Revolving Extension Response Date”), advise the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Revolving Lender agrees to the requested extension. Each Revolving Lender that advises the Administrative Agent that it will not extend the Existing Revolving Maturity Date is referred to herein as a “Non-Extending Revolving
53


Lender”; provided, that any Revolving Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent of its consent to such requested extension by the Revolving Extension Response Date and any Revolving Lender that is a Defaulting Lender on the Revolving Extension Response Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Revolving Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the Revolving Lenders’ elections promptly following the Revolving Extension Response Date. The election of any Lender to agree to such an extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree. The Revolving Maturity Date may be extended no more than two times pursuant to this Section 2.23(b). Each extension pursuant to this Section 2.23(b) shall be offered ratably to each Revolving Lender and shall be subject to the following provisions:
(1)(i) If, by the Revolving Extension Response Date, Revolving Lenders holding then existing Revolving Commitments that aggregate 50% or more of the total Revolving Commitments shall constitute Non-Extending Revolving Lenders, then the Existing Revolving Maturity Date shall not be extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall be payable, and the Revolving Commitments shall terminate, on the Existing Revolving Maturity Date in effect prior to such extension.
(ii) If (and only if), by the Revolving Extension Response Date, Revolving Lenders holding Revolving Commitments that aggregate more than 50% of the total Revolving Commitments shall have agreed to extend the Existing Revolving Maturity Date (each such consenting Revolving Lender, an “Extending Revolving Lender”), then effective as of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date, the Revolving Maturity Date for such Extending Revolving Lenders shall be so extended (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.23(b)). In the event of such extension, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Revolving Lender shall terminate on the Existing Revolving Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Revolving Lender prior to such extension and the outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-Extending Revolving Lender shall become due and payable on such Existing Revolving Maturity Date and, subject to Section 2.23(b)(2) below, the total Revolving Commitments hereunder shall be reduced by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders so terminated on such Existing Revolving Maturity Date.
(2)In the event of any extension of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.23(b), the Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Revolving Maturity Date, at its own expense, to require any Non-Extending Revolving Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.6) all its interests, rights (other than its rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.17 or Section 10.4 arising prior to the effectiveness of such assignment) and obligations under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions identified to the Non-Extending Revolving Lender by the Borrower, which may include any existing Revolving Lender (each a “Replacement Revolving Lender”); provided, that (x) such Replacement Revolving Lender, if not already a Revolving Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Lender to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders, as applicable, would be required to effect an assignment under Section 10.6; such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Borrower (which shall not be later than the Existing Revolving Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Revolving Lender prior to the effective date of the requested extension) and the Replacement Revolving Lender shall pay to such Non-Extending Revolving Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the outstanding principal amount Revolving Loans made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued and unpaid for its account or otherwise owed to it hereunder on such date.
(3)As a condition precedent to each such extension of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.23(b), the Borrower shall (x) deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, as of such date, both before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be accurate in all respects) and that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and (y) first make such prepayments of the outstanding Revolving Loans and second provide such cash collateral (or make such other arrangements satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Lender) with respect to the outstanding Letters of Credit as shall be required such that, after giving effect to the termination of the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Extending Revolving Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.23(b) and any assignment pursuant to Section 2.23(b)(2), the aggregate Revolving Exposure less the face amount of any Letter of Credit

supported by any such cash collateral (or other satisfactory arrangements) so provided does not exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments being extended.
(4)(i) The interest margins with respect to the extended Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans may be different than the interest margins for the non-extended Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and upfront fees may be paid to the Extending Revolving Lenders, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable extension amendment; (ii) the applicable loan extension amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest applicable Maturity Date of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans being extended; and (iii) no extended Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans shall be entitled to the benefit of any collateral or guarantees while any existing Facility is outstanding unless all outstanding existing Facilities also receive the benefit of such collateral or guarantees.
(5)For the avoidance of doubt, no consent of any Lender (other than the existing Revolving Lenders participating in the extension of the Existing Revolving Maturity Date) shall be required for any extension of the Revolving Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.23(b) and any extension amendment may include such technical amendments to this Agreement as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. This Section 2.23(b) shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.15 and 10.1 to the contrary.
2.24Extension of Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date.
(a)The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify each of the Delayed Draw Term Lenders) given at least 30 days but not more than 120 days prior to (i) the Initial Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, extend the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date for up to one year (such extended Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, the “First Extended Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date”) and (ii) the First Extended Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, extend the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date for up to an additional one year (such extended Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, the “Second Extended Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date”), in each case, so long as (A) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such written notice and on the effective date of such extension and (B) the Borrower pays an extension fee equal to 0.125% of the then outstanding principal amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loans (to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Delayed Draw Term Lenders).
(b)The Borrower may, by delivering a written notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Delayed Draw Term Lenders), not less than 60 days in advance of the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date in effect at such time (the “Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date”), request that the Delayed Draw Term Lenders extend the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date. Each Delayed Draw Term Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is the 20th day after the date of the such request (the “Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date”), advise the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such Delayed Draw Term Lender agrees to the requested extension. Each Delayed Draw Term Lender that advises the Administrative Agent that it will not extend the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date is referred to herein as a “Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender”; provided, that any Delayed Draw Term Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent of its consent to such requested extension by the Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date and any Delayed Draw Term Lender that is a Defaulting Lender on the Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the Delayed Draw Term Lenders’ elections promptly following the Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date. The election of any Lender to agree to such an extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree. The Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date may be extended no more than two times pursuant to this Section 2.24(b). Each extension pursuant to this Section 2.24(b) shall be offered ratably to each Delayed Draw Term Lender and shall be subject to the following provisions:
(1)(i) If, by the Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date, Delayed Draw Term Lenders holding then existing Available Delayed Draw Term Commitments and then outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans that aggregate 50% or more of the total of the sum of the then existing Available Delayed Draw Term Commitments and then outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans shall constitute Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lenders, then the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date shall not be extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Delayed Draw Term Loans and other amounts payable hereunder shall be payable, and the Delayed Draw Term Commitments shall terminate, on the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date in effect prior to such extension.
55


(ii) If (and only if), by the Delayed Draw Term Extension Response Date, Delayed Draw Term Lenders holding then existing Available Delayed Draw Term Commitments and then outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans that aggregate more than 50% of the total of the sum of the then existing Available Delayed Draw Term Commitments and then outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans shall have agreed to extend the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date (each such consenting Delayed Draw Term Lender, an “Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender”), then effective as of the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date for such Extending Delayed Draw Term Lenders shall be so extended (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.24(b)). In the event of such extension, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender shall terminate on the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender prior to such extension and the outstanding principal balance of all Delayed Draw Term Loans and other amounts payable hereunder to such Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender shall become due and payable on such Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date and, subject to Section 2.24(b)(2) below, the total Delayed Draw Term Commitments hereunder shall be reduced by the Delayed Draw Term Commitments of the Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lenders so terminated on such Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date.
(2)In the event of any extension of the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.24(b), the Borrower shall have the right on or before the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date, at its own expense, to require any Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.6) all its interests, rights (other than its rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.16 or Section 2.17 or Section 10.4 arising prior to the effectiveness of such assignment) and obligations under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions identified to the Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender by the Borrower, which may include any existing Delayed Draw Term Lender (each a “Replacement Delayed Draw Term Lender”); provided, that (x) such Replacement Delayed Draw Term Lender, if not already a Delayed Draw Term Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent would be required to effect an assignment under Section 10.6; such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Borrower (which shall not be later than the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender prior to the effective date of the requested extension) and the Replacement Delayed Draw Term Lender shall pay to such Non-Extending Delayed Draw Term Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the outstanding principal amount Delayed Draw Term Loans made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued and unpaid for its account or otherwise owed to it hereunder on such date.
(3)As a condition precedent to each such extension of the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.24(b), the Borrower shall (x) deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of the Borrower dated as of the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower certifying that, as of such date, both before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects (other than any representation or warranty qualified as to “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, which shall be accurate in all respects) and that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
(4)(i) The interest margins with respect to the extended Delayed Draw Term Loans may be different than the interest margins for the non-extended Delayed Draw Term Loans and upfront fees may be paid to the Extending Delayed Draw Term Lenders, in each case, to the extent provided in the applicable extension amendment; (ii) the applicable loan extension amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the latest applicable Maturity Date of the Delayed Draw Term Loans being extended; and (iii) no extended Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be entitled to the benefit of any collateral or guarantees while any existing Facility is outstanding unless all outstanding existing Facilities also receive the benefit of such collateral or guarantees.
(5)For the avoidance of doubt, no consent of any Lender (other than the existing Delayed Draw Term Lenders participating in the extension of the Existing Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date) shall be required for any extension of the Delayed Draw Term Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.24(b) and any extension amendment may include such technical amendments to this Agreement as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative
56


Agent and the Borrower. This Section 2.24(b) shall supersede any provisions in Sections 2.15 and 10.1 to the contrary.
SECTION 3.LETTERS OF CREDIT
3.1L/C Commitment.
(a)Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Borrower may request that any Issuing Lender, in reliance on the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in Section 3.4(a), issue standby letters of credit (“Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrower (or for the account of the Borrower and one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries) denominated in Dollars on any Business Day during the Revolving Commitment Period in such form as may be approved from time to time by such Issuing Lender; provided, that no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (i) the L/C Obligations would exceed the L/C Commitment, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Available Revolving Commitments would be less than zero or (iii) unless such Issuing Lender otherwise consents, the L/C Obligations with respect to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Lender would exceed the Issuing Lender Commitment of such Issuing Lender. Each Letter of Credit shall (i) be denominated in Dollars and (ii) expire no later than the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of its date of issuance and (y) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; provided, that any Letter of Credit with a tenor of one year or less may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional periods of one year or less (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (y) above, subject to the penultimate sentence of this Section 3.1(a)) so long as such Letter of Credit permits the applicable Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Once an automatic renewal Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the date referred to in clause (y) above; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if it has received written notice on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date from any Lender or the Administrative Agent that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension. Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, if agreed by the applicable Issuing Lender, a Letter of Credit may extend up to one year beyond the Revolving Maturity Date; provided, that the Borrower shall deliver cash collateral to the applicable Issuing Lender in an amount equal to 103% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit no later than ninety-one (91) days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date.
(b)No Issuing Lender shall at any time be obligated to issue any Letter of Credit if such issuance would conflict with, or cause the Issuing Lender or any L/C Participant to exceed any limits imposed by, any applicable Requirement of Law or would violate such Issuing Lender’s internal policies or procedures. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Issuing Lender shall have an obligation hereunder to issue any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made to any Person (i) to fund any prohibited activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory, that at the time of such funding is the subject of any Sanctions or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.
(c)Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Restricted Subsidiary, or states that a Restricted Subsidiary is the “account party,” “applicant,” “customer,” “instructing party,” or the like of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any rights of the Issuing Lender (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the Issuing Lender hereunder for all obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit (including to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder), as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of the Borrower and (ii) the Borrower irrevocably waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.
3.2Procedure for Issuance of Letter of Credit. The Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit by delivering to the applicable Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent at their address for notices specified herein a request and an Application therefor, completed to the satisfaction of the applicable Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the applicable Issuing Lender may request, including a continuing agreement (or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of Letters of Credit as required by the respective Issuing Lender and using such Issuing Lender’s standard form. Upon receipt of any Application, the applicable Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates,
57


documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and, unless it has received written notice from the Administrative Agent at least one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance that a Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, shall promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue any Letter of Credit earlier than three (3) Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by the applicable Issuing Lender and the Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance thereof. The applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the Lenders, notice of the issuance of each Letter of Credit (including the amount thereof).
3.3Fees and Other Charges.
(a)The Borrower will pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders a fee on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin under the Revolving Facility then in effect with respect to Term Benchmark Loans on the average daily amount of the L/C Obligations (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed drawings), shared ratably among the Revolving Lenders and payable in Dollars quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each applicable Issuing Lender, for its own account, a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum on the average daily amount of the L/C Obligations (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed drawings), payable in Dollars quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.
(b)In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars for customary costs and expenses as are incurred or charged by the Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit.
3.4L/C Participations.
(a)Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce each Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from each Issuing Lender, on the terms set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in each Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amount of each draft paid by an Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, upon demand, at the Administrative Agent’s address for notices specified herein an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed. Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
(b)If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant for the account of any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by any such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Lender, on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the applicable Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, the applicable Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility. A certificate of the applicable Issuing Lender submitted to the Administrative Agent and any L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3 shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error.
58


(c)Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), such Issuing Lender receives any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by such Issuing Lender), or any payment of interest on account thereof, such Issuing Lender will distribute to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such L/C Participant, its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment received by such Issuing Lender shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.
3.5Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower. If any drawing is paid under any Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse the Administrative Agent for the amount of (a) the drawing so paid in Dollars and (b) any taxes, fees, charges or other costs or expenses incurred by any Issuing Lender in connection with such payment, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such drawing, if such notice is received on such day prior to 10:00 A.M., New York City time, or (ii) if clause (i) above does not apply, the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives notice of such drawing; provided, that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.5 and the provisions below that such payment to be reimbursed be financed with an ABR Revolving Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Revolving Loan. Each such payment shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its address for notices referred to herein in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.5, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant drawing is paid until payment in full at the rate set forth in (x) until the Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice, Section 2.12(c) and (y) thereafter, Section 2.12(e).
3.6Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor the Issuing Lenders, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of any Issuing Lender; provided, that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Lenders from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by any such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, any Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
3.7Letter of Credit Payments. If any documents shall be presented for payment under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall, within the time allowed by applicable law or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly after such examination notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower of the date and amount thereof. The responsibility of the applicable Issuing Lender to the Borrower in connection with any documents presented for payment under any Letter of Credit shall, in addition to any payment obligation expressly provided for in such Letter of Credit, be limited to determining that the documents delivered under such Letter of Credit in connection with such presentment are substantially in conformity with such Letter of Credit.
59


3.8Applications. To the extent that any provision of any Application related to any Letter of Credit is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section 3, the provisions of this Section 3 shall apply.
3.9Replacement of Issuing Lender. (i) Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.3. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
(ii)Any Issuing Lender may resign as an Issuing Lender at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 3.9(i) above.
SECTION 4.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans or to issue or participate in the Letters of Credit, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:
4.1Financial Condition.
(a)The pro forma covenant compliance certificate described in Section 5.1(i), copies of which have heretofore been furnished to the Administrative Agent, has been prepared giving effect (as if such events had occurred on such date) to (i) the Loans to be made on the Closing Date (if any) and the use of proceeds thereof, (ii) the repayment of Indebtedness under the Existing Credit Agreement (if any) and (iii) the payment of fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing. Such certificate has been prepared in good faith based on the information available to the Borrower as of the date of delivery thereof, and presents fairly in all material respects on a pro forma basis the estimated financial covenant compliance of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at the Closing Date, assuming that the events specified in the preceding sentence had actually occurred at such date.
(b)The audited consolidated balance sheets of VICI and its Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2020, and the related consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date, reported on by and accompanied by an unqualified report from Deloitte & Touche LLP, after giving effect to any “segment information” in such financial statements, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such date, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the fiscal year then ended. The unaudited consolidated balance sheet of VICI and its Subsidiaries as at March 31, 2021, June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2021, and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income and cash flows for the three-month periods ended on such dates, after giving effect to any “segment information” in such financial statements, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as at such dates, and the consolidated results of its operations and its consolidated cash flows for the three-month periods then ended (subject to normal year end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes). All such financial statements, including the related schedules and notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved (except as approved by the aforementioned firm of accountants and disclosed therein and except for the lack of footnotes with interim statements). No Group Member has any material Guarantee Obligations, contingent liabilities and liabilities for taxes, or any long-term leases or unusual forward or long-term commitments, including any interest rate or foreign currency swap or exchange transaction or other obligation in respect of derivatives, that are not reflected in the most recent financial statements referred to in this Section 4.1.
4.2No Change. Since December 31, 2020, there has been no development or event that has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.3Existence; Compliance with Law. Each Group Member (a) is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization except where such failure to be in good standing of any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor would not reasonably be expected to, individually or in the aggregate, result in a Material Adverse Effect, (b) has the power and authority,
60


and the legal right, to own and operate its property, to lease the property it operates as lessee and to conduct the business in which it is currently engaged except to the extent that its failure could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (c) is duly qualified as a foreign corporation or other organization and in good standing under the laws of each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of property or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, except to the extent that its failure to be so qualified could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) is in compliance with all Requirements of Law except to the extent that the failure to comply therewith could not, in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
4.4Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. Each Loan Party has the power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to obtain extensions of credit hereunder. Each Loan Party has taken all necessary organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Borrower, to authorize the extensions of credit on the terms and conditions of this Agreement. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the extensions of credit hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents, except (i) consents, authorizations, filings and notices that have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (ii) any filings with the SEC when and as required by law or deemed appropriate by the Borrower, (iii) any filings in connection with the perfection of security interests to the extent required by Section 6.16, and (iv) other consents, authorizations, filings and notices the failure of which to obtain could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Loan Document has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Loan Party party thereto. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document upon execution will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party thereto, enforceable against each such Loan Party in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).
4.5No Legal Bar.

(g)(i) any Person shall engage in any non-exempt Prohibited Transaction involving any Plan, (ii) any “accumulated funding deficiency” (as defined in Section 302 of ERISA), whether or not waived, shall exist with respect to any Plan or any Lien in favor of the PBGC or a Plan shall arise on the assets of any Group Member or any Commonly Controlled Entity, (iii) a Reportable Event shall occur with respect to, or proceedings shall commence to have a trustee appointed, or a trustee shall be appointed, to administer or to terminate, any Single Employer Plan or Multiemployer Plan, which Reportable Event or commencement of proceedings or appointment of a trustee is, in the reasonable opinion of the Required Lenders, likely to result in the termination of such Plan for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, (iv) any Single Employer Plan or Multiemployer Plan shall terminate for purposes of Title IV of ERISA, or (v) any Group Member or any Commonly Controlled Entity shall, or in the reasonable opinion of the Required Lenders would be reasonably likely to, incur any liability in connection with a complete or partial withdrawal from, or a determination that any Multiemployer Plan is, or is expected to be, Insolvent, in “endangered” or “critical” status (within the meaning of Sections 431 or 432 of the Code or Sections 304 or 305 of ERISA); and in each case in clauses (i) through (v) above, such event or condition, together with all other such events or conditions, if any, would, in the reasonable judgment of the Required Lenders, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; or
(h)one or more final judgments or decrees shall be entered against any Group Member (other than an Immaterial Subsidiary) involving in the aggregate a liability (not paid or fully covered by insurance as to which the relevant insurance company has not denied coverage) of $150,000,000 or more, and all such judgments or decrees shall not have been vacated, discharged, stayed or bonded pending appeal within 60 days from the entry thereof; or
(i)any of the Loan Documents (or any material provisions thereof) shall cease, for any reason, to be in full force and effect, or any Loan Party or any Affiliate of any Loan Party shall so assert other than as expressly permitted hereunder or thereunder; or
(j)other than in connection with any transaction not prohibited by Section 7.5, any Significant Master Lease shall have terminated other than in accordance with its terms; provided, that such termination shall not constitute an Event of Default (and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall take any of the actions referred to in this Section 8) if, within 90 days of such termination, (x) the Borrower has entered into one or more Permitted Replacement Leases and (y) in the case of a Permitted Replacement Lease, the Borrower shall be in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.1 on a pro forma basis (including after giving effect to such Permitted Replacement Leases (as if such Permitted Replacement Leases had been in effect for the most recent four fiscal quarter period for which financial statements have been or are required to have been delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or (b))); or
(k)a Change of Control occurs;
then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified in clause (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of paragraph (f) above with respect to the Borrower, automatically the Commitments shall immediately terminate and the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) shall immediately become due and payable (and the obligation to deposit cash collateral for Letters of Credit described below shall become effectively immediately and such deposits shall become immediately due and payable), and (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, either or both of the following actions may be taken: (i) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower declare the Commitments to be terminated forthwith, whereupon the Commitments shall immediately terminate; and (ii) with the consent of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all amounts of L/C Obligations, whether or not the beneficiaries of the then outstanding Letters of Credit shall have presented the documents required thereunder) to be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable. With respect to all Letters of Credit with respect to which presentment for
75


honor shall not have occurred at the time of an acceleration pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall at such time deposit in a cash collateral account opened by the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the aggregate then undrawn and unexpired amount of such Letters of Credit plus the aggregate amount of drawings under such Letters of Credit that have not then been reimbursed. Amounts held in such cash collateral account shall be held as collateral for the payment and performance of the Obligations and shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to the payment of drafts drawn under such Letters of Credit, and the unused portion thereof after all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, if any, shall be applied to repay other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon, all Reimbursement Obligations shall have been satisfied and all other obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such cash collateral account shall be returned to the Borrower (or such other Person as may be lawfully entitled thereto). Except as expressly provided above in this Section 8, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.
    Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in the event that there shall occur any Default or Event of Default arising as a result of the inclusion of any Real Property as an Unencumbered Property and if such Default or Event of Default is capable of being cured solely by the exclusion of such Real Property as an Unencumbered Property, then within 10 Business Days from the earlier of (i) receipt of written notice of such Default or Event of Default from the Administrative Agent or (ii) the date upon which a Responsible Officer of the Borrower obtains knowledge of such Default or Event of Default, the Borrower may elect to cure such Default or Event of Default by electing to remove such Unencumbered Property upon the delivery of (x) written notice to the Administrative Agent thereof and (y) delivery of a Compliance Certificate excluding such Real Property as an Unencumbered Property and evidencing compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 7.1 (after giving effect to such removal) for the periods such Real Property was included as an Unencumbered Property. The Borrower’s notice of its election and delivery of the Compliance Certificate pursuant to clause (y) above pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent within the period of 10 Business Days provided above, and if not so delivered the Borrower’s cure period shall immediately terminate and any such Default shall become an Event of Default.
In the event that following the occurrence or during the continuance of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or any Lender, as the case may be, receives any monies in connection with the enforcement of any the Loan Documents, such monies shall be distributed for application as follows:
(a)First, to pay that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts payable to the Administrative Agent (including fees and disbursements and other charges of counsel to the Administrative Agent payable under Section 10.5 and amounts pursuant to Section 2.6(b) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such);
(b)Second, to pay any fees or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Loan Parties;
(c)Third, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations ratably,
(d)Fourth, to payment of Obligations constituting principal on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and obligations under Cash Management Services and Specified Swap Agreements due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Loan Parties, in each case ratably among the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and their Affiliates in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Fourth payable to them,
(e)Fifth, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the aggregate undrawn face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid Reimbursement Obligations, to be held as cash collateral for such Obligations, in each case ratably among the Issuing Lenders in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Fifth; and
(f)Sixth, to the payment of any other Obligation due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent or any Lender by the Loan Parties.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from any Subsidiary Guarantor shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Subsidiary Guarantor.

SECTION 9.THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
9.1Authorization and Action. (a) Each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Loan Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.
(b)As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and each Issuing Lender; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (1) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders with respect to such action or (2) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
(c)In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(A)the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender or any Issuing Lender other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby; and
(B)nothing in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account;
(d)The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall
77


not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.
(e)No Arranger, Co-Syndication Agent, or Co-Documentation Agent shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.
(f)In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Reimbursement Obligation shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(A)to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Disbursements and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.6, 2.12, 2.13, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(B)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and each Issuing Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under Section 10.5). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or any Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or any Issuing Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or any Issuing Lender in any such proceeding.
(g)The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions.
9.2Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Limitation of Liability, Etc.. (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.
(b)The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 6.7 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 6.7” in respect of this Agreement and identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, or (ii) notice of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. Further, the Administrative Agent shall not
78


be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (D) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for, or be responsible for any Liabilities, costs or expenses suffered by the Borrower, any Subsidiary, any Lender or any Issuing Lender as a result of, any determination of the Revolving Exposure, any of the component amounts thereof or any portion thereof attributable to each Lender or Issuing Lender.
(c)Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 10.6, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 10.6(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Lender sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).
9.3Posting of Communications. (a) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).
(b)Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing Date a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
(c)THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER, ANY CO-SYNDICATION AGENT, ANY CO-DOCUMENTATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE
79


ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT SUCH LIABILITIES ARE DETERMINED BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A FINAL AND NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT TO HAVE RESULTED FROM THE GROSS NEGLIGENCE, BAD FAITH OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OF SUCH APPLICABLE PARTY; PROVIDED THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY APPLICABLE PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (AS OPPOSED TO DIRECT OR ACTUAL DAMAGES).
(d)Each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.
(e)Each of the Lenders, each of the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.
(f)Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.
9.4The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitments, Loans, Letter of Credit Commitments and Letters of Credit, the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing Lenders”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Lender or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders.
9.5Successor Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.
(b)Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section 9.5, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent;
80


provided, that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.5, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
9.6Acknowledgments of Lenders and Issuing Lenders. (a) Each Lender and each Issuing Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender or Issuing Lender, in each case in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender and each Issuing Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender or such Issuing Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender and each Issuing Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent, any Co-Documentation Agent or any other Lender or Issuing Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.
(b)Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.
(c)
(A) Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands in writing (email being sufficient) the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 9.6(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

This Section 10.5(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim and shall be without duplication of any matters addressed under Sections 2.16 and 2.17.

(A)the Borrower; provided, that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund (as defined below) or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other Person that is an Eligible Assignee; provided, further, that the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof;

(E)each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, that this clause (E) shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;
(F)the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6.
    (iv)    The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
    (v)    Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the Assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this Section 10.6.
(c)(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (other than the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates or a natural person) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided, that (x) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (y) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (z) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.1 that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, 2.17 and 2.18 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender; provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such
89


Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
    (ii)    Each Participant shall agree to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.20 as though it were a Lender. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or 2.17 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation or the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent, which consent specifically refers to this Section 10.6(c)(ii).
(d)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 10.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(e)If requested by any Lender, the Borrower shall execute and deliver a Note to such Lender, and, if requested, replacement Notes executed by the Borrower.
(f)Disqualified Institutions. (i) No assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Institution as of the date (the “Trade Date”) on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Borrower has consented to such assignment or participation in writing in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Institution for the purpose of such assignment or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred to in, the definition of “Disqualified Institution”), (x) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be disqualified from becoming a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by the Borrower of an Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Institution. Any assignment or participation in violation of this clause (f)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (f) shall apply.
(ii)If any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Institution without the Borrower’s prior written consent in violation of clause (i) above or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Institution after the applicable Trade Date, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Institution and the Administrative Agent, (A) terminate any Revolving Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Revolving Commitment, plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, (B) terminate any Delayed Draw Term Commitment of such Disqualified Institution and repay all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Disqualified Institution in connection with such Delayed Draw Term Commitment, plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, (C) in the case of outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loans held by Disqualified Institutions, purchase or prepay such Delayed Draw Term Loans by paying the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest fees and other amounts payable to it hereunder and/or (D) require such Disqualified Institution to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 10.6), all of its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Assignees at the principal amount thereof plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder.
(iii)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Institutions to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation of clause (i) above (A) will not (x) have the right to receive information, reports or other materials provided to Lenders by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B) for purposes of any consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each Disqualified Institution will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Institutions consented to such matter.
90


(iv)The Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Borrower hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the list of Disqualified Institutions provided by the Borrower and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “Disqualified Institution List”) on an Approved Electronic Platform, including that portion of such Approved Electronic Platform that is designated for “public side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the Disqualified Institution List to each Lender requesting the same.
10.7Adjustments; Setoff.
(a)Except to the extent that this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under a particular Facility, if any Lender (a “Benefitted Lender”) shall receive any payment of all or part of the Obligations owing to it, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of the Obligations owing to such other Lender, such Benefitted Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of the Obligations owing to each such other Lender, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefitted Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefitted Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.
(b)In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), to set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such setoff and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.
10.8Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.
(a)This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to (i) fees payable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the reductions of the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Lender constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.
(b)Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.2), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each, an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided, that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower or
91


any other Loan Party without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic Signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrower and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower and/or any Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.
10.9Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.
10.10No Fiduciary Duty, Etc.. (a) The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto.
(b)The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrower and other companies with which the Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.
(c)In addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

10.19Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively, the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 10.21 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.
10.22Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:
(a)the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b)the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i)a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
(ii)a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document (provided, however, that the Borrower shall be entitled to transfer, assign or waive its right to receive any such shares or other instruments to the extent necessary or prudent to preserve its status as a REIT, to the extent permitted by applicable law); or
(iii)the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.
10.23Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
96


(together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).
(a)In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
10.24Non-Recourse. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents, or in any other instruments, certificates, documents or agreements executed in connection with this Agreement (all of the foregoing, for purposes of this Section 10.24, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the “Relevant Documents”), no recourse under or upon any Obligation, representation, warranty, promise or other matter whatsoever shall be had against any of the constituent general or limited partners of the Borrower or their successors and assigns (said constituent partners and their successors and assigns, for purposes of this Section 10.24, hereinafter referred to, individually and collectively, as the “VICI OP Partners”), and each Lender expressly waives and releases, on behalf of itself and its successors and assigns, all right to assert any liability whatsoever under or with respect to the Relevant Documents against, or to satisfy any claim or obligation arising thereunder against, any of the VICI OP Partners or out of any assets of the VICI OP Partners, provided, however, that nothing in this Section 10.24 shall be deemed to (1) release the Borrower or the other Loan Parties from any personal liability pursuant to, or from any of its respective obligations under, the Relevant Documents, or from personal liability for its fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions, (2) release any VICI OP Partner from personal liability for its own fraudulent actions or fraudulent omissions in relation to which liability would otherwise exist under applicable law, (3) constitute a waiver of any obligation evidenced by, or contained in, the Relevant Documents or affect in any way the validity or enforceability of the Relevant Documents or (4) limit the right of Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders to proceed against or realize upon any and all of the assets of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties (notwithstanding the fact that the VICI OP Partners have an ownership interest in and, thereby, an interest in the assets of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties) or to name the Borrower or the other Loan Parties (or, to the extent that the same are required by applicable law or are determined by a court to be necessary parties in connection with an action or suit against the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, any of the VICI OP Partners) as a party defendant in, and to enforce against all or any part of the assets of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties any judgment obtained by Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders with respect to, any action or suit under the Relevant Documents so long as no judgment shall be taken or shall be enforced against the VICI OP Partners, their successors and assigns, or their assets (except (i) to the extent taking a judgment is required by applicable law or determined by a court to be necessary to preserve Administrative Agent’s and/or Lender’s rights against the Borrower or the other Loan Parties, but not otherwise and (ii) any judgment or enforcement in respect of personal liability of a VICI OP Partner described in clause (2) above).
10.25Limited Equity Pledge. No later than the closing of the MGP Transactions, Borrower shall cause its direct parent entity at such time (the “Borrower Parent”) to deliver a pledge of the limited partnership interests of the Borrower owned by such Borrower Parent as collateral to secure the Obligations pursuant to a pledge agreement (the “Limited Equity Pledge Agreement”, and such pledge under the Limited Equity Pledge Agreement, the “Limited Equity Pledge”) in form and substance reasonably agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (provided, that (x) it being agreed and understood the execution of, and being obligated under, such Limited Equity Pledge Agreement shall not cause the Borrower Parent to have a Guarantee Obligation in respect of the Obligations and there shall not be any recourse against the Borrower Parent in connection therewith and (y) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the existence of the Limited Equity Pledge Agreement shall not, in and of itself, cause the Indebtedness under the Loan Documents (or any other Indebtedness that may from time to time benefit from such Limited Equity Pledge Agreement or any similar other agreement granting a substantially identical lien as the Limited Equity Pledge Agreement) to be Secured Indebtedness. The Limited Equity Pledge Agreement (and the security interests thereunder) shall remain in effect until released or terminated in accordance with its terms or with the consent of the Required Lenders, and upon such release or termination, the Administrative Agent is authorized
97


by the Lenders to execute and deliver any release or assignment documents reasonably requested by, and at the expense of, the Borrower.
10.26Payments Set Aside. To the extent that any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises its right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party, in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or otherwise, then (a) to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof originally intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred, and (b) each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent upon demand its applicable share (without duplication) of any amount so recovered from or repaid by the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the greater of the NYFRB Rate from time to time in effect and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
