effective one Business Day after the date on which the LC Issuer receives such certificate; provided, that until the Company has delivered to the LC Issuer such certificate pursuant to Section 6.04(c) in respect of the first Fiscal Quarter of 2005, the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be at Level 3; provided, further, that for so long as the Company has not delivered such certificate when due pursuant to Section 6.04(c), the Leverage Ratio shall be deemed to be at the level set forth in Level 6 until the respective certificate is delivered to the LC Issuer; and (c) the Performance Level shall be determined in accordance with the Company’s respective public debt rating and Leverage Ratio, provided, that, if the Company’s public debt rating and the Leverage Ratio shall fall within different levels, the Performance Level will be determined by the higher of the public debt rating and the Leverage Ratio, provided, further, that, in the event that the lower of the Company’s public debt rating and the Leverage Ratio is more than one level below the higher of the Company’s public debt rating and the Leverage Ratio, the Performance Level shall be determined based upon the level that is one level above the lower of the Company’s public debt rating and the Leverage Ratio.

(b) Elect that such Letters of Credit be deemed issued pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement or any other agreement under which letters of credit may be issued and the LC Issuer is an issuing bank (in each case to the extent permitted by the terms of such agreement), following which election such Letters of Credit shall be deemed terminated according to the provisions of this Agreement and issued pursuant to the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement or such other letter of credit agreement, as the case may be; provided, that in each case sufficient availability exists at such time under the terms of the Revolving Credit Agreement or such other letter of credit agreement, as the case may be, to permit the relevant Letters of Credit to be deemed issued thereunder.

PAYMENTS, TAXES, ETC.

SECTION 3.01 Payments and Computations. (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.02 hereof, the Company and each LC Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall make each payment with respect to the Letters of Credit and the LC Issuer free and clear of all claims, charges, offsets or deductions whatsoever not later than (i) if such payment relates to letter of credit facility fees or amounts (other than reimbursements for payments in an Alternative Currency made under Letters of Credit) or if such payment relates to a Letter of Credit denominated in Dollars, 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the LC Issuer at its address referred to in Section 8.02 hereof in same day funds and (ii) if such payment relates to reimbursement of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (A) in such Alternative Currency, at the LC Issuer’s Payment Office therefor so long as such payment is made by the close of business on the Business Day when due and (B) thereafter in Dollars (at the then Dollar equivalent of the amount due on such preceding Business Day), by 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) to the LC Issuer at its address referred to in Section 8.02 hereof in same day funds as provided in Section 2.13 above.

(b) The Company and each LC Subsidiary hereby authorize the LC Issuer, if and to the extent payment owed to the LC Issuer is not paid when due hereunder to charge from time to time against any or all of the Company’s or such LC Subsidiary’s accounts with the LC Issuer any amount so due (it being understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any of the other LC Facility Documents to the contrary, accounts, deposits, sums, securities or other property of any Foreign Subsidiary or of any Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary (including any Foreign Subsidiary or any Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary that is an LC Subsidiary) will not serve at any time, directly or indirectly, to collateralize or otherwise offset the Obligations of the Company or any Domestic Subsidiary, and, in addition, unless otherwise agreed to by the Company, the accounts, deposits, sums, securities or other property of a Foreign Subsidiary or Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary will only serve to collateralize or offset the Obligations of another Foreign Subsidiary or Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary that is an LC Subsidiary if such former Foreign Subsidiary or Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary is owned by such latter Foreign Subsidiary or Subsidiary of a Foreign Subsidiary that is an LC Subsidiary).

(c) All computations of interest based on the Base Rate and of letter of credit facility fees shall be made by the LC Issuer on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, in each case for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or letter of credit facility fees are payable. Each determination by the LC Issuer of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(d) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or letter of credit facility fee, as the case may be.

SECTION 3.02 Taxes. (a) Any and all payments by the Company and each LC Subsidiary hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities

 

24


with respect thereto, excluding taxes imposed on the overall net income of the LC Issuer, and franchise taxes imposed on the LC Issuer, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which the LC Issuer is organized or any political subdivision thereof and taxes imposed on the overall net income of the LC Issuer, and franchise taxes imposed on the LC Issuer, by the jurisdiction of the LC Issuer’s Applicable Issuing Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”). If the Company or any LC Subsidiary shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under any LC Facility Document to the LC Issuer, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.02) the LC Issuer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Company or such LC Subsidiary shall make such deductions, (iii) the Company or respective LC Subsidiary shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable Requirements of Law and (iv) as soon as practicable after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Company or respective LC Subsidiary shall furnish to the LC Issuer, at its address referred to on the signature page hereto, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, to the extent such a receipt is issued therefore, or other evidence of payment thereof that is reasonably satisfactory to the LC Issuer.

(b) In addition, the Company agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or registration of, performance under or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or the Letters of Credit (hereinafter referred to as “Other Taxes”).

(c) The Company or the respective LC Subsidiary will indemnify the LC Issuer for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes of any kind imposed or asserted by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 3.02) imposed on or paid by the LC Issuer and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A reimbursement shall be made within 30 days from the date the LC Issuer makes written demand therefor. The LC Issuer shall give prompt (within 10 Business Days) notice to the Company of the payment by the LC Issuer of such amounts payable by the Company under the indemnity set forth in this subsection (c), and of the assertion by any governmental or taxing authority that such amounts are due and payable, but the failure to give such notice shall not affect the Company’s or any LC Subsidiary’s obligations hereunder to reimburse the LC Issuer for such Taxes or Other Taxes or Taxes imposed or asserted on amounts payable under this Section 3.02, except that neither the Company nor any LC Subsidiary shall be liable for penalties or interest accrued or incurred from the commencement of such 10 Business Day period until 10 Business Days after it receives the notice contemplated above, after which time it shall be liable for interest and penalties accrued or incurred prior to such 10 Business Day period and accrued or incurred beginning 10 Business Days after such receipt. Neither the Company nor any LC Subsidiary shall be liable for any penalties, interest, expense or other liability with respect to such Taxes or Other Taxes after it has reimbursed the amount thereof to the LC Issuer.

 

25


(d) If the LC Issuer is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Company (but only so long as the LC Issuer remains lawfully able to do so), it shall provide the Company with Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that the LC Issuer is entitled to benefits under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest payable by the Company or certifying that the interest is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in the United States. Similarly, with respect to each LC Subsidiary organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, the LC Issuer, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Company or such LC Subsidiary (but only so long as the LC Issuer remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide the Company or such LC Subsidiary with appropriate documentation certifying applicable exemptions from withholding tax imposed by any jurisdiction on payments of interest payable by such LC Subsidiary. If the forms provided by the LC Issuer at the time the LC Issuer first becomes a party to this Agreement indicate a withholding tax (including, without limitation, United States interest withholding) tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded from “Taxes” unless and until the LC Issuer provides the appropriate forms certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate only shall be considered excluded from Taxes for periods governed by such forms; provided however, that, if at the date of any assignment pursuant to Section 8.07 hereof, the LC Issuer assignor was entitled to payments under subsection (a) of this Section 3.02 in respect of withholding tax with respect to interest paid at such date, then, to such extent, the term Taxes shall include (in addition to withholding taxes that may be imposed in the future or other amounts otherwise includible in Taxes) withholding tax, if any, applicable with respect to the assignee on such date.

(e) For any period with respect to which the LC Issuer has failed to provide the Company or any LC Subsidiary with the appropriate form described in Section 3.02(d) hereof (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first two sentences of subsection (d) above), the LC Issuer shall not be entitled to indemnification, and for purposes of clarification, neither the Company nor any LC Subsidiary shall be required to increase any amounts payable to the LC Issuer under Sections 3.02(a) or 3.02(c) hereof with respect to Taxes or Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction (including, without limitation, the United States); provided, however, that should the LC Issuer become subject to Taxes or Other Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Company shall take such steps as the LC Issuer shall reasonably request to assist the LC Issuer to recover such Taxes or Other Taxes.

(f) Without affecting its rights under this Section 3.02 or any provision of this Agreement, the LC Issuer agrees that if any Taxes or Other Taxes are imposed and required by law to be paid or to be withheld from any amount payable to the LC Issuer or its Applicable Issuing Office with respect to which the Company or any LC Subsidiary

 

26


would be obligated pursuant to this Section 3.02 to increase any amounts payable to the LC Issuer or to pay any such Taxes or Other Taxes, the LC Issuer shall use reasonable efforts to select an alternative Applicable Issuing Office which would not result in the imposition of such Taxes or Other Taxes; provided, however, that no LC Issuer shall be obligated to select an alternative Applicable Issuing Office if the LC Issuer determines that as a result of such selection the LC Issuer would be in violation of an applicable law, regulation, or treaty, or would incur unreasonable additional costs or expenses.

(g) In the event that an additional payment is made under this Section 3.02 for the account of the LC Issuer and the LC Issuer, in its sole discretion, determines that it has finally and irrevocably received or been granted a credit against or release or remission for, or repayment of, any tax paid or payable by it in respect of or calculated with reference to the deduction or withholding giving rise to such payment, the LC Issuer shall, to the extent that it determines that it can do so without prejudice to the retention of the amount of such credit, relief, remission or repayment, pay to the Company or LC Subsidiary, as the case may be, such amount as the LC Issuer shall, in its sole discretion, have determined to be attributable to such deduction or withholding and which will leave the LC Issuer (after such payment) in no worse position than it would have been in if the Company or LC Subsidiary had not been required to make such deduction or withholding. Nothing herein contained shall interfere with the right of the LC Issuer to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige the LC Issuer to claim any tax credit or to disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or require the LC Issuer to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled.

(h) The LC Issuer agrees with the Company that it will take all reasonable actions by all usual means (i) to secure and maintain the benefit of all benefits available to it under the provisions of any applicable double tax treaty concluded by the United States of America to which it may be entitled by reason of the location of the LC Issuer’s Applicable Issuing Office or place of incorporation or its status as an enterprise of any jurisdiction having any such applicable double tax treaty, if such benefit would reduce the amount payable by the Company or any LC Subsidiary in accordance with this Section 3.02 and (ii) otherwise to cooperate with the Company to minimize the amount payable by the Company or any LC Subsidiary pursuant to this Section 3.02; provided, however, that the LC Issuer shall not be obliged to disclose to the Company or any LC Subsidiary any information regarding its tax affairs or tax computations nor to reorder its tax affairs or tax planning pursuant hereto.

(i) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Company or any LC Subsidiary hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Company and the LC Subsidiaries contained in this Section 3.02 shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations.

For the purposes of this subsection (d), “Full Term Participation” means a participation by the LC Issuer to another Person whereby such other Person has purchased (pursuant to a participation agreement) all or a portion of the LC Issuer’s commitment with respect to the Facility Amount from the effective date of such participation agreement to the Termination Date.

SECTION 8.09 Independence of Provisions. All agreements and covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect such that if a particular action or condition is prohibited by the terms of any such agreement or covenant, the fact that such action or condition would be permitted within the limitations of another agreement or covenant shall not be construed as allowing such action to be taken or condition to exist.

Exhibit A-1 to the

Letter of Credit Agreement

[FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE ACCOUNT PARTIES]

1. The California Subsidiary is authorized to exercise all its powers, rights and privileges and is in good legal standing under the laws of the State of California, and each of the Company and the Delaware Subsidiaries is validly existing and in good standing under the Applicable Law of the State of Delaware.

2. Each Loan Party has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform all of its obligations under each of the Letter of Credit Agreements to which it is a party, and the execution and delivery of each of the Letter of Credit Agreements by each Loan Party which is a party thereto and the consummation by each Loan Party of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly authorized by all requisite action on the part of each Loan Party. Each of the Letter of Credit Agreements has been duly executed and delivered by each Loan Party, which is a party thereto.

3. The execution and delivery by each Loan Party of each of the Letter of Credit Agreements to which it is a party and the performance by each Loan Party of its obligations under each of the Letter of Credit Agreements, each in accordance with its terms, does not (i) conflict with the Constitutive Documents of such Loan Party, (ii) constitute a violation of, or a default under, any Applicable Contracts or (iii) cause the creation of any security interest or lien upon any of the property of such Loan Party pursuant to any Applicable Contracts to which it is a party. I call to your attention that certain of the Applicable Contracts are governed by laws other than those as to which I express my opinion. I express no opinion as to the effect of such other laws on the opinions herein stated.

4. Neither the execution, delivery nor performance by any Loan Party of the Letter of Credit Agreements to which it is a party will contravene any provision of any Applicable Law.

5. No Governmental Approval, which has not been obtained or taken and is not in full force and effect, is required to authorize, or is required in connection with, the execution, delivery or performance of any of the Letter of Credit Agreements by any Loan Party.

6. There is no action, suit or proceeding pending or, to my knowledge, overtly threatened against any Loan Party in or before any court, Governmental Authority or arbitrator, which has a reasonable probability (taking into account the exhaustion of all appeals and the assertion of all defenses) of having a Material Adverse Effect or which purports to affect the legality, validity or enforceability of any Loan Document.


Exhibit A-2 to the

Letter of Credit Agreement

[FORM OF CORPORATE OPINION OF SPECIAL NEW YORK COUNSEL TO THE

ACCOUNT PARTIES]

1. Each of the Letter of Credit Agreements constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of each Loan Party, enforceable against such Loan Party in accordance with its terms.

2. The execution, delivery or performance by each Loan Party of the Letter of Credit Agreements will not contravene any provision of any Applicable Law of the State of New York or any Applicable Law of the United States of America.

3. No Governmental Approval, which has not been obtained or made, is required to be obtained or made by a Loan Party in connection with the execution or delivery of any of the Letter of Credit Agreements by any Loan Party or the enforceability of the Letter of Credit Agreements against any Loan Party.

4. None of the Loan Parties is and, solely after giving effect to the transactions contemplated by the Letter of Credit Agreements, will be an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.
