debt or other instrument treated as equity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) of one or more foreign subsidiaries of the Borrower that are CFCs (a “CFC Holdco”) and (j) any subsidiary of the Target that is a party to any agreement related to the Target’s headquarters term loan or the Kansas TIF bonds to the extent guaranteeing the Credit Facilities would result in a breach of any such agreements (collectively, the “Guarantors;” the Borrower and the Guarantors, collectively, the “Credit Parties”).  In addition, the Loan Documents (as hereafter defined) will include customary exclusions for Guarantors that are not “eligible contract participants” (as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. section 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute) from guaranteeing obligations of any Credit Party that relate to the Hedging Arrangements.

Subject to limitations on investments set forth in the Loan Documents, the Borrower will be permitted to designate any existing or subsequently acquired or organized subsidiary of the Borrower (other than any subsidiary that owns a race track facility) as an “unrestricted subsidiary” (any subsidiary so designated, an “Unrestricted Subsidiary”) (with any subsidiary of an Unrestricted Subsidiary constituting an Unrestricted Subsidiary); provided that no event of default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result upon any such designation.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Unrestricted Subsidiaries (and the sale of assets thereof) will not be subject to the mandatory prepayment, representation and warranty, affirmative or negative covenant or event of default provisions of the Loan Documents and the cash held by, and results of operations, indebtedness and interest expense of, Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be taken into account for purposes of determining any financial ratio or covenant contained in the Loan Documents. “Restricted Subsidiary” shall mean any existing or future direct or indirect subsidiary of the Borrower other than any Unrestricted Subsidiary.
A-2

The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall constitute an investment by the Borrower or its applicable Restricted Subsidiary at the date of designation in an amount equal to the portion of the fair market value (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) of the assets of such Restricted Subsidiary attributable to the Borrower’s or its applicable Restricted Subsidiary’s equity interest therein as reasonably estimated by the Borrower (and such designation shall only be permitted to the extent such investment is otherwise permitted). The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary may only be made if no event of default exists or would result therefrom, and shall constitute the incurrence or making, as applicable, at the time of designation of any then-existing investment, indebtedness or lien of such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable.

The full amount of the Term Loan Facility shall be available to be drawn by the Borrower in U.S. dollars in a single drawing on the Closing Date.

Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan Facility that are repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed.

Final Maturity and Amortization of
Term Loan Facility

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, the Loan Documents shall provide the right for individual Lenders under the Term Loan Facility to agree to extend the maturity date of the outstanding Term Loans upon the request of the Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender pursuant to customary procedures to be agreed (any such loans that have been so extended, the “Extended Term Loans”); it being understood that each Lender under the applicable tranche or tranches that are being extended shall have the opportunity to participate in such extension on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender in such tranche or tranches; provided, that it is understood that no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension.

The Administrative Agent and Borrower shall be permitted to effect such amendments to the Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate to give effect to the immediately preceding paragraph, including conforming amendments (which may be in the form of an amendment and restatement), without the consent of any Lender other than the Lenders agreeing to extend such Extended Term Loans.
A-4

Revolving Credit Facility
A senior secured first lien revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Term Loan Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $150.0 million (with the loans thereunder referred to herein as the “Revolving Credit Loans” and, together with the Term Loans, the “Loans”).  Amounts repaid under the Revolving Credit Facility may be reborrowed, subject to the limitations set forth herein.

The Revolving Credit Facility will be available in U.S. dollars.

Maturity of Revolving Credit Facility
The Revolving Credit Facility shall be available to the Borrower on a revolving basis during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date (the “Revolving Credit Termination Date”); provided that the Loan Documents shall provide the right for individual Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility to agree to extend the maturity date of the outstanding commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility upon the request of the Borrower and without the consent of any other Lender pursuant to customary procedures to be agreed; provided, that no existing Lender will have any obligation to commit to any such extension.  The Revolving Credit Facility will be payable at maturity (no required amortization).

Incremental Credit Facilities
The Borrower shall have the right to increase the size of the Term Loan Facility and/or incur additional tranches of term loans (“Incremental Term Loans”) and/or increase the size of the Revolving Credit Facility (“Incremental Revolving Commitments” and, together with Incremental Term Loans, each an “Incremental Facility”), at any time after the Closing Date from willing Lenders and/or eligible assignees up to (A) an aggregate total principal amount not to exceed the sum of (x) the greater of $350 million and 100% of Consolidated EBITDA calculated on a pro forma basis, for the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period of the Borrower for which financial statements are internally available, plus (y) any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans, any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Equivalent Debt and voluntary prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility or loans under any Incremental Revolving Commitments (to the extent accompanied by permanent commitment reductions thereto) (including debt buybacks of any of the foregoing, limited to the actual cash amount paid by the Borrower in connection with such buyback) (clause (x) and (y), collectively, the “Fixed Incremental Amount”) plus (B) an aggregate total principal amount not to exceed (i) in the case of any Incremental Facility or Incremental Equivalent Debt to be secured equally and ratably with the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facility, the amount that would result in a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined below), calculated on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to any acquisition or other transaction consummated in connection therewith, not exceeding the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio on the Closing Date (the “Closing Date First Lien Net Leverage Ratio”), (ii) in the case of any Incremental Facility or Incremental Equivalent Term Debt to be secured on
A-5


a junior basis to the Senior Credit Facilities, the amount that would result in the Secured Net Leverage Ratio (as defined below), calculated on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to any acquisition or other transaction consummated in connection therewith, not exceeding 5.95:1.0 and (iii) in the case of any unsecured Incremental Facilities or unsecured Incremental Equivalent Term Debt, the amount that would result in the Total Net Leverage Ratio (as defined below), calculated on a pro forma basis, after giving effect to any acquisition or other transaction consummated in connection therewith, not exceeding 5.95:1.0 (it being understood that any Incremental Revolving Facility being established shall be treated as being fully drawn at such time for purposes of calculating any leverage ratio pursuant to this clause (B)) (clause (B), the “Ratio Incremental Amount”; and, together with the Fixed Incremental Amount, the “Available Incremental Facility Amount”); provided, further, that any Incremental Facility shall be subject to the following:


(i)
no event of default has occurred and is continuing, or would immediately occur after giving effect to, such Incremental Facilities (except in the case of Incremental Term Loans to be used to provide funding for any permitted acquisition or permitted investment or permitted restricted payment (subject to an irrevocable declaration) or any redemption or repayment of any indebtedness whose consummation is not conditioned on the availability of, or on obtaining, third party financing (a “Limited Condition Transaction”), in each case, the standard will be no payment or bankruptcy event of default shall exist and be continuing at the time the applicable transaction is consummated);


(ii)
except in the case of a bridge loan the terms of which provide for an automatic extension of the maturity date thereof to a date that is not earlier than the latest maturity date of the initial Term Loan Facility, no Incremental Term Loans shall mature prior to the Term Loans or have a weighted average life that is shorter than the weighted average life of the Term Loans;
A-6


(iii)
except with respect to (A) an aggregate amount of Incremental Facilities not greater than the Fixed Incremental Amount, (B), any amount of Incremental Facilities used to finance an acquisition or other permitted investment and (C) any amount of any Incremental Facility that matures more than one year after the Term Loan Facility (clauses (A), (B) and (C), collectively, the “MFN Carveout”), the initial yield (to be defined to include all applicable margin, interest rate floors, upfront fees, original issue discount or similar yield-related discounts, deductions or payments, but excluding any customary arrangement or similar fees in connection therewith that are not paid to all of the lenders providing the Incremental Term Loans) of any broadly syndicated pari passu US dollar denominated Incremental Term Loans incurred prior to the date that is 6 months after the Closing Date shall be no greater than 0.75% per annum higher than the corresponding all-in yield applicable to the existing Term Loan Facility (or, if such initial yield on the Incremental Term Loans exceeds the all-in yield on the existing Term Loan Facility by more than 0.75%, then the interest rate margin for the existing Term Loan Facility shall automatically be increased to equal such initial yield on the Incremental Term Loans minus 0.75%);


(iv)
any such Incremental Term Facility may provide for the ability to participate (i) on a pro rata basis or non-pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans and (ii) on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis in any mandatory prepayments of the initial Term Loans;


(v)
the terms of the Incremental Term Loans (other than with respect to pricing, margin, maturity and/or fees or as otherwise contemplated by any of clauses above) shall be otherwise reasonably satisfactory in all respects to the Administrative Agent to the extent that such terms, except to the extent set forth above, are not substantially similar to the Term Loan Facility; provided that any terms (x) that are added in the Senior Credit Facilities for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to an amendment thereto (with no consent of the Lenders being required) or (y) that are only applicable to periods after the latest final maturity date of the Senior Credit Facilities existing at the time of the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans, in each case, shall be deemed reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;
A-7



(vi)
any Incremental Revolving Commitment will be documented solely as an increase to the commitments with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, without any change in terms except for such upfront fees as may be agreed between the Lenders providing such Incremental Revolving Commitments and the Borrower; and


(vii)
any such Incremental Term Loans shall be entitled to benefit from the same guarantees as, and be secured on a pari passu or junior basis by the same Collateral (as defined below) securing the Senior Credit Facilities (subject, in the case of any Incremental Facility secured on a junior basis, to customary intercreditor arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent).

None of the existing Lenders under the Senior Credit Facilities will be required to provide any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Commitments, and any decision whether or not to do so by any such Lender shall be made at the sole discretion of such Lender.

If the Borrower incurs indebtedness under the Fixed Incremental Amount (and any fixed debt basket) on the same date that it incurs indebtedness under the Ratio Incremental Amount (or any other ratio debt incurrence basket), then the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Secured Net Leverage Ratio or the Total Net Leverage Ratio (or other applicable ratio), as applicable, with respect to the amounts incurred under the Ratio Incremental Amount (or other ratio debt incurrence basket) will be calculated without regard to any incurrence under the Fixed Incremental Amount (and any fixed debt basket). For the avoidance of doubt, each Incremental Facility shall be deemed incurred first under Ratio Incremental Amount with the balance incurred under any remaining Fixed Incremental Amount.
A-8


The Borrower may, in lieu of adding an Incremental Facility, utilize any part of the Available Incremental Facility Amount at any time by issuing or incurring Incremental Equivalent Debt (as defined below), subject to customary terms and conditions (such as customary intercreditor documentation, if applicable).

Incremental Equivalent Debt” means indebtedness in an amount not to exceed the then Available Incremental Facility Amount consisting of the issuance of senior secured (on a pari passu basis), junior lien, unsecured or subordinated notes or loans (including “mezzanine” debt and bridge loans), in each case, issued in a public offering, Rule 144A transaction or other private placement; provided that such Incremental Equivalent Debt shall be subject to (a) clauses (i), (ii), and (vii) of the first paragraph in this “Incremental Credit Facilities” section, (b) if the Incremental Equivalent Debt is a notes issuance, no mandatory prepayment or redemption provisions other than customary prepayments for notes offerings required as a result of a “change of control” or asset sales or other prepayment events consistent with market practice at the time of issuance and (c) if such Incremental Equivalent Debt consists of loans, the terms thereof, to the extent not substantially similar to the terms of the Term Loans, being, taken as a whole, not materially more restrictive than the terms of the Senior Credit Facilities as determined in good faith by the Borrower (but excluding any terms (x) that are added in the Senior Credit Facilities for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to an amendment thereto (with no consent of the Lenders being required), (y) that are only applicable to periods after the latest final maturity date of the Senior Credit Facilities existing at the time of the incurrence of such Incremental Equivalent Debt or (z) reflect market terms and conditions (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) at the time of incurrence or issuance).
A-9


Limited Condition Transactions:
For purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of the Loan Documents which requires the calculation of any financial ratio (other than (x) determining actual (versus pro forma) compliance with the Financial Covenant tested at the end of each applicable quarter or (y) in connection with a borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility), (ii) determining compliance with representations, warranties, or the occurrence and continuation of a default or event of default or (iii) testing availability under baskets set forth in the Loan Documents, in each case, in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction (such election to be set forth in a writing that is delivered to the First Lien Administrative Agent), an “LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date a letter of intent or the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into or the date on which the notice of redemption is delivered or the time of the declaration of such restricted payment or the time delivery of notice with respect to any debt repayment or redemption (the “LCA Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent test period ending prior to the LCA Test Date for which financial statements have been delivered (or are required to be delivered) to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with.
 
For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket (including due to fluctuations of the target of any Limited Condition Transaction) at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios or baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations (but, for the avoidance of doubt, any subsequent improvement in the applicable ratio or test may be utilized).

Refinancing Facilities
The Loan Documents will permit the Borrower to refinance loans under the Term Loan Facility (or any Incremental Term Loans) or commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility (or any Incremental Revolving Commitments) from time to time, in whole or part, with one or more new term facilities (each, a “Refinancing Term Facility”) or new revolving credit facilities (each, a “Refinancing Revolving Facility”; the Refinancing Term Facilities and the Refinancing Revolving Facilities are collectively referred to as “Refinancing Facilities”), respectively, incurred by the Borrower under the Loan


A-10



Documents with the consent of the Borrower and the institutions providing such Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Revolving Facility or with one or more series of senior unsecured notes or loans incurred by the Borrower or senior secured notes or loans incurred by the Borrower that will be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis or by senior secured notes or loans incurred by the Borrower that will be secured on a junior basis with the Senior Secured Facilities, senior subordinated notes or loans, or subordinated notes or loans (any such notes or loans, “Refinancing Notes”), subject solely to the following terms and conditions: (i) any Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes shall not be in a principal amount that exceeds the principal amount of loans and commitments so refinanced, plus fees, expenses, commissions, underwriting discounts and premiums payable in connection therewith, (ii) to the extent such Refinancing Notes are secured by Collateral, customary and reasonably satisfactory intercreditor agreements are entered into, (iii) subject to clause (xi) below, any Refinancing Term Facility or Refinancing Notes do not mature prior to the maturity date of, or have a shorter weighted average life than, loans under the Term Loan Facility or the Incremental Term Facility, as applicable, being refinanced, (iv) any Refinancing Revolving Facility does not mature prior to the maturity date of the revolving commitments being refinanced, (v) none of the Borrower or its subsidiaries is a guarantor with respect to any Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes unless such subsidiary is a Guarantor which shall have previously or substantially concurrently guaranteed the Senior Credit Facilities that remain outstanding after such refinancing, (vi) any Refinancing Facilities or Refinancing Notes are not secured by any assets not previously securing the Senior Credit Facilities unless such assets substantially concurrently secure the Senior Credit Facilities that remain outstanding after such refinancing, (vii) the terms and conditions of such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes (excluding pricing and optional prepayment or redemption terms or covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the latest maturity date of the loans and commitments) reflect terms and conditions at the time of incurrence or issuance not materially more favorable to the lenders providing such Refinancing Term Facility, Refinancing Revolving Facility or Refinancing Notes, as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower, than those applicable to the facility being so refinanced (except to the extent (x) such terms are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent or added in the Senior Credit Facilities for the benefit of the Lenders pursuant to an amendment thereto (with no consent of the Lenders being required) or (y) for terms applicable only to periods after the latest final maturity date of the Senior Credit Facilities existing at the time of the incurrence of such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes or (z) for terms that reflect market terms and conditions (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) at the time of incurrence or issuance); (viii) in the case of any Refinancing Revolving Facility, the Loan Documents shall include certain provisions to govern the pro rata payment, borrowing, participation and
A-11


commitment reduction of the Revolving Credit Facility and any such Refinancing Revolving Facility, (ix) any Refinancing Term Facility may provide for the ability to participate (i) on a pro rata basis or non-pro rata basis in any voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan Facility and (ii) on a pro rata basis or less than pro rata basis in any mandatory prepayments of the Term Loan Facility; (x) if the indebtedness being refinanced was (A) contractually subordinated to the Senior Credit Facilities in right of payment, such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes shall be contractually subordinated to the Senior Credit Facilities on the same basis, (B) contractually subordinated to the Senior Credit Facilities in right of security, such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes shall be contractually subordinated in right of security to the Senior Credit Facilities on the same basis or be unsecured or (C) unsecured, such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes shall be unsecured and (xi) if any such Refinancing Facility or Refinancing Notes is not pari passu in right of payment to and security with the Senior Credit Facilities, it does not (1) mature prior to the date that is 91 days after the maturity date of the Senior Credit Facilities (or, if later, any later maturity date for any Senior Credit Facility then in effect) or have a weighted average life less than the weighted average life of the Senior Credit Facilities (or any later maturing Senior Credit Facility then in effect) plus 91 days and (2) have mandatory prepayment, redemption or offer to purchase events more onerous to the Borrower (as reasonably determined in good faith by the Borrower) than those set forth in the Senior Credit Facilities (and shall otherwise be subject to the terms of the Senior Credit Facilities).

Letters of Credit
A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not in excess of $25 million shall be available for the issuance of letters of credit (the “Letters of Credit”) by each of the Arrangers (or an affiliate thereof) and other Lenders designated from time to time by the Borrower (with such Lender’s consent), with such sublimit to be divided among the Arrangers (and their affiliates) based on the amount of their respective commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility on the Closing Date (in such capacity, each, an “Issuing Lender”), which Letters of Credit shall be risk participated to all Lenders with commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility on a pro rata basis, to support obligations of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.  The amount available to be drawn under any outstanding Letters of Credit will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.  No Letter of Credit shall have an expiration date after the earlier of (i) one year after the date of issuance, unless otherwise agreed by the Issuing Lender and (ii) five business days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for the automatic extension or renewal thereof for additional periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the date referred to in clause (ii) above, except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender).  In no event shall GS Bank be required to issue any letters of credit other than standby letters of credit.  The issuance of all letters of credit shall be subject to the customary policies and procedures of the relevant Issuing Lender.
A-12


Drawings under any Letter of Credit shall be reimbursed by the Borrower (whether with the Borrower’s own funds or with the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans) on the immediately succeeding business day after the Borrower receives notice thereof.  To the extent that the Borrower does not so reimburse the Issuing Lender, the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Lender on a pro rata basis based on their respective Revolving Credit Facility commitments.

Swing Line Loans
A portion of the Revolving Credit Facility not in excess of $50 million shall be available on same-day notice for swing line loans (the “Swing Line Loans”) from the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Swing Line Lender”).  Except as otherwise provided herein, any such Swing Line Loans will reduce availability under the Revolving Credit Facility on a dollar-for-dollar basis.  Each Lender under the Revolving Credit Facility shall acquire an irrevocable and unconditional pro rata participation in each Swing Line Loan.

Use of Proceeds
The proceeds of the Term Loans will be used directly or indirectly to finance, in part, the Transactions, and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing.

The proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans will be used (i) on the Closing Date, to finance a portion of the Transactions, subject to cap of $25 million, plus any amounts required to fund original issue discount/or upfront fees in connection with the exercise of the “Flex Provisions” under the Fee Letter plus additional amounts for ordinary course working capital needs and (ii) after the Closing Date for the working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its subsidiaries (including permitted acquisitions, capital expenditures and permitted distributions). It is understood and agreed that Letters of Credit may be issued on the Closing to replace or provide credit support for any existing letters of credit of the Borrower and its subsidiaries and the Acquired Business (including by “grandfathering” such existing letters of credit into the Revolving Credit Facility).
A-13

The proceeds of any Incremental Facility will be used by the Borrower for general corporate purposes of Borrower and its subsidiaries (including, without limitation, permitted acquisitions, capital expenditures and permitted distributions) or otherwise as set forth in the definitive documents with respect thereto.

III.          Certain Payment Provisions

Fees and Interest Rates
As set forth on Annex A-I hereto.

Optional Prepayments and
Commitment Reductions
Optional prepayments of borrowings under the Senior Credit Facilities and optional reductions of the unutilized portion of the commitments under the Senior Credit Facilities will be permitted at any time, in minimum principal amounts of $1 million, without premium or penalty (subject to (i) reimbursement of the Lenders’ redeployment costs in the case of a prepayment of LIBO Rate Loans other than on the last day of the relevant interest period and (ii) in the case of the Term Loans, payments of an amount provided below under the caption “Call Protection on Term Loans”). Voluntary prepayments of the Term Loan Facility shall be applied to remaining scheduled amortization payments as directed by the Borrower.

Mandatory Prepayments and
Commitment Reductions
The following amounts will be applied to prepay the Term Loans (subject to basket amounts, thresholds, carveouts and exceptions, in each case, to be mutually agreed and consistent with the Documentation Principles):


1)
100% of the net cash proceeds of any incurrence of indebtedness after the Closing Date (other than indebtedness permitted under the Loan Documents (other than indebtedness incurred to refinance all or part of the Term Loan Facility)) by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;
A-14


2)
100% (with step-downs to 50% and 0% based upon the achievement of a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (calculated at the time of the receipt of the net cash proceeds from an asset sale or disposition or at any time during the applicable reinvestment period, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such asset sale or disposition and the use of proceeds therefrom) equal to or less than 0.50x and 1.00x below the Closing Date First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (any such net cash proceeds pursuant to in this clause (2) not so applied as a mandatory prepayment, the “Retained Asset Sale Proceeds”) respectively) of the net cash proceeds in excess of $25 million for each such individual asset sale or disposition (with only the amount in excess of such limit required to be used to prepay the Term Loans) of any non-ordinary course sale or other disposition of assets by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (excluding sales of inventory in the ordinary course and including as a result of casualty or condemnation) (subject to customary exceptions to be agreed, including the right to apply such proceeds to repay any debt secured thereby or, in the case of a sale by a non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary, any other indebtedness of the subsidiary selling or disposing of such assets, and subject to customary limitations if transferring such proceeds would be prohibited by law or debt agreements of a non-Guarantor Restricted Subsidiary or would cause materially adverse consequences in connection with repatriation) and subject to the right to reinvest such proceeds within 12 months of receipt (or, if the Borrower or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary has entered into a binding commitment with respect to such reinvestment within such 12 month period, within 18 months of receipt) in assets used or useful in a permitted business (including pursuant to any permitted acquisition) with an ability to apply a pro rata portion of such proceeds to prepay pari passu secured indebtedness (and, in the case of a prepayment of revolving indebtedness, to permanently reduce commitments in respect thereof); and


3)
50% of “excess cash flow” of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (to be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles and to be net the amount of internally generated funds expended during the applicable year and, at the option of the Borrower, made after the year-end and prior to the payment date in respect of permitted restricted payments, capital expenditures, acquisitions and certain other investments
A-15

(or committed during such period to be used for such purposes within the succeeding twelve month period, in each case subject to reversal of such deduction if any such committed amount is not actually expended within such twelve-month period)  and, in any event, giving credit for voluntary prepayments to the Term Loan Facility and the Revolving Credit Facility (other than any such voluntary prepayments funded with the proceeds of long-term debt (other than revolving debt)), to the extent such prepayments of the Revolving Credit Facility are accompanied by a permanent and concurrent commitment reduction thereunder, and amounts used to repay borrowings of Revolving Loans made to account for any additional original issue discount or upfront facility fees that are implemented pursuant to the flex provisions of the Fee Letter and to any other pari passu secured debt (and, at the option of the Borrower, to the extent the amount of such prepayments exceeds the amount of prepayments required to be made from excess cash flow for such year, when taken together with other payments required for such year, then such excess amounts may applied to any subsequent fiscal year) for each fiscal year of the Borrower (commencing with the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020), with step-downs to 25% and 0% of “excess cash flow” based on achieving First Lien Leverage Ratio (as calculated at the time of the respective payment and recalculated to give pro forma effect to any such prepayment) as of the last day of the applicable year that are 0.50x and 1.00x, respectively, less than the Closing Date First Lien Leverage Ratio; provided that prepayments shall only be required under this clause if the applicable percentage of excess cash flow is greater than $15 million (in which case only the excess portion thereof, shall be so applied).

Mandatory prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied to each class of Term Loans then outstanding on a pro rata basis and to scheduled amortization thereunder as directed by the Borrower.

Any Lender under the Term Loan Facility may elect not to accept any mandatory prepayment made pursuant to paragraph (1) (except in the case of any refinancing facilities or notes), (2) or (3) above (such declined payment, the “Declined Proceeds”).  Any such Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrower and will increase the Builder Basket (as defined below).

The Revolving Credit Loans will be prepaid and the Letters of Credit will be cash collateralized to the extent such extensions of credit at any time exceed the aggregate commitments in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Loan Documents will provide that, in the event that any permitted term indebtedness or notes that (in each case) is permitted to be (and is) secured by liens on the Collateral ranking on an equal priority basis (but without regard to the control of remedies) with the Lenders’ liens on the Collateral (as defined below) may share no more than ratably in any prepayments required by the foregoing provisions of clauses 1 through 3 (but only to the extent required by the terms of such other permitted term indebtedness or notes).

Prepayments in respect of clauses 1 through 3 above to the extent attributable to any foreign Restricted Subsidiaries will be limited under the Loan Documents in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles to the extent such prepayments (including the repatriation of cash in connection therewith) would (a) be prohibited, delayed or restricted by applicable law, rule or regulation; provided that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall take all commercially reasonable actions available under local law to permit such repatriation or to remove such prohibitions, as applicable, (b) result in material adverse tax consequences (as reasonably determined by the Borrower in consultation with the Administrative Agent); provided that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall take all commercially reasonable efforts to eliminate or reduce such material adverse tax consequences to enable such repatriation to be made or (c) be prohibited under material organizational document restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership) and restrictions in other material agreements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any prepayments actually made shall be net of any costs, expenses or taxes incurred or payable by the Loan Parties or any of their subsidiaries, affiliates or direct or indirect equity owners, and the Loan Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries shall be permitted to make, directly or indirectly, a dividend or distribution to its affiliates or a direct payment in an amount sufficient to cover such tax liability, costs or expenses.

Call Protection on Term Loans
The Borrower shall pay a “prepayment premium” in connection with any Repricing Event (as defined below) with respect to all or any portion of the Term Loans that occurs on or before the date occurring six months after the Closing Date (the “Soft Call Date”), in an amount equal to 1.0% of the principal amount of the Term Loans subject to such Repricing Event.  The term “Repricing Event” shall mean (i) any prepayment or repayment
A-17

of Term Loans with the proceeds of, or any conversion of such Term Loans into, any new or replacement tranche of broadly syndicated pari passu secured term loans bearing interest at an “effective” interest rate less than the “effective” interest rate applicable to such Term Loans (as such comparative rates are determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with the Borrower), and (ii) any amendment to the Term Loan Facility whose primary purpose is to directly or indirectly reduce the “effective” interest rate applicable to the Term Loans under the Term Loan Facility (in each case, with original issue discount and upfront fees, which shall be deemed to constitute like amounts of original issue discount, being equated to interest margins in a manner consistent with generally accepted financial practice based on an assumed four-year life to maturity), including any mandatory assignment in connection therewith with respect to each Lender that refuses to consent to such amendment.  Notwithstanding anything in this paragraph to the contrary, in no event will any prepayment premium be payable pursuant to this paragraph in connection with the occurrence of a “change of control”, a Transformative Acquisition (as defined below) or an initial public offering.

The term “Transformative Acquisition” shall mean any acquisition by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary that is either (a) not permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition or (b) if permitted by the terms of the Loan Documents immediately prior to the consummation of such acquisition, would not provide the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries with adequate flexibility under the Loan Documents for the continuation and/or expansion of their combined operations following such consummation, as reasonably determined by the Borrower acting in good faith.

After the Soft Call Date, the Term Loan Facility may be prepaid in whole or in part at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs).

As used herein:

Adjusted EBITDA” shall be defined in a manner consistent with the Documentation Principles; provided the definition of Adjusted EBITDA shall include an add-back (either in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA or the definition of consolidated net income) for the net income of any entity that is not wholly-owned up to the  amount of cash or cash equivalents (x) actually distributed by such entity to a Loan Party or a wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary or (y) that could have been distributed as a dividend or other distribution or return on investment by such entity to a Loan Party or wholly-owned Restricted Subsidiary.
A-34

Builder Basket” shall mean, as of any date of determination, a cumulative amount equal to (a) the sum of (without duplication) (i) the greater of (A) $50 million or (B) the equivalent percentage of Adjusted EBITDA for the most recently ended four quarter period for which financial statements have been delivered (or, at the option of the Borrower, the Adjusted EBITDA for the most recently ended period for which financial statements are internally available), plus (ii) at the Borrower option, prior to the launch of general syndication, either (x) an amount not less than zero equal to the percentage of excess cash flow described above under “Mandatory Prepayments – Excess Cash Flow” equal to the percentage thereof not required to be applied as an excess cash flow prepayment of the Term Loans for the applicable year or (y) the CNI Growth Amount (to be defined as 50% of consolidated net income for the each fiscal quarter of the Borrower commencing with the first full fiscal quarter after the Closing Date), plus (iii) qualified capital contributions to or the proceeds received from public or private equity issuances of the Borrower or any parent thereof after the Closing Date, plus (iv) returns on investments made using the Builder Basket received by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary, plus (v) any Declined Proceeds and any Retained Asset Sale Proceeds, plus (vi) the amount of any investment made by the Borrower and/or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in reliance on the Builder Basket in any Unrestricted Subsidiary that has been re-designated as a Restricted Subsidiary or that has been merged or consolidated into a Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the fair market value of the assets of any Unrestricted Subsidiary (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) that have been transferred to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the amount of cash dividends made by an Unrestricted Subsidiary to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (to the extent not included in consolidated net income) or the proceeds from the disposition of any Unrestricted Subsidiary received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, plus (vii) the proceeds initially received by the Borrower from debt and disqualified stock issuances that have been issued after the Closing Date and which have been exchanged or converted into qualified equity of the Borrower (or any parent thereof).

First Lien Net Leverage Ratio” will be defined as the ratio of (i) (A) consolidated debt for borrowed money, purchase money indebtedness, capital leases, debt evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures, indentures, credit agreements and similar instruments, unreimbursed amounts owing in respect of letter of credit and similar facilities of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries to the extent such amounts have not been reimbursed in cash to the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (“Consolidated Total Debt”) that are secured (other than if contractually junior to the liens of the Administrative Agent) net of (B) unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and cash of the Borrowers and Restricted Subsidiaries restricted in favor of the Lenders (collectively, “Unrestricted Cash”) to (ii) trailing four fiscal quarter Adjusted EBITDA.

Financial Covenant
Term Loan B Facility: None.

Revolving Credit Facility: limited to (the “Financial Covenant”), commencing, if applicable, with the second full fiscal quarter ending after the Closing Date, a maximum First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (which shall be tested in respect of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis) tested only at the end of any fiscal quarter when the aggregate amount of outstanding Revolving Loans, undrawn Letters of Credit in excess of $25 million in the aggregate and unreimbursed drawings in respect of Letters of Credit (including Swingline Loans but excluding cash collateralized Letters of Credit) exceeds 35% of the commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility (excluding, for the first two full fiscal quarters following the Closing Date, the amount of Revolving Loans used to fund original issue discount or upfront fees required pursuant to the flex provisions of the Fee Letter or to otherwise finance the Transactions). The level for the Financial Covenant shall be set at a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio that is 6.25x (with no step-downs).


A-36

Equity Cure Right:
For purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant, any equity contribution (that is not “disqualified equity”) made to the Borrower after the last day of any fiscal quarter and on or prior to the day that is ten business days after the day on which financial statements are required to be delivered in respect of that fiscal quarter (the “Cure Date”) will, at the request of the Borrower, be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA solely for the purposes of determining compliance with the Financial Covenant at the end of such fiscal quarter and any subsequent period that includes such fiscal quarter (any such equity contribution, a “Cure Amount”); provided (a) the Borrower shall be permitted to request that a Cure Amount be included in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA with respect to any fiscal quarter (i) no more than twice during any consecutive four fiscal quarter period, and (ii) no more than five times in the aggregate during the term of the Senior Credit Facilities, (b) each Cure Amount will be no greater than the amount required to cause the Borrower to be in compliance with the Financial Covenant, (c) all Cure Amounts and the use of proceeds thereof will be disregarded for all other purposes under the Loan Documents (including determining pricing or the availability or amount of any covenant basket, carve-out or compliance on a pro forma basis with the Financial Covenant or any other ratio), and (d) there shall be no pro forma or other reduction of indebtedness (including by way of cash netting) using the proceeds of any Cure Amount in determining the Financial Covenant (or any other leverage ratio) for the applicable fiscal quarter and for any subsequent period that includes such fiscal quarter (except in the case of such subsequent fiscal quarter all or any portion of such Cure Amount is actually used to permanently prepay or otherwise permanently reduce indebtedness).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, upon the receipt of a Cure Amount as provided above, any default or event of default with respect to the Financial Covenant shall be deemed to have been cured and no longer continuing.
 
The Loan Documents will contain a standstill provision prohibiting the exercise of remedies related to any breach of the Financial Covenant during the period in which any Cure Amount may be contributed after delivery of written notice to the Administrative Agent of the Borrower’s intention to cure the Financial Covenant with the proceeds of a Cure Amount, but the Borrower shall not be permitted to borrow (or draw Swing Line Loans or have Letters of Credit issued or amended) during such period absent the consent of the Revolving Lenders; provided that such standstill shall apply solely in respect of the breach (or prospective breach) of the Financial Covenant giving rise thereto, and to the extent the applicable Cure Amount has not been made prior to the applicable Cure Date, such standstill shall end when such Cure Amount may no longer be timely made in respect of such fiscal quarter.

A-37

Events of Default
Limited to the following (to be applicable to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries) (with exceptions, thresholds, materiality, notice and grace provisions and other qualifications to be mutually agreed upon; provided that each threshold shall grow based on the Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries):  nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts after a five business day grace period; inaccuracy of representations and warranties when made in any material respect (subject to a 30-day cure period if such breach is capable of being cured); violation of covenants subject, with respect to affirmative covenants (other than notices of default and maintenance of the Borrower’s existence), to a 30-day cure period and notice from the Administrative Agent; cross-acceleration under indebtedness in excess of $75 million; bankruptcy and judgments and insolvency events with respect to the Borrower or a material Restricted Subsidiary (with a 60-day grace period for involuntary events); judgment in excess of $75 million (after netting insurance and third party indemnities) (subject to a 60-day grace period); ERISA and other pension events; and actual or asserted invalidity or impairment of guarantees, security documents or any other Loan Documents (including the failure of any lien on any material portion of the Collateral to remain valid and perfected with the priority required under the Loan Documents); and a “Change of Control” (to be defined in a manner to be agreed upon, but to include a pre-and post-qualifying IPO provision, with no continuing director prong; it being understood that an IPO shall not require a primary offering or a minimum size to qualify as a qualifying IPO).  The Loan Documents will provide that any breach of the Financial Covenant will not result in a default under the Term Loan Facility unless and until the non-defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility accelerate the amounts due thereunder and terminate the commitments thereunder.

The occurrence of an event of default shall not entitle the Lenders to terminate the commitments in respect of the Senior Credit Facilities prior to the borrowing thereof on the Closing Date. The acceleration of the Senior Credit Facilities shall be permitted at any time after they have been funded only to the extent that an Event of Default is outstanding at such time.
A-38

Amendments and waivers with respect to the Loan Documents will require the approval of Lenders (that are not defaulting Lenders) holding not less than a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans, including participations in Swing Line Loans and Letters of Credit and unused commitments under the Senior Credit Facilities (the “Required Lenders”) (with certain amendments and waivers that effect the rights or duties of one class of Lenders more adversely than any other class of Lenders also requiring class votes), except that (i) the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby (but not the consent of the Required Lenders or of any other majority or required percentage of the Lenders of any facility or tranche, or any other Lenders) shall be required with respect to (a) reductions in the amount or extensions of the final maturity of any Loan or any required amortization payment with respect thereto (other than a waiver of any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment and other than extensions for administrative convenience as agreed by the Administrative Agent), (b) reductions in the rate of interest (other than a waiver of default interest, the “MFN” provision, any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment, or change to a financial ratio (or any component definition thereof), shall not constitute such a reduction) or any fee or other amount payable or extensions of any due date thereof, (c) increases in the amount or extensions of the expiration date of any Lender’s commitment (provided that a waiver of any condition precedent, any default, event of default or mandatory prepayment shall not constitutes such an increase), (d) modifications to the assignment provisions of the Loan Documents that further restrict assignments thereunder and (e) changes to the “waterfall” and certain other provisions and (ii) the consent of 100% of the Lenders shall be required with respect to any amendment that (a) releases of all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees of the Guarantors or of all or substantially all of the Collateral (other than in connection with permitted asset sales or other permitted dispositions) or (b) permits assignments by any Credit Party of its rights or obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, amendments, waivers and consents in respect of the Financial Covenants shall only require the consent of non-defaulting Lenders holding more than 50% of the aggregate loans and commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility.

Any provision of the Loan Documents may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, error, defect or inconsistency.

A-39

The Loan Documents will permit guarantees, collateral security documents and related documents to be, together with the Credit Agreement, amended and waived with the consent of the Administrative Agent at the request of the Borrower without the need for consent by any other Lender if such amendment or waiver is delivered in order to (i) comply with local law or advice of local counsel or (ii) cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to extend a deadline or requirement in connection with compliance with guarantee and security provisions.

Participants shall have the same benefits as the Lenders with respect to yield protection and increased cost provisions, and will be subject to customary limitations on voting rights (as mutually agreed).  Participants’ and assignees’ entitlements to gross up provisions for withholding taxes shall be subject to customary limitations for transactions and facilities of this type. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no participant will be entitled to a gross-up or yield protection payment in an amount greater than the amount, if any, owed to the selling Lender except to the extent such greater amount is attributable to a change in law after the date the participant acquired the applicable participation.

Pledges of Loans in accordance with applicable law shall be permitted without restriction.  Promissory notes shall only be issued under the Senior Credit Facilities upon request.

The Loan Documents shall contain customary provisions for replacing non-consenting Lenders in connection with amendments and waivers requiring the consent of all Lenders or of all Lenders directly affected thereby so long as Lenders holding at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of the Loans, including participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans and unused commitments under the Senior Credit Facilities, shall have consented thereto.
A-41

In addition, the Loan Documents shall provide that the Term Loans may be purchased by the Borrower (x) on a non-pro rata basis through Dutch auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures to be agreed; provided that (i) any such Term Loans acquired by the Borrower shall be retired and cancelled immediately and automatically upon acquisition thereof, (ii) either (a) the Borrower must provide a customary representation and warranty to the effect that it is not in possession of any non-public information with respect to the business of the Borrower or any of their subsidiaries (or their respective securities) at the time of such purchase that has not been disclosed generally to private side lenders that could reasonably be expected to have a material effect upon, or otherwise be material to, a Lender’s decision to assign the Term Loans (or state that it cannot make such representation) or (b) such assignment shall contain customary “Big Boy” representations and (iii) no event of default shall exist or result therefrom and (y) through open market purchases.

Defaulting Lenders
The Loan Documents shall contain customary provisions relating to “defaulting” Lenders consistent with the Documentation Principles, including provisions relating to providing cash collateral to support Swing Line Loans or Letters of Credit, the suspension of voting rights and of rights to receive certain fees, and termination or assignment of commitments or Loans of such Lenders.

Interest and Certain Fees

Interest Rate Options
The Borrower may elect that the Loans or other extensions of credit comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate per annum equal to

(i)          the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; or


(ii)
LIBO Rate plus the Applicable Margin; provided that all Swing Line Loans will be Base Rate Loans.

The Borrower may elect interest periods of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months (or 12 months if available to all applicable Lenders) for LIBO Rate Loans (as defined below).

As used herein:

Applicable Margin” means:


(A)
with respect to the Term Loan Facility, (i) initially, 2.25%, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) initially, 3.25% in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, subject, in each case, to two 25 basis point step-downs based upon achieving a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio that is 0.50x and 1.00x, respectively, inside Closing Date First Lien Net Leverage as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered;


(B)
with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility, (i) initially, 2.25%, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and (ii) initially, 3.25%, in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, subject, in each case, to two 25 basis point step-downs based upon achieving a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio that is 0.50x and 1.00x, respectively, inside Closing Date First Lien Net Leverage as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered.

 “Base Rate” means the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%, (ii) the “U.S. Prime Lending Rate” published by the Wall Street Journal (the “Prime Rate”), (iii) the LIBO Rate for a one month interest period plus 1.00%) (provided that, if the rate described in preceding clause (i) shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero).
A-I-1

LIBO Rate” means the higher of the London Interbank Offered Rate or a comparable or successor rate which rate is approved by the Administrative Agent, as published on the applicable Reuters screen page (or such other commercially available source providing such quotations as may be designated by the Senior Administrative Agent from time to time) at approximately 11:00 a.m., London time, two business days prior to the commencement of such interest period, for deposits in U.S. Dollars (for delivery on the first day of such interest period) with a term equivalent to such interest period (provided that, if the foregoing rate shall be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero).  The Loan Documents shall contain provisions relating to a replacement rate for LIBO Rate reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower.

Interest Payment Dates
With respect to Loans bearing interest based upon (a) the LIBO Rate (“LIBO Rate Loans”), on the last day of each relevant interest period and, in the case of any interest period longer than three months, on each successive date three months after the first day of such interest period and on the applicable maturity date and (b) the Base Rate, on the last business day of each calendar quarter (in arrears) and on the applicable maturity date.  Interest shall also be payable on any Loans upon any voluntary or mandatory repayment thereof.

Unutilized Commitment Fee
The Borrower shall pay a commitment fee calculated at the rate of 0.50% per annum, on the average daily unused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears, subject to step-downs to 0.375% and 0.25%, commencing after delivery of financial statements for the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, based upon achieving a First Lien Net Leverage Ratio that is 0.50x and 1.00x, respectively, inside Closing Date First Lien Net Leverage, as of the last day of the most recent fiscal quarter for which financial statements have been delivered.  For purposes of the commitment fee calculations only, Swing Line Loans shall not be deemed to be a utilization of the Revolving Credit Facility.

Letter of Credit Fees
The Borrower shall pay a commission on all outstanding Letters of Credit at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Revolving Credit Loans made or maintained as LIBO Rate Loans on the available amount of each such Letter of Credit.  Such commission shall be shared ratably among the Lenders participating in the Revolving Credit Facility and shall be payable quarterly in arrears.
A-I-2


In addition to letter of credit commissions, a fronting fee not to exceed 0.125% per annum on the available amount of each Letter of Credit shall be payable quarterly in arrears to the Issuing Lender for its own account.  In addition, customary (as determined by the Issuing Lender) administrative, issuance, amendment, payment and document examination charges shall be payable to the Issuing Lender for its own account.

Default Rate
All overdue principal, interest, fees and other monetary amounts outstanding under the Senior Credit Facilities shall bear interest at 2.00% per annum above the rate otherwise applicable thereto (or, if there is no applicable rate, 2.00% per annum above the Base Rate applicable to Revolving Credit Loans) and shall be payable on demand.

a.          The fair value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, exceeds, on a consolidated basis, their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise;

b.          The present fair saleable value of the property of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability, on a consolidated basis, of their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured;

c.          The Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such liabilities become absolute and matured; and
