Item 1.01                          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 13, 2018, Adtalem Global Education Inc. (“Adtalem”) entered into a  Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (“Agent”), swingline lender and letter of credit issuer; Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Bank of Montreal, Fifth Third Bank and PNC Capital Markets LLC, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners; PNC Bank, National Association, Bank of Montreal and Fifth Third Bank, as co-syndication agents; The Northern Trust Company, as documentation agent; and other lenders party thereto.  The Credit Agreement replaces Adtalem’s prior $400 million Credit Agreement (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), dated March 31, 2015.  Proceeds from borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be used to finance working capital and capital expenditures, to support the issuance of standby letters of credit, to make restricted payments, to make permitted acquisitions, and for other general corporate purposes.
 
The Credit Agreement provides for (a) a five-year multi-currency revolving credit facility in the amount of $300 million (the “Aggregate Revolving Commitment”) with up to $200 million available in currencies other than United States Dollars and up to $100 million available for letters of credit to Adtalem and certain designated subsidiary borrowers (together with Adtalem, collectively,  the “Borrowers”) and (b) a seven-year Term B loan facility in the amount of $300 million.  Subject to certain conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement, Adtalem may elect to increase the Aggregate Revolving Commitment and/or request additional term loans in an aggregate amount up to $250 million.  

Adtalem may select interest rates for borrowings under the Aggregate Revolving Commitment equal to (a) LIBOR or a LIBOR-equivalent rate for eurocurrency rate loans or a base rate, plus (b) an applicable rate based on the consolidated leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of Adtalem and its subsidiaries.   The applicable rate ranges from 1.75% to 2.75% for LIBOR rate loans, and from 0.75% to 1.75% for base rate loans.  Adtalem will incur a commitment fee with respect to the unused portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment at an applicable rate based on the consolidated leverage ratio ranging from 0.35% to 0.45%.  Adtalem may select interest rates applicable to the Term B loans equal to (a) LIBOR or a LIBOR-equivalent rate for eurocurrency rate loans plus 3.00% or (b) a base rate plus 2.00%.
 
The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative, negative and financial covenants, representations, warranties, events of default and remedies upon default including acceleration, and borrowing conditions.  After the end of each of Adtalem’s fiscal years commencing with the fiscal year ending June 30, 2019, Adtalem is required to prepay the Term B loans in amount equal to 50% of consolidated excess cash flow (as defined in the Credit Agreement) for such fiscal year unless the consolidated leverage ratio is less than or equal to 1.75 to 1.00.  Adtalem and certain of its subsidiaries guaranteed the obligations of the Borrowers and have pledged the equity interests of certain of their respective subsidiaries.  Adtalem and certain of its U.S. subsidiaries have granted a security interest in favor of Agent in all of their property (other than real estate and other certain excluded property) to secure the payment and performance of the obligations under the Credit Agreement. Full details of the Credit Agreement are contained in the agreement included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.  Currently, a letter of credit with an original face amount of $68,435,908 and $300 million of term loans are outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
 
There is no material relationship between Adtalem or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates and any of the lenders or the Agent, other than in respect of the Credit Agreement and certain banking relationships all entered into in the ordinary course of business.
 
Item 1.02                          Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.02.

Item 2.03
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

1.8
Additional Alternative Currencies.
 
(a)            Adtalem may from time to time request that Eurocurrency Rate Loans be made and/or Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “LIBOR Quoted Currency” or “Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency”; provided that (i) such requested currency is an Eligible Currency and (ii) such requested currency shall only be a LIBOR Quoted Currency to the extent that there is published LIBOR rate for such currency. In the case of any  such request with respect to the making of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders obligated to make Credit Extensions  in such currency; and in the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer.
 
(b)            Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 p.m., 15 Business Days prior to the date of the desired Credit Extension (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and, in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the L/C Issuer, in its or their sole discretion). In the case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each applicable Lender thereof; and in the case of any such request pertaining to Letters of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the L/C Issuer thereof. Each applicable Lender (in the case of any such request pertaining to Eurocurrency Rate Loans) or the L/C Issuer (in the case of a request pertaining to Letters of Credit) shall notify the  Administrative  Agent,  not  later  than 11:00 a.m., five Business Days after receipt of such request whether or not it consents, in its sole discretion, to the making of Eurocurrency Rate Loans or the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency.
 
(c)            Any failure by an applicable Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by such applicable Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to permit Eurocurrency Rate Loans to be made or Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency.  If the Administrative Agent and all the applicable Lenders consent to making Eurocurrency Rate Loans in such requested currency and the Administrative Agent and such applicable Lenders reasonably determine that a Eurocurrency Rate is available to be used for such requested currency,
35

 
the Administrative Agent shall so notify Adtalem and (i) the Administrative Agent and such applicable Lenders may amend the definition of Eurocurrency Rate for any Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency to the extent necessary to add the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for such currency and (ii) to the extent the definition of Eurocurrency Rate reflects the appropriate interest rate for such currency or has been amended to reflect the appropriate rate for such currency, such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be a LIBOR Quoted Currency or a Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency, as applicable, for purposes of any Borrowings of Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify Adtalem and (A) the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may amend the definition of Eurocurrency Rate for any Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency to the extent necessary to add the applicable Eurocurrency Rate for such currency and (B) to the extent the definition of Eurocurrency Rate reflects the appropriate interest rate for such currency or has been amended to reflect the appropriate rate for such currency, such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be a LIBOR Quoted Currency or a Non-LIBOR Quoted Currency, as applicable, for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances.

Change of Currency.
 
(a)            Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption. If, in relation  to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such  member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Borrowing in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Borrowing, at the end of the then current Interest   Period.
 
(b)            Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.
 
(c)            Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

1.10
Letter of Credit Amounts.
 
Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any Issuer Document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.
36

 
1.11
Limited Condition Acquisition.
 
It is understood and agreed that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Facility are being used to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, and Adtalem has obtained commitments of Lenders to fund such Incremental Term Facility (“Incremental Financing Commitments”), then (i) the conditions set forth in Section 2.14(b), Section 2.14(d), Section 4.2(a), Section 4.2(b), and clause (iv)(a) in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” shall be limited as follows, if and to the extent such Lenders so agree in their Incremental Financing Commitments: (A) the conditions set forth in Section 2.14(d) and Section 4.2(a) shall be limited such that the only representations and warranties the accuracy of which shall be a condition to the availability of such Incremental Facility shall be (1) customary “specified representations”, and (2) such representations and warranties under the definitive agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition (the “Limited Condition Acquisition Agreement”) as entitle the applicable Loan Party (or the applicable Subsidiary) to terminate its obligations under such Limited Condition Acquisition Agreement or decline to consummate such Limited Condition Acquisition, in each case, without paying any penalty or compensation to the other party or incurring liability for breach if such representations and warranties fail to be true and correct, and (B) the reference   in Section 2.14(b), Section 4.2(b) and clause (iv)(a) in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” to no Default or no Event of Default, as applicable, means (1) no Default or no Event of Default, as applicable, shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the execution of the Limited Condition Acquisition Agreement, and (2) no Event of Default under Section 8.1(a), 8.1(f) or 8.1(g) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the funding of such Incremental Term Facility in connection with the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, and (ii) for purposes of determining whether the conditions set forth in Section 2.14(c) or clause (iv)(b) in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” have been satisfied in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition, at the option of Adtalem (Adtalem’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, a “ LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such condition has been satisfied shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition is executed (the “LCA Test Date”), and if, for the Limited Condition Acquisition and the funding of such Incremental Term Facility in connection with the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, the Loan Party or the applicable Subsidiary would have satisfied such condition on the relevant LCA Test Date, such condition shall be deemed to have been satisfied. If Adtalem has made a LCA Election for any Limited Condition Acquisition, then in connection with any calculation of any ratio, test or basket availability with respect to any Specified Transaction (each, a “Subsequent Transaction”) following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated and the date that the definitive agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining whether such Subsequent Transaction is permitted under this Agreement, any such ratio, test or basket shall be calculated and tested both on (x) a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions in connection therewith have been consummated until such time as the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition has actually closed or the applicable Limited Condition Acquisition Agreement has been terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, and (y) a standalone basis without giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions in connection therewith. It is understood and agreed that this Section 1.11 shall not limit the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 or in the definition of “Permitted Acquisition” with respect to any proposed Borrowing of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans or any issuance of Letters of Credit, in each case, in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition or otherwise.
 
ARTICLE II.

THE COMMITMENTS AND CREDIT  EXTENSIONS
37

 
2.1
Revolving Loans and Term Loans.
 
(a)            Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make loans (each such loan, a “Revolving Loan”) to the Borrowers or any of them in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies from time to time, on any Business Day during the Availability Period, in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided, however, that after giving effect to any Borrowing:
 
(i)            the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments,
 
(ii)            the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Lender, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans shall not exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; and
 
(iii)            the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit.
 
Within the limits of each Lender’s Revolving Commitment, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower may borrow under this Section 2.1(a), prepay under Section 2.5, and reborrow under this Section 2.1. Revolving Loans may be Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as further provided herein.
 
(b)            Term B Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Term B Lender severally agrees to make its portion of a term loan (the “Term B Loan”) to Adtalem in Dollars on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Term B Loan Commitment. Amounts repaid on the Term B Loan may not be reborrowed. The Term B Loan may consist of Base Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, or a combination thereof, as further provided herein, provided, however, any Borrowings made on the Closing Date shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless Adtalem delivers a funding indemnity letter not less than three (3) Business Days prior to  the date of such Borrowing.
 
2.2
Borrowings, Conversions and Continuations.
 
(a)            Each Borrowing, each conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, and each continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be made upon the applicable Borrower’s irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone, or (B) a Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed immediately by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Loan Notice. Each such notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m.:
 
(i)            two Business Days prior to the requested date of any Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars or of any conversion of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Dollars to Base Rate Loans,
 
(ii)            four Business Days (or five Business Days in the case of a Special Notice Currency) prior to the requested date of any Borrowing or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies, and
38

 
(iii)
on the requested date of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans.
 
Each Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Except  as  provided  in Sections 2.3(c) and 2.4(c), each Borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be in a principal amount of $500,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.  Each Loan Notice shall specify:
 
(i)            whether the applicable Borrower is requesting a Borrowing, a conversion of Loans from one Type to the other, or a continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans,
 
(ii)            the requested date of the Borrowing, conversion or continuation, as the case may be (which shall be a Business Day),
 
(iii)
the principal amount of Loans to be borrowed, converted or continued,
 
(iv)            the Type of Loans to be borrowed or to which existing Loans are to be converted,
 
(v)
if applicable, the duration of the Interest Period with respect thereto, and
 
(vi)
the currency of the Loans to be borrowed.
 
If a Borrower fails to specify a currency in a Loan Notice requesting a Borrowing, then the Loans so requested shall be made in Dollars. If a Borrower fails to specify a Type of Loan in a Loan Notice or if a Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the related Loans shall be made as, or converted to, Base Rate Loans; provided, however, that in the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Loans shall be continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans in their original currency with an Interest Period of one month. Any such automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loans. If a Borrower requests a Borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in any such Loan Notice, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. No Loan may be converted into or continued as a Loan denominated in a different currency, but instead must be prepaid in the original currency of such Loan and reborrowed in the other  currency.
 
(b)            Following receipt of a Loan Notice, the Administrative Agent  shall  promptly notify each applicable Lender of the amount (and currency) of its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Loans, and if no timely notice of a conversion or continuation is provided by the applicable Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall notify each applicable Lender of the details of any automatic conversion to Base Rate Loans or continuation of Loans denominated in a currency other than Dollars, in each case as described in the preceding subsection. In the case of a Borrowing,  each applicable Lender shall make the amount of its Loan available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds at the Administrative Agent’s Office for the applicable currency not later than 12:00 (noon) in the case of any Loan denominated in Dollars, and not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency, in each case on the Business Day specified in the applicable Loan Notice. Upon satisfaction of the applicable conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (and, if such Borrowing is the initial Credit Extension, Section 4.1), the Administrative Agent shall make all funds so received available to the applicable Borrower in like funds as received by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of such Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance   with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by such Borrower; provided, however, that if, on the date the Loan Notice with respect to a Borrowing of Revolving Loans denominated in Dollars is given by a Borrower, there are L/C Borrowings for such Borrower outstanding, then the proceeds of such Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be applied, first, to the payment in full of any such L/C Borrowings, and second, to such Borrower as provided above.
39

 
 
(c)            Except as otherwise provided herein, a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued or converted only on the last day of the Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Loan. During the existence of a Default, no Loans may be requested as, converted to or continued as Eurocurrency Rate Loans (whether in Dollars or any Alternative Currency) without the consent of the Required Lenders, and the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency be prepaid, or redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.
 
(d)            After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect.
 
(e)            Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all or a portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by Adtalem, the Administrative Agent and such Lender.
 
(f)
This Section 2.2 shall not apply to Swingline Loans.
 
2.3
Letters of Credit.
 
(a)            The Letter of Credit Commitment.
 
(i)            Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, (A) the L/C Issuer agrees, in reliance upon the agreements of the Revolving Lenders set forth  in  this  Section 2.3, (1) from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, to issue Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in one or more Alternative Currencies for the account of any Borrower, and to amend or extend Letters of Credit previously issued by it in accordance with subsection 2.3(b) below, and (2) to honor drawings under such Letters of Credit; and (B) the Revolving Lenders severally agree to participate in such Letters of Credit and any drawings thereunder; provided that after giving effect to any L/C Credit Extension with respect to any Letter of Credit: (w) the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments; (x) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Revolving Lender, plus such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment; (y) the Outstanding Amount of the L/C Obligations shall not exceed the Letter of Credit Sublimit; and (z) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of all Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations denominated in Alternative Currencies shall not exceed the Alternative Currency Sublimit. Each request by a Borrower for the issuance or amendment of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be a representation by such Borrower that the L/C Credit Extension so   requested complies with the conditions set  forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Borrower’s ability to obtain Letters of Credit shall be fully revolving, and accordingly each Borrower may, during the foregoing period, obtain Letters of Credit to replace Letters of Credit that have expired or that have been drawn upon and reimbursed. All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof.
40


 
(ii)            The L/C Issuer shall not issue any Letter of Credit if the expiry date of such requested Letter of Credit would occur after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless all the Revolving Lenders have approved such expiry date; provided that the L/C Issuer may issue Letters of Credit with an expiry date after the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (but the L/C Issuer shall have no obligation to issue) without such consent so long as Adtalem or the applicable Designated Borrower Cash Collateralizes such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to at least 103% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower hereby agrees that on or before the Letter of Credit Expiration Date Adtalem or such Designated Borrower shall Cash Collateralize any Letter of Credit existing on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date issued for such Borrower’s account in an amount equal to at least 103% of the face amount of such Letter of Credit. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto agree that the obligations of the Revolving Lenders hereunder to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any Unreimbursed Amount with respect to any Letter of Credit shall terminate on the Maturity Date with respect to drawings occurring after that date.
 
(iii)            The L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:
 
(A)            any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the L/C Issuer from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Law applicable to the L/C Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the L/C Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the L/C Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the L/C Issuer   is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the L/C Issuer any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the L/C Issuer in good faith deems material to it;
 
(B)            the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the L/C Issuer applicable to letters of credit generally;
 
(C)            except as otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer, such Letter of Credit is in an initial amount less than the Dollar Equivalent of $100,000;
 
(D)            such Letter of Credit is to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars or an Alternative Currency;
41

 
(E)            the L/C Issuer does not as of the issuance date of such requested Letter of Credit issue Letters of Credit in the requested currency;
(F)            any Revolving Lender is at that time a Defaulting Lender, unless the L/C Issuer has entered into arrangements, including the delivery of Cash Collateral, satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (in its sole discretion) with Adtalem or the Borrower(s) for whose account Letters of Credit are issued or such Defaulting Lender to eliminate the L/C Issuer’s actual or potential Fronting Exposure (after giving effect to Section 2.16(b)) with respect to the Defaulting Lender arising from either the Letter of Credit then proposed to be issued or that Letter of Credit and all other L/C Obligations as to which the L/C Issuer has actual or potential Fronting Exposure, as it may elect in its sole discretion; or
 
(G)            such Letter of Credit contains any provisions for automatic reinstatement of the stated amount after any drawing thereunder.
 
(iv)            The L/C Issuer shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (A) the L/C Issuer would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (B) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.
 
(v)            The L/C Issuer shall act on behalf of the Lenders with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it and the documents associated therewith, the L/C Issuer shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) as between the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, provided to the Administrative Agent in Article IX with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the L/C Issuer in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and Issuer Documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Administrative Agent” as used in Article IX included the L/C Issuer with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the L/C Issuer.
 
(b)            Procedures for Issuance and Amendment of Letters of Credit; Auto-Extension Letters of Credit.
 
(i)            Each Letter of Credit shall be issued or amended, as the case may be, upon the request of the applicable Borrower delivered to the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) in the form of a Letter of Credit Application, appropriately completed and signed by a Responsible Officer of such Borrower. Such Letter of Credit Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the L/C Issuer, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the L/C Issuer. Such Letter of Credit Application must be received by the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m. at least two Business Days (or such later date and time as the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer may agree in a particular instance in their sole discretion) prior to the proposed issuance date or date of amendment, as the case may be. In the case of a request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer: (A) the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day); (B) the amount and currency thereof; (C) the expiry date thereof; (D) the name and address of the beneficiary thereof; (E) the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in case of any drawing thereunder; (F) the full  text  of any certificate to be  presented  by such  beneficiary in case  of any  drawing
42


 
thereunder; (G) the purpose and nature of the requested Letter of Credit; and (H) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. In the case of a request for an amendment of any outstanding Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Application shall specify in form and detail satisfactory to the L/C Issuer (A) the Letter of Credit to be amended; (B) the proposed date of amendment thereof (which shall be a Business Day); (C) the nature of the proposed amendment; and (D) such other matters as the L/C Issuer may require. Additionally, the Borrowers shall furnish to the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, including any Issuer Documents, as the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent may require.
 
(ii)            Promptly after receipt of any Letter of Credit Application of a Borrower, the L/C Issuer will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received a copy of such Letter of Credit Application from such Borrower and, if not, the L/C Issuer will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the L/C Issuer has received written notice from any Lender, the Administrative Agent or a Borrower, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Article IV shall not be satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the L/C Issuer shall, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the requesting Borrower or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in accordance with the L/C Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. Immediately upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the L/C Issuer a risk participation in such Letter of Credit in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Letter of Credit.
 
(iii)            If a Borrower so requests in any applicable Letter of Credit Application, the L/C Issuer may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the L/C Issuer 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 “Nonextension Notice Date”) in each such twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the L/C Issuer, no Borrower shall be required to make a specific request to the L/C Issuer for any such extension. Once an Auto- Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the L/C Issuer to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, that the L/C Issuer shall not permit any such extension if (A) the L/C Issuer has determined that it would not be permitted to or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.3(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or in writing) on or before the day that is two Business Days before the Nonextension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Required Revolving Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the related Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 4.2 is not then satisfied, and in each case directing the L/C Issuer not to permit such extension.
43

 
(iv)            Promptly after its delivery of any Letter of Credit or any amendment to a Letter of Credit to an advising bank with respect thereto or to the beneficiary thereof, the L/C Issuer will also deliver to the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent a true and complete copy of such Letter of Credit or amendment.
 
(c)
Drawings and Reimbursements; Funding of Participations.
 
(i)            Upon receipt from the beneficiary of any Letter of Credit of any notice of a drawing under such Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower and the Administrative Agent thereof. In the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer in such Alternative Currency, unless (A) the L/C Issuer (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in Dollars, or (B) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in Dollars, the applicable Borrower shall have notified the L/C Issuer promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that it will reimburse the L/C Issuer in Dollars. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the L/C Issuer shall notify the applicable Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. Not later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, or the Applicable Time on the date of any payment by the L/C Issuer under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each such date, an “Honor Date”), the applicable Borrower shall reimburse the L/C Issuer through the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency. If a Borrower fails to so reimburse the L/C Issuer by such time, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date, the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars) in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency (the “Unreimbursed Amount”), and the amount of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. In such event, such Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a Borrowing of Base Rate Revolving Loans to be disbursed on the Honor Date in an amount equal to the Unreimbursed Amount, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified in Section 2.2 for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the amount of the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than the delivery of a Loan Notice). Any notice given by the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 2.3(c)(i) may be given by telephone if immediately confirmed in writing; provided that the lack of such an immediate confirmation shall not affect the conclusiveness or binding effect of such notice.
 
(ii)            Each Revolving Lender shall upon any notice pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) make funds available (and the Administrative Agent may apply Cash Collateral provided for this purpose) for the account of the L/C Issuer in Dollars, at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated deposits in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Unreimbursed Amount not later than 12:00 p.m. on the Business Day specified in such notice  by  the  Administrative  Agent,  whereupon,  subject  to   the   provisions   of  Section 2.3(c)(iii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Loan to the related Borrower in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the L/C Issuer in Dollars.
 
(iii)            With respect to any Unreimbursed Amount that is not fully refinanced by  a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans because the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 cannot be
44

 
satisfied or for any other reason, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have incurred from the L/C Issuer an L/C Borrowing in the amount of the Unreimbursed Amount that is not so refinanced, which L/C Borrowing shall be due and payable on demand  (together with interest) and shall bear interest at the Default Rate. In such event, each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant   to Section 2.3(c)(ii) shall be deemed payment in respect of its participation in such L/C Borrowing and shall constitute an L/C Advance from such Revolving Lender in satisfaction of its participation obligation under this Section 2.3.
 
(iv)            Until each Revolving Lender funds its Revolving Loan or L/C Advance pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) to reimburse the L/C Issuer for any amount drawn under any Letter of Credit, interest in respect of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such amount shall be solely for the account of the L/C Issuer.
 
(v)            Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or L/C Advances to reimburse the L/C Issuer for amounts drawn under Letters of Credit, as contemplated by this Section 2.3(c), shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the L/C Issuer, any Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.3(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 (other than delivery of a Loan Notice). No such making of an L/C Advance shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of any Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for the amount of any payment made by the L/C Issuer under any Letter of Credit, together with interest as provided herein.
 
(vi)            If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.3(c) by the time specified in Section 2.3(c)(ii), then, without limiting the other provisions of this Agreement, the L/C Issuer shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the L/C Issuer at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the L/C Issuer in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or L/C Advance in respect of the relevant L/C Borrowing, as the case may be. A certificate of the L/C  Issuer submitted to any Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (vi) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(d)
Repayment of Participations.
 
(i)            At any time after the L/C Issuer has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any Revolving Lender such Revolving Lender’s L/C Advance in respect of such payment in accordance with Section 2.3(c), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the L/C Issuer any payment in respect of the related Unreimbursed Amount or interest thereon (whether directly from the related Borrower   or otherwise, including proceeds of Cash Collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), the Administrative Agent will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof in Dollars and in the same funds as those received by the Administrative Agent.
45


 
(ii)            If any payment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 2.3(c)(i) is required to be returned under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.5 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the L/C Issuer in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the L/C Issuer its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned by such Revolving Lender, at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect. The obligations of the  Revolving Lenders under this clause shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations and the termination  of this Agreement.
 
(e)            Obligations Absolute. The obligation of each Borrower to reimburse the L/C Issuer for each drawing under each Letter of Credit issued for its account and to repay each L/C Borrowing shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including the following:
 
(i)            any lack of validity or enforceability of such Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;
 
(ii)            the existence of any claim, counterclaim, set-off, defense or other right that such Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the L/C Issuer or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or by such Letter of Credit or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, or any unrelated transaction;
 
(iii)            any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented under such Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; or any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under such Letter of Credit;
 
(iv)            waiver by the L/C Issuer of any requirement that exists for the L/C Issuer’s protection and not the protection of the Borrowers or any waiver by the L/C Issuer which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrowers;
 
(v)          honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;
 
(vi)          any payment made by the L/C Issuer in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;
 
(vii)            any payment by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by the L/C Issuer under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;
46

 
(viii)            any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Borrowers, or in the relevant currency markets generally; or
 
(ix)            any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar  to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute    a defense available to, or a discharge of, such Borrower.
 
Each Borrower shall promptly examine a copy of each Letter of Credit and each amendment thereto that is delivered to it and, in the event of any claim of noncompliance with such Borrower’s instructions or other irregularity, such Borrower will immediately notify the L/C Issuer. Such Borrower shall be conclusively deemed to have waived any such claim against the L/C Issuer and its correspondents unless such notice is given as aforesaid.
 
(f)            Role of L/C Issuer. Each Lender and each Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the L/C Issuer shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by the Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity or accuracy of any such document or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable to any Lender for (i) any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders, the Required Lenders, the Required Pro Rata Facilities Lenders or the Required Revolving Lenders, as applicable, as applicable; (ii) any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct; or (iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or Issuer Document. Each Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude such Borrower from pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the L/C Issuer shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (v) of Section 2.3(e); provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the applicable Borrower may have a claim against the L/C Issuer, and the L/C Issuer may be liable to such Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by such Borrower which such Borrower proves were caused by the L/C Issuer’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or the L/C Issuer’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the L/C Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, and the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid  or ineffective  for any reason.   The L/C Issuer may send a Letter of Credit or conduct   any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.
47

 
(g)            Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the L/C Issuer and the applicable Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to any Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Issuer shall not be responsible  to the Borrowers for,  and the L/C Issuer’s rights and remedies against the Borrowers shall not be impaired by, any action or inaction of the L/C Issuer required under any Law or practice that is required to be applied to any Letter of Credit, including the Law of a jurisdiction where the L/C Issuer or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such Law or practice.
 
(h)            Letter of Credit Fees. Each Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent  for  the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance, subject to Section 2.16, with its Pro Rata Share, in Dollars a letter of credit fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) for each Letter of Credit issued for the account of such Borrower, such fee to be equal to the Applicable Rate times the Dollar Equivalent of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.10. Such Letter of Credit Fees shall be computed on a quarterly basis in arrears. After the end of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the issuance of such Letter of Credit, such Letter of Credit Fees shall be due and payable one Business Day after receipt by the Borrowers of an invoice for the same. If there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the daily amount available to be drawn under of each Letter of Credit shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained  herein, upon  the request of the Required Revolving Lenders, while any Event of Default exists, all Letter of Credit Fees shall accrue at the Default Rate.
 
(i)            Fronting Fee and Documentary and Processing Charges Payable to L/C Issuer. Each Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account a fronting fee, payable in Dollars with respect to each Letter of Credit in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter (such fronting fee to be based on the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Letters of Credit); provided, however, that to the extent the applicable Borrower has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.15, such Cash Collateralized L/C Obligations shall not be subject to any fronting fee. For purposes of computing the daily amount available to be drawn under any Letter  of Credit, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be determined in accordance with Section 1.10. In addition, each Borrower shall pay directly to the L/C Issuer for its own account the customary issuance, presentation, amendment and other processing fees, and other standard costs and charges, of the L/C Issuer relating to letters of credit as from time to time in effect. Such customary fees  and standard costs and charges are due and payable one Business Day after receipt by the Borrowers of an invoice for the same and are nonrefundable.
 
(j)            Conflict with Issuer Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and the terms of any Issuer Document, the terms hereof shall control.
48

 
(k)            Removal of L/C Issuer. If (i) the L/C Issuer shall fail to issue any Letters of Credit by reason of the conditions specified in Section 2.3(a)(ii) or 2.3(a)(iii)(C), or (ii) the L/C Issuer shall cease to have a minimum long or short term credit rating of A or better from S&P or a long  or short term rating of A-3 or better from Moody’s, the Borrowers may remove the L/C Issuer by notice to the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. No removal of the L/C Issuer shall be effective prior to the acceptance by another Lender hereunder of an appointment as L/C Issuer. Upon the acceptance of an appointment as L/C Issuer, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of the retiring L/C Issuer and the retiring L/C Issuer shall be discharged from its obligations to issue additional Letters of Credit hereunder. At the time such removal shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.3(h) and (i). The acceptance of an appointment as L/C Issuer hereunder by a successor Lender shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (a) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the previous L/C Issuer under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (b) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “L/C Issuer” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous L/C Issuer, or to such successor and all previous L/C Issuers, as the context shall require. After the removal of the L/C Issuer hereunder, the retiring L/C Issuer shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an L/C Issuer under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.
 
2.4
Swingline Loans.
 
(a)            Swingline Facility. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.4, may in its sole discretion make loans in Dollars (each such loan, a “Swingline Loan”) to Adtalem from time to time on any Business Day during the Availability Period in an aggregate amount not to exceed at any time outstanding the amount of the Swingline Sublimit (notwithstanding the fact that such Swingline Loans, when aggregated with the Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations of the Lender acting as Swingline Lender, may exceed the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Commitment); provided, however, that after giving effect to any Swingline Loan,
 
(i)            the Total Revolving Outstandings shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitments,
 
(ii)            the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of any Revolving Lender, plus such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations, plus such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Outstanding Amount of all Swingline Loans, shall not exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment,
 
and provided, further, that Adtalem shall not use the proceeds of any Swingline Loan to refinance any outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits, and subject to the other terms and conditions hereof, Adtalem may borrow under this Section 2.4, prepay under Section 2.5, and reborrow under this Section 2.4. Each Swingline Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan. Immediately upon the making of a Swingline Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swingline Lender a risk participation in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share times the amount of such Swingline Loan.
49

 
(b)            Borrowing Procedures. Each Swingline Borrowing shall be made upon Adtalem’s irrevocable notice to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent,   which may be given by
(A)    telephone or (B) by a Swingline Loan Notice; provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Swingline Lender and the Administrative Agent of a Swingline Loan Notice. Each such Swingline Notice must be received by the Swingline Lender  and the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 (noon) on the requested  borrowing  date, and shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, which shall be a minimum of $100,000 or, if less, the unused Swingline Sublimit, and (ii) the requested borrowing date, which shall be a Business Day. Promptly after receipt by the Swingline Lender of any Swingline Loan Notice, the Swingline Lender will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has also received such Swingline Loan Notice and, if not, the Swingline Lender will notify the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) of the contents thereof. Unless the Swingline Lender has received notice (by telephone or in writing) from the Administrative Agent (including at the request of any Lender) prior to 12:00 (noon) on the date of the proposed Swingline Borrowing (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in the proviso to the first sentence of Section 2.4(a), or
(B)          that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Article IV is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender will, not later than 2:00 p.m. on the borrowing date specified in such Swingline Loan Notice, make the amount  of its Swingline Loan available to Adtalem at its office by crediting the account of Adtalem on the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds.

(c)
Refinancing of Swingline Loans.
 
 
(i)            The Swingline Lender at any time in its sole and absolute discretion may request, on behalf of Adtalem (which hereby irrevocably authorizes the Swingline Lender to so request on its behalf), that each Revolving Lender make a Base Rate Revolving Loan in an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the amount of Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such request shall be made in writing (which written request shall be deemed to be a Loan Notice for purposes hereof) and in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.2, without regard to the minimum and multiples specified therein for the principal amount of Base Rate Loans, but subject to the unutilized portion of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. The Swingline Lender shall furnish Adtalem with a copy of the applicable Loan Notice promptly after delivering such notice to the Administrative Agent. Each Revolving Lender shall make an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the amount specified in such Loan Notice available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Swingline Lender at the Administrative Agent’s Office for Dollar-denominated payments not later than 12:00 (noon) on the day specified in such Loan Notice, whereupon, subject   to Section 2.4(c)(ii), each Revolving Lender that so makes funds available shall be deemed to have made a Base Rate Revolving Loan to Adtalem in such amount. The Administrative Agent shall remit the funds so received to the Swingline Lender.
 
(ii)            If for any reason any Swingline Loan cannot be refinanced by such a Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(i), the request for Base Rate Revolving Loans submitted by the Swingline Lender as set forth herein shall be deemed to be a request by the Swingline Lender that each of the Revolving Lenders fund its risk participation in the relevant Swingline Loan and each Revolving Lender’s payment to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(c)(i) shall  be deemed payment in respect of such  participation.
50

 
(iii)            If any Revolving Lender fails to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender any amount required to be paid by such Revolving Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.4(c) by the time specified in Section 2.4(c)(i), the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Revolving Lender (acting through the Administrative Agent), on demand, such amount with interest thereon for the period from the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to the Swingline Lender at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate from time to time in effect, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Swingline Lender in connection with the foregoing. If such Revolving Lender pays such amount (with interest and fees as aforesaid), the amount so paid shall constitute such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Loan included in the relevant Borrowing or funded participation in the relevant Swingline Loan, as the case may be. A certificate of the Swingline Lender submitted to any Revolving Lender (through the Administrative Agent) with respect to any amounts owing under this clause (iii) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
 
(iv)            Each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans or to purchase and fund risk participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (A) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Lender may have against the Swingline Lender, Adtalem or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (B) the occurrence or continuance of a Default, or (C) any other occurrence, event or condition, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing; provided, however, that each Revolving Lender’s obligation to make Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.4(c) is subject to the conditions set forth in Section 4.2. No such funding of risk participations shall relieve or otherwise impair the obligation of Adtalem to repay Swingline Loans, together with interest as provided herein.
 
(d)
Repayment of Participations.
 
(i)            At any time after any Revolving Lender has purchased and funded a risk participation in a Swingline Loan, if the Swingline Lender receives any payment on account of such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender will distribute to such Revolving Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Lender’s risk participation was funded) in the same funds as those received by the Swingline Lender.
 
(ii)            If any payment received by the Swingline Lender in respect of principal  or interest on any Swingline Loan is required to be returned by the Swingline Lender under any of the circumstances described in Section 11.5 (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Swingline Lender in its discretion), each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Swingline Lender its Pro Rata Share thereof on demand of the Administrative Agent, plus interest thereon from the date of such demand to the date such amount is returned, at  a rate per annum equal to the applicable Overnight Rate.

2.8
Interest.

56

 
(a)            Commitment Fee. Adtalem shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender in accordance with its Pro Rata Share, a commitment fee in Dollars equal to the Applicable Rate times the actual daily amount by which the Aggregate Revolving Commitments exceed the sum of (i) the Outstanding Amount of Revolving Loans and (ii) the Outstanding Amount of L/C Obligations, subject to adjustment as provided in Section 2.16. The commitment fee shall accrue at all times during the Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article IV is not met. The commitment fee shall be due and payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, commencing with the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and on the Maturity Date, provided that if Adtalem has not received an invoice for such fees, such fees shall be due one Business Day after receipt of an invoice therefore. The commitment fee shall be calculated quarterly in arrears, and if there is any change in the Applicable Rate during any quarter, the actual daily amount shall be computed and multiplied by the Applicable Rate separately for each period during such quarter that such Applicable Rate was in effect. For the avoidance of doubt, Swingline Loans shall not be counted towards or considered usage of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments for purposes of determining the commitment fee.

(b)            Other Fees. (i) Adtalem shall pay to MLPFS and the Administrative Agent for their own respective accounts fees in the amounts and at the times specified in the Fee Letter (it being understood that such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever), and (ii) Adtalem shall pay to the Lenders such fees as shall have been separately agreed upon in writing in the amounts and at the times so specified. Such fees shall be fully earned when paid and shall not be refundable for any reason whatsoever.
 
2.10
Computation of Interest and Fees.
 
All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans (including Base Rate Loans determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed.  All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year), or, in the case of interest in respect of Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies as to which market practice differs from the foregoing, in accordance with such market practice. Interest shall accrue on each Loan for the day on which the Loan is made, and shall not accrue on a Loan, or any portion thereof, for the day on which the Loan or such portion is paid, provided that any Loan that is repaid on the same day on which it is made shall, subject to Section 2.12(a), bear interest for one day. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fee hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
 
2.11
Evidence of Debt.
 
(a)            The Credit Extensions made by each Lender shall be evidenced by one or more accounts or records maintained by such Lender and by the Administrative Agent in the ordinary course of business. The accounts or records maintained by the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be conclusive absent manifest error of the amount of the Credit Extensions made by the Lenders to each Borrower and the interest and payments thereon. Any failure to so record or any error in doing so shall not, however, limit or otherwise affect the obligation of each Borrower hereunder to pay any amount owing with respect to the Obligations. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error. Upon the request of any Lender made through the  Administrative Agent, each Borrower  shall  execute and deliver to such  Lender  (through  the Administrative Agent) a Note, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount, currency and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto.
57

 
(b)            In addition to the accounts and records referred to in subsection (a), each Lender and the Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts or records evidencing the purchases and sales by such Lender of participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. In the event of any conflict between the accounts and records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the accounts and records of any Lender in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
 
2.12
Payments Generally; Administrative Agent’s Clawback.
 
(a)            General. All payments to be made by the Borrowers shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein and except with respect to principal of and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, all payments by a Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in Dollars and in Same Day Funds not later than 1:00 p.m. on the date specified herein. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrowers hereunder with respect to principal and interest on Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the applicable Administrative Agent’s Office in such Alternative Currency and in Same Day Funds not later than the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent on the dates specified herein. 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. If, for any reason, any Borrower is prohibited by any Law from making any required payment hereunder in an Alternative Currency, such Borrower shall make such payment in Dollars in the Dollar Equivalent of the Alternative Currency payment amount. The Administrative Agent will promptly distribute to each Lender its Pro Rata Share (or other applicable share as provided herein) of such payment in like funds as received by wire transfer to such Lender’s Lending Office. All payments received  by  the  Administrative  Agent  (i) after  1:00 p.m. in the case of payments in Dollars, or (ii) after the Applicable Time specified by the Administrative Agent in the case of payments in an Alternative Currency, shall in each case be deemed received on the next succeeding Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue to accrue. If any payment to be made by the Borrowers (or any of them) shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may  be.
 
(b)            (i) Funding by Lenders; Presumption by Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Eurocurrency Rate Loans (or, in the case of any Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume  that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance   with Section
2.2 (or, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans, that such Lender has made such share  available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.2) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In  such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent  forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in    Same  Day
58

 
Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Overnight Rate, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to such Borrower the amount of such interest paid by such Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by such Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim such Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.
(ii)     Payments by Borrowers; Presumptions by Administrative Agent.  Unless  the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Borrower prior to the time at which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or  the L/C Issuer hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on  such  date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer,  as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Overnight Rate.
 
A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or Adtalem with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.
(c)            Failure to Satisfy Conditions Precedent. If any Lender makes available to the Administrative Agent funds for any Loan to be made by such Lender as provided in the foregoing provisions of this Article II, and such funds are not made available to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent because the conditions to the applicable Credit Extension set forth in Article IV are not satisfied or waived in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent shall return such funds (in like funds as received from such Lender) to such Lender, without interest.
 
(d)            Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 11.4(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to fund any such participation or to make any payment under Section 11.4(c) are on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or purchase its participation or to make its payment under Section 11.4(c).
 
(e)            Funding Source. Nothing herein shall be deemed to obligate any Lender to obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner or to constitute a representation by any Lender that it has obtained or will obtain the funds for any Loan in any particular place or manner.
 
2.13
Sharing of Payments.
59

 
If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of the Loans made by it, or the participations in L/C Obligations or in Swingline Loans held by it resulting in such Lender’s receiving payment of a proportion of the aggregate amount of such Loans or participations and accrued interest thereon greater than its pro rata share thereof as provided herein, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall (a) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact, and (b) purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and subparticipations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans of the other Lenders, or make such other adjustments as shall be equitable, so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and other amounts owing them, provided that:
 
(i)            if any such participations or subparticipations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations or subparticipations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest; and
 
(ii)            the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to (A) any payment made by or on behalf of a Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), (B) the application of Cash Collateral provided for in Section 2.15, or
(C)    any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or subparticipations in L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than an assignment to a Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply).
 
Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such  participation.

2.15
Cash Collateral.
 
(a)            Certain Credit Support Events. If (i) the L/C Issuer has honored any full or partial drawing request under any Letter of Credit and such drawing has resulted in an L/C Borrowing, (ii) as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any L/C Obligation for any reason remains outstanding,
(iii) the Borrowers shall be required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 8.2 or (iv) there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, Adtalem shall (or shall cause the Designated Borrowers to) immediately (in the case of clause (iii) above) or within one Business Day (in all other cases)  following any request by the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer provide Cash Collateral in an amount not less than the applicable Minimum Collateral Amount (determined in the case of Cash Collateral provided pursuant to clause (iv) above, after giving effect to Section 2.16(b) and any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). In addition, if the Administrative Agent notifies Adtalem at any time that the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations at such time exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit then in effect, then, within two Business Days after receipt of such notice, Adtalem shall (or shall cause the Designated Borrowers to) Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations in an amount equal to the amount by which the Outstanding Amount of all L/C Obligations exceeds the Letter of Credit Sublimit. The Administrative Agent may, at any time and from time to time after the initial deposit of Cash Collateral, request that additional Cash Collateral be provided in order to protect against the results of exchange rate fluctuations.
 
(b)            Grant of Security Interest. All Cash Collateral (other than credit support not constituting funds subject to deposit) shall be maintained in blocked deposit accounts at Bank of America. Each Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to (and subjects to the control of) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash, deposit accounts and all balances therein, and all other property so provided as collateral pursuant hereto, and in all proceeds of the foregoing, all as security for  the obligations to which such Cash Collateral may be applied pursuant to Section 2.15(c). If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent or the L/C Issuer as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Adtalem (or the applicable Designated Borrower) or the relevant Defaulting Lender will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency.
 
(c)            Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under any of this Section 2.15 or Section 2.3, 2.5, 2.16 or 8.2 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be held and applied to the satisfaction of the specific L/C Obligations, obligations to fund participations therein (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) and other obligations for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may be provided for herein.
 
 
63

 
(d)  Release. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce Fronting Exposure or to secure other obligations shall be released promptly following (i) theelimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure or other obligations giving rise thereto (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender (or, as appropriate, its assignee following compliance with Section 11.6(b)(vii))) or (ii) the Administrative Agent’s and L/C Issuer’s good faith determination that there exists excess Cash Collateral; providedhowever, (x) that Cash Collateral furnished by or on behalf of a Borrower shall not be released during the continuance of a Default (and following application as provided in this Section 2.15 may be otherwise applied in accordance with Section 8.3), and (y) the Person providing Cash Collateral and the L/C Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall not be released but instead held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
 
2.16
Defaulting Lenders.
 
(a)            Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable Law:
 
(i)            Waivers and Amendments. That Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolving Lenders,” “Required Pro Rata Facilities Lenders” and Section 11.1.
 
(ii)            Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by that Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.8), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.15; fourth, as Adtalem may request (so long as no Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Adtalem, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuer’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.15; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by a Borrower against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or L/C Borrowings in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and L/C Borrowings owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments hereunder without giving effect to Section 2.16(b). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.16(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by that Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
64

 
 
(iii)
Certain Fees.
 
(A)            No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment fee pursuant to Section 2.9(a) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
 
(B)            Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.15.
 
(C)            With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the Borrowers shall (x) pay  to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (b) below, (y) pay to the L/C Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such L/C Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
 
(b)            Reallocation of Pro Rata Shares to Reduce Fronting Exposure. During any period in which there is a Defaulting Lender, for purposes of computing the amount of the obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans pursuant to Sections 2.3 and 2.4, the “Pro Rata Share” of each non-Defaulting Lender shall be computed without giving effect to the Revolving Commitment of that Defaulting Lender; provided, that, the aggregate obligation of each non-Defaulting Lender to acquire, refinance or fund participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall not exceed the positive difference, if any, of (1) the Revolving Commitment of that non-Defaulting Lender minus
(2) the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Revolving Loans of that Lender. Subject to Section 11.25, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
 
(c)            Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swingline Loans. If the reallocation described in clause (b) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under applicable Law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders’ Fronting Exposure and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the L/C Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.15.
65

 
(d)            Defaulting Lender Cure. If Adtalem, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the L/C Issuer agree in writing that a Lender should is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to Section 2.16(b)), whereupon that Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of a Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
 
2.17
Designated Borrowers.
 
(a)            As of the Closing Date, there are no Designated Borrowers.
 
(b)            Adtalem may at any time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from Adtalem to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), request the designation of any wholly-owned Offshore Subsidiary of Adtalem (an “Applicant Borrower”) as a Designated Borrower to receive Credit Extensions hereunder by delivering to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver copies thereof to each Lender that would be obligated to make Credit Extensions to such Applicant Borrower) a duly executed notice in substantially the form of Exhibit I (a “Designated Borrower Request”). If the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders obligated to make Credit Extensions to such Applicant Borrower, agree in writing that such Applicant Borrower shall be entitled to receive Credit Extensions hereunder, then the Administrative Agent shall send an agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit J (a “Designated Borrower Joinder Agreement”) to Adtalem specifying (x) the additional terms and conditions applicable to Credit Extensions to such Applicant Borrower due to applicable Laws and/or operational requirements with respect to the jurisdiction of organization for such Applicant Borrower and (y) the effective date upon which the Applicant Borrower shall constitute a Designated Borrower for purposes hereof. Upon the execution of such Designated Borrower Joinder Agreement by Adtalem, such Applicant Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such Applicant Borrower shall be a Designated Borrower and permitted to receive Credit Extensions hereunder, on the terms and conditions set forth herein and therein, and such Applicant Borrower otherwise shall be a Borrower for all purposes of this Agreement; provided that no Loan Notice or Letter of Credit Application may be submitted by or on behalf of such Designated Borrower until the date five Business Days after such effective date (or such shorter period as agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that prior to any Designated Borrower becoming entitled to utilize the credit facilities provided for in this Agreement the Administrative Agent shall have received  for the benefit of each Lender that would be obligated to make Credit Extensions to such Designated Borrower  such  supporting  resolutions,  incumbency  certificates,  opinions  of  counsel  and other documents or information, in form, content and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as may be required by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion.
66

 
(c)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, (i) the Obligations of each of the Designated Borrowers shall be several in nature and (ii) no Designated Borrower and no Offshore Guarantor shall have any liability for the direct Obligations of Adtalem hereunder.

(d)            Each Subsidiary of Adtalem that is or becomes a “Designated Borrower” pursuant to this Section 2.17 hereby irrevocably appoints Adtalem as its agent for all purposes relevant to this Agreement and each of the other Loan Documents, including (i) the giving and receipt of notices, (ii) the execution and delivery of all documents, instruments and certificates contemplated herein and all modifications hereto, and (iii) the receipt of the proceeds of any Loans made to any such Designated Borrower hereunder. Any acknowledgment, consent, direction, certification or other action which might otherwise be valid or effective only if given or taken by all Borrowers, or by each Borrower acting singly, shall be valid and effective if given or taken only by Adtalem, whether or not any such other Borrower joins therein. Any notice, demand, consent, acknowledgement, direction, certification or other communication delivered to Adtalem in accordance with the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been delivered to each Designated Borrower; provided that if such communication is directed to a specific Designated Borrower, it shall indicate to which Designated Borrower it is directed.
 
(e)            Adtalem may from time to time, upon not less than 15 Business Days’ notice from Adtalem to the Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), terminate a Designated Borrower’s status as such, provided that there are no outstanding Loans payable by such Designated Borrower, or other amounts payable by such Designated Borrower on account of any Loans made to it, as of the effective date of such termination. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Lenders that would be obligated to make Credit Extensions to such Designated Borrower of any such termination of a Designated Borrower’s status and, to the extent applicable, terminate the Offshore Guaranty with respect to such Designated Borrower and (to the extent not otherwise required to be pledged under the Loan Documents to secure other Obligations) release the Lien on the Equity Interests pledged to secure the Obligations of such Designated Borrower.
 
2.18
Refinancing Loans.
 
 
(a)            Adtalem may, from time to time, and subject to the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed or conditioned), add one or more new term loan facilities to this Agreement (“Refinancing Loans”) pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to Adtalem, to refinance all or any portion of the Term B Loan then outstanding under this Agreement pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Refinancing Loans: (i) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder; (ii) shall not be Guaranteed by any Person that is not a Guarantor; (iii) shall be secured by the Collateral on an equal and ratable basis with the Obligations; (iv) shall have such pricing terms as may be agreed by Adtalem and the applicable lenders thereof; (v) shall have a maturity date that is not prior to the scheduled Maturity Date for the Term B Loan, and shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity that is not shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term B Loan being refinanced; (vi) subject to clauses (iv) and (v) above, shall have terms and conditions (other than pricing) that are substantially identical to, or less favorable to the lenders providing such Refinancing Loans than, the terms and conditions of the Term B Loan being refinanced (unless such terms are reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent); and (vii) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Refinancing Loans shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the prepayment of the Term B Loan being so refinanced, in each case in the manner set forth in Section 2.5(c); provided however, that such Refinancing Loans (x) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed among Adtalem and the lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the latest Maturity Date of any of the Loans (and Commitments) that remain outstanding after giving effect to such Refinancing Loans or the date on which all non- refinanced Obligations are paid in full and (y) shall not have a principal or commitment amount (or accreted value) greater than the principal amount of the Term B Loan being refinanced (plus accrued interest, fees, discounts, premiums or expenses payable in connection therewith).
67

 
 
(b)            Adtalem shall make any request for Refinancing Loans pursuant to a written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof. No Lender shall have any obligation hereunder to provide Refinancing Loans.  To achieve the full amount of  a requested issuance of Refinancing Loans, and subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), Adtalem may invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Lenders in respect of such Refinancing Loans pursuant to  a joinder agreement to this Agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
 
(c)            The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements, including any supplements or amendments to the Collateral Documents providing for such Refinancing Loans to be secured thereby. The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with Adtalem as may be necessary in order to establish new tranches of Refinancing Loans and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Adtalem in connection with the establishment of such new tranches, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.18.
 
(d)            Each class of Refinancing Loans incurred under this Section 2.18 shall be in an aggregate  principal  amount  that is (i) not  less than $50,000,000  and  (ii) an integral  multiple of
$10,000,000 in excess thereof.

(e)            Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Loans incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Refinancing Loans as a separate class of “Loan” hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Term B Loan being refinanced, including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than Adtalem, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Refinancing Loans, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and Adtalem, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.18.

 
ARTICLE III.
TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY
68


 
3.1
Taxes.
 
(a)            Payment Free of Taxes. Any and all payments 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, on the basis of the information and documentation delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below, 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 such Borrower 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) 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. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above, each Loan Party 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 the payment of, any Other Taxes.
 
(c)            Tax Indemnification. (i) Each Borrower shall severally indemnify each Recipient, within 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) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any penalties, interest and reasonable  expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto (but excluding such penalties, interest and expenses imposed or asserted on account of the bad faith or willful neglect of such Recipient), 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 Adtalem 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. Each Borrower shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefore, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to clause (c)(ii) below with respect to such Borrower. To the extent that a Borrower pays an amount to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence with respect to Excluded Taxes or the failure to maintain a Participant Register, the applicable Lender shall indemnify such Borrower for such Taxes.
 
(ii)      Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within   10 days after demand therefore, for (x) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Loan Parties have not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (y) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 11.7(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) 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
69

 
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 clause (ii).
 
(d)            Evidence of Payment.

71

(f)            Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable Laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender or the L/C Issuer, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or with respect to which any Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay to such Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Borrower under this Section with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the L/C Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This subsection shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.
 
3.2
Illegality.
 
If any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder make, maintain or fund or charge interest with respect to any Credit Extensions or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency), or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Dollars or any Alternative Currency in the applicable interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the applicable Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension or continue Eurocurrency Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in Dollars, to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended and (ii) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender making or maintaining Base Rate Loans the interest rate on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender, shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, in each case until such Lender notifies the
72

 
Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the applicable Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable and such Loans are denominated in Dollars, convert all of such Lender’s Eurocurrency Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans (the interest rate on which Base Rate Loans of such Lender shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate), either on the last day of the Interest Period therefore, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) if such notice asserts the illegality of such Lender determining or charging interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, the Administrative Agent shall during the period of such suspension compute the Base Rate applicable to such Lender without reference to the Eurocurrency Rate component thereof until the Administrative Agent is advised in writing by such Lender that it is no longer illegal for such Lender to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the applicable Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.
 
Each Lender at its option may make any Credit Extension to a Borrower by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Credit Extension; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of such Borrower to repay such Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or such Lender’s ability to make Credit Extensions hereunder in the Alternative Currencies in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, if any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge any interest rate with respect to any Credit Extension to any Designated Borrower who is organized under the laws of a jurisdiction other than the United States, a State thereof or the District of Columbia then, on notice thereof by such Lender to Adtalem through the Administrative Agent, and until such notice by such Lender is revoked, any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Credit Extension shall be suspended. Upon receipt of such notice, the Loan Parties shall, take all reasonable actions requested by such Lender to mitigate or avoid such illegality.
3.3
Inability to Determine Rates.
 
 
(a)            If in connection with any request for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or a conversion to or continuation thereof, (i) the Administrative Agent determines that (A) deposits (whether in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan or (B) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan (whether denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency) or in connection with an existing or proposed Base Rate Loan, (in each case with respect to clause (i), “ Impacted Loans”), or (ii) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Eurocurrency Rate Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan, the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the applicable Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies shall be suspended and (y) in the event of a determination described in the preceding sentence with respect to the Eurocurrency Rate component of the Base Rate, the utilization of the Eurocurrency Rate component in determining the Base Rate shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods), in each case until the Administrative Agent (upon the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the applicable Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the affected currency or currencies or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein.
73

 
 
(b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in clause (a)(i) of this Section, the Administrative Agent in consultation with Adtalem and the Required Lenders, may establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under clause (a)(i) of this Section, (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify Adtalem that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to the Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or   its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and Adtalem written notice thereof.
 
3.4
Increased Costs; Reserves on Eurocurrency Rate Loans.
 
(a)            Increased Costs Generally.  If any Change in Law shall:
 
(i)            impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement contemplated by Section 3.4(e)) or the L/C Issuer;
 
(ii)            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; or

(iii)            impose on any Lender or the L/C Issuer or the London interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;
 
and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making, converting to, continuing or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan), or to increase the cost to such Lender or the L/C Issuer of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit), or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon  request  of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, Adtalem will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.
 
 
74

 
(b)          Capital Requirements. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or the L/C Issuer or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, regarding capital or liquidity requirementshas or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s  capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the L/C Issuer, to a level below that which such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time Adtalem will pay to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.
 
(c)            Certificates for Reimbursement. A certificate of a Lender or the L/C Issuer setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the L/C Issuer or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section and delivered to Adtalem shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Adtalem shall pay (or cause the applicable Designated Borrower to pay) such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.
 
(d)            Delay in Requests. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s right to demand such compensation, provided that no Borrower shall be required to compensate a Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 90 days prior to the date that such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies Adtalem of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the L/C Issuer’s intention to claim compensation therefore (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 90-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).
 
(e)            Additional Reserve Requirements. Adtalem shall pay (or shall cause the applicable Designated Borrower to pay) to each Lender, (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency funds or deposits (currently known as “Eurocurrency liabilities”), additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Commitments or the funding of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Commitment or Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Loan, provided Adtalem shall have received at least 10 days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of such additional interest or costs from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice 10 days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or costs shall be due and payable 10 days from receipt of such notice.
 
(f)            Mandatory Costs. If any Lender or the L/C Issuer incurs any Mandatory Costs attributable to the Obligations, then upon written notice from such Lender, Adtalem will pay (or cause the applicable Designated Borrower to pay) to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, such Mandatory Costs on each date that interest is required to be paid on the Loans so long as such Lender incurs such Mandatory Costs. Such amount shall be expressed as a percentage rate per annum and shall be payable on the full amount of the applicable Obligations.
75

 
 
3.5
Compensation for Losses.
 
Upon demand of any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) from time to time, Adtalem shall promptly compensate (or cause the applicable Designated Borrower to compensate) such Lender for and hold such Lender harmless from any loss, cost or expense incurred by it as a result   of:
 
(a)            any continuation, conversion, payment or prepayment of any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period for such Loan (whether voluntary, mandatory, automatic, by reason of acceleration, or otherwise);
 
(b)            any failure by any Borrower (for a reason other than the failure of such Lender to make a Loan) to prepay, borrow, continue or convert any Eurocurrency Rate Loan on the date or  in the amount notified by Adtalem or the applicable Designated Borrower;
 
(c)            any failure by any Borrower to make payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereon) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency; or
 
(d)            any assignment of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the Interest Period therefore as a result of a request by Adtalem pursuant to Section 11.15;
 
including any loss of anticipated profits, any foreign exchange losses and any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain such Loan, from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained or from the performance of any foreign exchange contract. Adtalem shall also pay any customary administrative fees charged by such Lender in connection with the foregoing.
 
For purposes of calculating amounts payable by any Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 3.5, each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each Eurocurrency Rate Loan made by it at the Eurocurrency Rate used in determining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing  in the offshore interbank market for such currency for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded.
3.6
Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
 
(a)            Designation of a Different Lending Office. Each Lender may make any Credit Extension to a Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrowers to repay the Credit Extension in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.4, or a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender, the L/C Issuer, or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender or the L/C Issuer pursuant to Section 3.1, or if any Lender gives a notice pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3, then such Lender or the L/C Issuer shall, as applicable, use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the L/C Issuer, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.1 or 3.4, as the case may be, in the future, or eliminate the need for the notice pursuant to Section 3.2 or 3.3, as applicable, and (ii) in each case, would not subject such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be, to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as the case may be. Adtalem hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or the L/C Issuer in connection with any such designation or assignment.
76

 
 
(b)            Replacement of Lenders. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.4, or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, or if a Lender has given notice pursuant to Section 3.3, Adtalem may replace such Lender in accordance with Section 11.15.
 
3.7
Successor LIBOR.
 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Documents (including Section 11.1 hereof), if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error), or Adtalem or Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent (with, in the case of the Required Lenders, a copy to Adtalem) that Adtalem or Required Lenders (as applicable) have determined, that:
 
(i)            adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining LIBOR for any requested Interest Period because the LIBOR Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary; or
 
(ii)            the administrator of the LIBOR Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which LIBOR or the LIBOR Screen Rate shall no longer be made available, or used for determining the interest rate of loans (such specific date, the “Scheduled Unavailability Date”), or
 
(iii)            syndicated loans currently being executed, or that include language similar to that contained in this Section, are being executed or amended (as applicable) to incorporate or adopt a new benchmark interest rate to replace LIBOR,
 
then, reasonably promptly after such determination by the Administrative Agent or receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and Adtalem may amend this Agreement to replace LIBOR with an alternate benchmark rate (including any mathematical or other adjustments to the benchmark (if any) incorporated therein), giving due consideration to any evolving or then existing convention for similar syndicated credit facilities for such alternative benchmarks (any such proposed rate, a “LIBOR Successor Rate”), together with any proposed LIBOR Successor Rate Conforming Changes (as defined below) and any such amendment shall become effective at 5:00 p.m. (New York time) on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent shall have posted  such proposed  amendment to  all Lenders and Adtalem unless, prior to such time, Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders do not accept such amendment.
 
If no LIBOR Successor Rate has been determined and the circumstances under clause (i) above exist or the Scheduled Unavailability Date has occurred (as applicable), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify Adtalem and each Lender. Thereafter, (x) the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be suspended, (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods), and (y) the Eurocurrency Rate component shall no longer be utilized in determining the Base Rate. Upon receipt of such notice, Adtalem may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing  of,  conversion  to or     continuation of Eurocurrency Rate Loans  (to the extent of the affected Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Interest Periods) or, failing that, will be deemed to have converted such request into a request for a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans (subject to the foregoing clause (y)) in the amount specified therein.
77

 
Notwithstanding anything else herein, any definition of LIBOR Successor Rate shall provide that in no event shall such LIBOR Successor Rate be less than zero for purposes of this  Agreement.

3.8

(ii) such Offshore Subsidiary (x) has assets which (together with the assets of its Subsidiaries whose stock is Excluded Offshore Stock) do not exceed 15% of the consolidated assets of Adtalem and  its Subsidiaries as of the end of the most recent fiscal period for which financial statements were delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b),, and (y) together with its Subsidiaries whose Equity Interests are Excluded Offshore Stock does not (or would not) represent more than 15% of the Consolidated EBITDA of Adtalem and its Subsidiaries as of the end of the most recent fiscal period for which financial statements were delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(a) or 6.1(b),.
In connection with the pledge of stock or Equity Interests pursuant to the Collateral Documents, Adtalem agrees that it will from time to time upon request of the Administrative Agent, at Adtalem’s expense, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Administrative Agent such pledge supplements,  share  certificates, stock powers and other documents and, to the extent  required  by the Administrative Agent, opinions of counsel and take or cause to be taken such other action (including the filing of documents and the payment of taxes and charges) as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.

(i)            declare the commitment of each Revolving Lender to make Revolving Loans, the commitment of each Lender in respect of any unfunded Incremental Tranche A Term Loan, any obligation of the Swingline Lender to make Swingline Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligations shall be terminated;
 
(ii)            declare the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swingline Loans, Incremental Tranche A Term Loans, all interest accrued and unpaid thereon, and all other amounts owing or payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document in respect of the Revolving Commitments and Incremental Tranche A Term Loans to be immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by each Borrower; and
102

(iii)            require that the Borrowers Cash Collateralize the L/C Obligations (in an amount equal to the Minimum Collateral Amount with respect thereto); or
 
(b)            if such Event of Default is any Event of Default other than an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(b) above as a result of any Loan Party’s failure to perform or observe Section 7.15 (or, if (x) such Event of Default is an Event of Default specified in Section 8.1(b) above as a result of any Loan Party’s failure to perform or observe Section 7.15 and (y) the Administrative Agent has taken any of the actions described in the immediately preceding clause (a)), the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the Required Lenders, take any or all of the following actions:
 
(i)            declare the commitment of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions to be terminated, whereupon such commitments and obligation shall be terminated;

provided, however, that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 8.1(f) or 8.1(g), the obligation of each Lender to make Loans and any obligation of the L/C Issuer to make L/C Credit Extensions shall automatically terminate, the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding Loans and all interest and other amounts as aforesaid shall automatically become due and payable, and the obligation of Adtalem to Cash Collateralize (or cause the Designated Borrowers to Cash Collateralize) the L/C Obligations as aforesaid shall automatically become effective, in each case without further act of the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

8.3
Application of Funds.
 
 
After the exercise of remedies provided for in Section 8.2 (or after the Loans have automatically become immediately due and payable and the L/C Obligations have automatically been required to be Cash Collateralized as set forth in the proviso to Section 8.2), any amounts received on account of the Obligations shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 2.15 and 2.16, be applied by the Administrative Agent in the following order:
 
First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article III) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such;
 
Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities and other amounts (other than principal, interest and Letter of Credit Fees) payable to the Lenders (including Attorney Costs and amounts payable under Article III), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause Second payable to  them;
103

 
Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid Letter of Credit Fees and interest on the Loans and L/C Borrowings, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Third payable to  them;
 
 
Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting (i) unpaid principal of  the Loans and L/C Borrowings, (ii) Swap Termination Values under any Specified Swap Contract (to the extent such Specified Swap Contract shall have been terminated and as to which the Administrative Agent shall have received notice of such termination and the Swap Termination Value thereof), (iii) amounts owing under any Specified Cash Management Agreements and (iv) obligations to Cash Collateralize that portion of L/C Obligations comprised of the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit, all ratably among the Lenders (and in the case of Specified Swap Contracts, any Affiliate of a Lender) in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth held by them;
 
Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the applicable Borrower or as otherwise required by  Law.
 
Subject to Sections 2.3(c) and 2.15, amounts used to Cash Collateralize the aggregate undrawn amount of Letters of Credit pursuant to clause Fourth above shall be applied to satisfy drawings under such Letters of Credit as they occur. If any amount remains on deposit as Cash Collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, payments and Cash Collateral provided by a Designated Borrower shall only be applied to the Obligations of such Designated Borrower. Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Loan Party shall not be paid with amounts received from such Loan Party or such Loan Party’s assets, but appropriate adjustments shall be made with respect to payments from other Loan Parties to preserve the allocation to Obligations otherwise set forth above in this Section.
 
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.3 to the contrary, (x) amounts received from an Offshore Guarantor with respect to the Obligations shall only be applied to satisfy the Obligations guaranteed by such Offshore Guarantor pursuant to the Offshore Guaranty to which it is a party and (y) amounts received from a Designated Borrower with respect to the Obligations shall only be applied to satisfy the Obligations of such Designated Borrower.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Obligations arising under Specified Cash Management Agreements and Specified Swap Contracts shall be excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received a Secured Party Designation Notice, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the applicable Lender or Affiliate thereof, as the case may  be (unless such Lender or Affiliate is the Administrative Agent or an Affiliate thereof, in which case no Secured Party Designation Notice is required). Each Affiliate of a Lender that not a party to this Agreement that has given the notice contemplated by the preceding sentence shall, by such notice, be deemed to have acknowledged and accepted the appointment of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms of Article IX for itself and its Affiliates as if a “Lender” party hereto.
 
ARTICLE IX.

ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
 
9.1
Appointment and Authority.
104

 
Each of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable Law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.
 
The Administrative Agent shall also act as the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents, and each of the Lenders (in its capacities as a Lender, Swingline Lender (if applicable), party to any Specified Swap Contract and party to any Specified Cash Management Agreement) and the L/C Issuer hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to act as the agent of such Lender and the L/C Issuer for purposes of acquiring, holding and enforcing any and all Liens on Collateral, together with such powers and discretion as are reasonably incidental thereto. In this connection, the Administrative Agent, as “collateral agent” and any co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact appointed by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 9.5 for purposes of holding or enforcing any Lien on the Collateral (or any portion thereof) granted under the Collateral Documents, or for exercising any rights and remedies thereunder at the direction of the Administrative Agent), shall be entitled to the benefits of all provisions of this Article IX and Article XI (including Section 11.4(c), as though such co-agents, sub-agents and attorneys-in-fact were the “collateral agent” under the Loan Documents) as if set forth in full herein with respect thereto.
 
9.2
Rights as a Lender.
 
The Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and  powers  in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person 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 business with any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or to provide notice to or consent of the Lenders with respect thereto.
9.3
Exculpatory Provisions.
 
The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
 
(a)            shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;
 
(b)            shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
105

 
expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
 
(c)            shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Loan Party or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
 
Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (i) with the consent 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 shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 11.1 and 8.2) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Any such action taken or failure to act pursuant to the foregoing shall be binding on all Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower, a Lender or the L/C Issuer.

Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall have any duty to any Lender or Participant or any other Person to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the Collateral Documents, (v) the value or the sufficiency of any Collateral, or (vi) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.4
Reliance by Administrative Agent.
 
The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to  be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or the L/C Issuer unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or the L/C Issuer prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Loan Parties), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
106

 
9.5
Delegation of Duties.
 
The Administrative Agent may perform any and all 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 and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or 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 in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents 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- agents.
 
 
9.6
Resignation of Administrative Agent.
 
 
(a)            The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and Adtalem. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right (subject, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the consent of Adtalem, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above, provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor  has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
 
 
(b)            If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, by notice in writing to Adtalem and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, subject, so long as no Event of Default exists, to the consent of Adtalem, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty days  (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
 
(c)            With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (i) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the L/C Issuer under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (ii) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and the L/C Issuer directly, until  such  time, if  any, as the Required  Lenders appoint  a  successor  Administrative  Agent  as
107

 
provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.8 and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section). The fees payable by Adtalem to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between Adtalem and such successor. After the retiring  or  removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan  Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 11.4 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed 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 or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent.
 
(d)            Any resignation by Bank of America as Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender. If Bank of America resigns as an L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto, including the right to require the Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(c). Upon the appointment by Adtalem of a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder (which successor shall in all cases be a Revolving Lender other than a Defaulting Lender), (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as applicable, (ii) the retiring L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and (iii) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.
 
9.7
Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders.
 
Each Lender and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information 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.
 
9.8
No Other Duties; Etc.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, none of the bookrunners, arrangers, syndication agents, documentation agents or co-agents shall have any powers, duties or responsibilities under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, except in its capacity, as applicable, as the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the L/C Issuer hereunder.
9.9
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim; Credit Bidding.
 
In case of the pendency of any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or L/C 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 any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, 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 Obligations and all other Obligations arising  under  the Loan Documents 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 L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of  the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.3(h) and 2.3(i), 2.9 and 11.4) 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 judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and the L/C Issuer to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the L/C Issuer, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Sections 2.9 and   11.4.
 
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 the L/C Issuer any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or the L/C Issuer to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or the L/C Issuer in any such proceeding.
 
The holders of the Obligations hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar Laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Loan Party is subject, (b) at any other sale or foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable Law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the holders thereof shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that would vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount  proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount  used  in

ARTICLE X.
 
 
CONTINUING GUARANTY
 

10.1
Guaranty.
 
 
Adtalem hereby absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, as a guarantee of payment and not merely as a guarantee of collection, prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of any and all Obligations of each Designated Borrower and all other Obligations of any Subsidiary of Adtalem (including, in each case, all renewals,  extensions and modifications thereof and all costs, attorneys’ fees and expenses incurred by the Lenders in connection with the collection or enforcement thereof) (collectively, the “Guaranteed Obligations”). The books and records of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders showing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be admissible in evidence in any action or proceeding, and shall be binding upon Adtalem and conclusive, absent manifest error, for the purpose of establishing the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations.  This guaranty shall not be affected by the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability  of the Guaranteed Obligations or any instrument or agreement evidencing any Guaranteed Obligations, or  by the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, or extent of any collateral therefore, or by any fact or circumstance relating to the Guaranteed Obligations which might otherwise constitute a defense to the obligations of Adtalem hereunder.
 
10.2
No Termination.
 
The obligations of Adtalem under this Article X constitute a continuing and irrevocable guaranty of all Guaranteed Obligations now or hereafter existing and shall remain in full force and effect until all Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Article X are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments of the Lenders with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations are terminated.
 
10.3
Waiver of Notices.
 
 
Adtalem waives notice of the extension or continuation of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof. Adtalem further waives presentment, protest, notice, dishonor or default, demand for payment and any other notices to which Adtalem might otherwise be  entitled.
 
10.4
Subrogation.
113

 
Adtalem shall exercise no right of subrogation, contribution or similar rights with respect to any payments it makes in respect of this guaranty until all of the Guaranteed Obligations and any amounts payable under this Article X are indefeasibly paid and performed in full and the Commitments of the Lenders are terminated. If any amounts are paid to Adtalem in violation of the foregoing limitation, then such amounts shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Lenders and shall forthwith be paid to the Lenders to reduce the amount of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether matured or   unmatured.
10.5
Waiver of Suretyship Defenses.
 
Adtalem agrees that the Administrative Agent and Lenders may, at any time and from time to time, and without notice to Adtalem, make any agreement with any Designated Borrower or with any other person or entity liable on any of the Guaranteed Obligations or providing collateral as security for the Guaranteed Obligations, for the extension, renewal, payment, compromise, discharge or release of the Guaranteed Obligations or any collateral (in whole or in part), or for any modification or amendment of the terms thereof or of any instrument or agreement evidencing the Guaranteed Obligations or the provision of collateral, all without in any way impairing, releasing, discharging or otherwise affecting the obligations of Adtalem under this Article X. Adtalem waives any defense arising by reason of any disability or other defense of any Designated Borrower or any other Loan Party, or the cessation from any cause whatsoever of the liability of such Designated Borrower, or any claim that Adtalem’s obligations exceed or are more burdensome than those of such Designated Borrower and waives the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting the liability of the Administrative Agent or Adtalem hereunder. Adtalem waives any right to enforce any remedy which the Administrative Agent or Lenders now have or may hereafter have against  any Designated Borrower and waives any benefit of and any right to participate in any security now or hereafter held by the Lenders. Further, Adtalem consents to the taking of, or failure to take, any action which might in any manner or to any extent vary the risks of Adtalem under this Article X or which, but  for this provision, might operate as a discharge of Adtalem.
10.6
Exhaustion of Other Remedies Not Required.
 
 
The obligations of Adtalem in respect of this Article X are those of primary obligor, and not merely as surety, and are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Adtalem waives diligence by the Lenders  and action on delinquency in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof, including, without limitation any provisions of law requiring the Lenders to exhaust any right or remedy or to take any action against any Designated Borrower, or any other Person or property before enforcing this guaranty against Adtalem.

10.7
Reinstatement.
 
Notwithstanding anything in this Article X to the contrary, the obligations of Adtalem under this Article X shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations is revoked, terminated, rescinded or reduced or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Designated Borrower or any other Person or otherwise, as if such payment had not been made and whether or not the Lenders is in possession of or has released Adtalem from the obligations of this Article X and regardless of any prior revocation, rescission, termination or reduction.
10.8
Subordination.
 
Adtalem hereby subordinates the payment of all obligations and indebtedness of each Designated Borrower owing to Adtalem, whether now existing or hereafter arising, including but not limited to any obligation of such Designated Borrower to Adtalem as subrogee of the Lenders or resulting from Adtalem’s
114

 
performance under this Article X, to the indefeasible payment in full of all Guaranteed Obligations. If the Lenders so request, any such obligation or indebtedness of the applicable Designated Borrower to Adtalem shall be enforced and performance received by Adtalem as trustee for the Lenders and the proceeds thereof shall be paid over to the Lenders on account of the Guaranteed Obligations, but without reducing or affecting in any manner the liability of Adtalem under this Article X.
 
10.9
Stay of Acceleration.
 
In the event that acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed, upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Designated Borrower or any other Person, or otherwise, all such amounts shall nonetheless be payable by Adtalem immediately upon demand by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders.
 
10.10
Condition of Designated Borrowers.

 
Adtalem acknowledges and agrees that it has the sole responsibility for, and has adequate means of, obtaining from each Designated Borrower, such information concerning the financial condition,  business and operations of such Designated Borrower as Adtalem requires, and that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders have any duty, and Adtalem is not relying on the Administrative Agent or Lenders at any time, to disclose to Adtalem any information relating to the business, operations or financial condition of any Designated Borrower.

(y)          result from a claim brought by any Loan Party against an Indemnitee for breach in bad faith of such Indemnitee’s obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, if such Loan Party has obtained a final and nonappealable judgment in its favor on such claim as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.
 
(c)            Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrowers for any reason fail  to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) of this Section to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), the L/C Issuer, the Swingline Lender or any Related Party of any of the foregoing, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer, the Swingline Lender or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount, provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub- agent), the L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent), the L/C Issuer
123

124

 
(b)            Assignments by Lenders. Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans (including for purposes of this subsection (b), participations in L/C Obligations and in Swingline Loans) at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following  conditions:

(ii)            Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s Loans and Commitments, and rights and obligations with respect thereto assigned (i.e., the same proportionate assignment by a Lender of the Obligations owing to it by Adtalem and the Designated Borrowers, respectfully), except that this clause (ii) shall not (A) apply to the Swingline Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of Swingline Loans or (B) prohibit any Lender from assigning all or a portion of its rights and obligations among any revolving credit facility or term loan facility provided hereunder on a non-pro rata basis;

(D)            the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments.
 
(iv)            Assignment and Assumption.

The assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

(v)

126


 
(vii)  Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties tothe assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of Adtalem and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
 
Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.4, 3.5, and 11.4 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the applicable Borrower (at its expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations  under this Agreement that does not comply with this subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section.
(c)            Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non- fiduciary agent of the Borrowers (and such agency being solely for tax purposes), shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Obligations 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent 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 Borrowers and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
 
(d)            Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person (or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for  the primary benefit of a natural Person), a Defaulting Lender or Adtalem or any of Adtalem’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, 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 Commitments and/or the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in L/C Obligations and/or Swingline Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 11.4(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.
127

 
 
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, waiver or other modification described in Sections 11.1(a)(i) through 11.1(a)(x) that directly affects such Participant. Subject to subsection (e) of this Section, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.1, 3.4 and 3.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.8 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.13 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 Borrowers, 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 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.
 
(e)            Limitation on Participant Rights. A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.1 or 3.4 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. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at Adtalem’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Adtalem to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.6(b) with respect to any Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 3.1 unless Adtalem is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrowers, to comply with Section 3.1(e) as though it were a Lender.
 
(f)            Certain Pledges. Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note, if any) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of  its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
128

 
(g)            Resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender after Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at any time Bank of America assigns all of its Revolving Commitment and Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 11.6(b) above, Bank of America may, (i) upon 30 days’ notice to Adtalem and the Lenders, resign as L/C Issuer and/or (ii) upon 30 days’ notice to Adtalem, resign as Swingline Lender. In the event of any such resignation as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, Adtalem shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a successor L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by Adtalem to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of Bank of America as L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be. If Bank of America resigns as L/C Issuer, it shall retain all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the L/C Issuer hereunder with respect to all Letters of Credit outstanding as of the effective date of its resignation as L/C Issuer and all L/C Obligations with respect thereto (including the right to require the Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in Unreimbursed Amounts pursuant to Section 2.3(c)). If Bank of America resigns as Swingline Lender, it shall retain all the rights of the Swingline Lender provided for hereunder with respect to Swingline Loans made by it and outstanding as of the effective date of such resignation, including the right to require the Revolving Lenders to make Base Rate Revolving Loans or fund risk participations in outstanding Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.4(c). Upon the appointment of a successor L/C Issuer and/or Swingline Lender, (1) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties  of the retiring L/C Issuer or Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (2) the successor L/C Issuer shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time   of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to Bank of America to effectively assume the obligations of Bank of America with respect to such Letters of Credit.
 
11.7
Confidentiality.

 
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential); (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners); (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process; (d) to any other party to this Agreement; (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those  of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (or any Person invited to become a Lender pursuant to Section 2.14) or (ii) any direct or indirect contractual counterparty or prospective counterparty (or such contractual counterparty’s or prospective counterparty’s professional advisor) to any credit derivative transaction relating to obligations of the Loan Parties; (g) on a confidential basis to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating any Loan Party or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of Adtalem; or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the L/C Issuer on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Adtalem. In addition, the Administrative Agent, and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market  data collectors,  similar  service  providers to the lending industry,  and  service providers to the
129

 
Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration and management of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the Commitments, and the Credit  Extensions.
 
For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from any Loan Party relating to any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or any of their respective businesses, other than any such  information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by any Loan Party; provided that, in the case of information received from a Loan Party after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified in writing at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
 
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuer acknowledges that (a) the Information may include material non-public information concerning a Loan Party or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, (b) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and (c) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with applicable Law, including United States Federal and state securities Laws.
 
The Loan Parties consent to the publication by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of customary advertising material relating to the transactions contemplated hereby using the name, product photographs, logo or trademark of the Loan Parties; provided that no such publication or advertising material will contain non-public financial information concerning any Loan Party without the prior consent of Adtalem.
 
11.8
Set-off.
 
In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender, the L/C Issuer and each of their respective Affiliates is authorized at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to Adtalem or any other Loan Party, any such notice being waived by Adtalem (on its own behalf and on behalf of each Loan Party) to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held by, and other indebtedness at any time owing by, such Lender, the L/C Issuer or any such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the respective Loan Parties against any and all Obligations owing to such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates by such Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document, now or hereafter existing, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate shall have made demand under this Agreement or any other Loan Document and although such Obligations may be contingent or unmatured or are owed   to a branch or office of such Lender or the L/C Issuer different from the branch or office or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.16 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender, the L/C Issuer and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the L/C Issuer or their respective Affiliates may have. Each Lender and the L/C Issuer agrees promptly to notify Adtalem and the  Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or the L/C Issuer, as applicable; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

11.9
Interest Rate Limitation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non-usurious interest permitted by applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent or any Lender shall receive interest in an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Loans or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.
 
11.10
Counterparts.
 
 
This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement  by facsimile or other electronic imaging means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.
 
11.11
Integration.
 
This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, comprises the complete and integrated agreement of the parties on the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all prior agreements, written or oral, on such subject matter. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and those of any other Loan Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall control; provided that the inclusion of supplemental rights or remedies in favor of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders in any other Loan Document shall not be deemed a conflict with this Agreement. Each Loan Document was drafted with the joint participation of the respective parties thereto and shall be construed neither against nor in favor of any party, but rather in accordance with the fair meaning thereof.
 
11.12
Survival of Representations and Warranties.
 
All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any Credit Extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied or any Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.
 
11.13
Severability.
 
If any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, (a) the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not be affected or impaired thereby and (b) the parties shall endeavor in good faith negotiations to replace the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the  economic  effect  of which  comes as close  as possible  to that  of the illegal, invalid  or unenforceable provisions. The invalidity of a provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.13, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by Debtor Relief Laws, as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
131


 
11.14
[Reserved].
 
11.15
Replacement of Lenders.
 
If (i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 3.4, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 3.1, (iii) a Lender gives notice under Section 3.3, (iv) any Lender is a Non-Consenting Lender or
(v)          any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then Adtalem may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 11.6), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.1 and 3.4) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:
 
(a)            Adtalem shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 11.6(b);
 
(b)            such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and L/C Advances, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts  under Section 3.5 and, if applicable, under Section 2.5(d)) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the applicable Borrower(s) (in the case of  all other amounts, including any amounts payable under Section 2.5(d));
 
(c)            in the case of any such assignment resulting from (i) a claim for compensation under Section 3.4 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 3.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter or (ii) a notice or restriction under Section3.3, such assignment will result in such restriction not being applicable;
 
(d)
such assignment does not conflict with applicable Laws; and
 
(e)            in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable replacement bank, financial institution or Fund consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; provided that the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans and participations in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans pursuant to this Section 11.15 shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Non- Consenting Lender of an Assignment and Assumption.
132

 
A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling Adtalem to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

ARTICLE XII.

COLLECTION ALLOCATION MECHANISM.
 
12.1
Implementation of CAM.
 
(a)            On the CAM Exchange Date, to the extent not otherwise prohibited by Law, each Lender shall immediately be deemed to have acquired (and shall promptly make payment therefor to the Swingline Lender in accordance with Section 2.4(c)(ii)) participations in the Swingline Loans in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share in each Swingline Loan outstanding on such date. On the CAM Exchange Date, after giving effect to the provisions of the preceding sentence and the provisions of Section 12.2, each Lender severally, unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that it shall purchase, sell or exchange, as the case may be (without duplication), (w) a participating interest in the Designated Obligations, (y) participations held by Revolving Lenders in Swingline Loans and (z) participations held by Revolving Lenders in L/C Obligations and rights to related L/C Reserve Accounts, in each case, in an amount equal to its CAM Percentage of the outstanding Designated Obligations and participations referred to in clauses (y) and (z) above such that in lieu of the interest of each Lender in such Designated Obligations and participations in which it shall participate prior to the CAM Exchange Date, such Lender shall hold an interest in every CAM Tranche of Designated Obligations, Swingline Loans and L/C Obligations and related L/C Reserve Accounts, whether or not such Lender shall have previously participated therein, equal to such Lender’s CAM Percentage thereof on the CAM Exchange Date. Each Lender hereby consents and agrees to the CAM Exchange, and each Lender agrees that the CAM Exchange shall be binding upon its successors and assigns and any person that acquires a participation in its interests in any revolving loan or term loan facility under this Agreement. Each Lender agrees from time to time to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent all instruments and documents as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request to evidence and confirm the respective interests of the Lenders after giving effect to the CAM Exchange. The CAM Exchange shall be made by calculating the Dollar Equivalent of the outstanding amount of all Loans denominated in an Alternate Currency, as determined as of the CAM Exchange Date by the Administrative Agent.
 
(b)            As a result of the CAM Exchange, upon and after the CAM Exchange Date, each payment received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Loan Document in respect of the Designated Obligations and outstanding principal and interest on Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit, and each distribution made by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any Collateral Document in respect of the Designated Obligations and outstanding principal and interest on Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit, shall be distributed to the Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective CAM Percentages.  Any direct payment received by a Lender upon or after  the CAM Exchange Date, including by way of setoff, in respect of a Designated Obligation, or outstanding principal and interest on Swingline Loans or Letters of Credit, shall be paid over to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the Lenders in accordance herewith.
 
12.2
Letters of Credit.
 
137

 
(a)          In the event that on the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall be outstanding and undrawn in whole or in part, or any amount drawn under a Letter of Credit shallnot have been reimbursed either by the Borrowers or with the proceeds of a Revolving Loan, each Revolving Lender shall promptly pay over to the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds in the same currency as such Letter of Credit (or, if such Letter of Credit is denominated in an Alternate Currency, if requested by the Administrative Agent, the Dollar Equivalent thereof) an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Share in such undrawn face amount or (to the extent it has not already done so) such unreimbursed drawing, as the case may be. Any such amounts not paid on the CAM Exchange Date shall accrue interest thereon from the CAM Exchange Date to the date on which such amount shall be paid to the Administrative Agent at the rate that would be applicable at the time to a Base Rate Revolving Loan, in a principal amount equal to such amount (provided that such interest shall not excuse the failure to pay such sums when due).
 
(b)            The Administrative Agent shall establish a separate interest bearing account or accounts for each Lender (each, an “L/C Reserve Account”) for the amounts received with respect to each such Letter of Credit pursuant to subsection (a) above. The Administrative Agent shall deposit in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account such Lender’s CAM Percentage of the amounts received from the Revolving Lenders as provided above. The Administrative Agent shall have sole dominion and control over each L/C Reserve Account, and the amounts deposited in each L/C Reserve Account shall be held in such L/C Reserve Account until withdrawn as provided in subsection (c), (d), (e) or (f) below. The Administrative Agent shall maintain records enabling it  to determine the amounts paid over to it and deposited in the L/C Reserve Accounts in respect of each Letter of Credit and the amounts on deposit in respect of each Letter of Credit attributable to each Lender’s CAM Percentage. The amounts held in each Lender’s L/C Reserve Account shall  be held as a reserve against the outstanding L/C Obligations, shall be the property of such Lender subject to the terms hereof, shall not constitute Loans to or give rise to any claim of or against any Loan Party and shall not give rise to any obligation on the part of any Borrower to pay interest to such Lender, it being agreed that the reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit shall arise only at such times as drawings are made thereunder, as provided in Section 2.3(c).
 
(c)            In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any drawing shall be made in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the L/C Issuer, withdraw from the L/C Reserve Account of each Lender any amounts, up to the amount of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such drawing, deposited in respect of such Letter of Credit and remaining on deposit and deliver such amounts to the L/C Issuer in satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Lenders under Section 2.3(c). In the event any Revolving Lender shall default on its obligation to pay over any amount to the Administrative Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit as provided in this Section 12.2, the L/C Issuer shall, in the event of a drawing thereunder, have a claim against such Revolving Lender to the same extent as if such Lender had defaulted on its obligations under Section 2.3(d), but shall have no claim against any other Lender in respect of such defaulted amount, notwithstanding the provisions of this Article XII. Each other Lender shall have a claim against such Defaulting Lender for any damages sustained by it as a result of such default, including, in the event such Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, its CAM Percentage of the defaulted amount. The Administrative Agent may withhold payments received under any Loan Documents that would be for the account of such Defaulting Lender and apply  such amounts toward such Defaulting Lender’s obligations.
 
(d)            In the event that after the CAM Exchange Date any Letter of Credit shall expire undrawn, the Administrative Agent shall withdraw from the L/C Reserve Account of each Lender the amount remaining on deposit therein in respect of such Lender’s CAM Percentage of such Letter of Credit and distribute such amount to such Lender.
138

 
(e)            With the prior written approval of the Administrative Agent and the L/C Issuer (not to be unreasonably withheld), any Lender may withdraw the amount held in its L/C Reserve Account in respect of the undrawn amount of any Letter of Credit. Any Lender making such a withdrawal shall be unconditionally obligated, in the event there shall subsequently be a drawing under such Letter of Credit, to pay over to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the L/C Issuer, on demand, its CAM Percentage of such drawing.
 
(f)            Pending the withdrawal by any Lender of any amounts from its L/C Reserve Account as contemplated by the above paragraphs, the Administrative Agent will, at the direction of such Lender and subject to such rules as the Administrative Agent may prescribe for the avoidance of inconvenience, invest such amounts in cash and Cash Equivalents. Each Lender which has not withdrawn its CAM Percentage of amounts in its L/C Reserve Account as provided in subsections (d) or (e) above shall have the right, at intervals reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent, to withdraw the earnings on investments so made by the Administrative Agent with amounts in its L/C Reserve Account and to retain such earnings for its own account.
 
12.3
Provisions Solely to Effect Intercreditor Relationships.
 
The provisions of this Article XII are and are intended solely for the purpose of effecting a sharing arrangement among the Lenders and reflects an agreement among creditors. None of the Loan Parties shall have any rights or obligations under this Article XII. Nothing contained in this Article XII is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Loan Parties, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay the Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with their terms. Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.1 to the contrary, this Article XII may be modified by vote of the Administrative Agent, the L/C Issuer,  the Swingline Lender and the Required Lenders (or all Lenders or   all affected Lenders to the extent Section 11.1 would have otherwise require the consent of such Lenders). This Article XII shall supersede any conflicting provisions of Section 11.6.
 
12.4
Application of this Article.
 
This Article XII shall not apply if, on the CAM Exchange Date, there are either (i) no Designated Borrowers or (ii) no Designated Borrowers with outstanding Obligations.

D.        Each of the undersigned, and each Person that hereafter becomes obligated pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement to execute a Guaranty Joinder in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto (a “Guaranty Joinder”), is willing to enter into this Guaranty as security for the Obligations under the Credit Agreement.
 

NOW, THEREFORE, as required by the Credit Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the  receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,  each Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree, jointly and severally, as follows:
 
Section 1.        Definitions

Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the  Credit Agreement or as the context shall otherwise require.

Section 2.        Guaranty of Obligations and Credit Agreement
 
(a)        Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b) hereof, each Guarantor jointly and severally does hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantee unto  the  Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties: (1) the full and prompt payment of all Obligations including, without  limitation, all principal of and interest under, all Loans (whether Base Rate Loans, Eurocurrency Rate Loans or Swingline Loans), all L/C Obligations, all L/C  Borrowings,  all  obligations under  Specified Swap Contracts, all obligations under Specified Cash Management Agreements and all fees, expenses and other amounts, if any, from time to time outstanding, as and when such payments shall become due and payable, whether by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration or otherwise (including, to the extent legally enforceable, interest due on overdue payments of principal) in federal or other immediately available funds of the United States of America which at the time of payment or demand therefor shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, (2)  the full and prompt performance and observance by Adtalem of each and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed  by Adtalem under the terms of the Loan Documents,  the Specified Cash Management Agreements and the Specified Swap  Contracts (collectively with the  Loan Documents, the “Financing Documents”), and (3) the full and prompt payment, upon demand by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, of all costs and expenses, legal or otherwise (including Attorney Costs), if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any rights, privileges or liabilities in favor of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party under or  in respect of any Loan Document or in any action in connection therewith or herewith and in each and every case irrespective of the validity, regularity, or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents or any of the terms thereof or any other like circumstance or circumstances (the payment, performance and observance of all such Obligations, covenants and agreements being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”).

(b)        The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not exceed an amount equal to a maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, be enforceable under applicable Law and result in the performance of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and not constitute a fraudulent transfer, obligation or conveyance.
 
(c)        All amounts payable under this Guaranty by each Guarantor shall be made in Dollars.

Section 3.        Guaranty of Payment and Performance

The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties may, at its option, proceed hereunder against any Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when due, the payment of which  is  guaranteed hereby, without first proceeding against Adtalem or any other Person and without  first  resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Financing Document or any other remedy. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected or impaired by any acceptance by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any direct or indirect security for,   or other guaranties of, any debt, liability or obligation of Adtalem or any other Person to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to realize upon or protect any such guarantees, debt, liability or obligation or any instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security therefor or by any approval, consent, waiver, or other action taken, or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party.
 
The covenants and agreements on the part of the Guarantors herein contained shall be joint and several covenants and agreements, and references to the Guarantors shall be deemed references to each of them and none of them shall be released from liability hereunder by reason of this Guaranty ceasing to be binding as a continuing security on any other of them.

        (a)        Each Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or any Secured Party from time to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from any other Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, and upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party may deem advisable:
4

(1)        extend in whole or in part (by renewal or otherwise), modify, increase, change, compromise, release or extend the duration of the time for the performance or payment of any  debt, liability or obligation of Adtalem or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligations of Adtalem on the Guaranteed Obligations or under any  Financing Document, or waive any Default or Event of Default with respect thereto, or waive, modify, amend or change any provision of any Financing Document;
 
(2)        sell, release, surrender, modify, impair, exchange or substitute any and all property, of any nature and from whomsoever received, held by, or for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party as direct or indirect security for the payment or performance of any debt, liability or obligation of Adtalem or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligation of Adtalem under any Financing Document; and/or
 
(3)        settle, adjust or compromise any claim of Adtalem against any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligation of Adtalem under any  Financing Document.
 
Each Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms any such extension, renewal, change, sale, release, waiver, surrender, exchange, modification, amendment, impairment, substitution, settlement, adjustment  or compromise and agrees that the same shall be binding upon it, and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any and all defenses, counterclaims or offsets which it might or could have by reason thereof, it being understood that such Guarantor shall at all times be bound by this Guaranty and remain liable hereunder.
 

    (b)        Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law:
 
(1)        notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties or of the creation, renewal or accrual of any liability of Adtalem, present or future, or of  the reliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Parties upon this Guaranty (it  being understood that all Guaranteed Obligations described in Section 2 hereof shall conclusively be presumed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the execution of this Guaranty); and
 
(2)        demand of payment by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties from Adtalem or any other Person indebted in any manner on or for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; and
 
(3)        presentment for the payment by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the  Secured Parties or any other Person of any Financing Document or any other instrument, protest thereof and notice of its dishonor to any party thereto and to such Guarantor.

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the rights of the Administrative Agent to enforce such obligations by any proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination, whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever or otherwise and shall not be subject to any defense, set-off, counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaim), recoupment or termination  whatsoever.

provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be absolute,  irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except  by the payment of   all Obligations in accordance with their respective terms whenever the same shall  become  due  and payable and all other sums due and payable under any Financing Document, at the place specified in and  all in the manner and with the effect provided in the Credit Agreement.  Without limiting the foregoing, it  is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time, Adtalem shall default under or in respect of the terms of any Financing Document and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by Adtalem under any Financing Document shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.
 
7

 
 (d)    All rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party hereunder may be transferred or assigned at any time and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the appointment of a successor to the Administrative Agent or any permitted transfer by a Lender of its rights under the Credit Agreement, whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Guarantors under this Guaranty or to Adtalem.
 
 (e)        To the extent of any payments made under this Guaranty, each Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Administrative Agent and/or the Secured Parties to whom such payment was made, but such Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment in cash in full of all amounts due and owing by Adtalem with respect to the Obligations under the Financing Documents and by the Guarantors under this Guaranty, and the Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of subrogation, and the Guarantors shall not accept any payment in respect of such right of subrogation, until the Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor  in violation of the  preceding  sentence  at  any time prior to the indefeasible payment in cash in full of all amounts payable under the Financing Documents  and this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to be credited and applied to the amounts due or to become due with respect to all  amounts  payable under the Financing Documents and this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured. Each  Guarantor acknowledges that it has received direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Financing Documents and that the waiver set forth in this paragraph (e) is knowingly made as a result of the receipt of such benefits.
 
 (f)        Each Guarantor agrees that, to the extent Adtalem, any other Guarantor or any other Person makes any payment under any of the Financing Documents, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in  part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity, or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.
 
 (g)        Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party, shall be under any obligation: (1) to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantors or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of  Adtalem under or in respect of the Financing Documents or the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder   or (2) to pursue any other remedy that the Guarantors may or may not be able to pursue themselves and  that may lighten the Guarantors’ burden, any right to which each Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
 
 (h)        The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty rank pari passu in  right  of  payment with all other Indebtedness of such Guarantor which is not secured or which is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Guarantor.
 
Section 5.        Representations and Warranties of the Guarantors
 
Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party  that:

(a)        Such Guarantor is a corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or other legal entity duly organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent the concept is applicable) under the laws of its jurisdiction of its incorporation or organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or other similar legal entity in each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such  qualification,  other than those  jurisdictions as to  which  the  failure  to be  so qualified  or in good standing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Guarantor has the power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold  under lease  except to the extent that the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to transact the business it transacts and proposes to transact except to the extent that the failure to  do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform the provisions hereof.

(b)        This Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Guarantor, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (1) applicable Debtor Relief Laws and (2) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
 
(c)        The  execution,  delivery and  performance  by such Guarantor of  this Guaranty  will not (1) contravene the terms of such Guarantor’s Organization Documents; (2) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien (other than Liens under the Loan Documents) under, (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Guarantor is a party or (ii) any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (3) violate any Law.

(f)        The representations and warranties applicable to such Guarantor in Article V of  the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects; and shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of any Credit Extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such  earlier date, and except that for purposes of Section 4.2 of the Credit Agreement, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section
 
6.1 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 6.        Amendments, Waivers and Consents

This Guaranty may be amended, and the observance of any term hereof may be waived (either retroactively or prospectively), pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.1 of the Credit Agreement. This Guaranty may be amended by the addition of additional Guarantors pursuant to a Guaranty  Joinder.

Each Guarantor agrees to take any and all action necessary to continue such designation in full force and effect and should such designee, appointee and agent become unavailable for this purpose for any reason, each Guarantor will forthwith irrevocably designate a new designee, appointee and agent, which shall irrevocably agree to act as such, with the powers and for purposes specified in this Section 7.2. Each Guarantor further irrevocably consents and agrees to service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents out of any of the aforesaid courts in any such action, suit or proceeding relating to any Financing Document or this  Guaranty delivered to such Guarantor in accordance with this Section 7.2 or to its then designee, appointee or agent for service. If service is made upon such designee, appointee and agent, a copy of such process, summons, notice or document shall also be provided to any Guarantor at the address specified in Section 8 by registered or certified mail, or overnight express air courier; provided that failure of the  Administrative Agent or such Secured Party to provide such copy to such Guarantor shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in such action or proceedings.  Each Guarantor  agrees that service upon such Guarantor or any such designee, appointee and agent as provided for herein shall constitute valid and effective personal service upon such Guarantor with respect to matters contemplated in this Section 7.2 and that the failure of any such designee, appointee and agent to give any notice of such service to such Guarantor shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service  or any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon.

All notices and communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing and sent (a) by facsimile if the sender on the same day sends a confirming copy of such notice by a recognized overnight delivery service (charges prepaid), or (b) by a recognized overnight delivery service (with charges prepaid).  Any such notice must be sent:
11

(1)        if to the Administrative Agent, to such address as listed in Schedule 11.2 of the Credit Agreement, or

If any Guarantor shall be required by Law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder,  (a)  such Guarantor shall make such deductions, (b) such Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and (c) if such deducted Tax is an Indemnified Tax or an Other Tax, the sum payable by such Guarantor shall be increased as much as shall be necessary so that after making all required deductions for Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes  (including deductions of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 9) the applicable recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made. As soon as practicable after any such payment of  Taxes by any Guarantor to  a Governmental Authority, such Guarantor shall furnish 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. Each Guarantor shall jointly and severally indemnify and, within ten (10) days of written demand therefor, pay the Administrative Agent and each Lender for the full  amount  of  Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 9) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or   the L/C Issuer, as appropriate, in respect of this Guaranty, the Credit Agreement or the Notes, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. A certificate as to the amount of such payment of liability delivered to the Guarantor by a Lender or the L/C Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or the L/C Issuer, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 10.      Miscellaneous
 
(a)        No remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party is intended to be exclusive of any other available remedy or remedies, but each and every such remedy shall be cumulative and shall be in addition to every other remedy given under this Guaranty now or hereafter existing at Law or in equity. No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient. In order to entitle the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to exercise any remedy reserved to it under the Guaranty, it shall not be necessary for such Administrative Agent or Secured Party to physically produce the Financing Documents in any  proceedings instituted by it or to give any notice, other than such notice as may be herein expressly required.
12

(b)        The Guarantors will pay all sums becoming due under this Guaranty by the method  and  at the address specified for such purpose in the Credit Agreement, or by such other reasonable method or   at such other address as the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties shall have from time to time specified to the Guarantors in writing for such purpose, without the presentation or surrender of this Guaranty or any Financing Documents.
 
(c)        Any provision of this Guaranty that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction  shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall (to the full extent permitted by Law) not invalidate or render unenforceable  such provision in any other jurisdiction.
 
(d)        If the whole or any part of this Guaranty shall be now or hereafter become unenforceable against any one or more of the Guarantors for any reason whatsoever or if it is not executed by any one or more of the Guarantors, this Guaranty shall nevertheless be and remain fully binding upon and  enforceable against each other Guarantor as if it had been made and delivered only by such other Guarantors.
 
(e)        This Guaranty shall be binding upon each Guarantor and its successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party and its successors and assigns whether so expressed or not, until the Termination Date.
 
(f)        This Guaranty may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be an original but all of which together shall constitute one instrument. Each counterpart may consist  of a number of copies hereof, each signed by less than all, but together signed by all, of the parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic means shall be effective as an original.
 
(g)        This Guaranty shall be construed and enforced in accordance with, and the rights of the parties shall be governed by the Law of the State of New York.
 
(h)        The Recitals are incorporated into this Guaranty by reference with the same force and effect as though set forth herein in full.
 
(i)        The Administrative Agent is authorized to enforce this Guaranty on behalf of the Secured Parties.
 
Section 11.    Keepwell
 
Each Guarantor that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time this Guaranty by any Guarantor that is not then an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act (a “ Specified  Loan Party”) or the grant of a security interest under the Loan Documents by any such Specified Loan Party, in either case, becomes effective with respect to any Swap Obligation, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each Specified Loan Party with respect to such Swap Obligation as may be needed by such Specified Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under the Loan Documents in respect of such Swap Obligation (but, in each case, only up to the maximum amount of such liability that  can  be  hereby incurred without rendering such Qualified ECP Guarantor’s obligations and undertakings under this Guaranty voidable under applicable Debtor Relief Laws, and not for  any  greater  amount).  The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full  force and effect until the Guaranteed Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Each Guarantor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.

RECITALS

A. Reference is made to the Credit  Agreement  dated  as of  April  13,  2018  (as amended, restated, supplemented, extended, refinanced or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among Adtalem Global Education Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Adtalem”), the Designated Borrowers party thereto (the “Designated Borrowers” and, together with Adtalem, the “Borrowers”), the lenders party thereto (the “Lenders”; each a “Secured Party”), and Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) providing for, among other things, revolving loans, a term loan, and letters of credit.
 
A. Each Guarantor (other than the Guaranteed Borrower) is either (i) a direct or indirect Offshore   Subsidiary  of,   or  (ii)  a  direct   or  indirect   parent   of  [insert   Designated   Borrower],   a   [_] (the “Guaranteed Borrower”).
 
B. The Credit Extensions under the Credit Agreement have benefited and will continue to benefit the Borrowers and their Subsidiaries by, among other things, providing funds to enable the Borrowers to finance working capital and capital expenditures, support the issuance of standby letters of credit, make Restricted Payments to the extent permitted in Section 7.6 of the Credit Agreement, and for other general corporate purposes.
 
C. Each of the undersigned (other than the Guaranteed Borrower), and each Person which hereafter becomes obligated pursuant to Section 6.12 of the Credit Agreement to execute a Guaranty Joinder in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A hereto (a “Guaranty Joinder”), is willing to enter into this Guaranty as security for the Obligations of the Guaranteed Borrower under the Credit Agreement and the Guaranteed Borrower is willing to enter into this Guaranty as security for the Specified Swap Contracts and Specified Cash Management Agreements of the other Guarantors.
 

NOW, THEREFORE, as required by the Credit Agreement and in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, each Guarantor does hereby covenant and agree, jointly and severally, as follows:

Section 1.        Definitions
 
Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement or as the context shall otherwise require.
 
Section 2.        Guaranty of Obligations and Credit Agreement
 
(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2(b) hereof, each Guarantor jointly and severally does hereby irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally guarantee unto  the  Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties: (1) the full and prompt payment of all Obligations of the Guaranteed Borrower including, without limitation, all principal of and interest under, all Loans (whether Base Rate Loans  or  Eurocurrency  Rate  Loans)  made  to  the  Guaranteed  Borrower,  all  L/C  Obligations  of the Guaranteed Borrower, all L/C Borrowings of the Guaranteed Borrower, all obligations under Specified Swap Contracts of the Guaranteed Borrower and the other Guarantors, all  obligations under Specified  Cash Management Agreements of the Guaranteed Borrower and the other Guarantors and all  fees, expenses and other amounts for which the Guaranteed Borrower or such other Guarantors are  liable, if  any, from time to time outstanding, as and  when such payments shall become  due  and  payable, whether  by lapse of time, upon redemption or prepayment, by extension or by acceleration or declaration or otherwise (including, to the extent legally enforceable, interest due on overdue payments of principal) in federal or other immediately available funds of the United States of America which  at  the  time  of payment or demand therefor shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, (2) the full and prompt performance and observance by the Guaranteed Borrower and the other Guarantors of each  and all of the obligations, covenants and agreements required to be performed or owed by the Guaranteed Borrower or the other Guarantors under the terms of the Loan Documents with respect to the Obligations, Specified Cash Management Agreements and Specified Swap Contracts described in clause (2) above (collectively with the Loan Documents, the “Financing Documents”), and (3) the full  and  prompt  payment, upon demand by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties, of all costs and expenses,  legal or otherwise (including Attorney Costs), if any, as shall have been expended or incurred in the protection or enforcement of any rights, privileges or liabilities in favor of the Administrative Agent or  any Secured Party under or in respect of the Guaranteed Borrower's Obligations under any Loan  Document to which the Guaranteed Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is a party or in any action in connection therewith or herewith and in each and every case irrespective of the validity, regularity, or enforcement of any of the Loan Documents or any of the terms thereof or any other like circumstance or circumstances (the payment, performance and observance of all such Obligations, covenants and agreements being herein collectively called the “Guaranteed Obligations”). Notwithstanding anything contained herein or in the other Financing Documents, no Guarantor hereunder shall be liable hereunder  for any Obligations of Adtalem or any Obligations of any Designated Borrower other than the Guaranteed Borrower.  For purposes of this Guaranty, the Guaranteed Borrower shall be a “Guarantor” in respect of  the Guaranteed Obligations owing by the other Guarantors under Specified Swap Contracts and Specified Cash Management Agreements.

(b) The liability of each Guarantor under this Guaranty shall not exceed an amount equal to a maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other liabilities of such Guarantor, contingent or otherwise, be enforceable under applicable Law and result in the performance of the obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and not constitute a fraudulent transfer, obligation or conveyance.
 
(c) All amounts payable under this Guaranty by each Guarantor shall be made in Dollars.
 

Section 3.        Guaranty of Payment and Performance
 
This is a guarantee of payment and performance and each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any right to require that any action on or in respect of any Obligation or any Financing Document be brought against the Guaranteed Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person or that resort be had to any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Financing Document or any other remedy. The Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties  may, at its option, proceed hereunder against any Guarantor in the first instance to collect monies when  due, the payment of which is guaranteed hereby, without first proceeding  against  the  Guaranteed Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person and without first resorting to any direct or indirect security for the Guaranteed Obligations or any Financing Document or any other remedy. The liability of each Guarantor hereunder shall in no way be affected or impaired by any acceptance by the  Administrative Agent or any Secured Party of any direct or indirect security for, or other guaranties of,  any debt, liability or obligation of the Guaranteed Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party or by any failure, delay, neglect or omission by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to realize upon or protect any such guarantees, debt, liability or obligation or any instruments evidencing the same or any direct or indirect security therefor or by any approval, consent, waiver, or other action taken, or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent  or  any Secured Party.


The covenants and agreements on the part of the Guarantors herein contained shall be joint and several covenants and agreements, and references to the Guarantors shall be deemed references to each of them and none of them shall be released from liability hereunder by reason of this Guaranty ceasing to be binding as a continuing security on any other of them.
 

Section 4.        General Provisions Relating to the Guaranty
 
(a) Each Guarantor hereby consents and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or any Secured Party from time to time, with or without any further notice to or assent from any other Guarantor may, without in any manner affecting the liability of any Guarantor under this Guaranty, and upon such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party may deem advisable:
 
(1) extend in whole or in part (by renewal or otherwise), modify, increase, change, compromise, release or extend the duration of the time for the  performance  or payment  of any debt, liability or obligation of the Guaranteed Borrower, any other Guarantor or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligations on the Guaranteed Obligations or under any Financing Document, or waive any Default or Event of Default with respect thereto, or waive, modify, amend or change any provision of any Financing Document;
 
(2) sell, release, surrender, modify, impair, exchange or substitute any and all property, of any nature and from whomsoever received, held by, or for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party as direct or indirect security for the payment or performance of any debt, liability or obligation of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other  Guarantor or of any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligation under any Financing Document; and/or
 
(3) settle, adjust or compromise any claim of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor against any other Person secondarily or otherwise liable for any debt, liability or obligation of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor under any Financing Document.
 

Each Guarantor hereby ratifies and confirms any such extension, renewal, change, sale, release, waiver, surrender, exchange, modification, amendment, impairment, substitution, settlement, adjustment  or compromise and agrees that the same shall be binding upon it, and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any and all defenses, counterclaims or offsets which it might or could have by reason thereof, it being understood that such Guarantor shall at all times be bound by this Guaranty and remain liable hereunder.
 
(b) Each Guarantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law:
 
(1) notice of acceptance of this Guaranty by the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties or of the creation, renewal or accrual of any liability of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor, present or future, or of the reliance of the Administrative Agent or any of the Secured Parties upon this Guaranty (it being understood that all Guaranteed Obligations described in Section 2 hereof shall conclusively be presumed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon the execution of this Guaranty); and

(2) demand of payment by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties from the Guaranteed Borrower, any other Guarantor or any other Person indebted in any manner on or for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; and
 
(3) presentment for the payment by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the  Secured Parties or any other Person of any Financing Document or any other instrument, protest thereof and notice of its dishonor to any party thereto and to such Guarantor.

The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty and the rights of the Administrative Agent to enforce such obligations by any proceedings, whether by action at law, suit in equity or otherwise, shall not be subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination, whether by reason of any claim of any character whatsoever or otherwise and shall not be subject to any defense, set-off, counterclaim (other than any compulsory counterclaim), recoupment or termination  whatsoever.
 
(c) The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder shall be binding upon such Guarantor and   its successors and assigns, and shall remain in full force and effect until the date on which all Commitments of the Lenders to the Guaranteed Borrower shall have terminated, all Letters of Credit  issued on behalf of the Guaranteed Borrower shall have expired or terminated and all Guaranteed Obligations of the Guaranteed Borrower and each other Guarantor have indefeasibly been paid in full (the “Termination Date”) and such obligations shall not be affected, modified or impaired upon the happening from time to time of any event, including, without limitation, any of the following, whether or not with notice to or the consent of any Guarantor:

(1) the genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of any of the Financing Documents or any of the terms of any thereof, the continuance of any obligation on the part of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor on or in respect of or under any Financing  Document or the power or authority or the lack of power or authority of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor to execute and deliver any Financing Document or of any Guarantor to execute and deliver this Guaranty or to perform any of its obligations hereunder or the existence or continuance of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor as a legal entity; or
 
(2) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the performance by the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor of any obligations of any kind or character whatsoever under any Financing Document; or
 
(3) any creditors’ rights, bankruptcy, receivership or other insolvency proceeding of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor or in respect of the property of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor or any merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of or winding up of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor; or
 
(4) impossibility or illegality of performance on the part of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor of its obligations under any Financing Document; or

 
(5) in respect of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor, any change of circumstances, whether or not foreseen or foreseeable, whether or not imputable to  the  Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor, or other impossibility of performance through fire, explosion, accident, labor disturbance, floods, droughts, embargoes, wars (whether or not declared), civil commotion, acts of God or the public enemy, delays or failure of suppliers or carriers, inability to obtain materials, action of any federal or state regulatory body or agency, change of law or any other causes affecting performance, or any other force majeure, whether or not beyond the control of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor and whether or not of the kind hereinbefore specified; or
 
(6) any attachment, claim, demand, charge, Lien, order, process, lien or any other happening or event or reason, similar or dissimilar to the foregoing, or any withholding or diminution at the source, by reason of any taxes, assessments, expenses, debt, obligations or liabilities of any character, foreseen or unforeseen, and whether or not valid, incurred by or  against the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor or  any claims,  demands,  charges or Liens of any nature, foreseen or unforeseen, incurred by any Guarantor, or against any sums payable in respect of or under any Financing Document, so that such sums would be rendered inadequate or would be unavailable to make the payments herein provided; or
 
(7) any order, judgment, decree, ruling or regulation (whether or not valid) of any court of any nation or of any political subdivision thereof or any  body,  agency,  department, official or administrative or regulatory agency of any thereof or any other action, happening,  event or reason whatsoever which shall delay, interfere with, hinder or prevent, or in any way adversely affect, the performance by the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor of its respective obligations under or in respect of any Financing Document; or
 
(8) the failure of any other Guarantor to receive any benefit from or as a result of its execution, delivery and performance of this Guaranty; or
 
(9) any failure or lack of diligence in collection or protection, failure in presentment or demand for payment, protest, notice of protest, notice of default and of nonpayment,  any  failure to give notice to any other Guarantor of failure of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor to keep and perform any obligation, covenant or agreement under the terms of any Financing Document or this Guaranty or failure to resort for payment to the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor or to any other guaranty or to any property, security, Liens or other rights or remedies; or
 
(10) the acceptance of any additional security or other guaranty, the advance of additional money to the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor,  amendments,  modifications, consents or waivers with respect to any Financing Document, or the sale, release, substitution or exchange of any security for any Guaranteed Obligation; or
 
(11) any change in the ownership of any shares of the Guaranteed Borrower or any Guarantor; or
 
(12) any defense whatsoever that: (i) the Guaranteed Borrower or  any  other  Guarantor might have to the payment under any Financing Document, other than payment thereof in federal or other immediately available funds, or (ii) the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor might have to the performance or observance of any of the provisions of any Financing Document, whether through the satisfaction or purported satisfaction by the Guaranteed  Borrower or any other Guarantor of its debts due to any cause such as bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, merger, consolidation, reorganization, dissolution, liquidation, winding-up or otherwise;  or

(13) any act or failure to act with regard to any Financing Document or anything  which might vary the risk of any Guarantor; or
 
(14) any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available  to,  or a discharge of any Guarantor in respect of the obligations of any Guarantor under  this  Guaranty;
 
provided that the specific enumeration of the above-mentioned acts, failures or omissions shall not be deemed to exclude any other acts, failures or omissions, though not specifically mentioned above, it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty that the obligations of each Guarantor shall be absolute,  irrevocable and unconditional and shall not be discharged, impaired or varied except  by the payment of   all Guaranteed Obligations of the Guaranteed Borrower and other Guarantors in accordance with their respective terms whenever the same shall become due and payable and all other sums due and payable  under any Financing Document, at the place specified in and all in the manner and  with  the  effect provided in the Credit Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that repeated and successive demands may be made and recoveries may be had hereunder as and when, from time to time,  the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor shall default under or in respect of the terms of any Financing Document and that notwithstanding recovery hereunder for or in respect of any given default or defaults by the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor under any Financing Document shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to each and every subsequent default.

(d) All rights of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party hereunder may be transferred or assigned at any time and shall be considered to be transferred or assigned at any time or from time to time upon the appointment of a successor to the Administrative Agent or any permitted transfer by a Lender of its rights under the Credit Agreement, whether with or without the consent of or notice to the Guarantors under this Guaranty or to the Guaranteed Borrower.
 
(e) To the extent of any payments made under this Guaranty, each Guarantor shall be subrogated to the rights of the Administrative Agent and/or the Secured Parties to whom such payment was made, but such Guarantor covenants and agrees that such right of subrogation shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior indefeasible final payment  in cash in full of all amounts due and  owing by  the Guaranteed Borrower and the other Guarantors with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations and by the Guarantors under this Guaranty, and the Guarantors shall not take any action to enforce such right of subrogation, and the Guarantors shall not accept any payment in respect of such right of subrogation, until the Termination Date. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence  at any time prior to the indefeasible payment in cash in full of all amounts payable by the Guaranteed Borrower or other Guarantors under the Financing Documents and this Guaranty, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties to be credited and applied to the amounts due or to become due with respect to all amounts payable by the Guaranteed Borrower or other Guarantors under the Financing Documents and this Guaranty, whether matured or unmatured. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it has received direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by the Financing Documents and that the waiver set forth in this paragraph (e) is knowingly made as a result of the receipt of such benefits.
 
(f) Each Guarantor agrees that, to the extent the Guaranteed Borrower,  any other Guarantor  or any other Person makes any payment under any of the Financing Documents with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, which payment or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, voided,  declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside, recovered, rescinded or is required to be retained by or repaid to  a trustee, receiver, or any other Person under any bankruptcy code, common law, or equitable cause, then and to the extent of such payment, the obligation or the part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued in full force and effect with respect to the Guarantors’ obligations hereunder, as if said payment had not been made. The liability of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be reduced or discharged, in whole or in part, by any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party from any source that is thereafter paid, returned or refunded in whole or in part by reason of the assertion of a claim of any kind relating thereto, including, but not limited to, any claim for breach of contract, breach   of warranty, preference, illegality, invalidity, or fraud asserted by any account debtor or by any other Person.

(g) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Secured Party, shall be under any obligation: (1) to marshal any assets in favor of the Guarantors or in payment of any or all of the liabilities of the Guaranteed Borrower or any other Guarantor under or in respect of the Financing Documents or the obligations of the Guarantors hereunder or (2) to pursue any other remedy that the Guarantors may  or  may not be able to pursue themselves and that  may lighten the Guarantors’  burden, any right to which  each Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
 
(h) The obligations of each Guarantor under this Guaranty rank pari passu in  right  of  payment with all other Indebtedness of such Guarantor which is not secured or which is not expressly subordinated in right of payment to any other Indebtedness of such Guarantor.
 
Section 5.        Representations and Warranties of the Guarantors

Each Guarantor represents and warrants to the Administrative Agent and each Secured Party  that:
 
(a) Such Guarantor is a corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or other legal entity duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent applicable) under the laws of its jurisdiction of organization, and is duly qualified as a foreign corporation, limited liability company, limited partnership or other similar legal entity in each jurisdiction where its ownership, lease or operation of properties or the conduct of its business requires such qualification, other than those jurisdictions as to which the failure to be so qualified or in good standing would not, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Guarantor has the power and authority to own or hold under lease the properties it purports to own or hold under lease except to the extent that the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to transact the business it  transacts  and proposes to transact except to the extent that the failure to do so would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, to execute and deliver this Guaranty and to perform the provisions hereof.
 
(b) This Guaranty has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other organizational action on the part of such Guarantor, and this Guaranty constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Guarantor enforceable against such Guarantor in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by (1) applicable Debtor Relief Laws and (2) general principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law).
 
(c) The execution, delivery and  performance by such Guarantor of  this Guaranty  will   not (1) contravene the terms of such Guarantor’s Organization Documents; (2) conflict with or result in any breach or contravention of, or the creation of any Lien (other than Liens under the Loan Documents) under, (i) any Contractual Obligation to which such Guarantor is a party or (ii) any order, injunction, writ or decree of any Governmental Authority or any arbitral award to which such Person or its property is subject; or (3) violate any Law.

(f) The representations and warranties applicable to such Guarantor in Article V of  the Credit Agreement are true and correct in all material respects; and shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date of any Credit Extension, except to the extent that such representations and warranties specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they shall be true and correct as of such  earlier date, and except that for purposes of Section 4.2 of the Credit Agreement, the representations and warranties contained in subsections (a) and (b) of Section 5.5 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) and (b), respectively, of Section 6.1 of the Credit Agreement.

If the amount of the  Agreement  Currency  so  purchased  is less than the  sum originally due  to the  Administrative  Agent  from  any Guarantor in   the Agreement Currency, such Guarantor agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or the Person to whom such obligation was  owing against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is  greater  than  the  sum originally due to the Administrative Agent in such currency, the Administrative Agent agrees to return the amount of any excess to such Guarantor (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).


Section 7.2. Service of Process Upon Guarantors. Each Guarantor hereby irrevocably designates, appoints and empowers Adtalem and its successors as the designee, appointee and agent for each Guarantor to receive, accept and acknowledge, for and on behalf of such Guarantor and its  properties, service of any and all legal process, summons, notices and documents which may be served in such action, suit or proceeding relating to this Guaranty in the case of the New York federal and state courts located in New York City, which service may be made on any such designee, appointee and agent   in accordance with legal procedures prescribed for such courts. Each Guarantor agrees to take any and all action necessary to continue such designation in full force and effect and should such designee, appointee and agent become unavailable for this purpose for any reason, each Guarantor will forthwith irrevocably designate a new designee, appointee and agent, which shall irrevocably agree to act as such, with the powers and for purposes specified in this Section 7.2.

If service is made upon such designee, appointee and agent, a copy of such process, summons, notice or document shall also be provided to any Guarantor at the address specified in Section 8 by registered or certified mail, or overnight express air courier; provided that failure of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party to provide such copy to such Guarantor shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service or any judgment rendered in such action or proceedings. Each Guarantor  agrees that service upon such Guarantor or any such designee, appointee and agent as provided for herein shall constitute valid and effective personal service upon such Guarantor with respect to matters contemplated in this Section 7.2 and that the failure of any such designee, appointee and agent to give any notice of such service to such Guarantor shall not impair or affect in any way the validity of such service  or any judgment rendered in any action or proceeding based thereon. Nothing herein shall, or shall be construed so as to, limit the right of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties to bring actions, suits  or proceedings with respect to the obligations and liabilities of any Guarantor under, or any other matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment rendered in any such action, suit or proceeding, in the courts of whatever jurisdiction in which the respective offices of the Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties may be located or assets of such Guarantor may be found or as otherwise shall to Administrative Agent or the Secured Parties seem appropriate, or to affect the right to service of process in any jurisdiction in any other manner permitted   by law.
 
Section 7.3.  Tax Indemnity.   All payments whatsoever under this Guaranty will be made by  any Guarantor free and clear of, and without liability for withholding or deduction for or on account of,   any present or future Tax imposed or levied by or on behalf of (i) its jurisdiction of organization or (ii) any jurisdiction from or through which any amount is paid by any Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty (hereinafter, a “Taxing Jurisdiction”), unless the withholding or deduction of such Tax is compelled by Law. If any deduction or withholding or payment for any tax shall at  any  time  be compelled by Law, each Guarantor will pay such additional amounts as may be necessary in order that the net amounts paid to each Secured Party pursuant to the terms of this Guaranty after such deduction or withholding (including, without limitation, any required deduction, withholding or other payment of Tax on or with respect to such additional amount) shall be not less than the amounts then due and payable  under the terms of this Guaranty.


 
In connection with the transfer of rights under the Credit Agreement by a Lender, each Guarantor will furnish the Administrative Agent and the transferee of such with copies of all  tax  forms  then required, if any, in order for payments to such Lender to be exempt from (or subject to a reduced rate of) withholding. Each Guarantor will also furnish the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, within  the period of payment permitted by applicable Law, an official receipt, if any, issued by the relevant taxation or other authorities involved for all amounts deducted or withheld as aforesaid.
 
Section 7.4. Repayment. Unless required by applicable Laws, at  no  time  shall  the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Secured Party, or have any obligation to pay to any Secured Party, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds  paid for the account of such Secured Party. If the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by any Guarantor or with respect to which any Guarantor has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 7.3, it shall pay to such Guarantor an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Guarantor under Section  7.3  with respect to the Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or Secured Party, and without interest (other than any interest paid  by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that each Guarantor, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Guarantor (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Secured Party in the event the Administrative Agent or  such Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This subsection  shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to any Guarantor or any other Person.

No delay or omission to exercise any right or power accruing upon any default, omission or failure of performance hereunder shall impair any such right or power or shall be construed to be a waiver thereof but any such right or power may be exercised from time to time and as often as may be deemed expedient.

Remedies.
 
General Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have, in addition to the rights and remedies provided herein, in the Loan Documents, in any other documents relating to the Secured Obligations, or by Law (including, but not limited to, levy of attachment, garnishment and the rights and  remedies  set forth in the UCC of the jurisdiction applicable to the affected Collateral), the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC (regardless of whether the UCC is the law of the jurisdiction where the rights and remedies are asserted and regardless of whether the UCC applies to the affected Collateral), and further, the Administrative Agent may, with or without judicial process or the aid and assistance of others, (i) enter on any premises on which any of  the Collateral may be located and, without resistance or interference by the Obligors, take possession of the Collateral, (ii) dispose of any Collateral on any such premises, (iii) require the Obligors to assemble and make available to the Administrative Agent at the expense of the Obligors any Collateral at any place and time designated by the Administrative Agent which is reasonably convenient to both parties, (iv) remove any Collateral from any such premises for the purpose of effecting sale or other disposition thereof, and/or (v) without demand and without advertisement, notice, hearing or process of law, all of which each of the Obligors hereby waives to the fullest extent permitted by Law, at any place and time or times, sell and deliver any or all Collateral held by or for it at public or private sale (which in the case of a private sale of Pledged Equity, shall be to a restricted group of purchasers who will be obligated to agree, among other things, to acquire such securities for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof), at any exchange or broker’s board or elsewhere, by one or more contracts, in one   or more parcels, for Money, upon credit or otherwise, at such prices and upon such terms as the Administrative Agent deems advisable, in its sole discretion (subject to any and all  mandatory legal requirements). Each Obligor acknowledges that any such private sale may be at  prices and  on terms less favorable to the seller than the prices and other terms which might have been obtained at a public sale and, notwithstanding the foregoing, agrees that such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and, in the case of a sale of Pledged Equity, that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to delay sale of any such securities for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer of such securities to register such securities for public sale under the Securities Act of 1933. Neither the Administrative Agent’s compliance with applicable Law nor its disclaimer of warranties relating to the Collateral shall be considered to adversely affect the commercial reasonableness of any sale. To the extent the rights of notice cannot be legally waived hereunder, each Obligor agrees that any requirement of reasonable notice shall be met if such notice, specifying the place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale is to be made, is personally served on or mailed, postage prepaid, to the Borrower in accordance with the notice provisions of Section 11.2 of the Credit Agreement at least 10 days before the time of sale or other event giving rise to the requirement of such notice. The Administrative Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. Each Obligor further acknowledges and agrees that any offer to sell any Pledged Equity which has been (i) publicly advertised on a bona fide basis in a newspaper or other publication of general circulation in the financial community of New York, New York (to the extent that such offer may be advertised without prior registration under the Securities Act of 1933), or (ii) made privately in the manner described above shall be deemed to involve a “public sale” under the UCC, notwithstanding that such sale may not  constitute a “public offering” under the Securities Act of 1933, and the Administrative Agent may, in such event, bid for the purchase of such securities. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale or other disposition of the Collateral regardless of notice having been given. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, any holder of Secured Obligations may be a purchaser at any such sale. To the extent permitted by applicable Law,  each of the  Obligors hereby waives all of its rights of redemption with respect to any such sale. Subject to the provisions of applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may postpone or cause the postponement of the sale of all or any portion of the Collateral by announcement at the time and place of such sale, and such sale may, without further notice, to the extent permitted by Law, be made at the time and place to which the sale was postponed, or the Administrative Agent may  further postpone such sale by announcement made at such time and place.

10

Remedies relating to Accounts. During the continuation of an Event of Default, whether  or not the Administrative Agent has exercised any or all of its rights and remedies hereunder, (i) each Obligor will promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent instruct all account debtors   to remit all payments in respect of Accounts to a mailing location selected by the Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have the right to enforce any Obligor’s rights  against its customers and account debtors, and the Administrative Agent or  its designee  may notify any Obligor’s customers and account debtors that the Accounts of such Obligor have been assigned to the Administrative Agent or of the Administrative Agent’s security interest  therein, and may (either in its own name or in the name of an Obligor or both) demand, collect (including without limitation by way of a lockbox arrangement), receive, take receipt for, sell, sue for, compound, settle, compromise  and give acquittance for any and all amounts due or to become   due on any Account, and, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, file any claim or take any  other action or proceeding to protect and realize upon the security interest of the holders of the Secured Obligations in the Accounts.  Each Obligor acknowledges and agrees that the Proceeds   of its Accounts remitted to or on behalf of the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions hereof shall be solely for the Administrative Agent’s own convenience and that such Obligor shall not have any right, title or interest in such Accounts or in any such other amounts except as expressly provided herein. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the holders of the Secured Obligations shall have any liability or responsibility to any Obligor for acceptance of a check, draft or other order for payment of money bearing the legend “payment in full” or words    of similar import or any other restrictive legend or endorsement or be responsible for determining the correctness of any remittance.   Furthermore,  during the  continuation of an Event  of Default, (i) the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to make test verifications of the Accounts in any manner and through any medium that it reasonably considers advisable,  and the Obligors shall furnish all such assistance and information as the Administrative Agent  may require in connection with such test verifications, (ii) upon the  Administrative  Agent’s request and at the expense of the Obligors, the Obligors shall cause independent public  accountants or others satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to furnish to the Administrative Agent reports showing reconciliations, aging and test verifications of, and trial balances for, the Accounts and (iii) the Administrative Agent in its own name or in the name of others may communicate with account debtors on the Accounts to verify with them to the Administrative Agent’s satisfaction the existence, amount and terms of any Accounts.

Deposit Accounts. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during continuation thereof, the Administrative Agent may prevent withdrawals or other dispositions of funds in Deposit Accounts maintained with the Administrative  Agent.

Access. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder,  upon  the  occurrence of an  Event of Default and during the continuance thereof, the Administrative Agent shall have the  right to enter and remain upon the various premises of the Obligors without cost or charge to the Administrative Agent, and use the same, together with materials, supplies, books and records of  the Obligors for the purpose of collecting and liquidating the Collateral, or for preparing for sale and conducting the sale of the Collateral, whether by foreclosure, auction or  otherwise.  In addition, the Administrative Agent may remove Collateral, or any part thereof, from such  premises and/or any records with respect thereto, in order to effectively collect or liquidate such Collateral.

11

Nonexclusive Nature of Remedies. Failure by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations to exercise any right, remedy or option under this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other document relating to the Secured Obligations, or as provided by Law, or any delay by the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations in exercising the same, shall not operate as a waiver of any such right, remedy or option. No waiver hereunder shall be effective unless it is in writing, signed by the party against whom such waiver is sought    to be enforced and then only to the extent specifically stated, which in the case of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations shall only be granted as provided herein. To the extent permitted by Law, neither the Administrative Agent, the holders of the Secured Obligations, nor any party acting as attorney for the Administrative Agent or the holders  of the Secured Obligations, shall be liable hereunder for any acts or omissions or for any error of judgment or mistake of fact or law other than their gross negligence or willful misconduct hereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Agreement shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy which the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations may have.
 
Retention of Collateral. In addition to the rights and remedies hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in compliance with Sections 9-620 and 9-621 of the  UCC  or  otherwise complying with the requirements of applicable Law of the relevant jurisdiction, accept or retain the Collateral in satisfaction of the Secured Obligations. Unless and until the Administrative Agent shall have provided such notices, however, the Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have retained any Collateral in satisfaction of any Secured Obligations for any reason.

Deficiency. In the event that the proceeds of any sale, collection or realization are insufficient to pay all amounts to which the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations are legally entitled, the Obligors shall be jointly and severally liable for the  deficiency, together with interest thereon at the Default Rate, together with the costs of collection and the fees, charges and disbursements of counsel. Any surplus remaining after the full payment and satisfaction of the Secured Obligations shall be returned to the Obligors or to whomsoever a court of competent jurisdiction shall determine to be entitled thereto.

Rights of the Administrative Agent.
 
Power of Attorney. In addition to other powers of attorney  contained  herein,  each Obligor hereby designates and appoints the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the holders of the Secured Obligations, and each of its designees or agents, as attorney-in-fact of such Obligor, irrevocably and with power of substitution, with authority to take any or all of the following actions upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default:

to demand, collect, settle, compromise, adjust, give discharges and releases, all as the Administrative Agent may reasonably determine;

12

 
to commence and prosecute any actions at any court for the  purposes  of  collecting any Collateral and enforcing any other right in respect thereof;

to defend, settle or compromise any action brought and, in connection therewith, give such discharge or release as the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably appropriate;

to receive, open and dispose of mail addressed to an Obligor and endorse checks, notes, drafts, acceptances, money orders, bills of lading, warehouse receipts or other instruments or documents evidencing payment, shipment or storage of the goods giving rise to the Collateral of such Obligor on behalf of and in the name of such Obligor, or securing, or relating to such Collateral;

to sell, assign, transfer, make any agreement in respect of, or otherwise deal with or exercise rights in respect of, any Collateral or the goods or services which have given rise thereto, as fully and completely as though the Administrative Agent  were  the  absolute owner thereof for all purposes;

to adjust and settle claims under any insurance policy relating thereto;

to execute and deliver all assignments, conveyances, statements, financing statements, renewal financing statements, security agreements, affidavits, notices  and other agreements, instruments and documents that the Administrative Agent may determine necessary in order to perfect and maintain the security interests and liens granted in this Agreement and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated therein;

to institute any foreclosure proceedings that the Administrative Agent may deem appropriate;
to sign and endorse any drafts, assignments, proxies, stock powers, verifications, notices and other documents relating to the Collateral;

to exchange any of the Pledged Equity or other property upon any merger, consolidation, reorganization, recapitalization or other readjustment of the issuer thereof and, in connection therewith, deposit any of the Pledged Equity with any committee, depository, transfer agent, registrar or other designated agency upon such terms as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem appropriate;
to vote for a shareholder resolution, or to sign an instrument in  writing, sanctioning the transfer of any or all of the Pledged Equity into the name of the Administrative Agent or one or more of the holders of the Secured Obligations or into the name of any transferee to whom the Pledged Equity or any part thereof may be sold pursuant to Section 7 hereof;

to pay or discharge taxes, liens, security interests or other encumbrances levied or placed on or threatened against the Collateral;

to direct any parties liable for any payment in connection with any of the Collateral to make payment of any and all monies due and to become due thereunder directly to the Administrative Agent or as the Administrative Agent shall direct;
13

to receive payment of and receipt for any and all monies, claims, and other amounts due and to become due at any time in respect of or arising out of any Collateral; and
to do and perform all such other acts and things as the Administrative Agent may reasonably deem to be necessary, proper or convenient in connection with the Collateral.

This power of attorney is a power coupled with an interest and shall be irrevocable until such   time as the Secured Obligations arising under the Loan Documents have been paid in full and the Commitments have expired or been terminated. The Administrative Agent shall be under no duty to exercise or withhold the exercise of any of the rights, powers, privileges and options expressly    or implicitly granted to the Administrative Agent in this Agreement, and shall not be liable  for  any failure to do so or any delay in doing so.  The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for   any act or omission or for any error of judgment or any mistake of fact or law in its individual capacity or its capacity as attorney-in-fact except acts or omissions resulting from its gross negligence or willful misconduct. This power of attorney is conferred  on the Administrative  Agent solely to protect, preserve and realize upon its security interest in the Collateral.

Assignment by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may from time to time assign the Secured Obligations to a successor Administrative Agent appointed in accordance with the Credit Agreement, and  such successor shall be entitled to all  of the rights and remedies   of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement in relation thereto.
 
The Administrative Agent’s Duty of Care. Other than the exercise of reasonable care to assure the safe custody of the Collateral while being held by the Administrative Agent hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability to preserve rights pertaining thereto, it being understood and agreed that the Obligors shall be responsible for preservation of all rights in the Collateral, and the Administrative Agent shall be relieved of all responsibility for the  Collateral upon surrendering it or tendering the surrender of it to the  Obligors.  The Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if the Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Administrative Agent accords its own property, which  shall be no less  than the treatment employed by a reasonable and prudent agent in the industry, it being  understood that the Administrative Agent shall not have responsibility for taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any parties with respect to any of the Collateral. In the event of a public or private sale of Collateral pursuant to Section 7 hereof, the Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility for (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Administrative Agent has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or  (ii) taking any  steps to clean, repair or otherwise prepare the Collateral for sale.
Liability with Respect to Accounts. Anything herein to the contrary  notwithstanding,  each of the Obligors shall remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to each such Account. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any holder of Secured Obligations shall have  any obligation  or liability under  any Account  (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Administrative Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations of any payment  relating to  such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Administrative Agent or any holder of Secured Obligations be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of an Obligor under or pursuant to any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by it or as to  the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to it or to which it may be entitled at any time or times.
14


Voting and Payment Rights in Respect of the Pledged Equity.
 
So long as no Event of Default shall exist, each Obligor may (A) exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Equity  of  such Obligor or any part thereof for any purpose not inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement or the Credit Agreement and (B) receive and retain any and  all  dividends (other than stock dividends and other dividends constituting Collateral which are addressed hereinabove), principal or interest paid in respect of the Pledged Equity to the extent they are allowed under the Credit Agreement; and
 
During the continuance of an Event of Default, (A) all rights of an Obligor to exercise the voting and other consensual rights which it would otherwise be entitled to exercise pursuant to clause (i)(A) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon become vested in the Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right  to  exercise such voting and other consensual rights, (B) all rights of an Obligor to receive   the dividends, principal and interest payments which it would otherwise be authorized to receive and retain pursuant to clause (i)(B) above shall cease and all such rights shall thereupon be vested in the Administrative Agent which shall then have the sole right to receive and hold as Collateral such dividends, principal and interest payments, and (C) all dividends, principal and interest payments which are received by an Obligor contrary to the provisions of clause (ii)(B) above shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Obligor, and shall be forthwith paid over to the Administrative Agent as Collateral in the exact form received, to be held by the Administrative Agent as Collateral and as further collateral security for the Secured Obligations.

Releases of Collateral. (i) If any Collateral shall be sold, transferred  or  otherwise  disposed of by any Obligor in a transaction permitted by the Credit Agreement, then the Administrative Agent, at the request and sole expense of such Obligor,  shall promptly execute  and deliver to such Obligor all releases and other documents, and take such other action, reasonably necessary for the release of the Liens created hereby or by any other Collateral Document on such Collateral. (ii) The Administrative Agent may release any of the Pledged  Equity from this Agreement or may substitute any of the Pledged Equity for other Pledged Equity without altering, varying or diminishing in any way the force, effect, lien, pledge or security interest of this Agreement as to any Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted, and this Agreement shall continue as a first priority lien on all Pledged Equity not expressly released or substituted.

Application of Proceeds. Upon the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 8.3 of the Credit Agreement, any payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of the Collateral, when received by the Administrative Agent or any holder of the Secured Obligations in Money, will be applied in reduction of the Secured Obligations in the order set forth in Section 8.3 of the Credit Agreement.

15

Successors in Interest.

Other Security. To the extent that any of the Secured Obligations are now or hereafter secured by property other than the Collateral (including, without limitation, real property and securities owned by an Obligor), or by a guarantee, endorsement or property of any other Person, then the Administrative Agent shall have the right to proceed against such other property, guarantee or endorsement upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, and the Administrative Agent shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to determine which rights, security, liens, security interests or remedies the Administrative Agent shall at  any time pursue, relinquish, subordinate, modify or take with respect thereto, without in any way modifying or affecting any of them or the Secured Obligations or any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or the holders of the Secured Obligations under this Agreement, under any other of the Loan Documents or under any other document relating to the Secured Obligations.

The obligations and undertakings of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 23 shall remain in full force and effect until the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid and performed in full. Each Grantor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each Specified Loan Party for all purposes of the Commodity Exchange Act.
